This was an action foutided on a contract, whereby the de fendant engaged to give the plaintifra mare, and forty guineas, In exchange for a horSe. The case was tried before 11Ir. Jus tice Bayley, et Lancaster, *heti it appeared that the mare hid been klelivered, but the forty guineas was withheld on the ground cif d jireadi,of.Wltiranty, which had been glien as to three of the legs only of the plaintiff's horse. The contract *as nut , proVed as laid .in either of the special counts of the declaration, but the plaintiff resorted to the count for goods Sold, and upon this count obtained a .oerdict for forty guineas. Mr. SCAILLETT now Moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a nonsuit entered in its stead. After noticing, that though the plaintiff had only war ranted the horse sound in three legs, his- witnesses deposed to the soundness of all four, he rested his motion On the technical ground, that as the bargain was a contract, not of sale merely, but 'of exchange, the plaintiff could not recover on the count for goods sold. The Con rr, howeier, held, that where a party has con tracted to buy for money and something else, and the article is delivered, lie may then truly be maid to stand indebted in the remaining money for goods sold and delivered.

To remove this impediment, the Patentee offered to . a principle in every day's tract principle received, and supply him with some blank keys , which should f it two of the acted ttpon, throughout the whore - coots© of our popular jitris.

When, therefore, it is as they were regulated, on every successive trial he detected said; Mit Very connnonly 9 f that forgery is an offence never par.. there again ; till at last he gave them up, saying, ."

It seems natural hero to ask,--and the question, we pick or open them with any false instruments whatever. • know, has not unfrequently been urged,—is it, then, consist. The Patentee of the above Lock,. in making the following ent with the humanity of our law to subject the inferior of observations, disclaims any intention of deprechitiii 1 ' fence of forging other instruments, which have no cosset. tit t lemerits at other Locks, by describing. their defects, or tler nonstrat i na tioa with bank notes, to the same punishment which itaw ie art titeir insecurity i but trusts the Detector Lock will entitle hiss, to the higher offence? If 'public necessity requires that the to a share in the attention and patronage of the Public ; as it i latter should be punished with death, why is the former ' to possesses, in a much higher degree than any other , the tour which the plea of necessity does not apply, put on the same Principal requisites of a good Lock ; six.

There is much force, certainly, in these questions, and th or opened by any false instruments,. but also detects the first th e involve. considerations of vital importance in the frame attempt to open it ; thereby preventing those repeated eflbrts, of our p enal laws. But the remark* of Paley on this point to which even the best Locks hitherto in arc exposed. in are striking{, and well deserve attentin. Speaking of the policy these Locks, the combinations admit of so great variety, that upon which the law of England is constructed, he says, •' BY the number of statutes creating capital offences, it sweeps into the millions of them may be made, and yet one Key shall not patis net every crime which, under any possible circumstances, may any two Locks ; and the Detecter'rendoes that . vatiety inflinte ; 'deserve the punishment of death ; Lot when the execution of for the instant that °neer more of the tumblers are lifted beyond the sentence cornett to he deliberated upon, a small proportion the piece where the bolt is at liberty to pass, it overlifts the De. of each class are singled out , the general - character, or the pecu. rector, which then hooks the toil ot clad bolt, preventing it from ii a r a ggrivations . nf whose crimes, render them tit examples of passing, and thus gives incalculable additional security, (as well as immediate notice, thefirst time the true key is put into it to public justice.

In reference to its DURABILITY, it is not liable to be in. cise of mercy w hich the mere principles of penal law could of jived by constant use in any length of time ...- this has been as. themselves never fix.

CAREW AND etkOTTIER. This Was an action of trespass against two Magiitratcs o Somersetithire, which was tried before the Lord Chief Jus tice at the last Assizes for that county. The plaintiff was a farmer, of whose farm and house the defendants had given possession to the landlord, tinder .'i7 George 111., c. 32, on the ground that six months' rent was in arrear, and that the premises were deserted. .On the production of the record of the adjudication, it appeared, that the Magistrates did not act oft inforniatlon on oath ; and a question was therefore raised, whether theß prnceedingS, on the face of this instrument, appeared to be legal. The Lord Chief Justice reserved the point; and the case went to the Jury, who found a verdict for the defendants. Mr. Sergeant WaDE now moved for a rule to show cause Why there should not be a new trial—first, on the point re. served; and secondly, on the ground of misdirection of the Learned Judge. The plaintiff was the occupier of a farm, at a rent of more than 2001. a-year, and claimed certain allowances to be deducted from the rent, which the land. lord refused to sanction: When the first half-year's rent became tine, he distrainetl, and sold the crops, part of which were purchased by the tenant. In order, no doubt to induce .the landlord to make the allowances, the plaintiff quitted the . ferm-house as a residence, and removed with his family to a cottage near, leaving one, if not two servants, to sleep in the house, and continuing to cultivate the farm. In the winter, of cotiirse there was not much on the land ; but he continued to spread'mannie, and to sell his turnips, wheti the defendants authorised the landlord to take possession under the statute. The Lord Chief Justice in summing up directed the Jury to consider whether the acts done were bona fide, or were merely with It view of preventing the operation of the statute. The Lona) , CIIIEF JUSTICE said, he thought 'he directed the Jury to consider whether the tenant really intended to cul. tivate the farm, or only used shifts and contrivances to defeat the remedy of the landlord. Mr. Sergeant ILDE regretted that he .had no note of the charge, and believed the Learned Chief Justice left the Jury to consider the motive with which possession was retained, instead of the mere fact whether he had possession or not. The sir. cumatance of his removal was, no doubt, calculated to make a great impression on a special jury of landlords ; but still the the question was—whether the premises were or were not deserted. The CounT granted the rule to show cause, observing that the counsel for the defendants, on the argument, would be at liberty to urge that the record of adjudieuticin utiappealed against WAS a conclusive answer to the action. FORD V. VRIAIROSE• This was an action for slander on a viterinary surgeon, tried at the last Bury Assizes. There - were several counts In the de claration; but only one of them was supported by the evidence. This count alleged that the defendant, intending to cause it to be believed that the plaintiff' had committed murder or man slaughter, spoke these words—" I think the presebt business ought to have the most rigid inquiry. He murdered his first wite—that is, he administered improper medicines to her for a certain complaint, which was the cause of her death." On this count the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff with 201. damages. e t o h n e tra su r h y se tu quentor t l Mr. S•ronxs now moved for a rule to show cause why this verdict should not be set aside, on tire ground that the words ; !n n ut i i t t a s el w f whole force set i,m u f rd ort e l t i , w , i e m re pi n i o ed t tahemsousbtjectof serious acchtaiorgne. expectation, p w ro h d ic t l t l c zn ed ig th h e t mean that the platntilf innocently and benevolently atinlini. a w te " re e d x l P u l e a t i l n ic t i l nes aw w aY hi b cl Y , death of his wife. . - the COUIIT held that there was zio ground for disturbing the verdict. Granting that the import of th e wor d s was d o ub t . ful, they must c o nsider it was ascertained by the Jury, who were to judge of the. intention with, which they were spoken._ If they were incapable of the construction given to them in thy pleadings, the declaration would be bad; but if they were ca pable of such construction, the Jury were to judge it they bore it. They had so judged, and the Court could not bold that they had arrived at a wrong conclusion. They therefore re fused the rule. VAOSSEIL v. LIWIS. Mr. IiVSBELL moved for a rule to chew cause why the ver dict for the defendant, obtained at the great Sessions for the county of Pembroke, should not be set aside, and a new trial panted. This was the first ease of motion for new trial under the recent Act relative to actions tried in Wales. It was an 'action on the case for the diversion of a watercourse, whereby the plaintirs barn had been flooded, toad ins hay had sustained injury. Proof was given of such injury in one particUlar instance, to which the *huff was restricted by the form of the pleadings; but the Learned Chief Justice told the Jury he tild not knew how they could estimate the damages., or if the plain.. tailed sustained any damage ; and also directed them to con. eider whether the water did not enter the barn through holes, which the plaintiff - should have mended,. lie therefore grounded his motion on these directions of the Learned Judge. The Cooly' granted &rule to shew cause. _ SMITH IA THOMAS. This was an action by an attorney of the county of Mon. triogth,.for words affecting him in his professional character. — The defendant suffered judgment by default, and a writ of ip quiry was awarded to assess the damages. At the execution of the inquiry, the counsel for the plaintiff called no witnesses, but merely address ed the jury on the effect of the words as they were contested on the record. The counsel for die defendant also aildnAsed the jury, but celled no witnesses. The Under. Sheriff read the declaration, and the jury returned a verdict for -40/. - Mr. I,i:Dtow, for• the defendant, now moved to set Wile the inquiry; on the ground that as the plaintiff adduced no evi. dence to dhow the circumstance' under which the wants were spoken he was entitled only to nominal. damages. It he "hose WICKS V. CLITTTEKWOKTII. Mrs Sergeant TADDY mewed for a rule to show cause why' w • new trial should not be bad in thiS case.—lt Was an action fOr false imprisonment, tried before Mr. Baron Gralnuit at thelase Sumnler Assizes. The plaintiff complained of having bet,* taken up under a warrant of the defendant,„ and carried to St. Alban's goal, and.confined there seven days. The Jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 351., bemg 51. the each day he was confined. The defendant had bet.n committed underthe Statute, 5 Geo. 111. cap. 14, sec. 3, which was passed to protect ' fisheries. It enacted, that in case any person should take; kill, dr destroy any fish in any inclosed ground which should be private property, he should pay a penalty of five pounds, or be committed for any time not eiceeding five months. The water in which the plaintiff seas found fishing, was of the above description.. It was surrounded by houses and inclosures •es cept it;i, dile part only, where the high road passed over it ,;' and the only enclosure against the high road Consisted of what was called the battlements of the bridge. There was a railing on one aide the bridge,. and this person was fonnd fishing over the railing. On his being taken before Mr. Clutterworth. he was of opinion it was fishing on prliate ground, and he coniicted the plaintiff in the penalty of fiie pounds, and required him to pay it. Instead of paying it, he chose to go to prison, rubbing his hands and saying, this was what he wanted. ltlr. Clutter worth sent him in d post chaise— • Chief Justice BEST.—Perhaps that was what lie alluded to. • Mr. Sergeant 'FADDY moved for. a new trial on the gtound that the conviction having been put in' evidence, by which Mr. Clutterworth found this to, be private property, and which stated it to be indosed grndiids t therefore the Conclusive, and no ac. tion could be maintained: The Jtidge, however, at the vial, heckled otherwise, notwithstanding the cure e tit Batton v.' Kin. niard, and Grey v. Cookson, Ist Court granted* rule to show cause. The ItEcoßOl:n enteted the Court a few minutes before three o'clock, attended by the new Lord' Mayor and the Sherifis.—... After they had appointed an attorney"to maintain the rights and privileges of the City of London in that Court for the ensuing year, the Recorder invited their lordships to dine with the City, in Guildhall, at fi ve o'clock. Their Lordships gave the usual answer to this annual invitation' by shaking their heads with a very slow Lind solemn Motion. • ARCHES' COURT, Nor. 9. TISE OFFICF. OF TIM. JUDGE PHOAIoTED 3:41r DAM/ ANIA NOCKOLDS AGAINAT WILLIAMS. In this case articles had been exhib ited a g ainst Mr. WU hams, a parishioner of 'rring, in Hertfordshire, for having ou certain day in the month of August, 1U23, during the pelebtst. lion of divine service, stood up in the parish chttrelt of Tring, and read aloud a paper, being a summons of a vestry to con. eider of the propriety of displacing the then ihurchwardensand substituting others in their stead. To these articles, an allega tion, in the way of a defensive plea, was offered on behalf of 34%,-- Williams. On the question of admissibility, Sir Joint Ntnitot.t. said, thin suit had been brought against Mr. 'Williams for the creation of' a disturbance in the church during divine service, and for baring thereby committed the offence at' brawliok . The articles hnd been already . admitted, under the opinion of this Court that a private parishioner hnd no right to read such a notice as the one in question in such a place during the solemnise. tion of public warship. Now this allegation admitted the facts charged, but went into some statement of circumstances that ustified, as the patty conceived, the measures he had taken. Theb 'it became a ue stion whether the effect of this allegation amounted either to n complete justification, or to such in exten uation of the offence as might bear on the question of astts.ift the ultimate jotigment of the Court; costs being a consideration. dm immaterial character in a criminal suite. The Learned Judge then stated, that' the minister had been applied to by Mr. William* to read the notice, out of which this suit arose ; thatch* minister had refused to read it; and yet that, in defiance M it were. of his refusal, Mr. Williams bad proceeded to do that which no private person was empowered to de for that the minister alone was the judge of what was proper to be .done in meth e matter in the church. The Court was thereat* if opinion, that the allegation tended rather to aggra v ate than either to justify or even to extenuate the offence tibial it Was not attempted to be denied that Mr. Williams hiiti committed. In rejecting the allegation, the Court could uot forbear siskrost. ing to Mr. Williams, that after the adinissions he lied mad., it was obviously his interest to close the suit with AS little delay as possible. As long as it continued, it was impossible to avoid very heavy additional expencely . which it was much better at once to shorten. GREGO V. GREGO.
