• Saturday at the Public Office, Bear-street, Francis
Vain,, of the Tolls at Hyde Park Corner gate, was
summoned for taking more toll from one• of the
Chelsea stage coaches, than is allowed by the Act
Of Parliament, which makes hackney coaches liable
to pay toll every time they go.through a gate with a
different company. In answer to this it was conten-
ded, that although his coaches had numbered. plates
-over them they were not hackney coaches, but were
licenced by the Commissioners to go Chelsea, and
there only. The Magistrate being of the same opi-
nion, convicted the Collector in the penalty of R 5. ,
ROBBLRY or THE UNION BANK, AT GLASGOW.—.
' Yesterday Houghton alias Puffy White, who was- ap-
prehended a few days since, in Tower-street, St.
George's-fields, was brought to Bow-street Office,
for further examination, on suspicion of being con-
cerned in the said robbery ; as was J. &whop, on a
Icharge of aiding and abetting in the same. White
was identified by G. Johnson, a waiter at the Talbot
Inn, iir Darlington, in the county of Durham, in com-
pany with two other men, travelling in a chaise and
four,
_yesterday se'rinight. They an appeared to have
a great number of Scots and Bankof England notes.
A Sags £2O Bank-bill was tendered in payment for
their chaise, some sherry, and biscuits; which the
landlord not being able to change, it was taken .to
1 the Bank, where White paid 2s. 6d.. to anal* the
change. He was also identified by H. Cumingtool
waiter at the White Hart Inn, at Welwyn, travelling
in a chaise and four, towards London, in company
with two men answering the same description seen
with him at Darlington. At this place they left a-
portmanteau and coat, directed to be sent by a coach
to the residence of Scultop, in Tottenham Court-
road, where some pickh,ck keys being found, he was
taken into custody ; but there being no other evi-
dence against him, he was dischaiged, he not an-
swering the description of either of those in company.
with White. Mr. R. Walkinshaw, whir is concerned
in the Bank, proved that upwards of £20,000 had
been stolen from the Dank. Mr. Knapp attended for
the prosecution, and Mr. Adolphus ior the prisoners.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JULY it.
• 90011111 V. TAYLOR. •
This was an action inputboy the landlord of the
- Three Tens Tavern, in the ugh, to recoyer from
ihre,defendant, an attorney, fit-Craved-street, the sum
• of 416. es. for a dinner Sepplied to 25 persons on
Easter Monday cast. It appeared that a Jury had
been assembled upon that day to assess a compensa-
tion to a Mr. MOsely, for property throegli which a
new line of road was to be carried in the county Of
• Kent. By the Act of Parliament, the expense of
summoning and maintaining the Jury was to be de-
fra'yed by the person calling for the assessment. Mr.
Taylor was concerned for the Commissioners of, the'
Turnpike- Road, and it appeared had given some or-
ders, through Mi. Well, the attorneyloe Mr. Mosely.l
and although he did not partake of it himself, yet \
two ot his clerks were present.
. Lord Ete.essonouon thought that the word
° maintaining; in the Ait of Parliament; never meant-
that a Jury upon such occasions should be juncidet-
, ing at a tavern, but meant that a separate compen-
',vino should be given-to each Juryman, to recom-
pence them for the expense of going to a distance
from 'bele houses. Wherever persons collectively i
partake of a dinner at a Liven, each is individually !
fesponsible to the landlord for the amount of his bill,l
unless the individual plead ,that he cannot be sued
alone r but when a•peeetio gives a special order for a
dinner for himself and a member of friends. thee it
is upon his credit aloqg that it is so given, and there-
fore .he must •be lieM for the amount. Although
Mre Taylor,was not personally present, yet he was a i
participaZ of the common dinner by means of his
clerks. Verdict. for the plaintiff, sel6.-14s. . .
