f ~i~ ~. ~~ i 4.: ~"',~"~, LAW rENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY. Dec. 24. PEARLS V. lIROWN—NIUDGMENT. Zechariah Brown was entitled to an annuity of 931. arising out of the residue of an estate left him by his father. Being distressed for want of money, a sum of -2001. was raised, and advanced by the plaintiff, for which Brown granted an annuity of 371. a year. The annuity was secured by warrant of attorney, and deeds of covenant. No notice was given to the trustees; There was alto another transaction with a person of the name of Sheariug, by which another annuity was granted. and no notice of this was given to the trustees; these transactions took place in 1808. The annuities were regularly paid till 1811; in 1,812 Mr. Brown publicly aches tised his interest for sale. Mall, one -of the defendants in the suit, was attracted by the ad vertisement, and entered into a treaty for and od -snarly purchased the interest. Afterwards it was ascer tain& that the property bad been previously assigned, and then the present suit was instituted to ascertain the priorities. Upon the case coming before Sir Thomas Palmer, the Master of the Rolls, he was of opinion that the plaintiff had not a right to come into a Court of Equity to enforce his claim, no notice having been given to the parties of the existence of prior incumbrances.— It was urged at the bar that there was no authority for such a decision. There certainly was no specific case, kett the case of Wright-and Lord Dorchester approached it. His Lordship went at some length into the facts of the case, and in conclusion observed-that be con curred entirely with the judgment pronounced in the Court below, from which this was an appeal. LOVRRIDOE V. cooraa. The Lotus CHANCPLLOR thought it right that he should also give judgment in this case, into the particulars of *bite it was unnecessary to go, the same points being raised as in the case of Deltic and Brown, and it would therefore follow that the Court should pronounce the Game decision. WINTER V. LORD ANSON. Judgment was also given in this case, the particulars of which have been so frequently before the public that it is unnecessary to repeat them. His Ludship eons. firmed the judgment of the Court below. COURT OF KING'S BENCH.. GorsonaLs, Dec. 24. • CLEASIT V. ROBINS. This was an action by the administrator of a Gentle. man of the name of Cleasby, against Mr. George Ro bins, the auctioneer, of Covent garden, to recover 5001. deposit and interest, under the folloiing circumstances. In Jane 1825 the late Mr. Cleasby became the pur chaser, for 9,0001. of an estate near Stroud, in Glou cestershire, which was put up for sale by auction by the defendant. In the particulars of sale the property was described as a capital freehold infestment, consist ing of I residence and 261 acres of land, producing at low hats nearly 4801.—estate freehold, and land tax re deemed. On - signing the contract for the purchase, the plaintiff paid the defendant 5001. as past of the deposit money. An abstract of title being afterwards delivered on the part of the vender, it was found that the title began with a will, in which certain freehold and lease hold estates were devised ; but none of the subsequent title deeds distinguished the leasehold from the freehold property. The abstract being laid before a conveyancer, Mr. Cleasby was advised that the title was not a g oo d one ; notice was then given to the vender that the title cou:d not be accepted, unless the obscurities appearing on tire face of the abstract . were remoied: The title was nor, however, completed; and Mr. Cleasby, after ;waiting some time, brought his action against the pre sees defendant (Mr. Robins) to recover the 5001. paid to him under the contract for sale. Mr. Cleasby having since died, the present action was brought by his edits*. nistrator, who now claimed, in additton to the 5001. interest upon that sum front the dine the first ictien was brought. Rvidente having been given of these facts,' Mr. F. Pi.eeoeit,for the defendant, submitted that the plaintiff, if he bad any cause of action, ought to have sued the 'redder, and cot the defendant, the auctioneer, who knew nothing of the state eif the title, and bad paid the auction 'duty out of the 5001. The vender had also brought ga action-against him to recover the 5001. and 04faction was still pending in the Court of Exchequer. Lord TiNTERDRN was clearly of opinion that the plaiiitiff was entitled to recover in this action. The ab *tract Aid not show such a titleots by the particulars and conditions of sale the vender was bound to adduce; and the defendant having received the money as the agent of the vender. was the prow party to be sued. Mr. PULLOCR submitted that the amount of the auc tion duty paid by the defendant ought at all events to be dedpcttd from t he 5904 b ut . .4 Lord TENTESIRSN thought not. tie would, low esera he said, give the Leagued COunsel leave to snow to reduce Pm damages by deducting .the amount of the auction-duty, and also the interest which his Lordship s i as at relent ‘4o,#, eras of opinion the plaigtif visas bellied to. Evidence was then given for the defendant, that the vender had commenced an action against him in the Court of Exchequer for 5901. and also for damages for Oleg& negligence in not receiving from the purehaaar the whole of the purchase. money. Under the al•recttoutt of Lord TIINTERDINI the Jury then fund lot the plaintiff—Damages, 5521. 10s. Before Lord Termennes and Special Juries. • MARSLAND V. LtiRD VISCOUKT OLAMIS.

Iff4' 'superseded, the creditors having sonseotg4 in *ceps their debts by insular - eau ' the last of which was gun ranteed by the plaintiff . They were, however, unable to Meet the first instalment on its Isctorriros due, 'and, iii consequence, a second `commission was 'sated agajp,l them on the fiGth of March, 1896. It beseg necessary to examine the plaintiff as a witness, touching the bank rapes estate, the defendants, who were named as Coni. teissicavrs, limed their summons on OP 144 of 1826, requiring the plaintiff u, appear berm theta at Nor %etch, on Tuesday. the 18th of April, at t• n in the morning. The plaintiff being in London, the summons was sent to the agents of the solicitor to the cummilsiOn, and their clerk sowed it 'upon the plaintiff in London, es Aloncloy, the 17th of April, at five O'clock in the ,attrrnoen, tendeplng him A the slonthis a to defray his expenses down to Norwich. The plaintiff, on re. ceiving the summons, objected to the shortness of the time given, stated that he was afflicted with lumbago, and eculd not therefore travel by night ; and, also, that he had important business to attend to in London on the following day. The clerk who served the summons sc• companied him, at his request, to-tis attorney, who said he did not consider the summons legal on account of the shortness of time allowed for the plaintiff's at tendance, and he also urged that the 41. which was tendered to the plaintiff for his expenses was an ina dequate sum. The plaintiff expressed his willing. ness to attend the Commissioners at the end of the week, if they would make another appointment, sod requested the clerk to write to Norwich to that effect, which he promised to do. On the evening of Monday, the 20th of April, the plaintiff was arrested by a She. riff's officer, under a warrant, of the defendants. He was taken the same night to Norwich, where be arrived' about eleven o'clock on the following morning, and was kept in custody ,at a tavern until the Commissioners met at eight o'clock in the evening, when he was exa mined before them, and at eleven o'clock was dis charged out of custody. He subsequently brought his action for the imprisonment, and it came on for oat at tiuildhall last July twelvemonth, when Lord Tenterden directed a nonsuit. The Court above having in Trinity Term last set aside the nonsuit, the cause now came on for trial a second time. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in addressing the Jury fot the defendants, called their attention to the language of the Act of Parliament under 'which the warrant had been issued. By that Act, which wasthe last Bankrupt Act, the Commissioners were authorised to call before them any person who might be supposed to be able to give evidence touching the bankrupt's affairs; and if, after being summoned, the party did not appear before them at the time appointed, having no lawful impedi ment made known to them at the time of =eels& and allowed by them,they were authorised by warrant under their hands and seals to direct him to be apprehendedond brought before them to be examined. It was under the authority of that Act of Parliament that the Commissioners had acted in this cue. Until that Act passed Conimissioners • of- Bankrppt had no authority to issue a warrant, and it was necessary to make application to the Lord Chancellor to compel a party to attend be'ore them. Such a mode of proceeding, which was a very circuitous one, was found to cause considerable delay and inconvenience, and in consequence the late Act was passed, by which the Commissioners had the sole power of deciding as to the sufficiency of the excuse made by the party sum moned fur his non attendance. The present defendants had, in the exercise of that discretionary power with which they were invested, issued the warrant for the apprehension of the plaintiff, and, if the Jury were trot already satisfied that they had acted fairly and properly in the execution of the power intrusted to them, he had no doubt of being able, by the evidence which he should adduce, to convince them, that under the cir cumstances, they were fully warranted in what they had done. Several witnesses were then examined for the defence From their evidence it appeared, that shortly before the commission of bankrupt issued against Messrs. Silvey and Saunderson, the latter had informed the plaintiff of his intention to go to America, and to take with him some goads to Oi•pose of there; that the plaintiff, on ascertaining the state of the affairs, proposed to buy up all the debts due from the bankrupts, and that some of the creditors having reason tobelieve that the plaintiff was acquainted with facts connected with the bank rupts and their affairs which it was important to have• disclosed, urged; at a meeting held under the commis sion, that the Commissioners should issue their war. rant, in order that he might be immediately brought before them and examined. Sir JAMES Scanrarrr is his reply observed, that on the former trial Lord Tenterden had directed a nonsuit, conceiving; as he then did, that under the Act of Par. Serpent the Commissioners possessed a power which could not be controoled ; but the Court above had since held that the power must be reasonably exercised, and had therefore.directed,a new trial in order that the ques tion might be lac to the Jury, whether or not the power had been reasonably exercised in this ease? The Learned Counsel then urged that,there was no evidence to show that the defendants were apprized of the plaintiff having ere► been summoned to attend before them ; , and he con tended that they bad acted with a rashness and precipi tancy wholly unwarranted by any circumstances which bad come to their knowledge. Lord TSIITZIIDZII I after calling the attention of the Jury to the words of the Act of Parliament, and recapi • tulatiag the evidence, left it to them to say whether the summons had been served at such tisue,as might have led the Commissioners reasonably to expect that it would be obeyed ? it was certainly not physically impossible for the plaiiitif to attend, but still the time was very short, the summons being served in Loudon at five o'clock io the sliming, and the attendance being required, at a distance of 112 miles, by me o'clock the nest morn ing ; and he was by no means prepared to say that a person was bound to lay aside all his engagements, ond to Ake laii,depaAturs immediately, and travel pH night, is order to obey sesnonans which was served upon him at so late as boat. The time to be allowed oughtno. doubtedly to be a reasonable time.

It es for the loss riming Irons this ref ge vi getter with the expenses attending it, amoontiog in the whole to 11111. that the preent action W4l, brought. What the defence was to be, the Le ailed Sergeant alas at a loss to imagine; but he had been given to undet stand that one ground *told be, that the plaintiff's title to the vessel was detective, as no cettificate of registry bad been produced. He would show, however, that that defence could not be available. as the thiog sold was a mere wreck, and incapable rf navigation, and could Con.equently be transferred from the possession of one party to that of another by the simple cettificate of the builder. Mr. Woolcombe, the ship broker, stated that he sold the vessel on the I I th of Decerober..lB27, to Long, and that' he then made no objection of any kiwi, except that he insisted on settle" off against the arocus t of the purchase-money, a claim which he bad against Major Cochrane. He added, that a short time helot e die, second sale an objection was raised as to the plaintiff's title by Mr. Davis, Long's attorney. In cross-examination he stated, that Long had paid down 2001. as a deposit immediately aft, r the purchase; and that as he had since failed to complete the purchase, that sum hid become fotfeited„ and was, he added, more than sufficient to compensate the plaintiff for the loss and expenses attenditig the resale. Re-examined—The deposit was paid to' him, and he paid it into the hands of a banker, but it had not yet been transfeded to the plaintiff, as he had received a notice from the defendants not pay it over. • 'Mr. Sergeant WILDE submitted, that as the deposit money in the hands - of the agent was found to be greater utast tfie alleged loss, the pction was at an end. Mr. Sergeant TARDY contended, that the de sit was to be foe felted at all event., in cas- r.f she nen-folfilmrsit of the purchase, and that the plaintiff had a rigt.t to claim !or expenses in add tion to that so An argument of some length was here entered into by the Counsel on both sides; at the close of which Mr. Justice PARK said, that he was so convinced of the impropriety of the action, that he would niihsuit the plaintiff at all risks.

William de Maguire, fur the postage of t* • letters at Cuckfield. •Mr. Lotto and Mr. CLARKsoN conductedthe prose micro ; and Mr. DARBY the defence. It appeared that the prisoner VAS intru teJ to receive and carry letters and postage, on the cross ir•st between; Crawley, in this county, and Slaligham. On the 29th ' September, the General having occasion tese nd a letter to Paris, gave It to the prisoner, With the usua l p ost ag e ; ls. Bd. for the purpose of taking it to James Swift, the. post-master, at Crawley. Sime viteks alter a letter arrived from Paris, expressing some wonder on the pail of the house to which be directed the aliovementioned letter, that no such letter bad come to hand. Inquiries were immediately made of the prisoner, but he said he had forwarded the letter in the usual way: At length, on the Ist of December, the prisoner carnet° the Gene. ral's house, and producing the letter given to him es the 29th September, said he had just Guild it between the lining of his jacket and the jacket itself; he, how., ever, produced no Is. Bd. in lieu cf that paid to him by the General. When reminded of this by the house keeper, he acknowledged that he owed the General I S. Bd. This was the case on the part of the prosecution. Mr. DARBY objected that no proof had here been given of the prisoner having taken the oath of office necessary under the Statute of the 9th Ann, c.lO. 5.41. That Act provided that no person should be'capable of exercising any employment relating to the post office, unless be had first taken the oath therein mentioned. Mr. Lotto contended that the words of tl.e 5 Geo. 111. c. 25. s. 19. precluded the necessity of giving evidence of the prisoner having taken the oath of office required by the 9th Ann, c. 10. s. 41.. The words were—ii If any dZputy, clerk, agent, lettei-cariier, or other sat vant,uppointed, authorised, and entrusted to take in letters or packets, and receive the postage thereof," and so on, "shall be deemed guilty of felony." Now these words would clearly apply to any person who was not officially appointed at all, but merely engaged occa sionally to perform the duty of an officer, at might be here. Now if that were so,.there could be no occasion to give proof of the prisoner having taken the oath of Office; besides this, he had never heard that a man could take advantage of his own non•fcasance of apses which by Statute he was bound to perform. Mr. CLAftzsost referred the Cow t to Clay's case, where, in an indictment against the defendant, founded on the 7th George 111. c.. 50, s. 1, for ensbersling a bill of exchange, he being ,a servant in the post-office. the present objection was taken. The point was 'curved, and the twelve Judges overruled it. 'Mr. Baron Hut lock had ruled the same way, in a late case on the pre sent Statute, on the Northern Circuit. Mr. Justice Buenos:oil said he would reserve the point, and leave the case to the Jury on the present evidence.
