COURT OF CHARitORY, JULY gs. •
STEWART O. RAINS. .
• Mr. ItronattDs, on behalf of the Plaintiff,. Moved
for an order to continue the injunction issued to re. .
strain Miss Raine and her brother, being the admi-
nistrators of the late Dr. Raine, Master of the Char-
ter-house School, who died intestate in March 1611,
from proceeding at law for the recover/ 01 the pe-
nalties of a certain bond, charged to have been un-
justly obtained from the plaintiff in the yen 1806,
conditioned for the payment of certain sums for each
boarder that should be *kept in the house, No. 13,
,Charterhouse-square, formerly occupied by Mrs. Car-
ver, when the pupils should exceed 40, which number
we; then reduced under SO ; and by a further cos►
tract, binding the plair.tiff, as usher, to •the further
obligation .of paying a moiety of 'such sum as he
should receive on any alienation of that house to Mr.
Raine, his executors, &c.
Mr. Betz and Mr. HoftwE followed, on the same
side, against the validity of •this bond, obtained by
undue advantage taken of the plaintiff, a poor Cler-
gyman with a wife, reduced to the necesbity of b.
coming an assistant to Dr. Raine, at a salary of MO ,
a-year, in which state he continued till the promotion
of Mr. Woolling, the usher, whom he succeeded.
Sir S. ROMILLY in reply, observed, that Mr.*Ster-
art, who complained of the want of consideration for
the bond, had obtained No. 15, in the same suture,
at a moderate annuity, free of'rent, repairs, or taxes,
with liberty to alienate No. 13, giving to Dr. Rainy,
or his representative, half the purchast-money, which
in the whole was £3OOO, a moiety of which he sow
refuses to-pay, after having-received, under his sub-
contract with• Mr. Watkinson, the present occupant,
not two guineas, as he had paid for each harder to
Dr. Raines but six guineas and a halt for each pupil
under the number of 40, and above that number seven
guineas and a half each.
The Loan CHANCELLOR, having attended as one of
the Governors, at the two first meetings on this sub-
ject, but not on the third, when the appointments
were passed, well recollected the case, and assisted
the defendant's Counsel with information thereon ;
observing, that he supposed Mr. Stewart to be pro-
moted and now done with the Charter-house ; and
was answered in the affirMative, by promotion to a
high church living.
His Lordship rose at two o'clock, to attend the Le.
Tee of the Prince Regent.—Judgment deferred.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JULY 2S.

Worldat larze.—The inimitable LONG STAYS, invented
and manufactured by MARSTON, 24 and 25, Holy-
well-street, Strand, have occasioned considerable asto-
nishment in the circle of Fashion. The unique pro-
perties of the Intention, the superlative elegant
style in which they are executed, the matchless taste
and beauty of the article, have excited general atten-
tion.—Ladies about to leave Town are requested to
notice especially an invention highly worthy of their
make.

Usrox-Hatt..—Yesterday Charlet Conconsiel was
ir charged before the sitting Magistrate with attempting
to murder his wile, by stabbing her with a small pen-
knife, on Wednesday night last. It appeared that
the circlim.tances attending this horrid transaction
were as follow :—A comp►aint was some time since
exhibited by MI s. Conconnel ag:iinst her'husband, for
ill treatment, before one of the Magistrates at this
Office, and he was, for want of bail, committed for
trial for the assault at the Se,,sions. The Sessions
finished on Wednesday, and Mrs. Conconnel,lhough
present, not appearing to prosecute, the prisoner was
discharged by proclarnatior, and • his wife and him.
!elf retired together apparently on the most aff,c-
tionate terms, and passed the evening in the same
amicable manner ; but the woman having retired to
bed first, as soon as she was umiressed, her husband
went to the side of the bed, and removing the clothes,
stabbed her with a small penknife in tile lower part
of the body. The act was SJ sudden, she had no
power to Tesist ; but her cries ala•med some other
lodgers in the house, and Friend, the night-constable
of St. Olave's, having beets informed of the circum•
t nice, went immed ately to the house, where lie
ionA the pi isoner, who had not attempted to escape,
and who quietly allowed himself to be secured and
searched ; and, on the penknife bring produced, 2C-
k:wwledgd vt hat he had done, but assigned rio tea-
son liar his conduct. The pc:kw woman was imme-
diately conveyed to Guy's Hospit .1, `!there she lies
without hopes of recovery.—The -prisoner was com-
mitted forge-examination, when it shall have been
ascertained whether the wound is mortal or not.

by a ne44hbour who resided near the. prisoner in Fal-
conbury-cvurt, Sc. Ann's, with an assault.—lt ap-
peared, that the cries and
smoaaings of the children
had le,i
,to the interference of the neighbours, who
entered. the ..4ouse and found them in a most pitiable
state. The prisoner lend been beating them intrnerci.
'WIT with a stick, with all his strength, until their
bodies presented a spectacle shocking to behold. On
the ;med. ranee of the woman who charged him, he
struck her, and on a warrant being procured he was
apprehended. Drunkenness was alleged as the cause
of the defendant's barbarity. He was committed,
and the children were placed under the care' of the
Parish Officers,

A. dactag.robb.vry and outrage was committed on
