Ermine° Aar.—Tbia was a motion to discharge an jejune-
lion granted by the Viee-Chancellor some days ago (as this
reported in this journal) against the defendant's re-building
a house, on its original site, forward-into the sheet, inMA
of throwing it backward, as the local building sets required.
The Lord Chancellor suggested, in the course of the argu-
ment, that ft would be better if the parties could come to a
friendly arrangement ; and for that purpose his lordship de-
sired the motion to stand over for a week.

HULIFI V. CHITIT.—A.LTEILATION OF DECREE.—Mr.
Robson moved in this cams that the decree made by his lord-
ship, on farther directions, might be varied. The salt was
instituted to administer the trusts of a deed executed by the
late Mr. Joseph Chitty in favour of hie children. One of the
children (Henry Chitty) had charged his share of the trust
funds with en annuity in favour of Mr. John Wayman, de-
ceased; and by the decree certain arrears: found by the
master to be due on account of the annuity, were ordered to
be paid to the defendants, Mews. John 'Walter and Win.
Tynley Bpurdem, the executors of Wayman, and the costs of
Maws Walter and Bpurdem in the suit were ordered to be
paid to Mr. Walter, who had since died. The present ap.
ptication was, that the decree might he varied, by directing
the arrears of the annuity to be paid to Walter and Broaden,
or either of them, and their costs to Mr. Pemberton, who was
the ureic*/ partner of Mr. Walter, and had with him
acted as solicitor in the suit for Wayman's executors.—
The Muter of the Rolls said that the surviving executor of
Waymsa had a right to receive the arrears of the annuity,
and the decree would, therefore, be varied by inserting the
words, "or the survivors of them," after the direction to
pay the wean of the annuity to Walter and Spurdem. But
it was different as to the costs, and he could not order them
to be paid to Mr. Pemberton without the concurrence of
Walter's executers. His lordship disposed of several mo-
tions and shad unmet no interest.

mos granted in this cue in March last, to restrain the de-
'Want Hall and others from proceeding to issue a fiat in
bemkruptcy against the plaintiff, a merchant at Halifax, on
the ground that the defendant had authorised his son to sign
a deed of compcsitlon. That injunction was subsequently
dissolved as to the defendant, Hall, upon his proving
that he had sent his son to the meeting held by the creditors
for the purpose only of watching the proceedings, but with-
out any power to sign the deed of composition. An order
was now obtained that the injunction should be dissolved as
to all the other defendants in the cause.

TO • Warr or HAILS Connie.—Mr. Knowles, Q.C.,
and Mr. Pashley appeared for the plaintiff, who is
the son of the late William Cobbett, and his
this action spinet ths keeper of the Queen's
son for a Mee return to a writ of habeas corpus It
eppearod that Mr. Cobbett, having been committed by the
Court of Exchequer for a contempt in neglecting to answer
a bill on the equity side of that court, applied twice for a
writ of habeas corpus to the Court of Common Plow. On
the first eoesaioa he was remanded on the introduction into a
defective return, by peewee:on of a ju of an averment
that he had bees, on a certain day, brought dge, before the Court
of Exchequer at Westminster, and then and there remanded
on his committal. The return, so amended, was not filed as
of record ; and there was, therefore, no opportunity of trying
its validity. On the second occasion &return was made that
contained the amended statement; and that was filed of
record. The statement, however, was of a fact which had '
occurred before the defendant became keeper of the Queen's
Prison. The return having been produced, and the date of
the defendant's appointment shown, the plaintiff's we was
closed.—Mr. Watson, Q.C., and Mr. Unthank then sub-
mitted, for the defendant, that the question was, whether or
not the return was true in fact ; and that, in the absence of
evidence showing the return to be false in fact, there was no
case to go to the jury. Whether the defendant of his own
knowledge knew the return to be true was unimportant.
Lord Denman thought the objection fatal, and the plain-
tiff was noosuited.

that, in November lest, in poignance of a resehsties sem SO
by the general body of proprietors of the &Mk Welters
Railway, the directors resolved to increase thdr eafife
the purposes of the extension of the railway,* •
number of new 601. shares, and, accordingly, an the of
January the scrip for those shares wee maid. He could
not say precisely how many scrip certificates bad been
ismed at the time of the transaction referred to by Mr.
Berkley, but he should ray there were not more than
a thousand. The amount of deposit upon this scrip
wu St upon each, and the eighty scrip now produced
purported to be the scrip for those new shares ; but the
whole of them were forgeries in every particular. In a reso-
lution printed at the back of the scrip, the word " propor-
tionate " was wrongly spelt, the third "o " being omitted
in every one of the forged documents, but in the genuine
instrument it wu properly spelt.
Mrs. Mary Anne Dingle y, was then celled to prove that
the prisoner lived at her house in Birmingham, under the
um of Perry during the period referred to by Mr. Berkley,

A that he riceivedll letters addressed in eget name.
Mr, Clarkson then tendered evidence of the guilty know-
ledge of the prisoner, showing that subsequently to the
transaction with the g ntlemen above-named, the prisoner
was dealing with a number of other forged certificates of
a precisely similar character. It will not be neosseary
to go into the evidence in detail, as none of the
facts were disputed, and they have been given very messily
in the Mansion-house police report. It appeared that, on
the 9th April, the prisoner wrote to the members of the new
money market and stock exchange in the city, in the name
of J. L. Craven, requesting them to sell fifty scrip of the
South Western new shares, which were enclosed in the
letter, which, after an inquiry at the company's office, Nine
Elm', were accordingly sold, and a cheque for 2591. returned
by the prisoner's messenger. The clerk at the bank of Sir
C. Piles accidentally overpaid the cheque by the amount of
40i., and four 101. notes, the produce of that over-payment,
were afterwards traced to the prisoner. •
Mr. J. A Fitzgerald deposed that he took the fifty scrip In
question to the railway company's station at Nine Elms, and
inquired if they were genuine, and one of the clerks looked
at them, and said they were perfectly genuine.
Mr. Morgan, the secretary to the company, proved that
these instruments were all forgeries, and that they appeared
to have bren struck from the some die or plate as the others
that had been told by Mr. Berkley. There was the same
mistake in the word proportionate at the back of the instru-
ment, and the numbers were higher than any that had been
issued by the company.
Daniel Forrester, the officer, proved the apprehension of
the prisoner, and also that be said he had not been in Bir-
mingham for two years and a half, and denied having
applied
eieslor any letters at the Post-office in Moorgate-street
to Mr. Perry.
Mr. Woman was re-called ; and in answer to a quietism
put by Mr. Idallantine, he said he did not believe the name
of the prisoner was among those who had signed the fob-
scribers' agreement and the parliamentary contract.
The legged instruments were put in, and one was read.
It was to the usual effect.
Mr. Ballantine then addressed the court, sad said
he should 'Omit to their lordships that there was
no ease to go to the jury, because the instrument
which was the subject of the alleged forgery, was
not, in truth, such an instrument as came within
the contemplation of the statute. After the decision
that had been come to in the recent case to which he
had alluded, he did not think it was necessary to trouble
their lordships much further with regard to the question as
to the instrument being a receipt.

that the qiestion should be gravely considered by the whole
of the judges, he considered that the case ought to go to the
jury, and tges.he point raised would then probably be considered

Mr. Clarkson said that the company whom be
would be perfectly satisfied with a decision so obtained,
would not take any further steps—Mr. Ballantine then mid
that he relied entirely upon the point of law ; and, as he
had no answer upon the facts of the case, he should not ad-
dress the jury.
Chief Justice Wilde then briefly Bummed up, and the jury
returned a verdict of Guilty, judgment being reepited, to
await the decision of the fifteen judges, in November next,
upon the point of law.
A question then AIM as to the disposal of the indictment
against Farmery, in which precisely the lame question was
involved, and it was arranged that this trial should stand
over for the decision of the judges. An application was
made by Mr. Huddlestone for the prisoner. to be liberated
upon ball, but this was opposed by the counsel for the pro-
secution, and eventuallyeuw the court directed that the prisoner
should remain in

27th of May, the prisoner, wbp was in a beastly state of
drunkenness, was reeling along a narrow pavement in

was passing her, she reeled against him, and knocked him
into the carriage-way, and a cart tasting by at the time ran
over him, and killed him. The jury found the prisoner

MONEY MARKET.
BETVIDAT EVENING.
The Bank returns, as exhibited under this head ,
this morning, made a favourable impression an the
stock exchange, which, with other mane eirepe-
rating, led to a more decided advance in Moak whew
than often his occurred on the ',satin/or day at the
week et this season of the year when barium is i
usually so inactive, and the attendance of dealers in
the house en pleader. Comb, were done at for
the opening, which was equal to 1 per cent. rise on i
the lest quotations of yesterday. The propitious state of
the weather doubtless entered for its share in this
I forward movement of the funds, and the accidents of
business in the house as well. A suspicion was early
entertained by shrewd observers of the business going I
on, which became subsequently more confirmed, that
certain parties who had operated largely for the fall
some time since at lower prices were buying in their
accounts. This was more especially remarked of one
party whose speculative sales some time since were of
the heaviest account. The considerable amounts of
the purchase transactions made in that sense might
not improbably have driven prices still higher, but
for males in another interest, with the apparent dispo-
sition to carry them still further on convenient
occasion, and without disturbance of a firm and en-
couraging market. It is understood that some one or
more of the parties connected as contractors or sub-
scribers with the eight millions loan availed them-
selves of the favouring circumstances of the day to
reduce the amount of their stake in that hitherto dead
weight of stock values, and were enabled to make
their sales so as to remain with a small balance of
profit on the transactions.
The report, which concurrently obtained currency,
that the Bank directors, in view of the more pros-
perous position of the affairs of the establishment,
contemplated at the next weekly board day a reduction
of the rate of interest or discount, was not without its
influence also in establishing greater confidence in the
rise, and in the probable progressive improvement of
prices. The report met with more credit than upon
a dispassionate appreciation of past events, and of
prospective possible contingencies, it should seem
entitled to, admitting present appearances to be so
promising as otherwise rather to appear to render this
an opportune moment for such a move. The rate of
interest, so far as now fixed and acted on, can hardly
be regarded as oppressive, for upon the average it is
scarcely higher than in the chief foreign money
markets, if higher at all. It is more the
easiness of money, or, in other words, the facility
of accommodation in loans and discounts, which is of
consequence to the trading interests than the price
which is charged for it, so long as that price does not
run into the riotous excesses of the Fame which pre-
vailed little more than two months since. At its
present rate of 5 per cent. for first-class paper, and 51
per cent, for parcels of a scarcely inferior class, the
Bank is now discounting upon terms quite as low as
the discount houses and bankers, indeed somewhat
lower upon the whole. The reason, or the urgency,
is therefore all the leas apparent why the -Bank,
which is engrossing a fair proportion of business,
and is acting liberally in its accommoda-
tion, should proceed to reduce its rate of interest at
this time. There must be still, and will in all proba-
bility be much more so before harvest, very large
quantities of foreign grain imports to be paid, over
