LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 15.
DE BEAUVOIR v. RHODES.

The LORD CHANCELLOR resumed the judgment upon
which he.had entered on Saturday, and pronounced his opi-
nion, that upon the statement of facts as contained in the plead-
ings, he could not invalidate the lease in question. At the
same time he gave the parties to understand that his convic-
tion was, Ahat the real facts as they had been represented in the
course of the argument so far differed from the statement of
them in the pleadings, that he would not object to the motion
for a re-hearing, with leave to tile fresh affidavits, or, if the
parties preferred, they might take an issue at law to try the
question. His own inclination was not favourable to the com-
mon law trial of it, because he had found by experience that
questions of this nature, which comprized the consideration of
fraud in obtaining the deed, were seldom or ever tried in a sa-
tisfactory manner before a Jury.

DEVAVNES V. NOBLE.

The argument upon this case, which we described yester-
day, was resumed, and took up the rest of the sittings.—
The points are of nice practice in the administration of the
bankrupt law, but of too professional a kind to be interesting to
any but parties concerned.

" VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 13.
MOEKHOUSE V. ADAmTHWAITE.
This was a suit instituted by the plaintiff to compel a ape
cific performance on the part of the defendant, of a contract
for the purchase of certain land near Appleby.
Mr. HEALD and Mr. I.EMOYNE, on the behalf of the
plaintiff, stated, that the premises had been put up to auction,
and that, according to a custom prevalent in Westmoreland
and Cumberland,:two persons were employed to raise the bid-
dings' to a certain amount. That the sale was conducted in
this manner, and that a person employed by the plaintiff bid
for the estate, while another also employed by him was to bid
occasionally, so as to prevent the property being bought in at a
low sum, lest that circumstance might have a prejudicial effect
on any future sale. Dr. Adamthwaite was desirous of be.
corning the purchaser, and commissioned a person to bid for
him to the amount of 600/. When the sale had reached this
price, the agent went again to Adamthwaite, and was com-
missioned by him to bid up to 1300/. lie did so, and at this
period Dr. Adamthwaite himself entered from an adjoining
room, and bid 800 guineas for the property, at which sum he
was declared the purchaser. • Soon after the sale the defendant
objected to complete his purchase on several grounds. lie
complained that the price had been unfairly raised against him
by puffers, he being the only real bidder ; that the property
was not of the value described, and that he, the defendant
was in a state of intoxication at the time he purchased. Some
attempts were made at a compromise, but they all failed, and
subsequently this suit was instituted. The plaintiff contended,
that lie had done no more in empolying puffers than he had a
right to do, in order to prevent the disparagement of his pro-
perty, and that their biddings had no effect in raising the price
unfairly, because it had always been resolved by him that the
estate should not be sold for less than 8001., and the agent of
the defendant had actually bid this sum before the defendant
himself offered that price at which the estate was knocked down
to him. With respect to the statement of the defendant's
being intoxicated, and which was stated to be in consequence
of the people at the sale having delayed it very unnecessarily,
and in the mean time handed about a plentiful supply of liquor ;
this was met by the reply, that if the defendant really was tipsy
it was his own fault, for that he was sitting during the sale in
an adjoining, room, where whatever he drank was at his own
expence. The difference between the description of the pro-
perty in the particulars of sale and its actual condition was.also
denied.
Mr. SUGDEN and Mr. LoVATT, for the defendant, con-
tended, that this was a sale of which a. court of equity could not
decree the completion. From the evidence of the person's em-
ployed as pufters, it appeared that one of them, .of the name
of Hammond, had been. instructed to bid up to the sutn of
600/., and that afterwards he was requested to raise the price
up to 8001. He did continue bidding, and as he was a person
