Message from H. C. with a Bill.

A Message from the House of Commons, by Mr. Pocklington and others:

Who brought up a Bill, intituled, "An Act to enable the Lord High Treasurer, or Commissioners of the Treasury, for the Time being, to compound with Benjamine Niccoll, Citizen and late Merchant of London, and his Sureties, for the Debt owing by him to Her Majesty;" to which they desire the Concurrence of this House.

Yarmouth, Duties on Coals, Bill.

The Lord Viscount Townshend reported from the Lords Committees, the Bill, intituled, "An Act for regulating and ascertaining the Duties to be paid by the Un-freemen, Importers of Coals into the Port and Borough of Great Yarmouth, in the County of Norfolk," as fit to pass, without any Amendment.

Hodie 3a vice lecta est Billa, intituled, "An Act for regulating and ascertaining the Duties to be paid by the Un-freemen, Importers of Coals into the Port and Borough of Great Yarmouth in the County of Norfolks"

The Question was put, "Whether this Bill shall pass?"

It was Resolved in the Affirmative.

Ordered, The Commons have Notice, that the Lords have agreed to the said Bill, without any Amendment.

Pilley versus Madden.

Upon reading the Petition of Hyacinth Pilley; praying, "That a Day may be appointed, for hearing of his Cause depending in this House, whereunto Hugh Madden and Katherine his Wife are Respondents:"

It is Ordered, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That this House will hear the said Cause, by Counsel, at the Bar, on Wednesday the Nineteenth Day of this instant February, at Eleven a Clock.

Strode versus Andrews, in Error.

Whereas, by Virtue of Her Majesty's Writ of Error returnable in Parliament, a Record of Her Majesty's Court of Queen's Bench was brought into this House, the Tenth Day of January One Thousand Seven Hundred and Six, wherein Dame Katherine Strode, Trustee for the Three surviving Daughters of William Windham Esquire, who was Eldest Son of John Windham Esquire, Serjeant at Law, is Plaintiff, for reversing a Judgement in Ejectment given against her, upon a special Verdict, in the Court of Queen's Bench, for Thomas Andrews, Lessee of Francis Windham Esquire, Younger Brother of the William Windham:

Judgement reversed.

After due Consideration of what was offered by Counfer thereupon, it is Ordered and Adjusted, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Judgement given in the Court of Queen's Bench, for the said Thomas Andrews Defendant in Error, shall be, and is hereby, reversed; and that Judgement be, and hereby, given for the said Dame Katherine Strode, against the said Thomas Andrews, in the said Action.

The Tenor of which Judgement, to be affixed to the Transcript of the Record to be remitted, is as follows; (videlicet,)

"Sed quia præd. Cur. Parliamenti de Judicio de et super Præmiss. reddend. nondum advisatur, Dies inde dat. est, tam præfat. Catherinæ Strode, quam præd. Thomæs Andrews, coram eadem Curia Parliamenti, usque Diem Mercurii, Quintum Diem Februarii prox. fequen. apud Westm. in Comitatu Midd'x de Judicio suo inde audiend. eo quod Cur. Parliamenti præd. inde nondum &c. Ad quem Diem, coram eadem Cur. Parliamenti, venerunt Partes præd. per Attornatos suos præd.; super quo, visis et per Cur. Parliamenti præd. plenius intellectis omnibus et singulis Præmissis, diligenterque examinat. et inspect. tam Record. et Process. præd. ac Judicio super inde redit. quam præd. Causis et Materiis per præd. Catherin. Strode superius pro Error. assign. maturaque Deliberatione inde habita, videtur Cur. Parliamenti præd. quod in Record. et Process. præd. necnon in Redditione Judicii præd. manifeste est Errat. Ideo per eandem Cur. Parliamenti consideratum est, quod Judicium præd. o Errores in Record. et Process. præd. existen. revocetur, adnulletur, et penitus pro nullo habeatur; quodque ipsa eadem Catherina ad. omnia quæ ipsa Occasione Judicii præd. amisit restituatur. Et ulterius, per eandem Cur. Parliamenti consideratum est, quod præd. Thomas Andrews nihil capiat per Billam suam præd. sed fit in Misericordia pro salso Clamore (fn. 1) sua; et quod præd. Catherina Strode habeat inde sine Dec, &c. Super quo, Record. præd. necnon Process. præd. in eadem Cur. Parliamenti in præmiss. habit. per Cur. Parliamenti præd. Cur. dictæ Dominæ Reginæ, coram ipsa Regina, ubicunque &c. remittuntur."
