THE .ROYAL BANK OF LIVERPOOL,

A case which excited a great deal of interest came on at
Liverpool, on Friday, just before the close of the assizes.
It was an action brought by Mr. Step lien Watson, a
'gentleman well known in commercial circles, against Mr.
John Bibby, one of the directors of. the bank. The plain-
tiff charged the defendant with having knowingly ismed
an incorrect report in 1863, containing an account of the
profits, losses, and liabilities of the bank for the year, which
induced the plaintiff to purChaSe additional shares in the
bank, and to retain those he had already purchased. Mr.
Bibby, who is a large shipowner, was appointed a director
in 1861, and his family has been connected with the bank
throughout its whole e7.istenee. No personal imputation
was made against him. After the plaintiff's counsel had
opened the case at considerable length, Mr. Justice Hayes
interposed, and said that the question was one of account,
involving inquiries as to the value of securities, ships, and
ships' cargoes, &c., with which a jury could not deal. He
should, therefore, under the Common Law Procedure Act,
refer the case. Mr. Bibby's counsel at first demurred to
this, as he said his client would prefer to submit his
character to a Liverpool jury; but finally he consented,
and a juror was withdrawn. Great disappointment was
felt at this termination of the case, as it had been thought
it would disclose a good deal of the history of the bank,
and the court was thronged before the hour for opening
the proceedings.
