FRENCH PLATS, Sr. JASIES'S THEATRE.—Three new pieces were produced here yesterday evening, "Le Premier Malade," " In Chef.d'cruvre Ineonnu," and "Le Rived du Lion." The first is the merest possible trifle, redeemed, indeed, from utter insipidity solely by the occasional amusement derived from the acting of M. Josue, an extremely clever itaysWw, imper sonating a fresh.made doctor, whose vehement desire for practice involves him is the humiliating dessgre , nsent of obtaining a first patient in the shape of a great house dog. The two ladies in the vaudeville, Mademoiselle Elise Grange and Mademoiselle Marot affected us with a sincere desire for such an accession of fortune on their part as would permanently remove them from the stage. The second novelty sets forth the story of a young sculptor, who, proscribed from the city of Genoa for a political conspiracy, has occupied a twelve months' secret retirement at Florence, in the production of a St. Cecilia, which his genius has rendered a masterpiece. Two or three touches around the arms are alone wanting to make the statue perfect. These touches, in the tempo rary absence of the young aspirant, ore supplied by the hand of MicAel Angelo, and the St. Cecilia then becomes, what it had been designed to be, the all but breathing por trait of Le'oner, the sculptor's mistress, the daughter of an other proscribed Genoese, who, unknown to her, has premised her hand to the Duke's favoarite, the Marquis Appiani, as the, price of his restoration, by the Duke's influence, to his country. A triumphal crown has been decreed for the noblest St. Cecilia, offered in com petition Sy artists of Florence. The young Rolla, from a patriotic hatred of the Duke, and a personal animosity to his favourite, withholds his St. Cecilia from competition ; but, on the report of Michel Angelo, the crown is adjudged to him; and by the same influence he is secured the hand of his beloved Lionor. The double triumph, however, comes too late ; irritated to frenzy by the appearance in his studio of his hated rival, who demands the St. Cecilia, he destreys the statue. The excitement proves too much for his enfeebled frame, an.l when Michel Angelo reappears, with Lionor, bearing the golden crown, the young sculptor is dying. The part of the hero is most admirably imper sonated by M. Fechter, ao actor powerful fur the representa tion of lofty sentiment and impassioned tenderness. The third piece. " Le Riven du Lion," we need not describe, since it is the play a translation of which is now acting at the BaymarketThaatte, under the name of " The Roused Lion." • NAVAL DrVONPORT. Dec.

The object of the prevent application was to obtain the concurrence of the court, as protector of the settlement (under the act for the abolition of fines sod recoveries), in the necessary proceedings for barring the entail, either absolutely or so far as might be requisite for raising by mortgage sufficient to purchase the antecedent life estate, and for en-king the farm. The property was stated to be let at 2001. per annum, and the price agreed to be paid for the life estate was 1,8001. The amount intended to be laid out in stocking the farm was 1.0001. The age of the tenant for life was stated to be 66. Mr. Elmaley, in support of the petition, cited " Re Waine wright," (l Phillips, 2.sB).—The Vice-Chancellor said, that the price agreed to be paid for the purchase of the life estate was too large, and ordered the petition to stand over for affi davits on this point. If they should prove satisfactory, the order would be made for raising the whole sum. Ex PARTE FOLIONO, RE SAIEUEL.-TRANSPERRING Fur TO A DIFFERENT COMMIESIONER.-Mr. Basildon appeared, in support of this petition, the object of which was to have the fi at transferred from Mr. Commissioner Goulburn to Mr. Commissioner Holn)yd, on the grounds that the bank- rapt bad been in partnership one - ot the Moen. tli ► Duel (the goldsmiths, of anowr-squre), the male of whose bankruptcy was before Mr. Commnidoner Hobss, and that the affairs of the two trades were on connected with one another that they could set be conveniently investigated before different commissioned% The application wee stated to be supported by meditate In the amount of 70,0001., including Messrs.

The matter must stand over, with liberty to apply, and also to amend the petition, if necessary. Before Vice. Chancellor Wtgrain. ATIORAPIT.OZNSILAI, V. JOHNSON. —I N FORMATION. CHAILITY.—By the will of John Huddle, dated in 1604, certain measuages and premises in Devonshire, amongst which was comprised a piece of land adjoining the churchyard at Great Torrington, with certain almshouses erected thereon by the testator, were devised to trustees upon trust for the poor people of the town of Great Torrington. In 174.5, the pees of land and almshouses became vested upon the trusts of the will in the mayor and aldermen of Great Tor rington with other persons who were also feoffees of certain other estates called the town lands, which they held for the benefit of the poor of Great Torrington generally. In 1843, the feoffeee of the townlands estate, in whom the almshouse estate was still vested on the trusts of the will of John Huddle, pulled down the alms houses in question and erected others in their stead. upon a different site, consisting of a portion of the townlands estate. The present information was filed at the relation of certain inhabitants of Great Torrington against the ['toffees of the townlands estate, praying that it might be declared by the decree of tbe court that the pulling down of the alms houses was a breach of trust ; that an account might be taken of the loss sustained thereby by the almshouse charity ; that the defendants might be decreed to pay the same, and that the money so paid might be employed in the restora tion and erection of the almshouses on their original site. The defendants by their atuwer admitted that the almshouses bad been removed from their original site, and alleged that it had been done to give room for enlarging the churchyard, and that the removal from the confined situation of the old almshouses was a benefit to the occupiers u well or to the Vgenerally. At the hearing of the cause in March. % decree was made directing that the cause should stand over, with liberty to either party to apply to the Attorney. General foe his directions how to act, and reserving the con sideration of the costa. The matter had since been referred W the Attorney-General, who had certified that the spot selected for the new almshouses was much more desirable than the old one, and that as the substitution had actually taken place it was not desirable to rebuild the houses on their old site, provided a good title to the new site could be mode to the trustees. The cause now came back for further directions. Mr. Wood and Mr. Terrell appeared for the in formants; and Mr. Romilly, Mr. Willeack, and Mr. Bata for the defendanta—His Honour made a decree reciting the proceedings before the Attorney-General, and his certificate tansequent therein, and referring it to the master to state whether by any and what act • good title could be made to the trustees of the old almshouses to the sits on which the new almshouse were built. Further directions and cuts rorerrod. COURT OP QUEEN'S BENCH. Sittings in BAUM HALL T. BAINDRIDOZ AND ANOTEBR.—CONTLACT TOR • LICINBII TO COB IYDROVIRMONTO IN MARINE STIAN ENOINIB.—This was a spatial case which in substanos dis closed the following facts :—The plaintiff is the inventor of certain Improvements in marine steam engine, and sought to recover the sum of 2,7001., which he alleged to be due to him from the defendants, as directors of the British and North American Steam Navigation Company, in considera tion of his having given them liberty to use his invention. An egreement had been entered into between the plaintiff tad the eewipany, by which the latter promised to pay him the nos of 2,0001., and N. per hores-power for each and every hone-power used by them in any mita, they might beild. The engines of the plaintiff were put into the de- readmits' vessel the British Queen, but were not put into the Preaidest, another vessel belonging to the defendants, for fitting engines into which Mewrs. Fawcett and Co. had been employed. The plaintiff, however, was of opinion that he was sodded to be pad for the liberty to use his in vention ; and that, as the defendants bad had his license to introduce his improvements into the eaglets of the Presi dent, they were bound to psy the stipulated sum per horse power, although the improvements had not in feet been used therein. The defendants said that the agreement was b deed made by one folly, who had no authority, though their partner, to bind them by deed ; that, if such was the ease, the agreement, as it was not necessarily to be completed within the year, was not signed by them or their agent, ac cording to the requirements of the statute of frauds ; and that, though the defendants migtu be liable for th.f stipu lated sum perhorse-power on engines which they had directed Mean. Fawcett to furnish, fitted up with the plaintiff 'a improvements. they were not liable for that sum on every engine they might use, not being under a contract always to use the plaintiff's invention.—Mr. Cowling appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Peacock for the defendant.—The court took time to consider its judgment. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Nms Puna_—At Guildhall, before the Lord Odd Justice and a Common Jury. - RUSSELL O. BRIANT.—MUSICAL COPTIIIORT.—Mr. Ser. jeant Talfourd and Mr. Lock for the plaintiff; Mr. Lush sud Mr. Fitseatrick for the defendant.—This was an &ethos broeght by Mr. Henry Russell, a musician, against the pro prietor of the Horns Tevern,at Kennington, to recover—nom i Daffy compensation in damages, but in reality certain penalties —for having wrongfully and unjustly caused to he repre sented two songs, called respectively " The Gambler's Wife," and The Ship on Fire," without the consent of the plaintiff, who claimed the exclu-ive right to perform the said compo sitions. The defendant pleaded not guilty.—Mr. Seneent Talfourd, in opening the case, stated that Mr. Russell's ob ject in bringing the present action was to repress the coons of piracy, which had for some time past been carried on with reference to hi , productions. As long ago as 1833, the plaintiff composed the song of " The Gambler's Wife," and in the year 1842, that of " The Ship on fire." These songs were dramatic in their character, and Mr. Russell claimed the sole and exclusive right to represent them in public. In the month of February, 1846, he dis covered that a Mr. Henry Smith was about to give an enter tainment, in which he proposed to introduce the two songs mentioned, and to adopt them as his own compositions. Announcements were published to the effect that Mr. Henry Smith from America would give an entertainment on Tues day evening, March 13, at the Horns Tavern Assembly rooms, and the "Gambler's Wife" and "Ship on fire" were included amongst the compositions selected for the occasion. On seeing these advertisements the plain tiff, through the medium of his solicitor, informed Mr. Briant, the proprietor of the Assembly-rootus, that if he sanctioned the representations complained of, he said proceed against him under the stet. 3 & 4 Will. IV , cop. 15. The detendsut, however, disregarded this notice, and thu entertainment took place as announced. The pre sent action was, theref re, brought to movie the penalty of 40s. for the representation of each of the two songs in ques tion. The words of the statute were, that " the author of any tragedy, comedy, opera, farce, or any other dramatic entertainment, shall have the sole liberty of representing, or causing to be represented, at any place of dramatic enter tainment, any such production," &e. ; and the act made this provision by way of remedy :—" If any person shell re present, or cause to be represented, say such production, without the cement of the author in writing, he shall be liable to pay to the author either the amount of profit or the amountof injury which the author might sustain by reason of the representation, or to pay damages to the amount of 405., &a Jie (Mr. Serjeant Talfourd) contended that the songs in question came within the scope and mean ing of the act, because they were entirely of a dramatic character, hot the plaintiff's claim was strenethenal by the provisions of a subsequent act, the sth and oth Vic., chap. 45, which extended to "musical compositions " the loenefit of the former enactment. It might be contended on the ' part of the defendant, that the Horns Tavern Assembly Rooms could not be called " a place of dramatic entertain ment" within the meaning of the statute, but he submitted that the room in question was rendered a place of dramatic , entertainment by the fact of such entertainment having been exhibited there. The room was ipo facto such a place Es the statute contemplated, and under these circumstances there was no substantial ground for disputing the plaintiff's right to maintain the present action. The copyright of the two pieces was admitted, and a witness was then culled to prove that Mr. Russell had composed the music of the songs, and that he had always represented them es his own productions.—Mr.West, &professor of 'runic, was . called to prove that he was present at the entertainment in question, and that Mr. Henry Smith performed the songs attar the manner adopted by Mr. Runt. The witness also stated that he considered the songs of a dramatic character, inasmuch as they embodied recitative, and it was neceeury to use gestures and dramatic action in order to give full effect to the performance--Mr. Fox Cooper gave similar testimony.—ln cross-examination it was suggested that the "Battle of Prague" might, according to the witnesses' account, be designated as a piece of a dramatic character, be cause it described the Snag of guns and clashing of swords, the groans of the wounded, &c. The witness, however, did I not include the " Battle of Prague" amongst " dramatic songs" as it did not contain any recitative. On behalf of the defendant it was contended that Mr. Briant was not liable, inasmuch as the feet of his having let his rooms to Mr. Smith did not make Dim the person " representing or causing to be represented" the songs in question. Mr. Smith took the rooms for his own benefit, and Mr.Brient did no more than innocently let his room for a pur pose which be did not know to be unlawful. Mr. Smith, there fore, was the person who ought to have been proceeded against, and Mr. Briant wits entitled tea verdict in bin favour. Mr. Henry Smith was then examined, and his evidence went to show that a correspondence had taken place between him and Mr. Briant, which proved that the latter was not the responsible party as respected the plaintiff's complaint. The witness stated in fact that all the arrangements for the concert wen made by himself, and not by the defendant. The music he sang was not the same as that executed by Mr. Russell. The Lord Chief June. summed up, leaving it to the jury tow, tint, whether or not the plaintiff's pieces of music in question had been performed at the defendant's house, as alleged ; secondly, whether or not the defendant caused Sr procured them to be so performed; and, thirdly, whether , the defendant's house was or not a place of dramatic enter tainment, within the act ? The jury, after consulting together for a short time, returned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 41., and upon being applied to, the learned Judge said he would certify, if necessary, that the ease was a proper one to be Died in this court, so as to avoid the operation of the late County Courts Act, as to coots. THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 11. 1847. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. 811 P.

The entry contains 206 mune, of which 96 are remanets, and about 60 for trial by special ' juries. LAW E. DODD.—THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OP DUST CONTRACTORS.—Mr. Humfray Q.C., and Mr. Miller, were the plaintiff's counsel. Mr. Godern, CC., and Mr. Peters dorff, for the defendant—Thu was an action for false im prisonment, to which several pleas were pleaded. It appeared the plaintiff was • working brase-founder and in the employ ment of • Mrs. Callow, a metal refiner, whose business it also was buy the refuse of brass foundries. On the 13th of November, 1846, as the plaintiff was in the act of remov ing refuse or rubbish of that description (which is techni cally called " wash-dirt ") from the premises of Mr. Ellis, • brass-founder at Houndsditch, a servant of the defendant, who was • dust contractor, ordered him to desist, and claimed the rubbish. The plaintiff, on refusing, was given into custody ; his hone and cast were also taken, and he was compelled to appear before the Lord Mayor, charged with having infringed the Metropolitan Police Act. It appeared on the investigation at the Mansion House that a certain sum had been paid for the refuse in question, and that persons who purchased it were in the habit of washing ft for the purpose of extracting particles of metal, which it frequently contained in Duch quantities as to prove remunerative to the speculators. The Lord Mayor was of opinion that the substance in question did not fall within the Police Act ; that it was not such an article as the defendant could properly claim, and the charge was there fore dismisir,d. The present action was the result of his lordship's decision.—The Lord Chief Baron was also of opi nion that the rubbish which the plaintiff was removing when given into custody was not within the meaning of the act upon which the defendant relied.—A verdict was entered for the plaintiff. Damage', 405., subject to move upon several ob jections reserved. PALACE COURT. Before Brent Brent, Esq. . . AOTE e. GILLII7OHAM.—How TO TAKE UP A BlLL.—in this case an action had been brought to recover 181. 17s. 6d., and a verdict given for the defendant.--The plaintiff is a corn-merchant, of Tottenham-courtroad, and defendant a veterinary surgeon, living at Pimlico. The sum sought to be recovered was ter hay and corn. The goods, when sent, were accompanied by • bill at three menthe, for defendant's acceptance. The bill was not returned, although &option. tions were made for it, and an action was brought for the amount. As soon as defendant was served with notice he called en plaintiff and on his solicitor, offering to pay the debt by instalments of so trivial an amount that the propo eal was not accepted. At the trial defendant pleaded pay ment, and produced the mining bill, accepted sad honoured, alleging that it had been mislaid. In support of this defence a wetness named Jones, who stated himself to be a clerk in defendant's employ, swore to having taken the bill to Mr. Ante after It had been accepted by his master, and that when it became due • person giving the name of Davie presented it, and that he (Jones), by the direction of defendant, paid it. It had been Int until within a few days of going to trial.—A person named Rickets (who was stated to have been employed at defendant's premises) deposed to seeing Jones pay the bill. These witnesses gave their evidence in a very unsatisfactory manner, and prevaricated upon eons-examination. The jury found for the defendant —Application was now made for a new trial, on the grounds of surprise ; and that the defence was • fraud and conspiracy, supported by perjury, to avoid payment. Affidavits were read, proving that Jones bad never been in Gillingham's service, and that he brought back the bill, as could be proved by Mr. Aste's clerks. Furthermore, that he was not kaown at the address he gave ; that no such porno as Rickets was to be found at his said place of abode ; that a witness examined at the trial, named Spicier who bad been the chief person in get ting up the definer, wee wholly unworthy of credit, henna in a can (tuttanaectett with the present one) suborned a witness to commit perjury, which &th at:ion Spicer in his counter affidavit did not deny ; and, 7, that the defendant was not in cireunuitances to pay the bill at the time he alleged he did.—The learned Judge said he did not see that any benefit would arise if he granted a new trial, as they. must have the same cue and defence without fresh evidence, the whole of the above-named facts having been fully gone into on oath before a jury. The only evidence that could set :be matter at rest would be that of the plaintiff, to prove that neither he, nor any one authorised by him, had received the bill when accepted, or the pa yment, as sworn to ; but the civil law not permitting a p.tantiff to prove his own cue, he could not appear as • witness. He did not hesitate to say there had been perjury in the case, and the only remedy the plaintiff had was by prosecuting thous who had so committed themselves by • criminal indict ment.—Rule refused. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Wore Mr. Ccommlarborser Evans. IN RN EDWARD TIBR ET.—JUDOMENT.—Tins bankrupt, • diamond merchant, applied for Isis certificate on Wednes day last, when the court deferred giving judgment till this day (Friday).—His Honour now said: In the year 1846 the bankrupt sustained some severe losses, and applied to his creditors to give Dim time to discharge his debts. By his statement at that time he made it appear that he would have a surplus of several hundred pounds. The creditors agreed to hie proposition, which wsa to pay by three instal ments at six, twelve, and eighteen months. It appears to me that the bankrupt was incorrect as to the amount of both debts and assets. I canned avoid expressing my opinion that such arrangements are generally disadvantageous both to the debtor and the creditors. The debtw, after years of struggling, is generally obliged to become • bankrupt, and the creditors would probably find they are not gainers by such proceedings. The granting of the es rtiticate was objected to upon three grounds : First, that the bankrupt had not delivered up the whole of his property. The point was premed on the last examination, but I was not. nor am I now, satisfied with the proof. The fact that the bankrupt values his stock at a very considerable sum, and that the assignees cannot obtain one-fourth of the value, affords ground for suspicion ; but that is not sufficient. That point, therefore, is dismissed. The next objection was, that, knowing he was insolvent, he incurred debts with Mr. I Johnson and Mr. Price. Although the creditors who were parties to the arrangement could not complain of the bank- rupt incurring such debts, yet the debtor, after such an ar rangement, is not justified in incurring fresh dcbts without disclosing his position. However, at the time of the con.. traction of Mr. Johnson's and Mr. Price's debts, the back rapt must have known that he was hopelessly insolvent, and in their cases he appears to have told deliberate falsehoods in order to induce these creditors to give hint credit. It was also cbjected to him that he premised three of the cre ditors to give them additional security, and tkt in order to do so he induced his fatherdndlaw to give a security for 1,1001., and that instead of using the security for the pur pose specified he lodged it as a security with his bankers. there is no evidence that he corn:nitwit any [mad upon his father-in-law, but it appears that the bankrupt was guity of a great neglect of hi; duty when tic pledg. d his most valuable goods to his bridherdn-law to tree tatterda-law from himresponsibility on the security for 1,1001. This does appear to me be a fr►ud on the creditors deserving punishment I therefore adjourn the certificate for twelve months. The particular day will be specified by the officer. —Suspended accrtiffingly. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. Before Mr. Comminioner Harris. IN RE SAMUEL LEWIS LAZARUS, INOWN AS SAMUEL LAWRENCE.—ALLEGED FRAUD By A HORSB-DEALER.— This ineolvent, a horse-dealer in Oxford-street, who has twice been a bankrupt, was opposed by Mr. Sargood for Mr. Markham, a couch-builder and horse-dealer in Luigham. place. In February, 1846, Mr. Markham accepted a bill of 901. for the insolvent, on the representation that he was going into the country to purchase hones, some of which Mr. Markham was likely to require, and the 901.—which would be a convenience to the insolvent—might be deducted from the price of the horses which Markham would probably buy. This bill became due in May, 1846. In April of that year Markham bought horses of the insolvent to the amount of 1331., and upon his promise to meet the 901. bill when it should be presented, consented to give the insolvent an acceptance for the whole amount. In May, Markham heard nothing of the 901. bill, and concluded that the in ' solvent had—according this promise—paid it. In August, however, when the 1331. became due, Markham inquired if the insolvent had paid the 901., and was told that he had done so, and that the bill was in his cash-box. Markham, therefore, paid the 1331., and heard nothing of the 901. bill till June of this year, when insolvent admitted he had only psid 301. of it, and that it was in the hands of a third party, who was impatient for a settlement. Mr. Markham c on aented to accept another bill for 1201., in order to meet the 901., Insolvent stating at the time, that if Mr. Markham would give him his acceptance, he (insolvent) worrld set it discounted, pay the 001. bill, and in an hour would hand over the difference to Markham. The insolvent obtained Mr. Markham's signature and got the money, but never gave it to him (Markham), and ultimately, the bill having passed into a third party's hands, Mr. Markham had to meet it.—Mr. Commissioner Harris said if there was any person in court who mold doubt that the 1201. bill affair was a trend of the roastpalgabla kind, he might take time to consider the matter; but, as it appeared to his that dishonesty of a most flagrant description was on the lam of the transaction, he should remand the insolvent for 11 months from the vesting order. WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT. Before D. C. Boylan, Esq.,.fhdp. MILLER V. LORD DUDLEY STUART, M.P.—THIS LATE MARYLIRONE ELECTION.—ThiI was an action brought by John Miller against the noble lord the member for Mary lebone, to recover 61. for loss of time and services rendered to his lordship at the recent election. Mr. P. Banks, who appeared as counsel for the noble defendant, said Mr. Ro nald', hie lordship's attorney, bad that moment received a letter from the plaintiff which he would read : My Lord,—ltils is to inform your lordship, that as an acquaintance of your lordship's has promised to came forward and settle the little pecuniary muter of 51. between us, it now will not be neoeseary for your lordship to attend to the summons at the Westminster County Courton the 10th WM. (Sigurd) J. Mussa. The plein.iff having withdrawn from the cause, he (Mr. Banks) oaths part of the noble lord, had to apply for costs, as he should show that there was net the slightest founda tion for the claim, hut that it wet an impudent attempt to obtain money. He made the application for costa, although there was every probability of their sever being paid, more for the purpose of deterring other persons equally unknown to his lordship, from harassing him than to punish the plaintiff, who was totally unknown to him. Mr. Banks proceeded to read a letter from the plaintiff to his lordship, wherein he stated that, admiring the noble lord's disinterested conduct in coming forward as a candidate, he had refused 10s. a day offered him by the committee for the City election, " had driven Mr. Harvey from the field for ever," and taken great trouble to further his lordship's election, and concluded by expressing hie con viction that his lords hip would not suffer the writer's sacri fices and trouble to pass unremunerated. Upon the receipt of this letter his lordship, to avoid the plaintiffs importunities for the future, ordered his attorney to pay him 61. This was done, to the great gratification of the plaintiff ; but the day after it was paid another letter was received, in which phin- tiff acknowledged the receipt of the fit, but " never for a moment supposed that a lest sum tkan 101. would have been offered." The result was, that his lordship referred the plaintiff to Mr. Ronald,. 'To that gentleman, and also to his lordship's secretor', several letters were written, in which the plaintiff spoke of his lordship's proud position in Mary lebone being due to him, for he only bad caused the retire ment of Mr. Harvey. Finding it impossible to get any ' more money out of Lord Dudley Stuart, another letter was sent to his lordship, in which the plaintiff said ho had ns alternative but to appeal to the County Court fir justice, " • proceeding which he greatly regretted being driven to, as he was sorry the liberal cause would buffer by the expose."' The learned judge thought quite enough had been stated by the counsel to entitle him to the costa of counsel, attorney, and one witness, which he would order to be paid in a month. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Wore Mr. &lout. Mom. This was the clay appointee for hearing appeals for the December sessions. BTaAM NAVIGATION OF MI THANZIL—An appeal wu made at the lut appeal day against a comiction by Mr. Yardley, the magistrate, of J. Pattison for havi ng un lawfully commanded a steam bo at on the Thames. Tire con viction was made under the by-laws of the' Watermen's Company. The court now proceeded to deliver its judg ment. —The learned Judge sad this was art appeal by Patti son against a conviction by which he had toed subjected to a fine fur having been in command of one of the Gravesend and Blackwell steam-boats without being liceesed by the Company of Lightermen and Watermen. The by-law under which the conviction took place had been carefully perused. It was framed by the Court of Aldermen for the regulation of the navigation of the Thames, but the conclu sion the court had arrived at with respect to that by-law was that it was quite inconsistent with the tidal regulations, and contrary to the statute under which it was framed. It enacted that no person but • freeman of the Waterman's Com pany should command any "lighter, wherry, or other craft," plying for hire between Yantlet Creek and Windsor, and that every such freeman so commanding should hold a license from the Watermen's Company, and from the Court of Aldermen, to exercise his privilege. The violation of these stipulations subjected the party violating them to a fine for every trip or voyage. The court was of opinion that the terms on which this by-law was framed excluded steam boaft tram its authority. A steam-boat was not a " lighter," neither was it a " wherry ;" and although it had been deci ded by the Court of Queen's Beneb that the term " vessel" comprised a " steam-boat," thiecourt could not see that a steamer could be included In the term "craft." The court therefore was of opinion, that as far as steam-boats were ma cerued the by-law was inoperative, and that it could sat imperatively insist that the commander of a steamboat an the Thames should be a freeman of the Water men's Company. In the present case the appellant was ouch freeman, though the court was disposed to think that the Court of Aldermen had no power to 00111- pel the captains of steam-boats to be such freemen, at least under their present by-laws. It WY not, however, epos that point that the court had to decide. The convictios was for not carrying a certain license which, by by-laws framed by the Court of Aldermen and the Watermen's Company, was requisite for the privilege of being a freeman. The by-law which said that no steam-boat should be navigated unless it carried this license contained a prevision that a fee of one shilling should be paid for such license. New, the Court of Aid amm c l ear l y had no eathority to grant these licenses upon terms, and in framing Ma by-law the Court of Aldermen had ',ideally forgetter that her Majesty's sub ject/could not be taxed without the dingo authority of en art of yarLiantant, and in coasting that dab/ foe the limas the Court of Aldermen seemed to him to be reviving a sye tem which, in the reign of Charles 1., acquired some noto riety—via, the levying of ship money. A freeman of the Watennen's Company was entitled to navigate any vessel on the Thames; and he considered that, under the statute, the Court of Aldermen had the power to compel steam-boat captains to take out this license u this by-law required. But the present by-law was clearly illegal, and therefore, as this conviction had taken place because the appellant had not taken out the license, the court could not confirm the conviction. If the judgment of the court were correct new by. laws were required for the regulation of the navigation of the Thames. The question involve.' in the present inquiry was without doubt one of too great import ance to be finally determined in that court. It wis im portant as it affected t►e jurisdiction and authority of the Court of Aldermen; it was important to the interests of the Watermen's Company—to those who commanded steamers on the Thames; and it wan of especial importance to those who ha I embarked large cspiral in the navigation of the Thames and steam-boat traffic generally. Taking the point as to the mode in which the license woo granted as the chief ground of its decision, the court would order the conviction to be quashed. In another case, In which Stephen Mockley was appellant, precisely the same points were involved, therefore the same judgment quashed the conviction in that too. POLICE.-YESTERDAY. WESTMINSTER.—A CAB CASE.—Mr. T. C. Anstey, M.P., charged 0. Lamb, a cab-driver, with attempting to prevent his entrance into the vehicle.—Mr. Amity went in defendant's cab at four o'clock the previous afternoon to the House of Commons, where he alighted. As a gentleman, who had accompanied him, had to return to Temple-bar, he le t him to pay be fare. Complainant told the cabman at the time he was set down, that he was late, end that the gen tleman would go back with him ; hut he did not remember whether he said the gentleman would pay him. On leaving the house at half-past 12 he maw the defendant, who de manded 12a. as his fare. Complainant asked to see his badge, expresaing his willingness to pay him if he would produce it, as in the event of its turning out that anything was wrong he might have his remedy. Defendant said he had not got his badge. Com plainant was about to get into another cab, when the defendant called to the driver, " I give you notice you can't take that gentleman—he's my fare." Defendant then thrust himself between complainant and the cab, and pre vented his getting in, and finding it difficult to get in with out a personal struggle withdefendant be gave him into cus tody. If the defendant had shown him his badge he should at once have paid him.—Defendant, in reply to the charge, said he waited till complainant came out and asked him to pay him, when he replied that he never told him to wait, but would pay him 501. if he demanded it. He, however, never offered to pay hint anything. He told complainant that the badge was in his cab, and he would fetch it. Defendant ad mitted that he followed the gentleman and got before the cab door to prevent his entering.—The constable, who took defendant, proved seeing defendant take his badge out of his cab on the way to the struion.—Mr. Anstey did cot know whether the fare had;hcan paid by the ether gentleman as he had not had an opportunity of ,eetng him since.—Mr. Broderip ordered defendant to find bail for his appearance on Monday next. LAM METH.—PLATE ROBBERY.—./. Simpson slits Scott, and Mary Ann Simpson alias Taylor, were re-examined. charged with stealing plate and jewellery of the value of 1001., the property of Mr. J.

A report has been current to-day about an East India house, not of the first class, bat still under stood to be under liabilities far about 150,0001., which at present need not be named. It may be hoped that the affair may yet be compromised with an allowance of time, or otherwise. Our Liverpool advices add another to the list of misfortunes sustained in that important commercial community. Mr. George Hargreaves, who has been, it is said, in difficulties for some time, has failed, but his liabilities are not large, perhaps, not exceeding 40,000!. The failure of the licuse of De Bruyn and Sons, of Amsterdam, appears in some quarters to be exag gerated in its gross amount and constquentes. bo Jar as can be ascertained, the responsibilities of the firm, in respect to the sugar refining business, amount to about 125,0001., of which 70,0001. lie with various London houses. But besides this amount the house in default is committed to a large expenditure for gas works, the amount of which is not known. The sugar refining works are perhaps the most perfect and extensive in Europe, and the most profitable. The go vernment came to the aid of the house therefore in its first embarrassments on the legitimate ground that so many hundreds of people would be thrown out of bread on stoppage of the works. But it was found eventually that governmental interferenee could be of no avail, short of taking the whole affair in hand, and so the house was brought to a stand still. It has been said that the mi.-fortune of this house having made money by the sugar relining led them forward . by pro- tecting laws into embarking capital on this specula tion of gas works. All disposable capital and more was thus engulfed. They undertook not oaly to supply Amsterdam, but Utrecht, Nimeguen, and other large cities with gas. The failure, with such a perversion of capital may, therefore, be readily accounted for. Foreign stocks remain much the same. We have Mexican 171 to I. Brazilian, 70 to 81. Chilian, 90 to 2. Span's!' Fives, 17' to 1 ; the Threes, 2s l to 9 1 . Dutch Two-and-a-Mall per Cents. 66 to 6 ; the Fours, 84 to 5. Foreign exchange has undergone little variation to day.
