ARDEN ♦ND ANOTHER V. TUCKER.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE this morning gave judgment in
this case. The plaintiffs were in partnership as attorneys.
One of them only was an attorney of the Palace Court, and
the action was brought in their joint names for business done
in that Court for the defendant. Various objections had been
taken to the action, which were grounded chiefly, that as only
one of the plaintiffs was an attorney of the Palace Court, the
action could not be maintained in the name of the partner also,
who was not an attorney of that Court. The Jury found a
verdict for the defendant. The case afterwards came before
the Court upon a rule to enter a verdict for the plain-
tiffs, when the case was fully argued. The Court
were of opinion that the action was maintainable in the joint
names. An attorney might employ a proctor to do business
for a client in the Ecclesiastical Court, and although that at-
torney was not a proctor he might sue for the business he had
so clone; so might an attorney not of the Palace Court, sue for
business done in employing an attorney of the Palace Court on
behalf of a client. Those cases were analogous to the present,
and therefore the rule must be made absolute for entering a ver.
diet for the plaintiffs.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Montreal and Quebec Papers to the 7th of April,
Halifax to the 17th, Madras to the 13th January, and
Calcutta to the 4th of January, have been received at the
North and South American Coffee-house.
The Montreal Papers contain the Quebec Gazette Ex-
traordinary, with the speech of Lieut. General Lord
Aylmer on the protogation of the Assembly. It states
as follows :
" Gentlemen of the Legislative Council,

" You are now about to return to your respective homes,
there to enjoy the leisure which the labours of the pro-
tracted session have rendered necessary.
" Gentlemen of the House of Assembly,
"I thank you for the pecuniary aids towards carrying
on internal improvements, and other objects of utility,
which your literality has placed at the disposal of the
Executive Government, and amongst these I regret that
I am not enabled to enumerate the necessary provision
for giving full effect to a system of quarantine."
The Quebec Papers state that the close of the session
has left the affairs of the country in a worse state than at
any time since the House of Assembly was intrusted with
the votes of the supplies for the support of Government.
At QuAec and its vicinity there are nine ships of war on
the stocks, most of them large ships, which will be ready
fur launching in a few weeks.
The Halifax Papers state that orders have been received
at the dockyard at Jamaica to discharge all the officers
attached to it, and to continue only one clerk.
The Madras pipers inform us that by a letter from the
camp at Berada, Captain Bird, with the main body of
tie right column of the jungle force attacked a strong
4ickatle of the insurgents, and took and destroyed one
stockade with considerable lo,s to the rebels.

The Calcutta papers state that our military readers will
be glad to leans that it is confidently reported that fifteen
additional regiments are about to be raised, and a military
force will probably soon be established towards the mouth
of the Indus.

By the French mail, this day, it is stated that, by an
extraordinary courier from Vienna, the Funds have risen
there considerably, owing to information from Constanti-
nople that M. Vsrennes has succeeded in his mission to
Ibrahim Paella.

It iv stated that recently Austria, Prussia, and Russia,
have solicited of the King of Holland to alter his disposi-
tion, and hasten the negotiations with Prance and England
to a speedy settlement; if he refuse, he must not expect
any assistance from those Powers, should hostilities recom-
mence.
