This was an acti , in fur fake and malicious imprisoninent. It appeared the plaintiff had been arrested on the 221 of December at the suit of the defendant for the sum of £9B, and kept in prison until the sth v ef March following, not being able to procure bail, and was then released, the defendant Living abandoned all further proceedings against him. It was n alted, ou the part of th e phintitf, that nothing was due from h itito the defendant, and that the latter was actuated by malice on account of some former disputes in business, and had been }heard to say that he would throw him in prison and keep Min there. A long statement of accounts and transactions between the parties was entered into. For the defendant it was alleged that the plaintiff was really indebted to the defendant in the sum of £77, though not to the amount for which he had been ar rested; and this was mentioned as one of the reasons which had iudiiced him to abandon the action. The learned JUDGE gummed up the evidence, and the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages £lOO. SCALPE 0. ARNAUD. The plaintiff in this actiouviiisliir7Peter Scaife, a merchant ai Liverpool, and the defendant Mr. E. Arnaud, collector of .eietitoms at this port.

They were en dorsed by the plaintiff. Oa the 23d they were sent to Mr. M`Murray, at Cork, for acceptance in the usual way, and were returnable on the 27th. On the evening of the 23d the banking hones of Messrs. Fletcher, Roscoe, and Co. stopped payment, and after that date they ceased to transact business as bankers. It was the practice of the Custom-house at this port to keep tanking acconints with several establishments in Liverpool, for which responsible security was required and given, and among others it appeared that M essrs . Fl etc h er. R oscoe, an d C o . had a portion of the government account. At the moment of their failure there was a large sum owing to the government. To meet the government balance a heavy sum of money had' been handed over by the bankers to Mr. Arnaud, who had transmit ted it to London; and the latter still held in his possession vari cies bills, &e. which he had obtained front the bankrupt firm. Atthia time the firm of Messrs. itowlandson and Roscoe stood indebted to Messrs. Fletcher, Roscoe, and Co. in the sum of 1 : 20 ,000 or EAU, ance knowing that their stability depended upon that of: their bankers, they were naturally anxious to do every thing iu their power . Is sustain the credit of the' house. They were accesdiugly anxious to satisfy the demand of the collector, whose claim by this time was reduced to about £1,700. They raised 'about £1,200 for this purpose, which, with £6OO added by .Messrs. Fletcher, Roscoe, and Co„ covered the go e vernmeut demand; and certain bills held by the collector were handed over to Mr. Thomas Peasou, amongst others, those paid by the plaintiff. The former, who had no connexion- with the backing -house of Messrs. Fletcher, Roscoe, and Co. further than having a brother iu the firm which stoou so much indebted to them, obtained possession of the bills, and immediately got them discouuted by Messrs. Parr, Lyons, and Co., bankers, of Warrington, through the medium of Joseph Donald, of Run corn: The bills had been endorsed by the plaintiff when paid in ' and put to the credit o f hi s cas h account. John Gage was book-keeper and collecting clerk to Messrs Fletcher, Roscoe, and Co.. at the tune of their stoppage. They stopped payment on the evening of the 23d July. Plaintiff kept a cash apeount with the' firm. They kept a general ledger for miecebaueoes accounts, and separate ledgers for large accounts. The plaintiff's account was kept in a separate ledger. The pass-book here produced belonged to the defendant. •It was a voucher for the cash Which he paid into the bank. The cash received across the counter was recorded in the daily receipt b4olF,,which was a recur(' of alt cash paid into thesbanle. The sums received were posted from this book into the ledgers. The bills now produced were copied by him into the bill-hook on the day of their payment, and were by him handed over to one of the partners. Cannot say that any bills were paid over to Messrs. Gordon, Roberts, and Gordon. Cross-examined.--Tbe bills, when received, were entered at the counter; they were then entered in the ledger, and, after being entered in the bill-book, were finally handed over to one of the partners. Parties who made deposits might draw money on the credieof their bills. The bills were entered to the credit of the plaintiff.

On the evening of the 23d July there was an account due from them to the crown, kept in the, name of Arnaud. The balance owing was £15,000. The bank gave him a draft on their London bankers, Messrs. Jones, Lloyd, and Co. for the amount, which was dishonoured. Mr. Arnaud came to the bank On the subject. on Saturday, July 27. When Arnaud came he made a selection of bills, retaining some ' and rejecting others. Mr. Rouen transacted business with him. The Officers, on the day fiillowing,carhe with an extent, and took possession, not only of the banking house, but also the private houses of all the partners.

The assig nees could not, under like circumstances, have detained the bills; and to make the matter worse, Arnaud, instead of hand ing them over to Fletcher, and from whom no person would have taken-them, be being a broken -banker, had given them to a third person, who was thereby enabled to get them discount ed. The learned JUDGE was of opinion that the plaintiff had not made out a case, as there was no evidence to prove that the hilts had ever been in the possession of Arnand. The plaintiff was accordingly nonsuited, SATURDAY. (Before Sir N. C. Timm L.) The whole of the criminal business having concluded last night, Sir N. C. Tindal, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, attended the court.tolay fur the purpose of trying civil causes.

'thiswas an action brought by the plaintiff, who is an inn keeper of Manchester, to *Cover the sus of Ws. 6d. for refreshments, &c., .furnished to the' detendant, his customers, and others. Mr. Joitet A noisoN, jun., appeared for the plain tiff. The. defendants, Messrs. Richard and Robert Travis, he stated, were bleachers; and it appears that it is usual for per Fang in their business to meet on certain days and entertain their country customers at some inn or tavern. It was thu s that the amount claimed had acrued. The learned °counsel said that it would be unnecessary for him to call witnesses to prove his case, as lie was prepared to show, by written docu ments in the handwriting of the defendant, that they admitted the claim, and had offered to pay it in instalments of £lO per month. Mr. Law, attorney for the plantiff, furnished the re quired p roo f s, and thejury found a verdict for the plaintiff. WA LLAVORTH• V..

PIIIIItAItD V. MILLS AND oruaas. This was an action brought to recover the amount of an attorney's bill of costs. Mr. STARK IE stated the ease for the plaintiff, from w hick it appeared that he had, on a verbal re tainer given by the six defendants, three of whom had since died, commenced proceeding s for the recovery of some property which they believed they were entitled to. 'For the recovery of the costs in these actions the present action was brought. Scone ineffectual attempts had been made to bring the case to a concluion. The case had been before the court some time since, and was referred to arbitration ; but, owing to some in formality in obtaining the rule of court for the award, that pro ceeding-harl fallen to the grr.und. The plaintiff had delivered nine separate bills of costs, amounting to £73 4s. 7d.; these, on taxation, the Prothonotary had reduced to £l7 17s. Thomas Greenwood, a clerk with the plaintiff, proved the de livery of the bill of costs. and gave evidenee with a view to show . that all the defendants had given orders for the proceed. ings. There were nine bills of costs, the first of which was on an action of replevin, in 1826, for which a retainer was given • previously by all the six defendants. The retainer was verbal, not written. qc . •' , Pr•flt ATCHERLItY said that Mr. Ferranti had'heen enforc-' ;nce 1829. He did not wish 'to speak harshly of • •he nine bills of rusts before him, tle.three arrests n place, the eon tinued•preiling of the matter for f nine were ; at least, matters•for the seriob t i t ot _ le jury.

At this time of day, it was going too far. Although the Prothonotary had struck a la?ge overcharge front the bill, yet he had still arrested them. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant. WELCH AND A.NOTHEI: V. POWELL. This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, Messrs. Welch and Sells, to recover £3O I h. from the defendant., Mr. ALEXANDER and Dr. 13nowN appeared for the former; and Sergeant ATCRERLEY and Mr. SPARKLE, K. C., for the defence. Mr. ALEXAN nee. stated the case, to the effect, that the plain tiffs, Messrs. Welch and Sells, pu'rchased some cotton from the defendant, Mr. Powell, which amounted to £3O 145., fur which ho paid in ready cash. About a fortnight afterwards, when the cotton was nearly all worked up, a search was made for it by the police officers, as it turned out to have been stolen from the warehouse of Messrs. Bower and Son, Liverpool, by a man named Williams, who keeps a marine store at the last named place. By this Williams, the cotton had been sold to the de fendant, and he and the defendant had been since tried at the sessions--the former for having stolen, the latter for having re ceived it, knowing it to have been stolen. At this trial, Williams was convicted and Powell acquitted. What remained of the cotton was found in possession of the plaintiffs ; therefore, Messrs. Bower and Son, the original owners of the cotton, claimed restitution of it at their hands, but, as they could not return what had been used, they paid to Messrs. Bower and Son the suns of £30145., its value, and then applied to Mr. Powell for tilt payment, wich he refused, and inconsequence the pre sent action was brought to enforce recovery thereof. James Welch, the son of the plaintiff, proved the purchase of the cott on by his father from the defendant, and the search for it by the officers about a fortnight afterwards, at which time there were not above two or three pounds of it left unworked. James Maghill, clerk to Messrs. Bower and Son, proved the theft of the cotton, the trial of Williams for the offence, and the statement of the defendant to Mr. Thomas, the deputy con , stable of Manchester, that lie did not reurenther to have pur chased atly such cotton, and, subsequently, that he sold it to Mess's. Welch and Sells. Samuel Macniel, warehouseman to Messrs. Bower and Son, was called to corroborate the evidence of the theft. John Wybergh, clerk to a solicitor of Liverpool, produced a copy of the record of the conviction of Williams. Mr. Edward Bent, the plaintiff's attorney, proved that he had paid £3O 14s. on account of plaintiff, on the 3d of July last, to Mr. Kershaw, Messrs. Bower and Son's attorney. Previous to this he had called on the defendant, who said that he had already suffered enough, and that he did not think himself liable. He admitted having received the money from ilesSri. Welch and Sells, in payinent for the cotton. Mr. Slrgeant ATCHERLZY said, that the questien for the con sideration.of the jury was, whether they were satisfied that Mr. Powell had received the goods from Williams, knowing that he had no property in them. . Dr. BROWN replied, and endeavoured to put the case in point of view, that the defendant had no property in the cotton at . the time when he sold it to the plaintiffs. The j u ry' returned a verdict for the plaintiff. The leatued Judge quitted the court shortly after .three 'o'clock, and set off, in the evening, for Loudon. (Before Lord ABINGER, Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer.) The court was occupied from nine o'clock till nearly twelve, with the trial of a cause, (Button v. Buckton and another, assignees,) involving a long and tedious investigation into the affairs of a bankrupt, named Mason, lately carrying on business in Yorkshire, as a farmer. It possessed not a single particle of interest to any but the parties, and terminated in a verdict for the plaintiff. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-ENIPB V. HARGBEAIiES. This was an action to recover aa;;ge:i;bieachof promise of Marriage. It was expected to be one of rather a curious and interesting description, inasmuch as it was understood to com bine both matters of love and matters of money,-the defendant having pleaded,. in addition to the general issue, a set-off against the contingent damages, in the shape of money ad vanced by him to the plaintiff. Before, however, the case had been described or the parties' so much as named, Mr. Calssw FAA., for the plaintiff, rose and said that as the advance of money was pleaded, and as a number of letters, written only for perusal, and not intended to meet the public eye, would have to be produced, he thought it would be better for both parties to refer the accounts and all matters and differ ences between them to arbitration. Mr A LEXA NDRN , for the defendant, said it certainly would be a very painful thing to have to enter into a series of accounts joined with an action for breach of promise of marriage; and he quite agreed with his learned friend that a reference was the best and most proper course that could be adopted. His LORDSHIP said that this arrangement showed a very good and proper feeling in the parties. It was then agreed that the matter should be referred, a result which seemed to occasion considerable disappointment in a crowded court, especially among the ladies, some of whom, in our immediate neighbourhood, asked, with a very disconsolate air, " Is it all over ?" POLICY OF INSURANCE.--GREENWELL AND ANOTHER C. NICHOL- SON AND OTHERS. The plaintiffs in this case were agents for Messrs. Halloran and Co., fruit merchants, of Belfast, who have also anestablish ment at the Island of St. Michael's, the defendants, directors of the Sunderland.Joint Stock Marine Insurance Society, and the action was brought to recover the sum of £2OO, being the anrount of a policy of insurance effected with them on the schooner Water Witch, which sailed, from St. Michael's for Dublin, with a cargo of oranges on the 31st of December, 1833, and Was lost on the passage. Ihe owners bad had notice of the arrival of the Water Witch from Terceira, at St. Michael's, On: the 28th of December, and of her probable departure for Dub lin in a day or two with a full freight, and on the'2lstofJanuary.. a letter was received in Belfast, announcing that she had ac tually sailed. The letter was forwarded to Mr. Halloran, who had gone to Liverpool, and thence to Sunderland, a few days afterwards, but, in the meantime, he had effected an insurance an the freight with the Sunderland company for the sum men tioned. It was dated the Ist of February, 1834, and was accom panied with a warranty, stating that the vessel had arrived at St Michael's, and that nothing had since been heard of her. Wbe'n payment was demanded, it was resisted on the ground that the vessel, having sailed on the 31st of December, of which the in surer, it was alleged, had notice, and not having arrived on the Ist of February, the usual passage between St. Michael's and Dublin being from fifteen to twe n ty d a y s , s h e oug ht to have been insured at more than the common risk of 20s.—at which rate Mr. Halloran obtained the policy, in consequence of his representation that nothing had been heard of the vessel subse quent to her arrival at St. Michael's. The whole question turned upon the point whether the insurer had received the letter announcing the departure of the Water Witch from St. Michael's, for Dublin, prior to effecting the policy, and as it did nut appear th a t h e had, the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs.—Damages £2OO. Messrs. CaasswELL and WATSON were counsel for the plaintiff; Messrs. ALEXANDER and WIGHTMAN for the de fendants. ISLANDER.-WOOD V. TAYLOR. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for certain slanderous words spoken of the plaintiff, by the defend ant, and calculated to injure him in his character and business. Mr. AsExaN CFR, with whom was Mr. WIGHTMAN t stated the case to the jury. —The plaintiff, Mr. Edward Wood, in the Month of November, 1832, entered into partnership with agen t/amen named Warren, for the purpose of carrying on business as brewers, at the Richmond Brewery, in this town. The brewery had been previously occupied by a gentleman named Anderton, deceased, from whose executors they purchased the goodwill, lease, fixtures, &e. for £l5OO. The capital embarked in the undertaking was £2OOO. They .carried on a profitable business for some time, but in October last Mr. Warren, being anxious to retire, the defendant, Mr. James Taylor, a _person of considerable property, applied to the plaintiff to take Warren's share in the concern. Accordingly, on the lit of October last ) . an arrangerneut was made, by which a transfer of the share of Warren was made to the plaintiff, who entered into an arrange silent with the defendant. The share of Warren was estimated at £3100; that was transferred to the defendant, and the b rewery was carrie on undeor increase the new he trnershi capital p. to S£3ooo.hortly afterw Theaderds it was determined t fendant agreed to advance two-thirds of the sum necessary for that purpose, taking, of course, a corresponding share in the property. Soon afterwards, however, the defendant appeared to be anxious to get rid of the plaintiff altogether; and, finding the Richmond Brewery likely to be an extremely lucrative con cern, to put a relative of his own in his place. With a view - to that purpose, he commenced a series of calumnies against the plaintiff, calculated to induce his creditors to press far payment . , in a manner which, considering the credit of the concern, they Would never otherwise have thought of doing. He told various parties that the plaintiff was drawing hundreds out of the banks which did not belong to him ; that he was in the habit of gam-• toting at the Hotel, and losing .C6O or £BO a night ;: that he was perpetually calling °little customers, and not ac counting for one farthing of what he got ; in short, that he was making up a purse, as it is termed, for the purpose of setting off to America. The result was, that the plaintiff's creditors came upon him, and he was made a bank sup:. The brewery was then advertised for sale. It was described as being, and no " doubt it was, a flourishing concern; but when the time of sale came the defendant attended, wita his attorney, and gave notice that, if the brewery were sold, he should contest the right of the purchaser. The consequence was, an immediate cessation of all bidding, and the del'enant bought the brewery for £25 more than the price originally paid by the plaintiff and his partner,, Warren for the - transfer of the lease to them. The defeudant . then called 'in his relation, began to carry on the brewery afresh, and was now making an ample.fortune ou that very spot where the plaintiff might now, but for his interference, have beensloingS the same things should call before them theparsons.befere whim the slanderous words had been uttered, and the jury, as men of busin ess , 'w ou ld h e e n abl e d t o jud ge what effect they were likely to produce on the character and prospects . of a tradesman—Whether the creditors 'of the plaintiff, having such slanders driven into them by the defendant, were not likely to' do that which they would never Otherwise have thought of doing. The only question was the amount of damages the plaintiff had sustained; and he was sure they then would do 'him justice. The learned, gentleman then called the following witnesses : Wm. Nicholls, examined by Mr. Win tirmaN.—Was 'a pub lican, in Toxteth-park. Knew the plaintiff anddefendant. In November last had a conversation with the defendant about the Plaintiff. Defendant had said that Wood had acted in a d—d roguish manner • that he had n ver d rawn hi s b an k e r' s accou nt from £7OO t o LA ;, and that not one farthing of that sum be longed to bim. Thomas Phillips, examined by Mr. AT.F.XANDER.—Keit a public-hou se in Whitechapel. Knew Mr. Wood and Mr. Tay lor. They were in partnership together, at the Richmond Brewery. Had dealt with them, and was In the habit of keep ing a cheque-book, in which he entered the commodities he, got from them, and also th e money b e paid. On the llth of Octo ber last, saw the plaintiff, Mr. Wood and paid him £2O for ale. Saw hi m again on th e B t h of NoVeinber, and'paid him £4O. There was a discount of£l allowed on the first payment, and £2 on the second. Those payments were entered in his book in the usual course. Saw the defendant, Taylor, afterwards, and had some conversation with him respecting his dealings with•the brewery. Taylor told him not to pay any money to the plaintiff, as, if he did, lie might have to pay it over again. Tay lor told him that there was going to be a 'meeting of .plaintiff's creditors, and advised him to'httead it. Taylor did not tell him why he would have to pay the Money over again. He said that plaintiff had not paid over the money received from him (wit ness,) nor given any account of it whano, er. Cross-examined by Mr. CUES s 'ELL.--Attended the a: (TEN:. It was a meeting of Mr. Wood's creditors. John Booth, examinedby Mr. WIG iirtaka.--=Ketitthe Grapes public-house, in Toxieth;park. Had had 'dealings with the plainfiff and defendant. In November last defendant called upon him, and asked to look tit his book. He 'told him not to pay any more money tollr. Wood; that they were going to 'dissolve partnership; and that Mr. Wood had overdrawn to' the amount of £7OO or £BOO, and could give no account of it. , Hannah Bonnet, examined by Mr. AssxsNnsit.—Was wife 'to Mr. Bennett, who kept the Shades, in 'rarleton-street. Her huOttand had dealings with the Richmond Brewery. At the close of Noveniber laSt, defendant called at their house, and told herthat She was not to pay any more money to Mr. 'Wood, for he was a rogue. On ode' occasion he had palled forth apa per and said it was allat of VAlikruptcy against Mr. Wood. Tlaanas'Bennet,'huSband of the last Witness, stated, that Mr. ' Taylor had shnv.ai him a paper, and 'said thli it was a fiat of" bankruptcy against Mr. Wood. ' He (witne s s) want e d t o k now why they (plaintiff and defendant) could not agree, as they had This was an action by Mr. Robinson, a ship provision dealer in this place, against the defendant, to recover the sum of £10f) 10s., due for provisions furnished to the ship Edinburgh, bound at the time to New South Wales. On the 7th July, prior to her sailing, Mr. Robinson was waited upon by the agent for the defendant, Mr. Kingcade, by Mr. Ewin, and by the master of the ship. Twelve tierces of beef and twenty barrels of pork were selected, amounting to the sum in dispute, and the terms were that they should be paid for immediately, with fuur months discount. On the same day the goods were delivered, and an invoice was sent in to Mr. - Ewin, for the agents of Smith. In the course of two or three days, there being no mention of pay ment, Robinson sent to Edwin, and his answer was, that Mr. Smith bad not returned to Liverpool, but that as soon as he arrived the account should be paid. A week or ten days further elapsed, when Robinson went to Mr. Smith's, and had some conversation with him. Mr. Smith at once admitted the pur chase; but said he thought it very hard that he should pay, he having had some former transactions with Ewin, who owed him money. He thought he ought to set off the amount of the pro visions against the sum Ewin owed him. Mr. Robinson was not disposed to accede to any such arrangement; but no settle ment had yet been come to, the defendant persisting in his pro position. A clerk of Mr. Robinson having stated the nature of Mr. Smith's reply to the demand for payment, Mr. Ewin was put into the box, and deposed to having gone with the captain of the Edinburgh, (whom he introduced as such to Mr. Robin son,) and Mr. Kincade, to purchase the provisions. By the Junoe.—Did you interfere in the purchase ? Witness.—l was present. By the JUDGE.—CIMet you come to the point at once, sir? Did you buy them on your credit or that of Mr. Smith? Witness.—l can't tell, my lord. Examination continued—Mr. Smith had placed a qeantity of wine in my hands out at the proceeds of which these provi sions were to be paid for. This was in May. The wine was unsold when the provisions were purchased. The wines were sold to me, payment to be taken in the articles in which I dealt. (The agreement was put in and read. It provided that the amount of the wines should be paid for "in ship's-chandlery and other things.") B . y the JUDGE..—Were the provisions to be furnished in part? Witness.—They were. By the JUDGE.—Had you any authority to order goods for the ship on the credit of Mr. Smith ? Witness.—No, my lord, I had sot. Mr. CRESSWELL - having addressed the jury for the defence, Mr. Kingcade and the captain wore called to prove that Ewin was the principal in the transaction, and that the captain and Smith's agent merely went in common course to inspect the provisions, which it was usual for the captain to do, before they were finally purchased. Mr. Kingcade proved also that a de, wand had been made upon Mr. Smith for sails furnished in a similar way thrOugh the medium of Ewin, who became bank rupt in August subsequent to this transaction. The jury found for the defendant. MOORS V. A NDERTON. Mr. ALEXANDER, with whom was Mr. COTTINGNAM, stated that Mr. Moons was a corn merchant, in Sutton, and the de. fendaut a foreman in his employ. The action was brought to obtain a balance of accounts fot various transactions from 1833 to the - end of 1834. The sum claimed is £lO9. It being a mat ter of lenkthened and intricate account, the court suggested, and the counsel on both sides concurred in the propriety of te tarring it to an arbitrator, subject to whose awarda verdict was taken for the plaintiff. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD a good connexion. Defendant said it was impossible they could agree, inasmuch as his partner, Mr. Wood, was in the habit of going to the ,and spending ..£4O or £3O per night in gam bling transactions. After the examination of this witness, Mr. ALEXANDER rose, and said'he would not go farther into the case, as an arrange ment was likely to be entered into between the parties. A consultation then took place between the opposing counsel and their clients, which ended in au agreement to withdraw a juror. LOCKEFtBY V. LOM AX AND ANOTHER. 'This was an action brought by Mr. William Lockerby, mer chant and shipowner, of this town, against Messrs. Loinax and Wilson, shipbuilders, to recover the sum of £Bl7. 15s. Od. as compensation for loss alleged to have been sustained by him in consequence of the non-fulfilment of a contract into which they had entered with the defendants. It appeared that, in the year 1833, plaintiff, being desirous of having a vessel built in time to be dispatched to China, on the opening of the trade to that country, applied to the defendants for that purpose. On the 12th of October, 1833, a contract was entered into between the parties, according to terms of which the defendants were to build a vessel of 3-10 tons register, at thirteen guineas . per ton ; the frame to be completed by the Ist of March ensuing, and the vessel to be launched by the Ist of August, 1831,-• The first part of the contract was completed. It was agreed in the contract, that, when the frame of the vessel was completed, he _(the plaintiff) was to pay £1000; when the decks were laid, another £1000; and the remainder when the vessel should be launched. The defendants then applied to the plaintiff, stating that it would be a convenience to them if he would allow, the breadth of beam to be increased by five or six inches; to which plaintiff replied, that he had no objection. The vessel arrived at the second stage named in the.contraet and the second instal- Meat was duly paid. She was, however, not launched till the 4th of October, though the contract distinctly specified that she Was to be ready by the Ist of August.' In consequence of this delay; the plaintiff alleged that it was too late to dispatch the vessel to China iii time for the loading season, and that he had lost a fieight which lie had agreed for with the house of Baring and Co. It appeared, however, for the defence, that, when the vessel had arrived at the first stage, and the plaintiff, who was in London at the time, was informed of the fact, he requested that she might remain in that state for a week or ten days till his return : also, that the difference in the breadth of beam' in creased the tonnage of the vessel from 310 to 366 tons. He was informed that she would be ready furlatinching in Septem ber, and that, if not launched then, she could not be floated for a month on account of the state of the tides. To this Mr. Lock erby replied, that he did not mind if she were nut . launched for a month •; and a letter written by him to th e def e nd an t s wa s .produced', in which occured the following passage :—" klaVidg given you a lengthened period for the completion of the ves sel, I am warranted in thus addressing you." The learned JI-DGE said, that this extension of time on the part of the plaintiff had released the defendants from the obli-: gation implied in the contract; and the Jury, under his lord.: ship's direction, returned a verdict in favour of the defend ants f. LIDEL.-3ALMON V. PODEN. This was an action to recover compensation in d4mages for the injury which the plaintiff's character had sustained by the publication of a libel in the Liverpool Cuisrier , in the form of a report of a case at the Police-office. The trial did not proceed, however, the defendant, through his counsel, stating that the paragraph originated in a mistake as to the person, and apologi zing for the errorinto which he had been unintentionally betrayed. As the vindication of his character was the sole object the plain tiff had ill view in bringing the action, the apology was accep ted, and a verdict taken for the plaintiff. HONDA Y. (Before Lord •AIIINGER.) ROBINSON V. SMITH. JOHNSON V. RIDGRWAY. This was an action to recover the amount of moneys expended on repairs of a house o ccu pi e d as t enan t b y M r . Rid gewa y. The defendant had paid into court £IS as the amount due for repairs. • Mr. ALEXANDER, with whom was Mr. CROMPTON • was pro ceeding to define the duration and nature of Mr. Ridgeway's occupancy and other"general circumstances, when The Learned JUDGE.—I think, Mr. Alexander, the only question is as to the repairs. Mr. ALEXANDER.—Yes, my lord. His Loansuir.—Why, then, state all this? It is not wanted. Mr. ALEXANDER.— GPntlemen, this is an inquiry as to the amount of repairs. My cliant claims so.inuch, and I shall call my witnesses, and so sit down. I always consider that the whole nature of a case chould come udder the cognizance of a jury, and lam sure that they will thou-be able to adjudicate mneh more satisfactory. The learned gentleman concluded .his address, and having done so, expressed his readiness to leave the question of the extent of repairs to an arbitrator; hut as Mr. Cresswell would not consent; on behalf of. the defendant, • the cause proceeded, and the jury found iu his favour. LIBEL. --READ V. VADE. Mr. BLACK BURN opened this case, which was an action of dauuigcs for libel. The plaintiff was formerly a respectable in habitant of Coventry, but, b e i ng re d uce d in his circumstances, be came to this town, and was employed by Mr. Vade, a print seller, Scc., who published respecting him a notice to the follow ing effect in the Liverpool Mercury:—" Whereas Samuel Read, I formerly of Coventry, having been received - into my employ for the sake of charily, a short time ago condected himself in such a manner as to render his immediate discharge necessary, and since his dismissal has endeavoured fraudulently to obtain mo ney owing to me without my authority, This is to request that no accounts of mine be paid to Samuel Read, who is neither authorized nor instructed to receive money-or transact any kind of business in my name." This n.tice, slightly alter e d by the proprietors of the Mercury, appeared in that paper on the 7th November. The learned counsel alleged that it had been ex tremely. 'injurious to his client, and the action was brought 16 recover compensation for the injury so inflicted. The learned gentleman, having briefly stated the facts, called Rogerson.—l am one of the publishers of the Liverpool Mercury. I know Sam. Tucker, and recollect his coining to the office on the oth NOvember with an advertisement (which he produced.) Ido not know the handwriting. A few_words were taken out, and Others substituted, and it was published ett the-7th 'November. Robert Somerville.-1 am assistant to my brother, a hOsier in LiverpoOl. know the plaintiff, Who, ashen I first 'knew him, 'was a merchant at Coventry. The defendant is a stationer and dealer in prints at Liverpool. I remember the defendant read ingthe adYertisement to my brother, and calling to caution him against paying the plaintiff any money. A month afterwards ado observed he did not think Read could bring an action into court against him, for he had not the means. lie thought a lawyer would not take it. Gross-exiniined.—Read told me afterwards that he should have got aome money if Mr. Vude had not f o ll owe d hi m too sharply to the customers. Thomas. Hague, an engraver and printer.—Knows Read. Had some negotiation with him last year about employing him about nine or ten months ago. He was to solicit orders on a commission of 10 per cent. A person named Jordan, my fore man, was instructed to give him some cards of introduction. Saw an advertisement in the paper on the 7th November, about a fortnight after the agreement, Which was thereupon broken off. Perhaps he might have made 30s. a week. Cross-examined.—Did not apply' for any character when II engaged him. Mr. Jordan, foreman to the last witness, confirmed his state ment.—A man may get from this canvassing 15s. a week, or he may get £2 or £3, Mr. Cits:sswitt.t. regretted the plaintiff had brought this ac tion, inasmuch as it would only tend to make thematter of com plaint more public, and it must at all events ba a losing game to • the defendant, the plaintiff having no means to pay his costs,' and this - being in fact a speculative action. Th e l earne d gen ' tlernan contended that the defendant was bound in self-defence to issue the advertisement. He should show by evidence that the plaintiff had gone round to the customers up to.the very time of' the public cautionary advertisement, attempting to ob tain money, and, in some cases, had offered large discounts-to induce customers to pay money to - him. Thomas 'Meadows, Thomas Fawcett, and others, were called to substantiate these statements.—Verdict for the defendant. Sheriff Raphael's taste of Parliament will cost him, we hear, from first to last, little short - of £5,000. We know not exactly how inueh,per day this will have been for the honour of stewing in the House of Commons during part of the dog-days. RELICS of THE CIVIL WARS.—The labourers employed in excavating the ground at the brow of the hill in Dam e P ug l ey ' s field. above Stoke's crpft, h•ave within the last few days dog into an ash-pit on the site where, ,, in 1645, stood Prior's-hill Fort, .one of the fortifications raised against the protector's army under General Fairfax, then besieging Bristol. In this pit were found numerous bullets, small measures supposed to have been used for the Tsarpose of charging muskets with the proper quantity of powder, curiously-formed tohaeco-pipes with short stems, &c. Many of these are now in the possession of collectors.—Bath Journal.
