COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

This Court sat for a short time this morning,
during which a few motions of course were dis-
posed of. _ _

Mr. Baron G4RRow took his seat on the Bench
for the first time since his late illness.

COURT OF CONDELEGATES.
BROWN V. BROWN.

In this case, which was an appeal from the Con-
sistory Court r;f York, Dr. Lushington moved, that
the warrant should be sent up to the High Court of
Delegates. He understood that a rule had been
acted.upon, but, by whom it was made, or why
persevered in, he knew not, that when these war-
rants were sent up to the Commission, no other war-
rant should be sent up. Notwithstanding this rule
he had now to pray the Court, that the warrant in
this case should be sent up.
The REGISTRAR said that the rule to which the
Counsel referred was a very ancient one, and since
it had been departed from, great confusion had oc-
curred.

The COURT was of opinion, that the rule to which
the Counsel referred, ought not to prevent that
Court from sending up warrants ; for, although the
,Tudges in one ease might not be able to appoint a
day for bearing, those in another might have no
such difficulty.
The warrant was then ordered to be sent up.

BRISCOE V. BRISCOE.

Dr. LEE requested that the cause of Briscoe v.
Briscoe might be called on. He then inquired whe-
aler Lady's Briscoe's Proctor was in Court ?
Mr. LOYEDAY replied that he appeared for Mr.
Jenner, Lady Briscoe's Proctor, who was absent.
Dr. LEE said the absence of the Proctor in
this case was most extraordinary. He was
also absent on the last Court Day, and he
had no doubt it was to evade his (Doctor
Lee's) inquiries. His object in requiring the
presence of Lady Briscoe's Proctor now, was
that he might be ordered to bring into Court a
letter, which was read on the 4th Session of last
Term ; for in consequence of that letter, one of her
Ladyship's Counsel (Dr. Jenner) had made observe:
tions adverse to his (Dr. Lee's) character, and had
argued that he (Dr. Lee) had brought forward un-
founded imputations against Lady Briscoe's Counsel
and Proctor; but he was now ready to maintain
those charges. He maintained that the Counsel and
Proctor for Lady Briscoe, had been guilty of im-
proper conduct and improper practices, and of taking
illegal fees and dishonourable fees from their client.
He also charged them with creating unnecessary
delays,
_for the purpose of putting money into their
own pockets. These charges he should be prepared
to bruig before the High Court of Delegates.
The PRESIDENT (Dr. Daubigny) said, that Dr.
Lee might make his motion before the whole Corn-
mission. The Court would make no order on the

subject: .
The REGISTRAR thought it his duty to state, that
Lady Briscoe's bill of costs had been taxed by the
officer of the Court, and was correct.
Dr. LEE said it had been taxed in a certain man-
ner, he admitted.
Dr. PICKARD said he had taken down Dr. Lee's
language, and now called upon him to say whether
he had not used the words—" I charge the Counsel
and Proctors of Lady Briscoe With improper con-
duct and practices, and with having taken illegal and
dishonourable fees ?"

Dr. LEE—I say that, prima facie, there is strong
proof of those charges, and I am determined to
bring the subject before the whole Commission.
Dr. PICKARD said he was ready to make oath of
the language used by Dr. Lee, and it was in the
High Court of Delegates the Counsel and Proctor
of Lady Briscoe- would deny those charges, and
prove them: to be false and calumnious ; and as a
Counsel lately come into the cause, he (Dr. P.) had
no hesitation in asserting that the charges made by
Dr. Lee, were baie falsehoods —and unfounded ca-
luvrthies.

Dr. LEE said, he had not made those charges
against Dr. Pickard, who had lately come into the
cause, but against Drs. Arnold and Jenner.
The Court then adjourned.
