Princess ELIZABETH, the Duke of CLAitzacs, sad
their respective suites nitre were no particular pre-
sentations, nor o a, the c. nip iny so numerous as usual.

&C. &c. The public were not admitted. The win-
dows of the Ball Room were closed, and the noble
chandeliers completely righted, to give a more bril-
liant effect to this most magnificent apartment.—
In the orchestra was stationed the lull military band
of the 58th Regiment, and as the QueeN, supported
by the Duke of CLARENCE, entered the room, the
grand national air " God save the King," was given
with must imposing effect, and continued as the il-
lustrious visitors and their attendants walked to the
top ot the room, where three very handsome chairs
were placed for the Royal Family. The Qualm re-
posed upon the centre, one (or nearly a quarter of an
hour, the Duke of Cl.alieseie And the Princess ELl-
semi's! standing on each side her chair ; and their
attendants ranged on either side below, whilst the
band performed several other airs, amongst which
was' Rule Britannia."

The Master of the Ceremonies then preceded them
.into the Tea-room, where they were received with
Jomelli's celebrated air Chaconne," by the more of
the Pump-room. The Queer/ is partial to the tour

evening, but, much to the credit of the New York
audience, not even the'popelarity of Mr. luct.anox,
nor his excellent songs, were found sufficient to sae
the marks of disapprobation which were loudly heard
from all parts of the house at the dropping of the
curtain. Those especially who did not know the his•
tory of the piece, so absurdly misnamed, but came
with expectations of seeing something entirely dif-
ferent, were quite offended and disgusted ; which they
were at no pains to conceal. Atter sentence had thus
been passed on the Play, the Manager asked Mr.
lricuttxm, since so respectable,* house bad been dis-
appointed in the Play, whether it would not be in his
power to give them their favourite a' Black ey'd
Susan ?" Mr. Iscutoox expressed the greatest wish
to do so, but assured him that he was so exhausted
by the efforts he had gone through, that le telt it to
be entirely out of his power to do it with justice either
to the audience or himself. It was therefore ig iven
up, and Mr. INCLWON soon left the house. l'hen
commenced a scene of noise and uproar, calling for
the same song, although not announced in tho bills;
which continued without interruption during the after-
piece, not a syllable of which was heard.
Mr. Stumm, the Acting Manager, came forward
after the Farce began, and told the audience, as a
reason why their demands could not be complied with,
that Mr. lum.enon had left the house, (as was the
tact); and it be hadliot, that he was rendered inca-
pable of giving the song they wished to hear. This
was, however, disregarded. After the clamour had
continued long, and when it appeared to threaten a
serious riot, and apprehensions were entertained of
the consequences, application was made to the civil
authority for assistance, in case it should be found
necessary. In consequence some watchmen were soon
introduced into the house, but Mr. Pince met them
at the bead of the first stairs, and enjoined them
strictly not to meddle with any one without orders.
On being assured directly afterwards from Justice
Horses that their presence was not necessary, and
being requested to depart, they descended, and were
leaving the house, when sums of them, seeing Mr.
Justice Minion go up stairs, they followed him, and
then some acts of personal violence took place, in
consequence of an attempt of certain persons wlso
undertook to hustle hint, although he deelared.hita-
, self a police sesestrats. The bowie was tbso cleared.

COURT OF CHANCERY, DECEMBER 9.
HIJOHNIS IN THIN MATTRIt Of RICIUMuND.
The Loan Ceasicer.Lon, having read over the va-
rious affidavits and papers relative to this cause, pro-
ceeded to give judgment in it, on coming into Court
this day. There was nothing, in his Lordship's opi.
nion, and he had given it his most serious attention,
that could possibly be taken to contravene the alle-
gation contained in the Petition of Mis. Hughes, re.
lative to the right of the property in question, in the
Deter:Waist% answer. It was, therefore, but justice
to her that she should be decreed to be entitled to the
property. With respect to the point relative to the
alledged contempt of Court, his Lordship would not,
I on the present occasion, give any opinion, as it would
be necessary. before deciding that point, again to look
into the proceedings that had taken place prior to the
present suit, as well as those which immediately re-
ferred to that transaction. As far as regarded the
costs, his Lordship said he would decide to morrow
as to who, Liking all the facts of the case into c insi•
deration, should be decreed to pay them. With re-
spect to the question as to the contempt, his Lord-
ship said he would also decide it at the same time.
Mrs. Hughes was accordingly decreed to have the
...state delivered up to het I and the questions as to
the contempt, and which of the parties shall pay the
Oates were reserved to be decided to-morrow.

ad to be at present in his bands; he also by his

the Court order him to pay the money into Court, it
would be without prejudice against him, as to any
claim the Crown, or any other person, might have
against him, in consequence of his delivering the
money out of his hands.
After a few words irom Mr. AGAR, the money was
ordered to be paid into Court. as prayed for.

[The circumstances of this case we reported on
Friday, the sth inst. It will be recollected that Mr.
Woofer was his own Counsel.]
The Marren of the Rot.z.e—" The answer of the
Defendant contains very particular and material evi-
dence. He says, his work, the Stage, is a Magazine
and a 'Review, and be was in the habit of giving
criticisms on the performances of all new Plays, and
also after they were published ; and that he actually
did review this Farce in his Number X. of The Stage,
and those extracts in NumbersXlll. and XIV. were
only to illustrate what- he had before written, and
that he never intended to publish the whole F arca.
This he lad an undoubted right to do. The Num-
bers complained of did not contain any one whole
act, but a part of two scenes; and, for the purpose
of reviewing them, he was justified in using them.—
The case of Macklin voles Richards, quoted by the
Learned Counsel for the Plaintiffs, instead of being
in support of their case,
.. was against it, as was also
that of Dodsley and Linnessley. In the latter, the
Lord Chancellor gave no decision, but said they
might apply to a Court of Law. Here are only seven
pages published in this 3d book, out of 40 which the
Farce contains. You must thew that the work is in-
vaded when you come to ask for a fiat! decree. I am
of opinion, therefore, from the whole circumstances,
that the Plaintiffs' bill must be dismissed, with costs."
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECF.MBER 8.
THZ KING D. CIIIPPANDALII.
This was an indictment for, perjury against a re-
spectable Attorney, alledged to have been com-
mitted in an Affidavit sworn in a cause io the Court
of Chancery.
Mr. Scaat.err, who led the prosecution, lamented
that he should have to charge a respectable man, as
he knew Mr. Chippendale to be, with so foul a charge
as that of having committed perjury. But at the
SAM time it became his public duty to lay the cab.:
before the Jury for their decision. He then stated
the facts of the case as follows—That in a cause in
Chancery, of the name of Leybourne against Gret.
tan, Mr. Chippendale acted as Solicitor for the Dc-

feraant. The 8:11 was for a specific performance.
calling upon- the Defendant to complete a contuti
for the purchase of certain premi,es in the p..riah of
St. Matthew, Bethnal-green, and Sr. Donsten'‘,
Stepney. The Defendant had urged a variety of ob-
*pctions to the title, which was rekrred to Master
Campbell; and it became a Tiestion lattore him whe.
thcr the parties should go into all the f.bjectinns, or
only the prominent ones ; and Mr. Chippendale, in
all Affidavit in the cause, liad sworn that it sraa
agreed to abandon all but three leading objections.
And this Affidavit was alledped to be untrue, and
that Mt. Chippendale had c:mmitted perjury in the
swearing of it.
To make out the ease, Master Campbell, Mr.
Wir.O.eld, and Mr. Valuer, Bs:lavers, were called,
who were in tit,. C•IUStI ir. Cnancery, and they did nuc
undzrstand that Cut objection., except three. lOW
abandoned.

Mr. Toitrivo, for the Defendant, said it was im-
po,sible dist a man of Mr. Chippendale's elaracter
could hive acteJ intentionally wrong, and that even
it the fact were not as he hid sw:irn, he must have
dons it in error.

Mr. Preston, the Barrister and C nveyancer, who
was also in the cause in Chancery, was callzd, and
he stated that lie understood the business reactly .at
Mr. Chippendale had sworn ita his Affidavit.
Mr. SCAILETT immediately said, that after the evlst
deuce given by so recpect.ible a Member of the Pro.
feacion. he could not suppose that Mr. C.iippendale
had acted inteationally wrong.
Mr. Justice Annorr concurred, and the Defe-cdant
was Immediately acquitted.

THE ZING 11. WEGENER.
This was an maictment for a libel on Mr. CY.p-
pendale, the last Defendant. The libel was in a psi.
vate letter sent to him by the Defendant. with a V'CW,
as the Indictment alledged, to defame Aim wit: tie
psi& It appeared that the only publication was by
sending it to the Prosecutor.
Mr. Justice Asa tvr ohserved, that sending the
libel only to the man himself, could not defame bun
with the public ; and, by his direction, the Jury
found the.Dztendant -No. Guilty.

This was a &ire Facia, to recal certain letters pa-

THE LINO V. CHARLES AND WILLIAM DAVIS.
This was an incite -bent ee,,,atrist t; e defendants,
charging them with having, on the 2.lst latuary last,
used opprobrious language to Thomas Pee coral, Esq.
late Captain of the Echo sloop of war, on board of
which the defendant Charles bad been a Midst:opt:lad,
with intent to provoke hens to fight a duel.
Mr. TOPPING and. Mr. Paaite aepeai;n: in support
of the prasecation. It was ,tared that tnis pie...ca-
tion WAS directed by the Lords of the Anniralty, for
the purpose of preserving discipline in his Majesty's
navy. The defendants were brothers, the one(Chases)
being now a Lieutenant in the navy, and the other
( a Hatt.pay Surgeon in the same service.
In the year 1811 Charles Davis was a Midshipman
nn board the Echo sloop of war, 01 which the prose..
cutor was in that year appointed Captain. He found
the defendant Charles on board, and they r. unlined
together in the ship till 1812, when the defendant
was removed to the Impregnable, of which Captain
Mackenzie was Commander, and from that time
down to the present transaction no sort of intercom ;le
had taken place between the prosecutor and the de-
fendant, except on one occasion, and from what passed
then the prosecutor had no re. son to believe that any
feeling of malice existed in the mind of Mr. C. Davis
against him. In the month of August last, the Echo
being paid off, and the prosecutor no longer em-
ployed in the navy, he married a Lady at Hemmer-
smith, and took up his residence there. On the 21st
of January last, as be was walking out with his wife,
then in an ill state of health, near tirot.k iane, Ham-
mersmith, he was accosted in a very extraordinary
manner by the deleted nets. Charles c.tn.. lento be..
hind, and facing the prosecutor, said, " 1 wish to
know if you mean to gave me any satisfacti•a. i" T:els
prosecutor asked hint who he was-for eediad n.) re-
collection at that moment of his person. tie said,
" My name is Davis." 'hue prosecutor then it meals.
tiered him, and exclaimed-" Satistactioa 1-'or
*hat ?" Charles Davis replied," For your v.:intact
when on board the Echo." His lowlier, whom :he
prosecutor had never seen before, men said, " My
name is Wllliafri Davis, a surgeon in the navy, who
wrote to you at the time, for your d-d, infeteal,
rascally, villainous conduct towards, my brother, a
*poor uniriended Midshipman as you supposed Litn.
You are a sl-d rascal and a ti-ei villain." There
was a crowd cnllected at . this time, and the prose::.:-
tor begged id theist both to desist front Bitch lan-
guage; that his livtlie was not very far off, and if
they had any ti,nig to say to hint they had better say
it there. %V illiain Davis then said, " you area d-d
'rascal, and a d-d veltain, and by G -it my broth:,
shall fight you di:ectly, and I will sand by hunt *:.l
see the last drop et your blood spilt." At this time
the prOsecutor was geeing towards home, and tbe
tendants were ioilowing him. When they earned
into lirook.lane William Davis said, 0 I have. been a
el-d lung time boffetting about in the d-d
guard service, and I know yen all too n-eif ; yeti are.
A set lit d-d rascals, alit' I sviAll.i ;:lit a halter tou•iil
your necks and hang one hall lit you." T:.e derendaii,,
William Davis, then desired his hrother to take 1.. e
Lady's arm, and he could walk after ana ciaever_et
with the. prosecutor-lie did so, and tile conversa-
tion was rational and cool upon the conduct of each
either ou board the Leh... The Surgeon walxed
with the plaintiff's Lady-his ,libiei vations were

The prosecutor stated all these circumstances in

Ms. DENMAN, for the defendants, was proceeding
to cross-examine him. when
Lord ELIANBOROUGH said, does your case, Mr.
Denman, go til a denial of the words ? It it does
not, your defence had better be reserved on affidavits
in mitigation of punishment. There must be a err-
diet of guilty. 'l'hese words evidently went to pm-
vokc the prosecutor to fight a duel, but there may be
circumstances of a mitigating nature, which it will'
be. very 'limper to state when the defendants are
brought up for judgment.
11r. DENMAN coincided in the propriety of this
lug gestitee and a verdict of Guilty was recorded.
couRT OF COMMON PLEAS, DEC. e.
TUE COUNTESS Of BERKELEY V. MAGNALL.
This war an action brought by the Countess of
B. rkeley* against the defendant for a trespass, in
break op and entering her close, at Cranford, in Mid-
dlesex the defendant pleaded the general issue;
seeo .dly, that the place in ques6or. was part of his
own ateeneld ; thirdly, that he had only opened a
!nivel. road leading frem his house to the village of
Cter. ard, which the plaintiff had blocked up. Cleo
Viet plea war, that he had cut down trees to remove
obstructions to his right of way.
air Ss Besr, on opening the case, stated that
the defetelent was an atturrey, who had ben led
wee!. by prceessionel prejudice to oppose the Noble
Countess upon a point which his better judgment 1
should lieve told him he could not gain. Ho was
desirous of obtaining a slip of ground upon the waste
o' Cr 'llford Manor, and he might have had all be
wanted it he It .d but complied with the reasonable
terms proposed by the Noble Plaintiff. The Coun-
tess of Iltikel .y wes tenant for lite under the will of
the late Low kS.rkeley, consequently she was under
restriction as to the conveyance and disposal of any
part of the property in dispute. The subject of this
anent formed a past of the Manor of Cranford, in
the county of Middlesex, which had long been the
family tessdenee of the Berkeleys. It wee not a large
mama, as it might be purchased perhaps for silo,ooo.
There is a small strip nt land lying next the Bath
nee., near Cratitord-house. lite defendant had
buitt a house on a piece of land adjoining, and he
claimed the slip of land on the plaintiffs waste as
. past of the freehold in his possession. If ho was
right in that claim he would be entitled to a verdict,
but Serjeant Best said he should be able to convince
the Jury that it always had been part of the waste of
the Manor ul Cranford, in which all Lady Berke-
ley's clients were interested.. The question would
be, whether the slip of I.nd was part of the waste.
The Couatess Di Bei keley would prove that the cattle
which fed on the waste of the parish of Cranford,
had always fed on the spot in question. This estate
bad long been the seat of the Berkeleys. Whenever
.. the late Load Berkeley cut down timber in his park,
the trees were drawn to the piece of waste claimed
by the defendant. There was a tree standing on it of
a remarkable description. It was cut down by Lord
Berkeley, and the fops and boughs given to the poor;
but the defendant himself admitted the land to be
part of the Manor by making application to Lady
Berkeley to let him have it. He should prove the
trespass by Mr. Magnall himself going to cut down
poplar trees. on pretence of making a way into his
platen. The trespass was committed with violence.
Toe assertion was, that be was entitled to make clear
an old road leading to the village, but the trees he
cut down did not starve in his way. It would appear
that the spot supposed to be a path bad long been a
bog. 'Under all the circumstances the Noble plaintiff
would be entitled to a verdict.
The Learned Judge declared his opinion was, that
the defendant could not defend the trespass.
The Jury found a verdict fur the plaintiff—Da-
mage& One Shilling.
