COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY M.
GRIFFITH v. mars.

The plaintiff, an officer in the navy, sought to re.
cover of the defendant, a horse•dealer, ninety guineas
paid for a horse warranted sound, which the plaintiff
bad returned. The defendant, "hen he received one
hundred guineas for the hone, agreed to take it back,
if returned within a stned time, and to return ninety
guineas. The plaintiff, after he had rode him to his
house, sixty miles from town, discovered that the horse
had a thrush, and that it was in other respects un.
sound—Under all the circumstances, the Jury found
a verdict for the plaintiff.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, JULY 20.
THE PRINCE OP WALES, AS DUKE OF CORNWALL, V. ST.

AUBYN AND OTHERS,

The Barons of the Exchequer sat in the Hall of
Serjeant's Inn, to hear the reply in this case. We
have stated in a former report, that the Bill was filed
by the Attorney General to his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales, to recover as part of the Duchy of
Cornwall, some toll on the river Tamer, claimed by
the defendants, and in their possession. The defen-
dants having demurred, the arguments came before
the Court. It was argued in support of the demurrer,
that it was illegal and unconstitutional )43 proceed
against the defendants by the Prince's Attorney Ge-
neral filing a bill, and that the advisers of his Royal
Highness were bound to proceed by the common law
of the land, namely, he general issue, and take the
verdict of a Jury ft* the claim in question.
A number of precedents were cited by the Solicitor
I General and Sir SANIVEL RoMILLY, to prove that the
1 Attorney General of the Prince of Wales had exer.
cised the power of supporting the claims of the Prince
as Duke of Cornwall, in the form of the present Bill,
from an early period.
Mr. DALLAS, in reply, contended that the cases
cited did not apply. By the 21st Of James the First.
the Crown was restrained from filing a bill of intru.
sion if the rents and profits of land in dispute had
not been in the possession of the Crown for twenty
years ; the common proceeding in such a case was
the common law of the land, namely, trial by Jury.
The property, which became the subject of the pre.
sent bill, tiled by the Prince of Wales's Attorney
General, had not been in the possession of the Duke
of Cornwall within the last twenty years, therefore
the Attorney General for the Prince could not do that
which the Crown was precluded from doing. The
bill before their Lordships was not to recover lands
which had been in the Prince's possession within the
time he ha 4 stated, and the defendants had availed
themselves of the 1.. w on the question. Though the
Attorney General for tlle Crown was invested with
power to proceed, by filing a bill in that Court, yet
that power was not vested in the Prince of Wales's
4ttorney General, who was bound to proceed by the
common law of the land. The adesers of the Prince,
he observed, were not, therefore, without remedy.
They might proceed in the form adopted by every
subject of the realm.
The Court did not give judgment.

A Gottenburgh mail with Stockholm Gazettes to
the 13th, and also German Papers to the 11th arrived
last night. The Russians still continue to pursue
their advantages over the Turks with increased suc•
cess, and a Te Deum has been sung at Petersburgh for
the capture of Silistria. The Russian army has pe.
netrated into Bulgaria, across the Danube. It is
stated in an article from Austria, that the Empress
cf France is pregnant, but as Paris papers of a later
date are s lent on this subject, we may fairly question
the authenticity of the rcporzs.
Mr. M'CRRADY has amused the visitors of New-
castle-upon-Tyne, during the race week, and since,
with an excellent company, and in consequence of his
exertions the house has been nightly crowds d. Mrs.

tion of the Comic Department has been greatly admired.
LYCKUId.—A new Melo-Drame After-Piece, called
"Twenty Year: Ago," was produced on Saturday at
this theatre. It is from the pen of Mr. POCOCK, the au-
thor of Hit or Min, and was receivul with considerable
applause. It is a mere thing of rowed and rfreciadf.
of two frail a texture to sustain the weight of criti-
cism, we shall therefore Leave it to make its way in the
world on its merit:.-The music, which is pleasing, is
by Mr. Wuxi'.
The ruins are still smoking in Took's-court, from
the fire of last Friday. Yesterday an old woman was
found buried among the ruins, but nothing of her
body remains, the bones alone being visible. A great
quantity of paper has bean dug out, and a part of it
with the ed4es very little singed—the engines were
playing all Sunday morning,. There was no supply
of water for an hour after the fire broke out, To Art
may be attributed the whole of the mischief.
