The further arguments in this part-heard case were

(Before the Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.)
NEWMAN V. HUTTON.
The arguments in this case, which were commenced
on Saturday and continued yesterday, were resumed to-
day. The bill was filed by the captain of a vessel trad-
ing on the African coast, against the defendants, his
owners, to set aside a settlement of account in 1838, upon
the grounds that the plaintiff was, at the time of the set-
tlement, in an insane or weak state of mind, and that he
was under duress. The original plaintiff, Captain New-
man, having died in 1841, the snit was continued, by
revivor, by his widow. It was stated by the bill that, in
1832, Captain Newman was engaged by the defendants
as master of the brig Industry, at six guineas per month,
and be was to have one-fourth of the profits of the spe-
culation in ivory, gold, and palm-oil, on the African
coast. It was alleged that after his return from the
fourth voyage, the defendants charged him with felony,
and in order to avoid the consequences of a prose-
cution, he assented to the settlement now sought to
be impeached, but not until he had been arrested
upon a note which he had given to the defendants. The
captain had ultimately given a cheque for 1,2561., and
had received a receipt from the defendant. It was con-
tended by the plaintiff's counsel, that the evidence esta-
blished that the captain had long laboured under nervous
excitement, and that he was at the time of the settlement
of the accounts very wild in his manner, and that he had
subsequently made attempts upon his own life, in the
last of which he had been successful. They contended
that what had been paid by the captain was merely a
sum paid as a comproniise, he being under apprehen-
sions from the charges or threats made at the instance
of the defendants, and they asked that the Court
would direct an account to be taken before the
Master. On behalf of the defendants, the owners
of the vessel, it was stated that at thel conclusion
of the last voyage Captain Newman called upon
them, and obtained an advance of money, and that atter
some delay they obtained access to his papers and
books, and their suspicions were awakened that
all was not right ; that in January, 1838, the captain
came to the defendants' counting-house, and at once
avowed that he had defrauded his employers to the ex-
tent of 1,0004 that he had been very uncomfortable since
he had returned, and was willing to put himself right by
paying the amount; that he admitted he had kept back
out of the proceeds of the cargo 140 gold:doubloons, 287
ounces of gold dust, and sundry bills of exchange, and
referred the owners to the parties resident in Leaden-
hall-street and Ratcliffe-highway, who, he stated had
purchased some of the property; that it was discovered
by the accounts that the captain owekthe defendants
1,6501., but they had taken 1,250/. as a compromise;
that no threat had been made by them or on their be-
half, but he might have been acquainted of his liability,
by his own solicitor; and that the result of the settle-
ment was favourable to him. In answer to the allega-
tion that the captain was insane it was observed that
there was no evidence of his having died by his own
hand, and that the very witnesses who deposed to insanity
had treated with him in matters of business without
calling in medical men or any friends of the deceased.
As to the ground of duress, all that was proved was that
the sheriff's officers had taken him into custody for the
debt, but this being legal custody, it had been well esta-
blished, and was one of the elementary principles of the
law recognised so early as the time of Sir W. Black-
stone, it did not amount to duress. Equity, it was
argued, could only relieve on the ground of fraud, but
the evidence failed to establish this, and the plaintiff, or
her husband, had consented to take advantage of the
settlement which had been made.

[The arguments had not concluded when our After-
noon Edition went to press.]

COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings at Nisi Prius, =at Guildhall,', before Lord Chief
Justice WILDS and a Special Jury.)
X WBANIC V. NUTTING.

This case, which lasted the whole of yesterday, was
resumed this morning. It will be recollected that it is
an action in a charter party, brought to recover the loss
which the plaintiff alleged he had sustained by reason of
the defendant having, on a voyege from Liverpool to
Calcutta, with a cargo of salt, in the ship Triton, put
into Bahia, and intermediate ports, and sold the cargo at
a great disadvantage.
Captain Walter Greg, on the part' of the defen-
dant, this morning deposed that be had been a
master-mariner for about seventeen years, and was cap-
tain of a vessel called the Diana, in October, 1845,
which sailed from Liverpool on the 2d of November in
that year, on a voyage to Bahia. He saw the Triton
lying at the dock-gates at Liverpool before he started.
The first part of the voyage of witness to Bahia was very
stormy; it blew a very heavy gale on the 6th and 7th of
that month. He arrived at Bahia about eight or ten
days before the Triton. He had been at Bahia many
times before, and was well acquainted with the port. He
received directions on December 15th from the Consular-
office to make a survey of the Triton to ascertain the
state in which she was. Captain Selkirk was associated
with him in making that survey. They proceeded on
that day to make a general examination of the vessel.
They found a cargo of salt on board, but they were not
able with the cargo of salt on board to make anything
like a satisfactory estimate of the state of the vessel.
They made such a survey as they could under the cir-
cumstances, and they made their report to the con-
sul upon that. A portion of the cargo was then
taken out and put into lighters. The cargo that
was taken out was very much dirtied by the
leakage. It was a very heavy cargo. After
the vessel had been lightened, he and Captain Selkirk
proceeded with the survey. They found she had been
strained very much from stern to stern. The pitch was
all cracked, and when they went below they found she
bad been leaking at every point, and part of the bul-
warks had been carried away. The cooking-house was
also in a shattered state. In his judgment it would not
have been at all safe to proceed with a cargo of salt, as
the vessel then was, to Calcutta. The injury she had
sustained was not partial but general, and very important.
Mr. Sergeant CHANNEL replied on the defendant's
evidence, on the part of the plaintiff, contending that
the ship was in a sufficient state of repair to take the
cargo on to Calcutta.

The LORD CIJ/EF JUSTICE then summed up the case.
He said this was an action brought by the plaintiff, the
owner of the cargo in question, to recover damages from
the defendant for the conversion of his property so
shipped in the defendant's vessel. This was not an ac-
tion founded on a contract, although a contract might
be presumed, but it was an action for the wrongful
sale of the cargo of salt shipped on board the
defendant's vessel. The first question for the consider.
scion of the jury was, whether the sale, which in point
of law amounted to a conversion, was or was not justi-
fiable. Secondly, whether it was a sale for which the
defendants, as owners, or for which Captain Orde was
alone reopeneible. It bad ever been moldered a matter

&great importance to see that a merchant's cargo which
was entrusted to the owner of a ship was
ttot disietstd o%• in any othei• manner than
the owner of that cargo gave authority to
dispose of it, except under such urgent circumstances as
would ju,tity the disposal of the property differently,
from what its owner wished. The responsibility was
thrown on those owners or captains who sold any cargo
to show that the sale took place wider necessity. The
sale should be such a one as the law con,tidered was a
sale of necessity, to furlish au answer, on the part of
the shipowner or captain, to the charge of selling a
merchant's cargo.
The jury found for the plaintiff.—Damages, 7251.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWT.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
There was less activity in the Liverpool Cotton Market
yesterday, which closed rather tamely for American
sorts; other descriptions are still, however, firm. The
sales were estimated at 6,000 b al's, and included 4.000
American at 31d. to 5441., 200 Peruams at SJ. to 5;1,2.,
100 BalAia at 51 1., 500 Egyptian at 51d. to 61 I. and ;P.
500 Suratl at 3d. to 4d., and 100 .sea Island at 811 to
Is. 3d.—Railway Shares were dull and prices were
lower.
The project for a Danish loan excites no interest here,
and although there have been subscriptions in the St
Exchange, the public will not be inclined to participate.
We have had too much of foreign loans already, and no
encouragement should be given to them, however small.
At present 800,0001. are required, and no doubt it is
hoped that one-half will be raised in England. It is
quite certain that our capitalists are sending away specie
both to Austria arid Hamburgh, and no doubt in con-
nexion with these loans.
The American accounts engage much attention, to the
exclusion, indeed, of almost everything else. The specu-
lators for a fall in the Funds were selling freely, being
convinced that prices would fall ; but all would depend
upon the further news from California. United States
Stock was 1081 to 109. Upon the Cotton Market we
are advised, in Stewart's Circular of the last date, that,
" Prices have undergone but little change since the
date of my last circular, per America, on the 23d ult.;
the succeeding week the average daily sales were 4,500
bales, with a stiff market; and on Monday, the 2911,
might be called nearly a quarter cent dearer, or equal
to n cents for fair Uplands. The steamer Canada
arrived in the lower harbour late that evening, but, in
consequence of fogs, we did not receive the letters by
her until the morning of the next day was well ad-
vanced. Although her accounts show a very healthy
state of things at Manchester, and generally over Eu-
rope, with large sales at Liverpool, still there was evi-
dently a disappointment felt, as an advance by her of a
farthing was generally operated for. The consequence
was a very flat market that day, with limited sales, at a
deduction of a quarter of a cent. on the lower styles, and
about an eighth on the upper grades."
Of the Stock Market it is said that " Quotations
for many securities in this list hare fallen off slightly
within the past two weeks, and the market has not
been so active as previously reported. This can
only be attributed to the increased demand for
money, and the screws put upon the market by the banks.
The payments into the custom-house will, doubtless,
be larger for some time to come, and the pro-
bability is that the banks will be more cautious in their
movements. They will be compelled to be so, in con-
sequence of a decrease in their means, by a withdrawal
of a portion of their deposits. Much, however, depends
upon our next advices from California. In the event of
large remittances of gold coming to hand, there will be
an immediate change in the complexion of our financial
affairs, and, of course, a great improvement in the money
market."
The latest dates from the gold region appear to come
through Mazatlan, and appear to be of about No-
vember 5. They confirm previous statements, but
mention that the washings had ceased owing to
the cold weather. About 4,000,000 dollars are
stated to have been found since the first discovery of the
gold, but some persons thought that not more than
2,000,000 dollars had been obtained. Immense num-
bers of persons were leaving Mazatlan. It may be
right to state, however, that many were content to
abandon the gold digging, and to take to trade.
At Montreal flour was 246.6 d. per barrel. Exchange
on London 11 per cent.
The Legislative Assembly of Mexico was opened on
the Ist January, and an excellent speech upon the
occasion was delivered by the President, who has for
the first time during many years had a budget prepared
and laid before the Congress. The President alludes
in most favourable terms to the resources of the Republic
and to the practicability of establishing an equilibrium
with the expenditure.
Although the French advices are good, and the Rentes
had further advanced, our Stock Market is exceedingly
flat, and there is by no means so good a feeling. The
supply of Money Stock continues large, and it is said
that sales have been made with the view of investing the
proceeds in the French Funds and Railway Shares,
which are so much below our own. Consols opened at
931 f, and have since been 924 i for Money, and 921 to
93 for Account. Exchequer-bills are 38s. to 41s. prem.
Bank Stock is at 196. The New Three-and-a-Quarter
per Cents. have been 93/ to 94/.
Foreign Stocks are Hatter, except Mexican, which
have been 25/ 1. Spanish Five per Cents. are 171, and
Portuguese Four per Cents. 25. Dutch Two-and. a-
Half per Cents. are 501 to 1.
The Railway Share Market has been exceedingly
heavy, except for the French lines, which have again
improved. Great Western, North-Western, and all the
other lines are depressed.

Lord Henniker had yesterday an interview with sir

LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAIL-
WAY COMPANY.—(THIS DAY.)
The usual half-yearly general meeting of the above
company was held this morning, et the London Tavern,
Bitehopsgate-streei; Mr. J. N. Daeiell, chairman of the
board of directors, in the chair.
The report stated that the receipts, including the ba-
lance from the previous half-year, had amounted to
29 6331., and that the total • xpenditttre hail been 17,7831.,
leaving a balance of 11,852/. applicable to dividend. This
would admit of the payment of 2s. 6d. per share, clear of
income tax, upon the present capital stock of the com-
pany, cemprisieg 87,900 shares, which exceeded the
number of shares on which the last dividend was paid by
15.900. There had been a diminution in the passenger
traffic, as compared with the corresponding period
of 1847. Irrespective of the cause which had of late
affected this as well as other railways, the unfavourable
state of the weather during the summer, and the cir-
cumstance that only one line had been in operation during
the last three months, would account for the decrease.
From the report of the engin, er laid before the last
meeting, the directors fully expected that the adaptation
of the main line to the locomotive system of corking
would have been completed before the end of the year.
During the progress of the works, however, various im-
pediments presented themselves, and it was no! until the
close of the year that the alterations on one line were
finished. The Commissioners ef Ralways having in-
spected the works, sanctioned the opening of the altered
line, which, with the extension line, would, in due course,
have commenced working on the Ist of January, but
some difficulties respecting the use, of locomotive en-
gines on the main line, which, by the company's Acts,
were required to he approved by her Majesty's Commis-
sioners of Woods and Forests, caust d a further delay.
The directors repeat their conviction that there would
be a consid rable saving in the working expenses
under the locomotive, as compared with the sta-
tionary engine system, and from a recent and
careful review of the subject, they had no doubt that
both the extension line, se far as the traffic to Bow was
concerned, and the main line, would be worked for two-
thirds of the Cost hitherto of the main line only.
A joint station was now in course of construction at the
junction of the Eastern Counties Railway with the
Blackwell Extension line. As soon as it was competed
arrangements would be carried out for running the trains
in conjunction with those on the Eastern Counties line,
and the directors entertain no doubt that the advantage
derived by the public would cause a considerable and
gradually increasing traffic to flow to and from our City
terminus through this channel. As the powers for
widening the line from Stepney to Fenchurch-street, an
Act for which was obtained in the session of 1846,
would expire in July next, the directors had deemed it
prudent to direct that an application be made to Parlia-
ment for an extension of the time for carrying into effect
the powers given by that Act. As a vacancy in the di-
rection having been caused by the retirement of Dr.
Bowring, the directors had, under the power vested la
them by the Act of Parliament, elected Thomas Alcock, ,
Esq., M.P., to supply his place, which election they feel
confident would meet with the approbation of the share'
holders. On the present occasion Messrs. Lee and
Bishop went out of office by rotation, bat being eligible
for re-election they offered themselves accordingly.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report.
congratulated the proprietors upon their having et
length got rid of the old and expensive system of sta-
tionary engines. The alteration had cost them much;
but when he remembered that charge would reduce the
expenditure one-third, that the saving would enable then
to pay interest upon the capital invested in the extension
without altering their present prosperous condition, be
felt that the money had not been badly laid out.
Besides, the change would enable them to run their loco-
motives on the Eastern Counties lines, and when the
extension and stations were completed there could b°
no doubt whatever that the traffic to Bow would be im-
mensely increased.—(Hear, hear.) The proprietors
were aware that at present they were only working the
northern portion of the line, but they hoped
shortly to open the southern line, and the°
the traffic would be increased, by their being
connected with the Dockhead and the Binning'
ham Junction line, without making any addition
to the expenditure. The object of the directors was to
reduce the expenditure and inorease the traffic, and the
proprietors might rest assured that every means would
be resorted to for the accomplishment of that object.
Mr. SMITH wished to know when the locomotives
wouldcontmence working?
The CHAIRMAN said they were already running.
Mr. SMITH asked if any arrangement bad been come to
with the Eastern Counties for working the joint traffic?
The CHAIRMAN replied there had, but it was andel'
pated shortly that the arrangement would be modified in
their favour.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. SMITH wanted to know what their position would
be in the event of the Eastern Counties repudiating tb.
arrangement? _

The CHAIRMAN did not anticipate any such rupture.
Mr. JENNINGS said he was a large proprietor in the
Eastern Counties, and at the next meeting he would inr
press upon his fellow shareholders the importance of
being on good terms with this company.
After some further diicussions, the report was adopted,
and the dividend declared payable immediately.
The retiring directors were then reelected, and
thanks having been voted to the Chairman the meetin%
broke up.
