THIRD EDITION. LAW INTELLIGENCE.--(TIiLS DAY.) COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. - - gi t tiap in Banco— (Before the Lord Chief Justice and Justices Mellor, Luah, and Hannon.) THE SEW JUDGE. Mr Justice Flannel% this morning took the oaths of mr,MICI and allegiance on his appointment as one of the judges of this COW*. ENGELL C. FITCH. peeth Chief Justice, in delivering judgment in said it was argued before the late Mr. jvtice Shoe. Mr. Justice Lush, end himself ; but in consegoence of the illness and death ef the late Mr. Justice Slim, whose loss, in common with the whole of th e profession, the court most sincerely lamented and dreloml, it was impossible, although the judgment was prepare d just before that learned judge's illness, to sub mit it for hie consideration ; it must therefore he taken es the judgment of himself (the Lord Chief Justice) and ge r . Justice Lush. The action was for damages for • b ea ch of contract in the sale of certain freehold pertY, iihich the plaintiff recovered damages. Ards was s ee: i iiently obtained =damned to enter the verdict for the defendant. The judgment of the court was that the Ah should be discharged. ei,tot r. sAIIITH—THE CIiAMPIONgHIP OF Dig mule& Mr. Serjeant Ballantine (with whom were Mr. Garth, Q.t'., and Mr. Tenuent) said this was an 'Mimi tried before the Lord Chief Justice, at Guildhall, when the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for 1501., with leave to move to enter the verdict for the defendant, the editor of the Sportsman, who was the stakeholder on the occasion in question The plaint:ff is a waterman, sad he had entered into articles of agmement to row, for ISM a side and the Championship of the Thames, with another waterman named Kelley. The men were to row accord ing to the recognised rules of boat racing, and the referee's decision was to be final. The terms of the agreement were umed with, and Mr. Bitfin, who was selected by Under% Minsk, was speed to by both sides as the referee, and there wee not the slightest suggestion that there wee anything approach leg unfairness in his appointment or in his con duct. The race was rowed according to appoint ment until the boats fouled, and the referee deciding there were faults on both sides, directed the race to be rowed on the following day. On that day both men ap. peered at the appointed time and place. Ths defendantcon tended that the plaintiff never intended to • siert, but the jury decided he had. It was essential that the race should be rowed within very narrow limits on amount of the -tate of the tide. Some 20 minutes or half an hour Owed, in which there were many false starts, and ulti mately the referee came to the conclusion that the plain ts did not intend t, stark but that he was shamming, cad be directed Kelley to row over the course. The Lord Chief Justice—He directed Kelley to first tell Sadler what he was going to do. Mr. tierjeant Ballantine said the referee undertook to give orders that Kelley should row over the course. The Lord Chief Justice—There I differ from you, and that is the weakness of your case. The only ground, it appeared to me, on which you could possibly move, or have any ground for contending yon were entitled to the ver dict. was the order which the referee gave in award. in' you the stakes. The fact was that Kelley thought Sadler did not intend to start and there were certain circumstances which fairly he thought might lead to that Inference, though the jury found that Sadler did intend to start. That may be more or less open to question. Kelley, however, believing that Sadler dui not intend to start, went to the umpire's boat and told him he could not get Sadler to start, upon which the umpire told him if Sadler would not start he was to start without him. Kelley went back, and at • considerable distance from Sadler shouted that he was going to row over the course by the order of the referee, but without informing him the terms in which the order was made, or giving him an opportunity of coming up and starting if be had been so Inclined. When Kelley wu within fifty or sixty yards of Sadler be turned round and rowed over the course, Sadler mothering the slightestnotion of what was going on. Kelley having started, some one communicated to Sadler, but the men being so equally matched, it was useless for Sadler to follow with such • disadvantage. Kelley afterwards claimed the stakes, and, in spite of Sedlsr's pro test, the referee, without inquiry, directed that the Makes should be paid over to Kelley. The jary in answer to my questions, found that Kelley did intend to start, and that the referee had no means by actual observation of forming his judg ment that Sadler did not intend to start. And upon the whole I think the jury found per fectly right that the referee's order was not properly conveyed to Sadler, and that a fair opportunity was not given to Sadler to tart if hews' so inclined. Mr. Serjeant Ballantine said those points were not so very material, because he moved on the broad ground that the referee's decision was final,'no matter how he decided, whether on his own knowledge or on the information of others, or if he acted without any know ledge upon the matter whatever. His decision, therefore, being final the stakeholder was bound to hand over the money. Whether it was desirable that sporting matters of this description should be transferred from the ordinary tribunals before which they were decided and occupy a considerable portion of the time of the superior courts, might have been * matter some time ago worthy of consideration, but it was extremely important not to have appeals from the decisions of referee properly appointed;and who acted bona Ede. as was admitted on all aides in thin case ; nor was it at AI desirable. TLe Lard Chief Justioe said that what be told the jury ea whatever powers the referee might possess, he mciit either on his own observation, or being clutuol with a sort of qasailudicial function, be must sarcittin by the best means in his power, by hearing both si•lrs. thr f.Lces of the ease. The referee here had done bather. And that was the sole question. M,. :ierjeant Ballantine—And assuming that decision w.ni buns fide ? rh Lord Chief Justioe—There was no pretence for say so a. this case. The referee had since admitted that he • s too hasty in deciding. Mr. serrant liallontine said Mr. Biffen was a very mo de.t man, ar.d bad since said that if he was again placed in a menhir position he should decide differentdy. The ati..l counsel then argued at considerable length in sup pot of his proposition that the decision of the referee by the terms or the agreement between the men was final, and th it he might decide without seeing anything that nah.pited. He might in fact, be enjoyine his lunch below th- shot. of the time of the race, anddeoide am he pleased at the end of it without taking evidence. tie Lord Chief Justine ultimately said (after conferring 16.1) th , other judges)—You may take a rule, but we do tot hold out much hope o f its bein g made absolute. M , . •cucant Ballantine—Your lordships, I assure you, h..• le. conception of the depth of my hopes. (Lou d ,;ranted. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

Bitting* in Baneo.—(Before the Lord Chief Baron and Barons Marlin Bramwell , and Pigott.) THZ DIAZ or succuront V. TEI inersorotrriat BOARD Or WORCS. This action wu bris4ht by the Duke of Bessieult against the Metropolitan Board of Works, to 11100VOt the amount awarded to him by Mr. Chas. Pollock, Q.C., acting in the aspecity of umpire, as compensation for having been deprived of the nee of a pier or jetty running down from his grace's residence, Montagu•house, White- hall, to low water mark, and for the mansion and lands having been depreciated and otherwise injuriously affected by the works carried on by the defendants under the Thames Embankment Act. The trial took place before the Lord Chief Baron on the Bth of February last, when a verdict was returned for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., now moved pursuant to leave reserved, to set aside the verdict, and enter • ver dict for the defendants, or for • new trial on the ground of misdirection, and that the verdict was against evidence. Mr. Pollock awarded to the duke • sum of 8,325/., the jury found a verdict not only for that amount, but for interest upon it, and for the expenses of the award. The learned counsel contended that if it should turn out that the umpire had awarded any sum, however small, which he had no jurisdiction to give the award was bad, and the defendants would be entitled to the verdict. His grace and his anceators had beta lessees of the propsety for upwards of tin sentmrisa. There was en old lease from the mown whisk embed. in 1868, but some years prior to that period a freidiea was granted to the duke for 99 years, in consideration of his laying out 20,000/. in the erection of a new mansion. He had actually expended between 80,0001. and 100,000 in building the existing Mantissa-home. Mr. Hawkins sub mitted that there was no grant of the jetty to the duke under either of the lessee, that the jetty was really public property, and that therefore he was not entitled to com pensation in respect of it. Mr. Baron Martin said it appeared that the jetty bad existed from the time of Charles H. He did nut know whether Sir Walter Scott could be considered an authority upon such a matter, but he spoke in one of his novels of stairs from Montagu-house to the Thames. Mr. Hawkins wished be could avail himself of such an authority, as the proses. would be both instructive and amusing. Mr. Baron Martin said there could be no doubt the Madre belonged to the Old Palace of Whitehall, and the Crown could make a grant of them to anyone. The Lord Chief Baron—As at present advised I am of opinion there was abundant evidence to prove that the jetty was an easement and right of way belonging to Mon tagu-holm, and that it passed by the general words in the lease to the duke, who is consequently entitled to com pensation for the Lou: of it. Mr. Hawkins then argued at some length . that in regard to various other matters for which the umpire bad allowed certain sums the plaintiff was not entitled to compen sation. Ih;oourt granted a rule generally. Rule Did ORIENTAL BANK CORPORATION.

He said he should not give more, and asked the defendant for his ticket, Irkesh• be refused to give saying that he bad not got one, and demanded hie (the complainant's) card. He gave him the demanded card, and then the defendant began to swear at him. He told the defendant that if he did not eve him a ticket he should gammon him, and turned end walked up kis garden to the street door.

He said , "171 take sere that you shall have your house broken open far this." Several time, he said that he had not received a farthing, and ailed him a cheat. When be was tired, and had got a mob around the house, he got on to his cab, took up the florin he had given him, and said, " Here is the money you pee me," and drove off. By Mr. Riekette—The defendant was sober. He did tell me that he had not got • ticket with him. - My card I gave to him had no &darer on it, but my name was on tb. door.

Mr. Cooke said that it was proper that there had been three SOIMM011•01 taken out bk this case, one far each separate o ff ence, or Mr. Ricketts, for the defendant, would have contended that if they had been put into one that only one offence could be dealt with. It wee quite clear that the defendant demanded more than his legal fare, and that when asked for a ticket be refused to give one. It was a grave offence to abuse the complainent, when he refused to give what was de manded, and he agreed with the complaisant that it looked very much like extortion. It was the duty of all cabmen—Awes their trade—to know exactly what the fare was. This was, in his opir.ion, a very bad case. For the abusive language the defendant would have to pay a fine of 30s. and 2s. costs, or in default 21 days' imazi:- mint with hard labour in the House of tics ; for demanding more than his fare a fine of se. sad 2s. costa, or in defaultseves days' imprisonment; and for also refusing and neglecting to give a ticket he would have to pay a fine of 21. 6d., or in default fire days. The defendant was removed in custody, and the com plainant said that he would give the costs to the poorbox, he having taken the matter up on public grounds. PUBLIC MEETINGS.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before the Right Boa. Sir Robert Philnman.) PROCEEDINGS AOAINST A CLERGYMAN FOE NOT PIGIPOIRM ING PUBLIC DIVINE AERTICL-THE BISHOP OP WINCHESTER P. THE REY. LEWIS RAOG. Thin toss a ;idiomMuted by the Bishop of Winchester against the Rev. Mr. Rea, the incumbent of Eochinswell• with•Sydmooton, near Southampton, for not performing public divine service in the church of St. Mary, Sydosonton. Dr. Deane, Q.C., and Dr. Swabey appeared for the Bishop of Winchester; Mr. Brooks, the proctor, re presented the defendant. The point is, whether the incumbent, having a bene fice with two churches—one of 601. and the other of 501. a year—could clone one of them. He alleged that when the church was re-built no endowment was made, and he could not pay a curate. A question was mimed as to whether the church was consecrated, and the Privy Council held it had been consecrated, end the decision was binding on this court. His lordship said the complaint was that Mr. Ragg had not obeyed the wishes of his bishop to perform a marvioe in the church, and no service had been performed since May 5, 1867. He had to consider the parishioners as well as Mr. liagg, and he should give to Saturday week, and unless Mr. Ragg (who excused his &banes on: account of indisposition)appeared, or counsel or proctor on his behaU, he should proceed to give judgment on that occasion. Order accordingly. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Kr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

Mr. Charles Hermann Go/when, of the firm of Fruhling and Goachen, and Mr. Alfred Charles to Rothschild, of Rothschild and Sons, were yesterday elected directors of the Bank of England, in addi tion to twenty-two oth,,r gentlemen who have served before. The directors of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company have just decided to recommend to the proprietor., at the meeting on the 29th instant, the payment of a dividend of 11. per share, free of income tax, for the half-year ended the 31st Dec. last. Mr. Lewis H. Haslewood has loaned the pro spectus of a loan of the Indiana Southern Railway Company to the amount of 10,000,000 dole., or 2,000,0001., in 7 ”r cent First Mortgage Bonds of 1,000 dole. or 2001. each. The price of issue is 80 per cent, or 1601. per bond. It is provided that By the tonna of the bonds both principal and interest are payable in New York, but the oompsny has agreed to pay them in British starling is London. Bach bond bears iaterest at the rate of 7 per cent. on its nominal amount (equal to 81 per Gent on the prim of issue), payable on lst August end Ist February in each year (commencing on let August, 1868), after the rate of 4s. per dollar. The bonds an redeemable by means of an accumulative Mat ing fend of 11 per mat per annum applied half-yearly, on tat Aut and lit February (oommencing on lst Feb. may, 1869). It appears that the railway company have con veyed the line and all their other property to two New York trustees, as security for the bondholders, while the trustees of the funds realized by the loan are Sir John Lubbock, Bart., and Mr. William Gladstone, of the firm of Thomson Boner and Co., the object of the trust being to crests a redemption or sinking fund , sad to apply the remainder to com plete the line. After payment of preliminary ex penses, the money required for the purposes of the sinking fund is to be invested in British govern ment annuities in the names of the trustees. Pro spectuses and forms of application may be obtained from Mr. Haalewood, or from Messrs. Roberts, Lubbock and Co., or Messrs. Herniae, Farquhar, and Co.
