There were t !wee junior Connie! ass lisle or them, and
alttion*h they knew their leader would nut Ise absent

to oi_seopy the time of the Court moil he could
attend. They knew the fact of how he was occu-
pied, because they asked that tine petit:otos might

eoininiasions of bankraptey, ere inure (movement
with that subject than perhaps any other set of
Gentlemen at the liar. They ore, Mr. Cullen, Mr.
Heald, Mr. Winkfield, and Mv. Montague; and
it is well known they cannot plead inability. Since
the business' of the Crum has been divided, much
confusion in its practice certlinly hay ensued, and
it has become highly necessary that your Lordship
shonlil make some shuttling order to regulate it.—
For my own part, I hive no objection that it should
be that Counsel were directed only to take briefs in
a jihrfieu:ltr Court, so as each might have a Court
allortedln

The Loan Cnastcat.t.ut—"• I have always OD.

my opinion on Thursday, whether they might to be

Mr. lilliALD—" I can assure your Loralihip, that

would have been stated by any of nay friends

it was high time to bring the *object before your
Lordship, as head of the Court, in hopes that you
would make a standing order to settle it, as we ere
at present unpleasantly situated. Our clients iu-
trust the conducting of their causes to the gentle-
'nen inside the bar, and it would be 'presump-
tuous in no, outside of it, to esamtne a responsibi-

without the assent of our clients. I expressly said

As to our Learned Leaders, I can assure them, if
we do not feel gratitude to them, we do respect for

As to your Lordship, we may express our gratitude

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Mat 13.

CROWN PAPER.

LIABILITY OF RENT OF MINES PAID IN LEAD
TO THE OPERATION OF 'FOE POOR LAWS.

This was ■n appeal by the. Earl of Pomfret
against a rate imposed by the township of Wreth,
in Derbyshire, upon a certain rent received by him
from the produce of extensive mines in the said
township, of winch he is the owner, but which lie
let 011 lease. The mines in spicstion, it appear•,
are lead mines, and are let ula►u a contract, by
which the lessees agree to pay him, by way of rent,
ow-fifth pert of all lead which shall be the produce
or the ore taken out or the said res, after it shall
have gone through the usual process of smelt-
ing. Pte.
Upon the part of the Magistrates of the town-
shy► of Wreth, by whom she rate in titivation was
iu►po•etl, it was contended by Mr. WILLIAIIIt and
Mr. RICHARDSON, flat, as the lead, like corn, was
the produce of the soil, the Earl of Pomfret insist
be considered es iu the occupation or the land, and
therefore liable to pay the usual rates incident to
such au oceupation.
. . -

On the other howl, it was contended by Mr.
SCARLETT, Mr. TYNDALL, and Mr. BIOSY. in •
most ingenious ergo 11IeIlt, founded upon various 1111
thoritirs, that as the vast in qnestion was paid in
lead, and not in ore, and as the Earl of Pomfret
could bring no action for a trespass, iu taking
away the ore, that be could in no respect be cuss.
marred in possess' or occupation of the land in
question. The ore, before he had any claim. must
have gone through the process of smelting, and
if this operation was neer performed, he bad no
claim whatever. As well might it be contended,
observed Mr. Bigby, that if a Gentleman let on
lease • certain marble quarry. and agreed to take,
by way of rent, every year a figure of the Venus de
sculptured from the marble of the said
quarry, that the poinesion of this statue would be
considered • pensession of the soil, and render him
liable to be rated iu the proportion of the value of
the statue to the value of the remaining
stone which h•sd been obtained from the quarry ;
or again, if the Earl of Pomfret had agreed to
take from the lessees of his mines, a certain 1111R1..
ber of kudos inkstands or ballets, instead of the
lead io the form or pigs. that these inkstands or
bullets come within the Pour Laws, and were liable
to be rated as indicative of the possession of the
soil.

The COURT obsenred, that the question had been
very ably and ingeniously argued, sod
their intention of taking tune to consider the case,
!same they delivered their judgment.
The Court then broke up.
