This motion was tried before Lard Campbell and a special
at Guildhall, at teedaw Maw lam sera, and resulted
le • medial for the plaintiff with 3001. damages.
Mr. Bovill, in now moving as the pert of the defendant for
a ant trial, mid the action wee broaght by Mr. Vincent
floully, formerly M.P. for the meaty of Cork, spine Mr.
Herbert Ingram, M.P. for Borate, for hand in repremoting
himself as the owner cif the estate of Castle Hyde, situate in

ma himself of that circumstance.

Bovil.l2lt is digc-ult to amartaln, when the plaintiff
edam= way thouaand pounds, on what maciple they
tank' have arrived at a conclusion to give 3001.
Lord Campbell—They might_ ad" have doubted whether a
lager nun was lost by Mr. Scully.
r. Said—That may be so, but, looking to what did
omen there
visa probability that they gave what a called a
ornsprades ict.
Lord Campbell—From the evidence it is not probable that
arse the case.
Mr. Bovill—l do not see how the amount of 3001. ru be
salved at ; but if this were a mere quo Alan of that sum, or
erns of 30001., 1 don't think your lortiahlp would ever have
heard of the case again.
Lord Campbell—lt le • cased infinite impatanos to the
Water.
Mr. Bovill—lt Is not a question of money at an, bet a
pestion of Mr. Ingram's position In moiety, his ehereoler,
tad reputation, and he now comes tame your lordship co I
sadaata, a well aa on facts which appeared at Ithe time, to
ash your lordships to let the cam undergo lathe' investiga-
tion. Mr. Ingram is a patlemen who in two parliaments
los represented his native town.
Lord Campbell—Ton may assume that he is a gentleman
of the highest respectability.
Mr. &rill—After the observation which your lordship
made the other day. Mr. Ingram wishes his character not
to rest on a simple presumption, and he has thought it right
to hting forward affidavits to prove that until this ease arose
no diarp of any sort or kind wet ever made egainat him.
Lord Campbeff —ls it legitimate to bring forward affidavits

MT—lkkl—But your lordship Intimated the other day
that thin wan circumstances introduced in exert:mina-

tiaa which Otededi.geffvet the character of Mr. Ingram.
Mr. BovUl then stated that the treasactions about which Mr.
I ariat wee oross-neateed beim an far back as 1852 and
1&53, hie memory wu not dear with regard to than, and
that not bleu a men of meek sell-poseemke ice become per-
pleated when documenta were closed is his baulk which he
hod suer eau before, and declined to piece hie emit la
esswer to the questions put to him. Rim mania led hesitat-
e( anewen, so doubt, raised a grave seeped= epee Mr.
legram which was wholly unfounded, and that hatmeesion
remaining still la the mind of the Lord Chief Joßke, It wry
desirable to remove it. Since the trial he bad snmised all
We private mere, and found several leen of &disk's, and
he wee now prepared to give a fall sad oomph**
of all his pecuniary neptlatioas with &diet; =t dtr
at
prove the charges made epithet him with record to his
being mixed op with him in bill aanesc The
teamed counsel then gave from the affidavits a de-
tailed narrative of Mr. Ingvanis consenion with Sadler,
in respect of other matters than thou upon which the pre-
. sent action had been brought, end mid there was not the
alighted ground for alerting that Mr. Isgram had bete
guilty of any irregularity or dishonourable conduct. At
that period John Salleir was a Iced of the Trourury, M.P.
for Sligo, a solicitor, and the bud el the firm of Sedate,
Ildnrrogh, and Remedy, of Dublin, end Ashman of the
Ludas and County Bask. He was a man high in position,
and high In favour, and of the same political principles u
Mr. Ingram.
Lord Campbell—He seems to have brought in Mr. Scully
twice for the county of Cork.
Mr. Hoe:ll—Yogi he upwind to pull the strings in a
= op
....,m He was, in fact, a man of the highest
character, and teputetion.
Lord doolliorerfillr—l suppose he wee so considered, not only
by his own pug, hat by the country at tarp.
Mr. Boa said that Mr. Ingram was most maxima to get
a mu of seek importance to become • dircator of the Boothe
Railway, sad explained the circumstances under which the
latter joined the direction of that undertaking. Re (Mr.
Buell) entered into these statements to show that Ye. Ingram
was a gentleman of uninipeached character and standing,
and of the highest position until the matter In gladioli
aroma, upon which also he declared he was entirely innoesat.
Mr. Justice Crompton—it may be convenient for you to
stets now on what grounds you move.
Mr. Bov3l said he moved first oa the ground of misdirec-
tion, the Mead jwige having hid the jury that if they be-
lieved the representation was made and was fakes, sad was
made malictottely, the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict, mad
that they would then consider the ameent ef damages,
whereas he (the learned counsel) contended that damps
were esetedal to the maintenance of the seen, end that the
plaintiff was bound t i make out the damsel be had anetained
Were he could get a verdict. Next, he mid there wee no
evidence of any damage naturally resulting to the plaintiff
from the alleged misrepreeentation, sad that such damage
was =Nutlet to the maintenance of the action, and that the
jay should have been so directed. Thirdly, he said it was
ascertain under which head. left to the jury, they had given
damages, that damages were not recoverable under either
bead, or at all events under one, and consequently that the
verdict meld not stand.

.LordessopVell—Thrse was strong evident* to show that
the estate was worth a great deal more than Scully had agreed
to day f x IL
Mr. Bovill—But there was also strop. ev:dence to show
that ha mold sever have parchimed it. He said distiectly he
W sot ramify to boy ft unlade &dial, paid bite the 9.0001. ;
but he saver did pay It, and there was so probability that be
war would, casempently, there was no probability that Mr.
anny could have made any peodt upon the estate. Mr.
Brea then said be also moved on the ground of =rosin, end
on farts brought before their lordship on affidavit., end which
bad bees discoverrd mace the trials, and repeated his anxiety
to mom the 'mar...ion on the mind of the Lord Chief
hedge again'. Mr. Ingram, in reference to his cross-

Mr. Janice Crompton paid he did Dot suppose that there
Ilkythiog disreputable proved against Mr. Ingram's
etuneter before Mu transaction.

Mr. Bovlll said if h« might take that as the opinion of
their itedships be would be landed.
Led Campbell sold be might do so.
Kr. Born then said that In Denetaber, 1861, Jobs Ba-
ker, by the direction of Mr. Sealy, bid for the Cast Lel=
meals la the Encumbered Estates Cert. It er
dews tr him in two lots for 19,6001. Kr. Seel=
dwelt of 2.0001., but instead of be or %Kele berg
the purehror, they pee the name of Mr. Eyre, Mr. Scully's
user, that of the person for whom it was purchased.
Lard Campbell—Tbe reason Mr. liadleir gave for that tow
that If It were re-sold by an Irishman It would not Melt so
good spree in the market so if sold by an English purchaser.
Mr. Brill said Mr. Scully represented at the teal that
be bed so rah to re-ssll the estate if Saarr paid him the
9,0001., which, together with the 11,0001. ready mosey whkh
he had in his pore don, would enable him to pay for it.
It also append that not having stroreedsd In getting the
9,0001., be pre authority to &Err to re-sell the arm
In Fetevary, 1862, &Mete reforested to him that be bed
neat It to Mr. bream, at a poet of 6001., yet it was peeved
shoe it July, 1862, the arks woe conveyed by the LAMM

heed Estate* Court, with the consent of Mr. Scully. to
Edward Murrogb, his cousin. Up to this time Mr. Ingram
bad nothing whatever to do with the estate. It wan in
August or September, 1852, that Sadleir first spoke to kits
about Castle Hyde. &Mime said it would just snit him, and
that he must have it, and he gave him the option of refusing
it at 20,0001. or 22,0001. Mr. Ingram was not able to go over
and see the property until May, 1863, but he then inspected
it in company with Mr. Powell, the surveyor for the Board
of Trade, and upon the report of that gentleman he declined
to become the purchaser. Mr. Bovill then shaded
to the Interview which Mr. Scully had with Mr.
Ingram at his country residence et Lindwatee,
Hertfordehire, in February, 1852, when It wee
alleged that Mr. Ingram represented to him that he had pur-
chased the estate, and when a memorandum was drawn out
by Mr. Scully of the terms on which hs would egros to buy
It back, and left with Hr. Ingram, who atteewsrds sent it to
Sadleir. Even supposing the amount given by Yr. Scully
of the interview was correct—and Mr. hien directly coo-
indicted it—Mr. Ingram was in some star sagged to me-
one himself the purchaser of the mate. What fraudulent
=rtation w there in holding himself out es the owner
e ss
had the option of baying It P From the beginning
to the end he believed he had the power or right of buying
Castle Hyde, and he never gave it up until after be had re-
tuned ham Ireland. Ha believed he had the power of
Ltrthe estate for 22,0001., as Andy as if a contract to
had been lager, end to now that be bad ao
fraudulent intention, they hadinsti to recollect that when
Mr. Scully offered 26,0001. realisingthe profit
which he could have get biaccepting that proposal, he gave
up the right he powered, and !abandoned all Wee of re-
&nag the property. He (the learned counsel) therefore
complained of the summing up in this nopect—that the
learned judge, became the conesy for the danger ender
there was no contract or conveyance sonny signed, treated
the statement of Mr. Ingram as • neesserny Wherepreen
logos. The two representations which era given in evidence

were quite ea consiitent with Mr. Ingram i ss Mr. BaoWs
evidence, and Mr. Ingrem's conduce was perfectly bag Us
hum first to lest. But in May, 1863, Mr. Invent debermhsed
not to buy the estate, and he told Whir so, and from that
time he never bad anything to do with it in say shape or way
anal alter the death of Bedleir in 1866. Now the question
wee, whether Mr. Scully waa not, after May 1863, aware of
the real state of the owe, or whether he amid on the notion
that Mr. Ingram was still the owner of the estate. If his
Mary were true, that he believed Mr. Ingram to be the owner,
they every soul connected with him (Yr. Scully) in thaw;
treassetiona, and all his relations, had bass guilty of the
mod scandalous fraud upon him. lilted bun found that one
of the papers produced by the plaintiff et the trial, but which
the defendant's couneel hed no opportunity of email:ling at
the time, contained an extract, dated June, 1863 (the very
month after Mr. Ingram declined to have anything more to
do with the estate), taken from the book. of Messrs. &their,
Marrogh, and Kennedy, the radices of John Sadie& and of
Mr. Bonny, to the following effect ,

Row is it possible (continued the learned counsel), in the
taco of that entry, to believe that these transactions were not
known to Mr. Scully—that he did not know that Mr. Ingram
bad owed to have anything to do with the mete? Can
your lordships believe that Edward Murrogh, the cousin of
Mr. Scully, and his trustee in respect of this reoperty, would
convey it sway for 25,0001. without even alidng him a word
about it f
Mr. Justice Crompton—l think you also read an entry to
the effect that they attended Mr. Scully in regard to the
trensaction.
Mr. Bovill—Yes.

Mr. Jostire Crompton—Then there le not tardy fl in-
fernos but a direct statement that he knew it.
Lord Campbell—That is, reasonable evidence that Mr.
fkally was consulted.
Mr. Justko Crompton—lt goes very materially to the
question whether Mr. Scully wee injured by the isles re-
presentation, and whether be acted upon It.
Mr. Bovill—l repeat, that it will be utterly Impossible for
Mr. Scully to maintain a verdict without convicting every
soul connected with hint, both in England and Ireland,
of a gross conspiracy and fraud against him. The homed
counsel then read • letter which wee written by John
&Moir to Mr. Dergan, dated 27th June, 1863, offering to sell
Castle Hyde to him for 27,5001., and stated that it contained
the words, .sa purebred by me from the court," in the
handwriting of Mr. Lenserd Murree', the partner of Sall*
and his cousin. mud the solicitor who prepared all the docu-
ments referred to in the entry already mentioned.
Mr. Justice Hill—How bit to be doubted that Mr. Scully
knew this, unless there was • fraud by Badleir to deceive
every one? (Laughter.)
W. Bovlli Yes, and he deceived my client as much as

any one.
Mr. Justice Crompton—On all these entries B Klaus Mr.
Scully was aware of ell this, and you wish to have an op-
por.#y of examining him on that point P
Mr. Saadi—But this is not the only dletovery we have
made dace the trial, and we shell, I doubt not, discover morn
Lord Campbell (stopping the learned counsel) said—The
court thinks you ought to take a rule to show cause why the
verdict should not te set aside on these affidavits end on the
irtestion of damages, the jury not having distinguished
outer what heed they found deruages—end also on the gime-
don whether the evidence will support the action. We
think there has been no misdirection, and you will not take
a role as that ground.
Mr. Bovill—But I my take • rule on the ground that the
verdict is ntaMat the mimic* 1'
Mr. 7 Crompton—On all the points except misdirec-
tion. It is quite clear there wee no misdirection.
Mr. Sarni—Apia, I may este that all the parties con-
curred in the mortgages effected upon the erste in 1863, and
that the affidavits further show that Mr. Scully bctame woo-
rity fee Whir, and that he dined with him • few days be-
litre his death. _ .

Lad Campbell—lt is most materiel that a ems of such
=lthis should be sifted to the bottom.
M r vented eoossthagly.

►AYR f. WITIISRINOTON-TURF TRANSACTIONS.

This was en action beongbt by the platudff, • gentleman
well known on the "turf, to Weever stakes from the de-
bt:dant, which the plaintiff had won on • race at the races at
Catterick. The ow was tried before Mr. Justice Crompton,
sad resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff, with liberty to the
defendant to move to enter the verdict in hi. favour.
Mr. Knowles, In now moving, said the plaintiff was the
owner of • horse named Kelpie, and entered it to ran for
stakes sgsinst • horse named Palmier, which was nominally,
for the purposes of the action, the property of the defendant,
who was clerk of the course, and held the stakes. There
were three steward., to whoa decision all disputed questions
respecting the running were to be related, namely, the Earl
of Zetland, Captain Lawson, and Mr. Merry, and when the
nee was about to take place notk• was given that Kelpie was
• defaulter, and had not paid forfeit; sad Captain Lawson,
one of the steward., deckled that the defendant wee entitled
to the stakes. The race, however, was tsa, end Kelpie woo,
when Capt. Lawson decided formally habeas? of the defendant,
with an intimation that the matter would be rotated for the
, opinion of the other stewards. It was atbsequently referred
' to the Earl of Zetland and Mr. Merry, who necked against
Captain Lawson's judgment, bat in the absence of that
, gentleman. He (Mr. Knowles) was of opinion that the de-
Mama wee void, inasmuch ea It was not the joint decision of
the three starado, who wore to the character of arbitrators,
and as such were bound to or K together end give their de-
ckle° when so met. He submitted, therefore, that he was
entitled to • rule.
Lord Campbell ws. of opinion that stewards at races were
judges of a peculiar description, who were not called upon by
the common law to meet together, as arbitrators were, in
order to give binding torte • t their dcokion, but whose de-
e:Lion might be taken separately, that of file majority being
final. That was the opinion of the Lord Chief Baron in •
recent and somewhat similar case in the Court of Exchequer,
and to that decision of a 00-ordinate court this court was
prepared to adhere. The rule must therefore be refused.
The ether jadgee concurred.
Rule Woad acaordingly.

THE POLICE COURTS.

MANSION-HOUSE.,

JAN &ergo rood, a farmer, living at Moulton, in Nor-
folk, who was brought before the Lord Mayor on Thursday,
charged with being toned in Bieborgate-Meet, in ressesion
of • carpet bag containing:apparel, suppoeed to be stolen,
and Margaret Beek, who yea charged with being in his oom-
psny, in the drre of a sailor, were again placed at the bar.
The circumstances that led to the apprehension of the
prisoners were these—While Russell, the detective officer,
and W. Smith, another constable, wars proceeding along
Bishopegate-street on Wednesday last, they received
intor-
matinn that Beck, who was dressed as a sailor, and who had
just left a bootmsker's shop at which she had purchased a
pair of boots, wse a female. As she and Wood were about to
enter • oab, the officers embed them what was the meaning of
Beck's being in the dress of • man, and their reply not being
satisfactory, they were taken to the stadon-hour. Beek
them stated that up to within 'few days previotydy she had
lived as server t to Wood, who had a wife and three
elditiren at Moaltoa, sad that else had eloped with him
from that place with the lateatica of accompanying
hdse to Australis; 441. In notes and gold were
Mel upon Wood, as well r • game artidatte,
and • dormer showing that be lad beta la nagotiatice for
the passage of two parsons to Amtrak. The Lard Mayer
tam nammied the Woomera, in order that the allows might
:Irrto ositea, end amertais whether say charge

onbstastisted &Anhui them. The meta of the tele-
graphic communication was, that yesterday Wood's wife, a
pretty little woman, and the father-la-law of Bak, append

The Lard Mayor—ls there any farther widows in thfi

-pi It

ease, Rafael!, or is there any charge spinet either of the
prisoners f
Rnmall—No, my lord. Wood's wife is here, se well as the
girl's fathar.in-law.
The Lord Mayor—Deliver the girl up to her father-in-law,
sad let me tali her that if she again suffers hang, to be
seduced by the penmariona of any mason to puma so foolish
and wicked a course as that upon which ohs has foot
entered, it will inevitably lead to her min, both here and
hereafter. She is discharged, and may be given up to her
father-10w. _ _

Rumell—tino 4 only 16 years 0 ego, my lord, end not 19,
Y ths prated 0 the cation-DOOM.

The Lard Mayor—So much the more foolish of her, and
so much more wicked the conduct of the man who seduced
her. However, deliver her up to her father-in-law, and he
will Mks charge of her.
She then lett the dock.
The Lord Mayor (To the male prisoner)—l hardly know
in what terms I can charasteree your conduct. You have
left your wife and children without any mama of rapport,
with an 'mention on your farm, end you have run away
and seduced an innocent young girl to follow an evil and •
wicked coarse. You are discharged. Mr. Russell, give him up
Itie money (421.) and take a receipt for it. I suppose he will
pay the expenses to which his wile and the girl's father-in-
low have been pat, as well as that of telegesphiag.
Rumell—His wife will pay the expense of telegraphing if
he does not. She says she had to borrow the money to bring
her up here.
The Lord Mayor—She will be present when the money is
given up. Take all the pa lite into the next room.
The partied then retired to • room adjoining the court, and
Beck was given up to her father-in-law, who is a labouring
ems. The officers endeavoured to persuade Wood to go
book with hie wife, a step which ha, however, appeared by no
MOM willing to take, although he readily ianded her 201.
of the money restored to him by direction of the Lord
Mayer.
CLEREEN WELL.
Nary dace Hodge, a respectably-attired and decent-look-
ing girl, aged sixteen, described as a servant out of pima,
with no home, was charged with wandering about, and
having no visible means of subsistemos.
Folios-constable Whiteley, 239 8, stated that late last
night he was on duty in Oakley-square, St. Pancras, when
he found the defendant sitting on a door-otep crying. It.
asked her if she had any hams, and being replied to in the
=the said, " Why not go to the workhouse I" and
ermed that she tad been them and refused shatt-
ers, be went with her himself, and An was then refined
admission. Finding that she was refused a second time, ha
took her to the police station, and was again sent with a ser-
geant and the defendant to the St. Prima workhouse, when
the girl was agate refused admission, and they were told
that the =Mew acid she belated to Clorkanwell, and for that
mason was not taken in. It was then about half-past one in
the eneraing.
The poor girl said that she had been out of • !attrition for
sons lime, sad where she had been lodging some sheets were
mimed, @adobe was locked up. She was remanded for • week,
and was then discharged, and having no home went to the St.
Pancras workhouse and was refused admission.
The Master attended in the course of the day, and said
that the reason why he did not give orders for the girl's
adinisaket was because he was not told that she was " desti-
tute," only that she wanted a night's lodging.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—You do not mean to say that when a per-
ms la brought by the police, found in the public streets
without • home, you vetoes admission because they belong
to a neighbouring parish ?
Ths Master—Well no • ft depends.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—BManae: the wood "destitution" had not
been used, admission was refused tog poor—
The Kmiec was about to make some remarks, when be was
told to sit down, when
Mr. Tyrerhiasaid he looked with real sorrow and annoy-
ance on this cam, and was surprised at the way in which the
meeter of the workhouse smart to treat it. He could not
help remarking that the muter, of workhouses read poor law
repeats and regulations until they thought of nothing elm
and their hearts grew harder. This was never intended hy
the authorities at the Poor-law Baud. What was this girl
refused admission :only Worm she did not make use of
the word " destitute." If abet had been taken in and re-
lieved with her four ounces of breed, the master could the
weaning have made her work for It. He (Mr. Trywhltt)
must apnea In the strongest teems the hedignation he felt at
ths neglect and indifference which was shown to the most
helpless of the population. The parish authorities of St.
Pewee might appeal to the papers and to the Poor-law, but
the girl should have been admitted, and he should have been
saved the pain of bearing snob • case as that before him.
He amid not undesmnd how a man oonld bring himself to
be so hard hearted and so indifferent. Are the rats; raised
to be spent for the pleasure of those who St In judgment over
the poor, or for the relief of the distressed ? It was a sod
mere, and in every way in which., it could be looked at. Mr.
Tyrwhitt then directed that the unfortunate girl should be
taken by the master to St. Pancras Workhouse and treated
kindly, and if Clerkenwell was the proper pariah that she
might be passed in the legal way.
