But even then, he should contend that the fire upon the plaintiffs' premises was not in the eyes of the law the natural consequence of the ex planes upon the defendants'. The Lord Chief Justies—lf seek an allegation as you contend for would improve the declaration, and if the facts juatlfied the plaintiffs in freeing the owner of the intermediate boon from all blame, the judge at nisi • would at owe give the plaintiffs leave to amend, by nob an allegation. nrlrMiwklne—Why, the whole injury was done within an hour, and it took us 1,0001. to repair. The Lord Chief Justice mid that although the court, I were very far from considering such a claim to be unsup portable,_ yet it wee not noonnery to decide the point thee, as the defendants could raise precisely the same question under their plea at sot guilty. And if the defendants could prove negligence on the part of the hawse/diets oweer, the ddence now urged by Mr. Lush would be upheld by Yr. sawldas , Q.C., and Mr. Clifford appeared for the plaintiffs, but were not said upon. the neighbourhood of Clapham, end in the coons of his trade he published • handbill offering to pwohase • great number of artides wills& were mantkinedia ag o e . A copy o f this bill got into fk Lad, 11,.. Aiderman Mumphmy, who, lOW sertnination of the public business at Guild ft•oisitued the bill and made some comments upon it, o_ticrtbing the system as one offering great inducement to percolate to rob their roasters and ruietreeses. A true report 'of them oteervatione appeared in the paper ; and utheequendy there was • leading article upon the headbill. The plaintiff complained of the report in the first count, sod of the leading article in the second, alleging that each of them was • libel. At the trial before the Lord Chief Justice the fury found • verdict for th e de fendant, but afterwards a rule wee obtained for • new trial, upon the grounds of misdirection, and that the verdict was against the evidence. It was contended that the publica tion of Mr. Alderman Humphery's remarks, which were unauthorised, voluntary, and extrajudicial, rendered the defendant liable in thu action, notwithstanding that the report was correct. If this were so, then the duty of the jury was simply to aver damages upon that coun t, an d that his Imdahip ought so to have told them ; but instead of doing so be never put the first count distinctly before them, but left the matter to them pi nerally. His lordship, in summing up, laid down the law as it was laid down by Lord Elleoborough, in " Carr v. Hood," which was an action against a review for an alleged libel contained in an unfavourable uotice of • book, and it was contended by the plaintiff's counsel that the law in reference tokeviews of books did not applytoobeervatioas in reference to • trade blink(' the one in question. The rule now came on for argument. Mr. Edwin James (with whom was Mr. Loth and Mr. Manley Smith), in showing cause, said that it was a 'mistake to say that his lordship lied not directed the attention of the jury to the first count, for it was plain from the short-hand writer's notes that he had especially plead that count before them. As to whether the publication of Mr. Alder man liumphary's remarks was privileged, it was never attempted to put the are upon that footing, but upon this: that the remarks were fair comments upon the han dbal l, and therefore needed no privilege. It was submitted that it was clear that the mine principle applied toe criticism upon • handbill as upon • book, and it was asked what ground there was fordrawing anydisti action between the two cum. Again, it was difficult to say what was the distinction between trade bills and books, for some of Moans. Hoses and Son's trade publications were done up in the form of books containing poetry and other literary productions. Mr. Justice Meador said, in commenting upon a book it was not allowed to impute improper motives ; but such motives were imputed in the publication of the alderman's remarks, the head-line being " Encouragement to servant, to rob their masters."

By section 28 it wee provided that whenever the mining works should approach within tweedy yards of any masonry or buildieg belonging to the ninny, notice was to be given to the company. After service of the once the company might deliver to the mine owner a de e/anion that they reqnired the on or mineral under such masonry or building *plying within twenty vary thereof, in which ne the company should purchase the coal. In case the company should not deliver such declaration, the owners ought work or get the minerals under the masonry or buildings, provided the same were worked in the usual and ordinary manner of working mines, and that no avoidable damage were done to the masonry or buildings. In 1836 the Durham Junction Railway Company com menced building the Victoria-bridge for carrying their line over the river Wear, the abutments and foundations does end of the bridge resting upon land purchased by the com pany from a Mr. Boulcott Under the surface of this land there were strata of coal which had been partially worked, but abandoned linos 1791, the works being filled up with water. The Victoria-bridge wee completed in 1838. All the property and rights of the Durham Junction Railway Company had been vested in the pressed plaintiffs, who, in 1854. received the name of the North Eastern Railway Company. In 1859 the defendant, who bad ebtaied a mining lease from Boulcott, began operation neer the :a way, with a view to pumping out the water from mdse. neath the surface occupied by the abutments of the bridge, and served the plaintiffs with notice of his intention to work the mines. The plaintiffs warned the defendant that the coal or water couM not be removed from underneath the land in question, or the immediately adjoining land, with out en angering the Victoria-bridge. and causing peed and irreperabLe damage to the plaintiffs ; and they filed their bill to restrain the proposed works. Evidence woe brought forward as to the state of the mine, and the support affid to the surface by the strata of coal and the hydraefalie rare of the water with which the mine is now tiled. Irwyea s dated that If the water was drawn off the coal was likely to shrink and muse the surface to subside. The question involved was the legal right of the plaintiffs to the support of the surface, and whether the worlds( of the mine would not do damage to the bridge. The Vim-Chancellor was of opinion that the injunction prayed by the plaintiffs ought to issue, but he gave no meta on either side. The present appeal was then brought. Mr. Holt, Mr. Dickineon, and Mr. Hannan, of the com mon law bar, were for the appeal. Sir Hugh Cairns, Mr. ilobbouse. and Mr. Mellish, of the common law bar, were on the other side. Judgment was postponed. Jainin—lt must depend upon the nature of the book whether it would he justifiable to impute tad motives, and besides the question whether the comments were Liz was one for the jury, and they had decided it. Mr. Ribton and Mr. Lawrence_ appeared ... Mr. 11114100 saC " lc r rain Isewa in lVV:don ithat the rule should be discharged. He could see no distinction be tween • hand-bill or advertisement published to all the world and • book, and in his opinion both were subject to the same kind of criticism. The form in which the docu ments appeared made no difference; all books were originally published in the form in which this advertisement appeared, and many advertisements were now published in the form of books. If this were so, then the document in question was subject to fair and reasonable comments, as lied been frequently laid down, and he had asked whether any ease had extended the same liberty to oral criticism, but no such ease was produced. His opinion was that the document was a legitimate subject of criticism, whether written or oral. It yea conceded that Mr. Alderman Humpliery's comments were not privileged by reason of being delivered in a court of justice, and they stood therefore upon the same footing as if they had been the comments of any private individual. The comments, however, were privileged in Mr. Alderman Humphery's mouth, if the jury though t them of a fair and reasonable kind, not redacting upon the plaintiff's private character. The same doctrine applied to the criticisms of the paper itself, and the question as to both counts was precisely the same. There was, therefore, no objection to the direction. Then, as to the question whether there should be a new trial upon the ground that the verdict was againettlt• evidence. Actions of libel stood upon a peculiar footing. The act of the 33rd Geo. 111., which was • declaratory set. said that the judge "should " (which Mr. Justice Littledale interpreted " might") give his opinion as to what was a libel, but the question of libel or no libel was for the jury alone. The true question having been left to the jury, it was not necessary for him to say whether he should have come to the same conclusion as they arrived at, for it was impossible for the court to take upon themselves to withdraw such a matter from the jury. He might, however, say that Mr. Alderman Humphery's comments were, in his opinion, fair and laudable, indoor future jury could not give more than nominal damages. to discharge the rule upon this ground, therefore, seamed to him to be mercy to the plaintiff him self. Rule disclaimed. 1 COURT OF EXCREQUER—Noy. 16. Sittings in Beam —(Bstors the Lord Chid Baron and Barons Bramwell, Mansell, and Wilde.) AMMON V. DINHT.—.CONPOHISION WITH mincrrons.

Mr. Pearce, in stating the case for the plaintiff, said that he was a native of Gibraltar, and had come over to this country in company with an animal which had acquired a considerable amount of distinction, " the talking fish," un happily now deceased. The fish had been brought over by a Ir. Caved, who exhibited it at Liverpool, and while there It was purchased by the defendant, Mrs. Gallagher, for 300 i. It was arranged that the plaintiff should enter into the service of the defendant in attead awe on the fis h, to which he wee much attached and to whew wants he had been in the habit of administering. So ai g laintiffwas envied " to go circuit" with the fah— ter)—at a salary of 1L per week, with board and and such perquisites as be might obtain from the spectators. The fish died ; and in consequence of some depute the plaintiff left the defendant's service. The plaintiff now claimed his wages of lt. • week for 61 weeks, seder the arrangement he had made with the defendant, who had promised to pay him as soon as she sold some waz figures which she bad ether exhibition. The plaintiff waii then nailed. He said—l am a native of Gibraltar, and was in the eniploy of Mr. Omni, who in truded to my care "the biking fish." I wee at Liverpool le December, 185 S whoa the fah was exhibited in Lime street. A Mr. Pollard, • friend of the defendant's, came and asked me if Mr. Cavani would sell the fish.

She said to me after the fish died that she would give me some money whim she sold her wax figures. Mr. Seymour, in addressing the jury for the defendant, said that although this was an action about a talking fish, there would be no occasion for much talk on either side. This wonderful animal, which was nothing more nor less than a seal, had been unfortunately caught off the coast of Africa one line sunny da, while he was enjoying his usual recreations. (Lau ghter.) It was said he could imi tate the human voice, but all his colloquial capabi. litiss were limited to his calling out " Ma," like a burly child with a big roll in his mouth.

It was his duty to give the talking fish his bath and to wrap him in fleangs afterwards, In fact, he was a poor foreigner, whohad come over in the same ship with the fish, and at that time knew but little more of the English language than his com panion.

COTTON.—LnicaPooL, Nov. 16. —The market opened on Saturday last with firmness at the rates of the encod ing day, but on Monday, after the receipt of the steamer's accounts, it became quiet, end has since been very doll, the demand bang almost suspended by the continued fussing of the rate of discount by the Bank of England, the advance yesterday being to 6 per cent. Priem of American at the close of the market yesterday were very irregular males having been made of ordinary to good ordinary at id. to id., and of middling grades at Id. per lb. decline from the quo. tations of Friday last. Brazil remains nominally as before Egyptian is id. per lb. lower. Surat has been in M i tt request, and is difficult of wile at a partial decline of ad. per lb.

The market to-day opened tli j ..c:7 spirit at rday's rates; probable sales 5,000 balm, of which 1,000 are for export and on speculation. 001 TON GOODS.—hIssiCHIS72I4 Nov. 16.—T0 various other (MUMS which have checked basins= for some weeks past may now be added the drain of gold, which has dteed the Bank of England further to raise the price of discount& Whilst there is no serious alarm felt on this 'abject it has the effect of inducing caution, and buyers rem disposed to wait and see the extent to which these mastery derangements will go. Prices are moderately steady, but in some few cases goods have been rather weaker. The legate business of the week has been materially lessened , and but for producers having orders to fall bark upoa prices would probably suffer mom seriously. For cop yarns above 3Cfs extreme prices are no longer obtainable. 0011.27.--CRILMarOItD, Nov. 16.—There was a fair sup. ply of wheat and large of barley to-day.
