'LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KIN BENCH. APRIL 24.
CRIMINAL INTORMAYinto.
Mr. GLUOw moved for leave to file a criminal in-
formation againll a perfon of the name of Blunt,
who was called Count Blunt, and fnmetimes Count
Von Blunt. Yelterday. he obferved, he had remarked
it was a quellion, whether a man (hould be allowed
to profecute a civil fuit in the Admiralty Courts ?
today it was, whether a man &mid venture to fore-
tide a mortgage without the penalty of fighting a
duel? The perfon on whole behalf he moved was a
gentleman of the county of Suffer, who, by the
death of a near relative, fucceeded to a great deal of
property ; among others, to a mortgage on the elate
of Mr. Blnnt's father. He walled to call in the
mortgage, but he gave the mnrtgager repeated ac
commodation. At lall, he was under the necellity of
filing a bill of foreclufure in Chancery. Upon that
occafion, he received a letter from Mr. Blunt from
Hamburgh, which ran nearly in the following terms:
Sza-•-I certainly do not taped the manners of a gentlemen
from one who has been taken from the plough; your urbanity
idea been evinced in the brutal manner you treated my father I
from this condudt, I ant compelled to tell you, that you arc a
pottroon. a koundrel, and a coward, and the waft grovelling•
teptik tfiat ever crept upon 'the earth ; 1 Min you will come
over hers (to Hamburgh) which is thslisitlll* ilk ohs it
to fettle the bußads, gad bring your friend aleageilitywa."
This letter was,fent by Mr. Blom from Hams
burgh, where be now refides, to his folicitor, with
esprefs direaions to deliver it to the Profecutor..
The letter being fealed, that gentleman, of courfe,
nal knowing the contents, delivered it accordingly.
After Tome obfervations from the Learned Conn-
ie', on the dangerous confequences of the prailice of
duelling, he concluded by exprefllng his hope, that
their LordOsips would think their interference abfo
lately amenity.
Mr: Jnltiee Lewitt:act fuggened, that the heft
node of proceeding would be, by indictment, lo as
to run it up to ass outlawry, otherwife it might be
dillicult to gat the rule ferved:
•Mr. Gaiaow anfwered, that he would take the
rule, for an information, and as his Learned Friend,
Mr.,,Wood, had done in a fimilar cafe, move to en
large it every Term, till he (hould obtain his object,
The Court granted a role to (flew caufe.
Till I'IMIRSIT CANAL. COMPANY O. 11./CLID SHAY?.
Mr. JARYL moved for a new trial in this cafe.—
The anion was brought to recover certain additional
tonnage upon goods carried by this Canal, and the
queftion was, whether, by the Aft of Parliament,
or as a Body Corporate, they had a right to make
(Lich additional charge ?
This Canal was divided iatn two parts, between
which there was a declivity of .6 feet, and in order
to remedy this, a ftaircafe of locks was firft pre-
poled; then Come other methods; when, after five
ycars, fend immesh espence, all thefe erojeas failed,
and the Company were compelled to tau a circuitous
rout in order to have an inclined plane. Before this
was completed, the goods were unfhipped, conveyed
down the declivity by windlaffes, with the 'Mance
of men, ropes, tackle, dec. for which the additional
charge of threepence per ton, per mile,, was made ;
and it was to try their right to do fe this *Won was
brought. A radio was agreed to be taken for the
Plaintiff, fobft to the opinion of the Court.
A rule to (hew caufe was granted.
TIIIR RING O. JOHN MINITHOLPS.
Mr. Serjeant Harwoon moved to arrelt the judg
meat in this cafe. The defendant had been found
guilty at the left York Aflizes upon a Criminal In-
formation, containing a variety of counts, charging
him with having offered a bribe to one John Fofter,
his tenant, and Affelfor under the Income Tax Aft,
to make a falfe return of the annual amount of his
rent, and to adefs him for the fame at a lets turn than
he was bound to pay, with intent to defraud our
Lord the King of his duties. Some of the counts
were for foliciting him so make a falfe affelfment,
without the offer of a bribe. To limb counts there
was no evidence upon the trial ; yet the Jury found
a general verdict upon all the counts. The Learned
serjeaot flated 'about fifteen objeaians, molt of them
of In very frivolous a nature, that Lord EL:Am ao-
sou H hinted he was walling the time of the Court,
and intimated that he was endeavouring to (train the
conftruaion of the AO, in order to defeat the prefent
information. His Lordfhfp added, that the objet
lions werao numerous, that it was impoffible to take
coma notes of them I and he therefore withed him
to Rate them diftinaly on paper, and leave them
with the Judges.—The hit and moll important ob-
jettion merits particular notice. It went to the re.
-ularity of the appointment of she office of Affeffor.
It appeared that the Income Tax Aft, which paged
m the asci•year of.the King, referred to the office of
Affeffor as one which was to be regulated by a fubfe-
"men' Aft of Parliament. That Aft was one to
tronfolidate certain dutiess and was then depending
in Parliament, and was intended to be pallid after
the Property Aft : but it to happened that it outran
the Property Mt. The Property Act was retarded
in its progrefs by various caufes ; and the Confoli•
dating Duties Aft palled before the Property Bill
had gone through the Houk of Commons. Thus
the Property Aft referred to the appointment of Af-
fans by a firbfequent Aft, when in fact the Aft
which was intended to regulate them palled &R.—
Lord ELLEN boauvc H fumed to think the objeainn
van importance. His Lordfbip thought the point
..) material, that he ordered this motion to (land the
ittt ansong the uew trials, in order that it might be
argued without delay ; and detired that it fhould be
mentioned to the Attorney General, and application
. made tbrongh the proper channel to Rarliament, in
order to rcaify the evil.
