LAW LATTELLIGENCE.,Vov. 24. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. VAX V. BCTTERIIELD.-BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. This was an action for breach of promise of marriage, and the declaration set forth that the defendant had agreed to marry the plaintiff and now refused to do so. The defendant pleaded that he did net agree, and was so drunk at the time he made it that he did not know what he was doing. Mr. Serjeant Wilkins and Mr. Lush appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. J. Browne re presented the defendant. Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, in stating the case on behalf of the plaintiff, said he had not the honour of knowing the defendant who had put such a plea on the record, but he would prove by witnesses whom he would call, that if that plea were proved the defendant must have been drunk for several years. His client wh w o as had a .' yews woman twenty-six years of age , carried on the business of milliner at Bradford, in Yorkshire, and the slefeadant was a m altst!irre siding in the same neighbourhood. The defend ant's father had died some time ago, and the defendant was now in possession of a considerable property, realising no less a sum than 6001. a year. In 1849 the plaintiff was barmaid at the Bishop Blaise Inn, in Bradford, where the defendant first became ac- Th e acquaintance ripened into in quainted with her. timacy ()wing to the frequent visits of the defendant, who was in the habit of visiting her two or three times weekly. He was unable to produce any affectionate letters, from the fact of the parties residing so close together and so often seeing each other, that the usual mode of courtship, that of correspondence, was fund unnecessary. After remaining five or six months at the inn, the plaintiff joined a friend in the millinery business, and in 1352 began business on her own ac count, and having taken apartments she was again con stantly visited by the defendant. She after this went to reside with her mother, where the defendant con tinued to visit her, and in short he debauched this young woman ; the result was that she gave birth to a child en the ;th of May, 1854. The defendant, up to the time of her ooninement, assured her that she should never be brought to disgrace on his account, and continued to promise her marriage. He eventually refused to perform his promise. The learned counsel felt it his duty to state that about six or seven years ago the plaintiff gave birth to a child, but since that time she had led a most proper life. If the defendant sought to avail himself of this circumstance, and to plead it as an excuse for his heartless conduct, he added greatly to his atrocity. The plaintiff was now compelled to seek in a court of law that compensation which the injury she had sustained so justly entitled her to. Sarah Vaux—l am the mother of the plaintiff. She is 26 years of age. I have known the defendant five or six years. He is a gentleman and nialtster at Apperly bridge, near Bradford. In 1849 my daughter was bar maid at the Bishop Blaise Inn, and while there she used to come home occasionally. I have seen the plaintiff and defendant frequently together at our house. They went out walking together very often. While she was at the inn he said several times he would marry her. After she left the inn, she was a dressmaker in Victoria street. She often used to come home, and the defen dant with her. She did not live there long. She lived at home for a short time, and then went to Longcroft, to lodge with an old gentleman, Mr. Shackleton. I saw the defendant with her there. After that she lived at home, worked at the business, and was my main sup port. He continued to visit her till she was confined, in May last. Before May he said he would marry her before her confinement several times. Easter Tuesday was fixed ; he did net marry her, and gave no reason. He promised marriage twice after her confinement. He always called me mother. He said he had plenty of money. He is about 28. He always called her his wife. She had one child some years before. It died when it was a very little one. The father would have married her, but he died. The defendant knew all about it before he promised her. Cross-examined—My daughter knew the defendant in 1349. The Bishop Blaise was the first public-house she lived at. She lived there two months as barmaid and chambermaid. Before she went to service at Dr. Roberts's, and had not been away from home before. I cannot say where she met the first young man. I did not know of it till she was confined. She went off to lie confined two months before. The young man never let her want for anything. Ide not know that the defen dant ever stayed at my house the whole night. He has come at night-time. He was upstairs with the lads. My daughter and I slept down stairs. If the defendant and plaintiff went upstairs I used to call them down. They only went up their for nonsense. I don't know whether they have gone up in the evening or not. They used to go with a candle. I don't know that they have ever been there a quarter of an hour. The defendant sometimes came there tipsy. We used to set him down on a chair and let him sleep. We went to bed and took no notice of him. He never gave her money to my knowledge. I have heard her called Mrs. Vincent when she had her first boy, six or seven years ago. William Baraclough—l am a servant of the Lanca shire and - Yorkshire Railway Company. My mother kept the Bishop Blaise. The plaintiff lived there five or six months. The defendant was in the habit of coining there in 1849. I have seen them together several times in different rooms of the house. I thought he was pay ing his addresses to her. She conducted herself with propriety. I have teased him about it ; but he has ge nerally denied it. Cross-examined—My mother's house is a pretty large one ;,about fourteen rooms. I have seen them in the out-kitchen, the bar, and dramshop. She was sometimes scrubbing pots and pans when he was talking with her. He used often to come there, and was as often drunk as sober. James Bolton—l married theplaintiff's sister. I have often seen the plaintiff and defendant together at the• Bishop Blaise. He has told me that he was paying his addresses to Harriett, and he supposed I was to her sister. About the time of the confinement I saw him. I then kept a public-house. He then said, "We shall be able to do a little business now ; we shall be all akin." I said, " Indeed ! I was not aware of it." He said, " Yes ; lam going to marry Harriett. I think we've got everything settled now." Cross-examined—Sometimes he was half-and-half when I have had conversations with him. He was tipsy three or four times a week, but is steadier now. Re-examined--He was what I call sober when I had that conversation with him. He had had a glass or two, but knew perfectly what he was about. Sarah Moore—l am the wife of a labourer, and know the plaintiff. She has always conducted herself with propriety. The defendant used to call her his wife, and said he was going to marry her. In March last they came to my house. She was plainly in the fa.roily-way. I asked him what he was going to do. He said, if she was in the family-way they would be married before that month was out. He would not have her disgraced with having a child before she was married. Ile was quite sober. I have heard him say often that he was worth 20,0001., and that his cake was baked, and that of his children. Cross-examined•--I have often seen him tipsy. William Wadsworth—l live in Bradford. In May the plaintiff came to my house to be delivered of a child, six weeks before it was born. The defendant came to see her three times. One time he sent for her, and she and I went to one of his own houses. Another time he said to Mrs. Van; putting his arm round her waist, " Lord love ye, old mother, she and I'll be married." He has said, in the presence of Mr. Batty, that he would be married. Mr. Batty said, " Well, you can't do better." They were both sober. He said, " We'll be married by license • " and Batty said, " Well, if you're short of money you some." Cross-examined—l have heard him say that he would marry twice when he was sober, and elms when be was tipsy. When the conversation took place with Batty, they had sent for a shilling's worth of gin, and were drinking it. At this point of the case a conversation took place be tween the learned counsel, and it was ultimately agreed that a verdict should be taken by consent for the plain tiff for 2001. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 2001. WYCHB V. COTTON. Mr. Edwin James, with Mr. Bovill, conducted the case for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Knowles, with Mr. Udall, represented the defendant. This was an action to recover the suns of 221. for damage inflicted on a carriage by means of a collision with a dogcart, which was driven at the time by the defendant himself, and through whose negligence it was alleged the accident had occurred. It appeared that the plaintiff is a jobmaster and livery stable keeper, carrying on his business in Swallow-street, Regent-street, and that on the 13th of September he let the carriage in question to a Mr. Rawlings, for the pur pose of taking a party of friends to Wanstead, in Essex. After having disposed of their repast the party set ont on their return home soon after 7 o'clock iu the evening, and it was as they were proceeding on this return jour ney that the collision took place. All went on well until shortly after they had passed the Eagle at Snares brook, at which house it was understood they pulle d u p and had some refreshments, when they were driven against 4in n,by the defendant in his dogcart. The effect of and collision was that the carriage was much damaged , the hinder wheel torn off. The defendant and his groom were thrown out of the dogcart, which by the violence of the concussion cussion was thrown over. After the defendant had r ecovered himself sufficiently from the effects of the fall, having picked u p hi s gr oom and placed him against the car riage and expressed a plings, he went up to the ear marking, " That it Was hop e that no one was h ur t, re the d—d lamps in a vehicle which was seeing the latterfollow."ing th e carriage that had prevented his been The given, evidence in supp ort of the plaintiff's case having The jury consulted for a few minutes, and then re turned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 131. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. T COURT OE THE QUEEN V. THE JUDOS OF THE COURT OXFORDSHIRE. Mr. Cripps moved for a rule to show cause a why pro hibition should not iss ue to the j ud ge of the County Court of Oxfordshire, to pr ohibit him from procedi t ' hear an application for a new trial in the case of Carte r v. Smith." The question turned on the constructio n of the 141st rule of practice of the County Courts of Erw_ land, made under the provisions of the 12th and 13th of Victoria, chap. 101. The rule provided that an appli. cation for a new trial might be made and determined on the day of hearing if both parties were present, or it might be made at the next court held after the expiration of 12 clear days from the day of hearing, or given seven clear days' notice before the holding of the court, and that the party intending to make such application should give a written notice, stating the BAIL COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton.) iv TlaE MATTER OF W. H. ORCHARD. Ti*le was a rule calling on W. H. Orchard, an attorney of this Court, to show cause why he should not be struck off the roll of attorneys. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., and Mr. Francis, showed cause. _ _ _ _ . It appeared from the affidavits that Mr. Orchard, to gether with a person of the name of Cox, had been con victed of a conspiracy to defraud by means of a false affidavit of increase upon the taxation of costs in an action of A. Orchard v. Rackstraw, Mr. Orchard being the attorney for the plaintiff in that action. The affidavit which was prepared and sworn by Cox, who was the ar ticled clerk of Orchard, stated that certain witnesses in the cause of A. Orchard v. Rackstraw had been paid their expenses for attending the trial. This was alleged to be false, and hence the indictment, which however had not been preferred for nearly three years after the alleged offence had been committed, Mr. Orchard's own brother being the prosecutor. The only part taken by Mr. Orchard in the matter appeared to be that, whilst at tending the taxation, hi had stated, in answer to a ques tion of the attorney who appeared for the defendant, "That all the witnesses had been paid." Circumstances were about being entered into which, as it was con tended, exonerated Mr. Orchard from any criminal in tention, inasmuch as these circumstances had induced. him, at the time he made the statement referred to, to believe in its truth, when Mr. Justice Crompton suggested that this was a case which might be better investigated before the Master. Mr. J. P.Wilde, who appeared for the Law Institution, was willing to adopt the course suggested. Mr. James stated that his client was anxious that the fullest investigation should be made into all the circum stances. _ _ _ . The - whole matter was accordingly referred to one o: the Masters to report upon. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY'. (Before Mr. Commissioner Gou'burn.) IN RE L. BENJAMIN. The bankrupt was a jeweller of Princess-street, Lei cester-square. This was the certificate meeting. Mr. Linkla.ter, for the assignees, asked for an adjourn. ment in order to ascertain the result of an action brought by the - assignees against the trustees of pro perty held under an assignment by the bankrupt. Mr. Lewis resisted the application. His Honour said the case was certainly not one in which the bankrupt could expect an immediate certi ficate. He had begun his accounts 800/. worse than nothing. He now owed upwards of 2,0001. A short time before the bankruptcy he had assigned over all his effects, and there was now nothing for the creditors. Under such circumstances there would be an adjourn ment for three months. (Before Mr. C Jrnmissioner Fonbianque.) IN RE RAFFAELE MONTI. The bankrupt was a sculptor of Great Marlborough street, and is well known from his numerous -casts in the Crystal Palace. From a preliminary statement of hi, affairs by Messrs. Paul and Turner, the accountants, his debts would appear to amount to 15,866/. The assets chiefly consist of a sum of 5,043/., the balance of an account of 18,6931. with the Crystal Palace Company. There are works of art held by creditors as security valued at 1,792/. A sum of 6,0001. will, it is esti mated, be required to finish certain contracts with the Crystal Palace Company. These contracts include 38 fountains to cascades, consisting of boys carrying tazzas, to be executed in Garland's plaster, for 3,9001. The works completed include river fountains, and ocean fountains, and statues for fountains, in the terrace-gar dens ; of " Hope, " Joy," " Friendship," Lore," " Modesty," " Valour, " Vigilance," and " Prudence." Debts to the amount of about 5,000/. were proved, and Mr. George Thomas Ellis, builder, and Mr. Montagu Hunt, of Whitehall-place, were chosen assignees. The bankrupt attributes his failure to his haying undertaken contracts at a figure at which he is now unable to carry them out, owing to the advanced prices of labour and materials. Also, to the partial failure of the process by which he sought to produce the gal's-also-plastic casts. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING-, NOVEMBER 25, 1854 grounds of the application, both to the clerk of the court and to the party. The rule then provided that if such application should not be made on the day mentioned in the notice, no subsequent appli cation should be made without the leave of the judge, and on such terms as he should think fit. In the present case no notice had been given as required by the first part of the rule, but an application had been made for a new trial to the judge. who said he could not grant the application, but that he had the power, under the latter portion of the rule, to give his leave to apply at the next court. The learned counsel contended that the judge had no such power. He could give leave to apply for a ' new trial only in the case where the requisite notices bad been given, but where, for some reason or another, the party had been unable to make it in due course. In the present case no notice whatever had been gives, and therefore the judge was acting without jurisdiction. Lord CampbeH said, the judge of a County Court, being the judge of an inferior court, had no jurisdiction to grant a new trial except in cases where an act of Par liament permitted him to do so. The learned counsel might take a rule.—Rule nisi granted. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. lIIGISTRANIOI 4 .I APPHI.LS.-!RI PIIT2iST APPRLLANT, V. RINDIRION, BASPONDINT. It will be remembered that this was an appeal from a Revising Barrister, by the holder of two allotments ob tained from a freehold land society, which, let on a building lease, would be worth 151. a year, but which if let from year to year, and used for any ether purpose than building, would net be worth 40i. a year. The barrister held that this was net a sufficient qualification under the statute of Henry VI., and. refused to allow the vete. The case was partly heard yesterday, and the hearing was resumed this morning. Mr. Sergeant Byles, on the part of the appellant, re plied, and he contended that the finding in the case, that the land would be worth 151. a year only upon a lease being granted, could not affect the appellant, by reduc ing his interest in the estate, for it was laid down in Sugden's "Law of Vendors and Purchaser.," that tie expense of preparing a lease, in the absence of any ex press agreement, would fall upon the grantee ; and taking that into consideration, with the statement in the case, that the land let on building lease would be worth 151. a year, it was clear that the appellant had a free hold interest worth more than 40s. a year. As to the class of cases which had been referred to as analogous, the cases of poor-law assessment, the court had decided in the case of "Covill v. Wood" (2 C. 8., 216), that the principle of those cases ought not to be applied to regis tration appeals. If a man had an estate of 40s. a year, on which there was a charge of 205., the poor-law as sessment would be upon the 405., though it was clear that the owner would not have a vote. The Chief Justice said it seemed to him that this was a good vote, and that the vote must be allowed. It was not necessary to lay down a rule of law as to speculative, or fraudulent value for the purpose of gettin g votes, for in this case the re was abundant evidence that this plot of land was worth 40s. a year, and 'nothing but the un willingness or obstinacy of the appellant could prevent his getting 40s. a year for it. Ho 113/1 given 1501. for it, and that amount in the ordinary way would produce more than 40e. a year, but beyond that he could let it for 151. a year if he thought fit ; and it was simply because it was not worth 40s. a year as agricultural land, that the revising barrister had held that it was not worth 40s. a year, and had refused to allow the vote. The question was, what !would the land fetch in the market, for a thing was generally worth what it would fetch ; :and the barrister said that the land would fetch 151. a year on I lease. It had occurred to hint at the moment, that it might make a difference that the value could only be ob tained upon something being done by the landlord to entitle the tenant to build on the Imitate, but on consi deration, it appeared that every value depended upon something to be done by the landlord ; there must be a letting by lease, or verbal agreement, in every case. The price of the land, the offer for it, and the statement that it was worth for building purposes 151. a year, all showed that it was worth mere than 40s. a year ; and the revising barrister ought therefore to have granted the vote under the statute of Henry VI. Mr. Justice Manle thought it was clear that the ap pellant had a vote, as having a fre ehold from which he might expend 140 s. a year if he liked. lie had paid 1501. for it, and it appeared that he might let it for 1g„ and without anything to qualify these facts, it could not be doubted that the land was worth 40e. a year. If it was necessary that ithe land should at pre sent preduce 403. a year in order to give a vote, then a man with an estate of 14,0001. a year might possibly be deprived of his vote. The revising barrister seemed to have thought that if the appellant had had power to let to a tenant from year to year at 40 , , that would have conferred a vote, or even if let for 21 years on an occupation lease, bat he thought that as the requi site amount could only be obtain-Aid by grantinc, a build ing lease that that would not do. B u t w h y not? Build ing, of course, would not take place without getting a tenant willing to build, but in every tenantcy there must be a compact of some kind or other, and there was no reason for depriving the appellant of the right of suffrage, his property being clearly sufficient to give it him. The appeals were therefore allowed in this case, and in the sixteen others eonsolidatel with it. ITN-GETZ' V. LE VII% This was an appeal from the di cision of the revising barrister for Westminster. Mr. Whitmore appeared for ti,e appellant ; and Mr. 31`Namara for the respondent. The only point in the case was whether the notice of objection sufficiently pointed out in which list of voters a voter objected to, planed Alford, was. In borough registrations the overseers are required an nually to make out a list of per sons supposed to be qualified to vote, and if there be more than one list of voters a notice of objection s;tionld specify to which list it referred. Two lists are niade out, one of those entitled to vote under the old f] anchise, and the other of those to whom the franchise is given by the Reform Act. The notice of objection objected to the voter's right to vote " under the Reform. Act. The Court thought the notice g ood. All that was re quisite was to describe the list, and by saying " under the . _ Refor m A c t " t h e li st was su ffi c i e ntly described. The voter's name must therefore be expunged. PREROGATIVE COURT. (Before Sir John D•odson.) ZLWELL V. Mg LTEI. This was a business of grantina administration, with will annexed, to the good s of Mi T. Ann Elwell, late of the Liverpool-road, and was prow toted by 'a brother of the deceased against Mrs. Smith a legatee named in the will. Opposition was now withdrawn, and The Court now pronounced fox the will. BOW-STREET.—Mr. Morbey, the landlord of the Rising Sun (the house in which 114 persons were lately apprehended by the police), waited upon Mr. Jardine to inform him that he was at Lowestoft at the time, and, net having the slightest knowledge of what was going on at his house, or of the intentions of the police, it was clear that he had not designedly kept out of the way. He had been complimented by the colleagues of his wor ship upon the manner in which he had conducted his house, and he was most anxious to keep within the law, although he was not aware that persons betting among themselves, while using his house, was illegal. He begged also to repudiate all knowledge of, or concurrence with, the scurrilous attack on his worship in a paper called the Racing Times, and to assure his worship that he should not have risked the loss of his license (which would be the ruin of him), to sayinothing of the expenses in which he had been involved, by pursuing any course opposed to his worship's views of the law. He was fined 10/. on a former occasion for betting himself, since which time he had never made a bet with any one, and to this extent only he thought he was limited by the act. Mr. Jardine said, he had nothing to do with the ini tiative in these matters. He was asked to interpret the meaning of these Betting Acts, and he did so to the best of his ability. His decision had been appealed against, and he was not sorry for it, as it might assist in bringing about a clearer understanding upon a subject of consi derable importance. As to the print referred to, he should not have been conscious of the existence of such a paper if some one—most likely the person who wrote the article in question—had not taken the trouble to send him a copy of it. He (Mr. Merbey) need not dis tress his mind about that part of the matter. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER. We leave nothing of importance to record since Tues day.

By her Majesty's Royal, Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and Persoective Glasses (glazed with Munic German Glass), to kiilw the distances of objects viewed through them—of great importance to the army, navy, and others. Those telescopes possess such extra ordinary powers that some 3.4 inches, with an extra eye , piece, will show distinctly JuDiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be seen a person's countenance time miles and a half distant, and an object from 12 to 14 miles. They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly,--The Royal Ex hibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small, powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and knownli miles distant; they answer every purpose on the race-course, ,and at the opera houses, country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.

Observo—oppo site the York Motel. At a meeting of the London Chartered Bank of Aus tralia, held to-day, Mr. D. Dunbar presiding, a dividend of 3 per cent., free of income-tax, for the half-year end ing the 30th of June, was unanimously carried. The chairman stated that it was not the practice to exhibit accounts on the present occasion, the ordinary period being in June, when they would be brought forward properly audited, but that an abstract of profit and loss had been prepared, with the view of satisfying the shareholders that the rate of distribution proposed is warranted by the position of the bank. The advices from the colony are satisfactory, and, with the exercise of due caution, business is making progress. After pay ment of this dividend and the transfer of 10 per cent. . to the reserve fund, a balance of 7,0001., or nearly 11 per cent., will remain to the credit of the current half year. In illustration of the increase of operations, it was mentioned that the circulation, which, on the 31st of December, 1853, was 125,0001., had, on the 30th of June, increased to 279,0001. ; that the de posits, from 230,7941., had increased to 291,0001. ; and that the discounts, from 380,4531., had increased to 810,0001. The dividend having been agreed to, the question of an increase of capital was taken into con sideration. On behalf of the directors it was intimated that the augmented transactions of the bank require at least 200,0001., which is proposed to be raised in 10,000 shares of 201. each, the board promising to use oircum speotien in calling up the amount after the payment of 1 the first 51. per share in January next. Under the charter the capital can be increased to 1,000,0001., but the directors state they are not desirous of carrying it at present beyond 700,0001., so that the proprietors may receive the full benefit of the profits. There are three establishments to support in Australia—one in Sydney, one in Melbourne, and one in Geelong ; and, as the co lonial officers report that these cannot be adequately re presented by less than 450,0001., it is felt that 50,0001. is too little for the parent establishment in London. The great majority concurred in these views, but one proprietor suggested that no hurried steps should be taken in this direction, especially since it would be ne cessary, in the existing condition of Australian affairs, not to encourage an extension, but rather a contraction of banking facilities. It having been explained, how ever, that the London Chartered Bank of Australia being in comparative infancy, and having to sustain itself against the active rivalry of the established Australian banks, may require the amount to increase the confi dence of its customers and the public, the resolution was forthwith unanimously adopted. At the close of the proceedings, Mr. C. G. Barnett, of the firm of Barnett, Hoare, and Co., was elected a director ; and, in answer to a question, it was announced that, although the board under the deed are entitled to receive 3,0001. as remu neration, they have accepted only 1,800/. The following is the abstract of the profit and loss account at 30th of June, 1854 : To proportion of preliminary expenses for half-year ending 30th of June last £1,403 911 Amount carried to reserve fund 1,500 0 0 Dividend of 3 per cent. on paid-up-capital for half-year ending 30th of June (free of insoine-tax) Balance to next half-year 15,000 0 0 6,977 11 9 LONDON CHARTERED BANK OF AUSTRALIA. £24,881 1 8 By balance at 31st of December, 1853, por last Report Balance of profit and less at London office and branches at 30th of June last 21,102 1G 5 3,778 5 3 £24,881 1 8 July 1, 1854: By balance bronght down £6,977 11 9 T EIE CIVIL SERVICE.
