ROLLS COURT.--(THIS DAY.)

Nothing of public interest took place in this Court to-day.
His Honour took further directions and costs, nearly the
whole of which set down before him he disposed of.

VICE-CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY.'

JUDGMENT.—ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. HARRIS.
His HONOUR gave judgment this morning in the case in
which the information was filed by the Attorney-General at
the relation of the inhabitants of Christ Church, Blackfriars,
for the purpose of obtaining the opinion of the Court, whether
under the will of a Mr. Marshall, and in the events that had
happened, the surplus funds arising under that will could be
appropriated to the increase of the salary of the rector, Mr.
Mapleton, so as to relieve the inhabitants of the parish from
that payment. Many years ago Mr. Marshall left certain pro-
perty to be invested for the purpose of founding a church,
to be called Christ Church, and also for the maintenance
of a minister. Christ Church, as it at present existed, was
built from the funds of that 'gentleman ; the stipend left by
him for the rector (401. a year) was found inadequate, and a
suit was instituted many years back for the purpose of taking
the opinion of the Court upon the subject, and the salary was
increased to 601. This sum had also been found inadequate for
the support of the rector, and an Act was passed in the 57th
of George 111., on the construction of which it was ar-
gued, on behalf of the relations, that the surplus fund
of Mr. Marshall's Charity was applicable to the pay-
ment of the salary of the rector, as it at present
existed (400/. a-year.) On the part of the trustees of the
Charity it was contended that an information was a mere ex-
pedient to relieve the parishes from the rate which was levied
upon them for the support of the clergyman, under the 57th
George 111. Upon these points the case was argued some-
time since, and his Honour this morning gave judgment, stating
that in accordance with the opinion of Lord Hardwicke, Lord
Talbot and Lord King, he would declare that the present
surplus of the revenues received by the Trustees of Mr.
Marshall's charity were applicable to the increase of
the income of the Rector and the other Ecclesiastical
provisions for the benefit of Christ Church, which were
contemplated by his will, but that they were not appli-
cable to the relief of the parishioners from the rates imposed
upon them by the act of the 57th of George 111. Such being
the opinion of the Court, his Honour would refer it
to the Master, to inquire what the present income
of the Rector of Christ Church was, and what addition
ought to be made, and whether there were any other purposes
connected with the charity that required augmentation, giving
liberty to the master to state special circumstances.

LITHOTRIPTICK HOSPITAL.—We beg to call the
attention of our readers to a letter in our advertising
columns from his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex
to the Baron Heurteloup, wherein his Royal Highness,
after fully satisfying himself by the minutest inquiries
regarding the Baron's valuable invention for curing
one of the most painful afflictions to which the human
frame is subject, condescends to become Patron of the
Institution, by which the poor may have the benefit
'of this inestimable invention. The Baron's remedy is
not by quack medicine, but is effected by a series of
most ingenious instruments which supersede the ap-
palling operation of lithotomy.
LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, JULY 14.—We
continue to have a steady demand for cutton. The sales to-
day are from 2 500 to 3,000 bags of all kinds. Maranhams,
1 lid. ; Bahias, 10-ad. ; Boweds, lid. to 91d. ; Orleans, Bd.
to 9d. ; and Alabamas and Mobiles, 7d. to 9d. per lb.
LouTit.—The farmers have found a ready sale for
their wool at from 38s. to 435. from the enormous quantity
of buyers in Louth and the neighbourhood, who scour the
country round, and beset every farmer, great and small, as
they come to market.—Boston Herald.
NEW PRINCIPLE FOR MAKING BUTTER.--A
lot of butter, consisting of GO firkins, has lately appeared in the
Waterford market, made in the county of Tipperary, upon a
new principle—being seasoned with saltpetre and brown sugar,
in place of salt. Its quality was very prime, and such as to
obtain 825., while the general run of prices for first quality
was 755. to 78s.

Cherries have not been so plentiful in Kent for the
last fifty years. They are hawked about at Maidstone literally
in cart loads, at a penny per pound. The crop of apples is
also good, but pears, plums, and filberts are a failure.
A provincial bank direct has absconded, leavin
a considerable debt in the concern he was attached to. Seveng
of the named directors of the new National Bank have dis-
claimed any connexion with the concern.—Cork Paper.
RAISING TILE WIND IN INDIA.—His Highness
the Rao Raja of Alwar has at last adopted a fixed and regu-
lar plan for raising a revenue from his thankless subjects.
There are seven or more Dewans, of equal dignity in the
presence, who take the business of state in turn. When the
first has gone his rounds of the zemindars and traders, levy..
ing personal tribute on all to the utmost of their means, he is
incarcerated until he yields up a fair portion of these receipts
to the Raja. Meanwhile, this Minister being got into prison,
the second Dewan begins to run the same career, and is suc-
ceeded by the third, when ready to relieve his predecessor in
durance. The simplicity and cheapness of this system is
thought a great improvement on former measures.--Delhi
Gazette, Jan, 11.
