T A TTERSALL'S--YESTERDAY.
The room was more fully attended yesterday than we
have known it for some wesks, and business was corres-
pondingly brisk. Palamon maintained his position as first
favourite, and was backed by three or four parties
at 16 to 1 ; a point more was offered in one quar-
ter, but it was within a few minutes of the cles.',
and not until the majority of the subscribers had
left; Erirrgo and Coronation were about equal
vourites, and were in more frequent demand. Ralph and
Camclion were also bicked, but did not undergo and
change. The moat hulking instance was in the lic,salic
colt, against whom the biddiligs reached 25 to 1 ; a St la:
few, however, bore up with great energy, and at that figu.e
la d out several kundied pounds ; one party laid 30 to 1
to 50 pounds, but the fair market price at the close was
as we hive StLted it below, 9to 2 was laid two or three
times agst. Scott's lot, and 33 to 1 agst Knight of the
Whir-
tie, and 30 to 1 in hundreds agst Marshal Soult ; the last
011'111 agains! liach were not so high by three or four points.
The Duke of Wellington was mentioned at an improved
price, and the odds quoted against Knightsbridge, Bcn
Brace, Mustapha, and Muley, found willing takers. 3.500
to 1,000 was betted against Mongolian, and 40 to 45, and 50
to 1, agst The Nob. A few other alterations arose, but
none of sufficient importance to call for any observation.

LA W thTLLLIGENCE.

ROLLS' COURT, Jay. 25.

STEADMAN V. MORGAN—JUDGME:CT.
The only point reserved in this case was as to costs,

The llF►sTra of the Rol.ts, on corning into Court this morning,
stated that he had looked into the funcnded bill for the purpose of
seeing whether what was stated in the answer to the amended bill
formed a sufficient ground fur giving costs against the defendant.
The case, his Lordship observed, was somewhat singular. The plain.
tiff claimed In the character of a legitimate child. The deleddant.in his
tirst answer admitted him to be such, hut stated in the answer that
the suit was unnecessary. The plaintiff then amended the bill, and
stated circumstances which in his view rendered the suit necessary;
but at the same time distictly interrogated the defendant whether
or uo the marriage was a good marriage, and if not for what
reason. Then the defendant in his second answer answered
that, and put the plaintiff to prove that which had been before ad..
wilted. Considering, therefore, that the interrogatory called upon
him to say, why the marriage was not valid, and to explain the cir.
eunistances, hi Lordship would make no special order as to costs.
