The eye of the police, which falls upon all things, of course fell upon James Gray and John Allen, who were apprehended in the act of inscribing the enigmatical phrase upon Black friar's. bridge by the light of the moon. In the presence of Mr. Alderman Wilson they ex plained that " a gent" had promised to pay them two pence a piece fur these inscriptions, that he had not paid them yet, and that they painted at night because the children smeared their work if they did it by day. Such was their trespass. Their punishment was novel and exemplary; they were ordered to clean the bridge, or go to prison. Of course they cleaned the bridge. We said the mystery was revealed, but not entirely, for the '• gent" who promises to pay, but does not pay, is still involved in congenial obscurity. Who can he be —that man of enlarged, we may say, gigantc revolu tionary ideas? Gunpowder Plot was a small concep tion compared to this. Guy Fawkes proposed to move, with a very forcible suasion, " that the House do rise;" but to awake a people to a constitutional insurrection, by persuading them that cheap bread and plenty of it amount to starvation, that required the original genius of a "gent." Again wo ask who is this mcdern Machia velli, in the shape, demeanour, and dress of a " gent?" Is it Colonel S l bth orp , or Mr. G. F. Young? or has the Association for the Protection of Native Industry con descended to Superintend in person these mighty evolu tions? Who can say? Let Sir George Grey and Mr. Mayne look alive, for are there not " six Richmonds in the field ?" The Leader. In I Dividend Xame of Comp any . • Amount per of Paid. P r i ce , r. I " ------ Annum.

(Before Lord CAMPBELL, Mr. Justice PATTESON, Mr. Justice COLERIDGE, Mr. Justice MAULS, Mr. Jus tice CRESSWELL, and Mr. Justice TALFOURD.) BOOSEY V. JEFFRIES. Lord CAMPBELL, in delivering the judgment of the Court, said that in this case the action bad been brought by the plaintiff against the defendant for the pirating and using a musical composition, being a cavatina in the opera of La Sonnarnbula, which was composed by Bellini. The declaration was in the common form, alleging that the plaintiff was the pro prietor of the copyright of the opera, and that the composition in question was first published in Great Britain. To this declaration there were two pleas— first, that the plaintiff was not the proprietor; and secondly, that there was no copyright. At the trial, - which took place before Mr. Baron Rolfe, now Lord Cranworth, evidence was given that the opera was composed at Milan in February, 1831, by Bellini, - who was an alien, and who then resided in that city. By the law of Milan, he was entitled to a copyright of his work ; and accordingly, in May, 1831, he assigned his copyright to Giulio Ricordi, an 1 4 alien, also residing at Milan, who, on the 9rh of June following, assigned the copyright for Great Britain and Ireland to the plaintiff, a native of Great • Britain, and he published it in London on the 10th of June, 1831, there having been no prior publication of it in any other country. On the 12th of June, the plaintiff entered his work at Stationers' Hall, and deposited copies at the British Museum and other places required by the Act of Parliament ; and on the 13th of May, 1844, he made entries at Stationers' ;% Hall, as required by the sth and 6th Victoria, c. 45, • for the purpose of cont i nuing his right. The Learned Judge, in accordance w i t h the decision of the Court - -of Exchequer, in the case of Boosey and Purday, i „ directed the jury to find a verdict for the defendant, on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to establish a copyright. The jury, therefore, returned a verdict for the d ef e n d ant, upon which a bill of excep tions was tendered to the ruling of the Learned Judge, 74 % and so the present writ of error was brought. After listening to a learned argument, and carefully oonsi , dering all the authorities, we are of opinion that the evidence was sufficient to support both issues, and that there ought to be a venire de novo. The first question was, whether the author had a copy le right, but that is not essential in the present case. If '4 it were, we should be of the same opinion as my Lord Mansfield in the case of "Miller and Taylor," 4 Bur ' roughs 2,330. W e thi n k t h at, under the statute of ,% the Bth , of Anne, o. 19, the plaintiff was entitled to maintain the action. In Boosey and Purday, in ' u which the Court of Exchequer overruled the decision ';''` of the Court of Queen's Bench and Common Pleas, ' which are authorities directly in point, it was decided ly that a foreign author residing abroad, who composes a work abroad, and sends it to this country, where it % is published under his authority, acquires no copy right therein, neither does a British subject, to whom Od that work is assigned by the foreign author, gain any such right. If these premises be sound, then a Bri tish subject who resides abroad cannot be in a better position ; but with great deference to that decision, which must have been strongly maintained, we are of opinion that it was not the intention of , the Legislature to debar a foreigner from the power of holding a copyright in this country. The Parliament has no power to legislate concerning Price. foreigners residing in foreign countries, but it has power to grant the monopoly which the statute of Anne confers, to be enjoyed here, on the conditions ; 1 4 to be performed here. The statute of the Bth of Anne, c. 19, is an Act for the encouragement of learn ing, by vesting the copies of printed books in the % authors or purchasers of such copies during the times therein mentioned. Assuming that the Legislature looked only to the benefit of Great Britain, without ___ regard to general literature, it is not for the literature of Great Britain that it should have the benefit of ice. foreign authorship? If Rapin and De Lolme had written their valuable works without visiting our shores, could it be said that they would have bean deprived of the privilege of disposing of their works • to a publisher ? It has always been the policy of ' 3 i Parliament to introduce foreign literature into the country; thus by the Ist Richard 111., c. 9, which was an Act passed for regulating the mode in which Italian merchants might sell merchandise and other restraints on aliens, it is enacted by sec. 12, that aliens may bring any books written or printed into this country, for selling by retail or otherwise. The question truly is, whether a foreigner ' composing literature abroad, by sending it and first publishing it in Great Britain, is deprived of his copyright, whereas, if he resides and composes it here, it is admitted that he would be possessed of it. If he had composed it abroad and brought it over in his memory, or even brought over the manuscript, would it have made any difference in his right as an author ? Can his presence here alter his right as an author ? If he can bring it over and enter it at • Stationers' -hall himself, which is admitted, why should he not able to do so by an agent? Where is the necessity of his crossing from Calais to Dover? The law will give him redress, though he never set foot in England ; for, by the 6th of Henry VIII., the Court of Common Pleas held that an alien residing in France could maintain an action of debt in this country, though he could not do so with regard to real property ; and that great judge, Chief Justice Tindal, held that an alien, though he has never been in this country, may maintain an action for a libel published in this country ; and, on delivering judgment said that it would create in the minds of foreigners a very unfavourable impres s i on o f the a justice of our laws if we were to h o ld t h at an lien's friend s could not maintain an action of that description in our courts, unless by some interval of residence here he has incurred the onus of what Lord Coke calls igeantia localis • and Mr. Justic e M su l e, - in the sam e case, said that ' every day's experience ce. showed us that actions are maintained here by fo • reigners—for example, those for running down vessels on the high Sew—without objection. Gibbons wrote his celebrated work of the " Decline and Fall" in a : 34 foreign country; can it be doubted that he might have published and sold his work here had he con tinued to reside abroad? What difference can there be then between a foreigner or a subject domiciled • abroad ? For these reasons we think that if an alien author, residing in his own country, should cause his work to be published here, he would be an 3:2 author within the Acts, and could maintain an action for piracy ; but we wish it to be understood s that it must be first published in this country, for if it bad been published previously in any other eountry he could not gain a copyright here. The origin of the doctrine set up by the de lea. fondant seems to have arisen from a dictum of the late V ice - Chancellor Shadwell, against the right of a foreigner, expressed in the cases of Guichard a. Mori, and in Page and Townsend, which turned on the • construction of several Acts protecting engravings, one only of which was expressly confined to plates engraved in Great Britain; but these opinions were re. merely obiter dicta, and the cases had no connexion ' with copyrights. Looking at the context, there is reason to believe that the Vice-Chancellor only meant to say that the Court would not protect a foreigner who publishes abroad. As to the other points, viz., that the assignment by Bellini to Ricordi was not ac cording to the Act of Parliament, viz., in the presence of two witnesses, we think that there is sufficient to show a good title in Ricordi, which he assigned to the plaintiff in England in the presence of two witnesses. Upon the whole, therefore, we are of opinion that the direction of the Learned Judge was wrong, and that he ought to have directed the jury to find a verdict for the plaintiff on both issues. They must, there fore, be a venire de novo. ADMIRALTY COURT, May 21. (Before Dr. LIISHINGTON.) THIS DIIRE—S4IALTAGE. In this case the crews of two fishing-smacks of Harwich proceeded against the Bure for services ren dered her on the 9th of November last, off Harwich, she having run aground on the Pye sand. The sal vors asserted she was in a dangerous position, and were employed in heaving the vessel clear off the sand. On behalf of the Bure it was asserted she merely dropped alongside of the sand ; the assistance of the boatmen was not solicited or required, but that they forced their services upon the vessel, and that some coals had been given for the services they had ren dered. Dr. Harding appeared for the boatmen, and Drs. Addams and Twiss on behalf of the Bure. The COURT considered a trifling service bad been rendered, and awarded the salvors 51. and coats. sion, he being the holder of the warrants ; hence the present issue. It appeared that the ten casks of nut megs were lying at Brewer's Quay-wharf, and that if delivered for home consumption about 2091. would have to be paid as duty, but if they were exported of course no duty would be payable. Mr. LOCKE submitted that the plaintiff's case could not be sustained, as the attachment was against ten casks of nutmegs which had never been in his posses sion, he being merely the holder of the warrants. The latter, and not the goods, should have been attached. The RECORDER held that the nutmegs were in Mr. Scott's possession really, though not actually, in the same manner that a person who had money at a banker's was in possession of that money. Mr. LOCKE then addressed the jury, and urged that unless they were thoroughly satisfied, from the evi dence that the nutmegs were actually in Mr. Scott's possession, they could not find for the plaintiff. The Learned Counsel then put in as evidence a deed of assignment, executed by Cleland and Day, at Boston, on the failure in December, to show that when the attachment was issued in February, the nutmegs had been formally assigned to Mr. Scott and other creditors, for the benefit of the creditors generally. The names of Mr. Posuo, Turkish Consul at Ant werp, and Mr. Da Pests, Turkish Consul General at Brussels, appeared as parties to the deed. It ap peared, however, that the deed had not been executed until after the issue of the attachment. The jury, without hesitation, found that the gar nishee had in his possession ten casks of nutmegs be longing to the defendants—which was a verdict for the plaintiff. 1 INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, May 21. (Before the CHIEF COMMISSIONER.) IN RE RICHARD JOHN MOSCROP. This insolvent, who was a corn-dealer at Holloway, was opposed by Mr. Sargood for Messrs. Charring ton. He had no counsel. An objection was taken to the petition in this case, which was filed under the Protection Act, on the ground that the debts exceeded 300/. It appeared that the insolvent had given a Mr. Bilton a bill of sale for 1101., which, with his present debts, would make them exceed 3001. It was, how ever, alleged that Mr. Bilton had taken possession of the property secured by the deed, and had realised the same, which was in effect an extinguishment of the claim. The deed was exhibited in court, and ap peared to be a mortgage. Mr. SARGOOD submitted that the deed to Mr. Bil ton had not been extinguished, and that it must be calculated in the amount. Therefore the debts ex ceeded 3001. and the petition must be dismissed. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER concurred in the view taken by the Learned Counsel, and dismissed the petition. The petition was accordingly dismissed. His Horious granted several final orders, and heard other applications, neither of which presented any feature of public importance. LORD MAYOR'S COURT, May 21. (Before the RECORDER.) 1 HULSCHOFF V. CLELAND AND. DAY DEFENDANTS, SCOTT GARNISHEE. This was a customary attachment in an action for debt for 7001. The garnishee pleaded that be had neither moneys nor goods of the defendants in his possession. Mr. Ryland and Mr. Randall appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Locke appeared for the garnishee. The plaintiff was a merchant at Amsterdam, the defendants were merchants at Boston, United States, and the garnishee was Mr. James Scott, merchant. of Nicholas-lane. In April or May last year, Mr. F. , Saville Lee, who was the authorised London agent of the firm of Cleland and Co., of Boston, purchased on their behalf eleven casks of nutmegs, of the value of 7001., of Mr. Adrian Meyer, the representative in London of the plaintiff's house, but one of the war rants was returned to Mr. Meyer, be having sold one of the casks, and the ten others were given by Mr. Lee to Mr. Scott, the present garnishee, who it ap peared was a creditor of Cleland and Day's to some amount. In December the house of Cleland and Day failed, whereupon the plaintiff availed himself of the process of the Lord Mayor's Court to recover fro Mr. Scott th e nutmegs which wer e still in his posse s s - I list ? Witness—Three or four minutes, your Wor ship. Gosford, 107 L, who deposed that the prisoner Lynn had hem left in his care; after 'he had been taken into the cell, and while sitting with him, le asked him if he had been at the raffle at the Mite Lion public houte, on the night before, end he replied that he had. He next inquired if he had left the White Lion with the other prisoners, who were there, and he said fe did, hut added, that he had gone before them with a young woman, down Vauxhall-walk, and parted with her in Lambeth-walk, and that on his return be saw the policeman lying dead. Mr. Neill here complained of the conduct of the sergeant in putting these questions to the prisoner, without giving him the slightest caution, or any inti mation that the answers he should give would be used against him elsewhere. Thomas Jones, a shoemaker, was here sworn, and stated that on Monday morning, the sth instant, he was locked up in one of the cells connected with the court, on a charge of making away with a pair of boot-uppers belonging to his employer, when the pri soner Harrington was brought in and locked up with him. Soon after he heard him say that if he had tl.e clinker i n hi s h an d he would split the police_ man's head into pieces. In reply to the questions of the Magistrate, th e witness said, that it was about nine o'clock in the morning that those assertions were made by the pri soner, who was lying on one of the seats at the timer but not asleep. In reply to a question as to how often he bad been in prison, he declared that he bad never been lock ed up before the morning in question. Mr. Games applied f,r the discharge of Febef: William Burke, Sh ana h an , an d Sl attery , a gain" whom, he contended, there was not a tittle of el.. dence. Mr. BROUGHTON—Do you really believe there were as many passengers as you have stated ? Wit ness—l do, Sir; but of course I had no opportunity of counting them at the time. Defendant, when asked by the magistrate what he had to say, replied that the passengers numbered no more than twenty-two, which was just one more than the vehicle was licensed to carry ; the near horse was a " jib," and he did not whip him more than two or three times ; he had no witnesses to call. Mr. BROUGHTON remarked, that the case had been very properly taken up by a useful society, and fined the defendant 203. and costs, or in default of payment 14 days' imprisonment. If it had been shown that he had been brought up upon any former occasion fur conduct of a similar nature, be would now have been more severely dealt with. WORSHIP-STREF:T. Yesterday James Hurley and George Cator were placed at the bar for re-examination before Mr. Seeker, charged with a daring assault and robbery upon the person of Mr. Benjimin Collins, a blind man, carrying on business as an ironmonger in High street, Shoreditch. The circumstances which led to the detection and apprehension of the prisoners were of a somewhat singular character. It appeared that on the afternoon of Monday, the 9th instant, as the prosecutor was passing through New lon-yard, Shoreditch, under the guidance of his daughter, a child eight years old, he suddenly received a severe kick on the back of the leg, which flung him forward upon his face, but he eves immediately raised up by two men, one of whom, while affecting to commiserate his misfortunes, sud denly thrust his hand into his waistcoat pocket, from which he abstracted his watch with a violent jerk that detached it from the guard, and both of them in stantly made off with their booty. He gave imme diate information to the police, and having been sub sequently apprised that a man was in custody charged with a murderous assault upon a married woman, who bad denounced him as one of the gang who had robbed him of his watch, he proceeded to the station house, where he was confronted with the prisoner Hurley, and at once recognised him, by the pecu liarity of his voice, as one of his assailants. Ellen Wateman, the wife of a bedstead-maker, in Christopher-square, Shoreditch, in whose house Hur ley had foemerly lodged, was then examined, and de posed that she accidentally witnessed the robbery while proceeding through New Inn-yard, on the afternoon in question, and having described the par ticulars in the same terms as they had been detailed by the prosecutor, and thoroughly identified the pri soners as the perpetrators, proceeded to state that she met Hurley again, near her own residence, on the same evening, and after an exulting observation upon the daring character of the transaction, he informed her that he had since sold the watch for 16s. to a Jew receiver. Witness remarked that it was a cruel act to commit such a robbery upon a poor blind man, and told him that she had a good mind to communicate POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
