This cause came before his Honr.ur for further direc-
tions, the Master having made a report in consequer.ee
of the decree of the Court in November, 1845. The cause
turned upon the que=stion, whether or not a writ
was brought under the operation of the new Will
Act. Tne circumstances w: re these . John
Piilmer, the testator, mule his will on tht, 13th el niret,,

Winter, died during the life time of the te,fator, shi
made a codicil in I`i3B, which, after some immaterial
alterations, ratified his will. It was contended,
on the pirt of the plaintiff, who was the eldest son of
John Palmer Winter, that t',e estate to which his fathe-r
was entitled under the will of the testator should cb,vohie
upon him as heir-at-law, while on the part of the de-
fendants, who were females, it was alleged, that as Jii!!ii

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Dec S.
_ SHAW V. GLYNN.

Mr. Charnock and Mr. Pearson were for the plaintiff,
and Mr. Wordiworth for the defendant.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, Miss Jane
Shaw, in forma pauperis, to recover 60/. from the de-
fendant, Mr. N. C. Glynn, a member of the legal profes-
sion, for services rendered to him as a housekeeper.
Evidence was adduced to show that, from May to
August, 1844, the plaintiff resided in the same house
with the defendant, cooked his meals, and sometimes
partook of part of them with him, and superintended the
house and the lodgers it contained. There was,
however, evidence to show that the defendant
purchased the furniture, and that he only
allowed the plaintiff the use of it until she could
obtain sufficient money to repay him, and that they did
not live together in the capacity of master and servant.
At
the
plaintiff's case,
W. it to the jury to say whether
they consideredthe conclusion
plaintifft did or did not live with the
ustoicrieclEu sihatoLe n z (
13)fu
defendant in the capacity of a servant.
The jury considered she did not, and the plaintiff
was nonsuited.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Dec. 5.
HOLDER V. COAPE.-IGPECIAL JURY.

This was an action brought to recover the sum of
1801. for board, lodging, and maintenance supplied by
the plaintiff, an hotel-keeper, in the New-road, to the
usa of the wife of the defendant.

Mr. Stuart Wortley and Mr. Cowling appeared for
the plaintiff; Sir F. Thesiger and Mr. Robinson for the
defendant.

From the evidence adduced on the part of the plaintiff
it appeared that the defendant was a highly respectable
person, and well known in the sporting world, and his
income amounted to 2,8001. a year. The defendant and
wife were living apart, and the present action was
brought to recover the sum due for her expenses. On
the part of the defence documents were put in (admitted
upon the other side) and witnesses examined, to prove
the payment of the sum of 8001. a year by the defendant
into the bank of Messrs. Rogers and Co. for the use of
the plaintiff.
Mr. STUART WORTLEY having replied upon the evi-
dence at some length,
The LORD CHIEF BARON in summing up to the
jury. said the simple question for them to decide was,
whether the sum of 800/. was a sufficient allowance for
the proper maintenance and support of his wife.
Thejury retired, and after a short consultation re-
turned a verdict for the defendant.

Mr. STUART WORTLEY tendered a bill of exceptions
to one portion of the direction of his Lordship with re-
ference to the deed of separation. He said he hoped
his Lordship would not so direct the jury ; there was no
deed of separation between the parties, and he thought it
his duty respectfully to state that he could not concur in
such opinion.
The LORD CHIEF Banox would reserve to the Learned
Counsel every opportunity to bring the matter forward
again in any mann( r he pleased, either in this Court or
the Court above.

On the part of the defendant, Sir F. THESICER con-
tended that as an allowance of 8001. a year was made by
the defendant for the support of his wife, which was re-
gularly paid in to her account at Messrs. Rogers and
Co.'s bank, and which was regularly drawn out by her,
ho would not, therefore, be liable for the amount now
claimed.
The LORD CHIEF BARON said that he had consulted
some of the learned judges, and their opinion coincided
entirely with his, that the only question for the jury
was, whether the allowance of 800/. was or was not suf
ficient for the maintenance and support of the wife in
such a manner as her position demanded.
The jury, after a short time, returned a verdict for
the defendant.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Dec. 5.
LORD PORTMAN V. FLOOD.

This was an action of trespass, brought by Lord
Portman, against the defendant, who represented the
Marylebone vestry, involving the right of way through
Harewood• square. The plaintiff had attempted to lix
gates at the entrance to the square, in which he had
been res;sted by the parish authorities, hence the present
action. At the suggestion of the Learned Judge, it was
arranged that it should be turned into a special case.

BROWNE V. SMITH.

In this running down case, which did not terminate
till after 11 o'clock last night, the jury returned a verdict
for the plaintiff.—Damages 150 L

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.

A foreigner, named Hendershon, was brought before
the Lord Mayor. on Saturday, charged with the follow-
ing burglary and robbery. The prisoner is one of those
fellows who are in the habit of standing shivering in the
streets, half-naked, in the coldest weather.
Mr. Leach, son to the proprietor of the house No. 5,
Great Tower-street, watch and clock-maker, stated that
on Friday evening the window of the shop was broken
with a stone seven or eight pounds in weight by the
prisoner, who then thrust his hands into the shop and
tookiout a case containing between thirty and forty pounds
worth of seals, rings, and other jewellery. If it had not
been for the sash and other impediments, the stone would
in all probability have struck him, as, no doubt, was
intended, for the purpose of preventing him from
running after the thief. He, however, escaped injury,
and jumping over " the counter, ran out of the shop,
called "Stop
thief, and succeeded in getting hold of
the prisoner
, who had been just received into the arms
policeman, and upon whose person some of the
cd "
of a
stolen property was found. The prisoner's hands were
cut with the glass. He had thurst both his hands in to
grasp the tray ofjeweery. The tray was thrown upon
the pavement, avid several of the neighbours picked
up the greater part of the goods, and restored them to
the owner.
Mr. Leach, the prosecutor, stated that the prisoner
had some time ago broken a pane of glass in his shop,
and stolen four gold watches of the value of upwards of
601., and the Recorder had sentenced him to twelve
months' imprisonment. The punishment at that time
was considered exceedingly disproportioned to the
•-1 calculated to deter ruffians from the
m lar depredations, and the complainant
caddressedoffence a 1 1
o llt ai
the Court upon the subject. He appre-
hended now that the lightness of the punishment at
that time had probably led to the commission of the pre-
sent offence.
The prisoner was committed for trial.
BOW-STREET.

THE BUILDING ACT.—Mr. Todd, a builder in Marl-
borough-road, Chelsea, was charged on an information
under 7th and Bth Vic., c. 84, with neglecting to build a
party-wall to a house he was erecting in Oxford-street.
Mr. Prendergast defended him.
A solicitor, who attended to support the information
on behalf of Mr. Pownall, the district surveyor, stated
chat the Act came into operation last January, at.d its
object was to prevent serious casualties from fire, &c.
The Act provided that every house containing Nit hin
the walls two hundred thousand cubic feet should be
divided from others by a party-wall. The defendant
received notice from the district surveyor in October that
he must build a party-wall, or he would infringe the
Act ; but as he still continued to build, the matter was
laid before the official referees, who made an award that
the building was constructed contrary to the Act. The
matter was subsequently laid before the Commis-
sioners of Woods and Forest, who declined in-
terfering. A Mr. Merrick occupied the premises
when finished, and carried ou the business of a
paper stainer ; but as the builder refused to alter the
premises, the referees withdrew the license granted to
him to carry on the business there, and on his refusing
to discontinue it, the present proceedings were taken
against the builder. Evidence was given in support of
the charge, mid Mr. Prendergast took an objection to
the terms in which the certificate authorising the official
referees to act was drawn, and being held good, the sum-
m, a; was dismissed. This was the first case under the
Act brought before this court, aHd it ought to operate as
a caution to persons carrying on business in buildings
,
constructed without the necessary party walls, the pe
nalties against such persons being 2001. a day.
A person, who gave his name as Taylor, made an ap-
plication to Mr. Henry for advice, as to the triode of re-
covering the sum of 15s
the Parcel Mail Company The parcel had been posted
at the chief office, but had. never been heard of by the
person to whom it was directed. The chief clerk had
the value of a parcel lost by
admitted the receipt of the parcel, and had given him a
letter to Mr. Slay, the cashier, desiring him to pay the
155., and giving him the authority of a member of the
company, a Mr.
F. (the initial only was given), for the
payment. Applicant had presented this letter to Mr.
Slay, but he refused to pay it, saying that Mr. F. was
net now a member of the company, thout.,h he had been.
Applicant wished to know whether the magistrate could
not grant a summons.
The Usher said, that before bringing the applicant
into Court he had told him it was useless, but he thought
if the magistrate saw it he ss ould grant a summons.
Mr. HENRY said he was very sorry that he must give
the applicant the same answer that he he.d given to hun-
dreds of applicants who had lost property by sending it
by the same conveyance. ITe bud no goner to grant a
summons ; and the only
remedy was by an action against
the Parcel Mail Company.
The applicant discontentedly left the Court, saying
that he would enter an action immediately. _

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
TViWant Crisp was charged with leaping up behind
the carriage of Mrs. Jacobson on Friday, and ann,iying
the nurse-maid.
Mrs. Jacobson said she and her son, and the nurse-
maid with the child, were in the phtmon on Friday, about
half-past two o'clock, passing round the corner of Green.
