LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

CITY OF LONDON COURT.
DIERDEN V. WARD.--IMP 0 RTANT JUDGMENT.

This was an action to recover £l7 lts., the value
Of a portmanteau and its contents, which had been
stolen from defendant's cab last Boxing-day. It,
was stated yesterday •that the portmanteau was put
on the top of a cab, and the guard was setup to pro-
tect, the cabman admitting that he had not chained
the portmanteau, although he was provided with a
chain, but he was not compelled to use it.
His Honour gave judgment this morning, and
said he had looked carefully into the law, more
especially into the case of. Ross and Hill. There
was no doubt that, so far as the public were con-
cerned, a cabman or a. c.kb proprietor was a bailee
for hire, and he Was liable for negligence,
though not to the extent of a common car-
rier. It was for the plaintiff to show that the
cabman had been guilty of negligence, and he had
deposed that proper care was not taken of the lug-
gage. It was not denied that the cabman had a
chain for the purpose of chaining up luggage, and

Aigh there was no act of Parliament which coin-

pellcd a cabman to use the chain, the as-
sumption was that it was placed on the
cab for some purpose. It w•as not likely
that a cabman would carry about a chain for

pleasure, and the mere possession of it disclosed that
the cab proprietor was well aware of the dangers
of the street. As the cabman had not used the
chain his Honour must hold that he had been
guilty of such negligence as to render defendant
liable for this loss. As some of the property had
been recovered, the damages would be reduced

to £l5.
Mr. Dowse, for the plaintiff, asked for costs,
which were granted.

Verdict for the plaintiff with costs.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS P.Y.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

WORKED TILL THE LAST.—CAUTION TO CAB
PROPRIETORS AIR DRIVERS.—John Goodall, a cab
driver, badge 14,526, was charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt by the Royal Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals with cruelty to a horse by
working it in a totally unfit state. _ _

Inspector Temperley, of the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said that about
half-past eight o'clock last night he was in Picca-
dilly, and saw the prisoner driving a grey horse
attached to a four-wheel cab. The horse could
scarcely get one leg before the other, and the pri-
soner was flogging it. Seeing that the horse ap-
peared to be much distressed he stopped it, and
found that it was suffering from disease of the fet-
lock joint of the near foreleg, and an injury to the
staple joint of one of the hind legs. The horse,
which sweated very much, was about 20 years old,
and quite unfit fora'work. The prisoner said that
he had the horse out from ten in the morning, and
that he was going home with it.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—l suppose because it could go no
Longer.

Inspector Temperley said the prisoner told him
that he was obliged to whip the horse to get it

along.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—That is not at all unlikely.
Inspector Temperley said that the owner of the
horse was present and willing to have it killed.
He wished to add that he saw several marks on the
horse apparently the effect of the whip.
The prisoner said that the horse did not want the
whip.

Tyrwhitt—To treat horses in such a manner
is a cruel and cowardly action. There was a class
of persons who got everything they could out of
horses, and whipped them to the list. The pri-
soner would have to pay 20s, or 14 days, and there
would be a summons against the owner.

THE UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE.

PUTNEY, Wednesday.

A trial rowed by the Cantabs this morning has
raised the hopes of their partisans, and that justly
so, that the odds of 7 to 4 which are freely laid, are
as freely accepted. Cambridge backers, however,
will nob accept less odds.

The. Cambridge boat was rowed up by William
Asplin, the University waterman, and W. W. East,
foreman at Style's boat-yard, where she is housed
in the Leander Club shed. The Cantabs got in her
at the Ship at Mortlake, paddled up, drifted
down to the Ship, and started on a moderate
ebb with no wind; the time to Barnes at 37 strokes
per minute was 3 min. 25 secs. ; and sustaining
the pace, the crew indifferently steered, did good
time to Hammersmith, but Lll off slightly after-
ward 3 ; their time thence to Putney Aqueduct
bring 8 rain. 55 sees., and the whole cyarse ia 21
.wins. 20 secs. The c3xswaiti's voice wai raised to
the middle inea all th 3 way from Hammer-
smith, and those of whom the call-4,1 ex-
pecte I most rowed decidedly bad. It must
b 3 borne in mind, however, that the crew do not
require. hard work, and that the weather was hot
this morning.

The Oxonians Mt the boAt yard to row a scratch
eight of University men, but nothing of note had
transpired when oar report left.
