LAW INTELLIGENCE.

now4ITREET--Yesterday 14111Efal butchers were ccm•
victed of following their business °lithe Lord's Day.
Tuesday, a young.wonaan of respectable appear-
ance, professing herself to be a servant, applied to
Mr. BIRDIE to punish a young woman, whose name
she said was Charlotte Say, who had bewitched her
with bskostone, and bad exercised the black art to-
ws* her, and last of all, had, with the assistance of
two men, exercised Freemasonry towards her, and
had made use of such means and such language that
it would not be proper for a female to repeat ; and
she further complained, that she was not able to re-
lieve herself from their controul, and was thereby
prevented from keeping her places of service, and
was therefore deprived of the means of getting her
living.—The Magistrate endeavoured to compose
her mind, and to convince her that she was deceived
in supposing that any person or persons could be-
witch her, or interfere, or influence, or controul her
conduct in the way she described ; but she was not
accessible to persuasion or conviction, and nothing
Would satisfy her but a warrant against Charlotte
Say, although she confessed she did not know where
to find-her. The complainant left the Office seem-
ingly in much distress of mind.
MANSION•ROUSEr..A. person of respectable appear-
ance, named Robert Mackie. was examined upon a
Ho.ltalge of haviug forged and uttered the acceptance
af Richard Stephens Taylor, Esq. for £B4 17s.

UNIQN-HALL—Siplar ,AiCationr—A middle-
aged man, of most respectable appearance, accom-
panied by a female of equal apparent respectability,
applied yesterday to the Sitting Magistrate, and re-
quested that an affidavit might be administered to
his female companion, who, he stated, was his wife ;
his application, he said, arose from the following cir-
cumstances :—About three years ago be formed the
matrimonial contr.tct, and at that time carried on a
business of considerable profit, and was possessed of
a handsome? property ; his wife unhappily became
addicted to habits of excessive drinking, and when in
a state of intoxication frequently insulted his cus-
tomers, and offended his friends; the effects of her
ifsprudent conduct weedily appeared ; his shop was
keserted, his friends abandoned him, and he was ra-
pdly approaching a state of ruin, when his wife, ap-
palled by the prospect, determined upon a reforma-
tion, and was desirous of binding herself by an oath
never again to indulge in drinking either wine or
spirituous liquors. The Magistrate lamented the for-
mer propensity of the applicant's wife, and com-
mended the spirit of reformation she had sbewn, but
declined the administration of the oath, which was
the object of the application.

VICE-CHANCELLORS COURT, DECEMBER Bs.
THE IIAKL„OF SHAFTESIWRY, LORD ROBEIST SPENCER,
Amp HENRY pLAGICSTONE, LAU. v. THE DUKE OE
ItAaLaploucm.
gr.. Bap, stated, that this was a Petition on the
part of the Duke of Marlborough, praying that the
receiver who had been lately appointed by that
Court might be directed tO pay over to General St.
John, the surplus of the rents and profits arising
from certain estates of which the plaintiffs were trus-
tees.. The estates" in question were limited under the
Diet apecified for the term of three hundred years,
but the defendant had assigned his interest to Gene-
ral St. John. The principal conditions of the trust
were, to keep down the interest of incumbrances, to'
secure the sum of thirty thousand pounds as a pro-
vision for the Duchess, and provide fur the grand-
thlidrea, The Bill went on to pray for a reference
to the Master, to inquire and report what was the
value a the timber already cut down, what trees;
were fit to.be cut down at peesent, and how the pro-
due, ought to be applied.
Sir ARTHUR PIGGOTT for Lord Shaftesbury and
Lord Robert Spencer, observed,' that it was a part of
the decree of the Court, made on the Bth of August
last, that the surplus of the trust estates, after per-
loaning the coaditioos of the conveyance, should be
paid to the preient Duke cf Marpormigh. The Pe-
tition referred 'to a. deed executed by his Grace to
General St. John ; WI of thisthe Court could take
no notice nor make any iredor thereon, as General St.
John was not a party to the suit. This application
called upon the Court to alter a Decree on Petition,
which could not be regularly done except or. a sup-
plementary bill.
Mr. HART said, he appeared for Mr. Blackston
the other trustee, and his only objection to the prayer
of this Petition was of the same nature as that stated
by his Learned Friend.
The Court directed a reference to the Master, in.
conformity to the defendant's application,

A RIXE—ECCLESIASTICAL COURT.
'A came was brought forwaid in this Court the Id of Novem-
ber last, wbfch excited no small interest in the parish of Trinity.
It appears that there had been a rile ,(a fight) on Sunday the
10th of May last, in the church-yard of the parish of Trinity,
when the people were coming out of Church, after Divine Ser-
vice. Daniel Peltier, jun. Esq. and Mr. John Alexander, from
bud words came to blows. Mr. Allier who had been chosen
Overseer of this parish before the battle, appeared now in Court
for the purpose of being sworn in, when a remonstrance, signed
by a number of the principal inhabitants, was tea*, stating that
Mr. Peltier had bad a fight in threhurch-yard with Mr. Alex-
&nitro° the great scandal of the Public, demanding that the
administration of the oath should be deferred, and that after
proofs of his ill conduct should be produced, that be should be
declared an improper person to bold the office of Overseer.
Seventeen witnesses having been sworn, many of them de-
clared that Mr. Pellier was the aggressor, and that he struck
the first blow; others deposed that Alexander struck first ; but
aS agreed in saying, dint Mr. NSW coming from the ale-house,
near the church-yard, and in presence of a third person, called
Mr. Alexander, and reproached him with having told licit of
him ; this provoked the lie on the other part, and haviig ban-
died it about from one to the other, they at last came to fisty-
cefs in good earned. M. L'Avocat Poingdestre was Counsel
for Mr. Pellier, and pleaded his cause. M. L'Avocat GOdfray
was for the other party, but before the Court (M. Le Doyen)
was able to recapitulate the principal facts of the proceedings,
the floor of the Court (le parquet) was on the point of exhibiting
a scene more terrible than even that of the church-yard. The
witnesses of each party, who had been contradicting one ano-
ther, began to abuse each other, the tumult increased, and without
farther ceremony came to a general boxing bout, when the Very
Reverend Dean Duprd, in a loud and severe tone of voice, repri-
manded this licentious behaviour, saying, that he was no longer
tstonished at so great a scandal having taken place in Trinity
Chinch-yard, since they lost all respect for a place so sacred as
that where they now were; he therefore for the present would
defer pronouncing judgment, and adjourned the Court.

Toren, Dec. 13.—An Inquest was this day held before Jo.
seph Gribbk, Esq. Coroner, and a respectable Jury, at the Seven
Stars 100, iu this town, on the body of a young man, named
WM. Luscombe, who had been drowned the day before in the
river Dart. It appeared in evidence, that the deceased was one
of Torbryan;and had been to Tomes market, as a butcher, had
delivered some meet in the country, and was returning toTotnes
again, about two o'clock, riding aside on his horse behind a pair
of panniers, and on the Totnes Bridge, which is narrow, and the
parapet walls broken down, he met another horse, with pan-
niers, coming against him ; the two horses came in contact, and
Mr. Luscombe's horse was forced with his hind legsvpon the
broken parapet wall, when he directly fell over into the.river,
above 20 feet high, and although assistance was immediately
rendered, and the body taken out of the water within ten mi-
nutes, every exertion used by medical men to restore life, prov-
ed ineffectuaL The Jury, after a little hesitation, agreed on the
following verdict :—" That the said Wm. Luscombe. was nea-
distally drowned, occasioned by some person or persons unknown
having wantonly broken down the parapet wall of the bridge, and
the same having been left inarepaired for many months by the Cor-
poration of Tomes."—The deceased bore an excellent character;
and is sincerely lamented by his friends and acquaintance.

Accroxters.—Yesterday morning Sarah Leigh, $ child four
years old, the daughter of Mr. Leigh, of Fulham-fields, was
Imprudently locked alone in the house by her mother, while she
went out on some business ; when the mother returned she
flund the place full of smoke, and was horror-struck at seeing
her child lying on the flour, burnt in a manner too dreadfutto
describe; her clothes were burnt completely off her back. A
Surgeen was tent for, and upon his arrival he found that site
was dead. It appeared that during the mother's absence she had
got to the fire, and in lighting some sticks set her clothes on fire.
Yesterday morning a lamentable event happened on the Lon-
don Hospital Estate, which proved fatal in its consequences. A
party of men were employed in making an archway under
Turner-street, near the London tiospital, and when nearly
finished, one of them, nursed Alexander floss, was in the act
of kriscking one of the centre pieces out of its position, when
the whole of the bricks and dirt fell in and covered them. Two
of the men happily extricated themselves from their perilous si-
r tuition, but Roes unfortunately perished, being suffocated. The
two survivors instantly dug in search of their fellow-workman,
and after 'some time found him quite dead. His body was taken
to tht London Hospital.

An accident, which had nearly proved fatal in its
Consequences, "ccurred .to Staff-Surgeon DOUGHTY,
of the Albany Hospital, Isle of Wight, on Friday
evening last, about four o'clock, in the harbour of
West Cowes. Being on his return from a tour of duty
at Porchester Castle, in the Depot hoy, in company 1
with Colonel MAINWARING and Dr. DENECKE; and
'on following them out of the cabin on the deck, he
found the Colonel had lost his hat overboard ; he
having an umbrella in his hand, was about to put it
up to screen his Commander's head from the rain,
which was then fast falling, when the main-sail sud-
denly blew to the side on which hp was standing, and
struck-him with such force as to throw him otf his
balance, carry him over the vessel's side, and plunge
him into the sea, when he immediately sunk, and was
carrird by the tide under her keel, although she was
then sailing'. Rising to the surface, (though no swim-
mer,) he struggled greatly with the troubled element
for some time, when he again went.down, and, after a
short interval, returned to the surface a second time,
and renewed his struggles for the preservation of life,.
but was soon exhausted, and his efforts finally ceased.
In a few seconds he must have disappeared. And,
a' -hough every possible celerity was used in lowering
and manning the two boats of the Depot vessel to
render assistance, yet, it is believed, neither the one
or thc other could have arrived in sufficient time.
The eye of PROVIDENCE had, however, directed Sir
•Gionca THOMAS to the scene, who, fortunately being
in his boat to windward, came down with a degree of
rapidity highly honourable to hicir umanity, and who
arrived just in time to save a sinking fellow-being
from a watery grave ; for when taken into the boat,
the lamp of life appeared extinguished, and thelast
spark of vitality seemed to have left his livid lips. In
this state be was speedily put on hoard the Depot hoy,
when the prompt assistance rendered by Colonel
MAINWARING in person, and by his authority; and
the judicious application of the means used on such
occasions, under the direction of Dr. DENECKE, soon
re-kindled the vital flame; and, although he suffered
greatly during returning animation, and for some-
time afterwards, he is now in a fair way of recovery.

bring it in as genteelly as possible, there was .1 pre-

in the neighbourhood of Hanover-square on Tuesday
evening, in commemoration ri Randalrs victery over

was about t, hare a benefit, and this fi tescc was ma-
naged: to dive eclat to the cro:rd flats, as Turner was
publicly informed, that Martin's money was in wait-
ing for him at Burn's ; but there being no inclination,
even at dinner, to cover any part of it, and Burn, the
inflexible friend of Martin, fall on his mettle, chal-
lenged Randall to combat with his pupil, on condi-
tion Olathe should fight Martin, 130 to 100, on the

but the hostess spoiled the sport, with much energy
declaring that was not a place for fighting, a,ld

The town of Altringham was disgraced last week
by a relic of barbarism. One William Yarwood, a
farmer's servant, after expending ten-pence in the
purchase of a new halter, tied it round the neck of
his wife, and led her into the Market-place, where
after sheaving her and properly expatiating on her
good qualities, he sold her for one penny!
The old miser of the name of COURTOY, whose
death we noticed the other day, is said to have left
the enormous sum of two hundred and thirty-nine
thousand pounds. He did not die, ac was stated, iu

Leicester-fields, where he let lodgings. and lived in
