LILBURN.

Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, and a
counsel for the defendant.

Plaintiff, a commercial traveller, upon hie own ac.
count, sought to recover a sum of 5/. 23. 61 for goods
bargained and sold,

From the evidence of the plaintiff it appeared that
plaintiff called upon defendant, a draper, of the High-
street, Bedford, and obtained an order for a quantity of
small paper, and some casing paper. These goods were
sent, and defendant wrote up to plaintiff saying that he
ordered roll paper, and that the other was so much
damaged that he should return it, and expressly desired
Plaintiff not to send any more until defendant saw him
(plaintiff). Plaintiff, however, sent the roll paper, but
defendant refused to receive it.

Mr. Buchanan contended that these were goods bar•
gained and sold, and plaintiff, having completed his son-
tract, was entitled to recover.

Hi 4 Honour—Defendant says that he won't receive
the second lot.

Mr. Buchanan—And thereby seeks to get out of his
order.

His Honour—And does so., The order given by de.
fondant said half a ream of casing, and this order was
signed by defendant. His Honour could not understand
how plaintiff came to change the paper.
Plaintiff—To oblige defendant.
His Honour—You could not oblige defendant to re.
ceive the other paper then. Yon have broken your own
bargain.

Some question then arose as to a larger quantity be-
lug sent than ordered, and plaintiff admitting that he
sent double the quantity, his Honour said that ended
the ease.

Defendant had paid 11. 15s. 2d. into court, and expressly
desired plaintiff not to send any more.
His Honour—Defendant has already paid into court
twice as much as he ordered. This is really too bad.
In each case plaintiff has sent double the quantity or-
dtred.

Mr. Buchanan said plaintiff had completed an order
for goods bargained and sold, and defendant was bound
to receive.

His Honour said it was most important for commerc i•
travellers to attend to the order given. Plaintiff, by
sending double the quantity, bloke his own contract,
and hiN Honour should Had a verdict for defendant with
costs.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
VIOLENT ASSAULT ON THE POET= OF A, WOBX.
HOUSE.—Three determined-looking young fellows, who
gave their names George Morris, 21, Charles Tregare,
23, and David Chandler, 23, were placed at the bar
before Mr. Beadon charged with committing an assault
of a most serious nature on Charles H. Wise, the porter
of the workhouse of St. Martin's-in-the-Fieids.
Josiah Roshier, messenger to the workhouse, said that
on the previous night about 8, he was in the workhouse,
and hearing a scuffle outside in Castle-street, he went
out and found the prisoner Morris scuffling with Wise.
Ho tried his utmost to separate them, and while doing
so the prisoner Tregare ran off. He saw the prisoner
Morris strike Wise several times, and also saw Tregare
kick him.• While scuffling with Morris, Wise did his
best to defend himself, and his face was covered with
blood. When he first went out, Wise said, "These
three fellows have attacked me." Wise had just re-
turned from taking a woman into custody for being
drunk and disorderly, and he believed that was the
cause of the attack on him. While taking Morris into
custody, the prisoner Chandler tried to rescue him from
him by seizing hold of his arm and pulling him. Wise
was Unable to attend owing to the dangerous nature of
the injuries he had received.
The following certificate was here handed in :
"I hereby certify that Charley. W. Wise is suffering
from great pain in the abdomen and back, as also of the
head, arising from varies blows and kicks in those
parts. lie has been delirious, evidencing a severe shock
to the brain. I have seen him this morning, and, al-
though better, is not able to leave his bed ; and I am of
opinion ho will require great care and attention for
some days.

Mr. Beadon said it was a very serious matter indeed,
and asked the prisoners whether they wished to say
any thing.
The prisoners making no reply,
Mr. Bandon said he should remand them for a week,
to see what might happen to the injured man.
Toe woman, named Ellen Bryan, had previously been
charged with drunkenness and violent conduct in the
workhousa, having only just come out of prison for a
similar offence, and was find 103 , or 21 days' hard
