GRAND MILITARY SPECTACLE.

FILL TTTTT lON OF COLOURS AT ■LACCNLATN TO THY
LOYAL LONDON VOLUNTRIIRS.
This interelling ceremony afforded one of the molt
beautiful, and one of the grandea fpellecles this me.
tropolis ever raw.
At eight o'clock yellerday morning the different
regiments repaired to the places appointed for em-
barkation.
The different Regiments were thus arranged :
In the firft boats, the Commander and Field Offi-
cers, Adjutants excepted.—ad. The Bind.-3d. The
Regiment. The Grenadiers and L.glit Infantry
preceding.-4th. The Adjutant and gloater Matter.
After the embarkation, tome of the boats having
to pars through London Bridge, it was ten o'clock
before they all reached the place of rendezvous colT
the Tower.
Precifely at a quarter before nine o'clock, the Earl
of Heal: worms arrived at the Manfson Houfe, ac-
companied by Lady liesetworom, Lord PlTtlt•
SHAIPI, and Lady Ames MARIA Swoops, and his
Staff. About the fame time arrived the Sheriffs of
London. The whole party immediately let off to
the Tower Stairs, in order of proceffion as they ar-
rived, preceded by the Lord Mayor's carriage and
fix horres, in which were his family. Having reach-
ed the water fide. the Earl of Heettinorne and the
LoaD Metro' alighted, and repaired to the Gover-
nor's of the Tower, where they met his Royal High-
nefs the Duke of Yoe it, and his four Aides-de-Camp,
with whom they returned, and embarked immedi-
ately, together with the yell of their party, under a
royal falute from the Tower,and proceeded without
further delay, accompanied by the Committee's
Barge for the day, and the Lord Nelfon Barge, in
which were &sterol perfons of diftinaion.
As this part of the flotilla moved along, they were
preceded and followed by Come hundreds of .boaut,
many of which were elegantly decorated. An equal
number Rill remained with the River Fencible
Boats, containing the Volunteer Regiments, which
was attended with a happy effect; for had the whole
of the flotilla moved off together. the attrailloo
would bete been confined to one fpot, and the rive,/
would have been blocked up from their:lounce num-,
her of boats.
The Ihores on each fide the River were erouded
with people, The tops of the houfes were covered ;
nor was there a fpot in the whole difianee to Green-
wich unoccupied. It was expelled that the Chief
Magiftrate of the City would have been cheered as
he proceeded down the River, but no adequate idea
could reafonably have been formed of the power of
fuch a falute. The Chants from the Stentorian lungs
of fo many Cellars berated in the air, with little
interruption, during the whole of his paffage. The
Enterprise (the tender) was decorated with the co-
lours of all nations, the Royal yacht at Deptford.
and a fheer hulk off Greenwich,were each ornamented
in the fame way. The colours of alma every nation
in the commercial world were floating atvarions parts
of the Thames, and exhibited loch a proud difplay
of the extended trade of the metropolis, as would have
made any foreigner envy us to fee it. The Royal
Dock Yard Corps at Deptford, and the New Dock
Corps at Blackwell, Calmed she windy as Iticy Faabilt
and contributed very much to heighten the drat of
the foci:lade.
The whole of the bufinefs on the River was eon-
dulled with the greatelt regularity. Four River
Fencible boats preceded the barges, to keep a clear
paffage, and each boat mounted an 181 b. carroaade,
and was well manned. On the Lord Mayor's barge
arriving oppofite the Thames Police Office, the Vo-
lunteers belonging to that eftablifliment were drawn
out in boats, and filleted it. The fame attention
was paid by the Volunteers at the Well India docks,
who appeared on the banks in military array, and
fired three vollies with great precifion. At Deptford
the Militia of the Tower Hamlets fainted.
The feveral divifsons of boats did not proceed
from the Tower until nearly half an hour after the
Lord Mayor's barge. Each divifion was command-
ed by an Officer of the River Fencibles; and a (pace
of about oso yards was allowed between each divi.
lion. The firfi divifion, which comprifed the ill
Regiment, was contained in 9 boats. The ad Regi-
ment occupied 12 boats; the 4th, to ; and the reit
about the fame propel tion. The Bands of each
Regiment played all the way, and produced a molt
charming effect upon the water.
The fame good order which had hitherto prevailed
flailed at the difembarkation at Greenwich. The
company in the Lord Mayor's Barge landed at the
centre (lairs, and were all hofpitably received at the
Governor's Houfe, until it was time to repair to the
Heath. The other two City Barges, and the Duke
of Manchefter's yacht, landed their companies at
the fame place.
The difembarkation having thus taken place, the
Greenwich Penfioners lined the different corners of
the Hofpital in their holiday clothes. The park of
artillery from Woolwich, placed on the left of the
landing, gave its repeated doieharges ; and the dif•
ferent corps belonging to the neighbourhood lined
the (bore from right to left, and prefented arms to
each regiment. On their arrival at the bottom of
Greenwich Hill, the whole formed into a kind of
dole column, in order to proceed to Blackheath.—
The River Feacibles, uodcr the command of Ccm•
modore LUCAS, Allied by a detachment of the
Wellminiter Light Horfe, formed an opening through
that crowd, from the bottom of the hill to the gate,
leading on to the Heath. The Committee led the
van, preceded by a band, with the ten pair of co-
lours, and fiandards for the cavalry. On their
salival at the tcp of the hill, they drew up on the
right of the gate, and the Regiments paled them
in companies, according to leniurity of number,
headed by his Royal Highnefa the Duke of You,
attended by his Staff. to the Heath, and took up
their ground, which extended for full two miles, be-
ing the whole extremity of the fpot. On their being
formed they flood nearly in the following order :
On the right of the line were the London Volun-
teer Cavalry, with their field pieces, difmounted, in
their flying cars. &e. ill, ad, and 4th, Regiments.

circle round them, in which were her Royal High

The ceremony of prefenting the colours, the ob
of all the labour and wiffirs of the day, and wt
(after all) is worthy of more than the moll refi
pageantry can claim, the ceremony of prefenting
colours was performed in a manner becoming

in the moil folemn manner, after which the Enfi
came forward, and kneeling down, received. ti

COURT OF CHANCERY.
,
OODSLLL V. LORD COUILTSNEY.
Mr. RICHARD{, Counfel for Mr. Godfall, this day
produced affidavits from three eminent coach•makers,
explanatory of the cußom of the trade as to the
allowance of eighteen months credit, which was re.
loved by the Lord Chancellor when the cafe came
on before, on a motion for an Injunnion.
The objeetion on this part of the cafe arofe front a
latter of Mr. Godfall's to Lord Courteney, in which
he Rated that he had allowed him eighteen mostly
credit op his bills; whereas, in fadt, be had only
allowed eighteen months from the commencement of
each current year. and many of the articles being
charged in the Months of November and December, a
there would confequently be upon thofe articles
credit of about fix months only.
'lt was (worn in the affidavits filed on the part of
the Plaintiff, by pellets who had been tweog o;
thirty years in the bufinefs. that the cultola tithe
trade was, always to calculate the eomMencemerst of
the credit'from the beginning of the current ye" and
r., allow fiz months from the delivery of the bilk
Chriamas; and that this• according. to thi c.
a the trade, and the ufual acceptance of the .
was an allowance of eighteenmonths credit.
. Mr. Rictiaaoi contended, that if the P 9049"
be decided by the miaow of the tradetthat 4.
fide wits were deifies; bat that in this Rage at oit
caulk Lord Courteney ought to be prectudedlrrn
nuking this objedtion, on the ground of thefe b#s
having been examined and, fettled, and the (entitles
giun after the bills had been delivered, with the per
tea knowledge that Galati had allowed credit 081
is the manner Rated, and that it was the duty
Lord Courtene)'s Reward, whet he examined thi,
bills. to have then objefted to this mode of Rating
the accouu, whereu be had. in fait, recognifed and
admitted the manner of Rating the account, and no
thioniuo had been ever made to it.
Mr. Rosera.r.for Lord Courteney,contended that

as to the cooltration of this alledged cußom of trade.
Lord CHANCELLOR.—" If this otijeltion were taken
to an account recently fettled. fhould certainly
have thought mytelf bound to interfere, for it is
inmoffible to reconcile it with common fenfe. that a
• man Ovoid fay eighteen months is given, when that
affertion does not apply to any one article in the bill,
or to the whole taken collenively ; and it fignifies
nothing with me what thefe coachmakers (wear as
to their cullom of trade, for if that cußom, in their
conaration of it, be repugnant to common fink, it
can never be legal, and no Court can enforce it. I
recolleet a cafe when I fat as Lord Chief Juftice of
the Common Pleas, at Guildhall, when a cuftom was
attempted to be ellablifhed by evidence fimilar to
this. and 1 told the Jury, that if it was not reconcile-
able to principles which muff govern mankind, ailing
upon the plain fenfe of the import of words, that it
war worth nothing; and they Mond a eerdiß againft
it. But the point now is—Whether Lord Courteney
is not precluded from making this objenion ? and I

Mr. Baron GRAHAM Gid, that it was evident therej
had been a plan and contrivance to produce a con•)

appear as if the coda:Gun was extorted ; that point
mutt go to the
_Tory. The Prifoner's eonfeflion,
made before the Magiflraten mutt be taken by the

Jury as evidence.
Mr. KNAPP and Mr. BARRY, as Counfel for the
Prifoner, argued that there was no evidence of the
Prifoneer knowing of any contrivance.
On behalf of the Prifoner, four or five rerpellable
Gentlemen gave him an excellent charafter for hu-
manity and gentlenefs of.temper. One defcribed him
as a young man of a moll amiable difpottion, and
one who, fit far from feeking a quarrel, would en-
deavour to avoid and compromife it.
Mr Baron Gastiatt, in his charge to the Jury,
raid, they mull on the whole take it, that there was
evidence of the Prifoner having contelred to the Ma-
gillrate that he was the person who killed the de-
ceafed ; and if they thought that was fuch a volun-
tary uninfluenced confection, as to induce them to
believe the Prifoner was the man who committed the
homicide, he knew not how it could be extenuated
yo any thing limn of the crime of murder, which,
