HAND O. NgTTLEIDN AND OTHERS.
• This was an action for an assault and false impri-
sonment.—The Plaintiff was a pencil-maker in the
Strand, and the Defendants a constable, the constable
of die night and the watch-house-keeper of St. Pahl's,
Covent Garden.
Abraham Hand, brother of the Plaintiff, proved
the following case—That himself and his brother,
with three female relations went to Drury-lane Play-
house in the Christmas holidays. They intended to
• go to the shilling gallery at half price ; and they paid
their money, when they get to the gallery door there
was no room, and they came back and demanded
their money, which was refused them, but they were
told they might have a cheque for the two-shilling
gallery. This was also full ; they therefore sent the
women home, and returned to the one shilling gallery,
and again claimed to have their money returned.—
This was again refused, nnd the defendant Nettleton
came forward, and swore he would clear the stairs.—
They refused to go without their money, upon which
Nettleton seized the Plaintiff by the collar, dragged
him down stairs, and took him to the watch-house.
The witness attempted to interfere, upon which lie
charged him with attempting a rescue, and caused
bins to be. also dragged to the watch house. Then
they were both thrust into a dark hole, and kept for
upwards of two hours. They were then permitted to
-come out, .and told they might have a bed for two
shillings, which they must pay, or else they should
be put again in the dark room. The next morn-
ing they were forced to pay a shilling for leave to
!send to their friends, and two shillings more to be
peimAtted to sit by the fire. When they were carried'
before Mr. RZAD they were both instantly' discharged.
• Several witnesses Were called for the Defendants,
to prove that the Plaintiff caused a riot on the Thea-
tie totairs, but it did nut appear that they did more
than.demand a•returis of their money.
Verdict for Plaintiff—Damages MO.

DtotwOßT4 9. TENISA. '
This was an action brought by Sit J.. T. Duck-
worth, against the MarquisTenisa, for the recovery
of a certain portion, of prize-mOnO, which that No-
bleman had -received as his share of the capture of
two French vessels by two attached to the fleet of
arl St. Vincent, at that time Commander in Chief
in the Mediterranean, and under whom the Marquis
Tenisa was serving with a Portuguese squadron.
The 'Marquis's claim was supported by Serjeant
BEST, on the ground that.he was entitled to the same
share as a British Vice-Admiral ; while it was resist-
ed by Mr. MaNsirriu.n,, on the principles of the Prize
Act and Proclamation, which mention nothing of
foreigners.—Verdict for the Plaintiff.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER..
CRAWFORD in WHITRIIILD.

Mr. LEACH moved for an injunction to restrain a
proceeding at law, under the following circumstances
—The Plaintiff, a merchant of Liverpool, had em-
ployed the Defendant as his supercargo in two
-voyages to and from Quebec. The Defendant had
delivered in his accounts, amounting to upwards of
£19,000, but no settlement had taken place. The
Plaintiff had brought au action at law to compel the
Defendant to account. The Defendant applied to
the Court of Chancery, and the Plaintiff dropped
the proceeding at law, and sent in his answer in
equity, upon which the Defendant brought a cross'
action at law for a balance of £3OO. This action it
.'was now the object to restrain.
• I Mr. ALEXANDER, for the Defendant, contended,
that if his client was prevented from proceeding, the
plaintiff ought also to be restrained.
