COURT OF CHANCERY, APRIL 24.'
WILKINS ts. CRISP&
Fs lI.MIOOT the VICE-CHANCELLOR pronounced a
ninq eliborare and learned jodgment in this case this
warning, after the long arguments heretofore made
diet ein, and after a litigation of seventeen years in
the case, in various shapes.
It was a question between the Executors, after-
wards made Trustees, of the Testator and his next
of kin, as to the unappropriated residue of his effects,
which in strict law would belong to the Executors,
but in equity to the next of kin, a doctrine on which
the present Lord Chancellor and Master of the Rolls
had nude different decisions, and is of universal im-
portance. His Honour, in unison with the Lord
Chancellor's decision, gave judgment for the next
of kin.
COURT OF KINO'S BENCH, APRIL 54.
TILE KING V. CORNISH.
The Judgment of the Court was prayed upon the
Defendant in this case, for a libel upon a person
named T. S. Donald. The parties, it appeared, were
Surgeons, residing in Cornwall, and the Defendant,
conceiving that the Prosecutor had uttered some ex-
pressions tending to cast discredit upon him as a pro-
fessional man, and to injure him in his practice, had
written him a letter, in which was the libel complain-
ed of ; and which was contained in the last sentence,
where the Prosecutor was described as a coward and
a rascal ; and a threat was held out by the Doren-
dant that he would botsew hip him wherever he
should meet hint.
The Defendant had stiff, red jud;;lnent to go by de-
fault; and the Coto:, r r consideration of the expense
he had seen put to, atat the distance he had to travel
to receive judgment, sentenced hinr to pay a smAll
line, and to find sezutity to keep the peace, himself
in klOO, and two sureties in £M) each.

going on in France, but the peasantry of the country
exhibit the meet determined resistance to it, as well
as great disapprobation to the Government of BONA-

great resistance, as the walls, and different parts of

plundered, and a Man has been apprehended on sus-
picion, but nothing proved against him.

NOTE FROM TIIE PLENIPOTENTIARIES OF Ills MAJESTY
TUSKING OF NAPLES TO LORD CASTLEREASIL
" Vienna,lltb February, ISIS.
44 By a Note of the 31st October last, the under-
signed Minister Plenipotentiaries of his Majesty the
ling of Naples, communicated to his Excellency
my Lord Viscount Castlereagh, Principal Secretary
of State of his Britannic Majesty for Foreign Affairs,
the first violation, on the part of the Sicilian Go-
vernment, of the Convention of Armistice of the
3d of February, 1814, by prohibiting the admission
of the Neapolitan flag into the posts of Sicily.
" Notwithstanding this, the Court of Sicily conti-
nues to maintain a hostile attitude towards the Nea-
politan Government, and it appears that it only waits
for the assistance, which, it is said, has been promised
by the other Bourbon families, to carry-war into the
kingdom of Naples. Faithful to the Convention of
the 3d February, his Majesty the King of Naples
has never given the smallest provocation to the king
of Sicily, and he did* not prohibit the admission of
the Sicilian flag into his ports, till alter the admission
of the Neapolitan flag was prohibited in the ports of
Sicily, declaring at the same time, that as soon as
this measure should be recalled, the prohibition of
the Neapolitan Government should in like manner
cease.
64 His Neapolitan Majesty, determined not to
thwart the views of his Britannic Majesty, manifested
Co his Plenipotentiaries by his Excellency my Lord
Castlereagh, will not attack Sicily. But on the other
hand, he cannot .a id demanding from the English
Government the most positive assurance that he will
prevent every hostile enterprise of the Court of Sicily
against the kingdom of Naples. And certainly, the
Britannic Government is ton just and too liberal to
pretend that the King of Naples should remain with
his arms et-would, while the Court of Sicily is pre.
paring and bringing into action all the means of
making war against him. Besides having acknow-
ledged in the last Declarations made by the English
Ministry to the House of Commons, the engagement
entered into of guaranteeing the kingdom of Naples
to his Majesty King Joachim, the Britannic Govern-
ment cannot permit him to be attacked without de-
stroying the effect of that engagement.
With the view, therefore, of conciliating all in
terests and all engagements, the Undersigned request
his Excellency my Lord Viscount Castlereagh to
have the goodness to induce his Government to intoo
pose its powerful mediation with the Court of Sicily,
to oblige it to (*.limn the stipulations of the Conven-
tion of the 3d February, regarding that Court, and
to bring it back to such relations with the Court of
Naples as may completely put an end to the renewal
of war in Europe.
" The Undersigned avail themselves of this occa-
sion to reiterate to his Excellency my Lord Viscount
Castlereagh, the expression of their very high con.
sideration. (Signed) 6"ihe Duke de CAMPOLIGARO.
" The Prince de CARIATI." ,
