LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

THE COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before Lord Justice Cairns.)

BA.XENDALE V. 3141.11YRRAY.
This was a case in which the plaintiff Baxendale
sought to restrain thedefendant M‘Murray, a paper-
maker, from carrying on the operations of his ma-
nufacture on the ground that the processes employed
by him were, injurious, and that they poisoned an
adjoining stream called the Chess, and rendered its
waters obnoxious to the general health of the neigh-
bourhood.
The action came before the court on an appeal
from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Stuart, who
had decided in favour of the defendant. The ar-
guments were heard by Lord Justices Turner and
Cairns, the former of whom has since died, conse-
quently Lord Justice Cairns, under the provisions
of a new act of Parliament, proceeded to deliver
judgment alone this morning. In a very elaborate
statement of the facts connected with the case, he
said that the allegations on the part of the
plaintiff were, that the water coming from the
plaintiff's mills mingled with the stream li
called the Chess, and produced upon its sur-
face a scum which emitted an obnoxious vapour,
and which, in the evening, was particularly
offensive to the districts around. There was another
allegation that a lady who had been a visitor at the
house of Mr. Baxendale was so affected by the un-
wholesome smell arising from it that before she
had resided there a week she was taken ill and
obliged to return home. A third allegation went to
prove that the deadly character of the liquid which
in the processes of manufacture mingled with the
stream might be tested by the fact that a fish
called the " Jack," which was a fish of very hardy
habits, could not live in the portion of the stream
impregnated by this outflow. The petition, therefore,
desired that on these grounds Mr. M'Murray should
be restrained from making use of the chess as a
means of getting rid of the refuse flowing from his
mill, which would virtually be to prevent him
from carrying on his business. On the other
hand, Mr. M'Murray had produced the most
satisfactory scientific evidence to prove that
the stream was perfectly pure, and that fish
lived and abounded in it. Taking all this evi-
dence into consideration, he (the learned Lord
Justice) could come to no other decision than to
dismiss the appeal with costs, thereby confirming
the decision of Vice-Chancellor in favour of Mr.
M M urray.

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls.)
IN ItE MATTHEWS-JUDGMENT.

His Lordship, in delivering judgment on this
case to-day, said that yesterday he had some
doubts on the subject at issue ; but having
read over the affidavits his mind was satis
fled. The case came before the Court on the
construction of a will. The testator left certain
moneys, with interest accruing thereon, to be di-
vided equally amongst four parties—namely, John
and Susan Emblem, Elizabeth Parker, and Eliza-
beth Esther, the share of each, in the event of their
dying childless, to b 3 divided amongst the survivors.
There was no doubt, as regarded that part. of the
will, but a question arose on construction of other
passages in the instrument. The testator provided,
in the case where any of the legatees had issue, and
such issue dying without children after the death of
same, the interest lie or she possessed should be di-
vided amongst the legatees, or amongst her brothers
and sisters. Susan Emblem bad one child, which
was deceased, and therefore she was to be taken
as having no issue, and her share was to be divided
amongst the other legatees. Mrs. Esther had chil-
dren, and one of them dying after it was questioned
how the interest of the same should be divided. He
had no doubt on the point—it must pass to the
other children.
Decree accordingly.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn).
IN BE BRANDON.-NO OWE LEFT TO CLAIM A

DIVIDEND.

In this case, a bankruptcy of 26 years' standing,
Mr. Rook made an application to his honour for
permission to advertise a sum of £1,500. The
failure occurred so many years ago that proceedings
had been lost ; the assignees were dead, and there ap-
peared now to be no one left to claim a dividend.
There had been some Chancery proceedings arising
out of the bankruptcy, and a sum of £1,500 was
received a short time since. The matter was duly
advertised.

His Honour—And no one claimed it ?
Mr. Rook—No. We now wish to advertise the
money again.

His honour—Very proper. If no one answers
does the money go to our fund?
Mr. Rook—l believe it goes to the descendants
of the bankrupt.

liis honour—That is very just. The advertise-
ment may be inserted.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBING A POLICE SERCEFANT. —Mary Reynolds, a young
woman, was charged before Mr. Tvrwhitt with being fouid
in the house No. '2, Bentinek-street, supposed for an un-
lawful purpose.

John Clark, a lodger at 2, Bentinck-stroet, said that on
going home the previous night about twelve o'clock, and
letting himself in with a latch key, he found the prisoner
on the stairs. 115 asked her what she wanted, and she
said she was waiting for a young woman who had gone
into the second floor front room, but it so happened that
that was his own room, and he had the key in his pocket.
The prisoner was afterwards given into custody.
Sergeant Horsey, 6 0, tho occupier of the house, said that
on Friday last a robbery was committed in his house, and
on the prisoner being searched at the station two dupli-
cates wore found. Ile had been to the pawnbrokers and
found the duplicates related to articles of clothing stolen
from him. A key was also found on the prisoner, which
would open the street door.

Mr. Tyrwhitt inquired if the pawnbrokers were in at-
tendance, and the sergeant said they were not; but there
was another chargo of robbery against the prisoner.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said as the prisoner must necessarily be
remanded for the attendance of the pawnbrokers, the other
charge could then bo gono into.
The prisoner was remanded.

A SON CHARGING lIIS—MOTHRR.—EIIen Keene, a
tailoress, living in Cecil-court, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with being drunk and wilfully damaging a bed
the property of her son, John Keene, a tailor, living at 50,
Brewer-street, Golden-square. ...

The complainant said that yesterday afternoon his
he was at dinner, she
being
gdr carunmkeattothheistlinloed,ging while
and
threw
the plates about the
room. She then set to tearing up the bed and throwing it
on the fire, and he had to extinguish the fire to prevent the
place being burnt.
The prisoner said she went up to the room with her key,
and took a potato off the complainant's plate, when he
jumped off his board and kicked her in the eye, pulled her
round the room by the hair of her head, and nearly choked
her.

_..
George Phillips, 41 C, said that on being called to the
house to take the prisoner into custody ho found her lying
on the stair drunk with her head injured.

-----
The complainant said the injury was caused through tho
prisoner falling about.
Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered the prisoner to pay tho damage,
208, and a fine of Gd, or to go to prison for a fortnight.

Great Demonstration of Conservatives at

York.

Recent events have called forth in this country
the institution of various Conservative Working
Men's Associations, for the better organisation of
the• conservative interest. Amongst the many of
these institutions so recently formed a very vigorous
and strong one has been instituted at York, and the
result has been that yesterday an aggregate meeting
of the Conservative and Constitutional Associations
of Yorkshire was held in the Festival Concert Room,
York.

The proceedings commenced by a meeting of de-
legates from the different associations in the county,
when various formal matters were discussed, and a
code of rules for future government decided upon.
Another meeting, open to the public, was held
the same afternoon in the same place, when a very
large and influential assemblage of Conservatives
took place.
Amongst those present we noticed the lion. Ad-
miral Duncombe, M.P., J. Lowther, Esq., M.P.,W.
Busfeild Ferrand, Esq., W. Worsley, Esq., W. D•
Husband, Esq., W. H. R. Read, Esq., M.P., &c.
Admiral Duncombe, M.P., was called to the
chair, and he briefly addreased the meeting to show
that the determination of the Conservative party
was to support constitutional principles, and not
to be led away by the vile machinations of such
men as Mr. Bealcs.

Mr.HOLMES, of Leeds, the general secretary, then
read the report, which alludes to the fact that many
years ago a small Conservative association had been
formed in Leeds, and since that time the principle
had attained large proportions, and the report san-
guinely expressed its hope that its influence would
be soon felt all over the country. (Applause.)

The Rev. J. H.:F. KENDALL, of Leeds, briefly
moved that the report be received and adopted.
Mr. ROPER, Batley (working man), in seconding
the motion, very eloquently and emphatically urged
upon the meeting the fact that to the Conservative
party the working men of this country were largely
indebted for a great amelioration of their condition
and their social elevation, therefore he hoped that
they would not forget to whom they were indebted
for the recent large and excellent extension in the
representation of this country, and that when an
election should take place a very great proportion
of her Majesty's present advisers would be returned.
(Loud and prolonged applause.)
The motion was then agreed to.
Mr. WORSLEY, Hovinghatn, then proposed the
following resolution :—" That this conference ex-
presses its gratification at the formation of Conser-
vative and constitutional associations, especially
amongst working men, and pledges itself to assist
in their extension throughout the country." (Ap-

plause.)
Mr. CLARK, Leeds (working man), seconded the
resolution.

The motion was then agreed to.
Mr. BOWER, Welham, proposed—" That this
conference requests the secretaries and the council
of the Yorkshire Union to issue an address to the
Conservatives of Yorkshire for aid and support to
this association." Ile said, not being possessed of
the eloquence of the two preceding speakers, he
should simply remind them that "it is money that
makes the mare to go." (Laughter.)
Mr. BARBER, Halifax (working man), seconded
the resolution.

Mr. FRANCE, of Batley (working man), volunta-
rily made a very eloquent speech, demonstrative of
the perfect nature of the machinery as developed by
these associations.

The resolution was then put to the meeting and
carried with applause.
Sir DIGBY CAI-LEY, on rising to move the next
resolution, could not refrain from expressing the
pride and gratification he felt at the heartiness,
eloquence, and good feeling displayed in the speeches
of the working men who had preceded him. Ile then
moved, " That this conference desires to impress
upon all members of associations the groat need of
their individually paying diligent and immediate
attention to rendering all the assistance they cau to
the registering of 'rotors in their respective localities."
(Applause.)
Mr. IloLmEs, the secretary, seconded the resolu-
tion.

The CHAIRMAN put the motion to the meeting,
and it was carried unanimously.
Mr. B. FERRAND then moved a vote of thanks to
the chairman, a proposition which was received with
three hearty cheers.
Mr. BURRILL, York, seconded, and Mr. ilunsT
(both working men), supported the motion.
The CHAIRMAN explained that his nephew, Lord
Feversham, would have been present that day to
take the chair, but for his very important duties
keeping him in his place in the House of Lords. He,
the chairman, frequently sat in the House of Com-
mons and admired the eloquence of Mr. Bright, but
he did not admire his principles; on the contrary,
he admired not only the speeches made that day,
but their principles also. (Applause.)
The proceedings then terminated.

BURKE T S.--This day.

MARK LANE.

The supply of English wheat was again limited, but the
show of foreign samples was moderately extensive. The
sale for both red and white qualities of English was dull,
and Monday's prices were with difficulty supported. For
foreign the demand was of quite a retail character; never-
theless, Monday's values were unchanged.
The floating grain cargo trade ruled steady at firm
prices.

The supply of barley, both English and foreign, was
very scanty, and for both grinding and distilling qualities
prices were firmly supported.
We have no change to notice in the malt trade.
Tho quotations remain as on Monday last.
Oats were in good supply and sluggish request. Fine
parcels supported previous terms, but inferior and heated
kinds ruled rather cheaper.
Beans and peas met a dull inquiry at late rates.
Cakes remain steady, but in agricultural seeds there is
little passing.

The flour trade is firm at full currencies.

DXSPATCH OF BUSINESS AttuUDGES CHAMBERS.
The Act to provide for the be despatch of business in
the Chambers of the Judges of the Common Law Courts was
yesterday printed. It recites that a great part of the business
in the Chambers of the Judges of the three superior Courts
at Westminster might, with advantage to the public, be
dispoSed of by the Masters of the Court. A majority of the
Judges may make rules empowering the Masters to traating
nsact
business at Chambers, except in respect o
to the liberty of the subject. Every rule made under the
Act is to be read in open court, to be sent to the Lord
Chancellor, and to be published in the London Gazette.
An appeal is given from a Master in Chambers to a Judge
sitting in Chambers. By the Act requiring to be read aloud
in open court in each of the courts at least ten days before
the day fixed for coming into force, the Act cannot take
effect until Michaelmas Term, otherwise it might have
been of benefit during the present circuits and the approach-
ing long vacation.
