'Business done

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lords Justices of Appeal.)
JUDGMENT---WANE V. CROCKER,

This is an appeal from a decision of the Master of the
Rolls, allowing a demurrer to the plaintiff's bill. The de
fendant Crocker, in 1855, filed a bill of foreclosure against
the plaintiff, Charles Wane, and others, in respect to an
estate situated at Aldsworth, in the county of Gloucester
alleging that he had acquired a legal right in reversion to
that property, expectant on the decease of Thomas Wane,
one of the defendants in that suit ; or asking, if Jiles Wane
should be held to be a prior mortgagee to redeem him. That
bill was dismissed at the Rolls except as to an annuity of
£BO, Crocker's right to which was not disputed. On the
death of Thos. Wane, Crocker commenced an action at law of
ejectment, alleging that his legal rights were not mortgaged,
and that it was net affected by the decree at the Rolls—
thereupon Jiles Wane filed and presented a bill for the pur-
pose of restraining the action by injunction. To this bill
the defendant Crocker demurred, and the Master of the
Rolls allowed the demurrer—hence the appeal.
Lord Justice Turner was of opinion that the order of the
Master of the Rolls allowing demurrer to the plaintiffs
bill was right, and ought not to be altered ; the defendant
had a right to proceed in his action at law.

Lord Justice Knight was of the same opinion, but if the
plaintiff had asked to amend his bill his llordship would
have allowed him to do so, but ho did not ask to amend
his bill.

Their lordships dismissed the appeal with eoats.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

(Before Mr. Justice Wightman and a Common Jury.)

JAMRACH V. SMITH.

This was an action brought against Mr. E. T. Smith, the
proprietor of Cremorne Gardens, by the plaintiff, for the
purpose of compelling him to carry out the contract entered
into with him respecting the money to be paid for the ex-
hibition of wild beasts at Cremorne. The defendant's
answer was that he had paid the plaintiff for one of the
weeks, namely, £5 15s. 6d., and that for the other, the
only question in diepute, he had paid £6 into court as
sufficient.

Mr. Jamrack, a naturalist and menagerist, said a number
of lions, tigers, monkeys, &c., were brought over from
Paris, and sent to Cremorne-gardens, of which Mr. Simp-
son was the proprietor. They were placed on the esplanade,
and he was to have half the money received from parties go
ing over the bridge for their exhibition. He was to pay
for the keep and care of the beasts. It cost £l4 or
£l5 a week. The takings never ca me up to what it was
supposed they would. When the female Blondin came the
attendance was very great. He considered he was entitled
to have half the proceeds as usual, but this was objected
to ; and as he had no new understanding with Mr. Smith,
the new proprietor, he considered the old contract in force.
This the defendant objected to.

The trial was proceeding when we went to press.

THE PRICE OF GOLD.

RAILWAT,!: AND PUBLIC CO..4IPANIES

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 2 per mille prem.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.221 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about the same price in London and in Paris.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 426 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.51 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg..
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1081 to 109 per cent., which, when compared
with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the
exchange is against England. But, after making allowance
for loss of interest and charges of transport, the present
rate leaves no profit on the transmission of gold to the
United States.

IRISH RACING FIXTURES FOR 1832.
111Anott.
Howth and Baldoyle Spring lB

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the London-bridge Terminus;
the Hon. J. Byng, in the chair.
Mr. S. SMILES, the secretary, having read the
notice convening the meeting, the report was taken
as read. It stated that the receipts for the half-
year ending the 31st December last amounted to
£355,504, and the expenditure to 1324,097. The
receipts hay: been derived principally from calls and
prepayments of calls on the company's shares, and
the exercise of the borrowing powers under the
original Act. The principal items of expenditure
had been in respect of land and compensation,
.0203,294 ; of the Hungerford-market purchase
£50,000, and for works, 155,680. Possession of the
whole of the land required for the purpose of the
works situated between the south bank of the
Thames, opposite Hungerford, and the east end of
Ewer-street, Southwark, had been obtained and
cleared of its building materials, and arrangements
for the remaining property, up to Wellington-
street, London-bridge, were far advanced towards
completion. The company had also obtained pos-
session of the southern portion of the Hungerford-
market property, on the north side of the river at
Hungerford, to enable the northern abutment of the
bridge to be proceeded Ni ith, and negotiations were
in progress for the purchase of the requisite
property in the Strand and in Vitliers-
street for the new terminal station at Char-

ing-cross. The company had been compelled
to purchase the whole of the St. Thomas's Hos-
pital property. The only part of that property re-
quired for the purposes of the railway was the cor-
ner of the hospital garden, forming the angle
situated at the junction of the South Eastern incline
with Wellington-street, Borough. Notice was given
of the company's intention to purchase such portion
of the hospital land, but the governors having ob-
tained an injunction in Chancery, restraining the
company from proceeding with the purchase of a
part only, the value of the whole property was re-
ferred to arbitration, as provided by the Land
Clauses Consolidation Act. The amount originally
claimed by the governors of the hospital was
1;750,000, and the amount awarded by the umpire
appointed by the Board of Trade, Mr. J. Stewart,
of Liverpool, was £296,000. This amount the com-
pany proposed to pay over forthwith and take pos-
session of the hospital, in order that the railway
works might be proceeded with. The directors of
the South Eastern Railway Company, who were to
work the line when opened for traffic, having re-
quired that the city terminus should be constructed
without delay, the necessary steps had accordingly
been taken to serve the legal notices for the pro-
perty required for that part of the railway, and
arrangements had been made for proceeding with
the works, including the bridge across the river to
the new city terminus in Cannon-street, as soon as
possible after such property had been purchased.
The directors were using their best efforts to have
the line ready for the conveyance of traffic between
London-bridge and Waterloo station by the ensuing
summer, and into the terminal station at Charing-
cross by the beginning of next year. The capital
account to Dec. 31 last showed that £672,655 had
been received, and £572,113 expended, leaving a
balance in the hands of the Accountant-General of
£100,542.

The report of Mr. Hawkshaw, the engineer,
stated that the contractor was making satisfactory
progress with the works of the rail way. The brick-
work of the viaduct was nearly completed between
Belvidere-road and Collingwood-street, and was
generally in an advanced state between Coiling-
wood-street and Blackfriars-road. Satisfactory pro-
gress had been made With the manufacture of the
ironwork for the street bridges, and the girders
were being fixed over Sutton-street, Broadwall,
and the South-Western branch crossing of the
Waterloo-road. Considerable progress had been
made with the Charing-cross bridge over the River
Thames. The four openings from the Surrey side
to the centre of the river were fininished, excepting
the cross girders and the roadway platform ; and as
respected the remaining four openings the cylinders
of one of the piers, at the far end, had been nearly
sunk to their proper depth. The ironwork of the
bridge, so far as had not yet been fixed, was gene-
rally in a forward state. Respecting the Cannon-
street Extension, since the passing of the Act the
line had been re-surveyed, and a property plan had
been preparei on a large scale, to facilitate the pur-
chase of the lands and houses that would have to
be taken. The design for the bridge over the
Thames at Southwark had been nearly completed,
and would be submitted immediately to the Lords
of the Admiralty and to the Conservators of the
River Thames for their approval.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report and statement of accounts, said they had
nearly completed their arrangements for obtain-
ing possession of the whole of the land and
property required for the original line. They
had been under the necessity of making
arrangements to take considerably more
property than was needed for the line.
They had also been compelled to purchase tl:e St.
Thomas's Hospital under a decision in Chan-
cery, although when they went to Parliament for
their original Act they intended only to take that
part of the property at the other corner of the
hospital garden which the railway was to cross and
they did not propose to touch any part of the
building. When the purchase-money was paid they
wculd take what they required and dispose of the
site, which could not fail to be valuable. The works
were rapidly progressing towards completion, and,
although there might not at present be much ap-
pearance of progress at the London-bridge end of
the line, he could assure those who had not seen for
themselves that a great deal had been done at the
west end of the railway, and at the crossing of the
river at Hungerford. In the course of a few days
from that time the works at the London-bridge end
would be in full progress. They were about to take
immediate steps to proceed with the city branch
into Cannon-street, and in which he trusted they
would make some progress by the time they nest
met.

Mr. THOMSON seconded the motion for the adop-
tion of the report.
Mr. COLES CHILD called the attention of the
auditors to an item of £42,000 in the accounts which
he believed should have been only £40,000, and if
that were so the balance would be £102,541 instead
of £100,541.
The Secretary explained that a certain sum had
been invested for the special purpose of meeting
part of the claim of the Hungerford-bridge Com-
pany, and the discrepancy would be rectified in the
next account.

The report and statement of accounts were then
unanimously adopted. The retiring directors, Sir
J. Duke, M.P., Lord A. Paget, M.P., and Mr. S.
Teulon, were unanimously re-elected.
Mr. A. BEATTIE, in moving the re-election of Mr.
G. Smith, the retiring auditor, proposed that the
allowance to the auditors be in in future £25 each
per annum.
Captain WARREN seconded the motion, and said
that it was a most satisfactory matter for a company
to have good auditors, and of importanee that they
should be paid to do the business well.
The motion was carried unanimously.
