VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.)
DUNCOMBE V. LEWIS AND LEVY.
'This case stood on the paper to-day by special arrangement.
Mr. BETHELL, at the sitting of the Court, stated that, so
far as the defendant Mrs. Levy was concerned, he would not
trouble his friend Mr. Wakefield to address the Court, as the
answer, he was bound to confess, was too strong for him. As
to the other defendant, Lewis,he had not seen his answer,
but he would look into it by to-morrow, and tell his Learned
Friend, Mr. Stuart, what he thought of it.
Mr. STUART thought that his Learned Friend, Mr. Bethell,
would find the answer of Lewis as strong as that put in by
Mrs. Levy.
Mr. 'WAKEFIELD—Then the order, as far as Mrs. Levy is
concerned, is made absolute?
Mr. BETHELL—Yes, and as to Lewis the case will stand
over till to-morrow.
ANDREWS V. LOCKWOOD.
The remainder of the morning was occupied with the
arguments in this case, which came before the Court upon a
plea to a bill of revival. The question in the case is merely
one relating to the practice of the Court, and presented no
feature of the least public interest.

eldlrwmithKeetfehe
Between the hours of three and four o'clock yesterday
afternoon the prisoners, with a mob of about forty or fifty
others—the greater part of them armed with formidable
bludgeons—were parading St. Giles's, stopping every person
they met, and demanding that money should be given them,
on account of its being " St. Patrick's-day." They also en-
tered several shops and demanded money, and on meeting with
a refusal they attempted to extort it by intimidation, brandish-
ing their bludgeons in a menacing manner, and threatening. if
money was not given to them, to break and destroy the
shop and the goods in it. In Dudley-street the prisoner
Barker struck a pOor man who refused to give him a half-

LONDON AND BRIGHTON (EAST GRIN.

STEAD BRANCH).

SOUTH-EASTERN (GODSTONE TO EAST

GIZIN.SZAIELD).

Mr. HILL, Counsel for the Loudon and B: ighton Company, said
the branch whose merits he was to open before the Committee ran
from East Grinstead towards the west, and came into the Brighton
line at a place called Three Bridges ; and that being the point from
which the Brighton line started to Horsham, there would be a
straight line from Horsham to East Grinstead. This branch was in
competition with a proposal to make a line which from East Grinstead
would run north, and come into the South-Eastern Railway about
one and a-halt miles from the Godstone station. The branch from
the Brighton line would be 6 miles 6 furlongs long, and be con-
structed at a cost of 80,0001. ; there were no tunnelling or engineering
difficulties on the way. On the other hand, the South-Eastern
branch would have to cross a deep valley by a viaduct, supported on
30 arches, each arch having a span of 42 feet, and standing 76 feet
high, the piers at the other end descending 20 feet deeper. The gra-
dient on that line would be 1 in 66. It was to cost, by their own
estimate, 110,0001. As to the Brighton branch, he was sure that
the connexion from East Grinstead with Lewes, the county town,
with Brighton and Newhaven, would be an obvious advantage. By
the Brighton branch there was a straight line to Lewes ; whereas,
proceeding by the South-Eastern he would have to go to
Reigate, and from that to Horsham, beiere he cculd start for the
county town. It wa- of great importance to keep operi the commu-
nication from the west eastward, as the supplies of corn and other
products came from the west. It was unopposed except by the
South-Eastern Company.
Mr. Maxus, for the Brighton Company, called witnesses to prove
the traffic and the favourable feeling which prevailed in the district.
Mr. Rastrick, engineer of the Brighton Branch, said, the Three
Bridges station was 29 ik miles distant from London-bridge. East Grin-
stead stood high, but there were no engineering difficulties to over come.
The worst grad,ent was 1 in 88, but all of them were for short dis-
tances. The total of cuttings would be 601,060 feet, and of embank-
ments 367,912 feet. The engineering work would cost 70,0001., and
the cost of the land, he believed, would be 9,9001. On the South-
Eastern branch the gradients would be 1 in 66, or 60 feet per mile,
and stretching a distance of 2% miles.

to enable them to stand out against their masters, but he refused
on principle to accede to their request. This was a con-
vincing proof of what they might expect from an abolition of pro-
tection. He was for protecting the native industry of the country,
and he, for one, preferred Scarborough linen to German linen,
Leeds woollen goods to Belgium, and York clogs and shoes to
Paris articles.—( Hear, hear, and laughter.) He moved, as an
amendment, that the word " linen" be left out.

Mr. DUNCOMBE said he represented a town where
there were extensive linen manufactories, and certainly he had
heard nothing from his constituents to lead him to believe that
they were opposed to the Government measure. From what
he knew of them, they were adverse to protection in any shape,
and did not dread competing with the foreigner.—( Hear. )
The amendment was negatived without a division, and the
original motion was agreed to.

WESTMINSTER.

Emma Shepherd, a decently dressed young woman, was
charged with shoplifting.
There were no less than three robberies committed by the
accused on the same morning, at different linendrapers'
shops, two of which were distinctly proved against her; the
third was equally conclusive, but the prosecutor was not in
attendance. She commenced operations at Mr. Parton's,
Queen's-row, Pimlico, where she requested to be shown some
ribands, but left the shop without making any purchase.
She next visited Mr. Smith's establishment at Pimlico, on a
similar errand, and lastly repaired to Mr. Foot's, Warwick-
street, Pimlico, where she was shown a number of articles.
Whilst the shopman was occupied at the other end of the
premises in getting down other goods, she was observed by
one of the customers to place a bundle of artificial flowers
under her dress; but finding herself closely watched, after
remaining about ten minutes, she replaced the property upon
the counter. A policeman was sent for and she was searched,
when two rolls of riband were found upon her, which upon
inquiry were found to have been stolen from the ether linen-
drapers named. The prisoner had no money in her posses-
sion to make a purchase with.
She made no defence, and was fully committed for trial.

HAUBoun.

This Bill WAS then proceeded with, and witnesses on behalf of the
scheme called.

Mr. Charles Gray, deputy-chairman of the Glasgow River Trust,
was first called and examined. He said it would be a great conve-
nience to approach the harbour by rails, but the attempts hitherto
made were defeated because it was found that the schemes proposed
would seriously interfere with the general traffic. It was this that
caused the proposition of last year to be defeated in its main features.
The present sehenie would obviate the difficulty, as it approached the
harbour at a point that would not in the least degree Interfere with
the general traTfic of the harbour. The other two schemes
did not approach the harbour at such, a good point. The
one was too high, the other too low. The Grand Junc-
tion was B 9 far up that the rails would interfere very much
with the general traffic ; and the Tedal Basin and the terminus of the
Cl tsgow Harbour Mineral was so low down, that they would inter-
(era with the vessels passing up and down the river. The General
Terminus Company had purchased the land for their purposes from
the River Trust, and the latter were in support of the scheme as the
best means of approaching the harbour without interfering with the
general traffic. The sale of the land had been unanimously con-
firmed by the musters at one of their meetings.
Cross-examined by Mr. CARROL, on the part of the Glasgow
Harbour Mineral—The position of the llosbour Mineral Company
was decidedly objectionable, as it was too far down the river. It
was further down, than the proposed docks of the River Trust at
Stob Cross, He did not think it was neeessary to separate the
mineral from the other traffic by different harbours ; it could be done
in the same harbour. The vessels at present lay on the south side
in tiers of three and four deep, and the traffic was very great. The
river opposite the general terminus was 480 feet, and in the best part
of the river. He had never opposed the laying down of rails on
the quays, provided they did not interfere with the general traffic.
Cross-examined by Mr. HILL, on the part of the Glasgow Harbour
Grand Junction CoMpany. Ilkr, considered the general terminus was
the proper medium for approaching the harbour. The' River Trust
was not bound to the general terminus beyond the agreement come
to In the purchase of the land., He did r.ot know how many of them
were shareholders. He only knew two or three gentlemen who were
shareholders. The length of quay on the, south side was 3,700 feet.
He had ten shares himself, and bought them at 91. to 101. premium.
He believed they were still at that.

(Continued from •ur Afternoon Edition •f yesterday.)
_ _

Mr, TALBOT, counsel for Lord Liverpool and ether landowners on
the Bath branch, addressed the Committee at length against the line,
euutending that it was expensive, and through an ill-populated dis-
trict, where the traffic would net be compensating, and that that
district was already accommodated by the Brighton and Hastings
Railway ; so that the granting of the proposed line would be prejudi-
zial to bath companies, and therefore to the landowners, through
whose property they are to run.
Mr. HILL proposed to put in evidence of the insufficient amount of
traffic, and the proposed line being the same with that thrown cut in
1844, in the contest with the Brighton Company.
The Committee decided that it could not be received.
Sir Godfrey Webster, at this point, intimated, through counsel,
that he withdrew his opposition.
The CILLIRMAN announced that the preamble of the /Silt was
proved.

CRIME IN ENGLAND.

Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL said he wished to put a question
to the Right Hon. Baronet the Secretary of the Home De-
partment with respect to certain returns relating to crime in
England ; but as that Right Hon. Baronet was not in his place,
perhaps the Right Hon. Gentleman the Chancellor of the
Exchequer would be good enough to answer his question. He
(Mr. John O'Connell) moved a short time ago for similar re-
turns, relating to crime in England as were laid before the
House with regard to Ireland, but the Right
Honourable Bat onet the Secretary for the Home
Department said it was impossible to give the English returns
with the same fulness as those relating to Ireland. Now lie
wished to know whether they were likely soon to be put in
possession of these returns„ and whether the Government had
objected to state the reasons why they could not be given with
the fulness of the Irish returns?

TZZ GENERAL TERMINUS AND GLASGOW

73ARB OUR.

This Bill was then proceeded with, and witnesses on behalf of the
scheme called.

Mr. Charles Gray, deputy-chairman of the Glasgow River Trust,
was first called and examined. He said it would be a great conve-
nience to approach the harbour by rails, but the attempts hitherto
made were defeated because it was foune that the schemes proposed
would seriously interfere with the general traffic. It was this that
caused the proposition of last year to be defeated in its main features.
The present scheme would obviate the difficulty, as it approached the
harbour at a point that would not in the least degree Interfere with
tire general traffic of the harbour. The other two schemes
did not approaoh the harbour at such a good point. The
one was toe high, the other too low. The Grand Junc-
tion was so far up that the rails would interfere very much
with the general traffic ; and the Tedal Basin and the terminus of the
Glasgow Harbour Mineral was so low down, that they would inter-
fere with the vessels passing up and down the river. The General
Terminus Company had purchased the land for their purposes from
the River Trust, and the latter were in support of the scheme as the
best means of approaching the harbour without interfering with the
general traffic. The sale of the laud had been unanimously con-
firmed by the Masters at one of their meetings. . _ _

Cross-examined by Mr. CARROL, on the part of the Glasgow
Harbour Mineral—The position of the Harbour Mineral Company
was decidedly objectionable, as it was too fur down the river. It
was further down than the proposed docks of the River Trust at
Stob Cross. He did not think it was necessary to separate the
mineral from the other tratlic by different harbours ; it could be done
in the same harbour. The vessels at present lay on the south side
in tiers of three and four deep, and the traffic was very great. The
river opposite the general terminus was 4811 feet, and in the best part
of the river. He had never opposed the laying down of rails on
the quays, provided they did not interfere with the general traffic.
Cross-examined by Mr. Mix, on the part of the Glasgow Harbour
Grand Junction Company. lie considered the general terminus was
the proper medium for approaching the harbour. The Itiver Trust
was not bound to the general terminus beyond the agreement come
to in the purchase of the land. Ile did not know how many of them
were shareholders. Ile only knew two or three gentlemen who were
shareholders. The length of quay on the south side was 3,700 feet.
He had ten shares himself; and bought them at 91. to 101. premium.
lie believed they were still at that.

After hearing the usual evidence, the Consinittee decided that the
Committee had complied with the standing orders in this case.
DIRECT NORTHERN (LONDON TO YORK).

The formal proofs were entered in this case, and the Committee
adjourned to three o'clock, for the purpose of hearing the allegations
against the Bill by the opposing companies.

GUILDFORD, CHICHESTER, PORTSMOUTH, AND FAREIIAII

RAILWAY.

The Committee, after a lengthened investigation, cle:dded that the
promoters of this line had complied with the standing orders.

TAW VALE RAILWAY.
The hearing of this eass was adjourned to Thursday next.
THE DIRECT NORTHERN RAILWAY.

This most importantcompctln7scheme for a line of railway from
London to York was resumed at three o'clock. The greatest in-
terest was manifested by the crowds of persons that surrounded the
passages to the Committee-rooms.

- Meism Webster's, Farquhar, and Leech, appeared for the pro-
moters.

Messrs. Dyson, Hall, and Coates, attended for the London and
Tork Company, who opposed the scheme.
A large number of allegations were submitted against the engi-
neering points of the plans and sections, none of which were sustained.
The first allegation of any importance brought forward, stated
that the line at certain points, commencing at the 49th mile and on
towards York, was five feet out of the level. The Committee an-
nounced that they had come to a determination to require that
tile promoters and the opponents should each send down a
surveyor, accompanied by a third disinterested party, to resurvey
five miles of the line, with an understanding that the surveying
should continue further if that were considered necessary.
The case was then postponed till Monday next.
. .

The Committee adjourned at five o'clock, to Thursday next, at
twelve o'clock.

lIOITSE OF COMMONS.

The members of this Committee assembled as usual this day at
One o'clock, in No. 9 Room, and decided in the cases of the Corn.
wall Railway, the Preston and Lancaster Railway, and the Berks
and Slants hallway—that the standing orders should be dispensed
with, and that the promoters should be allowed to proceed with
their Bills.

In the cases of the Shrswsbcry and Hereford Railway, the Edin-
burgh, Glasgow•, and Dumbarton Railway, and the London and Man-
chester Direct Railway, it was decided that the standing orders
should not be dispensed with, that the Bills shoul4 not be allowed to
be Proceeded with.

GROUP XIV,

The Committee appointed to ascertain the merits of the respective
Bills comprised in this group re-asaembled at the usual hour this
morning, in the Vice-Chancellor's Court, and proceeded with the case
of the

NORTH RENT LINE.

The fret witness called was Mr. Vignoles, the engineer of the
line, who stated that he was the engineer of several large and im-
portant lines. Ile first looked out a line in North Kent in the
autumn of 1839, and that project had since been resumed more than
once. Plans were deposited for the scheme in 1941 and 1842. Ills
experience of the county had made hint thoroughly ac-
quainted with the district of the North Kent Railway
long before the commencement of last year. In 1836, he
re-surveyed a line for Colonel Langan,iwlio had planned out a railway
through North Kent, but that scheme fell . through, and it was not
until 1839 that he surveyed the district on his own account. Neither
of these projects was pr. muted by the South Eastern Company, and
he believed they would have been referred to Committees as com-
peting lines to the South-Eastern. In 1842 he laid out another line,
promoted by Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmith, but it was ultimately aban-
doned. In the following year, just previous to embarking for Ger-
many, he looked over the county again, with a view of sketching out.
a line, and on his return from Germany in 1844, he de-
vised a plan for crossing the river Medway at Rochester.
Ills plan was, for erecting a bridge which should unite
the two advantages of a road traffic and a railway bridge. The trustees
of Rochester-bridge were at the time anxious to rebuild a bridge
across the river, and he thought this a favourable opportunity for
publishing his plan. At this time, however, he only contemplated a
line to Margate and Ramsgate, but subsequently, finding that he was
followed by the South-Eastern Company step by step, he determined
to extend the line from Chatham to Canterbury. A short time
afterwards the South-Eastern Conipany carried their line from Ash-
Lbrd through Canterbury to Margate and Itants,tate, and this induced
hint to abandon for the moment that portion of his line going in the
same direction. Tie South-Eastern ompany commenced surveying
tOr a North Kent line in 1844, long atter he had enteres. upon
his Own surveys, and long atter the prospectus of his own
project had been published.' The first notification the South-Eastern
Company published was put forth in June, 1844, when they stated
their intention to make a line from L9llOll to farAnitig, and Croix
