We publish on the first page the judgâ€" ment of the Court of Queen‘s Bench, Torâ€" onto, on a case of some importance to owners of vehicles who come in contact with the rails of the Street Railway. Mr. Kaddy sued the company in the County Mb&obmflowndhhmm van on the track in Duke street.

But we are happy to find that an amicable arrangeâ€" meat was made between the Corporation and the Company, by which the maintenâ€" ance of the streets is provided for. The road is a great public convenience and has been run with much regularity throughout the winter, though evidently not toâ€"a proâ€" fit.
