VICTOR V. DEW:REX:X.

The arguments in this motion, which was an appeal from
the Master of the Rolls on a point of practice, occupied the
Court the remainder of the morning.

VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY)*
Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.)
His HoNouß on taking his seat intimated that it was not
his intention to sit after Wednesday. next, the last day of
Easter term, until the first day of trinity term.

SCOTT V. PASCALL.
Mr. STUART applied in this suit that it might be removed
from the office of Master Wingfield, who was exceedingly in-
disposed, to that of Master Lynch. The ground on which
the Learned Counsel made the application was, that the case
was an exceedingly heavy one, and that dispatch was neces-
sary for the ends of justice. The Learned Counsel, in order to
show the heavy nature of the case, stated thltt the statement of
facts contained no less than 10,000 folios, and but a small
part of the interrogatories, upwards 1,300.
The COURT made the order for the removal of the cause.=
His Honour then proceeded with the hearing of motions.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY).
(Sittings in Banco.)

CUSTOMS FRAUDS, IN LIVERPOOL.-THE QUEEN V. WILLIAMS

AND BIZOCKLEIDJEST.

The defendants in this case were Liverpool merchants, who
had been convicted at the last Liverpool Assizes of a conspi-
racy to defraud the revenue of certain Customs duties, by
taking _certain quantities of coffee out of bond without pay-
ing the duty. The coffee, it appeared, was the property of
Williams, who endeavoured ineffectually to induce the Cus-
tom-house officer to connive at the transaction. The officer,
however, had done his duty, and given such information as
led to the conviction of the parties.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL this morning prayed judgment
upon the defendants, who were on the floor of the Court.

Mr. Sergeant MtairnY addressed the Court in mitigation
on behalf of the defendant Brocklehurst.

The defendant Williams addressed the Court in person, and
iiimied that he had intended to defraud the revenue, as he had
taken out the coffee with the intention of paying the duty
afterwards. llis account of the transaction was, that he had
mentioned the circumstance to the officer, who said, " It is
all right, you can take out the coffee, as you pay your duties
quarterly."
Mr. Justice PArrnsoir, in passing sentence on the de-
fendants, observed, with regard to the defence now set up by
Williams, the Court could not take that into consideration.
No attempt had been made to show that such was the case
at the trial, or if it had been, the jury had not been satisfied,
or they would not have found the defendants guilty. This
was a very serious case. In various cases, in Liverpool and
elsewhere, temptations :had been held out by persons in the
situation of the defendants to officers, to induce them to be-
tray the trust reposed in them by the Crown and the public.
Now it was necessary to make a severe example. The Court
could see no difference in the relative guilt of the parties.
They had been found guilty of conspiring to defraud the re-
venue, and the different parts taken by each in carrying out
that conspiracy made no difference in their guilt.
It appeared that Williams had been already im_
prisoned for seven months, while Brocklehurst had
only been imprisoned fdr one month, having been out on bail
since the month of October. The Court took this fact into
its consideration in awarding the punishment to each. The
sentence of the Court was that Thomas Williams should be
imprisoned in her Majesty's gaol at Kirkdale, in Lancashire,
for six calendar months, and that Brocklehurst should be
imprisoned in the same gaol for twelve calendar months, and
that in the mean time they should be committed to the cus-
tody of the keepers of the Queen's Prison.
The prisoners were then removed in custody.

EXCHEQUER COURT-THIS DAY,
The Court took motions to-day.
MANSELL V. lIEDGECOCK.
Mr. HINDMAILSH, in this case, had obtained a rule nisi,
calling, upon the plaintiff to show cause why the defendant
should be retained in the custody of the Sheriff of Surrey.
Mr. jraviris now showed cause. Re said that ou the 19th

of January last, the defendant had been in attendance in this
Court as a witness on a trial, and on his return home he was
followed by a Mr. Bassett and the sheriff's officers, in whose
hands there was a writ against him. They traced him out
of the direct line home, first to the 'Windmill public-house,
and next to the Surrey Arms; and on his coming out of the
latter, at about half-past ten at night; they took him info
custody. Mr. Jervis now contended that the sheriff's officer
had acted properly, and that there was nothing illegal in his
taking the defendant into custody under the circumstances
alleged, and that, therefore, the conditional rule must be
discharged.
Mr.. lIINDMAESH contended that the defendant, having
gone to the Surrey Arms for the purpose of obtaining re-
freshment, was not liable to be taken into custody, particu-
larly as he had been in attendance on the Court from nine
o'clock in the morning until seven o'clock in the evening;
and it was therefore absolutely necessary he should have some
refreshment.

The COURT was of opinion that the conditional rule must
be discharged.—Rule nisi discharged accordingly,

BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY).
Mr. Justice Coleridge sat in this Cow t this morning, but
the business brought on was of a purely technical character,
possessing no interest for the public.

COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)
STEAD v. WILLIAMS.
The Court was occupied this day with an argument on a
motion for a new trial. The question was whether the plain-
tiff was the real inventor of a certain patent wood pavement,
or whether the supposed invention wan generally known to
the public.

IVIARYLEBONE.-(THIS DAY.)
John Lechland, a plasterer, was placed before Mr. LONG,
charged with having stolen a silver watch, the prope►ty of
Samuel Lees.

The complainant, who resides at the Bayswater Coffee-
house, said that on the night of Saturday he placed his_watch
at the head of his. bed, and on the following morning found
that some thief had stolen it. He had not locked his bed-
room door, and therefore the thief found a ready access.
James Mills, pawnbroker, 103, Edgeware-road, said that
the prisoner pawned the watch produced in Court upon the
Monday evening for 155., and another person (Townshend)
brought the duplicate on Tuesday for the purpose of re-
deeming the article. Witness called in a policeman, and gave
that person into custody.
William H. Townshend said he had bought the duplicate
from the prisoner for the sum of 3s. He repeatedly assured
him that the watch was his own.

Police-constable 89 took the prisoner into custody. He then
stated that he had bought the watch from a stranger on the
preceding Saturday for is. 6d.—He was fully committed for
trial.

CLERKEN WELL.-(T HIS DAY.)
Jeremiah Sullivan was charged with assaulting police-
constable Barker, 124 E.

The constable deposed that, on the previous night, about
eleven o'clock, the prisoner and a crowd of others were
standing in Great Coram-street. He was drunk. Witness
desired them to go away. The prisoner cried " I will serve
you out." Witness passed on, and took no notice of his threat.
Witness returned on his beat in about half an hour, and saw
the prisoner snd several disorderly characters in Little Coram-
street. Witness persuaded all the others to go to their homes
except the prisoner, who again exclaimed "I will serve you
out." He remained about the same spot until half-past
twelve, when, on seeing witness again, he said "I will
rip your b—y guts open. Witness then took him into cus-
tody, and, on his way to the station-house, he assaulted him.
MAGISTRATE -Why
—W y did he act so? Policeman—l took
one of his companions into custody about a fortnight ago, and
he has a grudge against me ever since.
A decent-looking man, named Pearson, deposed that the
prisoner assaulted him in a very savage manner on Saturday
night, and that the complainant had assisted in removing
him. He did not, however, press the charge against him.
In answer to questions from the Magistrate, the policeman
stated that the prisoner had not worked any for nine months,
and was an idle, dissolute character.

The prisoner was directed to find bail, which not being
able to procure he was locked up.

UNION lIALL.-(THIS DAY.)
Information was given by the police at this office, that an
accident of a serious description took place this morning, at a
bone manufactory in Lock's-fields, by which the life of one of
the workmen is placed in imminent danger.
It appeared that at about ten o'clock this morning, a loud
report was heard on the above premises, and a policeman
entering at the moment, discovered that the boiler of a steam
engine, used for grinding bones, had burst with a loud ex-
plosion. One of the workmen who happened to be near the
spot at the time was severely injuredby a quantity of boiling
water falling over his person, and scalding him in such a
manner that he was obliged to be conveyed in a state of
great suffering to the hospital, where he remains in a very
precarious condition. At present the precise cause of the
accident has not been ascertained.

MONE Y AND Co NIMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE-
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was rather
firmer. Speculators took 1,000 bales American, and the
total sales were 5,000 bales.—Shares:were also stronger, and
a good business was done. Dublin and Cashel were 41;
Brighton, 44 ; Midland Counties, 891 ; North Midland, 901 ;
Paris and Lyons, N. 3s. ; South Eastern, 371 Blackwall,
The following remarks upon the tariff alterations, by
Messrs. Wilkinson and Sons, the brokers, are all that free
traders can desire :

" The business transactions of the past month, in colonial
and foreign products, have been on a very limited scael, all
parties wishing to learn what alterations were intended by
the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the import duties. On
Monday last the Chancellor announced his scheme, which,
as regards foreign products, is to take ot the whole duty
on sheeps' wool; to reduce the duty on currants to 15s.
per cwt. ; foreign coffee to 6d. pier lb. ; and foreign free-
labour sugar to 345. per cwt. This is very good so far
as it goes, but it would have given much greater
satisfaction to the public had he proposed to reduce the duty
on Colonial sugar to 20s. per cwt., and Foreign to 30s. per
cwt. ; and we trust, when the annual Sugar Bill shall be
brought into the House, he will be induced to adopt that
scale, as it will enable the working people to enjoy a larger
share, without injury td the revenue, and without which,
they and their poor children will derive no benefit ; indeed,
we venture to predict that an increase of more than a million
sterling would be the result, as compared with the average of
the ast three years.
"Last year the public paid 12,500,0001. for 202,260 tons
of sugar, but in some former years the amount has reached
14,000,0001., and as the average price during the ten years
preceding the emancipation of the negroes from slavery did
not exceed 295. sd. per cwt. in bond, and that price being full
50 per cent. higher, both at that time and the present, than
in all the ports of Europe, it may be presumed that 30s. per
cwt. in bond will remunerate the colonial planter abundantly.
The case will stand thus, with a duty of 20s. per cwt. for co-
lonial and 30s. per cwt. for foreign sugar-14,000,0001. will
purchase at 50s. per cwt.--
280,000 tons
80,000 tons of foreign, at a duty of 30s. per cwt ,
will produce a revenue of £2,400,000
200,000 tons colonial at a duty of 20s. per cwt 4,000,000

£6,400,000
or 1,300,0001. more than the whole revenue on sugar last
year, besides an additional 40 per cent. to the public at about
the same cost."

Exceptions will of course be taken, as the Morning Post
shows, though, we confess, in a mild spirit; for which the
protection party is not often remarkable, to the bearing of
these observations, as against the West India interest. but
we will answer for it that those who know the present state
of Jamaica and other of our possessions, will acknowledge
that they are not very flourishing under protection, and
that as to an independent body of planters, there no onger
exists such ; former extravagance, and, in some cases no
doubt, misfortune too, having handed over the estates to
mortgagees in nine cases out of ten. It might, indeed,
be contended'that mortgagees have as much right to be pro-
tected as the original owners, but then the rejoinder suggests
itself—have not, these mortgagees, in their advances, left a
fair margin for probable alterations of duties, which every ra-
tional man must have seen years ago will gradually be effected ?
• The reply that we should give, seeing mortgagees are not pro-
verbial for short-sightedness, is certainly in the affirmative.
The Funds have been rather agitated this morning,

precise cause. Sales continue to be made, and, as is stated
