The eviden.e being concluded yesterday, the was submit ed without arg ument, and the Judge has it under consideration.

Th sect on requires that the sha'l (to supply the city with water) lav in the principal and most populous streets, an obligation it is charred with fail'n? to fulfil.

For 'he defence it is argued that the Company fully complied with the section iu question, in laying pipes in the principal and most populous streets of the city at the time the chatter was granted, in and that it is optional with them to extend their pi beyond the limits of the then city oper, or not. This construction would confine ihe obligation of the Company to 'hat portion the city lying between the river and Carondeiet street, in the Second Municipality; Rampart street in the Firs Municipality, and Love street (Rue d'Amour) in the about half the city at the me'cy of the Corporation for water, 'f he public will look with deep inter, est for the decision of Judge Buchanan.

Six days after the purchase he filed a petition in the Court of alleging ihat he had purchased lit ose slaves as under-tutor ot minor children of the insolvent and as an investment nf a portion ot their rights in the succession of the late Jane Wan in, He prayed that a family meeting be convened tor the purrose of taking into consideration the rangy ot adopting and confirming this purchase in behalt ot the minors.

The prayer of the peti on was. that the under-tutor be authorized to give his notes in behalf ot the minois for the slave purchased and lint the sa minors be hound thereby. the 10th January, 1842. a family meeMng was couvened who declared the purchase was for the best interest of the minors and necessary for maintenance and edocation. hey recommended it be accepted arid the unaer.tutor to execute his as praved lor.

On the next da the delitwations of the family meeting were homologated by the Court, and John was authorized to execute notes for ihepnoe of the slaves, in his capacity of under-tutor. On the following dav hefubscribed notes consented to a mortgage to his own without making any menton of these Droceedings All slaves purchased, except one. were then delivered to the father and of the -r-inors. and have remained in his possession since. No pa ot the price has been paid and the plaintiffs now sue thedt fendant, who is one of the heirs of Jane Mirtin, for her share of this indebtedness.

The defendant den es her liability, and pleads the want of consideration. further ailed it 1st. That John Ho'mea bought for his own and benefit, and the slaves became and have remained his piouerty. 2d. That it he had purchased, as under-tutor.

The accounts of the parties were, on the applicat on of the plaintiff, referred to an auditor who discharged his dutiee with great and midea lucid and we 1 considered report The plaintiff opposed it on various grounds, and upon that opposition the judgement appealed from was rendered. The folio grounds, alledged in the position, are insisted upon, on the appeal 1.

We consider this ground well taken.

The circnms ance that conventional interest was charged in the books kept by the defendant, and in the accounts rende ed by im to the a ntiff from Hme to time, can not in partnerships of this kind, be con sidered as proof of such an agreement.
