Mr. Bicker-Cautoo, insfrnoted by Mr. T. J. Angell, for

master, oirryileg on badness at Gloomene-plece, New-
road. It would be remembered that, la the year 1868, the
King of Onde seat es embassy over to this country, conaim-
olf the Queen-matilsr, the Priam (defandant, sad heir
apparent to the crown of Oade), and • large snits of
attendants. They cams accompanied with all kinds of,
magnificent's. They bad • harms, an eunuch, mad the owl
voluptuous surrounding of an Pastern potentate. They
were most particular in their pomp, and of course
must have • state carriage. They even proposed to
the plaintiff to beg up the red carriages of the
Sheriffs of London. (Roars of laughter.) They would
have had so objection t the Lord Mayor's state car-
riage, and perhaps, if not too lets, they would have bought
the City state barge. (Laughter.) The plaintiff was unable
to execute this extraordinary oomusindoe, end as • visit was
about to be paid to her Most Oradea, MajeeM the Queen of
Great Britain. plaintiff was ordered to mieU a state penises
that should cost 2731. It was proceeded with, and before
being completed was sent to Harley-street for the criticism
of the defendant. Defendant saw It, end ordered the roof
to be made six inches higher. He was going to
pay • visit to her Majesty in great elate, and his
plumes and turban could not be removed. The Queen-
mother deo mine to me the carriage, and it was then taken
back. The defendant was to give the instructions requisite
in order that plaintiff might finish the coach.
These instructions sever came, and the comb was
thrown upon plaintiff hands, • useless piece of lumber. It
was a carriage suitable for an eastern potentate, but to no OM
else. No English gentleman would buy it; no person could
efffe in It without being a mark for every one, and Mr.
Bettye* was without any recompense for an outlay of 20W.

grey horses. Plaintiff purchased the lied pair he eouid find,
for which he paid 1601. When defendant broke his egrsemeat

Mt. Bicker-Csarten then called Mr. Ablewhite, who said
the oceeb wee valueless to the plaintiff. He could put no
prios upon it. He would not have it as • gift. Than woe
• peculiar formation In the roof which wee very uncommon
to English re:lieges. The colours were too gay for an Hag-
111th carriage, and though the lamps and mountings were of
solid silver, they were not of the kind that were used upon
the carriage of an English gentleman. The wheels and
springs were good, but even In the springs there was • peculiar
farm, very Illimitable for this country.
