LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CIIANCERY, Jan. 25. PIIILLIPCON 77. GATTY-GATTY V. PHILLIPSON. • Thi3 was an appeal from a decree of Vice-Chan cellor Wigan]. The facts were that under certain deeds of settlement and appointment mentioned in the pleadings the sum of 4,5391. 53. 10d. Consols became vested in the defendants Edward Gatty and Edward Owen as trustees. The trusts upon which they held the fund were for E. P. B. Phillipson for her life, and, after her decease, upon trust for Richard B. Phillipson and Mary Ann B. Phillipson, who were the son and daughter of E. P. B, Phillipson, equally between them. In the settlement creating the trust the trustees had the power from time to time, with the consent in writing of Richard B. Phil lipson and E. P. B. 'Phillipson, or the, survivor of them, to invest the trust funds in the public funds of Great Britain or upon real securities. In the year 1837 the trustees lent 2,000/. of the trust fund to Richard B. Phillipson upon personal security, to be repaid by him at the expiration of six months from the death of E. P. B. Phillipson, and which is still outstanding. In March, 1838, the trustees ad vanced the residue of the trust fund (2,347/.55. 10d.) to a person of the name of Langstaff upon the secu rity of a freehold dwelling-house and shops in the town of Northampton, and since that time Langstaff has been declared a bankrupt. The first bill, of which Mary Ann B. Phillipson is the plaintiff, seeks to charge the trustees with the full amount of the trust-pro_perty, upon the ground that the loan of 2,0001. to RichaTd B. Phillipson was a breach of trust, and that the Northampton property was of inadequate value to such an extent as to melee it a breach of trust for the trustees to have lent the remainder of the trust fuead upon that security, and to make them liable for the loss. The case set up by the trustees was, that all the dealings with the trust property had been done with the sanction of the cestuique trusts, and that the Northampton security was of ample value at the time that the mortgage was effected. This defence composed the answer of the trustees to the original bill, and also the case of the cross-bill filed by them. The evidence respecting the estimated value of the house in Northampton at the time of the mortgage wee of a conflicting character. The Tice-Chancellor, however, decreed that the trustees should pay into Court the 2,0001. lent to Richard B. Phillipson, and that the Northampton mortgage should be realised, and the proceeds invested in Coniols, and the trustees declared liable to make up in stock the difference be tween the value of the funds so produced and the origin9,l amount of the stock. From this decree the defend ants (the trustees) appealed. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Bethel!, Mr. Walker, Me Wood, Mr. Basch, Mr. Giffard, and Mr. E. F. Smith appeared for the different parties. The Loxn CIIiNCELLOR, this morning said that the plaintiff's interest in the 2 ; 000/. extended only to one moiety, and therefore the decree of the Vice - Chancellor must be varied by ordering the trustees to bring into court only 1,0001. With respect to the Northampton security, the proper order seemed to be that it should be sold and the proceeds brought into courl., and after that any.of the parties should have liberty to apply. Douce accordingly. ROLLS' COURT, Jan. 25. Air. TURNER. moved, in a case the name of which he did not state, for an injunction to restrain the de • fendants from receiving two sums, one a sum or 8,0001. Consols, and the other a sum of 9,0001. Con sols, and from receiving the dividends thereof. The bill was filed by two sons of a testator, for the pur pose of setting aside two settlements made by the father upon the two sisters of the plaintiffs. The testator by those deeds, which were each dated on the 13th of November, 1846, settled the two sums of Consols upon his two daughters. The prayer of the bill was, that the deeds should be cancelled, and that the defendants (the daughters) should be restrained by injunction from receiving the stock, or from pro curing any transfer of it. The testator died on the 20th of September, 1840. _ _ . . . Lord LANGDALE granted the injunction until the 9,11 of February, and plaintiff's were to give notice if they moved to continue the injunction. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. m A NSION-HO US E. Dennis Ryan and John M. Kenna were brought before the Lord Mayor for final examination upon the charge of having assaulted Lewis Notley, a City policeman, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. The prosecutor, who had been for a con siderable time in the hospital in a dangerous condi tion, appeared for the first time to give evidence. He said, between two and three o'clock in the morning of the 6th inst. I was passing through Catherine-wheel-alley, Bishopsgate; on duty, and saw the prisoners with others making a great noise. I told them to go home. They passed on, but a woman who was with them returned and seiz -- A my hat. Ryan then came up, caught me round the waist, and with the assistance of M'irienna and another man, threw me down on the back of my head. I was then struck two severe ble:ws on my head. I can't say with what, but I believe with my truncheon, which I was drawing when I was knocked to the ground. I can't say who struck nee, for I was stunned and my senses left me. I was taken to the hospital, and have been there ever since. A boy, named John Neal, said,—.l was present and heard the policemen advising three men and a Woman to go home, and I saw Ryan hit the police man with his' fist and then kirk - him and take his staff. I afterwards sew Ryan run away, and I fol lowed him, calling " Police.' He dropped his hat, and he acknowledged at the station-house that the hat was his. While I was running after him I heard blows being struck, and a great noise in the direction which Ryan had just left. Evidence -of the policeman, in confirmation of vari ous parts of the statement mode aheve, was taken. Mr. F. T. Van flemert, medical student and dres ser at St. Thomas's Hospital, said Notley Tres brought into the hospital at a quarter to four o'clock on the morning of the 6.h inst., and I examined him and-found three severe wounds on the seals, and that he was suffering from the effects of a slight con cussion of the brain. There was a wound in the back of the head which appeared to result from a f a ll. Two of the wounds were evidently produced by a blunt instrument. The man had been bleeding pro fusely from all the wounds, and was in dan g er at the time. I have attend e d hi m s i nce , an d he has gone on beater than I expected. Ryao, up en being asked in the usual terms by the. 1.102 D 1114roa.wh!ther he wished to say anything in answer to so serious a charge, said, I saw the police man' who appeared to be in liqu or , s t r ik e a woman and knock her against a wall, and I told him not to he to fast with her, and that I should report his conduct at the station-house. I looked close at him to catch his number, and he then struck me with his fist and knocked off my hat. I called out to the wo man to go for a policeman, and I ran to look f)r one myself, but was taken into custody, and afterwards charged at the station-house with an assault which I had never committed. Mlienna said he was a violin player, and had been playing at a public-house in the neighbourhood ; after leaving which he went into an adjoining house and sat down with a friend, but was suddenly fixed upon by the police-officers who entered, as one of the assailants. The prisoners were then committed for trial, and the City Solicitor was directed to prosecute. It was stated in Catherine-wheel-alley, which is a place remarkable for nightly rows, that the beating - which the unfortunate policeman received had been intended for another who has been long unpopular in the place. GUILDHALL. William Ilack, of 6, Queen's -court, Holborn, was brought up for final examination, charged with being in Christopher-court, opposite St. Martin's-le-Grand, with intent to commit a felony. The prisoner was sentencec, to three months' im prisonment. . The Secretary of the Metropolitan Society for the Protection of Trade, 4, Old Jewry, called the atten tion of the Alderman to a Competitor of the renowned Joseph Ady, who had started up and opened in exctly the same line of business. He produced a letter which bad been addressed to Mr. W. Agars, of North Burton, in Yorkshire, informing that gentle man that he was entitled to unclaimed dividends in stock t o th e amoun t o f 8001. , an d u p on the receipt e! 2W. he (the wr it er ) wou ld g i ve th e nece ssary inf mation to obtain it. letter was signed " George Wilson, agent for the recovery of unclaimed dividends, 14, St John's -street, London." The society caused inquiries to be made at the place, and found that he did not keep the house, hut letters were taken in for him. He thought it would therefore be useful for the public to know that this new adventurer might, or g'cit not, if occasion required, be as readily found as Joseph Ady,. wbo was a. housekeeper of long standing. Alderman FisNis said,. he bad received several ofTfrs of such informatioe, to whi c h h e had sot been so foolish ,as tt),gi.ve any attention, and the p u bli cat i on o f th e soc i e ty s inqu i ry m i ght be of some benefit to the public. BOTV - STIek,'ET. James Callaghan, .RobErt and William Oarlock, and John Jeffrey, check and money takers, late in the service of the City and Iron Stearn -boat CAnpany; were placed before Mr. Jardine for further examin a _ tion, on the charge of conspiracy and embezzlement. Is transpired when the case was first heard, that one of the prisoners (Callaghan) had made a confe s ._ sion in the presence of Mr. Cattarns, tae solicitor of the company, and Mr. Aitchinson, their superin ttndent, implicating himself and colleagues in a sys ilem of fraud, which it was alleged Lad been carried on for years, and which was effected by the double sale of tickets to steam-boat passengers. •It was their duty to tear fresh tickets from the chick-book at each pier, and when they were delivered up at the station i THE SUN, where the passengers alighted they should have been at once examined and destroyed ; instead of which the prisoners, by collusion, continued to pass off the old tickets again and again, and share among them selves the produce of their sale. Mr. Cattarns stated that, owing to the continued absence of the principal delinquent (Jackson), the money-taker at the London-pier, he was unable to proceed with the case. If at the expiration of a second remand he should be in the same position, the com pany would probably have to proceed by indictment. The prisoners (by their attorneys) urged the utter absence of evidence to justify their detention beyond the statements of Callaghan, and eventually Mr. thUDINE consented to liberate the Horlocks and Jeffrey, on entering into their own recognizances to appear in a fortnight, to answer any charge that might then be preferred against them. His Worship required Callaghan to provide two sureties in 201. each, in addition to his personal recognizances, to ap pear at the same time. LAMBETH. Henry Harvey Saville, a young fellow who stood remanded since Saturday last en a charge of obtain ing upwards of 201. from Mr. John Bright, a gentle man residing on Brixton-hill, who has been for some years treasurer to the St. Anne School, and also a guardian of the parish of Lambeth, under a threat of charging him with the commission of an abominable offence, was brought up for re-examination. Mr. Henry S. Redpath, of the firm of Dean, Leeks, and Redpath, solicitors, Mr. Humphreys, and Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, appeared to prosecute; and Mr. Roberts attended for the prisoner. There were also present during the investigation several members of the Lambeth board of guardians and many gentlemen, ' the friends and acquaintances of the prosecutor. Mr. Clarkson stated the circumstances of the case at considerable length, and in conclusion said it was much to be regretted that the prosecutor had not, in the first instance, done that which he had made up his mind ultimately to do,namely, given the wretched person at the bar into custody. Mr. Bright, who is evidently a timid and nervous person, was here sworn, and the evidence he had given on Saturday last having been read over, he identified a number of letters and documents as being in the handwriting of the prisoner ; and part of these he had received from him. One of the documents so put in was a written acknowledgment in the prisoner's own handwriting, and written in the presence of a third person, in which he acknowledged that the accusation of an abominable nature was perfectly groundless, and expressed his sorrow for having made it. In his cross-examination by the prisoner's solicitor, Mr. Bright said he could not say they bad been walking in different directions, the prisoner and him self, when the former accosted him. The prisoner at that time was dreesed genteely, and was very different in appearance to the present. Was certain the pri soner spoke to him first, and asked him for some em ployment - and he asked him for his address ; but he (Mr. Bright) did not give his. He was not ac quainted with any officer at St. George's Barracks, nor did any gentleman come up to and speak to him while the prisoner was in his company. Did not walk down the Strand arm-in-arm with the prisoner, and could not say that he desired the prisoner to go away, though he knew he was following him. He (Mr. Bright) called at a shop in St. Martin's-lane, and the prisoner r T nained outside all the ti me h e was there, but not at his request. He did not propose a trip to London-bridge by one of the steamboats, but witness proceeded by one of the steamboats from Hun gerford to London-bridge, and he believed the pri soner was a passenger by the same boat. He had no conversation with the prisoner during the trip, but he would not swear whether he paid his fare by the boat or not. The prisoner left the boat at the same time that he did, and followed him up Gracechurch street. Did not request the prisoner to walk up Gracechurch-street after him, as there were a number of persons in that street who knew him. He (Mr. Bright) went into a shop in that street, but before going in he gave the prisoner half-a-crown to get his dinner, as he said he had had nothing to eat. Did not tell the prisoner when he gave him the half crown to make haste back; did not say such a thing sufficiently loud to enable the shopkeeper to hear it; nor did he say so at all. Whilst in the shop he ob served the prisoner outside with his head close to the shop-windows. Did not then complain to the shopkeeper of the prisoner's annoyance, nor request him to turn him (the prisoner) away. On leaving the shop he found the prisoner at the door, but he did not propose a trip to Greenwich. Some conver sation took place, and the prisoner proposed to go to Greenwich to see a friend of his, an officer in the College, who, he said, would satisfy him (Mr. Bright) about the representations he had made, and as to their being perfectly correct. The prisoner also pro posed, that if he (Mr. Bright) advanced him a sum of money on some jewels belonging to his mother, he should place the duplicates in his hands as a security, and these duplicates he said were in the hands of a person at Greenwich. No arrangement was made about the payment of interest, nor was there any thing said about his having anything Cr the loan of the money. He (Mr. Bright) took a return-ticket 'at the Greenwich station, and believed the prisoner took a return-ticket also, and it was his impression that he paid for it out of the money he had given him to get his dinner. Would not swear that he (Mr. Bright) had not paid for both tickets, but his im pression was that he bad not. On reaching Green. wich, the prisoner told him his friend, the officer at the College, was dead, but said that if he accom panied him to a public-house he would give him the pawnbrokers' duplicates for the jewels. He went to a public-house with the prisoner, and treated him to some stout, and th en it was that he, for the first time, discovered the sort of character the prisoner was. Notwithstanding hie discovery, however, he returned to town with the prisoner, and in the same carriage. There were one or two other persons in the carriage with them. That he would swear to. On reaching the Lon: ea-bridge station he gave the prisoner 55., and he went away. Did not recollect the prisoner saying anything on going away, but he gave him the money because he could not get rid of him in any other way. Could not account for not having given the prisoner into custody on his refining to leave him. Did not tell the prisoner on their part ing that ha should never want for a friend, and when he wanted money to write to him, nor anything to that effect ; nor did he know how the prisoner pro cured bis address, except at the shop in Graeechurch street. Soon after he received a letter from the pri soner, addressed to his house at Brixton-hill, and several others were sent in succession, but he burnt all he had received up to the period at which the priso ner gave him the written acknowledgment that the charge be had made was false and unfounded, and promised never to annoy him for the future. He (Mr. Bright) might have called as many as three or four times at the prisoner's lodgings to ascertain his character, but did not call as often as twenty times. 'He sent a friend of his to the prisoner, but did not represent him as an attorney. That person gave the prisoner 10s., and this sum he subsequently made good to him. The same parson was present when the prisoner gave the written acknowledgment that the charge he made against him (Mr. Bright) was unfounded, and gave the prisoner two sovereigns. The prisoner on that occasion was asked to state the nature of his accusation, and he said if they gave him the money (V.) he would give a °document in the nature of that which had been produced, and all of which was in the prisoner's handwriting. Mr. Clarkson was occupied for nearly three-quar ters of •an hour in reading over the letters sent by the prisoner to the prosecutor since September last. They were all to the same effect, namely, that if the sum named, and which was requested for various purposes, was sent to him it should be the very last time he would trouble him; and clearly demonstrated the recklessness with which this class of miscreants pursue their dupes from the moment they get them in their power. Mr. EILIOTT observed that the case was one which must go before a jury, and as the evidence, both oral and documentary, would extend to a great length, he should remand the prisoner until Wednesday next, to give time to prepare it properly. The prisoner was then remanded, the magistrate refusing to take bail for him. a meeting THE COUNTY RATE 1110 of deputations from various VEMERT.—On Wednesday dians connected with till:Jo"? rilbw unions boards in tb o o f f v u e s s r t - Riding of Yorkshire, purpose of promoting session, for the establishmint of c n o r ti e g nt w y ba brought into rarlianu,nt dugrino lb Bill which is to ero o Hs for the the pasting 70 , rma nton, for the b e a approaching s of thefoll presentow ingmanagement of county rates.
