Our market to-say was very heavily supplied with
Beasts, the number being nearly 1,200 head, mostly of
prime quality. As the attendance f hu3ers was srmsll,
the Bret trade ruled heavy in the extreme, and, in some
instances, prices had a downward tendency, without
effecting a clearance. The supply of Sht co was on the
increase. All breeds were in fair request, and Islonday's
currencies were {tell supported—the primest old Downs
iii the wool selling at 4o 6d per 81bs. Lambs were in
good supply. an heavy inquiry, at barely lastweek'.
currency. From the Isle of Wight, 340 head came t,
hand. In Calves, the supply of which was large, next to
nothing was doing, at a fall in value of 2d per Slbs. The
Pork trade ruled very dull. Much Cows sold at from
14/ to IS/ each, inc;uding their small Call:

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

out the morning in hcarin.: arguments on demurrers,
involving only the dry technicalities of pleadings, and
offering no materials to justify a detailed repert.

EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before the LuRD CHIEF BAAON, find BATOLS PARKE
ALDERSON, and PLATT.)
GLEN v. EVANS.

This action, which was brought on a bill cf exchange
f'Jr 2001, was tried on Friday last before Mr. Baron
Alderson, and a Verdict found for the plai►,t ff. The
bill, it appeared, was drawn by Lieutenant C. E. Bald
win, the son cf the M.P. for Totnes, and accepted by
Lieutenant Gordon Evans, of the 69th Regiment, at
three months date. The defence to the action was that
the bill had been obtained by fraud by a person of the
name or Ilun.Lert, and that no consideration had been
given for it. The defendant and Baldwin, it seemed,
met Humbert at a sporting•house in Jermyn-Strect, St.
James's, win-re they were in the habit of frequenting, and
he agreed to get the bill discounted by Mr. Glen,a taker,
in Regent•street, into whose hands it ultimately passed,
but neither of them received a farthing on account of
the bill. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, ac-
companying it, however, with an expression of opinion
that the bill had been obtained from the drawer by the
fraud of Humbert, but that there was no evidence to
connect the plaintiff with the fraud.

Mr. HUMPHREY now moved on the part of the de-
fendant, for a rule to show cause why there should not
be a new trial, on the ground of misdirection with refe-
rence to certain pleas, which he submitted ought to have
been found f,,r the defendant.
The Court granted a rule.

COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco, before the LORD CniEF JUSTICE
and Justices CRESSWELL, WILLIAMS, and TALFOURD.)
The Court was occupied this morning in hearing de.
murrers, but no case of interest occurred.

The Court also sat at Nisi Prius in the Exchequer
Chamber, but the business hero also was entirely
unint.resting.

BAIL COURT.—(THIS DAY.).
(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.)
CORPORATION OF NORWICH V. NORFOLK RAILWAY
COMPANY.
Mr. MARTIN applied fur a mandamus to compel the
Norfolk Railway Company to perform the terms of an
agreement which they had entered into with the corpo-
ration of Norwich. The corporation are the conserva-
tors of the river Yare, which connects Norwich with
Yarmouth, and in the year 1847 the Norfolk Railway
with the Lowestoft Harbour Company, proposed to
make some alteration in the navigation, which led to an
agreement being made between the three parties, by
which the railway and the Harbour Company bound
themselves to excavate the river where the railway was
to pass, and scour it on each side. They were also to
concur in endeavouring to get the agreement confirmed
by Act of Parliament, and accordingly the 10th and 11th
Victoria made the agreement an Act of the Legislature,
by which the Railway and Harbour Company were
bound to execute its provisions within twelve
months after the date of the instrument. In consequence,
however, of the depressed state of railway matters, this
was not dote ; but the affairs of the railway company
having greatly improved of late, the corporation gave
them notice in January last that unless they commenced
the worn before Easter term they would feel it to be
their tu►y to apply for a mandamus; and the company
having taken no heed whatever of this warning, the cor-
poration had now no alternative but to move the Court
accordingly.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE inquired if the ACt of Parlia-
ment put an end to the agreement?
Mr. MARTIN said the Act confirmed the agreement,
making it binding upon all parties.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE--You may take a rule to show
cause.

Rule nisi accordingly.
BUXTON V. RIDER.
Mr. FIUMFREY6 aas iLstructed by the deft ndant in
this case for a rule t WHIT upon the plaintd to show
cause why all the proceedings should not be
set aside fur irregularity. In 1846 the defendant's hus-
band execut:d a warrant of attorney in favour of the
plaintiff fur a large sum of money. since when he had
depart,d tWs life, and the plaintiff now sought to en-
force it against his widow, the present defendant. He.
had, however, neglected to proceed by way of seire
facies, and yet ho had obtained judgement, and levied
upon the widow's goods; hut subsequently to the decease
of her husband she became a bankrupt, while she had
never administered to the estate of her husband, who
died intestate, and it was therefore clear that entering
up judgment on the warrant of attorney, as against her,
was not, only irr, gular but illegal.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—You may take a rule to
show cause.
Rule nisi accordingly.
