This wee as aoliOalifetibefene Mr. Judos Crowder at
the last Surrey Anises, when the learned judge thinking
that there wee no evidence to go to the jury, the plaintid
was sea sifted. Mr. Robinson now moved to set the nos-
es% ride, or for • new trial, on the ground that there was
evidence to go to the jury.
The plaintiff was formerly in the service of Lord and
Lady Zetland ee Isdy's maid, but she was dismissed from
her employment ca certain omen bring nude ageing* her
by the houstkeeper. Thereupon ehecummseced two scions,
the one against Lord ZeiLud tor wrongful distolosal, and
the other tor slander asionst the housekeeper. employing
for the purpose an attorney neared Voiles. Both edifies
were eventually oomprontieed by Souls for • sum of 3501.,
of which amount he handed over to Mies Fray but 601.
According to Miss Fray's statement It was not at all
within her contempletiuo that the action against Lord
Zetland should have been compounded, end she therekre
instituted proceedings against Voiles for negligence
in conducting her liff .irs, and on this theasion her
attorney was • _ pereon named Foster, the pre-
sent defendant. Wales, it appears, offered to pay the
plaintiff SOL and her cute, and have dune with the thing.
but this she referred, and so the case proceeded to trial before
Lord Campbell, when a verdict for 51. upon • bye point,
namely, that the defendant bad appropriated certain men
of the plaintiff, was re,uraed for Mss Fray. With this ver-
dict Mime Fray wee extremely dissatisfied, principally because
it left her character unj ustifiesigrora the imputations cast upon
it by the dierotual ot Lord Zeeland ; and ohs wee likewise
most dissatisfied with the manner in which her attorney, the
present defendant, had conducted her cause. Hence the pro-
ceedings now before the court. ID her bill of particulars the
demands demure trom Foster, for not haviog properly con-
ducted her action against Voules. She charges hen with
negligence and breach ot faith in not boring procured a. fresh
counsel for her in the place of Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., to whom
she entertained a etrong objection, on the ground of his ac-
ing in collusion with • Mr. Greenwood, a friend of Lord
Zetland, and who was doing all he ould to pre-
vent the cue coming Into court—and this, although •
Mr. Hawkins had in the first instance snugly oeunselled
her bring.nic the action against A.-odes, saying thet she
would certainly recover COOL She also charm negligence
in hie not calling Lord and Lady Zetland u witnesses in the
case as their W 1111040012 would show how much she had
suffered by the unentbwised compromise of the action agg
Lord Zet land. The action &gaunt Voiles was originallyiset
down for trial in Februsry 1868 ; but for some reason or
other It was not tried until Jew, every effort being made In
the meanwhile, ao the plaintiff contends, on the part of Lord
Zeeland, acting through Mr. o keep the OW
oat of court altogether. She at first Greenwood,deged that Mr. Haw-
k/se, her counsel, had been invited on a shooting exenulott
to Lord Zetland's, and that thus the learned gentleman had
been induced to betray her cause. However, at the trial,
Mr. Hawkins being called into the witness-box, testified that
he had no acquaintance whatever with Lord Zeeland, and
certainly that he had never been to that nobleman's place.
Wall, admitting herself in the wrong on that point, Mies
Fray paid the fact was beyond all doubt that Mr. Hawkins
was acquainted with Mr. Greenwood, and maintained that
throagnont the object of all parties was to do the patentee of
Leaded Lady Zetlead.

carriage t 4 JoAnne, owing to the employmeat of an incom-
petent owned I We all know Me. Hawkies, and certainly

failing teat, do you think yen can support an action for
negligence against en attorney on the ground of hie employ-
ing a particular counsel ? Is them any count in tn. decima-
tion fur • breech of contract P

Mr. Robinson—No, my lord. But Miss Fray charges
her attorney with impropriety in employing a counsel whom
she had iuld him not to employ. She hod her own reasons
for not wishing Mr. Hawkins to be employed, and she was a
better judge than Foster could be how La she was justified
in her couch:Wow.

HATTON V. ILEAN.-DIAMATIC COPVIUOIIT.
The plaintiff in thia twee heel been employed by Mr. Charles
%ma to compote some music to be played during the per-
formance of Meedeth, the Morgan! of l'enits, end Much Ado

ter UN defendant.

it-wrier- said the matter came before the court upon
demurrer to a plea, and the question raised wu whether, u
this maid* wee performed as as accessory to, and a+ part or,
the dramatic entertainment& got up by Mr. Kean, the plain-
tiff had say copyright an it. The plaintiff had been employed
by Mr. Keen to writ* the music in question, but there wee no
allegation M the piss that the eompoeition of the music or the
gamine necessary to compose it came in say way from Mr.
Yeas. Ile submitted that the cue was analogous to that of
• bookseller who employed en author to write a book, and in
that case the copyright in the book would clearly remain in
the writer until be assigned it by deed under seal according
to the set of parliament. All that Mr. Kean appeared to
have done was to say " I want mum music, write it for se,"
without contribution himself • single nom or a stogie idea.
Mr. Justice Crowder—The writer in an escyclopeedia we

Mr. Turner—Yee, and there was an express provision in
the statute as to revises end encyclove lies, stating that the
proprietors having paid for the articles should her, the copy-

they would not have had the copyright bat for an express
imaciment.

Mr. Justice Crowder—ln this case the musical composi-
tion was part of a whole, whioh was said to have been
dementd by Mr. Kean.
Mr.,Turnsr—And so a review was designed by one person,
who employed others to write. Suppose the person who de •
signed the Crystal Palace said " I shall employ moons to
make designs for ornament and statuary;' he mania not
thus have scgtured the copyright in those things. It wee
true that a person employing servants to maim him In de-
signing a patent would himself, to the excluiou of the ser-

Mr. Jostles Byles-11 this bad bean an invention nadir

Mr. Turner—But even nader that law, where the servant

Mr. Huddleston said the plaintirs music performed
with ilacbetA, in point of fact, consisted of • march in the in-
troductory scene, and one or two accompaniments to various
puts of the play, and things of that kind. He submitted
that the plaintiff had not acquired any copyright in whet he
had written, and that the plea was agoud answer to the action.
The answer was in substance this—" Your musical compo-
sition, which you say you composed. is part of the dramatic
repseeentatios la which you took part while in my enipl.q.
meat, and 1 (Mr. Kean) invented the dramatic piece ; that
is to say, the whole &wigs of ths piece tees mine, and I em-
ployed yon on it to compose a piece of music as an accessory
to it aail,part of it, on the express understanding that, having
paid you, I should have the sole right of reprssentatton."
Everybody knew that the production of Shakespeare. plays
at the Princess's had been carried out at great expense, sod
the arrangement of th• pieces was Mr. Keen's conception ;
some parts of the play were re-introduced and other. were left
out. Mr. Kean arranged it all, with the adjune's of scenery,
drawee, musical computition, decoratica, daring, and so on ;
and in that work he employed a number of psi eons to sesiet
him, each puma, according to his matiresiion, contributing
to the general dodge. Fur instance, en archanlogiet won

the proper armour and the proper furniture for the time;

Mr. Keen derived from th• study of old works. Every-

of the period represented on the store, and he
believed the proper one was only found after

Investigated by the mayor and magistrates, and it turned out
that there was not the slightest foundation for it. The de-
claration charged that the defendant's wife bad stated
that the school where this bad taken place was

the plaintiff heed, and that she would have been mere sorry
if Miss Oill had not behaved so badly. Redid not move on
the ground that the verdict was against the evidence, which
was contradictory, but on the ground that no special damage

such evidence, was not maintainable. In support of this he

Their lordships sold they would look at the declaration,
and reserved judgment.
