LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.

DAVIS versus GREY.

This was an application by Mr. KNIGHT, for a special
injunction to restrain the defendant from selling certain
property of the plaintiff's, under a warrant of attorney.
It appeared that the defendant had formerly been a clerk
in the service of Davis, at a salary of 20s. a week, which
was subsequently raised to 1/. 10s. Davis having become
embarrassed, Grey undertook to arrange a compro-
mise with his creditors, who resided principally in
Birmingham and Staffordshire. Grey succeeded in
inducing the creditors to compromise their debts for
five shillings in the pound, and to a certain extent
become personally responsible for the amount. On
his return from Birmingham the plaintiff gave him a war-
rant of attorney, to secure the payment to him of his
liabilities, and bad since paid him several sums of money.
In April last the plaintiff tendered 2001. in discharge of
the entire amount, but the defendant refused to accept that
sum, and made a charge of 1/. a day as an accountant, for
the time he was engaged in arranging the plaintiffs affairs,
although he was receiving a weekly salary. It watt sworn
that the amount actually due to the defendant was very
small, and that he held good bills of the plaintiff, which
were more than adequate to recover. Notwithstanding
this, the defendant had entered up judgment on the war-
rant of attorney, and would have proceeded to a sale, but
for the interference of the landlord of the premises on
which the property lay.
The VicE-CitaNcru,oa thought that it would be 4if-
ficult to grant an injunction, where the plaintiff had ex-
ecuted a warrant of attorney to confess judgment.
Mr. KNIGHT was satisfied that his client should at once
pay 1001. into Court, to cover any demand which the de-
fendant might have against him. Upon this condition the
injunction was granted.

JUDGMENT
IN THE CASE OF THE SODEURT ➢CHOOL.

His HONOUR gave judgment upon this petition. After
going minutely over all the circumstances of the case, he
decided that the school was a Grammar School, and that
of course the master, the Rev. Air. Smith, was not obliged
to teach the scholars reading, writing, and arithmetic, but
that the instruction was to be confined to the dead languages.
His Honour further decided that the bailiff and burgesses of
Sodbury bad no right to dismiss the Rev. Mr. Smith from
his situation, or to eject him from his house, as they were
now proceeding to do. References were ordered as to the
formation of a scheme fur the future management of the
school, and the direction of part of its revenues. His
Honour said, that the conduct of the Corporation to Mr.
Smith had been harsh and improper, and that they ought
to pay the costs up to the hearing.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
Their Lordships were occupied, this morning, on the
Special Cause List, which contains nothing of public
interest.
