THE Klee v. INS Iletrolt MOW WAILIVIV 01 Sitawlelt.
• Mr. CAsirsal.t. appeared to show cause against a
• rale obtained en a former day, calling upon the
Mayor and Bailiffs of Berwiclou•pon-Tweed to show
cause why a mesdames should not isstee commanding
them to swear in James Poster as Sergeant at Mace
of the said Borough. The affidavits set forth the
Charter of Charles 11. which declared that there
'should not be more than four Sergeants at Mace in
the borough • that they should be annually appointed.
nominated, and elected by the Mayor and Bailiffs.
or the major part of them, of whom the said Mayor
should be one. On the 29th of September three
Sergeants at Mace were elected. During the pre-
ceding mayoralty a person named Scowler had been
dismissed the office. On the 7th of October the present
mayor and the four bstiliffs met, and the mayor told
them that he had them to consider the case of Scowler,
which he thought a very hard one. Three of the bailiffs,
however. proposed to fill the office of sergeant sit mace.
which was opposed, by the mayor and the remaining
bailiff. who voted for Scowler, who was accordingly
sworn into the office by the maim. Foster then applied
to the Court for a mandamus to compel the Corpora.
' lion to swear him in, having been elected by a majority.
He (Mr. Campbell) now contended against the rule.
The 'rigor. he argued, was not only to be pre.ent at
the election, but was to give his unction to a person be-
fore he was sworn in as seigean. at mace. The words
" of whom" clearly meant that the mayor was to be one
of the majority approving of an election.
Mr. Justice BAlrLav—No, not of the majority voting
for a candidate, but one of the majority peseta at the
election.
Mr. Celteeal.t. then urged that Scowler was already
in possession of the office, and that it ought to be by quo
waeratito. not by mandaTus, that the patties thinkrog
themselves ages ieved dunild proceed. • - -
Mr. ARCHBOLD followed on the same side. • ' ,
Mr. HANTWioD Was about to argue in support of
the rule, but the Comte made it absulute wi-hoot
• troubling' him. observing that the questistn, might be
teased on the return to the mandamus.
THE NINO V. CAPIL, CLERIC.
This was an indictment for an assault. The defen-
dant was Vicar of Watford, in Hertfordshire, and the
occupier of a field ender Lord Eases. in which theme
was a ditch. which he had widened, deepened. and
• stocked wih fish. Being informed one day in Sept.
Rd that Mi. Etats. the prosecutor, was angling in it,
• he left his house. accompanied by two servants, with
the Ttespros Act in his hand. According to the evi
dense of the prosetution the defendant directed his ow
wants to take away his rod and break it. which they
violently did, without his having received the previ..us
warning and demand requited by 'be Act. The deka-
dam was convicted of this assault at the last Hertford
• AWL s, whets he had himself moved it. He was now
brought up for the judgment of the Court.
An affidavit of toe defendant's was pet in, which
stated that he did not make the necessary demands of
the prosecutor. and that no unnecessary violence ens
used, he having previously directed his servants to do
what he bade them gently.
Mr. TIINSSIOIR. in pressing fir the judgment of the!
Coirt regretted that Mr. Capel should have had the
ti ouble of coming before the Court. but that he had by
his own act prevented itobeing settled at the Sessions.
The COURT fined the defendant sispence. upon the
payment of which he was discharged.
THE KING W. !SLUM. CLIME.,
In the course of last term Mr Campbell obtained a
rule. calling upon the defendant. the Rev. Mr. Pelley,
a Clergyman and Magistrate of the county of Glouces-
ter, to show cause why a criminal information should
not be filed against him for a misdemeanour in cooi
ropily convicting Mr. Sanders, a Bristol attorney, of an
offence under the game laws. The affidavits on which the
. rule was obtained stated that an information was laid
against him for canvas by the gamekeeper of the Doke
of Beau!ort before the defendant. The summons was
served upon him on the 21$t of December. and the case
came on to be beard on the 2d of Jan. Mr. Sanders
gated that he was a qualified man, and begged rime
to bring evidence to prove it. The defendant retired
into a private room with Mr. Ambury, the attorney for
the prosecutor, which, upon their return. after an rib-
settee of a quarter of an hoer, Mr. Sanders objected to.
lo reply the defendant said that be knew no patty. The
case was then adjourned to the 16th of January. In
the intermit Mr. Sanders applied to two tenants of his
In Ape at the bowie& and prove the value of the
lewd they held under him. One of them. named Noel,
told bibs he was not able fulsome on account of a par
Ocular engagement lie had at home. Mrs. Roo
his Ora tenant, promised that she would attend. He
farther procured a .utveyur to survey the land and
. value it.oa the morning of the 16th he received a letter
from Mrs. Higgs's merhial attendant, a Mr. 'fucker,
• stating that she would not be able to come on account
of indisposition. Mr. Sanders went before the defendant
and three other Magistrates, one of whom, boomer.
retired before the conclusion of the business, and
begged the hearing might be adjourned till the fol-
. Wool Monday, that being Friday. in order to give
bias time to bring evidence in the place of that in
which he bad been disappointed, telling the Magus-
trates the steps be had taken, and what had followed.
' The clerk to the Magiatrates was a young man who
was on the establishment of the Doke of Beaufort.—
On Mrs Sanders applying for further time Mr. Pelley
said it was a piricelif insperti9ence even to ask for it,
and that he should not 'diem the hearing under any
circumstances. of his brown Magistrates were of the
• same opinion with himself. Mr. Bowlers then Mimed
10 pay the expeases of the adjournment and re-hearingi
• but, not being aide to obtain the delay, he proceeded to
. adduce what realism* he had. Ile roved his SHAM
ems to Noel and Mts. Higgs. the answer of the loran,
and put in the letter of the medical man of the lat-
ter. He also called Mr. Mord., the' Surveyor.' who,
proved that certain lands shown him by Noel as Mr.
Saoderes were worth 1241. per annum. He also pea
dated two deeds conveying him these lands. The .Ma-
gistrates, nevertheless, fined him 51.
' Mrs TAUNTON now shoWed cause against the rule.
!And , produced affidavits thus explaining the facts al-
lied against the defendant. First, with respect to the
peieala tearoom% it was sweet% •bodt by Mr. Ambory
and Mr. Panty, that it did Atot list loot than five

minutes, and that all that passed was, that Mr. Pelley
advised Mr. Ambury, as being the best thing for the
informer, to drop the mattes,- if be (Mr. Ambury) was
satisfied that Mr.Sanderi was a qualified man, and that
Mr. Amhuoy had said that the matter bad better go
on. Mr. P. positively swore that this private conference,
did not at all prejudice Mr. S.'s cause, nor was so in•
tended, but quite the contrary.ln the interval between the
fitst and second bearing. which adjourned to the place
most convenient to Mr.S. the defendant recreated two
other magistrates to be present on the 16th to assist
him. Mr. Pelfirdenied in his affidavit that o hen Mr.
Sanders applied for further time dist he replied it was
an impertinence even, to ask it ; nut that he said it would
have been an impertinence in him (vie defendant) to
advise Mr. Sanders as to • hat comae he ought to take
in his defence. He denied also, as did the young man
himself. that the magi-trate% clerk on the occasion had
any situation in the D he of Beauf web establishment at
He (the defendant) thought when the evidence was
laid before them, that it . id not ; rove Mr. Sanders to be
a qualified man; they considered that he had not used doe
or any diligence in priming the attendance of Noel and
Mrs•Higgite and that he had not wished them to attend.
With respect to the evidence of Mr.Morr is. the surveyor.
they conceived it to be of no value, there being no proof
the the lands he valued belonged to Mr. Solders; and
that as to the deeds, it appeared upon theteee oaf them
'hat the titlett Mr. Sanders to the property they con.
veyed, whatever it might be, was litigated. Both Mr!
Ambury and Mi. Peary stated that the othe: Magis-
trates were e molly avast with the latter to an ad-
jnurnment of the hearing, and appeared to thine that no
otti factory reason had bergs given for Noel not being
rptetent; and Mr. Pelley stated that he su petted the
letter form Mr. Tucker was written for the occa-fon.—
Mr. Pelley concluded his affidavit by stating that the
either Magistrates were aqtrally convinced • iih himself
of the propriety of the conviction. and by disavowing
ail corrupt and miptoper motives in sher he had done.
Under all the circumstances the LearnesiCounsel trusted
their Los &hips would think th it the defendant, anti
the Magistrates that acted v.ith him, had done no mote
than conscientiously discharged thrio duty.
•
Mr. CAUPILLL, in support of the rule, said that the
question was, whether the Magistrate had or had not a
bad m live in refusing to allow the he.ring to be ad-
jo urned at Mt. SiSA des s expense ? The facts al eleti or.
the other side rather strengthened than •eAcened the
ease on which he had obtained the rule. Mt. Sanders
bed not been able to lay befoie the Coon what took
place at the private conference the defendant had with
Mr. Ambut y ; but that hiatus had been now supplied
by the defendant himself. Was it not clear from what
he had there revealed, and what appeared on the mho
affidavits. that he was a partisan? WAS it consis.e.it
with decorum in a Magistrate to consult with the at.
torney for the prosecution in a case befote him ? Then.
again. nes there not abundant evidence betore Mr.
Pellry to have convinced him that it was merely by
accident that Mr. Sanders had not on the /6th sufficient
roof of his quilikation ? The retinal to coiisent to
an adjournment Shen there was sit good ground for it
was a proof of an improper bias in the mind of the
Magistrate.
The Judges having consulted together for some time.,
Lord TIINIUDIN said—The Gentleman against
whom this application is made has positively sworn
that he was actuated by no improper motives, and the
'affidavits do not establish clearly that he must bagel
been actuated by improper motives. There is one fact
—the requesting two Magistrates to assist him at the'
final hearing—which tends to show that he was not ac-
tuated by any improper motives, but had a disposition
lather to do what was rigt t. At the same time, however,
that we think there is no sufficient reason to impute
improper motives to him. we cannot forbear saying that
we cannot, approve of his haying a private communi.
cation with the Attorney tot the prosecution, and it
would have been much better bad he on the 16th ad-
jouinsd the further hearing of the case. As se dis-
approve then of his conduct in both these particulars,
although we think we ought to discharge the rule, it is
upon his paying the costs of the application, his con-
duct having gisen rise to the suspicion which caused it
to be made.
