LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. JU.YE n.
THE QUESSN V. HARLAND.
A rule having been obtained in this case calling upon the
plaintiff to show cause why a side-bar rule, calling upon Mr.
Bailey, the Clerk of Assize for the county of York, to make a
return of a writ of certiorari, should not be discharged, on ac-
count of the non-payment of certain fees due,
Mr. NEW ON this day slawsed cause against the role, and
contended that the Clerk of the Assize had no right to return
the writ on the ground of the non-payment of fees, because a
Clerk of Assize might demand twice as much as he ought to
demand, as had happened in the case of " the King v. Borth-
wick." Lord Mansfield had, in giving judgment, said that he
should be exceedingly unwilling to decide that any Clerk of
Assize had a lien upon the records of the Court for his fees,
because great public inconvenience would arise in consequence.
Collusions might take place between persons desirous of delay
and Clerks of Assize, who might demand fees so exhorbitant
that they could not be complied with. There was besides an
error in the charge for fees, one of which had been charged
twice over. But he would wish their Lordships to determine
the case on principle. Air. Bailey came too late to have this
side-bar rule discharged. He would ask, was the Clerks of As-
size to have the power of dictating to every prosecutor on what
terms they would comply with the commands of the Court. Be-
sides, Mr. Bailey stated that he hail no interest in the fees, and
thus put himself out of Court. It moreover appeared that it
was nut an invariable practice to insist on payment of fees be-
fore making a return. This was not a writ of the prosecutors, in
which the Clerk of Assize had the power of making terms as to
whether he would comply with it or not, but a command of the
Sovereign, and which must be obeyed promptly, without con-
dition and without bargain. He therefore submitted that the
rule must be discharged.
Mr. CRESWELL contended that the rule must be made abso-
lute. There had no unnecessary delay taken place in applying
to this Court, and a side-bar rule being obtained without affida-
vit—it would always be taken for granted that the person
applying for it had done all that was necessary. The fees
were fixed by Parliament, and Mr. Bailey was bound to collect
them for the Crown, and he had brought forward this case, in
order to know what was his duty, as regarded the collection of
those fees. With regard to returns being made, at the suit of
the Crown, before payment of fees, that was not a case in point,
because the Crown could demand a certiorari, as of right, which
a subject could hot do. It had been held that a gaoler had
a lien upon the body of a prisoner for fees due, then surely a
party had a lien upon a record dins own drawing up, until the
tees due to him had been paid therein. The Learned Counsel
then cited several cases in support of his argument. He would
submit that these were lawful fees,—that Mr. Bailey was bound
to collect them—that there was no case on record, in which
a Clerk of Assize had been called on to make this return before
payment of fees, and on these grounds he submitted that the
rule must be made absolute.
Mr. ROBINSON followed on the same side.
THE QUEEN V. 31R. BARON ALDERSON.
Sir F. POLLOCK said he appeared on behalf of Mr. Baron
Alderson to show cause against a rule which Mr. Newton had
obtained, for an attachment against him for contempt, in re-
fusing to make a return to the certiorari which had been ob-
tained in connnection with the above case, the Court having
considered it advisable to hear the foregoing case first, he had
given way. He wished to bring this fact before the Court,
that Mr. Baron Alderson had been applied to by Mr. Newton
to know if he would accept the service of the side-bar rule on
his clerk, as personal service, and that Alr. Baron Alderson
hed signified his willingness so to do ; that it had been se
served, and yet, notwithstanding this, Mr. Newton persisted
in making personal service on him, which he thought was
wanting in that respect which was due to the station he occu-
pied. He would submit that Mr. Baron Alderson was only
one Member of the Commission at the time that side-bar rule
was served, that he had no custody of the records, that he
could not therefore be called upon to make a return, and that,
therefore it could not be considered a contempt; that he took
no step in consequence. The person who had the custody of
the records,'Mr. Bailey, was one of the Commission, and ser-
vice having been made upon him, the plaintiff having made his
election, he had no right to serve a rule upon Mr. Baron
Alderson, more particularly in the manner in which he had
done. Ile would submit that Mr. Newton had made his appli-
cation to the Court without any ground whatever. The affi-
davit of the Clerk of Assize, and of the Deputy Clerk of Assize,
showed that Mr. Baron Alderson had no knowledge of this writ
of certiorari, until he was served with the side-bar rule, and
that Mr. Anderson, plaintiff's agent, was informed that the
writs would be returned on payment of the fees. And Air.
Bailey, the Clerk of Assize, says that the records were in his
custody, and Mr. Baron Alderson had no power to make the
return required himself, or to force him to do so, he being also
a member of the same Commission. He contended that when
the third personal service took place on Mr. Baron Alderson,
and which service alone had been brought under the notice of
the Court, the side-bar rule was spent, as six days had elapsed
since the service on Mr. Bailey. He would ask if all the facts
of the case had been fairly stated to the Court, would the rule
have been granted ? He submitted that the rule must be dis-
charged.

Mr. NEWTON could not understand why the rule, having
been served three times on Mr. Baron Alderson, could consti-
tute any ground for discharging the rule. He contended that
personal service was necessary—he never heard of any but
two services on Mr. Baron Alderson. The argument as to
the service being too late went for nothing, because the Clerk
had acknowledged service on the 2d of May ; and if Mr. Ba-
ron Alderson contended that he had no right to make the re-
turn, he should have moved for the rule to be discharged be-
fore the expiration of the six days. He contended that against
no oae else could he with propriety have moved for an attach-
ment, and submitted that the rule must be made absolute.
Lord DENMAN, in delivering judgment, said that the fac, of
the side-bar rule having been served on Mr. Bailey on the 30th
of April, and not having been served on Mr. Baron Alddrson,
the service relied on by the plaintiff, until the 10th of May, was
ground sufficient for discharging this rule ; but it appeared dint
when he was served Mr. Baron Alderson did that which was
most proper--he gaze the prosecutor every possible advantage,
and referred him to Mr. Bailey,who alone knew the reason of
the eon-return. It appeared that when asked by the plaintiff,
he admitted personal service, and did all that was necessary or
proper, by sending a message by his clerk, and it would be highly
improper to doubt that in any future proceedings he would have
admitted the service. These facts had been kept from the
knowledge of the Court when the rule was moved
for—under all the circumstances, there did net appear
to have been the least contempt on the part of
Mr. Baron Alderson, and if he expressed himself strongly on
the manner in which the personal service Was made on him, it
was no more than what almost every person would have done.
Under all the circumstances, he was of opinion that the rule
mast be discharged with costs. With regard to the other rule,
for the discharge of the side-bar rule against Mr. Bailey, as
that involved a question of great importance, he could not give
an opinion regarding it at present.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE and Mr. Justice PATTEsox con-

cured, and the rule against Mr. Baron Alderson was ordered
to be discharged with costs.

• INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT.
A PRISONER AT LARGE.—An insolvent, named Thomas
James Fellgate, was remanded on Friday by the Insolvent
Debtor's Court, for a period of eighteen calendar months, for
embezzling about 3,0001. the money of his late master, Mr.
Thomas Harris, a brewer in the Hampstead-road. Fellgate is
however, at large, .and supposed to have escaped to Boulogne.
By the new Act ,Mr, Harris could not detain him until after
the judgment was pronounced, as he was not in a situation to
charge him in execution. The insolvent was taken to the
Queen's Bench Prison, his discharge was obtained from the
detaining creditor, and in a few minutes he was out of custody;
he has not been taken, and, by a strange anomaly in the new
Act, if he can keep out of the way until the judgment has ex-
pired, he cannot be again taken. The subject has caused a
good deal of conversation, and the barristers in the Insolvent
Debtor's Court have expressed their surprise that no notice has
been given to remedy the several defective clauses in the new
Bill. There is a Bill now before the House of Commons, but
neither the bail, compulsory, or the clause alluded to are pro-
posed to be amended.

- A " METAL COLLECTOR !"—JOhn GeeVeS was opposed by
a person called Joseph Moses. He was supported by Mr.
WOODROFPE.

The insolvent had rented several houses, and Moses brought
an action for an alleged trespass. The insolvent had two houses
in Eagle-court, Strand, which he rented of Mr. Hawes, M. P.,
and since he had been out on bail he had given up the lease to
iVr. Hawes's solicitors. Moses said the houses were "valua-
ble," and would in a short time pay all the creditors.
It appeared from Moses's evidence that he was the son of
Emanuel Moses, charged with the " Gold Dust Robbery," he
said. he was a metal collector, and not his father. He had fre-
quented a gaming-house, called the " Little Nick," but not as
a " metal collector;" he merely went there to " play."
Mr. WoonitoirE said he was sure the Court would give
Moses no .assistance ; and he could only say that if the houses '
were such as had been represented, it was disgraceful to all
parties.

Mr. Commissioner HAtutts—Pray who is the landlord of
the houses in Eagle-court?
Insolvent—Benjamin Hawes, Esq., Member of Parliament,
and Soap-boiler.
Mr. Commissioner Haituts—lndeed.
The COURT held that they must have some evidence as to
the giving up of the lease to the solicitors of Mr. Hawes. The
ii;solvent had parted with his property, and would not have his
discharge on sureties enlarged. He was remanded to prison,
and the case adjourned for the required evidence.

MARCH OF DRUNKENNESS.—No less than
41,536,188 gallons of alcohol, which is double the strength
of what is called prool.spirit, are consumed in one year
Forty one million gallons of rank poison! Who then can
wonder at the amount of poverty, crime, disease, and death
produced in this country?
COMMITTAL OF FOUR MEN IN YORKSHIRE
FOR DRILLING.,--.lt will be recollected that a short time
since Lord J. Russell forwarded to the Lords Lieutenant
of counties a letter, intimating that if respectable bodies
of men chose to associate for the purpose of protecting life
and property, the Government would furnish them with
arms. In order to be enabled to use the arms effectually,
these bodies of persons must, of course, be drilled, and
since the publication of his Lordship's letter the Chartists
have been on the look-out to detect any of " the Russell
Armed Association men" in the act of drilling, for the
purpose of Dying an information by way of retaliation for
the committal of some of the Chartists for a similar offence.
They have at length succeeded in their object, and at the
Petty Sessions of Barnesley, on Wednesday last, four
tradesmen who had been drilling were ordered to find bail
to answer the charge at Rotherham Sessions.
THE DUKE OF BUCCLEUCH._We have the
best authority for stating that the accounts in the London
papers, and copied into some of the Edinburgh journals,
with regard to the Duke of Buecleuch's illness, are greatly
exaggerated. His Grace had a smart attack of fever (but
not in the least degree dangerous) in the early part of this
year; and before any notice of it appeared in the public
papers he was quite well. The last accounts are from
Naples, dated May 16, when he was in perfect health. All
the children had had the measles, and Lord Francis the
ycurgest (as already noticed) had died ; but the three
survivors were recovering fast.—.EdiOurgh Advertiser.
A HUMAN SACRIFICE.—On Thursday morn-
ing, at half-past nine o'clock, the solemn and imposing
ceremony of the reception of a nun was performed in the
Presentation Convent at Ilennessy's-road, before the
Right Rev, the R. C. Bishop of these dioceses, anume-
rous body of the city clergy, the religieuses of the con-
vent, and a large and respectable congregation, composed
chiefly of ladies from the city. The youthful and beau-
tiful portulante on this occasion, Miss Kirwan, was led to
the altar by two of her sisters in religion, preceded by the
nuns of the community according to their rank and four
lovely children dressed in white, bearing lighted tapirs and
baskets of flowers— Woteijord Chronide.--1. Surely this
immolation of the young and beautiful is far worse than
widows sacrificing themselves on the funeral pile of their
husb,..nols in India. The agony of preparation may in that
case last some time, the actual sufferings are soon at an
end ; but the privations and 'suffetinga of the nun last
through a long and weary life. The Hindoos are less in-
human than the Irish Catholica.—En. Stec.]

STATE OF TRADE.—'There has been a consi-
derable amount of busine,s done in yarn this week; and
those who had previously submitted to sacrifices, in order
to force sah s, have been enabled to command rather better
prices; but this is the full extent of the improvement.
NS hat has been considered as the regular market price has
remained unchanged for the last fortnight, notwithstand.
For
most the advance in cotton during the present week.
must descriptions'of goods there is but little demand. It
is generally understood. that the spinners at B;abbridge and
Ashton, who have been working short time for a munth
past, will resume-full time on Monday next.—Manchester
