COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—Noy. 4.

(Sittings i Banco.—Bofors Lord Camploan sad Justices
Coleridge, Wightsan, and Elie.)
1117111 T IP. COLIMAM.-NIALTH 0/ TOWNS ACT.-LIADILITT

ThL action wee tried Ware Mr. Juatios Will., at the Let
manes tor the county of Eama, when a verdict was found
for the plaintiff, damages 20W. The declaration charged the
defendant with having left • hole and • quantity of earth nn
a highway Das, Chelmsford without any light at night to
wren passengers, whereby the ylandirs gig was overturned
and ih• plaintiff iejurn. It appeared that the hoard of
health foe Cheapened appointed a Mr. Fenton their Fur-
veynr, and Mr. Fenton, in the discharge of his duties, em-
ployed the defendant, an agricultunl inairoment nether, to
remove a certain pump, and place it on the spot in question.
The defendant animated the work to two of hie men, sad the
action wee brought &grind him for the negligence of which
they had been guilty.
Mr. M. Chambers now moved for a rule to show came
why the verdict ohould not be set aside, and a new trial had,
on the ground that the verdict area againet the evidence, and
of miedbeetion. At the trial the learned judge told the jury
that the defendant must show that the work we done honk
fide for the puma+) of executing the act of parliament (the
Public Health Act), and not with melanins or rock-
Wane..

Lord Campbell raid the direction wee rather In favour of
the defendant.

Mr. 1117eliainbera contended that the jag Oticht to have
left it to the jury to say whether the hole was deg in pur-
suance of the surveyor's directions, and whether the earth
was thrown out negligently. It could not be said that in
throwing out the earth the defendant woo not acting
bond fide.

Lord Campbell—The complaint is not making the hole, but
continuing It at night without a light.
ldr. Id. Chambers submitted that the surveyor employing
the defendant to do the work waa preciably the seine sa if he
had due it himself; that the responsibility attaching to it
=dray meted with the surveyor ; end that even if it did
not the defendant wee exempted from liability under the
140th section of the Public Health Act, which provided
"that any officer of the Board of Health, or other peuen act-
lug osier its authority, should Sot be liable to any action,
llabdilty, or Walla in respect of work done or outract entered
into bona flds for the purposes of the art-
Lord Campbell was of opinion that no rule ought to ho
granted. Making the bole for the pump wee perfectly jus-
ti Wq but to allow it to remain at night without a light or
otheralgnal, to warn parrs by, was neglect on the part of
the plaintiff, and unless there was some enactment to absolve
him from his liability he must be held liable to this action.
It would be very strange indeed if wee such en enact-
ment, rm., that peewee guilty of negligence, whaeby their
fellew-subjeata suffered grievous injury, should be Wemni-
fled, and that others who were in no way cuilce.and
knew nothing of the act, sad on whom no o to
guard against It rested, should be liable and should called
upon to compensate the injured party. Ho saw 110 ground
fur laying that the direction of the teamed Judge was excep-
tioaable, or that the verdict was against the evidence.
Judas Coleridge and Wightman Wag of the same
opinion,
The eel, wee refused.

A comidssabls suable of Wes for new trials was granted
during tie day.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER—Nov. 4.

(Sittlap ht Brasen—Betare the Lard Chad Baran, aad
Baron& Bramwell. Wanton, and Mansell.)
ATLINION AND WM P. TPCSWILL.

Mr. Mdle, ke the ettiedant, moved for arrest of judg-
ment, et fee &sew trial. This, be mid, was a very extraor-
dinary area. Thee were two counts in the declaration of
dander at the plaintiff's wife . that she was a whore and had
cumirdtbd adultery with two persons, and, by inuoido, that
abe wee qty of o.pen and notorious lewdness. The action
wee at amuck, before Mr. Julies Cressersll, and both
be awl kis learned friend who appeared ,phut him wee
'taw siihmased to appear in such a case. The plaintlL
baviggiseerted, wasin prison In Ireland, and the defendant
was la psi at Leicester for beating his wife. The words were
need le a pnblic-horse, and the witxtemee who proved them
sold they dhl not think the worse of Mrs. Atkinson after-
wards, because they knew they were not true. It was one
of the sherbet *lemmings up on record. The learned jodge
soda "The defendant is a foul-mouthed Wow—what
(=do you say." On which, to the surprlas of every
jury gave • verdict for 1001. The learned judge ;
N that the declaration disclosed no came of sollos, but
se ewe wee joined felt booed to &Tribe of It. He salted the
leered Judge to direct the iury, that thme waa no evidence
le gown the lauendo ; but his lordship was clearly of opinion
Shea the latimado did not carry it any further, and the wards
wee net eetionable. The appliration now was for wed of
egik ea the ground, that there was no cause of action

This was the adjourned examination meeting In the cue of
Anthony and William Marsden, shawl and mantle ware-
bonen:len, of High-street, Islington. The accounts, prepared
by Masers. Mart, extend over a twelvemonth prior to the

The profits were stated at if!., arainat which there appeared
looses 1,001!. (including 705/, on stock deetroyed by fire) ;
trade expenses, GO/. • and partners' drawings, CHI.
Mr. Bagley (instructed by Memos. Reed), opposed on the
ground that the account. were defective, sad that the books
had beta mutilated. The report of the Atrial assignmatated
that the bankrupts bad kept no regular books, but made
memoranda on slips of paper, which were stterwarda trans-
fernid by a clerk to the yeah book. They had given up no
separate paserty ; the bankrupt Anthony Menden stated
that be had sold his furniture for 401., at • public-home, he
did not know to whom. The money was pald in gold.
In answer to the mutt,
The official assignee stated that the property returned at
680/. had realised 486/. only.
Mr. Bagley pointed out various discrepancies In the
balance-sheet, and contended that there must be an adjourn-
ment sine die. The bankrupts had had accommodation
transactions to the extent of NU Several leave. bad been
torn out of the bill-book, and the explanation which one of
the bankrupts gave was that he had got an old book, and
that the lams were torn out Were he had it. The flee re-
ferred to in the balance-sheet occurred in March lost ; the
benkropes were insured in a respectable (Sloe for 2,0001., but
