leaeriey, against the defendant, a gentleman
residing at Gillibrand Hall, near Chorley, to recover da-

mages for an excessive distress for rent, which had been
made on the premises of the plaintiff on the 2d of October
last ; and also a further distress on the Bth of the same
month. It would appear that the farm had been let to
the plaintiff at a rent of £3OO per year, and the defendant
claimed to have the privilege of claiming forehand rent;
but the plaintiff denied that he had agreed to such terms ;
and from the entries in the book it would appear that the
rent due on the 2d of October was £127. On that
day, however, a sheriff's officer, named Day, from Liver-
pool, with two followers, entered the premises, and the
seizure was made for £352_195. 7d., plaintiff alleging that

Al the rent then due was £127. The bailiffs remained in
possession till the Bth of the same month, when they made
a fresh demand of £175 for a further half-year's rent,
making altogether a demand of £5OB 16s. 3d. The plain-
tiff and one of his daughters went to Mr. Fazackerley, at
his residence, Gillibrand Hall, near Chorley, and asked
him to withdraw his execution, and offering to pay £5O
per week for three weeks, and the balance of rent really
due, at Christmas. The defendant replied that he should
deserve to be put into a lunatic asylum.—After evidence
had been heard, his Lordship said that the questions for
consideration were-Ist, was the distress for more than
the rent due ? 2nd, was there more goods sold than ne-
cessary ? 3rd, was the sale conducted negligently ? 4th,
was the £lO paid into court, properly paid to the plaintiff ?
With regard to the first question, he thought the evidence
was in favour of the defendant, and the principal matters
for the jury to decide were the question of the expenses of
, the sale. The jury retired, and, after an absence of about

damages, £l4 10S

on the ground that the expenses of

the distraint were heavy. Ajuror remarked "we are all
of us very sorry, my lord, that we could not give the far-
mer more." Baron Rolfe: lam glad to hear you say that,
because it shows that you give a verdict according to the
law of the case, and not according to your feelings.

TRESPASS—HUNTER V. BIRCH-AND OTHERS.—This
was an action for trespass, but the evidence did not bear
out the allegations in the declaration, and the plaintiff
was nonsuited. The Court then broke up, and two cases
only remained for trial.

A MISREPRESENTATION.

The "Thinking Man" of the Albion of yesterday at-
tempts to be witty on the subject of the address to the
Queen from the Liverpool Corporation. He says,—
"I agree with its loyalty, but object in lobo to its language,
its tautology, and its impiety. Take the following paragraph,
for instance Under regal government, and by means of
our free institutions, we enjoy, by the blessing of Divine Pro-
vidence, regulated by liberty, the highest degree of individual
and social freedom, and that security for life and property
which is the foundation of prosperous labour and of our
national wealth.' What do our Christians par excellence mean
by talking of the blessing of Divine Providence regulated by
liberty ?' Ma foil gentleman, but this is flat blasphemy, and
no mistake. Divine Providence regulated by the municipal
corporation of Liverpool ! This beats Rosseau, Voltaire, Gib-
bon, and Hume, at a canter—no mistake, if you please; I did
not say by a canter."
This is really " too bad." First, a gross perversion is
made use of, and then comment is proceeded with as if
the writer had been guilty of no misrepresentation. There
is no such expression in the address as "regulated by
liberty." The words in the original address. which we
have seen, are as follow, " Under regal government, and
by means of our free institutions, we enjoy, by the bless-
ing of Divine Providence, regulated liberty, the highest
degree of individual and social freedom, and that security
for life and property which is the foundation of prosperous
labour, and of our national wealth." An unintentional
mistake may sometimes be made by the omission of a
word, but to make an addition to a sentence, implies
almost an attempt wilfully to mislead. Our contem-
porary imputes no slight guilt to the framers of the ad-
dress ; and having made such charges on no better foun-
dation than the most glaring perversion, he owes to those
whom he has calumniated the most abject apology.

Some time since Robert O'Hoskew, aged 63, went into
the Infirmary, in consequence of having broken his leg:
He got well a few weeks ago, but had a fall in the house,
by which he struck his head against a table, and sustained
a small scalp wound. Upon this erysipelas set in, of
which he died on Sunday.
Amongst the minority of 24, on Friday, against the
bill for the better security of the crown and government,
we find Sir J. Walinsiey and Dr. Bowring. Sir Joshua
is certainly determined to go the whole hog with the
Radicals,—even William Ewart WB3 a,shamed to vote with
him on this occesiog.

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

was at the instance of the Board of Works that the erec-
of the fort at the north extremity of the town had been
sus, ended. At such times as the present the commerce
of the town ought not to be left in a defenceless condition,
The fort was now wanted, not merely as a defence to the
port, but as a barrack for troops. Mr. Molyneux said the
matter was entirely in the hands of the government. The
proceedings were confirmed.
It was agreed that the practical superintendence of the
work at the George's Hall be confided to the corporation
architect as surveyor, and that he be authorised to consult
with some eminent architect, on such points as may
require consideration.

SOUTH LANCASHIRE SPRING ASSIZES.

CROWN COURT.-TUESDAY

William Ratcliffe, corresponding secretary of the Man-
chester Unity of Odd Fellows, was indicted for that he
had obtained £5O in August, 1847, under pretence that
there was a sum of £lOOO then in the bank to the credit
of a fund for the relief of the Irish and Scotch poor,
there being at the time no such fund in existence, and
that of that £5O he had only remitted £25 for the relief
of the poor. Mr. Baines said, that in the course of last
year in consequence of the distressed state of Ireland and
Scotland, subscriptions were raised by the Odd Fellows
to the amount of £lOOO, which were handed over to the
prisoner for the purpose of being paid by him into Hey-
wood's Bank at Manchester. He had never paid the
money. In August last he obtained cheques to the
amount of £650 to be remitted to different towns in Ire-
land and Scotland for the relief of the distressed poor of
these countries, and of that sum he kept back £425. It
was not until the Ist of January of the present year that
the circumstance was discovered, and he was then indicted
for the £25 withheld from the relief of the poor of Bel-
fast. At the close of the examination of the first witness,
the Judge intimated that it was not a case of obtlining
money under false pretences. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins said
the money was all right ; that it would be paid over in
due time ; that the prisoner was only acting under the
order of others in keeping it back ; and that the Odd
Fellows reposed great confidence in his client. Mr.
Baines then withdrew the indictment, and the prisoner
was discharged.

Elizabeth Piing was found guilty of the concealment
of her illegitimate child, and sentenced to one months
imprisonment with solitary confinement.

James Greenhall, Thonias Hamer, and William Cal-
derbank, were charged with having, at Little Bolton, on
the 12th of March last, assaulted James Bromily, putting
him in bodily fear, and danger of his life, and stealing
from his person' three half-crowns, five shillings, and a
tobacco box. The learned judge in summing up stated
that there was no evidence against the prisoners flamers
and Greenhall, and directed the jury to acquit them. The
jury found Calderbank guilty, and he was sentenced to
12 months' imprisonment and hard labour.
This finished the criminal list.

Some time since Robert O'Hoskew, aged 63, went into

He got well a few weeks ago, but had a fall in the house,
by which he struck his head against a table, and sustain 4

The doubt thrown on the loyalty of Professor Butt has
been completely dispelled.
A man named Coogan, in the county of Meath, has
made a tender for a contract to-supply ash saplings, each
eleven feet long, for 100,000 men.
A HINT TO GOVERNMENT.—On 'Saturday, the unprece-
dented sum of £6OOO was withdrawn from the Savings'
Bank of this town. The lower and middle orders must be
aware of some threatened danger, else they would not thus
run on an institution which they considered heretofore so
secure.—Dropheda Conservative.
The repealers of Deny held a meeting on Sunday week
in the Chapel-yard, in lieu of the demonstration which
they were prevented from making on St. Patrick's Day.
The Sabbath is the great day of business with the Roman
Catholic politicians. They seem to expunge the 4th as
well as the 2d commandment from their decalogue.
FIRE ARMS.--All the gunmakers of Cork are actively

engaged making "rifles to order." In several directions,
within the suberbs of Limerick, Confederate groups were
engaged on Sunday, on the Canal, at Newcastle race-
course, at Mount-kennet, and the King's Island at ball
practice to a late hour.

As an illustration of the avidity to possess arms which
now prevails among the rabble, we may mention the fact
that an ironmonger in the neighbourhood of Chancery-
lane, Dublin, sold, in a few hours, no less than sixty
dozen of old bayonets which had remained for years upon
his hands.

The Repeal Association met as usual on Monday,
nothing occurred worth reporting, except, perhaps, the
farce of producing a boy five years old, who made a " pa-
triotic" speech, and was admitted a member of the asso-
ciation upon paying a subscription of £l. The rent was
announced to be £B7 18s.
