WEDNESIMY, JUNE 12. MA'S V. RC. C. Wri.DE, D.D. AND --. ROLETEN, ESQ. This was an action ut trespass brought against the de fendant*, who are Iliitgistrairg of the comity of Nottingham, for false imprisonment of the plaintiff. It appeased in evidence, on the trial before Mr. Justice Palk, at the last summer assiaos, that the plaintiff was, on the 1211* of Sep tember, ltizO, committed to the county gaol on the war rant of Dr. Wyllie for thither examination, and was detained till the 14th, in the felons' yard, when be under went another examination, at the keeper's house. On die 24th he was sent, by order of Dr. Wylde, to the House of Correction; and afterwards Mr. Rolsten came to speak with him on the subject of the charge, at his own desire. Application was made by his attorney to see him; but Dr. Wylde refased to grant it, saying. " We will not suffer any to see him till lie is fully cousiiiitted for trial." His daughter also applied to Us. Wylde, in Mr. Rohteies presence, for liberty to see him, and for pet mission that attorney aught attend him; but the answ?r given was, that his dearest friend should not see him until lie was fully committed, and then all attornies and counsel might come at their pleasure ; that they knew lie had not done it Or his own head, and they would soon have those who set him on. A Hillock's Corpus was panted by Mr. Jos. tire Bayley, die commitment being bad, with some ex pression of a hope that the magistrate would admit him to bail in the country, and save him further expence; bat on healing it, Dr. Ws tile said lie WOlll4l never bail him till lie was compelled so to do. Ultimately lie was brought to Loudon, after lsieg in prison three months, and dis charged by Mr. Joisiiee Bayley on giving four sureties in 2001. e.lrh. At the follUWlllic as,igt-g, a bill w as f oun d against him, but oo piosecittur appeared, and be was ac quitted. On this evidence Mr. Justice Park said three was nothing to go to the Jury against 111 r.

Mr. Cliuke now hhowed conic at:alma the rule ' contend ing that there W:l4 no evid ence whatever to atfect Nlr. Rolsten, and ilint it would be extremely tisktubt to force Lim to a second It The Co 1111 l wit Sergeant, in support of the rule, nrged that there was evidence of concert which ought to be sob milted to the cisii.ideration of the July. Mr. itolstete concurred in the refusal to admit the itrisonces and was apparently acting throughout with Dr. Wade, ac they were atm in arm wheel the daughter met them. Aithouglt Mr. RoWen did nut join in the in iginal commit. 'twill, or in the change of custody, yet if lie concurred in the continuance of Die impriso 1111 l ent, he was halite, for envy day's detention, with a fresh trespass. This ap peas ed to be an attempt, by duress, to obtain souse coin iiiiiincation Dom the party aecaseil, which woe must ewe Jul y to the spit it (Attie British law. The Lind CliselJust ice, alter conferring mail the other Judges, said, that the Court who were anxious only to do justice to all parties, thought the plaintiff ought to hate the oppoi fimity of sob g his case to a Jury against Dr. Wyltle, but that it would he improper to poi Mr. Rolsten to the expeace of a defence. Against him there was no evidence, because a rf Insal to give an order fur the admission of a veinier to a prison could never be the ground of a trespass. They wound, therefore, set the non snit aside, if the coning I for the plaintiff would consent to enter a mac prasequi as to Mr. Rolsten, and they would give him time to reflect, and to confer with his client on the proposal.

Mr. Watford, in aggravation, defended the character of Sir T. Champneys, and deprecated the attempt made by the defendants, *nom he touted sharpen, to injure that gentleman's character. Mr. Adolphus also complained that the character of Sir T. Champue)s had been unjustly aspersed. Mr. Justice Bayley, in passing judgment, considered Sir T. Champneys a weak man, who had been doped by the defendants. The latter, he said, had reunited all the bills, end the warrant of attorney, so that Sir T. Champ neys was not liable. That cirennistance induced the Coast not to indict the tfit.e. The sentence of the Court was, that the defendants be imprisolied in the Rouse of Correction, Coldbath-fields, four calendar mouths.

Dr. Loulsington this day renewed his application to d.e Court in behalf of the claims of Princess Olive of Cum berland, under a testamentary propounded, purporting to be a bequest of 15,0001. Toe learned Advocate went through a long and elaborate deduction of authorities, from the reign of Henry the Fourth, Fifth, and Siath, which had furnished cases in point, with the opinion of Sir Edward Coke and other lawyers, that the right of be queathing private or personal property was inherent is the Sovereign. The following is the substance of Ibis curious decument:— " We, by this paper, to which we hereunto set sue royal sign manual, do give and bequeath unto daughter of our royal brother of Cumberland, 13,0081.; and we command our heirs and successors, after oar de mine, to pay the same to the oise of our said niece, as a rezoinpence for the injury she may receive by keeping the marriage secret." The attesting witnesses to this instrument were stated In be the late Earls of Warwick, Chatham, and Mr. Due ailing, afterwards Lord Aslibuston. fir. Dickinson, stem ward to the Earl of Warwick and Mr. Vanewevre, proved the genuineness of the Eat attestation, as did Mr. Lloyd, • ■n attorney, that of Lord Chatham, and Mr. Driest, many years clerk to Mr. Dunning, his signature. That that Edit of Warwick delivered this instrument into her bands. in presence of the Duke of KrM, explaining other cir cumstances attending the transaction, and hie being charged so to do by his late Majesty. The instrument was dated in the year 1774, and the learned Doctor said it was important that this was before Isis Majesty had been visited by any mental affliction. So confident did the individual 'mitten; and Mime respectable persons when had supported her, feel in the justice of her daps), that. as the Court were aware, she lied adopted a mode of pro ceeding which, should that claim not be substantiated, would lay her liable to a criminal pioseection for forgery and perjury. Application had, in the first instance, been made to his Majesty's Government. bat they load wholly declined to interfere iu the case. The only question now to be considered was, whether it came tinder the jurisdic tion of that Court. lie had the same high authority (Lord Coke) on the affirmative side hot, had lie no such autho rity, stately it could nut be fur a moment doubled that a right of decision exined, wills which the Act providing that the King may die intestate would he tendered trail and vein.
