THE FENDS.

The Funds continue in the same languid state as for
these two or three days past, and scarce a bargain has been
done to the present hour. Consols opened at the same
price they left off yesterday, 92f for the Account.
The French expedition is at present the theme of re-
mark, and we may expect hourly some further details of
their progress towards Algiers.
The Foreign Alarket is also in a state of stagnation.
A report prevailed that the American packet of the 24th
ult. had arrived, but we do not find it confirmed by the
Liverpool letters.
Our arrivals this morning are very scanty.

The Funds are in the same stagnant state as in the early
part of the morning, and may be quoted 921 for the Ac-
count. The house might as well be closed, as not a bar-
gain is doing of the least importance.
We do not hear of any Express from Paris, consequently
nothing fresh has arrived from the Expedition.
The Foreign Market also remains in the same dormant
state as that of the British; Mexican Bonds have rather
improved, owing to the Report of the Committee going to
be published. South Metropolitan Gas, 24 prem. ;

2 HR-Eli O'CLOCK

The run upon the banks here for gold has
been much more serious than we were led to suppose
when writing the first paragraph on this subject which
appears in the Chronicle. It has continued nearly the
entire of yesterday without intermission, and is likely to
continue until all the bank-notes shall be sent into the
banking-houses.— -Waterford Chronicle.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
BOUVERIE V. MILES AND OTHERS.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a banker
in the Haymarket, against the defendants, who are Com-
missioners of Footpaths for the parish of St. Marin's.—
It appearsd that Mr. Bouverie some time since rebuilt his
home in the Haymarket, in front of which he erected an
iron railing, which by order of the defendants was re-
moved, for which removal he brought an action. On the
trial Lord Tenterden held that the defendants had (under
the authority of the Act of Parliament by which they were
appointed) a power to remove all such obstructions to the
public way as they deemed necessary, and the plaintiff wds
in consequence nonsuited. On a former day a rule nisi
had been obtained, to set this nonsuit aside, and to enter a
verdict for the plaintiff. After hearing Counsel against the
rule, the Court said, as the case was one of some import_
ance, they would take time to consider their decision.
Lord TENTERDEN, this morning, after going through
.the facts of the case, which have been several times before
the public, pronounced the judgment of the Court. His
Lordship said it was the opinion of himself and his Learned
Brothers that the Act did not give such an extended power
to the Commissioners as he thought at the time of the trial
that it did ; and that, in the present case, they had not
authority to order the removal of the railings. The rule,
therefore, for entering a verdict for the plaintiff, with Is.
damages, was made absolute.

The Court afterwards proceeded with the new tria.
paper. At one o'clock Lord Tenterden preceded to Guild.
hall, to sit at nisi prius.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
WRECK CASE. -A LLCOCK V. COCK.

This was en action which has been tried once or twice
before, relative to wreck.

Oo a former day Mr. Serjeant ADAMS obtained a rule
to remove the venue which had been laid in Middlesex to
Lancashire. The grounds of the application were founded
on a number of affidavits, which stated that all the de-
fendant's witnesses resided in I incolnshire—that they
were all aged persons, and, without any single exception,
in the humb!er classes of life. With respect to one of
these persons, named John Johnson, the affidavits stated
that he was a most material witness—that he had attained
the advanced age of 85 years, and that tloi journey to
London, from the place where be lived, not less than 103
miles diStant, could not fail of proving exceedingly dan-
gerous, if not fatal to him.
Mr. Serjeant WILDE this morning showed cause against
the rule.

Mr. Serjeant ADAMS supported the rule.
Rule discharged.

TIIESPASS-BLI.SETT V. WILSIN AND ANOTHER.

- •
Mr. Serjeant RUSSELL moved for a rule to set aside an
inquisition, held in this case on Saturday last. The tres-
pass complained of consisted in the defendant's having
stopped up a gate, and cut a quantity of underwood, the
property of the plaintiff. The plaintiff had recovered a
verdict with 501. damages. The grounds of the present
application were, that the Jury who had returned this
verdict had been got together illegally—that the verdict
was contrary to evidence, and :that the amount of da-
mages was altogether disproportionate with the trespass.
The defendant in his affidavit stated, that the notice
to execute the inquiry was at a public-house
in Worcestershire, and was appointed to be held on
Saturday last. That on the morning of that day
the defendant's attorney had sent to the Sheriff, who had
not received the brief up to eleven o'clock, (the hour ap-
pointed for inquiry was one o'clock) and that the Under-
sheriff did not in effect receive it until about half•past
eleven o'clock on the day in question. The defendant then
went on to state that the Jury could not have been empan-
nelled, and that he understood the Sheriff had only named
one or two of the Jurors, the rest of the number being
made up by the landlord, waiters, &c. of the public-house,
who actually acted on such occasions either in considera-
tionof money or drink.

Mr. Justice PARSE--Why, brother Russell, you have
certainly attended a Sheriff's Jury before now, and know
of what materials it is usually composed.—(A laugh.)
Mr. Serjeant RUSSELL admitted that he had ; but added
that the publican, who was a maltster, had himself acted
as foreman on the occasion in question.
Mr. Justice PARSE—WeII, and a very good man too—
a maltster is as good a man as any other.—(A laugh.)
Mr. Serjeant Russann—But yet, my Lord, I submit
the Jury ought to have been "indifferent."
Mr. Justice PARKE—Why, Brother Russell, I thought
you were complaining all along that they were " too is-
different."—(Laughter.)
The defendant's affidavit, in conclusion, stated that the
verdict had much surprised the Sheriff, who had told the
Jury that the trespass did not call for heavy damages, and
that be had subsequently intimated his astonishment to the
defendant at the undue amount of the damages.
The COURT eventually granted a rule, on the ground
of excess of &images and improper evidence.

ARCHES COURT.
HARRISON V. LANE.
Dr. Nacnot, gave judgment in this case to-day, which
was a suit promoted to decide upon the will of the Rev.
John Pugh, of Hereford, which was disputed on the
ground of incapacity by the sister of the deceased, Mrs.
Harrison. The Learned Judge went at great length over
the evidence. The deceased had indulged in habits of in-
temperance, and on this ground it was contended that he
became incompetent, from extreme weakness of body and
mind, to execute a testamentary paper. The deceased had
taken a dislike to his relations, particularly to the parties
opposing the will. The Court was of opinion that the
deceased, at the time of making his will, was perfect),
competent to execute such an instrument, and could not
for a moment imagine that such a conspiracy could have
existed, as implied among the witnesses in favour of the
will without detection. The Court was bound to place
reiance on the evidence of the witnesses on the candidit.
The Coast was of opinion that the conduct of Mrs. Har-
rison was extraordinary in taking possession of the de-
ceased's house, without waiting the issue of the question.
The Court pronounced for the will, and with costs.
