LAW INrELLI9ENCE.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, AUGUST 4.
Mr. TRESLOVE presented a Petition, the object of
which was the appointment of a guardian to the na-
tural daughters (three infants) of the late Mr. Curtois,
an eccentric character, well known fo►r his penurious
habits, and for a transaction in which he was con-
cerned with a Mrs. Phipoe, who was afterwards tried
at the Old Bailey for attempting to extort money
from him. He has left the large sum of £240,000,
though he began life as a hair-dresser only, to be di-
vided amongst his three illegitimate children.
LORD SHAFTESBURY V. THE DUKE OF MARLBOROUGH.
:Mr. BLAKE applied •to the Court for liberty tq
make a motion in this cause on the behalf of Mr.
Wright, on Monday next, under the following circum-
stances:—An order had been made en Tuesday last,
referring it to the Master to inquire Mettler any pro-
ceedings should be taken by the Trustees of the late
Duke's will against the present Duke, and Mr. Wright,
or either of them, in respect of a bill of exchange ac-
cepted by Mr. Wright in favour of the Duke, and
indorsed by the Duke to the Trustees, and which had
become payable, but of which payment had been
refused. This bill had been accepted by Mr. Wright,
upon the faith of an authority given to him by the
Duke to receive his. Post Office pension; but a few
days before the bill became payab!e, his Grace gave a
power of Attorney to another person to receive the
pension, in direct violation of his engagement with
Mr.' Wright. Now the object of the intended mo-
tion would be to obtain leave for Mr. Wright to at-
tend the Master upon the reference in question, Mr.
Wright being willing immediately to pay the money
if, upon the Mas.er's Report, the Court should be of
opinion. he ought to do so.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR said, he did not think it
would be of any use to hear the motion ; as Mr.
Wright had accepted the bill, and it was passed to
third parties, the Court mast hold he was bound to
pay it, though the consideration was not received.
-Mr. BLAKE said he. had expressed the same opi-
nion to Mr. Wright, but that• Gentleman wished the
matter mentioned to the Court, in order that the
ground of-the non-payment of the bill, when it be-
came due, might be•understood•. •

HIGH TREASON.

SPECIAL COMMISSION—PAISLEY. •
On Tuesday the Court met in the George-street
Chuech, Paisley, for:the trial of James Speirs, wea-
ver; Johnston, and Robert Lang, weaver, Kilbar-
• than, against whom the Grand Jury had found true
bills for High Treason. The Judges were Lord Jus-
tice Clerk, Baron Shepherd, and Lord Pitmilly. The
Counsel for the Crown were the same as at the for-
mer trials: For the . prisoners, the Counsel were
Messrs. Grant and .Sandford. James Speirs was
first put to the bar, and the names of 160 Jurymen
were called oven... After both the prisoner and Crown
bad made a number of challenges, the following
Gentlemen were chosen for a Jury :
Sir M. Skew Stewart, of Greensick and Blackball,
Bart. Furman,
Man Ker, of Greenock, Merchant,
John M'Na.ght, of Glen Park, near Greenock,
Robert -Hunter, of Kirk-street, Greenock,
John Coats, of Pabley, Manufacturer,
Matthew •Ifoger, of Roping,
Alexander Leiper, of Paisley, Merchant,
Gavin Browning, of Paisley, Merchant,
David Trail, of Paisley, Dyer,
John Gibson, of Paisley, Cotten Yarn Merchant,
Thomas Wright, of Paisley, Perfumer,
James Wilson, of Paisley, Silk Merchant.
Afser the Jury were sworn, the indictment was
read, and, like others, it consisted of four counts :
the overreacts were nineteen.—The SoLICITOR-GENS-
Rm. opened the case on the part of the CrOwn, and
briefly commented on the Law of Treason. Twenty-
two witnesses were examined. The prisoner, during
the Radical Rebellion; had been chosen, and acted as
a MeMber of a Committee who commanded a mob
which went and stopped the cotton-works in John-
ston and neighbourhood, on the Sd of April. A wit-
ness, of the name of John Frazer, intimated to the.
Court, that he had been confined for four months on
a charge similar to that of the Prisoner, and wished
to be infornied whether he was to be considered f
still a principal, or if he was to be a witness only ?:......
The Counr informed him that it was a rule that
those who were imPlicated, ifcalled upon for evidence,
were no longer considered peincipals. He then gave
his Avidence and 'Was discharged. The evidence
closed, on the Pin of the Crown. at half-past twelve
o'clock, and the Court adjourned till Wednesday •
