Mr. Petoretkrff sod Mr. Banes were counsel for the plaintiff; Kr. Hawkins sad Mr. Prentle appeared (or the defendant. The eiraumatacces ruder which this action was brought were roseentat peculiar.

In the year 1861 be had become desirous of taking poetise don of the Bias Poets public -house in the Heymarket, and all the arrangements were a .nit le , ed, and on the Slat of August he wee to have re , saion non paying a sum of 1,6001, aid If he failed to complete the bar /pin he would have inured the loss of a very exteidersble cum that had been paid as deposit. Under then cirsumstanen, it appeared that be at plied to the plaintiff, who Is a solicitor in Chewers-lane, for an advance of money upon his wif 'a property, and it was alleged that he, well knowing the nature of the property, and having been originally segued is aims li iguana eonnectad with it, and having neeseded in reioverii.g it for the lady, con nected to advance the required sum op rn mortgage. Shortly before the day appointed for the payment of toe money to enable the defendant's son to take pogo eon of the public kerne, according to the cage for the defendant, the plaintiff represented that he had not had time to look into the title to prepare the deeds for the mortgage, but he said he was ready to advance the mmey if • bond were given bins as security uniil the mortgage was com pleted, and upon this the bond in question was drawn op and executed by the defendant, his eon, and Mr. George Wakelieg, a highly•teinetable auctioneer at Chelmsford, who was sequaintrd with the family. It' appeared that two or three months afterward, a regular mortgage deed was ezecuted, but the plaint ff never gave up the bond, and he brought the present action to recover' from the defendant, who was one of the partite who bad executed it, the amount that to had advanced. Thema", acceriicg to the torus of the pleading', being limn the defendant, Mr. Hawkins addressed the jury, and stated the above fade. He 'hen called the defendant, his son, and Mr. Wakebog, at witnesses, and they all swore most &Mined, that when the deed vat eseented the plain tiff espreesly stated Oat the bond was merely a tem porary 'enmity un•il the mortgage was regularly executed. The deed itself was quits in the ordinary form, and made en mention of any such condition, but, on the coatrary, exprrsly declared that it was given as a toll• I meant; in addition to the moetg•g•.

It tray spired in the mono of the case that the eon of the defendant subsequently because ►askrupt, and that the plaintiff took posseasiom of hie property nadir the mortgage deed, and was of the present tme in the receipt of the lea'.. It also appeared that there hal barn a good mane legal proceed. ' imp between the parties, and that one of Mr. Smith's bills for coat smoneted t'• 6001. Mr. Pet r•rl rff hsetog intimated that it was not his in tendon to call witne.a.s, Mr. Hawkins, in summing up his cue, made tome very severe remarks upon the conduct of the plaintiff in the transaction, and he said be was astonished, altar the evident* that his witnemea had given, that no evidence wee adduced on the part of the plaintiff; end he urged that it was clear that he was aware th t he could not answer their tottUony, and that the attempt tart was row being made to enforce the bond was nothing but • sesad.lous fraud. Mr. Petendorff then addreued ih* jury la the plaiatiff He said that it we. entirely upon his reepouibility ihst the course of not oiling niturae. bar been liken, end the ground for his adopting it was that he really considered the defendant had made out no ca.. at all that required as answer. The deed w.s proved to have bee, esecuted fa • legal sod peeper manner, and it extressly stated that it was given is addition to •be mortgage cent', and all the parties umeerned must or ought to have bean aware of the Get.

Mr. Baron Alders.., la summing up, said that by the alteration that bad ou made in the law they wire now really is the present nit sitting as • court of equity, without basing any of the uwers pi:owned by a court of that descriptioa. If this eau iirm submitted to • must of equity, the first thing they would do would be to see what amount of money wee really dee to Mr. Smith, and that would be paid Ant out of the personal estate; and if that were found sufficient to satisfy the claim the bead would at arse be unlined to be delivered up This wart had no such power; bat, as toe art of pediment said they must deal with the case, they must do at as well se they could .

Yesterday morning a preliminary meeting was held at the T•wa-ball, Manchester, convened by the Mayor, to consider the general question of the establish ment of reformatories, J.Warrs, .14aq., the ma; or, presided, and there were about a dozen magistrates present. The proatedinp were to a great extent in the form of cosset's'. tion on the subject, which lasted upwards of an hour. In the course of this conversation a strong sitatiment seemed to be entertained generally that there was a necessity for something being done, but opinions were expressed that from the acme and magnitude of the evil to be dealt with it could not be grappled with effectually by aay voluntary effort. To b e e fficiently be done it mast done by the state. The provisions of Mr. Addsrley's bill were discussed, as also those of a bill which was said to have been pawed three days before, which ap plies to Scotland only, and it was thought that the very , best resales would follow the extension of the provisions of that act to Ragland. It appeared to be generally agreed also th• t, situated as Mancaester is, it would be very Impolitic for anything like a reformatory to be established for the csty alone, and act embracing B.lfird and the other large neighboiming t,eiros, as to do so would possibly be to attract to the city the degraded parents and p or cbi:dren from those paces, so that tbs re would be an unnatural drain upon the funds. It was tbougt t that the area to be included in any district to be established for the purpose should at least embrace the whole ate. Salford hundred of Lancashire, if it did not, at some points, extend into Cheshire, so as to Include Stockport. Uitimstely, as a sort of preliminary step, the following resolutions were erred to: " That this meeting adtures to the opinion expressed in the re solutioa unanimosaly adopted by the magistratee at • meeting held on the 28th day of February, 1854, that matte tutions intended I it the creation and hens fit of juveniles ought to be established under the authority of parliament, sod to be sups , tied at the public expense; and that it le only under snob a system tnat tfficietcy can be anticipated; and that it is d • ble to urge moan her Mry.sty's Roman meat mid upon parliament the neeenkity t fgt.ing, by s• act to be passed dursag the present session, the same facilities for the erection sad inalotenas ce of much institutions as now eziot tor the erection and maintenance of prison..
