W -- Et3T INDIA MAIL. s ou -nut/prom, SATURDAY, MARCH 20, SEVEN P.H. _The Royal Mail Company's steamer Forth, Capt. Chapman, bas arrived. Her dates are : Jamaica, Feb 23 ; Demerara, 18 ; Trinidad, 20 ; Barbadoes, . St. Thomas, March 1 ; Fayal, 14. 24; Granada, 26: The Forth has brought the following passengers : Mrs. Lore, Hon. Justice and Mrs. Roberts and child, late lieut. 2nd West India Archdeacon Pope, Mr. Hai, Reg Rev. Mr. Burrows, lady, end three children, Mr. fialtles ; toile, lir. Blackwell, Mr. Raikee, and Captaio Dodd, from 11111aiCe; Mr. Estridge, from Forts Rico ; Men Estridge and baby, and Mr. Aldecoa, from St. Thomas's; General Middlemen, lady, five daughter,. and two seruab Mr, cuT i agut , c ie tain Bare, Captain Baker, Captai Irenionger, Ma Captain n Wel- Clarke, Capron Mailmen, late), and IL Reedy. from Barbadoes: Mr. Parke, fotell Tobago; Mr. M'latosh, from Demerara; Mr. Davies, front Trieidid i Ceptais Fitsmayer, and Major Caney, nom Grenada; Lieut. Grattan, from St. Vincent; Mr. and Mrs. Martin, two children, and servant, and Lieut. Anderson, g o . Antigua; Viscoeste de &enrage, and Mr. Le Metre, from Guadeloupe; a distressed British subject, from FayaL The Forth left England Jan. 18, and has, conse quently, only been two months out. An accident to the machinery has occasioned her being sent home out of her torn. She encountered a heavy squall on her return on the 15th inst., in which the starboard quarter of her foreyard was carried away. The Royal Mail Company's inter-colonial steamer Eagle was nearly lost on the Grampus Reef, off Granada, on Feb. 21. The particulars of this die ader are thus narrated by one of the passengers : e Ws left Trinidad on the 20th, at 6 p.m., end the follow morning, at half peat 4, we were stormed by . the vessel Idat At the same time a voice from deck cried, ' The skip is on the rocks, let every soul come up.' The sum mits was quickly obeyed. The straining of the ship against the reef, over which the sea was breaking heavily, bespoke auger. She continued to strike violently, and every means that sesauship, assisted by steam, could devise, were em ployed to get her off, without avail. The dead lights were wan is. The boats were ordered to be lowered, and pretingabc., thrown overboard. One boat was instantly dashed Is meta. After some time, however, the steamer did off the edge of the reef, the paldle-wheels were put in motion, end, tanks to a merciful providence, the engine kept the vessel bee, and we were weed from shipwreck and arrived safe at Granada. I afterward, saw the Eagle on the slip at St. Thomas's • she is seriously dammed, several timbers broken, mad bilge Planking destroyed ; the engine-frame is broken, and tem told the boilers are some inches out of their place. The repairs will cost the company a large sum, and doubts are entertained whether they can be thoroughly effected in the West Indies. It is to be hoped that authentic informa tion of the state of the Eagle, and the number of her boats, may be published." At Granada a letter was addressed to Mr. Stoke, in command of the Eagle, be the Archdeacon of Trini. dad ; the Rev. J. H. Hamilton, Rector of St. David's and St. Patrick's, Tobago ; the Rev. W. Bannister, Wesleyan minister ; Major Calley, of the 19th Regt.; Captain J. W. Fitzmaurtce, of the Royal Engineers, and other passengers, expressing their satisfaction with his conduct in the hour of danger. This, how- ever, leaves untouched the question how he came to run the vessel on the reef. The Reindeer was at Granada on the 21st of February; the Avon, Eagle, and Larne, were at St. Thomas on the Ist of March ; on the 13th the Forth exchanged signals with the Indian Chief. JAMAICA.—The House of Assembly met pursuant to adjournment on the 16th of February. An address to the new governor was voted. Next day the house met to receive his Exoellencre reply,. and then adjourned till the 18th with out taking up any business of general interest. From that time till the mail was despatched it was found impassible to collect a sufficient number of members to form a house. The council met on the mme day as the assembly, and also voted an address to the governor. It was resolved on the motion of the Chief Justice that the bill for regulating the salaries of public officers (sent up by the assembly) should be " taken off the table" on the 22nd of Feb., when council were to be heard at the bar in support of the petitions of Justices Macdougall and Stephenson against the bill. In conformity with this resolution, Mears. Edward. and Middleton were heard against the bill on that day. Sundry petitions in favour of the bill were then presented ; and the Attorney-General, on the part of a committee appointed to inspect the journal, of the House of Assembly, laid an ex tract from its minutes on the table. After tnese prelimina ries, the Hoo. John Salmon moved that the bill be read a second time that day six months; the Hon. Alexander Brews seconded the motion, and the Chief Justice spike in support of it. The diseusaion was then adjourned till next day. The opponents of the bill admitted that the colony was "hard pressed," and expensed a desire to support any measure for relief not involving a breach of public faith. The Coulee Chensher presented a most animated scene on the occesica. All the members of assembly present in Spraiek Town ware in attendance, several chairmen of Quetta Itieseheme, the Judges, the Inepector-General, Island iorohsepar, and ether officers whose salaries would be AMU ley the bill. No doubt was entertained of its being figura eat by the Council: but there was great un smaisay rii le what course the House of Assembly would puma, "The minority " says the Despatch, which has ably aad eafilachingly adimeatied the bill, "calculate upon a Wing of red such as amessioa to their number as will prevent aey laterruption it the laminar of the country ; but the supporters of the maser, mai determined to fight the battle."

It mom to be a favourite argu ment against the government marine, that ;(00 tt= Mr. Hint= stated at the Hall of Comatose) 88 (vide Mr. Ainslie's speech) teachers win be distributed through the country, to exert their ingsenes at dew tions in corrupting voters. It MOMS OWNS. that no opposition speaker explains that this wolf, would be dis tributed over the whole country ; therein% far eorreptiew, would be perfectly inert. JW&e, they nista be disqu fied (as the Customs' officers are). Tt alms te me, that the dissenters generally are afraid of tompetitice. Surely they need not begrudge any other labourer a place In the field— there is plenty of room ; and, as for their talk about being made slaves, are their principles so dda tend aamedy, that they are afraid to trust thenteelves ekes:aids of ahmen ?

Is consevence of the agitation com menced by • section of the Dissenters against the government plan for promoting the extension and im provement of education, it was thought right that those who approved of it should have an opportunity of expressing their opinions also.

IXTTER CARRIERS.—Sir,—At the recent Exeter makes I find William Roger., a letter-carrier, found guilty of stealing a latter containing two half-crowns. His salary was 14s. per week. Sentence, to be transported for seven years. My first suggestion is respectfully addressed to the authorities of the Post-office : Would it not be well to allow man engaged in such a responsible duty as the delivery of letters a salary sufficient to protect them from the tempta tions of poverty ? To the public I would say : If possible employ money orders, and never send coin or bank notes in letters. I know the cue of a letter-carrier (a man with • large family), who met me with 10 soveAigns in his hand which had escaped from a letter. A determined, honest man, as he was, meld moist the temptation of 100 sovereigns slipping into his hand • but, as far as is possible, such temptations should he removed. —A LETTEE-CAKIIIII. RELIEF OF hum Dirritms.—Amongst the many projects which have been started for relieving the present distress of the Irish poor, we have heard of none so judicious as a plan adopted by a clergyman of the established church, the Rev. George Robert Oildea, rector of Newport, in the county of Mayo. We have now before 111 two letters from this truly Chri pastor, to a gentleman in this town, who, having head privately of his exertions for the relief of his wit/dews, wrote to him for information on the ab ject.

THE SCE-SORTERS AND THE " POST-OFFICE MBEcTosv."—Sir,—ln the communications which have been sent to you coneermkg the " Post-offios Directory," arts very heavy grievance does not seem to have come render your notice. I allude to the great amount of labour imposed upon the sub-sorters, on account of the work. The infor mation, as you are aware, is exclusively collected by the lerer carriers, but the business of compilation is exclusively performed by the sub-eorters. Of them officers there is a lit at page 66 of the " Directory." They are 169 in num ber, and are obliged to take their turn at the work, 28 each day, while it is being printed ; and when published, we have to assist in its distribution. It is then we may be seen about the city carrying bags each, with thirty or torty of these overgrown books. This very year I have, not far from the Bank of England, delivered upwards of a hundred copies, for which Mr. Kelly his received more than 1201. And what, Mr. Editor, do you think was the wretched sum paid me for my labour ? Just one solitary half-crown ! Surely, sir, it is time that some change was made to re lieve us from labour so harassing, for which we receive inch trilling benefit, and which it would not be sate to refuse to do.—A SUB-SORTER. A NEW PUBLIC OFFICER.—The New York Sun enumerates among the train who did honour to the dwarf Stratton (otherwise General Tom Thumb) on his departure from Liverpool for New York, the name of a gentleman who is described as "Chief Superintendent of the Principal Public Exhibitions and Amusements in Great Britain." AN ELIGIBLE SITE FOR THE WELLINGTON STATUE. —A correspondent signing " J. H.," proposes the grounds of the Duke of York's school, in the King's-road, Chelsea, as a refuge for the destitute Wellington statue. MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF A FEMALE.— A widow named Ann Penn left Glasgow on Wednesday, the 24th of February, by the Viceroy, for Liverpool, with the intention of proceeding to London by the train, and has not since been heard of, although the vessel arrived Rarely in due course. Her friends in London have made inquiries respect ing her of the master of the vessel, and he, as also some of the passengers, say that it would be impossible for her to have fallen overboard without being observed. The police of Liverpool and London have received information of the mysterious circumstance, but, up to this time, have obtained no satisfactory intelligence. Mrs. Penn is between 60 and 70 yearn of age, and wan dressed iB black gown and bonnet, and plaid shawl. FIRE.—On Saturday morning, about six o'clock, the servant girl of a medical gentleman named Ferrer, re siding at No. 28, Guildford-street. Russell-square, discovered smoke issuing from the surgery. Having alarmed her master and family she opened the street door to call in assistance. which caused the flames to spread to the drawing and other rooms. Two engines from Farringdon-street and Holborn, as well as others, were promptly on the spot, and working on the flames ; but before the firemen terminated their labours, valuable property to the amount of 2,0001. was destroyed. ACCIDENTS IN THE ROYAL ARSENAL.—Considerable alarm has prevailed in the Royal Arsenal for the safety of the convict hulks Allstate and Unite, in consequence of the unusual number of guns that have burst during proof. During the proofs of last week one of the guns, a 32-pounder, burst, and a fragment of the metal fell in the yard of the convict hulk, close to the brow that joins the Justitia to the shore, and within about eight yards of the vessel Welt. An other fragment went over the Juatitia, and fell in the river between that ship and the Unite hospital ship. These drag meats were from half a cwt. to four or five cwt., and were they to alight on the convict hulk during the time the pri soners are at meals, the loss of life might be frightful. It has been deemed advisable during the close of the past week to keep the prisoners back from the hulks till the proofs are finished, so as to avoid all chances of danger. SCOTLAND. EDINBURGH, Maacx 19. The Edinburgh Advertiser, which is the principal organ of the Established Church, declares itself in to day's number, as being in favour of the government scheme of education. The Witness and Scottish Guardian, the organs of the Free Church, are "hang ing in the wind;" but there is little fear of their coming fairly round in due time. The voluntary dis senters have been passive for some weeks. Peace continues to prevail in the northern districts, a result mainly attributable to the presence of the war steamer Birkenhead. The trial of the principal rioters before the High Court of Judiciary, to take place in a few days, will also operate as a salutary warning to the misguided people who have so long disturbed the peace of the country. Exportation to foreign countries is increasing in Leith. A second vessel has been chartered with wheat for Antwerp, and another, which arrived in the Roods with 1,800 quarters of wheat from Pome rania, was turned back for Belgium without being allowed to land. Many parties, too, who entered into winter contracts for the shi ent of grain at the first open water to Leith, have n giving orders to their foreign correspondents to re-sell their pur chases in France, Holland, and Belgium, which his been done to some extent, and to good account. Yesterday a further descent of the sword of jus tice took place on the street robbers, five being transported for ten, and two for fifteen years. the coroner, and a jury returned a verdict of manslaughter ' against the constable, who was committed for trial.

SICKNESS AND MORTALITY IN LIVERPOOL—MO peat has been the mortality in the neighbourhood of St. Arm's. street, that one night last week no leas than eighteen " wakes " of dead bodies took place between Crosbie-street and Lower Parliament-street. The medical officers of the North Dispeusery apprehend that the past and present state of the poor population will result in producing a very severe epidemic of typhus fever, in the warm months of Jane, July, and August. NUSIER*UB STREET ROBBERIES IN LIVERPOOL.—On Monday night, a letter-carrier, named Begs, had his hat and handkerehief stolen from his head, when pawing along Whitechapel. On Tuesday night, a man named John Return was knocked down in Byrom-sheet, by five men, and robbed of his watch. Same night a man was knocked down by three men In Great Homer-street, tad robbed of hie watch. Same night Mr. Callan was knocked down in osipenter's.row and robbed of his watch. And same night a man named M'Cartin was stopped by three men in White chapel, and robbed of his watch. On Wednesday night a gentleman named Clarke was knocked down by three men in Great Howard-street, and robbed of his watch. FURTHER RISSIOILTIONS TN DURHAM CAMEDRAL.— During the last few days the inappropriate wooden screen which *operated the nave from the choir, and which was placed there by Prior Wessington, betweeu the years 1416 and 1445, together with the greet organ immediately above it, has been removed. The, organ is to be placed on the north aide of the choir, immediately opposite to the bishop's throne, where it will remain permanently if the situation on trial proves suitable. The end stalls will then be thrown back, so as to make more room in the choir—a change long wanted—and a temporary fron'railing will be run across to separate the choir from the nave, which railing will be re placed by a permanent screen, when it shall have been deter mined what description would be most appropriate. A low atone gothic screen contemplated. The visitor, on entering the cathedral, will now be struck with the uninterrupted and magnificent view which he obtains of the interior from wed to east. _ _ . Toe Pace or LAND —A piece of freehold garden land, situated in Broad-street, Ely, containing one acre twenty our perches (with a road set out 500 feet long by 22 feet wide, retained by the venders), was told, in 41 lota, by pub lic auction, on Thursday se'nnight, and realised no less • sum than 1,1681. An adjoining property, containing only • smaU lime-kiln, an ordinary tenement, and a few feet of ground, sold recently for tha sum of four hundred guineas. On the same evening that the above sale took place, some copyhold tenements at Ely were offered fur sale, by the same auctioneer, but net a single bid was made. ELECTION FOR EEDPORDIIRIRE.—The Bedford .Verenry says, " The short representative tenure a member of this parliament con hold since the lamented death of Mr. Astell, renders a seat in the Rouse of Commons of little political value, therefore no opposition can be expected to the only candidate who bu addressed the electors of Bedfordshire for their suffrages, Lord Charles James Fox Russell, a half brother of the Premier and of the Duke of Bedford. His lordship was an advocate of a sliding scale of duty, in oppo sition to a fixed duty on imported corn, and will no doubt be palatable to the country party, who will have a Bedford election in old style, on purity prixciples. The Cambridge In dependent Press states that the mention of the names of Lord Burleigh and Lord Cranbourne was merely • feeler put for ward by interested parties. The Bedford Times says, "It had been arranged by the Whig party, that in the event of their request to Lord Charles Russell being unsuccessful, they would invite Mr. Hastings Russell. The day of election is fised for Tuesday, the 30th instant." ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO BURN SOHAIL—No place in the kingdom has suffered so much from incendiariem as this un fortunate place. The upper part of the town has been nearly consumed by previous conflagrations ' and although paid watchers have been on the alert day and night, fires have broken out in the heart of the neighbourhood in which they were on duty. Sufficient proofs have existed to show that the damage was wilfully done, but although a number of persons have been committed on suspicion none have been convicted. In the present instance, the old cry of " Fire" aroused the townspeople between three and four o'clock on Wednesday morning, when the premises of Mr. Cooper, plumber, Pratt-street, nod about the centre of the town, were discovered to be in flames. The recent brisk winds, I coupled with the film weather, having well dried the thatched roof of the building, the destructive ele ment extended with formidable fury, and in a very brief period the entire of Mr. Cooper's property was in one general blaze. Immediately at the rear, were a number of farming premises, comprising four large barns, stables, and other out-buildings; and the most vigorous exertions were made by the terrified inhabitants to check the fire before it com municated to that mass of building!. Unfortunately, how ever, owing to the trade stock of Mr. Cooper's being of an inflammable description, the flames raged so violently, that before they could in the slightest degree be subdued, the barns and stables ignited, as also a range of dwellings which adjoined. Again, aided by the thatched roofs, the fire ran along with rapidity, and great were the fears lest it should prove of greater extent than others that had previously visited the town. The engines, however, were got to play in a very effectual manner, and by 8 o'clock the conflagra tion was subdued. In addition to Mr. Cooper's premises being destroyed, as also the several barns and outbuildings, there are no less than seven families burnt out. Their lose is estimated at between 2,0001. and 3,0001. This is the third attempt that has been made to fire the same premises. A woman, named Sarah Munsen, has been apprehended on suspicion of having fired them. She is the mother of • prisoner in Cambridge gaol, who n charged with setting fire to Mr. Ower's house, in the game town, in January last. RRPRESENTATIOX or me WIORT.—It to stated to be the wish of the Hon. A. A'Court Holmes to retire from the representation of the island. T. W. Fleming, Esq., of Binstead, has been solicited to allow himself to be put in nomination on the conservative interest. The lion. Dudley Pelham has been talked of as likely to oppose Mr. Fleming. WILTSHIRE. . AT AN ADJOVIINICD PUBLIC iitERTING of the workmen employed by the Great Western Railway Company at New Swindon, to consider how best to aid the efforts making to relieve the extreme distrea in Ireland, it was unanimously resolved : " That, whilst we agree to contribute a second time to aid in relieving the distress in Ireland, we feel bound, in justice to the working classes of Great Bri tain (who will yet have to sustain seven eighths of the 8,000,0001. now contracted for distress in Ireland), mist re spectfully toed' upon government and the legislature to take prompt and'eifective steps to give the poor of Ireland a right to support from the land of Ireland and to remove that long-continoed oceleeiastical and political oppression, the direct (if not the immediate) cause of the present destitution in that country." DOVER REFVOI HARROW). —We (Dover CAromivie) at length congratulate our readers that the great national un dertaking, the formation of a harbour of refuge at Dever, is no longer problematical. :The greatest probability ssisb that the present year will see the works commenced. - - ROYAL ACADEMY Or MCSIC.—The first sr the series of concerts annually given by this institution teak place at the Hanover-square-rooms on Saturday isondog. In cottsequenee of the death of Sir William Curtis, wise woe • member of the committee of dinettes, the performers were in mourning, and the eoecert Gassman& with Han ders beautiful anthem, "When the ow board Ma," the solos of which were exceedingly well nog by KM Rana ford, Miss Salmon, Mr. Herbert, sad Mr. Wetherbee. The vocal part of the concert condoled entirely of eased music, among which a manuscript chorus, part of a mass, composed by Mr. Henry Wylde, an emaciate of the academy, is entitled to especial none.. It exhibited considerable grandeur of con ception, flowing melody in the vocal parts, breadth and clearness of harmony, and many beautiful orchestral effects. It indicated, in short, native genius as well es profitable Rudy. A sacred cantata, by Weber, which was new to us, occupied nearly all the first put of the concert. It wu strongly marked with the peculiarities of his style, and con tained many pennies of peat beauty and ppoower. But it wee destitute of the grave and devout ahaeuds width belongs to sacred mole. It wee too bold smi kehearns Weber forgot (as ell the modern Catholle coopesers have done), that even the language of joy sad meta tie°, when addressed to the Deity, ought to be subdued and tempered I:gt awe and 1111•1111011. One of the choruses, in particular, would have mods a brio liantfmale toe comic opera. The principal soprano put in this cantata was sung by Miss Stewart, who premier to be come one of our meet accomplished roadies. Het mks is a real soprano, of singular purity and equality of tone : she Mugs beautifully in tune, and with excellent taste and ce ssation. The only first appearances were those of two young instrumentalists, Mr. A. Simmons end Mr. Mew. The brow, who seems a boy Mattes% or sixteen, pissed fisher's violin " Concerto Dramatique," a pace of enormous diffi culty, in which he exhibited a quality of tone, justness of intonation, and command of the bow and fingerboard, quite surprising in so young a performer. Mr. Mew also acquitted himself admirably in Weber's brillia, t and arduous piano forte " Concert stuck ;" and both pt dormers were received with the warm applause which they deserved. %nit BTflittil. HATAIARKES.—A trifle, produced here on Saturday night, under the title of " The Light Troop of St. James's," met with indifferent mans. It appears to have been mainly written (or Mr. Buckstone, for whom the author had devised a character for which he deserves some credit. As a courtier of the time of Queen Anne—with a sword of office, carried with much inconvenience, a Tompion watch, which is quite an encumbrance, a court suit, embroidered like a sheriff's footman's, and a wig double the size of any that Kneter ever put on COMPS —Buckstone's immense dignity and great official importance may be easily conceived. Fancying himself the favourite of his Kivereign, the pivot of the court intrigues, and the admiration of all the maids of honour, he receives bouquets, billets-dour, and despatches, as the most ordinary acknowledgmects, mixes himself up with innumerable plots which he does not understand, and returns every soft glance with the most impertinent effrontery. The time comes, ho sever, when his eyes are to be opened, and his indignation to be rouged, by the mortify ing revelation that he is merely a tool of the Duchess of Marlborough's faction, with such a place as superintendent of the kitchen and taster of viands for the royal table ea only a Soyer could properly appreciate. The purpose of all this isles, easily described than the circumstance itself. The farce, indeed, was, in all but this, of the most flimsy and trifling description. Buckstone's peculiar talent might have been brought out to the best effect, had there been any setting to the picture; but the plot was almost meaningless, and the dialogue pointless and insipid. The maids of honour, in whose apartment the scene is laid, constitute "The Light Troop of St. Jamie's," a sobriquet which they have obtained by their constant skirmishes with the adherents of Mrs. Mar sham ; but, if we may except a costume which Mrs. Seymour had selected, and looked charmingly in, having 'dressed it after an old print of Queen Anne—there was as little indivi duality is this light troop as in any other troop, light or heavy, oa any parade whatsoever. Mrs. Clifford was" the mother of the maids"—a sort of Mrs. General Marlborough, with no sions of discipline and training gleaned from the camp of the great duke, and better fitted for the forces under his than under her command. The whole weight of the piece, (perhaps we should say its dead weight) rested on Mr. Buck stone, who brought "the light troops" through an enemy's fire without much loss, though we may reasonably doubt if they will ever succeed in carrying the town by storm. Mite. BUTLER, A MANAGER—The Olmerrer states it to be more than probable that Mrs. Butler (late Miss F. Kemble, for it is necessary to make the distinction, as there is another Mrs. Butler, who has advertised readings at Crosby Hall), will ere long become lessee of one of our metropoli•an theatres ; the present tenant of the house being willing to dispose of his interest in it at only a mode rate profit, namely, 1,0001. a year beyond the comparatively low rent he now pays.

A commodious site, in the immediate neigh bourhood of the new church, has been 'Fives by the rectors of Merthyr end Dowlais, who have obtained the consent of the bishop and patron to alienate a portion of the glebe for this purpose. The Marquis of Bute, the patron of the living, immediately on being informed of the design, announced his intention of subscribing 1001. to the building fund, and 101. a year towards the subsequent maintenance of the schools, in addition to the very liberal support which his lordship already gives to those now established. The Diocesan Edu cational Society has also voted 301. for the same !purpose. The design is to build school-rooms for between 300 and 400 children, with a suitable residence for a master sad mistress.

PtliraY.L73la LTI:1;1101ED WITHOTT Coare.—APPEAL POR CO/M.—Mr. Anderdon and Mr. J. Smith moved to vary an order of the Vice-Chancellor of England, by which hie Honour dismissed the plaintiff's bill, but made no order as to the costs, and the coniequense, there fore, was, that the defendant, who was the successful party, was left to pay all the coats to which he had been put by a bill, which, as it turned out, had born improperly fi led against him. The appeal wee confined to the mere natter of °pstg. The Caen, as far as the learned counsel disclosed them, were these In 1843, Mrs. Chappell, as personal ie wwiestative of her late husband, a publisher of music, filed her bill against Mr. Purday, another publisher, alleging that her late husband had purchased the copyright in some music 1 (the opera of "Fro Diavolo"), that he was sole rightful owner thereof in this country, and that the defendant pirated, and unlawfully published and sold the same. The bill prayed an injunction, or that the defendant might be ordered to keep an account of all xuelt monies ea he should receive from the sale of his publics ten, until the plaintiff should establish her right ey an action at law. The Vice-Chancellor made the usual order, retaining the bill for a year, with leave to the plaintiff to bring her action ; but, unless such action thould be brought within the year, that the hill be dismissed with costs. The action was brought and tried, in 1843, in the Court of Exchequer, and the plaintiff failed to establish her ight. The cause coming on before the Vice-Chancellor, at further direction., in 1845, his Honour made the order be fore mentioned, simply diemissing the bill. The teamed counsel contended that the rule of this court, founded oa I principle and authority, and is analogy with the invariatde rule at common law, was, that the successful party was en titled to costs. The defendant here was put to large ex pease in collecting evidence abroad for his defence against a claim which was found to be groundless ; he was, therefore, entitled to have his coots repaid by the plaintiff. At common law that is invariably the practice, and, as equity follows the law, the same rule prevails in this court. lint it is said that in equity the costa are in the discretion of the judge, and that there is no appeal against the exercise of this discretion. Certainly, the costs in equity are in the discretion of the judge, but that is not a capricious discretion, but a discretion which, as his lordship well observed, in the case of " Millington a. Fox" (3 Mylne and Craig, p. 353), "ought tobe exercised according topnneiple," adding that, "as a general rule, the cuts should be made to follow the result." And what hin lordship said in the case of " Sheehy T. Muskerry" (7 Clark and Finnelly, p. 34), respecting the • discretiona ry power of a judge over enrolments of decrees--namely, " that such discretion ought to be regulated by precedent and authority," was perfectly I applicable to the present case. They cited to the same effect the late case of " Knight v. the - Marquis of Waterford," and also " Meyriek v. Wishaw" (4 Maddock), " Bally ti. Taylor" (1 Russell and Mylne), " Bacon it. Jones" (I Beavan), and other cases, to show that when a party filed a bill for relief, as ancillary to his legal right, or for exeunt*, or injunctions, on the ground of Fancy, and in order to be entitled to these he had to establish his title by an action at law, if he failed in such action his bill was dismissed with coins, as of course. That being the general rule established by the most eminent judges of this court, from the decision of Lord Macclesfield in " Peachey e. the Duke of Somerset" (1 Chancery Cures), was it to be held as an inveterate, indispensable rule, that if a judge of an inferior court, in the exercise of his discretion, departed from it, no other court had power to review that exercise of discretion ? But it was distinctly decided by Lord Hardwick', in " Owen o. Griffiths" (Aubler, 520, and by Lord Lyndhurst, in " Burkett v. Spray" (1 Russell and Mylne), and in other cases mentioned. the reports of these two, that an appeal would lie in respect of costa : and his lordship (the Lord Chan cellor) declared, in "Taylor r. Southgate," and " Eyre o. Marsden" (4 Mylne end Craig), that though the general rule was not to lipped wind costs, yet they were proper matter of appeal and review by a superior court, and in those two eases his lordship stated several pro positions as exceptions to the general rule, any one of which was sufficient to support the present application.— Mr. Reit and Mr. Chandless contra, supported the Viee- Chancellor's order, upon the ground of the vexatious proceed ings to which the defendant had iecoune in his defense to the action at law. They could not state the facts, because the petition of appeal avoided any notice of them, and to go into them would be a rehearing of the cause, but they sup posed a case in which a defendant raised all sorts of tec hnical difficulties by his various pleas of law and facto., whereby the first right of a plaintiff was defeated. At law, there was to question that even in such a case the costs followed the result, and were given to the successful party, but when a judge in equity, upon the hearing for further directions, came to review the conduct of the parties, was he not to exercise his equitable power over the costs in his own court ? This court would &mum that the court below exercised its best discretion. The law allowed this court to review all the acts of the court below, and ace whether even its discretionary power was properly exercised. The question here was, whether a hill may nut be filed under such circumstance. as that the court may in the proper exercise of its discretionary power dismiss the bill without costa ? To take a proper view of the order of the court below in this matter it would be necessary to have, in feet, a re hearing of the case. It would appear by the tuts, if they were stated, that the litigation of this defendant was carried on in the most vexatious manner. His not the court here a right to look at the circumstances, and, although the party succeeded in the main question at issue in his action,s r l had not the court power to deprive him of outs in equity ? They referred to the numerous cases cited on the other aide, and distinguished them from the present case, end insisted that they were not applicable to it. Their argument was not that the practice as to coats was so inveterate that the court mould not entertain an appeal on it, but that in all outs there may be circumstances in which a court of equity would exercise a discretion, which, though at variance with the general rule, may he well justified by the conduct of parties, and they repeated that such were the facts in the present case that if the judge had any discretionary power our the costs, he was bound to exercise it. It it were to be held that the hands of the judge were tied up by the rule of guars, then a party may pursue any . course of litigation, however vexatious ; and to follow up in this court the rule which certainly existed in the courts of law would be giving encouragement to the meet vexations conduct. The further argument was put og to next Friday. Before the i'lee•Chaoreellor of &reload. TAWNET V.
