is HE Tll6 B.VONGSTOILE SCHOOL.

This was a oetition by way of appeal from an order
made by the bete Vice-Chancellor of England confirming
the Maater'a report, approving of a scheme for the govern-
tin it and regulation of the school at Ba,..iugstoke.
The Solicitor-General and Mr. W. M. James, for the
Attorney-General, in support of the petition, said that the
scheme approved of by the Master was objected to by the
Attotney-General in several particulars, hut principally on
the grounds—first, that it provided that the office of visitor
of the school should be vested in the Natio of Winchester
his successors, instead of in the crown ; secondly, that the
governors of the charity, in number seven, were, with the
exception of the mayor of Basingstoke, and vicar for the
time being, who were always to he members of the bode, to
be eligible annually, by the toss n council, and by the trus-
tees of municipal charities; and, thirdly, that the master-
ship, which was always to be held by a clergyman of the
church of England, was confined to graduates of one or other
of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge. The scheme
was of o objected to on other minor paints of detail.
Sir Walter Biddle for the curporationof Basingstoke, said
that the charity was not of royal foundation, but was re-
ported by the Master to have been founded by a former
bishop of Winchester, a Lord Sander, under a license of
hence 14th, and that the visitorslop was therefore properly
vented in the bishop for the time being. lie contended
that the power of clettion givenannually to the town council
and the municipal trusters, was a proper check, and would
prevent the Isely of governors from falling under the influ-
ence of the permanent members; there was nu objection to
allow any ordained member of the churcb,whether a gradu-
ate of Ozfonl or Cambridge or rot, to be appointed master.
Their Lordships intimated that they were of opinion that
the visiturship ought properly to be vested in the crown by
its ordinary jurisdiction in Chancery ; that the annual
election of governors should be preserved ; and that any or-
dained clergyman of the church, whether a graduate of
Oxford ur Cambridge or not, should be anmis-ible as
master. They directed that the seven governors should he
the mayor and vicar of Ilasingdoke for the time being,
two ',Arsons members of the church of England to be
chosen annually by the town council, and three
other members of the church to be elected annually by the
municipal trustees of charities for Basingstoke. The peti-
tion was then directed to stand over tilt Jittery Term that
counsel might arrange the minor detail of the scheme and
hr ready t submit the same for the approval of the court,
which would Le ready to act upon their suggestion without
referring the scheme back to the Master.

—...,—.
The plaintiff in this case is a jeweller, carrying on busi-
ness in Cornhill, and the defendant a printseller, living
next door. It was un action of trespass brought to esta-
blish the plaintiff's right to free ingress and egress to his
shop for himuilt and his customers, it being alleged that the
defendant personally obstructed the passage leading to the
plaintiff's shop. The defendant had pleaded the general
issue.

It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff that in 1843
the defendant granted a lease to the plaintiff of part of his
premix, on the papier nt of a premium of 140 i., and at a
rental of 1)01. per annum. The plaintiff also laid out about
(100 L in partitioning ed. a portion of the shop for his own
use, and cun•tructing a passage between the two shops.
There was but one passage by which entrance was ob-
tained to both of the shops, and there was a
glass door on either aide opening into each shop. For
many years the attendant had been in the habit
of standing at the dour reading a newspaper and gossiping
with his friends, during the greater part of the day. 11 hen
the tia“age was made, the defendant continued this prac-
tice, notwithstanding the frequent remonstrances of the
plaintiff, the obstruction caused by the defendant interfer-
ing consideralsly with the plaintiff's chance custom. The
defendant was in the habit of collecting groups of his
friends about the door, and when he was not standing
there, his sun generally occupied his place, the nuisance
being increa.sed from the fact of their both being portly
men. The plaintiff also complained that the defendant
could overhear conversations in his shop when the door or
fanlight was open. The plaintiff and several of his assist-
ants were called to prove the existence of the obstruction,
one or two of the latter having kept a journal of the num-
ber of times in a day they had observed Mr. Leggatt at the
door, and the period he had remained there on each MCA-
lion ; thereby rendering it difficult tor ladies and other per-
! sons to pass and enter the plaintiff's shop. Several custo-
mers of the plaintiff were also called to prove the impecli-
meat and annoyance which existed ; and amongst others
the wife of Dr. Bateman, who said that uu one occasion,
when the defendant and two or three gentlemen were
standing at the dour, the plaintiff was obliged to came out
and make way for her to pass, she having stood at the
door waiting to enter, without their attempting to move.
Sir F. Thesiger, on behalf of the defendant, contended
that no wilful or serious obstruction bad been caused by
his client, who had been accustomed to stand at his door
before he granted the lease to the plaintiff, and in granting
that lease he never contemplated any interference with his
right to do so still. The present action had only been
brought in consequence of some ill-feeling which had lately
sprung
up between the parties. lie hoped, therefore, that
the jury, under the CiSCUITUOILICti, would find a verdict for
the defendant.

Lord Campbell told the jury that it was not imputed to
the defendant that he had acted wantonly and maliciously. He
might be a very social gentleman, and he hoped he would
long continue to enjoy that character ; but the question was
whether what he had been in the habit of cluing was con-
sistent with the rights of his neighbour, Mr. Dodd. It was
for the jury to say whether the obstruction was such as
would materially interfere with the plaintiff's business.
The plaintiff did not ask for damages; and, if they found
their verdict for him, it would be with nominal damages.
The jury almost immediately found for the plaintiff—
damages 40s.

DZPOSI7I tPON RAILWAY SHARES.
The plaintiff in this action was a gentleman residing in ,
Cork-street, Burlington-gardens, and the defendant fur.
merly acted as one of the managing directors of the Dover
and Deal Railway Company. This scheme was established
in 180, and 100 shares were allotted to the plaintiff, upon
which he paid the sum of 2101. as deposits. fhe company
succeeded in pas►ing the standing orders, but they failed in
committee, and abaudoned their project ; and the present
action was therefore brought to recover the sum paid for
deposits upon the ground that there had been a total failure
of consideration.

Evidence of the usual kind was given alto the part taken
by Lord Landesborough in the affairs of the company, and
the allotment of sham to the plaintiff, and the payment of
the deposit by him. The present case differed from most of
its class in this, that a circular sent with the letter of allot-
ment contained this passage : "In the event of the act not
being obtained, the directors undertake to return the whole
of the dcposiu, without deduction." Proceedings have
been taken under the winding-up act, and U. per share had
been returned to 'Homes upon their executing the com-
pany's deed.
After the facts meowy to raise the questions of law had
been proved,
