The backers of the " Eleven," how. ever, after the result of the first day's play, seeing that Yorkshire had obtained the unusually large score of IS3, began to think that it would be well to lay some of their money another way, w that they might nut lose all they had placed upon them. Those persons, therefore, commenced barking the Yorkshire to win in one innings, and in this way the majority of them gut " pretty well out." A reference to the score will show that the termination thus calculated upon was realised eventually, fur Yorkshire won the match in one innings by ad runs. The Eleven have therefore lost their two first matches of lS 1.

This was an action brought by a puhlican, carrying on business in the neighbourhood of Clerkenwell, against the defendant, who was also a instal can, to recover compensation in damages for the defendant having given the plaintiff maliciously into custody upon a charge of assault. The substance of the plea upon which the defence rested was that the plaintiff had committed an assault upon the defendant's barman in the public street, and within the view of a police constable, awl Out% fore the defendant was justified in giving the phtintar into custody, under the Metropolitan Police .ket. From the evidence of the plaintiffs witnesses, it would lip. pear that on Sunday evening, the 9th of March, in the pre sent year, the plaintiff went to the defendant's house, w here he nanained drinking fur a long time, and upon the de fraud refusing to serve him with any more liquor, he became very violent in his conduct. After some time Use defendant and his barman put him out of the house, and is doing us, as one of the plaintiff's witnesses said, struck Wm two blows. When he was turned out of the house, the &fold:ant ease the plaintiff into the castusly of two policemen for an assault, the plaintiffs witnesses now say ing that it was for au assault upon the defendant, the de fendant's witnesses asserting that the plaintiff was given into custody for assaulting the defendant's barman, Upon the parties going to the station house the inspector refused tot tke the charge, stating that it was a proper case in which to apply fur a warrant. It was for having given the plaintiff into custody under these circumstances that the action - brought. present .4 was ht. Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, for the defence, said that he should he able to prove that the plaintiff. who was well known to the defendant, bad not assaulted hint at all. but that on the Sunday evening in question the plaintiff and five or six other persons, bud wine to the defendant's house, and whilst be was taking tea with some friends, the plaintiff bad created a grzat disturbance. and upon bring turned out by the defendant'. barman, he had struck that person a violent blow, fur which he was givtn into custody by the defendant. Several witnesses were then called on the part of the de fendant, consisting of his brother-in-law, and his wife, who were taking tea at the dekudant's house on the evening in question ; and they deposed to the violent conduct of the plaintiff. Pearce, the defendant's barman, was also called, and stated that he alone turned the plaintiff out of the de fendant's house, and that when he got into the street, ti, plaintiff struck bun a violent blow iu the face. Mr. Serjeant Bytes having replied, Mr. Justice Creswell told the jury that he thouaht the plea of the defendant was not strictly proved, inasmuch as the policeman who had been called said he could not tell positively whether it was the defendant or the hernial' who had been strirk by the plaintiff in the street. Ile would reserve leave, however, to the defendant, to move to enter a verdict upon the plea, lithe court should think that it was proved. As to the damage which the plaintiff had sus tained, what was it? It was clear that he had behaved very improperly in the defendant's house. The plaintiff had been taken through the streets when it was dark, and de tained at the station-house for half an hoar, and it wai for the)uvy to say, under the circumstances, %that damages the plaintiff was entitled to. The foreman of the jury inquired whether in point of law they were bound to And a verdict for the plaintiff.

The short history of the dyeing pro eess is this : madder root formerly was ground into pewder and put into a vat with the cloth to be dyed. The debris of the powder Was termed spent madder, and thrown away as useless. In 1832, the present patentee took out a patent ! somewhat similar to the one now in question—among! other things, for making spent madder available for dye- i ing purposes by means of sulphuric and other acids and frequent washings in told water. It was, however , found that though the madder so prepared yielded colour in dyeing, the. colours were fugitive, and therefore not ofmuch use. In 1812, what was termed the garancine process was introduced from abroad, and came int.) general use. By this process heated acid was applied to the madder, from which n substance was obtained tattled ga rancine. The substance was put into a vat with the clothes to be dyed, and the resat; was that a more brilliant, and in some respects, a more durable, colour I was obtained. In 1843 the patent, the subject of this action, was takea out, the object being V., obtain garancine from spent madder, by the same process previously used fur obtaining garancine front madder it the action fur the infriugement of the plaintiff's patent, the (lief limn ruled that it ,elf.

The bankrupt now owed to unsecured creditors! 3,379/., and 4,923/. to those holding security, the stunrities, however, being only estimated at 3,300/. The assets con sisted of 221.11. in cash and 4101. in furniture, and 371. in goal debts. Mr. Nicholson, the official assignee, reported that the profits had been 7,219/. ; losses, 10,438/.; trade expenses, 4,1121.; domestic ditto, 1,3681.; bail debts, 107/. The bankrupt's transactions bad been very extensive, he having, during his trading, bought wool: to the extent of about 145,0001. He ascribed his heavy lossoi principally to the late revolution in Franc,'. The hooks had been well kept. The statement of losses was fully borne out by the invoices ant other documents produced. Mr. Bagley appeared in support of the bankrupt's appli cation. Mr. Cooke opposed, for the assignees.

Bleakley, be cause he thought himself solvent at the time. Ilis Insol vency had been occasioned by the sales of goals over which lie hail no control. Ile was solvent on the 10th of August, 10.50; the locate had been mainly occasioned by the sacri• Mee of goods; a loss of 4,7001. had been incurred since the bankruptcy.

Fortunately character, judgment was respited until neat anion. the estate would now turn out more favourably, and pro . hably the creditors would get Is. fal. in the pound. That his dealings were not reckless was proved by the fact that the wool which he had bought of Messrs.

But for unavoidable buses, he would now ban. teen 1,000/. before the world. Ilia Honour said the assignee, hail done quite right in having this matter thoroughly investigated, as it involved two or three principle s of great importance to the commer cial world. Nu wonder that Mr. Bleakley felt rather sere. having trusted the bankrupt very shortly before his failure: the circumstances were such as to call fur inquiry, but lie was bound to say that the bankrupt had come out of the in quiry without any stain whatever upon hi. probity or . fair dealing. It wens true he hail been unfortunate in bustansi I twelve year. ago; though he had failed in getting his certi . teat.. front the creditors, he had applied for and obtained it as anon as the power was transit rrol to that court ; it could not 1s• held that he was thereby Ili-qualified from ever bring trusted again ; and it would he monstrotta to say that he should be entitled to no future benefit from the bankrupt laws. Alter obtaining his certificate, he heel not rushed headlong into basins ss without capital, but had cemented himself with acting as au agent or servant for another house, in which capacity he continued for seven year.. and realised, a. shown by the bodes, nearly four thoinand poin:ds. The hoe: for which he had SO acted failed; certain of the goods in his hands were claimed by the assigier. ; and the matter van. arranged by his paying Ms. in the pound on the value. But that could not lie called a taminisition on his part. Ilia books had been kept with singular accuracy, and fully and romplt tely bore out the amount of 1..... a. The loss of 1,900/. un good. esinsimted to France at the period of the revolution in ISIS was clearly the result of navrogolohle ' fortune.

Mr. Pluiseptre, M.P., took the chair 1 and explained the object of the meeting, observing that it was thought by the committee that a combination of the two societies would be productive of increased advantages, and the measure had already received sufficient support to encourage them in the preweeution of their work. The agents of the society, it appeared, weft: distributed in the he lowing colonies--Canadu, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward's Island, Newfoundland, the, Bahamas, the Cape or Good !hire, Western Australia, I'urt Phillip, Van Die men's Land, Mattress, Hong liong,aull Malta.

Birks) to the effect, that as our coldmies .demanded mission ary effort, out merely on the ground of general spiritual d,,,tit u tion, but on account of the, extensive spread of Ro -1 monism, infidelity, and other vital crass, it was the cleaved' this country tee supply them: colonies with clergymen, cote chisel, aced schoolmasters. A resolution was then mewed, w i ntering a vote of thanks to the chairman, and agreeing to the: proposition that the three auxiliary assuciations of the We.g of London be united fur the common purposes of the society.
