COURT OF EXCHEQUER—Tntasnar.
uteri v. LAWSON.
This was an action tried before Mr. Baron Parke in the city
of London, when the jury found a verdict for the defendant.
Upon the trial, it will be recollected, Lord Brougham was sub-
pc_ened, but did not attend. A few days ago. on the motion or
Mr. Lee, a rule to show cause was granted.
Mr. Lee this morning movt.d the court for an attachment
against Lord Brougham, on the ground that his lordship was, a
most material witness for the plaintiff; that the noble lord had
been served with a subpoena, and 55., being the sum mentioned
by the noble lord as his expenses, were paid him. Indepelidetit
of the noble lord being a material witness, he, by Its non-
attendance, hail beets guilty of a contempt of court.
Lord Abinger.—How was he a material witness?
Mr. Lee.—lt is nut necessary to set out in affidavit tlfat a
witness must be material in a ease of this sort.; but the object
of calling him was to prove that the libels related to Mr. Dicas.
Lord Abinger considered that the court would not be doing
• justice if it granted an attachment against any person when it
was not proved-that he was a material witness, much less against
a person of Lord Brougham's rank. Ile had berme hiaa the
notes of the case, and from them he was Convinced that the no-
ble lord was not a material witness, and, therefore, the &mit
could not grant the attachment.
Mr. Lee telt quite convinced that the court would make no
distinction between Lord Brougham and any other person; but
he c onsideredlhe court had no power to refuse, for the learned
judge would- recollect, that Sir John Campbell on the trial
said that Mr. Dicas had called no ssituess but his own clerk
to prove his case.
Mr. Baron Parke.—That was not made a point to the jury.
Lord Abinger.—lf it was a doubtful point, the court would
grant a rule to show cause why an attachment should not issue;
but his lordship was in no way a necessary witness.
Tice Court then inquired of Sir -John Campbell if he was
ready to show cause against the rule obtained by Mr. Lee. •
Sir John C,unpbell replied in the negative.
Mr. Lee.—Then the court will make the rule absolute.
The Court.—Certainly not.
Upon the application of Sir John Campbell, the dk4endant
was allowed until to-morrow to show cause.
'There being no other business before tho court, it rose at
eleven.

GRAND CONSERVATIVE DINNER AT HUI.'

A grand dinner was given on Friday by the Conservative I
prty at Hull, to celebrate the triumph of constitutional prin-
ciples in the return of Mr. Carruthers to Parliament for that
borough. It proved the most splendid entertainment ever pro-
duced in' that town, upwards of three hundred and titty gentle-
men meeting in the Music Hall, which was the scene of the
festivity. Around the room were suspended the banners of Mr.
Carruthers, and the company consisted of the .leading men of
the place. H. Broadly, Esq., was in the chair, haying on the
right hand 1). Carruthers, Esq., C. Cresswell, Esq., recorder of
Hull, and other gentlemen;. and on his left E. Gibson, :Esq.,
the toavor of Hull, D. Wranerain, Esq., Alderman Bolton,
&c. Alter the. toast of "The King, God bless him," which "
was received with three times three enthusiastic cheers, and
other 'loyal toasts had been given, the Chairman, in a neat
speechi. gave "Thejiealth of David Carruthers, Esq.," which
was- drawl: with three timea three, .and one cheer more. , -4
Mr. Carruthers, in a speech distinguished for its eloquence'
and manliness, expressed his sense of the manner in which his
health had been drank. Ile referred to the Kopf* ofa re-action
throughout the country in favour of the principles of the Con-
stitution, "It had run like wildfire from the mansion , o the
rich man to the cottage of the poor." Speaking of Couserva-
tism, the honourable member thus expressed himself;—Gen-
tlemen, I ask myself this question, and I say what is Conserva-
tism, and what is Destructivism What is Conservatism
That very man who loves the country in which he breathed-the
first breath,of life ought to be thankful for the constitution un-
der which lie lives, a constitution that gives liberty to all,
that encourages the humblest man by his talent, his worth, his
industry, and, by a combination of circumstances, in the great
and wide field of competition before him, to endeavour to rise
tip to the highest and most honourable station in the country;
as witness a gentleman in this country who was himself a ma-
nufacturer, and whose son now is the prime minister of Eng-
land.--(Cheers.) Gentlemen, this is that Conservatism that
• I have always worshipped; it is that Conservatism that I. ant
ready to sacrifice my lite for the good of.—(Cheers.)--It is tir
the preservation of all ecclesiastical and civil rights; it is for
the preservation of the Constitution in all its force and efficacy
—King, Lords, and Comtnons ; it is for the confusion of the
politics and the frustratiou of the knavish tricks of those who
are opposed to it.—( Loud cheers.)
After various patriotic; toasts and speeches, the meeting li*ke
up, highly gratified at the entertainment they had received.

Sstunnuin Corm—The farmgrs have already an earnest of
that attention to their interests being paid by the present go-
vernment which the late one refused to accord. It hits long
been known that a most iniquitous system of traffic has been
carried on, through the Channel ishiAds, in smuggling wheat
from the continent. The late government, if they did not
openly encourage the traffic, certainly connived at it, as they
refused to put the law in force when the must flagrant cases were
brought before them. But we now live under more favourable
auspices, and we have the pleasure of informing our farming
readers, that Mr. Baring, President of the Board of 'Davie, de-
dared on the hustings, at the teceut election for the county of
Essex, that "his very first
.act, as President of the Board of
Trade, was to detect an abuse of tin porting foreign corn, isith-
out duty, through the Isle of Mau, and to put a stop,to it." To
Itow great an extent this nnprincipled evasion of the law has
been carried on no one can tell; but that it has been assiduously
carried on, to the great injury of the farmer, no one can doubt.
We congratulate the agriculturists that the law will now he put
in force, and thus one source of injuiylo their interests will he
stopHl. For this redress of a grievance they may thank
the King and the tories; the.whigs tamed a deaf ear to them
when complaints were made.—York Chronicle.
