to exhume the body for identification. Plaintiff had been
employed by defendant to obtain the necessary certificates,
but he only got the medical officer's return, and his bill
was £6 165., defendant having paid £2 108. on account.
The bill of costs was made up of attendances and journeys.
Mr. Besley, for the defendant, called the clerk to the
defendant's attorney, and that gentleman deposed to hav-
ing obtained all the necessary documents and settled the
claim with the insurance office. Plaintiff had bungled
matters so, that the office thought they were being deceived
by a fictitious claim.

The learned Secondary, in summing up, said, as plaintiff
was not an attorney, his bill could not be taxed, but it was
a pity he had taken up business without understanding it.
He appeared to have raised up difficulties where none
existed. It would be for the jury to say whether he had
been paid enough for the work done.
The jury having examined the bill, and briefly consulted,
found that plaintiff had been amply remunerated for his
services by the money paid.
Verdict for defendant.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

OMNIBUS RIVALRY,--Charles Taylor, conductor of one
of Mr. Rebbrts's omnibuses, attended to answer tho com-
plaint of Henry Horniblow, a driver in the employ of the
London General Omnibus Company.
Mr. Thomas Beard, of Basinghall-street, appeared for the
complainant, and said that some time ago the present com-
plainant was summoned to this court by the defendant
Taylor, and underwent a month's imprisonment for annoy-
ing him, and ever since then the complainant had been
greatly annoyed by the defendant. On the morning of the
19th inst., the omnibus of which the defendant was the con-
ductor drew up alongside that of which the complainant
was the driver in the Regent-circus, and whilst a lady was
speaking to the complainant the defendant went from be-
hind his omnibus and said, ,4 He (meaning the complainant)
does not go where he says. He will only deceive you. Do
not go by him." The complaisant told the defendant to
leave the lady alone, and the defendant then exclaimed,
" You have had a month," at the same time calling the at-
tention of the passers by to the complainant, and continu-
ing to exclaim, "He has come out of prison. What do you
think of him." The complainant then applied at this court
for a summons, and ever since the summons had been taken
out, had been subjected to a great deal of annoyance from
the defendant.

Complainant and Mr. Fludyer, of Furnival,s-inn, con-
firmed Mr. Beard's statement.
The defendant said the complainant had annoyed him.

Mr. Knox said that, in the hopes of putting an end to all
annoyance on the part of the conductors and drivers of
rival omnibuses, he on a former occasion went to the ex-
treme, and seat the complainant, who was then the defen-
dant, to prison for a month. Taylor had had every pro-
tection, and had no right to upbraid Horniblow with having
been in prison, as he might judge the effect it would have
on the passengers. II Taylor had felt annoyed at anything
Horniblow had done he could have come to the court and
had satisfaction. He would not resort to the extreme
measure of sending Taylor to prison, but he would give
him the alternative, paying a fine of 405,, or 14 days in
default.
