VICE-CHAN CERY.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before Vice-Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.)
DAWSON v. BRINCIEMAN.
His HONOUR delivered judgment in this case this
morning, which was a suit to compel the specific per-
formance of a contract entered into between the plaintiff
and the defendant for the purchase by the latter of a
piece of land and a mansion situated in the vicinage of
Windsor Forest. Since the contract for purchase it had
become matter of great doubt whether the mansion in
question stood upon land which was of copyhold or free-
hold tenure, and in consequence of that incertitude on
that part of the title, the defendant bad refused to com-
plete the purchase. His Honour decreed that the de-
fendant was to complete the specific performance of the
contract entered into between the parties in September,
1847, but subject to the terms of an agreement also
entered into between them in April, 1848.
His Honour the Vice-Chancellor Wigram was occu-
pied during the morning in bearing short causes, none
of which afforded any materials of public interest to
justify a detailed report.

SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY, 11.30 A.m..--The Havre
cotton market yesterday was somewhat animated. Sales
to two o'clock, 1,100 bales; prices, however, 1 fraiie
lower than last quotations. A fair amount of business
done in coffee, bides, and rice. Prices firm with slight
advance on the latter article. The Zurich sailing• packet
arrived from New York last evening with dates to the
24th of February.
DEATH OF COLONEL HOLME MauDE.--This gen-
tleman, for many years so well known in conmxion
with the militia service of this country, died on the 23d
inst., aged 79.

MONEY and COMMERCIA L NEWS,
CITY, QUARTER TO Ift IiEE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were about
' 8,000 bales, including 1,000 for export and speculation.
Prices were without alteration,—ln Railway ts'hart:s
better feeling existed, and a slight improvement in some
instances occurred.
Referring to the state of the Railway Share Market
here, we may notice the heavy condition of the Eastern
Counties line, and the general impression that its affairs
are in an unwholesome state. What may be the real
state of the case we are unable to say, further
than that a thorough investigation is going forward, and
that important changes will be suggested in the line.
All are anxious to know whether there will be a divi-
dend, but according to private calculations there should
certainly not be ss. 6d. We have no doubt but that it
is this Eastern Counties affair which presses upon the
Railway Market generally, and until this and the New-
castle and Berwick mystery is cleared up, people will be
shy in making investments.
The Chester and Holyhead Railway proprietors
are now assembled, and a shareholder, in opposition
to the directors, has circulated a letter im-
pugning their management, and censuring them
on the following, among numerous other grounds,
which we hope may be satisfactorily explained
(re the meeting concludes, and for the details of which
reference may be made to another column, and a later
edition of The Sun. The directors are blamed:—
" Ist. For positively informing you, many times, that
250,0001. would be sufficient for crossing the Menai
Straits, whereas 600,0001. will be insufficient.
" 2d. For bringing prominently into notice the con-
tracts which were under your engineer's estimate, and
never noticing the contracts which were above his
estimate.
"3d. In having held out the promise that the original
capital of 2,100,0004 would be amply sufficient for the
construction of the railway, whereas 4,500,0004 will not
suffice.
" 4th. For deluding you with the prospect of a 6 per
cent. dividend on your original shares, whereas you will
get no dividend at all.
" sth. For appropriating in some way not yet explained
the deposit of 31,5001., said to be paid to the Cheshire
and Shropshire Railway.
" 6th. For appropriating a sum of 51,350/. to the con-
struction of the Mold Railway, beyond what was sanc-
tioned by the shareholders.
" 7th. Fur having advised you to give the Government
200,000/. or 51. per share, which, as tar as your interests,
originalsOl. shareholders, are concerned, is thrown into
the sea, in every sense of the expression."
The eighth charge is that preference shares have
been created, at 5f per cent., and not applied to the use
intended, and the other allegations we have not room to
enter into, trusting that the shareholders themselves
will seek the requisite explanations in this as in other

The accounts from Hamburgh are not altogether
tranquillising in regard to the Danish question. The
preparations for war continue, and although we have seen
half-te dozen letters written by usually well-informed
parties to their firms in London, we are positively as
little able to form an opinion as before. We believe the
truth to be, however, that the first intimation of peace
will be made in London, where the negotiations are ac-
cording to all accounts very actively progressing.
There was a demand last Tuesday for bills at long date
on England.
The Sardinian news still occupies much attention, and
although a little difficulty may be experienced in bring-
about au accommodation, there is no particular appre-
hension.
The Dee steamer is not yet telegraphed. She is sup-
posed to have stopped at Bermuda, and to have had more
adverse winds even than we can judge of by what has
been experienced here.
The Funds have further improved this morning. Con.
sols have been up to 92k i for tramfer, though since
91i to 92. Time bargains have been effected at 92 to
924, Excht quer- bills are 375. to 40s. premium. India

The Foreign Securities have been very quiet. Spanish
Three per Cents. abuut 291 to 304, and Portuguese
Four per Cents. 274 to 2811. Mexican have ranged from

The Railway Share Market is decidedly better, and
there is an encouraging rally in the Great Western,
Brighton, North-Western, Midland, Caleuoniau, and
Hudson's lines.
The foreign lines are improving, and East Indian have
been done at li to 24 premium.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
The total arrival of English Wheat for our market,
this week, coastwise, has not exceeded 1,630 quarters.
To.day, the show of samples of both Red and White
was small, yet the demand for all kinds of Wheat of
home produce was in a very dull state, at Monday's
quotations. Nearly 20,000 quarters of Foreign Wheat
have come to hand. This large supply had a dull effect
upon the trade. In prices, however, we have no change
to notice. The arrival of Foreign Barley has been
19,880 quarters. That of English was small. All kinds
of Barley ruled, dull arid grinding samples were lower
to purchase. Malt was very dull in sale, and somewhat
lower to purchase. There have arrived, this week, up-
wards of 66,000 quarters of Oats. The Oat trade was,
conrquently heavy, at a decline cf Is. per quarter, at
which several large parcels were disposed of. Beans,
Peas, and all other articles were almost nominal.
