BRIGH7I3IV; JULY sr.

Yesterday being the tertnin ttion of our racing
amusements, under the auspices of a fin-
drew togett;er on the course a larger assemblage than
on any of the preceding days. The sport:ng bill of
fare consisted of the hundred pound l l oe, a Ladies'
of sixty pounds, and two bye matches, betseen Mr.
BotwEntes Discount, and Mr. Howoartes Jubilee,
for one hundred guineas; and Mr. CasetatNciroN's
alias CnsesmaN's bay gelding, against Mr. Lawts's
Hussar, for tifty guineas, all of whom affirded ex-
cellent diversion. During the running of the Ladies'
Pl4te. Lon& EGRESIONT'S brown filly, sister to
Brighton Lass, 3 years old, bolted from the course,
and became so uumtnagenSle as to carry the youth
who rode her a considerable distance over the hills
and the downs ; in the course of the circuit the ani.
mal took, the rider was thrown, but As speedily
gained her, and we are happy to say returned to the
training-room without any injury happening to either,
except the mortification of being distanced. Near the
conclusion of the sport another heavy shower tore the
coverings of the several booths, as well as tlipse of the
company, and, though vehement in its attack, soon
subsided, and left those who chose it to finish the af-
ternoon with good cheer, under an unclouded sky.—
The Libraries, the Steyne, and Cooke's ice-rooms, as
well as Wright's Saloon, were immediately crowded
with company, and in the evening the same compli.
ment with large increase was paid to our two places
of amusement, the Theatre and Royal Circus.
Last night commenced the Balls at the Castle—.
the rooms were elegantly illuminated, and the c.'m-
pany assembled amounted to near 200, who indulged
in the amusement of dancing to a late sour.

Tuesday night, during the performance of the Di.
eras:entreat the Lyceum, a young fellow leaped from
the itage balcony of the second- tier of boxes, and
joined the light-footed corps. The audience strongly
expressed their indignation, and he was obliged to
retire.

The following extraordinary inscription has lately
been cut upon a tomb-stone, at the back of St. Mar-
tin's Church, in the scr.all piece of burying-ground in

Some years ago our experimental farmers were so

Yesterday morning died, at his house in Crown-
street, Wesminster, Mr. Powau., assistant clerk to
Mr. CHINNICRY, in the Treasury department. He had
been near twenty years in the office; was a man of in-
tense study, wrote a remarkable fine hand, and was
a ready accomptant. He has left a wife and fivs

Yesterday, J. Setherid was fully committed from

Yesterday W. Nikki*: was again brought to the
Mansion House, charged with having in his
sion an Exchequer Bill, stolen from Mr. Citt
counting house, almost four years ago, as stated in a
former Paper. Mr. Kent hearing that it was in the
prisoner's possession, who was then charged with
other offences, obtained a warrant to detain him. In
defence, he complained of this warrant having bees
put in execution, after so ion& a time, and said that
he had been confined in Warwick Gaol for two years,
and was given to understand that it was done away ;
that he had taken the Exchequer Bill in payment for
cheeses, in which he once was a dealer, from Benja.
min Shaw, in Walworth, (he afterwards said Wall.
brook,) but that the person was not to be found; and
again solicited his Lordship to put off the examina-
tion, that he might have it in his power to find out
Mr. Shaw. He was accordingly remanded.

COVET OF KING'S BENCH, JULY 31.
'ROGERS V. FORESTER.
This action arose out of a Charter party of affreight-
mem, and is of considerable importance to the mer-
cantile world, as embracing i question entirely new.
The facts of the case, as stated by the Counsel for the
plaintiff• appeared to be as follow
The defendant had contracted with the plaintiff,
who was master of a vessel called the Margaret, for
a voyage to Portugal, to take en board a cargo of
wine, and return to such port in this country as the
freighters should appoint; she accordingly arrived in
the -London Dock on the 26th August last, where she
was detained till the 26th October following. In tke
charter-party there was a covenant to allow the usual
and customary time ror unloading a vessel of her de-
mensions at her port of discharge, for a breach of
which covenant the present action was brought. Wit-
nesses were called by the plaintiff to give evidence as
to such usual and customary time, which it was con-
tended, by the usage of London, was seven days. On
the other hand, it was argued, that as the contract
was made in the month of May, 1809, four Tem
after the opening of the Londr a Docks, the platatif
must, or ought .to have been aware, that vessels
with wines were invariably unloaded in the order
in which they entered the dock ; and that, not
having provided against such an event, in his agree-
ment with the defendant, he could not now be per-
tnitted to prove any usage which existed independent
of the Docks, where he must have known she would
be obliged to deliver her cargo, should she be con-
signed to London.
Lord EcLesintmouou adverted to the hardship of
the case, and said he was at first inclined to admit
evidence what would have been the case, had the
merchants paid the duties instead of landing their
wines; but, as it had been proved that no instance
had ever occurred in which the merchant had paid
the duties on so large a cargo, he conceived the in-
variable practice of the London Docks must neces-
warily establish the usage of London in respect to such
vessels as enter the Dock.
In this opinion, after a short deliberation, the Jury
concurred.

LOCI" 4. WORRALL.

This was an action by the assignee of a Bankrupt
to recover back the sum of £2l 0, which it was alleged
that the Bankrupt had pitd to his brother, in contem-
plation of-his impending bankruptcy, and in undue
preference of his brother to his other creditors. Wor-
rall the bankrupt, being called, proved that he paid the
money in the month of June, and that at the time
when he paid it he was aware that his circumstances
were-such that he must become a bankrupt un'ess his
brother superseded him. His brother before that pe-
riod had been in the habit of advancing him money,
and upon that occasion he submitted a statement of
affairs 4o his brother, who flew into a great passion
with him, and would not support him any further.—
He was fully aware of the desperate state of his cir-
cumstances. Being asked by the Judge what was his
motive in paying his brother at that period, whether
to obtain his further support, or to save him harmless?
He replied, he did k in hopes that his brother -would
further assist him, and also that he might be as little
a sufferer as possible.
Lord ELLESBOROWU stated to the Jury, that any

creditor had a right to use diligence to get payment
of his debt, and any debt paid on such urgent request
could be good, but the bankrupt must not give pre-
ference to any of his creditors, and if he paid any one
*ith a view of favouring him above the general body
of creditors, it would be a void paymenr, and the As-
signees might recover each the money so paid.
The Jury found dui this was not a payment in
fraudulent preference.
AL:GtST I.—BREACH Or.„ PROMISE OF MAIMAGF.
IMO? v. Itkinorsorr.
Mr. GAMOW stated the case on the part of the
plaintiff.
This was an action brought to recover damages for
a breach of promise of marriage to his client. His
Client was a female, very amiable, very deeply insul-
ted, and very fully, as he trusted, entitled to the con-
sideration of the Jury. The defendant was a mer- ,
chanrof great opulence in the City. The parties had
been acquainted with each other upwards of sixteen
years, and*the intimacy had been cordial and friendly.
The intimacy had gradually become closer ;—bur,
about the middle of last summer, the defundant corn
menced a correspondence with the plaintiff, and de-
clared his intention of marrying her. The families
on both sides were apprised of this determination, and
the marriage was looked upon as settled finally. Let-
ters were continually received from the defendant, full
of the usual language of such an intercourse. The
letters were seconded by visits, and Mr. Robinson was
universally looked on as the professed admirer and
future husband of Miss Bishop. But just at this mo-
ment of expectation the history approached its end.
Miss Bishop received, on the 22d of September, a
Jong epistle from the defendant, detailing a series of
discoveries with respect to his own person, which
must have disgusted the feelings of an honourable
woman, as much as they would excite the ridicule of
the world. This exquisite lover, after a preface, in
which he detailed his opinions on the comforts of the
marriage state, broke out upon her with the intelligence
that he had, after a long, grave, and melancholy con-
sultation with his doctor, made the discovery, that
marriage was to have no comforts for him • that
n a.withstanding all his precautions to fit himself for
Blau imonial happiness, his hopes on that head were.
at an end ; and that Miss Bishop must of course al-
low him to retract the promise which he had thought-
lessly made her. This was conveyed in language un-
fit for pure ears to hear, and most insulting to the
Modesty and virtue of an honourable woman. His
conduct was naturally resented in the phrases which
it deserved • for it was not possible that there could
be too much contempt and indignation in the answer
which renounced such a man for a husband: This,
answer probably awakened the defendant to a sense
of' the consequences which must follow from his con-
duct, or it probably ap d to him to have fulfilled
the object for which is own vile letter had been
Written. It renounced him decidedly. Here he had
apparently gained his point, and thrown the rejection
Open the lady ; at what price, however, it would Bel
in the feelings of every man to judge. In four days
after, on the 28th of September, he wrote once more,
siter senjusing Miss Bishop to believe that WA

Peculiar ciremstantes 00)04 were not the regultni
any irregularities, congratulated himself upoo having
found another physician, who informed him, that his
first conception had been a mistake, and that he was
now at least circumstanced as others of his species....
This letter was felt as only adding insult to injury.
It was impossible that a respectable female could
stoop to an union with a person who had conducted
himself with the meanness and indelicacy of the de-
fendant. There was another resource to which she,
in common with every other injured person, had a
right to apply. It was the redress of law - and she
woultind that a British Jury would not suffer her to
lie at the mercy of such a personage as the defendant.
That defendant would be forced to make the only
retribution which she could condescend to receive
from him ; and he would learn, that the character
and feelings of a virtuous and delicate woman were
not to be insulted by caprice or indecency.
Evidence was then called to prove the statements
of the Learned Counsel. The letters were read, and
were-peculiarly and tediously disgusting.
Mr. PARKE addressed the Jury in mitigation of
damages. The defendant's inacquaintance with the
forms of courtship, and with the habits of females,
might considerably excuse the steps which, it was not
to be denied, he had taken. But the Jury in estimat-
ing the damages, were bound to consider the damage
actually done. They were not to let themselves be
carried away by the strong statements which were so
usual in cases of this nature. The damage done was
primarily the loss of Mr. Robinson's hand and affec-
tions ; and was it to be said by the Jury, that the lady
was peculiarly unfortunate in the loss ? The Jury
would consider the letters, and the language in which
they were couched ; it was scarcely possible that Miss
Bishop should feel herself seriously aggrieved by the
loss of the writer. But even those letters contained
nothing of what had been so studiously insisted upon;
and it would be altogether impossible to detect a line
in them whose intention was to insult, or sneer at the
plaintiff in the cause.
Lord ELLENeonotrort summed up the evidence,
and commented upon the defendant's conduct in
v ,ry indignant language. The defendant had not
thought it enough to trifle with the feelings of a wo.
man, against whose character nothing had been al-
ledged, but he had used a vile artifice to throw off
the punishment which he must be conscious of having
merited. He wrote a letter which implied a total
cessation of intercourse ; but in what language was
this expressed ? It was not possible to stigmatize it
too severely. And what was its object, independently
of the immediate insult to the feelings of a virtuous
female ? What was it, but to make her shrink from
coming forward to claim justice upon him ? He
reckoned upon the shrinking and pain with which a
modest and youthful woman would see those disgust.
ing lettere brought before the public eye, and ac-
knowledge that they had fi' st, with all their ha* de-
tails, passed under her own eye. His Lords] ip, after
enumerating the train of coarse, unmanly, and inde-
cent devices which had been practised in the transac-
tion, first to beguile, then to insult, and then to alarm
the feelings of the plaintiff; professed himself unwil-
ling to express his full indignation, and left the da-
mages to the Jury.
The fury without leaving the box, returned a ver-
dict for the plaintiff.—Damages £5OOO.

SIMPSON AND OTHERS V. WILSON.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated the case.
The plaintiffs, who were eminent merchants, had
ordered a quantity of lard from Waterford, and di-
rected their ship-broker, the defendant in the present
action, to have it landed at Cuper's Bridge wharf.
The motive of this order was, that the goods landed
at the wharf -in question were covered by an in-
surance, to the amount of £5OOO, of which £lOOO
was appropriated to Messrs. Simpson's possible losseF.
The lan.' was however Landed by Mr. Wilson at
Ralph's Quay; and in some time after, in consequence
of a fire which broke ont them was cottsumed. The',
present action was brought to recover the amount of
the loss which had been thus occasioned by the negli-
genet or error of the defendant.
Evidence to a considerable length, and of a very
complicated nature, was then gone into, to fix the or-•
der for conveying the lard to Ralph's Quay, on Mr.
Wilson. It appeared that the five hogsheads, of
which the order consisted, had been landed by the
mistake of the lighterman, and that the plaintiffs had
sufficient notice of their being landed where they were,
to remove them, if they had been so inclined, bef( re
the fire, which did not occur until fourteen days after.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, after vindicating his
clients from any improper motive in bringing the
action, consented to be nonsuited.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, AUGUST 1.
MONTAGU W. JANVERIN.

Mr. Serjeant Summar) for the plaintiff, stated this
to be an action of considerable interest to Admiral
and Captains in his Majesty's service. The plaintiff,
In the year 1808, was Port Admiral at Portsmouth,
and the defendant commanded the Pluto frigate,
then upon the plaintiff's station. Some time in the
latter part of that year the Lords of the Admiralty
transmitted an order to Admiral Montagu, to dis-
patch the Solebay frigate to Gijon, in Spain, with a
freight of 500,000 dollars, for the use of the Junta of
Leon ; and in the event of the Solebay having sailed,
or it being inconvenient to send her, to dispatch the
Pluto upon that service. The Solebay had sailed.l
and Admiral Montagu, in consequence, transmitted
an order to Captain Janverin, of the Pluto, to receive
the specie on board, and to proceed with it immedi-
ately to Gijon. The order was complied with, and
the specie was landed. Now, there has been a custom
in the navy from time immemorial, that when one
of his Majesty's ships is freighted with specie, the
commander is allowed a per tentage for that freight;
and it has equally long been a custom, which has
been acted upon by our Pococks and Keppels, and
lan our Admirals after them, and long before them,
that the Admiral under whose orders the vessel so
freighted sails, receives one third of the freight paid
Ito the Captain by Government. Yet, when the Agent'
of Admiral Montagu applied to Captain Janverin
for his share of the freight, that Officer refused to com-
ply with the demand ; mitt for one-third of £548,
the freight allowance in question, this action had been
brought.
Sir R. Curtis stated, that be had been 49 years in
the navy.
The Learned Comm) be about to alit what the


wes.eecie iLfin;.!oefor* 0n5141,,-.04000
IA that question 'was
put, he would beg lavve to date an objection to his
Lordship. He was authorized to state, that no Ad-
miral, Captain, nor any officer in his Majesty's navy
had, until lately, a right to receive freightage. On
Abe 10th of March, 1807, a correspondence took
place between the Lords of the Admiralty and the
Lords of the Treasury, in which the latter stated,
under the advice of the Law Officers of the Crown,
that no Officer of the navy had a right to freightage
for carrying specie ' • but that, as many of the Cap-
tains had detained certain sums from the freight,
their Lordships proposed to allow them a gratuity of
,one half per cent. on freights of specie, for the care and
custody thereof. Now, had the gallant Admiral any
4, care or custody" of this specie which was carried
to Gijon by the Pluto ? No ; he was lying snug at
Portsmouth, and had as ;ouch to do with it as he
(Serjeant Best) had. Now lee the answer of the
Lords of the Admiralty—, That, in the opinion of
their Lordships, no naval officer has any right to a
gratuity for the care and custody of specie or any
other freight which may have been put on board his
ship ; but if his Majesty should be graciously pleased
to grant an allowance of one-half per cent. to the
Commanding Officers of such ships as may be freight-
ed with specie, their Lordships had no doubt of its
being received with gratitude by the Officers," In
answer to this, the Lords 4.f the Treasury wrote—
ss that the Captains of ships carrying specie should
receive one-half per cent. which they considered fair
allowance, even if the specie was re-shipped." Tt
was therefore evident by these documents, which the
Learned Serjeant put in as evidence, that no Officer,
of whatever rank in the navy, could demand this al-
lowance ; but that it was a gracious boon from the
King to the Commanding Officers of ships freighted
with specie. Neither was the notification of this al-
lowance made to the Admirals (for they never carry
specie) but to the Captains and Commanders of his
Majesty's ships and vessels ; and the warrant for the
payment of the freightage at present in dispute was—,
G. R. 21st March, 11109.
" Our will and pleasure is, tf at you shall issue
!and pay to Richard Janverin, Esq. Commander of
our ship Pluto, 4548, which we graciously allow him
for carrying specie from England to Gijon ; and this
shall be to you, &c. ate. _

" To the Paymasters of Garrisons, &c."
SirJ. MANseir.to.—You need not trouble yourself,
brother Best, I shall receive the evidence. It is
strange that this should be brought before a Court of
Judicature. This appears to be a gratuitous boon to
"the Captains only.
Sir R. Curtis examined.—Stated it to be the usage
of the navy, since he remembered, that the Flag Offi-
cer received one-:bird of the freightage for specie.—
He himself had received it from one of his Captains
since he succeeded Admiral Montagu.
Lord Gambier stated • several instances where he
had received the third of the freightage, both for mo-
ney shipped by Government and by the Merchants.
Lord Hood deposed to the same effect.
Mr. Serjeant BF.s.r.—My Lord, I du not wish to
discuss this subject here.
Sir J. MANSFIKLEN—WeII, you may let the plaintiff
tike a verdict, and apply fur leave to enter a nonsuit
afterwards.

Mr. Serje3nt BEST.—Or, if your Lordship pleases,
make it a case.

Sir J. MANSFIELD.—WeII, make it a case, if you
please. Verdict therefore for the plaintiff ; but the
case will come on to be argued before the Bench
next Term.
Besides the witnesses examined, we noticed Sir R.
Bickerton, Sir R. Strachan, and other distinguished
naval characters on the Bench.

A melancholy occurrence took place at Parkgate on
Sunday se'nnigt►t. A party of eight persons took a
boat to sail on the river ; but not understanding the
management of it, in m:►king an injudicious tack the
boat upset, by which they were all precipitated.into
the water, from whence three only escaped with their
'lives.

YesterdAy D;clituon, who was convicted at the List
Westminster Sessions, of an assault upon a drum-boy
of the Guards, was exhibited, for an hour, on the
Tory at Charing-cross ; and received a most pitiless
pelting from the indignant multitude, with mud,
eggs, turnips, and other missiles. He is a well-look-
;lig young man, about 22, and was a waiter at
Hatchett's Hotel, Piccadilly. In the course of the
first ten minutes he was so completely enveloped with
mud and filth, that it was scarcely possible to dis-
tinguish his back from his front; and it was with the
utmost d:fficulty tl'A the peace officers could prevent
him from being torn to pieces by the mob, on his re-
, turn from the pillory to the prism.

WINO VAI'ED HEALTH.

IT has been toe fregstently the subject of just an!
general reprobation, that men destitute of the elements at
the medical art have of erred themselves as candidates for public,
patronage in the professiom of Physic. For the purpose of doing
justice to the result of our studies and experience, and to prevent
us from being classed among those empiric. whose impudent pro.
tensions have, unfortunately for society, been too favourably re.
ceived, we beg late to submit to the liberal and enliginated,
faithful statement of our pursuits and acquirements.
After having received a regular medical education.aa the papaw
of Messrs. Grit:dal and Blmard, whale lectures and practice wn
carefully attended, as Professor, and Surgeons ot the LoodonHer

school for medical acquirements, the Royal College of Man)
liur,fh, and were instructed in the different branches of Anatol%
Surgery, the Theory and Practice of l'hysic, Chemistry, Mid.
wifery, Botany, &c. &c. &c. by those eminent Professors, Des.
