THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MOR,NING , NOVEMBER 6, )846. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, N, v. 5. The Lord Chancellor sat in his court at Westminster to-day, at 10 o'clock. VANDELEUR V. BLAGRAVE. The arguments in this part-heard case, which came before the Court upon a petition of re-hearing of the decree of the Master of the Rolls, were resumed to-day, and occupied his Lordship the whole morning. We gave a statement of the facts of the case when it was opended yesterday. The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the ar guments, postponed giving judgment. The Court did not rise till a quarter past four o'clock. VICE-CHANCERY COURT, .Nom 5. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR Of ENGLAND). His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England took cause petitions to-day. FEAR V. SUTTON. The arguments in this part-heard cause petition occu pied the Court the greater part of the morning. The object of the petition was the confirmation of the Mas ter's report, and the removal of the next friend of the infant's in the cause. His HONOUR, at the conclusion of the arguments, gave judgment, confirming the Master's report, approving of the sale that had taken place, removing the next friend, and ordering the costs to be costs in the cause. EX PARTE THB CROYDON AND EPSOM RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. ROGERS stated that this case came before the Court upon the petition of the Croydon and Epsom Rail way Company, now the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company, praying that the sum of 1001., part of a sum paid into Court under the Railway Act, should be paid out to the petitioners. William Lit tlewood, who has property in the neighbourhood of Thornton-heath, near Croydon, part of which was required for the purpose of the railway company some time since filed his bill, and obtained an injunction re straining the petitioners from workinw upon his land until the value of it had been ascertained. The peti tioners, in order to stop all proceedings and put an end to litigation, paid into Court the sum of 5401. to secure all costs and expenses that had been incurred on the suits; the bill of costs of the solicitor of Mr. Littlewood had been taxed at a smaller sum than had been paid in by the petitioners, and the balance remaining in Court was the sum now asked to be paid out. Mr. STUART, on behalf of Mr. Littlewood, objected to the prayer of the petition being granted, on the ground that there was a further claim against the petitioners of upwards of 301. Mr. ROGERS, for the petitioners, contended that all costa required by the Act of Parliament had been paid by the petitioners, and that they were not entitled to the further costs. His HONOUR directed a reference to the Master to inquire what costs, if any, remained untaxed or unpaid. GRACE V. WEBB. This case came before the Court on the petition of a lady named Capell, praying for a reference back to the Master, ordering him to review his report by which ho found that the petitioner, under the circum stances, was entitled only to an annuity of 201. instead of 401. It appeared that the testator in the cause, a gentleman of the name of Webb, lived and cohabited many years ago with the petitioner, and had two natural children by her. In 1802, in consideration of her agree ing to separate from him, the testator executed a deed, by which he gave her an annuity of 40/. That deed contained a proviso that in case the petitioner married the annuity should be reduced to 20/ The petitioner before the death of the testator married ; and the ques tion was, whether a gift restraining marriage was not against the policy of the law, and therefore void ; and whether such being the case, the petitioner was not en titled to an annuity of 40/. It appeared that the deed executed by the testator was confirmed by his will, which was made after the petitioner had married. The peti tioner, in ignorance of her rights, as it was said in her behalf, had agreed to accept an annuity of 201, but upon being advised that she was entitled to an annuity of 401., she took proceedings in the cause which had been filed to administer the testator's estate, to obtain the annuity of 401. A reference was made to the Master upon the subject, who decided that the peti tioner was only entitled to an annuity of 201., and that report, it was sought by the present petitioner, the Master should be ordered to review. _ _ Mr. Bathell and a gentleman behind the bar appeared for the petitioner ; Mr. Stuart represented the children ; and Mr. Montagu opposed the application. The arguments not having concluded at half-past three o'clock, at which hour the Court rose, the case was ordered to be proceeded with to-morrow. (Before Sir J. WIGRAM ) SAYERS V. LACON. His HONOUR delivered judgment to-day in this cause, which was part-heard. He said this was a case in which the plaintiff sought to obtain costs which had arisen out of proceedings he himself had instituted. The defendant had purchased lands, the title to which was disputed by the plaintiff, and to establish his position he brought the case before the Court and the Master, by which proceed ings the costs had been incurred. Ile had carefully studied the exceptions and the answer, and he consi dered that the plaintiff was entitled to all the costs in the suit after the answer, and up to the hearing, as well as the costs up to the abarvloning of the suit. With respect to the other they must depend upon the decision with reference to the costs of the Master's office. He would, therefore make a decree to this effect. CAMPBELL V. THF. BRIGHTON RAILWAY COMPANY. _ _ _ Mr. BETIIELL Q.C., resumed the arguments in this cause. He contended that the company were not at liberty to bring into existence any shares beyond the number necessary to meet the claims of the creditors, and were not entitled to take advantage of any technicalities in the terms of the notes. The plaintiff was a proprietor at the time that the resolution had been entered into, and had not infringed the condition plainly expressed in the wording of that resolu:ion. He also submitted that the endorsement on the notes was not in conformity with the resolution. His HoNoun. said that, before coming to a decision on this case, he must see the Act of Parliament, the reso lution, the advertisement, and the other documents cited. There were two subjects to be decided upon : the first, whether the time of sale was fixed in the resolution ; the other, as to the clauses referred to in the Act of Parliament, the obj?ct of which was to enable the com pany to fulfil their contract with the rateholders. Neither party could contend that the Act was not in• tended to apply to the case of the contract. He did not doubt that the shares were allotted in compliance with the Act of Parliament. No doubt could exist if it wet e absolute, but it was contended that it was conditional. He did not intend to express the least opinion on the contract till he had seen all the papers. As boon as he had perused them he would deliver judgment. (Before Sir J. K. BRUCE.) SOWERIIY P. THE PONTOP RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. RUSSELL, who appeared for the plaintiff, said tha, the object of this bill was to compel the performance of a certain contract that had been entered into with the plaintiffs. The defendants were the proprietors of a railway, entitled the Pontop and North Shields Railway, which bad been originally the property of other parties, with whom the contract now sought to be enforced was entered into. The plaintiffs were the proprietors of col lieries in the district through which the railway in q-aes tion passed, and the object of the contract had reference to the transit of their coals, which the original pro prietors agreed to convey for a period of twenty-one years at a low rate of charge. They, however, having got into difficulties, disposed of the railway to the pre sent p?oprietors, who effected the purchase liable to performance of the contract, which however they refused - to fulfil on the terms specified in the body of the deed, but immediately raised their charges, and his clients now sought to compel them to adhere to the contract. (The Learned Counsel here read a voluminous corres pondence that had taken place between the plaintiffs and defendants.) His HONOUR said he considered the plaintiff was en titled to claim the specific performance of the contract, and would make a decree accordingly. The Court rose at the usual hour. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 5. (Sittings in Banco.) BIGHT OF WAY-ROBERTS AND ANOTHER V. WILLIAMS. This was an action brought against the defendant for obstructing a private right of way, and was tried before the Chief Justice at Brecon, when a verdict was found for the defendant, who had pleaded not guilty, and denied the existence of the right of way. The case occu pied two days, a deal of evidence having been adduced on both sides. His Lordship was obliged to leave the town before the jury came to a decision, in order to attend the sessions at Mold. The jury were entrusted to the custody of Mr. Horne, the bailiff, who, when they became hungry allowed them to have wine and sand wiches. They afterwards were allowed to have a re gular dinner in the hall, of the court, where letters and various other things were brought to them. Not feeling much inclined to come to a decision whilst sup plied with such good fare, they had beds made up in the hall, and next morning were supplied with a public breakfast. They then expressed a wish to come to a decision, and agreed to meet his Lordship on the confines of the county (Denbighshire) ; and on his Lordship's consenting, they were taken to an inn called, by a strange coincidence, the " Loggerheads." Here Lord Denman met them, and although the attorneys of both the plain tiff and defendant were present, the counsel and the principals in the action were absent. The foreman of the jury (a Mr. Cundiff) inquired of his Lordship if possession of the right of way, by permission, lor 20 years, gave an absolute right for the future. H e replied in the negati ve . Th e for e man then inquired if a road bad been used for twenty years without permission, if that would give a right. He also replied in the negative. They then found for the defendant. It appeared, how ever, that the defendant had used the road ibr more than i 20 years. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL now applied for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and entered for the plaintiff. He grounded his application on the fact that the plaintiff had held possession of the way for 38 years, and that, according to the construc tion of Wm. IV. c. 71, twenty years' occupation, without interruption, gave an absolut e " r i g ht o f user ." H e c i ted tbo authorities in support of this, and held that, considerinc , whole f ac t s o f the case, the plaintiff was entitled to considering new tri a l. Lord r, _EN bum at e length, referred to the notes of hospitable i Lt r azp i :eare s d ° , lll he said, Mr. Horne was a very sad had treated the jury with consi derable kindness b i t n e jury, when they appeared be fore him in the morn red full of the subject, and not affected by the' ga!odthatreatment they had re ceived. It appeared, also Williams had r whic h asked leave to carry furniture ove t a very bad one, and. that, subsequently it beeanie w the usual road which they and their friends traversed in going to and from the house. The Court would Con sider the application. LOCKWOOD V. WOOD. Ti is case was tried before Mr. Justice Wightman at York, when a, verdict was found for the defendant. It was an action in debt for stallage at the fair held in the manor of Easirgwold, and from which the inhabitants claimed, by immemorial custom, to be exempted. Mr. WATSON now moved for a rule to show cause why a verdict should not be entered for the plaintiff, and a new trial granted. The Learned Counsel went into a lengthened argument to show that there was no evidence of an immemorial custom to erect stalls at the fair free of charge. He also contended that such a custom could not exist. The COURT took time to consider their judgment. BUSH V. WEISS.--NOTTINOHAM AND PETERBOROUGH JUNCTION RAILWAY. This case was tried before Mr. Justice Coleridge at the last Exeter assizes, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff for 1001. Mr. WHITEHMIST applied for a rule to show cause why the verdict in this case should not be set aside and entered for the defendant. The action was brought by Mr. Bush against Mr. Weiss, one of the ma naging directors of the Nottingham and Peterborough Junction Railway, for preparing the traffic tables of the company. The agreement upon which the action was founded was made between the sub-committtee, of which the defendant was one, and the plaintiff, and set forth that the plaintiff should for the sum of 5001. per form the work to the satisfaction of the sub and general committee, and in addition adduce sufficient evidence before the House of Commons in support of the traffic. During the progress of the work he received the sum of four hundred pounds, and it was agrerd that on its completion the remaining 100/. should be paid. The traffic tables were accord ingly prepared; and on the plaintiff applying to the secretary of the company for the balance, he received an answer on the same day to the effect that a meeting of the shareholders would be convened to decide on the abandonment of the project, and that as soon as the accounts were settled a cheque should be drawn to dis charge the amount. Now the Learned Counsel sub mitted that the secretary had no right to bind the committee by such an admission, and that evi dence should have been brought to show that he did so by the authority of the directors. It was im possible for the secretary to say whether the tables in question were correct or not. There was no evidence at the trial to show that such tables were approved of according to the agreement by the members of the com mittee ; and the Learned Judge merely left, it for the jury to say whether the work had been properly performed. Now he (Mr. Whitehurst) contended that the traffic tables were not completed at all, and that the plaintiff had not employed one- half the number of persons that he ought to have done. And he submitted, that if the company had gone before Parliament the tables would have been perfectly useless, in consequence of the fre quent mistakes which ozcurred in them. On these grounds the plaintiff considered he was entitled to a new trial. Lord DENMAN considered that no improper evidence was admitted, and that there was no misdirection on the part of the Learned Judge who tried the case. He would suggest, however, that the dispute between the parties should be referred to two parties. Mr. Justice Coleridge would look over his notes of the trial, in order to see if there was any ground for granting the application of the Learned Counsel, and the Court would, therefore, defer its deci sion until this was done. THE STEAM-SHIP SEA-HORSE.—BOYD V. THE ROYAL EXCHANGE INSURANCE COMPANY. This case was tried at the last sittings at Guildhall, be fore Lord Denman, when a verdict was returned for tie defendants. The action was brought to recover 22,5001., which had been secured on the ship and her machinery, by a policy of insurance entered into between the pro prietors of the ship and the insurance office. She plyed between Launceston, Port Philip, Sidney and Hobart Town, carrying large quantities of goods, one voyage and colonial goods on her return. On the 4th of June, 1843, she left the port of Launceston, which is situated on the river Tamur, she anchored in Briant's Bay, and next day, the tide ebbing, her anchor was raised, in order that she might proceed on her journey to Sidney, but owing to the extreme force of the tide, she was driven upon some rocks at the mouth of the river and stranded. She so much strained, that her back was broken ; but by great exertions and care, she was floated to Sidney, where she arrived on the 12th of June. An inspection and survey was made, when it was found she was not worth repair ing. The pleas of the defendants denied their liability under the circumstances. Mr. Sergeant SiIEE now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had, on the ground of improper admission of evidence, misdirection, and because the verdict was against the evidence. The improper admission of evi dence, he urged, consisted in receiving evidence from the Port-master, Moriarty, of Sidney, to the effect that, by the " log," it appeared that the pumps were kept at work, which was clearly hearsay evidence ; the exclusion of evidence, which would have shown that the ship could not have been repaired at Sidney on ac count of the absence of a " patent slip," and the misdi rection consisted in the Learned Judge assuming from the evidence that she was a total loss ; and that if there were no means of removing her to a place where she could have been repaired, that she was also a total loss.. The COI:MT granted a rule on the evidence stated to have been rejected, and on the misdirection. B AIL COURT, Nov. 5. (Sittings in Banco, before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) LEMAGE V. OLDROYD. Mr. Thomas moved to set aside a nonsuit which had occurred in a case tried before the Under-Sheriff for the county of Middlesex. The Learned Counsel said that the grounds on which he moved would at once establish his claim to a rule. There were two causes on the list in the Sheriff's Court, the same plaintiff against different defendants. These causes stood second arid third. The actions were brought for money had and received. In the case which preceded these causes, the learned counsel engaged were not quite ready, and he (Mr. Thomas) was asked to proceed with his cause. He consented, on the understanding that all his witnesses were in court, but on calling a must material witness to prove the delivery of the money, he found that he was absent, and a nonsuit was at once entered. The oth •r cause was then called on, and the witness being present, a verdict for the plaintiff was obtained upon his evidence. It appeared from the affidavit made that the witness, who was an attorney, had been requested to step into his office close by, and fetch some papers, and while he was gone the cause had come ou. He had been sub poenaed by both plaintiff and defendant, and a tender of the costs of the day had been made to the other side, if they would permit the cause to stand over for a short time, but the opposing counsel had no mercy. He believed that a motion was also going to be made in the other case where they had obtained a verdict, as the other side were equally unprepared. There was every intention of proceeding to trial on both sides. Mr. Justice PATTESON—Take a rule. (Sittings at Nisi Prius.) LAUDER V. JACKSON. This was an action to recover the sum of 57/. 183. for goods supplied by the plaintiff to the defendant. It appeared from the statement of counsel, and from the evidence that the plaintiff is connected with a com pany entitled the Wenham Lake Ice Company, and the action was brought for ice and refrigerators supplied to him. The defendant had on being spoken to admitted the justice of the plaintiff's claim, and had promised to pay it in a short time. As he did not keep his pro mise the present action was brought. The defendant had pleaded a special set off of 371. 145., stating that he had given an order for 29 refrigerators to be supplied within 24 hours, and that amount of loss had occurred to him in consequence of their nut having hem supplied within the time agreed upon. Mr. Justice PATTEsoN then summed up, and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for 571 18s. GREVILLE V. STIJLTZ AND OTHERS. This was an action brought on a writ of error to re verse a judgment of outlawry, on the ground that the plaintiff was beyond the seas and abroad in foreign parts at the time of the issuing of the writ. Mr. MARTIN, Q C., stated to the jury that it was the first instance in his experience in which such an action had been brought. The point which they would have to try would simply be, whether the plaintiff, Robert Fulke Greville, was beyond the seas and in foreign parts on the sth of June last. Messrs. Stultz, the tailors, were formerly the plaintiffs in this instance. The writ, which was the preliminary of proceeding to out lawry, was a very old one. For that writ to be of any value, it was absolutely essential that the party against whom it was i ssue d s h ou ld b e in Eng land at the time, or the proceedings to outlawry wore of no avail. I n th e even t o f t h e person not being in Eng land the proceedings would be set aside upon a writ of error. It was on such a proceeding that the present action was founded. The Learned Counsel was then proceeding to put in the report of a commission ap pointed to examine two witnesses in France, under the authority of the Lord Chief Baron, when Mr. BASTOW (for the defendants), took several tech nical objections to the commission. After some considerable discussion, the case was per mitted to proceed, and The Clerk read the examination of Adelaide Vanden hewn and another, w hi c h proved that the plaintiff had resided in France for a period extending considerably before and after the dial of June, 1845. Mr. John Bevan dilated, that he was in Paris durinc, the month of J une, 1845, and during that time he saw ° Mr. Greville frequently. He was never more than three days without seein g hi m . I s acquainted with his hand writing, and the letter prod uce d, w i th the Paris post mark on it,is in the handwriting of Col. Greville. Mr. William Bevan, a partner is the firm of Bevan and Anderson, stated that they were attorneys for the plaintiff. The plaintiff had not been in England for some time. Witness received the letter produced in due course of post. It is in the handwriting of the plain tiff. The other letters produced were also received in a similar manner. The three letters were then shown. One was dated he 29th of May, the second the 91 of June, and the ,bird the sth of Jun:,. This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. BASTOW having addressed the Court on a tech nical point, the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 5. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Baron PLATT and Common Juries.) WHITE V. HARDING. This action, which was heard in part yesterday, was brought for the purpose of recovering compensation in damages for a series of assaults alleged to have been committed upon the plaintiff, partly by the defendant himself and partly at his instigation. Mr. Montagu Chambers and Mr. Charnock appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Knowles and Mr. Corrie for the defendant. From the opening statement of Mr. CHABinEns, it ap peared the plaintiff was what was termed " a process server," and was employed by several attorneys for that purpose, and among others by Mr. Greaves, the attorney who was engaged in the present action, ar.d who had thought it necessary for the defence of his servant to take the steps he had done upon the present occasion. The plaintiff, in the exercise of his "professional duties," was called upon to serve a writ upon a person of the name of Etwall, for the sum of 31. 10s. The defendant was a person of considerable property, being possessed of upwards of two hundred houses, and employing a large number of hands in brick-making, in the neighbourhood of Fulham, and Etwall was foreman or managing man to the defendant at the time plaintiff succeeded in serving him with the process. Upon the 3d of June, a few days after the service of the writ, as plaintiff was passing by the Crown public-house, in Fulham, he was called in by the defendant, who was standing at the bar drinking some brandy and water, and while the plaintiff was drinking sortie beer defendant rinsed his mouth with some of the brandy and water of which he had been drinking and squirted it in the face of plaintiff ; not satisfied with a single per formance of this kind he rinsed his mouth again, and again repeated the offensive conduct ; he then held up „his fist to plaintiff's face, and said, "If it was not for the law I would teach you to serve writs upon my men." On the 10th of June following he was again in the Crown public-house, defendant was in the house also, and two navigators subsequently entered. Defendant said to would treat them with some beer if they would go and, what he called, " tar" the plaintiff. Accordingly they proceeded to the tap-room, where plaintiff was sitting in what was called " the lawyers' chambers," a portion of the " settle" which long usage had set apart as the domicile of the plaintiff, and to the possession of which he had obtained, if not an actual, at least a prescriptive, right. Whatever might be the modus operandi of •• tarring," the Court was not told, but immediately upon the entrance of the " navies" into the " chambers" of the plaintiff, they at once commenced " bonneting him,' an operation which was performed by knocking the hat of the plaintiff over his face, which, although it might be considered as a source of " fun " to the defendant and other spectators, was not altogether a matter of fun to the individual who was operated upon. Not content with the punishment already administered to the plain tiff, defendant said to the " navies," "I will give you some more beer if you will go and buy a candle and shove it down that man's throat." A candle, or a rushlight, as it appeared in evidence, was accordingly obtained from a neighbouring shop, and one of these powerful " navies" proceeded to hold the plaintiff, while the other endea voured to force the rushlight down his throat. Other trials yet awaited the unfortunate plaintiff, for as he was about leaving the house a chaise cart was standing at the door, in which was a bullock's pluck, which had been pur chased by the owner of the cart as " food for his spaniels." This treasure was forthwith seized by defendant, and with it he proceeded himself to belabour most unmerci fully the luckless plaintiff: The Learned Counsel con cluded by stating that the present was not an ordinary case of assault, but a most unjustifiable and a most unbe coming one, and hoped that the jury would, after having heard the evidence he was about to offer, award such damages to the plaintiff as should operate as an example hereafter, to prevent persons in the situation of the de fendant from assaulting any of that class of persons to which the plaintiff belonged, and who, though humble functionaries of the law, were always entitled to receive the fullest protection in the discharge of their onerous and indispensable duties. Several witnesses were then called, who deposed to the fac►ts as stated by the Learned Counsel, several of whom appeared to entertain considerable ill-feeling to wards the defendant. Mr. KNOWLES, for the defence, said that he was sorry that he should have to trouble the jury with evidence upon this case, but it was necessary for him to do so, in order to show that the treatment was not of so serious a nature as had been described by his Learned Friend. And, further to show that the case was neither more nor less than the result of a foul conspiracy between some of the witnesses, who were publicans, and who enter tained feelings of jealousy and hostility to the defendant, because, among the number of houses which he had built, one of them was a public-house, for which he had obtained a license, and the men in his employ, amount ing to a very considerable number, were in the habit of resorting there, and not to the houses kept by the wit nesses, as they formerly did. A number of witnesses were called, chiefly con sisting of men in the employ of the defendant, who stated that the plaintiff was in the constant habit of getting drunk, in consequence of the exercise of the privilege which he enjoyed as occupant of "'the lawyer's chambers," which consisted in his taking " toll" of all the liquor brought into the tap room, and that the treatment complained of was nothif g more than he was in the constant habit of receiving from the labourers who used the Crown public, house, as a return for the constant levy thus exacted from them by,the plaintiff; and some of them even stated that the plaintiff had requested them to put the candle in his mouth. Mr. H. CHAMBERS replied. Mr. Baron PLATT summed up. The jury, after consulting a short time, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 501. (Sittings in Banco.) KNIGHT V. BARBER. In this case, which was tried at Liverpool, before Mr. Justice Cresswell, the plaintiff sought to recover a sum of money which he had lost is consequence of the re fusal of the defendant to eccept certain shares in the Huddersfield, Halifax, and Bradford Railway, which he had purchased for defendant, and which were subse quently sold, whereby the plaintiff was put to loss. The result of the trial was, that the plaintiff was nonsuited upon the ground that a certain document was put in on the part of the plaintiff, purporting to be an agreement between the parties. It appeared that the defendant had given sn order to the plaintiff to purchase fifty shares in the above railway at 101. each. In the afternoon of the same day defendant signed a memorandum to that effect. This written agreement was put in at the trial on the part of the plaintiff, and when so put in the Learned Judge who tried the case was of opinion that the docu ment should be treated as the contract between the par ties, and it was therefore necessary that it should be stamped; no stamp being upon the agreement, the plain tiff's case, consequently, failed. Mr. BAINES now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had upon three grounds— first, that the contract did not re quire a stamp, inasmuch as it was an agreement for the sale of an article which he contended came under the head of merchandise, which, with goods and wares, we: e specially excepted from the operation of the Stamp Act; secondly, that the document did not require to be stamped, because it was not the agreement between the parties, the contract having been a parole contract, made in the morning of the day upon which the document was signed by defendant in the evening ; thirdly, that the document in question was not a contract, but a mere memorandum, and, as such, did not require to be stamped, and that, therefore, the Learned Judge was wrong in treating the case in the manner he had done. The LORD CHIEF BARON considered that no rule should be granted in this case. It was his opinion that the written agreement formed the contra c t b e t ween t h e parties, and whatever parole agreement might have been made, still as soon as the terms were reduced to writing, then the written agreement nas to be considered as binding, and not the parole, because if any difference had arisen as to the performance of the contract, the written contract would be that to which both parties would appeal. The Learned Baron alio stated that it was his opinion that the document in question should have been stamped, because it was impossible to suppose that scrip could be considered as merchandise. The sale of scrip was nothing more than an agreement to part with such interest as the party might hold in it, in consequence of some agreement made between himself and some company or companies; it could not, there fore, be goods or merch an di se , ad not coming under the exception contained in the Stamps Act, ought, there fore, to have been stamped. Mr. Baron PARKE was of the same opinion. • Rule refused. COURT OF GUMMuN PLEAS, Nov. 5. (Sittings in Banco.) VAUGHAN V. HANCOCK. Mr. CROWDER moved for a rule to set aside the non suit in this case and grant a new trial. It was tried at last Bristol Assizes, before Mi. Justice Erle. The ac tion was brought to compel the fulfilment of an agree ment fur the purchase of a public-house. The defence was that the agreement being a verbal one was void by the statute of frauds. The Learned Counsel contended at great length that the statute of frauds did not apply in this case. The COURT, refused the rule. LAMBERT AND ANOTHER V. MILNE.—THE OXFORD, WIT NEY, CHELTENHAM, AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY. Mr. MARTIN, Q.C., moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict given in this case for the defendant should not be set aside, and a verdict entered for the plaintiff for 1,0391. 13s. 6d., or a new trial. The case was tried at last Newcastle Assizes, and under the direc tion of the Learned Judge a verdict was entered for the defendant. The plaintiffs were lithographers, at New. castle, and the defendant was a provisional committee man of the Oxford, Witney, Cheltenham, and Gloucester Railway, and the action was brought to recover an account due, for preparing the plans, sections, &c., of th e company. A person of the name of Potter ga ve the order, and the work was executed under the superin tendence of Mr. Nicholson, the engineer. Now it had been proved on the trial that the defendant was a pro visional committee-man of the company from the be ginning, and that he had acted as such ; but it was de nied that he had been a party to giving the order in question, or was on the committee of management at the time. The real point at issue was whether the general provisional committee-men were liable for the I pecuniary engagements of the committee of manage ment. The Learned Gentleman concluded by giving a number of cases in which it had been so ruled. At present, with respect to some evidence, according to the particular view of a judge, a verdict in any one of these cases could be obtained for either plaintiff or defendant. What Mr. Baron Rolfe ruled to be in favour of the de fendant, Mr. Justice Alderson and others had decided to be for the plaintiff. Such was the state of conflict at present —Rule granted. PRICE V. BELCIIIR. -THE RETURNING OFFICER 07 ABINGDON. Mr. WHATELY, Q.C., moved for a rule to set aside the verdict in this case for the defendant, and enter it for the plaintiff for 40i. The action was tried at the last assizes for the county of .13erk;, before Air. Justice Menlo, and the verdict was given for the defendant, with leave to move. The plaintiff was a Dissenting minister. the defendant the returning officer of the borough of Abingdon ; and the action was brought against the latter for refusing the vote of the plaintiff, on the occa sion of an election in 1845, when Mr. Frederick Thesiger was made Attorney-General, and also with denying a scrutiny. It was p rove d on t h e tr i a l t h at t h e plaintiff had removed from Abingdon to Gravesend, and the vote was alleged, in consequence, to be bad ; but, admitting this to be so, he (Mr. Whateley) denied that the return ing officers had, under the Reform Act, the power at an election to strike any name off the register, or refuse any vote named in it. The Lord CHIEF JUSTICE was of opinion that, though the defendant might not have a right to vote, yet that the name being on the register the returning officer could not take the power in his hands he had done.— Rule granted. BAKER V. BLA.RKITT.--STOCR. EXCHANGE PROCEEDINGS Mr. WIIITEIIURST, Q.C., moved for a rule to set aside a verdict given for the plaintiff in this case for 1,031 L Os. 5d., and fora new trial in an action tried last sittings, after term, at the Guildhall, before Mr. Justice Erle, and on the grounds of the improper recep tion of evidence; and also that the verdict was against evidence ; also he moved to show cause why the da mages should not be reduced to 962/. 10s. The action was brought by Mr. Baker, a sharebroker, against Mr. Blarkitt, a gentleman residing at Gainsborongh, for the purchase-money of 550 East India Railway Shares. The price of each share was laid at 1/. 155., with 2s. 6d. per share for brokerage and allowing the account to stand cover till the next settlement day. 9621. 10s. was the nett price of the shares. The Learned Gentleman went into a variety of details, to show that the defendant gave the order through a person named Stark, who negotiated with Baker, and that he had expressed his willingness to settle with Stark, who owed him a considerable balance, but refused to recognise Riker ; also to show that seve ral points of evidence against the defendant had been ad mitted by the Learned judge, which ought to have been rejected. The defendant likewise denied that any such company as the East India Railway Company was recog nised by the statutes relating to joint•stock companies. The main point at issue was whether the company was in legal existence before the Ist of November, 1844, when the Joint Sleek Companies' Act came into opera tion, and in a position to i ssue s h ares, suc h as to a d m i t the fulfilment of any arrangement that might have been come to in regard to purchasing for the defendant. The Learned Judge left this point to the jury, and they gave a verdict in the affirmative; thouth he (Mr. Whitehurst) submitted that it was a legal point which ought to have been decided by the judge.—Rule granted. ELDERTON V. EBIINGS—CHURCII or ENGLAND LIFE AS SURANCE COMPANY. Mr. Sergeant BrLES moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict given in this case for the plaintiff, for I,OOOL, should not be entered on the first count for the defendant, or why a new trial should not be granted, or the verdict arrested by a venire de novo ; also, because the verdict was against evidence. This action was brought by Mr. Elderton, a solicitor, against the Church of England Life and Loan As. surance, Trust, and Annuity Company. It was for breach of contract, in discharging the plaintiff from being the solicitor of the company, he having been, it was alleged, appointed permanent solicitor, at 1004 a-year. lie received verdict on the first count for SOOL; on the second, 2001. The defence set up was neglect of duty, as solicitor of the company. The Learned Gentleman went at length into the particulars to show that the removal was justifiable, and that the plaintiff had received all the remuneration he could fairly demand.—Rule granted. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 5. ROBERTS V. GOWER.-THE PRIVILEGES OF THE ROYAL PALACE AT WINDSOR. This was a summons under the Small Debts Act to enforce the p ayment o f 10 / . Bs., d e b t an d costs , f or which ajudgment has been obtained in the Court of Exchequer. The plaintiff is a grocer at Windsor, and the defendant is one of the grooms of her Majesty's stables at Windsor. Mr. Maynard appeared as counsel on behalf of the defendant, at the instance of her Majesty's Master of the Horse. The defendant did not attend, and Mr. Billing, the plaintiff's attorney, applied for a warrant of commitment for contempt of Court. Mr. MAYNARD, at cansiderable length, argued that the defendant was a privileged person, and protected from arrest, and therefore the Learned Commissioner had no power under the Small Debts Act to compel his attendance, and that his privilege was a sufficient excuse within the meaning of the Act. The Learned Counsel quoted a variety of cases to show that if the defendant had been arrested he would have been discharged out of custody on the plea of privilege. Mr. BILLING, in reply, contended that the Act gave power to compel the defendant to appear, or take the consequences for contempt, against which he was nct privileged. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that it was a point of importance, rand he would speak to his brother Com missioner. On his return, he said that he was strongly of opinion that no sufficient excuse had been offered by the assertion of privilege. As so high an officer as the Master of the Horse had thought it proper to send counsel down to argue the case, and had no doubt taken the opinion of the At torney or Solicitor-General on the subject, it became his duty strongly to express his opinion that he had not only the power, but it was his duty to compel the attendance of the defendant. He would adjourn the case till this day week. SHERIFFS' COURT, Nov. 5. Although this was the first sitting of the Court in the present term, no. causes were set down for trial ; the first four days being allowed to plead, and in default the cases are set down for inquiry in this court.

A young m an , name d Edward Denham, was brought befor e the Lord Mayor, charged with having stolen a watch, the property of Mrs. Sinderby and Co., of Bull and Mouth street. The prisoner, who is respectably connected, was committed in the mayoralty of Alderman Gibbs, for having used threats to his uncle, who had been long supplying him with money. At that time he was a person of most dissipated habits. The present charge was attended with an odd circumstance. As Thomas Belcher, city policeman 618, was in B ishopsgate-street on Monday evening, at half-past six o'clock, he saw the prisoner, who was very drunk , and he staggered up aga i ns t him, muttering at the same time, " Oh, ha, this is all through that bl'e4fed watch." The policeman, whose ears were open to what he considered to be the language of self accusation, said to the prisoner, " What watch ?" "What watc h !" replied t h e p ris oner," haven't you heard of the watch that was taken near the Blue Coat School?" "You don't mean that you stole that watch ?" said the policeman. " D on ' t I t h o ugh," cried the prisoner ; " I had it, and no mistake, about the 15th of October, and I pawned it at Cotton's, in the Hackney-road, near Shoreditch." " You did?" said the (policeman. " Ay, and more than that" said the pris oner, " I'm blest if I didn't sell th e d up licate for a shilling." The LORD MAYOR—Have you ascertained whether the prisoner betrayed himself in hi s cu p s? The police ) nan replied th a t there was no doubt upon the subject. lie had found that a robbery of the kind had taken place, that the watch had been pawned, and that it had siilce been redeemed. Miss Sarah Sinderby stated that she carried on the business of watch-maker, silversmith, and jeweller, in partnership with her mother, at No. 18, Bull and Mouth street ; that between two and three o'clock in the after noon of Thursday, the 15th of October, the prisoner walk( II into the shop, pointed out a watch in the win dow, and requested to look at it. After having looked at it, he asked to see another, and then turning his at- Pentici 11 to the first, he suddenly started with it out 9f the shop and disappeared. It was a hunting watch, and worth 41. 10s. The Lon MAYOR—Are you sure that this is the man? The witness-1 have not the least doubt of it. ft was stated that the young lady immedictely upon casting her eyes upon the prisoner, identified him as the thief. The prisoner—l was driven to it by distress, and I am sorry for it. Conu;;itted for trial. The Logo MAYOR Elect mentioned, in the course of the day, that a paragraph had gone the rounds of the newspapers, stating that it was his determination to commence business at the justice-room every day at ten o'clock. He had, he beggtd it to be distinctly under stood, determined, for the accommcdation of the public, not to commence business until twelve o'clock, except upon Saturdays, on which days he should tom mence investigating into hackney carriage complaints at ten o'clock, so that he might be prepared to go into the general business of the Court at twelve o'clock. He had made that arrangement under the impression that it would give satislacticn to the merchants and traders in the city of London. BOW-STREE7'. Two soldiers, of the Scotch Fusilier Guards, named Richmond and Hopgood, were charged, before Mr. Hall, with stealing a basket, containing a pocket-handkerchief and a parse, in which were 155., the property of Mary Ann Howton, a dressmaker. The complainant said, that she met the prisoner Rich mond in Whitehall on Wednesday night, when he stepped up to her and asked her to go and have something to drink with him. She agreed to this, and they went to the canteen at the Horse Guards. As they were leaving the can teen the other prisoner (Hopgoad) met them. They re turned to the canteen, and had some more drink, and Richmond attempted to take a basket which she had in her hand away from her ; when he failed in this he put his hand into the basket and took her handkerchief out. She said, " Give me back my handkerchief;" but he stood up and went out. Witness followed, and as soon as she got outside the door Richmond seized her basket and ran away with it, while Hopgood held her. She immediately went to the barracks and made a com plaint, giving a description of the prisoners. There was a purse, containing 155., in the basket. Richard Crowe, potboy at the canteen, corroborated the chief part of the above statement. Sergeant John Warren, Ist battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, said that, acting upon orders received from his sergeant-major, he detained the prisoner Hopzood upon his returning to barracks that night, and took him to the guard room, where he searched him. On his beginning to search him he said he did not like to be searched for another man's crime, and he would tell the whole truth about the robbery ; it was Richmond who committed the robbery, and he had nothing to do with it. Witness found on him 25., which he said belonged to a comrade who was in the hospital. Richmond afterwards came to the barracks, and was searched, ls. 6.1. in silver, and 6id. in copper was found on him. The posecutrix saw the prisoners that morning, and immediately identified them. The prisoners were committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Thomas 11PGrath, Jo'.n Lennard, Dennis Bryan, Da niel Daly, and Pairich Bryan, were placed at the bar, charged with assault and riot, after committing a rob bery on a coffee-house keeper. Helen Gillhatn, a young girl, said her mother, a widow, kept a coffee-house in Buckingham-place, Fitzroy-square, and on Wednesday, when her mother was out, the Eve defendants came in and ordered dinner, which was given them, to the value of 4s. 7d. Atter dinner they called for tea. The defendant refused to let them have tea unless they first paid for their dinner, which they would not do. She therefore called in the aid of a po liceman and some of her neighbours. Timothy Madigan, S 293, said, when called in to re monstrate with the prisoners for refusing to pay, Len nard rose and showed fight. A scuffle ensued, four other constables were called, several of the neighbours entered, and a crowd gathered about outside, so that the shops were necessarily shut up. Four of the defendants fought policeman and neighbours, one square of glass was broken, and several plates. They were all brought to the station. The proprietor of the Collegiate Coffee house, in Tottenham Court-road, recognised four of the defendants as having been in his house on Tuesday night last, in company with another, when they called for refresh ments to the value of seven shillings, and refused to pay the money. _ _ _ Mr. IlAnDwicKE said he was amaz2d the proprietors of those houses would give credit to such persons, who knew well nothing could be done with them in criminal law, and that no body would ly3 at the trouble of sum moning them to the Court of Requests. The Magis trate then said, the four defendants who had been proved guilty of assault should pay 51, or go two months to the House of Correction, and M`Grath, the other defendant, who was an accomplice in the riot, should enter into his own recognizances in 501., and find two sureties in 251. each, with twenty-four hours notice of his bail, for his good behaviour for the next two months. CLERKENWELL. George Crosbie was charged with stealing a quantity of brushes, silver pencil cases, rules, and other articles, the property of Joseph Lambert. _ _ _ Mr. Lambert stated that he carried on business as a pawnbroker at No. 80, Old -street, and the prisoner was in his employment as an assistant. The missing pro perty was traced to the possession of a general dealt•r in St, John-street, who identified the prisoner as the person from whom he received it. The prisoner was remanded till next Tuesday, in order that further inquiries might be made as to other pro perty alleged to have been removed. - A - most - respectable, gentlemanly. looking man, about 60 years of age, who stated his Dame to be Robert Mat thias Parker, and his residence to be in CioudeAey square, was placed at the bar on the charge of' letting off a Fquib or cracker yesterday evening, in High-street. Islington, under the following singular circumstance,:— Mr. Hill, the Inspector of Postage-stamps at Somerset house, stated that he was driving along the road on his way home to Tottenham, when he saw the defendant, who was walking with a little boy on the footway, light a squib and throw it into the road, and it flew right across to the other side, and caused his (Mr: Hill's) horse to take fright, and placed him in considerable jeopardy. ••_ The defendant, in explanation of the accident, said his nephew having purchased a cracker in a shop, he took it from him, and in order that no danger might arise from it he lit it and threw it under his feet. Mr. GREENWOOD said this was a lame excuse, est-A cially from a person of the prisoner's age and ex perience, and he should therefore order him to pay a fire of 63. SOUTHWARK. Thomas Aylesbury, a porter in the employ of Messrs. Storry, the extensive oilmen, in High-street, Southwark, was charged with stealing a quantity of old rope, the property of the above firm. Hunt, a policeman, stated, that he was employed in private clothes to detect the swarm of pickpockets that abound in the Boroughs While standing near S , . George's Church, he observed the prisoner leave Messrs. Storry's premises, with a bag on his shoulders. Sus pecting he had property belonging to his master, he followed him to a marine-store dealer's shop, and saw him offer the rope for sale, and then took him into custody. Mr. Storry said the prisoner had been 17 years in his service ; that he had no right to take the rope away. Mr. SECKER said that he was extremely sorry to see so many men holding good situations charged with such petty thefts on their employers. The prisoner had now lost his situation and character, which he had main tained unimpeachable for seventeen years. He would be now cast adrift in the world, and suffer that misery which is always brought on by dishonesty. He should not, however, send him for trial, as his employer had interceded for him, but he should fine him 40s. for having unlawful possession of the property. LOSS OF A WHALING SHIP. MASSACRE OF HER CREW. For several months anxiety has been felt regarding .he fate or a whaling ship, named the Cape . Packet, Captain Powell, last from Sydney , and'twenty - eight sea men, her crew. We regret to state that information has now been received from Sydney that the unfortunate vessel (ihich has been missing two years) had fallen into the hands of the natives of the New Hebrides, Sandwich Islands, and those belonging to her, excepting four hands, savagely murdered. The particulars have bet n reported by Captain Jones, of the barque Elizabeth, which arrived at Sydney from the New Hebrides, on the 9th of June, having had a narrow escape of meeting n similar fate. The Elizabeth, it appeared, touched at the Sandwich Islands, the master intending to procure some sandal-wood, vegetables, &c., and : finding the natives to all appearance friendly, cast ancliciriolose to land. Several natives were allowed to' .remaTir).all. night on board. Among them was a New Zealander, who was recognise& by one of the Elizabeth crew, as one of the party who sailed in the unfortunate whaler. The pilot taxed him with it, and after a deal of hesitation, he ad mitted the truth of the assertion. — veacepunt he gives' of the affair (being able to 9 speak EngfiAh fl uent l y), is, that two or three days after the vessel's arrival, three boats were sent off to the shore for water, and while the crew were so employed, the natives attacked them, and every one of them were killed. The canoes then pushed off to the ship, on board of which were Captain Powell, ten English, and four coloured men. They were permitted to come upon deck, Captain Powell being unconscious of the fate of those whom he had sent ashore. For a few minutes they behaved themselves in their usual friendly manner; having Surrounded" their victims, the signal was given, and the slaughter com menced. The attack was so sudderi, that not the least resistance could be made ; the captain, with the whole of the crew, were killed, The four coloured men were not molested. The bodies of the murdered crew were taken ashore and cevoured. The ship was then ran s'lcked and pillaged of everything of value. She had 700 barrels of sperm oil on hoard, but the casks were broken up for the purpose of getting the iron hoop ; and after stripping the ship, securing the fire-arms, powder, &c., she was set on fire and totally consumed. Three of the men whose lives had been spared by the natives had managed to escape from the island in a canoe, and had been taken an board by a French vessel. The native of New Zealand was brought in by the Elizabeth, Captain Jones, of the latter, is of opinion that an attempt would have been made to have taken his ship but for the timely notice given by the survivor of the Cape Packet. The natives had made every preparation, and were ob served leaving a creek in their canoes, when the • ship had weighed anchor and was putting out to sea. The Cape Packet it is said was a vessel barque-rigged, 300 tons burthen. With her contents her loss is estimated at between 18,000/. and 20,000/. HULL, Nov. 4.—The Brothers, Stokes, from Middlesbo rough to Sandwich, was totally wrecked on the Binks, 2d illst ; crew saved. DEATH of the GREEK GENERAL LONDOS The papers lately received from Greece announce the melancholy death of General Londos, one of the most celebrated men of the Greek revolution. He was born in Ageum, in the PeloponnesuS, of opulent parents, and early evinced that he was destined to be a great man, and a saviour of his suffering country. Scarcely had the flag of liberty been raised, than the intrepid Londos willingly espoused the cause, and devoted his life and his all to the independence of his country. Ile lived to see that hope realised, and since the restoration of peace took a prominent part iia the affairs of the country. But what enhances the glory of this man is his co-operation with General Kalergi and the rest of the Septembrians, for the Greeks obtaining their constitution. Toe blood less revolution of the 34 of September Must be fresh in I the memories of every lover of Greece. Ingratitude on the part of those, however, who benefited by the change, is the fruit that they who risked their lives obtained, but the generous Londos never so much as opened his mouth against the ungrateful. "We have done our duty to our country," said he. " Ingratitude is frequently the reward of those who risk their lives. But the nation is not ungrateful, 'tis the enemies of the nation who are so ; and of such I do not wish to have even the gratitude." Whoa Annister-of-War, Londos committed a few political errors, but they were not of such a magnitude as to deserve the exaggeration of his enemies, and since the accession of the Coletti Adminis tration, when injustice and every atrocity were corn mitted, and the constitution unheeded, both Londes and his co -operators were justified. Such was this valu able man, for whom all Greece mourns, and for whom all the Hellenic tribe will mourn when informed of his death which took place on the 24th of September, acci dentally, by the firing of a pistol which he was placing in a box after having loaded it for the purpose of taking it with him on the morrow, being invited by his brother to go and dine with him at the monastery of the Polite ileum. As to his arming himself, when going out of Athens, he was perfectly justified in consequence of the present circumstances. His accidental death, however, was construed into voluntary kuicide by his enemies, and Coletti, and the President of the Synod, a flatterer of the Administration, denied sepulchral rites to this benefactor of Greece. The latter bases his denial on the 14th canon of Timothy, the Alexandrian ; but without examining strictly, as the canon demanded of him, in order to be convinced whether the sui cide was voluntary or accidental, M. Coletti screens himself behind his responsibility, and dares even to deny military honours to the deceased General. In vain the report of doctors, to prove that they cannot confidently say whether the suicide was voluntary or accidental. In vain the statement of the advocates, to show that, ac cording to Timothy's cause, the synod cannot deny ec clesiastical rites ; in vain did they prove that if the Synod pertinaciously persist, military honours could not .he denied ; nothing can bring them to a sense of their duty. His relations have resolved to embalm the body, and wait for a period of decency and public morality in order to pay due honours to one of the first martyrs of the Greek revolution. What a state of things are these in Greece ! Let Coletti take example from Mehemet Ali, who, on the decease of the Greek Patriarch, ordered his troops and the military bands at Cairo to accompany him to his last abode. Such unheard of conduct is a disgrace to the name of man. But Coletti cares not a straw ; winds may blow and rains may fall, he still reposes on the bed of roses prepared fir him by Fraud°. Strange, it will seem, why Greece, with the co-operation of nearly all civilised nations, does not prosper. But how can she when she has such miscreants for her rulers, who are seconded by France, and whose system of government is identified with such outrages against„every law and feeling of nature? A strange coincidence must not be omitted here. When Sir Ed mund Lyons placed under General Kalergi's order the steamer Geyser, to convey him to the lonian Islands, in consequence of the persecution of the Coletti Administration towards all the Septembrians, General Londos accompanied him to the Piraeus, and on taking leave of him, as if forseeing that he would be persecuted after death, addressed him in these emphatic words:—" I am afraid, General, that not only whilst living will they persecute us without a cause, but that even after death they will deny us the sepulchral rites." Tbis has been related by General Kalergi him self, who is now in London, far from his country, in con sequence of the ingratitude of those who are reaping the fruits of his labours, and who think that, by persecuting the Septembrians, and in particular General Kalergi, they do service to the monarchy, and will thus secure for themselves those high offices in the state of which they are totally unworthy. REVIVAL OF THE SOUTHERN WHALE FISHERY. The most spirited efforts are nowin progress, under the auspices of some of the most influential pametin the commercial world, - to restore the whale fishepes of Great Britain. The progressive decline of this enter prising trade in this country, and its simultaneous and enormous increase in the United States is fraught with considerations equally humiliating and alarming. The "British Whale and Seal Fishery CoinpanY" ap pear to have discovered substantial reason for believ ing that it may be..retived; with an unusual Combination of private profit and public advantage. They propose to commence their operations in the northern fishery,' where their expectations of success are founded on statistical reasoning which seems to he irrefragable. It appears that so extraordirArily fluc:uating is' the produce of that fishery, from the state of the seasons and the ice in the Arctic Regions, that in one of a series of 32 years, during which the quan tity of oil retained by each ship has been accurately obtained, the average quantity for each was less than 11 tuns, involving, of coarse, the owners of all in enor mous loss ; while in another year the average qtiantity was nearly 190 tuns, yielding to all a very large profit. The same disparity is found to. prevail between different ,hips in the same season ; fur during the present year, while' one ship has obtained one - hundred and 'seventy five tuns. another equally well navigated has returned clean. It must be perfectly clearithat'a trade so uncon tr,dlably uncertain is, in its very nature, unfit , : for indi vidual operation; like fire or life assurance, it must, to be profitable; be conducted on a large scale, and be -pread over a lengthened period. In individual hands it becomes little hettir than a gambling sf)trculation. The successful quietly pocket their . gainp, and retire ; the ioSei-TtlitovZ , '-atp the game in .iisgiarthiis has the Wrthern fishery dkyed. The decline of the Southern fishery appears to have been chiefly produced by other causes, which, emfiiacing evils beyond individual remedy, appear likely to be amended by a powerful com pany. On the whole, the GOvernnient having intimated its approval by the grant "of a *charter limiting the lia bility of shareholders, theleading merchants 'of the City having afforded their sanction 'to its prospects 1)3;1N-com ing its directors; and the obleets`being in the highest de 'gree patriotic and useful, its Auedess, we are Inforined, may beiconsidered certain..

SUICIDE INDUCED BY INCREASE OF FAMILY.--Mr Mills, on Wednesday, held an inquest at the Marykbone Workhouse, on the body, of 11. J. Battersbee, aged 46, a poor shoemaker, of Walmer-place, Lisson-grove. A cab-proprietor, named Cooper, of Prances-street, Lisicn. grove, proved finding the body on Tuesday morning in the Regent's Canal. Deceased's wife said they had eight children, and that at her last confinement she gave birth. to twins. This circumstance increased their difficulties and deceased's anxieties, who was an excellent husband and father. On Monday last he sold acme goods of a lodger for rent due, without the assistance of a sworn broker, and the lodger threatening legal proceedings, deceased said on Monday night, " that what with one trouble and another, there was enough to drive a man to do that which he should be sorry for." The same night he produced several accounts due to him, and gave her instructions as to their recovery, and when she heard of someone having been found dead in the water, it struck her that it was her husband, and that he had destroyed himself. Verdict—" That deceased drowned himself, but in what state of mind there was no evidence to show." —.....:,----------....
