SOHERS v ASPIN WILL.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Ttw jury retired at had-past twelve o'clock, but had
not returned into court at the time of going to press.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, before leaving the court,
said he had received a message from the jury, that they
were not likely to agree, and he did not think ho had
any power to oischarge them.
M. BALL, counsel for the plaintiff, said, under those
circumstance, he considered it would not be necessary
for his Lordship to remain.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE —Then I am afraid they
must continue to be locked up.

His Lordship then left the court.
A tew minutes after they entered the court, his
Lordship returned, and they informed him that there
was little chance of agreement among them.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—I am sorry to hear it. I
uppose you wish to be discharged ? The Foreman—
Yes.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—I cannot do that withou
he consent of counsel.

The Foreman—l assure your Lordship there is no
chance of our agreeing to-night.
His LORDSHIP then had no interview with the junior
Counsel on either side in a private room, and on appear-
ing again in the court said, under the circumatances he
thought he ought to discharge them.
