COURT OF knillitlittfitfl; 'MOIL
slit lirm. ingrat.

This ration upon the ~moll of a kotse was tried
at the Middlesex Sittings after Hilary Term, and a
verdict was found for* plaintiffmages seventy
guineas.—From the evidence at th&ial it appeared
lit that the defendant the horse to London by his
groom for sale, withl . : ctions not to warrant him.
Sir Simeon Stuart, w as in the habit of riding the
horse in Hyde Park, Was met by the plaintiff, who
asked him the price of the horse? and he replied 70
guineas. The plaintiff then asked if the horse was
quiet in harness? and Sir Simeon* said that he did
not know, but he would ask the defendant. He did
ask the defendant, who said, es The horse is steady in
harness, I have drove out Lady Newry with him in
harness, and also Sir George Nugent and others."—
Sir Simeon repeated this conversation to the plaintiff,
who immediately agreed to pay the price demanded;
but the horse on having been afterwards put. into
harness had not been drove above a mile and a half
on the Edgeware-road, before he kicked over the
shafts and seriously injured himself. The defendant's
postillion and groom proved that they had seen the
defendant drive out Lady Newry and ethers with the
horse in harness. On a former day Mr. SCARLETT
obtained a Rule calling upon the plaintiff to shew
cause why that verdict should not be set aside and a
new trial granted, on the ground that the verdict was
against evidence.
Mr. SOLICITOW•GZHERAt and Mr.ea ATER this day,
in shewing cause against the Rule, contended, that as
the words spoken to Sir S. Stuart by the defendant
conveyed to the plaintiff's mind an opiaion that the
defendant warranted the horse, the verdict ought not
to be disturbed. •
_

Mr. ScAaLZTE and Mr. CAMPBELL, in support of
the Rule, contended that the defendant only meant
to say, that when he drove the horse in harness, he
was quiet, and as that representation was true, the
Rule ought to be discharged.
The Cater JUSTICE was Clearly of opinion, that if
a man says " this horse is quiet in harness,",but does;
not say, " I warrant him to be so," he gives a war-
ranty in point of law; but if a man says, simply, "I
have driven him in harness two or three times, and
he was then quiet," that was not a warranty.- lie
certainly thought that the words used by the defend-
ant to Sir S. Stuart, and repeated to him by the plain-
tiff, conveyed to the plaintiff's mind a conviction that
the horse was perfectly quiet in harness; and as the
Jury came to a similar decision, he should not dis-
turb their verdict.

Mr. Justice BAYLEY, Mr. Justice HCKROYEN and.
Mr. Justice BEST concurred in opinion with bis Lord-
ship.—Rule discharged.

At a late pugilistic dinner, "the ea-Champion
Cribb" was drank with enthusiasm ; after which, Tom'

the challenge was accepted with acclamations.
DtaserssAL AND Pnostonon.--By a law of Persia,
the Monarch is authorized to go, whenever he pleases,
to the harem of any of his subjects. SChab Abbas
hiving been intoxicated at the house of one of Ms
favourites, and attempting to enter the apartment
of his wives, was stopped by the doorkeeper, who
bluntly told him, " Net a man, Sir, besides my
master shall enter here, so long as I am porter.'
. said the King, " dost thou net kali*.
me ?" Yes' answered the porter, "1 knots yon itri
King of the men, Inn not of the turitnete." Saab
Abbas, pleased wall the answer and the fidelity of
the servant, retired to his Palace. The favourite at.
whose house the adventure happened, as Loon as he
heard of it, went and fell at the feet of his Sovereign,
entreating that be would not'ininute toddy the crane
eenonsitted by his stoisiestic, and adding, " I have
already turned him away from my service for his
presumption." "I am ;lad of it," answered the King,
" for then I will take him into mine for his fidelity."

Yesterday, the anniversary aisemblaseef.-44
thy Children of both sexes, educated by subscription
in the different Parish Schools within the Cities of
London and Westminster, Southwark, and pirts ad-
jacent, Wok, place in the Cathedral Church of St.
Paul, and had a sublirtre and an exhilarating effect.
About half-past ten o'clock the Children set out from
their respective Schools in procession ;. the parish
beadles and street-keepers, in their new laced liveries,
and batons in their bands, led the way ; the children
walked two and two, the boys first, accompanied by
their masters ; the girls followed, accompanied by
their mistresses ; each School carried two beautiful
silk embroidered flags, each bearing the designation
of the School, with the addition that the first flag had
on ti in large letters the number of boys clothed and
educated ; and the second flag the same in respect to
the girls. All the pridtipal streets leading to the
Cathedral formed a line of procession half a mile in
length, and were crowded with spectators ; the neat,
clean, and healthy appearance of so many children
was a most gratifying sight. The marshals'-men, con-
stables, headboroughs, &c. were stationed round the
ch-tireh-yard to prevent depredations, keep off the
pressing crowd, and keep order among the carriages.
The children entered at the great North and South
doors, and were conducted to the seats previously
marked out for them under the great Dome, and,
owing to the arrangement made by the Gentlemen
who had the management, the smallest confusion did
not take place.

The seats rose progt4isively (in form of a crescent)
one above wither, from the floor to the top of the
arches'; the- floor was matted, the pulpit was erected
in frontotearly over the grating where Lord NELSON
lies interred; there were temporary pews on each
side, one above another, covered with crimson and
green cloth, allotted for the company.

About five minutes before twelve o'clock his Royal
Highness the Duke of Gtoocastse, President of the
Institution, accompanied by the Duchess and Princess
lormA, arrived at the Cathedral, and the Royal
Party was met at the Great Western Entrance with
due honours, and were conducted to the stall prepared
for them, which was on the right of the pulpit. After
they were seated, the performance commenced with
the 100th Psalm, which was delightfully sung by
the Children and the Gentlemen of the Choir, ac-
companied by Mr. ATTvvooD, on the Organ. After
the first Lesson, " Te Dem" was chaunted by the
Gentlemen of the Choir, which had a most heavenly
effect, and " Jubilate Deo" was performed by the
Choristers. Handers Grand Coronation Anthem,
" Hallelujah, for the LOiD GoD," &c. was executed
in tine style, assisted by the Children in he Grand
Chorus, as was also the 11Sth Psalm. After which
a most impressive Sermon was preached by the
Right Reveread REGINALD, Bishop Of CALCUTTA,
who took his text from Matthew, c. x. v. 24.—" And
whosoever shalt give to drink unto one of these little
koaes a cup of cold water," &c.

A prayer for the KING was read by one of the
Minortanens and the whole was eiecuted in a man-
ner that reflected the greatest credit on the coaduc-
After the service was over the children left the
church; and returned in the same order to their re-
apective schools, where comfortable refreshments were
provided for them. A colleCtion was made at all the
doors, which, we are happy to learn, was very liberal.'
On the clime of the perforMances the Gentlemen
and Patrons repaired to the City of London Tavern,
where a sumptuous entertainment was provided for
them;consisting of the choicest viands the season
could produce, and at half-past five o'clock upwards'
Of SOO sat down to dinner.

Then followed " God save the King," seise and cho-
rus. Several other national toasts were drank, and
Lord BRILEY gave the health of his Royal Highness,
the Duke of GLottc ItaTita.

His Royal Highness rose, amidst the acclamations of
the-assembly, to return thanks. He was never in his
life more gratified than he was on the present occa-
sion. lie could not express his feelings at seeing such-
a numerous but respectablebody, assembled :for such
,a laudable and humane purpose; that all persons whO
,witnessed the spectacle t was presented to them at
