talcu!ation from former experience in the third, • •
week of April.
Of the 1,144 deaths returned last weak, 1,138.. -
are distributed amongst the five classes, in which.
all the causes of death are arranged, in. the follow

the average being 131 ; and 23 to mechanical and

no less than 4 of these occurred in one family in a
house on the top of Stiootet'a-hill. The Registrar
states that to Ihecasual observer there is nothing
in that elevated situation which would be noticed
as the probable cause of so great a mortality; but

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(tIais Day.)

ROLLS' COURT.
Akin* the-Master of tile Rolls.)

WaTATOIIOI,I T. EOM TORNALIME BAILWICMICD RIVER

DON COWZABL.

His Honour the Master of the Rolls disposed of this
case on a former occision, and it was then reported in
the columns of Ike Sun.

It will be recollected that the contention here was as
to the right of the company to make a towing path in
front of the plaintiff's property, without paying bfria
the amount of the compensation claimed. His Honour
granted an injunction against the defendants, allowing
the suit to stand over, with liberty to the plaintiff to
bring an action at law against the defendants in the
event of the defendants making a towing path and tres-
passing on his property. No action at law has been
brought by the plaiutiff, and the only question that
now remained to be disposed of was the question of
costs. It now appears that since the time when
this case was last h: fore him Honour, that the defendants
have made a towing path directly up to the p!aintifl's
property, where tho towing path is made t 9 diverge
down towards the canal, thereby avoiding the plaintiff's
property and claim of compensation.
His Honour the Master of the Rolls now disposed
of the question of co3ts, and considering the different
erroneous views entertained by the witnesses on each
side of the intentioi:s of tho company in making their
towing path and tresp•issing on the plaintiff's property.
his Honour declined to give costs to either party. Each
party pay their own costs. His Honour continued the
' injunction—the right to ra;:e an action at law, if noose-
' sary, with liberty to apply.
