LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, NOVEMBER 23.
ROPER v. WILLIAMS AND OTHERS.--INJUNCTION.

The plaintiff was grantor of certain building leases in
well, Middlesex ; the defendant, Williams, was grantee, and
re-granted leases to the other defendants. The case had come
into the Vice-Chancellor's Court in the form of a petition, for
an Injunction to restrain some of the defendants from carrying
on certain buildings, on the ground that they violated the con-
ditions of the original lease. All the leasees became defend-
ants against the prayer of the petition. After three successive
discussions in different forms, his Honour had granted an In-
junction. Application was now made to the, Lord Chancellor
to dissolve the Injunction.
Messrs. AGAR and ROUPELL appeared for Mr. Williams,
Messrs. SHADWELL and TEMPLE, for the other defendants.
Messrs. HORNE and SPENCE appeared for the plaintiff.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, he would read all the affi-
davits, and give his judgment on Monday morning. At pre-
sent the case did not appear to him to be a case for an Injunc-
tion. Here buildings had been carried on for years, in viola-
tion of the conditions of the grant, and then application came
to be made for an injunction against one particular builder. He
would have said to such an applicant, " Go to law; you have
no case for equity." If nine buildings were suffered to be
erected contrary to certain conditions, he would not grant
an Injunction to restrain from building the tenth in the
same form. Certainly, the allegation that a skittle.ground was
to be formed behind the building, would be no reason for
granting an Injunction.
Mr. SHADWELL.—Then the Injunction is dissolved.
The Lonn CHANCELLOR.—I shall read the affidavits, and
give judgment on Monday.
This case occupied the Court the whole day.
CONVENIENT SPEED—FORTHWITH IN CHANCERY.

Application was made to his Lordship to hear exceptions to
the Master's Report " with convenient speed.".
The LORD CHltNCELLOß.—Convenient speed means after
all the other cases which claim consideration are disposed of.—
I have known an instance where money NV3sprdered to be paid
into Court "forthwith," and that meant, in tact, at the end of
19 years.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 23.
BLANCHARD v. TILE EAST INDIA COMPANY.

Mr. HORNE begged to call the attention of the Court to this
case, the circumstances of which became more extraordinary
every hour. In consequence of what passed yesterday, Mr.
Blanchard immediately proceeded, with the concurrence of the
East India Company, to contract with the Captain of the Mel-
pomene for the passage of the Lascars to India. It was stated
on affidavit, that whilst Mr. Blanchard was on board the vessel,
Mr. Baxter came there, and making use of violent imprecations
and language, dared him to send the Lascars away. Ile also
told the Lascars that Mr. Blanchard intended to sell them as
slaves, and actuatly desired them to resist if it were attempted
to send them on board. The consequence was that the men
were in a state of mutiny. It was impossible to account for the
conduct of Mr. Baxter, unless by supposing that he was in.
sane.

Mr. BELL, on the part of the East India Company, stated
that his clients were extremely desirous that the Lascars should
be returned to India, because, as his Honour might have per-
celVed by the newspapers, these men, who' were very ignorant,
were easily excited to riot, and committed the most dreadful
excesses.

The VicE-CHATcEtton-11ave the men refused to go on
board ?

Mr. HonxE.—Yes, Sir; and as thei only form a part of a
body of 2,000 under the Care of the East India Company, a
general mutiny is apprehended.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR.—What can I do ?

Mr. Hoax E.-I feel it difficult to suggest any course. If
Mr. Baxter's Counsel had been here, the Court might perhaps
have heard some explanation of that Gentleman's conduct.
The VICE-Cifaxem.f.oa.—lf it be true that Mr. Baxter is
acting in the manner described, he is exposing himself to a very
different jurisdiction from that exercised by this Court. You
must have recourse to a criminal Court.

Mr. HORNE.—The East India Company, are empowered by
Act of Parliament to take care of these men ' • but they doubt
whether they are authorized to oppose force to force if it should
become necessary.
The VicE-CHANCELLOR.—I cannot restrain Mr. Baxter
from committing a crime. You must seek your remedy at law.
