COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 10.
CORLE'Ir v. LEWES.
This was an action for the recovery of a sum of 200/., the
amount of a bill endorsed by the defendant, who was a clergy-
man in Wales. The plaintiff was the representative of the
North and South Wales Bank, by which the money had
been advanced. The 'defendant was but one of se-
veral 'endorsers ; and it was 'stated that he had mereiy
signed the bill for the accorarnoda ion of a friend, and
that he had received no portion of the money. It was attempted
to be shown for the defence, that due notice had not been
given of dishonour, and next, that an arrangement had taken
place between the parties, by. which it was agreed that the
Bank should stay any further proceedings in the case. The
first objection was overruled ; and upon the second point it ap-
peared that the only compromise agreed to on the part of the
Bank was, that they should allow the defendant a certain time
to pay the amount of the bill. That time had, holdover, 'shoe
expired.

`l' he jury immediately found a verdict for the plaintiff.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
OLD COURT.

George Porter, 26, labourer, and William Garwood, 40,
labourer, were indicted for stealing on the Ist of April, 651 b.
weight of hay, and other articles, consisting of sacks, the pro-
perty of Joseph Samuel Lesher, and others.
The prosecutor is the landlord of the Rising Sun public-
house in Eastham. The prisoner Garwood was his ostler,
and the other prisoner was a carter. On the day in question
the prisoner Porter was at the Rising Sun with his cart. He
was observed by a policeman to place a quantity of hay in his
cart, and the two prisoners left the premises together.
The evidence was deemed not sufficiently conclusive against
the prisoner Garwood, and the jury, therefore, acquitted him,
but they found the other prisoner guilty. He was sentenced
to six months' imprisonment.
The other cases to-day were of trifling importance.
