NOTES OF THE WICEIL

Mr. Bright is not often crom, and Mr. Oran is not
ofte bright ; but the lad speech at the " tribune of the
people—m he has been called—does display • little i
acerbity, and the counterblast of the Home fimeatary
Is somewhat less heavy than a good deal he haa had to
sxy. But if Mr. Bright is illogical, Mr. Cross Is un-
convincing, and from neither one nor the other is it
easy to obtains clear view of the situation; nor does
Mr. Bourkes energetic language help us. The eeuilts7

The decision of the Court of Appeal on the Hertford
College case is • great blow to the University Tests
Act. It is well that no strong a Bench as Lord
Coleridge and Lord Jostling &unwell, Brett, and
BurgeHay should have hard the tune*/ from two:
such able judges am Junior; Mellor and Lush. If the
doctrine of' the Court of Appeal be true, tinder the
recent Act for the abolition of Tests, whilst • Nonoon-
formist can compel the College to examine him for •
fellowship, he cannot compel them to elect him, e'en
though he be first in the examination. This is by far
the most serious part of Lord Colesidge's j_t_Agment,
for it makes the Act of Parliament practically • dead
letter. There is mach more to be said for the further
decision that "The University Tests Ant dons not of
Been prevent the erection in the Universities of fresh
Colleges; the endowment of which may be confined to
members of a particular religious communky." The
only resaonabis ground for the abolition of TeAs was,
that the endowments of the Universities were for the
most part conferred at • tines when there was only
one form of worship in the country, and when, since
as Dissenters existed, there can be nothing to IlilOW a
disposition on the part of Pounders to exclude
Dissenters. It seems hard to say that the donor of •
scholarship shall not now be allowed to limit the
enjoymenta of his gift to those of his own persuasion.
Under the judgment of the Court of Appeal, it will be
possible for every sect of Nonconformists to endow
scholarships for thole of their own way of thinking.
No doubt, however, the Hertford Colledge came will be
canted to the House of Lords, and it remains to be
seen whether the Presbyterian Cairns will agree with
Lush the Baptist or Coleridge the High Churchman.
A sergeant of the Militia Reserve has complained
that on being called upon to join for Army service, he
has been put Into the ranks with the duties and pay of
a private soldier. Such treatment is manifestly
unjust, but, on the other band, It will be readily
understood that a aergeant's vacancy could scarcely be
made for him in a Line regiment, even if he were
competent to take up the duties, which his new
oomrsdes might doubt. The point in one of some
difficulty, Rad it is to be hoped • satisfactory solution
of it will be found.

THE ACTION AGAINST ALDERMAN ROGEIII3,
OF POOLE.
An appeal editing out of the ideal law can of Elegathems
v. lepers was argued in the Court of Appeal at West-
minster on Thursday and Friday last, before Lord.
Justices Bramwell, Haggett, end Brett The plaintiff in
the action is Mr. Joshua Hutchinson, a London stock-
broker, and the defendant is Mr. Francis Time.'ll
=• Justice of the Peace and Aldermen of the
of Poole, who now resides at North Petherton
Somenet.
R.lt.7oiiillui, Q.C., and Mr. Dean, instructed by Mestere
and Wekh, of London. appeared for the defen-
Cdahartne support of tth eiseil ; and Mr. Prideauxii.
Mr. C7thrlea, Q.C., and Mr. Foote instructed by
Fined, Crowder, and Co., al London, agents for Mr.
Lionel Budge, of Poole, were for the respondent, the
plaintiff in the action.
Mr. Willis. Q.C., in opening the case, said that it was an
• peal from • decision of the Court of Exchequer dl..
cng • rule the defendant had obtained for • new trial
csteifroimd that the verdict was against eirklimea The
counsel hoped to be able to satisfy the court that,
upon the evidence of the plaintiff himself, the verdict
ought to have been given for the defendant, and that bid
for • misapprehension on the pert of the Lord Chief Heron
ead mr, germ Pollock, no to the effect of the defendant's
pie% the judgment should be in favour a the defendant
The- plaintiff was • Joshua Hutchinson, the surviving
partner of a firm of Hutchinson and Bon, stock and share'
brokers, at lA Angel-court, in the city of London. The
defendant, Francis Timewell Bogen, was • gentlemen
residing at Poole, in the county of Dorset. In July. 1870,
the plaintiffs had bed certain speculative tousections on
the stock Exchange which they had undertaken at the
Instance of Mr. Roger., and in respect thereof they
bad a claim theituit Min fur the sum of 41.813 13e. Al.
That sum was the balance of an account due from
the defendant to Hutchinsou and lion, for work done
by them as brokers, for commission, and for
money nail. An account was taken on the 15th
of July, 1878. showing that sum to be due from defendant
and on the Mad of July, Hutchinson and Son gave to the
defendant the following receipt :—" Received of 11.r.1T. T.
Rogers, the suns of fourteen hundred and six pounds,
sixteen shilling, and nine Penn, in climb...re of the above
balance excepting as far as £5lO from Mr. Lewin. which
rf received is lobe divided among his creditors. (Signed),
HUTCHINSON and Soh.' Five years after the date of that
receipt the present action was commenced for the moiety
of the debt due from Mr. Rogers, and • verdict was given
by the jury and continued by the Court of Exchequer, for
the sum of £1,4041 Ida 1.1. The evidence, however,
staffed that having obtained 10s. in the pound Hutchinson
and Bon placed the other half of the sum due to the profit
and loss or:vaunt of their firm. Mr. Hutchinson, died,
and then Mr. John. Hutchinson, the present plyintiff.
brought the action for the balance. Upon iedructions
given to the pleader by the defendant it was pleaded, in
defence to the action, that 10s. in the pound was paid to
Hutchinson, on account in full of their claim, Mr. Rogers
withdrawing the objections he had to make to certain
items ot the account. ne defence was founded in the
Ant instead upon time, facts alone, but when the
case Mine into the bands of the Solici ter-General
and ,himself it was •ieen HI 0. there was another
defence. It was that Rogers had speculated on the Stock
Exchange net only through Hutchinson and Bon but
through snot ~.e dock'iroker —a Mr. Herepeth. There-
fore, in thiy, is7o, Mr. lt• lei, use indebted in the suni
04 law U., no. to ilinchineen and Bon, and to Mr.
Herepah in the SUM st £1.310. It was clear on the
evidenee that Iligepath snit Huichiumn, being both stock
•gchange creditor., ii statement of Roes& affairs was
placed I,f-co them, chewing • hot if his other creditoll
and of 1,......te. An alenliganleng nee wide by which
the othir i•reditore agreed to sire time, and with respect
to liiitchineon and Heripath the proposal WY made to
them to take .sum r( mouey at once tor the purpse of
atisfying their claims. It was proved at the trial that
gimp:db. through Mr. Ferrer, ha solicitor, the managing
clerk to Climate and Welch, made an agreement with
Hutchinson and Son th it they should each take 10,1. In
the pound. In addition, therefore, to the defence to the
action, resting on the fact that Hutchinson and Sin had
to accept Ills, in the .1; in cutaidenttion of Rogers
elgrdd r,ing his objections to certain items in the
account, :here was sho a clear and substantial defence In
die fact the t two creditors had agreed with the debtor
and arranged themselves to take HO in the pound in
satisfaction of their claims.
Lord Justin Brett observed that is question was put to
the jury is to whether Hutchinson hail agreed to take 10s.
In the pound if Herenth would, and that had been
amassed in the negative.
Mr. Willis said there was n it the least evidence on that
point. He would then read the plea raisiux the defence
he ded rumitionid, which he drew up in court, and which
was placed= the record at the trial of the action pursuant
to leave i-rantol by the Lord Chief Baron. At the time
a the agreement hereinafter mentioned, the defendant
was indebted to the plaintiff, as alleged by him, in the
Aim of LAM 13s. 61., and toe Mr. Herepath in the sum
of ALVA and it was agreed by and between the plaintiff,
and the said Mr. Ilerepath and the defendant, that if the
defonditut would pay to the plaintiff and to the said Mr.
Herepath the sum of 10a in the pound on their respective
debts, then the aid plaintiff and the said Mr. Herepoth
would accept the same in satisfaction and discharge of
their respective debts, and the said defendant agreed to
pay the said sum of 10s, in the pound to each of them on
amount of their said respective debta. Afterwards, in
pennon of the said agreement, the defendant paid to the
plaintiff and the said Mr. Herepeth the said sum of 10s.
In the pound en their respected debts, and the said Mr.
Rereaeth, and the plaintiff, received the said gam in
awaaeace of the said agreement and upon the terms
aforesaid. At the time of thesaid payment to the plaintiff,
rain tilt gave the defendant • receipt as follows: 'July
Masan £6,813 13s, Ad. fend July, the defendant
received of Mr. P. T. R:seill,4o6 16s, AL. in discharge
of the above balance excepting as ler as £540 from Mi.
Leerth, which, if received, is to be divided amongst his
caditere —8 nliti.einid,,Hincithisoe and Sow.* At the time
et the receipt being the defendant WY entitled to
naive • enni of from a Mn. Lewin, and the defendant
agreed with the ' that he would hold the mid claim
In head for his creditors, and he would distribute the said
snot or allow the said sun to be distributed when relined
at the time of the said receipt This plea, he should
contend, was proved by the evidence and constituted •
complete defence in law. The reel rowan for the action
being brought was that lona property of Mr. Regan had
bemuse more valuable. A house which he valued in 1870
at LUDO had recently been sold by him for £OO. Tn.,
~,,,, pissed by Mr. Prideanic in the course of the trial as •
matter almost of fraud. He would next read the
seimming up of the Lord Chid Baron.
On its conclusion Lord Justice Bramwell observed that
it seemed • very fair exposition at the law.
Mr. Willis said he found no fault with it. The jury
fined • verdict for the plaintiff: a mane for • new trial
wee created, but was not made absolute From that
decisme the defendant now appealed. There was clear
evidence that an arrangement had been made for the
plaintiffs and Harepath to Mk* Illa in the pound. It was
a lair araamentent, and the defendant et the lime loor-
rowed various sums of moony to enable him to carry is
oat,
Lord Justice Bramwell remarked that it was dear that
sorbtrzgotuld agree to take 104. in the pound in ceepeat
Lord Justin Brett said that not only must each creditor
agreeing to the arrailgeniest bind himself to take it, but
he must do se because the others sgreed.

court. He said they were of opiates that the Mee most

We have no sympathy with "the languishing noble-
man" and certainly our respect for our judges Is—well
not increasing. But we cannot help remarking the
Lord Chief Justice has recently taken to bullying Ms
jniOn ; that Hawkins is evidently endeavouring to
K tVesterhimself for the occupation of the house in
, where Mr. James Spioer now presents to
Me patron ware-ioas artistic production., notions, but which
was at one time the " lodgings of the sanguineous
lamb Judge Jefferise ; and that Lord Coleridge is
maintaining the reputation he acquired when In pro-
secuting Orton, he used • number of forged letters to
base the unfortunate man. Merin, to the recent
revelations concerning the case of Constanoe Kent
the /km miner pointedly-pointa-out
The extraordinary part of the story, however, is that
Dr. Borknill and Lord Coleridge are somehow at variance;
for the latter stated in open Court, after the plea of guilty'
had been entered, that him client expressly desired him to
say that she had not been driven to the terrible act, as bad
been asserted, by any unkind treatment of her mother-in- I
law. and that she had met with nothing at home but
tender and forbearing love. "I hope I may add, my lord,"
Kr. Coleridge continued, not Improperly, "that it eivee
me • melancholy pleasure to he made the organ of these
statement:B, because, on my honour. I Wino then to he
MU." Now, here is, to Yr the least of It.rdVerll curious
difference between Dr. Burknill and Coleridge
According to Dr. Buckaill, if there is any meaning
in words, Lord Coleridge knew before he went into court
that the girl had murdered her brother out of hatred to
her stepmother. Lord Coleridge's own statement in Court
LS Absolutely incompatible with this, and the matter Is
one which certainly needs to he cleared up.
The "silver-tongued" Coleridge will, probably, not
deign to reply to this, bat, at any rate it looks Ince a
code held—Jesuitical- ly—moral of doing evil that good
may come which one cannot but lament.

she this said to the sergeant "The ides of your bringing
a trumpery militia boy her to me, I won't he so insulted.
She also said" If anyone offered me anything sad I kenr
It to be stolen I wouldn't buy it, and I would give you any
Information.
The Clerk: Now do you mean deliberately to swear she
said that? Its • serious thing.
Gould: Teo sir, and she said I wont west's my breath
upon you Mitchell, you want me to take a fake oath, arid
she then went into another room.
Crosoexamined : It was when Mitchell waited her to
Identify the man that she said that. He bad been seven
years in the force.
Mr. Howard: Now what on earth step did you expect
her to take to find out the men when it Wall in the bands
of the police / To put on her beet gown and bonnet, and go
out for them, aye? (no answer.)
And then she told you if you cannot find it out how can

Sermant M Udall went and asked Mm Rogan if she could

their overcoats on and he asked them to turn collars
up. Mrs. Rogers looked at them and said to Reed. I
think you are the man that brought a waistcoat here

a hemp of clothes, and Read said that was the one. Then,
she said, I believe you are the one that came with the
other man with the boots.
Orossexamined ; How long have you been in the force
—Well, not quite 15 years. —And now being • good and
zealous policeman as rye no doubt you are, let me ask
you if you could not find out the robbery how on earth
you expected that poor woman to do it / Whatever steps
did you expect, her to take thought she might have
given us some assistance. She didn't tall us she had seen
Read with the waistcoat or anything of the sort.—
Certainly not until you took him in and he identified the
waistcoat he had sold there.
Charles Len • private in the militia and billeted at the
White Horse, saw Read and Freak, go up into the

his left arm.
Marie Cole was engaged in doing some painting at
Mrs. Rogers's, and saw two men who came in and sold a
pair of boots. He could not swear to them, but he
believed Presley was one of them.
Croas-examined : The man had them under his ann, not
concealed at all, and said they leiontr to a friend who
bad no further use for th M ou. ra. era gave e.
There was nothing at all secret about He certainly
thought there was nothing wrong about it, and took but
little notice of it.
John Pains manager for the Mimes Curtis, identified
the boots, ea Bristol make and the retail price would be
new. They did not look as if they had been worn
numb. He couldn t tell what they were now worth—in
the second-hand trade.
Cross-examined : They were pegged boots, and not so
valuable as sewn. They were to be bought at ell Prime
Mr. Goering,. foreman to Mrs. Permian in the boot and
shoe department, also thought them Bristol boots, and
considered them for • working man to wear at once they
would be worth about is. Si.
Oroesexamined : If he had to buy them second hand to
sell again he would not give more than is. 151., or sa.
This was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. Howard in his defence, mid as the cam had created
some talk he was glad the prossestlan had adopted • fair
way and had brought every witness they could possibly
hunt up to support the information. He wee not going to
wade through the whole of the evidence step by step, but
he would shortly call their attention to its most salient
features. In the first place they had Mrs. Roger., who
had been living in the town foe a period of something like
30 years, therefore her sespectablilty was manifest. Still
respectability had nothing to do with these cases, but,
undeubtedly character should weigh with them, and in •
mos where the evidence was circumstantial it should the
mare. Now during the whole time Mrs. &were had been
in business not one word could be said against the
fairness and honesty of her transactions or uprightness of
&scooter. Mr. Howard then proceeded to review the
evidence. He asked what ingredient it contained to
show that Mrs. Rogers bad the slightest knowledge the
boots were stelen—a fair price was given and the bargain
was crendnetedopenly and beam a third person. Further
