CiESAR BORGIA.—In the new historical romance,
" Cm.ar Borgia," by the popular author of " White
friars," the characters introduced are such as the gene-
ral reader is sure to desire to know, from their promi-
nent position in the history of the eventful times in
which they flourished. First among them is the famous
Pope Alexander VI., with his two. equally celebrated
children, Lucretia and Caesar Borgia—then comes the
imaginary,
illustrious Medici, the future Leo X.—the great Alfonso
of Este, and ancestor of our. own. Royal Line—the ,

The author has evidently lavished the best qualities of

interest either of his previous productions.
THE POTATO DISEASE.--Baron Liebig imagines
the essence of the disease to consist in the conversion of
the albumen, a usual constituent of healthy potatoes,
into caseine, a principle which, by its great instability
of composition, is supposed to cause the potato to pu-
trify rapidly.—The Plough.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, Ncv: 10.
IN THE MATTER OF DYCE SOMBRE, A LUNATIC.
Mr. Roza', upon this case being called on, stated that
some communications had taken place between the par-
ties, but no arrangement bad been come to. Under
these circumstances he had to ask that the case might
stand over to Friday week, which would be the lunatic
petition day.
His LORDSHIP assented to the application.
COMPERTZ V. GOMPERTZ.
This case came before the Court upon an appeal from
the decision of the present Vice-Chancellor of England.
The question in the case was whether under the will of
Solomon Baron Gompertz, made in 1796, his children,
who share under the residuary, took them for life or
' absolutely. It appeared that the testator at his death
had ten children, five sons and five daughters, and
by his will, after dispcsing of part of his pro-
perty, he gave the residue to his children, the sons to
take two parts each, and the daughters one. The terms
in which the residue was given, were " to her children
for life, and after their death to become to their lawful
issue. One of the daughters of the testator, named
Sarah, married a gentleman named Hollinden, and died
without children, and then the question was raised
whether her husband, as her represeetative, was entitlfd
to her part of the residue. A suit IN es instituted for
the purpose or having that question settled, and upon its
being heard before the Vice• Chancellor of England,
his Honour decided that the share of Sarah Hollinden
remained undisposed of, and from that judgment the
present appeal was brought.
Mr. Walker and Mr. Twells appeared in support of
the decree of :he Court below, and
-Mr. James Parker and Mr. Speed were counsel for the
appellant, Mr. Hollinden.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the ar-
guments, gave judgment, affirming the eeeision of the
Court below, and directing the costs to be costs in the
cause.

ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 10.
ROIIINSON V. WALL.
The arguments in this cause were resumed by the
Counsel for the defendants, Messrs., Turner, Roupel,
and Rogers. They occupied the whole day, and bad not
concluded at the rising of the Court at three o'clock.

VICE• CHANCERY COURT, Nov. 10.
(Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR OF ENGLAND.)
His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England took
demurrers, and further directions to-day.
KIRKE V. THE BROMLEY UNION GUARDIANS.
The arguments on this part-heard case, which came
before the Court upon a demurrer, were resumed and
concluded to-day.
The Court ordered the demurrer to be overruled.
LEWIS AND OTHERS V. COOPER AND OTHERS.
This case came before the Court upon a demurrer put
in by the defendants to the plaintiffs' bill. The plaintiffs are
some of the shareholders of a railway that was projected
last year, to be called the South and Midland Railway
Company, and the defendants were some of the directors
of that company. The scheme having been abandoned
the shareholders filed their bill for the purpose of ob-
taining an injunction to restrain the defendants from
taking out of Court the money that bad been paid in
under the provisions of the Act of Parliament. Upon
a motion for that purpose, the Vice-Chancellor of Eng-
land granted an injunction, which was dissolved upon an
application to the Lord Chancellor. The present bill
alleged that the directors had received 99,0001., that out
of that they bad paid certain expenses, together with
55,0001., which they had paid into Court, and that amount
the bill asked the Court to order to be divided amongst
the shareholders. To this bill the directors put a de-
murrer for want of parties.
His llowoua, without calling upon the counsel who
appeared for the plaintiffs, ordered the demurrer to be
overruled.

GRAND JUNCTION CANAL COMPANY V. DIMES.
The arguments in this case occupied the Court the
remainder of the day.
(Before Sir J. Wicasm.)
IN RE BRIGHTON RAILWAY COMPANY.
His HONOUR said he considered with respect to the
petition in this matter, which had been presented yes-
terday, that the trustees had sufficient powers, and con-
sequently that the Court had no right to interfere in
the case.

(Before Sir J. K. BRUCE.)
MORRIS V. MORRIS.

Mr. RooEns, on the part of the defendant, put in an
answer to the original motion in this matter. The
Learned Counsel stated, that by that answer the defend-
ant threw himself on the mercy of the• Court, setting
forth that he was too poor to adopt the necessary
steps before. It appeared further that an
application had been made to the Court in Ireland, and
proceedings understood in that country as writs of eject-
ment had been executed. The application to the Chan-
cery Court in Ireland had been unsuccessful, the Court
refusing to interfere till after the settlement of the ori-
ginal motion which was pending before the Court.
His HONOUR, after hearing the arguments, said—With-
out giving any opinion whatever as to whether the
notice of the defendant in this matter was or was not
correct, or deciding whether he had made sufficient
apology for the delay that he had been guilty of, he
nevertheless considered this motion too late. With
regard to the original motion he thought it more espe•
cialiy belonged to the Court of Chancery in Ireland, and
would, therefore, order it to stand over for the present.

TAYLOR V. COOPER

The object of the plaiiitifiintiii;;;;e was to enforce the
condition of a will of Wiliam Cooper, who bequeathed
to the plaintiff and to William Co )per, the defendant,
freehold house property in Fleur-de-lis-court, as well as
four leasehold houses situate in Tichbourne-str. upon
t -tut, with directions to pay he!rents accruing to his widow
for lite. After her death the testator devis:ll the freehoki

houses to William Cooper absolutely. Ile also have the
leasehold houses to William Cooler, on condition t f
his granting a lease of the Louses in Tichbourne-street

f,,r the remainder of ti.e testator's interest to George
Taylor, at a rent of 5/. per annum. Taylor died in the
lifetime of the widow, and his executor claimed the

lease, which was refused, this refusal being juZitied on
the ground that in the will the object of the testator was
purely to confer a benefit on Taylor himself, and not his
estate.

After hearing the arguments, his HoNoun said, he
considered' that Mrs. Taylor's executor was fairly en-
titled to the under lease which she claimed. However
be did not think he would be justified in giving costs on
either, as the question at issua was one of that nature
which might be equitably raised.
The Court rose at the usual hour.

COURT OF Q UEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 10.

CONSPIRACY-THE QUEEN V. GOBIPERTZ AND OTHERS.

Mr. HILL, Q.C., resumed his address this morning.

lie first addressed himself to the question of the admis-
sability, in legal cases, of unstamped documtnts ; and
quoted the case of Buckstone v. Carlisle, 12th Mason and
Wellerby, p. 226, in support of his argument, that the
use of unstamped documents at the trial rendered the
finding of the jury invalid. In the case referred to,
which was an action for work and labour, the onus of
proof lay in an agreement which was not admitted in
evidence in consequence of its being unstamped, and
therefore the case of the plaintiff fell to the ground. After
briefly glancing at the law relating to stamped docu-
ments, and contending that a document which was pre-
pared without a stamp, but which ought in law to bear a
stamp, was not only invalid but inadmissable in a court of
law ; he proceeded to review the counts of the indictment,
which, he held, were bad, and not proved by the evi-
dence adduced at the trial. The third count divided

itself into two branches—first, that the defendants got
possession of the bills; and, secondly, that their object
was to defraud Captain Rose of the proceeds of them.
Now, Gompertz brought the stamps to Captain Rose,
who signed them, and they were taken away by G orn-
pertz. They never were in Captain Rose's possession;
they never belonged to him at any time and in any
way, whereas the count set forth that the bills had been

takes improperly from him, they having been in his legal
posssssion at the time, and that the act was fraudulent,
and therefore was untenable. He could not, for in-
stance, maintain en action for trespas,. If the
stamps had belonged to him, and the whole
of the documents being in his possession, he
had handed them over as some fraudulent statement,
then such an action might lie. That Captain Rose was
never to have any of the proceeds of the bills, and once
for all, he might state that he never parted with a single
penny of his money ; that it was well known to all the
parties that he had no money to part with ; that he had
no property whatever ; that he had even sold the rever-
sion of his father's estate, in order to pay certain debts,
and he had indicted the defendants for conspiring to
cheat him out of money, whereas 17,0004 found its way
into his pocket out of these transactsons, and not even a
halfpenny was taken from bim—thus sufficiently dis-
tinguishing the case, he thought, from all that had oc-
curred, and all fiat might occur, it was certainly not a
conspiracy to defraud Captain Rose out of anything, but
into something, and the parties who were to be cheated,
if any such intention existed, were those who ad-
vanced money on the ' bills drawn by Captain
Rose. The
The
count was not proved for similar
reasons. The sth specified the conspiracy to
have consisted in cheating Captain Rose out of his
money, which was clearly a misconception, because all
the world knew that Captain Rose had no money, and
that the whole transaction was not entered into with the
view of obtaining money from him, but for the purpose
of raising money on his acceptances. The seventh and
eighth counts were equally invalid on similar grounds,
and, therefore, he would not trouble the court with any
arguments upon them. The sixth count was in this
form :—The conspiracy was alleged to have been con
cocted for the purpose of defrauding Captait! Rosa of
divers large sums of money, which were his proper
moneys, and then an overt act was charged, namely, that
they did then and there defraud Captain Rose of billsof
exchange, and of the proceeds thereof prospectively.
Could anything be more vague—anything more general?
A man of property might be induced to marry a
pauper, on the strength of lacing told that she pos-
sessed great wealth, or a woman of ill-fame, on
a similar statement. In either of these cases, according
to the doctrine advanced in this, would an indictment lie?
He apprehended not. The ground on which Mr. Peacock
obtained a rule from the Court for a new trial was, that
the jury found the defendants guilty of six conspiracies.
In the great case of " O'Connell v. the Queen,' it was
held that a general judgment referred in some respect to
the whole of the indictment, but that if there was one
bad count, that the judgment could not be maintained.
So, he apprehended, it must be held in this case. In fact
the Court had the power to inflict six separate punish-
ments on each finding ; nay, more, it would become a
question whether the Court would discharge its duty
properly if it forbore to inflict such separate punish-
ments. On these grounds 'he held that the Court must
accede to a new trial.

Mr. PEACOCK followed on the same side. lie
reiterated the arguments of Mr. Hill, that an
unstamped document was inadmissible, and voted

a number of cases in which unstamped docu-
ments wese so held. The only cases in which such
documents could be admitted in evidence were those
criminal cases in which the fraud and conspiracy
charged consisted in forged unstamped documents,
which were necessary to prove the offence charged. The
third count set forth that the defendants conspired to
get the bills from Rose on the statement that a person
named Parker, then staying at Hatchett's Hotel, would
advance 55,0001. on them, and that Gompertz was to
receive 12,500/. of the amount for his trouble. Now, the
evidence of Rose himself went to show that he was per-
fectly insolvent at the time he signed the bills, and other
evidence adduced showed that the bills were signed by
Rose for the accommodation of Gompertz; that the bills
were never in the possession of Rose ; that they were
not his property ; that he received the warrant of
attorney from Gompertz as security for drawing the
bills ; and that his condition forbade the inference that
he could be defrauded of their amounts. In fact, if there
was any conspiracy to defraud at ail, it must have been
a conspiracy to defraud those who advanced money upon
the bills. By the very agreement amongst the whole of
the parties Captain Rose was not to receive any of the
produce of the bills, and up to this time he had not ever
paid the bills. He dealt with the 4th, srh, 6th, and Bth
counts, and held that :hey were invalid for the reasons
he had stated. He then referred to the six separate
findings of the jury, and held that they were bad, inas-
much as they rendered the parties six times punishable
for v hat was lirtualty the same charge. On these
grounds he held that the Court must accede to a new

who appeared ith Mr. Cowling
Mr. WATSON, Q-C.,
for Mr. Robert Witham, one of the defendants, then
proceeded to address the Coart. He said he
was in-
structed to sly, on behalf of his client, who was the
youngest son of Mr. William Witham, that he was
wholly innocent of the crime brought to his charge,
and that his conviction must have arisen out
of some misconception on the part of the jury
who tried him, and that his conviction could only
have arisen out of some of those circumstances which
generally weighed in the minds of a jury called upon to
try an indictment of conspiracy. Mr. Francis Witham
died before the indictment was brought before a court of
justice, so that, whether he was guilty, or whether he
had been made a dupe of, or not, were questions which it
was unnecessary now to determine. His client was 19
years of age at the time, and when the indictment
was instituted against him he had only been two years
in his father's office. His father and grandfather had
occupied a high position as solicitors, and had carried oh
business in the same office, in Gray's-inn-square, since
1J72. Captaia Rose was an outcast from his family, au
outlaw, and in great pecuniary difficulties, his only
means :of subsistence being half-pay, and 200/., which
was allowed him by his friends, and the reversionary
interest of 8,0002, to which, after all, he had no
claim whatever, as his father had advanced the
money upon it. Captain Rose, it appeared, had been a
candidate to represent the borough of Poole in Parlia-
ment, and in order to pay the expenses of the contest a
Mr. Slade lent him 1,0001., but as he could not get it
back again he instructed Mr. Parr, his solicitor, to pro-
ceed to London in order to obtain its repayment from
Captain Rose. Being thus pressed, and being anxious to
get tid of the importunities of Mr. Parr, he and G ompertz,
on the 25th of Avgust, during the long vacation of
1841, attended at the office of Messrs. Witham, and in-
duced Mr. Robert Witham, who was the only person
there, and he had nothing whatever to do with the ma-
nagement of the firm, to write a letter to Mr. Parr,
stating, in the name of the firm, that they had every
reason to believe that the bills of Captain Rose,
for 30,0001, would be duly paid by Parker.
There could be no question that this letter was obtained
for the express purpose of satisfying Mr. Parr, and was
obtained from a young man of 19, who was not entrusted
with any voice in the management of the firm, by Rose
and Gornpertz, both of whom were experienced men of
the world. This was the only evidence against Robert
Witham. Rose, however, stated at the trial that the letter
was written without any pressing request on his part, or
on the part of Gompertz. On the very day the letter was
exhibited to Mr. Parr, and an order given to him or
Messrs. Witham for 1,0001 Shortly after, Parr, at a
meeting at the Carlton Club, he having received a letter
from Mr. Witham sen., saying that Parker was not his
client, and that he did not know him, stated that he be-
lieved the matter was all humbug, and that they had
only misled him. _ _

Lord DENMAN said the worst part of the matter was
that the Withams acted as the attorneys of Rose and
Gompertz, and that a solicitor named Smith acted for
the imaginary Mr. Parker, thus favouring the assump-
tion that they did not act for Parker because there was
fraud in the transaction.

Mr. WATSON went on to say, that notwithstanding
the letter of Mr. Witham, sen., stating that Parker, who
was to advance the motet' on the bills, was not his
client, Rose, who knew of the circumstance, signed
the bills shortly after. Then it was stated by Mr. Parr
that Mr. Robert Witham was at the meeting at the
Carlton Club, whereas it appeared from his affidavits
that he never was in the Carlton Club in his lifetime,
and that the evidence given in the course of the trial was
a mistake he was often taken for his brother, who is
dead.

Lord DEN➢IAN stated that the Court would look at the
affidavits before hearing Mr. Watson further.

BAIL COURT, "Nov 10.

Sittings iu Banco, before Mr. Justice r ATTESON.)

• THE QUEEN V. DUNN.
The defendant in this case appeared to make an ap-
plication to the Court to change the venue in an indict-
went against him for perjury, from the city of London to
the county of Middlesex.
The Defendant stated that his Lordship would re-
m tuber that, in chambers, a writ of certiorari had been
granted to remove the indictmer,t from the Central
-Criminal Court to this Court, and he now sought to
change the venue. The affidavit on which he moved
stated ail the usual facts mentioned in such applications,
excepting that he could not obtain a fair trial in the
city of London, alth,uali there sere many difficulties in
the way of it which did not exist in the county of Mid-
dlesex. The prosecutrix resided iii Middlesex.
Sir F. TIIESIGER stated that the applicant had de-
scribed himself as living in Red Lion-square.
Mr. DUNN—Did not reside there at present, and no
advantage would, he felt eure, be taken of any such mis-
take. The prosecutrix resided in Middlesex, as did both
her partners, who were also parties to the prosecution.
The allegation in the indictment was, that he had at-
tempted to make the parties bankrupt, and although it
was not a true allegation, it was calculated to create a
very angry feeling amongst commercial men, because
any such attempt must necessarily be considered a harsh,
wanton, and improper proceeding. The proceeding he
had adopted was to summon the parties as traders, and
that summons would not make bankrupts of them. Com-
mercial men were peculiarly alive to any unhandsome
proceeding against parties equally respectable, wealthy,
and responsible, and though he had a good defence, which
created a great prejudice against him in the city of
London. As the parties resided in Middlesex, it
was their own county where they must have all their
natural influence. He sought to come into their county
to be tried, and it would be a further convenience as all
the witnesses resided there. There bad been certain
proceedings adopted in the Old Bailey which were cal-
culated to create very great alarm in his mind as to the
safety of carrying on the proceedings in the city of Lon-
don. When the case came on in Chambers, it was
stated that there was only one witness examined to sup-
port the indictment. That was not enough, and, besides,
since the indictment had been found, he had ascertained
that a most material addition bad been made to it.
They had placed on the back of the record the name
of the foreman several weeks after the indictment had
been found. That record had since been returned into
the Crown office. That was the reason for his sup-
posing that he would not have as fair a trial in London
as in Middlesex. He supposed that the parties were too
respectable for a moment to think of shoving him into
a corner by any unjust means.
Mr. Justice ParrEsoN----What is the indictment for ?

Mr. Duxes said it was for perjury; for swearing in
the Bankruptcy Court that Miss Burdett Coutts was in-
debted to him in a certain sum.

Mr. Justice PATTESON—WaS the affidavit made in
London ?

Mr. Dutor said that it was, but the parties were too
respectable to adopt any course to make him un-
easy. He left it in the hands of his Lordship,
as to whether or not it would be safer or better
to have the case tried in Middlesex. He also moved
for a special jury, but he believed that that was a
matter of course. He did not wish to throw any im-
putation upon the City. He did not, of course, say that
twelve honest men were not to be found in London, or,
indeed, in any place ; but he thought that there were
great difficulties in the way.
Mr. Justice ParrEsoN---The indictment was taken
out of the Central Criminal Court by writ of certiorari,
and whenever any case is thus removed, if there are any
difficulties about it, the place in which it is the practice
to lay the venue is the county in which the cause
in
indictment arises. The proper place in this caseoultd to

LISTON V. ST. HELEN'S RAILWAY COMPANY.
Mr. BAINES moved upon affidavits for a rule to set
aside a nonsuit to which the plaintiffs was obliged to
submit, in consequence of seven of the witnesses who
were called up )n the trial not answering, although sub-
poenaed.
The plaintiff was a clerk in the employ of the above
named company, and sought to recover a sum of money
for services rendered during a number of years to ae
