The plaintiff le • tavern keeper nth livery stables at
Stockwell, sad the defendant is a cebwither from the vicinity
of Rastan-equen. In the math of April lest the plaintiff
contracted with the defendant to make him three cab-, that is
two kimono's sad a Clarence, at 401. a piece, or 1201. for the
three, the plaintiff, however, supplying the wheels. The
cab wen to be mat horn by the 30th of May, the en of the
Darby day, or otherwise the defendant was liable to a penalty
cri 101. liononr, the cabs were to be in all respects
Irst-rede; the Maki of the canine end the listing
wire to he of the beet quallty, sad the ghee to be
but not law then a gunner of as ineb
thich.Vhplseatilf had &dreamed a sera of about 901. to the
disdain on account of the price of the albs, the &Wan
egvniag in return to knock of 101. from the price 'greed
ee
phdatiff 's complaint area let, that the cabs were not
deliewed to him by the 110th of May and secondly, that they
nee sat of the quality contracted hr. The cashicals won
only tryended with hair, and that at an %fern &scrip-
doe ; the ewe wag leas than a cleaner du tare thick, sad
the mania on the cabs very eon got dull.
The defence was that the defendant had not sent home the
cabs by the 30th of May because the plaintiff had not de-
livered to him the wheels in time. And next he dined that
the cabs won of an inferior deeoripticm, or that any of the
Sinop were not of the quality contracted for.
While the plaintiff's one wee Deng proceeded with a
r'fort was made to settle mitten, the defendant
to leave it to mime respectable tradesman to decide
the cabs wen nob as the plaintiff affirmed, and in
the event of the &Aka being against him to make good all
defloisselee, each party paying him own wets. The plaintiff,
however, stood out on the question of cosh, aad so the nee
was bin out, the resalt being that,
The 157 hued for the deindant.
Mr. Mawldnn. Q.C., and Mr. Robinson appeared for the
*Jeff; Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., and Mr. Garth for the
defendant.

Oross-eneanatics continued—For thirty years prior to
1852 toe house of Dobkin was Dim., Alkm, sad Co. Is
1847 it was the house of Joseph Allen, sod then it wee
Allen and Oribian until 1862, whim Alin died. The wine
imported from that hoses was alweys of host-rate quality.
The house had their stores et Villaaeva, opposite Oporto.
In 1862 the Sarcasm Regale ,en aunt or Joe* Ake,
sad • widow of a former partner, pmt en embargo as the
"dam in those stores to prevent Goblin dealing with them.
He °pewit another store, sad his first purehase wee of 600

Alva. Speculators who dealt in wines in Portugal were sot
speculators's the term ins understood in this country. ticme
of the speculators are large capitalists, and deal in the Bust
wises of the Douro, supplying the ships. Others dealt In
inferior wines. He did not think that the what exported
from them were iallsrlor to that exported from the old houses
Mein or twenty years ago. In Much, 1866, fishnet paid
eff the maims of the kormame. In 18U the grape disuse
flint strongly developed itself in the dislikes of
the Douro, Oct them were irons two yeas barn
It produced serious Amite on the lower diem of

tariarentd, and awe was a resides' Gibed wise la the mar-
ket at prima. He thought it would be an oneemive

Mr. Baron Ifartfa—How is poet got reedy fir this
ocul,
Thear plaintiff—lt is put into pipes, sad @Air fibs remised
a certain time persons Wed it sad put it together, "ad it is
then sent here in classes of the same wine.

Vross-examination ccatinned—He should think that more
bad wine than good was at the protest time sold by the specu-
lators, and that sines 1863 the tar greater proportion of wines
Imported was mined. The wooer of vatting we to prevent
the wine turning soar, and was marled on to a great admit.
The proportion of spirits in wise some ten yaws ago arse one
gallon to 36 pipes, now the proportion we from Ito gal-
lon to one pipe. The Customs now allowed a much a4O
par cent. to fortify the wine in vatting.
Mr. Boron Maeda—Do you mean, Sir Filmy, that the
Customs allow forty per cent, of brandy to be mixed with
the wine P

14 F. kelly—Forty per cent. of @pinta, my lord—brad,is too goo& tLarighter.)
Cross-examination oontinned—The 15 pipes shipped for
Kr. Henley, and which were bad, were subject to arbitra-
tion between him and the dock company, bat sot with wit-
nerds canourreace. The sward was made in October, 1866,
and that was with regard to the wine on which witness aow
claimed 3761... . . .

SiTCliSlly—And that award was in favour of Um
comp ay
Wttnsse—l beams It was. Mr. Wilde was the arbitrator
on the part of the company, Mr. Take for Mr. Healey, sad
Mr. Cornell waa called in as umpire.
Mr. Phipson said that as Sir P. Kelly had stated that the
award was in favour of the company, be would wish it to be
road.

The document ma then reed as follows :
" Mark-bum Oct. 22, 1866.
" I end that the majority of the wines are um:apace-
able, but with • tendency to acidity more or le« developed
in every pipe. Tbat the serious ,Irsoiadus in the value
of several pipes may have pr ome from natural amuse
and there is net suut evidence to substantiate a c.lei«
against the dock oorapany. But se well known circum-
stances justify suepleloa, and as there 4 the additional fact
that the pipe had • deficiency of eiz gallons without
perceptible causes, the London Dock Company are to pay to
each of the arbitrators—that is, Mr. Wilde, Mc. Take, and
Mr. Commil—the um of 101.10e.—(great lughter)—farther,
that the London Dock Company are to remit 18 weeks' rent,
and testing charges." (Laughter.)

Mr. Phrpeon—This I. the ;mini my learned friend oafisht
favour of the company. (Laughter.)
Mt. Bane Martin—lt is rather swam proof that written
documents ought to be put n. Tide is certainly as Wm-
ordinary award. (Laughter.)
Cross-examination continued—The wholeof the wine en-
objected to had been disposed of within two or three yarn
altar they had been docked. He had been invited by the dock
°moony to taste all the wines in 1864.
. David Hart, Use senior partner of the firm at Leman
Hart end Co., of Trish...quer*, proved that oat of. quan-
tity of 22 pima of wines which he had purchased from the
plaintiff in May, 1863, be had been compelled to titan
three pipes as unsound and sour, but the others wen all

Sir F. Led NM It was geoid inatwfal, sad

The whew tits stated that he had loggia Me. Morgan
not to go to law, pointing out the dlflosWes witch he would
have to satioanter, bat Mr. Morgan said his honour was In-
volved, end be had gone too far to nada. Hs bad had no
conversation with Mr. Morgan beyond advising Min se a
friend sot to proceed on account of the difficulties with
which he would have to contend.

Kr. Pliipsoa-1 thick as tepid' the difficulties you gave

Mr. Bares Martin her waisted that this would be a

84r F. Hdlg said he should be happy to mgrs to in arbi-
trates, bat he felt that there was this difilmalty, that Mr.
Jima fa his opening bad attributed grows negligee= and
mistiondnet to the company.
The Jury said they did not understand that Kr. James had
cut any imputation on the dock company.

Bir F. Kelly said be was ninth obliged to the jury for this
expremion of their opinion, and on tbat he would at ones
monde to the suggestion of the learns! judge far an
arbitration.

Mr. Fh7peo n (having consulted with the plaintiff) mid that
personally he felt that this came might properly be referred
but the plaintiff, who had been at great expiate w bringing
over the wanness from Portugal, desired that the can
should proceed.
The nee was then proceeded with by the reading of the
evidence of one of the plaintiff's witnesses taken by commis-
nion in Portugal.
Mr. Charles Lewitt Gansu, of the firm of Outdoes sad Co.,
of Oporto, wee sat Wkd. Be deposed that after the death
of Mr. Joseph Allen, one of the members of the arm, by
drowning, his awn, the Bayonne Begaliens, who had ad-
vanced Mr. Allen money, pot an embargo on the wines, but
It wee paid off by wanner& father, who died the 10th No-
vember, 1808. Witmer had joined his father in 1864. The
stook of Allen, Dobbin, end Co., of which his father bad
taken poneseion was good old wines, and also vintage wines.
His Whirr had purchased from the Visooast de Cannella;
600 pipes of the bees whin, of the vintages from 1830 to 1861,
which were naffed to Zegiund in 1363. They had no., to
his recolledion, elitimod say wines to England, except to
Morgan and Co. In 1864 they began to export from the old
stook of Allen, Outten, and Co. In 1853 they began to pur-
chase from the dealers--the Portuguese same for which was
" Lyricalness." Be bought wines Pam them on his own
judgment, and the very beet that wee produced
is the Douro could be bought from these deans.
The vintage of 1861 wee very floe. Then of 1858 and 1867
were the most affected by thedlesees. The object of putting
brandy in wine wee to fortify it. Brandy mode the wine
better, end made it keep better. What he called good treat-
ment in the atone wee to put brandy in the wine when re-
quired, and rack off the lees when requited. The richer the
wine wee the more brandy it required.
Cron-examined—There was a large amount of deteriora-
tion in wines in consequence of the dinime. Be bad heard
that there wee more reulteration than before, but he did not
know it of his own knowledge.
It being now 20 minutes past five, the further hearing of
the can wee adjourned until this morning.

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
Fem. 16.
(Saxe the Jodie Ordiesry.)

This was • beleasientary wit arising! out of the numerous
wills and codicils of Mr. Janes Stanford Caldwell, late of
Lindley Wool, is the perish of Aortal, Staffordshire. The
deceased, who bad been a barrister an the Oxford circuit,
wee the ace of a gentleman of considerable property ; and on
the death of hie father he retired from practice. He died on
the 17th of November, 1858, leaving between 14,0001. and
15,000. la persooelq, end estates principelly in Cheshire,
Staffordshire, and Dabyehiee, worth about 1,8001. a year.
He was • beehelor, but he left several next of kin. He had
bad three sista' ; of wham[wo, Anus !Slim, the wife of
Mr. Stanley Rowe, of Limped, sad Emily, the wife of Sir
Hairy Holland, were deceased; but they had both left bone.
His third sister was Mrs. three of whoa daughters.
Mite, Georgiaaa, end Eosmosd, were named executrixes.
The deceased, who wee stated to have been • men of very in-
temperate halite, lived on decent terms with the members of
his family ; and be appeared to have laid great stress upon
saating, se se far might be, the terpetual continuance of
Lindley Wood in the poieresion of peewee of his own blood
and name. With this view he had made en enormous num-
bar of wills; no fever than 26 executed testamentary papers
having bele found, I. sides • vast amount of unexecuted
drafts. In these instrumento ha stipulated that if any future
hek, even to the hundredth gaserstioa, should deaden or
refuse to take the wee d i'Caldwell," the pro-
perty should be forfeited. The papers before the evert
were many of them drawn by himself; but be had bees in the
baba of employing attorneys to peeper* wills end codicils for
him; and the will propounded br the executrixes, ausetly,
one dated the 19th of May, 1866, was mode up partly of
matter in his own handwriting, and partly of sheets selected
by him from drafts which had been mat his by Marfat
prolesidestal assiaatite. The executrixes also
two codicils, bearing date the 18th of June, 18rPrdasithe
29th of April, 1858. The last executed tastruneat la lead
of data was the codicil of the 29th of April, 1858, which ma
fated attached to • will of the let of Math. 186,1 end to
another codicil of the 31st of Janney, 1862. TIM maim
question Won the mart was, whether the_ pliyeioal sa-
ne:anon of the last codicil to the will ra 1861 bed see revived
that will. The case wee argued is the 18th site This
morning.
Sir C. Creswell gave judgensat; sad after a meal ea-
