LORD MAYOR'S DAY.

To-day the annual civic procession went from Guildhall
to Westminster-hall, where Alderman Gabriel, recently
chosen Lord Mayor by the citizens of London for the en-
suing year, was presented to the Barons of the Exchequer
with all the usual pomp and circumstance. The weather
fortunately was propitious for the display, and thus the
great number of persons who lined the route through
which the cortege passed had the gratification of
again witnessing " the Lord Mayor's Show" in all
its glory. It did not, however, come up to
the standard of the old sightseer ; they sighed
at the absence of the ancient plumed knights, armed cap-
and his attendant squire, bearing his proud pennon,
and although additional strength was thrown into the pro-
cession by the increase of the military bands, yet the loss
of the men clad in steel and brass was a sad disappointment
to many, who, not being engaged in trade in the City of
London, could not understand why it was the "Show"
was curtailed of its fair proportions. Guildhall was, of course,
the principal point of rendezvous for hundreds of persons
bent on gratifying themselves with a sight of the new Lord
Mayor, and, although many arrived there at an early hour,
little incidents were continually occurring that whiled
away the time previous to the starting of the procession.
At one time one of the splendid footmen, in his brilliant
new livery, with unexceptionable limbs, and enormous
bouquet, would come in for his share of good-humoured,
but personal, observations, and then an energetic strong-
minded lady would create a degree of merriment by her
desire to get a front place to see the show without obstruc-
tion. At about half-past 11 unmistakeable signs of
preparations for a move were observable, and tho City
Marshal, in brilliant uniform, mounted on his charger,
was to be seen giving directions with respect to the for-
mation of the procession. Then a, number of men, habited
in peculiar costumes, busied themselves in unfurling their
time-honoured banners, which, in a variety of instances,
seemed to have become a little too weighty for many of the
veterans who have for a number of years carried them in
triumph from east to west. The City watermen, in their
scarlet liveries, seemed to bear their honours with becom-
ing dignity, and to be wall protected against a passing
shower should such take place ; but those in lighter gar-
ments, in which cotton was the predominating fabric,
seemed not so well provided. Many of them, however,
had taken the wise precaution to slip their official cos-
tume over their ordinary dress, and thus, although
it did not add to the effect of their appearance, 'they looked
with an indifferent eye upon the cloud that now and then
for a few minutes obscured the bright buewatery-looking
November sun which shown on the ancient banqueting-hall
of the City of London. The usual formalities having been
completed, it was intimated that it was the will and plea-
sure 0 the Lord Mayor to proceed to Westminster, and
then the City Marshal galloped forward to his appointed
place, and the procession moved from Guildhall-yard in
the following order :

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
:Sittings in Banco, before the Lord Chief Baron and
Barons Bramwell, Channel, and Pigott.)

FORSTER T. MACREETIL -NON-LIABILITY OF SOLICITORS.

In this case the plaintiff, a bill discounter, brought an
action against the defendant, who is a solicitor, to recover
the account of a bill of exchange. The bill in question
had been endorsed by a partner of the defendant in the
name of the firm, and without the authority of the defen-
dant, and that party had got into difficulties, and was now
non est. At the trial it was contended that, under the cir-
cumstances, the defendant was not liable, but the jury
found a verdict for the plaintiff, leave being given to de-
fendant.

Mr. Sergeant now moved for a rule calling on the plain-
tiff to show cause why there should not be a new trial.
He founded his application on the ground that it was only
in the case of partners in, trade that the act of ono waS
binding on the firm, and that solicitors and attorneys were
especially exempted from the operation of the law in this
respect. The learned counsel cited different authorities
in support of the motion, and the Court granted the rule.

BAIL COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Blackburn and a Common Jury.)
COLLINS V. NOKES.

This was an action the plaintiff, a builder, living in
Earl-court, to receive damages for an alleged illegal dis-
traint, to which the defendant pleaded not guilty.
Mr. Collins appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Cole for
the defendant.

It appeared that he rented his house in Earl-court from
Mr. William Nokes, father of the defendant, with whom he
had an account for repairing houses in the neighbourhood,
and to whom he had on different occasions paid rent.
This gentleman became embarrassed, and for some time
the plaintiff paid the rent to the Rent Guarantee Society
which acted as his agents. On the 15th of May, 1865,

he reteived a letter from the solicitor of Mr.
Nokes, saying that his client had become proprietor of the
estate, and requiring him to pay him £63 next Lady-day.
Other parties claimed the rent also, and he did not know
to whom he was to pay the money when it became due.
The defendant put in a distraint in the house, and the
consequence was, that the plaintiff lost a lucrative lodger,
anlelderly lady, who occupied three apartments, and who
became so frightened that she left immediately, and he had
not since been able to obtain another lodger.

There was a great deal of conflicting evidence.
Tho jury found a verdict for the plaintiff 'for £5l 175.,
including £l5 15s. for the loss sustained by his lodger
having left in consequence of the proceedings of the defen-
dant. Leave was given to the defendant to move to re-
duce the amount by the last item.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE--This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

HUNGRY, WET, AND COLD.—BEGGING CHILDREN.—
James Brown, about 10 years of age, was charged before
Mr. Knox with begging.

Samuel Connolly, 128 C, said that about two o'clock
that morning he saw the boy begging at the corner of
Tottenham-Court-road, wet through, and shivering with
cold and almost exhausted. He took the boy to the sta-
tion-house, where he was wrapped in a coat, his clothes
dried, and some food given to him, which he ate rave-
nously, and seemed very thankful for.
Mr. Knox —Has the boy got any parents ?
The boy—Only a mother.
Mr. Knox —Where does she live ?
The boy—Newton-street.
Mr. Knox—Does she send you out to beg ?
The boy (shrinking the question)—l am a Roman
Catholic.
(Most of the boys charged with begging state that they
are Roman Catholics, with the view of escaping being sent
to school, it being known that the school at Walthamstow
being full there is is no place available for Roman
Catholics.)
Mr. Knox—l will send you to the workhouse for a week
and see if I cannot take you off the streets.
Alfred Wood, another little fellow, in a most deplorable
condition, having no shoes to his feet and his skin in a
filthy state, was charged with a similar offence.
Stephen Catt, 107 C, proved taking the boy into custody
in Oxford-market, his miserable clothing being wet through.
The boy's father, a crossing-sweeper in the Regent-
circus, said he never sent his boy out to beg.
The constable said he had seen the boy begging in the
same place for months.
Mr. Knox said he would have the boy taken to the
workhouse for a week.
In answer to the magistrate, the father said he was a
Roman Catholic.
Mr. Knox said he would write to the magistrate's clerk
of tho Industrial School, Feltham, to see if he could get a
school for the boys.
