COURSING EXTRAORDINARY.
About twelve o'clock on Sunday last, a fine hare, which had
been observed in the Montpelier and Imperial promenades,
entered the High-street from the Colionnade, and ran with great
swiftness towards St. George's-place, followed by sundry bull
dogs, terriers, pug-dogs, lap-dogs, and " curs of low degree."
the rear of the hunt being brought up by a tolerable posse of Hy-
men and boys. At length, when she arrived opposite Yearsley's
Hotel, a greyhound joined in the chase, and soon distanced the
motley crowd of her pursuers. In going down St. George'-place
the greyhound turned her several times, until she crossed the brook
into the Old Well Orchard, where she was admirably coursed by
her fleet enemy for several minutes ; but in going through' hedge
a spaniel on the farther side made a spring at her, and succeeded
in putting an end to the career of " poor puss!" and disappointing
the greyhound of his prey.—Cheltenhans Chronicle.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Dec. 10.
Sittings at Nisi Prins, Westminster--Common Juries.

1:14D11111. V. TIASICIW.
This anion was brought to recover the value of some goods
which the Plaintiff had seat to the Defendant, a broker at Pimlico,

to be sold.
The Plaintiff having been arrested by several creditors, sent the
goods from his house at Brixton Hill to the Defendant, for the
purpose of raising motley. The furniture. consisting of a patent
table, several chairs, and a wardrobe, sold for upwards of £2O,
but the proceeds, instead of reaching the Plaintiff, were paid to
one of his creditors, named Joseph, who applied the same to his

own use.
Mr. Guam, 'for the Defendant, called Joseph, who stated that
the Plaintiff sent for him and gave bins authority, not only to sell
the goods, but to apply the proceeds towards the liquidation of his
debt of .C9O. He accordingly received selB from the defendant,
which he kept for his own use.
Lord Tsirraansu left the Jury to decide according to the credit
'they might give to the witness Joseph. If they believed him they
might to find for the Defendant.
The Jury gave their verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages £lO.
BOAR' v. LORD AND ANOTHICI6
This uas an action brought by the plaintiff against the defend-
' ant Lord. and Mathews, his agent, for a fraudulent trespass in
training for rent. It appeared that the plaintiff took a house in
Clarence Gardens of Robert Evans, the agent of Lord, in the be-
ginning of the year 1898. The rent not being paid regularly, a dis-
treu was put in in October for rent to Midsummer ; but it was
withdrawn in consequence of an arrangement having been entered
into. Afterwards another distress was put in,for which this action
was brought.
Mr. GIIIINRY (with whom was Mr. Cosine) said that the plain.
tiff had taken another house, and was endeavouring fradulently to
remove the goods, and that this distress was put in on account of
this shuffling trick. And he also contended that it was not an
oppressive act, for the goods were appraised at £8 l N and offered
to the plaintiff at that sum, and time was allowed him to get the
money and repurchase the goods.
The Arroanrr-Ginszaai in reply said that this was a frau-
dulent transaction to get rid of the plaintiff, who, being a poor
man, most probably did not pay regularly. The plaintiff, how-
ever, was still liable to an action for rent. This distress was a
most oppressive act after the arrangement had been entered
Into, and still more so by the manner in which it was carried
into effect. They took not only the goods, all of which they did
not appraise, but also the linen and every thing they could lay their
hands on, and to this day had not let the plaintiff know what they

were sold for.
Lord TWITRILDIX said that the defendants had failed in proving I
the fraudulent removal of the goods by the plaintiff, and therfote I
the Jury must And a verdict for the plaintiff. The question for 1
their consideration was, whether the defendant entered into this 1
transaction to force the plaintiff to quit the premises?
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, £lOO.
IMO, Dial. TRIACIIIII V. cuirasses.
This was an action of ejectment brought to recover possession of
certain premises, caned the Red Lion, in the parish of St. Jahn,

Messrs. Goodwin on lease, under the family of Treacher, until
1107, when it expired. The Messrs. Goodwin, however, held
them for some years, not under lease, and always paid the rent to
plaintiff's family, the money being paid to Messrs. Lake and Wil•
kinson, solicitors, by the Goodwin, for Mary Treacher, from 1113
to 1818.
On behalf of the defendant.
Mr. Slam said he was in a condition to prove that the parish
in which the premises were situated was wrongly described in the
declaration, for the parish was St. John, of Wapping, instead of
St. John, Wapping.
Lord Tairrsanzw—ls that all ?
Mr. Svaxa—Yes, my Lord.
The Jury then (under the direction of his Lordship) found for
the plaintiff.
