111 E A.'l4tsidAt4,

ciplee of an English Court, of Justice to. *BOW
a party to be condemned Without being beard.—
It Could' not be consistent with the feeliks or
With the- duty of an English Bishop, sittieg as
It Judge, to examine into the fitnest of a clergy-
elan appointed to a Lectureship, to receive private
information, inferring charges of a heavy and calum-
nious nature against him, and to act on that informa-
tion without allowing the person calumniated an op-
iertuniti of 'meeting the charge, or of vindicating
WAAL Dn. Povah had done every thing that he
eduld to eaitisfy the Bishop, as to the falsity of the
charge made against him, relative to Infant elaptiim.
' He had furnished him with the manuscript notes of
his sermon on that subject; and had offered to briki
witnesses before him, who would completely dis-
. prove the charge. All of this, however, the Bishop
had refused to admit; and Dr. Povah now applied'
for a Writ of Mandamus to the Bishop to hear him,
and to decide. The question was one of fact—Vadl
Dr: Povah preached against Infant Baptism, in-which`
else there would be no question as to his uerttnels,
or had he not? This was a question that involved the'
character and happiness of Dr. Povale and, being a •;
question of fact, he had a right, in the event of the
opinion of the Bishop being against him on thii
pint, to have the opinion of a Jury also. 'Admit-
tite to the Bishops all right to judge as to scholastic
Learning and ecclesiastical fitness, the Learned Counts 1.
sel submitted th .t this was net a time to exclude from '
the Pulpits of the Established Church, men of es-
trot, rdinary a-quirements, and to leave cases of this ;
kind to the Bishop untried. All they wished was to
be heard before the Bishop, not in any way to force
his conscience. 1
Mr. BROUGHAM, on the same side, expressed 'hill
satisfaction, that however;their Lordships Welt de- !
cide this case, not a man could leave that Court with.
out being satisfied that 'Dr. Povah's character was
completely vindicated from the aspersions of heresy
and ' schism, with which it had been loaded, the ;
greater part of which bad now been abandoned, and
the remainder disproved by a cloud of wituesses.—
The Learned Counsel remarked on the various turns i
which the course of the Bishop's objections to Dr.
Povah had taken—originating in his not being •in
priest's' orders—from thence changing to a charge or
heresy in denying infant .baptism : again, to tot
Clerk to the "Vestry, when the objection, which'
'could easily have been answered if made publi4
placing his objection on file want of priest's orders';
and. when that objection was removed, again 'tee
sor'ing to the charge of Dr. Povah's having discoun-
tenanced infant baptism in his discourses. The
Learned Gentleman entered into a view of that se-
parate class of the community set apart for holy Or-
ders, and argued, that ns their holy profession was
entirely unconnected with secular emolument, so to
extent they were rightly under the controul of a Ble
shop. Wherever temporalities, however, began to
be an object, they ceased to be considered merely
in a spiritual point of view, and coming to partake
of 'secular matters, the right of the Spirituel Judge
began to cease, and that' of the Temporal Judge to
prevail. Of this kind were Rectories, Vicarages,
&c. which being supplied by the patrons from among
the class of clerks, or men in holy orders, the Bi-
shop, almost as a matter of course, fell to license
them. if this was so, he asked, what ought to be
the mighty distinction between the induction into
Rectory in the gift of an individual patron, and the
licensing to a Lectureship in the gift of a great luny
respectable persons ?—lf the fullest remedies were
recognized and allowed in the one 'case, was it con-
sistent, was it fair, was it becoming, fleet there
should he no remedy in the other?—And should it be
IA to the. Bishop to say—" 1 so will it—such is my
pleasure ?"—lt had been ruled in all the cases on
this subject that a Bishop, in such a situation, acted
as a Judge. The duty of a Judge was to examine,
mike* hear the evidence on both sides—not to shut
his eyes against one side of the question. If he so
acted he was anworthy of the character of a Judge,
and demeaned himself in a very different manner
from what was becoming. This, he contended, was
shown' from the cases on the subject, to all of
which he refea red ; and on the whole contended,
that Dr. Povah being at the time a person is holy
orders, ought to have heels admitted to the Lecture-
ship in question, bad-right to the protection of those
principles laid down-in the various cases, particular-
ly that of the. Archbishop' of Teri ; and that, 'bey.

to be examined, he dame before them entitled to

TUE LATE bloanens.--Yesterday Hart was dig-
' charged from his confinement, on suspicion of being
concerned in the' Mars and Williamson's•mnrders.—
Albion was seen in the company of the suicide Wir- 1
1 limns on .the night of Williainsons' murder, atthe
1-Black Horse public-house, New Gravel-lane. / They
retired, and went to the King's Arms, where Alblass
left Wiliams. To prove the Let -of 'Alblass going
I home was the subject• of many investigations, and
the examinations terminated in the complete dis-
charge of Alblass from confinement.
! Hart, in the first instance, was examined at the
Thames Police Office, on suspicism of being acces-
sary to Marrs' mqrder, in consequence of a tool be-
hig found in the house, supposed to belong to his
employer. On this charge he was acquitted, from
.the respectability of the witnesses, who proved that
Mart was in their company, and at borne, at the
time of the murder of Marr's family. After Hart's
4.discharge, it unluckily •for him happened, that on
the evening of Williamsou's murder he was inff4i-
located, and when the officers were searching for
i disorderly characters they discovered him sitting at
,the door of his lodging, which was opposite to the
Pear-tree public-house. Hart was again examined
' by, the Magistrates at the Shadwell Office four times
1 and 'afterwards delivered over to Whitechapel, Raj
nothing criminal appearing, be was discharged, on-
( der an assurance he was forthcoming on future in.,,
i quiry.

The fistic amateurs are much employed in discus-
sious relative to the late do betwixt two inconsiderate
millers. Much leaf net! discussion has tak,pn place to
persuade the flat party bets must be paid, do or no^
do ; but it will bee difficult matter to inculcate this
doctrine as a matter of right. Muck knock-itox.n
argument had been used on the occasion.
On the 28th of June, William Bob* Vurlton
Bennet, Esq. was brought to the bar of the Supreme,
Court, at Calcutta, and tried for the raur6rof
Tukoora Kulleefa, on the 21th of November list, at
Daup, Daup, in the. district of Rungpore. The evidence
for the prosecution being gone through, the Jury,
after a short deliberation returned their' verdict--
Manslaughter. Upon the verdict being recorded,
the Prisoner was directed to pray the Iserieflt bf cle4cy,
which being done, the Cute Justice, after a very
suitable stud pathetic address, sentenced the 'Defend-
! ant to be imprisoned in the gap! of Calcutta for six
months, and to pay elm of -100 rapees. .
! Tuesday afternoon.aboit two o'clock, two houses
(which have been in Chancery for several years past)
in Great Wild-street,' Lincoln's-inn-fields, occupied
`by a chersemonger, fell down' with a tremendeue
i crash. An elderly woman who resided in the second
Boor, who bad been troubled with a rheumatic com-
plaint for several months past, and was bed-ridden,
on hearing the will cracking, immediately screamed
! out and alarmed the other lodgers, who fortunately
ran np.stairatime encugh to save •her. The furniture
I'ef the inmates was immediately thrown out of the
{windows in great confusion, .and. two ladders were.
` placed in Ironed ono of. the houses, by which sere-.
ratof the inmates made their escape. An. adjoining,
bonse, occupied' by Mr. • Martin, boobtseller, re-'
kffleived much damage. Yortuuately there were

he expected soon to realize in the company of his

isadtormed a new connection, and "had no further
accasien for his services ; that she had set her affections
on another man, who she preferred, and by whom
she wet pregnant, and *therefore refused his em-
braces. The husband finding she was serious, and
I.all remonstrance to recover her was unavailing, he!
sold this 'faithless rik„to her new amoral* for 10s. 6d.
