COURT OF Kit4c3,!S BENCH, -Nov: 9.

The mO3t-of the day:was occupied in hearing mo-
tions far new triaN: As soon as Lord ELLENBOROUGa
took bis seat; he addressed tde Bar, in the matter of
a case sent to thejudges for special argument, that
of Meredith v. Meredith, wherein he Observed, that
it did not appear, trom the statement signed by
Counsel on both si,-;es, and delivered' to :him and to
theother Judges, by what medium it came to them
for their opinions, whether by an order from the
Court of C ancery, or the result of a hearing at
Nisi Prius ; insomuch that they vex left to guess
only how it eirne before them for consideration.
This. his Lordship observ'ed, was rather too Un-
ceremonious, and he trusted that the like would. not
occur again. At present he would not impute blame
to any particular party; but. it was to be understood
that the case was not before them.

USURY.

WOLFE AND WORKEMAN V. TANNER AND TOML7N-

SON.

This was an anion tried before Lord ELLENBO.

ROUGH at the adjourned Sittings for LondOn, and
broug'lt by the Plaintiffs, to recover a sum little
short of 25,0001. for commission, monies advanced,
and interest upon the same, claimed to be due froM
the Defendants,. as partners in a shipbuilding con-
cern at Dartmouth. Two points were made by the
Deiendantl' Counsel at the trial ; first, that the
deed of co-partnership entered into between Tanner
the ship-builder, and Mr. Tomlinson, was nothing
more than a colour for an usurious loan made by the

latter, and consequently was invalid and bad ; and,
secondly, that the commission of 3001. per annum,
charg;i-d by the Plaintiffs, in addition to the t per
cent. they claimed upon all remittances, was an usu-
rious bonus for monies advanced by the Plaintiffs in
their characters as agents. 'These points were urged
with great ability to the Jury, who entertaining a
different opinion, upoit a general view of the case,
found a verdia for the Plaintiffs.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL this day moved for a

new trial upon the
.two points made at the trial, and
euforced-their truth and- consistency in a speech re-
plete with ingenuity and argitment. The result was,
that he. obtained a rule to show cause, and from the
apparent bearing of their Lordships' minds, the Court
are likely to grant a new trial.
