LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF ICING's BENCH, JUNB z 6.
THI ILING V. LORD 'IDILLIUS lIRRUCLIIC.
This was a Rule calling upon the Noble Defen-
dant to thew caufe why a criminal information ,
fhould not be filed againft him for having intuited,
Sir John Carter, Mayor of Portfmouth.
It now appeared that his Lordfhip had, in the
handfomeft manner, apoloized for his behaviour;
and Mr. Erfkine, Counfel for the Profecution, after
reading the letter his Lordfhip had written to Sir
John Carter, contented that the Rule fhould be dif-
charged.—Rule difcbarged upon payment of colts.
Jona 17.—Mr. Grass Paid, he was inftrueed to
make an application to the Court on behalf of the
Bakers of Bath, who were nearly ruined, in con-
fequence of the mode of proceeding adopted by
the Mayor and Juftices of that city in fixins the
alfize if bread. By the sift of Geo. 11. It was
enafted, that the prices of corn than, from time to
time, be given in by the mealweighers : from thefe
returns the Mayor and Aldermen, or the higheft
Magiftrate in the town, fhall fix the price of bread.
It is alto further enadted, that fuch price limit be
entered in a book kept for'the purpofe, to which
book the Bakers fisall have free accefs, and be at
liberty to offer any objedions they might have to
the affize. The Mayor and Aldermen have re-
ceived the returns from Devizes and Warminfter
markets, which markets are held on Saturdays ;
they fend the price of the affize to the Printer, and
it is publifbed on the Monday following, without
the Bakers having any opportunity to objet to the
affize. There is no return made upon oath, nor
is any entry made in the book, as the Aift direits.
Mr. Grass Laid, he did not with to prefs with any
degree of harfhnefs againft thefe Gentlemen, and
fhould therefore move for a rule to Phew caufe why
a mandamus fhould not be direaed, commanding
them to make the returns as pointed out by the
Statute, and alto to enter in a book, which the
Bakers fbould have accefs to, the affize-price.
Lord Kzeroa obferved, It was a very proper
application, and defired Mr. Gibbs to take a rule.
In the matter of Bea am. v. the Marquis of Dos-
MCGAL, it was contented to by the Counfel on both
fides, to refer the adjuftment of the differences to
the Matter, from whole report the bufmefs is to be
finally fettled. It is an anion on a poll obit bond
for a furs of 46,0001.
Mr. LITTLIDALI moved for a writ of certiorari
to remove the trial of an indi&ment, the Kin° v.
Dixon aid others, from Cumberland. It is an ac-
tion againft the Overfeers for the maintenance of
an illegitimate child. The ground upon which
the writ was moved for is, that the trial would
come on before the Jullices who made the order
for the payment of the money. The Court grant-

for mosey to pay the workmen. Da this mefen-

worth. he perceived a man fitting upon a gate,
with his coat said "raincoat of, and his cravat tied
all over his face; who, on his approach, jumped
from the gate, and demanded his money. The
labourer declared that he was a poor man, and
had no money about him. The thief replied, he
knew better, and (wore that be would have it,
and immediately [napped a OW at him, which
luckily miffed fire. This gave the trufty melfen-
ger-courage; and thinking his breeches pocket not

In a Liverpool paper there appears an advertife-
mein, by authority of the' church wardens and

on the parifb. In this lift there are fix taylors and
five fhoemakers. In the defcription of the runa-
ways there is only one of a ruddy complexion, and
he is a hlacifyititb. The parifh offers a guinea for
apprehending any one of them, but none of the
wives offer a penny.

flea his deliverance. At this inliant, when in the
ad of jumping after the drowning maniac, he rib-
keyed a fellow !teal and run off with his pocket-
book, which contained nearly the whplc of his pro-
Poly. His own imminent danger banilhed tor'
the ialtant the secolltaion of all other, and he pur-
fued and (cited the robber ; but the (tilted viaim
to a b.opelefkpaZon perifhed. The thief is lodged
in gaol to await the puniihment due to his offence.
