DOLBY AND ANOTHIER V. LOWN1DES. Mr. AGAR, during a pause occasioned by the Vice-Chaincellor'as risiny to quit the court, said that the bill in this causc was now amended mn the manner suggested to him by the Court on Saturday, and that he would therefore now take the injunction he had then prayel, to restrain the defendant from publishing the comedy of A Woman never Vext ; ox, the IVidow of Corniill. Ar. Lowndes addressed his Hlonour and said, that he had receivea no notice of the application which had been made to the Court but through the public ionrnals. He had therefore been unable to in- struct counsel to ODpose the motion,and as His Hlonour was of opinion that it ought now to go on, he must crave tLe indulgence of being heard to argue his own case in person. The VICE-CIHANCtELLOR explained to Mr. Lowndes, that mo- tions praying for the injunction of the Court were always, by the long-continued practice in Chancery, made exparte, and granted or, the affidavits of the partics who applied for them. It was then for the defendants to move that the injunctions should be dissolved, aad upon this latter miotion the rnerits of the case were argued. When that time should arrive ir. Mr. Lowndeses case, he inight be heard in person if he thought fit; but at present the injunction must be granted. Mlr. Lowndes then withdrew, and the business of the Court, which had been suspended during this conversation, proceeded. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, ON0DAY, Nov. ,2.
