STANN.UUES OF CORN WALL.

STIWAIRD'S COURT, IkiONDAT, MARCH 3.

This.Coutt. was held, in pursuance of an issue di
rested by the Vice Warden, to the steward of the Stan,
nary of Tywarnhale, in the case of Moyle against Ty.
acke, to try whether the complainant was induced by
the fraud• or fraudstlent pretences of the defendant, to
play to him more than the proper value of a parcel of tin.
A Jury of thanes.' having been sworn, Mr. Joseph
wards, as advocate for the complainant, opened the case.
Mr. Moyle, resides at Chacewater, a village between
'from and Redruth, and is in the habit of purchasing tin
ore; Tyacke it a miner, who had taken a pitch (a certain
number of yards or fathom. of a min-, which are to be
dug outsin a particular direction) in Chacewater seine,
On condition of having 7.l•2ths of the ore he 'Wald
raise, for his labour. Of course it was supposed that the ore
to be raised was of very inferior quality,' when so large a
portion was given for the- labour of raising. it. The
ore was got to the surface, and divided; after which the
ileket.iant offered his part for sale to Mr. Made, who
agreed-to purchase it. Accordingly, on the Lilt of Au-
gust last, the complainant ',vent to the place where the
ore lay, :old the attendant, in his presence, took up as
amnia of the ore as would till 3 or 4 plinks. This was
carried to what is called the sanip!ing-house, where it
was laid on a plate of cast-iron, and beaten with ham-
mers, by the defendant and another man, in presence of
the complainant, for a considerable-time' When it was
made sufficiently small, it was well mixed, and about a
quart separated from the rest, for the purpose of making
an assay to ascertain what quantity of tin the ore roq-
tained. • Tlas smaller quantity was again beaten on an-
other iron eplate, until it was rendered very tine. It
was during, this second process that the fraud met
have been practised; it would not have answered
at an earlier stage r and is supposed t a have been
effected. by the defendant taking an opportunity
of mixing a portion of rich ore which he had ready
prepared and kept concealed for the purpose, with what
he was pulverizing. The sahiple, when properly beaten,
was placed on a shovel and submitted to the action of
water, which washed-nit the light earthy particles, tear-
ing the ore behind—this-process is called vanaiag ; the
remainder was then properly dried, weighed,-and assay-
ed, and it having proved tb be very rieb, the coaaplain.

After the complainant's witnesses were heard, the Ad-
vocate of the defendant, who-. called no witnesses, ad-
dressed the Jury and said, that they mug he satisfied
fraud was used, or they could not tied a verdict for the
complainant. . • •
The Sieward recapitulated the evidence to the Jnry,
who retired, and :shortly after returned a 7erdiut for the
complainant, damages 16/. 9s , and cost..; thus finding

Lt seemed to be the general opinion that the Parlia-

number of persons employed in wanufattures in Ire;
land • mil tnosein the cotton trade alone, many timed
exceeded the number silted in the Repwt.of the Com-
missioners. It was suggested by one of two,- concern,.
ed in the import trade, that a prayer alright be added,
that in caw the duties should be repealed, contraw
to the wish and interest of petitioners, the duty j aid lir •
them for inch goods as they shall have on WWI at tl i
tirde of such repeal, should be returned.—Ts atilt -
it was objected, that it was better rut to suppose
the Parliament capable of so fee forgetting its
faith to this country, as to repeal an Acts
whia:h guaranteed the removal tat these duties in the
least injurious manner ; that there was no danger that
the Parliament would negleet so jug a measure as the
above repayment, if the repeal were to take place; and
that, at all events, the best time to seek repayment was
when such repeal should have been decidedness.
A Committee was then appointed, wt.* retired anal
• framed Resolutions to the above effect ; which were anis-
• nimonsly adopted by the Meeting. The same Com
mitteeoglh the addilon of a few more gentlemen, Were
• then appointed to prepare the Petition; which, when
ready, is to receive the signature.; of those concerned.
