THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 7, 1858, LAW INTELLIGENCE.-( THIS DA I':) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.) PETITION BY ORDER.-VVEY V. CHAPLIN. The contention in this case wai whether the court had a right to correct a mistake in the enrolment of an order, by the clerk, as to costs. Their lordships corrected the n.der by inserting in the order that the plaintiff was entitled to costs. ROLLS COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.) HUMPHRY V. OLVII-JUDGME NT. His Honour, the Master of' the Rolls, in delivering judgment, said—The question in this case is whether the appointment made by Mrs. Wd). a lady now deceased, is a valid appointmont—a bona fide appointment--or made in defraud of the powers which she had a right to exercise under her husband's. will. In 1822 they had £914 14s. and 11(1 Three per Cent. Con sols, and dividends on stock in the bank. Mr. Webbassigned all these to her for her life for her use, with power of ap pointment, and to any children he might leave at his death. In 1847 her husbard died. In June, 1852, the defendant married Sophia, one of the daughters. Mrs. Webb, on the 17th August, 1853, by deed of appointment, gave £3OO out of the Three per Cent. Consols for the separate use of this lady, 'Mrs. Sophia Olvin This was said to be for the benefit of Mrs. Webb, the appointor, who wanted to borrow money upon it and not for the benefit of Mrs. Olvin, the appointee. After considering the oral and documentary evidence produced, his Honour was of opinion that the appointment was a bona fide vaia appointment in favour of the late Mrs. Sophia Olvin. His Honour made the usual declaration sustaining the deed of appointment, ordered an account to be taken, and dismissed the bill, which asked to set aside the deed, wit ti. costs. • COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Mr. Baron Martin and a Special Jury.) EVANS V. EVANS AND ROBINSON. The case for the petitioner closed shortly before two o'clock, when Mr. Edward James opened the defence. The first witness called was a lady named Ormsby,formerly living at Cheltenham. She stated that in 1845 she was positive she never gave a ball at her house in Lansdowne-terrace. Her mother dying about the time stated was the reason that made her remember. This is the ball at which it has been sworn Mr. Robinson left in a fly in company with Miss Carrington. The case will not conclude before to-morrow. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulbourn.) 1 IN RE DAVIDSON AND GORDON. To-day was appointed for the adjourned sitting for con sideration of the certificate of these bankrupts, and several witnesses were called to speak to various transactions with the bankrupts. The first witness was Mr. Edwards, of Mincing-lane, colonial broker, who deposed to dealings with the bank rupts on the 17th July, 18,51, with respect to some speller warrants, when Gordon applied for an advance on some spelter warrants, and he agreed to advance £4,2so—the spelter being of the value of about £s,2oo—the next day, and it was proposed that the advance should be made to Cole Brothers, which was agreed to, and witness accepted Cole's drafts. Witness afterwards sent his clerk to Hargan's wharf when it was ascertained that there was a stoppage on the spelter. Witness saw Gordon about two hours after at Cole's, and told him that there was some irregularity in the transaction, and unless it was settled he (witness) would take Gordon and Davidson to the Mansion-house. Gordon said that witness had known him several years, and he (witness) might depend that the matter should be set straight the next day, and witness took his word. Witness seldom saw Davidson, Witness's evidence chiefly went to show that there had been irregularities in the transaction, but that the amount advanced had been repaid, and that the transaction did not destroy the confidence between himself and Gordon, and that extensive transactions had taken place—he could not say to what amount, but varying in the year—£2B,ooo one year, £40,000 'perhaps another. He could not say but that the stoppage was for freight. He at the time considered that Gordon was only taking part in the transaction for the sake of dividing the commission, and witness gave him a cheque for the amount, Several other witnesses were examined, and the case is not likely to be terminated to-day. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque.) IN RE HOWES. The bankrupt was described as of the White Horse Inn, Uxbridge, and to-day came up for his certificate. The balance-sheet by Mr. March, Basinghall-street, shows—Debtor to creditor, unsecured, £3,153 1 ls. ; to ditto holding security, £2,287; profits, £682; surplus capital, July, 1856, £221. The assets were—good debts, £63 4s. ; doubtful, £34 10s. ; property, £366 ; ditto in the hands of creditors, £3,000 ; losses, £1,352, chiefly on the sale of pro perty mortgaged, houses, 'busses, flys, &c. Mr. Pook, for the assignees, did not oppose, and his Honour granted a certificate of the second class. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) OMNIBUS NURSING-WET AND DRY NURSES--.GRAY V. MACNAMARA. This was a summons for damages sustained by plaintiff's phaeton from one of defendant's omnibuses. The evidence was, as usual, conftietory, and plaintiff's groom swore that defendant's driver was nursing a Saloon 'bus, and, in his anxiety to pass, he struck the wheel off plaintiff's phaeton. To controvert this, defendant called a witness to prove that he was going at a very moderate pace, and that he was not nursing any 'bus. He had nothing to do with that work. Plaintiff's Groom—Yes, you were. There was one of the Company's 'busses in front, then a Saloon, and then yours. His Honour—Yes ; like a sandwich. Pray, which is the wet nurse ? I suppose the front one. (Roars of laughter.) Defendant's driver could assure his honour that he was not nursing, and that the accident had occurred through the plaintiff's groom's own fault. It was very common for people to say, " Oh, nursing, of wurse." His Honour said he must give plaintiff a verdict for 13s. 6d. He did not think defendant's driver was nursing at the time. CLEItKENWELL COUNTY COURT. (Before Sergeant Jones.) THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE NEVER DID RUN SMOOTH.- ANTILL V. HUNT. Mr. Jay appeared for the defendants. Plaintiff is a tailor, and had until lately paid his addresses to defendant's daughter. The action was brought to re cover the value of some presents made from plaintiff to the young lady, and which defendant refused to return. Plain tiff thought, as the match and courting were broken off, his "lady love" had no right to the tokens of his "sincere affection." Mr. Jay said that plaintiff had no right to sue defendant, who was the mother of defendant's once sweetheart. ' Why not sue the young lady herself ? His Honour thought it was a pity such cases should be brought into court. If the match was broken off, surely defendant should have no wish to withhold articles that could only call to mind a great deal of unpleasantness. Mr. Jar — We will give the articles if Plaintiff will call for them. His Honour —Then I will adjourn the case till Thurs day morning to give time for effecting such purpose. Mr. Jay—Your Honour will give no costs. Plaintiff has had good living at our expense, at least a meal a day. Plaintiff—l paid for them. His Honour -,I will make no order for costs till Thurs day morning. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.-MONDAY. The Newmarket Coursing- Meeting, which commences this day (Tuesday), attracted many of tho principal turf speculators from London.

I T HI It D J T 1 ON Thomas Higgins, middle-aged, and of unpre possing appearance, attired in a semi-naval uni form, and George Davis, of low statute, with a profusion of whiskers, the former residing at No. 19, Gloucester-grove, Brompton, and the -latter at No. 2.

The following is an extract of a ktter fro m Kurachee of Oct. 22 : "Since Scinde became a 2ritish province, a greater calamity h as not o .Z:cursed w ithi n the pre cincts f ttan that whi c h h appened on o K urra ch Tuesday last. A ce, gout, 10 minutes to 2 p.m., whole of the p opu l at i on startled by a fri the ght ful explosion, whi c h seemed at first as if a broad side of 68 pou,aers, double-shotted, had been di charged in the centre o f th e cantonment The firs s t shook had scarcely resounded thr oug h the atmos phere when it was succeeded by a second more loud, and, as it proved ultimately, more disastrous than the former one. Every house in camp shook to its foundation. In an instant, all eyes were directed to th e spot whence this awful concussion proceeded, and dense volumes of dark smoke were perceived to envelope the space of ground ems. pied by the arsenal and powder magazine. For a short time hundreds who witnessed these huge banks of clouds were kept in awful suspense as to the source whence they emanated. Imagining the magazine had blown up, people ran in all. directions front the supposed scene of danger . , Europeans; in the neighbourhood, and with +2,leir families far f rom th e spot ; a general exe4l.us took place in the bazaar, where Parsecs, ' 1 ss biuulmen, and Hindoos mi g ht h ave b ees, seen jostlin other in their anxiety to r ecure their treasug each re and to save their lives. to the hon our of most of the European male irlabitants, be it said, they..rushed with one accord, as it were, to the scene of this frightful accident—the arsenal. It was speedily discovered that the upper-storied building on the left hand side of the principal entrance had been blown down, and that the fire resulting from the explosion was rapidly extending to the whole of the southern side of the buildings. No sooner had the danger become known, then the alarm bugle sounded through the lines of the whole of the troops in the station, and ten minutes afterwards the EuroFean andnative regiments were on the ground to lender assistance. " The wh.3lc of the brigade and station staff, together with the chief officers of the civil service, including the commissioner and his assistants, were promptkv in attendance, and, with some excep tions exerted themselves manfully. " The explosion was caused by the ignition of some composition which Sub-Conductor M`Cabe was pouring into a rocket on the ground story of the building. It seems that in this roomthere was a considerable quantity of combustible materials used in the construction of firework, and that when the composition ignited the sub-conductor, with great presence of mind, managed to extinguish it at the risk of his life, but immediately afterwards a similar accident occurred, and when he was shouting for water to some of the Lascars, the whole of the material took fire, and exploding with terrific force, shattered the building to pieces. The upper story was chiefly filled with saltpetre and sulphur.; The adjoining store-room contained all the Enfield rifles and old musketry ammunition, which quickly ignited, and from the peculiar manner in which it wa - s packed, the explosion of it created great alarm., and caused much injury to those who wero unfor tunately near it at the time. " Providentially, at the time of the explosion, there was little or no wind, otherwise the conse quences would have been most disastrous. Fatigue parties, both of Europeans and Natives, were at the same time employed in carrying ont the stores of a perishable nature they could lay their hands on ; and it was very satisfactory to witness the noble emulation between the men of the 14th N. 1., and. the extra Battalion, and those of the depot, her Majesty's 46th and 51st Regiments, in the perfor‘ mance of this work. " The conflagration laQ.ted the whole of TueF,day night, throughout wtich constant explosions of am munition boxes occurred. As evening set in,'when the extent of he danger was known, those who had tic , lfrom the cantonment began to return, and crowds assembled in the neighbourhood of the arsenal to gaze on the burning mass of ruins. No illumina tion or artificial display of fireworks could excel in grandeur or brilliancy the spectacle after each suc cessive explosion. On Wednesday morning the fire was finally got under, and parties from different regiments set to work to clear away the debris. Although it was supposed at first that the whole of the ammunition had been lost, in the cobrse of the day thirty boxes were recovered, and we have no doubt a good many were found yesterday. " A sad loss of life, as well as the destruction of many thousand rupees worth of Government pro perty, has been the melancholy result of this acci dent. Two Europeans, Sub-Conductor Laughlandl and Laboratory -man Cattle, and two natives, were killed on the spot. Store and Park Sergeant , who was dreadfully mutilated, lingered in asssl n t misery until Wednesday evening, when be Sub- Oonductor 111‘Cabo miraculously War' ed : with a laceration ou his left leg, and a tusion the right knee. eon hasSergeant Bradley tory- ...
