John Laycock, draper, was the plaintiff in an action in which he sought to recover the price of goods which had been supplied by him to the wife of the defendant, a dyer named Oswell Tweedale, the sum claimed being 68. 3d. The plaintiff, in reply to his Honour, said that the goods in respect of which he claimed were supplied to the defendant's wife. He could not say that the defendant had authorized his wife to pledge his credit, but he had informed the defendant of the debt, and no objection had been raised by him to it.

It was very important for shopkeepers to know exactly the state of the law with reference to those matters, because, according to his impression, the recent judgment of the House of Lords had declared the law in a clear and distinct manner to an extent which, according to bis experience in that court, would very seriously affect the liabilities of husbands to small tradesmen. Hitherto it had been assumed that the wife, in her character of wife, would be entitled by law to pledge the credit of her husband for necessaries-food and clothing-for herself and her children. It had been assumed that the law gave the wife that authority, and that the husband would be bound by the receipt of any goods of that description which she obtained as his wife. It was now settled law, declared by the House of Lords, that a wife, in her character of wife, had no authority whatever to pledge her husband's credit, even for necessaries. She could only pledge his credit if there was an express authority given to her by her husband, or if the circumstances were such that the court would be justified in inferring that the husband gave his authority. The mere fact that the goods were necessaries, and the mere fact that they had been supplied to the wife for the purposes of the husband, would not bind him to pay for them, because the wife would have no more authority to purchase goods-though necessaries -for the purposes of the family than a servant would have to obtain goods for the use of his or her master in the house. The wife was now reduced by law to the position of a servant, or an agent merely. He had had a case before him at Keighley the other day in which he endeavoured to explain the law. In that case he inquired into the circumstances, as it would be his duty to do in every such case that came before him, in order to ascertain whether he should be justified in assuming from the mode of dealing with the tradesman, that the husband's authority to pledge his credit could be fairly and properly implied. [To the plaintiff: How long did you deal with the wife? Plaintiff: This is the first transaction I bad with her.-His HONOUR: What were the goods ? Plaintiff: A shawl, and I forget the other goods.-Have you received any payment? I received payment of 2s.From whom? From the wife, and she received a note or receipt for it and she brought it every week.] You must get out of your head the notion that the wife has any authority because she is a wife. She has no more authority than a mere servant. [Has the husband been present when any payment has been made? He has been in the shop, but not present when the payment was made.-He has been in your shop when his wife has been there? Yes.] That I think is enough. I shall be justified in inferring that the wife was there with the husband's sanction.-An order was accordingly made for the plaintiff. COUNTY PALATINE OF LANCASTER. LIVERPOOL AND NEVIN GRANITE COMPANY, LIMITRD.-Petition for winding up, presented Dec 10, directed to be heard before Little, V.C., at the Assize Courts, Strangeways, Manchester, on Jan 4.

Dec 17 [Gazette, Dec. 24.] bas At the Liverpool Police-court, on Tuesday, Mr. Raffles, the stipendiary magistrate, gave a decision of some importance in reference to affiliation law. It hitherto been the custom to allow the father of an illegitimate child to be relieved from payment under an affiliation order upon the marriage of the mother. In a recent case, however, the mother, a woman named Mary Finnegan, sned the father, whose name was Richard Hassan, for ten weeks' arrears of payment. The defendant refused to pay on the ground of the woman's marriage, and the magistrate adjourned the case to consider his judgment. He now held that the marriage of the mother was no bar to her claim under the affiliation order. A case for a superior court was granted to the solicitor for the defendant. His HONOUR said he might observe that the declaration of the law to which he had referred would be a great protection for good husbands against bad wives, but at present be failed to see how it would be an equal protection for a good wife against a bad husband. A good wife who had still to live with her husband would have no power to pledge his credit, and he was afraid that where it happened that there was a good wife who was struggling to keep her family decently and properly, and the husband squandered his wages in either the beershop, or the brothel, or the bettingroom which were the three resorts of dissolute and debauched men-wives would be found under that declaration to have no resource but the poor law.

Jaques, Birmingham In charging the jury in a case heard at the Dublin Winter Assizes, on the 7th ult., says the Irish Law Times, Barry, J., said that during his whole career at the bar and upon the bench, he never saw a man wrongly convicted yet, on mistaken identity, but he frequently saw the guilty escape on the notion that there was mistaken identity. One of the members of the bar in Saratoga, says the Western Jurist, relates the following:-" Not long since he was counsel in a case before Judge Pratt, and during the progress of the trial he became somewhat noisy, as he sometimes does, when the judge looked up and said to him: 'Mr. did you ever hear of the man who was lost in the woods during a thunderstorm?' On being answered in the negative, the judge continued: A man in attempting to pass through a piece of woods lost his way, and while he was in that predicament a fearful thunderstorm came up. The woods grew awfully dark. The roaring of the wind and the crashing of the thunder was terrific. The man was frightened and began to pray, 'Give us a little more light, and a little less noise!' I don't mean you, Mr. -,' added the judge. The narrator says that the audience supposed all the time the judge did mean him, and, now that he thinks of it himself, he inclines to that opinion also." In the Vienna Juristische Blaetter, says the Albany Law Journal, we find the following decision on the subject of rewards:-A.'s servant had embezzled 37,000 florins and had fled. A. went to the director of police at Prague and GENTIL, THEODORE, New York, U.S. Jan 22. Ashurst and Co, formally declared before him that he would give ten per Old Jewry GILBY, Rev.

A few days thereafter B. delivered A.'s servant into the hands of the police. 17,372 florins were found on his person. A. refusing to pay B. ten per cent. of this sum, B. brought suit for 1,737 florins. The trial court nonsuited him, it appearing that the servant had voluntarily come to B. and given himself up to him, and that then B. had merely accompanied the servant to the police station. B. appealed, and the Bohemian Supreme Court, and on A.'s further appeal, the Imperial Appellate Court, both decided that B. was entitled to the reward. They held that A. was only interested in the success consequent upon his offer of reward; the manner and mode of effecting it must be immaterial to him. He has n right to scrutinize the action of B., his intent or meritoriousness. Because the servant was arrested, and a part of the money restored to A. he must pay the promised reward to the person who brought this about. Without B. self, and wasted the money. the servant might have changed his mind, concealed him At At a meeting of the board of directors of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, a report was made with regard to the proposal of the chamber, in which a resolution was passed in May last that there should be established a court of commercial reference for the arbitration and settlement of disputes and customs relating to the trades and industry of the district. In accordance with this resolution a committee was appointed which held several meetings, and from its own members appointed a sub-committee to frame a constitution of the proposed tribunal. Wednesday's meeting of the board the draft regulations were presented as the report of the committee. This document sets forth that the object of the tribunal is the determination and settlement of disputes and differences relating to trade, manufactures, and commerce, and to customs of trade, by whomsoever submitted. proposed that there shall be a committee of organization, consisting of the president, vice-president, and directors of the chamber, with power to add to their number from among the ordinary members of the chamber, and this committee is to be invested with the power of framing regulations, appointing arbitrators, and drawing up a list It is of fees and charges. The board approved of the proposed constitution, and decided that the scheme should be submitted for the approval of the members of the chamber at the next annual meeting, about a month hence.
