NEW PUBLICATIONS.

MR. COLBURN, of GREAT MARLBO-
ROUGH-STREET, will publish during the Presen
Month, the following NEW WORKS :

I.
A SECOND EDITION of MISS PARDOE'S " CITY OF
THE SULTAN." 3 vols. small Bvo

The first ordinary meeting for the Session of the
Society of Antiquaries, was held on Wednesday evening,
Hudson Gurney, Esq., Vice-President in the chair.—
Several presents were announced, and Mr. Thomas Wright,
M.A., and Mr. C. J. Smith were elected fellows. A com-
munication was read from Mr. C. Woodward descriptive of
two swords found in the neighbourhood of Norwich, one
weighing 21b.50z., which was discovered near the remains.
of a human skeleton, and supposed of the year 1381, when
Norwich was besieged by Henry de la Spencer. A com-
munication was also read from Mr. G. F. Watts, being a re-
gister of different public entries made in Mentz and Tourney
in the reign of Henry V.
The Caliph of Bagdad being a man of fun, kept
a fool or jester, whose name was Abulnawaz, who used to
please his master by his well-timed jokes. One day the
Caliph was sitting in his divan with his Ministers of State,
he looked out of a window and saw Abulnawaz coming, he
ordered as many eggs to be brought in as there were per-
sons in company (himself excepted), which was immediately
done ; he then ordered each individual to put one of the
eggs under him, and told them that when Abulnawaz
came in he would talk upon the possibility of their laying
eggs, desiring them that when he ordered them to do
so they were to appear to comply, though not without
some trouble and pain. Abulnawaz by this time being
come in and seated, the conversation turned upon va-
rious subjects, at length he spoke about the possibility of
their laying eggs, some thought it possible, some thought it
otherwise ; but the Sultan to prove it, ordered each indi-
vidual immediately to lay an egg, or have his head cut off.
The conversation soon turned from politics to egg-laying,
when by degrees, and with much apparent labour, they
began to produce their eggs. Abulnawaz was confounded,
but thinking it must be a trick to turn the laugh on him,
who lost no opportunity of joking on others, he began to
walk on his bands and feet, and to cluck and crow like a
cock, and pushing up against the gentlemen who turned
hens to please their King. The Caliph asked, what are
you doing? If you do not lay an egg, I will cut off your
head. He replied, I thought you were a Caliph of judg-
ment; how do you expect to get good eggs for the market
without a cock ? Now, I am the cock, and those gentlemen
are my hens, and you are the seller of my productions.—

THOLIC ScutooLs.-1 he redoubted Member for Kilmar-

dour, every one has heard (especially those who have lis-

fame, at least a pretty extensive notoriety in this wicked
world, albeit not of a very enviable kind. O'Connell, it
has been seen, has thought it worth his while to honour
him with a rebuke, which the pious slanderer will not
soon forget ; and we find an advertisement • in the.

Irish National Board of Education, Mr. Colquhoun as-
serted that the children (of the Glasgow Catholic Schools)
read the " Bible through the week; the master collects
them on Sunday within the walls of the chapel, and there
turns into ridicule the Bible which they gabble over during
the week. My friend detected him in the very act." The
Directors of the Catholic School Society, on seeing this
astounding statement, wrote to Mr. Colquhoun, calling
upon him to name, the friend alluded to, or himself to as-
sume the responsibility of the charge—and upon being in-
formed of the time, place, and circumstances, they
pledged themselves to investigate the facts of the case, and
to publish the results. Mr. C., in reply, published
a long letter in the Scottish Guardian of the 30th tilt., in
which he not only refused to divulge the name of his in-
formant, but declined even to afford any means of investi-
gation, on the assumption that a Catholic organization ex-
ists in Glasgow, which would prevent the Directors of the
Society from inquiring into, or disproving his published
charge. He admitted, however, that the grave charge
published by him was made upon " the loose and imper-
fect statement of one witness," whose " testimony he found
was not altogether so precise on this point as he had
thought ;" and that the person guilty of the offence was not
believed by his friend to be one of this Society's teachers,
but a person unknow n even to his anonymous informant.
So much for the veracity of Mr. Colquhoun and his friends.
—Scotsman.
ADVICE.--We were much amused at the advice
one Johnny Raw gave to another, on board a steambont.
Ephraim," said he," " you had better look out for your
boots to-night, or these fellows (the bootblacks) will get
them, and I'll be darti'd if you can get them again without
paying ninepence ; so you had better put them under your
'Row, the way I do,"—Bangor Farmer

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

PRICE sd.

COURT OF CHANCERY—Nor. 17.
NEESOM V. CLARKSON.
This appeal was opened yesterday by Mr. COOPER.
Mr. WAKEIIELD now argued that the plaintiff had not
shown any deeds in question, which were not referred to
but merely alluded to in the answer ; and that therefore he
was not entitled to their production from a purchase for a
valuable consideration without notice.
The LORD CH ANCELLOR Ihollgta,from the circumstances,
that the defendant could hardly have purchased in the way
he stated without notice of the claim of the plaintiff. It
was necessary, however, in order to get at that fact, to
look at the pleadings, and for that purpose he postponed his
judgment.

VICE- CHAN CELL 0 S CO URT.—No r. 17.
MORTIMER V. TREREVANT.

This cause arose out of the suit of Trerevant v. Frazer,
the facts of which must be familiar to the public. The
cause of Trerevant v. Frazer was instituted for the purpose
of having the assets of the late Mr. Farquhar, of Foothill
Abbey, who died intestate, duly administered among his
next of kin, some of whom resided in this country and
others in North America. Mr. Farquhar had assisted his
nephew, Mr. George Mortimer, who was engaged largely
in the woolen trade, and at the period of his death his ne-
phew was indebted to him in a sum. of 20,0001. This was
independent of a variety of claims for wool and other matters
which the uncle had furnished to the nephew. At first it was
contended by Mr. George Mortimer that 20,000/„ which
he had received from his uncle was a gift, not a loan, but an
agreement was subsequently entered into between him and
the other next of kin, with the exception of Mrs. Trere-
vent, who was not in England at the time, by which he un-
dertook to pay over the 20,000/. as part of the assets of
the intestate, on the condition that he was to be relieved
from all liability with respect to every other matter. In the
Master's Office, however, this agreement was departed
from, and a report was made in favour, not only of the re-
payment of the 20,0001., but of holding Mr. G. Mortimer
liable for the amount of the supplies of wool and other ar-
ticles connected with his trade with which his uncle had
furnished him. The Master's report was excepted to, but
after considerable litigation the exceptions were finally over-
ruled, and thereupon Mr. George Mortimer filed his bill
for a specific performance of the agreement. One of the
defendants in this proceeding, Mr. James Mortimer, de-
murred to the bill on the ground of want of equity, but
the demurrer was not allowed. Mr. George Mortimer, the
plaintiff, then died, and the present bill was filed by his
wife, as his legal representative, under precisely similar
circumstances. To this bill a demurrer had also been filed
on the same ground, and the question now was, could that
proceeding be sustained.
Mr. WrGaara supported the demurrer.
Mr. K. BeueE, on the other hand, argued that as the
former demurrer had been disallowed, the present could not
be sustained. _ _ .

The VicE-CIIANcELLon, in giving judgment decided that
the demurrer could not be sustained, and accordinglf or-
dered it to be disallowed.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, 1f0r.17.
CIIURCH-RATES—THE QUEEN V. RURDEB..
The ATTORNUY-GENERAL applied for a rule to show
cluse why a prohibition should net issue to the Consistory
Court of the Bishop of London, restraining that Court
from proceeding further in a suit for the subtraction of
Church Rates. In this case a most important question
was intended to be discussed—whether Churchwardens, of
their own authority, when the vestry had refused to make a
rate, might make a valid Church-rate which could be en-
forced in the Ecclesiastical Courts. The application arose out
of the followingcircumstances :—ln the parish of Braintree in
Essex, the vestry by a majority, first by show of hands, and
afterwards by poll, came to a resolution to adjourn, for 12
months, the making of a rate. That was, in fact, refusing
to make a rate. That was in. August last. In substance
the adjournment was a refusal to make a rate. On this the
churchwardens, of their own authority, made a rate of three
shillings in the pound on all the property in the parish, and
they fairly stated, on the face of the rate itself, that the
vestry had refused to make the rate, and that they had
made it of their own authority. The gentleman whom he
represented was a parishioner of Braintree, and being called
on to pay his rate he refused to pay it, on the ground that
it was illegal. A libel was then exhibited against him in
the Consistory Court of the Bishop of London, and the
libel very fairly stated all the circumstances of the case, the
summoning of the vestry, the refusal to make the rate, and
the fact that the churchwardens had made it of their own
authority, and against the consent of the vestry.
Lord DENMAN—And that the church was in need of
repair.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Certainly. Besides, that
was a fact that must be admitted on both sides, in order
properly to raise the question of the validity of the rate.
This application was delayed till the case was brought be-
fore the Judge of the Consistory Court, and on Wednesday
las the question was argued before Dr. Lushington, as the
Judge of that Court, and the difficulty which had interfered
to prevent its being brought hither was now removed. The
case was for their Lordships' adjudication, and all he asked
was to put it in a process of inquiry.
After hearing Counsel at great length, Lord DENMAN
thought that the Attorney-General might take a rule.—
Rule granted.

EXPARTE GRAINGER.
Sir W. FOLLETT moved for a rule to show cause why a
criminal information should not be filed against Messrs.
Simpkin and Marshall, the booksellers, for the publication
of a libel reflecting on the character of Mr. Grainger. The
publication in question appeared in a work called " The
Nautical Magazine and Naval Chronicle."—Rule refused.

CURIOUS APPLICATION.-WALTON V. MACHIN.

Mr. RICHARDS was instructed to make an application
to the Court, which, he would preface by stating, was one
of a novel and peculiar nature. It was for a rule calling
upon the plaintiff to show cause why certain wines should
not be sold, and the profits of such sale taken by plaintiff as
part of his debt. The facts were these :—ln August, 1836,
the defendant purchased of the plaintiff three pipes of wine,
for which he agreed to pay 1411. His Lordship would per-
ceive. from the price of the wine that the duty remained to
be paid by the purchaser, the wine being in bond. In the
June following the defendant, accepted a bill of exchange
for the above amount, which, on its becoming due, was not
paid ; and in October the plaintiff arrested the defendant
for the amount of that bill. The defendant in the mean-
time had never had possession of the wing (which still re-
mained in the docks), and was, in fact, in the custody of
the plaintiff. The defendant, when arrested on the bill of
exchange, applied to the plaintiff to sell the wine at once
for whatever it would fetch, and put the sum down in liqui-
dation of his claim, defendant being willing to pay the dif-
ference between what the wine sold for and the sum he had
agreed to give for it ; but the plaintiff refused to accede to
this very reasonable proposition on the part of the defen-
dant, and said he should keep the wine as a collateral secu-
rity for payment of the bill of exchange.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE—ReaIIy this is a most extra-
ordinary case. I don't see how I can interfere.
Mr. RICHARDS—The fact is, the defendant is sick of his
bargain, and wishes to get rid of it the best way he can.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE—WCII, then, lee him pay the
bill of exchange, and bring an action against the plaintiff
to recover the wine.—Application refused.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nor. 17.
GREEN V. CHAEMAN AND ANOTHER.

This was an action of libel brought by the plaintiff
against the defendants, the publishers of the Horticultural.
Gazette, for a letter which appeared in that work,-in which
the writer stated, amongst other things, that the plaintiff
had been a member of the Metropolitan Horticultural So.
ciety which held meetings for the distribution of prizes, and
that he had gained a prize of 15s. That he subsequently
attempted to obtain another prize, but failed ; whereupon
he became a member of a body called the Floricultural So-
ciety, which held their meetings at the Bakers' Arms, in
the city. That after he had become ono of the Bakers'
Arms squad his name was to be seen in every dirty job.
That he was a mean, shabby fellow. That if he was the
author of a certain vile letter which had been published
under the name of Green, he was unworthy of notice ; and
if he was not the author, then it was a pity that two such
beggerly souls (as his and that of the author of the letter)
could not be crammed into the same carcase.—Judgment
for the plaintiff.
