In consequence of what passed with mud to (hit
case on Saturday last, the 'Mart *SR this morningl
crowded, but no motion of any kind was made by
either side, contrary to (he eipeciition* of the Whole
Court.
Mr. Rostra, just at the rising of the Court, ad.
dresied hit' Lordship. " My Lord, previous to your
leaving the Court,allow me to mention in theme of
Tempest and'Ord, for the •purpose of relieving the
anxiety of the parties, and to give no farther trouble
to the Court, Chit k is net intended on the part of
Lord Stewart to make any further motion to the
Court. The moan" of the other parties have been
mistaken, Inti I have so wish ve make any a-ppli-
catibn."
LIBERTY OF THE SUBJECT.
CASE or THE RANIRUrT CRAWLEY.
It will be recoiled that mention has been made of
this case in some of oar preceding Reports. It wills
an application for a writ of habeas Corpus, to dia.
charge the bankrupt oat of custody : the motive, was
opposed on the ground that there nopower
in the Lord' Chencellor to pent:lWO; -deHabeas
Corpus its the vacation.
'rhe case has undergone a long argamiht !In` both
!sides, and his Lordship this day, ii. pursuance to the
'intimati'en he had gives*, decided the case by his lodg-
ment, thereby deciding the future practice of the
Court- on this important question affecting so ma-
terially the liberty of the subject.
The Loa° CHANCELLOR enquired whether any no.
tics tad been given to the Commissioners of Bank-
rupt we, this motion ?
Mr. ROSE replied in the negative. He believed no
one appeared on behalf of the Commissioners.
Tile LORD CHANCELLOR understood that there
were more than one action against the Commissioners
for this very commitment, arid it appeared that the
bankrupt was pressing his dikehatge, in order to en.
hance the damages upon the action. Under these
circumstances, he should think himself bound to
hear any Gentleman who shuuld appear to-mortow on
behalf of the Commissioners; but he should now pro.
teed to declare the opinion be had formed, after a
very long and laborious examination into the various
authorities for sod against the Application. The
maxim of the law, was, that the wilt of Habeas
Corpus was a very high prerogative inherent in the
Crown, by which the King had a right of enquiring
into the cause why En), of his subjects were de.
prived of their liberties. The first sullied') to
which lie should refer was' that of Lord Coke,
who, in his Readings upon Magna Charts, had
declared that the Court of Chancery had the right
of issuing writs of Habeas Corpus, in the vacation
as well as in Term time ; giving as hia reason, that
this Court was officina jusiiiire, and was never ed.'
journed. Lord Coke also, in page 81 of his,
4to. Institates, took notice of this poser of the
Court of Chancery, and observed that " this Covell
is the rather always open ;" and gave the special rea.
son, that if a man be wrongfully imprison,-1 in the
vacation, the Lord Chancellor might do him justice
according to law. Neither the Court of King's
Bench nor the Common Pleas could grant writs of
Habeas Corpus out of Term, hat the Coert of
Chancery could grant them at any time. In page'
182, spe.sking of the remedy for unjust impri•oie-
ment, and in page 9.90, tlisrus4ing the Fore-t Laws in
the 4th Institute, 1, oil Coke also touched t pod this
question, and re..isserted his former deck otiose,
that ex debito jusiiti‘e a subject Was entitled to a
writ of II ebea. Col i•us out of Chancery at all times.
His Loerlship ties. referred to the Statute 16 Car. 1.,
which made certain regulations relative to the Prig,
Council, abolished the High Coert of Star Chamber,
and gave the Courts of King's Bench and Common
Pleas a poser to interfere io favour of the subject,
and to grant writs of Habeas Corpus in certain cases
mentioned its the Statute. This, his Lordship ob-
served, was a Statute by which it was impossible to
&Kenai,' what were the powers of the Court of King's
,Bench, as far as regarded these writs out of l'erm,
or what was the power of the Common Pleas
in these respects, either in or out of Term. The sta-
tute took no notice of the Court of Chancery. At
preterit, throe could be no doubt but that the King's
Bench could issue writs of 11abeas Corpoi, both in
and nut of Term, and t e Cnnimon Pleas also,
with a few exreptiona. Toia power was given to the
later Corr, by tnedoe igloo given in the famous case
of •• 13ustieet" repotted in Vaughan. The nest great
authority on this point was that of Lord Chief Jus-
tice who .had followed the example of Lord'.
Coke its deciding, that the Lord Chancellor had the
presser of granting writs of Habeas Corpus in vaca-
ti.tn. He considered this opinion of Lord 'Hale to
be of great weight, repot' being being had to the time
in which his Lordship bad lived, and the various im-
portant effices he had filled. It would be recol-
lected, that 1.,0 Hale was made a Judge of the Com-
mon Pleas in 1653, a Lord Chief Baton its 1660, and
a Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench in 1671.
Ile resigned that office in 1675, and died in 1676.—
It appeared, therefure, that Lord Hale lived in a
period when he must have been extremely conversant
with what were the different notions entertained in
the various Courts of Westminster-hall, as to what
construction was In he put upon the Statute of the
16th Charles I. It was then the opinion of Lord
Hale, that " by virtue of the Statute of Magna
Charts, and also by Common Law, writs of Habeas
Corpus may issue out of the Chancery, hut it seems
regularly that this writ should issue from the Court
of Chancery in vacation, and from the Court of King's.
Bench its the Term time
.only." Lord Hale had
therefore adopted that snot prieci?le ope which

Court of Chancery, being the dicina justitice, was
considered to possess that poen oil all occasions. It
Might, indeed, be sskee.why the Statute of 16 Cat. 1.

the Court of Chancery? His -wilesoer was, that. lie
thought it amply sufficient, that Lord Hale, so well

would not hare laid down this doctrine ,go forcibly,
if he had not thought this Statute of oe effect, as far
es regarded this questioo, His Lordship, after hair.
ing read et some length Ow opioion of, LoolChief
Justice Wilmot, delitered nn that famous case• of
Jenks, proceeded to state, that previous to the Re-

of the King's attach in tracatiou4,.end it, was quite
clear that, until Burcheics cite,. thq.Jodvs, of the
Court.of Com Mon pleas had no idea that theyin had

subject betweco the, passing of. Maggio Charts, and,
the passing of the Act 342 ,Car. 01, jf the Judges q
Westminster-Hall thought that one Court only had
the power of issuing writs of Ilabe‘a Corpus in Term
time ? The case of Jenks was certainly a positive
1 authority that Ake then Loud Chancellor 'could not
grant the writ in vacation ; but it did not appear to
him, that all the consideration which atiaht bile been
given to the subject bad been given hi,' case. which
was of ao doubtful a nature. He did not think that
Jenks's case was one of sufficient strength to be.,
.him up ag limit the torrent of doctrine which he had
found iii so many able writers, and particularly in a
castin which the liberty of the subject was so ma-
terially concerned. It appeared, therefore, to him
to he his duty to gent the spPlicatiOn for the writ ;
but et the same titee he could not help observing, that
there was great Inconvenience in applying for such an
instrument to this Court: if the subject, however,
thought proper to avail himself of this right, as he
understood the law, he could not salvo jaramento re.
fuse it. lie would hear any Gentleman appearing on
behalf of the Commissioners to-morrow morning, as
to the form of the commitment.
WATERS V. TAYLOR.
Mr. HART applied to the Lord Chancellor to die.
miss an order made by his Honour the Vice-Chan-
cellor, directing a sum of 8,6001. to be paid into
Court by Mr. Waters, within a fortnight. Mr.
Waters, he contended, had no right to be called on
to pay it, he having a lien on the property
in his character of Executor to Mr. Gould, and
that he was also entitled 'to deduct the sum in
question from his purchase.money. (The case bas
bell' so often before our Readers that it it would be
unnecessary to enter at any length into the argu-
ments used on the occasion.)
Mr. BARBER was also heard on the same side.

ORDER OF COURT.
The LORD CHANCELLOR.—" Wednesday will be
the nest Seal, and let this my eider he understood,
that I will not take any motion after Wednesday, of
which the briefs are not delivered by the Solicitors to
Counsel before that day, for I stn determined the
neat Seal shall not be like the lest, • which we have
not yet got out of. I certainly attach Wattle to my.
self for my indulgence, which has disarranged the
order of the proceedings vf the Court, by which
means I em now hearing motions when .1 oyght lobe

and 1701. a year; and that it'amoanted, in one par-
