COURT OF COALVON PLEAS, Jan. 24.
(Sittings in Banco.)
DOE DEM. BAINBRIGGE V. BAINBRIGGE.

This important will case came on for argument. The
issue is directed by the Master of the Rolls fur an action
brought to set aside a will made in 1818 by the late
Thomas Bainbrigge, Esq., of Woodseat.Staffordshile, on
the ground of insanity. The plaintiffs are Major-Ge-
neral Bainbrigge and the other nephews of the testator,
and the defendant is John Arnold Bainbrigge, who
claims under the will. The trial took place at the last
Stafford assizes, and occupied five days. The verdict
was for the plaintiff. The facts of the case have been
frequently published. Mr. Keating in the course of last
term obtained a rule nisi calling upon the plaintiff to
show cause why a new trial should not be granted.
The SOLICITOR•GENERAL now appeared to show
cause.

The reading of the judge's notes occupied the wholo
day, and the Learned Counsel had not commenced his
argument when the Court rose.

MIDDL ESEX SESSIONS, Jan. 24.

(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistent•Jndge, and a
Bench of Magistrate:;.)
SEATS ON THE ROOFS OF OMNIBUSES.

The Court sat today at the Guildhall, Westminster,

to hear appeals.
It having been arranged that the question as to the
legality of carrying passengers on a " longitudinal seat

uPon 'ie roof of Oninibuse-s- " would conp,:tinder discus-
sion to-day, in the appeal of

SOPHIA OAYWOOD V. A CONVICTION OF MR. HENRY,
the Court was densely crowded by persons connected
with the various conveyance companies.
Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Huddlestone appeared on behalf
of the Commissioners of Police to support the conviction;
and Mr. M. Chambers, with Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Bal-
lantine, represented the appellant.
This was an appeal by the appellant, the proprietress
of a Bayswater omnibus, against n conviction of Mr,
Henry, one of the magistrates at the Bow-street police-
court, for an offence under the Hackney Carriage Act,
6th and 7th Victoria, cap, 86.
It appeared that the offence committed by the appel-
lant was that of carrying passengers on a longitudinal
seat running along the roof of the omnibus.
Mr. BODKIN now, in support of the conviction, dis-
claimed, on behalf of the Commissioners of Police, coy
feeling of desire to oppress the appellant, whose case
would, of course, decide the future conducting of omni-
bus'-a in regard to these seats on the roof, and de-

dared that the only object of their proceedings in the
matter was to obtain for the public greater security and
greater comfort as they travelled by these conveyances.
Far from their wish, too, was it to deprive the poorer
classes of the means of a cheap transit by these vehicles.
The Learned Counsel then proceeded to contend that
the Act of Parliament made it necessary that every
omnibus should have plainly written upon it the num-
ber of inside and outside passengers respectively
it was constructed to carry, and it also made
every owner carrying a larger number than the vehicle
was constructed to carry in pursugnce of the regulations
and specifications set forth in the Act liable to a penalty
by way of fine. He then urged that the meaning of
the statute was, that " fir, proper, and covenient " sows
were in all cases to be provided for the passengers, and
submitted that the seats on the longitudinal bench on
the roof of an omnibus could not be said to fall within
the meaning of " lit, proper, and conveniently," and
then that a larger number of passengers were carried
by means of those seats than the omnibus was in reali.'„y
constructed for.

A variety of witnesses were called to show that the
seats were unfit, as well as difficult and dangerous to
be attained, seeing that the approaches to them, whether
by means of crawling up the back or of mounting by the
front of the omnibus, were extremely inconvenient, and
especially when the passenger had to descend. Some of
the witnesses spoke, too, of the accidents which they
themselves had either sustained or been witnesses of as
the result of the difficulty of ascending to or descending
from these roof seats. It was likewise proved that com-
plaints had been made by the inside passengers of the
dirty boots of these roof passengers being allowed to be
put upon the sill of the window in the door at the back
of the omnibus as the wearers were either getting up or
coming down from their elevated sittings, and that it had
not uufrequently occured that a gentleman, when alight-
ing from the inside, had been unpleasantly hastened in
that operation by finding the feet of a descending roof-
rider fixing upon his hat or shoulders. It was further
given in evidence that women were sometimes compelled
to mount the roof, and that in their attempt to accom-
plish that object indecent exposures were of common oc-
currence.

The case in support of the conviction having been
brought to a conclusion,
_ _

CHAMBEIP.;, on behalf of the appellant, submitted
that his Learncd Friends had failed to make out any
case within the meaning of the Act of Parliament, to the
effect that tho seats were either " ur:lit, improper, or
inconvenient."

The Learned JUDGE, after some discussion between
the Learned Counsel as to a case being sent to the Court
of Queen's Bench, said the Court were unanimous in the
opinion that omnibus proprietors had a right to have
those seats along the roof of the vehicle so long as they
provided the sixteen inches in width for each passenger,
and had written upon the vehicle the number of pas-
sengers it was constructed to carry, those seats, of course,
being " fi,, proper, and convenient." They were also of
opinion that these seats were " fit, proper, and conve-
nient." The only difficulty really appeared to be the
means by which the passengers ascended to and descended
from the roof. As to the provision of a proper mode of
" ascending and descending," not one word was said in
the Act, but the opinion of the Court upon that
point was that the present system in that respect, as far
as the evidence had as yet gone, was very bad, very in-
convenient, and very dangerous; but it was manifet,t
that a remedy could be easily and readily found by means
of the application of another step and a leathern strap or
handle affixed to the hinder end of the omnibus, which
passengers might use in their ascent to or descent from
the seats on the roof. He saw a large number of per-
sons in court who appeared to be influentially connected
with omnibuses, and be hoped they would adopt the
suggestions which he, not in his legal character, but as
a private individual, had just thrown out.
Mr. CHAMBERS then at great length conteaded that
the conviction could not be sustained.

A large number of witnesses were called, who stated
that having ridden almost daily on the roof of omnibuses
they considered them perfectly safe, and that the means
of ascent and descent were not dangerous.
A proprietor of the name of Wilson said that his om-
nibuses had for a long time carried some thousands of
passengers daily, and that he had never had any com-
plaint or accident. _ _ _

ARA]

Another stated that he had been the manager of the
Paddington Company, that during his time their staff of
omnibuses made as many as 1,320 journeys daily, and
that they had never had either complaint or accident.
Mr. BODKIN replied.
The COURT then allowed the appeal, and ordered the
conviction to be quashed.
The Court sat to an unusually late hour, and was op-
pressively crowded to the last moment.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Thomas Brown, a person of gentlemanly appearance,
was brought before Alderman Hooper upon the charge
of having cheated at cards.

Mr. Hobler appeared. for the prosecution, and Mr.
Wontner for the defence.
The case, which lasted for a considerable time, excited
much curiosity and interest.
Mr. Hobler said, that on the preceding night a ball
had been given at the London-tavern for the benefit of
one of the excellent institutions connected with the
licensed victuallers of the metropolis, and that some of
the company retired to rooms in which cards were
played ; that the defendant joined a party at cards, and
that, suspicion having been entertained that he was
playing a "sharp" game, he was watched, and detected
in cheating in a manner not to be doubted, and handed
over to the custody of the officers of police, who con.
ducted him to the station-house. Mr. Hob'er said, the
prosecction was instituted under the Bth and 9th Vic-
toria, cap. 17, which punished with transportation for
seven years the misdemeanour with which the defendant
was charged.
Mr. Robert Whitehead, of No. 98, Whitecross-street,
licensed victualler, said—l was last night at the ball at
the City of London Tavern, in Bishopsgate-street. Games
of cards were played in some of the rooms. I joined in
the game of limited 100. The limit was half a guinea.
The defendant played with me. There were three
others who played, two of whom appeared to be friends
of the defendant and were not known to me. The play
began between eleven and twelve o'clock, and continued
three or four hours. I played a couple of hours, during
which time he was there. I was perfectly sober all the
time, and I lost between 3/. and 41. to the defendant.
I observed his mode of play, and watched him very
narrowly in consequence of what was mentioned
to me by a gentleman (Here the witness de-
scribed the game of leo.) I saw him take
a card from behind his collar. It was the ace of
clubs. It had been dealt to him, and he bad passed
it into the collar of his coat, inside. I seized that card in
his hand, and I showed it to the gentlemen who were
playing with him. Ido not know whether clubs were
trumps at the time. There were about five playing at
the time. The defendant wanted to make a shuffle of it.
There was no officer then in the room, but I went down
and brought up one, and gave the defendant into
custody.
Cross-examined by Mr. Wontner—l do not know who
had put into the pool at the time. This occurrence put
an end to the game. I prevented that card from being
played. I did not seine the money in the pool, and I
have not 51. 103. of his. There was some drinking going
on at the time. It was about five o'clock in the morning
when it took place. I was one of the committee, and I
fetched up two bottles of wine. There was some brandy
and water also drunk. I do not know who was the
dealer of the cards at the time, nor did I see the cards
dealt round. I had stopped playing before that time. I
had been loood, and I refused to pay a guinea, as I con-
sidered it to be an impoaition. A person who lost 101.
at play had gone away.
RL-examined—l am not skilled in the game.

iolde;;;;;VooPEß—Was the defendantplaying during
,he whole time you were losing your money? Witnes,

—He was. -
Mr. Jamds Young, of No. 13, Buckingham place,
Fitzroy•equare, licensed victualler, said—l joined in the
game. We first played %hist, and then 100. The de-
fendant was one of the party from the time we brgsn
until we left off. We played,l think, about half-a-dozm
hours. I was quite sober. There were two players
who, I believe, were connccted with the defendant, but

they were strangers to me. We begets with eighteen-
penny 100, but, at the wish of the detendant, we raised it
to a guinea. I lost nearly 101. at the table to the person
who won, and who was fire times out of six the priso-
ner, for Lc wither held the ace or the highest card. I ob-
served that he held the ace or the king more frequently
than any other person at the table. I dealt at the time the
defendant was detected. There were five of us playing
then at guinea 100, and I think I ir.td contributed to
the pool at the time. I had paid three shillings, or a
half-crown and a sixpence into the pool. As dealer, I
turned up trumps. The game was broken up by the
intimation given by Mr. Whitehead, whom I saw go and
take a card from the back of the defendaut's collar. I
had then dealt three cards to the defendant. If the ace
had been played it would have given him the game.
Cross-examined by Mr. Wontner—l did not make a
misdeal that time. I turned up the three of clubs. I
should not like to swear that Par. Brown had taken up his
cards at the time. There might have been halt a dozen
at the table looking on. I snatched up Si. 10s., the de-
fendant's money, and I believe another person picked up
21. I have got the 51. 10a, which I took up is the ex-
citement of the moment.

On his re-examination the witness said the defendant
was at times loved. He won upwards of 201.
Alderman HoopEa—Did he turn up the ace fre-
quently? Witness—He did. I saw the king of hearts
come out of his sleeve too.

Mr. George Bennett, of the Archway Cottage, Upper
Holloway—l was present in the card-room an saw Mr.
Whitehead (the defendant) and others playing. My at-
tention, as one of the committee, was drawn to the table
at which the defendant sat. I observed him for ten
minutes, and saw all that was passing. There were, I
think, six or raven, and among them were two others,
besides the defendant, who were not known to me. I
was so situated as to be able to see the cards •which the
defendant held, and a gentleman had told me what he
had been doing. I first saw him put the ace of spades
behind his collar, and when spades were not trumps, he
did not play it, but when they were he pulled it out and
played it. Mr. Whitehead was then playing. There were
several other deals, and I saw the defendant put the card
behind in the same place three or four different
times. Whenever a card came out trom behind his
collar it was an ace. I saw it five or six different times.
There was a little disturbance about some play, and Mr.
Whitehead left the table and Would not play any more.
I communicated something to him of what I had ob-
served, and be stood with me; and I saw the defendant
put another card behind his collar, and Mr. Whitehead
immediately took the card out of his hand—the ace of

Cross-examined by Mr. Wnntner—l saw the ace cf
spades distinctly in the palm of his hand. People would
consider when he put his hand to the back of his collar
that he was scratching his head.—(A laugh.)
Mr. Wontner—Why did you nut go forward at once
and expose what you say you saw ? Witness—l did
not like to do it till I was fully convinced of the fact.
Alderman HOOPER—Did you two the ace of spades
put back by the defendant when spades were not trumps,
and drawn out when they were? Witness—l did.
Mr. B. F. Fowler, proprietor of the Falcon, Essex•
street, Bethnal-green, said—l was present in the card-
room, and I saw Mr. Whitehead and Mr. Young put
down money and lose it. The prisoner took two tricks,
and one of the strangers took one. I saw Mr. White-
head and Mr. Young lose frequently, and I warned Mr.
Whitehead to leave the table, beic; convinced that cheat-
ing was' going on. Mr. Whitehead went round, and
soon afterwards said, " Gentlemen, you are playing with
a blackleg!" and at the same time he disclosed the ace
of clubs. There was great confusion. Another gentle-
man who spas playing lost 81. or 101.

Mr. John BittterCld, a licensed victualler—l played
and lost 3/. The defendant won, and took the money
six or seven times. I thought I could play moderately
well, but ho always got the ace or king to beat me.—(A
laugh.) I did not think I had been cheated till I was
informed. I had left off playing two hours.
Alderman HOOPER—You had had enough, I suppose?
Witness—Yes, quite enough.—(Laughter.)
The ALDERMAN then consented to take as bail two
sureties for 1001. each, and the defendankto enter into
his own security to the amount of 2001,, to appear at the
Central Criminal Court ❑ext session.
THAMES.

William East, aged 18, of 39, London-street, Rataliff,
was brought up for final examination. He stands charged
with manslaughter in shooting Robert Ablett, a la-
bourer, on the afternoon of the 16th inst.

The prisoner was fully committed to Newgate for trial

SOUTHWARK.

George Foster and Caroline, his wife, were, placed at
the bar before Mr. A'Beckett, charged with neglecting
their children, and causing them to be in a starving Con-
dition.

Mr. A'BECKETT said, the case was one exhibiting
great neglect of the children by their parents, and that
the parochial officer had acted very properly in having it
investigated. He should remand the prisoners, but
would accept bail for the appearance of the man, whose
conduct, however blameable in the transaction, was not
so bad as the woman's.

Theprisoners were then remanded, and it appears that
Foster contrived to commit suicide yesterday morning in
the county gaol.

TRADE OP LEEDS.—There has been little done at our
Cleth Halls since this day week; this is principallY as-
cribed to the circumstance of the merchants generally
having purchased pretty freely some time age, in antici-
pation of au advance consequent on the rise in price
wool at the London sales, and the demand for the spring
not yet having set in; their stocks are ample for the pre'
sent demand, and they aro generally holding off pumas;
tug; prices are look up. Stocks are low for the season, and
their continues to be a fair amount of goods delivered to
the shipping houses to order, yet business has been Mee°
as usual in the warehouses at this season of the year as
regurda the home trade.
BRADFORD MARKET, JAN. 23.—Wools—There
very lime uhauge in either the demand or the quantif
of wool coming to market, The country dealers lire a
firm at prices beyond what can bo realised here. Neils
and Brokes are firm, from the small quantity makilli;'
Yarns—There is no marked alteration in the transit'''.
tiona iu ti a7us, and but little is doing, except for abs''
lute consumption, both for this market and Lancashit '
Pieces—There is a deal of inquiry for goods suitable fe r'
spring, and the chief thing in favour is mixed goods.v'
which are produced in great variety, and made from as'
many kinds of material. Orleans and Coboargs are"
taken iu limited quantity, and prices without change.
TRADE OF MANCHESTER, JAN. 03.—There.has beet
no material change in tee aspect of the cloth and Pr°
market since Tuesday, but it any thing there has been 6
rather better feeling, and prices are slightly firmer.
Altogether there has seen a fair amount of business. 0
LEICESTER TRADE.—Very little change has take
place is the trade since our last repute. The 11011°st
•
caution is manifested in all departments as to the resat!
facture of goods; nor will there be any increased acti-
vity
till orders for goods are received, so little elislictea
are manufacturers to make upon speculation or in anti-
cipation.—Nottingham Journal.
NOTTINGHAM. lltADE.—Lace—The business of the
-
week has been rather larger than tor many weeks Pass:,
and although this is not to be taken as a signet Pert?
neat improvement, still there is a general impressin.
that we havelundoubtedly seen the worst, and that in r
short time we shall have the pleasure of reporting a statue
of trace of a decidedly wholesome character. IlesierY
Most branches of this business are in a healthy conditi°:
particularly those of hose and glove?, fabricated of the
various materials of which they are composed. '12:4
shirr, drawer, and pantaloon trade is not quite in
active state it would be desirable to see it in, but these
now absolutely necessary articles of comfort must be lu
request very soon. The price of yarn is firm, with a
fair demand; and there is a prospect of a further
plc
ad-
vance, if the high rates obtained in Liverpool this °l-
am maintained for a short time.—Nottingham Journal

NEWBURY, JAN. 23.—We have only a small supply of
Wheat iu offer to-day, most of which is the remains of
previous markets. The demand to-day is better than of
late, and we have to report a larger clearance at the
fullest rates of last week. Barley, moderate supply;
fine making, free sale at rather enhanced rates; other
descriptions in fair demand, at fully the prices of last
week. Beans, oats, and peas, short supply, with a fair
demand, and late rates firmly supported.
LIVERPOOL, JAN, 24,—At this day's market there
was a fair attendance of the town and country trade, and
a moderate amount of business was done in wheat and
flour at the full prices of Tuesday. Oats and oatmeal met
with little inquiry, but were not offered on lower terms.
Barley, beans, and peas without change either in value
or demand. Indian corn was in brisk request, and an
advance of 6d per quarter was realised in the sales
made.
EXETER, JAN. 24.—Pork Carcases—A large supply,
which has been salting at 6s to 7s per score. Pannier—
Turkeys, 55 to 103 each; geese, 5s to 6s; ducks, 4s to
53 6d per couple; fowls, 2a 9d to 4s; galenas, 5s to 6s;
pheasants, 6s to 6a 6d; partridges, 3s to 3s 6d; wood-

6d to 5s 6d; bares, 3s each; rabbits, Is; pigeons, is 9d
per couple; butter, is Id per lb; eggs, 18 for Is. Cattle
Market—The supply to-day was again moderate, but
there was a tolerable demand. Good beef sold at 7s to
8a per score; but in some cases the latter price was ex-
ceeded. Barreners of a tolerable description were worth
quite 5s per score. Good cows and calves sold freely,
prices ranging from 71 to 131. Corn Exchange—The
market to-day continues inactive, and we can quote no
alteration in the figures which have for some times ruled.
Best English wheat is 5s per bushel, and the price ranges
between 4s 6d and ss. In foreign wheat, some dark
coloured Syrian was offered at 34s per quarter, and
Polish Odessa at 38s, both of course very much inferior
in quality to our English wheat. Barley for malting
continues about 3s per bl. Oats is 10d to 2a do, fine
flour, 27s to 29s per sack of 280 lbs, the more general
figure being 28s.
BRISTOL bUGA.R Ailartravr, JAN. 24.—Our raw sugar
market continues without animation, and the transactions
since our last are exceedingly limited, at again rather
lower prices. Refiners' produce has been in better de-
mand, and some largo sales have been effected since our
last, chiefly in wet goods, but on easier terms. Rum is
very fit m, and in good demand.—Bristol Mercury.
BANGOR, JAN. 24.—Our market to-day was moderately
attended, but nothing of importance passing in any kind
of grain, the demand of most articles having been on a
limited scale; prices of this day week were scarcely

RATHER TOO SOON.—On Tueeday, at Warringtovr
a tradesman's wife (not a paragon of mildness or good tem-
per), who had been ill for a short time, was thought to have'
breathed her last, and her husband ordered her to be laid out
and washed, and the shutters of the shop to be put uy,;
when lo! and behold, on touching her with the water (wl3lc",i
was perhaps too warm for corpse) the women were surprise'
by her sitting up and asking them what they were doing--;
" Did they mean to scald her?" The women were ordered
away, the shutters were taken down, and the lady still lives-
