DATT e. 1110DOKINSON.
This was an action for the repairs of a house. The
tenement in question is situate in Albion-place, Black-
friars, and belongs to the city of Leedom. It was de-
mised by the city some years since to Mr. Jobs Moan;
Mr. Sosne let the hone, upon lease to the plaintiff, Mr.
Davy ; Mr. Davy uaderlet it to the defendant, Mr.
Hodgkinson ; and Mr. Hadgkinson, in his turn, let it
to a certain Mr. Mann. Throughout the lettings there
was a clause for keeping the premises in tenantable re-
pair ; and, upon the determination of the original lease
in the course of last year, a claim for dilapidation ret
toceim like, a signal for strife to all concerned. i
city demanded 1001. for repairs ; Mr. Same pet the
once upon his lessee, Mr. Davy ; Mr. Davy shifted the
claim to his tenant, Mr. Hodgkinson ; Mr. Hodgkinsoa,
in his turn, attacked Mr. Mann; and Mr. Mann, haviag
no one in his rear, stood boldly at bay, and refused pay-
ment. Legalproceedings were, in consequence, taken ;
Mr. Same recovered by arbitration against the present
plaintiff, Mr. Davy ; and Mr. Davy, in doe coarse, for
amount of repairs, and costs of defence to Mr. Sonne's
snit, now brought his action against Mr. Hndgkiasoe.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages
to be settled out of Court.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Jinn IL

SERI V. WARD, CLERK.
This important case having been specially fitted for to.
day and to-morrow by the Chief Justice, at the joist
request of both parties, the court was thronged at an
early hot', this morning, and the galleries led with
ladies. It is, we understaod, an issue directed by the
Court of Chancery, to try the legitimacy of the birth of •
Mrs. Beer, in the year 1141 ; and the inestion involve a
eery considerable property. The Solicitor-Berbera, at-
tended to lead on the part of the plaiatiff; sad Mr.
Searlett for the defendant. After thoJary ems swells up-1
wards of an hour and a half was columned in private '
discussion between the counsel and agents at both shies;
the result of which was an application by Mr. Scarlett
to his Lordship to postpone the trial to some future day
lie (Me. Scarlet') not finding himself in that state to
make a defence in which he bad expected be should be ;
and if, by the day to be appointed, be did not find him-
self in • better situation, his Lordship, is all probability,
would not be troubled with the case at all.
This proposal, after some hesitation, baying been as-
sented to by the plaintifrs counsel, his Lordship fixed the
first Monday after next term for the trial.
The Court then adjourned until Trinity term.

POLICE.

AlANstox Horse.—Mr. Parkins yesterday attended at
the Alansion-Honse, with two persons, who were pre-
pared with papers, and who were understood to be wit-
nesses, whose evidence he meant to offer epee some ap-
plication, which he intended to make against the Society.
called " The Constitutional Association."
Mr. Parkins stated to the Lord Mayor, that he was
prepared with witnesses on the matter to which he had
before claimed the attention of his Lordship. Bet be
said, Mr. Harmer, who had been engaged in the busi-
ness, and who had some necessary papers and documents
in his possession, without which they could sot eater
into the business, had been unexpectedly detained in a
case of importance is which he was merged, bat be ex-
pected him in a short time, if his Lordship should be
able to stay longer in the Chair.
The LORD MATOR said, he was obliged to go, in the
coarse of a few minutes, to take the Chair at a Com-
mittee of Privileges respecting the t:laims at the ap-
proaching Coronation. His Lordship expressed his
readiness to give the matter due attention on the first
day that should be convenient to Mr. Parkins and the
other Gentlemen.
Mr. Parkins said, that as his Lordship would be ttn-
able to enter into the matter that day, he (Mr. Parkins)
could not at that moment fix any time when he shonld
be able to bring the mattes. forward, but it should be at
the earliest opportunity.
Hott.nosue—CacaLts TO ANIMALS.—Mr. Martin,
the Member for tialway, appeared yesterday at this of-
fice, to substantiate charges of cruelty against two fel-
lows of whose barbarity he had been an eye-witness, and
who, upon his complaint, bad been smomoned upon a
previews day. One of them, however, only made his
appearance, a decent-looking voting man, named Cox,
residing in Bishop's-court, Old Bailey. Mr. Martin
stated, that his attention was arrested in Oiltspar-street,
on Monday last, by a great crowd, which was drawn to-
gether by the brutal treatment that the prisoner was in-
dicting upon a horse, in the shafts of a cart which he
was barking out of a narrow court. He said be was well
used to horses, to driving, and to see driving, bat bad
sever witnessed sacb barbarous treatment to that noble
animal beforsia his life. The fellow seemed to he maltiag
an exhibition of himself by the creel mistime in which
he was beating the animal. He bad ;Wirbred in the
neighbourhood as to his character, and he was sorry
to say it was very far from being rensarkable for hu•
inanity. The prisoner admitted striking the horte, ba
wished to dray that it had been done in the cruel iman
n r described by Mr. Martin. That- gratletipas, hew
