SHERIFFS' COURT.
NOVEL POINT AND IMPORTANT DECISION.-WHITE

V. GOFF.

Plaintiff is an hotel-keeper at Wexford, in Ireland, and
defendant a merchant in the city of London, who had acted
in 1852 as agent to the Hon. Mr. Nunn in the election for
the county of Wexford in that year.
Mr. Millett, for the plaintiff, produced an official docu-
ment, signed by the clerk of the peace, and emanating as a
decree from the Sessions Court holden before the assistant
barrister in the county of Wexford, before which tribunal
the case had been tried, and defendant found to be
indebted to the plaintiff in the sum of £5 lls. Bd. for meat,
drink, &c.

Upon reading the document his Honour remarked that
when judgment was obtained in Ireland the bailiffs might
at once take the goods of the debtor. That was a much
more summary process than that of England.
Mr. Moss objected to the document, and contended that
it could not be used as evidence here. He, on the part of
Mr. Goff, was willing to go into the case.
Mr. Millett urged that the judgment had been recovered
in 1857, and that defendant had had plenty of opportu-
nities to set it aside, which he must do at Wexford.

Mr. Moss observed that the bill dated from 1852, and
that defendant was not liable. The amount was for re•
freshments supplied during an election.

His Honour, upon referring to the 14 and 15 Vic., cap.
99, held that this was an action upon the judgment of a
competent court, and that the document put in was evidence
against defendant, who must pay in ten days with costs.

THE RELIGIO US DISSENSIONS IN ST.

GEORGE'

This afternoon, very unfortunately for the somewhat no-
torious parish of St. George's-in-the-East, the riots which
for a year or more have been prevalent there were again
brought under the consideration of the magistrate, Mr.
Selfe, at the Thames Police-court.
Last August the Rev. Bryan King left his parish, in the
hope that the very serious differences between himself and
his parishioners might be forgotten. It happens, unfortu-
nately, that the curate in sole charge has been unable to
conciliate the rival claims of the parishioners, and that dur-
ing the last few weeks the rioting which has hitherto dis-
graced the parish have been revived.
In consequence of this rioting, which obtained its climax
on last Sunday, a meeting of the inhabitants has taken
place, the result of which is contained in the following cor-

respondence :
Sir,—l beg to hand you a copy of a resolution passed
at a meeting last evening, and which by a second resolu-
tion was ordered to be forwarded to you.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
J. B. DAY,
Chairman of the said Meeting.

Sept. 26, 1860,
Mr. Thompson.

(Copy of Resolution.)
This meeting regret that Mr. Churchwarden Thompson
should in the discharge of his duties insult several pa-
rishioners in their parish church, and that he should
refuse to call a public parish meeting, when solicited to
do so, by a requisition signed by a number of rate-
payers; and this meeting are of opinion that such
conduct is an arbitrary stretch of power. In pass-
ing this resolution in reference to Mr. Thompson, this
meeting feel fully aware of the difficult duties he has to
contend with; nevertheless, they think faithful decision
ought to characterise all honourable conduct, and it must
have been long evident that it is impossible for Mr. Thomp-
son to serve the rector and to do justice to the insulted
parishioners ; and this meeting considers closing the
church-gates, and placing the entrance to the church under
surveillance, is an insult to the liberty of the subject.
Joseph Rowe appeared in answer to a summons charging
him with creating a disturbance in the Church on Sunday
last.

The Churchwarden, Mr. Thompson, said on Sunday the
defendant came to the church, and, from certain cir-
cumstances, a seat had been previously set aside
for him. On entering the church he at once proceeded to
the seat of the verger, Cook. lie was told he could not sit
there, but he insisted that he had a right to the
seat. An altercation arose between him and the
♦erger, and a disturbance ensued, which was very much
increased by the noise made by Rowe, who wore wooden
shoes. The services of the day had to be suspended for a
time.

Other witnesses having been examined,
Rowe denied that he had caused the disturbance. He
had a perfect right to a seat in the church, and the disturb-
ance arose because he was obstructed in taking it. He said
there was a conspiracy against him, as he had heard it said
that "he (Rowe) was to be had at any price." He also
wished to have the assistance of a solicitor and time to ob-
tain witnesses to meet the complaint.
Mr. Selfe said he would adjourn the case if it was wished,
but on the attendance of a solicitor he could not allow the
witnesses to be re 'examined, and he must take the evidence
as it stood.

The case was adjourned until Thursday next.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS D 411.)

BOW STREET. ,
ROBBERY AT DEBENIIAM'S AUCTION Rooms.—Wm.
Anderson, a very respectably dressed man, was placed at
the bar, charged with stealing a gold watch, chain, and
diamond ring from the auction rooms of Messrs. Deben-
ham, King-street, Covent-garden.

James Becker said—l reside at Hall-place, Paddington,
and am an engine driver. Yesterday I was sitting in the
auction room of Debenham and Storr, in King-street,
Covent-garden, when I saw the prisoner unhook a gold
watch and guard that was hanging up on view and
draw it along the counter towards him, and put it
into his left hand coat pocket. In a minute or
two he got up and went out. I then looked to
See if the watch had been replaced, and seeing it was still
missing I followed the prisoner, up Rose, street, into Long-
acre. He crossed over and went into a public-house at the
corner of St. Martin's-lane, and then I stood waiting for a
policeman. Before one arrived he came out again, and
went up Long-acre, through some low courts, and passed
Debenham and Storr's Rooms again. I followed the pri-
soner into an oil shop in New-street, and then one of
Debenham's assistants came, and I charged the prisoner
with taking the watch from their auction-rooms. He
denied it, and said ho would not have done such
a thing. When he was taken back to the auction-rooms,
Isaw the gold watch, chain, and diamond ring
(produced) taken from his pocket. The prisoner said some
one must have put it in there, and upon my saying I had
seen him take it from the rack, he said that he must'have
taken it by mistake. The prisoner did not appear to be
worse for liquor.
John Wicks—l am a porter in the service of Messrs.
Storr. About half-past 12 the prisoner was brought into
the rooms by the last witness and one of our assistants.
I had not seen him before ; but prior to that I had missed
lot 207—a gold watch, chain, and ring. When I went down
and found the prisoner the porter had the watch and ap-
pendages in his hand. The property now before me is that
which I had previously missed. It is valued at D. The
prisoner first said he had come back to pay for them, but he
afterwards said that a young man had given them to him,
and after that he said thatoome one must have put them
in his pooket.

Police-constable F 74 said—.At half• past 12 yesterday I
was called to the prosecutor's premises, when the prisoner
was given into my custody for stealing a watch and chain.
He said he had no intention of stealing the property, but
that he took it down to look at it. He refused to give any
address. On being searched £6 Ils. Bd. and some dice were
found in his pockets.

On being asked what he had to say to the charge,
The prisoner said he wished the magistrate would deal
summarily with the case. He would not plead guilty to
stealing the watch, but he would admit having it unlaw-
fully in his possession.
The magistrate said it was too serious a case to deal with
summarily. He should commit him for trial on the charge,
but previous to doing so he would remand him for a week,
to give time to the police to make some inquiries about him.
