ation was bled to carry into effect • bequest for charitable

By the will in question the testatrix had directed
her executors to pay to Meson. Drummond, I bankers
of Charing-arose, the clear yearly sum of 1001.
for "the rile use and benefit of .my of the ministers
members of the churches now forming upon the apastolical
doctrines brought forward originally by the late Edward
Irving, who may be persecuted, aggrieved, or in poverty for
preaching or upholding such doctrines; or that the same
might be appropriated for the benefit of the church founded
by the late Edward Irving in Newman-street."—The Soli-
ettor-theteral, Mr. K. Palmer,' moo Mr. Ilovill appeared fur
the different parties to the suit.—His Honour directed a
reference to the master to inquire and to state to the court
what were the doctrines referred to in the will of the tee
tatrix by the words " the apostolical doctrines brought for-
ward originally by Edward Irving;" and whether there was
any Person or clans of persons answering the description
contained in the will of the testatrix. An order had been
made on • previous occ.ision foe payment into court of a sum
sufficient to provide for the purposes of the bequest.

Locs tr. ARATON.—FALIIII IMPIIBOI4XZXT.—This will
an
action for assault and false imprisonment, to which the de-
fendant had pleaded not guilty. It appeared that the plain-
tiff was in the employment of the defendant, and, on the
occasion in question, had been sent with a cart to fet h lime
oats. On his return it was found that one of the sacks of
oate and an empty seek were mission, and the plaintiff, not
being able to give a satisfactory account of the article., was
given into evatody. lie then stated that he had 1• ft the
empty seek with the keeper of a toll bar, in lieu of payment,
but could not account for the full one. Upon being brought
before the police magistrate, he was twits remanded, and,
altogether, kept in custody about a week. It was, however,
discovered, at the end of that time, that the sack of corn had
not been given into the possession of the plaintiff, and that
the charge could not be support. d. Lord Denman, before
whom the caws was tried, directed the jury that the defen-
dant was answerable for the consequences of his wronglul act,
and they found for the plaintiff, damages 101. Mr.Whitehurst,
Q.C., subst quently obtained a rule for a new trial, on the
ground of misdiriction,contending that alter the plaintiff
had been brought before the magistrate, and the charge
heard, the defendant could no longer be held responsible for
his further imprisonment. Ile had repressed a wish that he
should be liberated, but the magistrate thought there was
sufficient evidence to justify the ulaintirs being remanded.
There was" rea.ooahlo nn t probable cause" to justify the
defendant in giving the plaintiff into custody, and an ab-
sence of all malice--Mr. Cliarneek now showed rinse
against the rule, contending that there had been no mis-
direction, the defendant being liable to pay damages to the
plaintiff for the entire term of imprisonment which he had
innocently saffeied.—Mr. Whitehurst supported the rule,
urging that the direction of the learned judge not only was
incorrect in point of law, but that it had, no doubt, had the
effect of considerably increasing the amount of the damages.
—The court took time to consider their judgment.

WELCH XAN O. STl.7llol*.—Mr. Pearson moved foe • rule
to show Cause why the sum of 1361. 24. 2d. should not be
paid out of court to one Sarah Whiting, upon the defendant
rendering himself to prison. From the statement of the
learned counsel, it appeared that the defendant was about to
be arrested on the 13th of August for 1361 2s. 2d., and
Sarah Whiting deposited the money, together with 101. for
costs, in order that the defendant should not be deprived of
his liberty. Sarah Whiting had made an affidavit, stating
that she held no security from the defendant. By the old
practice, if • certain time elapsed before ball was pot in,
mosey paid into court und such circumstances could not
be taken out of court ; but her a contended that the statute for
the abolition of meet for debt altered the case, and the
money might now be obtained.—The court granted the ap-
plication.

111.100111IIDO1 e. Bovros.—This was an action to recover
the sum of 361. 15s , being the value of 20 quarter' of beans
which the plaintiff alleged had been delivered at the defend.
ant's premises, at Brunswick-street, Blacklrlara-road. The
plaintiff was a corn factor, and the defendant bad formerly
been a mail cart contractor, but at present carried on the
business of an omnibus contra:dor. The only feature worthy
of notice in the case was the hard swearing of the witnesses
on both tides. The plaintiff's witnesses stated that they bad
deli al the beau in question at the defendant's premises,
on Wednewley, Oct. 1, 1545, while, on the ether side, the
defendant's witnesses swore that no beans had ever been de-
livered at all, and that the plaintiff's carman did not even
arrive at the defendant's until Thursday, Oct. 2, when he
was Informed that he could not shoot the beau into the
, as the for, man had gone to Croydon Fair, and
=II the loft; upon which the carman took them away.

HAMILTON V. COCIIIIIMM.—PATENT CASIL—This
the trial of which lasted several days last summer usises at
Guildford, when a verdict was substantially found for the
plaintiff, was an action for the Infringement of the plaintiff's
patent in certain improvements in machinery for sawing
timber in a curvilineal or winding line, with a 'Agin benind,
to be used chiefly in the building of ships. The defendant
had subsequently taken outnlcti.ent for a similar purpose,
and afterwards set up a in Woolwich Dockyard,
where it is now in efficient use, in undoubted conformity
with his own patent, and in alleged violation of
the plaintiff's. The more minute particulars of the
cue are not of a nature to be made intelligible
to our readers.—Mr. Montagu Chambers, Q.C. now moved,
on behalf of defendant, for a rule to set aside the end cf, and
for a new trial. The grounds of his motion were that the
plaintiff's invention was net new; that it was of no public
utility ; and thirdly, that defendant's invention was different
from p aintifts, and so was not an infringement. The learned
counsel's argument lamed all day, nor had A concluded at the
rising of the court at 6 o'clock.
Soon after two o'clock the proceedings of the court were
interrupted by the arrival of the new Lord Mayor in state.
After the usual forms, ensued an Invitation to the judges to
