Mr. Dunn moved dun the consideration of the case should be postponed for three days, in ardor to give him time to communicate wills his wretched clients, the pri- soners. After some conversation,

Lord Denman said, that

Although they did not see that the delay required could in any manner be the prisoner, yet as they were desirous of giving the case every possible oss- sideration, the Court had determined in granting it. He, however, wished is caution the wretched men before him, not to entertain the most distant lye that this indulgence wookl, in any manlier, benefit them ; fur it would avast unquestionably become the duty of that Court to order execution to be mark Under all the circumstances of the case, however, and anxious to give that Seamed counsel who appeared for them an opportunity of solemnly arguing the roar} they should direct it to stand over until Thursday morning.

The Court, on Wednesday, confirmed the decision of the two Justices, who, acting under a local act, reduced the assessment on iced Burlington's house to 16501. This act enables two Justices to exerane the power which ought only to be given to the Quarter.sessiouss.

The Court thought that the words of the Act were too clear to havenst doubt as to the construction which must be put upon them. The Act InAl evidently been drawn in a most careless manner, and important provisions wItia ought to have been inserted had been omitted. Still, however, the Court c..?.kid not set aside its provisions; and the only v. ay for the parish to relieve.rbscif would be to procure the amendment of the Act.

In the Court of Exchequer, on Tuesday, Mr. D. Wakefield pre- sented a petition from Mr. Attwood, defendant in the case of Sandi and Attwood, praying, that he might have leave to file a bill of excep- tions to the bill of costs of the plaintiff, on the ground that the Maar had allowed charges which he ought not to have allowed, which neve exorbitant, and contrary to the practice of the Court in such cases.

The plaintiff's bill, when it came before the Master, amounted to 20,164L which was reduced by the Master to 10,4171. The defendant, however, stiff insisted that several sums were allowed which ought to have been taxed oflE Amongst the various items objected to by the defendant, were the expense of the Commission sent down to inquire into the value of the property involved is the suit ; also the amount of fees given to counsel ; the Master having allowad 1,0501. to Mr. Knight, 5e25/. to Mr. Wigrarn, and 420/. to Mr. Sharp. He contended that the fees so allowed were excessive, and bore no proporeen fa one another. Supposing Mr. Wigram's fee to be correct, those of Mr. Knight and Mr. Sharp were too large, the actual progression being two, three, and five. Lord Lyndliurst—" But suppose Mr. Knight's fee to be correct, you would not object to Mr. TiVigram's fee being too small. How am I to know that Mr. Knight's fee was too large? I have heard that another learned gentleman re- ceived a very large fee, but not more than he deserved—it was a horrid esravcsw Mr. Wakefield contended, that it was contrary topractice to increase the fees charged ; and it must therefore be assumed that the fee granted to Mr. Wigrans was as large as it ought to be; and in that ease the other fees would be for large. Aimther objection was to a sum of :3341. allowed for copies of papers farnislast to the Court, and which Mr. Wakefield considered to be enormous.

After an argument from Mr. Wigrarn for the plaintiff, Lord Lyra. burst said, that as to the fees paid to counsel, be was satisfied, as far as his Mil judgment went, that they were by no means extravagant would, however, consult the Master and the officers upon this and the other questions insisted upon.

Another petition, presented by Mr. Wakefield for the same party, and which was an application to have a sum of 5,303/., the expenses of the accountants engaged in investigating the accounts of Mr. Aftwood, taxed off by the Master, was refused with costs.

A commission of lunacy was held on Wednesday, at the Old Sty= Inn, Battersea, to inquire into the state of mind of Mr. James Mills, of Battersea, a gentleman of considerable fortune. Several witnesses were examined, who gave testimony to the derangement of Mr. Mae's intellects. The unfortunate gentleman was himself examined; and the following conversation, which occurred between him and the aiatf Commissioner, put the fact of his insanity beyond doubt.

On taking a chair, the Chief Commissioner addressing him, explained is nature of the inquiry; upon which he said that he was aware of it, and er- pressed his surprise, saying that his intellects were never better than they were at present.

Chief Comtnissioner—" Where do you reside now?"

Mr. Mills—" I used to live in King Street, but I am in Surry now. Ilia has been done out of spite, and nothing else. They wish to make me out walla if they can."

" Who are the parties you mean ?"—" The Doctors arc at the bottom of it.. Mr. Gaunt is one of them."

" How is your health?"—" I enjoy supreme health ; never better in my " They say you are not in a condition to manageyour fortune. Are you pot- sessed of much wealth ?"—" I have millions. In fact, my fortune is so taste. that were I to live for ever I could not spend it."

" Where is your property situated?"—" Principally at Clayton, in Sums. had a relation died there lately, and he left me millions of money."

" I understand you are in possession of some valuable jewel?"—" It's quite true. I have a diamond, the largest in the world. It's as big as my head; ssi I have several of smaller descriptions." He then said that he had an appoint- ment with the Marquis Wellesley, and that he must prepare to go. The Chief Commissioner asked him how he liked the place he was living -is? He I won't stay there; it's a miserable place. I have been promoted ss the sitmaion of Warden of the Cinque Ports, and I must have an interview arida the Duke before I accept of office." He then ejaculated, " Thank God, I've ad- lions of money," and rising from his chair, he bowed to the Commissioners mat Jury, saying, " God bless you all; I'm much obliged for the trouble and attest- tion you have paid to my case." The unfortunate gentleman then, placing his arm on that of life_ Hayes, quitted the room. The Chief Commissioner said, that in ad- dition to the evidence adduced, the Jury had also an opportenity er seeing the lunatic himself, and there was little doubt as to the cern- elusion they would come to. The Jury immediately returned a verdict, that Mr. Mills had been of unsound mind since the 2itatf August 1834.
