(Before the LORD bIIANCELLOR.)
His LORDSHIP this morning heard several appeal ma.
Lions, but notbinm of importance occurred.
(Bat Ore the LORDS JUSTICES.)

SPARROW V. THE OXFORD, WORCESTER, AND WOLVER
HAMPTON RAILWAY.

The arguments in this case, which has already been
frequently reported in our columns, were terminated
this morning.
The COURT gave judgment, reversing the judgment of
Vice-Chancellor Turner, and making perpetual the in-
terim injunction which was granted by their Lordships
last Michaelmas Term. The Court was of opinion that
the strip .of land absolutely required by the railway
company was part of the manufactory at the time of the,
passing of the Act, and both the Learned Judges con-
curred in thinking that the 92d clause of the Lands
Clauses Consolidation Act was not inconsistent with the
special Act obtained by this company, and that the
true meaning of this clause was not that a railway
company IT quiringpart of a manufactory, must absolutely
and imperatively take the whole, even in invitum, but
that they are only obliged to take the whole in the
event they are so required by the proprietors thereof.
The case was ordered to stand over till Saturday to
settle the exact terms of the injunction.

VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.
(Before Vice• Chancellor TURNER.)
WARD V. SWIFT.

The Court was engaged part of Saturday and the
whole of yesterday and this morning with these causes,
which originated in the simple claim of an annuitaut, for
an annuity charged by a testator on his estate, and in
which the difficulties have been multiplied by original
bills, bills of supplement and reviver, and proceedings
before the Master, involving the case in a labyrinth from
which the efforts and explanations of the different coun-
sel seemed perfectly unable to extricate it.
The other Courts were occupied with part-heard
causes, which presented no feature of interest.

THE KAFIR WAR.
ELYAIOUTH, MONDAY, MAY 3.
The merchant-ship Maidstone, Captain Nash, from
Calcutta, which left the Cape of Good Hope on the 17th
of March, has landed a passenger here.
Her accounts from the seat of war are seven days later
than those by the Agincourt, on Saturday.
Colonel Yarborough, of the 91st, has been slightly
wounded; Ensign Hibbert, of the 91st, wounded; Cap-
tain Bramley, of the Cape Corps, wounded; and 26 sol-
diers of the 91st and 74th Regiments killed and wounded.
These casualties occurred among a patrol who had
successfully attacked some Kafir kraals in the Water-
kloof, and who were themselves attacked on their return
(•:.s usual) by combined Kafirs and Hottentots. This
affair occurred between the Ist and 17th of March.

--
Sir Harry Smith left King William's Town on the 4th
of March. with the intention of attacking the enemy's
fastnesses. _ _

His forces were divided into three divisions, and con-
sisted of the 73d, 60th Rifles, the 43d and.l2th Lancers,
Artillery levies, &c.

Glasgow. May 3.

Intelligence was received yesterday from the su-
perintendent and cashier of the Nouveau Monde Company
in California, which may tend to enlighten the public as to
the value of the " leases" and claims in that State, which
have lately been vended as prizes to English speculators.
The report, both with respect to the difficulties connected
with Colonel Fremont's title and with his power to put par-
ties into possession of any mineral grants, was such as to
prevent their making any attempt at present to esta-
blish themselves on his property. The superintendent was
accordingly about to visit other localities more to the north
of California, where favourable positions for works and
abundance of gold quartz were understood by him to exist.
PRESENTATION OF THE FREEDOM of AYR TO
LORD COWAN. —The freedom of the burgh of Ayr was pre-
sented to Lord Cowan on Saturday last on the occasion of
his first visit to his native place as one of the Judges of the
Justiciary Court.—Scotsman.
DEMOLITION OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE.—In COD-
sequence of many thousands of persons in the United King-
dom having been unable to obtain a copy of the Great
Exhibition Chart, printed in colours, and presented by the
proprietors of the Weekly Dispatch, to their subscribers and
the public, in the months of January and February last, a
re-issue has been determined upon, to take place on Sunday,
the 16th of May. The Chart, which has undergone a careful
revision, shows by simple diagrams the number of persons
that visited the Exhibition daily, the amount of money taken
at the various entrances, the quantity of refreshments con-
sumed; the names of the Royal Commissioners; an account
of the origin of the Palace, and its dimensions in feet. In
order that every individual in the country may possess this
statistical reflex of curious and interesting results, to mark
the demolition of the building, and to serve as a memento
of its existence, the Chart will be delivered gratis to every
subscriber and purchaser of the Dispatch on the day stated.
The Dispatch is published at four o'clock every Saturday
morning, in time for the first railway trains leaving London,
and for the morning mails. Early orders should be given to
all newsvenders in town or country ; or to Mr. R. J. Wood,
No. 139, Fleet-street. The news agents will have a copy of
the Chart with every Dispatch of May 16th.
We understand that the Earl of Pembroke hi!.s
.
taken a chateau at St. Germain for the summer. His Loor4s
ship is perfectly recovered from his long and danger u
illness.
