former rates. The quantity of British Plantation landed
last week at the Elst and West India Docks was 251

EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)
BREE AND ANOTHER V. EASTERN UNION RAILWAY.
This was as action on a mortgage bond, to recover the
sum of 1,0001., and it came before the Court on
deuintrer.
Mr. Baron PARKE delivered judgment this morning,
and stated that the Court was of opinion that the plain.
tiffs were entitled to recover against the railway com-
pany—Judgment for the plaintiffs.

DICKENSON AND ANOTHER V. GRAND JUNCTION CANAL

COMPANY.

In this case, which was sent down by the Master of
the Rolls for the opinion of this Court, the plaintiffs
were paper manufacturers, occupying a mill at Hemel
Hempstead, and they had instituted proceedings i❑
Chancery to try their right to the use of certain streams
and rivulets which had been diverted by the defendants.
The Master of the Rolls had asked six different ques-
tions, and on all of these the Court recorded its opinion
in favour of the plaintiffs and against the company.—
Judgment for the plaintiffs.
DIIICHESON V. NICHOL.

This action was tried before Mr. Baron Martin at the
sittings in London after last term.
Mr. BRADIWELL moved for a rule to show cause why
the verdict, which was found for plaintiff for the sum of
2041. 145., should not be set aside, and a new trial
granted. He moved on the ground of misdirection.
The action was on a charter party, to recover 4001.,
being the amount of freight on a cargo of cotton. The
defendant paid a portion of the claim into court, and as
to residue denied his liability. The defendant chartered
a vessel called the Lord Stanley, belonging to the plain-
tiff, for a voyage from Bombay to London. The freight
for the cargo was to be at the rate of 31. 10s. per ton.
When the vessel reached Bombay, all the parts of it
which were usually allotted to goods were loaded with
the cotton, but there was a capacious cabin, and as there
were no passengers to occupy it, the master went to
Messrs. Wright and Smith, the defendant's agents at
Bombay, and offered to stow away an additional cargo
in the cabin. They accepted this offer, and
a further quantity was sent on board, and the vessel de-
parted for London. The current charge per ton for
goods between India and England was at that time
71. 10s.; and on the vessel reaching its destination, the
plaintiff claimed that sum for that portion of the cargo
which was placed in the cabin. At the trial Mr. Baron
Martin told the jury that this additional cargo was not
included in the charter-party, and that they ought to find
what was the current charge for freight for the convey-
ance of goods from Bombay to London, that being the
amount to which the plaintiff was entitled. Mr. Bram-
well contended that this was a misdirection, and that the
defendant was not justified in charging more than agreed
upon in the charter-party.
The COURT granted a rule.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
Patrick Slater, 15, and Catherine Slater, his mother,
tern indicted, the boy for stealing, and the female pri-
soner for receiving, several handkerchiefs and other ar-
ticles out of rooms in the barracks at Knightsbridge.
It appeared that the woman has for a long time kept
a stall for the sale of fruit in the neighbourhood of the
barracks, and in the dealings of the Guardsmen with
her for fruit she and the boy had occasional ac-
ee,e_sB to the barrack-rooms, and thus effected
the robberies charged. In the evidence for
the prosecution, it was stated that suspicion had
for some time attached to the prisoners, as a great num-
ber of articles, some of which (such as a gold watch,
!Igo.) were of great value, had been stolen from the mem-
b..ers of the regiment. The case was clearly proved on
the present indictment, and the prisoners were found
guilty. Evidence was given that the boy had before
been convicted of felony.
The ASSISTANT JUDGE, in passing sentence, said that
on this occasion he would not inflict any more severe
ltini!hrpent on the boy in consequence of his previous
aconviction, as he had no doubt that the mother was alone
to blame fur her son's evil course of life at so early an
;ge• It was evident that she trained him to be a thief
or her own gains, although it had been preyed that she

THE CITY RAILWAY TERMINUS.
We understand that the report of the committee ap-
pointed by the Common Council to inquire into the
practicability, and the probable expenses of Mr.
Charles Pearson's plan for a general railway terminus
in Farringdon-street, was completed yesterday, and
will be laid before the meeting of the Council on
Thursday. Although the committee consists of 34
or 35 members, there are only, we understand,
three dissentients. All the rest recommend the adop-
tion of the plan in the strongest possible terms.
The three gentlemen who have acquired distinc-
tion in the committee, by their opposition to the
scheme, are Mr. Alderman Sidney, Mr. Alderman
Cubitt, the builder, and a Mr. Lott, Oce of these gen-
tlemen grounds his opposition to the project, on the
belief that it will tither be impracticable or unsightly;
a second is hostile, because of the great expense which
will be required to carry it out; and the third, we be-
lieve, hardly knows why he objects. But he knows he
does object, on the same good old principle, we suppose,
embodied in the well-known doggrel lines:—
" I do not like thee, Dr. Fell,
The reason why I cannot tell;
But this I know full well,
I do not like thee, Dr. Fell !"
With a majority of about thirty to three, we need
hardly say that there is a moral certainty of the scheme
being carried out.-111orning Advertiser.

Between the modern Greek character and the
modern Irish there is a strange affinity—there is the same
quickness, the same levity, the same laxity of principle and
assertion, the same cunning simplicity, or simple cunning,
and, of late years, the same insane idea of throwing away
that British connexion which alone keeps their hands off
one another's throats, and themselves from relapsing into
ferocious barbarians, We may almost judge what a native
Parliament sitting in College-green would be, from the pro-
ceedings of the native Parliament popularly elected in the
lonian Islands—though the Irish Parliament might be for-
tunate enough to have its mischief neutralised by its heredi-
tary House of Peers, which the lonian does not possess, its
Upper Chamber being elected out of the Lower, and forming
a species of executive as well as legislative body, in which it
is perfectly possible that the Lord nigh Commissioner may
find his most inveterate opponent a member of his own
together with his most faithful supporter,
Government,
The petty reduction of the. salaries of faithful supporter, officials,
and the spiteful persecution of the friends of that British
reap such benefit is the parallel
connexion,fetan .which they
to the dismal howl recently set up upon the appointment of
an Englishman to the office of secretary to the Catholic De-
fence Association. There is a similarity in their rebellions
--the one haVing been pUt down by a handfull of police, the
other by a sergeant and twelve men. The lonians certainly
beat the Irish in blasphemy. The wildest ravingso
the
most maniacal of the Young Irelanders never reached the
sublimity of scurrillity that the lonians did, when they re-
presented the Queen of these islands as the Father of all
Evil, tempting Greece to fall down and worship her and re-
ceiving the rebut, " Get the behind me, Satan." Alas for

might Byron write :
" All, save the spirit of man,' is divine."
however, if in advance of the Celt, who has a strong and
sincere, though, we think, mistaken religious feeling in out-
raging all religion and decency, the Greek is in no respect
behind him in the howl for repeal. The Rizopasta,, or Radi-
cals, who are avowed Socialists, and, we may presume, from
what we have just described, infidels, take great pride in
nicknaming themselves ".the Mountain," and in discovering
Or inventing likenesses to Marat, Robespierre, &c., in mem-
bers of their own body. A French proverb says, Toss lee
gouts sont respectables ;" we should be inclined, with this
before our eyes, to doubt the fact; but, unfortunately, with
the likeness in their persons comes a similitude in their de-

frantic confusion, and mischievous perversity, Sir Henry
