V. Prior, for the defendant, moved that the plaintiff might be ordered to give security for costs, on the ground of the above description being insufficient.—Mr. Hargrave, for the plaintiff, submitted that the description was as definite as If the plaintiff had been described on of some large parish 'imply; in which cue no security for coils could be re quired, and that at all events the bill might he amended. The Vice-Chancellor wee clear that the description was in sufficient, but gave the plaintiff leave to amend, on payment of all the costs of the amendment and of the motion. CHAMBERLAIN' C. BUTTON.—RESTRAINT ON TRADE.— The plaintiff and defendant had carried on business in part nership at Bermondsey, as surgeons, apothecaries, chemists, and aceouchenrs, but the defendant was alone qualified to practise as a surgeon and apothecary; his partner confining himself to the two last branches of the business. They dissolved partnership, by agreement, the defendant receiving from the plaintiff a bill of exchange for 1501., and agree ing not to practise as a surgeon or apothecary within the parish of Bermondsey for three years. The plaintiff now sought to restrain him from practicing in contravention of this agreement, and, by his affidavits, stated that he (the plaintiff) was about to quell) , himself to practise as a surgeon and apoth ecary Mr. Cairns now moved for an injunction accogly.—Mr. E. Montagu, for the defendant, contended that such an agreement could not be enforced, being in re straint of trade, except so far as the plaintiff could avail himself of it. Here he could not practise himself at all as a surgeon and apothecary, and if a person in such a situation could restrain another from practising, the malt might be that a district might be left without a sur geon, which was contrary to the principle of all the cases, one of the last of which was " Malian v. May" (13 Xenon and Wehby, 511).—The Vico-Chancellor said there was so much doubt in the case, that if the defendant would undertake not to deal in any manner with the bill of exchange for 1501,, without leave of the court, his Honour would refuse the in ion until the plaintiff bad established, by an action at law, the legality of the agreement.—The defendant agreed to this course, and the terms for bringing as action were settled.

The Animators had been granted to restrain an action at law, brought by the executors of a Mr. Wilkins against the com pany for the recovery of 2.9991., for which Wilkins had in sured his life, en the 12th of February, 1847. In that month, and late in the preceding year, Wilkins bad insured his life in other offices to the amount, altogether, of 20,0001. The policy had been assigned by Wilkins to La Sens. They had marred each other's sisters, and were on terms of the =t intimacy. By his will, dated Feb. 26 last, Wilkins pointed La Sens his trustee and residuary legatee. On the 18th of March Wilkins died at his house at Wilton street, Belgniveesquare, from supposed suffocation from a charcoal fire in his bedroom. The eircumstanees were de- tailed at the time of the coroner's inquest. The office re fused to pay the amount to La Serre, the assignee, without proof of the debt from Wilkins. The action bad been brought by La Sent in the name of the executors.—The ease was now argued upon the question whether the injunction should be dissolved, Mr, RomiUy, Mr. Glasse, and Mr. Cairns being heard in support of It ; and Mr. Roll and Mr. Greene contra, not being called upon.—His Honour decided that the injunction must be dinolved.

The specification of the defend ant's patent claimed-1. "A mode°, welding iron or steel tubes by drawing them through dies or between grooved rolls when and at the game time so drawing such tuber en men drela, the mandrel being a necessary and important part of the mechanical apparatus in producing the welding." 2. " The welding of you or steel tubes, by hammering upon a mandrel at the same time I em drawing the tube from the fire, along *mandrel, so that the tube is welded on and drawn over a mandrel at one process." 3.

Watson far the defendant —This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a mutatl instrument maker in Great Titeh field-street, Marylehone, against the defendant, who carried on a similar busmen' at Charing-cross, to recover damages for the infringement of a patent for certain improvements in the construction of drums. The invention claimed by the plaintiff consisted, it appeared, of a new method of tightening or slackening the heads of kettle-drams by means of internal machinery; and it was contended that, according to this new mode of construction the drums might be tuned more easily than by the old prin. eiple, and a greater variety of tone be produced. Nu merous witnesses were called to prow this fact, and, amongst them, were several military officers and persons having the management of military bands. The defendant pleaded first, not guilty ; secondly, that the plaintiff was not the first and true inventor; thirdly, that no letters tent had been granted to ,the plainti ff by her Majesty ; fou pa rth, that the specification was Insufficient ; fifth, that th ere was no new invention in the use of the subject matter of the patent; and sixthly, that it was no new invention in the improvement of drums. At the close of the plaintiff's ease. Mr. Sergeant Bytes euhrffitted that there was no case to go to the jury se to the infringement. and he moreover con tended that the subject matter of the patent had not been sufficiently proved.

JOXIS.—This was an action on a charter party of • vessel from • port in Portugal on a voyage to the Hannah, in which the plaintiffs, who are the owners, sought to recover the sum of 2251., which wits stipulated by them, should become " duo and pueblo at Liverpool on the expiration of one month after the sailing of the said vessel," the other half of the freight agreed upon being to be paid on the arrival of the ship at the Havannab. In answer to the declaration, which set out the above as the terms of the charter party, and alleged that the ship having sailed for one month the first instalment had become payable, the de fendaata pleaded that though the ship had sailed, as alleged in the declaration ,yet that by the act of God she was lost within the space of one month, and the plaintiffs bad refused to continue, and had abandoned, the voyage in respect of which the char ' ter party had been entered into by the defendants, and so they said that they were not liable to pay the said sum of 2251. To this plea the plaintiffs demurred generally, and now Mr. Cowling contended, for the plaintiffs, that the plea was no answer to the action. It was true that, as a general rule, freight could not be recovered until it was carried by the completion of the voyage, but it was competent to the parties to a charter party to introduce a specific contract to the contrary, and the question was, whether such a course had not been adopts d here when the defendants bound them selves to pay half of the freight within one month afterthesail log of the ship. It wu the same as though the defendants had paid the money down at once, in which case they would not have been able to recover it on the loss of the ship before the completion of the voyage.—Mr. Crompton, on the other side, submitted that the defendants were not bound to pay the sum in question under the terms of the charter party, as the ship was lost within the month, during which period, at all events, the defendants were entitled to have some con sideration for their money.—The court, however, without calling on the plaintiff , to support their demurrer, gave judg ment against the defendants. It was clear that the parties ought to be bound by the special terms introduced into their contract, and it was equally clear that the defendants bad undertaken to pay, at all events, 2251. at the expiration of one month after the sailing of the vessel. That period had elapsed, and the money had accordingly " become due and payable."—Judgment for the plaintiffs. ADMIRALTY COURT. Before Dr. Lushington. Tan fdanr.—Courstorr.—The schooner Po, of the burden of 74 tons, manned with four hands, proceeding on a voyage from Yarmouth to Newcastle. and the brig Mary, of the burden of 161 tons, manned with seven hands, on her voyage from Ipswich to Sunderland, came into collision, off the mast of Norfolk, about 11 o'clock p.m. on the Ath June last. The wind was blowing strong from the N.N.W. the Po being on the starboard and the Mary on the larboard tack. Both vowels were in ballast. On the part of the schooner it was alleged that it was the duty of the Mary to give way and pass under the lee of the ro ; that, not taking the necessary measures to effect it, she was hailed, but still took no notice, and ran into the Po, striking her with great violence on the larboard bow, by which she sustained con siderable damage. tin the part of tie brig, it was asserted that the Po, invalid of keeping her course, first starboarded sod then ported her helm, and that to this cause the acci dent was to be attributed. A cross action was entered by the Mary. The court was misted in the decision of the nautical points by Captain Welbank and Captain Ford, elder brethren of the Trinity-house. The Queen's Advocate and Dr. Bayford having been heard for the Po, and Dr. Addams and Dr. Tarim for the Mary—The learned judge, in addressing the Trinity Masters, said that it bad not been doubted that, according to the established rules of navigation, the Mary ought to have given way, and she alleged that, as a matter of fact, she did so. Two questions then arose—tint, whether she did give way ; and secondly, if so, did she do it in dna time. The Mary attributed the collision to the Po first itarboarding and then porting her helm, and the men ou board each vessel /wore to the truth of their respective statements. The questions were entirely nautical, and he (the learned judge) would leave them en tirely to the Trinity Masters, without intruding his opinion upon them.—The laity Masters considered that the blame was solely imputable to the Mary.—The learned judge pro nounced for the damage done to the Po, and dismissed the cross action against ker. Tae 81tANNON.—SALvios.—This was an action insti toted by two stsamtags, the Tiger and the Joseph and Wil liam, to recover remuneration for salvage services rendered to this vessel near the bar outside the harbour of Shields, on the 23rd of February last. On the part of the salvors it was represented that there was a amp breere from the S.S.E., with two or three feet of sea, and that, in order to render the service in question, they had given up other employment. Oa behalf of the owners it was contended that there was not a sharp breese ; that there was not more than six inches of sea ; that the entire service did not occupy more than an hour sad a half ; and that such was the state of the tide that the tugs could not have been en gaged in their ordinary occupation at the moment they ren dered this aid. The value of the property salved was 1,6001. —Dr. Addams and Dr. Curteia were heard for the salvors; Dr. Bayford and Dr. Deane for the owntrs.—The learned Judge, after commenting upon the unfair representations which had been made by earl party as to the real merits of Ithe case, awarded the sum of 801., with eosts. • COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.

The learned counsel drew his honour's attention to the proviso of the 28th sec. 7 and 8 I Vic., in which it was stated that under no circumstances should an insolvent undergo more than twelve months' im prisonment. Now, in the present case, the insolvent had undergone twelve months' imprisonment, and there fore he (Sir Francis) submitted that his client be now discharged tram custody, or, at all events, that a day be named for making a protecting 'ruler, notice being given to all the creditors. The learned counsel cited several came in support of his argument, and concluded a lengthened and able address to the court by saying that Mr. Commissioner Holroyd had erred in his judgment, inasmuch as he was not empowered by the act of parliament to make the order he did.—Mr. Sturgeon, upon the part of a creditor, had an ob jection to the course proposed by Sir Francis Knowles.—ln opposition to the application it was urged that his honour had no power to interfere, and that the matter ought to go before a common law judge.—Mr. Commissioner Goulburu was of opinion that the court had a power of reviewing its own judgment, and named a day for a protecting order.

Is. Only the last Trinity Term Lord Denman had tried a case heard on a mandamus against the justices of Carnarvon, who refused to allow a coroner for a medical witness, but whom, by the decision of his lordship, they would be eonspelled to pay. In fact, according to the act he quoted, they had no discretion in the mattes, and he was of opinion that it was of no consequence which summons a medical man received, for even if he was in a room, and should unexpectedly be called upon to give tvidence, he could substantiate his demand. Plaintiff: My evidence was strictly medial, and if I had not attended when summoned I should have subjected myself to 51. penalty.—Judge : It would be a very bad precedent to confirm the nonpayment of a !medical man summoned as a witness, and great difficulty would by so doing arise in getting such witnesses to attend inquests. This action, instead of being brought in " tort," has been instituted so though a contract existed, through which technical mistake the plaintiff is liable to be non suited ; but he can, of course, recover by obtaining a manda mus, and I, therefore, should advise you, Mr. Mills, to take the case into your own hands.—The defendant agreed to pay the plaintiff, although, at the same time, he felt convinced his Honour was wrong In his construction of the act. and Stager, and eked for his money, which they promised to let him have in a few days, but be never received it. The gloves it appeared were sold to MOOTS Leaf, Barnett, and Co., at a rauctista of 26 per mat. upon their original prim, by Cuissel, and in consequence of something that afterwards transpired these gentlemen it appeared afterwards made • communication to Mews. Routledge and Co., upon the sub poet of the sale. Mr. Grey was here recalled, and said that upon applying to Holiday foe his money he told him that his partner, Gard ner, was at Berwick with $OOl. in his pocket to buy a ship. He subsequently went to • public-house in compasy with some other persona, and he saw Holiday and Cuissel there, and on his asking the former if he knew Caine' he replied that he did not, and Cuissel then went away. When he was gone Holiday said that Cuissel and Gardner were the rogues, and that he was the dupe. Gardner came in shortly afterwards, and he was given into custody. Evidence was then adduced to show that Loup disposed of the greater portion of the second quantity of rope obtained from Mr. Gray, and it appeared that upon one occasion, when he was offered 341. a hundredweight for the rope, he declined to take that sum until be had consulted his prin . cipal, and he afterwards consented to take the sum offered. He stated to the person who purchased it that he did not know who the maker was, but he sold it for a gentle. man who had advanced money upon it, and he made out the invoices in the more of H. Cuistel, who he said was his principal. Kebblewhite the constable was then recalled, and he said that when he served the summons upon the prisoner Loup to attend as • witness, he told him that he knew very little about Cuisiel, and that the sale of the rope was the only transaction he ever had with him, and he added that he knew nothing whatever of Holiday or Gardner. In answer to a question put by Mr. Clarkson, this witneu said that Loup was examined as a witness in the first instance before the Lord Mayor.—The :deposition nude on that occasion by Loup was put in and read. He then rated that on two oc casions he did sell rope for CuMel, and he gave the names of the parties to whom he odd it. This closed the case for the prosecution. Mr. Clarkson first addressed the !jury for the prisoner Loup, and the defence he set op was that there was not the slightest evidence of his having anything to do with the original conspiracy, and that with regard to the sale of the rope he had acted bona fide as the agent of Cuissel, and he bad ne guilty share in the transaction. Mr. Ballantine made • defence of a similar kind for Seeger, and urged that he had unfortunately come into the service of two persons who had conreeed that they were swindlers, and that he had merely acted under their orders and as their mr vent in the share he had taken in the tramaction. Witnesses were called who gave a good character to the prisoners Loup and Seeger. The former, it appeared, was formerly in the service of a highly respectable firm in the Old Jewry,which he left on the death of the principal, when he set up in business on his own account in Cateaton-street, and for some time carried on an extensive business. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.—Before the Recorder. DEYRAIIDDIO Jaweemina.—H. Gardner, T. Holiday, J. Seager, and J. Loup, were indicted, with 11. Cutssel, not in custody, for unlawfully conspiring together to defraud' tradesmen of their property, and in other counts they were charged with obtaining goods by false pretences. Mr. S Benton, a jeweller on Ludgate-hill, said that on the 7th ofJannary the prisoners Gardner and Holiday came to his shop, and Holiday wished to look at a cruet and liqueur frame ;as he had a commission for Hamburg, and they were to be frame, - as to Thehertorestrcet, Islington, to be enclosed with other goods. He selected two articles worth 91. Iss. Holi day gave him a card, on which was inscribed, "Thomas Holiday and Co., commission agents, 6. Pinner's-hall," and witness sent the goods as directed. The neat day Holiday came alone, and said he had another commission for a gold watch and chain ; and he said the gentleman who was with him the day before was a member of one of the wealthiest firms on the Continent, and the watch was for that firm. Holiday showed a card of Sehalkhauser & Co , 38, Moor gate-street, and he said that firm owed him a great deal of money, and if witness would let him have the watch and chain, he would get a bill from them, and pay him the whole amount. Wittiest told him he must first make in ; and, upon his doing so, he was informed Wi!e ii y re :vere all swindlers, and he declined to let Holi day have the watch and chain ; and, when he sent his bill for the other articles to Pinner's Hall and The berton-street. he found they were gone from both places. ..

Some workmen e n repairing the church at the time discovered the rob immediately after it had been perpetrated, and gave the prisoners chase, and finally secured ' them. The prisoner Wood, however, made a desperate re sistance, struck hie pranc er several times with a crowbar or " jemmy" with which he had been armed, and in his flight was seen to throw away a quantity of skeleton keys. A4l three prisoners were committed for ti ial, and the magistrates having refused to accept bail for them, the friends of Wood,, who it is said can command large ruse of money, at once applied to a judge in chambers, and got him bailed out. This ohjoot accomplished, he did not pay the slightest atten tion to the matter, and never appeared to take his trial.— Sergeant Kennedy, stationed at Enema, produced a certifi cate of a true bill of indictment having been found against the prisoner, Fletcher, and Newport, at both the sessioas and assizes, for the offence, and said the prisoner had never made his appearance to take his trial, nor were the magistrates aware who his bail were, as it had been taken in London, at the judge's chambers. Kennedy further stated that he had been requested by the solicitors who had been engaged for the prosecution to inform his worship that it was not the wish of the perish authorities to have anything further to do in the business ; but, if his worship should he of opinion that the ends of justice required it, ho woul I of course commit him for trial.—Mr. Elliott observed that the law left only one course open to him, and that was to commit the pri soner for trial on the certificate produced.—The prisoner was admitted to bail. WANDBWORTH.—THE MtCHNOND RAILWAY.—Mr. J. Bird and Mr. J. Young, the surveyors of the highway for the parith of Putney, called the magistrate's attention to an evil existing in connexion with the Richmond Railway, which, if not remedied, might some day be attended with dangerous consequences to the public. The surveyors first read the following extract of a letter sent by them to the secretary of the South Western Railway, on the 17th of July : Dyers lane is a lane at the western extremity of Putney, leading front the Upper Richmond-reed to Putney lower•common, emcee which lane the railway rues en level Freund, and although your own gates are so hung as to shut by their own weight, he., the security afforded by them is not aufßriest to justify the pariah in remaining silent under the present arrangement. The ponsibdity of accident is fully borne out he facts. A short time since Mr. Young, whore sig nature is attached to this letter, and Mr. Collis, is market gardener resident near the spot, drove off the railroad, between twelve and one o'clock In the day, some pin which bad strayed on the line, a few minutes only beton, the jading of a train ; and on another occasion some horses strayed during the nheht from off the common on to the line, and were found at five o'clock the following morning near Wandsworth. The surveyors proceeded to state that this communication was answered a day or two subsequently, and early in August the resident engineer waited on tnem. They pointed out to Mr. Martin the urgent necessity there was tor haying a man to watch this gate, and so obviate the possibility of an acci dent. That gentleman was evidently convinced of the pro r riety of such a step being taken, ana said he would look out a proper piece of ground to build a house upon. Since that time, however, no notice had been taken.—Mr. Paynter, after referring to the Bth of Victoria, e 47, under which the surveyors presumed they could proceed against the company, said the most politic course would be to put themselves communication with the railway commissioners, and they might state that be had advised that course.—The surveyors said they should certainly adopt the magistrate's suggestion, and withdrew.

WEDNISDLT The representations made in parliament last night by the Chancellor of tke Exchequer, as regards the improved state of the country, were perused in the journals this morning with mach satisfaction in the City, and the effect has been an advance of per per cent. in the value of the public securities. The reference made by the right hon. gentleman to the position of the Bank of England was particularly encouraging, and, for a week or two at least, the important revela tions of Sir Charles will have superseded the interest of the returns that may appear in the Gazette. The fact that the institution has so large an amount of notes in the banking department had not been at all calculated upon. It appears that it is now 5,800,000 L, and there can be little doubt, in consequence, that we shall hear forthwith of a further diminution of the minimum of interest and discount to di or even 8 per cent. per annum. Consols, which were yesterday 86 to for their:count, opened this morning at 86:,, from whisk Mesa ti 864. At the close of the day's at 86{ to 6 for mosey, asd 86! to 1 for seeoust. The Brehm / see Bel meeket has also been better, which indicates a more am meta or money as a present reality, or as among the improve ments in prospect, all being based, of course, on the influence and example of the Bank. In the foreign market there was little actual bald nees, but prices are disposed to assume a somewhat More favourable range in common with those of the domestic securities. Mexican Bonds to 17. Portuguese, 214 ; Five per Cent. Spazesh, 174 to 2 ; Three per Cent. ditto, 294. Two-and-a-lialf per Cent. Dutch, 83 1 . Equador, 2i to New Grenada, 18, ex div. ; the Deferred Debt, 31. There was very little beyond the speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to engage attention. It was said that some fresh hitch bad occurred in the arrangement of the affairs of the large house which has required the assistance of the Bank. Some of the parties who have attached their names to the guarantee list are understood to have been not pito content with the way: in which the conditions entered into on the other side were complied with. It has been stated, indeed, that certain names appended to it in the first instance had been withdrawn, and that the result was once more in great doubt.
