Patterns ImritTit;flamtr.—This

ham, in Northamptonshire, to recover of Mr. Savage, the
landlord of the Rising Sun public-house, in the New-road,
compensation in damages for an @result and false imprison-
ment. Mr. Parry appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Prentice for
the defendant. The plaintiff wee accustomed to spend much
of his time in London on business matten, and whilst in
tern he lived at the Lord Nelson tavern 'n the New-road.
On the 18th of August last, he went to the Burton-station to
proceed to York by an express train, hut he arrived too late.
On his return he was accosted by two women, who asked
him to treat them. but he declined. He went to the defend-
ant's house, where he was known, the women went in after
him, ant: were supplied with brandy and water. The plaintiff
went to the Liar Nelson, end was having supper with
the family, when the defendant's barman went in
and accused him of having gone away without paying for
the Honors he had treated the women with. In conse-
quence of this, the plaintiff went back and denied that he
had ever ordered the liquor for the women, and refused to
pay for it, whereupon there was au exchange of some oppro-
hrs epithets between the plaintiff end defendant. The
defendant seized his special constable's staff, and ordered the
plaintiff out of the house, spot•. which a great disturhatiee
took place, and some glass was broken. The plaintiff was
ejected, and a policeman being pres nt, the defendant rave
him into custody. He was looted up for two hours, until bail
was procured, and on the following morning he was charged
before the magistrate with crewing a disturbance in hie
house, and wilfally breaking glue. The charge was dis-
missed, as it was sworn that the glue had been broken by
the defendant himself, but the plaintiff was ordered to pay
for the brandy and water.—Fer the defence, it was contended
by Mr. Prentice that the defendant had done nothing mere
than, vat'sir the circumstances, the law allowe.i him to do.
He was answerahle to the law for the duly keeping of his
house in an orderly, peaceable manner, and when he saw the
plaintiff wee creatiag a disturbance, and refused to leave
when ordered to do so, he used his undoubted right to expel
►im. The plaintiff broke the glue, and that was an offence
against the Police Act, and therefore M wee acting properly
in giving him into custody.—The Undersheriff exprueed au
opinion that though the defendant had a right to eject the
plaintiff from his house, he had no right to give him in•o
eastody.—The jury found for the plaintiff—damages, one
iarthing.
