Sir E. CooTr very judicioully direeed, that onne
but effeeiveind steive officers fhohld remain with the
regiments under his direeions, the confecruente of
which is, that the Regiments art completed (with a
few exceptions only) with afiiie, intelligent, and
very efficient Officers. On fuch as are not Capable
of aeive and arduous fervices, A Medical Board was
ordered to fit, to invefiigate and report the caufe of
Inch inability to Sir E. Coosa, that inefficient .4
worn out officers might not remain with corps in-
tended for the me alive ferviee. By weeding the
arrnie eboifi of fuch men (as are better calculated
for Garrifon Battalion: and Itroand Lorps), the let vice
will he very confiderably benefited, and it is to be
hoped, that Sir E. COOTS'S plan will be followed
up by his fuccefeor, and that It may be adopted
throughout the army, nothing being more reqtaite
than that meafure for the credit and refpeaability oh
the fervice. Surely a luitable provifion might be ea-
rthy made for the worn out, and infirm officers of
the army, who are now allowed to remain with
their corps to the great detriment of the fervices
and difcredit of the corps to which they belong,—a
Every marching regiment fhnuld be fiee from the
cumbrance of worn out, rickety, or inefficient officerse
to whom the State owes a more advantageous avid
comfortable provifinn. No coubt his Royal High,
flees the Commander in Chief will cattle an enquiry
to be made, quarterly and without partiality, by the
Generals of Brigades, as to the efficiency in evety te-
epee, of officers belonging to the corps under their'
command, listing the exact condition of th. le stho

tunately unable to aft with alacrity and is ceffiloy aca
tivity fhould be removed to garrifon hatttli ms,inva-
lid corps, or veteran regiment*, without lora f ante,
or otherwife provided for. Sir E. Coots's ',Hearst!e
has inet with great credit,and been confitleted highly
laudable. _ _

Brigadier General Beassroao has marched frnmt
the interior of Ireland with fix regiments of int-Anti y,
to join the army affembled at Co; k, now under the
chief command of Sir DAVID BAIRD.

To the above particulars we have to add, that
the Eaft India convoy has been ordered to remain at
Falmouth till the above expedition be ready, and that
application has been made to the Eaft India Com-
pany to furnifb tome of their (hips to be employed as
tranfports. We Mall fay no more at prefent on this
expedition, which has a very important deflination.

The Cork paper fays, the expedition under die com-
mand of Major-General Sir DAVID BAIKD, confifting

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, AUGUST 7.

THR DUKE OF SLAUFORT U. SMITH AND PHILLIPS.
In our Report of Monday, July the nth, we ftated
the particulars of the bill on the part of the Plaintiffs
in this caufe.
Mr. ALturibla, for the Defendants, Paid, that
the truth was, that his clients had much mot.; to ap-
prehend from the intrufion of the Plaintiffs, than the
reprefentatives of the Noble Duke had to fear from
the encroachments of Mr. Smith, or Mr. Richard
Manfel Phillips. The feat of peril in theft coal.
rt`illey was in •lre vicinity of the river Towye, which
t.ting in the w;ld diftridls of Brecknock and Carmar-
then, tack a fouthern direftion, and emptied its wa-
ters in ttc Briftol Channel, interfedting, in its pro-
refs, the fubterranean treafures of which thefe par.
tic s were the proprietors. If the danger incurred
were to be afcertained by the proximity of the refpee-
tive works to the ftream, no doubt could remain who
were the moil adventurous, as the Plaintiff penetrat-
ed within thirty-eight yards, while the Defendants
preferred a ditiance of ninety-fix yards from the-bed
of the river.
The LORD CHANCELLOR." I am afraid you are
bad colliers. There are many places where you may
work within thirty-eight yards with perfeet fecurity,
and in others, to approach within Too yards of a ri-
ver, erpofes you to certain deftrudtion."
Mr. Romitty.—" My Lord, this the MI time
we have had the fmalleft notice of our having been
guilty of encroachment."
Mr. BOODLE was propofed as the perfon to whom
the differences were to be referred, and who was to

take a furvey on the ellates, in order to form his de-
termination under the fAndion of the Court.
The LORD CHANCELLOR.—" I date fay he is a very
proper per fon ; he is an agent of Sir Henry Vane,
and feveral other collieries."

JOHN CARLFTON 4. Sit W. LEIGHTON•
The Plaintiff was a bankrupt in May, 1793 ; and
obtained his certificate on the t 3th of February,
Boz. - He has paid twenty (billings in the pound to
his creditors ; and is now in the poffefflon of a refpeaa-
ble property. The Defendant is Executor and truf.
tee under the wills of Ann and Sarah Metcalfe ;
the former of whom was infane, and the latter of
whom laboured under infirmity, from bong nervous
affections. On the ground of the invalidity of the
wills of thefe ladies, the Plaintiff fought redrefs in
this Court as heir at law to their elates. The plea
put in by the Defendant was, that in the year 1793,
a Cm:unarm cf Bankruptcy was 1111. d againa the
Plaintiff, who obtained his certificate on the 12th of
February, 18oz ; and whatever right, therefore, the
Plaintiff might have had on thefe elates, it accrued
fri the interval between his bankruptcy and the cer-
tificate, and therefore mull be vetted in his allignee,
John Jackfon. The objeft of this application to the
Court, was to amend the plea in bar, and to convect
it into a flea in abatement.
Mr. i'ort 'Leans, e, for the Defendant, Paid, that the
Ladies, Ann and Sarah Metcalfe, died in the years
1794 and 1796, which was between the time of the
bankruptcy, and the reqnifition of the certificate.—
The words in the gth Geo. 11. C. 30. were as corn-
prehenlive as human ingenuity could make them, not
only to include every ipecies of property in polfeffion,
but every contingency and pollibility of property
which the bankrupt was required to difclofe, and
which became veiled in the aflignees. In Ambler,
79+, the cafe of Moth and Frome was Rated. A
bankrupt kept out of fight the property to which he
would be entitled ; and fume of the arguments from
the bar, and obfervations from the Court, were pecu-
liarly applicable to the prefcnt quellion. Although
in this cafe, in point of form, a new alignment was
required, yet, in point of fait, the property was veil-
ed in the affignee, and on thefe grounds the Learned
Counfel untied iris Lordfhip would be of opinion that
the Plaintiff could not fullain the fuit.
Mr. Rom ILLY, for the Plaintiff, (aid, that this was
an experiment in pleading perfeltly new. It merely
Rates, that the cotnmifflon Hilted in May, 1793 ; that
the effects were duly afligned by a major part of the
Commiffioners ; and that the bankrupt. obtained his
certificate on the 12th of February, 18oz. Never
was filch a plea in a cafe of bankruptcy before pro-
&lced.. The Court could not intend any thing, or
take any thing by inference. Lord Redefdale faid,
page 236, " all the faits to render a plea an equitable ,
hal , mull be clearly and ditlinaly averred."
The ufnal form in which bankruptcy was pleaded
was this :—On or before a certain day, the Plaintiff
(MT vied n•ri a trade, and was indebted in more than
icul. He committed divers ads of bankruptcy, the
petition upon that iffued, and the petitioning cre-
ditor's debt mutt be particularly Rated. If the fub-
jca be real property, it is Rated that there was bar-
gait and tale, and that th;, deed was enrolled. No
man could conceive, that the expeCtation entertained
by the bankrupt from the wealth of his ancellor, or
the fpa fardionis, paled under the afflgnment. In
the car,: creed of Moth v. Frame, the quellion was,
if the freehold accruing to the bankrupt, fhould go
to the laignecs as a poiEbility ? and it wart &mann.

ftd that this poEbility was not each• as could be of
figned or releafed, and therefore could not vett in the
afGgneer.
The Loan CHANCILLOIL.—.." In laying
.the plea
muft be overruled. Ido not intimate there is one
word of truth or falfehood in the bill► The bill mull
be taken to be true- for this, but not for any other
purpofe. The bill Rates, that the two ladies died
at the particular times mentioned, and it infifts, that
for certain reafons alledged, their wills were void,
and the Plaintiff infifts as a legal confequence, that
the real eftates devolve to him. The Defendant
Pays, that fubfequent to the death of thefe ladies, the
Plaintiff became bankrupt, and that the property
udder thefe teßamentary ioltruments yells in the af-
fignees. There is a diftinEtion in Inch cafes between
read and petfunal eftates ; but for the Defendant, it
is contended, that although the entire intereft is veil-
ed in the ancedor, yet it is a poflibility which may
pars under the bankrupt laws. My anfwer is, that
it is neither an intereft nor a poffibility. The mere
expeltation of an heir at law is nothing. The next
of kin has a valuable expectation like the heir, and
both the one and the other may enter into contracts
to difpofe of thefe, but here is no poffibility within
the meaning of the term in the ftatute. The plea,
in a cafe of this kind mull go on to fay how the pro-
perty is veiled in the Adignees. This, under the
ciicumflances fuppofed, can only be by bargain and
rale, and the intereft is in the Bankrupt until it de-
volve to the Commiffioners. This plea has not taken
the property out of the Bankrupt. The Commiffion
ifued to enquire if the man be a Bankrupt, but it is
not a neceffary confequence that he thould be made a
Bankrupt. But they fay, it is enough to aver that
he is duly found, and declared a Bankrupt ; yet a
Man may be duly found, and declared a Bankrupt
and yet not be a Bankrupt ; for if the evidence fatif
fies the Commiffioners, it is their duty to find him a
Bankrupt; but dill it is a matter of uncertainty if
he be a Bankrupt. It may be the cafe that the Com-
' millioners find him to be a Bankrupt, and that the
Jury find him to be no Bankrupt. The plea, as to the
real eftate, is certainly bad: as to the perfonal came,
I think it is fo, and I fee no radon to•give leave to
• amend."

LORD RADNOR V. THE BISHor OF BATH AND WELLS.

This caufc has been five and twenty years depend.
ing ; in the conduit of it the prefent CHamcsieoa,
both as a junior and before the bar, has had a fiery
eonfiderahle (hare. Lord Feverfham was feifed in
fee of certain eftates, over which he had the power of
dilporal. He had alfo certain fettled elates. His
Lordfhip thought it right to provide for his Baugh.
tens, fo as to prevent future difputes he, therefore.
gave to certain Truftees a power of felling all his
elates in Buckinghamthire, Huntingdonlhire, Wilt-
fhire, Bedfordthire, and Middlefex ; but he gave
Thomas Duncombe, Efq. the privilege of pre-emp•
tion of a portion of his elates contiguous to thole
to which he, Thomas Duncombe, was the heir. The
Truftees were to fix a price ; and if Thomas Dun.
combe rejefted the offer, they Mere to difpofe of
them, either the whole together, or in parcels, as
they fhould conceive mow conducive to the benefit
of his daughters. Thomas Duncombe was now
dead ; the contiguous elates of that Gentleman bad
devolved into different hands, not within the con-
templation of the teftator, Lord Feverfham ; and the
queftion before the Court was, whether any, and if
any, which of thofe entitled to thefe adjacent dimes
in poffeffion, in reverfion, or remainder, were to be
permitted to enjoy this privilege of pre-emption,
given eo nonnne to Thomas Duncombe• The two
daughters to whom the whole produce of the elates
devolve are, Lady Radnor and Mrs. Beauwater ;
and all the parties are adult, and before the Court.
Mr. ROMILLT and Mr. FosaLaacton, for Lady
Radnor and Mrs. Beauwater, faid, the firft queftion
was, what was the intention of the teftator ? next,
whether this intention fhould be carried into effea
under the direftion of the Court? The teftator's de-
figa was, to give the pre-emption to the perfon in
poffefiion of the fettled elates ; and if the Court
had not this perfon before it, the priiilege of pre-
emption could not be given by the Coureto the party
for whom it was intended. Lord Feverfham never
defigned to give this option to mere ftrangers ; and, '
on this ground the e9ates ought to be fold at public
auction, according to the ordinary courfe, and no,
right of pre-emption fhould be fupporred by any in.
dividual now in exiftence.

Mr. Plooor and Mr. RICHARDS, for Mr. Shaftoe,
the grandfon of Duncombe, now in poffeffion of the
contiguous Oates, argued, that his client was enti-i
tied to pre-emption.
The ATTORNEY GINFILAL, for Mrs. George Rofe,
formerly Mifs Frances Duncombe, contended, that
the right of pre-emption devolved to her, if not ez-
clufively, jointly with her lifter, Mrs. Shaftoe. If
his Learned Friends would join with him in Iharing
the priie, they might have a chance of obtaining
fometbing ; but, by indulging too much avidity to
feize the whole, they would, like the unfortunate
animal in the fable, lore the delicious bone of con-
tention.

The LORD CHANCELLOR' after an extenfive view
of the relative interelts of the feveral parties, and a
minute examination of the right of pre-emption as
cognizable in a Court of Equity, determined, that
the right of pre-emption in the prefent cafe exills in
no one. "It is not," faid his Lordfhip; neceffary
to fay, what the Conn will do on a future occafron,
under a claim of this kind, as the prefent cafe does
not call for its upinion. I psesounce my decifion
with the lefs relutance, becaufe the only effea of
this judgment is, that if any body exiils who pof-
feffes this right of pre-emption, it only puts him un-
der the necefftty of giving at a public auaion half a
crown more for the cßates than ihe would otherwife
pg."

CHEVALIER DE GARCEN O. HENRY LORD VAUCONERRO

AND ormles.

The LORD CHARCILLOR laid, that there was a fla-
tute which exprefsly took from Engliik fubjeels, who
were Membus of foreign feminarees, the right of
taking legacies. It was paired in the time of James
the Second, and the deg» of it was, to pre±tent
young perfons en►ering into monaftic eftabliihineats
abroad. How far this Aft was varied or abrogated,
by the 3tft Geo. 111. was the queltion to which his
Lot-di:hip was now attending; and, his -mind not
being fats Pied as to this parucnlar, he thould defer'
giving judgment in'tlais caufe until blemclay aut. '

• • ALAJtM!NC kid!

Yeßerclay, at one o'clock, a molt Aiming fire
broke out in Budge-row, Watling-(trees, at the eaten-
five oil and drug waretioufc, belonging tp Met its.
Lewis, Porter and Co.
The fads were as follow :—The greater part of the
morning was occupied in getting in goods of various
kinds ; about one o'clock the porters were letting
down a calk of the oil of turpentine into the cellar,
and, by Come unforefeen accident, it flipped from the
ropes, and fell with fo much violence .gain! the
ground, that the calk was (Love in pieces. A candle,
which they were obliged conflantly to keep lighted
below nein, communicated the flame to the turpen-
tine, which initantly blazed, and ran like lightning
through every part of the houfe. The ftaircafe, which
was of a circular form, and lighted from the top, ex-
hibited a complete column of fire ; fo that every room
in the houfe, at the very fame moment, was a prey
to its ravages. Mr. Lewis' who was in the (hop, im-
mediately rated into the ftreet, and fortunately re-
ceived no injury. Mr. Porter was in the counting.
houfe, and teeing himfelf furrountD with flames,
from what caufe he fcarcely could tell, ru(hed thro'
the midft of them into the ftreet. His clothes and
hair were in a blaze, to extinguifh which, the people
were obliged to roll him in the greet, and even this
did not put it out for fome time ; the fide of his face
was very much Icorched, and his hair and whilkers
entirely burned off. Mrs. Porter was in the front
drawing-room, and, feting the flames burft in at the
door, had the prefeace of mind to get out at the win-
dow, on the leads over the (hop, and fo walked along
the leads of the next houfe, where. in a fhort time,
(he was got down by means of a ladder. The fer-
vent maid, who was in the upper part of the houfe,
fortunately made her efcape through a dormant win-
dow ; and, crofEng over the tops of fevzral houfes,
got down through a houfe in Newcallle-court, with-
out receiving any injury, except a fevere bruize in one
of her legs. No other perfons were in the houfe ;
fortunately, Mrs. Lewis and the 'children were all in
the country. Affiftence was foon procured. In a
fhort time, the Royal Exchange Fire-Engines, and
leveret others, arrived, and commenced playing on
the houfe, which was now blazing in every quarter;
but, notwithftancling their utmoft exertions, they
could not prevent it from confuming the entire houfe,
and communicating to the houfes at either fide—one
in the poffefficn of Mr. Wilkinfon, a calenderer, is
completely deflroyed ; and that of Dr. Wotterhoufe
much damaged. Mr. Poyzer's, grocer, within two
doors, was very materially injuted, having all'the
windows broken, and the roof much damaged by the
combultibles which fell on it ; Meffrs. Minion and
Dakin, tea-dealers, nearly oppcifite, was alto much'
damaged. :The principal injury done extends back
wards, where the fire bottled as far as the church-.
yard, and the lois ftiftained is yet unknown. The;
breateft terror prevailed through the whole neigh-
ourhood, on account of a quantity of gunpowder
that was in the book. However, by the exertions of
the engines, no general explofion took place, nor
indeed was it imagined that any of the powder took
fire, as, if it had, molt probably it would have
built the houfe open ; certainly there were at differ-
ent times loud and alarming explofions, which drove
vaft quantities of lime and dirt from'all the windows,
but it was the general opinion, that it was oceafioned
by faltpetre, and other combuftible matter, with
which every part of the houfe was filled.
A detachment of the tft Regiment of the City Vo-
lunteers turned out, on the alarm, and, by keeping,
the place clear, for the men to woik the engines, con-
tributed effentially in preventing further snifchief.—
The fire was almoft completely extinguifhed at about
nine o'clock; however, it exhibited a frightful ruin of
fmoking cinders ; leveret engines remained, and fire
men keeping watch.

A few days fince, as a (mall boat of one of out
weftern cruizers was fifhing off one of the Glenan
lftands, the officers and fome of the men went athore
to get water, leaving a feaman, a foreigner, boat-
keeper; during their flay on Chore on this barren rock,
the fellow rowed off the boat, it is fuppofed, to one
of the inhabited Mandl, and left the officer and the
reft of the boat's crew under fear of ftarvation but
providentially the frigate flooding in towards the
rock, near enough to fee a fignal, the officer made a
fignal which was anfwered from the (hip, and a boat
was fent off to them and brought them on board, al-
moft famifhed with hunger and thirft. The boat that
was carried off has not been heard of Since.

Yellerday C. Turner, a Waterman, of Cherry-
garden-Rairs, flipped between two veffels, and was
drowned.
A few. days fence a waggoner imprudently went to
fleep on a load of lime, and left the care of the team
to a little boy who got on the (hafts and fell afleep
alfo, in which fituation as the waggon was paffing
through Twyford, near Derby, he dropped under
the wheel, and was inflantly killed.
Early yeßerday morning tome villains broke into
No. 24, Great Charlotte-Breet, Blackfriar's Road,
and Role linen and plate to a confiderable value,
with which they. got clear off. A coach was heard
to fet off between the honfe and Blackfriar's Road,
and immediately the watchman called the hour of
three on the very fpot ! !
Yefterday R. Land was fully committed from
Guildhall, for robbing his employers, Meffm. Jac K-
sou and Co. of Paternoller-roWi of a quantity of
drugs.
Monday night the Revenue' Gttatd-boat; rowing
guard in Hamoaxe, obferved a !mit, very deep, drop-
ping off from the bows of the Hydra; of 32 guns,
Spanifh privateer; on which the Reerfman dodged
through the Sound-the boat to the beach of Cat-
water, and their feized it, full of bags of copper in
pieces, bolts, nails, Sec. &c. to a large amount
The boat's crew ran away on being difcovered.
As it might appear. invidious to. attempt a corn-
parifon, where it is the interea of every Gentleman
of the profefflon to excel, we will not arffer any re-
marks on the late Lottery Schemes ; but we fhould
aet unjnaly, did we.not fay, that the Contradors for
the enfuing State Lottery may certainly venture to
exult in their happy effort, as they have produced a
Scheme which evidently is not Ids rich than novel,
and cannot fail to prove as attraaive, as it mull be.
fatisfadory to a dikerning public. Such a Lottxty,
before the commencement of the war. would have
been bought up in a week. :• •
