They ' - ~ was not entitled to Any compensation at all 4tll, as it ..,, was completely in the form of a gratuity. lst Of ;4A5' Victoria, c. 37, completely abolished the righ -,, to .......... receive fees, and a commuted salary of 6,0001. ~,..1. • .P.',,,."' -',,W".4.9 was allowed to the Lord Chief Justice in i 4""" hf - li \,,,s___ , fees. Mr. Jefferies's fees being thus abolished, he made an application to the Lord Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury for compensation, but they declined to allow him any compensation for his first class of fees, because it was not mentioned in the report of the Commissioners; and on the fourth, because it was reported against. Mr. Jefferies then made an application to the Lord Chief Justice, who was clearly of opinion that he was entitled to compensation on the first class of fees ; but he was doubtful as to the fourth class. The Lords of the Trea sury have now shifted their ground, and decline to allow compensation, on the ground that he held the office during pleasure. In this they were decidedly wrong, as tile case was met by the Ist and 2d of William IV., sec. 4, chap. 35, which enacted that the fees received by persons holding offices at pleasure should be regarded as matters of right, and compen sation allowed for them.—The rule was granted. a nd kfc't . d Cheshire, 1 kingba-- 7- - P er" 4 { incolusbire, hares " ,th l / 2 andN o F id ~ Bv3iirllt , and Ge ..... a „ s , 21 3 / 4er r !reeforashire, " Nh 7 ., 16.618.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. ROLLS' COURT, Nov. ]9. Some petitions remaining over since yesterday, as well as some orders of c ourse , were disposed of. STOCKEN V. DAWSON. Mr. TURNER resumed his arguments in this case. Mr. ROUPELL followed on the same side, and contended that thii was i case which properly came within the jurisdic tion of this Court, and was not, as had been contended, a matter exclusively for the consideration of the Court of Bankruptcy. He conceived that it was the practice of the Court not to divide assets until the trade debts had been satisfied; because, in fact, until this had been done, no just distribution of the same could be made. Mr. KINDERSLEY replied at great length, and contended that trade debts were not entitled to any priority of payment over other equitable claims His LORDSHIP-It has been contended by the other side that there is:a lien on all description ofproperty, which I think very questionable. kr. KINDERSLEY—I am going now to call your Lordship's attention to that question. (The Learned Counsel then pro ceeded with his argument, and cited several authorities in support of his position). His LORDSHIP decided in favour of the plaintiff, and or dered the costs to be taken out of the estate. The Letters of Allotment in the above Railway are this day- Posted ; and the Committee of Direct Ors have the pleasure of in forming the Shareholders that the surveys are on the point of com pletion. and' nt, doubt is entertained as tothe plans, &c., being lodged in good time . to comply with the standing orders of Parliament.

SYMONDS V. THE MAYOR OF CAERMARTHEN. In this case Mr. Williams made an application on the part of Mr. Symonds and five others, in whose favour the bur gesses of Caermarthen had voted for a mandamus to receive their occupation of office as Town Councillors, or for a man damus for a new election, on the ground that no valid election had taken place as described in the Municipal Corporation Act. It would be seen by that Act, that the Mayor of the Town was bound to return a list of persons elected not later than two P.M., on the day after such election had taken place. In this case the election had taken place on Saturday the Ist of November, and the return should have been made by two o'clock on Monday, but instead of that it was not made until Tuesday morning. The Municipal Corporation. Act, section 51, required that the persons elected should sig nify their acceptance of the office in writing within five days from the period of their election, or they should be liable to a fine, and the office should be considered vacant. In this case as no return was made by the Mayor, no acceptance was given, so that there was no town council at all.—Mandamus for a new eleetion was granted. CHILD V. THE CHARING-CROSS BRIDGE COMPANY. Mr. SAUNDERS applied for a rule to show cause why the Chafing-cross Bridge Company, formerly known as the Hun gerford and Lambeth Suspension Bridge Company, should not issue a warrant to the Sheriff for the county of Mid dlesex, to call together a jury to estimate certain damages caused by the operations and works of the Company in the formation of their bridge.

At a Board of Directors of this Company, held at these offices the 22d day of October, 1845, It was unanimously resolved, First—That the East India Railway Company was formed in the spring of this year, after many months of preliminary discussion and communication with official anthorities, for the purpose of carrying out the views and objects of the projectors in the introduction of railways into India. Second—That the promoters of the undertaking 'abstained from adopting any measures towards the. formation of a company until they had satisfied themselves of the di.position of the Government of India to support the undertak'n by pecuniary aid in some shape, on which basis this Company was aoeordingly established, its object being (as stated in the prospectus) •to execute the line of railway which should be selected by Government, with the ulterior exten sions and developments consequent upon it. Third—That, in furtherance of these views ' the Managing Director of this Company proceeded to Calcutta in the month of July last, accompanied by a staff of surveyors, for the purpose of making the necessary surveys, obtaining the requisite information, and of ascer taining the views of the local Governmont, prior to the final arrange ments for commencing operations. Fourth—That the information obtained in the course of several years of preliminary inquiry inclined the projectors to the belief that, subject to any unforseen cirenmstances, the line from Calcutta to the north-western provinces, by Mirzapore, was the most needed by India, and most calculated to yield a profitable return for investment of capital, and it was therefore that line which was advocated in the first communication with the Government, the selection being left to the Government. Fifth—That subsequent to the formation of this Company, various projects have bees announced to tIF., public for constructing railroads in Western India, some of them 'forming part and portion of the scheme of the East Indian Railvray Company, and to which the surveys and the operations of the Committee in Calcutta may pos sibly at this moment be directed as an important feature in the de sign of Government. Sixth—That under these circumstan, es it appears to this Board to be their imperative dnty in Of ; interest of this Company to adopt such measures as will have the t tffect of securing to the Company the benefit of their original scheme i n its full integrity. Seventh—That with this view, end in order to prove to the Go vernment of India their full mea means of carrying out any arrangemen:,s which it may be disposed to mai rc with this Company for the 'zon struction ofrailways on an extended stale (in the event of its, being essential to•the scheme of the .Government so to commen•ce), it is desirable that the capital of this Company should be increased to ten millions, by the issue of new shares. Eighth—That 129,000 shares of 501. each be created, en which a deposit of ss. will be forthwish payable ; that of this !dumber 80,000 shares be distributed rateably ":among the approve, holders of the Scrip already issued, in the proportion of one new for one old share; and that the remaining shares, s abject to the necessary allotment to the new Directors, be reserved , to be disposed of hereafter, as may be found advantageous for the inter. !sts of the undertaking. Ninth—That these resolutions be advertised in the Daily News papers, for the information of tin Pr vrietors and the public. I ;FORGE LARPENT, Chairman.

Amongst the numerous projects recently brought forward for con necting important towns and districts in England by means of rail ways, no direct line of communication from Exeter toTavistock, and thence to Bodmin, ' has attracted the attention of the public.. The South Devon Railway from Exeter to Plymouth and .:I)evonport, and the Cornwall Railway, proceeding from those ports, but not approach ing Bodmin within several miles, afford every sinuous, inconvenient, and imperfect roots between the two terminal points of the proposed line, the latter of which is still unsupelied with any immediate rail way facility. The Bideford and Tavistock Railway —now in projec tion—assisr ed by' the Exeter and Crediton Railway, will supply in like manner a very circuitous course of communication between Exeter and Tavistock; but all these lines leave the midland districts and several important towns and villages totally void of railway conveniences. The proposed Exeter, Tavistock, and Bodmin Railway, however, commencing at the City of Exeter, proceeding by or rtear to More ton-Hampstead, and throwing out a branch . to Ashburton in its course across the Forest of Dartmoor, will pursue a direct line to the Parliamentary borough of Tavistock ; and, passing_ by or near Cal lington and Liskeard, will ten : initiate at Bodmin, thus providing a direct channel of intercourse in line not exceeding fifty-six miles in length between the two terminal places, an 4 furnishing the 'inter vening towns and villages with the means of immediate transit to Exeter in the east and Bodmin in the west, and extending from those places to all parts of England. The existing railway from Bodmin to Wadebridge will complete the line to the coast of Cornwall, in the Bristol Channel. Thus the direct line from Exeter to Bodmin,;with the proposed branch to Ashburton; will unite the whole of the' midland districts of Devonshire and Cornwall, comprising a tract of country occu pied by a large population, and unrivalled for agricultural produce and mineral wealth. A prospectus and a map of the line are he course of preparation, and, with . the names of a powerful Provisional Committee, will shortly be published. In the interval, further information may be' obtained from Messrs. Phillips and Son, No. 28, Lawrence Pountney lane, solicitors to the undertaking ; and at the offices of the Com pany, No. 37, Gresham-street, where application for shares may be made. mADRA S, NELLORE, AND ARCOT RAILWAY COMPANY.

ENGINEERS, John Hawkshaw, Esq. Edward Woods, Esq. This railway is designed to connect, by the shortest practicable route, the port of Liverpool with P res t on an d ot h er places to t h e northward, and with Blackburn and other places to the eastward, and to supply Manchester, Wigan, Bolton, Oldham, Stockport, and other manufacturing districts in, Lancashire, and the West Riding of Yorkshire, the advantage of direct railway communication with Southport and the west coast of Lancashire. One portion of this railway will diverge from the present line of the North Union Railway r.t or. near Farrington, and by forming a communication with the Illackburn and Preston Railway there, will accommodate the traffic both of Preston and Blackburn, and the places beyond. From Farrington it will proceed by Ormskirk, and thence past Kirby (where it will form a junction with the Liver pool and Bury Railway), and terminate at the intended new sta tion of the Grand Junction Railway Company at Edge-hill, Liver pool, from whence there will -be access to the north and south docks, as well as to the Lime-street station in that town. This portion of the main line will be twenty-four miles In length, and will bring Liverpool within twenty-seven miles of Preston, and thirty-three 'miles c f Blackburn. Another portion of the under taking will consist of a trunk line from Southport, passing St. John's, in the village of Burscough, near which it will intersect and form a junction with the line from Farrington to Liverpool, and proceed thence through the Douglas Valley to Wigan, where it will a vail itself of the North - Union station in passing through the town, pro ceeding thence by Hindiey, Atherton, Tyldesley, Ellenbrook, and Worsley, it will form a junction with the Liverpool and Manchester Railway near Eccles, and with the Manchester, Bolton, and Bury Railway in Pendietos. By means of a junction with the Bolton and Leigh w a y at Atherton, the advantages of this line will be extended to ',„he town of Leigh. The length of this trunk will be about twenty- eight miles of new line, bringing Southport within thirty-three mil ea of Manchester, sixteen-and-a-half of Wigan, a n d twenty six of Bolton, and reduc ing the time occupied in the journey between Southport and Man chester from four hours, to -little more than one, and between that favourite wateriag-place and other manui:ac turing districts in like proportion; at the same tune substituting ibr a dilatory and expensive co means of trans oprt, the dispach and economy of a thorough railw a y mmunication. The line between Wigan a'.l4 Manchester will pass through a popu lous district, possessing e x4 .,ensi - ie manufactures ; and the coal-field it will traverse and lay e •pen to the man u f ac t ur i ng districts, as well as to Liverpool, is s ec .- and to none in this part of England in richness and variety. also afford increased facilities for con vey i ng the pro T d h u i ee s railway of the w abundant agricultural district, lying between the River Alt an A th e Douglas, to the manufacturing communities of Lancashirei‘ •nd Yorkshire. .standing the present uncer t a i n, dil a t ory, and expensive maNveiti access to Stockport, the numbers resorting thither are very great-, and rapidly increasing, and it cannot be doubted that the faci lities and economy hi time, as well at money, of a direct railway ce,mmunication, would give - rise to an accession of traffic far exceed.. 'lug the ordinary ratio of estimated increase. The benefits resulting from the construction of these lines will be obtained at a comparatively small outlay. The country throughout is easy, and of a level character, rendering the works light, and the gradients highly favourable. There are no engineering difficulties, and the advantage of terminal stations, and access to and through the principal towns, arc already provided by the establishments of the Grand Junction, Manchester and Leeds, North Union, and Liver pool and Bury Companies, whose cordial co-operation is guaranteed by the participation of those Companies in the capital, and conse quently in the success, of the undertaking.

OFFICES IN LONDON-449, West Strand, and Paddington Station. PROSPEC. The object of the proposedundertaking TUS is to unite the city of Exeter with the towns of Yeovil and Bridport, as forming a part of the great integral scheme for making the best direct railway cemunica- Von from the metropolis, through Exeter to the important seaports and harbours in the British Channel, as well as completing the chain of south coast communication from the ports of Dover, Portsmouth, and Southampton, to Exeter, Plymouth, and Falmouth. Between Yeovil and Westbury, the Wilts, Somerset, arid Wey mouth Railway will form the main line of communication, at which latter place it will join a proposed extension of the Berke and Hant4 Railway from Hungerford, carried through the Pewsey Valley, as shown more distinctly in the accompanying plan. The Berks and Hants, and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Bills have already passed, and those lines are under construction. The Great Western Railway Company Will apply for the extension from lanngerford to Westbury, only thirty-five miles, in the approaching session. The line ofthe Exeter Great Western Railway is intended to Cora imam at a distance of about three miles from Exeter, by a Auction with the Bristol and Exeter Railway at Stoke Cation, and prodeed ing thence by Otter) , Saint Mary and Hotiltbn, will pass into the Valley of the Axe at Axminster. Fronk that place, the main line, in one direction, will continue along the same valley, passing within about three miles of Chard (which town it is proposed to connect with the main line by a short branch), and through Crewkerne, to , wards Yeovil, near to which town it will Join the Wilts, 80merset, and Weymouth Railway. From Axminster, the main line, in the other direction, will proceed near to Lyme Regis, and thence to ridport, wh - ,,re it will also join the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway, leading towards Dorchester and the coast line to South ampton. The fashionable watering.ptlee of Sidmouth will be made acces. sible to 'visitors from Golulon and all parts of the country, by a branch to that place from Ottery Saint Mary. By reference to the map, it will be seen how effectually this line will supply the only link wanting to complete the continuity of the South Coast Lines, and will afford the best weans for an entire through traffic from Cornwall and Devon to the different ports of Lyme, Bridport, Weymouth, Poole, Southampton, Portsmouth, Shoreham, Brighton, Hastings, DoVer and Ramsgate. it is also a very important feature in the undertaking, which is now submitted to the publit, that it gives railway communication to a line of country hitherth unsupplied with this essential means of In tercourse with this Surrounding districts ; many towns of importance will have the benefit of local intercommunication, besides being placed on a main and direct line of transit between the metropolis and the most valuable seaports on the southern coast of England. The inhabitants of the city of Exeter, and of all places beyond it, will be brought to a reduced distance of 177 miles between Exeter and London, instead of 194 miles, the whole being worked uninter ruptedly by one Company, on the same gauge, and on a line superior to any that can be carried for the same object, in any other direc tion, whether considered with reference to the shorter new line re quired to be constructed, or to the comparatively easy gradients that can be obtained at a reasonable cost. • Under these circumstances there can be no doubt that this railway will not only confer incalculable benefits on the districts through which it is intended to pass, and gene ra lly on the mineral and agri cultural produce of Devon and Cornwall, but will conduce to the vast national object of rendering the harbours of Plymouth and Falmouth most serviceable for every purpose of commerce, more easily acces sible for the arrival and dispatch of foreign mails and passengers, avoiding the delays and dangers of Channel navigation, and in case of war, contributing to the security of British property, whether at sea or on shore. A mere glance at the map will satisfy every inquirer of the com mand this line must possess over an unusally large amount of export and import trade, whether in passengers or in goods, independently of the local resources of the country itself, which are known to be very great. One important item of local traffic on this line will be the article of co Al, with which the district is at present but imperfectly prov'dal on account of the high price necessarily paid for land carriage, limit ing very much the consumption by a large class of the population, who must be greatly benefited by reduced cost of transit by railway. The district from which coal may be brought is in the neighbourhood of Radetock, in Somersetshire, to which place a branch of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway extends, and brings the coals direct from the pit's mouth on to the line of railway. The interests of the landed proprietors have been consulted through out the line, and it is confidently believed, from the strong local sup port it has received, that the legislature will sanction this measure without hesitation. It is agreed that the line shall be worked by the Great Western Railway Company, under a lease, as in the case of the Wilts, Somer set, and Weymouth Railway ; in consideration of which, the Great Western Railway Company have undertaken to guarantee to the proptiektra four per cent. per annum upon the paid-up capital, with an increase of one-half per cent., in proportion to any dividend of one per cent. upon their own stock, exceeding eight per cent., which in crease shall be payable to the proprietors of the Exeter Great Western Railway Company, in addition to the guaranteed rate ; and the Great Western Railway Company are to become responsible for all the preliminary expenses, in case the Act shall not be obtained within the two next sessions of Parliament. The capital will be raised in 26,000 shares of 50g. each, upon which a deposit of Pt per share will be paid upon subscriptions, and no further call will be made previously to obtaining the Act of Incor poration. Interest at four per cent. per annum will he allowed, after the Act shall have passed, on the deposit, and on all paid-up calls during the construction of the line, and until the dividends are provided for, under the guarantee of the Great Western Railway Company. The notices are already given, and the plans and books of re ference will be deposited in time for the Act to be applied for at the meeting of Parliament. If the Act should not be obtained, as before mentioned, the deposit will be paid back to the proprietors, but with out interest. A decided preference, will be &en to landolvnera and to partial PUBLICATIONS. MANY THOUSANDS of POUNDS STERLING to be GIVEN TO the SUBSCRIBERS to the PICTORIAL , TIMES.

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.—On Monday Mr. George Barr, Excise officer, of Brill, was discovered suspended from a beam, dead, in a malt-house, the property of Mr. Parsons, brewer. He was forty-eight • years of age, and has left a wife and numerous family. He was for many years on duty as an Excise officer in London, but had been removed to Brill about two years. On the maltster going to the malt house on Monday morning, he found the deceased suspended in the upper part of the building, from a beam, by a halter. He had thrown himself from a ladder, which he had placed for the purpose. His hat was near him, in which was placed a sheet of paper, on which the deceased had writton on one side—" My dear wife, pray to God for protection ; the blessed angels have been with me ;" and on the other—" Whoever finds me, send some female to my blessed wife, and may the Lord Jesus Christ protest her and my beloved children. I have had so much trouble with my son George, that I could not bear up against it. 0 may the Almighty turn his heart, and him (he) put his trust in him. 0, my dear wife and children, pray to God, and he will protect you all. Send to your brother: you will have a hard struggle, but the blessed God will protect you. I have seen the angels, and I trust I shall be happy in the next world.—Your loving husband, G. BARR."

VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, Nov. 19. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) WHITEHEAD V. BENNETT. Our readers will recollect that this case came before the Court on Monday upon motion for a receiver, and that upon that occasion it was ordered to stand over to see if they could not come to some agreement among themselves. Mr. J. PARKER stated this morning that no proposal had been made to his clients which they could accept, and there fore he was afraid he must go on with the motion. Mr. STuntrebbserved that it could not be proceeded with to-day, as he liaditot his btief in* Court. It was• ultimately arranged that the matter should come on first to-morrow. BLACKBURN V. STANILAND AND SONVERRY. The bill in this case was filed by the plaintiff, who is a wine -merchant, for the purpose of .obtainin th decree of Mt Court that the cibfendants vete liable a , the property of the business alleged to have been carried on by the defendant Staniland in his character as executor, and also for the assets which were admitted to have been re ceived by both the defendants on account of the estate of a gentleman named Thomas Clifford. From the statements in the bill it appeared that some years ago Mr. Thomas Clifford carried on the business of an innkeeper at the Palace Inn, Sheffield, and in that character he had dealings with the plaintiff, who was a wine-mer chant, and became indebted to him to the extent of 991. The plaintiff brought an action against Mr. Clifford for the amount, but before the proceedings advanced so far as the plaintiff's obtaining judgment, Mr. Clifford died. The defendant Staniland, who was his sole executor, carried on the business afterwards, as it was alleged, as execntor of Cliffcrd, but, as he asserted, for the creditors. The other defendant, Mr. Sowerby, who was a solicitor, it was alleged, had acted as such to Staniland in his character of executor. In these characters certain funds catneinto their hands, which they deposited in the hands of Messrs. Shores and Co., bankers of Sheffield. These funds were lost in consequence of the bankruptcy of Messrs. Shores, and the object of the present bill was to compel the defendants to make good the amount, and also to compel Staniland to account for the profits he had made by carrying On the business of the Palace Inn, at Sheffield. Mr. Stuart and Mr. Campbell appeared for the plaintiff. Mr. James Parker and Mr. Beaten were Counsel for the defendants, and contended that they were acting as the ser vants of the creditors, and as such were not liable personally to make good any losses that had occurred. His HONOUR at the conclusion of the argument gave judg ment, dismissing both the original and supplemental bills with costs. (Before Vice-Chancellor IVIonAm.) SHARP V. TAYLOR. His HONOUR pronounced judgment on the exceptions taken in this case by the plaintiffs and defendants. The first of the plaintiffs' exceptions was allowed, the account being subject to a correction by striking out the sum of 1,000/. ; the other exceptions were allowed. On the eighth, which was that the Master had committed a certain witness, and received evi dence, his Honour said he had seen the Master, who is refer ence to this said he conceived himself justified in receiving the evidence, for reasons not stated in Court, but such as in his Honour's opinion ought not to have prevailed. He was extremely sorry to allow this exception, but Mr. Burge's client, (one of the defendants), would have the benefit of its going back to the Master; the 3d, 4th and sth exceptions being in consequence drawn with it again before the Master. Of the exceptions by the defendants, that having reference to the 7441. net proceeds of 100 bales of cotton shipped for Liverpool, at Charleston, was reserved for further directions. Another exception was taken to the charge of half the ex penses incurred by Mr. Hodgson, and placed to Mr. Sharp's debit; Mr. Hodgson was employed by Robertson without the privity of Sharp, and sent out on instructions and matters in which Sharp had no interest; but while out Mr. Hodgson did act in matters where Sharp was concerned, and in consequence one-half of his whole expenses, which amounted to 4001., was charged to Sharp. This exception must be referred back to the Master, with liberty to Taylor to show, if he can., whether any of such moneys expended by Hodgson are to be allowed out of the sum due to Sharp. Reference was made again to the Master on the seventh and eighth exceptions, on account of imperfection and incon clusiveness in the Master's finding. RAWLINS V. MOSS. In this case it was argued, on the part of Mr. Moss, that the 9001. recovered on the estate of Harrison was a sum due on the general account. In this view his Honour could not decide in the absence of the other parties, and therefore sent it back to the Master to inquire who were the parties en titled to participate in this sum. His Honour allowed Mr. Moss his professional charges up to the time of his becoming truetee, but only such sums after that as he might be out of pocket. The suitors, in case they could not agree on what the sum were which have been so allowed, are at liberty to go before ti;e Master for this purpose. SIR CHARLES ;TICE V. THE CORPORATION OF PENZANCE. This case, the facts of which were mentioned in The Sun a few days ago, came on by petition to be heard on the sub ject of costs. His HONOUR said the plaintiff had received the benefit of the suit, inasmuch as the market had been built and the road made, and although there had been unusual delay on the part of the Corporation he did not see sufficient grounds for alLow ing costs to either. The cause has been ordered to come on for re-hearing on an objection taken by the defendants. COURT OF QUEEN'S EENCH, Nov. 19. (Sittings in Banco.) THE QUEEN V. JOHNSON. In this case Counsel moved that the summary conviction had in this case be brought up and quashed, on the ground of its being informal and against the statutes. Defendant was convicted before the magistrates, at Hull, in October, 1844, under the 39th Geo. 3, sec. 75, cap. 15, and fined 201., for taking 2d. at the door of a public-house, as admission money, to hear a lecture delivered by one Emma Martin, on " The Crimes and Follies of Christian Missions." The Act under which the conviction had taken place was an "Act for the Better Suppression of Seditious Assemblies," and it pro hibited the taking of fees under circumstances such as those charged against the defendant. The penalty is 20/., one half of which went to the Crown, and the other to the in former. Counsel contended that the conviction was bad and informal, inasmuch as the conviction set out that the infor mation was laid by an informer, but did not specify his name. Counsel having cited several Acts of Parliament in support of his argument, The COURT decided that the conviction was good, inas much as the information was in conformity with the form contained in the Act of Parliament, and, therefore, if there was any omission, it was the fault of the Legislature. THE QUEEN V. THE MAYOR AND ALDERMEN OF LONDON. Counsel stated that this was a demurrer to a return to a mandamus, calling upon the Mayor and Aldermen of London to admit or cause to be admitted William Henry Ashurst an attorney of the Lord Mayor's Court, to which he was entitled by the 6th and 7th Vic., cap. 73, sec. 27. The mandamus stated that the Court of the Lord Mayor of London was an inferior court of the City of London ; and the return, he (the Learned Counsel) said he conceived was rather an extraordi nary instrument. It appeared that Mr. Ashhurst was an attorney of the courts of Westminster, and was, therefore, en titled, as he (the Learned Counsel) would show, to be ad mitted an attorney of the Lord Mayor's Court, which was an inferior Court. Counsel then read the 27th section of the 6 and 7 Viet., cap. 73, which gave an attorney of the superior courts the right to practice in all inferior courts. The man damus commanded that Mr. Ashurst should be admitted an attorney of the Lord Mayor's Court, and as it was alleged that that was an inferior court, it was expected that that fact would be admitted in the return, but that had not been done. The return, on the contrary, set forth that the Lord Mayor's Court was a court of law and equity, and that it also had a penal jurisdiction attached to it, and that penalties awarded by it could be recovered in that Court only. Mr. Justice Wrmi.ors said that that was an argument to show that the applicant was not fit. COUNSEL said it might or might not be an argument in that way before the House of Commons or House of Lords. Lord DENMAN—You rest on the words of the 27th section?

BAIL COURT, Nov. 19. (Sittings in Banco, before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) JEFFERIES v. THE LORDS COMMISSIONERS OF HER MAJESTY'S TREASURY. Mr. JARVIS, Q.O , applied to the Court for a rule to show cause why the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Trea sury should not grant compensation to Mr. Jefferies for the loss of certain fees which had been abolished by Act of Par liament, and which he had received by virtue of his office as clerk to the Court of Common Pleas of her Majesty's Treasury. The Learned Gentleman stated that the office of clerk had been held in Mr. Jefferies' family for more than seventy years. The fees he received were divided into four classes. The first was a deduction which he was entitled to make from certain fees payable to the Lord Chief Justice, and which yielded about 601. per annum. The second and third were comprised in a fee of 6d., which he received for sealing records ; and the fourth was a fee of ls. for endorsing and making up records after the decision of the jury. By the 35th chapter of the Ist and 2d William IV., it was enacted that the offices of persons who held them at pleasure, or for a long term of years, should be regarded as matters of right, and that compensation should be made ac cordingly. The. Commissioners who were appointed by that I Act to report upon the fees and the right of persons weaving sth section of the Company's Act was, that they should execute their works as they should see fit, but with as little damage as possible to private-property ; and in the event of their causing . such damage, they should, if unable to settle it otherwise, issue a warrant to the sheriff of the county in which such damage occurred, to call a jury and assess the damages. By the 35th section of the Act, it is enacted that the Company shall not be obliged to receive any complaint concerning any private loss sustained, unless such complaint should be made by or on behalf of the corporation of the place where such damage is received, in a written form, thirty days before the sum moning of the jury, and within the space of two months after such damage shall have been received. His application was on behalf of Mr. Coles Child, who carried on business as a coal merchant at Belvidere Wharf. In 1842 the erection ofthe bridge commenced. In September of that year an excava tion was made for the pier of the bridge, which excavation ran under Mr. Child's premises, causing a settlement of the building and several cracks in the walls. On the 10th of g t: S hB e ia4c p t3k t : e ah n ofe t nti b ene e r i r wos , feahr a tidhe l sfe e i set walls nairii, went .tsefotenailtt:i on, pn,chd t te h ata e hnge f ai a npi c nrt t , was sent to the Secre tary of the Company. On the 16th an answer was received, stating that the application would be attended to. Mr. Chad- Mr. Coles that no further settlement would take place. Finding who declined any further interference. On the 12th of May, circum stance was sent to the Company, who eiwmm a r t ai o teti r nt e onont s fhd h te o hh r Cee t: mas l. p p sua t nr h e3 premises in a temporary manner, and then left them. In. February, 1844, the works ceased, and Mr. Childs had a sur vey made and a list of the damage sent to the Company, with a request that they would either repair them or send a suffi cient amount to do so. After this things remained in statu quo until the 12th of February, 1845, when Mr. Coles at tempted to recover damages by an action, but as such a pro ceeding was not compatible with the Act ofthe Company, he was compelled to abandon it. In May another portion of the walls fell ; and in June a formal claim was made on the Company for damages received. In August an answer was received declining to pay the damages, or to issue a warrant to assemble a jury to assess them, as the application was not made within the time re quired by the Act. Mr. Justice ParrEsox said he did not think payment would be withheld on such grounds. Arnie for a mandamus would, he thought, best meet the case. Rule granted accordingly. COURT OF REVIEW, No. 19. (Before Vice-Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.) HASTINGS V. DOBBS. The attention of the Court was occupied throughout the day with, questions of form ; the other cases on the paper above this case were ordered to stand over. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 19. (Sittings in Banco.) SUTCLIFF V. BROOK. This was an action of debt, brought by the plaintiff as assignee of an insolvent debtor, to recover from the defendant a particular sum of money, which was the result of a mutual arbitration. The declaration made the cause an action of debt upon the submission or agreement to abide by the award in question, and the defendant had demurred to this part of the declaration, on the ground that it was bad in law. Mr. ATHERTON now appeared to auport the demurrer. His first objection was to the form of action, for their Lordships would perceive that this was not an action upon till, award, but an action of debt, founded upon a mutual promise between the plaintiff and the defendant to abide by a prospective award ; and he submitted that the form of pleading was contrary to precedent, and contrary to principle. There were three forms of remedy for a plaintiff in a case like the present, and those forms were stated in Mr. Watson's book upon awards. The first was debt upon the award, debt on bond or contract for the due performance of the award, and covenant or assumpsit on deed of submis sion, and the existing precedents showed only these forms of action, and therefore he contended that the tdeclaration was contrary to president. Now with respect to its being contrary to principle. The principle he took to be this :—an action of debt or assumpsit would lie upon a parole or un sealed contract, provided such contract contained a promise to pays specific sum of money, and hence an action of debt would lie on the award if it required one of the parties to pay a particular sum of money. Now as the contract upon which this action of debt was brought contained no promise to pay a specific sum of money, he contended that the declaration was contrary to prin ciple. There was another objection to the declaration. It did not show that the plaintiff agreed to the reference with the consent of three-fourthe of the insolvent's creditors, in aCcordance with the provision. of 1 and 2 Victoria. Mr. COWLING supported the declaration. With regard to the last objection, the Act of Parliament had been held by the Court to be only directory, and therefore the omission. complained of died not invalidate the reference. With regard to the other objection, that the cause of action was erroneous, he apprehended that it was not. True it was an action upon the submission, but it 1,-as coupled with the award itself. His Learned Friend was wrong when he said there were no precedents upon this point, for if he bad looked into Chitty on Pleadings, page 24, he would have found the form of a declaration precisely similar to the one in the present case The COURT ultimately ruled that the demurrer w as good, and directed the declaration to be so amended that i t should be simply an action of debt upon the award only, leaving the submission out of the question altogether. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 19. (Sitting in Banco. ) Their Lordships this day took the demurrer paper, the ar guments upon which were wholly destitute of popular interest. (Nisi Prizes.) Mr. Justice Cresswell sat at nisi prius, with a Middlesex common j ury, in the Guildhall, Westminster, and was occu pied the whole morning with an action for illegal distress. SECONDARIES' COURT, Nov. 18. (Before Mr. Secondary Purr En.) AUSTIN AND ANOTHER V. PONT. This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, who are share brokers, Bank-chambers, to recover the sum of 151., money paid in error on a sale of some railway shares ; the defendant is a tradesman in the Borough. The defendant pleaded the general issue. The plaintiffs' clerk was called to prove that he made out the papers of the sale of fifteen East India shares. They were sent by the defendant for immediate sale. They were sent on the Ist of August to Messrs. Wilkinson at 1i premium, which was a mistake, as the price was only a quarter, and the money was returned to them. Defendant, on being applied to, said they might deduct the amount from the produce of the next shares he had to dispose of, which would be in a few days. He could not remember the price of the day, but knew what it was the day before and the day afterwards. Messrs. Wilkinson's clerk was called and proved the sale and return of the money to him. The defendant's solicitor contended that the action could bad no n o as rightthe not be maintained, as the buying and selling of shares in this manner was illegal. The SECONDARY—I don't think it turns now en thus pleadings, after an admission and promise to pay . pla T in h t e iff d h e a f d en a d e a t n u t e ' l s ly at r t e o e rn eiv ey ed tthhene money,conte to pay it back or allow the contract wit hout the consent of their principal ; besides there had not been an y evidence sate the price of the day. The SECONDARY said it wo uld have been better to h ave had clearer evidence on that p oint.—Verdict for plaintiff. theynd e d The defendant's attorney then moved that the wit should be stayed. The SECONDARY said that he could not do that, but he would take at ote of the objections mad e , an d dttfenda.nt, m ight apply a judge. A RAILWAY RACE.—A railway race is a suffioiently exciting and interesting event ; but it is rarely witness ed, and scarcely ever in perfect safety. Between a pair of well matched locomotives it wou ld b e su ffi c i en tly exciting; but between a new system, like the atmospheric, and its rival, the locomotive, the character and reputation of both sye tweemres lky f u o e rspeed depending upon the issue, a well-matched contest would be of no common interest. In this case we enough to see such a race; and we believe that any of our readers who leave London-bridge station a': twenty minutes past two, and take an atmospheric ticket, may do the same. We were standing at the Forest-hill station, preparing to start, when it was announced. that the Dover express train was in sight ! Immediately we (the atmospheric) made preparations to start, and were just in t o act of starting from rest when the locomotive train R , sled " past us at probably some thirty-five miles an hour. We started, but before we got into motion at any' velocity, Dover train was a mile a-head of us, and was ev idently gaini:2s rapidly in speed. However, on we went like a whirlwind, az.ld it awl became evident we were gaining on our rival. Three or four minutes decided the race. We passed tha express train at a ,rate exceeding her own by fif teen or twenty miles an hour. Our velocitv could not be less than sixty miles an hour. lly ma intained, and we were over the was igl 'te e r a viaductnd a steadily a c d o i n l y siderably beyond it before the Dover l'eached it.
