LAW INtELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lords Justices.)
APPEAL.-EDWARD WOOD V. MARJORIBANI(S.

Mr. Malin, Q.C., resumed and concluded his argument
For the appellant in this part-heard appeal this morning.

had been drinking, and smelt very strongly of gin. " You
are a liar," was the reply, accompanied with an expressive
and very sanguinary expletive and a tremendous blow on
the shoulder, which was followed up by a volley of abuse.
She was turned out of the hospital, and not allowed to enter
it again. She had beaten her husband since she came out
of the hospital, and threatened his life.
Mr. Selfe said the prisoner was a violent woman, and
sentenced her to be imprisoned for two mouths, or pay £5.
She was committed.

Mr. Schomberg followed on the same side.
This is an appeal from an order of Vice-Chancellor Sir
John Stuart, decreeing specific performance of the contract
of sale of the glebe lands, benefice, and advowson of the
rectory of Heasley, in the parish of Northwarwick, Wales.
The plaintiff purchased the advowson for £2,600, but
wanted an abatement of the price on the ground that there
was a charge of the interest of £6OO paid out of Queen
Anne's bounty for building a house for the inucumbent ;
that he was either entitled to an abatement of the price or
to have the contract of sale rescinded.

Lord Justice Knight Bruce and Lord Justice Turner
were decidedly of opinion that there were no grounds what-
ever for rescinding the contract.
Lord Justice Knight Bruce said that every person in
England, from Cumberland to Cornwall, was perfectly well
acquainted with the fact, that when money was borrowed
from Queen Anne's Bounty for the building of a parsonage,
that part of the principal and the whole 'lathe interest was
payable for a term of years out of the beilace.
Their Lordships affirmed the decree of Vice-Chancellor
Sir John Stuart, decreeing specific performance of the con-
tract and dismissing the plaintiff's bill with costs, and their
Lordships also dismissed the appeal with costs.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before Lord Campbell and a Special Jury.)

SMITH V. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY.

On taking his seat this morning Lord Campbell inquired
whether the jury had agreed to their verdict.
The jury having been called into court were asked
whether they had agreed.

The foreman said they had not, and there was no pro-
bability that they would agree.
Lord Campbell said he regretted that the jury could not
have come to a conclusion upon what he thought a very
obvious matter. He might keep the jury if he liked, and
he was not quite sure whether he ought not to adopt that
course. He should, however, dismiss them.

The jury were then discharged without coming to a ver-
dict—another unsuccessful phase of a case which has often
been before the Courts.

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.)
THE CORPORATION AND BILLINGSGATE MARKET—
iluoth-rrr V. cuArigiNo.

Plaintiff is a costermonger, and defendant is the clerk to
the market. A gentleman attended from the City Solici-
tor's office for the defendant. The action was brought to
recover the sum of Hs. for one half barrel of herrings,
alleged to have been detained by the defendant. It ap-
peared that, upon a certain day, plaintiff bought some
herrings, which he deposited in a certain place. They had
been there for a very short time when a man named Hallam,
employed by the defendant, took the herrings and put them
in the lock-up, and Gearing stood by at the time. Plain-
tiff asked what they were going to do with his herrings,
and he was informed that he had caused an obstruction and
that his herrings would be locked up. Plaintiff saw de-
fendant a few days afterwards, and spoke to him upon the
subject, when he was informed that it was his own fault,
and the law must take its course. Plaintiff then told de-
fendant he should summon him.
_

For the defence it was urged that the plaintiff had ren-
dered himself liable to a penalty of £5 for creating an
obstruction in a public market. The facts of the case were
that plaintiff had left his barrel of herrings in a part of the
market out of the limits. When Hallam saw the herrings
no one was near them, and they were taken to the usual
place, where every person could find them. There was a
law which empowered the magistrate to inflict a penalty
upon the plaintiff.
His Honeur—There is no bye-law authorising you to
lock up. these packages. You should have a bye-law. It
is most absurd: Yell have a law authorising you to fine
offenders, and yet you have not a most simple bye-law
authorising you to lock the goods up.
Solicitor—lt is customary.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Hih Honour—But you have no law for the purpose.
John Hallam was then called, and said that when he
found the herrings no one was near them. After he had
taken the herrings away, plaintiff came up and said, " What
are you doing with those herrings ?" Hallam replied, " I
am going to lock them up; and if the owner comes for
them, I shall summon him before the Lord Mayor."
Plaintiff then walked away.

Other witnesses deposed that the herrings were on the
pathway, and that Hallam was looking for the owner before
he took them away. Any person knew where to find them.

It was then contended that Hallam was a constable of
the market, and had locked up the herrings upon his own
responsibility. Gearing was not responsible.
His Honour said, upon the evidence before him, he must
find for defendant, but he recommended the defendant to
get some power by a bye-law to seize these things.
