Gentleman apprehended in company with Air. fla,„*.

Two respectable householders appeated to give hail before
the Loan 31 semi, on Wedius lay last, upon an attachment
in the Lord Alayor's Court, when a question arose of gteat
importance upon the subject of the bail admissible in that
Courts—Mr. A/mums attended as Counsel for the plaintiff. It
appeared that property to a considerable amount, belonging to a
person in the West Indies, had been attached in the City. The
defendant's wife, who is now in France, gave authority to a se
licitor to defend the action and put in bail to the attachment, it
and he accordingly now brought forward the As.
ohms examined them at co:l:lda:table length as to their validity, •-•
which they established fully to the satisfaction of the Loa
Mayon ; but it appeared that they had no knowledge whatem •
of the defendant, nor any authority !torn him to put in bat
They had come forward solely to oblige the defendant's solicits;
on his promising to bear then: nrnttl They neither knew the I
defendant nor his connexion=.—Mr. As.nut:u s, in a long 'perch,
contended, that this bail was inadmissible; and that t.viaele ta: t •
bail came without the knowledge or antitority of the loin*
it could not be received.—The Lento Ma sus was inclined t:
tide according to the general practice of the Court, which wit
favourable to the admission of such bail; but at the request d
the professional Gentlemen on both sides, his Lordship postpunei •
the case foe a farther hearing, when Counsel will attend on bud •
sides, to argue the point at length.
Last week, a journeyman shoemaker, in Edinburg}, •

ployer, and advertised for the loser, who wits found
to be a porter, that had lost the money while con- •
veying it from one Gentleman to another. Ile offered
the finder 10s. which the latter generously refused;
his employ er also, as a reward of his honesty, offered
him .5). but he persisted in refusing to tak.! anything
for having done no more than what was right.
Andover has been thrown into a state of strong et-
citement, by a circumstance which has taken place' ,
within these few days. Miss —, who was teacher

a married man, who was agent to a house of respee•
tability in London, in the vine trade. Under a pre. •
tence of collecting•debts for his employers, the Cep
tleman had quitted his re.idence, some days before;
and the young Lady, a few days after took a chaise
for Basingstoke, where she was joined by her gallant. •

some of the small shot and dressed the wound, but a
mortification took place, and he expired yesterday
