LAW INTELLIGENCE—(7his Day).

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Stuart.)
THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA ♦. DAY AND YOSSTJTH.
Mr. Collier, Q.C., concluded his argument on the part of
Louis Kossuth.

Mr. Giffard, on the part of Messrs. Day, opened his case.
It will be recollected that the motion is for a dissolution
of the injunction, which was granted ex parte in this case
on the 27th of February last, restraining the defendants,
Messrs. Day, their servants and agents, from print-
ing, lithographing, or manufacturing any documents pur-
porting to be notes of the Hungarian State or nation; or
notes with the Royal arms of Hungary printed thereon, and
also restraining them from delivering to the defen-
dant, Louis Kossuth, or parting with the plates prepared
by them for the manufacture of such notes, or any of the
notes printed or lithographed from the same.
The case is expected to last the whole week.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
THE CASE OF MR. COBBETT.
This morning Mrs. CobbGtt made another of her applica-
tions to the court to grant a writ of habeas on behalf of her
husband.

The Court informed her that it could not grant her re-
quest, neither could they assign her any counsel to carry
on her applications. If such a course was adopted the
wives of the whole of the prisoners in the Queen's Bench
would be making similar applications.
Mrs. Cobbett said it was a good thing some of them had
wives to make applications for them. As she had been re-
fused in that court she should appeal to some of the judges
in the other courts.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

KEMP V. NEVILLE-THE CAMBRIDGE PROCTOR'S CASE•

Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., made an application this morning
to the court to fix a day for the hearing of the arguments
on the cross rules that had been obtained in the two cases
Kemp v. Neville and Ebbon v. Neville.
The learned judge said it would be much better for the
counsel engaged to make some arrangement convenient to
all parties, and after that had been done the court could
give its assent to such if it met with its approval.

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
(Before Sir Cresswell Cresswell, Judge Ordinary.)

SHEDDON V. PATRICK AND TUB ATTORNEY-GENERAL.

Miss Sheddon in person, applied for leave to file certain
papers to enable counsel to move to-morrow for the post-
ponement of the motion for a re-hearing of this case.
The learned judge said there was no necessity for any
motion for such a purpose, tho full court who heard the
case would sit on Monday next, when the motion for the
re-hearing might be made or not as the applicant pleased,
it would be competent then either to make an application
for a postponement or leave the matter where it was.

Miss Sheddon said she was accidentally too late yester-
day to lodge the papers for the motion for a postponement
to-morrow, and she wished to ask his lordship who OA
ought to cite as Mr. William Patrick has since died.
The learned judge said he should give no advice on any
such a question.

Miss Sheddon said her object was that counsel should
make the motion to-morrow, who would then make it more
ably than she could.

The learned judge said, she might rely upon it that no
counsel, however clever he might be would extract any ex-
pression of an opinion out of him ; he had already said the
proper time would be to make any application on Monday
befoi o the full Court.
Miss Shedden then withdrew.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBING AN ARTIST AND RIFLE VOLUNTEER.--WIII.
Brennan, an artful-looking fellow, was charged before Mr'
Tyrwhitt with stealing a gold watch, the property of Mr.
Thomas John Gullick, artist and author, and also a mem"
ber of the Queen's Westminster Rifle Volunteers, residing
at 59, Berners-street, Oxford-street.

Mr. Gullick said that about four the previous afternoorip
while the volunteers were marching, he was standing in A
doorway in Oxford-street, opposite Wardour-street, when
rush was made towards him, and as he had been once before
robbed while going through Temple Bar under similar oir-
cumstanees, he at once looked to his watch, and found the
prisoner's hand on his chain, the watch being nearly out of
his pocket. At that moment he was hustled by three or
four fellows and he then seized the prisoner. A lady, who
was now in court, also complained that she had lost her
watch at the same time, and that she believed one of the
prisoner's companions had got it, but that he had escaped•
These cases were now becoming most annoying, and being
a volunteer himself, and these robberies always taking
place while they were marching, he felt still more annoyed
at it.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he wished the thieves would always
meet with people as prompt as prosecutor.
A young man employed at a cheesemonger's in Berner-
street, gave corroborative evidence.

A constable said he found a watch up the prisoner',
sleeve, and which the prisoner tried to dispose of on the
way to the station.

The prisoner, who is known, was remanded.

THAMES.

A VALOROUS LINENDRAPRR,-Mr. George W. rjfad4.
graft, of No. 221, High street, Poplar, was brought before
Mx . Woolrych chargod with being drunk and riotous in 6,
plaee called Woodstock-park, near his own huuse, aaa'
threatening to cut a policeman's head off.

James Gray, a police• constable, No. 265 K, said he WO
passing the house in which the prisoner lived at two o'cloct
in the morning, and saw the street door wide open. *2
entered the house for the purpose of warning the inmate*
and to ascertain if there were any thieves within it, and
saw the prisoner walking about the room, and in a veil
great state of excitement. There were a man and a womb
in the same room. The prisoner was intoxicated, and npoll
seeing witness demanded his business, and said ,c WhO
right have you in this house." He told the prisoner he ha
seen the door oon, and looked in to see who had entered•
H e then left the house and went upon his beat, The pri'
goner followed with a drawn sword in his hand, which hr
flourished, aid exclaimed in a loud voice, "I'll cut your
head off."
Mr. Wooly ych—Hand me that sword ? _

The weapon was given to the magistrate, who examines}
it, and said it was a sword-bayonet and a very formidable
weapen.

The policeman continued—When Mr. Hadgraft said he
he would cut my head off, I said to him "You had better
go in doors, sir; you do not know what you are about."
He replied, "Yes I do—l mean to cut your head off," and
then brandished the sword in a threatening manner. I them
took him into custody.

Mr. Woolrych—Before he cut your head off, policeman ?
Witness—Yes, sir, I did not like that sword so close to
my neck as it was.

The prisoner, in defence, said that he had been drinkinf
a drop too much, and that if he had not been under tbir
influence of strong liquors he would not have acted in th*
way he had done.

Mr. Woolrych said that the prisoner, instead of abusing
and threatening the police-constable, ought to have thanked
him for looking after his house and property. The prisoner
was much indebted to the policeman for his forbearance'
No harm had been done, but he could not overlook the
gross impropriety of the prisoner's conduct. Taking ink
consideration the prisoner's sorrow for what he had door
and that he was under the influence of liquor at the time,
he should mitigate the penalty to 20s.
The fine was instantly paid.
