Mr. Moore moved the confirmation of the Muster's re-
port, recommending the application of a sum of 3001. for
the support of the !tomato. Be had been committed to
the Queen's prison fora contempt
The Lord Chancellor mid be should make no order in this
matter till the lunatic was out of prison. It was scandalous
to keep a lunatic in prison for contempt. It he granted this
order he would probably be suffered to remain there.
Mr. Moore was understood to say that the lunatic bad
been discharged from the etencpt, and it wee desired to
have his lordehip's order for his removal
The Lord Chancellor would grant the power for his re-
moval, and the matter ibr the confirmation of the Master's
report must be mentioned 'gala.

Their line, when completed to Oxford, m proposed by the
defendants, would be a line capable of being worked
in continuation of tho Groat Western to Wolverhampton,
and the obligation imposed by the set would have been
satisfied. It was for the company to judge which part of
their line it was for their interest to oyes first; and the
Great Western would have ample redress if the obligation
to make and work the line on the broad pugs should not
be performed in du time.
The motion was dismissed, and the court made no order
as to costs.
