COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)

THE BANK OF ENGLAND V. ANDERSON AND OTHERS.
Mr. MAULS concluded his reply in this case this morning.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said that the Court would
take time to consider the case before giving their opinion.

EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

BRIXTON COURT OF REQUESTS ACT.
HAMLEY V. HUTTON.
Mr. BAYLEY showed cause against a rule obtained on a
former day by Mr. Gale, to enter a suggestion on the re-
cord, so as to deprive the plaintiff of costs under the 46th
Geo. HI., chap. 88, establishing a Court of Requests for
the Western Division of the Hundred of Brixton. It ap-
peared that the plaintiff and defendant were both resident
within the county of Middlesex when the debt which
formed the subject of the action was contracted, but that
the defendant afterwards went to reside at Tooting-lane,
within the jurisdiction of the Court. The Learned Coun-
sel contended that the statute only referred to debts
arising within the jurisdiction, and where both plain-
tiff and defendant were resident, otherwise there would
be a failure of justice, as the Commissioners had no power
to enforce distress for costs against the plaintiff when
he happened to reside out of the jurisdiction. The Judges
of common Pleas, in the case of Dillamore v. Capon, 1
Bing., had put the construction now contended for upon
the Southwark and East Brixton Act, which was in its
terms very nearly similar to the statute under consideration,
and that case was now mainly relied upon
The COURT was of opinion that the words of the statute
clearly brought the defendant within the jurisdiction, even
when the plaintiff resided elsewhere, and made the rule ab-
solute, so depriving the plaintiff of his costs.

COURT OF REVIEW.-(THIS DAY.)

IN RE BUTLER, A BANKRUPT.
Mr. Twiss on behalf of a creditor, Mr. D. Groucbie,
whose case came before the Court on a former day, stated
that an arrangement had taken place between the parties,
with the consent of the assignees, whereby the petitioner,
his client, was allowed to prove under the commission for
the sum of 4851. advanced by him to the bankrupt. What
he now wished for was a rule to that effect, and ho might
be allowed the costs of the petition out of the estate.
The COURT could not grant the costs of the petition.
Let Mr. De Grouchie pay his own, and allow the costs of
opposing it to be defrayed out of the estate, the assignees

POOLE.-THURSDAY. rvi

;7:

`~~.:r

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Z Vgk.4,
Sir,—l have just seen a paragraph in the renegade T
respecting the state of the two political- parties in I°-;1.0,1
place ; and feeling that such statement may possibly
lead some who are not so well aware as we are here of the
motives for giving publicity to a statement so utterly at
variance with truth, I have taken the liberty, by means of
your widely-circulated journal, to lay before the public the
following statement.

Strange as it may appear, there are not twenty Tories in
Poole ; but there is a party held together by dint of a most
lavish expenditure of money, and the entire sacrifice (by the
leaders) of every moral principle, so repugnant to every
honest mind, that more than our conscientious Tory, rather
than act in any shape with such a combination of all that is
disgraceful, (see the facts proved before a Committee of the
House of Commons on the late Municipal election), have
been fairly driven into the ranks of the Reformers—the
only appropriate name we can find for this party is that of
Tory-Radicals, by which they are known in this place.
At the registration just ended there were eighteen claims
made good, eleven of which were Reformers, five Tory-
Radicals, and two doubtful ; there were also struck off the
list, as published by the overseers, forty-five Tory-Ra-
dicals and only five Reformers. This is the result of the
late registration, on which the party here so much plume
themselves ; but the Reformers of Poole are prepared at
the next election, come when it may, to return their old
and well-proved Members by a triumphant majority.
Now, Sir, a few words on the motives of the party, in
giving publicity to a statement so utterly false as that in
the Times. _ _

The Tory-Radicals of this place have been so many
times defeated, although (according to their own showing) they
had always a certain majority varying from fifty to one hun-
dred, that to procure a candidate who will allow himself to
be made a cat's-paw of, in order to repay some three or
four interested individuals certain largesums of money
which have been by them thrown away, is no easy task ; at
least we take it for granted that Mr. 17-g and Mr. B—r
have both seen enough of the Tory-Radicals of Poole, and
poor General G—t cannot again be made a victim of
by them.
The fact is, the Tory-Radicals, although well aware in
the event of a contest they must be again beaten, as they
ever have been, yet, in order to procure a person who
will come forward to pay their numerous debts, in short, to
be made a stalking-horse of; have again resorted to the re-
petition of those statements which they have invariably
made at the four last contests for this place, at each of
which they have been defeated, as they will be again, pro-
vided they can find another candidate sufficiently soft and
credulous to place himself and his PURSE at their disposal.

CHURCH-RATES POSTPONED.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Norwich, St. George's Colegate, Nov. 17.

SIR—An attempt ha again been made in this parish to
make a Church-rate, but has proved a complete failure. A
vestry meeting was held this morning for that purpose, by
the express command of the Norwich Archdeaconry, and a
more signal defeat I never witnessed. The event has been
exactly what I anticipated in my letter last week a com-
plete and perfect triumph to the Reformers. Not a single
individual could be found who would support the rate.
There were two or three persons wl.o came for that pur-
pose, but when they saw the numbers that were opposed
to them, they very prudently withdrew before the proceed-
ings commenced.

Our meeting was honoured by the presence of several
Town Councillors, among whom was Mr. Sheriff Bateman,
Mr. Alderman Marshall, and Mr. John Francis. When
the last meeting was held for the purpose alluded to, I did
think the decided and emphatic manner in which we recorded
our feelings upon that occasion would have been a suffi-
cient demonstration of our strength and of our determina-
tion ; but no, the " powers that be" were determined to
" give us another opportunity of assenting to a rate, and of
re-considering our position ;" but previous to this they
commenced their work of intimidation, by sending letters
to some of the most active opponents of the rate. The
result of this day's :proceedings has shown to them and to
the world how weak and futile were their efforts when op-
posed to the parish of St. George's.
The thunders of the Ecclesiastical Court are utterly
powerless when hurled at the brazen fronts and stubborn
hearts of the men of Colerruate. We will fight the good
fight inch by inch, and will abide the issue of the contest;
and I think our opponents will find eventually that the pa-
rish of St. George's is more than a match for the " Regis..
try-office," though backed by all the pains and penalties
they can bring to their assistance. We do not merely ob-
ject to Church-rates for the sake of avoiding payment—
" it is to assert and maintain a great and important prin-
ciple"—a principle that is supported by reason, justice, and
common sense, and upon this basis we are willing to stand
or fall. There is no lack of religion in the parishioners of
St. George's ; but Christianity is not centered solely in the
Established Church. Our cause is strengthened and sup-
ported by truth, reason, justice, and argument ; our oppo-
nents' by persecution, tyranny, injustice,and intimidation.

H. T.

Mr. Sheriff Bateman was called to the Chair, who opened
the business of the meeting in a neat and pithy address.
Mr. Murray, Churchwarden, proposed a rate of 9d. in the
pound. After which Mr. J. Watts moved the adjourn-
ment of the rate to that day twelvemonths, which was se-
conded by the Rev. J. Brook, and supported by Mr. J.
Francis, Mr. Alderman Marshall, Mr. Riches, and others.
Upon a show of hands every hand was held up for the
amendment, and not one for the rate.

GRAND MASTER for SOUTH WALES.

APPOINTMENT OF PROVINCIAL GRAND MAS-
TER FOR SOUTH WALES, VACANT BY THE
DEATH OF THE LATE SIR C. COLE, K.C.B.
There is no truth in the report of his Grace the Duke
of Beaufort having accepted the above high and honour-
able appointment ; as we can state from undoubted autho-
rity, that his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, Grand
Master of all England, has conferred it upon Mr. Guest,
M.P. for Merthyr Tydvil, and which he has accepted.
Although the Craft disclaim all political feeling in their
selection of officers, still we cannot help congratulating the
Brethren of the Principality upon the appointment of so
liberal and spirited a head to their Society.
