Monsters La Bantus,—l have just received the
letter which your Excellency has done me the honour
to address to sue, and by which you are so good as to
inform me, " that one of the Counsel for her Majesty
the Queen of England, has complained in the House
of Lords that, after receiving two letters which her
Majesty had deigned to address to me requesting my
evidence, l had refused n, proceed to Loud •n, in con-
sequence of a prohibition on the part of my Sovereign ;
that in eansequence of this statement, Mr. Lamb, his
Britannic Majesty's Minister Plenipotentiary to the
Germanic Confederation, has been instructed to repair
hither for the purpose of removing any obstacle which
might arise to my departure ; and that his Royal
Highness the Grand Ihtke has instructed your Excel- 1
leney to declare to me, officially, that I am perfectly at
liberty to follow toy inclination, and that his Royal 1
Highness, upon me rryn:•st, will not refuse a leave of 1
absence for proceeding to England."
I beg' bare in the first place to be allowed to cor-
rect so;:ie mistakes which appeared to hare crept into
the allegation of ' r Majesty's Counsel. I have only
been honoured w;th o,e letter from her Majesty, a
letter which has h-en delivered to me by her agent
M. Letnan-.-to which I have replied that the nature of
my duties rendered it impossible for me to come to
111iitland, in compliance ni;ii her Majesty's wishes".---
With respect toihe tears with which I am stated to
have accompanied this refusal, I am the m•re asto-
nished, as my declaration was conveyed to M. Leman
through one of my friends, who undertook to commu-
nicate my determination to hini upon this subject.
In consequence of the permission :oils'ark 'tour Ex-
cellency had done site the lionNir to traiminft to use in
the name of his Royal Highness thtiGrand ratite, the
sliffi: nit,- grouoded on the nature of my duties is over-.
tome; 1-sus extremely grieved that it is, ueverthleas,
sot iu my power to conform to the wishes of her Ma-
jesty the Queen. The state of my health is such that
I c •ultl not undertake so long a journey withent the
greatest danger, particularly at this moment, when
. about to undergo a rigid course of medical treatment.
Have the_goodoess, Sir, to explain these circum-
stances to Mr. Lamb, and convey to him my regret
at pat. being able to proceed to England.
,Aggrait myself of this cceasion,tosAr to your Ex-
the assnrance of my. highot consideration.

This was an action Lo recover damages fora bodily

Mr. EDWARD Loos stated the facts to the jury.
The defendant an opnlent merchant of London, bad oc-
casion on the 6th of November last to send a parcel of
fame to his mother at Brixton, and despatched his
servant on horseback with the errand., The servant
arrived at the place •f his destination about half past

proved that two persons, who passed the spot bat a
mosucat Ill'ore the plaintiff, saw the mace, and avoided
coming, into contact with her; and it was also shown
that 3lrs. Parretti, the lady at whose lwase the acci-

Mr. Sc tatter, for the defence. contended witis
math ingenuity, first, that the plaiutiff was not enti-
tled to any compensation whatever ; and, next, that,
at all events, under the cireneastances, compensation
could not be recovered from the defendant. The
hanging a horse by the bridle to a raii or gate, the
Learned Counsel said, was the pc.icice of every hoer
in the day intleA, it was impossible to carry on the
baldness of life in any other wanner. Tu• witneases,
called by the plaintiff too, declared that they had
passed the man in s.tfety hut a moment before the
plaiati.f appeared. There was no evidence as to
hew the affray took place; no proof that the mare
meddled with the wan fiist, Roe rooster that the
man did nut meddle with the tiare first. Ile did

of caution, would hare 'stabled the plaintiff ti avoid

Upoa the second point, (Yr. Scarlett continatil,) the
aon-liability of the defendant. he would enttrat the
attention of the learned Jade, to an Important distinc-
tion. if a man employed his servant upon a heftiness,
and, in the diseharge of that batistes*, the servant by
negligenet, or by west of skill, did isjury to another,
then the asaste. was responsible. Ia the present case,
however. ho shoohi contend, the trig the horse upon

that servant, at his leisure, to charge opoo his empleva,

fancy to commit.
Mr. JOstice 11.1111.tY thought it would be prudent for
a Ilisll on horsehark, who wanted to hooch at a
set to tie his horse to the rails, but to get a passettp t
to knock for him. In the present ease he had so doubt
that the defendant was liable for the act of his went,:
.bat it would be for the jury to say whether the plaiotis
had used such reasonable caution to avoid the a►enleat
as entitled him to ask for compennition.
