LAW INTELLIGENCE.---This Day.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

(Sittings in Banco, before the Lord Chief Justice
and Mr. Justice Lush.)
THE QUEEN V. WOODREVE.

This was an action tried at the last Western
Circuit Assizes relative to the public right of a pretty
piece of water near the Dart. The case had
been tried before Mr. Justice Willes, and it was
intimated that the learned judge entertained doubts
as to the choice of the jury, and on this ground Mr.
Coleridge, Q.C., moved for a new trial, on the
ground of the verdict being against the weight of
evidence.

The Court ordered the case to stand over, in
order to consult Mr. Justice Willes.

COURT OF EXCIIEQUER.

(Before Mr. 13,Lron Martin and a C-ominon Jury.)

HOLDEN V. wm-rE.

In this case, which was part heard yesterday, the
learned counsel summed up on behalf of their re-
spective clients, and the learned Baron called
attention to two points for their consideration ; one,
whether they believed that the defendant had
believed that he was making a faithful account of
his business ; the other, whether they thought the
plaintiff had taken sufficient care or not to ascertain
the value of the public-house. Upon these points,
assisted by the evidence, they 'must found their
judgment.

The case was not concluded when we went to
press..

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
KEPPEL V. SIIIELDS, JUN., AND OTHERS.

This was an action to recover compensation on a
bond entered into by the defendants for an alleged
misappropriation of certain goods, amounting to
£l7 175., by the younger defendant, who was in his
service as shopman and traveller. The defendants
denied the bond, and joined issue.
Mr. Warton appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Gough for the defendants.

It appears that the plaintiff is a tobacconist, and
carries on business t.t Nos. 3and 52, City-road, and
that the defendants are tobacconists and confec-
tioners in Rotherhithe-street, Rotherhithe. In the
month of Oct., 1865, Geo. Shields, jun., was engaged
by plaintiff to take the managemen of one of his shops,
and his father and a person named Kilpatrick (who
did not appear) entered into a bond for £5O to
make good any deficiencies that might occur through
the negligence or otherwise of Shields, jun. In May,
1866, made a claim for a deficiency of £l7 175.,
which the defendants refused to pay. This was after
having taken stock on the Ist of that month. The
present action was then commenced.

For the defence it was urged that there was not
the amount of stock stated, and that no allowance
had been made by the plaintiff for loss of weight
and depreciation of cigars to the stock.
The jury found a verdict for £5.
(Sittings in Banco, before Mr. Justice Willes,' Mr.
Justice Keating, and Mr. Justice Byles.)
LILLEY V. CARDIGAN.

This, it will be recollected, was an action tried
last term in the Court of Common Pleas before Mr.
Justice Byles and a special jury, to recover compen-
sation in damages for an alleged false imprisonment
of the plaintiffs by his master the Earl of Cardigan.
The circumstances were briefly these :—Some notes
and letters belonging to the Countess of Cardigan
were missed, and suspicion fallen upon the priso-
ner he was given into custody, but from the facts
that came out subsequently he was discharged. He
then brought the present action, and the jury con-
sidering that there was not sufficient justification
for his being given into custody, awarded the heavy
damages of £4OO.

89 i

Mr. Coleridge, Q.C. (with him Mr. Buller) now
moved to show cause why a rule nisi should not be
granted for a new trial on the ground of misdirec-
tion, and the verdict being against the weight of
evidence as to the question of justification for the
plaintiff's incarceration. The learned counsel re-
viewed at eonsideraable length the circumstances
attending the imprisonment, and the Court deter-
mined that the matter stand over.

BOROUG Il 110 P.

The Earl of Derby and the rest of the Cabinet
Ministers, with only three exceptions—namely, the
Duke of Buckingham, the Duke of Richmond, and
the Earl of Mayo—have been pleased to accept the
invitations of the Lord Mayor Elect and the Sheriffs
to the banquet at Guildhall on Saturday next, Lord
Mayor's Day, and the occasion on that account
promises to be one of great public interest. At one
time there was reason to believe that their Royal
Highnesses Prince and Princess Christian would
have honoured the Lord Mayor with their company
at the entertainment, but the M of November
being the anniversary of the birth of the Prince
of Wales, and it being the intention Of his Royal
Highness and the Princess of Wales to spend the
day at ‘Vindsor, Prince and Princess Christian,
who, by desire of her Majesty, are to dine at the
Castle that evening in honour of the occasion, have
bee❑ obliged to forego the invitation of the civic
authorities.

Ou the recommendation of a committee of the
Corporation, to whom the subject had been referred
for consideration, some changes are about to be
math in the mode of conducting the great civic
festival on this occasion. At most the Guildhall
can only accommodate 812 guests at such an enter-
tainment, and exactly half the space is invariably
occupied by the Common Councilmen, 206 in num-
ber, and each of whom has the privilege of intro-
ducing a lady. In addition, each of the 23 Alder-
men has a right to be present with a lady, and has
had besides, until now, the power of inviting four
other persons, though only one of the four, and that
a lady, was entitled to dine in the great hall, a dinner
being provided for the remaining three in each case,
making 75 in all, in the Court of Exchequer, hard
by, with the privilege of going into the hall after
to hear the speeches. The suites of the Judges
made up the company shunted, so to speak, from the
hall under that invidious arrangement to about 100,
and they were always more or less incensed by the
exclusion. Rumour has it also that the society so
regulated to that limbo was never very select, and
that after dinner they occasionally transgressed the
rules of strict decorum. Apropos of that a charac-
teristic story is told. An Alderman, still living, who
filled the office of Lord Mayor about 30 years ago,
desiring on the occasion of his Mayoralty to be civil
to a friend, who was then, as now, an eminent banker,
sent him what is called in civic jargon a "coach
order," which entitled him to dine, not in the great
hall, as he had expected, but in one of its purlieus—
the Court of Exchequer. How he fared in that quar-
ter no one ever knew possibly but himself; but it may
be inferred from the circumstance that from that
day he never spoke to the then Lord Mayor, whose
guest he was. The particular Alderman in telling
the story is said usually to excuse himself by
stating that in his then novitiate he did not exactly
know what a " coach order" meant. Be that as it
may, the privilege of the Aldermen in that respect
has been this year limited in one sense, and at the
same time improved, inasmuch as every one invited
to the banquet will now be accommodated with a
seat in the hall, and the subsidiary feast in the Ex-
chequer will be abolished. The immediate effect
has been to stimulate the demand for tickets to an
inordinate degree, seeing that the company has
necessarily to be diminished by at least 100.
Some of the Aldermen are understood to be dissatis-
fied with the change, and to stand on their accus-
tomed privileges in that respect. On the other hand,
the members of theCommonCouncil have a grievance
of their own in connection with the entertainment
apparently far more galling, and against which some
of the more prominent of them have of late vainly
protested. Though accustomed as a body, or as some
say, entitled to dine in the hall on those occasions,
and to bring each a lady, an impassable iron barrier
has for some years past completely divided them
from the rest of the company, and caused them
great, and it would seem jest, umbrage. This broad
line of demarcation extends right across the hail,
midway between the top and bottom, and c:ntfines
them completely to their own company, as if they
were a privileged, or rather a proscribed, class.
Reasons founded on the score of convenience arc
said to have justified the separation at one time, but
arc hardly intelligible now, and are certainly nothing
in comparison with the pain inflicted on a class of
men who, with the rest of the company, are guests
under one common roof, and on a great festive occa-
sion. This year the entertainment committee had
resolved to substitute a silken cord for the iron bar-
rier, which cord was to be lowered out of sight when
the company had taken their seats, but they have
been overruled in the matter by the privileges com-
mittee of the Court of Aldermen, and the obnoxious
and odious barrier has been put up as usual again.
The determination of the Lord Mayor Elect to
abstain from using the State coach appears to
excite mixed sentiments in the neighbourhood
of Guildhall ; but only, or chiefly, among the
Aldermen and Common Councilmen, many of
whom have a decided leaning in favour of the
ancient customs connected with the corporation,
and are prone to regard as ominous any departure
from them. There are even some who believe in
the moral effect upon the minds of the young of the
sight of the accustomed pageant in fostering emula-
tion and the desire to rise to honour. Nevertheless,
the Lord Mayor Elect has resolved, from a regard
to the public convenience and to the change of times
and circumstances, to abandon the use of the an-
tiquated coach as an incongruous thing, and to go
from Guildhall to Westminster in his private State
carriage, drawn by four
,horses, accompanied, as
usual, by the Sheriffs in their splendid equipages,
and such of the Aldermen as may honour him with
their company, with the high officers of the corpora-
tion. The men in armour will disappear from the
procession, as well also the motley throng of water-
men bearing banners ; but in other respects it will
be made up much the same as before. There will
be a dashing cavalry escort, with a fine military
band, and the pageant is expected to proceed at a
brisk pace, and to interrupt the ordinary street
traffic as little as possible. The destination of the
old State Coach is said to be the South Kensington
Museum.

The arrivals of wheat from ESSOY and Kent have only
been moderate, but in fair average condition. The attend-
ant© of millers was limited, and the demand for both red
and white qualities was inactive at barely Monday's cur-
rency,

There was a good show of foreign samples on the stands,
but the trade ruled haayy at Monday's decline in the quo-
tations.

Barley was dull of sale at the prices current on last mar-
ket day.

Floating cargoes of grain have ruled inactive, and values
tend downwards.
The malt trade was steady on previous terms.
Oats were in little inquiry, but no further reduction took
place in the quotations.

Boans and peas commanded little attention, but Monday's
prices aio unchanged.
