Before uking him out of the vehicle, defendant struck the horse with a whip, and caM, "You Ihavehad myrevengeonyouatliist." -Thomas Miller, Veterinary Surgeon, said when called upon to attend the horse, found eleven cuts in different places. Both knees ■vere broken. The eye was cut. Bo!h hind etloeka ahd the hocks were cut,. There were Mir.ee cuts on the eide. He believed the in jury was caused by bad driving. He knew that the horse was previously perfectly safe, md aa good a lady's hack as ever went on the ■ oad.—Mr. VVynn, for defence, said ho thought (hat on the point of negligence the Court jould not require him to call evidence, as it was for the plaintiff to prove negligence, and not for the defendant to prove tlmfc there was not, negligence. He wouid take the opinion of the Court on the question before proceeding vith his defence.—After some discussion iefendant wits called, and said ho had nothing' o do with the hiring of the trap from Me. He was simply asked to drivo the imp, a3 the person who hired it wag unable to lrive. Mr. Quick asked him to collect £2 from the party hiring the carriage and four. Ec had had some experience as a driver of four horses. The horse that was injured had no breeching on—nothing but a collar and traces. The break was useless, a3 it had no power on the trap. The accident took place coming down Shortland-street. He put the break on as hard as he could. Coming round the corner of Shortland-street Mr. Cameron had hold of the reins for a short time. The horses walked all the way down the hill. The accident happened opposite Mr. Canning's. He then had full charge of the horses. The horse in question had been uneasy and restless all the drive. The horse plunged himself down. The only way to have avoided the accident would have be, n to a;ive the horses their heads, and gallop down the hill.—Cross-examined by Mr. MacCormick: The man who hired the phaeton did hot go out in it. He went in another trap with, Mr. Campion. The horse fell twice iv Shortland streefc. The first time he squatted down on his haunchea, and then fell. He plunged again about ten yards farther on and fell, and in stead of trying to get up, he plunged and kicked as he lay.—G-. Camoron gave similar evidence.—The Court was of opinion that no negligence had been shown, but that de fendant was liable for the hiring. Judg ment for £2, oosts £3 Bs. '.

[Before His Honor Sir G-. A. Arney, Knight, Chief Justice.]

Dawibis and Lye v. CvxtTWßiaHT.—Judg ment.—Mr. Wynn for plaintiff.—Mr. Rees for defendants.—His Honor gave judgment in this case this morning. He suid : This was abaction for possession of land. The plain tiffs disclosed, in their declaration, a clear legal title, having acquired the fee simple from the iormer owner (one Wroe), by conveyance, so far back as 1863, under which Hold the land upon trust for religious pur ?«« c QS" 16 declaration alleged that in March, LUb6 defendant wrongfully took possession of ana (now) refused to gire up the same. The defendant pleaded, in effect, as follows :— iL «™fter four y«"-« occupation, by leave of Wroe, and after making improvo nnijf' A eru° n ' he > in Ma™h 18™> memoraS, th% all°^ent, and obtained a memorandum of purchase and sale in writing from Wroe, together with the title deeds, and

that in 1860 lie left New Zealand, appointing the plaintiff Lye his attorney, to get the con veyance, collect rents, &c. The declaration farther alleged that the plaintiffs were aware of the purchase by defendant, and that the deed of conveyance was " fraudulently:■ ob>, tamed," with the view of defeating defendant's' claim. (2) Also an equitable plea. And to these the plaintiffs demur: (!)_ That dsfen clant ought, to have alleged that proceedings had been taken by him with the view to plaintiffs baing declared trustees for defendstnt respecting the land, and also with a view to his obtaining n. conveyance from the plaintiff. (2.) The finding of ii jury on the issues of fact raised on these plens, wpuld not determine the right of the parties. The defendant contended* that the only question raked by the pleas was" whether the matter set up would in the' Court of Equity in England entitle the defendant to nil injunction to stay the plaintiffs from further proceeding in this action. In regard to the first ground of demurrer, the defendant would not have strengthened hig plea if. he had appended the allegations suggested by the plaintiffs. In regard to the second, that the finding of a jury upon the facts raised by the defendant would not deter mine the rights of-parties, it is enough for the defendant, upon these issues beiug found for him, he would be entitled, according to the practice of the Courts of Equity in England, to an injunction, fop"he would thereupon be entiled to judgment upon the action. This was the material questions- raised by the. de murrer.—His Honor having cited a number of authorities, gave judgment on the demurrer for the plaintiff.

WRECK OF THE SCHOONER 'JULIA.'

O^E MAN D OWNED

The fore-and-aft schooner Julia, the property of Benjamin P. Greenwood, of Grahamstown,

has been wrecked, whilst on her passage from Omaha to this port. The master of the vessel, Murdoch McKay, arrived in Auckland yester day, and tliis morning made the following Statenwnt before the Collector of Customs : I was master of the Julia, which sailed from BigOhiaha on Thursday/last, the 23th ult.,

with a cargo of 23 tons of firewood, about 4 tons of which were on deck. The only per son on board brides myself was John McUarcly. When wo left the wind was

N.E., blowing fresh, with heavy sea. When we wore about four miles out we tried to stuy,in order to run back to >inaha, but she would not come round. Afc \\\m Lime, 4.30 p.m., she had nliou't three feet of water in hr, and at 5 p.m wo anchored at Tokatea Poi*t, about oue hundred yards off. She held on till one o'clock in tho morning, when the cablo parted, and the vessel went ashore on the rocks. The dingy got washed olf her decks when she struck. Mclfardy and I were standing amidships, and she went to pieces in ten minutes. I jumped overboard, and told Me Hardy to follow. I never saw him afterwards. Tho masts and rigging came clown at the lime, and he may have got en- Innpled. I swum ashore, and waited till day break, and then walked rouud to the Maori encampment, and sent some of them to the scene of tho wreck. They re ported that the vessel was all smashed up, and nothing to bo seen of Mcllnrdy. I went to Matakaua and then came on to Auckland. Me Hardy was about twenty-five years of age, and hud been in the vessel some time. It was impossible to get ashore in t'io dingy as there was a very heavy sea running.

THE INSURGENT PROGRAMME.

The following is the full text of the manifesto of the Republican League of the Union :— "Dear Fellow Citizens,—The siege of Pin-is has recommenced. A French -Government! dares to continue the work of Prussians,, and to bombard our city. We protest on behalf of the whole of Paris, shuddering with indig nation. It is time to put;: a stop to this fratricidal struggle, which i 3 only prolonged through horrible misunderstanding. It will, and must cease. The day wliea wo shall' prove fco France that Paris* far from desirins:' to impose on France her will, only demands for herself to be independent, and wishes to support and defend not such or such personal ities but the great principle of her Communa^ liberty. What is that Communal liberty ? Upon what points do the Bourgeoise and thd probitary population of Paris a<n-ee ? We have indicated them already—let us bl precise. Paris' elects a Municipal Council' charged to regulate alone the budget of th^ city. The police, the assistance publique, the instruction and the guarantee of liberty of freedom are dependent from that Council. There is no other army in. Paris but'the National G-uarda, composed of all'able-bodied electors,- it elects its own offieei-3 and staff,' according to theregulations laid down,by the Municipal Council, in such a manner that the army is always subordinate to the civil, authorities. Paris contributes her own share in. the general defences of France, and in tho Contingent, in case of a national iwaiy, no army-is allowed to enter Paris, and certain limits are fixed to the troops, which they cannot overstep, as is, the case in London, and as it was even the case in Paria under the Constitution of Article 3. Paris elects its functionaries and magistrates. . The legiti mate complaints are present to tho mind of all; but by this does Paris separato itself from France? No. Paris does not want to destroy the work of the great French Ecvolii tion—she wishes to continue it; but Paris during tho last 20 jeaca has been more .oppressed than the rest of the country; she wishes now to reconquer her privileges, and

to, aSrm her rights. The recent movement is not insurrection, but a revolution. It is necessary that the Government should bind itself to abandon all investigations into the facts which have been accomplished since the 18th of March last. It is .necessary, on the .other. hand, in order to assure the free ex r£efcsion of universal suffrage, to proceed with the general elections of the O6mmime of Paris We require a _ great and powerful expression of public opinion to put an entf-'to the struggle. Let the whole of ParifVoW witiS us to-day a8 she did during the seige ; for the salvation' of the Republic and of Wance w at state. Should the Government; of Versailles remain d^b to those legitimate vindications, I; let'.it be w|ll aware that Paris sball ris.3 as one.man; to defend them."

OPPRESSION OF THE JEWS IN RUSSIA.

A short time since it was reported that the Emperor of Itussia, desirous, of bringing about such an assimilation of the Jews in hi* domi mon Wl th.the rest.of hispeople as-thafeAvhich He imagined to exist in Germany, had issued certain vevy-foolish and oppressive regulations as to the dress ,and particularly the hair of his rnaloand female subjects belonging to the Jewish faith. Having " their hair cut shorfc and their coats, cut, long'^ould, he calculated, make them fight like lions-for it was chiefly the bravery, displayed by the Jewish, soldiers in the late war which had inspired his Majesty wtth tins sublime notion. But on .second thoughts these measures, tilling as they were, did not seem to suffice. A new more oppressive, and at the same time utterly, tutile decree has emanated from his Majesty, ordenng the Jews henceforth neither to pray in-Hebrew nor in Polish, but in Russian. Anything, more calculated fo exasperate the orthodox Jews in his dominions and more difficult to enforce cannot be imagined.; Even npart from the fact that no Jew is by any religious law bound to pray in a synagogue ~ praying ■ with a -congregation being"meraly recommended—and that a supervision- of private devotion would be a rather trouble some task, his Majesty seems to forget that people need not open their lips when they pray; and, whether the precenter sang'in 'Jimbuctoo or in Sanscrit,, the individual worshippers may always stick to his .Hebrew* even in those prayers which hitherto used to be recited loudly. And what will be done with thosa prayers which the Ritual insists upon being absolutely " silent ?"—Pall Matt' Gazette. ■'■ ■ • *' '>' ■•■

AMUSING DISCOMFITURE OF LEGACY HUNTERS.

In a village aboub four miles from Notting ham (a Jocal correspondent'writes)'an eccentric old gentleman, unmarried, and reputed to be very rich, recently made his will. He bequeathed £10,000 to the General Hospital; and a like . sum to the Society; for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. To one relative ho left'£looo, and legacies to the amount of £500 were-numerous. Tho total, amount bequeathed amounted .to £45,000. The secret leaked out. of the bene ficent, acts of the testator, and the expectant legatees were very demonstrative in their expressions of thanks. Presents of wine, game, and other good things.were.sent in profusion to the unpretending but'obmfof table", cottage in which the recluse1 resided, attended only by au aged woman. Alt hough' extremely reluctant to leave the shelter of his own roof, he was frequently compelled to yield to the solicitations of his friends; and pay them long visits. A Nottingham cab and coach proprie-; tor placed his vehicles." .and . horses at his service in gratitude for having--been put down in the will for the handsome sum of £500. The old gentleman was courted by more than one lady whose early youth had.passed, but: who had no objection to a widow's oortion of a considerable fortune. It is difficult to imagine a" more comfortable existence than1 the generous testator Ted in his declining years, each of his friends rivalling the others in feasting him, aud smoothing his descent, to the grave. He died at ih'e reverend ago of 84,, only a few days since; and "the friend at whose bouse ho breathed " his last houpred; [his remains'with an expensive funeral. Tins friend had also the melancholy' satisfaction of paying the expenses, for the testator died, considerably in debt. The large sums he had bequeathed existed only in imagination.— Manchester Examiner,

An inspection of Mr.F. H. Lewisaon's shop, nearly opposite the-'Unibn Bank, Lower Queen stteet,'will show what can be done in the Thunufacture of jewellery in Auckland. There rings, lockets, brooches, earrings, and other forms of jewellery, manufactured in Mr. Lewissou's shop in Albert-street, are spread out in tempting profusion, anrl are no less remarkable for their variety and originality > than for their tastefulness, and their very excel lent workmanship! We cannot undertake to; describe here the various buds, leaves, plants/ flowers, and other things, formed out of gold, silver, quartz* greenstone, cornelian, kauri gum, and other materials selected for, the purpose. They must be inspected, in order to their being appreciated* and this they will bo largely by the. favourers of colonial, industries. Mr. Lewisson's jewellery has, of course, to compete with the cheaply worked productions if Great Britain and the Continent of Europe, but from this ifcjias nothing, to fear. Its superior quality, and greater, durability will not only tend.ta-iLs.beinKJiu!gely,,jfor.n here,,batjto its ,being extensively exported. Those desiring to isend presents home will find all they could wish in Mr. Lewiaaon's shop to select from. Many of the articles for inspection and sale are as unique as they are beautiful. Mr. Lewisson's investment of capital, spirit of enterprise, and artistic skill deserve all the countenance and support.tha|; can be accorded tjoiiifai.—iJj&jn^ Jxewb.— [Aiviv] \|
