LAW INTELLIGENCE. - (THIS DAY.)

ROLLS COURT.
MORRIS V. MOSS-JUDGMENT.
The Master of the Rolls gave j udgment to-day in this
case. When the matter cams before the Court his
Honour at the conclusion of the arguments deferred givi ag
judgment, for the purpose of reading the evidence, i►l
order to satisfy himself whether the trade of a mercer
carried on by the testator in the cause, and which since
his death had been sold by his executors, formo d part of
the testator's assets. After reading the evidence his
Honour felt no doubt that the trade in question which
was carried on in St. Ann's-square formed no part of
the testator's assets ; because from the evidence it was
clearly shown that the trade had been carried on and
established by the testator's wife, who previous to her
marriage had carried on the business of a milliner, and
to whose exertions alone the profits that had been made
were attributable. His Honour must therefore decree
that the business of a mercer, which had been car-
ried on by the testator's wife in her name, formed no
part of his assets.

ORVIIETT V. CORSEII—JUDGMENT.
His Honour also disposed of this case, which has been
several times before him within the last few days, and
the facts of which we have already given, declaring that
one-third of the sum of 1,0001., namely, 3331. 6s. Bd.,
would be due from the defendant out of the estate of
his father, with interest upo❑ it from his father's death
at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum. His Honour
also ordered that if the defendant did not admit assets,
an account should be taken of his father's estate at the
time of his death. Upon its being intimated that the
defendant admitted assets, his Honour ordered the
usual accounts to be taken.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Wood.)'
HERNAMAN V. ARMSTRONG.—JUDGMENT.
His Honour gave judgment in this case, overruling
the demurrer, and reserving the costs to the hearing.
BOND V. ENGLAND.
His Honour also disposed of this case, which mooted
a question of construction totally devoid of interest ex-
cept to the parties concerned.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.
THE FOREIGN OPERAS AT DUI RY -LANE THEATRE:.

IN RE JARRETT.

This insolvent, the well-known musical director, at-
tended on his application to be admitted to bail till his
hearing. Mr. Reed appeared to oppose on the part of
Mr. A. Jones.

The insolvent was brought up from Whitecross-ztreet
prison, but the bail was not in attendance. The schedule
tiled by the insolvent disclosed debts from August last
to 1,580/., and the insolvency is attributed to the re-
ceipts of the Theatre Royal, Drury-lane, being inefficient
to meet this expenditure. Tue insolvent was the
manager of the foreign operas at Drury-lane Theatre,
and several vocalists, for services at the establishment,
are inserted in the schedule for their salaries, including
Mr. Hamilton Brabani.

It appears that the receipts at the theatre from the
16th to the ith May, during which time the insolvent
bad the house, were 1,2531. The insolvent had paid
4001. as rent of the theatre, and 586/. as salaries to th•
principal artistes, and he owed them about 200/.
Mr. Reed mentioned the case to the Court, and said
he understood the bail would not appear.

The officer of the prison made a similar statement.
The insolvent had attended from the prison.

.. . .
The court ordered the case to be struck out and the
parties retired.

111ARLBOROUG-11-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

ROBBERY OF PADDOCK, THE PUGILIST.

Emily 'Schwartz, and Emma Woolir, two women of
questionable character, were brought before Mr. Hard-
wick for final examination, charged with stealing a 201.
Bank of England note, the property of Thomas Paddock,
the well-known pugilist.

The prosecutor stated that on Saturday the 7th inst.,
shortly after his fight with Jones, he was in the Coach
and Horses public-house, in Greek-street. At that time
he had a large sum of money in bank-notes in his pocket.
He had been drinking rather freely, but was not intoxi-
cated. He got into conversation with the prisoners, who
were in the house, and treated them with something to
drink. He left and went home, and shortly afterwards
he missed a 201. note from the money in his possession.
He at once suspected the prisoners, and caused them to
be apprehended.
George Holton, butcher, Newport-market, said the
prisoners, when at the station-house, acknowledged that
they had the 201. note, and had changed it at Bycrafee,
in Leicester-square.
Thomas Watkins, assistant to Mr. Bycroft, shawl
dealer, Leicester-square, said the prisoners came to their
shop on the 7th inst., and purchased two mantles, pi-
ing for them with a 201. note.
Police-Serjeant Rogers said he took the prisoners ln.to
custody, and on the way to the station they tolder
they had found the note at the door of a public borugave
The prisoners, in defence, said the prosecute
them the note.
Mr. Hardwick thought that hardly probable, and cm.
mitted them for trial •

when a refusal‘ was repeated, and
sir William applied,
it was added, that his Majesty was the best judge of
what was right or wrong, politic or otherwise, in
his own States. Setting aside the tone of this curt
and suggestive reply, the refusal was marked by
greater hostility when the circumstances are consi-
dered. There is au overabundant quantity of grain
on hand in this kingdom, and the holders of it are
most anxious to sell. Indeed the price of it is now
at so low a mark, 18 cartini or 19 the tomoto, that
growers are suffering sadly. At this juncture, too, are
have a, most abundant harvest, so that grain may be saki
to be a drug ; our population cannot consume it, and'
yet the Government will not permit the exportation of
it. 01 course, to say the least, had there been the
slightest desire to stand well with the allies, the re-
quest of the British Minister would have been conceded
on the instant. One of the contractors for the supply
of our troops has been in Naples, and he, too, made an
effort to change the determination of the Government by
a substantial address to their interests. If the Minister
of Finance would procure him this permission, which he
sought, an offer was made to pay a voluntary export
duty of eight cartini the tomoto. Even money failed,
and as so powerful a motive in the South of Italy was
ineffectual, it is argued that the power of the reigning
motive must be strong indeed. What that is cannot
admit of a doubt when one considers the general note of
this Government.
