EQUITY COURTS. Before the Lord Cluaorthar. WARR O. OT A SS , AVEST OT PERSONALTT TO TESTATOR'S seras-♦T-LAW. —This was an appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancel lor of England upon the construction of a clause in the will of Philip Slater, dated in 1808, by which he directed his executors to purchase with his estate so much of 31. per cent, stock as would produce an annuity of 600/. for his wife for her life ; and after her death he directed the survivors of the executors to pay t►e said annuity to his daughter for her life for her separate use; and after her death to pay and dis tribute the principal trust monies among her children ; but if after death there should be no children or child, of if he, she, or they should die under the age of 24 years, then he directed his trustees to sell out the trust fund, and pay cer tain legacies to persons named if they should be then living ; and all the rest and residue of the said principal monies he gave and bequeathed to and among his heirs-at-law, share and share alke. The testator's daughter, having survived his widow, died without leaving any child, whereupon a bill was filed for the purpose of obtaining the opinion of the court on the question as to whom the principal moaies belonged. The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the testator's daughter was the person designated by the words " his heirs-at-law," and that her personal representative was entitled to the monies. The appeal against that decision was opened last Saturday by Mr. Humphrey, Mr. Bates representing par ties claiming; the: monies as next of kin of the testator at the death of his daughter.—Mr. Relt and other counsel were heard on behalf of parties claiming as heirs-at-law of the testator at the death of his daughter,—Mr. Cooper, Mr. Ware, Mr. Baralgette, Mr. Younge, Mr. Glasse, and other counsel, appeared for other parties claiming as next of kin of the testator at his own death.—Mr. Bothell and Mr. Hetherington were beard now in support of the Vice- Chancellor's decree.—Mr. Humphrey replied.—Judgment postponed. Deese Vice. Chancellor Relight Brace. EN PASTA SPOONER, RE PATNA. JURISDICTION OVER PENSION OP INSOLVENT RZTIRID BANKRUPTCY COMMISSION RR.—This was a petition presented to the Vice- Chancellor, sitting in bankruptcy, by the assignee appointed by the Insolvent Debtors' Court, in the insolvency of a re tired country commissioner of bankruptcy. The insolvent had been commissioner at Bristol, and, under the provision of 6 & 6 Vict., c. 172 (superseding the appointments of the country commissioners), was entitled to compensation, which had been fixed by the treasury at 1991. per annum. An order had been made by the Lord Chancellor for the_ pay ment of this annual sum by the Accountant-General in Bank ruptcy. In July last, the usual vesting order had been made by the Insolvent Debtors' Court, and, in August, the petitioner was appointed assignee by that court. The prayer of the present petition was, that the compensation might be paid to the petitioner, as assignee of the insolvent. —Mr. Bacon and Mr. W. R. Ellis, in support of the peti tion, submitted, that, as the compensation fund was in the hands of the Accountant-General in Bankruptcy, his Honour had jurisdiction over it ; and they referred to a late case of Es parte Cantr, in re Cox," where a retired country com miuioner had become bankrupt, and the Court of Review had made an order for payment of his retiring pension to his as signee.—Mr. Wright, who appeared for the insolvent, con tended that his Honour had no jurisdiction, this being ammo( insolvency, and notof bankruptcy.—The',ViceChancellor said that the Court of Review had undoubtedly jurisdiction over the Accountant-General in Bankruptcy for many purposes and in many cases, but the question was, whether that court would have exercised its jurisdiction in such • case and for such a purpose as this ? His Honour thought not, and that, as he had only the same authority as the late Court of Reriew had, he could not accede to the petition.—Mr. Wright asked for costs, but the Vice-Chancellor declined making any order. Wore irlee-Cbserseloe JONES V. THE SOUTH WESTENN WI AMWAY COMPANY. INJUNCTION.—His Honour deliveredjudgment in this case, the facts of which were mentioned in our nu pension of Friday last. His Honour said the plaintiff was the occupier of a public-house, at the back of which was a yard, forming part of the cartilage and from which the only exit was through the house. At the further end of the yard was a building essential to the enjoyment of the premises. The defendants had given notice, under the powen of their act, that they intended to carry a viaduct over the yard, by means of an arch which would pus between the outbuildings end the house. The arch was to be at a considerable elevation above the ground, and was to approach within seven feet of the windows of the house. The plaintiff did not deny the right of the company to build the viaduct in question ; but objected that it scald not be carried over his cartilage, unless the whole of the premises were purchased. The car tilage, he contended, was part of the house within the messing of Clause 92 of the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act, by which clause it is enacted that no party is to be required to sell or convey " part only of a house, building, or menufactory," for railway purposes, but that the railway company, if irtook a part, should be compelled to take the whole. The defendants, on the other hand, contended that they were not bound to take the whole of the plaintiff's house, bat only so much of the cartilage as they required; and they claimed to have that question tried at law, upon an admission by them that the yard was within thi cartilage. The question of construction would, of course, his Honour observed, have to be tried at law, and the only point, therefore, left for him to consider was, how the case was to be dealt with till the trial. The plaintiff objected that the erection of the viaduct would obstruct the sir and light, that the jarring of the trains would injure the liquors, and that the result would be generally detrimental to his trade; and he claimed therefore either to be protected by an interim injunction, or to be paid for the whole house, so as to be enabled to establish a trade elsewhere. Upon the point of damage, his Honour observed, evidence was unnecessary, for he had satisfied his mind upon that question by a simple inspection of the plans and model which had been produced. The only suggestion, on the other band, made by the defendants against the injunction was the delay which it would occa sion in the progress of their works. They had not put their ease upon delay in opening the railway, nor had they shown that any material inconvenience would arise if the construe lion of the arch were postponed till the question had been decided. His Honour then directed a case to be taken to a court of law, the terms of which, in the event of the parties differing, were to be settled by the master ; and that until the trial of the cue the plaintiff's right should be protected by injunction. The defendants, however, were to have liberty to apply to dissolve the in junction in case it should delay the opening of the railway, or be attended with any other matend inconvenience. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, BUSINESS OF THE COURT.—The court will Sit in banco, after term, on the 27th of November, the 2nd and 4th of December, the 6th of December and the four following days, and on the 11th of December, at twelve o'clock, to give judgments. _ _ WOOD C. THE EARL OF PORTARLINGTON.—IN THE MATTER OP CHARLES MACET.—ERFCSAL TO RESCIND A' SOLE FOR STRIKING AN ATTORNEY OFF THE ROLM— This was an application for • rule to show cause why a rule of this court for striking off the roll of attorneys the name of Mr. Macey should not be rescinded. The rule which it was sought to rescind had been granted on the ground that Mr. Macey, who was the attorney for the defen dant, had, immediately before the trial, put into the hand of a person whom be knew to be a witness for the plaintiff a paper suggesting that that person could give certain testi mony establishing the essential part of the defence, on which paper there were written in pencil, and by Mr. Macey, the words 0 Query, SI, ?" The court, on consideration of the affidavits, and the emission to show that Mr. Macey had any other reason than his own possible impression of its truth for suggesting to the witness the particular testimony set forth in the paper above-mentioned, had made the rule absolute. The present application was supported by an affidavit of Mr. Pyne, at where instance Mr. Macey had been employed as attorney for the defendant, which stated that he had given information to Mr. Macey of the facts suggested in the paper, and that they were true. A great number of gentlemen who had had proferdonal dealings with Mr. Macey also stated their belief that he was Incapable of bribing a witness to Five false testimony. The wart had taken time to consider iu judgment—Lord Deanna now said that the members of the court bad each wed the affidavits filed in support of the preeeat appli media, mad also those which had been used when the rule was node absolute. It appeared that Mr. Fyne, who had beau aletekin with walrus, had been on the former occa sion maw bawl to bring before the court his recollec tions/00m in question. He was aowable to do so, mai me pm he justified in doing so, but it was a s iVir Mlle to offer to the emit materials for Ahi s. f it had ea been preaosaell oa a I Bet the wart was hemmed to sub ject ehhalleepaille Abed ee rigeeene cramelnatiea all es le Sh amirape s a i la, fa earn judgment had brat el the party pelmel S u larrha entreal late a ecamamentsay ea the ea Iserimaa and dahlia* tha pmlly ciamiumine Beat the naiad et the dogma ishodest and that of Mr. Pyne had not been consistent with the state of facts set up in lir. Pyne 's affidavit, and that Mr. Maoey's conduct had not been consistent with a knowledge of such facts, if they had ever existed. The court, therefore, was of opinion that, if Mr. Pyne bad become convinced that the facts stated in his affidavit had taken place, he was in error. With regard to the affidavit of several most respect able persons, stating their belief that Mr. Macey was inca pable of bribing a w itness, the same persons would, doubt less, have sworn that, in their belief, Mr. Macey was incapable of writing the paper which he himself admitted OW be had written. Those persons might employ him in a ealserdinate capacity if they felt that they could put con. Mims* in him ; but the court could not any longer suffer blgs. under its authority, to belong to a body of honourable 0111.0/1 Mid him out to the world as one, in its judgment, lb to be trested. It appeared that the name of Mr. Mace y bid not as yet been struck off the roll. That ought to have beet done. Indeed, the court ought to see it done, by laving the roll brought into court and the name erased in its presence ; and it expected that this would be done in the course of to-morrow.—Application refused. ETANS e. LAWSON.—THE N ELSON SWORD.—TII4 was an I action for an alleged libel published in the Times news paper, in the form of a letter from Sir Harris Nicolas, to the editor of that paper, which impeached the genuineness of a sword sold by the plaintiff to Lord Saye and Sele, as that worn by Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar ; and of a letter on the same subject, stated to have been written by a lady named Smith. A verdict passed for the defendant; and subsequently an application was made for a new trial, on the grounds of misdirection and of the verdict being against the evidence. The court took time to consider its judgment.— ' Lord Denman now said that he bad left it to the jury to say whether that portion of the letter which related to the sale of the sword to Lord Says and Sele bad imputed misconduct to the plaintiff ; it appeared to him that it had not, and the jury had in fact found a verdict which expressed that opi nion. With regard to the letter attributed to Mrs. Smith, there was no inuendo in the declaration that made it proper to inquire whether that portion of the letter imputed mis conduct to the plaintiff. That being so the direction and verdict were right, and the defendant entitled to keep the verdict.—Application refused. Connery v. HUDSON.—ErIDENCE IN SUPPORT OF AN ACTION POE A FALSE RETVIDe TO A WRIT or HAISISAI Court:lc—Lord Denman gave judgment en this case, in which the plaintiff in person had moved to set aside a non suit, and fur a new trial. The action was for a false return to a writ of habeas corpus, and the ground of nonsutt was that the tiff had failed to show affirmatively that the re turn w false. In support of the motion it bad been con tended t the defendant ought to have shown affirmatively that his return was true, and it was suggested that if the plaintiff had known the turthen of proof to be on himself, he would have produced, and could at another trial produce, evidence to establish the issue. The court was of opinion that the application must be refused, on the ground that the nonsuit was right, and is accordance with decided cases. — Rule refused. The plaintiff then applied for a fresh writ of habeas corpus, which was at once refused, on the ground that it would be entirely useless, the points on which the septic*. tion was founded having been already repeatedly decided against Mr. Cobbett. THE QUEEN V. REUBEN HUNT AND OTHERS.--COlfs SPIRACY.—Mr. Chambers, Q.C., prayed the judgment of . the court on the defendants Reuben Runt, William Hunt, Charlotte Hunt, and Harriet Hunt, who had been convicted on an indictment for a conspiracy to cheat and defraud the prosecutor by means of a false and unlawful claim. The claim in questioa had been referred to a legal arbitrator, and the indictment alleged that the defendants had falsely claimed two bills of exchange as indorsed to them, and two lOU's made in their favour. The case had been removed from the Central Criminal Court, and after the trial a rule nisi in arrest of judgment had been granted, and was afterwards discharged. .% olutninous affidavits having been read, Mr. Justice Coleridge sentenced the prisoners to be imprisoned and kept to bard labour in Coldbath-fields prison, the two males for the spree of twelve calendar months each, and the two females for the space of six calendar months each. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Sittings la Banco. _ . The court eat to-dayio hein 7 registration appeals. IstPORT•111 DECISION.—Tome V. LUCKETT.—This wee an appeal from the decision of the revising banister for the city of London, who had expunged the name of Toms fret the list of voters, on the ground that he had not a sediffiell occupation as tenant to entitle him to vote. It appered from the ease that Toms occupied apartments in a louse when the landlord also occupied a shop and parlour. The landlord did not sleep on the premises, and both the appel lant and the landlord had a key of the outer door. — Crompton appeared for the appellant; Mr. (hove for the re wsident.—Lord ChiefJustioe Wilde said, that it appeared that the ground upon which the revising barrister had decided against the sufficiency of the claim to vote was, that the appal lant had not the exclusive control of the outer door. The court however, thought that this was no objection to the claim, end that the want of an exclusive control of the outer door had no real homing upon the question of the right to vote. It was necessary that the party in this case should be a te nant at en annual rent, and that being found as a fact in the case, the court would have inferred that this munition was enhance, even if that feet bad net been distinctly stated by the case itself. There was nothing to show that that exclusive occupation was limited or abridged. The landlord did net reside on the premises, but merely occupied two rooms in the house, and the court could not see upon what principal the feet of a party's not having the exclusive con , trot of the outer door was to destroy his right to vote as a tenant. The qualification of the tenant being in other re ' 'peen perfect, the mere retention of a key by the landlord did nut limit the tenant's interest, or effect the exclusive character of his occupation. The court thought, therefore, that the decision must be reversed. Dowlrmo v. Luceirrr.—This also was an appeal from the decision of the revising-barrister of the city of London. The material facts were nearly the some as in the preced ing case, the main distinction being, that a clerk to the landlord resided on the premises is protect the premises themselves and accommodate the persons who occupied, and that he alone had a key of the outer gate. The premises were situated at No. 11, Mark-lane, and the appellant occu pied a counting - house therein, as did also the landlord of the premises and five other persons.—Mr. Crompton ap peared for the appellant, and Mr. Grove for the respondent. —The court said, that in this caw they entertained no doubt at all about the question. The counting-horse ',- copied by the appellant was • qualification which 111111111111 within the express words of the lteform Act, and the ease resembled that of chambers in the Albany, or shops in the Burlington Arcade, where there was a gate or other coin mon entrance at the end. Tke decision of the revising bar rister, must, therefore, be reversed. BIRCH 21. EDWARDS.—III this appeal from the deci sion of the revising-barrister of the county of Monmouth, the question raised for the opinion of the court was, whether a notice of objection was good when served under the following circumstances: It appeared that the objector took a notice of objection to the post office at Pontypool, with the address of the party to whom the notice of objection wee directed on the face and at the top of the document as well as oa the back of it. This notice was delivered to the postmaster, who also stamped, as required by the act 6th of Victoria, e. 18, an alleged dupli cate notice, which, when produced before the revising-bar rister, was found to be without the address of the petty ob jected to on the back of the document. The revising-barris ter, therefore, decided that the notices were not duplicates, and that the service was insufficient—Mr. Keating argued the ease on the part of the appellant, and Mr. Serpi= Byles on behalf of the respondent.—The court thought the conclusion to which the revising-barrister had arrived was perfectly correct, and affirmed his decision, with costs. WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT. Before D. C. eeoylan, req., Judge, and a Special All. LOCLaTT v. CAULIIELD.—IB SPORTING DOG a. DOMISTIC AWIWAL —ln this case Mary Lockett, a maiden lady, residing at No. 1, Beaufort-terrace, Chelsea, was plain tiff, and Capt. Gordon Caulfield, nephew of Major-Oeneral Caulfield, residing at 82, Eaton-square, the defendant; the action being brought to recover the sum of IW. 19e., " for damage sustained by the plaintiff by the neglipmes of the defendant, in improperly permitting and soff a sporting dog to go at large, by which her left arm was esus fir the said dog running her and knocking her dawn."—On the 23rd of /art the plahttil4 who is 67 years of age, was hem Weetbeennenerest, Pfsalloo, into Sloane-square, balfiseet mime o'aloek in the 'earning, when she felt a dog rush against hem She fell down, and on being picked up her left arm was found to be broken. The boy who had charge of the dog ran away, but was punned and brought back, when be admitted the dog to be the property of Capt. Caulfield. That gentlemen was applied to, and expressed his regret for the accident, but as he offered no compensation the present proceeding was taken.—The learned Judge, addressing Mr. Scotland, who appeared for the defendant, said much time might be saved if he would disclose the nature of his defence without prejudice.—Mr. Scotland said, if his learned friend proved no more than b e had stated in his opening speech, there would be no ease at all to pto the jury. If they could establish the fact that defendant knew before that this dog was a mischievous animal, then unquestionably there would be a use for the jury.—Mr. Evans, for the prosecution, said the plaint was, "that the defendant improperly permitted a certain Muting dog to go at large ;" ani he should prove without contradiction, he thought, that a sporting dog was not • domestic animal, but en animal of • ferocious and wild na ture, and kept for the express purpose of destroying other animals. It did not come within the case where a dog had been known to be of a mischievous nature, tad consequently necessary for the defendant to be made acquainted with, as it was • dog kept expressly for bunting down and destroying other animals. The judge if you can show the knowledge of the defend ant, that the dog was of a ferocious nature, there will be no necessity to raise the point as to whether a sporting dog is • domestic animal or not.—Capt. Caulfield, in answer to a juror, said tie dog was • " water retriever."—The juror : Then it is not used to clime game. Evidence was then given showing the nature of the accident, sad the expense Mies Lockett had been put to in mediael and other attendance upon her, but no evidence was given of the quality or nature of the dog, or that Capt.

THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1847. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Before Mr. lierjeug Adams. ABSINCI or Couwest..—on the case of two persons named Neale and Brunton, who were indicted upon a charge of assault, being celled on, a gentleman, who said he was an attorney far the defence, addressed Mr. Serjeant Adams, and said that Mr. Ballantine had been re tained for the defence but he was not in attend ance, and it was very hard for his clients to be put upon their trial without their counsel. The brief and fee had been given to Mr. Ballantine weeks and weeks before, and yet his clients were now to be tried without him.—Mr. Ser pent Adams said he could not help that ; attorneys should give their briefs to counsel who would attend.—The attorney said it was not the first time he had been so served, but he should know how to act in future.—Mr. Serjeant Adams said it was too late to talk now—the case must prooeed.—Mr. Payne (who appeared for the prosecution) said his friend, Mr. Mellor, would defend the case in the absence of Mr. Ballantine.—The attorney said this was areal hardship. Mr. Mellor could not be so well acquainted with the facts as the proper counsel, and it was very unfair that counsel should take fees and " refreshers" and then fail to dis charge the duties for which they were paid.— Mr. &testa Adams said he wished the attorney wou d hold his tongue . the court did not know who he was, and could not listen to him. The case most proceed.—Mr. Mellor questioned the witnesses for the defence.—The defendant, in the end were convicted, and liberated on entering into their own recognisances, and paying a fine to the crown of ss. each. RIOT AT THE "SATIRIST' . OPPICE.—W. A. Chit:in, G. Chislin (brothers), and M. Ransil:, surrendered to answer an indictment, charging them with having committed an assault on G. Mills, on the 30th of last September. This case arose out of an affair which took place on the 30th of September, an account of which appeared in our paper. The Ghislins were in occupation of the Satirist office, 334, Strand, and had received notice to quit from Mr. Barnard Gregory, the landlord. They were to have left by Michael mas quarter-day, but, failing to do so, Bernard Gregory em ployed forcible means to eject them. It appeared from the evidence now adduced, that a person named Timm (who was said by one witness to be a carpenter, and editor of the Satirist, which was afterwards denied) went with sa or seven others and ejected the Chisling by force. The Ghisling in turn got a reinforcement, and attacked Gregory's party, whom, alter a sharp con test, they succeeded in routing, and they regained possession. The prosecutor, Mills, was in the employ of Timm, and he swore that he went at ten o'clock at night, on the 30th, to the Satirist office, to ask for his master, when, being recognised by the Ohiiline as one of Timsn's men, they attacked him and beat him with such violence that he was carried into a near public house nearly insensible, and covered with blood. The prosecutor con tradicted himself in most of the material points, and posi tively swore that the defendant, Augustus Gbislin, was Men tal, and rice verul. He said that the morning after the assault the whole affair was investigated before Mr. Jar dine, at Bow-street, when that magistrate refused to grant either a summons ors warrant for either of these defendants, although he told then the same story as now, about his being carried bleeding to a public-house.—Mr. Serjeant Adams could not believe that Mr. Jardine would have acted thus if he had heard this evidence.—Another witness was examined as to the affray, but instead of corroborating the prosecutor, he contradicted him, and added more confusion to the case. At length the patience of the jury was exhausted, and they declared that if there were not other evidence it was a waste of time to proceed. There being no further evidence, the jury found the defendants not guilty at once, and Mr. Serprant Adams said, a more unsatisfactory case had never come before him, and as to the refusal of Mr. Jardine to grant a summons for persons who had murderously assaulted another, as this man alleged he had been, he did not believe a word about it —This was the last case, and the court adjourned till the 23d inst. the previous afternoon, when he saw tho prisoner and an other man knocking at the door of a pablic-house. As it was divine service at the time he requested them to go away, They promised to do so, and complainant proceeded round his beat. When be returned they were still knocking with more violence than before. He told them to go away or he must take them into custody. He was passing on when the prisoner's companion came behind him and struck him a violent blow on the back of his head. They then ran away. He pursued them, and succeeded in taking the prisoner into custody. The other man made his escape. The prisoner, who pleaded drunkenness as the esuse of his committing the offence, was fined 40s. or 21 days' imprisonment. MARYLEBONE.—ROBBERY AT A RAILWAY STATION. —Mr. Long received information that in the morning, between 2 and 3 o'clock, a robbery to the amount of (as it is supposed) from 1,2001. to 1,5001. was committed at the Paddington terminus of the Great Western Railway. Some offices at the railway were broken into, and a large and weighty box carried off; and some drawers were forced open, and cash abstracted. CHARON AOAINST AN INSPECTOIL—Mr. Broughton, on Saturday last, gave his decision one charge against Inspector Hunt, of the D division, who, as alleged, had taken into custody W. 8. Stocking, upon unfounded charges, and caused him to be detained in a station-house for several hours. Some particulars of what previously transpired have already appeared. The magistrate, after fully reviewing ! the evidence, convicted defendant in the penalty of 51- TIIAMES.—MURDEROUB Asset:tr.— William Carey, a tall and powerful man. was brought before Mr. Yardley on remand, charged with assaulting and wounding Elizabeth Greenmay, who came out of the hospital to give evidence. On Tuesday night last she was at the Effingham Saloon, in the Whitechapel-roadond upon the termination of the per formances drank with the prisoner. She was about to de part, when he seized her, and said he would not permit her to leave him. Presently the prisoner struck Greenmay a violent blow on the mouth, and as she was staggering from the effects of the blow, he kicked her on the side. She fell, and while she was lying on the ground he kicked her in u savage manner, and rendered ker completely insensible. On recovering she found herself in a chair in a pastry cook's shop, and bleeding profusely. She was conveyed to the London Hospital immediately afterwards—Mr. Pelham said he was instructed that the prosecutrix had offered to forego the prosecution on the receipt of 205., and he mentioned that, because be could not be a party to the compounding an offence. He then cross-examined the woman, who said she was still a patient in the hospital, and was to return there directly she had given her evidence. The prisoner's wife and landlady offered her a sovereign, which she refused. She would swear that she did not say to them, If you will give me a sovereign I'll not swear against you."—The evidence proved that the woman had received peculiar and serious injuries.—Mr. Yardley handed a certificate he had received from the medical officers of the London Hospital to Mr. Pelham, and said the blows and kicks might have caused more injury than they had done. He committed the pri soner for trial.—Mr. Pelham ; 'Yon will take bail of course ? Mr. Yardley: Yes, good bail ; I am bound to do that. POLICE. Y - ESTERDAY. MANSION-HOUSE.— Rummy or Patitox Expeat axca.—J. Kemp was charged with having attempted to pick the pocket of Mr. John Goldham, jun., clerk of Billingsgate. market.--Mr. Ooldhiun was collecting in Billingsgate, and seeing that the prisoner was pushing up against the market people, judged his intention to be plunder, and walked out of the crowd to set a watch upon him. As be was passing by the prisoner, he felt a tug at his handkerchief, which he had taken are to pin tightly to his pocket, and he immedi ately sided the hand, which was the prisoner's.—The police man eahl the poisoner had been several times convicted.— The Sceir said he had never before been in the presence of a magharate ; and nobody could say that he had stolen handkerchief, for it never for a moment left the pocket of Mr. Ooldhsm.—The Lord Mayor said he should send the prisoner to Bridewell for 2 months.—The prisoner declared that as he hai never been in a City prison in his life, he should have no objection to 3 months is Bridewell. —His lordship, however, declined giving him so much.— The prisoner said that his reason fer applying for the longer term was, that confinement for three months in any of the metropolitan prisons was a respectable sentence, that brought with it a much better dietary than a shorter term. It was much more gentlemanlike , fact. He was a judge; for there was not a prison within . miles and miles in which he had not been, with the exception of the City prisons : and the Secretary of State had, he hoped, made regulations ap plicable to all alike. - • • - - • ALLEOED SWINDLING.—The following lseisr, in niferines to a complaint made in the late mayoralty, relative to swind ling tranasetione in jewellery and watches, ins bra terieed by the Lord Mayor : tees.

Callaghan, a labourer in the docks—The prosecutor stated that at 11 o'closk on the pre ceding night he repaired to a house in George-yard, White chapel, at which a ball took place every Sunday evening, for the purpose of inducing his cousin, who had attended it, to return home to her family. On entering the passage of the house he accidentally stumbled against the prisoner, and was instantly knocked down by her husband, who kicked him in the most savage manner, and trampled upon his body. He was struggling to disengage himself when the prisoner made a rush at him with a table fork, and drove it repeat edly into his head. He was at length rescued by several of the bystanders, and on the arrival of the constable the pri soner wee taken into custody, and the witness removed to the hospital.—A young woman named Anne Weaver stated, that seeing the prisoner and her husband illusing the com plainant, whose faoe was streaming with blood, she entreated them not to murder the man, upon which the prisoner flew at her, and alter tearing off the upper part of her dress stabbed her with some instrument which penetrated her arm. [The witness exhibited her arm, which presented three punctured wounds, evidently produced by the prongs of a fork.] —Mr. Vann, who appeared for the prisoner, said that he should reserve her defence for the present, tad the magistrate ordered her to be remanded for the production of the medical evidence. CLERIEENWELL.— Pt:4lBoB.—Rn= Saxton, residing with her mother at Lamp-office-court, Lamb's-conduit-street, was charged with having purchased a quantity of oxalic acid with intent to destroy hergelf. There was also a charge coa -1 tained in the police-shed against Charles Williams, for having attempted to destroy his life by taking poison. He is in the Royal Free Hospital, Oray'ainn-lane, in a danger ous state, and unable to attend, but he was there in custody of the police until his fate was made known. Sergeant Let ter produced a certificate signed by Mr. Cooke, the surgeon, stating that he was in danger. The female is a servant out of place ; and Williams, who formerly had some horses and cabriolets of his own, was reduced, and his employment was uncertain. For some time past he had paid his addresses to the prisoner, and had promised her marriage ; but their union was postponed, in consequence of their not having work. On Saturday week Williams saw her walking arm in arm with a young man, which excited his jealousy, and he determined to have no more to do with her, and kept her at perfect distance until Saturday n i g ht last , when she called upon him, and endeavoured to cause him to make it up with her, as she meant no harm in walk ing with the young man he had seen her with. He, how ever, refused, and said he would have nothing more to do with her. She said if that was his determination she would go and destroy herself ; and she left him and proceeded to the shop of Mr. Davis, in Acton-place, Bagnigge-wellaroad, and asked for a pennyworth of oxalic acid. Mr. Davis, who knew her as formerly being in the service of a family in the ti h p bourh rop c l od ;e an r : e l d h i t e vi r nz it e h e o rv u rl an h y er with it b o e f fo m re to be wrong, and le left the shop. She returned to her boTtherl house, where she found the young man, Williams, to whom she showed the poison, and said she intended to take it, when he snatched it out of her hand, and chewing paper and all, swallowed the whole of it, about half-gu anine. The prisoner was greatly alarmed, and called for assistance, when he was conveyed to the hospital, labouring under the symptoms of the poison, and in great pain. The stomach-pump was immediately resorted to, and he was put to bed.—Police-constable 128 Q took the prisoner to the station-house.—Mr. Combe asked Sergeant Lester if he had seen Williams /—Sergeant Lester said he had seen him that morning, and his face was swelled dreadfully and he was in great wt.—Mr. Combo asked the prisoner lithe wished to say anything J—She said she would not deny having rn chimed the poison, or what had been stated ; she was very sorry for what had happened.—Mr. Combo : I suppose you would have no objection to marry him now t—Prisoner (dallies) : No, sir.—Mr. Combs ordered the prisoner t o put i n her recc;gnisanceto appear on a future day, when the fate of Williams can be toads known.

The instability of markets and prices was never perhaps exemplified more strongly, if not strangely, than to-day. Upon reports that the French renter came 1 per cent. worse frem Paris, caused by another rumoured attempt on the life of the King, and the formal commencement of the civil war in Switzer- land by an attack upon, and capture of, Friburg, Consols began rapidly to decline, and descended at one time as low as 834 to both for money and time. At the close of business they had recovered only so far as 831 to t. The extent of the fall from the high est opening prices of 844 to 3 to the lowest quotation was 11 per cent; and as between the opening and the close of business 11 per cent So rapid and ex traordinary a rate of depression seemed to point to the occurrence of some sinister events abroad, such as the entrance of an Austrian army of intervention into Switzerland, a conspiracy in Paris, &c. The French funds had fallen to the extent before stated at Tor toni's, where, the Bourse being of course closed, the jobbers congregate on a Sunday. A cause nearer home appeared, on the notification of the suspension of the eminent firm of produce brokers of Messrs. Trueman and Cook of Mincing-lane. Reduced Threes fell to 821 to 1.

Truman and Cook were in the habit of affording them credit with their purchases upon a very liberal scale, by which they were enabled in continuation to avail themselves, by granting the like accommodation to their retail customers. The meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Judah Cohen and Son was held to-day, and a balance-sheet exhibited, bat no copies given out. The liabilities were stated at about 42,000/. ; the. assets were de scribed ;to be of a good description, and equal to the payment of 17s. in the pound nominally, but a suggestion was made that Messrs. Cohen should com promise for a fixed sum. Ten shillings in the pound was the ratio named. Eventually the meeting was adjourned for the examination of accounts, and to de termine the best course to be adopted. It is stated in letters from Liverpool that the estate of Messrs. J. B.

It is undentoa says . the Liverpool A/bion, that an entire change is to be made in the deed of settlement, and also in the mode of the general manage ment ; and we have little doubt that, after the experience which the shareholders have had, the bank, upon an extended and more secure basis, will again enjoy the confidence of all classes ; and, from the state of the accounts, and from other circumstances, that it will speedily become one of the most flourishing concerns in the town. The London agency of the bank will in future be the London Joint Stock Bank. The re-opening of the North and South Wales Bank will also be very shortly announced. The proprietors have in the meantime been summoned to meet oaths Ist December, to take into consideration the present position of ,the bank, and the measures necessary to be taken for the resumption of business. The general feeling towards the bank is of the most gratifying character ; and we are informed, on the best authority, that the depositors almost unanimously have al ready signified their acceptance of the terms proffered by the bank with regard to their deposits. These terms partake of the nature of those adopted by the Royal Bank. The Liverpool Banking Company, we believe, may also be expected shortly toes rume. The capital of the hank remains un touched ; and probably the re-opening of the establishment will be determined upon at the meeting of the proprietors on the 30th. At a special board of directors of the Liverpool Banking Company, held at the bank, Nor. 10, 1847, it was resolved that a tall of 21- pee shin be made upon each of the pro prieton of thin Waft( mapeny, and thug any be wadi to pay the emu alba bank ef the einigiony, is South Caeir street, Liverpool. ea ;or bane Wade/.

" A Mex ican Bondholder," who writes in the Times this week, asks "in what security they (the funds) are invested ?" Messrs. J. S. and Co. must now have more than one hundred thou sand pounds in their hands ; and, whether this sum will pay 4,4, or of a dividend, I should consider it far better in my custody than with others, in these perilous times. I was not aware that Messrs. J. S. and Co. had any authority to invest in any security, discount bills, or to lend the money trans mitted from Mexico, or even to use it, except as it would, pro toot°, pay dividends overdue. The bondholders should have • committee that will are this fulfilled, and prevent its use for jobbing purposes. The first and second dividends overdue are the let. Jan. and Ist July, 1847.—J. W.

The share-market opened rather favourably, with a dis position among dealers to purchase. The great de pression in Consols, however, quite changed the face of affairs, and the prices of most of the lines rapidly declined. French shares became almost unsaleable.

Prom the report of the provisional committee, it appeared that the prospectus of the company was Voted in March lam the Edinburgh and Northern Railway Company agreeing to take 2,304 shares on condition of being allowed to place a certain number of their directors on the provisional committee. The capital of theism. pants was heed at 230,0301.. divided into 12,500 shares, on which the deposit was 21. 2.. 6d. The whole amount of the stock alto:eta amounted to 9,310 shares, and the deposit inoe paid on 8,660, sire of the 2,500 abates reserved for the Edinburgh and Northern Company. The report then proceeded to elate mat a favourable Tof the line having been made by Mr. Grainger, th e iTe l e entered into conscurication with the Edinburgh s e a Northern Company, whostated that they were prepared to enter lane an agreement tor • lease of the line at flee per cent. for the Bret two yew*, and six per cent. after the lapse of that period, or to ppyi gv . mate at par when the bill was obtained, which was meandered by the provisional committee to be a fair and equitable arramm ent . Daring three negotiations, a considerable depression had taken gag in railway stock, and some of the shareholders began to be deem ed that no stem should be taken in proceeding with the undertaking g present.
