RESIDENT MAGISTRATE'S COURT.
Thursday, October 10. (Before E. H. Came, Esq., R.M.) RENDALL AND BERRY V. O'NEILL. This was a rehearing of a previous action between the same parties wherein the plaintiff was nonsuited. The plaintiff Kendall applied for a postponement of the hearing, n the ground that his professional adviser wns absent. Mr F.J. Wilson, for defendant, asked the Bench to stay proceedings in the case, on the ground that Kendall had not paid the costs of nonsuit in the action heard on the previous Court-day. It was a rule that a second action for the same cause could not be proceeded with until the plaintiff had paid costs of first ae'ion. His Worship concurred ; and Kendall having paid the costs into Court, Mr Wilson objected that Berry was again joined as plaintiff without his consent. Berry, who was present, having stated to the same effect, the Magistrate, with defendant's consent, allowed his name to be withdrawn. Eendall then proceeded to prove his case ; and after four hours' hearing, his Worship deferred giving judgment till next Court-day. SLAUGHTERHOUSE LICENSE. The application of Ceorge Mouson, Carrickton, was granted.
