The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Conseil, thence close te. Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Begets Woods and Abbcts Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley er Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways, will completely accommodate the local traffic, and throw open several extensive Coal fields and some tilo , salid acres of Wood land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. This Line is in some of its principal features the same as that already approve I of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Vail..y Company—will not comprise more than fifty miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied part of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction or any other existing Railway. This and the proposed Line from Crew: to Derby will also well accommodate the Potteries, giving t 3 that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and the south, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East. and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby t' Manchester. The co-operation of almost all the principal landowners from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield having been ob tained, this p..rt on of the line may be considered as secure A most influential Provisional Committee, consisting of land- owners and manufacturers, and others locally interested, will s'iortly be piziksiled.

Often as we have had occasion to direct public atten tion to the anomalies of that which, only b . ) a str,:tch of extravagant courtesy, can ha denominated " law,"—as administered by the inagistfli:l! sages of the comity and inuiiicipal we have never felt more strongly called upon to discharge that duty, than by the Roches ter ca,e, to which we devoted a parti;eraph. beaded" Ex trai:rdinaty Costs," in our paper of Wednesday last. A man is brought " before a full ix nch of county magis trates" at Rochester, charged with an offence, the hei itousne.4s of which, no doubt, it must have required all the wisdom of the Kentish squires." in the commission" t.) deal with, all the forms 0 , a pi,tty s« scion to give ade juit! eff i.t.to the itvpo4ii g ec , rerr on) if tryii-g. He was wcusoi 01'4. haviri tt , flatus: 4 e : ui4lerwood to the amount of ILLIAM MASTERS SMITH, EAI, o'ie penny, belonging to S,V of Cannier." It is well that posterity should be apprised of the " title, style and dignity" of the landed proprietor whose property had beeu thus flagrantly and extensively invaded. It is well that " Young England" sheald have the enthusiasm of its spirit animated by " a great fact" like this, so proper to confirm its aspirations for the times when our country rejoiced in the significant ap pellation of " merry England." What an august specta cle for the descendants of that peasantry who passed+ but a century ago, even, so large a proportion of their leisure in out-door sports and athletic pastimes,—what a noble manifestation of the chivalric generosity of the Kentishmen and Men of Kent,—are presented by the trial of such a delinquent as this relived JAME CADE, this devastating "GEORGE LOFT" of Meopham. "The judge are ranged—a terrible show :" the case is stated, evi dence is called, and there is damning proof that GEORGE LOFT, being instigated by the author of all evil, has " at the time, and place, and in manner articulate," cos• milted the inexpiable trespass and damage "to the amount of one penny," by cutting and damaging the un derwood. A witness had seen him in the act. The cul prit, overwhelmed by the enormity and irresistible proof of his guilt, acknowledges his offence. " The case is clear," (as the Alabama Judge thundered in the ear of Silas Fixings, according to the pleasant ballad of the " Alabama Duel,")--the six magistrates who have heard it adjudge LOFT to pay the damages—one penny : toge ther with sixteen shillings costs. This is an " equitable adjustment" with a vengeance ! The civil injury is assessed at one penny ; the costs — for the law harpies, constables, the clerk of the justices, and the great unknown, who has the residuary and larger interest in these fees,—at exactly ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-TWO TIMES as much as the damages 1 That nothing may be wanting to the dignified, humane, and purely disinterested character of the whole proceeding, WILLIAM MASTERS SMITH, Esq., of Canmer, the coin pleinant or plaintiff, the " wronged one,"—he whose rights of underwood have been thus feloniously and des perately violated to the amount of four farthings, is stated (though this fact does appear incredible) to have been sitting all this time on the bench. In his own per son, this " fine old Kentish gentleman," (as we imagine him to be,) is there—an unbiassed, indifferent, impar tial arbitrator, it may be, or rather (if we may judge by the sentence of the bench), over inclined to extreme forbearance and humanity towards the offender; but, as it provokingly happens, in the triune capacity of plain tiff, judge, and jury, in his own case:—a magisterial Brahma, from whose triple function and many• handed clutch it was not very likely that this penny marauder should escape. So this council of six condemned the man to pay the ld. in the shape of damages, and the sixteen shillings in the shape of costs, or in default of payment to committal to the House of Correction for one calendar month. The man has not the money, the magistrates have the option, so the prison has the man. WILLIAM MASTERS SMITH, Esq., we are afraid, must now summon up fortitude enough to bear manfully the damage of his underwood, although it is thus ascer tained to amount to one penny, but he may enjoy the proud satisfaction of having provided GEORGE LOFT with subsistence for one whole calendar month, at the expense of the county, indeed, and to be sure only on prison fare. What then? Has he not vindicated the majesty of the law ? Has he net bravely upheld the sacred and indefeasible rights of property? We marvel at the scandalous dis content, the inexcusable surliness, with which the pauper labourer and the lowerclasses of husbandry regard the circumstances of their own condition in reference to those of the condition in which PROVIDENCE has placed their landlords and employers—the lauded aristocracy of their neighbourhoods or districts. That these un reasonable and unreasoning industrial claases► should look with a jaundiced eye upon the wealth, the posses sions, the luxury of the rich—should be prone to con sider themselves little cared for and less protected by their superiors—should be apt to consider their " natural protectors" (as these latter term themselves) somewhat more given to listen to the dictates of selfishness and the suggestions of self-interest, than the promptings of an enlightened and enlarged liberality to others, especially to the poor and unemployed around them ; all this is most surprising. What can evince a more anxious soli citude for their moral welfare, and their inflexible per severance in the habitual discipline of honesty than these visitings of criminal derelictions, even where they ex tend to the sacrifice of but one pennyworth of property. At the same time we are somewhat curious to know what it is that large farmers—whether tenants or free holders—and a powerful squirearchy, who are opposed to the repeal of the corn-laws, and to every other measure of that kind which would certainly reduce the price of subsistence to the poor, and multiply the few comforts which the fiscal and political exigencies of the State have left them ; what it is they propose to them selves by the merciless straining of every penal enact ment which can be brought to bear upon offences intrin sically of the most trivial or indifferent character ? We were once weak enough to hope that Parliament would not have separated, notwithstanding the important de mands of the grouse shooting and Continental tour making at this season, without at least passing some measure to reform those statutes thus elaborately dis proportioning penalties to offences and costs to penalties, under which country justices and police magistrates " play such fantastic tricks" as make the wretches weep," and which are destined (we are firmly persuaded), at no distant day, to arouse the indignation and resentment of the public, and to replace such atrocious anomalies by some more consistent, more decent, more equitable scheme of apportioning,in every case the punishment to the delinquency. The Univ'ersal German Gazelle states that,&" Within the last few days ten extensive domains have been pur chased in the Grand Duchy of Posen, and there is every reason to imagine that the-se acquisitions have been made for the Jesuits. It is well known that Father ROOTETAN has been at Mock." It appears, from a letter from Constantinople, inserted in the same paper, that the French Ambassador has re ceived assurances from the Porte that the Sheik of the Drusea, who killed a French priest, shall be punished, and that the cotivt:nts shall be indemnified for the inju rn-s done to theta. Accounts from Lisbon to the 9th instant have been received. The election of Deputies to serve for the next four years in the eurtes took place throughout the king dom on the 3d. The supporters of the Cabral Ministry were everywhere returned by large majorities. The QUEEN and Court left the palace of Belem after :he elections. They were at Mafra on the 7th. Lisbon was perfectly tranquil ; there were reports, however, of emeutes in the provinces. -gee Madrid journals to the 7th have arrived. The QUEEN leaves St. Sebastian for Pampeluna on the 18th, where the Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS and the Duke D'AUMULE were expected to arrive on:the 24th. The Duke of SAN CARLOS is charged with making the hecesnary preparatioi,s fur their recvption. The Tienipo attributes the ill-success of the Spanish negotiations at the Court of Rome to the interference of Cardinal LAMBRUSCHINI, the Pupal Secretary of State. The FomeNto of Barcelona contains a c3mmunication from the Finance Minister, according to which ma chinery may be imported at a duty of 6 per cent, ad valorem, to be 7 per cent. if carried in foreign bottoms. General CoNcnA had resigned his command—a letter from Barcelona of the 9th, says : • " The resignation of General Concha produced a great sen sation here. It is said that the principal cause which led to this resolution on the part of the General was the arbitrary arrest of 120 persona by General Narvaez, while General Conchha was at the head of the army, and in pursuit of the insurgents. General Concha, besides, protested against the interference of Charo, who was the agent of the police in the time of the Count d'Espagne, and whom General Narvaez has taken away with him. This man, who has exercised so injurious an influence in Catalonia, has allied himself with the club of ultra-Moderadoes, established at Barcelona to prose cute the Liberals and exercise private acts of vengeance. " M. de Gispert, the ex-political chief, has been succeeded by M. de Enciso, who was political chief at Soria." Letters from ALdaga, of the sth of August, represent that town as in a state of commotion in consequence of a rise in the price of provisions of all sorts. CAstixEno, ho had been most active in st.arehing for arms and ammunition, had only found a few old muskets out of repair. He had however caused eleven persons to be arrested in addition to those now in prison. On the Madrid Bourne the Three per Cents. for cash were 3O ; for account, 30-i ; the Five per Cents. for accourt, 22*. We have received the I'aris papers of the 7th. The Joirnal des Debuts gives a report of a speech made by M. GrnzoT, on Sunday last, at . n. dinner given by his constituents at Lisieux. This skeecli. whiel, merits an attentive perusal, we shall endeavour to Ed loom for to-morrow. su IL was reported in Paris that Marshal SOULT WfiS 8110eiced et the cruel tyranny of BUGEAUD in Algeria—a tyranny exercised not only cn the unfortunite .Arabs, but on the French themselves—that he had determined to rucal him from Algeria. The College co - Justice of the colony had r•>monstrated with the home Government against many of Marshal BUGEA UD'S acts as illegal, and ha•l sent a memorial to the Minister, claiming his pro tection for the colonitls against the Governor. On this subject the Al yerie says : Persons ordinarily well informed announce the renal of Marshal Bugeaud. We believe. however, that the Ministry, uT,easy at seeing the Governor-General undertaking a war in Kabylia, in opposition io the will of the Chamber, has called Alarshal Bugeaud to Paris under some pretext or other, to pre vent him from engaging further in an undertaking generally blamed and disapproved of. H3wever that may be, Marshal Bugeend ie,expected n Pariervards !fig, yul, of t ugust. " 'rile Fame j4. , urnal contains a letter from Tunis of the 21st July, which confirms the reports of an assemblage of Turkish troops at Tripoli with hostile intentions to wards Tunis. Possession of the island of Gerbis, one of the richest parts of the Tunis regency, is stated to be the object of the Turks. The Bey of TUNIS was pre paring to defend himself. The Frenoh had sent the Neptune ship-of-the-line to guard the station at the Goletia at Tunis, and had sent two ships of war to Tripoli. The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS are to leave Bordeaux on the 28th to visit the Queen of SPAIN at Pampeluna. They return on the sth September.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Benjamin Wood, will undoubtedly be filled by Sir William Molesworth, whose previous services in the cause of liberal government, and whose address now issued, amply satisfy the wishes of a vast majority of the electors. It will be remembered that when the contest took place between Mr. Wood and Mr. Walter, a section of the Radical party coalesced with the Tories in supporting the latter. on the ground of his ultra opposition to the new Poor-law Bill; but that in spite of this, and of a most lavish expenditure of money, the majority for Mr. Wood was about 600, leaving many promises un polled. But now the Liberals of all shades of opinion are united in support of Sir William Molesworth, no other candi date would have the remotest chance. Mr. Jeremiah Pilcher, who has announced his hopes of being selected for the honour, is one of those waverers about whom it is unsafe to assume anything. He would fain be thought to be independent; but ii any public act of his may be taken as an index of his political predelictions, his vote for Mr. Baring, in opposition to Mr. Pattison, at the last City election, might be taken in proof of his Toryism. The Tories, however, disown him, and talk of putting up some more declared and consistent supporter of their principles. Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey is the third candidate named, but we believe by no means ascertained, as an tecedent to his consenting to stand, must be the vaca tion of his office as Commissioner of the City Police. Sir William Molesworth has - the advantage of a very powerful Committee, formed of electors from every district, parochial or sectional, in the borough, having canvassing -books al ready prepared, and all the machinery of an election in active operation; for which himself, and the Liberal party at large, have to thank the Southwark Reform Registration Association composed of a large number of the most active and influential electors. Among many erroneous statements which appear in the Times this morning, and one of which the Morning Advertiser has not escaped, is the assertion that certain pre liminary meetings of the electors had been attended by Mr. Black, the late editor of the Morning Chnmicle. That gen tleman has not taken the slightest part in the affair; and it is unaccountable how Sir William Molesworth's friend, Dr. J. R. Black, could have been assumed to have any con nexion with the Morning Chronicle, either past or present, as we are assured that his name, on either occasion, was not even mentioned with reference to that journal. For our selves, we -have the utmost reliance on the prudence and vigour of the Liberal electors of Southwark, and, therefore, on their success. LITERATURE. MY MARINE MEMORANDUM BOOK. In Tlu ee Volumes. By Hargrave Jennings. We should be very sorry to see any diminution of the eagerness after, and the ta,te for, nautical productions, which characterised the reading world a year or two back. We are so essentially a nautical people, have done so much to render our name memorable on the sea—witness the long list of our naval worthies, and the indemitable spirit and daring energy of our gallant tars—in short, have effected so much to be proud of in our relations with the mighty element, that works which tend to foster and confirm this spirit, and this national bias, as they des erve , every kind of en couragement.ghout to mOeue' Our sailors and our s hip s . a re fine sub jects for the novelist, let alone that strong-and exciting interest which must always attach to the sea for its own sake. Sea life, in all its phases. and the magnificent ocean, under all its unultitudineus changes, present inex haustible treasures to those naturally gifted in their ex ploration. None others should attempt them. With these books we have been greatly pleased. We do not hesitate to say, and we are sure that a perusal will con firm our remarks, that they exhibit first-rate originality and power, and a command of materials, and an ease and finish in style, and a b r illi anc y o f i ma gination, which we would consider likely to bring them into ex tensive circulation and universal favour. The battle and the breeze ; scenes at sea ; scene s ashore ; the humours of ship board, and an array of the most amusing and laughter moving stories, constitute the staple of these volumes. All is well done ; and some of the anecdotes are irresistibly comic. The first volume comprises a story of deep interest, told in the author's happiest man lier, abounding in incident, and well sustained throughout. The description of the chase s of the West Indiaman by the privateering man-of-war, and his fierce pursuit across the broad Atlantic, is detailed in such a way that it could fairly stand the test of a comparison with Cooper in his earlier and better works. Mr. Jennings, however, is no imitator. The work is full of original thought, and he possesses in a high degree that quality in which Cooper is lamentable deficient—wit. His pages absolutely ps• arkl- with briillaut passages. He has a high poetic feeling. The following passage, for instance, from his . observations on the decks, is true poetry, and poetry of a very high order :—" Before the suspected blood-thirsty disposition of one or two of the ships, I saw placed the prudently mollifying intervention afforded by a lowered port, one of the series of shutters which serve as eyelids, closed in t , uce to those glaring balls, t'ie Argus optics of the batteried ships, wlzse glances are flames." lhese books are full of amusement and drollery. We might multiply extracts from them. FINE ARTS. PORTRAIT OF MADEMOISELLE CERITO, We have just been favoured with a view of a splendid engraving by Every, from the original by F. Simoneau, of Antwerp, of a portrait of Mademoiselle Cerito. As a portrait it is most truthful, and as a picture it is a perfect gem. All those who wish to have a reminiscence of the fascinating little " realist" of Naples, who is so soon •o quit ui, should purchase this beautiful engraving. Simoneau, the artist, was the only instructor of the late Madame Soyer, a lady whose premature loss all lovers of art have never ceased to deplore. The original painting Simoneau is in the possession of Monsiiur Soyer. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA. The ball was well attended, indeed all the nobility in the neighbourhood were attracted to it, amongst wham we noticed the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort and the Ladies Somerset, the Marquis of Mardi°, d, Marquis of Anglesey, the Marquis of Donegal, Lords Wilton, Dillon, and others, amounting to 330. Dancing was kept up with much spirit, and all seemed highly delighted. Un Thursday a splendid silver cup', value 501., was sailed for by large class schooners of 140 tons and upwards. The follow ing splendid yachts started at ten o'clock, with a fine breeze from the N. W. :—Xarifa schooner, 185 tons, the Earl of Wil ton owner ; Gitana schot,ner, 168 tons, J.

A curious disr•overy wav made by Mr. Wright last week among the archives - at Southampton, of a book contain ing the vigmal naval laws of that port as early as the four teenth century. On e o f t h em i s , that if the majority of the sailors a vessel on the point of Failing were of opinion that the wind was unfavourable, and the vessel was wrecked after wards, the captain was responsible for the value of the goods lost. It is supposed that these are the earliest naval laws now extant. MONEY and COMM EW lAL NI!: S CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton market at' Liverpool yesterday, was very firm. Sales 7,000 b.,les, at full prices: 1,000 being on specu lation. Shares were very dull, and there was a decline in prices. . . . . . We hope it may not be correct, as stated in advices from the Continent, that at the great Zollverein meeting, now being held at Carlsrhue, Prussia finds itself, on account of its liberal principles, in a decided minority, because the whole weight and influence of that power would be thrown into the reduced duty scale, and the opposition of the other states must wax stronger if, in the present instance, the views of the Berlin Cabinet should be se. aside. If ever the injurious character of arbitrary constitutions was felt, it is in this special instance of commercial relations. Here are the poor folks of half Germany bandied about at the caprice of their princes, petty or great, merely because these are accessible to the narrow•minded influences of a few cramped manufacturers greedy for protection, and apparently the less able to support fair competition, the more they are bolstered up. The consumers suffer conse queni!y, both in respect to the price'they pay for their manu factures, and the restriction they put upon the foreign out lets for their corn. The Funds are down a little, and the weather is again the cause. The renewed firmness in the corn mar ket acts as an indicator of rather an unfavourable change in the opinion of the factors since Monday and Wednesday last, when wheat receded in value. Consols have been down from 994 to 99 for immediate transfer, and to 99 1 4 % for time, Exchequer-bills have been 495. to 51s. premium. There is some demand fur money to-day on ac count of the settlement in the Share market. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 102 1 / 2 94, and the Three per Cents. 99% 14.

The Prop essif Cauciiois of Fecamp mentions a circum stance which is very curious, if true. Our readers no doubt are aware that a junction, between Laffittes' Company and Messrs. Rothschild has lately been talked of, but the paper above quoted asserts that a pigeon fell from exhaustion at a place called Benonville, being no doubt en route for Eng land, and that a paper taken from it announces the fact a the treaty between the above parties having been actually signed on the 28th July. _ ONE CLOSING.

During the present week , the arrivals of Wheat, of home produce, coastwise, have been on a most extensive scale, they having exceeded those of any similar period during the whole of the present year, by a considerable quantity. The total supply has exceeded 15,000 quarters, chiefly from Essex, Kent, and Cambridgeshire. In addition to that large, quantity upwards of 2,000 quarters have come to hand by land-carriage. As might be expected, the show of samp l es of the above description of Grain on sale here was large ; still, however, there was an evident improvement in th,„ d e _ mand. At the commencement of the market several specu lators made their appearance, and who purchased nearly the whole of Monday's unseld suppli.s at that day's quotations ; hence the market was speedily re• lieved of the bulk of its arrivals. Yet the millers, Ls tar the last fortnight, were very cautious in their operations, and no advance on previous rates could be obtained by the factors. ' The advices which have reached us from nearly the whole of our large grain districts, are of an unfavourable character. The prevailing demp and otherwise unseasonable weather is much complained of; consequently, though the cutting of wheat has been partially coipmenced in Devonshire, Kent, Essex, &c., very little progresS has as yet been made in the fields. The imports of foreign Wheat are on the increase, they having amounted since our last to 11,340 quarters, on a portion of which home consumption duty has been paid. fielders of fine parcels would not sell to-day, excypt at an advance of Is per quarter, and at which the market closed firmly. Yesterday the duty on foreign Wheat declined to 19s, and it is pretty evident it will shortly re cede to 16s per quarter. in Corn under lock a few specu lative purchases were again effected, at extreme quotations We had a fair show of Foreign Barley, but that of English was small. Grinding parcels moved off steadily at full prices, while the value of malting and distilling sorts was well supported. The arrivals of Malt this week have amounted to only 2,860 quarters. The best superfine white qualities sold freely other kinds slowly at late rates. Of English Oats the supply did not exeeed 1,580, but of Irish .thtt loreign we retved upwards of 14,000 quarters. Tht: Oat trade may be considered steady, at full prices. Foreign Beans being in great abundance, the demand was in a sluggish state, and prices were with difficulty supported. The sale for Peas was firm, at full currencies. The same remark may be applied to Flour. The Seed market was somewhat inactive, and, in some instances, lower rates were submitted to. Wheat.

For the time of year, the supply of Beasts on offer here this murn , ng was tolerably good, yet the beef trade was somewhat active, at fully Monday's quotations. From Hol land we received 200 Beasts and 340 Sheep; from Germany, 30 Beasts; and from Scotland, 200 Scots. The numbers of Sheep were small, while the sale for them was steady at un altered prices. In Lambs, an improved business was trans acted at an advance of 2d per 81b. The Veal trade was steady, and the rates had an upward tendency. Pigs moved off slowly at previous rates. Milch Cows sold at 161 to 191 each. TO THE ELECTORS OF bOUTHWARK. OENTLEMEN, r rHE I)eath of your lamented Representative, B. WOOD, Esq., has caused a vacancy in the Representation of the Borough of Southwark ; In consequence thereof, I presume to offer myself as a Candidate for the honour of being his successor. I am induced so to do by the request of a number of the Liberal Electors of your Borough, who believe that my political opinions will be generally approved of by the majority of the constituency of Southwark. If this be the case, and I should have the honour of representing you in Par liament, my political conduct would be guided by the principles upon which I acted during the nine years that I was a Member of the House of Commons. I then belonged to that party in Parliament which was called the Radical i • and was a supporter of Progressive Reform, and of impro ving the Institutions of this country. I steadily voted for the Ballot, Triennial Parliaments, Ex tension of the Suffrage, and for the Abolition of the Property Quali fication of Members of Parliament. On every occasion I supported, either by my votes or speeches, the principles of Free Trade; and I may boast that I was one of the first persons who declaredthemseives, in the Horse of Commons, for a Total Repeal of the Corn-laws. On these, and all similar measures, on all Financial Questions, on all propo sitions to improve the condition and increase the education of the people, on all questions of colonial policy, on all matters concerning Ireland, and on all measures calculated to extend the commerce of this country, to unfetter its industry, and unshackle its trade, my votes have been given on the •Ilberal side ; and so again will they he given if I should again sit in the House of Commons as a Representa tive of the people. I have thus briefly stated what principles would guide my public conduct, if you should elect me to Parliament. In addition, it would be my duty to attend to the Parliamentary business of the Borough, and to watch over its interests : for the due performance of which duty, the best security I can offer you is to mention the fact that I am connected with the borough of Southwark by the ties of property. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, WILLIAM MOLESWORTH. 1, Lowndes-square, Aug. 14, 1846. NOTTINGHAM AND MANSFIELD RAILWAY.

(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) ELLIOTT V. TAYLOR. _ Mr. Horn e r, assistant to the plaintiff, was galled, and proved the making up of the medicines generally. Draughts were charged at Is. 6d. each ; he could not readily say what the in gredients were, as they stood " repeated"—" repeated"—and he could not find the first. The SECONDARY said, in all probability the ingredients and advice were mixed up together.—( Laughter. ) The witness said he wily knew wh:it was charged to patients for medicine, and not its intrinsic value. He was nut in trade on his own account yet.—(Laughter.) Mr. HoiteY then submitted, as a point of law, that the plaintiff suing as a surgeon and apothecary could not recover ; that as a surgeon he could not charge for rne:iicines, except it was ineidetital to an operation; and that his character as apo thecary was merged in the higher one of surgeon. No surgical operation had been proved. The SECONDARY said he would take a note of the objection, but could not agree. .Mr. Tavton objected. The SIiCONDAAY said, there was a great difference between taking a note, and reserving the writ ; he should not stay the writ should the verdict be averse to defendant, as a summons might be taken out. Mt. HonitY then urged that the defendant's not pleading ought not to be taken as an admission of the debt, but he had been obliged to abandon his ease through the venue being laid at Bristol ; although, when he did not plead. plaintiff could alter it to London. Had defendant pleaded and lost his case at Bristol, be might have been subjected to animadversion, and perhaps punishment, for putting plaintiff to unnecessary expense, The Learned SECONDARY thought that that fact had nothittg to do with the fact of whether medicine had been sup plied or its value.—Verdict for the Lull amount. PALACE COURT.-(THIS DAY.) PILLING V. HANNELL.—REFUSAL TO PAY A DEBT UNDER 201. In this case it appeared that the plaintiff, who is a coal dealer at Paddington, had supplied the defendant from time to time with coals to the amount of 161. 16s. Plaintiff had repeatedly applied for the cash, but was often put off with nothing but promises. At length, however, defendant, addressing plaintiff, said, 't As the debt was under 201., ho could not think of pay. ing it at all." The defendant was undefended by counsel. he CHAIRMAN (Mr. Brent) having addressed a few words to the jury, the latter returned a verdict for the plaintiff; the whole amount to be paid instanter, with costs.

His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England sat in his pri vate room, in Lincoln's Inn, to-day, for the purpose of hearing any applications that might press. COPYRIGHT OF DESIGNS ACT.-THOMPSON BROTHERS AND SONS V. STRACHAN AND OTHERS. Mr. ROMILLY (with whom was Mr. J. D. Chambers), applied ex parte, on behalf of the plaintiffs, whe are extensive calico printers carrying on business at Clitheroe, for a special injunction to restrain the defendants, Messrs.. Holt. and Bond, who are calico printers at Manchester, from printing and pub lishing the pattern of certain prints on calico, for the inven tion, publishing, and selling of which the plaintiffs, under the Copyright of 'Designs Act, had a protection of nine months. and also to restrain Strachan and Roan, two of the other de fendants, who carry on the business of warehousemen in Friday street, in the City, from selling any of the prints, which were copies or imitations of those invented by the plaintiffs. From the statements of the Learned Counsel it appeared that in the month of April last the plaintiffs invented a pattern for ladies' dresses, which they den ,, minated a coral ornamented check, which had been very much admired, and for which there was so great a demand that the defendant thought fit to pirate it ; immediately upon. discovering this the plaintiffs took proceed. ings against the defendants, and ultimately the present bill was filed for the purpo,e of obtaining an injunction to restrain such piracy. His HONOUR, without the least hesitation, granted the in junction. No other applications of any interest were made before his Honour during the remainder of the day. The plaintiff in this action is a surgeon and apothecary in Finsbury Pavement; the defendant is an eating-house-keeper in the Minories. The claim was for S9l. for medicines sup plied to defendant. Mr. TA r LOR, the plaintiff's solicitor, deposed to a conversa tion with the defendant, when the latter admitted the debt, and that he was further indebted in four bills of exchange. Mr. HORRY, for the defendant, elicited that the venue had originally been laid at Bristol—the object was to expedite the trial. • Both parties residing in London, the venue might have been laid in Surrey and tried a t Croydon. Defendant slid not plead to the action, and he (Mr. Taylor) then took out a sum mons to change the venue to London.
