BltoOgsßY V. WATTS.

This was a motion for a new trial in a cause tried
at the last Essex Assizes, before Mr. Justice LE
IlLanc, on the ground of a misdirection by the learned
Judge to the Jury. The question simply was, whe.
Cher she plaintiff, after entering into a composition for
tithes with the rector of the parish. was at liberty to
defend an action brought upon this contract, by plead-
ing that the rector had been simoniacally presented?
Sir V. Gums agreed entirely with the directions of
Mr. Justice Le Blanc, and refused the rule.

MITCHAM COMMON.
CRAM II W. PENNI:O,TM.

Mr. Serjeant Bawr moved for a rule to shew cause
why there should not bra new trial in this CAW, on
the ground that it was a verdict against evidence.—
It was an action under the, Goma! Iricicsure Act,
to ascertAiu the boundary of the parishes of 11.itiding•
ton and 13.4nd0n, in the county of Surrey. These
were two issues ; the tirst was to ascertain whether
the .brrundary set out by the Commissioners was,
right ; the secrind was to prove the bound iry so set
out was not right. and that it ought to be shotter.—
rite tirst trAinclary took about '3OO acres Morn Mit-
cham Common. The Jury found tor the Commis-
sioners' line.. The great sufport of his motiol was
an objection to the sort of evidence• offered by the
Commissioners, but in fact there WAS no evidence
which the verdict could stand. Evidence was received
whichistOrt not to have been stctivcd.
The C ininissioners produced de;iositi, ns t4k2n in
a Chancery 6i:it, in which Sir Niel °la% Carey was
plaintiff, and Doctor Tillotson, De of Canterbury,
defendant. Doctor T.llor.on liv.d at the same tone
Canterbury,in and on that account his evidence
could riot appiy to the dispute at Mitcham. There
_ _

were. in• the parish of Mitcham t. nr manors, viz.—
*Mitcham, Biggins, sad Tainwoith, Foshal4 and
Ravenhory. The plaintiff, Sir Nicholas Carry, was
Lord of the Manor of Ravenhury ; Doctor Tillotson
was Lord of the Manor of Foxell. The depositions;
of these persons, which ar;se out of a bill filed in.
1682, were not applicable so the dispute between the:
plaint i.ff and the defendants, and inadmissible, because:
die original bill out of which the depositions arose
could not be produced.
,The Court expiessed an opinion, that at had been
customary to receive such evidence.
Mr. Serjeant DEBT then observed, that thisease was
of considerable importance, as the property taken from
Mitcham Common, by those depositions, was worth
iilBo,ooo. There were some points advanced in those
depositions to which the Commissioneis had affixed
a 'line of -boundary, embracing .8(10 acres of land, It
was mere imagination that the boundary ever was in
the parish of Mitcham.
_ Sir V. Gurus observed, that he was far from thihk.

ing the Commissioners ought to be put to the greatest
difficutty to establish a boundary. There was some
!flaw I. separate the parishes, andkit they made the
boundary which could be supported by the verdict of,
a Jury, it was sufficient.
Mr. Serjeant BEST xrpeated, that there was no evi-
dence whatever to justify the boundary drawn by the
Commissioners.
The Court granted a xule to spew cause, upon the
assumption of there being no evidence to justify the
common boundary.
AC RION FOR A FOWL.—EsCHALEZ v. STOKES.

This was an action of trespass brought by the
plaintiff, a respectable merchant, residing at Clapton,
against the defendant, a taylor, and a neighbour, fur
breaking into his fowl-house. and taking from thence
a to.wl of thepheasant species, which be applied .to,
his own use.
Mr. SVrjeallt VAUGHAN, who stated the.case, said,:
the action would nut have been brought, had the de-
.feridant made any thing like a gentiemanly curlers-
tiori for what the plaintiff considered an outrage.
Mr. Eseialez, who.was partial to fowls, had brought
from Luic.isliire several eggs, of the pheasant breed,
which he hatched at Clapton, and !nought up to
chi_k.•n. The defendant, who was in the habit of
managing geese, took a fancy ro one of the phintifirs
beautiful fowls, and actually cabbaged it, in the pre.
sence the.plitiotiff's savant. Ile was requested
to. return the.feathered bipsd, and he refused so to do;
the plaintiff was, consequently, under the necessity
ot.briruii4g .this action. flue Iletiaaleuit seized te.

'owl, and declared it to he one of hie own breed; but
ve can prove, said Mr. Serjeant Vaughan, that the
(Alines fowl departed this life, and that there was nu
:: f rethe fowl in dispute. The object
seising
snot so much to obtain 'Triages as the
ence action fo r
vta
to convince the defendant that the outrage was re-
,prehensible.
George Lodge said, he was a servant to the plain-
tiff, who kept fowls in a Mews at the back of his
house on Claptcn Terrace ; his mistress give him se-
veral eggs, which he hatched ; the chickvns were of
the pheasant breed; in December lart he was walk-
ing down the garden which led to the fowl-house,
and he heard a noire ; the defendant opentA :he door
iota the fowl yard, and asked the witness to let him
I.wk into the house ? the witness opened the clour,and
a boy, who was with Mr. S.okes, said one of the
fowls w:ls his. Mr. S. then wet ,t into the fowl-
house, took up one, and carried it away. 'lie wit-
hos followed him, on which Mr. S. said, if th • wit-
ness troubled his head about it, he would lurk him.
Ike also d—d the witness and his master. The hmsl
wthi worth five shillings. •
There was no defence to the action, and the Jury
round a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages ss.

HATTON GANDEkt.—yesterday W. Harvey, J. 'bottle, T.
nice, and J.Avern (boys), were charged by Gutidtt, a cor”tahle,
with breaking down and cirrying away a considerable quantity

MARL'SOROV GU t•TRECT --Yesterday, Lord Herbert Stewart
charged Rideau' Gimes., driver of the hackney coach No Or;
with endeavouring to exact more than his fare, and with abuse.
His Lordship had the coach front Oxford-street, and on alighting
at King street, Covent-garden, he gave the Defendant two shit-
hogs, the fare bring no more than eighteen-pence. The coach-
man grumbled, and la's Lordship pulled out some silver, and de-
sired hint to taker his fare. The Defendant became boisterous,
and a mob soon collected, and he told the Complainant that a
man who refused to yay the fare was as likely to charge hint
with robbery. The charge of insolence and abuse being proved,
the coachman was convicted, under the last Coach Act, in the
penal!), of twenty shillings, in default of which he was coolant-
led to Br:deo/ell for seven days. .
'1 he Corporal of Marines who stood charged with attempt-
ing to murder a female, by throwing her out at a tw-r pair of

of Wales public-hooev, Turnhant Grew'. On tin it coning out of
the public-house, the prisoiser attacked them, and said he should
take them at into custody as deur:lady. Mr. GAntitun told hint
to mind the business he was entpl,lyed about ; that he was a
Constable, and it any thing was wrong he should be answei able.
the prisoner, however, persisted, anti said he should take Mt.

Monday evening. at dusk, a fine female infant, ap-
parently three days old, was found by a Gent leni 311
in Lark-lane, Lambeth, carAully tied lip in a
h mdkerchiel; it appeared to asleep when found,
and was very neatly dressed in a Long cambric k (rock ;
it was carried to a neighbouring public-house, and
:ind is now in Lambeth wink-house, and likely to
tie well; she has been christened Mary Lark.
Wednesday sennight, about seven o'clock in the
morning, as some colliers, nine in number, were th-
scending into a coal-pit, at the level near .Stout bridge,
five were in one skip and lour in the other, when,
shocking to relate, they had proceeded but a few
yards Irons the mouth, a part of the machinery gave
way, and they were all precipitated to the bottom, a
depth of from 80 to 100 yards, and most surprising'
will if appear, not one was killed on the !pot, but
their legs, thighs, arms, and many other bones, were
broken in a shocking manner ; their situation can
better be imagined than expreined, it being ten o'clock
before they could be gut up, owing to no person being
willing to descend the pit from the state of the ma-
chinery. The accident occurred from the cogs, which
communicated with the fly-wheel of du: engine, not
being properly secured after undergoing some repair.
SUDDEN DEATHS.—Tuesday an Inquest was held
at the Golden Anchor,•St. J ho•street, Clerkenwell,
on view of the body of Mr. John Scotty. The de-
ceased on Friday last complained of a sudden indis-
position, and laid down on his bed ; shortly after'
which, he exclaimed to his.tiaughter, who sat near him,
0 Lord ! what can be the matter with my head?"
and almost instantly expired. Verdict—Died by the
visitation of Gon. Immediately afterwards there was
a second Inquest held before the same Coroner, on
the body or Elizabeth, the wife of Thomas Poynter, a
hackney coachman, who on Sunday tvening, as she
was sitting on a chair before the fire in her own room,
fell down in a fit, and immediately expired. Verd:ct
Died by the visitation of Gop. A third inquest was
held the same afternoon, before the same Coroner, on
the body of Sophia Baxter, who fell down in an apo-
plectic fit the preceding day, and expired immedi-
ately. Verdict—Died by the visitation of Gun.
A reward of Fifty Guineas is offered by Mescrs.
COOPER and Co. Surgeons, of Charlotte-House, Black.
friars-road, for the discovery of the Author of a Let-
ter sent to the Medical Board. We have seen it; the
language is that of a Quaker, and bears the Walworth
Postmark, dated June 23—a more scurrilous and in-
vective instrument we have never witnessed, and hope,
for the honour of the profession, it will not prove the
effusion of a Medical man---if so, it must arise from
a grovelling sensation of jealousy at seeing a Society
of independent Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
appropriating a large portion of their time in alle-
viating the distresses of individuals, who may have
consulted men ignorant of the profession ; we are at
it loss to conceive the cause for such a libel. Perhaps
.some of the author's patients have experimced relief
from the Medical Board. We are authorised to state,
that Surgeon COOPER and Co. are consulted by all
ranks of people every morning until trine o'clock, and
truni tws,ve till eight precisely.
