We believe that the Peruvian bondholders have had considerale reason to complain of neglect in the recoeni• lion ot their claims ; but now there is every reason to heli. ye that they will not only be fu ly recognised, but steps will forth.% ith be taken eradually to .xtrieste the republic from the weight ot this debt. We, therefore, annex the lust official note from the M nister ot Finance, in Limd, to the Secretary ..f the Chain , er of Deputies. . _ 6 , REPUBLIC OF PERU. "MINISTRY OF STATF. IN THE DEPARTMENT OE FINANCES " House ot Government, L ma, Drc. 4, 1832 " Sir,---On the 11th of September tact, on sending to the Congress various remonstrances of the Peruvian Bondholde s in London, this Ministry r presented the urgent nature of the subject; tor. besides a compromise of the national honour, the Re c •ublic would he loaded, it no measures were adopted, with an amount of responsi bility exceeding her resources. The Ministry showed at the same time that the inter at already due upon the 9.000,000 of do:lars borrowed in Lnniton amounted to 42 pi r cent., and that the Government thought that halt a million of dollars annually would be sufficient to extri ite the nation grai.t•tally from this serious embarravnent. Unfortunately, the Government has not yet received any resolution of the Chambers on this most important and pressing affair. " The prorogation of the Chambers being near at hand, the Ministry of Foreign Relations has sent to the Govern tn,nt the transiatinn of a no e from the Chairman of the Committee of Peruvian bondholders in London, in which he complains of tlie Republic not having any efficient measures to satisfy her engagements; and, after suppiirt ing it by powerful reasons, he demands that the Republic should duly attend to the justice of his elaitns. " As the Congress has already a knowledge of this business through the demands and remonstrances hereto fore seat to it, the Government has determined that the last-mentioned communication be also transinitti d, again pointing out to the Congress the neces-ity of immediately, and in preference to other matters, resolving on this affait, lest it continue in the state of suspense and paralysation, at the recess of the Legislature.—l am, Sir, ficc. • (Signed) JOAQUISi ARRERA. " To the Secretary of the Chamber of Deputies." IRELAND. COURT OF XING'S BENCH, MAY 27. This morning Mr. John Walsh (convicted of having spoken a seditious speech at the Trades' Alum), was called up for judemtat. The Attorney- General applied for the sentencr of the Court, and Mr. Walsh was heart in mitigation. He produced a joint affidavit of himself and Mr. Slevin (Chairman of the meeting of the Trades on the night in question), disclaiming the language im puted to him by the witness Cassidy. Two other affi davits were produced from individuals present at the same time. The Attorney•G-neral replied for the prosecution, after which Chief Justice Bustle sentenced Mr. Walsh to six months' imprisonment in Newgate, to pay a fine of 201., and to give securities to keep the peace, himself in 2001., and two sureties in 1001. each. Mr. Bulger, the proprietor of the Carlow Morning Post, was also brought up for judgment :—To three months' imprisonment in the gaol of Kilmainham, and to pay a fine of 201., and to enter into securities to keep the peace, himself in 5001., and two securities in 250/. each. —rimes Correspondent. The late violent hail-stoon proved very de. structive in various parts of the country. About 9,000 .quares of glass were demolished in the hothouse, conser vatories, &c., belonging to the Earl of Powls, at Walcot, near Bishop's Castle.

That, in obedience to his Majery's commands, we hum lily beg leave to submit the re-ult of our i' quiries. Our attention has been, in the first instance, directed to he question •o what extent the exis , tine courts are ade. quite to the due administi anion of justice in respect of e him s of small amount ; and finding th it they are in some essential tesperts inadequate to that purpos., we have, in th e next place, proceeded to inquire in what mann e r the inconvenience which at present exists may best be reint died. In considering whether the present establi hmenta are ad• quite to the exigences of justice in cases of sm .11 ,mount, it seems proper first to advert t..t the id: nor courts. It appe.irs hat the present interior courts are more 0t less open to some or all of the followin. ! objections . . . That their jurisd.ction is in general too limited in point 1)1 amount and local extent. That frequently , suits are rernoveable into the higher court.) without securi y T!“- want of coim vent j.idge+ and juries. • Ti'e want of efficient inferior ministers to serve and exe cute pi oce,s. The want of sufficient and simple pioce,s to compel an appearato e. The use of complicated and expensive pleadings. The di,tance of the place of trial flora ti,e residences of the parties and wi'nes,.eP. The want of sufficient means to corn lie' the attendance of witnesses. The facility of evading execution. The abuses occasioned by intrusting the execution of process to imploper agtnt., fur whose misconduct no su perior is responsible. The want of appeal. The expense of the proceedings as compared with the am ,, unt of the demand. Inferior Court consist principally of County Courts. The Hundred or Wapentake Courts. Courts Biron. Peculiar Local Courts of limited jurisdiction, which exist by prescription or grant, such as the Palace Court. The Courts of particular boroughs. Courts established by many modern Acts of Parliament, compriing Courts of Requests. The County Court, once an efficient and important Court for the administration of justice, has now fallen into a state of comparative inutility. As early at least as the reign of King Edward 1., its general jurisdiction was confined to cruises of action below 405., a limitation which, combined with the changes and deterioration which have taken pl ice in the value of money, has reduced one of the most ancient Courts to a state of desuetude. It posses.es, indeed, a more extensive juris diction in replevin suits, and in suits ccmmenced by the special writ of justicies, but the ordinary practice of re moving replevin suits into the superior courts, and the power which, with some exceptions, a defendant pos sesses of removing a suit from the County Ctait t without giving security, even where the suit is commenced by justicies, have rendered this additional jurisdiction (with toe exception to which we shall presently advert) little more than nominal. The jurisdiction which was formerly exercised in the trying of reil actions in suits removed from the Court Baton, although not taken away by any statute, may be considered as obsolete. The limitation of jurisdiction in point of amount, the annual change of the officers who preside in these courts, the want of competent juries, the lengthened pleadings, heavy costs, unnecessary delay, and a vicious system of practice, attended with enormous abuses and oppression committed by bailiff, in the execution of process by im proper agents, render these courts inefficient f,r the admi nistration of justice, and the subject of general complaint. Another inconvenience in the present constitution of this court consists in the distance to which parties and witnesses are Irequently obliged to travel where the county is laree and the c, urt is held at one place for the whole county. In orile, to illustrate the mischiefs arising from this defect, we cannot do better than refer to an instance stated by Mr. Gehl, Clerk of the Peace for the county of Sussex, of a prison residing at a di-tauce of 50 miles from Cnichester (tie place of holding the county court), who be rig summoned to that place or un unjust debt of Si., p ,iti the debt aid costs Faller than incur the trou'de and expense of resiqiiig the acti:.n He further states that the inhabitants of the populous to n of Blightheltoston are often summoned to Chichest r, a distance of 40 miles, instead of to Leues, which is only 8. Many of those gentlemen who fill the office of under • sheiiff are undoubtedly competent in point of I.gal know ledge anti exper trace to preside in the Soeriff's Court, but each of them usually remains in office but for a short apace, and doting that period his attentio • must n. cessartly be engaged by many other important official avocations. It appears to us that the appointment of a person wlu should permanently ditch rg.- these judicial duties would be a very important and beneficial ch mgr. The evidence shows that many local courts, possessing jurisdiction to an unlimited amount, have fallen into utter decay iu consequence of the want of cotnpetent judges. It appears, on the other hand, that where persons of compe tent skill have presided as judges the jurisdiction has been hly beneficial to toe public. It is a so a subj , -ct of complaint that suits in the county court are iittr-nded with unnecessary delay and expense. In a. , me counties the average length of time which inter venes between the fist process and final judgment is abut five months, and the average esp. rise of recovering a debt to the amount of 40s. is 6/. on each side ; and the costs of a trial by justices amount to '7l. or hi. on each sitte, exclusive of tie costs ut witnesses. • The Hundred Courts and Courts Baron are, like the County Curt, limited in personal suits to causes of ac tion und r 40s. All these labour under the sante or even greater defects tha❑ the County Court, especiaily such as arise from a narrow extent of jut i•dietion. Incompetent juries, an ill.regulated course of pleading, and the practice of allowing costs wholly disproportiontd to the cause of action, and which frequently amount to 71. or 81. on each side, though no greater sum than 40s. can be recov, red, render these courts inoperative for any useful purpose ; and it is observable that in some of this class of courts the same objectionable system of attach ment of goods obtains. We may further ob.erve, that the jurisdiction of some of the ancient Hundred, Wapentake, and Manor Courts, has been increased by the Legislature with very little ad vantage to the public. The Court Baron of the honour of Pontefract embraces a district 30 miles in length and 20 in breadth, and in cludes upwards of 350 townships. The jurisdiction of the court was some years ago extended by Act of Parlia ment from 40s. to 5/, The court is held but twice in every year for the trial of causes at Bradford, Leeds, and Huddersfield ; the con sequence of which th it suits are frequently protracted tor a period of eight or nine months. The average expenses of a plaintiff are from 91. to 18/., of a defendant from 6/. to 12/., so that the average costs of the plaintiff amount to nearly three times the highest sum that can be recovered. The jurisdiction of the court of the manor of Wake field has also been increased to the same extent. but its proceedings are dilatory and expensive. The court sits but four times in a yeAr, and the costs, which are regu lated by the steward, are represented 48 exorbitant. • • • • • The Palace Court has long been found to be a very use ful and effectual court for the trial of causes below the amount of 201.: its jurisdiction it unlimited in amount ; yet, as the cause, when the damages are laid to the amount of 201., may be removed into tie superior courts at West minster, without giving security for the costs, causes are usually removed in such cases into a superior court. The average number of causes brought in this court is about 6,000 early. The average annual number tried is about 180. The amount of the plaintiff's costs, independently of witnesses where the cause is tried, is from 81. to 101 ; of the defendant's from 61. to 81. The whole of such costs is allowed to the plaintiff ou taxation, BO that when he succeeds, he receives the net amount of ►he debt or damages, without any deduction for extra costs. The Court is held in general once a week throughout the year.

We have no hesitation in saying the are induced to .ke these sacrifices in consi deration principally of the great advanrag s which thei. &rive from the facility with which judgments and execu tines are obtained. The jori,dietii , n of this , •tiurt, however, is limited to the disiance of 12 miles, and no execution can I.e had against the person or property of a debtor beyond that limit. It is repreoented to ua that the Lord Alayor's Ciurt and Sheriff , ' Court, in the city of London, ate le.s useful than tt'ey otherwise would be in consequence of the practice being confined to a few privileged attorneys. It is a frequent sill ject of complaint that the costs of borough courts are excessive, the plaintiff's oists not un. frequently amounting to from 101. to 14/. In the borough court of Newark the usual costs on a judgment by default are near 101 , and in a suit to recover a debt to the amount of 21 I Is. the plaintiff's tor d cots in that court have amounted to the sum of 13/. 16. +. 6d. Courts of Requests or Courts of Conscience have from time to time yielded to the importunities of different classes of persons in populous districts. AU these have arisen from a necessity for a more cheep and speedy method of enforcine small claims. The suspicion entertained, however, by Sir William Blackstone, as to the policy of erecting courts, " with methods of proceeding entirely in derogation of the coin mon law, and whose large discretionary powers make a petty tyranny in a set of standing commissioners," have not been,retnoved by later experience. It is a matter of sound moral, as well as just legal, po licy, that no debtor shall be exempted from the legal obligation to pay a just debt, however small ; such an ex emption would not only be unjust in reference to the poorer classes of society, to whom small sums may be of great importance, but objectionable in its tendency to weaken the sense of moral obligation. On the other hand, the due administration of justice in the case of very minute claims is subject to inconvenience. The labour and difficulty of investigation do not depend on the magnitude of the cause of action, and it is pos- sible that twelve jurors may be occupied for a whole day in deciding upon the justice of a claim of 12d., and at a far ereater expense and inconvenience to each of them than 10 times :he whole amount of the debt and costs. If justice in such carve is to be administered according to the ordinary rules of evidence, in a court regulated by eel tarn rules of practice, the proceeding ceases to be reme dial Ia its effect. on the other hand, all such restraints be dispensed with, the tribunal becomes arbitrary, and its decisions too vague and uncertain to be satisfactory. These considerations tend to point out the main objec tion to which a Court of Requests is, in its nature, sub ject. So much is lift to the discretion of those who de cide the cause, that they ought to he p‘trsrms of conside rable ability and learning to perform their fonctions with propriety; but they consist, in genera!, of commissioners whose pursuits in life can give no assurance of their pos sessing these qualities. TLere is a suspicion, too (whether well or ill founded it is difficult to d,tertnine), that their decisions are often wanting impartiality. We rn-iy observe that the facility of obtaining execution against the goods, and even the person of a debtor, in Courts of Request, has been reprevented to us as injurious, by encouraging the giving of credit, and the incurring of debts to a mischievous extent., and that whil►t the labourer is obtaining credit for necessaries at an enhanced price, he iv enabled to waste his te•rdy morey in procuring indul geec•es which he cannot obtain on credit. We have also to &met ve that the power given to those courts of imprisoning debt Id for Hindi sums is productive of v. ry i•tressiat; ,nd injurious consequence*. Instances have oc-•urted i.t ti e iu pro.onment of defendants tor several weeks in rasp, et of debt* to ti:e amount of 18d. or 2e. ; and the Certain rff et of the practice of imprisonment in such eases is trr• parable injury to the habit*, feelings, and unto ais of the lower class,* of society. Hiving thus noticed the principal defects incident to several classes of inlet ior and local courts, we have further to observe that, regarded eIS a system, they exhibi , great i ,, cunaistenciea and discrepancies. Should it be deemed advt. ehle, in order to meet the exigencies of jus•ice, to increase the jurisdiction of the present courts in point of amount, we think that it would b• highly desirable that they should be reconstructed upon a simple and uniform model. We think that the existence of so many dill rent courts of concui rent jurisdiction. founded on principles and adopting modes of procedure so widely different, is an evil wi ich ti quires a remedy. The diff rence in the modes of price iure is so tot iking as to under it impossible that all •houtd be consistent with sound policy, and cunducite to justice. The course of our remarks now leads us to advert to the ~upelfor Courts, It is well known, as a matter of history, that previous to the Dior ro4n conquest e administration of justice was characteristically local. The Court of the Tithing, de vised for the , ecision of petty suits h.tween neighbours, th- Hundred or W,4pentake Court-, the Courts of the whole County, and the King's Court, succeeded e.ch other in regular giadation, free from the inconvenience of confused and chshing jurisdictions, according to the nature and quality of the sulject in dispute, and the circumstances of the litigant parties. The destruction of this ancient system (a favourite ob ject of Norman policy) was, to a great extent, effected by a law which deprived the principal local courts of their former splendour and power, and at the same time greatly enlarged the jurisdiction of the sup. rior courts. By this expedient the ancient local courts were brought into com p:u•attve disuse, the law and practic e of the Normans were int I otru..ed into the superior courts, whilst cognizance of cruses there was made a matter not of right, but of favour. S t great, however, were the mischief and inconvenience which resulted from diminishing the efficacy of the infe rior courts, that in the reign of King Henry I. provision was made for the restoration of the ancient local courts, though nut to their former state. These provisions were not sufficient to supply the de fect ; in tie reign of King Henry 11. it was deemed ne cessary to establish Justices in Eyre, with au►hority to visit each of the six cit cults into which England was then divided for the aduatristration of justice ; of these IS were at first appoitited, three for the travelling each circuit; the practice constituted au important article of the great charter, aria with some variation as to the title of the jus tices, their number, and the number of their circuits and visi:ations, has ever since been continued. • • • 4 , Ihe change in the value of money, and the gradual de preciation of the coin through many centuries, have tended still farther to abridge the ancient local jurisdictions. At the time when 40s. u as made the limit to the jurisdiction of the ancient local courts, that sum was probably fixed upon from the proportion which it bore to the expense of a suit in the superior courts, and would amount to at least 251. of present money- From these causes the juris diction of the local courts has been gradually reduced from above 251. to 40s. in present money; and to the same extent has the jurisdiction of the superior courts, in point of amount, been extended. The inconvenience resulting from the want of inferior courts, with competent powers to administer justice in the case of small claims, hes long been felt. Sir Matthew Hale bestowed great attention on the subject, and the re sult of his consideration was, that the limit to the juris diction of the inferior courts should be extended to 101. This conclusion of Sir M. Hale was founded, we may here observe, .n the principle, which we think a safe one to adopt, of restoring the local jurisdiction to the ancient limit, regard being had to the change which has taken place in the value of money since the time when 40s. was fixed as the proper limit, • • • • The superior courts are inadeinate to the effectual ad- etv ttial; whet; the cAuse of action is I,sa than 201. The mischief arisinz from delay i* particularly felt i , ''e great conirnerci-d district* at a distance from the rnpolis.

In ether vises, the d-lay may amount to nine, eight, or sever months; and it may be stated. that on the average, judg •nen, cannot be obt:ined thinugli the medium of a trial a , the assizes in less than six months.

'friese are the more serious where the plate where the assizv are held is situated at a consideraba distance from the populous parts of the county. When a witness from Manchester or Liverpool is taker, to the assizes at Lancaster, the coats of conveyance and maintenance do not average less than from 71. to 8!. ; it therefore frequently happens that the costs of a plaintiff, when three or four witnesses ore necessary to make out his case, amount to at least 501. or 60/., but often, we believe, to a much larger stun. The combined effects of delay and expense are necessa rily very injurious to the interests of the creditor who sues for a debt to the amount of 201. or 301, or even to a much larger amount. If he sue in the county court, the defendant may remove the cause, as of course, with out entering into a rectgnizance into a surrior court, where the plaintiff has to encounter as great an expense, and greater delay, than if he had sued at first in the higher court. If he sue in the higher court, he cannot proceed to try the cause at the assizes, without incurring the risk of extra costs to the amount of from 101. to 201. ; to these he is liable even though he should succeed, not only in maintaining a verdict, but in levying execu tion. But the defendant may, pending a litigation of several months, hove become bankrupt, insolvent, or have removed himself and his property beyond the reach of legal process ; other more pressing creditors, by successive ,rrests, may have swept away the whole of the property. In any of these cases, the creditor would not only lose his debt, but a much larger sum in coots. The very probability that a creditor will be debarred by the apprehension of trouble and expense from prosecuting an action at law, affords an ad•ritionsl inducement to a fraudulent debtor to set his creditor at defiance; and thus. whilst the law offers to the creditor a mode of remedy which is often only delusive, it in effect encourages the debtor to sake a vexatious and fraudulent resistance. We think it probable that nearly one half of the causes tried at the assizes are for causes of action not exceeding 20/. each, and that the expense of litigating them is equal to at least four times the aggregate amount actually re covered. According to the practice of the superior courts, where the cause of action does not amount to 201. the courts will not grant a new trial except on a question of law. Phis amounts in effect to a judicial declaration, founded, it mutt be presumed, on legal experience, that it is better that the applicint should be defeated in a just suit, or should be compelled to pay an unjust demand under the amount of 201., than that he should be allowed to incur the expense of a second trial. The limit thus drawn by the superior courts strongly supports the propriety of ex eluding such actions altogether from their jurisdiction. • • • • • The organ 7 sation of the inferior mite is in general in trinsical!), defective even in its application to the lowest class of actions, and the ordinary limits to their jurisdic tion confine their operation to very narrow boundaries. On the other hand, the superior courts, constructed as they must be with machinery adapted to the investigation of c :uses of great cnoiplexity and importance, are far too costly and dilsrory for she deci ion of suits of sm,ll im portance as to amount, and which seldom involve any difficult and complex questions of law. A total change of circuinvances has rendered a coure of administering justice, which was no doubt once well adapted to the exigencies of society, in many respects very inconvenient. In ancient times causes of importance were chiefly connected with real property, or wilt rights which d e ay did not place in jeopardy. Commercial dealings on credit were inconsiderable, and suits for small debts to th, amount of 251. or 301. of present money were, even after the limitation of legal jutisdiction, confined to the interior c The rapid increase of population, wealth, and commerce hos given rise to extensive credit, and has thus miturally increased to a great extent the claims on public justice; ne A and complicated ri lari ins have given rise to a sy-tem of laws adapted to the exigencies. of commerce, and have rendered necessary a considerable change in the practical administration iif the law. Among the many places which have greatly increased in wealth and population, the towns of Manchester and Li• verpool in particular, formerly small and inconsiderable. have attained to a degree of commercial importance which place them neatly on an equality with the metropolis it self, and great inconvenience is experienced in these towns iron the want of more ample provision for the adminis tration of justice. Upon the whole, it is our duty to represent that the inad q u,o 7 of the present courts, in causes o' action flow 40.. to at least 201., amounts almost to a drnial of jus tice; and that we believe the complaint, made by num ber., that creditors are, from want of sufficient means to obtain redress, tHiged to abandon their just demands ; that debtors are from the same cause tempted to a disho nest re,istance, and that the result is great injury to public morals and privive tights. 2dly. We now present for consideration some sugges tions as to the means of remedy. These must consist either in alterations made in the su perior or inferior courts which now exist, or in the era hlisliment of new local courts. I , appears to ua that no adequate alteration can be made in the superior courts. The machinery adapted to the ends of judicial investi gation in causes of great complexity and large atneun' must necessarily be too costly for the trial of causes of small amount and little complexity. It would be very difficult, with the present number of Judges, that ae.izes for the trial of causes in the country stiould be held more than twice a•year. * * 411 With respect to the interior courts at present established, we think their defects so numerous and complicated, that it is easier to devise new institutions than to introduce effectual improvements in those which exist. It appears to us to be expedient that the whole kingdom should be divided into districts, for the purpose of eats blishing local courts, upon an uniform system, and that provision should be made for the trial of causes at such places as shall be best accommodated to public convenience. and shall most effectually exclude the evil of expense in the conveyance and maintenance of witnesses (which now con stitute the principal part of the costs of a cause), and the inconvenience now felt in detaining parties, jurors, and witnesses at a distant place of trial. The limits of such districts must of course depend much on the extent of po pulation, rind the mode in which it is distributed ; but iti order to effectuate the general principle, it would be desir able that courts for the trial of causes should be held in every large market town containing a population of 20,000; that the suitors in a town containing 10,000 inhabitant. should not be under the necessity of travelling more that, ten miles to the court; and that the utmost distance o' parties from the nearest place of trial should not exceeii from 20 to 25 miles. personal hej action.orisdicti wh, r thejurisdictionthe demand local court s eanl , d, shouldi:t 2a/1.1,ht t a except cases in whi c h any r i g h t t " t or copybold, or t o ti t h e, to ll , fair, make?, franchise, or any t i t l e under commission oi ,elesto tony oappears ex t end ot teix.eexceed e e t d free h old t( us 0 bankruptcy, is in question.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was instructed to move for a writ of certiorari to remove into this GRIN an inquisition upon the body of Robert Cully, which had been lately taken before one of the Coroners for the county of Middlesex. The jury had, no doubt, been composed of most honourable and respectable men, who were actuated by a due sense of the im portance of the duties imposed on them, and whose verdict had proceeded rather from an excess of good feeling than from a desire to act in a manner which the law would condemn. On looking to the ver dict which the jury had found, it would be seen to h e bad in point of law, and that the conclusion to which the jury had arrived was not only unwar ranted by the facts given in evidence, but direc•ly contrary to those facts. It was the duty of a jury 'o find their verdict according to the facts, and an inquisition ought to be as certain as an indtc'ment. l'he facts proved by this inquisition, so far from justifying the jury in finding "Just Sable homicide," .nade it imperative on them to Stitt " Wilful mur der." They found that Robert Cully, being a con stable acting in the execution of his duty, was slain by a person unknown, and the reason they gave fur finding that the person unknown was not guilty of any other crime than that of justifiable hom i cide was, that no Riot Act was read and no proclama tion was made ordering the people to disperse. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE—YOU Ma, take the writ. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL—I believe that the Crown is virtute ojficii entitled to a certiorari, but I thought it better to state to the Court the reason why this application is made.

A bill having been sled against the plaintiff on the equity side of the Escheqr,er, he was served .eith a sz4cena, and the defendant es his solicitor entered an appearance for him on th e . Pl eas s id e o f the Court. An attachment issued against the pla n. tiff for not entering an appearance, under which he was taken and conveyed to a lock-up house. The fefenslant searched the bo Mks in the Exchequer office, and finding the appearance entered, went to the plaintiff and told him that all was right; that his opponents had made a mistake ; and that, there fore, the plaintiff, instead of putting in bail, had better go to Hotsemonger-line gaol, and then he would have good cause of action against the other side. The plaintiff acted on this advice; but having afterwards learned that his solicitor had entered his appearance on the Pleas side instead of the Equity ade of the Court, be brought the present action against him for negligence. For the defence it was alleged that the defendant bad never been instructed that a bill had been filed against the plaintiff.— Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 201. CONSISTORY COURT, MAY 29.
