ROUSE OF .LoRos --(THIS DAY.)
Thew Lordships sat this morning to hear appeals.
the Peers present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord
Brougham, the E srl or Durham, and Lord Foley.
TEE TRUSTEES tF DUNDEE lIARBoUR v DOUGALL.
This was an app* at from the theism of the i ourt of
Session of Scotland. It appeared that in this case three
actions had been raised to decide theextent .of the rights
of the appellants, who are the trustees of the harbour
of Dundee. The respondent is the proprietor of an es-
tate situated on the south side of the Tay, near the
village of Ferry Porton Crag, and the appellants con-
tended that village came de facto within the limits of the
harbour of Dundee; while, on the other hand, the re-
spondent denied that the appellants had any right to
levy dues at the village of Forton Crag or along the
south side of the river.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL proceeded with his reply
this morning.

CHANCERY .—('l.ll.ls DAY.)
(Before the Loans JUSTICES.)
KENT v. JACKSON.
This appeal, which was partially opened on Friday,
WAS continued this morning.
In May, 1845, the Charleroi and Erquelines Railway
Company was establish' din Belgium as a" &vie:6 Ano-
nyme, 'by a royal concession, and certain articles were
drawn up, and subsequently sanctioned by a royal ordi-
nance, fur the regulation of its allairs. By these arti-
cles it was provided that the seat of the company should
be fixed at Brussels; that a general meeting should be
held half-yearly, which should represent the whole
body of shareholders, and take cognisance of the ac-
counts of the directors; that the approval at such meet-
ing should completely discharge the directors; and that
the deliberations of the general meeting should bind the
Company. By another article, Jackson, Graham, and
others were appointed directors, Jackson and Graham
being the acting English directors. A considerable
number of shares were allotted in England, and de-
Posits to the amount of 12,6801. were paid into the bank
of Messrs. Smith, Payne,• and Co., to the joint account
of Jackson and Graham. Differences subsequently
arose between the English and Belgian directors, and
On the 26;h October, 1845, Jackson and Graham seat
in their resignations, which were soon after accepted.
In November, 1845, a circular was sent by Jackson and
Graham to the English allottees, giving them the op-
tion either of takteg scrip in exchange for the bankers'
receipts, or of having the amount of their deposits re-
*timed to them without interest. A great number of
the allottees availed themselves of the option, and re-
osiesd back their deposits to the amount of 8,280/. Jack-
°on and Graham paid these out of the 12.5801., by
cheques on the haek,rs. On the 3d of June, 1848, John
ILiag Kent, the plaintiff in the present suit, purchased
ten shares in the company, and on the 24th of June fol-
. lowing filed his bill on behalf of himself and the other
shareholders of the company, against Jackson, the assig-
, flees of Graham. and the committee of management,
who were out of the jurisdiction. The object of the
snit was to recover, for the benefit of the company, from
the defendants, the 8,2801. returned to the English
allottees. It was insisted by Jaekson, the principal de-
fendant, that the act of the English directors had been
approved by the committee of management, to whom the
balance of the deposits, after deducting the 8,2801., bad
been paid over, and that the shareholders were bound
•by this approval. The cause was heard by the Master
of the Rolls, io July, 1851, and his Honour dismissed
the Bill. From this decision the plaintiff appealeo.
Mr. VVII,c cxs was beard this pawning fur the de-
fendant Jackson.
The business before the other Courts was not of suffi-
cient importance to cell for a report.
