SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY•)

(Before Mr. Under. Sheriff BURCHELL.)
PENNELL AND OTHERS V. YOUNG AND OTHERS.
The plaintiffs are the assignees of Messrs. Burton, Wl°
were formerly extensive builders and railway contror
tors; defendants were also builders in the Kent-road; CO
recover the sum of 521.

On the part of the plaintiffs it was proved that the
defendants had admitted the debt, and offered a comPo*
sition of ss. in the pound, which was refused.
A verdict was given for the full amount.
HAYWARD V. BOLTON.

This was an action to recover the sum of 141. 55.,;
defendant denied the debt, except to the amount of
71. Bs. 9d., which was paid into court, and 5L ss. for
commission on sale of a carriage.
The facts were these:—ln November last plaintiff'
who is an ironmonger, and had a claim against de'
fendant, bargained for a carriage for 1001. in liquid!:
Lion of an overdue account. The carriage was no:
finished at the time, but when it was completed plaintiff.
requested defendant to sell it for him. It was advertised
for sale, but after several months was not sold. Plaintio
then himself obtained a customer, and the main feature
in the case was whether the defendant was entitled t°
claim for the standing and commission, the carriage
having been first sold by him to plaintiff, but never
having been removed, and eventually sold to a person
sent by plaintiff, but who bought on the recommeedly'
Lion of defendant.
Mr. Hayfing of the Bazaar in Portman street, gel.
evidence as to the custom. He considered the plaintiff
entitled for standing and commission.
Mr. THOMAS contended that under the circumstance!
it could not be considered that the carriage had been
left for sale on commission.
Mr. NATHAN, in reply, said the custom was clear, till!
„Bight et
if a carriage was once sold, and the purchaser
any time have had it, if he chose to sell again, he was
liable to the usual charges of commission; at all eventh
in this case, the defendant was clearly entitled to the
charge for the standing (1!. 12s. 6d.).
The UNDER-SHERIFF said, the jury might perhaps
think the defendant entitled to one and not the other.
There had not been any evidence called by plaintiff to
disprove the custom, as stated on the part of the dr.
fendant.
The jury gave a verdict for defendant.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
James Loehlturst, who holds a superior situation $ll
clerk in the Post office, was brought up on remand, be
fore Mr. Hall, charged with stealing a letter containing
one shilling, the property of the Postmaster-General'
" which came into his hands by virtue of his office."
Mr. Peake, the chief-constable attached to the Poo"
office department, observed the prisoner on Wednesday
of last week tearing up a piece of paper, and seill';
tering the fragments with some care in different parts(/'
the great hall in St. Martin's- le- Grand. The prisoner that
joined a lady who was apparently waiting there for hip'
and noticing at the moment that Peake was near hivi'
he said to her, "Come and I will show you our foreign
department." He then went up stairs with her, and th:
officer immediately collected the fragments of paper
scattered by the prisoner, and on putting them together
he found them to be the pieces of a letter, which calve
into the prisoner's hands for that morning's distributioo•
and which had contained one shilling,
The letter and its enclosure were this morning proved
to have been sent from the cook in the family of gr;
Perry, at Hasler Hospital, Portsmouth, and were trace
to the prisoner's office.
He was committed for trial.
