CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.)
The LORD CHANCELLOR sat to day at 11 o'clock.

LACY V INGLE—JUDGMENT.
The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to-day
It? this case, which came before his Lordship some
tune since, upon an aeal from the decree of the
Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce, declaring that the
plaintiff was not entitled to redeem a mortgage with-
out satisfying a lien claimed of the defendant. His
Wrdship reversed the judgment of the Court below,
arid declared the plaintiff entitled to the decree asked
by the bill for the redemption of the mortgage.
UODKINSON V. DARROW—JUDGMENT.
His LORDSHIP also gave judgment in this case,
reversing the decision of the Court below.
Tag ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE MERCHANT VEN-

TIMERS OF BRISTOL.
The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in
this case, which came before the Court upon an ap-
peal from the decision of the blaster of the Rolls,
directing the defendants to account, for the surplus
income of the estates of Coiston's charity, in the city
of Bristol. The information was filed for the better
administration of the charity. Certain lands and
houses had been conveyed to the society for the main-
tenance and education of one hundred poor boys.
These lands were valued at the time of the convey-
ance, and the society was contented to accept the
supposed income for the performance of the trust.
During some years afterwards, as it was alleged, the
fund proved insufficient to sustain the charity, but
there was now a considerable surplus, which it
claimed to retain for its own use, and the object of
the information was to have that surplus applied to
the benefit of the charity. The Master of the Rolls
held that the charity was entitled to the disposition of
the surplus, although the society had originally ex-
pended some of their own monies for the support of
the boys, and although there had been a contract with
the donor, because he considered the society to be the
mere trustee of the funds. From this decision the
defendants appealed to this branch of the Court, and
the Lord Chancellor gave judgment this morning,
dismissing that appeal with costs.
COTIIER V. THE MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY.
j. lie LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in
ets case, which was an appeal from the decision of
the Vice-Chancellor Wigram, continuing an injunc-
tion restraining the defendants from taking certain
land of the plaintiffs. His Lordship thought the
judgment of the Court below erroneous, being of
opinion that the motion for continuing the injunction
ought to have been dismissed with costs.
The Court then proceeded to hear lunatic petitions.

- -EEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco before the LORD CHIEF-JUSTICE and
Justices PATTESON, COLERIDGE, and \VIGIITMAN.)
CASE OF THE REV. DR. HAMPDEN.
Tn QUEEN E V. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY.
As soon as the Learned Judges had taken their
,seats this morning,
Lord DENMAN said (addressing the Attorney-
General, who appeared ir. his place)—We think it
beat to mention, with respect to the case of the Queen
against the Archbishop of Canterbury, argued yester-
day, that we shall give the judgment of the Court on
Tuesday, in order that it may not interiere with the
regular isiness of the Court.
THE QUEEN U. CHARMS SIR WILLIAM YOUNG, AND
OTII ERS.--CON SPI RACY.
This was a prosecution against the defendants and
°Ours, fur cotopiring to procure a cadetship by sale.
t 'The defendants were found Guilty.
The facts of the case will no doubt be fresh in the
recollection of our readers.
• The ATTORNEY GENERAL prayed the judgment of
the Court upon the defendants.
Captain Charitie was the only defendant that ap-
peared on the floor of the court. Sir \Vin. Young
was absent from indisposition.
Mr. COCKBURN, on the part of Sir W. Young,
moved fcr a rule to show cause why a new trial
should not be had on the ground of misdirection on
the part of the Learned Judge who tried the case
(Lord Denman), and also on account of the verdicts
being against the evidence adduced at the trial. It
was important that it should be borne in mind that
Captain Charitie was found guilty on the first and
7th counts, and that Sir W. Young was only found
guilty on the 7th. A portion of the money paid
through Mrs. Stewart for the support of Mr. Wea-
therspoon found its way to the account kept by Cap•
tain Charitir at his barkers, but there was no evidence
to show that Sir W. Young had received any portion
of it. -He was guilty of nothing more than falsehood
and artifice. lie simply used his influence as a di-
rector to have Mr. \Veatherspoon put down as one of
the candidates for a cadetship, in accordance with an
arrangement between the directors. He had no
Power to sell the 'office, and hence he could nut bar-
gain for the sale of an office which was not in his
gift.

Lord DENMAN said, perhaps the Learned Counsel's
observation would apply in a case in which a person
bargained to sell an office which he had no power to
disposes of; but if he had, and that was a question in
case, the case would be different.
Mr. ustice COLERIDGE said, if a person nominated
another to the next presentation to a living for gain,
it could not be said that the Dean and Chapter who
elected him were responsible. Surely the sale of a
mere voice in the election was equivalent to the sale
of the sole right of election.
'Mr. Justice PATTESON said the statute on this point
spoke of the " sale of a cousint," and made such an
act punishable.
Mr. Cocxnuitx said the Learned Judge should
have told the jury that a person could not sell an
office which was not in his appointment. .11- cadet
did not obtain his commission until he arrived in
India; before his arrival he was not in the service,
of the company, and that being the case no sale could
bare taken place. Then it was not unlikely that
there was confusion in the minds of the jury on
account of the wording of the two counts, becAuse the
finding could not fail to strike every one as unsatis-
factory and inconsistent. He submitted on these
grounds that the verdict ought not to stand.
Mr. CROWDER then moved, on behalt of Captain
Charitie, and said the argument of his Learned
Friend would apply to his cliet. He contended
that, under the 4th of Geo. 111. n
c. 126, sections 3
and 4, his client could not be found guilty, inasmuch
as it said that the sale of a " place or occupation"
should be deemed a misdemeanour, and a cadetship
cctild not in ordinary parlance be considered " a
place or occupati9n."
Lord DENMAN thought the objection an important
one, especially in regard to the question whether this
Was a conspiracy to sell the nomination to the office
or not. Looking at the construction of the statute it
appeared to him that the charge against Captain
Charitie was nothing more than using his influence
with a director of the East India Company, no
grounds for an appointment to a cadetship.
Lord DENMAN granted a rule upon all the objec-
wins urged, both with respect to the indictment and
misdirection. Ile did not think much stress could
be laid upon the inconsistency of the verdicts. The
question whether Mrs. Stewart's letters were ad-
missible against Captain Charitie depended upon the
nature of the Other evidence.
ISHABBOTT V. THE COMMISSIONERS OF WOODS AND
FOR ESTS.
This was a Case of compensation under the 9th and
lOth of Victoria, for constructing Battersea Park, to
assess the value of a small ouantity of land belonging
!0:) the plaintiff, required for that purpose. The plain-
tiff claimed about 10,000/ but the jury gave a ver-
dict for 7431. '7
Mr. M. CHAMBERS moved for a rule calling upon the
Commissioners of Woods and Forests, and also upon
the Sheriff of Surrey, to show cause why a prohibi-
tion should nA issue directing the sheriff not to re-
cord the verdict and judgment of that jury. The
Learned Counsel said some confusion must have been
caused in the minds of the jury by a dispute that
existed with the corporation respecting the greater
Portion of it. The Sheriff unfairly and unjustly
°lnitted to ask the jury, as pointed out in the statute,
