LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, July 26.
-IN RE DIMES-WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS.

In compliance with a writ issued by his Lordship on
Wednesday last, Mr. Dimes was brought into court, and
the return read by the registrar.
Mr. DANIEL, in moving that Mr. Dimes be discharged,
directed his Lordship's attention to the return, which
set forth the grounds on which he was detained in cus-
tody. One of these was the order made by the Vice-
Chaucellor of England for a breach of the injunction re-
straining any impediment to the navigation of the Grand
Junction Canal; the other was an order of attachment
for not putting in an answer to the bill filed by the same
company. The answer had been put in, and therefore
the cause of detainer on that ground was at an end,
and the point to be considered was an order of com-
mitment for breach of the injunction. That order was
signed C.C., meaning Cottenham, Chancellor; and as it
thereby became the order of the Lord Chancellor, the
object of Mr. Dimes was to show that as such it became
a void order, and the commitment founded on it of no
effect.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, referring to the Act of the
53d Geo. 111. c. 24, which constituted a Vice-Chaccel-
lor of England, said it appeared by the second section
that the Vice-Chancellor had jurisdiction to make de-
crees and orders, and an order of committal for contempt,
made by a court haying competent jurisdiction, was not
reviewable by any other court.
Mr. DANIEL, in reference to this observation, read
the section, which enacts " that such Vice-Chancellor
shall have full power to hear and determine all causes,
matters, &c.; and all decrees, orders, and acts of such
Vice Chancellors shall be deemed and taken to be de-
crees, orders, and acts of the said High Court of Chan-
cery, &c., and shall have force and validity, and be
executed accordingly." Now it was submitted on the
part of Mr. Dimes, that the words " executed accord-
ingly" meant executed according to the practice of the
court, and if the commitment rested en .the decretal
order made by Lord Cottenham in 1838, he was prepared
to contend that such commitment was not according to
the practice of the court, because it was made on an
order in a cause in which the presiding judge had a di-
rect personal interest.
His LORDSHIP declined to take into his consideration
the question of the commitment being based on the or-
der
of 1836 made by Lord Cottenham. All he had to
look at was the fact that an order of commitment bad
been made by a court of competent jurisdiction. When
such an order was made it could not be brought under
the review of any other court. If the Vice-Chancellor
had authority to make the order, that, in his Lordship's
opinion, was sufficient, if it had also been duly executed.
His Lordship thought that, under these circumstances, it
would be most advisable that Mr. Dimes and his friends
should take into consideration the recommendation he
had given on Wednesday, and endeavour to come to such
terms of compromise with the other side as would relieve
him from his present unpleasant situation, and at the
same time enable him to appeal to the House of Lords
if he found it expedient to do so.
The motion fur discharge on the habeas being thus
disposed of, the matter stood over, and at the rising of
the court Mr. Daniel asked his Lordship's sanction to
an arrangement which he was glad to announce as now
concluded. That arrangement was, that Mr. Dimes is
to be discharged from custody, on an undertaking that
he is not to attempt any infringement of the injunction
which restrains him from meddling with the canal until
the rights of the parties are finally decided at law; such
discharge to be also without prejudice to the disputed
issues, and not to be taken as an admission of the legality
or illegality of any of the proceeding.%
His LORDSHIP thought this a satisfactory arrange-
ment, and ordered Mr. Dimes to be discharged from
custody.

ROLLS' COURT, July 26.
CREAK V. IRVINE.

This case, which was reported in this paper yesterday,
again occupied the whole of this day.
Mr. TURNER, concluded with his reply.
Lord LANGDALE delivered his judgment at length, and
directed that an issue be tried at common law to deter-
mine whether the premises at Church-street, Bermond-
sey, came into the possession of the defendant in trust
for the plaintiff, and as a security, for money advanced
by the defendant for the use of the plaintiff, as alleged by
the plaintiff's bill.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
TVESTAHNSTEE.

. • __
Elizabeth Lipscombe, alias Ford, alias Wild, a handsome
and fashionably-attired woman, whose appearance was
rendered somewhat remarkable by a black speck below the
left eye resembling a gun-shot wound, was charged be-
fore Mr. Broderip with a series of extensive robberies.
Several parties were in attendance to give evidence,
but as the cases were incomplete, sufficient only was
taken to justify a remand and to clearly establish the
fact that the prisoner bad-been carrying on a most ex-
tensive system of plunder.
Mrs. Holies, of Elizabeth-street, Pimlico, stated that
on the 29th of June the prisoner came to her house and
represented that she had just arrived in London from
Exmouth, and took a sleeping apartment for the night.
From her dress and her appearance the witness had no
suspicion. On the following morning after leaving home
fora
forra businesse .
short time the prisoner returned, and said she had
seen her solicitor, who was conducting some urgent
which had brought her to London, and he in-
to send for
h
her that her stay must be prolonged a day or
two.
Ultimately she remained a fortnight, and pre-
