COYLE V. LEERS.
Tbii was an actiou for libel.
_ _ _

Mr. Humfrey, Mr. M. Chambers, and Mr. Dowdes-
well were counsel for the dcfmclant, and the plaintiff
was represented by Mr. Cockburn and Mr. Edwin
James.

The defendant is a collecting clerk in the firm of
Messrs. Grimbell, Clark and Co., distillers, in Albion-
street, and at Cow-cross ; and the defendant is the
proprietor of the City of London Trade Protection Cir-
cular. The libel in question, of which the plain-
tiff complained, appeared in the defendant's publica-
tion, of the dates of the 19th June and 11th July last,
and charged the plaintiff with being connected with a
acciety in Crooked-lane, a notorious swindler, and with
having decamped from his chambers in that locality
without paying his rent, and in debt to various tradesmen.
Mr. Ha} e 4, one of the firm of Grim Foll, Clark and Co.,
in whose service the plaintiff is employed, was called on
his part, and proved the publication of the libel, and that
whilst in their service the plaintiff had never been con-
nected with any society in Crooked-lane, and that dur-
ing that time he.had conducted himself with the greatest
integrity.
Mr. UIJMFREY, on behalf of the defendant, in his
address to the jury, reiterated the alleged libel, charging
the plaintiff wit's being a notorious swindler, and said be
would prove is. He, however, relinquished a justifica-
tion of that part of the libel so far as it charged the
plaintiff with living in Crooked-lane, and therefore the
plaintiff must have a verdict upon that point.
Rev. Patrick Fenn was then called on behalf of the
defendant—He said, I am rector of the parish of Bad-
ness, near Manningtree, Essex. In consequence cf an
advertisement in the Record newspaper, I communicated
with a person assuming the name of J. Sydserff,
who signed that advertisement, and who de-
scribed himself as the son of a Wesleyan minister,
and offering money to lend to dissenting ministers, on
advantageous terms. I had some correspondence with
the person who signed that advertisement, named Syd-
serff, and he came down to see me, by his own proposi-
tion, at my residence, on the subject of discounting a
thoefferwinr
certain bill of exchange. (Here the witness pointed to
a person sitting in court in a convicts's dress, and in the
custody of an cfficer, whom he identified as the man
Sydserff, who had Tisit,,d him on the subject of the bill
of exchange. Certain letters were then put in,
signed J. Sydserff, and dated June, 1847, from
-artoa4cll,
peLramcebnett.h;
w7itneßseslv6iodOele offering
writer to
professing advance
to be the son of an itinerant minister of the Wesleyan
persuasion). Sydserff came down to see me, and the re-
sult was that shortly after his visit he sent me down
tvo bills, each for 1004, on my own personal security,
the principal to be paid off in five years. I seceptel the
two bills and sent them to Sydserff, but I never got any
money in exchange for them. There were ac-
tions afterwards brought against me by the holders of
the bills.
Cross-examined—Mr. Sydserff:` came down once to me,
dined with me, and staid three or four hours. I never
came into conl act with Mr. Coyle, the plaintiff.
Joseph Sydserff called—My real name is Alfred Sin-
clair. I come now from Milbank Prison, (Handed the
letters signed Sydserff). These letters are all written
by me. The advertisement in the Record was sent, In
my hand-writing, and the bills are also written by me.
I know a man named Shires. Ile calls himself a com-
mission man. I do not know a man called Thomas
Holbrook Coyle. When I received the bills, I gave
them to Shires. I never got any value for them.
Cross-examined—l have been convicted for obtaining
goods under false pretencee. I was tried before
Sergeant Mir ehoase. They were the goods
of a man in Hatton-garden. I was sentenced for seven
years' transportation. There is a person named Sydserff,
a merchant, in the City. When I signed his name to
those letters I did not know what business he was. I
gave the bills to Shires to get them discounted; but I
never got any money Lfrons him in respect to them.
Shires had formerly been a builder; but When I knew
him ho was a commission man.
Shires was here called, but he did not appear,

EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings at Nisi Print, at Westminster, befire the
1401tP CHIEF' BARON and a Special Jury.)
CHARTIST LAND SCHEME'
o'coNmou. V. DRADBII4.W.
The trial of this case, which occupied a considerable
portion of yesterday, and of which a full report ap.
peered in our Third Edition last evening, as resumed
again this morning, when the evidence for the defence
was proceeded with. It will be recollected that the ac.
tion was instituted by Mr. Feargus O'Connor, M.P.,
against the proprietor of the Nottingham Journal for the
publication of a libel, _ . .

The first witness called was George Froleriek New.
marsh, a solicitor, residing at Cirencester, in Gloucester-
shire, He said—l acted as solicitor for the sale (1" the
Lorvbands Estate, which was purchased by Mr. O'Con-
nor, and conveyed to him without any trust,
The CIIIEa' BARON—Does that apply to all the
estates ?

Mr. lir.A.TINo said it would, perhaps, save time, as
well as make his Lordship's notes more intelligible, if
the names of all the estates purchased were given at this
stage.
The CIIIEF BARON acquiesced in the suggestion.
Mr. KEATING--Tbo estates purchased were Low-
band?, 8,5604 ; Herringsgate, 2,3441. ; Minister Lovell,
10,878/. ; Snig's-end, 12,200/. ; Dodford, 10,350/. ; and
Mathon, which had been purchased for 15,350/., but was
net yet conveyed.
Charles Brown, a cordwainer, living at Nottingham,
examined, said—l became connected with the Land
Scheme in 1845, and commenced with ono share, f9r
which I paid 21. 53. In 1846 I took two more acres, for
which I paid a similar amount, and in 1847 I increased
them to 20 acres Cur the benefit of my children. I bad
then four;'five,pound shares,. and I paid altogether 201.
I never received any allotment. I was at Nettnghxm
in 1847, and I saw Mr. O'Connor theic. Ho
was making an election spceob, and said if be
kecgnqe Member of Parliament, he would

be able to get all the members of the Land
Company located in:three years, but if not it would take
him five or six years. After that I made an additional
purchase from a successful balloting member, which gave
me the right of location. I paid 351. for that purchase,
which consisted of three acres. I saw Mr. O'Connor
afterward 4, at the Ram Inn, Nottingham, and communi-
cated to him what I had done, and he said, with very
great politeness, that the man who sold it was a great
fool ; he did not say the man who bought it was a fool.
—(Laughter.) I was located, eventually, at Snig's•end.
I had a cottage and three acres of land. It was not a
substantial cottage, although it had a neat appearance
outside. It did net keep out tho wind and wet. The
ground was not properly prepared for cultivation. I re-
mained at it nine months, and left in consequence of my
expectations not being fulfilled. One of my sons enlisted
in the army, and I wrote to Mr. O'Connor about him.
Soon after I took possession at Snig's-end I got 151.
ready money. In October, 1849, I made an application,
by writing, ta Mr. O'Connor for a return of my shares,
but did not receive back any money.
Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant WILKINS—I hit
Snig's-end partly from illness. A s far as I can :ay, my ill-
ness was a spasmodic attack of the stomaeh. There w ere
three rooms in the cottage. The rain came through the roof
and window of the back kitchen or scullery, owing to
the bad workmanship. When I went, there were
planted about an acre of potatoes, and about half-an-acre
cf barley. I reaped the barley. The potatoes were very
much affected by the disease. In the following year I
sowed two acres with wheat, and about half-an-acre with
vegetables. I sold my allotment, and got 251. for it, and
the purchaser, as far as I know, is living upon it now. I
afterwards wanted the land back again, and offered to
give 51. more than I had received.
Mr. Sergeant WraraiNs here observed that tLe man-
damus which had been obtained to ascertain whether the
company could be legally registered, was at this moment
being argued.
The LORD CHIEF BARON said it was to bo regretted,
that a decision was not given before this case came on for
trial.

Mr. Sergeant WILKINS observed that he was placed
in some littfe difficulty, in consequenco of the decision
not being given, but the plaintiff was in no way to

Mr. ROEBUCK —As my Learned Friend has cowl'. tu-
ted himself a witness, it is my duty to say that there
are other witnesses behind me.

William Matthews, solicitor, practising at Gloucester,
said—l was solicitor to Mr. George Dewburst, the wit •
ness who was called yesterday. I had several commu-
nications with Mr. O'Connor. On the first occasion I
applied to him fjr a conveyance of some property on
the Snig's end estate, which hal been purchased, and
he said it was contrary to the rules c f the Land Company.
Edward Ross, a frame-work-knitter, said—l was a
subscriber for three acres, and paid 31. 18s. I heard
him speak in the Market-place, at Nottingham, on the
day cf his nomination, and he said if he was rt turned he
would be &Ile to give allotments to all the paid-up sub-
scribers within 6 years of the commencement of the scheme
William Best, a native of Nottingham, and as allottee
at Snig's-end, gave similar testimony to the preceding
witnesses.

Mr. William Bevans, Secretary to the Commission
appointed to inquire into the state of the poor in En-
gland and Wales, said—l have had fur some years ex-
perience in the management of farms. I was directed
two years ago, by the. Poor-law Commissioners, to in-
quire into the effect of the s( ttlements on the parishes in
which the allotments of the Land Company were made.
Insptct,al the allotments and the houses upon
them. The cottages were most excellent, and were
new, and the land was all under a system
of cultivation which is usual to small allot-
ments ; there being a patch of one thing, and
a palc4 of another. There was nothing remarkable
about the people. My opinion is, that no man can
work one acre thoroughly with a spade, and if he could,
ho would be unable to live upon it. The soil was 'Va-
rious, but principally light. The soil at llerriepgate
and Minster Level was very inferior—it was very thin,
but six or eight inches deep, upon a gravel substratum.
The soil at Snig's-end was very good. The opinion I
formed was, that these allottees would invariably fail in
about a year, provided they had no other occupation,
and no money. The fact cf a two-acre al-
lottee receiving a capital of 151. t) begin
with, and a three-acre allottee 22/. 101, would
not alter my opinion. I cannot say whether 71. lOs is a
fair sum fur sowing an acre of barley and half an acre of
potatoes. _ _

Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant WILKINS—I have
had a strong opinion for some years against small
farming. I wes about 30 when I first directed my at-
t3ntion to farming, and I have farmed in Jersey and
Yorkshire. lam not an advocate for spade husbandry,
and don't think it is recommended by men of great au-
thority. I have tried William Cobbett's system of hus-
bandry, and my experiments have always failed. lam
not aware from his writings that he was an advocate
for spade husbandry. I have not read the work of Mr.
Mill on husbandry. I don't know such a writer on the
subject.
Mr. ROEBUCK—There is no author of that name who
has written on spade husbandry.
Mr. Sergeant Wrmuss —You know a great deal, I
dare say, illr. Roebuck, but you are not acquainted with
everything.—(Laughter.)
Cross-examination continued—l have read Mr. Mill's
work on political economy, and I am personally ac-
quainted with that gentleman, but I know he never had
a spade in his hand in -his life, I did not state before a
Committee of the House of Commons that I had made
inquiries and f)und that the cottages at Snig's•end
cost more than 1001. each, but I should say
they cost very little less than that sum. At Herrings-
gate there were 30 cottages on the estate and at Minster
Lovell 60.

Mr. Brown, clerk at the office fir the Registration of
Banks at Somerset House, said there was no return of
a bank called the National Land and Labour Bank.

Mr. Weedon, clerk in the London Joint Stock Bank,
said no account was opened in the name of Mr. Roberts,
the trustee of the National Land Company, nor in the
names of T. S. Duncombe, M.P., John Sewell, and
Ernest Jones. There is no account in the name of Mr.
Fergus O'Connor jointly with others, but he opened an
account in his own name in 1847, and another in 1848,
which was distinguished by the initials B. A.
Cross-examined by Mr. WILKINs—I do not know
such a person as Mr. Roberts. (The Learned Counsel
here handed the witness several cheques to a large
amount, which had been drawn by Mr. Roberts.) These
belong to a country account, and ars kept in a country
register, which does not pass through my bands. They
apptar to below to a Manchester customer. I do not
know whether Mr. Roberts lives at Manchester.
Re-examined—Mr. O'Connor had a deposit account
in July, 1847, of 8,5001., upon which he received in-
terest.
(The trial bad not concluded when our report left.)

COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco after Term, before Justices MAUL;
CRESSWELL, WILLIAMS, and TALFOURD
FA.RREL V. COOPER.
In this case there wero two actions brought by the
plaintiff, against the London and County Joint-Stock
Banking Company, the first for refusing to cash certain
cheques drawn by the plaintiff on the bank when they
had a sufficient balance of his account in their hands to
meet there, and the second for exposing the plaintiff's
banking account without his consent. It appeared that
the plaintiff was in the employ of Lord de Lisle, as farm
bailiff, and that he transacted business on his Lordship's
account, selling wheat and grain of all sorts of the farm.
Lord de Lisle having occasion to suspect that the plain-
tiff's accounts were not all right, wrote to the branch
bank at Tunbridge, and demanded to see plaintiff's
banking account, which, after ho had obtained an order
from the head office in London, the manager allowed
him to do. His Lordship then served the bank with a
notice not to pay out any of the account of 1281. los.,
which stood in plaintiff's name, as the money was his
Lordship. In accordance with this, the bank had re-
fused to honour two of the plaintiff's cheques which had
been presented. Out of these circumstances two actions
had been tried at Guildhall before the Lord Chief
JustiCe, and in both of which verdicts had been returned
for the defendant, subject, to a demurrer on two special
plea•, which was now argued.
The arguments in this case lasted the entiro morning.

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. JAMES.)
5012101,LINGER V. WEBSTER.
The plaintiff in this action is an hotel-keeper in
Gracechurch-street, and defendant is described as a
captain in the Indian army. The action was brought to
recover the sum of 431. 10s. on a bill of exchange, and
7/. for refreshments supplies.
The defendant suffered judgment to go by default as
regarded the bill, and evidence was adduced as to the
general charges, and a verdict was given for 50/. 10s.
This was the only case.

SURREY COUNTY COURT.
(THIS DAY.)
(Before G. CLIVE, Esq., Judge.)
IMPORTANT CAUTION TO LOAN NOCIETIES:•OWEN tf.

KELLY.
The plaintiff stated that he was secretary to the
Friendly Loan Society, and in June last a person named
Jeffery borrowed 121., at 5 per cent. interest, to be repaid
by weekly instalments. The defendant was one of his
sureties, and on his being a defaulter in the sum of 71.,
the society brought the present action to recover that
amount, as they were unable to find the borrower or
the other security. A regular promissory note was
drawn up and signed by all parties.
Mr. Bistro, who attended for defendant, asked for the
production of the promissory note.
Defendant here produced it, and on examination by
Mr. BINNS, the latter contended that the plaintiff must
be nonsuited, inasmuch as the present action was brought
on a promissory note, whereas the note now before him
was a regular bill of exchange, payable three months
after date. Ho (Mr. Bums) called his Honour's atten-
tion to the 9th and 10th Vie., cap. 98, which would
settle that point.

The plaintiff informed his Honour that they always
recovored in such notes, and never had such an objection
before.

His Horioun, after carefully examining the Act of
Parliament, alluded to by Mr. Binns, said that the plain-
till must be nonsuited, as there was a vast deal of differ-
ence between a promissory note and a bill of exchange.
The plaintiff was accordingly nonsuited.

SIVLITHFIEV.D.

Although our market to-day WAS very scantily sup•
plied with Beasts—the general quality of which was
inferior—the demand for that description of stock was
in a depressed state, at prices barely equal to thou ob-
tained on Monday. The extreme value of the best
Scots was 3s 10d per 81bs, and a t Auf clearance was not
effected. The numbers of Sheep were again small. All
kinds moved off readily, at an advance in the quotations
of 2d per 81bs, the primest old Downs in the wool pro-
ducing 4s 4d to 4s 6d per Sibs. There were about 600
shorn Sheep on offer, at 3s 4d to 3s 8d per 81br. Calves
were in good supply, and sluggish inquiry, at unaltered
currencies. Prime small Pigs produced full prices.
Otherwise the pork trade ruled dull. Mich Cows were
heavy, at from 141 to 181, including► their small calf. .
