LRVI IP. CART.

Mr. LAMS applied to the Court, in this case, on
behalf of the defendant, to have his costs allowed, on
the ground of a vexatious arrest.
Ike plaintiff is a tailor, and the defendant a Gen-
tleman. The plaintiff delivered his -bill for goods
furnished to the defendant for £9 3s. 4d. but after-
wards delivered a second bill for L 9 19s. 6d. includ-
tng the price of a waistcoat, which the defendant de-
nied ever having had ; and on his refusineto pay it,
arrested him for LW 6d. The defendant had paid
'the sum first demanded, viz. £9 3s. 4d. into Court,
and which the plaintiff had drawn out, and then pro-
; ceeded for his costs. The present application was
made on the Act of the forty first of the King,
against vexatious arrests. The Court granted a rule
to shew cause.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAY 2.
WIIEATLY AND COOPER V. NIURRAI'.
This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, coach-
makers, to recover of Captain Murray, of the Life
Guards, 25 guineas, for two rumble-tumbles, or boots
of a carriage, made to his order.
The defendant was seated to be a man of fashion,
and a Member of the Whip Club, sent for the plain-
tiff, Cooper, and ordered him to make the-rumble
tumbles (described by Sir Jas. Mansfield, to be boots
to carry live and dead cattle) to his carriage. The
articles were accordingly executed from models made
by Captain Murray, but they were not affixed to the
carriage, and Captain Murray finally refused to have
them ; the plaintiffs, therefore, brought their action.
The Jury, under all the circumstancss, found a ver-
dict for the plaintiffs—Damages 25 guineas.

Mr. Serjeant SHEPHERD is now, by the death of
Mr. Serjeant COCKEL, become the King's ancient Ser-
jeant, the highest and most honourable rank at the
Bar. He takes precedence even of the King's At-
torney-General ; and though no man was ever more
deserving of the rank than Mr. Serjeaut SEEPHKRD,
yet he is, perhaps, the youngest man that ever enjoyed
it. Several applications have, we learn, been made
for the rank of King's Serjeant.

Of the various complaints incident to the human
frame, there are none more dreadful in their nature,
nor more alarming in their consequences, than the
Gravel and Stone, Pains in the Back, Loins, and
Bladder, and Lumbago. They are complaints to
which every person is liable, and are a foundation for
every other species of disorder. HICKMAN'S PILLS,
composed of the most innocent ingredients, have been
found of singular efficacy, in not only strengthening
the vessels containing the urine, but happily destroy-
ing the petrifying quality of it, from which proceed
the above complaints, &c. removing the calculi, or
gritty secretions, and banishing every pernicious ten-
dency to those disorders, without confinement.—
From a consciousness of the powerful quality of these
Pills, fully evinced by a private practice of many
years, they are offered to the Afflicted, and recom-
mended as a Cure for the above Complaints.—Sold
