this City a courier extraordinary, seat from Vienna to
Lisbon- by the Infante D.nt Miguel. charged with dis-
patches to the 11.-gency,. in which the Prince states his
resistance and decided opposition to the measures
adopted at the iastigatioo of the English by the Empe-

and a democratic constitution.
These dispatchis, the contents of which the courier
allowed to transpire. are considered by our piliticians
not only as authorized by the Court of Austria, but
even to have been solicited by it from Dan Miguel.
Consequently, the new measures and innovations being
suppor sci neither by Austria, nor France, nor Russia,
nor Spain, are nothing else than the result of English
influence with the Emperor Don Pear°, and therefore

BORRODALX b COX AND OTI *2l.
Mr. Hosing moved for an injunction to restrain the
defendants from proceeding in an action at law to re-
cover a bill of exchange for 6,0001.
Messrs. Borrodale, who sae merchants in the city of
London, kept an account at the banking firm of Sykes,
Snaith, and Co. The defendants, Cox and Biddulph,
are well known bankers, at Charing-cross, and the other
defendants ase assignees of Sykes and The bill
which was the subject of this application, was given by
Messrs Borrodale to Sykes and Co. in July, 1825. It
was payable six•nsonths after date, and indorsed by Bor-
rodale and Co. to the firm .of Sykes, as secur*y far the
payment of other bills, in case Sykes and bad not
assets belonging to Messrs. Borrodale is their bands.
The bill remained in their hands, and nothing was clone
with it antecedent to the bankruptdy of Sykes and Co.
.in December,lB2s. At that tune there watts from
the Bankers to Borrodale a sum of•botween 4121. and
466001. The difficulty which arose was this: the bill
foqnd its way into the hands of Hodges and Co. Stock
Brokers, and through them into the hands of Cox and
Co. the respectable-Bsnkers at Charing-cross. An action
had been brought upon the bill against the plaintiffs,
and the question for the decision of his Lordship would
be, whether the Charing-cross bankers ought to be per-
mitted to go on with their proceedings at law, . Mr.
Horne then stated, chat the bill remained in the bands
of Messrs. tykes and Co. unnegerimed, up,ao one
