,~ LAW INTELLIGESCE COVET OF KING'S BENCH, hors 6. " FSLTON to. ORXAVES AND ANOTHSR. The ATTORNST:ZENERAL (with whom were Messrs. Baourstrass and Rome) stated that this was an action to recover compensation in damages from the defend ants, for having infringed the plaintiff's patent. Theplain tiff invented a new and very ingenious and useful machine for sharpening knives, scissors, and razors, and other cut ting instruments, and in June, 1827, took out a patent for it, which, with the specifie'ation, was enrolled on theist of August in the same year. This was certainly a very simple machine, the importance of which depended on its being of constant and daily convenience and utility. A great number of men had occasion to use a razor once a day, and many ladies had almost daily occasion • to use scissors. and many of both sexes had occasion to use knives and forks everyday ; and, therefore, a ma chine of this kind, by which the most unskilful persons could sharpen these instruments with the greatest ease and precision, was an invention of no slight importanie. The natural consequence was, •that whenever the machine was made known, great numbers of them were sold, particularly those for sharpening table knives, which invariably gave complete satisfaction; and this great demand and rapid sale was, no doubt, the temp ' cation which led the defendants to make a machine, varying a little in form, but exactly on the same prin ciple, and for the same purpose, as that of the plaintiff, thereby, infringing his patent, and depriving him of the advantage to which the invention of -so ingenious and useful a machine well entitled him. This case was selected from a number of others, in hopes that a Jury would give such damages as would prove an effectual restraint on these practices. The patent and specifica tion were then put in, and the material parts read. Two specimens of the machine were produced—the ohe cal culated for the sharpening of knives, the other for the sharpening of scissors—these were formed of steel. Another specimen was produced formed of stone. One gnat 'advantage of the knife machine was, that it sharpened both sides of the knife equally without any risk of turning the edge. Messsrs. Parkins and Smith, cutlers, stated• that the invention was perfectly new; they had never seen any thing like it before; it completely answered the purpose, and they had sold great numbers of the machines, and *Sever knew 'an instance in which it bad not given entire satisfaction ; some difference was required in the form and material of the machine, according to the descrip tion of the instrument to be sharpened; two of the ma chines produced were made of steel, another was made of a stone called Charley Forest.—(Lord TENTERDEN A very good name, and one which ought to be remem bered.)—The meaning probably was Charlwood Forest. it was a good stone for sharpening knives, but bad to sharpen a razor ; the machine would require to be made of hone; tl:e machine in most common use was that for • sharpening table knives, but the principle of all was the . same; a 'difference of construction was required between themachines for sharpening knives and those for scissors. Mr. F. WILLIAMS. before the case went further, took an objection to the action, on the ground that there was a variance between the patent and the specification— .• the words in the patent being "a machine for sharpen .' log knives..sci.sors, razors, and other cutting instru : meets;" whereas, in the specification, the worsts "scis sors and razors" were omitted, and only knives and . 'other cutting instruments mentioned. He also objected • .teat the same machine would not answer for sharpening knives,*sciss , rs, and razors. The ATTORNILY GENERAL, NIr.'BROUGRASt s and Mr. Roche were heard in answer, and then - Lord TENTTRDIN observed, that it sometimes hap pened the inventors of very ingi mono patent machines Ipst the benefit of their patents by a defect in the spe cification. This was to be regretted; but still it was necessary that the specification she uhf be clear and • specific to support a patent right. Now this machine • was described in the patent as one adapted for the sharpening of knives, scissors, &c. but in the specifi cation it was assumed that the same instrument, made with double rollers, would answer both for knives and scissors; and there was nothing to indicate. that; for the purpose of sharpening scissors, it was necessary that one of the cylinders should be round and the other flat, smooth, and plain ; yet the evidence was. - that this latter form of the machine was necessary with respect to scissors, which would be destroyed by the use of the same form of instrument which answered for sharpen ' log knives; this he considered as a fatal defect,and the plaintiff must be called.—Plaintiff nonsuited. BOTTINOS V. FIRST AND ANOTRSR. .. Mr. EARLE stated that this was an action for compels station in damages for an illegal and excessive distress. The plaintiff resided at Chelsea. where his wife carried On the business of a dress-maker in a house belonging to Fishy. The rent was 281. per annum. The ground *Of complaint was, that the defendant bad distrained for more than was due to bim ; that even if the sum which - fie claimed (about 171) had been due to him, the distress which he took wasescessive, he having taken goods that were well worth 641. that the defendant had kept the goods tees long without using due diligence to sell to the best advantage ; that /I u thpht ies, the landlord's broker, ;nit in several :snicks of his own goods upon the premises along-with those of the plaintiff; that when the sale took place the plaintiff's goods were sold for about 191. and that most of the articles were bought in by the broker, to whom the auctioneer knocked down the article when ever he offered, without waiting for a higher bidding. When he should have proved these facts, he trusted the Jury would give the plaintiff ample compeosa - tiers. He had a document, however, which would base much formal proof: the plaintiff had brought his acticn in the Palace Court, and the defendants suffered judg. meat to go by default, which was an ado ission ors re cord that the verdict must be against theni. But they removed the action into thisCourt,where it was probable, they hoped, that the plaintiff was not in circumstances to proceed. John Churchill Hewlet produced the tecord from the Palace Court. Several witnesses were then examined, who said that the valuation put on the plaintiff's goods was too low, and that the auctioneer : t old them off in a careless and hurried manger; but the evidence hiled as to the cLarge of the landlord's having distraiucd for a greater .sum than was due. Mr. POLLOCIC (with whom was Mr: PLATT) called several witnesses, who swore that the valuation and sale were fair; that the plaintiff and his wife desired that a sale should take place, and that a great part of the goods did not belong to the plaintiff. Lord TENTERDIDI asked the plaintiff's Counsel whe ther he would consent to withdraw a Juror ? Mr. EARLS said, that he could not exercise his dis or von against the positive injunction of his client. He then addressed the Jury, and contended that the weight of the evidence was in favour of the plaintiff. The Jury found for the defendants. DEBTS OF HONOUR. Sir Godfrey Welptes' brought an action against a , . sporting Gradation, for the retoisry of 2.501. spa a bill of exchange. For the defence, Mr. Hicks, an attor• ney, proved that the'original claim was 3241.0 f which he bad paid 1241. when Sir Godfrey said that' his claim was ta a debt of honour," which ought to have been long since paid. The defence was, that this admission made the debt a gambling transaction, and, as such, u t to be recovered. Lord TENTERDIN was of opinion .that other debts, besides gambling ones, might be called . 6 debts of ho. nour," for instance, where the party had no security ; that admission, was, therefore, inconclusive. . . The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff. COURT OP COMMON PLEAS. Jana 6. Sittings after Raster Term, before Mr. Jostles Pas:. and a Common Jury. naive v. at►BSILL AND OTIMRS. This was an action of trespass. Mr. Sergeant BOMPAC and Mr. THSASIOZR conducted the plaintiff's case; Mr. Sergeant WILDS that of the defendants. The facts were these—Mr. Reeve is a tailor, and rented a house next door to Mrs. Turner, the step. mother of the defendant Bursill, of which that Lady was the owner. The defendant, Bursill, is abu cher, and resides with his mother. Same two years since a man named Lee left a bed in the care of the plaintiff, as at that time he had no occasion for it. On the 11th of last April he came about eleven at night for the bed, and proceeded, by leave of the plaintiff, to carry it away. He had not gone many yards when he was stopped by Bursill, given by him into the charge of a watchman, and the bed taken from him. Bursill then went into the plaintiff's house, con ducted himself with great violence, imputed the inten tion of taking away the furniture to prevent its seizure for rent due, and left two of his men in possession of the house. For this intrusion the present action was brought. 'the defence was, that the defendant'sinothec had al ways found it very difficult to get her rent from the plaintiff; that hearing the noise of removing something from his house, and seeing a man taking away this bed, and a quarter's rent being due, there was good reason to imagine be was attempting to defraud Mrs. Turner of her rent; that a broker had, in fact, been sent for by Mr. Bursill to distrain the goods at that time, but he not choosing to come, the men had been put in possessioh. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintif f —Damages, £2o—Costs, 40s. - WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, Jars 6. William Ford a young man of respectable appear ance, was indicted for having created a disturbance at the House of Commons. The prisoner was taken into custody in the lobby of the House, about ten days ago, when he was brandishing a new army regulation sword, attached to a navy belt; and he was also provided with a pair of pistols, which he exhibited to the Members as they were proceeding to attend their parliamentary duties, about five o'clock in the afternoon. It appeared, how ever, that the prisoner had not committed any act of violence. The unfortunate young man, whose intellects were evidently disordered, offered no explanation to the Court regarding his extraordinary proceedings, and under these circumstances the Chairman ordered him to be discharged, bat detained the weapons, which were given up to Lee, the High Constable. Ford quitted the Court, followed by a large mob. MATRIMONIAL JARS. Nary Gripps, a stout masculine woman, was iro dicted for an a‘sault on her husband, John Gripps, a general dealer in cabbages, onions, &c. in Covent-gar den market. The p►osecutor made out a very lamentsble sto►y of his wifc's v►olent conduct towards him, notwithstanding be did every thing in his pow.r to make her comfort• able, and bought her all the tic bits he could. The day she assaulted him he had bought her a nice beef steak, as delicate as a chicken, but that did not suit her ; and he then went out and bought her a tender mutton chop. but she did not like that; he then bought her a pint of halfsand.half, but she would not drink with him, and then he got her a Oust for herself, when she sluiced it all over h►m, and he gave her a bit of a tap, when she up with the knife and gave him a severe wound on Isis atm, and ever since he bad gone in danger of his life. Mrs. Gripps, in her defence, said that her husband . was ruining her family by gambling sighing ever went down but gambling ; he had even pawned her very petticoats and linen to raise money to gamble with. There were three ladies in the mai ket he bad taken a l►king to, but that was not sufficient; for he got a fourth. who was a wonderful favourite, and this was all done that he should get rid of his true and lawful wile —Verdict— oS Guilty.

Mr. FARItAvD o the coroner, appeared f the de fence, and Mr. BATTY for the township of Spotland, to which the woman belonged. Sarah Pilling, examined by Mr. BATTY—I became acquainted ',sub Thomas Buttes worth the last Bagslate eases, on the sd of July ; had no connexion with him that night; the first time was on the nicsy night after, on the side of the race-course; have stopped up with him one night at Scotch Johnnie' ; have bad intercourse with him seven or eight times. Cress examined by Mr. FARRANDThe first time was on nicht,' night in Bagslate race week; was de. livered on the 17th of March; 1 told a neighbour woman that 1 would swear it upon Thomas Butter wort!). Mr. FERRANDNOve have you not said many a time that it was Joseph Clegg's? Sarah Pilling—Yes, I have said it was J. Clegg'.; I hate told Fanny Pilling that I would swear it upon T. Butterworth, a mason; I know Betty Howard, and have told her so ; we had but one bed in the house at that ,time, but now we have two; my father, sister Jane, myself, and halt-brother slept in one bed ; I have sworn the child upon the light one; after the race week Thos. Butterworth came to see me every Sunday for 7 weeks together ; he came particularly on Ashworth Bushbear ing Sunday; I told Sarah Howard it was got in the Jewry Gate, and I told her it was Joseph Clegg's; told Fanny Piling it was Joseph Clegg ' s; I said so for fear of Butterwolths running away, and to plague old Clegg's wife, because she had set it out that I was with child by my father.

Mr. F. how ever, asked permission to call ore witness, which was granted. Sally Pilling examined by Mr.Ferrand—l live neigh bour to Sarah Pilling, but am nothing ;elated to her; have known her 17 years; 1 asked her it she was with child? and said, if it was so, Thomas Butterworth is the father of it. Alter the talk came out, she said it was Joseph Clegg's. Mr. FERRAND—Did not she tell you that Thomas Butterworth was a mason, and she thought it better to fatter it on him than taking a weaver ? • S. Pilling—Yes, she said Thomas Butterworth - was a mason, and she toought it was a better trade than being a weave: ; they (Sarah Pilling's f amily) bad only one bed' in the house for years. Mr. Collingwood, the Overseer of the Township of Spotland, then stated, that they had 20 large families in their Township who had but one beJ each, and the' same remark would apply with eqUat truth to the other townships in the parish. Pilling, the lather of Sarah Pilling—Gentlemen, I had my goods taken and sold, and the times have b. en so hard what could we get ? Mr. FZIRRAND—You have got something. Pilling-1 have got nought of yours. Mr. FARRAND—You have got something of your daughter !
