This action was brought to recover penalties against the de-
fendant for bribery at the Camelford election. At the trial, a
verdict was found the defendant, on the ground that there was
no proof that the offence, if committed at all, was committed
in Middlesex, where the venue was laid.
Mr. Pitt, the plaintiff; now appeared in person to move for a
new trial on several grounds. He was heard by the Court at
great length, but failed to shew that any evidence
given (Jr offered of the bribery in Middlesex. The Court, there-
fore, refused the rule. was either

brought out, at this Theatre, without the consent of the plaintiff;
or the author; a Tragedy, entitled Marino Faller°, written by
Lord Byron, and published by the 'plaintiff, who-Obtained a°
injunctiori(afterwards dissolved) to restrain the representation
of the Tragedy.
The LORD CHANCELLOR wished to have the opinion
this Court upon this point—Could the plaintiff maintain all
action at law, under all the circumstances, against the de-
fondant ?
Mr. SbattLETT contended that the plaintiff could- main-
tain an action.
Mr. ADOLPIIII it, on the other side, contended, that if the
plaintiff could maintain such an article (which he submitted
'could not be maintained), he could maintain an action against
any person who aright read the work to any number-of his
friends.
- The CHIEF JUSTICE.—The Court will certify its *ion
to the Lord Chancellor.

Customs at' Dover; and 'the trespass complained a ivasu
seizure made by him of a telescope, in consequence ef tr
plaintiff having refused to pay a demand of 3d. per ton for
harbour duty.
Mr. BOLLAND, for the plaintiff; contended, that the v.--
was in the service of his Majesty, and therefore exempt froT
the duty in question, under the sth section of the Act of 31w
George M.
Mr. CHITTY contended that the duty was payable by the
vessel in question, as she was only partially employed by the
Post-office.
The COURT, referring to the words of the Act of Palle-
Ment, had no doubt the vessel was exempt from paying tbe
duty.-Judgment for the plaintiff. '

the admission of the allegation, which had been given in Sr.,'
after the commencement of the suit. After the matter P'

Sir CHRISTOPHER ROBINSON decided that it was lair-.
sible for him to interfere on this occasion. The allegation 11:
question had been already admitted by the Court's learned Pt7l,
decessor (Lord Stowell)., and Mr. A. Chichester havink°}lviag
last Court day, been assigned to appear absolittely, and cp..
given that appearance, the principal cause must now be P.lr,,
ceeded in. If Mr. Chichester felt the admisslon to be a glut

he (Sir C. Robinson) did not think that he should be warrai:gilo
in interfering with the decision which the Learned Judge, t.
had occupied that chair before him, had given on subjec •
