PARIS Focrn-tN-HAND CLUB.--We know not
whether the discovery that the profession of a coach.

man is that which best suits the genius of a young
man of fashion, be of British or cf French origin, or
whether it was a contemporaneous discovery, for
which the two nations deserve equal credit ; but kis
an undoubted fact, that the Boulevards of Paris have

lately been illustrated by the same feats with the
Drive in Hyde Park. The Emperor of the French,
however, conceiving with his usual Larbarier eF
thinking, that the young Noblesse of his Capital
might be better employed than in conducting phaetons
and baroucles, wrote to the Minister of Police after
the battle of Esling, that he had heard with displea-
sure of the mode in which these dashing youths pas-
sed their time hi his absence, squandering their for-
tunes in useless extravagance, and setting a bad ex-
ample by their idle and dissolute habits to the saber
citizens of Paris. The Minister was ordered at the
same time to acquaint them, that it was his Majesty's
pleasure that they should all repair, without loss of
time, to the army, which presented a nobler Geld for
their ambition ; and, by way of encouragement, offered
them the grade of tour-lieutenants in the service. He
was likewise directed to intimate to them, that his
Majesty had been pleased to grant them his Royal
permission, by way of sjtedd favour and indulgence, to
take their horses along with them. The Members of
the Four-in-Hand Club, with singularly bad taste, pre.si
fering the pleasures of the metropolis to the toils ant
glory of the camp, represented to the Minister of &.;
Police, that they bad all taken their chance in tbs.'.
conscript ballot, and that those •of them who Seese!.
drawn had expended large sums in providing subsdo
tutes. This representation had no effect. They were
informed that the order, inhuntaa as it might seem,
was peremptory ; and in a few days they were all
obliged to set off to the army, muttering curses against
their Vandal Emperor.

SHEEP-SHEARING.--On Monday morning coat.

COURT OP KING'S BENCH, JUNE 21.
TAM BINS V. SIR CHABLIS BLUNT.
- Mr. BrTAN stated *lt this was a rule calling on
the defendant to chew cause why a criminal informa-
tion should not be fil:d against Lim ; but he remained
abroad, aud- they had not been able to serve it ; the
rule, therefore, be was under the necessity of remov-
ing to enlarge it, which was ordered accordingly..

DUNN V. LEWIS.

This. was a rule obtained by Mr.,FARIi, calling on
Messrs. Harris, attomies, to she cause why they
should not .pay to the plaintiff, or to her uncle, the
suns of 1901. being the amount of the costs and da-
mages paid to them on account of an action for false
;imprisonment, she having been imprisoned for a night
in a dungeon on account of her having slipt in the
snow, and broken a pane of glass of the window of
the defendant, a tradesman in the City ; and why
the should not answer the Matters of the affidavit.
' Mr. MARRYAT shewed cause against the rule, upon
affidavit, stating that these attornies had kept this
money_ for the plaintiff, a gfrl .of only 16 years of
.age—that-they had it only a fortnight in their hands,
and that the season whythey did not pay it over was
that several persons, and among them the girl's uncle,
had applied for it, and that tkey had therefore thought
it safer to lodge it in the Bank for her use—which
being done, and Mr. Park having seen the broker's
note, signifying that 1,501. was deposited in the 4 per
cents. in the name of a trustee for this young woman,
and having given herself 91. and snaking -allowance
for costs between 'attorney and client, admitted it to
meet the justice of the case, and therefore the ftule
was discharged.

IVES v. EDW. ARDS.

The Arroaxx: GENEItAL moved for a Rule, cal-
ling on the plaintiff to deliver up to the defendant a
sum of money levied on his goods by execution, and
why the judgment which had been signed in this
cause, upon which tie exec. ,ution issued, should not
be vacated, B.:c. Upon an affidaVit, stating that the
plaintiff ha,?. agreed to accommodate the defendant
n•ith-the sum of 1601. upon a warrant of attorney to
enter-up kids-lent against him for it. That be did
a lvance him 401. promising the rest shortly Ater-
wards ; upon which the warrant of attorney was exe-
cuted, as agreed upon ; immediately after which the
plaintiff entered pp judgment for the whole .sum of
1601. and actually levied as well for the money which
he had not. as for th.tt whisk he had advanced, and
swept every thing away belonging to the plaintiff, and
that under circumstances of the most distressing na-
ture, the defendant's wife being pregnant and be-
• coming almost dist-acted, &c.. As there was no dr-
faraxre upon the warrant of Attorney, he was afraid
the Court could net grant him any more than a rule,
calling on the plaintiff' to return the surplus money
levied, and to vacate the judgment,.,
The Court said it could not do more, but granted
the Rule to that extent..

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE 21.
COUSINS v. THOMPSON AND OTIIVIP.
Mr. Serjet.nt BrsT sheaved cause against a Rule,
obtained by Mr. Serjeant Shepherd in this cause, that
the non-snit should be confirmed. Mr..Serjeant Best
r-tatzd, that this v:ns a case where a ship had been
stranded at Hamburgh, and an action had been
br'Arglit on a policy •ofassurance. The assurers, the
Defendants, defended the action, on the ground of
wilful neglect in the management of the vessel, but'
the state of the- Continent was Such, that no person,
widiont endangering his personal safety, could go to
liarnbtr.-gh after witnesses—on which account, he
conceived-the Court oriicht not to make the Rule ab-
solue.
The Court observed, that under the peculiar cir-
cumstances, they thought the non-suit ought not to'i
he confirmed, as it was not in the human mind to
contemplate the means to prevent the obstacles that
n-aight he caused by war ; they therefore thought that
the action ougl.it to remain open, until such time as
the Defenda.-.ts could bring forward their witnesses.
