The moment he the defendants wee resumed yesterday gaerelag by Mr. Mains, and mother question arose by way Of episode to this elaborate cute. In the original suit, Windt was instituted by the plaintiff, Mrs. Percival, the three eammittees of Miss Caney's estate, Stanton, Verve ll, and Page, were joined aa defendants. Mrs. Page, the wife of oue of the committees in that suit, was examined as a witness on behalf ol the defendants. Subsequently, as folly captained in our report of yesterday, the lunatic died, sad the nit was revived against the three committees sod M. Page and Mrs. Verrell, as the next of kin and plasm t rs stratrixes of the lunatic. In the court below, the Vice-Chancellor held that Mrs. Page's deposition was taut admissible as evidence in the revived suit. TM now question arose and was elaborately argued yesterday. Mr. Nabs was proceeding with his comment en the evidence adduced, to show the insanity of the dee fondant, Mica Carley, in ll4iH, when Mr. Russell, on be half of the plaintiff, objected that the deposition was Mad sensible. Counsel were heard at length on both aide., but the argument need nut be stated, as it will appear from the judgment. The Lord Chancellor said he was of opinion that this de position was admissible as tenancy. It was the exami nation of the wife of a person who atuod in the position of defendant in the original cause, which suit had been subsequently revived us the common form, so as to include that witness at a defendant. The point had been very ex tentively c.irrieil out in the argument, sod it gave rite to some rather peculiar questions. The first point that anise was, whither Page could he examined. It was ne cessary, thertione to inquire what ens his po sition and legal character at the time that the deposit ' of Mrs. Page was taken Ile was simply a defendant in the character of committee of the lunatic, Sarah Caney. Ile (the Lord Chancellor) had devoted particular inquiry to the question of tho power which the cementer of a lunatic re ceived from the crown. 'That point hail been very clearly decid , 1, sod the conclusion was that the committee took no interest or estate from the crown, but had a mere authority to manage the estate; he, therefore, considered that Page had then uu interest in the lunatic's estate, fur nothing ap peared to make the committees defendants exeept as com mittee, of the estate. Mr. Page, therefore, stood as a de fendant without interest, not even eta trustee, for he was nut so inuili as a trustee, his position only amounting to that of a joint manager of the estate. But it was said that m one of the detendentt to that suit he was liable for costs. Suppoeing that Mr. nice had any liability with regard to the costa, or proceeding a step beyond that, that he was liable as to the subject matter of that suit, nothing could be clearir than the proviso of the act of par liament that a defendant may be examined on behalf of a co-delentlant, or on behalf of the plaintiff, notwith standing hit interiet in the matter in dispute. Whether, therefore, he was liable in respect of the subject matter or for yeti, that would term no objection to his being ere mite il. It was said that an examination could only be made by order. art order made before the enactment which made defendants liable to be examined. The question then arose were the defendants monied to such an order ? Ile thought th it as Mr. Page had no interest is the suit be yond his character as committee, that he was entitled to have that order. But seturnine that Mr. Page could be examined, did it follow that his wife could be examined ? The lung established rule of law was that a wife could not be examined fur or against her husband. No alteration had yet hen made on the, established rule of law. It was a rut • founded. in his opinion, on • principle which Wilson" valuable a yen than the administration of justice, and that was saying a great deal—the necessity of tiresereing the confi dence and the happiness of domestic life. The liability to error through misconception, the preservation of the confi dence which should i list between man and wife, supported the mod rule that a wile should not be called on to give evi dence against her husband. Many valuable opinions had doubtless been expremed against that rule, but until the legialeure eaprretal a clear opinion on the subject he should not feel justified in departing from it. Therefore, though ho was clearly of opinion that Mr. Page could be examined, he doubted much whether as a general rule it would result that Mrs. Page could he examined also. Dot inasmuch re Mr. Page had no interest in the original suit, It seemed to him that in no sense could the examination of Mrs. Peke be said to be evidence against her husband so as to brew it within the rule of law which would have en eluded her testimony. Ile thought, therefore, that she was properly admitted as a witness. Looking at the prayer of the original bill, and the issue raised at the time Mrs. Page was examined, he was of opinion that 1 the was neither examined for or against her husband. The corniest& ,ee which had subsequently occurred td champe the character of the defendants in the revived suit, could not diet the admissibility of that evi dence. It accrued to blim therefore, on a consideration of the whole cireunistangies of the case, that the deposition of Mrs. Peg, could now be admitted and used as evidence.

The Vice-Chancellor gave judgment at the sittings( the court this morning. His Honour said the question sa to Captain Tangier's liability was said to be concluded by the decisions is Roberts' ease and Besley's case ; but the essen tial difference between the present case and all the others was that Captain Tanme was a party to the resolution of the 7th of October. Itt4s, appoisting the committee of ma nalremest This circumstance did not exist is the case of Roberts. It is true he was at the meeting, but he left it before the resolution was passed, and the Lords Commie. aioners expressly rested the it judgment on the ciresunstiu.ce that be did not concur in the resolution ; and, referring to the case of Besley, it appeared that he had nothing to do with the meeting, and the Lord Chancellor rests his judg ment on the fact that he did not attend the subsequent meeting. This is reptatvalystated in his lordship's judgment. The question bef ore the court was as to Captain Tanner's liability to contribute to the expenses incurred by the committee of management. in whose appointment he must be taken to have concurred, and he considered that this question depended entirely on the relation in which the committee of management steed to the provisionil eem mittee, or at least to those suembere of that committee whit concurred in the appointment. If the committee of ma nagement was to he retard ed ge • onlienteinsittee of the provisional committee, t the members et the Wood committee who appointed the mormidttse er:ss r t nagement might well he liable se metrliame twee& the exposers incurred by that committee ; but the eene would he vary different if the committee of management we to he regarded es • body of persons acting in the hnestion of the projected company for themselves, and of the provisional eonsmit'sr.

The committee of management was the committee of the intended company, and nut of the affairs of the pro vidonal committee, and the contracts they en tered into were on behalf the company they had undertaken to form, and not on behalf of the Ora visional committee. Thus the engineers employed to make and deposit the surveys, plans, and seetaests, were engaged in the name of the company, and the account opened with the Beene Bank was in the name of the com pany. The committee of management charged themselves with these duties en their own responsibility, and were not I diligent' of the provisional committee. Looking at the decisions on this subject, his Ilanour weld not see any ground on which the committee of management could be authorised at law or in equity to call on the provisional committee for • contribution towards the expenses incurred. In December, It i 5, the project was abandoned. Debts, however, having been incurred by the managing com mittee, they made • report, in which, after giving an ac count of what they had done and of the position of the under taking,they stated that they had bees advised by counsel that the provisional committee was liable fee the debts of the com pany, and • meeting of thu provisional committee was called for the alit of December to receive this report, and to take into consideration the liabilities, and decide on the best means of settling the claims on the company. The pro visional committee had taken no part whatever in the pro. ceedings of the committee of management ; they appear to have ceased to set from the 7th of October, and they were in no way liable in respect of the debts incurred. Capt. Tanner attended the meeting of the 31st of Decem her sa a numb, rof the provisional committee, but it ap peared to hint that Capt. Tanner was at that time under so liability to the creditors or to contribute to the commit ! tee of management, and he attended the meeting under the same eirtusustances as Besley did, and if so the Lord Chan ' eellor's judgment in Boilers ease had established that he did nut become liable as • contributory by concurrieg in the resolutions passed at the meeting. Subsequently to that time, Captain Tanner took an active part in winding-up the affairs of the company, he attended general meetings of the provisional committee fur the pure pose of adjusting claims on the company and obtaining con tributions, and he acted on a finance committee eppeinted to investigate the accounts of the company: but if he was not originally liable as a contributors-, his subsequent con duct could nut make him liable. 'the Lord . Chancellor's observations on llesley s case, which his Honour toad, appeared to be conclusive on this part of the cue. Captain Tanner's name must th, retort he removed from the list of contributories, but without costs. COURT OF QUEENS BENCIL—TESTERDAT. Ihrnpus us klAxvo.—iitattaz Low CAirms.., 111 a. Jt @TICS PAITBION, AIM M. Jrmca Warr.Aw. THE Quisrt v. IImanuND.—JUDGIIRST. A quo warrautu had been granted in this ease, calling spun the defendant to Ally by what authority he exercised the office of town councillor of the borough of Great Yar mouth. The case was argued in the present term, and re ported in the Express.. Lord Canipbed now gave judgment, and said it was re quired of the court to put a construction on the words " place of abode" in the 32ud seetiun of bth and tith Wil liam IV., cap. 76, which enacted that every burgess entitled to vote in the election of councillor might vote for any person by delivering to the mayor and swum a voting paper containing the Christian and surname of the person for whom he votes, with his " place of abode" and descrip tion. At the time of his election to the office of town councillor of Great Yarmouth the defendant resided in High-street, and carried on business as a miller in Church road, his places of residence and business being both in the parish of tiorlstone and iu the borough of Great Yarmouth. A eertaiu number of voting papers desenbed him as "Wil liam Hammond, of Church-r o ad, Gorlstoae, miller." After an attentive consideration of the act, the court had come to the conclusion that "place of abode" meant " place of real dente." Joluton's Dictionary defined "abode" as "ha bitation, dwelling, place of residence." A man's place of resi dence was where he lived with his family, and where he slept. The case of " Riekett v. Williams" (3 Meeson and !Lampe), which had been cited by defendant's counsel, did out apply to the present ease • bat has reference to another act of parliament. In the present case the court had been much pressed by the feet that the defendant was as well known by his place of buai ' nese, as by his place of residence, but they held that the "place of busiue.," was sufficient, they must lay down a general rule which would defeat the object of the legislature ; and if they qualified it by a condition that the party must be equally well known by his place of business or residence, great confusion would be introduced. The words must, therefore, be taken in their plain and ordinary sense, and the rule to set aside the verdict and fur a new trial made absolute. Rule absolute. COURT OF EXCIIEQUER.-YEZTERDAY. amuses AT JIM lears, IN Lomm—lareas YL SAWA PLATT Al4l , • IiPICI4.I. JOIT. WTXX O. FIZMINOWLY.—Tsar This was as action upon a bill of exchange for 2001. drawn by a Mr. Aspinall upon the defendant, and accepted by him, and indorsed to the plaintiff. Upon the pleadings tt was not denied that the bill was drawn, accepted, and ladersed, as stated in the declaration, but the defence set l ap we that the bill was simply given to ensure the delivery of the bons Bleho,which had been purchased by the plaintiff log the defendant, and which had, in feet, been since deli vered, and therefore that the plaintiff was not entitled to recover. An action was tried a week ago, in which the now defendant was plaintiff, which action was to recover 2001., the balance of the pureliase-money of the horse, and on that occasion the then plaintiff was committed for perjury. The plaintiff in this case was, up to last Wednesday. the manager of the Birkenhead branch of the North and South Weks Bank, and the defendant was described as an African merchant, but the action arose out of certain turf transactions. to consequence of the form of the pleadings, the defendant'• case was first laid before the jury. The defendant and many other witnesses were called, and according to th, it statements the defendant and Aspinall called upon the plaintiff at the bank on Saturdsy, the 21st of June last, and, in consequence of what took place, the defendant, the plaintiff, and Aspinall went on the Saturday to Cheltenham, and on the Sunday they saw the horse Mello at Mr. Scott's. The defendant screed to sell Etch° to the plaintiff for 4001., and on the 30th June I the plaintiff paid 1101. on account, which, with 601., the amount of another transaction, made 2001., leaving 2001. still due. The ball in question was given as security for the delivery of the horse, which was to be delivered in time to run for the Liverpool Cup on the 10th of July. A number of witnesses were called, who proved con- elusively that the defendant was not in Liverpool on the 26th of June, the date of the bill, nor within several days of that time. The ilsTntiff himself, Mr. Aspinall, and several other witnesses were called to make out the plaintiff's can. The plaintiff deposed that the defendant told him when he saw the hone on the Sunday at Scott's. that be (the horse) could not lose the Liverpool Cup. On the 30th of June the defendant called upon plaintiff at the bank, and plaintiff paid him 310/. in money on account of the horse, making, with the 601., the whole of the purchase money. , It wax his own money, and had never been any portion of the bank money. On the 9th of July the defendant sent a telegraphic message from London to plaintiff, directing him to meet the hone at Edge-hill. The horse, however, was not sent in accordance with this message, but plaintiff afterwards received the horse at Cheltenham from Scott. The defendant was present when the hone was delivered up, and he made no claim on plaintiff, but plaintiff paid 441,, the amount due to Scott. Plaintiff, on the 26th of July, a month after the date of the bill in question, ad vanced to Aspinall 1001. upon it out of his own money. Mr. John T. Aspinall, who is a coal-agent at Birkenhead, stated that in the early part of June defendant told him he could put him on to the winner of the Liverpool Cup, and asked Win if he could find • purchaser for Eleho. He in tentioned him to Wynn, and they all went to Cheltenham to see him. The defendant applied to witness to lend him ening massy before he went, and when he came back he laid be ewe have some money. Witness drew the bill in question in Wynn's parlour at the bank, and it was ac cepted by the defendant, and witness gave him 2001. upon it out of money he had in his own pocket. Witness kept the bill until the 26th July, and then he got the plaintiff to lend him 2001. upon it. On the 30th of June witness saw the plaintiff pay the defendant 3401. On the 6th ofJuly defendant, Scott, and witness dined together, and it was then said that the mare Truth, which belonged to the de fendant, had beaten Etch*, and Scott said it was of no use to send Eleho to Liverpool. Thomas Wilk., a clerk to the last witness, was called, and said that he had seen the bill in question in Mr. Aspinall's possession in the month of July, and after the Liverpool nee a hone trainer named Billington had both Truth and Elcho to train for the defendant. On the 2.5 th June Truth was taken away, and the defendant left • letter for Billington, in which he said, If she does all we ask her we shall back her for the Liverpool Cup. You shall be in whatever I get. Mind, do not let any one know that , the mare is gone any where. If any one asks, you say site is amen and having physic." The mare was not amiss at this time. Etch° was tried with her in March, end the defendant was present. Truth beat Eleho very easily. Elcho broke down at York in August, IMO, and was consequently tired in September following. Part of the charge made against the defendant was that be had represented that Bloho was sure to win the Liverpool Cup when be had entered Truth, which he knew to he a better horse, for the same race. His Lordship, in summing up, directed the jury that the ease was one entirely for them and be then teed through his notes of the evidence, poin ting out tho contradictions between the evidence, and he starred them, without fear or favour, to give their verdict on that aide on which, ae , cording to their opinion, the truth lay. The jury immediately returned a verdict for 2001., the amount of the bill, and 31, interest. 1 MIDDLEBEX BEBBIONB.—YEBTEILDAT. Mr. Witham briefly charged the grand jury. SINTRXICI.

Mr. Norman, of IJYM Heieain, anTaioneer, and a person winnadJimitiage, hie enreond, appeared on an adjourne d summens. elmirging Mauna with obtaining V. and Jen nings with obtaining 6i. from Barahßottrill, with intent to defraud. The farts of the ease (which appeared in the Ezpress of Thursday tut) were shortly the..: On the night of Mrs. Bottrill's husband's death Jennings called on her, and ad vised her to employ Norman, who he stated was en attor ney, to ascertain what rights he had under her husband's will, and she paid Jennings 51 for this purpose and Nor man 71. It was ascertained that her marriage was illegal, as her husband's Seat wife was her aunt. Norman, in his defence, then said he had only acted in making inquiries about the property, and in ascertaining whether her hus band had another wife alive ; but denied that ho had ever represented himself as • solicitor, He however produced • bill which was couched in the terms usually employed by attorneys. Jennings stated that he had done business for Mrs. Bet trill at her request, for witch she paid him the Si. The case was then adjourned. On the present occasion Mrs. Bottrill was again called, and swore positively that she paid the 71. to Norman solely for the purpose of entering a caveat against her husband's will in Doctor's-commons, which she found had not been done, and never gave any instructions for journeys to Maidenhead and Windsor to make inquiries about her husband, for which he had charged in his bill. She was severely crow-examined by Mr. Duncan, who appeared for Norman, and her evidence appearing somewhat confiicting, Alderman Sidney, after consulting with Sir Chapman Marshall, the sitting alderman, said that, although lie en tertained a strong opinion that Norman should not have undertaken business which properly belonged to • soliritor only, yet as the case entirely depended on Mrs. Bomars evidence, he did not think it would be sufficient to obtain a conviction ; ho should, therefore, dismiss the ease against him. With respect to Jennings, Mrs. Bottrill had her remedy against him in another court. Mr. Norman, at a suggestion from Sir Chapman Mar shall, undertook to repay the 71. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A well-dressed person handed in a paper, which he said contained a declaration he was desirous of making. Mr. Bingham looked over the paper and found it to be a statement made by Nathaniel Hale, Principal of the College of Animal Magnetism, Store -street, to the effect that Miss Ann Bannister, after having in vain applied to eminent medical practitioners for the curs of a complaint under which she suffered, had been completely cured by the ap plication of animal magnetism. Mr. Bingham said the paper came under the denomina tion of a voluntary affidavit, which he was not allowed to take, except in cases where an accusation was made. Mr. Hale said he had been advised to make the declara tion. Mr. Bingham replied he must have been very ill•adrised in that cue. The only way in which such en affidavit could be of service was this—in case he should be tried for manslaughter for causing death by the instrumentality of animal magnetism, he might then put in a declaration that this person had been cured by the process, which in the other cut had caused death.—The paper rat handed beck, and the gentleman left the court. LAMBETTI. Gtorge Morris, a master smith, was charged with inter marrying with Emma Palmer, his former wile Aun being still alive. Both the wives were in attendance. On the 31st of May, 1816, the prisoner was married, at Lambeth Church, to the first, whose maiden name was larding, and on the 28th of September last was married to the prusecutria, at St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, after a year's courtship, during which time he represented himself to be a single man. The prisoner, who offered nothing in defence, was fully committed fur trial. Mary Lomien, the young woman who had been in cus tody since Thursday last on a charge of setting fire to her master's house, was placed at the bar for final examination. The evidence against the accused was of • very suspi cious character, hut, owing to her youth, and the extreme illness of her mistress, brought on in • great measure through the fright occasioned by the fire, the prosecutor did nut wish to press the charge, and the prisoner was dis charged, after a severe admonition as to her future conduct. Mr. Norton requested our reporter to acknowledge the receipt of the remaining half of a ten pound note, No. 91,800, for the poor•box. SOUTHWARK. John BUT, a journeyman copp e rrmith, residing in Bruns wickodreet, Horsernonger•lane, was charged with attempt ing to murder Mary lfiff, kis mother, a woman advanced in years. The unfortunate complainant war unable to attend the examination, being confined in one of the Borough hospitals, in consequence of the serious nature of the injury inflicted upon her by the hand of her own son. The prisoner was in the house with his mother on Sunday, and as she was sitting by the fire he approached her gently and drew • knife across her throat. Assistance was ren dered upon her crying out, while the son ran off to Horse monger-lane tiao!, and deutauded to be apprehended as • murderer. On the present occasion he assented to all the evidence against him, and was remanded. HAMMERSMITH. George Pearce, a stout built young man, aged twenty one years, was charged with having seriously 'insulted James Hawkins, and Samuel Puddetoot, one of the sum moning °Ricers of the court, while in the execution of his du 4 7 l:;• offence was committed in August last, and the officer* have been in search of the prisoner since that period as there were three warrants out fur his apprehension, two for strewn of affiliation orders, and one for the assault upon Puddefoot, l'uddefoot deposed that in August last he held two war rants for the apprehension of the prisoner for neglecting to pay the arrears of an order made at that court, and on Sunday the 2lth of the same month be received information where the prisoner was to be found. lie accordingly proceeded in the evening to the Castle Tavern, Notting - hill, where he saw the prisoner, and afterwards apprehended him upon the warrants. They had only gone a short distance when they were immediately surrounded by a mob of blackguards, between fifty and sixty persons who entirely prevented them from proceed ing any fur th er . Witness kept a firm hold of the prisoner, and they remained in the mob about twenty minutes, during which time he received several severe blows and kicks. The prisoner resisted as much as ho possibly could, and endeavoured to make his escape. Witness believed the prisoner struck him at that time, but he was not quite posi tive. Hawkins, the waterman on the cab-stand, rendered every assistance in his power, and by means of main force he got the prisoner a few yards further. The mob again surrounded them and the prisoner most cruelly kicked the waterman repeate dly upon the leas, until be fell eithauqed; and witness afterwards understood that the man fainted in consequence of the violence of the attack. The prisoner then succeeded in throwing witness, and while upon the ground the prisoner stamped upon his right band. His right arm was also much injured, and he received other kicks and blows. The primmer made his escape, and wit ' ness was only able to apprehend him on Saturday night. The witness added that he still felt the effects of the inju ries be had received from the prisoner, and he was afraid his arm would always be weak in consequence. James Hawkins, the waterman, said he was laid up three weeks in consequence of the injuries be had received from the prisoner. Mr. Deaden observed that it was a very bad ease, and he should punish the prisoner most severely. Ho fined the prisoner in the full penalty of fit, or two months' imprison meat (or the assault upon the witness Hawkins, and he further sentenced him to one month's imprisonment for the assault upon the officer. The prisoner was locked up, and Mr.Beadon aid he could sot act upon the other warrants at present, but they would stand as detainers against the prisoner. RAILWAY RATING. THE LONDON AND NOLLTH•WESTERN AND THE PARISH OF ST. PANCRAS. - • -- - It is well known that the London end North Western Company and the parish of St. Pancras have for some time past been at war upon the subject of the rates to be paid for the Euston station. The contending parties having agreed to a reference, an award was given, reducing the rateable value of the company's property from 27,3601. to 15,45401. This award the parish refused to acknowledge, and notwithstanding they had agreed to treat all moneys paid to the parish as payments on account of the disputed and future rates, upon a subsequent rate levied a distress on a portion of the company's working stock, refusing to give the company credit for a sum of money paid in emu of the previous rate. The company replevied on the property, and the matter has been recently before Loid C hief Justice Campbell, Mr. Justice Patteson, Mr. Justice Coleridge, and Mr. Justice Wightman, in proceeds in the Court of Queen's Bench—the London and North Western Railway Company v. Bedford. The question has been Wetly placed before our readers under the usual head " Law Intelligence," but its importance will render the following more ample report interesting to our railway reader,. -- The matter was first brought under the considerations( the learned jellies as Monday hist, by Mr. Pushley. Mr. Peabley said—My lords, in a case of the London and North-Waders llatlway Company v. Bedford, an action of replevin, I rte move on behalf of the plaintiffs for • rule to show epee why all proceedings should not be stayed. I think prebelay that will be sufficient to insure the doing all that is right between the parties, although it may nut de cide asytilmitiast is involved in the dispute between them. The prong esti= arises out of a reference made between lb• Mien eras tise vestry of the pariah of tit. Pancras, ender which make It neoemary for me to state to your lordships bow that vestry exists, said what are their prima It by a load set of the Nth Gawp 111., nip. so, ing a seine vestry in tbe poet* ef St. Proems. is the esenty of Iflddlosez, and other purposes relating thorN e ho mermen tithe parish of dt.

That is under the third section. I will advert by-and-bye to some other classes of the act. I will now primed to state to your lordship what are the facts which have given rise to this question. A subsequent claws (sec. 91) gives power to this vestry to appoint directors of the poor, who are to manage the li pow. Section OD gives powers to make rates, and section 96 gives them powers entirely beyond the ordinary powers of parish officers via.; the sitting to hear any objections to their own rates! and giving relief, as a sort of court of appeal, to all parties aggrieved by any rates which they have made. That see. 96 will probably be very material in judging of this case. By that they have complete power of giving redress to any person aggrieved by any rate which they may cause tobo made. Now, it appears that, on the 16th March, 1840, a rate was made in due form, in all re spects, except as to the quantum, upon the L ondon and North-Western Railway Company, in respect of their station and other property, which, probably, your lordships arc all personally acquainted with, as most of us must be, situate in the pariah of St. Pancras. The parish thought proper to estimate that station and the other property there at the rateable value of upwards of 27,0001. The company being advised that was • most extravagant sum, about double what it ought to be, intimated their intention of ap plying for relief under the statute, and they applied to the vestry. On that occasion, the vestry took what seems tome to have been an exceedingly proper view of the matter, of their own duty, and of the character of that proceeding. They said it was quite impossible fur them to decide the question at all. They thought they could not, in a matter of this sort, with any advantage to either party,deal with the question; that it would be better, in the lint instance, to refer it to a person competent to form an opinion, and to report to them the result (and a Mr. I'entold was named), if the company would give the necessary information. The company were willing to give all possible information to the surveyor or valuer appointed by the vestry, and that was done. Thu result was, that the company received a communication from those they consulted, and then came to the conclusion, I believe unanimously, after ample consideration, that by far the best course would be, not for the company to do what, in ordinary Cleft, they might have done—have taken the decision of the vestry, and then have gone to the sessions, but to refer it to a gen tleman of high standing and competency at the bar, to decide between the parties the real sum at which they ought to be rated. That was proposed by the vestry. Three names were proposed by my clients, all of them counsel of eminence at the bar, out of which the vestry were to make their choice, and they received in answer to that proposition a communication that they could adopt a like mode of selection. They referred it to a committee to report to the vestry upon it. They came to a resolution that 'the report of the com mittee relative to the appeal of the London and North- Western Itailway Company, and so on, be received and adopted, and that be referred back to the committee with full power to refer it to a barrister of eminence to be agreed upon." The result was that a gentleman well known in the profession and of great capacity was appointed to determine this question. On the first meeting the vestry had not their counsel there, so that a delay of a month took place, but ultimately, in the month of April lest year, the arbitration was attended by both parties, and by counsel on both sides with a supply of competent evidence to determine the dispute between the parties. The submission to reference here contained • term extremely proper, to which I will invite your lordship.' attention for a moment, because upon that the question will turn. Not only was the arbi trator to dispose of that rate but, as was most desirable in the cue of public bodies like these, he was to do something to prevent future disputes between these parties. It would naturally arise that pendente lite, ether rates, would he made, and the company, with an immense assessment like this (upwards of 27,0001 ), and a very large amount to be paid on such rate, would have to appeal against rates so made, pendente fire ; and to avoid the necessity tor so ap• pealing, a term had been introduced into the agreement which had prevented the company from exercising their right of appeal, and consequently the company have lost all right of appeal, and all redress for_grievaaces, if griev ances there have been, pendente life. The agreement is this —" his agreed that the award ef the arbitrstor,in reference to the said assessment of the 16th March, 18.50, shall rope late the assessment of any future rates which may be made by said parish up to the date of such award "—only up to that point—after the award is made, of course the parish may rate us at three times the amount if they please, and we shall have a remedy by appealing; hut a provisi o n is inserted that, in the meantime, the tweed of the arbirutor shall regulate the assessment. Not that the Arbitrator is to say anything about it ; hut that award is to regulate the future assessment, " and that all payments made by the company in respect of such future rates" (these are the material words) " shall be treated and considered as pay ments on account, in the same manner as the payments already made in respect of the present rate." This is the agreement. I do not mean to say it will have the effect of making the moneys so paid actually payments on account; they would be so ; but it is an agreement on the part of the vestry, so far as they can mace to anything, that they will treat all sums paid in the intervening time as money on ac count; and, therefore, they ought not to enforce the inter- I veiling rates in respect of such excess. Lord Campbell—The agreement is very intelligible. Mr. rashley—Yes ; it seems not only very clear, but ex• tremely fair. Lord Campbell—lt is a very fair agreement. Mr. rashley—The wish professed very great anxiety that it should be done in proper form, that it should be binding on all parties. A suggestion was made by the company that it should be an agreement under seal by the entire parish ; but the attorney fur the vestry pointed out claus e s i n th e ac t of parliament by which it was clear (and I do not dispute it) that the parish would be bound by what was done, and Ido not dispute that they are so. The award decides that the rateable value of the property (the gross annual amount is immaterial) was very nearly what the company asked to have it reduced to—via., 15,510/., and reduced it by about 12,0001.—from 27,000:. to 15,5101. Now, without troubling your lordships with the details of the figures of what was paid in the meantime, I may state that it is clear and undisputed there was as much at 4001. paid before the award was made in excess of the whole amount of the next following rate. Lord Campbell—For which the company ought now to have credit. Mr. Pashley—Yes ; the neat rate after the award was made was for a large sum of more than 1,0001, ; the whole of that the company is entitled tohave credit for, and nearly 400/. more, because it is quite clear that that rate might not to have been enforced in any way. The parish think proper to dispute the award for a reason I will mention to your lordships. They summon us before a magistrate when a distress warrant is applied for, and the magistrate says, " Since there is a question made about the award I shall not go into that at all, I shall leave you to your remedy elsewhere. There has been no actual payment of that particular rate; if the is a set off, that is a matter I can not go into." Upon that the company's first-class and other carriages were seized, and they had no alternative but to replevin, and having replevined before, they de clare (lying ruled to declare by the defendants), we come to your lordships. Firit, their wish was to have made some application, for which it would have been necessary to have the submission a rule of court. Feeling the pa rish would do what was correct, tho company had not even possessed themselves of a duplicate of the submission, and they applied to the parish solicitor for a copy of the submiseion, but it was refused. They then asked ham to make an affidavit of the submission, and that was refused. I should be entitled to make the su bmission a rule of court, according to the decided cases, but I do not know that 1 want to make it a rule of court. Lord Campbell—An action pending. Mr. Justice Coleridge—l thought you said the award was disputed. Mr. rashley—Yes; I will state the only material point which could go to the sword. It is upon this ground— Mr. Justice Coleridge—lt was not disputed upon the award. Mr. Pashley—No, my lord. They say before the magis trate they dispute the award ; there is a different party in cv w e er ev n e o r w yt . hi T ng he i y n ity e t7 .o the . magis u tzte the i t i a y l o a m u e zie o lto „ party may come into power, and the new body may be dis posed to repudiate what has been done. Lord Campbell—Why, even after a revolution. what bas been done by the preceding government is generally considered binding between that nation and a foreign nation. ifriPashley—There is an act of parliament which sanc tions this. Any usurper is king de facto. Lord Campbell—llowever what objection is made ? _ _ Mr. Pashley—l understand it is that a ease in the Court of Exchequer, of " Thorne v. Coll" (2 Crompton, ?demur, and Roscoe) bas decided or is supposed to have decided, that the parish officers, when an appeal is made against • poor-rate, have no power to refer the question to arbi tration. Lord Campbell—That does not at all tench the good faith of these proceedings, or show that the merits have not been adjudicated upon by the arbitrators. Mr. Puhley—And beyond that, in the present case, they are not mete parish officers, they are actually the parish, having the power to give full redress, ea a court of appeal, to parties sggrieved. The parish officers cannot alter the rate by &shilling, the parish has the power to do so to the full extent, and hero they go further, and directly consent to refer it to arbitration. Mr. Justice Coleridge—Your motion is to stay proceed ing. in the action of replevin ? Mr. Pashley—That is the object. Mr. Justice Coleridge—Then will not the distress go on? Mr. Puhley—No. The distress has been levied, and we have replevined our goods, and I want not to be pressed on in the replevin. Although the company would not like to give up the 4001., yet perhaps they would be satisfied if they prevented the gross inju.nce of I,oooi. being taken out of their pockets twice over, in what does seem a most discredi- ' table manner. Lard Campbell—There would he great difficulty in your pleading this ; but upon your statement, which we must believe until it is contradicted, this is a proceeding contrary to good faith and to honesty. Mr. Paahley —lt seems unoontradicted upon the written documents. Lord Campbell—Beeause the parish ought to have given you credit for over payments down to the time of the date of the award. _ _ Mr. Paahley—lf I could hare teen that we could have pleaded it, I should not have said that we ought to come here, but I am afraid it can only be upon the award. Lord Campbell—We wish to hear what the other aide have to say, and therefore we grant a rale to show caws. Rale nisi pasted. Oa Wedusday the subject was Apia liu wise*.

Judging from the Custom House returns for the eleven months end ing the sth December last, it appears that the increase in the consumption of tea, which has been going steadily for ward (or several years past, still continues to advance at a rate which must be highly satisfactory to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. During the three previous years, the tea consumed in the United Kingdom, and the revenue which it yielded, were as follows : 1818 1849 1850 Should the last month of 1851 show the same rate of con sumption as had been maintained up till then, the returns for last year will exhibit the following result : 18,51 Ten years ago, before any great change had taken place in our commercial policy, the entire consumption of tea in Great Britain and Ireland amounted to 36,675,6671 h. ; so that the Increase since then has been more than 17,000,0001 b., or nearly 50 per cent. As the population is not much larger than it was in 1811, it is fair to conclude that there must be a larger number of people in comfortable circum stances now than there *ere at the former period, whatever Mr. Newdegate may say to the contrary. During the ten years from 1831 to 1841, in spite of an increase of nearly 3,000,000 in the population of the country, and notwithstanding the impetus given to the tea trade by the abolition of the East India Company's mono poly ia 1833, the increased consumption was only 6,675,5661 b. Great as the increase has been of late years, however, it is very far short of what we might expect to see were the duty reduced to a moderate per centime on the value of the article as it COMM! from the Chinese merchant. In Jersey and Guernsey, where there is no duty on tea, the average consumption is 411 b. per head per annum. The same rate for the United Kingdom would require an annual importation of nearly 120,000,0001 h., which is more than the Celestial Empire could supply without many years' warning. But no one would ever propose even a large re duction of the tea duty all at once, much leas • total aboli tion. If it could he gradually reduced from its present ex orbitant amount to is. per lb., spreading the reduction over several years, the revenue would not suffer much, while the comfort of the people would be greatly increased, and our trade with China would probably be very greatly improved. —Manchester Guardian. DRAINAGE OF TIIY. lIAARLEM LAKE.—We under stand, with much regret, that the drainage of this lake, which wee commenced. in ISIG, is likely, by adverse cir cumstances, to be delayed two or three years more, before the 60,000 or 60,000 acres of land covered by this vast sheet of water can be laid bare. Gigantic and proportionately powerful as were the engines, they have not been proof against accidents arising from the severe work they have had to perform. The boilers are leaky and out of order, and have been sent to Amsterdam for repairs, while several portions of the machinery have become unfit for service, and will have to bo replaced.

It ought to have been made a rule of court some time ago, and we wish to make it so now, because it is important we should make the submission a rule of court to prevent ulterior proceedings, de hors, the award altogether. There is but one part which is iu tho hands of the solicitor for the parish of Bt. Pancras. and we applied to him to produce it, so that it might be made • rule of court. That seems the most proper course. In some case the court has made • copy a rule of court; but 1 understand the Master thinks this is the proper course. We accordingly applied to the parish solicitor to produce the origival. Ile demurred at first; said he would consult counsel, and ultimately he refused, and still refuses to produce it. Lord Campbell—ls there a stipulation that the submis sion is to be made a rule of court ? Mr. Ptahley—Yes, my lord; I therefore now ask for a rule calling on the parish solicitor to show cause why he should not produce it, that it may be made a rule of court, and why his clients should not pay the costs of this applica tion. The thing has been done in a different mode, but, I believe, this is the more correct course.
