LAW INTELLIGENbE:

COURT OF CHANCERY, JULY 3. ►.
• SCRUTON V. WADE, WARD OF COURT..
Sir ARTHUR PIGGOTT presented a petitionfrem Mr.
Bazeley, intimating his readiness to execute a,, deed
that the Court might deem fit, and praying, that in
consequence of hislong confinement, and the length
of time the deeds would necessarily occupy in being
drawn up, that he might be discharged without wait-
ing for that period, on undertaking to execute them.
The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed himself as most
anxious to have the case settled, but felt it his duty
to see that the property of the Ward and the infants
was taken care of. He had not the slightest wish to
put any obstacle in the way of Mr. Bazeley's liberty.
Sir ARTHUR PIGGOTT, after some further conver-
satiou, suggested that the Master might be ordered
to proceed forthwith.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said there was a shorter
mode of proceeding than this; he should see Mr.
Alexander, the Master, and give every facility in his
power towards the accomplishment of the prayer of
the petitioner.

LADY EMILY TEMPEST.

The SOLICITOR GENERAL expressed a wish to be
heard farther to-morrow in the case of Lady Emily
Vane Tempest v. Lord Stewart. The LORD CHAN-
CELLOR said, it was probable he would not sit to-
morrow, as it was the day for receiving the Medical
Report relative to the King's health, but that he
should probably hear the case further argued on
Monday.

IRISH ASSESSED TAXES.

Far HENRY PARNELL complained, on the Chancellor of
the Exchequer moving the other Orders of the Day, that his
motion for a Committee on the Irish Assessed Taxes had been
put olf from tune to time at the desire of the Chancellor of the
Exchequer. He wished his motion to come on immediately.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wished it still
farther postpooed, till some day when Notices should precede
Orders.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT objected to postponement, as inju-
rious to the interests of Ireland, there being a fuller attendance
of Irish Members than at any time during the Session. He
moved, instead of the other Orders of the Day being now read,
that the House should resolve itself into a Committee on the
Irish Assessed Taxes.
After some conversation between Mr. Psia, Mr. Thaniv,
Mr. Losontolow, and Mr. Daxats Baowits, Sir Jonas Nswicial
withdrew his Amendment.
London, England, 1818-05-09

of Steam-engines on board of Steam-vessels. The Bill was then
ordered to be read a third time on Wednesday next.
, The House then adjourned till Wednesday.

FROM THE MAIN, OCTOBER 19.

The system of defence which has been adopted by
the Military Committee of the Diet at Frankfort, and
submitted to that Assembly, proposes the establish-
ment of several new fortresses for the Confederation
on the Upper Rhine.
The pa incipal one will be established, accoreing
to the advice of the Committee, at Ulm, on the Da-.
nube, a place already celebrated in military annals.
It belongs to the King of Wirtemberg, and it will,
of course, be necessary to enter into negoc iAtions
with that Sovereign to induce him to give thisdesti,
nation to a city which is of much importance to his
kingdom.

Another fortress of the Confederation will be esta-
blished in the Grand Duchy of Baden, but it is not
yet agreed which city shall be selected for this pur-
pose. The Military Committee have proposed two
places, between which they have left the Diet to
choose; the one is Rastadt—the other Doneszhin-
gen. Itastidt is situated in a place, about a short
league from the Rhine, and at some distance from
the mountains, so that it cannot be commanded.—
Doneschingen, the residence of the Prince of Fersten-
berz;, is situated at the foot of the Black Forest (east-
ward of the mountains), and surrounded with hills
on which forts might be constructed. Every thing,
therefore, depends oa the question, whether it is
judged most proper to construct a fortress in the
neighbourhood of the Rhine, or rather at the en-
trance of those defiles by which we enter into the in-
terior of Swabia after passing the chain of the Black
Mountains?

Two forts of the Confederation will be constructed
in Rhenish Bavaria, one at Germersheim in front of
Spire, the other at Hombourg between Deuv Ponts
and Kayserslautern.

The Allied Powers will furnish the funds for the
construction of all these fortresses out of the sums
destined for this purpose from the war contribution
which has been paid by France.

VIENNA, OCTOBER 13.

A rumour has been prevalent here for some days,
which has caused a good deal of speculation, that our
Court is about to open a subscription for a new grand
Loan. The produce of this Loan is to be employed
exclusively in withdrawing the paper money from
circulation, the value of which has lately somewhat
improved.
London, England, 1818-10-30

HAMBURGH, OCTOBER 19.

A great division has broken out among the Jews
in this city, relative to the mode of celebrating the
ceremonies of their religion. A numerous party
among them have united in constructing a Syna-
gogue, which has a great resemblance to a Christian
Church, and the service even has some conformity
with that of the Christian Churches. These dissen-
ters are the objects of violent aiiicaadveision on the
part of the Rabbis and other Israelites attached
to ancient forms.

A younger brother of the celebrated banking-
house of Rothschild has lately espoused Mademoi-
selle Herz, of this City. An idea of the wealth of
this family may be formed from the value of the
gifts which have been distiibuted on this occasion.
The sum of 25,000 florins has been distributed
among the poor of all religions. Every one GI the
'numerous clerks of the house has received a gratifi-
cation of 100 ducats; and the presents have been
extended even to the humblest domestics. The new
married pair purchased a house, for 100,000 florins.

M. Rothschild has now five Banking Establish-

ments—at London, Frankfort, Amsterdam, Ham-
burgh, and Berlin, and he proposes to establish a
sixth at Petersburgh.

The plaintiff was Captain in the 6.1 d Regiment.
He had been in India for some time, during which
the defendant negotiated his money transactions to
a considerable amount. The sum sought to be re-
covered was £`9.5, but he was willing to take a ba-
lance of-e7l. Ss. 6d. which had been struck by the
defendant himself.

A letter of the defeniant's,, dated the 13th of Ja-
nuary, 18113, wherein he begged time for payment,
was read in evidence.

The defendant set up a plea of set-off, alleging
tharthe plaintiff was indebted to him for board and
lodging in the years 1804, 1805, and 1811.
The Court was of opinion, that the settlement
which was made bet Ween the parties, in 1813, went
to cancel :411 prior claims, and the Jury found for the
plaintiff in die sum of &271. Ss. Sd.

FRENCH FRONTIERS, SEPTEMBER S.

It has been again observed, that in the latter end
of the month of August, a number of British soldiers
have returned to their own country, and that no
others have come to supply their place.
All the regiments of British cavalry have marched
within these few days from the neighbourhood of
Cassel, in order to join the infantry and artillery in
the environs of Valencienres. This cavalry is of the
finest appearance. It is thought that the grand ma-
noeuvres will take place to-morrow, as the Duke of
Wellington is expected at his head-quarters at Cam.
bray to-day. The troops will afterwards return to
their former cantonments, in order to await the deci-
sion of the Allied Sovereigns respecting the evacua-
tion of France.

The order of march is already designated ; the
Prussian corps d'armee is to pass through the Grand
Duchy of Luxemburg and the territory of Treves ;
the Russian cavalry, after crossing the Rhine, are to
traverse Germany to proceed to Poland ; the Rus-
sian infantry and artillery are to embark at Dun-
kirk ; she English troops will march to Calais and
Boulogne, where they are to embark, after previously
selling a number of horses, and all that part of the
train which has become useless to them ; the Saxon
Corps will take the shortest road to the Rhine ; and
the Danish and Hanoverian Troops will pass through
Belgium.

Yesterday, at two o'clock, the PRINCE RECENT
held a Privy Council at Carlton House, which was
attended by the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, Earls
LIVERPOOL and MULGRAVE, Viscount SIDMOUTII,
Lord C. BENTINCK, the JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERAL,

HOUSE OF COMMON&

STATE TRIALS IN SCOTLAND.
The LORD ADVOCATE of SCOTLAND rose.
Having learned that a Noble Lord.(Lord A.'Hamil-
ton) had yesterday fixed his motion on the subject of
the late State Prosecutions in Scotland for that day
fortnight; but expressed, at the same time, a wish
to consult, as much as possible, his (the Lord Advo-
cate's) personal convenience, by naming aay other
day that might be found more suitable to him, he
now informed that Noble Lord, that as far as his
personal convenience was concerned, he would not
call on him to alter his notice; but the. Noble Lord
must be aware, that the absence of an individual in
the situation which he filled, for any length of time,
must be attended with great inconvenience to others,
as well as to himself. The Courts in Scotland were
all sitting at this time, and in the Court of Eacht-
quer, the presence of the King's Advocate was more
particularly .secessary. He was quite anxious and
ready to go immediately into the question, and that,
at the very first hour at which it could e brought
on. If the Noble Lord could bring it on in the be-
ginning of next week he should be ready—or indeed
any day during the week ; but if the Noble Lord
could not bring his motion on next week, he hoped
it would be postponed till after the rising of the
Scotch Courts.

Lord A. HAMILTON said, the Learned Lord
had placed him in rather an awkward predicament.
It must be manifest to the House, that this was not
`a question personal to hills and the Learned Lord.
He was willing to postpone the question to any day,'
not exceeding a month or five weeks from the pre-
sent time. But the Learned Lord asked a delay of
a much longer period. The Court of Session would
not rise till the 12th of March, and from the time,
when the Learned Lord could reach London, to the
Easter holidays, there would only be one single day
for his motion, namely, Tuesday, the 17th of Barth.
Now he would ask, if it was a fair thing tc request'
of him to consent to such a delay ? With respect tol
the other request of the Learned Lord, he, for his
own part, could have no objection to accede to it, if
he were the only person interested in the question,
but if the subject were brought on so soon, it would
prevent some Members from taking a part in the
discussion, who had been informed that the motion
would not come on before a certain day, and who
could not have an opportunity of being informed of
his change of intention. He was quite willing,
however, to put off his motion for three, four, or
even five weeks.

The SPEAKER observed, that it was extremely
unusual to accelerate a motion of which notice had
been given, by fixing afterwards an earlier day.—
Such a mode of proceeding was not consistent with
the practice of the House, and would be attended
with great inconvenience.
After a few words from Lord A. HAMILTON, the
subject was dropped, without any alteration of the day
for which the motion was fixed having been agreed to.
London, England, 1818-01-29

NORTHERN COUNTIES.

Mr. M. A. TAYLOR gave notice that it was his intr t n,
at a very early day, to submit a Motion to the House oetiOthe
propriety of holding Assizes twice a-year in the Northern Coun-
ties. In order that the House might be informed of the grounds
of the motion, he should, on Thursday sennight, move for a
return of the dates of the commitments and delivery of the per-
sons tried at the different assizes of the Northern Counties.
