COURT OF COMMON PLEAI3.—Fas. 6.
&Wags at Nisi Priam la lfiddlsmox.—(Botore Lord Chief
Justice Brio aad a Special Jary.)
TOXICELL o. THOMML-SZWING *Amens..

The plaintiff in this case was the 'Amigos.) of a patent for
improvements in machinery for sewing and stitching, which
was, on the 16th of October, 1852, granted to Mr. Judicial',
an American gentleman, and the action was to recover da-
mages for an alleged infringement of this patent.
Mr. Grove, Mr. Manisty, and Mr. Aston appeared for
the plaintiff ; and Mr. Bovill, Mr. Hindmarch, Mr. Web-
ster, and Mr. Murphy for the defendant.
The case was called on at the sitting of the court, but so
little progress was made that at the close of the day the
first witaem was still under examination. The question in
• .

the cane will tarn upon a variety of resemblenees and dif-
ferences between a number of sewing machines, of which it
would be impossible to convey an idea without an inspection
of the articles.

---
The cue was not concluded at the rising of the court.

servant in the same employ. There was one child born of the
union. The respondent afterward, became addicted to

dent was one " Salopy Dick," who was described as a ooster-
monger and a militiaman.
The case having been proved.
Sir C. Crewmen said the petition did not contain a direct
charge of adultery. He must therefore direct an amended
petition to be served on the respondents.
Mr. Gibbon for the petitioner.
COREY V. COREY.

The petitioner, whowS; engaged in the merchant ear -
vice, married the respondent in 1859. On the 20th of

(More Mr. Comminioner nine.)
13 TM CRARI.X4 STANBIED(!I.

The bankrupt was described ma a merchant, of Panama.
lane. This was the sitting for examination and discharge.
The unsecured debts are 7441. ; the only items on the other
side the amount consist of bad debts.
Mr. Stanford opposed for Mr. Prefab, a creditor, and
asked fora deficiency amount. The bankrupt had ariesd
through the court in May, 1860. and it was desirable that
he should show how his large deficiency had arisen in that
interval.
Mr. Goodday, for the official smignesasho required a
goods amount.
Mr. H. Reed was for the bankrupt.
The order of discharge was adjourned.
IN DI C. J. CLARK.

..1f RE ULRICH.-A CLAIMANT ON ME ADMIRALTY.

.. ---
The bankrupt, John Gottlieb Ulrich, was a watchmaker,
of Weßelo's-square. He applied for his order of discharge,
owing 6561., with no assets.
Mr. Goodday, for the official assignee, offered no opposi-
tion. He stated that the bankrupt had expected to receive
a reward of 10,0001. from the Admiralty, for the production
of an improved chronometer, which should not vary more
than two minutes in a veer.
The Commissioner—What was the nature of the improve-
ment for which he claimed remuneration
The Bankrupt—lntroducing a compensation for changes
of temperature. lam in possession of official papers from
the House of Commons, in which what I state is fully cor-
roborated. Though the Admiralty reward was obtained by
one of the other competitors, the four judges appointed by
the Admiralty, Mr. Webb, Hr. Vulliamy, Mr. Frodsham,
and Mr. Barwise, all chronometer makers, were unanimous
in their approval of my invention. I consider myself anti.
tied to some remuneration from the government for my
outlay in advertisements, kc., by which my present debts
have been incurred.
His Honour, observing that the bankrupt was evidently
a parson of great ingenuity, granted the order of discharge.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)
IN 111 FIIZDZIICZ DR CASTRO JONEN.

The bankrupt, formerly • lieutenant in the Indian army,
bad recently traded as a commission and scholastic agent, a
Tavisto,ik-street, Coventgardeo. This was the sitting for
examinatiou and ducharge. The debts were only 1494 ;
no assets.
Mr. Cearten opposed ; Mr. Sargood supported.
It appeared that the bankrupt had been twice insolvent—
in 1858 and 1858. He had • pension of 451. a-year in con.
sideiation of bruises received during service. His wife had
some property settled on her, worth about 2,1001.; but his
interest in the property was assigned to a creditor.
His Honour thought it was impossible for the bankrupt,
with a wife and family, to set anything amde out of his
mall pension of 451. Though he had been twice insolvent
was not urged against him that he had contracted debts
without probable means of payment. He would, therefore,
receive his order of discharge.
