LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT Or KING'. BENCH, APRIL ast.
Mr. Genoa' moved for a Rule to thew cattle,
why a criminal information fhonld not be filed againa
'Sir William Manners, Bart. for affaulting and ill-
treating -- Turner, Efq. a Gentleman of confi-
derabk property, and a Magiftrate of Linculnthire.
It appeared by Mr. Turner's affidavits, that, in eon-
fequence of a recent eoelolure Aft, a parcel of land
had been fel, out as his allotment, upon which were
growing a number of afh trees. Thefe trees Mr. T.
underftood were to be left (landing, but Sir William
Manners, who i, Lord paramount of the manor, Pet
his fervants to work, and felled a confiderable num-
ber of them. Mr. T. complained to the workmen,
who brought Sir William to defend them in what
they were doing. Sir William and Mr. Turner had
force words upon the bolinefs, which ended in the
fortner's horfe whipping the latter. This was con.
fidered loch an outrage committed upon a Magill' ate
in the face of the county, that Mr. Turner had de-
termined on Peeking legal redrefs. The Court
granted a Rule to Phew caufe.
Tar ICING e. 3A51113011. CERT.
This was a Rule obtained lait Term, for filing a
criminal information againft the defendant, an at-
torney at York, for caufing a libellous advertife.
meta of and concerning - Yarborough, Efq.
Lord of the manor of Ilidliagham, to be iaferted
in the York Newfpaper. Mr. PAU, this day, (hew-
ed caufe againfi this Rule's being made abfolute, but
the defendant having failed to Ale his affidavits in
reply in time, the Court could not take cognizance
of any excufe he walled to put upon his conduit. It
appeared, however, that Mr. Jimiefon had ordered
a dinner to be dreffed for himfelf aqd friends, at a
public-hoofs in Hallingharu, kept by a perfnn of the
name of Gco,coff. When he repaired to the place,
ezpeling to find the accommodation he had order-
ed, the mailer of the hods informed him that a
perfon, whom he underßood to be Mr. Yarborough,
had counter-ordered the. dinner. and that he durft•
not difohlige.him. When Mr. J. kft the boufe, he
found his itirrup-leathers bad been cut. and it was
at great hazard he reached his home. The next day
he caufed the affair to be inferred in the Newfpaper,
and infinuating that he had reafon to fufpeet Mr.
Yarborough as concerned in the attempt upon his
perfossal fafety, he offered ten guineas reward to any
one who would give information concerning the con-
(piracy. There being no pofitive proof that Mr.
Yarborough cut the flirrup leathers, or that he was
concerned re annoying Mr. Jamiefon, the Coorror-
dered the Rule to be made abfolute.
Lord ELLSIIIOS,OOGH Paid, the conduit of the de-
fendant was either that of a lunatic, or of a man
harbouring a malignant fpirit againft Mr. Yarbo-
rough. If the former, he ought to be placed in pri-
vate cuftody ; and, if the latter, he was a fit °lake
of legal interference.
Some further converfation took place, in which it
was fuggefied that the defendant was willing to apo
I ogize for bin conduit, when the Court obfcrved, that
if that apology was a fit and proper one, they had
dc..fht Mr. Yarborough would accept it, and they
t:l•Juld hear no more of it.

MAY 13.
TAY RING V STIPN[IIS AND ASINFAT.
Mr. DALLAS moved to amend the judgment in Chit
cafe. Some time ago, the Defendants, who had been
~tlicers in the Eaft India Company's fervice, had been
convifled of taking a bribe, and extort:rig money to
the amount of 85,000 rupees, for which the Court
feotenced.thern to two years imprifonment, and to
pay a fine equal to the Turn they had In extorted. It
had been previoufly agreed, that the fine was to be
calculated at the current price of the r upee, which was
then (fated to be about as. 6d. and the fine, under filch
calculation, amounted to 10,6251. ; but fince that
time, it appeared that the rupee was no more than
as. ald4which reduced the fine to 93831. and that fum
was ready to be paid. The Court had direeted the
whole penal', toga tu.thi informer ; and by 33 Geo.
111. chip. v. the.aß It4ipcompany were pi event-
zd from relenting or compost:amends judgment.--
As the Company bad no Oblation to do it, with the
'car: of the Cimit; bitinfted their Lordthips would
tee rules

Lord Et.t.snaoantion faid,that the judettent mull
follow the Verdi 1, and could not be altered ; bat the
Attorney General, who had a difcretionary power,
might enter fausrailiun upon the record for that tam,
by difchar ging part of the order, upon notice for that
purpore.—The rule was accordingly drawn up to that
effeel.

THE KING V. IC/SWILL.
This was a rule for a criminal information againft
the Defendant, for making a fate return to a 11lan
dam:, commanding him to give up the books belong
ing to the Corporation for Paving and Lighting the
town of Gofport, to Mr. Partions, who had been cleft-
ed Clerk and Treafurer of that Corporation.
Mr. DAM/111 came to thew cattle against this rule,
ani contended that a criminal information was not
the mode of proceeding, but it fhould be by civil ac-
tion, for making a falfe return.
Mr. GASOLEY, on the other hand, chimed, that
he would be fatisfied with any thing that fhould pa-
cify the people of Gofport, who were much inrerefied
in this queftion. He propofed that there fhould be
iffues to try the merits of Mr. Parfons's elettion, or
that Gentleman mould refign his office, if the Defen-
dant would only do that duty which be refufes to
perform.
Mr. Datertaa not being fo inftrufted, dealined this
propofition ; and the Court, confidering it a cafe in
which the intereft of the public was much involved,
made the rule for a criminal information abfolute.

MAY 14.
•
7111 ICING V. COLONEL
This was a conditional rule obtained by Mr. Gait-
sow, for a criminal information againft the Defen-
dant, for writing and publifhing a grofs, fcandalous,
and malicious libel again(!the Right Hon. John Sul-
livan, in a Pamphlet entitled " An Addrels to the
Public," which contains, as well as the libel, a yin.
dication of General Pition's conduct, while Cover.
nor of Trinidad.
Mr. Serjeant BELT, Mr. MARAYATT, and Mr.
GURNEY, this day fhewed Cade againft the Rule, and
Hated that the Libel in queftion was grounded on an
affidavit and letter of Dr. Lynch, a tnoff refpedable
phyfician, nfiding at Trinidad, which affidavit was
now before the Privy Council, and believed by the
Defendant to be true. They therefore contended,
that as he had good reafon to believe the fads to be
true, the Court would not think it necelTary to grant
an information, bin fuller the party to have his re-
medy by indictment. All they then requefted was,
that the Rule might be enlarged, in order to give
the Defendant an opportunity of procuring the necef.
fary affidavits from Trinidad.
The Court ware unanimoufly of opinion, that any
affidavits could not avail them. The Defendant had
blended molt fcandalous, Fro(' and malicious expref-
fions in his flatement, which no affidavit could pof
,fibly warrant or juflify. Nor did their Lordfbips
think that there was any principle whatever by which
they might enlarge the Rule ; and therefore, under
all the circumflances, they felt themfelves joftified in
granting the criminal information.—Rule abfolute.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, APRIL 29.
HODGSON D. MALCOLM.
This was an action againft the Underwriters, on a
policy olinfurance, tried before the Lord Chief juf-
tice, in the Sittings after fall Term, at Guildhall.—
The Plaintiff, in the opinion of the Learned Judge,
not being able to make out his cafe, was Nonfuited.
Serjeant BAYLEy this day moved the Court for a
rule to thew caufe why the nonfuit should not be let
afide, and a verdict entered for the Plaintiff, wish
tool. damages. The fads of the cafe were limply
thefe : The velTel inbred lay in Plymouth harbour,
and the Captain thinking it neceffary to move• her
from one part of the harbour to another, ordered his
crew to weigh the anchor ; this was done, but while
the men were calling out the cables, in order to haul
to the Chip, a King's boat came up, and preffed them
all. The Captain requelled the officer of the prefs
gang to allow the men to can out the cables, as the
Chip would otherwife go on Chore; but he pofiti rely
refaced it, and took the men on board the tender.—
The veffel, in confequence, drifted with the tide, and
was Branded in a Ilion time afterwards ' to recover
damage for which the action was brought.
The LORD CHIRF JOsTICS laid, that the Chip being
infured againft the perils of navigation, it mull be
argued, that this was a lots within the meaning of the
policy, which be did not think could be done with
effed.
Serjeant BAYLOR' fubmitted, that it was fuch a loft.
The accident happened by the mikonduet of perfons
againft whom the infured had no remedy • and he
therefore conceived he had a right to confider the
immediate operation of the water on the veffel, as the
caufe of the lots.
The Court granted the rule Nifi ; but, at the fame
time, expreffed confiderable doubt, is could ever
be made abfolute.
ciaour tl. WILTDIIII.
Serjeant Besr moved for a conditional rule to let
afide the verdict obtained by the Plaintiff in this cafe.
It was an affirm for an alTault, tried in Kent, before
the Lord Chief Baron. The Plaintiff was Boatfwain
on board an Balt Indiaman, and the Defendant an
officer in the fame (hip. A quantity of fpirits bar-
ing been brought fiercely into the chip, the crew got
intoxicated, and when the Defendant remonftrated
with them, and particularly with the Plaintiff, for
behaving in a dif orderly and mutinous manner ;
Gi-
roux, who was much in liquor, anfwercd him with
ft much infolence, that the Defendant nruck him on
the arm with a cutlafs. The Plaintiff immediately
exclaimed, " that is all I wanted ; now I'll make
you pay col." The Learned Judge was of opinion
at the trial that the drunken and mutinous condo&
of the Plaintiff was a fuflicicnt jollification for the De.
fendant. The Jor; , however, tound a verdict for the
Plaintiff, wits is. damages.
'lite Court, on tltcfe grounds, granted a conditional I
tole.

They continue to direa their Mulles to the treatment and care
of Venereal Complaints, and that derangement of the fyilena
which lathe confequence of a deftruaive habit. ft is a melancholy
truth that the Indulgence in this folitary vice brings on thole Del-
deuces and Debilities which frequently prevent and embitter the
I Matrimonial State, and impedes by anticipation upon its unhappy
victims all the infirmities of old age. To filch patens it mull be

adopted by the general Praaltioner in the cure of Venereal Corn-

Aga MEMBER of the ROYAL COLLEGE of SURGEONS,
I ground my pretenfions on regularity of education, and poffeffing
every privilege to practice, I fed myfelf entitled to that confidence
with which I have hitherto been fo liberally honoured.
In the Brit fenfations of local wt aknefs, early application torn
prevent the calamity of a debilitated frame; but where thefufferer,
from a conk-bands of the unmanlinefa of the vice which eauksl •
his misfortune, la fearful of the contempt or ceofure of his family
phyacian, and broods over his infirmity with careful concealment,
it muff be fatisfaCtory for him to be allured not only of capabilLy
of treatment but alto of the molt inviolahle fecrocy.

danger or Meets ; in the molt complicated cafes it la the acquire-
ment of exclafive experience in thin line to circa a We, certalu,

I offer the advantage of this experience to thofe of either fez who
are ended with any kind of DEBILITY, of any fymptonis of
VENEREAL INFECTION, and In all cafes the terms of remu-
aeration are fisted on the Brlt interview.

Patients in the country are minded to Indere a Bank note, and
