THE SUN,' LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1859. LAW INTE. THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.) PE TITION. - BUCKMASTER V. BUCKMASTER. THE DUCHIES OF CENTRAL ITALYAND THE SARDINIAN GOY BRNMENT. In taking the partnership accounts in this case a receiver was appointed, and on passing the receiver's accounts 10 per cent. was charged on the gross amount. Mr. Schomberg, for the petitioner, a military tailor, con tended that 10 per cent, only was chargeable on the nett profits, and not on the gross amount received and expended in conducting the business, which, according to half yearly accounts exhibited, amounted to about £60,000 yearly. Mr. Taylor opposed, on the ground that the larger the amount of the accounts examined, the greater was the trouble in passing the accounts, and the fee was payable on the amount, according to orders of Court in 1852 and 1857. Mr. Schomberg, in support of his argument, cited the following decided cases, viz. :—Wells v. Wails--4 De Gex, MacNaughten and Gordon's Reports. The Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices considered that 10 per cent. was payable on the nett profits of the partner ship business only after deducting the cost of carrying on the business, and ordered accordingly. The Lord Chancellor said some new rules would probably be made on the subject. Their lordships allowed the petitioner his costs. APPEALS. -SHAW V. JUGGINS.-JUGGINS V. JONES. Plainitff filed his bill in the first suit to take the executor's accounts in the administration of the estate of the late Mr. Juggins ; and the plaintiff in the second suit filed a bill to administer the estate. The question raised was purely a question of costs. Tne Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices, with consent of counsel, remitted to the Master in Chancery to take ac counts, with periodical rests, reserving the question of interest and:costs till the hearing of the cause, with liberty to apply. POLICE INT ELLIGENCE.-(7IIIS DAY. MA RLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE AGAINST A GENTLEMAN OF OBTAINING MONEY BT FALSE PRETENCES Alfred Moorhouse Tay lor, 23, described on the charge sheet as a gentleman, and who said he was the son of a cotton spinner at Adlington, Manchester, was charged before Mr. Bingham with ob taining money, by false pretences, of Mr. Alfred Biggs, cigar importer, of 1, Pall-Mall. From the evidence, which was very lengthy, it appeared that the prisoner had recently been a customer of the prosecutor, and in consequence of his believing that the prisoner was of good family, and of his repre sentations that he had an account at Messrs. Wood cocks' bank, Adlington, Manchester, he cashed a cheque for £lO for him, and subsequently a second—the first of which he paid to Mr. Sidney Frances, a merchant of Bishopsgate-street, and which was soon after returned pro tested ; he, therefore, kept the second cheque back. The answer returned by the bankers being that there were " No effects" and " Not known." The prisoner said that he was a respectable person, and that he believed at the time he gave the cheques there would be funds to meet them. He had received a letter from the bankers. Mr. Broughton read the letter, and said it stated that whatever money he liked to deposit with them could be paid through Messrs. Barclay. He had given two cheques, neither of which had been paid, and his deposit had not been made, and to give a cheque without having an account at the bank was a fraud. The prisoner said he had studied at the University Col lege for a doctor, and was about to enter the cotton trade. Bruce, 88 C, said, on taking prisoner into custody he found on him a cheque on Robarts, Curtis, and Co. for £5, and a writ at the suit of John Foster Hodges. The prosecutor said he believed he should be able to bring forward other charges. The prisoner was then remanded, Mr. Broughton stating that he would take his own bail in £4O and two in £2O. THAMES. STRIPPING HOUSES OF LEAD.—John M'Dermott, aged 16, and Eliza M'Dermott, his mother, 45, were brought be fore Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing 1 cwt. of sheet-lead from the roofs of two houses in Salter's-alley, St. George in-the-East. The prisoners lived at No. 5, Salter's-alley, and it was proved that on two occasions the male prisoner put a table in the yard behind his dwelling, placed a tub on the top of the table, and a few boards on that, and ma naged to ascend to the roofs of the houses No. 5 and 6, Salter's-alley, and strip them of the lead and lead-piping, which he threw into a dust bin, and afterwards carried away. The houses were greatly damaged by the rain coming through the roofs, and this led to an examination, and it was ascertained that the lead had been removed. The robbery was clearly brought home to the male prisoner, and he pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to four months' imprisonment and hard labour. There was zio material evidence affecting the woman, and she was discharged. MORE LEAD STEALING.—John Sale, aged 43, a fish vendor, William Moss, 17, labourer, employed in the navigation of barges, and William Lemon, 24, were brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing 2 cwt. and 3 qrs. of sheet lead, the property of Messrs. Charrington, Head, and Co., brewers, from the Five Bells, public-house, Old Ford, Bow. It appeared from the eviden ce th at the whole o f th e l ead was stripped off the public-h ouse on Tuesday night last, o r early on Wednesday morning. The prisoners Sale and ,emon were at the house on Tuesday night, called for a pot of beer, and with the consent of the land lord, Mr. George Willis, took the pot with them. The two men were seen near the premises of Mr. Willis early on Wednesday morning. Inspector Kenessey, of the K division, and a constable named Tuckett, 170 K, subse quently traced the lead to a h ouse, No. 1, Old Ford-lane, on the banks of the rive r L ea. It was buried in rubbish. Sale and M oss lived in th e h ouse, and were taken into cus tody. L emon , w h o was dwelling at No. 4, Old Ford lane, was subsequently apprehended. In the course of the in vestigation Mr. Selfe asked the lad, Moss, if he would tell the truth, and make a clean breast far himself. He said he would, and was discharged and sworn. He said he was called up on Wednesday morning by Sale and Lemon to assist them in removing the stolen lead, and it was con veyed in his barge from the Five Bells to the back of the )use, No. 1, Old Ford-lane, and there concealed. Mr. Selfe directed Inspector Kenessey to complete the case oy Friday next, and remanded Sale and Lemon until that day. The following correspondence respecting the alleged annexation of the Duchies of Central Italy by the Sardinian Government, was published yes terday as a Parliamentary paper : Lord J. Russell to Sir J. Hudson. (Extract.) Foreign-office, June 22, 1859. The Marquis d'A zeg li o h as read to me two de spatches, signed Minghetti. The first, relates to the affairs of Lombardy, the second to those of Parma and Modena. Both are intended to justify the King of Sardinia in all that he has done in rela tion to those States. I asked the Marquis d'Azeglio whether be had any question to ask me in relation to these despatches. He said he was instructed to do so. It is therefore, sufficient to remark that everything done at present must be considered as provisional. A battle on the Mincio might enable the allies to advance to the Tagliamenta, or might drive them back to the Ticino. As her Majesty has not taken any part in the present war, it would be premature to decide grave questions of public law on tho present state of possession. The same observation applies to Tuscany and the Legations. All that is to be desired for the present is that where the previous Government has been with drawn, or has been overthrown, an authority capable of maintaining order, and of making itself respected, may, be immediately constituted. It would be lamentable to see the disorders of 1848-9 repeated in 1859. The will of the Italian people, the fortune of war, and finally an European treaty, must, in the last resort, settle the territorial ar rangements and rights of sovereignty in Northern and Central Italy. Sir J. Hudson to Lord J. Russell. (Received June 28.) Turin, June 25 1859. My Lord,--I have the ho nour to report , to your lordship that the Sardinian Government have addressed a circular letter to the Ministers, go vernors, and extraordinary commissioners of the King, to the,following effect :—The King's Govern ment have created, at the department for foreign affairs, a temporary office for the transaction of business arising out of the relations which have sprung up from the annexation to, or protection by, Sardinia of Italian provinces during the present war. The Government had to deal with states of Italy which heretofore had laws and an adminis tration of their own ; of these states some are simply protected by Sardinia, others are annexed to her. With regard to the latter, this new office will prepare the way for the regular administration of their affairs, and will expedite their business by transacting it with persons conversant with their laws and customs, instead of confiding them to the Sardinian Ministries, where different rules end regulations obtain. The Sardinian Government, therefore, have determined to invest 'their local governors with exceptional powers, in order that the current business of each province may be car ried on without delay on the spot; and with regard to those points upon which the respective governors may deem it advisable to consult the home Govern ment, their correspondence is to be addressed to the office now established ; and as, by degrees, unifor mity in the conduct of affairs shall be established between the parent state and the province annexed, the eonduct of those affairs will gradually be trans ferred to the central departments of the general government.—l have, &c., (Signed) ' J. HUDSON. Lord J. Russell to Sir I. Hudson. Foreign-office, June 28, 1859. Sir,—l have received and laid before the Queen your despatches to that of the 25th instant inclu sive. With reference to the last number of those despatches, giving a summary of a circular issued by the Sardinian Government announcing to their authorities that they " have created, at the Depart ment for Foreig n Affairs, a te m p orary o ff i ce for the transaction of business arising out of the relations which have sprung up from the annexation to, or protection by, Sardinia of Italian provinces during the present war," I have to state to you that her Majesty's Government. readily admit the ex pediency of uniting the efforts of those engaged in war with Austria, either by the regular action of the respective sovereigns or the sponta neous movement of the inhabitants, under one common direction. But with regard to the perma nent annexation to Sardinia of states hitherto obey ing their separate sovereigns, her Majesty's Go vernment have adopted a line of conduct which they believe to be in conformity with the law of nations. Her Majesty's Government, as I stated to you in my despatch of the 22d inst., consider that everything done at present must be considered as provisional ; and that although it may be neces . sary to make arrangements for the temperary main tenance of order in countries where the previous government has been withdrawn, or has been over thrown, yet the will of the people, the fortune of war, and finally a European treaty, must, in the last resort, settle the territorial arrangements and rights of sovereignty in Northern and Central Italy. Her Majesty's Government are happy to find that the view they have taken of tsis matter is shared by the Government of the Emperor of the French, and confirmed by the declaration in the Moniteur of the 24th inst., announcing that it has been erroneously inferred, from the fact of the dic tatorship having been offered to the King of Sar dinia from all quarters of Italy, that Sardinia, with out consulting either the wishes of the people or the great powers, reckons, by the support of the arms of France, on uniting the whole of Italy in a single state; but that such dictatorship is a purely temporary power, which while uniting under a single authority the common forces, has the advantage of in no wise prejudging future combination. From the language of Baron Brunnow I infer that such is likewise the view taken of the matter by the Russian Government. You will read this despatch to Count Cavour, but will not furnish his Excel lency with a copy of it.—l am, &c., (Signed) J. RUSSELL. A translation of the despatch from Conn Cavour relative to the neutrality of Parma, in reply to the Earl of Malmesbury's despatch to Sir J. Hudson, dated June 7, 1859, which has already appeared in our columns, was also published yesterday morning 'ANQUET TO MR. CHARLES KEAN. TO TIIE EDITOR OP TILE SUN SIR,—In your report of the banquet, you state "The next toast was the Prince Consort, Prince of Wales and the rest of the Royal Family.'

The weather was threatening at the commencement, torrents of rain having fallen during the night, but the day proved fine, and there was an unusually large attendance of fashionables on the ground. The different races were well contested, AN ACT OF GALLANTRY; In the files of British American papers which have reached us we find the following account of an action worthy of the name of Cochrane. The hero of it, the Hon. Ernest Cochrane, is youngest son of the Earl of Dundonald. He distinguished himself greatly by his bravery in the Crimea, by his gallant daring as aide-de-camp of Sir H. Jones, in the attack on Sebastopol, and by saving the lives of two persons he won his lieutenant's rank. We subjoin the account of the Halifax newspaper, which shows that he possesses all that chivalrous courage which has made the names of his father and mother historical : • " MELANCHOLY EVENT.--In common with the whole community we deeply regreat the sad event which occurred on Tuesday, June 29, casting a deep g,loom over our city—the sudden and untimely death of Mr. John H. M‘Nab. As our readers are aware, amongst_the celebrations in honour of the Queen's coronation, a yacht race was appointed to take place at 12 o'clock—an incident in the day's rejoicings that was looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure by a large number of our citizens. The race started in fine style, the weather being consi dered particr'larly favourable • but scarcely fiv e minutes elap se d w h en one of the boats, struck by a sudden squall, was seen to capsize, and sink almost immediately. The contest was instantly abandoned, and the different yachts, as well as all other boats in the vicinity, hastened to the scene of the disaster. Those in Mr. John Wallace's boat, on coming up, shoved off their boom to the first person they neared, who saved himself by clinging to it; at the same moment a rope was thrown to another young man, who grasped it and was hauled in. The two young men thus saved were midshipmen belonging to the Indus. Another gentleman, Mr. Hardinge Stewart, of the Commissariat Department, was picked up, greatly exhausted, by M r . Fi s h w i e k, w h o h a p pene d to be near in a small boat. While this was taking place, Mr. S. A. White's boat also reached the scene, and by the exertions of Mr. White and Mr. Jacob Miller the remaining two of the five who were on board the yacht when she was struck, were taken out of the water. These were the lamented deceased, Mr. N'Nab, and the Hon. Ernest G. L. Cochrane (seri of the Earl of Dundonald), whose noble and heroic conduct throughout the affair is the theme of everybody's praise and admiration. On finding that the boat was sinking, he first with great pre sence of mind called upon his companions to clear themselves from the rigging, and then asked if theyall could s w i m . M r. M 'N ab answered that he could not. ' Then keep by me,' said Mr. Cochrane, ' and I will save you.' Full ten minutes elapsed before assistance reached them, during all which time, and though all but exhausted himself, he never let go his charge. When the boat reached them the persons in her could see nothing of Mr. M'Nab, and it was only on hauling in Mr. Cochrane, then in an insensible state, that they found he still retained a firm hold of his companion, although unfortunately he was unable to keep his head out of the water. Mr. M'Nab was taken on board the Indus, and every effort made by Dr. Donville and other medical gentlemen to restore animation, but all tuo late--the vital spark had fled. He was a universal favourite, and his loss will be long felt and deplored by his fellow-townsmen. With his bereaved family we sincerely sympathise. It is impossible to listen without emotion to the accounts of Lieutenant Cochrane's noble conduct by those who witnessed it, and the extent to which he risked his own life in attempting to save another's ; and we believe that nothing would more gratify numbers of our citizens than to have the opportunity of manifesting their feelings in the only way possible, by contributing towards a testimonial of a suitable character to mark their appreciation of such an ac of real heroism." ii 4 1221 611 61i THUNDERSTORMS. In Yorkshire and Lancashire, in common with many other parts of the country, violent thunder storms have occu rre d thi s Week. Y The lightning was very vivid, and was accompanied with heavy falls . of rain and hail, the latter •in many instances being little less than showers of masses of ice,. the hail stones being so large tied numerous. SeVeral cattle and sleep are reported to have been killed, and one or two human beings. The destruction of the grow ing crops, windows, and other property is immense. At Hemsworth, near Wakefield, on Monday even ing, the hailstones, or rather small blocks of ice, were of a peculiar shape, and from two to three inches in length. Every pane of glass in the man sion of Major Vincent, at Hemsworth, Lane- Ends, was more or less broken. Mrs. Vincent says she could compare the commencement of the storm to nothing but a vast avalanche, destroying everything in its way. At Painthorpe and Chapelthorpe, also near Wakefield, the ground was covered with large hailstones the morning after the storm, and in both places numbers of windows were shattered.. At Wakefield much damage was done by the rain as well as the hail, many windows being broken and dwelling-houses inundated. At York on Monday night and Tuesday morning the storm was very severe, and an agricultural labourer named Low ther, residing at Barnsby, while proceeding to work, was struck with the electric fluid, and expired directly. A companion with whom he was walking had his clothes burnt, but received no further in jury. Considerable damage was done in the neigh bourhood to houses, &c. At Pontefract on Monday the storm wAs accompanied by a terrific fall of, hail, and a great number of windows were broken- 7 - scarcely a hou se on one s id e o f t h e town escaping. The storm lasted an hour, and several cornfields and other crops were literally cut up. At Knaresborough the storm was terrific. The electric fluid passed down the chimney of Mrs. Shann's house, in High Bond-end, and through the kitchen roof. In its course it struck Mrs. Shann's son, but. did no mor e than stun him. Th e houses .in. two or three : -places were inundated, but the storm was not attended with any fatal result. The crops in the dis trict have not suffered so Much as was anticipated. At Bramhope and Otley the storm raged with great fury, but happily without doing much damage. At Bramhope the house of Mr. S. Cawthrees was en tered by the lightning,the glass of the clock broken and one of the daughters struck down insensible. She was restored, however, in a short time. At Holmfirth, though the storm was very severe, no serious damage was done, save the destruction of several thousand squares of glass in the town and at Thongs-bridge, Netherthong, Cliff, and other places. At Doncaster the storm was not so severe, and passed over without doing much damage. At Huddersfield the storm, with the exception of a " down-pour" of rain, was not much felt. At Hill house a house was struck, but received little injury. At Honley a furious hailstorm broke many hundred squares of glass. At Kirkburton many houses were flooded,nn d the thunder was loud and continuous, but the damage done, however, was trifling. All around the suburbs of Huddersfield the glaziers were reaping a rich harvest. Around Sna:th the' hailstones were larger than hen's eggs, and win dows were broken everywhere. At Melton the storm continued without intermission from 6 in the evening to between 3 and 4 next morning. Beyond the death of a few sheep and the destruction of some trees, no more serious accident from the lightning occurred. At Oldham, Middleton, St. Helen's, and Warrington the destruction of glass has been immense. At Warrington alone it is said 50,000 squares of glass have been broken by the hailstones, some of which were four inches in circumference, and at- Haslingden a- woman was killed by the lightning. At Leeds there was a heavy fall or rain on Wednesday night with thunder and lightning, and some damage was done by the flooding of several dwelling-houses, warehouses, and other places. The same evening there was a second heavy storm at Wakefield, by which the low-lying portion of the town was sub ject to immense damage from the accumulation of water. All the lower apartments of the houses were flooded to the extent of some five or six feet, and the inhabitants had to take refuge in the upper storeys. When the usual service was concluded in St. Mary's Chantry the clergyman and congregation found their egress stopped by a swollen stream of water. They were kept prisoners in the chapel for some hours, and on a partial subsidence of the tempest had to be con veyed away in cabs. In Back-lane 15 yards of a wall, eight feet high, which formed the northern boundary of the Unitarian Chapel, was swept away by the flood, which broke open the schoolroom-doors in its progress, choking up and destroying the in terior. At Cheviot-park, the residence of Sir Lionel Pilkington, the High Sheriff of Yorkshire, all the windows and a grea t d ea l o f t h e valuable furniture were utterly destroyed. Sir Lionel estimates the damage to his house and crops at £6OO. Mr. Ibbot son, one of Sir Lionel's tenants, had 30 acres of splendid wheat utterly ruined, and estimates his loss at £BOO. Mr. Richardson, of Woodthorpe, sustained damage to the extent of £300; and at Walton £l,OOO will barely cover the loss sustained by Mr. Charles Coldwell. Mr. Ellis, of the sam e place, has also had hi s crops damaged to the extent of £3OO or £4OO. Yesterday (Friday) afternoon there was a heavy fall of rain at Leeds, with some lightning and thunder. WOKINGHAM.—It is now nearly 20 . years since the neighbourhood of this town was visited with such an awful storm of thunder, lightning, and hail as occurred on the afternoon of Wednesday, tie 20th inst. The atmosphere had been highly charged with electricity for several days previously, and while most people expected a storm, no one ima gined there was in reserve such an awful fury of the elements as the inhabitants had to experience on the day in question. In the morning the clouds were thick and heavy, and the tenlaerature ap proached some what that which people have to ex perience in the East Indies. It was about 2 o'clock in the afternoon when the rumbling of thunder was heard, and the storm slowly approached the town. The lightning was continuous and vivid, and the rain for half an hour fell in torrents deluging th e streets, and ca rr yi ng a l most everything before it. Hail accompanied the storm, but it was not of such • strength as to do anything but trifling damage in the town. In a district a few miles hence, and in a direc tion from south-west to east, for the distance of several miles, the storm exceeded in violence that of the year 1840, when a large breadth of agricul tural produce was laid prostrate and most seriously injured. The storm was not one of ordinary hail, but of large'rough pieces of ice, and it fell with unabated fury tor the space of about half an hour. Field after field of corn, ready for the sickle, and in some of which reaping had already been begun and men were busy at work, has been knocked down. Men reaping were glad to hasten away and find shelter in the nearest hovel or shed from fo r their violence of the tempest, trembling even their own safety. The inmates of houses i were alarmed with the nois e o f c r a s hi ng glass, and n a ice,little time which laalyl several arund inches co kbe upon but From the parish of Bi n fi e ld towards Maidenh ea d one the ground.s of Thicket the storm app ears to have been m ore par ticularly heavy and severe . It i s impossibl e t o give seemed anything like an ad equa t e id e a o f th e m i sc hi ef done. Conservatories have been fearf u lly smashed, and nothing but the framework remains ; and private houses, from the numerous broken windows in the residences] of the gentry and farmers, present the appearance of having been riddled by musketry. The house of the clergyman of the parish of Hurst has most of the windows broken ; house after house in the same locality has been in the same proportion damaged. At the house of one gentleman, a magis trate of the county, the damage to the conserva tory and mansion cannot be estimated at a less sum than between £2OO and £3OO. On one farm at Hmst nearlya dozen gallinas were killed by the h were ail ; d a i n s e d o v i e n r e a d n o b t y h e a r g p a l m a e e e k e a e p f e e r w to y o h u e n g s orabbits injured th a t they were unable to move. Geese, too, were found to be greatly bruised, and their wings were nearly broken by the large pieces of ice which fell in the storm. The destruction of corn exceeds all present computation, the grain of wheat, barley, and oats appearing to be stripped from the stalks, and fields so vastly cut about that the expense of cutting the crop now standing must greatly exceed the value of the corn that can be hereafter obtained from threshing. The farmers are great sufferers, unless they are secured by a new kind of insurance that has sprung up in the last few years ; but of this nothing is yet known. It is the general belief that the storm in this district ex ceedeo in violence a n d th e m i sc hi e f d one th a t w hi c h so greatly al a r me d t h e peop l e h ere as far back as the year 1839 or 1840. SERIOUS CHARGE OF SHOOTING AT A GAME KEEPER.—About half-past five &clock on Sunday mowing last, John Donaldson, head-gamekeeper to the Winger worth estate, and a tenter named Ranger, were out watch ing, when they heard a shot fired in Speight-hill wood, into which they entered and saw a man who proved to be Samuel Turner, of Brampton, ironstone miner, and an other person , _ run into a clover field. Donaldson pursued and overtook Turner, who threatened that if he approached g o un f the his gun any nearer he would shoot him. Notw ithtstanding this threat Donaldson made towards Turne -, who re-comm e n ce d running. - Donaldson again approached near to hi m , w h en he turned round and said, "If you co me any further I'll shoulder; upon uPon fortunately s hoot you on the spot." Donaldson m a d e a d as h at Tut,- this ner Donaldson, w b en thela s t t t ru er c r k ai t s n e e d e h n i d s diverted its course. The trigger was pulled instantly and the shot went off, just cam-.l,in • escaping the groin of the keeper. Ranger then came up, and Turner was secured. The other man effected his escap e.

STATE OF THE THAMES.—At the meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works, yesterday, a report was pre sented by Professor Miller, which stated that, notwith standing the continued drought, the river had not been so offensive as it was last year, which he attributed to the use of deodorising igents. It also stated that a report had been received from the surgeons of the Dreadnought hospital ship, which stated that although the river was very un pleasant, yet no ill effects had arisen to those on board, either sick or healthy. A report was also referred to from Dr. Guy, the medical supenntendent of Milbank prison, not s statinguffered that although th ere were 1000 inmates, they had in any appreciable degree from the state of the river. TWIN BROTHERS DROWNED WHILE BATHING.— On Sunday last a most melancholy accident occurred at Dunbrody, near Campile, in this county, 'whereby two pro mising young men, twin brothers, lost their lives. It appears that the brothers, John and Anthony Lynagh, with a num ber of other youths, were bathing in the river, when one of them getting beyond his depth, was observed to be sinking, and in danger of being drowned; his brother imme diately rushed towards him with the intention of rendering assistance, but being unable to swim he also got beyond his depth, and both brothers sank to rise no more.— Wexford Congitution.

The men are under an engagement to work from month to month, and to give and take a month s notice before leaving their employment, but because of a briskness in the steam coal trade the men all struck with out giving an hour's notice, with a view to force the ma- , - ters to give the advance. Eight of the more active among the men 'were committed two months each, to gaol on Thursday, a n d other fourwere taken into custody in the justice-r oom at North Shields, and remanded. The strike is an illu s t rat i on of the tyranny of numbers. The more in telligent of th e men b efore the Bench stated that they broke at their contract i n v i o l at i on of their better sense, but that they had to submit to the majority.
