Legal News.

Mr. Naish, Q.C., has been appointed law adviser at Dublin Castle.

The Manchester Incorporated Law Association has received a communication from the Lord Chancellor stating that a new rule has been made closing the office of the District Registry at Manchester during Whitsun week.

It is understood that immediately after the 20th inst., when Parliament re-assembles, the private business before committees will be pushed forward with the utmost possible vigour, so as to make the best in this respect of a necessarily short session.

An additional election judge has been selected by each of the Common Law Divisions. There are now, conse. quently, six judges on the rota for that purpose, viz. :Mr. Justice Lasb, Mr. Justice Denman, Mr. Baron Pollock, Mr. Justice Manisty, Mr. Justice Hawkins, and Mr. Justice Lopes. A meeting of the six judges was held on Tuesday afternoon at the Royal Courts of Justice and it is expected that the dates for proceeding with the trial of some of these petitions will be very shortly announced.

The Right Hon. John Thomas Ball sat for the last time in the Court of Appeal on the 7th inst., as Lord Chancellor of Ireland, and received farewell addresses from both branches of the legal profession. The Attorney-General (Mr. Gibson), addressing the Lord Chancellor, said that he had been requested by the bar to express their appreciation of the manner in which he had presided in that court for the last five years. They desired to express their admiration and respect for the power, capacity, learning, and impartiality which had uniformly marked the discharge of the duties of his high office. They all most cordially acknowledged the attention, kindness, and courtesy that every member of the profession, no matter how junior, had experienced from his lordship. In the exercise of his important jurisdiction he had won the confidence and respect of the public and of the bar. The Lord Chancellor in reply, said: "I acknowledge with gratitude the kindness which has induced the bar to accompany my retirement from office with an expression of their favourable opinion. I accepted it not without solicitude and a sense of the great responsibility connected with the discharge of its duties, for I was aware that in addition to the judicial and political burden that had fallen upon my predecessors the introduction of a new system in our judicature, the reorganization of the official staff of the various courts united under it, and the necessity of presiding over an Appeal Court where every variety of procedure and question could be brought for determination, would impose duties of a novel and arduous character. If in some degree, as your kindness uggests, I have been able to meet the difficulties of the position, I owe it to the assistance I have received."

eminently to the candour, the firmness, the learning and accomplishments of the bar that I and every other person who fills the office I now resign must look for support in fulfilling its duties. Generous, forbearing, and the more so because of their own attainments, supplying every legitimate argument or illustration in aid of decision, they have always extended their courtesy, their consideration, to the least experienced judge. No difference of political opinion has ever yet sundered the relations which, from daily intercourse, from a noble rivalry in assisting and defending alike private and public rights bind the whole profession-bench and bar-together as brethren. With a fervent prayer that your old reputation may be undiminished, your efficiency and integrity unimpaired, above all that you may continue to teach how mutual esteem and mutual affection may co-exist with free and independent difference of opinion upon subjects in respect of which men must and will differ, my dear friends (for looking round I see none but friends), I bid you farewell-a respectful and affectionate farewell." Mr. Henry A. Dillon, president of the Irish Incorporated Law Society, read an address from the solicitors bearing cordial testimony to his lordship's dignity, courtesy, and ability, and to the regard which he had always shown for the interests of their profession. The Lord Chancellor replied in graceful terms, and then left the bench amid loud applause.

NATIONAL PROVINCIAL BANK.-At the meeting of the shareholders of the National Provincial Bank, held on Thursday, a dividend and bonus of ten per cent. for the halfyear was declared, making, with the distribution in January last, nineteen per cent. for the year, and leaving a balance of £21,757 4s. 9d. of undivided profits to be carried forward. Of the 28, 125 new shares issued, certain shares from various circumstances were not taken up. These having been forfeited and subsequently sold, yielded a profit of £7,576, which it is proposed to carry to credit of profit and loss account for the present year. At a meeting of shareholders, held on the 8th of April last, it was unanimously decided to register the bank as a bank with limited liability, under the Companies Acts, with an increase to the subscribed capital of £8,025,000, which will form the reserve liability of the bank. Power was given to the directors to register the bank on or before the 31st of July, and in pursuance thereof they propose to effect registration on the 1st of July next.

session. As we have often pointed out, the amendments needed are perfectly well' ascertained, and will not be seriously combatted. We have had inquiry on inquiry, and if ever a subject was ripe for legislation, this is.

A BATCH OF NEW RULES of the Supreme Court came into operation last Saturday; and, as usual, are made known to the public some days afterwards. They are chiefly amendments and alterations of the Rules of April last. The most important change is the annulling of the rule relating to the register of Bills of Sale. Messrs. Stubbs & Perry are to be permitted to continue their publications, and it is merely now provided that official searches may be made and certificates given of the result. Another rule qualifies the generality of the provision of ord. 37, rule 3, that " every affidavit shall be filed at the Central Office," by providing that it shall not apply to affidavits required to be filed in a district registry. The rules as to applications at chambers are also declared not to be applicable to district registries; and it is provided that the forms in the schedule to the Rules of April may be used in district registries with such variations as circumstances require. By another rule, ord. 54, rule 10, is amended by omitting the provisions that summonses attended by counsel shall not be heard before two in the afternoon. The last rule provides for a vacation at the Manchester District Registry of five days next after Whit Monday. We have an impression that some further amending rules will be necessary before the Rules of April, 1880, will work satisfactorily.

THE CAUSE LISTS of the Chancery Division, with which the five chancery judges will begin the work of Trinity Sittings, contain in all 422 causes. Of this number 94 are before the Master of the Rolls, 51 of them being

causes with witnesses. Vice-Chancellor Malins has also 94 causes; Vice-Chancellor Bacon 67; Vice-Chancellor Hall 90, and Mr. Justice Fry 77. It is singular that in the Easter Sittings the number of causes on these lists was also exactly 422. At the beginning of Trinity Sittings last year the number of causes was 390. The new appeal list contains 151 appeals, of which 74 are from the Chancery Division, and 77 from the common law divisions. Last Easter there were 158 appeals, and in Trinity, 1879, 184 appeals.

IF THE LEGISLATION mentioned in the Queen's Speech affords any guide to the work of the session, the Statutebook will this year be reduced below even the rapidly diminishing dimensions of recent sessions. The five measures announced are, however, probably only offered as an instalment, and we are not without hope that a Bankruptcy Law Amendment Bill, proceeding on the lines of the Act of 1869, and aiming at the removal of the defects which have brought that Act into discredit, will find a place among the Government measures of this

The

SOME VERY AWKWARD QUESTIONS with reference to the provisions in the Judicature Acts for bringing in parties other than the plaintiff and defendant in an action were raised in the recent case of The Yorkshire Wagon Company v. Newport Coal Company (28 W. R. 505, L. R. 5 Q. B. D. 268). In the case iu question parties were brought in on a most extensive scale; not only did the defendant bring in a third party, but the third party brought in a fourth party, and the fourth party brought in a fifth party. In the case of each party so brought in a master had made an order, under the provisions of oră. 16, r. 21, reserving to the judge at the trial discretion as to the costs. There was no dispute that by this it was meant that the judge should have full power to order the parties so brought in to receive, as well as to pay, costs. The combination of circumstances from which the necessity for bringing in this long chain of parties arose is by no means an exceptional one. plaintiff sued to recover the possession of certain goods. The defendant made title to them under the third party, the third party under the fourth, and so on, each party claiming indemnity in case of an adverse verdict against his immediate predecessor in title, and wishing to bind him by the verdict for the purposes of the subsequent claim for such indemnity. The result of the case is to show that the provisions of the Judicature Act and Rules with regard to this matter are somewhat crude and difficult of practical application. It seems as if they were drawn in contemplation solely of a verdict for the plaintiff, and that their framers did not sufficiently bear in mind the possibility of a verdict for the defendant. The defendant in the case we are discussing got a verdict on the evidence of the fifth party, who proved that his title to the goods was better than the plaintiff's. The question then arose who was to pay the costs of all the parties who had been brought in. Clearly not the plaintiff, for he had not desired them to be brought in, and had nothing to do with bringing them in. Ultimately the judge practically ordered the defendant to pay the costs of all of themat least, he ordered the fourth party to pay the costs of fifth, and the third to pay the costs of the fourth, including the costs he had to pay to the fifth, and the defendant to pay the costs of the third party, including
