LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.

CONST V. HARRIS.

Upon Mr. PEPs's mentioning this case in the
Court, his LORDSHIP promised to give his judgment
on Saturday, and ordered the Learned Counsel's pe-
tition to stand peremptorily for that day.
VID'LER V. PARRET.
Mr. TRESLOVE stated, that Mr. Russell had exe-
cuted the necessary settlement in this case, and had
presented a petition, praying to be discharged from
the Fleet, where it will be recollected he was sent
by the Lord Chancellor for contempt in marrying a
Ward. The object of the Learned Counsel's ap-
plication at the present moment was to have an early
day fixed for the hearing of the petition.
His LORDSHIP wished to know what was to be .
heard ; so much had been said in this case, that it
was highly desirable things should be set at rest if
possible. If the Learned Counsel would mention it
when Counsel on the opposite side were here, some-
thing might probably be arranged.
Mr. TRESLOVE observed that he had been in-
formed
by the adverse solicitor that it was not their
intention to enter into the circumstances of the case.

His LORDSHIP then ordered the petition to stand
in the paper on Saturday next.
IN THE MATTER OF THE SUITORS OF THE COURT..

Mr. BEADIES stated that this was the petition of
the representatives of the late Mr. Burroughs, the
junior registrars, and clerks in Court, praying that
the salary due to Mr. Burroughs at' the tisne of his
decease might be paid to his representatives; that
the salary due to three junior registrars might he
paid, and that they might have such increase as was
usual upon their advancement. The Learned
Counsel believed the order prayed was a matter of
course, the Solicitor on the part of the suitors ap.,
peering by Counsel and consenting. -
His LORDSHIP iHquired if the Learned Counsel
who was to consent was in Court, and upon being
answered in the negative made the order, subject to
the production of his brief.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR this morning heard and
disposed of a great number of motions, most of
which were either praying for liberty to pay money
in, or to take money out of Court, not one of which
possessed the least interest, except to the parties
concerned.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
The Court (as usual) sat for about ten minutes,
and then adjourned, there being no business to pro-
ceed with.

The LORD CHIEF BARON afterwards sat in Equity,
and was engaged the whole morning in heating
arguments in a tithe cause.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
HALL V. CURZON.
Lord TENTERDEN gave judgment in this case at
the sitting of the Court this morning.
The action was brought against several share-
holders of the London Central Street and Northern ~
Improvement Company, for expences incurred.
The question was, whether the rule of the Corn-
pany that a person taking a certain number of shares
should be constituted a Director, should make the
defendants, who had taken no active part in the
business of the company, liable for debts incurred
by it. On the trial, Mr. Harmer, the solicitor, was
examined as a witness, and proved that the defend-
ants had attended public meetings of the company,
and were fully aware of the liability they incurred
by taking the number of shares, and that they had
in fact acted as Directors. A verdict was returned
for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Campbell moved a few
days since for a rule nisi to enter a noasuit on the
ground that Mr. Harmer was inadmissable as a wit-
ness, as he also being a Director, was as liable as
the defendants.

Lord TENTERDEN, in giving judgment, observed
that the Court had fully considered the arguments
of the Learned Counsel who made this application,
and the !merits of the case, and they considered
that the rule must be refused on the same principle
as a co-trespasser was frequently admitted as a wit-
ness for the plaintiff, in an action of trespass.— 1
Rule refused.

THE KING V. BELL.

On the motion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL the
rule for a criminal information for a libel published
in the Atlas on the Lord Chancellor• was made ab-
solute.
