Gimmun Jury.)
NEALE V. LEVY.

Mr. E. James and Mr. Joyce were counsel for the
plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant Miller and Mr. Lush appeared
tor the defendant.

The defendant was formerly a sheriff's officer and bill
di counter; he is now the lessee of the Gravesend Pier
and Gardees, a place of public entertainment. The
actien was brought for damage alleged to have been sus-
eiieed by the plaintiff by his not having been permitted
to fulfil a contract entered into by him to supply the de-
fendant's gardens with illumination lamps during the
setwen of 1851. The plaintiff stated that he was en.
gaged absolutely to supply and light 4,000 oil lamps
every night. Thu defendant after a few weeks had gas
brought into the gardens, and dispensed wfth the plain-
tiff's further services. The plaintiff estimated the profit
ho would have made by the contract at 2001., and stated
that he had actually lost 80/. by the preparations belied
made for carrying it out. The defendant, on the other
hand, and his two eons, stated that the agreement made
with the plaintiff was merely to supply such lamps as
might be wanted, depending on the state of the weather,
and other circumstances, and that the contract was
weekly and not for the season.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff.—Da.
maces 401.

ANTICIPATED SECESSION OF THE
REV. J. E. GLADSTONE, B.A.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
It has been already stated that this Rev. Gentleman
had announced his intention to appeal from the adverse
decision of the Dean of Arches to tho Privy Council.
During the last few days, however, matters have taken
a sudden and unexpected tarn. It was. thought on all
hands that an adverse decision of the Privy Council was
possible, if not probable, and that the, ultimate issue of
the question would be Mr. Gladstone 's compulsory seees_
sicn. But after the strong language used by the Rev.
Gentleman with regard to M. r. Shore's ease, it w
thought he would not dissent till driven to it by the 3
de-
cision of the Privy Council, which, in this ease t.
court of final appeal. Those of his friends who ' a
o tho cr t
thus will probably find themselves mistaken. We have
