Plee.C.ansellar Meant.
SIRPTON e.AneII2OII.—PLITIES.—The snit was inati-
tuted against trustees and executors of • will, !alleging
breaches of trust, by omitting to make repairs and to provide
• fund for the renewal of loves, as directed by the will.
The wi'ew of the testator (.1 ho was tenant for life under the
will) and two ahem, were the trustees. The widow married
again, and afterwards died, leaving her husband surviving.
and leaving wets of her separate estate. The bill was filed
against the surviving truatees, and against the husband, in
of the breathe of trust committed by
Lis
respect
during the coverture, and against • limited
administrator ad litem of the deceased widow, whose
separate estate it was sought to charge, in respect
of breaches of trust committed by her before her second
marriage. Mr. K. Parker and Mr. Hare for the plaintiffs,
Mr. Tinney and Mr. T. Parker, jun., for the surviving
trustees, and Mr. Hominy and Mr. Lansdale for the hus-
band, objected that the estate of the deceased widow was
not sufficiently represented by an administrator ad Mere,
and that, as the separate estate of the widow by whose de-
fault the breach of quit had been occasioned, was the pri-
mary fund to make good the loss, the persons to whom she
had appointed it by her will ought also to be made parties
to the record.—Mr. K. Parker was heard in reply.—His
Honour reserved his decision upon the objection.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
THE QUEEN IP. MCNTI AND OTHERS.—THE BROAD AND
NARROW GAVOB.—Io this ease, which has lately been be-
fore the Viee-Chaneellor of England and, on appeal from
that learned judge, before the Lord Chancellor, the question
of the broad and narrow gouge was presented to the court
in the form of is rule nisi for a writ of mandamus command-
ing a meeting to be held for the election of directory. The
Attorney General now appeared to show cause, and sug-
gested that the abolish:in would be best token on the return
to the writ. Mr. Cockburn, Q.C., who appeared in support
of the rule, was about to m ,ke some observations, but—
Mr. Justice Coleridge aril : He gives you your rule abso-
lute fur the present.
Lord Denman—The comma is a very proper one.—Rule
absolute.
RCBSELL P. EINITH.—RIORT TO SING THE "SHIP ON
FIRE" AT CROSBY HALL W/THOUT THE PERNISSION OF
THE AUTIFOR.-117 Watson, Q.C., moved for a rule to show
cause why the plaintiff's verdict in this case should not be
set aside, and a verdict entered for the defendant. The action
had been brought to recover penalties from the defendant for
having sung at a concert at Crosby Hall, in contravention
of the sth and 6th Viet., e. 45, a musical composition of the
plaintiff, called " The Ship on Fire." That statute ex-
tended to musical compositions the protection given by the
3rd and 4th Wm. IV., c. Id to dramatic compositions; the
two mutated must, for the purposes of this action, be treated
as incorporated ; and if so, then Crosby Hall ought, to sus-
tain the action, be a place of dramatic entertainment within
the meaning of the earlier statute. But the evidence showed
that it was a mere concert-room, in which, though recite-
Smut from dramatic poets might occasionally have been given
by single individuals without the aid of isetume or scenery,
the amusements were chiefly musical without dramatic
representation. That bide so, the defendant was en-
titled to a verdict. If he was not, the singers of musical
conspositieos in private houses would be liable to penalties if''
they neglected first to obtain the composer's license. A ae-
coed reason why the rule should be granted was, that
evidence had not been given to show that this particular
composition bad been registered. Lastly, it bad appeared in
evidence, that the plaintiff's copyright in the composition
had been assigned; the aseignment did not necessarily in-
clude the right te authorise the representation of the compo-
ritiOn within the meaning of the statute, but it ought to
have been produced, as it might have included it.
The court was of opinion that the first argument which the
learned counsel had pressed would, if successful, extend to
authorise the performance of enteritis at Exeter-hall, and
similar places, without the permission et the composer. It
would take time to consider whether the rule ought to be
granted.
Crsottmo 0. INCE AND ANOTHEIL—VALIDITY OP AN
AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BY AN ALLEGED LIGIATIC
FOR THE PURPOSI or STAYING A COMMISSION or LU-
NACY. Mr. Watson, Q. C., moved for a rule to show
cause why the plaintiff's verdict in this case should
not be set aside and • new trial had on the ground
of misdirection. It was an interpleuler issue to try
" whether the plaintiff ems entitled, notwithstanding
a wells arrangement entered into on the 22nd of
September led, le attain deed' and writings." The
arrengeeennt bed been adored into by the plaintiff in con-
sideration of the airy et a mesedesita of lunacy, of which
she was the object, aloe SORMIBEMOI with her counsel and
solicitor, and by their advice, gad aim with the approbation
of the Lord Chance r. It apposite& by the evidence that
the plaintiff had been lereinght day by day from • lama*
asylum, to the pass where ibe isqvity into her state doled
was held ; that the etssepasset woe peepeed on the 21st of
Soptezaber, way day she wr eallinit to go to the heave

taking of bee Mara to padre hrthe next day; and
that on the nest day He appeased, and entered into the

judge who tried the ors, taid tie Jury that the plaintiff bad
been, at the moment dentate, into the agreement, ineadene
platten *flaw, in the lunette asylum, and that if dished mode
the agreement under the duress of that confinement it was
void. He, the learned seumel, mbmitted that r the pleb-
tiff had ban In laurel motheenient, and had had the ewht-
ease mad sweat of esewaii the was bound by the

Mr. M. B. Bill, Q. C., moved yesterday for a rule calling
on the plaintiff to show cause why that verdict should not be
set aside, and a new trial had upon the grounds of misdirec-
tion, and that the damages were excessive. The learned
counsel, who was then prepared to make an unconditional
public apology, minutely detailed the facts proved,and stated
that the company had no hesitation st any time to express
their regret that the circumstance complained of had occur
red, but they could not be insincere and express regret for
having done that—namely, having made and carried oat a
ley...law—which they conceived they had a perfect right to
do. The defendants were very sorry that the plaintiff was
earned to any inconvenience, but they could not admit they
were wrong while they believed they 1•101 right.

sion of regret had been mode by the dailigneits since the

of making such bye.laws as that complained et, that they are
now considering the propriety of represtmilmg disk utility to

learned counsel was about to read an spoku, when,

objected to the defendants being then permitted to read, ea

declined to make, and which the plaintiff would not accept
now, as the verdict had been pronounced. Arta mach dui
mission the court granted a rule for a new trial only upon
the ground that the damages were excessive, and upon p
ment of costs, Mr. Baron Platt baying dissented 'from the
other members of the court, and stated that Its had heard no
reason whatever for granting it.

lion as to the sale of scrip, which proved to have been
issued without the sanction or knowledge of the directora of
the Kentish Coast Railway Company, has been already tried

was granted yesterday apes the ground of misdirection.

ADMIRALTY COURT.
MALAY PIRATRIA—BUENTY.—This was a claim preamted
by Captain Si, Edward Belcher and the officers and crew of
H.M.S. Semarang, for bounties upon the capture of pirates
under 6th Oeo. IV., chap. 49. The Semarang being engaged
in surveying the coast near Manon, the captain and some of
the crew lett her in a gig, accompanied by a barge with
twenty,officere and men, for the purpose of taking astrono-
mical observations. While off an island, forty natives threw
spears at the captain and crew, none of which, berme, took
effect. That party wes rapidly dispensed by a discharge of
musketry, but in the course of the day a number of boats
made their appearance with large crews of armed men,
and several conflicts took place beween them and
the English mews which terminated in the en-
tire destruction of the piratical boats and a great
many of their crew. Dr. Addams now applied on
behalf of the captain his officers, and the crew, far the
bounties provided by se's of parliameah—The Queen's Ad-
vocate made no opposition ; but, on the contrary, admitted
that it was • very meritorious service. The total number of
pirates, as near as could be estimated, was 1,330, of whom
360 were killed, 980 men being captured. The pirates bad
several alarm—The court decreed payment of the usual
sum in such cases, and which will be M. each for time cap-
tured, and 201. for such as were killed.
THE TIAITONIA.—SALYAGE.—This was a suit instituted
by 19 fishermen of Sherringham, to recover remuneration for

The chief judge held that the choke must be set aside, and
that there mast be a new choice. His honour said, in
Wing this order, he proceeded mainly, if not wholly, on
the following grounds:—that the Hat was sued out by the
bankrupt himself; that all the creditors who voted were
represented by the bankrupt's solicitor, who, in that cha-
racter, bad sued out the lilt; that, under the present law,
all the estate of the bankrupt vests in the official assignee
hoot the moment of the adjudication; and, lastly, that the
petitioner had been now admitted to prove every shilling
which he applied to prove at the meeting for the choice.

POLICE .—YESTERDAY. . _ESTERDAY.
MANSION-HOUSE.—Cif `rliCil-UATES.—Mr. BUrgOtS, of
36, Bucklersbnry, was summoned before the Lord Mayor
for having refused to pay the church-rate, amounting_ to
Si. 2s , due to the united parishes of St. Stephen's, Wel-
brook, and St. Benet Sherehog.—The Lord Mayor: Have
you got your summons, Mr. Burgon ?—Defendant : No, my
lord • I left it at home, between the leaves of my Bible.—
The 'Lord Mayor : You object to pay the rate I—Defendant :
I have conscientious objections to the rate. I consider that
I am conscientiously bound to refuse to pay it.—The Lord
Mayor : It is my duty, as a magistrate, to enforce the pay-
ment. ll= under a legal necessity to soa peremptorily
upon maidens of this kind : I have no alternative. My
duty is a mere matter of form, which I have no power to
alter.—Defendant: It is no matter of form for Me to part
with that for which I have laboured, for purposes which I
cannot recognise, and to which I am opposed 'rem principle.
—The Lord Mayor: You know well that you are legally
bound t 3 pay the church-rate. Where can he the good in
putting yourself to the imonveuience of refusing to do what,
you must be aware, you are compellable by law to do ? De.
fendant : Your lordship has mentioned the conscientious
reason I have for objecting to pay, for the law of the land has
nothing to do with conscience ; conscience has nothing to do
with • civil magistrate,—The Lord Mayor: I think quite other-
wise. I have this moment sentenced • man to imprisonment as
a rogue and vagabond for three months, and it was because
my conscience told me that the man was guilt that I passed
judgment upon him. The law of the land perfectly coincided
there. —Defendant : My conscientious objection is founded
upon the principle which I recognise, that the Church of Eng-
land is based in error. That church holds to baptismal re-
generation, which I consider to he altogether f 11,,,imil and
destitute of foundation in the Bible. There is no mention of
such a ding at all in Holy Writ as baptismal regeneration.
—The Lord Mayor: I am not bound, as a magistrate, to
enter into a discussion of this kind, and I shall not hear any
more upon such a point.—lt was then regularly proved that
Mr. Burgeon was chargeable with the rate to the amount
represented, and the Lord Mayor told him that if he ques-
tioned the validity of it, he must give notice to that effect to
the magistrate, and his appeal would go before an ecclesias-
tical tribtanal.—Defendant : I have already mentioned my
conscientious objection on the ground of the recognition of
baptismal regeneration by the Church of England. I have
another objection to gate. I have reason to believe that
there is • great endowment in our parish. I believe that
there is as much as 8001. •-year, which ought to be appro-
priated to the repairs of the church, to contribute to which I
have been summened ; and it is my opinion that if such ap-
propriation took place, tb ere would not be any necessity for
applying to me. —The Lord Mayor: That is a matter to
which my jurisdiction does rot, as you very well know, ex-
tend.—Defendant: My lord, my first objection, which origi-
nated in a conscientious scruple, you have set aside.—The Lord
Mayor: You may continue to entertain that objection, but
I am obliged to act as a civil magistrate on the occasion, or
I become liable to be served with a mandamus.—Defendant :
When I saw that my first position was likely to avail me
nothing, I thought it necessary to try another, and I men-
tioned the command of funds in the united parishes as a
rational excuse for refusing the application. I am not a 1
believer in geographical et in parochial Christianity, and I I
cannot see why the Church of Eugland should compel those
who do not subscribe to her doctrines to subscribe to her
support. I pay tithes in addition to the expense which
the imposition of this church-ate inflicts upon me by
the sale of my goods. Your lordship must see that
education, likewise, IN involved in this question.—The
Lord Mayor : Yes. I apprehend that you are one of those
who so strongly objected to the Ministerial plan of education ?
Defendant: Just so. I objected for the same reason that
the bishops objected to the Maynooth grant—that the plan
imposed upon others the hardship of paying for what they
did not approve. Now, independently of my objections in
point of conscience, I consider my claim of exemption upon
the argument of the pout/mien of fends in the united perishes
worthy of consideration, although I certainly prefer ping
upon the higher grounds. The sublect is easociated with
many other questions, but it is identified with the education
question. We bear people talk of the necessity of religious
education, but religion is not a thing which depends upon
education—it is dependent upon faith, which is not to be
taught. The Lori Mayor : It has been frequently observed
to those who object to the laws by which the country they
reside in is regulated, that they are at perfect liberty to remove
to some place better adapted to their taste. I admit that
you are perfectly justified in asserting your conscientious
scruples; but I am bound as a magistrate to enforce the
law at my own ppmml, and I cannot make your case en ex-
espekw— t : I have within the last 30 years been

him at the sessions; and for that purpose should adjudge I
him to enter into his awn recognisance in the sum of 2001. to
appear at this court on the Ist of Jane, the day subsequent
to the commencement of the next sessions at the Central
Criminal Court.
ALLZOID ATTIIIITT m NUILDITL.—John Morris, the
young man charged with firing a loaded pistol at Frances
Mary, his wife, with intent to murder her, was brought up
for re-examination on the charge. The inquiry had be
adjourned for the purpose of giving an opportunity for the
confirmation of the evidence of the complainant and Mrs.
Staples, who was in her company at the time of the alleged
attempt, but after diligent inquiries, no perms could be
found, amongst the residents in the confined neigh-
bourhood in which the oecurreive timk place, who had
e . ~;e.,•1 hand, • Mrs.
I hard the dischaiii u: -...-
Randle stated that she was present, and heard
Staples say to the complainant that if she (Mrs.
Morris) did not swear her life against her husband, neither
she (Mrs. S.) nor her father should ever speak to her.—Mrs.
Staples was interrogated by the magistrate on the matter
just mentioned, and she admitted that she did say something
tantamount to the words uttered, and also admitted that she
was anxious the prisoner should be either held to bail or sent
to geol.—Mr. Cottinghant expressed his doubts, under the
circumstances, that a pistol had been discharged. He, how-
-1 ever, should give the complainant an opportunity of taking
the case before a jury, if she pleased; and for that purpose
should adjudge the prisoner to enter into sureties to appear
at the next Newton to answer the charge.—Mr. Gardner, the
comp!ainant's father, having declared that he went in danger
of by life from the prisoner, be was sentenced to enter into
his own recognisance in 201., and find two securities of 101.
each, to keep the peace for twelee months.
LAMBElll.—Exrxestve Sul:runtime'. —M. Reville de
Mentarcir, a French gentleman connected with a foreign
journal published in London, appeared to receive the judg-
ment of the court on a charge of smuggling. On the day
mentioned in the information, Mews. Wrale and Jourdan,
officers of customs, in consequence of an intimation which
they received, were proceeding to the house of the defendant
in Lambeth-square, New-cut, when they met a person named
Blake carrying a bundle. His person having been well known
to the officers they took him into custody, and proceeded to
Surrey-squire, and soon after met the defendant car-
rying another bundle. The officers secured him also, and
took him back to his house, which they searched, and found
in it a quantity of lace and other articles of foreign manu-
facture on which duty had not been paid. The information,
however, wss only laid for the contents of the motels found
on the defendant, and which consisted of French manu-
factured ailk of the value of 231.—Mr. Elliott, in considera-
tion of the present being the defendant's first offence, miti-
gated the penalty to double the amount of the property:—
The defendant paid the fine. The customs, it was said, in-
tend proceeding at this court for penalties against the de-
fendant for the lace, and other articles of foreign manufacture
found at his house.

MONEY MARKET.
WEDNESDLY ETENIII O.
The funds continued their gradual carter of im-
provement to-day, although being the day before the settle-
ment the amount of business was far from considerable.
Consuls opened at 874 to 1 for money and tomorrow, ad-
vanced to 874 to 4. reached 874 to 4, but left off 871 to i for
money and to-morrow. For next account on the 16th of
July Consols were called 88 to 4. At option time, quarter
before three to-day, some large quantities were declared,
which would appear to have told against the " bears,"
or, as may be said, to establish this as a bear ac-
count. The continuation of 4 to next account may be
interpreted differently, as showing confidence in the opera-
tors for the rise, whilst, as ensuring an advantage to the
speculators for the fall of about 6 per cent. for the time, it
would superficially appear to be no less to the profit of the
speculators for the fall. In feet, however, it may be con-
strued rather in favour of the ries, under actual circum-
stances, for the sellers might have difficulty, if pushed, in
the delivery of stock, and it was worth while, therefore,
to avail themselves of the coatango offered by the buyers
for time, with whom it might not be quite convenient, in the
actual state of the money affairs, to take and pay for it.
Although the transactions of the day were few yet they
were far from unimportant. A leading broker flimbougt.t
so less than 300,0001. Consols for next account, whieh pro-
duced an effect upon the market, and confirmed the advance
in prices. Reduced Threes were 884 to 4. Three and-a-
Quarter per Cents. 871 to 8. Bank Stock, 189 to 191.
Long Annuities, 8 1516 to 9. India Bonds, 3a. discount to
2s. prem. Exchequer Bills, par to 2.. prem.
The dealings in foreign stocks were limited to small indi-
vidual amounts, -prices remaining scarcely affected. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were rather higher at 681 is 4 ;
the Fours, 884 to 9. Brazilian, 82 to 4. Buenos Ayres, 36
to 8. Mexican, 20 to 4. Spanish Fives, 22 to 4 ; the
Threes, 334 to 4 ; Deferred. 15 to 16 ; Passive, 44 to 5. Por-
tuguese, 33 to 4. Russian 5 per Cents., dividend due July
1, done at 104 ; called 103 to 5.
It will be seen that, upon balance, the stock market pre-
sented a more firm appearance, and the character of the
purchases noted for the forthcoming account, and of
the purchasers, can hardly fail of accrediting oldies
in that respect. Tet, until the event of the sodesspeer
bill account with the Treasury shall be known, osaliktele
the stability of prices will be wanting. There have hese
several interview. publicly recorded in the Court Circular,
and conferences privately held besides, therefore net recorded,
between the governor and other directors of the Bank, with
the Treasury, the special subject of which must have been in
relation with the exchequer bill affair, but as no action has
followed it would seem that a certain confidence is enter.
tained that all will be right in the main. It is of counts
known that all trust, railway, and other sedentary interests
will and must be stationary, therefore renewed ; but there is
nevertheless a mass beyond in the hands of bankers and
capitalists to be dealt with.
