SOCOY V. ROSIKTSON.

Mr. BlattliSTlTH intimated that the parties had not been
able, u recommended by the Court, to settle their differences,
and therefore he had to pray for the Order of the Court.
_ _ _

Mr. VICALD wished to know what Order was asked ?

Mr. BECKS/MTH said, u his Lordship had termed to grant
the Injunction Mr. Heald applied for, the defendant asked for the
Order dismissing the, motion with coats..
Mr. HIALD never knew costs given on such an occasion ; he
considered the practice to be, for the costs to be costs in the
Cause.

His Loansuir promised to deliver out his Order to the Re-
gistrar.
Mr. BICIMSTITH believed that the only obstacle in the way of
an arrangement between the parties was, that they did not under-
stand their respective rights; and as his Lordship had promised to
give hie reasons, if asked for them, for forming the judgment he
did,,he had now to apply for a statement of these reasons.
Mr. Beau> thought this the moat unreasonable request that
ever was made. If any body had a right to apply for those rea-
sons, it was his client, for, he had failed in bis application. The
short reason was, that the plaintiff's case had not been miule out.

His Loansuir had certainly made the promise: but he readily
believed, as he had said before, this was a case in which none of
the parties understood the nature of the situation in which they
had placed themselves ; and he as firmly believed that it was for
their benefit that they should remain in ignorance of their situa-
tion.

After some further observations between the Bench and the
Bar, it was understood, for the present, that his Lordship should
simply deliver his order to the Registrar.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.—(Tnis DAT.)
SALT Or rßuiy IN THE STREET.

Mr. 8.. Taylor, the printer of Shoe-lane, carne to complain of
the outrageous proceedings of officers, with respect to poor women
who maintained themselves'by selling fruit in the streets. One
pOor woman. belonging to his parish, who had their sanction in
selling fruit at a station near the workhouse door, had her fruit
seized and confiscated by a police-officer.. He had been most
brutal acts committed in this way. The Beadles seize the
whole stock and capital of a poor woman, and take it home as a
desert for their children. In other •instancti, the practice was to
take the fruit to the workhouse,' when the *Pa was divided be-
tween the master and mistress of the workhouse, and the beadle,
In all cues these seizures were made at the sole will of those
amiable men, the beadles or the officers, and without the ceremony
of bringing the case before a Magistrate. Ile submitted to the
Lord Mayor, that this was a power which ought not to be entrusted
to such men, for it was; as might be expicted, exercised in a most
arbitrary and cruel manner.
The Loan MAYOK said there were perhaps three thousand of
these women in the streets of the City, and although it was a
benefit that so many poor women kept themselves and families
from the workhouse by the' sale of fruit, yet the obstruction which
they created in thoroughfares and inconveniences, be doubted
whether it was not an evil. Certain it was that their standing
in the streets was against the law, and that their fruit was liable
to eeiznre and confiscation.
Mr. Taylor did not doubt that the act of selling was against the
law, but he was strongly of opinion that the mode of punishing it
