the Court might be aptisfsert 'gab a . Petition

met to base the reference. to the bilestee, he 1
. liberty teats so. If a eterriap betwola a weld
the Covorteed the party applying, was se teidelally,
improper, that jt ought not, to bsr permitted, dig
most salutary mode would be twilit' at once that the
• proposals should not be referred. • Ile desired to be'
understood as applying these•oheetvations generally,
and not alone to the particular cue.
Sir A onun Ptneorr °beetled, that Lord Stewart',
first Petition having beets defective, in not oiling his
property, be had now presented .another, sepported
by so affidavit, describing the nets's, of his property,
espectations, and actual situation ; be had• enume-
rated ids pecoaiory resources as a military officer,
,ond as a diplomatic agent, besides perional estate to a
very large mount. lie presumed this would re.
more any objeCtiou against the Noble Lord having
. his proposals gefersed..• Why Was this to stand over
• br.eauses *lnd** was depending against Lady Antrim,
for having dose...what /7.encooraeed * marriage be.
tween her daughter and a person of high rank !
. sits, gi.iing.ix saidt there wee enough in his W-
eirs/liens to continuo him that Lady Aotrim bed
planned the marriage between Op parties before they
harkever men each other. Could his Lordship order
..a reference of proposals of • marriage, while there
• was an application pending against the guardian of
the ward, requiring that she might be reetraiued from
all intercomse with the ward,- ors account of the
course
.of conduct she had adopted'. There were
objections against Lord Staniar& which bad nut refer-
, aucp.to property 0541. . • • •
lint Lpsn Ca annat.Loe apprehended, thin in the
.ruisisoi an infant, there was we such thing as an ad.:
. herrn*" to regolatity of practice, so as to induce the
-Awes. who leasi she homely to sit when be did to
,t ink it *net to bear any thing that might be for the
.benelit of the intent. Whether the application to re-
strain Lad/ Antrim frets having intercourse with her
daughter Rupp; in the presence of her governess was
granted or notv.iso ride fooaded on the segelarity of
practice, should indoce him, in the mean time, to re-
fer the petition of Lord Stewart.
Mr. HART remarked, that Lady Antrim had more
,fee)ing.for others than herself. tier object was only
to -protect her daraghter, end prevent those family
,discussions, the effect.of which dwelt on the minds of
these connected with her, as well as herself. If the
upplicalion of Lord Stewart was referred to the
Mauler, and the Master should be of opinion that his
proposals were 'nib as it would be for the interest qii
'the Lady the Court shoeld accede, to it, in that CUM
all ulterior discussion would be unnecessary.
The Loan CIRANCELLOR said, the Court was placed
in this sue in,a singular situation. In all cams,
this kiod, the Corti had a duty to perform the meat
painful to a judicial man. With respect to one's own
family, It was difficult to know what to do •, bet
with regard to others. there were principles to be at •
tended to whiCh the Court could got overlook. 'this
was the first iustance whereat reference of the sort had
been refused ; and knowing it was to be opposed, he
.had felt it incumbent on him to consider the principle
ou which tie ought to act. If Lord Stewart had been
ll man of no property whatever, he , should have de-
..
. cided .against his pretensions without any re-
,liienee. 13e should act in the same manner, if any
man as old as himself was to•apply to marry a ward •
of the Coort only l 4 year of age.. Whether, in the
,present cam!, there was ;tiny well founded objection
toil reference to the, &teeter. .rin.‘ll,nt .h. could!not

had been any thing ia.tke caw reapectlno the.conduct
of the ward herself, he sh,onld, netwitioteading all
that hid been.said of private hearings, bean dispensed

'of the Colin. Lettl *Stewart was too Much a man of
honour to attempt nony thing of the kind, andwoold
ttegitive the easertion in the itroagesileillti.
'• The Lotto Ctt A Netr.r.oti said this este came before
-him under these ciresnistanc#s:—lt was an applies.
don to restrain Lord Steitatit from contracting mar-
riage with a. Ward of the Cdurt, and other usual re-
:4441,1ff. 'There! was en 'affidavit that satisfied him

presented a petition' praying that Lord Stewirt's pro. '
peasle Might be referred to the Master. Ile never
Terheinbered en Application of the kind, escept by
the-person himself who had made the proposals; and
'how could he know whether, even if be ordered the
reference, it Would be with the approbation of the
• perton by whom the proposals hid been made. An
application was then made to prevent lady Antrim
from havidg any intercourse with her daughter.—
' The ratifier' now came before him ; and he would ob-
' terve, that, in a cote of thil kind, referring it to the
Matter withait any thing being publicly said, arose
from this—that it often -happened enquiries might be
carried on in amore satisfactory Manner, and with
iefs prejudice to the parties, in the Measles. Office
their in open Court. It had also been customary
with him, at the desire of all parties, to hear cases
of this kind 'in his private room ; 'for he took it to be
the rule, 'that the Poblic had tio right to interpose
where both parties wished the discussion to be pri-
vate; hot it was not a legitimate egereise of the
' Chancellor's power to hear any Case private?, where
one of -the parties • did riot conser4.
,There tea no
waylby which he Cone become acquainted tritili-the
;fads, but by reading 'the affidavits, or by having
them stated to him.

Iitt:7gOtICTIVR-GENERAL, on the part of Lord
Sievert, said he had no objection to his Lordship's
reading the affidavits : if that was not acceded to, he
he* re would heir them stated in his private room.
Mr SAMUEL 110111 ILLY said, he had on a former
occasion stated that he dM not consent to the Lord
Cilissel►llbr's reading the affidavits. 116 desired that
tNd illittoiits which related to the circumstances of
r Lord Stesiares introduction to Lady Tempe.t should
be pubilcly reed. If Lord Stewart pressed for the
'refeteisee, he could only answer him by reading the
afulaiiit which Was made the ground of the applies':
lion against Lady Antrim.
The LORD CDATACELLOR repeated, that if in the
ease of an infant, there were any affidavits which
' would convey information to the Court, he must hear
them reit& His Lordship desired that the further
discussion of this matter might stand over till Tuesday.
Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY said he should certainly
make his Motion against Lady Antrim on that day.
The LORD CDANCELLOR said there was but one
'person in* the country spina whom he was justified
'in tint hearing a motion—he could not hear a motion
to which he was himself a party; but as against all
the other of the King's subject. he was bound to
tend to any motion, end, Consequently, it was ieu•'
possible for him so refuse to hear any motion that
might be submitted to him against Lady Antrim.
The further consideration of the case was deferred
till 'ruetdiy.

Chow that the Prosecutor, during. his commend on
,heard the. Echo, bad acted in a most tyrannical min-
tier towards-Charles Davies. It was alleged. amongst
other circunts4oceit of opiwession, that. ke had lowed
him before the mast, had thrown him overboard,
and refused to send him any assistance, though qt the
imminent omit of drowning; that he had ordered him
to be stript slaked before the sbip's crew, foe the
purpose of being flogged, and that he bad falsely
charged him with. hiving stolen some of his tome.
mates' property, although there was no celeste or
1 pretence for such a charge, as appeared upon the en-
quiry which took place into thecireenistseceselleged.
Some of these allegations were confirmed by the. affi-
davit of another Officer of the ship. Both Defend-
ants.producod testimonials from several oScers and
others connected with the navy, giving them the high.
est ebamietet it as Officers and Oesitletnen.
~ On the part of the Prosecution, the affidsvita of
Ceptaiii Perc,eval and his wife were put in, as well
ts.ttiose of soma Officers who had served on board
1
the Echo. The charges alleged against the Prosecu-
tor,
of his having treated Mr. Charles Davies in the
twiner stated, was completely negatived by the
former, who Wooed them as an attempt to vilify his
cherocter, end cast imputations which were without
the slightest foundation.
Mr. DUMAN then addressed the Court on behalf
of the Defendants ; but before he bad proceeded fir,
the Court Interposed, and suggested, the props.lety
of basing the affidavits on both sides re-considered<
1 by the Beard of Admiralty, as there appeared to be
•1 considerable fauns on both sides. The professed oh-
, jest of the Prosecution was for the preservation of
i discipline in the wavy ; but theqoestion was, whetbet
that object could be effected by any punkhtnent which
I 1 the Court imposed? Undoubtedly the offence impeded
to the Defendants was very serious; and if the Court
were called upon to do their duty, they must pass
a very heavy sentence. Any pecuniary peoishoselit
1 which they should impose would have the effect of
crushing the Defendants. Under all the circutti-
p stances of she case, with.faolts on both sides, sod
with sech serious imputations (not without some
foundation) against the Prosecutor, their Lordships
I thought the most proper course was to have the AID.
devits.referred to the Board of Admicaltyosed it,
lupon consideration, they shoold still pray for judo.
meat, the Court would do its duty.
Mr. Torma and Mr. Jaavis acquiesced its the
proposition, the latter stating that the object of the
prosecution was to prevent similar transactions et the
close of the war bet it ern Officers in the Navy, on ac-
I count of suppoeti grievances during their service, in-
' stead of appealing to the constituted authorities for
redress.
The 'Defendants entered into fresh recognisences,
and the case stands over for the considesstiou of the
Admiralty.

lI4BRAS CORPUS.
In the course of the week Mr. RIGBy obtained a
writ of Habeas Corpus, to bring up the body of au
elderly lady, Dowd ,lane Maria Pearse,' supposed to
. be kept under duress in the custody of her eldest sun,
Captain Thomas Pestle. The application was made
et the instance of Mr. Edmund Pears., her younger
eon. •
The Lody was brought into Court by her eldest
son, and upon being questioned by the Court whe-
ther she was under any constraint, she said she was
not.; that she wished to live and -die with her eldest
on, who was the best of men, and had always treated
her swat
.kindly and dutifully. Under these circum-
stances the Court told her she was at libgrty to go
