INO Till MANACHIMISNT OF A CHARITY.

Mr. Rolt sod Mr. Campbell appeared in support of a
petition for the cintirma•ion of a scheme for the manage-
ment of a charity i 1 Monmouth, founded by Edward Lewis,
of Kilbach, io 1713. The scheme had been appr red of by
Sir Thomas Phillips, and all the other persons who were
appointed trucees of the charity, and it was hoped that the
order would be made without a reference to the Master.
Mr. Wray, who appeared for the Attorney-General, said
it was highly desirable, considering the smell funds of the
charity, that the scheme should be stilled without a re-
Lorene*.
The Vice Chancellor made the order accordingly.

THORNILOE V. li CORES -RAT CASE.-A SPORTING

JURY.
This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a leather-
seller, residing in Rich-street, Poplar, against Wm. Hugbci,
the defendant, to recover the sum of W. under the following
circumstances :—Mr. Atkinson and Mr. Charles Pollock ap
peared fur the plaintiff'; and the defendant, who was a pub-
lican, and lived at Bermondsey, was defended by Mr.
Robinson.

It appeared that a match was made between the plaintiff
and a person named E ding for two we 11-known fighting dogs
to kill 24 rats, and the animal whichaccomplished the task in
the shorter space of time was t) be the winner. The match
was for 3/. a aide, and came off at the SpJrtsman public-house,
Bermondsey, on the 28th alt. Tte dog laden givg to the
plaintiff killed the rats in 3 mi.intes and 29 acconds, whilst
4 minutes and 36 seconds were occupied by the other dog.
At the end of the match, however, Mr. Ingall, a friend of
Ealing, decided that the match was an unfair one. This
gave pee to a strong dispute, and the money was retained by
the defendant, who was atakeholder. A great deal of evi-
dence was taken on both aides, and

Mr. Baling said that he was.pretent on the occasion, and
saw the matc►—in fact, he attend' dto second his dog. The
rats that witness's dog killed were very much 1-rger than the
others were. (Laughter.)
Mr. Robinson—How was that?

Witness —Large ones suit my old gentleman best. (Loud
laughter.) Atter the match was over I picked up some of
the rate, and discovered that their backs were broken.
Counsel having oltunented on the evidence, and his
honour having summed up and stated his opinion to be
strongly in favour of the defendant's right to a verdict,
The fury consulted together for upwards of halt an hour,
and being unable to come to a conclusion they agreed to
cast :as, which they did, and then returned a verdict for the
plaintiff.
Mr. Reibinann then moved for a rule nisi to enter against
an act 8 & 9 Viet., c. 101, 818, as a bar is the present state of
the record, or for a new trial on the ground of the verdict
being against evidence, and that the jury had come to a de.
Marisa ►y an irregular Frusets. Rale granted.

NORFOLK CIRCUIT.-AYLESBURY, JULY 13.

MUTH OY MIL JUSTICE COLTMAN.

The lamented death of Mr. Justice Coltnisn, who was
expected to take hi. seat on the bench to day, in conjunction
with Chiel Justice Wdde, has deeply affected the profession,
arse given rise to not a little inconvenience. 'the commis-
sion was not opened until late on Thursday afternoon, and
this morning business was done only in one court, which
continued sitting whte this despatch was made up.
Chief Justice Wilde, at the end of his address to the
grand jury, said with evident eviction, in reference to the
eieeease of his colleague, " I cannot conclude without ex-
pressing the real grief of my heart in this day discharging
the duties which lie before me, when I remember the cm,
and anxiety, and judgment with which my brother Colt-
man would have fulfilled her Majesty's commission in
this county, and with so much honour to you and credit to
the bench. His lordship then dismissed the grand jury, who,
as well .s all the people in the court, were much affected by
the feeling tone in which these latter observations were de-
livered.
THE BUCKINGHAMSHIRE BURGLARIES,
Br. Green, Meppard, IV. Zheppard, and IV. 'Varner,
were °herded with perpetrating a series of burglaries o: the
most determined character, and which recently terrified the
whole neighbourhood, and induced the farmers to associate
together fur their own protection. On being pieced at the
bar, the prisoners display, d a very wild and wretched ap-
pavanes, and without any hesitation pleaded guilty to every
charge brought against them. They attacked the farm-
houses in the county, well armed, in the true Jack Sheppard
style, and pillages them of very valuable property, displaying
a remarkable gallantry to the fair as x in all their proc,edings.
The disclosures were looked to with cousiderthlo interest,
but the plea of guilty from them all put an extinguisher
upon it.
The Chief Justice deferred sentence.

TIM SHEFFIELD GIUNDERS' UNION.

Yesterday we announced that in the case of Bane and
others (the offic.n of the Sheffi Id Grinders' Union) judg-
ment had been given on the demurrer agars% the defend-
ants. At a later period of the day they were again placed at
the bar, when
Mr. Se rjeant Wilkins, for the prosecution, stated, in con-
sideration of the long imprisonment which the prisoners had
undergone, and the anxiety of mind and expense to which
they had been subject, it w►s not the intention of the prose-
cution to rress the cue further against them. It had been
arranged that the judgment on the demurer should stand
against the m, and that they should enter into their own re-
eognisances of 1001. each to appear and r..ceive 'enigma when
aided upon, and then be discharged.
Mr. J owice Wight man assented to the arrangement and
said the prisoners must clearly understand that the prosecu-
tion have agreed to adopt this course solely on the grounds
stated by the learned course'. Tao judgment would be elk-
pended, and it would depend on their future conduct whether
or not they were further punished, as they were still amen-
able to the taw.

The real/mixing's were then entered into and the pri-
iwr.n itisthersed.
