44s 6d to 53s 6d, for low to very fine yellow, and a small por-
tion of white at 54s 6d to 575, which prices are about on a
par with the reduction noticed on other sorts. All the Cuba,

mid greyish to tine yellow. The only transactions which

BAINBRIDGE V. BADDELZY.—JUDGMENT.
The MASTER OF TIIE ROILS gave judgment in this case
day, which was argued before his Lordship a short time since
upon a demurrer put in by the defendant to the plaintiff's
amended Bill. The Bill was filed for the purpose of obtain-
ing the direction of the Court for the trial of certain issues
for the purpose of ascertaining whether the will of a testator
named Bainbridge, which was made in 1818, was valid or
not, it being contended that the will was of no effect, inas-
much as the testator was insane at the time of making it.
To this Bill a demurrer was put in by the defendant, on the
ground of want of equity. His Lordship ordered the de-
murrer to be allowed.
