THAMES.

This waning, on Mr. Yardley Liking his seat on the
beach, Messrs. Knight end Wsstgett, builders, of Poplar,
who are the defendants in proceedings instituted against
them by the Poplar District Board of Works, accompanied
by Mr. Price, a barrister, and Mr. Beck, solicitor, entered
the court for the purpose of opposing an application to be
made to the magistrate to and • case which he had stated
for the consideration of the Court of Queen's Bench under
the new Art of parliament.
Mr. Hodgson, barrister, instructed by Mr. Morris, ap-
peared for the Board of Works, and recapitulated the cir-
cumstances which brought the parties before the court
Mears. Knight and Westgett bad been summoned to that
court a few wseks eines by the Poplar Board of Works for
refusing to pay certain coats incurred by the board for de-
molishing &Bowe butt on the Marsh Wall, Isle of Dogs,
by the defendants without erring the usual notices required
b the Metropolis Local Management Act. The magistrate
el the summons, and said be had no jurisdiction. Hie
worship was applied to to state a case for the ooneideration
of the Court of Queen's Bench, and bad dons so. That
err be (Mr. Hodgson) considered was defective, and ought
to be amended. . . .

oppeeed the motion, and said the are Mated by
the magistrate we. correctly met forth, and that no new
matter ought to be introduced. The magistnee had elated
that he dismissed the summons, and hie MUMS toe doing so.
After a long discussion, and the various points were fought
inch by inch by the learned weasel,
Mr. Yardley said the only point relied before him was the
alleged encroachment on ths Marsh Wall. He had clearly
set out the summons, and his decision and the point to be
raised before the Court of Queen's Bench. He refused to
accede to the application, and in conclusion said the whole
discussion was irregular, and the tandem of the court was
obtruded. If the case be had stated wes defective, the
Court of Queen's Bench would send it back for him to
amend.

Alattempt waa made to revive the disetuision, but Mr.
Yardley stopped it by saying, "Call on the p01i"....3 charges."

to bold tallow for near period., on account of the exceseive
