UNITED LAW STUDENTS' SOCIETY.

On Monday, the 12th inst., a meeting of this society was held at the Law Institution under the presidency of Mr. D'A. B. Collyer, when the following moot was discussed:-"A collision occurring between an omnibus and a goods van through the joint and equal negligence of the driver of each, can a passenger in the omnibus who sustains injury thereby maintain an action against the owner of the van? (Thorogood v. Bryan, 8 C. B. 115, 1 S. L. C. 315, 316, 8th ed.)." The discussion was opened by Mr. Mott-Whitehouse in the negative. Mr. Tillotson argued in support of, and Messrs. Nelham, Maclaren, Swepstone, and Pickersgill argued against, the opinion of the opener. Mr. Mott-Whitehouse replied, and after the president had summed up a division was taken and the moot decided in the affirmative by a majority of two.

The usual weekly meeting of this society was held on Wednesday, the 14th inst., at Clement's-inn Hall, Mr. B. T. Bartrum in the chair. The motion on the paper was "That this society approves of the expulsion of the Jesuits from France." Mr. Beaumont-Morice moved the rejection of the motion, and was supported by Messrs. Derry, Kains-Jackson, W Phillips, and Pain, and opposed by Messrs. Mott-White

house and Maclaren. Mr. Owen spoke upon the motion from a neutral point of view. Mr. Beaumont-Morice then replied and a division was taken, and the motion lost by a majority of five.

The Scotsman announces the death of Mr. W. Wilson, of the old-established Edinburgh firm of Dundas & Wilson, W.S., which took place at his residence in Melville-street on Thursday week. The deceased was born in 1805, and had thus attained his seventy-fourth year. He had been ailing for some months, but may be said to have died in harness. The son of a Writer to the Signet, Mr. Wilson was trained to the same profession, bis education being conducted at the Edinburgh High School and University. Besides taking his share in the extensive business of the firm with which he was through life connected, he long acted as a director of the Scottish Widows' Fund, and as an ordinary director of the Royal Bank.

Solicitors' Cases.

HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE.

QUEEN'S BENCH DIVISION.
(Before COCKBURN, L.C.J., and LOPES, J.)

July 12.-In the Matter of a Solicitor.
Anstie showed cause against a rule nisi obtained on behalf
of the Incorporated Law Society, calling upon a solicitor to
answer the matters of an affidavit. The applicant in the
case, one Livsey, had instructed the solicitor in question to
bring an action against a bank for negligence in having failed
to advise bankers in London to meet a bill for him on its
arrival at maturity. Mr. Livsey did not claim to have
suffered any serious loss, and the matter was settled on the
terms that he should be paid £10 10s. and £3 3s. costs. The
fact of this settlement had not been communicated to Livsey,
and, indeed, when asked some eight months afterwards by
the son of the latter how the matter had ended, the solicitor
had told him that he was still in negotiation with the gentle-
man acting for the bank. The solicitor said that he had
forgotten at this time what the real facts were, and he now
stated in his affidavit that he had paid the money over in
June last to the trustee in bankruptcy of his client. The
learned counsel said he could not deny that the solicitor had
been guilty of some negligence and irregularity in the matter,
but he contended that the case was not one which the court
could look upon as in any way a serious one.

W. Murray, who appeared on behalf of the Incorporated Law Society, called the attention of the court to the fact that though the money had been paid to the solicitor as far back as September, 1878, he had only paid it over in June last, and that, too, subsequently to the date at which the present rule had been obtained against him.

COCKBURN, L.C.J., said that, to say the least of it, the solicitor had been guilty of great carelessness. The amount was very small, and the case was hardly one for suspension. The rule, however, would be discharged only on the terms that he should pay all the costs of this application.-Times.

second piece came, with the remaining portion of the 220 yards now sued for. On receiving the plaintiff's invoice, namely, on the 24th, the defendants on the same day wrote to the plaintiff refusing to accept the cloth, on the ground that it was not made according to agreement, and that it was too weak to be of any use. The plaintiff replied by letter that the cloth had been made purposely for the defendants, and according to agreement, and that it would not be taken back. Upon these facts I have come to the conclusion that this action cannot be supported, and that upon two grounds-first, that the contract in this case being executory, no property passed to the defendants until acceptance or approval by them. The law is clear, that where a chattel is ordered to be made the right of property is not vested in the party who gives the order, nor the right to the price in the vendor, until the thing ordered is completed, and has been approved of by the purchaser or some person appointed on his behalf to inspect the materials and workmanship. In giving judgment in Street v. Bray (2 B. & Ad. 463), Lord Tenterden said, "Where an article is ordered from a manufacturer, who contracts that it shall be of a certain quality or fit for a certain purpose, the purchaser may either refuse to receive or he may return the article as soon as he detects its price." In the present case the sale by the plaintiff to the deficiency, and thereby wholly defeat an action for the defendants was conditional, to become absolute only upon the cloth answering a specified purpose. The defendant, who had had experience of the strength required in cloth for the purposes of this particular trade, found by inspection that it was deficient and would not answer the purpose, and a trial was unnecessary, and the cases show that under such circumstances the defendants had the right to reject (Andrews v. Belfield, 2 C. B. N. S., 789; Lucy v. Monplet, 5 H. & N. 229). In the case before me I am satisfied from the facts that the contract between the parties was that the plaintiff was to furnish the defendants with a material suitable for the purpose required and described, that it was not in the nature of a warranty, but in fact conditional sale, that it would answer such purpose. Although no trial was made by the defendants as to the fitness of the material supplied, the evidence on that head satisfied me that the defendants had not got that they had bargained for, and hence there was no contract upon which an implied promise to pay could be raised. The second ground on which, if it stood alone, the plaintiff must fail, arises from the fact that the plaintiff, on an order for fifty yards, sent 220. The law upon this is that where more goods are sent than the purchaser agreed to buy, he may refuse to receive any portion of the goods s0 sent, and is not bound to incur risk or trouble in selecting some things and sending back others. In such cases the seller does not comply with his contract by tendering or delivering either more or less than the exact quantity contracted for (Hart v. Mills, 15 M. & W. 85; Cunliffe v. Harrison, 6 Ex. 903). Being of opinion that either of these grounds is an answer to the plaintiff's action, there must be a verdict entered for the defendants, with costs.

Quarter Sessions.

His HONOUR, who had reserved his judgment in this case, said:-This is an action brought to recover from the defendants £13 5s. 10d., being the amount claimed for the manufacture by the plaintiff of 220 yards of hemp sheeting made to the defendants' order, and which sheeting the defendants refused to accept. The plaintiff is a linen manufacturer in Leeds, and the defendants carry on the business of grease extractors at Dewsbury. In the month of August last the defendant Hirst called at the plaintiff's place of business with a view of ascertaining whether the plaintiff could make a linen cloth suitable for the purpose of extracting under pressure grease from shoddy and similar materials, the defendant describing the kind of cloth which had been sup plied to him for that purpose by a firm at Hull, but whose works were at that time closed. At that interview it was agreed that the plaintiff should, as an experiment, make some cloth such as was required, and that if it was successful future (Before PHILIP CHASEMORE GATES, Esq., Q.C., Recorder) orders were to follow. The price was left an open question. There was a conflict of evidence at the hearing between the plaintiff and defendant as to the number of yards which were to be made for the purpose of the experiment, the plaintiff alleging it was 220 yards and the defendant 50. Upon carefully weighing the facts, I have arrived at the conclusion that the actual number of yards agreed upon was 50, and not 220. On the 14th September the plaintiff sent to the defendants' manufactory at Dewsbury a piece of the manufactured cloth containing 105 yards, but as it was unaccompanied by any letter or other means of ascertaining who was the sender, it lay on the defendants' premises untouched until the 24th of September, when the

BRIGHTON.

July 9.-Reg. v. Latter.
Correcting record of verdict.

The prisoner was indicted for stealing fifty-one iron bolts and fifty rivets, the property of his master, Job Pack. After the recorder had summed up, the jury did not quit the box, but on their turning round

Evershed (Clerk of the Peace).-"Gentlemen are you all agreed upon your verdict?"

Several Jurymen.-" We are."

Evershed." Which is your foreman ?"

The jury turned about again, and some said, "We haven't elected one."

[blocks in formation]

Evershed.

[ocr errors]

"You say the prisoner is not guilty and that is the verdict of you all? The Foreman.-"Yes."

The learned RECORDER made a note in his book and the clerk of the peace recorded the verdict in the court book and also on the back of the indictment. The COURT then adjourned for twenty minutes.

The prisoner had been removed from the dock; two of the jurymen had left the box and gone out of court; and two more had left the box but remained in court, when a juryman called the attention of the usher to the circumstance that the verdict as given by the foreman was not that of the jury.

The RECORDER was sent for, and on his asking the jury whether there was any mistake about the verdict, he was informed that the verdict was Guilty, but recommended to mercy on account of his previous good character."

66

The RECORDER (to the foreman).-"Is that what you meant when you said not guilty on the grouud of his previous good character?"

The Foreman.-"Yes, Sir."

The RECORDER." Then this seems to be a clear mistake, but I do not see that I can do anything until the prisoner is present."

The prisoner was brought back into court and placed in the dock, his counsel protesting against this course.

Merrifield, for the prosecution, called attention to Roscoe's Criminal Evidence, 9th ed., p. 223:-"Verdict.-If by mistake the jury deliver a wrong verdict (as where it is delivered without the concurrence of all), and it is recorded, and a few minutes elapse before they correct the mistake, the record of the verdict may also be corrected: R. v. Parkins (1 Moo. C. C. 46). In R. v. Vodden (Dears. C. C. 229, 23 L. J. M. C. 7), one of the jury pronounced a verdict of Not Guilty,' which was entered by the clerk of the peace in his minute book, and the prisoner was discharged; other jurymen then interfered and said their verdict was 'Guilty,' whereupon the prisoner was brought back, and the jury being again asked for their verdict, they all said it was Guilty,' and that they had been unanimous; a verdict of guilty having been recorded, it was held by the Court of Criminal Appeal that the verdict was properly amended and that the conviction must stand."

Warner Sleigh, for the prisoner, pointed out that the same case was treated on in Archbold's Criminal Pleading, 19th ed., p. 179, and in that comment there was a very material addition. The learned author said, "The jury themselves may, before the verdict is recorded (or even promptly after, the verdict is recorded: R. v. Parkin, 1 Moo. C. C. 45) rectify their verdict, and it will stand as ultimately amended (1 Chit. Crim. L. 647). This may be done even after the defendant has been discharged (in pursuance of a supposed verdict of acquittal) out of the dock, if before the jury have left the box: R. v. Vodden (Dears. 229, 23 L. J. (M. C.) 7.)" Here that essential was absent. The jury had left the box, had discharged their panel and separated. [He proposed to adduce the testimony of some of the jurymen as to what had actually happened. This was allowed, although no further oath than the jury oath originally taken was administered. It was deposed that two of the jury had left the box, proceeded through the outer hall and vestibule of the court into the lobby, and so to the porch, a distance of some two hundred yards from the jury box, though they had not actually passed from beneath the roof of the building. Two others had not quitted the court, although one had wholly, and the other partially, left the box. It did not transpire whether any of the four had spoken to, or been spoken with, by any of the outside

public. The learned Recorder made a note of the facts as thus taken to be proved, and they were agreed to as correct by the jury and the counsel on both sides.] The jury had made deliverance between the Crown and the prisoner at the bar. They had fully performed their duty, and were then functi officio. Should the prisoner be again indicted for the same charge he might plead autrefois acquit."

The RECORDER doubted that proposition.

Merrifield contended that the jury had not actually separated and been discharged of their panel.

The RECORDER took time to consider, the prisoner being released on bail until five o'clock.

At that hour,

The RECORDER said that, entertaining no doubt in his own mind that the jury had not actually sepa rated, and that, therefore, the opportunity of amendment established by R. v. Vodden had not gone by, he did not think he ought to grant a case, and, therefore, there was no pretext for respiting judgment. As the prose cutor desired to join in the recommendation of the jury, he (the Recorder) had great pleasure in giving effect to that re commendation by sentencing the prisoner to only one month's imprisonment with hard labour.

THE LAW OF LIBEL.

THE Select Committee appointed to inquire into the present state of the law of libel held its final meeting on Wednesday, the Attorney-General in the chair. The following report was adopted, and afterwards presented to the House:

"(1) Your committee have not thought it necessary to call witnesses upon the matters referred to them. They have had the advantage of the evidence taken by the Select Com mittee of 1879, who, owing to the short time at their disposal, were unable to report, and your committee are of opinion that through the labours of the former committee sufficient information has been accumulated for the purposes of this inquiry.

"(2) Your committee have confined themselves to an examination of the state of the law affecting civil actions and criminal prosecutions for newspaper libel, and to the changes which, in their judgment, should be made therein.

"(3) It appears to your committee that one of the most important points of the subject referred to them is the ques tion of extension of privilege to newspaper reports of the proceedings of a public meeting.

"(4) Your committee, after careful consideration, have come to the conclusion that the balance of convenience requires that further protection should be given to such reports.

"(5) Your committee accordingly recommend that any report published in any newspaper of the proceedings of a public meeting should be privileged if such meeting was lawfully convened for a lawful purpose, and was open to the public, and if such report was fair and accurate and published without malice, and if the publication of the matter complained of was for the public benefit.

"(6) But your committee are of opinion that such protection should not be available as a defence in any proceed. ing if the plaintiff or prosecutor can show that the defendant has refused to insert a reasonable letter or statement of explanation or contradiction by or on behalf of such plaintiff or prosecutor.

"(7) Your committee recommend that no criminal prosecution for libel published in a newspaper shall be commenced against the proprietor, publisher, or any one responsible for the publication of a newspaper for any libe! published therein without the fiat of the Attorney-General being first obtained.

66

(8) Your committee are also of opinion that the name of every proprietor of a newspaper, or in the case of several persons engaged as partners in such proprietorship the names of all such persons should be registered at the office of the Registrar of Joint-Stock Companies, with fall particulars of the addresses and occupations of all such persons or of any change therein."
