LORD DUNCAN V. SIR A. AIITCRRLL.
The Court gave a judgment in this long-pending
case, which has frequently been argued, and as fre-
quently before the Public. The question was, whe-
ther Sir A. Mitchell or Lord Duncan, as heir to his
late father, the gallant Admiral, was entitled to a
certain sum of money, arising.out of the sale of cer-
tain prizes taken in 1792, during the expedition to
the coast of Holland ?—the point in dispute was,
whether Lord Duncan or the Defendant was Com-
manding Officer on the station at the time the cap-
ture was made ?—and the Court now gave judgment
in favour of The Defendant.

TILE KING V. FEAST.
The Defendant was brought up to receive judg.
ment for an assault committed on Serjeant Hardy.
of the 85th regiment, at Horsham. The defendant,
it appeared, was convicted at the last Assizes ; and
it now appeared that the assault arose out of the fol-
lowing circumstances :—The prosecutor had arrived
at Horsham with some youag recruits for his regi-
ment, and the young soldiers having drank rather
freely, a dispute arose between them and the towns-
folks, which ended in blows. The prosecutor inter-
posed, and endeavoured to restore quiet, when the
defendant, who before had been only a looker-on,
came up and assaulted the Serjeant, and struck him
several blows. The Court now sentenced him to
pay a fine of £2O, and to enter into security for his
future good behaviour, himself in ACM, and two
sureties in £5ll each.

THE BIND V. CHARLES BRYANT.
The Defendant was brought up for judgment,
convicted before Lord ELLENBOROUGH, at the Mid-
dlesex Sittings after last Term,_ of an assault upon
Mr. Newman, the keeper of the Green Man, Barnet.
The defendant is the son of the keeper of the Red
Lion there; and the reader may recollect that the'
assault arose out of a contest for the custom of tra-
vellers. The Court thcught their great object was
to keep the peace between these rlfal innkeepers and
the public, who were thus made the plunder of vic-
tory; and recommended to the parties the competi-
tion of civility and moderate charges, rather than
that of bribery to rist-boys to disregard the wishes
of the public as to which inn they should drive to.—
The defendant was adjudled to pay a fine of £2O,
and to find two securities of the peace in £l5O each
for three years.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
THING V. PENN.

This was an action for assaults committed by the
defendant upon the plaintiff, who are carrying on
business at Margate, in Kent. The cause came on
to be tried before the Lord Chief Justice of the Court
of Common Pleas, at the Sittings in London after
Hilary Teim last, when a verdict was found for the
plaintiff—damages £5O. A rule had been obtained
by the defendant to spew cause why that verdict
should not be set aside, upon an objection being made,
taken by the defendant's attorney, or his agent, at
Margate, that an omission had been made, in not af-
fixing a Serjeant's name to a copy of the replication,
which had been in fact signed and settled by Mr. Ser-
jeant Vaughan, one of the plaintiff's Counsel. But it
appeared that the defendant's Attorney had not only
received the issues for trial so long back as on the 4th
January last, and had kept them until the 9th of Fe
bruary, but had sued out two subpoenas on the part
of the defendant thereon. The rule came on for ar-
gument this day, when the Court were pleased to dis-
charge the same, and to confirm the verdict with all
costs.

MANSION HOUSE.—Yesterday Hollins ins
charged with robbing a Gentleman of the name of
Webb, in Whitechapel, on Wednesday night. The
prsecutor deposed, that he was returning home aboUt
eleven o'clock, when he was suddenly st, pped by the
prisoner, who struck him a violent blow, which nearly
deprived him of his senses, and having put his hand
in his pocket, rifled it of all the money he had got,
about ten shillings. The prisoner then ran off, but
was pursued and overtaken. He was remanded.
Q UEEN-SQU A RE. —Yesterd a y Edmond Damant, who
keeps an Office at No. 9, Oxford-street, and in
Whitechapel, for providing substitutes for the army,
appeared before Mr. FIELDING, pursuant to an infor-
mation exhibited against him by John Boyer, which
charged him with advertising and interfering to pro-
core Alexander Bryson for the 15th Royal Hussars,
without being authorised to so do by the Adjutant
General, agreeable to the provisions made in the 55th
Geo. 111. chap. 20. The defendant begged a respite
of judgment for a month, on the ground that in that
period he could produce sufficient documents to esta:
blish his authority. The Magistrate allowed him the
time stipulated.
B 'xi NO EXTRAORDINARY. CI ibb, the celebrated
miller, brought a chatge of assault against George
Matz, an element dueller (Waterman). The parties, it
appeared, had been sacrificing liberally.to the jolly god,
a few words arose, and a mill ensued, in which both
were plunged into the water. The Magistrate dis-
Lharged the warrant, and the parties left the Office
threatening each other with actions in higher Court.
Wednesday, -- Wells was charged, under very
curious circumstances, with robbing Mr. Cooper, a
master lamplighter, Dacre-street, Westminster, of a
valuable watch, about six weeks agog Cooper had
been drinking at the King's Head, Orchard street,
till he became intoxicated. Wells and another. man
kindly undertook to see him home ; but on an iving
at the corner of Cooper-street, they precipitately lett
him. He instantly missed his watch, and loudly
called after his guides give me my watch !" but in
vain ; they escaped, and nothing could be heard of
them till the compunctious visitings of a poor woman
in the Hospital, at the point of death, led to a disco-
very. Having received the Sacrament, she said she
could die happy on disclosing the particulars of this
robbery. She had lived with Wells. Bly, the officer,
took her confession. She stated the robbery, and
that the companion of Wells had gone to the East'
Indies, but Wells was to be found where she descri-
bed. The watch was sold somewhere in the City, for
Wells and his companion, by a woman named Susan
Smith. On this information Bly and Gillmoor,
officers, apprehended Wells and Smith, who were
committed for further examination.—Wells was for-
merly in the Guards, but is now a pensioner. Hi
had to his pocket a watch, and 027. in notes.

A misconception has gone abroad as to the Lite
Corn Law, which is supposed to have allowed the
import of Foreign Flour : we quote the words of the
Act in order to correct this mistake :—" And he it

further enacted, that whenever the average prices of
British Corn, so made up and published, shall re-
spectively be below the prices herein before stated,'
no foreign corn, or meal, or flour, made from any of
the respective sorts of foreign corn herein before eon.
merated, shall be allowed to be imported into the
United Kingdom, for the purpose of home consump-
tion, or taken out of warehouse for that purpose."
• Amongst the working classes of persons in town,
there is great depression and 'distress; so little em-
ployment is to be had in some branches of trade,
that no fewer than 1,500 journeymen cabinet makers
have recently been discharged from the concerns of
some of the principal upholsterers.
At Manchester, and in other manufacturing places,
there is also a great stoppage of trade; it is sup-
posed that there are, at the former place, not more
than 100 looms now at work.

In the watch-making line, as well as in the silk
trade, vast numbcr industrious persons have be-
come totally destitute, for want of any employ.
