EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.;

THOMAS V. WALKER.

Judgment in this case was given this morning. The action
was brought against the defendant for wilfully keeping a dog
which was in the constant habit of biting cattle, he having
killed three belonging to the plaintiff. The trial was had be-
fore Mr. Justice Williams, who thought that the plaintiff had
not proved his case, and accordingly nonsuited him. A rule
for a new trial was argued, when it was submitted that the
verdict for 11/. ought to be entered for the plaintiff on the
ground of misdirection on the part of the Learned Judge, It
having been put in evidence that the defendant, when told of
the fact, said he was very sorry for it, and would pay for them.
The Counsel said that ought to have been strongly put to the
jury, which of course was not done. The Court were of opinion
that the fact ought to have been left to the jury, but as it
might have been made out of a kindness of disposition, or out
of a wish to save litigation, they were of opinion that though
it should have been left to the Jury, still it was not, in their
opinion, sufficient to prove a knowledge of the viciousness of
the dog, and would be accompanied with such strong observa-
tions from the Learned Judge, that there was very little like-
lihood of a verdict for the plaintiff. Therefore, as the sum
was so small, they were of opinion that the rule should be dis-
charged.
Mr. CHILTON said when the motion was discussed, it was
agreed that he should have a new trial, if not a verdict.
Mr. Baron PARKE said the case had received very great de-
liberation from the Court, and they were of opinion the case
should now stop.
Mr. CHILTON still pressed for a new trial.
Mr. Baron PARKE—Is it—can it be—worth while ?
Mr. CHILTON—That should be left to the discretion of the
parties in the cause.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—The only effect of it would be to
afford an opportunity for the display of a little Welsh spite.—
( Laughter.)
Mr. CHILTON said it would be as well at once to say that
the Welsh should be altogether debarred from making actions.
The COURT said the case was decided. The ground for a
new trial was so trifling, and the sum in dispute so small, that
the Court were exercising a wise discretion in putting an end
to the case.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are—one French Mail, and one
Lisbon, by the Comet, which sailed on the 21st of May. We
do not hear that they bring any news of importance. No ship
letters have arrived.
The Imperial, French paper, says, " If we are well informed,
that, after a long discussion in a Cabinet Council, in which
the King's resistance was overpowered, and in which M.
Thiers' proposals were modified, the French troops are to oc-
cupy three principal strong towns in the insurgent provinces,
on condition that England sends a naval expedition to Bilboa.
This determination on the part of the French Government
was sent to London to be discussed in the Cabinet ; and,
should the answer be in the affirmative, orders will be immedi-
ately sent to the frontiers to put into execution the movement
of occupation."

THE FUNDS.
The Foreign Market continues much in the same state as
yesterday. Some business is doing in the Spanish Bonds, at
41i, and in Spanish Scrip at 12 discount. In other Foreign
Securities there is nothing doing at present.
The Committee of the Stock Exchange, who met yesterday,
have posted up their resolutions in the House this morning,
which are of some length, of which we give an extract :—The
first resolution states, that the Members of the Stock Exchange
are invited to send in to the Committee, on or before the 22d
instant, the names of the prhicipals in default with them, in
order that the usual course may be adopted with respect to
such parties. The second resolution states, that the parties
are cautioned against the illegality of private compromises in
the House. The third resolution states, that the Members
who are in default are to be reported to the Committee, and
that the laws of the House be enforced against them.
The following are the prices of the Foreign Securities this
morning :—Belgian, 99 100 ; Brazilian, 82 83 ; Colombian,
34 35i ; Mexican, 35 36 ; Spanish Bonds, 41 411; Spanish
