LAW INTELLIGENCE.
(THIS DAY.)

JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY
COUNCIL.

(Before Lord Westbury, Sir J. Colville, Sir E. V.Williams,
and Sir L. PeeL)
THE CHURCH IN THE COLOMBIA—THE BET. ANDREW
MURRAY AND OTHERS V. THE REV. THOMAS FRANCOIS
BURGESS.

This was an appeal from the Supreme Court of the
Cape of Good Hope, and raised an important question as
to church discipline in the Dutch reformed church. The
appellant Mr. -Murray was the moderator of the synod,
and other members of the synodical commission, and the
respondent was the clergyman of the colony oeHanover.
sir Roundell Palmer, hfr. N. Campbell, of the Scotch
bar, and Mr. Wickens, were for the appellants; Mr. Cole-
ridge, Q.C., Mr. Ettjames Stephens, and Mr. Westlake
for the respondent.
The Synod of the Duteh Reformed church in Africa
had suspended the respondent for denying the existence of
the devil and the sinfulness of Christ's human nature.
He brought an action in the Supreme Court, and that
court decided last year that the sentence of the synodical
commission of da1y.18641, was null and void, and hence the
present appeal to the Moderator and the Synod, alleging
that the Supreme Court had no jurisdiction in a sentence
for a spiritual offence ; and that the decision of the
passed
Supreme Court was oontnuy to law, and erroneous. The
respondent, on the other nd, alleged that the words
attributed to him were not proved ; and farther, that the
synod which suspended him was not legally constituted.
The appeal was opened, and Is expected to'occupy their
lordships two or three days.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
Sittings in Banco.—(Before Justices Site and Lush.)
WOOL) AND ANOTEES (APPELLANTS) S. BOWLS'S
(RESPONDENT).
This was a very important case under the Master and
Servants Act. The appellants are the president and
secretary of the United Order of Bricklayers' So-
ciety, and the respondent is a builder at
Stockton, and the appellants had been convicted
by the justices of having used threats to pre-
vent the respondent's men from continuing the work for
him unless be limited the number of his apprentices from
four to two, and not to take another apprentice until the
eldest apprentice of the two was in the last year of his
time—the question was whether what the appellants had
done was a threat within the meaning of the statute.
Mr. Mar'sty, Q.C., and Mr. Pinder appeared for the re-
spondent, and argued in favour of the conviction.
Mr. Coleridge and Mr. Marnamara appeared on the other
ride ; but before the learned counsel had concluded their
arguments, Mr. Justice She, observed that it was too im-
portant a case to be decided by only two judges, and it was
suggested that as the Lord Chief Justice and Mr. Justice
Mellor had disposed of the business in the Criminal Court
of Appeal, It would be desirable to have the case argued
before them.

It being inconvenient to the learned counsel then to do
so, the case was postponed until next week.

BAIL COURT.

Sittings at Nisi Prins at Westminster.—(Before Mr. Justice
Blackburn and Common Juries.)

His lordship sat this morning and disposed of his list at
a veil early hour. Most of the cues were struck out, and
those taied presented no particular feature of interest.

THE POLICE COURTS.
(THIS DAY.)

MANSION-HOUSE.

The Lord Mayor came into the court for a short time
this morning, and addressing the clerks said it was with
great satisfaction that he assumed the position of chief
magistrate of the City of London for the coming year.
He should do all in his power to expedite the business
and to prevent any loss of time to the suitors attending
the court, and he should also adhere to the rules and
regulations that had been adopted with regard to solicitors,
and he hoped, with the assistance of the officers, to be able
to conduct the business in a way that would be satis-
factory to the public.

A great many pick-pockets were committed for different
periods of imprisonment for robberies in the crowd during
the Lord Mayor's procession.

SOUTHWARK.

THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY COMPANY AND THEIR BORROWING

POWERS,

In consequence of the mind extension of the London,
Brighton, and South Coast Railway for the convenience of
the public at Brighton, Mr. Faithful, the solicitor to the
company, waited on Mr. Burcham with the necessary books
and documents for his worship's sanction and cercitie..ce,
under the r Kemp Town line Junction Act, 1564, to enable
the company to exercise their borrowing powers, a: pro-
vided by the act of parliament.
Mr. Burcham asked whether the requisite capital had
been subscribed for.

The solicitor replied in the affirmative, and produced
the documents, satisfactorily showing that the act of par-
liament h►d been complied with in every particular.
Mr. Iturcham, after inspecting the documents, expressed
his satisfaction, and gave the necessary certificate.

WANDSWORTH.
MORE VAGRANT CHILDREN.-SAD REVELATIONS.

Two little boys, named Eltrard Cherry, 13, and Abra-
ham Ssnith, 12, the latter without shoe) or stockings,
living in the gipsy encampment ne►r the Wandsworth
railway station, were brought up on remand from Saturday
last, charged with soliciting alms of foot passengers on
Wandsworth-common.

Police-constable Smith, 163 V division, gave an account
of the inquiries he had made. Ile said that he went to a
tent in which Cherry lived, and found his sister in it with
a cb,ll " stiff " with cholera. There was a man in the
tent also suffering from cholera. The prisoner had a
father and no mother. The father has four children, and
they all lived and slept in the tent. In the case of the
other boy he found 10 persona, consi4ing of two families,
all sleeping in one small tent. There was a small piece of
canvas us the tent to divide the families, but it was full
of holes.

Mr. Dayman—Flow do they get their living !
Constable—By making a few pegs and selling them.
That was their only means of living.
Mr. Dayman—Are any of the boys' friends here'
Constable—Yes, sir. The father of Cherry is present,
and the mother of Smith is here.

The father of Cherry stepped forward, and sktted that
he worked on the sewers. He was obliged to sleep in the
tent as he had been unable to obtain lodgings.

Mr. Dayman said the inhabitants were complaining of
boys who,under the pretence of sweeping crossings, followed
them begging, and were quite a nuisance. He would have
to send those children to some reformatory. and make no
order upon the parents to contribute something towards
their maintenance, if the nuisance went on. It would be
better to send them to school than to go out sweeping
crossins.

Smith's mother mid if his worship would let her boy go
this time she would send him to school.

Mr. Dayman said that while the boy. were young that
was the time for them to go to schooL It was their only
opportunity, for when they grew older they would be ex-
pected to earn their own living.
The prisoners were then discharged with a caution.

MONEY MARICET.-(THIS DAY.)

Own o'Owow.

There is little business in the Stock Exchange
to day, but the tone of some of the markets
is firm. Consols are in moderate request,
and have improved 1-16 per cent. for
the account. An advance has also occurred in
some of the British railways and foreign bonds,
though not to any important extent. Colonial go-
vernment securities are likewise inquired for, while
banking and financial shares are still neglected.
London Financial ara heavy, at the fall of yester-
day.

Provision having been made yesterday for the
large amount of Indian and China paper which has
just arrived at maturity, the discount market is
quiet to-day. The general rate is 31 per cent.,
but a few exceptional transactions have occurred
at 31. The supply of money is large.
Consols are now quoted 89i to cum div., for
money, and 88 3-16 to 5-16, ex div., for the
account (6th December).
Turkish Bonds of 1865 are in demand, and have
risen 1 per cent. Mexican have also improved 1,
and Spanish Passive, the Committee's Certificatee,
and Italian of 1861, *. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are
quoted 561 to 57* ; ditto, 1865, 317 to ; Greek,
13L to 141; Spanish Passive, 217 to 1; ditto Cer-
tificates, In to 141; Italian of 1861, 541 to 55 ;
Mexican, 161 to *.
American securities exhibit no change of im-
portance. The 5-20 Bonds are quoted 681 to 6:q, ;
Erie Railway shares, 511 to 521; and Illinois
Central, 761 to 'Tn.
Anglo-American and Atlantic Telegraph 8 per
cent. preference shares are quiet ; the former are
quoted 14,1 to it, and the latter, 4 3-16 to 5-16.
The directors of theOtago and Southland Invest-
ment Company announce that the accounts for the
half-year ending July 31 have been duly audited,
and that an interim dividend, at the rate of 8 per
amt. per annum, free of income tax, has been de_
dared payable on the 12th inst. The investments

and 881 to div., for the account.
At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes
opened at 69fr. 12c. for the account, showing no
change. _

With regard to a current report, if the govern-
ment could carry out some satisfactory plan for the
betterregulation of the debenture debts of all British 1
railways, it would necessarily tend to promote the
interests 'of railway debenture holders, but doubt
may be entertained whether it would operate to
the immediate advantage of the holders of some of
the unguaranteed railway stocks should govern-
ment extend their paternal care so far as to sub-
ject the accounts of the various companies to an
official inspector. In such case a manipulation
of the accounts as between capital and revenue,
practised by so many of our railway companies,
even by some that enjoy the highest credit, would
no longer be possible, and revenue would be made
to bear its legitimate burdens, whatever might be
the effect upon the dividend on the ordinary stock.
Only a trifling amount of gold —2,OMlf. —was
sent ir.to the Bank yesterday. The demand for ex-
portation is very slight, owing to the firmness of
the Paris exchange.

The following is from Messrs. Richard Gibbs
and Co's. monthly tea circular, dated yesterday :
The arrivals and departures since our last are as follow:
Arrivals.—At London : Chanticleer, John R. Worcester,
City of Aberdeen, Lennox Castle, Sir Lancelot, and
Tartans. At Liverpool: Everest. Departure. From
London White Adder, for Shanghai. Since our last
advice' the market has been much depressed, such sales as
have been effected have been made with difficulty at de-
clining rates. By the public sales now in progress, a fall
of Id. to 51. has been e,tablished for medium new seasons'
ironing. Common to fair blackish and reddish leaf Con-
goys of the old import, are a full Ad lower, and current at
from 10fd. to II id. Canton scented teas show much de-
pression at a decline of from 4d. to sd. on opening rates.
Burliness by private contract is extremely limited, the
trade showing great caution in their purchases and a
general want of confidence. Arrivals are numerous, and
most importers anxious to realise ; under these eirenm-
stances i is impossible to foresee how l°w prices may be
forced. In green teas prices for finest grades continue
firm, while for medium descriptions a rather easier
has been accepted. The public sales comprise 5=
packages, of which 48,500 are offered " without reserver
they were commenced on the 6th current, and are still in
progress. The Bank rate was reduced on the Bth Met. from
44 to 4 per cent. The stock of tea in the United Kingdom
we estimate at about 82,000,0001b5., against 85,000,000 The.;
and the quantity afloat (including the arrivals not yet
taken into stock) at about 40,000,00011 w, against
33,000,0001b1. at the corresponding period last y, ar.
