COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)
DANIELS AND ANOTLIER D. REICMLSSER.
A rule nisi bad been obtained in this case to show
cause why the appearance entered for the defendant and
all subsequent proceedings thereon should not be set
aside for irregularity, and why the plaintiff should not
pay the costs occasioned thereby, together with the costs
of the application. The application was grounded on an
affidavit of the defendant in which he said he was never
served with a copy of a writ in the action, hut that, on
the contrary, another person, named Spiers, who was a
customer in his shop at the time, WAS served with it by
mistake.

Mr. STAMMERS was now heard against the rule. He
was furnished with several affidavits. which directly
contradicted the depositions of tha defendant. One of
them was made by the person who served the writ, and
who said that he could not have made any mistake about
the-party, for Spiers was a young man of freih colour,
about 25 years of age, and the defendant a dark looking
man of middle age.
The COURT, atter hearing the affi lavits read in detail,
said they were of opinion that the rule ought to be made
absolute.—Rule absolute accordingly.

EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)
MORRISON AND OTHERS V. GLOVER.
This was an argument upon a demurrer to the decla-
ration, and also upon a cross-demurrer to three of the
. pleas, raising several questions for the opinion of the
Court upon the construction of three Acts of Parliament
having reference to the regulation of benefit building
societies. The principal question, however, in the case
Wes to ascertain whether upon the statutes, as one of
them specially provides that all nutters in dispute be-
tween the trustees of the society and the members
should be referred to arbitration, the trustees are
nevertheless at liberty to bring an action for any matter
in dispute.
The case was part heard yesterday, when the Court
Rave an unanimous judgment for the plaintiff on all the
points except one, which formed the subject of a ju‘dg-
meat delivered this morning by the Lord Chief Baron
upon the question of the right of the plaintiff to sue in
AU action at law.
The LORD CHIEF BARON, in giving his judgment,
affirmed generally the right of the irustoes to sue, and
therefore there was judgment for the plaintiff on both
demurrers.

BAIL COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Justice ERLE
Mr. Justice Erle presided in the Bail Court to-day,
but no case came before him calling for a detailed report.
Mr. ADDISON obtained two rules against the Directors,
and Mr. Newton, the solicitor of the York, Newcastle,
and Berwick Railway Company, calling .upun them to
show cause why they refused to deliver up the submis
lions to refer to in two instances of compensation de-
manded and awarded under the Lands' Clauses Con
solidstion Act. The object of obtaining possession of
the documents was to have them made rules of court, so
that the successful parties in the dispute, who were the
present applicants, might have their costs taxed by a
master, and the payment of them enforced.

SHERIFFS' COURT.--(THIS DAY.)
• (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL
OUTLAWRY.—HOWARD 0. THOMAS.
This was an inquiry to ascertain what property the
defendant, James Alexander Thomas, was possessed
within the bailiwick of the Sheriffs of Middlesex, the
defendant having been outlawed.
Mr, PEARSON, for the plaintiff, stated the nature of
the proceedings which were instituted by the Crown, in
order that the defendant's property might be declared
fort. ited to the Crown, and available fur the payment of
the debt due to the plaintiff, aiaounting to 3681. 193. The
Learned Counsel said that in these cases there was
always great difficulty in obtaining the evidence, as it
bad generally to be elicited from persons who were inte-
rested in protecting the property tor the defendant. He
would, therefore, call the defendant's brother, who was
one of the executors of the will of defendant's father, who
bad left defendant some property.
Mr. F. W. Thomas was called, but did not produce
"le probate, although subrceaaed to do so, as he sail it
was in the hands of his solicitors. He would, however,
admit that there was a clause in the will by which de-
!fendant was entitled to the rents of the houses, Nos.
.4, 35, 30, and 37, Cumberland Market. Defendant was
formerly a tailor in Gray's Inn-lane.
The UNDER•SHERIFF did not think that he could take
an admission from a witness.
Mr, PEARSON then tendered an office-copy of the will,
rWhich was admitted; and it appeared that, in addition
d the houses, defendant was entitled to 2001. Testator
coll to May, 1848. The witness said that the legatee
rY received 7s. in the pound, as shares which had cost
e deceased 7,0001. did not fetch more than 2,0001.
lDefendant went to Port Adelaide in 1847, and nothing
didiheen hoard of him since. In the event of his being
ell" the property would fall to witness and his brothers
and slaters. The property was bought for 5501. The
leases had 22i years to run, the rents amounted to 1001.
wear, subject to 36/. ground-tax, &c. Witness still
held the rents, but did not believe defendant was alive.
The greater portion of the rents had been laid out in
repairs,
The Jury found that on the 11th of O.tober defendant
Yras entitled to the property in coestion.

1101V-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
_ Several of the inhabitants of New Oxford-street waited
(Toe bir . hall this morning to complain of the number
of prostitutes who infested that neighbourhood. They
represented the conduct of these wretched creatures to
dMost disgusting, and it was quite, impossible for any
cent female to pats along the street after dark. The
police did all they could to abate the nuisance, but the
Characters complained of were b 0 much conversant with
the duties and proceedings of the police, that when one
~ef them made his appearance they scampered off away
Mtn his beat. Oit a recent occasion a gentleman was
decoyed by two of the girls into a house of ill-lame, and
niter they had rift d his pockets, they stripped him of
everything but his shirt, and then turned him out in the
Street.
Mr. HALL regretted that he had no power to interfere.
It was impossible to rid the streets of London of every
nuisance, and this was one of that class which could only
be dealt with by a magistrate when some of these bad
characters so misconducted themselves as to justity , a
police-officer taking them into
.custody.
The gentlemen who had been appointed to attend upon
his Worship as a deputation from the inhabitants of the
district, thanked his Worship for the courtesy he had
shown them, and retired.

DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY.
LORD CLAkENDON AND THE ORANGEMEN.—The
• Grand Orange Lodge continues in secret deliberation,
and nothing definite as to its, proceedings has yet
transpired. The arraignment of Lord Clarendon is
' still under discussion, nor will the result be known
until Friday. According to the _Evening Mail, the
delay does not arise.from any doubt, difficulty, or dif-
ference of opinion amongst the Orange body respecting
the propriety of a full disclosure of the negotiation
carried on between that body and the recognised
agents of Lord Clarendon.
The opinion is uanimous for a complete exposure
of the whole affair, but as the report is likely to be a
standing document of no little importance, it is re-
solved that it shall be carefully, clearly, and accurately
drawn up, and for this purpose time and deliberation
are requisite.
Mr. Corrie Connellan, it is announced this evening,
has resigned his office of Private Secretary to the
Lord-Lieutenant.
In the Court of Queen's Bench, this day, an appli-
cation was made tor an absolute order to strike -Mr.
John Reynolds, M.P., off the burgess roll; the effect
of which would, if complied with, be to deter that
gentleman from serving the office of Lord Mayor, to
which he had been elected.
The Court, however, cnly granted a conditional
order, and the result is that the objection to Mr.
Reynolds' name remaining on the roll cannot be
discussed before the 1.,t of January, the first day of
next term after he is installed as Lord Mayor, and
if it is then ruled against him it is almost impossible
to say where the proceedings may terminate, certainly
not before his year of office is expired.
