case, overruling all the exceptions to the Master's re-

WOOD V. TAIINTON.—JUDGMENT.
The MASTER of the ROLLS also gave judgment in this
cese, which, came before him a short time since upon
motion on behalf of the plaintiff, to compel the defendant
to sign a cheque, and hand it over to the plaintiff.
The matter in difference between tho parties were, it
appeared, made the subject of arbitration, and an award
was made by the arbitrator in favour of the plaintiff, and
the object of the motion was to compel obedience to that
award. On the motion coming on before the Court, a
preliminary objection was taken to it, on the ground
that the Court wculd not act upon the award, inasmuch
as it had not been made a rule of Court; and
upon that preliminary objection the Master of
the Roils now gave judgment. His Lordship
was of opinion upon the authorities that the motion
might be sustained, although the award had not been
made a rule of Court. The motion must therefore stand
over till the first day of Easter Term.

IN RE SAVERY.-JUDGMENT.
In this case his Lordship was of opinion that the
examination was insufficient, and gave further time to
put in a mere sufficient examination.

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
Ou the jury being called very few jurors were in
attendance, and it was intimated that an " example "
would be made of the absentees. On the jury being
made up it was found there was no cause to try, the
attornies not being present. After a lapse of a quarter
of an hour the jury were dis.2harged, and asked whether
they were not to be paid for their attendance.
Mr. Hudson the officer of the Court replied in the
negative, but observed that attending on these juries
prevented greater inconvenience, as the jurors were
exonerated frOm serving in the superior Courts and the
Central Criminal Court for three years.

MA RLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
Susannah Price, a woman of the town, was charged
with annoying several gentlemen in the public street.
and John Gordon, a captain in the army, was also
charged with attempting to rescue the prisoner from the
custody of the police constable.
Chatfield, 302 A, stated that this morning about half-
put one o'clock he was on duty in Oxford-street, when
he saw the female prisoner go up to two gentlemen and
lay hold of them. .They pushed her away and refused
to speak to her. Witness wont up to her and requested
her to go away. She then walked away, and when she got
as far as Argylle-street she went up to another gentle-
man. Witness then took her in charge. Ho had got
as far as Beak. street, Regent-street, when she refused
to proceed any further. He then gently pushed her for-
ward when the defendant Gordon came up and asked
witness what the woman was charged with. Witness
refused to satisfy him, when he said he was an officer in
the army, and he (witness) should not take the woman
any further unless witness gave him a satisfactory
answer. Witness told him he should take him to the
station if he did not be off. Defendant then took hold
of the woman's shoulder and prevented witness from
taking her away. Another constable then came up and
witness directed him to take defendant into custody.
Mr. HARDWICK discharged the woman, and asked the
defendant what answer he h sd to make to the charge.
Captain Gordon said, he begged to state, on the word
of a gentleman, that he did not touch the woman at all.
He should not ;have interfered had not the constable
handled the woman in a very rough and unbecoming
manner. He merely asked the constable the cause of
his treating the woma❑ in such a manner, when ho an-
swered him in a very insolent manner.
Mr. HARDWICk said, he strongly deprecated the con-
duct of defendant, but, as it did not appear that he had
used any violence, he should fine him in the mitigated
penalty of 10s7.
The money was immediately paid.
