HEARDSON V. WILLIAMSON.

This was a bill filed for the specific performance of a con-
tract entered into by the defendant, under the decree of the
Court. The objection urged by the defendant to the com-
pletion of his agreement arose from a defect of title on the
part of the plaintiff, who claimed under a devise in a will.
Mr. PEMBERTOINI appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
TINNEY for the defendant.
The MASTER of the ROLLS said that lie should make
the decree as prayed.

COMMON PLEAS.-WEDNESDAY.

CORNE V. PETTIT.

This was an auction brought to recover compensation
in damages for certain slanderous words spoken by defen-
dant of plaintiff, who is the Dissenting minister of Ebenezer.
Chapel, in Church-lane, Whitechapel, whereby he was in-
jured in his character, and had sustained considerable loss
and damage from the falling off in the numbers of his con-
gregation,and the consequent diminution of his emoluments,
which arise from the voluntary contributions of the congre-
gation.

...
Mr. TURNER appeared as Counsel for the plaintiff.
Mr. Sergeant WILDE addressed the Jury for the dc.
fendant.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE charged the Jury, who found
for the defendant.

EXCHEQUER COURT.

sIIERLEY v. COX.

This was a bill filled to establish the right of the plain-
tiff, the Vicar of Sherley, in Derbyshire, to certain tithes
on wood under the Act of 1832. Mr. Beauclerk was
beard on the part of the plaintiff, and Mr. Simpkinson for
the defendant. The question really at issue was, whether
the tithes of wood were actually due (if claimable) to the
Rector or the Vicar. In support of the latter position, a
mass of documentary evidence was read, to show that the
parish consists of the township of Sherley, containing 1,600
acres of land, of which number 140 were wood land, which
lands were rectory lands ; the Vicar receiving the tithes
great and small. Search was made for the endowment, but
none had been found.
Mr. SIMPKINSON, for the defendant, contended that the
present bill, which was infliction enough upon the defend-
ant, would probably be followed by a suit at law. He de-
nied that the Vicar was entitled to any tithes on wood
which had not been demanded, nor had one claim been
made for tithes, even when a great felling of wood had been
made. Besides, the plaintiff had produced no evidence in
support of his claim.
'Mr. Baron ALDERSON thought that, to settle the ques-
tion, an issue must be directed, and that the bill must be
dismissed, so far as related to wood.tithe, without costs.

lightly interested. At last sonic inquirer asked their object—
