LAW-THIS DAY.

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)
CHAPLIN V. YOUNG.

The Solicitor-General said on the Sth of March last the
Court made an order appointing the plaintiff, the represen-
tative of the mortgagee, manager and receiver of The Sun
newspaper and the property connected with it, and he (the
Solicitor-General) now made the present motion for decree.
There were other questions connected with the matter
relative to the form of the accounts to be taken, and as there
were other incumbrancers, Mr. Ridgway, who was one of
them, had been made a defendant in order that the re-
mainder might be represented.

The Lord Chancellor asked if it was competent for him
to make the decree asked for without having the whole of
the incumbrancers before the Court ?

The Solicitor-General quoted authorities bearing upon
the point to show that the Court had the power.
The Lord Chancellor said, supposing some of those incum-
braneers had actions going on in other branches of the
Court, if he made the decree asked for he had no power to
restrain those parties from proceeding.
The Solicitor-General said the bringing the other incum-
brancers before the court would be a matter of great diffi-
culty, owing to the numl er of persons concerned.
The Lord Chancellor said they must be brought before
the court. He could not make the decree asked without
that being done. He should, therefore, order the matter to
stand over in the meantime, the former order remaining
in force.

SWEEPSTAKES OF 60 SOVS.

The Solicitor-General remarked that, as the matter would
be attended with touch inconvenience, he wished for two
months' time to enable him to comply with his lordship's
directions.
The Court assented to the time asked for.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

THE QUEEN V. TRAIN.-THE KENNINGTON TRAMWAY.
_ . _

This action, which was brought against the defendant for
an alleged nuisance---viz., the tramway in the Kennington-
road, was tried at Kingston, and a verdict returned against
the defendant. This morning Mr Bovill applied for leave
to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside.
The court refused the application.

derable length, refused the application.

paid into court, but plaintiff detained defendant's teeth.
(Laughter.) They had been left with plaintiff to be eased,
and, added Mr. Langham, "We have given you notice to
produce our teeth." (Great laughter.)
Mr. Buchanan—We have no objection, I am sure.
Accordingly the plaintiff produced some artificial teeth
from his coat pocket.

Mr. Langham—But why should a man be deprived of
his own teeth ? (Loud laughter.) _

Mr. Buchanan—And why should a man be deprived of
his money?
It was ultimately agreed to refer matters.

Referred accordingly.
SINGULAR CONDUCT OF AN A.GENT.---lIADLOW T. LEE.

This was an application for a new trial, plaintiff being a
surgeon, and defendant a member of the City police force.
Mr. Buchanan, for. the plaintiff, stated upon the day of
the trial defendant agreed with the plaintiff to pay the debt
by instalments. The plaintiff remained at the door of the
court looking for his agent, and when the case was called,
Mr. Beard put in a letter written by the agent of the
plaintiff to Lee. He (Mr. Beard) considered this as a most
improper epistle. It was full of threats, including one to
take defendant before the Police Commissioners.
His Honour, upon reading the letter, handed it to Mr
Buchanan, saying, " What do you think of that."

Mr. Buchanan read the letter, and plaintiff denied all
knowledge of it.

His Honour—You cannot throw over your agent. This
letter contains a threat to indict defendant for perjury, and
is evidently written for the purpose of deterring defendant
trom:attending to oppose your application, which I shall, in
consequence,lrefuse. Plaintiff has a remedy against his
agent.
Rule refused with costs.

THE GROSS OUTRAGE ON A FEMALE IN HYDE-PART.
William Hudson, 16, errand boy; Henry Hooks, 14, a
shoeblaek ; and George Barnett, 16, labourer, were charged
with being concerned with others in a gross outrage on Mrs.
Catherine Storey, of 23, New-street, Brompton, an invalid,
while in Hyde-park, and also with stealing her purse, con-
taining some silver.

The prosecutrix, who was suffering from an injury to her
leg, was passing through Hyde-park, near the Serpentine,
when a gang of lads—the above named prisoners and two
others under remand being amongst them—rushed from
under a tree and most grossly assaulted and robbed her.
Mrs. Storey identified the prisoners, and said that at the
time she was on her way to the Edgeware-road. There
were persons not a great way off.

ther remarking that there was only a shilling in the purse.
At the station Mrs. Storey at once identified the prisoners.
Mr. Knox remanded the prisoners till the day when the
others will be brought up, at the same time recommending
Mrs. Storey not to go across the park at nine at night
again.

THE LATE BOILER EXPLOSION IN HULL.—
ANOTHER DEATR.—A short time ago we published the
particulars of a terrific boiler explosion which had occurred
at the steam saw-mills of Messrs. Barron and Co., Lime-
street, Hull. It will be remembered that the boiler of the
engine-house exploded at six o'clock in the morning, killing
on the spot a youth named Milner, and severely injuring
several other men who were at work. Some of the debris
was thrown into streets between two and three hundred
yards off. On Saturday, another youth, named William
Stephenson, fifteen years of age, died from the effects of in-
juries he received. The deceased, along with the other boy
Milner, was sitting near the fire-hole when the boiler ex-
ploded, and he was buried up to the neck in the Mrs:,
sustaining severe injuries, while Milner was killed at his
feet. Some of the other men who were injured still remain
in a precarious state.—Leeds Mereury.
AFTER A BATTLE. —The correspond ent of the
New York Tribune writes that he noticed in the hospitals
at Winchester bullet wounds of every variety, from those
made by the pea or squirrel rifle to the heaviest bore and
buckshot, but the most terrible were those from the Enfield
rifle ball, " which tears out holes large enough to put a sil-
ver dollar in, smashing bones like straws." There were
very few injuries by bayonets. The " little rustling mobs"
' I of lady visitors at the hospitals, though " the majority of
them extended their assistance to the Union heroes," were,
or the most part, "bitter Secessionists," and occasionally
gave vent to their sentiments in strong terms. In one in.
stance a rebel" whose leg had been amputated, inter-
posed the remark that he had been misled as to the blood-
he was very grateful

always been a headless devil, and had gone into this busi-
ness without lady by his side

was stationed were found cut and gashed, as if storms of
the field of battle the trees where the "rebel"
grape and canister had been poured into them. There was
a belt of scars and splinters ranging from 18 inches to 7 feet
from the ground, but most of them about breast high. In
one place a boot with a human leg in it was found upright
in the ground where its owner had steod. A portion of a
finger was also seen sticking to a tree, where it had been
blown from a human hand. In this battle many of the
officers used muskets and rifles by the side of their men.
IMPROVEMENT IN LIGHTINI3.IT he discoverer,
who works without any regard to Exhibitions, annihilates
the old way by introducing a substitute—a something quite
new, and infinitely superior. If there had been such an
Exhibition a generation or two earlier, we might have
owed to it a great improvement in the construction of
street lamps—in the size and form of the wick, the
application of the oil, and the construction of the
glass case. But it was a higher order of achieve-
mentsaid publicly that when we could bring down the moon to
light our streets, we might use gas for the purpose ; and
while he talked so, our fathers went On adding threads to
to set us burning gas- Sir Humphrey Davy
their wicks, and trying different shapes for lamps; but the
whole method was swept away when the gas was got well
in hand, and conducted where it was wanted. In the elec-
tric light we have again another principle which may do as
much good to another generation as gas-lighting has to
ours,—Once a Week.

Although the supply of beasts on sale in to-day's market
was very moderate, the demand for all breeds ruled heavy,
at Monday's decline in the quotations. The show of sheep
was rather limited, and the mutton trade was inactive, at
unaltered currencies. Lambs came somewhat freely to
hand ; nevertheless, the inquiry for them was steady, at
from 6s to 7s 8d per 81bs. Prime calves sold readily at 2d
per 81bs more money; but inferior calves were a dull in-
quiry. The top price was 5s 2d per Blbs. The pork trade
was in a most inactive state, and mulch cows were very
dull.
