COURT OF CHANCERY, MAY 17.
TUT AND CORPORA now ACTS RIPEAL RILL.
(THE NEW DECLARATION.)
Shortly after the Lord Chancellor had taken his seat
this morning, the Right Hon. Henry Goulburn, Chan-
eellor of the Exchequer, appeared in Court, and publicly
made and subscribed to the declaration—that he would
not exert any influence he might possess by virtue of his
office, to the injury of the Protestant Church, as by
law established, agreeably to the form prescribed by the
Act Of. Poliiment for the Repeal of the Test and Cor-
poration Acts.

DRW R. CLARER.
Mr.-Rusatu. informed his Lordship, that a petition
had been filed in this cause,_ praying that he might ad-
vise his Majesty to issue a -Commission of Review, for
the purpose of having the decision pronounced by the
Court of Con-delegates re-considered. The Learned
Gentleman assured his Lordship that the case was of the
most pressing nature, as one of the defendants was con•
fined io the Fleet Prison ; he therefore trusted that the
Court would come to a determination triton the petition
on an early day.
After some discussion as to whether his Lordship was
to decide upon the allegations of the petition, or whether
it would be necessary to hear Counsel on both sides, and
thus, in fact, re-hear the entire case,
The LORD CRANCZLLOR said that he would make
inquiries,with the view of ascertaining the usual practise
in such cases.

COLVIILE V. 146WIRRRY.
This was an action brought by the shipper of aquan.
thy of indigo atitstrgeroa board the Penson, Beecham,
master, from - the river googly to London, against a'.
part owner of the vessel,
.to recover the value of the
goods, which were not delivered- according to the di,
pulations of the bill of lading which was signed by the
master.
By the charterparty made between the owners and
the master, the latter guaranteed a certain sum for
freight to the owners for the voyage, and was to keep
the surplus for himself'; but if die master misconducted
himself during the -voyage, he was to be deprived of
the lialrentod by an agent of the owners, who was put
on hard. ..
The defence was, that the *Woos were not liable, for
that the vessel was hired by the mister for the voyage.
On the other bide, it was seplied.that there were no
words of demise is the charterparty, and that the con-
tract was
,stalte particular way oi.paying his master's'
w ages. ` ' , • . - ,:, .

The defendant appeared on' the Onstriellut Vourt to
receive judgMent ander- it criminal istibrusation, for
writing a letter to Mr. Charles Dawson, an titters*, -of
this Court, to provoke that Gentlamig to fight-a duel.
The defendant at first pleaded 'Tot Guilty. tO the in-
formed( its, bet be afterwards withdrew-his defence, and
pleaded Guilty. • . .
On ihe'pait of thepietifeutlisti the affida4k Of. Mi.
Dawson was now read. It stated, that in Maras* last
that Gentleman was employed: pasfessionally by Sir
Anthony Hart, now Lord • Chancellor of Ireland, to
make inquiries of the defendant.vibe was a practilidg
Barrister at Law, and was peryissg his addresses to Miss
Elisabeth Hart, Sir Anthony's daughter,'respectiog the
nature of his (the delendant's) property, in order-to as-
certain whether it 'Was suffiiient to make a cettlenlent of
twelve hundred poi n& per annum on the yin Lady,
according to the defendant's proposals. Mr. Dawson
communicated the result of his inquiries to Sir Anthony
Hart, who was of opinion that the defendant's property
was founded upon building. speculations, which might
lota tight not-turn out prefitable, and that therefore the
basis of his income was void- of the solidity necessary to
give effect to hti proposals. After some farther expla-
nation from tire defendant, Mr. Damson communicated
Sir Anthony's objections to him, and his wish that fur-
ther correspondence on the subject should cease. The
defendant-toek no notice of this-till the 28th of April,
abo'Ve a Month arter 'tags-hie *wrote a letter to Mr. D.
- is *hick. after charging Mrs Dawson with acting with
duplicity in the conduct of the inquiry that be bad.beas
Making into his prepdity,,.lite caned bins a liar and a
villain, and said that if his cewudice was not a shield
for his villainy, he would-follow hinter Calais, and give
hint the satisfaction of a Gentleman: Mr. Dawson an-
swered this letter by 1.11060'1;M whicii-he said it would
not be necessary for W.. *awn to go to Calais, for
that the Court of Hing`fr Beath was the only place in
which he could think of meeting him.
An MEd** made by Sit Anthony Hart was next
-read, deposing that be had employed Mr.l)awson for
the purpose of inquiring into the sufficiency of tbe de-
. fondant's property, and that he inteaded-te have con-
sented to the marriage if these inquiries had turned out
satisfactory.
The defendant pot is as oirtdavit, in which he stated
that be-became acquainted - with Sir Anthony Hart in
1821, and that he was invited by him to spend the va-
cation at his country house. Mims be gained the affec-
tions of Miss Hart, who was then about eighteen years'
of age, he himself thentweuty-five; that Sir Anthony'
knew of his addresses to his daughter, and that he never
collected any objection from him to the match, except
on the ground of the inadertuacy of his property. That
be wrote the ofensive letter to Mr. Dawson in a moment
of irritatioo, under the impression that Mr. D. had
charged him with making statements that were untrue,
respecting the nature of his property, and that. he after-
ward,. offered to apologise for what he had said, if Mr.
D. would deny that he had made such intimations.
,fir JAMES SCARLET? addressed the OMR in aggra-
vation of punishment, and cempliined of the calumnies
(Las had been circulated against Sir Anthony Hart ; and
that his name had found itt way int* the newspapers,
although he and his.Liarned Friend, Mr.-Brougham;
had carefully abstained from using it, on the applit .
to t1...e criminal information.
Mr. Sergeant WiLDE spoke in mitigation of pnaish-
Mem, and disclaimed every thing in the shape of a itin.,l
dication of the Defendant's conduct ; he himself bad'
-fer=cl„ in his cooler moments, too just a notion of the
character of his offence to feel any thing but contrition
for it. - He could call Sir Anthony Hart to witness, that
th
his conduct was such on all other occasions as to rend
bias unobjectionable as his son-in-law, setting atide
consideration of property.
Mr. Justice BATLEY passed the sentence of the Court,
which was—that the Defeedatit should be imprisoned'

YORKSHIRE SOCIETY.
s, •
A meeting of this Society was held at the London
Tavern on Saturday, in commemoration of their anni-
versary. The Hon. WILLIAM DuNoostillri M.P. Pre-
sided. The Earl of Halewood was on the right of the
Chairman and Lord Morpeth on his left. Mr. Marshall,
the Hon*. S Lascelles, and several other persons of
rank, were also present.
Thensual loyal and patriotic toasts having been disposed
-of, the Secretary read a report of the proceedings of the
.Society, since the last annual meeting, and. reported the
amount i'f subscriptions received in its aid to be nearly
5001. Shortly after the removal of' the cloth, the chil-
dren of the charity were introduced : they were dressed
in a very ,neat manner, and showed evident signs of
good health and good treatment.
On the health of " the Presidents" being drank, the
Earl of HARBWOOD returned thanks. He was of opi-
nion that the number of objects on .the foundation
appeared very inadequate to the wealth and importance
of Yorkshire. It was to be hoped that the present
number would not only suffer no decrease, but that the
bounty of their Society might be conside,rably extended.
(A nplaus.e.)
His Lordship subsequently proposed the health of
the Chairman, which was drank with every demonstra-
tion of cordiality and respect.
The company (which was very numerous and re-
spectable) retired at -a late hour, apparently much
gratified by their entertainment.

HIGHLAND SCHOOL SOCIETY.

Saturday the Society established in London for pro, '
motiog tskteeden in the Highlands of Scotland, held ,
their anniversary dintverat the Freemasons Tavern.—
His Grace the Dube of St. Albans took the ehairiin the
absence of his Royal 'Highness the Duke of Sussex, the
President, who was unfortunately unable to attend from
indisposition. The' company was numerous and re-
spectable, though several Gentlemen and Noblemen
of distinction (connected with Scotland) whose presence
had been calculated upon, were, from other avoca-
tions, under the necessity of sending apologies.—
Among the latter was the young Duke of Buccleuch,
who sent to the meeting an excellent prosy by the hbtads
of the secretary, in the shape of a donation of 1001.0;--
Alderman Sir PaTtit LAtraig, who is the 'Leninisr to
the Society, and who has always taken a warm interest
in its prosperity, stated the history of the institution,
eulogised its objects,. and enumerated the various con-
trihutions which it had transmitted to the parent estab-
lishment in Scotland. .The very liberal subscription of
upwards of 6001. was announced by the. Secretary as
the collection of the evening, and the names of dui-
contributors were read. On the healths of Mr:
%Thigh:on, coupled with the Scotch Bar, and of Dr.
bleikiejohm coupled with the University of Edina,
burgh, being drank, thy Learned Gentleman and Row.
Doctor returned thanks in appropriate speecher., But
what gave most interest to the proceedings of the evening
was a hospitable kind of intercourse by deputationes
which took.place between' the. Highland School Society
and the Highland Society, which happened to be. dining
in the same tavern. The health of the High:and society
being drank, a deputation was sent to acquaint•it with
the tact. In a short time afterwards the latter :Yentas&
the compliment and deputed-steers; of their body to
announce it. The deputatioi, tit the bead of which was

highland garb, preceded by hag-pipers. T4e'esteis..h

very amusing to the southern portion of the cokbpalli!
, The magnitude of the subscription, howeyere:Which
amounted to nearICOL in the course of ther.evening,
and nearly the half of which came from Englishmen,
affords the best proof that the meeting did uot, in the
midst of this scene of festivity and hilarity, neglect the
more serious duties for which it bad asseagieds •4••

It is a curious fact that Holland was the first State to
which the Porte granted the privilege of free passage
for its vessels into the Black Sea—the Treaty in which
the agreement was stipulated having been signed so far
back as the year 1680; end yet it was only in 1820
that the Porte first consented to the execution of that
Convention, by offering firmans to the Mitch ships to
proceed to Odessa and Taganrog.. The clauses which
relate to that navigation bad remained dormant all the
while, and it required no less than two years of nego-
ciation to persuade the Porte that they had not thereuy
been rendered nugatory. - The first Dutch vessel, how.
ever, which has availed itself of the renewed privilege,
only arrived at Odessa on the 4th of April last.
A murder, perpetrated about five years since, has
been brought to light by the stings of conscience. On
Monday last, a private in the Royal African Corps was
landed at Portsmouth, in confinement, on his own con-
fission of having murdered a man at or near Haver-
hill, in this county, by wzy-laying him. He suddenly
knocked him 'down, and threw his body intathe ditch,
where it WiS found, and an inquest was held by J.`..:'-'ay-
man, Eel. whee a 'verdict of found drowned was re-
corded, but hastened, as it was supposed, by the ill can-
'duct of the wife and daughter of the deceased, who
were very severely admonished by the Coroner. It ap-
pears, as far as we can learn, that the culprit had been
liberated from Norwich Castle a short time previous to
his arrival at Haverhill, where he obtained work as a
tailor, at Mr. Sparhall's, of that place; that he was
drinking at a public-house, and saw the deceased in
possession of some money ; that he way-la;d him, and
after he had knocked him down and rifled his pockets,
he was alarmed at some noise, and threw the body into.
the ditch to avoid discovery ; that be thence made his
way to Long Stratton. in Norfolk, where he married;
be then not being able to rest, enlisted, and subse-
quently committed some offence,.to avoid the punish.
meat for which he v..lunteered into the above regi-
ment; and whilst at Sierra Leone, he made the above
Confession, and was in constoence sent home bi ilae
authorities of that colonp—lpswich Chronic*.
