depend he will hit the white point of the target this year,
and, by sending them winners of the great races, will
enable them to increase their wealth and become rich. The
wants of nature are small ; money will supply them, and
enable them to procure all manner of comforts."
It is something, indeed, to know that, as the wants of
nature are small, money will supply them.
Perhaps some of the subscribers to the above worthies
will inform us how the results bear out the declaration.

LA Tar INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.)
LIFE ASSOCIATION OF SCOTLAND V. SIDDAL.-COOPER V.

This case came before the Court on two appeals. The
first was from an order of Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart,
refusing with costs the claims of the assignees of John
Simmonds, under a fiat of bankruptcy varying the Chief
Clerk's certificate. The other was an order made on further
consideration in Cooper v. Green.
Their lordships were 6f opinion that Mrs. Simmonds'
claim, under the will of file late 'William Spence, who died
in 1799, to one-fourth share in the sum of £6,300 assigned
to her by the certificate of the Life Association of Scotland
was not barred by knowledge or acquiescence in the
alleged illegal acts of the trustees acting for her before
she attained the age of 21. That on her marriage her in-
terest passed to her husband, and on his death to his as-
signees. They, therefore, discharged the order of the
Vice-Chancellor, and substituted one order in both ap.
peals, and declared accordingly with costs.

This was an adjourned summons, complaining of the
finding of the chief clerk with respect to a certain arrears
of an annuity. The question raised was whether the
Statute of Limitations bars the personal representatives
from recovering those arrears after the lapse of six years.
His• Honour said, as the annuity was given to trustees
to hold for the cestinque trust, it came under the excep-
tion of the 25th sec., and the Statute of Limitations did
not exclude the claim for arrears.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—(77cis Day).

FOUR CHARGES AGAINST ONE MAN.—George Dawson,
a carman, residing at 44, Carlisle-street, Lisson-grove, was
charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drunk, furiously
driving and damaging a cab, 11,457, to the extent of 305.,
and assaulting George Jewell, 38 D, and George Mitchell,
103 D.

John Bott, cab driver, 9,160, said while on the footboard
of his cab, in Oxford- street, the previous evening, lighting
his lamps, prisoner drove up violently behind his oab,
knocked him off his cab into the road, damaging the axle-
tree, and causing the wheel to come off. The prisoner then
drove off, but getting on a Hanson cab he pursued and
overtook him. The damage done to the cab was 10s.
Prisoner was drunk.

George Jewell, 38 D, proved taking the prisoner into cus-
tody and being thrown by him out of the cart.' Another
constable came to his assistance, and on the way to the
station prisoner said he would give him " a - domino,"
tripped him up, and tried to kick him in a delicate part of
his person. On getting him into Marylebone-lane, prisoner
got him down and struck and kicked him several times, and
also his brother constable about the legs and body. The
prisoner's violence was so great that it required five persons
to take him into custody.
George Mitchell, 103 D, proved being kicked and struck
several times by the prisoner ; and Robert Parkinson, hac,m
ney carriage attendant, confirmed the evidence, also stating
that prisoner's conduct was very violent.
A representative of the prisoner's employer gave him an
itherto good character.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a very bad case, and such con-
duct must be marked. For the furious driving he should
fine him 40s. ; £1 10s. for the damage; and 20s. for each
of the assaults on the constables.
