MORI. Bethell, Heathfield, and Webster were heard for the defendants in this case, which was a motion to restrain them from erecting their qas-works at Kensal-groen, near the locality which the plaintiff had chosen for the erection of a costly mansion.

TAYLOR.—SPECIFIC FIRFORILANCE.— The arguments were concluded in this case, which was con ducted by Mr. Kenyon Parker and Mr. Montague for the WI• aand by Mr. Romilly en force r IVillcock for the t. The bill was Sled to the specific perfor ations of an agreement by the defendant to procure a build /Bs lease to be granted to the plaintiff. By the terms of the contract the plaintiff was to erect upon the premises in tended to be demised a house, the materials, fastenings, and fixtures of which were to be equal in quality to those of the neighbouring houses, and of a kind to satisfy the defendant. The house was to be built and covered in by Michaelmas, 1844, at any time after which the lease was to be granted. A house had been accordingly built and covered in within the time specified ; but the defendant being dims t o with the building which had been erected, had refused to perform his pxrt of the contract. The esidenee as to the quality of the building which had been erected being conflicting, His Honour directed two issues to be taken to the Court of Queen's Bench ; one, to try whether, at the time the bill was filed, the plaintiff had built and covered in the house in question in the manner provided by the agreement ; and the other, to try the question whether before or at the time of filing gran ill the plaintiff bad become entitled to have a lean ed according to the intent and meaning of the _ _ agreennent. CARL/6LS v. ELLIOTT.— INJUNCTION. — In this suit, which was instituted by the Commissioners for Charities at Bristol, an injunction till the hearing had been obtained, re straining the defendant from getting stone from a part of the charity property cai7ed the Jews' Churchyard. Mr. Romilly, 011 behalf of the plaintiffs, now asked for a decree, making the injunction pernousai. The application was made with the consent of the ddisitlanT, upon the terms that each party should pay his own casts, And that the plaintiffs should accept the sum of 401., which the defendant had already paid to them, in full discharge of .41 demands against him.—llls Honour made the decree; the . l alement ,of the bill beiug, to save expense, entered as nissions by the defendant. Before Vice Chancellor Knight Brace. KERSHAW V. CLEGO.—LtEN or SoLicnortge —The bill was tiled by legatees for the administration of the estate of Edward Clegg, deceased. The defendant, Mrs. Cle c lft , was the testator's widow, and the surviving executrix' and trustee under his will. An application was now Cu"' that Mrs. Clegg might be ordered to produce and deliver uP the deeds relating to the testator's estate, in which widow took an interest. It was stated that Mrs. Clegg hart left them in the hands of her solicitor, but she nevertheless claimed her costs as execatrix. His Honour : As the deeds are in the bands of this lady's solicitor, an order for her to deliver them up would is effect be an order to her to pay her solicitor's bill of costs. Is it necessary to do that at present ?—Mr. Bacon, for the plain tiffs: The solicitor can have no lien upon them beyond the widow's interest. It was then stated that the widow being very poor, had left the deeds with her. solicitor, as a security for the costs of this suit. His Honour: If that be so, I must inquire into the matter. —Mr. Russell and Mr. Melina, for the defendant, then said that it did not appear that the defendant had pledged the deeds for the purpose of this suit. They admitted, however, that it appeared from the proceedings that the defendant had gone to Messrs. Elliot and Stott, who were in partnership at Rochdale, and had advised with them as to this suit. I hat the 60011 afterwards left with them the deeds in question, and 'that, afterwards Elliot, as her solicitor (Stott not being a solicitor), acted for her in putting in her answer. His Honour said, that, under these circumstances, he must reserve the question whether, and upon whet terms, this lady was to be allowed any costs. GEARS V. NORTON.—Coors OP AN INJUNCTION SLIT.— The plaintiffs, Messrs. Geary and Spitzer, are manufacturers at Norwich, and proprietors of a shawl (which has been regis tered pursuant to an Act of Parliament of 5 and called the Royal Mechlin shawl. These shawls the plaintiff sold exclusively to Everington, Ellis and Co., and some other tradesmen in Londou. The defindants, Norton and Hisaneford, are mercers and dealers at Huddersfield. In April, 1845, the defendant, Norton, celled on a person named Scott, a manufacturer at Leicester, when Scott showed him a woollen shawl, which he said one of his workmen had pur chased at Leicester. Norton admired the pattern, and asked Scott whether he might take it away with him for a few days which was consented to. Scott soon afterwards re ceived it back, with an order from Norton to make several shawls of the same pattern. Norton, a few days afterwards, called again himself, when he stated to Scott that he had heard that it was a registered shawl, and made by some house at Norwich. Scott replied that the information was correct. Norton then said, that he did not care about the , shawl being registered. He had had an order for 100 shawLs, and he would have them made. He then gave directions to Scott to manufacture 100 shawls of the pattern, and make them up in a parcel, invoiced to E., E. and Co., London. This was accordingly done, and they were paid for by Hanneford and Norton. It appeared that in the interval between Norton's visit to Scott, Norte a had gone to Everington's and had shown the pa...- tern to liurrell, one of their men, when Burrell acquainU him with the whole circumstances as to the plaintiff's owns r ship of the shawl, and the registration. Upon Norton, ho w , ever, offering to manufacture the shawl at 2s. 3d. less ti• r ,n the plaintiffs, Burrell, on behalf of Everington and ( a., gave him an order for one hundred. Under these are u m . stances the plaintiffs' solicitors applied to Hanneford or . the subject, when Hanneford (who appeared to have kJ own nothing of what had taken place) agreed to pay all the cos t s of preparing a bill and affidavits for an injunction, ar . ount , jog to 201., and to sell no shawls manuf . ctere d like the plaintiffs'. He objected, however, • the being fixed with a penalty upon the sale of 61 , ay Ruc h shawl. Further applications were then made to b when his solicitor wrote that he would immediately su spend the sale of any *awl of which he and Norton were the owners or holders, and which were or resembled the Re . 1 Notwithstanding, this letter the plaint- jilit'e'd.= thaw • bill, and obtained an injunction against H Norton, and on this day brought their suit lutteneef°hedearianuad. And the question was whether, after the lett .‘ neford's so licitor , the plaintiffs were justiby sent lithe bill, so as to entitle them to the cos f of the suit.—Mr. Russell and Mr. Stevens e P Peared h plaintiffs.—Die. Wlitram and Mr. Piggott for.thelardeonsofend tee. is Honour : In this particular I am of opinion that the plaintiffs were entitled to the pt . tertian of the injunc tion. Therefore I think that when ne injunction had been obtained, the course for the doefint. ,eats to take was to offer time, submitting to the to pay the costs of the suit to injunction. As they have re done so, and as lam of opinion that the plaintiffs we entitled to the protection of the in traction , I must (thsw .;Is not very willingly), give them tne costs of the suit. • COURT OF C .UEEN'S BENCH. THE QUEEN e. HA ltu ' l • „ ON.—REFUSAL TO PRODUCE Ale APPOINTMENT or Ovu, YEERS. —Mr. Godson, Q. C., and Mr. Remelts), shoe e a t MOS against a rule nisi which bad been obtained for e w .it of mandamus to the overseen of Kirkby LonsdP..e,ln. - he county of Westmoreland , command ing them to • ~.,setnit/ . he prosecutor, a IN, householder in that , ',a , s pect ne order of magistrates under which they C r a l t;- - „ ov ointed.. the rule had been ranted on affidavits that - - t • A.....aarl to sec the appointment. and a efu. ; and suggested that the app licant could not obtain a grit of certiorari to remove the appointment into this court, for the purpose of having it quashed for defects less which the p r osecutor believed would be foun d apparent thereon, un he set out the order of app ointment in precise terms. The learned counsel now contended, that the applicationof the was vexatious and unprecedented ; and that the object applicant might have been obtained by an appeal to the sessions. Mr. Pashley was heard on the other side. The court thought the application unreasonable and unsupported by authority : that the applicant might have gone to the sessions, where questions of form, as well as others, could be entertained ; and that the rule ought to be discharged with costs. THE QUEEN V. THE COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERB. — FINE FOR NOT BUILDING UP TO THE BOUNDARY LINE OP PRIVATE ESTATE A SEWER THAT IS BROUGHT WITHIN THIRTY FEET OP THAT LINE.—A rule nisi had been ob tained for a writ of certiorari to remove into this court for the purpose of having it quashed, on inquisition and present ment of a sewers' jury, whereby a fine of 30001. was imposed on gentleman named Jenkins, in the event ofhis neglecting, within one month, to comply with an order of the Commis sioners of Sewers, made under a bye-law, which req eet of uired that a private sewer constructed within thirty f the boundary line of an estate be built up to that line. The chief objections to the presentment were— that it war fo u nded on the bye-law, which was illegal, be cause unnecessary and not within the scope of the authority of the commissioners, and that the fine was excessive. On the other hand, the legality of the bye-law war supported, and it was farther contended that the writ did not lie be cause the applicant had not availed himself of the proper remedy, which wee a traverse of the inquisition in the court of the Commissioner of Sewers ; and further, that the appli cant had bound himself to observe the bye-law when he ob tained permission to construct a private sewer opening into that which is the property of the commissioners. The Attorney-General and Mr. Bovill appeared for the commis sioners. Mr. Crowder, Mr. Barstow, and Mr. noggins, su pported the application. The court postponed the decision. BAIL COURT. Tan QUEEN V. COMMISSIONERS eon IMPROVING THE CITY 07 WESTMINSTER.—MANDAMUS. —Mr. Wordsworth, on the part of a Mr. Yates, moved for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue to the Commi..b.--- 7 u . 1,7201. was awarded to Yates. The commissioners were rye satisfied with this, did not act on it, and much delay having taken place, the object of the motion was, that the sub mission might be made a rule of court under 6 & 8 Vic., c. 18. (the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act), which is in corporated ia the act for the improvements in Westminster, and by which the appointment of arbitrator, as provided by the clause, shall be deemed a eubmission. By subsequent sections the submission may be made a rule of between the application of either party. The correspondenc thepatties having been read, ?Sr. Justice Erie said , supposing there was a subrniasion wi thout any cause being in court, and it is agreed that it Would be made a rule of court, and one of the parties kept it back, what authority 'would this court have over persons not sultan ?—Mr. Wordsworth : It is given by the statute. Mr. Justice Erie : Is there any case by which a private individual kept back the submission, and the court exa."tines l its authority.—Mr. Wordsworth :In " Lush's Practice' is laid down that if the original submission cannot be obtained the court will allow a rule to be drawn up on a verified copy. Mr. Justice Erle : Yes! that is the practice. After some further discussion a rule was granted, calling on the commissioner' to show cause why the appointment should not be produced, so as to make the submission a rule of court, and that all the documents might be stamped by Mr. Yates and at his expense, or, in default, that the rule of court should issue on a verified copy. THE QUEEN e. CORPORATION 07 LONDON.--2 6 1ANDAmus. --Colin OP are APPEAL.—Mr. Pashley moved for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, calling on the Lord Mayor and Corporation of the city of London to show cense why the costs of a mandamus of Trinity Term should not be paid by them to the overseers of the poor tit he periak of Stockport. It appeared that an appeal had n entered at the sessions for the city of Lond on against the removal of a pauper from St. Botolph's, Bishopsgatc, to Stockport. The removal took place on 22nd December. and the appeal had been entered for the January sessions, and was then respited to the April sessions. The proceedings were quite regular, but when it came on to be heard an objection was made that it ought not to have been respited in January, as it was ready to be heard; then, whereas the statute of 9th Oeo. I. gave a clear power to respite. The objection, however, pre vailed, and a rule for a mandamus was moved for to compel the justices to hear the appeal, which was made absolute in Trinity Term. It was submitted that the present applicants wee entitled to the costa of that mandamus.—Mr. Justice Patteson r (who bad now replaced Mr. Justice Erie) granted a rule nisi. Ex PASTE TEE BISHOP OP BEETER.—CERTIORARL— LIBEL ON THE BISHOP.—Mr. Montague Smith applied, ou the part of the Bishop of Exeter, for a certiorari to remove into this court an indictment for libel against Thomas La timer, proprietor of the Western Times, which had been found at the last assizes at Exeter. It was urged that the libel was a very scandalous one against a dignitary of the church, and that both with reference to the station in life of the prosecutor, the circumstances of the libel, and the attempts which had been made to prejudice the case in Exeter, it was a fit case to be removed into this court, end to be tried by a special jury. The libel arose out of a speech made by Lord Seymour at Totness, in which the conduct of the bishop, with regard to Mr. Short and the endowment of a chapel by the Duke of Somerset, was canvassed. That speech contained matters of great delicacy, and the alleged Ebel alter uttering a string of abuse against the bishop in general terms, went on to say "take the case of his reply to the petition of Mr. Short, presented by Lord Brougham. His lordship gave him plenty of time to make himself acquainted with the contents of the petition, so that he might fortify himself with a true answer to it, but the reply was so opposite to the truth that ho stands branded as a con secrated perverter of facts and a scandal to the mitre, which he receives about 2001. a week for wearing." The motion was made on the affidavit of Mr. Kitson, the bishop's a. *torney. It stated that a true bill for a libel had been found sjf , unit Latimer, and that the facts relating to the petition of Mr. Short, the:speech of Lord Seymour, and the transac tions between the bishop and the Duke of Somerset, would be bro. '4M:in:question at the trial, and would involve einem , stances. 'elating to the license of the bishop to a chapel built by the Duke of Somerset, and that, therefore, it wasa fit case for a ! row jut v ; that the newspaper in question bad an extensive circulation in Exeter among the class of persons from whom the petty j in'y was chosen, and that articles on the subject had been ins e,'ted in it which were calculated to mislead them and pro vent a satisfactory verdict, and that the articles were such as S. ,e,,e likely to give an unfair impression of the case to persons w ho were likely to serve on the petty jury : as an instance, on e of the articles referred to the finding of the grand jury, a. id stated what had occurred there.—Rule graated Ex . —CERTIORA/11.—INDECENT ASSAULT. Mr. G. Hayes appl'ici for a certiorari to remove an indictment from the borough sea: ions, at Northampton, to the assizes. The defendant was a surgeon in that town against whom a charge had hews mi tde for making an indecent assault on one of the members of a club to which he was surgeon. The grounds of the apin'ica tion were, that no counsel attended tho borough session s, and that the persons composing the petty ;wiry were of an is ferior class of shopkeepers, and that from the prejudice ex, it rd against him he was not likely to have a fair trial.—Writ slanted. COUR:E . OF EXCHEQUER. Sin nes in Banco. WYID 0. HOPKINS.— -LIABILITY OF RAILWAY COM- W3TIEEMEN .—The argut emits in this case, which was part h and on Saturday, were resumed this morning. Mr. Mar tin and Mr. Willes were :heard at great length is support of oe verdict obtained by the plaintiff; but the points urged • rere merely a repetition .of those contended for in the newel r ailway cases recently IN Iseult in this paper. The prin t dpal questions were, 'Whether provisional committeemen i ncurred any liability at all,by simply permitting their name nbe published as such ; and secondly, whether the liability of the defendant in thee case had tiara established by the (unauthorised personally by hint) given by Mr. Grid ley, solicitor to the comeany. Mr. Baron Rolfe asked whether it was the solicitor's busi ness to order maps any more than to order the surveys to be made, or receive the deposits;? His ditty clearly was to advise his clients to have those things done, so that they might comply with the standing orders of parliament, and if be exceeded his duty bow could it. be said he was authorised to pledge the defend=er credit ? The Lord Chief heron.—l don't know whether it is usual for solicitors to give such orders, but if this question hap pened to have been raised at the trial, I have no doubt there were plenty of attorneys in court who eoald have given satisfactory evidence as to what the prudes is. Mr. Martin: This is one of the inconveniences of arguing questions in banco which were not raised at nisi pries. Mr. Baron Parke.—lt would be very essential to ascertain whether it was the proper business of solicitor' to give such orders as these; if so, no doubt it would increase the defen dant's liability, but im ordinary practice, although it was the solicitor's duty te. conduct legal proceedings, they could not pl e dge their di ents' credit for a variety el matters essenti for al and indispenst.ble to the carrying on of the business instance,they could not do so for the parchment or law sta tionery requisite, or for the fees paid to the corer of the court. Mr. Watson, i n supp ort of the rule, contended , that this case was dis tinguisha ble from all the others. Here, the defendant mere y assented to his name being placed upon the provisional committee. No meeting had ever taken plate. The order given by Mr. Gridley was under the directions of the =nag. . committee, who were not ap pointed by the provisional ... y. It was absurd to say that the mere consent to become a provisional committeeman, without any other act done, was sufficient to authorise the credit of the party to be pledged to any extent. Mr. Baron Alderson.—We are really arguing the case quite in the dark. There is no dictum or case defining the liability of provisional committeemen, and therefore the real inquiry must be, what has he done to render him liable ? The mere act of holding himself out, or authorising hie name to be held out, as a provisional committeeman, was doing no more than announcing to the world that he was one.—Mr. Watson contended that some direct authority should be given before the order given by the solicitor, who showed the plaintiff the prospectus with the defendant's name in it, could be binding or render him liable. I The Lord Chief Baron observed that Mr. (Indies , Vas WA cross-examined as to his opinion—that he wet r:jtiorissassi solicitor to order the maps to be .:jested by the p laintiff The case of " W yld eneane was then called on, but the rule nisi to enter ti verdict for the defendant was discharged upon a technical informality. The several other cases, in which the mane point was raised as in "Wyld r. Hopkins," are not to be weed, unless the court specia ll y wish it. The judgment will in all probability be pronounced this day, as the point at issue is of general importance. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Before Mr. Commissioner Shepherd. IN HE THE LONDON AND IMMINGHAM EXTENSION TO LEAMINGTON RAILWAY COMPANY.- - ISIS. LAWDHICS, soli citor for Mr. Wilde , applied to the court to grant a day for the p u rpose of issuing a fiat against the above company. It involved a very important point, and therefore required steady investigation. His Honour expressed a g reat difficult y in acting in the matter, but ultimately appointed a day to hear the case, expressing his intention of having the assis tance of one of his brother Commissioners. Ix as T. E. C. Kocx.—This bankrupt applied for eer tfticate.—Mr. Lawrence said that the bankrupt, in order to set himself right with the mercantile world, had desired him to state that he (the bankrupt) was a member of a mercantile house, and his partners, who were in Calcutta, had drawn bills on him to the extent of 6,0001. and he was induced to accept these on the understanding that silks were to be sent in return. He afterwards found that a fraud bad been practised on him, and became bankr upt ered, the. After some discussion, discussion, and no opposition having been off Hate was granted. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT. Before Mr. COmMblidOrter Resets. A MILITART TAILOR'S BILL.—C. F. Christie, • captain in the Bombay European Light Infantry, was opposed for Mr. Thompson, a tailor, and two other creditors. It ap peared that tke insolvent had obtained a:three years' sick 'furlough from his regiment in India, which had expired since he bad been in prison. He was about proceeding to join his regiment wisen he was arrested. The opposition was confined to an inquiry as to property. The insolvent was examined as to some plate in the possession of his brother, MF. for Weymouth, which had been purchased from the trustees of his father's will, and of which the in solvent was said to be entitled to a fourth share of the value.

It answer to questions put by Mr. Ballantine, it was admitted 'that the tea was in the same state in which it was sent from Chins, and that the warrants for tea were very commonly negotiable among brokers and other persons, and it also appeared that upon one occasion the tea in question had been put up to public sale, and had found a purchaser.—Mr. Bal. lantine, on behalf of the defendant, argued that there was no proof of fraudulent knowledge on his part with regard to the teas.—The Recorder having summed up, the jury almost immediately. returned a verdict of Guilty. —There was another indictment against the prisoner for a second offence of a similar character, but it was not gone into.—The officer who apprehended the defendant said he found in his possession several " duffer's" watches, and also a 201. note.—The Recorder said that all the property had better be placed for the present in the hands of the Sheriffs, who would, no doubt, do what was right in the matter. POLICE .-Y ESTERDAY. ETERDAY. MANSION-HOUSE.—Ronutso. — Edicar d Thomas Thompson, and Robert Chulme, were charged with having robbed John Smith, a labourer of Porto bello, near Edinburgh, of 1701. in bank-notes. —John Smith, who had been sent for to Scotland by the Lord Mayor to give evidence, stated that he, on his way to Bedford4quare, fell in with the prisoners, one of whom pre tended to be a stranger in London, when the other tendered his services to show them some of the town. They all then repaired to Gray's-inn Coll', c.house. He afterwards left to go to Smith, Payne, and Smiths' banking-house, Lombard street, where he received on a cheque the sum of 1701. in 17 101. notes. He met the party whom he at first met with, and whom he understood to be a Captain Harvey, in company with Billington, and they all went to a beer-shop in Holborn, where the following occurrences took place : —After they had had something to drink, the prisoner, Billington, on leaving the room, saying that he wanted to see his lawyer, took from his pocket his pocket-book, and laid it on the table, as Captain Harvey said something about his not stop ping, and he said there were bank-notes in it to the amount of 5001. and bills. He stopped away about ten minutes, and on hi. return again, said he had not seen his lawyer. Cap tain Harvey then said he would go and get a stamp for the 1001. which Billington offered to lend him, and he placed his pocket-book, as a security for his return, upon the table. The captain then went out, but he came back in , tantly and beckoned to me, and, as I was going to him, Billington said to me, " Why do you not do as Harvey has done, leave your pocket-book on the table, as a security for your return ?" and so I laid m y . pocket-book upon the table, and we left Billing ton alone in the room.—The Lord Mayor : And all your money was in your pocket-book?—The prosecutor: The whole of the seventeen 10/. notes were in it. When Cap tain Harvey and I got about thirty or forty yards down the street, I declined going any . further, but he wished me to go further for a stamped receipt. I returned, and there was no person in the room, and my pocket-book was gone. The people at the bar said the person t left in the room must have gone out at the back door, and I then gave information to the police.—The prisoners were ultimately remanded till Friday next, when other charges will, it is supposed, be brought against them. BOW-STREET.—Asaarur ON A SHERIFF'S BAILIFF. —Mr. Richard Martin, who is connected with the Sun newspaper, and is a member of the Irish bar, was re-exa mined upon a charge of having violently assaulted a sheriff's officer named Alexander Dolby. In .1 uly . the complainant went to the Sun office to arrest Mr. Martin upon a writ of ca. sa. for 1201. He made use of the name of Martin, which brought down Mr. Martin. He seized him by the coat : the defendant tore away, followed by the complainant, and he then struck him a violent blow with a stick, which rendered him insensible, and he was confined for some time to the house.—Mr. Bartlett, a surgeon, of Chancery-lane, who at tenden the complainant, described the serious nature of the injury inflicted by the blow.—P. C. Thompson, of the division, apprehended the defendant in Pump-court, Temple, after some resistance and an attempt to make his escape. He arrested him on a judge's warrant.—Mr. Clarkson would not attempt to defend so serious a charge then, but merely applied to Mr. Henry to admit his client to good and sub stantial bail.—Mr. Henry refused, but committed him to Newgate to take his trial at the sessions ; and also refined an a pplication made by Mr. Hobler, the defendant's solicitor, that he might be sent to Newgate in a cab. - MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Mr. Charles Benson Breary, a medical gentleman, living at 73, Great Portland street, was summoned before Mr. Hardwick, for an assault on Thomas Road.—The complainant said he had two sub pmnas to serve on the defendant's brother, who lived at 73, Great Portland-street. On the 16th instant he went to the defendant's house, and on knocking at the door was admitted. Having reason to believe that the party whom ho was in search of was in the house, he went up stairs to the first floor, and opened a door, which he rimed immediately, on dis covering that it was a bed-room. Complainant opened the drawing-room door, but seeing two ladies in the room, he apologised, and was going down stairs, when the defendant suddenly rushed at - him, seized him by the collar, and threatened to kick him down stairs. The defendant then at tempted to force him down stairs, and in the struggle usedmuch violence, and hest one of his hands. Complainant told his ha was a process server, and had two subpeenas to sera on his brother. Complainant produced the copy and the original, to show that he had authority for his proceedings. The defen dant, however, continued his attempts to forth him down stairs, and called to his servant to fetch a polies constable. Tho defendant ultimately left him, and went out of the house I to get, as he said, the assistance of the police. Complainant waited in the hall for about ten minutes, but finding no one come he left the house.—Mr. Breary, in defence, said the complainant was told that his brother was not within. I Without mentioning his business, he said he would go into 1 every room in the house to satisfy himself; and he ran up stairs and opened the door of more than one room. Defeo dant went after him, and insisted on his quitting the house instantly, as he had an invalid patient under his care, who I would be inconvenienced by his conduct. Asthe complainant took upon him to open th e doors of rooms in his house, he (defendant) conceived he had a just right to prevent such an intrusion, and he certainly did lay hold of complain ant's collar to move him down stairs, but without striking or otherwise assaulting the complainant. He (defendant) wished to know whether the complainant was authorised to enter his house and search over it, on the plea that he was serving a legal proems ? Indeed, his opinion of the affair was that he was the aggrieved party, and that he ought to have sought for redress by law against the complainant.—The complainant's witness proved that the defendant used considerable violence towards the com plainant —The defendant's witness said, thet complainant was told that Mr. Edward Breary was not omo ; but he would not pay attention to this denial, and he made his way up stairs.—Mr. Humphries said a small fine would meet the justice of the case.—Mr. Hardwick thought that too muck violence had been used by the defendant. The complainant, however, was not free from blame in his proceedings, he having adopted a course likely to produce irritation. As more than justifiable violence had been used, he should inflict a fine of 205., and cons. CLETHEENWELL.ATTUEPTED MURDER AT DUNG , Tex.—Yesterday, George Wilmot alias George Smith, was brought before Mr. Greenwood for further examination, charged with having attempted to murder Mrs. Susanna Haines, the wife of Mr. Jcmes Haines, plumber and glazier, , of Paradise-terrer, Liverpool-road, Is li ngton. The woman ' is still tOO ai to gyre evidence in court, and the prisoner was again remanded for a week. OUTRAGE DY A BROX/M.—About three o'clock in the afternoon the inhabitants and passengers in the neighbour hood of this court were attracted by crowds of persons fol lowing an elderly man wearing a military cloak, covered with flour, his face blackened with soot, and his hat broken es if it had received a good " bonnetting." He was laughed at and hooted all through Frederick-street, Bagnigge Wells road, until he received the protection of Cole, 200 N, Bing ham, BO G, and 13aymin, 76 E, who kept the mob back, and the motley victim rushed into the court in a state of great excitement, and begged the advice and assistance of the magistrate, as he was been outraged and nearly murdered. Applicant's of WU covered with blood and bruises, but the soot was so thick upon him that they could not be seen. He said that he had employed a broker upo n yjun. r oaa to collect, and he (applicant) had called him repeatedly fora considerable sum of money which he had collected, but he was always " put off." He called again that afternoon, when the broker collared him, dragged him, and beat him about the face and bead until he thought he I would have killed him. He called to his assistance four men, 1 who also ill-used him, and with flour or whitening powdered nearly smothered him, and not satisfied with this they black ened his face over with soot. They then beat his hat over 1 his eves, and in that state bundled him into the street to be hooted and hunted by crowds of low blackguards. He mentioned who the broker was, but he did not know his 1 men. Mr. Greenwood immediately granted a warrant. LAMBETH.—Ax ax-Poucnetax CHARGiID WITH AB- Ducnow.—J. Grant, late a policeman belonging to the P division, was put to the bar before Mr. Elliott on a charge el abduction.—Mr. Games, who attended for the prosecution, said that in the month of January last the prisoner, then a policeman, was in custody upon the present charge, but kid managed to effect his escape. An application was subsequently made to Mr. Henry, at this court, and a war rant was granted for the prisoner's apprehension ; but the prisoner managed to elude the vigilance of the police until the night before, when he was taken into custody. It was not his (Mr. Games's) wish to go into the case beyond show ing sufficient grounds for the prisoner's remand to a future and should therefore content himself by O merely requeet ut wrirrant 1•12 of the prisoner) and Sarah Everest (her mother), Taken he ft.- s.

About a fortnight before she left me I found out that Grant and my daughter were too intimate, and I forbade his coming to the house, and tried all I could to keep my daughter out of his way, and it was quite against nay consent and wish that she went to live with him and that she got married to him. At the time my daughter left I lived at the same place where I now reside. My daughter will be entitled to 50.9/. when she becomes of age.—Mrs. Everest now deposed to the truth of her daughter's state ment. Her daughter next got into the witness-box and said that she did not wish to proceed further in the matter, and that if the prisoner was agreeable to return and live with her she had no objection. Mr. Roberts, who attended on behalf of the prisoner, hoped that after this declaration the charge would not be proceeded with. Mts. Everest, however, de clared her determination to prosecute the prisoner, and this being the case, Mr. Elliott observed that the mother, and not the daughter, was the prosecutor, and therefore it must be proceeded with. The prisoner was ultimately remanded. THAMES.—lmeon•ra:vg TO BUILDERS. — A case of con siderable interest, not only to builders and the district sur veys:Ts appointed under the 7th and Bth Vic. cap. 84, was heard at this court. It arose out of a claim for 301. made be hfr. Joe eph Henry Good, jun., district surveyor for Bow and Poplar, being on account of alleged additions made to three houses ere .' at Ferry-road, Isle of Dogs, by Mr. John Parry, an extensive builder, of Bethnal-green. The discus sion, which occup:ed a considerable time, may be thus narra tively summed up. Mr. Parry, in June or July last, built the three houses in question, which were surveyed, and the fees paid as for fouth-class houses. As the erections arose, kitchens and washbouses were added, which went on part passu with the main portion of the building. For these additions Mr. Good claimed 10s. as his additional fee on each house. The claim was resisted by Mr. Parry, on the ground that he was exempted by a passage in one of the schedules of the Act, which runs as follows : " For every such attached or detached build ing, distinctly rated (except any such attached or detached building, built at the same time as the building to which it belonged, was carried up and covered over in '2l days after such building shall have been covered in within the meaning of the act), such fee, Ste." Mr. Parry relied upon the passage in the parenthesis, and called one of his foremen to prove that the parts upon which the addi tional foes were claimed went on in equal progression with the bodies of the building. i This witness, however, gave his evi dence in so loose and inconclusive a manner that nothing to the purpose could be elicited from him. Whilst he swore on the one band that the whole of the buildings, adjuncts, and all, were covered in within 21 days of each other, he in the same breath stated that the main building was roofed in in July, whilst the outhouses were not covered its until Septem ber.—Mr. Parry seemed surprised at this testimony, and said that if time were allowed, be could prove his case by the man who slated the premises this day.—Mr. Wood said he had no witnesses, and could only refer to the memoranda made in his nett-honk as he visited the premises from time to time.—Mr. Broderip, considering the question as one of great interest, more especially to builders, allowed the de fendant the time he required for the production of his witnesses. MONEY MARKET. MU:CD/a EVIIIING. From the improved appearance of the market this afternoon it would seem probable that the account, now close at hand, is not likely to be so favourable to the speculators for 1 ; the fall as was for some time expected. The rise in Consols, which is equal to 5 per cent, upon the prices of Saturday, 5 might, however, be the result of some of the continental advises coming rather better in money and stocks. Until 2i nearly the close of business Consols remained as they opened, 2 ! 955 to I for both this account and money, but they left off 1 1 with an improvement to 941 buyers; for next account they were quoted 911 buyers ; Reduced Threes, 931 to 1; Three- 5 and-a-Quarter per Cents., 951 to 1. The government broker at took 15,0001. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. for the savings 4( banks, and 3,0001. Threes Reduced for life annuities. The purchases on these recounts have been continued for several weeks past at about the same rates of amount on each ld day of the week but Saturday, when it is not the custom for the official broker to transact that sort of business. A considerable quantity of stock must therefore, in the aggre- 1 gate, have been taken off the market, which has been of ma terial service in supporting the prices of the funds under the pressure at some periods of discouraging circumstances and prospects. Exchequer Bills advanced to 90. to 12s. pre- 4 mium. Long Annuities, 91 to 15-16. India Stock, 236 to 1 3. India Bonds, 17s. to 20e. prem. Bank Stock, 20.5 to 6. The transitions in foreign stocks continue to be of the same unimportant character. Chilian Bonds stand at 91 to 6. Mexican, 211 to 21. Spanish Fives, 251 to 5; the Threes, 365 to 75. Portuguese, 36 to 8, nominally. The Lisbon correspondence, in the Daily News of yesterday morning, in which full details were exclusively given of the great act of financial spoliation promulgated by the Portuguese government, (for they were partially only published afterwards in second editions of the other Journal%) attracted much attention hi the City, and created no small astonishment even in quarters. not without experience of the reckless dealings and bad faith of Portuguese financiers. It seems incredible that in these days a government should be found so imbecile as to con ceive that paper money could be equalised with coin and bullion in current value by tyrannical decrees, and threats of brute force. The Bank of Lisbon and the Confiancos Association, being both insolvent institution., as represented by the inability of the latter to fulfil its engagements, and in the other case by the discount to which bank paper had fallen, say to less than four-fifths of its nominal value, the decrees for rendering that paper a legal tender in all transac tions at its full figuratively expressed worth, are equivalent to a declaration that the Bank and its colleague shall pay some 15s. or 16s. in the pound only upon their present issues and just debts. The prohibition, with the pains and penalties attaching, against " establishing one price (of com modities), for payments in notes, and another for coin," is neither more nor less than an extravagant absurdity, which it passes the power of the most ab.oluto g svcrnment to en force. All arbitrary as the ruler of Buenos Ayres may be, and an utterer of depreciated paper money to no inconsiderable amount, even he never imagined the gross folly of attempt ing to make his paper dollars pass for the full equivalent of a hard dollar, and to compel his people to replete prices upon the one standard of value in each case. His paper dollars have fallen to, and are current at, some threepence sterling each, whilst the hard dollar exchanges currently, without let or hindrance from him, for nearly a score of its nominal representative in paper. The retrospective action given to the conditions of this Portuguese decree for im posing a vicious, damaged currency on the people, by which alllexisdng contracts and agreements hued on payments in hard money are declared null and void, is not the least ini quitous characteristic of this State paper act of spoliation. So far as British interests are involved involved they must be to a large extent—there can be no fear of exemplary satis faction being required and enforced eventually. But action in the case should nevertheless be prompt and decisive in the matter by this government, or the present ruin of many individuals can never be sufficiently compensated by any future redress. The late treaty of commerce between Holland and I Belgium appears to be exciting. great dissatisfaction among the states of the Zollverein, in Prussia more especially. Petitions numerously signed from most of the large manu facturing towns, each as Dusseldorff, Aix-la-Chapelle, &c., bad been addressed to the minister of finance at Berlin, in which the superior advantages accorded to Belgian coin merce were signalised, and the consequent prejudice to the interests of the Zollverein, Among the articles which u nder the treaty are admitted at lower rates of duty from Belgium into Holland, than from the Zollverein, are mentioned cotton and woollen fabrics, metallurgic products, &c. The petitioners pray that the government will use all its influence to bring Holland, either by means of negotiation, or by reprisals, to place the Zellverein on the same footing of advantages with Belgium.

In North Staffordshire. there was some impi•ovement. Cale donians, a nd Shrews h ury and Birmingham' were in better demand. Some of the French lines were rathei higher also. The Liverpool market had ra ther a drooping appearance, and the old stocks were again lower. The speculativo ones were also easier, except Dewsbury (blue), which were:very scarce. At Manchester Lair:nese was limited, and mice! generally lower. Leeds and Dewsbury: formed an exeCption.

LONDON.—ASTURIAW MINING COMPANY: PROPoSED RAlLWAT.—Yegcrday a special meeting of this company was held at the office in Auetinfriars, for the purpose of receiving the late favour able report on the company's quicksilver mine in the Asturias, and also on the present state of the iron works. The chair was taken by G. Colquhoun, when the report alluded to was read to the 111dt lag, from which it appeared that a most famurable change had taken place in the cinnabar mine. At present they have 250 tons raised to the surface, which are valued at 9,4001.; there is ore in the mine to be extracted estimated at 15,0001. more. The none cost the company altogether 2,700/. The imn works are now in a reiv for ward state, and in about a month the Meet furnace will be finished, when profits may be looked fur. The report from the collieries is also very favourable. It is the confident expectation of the directors that before the next annual meeting in June they will be enabled to divide a profit of 20 per cent. on the paid-up capital. The chairman alluded to the efforts of Mr. Iluahenthal to raise a company in the Asturias for making a railway from Mitres to the port of Alviles, on the Bay of Biscay, and the advantages being so great would induce the directors to recommend an appropriation of shares in this com pany towards suck a railway —A Director said, if they only had n railway to the coaA, they could supply Algiers for the French govern meet, and also the Spanish government, he-ides the ports of the Mediterranean. The proposed railway would be contiguous to their lime and ironstone.—The Chairman said there was a determination on the part of the inhabitants to make a railway, from a conviction of its being a profitable one; the distance would be shoot 30 miles. After sane discussion the report was adopted ; a resolution was also passel approving of the arrangement with Mr. Eushenthal, and leavi n g the unappropriated tares to the future discretion of the directors (3,000 of which were to be awarded to the railway projectors). A reaolution was also passed for making another call of 2/. per share in two instal ments, between this and next June. A rote of thanks was then passed to the Chairman and Directors, and the meeting adjourned. PROVINCIAL.— EAST LANCASHIRE RAILWAT.—An extraordinary general meeting of this company was held yester day, at Bury, to obtain authority for the directors to IWO.. ceed foe new trenches and rake additional espial. There wry an average attendance of shareholders present. Mr. John Grimily presided, and a series of resolutions were proposed autho rising application to parliament for power to construct a branch from Accrington to Clitheree ; a branch from Whalley to Burnley; a branch to unite with the Fleetwood, Preston, and nest Riding line near Mitten; a branch from Ormskirk to Southport ; an extension of the Onnekirk said Preston lines into Preston, a nth inde pendent station ; a line for better connecting this line with the Man chester and Leeds at Burnley; a deviation at Lomb, Hailingden, and Rawtenstall, with a short cool branch at the latter place ; an extension through Whitetield, Prestwick, and Broaglaton into Manchester, so as to render it unnecessary to pans over the Bolton and Mancheiger lino ; and to raise new capital for these purposes, to oppose rival lines, and enter into all neceasary agreements. Before these resolutions were submitted, Mr. liichthon, the managing director, explained that there was an absolute nmesaity for making the two most expen sive of these extensioni. (those into Manchester and Preston) in con sequence of the want of station accommodation the London and North Western and Leeds Companies were able to supply, and the cod of tall over the lines of those companies, taking into ouusideration the amount the East Lancashire would have to pay for this accommodation, and for the tolls, the directors would be amply warranted in laying out capital in these extensions, and would be able to secure out of it an ample return upon such capital. The total new capital eought to be raised was 850,0001. It was proposed to raise this new capital by the issue of 30,000 new shares of 251. (25e. deposit) ; such shares to be distributed pro rata, two shunt to the bolder of every five of the present shares, the issue, of mune, to depend upon, and be restricted by, the success of the new schemes in parlia ment. He gave a flattering account of the traffic, so far developed, in proportion to the cost, as compared with the traffic on the alder lines of the country. The resolutions were all carried, there being two dissentients, however, to the extensions into Manchester and Preston. In answer to • queetien, it was stated that the new extension lOW Manchester would be from within half-a-milc of Bury, and would be eight miles long; but the necessity for the pre sent line would not be altogether superseded. LANCASTER AND CARLISLE.—ShouId the weather prove favourable, it is fully expected that this railway will be ready for in spection by the government inspector, on Thursday next, the 26th inst., and, if so, it will be opened for public traffic on Tuesday, December 1. WRITEHAVEN JUNCTION.—The rails on this line are now laid down within a few yards of the Whitehaven terminus, near Harrington, and the line will be open throuthout for the conveyance of torts traffic, if not for passengers, early in December. WIIITEMAVEN AND FURNESS.—Last week Mr. Robert Stephenson, chief engineer of the line, inspected the works on this railway. He also examined the proposed tunnel for connecting this line with the Whitehaven Junction, and he entirely approved of the whole of the works.
