COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. SATORDAY, MAY 1. BREACH OF CONTRACT BY A COACH FItOPRIETOR. BARCLAY v. 'loan. This was an action brought by Mr. Barclay, a gentleman of reapeerability, to recover from the defend:Am 121. 13s. Rd. teeing she amount of expenses incurred in unloving his family from itastings to London. The facts of the case were these:—ln the month of August last. Mr. Barclay and his faultily, consisting of three adults and dam children, were upon a visit at Hastings. flaying detennioal to return to London on Friday, the _sth of that month. he sent his mother inlaw to the office of the defend ant, who was a proprietor of the Hastings coach. to secure places. The Lady proceedsal to the ollica, and saw the book keeper, of whom she bepoke the coach, and paid the usual de posit. She particularly specified the day. and th e hook-keep e r said, '• it was all right. " On Wednesday, the 25th, a person called at Mr. Barclay's for his luggage, but was of course told, that as the family slid not intend going until the nstli, it was unnecesscry to send the luggage so soon. Thus matters rested till the Friday, when the coach departed without die intended pa , engers, and Mr. Barclay and his family were left behin& An expination was demanded, when it was said t h trc hail been a oil-take. As, however. Mr. Barclay could not remain at Has without considerable person;.) inconvenience, and its he was nut disposed to incur this, in order to indulge the negligence of the defendant, he sent for a post-coach, and in this manner Fa. creded to I.ontion. For the amount of the expenses thus incur red, the present action was brought. On the pan of the defendant, it was contended that the mis take had originated nn the pail of Mr. Barclay, and not with the servants of the defendant. To prove this, the book-keeper and one of his assistants were called. who swore that Mrs. Bar clay had bespoke the places for Wednesday, and not for Friday, and that when the entry wits made, it was read over to her, and she :omitted to its correclaess. This, however, was negatived by the fact of M rs . S m i t h, one o f the. prrtners of the efendant, having admitted that the disappointineat area from mistake, and to this was added the additional circumstance of a formal tender i f a post-chaise ha , ir.g been made by the dtfunkt.t, at the hense in which Mr. Barclay had resides', subsequent w bis r. epartnre.

IRISH PAVPSI:S AND THIS NEW POOll Acr.--An apphemon was made to the inagi>.r.ne, W. L. Hauer's, Ls.i. by 111. Bodkin, one 01 the o%vrs,fers of LOr pariso of Clerktowt:ll, under Mr. Sturges lICW Act lur atnetolios the Poor laws. A wreichecl•looking Irish woman, and three young childien, without shoes rw stockings, and almist naked, were brought into the office by the beadle. Upon exa mination by the worthy magistrate, it appeared that the husband of the pauper, having been unable his procure uork, bad some note since deserted his faintly. and that although tiny bail lied in this country upwards of 20 years, and that all the children were born in the par'sh, Ili/legal settlement had beets obtained : by the new act, therefore, they were liable to he immediately sent to Ireland as vagrants. Mr. bodkin proceeded to remark upon the cruelty of the provisions of this act, winch for the first time in this country regarded poverty as a crime. Magnuate —Sir, woatever opinion may be enter tained upon this act, I have no discretion; if you de mand it, I am ready to grant the older. Mr.l3udkitt I do not demand it, but I do feel myself most empleasanily situated. Whilst other Lon don parishes arc avalling themselves of the powets of this art, if ore's abstain from doing so, • the natural con seitisenee will be to attract tutus the whole oldie burden. The duty of an oversee: now calls upon us to do that %%web every man's feelings must surely most strongly condemn. My only object in bringing these miserable objects before you is to arouse the public to a sense of the inhumanity and impulicy of the act. I cannot indeed bring myself so believe it will be lung sutured to remain in three, or that the numerous persons of rank and influence iii the metro; ohs, connected with Ireland, can refrain from an eittleat our to effect s h ine immediate qualification of this clause. The poor woman wept bitterly at the idea of being sent u slate upon the coast 01 Ireland, whrre she seas now alio d ,rifhr unknown, and expressed the utmost gratitude on tieing inforitivi it would not be the riot.. It appeared to us Inc magistrates were strongly impressed %snit tile severity of tilts enactment, and Air.
