Mr. Ham. applied for an injunction in this case, to rtetraitt the Defendant from selling, making, vending, Of otherwise disposing of certain Axletrees, or Wheel boxes, similar in construction to those of the Plaintiff, and also to restrain hint, the Defendant, from using on ttose Azletrees made by him, the words •• Coiling.," or •• Cuilinge's Patent." The motion was supported affidat it on the pats of Messrs. J. and C. CoHinge, wi.ich stated the patent to have been granted in 179.2, and which consequently some time since expired. With respect to tbat part of the prayer of the Petition which re4ated to the restraining the Defendant from selli►►g Asletrees similar to those of the Plaintiff, he was aware %Mt that must be abandoned ; but still be had a right to call on the Court to restrain the Defendant from *sing the name of the Plaintiff on those Wheels or Axietrees of his own manufacture. The VICE-CHANLELLOR said, he was at first disin *lined to grant the Injunction ; but when he took into View that this was not an ex-parte application, the leefendaet having been served with notice that the station would be made, and also that be had not brought proper to appear, he felt there were strong grounds to consider that the whole of the allegations Anne founded in fact. He therefore granted the In .Nnetion as COURT OF KING'S lINNCII.—Juse 7. Rani P. Miff. This el as an action fur work and labour. 'the SOLICITOII-ONNERAL and 201 r.

The CNIZIP Jusvics, i■ charging the Jury, ex pressed a hope that a Bill would ere long, be brought into Parliament, to render it none, essary iu all such cases, for the Hundred to litigate the claims of persons so injured, considering that the expeuce of a law-suit frequently exceeded the amount of damages claimed.

The courtship went M with every prospect of a nt:ion, ma a few months Ailey, when the defendant broke it off, on pretence that the lady had wade certain confessions, which rendered matrimony on his part imprudent. As she war not conscious of any misconduct, ant! hail suf fered much by having her prospects of comfort in life destroyed, she brought Mt *Mom The letters which passed betimes the parties were quite lodger, and those who heard them were histisly amused. The following are some extracts which *re read from the defendant's letters verbatim, but not literati," ; (we do not affect to give the orthography M the original :)—The first was dated the Ifith of Felt. 1819, DEAR Miss,-1 take the liberty armee more writing. of which intrusion I hope you will excuse; and most beg another favour, that is by keep this letter to your self, as the sentiments of my heart I am about to open, prompt by the affections of nature for you alone. You will say my affection is soon gained, as it fell on you after knowing you such a short time ; but, dear Miss, believe me it is not soon as you think ; for 1 know young ladies for length of time, and my affection has never fell on theist as it has on you; for your charms. dear Miss, is enough to gain love and affection of any young gentle man; for 1 tio declare, the first hour 1 saw you, you gained my strongest love and affection, and was satisfied in toy own mind you would make me a happy wife : • • • • • dear Miss, I do firmly and do solemnly declare that you gained my greatest affettien that ever a titan could have for a female. 1 have been much grieved at not having a half-hour intercourse with yen that I might bad the gratification of acknowledging my affections to you he-1 fore present moment. dear Miss, you say it is very far from your wish to deceive any person, particular on this subject. 1 feel myself extremely glad and happy yen think it such a tender part; for to trifle with affection is like touching the vital veins with a slurp instrument, of which will soon prove death if not stopped in time : • • • • • • • Dear Miss, I have now taken up my pea again to finish this letter with eyes free from tears, which was not the ease when I left it.

I hope I shall have the pleasure of ening you on Wednesday or Thursday next. I minima your affec tionate lover, till death, " Too. littantx." The defence was, that the plaintiff stated she had married before the defendant's courtship, with a mid shipman. There weft alto charges of irregadarity of conduct, which rendered her unit, in the opinion of the defendant, to heroine his partner through life. It was however clear, under all the circumstances, that the - character of the plaintiff stood fair, end the Jury gave her a verdict of HAM damages. poll tieing by hand-hills, that ha taking the ballot, ludividnels retitled to vote to a plurality of votes, under Mr. Sturges Bourne's Act, would be allowed such a pia. rality; and on the other hand a protect against the admission of any bat single votes was given in, and entered upon the minutes of the vestry. Some days after the election, a vestry was held to confirm the same; and after it had been confirmed, Messrs. Blossom, Tristram, and Chapman offered themselves to the of to he sworn is, when it was stated that aeaysat against their admission hail been entered on the part of Messrs. Richter, 'fwigg i Oreig, and Ashley, parish ioners; and the bearing this day was the effect of the caveat. The Learned Counsel in support of the caveat con tended, that the gentlemen who offered themselves to be sworn were not duly elected. He said that the election utast either be under some !oral act, under Stnrges Bourne's Act, Wunder some special cus tom; that in this case no local act was relied upon ; that by Mr. Sturges Bourne's Act three day's notice, beginning on Sunday, was required for the holding of a Vestry, which had not been complied with at the election ; but tl it, in fact, the vestry was held under the special coition of the parish ; that meetings held under special elisions were expremily excluded from the operation of Mr. Sturges Bourne's Act, by which alone the plurality of votes was given ; and the election being conducted with the admission of such votes was, therefore, had. lie submitted, however, that this Court could nut decide upon the legality or illegality of the election, the office of Chorchwardeo being a temporal one, and that the Court therefore ought to wait antil a mandamus Issued fr.int the Conrt of King's Bench. The Learned Counsel coeiclitded by praying, that the official would nut swear in the pAr ties offering thetnselres to be sworn. The Judge said, the question for Mot to decide was a very one. here it a; ;mired that there hail been an eleztion of Churchwardens, and it was held at the usual time, and indeed on the very day pointed out in the rattans. lie w..s ca.ted upon to swear in the persons so elected, and if he refused to day, a Mandamus might issue to compel him to do so to-ntoerow ; therefore, why should he refuse? The persons elected were present and offered to take the oath, and no other parties offered to to s o. He should therefore, admit them ; bat he begged it to be understood, that in so doing, be ilia not presume or pretend to decide any thing on the legality of the eleezion.• this other at present was only ministerial. to swear in the persons regularly presented to him as Churchwardens. ?be Learned otficial therefore proceeded to swear is the parties named as Churchwardens for the parish, fur the current year. , mornisg, . gable-wall __ Theatre , gave way, and, felling on the roof of as adjoinieg hoe s forted apart of it, together with a Firth's dr W a d. room noon, sod all that intervened, down to the khets ei; fi•or, rather below the level of the street.
