The docliet this term has been rather large. Several causes have been tried. and olhevs settled or referred. On the first day there were two causes disposed of—I’eake cs. Clougli, absent debtor; verdict £878 Go dd—Havilond and Breciten fuv Pisintili_ —l’aw es Harris and others. absent debtor; verdict £185 8s 4d —l.ewson for Plaintiff. The case of James Anderson vs. Cher. les Dempsey, 'I‘rcver, was then tried; the circumstances of which case are as follows: Alexander M‘I)nna|d having procured the endorsement of Mr_ Anderson (the Plaintiff) lo a bill of exchange for the purpose of more readily negotiating it, and the hill having been refused acceptance, M'[)onald, in order to secure Anderson from loss in case of nun-payment. executed to him a bill ofoale of certain articles of furniture. In the niesntime, before the time {or psynient which had been given to M'Donaid had expired, Mr. Catfray had obtained ejudguient against M‘Donsld. and issued olllelticlllloll therecn,snd having indemnified the Sheriff-—Ueuip. "ey—the defendant in the case, the goods were sold. Anderson, upon this, brought this action, and on the trial proved the slv-cu. tion of the bill of sale; but the witness who proved the signing and sealing, was unable to prove the delivery of a chair in the name oflhe whole: the court. however, ovsruiod thk uhjgciion to the validity ofthe bill ofsaie,on the ground that, as the instru- ment iloeif was under seal and in other respects duly executed, and the only question that could arise was whether it was given for .

Hsviland and llrecken for Plaintiff; Attcr. nsy General, lion E. Palmer and C. Palmer for Defend.“ This case is of importance in two respects. as having decided, firsl, that delivery ofa chattel, when the instrument conveying it is under seal, and for a good consideration. is not Qflnqruigi 35 its validity: and secondly, that the Sheriff or other persons who chose to seize upon goods thus conveyed. must, when the instrument is Iulislnminled in a court oflju-lice, pay the full mine of the articles enumerated in the b~_pf sale, and not the .-uni which they may have realized at e.oe|s by auction. 'I'hs famous case of M'Leaii us. Whelan, for libel, came of yesterday before a special jury. \Vo have not time at present to give" the particulars. 'I‘he case was fairly stated for the plaintiff by Mr. C. Palmer; and Mr. Whelan-—who defended hiinself—inade a spirited defence.

[coisssunicarsn] The adjourned Annual Meeting of the Diocesan Church So- ciety of this Island, was lisld at the Infant School House. on Thursday evening, the lib of January, I851, at 1 o'clock.-the Rev. C. '-ioyd. E C., in the chair. After the offering up of prayer and the singing of the lollth Psalm, the chairman opened the business of the meeting by directing the attention of those pr t to two principal features connected with the Society, the interests of which they were that evening rsiui together to promote. namely, its being a church, as vvoil as a Native So- ciety.-— clinrch in its character and principles, and native in its aspirations and sphere of labor; a Society which not only repre- sented the interests of the Church of England in this co|ony,but expended all its means within its burden; means, however. which. he regretted to say. were as yet but small. and nothing equal to the demands which were made. or even likely to be made, upon it: a Society which had the free and full disposal of its own funds, and over whose laws the Bishop of the Dio- cese had a controlling power. The prospects at‘ the Society, he was g'nd to see, were brightening, especially if he were to lake the attendance this evening. at such an inclement season. as an indication of the interest felt in its operations. The time. he was persuaded, was drawing near, when the venerable Society which had hitherto so generously sustained the cause of the church in this island, would be obliged to withdraw its funds to younger and more destitute colonies, and therefore there was the more need, ere they were altogether thrown upon their own resour- ces, to promote the welfare of that nslive Society to which they must ultimately look for the support of their ministers in this Island. And ufier some further observations. in which he pointed out the duty ofsuslnining their own church, he called on the Secretary to read the annual report. The Report having been read, and the 'l‘relisuver's account submitted to the meeting, it was moved by the Rev. W. Meek. and seconded by Charles l'n|mer, Esq., that the Report now read he adopted, and printed. under the direction of the Curit- miuee. Moved by the Rev. Il.I'nrnther, and seconded by lI.llsszard. q .——'l'hat this meeting desires to return thanks to Alrnigllly God for the many blessings, both temporal and spiritual. which - the City. _ Isouisvinu, Dec. 20.—'l"bo Russeilville Herald says the insurrection excitement still exists in the neighborhood of Volney and Gordonsville.
