SUPREME COURT.
IN BAJNCO. (Before His Honor Mr Justioo Gillios.) YESTERD AY—(Concluded. ) THE APPEAL CASE. MEW GOLDEN PAII V. UNION BKACII, Mr Hosketh for tho appellants, Mr Tyler for the respondents. EA portion of the arguments in this case appeared in our last odltion. Tho questions to bo considered were: (1) Whether the land was granted to the Union Beach Gold Mining Company, under license 142, taken out under the Mining Districts Act;; (2) Whether the land was sufficiently identiiied ; and (3) whether tho fac that there was no angle-poa: put in by one of the agents of the Union Beach alfected tho license. After hearing the arguments of couneel on both sides, Hia Honor held that tho plan must be the guide in such cases, otherwise it would lead to great incouvenience. It would tend to prevent other Ipersona from taking up ground which might be open. It was impossible to go behind the license. It must be assumed that every thing that was done, was in accordance with law, or the license could not have been obtained. Tho description of the ground given in the margin of the license must bo accepted as the true description. After some further remarks, His Honor dismissed the appeal with costs. „______——
