EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

DYER V. GREEN.

This cause, which was in part heard yesterday, was an
action brought under the Interpleacier Act, to recover back
the possession of some goods, alleged to have been wrong-
fully taken in execution.
On the part of the plaintiff, it was stated that he had pur.
chased the goods in question, and produced in support
thereof a bill of sale, to which was annexed a schedule of the
articles purchased. Witnesses were also called to prove the
purchase and sale of the goods.
An objection was taken to the schedule of the goods, on
the ground that it was not stamped.
Mr. WATSON, for the plaintiff; contended that there was no
necessity for stamping the schedule, and that it was a
sufficient compliance with the Stamp Act if the documet,t
were annexed to the bill of sale, that having been properly
stamped.
The LORD CHIEF BARON said it was clear the verdict must
be for the defendant, the plaintiff having failed to make out
his case ; it was absurd and ridiculous to contend that the
requisitions of the Stamp Act had been complied with.
Mr. WATSON—That is not language which I have been in
the habit of hearing addressed to me from the bench, upon
arguments which I may have occasion to address to the jury
on behalf of my clients ; and it is unfair to the interest of the
plaintiff for your Lordship to make use, of such expressions.
The LORD CHIEF BARON—What I said referred only to
the legal point in dispute, and had no reference to the merits
of the cause, he hoped the Learned Counsel would therefore
be satisfied with that explanati,n.
Verdict for the defendant accordingly.
DOYLE V. RICIIARDSON.

A rule having been obtained in this cause during the last
sittings, Mr. Knowles appeared to show cause against the
rule.

The plaintiff' was a bookseller and stationer, carrying on
an extensive Indian busimss, and brought his action to re-
cover a sum for books and publication: supplied to the use of
the Agra Akbar, and Indian journals, by the order of the
defendant, the editor of the Mining Chronicle, who was now
sued for the amount of the goods supplied, the defendant
alleging that the books were to be sent to India, and that
the bill for payment was to be sent to the defendant, who
upon the trial denied his liability, contending that he was
only to be the medium through which the payment was to
be made.

It was finally arranged that the clerk to the plaintiff
should attend before their Lordships at their private room
on Saturday morning at ten o'clock, and produce all the
books kept by the plaintiff in which any entry was made
relative to the transaction in question.

COMMON PLEAS-(THIS DAY.)

BLAKE V. PIIINN.

Mr. CHADWICK JONES moved for a rule to enter a non-
suit in this case, which was tried during the last Middlesex
sittings after term, beeore Mr. Justice Coltman. The action
arose out of the bargain for a public-house. The plaintiff
bargained with the defendant for the house in question, and
paid a deposit of 54/. 19s. 2d. Subsequently the plaintiff ob-
jected to the title as bad, and not receiving his deposit
money back, he brought his action and got a verdict for
the amount. The point now rested on the validity of the
title.

The court reserved their decision till they had consulted
Mr. Justice Coltman.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS D►AY.)
George Abbot who has been several times remanded on a
charge of stealing a quantity of miscellaneous property from
Lincoln's Inn' Hall, where he acted as stoker, was again
brought before the magistrate (Mr. Henry) this morning,
but as there was no further evidence ready, tl:e case was not
entered into at any length. _

Mr. lIENny remanded the prisoner till Wednesday next,
observing that if Mr. Inspector Pearce (who has conducted
the case) was not then prepared to complete the evidence,
he would commit the prisoner for trial on the case as it
stood.

It was intimated that several witnesses would be produced
who had not hitherto appeared, and that it wis expected
that the prosecutor's watch would be found and produced.

MARLBROi-STREET-(THIS DAY).
William Spencer was chargd with driving a ginger-beer
cart furiously in Berners-street last night, and with running
the shaft of the cart about fourteen hiches into the slullid,l
of a cab horse.

Witnesses were called, who deposed to the defendant
being drunk at the time, and that he had sufficient warning
from the cab-driver to have pulled up or driven out of the
way. The damage could not be estimated this morning on
account of the very doubtful issue of the injury done to the
horse.

Mr. 1-lAnnwicK fined him forty shillings for furious
driving, and left it open to the cab-proprietor to sue the
()liner of the cart by action for damages.
