present) of being reprimanded by the judge or chairman, as the case may be, and, perhaps, having costs disallowed," as also to pay our own railway fare and hotel expenses if we go to Swansea. Now, sir, to add to this, a new order has recently been issued. We have to attend the taxing-officer in the court immediately after the case is disposed of (but oftentimes have to wait there during the hearing of two or three other cases) to get the costs taxed, with the alternative, again, of having them disallowed. We have also to take into our charge the whole of our witnesses, because if we go to the treasurer's room, and have not every witness present to receive his money, we are politely told that unless we are 'all' there (viz., the solicitor, or his clerk, and the witnesses) at the same time, neither the solicitor nor anyone else can be paid."

Legal News.

Mr. Baron Huddleston, at the sitting of the Exchequer Division on Wednesday, announced that the Lord Chief Baron, owing to the serious illness of one of the members of his family, had been unexpectedly called to the south of France, and that the sittings at Nisi Prius in the division would therefore be postponed until next week.

The case of Moody v. Steggles, says an American legal journal, involved the question of the right of one to maintain a metal sign affixed to the house of another, it having been so affixed for forty years. The court in delivering judgment gravely remarked: "It is said that the signboard creaks, and that the plaintiffs have no right to cause the annoyance which is produced by the creaking of the signboard. Now, it appears to me, from the evidence, that the signboard, if I may use such an expression, creaks from its own nature. It is not easy, and probably not possible, to expose a wide surface of metal, such as this signboard appears to be, to the action of the wind down this passage without causing some creaking, and it appears to have always creaked more or less. But the evidence goes to show that in the spring of last year it creaked rather more than usual, and then an interview took place between Mr. Vaughan, who was specially affected by it, and the plaintiff, Miss Moody, in which she seems to have offered him the use of the ladder, and to have invited him to grease it himself, which invitation he refused. The whole thing with regard to the creaking is of a trumpery description. It does not appear to me that there has been any creaking in excess of what is naturally incidental to a signboard, and certainly in the later exercise of the right the plaintiff has studiously desired to minimise the inconvenience to the defendant, because it has been erected with indiarubber washers, which undoubtedly have diminished the noise to the greatest possible extent. Therefore, that defence appears to me to be insignificant and idle."

When we

"A Solictor's Clerk," writing to a local journal on the present system of conducting prosecutions, says :-" Up to about eleven or twelve years ago solicitors were paid a fixed sum of £3 for each case at quarter sessions, but at that time the fee was reduced to the sum of £1 11s. 6d. have one case, or even two, as not unfrequently happens, it will, I think, be acknowledged that the remuneration (?) is not excessive. We have, in the first place, to pay the justices' clerk for copies of the depositions, averaging about 38. for each case. Then draw up the brief, attend the court, get the indictment, see that the witnesses are all in their places, and run the risk (if the witnesses are not all

business with considerable assiduity, and (we believe for the first time since the passing of the Appellate Jurisdiction Act) have announced their intention of sitting for five days a week. Up to Wednesday evening last they had finally disposed of four appeals out of seventeen. The list for the present sittings comprises thirteen English, four Scotch, and four Irish appeals. Among the cases yet to be heard are Angus v. Dalton and Julius v. The Bishop of Oxford and Carter (the Clewer Ritual case), but the other appeals are for the most part of little general interest.

IN REVOKING the grant of letters of administration of the estate of the ingenious bather who disappeared from Barmouth last year, leaving behind him his clothes and a sorrowing circle of friends and creditors, Sir James Hannen said he had, over and over again, expressed his anxiety in regard to these cases of grants on presumption of death, and he thought he must have some security in them for the future." This would unquestionably be desirable, but it is rather difficult to see what security can be devised which will shut out the possibility of the re-appearance of the supposed dead Take the case of the late Sir Charles James Napier (reported 1 Phill. 83). That gallant soldier was left for dead on the field of Corunna on the 16th of January, 1809, and was reported, in the despatches published in the London Gazette, as being among the slain. Probate of his will was granted to his brother, yet, in May, 1809, the testator appeared personally in court, and the learned judge revoked the probate and ordered the will to be delivered out of the registry to him. What stronger evidence of death could be wished for than existed in this case?

THE DECISION OF VICE-CHANCELLOR HALL on Saturday last, in Godfrey v. Harben, carries the law as to the

THERE IS YET ONE MORE SAVING to be effected. The only occupant of the chancery offices at Stone-buildings is the Chancery Paymaster, and upon his removal to the rooms prepared for him in the Royal Courts of Justice the Government will get the benefit of the sum to be paid for the vacated offices by the Society of Lincoln'sinn, who have secured the right of preemption. Meantime, the Chancery Paymaster is practically occupying two offices; for while he transacts business at Stonebuildings, the rooms in Carey-street, which have been fitted for him at great expense, are unoccupied, but have to be watched and warmed as if they were fully occupied.

ALTHOUGH NO SUCCESSOR to the late Lord Gordon has yet been appointed, and Lord Selborne is detained at Oxford by the sitting of the University Commission, the law lords have applied themselves to their appellate

woman has general power of appointment one step further than any previously decided case. A married woman having a general power to appoint by will, with a gift over in default, exercised the power by her will. The question was whether the fund appointed was liable as her separate estate to her debts; and the Vice-Chancellor held in the affirmative. The question had been decided the other way by Vice-Chancellor Kindersley in Vaughan v. Vanderstegen (2 W. R. 293, 2 Dr. 165), followed in other cases by Lord Romilly. Sir Richard Kindersley expressly repudiated the ground that there was any distinction between a general power to appoint by deed or will, and one by will only, the power being exercised. He decided on reasons applicable to every case of a general power of appointment. The judgment of Lord Justice Turner in Johnson v. Gallagher (9 W. R. 506, 3 De G. F. & J. 517) and the case of London Chartered Bank v. Lempriere (21 W. R. 513, L. R. 4 P. C. 572) have displaced Vice-Chancellor Kindersley's view of the law, but the last-named decision had reference to the case of a general power exerciseable by deed or will. It therefore still remained open to argue that where the property was not disposable by act inter vivos, the creditors were not let in. The reason for subjecting property in that predicament to the claims of creditors would be, not that the limitation gave the married woman in effect an absolute ownership, but an analogy to the equity which makes a man's debts payable out of funds subject to his general power of appointment actually exercised. Now, the Chartered Bank v. Lempriere went on the ground of substantial ownership. Thus the authorities stood in a curious position; the principle of the decisions in point opposed to the liability had been overruled, but the principle of the later decisions did not cover the present case. It was reasonably to be expected, however, that the analogy of the equity affecting property appointed by a man under a testamentary power would be applied. The difference be
