(Laughter.) Mr. Justice Crompton--What, is the word ap plied to a string of little pigs ? (Great laughter.) The learned Counsel observed that it was even applied to a line of ducks; in fact, to a line of any sort of animals. It meant in the present instance a pair of working horses in a line—no':, abreast; for that would require a different kind of harness, and it could not be supposed that the man was to drive them in a cart " tandem" fashion. The team was like a team of pack-horses or horses in a waggon, only the Duke was to find the waggon or cart. Be yond all doubt, the Duke was to find the work that was to be done. Was he not to find the tackle, or machinery, or vehicle adapted to the work to be done ? !I t:1 N°. 22,350. THE SUN, LONDON FRIDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 12, 1864. PRICE..--..4d. STAMPED:....Sd.

Mr. Huddleston—How is it to be done unless work is provided to be done ? And if the Duke is to provide the work, why is he not to provide what it is to be done with ? Otherwise the Duke may vary the work to be done ,infinitely, and throw on the tenant the burden of providing tackle or machinery or vehicles fit for it. Put the case of harrow-work or plough-work. Was the tenant to find the plough or harrow, or the clal-cart, or the dunr.cart, or the waggon, or what not? Surely the Duke, as ho furnished the work, must provide the proper vehicle or tackle for it 1 All that the tenant had to do was to perform the team work. Bat a team alone could do no work; and how could the tenant before he knew what work was to be done provide the tackle for it ? The learned counsel made the following citations:— Johnson's Dictionary, Todd's Ed , 1827. " Team (n. a.) (temo, the team of a carriage--Latin; team, Sax., a yoke). " 1.

PROSPECTUS. This Company is formed, not for the purpose of establish ing a new Marine Insurance Office in rivalry with offices already opened, but with the object of continuing the existing Maritime Insurance business so long conducted by Mr. Henry Case, under the firm of Price and Co., in Exchange-buildings, Liverpool. Mr. Case's services, as underwriter, have been secured upon terms satisfactory to the Directors, dependent in part upon the success of the Company, and without the payment of any " promotion money," either in cash or shares. It is anticipated that whilst the extensive connection al ready possessed by Messrs. Price and Co. will be retained and consolidated by the formation of a Company, the busi ness will, at the same time, be considerably increased in consequence of Marine Insurance Companies being now very generally preferred to private underwriters. The success which has attended the operations of Marine Insurance Companies in Liverpool, may be gathered from the present value of their Shares in the market, viz. : Amount Present Equal paid. price. to The Thames and Mersey £2 £7 0 0 250 percent pm. The British and Foreign 2 415 0 137 „ The Union 2 5 1 3 156 „ The Empire The Albion The Mercantile The strictest economy will be exercised in working, and the preliminary expenses will consist solely of the actual neces sary disbursements and legal charges. Applications for Shares must be accompanied by a payment of £1 per share, which will be retained on account of the full payment of £2 per share on the number of shares which may be allotted to the applicant, and will be liable to forfeiture if payment of the remaining £1 per share be not made at the time to be stated in the notice of allotment. Forms of application for shares may be obtained from the brokers, and also at the temporary offices of the Company, 4 and 5, Brown's-buildings, Liverpool. In cases where no allotments are made, the deposit will be returned without deduction. Wheeler and Wilson's L OCK STITCH SEWING MACHINES— Will stitch perfectly. SI NKERS. Messrs.

There is also great scope for useful outlay of capital in im provements on estates, by erecting new machinery, clearing waste lands, and irrigating.

Supposing £1,000,000 only to be invested at a difference of 4 per cent. between the rate paid upon bonds in England and received in Mauritius, it is evident that the profit on the paid-up portion ofth e . share capital, which would not exceed £lOO,OOO or £l5 O would be very large. remain (l ..er of the share capital of £500,000, together a r ],ount of first mortgages on first-class real wi T th h e t the pro perty, nich would always equal the amount of bonds issued, w? n .d thus give these bonds an unexceptionable security. •The legislation of Mauritius affords great advantages for the establishment of a Credit Foncier, It is the same as that of the French Code Civil, and a law providing a simple and effective registration of all mortgages has just been passed for the express purpose of facilitating the establishment of Companies to lend upon land. Under these circumst , inces an application has been made to the Directors of the Land Mortgage Bank of India, on be halt of a large number of the principal members of the Legis lative Council and Landed Proprietors of Mauritius, to esta blish a branch there. _ _ .

Sir, -By a resolution of ;he Committee of the Stock Ex- I change, passed this day, it b required that all new companies shall Issue at least one half )1* the number of shares consti tuting their nominal capita, and shall call up not less than 10 per cent. of the amount of such shares before being entitled to the privilege of being qu)ted on the Stock Exchange Offi cial List, Under these c'rcumstance3, and to comply with the regula tion above referrers to, the Directors have this day decided to reduce the £lOO shares into £5O shares, to make the nominal capital of the Company £1,000,000, in 20,000 shares of £5O each ; the first issu , - to consist of 10,000 shares, as already announced ; and that £1 shall be paid on application and £4 on allotment.

The DI ectors of the Land Mortgage Bank were of opinion that Mauritius promised an excellent field of operations, hut as the nature of the properties and tenures of land are diffe rent from those of India, to which the original subs:riptions of their lank were invited, it waA thought better to rai-e a separate capital and constitute anew Gems any, which, while connected with the Mortoage Bank by friendly relations, should yet be a distinct institution. The close connection between Mauritius and India renders this alliance peculiarly desirable, and will be the means of securing valuable busi ness to the new Company, while the expenses of .in office and establishment in London will be diminished by mutually advantageous arrangements.

In introducing the City Mercantile Club and Dining Hall Company to the public the Directors have pleasure in knowing that they are supplying a great public want, it being universally admitted that— A Club adapted to the constantly increasing growth and requirements of the commercial and mercantile world of the City of London, and A higher class public dining and refreshment hall are greatly wanted. The Club, with its private dining, reading, and smoking rooms for the exclusive use of members, will be conducted under the management of a committee, strictly upon the principles of similar establishments, with a small entrance fee and subscription, and a moderate dining-room tariff, adapted to the views of menof the commercial world. The establishment will contain from 30 to 40 bed rooms. Holders of ten shares and upwards will (subject to the ballot) be admitted to the membership of the club, without entrance fee. The public dining hails will be on a scale worthy of the City, and capable of comparison with any establishment on the Continent. The Directors have purchased in one of the best and most central situations in the City, in close proximity to the principal places of business, a magnificent range of buildings (recently erected under the superintendence of an eminent architect) in the centre of Cheapside, having nearly 30,000 feet of floor space, and pre-eminently adapted to the re quirements of all branches of the proposed establishment. It will be for the consideration of the Directors whether it is desirable to let off the ground and basement floors, the residue of the premises providing ample space for the re quirements of the undertaking, and should these floors be so let off they will alone command a rental sufficient to guarantee a substantial dividend upon the paid-up capital. The Directors have carefully considered the probable profits and returns of this undertaking, and their most moderate calculations show a dividend of from 30 to 40 per cent. The Directors congratulate themselves on having secured the invaluable co-operation of several gentlemen whose practical knowledge and experience will be truly desirable. In consequence of a large amount of shares having been already applied for (and a most encouraging number of applications made for Club membership),the Directors are compelled to add that the list of applications for shares can remain open for a limited period only. in the meantime applications for the unallotted shares must be made to the Solicitors or Secretary; the required deposit having been previously paid to the Bankers of the Company. The Articles of Association can be seen at the Company's Offices. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. N o. -- To the Directors of the City Mercantile Club and Dining Hall Company (Limited).

This Bank is established in order to meet a want which has long been experienced in Mexico—the want of those assured Banking facilities which have done so much to stimulate the industry and develop the resources of other countries. '1 he field before such an Institution, which Mexico and the South American States present, is most inviting. Its re sources in silver are boundless, while the climate of this wonderful country is such that almost every production of the soil can be cultivated to an extent which can scarcely be imagined. With the hoped-for successwhich is to be anticipated from the policy of the new Government, Mexico has a great future before her. Money there commands at all times a high re munerative price, ranging from 10 to 18 per cent., and, as the field will be almost free, the Bank will be able to select those securities which are ample and undoubted, on which to make its several advances. _ . It will also constitute a favourable feature of the Mexican Bank that, as a strong London Institution, which has already secured to itself promise of the support of influential Mexi can and South American houses, it will command the confi dence of local depositors, who are at the present ti ne in the hands of private money-dealers, but who, so soon as such a Banking Institution is established in their midst, will lose no time in transferring considerable deposits to such esta blishment, as offering a security, ample and sufficient, which the private money-dealers there do not afford. The Mexican Bank will commence its operations in Mexico, and the magnitude of the field there may be estimated by the subjoined statistics:— Imports cf silver into Great Britain from Mexico and South America (except Brazil), for toe eleven months ending November 30, 1863 . £5,678,913 Imports of gold ditto ditto 3,493,914 The exports from this country, consisting of Manchester goods and other l4ritish manufactures, are very considerable: and this trade will no doubt be extensively augmented as the empire becomes consolidated and the confidence of merchants in the stability of the Government is secured. The Directors of the Mexican Bank will also establish a Branch in Valparaiso, the great commercial sea port of Chili, and where the want of the facilities which such an institu tion could afford is much experienced by English and Ameri can, as well as the native mercantile firms, carrying on the great trade of that important territory. Arrangements are in contemplation for the incorporation of an existing successful Banking Institution with the Mexi can Bank. No promotion money will begtven in the establishment of the Mexican Bank, preliminary expenses to be confined to necessary disbursements. The remuneration of the Directors left to the Share holders. Prospectuses and forms of applications for shares may be obtained of the Brokers, Bankers, Solicitors, and at the Tem porary Offices of the Company, but no application for shares will be considered unless a deposit of £1 per share has been previously paid to the Bankers of the Company. The Articles of Association can be seen at the Offices of the Solicitors. In the event of no allotment being made, the deposit will be returned without deduction, and should the number al lotted he less than the number applied f.r. the payment in excess will be applied towards the amount due. --- FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

This was a case which raised a rather curious philological discussion with some interesting prac tical illustrations. It was an action of ejectment by the Duke against a farmer, one of his tenants, at Hanborough, in Oxfordshire, to recover his farm, on the ground of an alleged forfeiture on the fol lowing clause in his agreement of tenancy :—" The tenant to perform each year for the Duke of Marl• borough, at the rate of one day's team work with two horses, and one proper person, for every 150 of rent, when required (except at hay or corn harvest), without being paid for the same." The Duke's agent had desired the tenant to send a cart to carry coals from the railway station to the Duke's man sion at Blenheim. This the tenant refused to do, though he offered to send the horses and the man, contending that the Doke was to find the cart. This was the point in contention between the parties. The case was tried at Oxford before Mr. Justice Byles, who reserved the point, the verdict being entered for the Duke subject thereto. Mr. Huddle ston, Q.C., had obtained a rule on the part of the tenant to set aside the verdict and enter it for him. Mr. Gray, Q.C., and Mr. Cripps argued on the part of the Duke, in support of the verdict, and against the rule to set it aside; They contended that, according to the agreement, as the tenant was to do " team work," and it could not be done with out a cart, he was bound to find the cart. In the course of the argument of Mr. Cripps, Mr. Justice Crompton said, in the course of his reading he had met with the following lines, which seemed to show that the team was separate from the cart :- 66 Giles Jolt was sleeping—in his cart he lay, "Some waggish pilferers stole his team away. " Giles wakes and cries, ' Odd's bodikins, what 'a here? 66 Why, how now, am I Giles or not ? Si 6 It he, I've lost six geldings to my smart,,,, "' If not, odd's bodikins, I've foun d a cart. (Much laughter.) Mr. Justice Blackburn cited some lines from one of Wordsworth's poems—we believe from the Wag goner—the lines beginning thus: — "My jolly team will work alone for me." Mr. Cripps cited Walker's Dictionary ;—" Team, a number of horses drawing the same carriage ;" and so Johnson's Dictionary—" A number of horses drawing the same carriage. Mr. Justice Cr, mpton said these citations seemed to imply that the team was distinct from the car pps urged that the team without th e cart riage. Mr. would be of no use, and he cited a stanza from Gray's Elegy ; b s b ic o k rn le gylieeblde,hath broke ; "Oft "rr dhiedirthfuerhroarwvoosfti, ttohtehsetiur team m afield, stroke ( ' " Howoowjobcuowndedditdhethweyooddrsivbeentheieatrh theirHe also cited the description given by Caesar iar o the mode of fighting from the chariot adop - ed by the ancient Britons, who used to come out of their chariots and "percurrere per tenionem." The learned counsel also alluded to what he called the "graphic" account of th e b at tl e o f Bull's Run, in which it was stated that " the teamster cut the traces of the horses." Mr. HuddlestonTQ C., and Mr. Griffits argued on behalf of the farmer, in support of the rule to enter the verdict in his favour. They cited Bos worth's Anglo-Saxon Dictionary :—" Team: issue, offspring, progeny, a succession of children ; any. thing following in a line." Mr. Justice Crompton—Surely the word there must be spelt " teem P'' (Laughter.) , The leurued Cuuntel cited Richardson's ,Diction "We fairies that do run " 'By the triple Hecate's team, " From the presence of the sun, "'Following darkness like a dream; " Now we frolick.' —Shakspere's Midsummer Night's Dream. " am in love, but a team of horse shall not pluck that from me, nor who 'tis I love—Shakspere. " After the declining sun "'Had chang'd the shadows, and their task was done, "'Home with their weary team they took their way." —Roscommon. "'He heav'd with more than human force to move " A weighty stone the labour of a team.'—Dryden. " 'ln stiff clays they may plough one acre of wheat with a team of horse.'—Mortimer. " ' Any number passing in a line. " Like a long team of snowy swans on high " ' Which clap their wings, and cleave the liquid sky.' —Dryden. "To team (v. a., from the noun), to join together in a team, " ' By this the night forth from the darksome bower " ' Of Erebus her teamed steeds gan call.' —Spenser (Vtrgil's quart.)" After a long and interesting argument the learned Judges consulted together and then delivered judg ment. Mr. Justice Crompton said he thought that the duke, the plaintiff, had not made out his case so clearly as to sustain a forfeiture. In the modern sense of the term the word " team," to - day the least, did not clearly imply the cart as well as the horses. He thought that the meaning was that the farmer was to bring the horses and do the work he was set to. Something must be added to the agreement to make sense of it. It might be said that it was not stipulated that the duke should find the cart. But so neither was it stipulated that the farmer should do so. And then it must be considered that the duke was to prescribe the work to be done. And the farmer could hardly bring the proper vehicle or tackle before he knew what the work was. Moreover, the agreement was not to draw the coals, but to perform the team work. If it had been to draw the coals, then the tenant would have had to find the cart. But it was not so. The work to be done was not confined to agricultural work. The work might be to draw timber, or carry coals, or draw a plough or harrow, or what not. In all these cases the tackle or vehicle would vary. And if in all these cases the tenant was to find it, the contract would be very oppressive. He thought that it was enough if the farmer sent the horses and the driver to be put to such purpose as the Duke's agent might please. It was to be lamented that these contracts were not made more;clear ; but on the best con. struction he could put on the agreement it did not mean that the tenant was to bring the cart. Mr. Justice Blackburn concurred. No doubt it was a general legal principle that if a man con tracted absolutely to do a specific thing he must do it, and find the means to do it, as in the common mercantile case of a vendor contracting to sell goods " free on board"—that is, to put them on board free of charge, in which case, of course, he must find lighters for the purpose, though, on the other hand, the vendee must provide and name the ship. So here, if the contract had been to draw the coals, the farmer must have found the cart as well as the horsee. Bat here the Duke was to define the work to be done, and it must be work proper to be done by a team of horses. It might be to break up a field, in which case the tenant might say, "Hera is my team, and I am ready to do the work; but where is the plough ?" So, if he were set to draw timber, he might ask for clumps and chains to draw it with; so, if he were asked to draw coals, he had a right to demand the cart, for it was impossible that the team should do all these varied kinds of work without the proper tackle and vehicle. Mr. Justice Mellor differed, and thought that the f ar oer was bound to provide the cart. It might we ll h, - ‘ that the Duke might not have the proper vehicles te' do the work, for he was to do the team work, and ha could not do it without the vehicle or tackle. Th e eeh !ract was not merely to farnish the horses and man, 1)0 to do the team work, and that bound him to do and provide all that was necessary to do the team work. The majority of the Con:rt being, however, in favour of the former, the rule was absolute to enter a nonsuit, Mr. Gray observing, however, that, as it was ejectment, the Duke could bring another action anyhow. THE WEATHER AND THE PARES. - Yesterday was what is technically termed a grand day in the different Royal parks. From an early hour in the morn ing pedestrians and members of the nobility and gentry in carriages continued to flock into the parks, in order to wit ness the evolutions of the lady and gentlemen sliders and skaters upon the different sheets of ice. Princess Mary of Cambridge was one of the promenaders on the banks of the Serpentine, with her attendants, and her Royal Highness inquired at the Royal Humane Society's receiving-house as to whether skating was going on in Kensington-gardenst and whether any accidents had occurred. The thermometer at this institution, as registered by No gretti and Zambra's patent glass, showed that during Wed-. nesday night the mercury indexed 31f deg. At 9 o'clock yesterday morning the same glass showed 321 deg., being a little above freezing point. At noon the glass rose to 35 n o g f t e h v o e w ry ea in th d indication of iacecahtantre deg., being 3 deg. above freezing point. The barometer w as er. 29.63. The wind was I s ,E., and the weather was overcast. Last night the glass began to fall, and the wind t taking t h e place north-west, o r t h n w e the st , chopped s s h ta o t w e i present time on the Serpentine is 2in. thick, but exceed ingly dangerous. In the Royal Pond i n K gardens, the ice is half an inch thicker. The en . Binton lee in St. James's Park is only about 14 inches in thickness, and is in a most rotten and unsafe state. Owing to the admirable arrangements made by Mr, Young, the secretary of the Royal Humane Society, and Mr. Williams, the superintendent, the icemen, by great exertions, managed to clear the vast expanse of this river, if we except about 100 or 150 females and gentlemen, who . in spite of ell expostulations of Deputy-superintendent Murphy, the afternoon. Fortunately only upon the ice until l ate in only a few slight immersio ns i nsisted upon staving took place on this river. In the Re gent ' s-park about 3,000 skaters and s lid ers dis ported, a n d several serious accidents took place . Sh ortly before n oon H enry Childs. of 7, Bury-street, Bloomsbury, broke through the ice into 7 feet of water. He was rescued by one of the icemen diving after him. About half-past one a man named Geo. Addis, of 33, Duke's•mews, Grosvenor square, fell through the ice in 11 feet of water, and iceman Windyard, managed to get him out in a very exhausted state, the iceman nearly losing his own life in saving him. Three other persons were also immersed, but happily they were rescued. They were attended to by Dr. Norton, and were able to return home. The Royal round-pond had about 700 males and females upon the ice, but only a few immersions took place, end nothing of a serious character occurred.
