LBW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF RING'S BENCH, JUNE 16.
KING W. lINLCIR.
Our readers will recoil/Et that we have leveret times r
had occafion to mention this cafe during the prefent
Term.
Mr. Jr av ts now moved to make the Rule for while
he had applied, abfolute.
The ATI-bsr-16Y GINERAL and Mr. GARIVIW thew.
ed cattle againli this Rule, the objet of which wa.,
that a writ of Marsdunaut fhould be direet9ed to the D-
efendant, calling himfclf the Mayor of Saltafh, to
deliver up what is called the Conftitution Bock, con.
taining an account of the proceedings of that Corpo-
ration to Mr. Barlow, the Town Clerk. The affida-
vit of the latter Hated, that on the sBth December
WI, he made application to Mr. Buller, in the Guild
of the Town, for the delivery of fuch book, and that
tl.is Gentleman refuted to refign it.
An affidavit was produced from Mr. Buller, flat-
ting, that he had been frequently Mayor of the place,
and that in 1800, he was elated Recorder—and fur-
ther, that the book of the Contlitntion had always
been delivered to him when he was fo eleled Mayor,
and that he had uniformly furrendered it to his toc-
catas in that office ; and he added, that the Mayor
had always had the cuftody of it.
Lord Ext.seioanuc Did the Town Clerk de.
rnand it to retain it permanently in his cuftody ?"
Mr. Jetty's." No, my Lord, merely to make the i
entries, and fo it appears upon the affidavits."
The Counfel, refilling the rule, Paid that the objal
of Barlow was probably to keep the book in his pa-
feffion, or to give it over to Mr. Gaborean, who pre-
tended to be the prefent Mayor—and this was the
more likely, fence the very fame perfon, Mr Barlow,
had before applied to the Court, to order the book to
be put into the hands of Gaborean, and not fueceld-*
ing in that experiment, he had recourfe to this new
contrivance. Among the entries lie intended to make
when he obtained the book, was the elalion of this
intruder. He laid, is lam the Town Clerk. You
ate an ufurper of the office of Mayor—Mr. Gaborean
is the legal Mayor, and I demand the cullody tithe
book."
Mr. isevis, in fopport of the rule, obferveci, that
the fmgle objet of Mr. Barlow was, to obtain the
temporary polleflion of the book, that he might make
in it the entries it was his duty to introduce.
Lord EL N aoaouGH ..44 Do you with to have the
rule enlarged ?"
Mr. Pains laid, that this would not anfwer the
purpofe of the patty for whom he appeared. The
ether fade had attempted to prejudice his client, by
interpofing faits not fubtlantiated by the affidavits.
It was an endeavour on the part of Mr. Buller to
unite in his own perfon two offices perfally diftinet,
the one ministerial and the other judicial, which he
could not legally cornet. The Corporation of Sal
tath had a right to fee that the entries were dnly
fated, and that they were made by the proper offi
cer ; and, by the condo& of Mr. Buller, they were
precluded from difcharging this duty. The Learned
Counfel laid he was content that his client fhould be
bound to deliver the book into the hands of the
Mayor, as loon as the entries were made.
Lord ELLENW/NOGG/Igi You might have laid, in
a few words, that the elation of A. B. is neceflary to
be entered ; but here, upon the affidavits, there is no-
thing but generality, and we do not know but you
may ino-nd to infert fomething improper ;—you are
the regular officer ; let us know the particular duty
you want to perform; you mutt not !brood yourfelf
under thefe generalities."
Mr. Jlevis—" Perhaps you will think it right to
dire°, that Mr. Buller should not make entries in the

PICKMAN V. LOBSOS.

Mr. NO LAN moved, that the Defendant be conti-
nued in cultody, notwithflanding an order for his
difcharge on the Infolvent Debtors' Ad, this morn-
ing ; on the ground that a falfe affidavit had been
made of the fervice of the notice of the Plaintiff,
which was the reafon why the Priihner's difcharge
was not oppofed this morning, a difcharge to which
he was not entitled by law, and which he had endea•
voured in vain to obtain more than once in this court,
and once at the Surrey Seffions, but he was always
remanded, and would always be, unlefs he could
fucceed by furprize as he now attempted to dn. My
Lord Chief Juilice would loon recoiled the cafe of
this Defendant, when reminded that this was the
perfon who had turned his wife out of doors and
cohabited with A fervant girl, whom be had the har-
dihood to call as a witnefs, fupport his defence to
an action for neceffaries to his wife after he had ►urned
her out of doors; but the Jury difiegarded her evi-
dence, and found a verdict for the Plaintiff to the
amount of his demand ; and sow the defendant tried
to get rid of the whole cafe, by taking the benefit of
the Infolvent Ad. _ _ _

Lord ELLEssoan•ic H immediately recolleaed the
whole of the cafe, and faid it was an atrocious one.

The. Court granted a Ruk to thew caufe before
sme of the Judges at Chambers.

JUNE 18.-MARY BROOKS V. •-•••••• HICKS, 11112.1
The 'plaintiff is tht keeper of a lodging-houle in
Margaret-ltreet, Cavendith fquare. The defendant
is a gentleman of fortune.
Mr. PARKE for the former faid, that in this cafe
he addreffed the Jury under confiderable embarraff-
ment, becaufe in the prefent inflance he had to op-
pole a gentleman, as defendant, who was well known
to him, and who had formerly been engaged in his
own profetlion. This difficulty was however leffened,
when he,refleaed that a clearer cafe than the prefent
never came before a Jury, and it was where a female
of upwards of 63 years old had to complain of a
molt cruel affault. The defendant was a man of
large property, in the North of Eagland, and had
come to London to fpend the winter, and hired lodg
ipgs at the bottle of the plaintiff. On the 7th of
February laft, having l,r.d a previous difpute with his
fervant, he called for the plaintiff, and laid that he
wanted to (peak with her; the obeyed his fummons,
and took occalion to remark, that the did not ap
prove of the conduit of the defendant, who had,
during her abfcece, introduced a female of bad cha-
rafter into her finale. The defendant, who permit.
ted his paffion to get the better of his difcs etion, im-
mediately [hula the plaintiff out of the room, cur
her arm againft the wall, and in the violence of his
rage, that the plaintiff's n'own into the door, and
tome time elapfe4 before he would permit her to ex-
tricate her telf This was not the only injury the had
to coripla n of; for on the t ith of February, he in•
filltd .bat a quantity of hams thould be placed in a
part of the houfe unappropriated to his ufe, and when
the reatentlrated with him, he caught hold of both
her (boulders, and grazed her cheek with a large
flick he held in his hand. Not yet fatisfied, he threw
her upon her back on the (lone floor of the kitchen,
where the was compelled toremain until perfuns came
to her affiflan e. In anfwer to this charge, what bad
the defendant pleaded ? He bad replied, as to the
fit ft affault, hat tiling no greater degree of violence
than was rec.ffary, he gently laid his hands upon her
to remove her from his apartment, or, in the language
of the law, molliter manes impofisit. As to the fecond
outrage, the anfwer he had given was, that the plain-
tiff commirei the firft affault. The jury would
determine he .v much foundation there was for loch
an affertion, ar.d would give the plaintiff thole da-
mages which the jullice of her cafe deinanded.
Jane Roberts depoled to this Ilatement.
Mr. MARROW, for the defendant, did not perceive
the neceffity which compelled his Learned Friend, in
this cafe, to introduce a hitiory of the life, charaner,
and circumllances of the defendant. The great fob-
jea of difpute between the parties was not of loch
importance, as to oblige the plaintiff to call Mr.
Hicks to an account for his conclua, in introducing
a lady into her honk, who was feen in the defendant's
apartment late at night, and early the next morning.
In truth, the plaintiff did prefume to take the defen-
dant very fharply to talk for his conduet, and was
moll eloquent in difplaying her ow n love of virtue,
by attacking the vices of others. It happened, that,
with age, the infirmities of the body increafed, the
limbs became ftiff, and the finews, in youth fo vigo.
rout and elattic, loft their pliability. There was,
however, one member of the frame, which, in the
female fez, in proportion to the bodily infirmity is
other refpeas, feemed to increafe in its aaivity ; he
meant the tongue ; and the plaintiff feemed to pai-
l& that advantage in the highelt perfeaion. As to
the complaint of an injury (attained upon the 7th of
February, the Jury would be aware that the defen-
dant was compelled to exert fume degree of violence
to relieve himfelf of the tornient he was undergoing,
and was extremely glad when he had got the door
between himfelf and the plaintiff. The Learned
Counfel would prove molt dittinaly, that upon the
tth of the fame month the firft affault was commit-.
ted by the plaintiff, who exerted an unwarrantable
degree of violence to prevent the defendant from
putting his hams into her cellar.
James Corder and Thomas Bans proved that the
defendant had never, to their knowledge, touched
the plaintiff, but that the threw herself upon the
kitchen floor.
After a few oblervations from the Beath, a verdilt
was found for the plaintiff-3ot.

JUNE 1:47.-THE RING v. RICHARD-PAIN.
This was a rule, calling on the Defendants to thew
caufe why an information in the nature of quo war-
rant° thould not be ifTned againft him, to thew by
what authority he claimed to be a capital Burgefs of
the borough of Banbury, it being contended that he
was not regularly admitted into that office, although •
he had voted in virtue of it at the late general elettion.
Mr. GARROW (hewed caufe againtt this rule, and
hid, that he had advifed his client not to file any af-
fidavit to- defend his tight, becaufe the affidavit by
which that right had been attacked was defettive, in
as much as it went no further than to information and
belief of the deponent ; betides which, his client was
regularly admitted according to the conititution of
the borough.
Mr. Serjeant BAILEY was on the fame fide as Mr.
GAREOW, and obferved, that the queffion in this cafe
really was, whether it was necelfary there (hould be
a majcrity of the integral parts of this borough, fuch
as a majority of the Aldermen, and a majority of the
capital Btirgetfes, ()mid be prefent, and afTenting to
the admiffion ; or, that a majority of the Corporation
would be fufficient ? The latter was fufficient, as the
Learned Serjeant contended.
The Court held, that as there was a queffion raifed
upon the conflration of the charter, it mull go be
fore a Jury to decide upon the fait. The Court was
bound by the authority of the cafe of the King and
Belltinger, to fend it to a ti ial.—Rule abfolute. •
WILIFORD v. TODD!.
This was a cafe upon the Poll Horfe duty ; and
the queftion was, whether the Defendant was liable
to that duty under the circumflances with which he
bad let a horfe to hire from Bath to Bradford. It had
been argued at great length and with mach learning
by the Attorney General, f• r the Crown, and Mr.
Fuller, for the Defendant, and the Court took time
to confider of its judgment. This day judgment was
delivered by
My LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, who Paid—" Mr. At-

Rorim NAVAL Aszlun

Every friend to the Britifh Navy will learn with
pleafure, that this additional monument of national
gratitude to the brave, who have fallen in their
country's caufe, is at length upon the eve of com-
pletion, and that this moll clearable Inftitution is now
tranfplanted from Paddington to Greenwich Park.
The noble eflablifbment of Greenwich Rnfpital
has been jultly cmfidered by all nations, a fplendid
ornament to this country, and an earneft to our gal.
lant tars, of comfort and proteaion in the evening of
life, when wounds or old age (ball have difabled them
from earning a livelihood. But when the brave fa-
ther, whole manly heart vibrates to all the fympa
lilies of parental affeaion, beholds upon the fame
fpot that prefents to himfelf the profpea of comfort
in his old age, another afylum, which, should be fall
in battle, adopts his offspring as the children of the
State, and fecures ro them proteaion, maintenance,
clothing, and ecication, fiver ior to any thing he him-
felt could have afforded, muff not his courage and
ardour feel additional ftimulus in his Country's Caufe?
The eflabli(hment of this intlitution, and that of
the Military Afylum for foldiers' children, at Chel.
fea, may be confidered as foremoft amongft thole mo-
numents that mutt claim for the zra in which we
live, the veneration of pofterity. The &nations
chofen for each of thole feminaries, dole to the great
colleges of Greenwich and Chelfea, are highly ap•
propriate to the obje9s of both, and calculated, to
imprefs alike upon the minds of the veteran and the
youth, love of their country and ardour in her caufe;
and befide accomplifhing a point fo grateful to na-
tional feelings, as that of.. relating from miler), and
vice the orphans of the foldier and feaman, it will
have the effect of giving to both fervices a fupply of
youths regularly trained up and educated for there
, refpeCtive lines, and competent to fill the fituations
of petty officers, upon whole knowledge and condua
In much of the difcipline and good order of both
let vices depend.
I'l4e improvement of the Naval Afylum, and its
exrenfinn to its prefent grand fcale, are, in the chief
degree, owing to the indefatigable zeal and atten-
tions of his Royal Highnefs the Duke of Cumberland,
whole exertions have never relaxed, until this, his
favourite obje&, was completed. For this great par-

VV fponfibility deviate from the generalSyftem by the feledion
of a particular branch, the fanetion of long continued facceffes is
the beft criterion of fuperiority.
Thirteen years have I devoted my pndtiee to theexchillve treat.

me additional ardour to oppofe. as far as I am able, the ravages of
thole Complaints which arc the molt important in the Catalogue
of Human Infirmities.

After initiation into every Branch, as an Army Surgeon, I
formed a with at an early period of pradljee to refeue individuals
from the ignorance of uneducated men, or the equally dangerous
precipitancy of general Practitioner,.
3 he Three Diforders, to the cure of which I have devoted 'my
attention, cnmprife every (pecks of VENEREAL INFEC TION,
whether of a recent or long duration; edly, all kinds of debility,
whether ariling from the habits of fehool boys, or the Indulgences
of mature age ; and, laßly. that derangement of the fyftan in wo•
men which is called BARRENNESS, or S fERILIT Y.
Numerous Dlfeafes are the refult of ignorance, or hafte in the
treatment of a fintple Gonorrhea ; and it not unfrequently hap-
pens that the feeds of Llfe are poifoned by the indifcretion of an
unguarded hour By a fuperior method fuck Complaints arc eafdy
cured; and, even where other, have failed, I fruit that I may pre-
fume to offer a radical re-eftabllfhnient.

Fcw, however, are the cafes of complidted difircfs in this dif-
oraer, compared with the calamitous fituations of men, who, frog'
an indulgence in a folitary vice, or the prevalent gaivies of a
fafhionable life. acquire that Rate of debility, which is the una-
voidable confequenct of fuel) pernicicus habits.

Where the unhappy fuffaer broods over his mifery, but care
fully conceals his misfortune, it may be fome confolation far him
to know, that although it be an objedt of doubt or uncertainty
with other praditioners, the removal of theft deficiencies by the
gradual progref of renovation, is the acquirement of my experi-
ence If the rites of Bacchus or Venus have begun toreduce manly
rigour, much anxiety will be prevented by an early counteration-
of this languid Rate; and in thefe cafes no great difficulty will occur.
But where this deficiency has for years trifled, a proper perfe•
verance is indifpenfably tequilite to revive the numbering (packs
of life, and to re-animate the conftiturinn. _

The building fills up the Tip between bath wings
of that College ;.to which it teems to form an appro-
