ViCE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
His HONOUR disposed of a few short causes, wll'
were not of the slightest interest.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
(SITTINGS IN BANCO.)
GREENSLADE V. DOWER, AND COLEMAN.
Mr. BROUGHAM moved for a rule to show cat
why a nonsuit entered in this case should not be
aside, and a new trial granted, or a verdict oaf:
for the plaintiff. It was an action brought to rect.
9001., the amount of bills of exchange, which
come into the hands of the plaintiff, who is a bent
resident at Guernsey. A person named willow
held a farm at Ripley, in Surrey, under Lord ICI
and disposed of his interest in this farm to the
fendants for valuable consideration, of which v,
bills in question formed a part. The bills vrere d
cepted by Dower, for Dower and Coleman, but u?,'
their being presented Coleman denied that the 11/
ever given Dower any authority to use his Ot
Dower suffered judgment to go by default,
the question was whether Coleman was bound
the act of Dower. It appeared that Coleman st,
Dower signed an agreement to purchase the is,"
from Willoughby, but that before the transact`
was finally arranged, Coleman was taken dangero
ill, and Dower acted for both. The Learned
seemed to think that there was a striking differed
between a farming partnership and a trading
nership, and upon that consideration decided, L)

there vas no case for a jury. He (Mr. Brought
howeyer, submitted, that there was some evidei
to prove that Coleman subsequently recognised v)
power assumed by Dower to make use of his ion
Lord TENTERDEN thought the nonsuit entered
this case was correct. There was a great diferei
between one of the parties of a mercantile MI
giving bills to bind that house in theway of ur,
and parties binding each other before the cotorae7
ment of a partnership. The bills in question'
given for a farm and stock which were to be
subject of a future partnership which might neve)
carried into operation, and which in this case

never acted on.

MR. ROBERT GOURLAY.`
Mr. CAMPBELL moved the Court to issue a di
of habeas corpus, calling upon the Governor of

The, prisoner complained that he had beenaggriew
in various particulars previous to, and. since his 1
finement, but as the Court had only to deal co
the law under which the prisoner was held in ctio

alleged grievances.
Lord TENTERDEN said, Mr:Campbell was qd

After some consultation between their Lordship'

Lord TENTERDEN thought, that if the prises)

much more convenient to grant a rule to show ale,
and it would not protract his confinement a day. ,
Mr. CAMPBELL said, in his opinion Mr. Gouda I
was perfectly sane.
Lord TENTERDEN assumed nothing : he Cll
preferred the more convenient course.
Mr. CAMPBELL said he was perfectly satisfied with
a rule to show cause.
A rule to show cause why a writ of Habra'
should not issue, was then granted.
