For the defence it was urged that it being a matter of so oonnt, and the defendant disputing some of the items, he was right in swearing that ho had a defence to the action. It was also preyed that he had not received the n'.tice of trial until a day after it had actually taken place, which ac counted for its being undefended. Several witnemes gave the defendant an ex.:elle:4 character for veracity ; anu the jury, after a guartn of an hour's consultation, returned a verdict of !Vol Guilty. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. NtM Tame.—Before the Chief Justice sad a Common Ju r y . 1 GRUEN r;.BLACK.—AillsTiallNT Or A 1101ifiR.—RIO5T OF • Lnim.—This was an action of troves for the va'ne of • horse. , The defendant pleaded, firstly, not guilty; secondly, not , poinesseil. The plaintiff is a potato salesman in New street. I mews, Doreet-square ; the defendant a gentleman living in , Weymouth-street, Portland-place, and having • farm She at , Il ar lesdon, in liertfirdshire. It appear ed a person of name of Newman hail bought the hurse in question, and put it to graze at the defendant's term. Whilst there Newman, according to his own evidence, which we• partially confirmed by another witness sold it to the plainti ff for 25 gulitriui. On the 20th of list detoher it was brought up by defendant to Newman's stables in New-street mews, to be returned, when defendant demanded three guineas for its agistment. A dis pute anise about the giving of a receipt. and no money was paid. Defendant then claimed either to be paid the money er to retain the horse; but, in the meantime, Newman hail got hold of the horse, and led it into his stable. The defendant then went away, but the same alternoon the horse was seized and taken possession of by him at a neighbouring black smith's shop, where it had been taken by the plaintiff in this action to be shod. Within is fortnight of this occurrence de fendant, after first giving notice to Newman, sent the horse to Ahlridge's w oul d in St. Martin's-lane, and there d it sold for what it fetch. It was contended for du fcs dant that the evidence of Newman, who was wanly cross examined, and in part contradicted by witnesses for the de fence, as to the scene on the bringing back of the horse, was not to be relied upon with reference to the alleged sale of the hone by him to the plaintiff. If it was a mere manoiuvre, in order to enable Newman to appear as a witness in the cause, then the defendant was entitled to the verdict.—The Judge said it was a common notion to suppose that an seater had a lien upon a horse let with him, and that having a lien he had a right to sell ; but neither of those propositions was true. The defendant hail, therefore, wrongfully converted the horse. Ile would, however, leave it to the Jury to say whether there was a real bond fide sale of the horse to plain ;WI —Verdict for defendant. Leave reserved for plaintiff t to move to toter a verdict for 161. damagee, vehh.li the jury specially found to have be en the value of the horse , in case the court should be of op inion that the defendant, who was an admitted wrung doer, was not in a position to dispute the - plaintiff's title.—This was the last day of the sittings at COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Before Mr. Comrouvoner Goulburn. CH Artois Or RECILLtuIt TRADINU.—T. Fardell, of Pop lar, onrdbus proprietor, applied for his certificate.

Ilia balance sheet, extending over three years prior to e January last, showed debts to the amount of 1.1:s11., and only about 701. of &sects —barely sufficient, the Commissioner observed, to pay the expenses of the fiat. His trade reprints, in the three years, hod been 3,5761.; house expenses, 1,0501. ; per sonal ditto, 462/.; total, s,oool.—The Commissioner said this was a case of very improp. r conduct on the part of the bankrupt as • trader; but as the creditors were favourably &spied towards him, the yudgeneet would be as lenient as was con-ivent with his (the Commissioner's") duty to the public. lle should suspend the certificate fur six months.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Nis Pairs—Before Mr. Jumt,e Eric and a Common Jury. Simrsuee e. ItontxsON.—SLANUEL—This was nu action to obtain compensation in dameges for the injury which the plaintiff had sustained, from the use of slanderous t Riser e sions against him by the elect:dant. The plaintiff was the nperintendent of fire-engines at Ilsdleigh,inSuffffilk, basing been appointed to the office by a pariah vestry in Ift3t), at a salar of 121. per annum ; 7, we and he continued to fill it down to th y e month of July, 181 en lie was discharged, in con nquence of n statement mein by a Mr. Angell at a meeting of the vestry, that the prosecutor (who was then in prison, at the suit of the deft iffiseet) had received various rums of money from the fire.i his which be had not accounted foe, and that he (Atinell) hail seen rec. ipts for 5801. ; he therefore con sidered him an improper termi to fill the office, and thought he ought to have been disinUse , l months before. He then turned to the defencl4nt, and r.-iced him if the shot m , M a were not true, to when the de!. :Went replied, "They arc perfectly true." Several of the prosecutor's friends attended the vestry, In; the purpose of supporting his claim to be re appointed, but after this statement they felt that they could not vote for him ; and a Mr. Sealy (defendant's clerk) having proposed, and Mr. Ansell seconded, • resolution for his die missal, a person of the name of Cuny Nal ap pointed in his stead. It appeared that there hod been a misunderstanding between the prosecutor and the dte fendant as to a sum of 201., which the defendant bad received from an insurance office for the prosecutor, and which he alleged to hays paid over to him ; but this was denied, and 'tome ill feeling had existed between the parties in conse quence. The only question f.a the consideration of the jury wits, whether the defewlent was actuated by malicious motives in declaring the statement of Mr. Arisen to be true. —Mr. O'Malley addressed the jury for the defendant at con siderable h ngth, urging that he v erdi ct actuated by a REIM of public duty. The jury found a forte Damages, 401. Tits QUEEN ON TIM PROSECUTION OF STROUD e. Batoneos.—PEUJUßT.—This was an indictment for per jury.—Mr. Ferjeant Sheu, with whom was Mr. Hawkins, conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Charnock appeared for the defendant. It appeared that the prosecutor was a brick maker at Stoke Newington, and the defendant a builder and innkeeper at the same plive. In the course of some transactions together, the defendant became indebted to the prosecutor, as the latter all Red, in the sum of 801. On. Gil., for bricks, and after bringing an action against him fr the amount, which was undefended, he made an affidavit at tits Bankruptcy Court that the defendant was indebted to him is the amount named ; in reply to which the defendant else made an affidavit that he verily believed he bad a good defence to the demand, by which affidavit it was alleged he bad been guilty of the crime of pi rjury. Witnesses were caned to prove the amount to be due from the defendant ; to answer the charge of abduction, Out in addition to that charge a very lung indictment had also been pref.-fled against the defendant, charging o f with ether offences, the nature of which he really could not understand , and he put in an affidavit of the attorney for the defendant, in which he st a led that it would he utterly impossible to prepare *defence to the second charge at the prevent seasion.—Mr. Clorkeort, tor the prosecution, opposed the application. He said the defendant was charged with the abduction of a young girl 1.5 years of age ; and eltliongh smother indictment had certainly been preferred, it arose out of the same transaction, and in volved the cams facts, the defendant being charged with perjury in making a false statement before the eurrierde at Ductore•coninionr, in order to obtain the marriage license. The father of the young lady was a clergyman, ai.d lie and all the family were in the Reinhard ilistrflo on account of this occurrence, and this would be increased if the matter were kept standing over.

On the 214 of Month last the troop was lying at the Albany hornet km, and the proaceuter received 651. to ply the men, which he placed in a boa in hie room, adjoining the one occupied by the prig-met.. u r egeee the '2lst and the 22,1 the bus was broken mien, and all the coin it contained, 'l2l. in Rohl and silver, taken. The re mainder of the bee was in notes, which were plu., d be tween the leaves of an old dictionary, and ro enc.ipetl the ob servation of the thief. It was pmviel w *ib:e'er that a few days prior to the rabbi ry the prisoner bought two keys, in one of which he was seen to tile wank. Just he furs the robbery he was r non of money, and borrowed halt a sovereign of the landlady of the Crown and Anchor, Al. bony-street, but directly after he went to Windsor and paid several bills he hail incurred whilst the regiment was king there; and it appeared he paid them in precisely the some kind of Coin as hail been slob% from the boa. He also repaid the half sovereign he borrowed ; and when he wit , asked by a police inspector what moneys he had been lately p ,ying away, he said he hail paid away none whatever, excepting the half see treign, sod on being told about the paymenui at Windsor hP a, counted for the falsehood by saying that he did not wish his debts to be a matter of notoriety in the regiment. It up palmed that another pewit had a key of the pees" utin 's room, and it could not be stated where this key was about the time of the rubbery, and it was stated that the prisoner was in the habit of receiving silver coin at the barrank eau teen, and had changed a 51. cheque there .time short period before.—Mr. Clarkson 1110103 an able defence on behalf of the prisoner, contending that there was no conclusive evi dence against his client.—The Recorder having sum med u p , the jury @equ another chine 1 the prisoner.— Ile was being then removed Inuit Neweate, c h arge against Lim postponed till WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT.

Chapman and Co. wine merchants, against Mr. Cobbeit, chairman of the bo ard of guardians fur the pariA of Saint Martin-in-the-Fields, to recover the sum of 2.1. fur wine supplied to the Western Literary and Scientific Institution, in Leicester. square.—The defendant, it appeared, was one of sixteen gentlemen forming the com mittee of management of the institution, when, in conse quence of a falling off in the amount of subscriptions, it was agreed to wind up the aff.,irs, and break up the inatitution. On this being done the creditors were called together, and a composition of 7.. in the pound wu offered and accepted by the general body, the plaintiff, however, refusing to join in it. It was now sought to recover the whole amount from the defendant.—Mr. Cobbett said he was willing to pay the plaintiff the some amount as had been paid to other plaintiffs, but not more, as the committee of management did not derive any profit from the institution.—The learned Judge said if the plaintiffs were in a condition to 'how that there had been gross mismanagement of the funds, so as to prevent the creditors receiving more than 7s. in the pound, there would be some ground fur seeking to make the defend. ant liable fur the whole debt.—The plaintiffs' solicitor said they could not An that —The Judge said he would withhold giving judgment then, if the plaintiffs wished ; but his opinion was that the defendant could not be made liable for more than he admitted (and which wee not denied by the plaintid.) bad been i aid to other parties, viz., 7s. in the pound, which was all that the proceeds of the sale of the inati tution enabled the committee of management to offer.—An order was made upon the defendant to pay the debt at the rate of 7 in the pound, which amounted, in the aggregate to about 18s. COMMUSION OF ESTItEAT. Yisteiclay • Crown Commisdon was opened before her Majesty's Commissioners of Estreat, Messrs. Waddington, Pollock, and Mettle, at the Court-house of the Sheriff of Mididesex, to ascertain what property Thomas Kane, late of Brentferd, was possessed of at his decease, he having died in testate, and without any heirs or legal claimants to his pro petty. It appeared from the facts dieclused that the deceased came up to London about fifty years ago, a poor, destitute, and waaderinz toy, and having taken to the business of a tailor, he had, by perseverance and industry, acquired a comfortable independence, beingpossemed at hiscluthof free hold property which !nom lit bun in 1841. a year. Inspector Rawlins said,:tha , on demon Ws death, in 1846, he tooklans. session of his re,iitetice, and made • very diligent search for a will, but none could he find ; but lie hound • number of deeds, such es least., relative to deceased's property at Brentford, which he now produced.-1 he deceased's domestic servant way CA14 , 1, and from hi r nee it appeared that deccisted had often lamented that he was alone in the world, and hail not a single relative to whom he could leave his pro pert) , his last relative, a brother, a purser in the royal navy, having died eight or nine years ago. Dr. Nicholls, of Bitting. proved that deceased had told him that he had no whits , it in the world. A draft of a will, in deceased's handwriting, was put in, but ►s it was not attested the com missioners rejected it as inadmissible. By that it was clear the deceased intended to leave his property to some charitable institutions.—Mr. Maule, solicitor to the Treasury, proved having taken nut letters ot administration on behelf of the crown, which bad stepped in to secure the property from p. rsons who had bo It gal claim upon it ; and Mr. Wadding ton explained to the jury, that if hi retake no legal claim should be iaid to the property, it would be applied to pur poses by which the public would reap advantages. It was shown in evidence that the tenants on deceased's prop_•rty wire in arrear to the extent of 3321.55. 3d. The jury touid a verdict for the crown, to the effect, that at his death de ceased win worth Ib4l. a )tar in freehold property, and that hi, tenants were in arrear 3321. 5.. 3d.

The learned counsel attributed his client's c - induct to a and foolish desire to possess a nateh more as a bauble than as an article of value, and contended that an exprelaion used by the boy when accusiil rit the theft, that lie intend. have returned end made a bargain fur it after be had shoed it to a friend" was explanetury of the whole affair—Sir Gordon Bremer was tole il, end he epoke in the high. st terms of the prisoner and his family.

'the portmanteau was stolen, and all trace of it was lost, until some portions of the property were found by Mr. Collard, superintendent of the Great Western Railway, in searching the prisoner's lodgings, in Portman-market, where an enormous amount of property stolen from railway parr/veers was also discuverd. The prisoner Williams, it appeared, was in the habit of pewonve and otherwise ilispi.sieg of the property, hut she sail she did so at the request of Ahloott, who paid hi r fir her trunlile, and she being poor was glad enough to earn a trifle in that manner. She protested that she knew not that the pro perty was stolen, but after hearing the evidencedhe jury found boas of them Guilty, hut recommended Williams to mercy.—Hr. Commissioner Bullisck sentenced Abbott to he transported for 14 years, and Williams to be kept to hard labour for 12 celerities months. SINOVLAK Rummer —Thomas Smith was indicted for larceny, under the fallowing singular circumstances. Upon admission into flor,emonger-lane Gaol, after sentence, eae't prisoner amines the prison dress, and leaves his own clothes with an officer, sell) Wiles them with the owner's name. The prisoner was committed, and on his leaviaz the prisms after his term had expired, he said his name wan John Smith—knowing that a prisoner of that name had lift a very superior suit of clothes at the lodge; and by that means ho got John Smith's clothes, leaving instead his own tattered rags. However, es the prisoner was leaving the gaol, John Smith's wife encountered him, and at once recognised her husband's clothes; but the prisoner said they were given to him by the officer, and he should keep them. lie persisted in that, and was given into custody. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to one month's hard labour. tbi.361..v) iillllllllll. 41 Proprfature Rant . - . Publia lirgralto kachey., M.

At the opening of business Conrad!, were quoted at 8-1 to t, as they closed yesterday. But tame rather considerable put chaaes of money stock soon after wards gave an impulse to prices, which ascended to 811, with apparently a strong market. Subsequently, however, from the unfavourable reading of continental accounts generally, in the second edition of the Daily News and other papers, and probably from the oessa tion of purchases, Consols gradually declined until, on leaving off, they were quoted only 834 to 4 for money and account. Speculations were various about the causes of these fluctuations and di scent of prices, but in the actual unsettled state of political affairs all over the continent, with the certainty that any general return to tranquillity can only be the work of time, it is not difficult to perceive that all credit values must continue to by affected and agitated in a greater or less degree according to the events of the day.

There is nothing in these returns to call for particular obser vation. The increase in coin and bullion will he understood from the importations from Russia and the United States. It is more than probatie also that the gold which has been drained out by the Irish savings banks was beginning then to return to the Bank. The public deposits began to show a more respectubh• figure, and nut too early, for divi dend time was nearing. For the decrease in private or " other " deposits there is generally the consola tion, which it may be hoped was peculiarly the caw in this instance, that money was more in demand for business pnrposcs, arising from the greater activity of trade and movement of industry. It is known that such has been the case gradually for some time peat, both in the produce markets and the minufacturing districts. Now that credit is so limited, transactions will be carried on more by cash than by bills of exchange, and otherwise the Bank rate of discount being higher by t per cent. than the common rule among banking and discount houses for good bills, it is clear that the larger share of discount business must fall to the latter. e N kit—ME—Ai .

The cireumstances of the case were of rather a singular character. The young lady, who wait at the time not twenty years old, and who is en titled to property amounting to twelve hundred a year, was staying with her relations at Tring, and after the defendant had been aerie anted with her about three months, she con• sented to run away with him, and thy came to London ad were married ; but when the ceremony was performed the defendant made false representations with regard to the ago of the lady, and also as to her residence. lie was subsequently indicted for the offence above mention , d, and the jury returned a verdict of guilty ; but upon oliji.eiions that were taken by his counsel, Sir F. Thesiger, judgment was respited, in order that the judges might take the objections into consideration.—Mr. ust', e Coltman now delivered the judgment of the court ; and after referring to the objections raised by the defendant's counsel, maid that the judges were of opinion they could not be sus tained, and that the conviction was right. lie had, there fore, only to pronounce the seutence agreed noon by the learned Judges who tried him, which was that he be impri oohed and kept to h ird labour for 64 calendar monthe—The defendant, who appeared very much surprised at the sen tenes, bowed 0, the court and then retired from the bar.
