LAW INTELLIGENCE.

(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
Sittings in Banco.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erle, and
Justices Williams and Byles.)

WALLING= V. OURNEY.TACTION AGAIHST THE amain ►OI

AN PaSCAPE.

The plaintiff in this case, having recovered a judgment
against a person named Knight, issued a capias into Surrey,
and he was taken upon the writ, but upon his producing
an interim order of protection the officer allowed him to
go at liberty. The plaintiff, however, contended that the
protection only applied to process in existence at the time
the petition was bled, and not to a writ like the one in
question, which was issued upon a judgment signed after
the filing of the petition; and, therefore, that the officer was
wrong in letting hie prisoner escape.
The Lord Chief Justice, in delivering judgment, said that
the statute enacted that it should be lawful fur the court to
give protection against all process whatsoever, either against
person or property, until the party appeared for examina-
tion. The words of the order in this case expressed an ab-
solute protection against all process, and it would be incon-
venient ito require the sheriff to understand that such abso.
lute words meant only a qualified protection. The court
was of opinion that Knight was protected against the
plaintiff's copies.
Judgment for the defendant.
DRAPER N. STLPHIINSON AND OTHERS.— PROHIBITION.
Mr. Brett moved for a rule calling upon the judge of the
County Court of Lancaster to show cause why be should
not be prohibited from proceeding in this case; and stated the
following circumstances. The plaintiff was a member and the
defendants were the committee of management of the Royal
Liver Friendly Society, of which there were 150,000 mem-
bers. The plaint alleged that the defendants had been im-
properly elected to their offices ; that they did not duly per-
form their duties ; that they had delivered false and garbled
accounts ; that they had improperly employed the funds of
the saciety in establishing a printing company ; and that
they had improperly increased their own salaries. The
petition presented prayed that the defendants might be re-
moved from their office by order of the court, and restrained
from holding any office in the society in future or until the
further order of the court, and that a receiver might be ap-
pointed until the election of proper officers. The learned
counsel, whilst admitting in the words of Mr. Justice Byles
that, "The county court has all the powers of the Court of
Chancery, and something more," submitted that it was
beyond the power of the judge to grant the first Fart of the
payer of the petition. The plaintiff represented only
himself, and possibly the secretary of the society, who was
believed to be the real plaintiff, and the court surely ought
not to determine the dispute without hearing somebody on
behalf of the other members of the society, most of whom
were against the plaintiff. Further, it was submitted that the
matter should have been settled by arbitration, in accord-
acme with the rules of the society.
Rule granted.

PORTUGAL.

A despatch from Lisbon says
" The death of the King has caused a display
of deep feeling among all classes of the population.
The grief is great. The churches are crowded with
people ; the shops and public establishments closed.
All the ships and vessels of every nation at anchor
in the Tagus have lowered their flags half-mast
high, as a sign of grief.
" The Portuguese, French, and English ships of
war will fire each of them a gun every hour for two
days, from sunrise to sunset.

"The members of the diplomatic body have
waited upon the father of the late King to express
their sympathy.

"The Duke of Oporto, born on the 31st October,
1838, has been proclaimed King as Dom Fernando
11. A Portuguese frigate, accompanied by a
French steamer and an English steamer, left Lis-
bon on the evening of the 11th, to meet the steam
corvette Bartolomeo-Diaz, which is bringing the
new King. The Minister of Marine is on board
the Portuguese frigate."

ROME.

A letter from Rome, of the 6th, says :

Route is perfectly quiet ; foreigners are beginning to
arrive, and the public lectures are about to commerce. The
Pope has for some time past displayed gre►ter confidence.
Outlined Aotonelli has given a kind reception to the new
Auditor of the Rot► for France. The day before yesterday,
Wag the festival of tit. Charles Florromeo, the Pope went
to the chr-ch of St. Charles, in the Corso, to hold what is
culled ► papal chapel ; his holiness wu accompanied by two
of the new cardinals. A demonstration in favour of his
holiness was expected, the walls of the church were deco-
r►ted with inecriptiou in Latin and Italian, and the King
of Naples was is a balcony facing the sacred edifies. but
heavy rain fell an the morning, and prevented the popula-
tion from appearing in any number. Yesterday, at Catti-
sari, the church of St. Chalk., which hes just bona metered
by the Sern.ibitee, was reopened ; it is one of the prettied
cditiiwr in Rome, and the interior is profusely decorated
with marble and gilding. Father Souaillanl, who ban for
some days boon at Rome, leaves to-morrow for France.

, The commanding officer said it was with reluctance that
' be had brought the cases forward, but it was felt hems-
• nary for the good of the corps, and he hoped that before
the next hearing the defendants would make arrangements
to pay.
Mr. Dayman said these proceedings were necessary. other-
wise it would be very hard upon those who paid, as those
who did not would reap the advantage of the ethers' sub-
scriptions.
The commanding officer said that was the feeling of the
corps.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.

I believe there can be no doubt that at the full
council of ministers held to-day, and which was
attended by M. Fould himself, his appointment as
Finamss Minister was signed by the Emperor. No
one knows exactly what is the great accompanying
"political and financial event" announced mys-
teriously by Dr. Veron in the Censtitatiound. If
he means to refer to increased powers of the Corps
Legislatif with respect to voting the budget, that is
no news ; for M. Magno distinctly made the promise
last year, and it has been long known that the
Senate (now convoked for Dec. 10) was to make the
change this autumn. The Pattie surmises that
the Ceastitatielniet alludes to "a transformation,
by the unification of Rears, of a part of the public
debt." This revelation is not very explicit. The
Opinion Nationak Ewe that the eusiseitutionitel is
too sanguine in its prophecies.
The Bourse was very thln. It is hoped that on
Thursday the Bank of France will lower its dis-
count. The Rents rose 3i,c. for cash and 25c. for
account, closing at 09fr. 30c. in each case.
Mubi-
lier rose Bfr. 75c.; the Italian Loan 10c. Most of
the railways were 2fr. or Mr. higher.
M. Grandguillot has no luck—in French phrase,
it a'a pas de chance. A solemn article which lie
launched in the Pays a few days ago, the gist of
which was that M. Ricasoli was used up, and that
M. Ratazzi wax to supuraede him as the Emperor's
delegate, came out unfortunately just at the
moment when the Sphinx of Compiegne made
signs which have been universally interpreted as
signifying a reaction in favour of Italian unity.
There is now every reason to believe that
Ratazzi goes back to Italy as the supporter
and not the rival of Ricasoli. The Opinion
of Turin has given a positive contradiction
to the article in the Pays. M. Grandguillot
is now reduced to fall back upon his
individuality and independence. He disclaims
auy " superior influence or inspiration."
Proudly he asserts that the "Pays is a
voice, and not an echo." The misfortune of
his position is, however, th►t the more he proves
himself to be a " voice" the less he will be lis-
tened to. His only claim to possess the public ear
is the official position he held on the Constitution/id;
for before M. de Moray placed him there, he was
not a journalist at all, and nobody had ever heard
of him. As an independent writer, if lie now be
one, his reputation is to be made. He now argues

POLAND.

The Polish Gazette of the Bth Met. says:
Eleven stockists of the University of Mew have appeared
before the tribunal of police, charged with having sung
prohibited hymns at the funeral service for Lelewel, on the
28th of September. Three other students were arrest.,,,t
the 15th of October for the same offence. The authoritieJ
have warned the etnploys that it is their duty, under
penalty of dismissal, to denounce those who may sing in
their presence in the churches.
On the 9th the same journal says :

A coosiderable number of individuals arrested in con-
sequence of the affair of /fondle have been transferred to
the prisons of the fortress of Kiew. Our Polish deputies
did not go to Konigsberg. The Archbishop Puy'saki pro-
ceeded there alone. He has found no opportunity of
speaking to the King ; but Prince Charles having
asked him why so few of his compatriota were
at Konigsberg, the archbishop replied that the
deputies of the duchy had in recent times met with so
many difficulties and obstacles on every occasion when they
sought to make known the wants of their country, that
they considered it expedient to 'besot themselves. The
prince asked the archbishop if he desired that that should
be repeated to the King ; to which the archbishop replied
that it would have been very easy for him to say it him-
self to his Majesty, but that if he should not find no oppor-
tunity of doing so, he be;gel the prince to be kind enough
toast as his representative.

SOUTHWARK.

Daniel Cog Alan • dirty-looking fellow, was brought be-
fore Mr. Burnham, charged with stealing a pawnbroker's
duplicate from James Woolf, • German Jew, under the
following singular circumstances :
The prosecutor, a simple-looking man, who could hardly
make himself understood, said that about live o'clock that
morning, he was taking a walk about the Borough, when he
met the prisoner, and they had some conversation together.
Witnces showed him a pawnbroker's ticket fur some tooth-
picks. and asked him if he would buy it. The prisoner
snatched it out of his hand, and told him he was a detective
tinker, and he most know who he was, and he must accom-
pany him to a coffee-house in the Borough-market. They
walked • little way, and then the prisoner turned round
npon him, and seized hold of him, saying he was a detective
otßoer, and he should take him into custody. A real con-
stable thee came up, and witness gave the sham one into
custody for robbing him of his duplicate.
Police-constable 79 fif amid he was passing through the
Borough market about 5 o'clock, when he maw the prosecu-
tor in the grasp of the prisoner, who said he should give him
into custody. Witness asked what for, when the prisoner
maid, "Never mind, I give bim into custody." Witoon told
him he should not do so unless be said what it was for. The
prisoner then said that it was for embezzlemeat. The pro-
secutor then said that the prisoner had robbed him
of his pawnbroker's duplicate, and Boding that on him he
took him into custody.
The prisoner here said that he never said he was a detec-
tive, and as for charging the other with embezzlement he
did not know what it meant.
Mr. northern said that the prisoner looked the lead like
a detective of any man he had ever seen, and no one in his
SMUG would take him to be owe. It was a curious case,
and as be did not think any felony was intended he should
discharge the prisoner with a caution to mind what he was
about for the future.

DEATH OF THE BISHOP OF

DURHAM.

(BY BRITDOI AND IRISH MAGNILTIC TRU:GRAPH.)
FRILAT MORNING.
The Bishop of Durham died this moruin,s at a
quarter-past 7 o'clock.

The eminent prelate whose death it has become
our painful duty to record was for many years
rector ot St. George's, Bloomsbury, and during that
period was well known throughout the metropolis,
in many of whose pulpits ho appeared from time
to time as a preacher on special occasions,
under the name of the Hon. and Rev. Mon-
tague Villiers. He was also for • consider-
able time Canon Residentiary of St. Paul's.
He was born in 1813, and consequently was
only about 48 at the time of his death.
He was consecrated Bishop of Carlisle in 1856,
and translated to the see of Durham
in 1860. He always belonged to the evange-
lical party in the church, with whom he was ex-
tremely popular. As the incumbent of a populous
metropolitan parish he exhibited great earnestness
sad activity, and in the educational and benevolent
local organisations of his district he was a
nsalous and influential leader. He was the brother
of two hauling statesmen of the present day,
namely, the Earl of Clarendon and the Hon.
C. P. Villiers. Several families of distinction,
including that of Earl Russell, will be placed in
mourning by his decease.

when skill is out of the ordinary line. They are
profesional riflemen, and are remarkable for the heavi-
ness of their urns and their shooting aprons in green serge.
There are also among the competitory some bear-killers from
the thrpathimi mountains, and some bunters of the nerd
from the Pyrenees • but the personage who excites the

killer,ted
who may be seen walking about from one target to
another, apparently ea amateur.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(non ova ows coaassromwarr.)
PARIS, WXDNESDAT EVENLYG.
Yesterday, pursuant to the promise conveyed in
the Emperor's speech, a detailed account of the
"situation of the empire" was laid upon the
tables of the Senate and the Corps Legislatif. It
is of such enormous length, and treats of such a
variety of subjects, as to defy analysis on the cud-
den by a single pen. As I had conjectured would
be the case, the document presents a striking
analogy in point of form with the message of the
President of the United States. To my mind every
line of it is just as important as any in the speech
itself, and, more than the speech, on account of its
fuller details, it will furnish matter for discussion
in the debates on the address.

The evening papers cannot find room for, and
are not yet prepared to oomment upon the great
novelty of the day. The Prase merely quotes, as
especially important, a passage from the chapter of
"Foreign Affairs," wherein the Emperor takes
upon himself to say that if there be no provocation
on the part of Piedmont, the powers, Austria in-
cluded, will continue in an attitude of expects-
tion, and that "if Italy confines herself to search-
ing freely for the basis of a definitive organise-
tion under shelter of the principle of non-inter-
vention—if she take no initiative, which would
expose her to certain danger—there is ground to
hope that peace will be maintained."
It occurs to me, in connexion with this subject,
to notice an important disclosure in the expose—
viz., that France wanted at one time to interfere
by force to prevent the action of Garibaldi in the
Neapolitan states, but that the plan was abandoned
in consequence of the opposition of England. This
admission entirely bears out the statement of
Lord John Russell, as I read it in the latest
telegram from London,that the principal moral sup-
port of Italian unity comes from England, and that
France joined with Austria, Russia, and Prussia
against Italian liberty. I look upon the Syrian
question as at the present moment very (endue.
The Emperor, before putting the finishing stroke
to his great work, " The History of Julius Csssar,"
which has been so long announced, desires to have
some local information from Asia Minor, and he
has selected a young architect of Valenciennes,
K Edmond Guillaume, a laureate of the school of
fine arta, and a first Rome prizeman, to go out for

MARYLEBONE LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC

INSTITUTION.

About eighty of the members and friends of this
Institution assembled last evening at the Freemasons'
Tavern, at a dinner, the main object of which was to excite
increased interest in an institution which bad been largely
useful to the locality, and by enlisting increased sympathy
in its behalf to obtain such an addition to its members and
such an addition to its funds as should rescue it from the
condition under which it, in common with almost all similar
establishments, labours.
/dr. M. MILNGS, M.P., presided, and was supported by
Bir 1.. Goldamid, M.P., Lord Fermoy, Mr. Harvey Lewis,
M.P., &c.
It proposing the toast of the evening--"Success to the
Maryiebone Literary Institution "—the chairman described
the engin of the restitution, which he said dated as far
hack u 1832, when it had the distinguished panniers of
Lord Brougham, and dilated upon the great advantages it had
conferred upon the locality when educational facilities were
not so plentiful as at the present time. Unfortunately its
expenses had of late largely exceeded its receipts, and it had
at length become a question whether it would be prudent
to continue the establishment or alnudon it. Ho appealed
to the employers of labour, and the proprietors of large retail
establishments io the borough, to support the institution,
pointing out to them the advantages which they derived
individually from the intellectual culture which those whom
they employed might d-rive from it.
Sir L. GOLD3/lID, /LP., proposed "The Health of the
Chairman," and in duiug so expressed the deep interest he
felt in the institution, and earnestly recommended it to the
attention of the public generally, and the inhabitants of the
borough in especial.
The collection which was subsequently ❑ode was liberally
upended to.

MR. Commit, M. P.—Yesterday the corporation
of the city of London carried out its resolution, agreed to

in a handsome box of oak and gold, worth fifty guineas.
The ceremony of the presentation took place in
the council chamber of the Guildhall, the Lord
Mayor presiding. In acknowledging the compliment
Mr. Cobden entered at considerable length into a
consideration of the recent milliner:Ml treaty with
France, defending it in principle, and expressing full con-
fidence in the soundness of the policy by which it was dic-
tated, as calculated to unite more closely the nattered in-
Welds of the two couutries. The hon. member added
that the treaty must Ix practically incomplete so long an
the two governments maintained their present attitude of
hostility, or at least of defence, against each other. lie
also bore testimony to the complete good faith of the
French government, with regard to all the details of the
treaty.

EAST INDIA HIGH COURTS OF JUDICATURE.

fiir C. WOOD moved for i;;;; 1; iwiagi;; kill for
establishing high courts of pidicsture. The object of the
measure was the forniation of one court instead of the two
that were at present at the heel of the different systems of
law silirioistered in lwlia. Our of those was presided over
by two queen's judges, who bad jurisdietio• in
the presidenta' towns over civil matters, and
they also exercised criminal jurisdiction in impor-
tant marten over Europeans in every part of Inks.
There was• at the same time the Sudd. Court of Appeal,
which reviewed decisions from all parte of the country, and
discharged also to some exteut the summed facetious of •
minister of justice. A very strong opinion had Ix en ex.
peered by the oommi.siouers that it would contribute
greatly to the better adnlioistration of justice in India if
the two courts, the Supreme Court and the Ruddur Court,
mead be consolidated, coiubioing at Moe the legal know-
ledge of the lawyers coostituting the forum with the

with her busload at an extensive loilgitig.house in Char-

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-Jvxz G.

Sittinp in Banco—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erie and
Justices Williams, Vi'illes, and Byles.)
TAYLOR, APPELLANT, r. lIPMPHRETB,.RESPONDENT.—WHAT

Is A TRAVELLER ?
The appellant in this case was • victualler at King's
Norton, in Worcestershire, and he appealed against a
magistrate's conviction for having served petunia who were
not travellers between the boars of three and Eve on Sunda
afternoon. The conviction took place under the 18 and 19
Vic., esp. 118, sec. 2 and the ease sent up for the opinion
of the court stated that it was proved that at alit:l:err
four on the afternoon of Sunday, the 24th
were five men drinking ale and smoking in the appellant's
house. Two of them were the driver and conductor of •
public omnibus running several times a day be-
tween Birmingham and the appellant's house, a
distance of four miles ; and the other three bad
walked from Birmingham, and in the afternoon they
returned to that town, two by the omnibus, and the other one
on foot. The appellant asked them whether they were travel-
lers, and upon receiving an answer in the affirmative, ad-
mitted them into the house. The magistrates held that the
three persons who were not connected with the omnibus,
having walked a few miles for amusement or exercise, were
not travellers, and that it was not the intention of the legis-
lature to open public-houses on Sunday to persons living •
few miles away, and who might have walked that distant*
for peatime ; and they, therefore, tined the defendant Is.
and costs.

The learned Chief Justice said, that whilst the court sym-
tilted with the intention of the legislature that public-
should not be kept open oe Sundays, sou to draw
away from • place of worship those who would otherwim be
there, still they did out think that the facts stated upoe
theme authorised the conviction of the appellant. If the
customers had walked out into the country, whether for
bushier or pleasure did not matter, and needing refresh-
ment had called at a public-house to get it, he did not think
that the legislature intended to prohibit the supply of re-
freshment under such circumstances. In so holding they
meted in entire accordance with the judgment in " Atkin-
son v. Sellers," which decision would not in the smallest
degree exempt from conviction a publican who kept open his
house for public resort fur the population of a great tows
in the neighbourhood.
Appeal allowed.

dence of turning five 90-gun wooden ships, which were
about to be laid down, into irun.plated vessels. He gave

The house at length got into committee of supply on the
navy estimates, taking vote 11 for new works, improve-
ments, and repairs. This being the last vote, was agreed to,
and the house resumed.
The Seat India Loan Bill was read a second time.
