HOUSE OF LORDS.-Arxu. 6. APPEALS. THE ALEXANDRA. Yesterday the Howe of Lords held • special judicial sit ting, for the purpose of delivering judgment in the aim of the Alexandra. The noble and learned lords present were the Lard Chancellor, Lord Crenworth, Lord fit. Leonard's, Lord Wensleydale, end Lord Kliagedown. TRI £TIOIINET-012111AL V. ILLLI2B AND OTC. It may be remembered that this is as appeal from a deci sion in the Court of Exchequer Chamber, arrived at on Bth February, 1864, diamiming an appeal from the Court of Exchequer. The OW was argued on several days last month, and ju t ." Lord P =or now delivered his opinion in sub stance to this effect. He dated that the appeal depended on the question whether the rules made by the Court of Exchequer were warranted by the powers_ given to that court by the 26th section of ad and 23rd Vick. c. 21, commonly called the Queen's flamembranoer's Act. The second Common Law Procedure Act of 1834 contained very important provisions, most of which created new rights of appeal. Cases which had been tried by juries were decided under different rules before the Act of 1854, and there was no right of awed nrictly so called. The creation of • new right of appeal required legislative authority, and it was not competent either to a court of first instance, or en appeal court, to create rights of appeal, which would in fact be extensions of the jam diction of such courts., which had no inherent power to alter the nature or extent of their jurisdiction. In the act of 1854 it was thought necessary to bind the courts with regard te rights of appeal, and this was done by the 36th section, which made the Exchequer Chamber and the House of Lords Courts of Appeal ; but by that act the revenue aide of the Court of Exchequer was excluded from the right of appeal, and a new act of parliament was required to give an appeal to that side of the court. The Barons of the Exchequer had assumed that power had been conferred on them to create new rights of appeal by the 26th section of 22nd aad 23rd Vie., cep. 21 ; but if the legislature had done this they would have done • very singular thing, and it was not likely that in • matter which related to the taxation of the subject they would abandon their functions, and leave it to the Barons of the Exchequer to say whether then Auld be a right of appeal between the crown and **subject. The 10th section of the Queen's Remembranoer's Act applied to the revenue aide of the Court of Exchequer new powers with regard to errors, and now rights of appeal were crested by the 14th, 15th, and 16th sections, and suits between the crow n and the subject were by uprise enactment put on the same footing with regard to proceedings in error as those of the Court of Common Law, except as regarded interlocutory matters. It was difficult to say that rights of appeal in those respects were not specially omitted, but it was more difficult to say with the Attorney-Oeneral that power was given to the Barons of the Exchequer to create them. The 26th section contained two powers which were even to the Barons of the Exchequer; and ow was to make rules regulating the prunes , practice, and mode of pleading of the revenue side of the court tinder this power any rule* laid down by the Barons regulating the proceedings in revenue cases did sot require legislative sane. tin. The second power given to the Barons was to apply the rides of the Common Law Procedure Act, and the pro ms, practice, and mode of pleading of the plea-side of the court as they should deem it expedient, so as to make the proceedings of the revenue side uniform with those of the plea side. The provisions of the act of 1854, which might be applied to the re venue side, mast be such as were applicable to the process, practice, and mode of pleading ; but it was difficult to give • different meaning to the words con ferring that power to that which they bore in the first part of the section, and which applied to the proceedings in the Court of Exchequer itself only. The question was whether the rules which had been famed applied to such moms, prac tice, and mode of pleading. Now an appeal was an act by which • superior court was entered for the pupa* of re dressing errors committed by a court below, and it would be absurd to denominate this part of the practice of the in ferior court. The enactments of the datute in ques tion crested new relations between different count, which were se distinct from the practice of the courts below as municipal was from inter. =timed law. The take which had been made by the Buono of the Exchequer were equivalent to so many legis lative enactments creating new powers in the Court of Ex chequer Chamber and the House of Lords. In his opinion the barons had DO power to make such rules under the powers conferred os them by the Queen's Becumbrancer's Act, and if the argument of the Attorney-General was ac cepted it would involve the assumption that the Court of Exchequer had power to make rules for the Bones of Lade, which would be absurd. It was to him • subject of deep regret that any rules should have been made by the Court of Reneguer expressly for the deter mination of a particular cause. It was four years since the Queen's Remembrancer'a Act had been passed, and it never occurred to the Barons of the Exchequer until the eve of • motion for a new trial in the present case to make such rules as they bad then framed, and they had done en necemarily without the due deliberation which such an act demanded. It thus happened that this important cue could come to nothing except the ridiculous nue of some discordant opinion on the meaning of word'. He moved that the appeal of the crown he dismissed with nets. Lord Cesnworth having given • description of the procedure of the Court of Exchequer oa the plea aide, and showed wherever it differed from that on the revenue side, proceeded to my he had come to the conclusion that the rules giving • right of •p peal were warranted by the 26th coition of the act 22 and 23 Vie., o. 21, they being calculated to make the practice of the two sides of the Court of Exchequer uniform, and there fore that the jodgmeut of the Court of Exchequer Cham ber should be reversed, and the appeal allowed. Lord BR Looser& stated that he had formed • decided opinion on this case. He wee clearly of opinion that the present appeal should be dismissed. Lord Wensleydale said that the quinine involved turned on the 26th section of 220 d sad 23rd Ver... a. 21, arid the point was whether that season authorised the Court of Exchequer to grant an appeal after a motion for • new trial had bees refused on the revenue side of the court. Ho was of opinion that this woe • rescuable and convenient power to be exercised by the court, and one which might well be dela pted to its judges. He thought that the second part of the mortice authorised them to maks such rules. The word " practice " was to (be taken in its largest esnee, and ex tended to granting an appeal. Rethought there was nothing in the objection which bad bees taken thattheraleshad been made during the progress of the cause, and to meet this particular case ; sod as to their retrospective effect, it was equivalent to the provisions of an sot of parliament which did not prevent its opera:ion being retrospective, and which would then become applicable to soy existing cue. In his opinion, the judgment of the Court of Exchequer Chamber • tto be reversed, and the present appeal allowed. Cbeltbdord expressed his regret that the Court of Exchequer had made the rules in question to meat the exigency of the present case. He was strongly of opinion that the court went " ultra wires" in making rules for giving the right of appeal under consideration, and he had no hesi ditationoes& in saying that the appeal before the house should be Lord Kingedown briefly concurred in the opinion that the appeal of the crown should be dismissed. By a mejority of four to two, the appeal was then dis missed with costs. The offset is that the verdict in favour of the claimants of the Alexandra stands. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

Modys' clerk, and it appeared that he had been allowed to have postage and bill stamps from time to time, upon the repre sentation that they were for his employers, who had an account with them, and from September in last year up to January in the present he had had as much as 37/. worth of stamps of different descriptions. The prisoner, it appeared, also obtained 21. worth of postsge-stamps front Mr. Pear son, &autotimer, he beiag allowed to have them upon the re preeeotation that they were for Mr. Mody, who he maid was away, but he promised to take the mow y on the following day. As he did not call again, however, Mr. Pearson sent to Mr. Mody for the motley, and the fraud was then disco vered, which led also to the discovery that the prisoner had obtained the stamps alluded to from Messrs. Smith and Co. It was proved by the managing clerk to Meters. Mody that the prisoner was not authorised to obtain the stamps, and that he bad never rendered any account of them. Mr. Beard, who watched the case on behalf of the pri soner, said he should not trouble the'oourt with any observa tions, and the prisoner was committed for trial. WESTMINSTER. Mr. Moran, cab proprietor, made an application to Mr. Arnold referring to the recent extraordinary discharge of prisoners under civil process. Applicant said that he took • driver on Monday last, who was to pay 12s. per day for the hire of hie cab. He brought it home at night, after having had the we of two horses, arid left it without paying any money. He came yesterday (Wednesday) morning, and without making the slightest offer to pay the 12a, demanded the rutoration of his license, which as usual he bad deposited with applicant, and said that if he did not return it in the comae of the afternoon, he would take him before a magistrate for unlawfully de taining it. He wished to know what he woo to do with the driver. Mr. Arnold said that he might take a summons against him for the amount of the earnings in the ordinary way. Applicant said in the present state of things such a course would be useless, as the driver, when committed by the magistrate for his breach of cont ract,: would only go by the van to the gate of Whitocrossatrest prison, and then be set at liberty. Mr. Arnold observed that it was very deplorable, and he must say discreditable, that the magistrates in the county had no means of enforcing any civil proem' at present. Hs suggested that applicant might go to the county court. Applicant said that some of the judges of the county court refused to entertain such complaints. It said in the act of parliament relating to hackney carriages, that all die put' between mash' and drivers should be decided by justices of the peace. Mr. Arnold observed, that by the 23rd section it wee obvious that the county court judges, had concurrent juris diction with the magistrates respectiog earnings. He sug gested that the proprietors of hackney carriages should appoint a deputation to wait upon Sir George Grey, who could perhaps hardly be aware of the inconvenience and im pediments caused by the present unfortunate state of things. SOUTHIVARL Mary Sullivan, s rather masculine looking woman, fre quenting the exterior of London•bridge railway terminus under the pests's°, of selling oranges, was charged with savagely attacking Margaret Donovan, another orange vendor, and gouging her left eye out. The complainant. wham face wee bandaged up, said that on the previous afternoon she was selling her oranges in Duke-street, Loodon•bridge, when she saw the prisoner go op to her Oster mid strike her without the slightest pro vomtion. She iemoostrated with her, when the woman turned round upon her and struck her a violent blow, which knocked her down. While on the ground she fell on her and bit her Seger. L the struggle the prisocer put her finger ix her left eye, and completely tore it out, lacerating the skin. A constable came up at the time, and conveyed her to Guy's Hospital, when her eye wee, with some difficulty, replaced, but eke was still suffering severely from the injury. Prisoner—You struck me fins and knocked me down. Witness—l never touched you until you knocked me down sod bit my Boger. In aoswer to the charge, the prisoner said that eke sever touched her eye ; that must have been done by her felling on the edge of the kerb stone. Mr. Woolryelt told her that she was a savage brute, and committed her to the Souse of Correction for four maths, with bard labour.

The prices of the plots range from 471. up to 5001. each. For the lest specified plot having a house thereon let at 40/. per 111311IIM, there was a keno competition amongst the holders of early right. of choice, but a purchaser of IN o. 1 on the register at 501. premium received the earliest selection, and bought the 5001. plot. For the plot having the public-house privilege, No. 52., price 2001., there were also many demands, lint eventually the buyer of right 28 at a premium serried off the prise. Since the opening of Batteresfrpark, and the Jane. tics railway conimonication between the two banks of the Thames, the &mood for houses in I lough lane, owing to its proximity to the New Wandsworth and Clapham Junction Station, has been great, and quite anew town is springing up in this neighbourhood.

The balloon at first took a north-westerly course, but when at an altitude of not more than 1.000 yards, it became suddenly obscured by thick clouds, and it is probable that an early descent was made in cousequecce of the unfavourable state of this weather for observations. IMPORTATION OP FOREIGN CATTLE. Last evening a number of gentlemen connected with the foreign cattle trade dined together at the Gonda. Tavern. The object of the gathering was to celebrate the opening of a new and more convenient route for the • of foreign cattle, rut Thames Haven. Mr. = a rt ° ,of the well-known 6rm of Phillips. Graves, and Co., presided, and among the gentlemen present were Mr. Wightmait, the manager of. the Thames Haven Reilway, Mr. Marcus Pole, Mr. Scharf, Mr. Garrler, Mr. S. M. de Vries, Captain Schmidt, Mr. Giblet; Mr. Phillips, Captain Schwan», and • large number of gentlemen connected with the cattle trade from Holland as well as dealers doing as extensive business in the New Cattle Market. After the usual loyal and patriotic toasts bed been pro- Poted. The Catrartax, In giving the toast of the evening, stated that they were amembled together for the purpose of celebrating the opening of • new route by means of which the imparters of cattle from Rotterdam and other parts of Holland, as well se from Bremen, would he placed is more direct oommunicatioo with the New Cattle Market in Copen hagen-16kb" than they had hitherto been. The importance of • free and speedy importation of settle from the Coati emit to this emery was acknowledged on all bands Up to the prompt time the great bulk of the cattle impeded bed been brought up the Thames, landed at the wharfs, and driven through the street. of London • and although recently inducements had been o ff ered for the Ladies of cattle at Harwich and their conveyance by railway to Loa der, yet the mesas of eonsentaiethioo was neither so speedy nor so satisfactory as to Woo, the large traders to adopt it. A new route, however, had now been struck out, via Thames Haven, which promised in every way to be satisfactory, whether as regarded the rates or the speedy transit. It was, perhaps, not unnatural that those interested in the old route should interpose dif acuities, or offer inducements by means of cheap through fans, with a view to deprive the trade and the public of those advantages which the Themes Haven route would give them. He thought, however, that the substantial advise. tars which that route would afford would in itself be suf ficient to induce the trade to support it. In point of fact, the advantages were already recognised by the Rotterdam and Bremen traders, and he lied little doubt that sootier or later the whole of the foreign cattle trade would be brought I tia Thames Havao. It was but just to the Thames Haven Company to state that every facility bad been afforded by that weapon both for the landing aged direct conveyance of cattle to the market. Hr. Wightman, the manager of the company, was preset, and he would inform them that the company were in • position not only to receive the cattle, but were posecesed of all the neormery means to transmit them with the utmost speed to the market. Ia cooelmies, he proposed success to the new route, coupled with the name of Mr. Wightman. (Cheers.) Mr. W 1011T11•21 stated that he bad bees engaged fa the duty of receiving and despatching cattle ever awe the peer ing of Sir Robert Peel's bill. He might say that of thousands of cattle bad pawed throug h his bands at Brunswick-wharf, Blackwell. This was an age of program, and the speedy transit of all kinds of prods°, to the thief market had now become as absolute necemity. He had watched with a great deal of attention the various order. inleouncil with referee°, to the importation of cattle, and although he quite agreed that it was neomeary to take measures against the imported= of dimmed Wale he was of opiates that any of the muleteers tithed were sot oily obstructive but absurd. The propagation of demos amours tattle by the impertatios of foreign beasts wee to a great extant • myth, but, at all events, while the regulations existed with reformers to the inspection and esparaticm of cattle arriving from abroad, it was absolutely necessary to have • larger epee for that purpose they the present wharfage apace. It wee equally necessary alto that there should be • speedy meths of transit between the port of debarkation and the market. He had been cousulted epos the subject by Mr. Graves, and it had been determine' ripen to make the experiment of landingicattle at Thames Hama The proximity to Loudon and the large quantity of lead which the company had at ;hair command rendered that port an admirable one for the debarkation of cattle from Rotterdam end Braaten, and as • proof of its greater cosemissee with reference to the new market be might romitioo that last week a cargo of cattle landed there was actually in the market at Coperdiagen-fields before the telegram 'amends( the arrival of the boat at Harwich reached Stratford. (Chews.) That was cionehmive es respected the speedy target from the ports of exportation to the Losdavniarket, and the importance of the fact could be well 'warted by the large dealers. (Hear, bear.) He could only add that the company he repremated would give itioreased facilities as the trade grew, aad as a proof of their esremeneee is the matter, be mentioned that be had that day applied to the government to appoint • resident inspector, be, cer the pet of the company, guaranteeing the express mud each time as the magnitude of the trade justified th e executive in taking th e matter into their own hands. la conclusion, he gave the health of the gentlemen oeammetad with the cattle trade. . _ Mr: Guiana returned thanks, observing that the edam tags, were so obvious that there could be no doubt as to ad:supporting the Dew routs. Mr. Gamer% in proposing the health of the importers of tattle, pointed out that the question of cattle supply from abroad was beaming more and more important every day. Already there had beep imported this year 109,000 limed of cattle, 448,000 sheep, and calves and pigs iv proportion, and he believed that if facilities were not given to the im port trade, the effect would be an increase of something like 4d. per lb. on the priced meat. It was, therefore, theirinte rest to we every mean@ for the conveyance of cattle brought to our shores to the Loudon market as speedily as possible. and there could be us question that the new route would sooomplish this better thee any other at present is exist «los. The stopping of cattle, for the purposs of Insure tics, at the port' wee neriessary, but the power sboujd be exercised 'adieiously, and no iniusaisnary delay should be 10 , for this was • gaieties is which t hs whole of the public were interested, sod every facility alma be gives both to the importer and the dealer. Various other toasts having bean given sad ampanded to, the mooting separated. °FIXING 07 THI HAY/TIM!

On Tuesday, at Doncaster, George Logan, age' 30, • well•dressed man, was charged with eliding a dock of the vales at IW. from • firet-chiss carnage on the Great North= Railway. It appean that on Monday night Res. Maxwell, of Teriat Bank, three child,,. under her char ge: Miss Price, and Mr. Robertson, M.P., travelled in a tea ches carriage from Newcastle to York. Mr.. Maxwell had a travelling clock, • bag, • dressing-case, and seven,/ ' other articles with her to the carriage. She got out at York to have some refnehmeet, and on returning found that the vacant seat was occupied by the prisms', and that bee La ; and clock bad disappeared. Mrs. Maxwell told Mr. Hubert. son what bad happened, and he beckoned the 111.4t100. master and guard. A search was made, and the La i found, but not the clock. The stationmaster advised ~lr. Robsetson to look at his own luggage, and whilst he did so took occasion to tell him that live or six of the swell mob of Load= were suspected of being down, and to hint that the stranger might possibly be one of them. He said be would telegraph to Doocaster for the police to be on the look out. Mr. Robertson returned to the carriage, when the trim started. lie advised Mrs. Maxwell to do nothing till they got to London, and was very polite to arid apparently unsia. 1 picious of their fellow traveller. He led him into coover., Lion, and soon discovered that he was not a gentleman, although his appearance certainly indicated that Le WU, Mr. Robertson then felt satisfied that he was CA thief. The train stopped twice at places where there were no polio., and be was much afraid the man might get out, but be was determined he should not do so. un arriving at Doncaster Mr. Robertson occupied the curiae window, and got the two guards to come to the door and to call two policemen. Then getting out he at once t o the prisoner in charge as having stolen the clock. he policemen hesitated to take him, but the stationmaster haring been beckoned, sod Mr. Robertson mentioning tie name, sad offering to take the whole responsibility, he we. taken into custody. Another moustachioed man, who pro. bably was soother of the swell mob, tried to °Name the proceeding, but Mr. Robertson stopped him f rom interfering. Oa arriving in Loudon at the Gt.: Northern station the guard brought the two super. intends:ruts of police, who, on making a march, found th e clock in the prisoner s carpet beg. After hearing the eel. donee, the bench committed the prisoner for trial. H e h es been identified as a swindler newly liberated from prison. He had imposed a few days ago upon a jeweller at York. and had obtained • large quantity of jewellery under Jahn preteen's.
