INJUNCTION AGAINST THE CORPORATION OF LIVERPOOL.
A remarkable case was heard in the Rolls Court this afternoon,—an application, on an information of the Attorney. General, against the Self-elected Corporation of Liverpool, to restrain the Corporation from further proceeding in the mortgaging of the corporate property, by which, next Week, they intended to raise 105,0001. to vest in payment and augmentation of the Church livings under their patronage. This impudent attempt to defeat the provisions of the Municipal Reform Act, will thus be frustrated. His honour granted the peremptory injunction and service of the minutes ; the thets disclosing that the Corporators were losing no time to complete their nefarious attempt to usurp the functions of their successors.
