only take mental exercise in this fashion? Books, be stis, it is not possible to procure. Is the common English institution of a Lbirary Club, then, so utterly unknown amongst the rich denizens of India? Of wkat use sending bishops to ouch a country? Would not the thousar t ils a year spent upon lawn aliens be better expended on a lending library, were it to be used merely as a prescription to keep the minds of the clergy employed, and as an antidote to liver complaint ? And yet the spot, where this truly pious clergy man could neither find food nor exercise for his mind, was in the vicinity of Juggernaut, that great head quarters of Indian heathenism—the seat of that mon strous idol, in their pilgrimages to which the unfortu nate inhabitants of India are yearly decimated. We are by no means partisans for interfering with the creed of conquered races—for extinguishing belief by violence. But even toleration may be carried to an extreme length. We interfere with suttees, and hu manely save the widow from burning. But Jugger naut is but another mode by which the selfish heir gets rid of the burden of supporting the widows of those from whom he inherits. - The old women whom the Hindoo is forbidden to burn, he sends to Juggernaut, pretty sure they will never return alive. We must own we think it monstrous that so many thousand pounds sterling annually should be paid by a British govern ment to support the priests of a filthy and abominable idoL 1 haw very little deribt that great wkkedarea prevail* within the temple. In two cam, lately, it is known that minder has been com mitr ol there; yet we, who have held the country to long, are not al'ored to enter the bulldog. It le said that If we attempted It we should be driven from this district; this I do not believe. Some years ego the priests declared that the god would not leave ha country ho me until all the Forish were driven from the province. The ricer commanding at Cuttack directly sent ward that, If the idol wee, not brought back on the usual day, be would come and blow both it and the temp'', to Memo. Juggernath immedlutely tame to his acme, sad was hack in Ms temple one day before hie regular time. During the period the pilgrims remain at Pooree, they are not allowed to eat anything but what has been offered to the idol, and that thee have to bay at a very high price from the prierte. Thu food la often very had, and from that, combined with other cares, the Miters maks sad ravages among thew poo • people. At the festiral that le jug pat, it Is calculated that there were about 130,000 pilgrim Theeholora the year merry mild ; but not lees then lir died at Pooree, or between that place and Cutter. Their bodies are recently thrown out to be deemed by the doge, vultures, and raker. On Sunday morning. in manor some from church, we found that three bodies bad been thrown out In hoot of our k 11.114; two of them were roil ly dimprearing in the Jaws of there animals; the other es truing about la the surf. However, I sent to the magistrate, and he had them removed and burnt. Avm proportion of the pilgrims are widows. In India a widow is not per milted to mat ry ague, but must be supported by her late huitand's relations; and It is rid that many of these poor women are sent down to Prom in the bore of getting rid of them, and no doubt this portage frequently succeeds. and to support this system our go vernment par G.OWI. a year; equal to the aikido, of ten chaplains of our church. This year an event occurred which the Hindus COI:- alder to be very ominous of mil. AR they were bri-ging the gal out, one of the chief prierts was reited with cholera, and was sick all over the idol. The necemery purification' , occupied so long a time, that the precaution was not able to start that day. One great charm and merit of these volumes is I their full, truth-telling character. There are many revelations in these letters, so familiarly written, that, had the writer lived, lie would certainly have refrained from publishing, but which, from the melancholy fir cumstance of his premature death, now see the light. Few Indian officials, however they might imitate and approve the following conduct, would like to offer the picture to the English world at home es creditable. And now I moat mention wane eiremetances which to me rendered our expedition to bicilehor very emote...ant ; they relate to the man- ner lo which our party nested the rajah. On the morning of our' arrival, after our descent from the kills, he came with • party of koreemen to all upon on. We were Just sitting down to breakfast when I observed the cavalcade approaching. I mentioned it, and pro posed that, receding to Indian politenes, we Mould go into the ver andah of our tent to receive them. But the principal man of our party rid, "Oh ! bother the fellow, we can't re him now ;" and ha vent a resent out to tell him so. In the afternoon the rajah ant his man, corresponding to our chief gamekeeper in England, to ask when we should like the coolies to beat the jungle, and to ry that he would I Join us In the hunt. We named the time and started accordingly, found the ranee in readlneas, and my the rajah and his brother co..iing upon elephant. Our party began to move on, when I asked, " Will you not wait for the r*h ti" I thoold think not," was the reply ; "we don't want the beastly piercers with De." And yet there civilised men mete ear enough to make use of there beastly Mara' miles and elephant. I stayed behind and had some talk with them. The next day the two *elm called at the teat; they entered as gen tlemen, and mode the Indian Mutation. Wish the exception of myself Ido not think one of our party even rose nom his chair. In the course of convereation we snoke of the badoesis of the water we got. The raj eh immediately offerer' to and a man eix miles into the hills to fetch Immo teem a mountain strearo. In little more than an hour afterwards, one of our party, freling thirsty, sent a erre - arta auk the rajah whether he had not got that enter yet.

Acland's testimony . and experience are also valuable in another very important point, which is the subject of agitation at present. We allude to the salt ditties. Mr. Acland's place of residence was very near the scene of the India salt-makers' duties, and his account of the way in which the latter, as well as the public of India, are treated by the fiscal authori ties of Calcutta, requires indeed to be made public throughout the empire.

THE STAG AT BAT.--The large Edwin Inflamer in the last Royal Academy exhibition, called the " Stag at Bay," hes just been engraved in the mixed mezzotint° manner, by Mr. Thomas Lendseer, the elder brother of the painter. The picture wu painted for the Marquis of Brendal. bane, and is full of effect, and that tine poetry of rune and circumstance whieb Mr. Landseer never fails in conveying to the commonest subject. The head of the conquered animal is in Mr. Landseer's best manner, replete with pride, suffering, and disdain. Had the picture been squarer in shape the legs of the doge might have been introduced, and the general arrangement very much improved. The en graving is excellent—in every respect the best work of the artist, who has never been included among our most dis tinguished engravers. PORTRAIT Or HON. SIDNEY HERBERT.—Mr. G. R. Ward has completed a three-quarter engraving of Mr. Sidney Herbert, after the portrait by F. Grant, A.R.A.—a manly predoction, and one of the best works of its clue and charae- ter in the lut Royal Academy exhibition. In the general air of the head Mr. Grant has had Sir Joshua's admirable portrait of Mr. Herbert's ancestor in his eye, and Mr. Ward has worked with • recollection of the engraving from the picture we allude to, which is one of the very best of the old memotinto school.

Before the Vice-niantellor of England. Although it is not wit.' for the court to sit on Christmas eve, the Vice Chancellor consented to attend, at the particu lar request of Mr. Rolt, to hear the following cue : IN RE THE SOUTHAMPTON ESTUARY, EI AAAAA THE SOUTHAMPTON AND DORCHESTER RAILWAY CORP•NT.- 1881:11 DIRECTED TO THE QUERN'S BENCH TO TRT THE RIGHT TO THI ESTI:ART AT SOUTHAMPTON.—IT appeared in this cue that the Southampton and Dorchester Railway Company required, for the purposes of their railway, a por tion of the Southampton estuary, at • place called Red bridge, abutting upon the' manor of Rilbrook. A question had been raised whether Sir John Barker Mill, the lord of the manor, or the crown, was entitled to this land, and the sum of 1,4241., the nurchase-money, wax, consequently, paid into the Bank of Ragland, under tho act of parliament, by the railway company. A petition was now presented by Sir J. B. Mill. that the said purchase-money should be paid out to him, as the lawful owner of the estuary.—The Attorney. General and Mr. Maule, on behalf of the crown, append the petition.—After the case hid been orened for the yeti- Lion, the V,cc Chancellor suggested that the right to the land ought to be tried by a court of law. This was as- seated to by counsel on both sides, and it was agreed that an issue should be directed to the Court of Queen's Bench, to try the question as to who was entitled to the estuary. COMMISSION OF LUNACY. A writ de Innalicoinquinndowa;;;Mild at the Roebuck Tavern, Tornham , reen, before Mr. Commissioner Barlow, to inquire into the state of mind of Miss Maria Cohinge, aged 33, daughter of the late Captain Collings, of the Hon. lime India Company's tervice.—This was one of a duplicate commission, the subject of the inquiry having a sister, against whom the comminion has not yet been opened.—The fol lowing letter wee placed before the learned commissioner; Maria and Amelia Ceilings protest against the haste with which the commission has been got up, tor the purposes of transferring the pro- perty to the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Einter; and 1 hero to solids • month's adjournment ere judgment be pronounecd.—l am, &e., Mr. Miller, who attended on behtlf of the alleged lunatic, observed that nothing could be more rational than that letter. He might remind the court that, in the case of Vesey, the commission was quashed, in consequence of the adjournment having been refused.— Mr. Commissioner Barlow said, if she came here and conducted herself rationally she ought to beat once liberated ; but it was for the jury to be satisfied by her conduct and answers when she appeared before them.—Miss Collings, though requested to be present, refused to attend ; and the commotion having been read, Mr. Temple said he appeared in suppor: of the commission, which had been issued by Mrs. Findlater, in conjunction with her husband. Mrs. Findlater was the only sister (excepting Amelia) to the alleged lunatic. Her father was Capt. Collings, of the Bth Madras Native Infantry, who, in India, had married the daughter of • Spanish merchant, named Isieunda ; the issue was four children, a son and three daughters. 'The former , I having died, the daughters were, at the death of their father, sent to England to be educated. Miss Maria Collings and her sister had been for many years their own mistresses. Mr. and Mrs. Findlater had resided at Montpellier, in the south of France ; but, on recently coming to England, they found the subject of this inquiry, with her sister, inmates of a lunatic asylum, and felt the necessity of pursuing this inquiry, for the protection of ler property and person. In August last, Miss Maria commenced a correspondence with Mr. Goodman, clerk to the Lord Mayor of London, and also with Lord ealmerston, and Lord John Ration, in which letters she declared herself to be the heiress to the Spanish crown, a descendant of Fer dinand VII., calling herself the princess of Bourbon de Bourbon. She imagined that her mother was aseaseinated in the island of Guernsey, a delusion which still existed,—Mr. Goodman, on receipt of the letters, wrote to her friends in Guernsey, and the result had been some proceedings under the Cour Royale of Guernsey, called a conseil de female. The learned counsel here read the letters, which were very voluminous, and of which we give the following brief extracts: The Mows de Bonrhon, lawful demendant of the King of Spain, tiMegib bee mother, who was Embank de Bourbon.

I have sent • letter to the prearaler. at Downing-street. Sir John Talbot is one whose life might be sued, V properly cautioned. All the letters were signed " Maria Amelia Collings Bourbon de Bourbon."--Dr. F. Winslow, of Sussex house, Hammersmith, physician, staid that on Bth December last he saw Maria Collings at the Manor-house, which belonged to ' Mr. Tithe, and was a hens. for the reception of lunatics. She said she was entitled to upwards of 100,0001., was re lated to the royal family of Spain, the Bourbon family, which she alleged was generally known by all parties in Guernsey, where her mother had, in 1828, been cruelly murdered, aa was also well known, and that Sir William Collings and Mr. Joseph Collings were at the bottom of it to get poesesmon of her property. He believed her to be de. cidedly of unsound mind. In crow-examination by Mr. Miller, the witness said that it might be poesible, if the lady had been wrongly informed, to entertain such belief without their being delusions—Several ether medical gentlemen gave corroborative testimony, adding that the alleged lunatic considered she had placed herself under the protection of the Premier, Lord Palmerston, and the Lord Mayor. She was the habit of employing herself in reading, working at her needle, playing on the piano, walking in the gardens, &c. ; in fact, conversing and acting rationally in all reaped., ex cepting as to her delusions.—Francis Findlater deposed that he married • sister of the alleged lunatic. He had not heat d from his wife, or any member of the family, that there was any foundation for supposing that they were related to thevoyal family of Spain, or entitled to great wealth. Her mother, as he believed, had died in the East Indies. He believed the whole were delusions. She had not lived in Guernsey for years. The entire property of Maria amounted to about 300/. a year. There was some other property in the island of Guernsey, where the trustees resided. It was stated that when Maria Collings first went to Mr. Tuke's asylum she held forth for nearly two hours in what is termed " the unknown tongue." At the conclusion of the evidence, by direction of kis Honour, the lady was sent for, but she returned a very po lite message declining, stating that as the weather was very cold, and as she wee a lady, the jury ought to visit her. The court and thejury accordingly repaired to the Manor-house, and bad an interview with the lady, who received them emir. unruly. In mpect to her letters, she said it was of no use her saying anythrng, as whatever she might say would be regarded as the statement of a Mystic, and would not be re ceived as evidence. With respect to the King of the French and her claims, she had placed her affair. in the hands of Lord J. Russell, Lord Palmerston, and the Lord Mayor, to whom she must refer the learned commissioner respecting the island of Guernsey; her sister and self bad been enable to get in formation as to her mother's death. Her sister went there for the purpose, and received a rummer's to attend befere the Cour Itoyak : her sister obtained a guard of honour for the day, and was protected, but afterwards effected her wept. She objected to her affairs being placed in the hands of Mr. Findlater. She was as happy and comfortable as she could be is a lunatic asylum. She concluded by saying that the inquiry was conducted with too much haste. The court then returned, and after some discussion the proceedings were adjourned for a month.

Grey, one at the prosecutors in the Jab ovuledreg ease is the City. Mr. Booth had advanced 211. en part of the rope to Gardner tool lialiday, who were convicted at the Central Criminal Court, Mr. Booth being ignorant that any unfairness had been used in obtaining it; and Mr. Crosby, for the defendant, contended that under such circumstances his client ooulei not properly be said to detain the property unlawfully. Mr. Broth was, however, willing to give up the rope on the pey meat of a moiety of the can advanced.—Mr. Grey said be only required the sanction of the magistrate to urge to the proposition.—The Lord Mayor and Alderman Gibbs said, the mere production of the documents necessary to show that the persona accused of the fraud had been convicted at the Central Criminal Court, would cost mere money than the complainant could gain if the decision were in his favour. It therefore appeared adviaabO that the offer of Mr. Booth's solicitor should be accepted, and they would make out an order accordingly with the view of putting an end to the difference upon the subject.—Mr. Duke, a tradesman into whose hands some of the rope had tome, niter having passed through the hands of others, was also summoned to show cense for the unlawful detention of the property.—Mr. Crosby, upon the part of Mr. Duke, said that gentleman win anxious to give up the rope to which Mr. Gray laid claim, but he required an indemnification, In order to be able to answer any claim which might be mode by others upon any future occasion.—lt being stated that the rope claimed was not in the City of London, the Lord Mayor and Alderman Gibbs said they must decline adjudication. If, however, the rope were brought into the City, the cue might be again introduced, and they would decide upon its ments. —This proposition, as well as that made upon the part of Mr. Booth, appeared to he satisfactory to all concerned. WORSHIP-STREET. M9RDEHOVS AASAULTS. —J. Crutehington and J. Kemp were charged with assaulting and wounding W. Ives, and alto with seriously injuring a gentleman named Fox end two policemen who took them into custody.—As the complainant (who was too much in- Bred to attend) was engaged that morning carting in the Bethnal-green-road, the prisoners wantonly pushed sgainst him, and on asking them what they meant, Crutehington struck him two violent blows in the face. The other pri soner wrested his shovel from him, and, greening it with both hands, struck him with all his forte on the side, and knocked him senseless to the ground. The prisoners then walked on, but were followed by some bystanders who had witnessed the assault, and who pointed them out to police man 85 K, who attempted to enure them, but they offered so much resistance that he was obliged to call for a.wistance, which was offered by a gentleman named Fox, who hap. pentad to be pasting, and endeavoured to seize Crutchington, but was knocked down and kicked in a brutal manner. A reinforcement of police arrived, end after a protracted struggle, in which two of the officers were repeatedly knocked down and seriously butt, the prisoners were ulti mately overpowered.—Mr. remauded the prisoners to await the issue of the man's injuries, and refused to accept bail. CHARITT.—Mr. Hammill acknowledged the receipt of 51. for the poor-box from the Earl of C—, who in the letter in which the money was enclosed expressed a hope that others might be induced to " go and do likewise." 51. has also been sent by " M.A.P.," end two sovereigns from " M.F." MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—As lama CLEROYmex AND Hie Soya.—The Rev. Mr. Walsh hes only now drawn , our attention to a case under the above head, which was transferred into our columus from a Sunday paper so long ago ati the Gth inst., end also to a pnragraph which appeared in Bell's Weekly M edger of the 18th inst., containing a contradiction of certain points in the report. Mr. Walsh de clares that he did not incite his eons to assault the complain ant is the rue referred to, by calling to them " Go it, boye— go and get the poker," and that he did not swear, as averred in the report, that his eon had not a poker in his hand, and afterwards admitted he had, but that it was awry little one. Fonotiroßettne TICKETB.—H. Callaghan, C. M, A. Collins, M. Hickey, and IV. Smith were charged with hav ing defrauded J. BWI•y. Some ladles in Welbeck-street and the vicinity had farmed themselves into a charitable club, fur th'- purpose of giving to the deserving poor in the it neighbour hood donations of tee, Lugar, meal, bread, &c. These do nations were in the form of tickets, to be presented at the shop of J. Bailey, grocer and general dealer, of 24, Robert street, who was authorised to supply the holden of the tickets with the articles mentioned on the tickets. Recently it was ascertained that 590 tickets had been presented, prin cipally by Irish of the lowest class, all of which were forge ries. The prisoners, who were recognised as some of the parties who lad brought forged orders, were given into custody. When interrogated, the prisoners gave contra dictory accounts of the way they became possessed of the orders.—Miss Clapp, of Welbeck-street, by whom the order, were purported to be signed, said all the orders produced were forgeries.—The priaonerewere sent for trial.

The prisoner said—" A bottle or two of them would be a good thing for Christmas." When he got off and the basket was handed down, he found that a bottle had been abstracted. No other person being on the trout of the omnibus but himself and the prisoner, he asked the latter to give the bottle back. Prisoner said he knew nothing of it, and threatened to knock him down. While witness was explaining the matter with the prisoner, he saw the water,- man leave the omnibus with something wrapped up to I horse cloth, which he believed to be the wine. He attempted to follow the wa Lerman, but be was prevented by the prisoner, who held him back.—The prisoner solemnly declared that he knew nothing of the bottle. He certainly mentioned something about having a bottle at Christmas—The magis trate committed him for trial. The magistrate acknowledged the sum of five pounds from the " Earl of C." through the hands of the Commis sioners of Police. THAMES.—NON-aUPPLY OP LIME-JUICE TO SEAMEN. —Mr. J. O. Bower, masterof the Margaret West, from Bata via, was summoned by 0. 8. Anon, a seaman, charged with not issuing a daily supply of lime.juice after the crew had been consuming salt pronsions for 10 days, by which he had incurred a penalty of 51. for each default.—Complainant stated that, on the voyage to Batavia, lime juice was only issued four days before reaching that place, and it was after ward. stopped. There was plenty of lime-juice on board. —The defence was, that the crew preferred grog to lime juice, and that when the antiseptic was asked for it was is sued,—The men said the grog was good for nothing, and it was urged that Anion was a water drinker and did not like t jcil int — r hij ;irr Hall or an n ti ot rl t asu wtr il gltdw.thyetolife the r th rit e crew r w asked e fo i r t daily, according to act of parliament.

Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. for the savings banks this morning, which, in the inactive state of business, with a market rather heavy, had the effect of depressing the funds much more than from an operation upon so small a seals might otherwise have been expected. Consols from 86 : to for the opening declined to, and were d one ' at, 854, but they subsequently recovered and left off, as yesterday, 85: to 4. R ed uced Threes closed at 841 to 6, having been 854. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. left off 864 to 4, having been as low as 88/. Appearances seemed in favour of th e maintenance, if not improvement, of prices, from the nature of the operations, as the dealers who sold heavy stocks for money bought Consols for time. Long Annuities were 8,1 to 11-18. Bank Stock, 1884 to 84. Exche quer Bills were higher at from 9s. to 12s. premium. India Bonds, 12s. to 6s. discount. A few isolated bargains only were reported in the foreign house, at prices with scarcely any change. Spanish Fives were 18 to ; the Threes, 30 to Peetorsees, 22 to 3. Mexican, 171 to 184. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. be tter at 68 to 4 ; the Fours, 854 to 4. The transactions in foreign exchange this afternoon were quite unimportant, as is usually the case on the eve of the holidays. On Amsterdam the negotiations were 12.54 to 1; on Rotterdam, 12.54 to 8; on Ant werp, 26.5 to 10 ; on Hamburg, 13.15 to / ; on Frankfort, 1234 to ; on Palls, 25.924 to 26 : on Vienna, 10.19 to 20; on Leghorn, 3L36 to 40; on Naples, 39/ to ;on Madrid, 484, all at three months.

The adjeurned caeoftg at Ihe aredhors of Coates, Hillard, mid Co., took VAN trey, Dlr. Dillon, of Debts Value A meeting of the shareholders of the Ayrshire Iron Company vras held in Glasgow, on Wednesday, when the affairs of that unfortunate undertaking were, for the first time, authoritatively announced. The lia bilities are u follows : Debut 221, _1,179 14 I 15,000 0 0 C 236,719 14 0 to the company t 104872 works. 155,872 9 3 Deficiency £90,1147 4 2 The difficulties of the company appear mainly to have been occasioned by the purchase of the stock of the Blair Iron Company, absurdly valued at 200,0001., to liquidate which, iron had been purchased on credit, sold for cash, and the proceeds paid to the Blair Com pany. The Ayrshire has claims against the latter for over-payment, which are to be demanded of its solvent partners. The Ayrshire is to make a pay ment of 10s. per pound on 15th January, to meet which about 100,0001. has been raised by subscrip tion. No failures of Glasgow . shareholders have yet taken place, and at the meeting shareholders were urged not to allow themselves to become insolvent, as the company could prefer claims that would carry off seven-eighths of their estates,l and so leave nothing to private creditors. The cre- ' ditors of the company, on being made acquainted with the intentions of the shareholders, expressed themselves as being satisfied with them. In Edia. burgh, the caution to avoid the Gazette has been made too late, as several shareholders there have been declared insolvent. Other failures have also taken place, and more are expected amongst writers to the signet, accountants, &c., extensively employed as agents for landed proprietors, who have been in the habit of borrowing for or lending to their clients. These casualties tell directly on shopkeepers and tradesmen, and have caused a stagnation and distrust exceeding even the panic of 1826. Advices from Salisbury state that much disappoint ment was experienced by the smaller creditors of Messrs. Brodie's estate, that the next meeting for the proof of debts should be held in London (13asinghall street), instead of Salisbury, as they had been led to expect at the last meeting. The attend since to make proof in London would necessarily involve parties in considerable expense, and especially the humbler holders of notes and deposits. On ' inquiry at the late banking offices in Salisbury, l applicant, were informed that no official person I would bo down there to take the proof of debts before the latter end of January, or the beginning of February. Instead of 10s. in the pound to be paid promptly, the belief now appears to I be that not more than 66. will be forthcoming. At Shaftesbury the creditors appeared to be still, more annoyed. At the meeting mlled in November last Mr. King, it is stated, promised to pay 20a in full in two Instalments of 10.. each. But that gen tleman no longer lives in the neighbourhood, and has left behind property which, it has been discovered on investigation, is mortgaged to nearly its full value.

We had an almost general improvement in shams yesterday, with a fair amount of betimes. But for this being the eve of the holidays the tranaketions I would probably hare been on • _larger seals still. North British, Eaimmn Comtism, North Stafford; and other lines were much in demand. the firm of Morrison, Dillon, and Co., in the chair. A fresh inveasigation of the accounts had been deemed necessary,and th ey had been accordingly gone through elaborately by Messrs. Farrington and Ladbury, the accountants to the estate, upon the new data supplied. The amended balance-sheet shows 65,828/. liabilities, and 22,2551. assets only. Mr. Coates, it was stated, had made an ofer to pay 3s. 6d. in the pound by four instalments, of which Is. 2d. down, the same in three months, the last in eight months. It was remarked by Mr. Browett, one of the creditors, as singular that Mr. Coates should offer only 3s. 6d. in the pound, when, at the former meeting, the ac counts showed Os. 6d. The assets new exhibited, however, were equal to 6s. Bd. only. He repudiated the offer, and recommended resort to the Court of Bankruptcy to wind up the concern ; to which effect he presented a resolution. The chief grounds assigned by him for this proposition were that the parties had carried on business fur years without taking stock, and with nominal capital only. A creditor, recently from the United States, stated, from facts within his own knowledge, that nothing would be forthcoming to the estate from that quarter. Mr. Fawcett, another creditor, asserted that if the estate went into bank ruptcy the assets would be reduced to much less than the proposition, and if that course were adopted he would beg to offer his debt to Mr. Browett for 2s. 6d. in the pound. Eventually the offer of composition was negatived, and the chairman authorised to file a declaration, so that the estate should be wound up in bankruptcy. It may be doubted whether this was the most pru dent or politic decision. No gross acts of immorality, or of prodigal expenditure, were charged against the ' partners, as in other insolvencies that could be named, and it might be well for the creditors to remember that the insolvents, being of another country, might readily withdraw themselves from the jurisdiction of the laws here. As honourable men they should eschew a course so dishonourable ; and if they have means or friends it is both their interest and their duty to amend their proposition, which there was evi dently a disposition among many of the creditors to entertain in such cane. . _ The following was the amended balance-sheet of the accountants, prbduced by Mr. Wild, the solicitor to the firm: GENERAL STATEMENT OP COATES ♦ND CO.
