Justice Coleridge was entirely of the same opinion. He entirely declined entering into the actual state of facts referred to in the aindavits, but It muckier from the affidavits on both sides, that straw grounds of suspicion rotated, and he was satisfied that there was no ground for believing that Goodwin proceeded otherwiee than from bona ads and from good motives. He thought it right to add, a • general remark with regard to bodies of thin kind, that it was not desirable to treat with too Wrong • band inferior persons in the situation of Goode's, who were bold enough to make such allega tions. Heaven knows that a khoolonster, perhaps tn their employ, but at all events very much under their influence, most have difficulties enough in bringing forwmil • caw of this description. Om also knows how extremely difficult it must be for the' iisupers them selves to expose malpractica from which they ender. Abuses in three institutions were among the most chievom and oppressive that could be, and therefore he should be very sorry to hold too strict a band over such in quiries a. that sought by the defendant in this case. Mr. Jae ice 14 ightman said the question woe not so much whether the charges were really well founded to the letter, but whether Goodwin was actuated by a sense of duty towards the paupers, with whom he was to a certain intent connected. As schoolmaster he had a public duly to perform, and he was justified in exposing any malpractices which might have existed in the workhouse., and there wa• sufficient on the face of the a/Maria to show that he might have entertained s sincere opinion that as km- Cgesyetern was carried on in the workhouse, and that In the paupers did mot get the allowances whkh according to the contracts t were entitled to receive. And se the court wee influenced by • sincere desire to remora amok einem where they existed conn• to law, and aeringthat the motives here were devoid of all malls which wee en einntiel dient in these mew, he agreed with hie leaned brothers that the rule should be discharged.

In this came an Im p ortant derision was given on county court commitments. no ens we. opened on Saturday, and resumed this morning, beibee the Chief Commiaioner by Mr. Sturgeon, who applied for the discharge of the Maul ventotho had been summoned et the Oldness County Court, in Lancsahire, for • debt ten yearn old. As he lived la Westminster, he could not attend, and on the 2nd of October an order of commitment was made, on which he was taken on tho 31. t of October for thirty days, and is now in White mom-areal prism. Mr. Sturgeon proved that the insolvent obtained his /u -terine order under the Protection Act on the 23rd October, to be heard on the 27th November. Ho therefore applied for his discharge. The Mel Conneivrioner gars an elaborate judgment, sad as the as would form a precedent, it was an important cpasetion. The repeal of the 102nd section of the County Courts' Act was relied upon, but be did not think it touched the men The roan did not appear, and the commitment was for non-appearance, and in euch came this court did not in terfere. The law Ina strong enough before the act of lad year, but it was pealed to save the court at Westminster the trouble of deriding the matter. Some county court* bed disregarded the protection of this court, and the court at Westminster shirked the decision. His Honour referred to the nee of the Queen's Chaplain, in which he considered the question of privilege had been carried too far. In this case the commitment wee on the 2nd Oct , and the protection of the court rem net obtained until the 23rd of the same mouth. The court bad sever interfered under such circumatanole, and th tion e application for discharge must be refund. Ap plica refused. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) THAMES.

Two o'CLooc. FRESH RISE IN THE BANK RATE OF DISCOUNT. The directors of the Bank of England have this morning raised the minimum rate of discount from 9 to 10 per cult. for bills up to 95 days. Notwithstanding this new severity, and the large failure just announced, the funds retain great comparative firmness. Compared with the closing quotations of Saturday, the reduction does not exceed 1 to per cent. The other departments of , the Stock Exchange are lower. Consols for money and to-morrow were float marked 881 and 881, fell, on the alteration at the Bank, to 881 to 1, and are now quoted 881. For the Bth of December, the present price; is 881 to 89. The Three per Cents. Reduced are marked 871; the New Three per Cents., 881 and 87/ ; Bank Stock, 209 and 211 ; Exchequer Bills, 245. to 17s. die; India Bonds, 50e. dia., being again lower; and Exchequer Bonds, 18.58 and 1859, 984. Turkish Six per Cents, have declined to 861 to 87. Other foreign stocks are very dulL Sales are recorded as follows : Brazilian Old Five per Cents., at 99 ; Granada Deferred Bonds, at 6 ; Mexican Bonds, at 181; Peruvian Four-and-a-Ralf per Cents., for account, at 76; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1863, at 421; Spanish Old Three per Cents., at 401; Turkish Six per Cents., at 871; ditto, for account (16th Nov.), at 861; ditto Guaranteed Four per Cents., for account, at 961. No bar gold was taken from the Bank for expor tation on Saturday. We notice as a favourable fea ture that, although 90,0001. in silver arrived in the Thames on Thursday from Boulogne and Havre, making an ascertained total of at least 230,0001. in Continental silver imported last week, the recent advance in the Continental exchanges renders it practicable to make payment through the medium of bills. At Hamburg the rate of discount has risen from 9 to 91 per cent. las-lonlak pleani Da. istostai.::: thl.lll.

II U 14 I !. di It Ii de The important firm of Messrs. Dennistotin Cross, and Co., of London, largely engaged in the imelican trade, have been compelled to suspend payment, owing to the non-arrival of remittances from the United States. This is the largest suspension yet announced, and the engagements of the house are of the mast extensive character. Inasmuch, however, as the property of the firm, together with the pri vate property of the partners, was estimated at the beginning of the present year to be worth something like a million sterling, it is inferred that the stop page will be merely temporary, and that none of the creditors will ultimately sustain actual loss, how ever great may be the temporary inconvenience. From Liverpool two more failures are announced, the firms being those of Messrs. Douglas and West wit, merchants and ship-broken ; and Mr. A. E. Byrne, who is engaged in the Canadian wood and shipping trade. Both houses were respectable. We understand that the liabilities of Meson. Nayler, Vickers, and Co. have been considerably overstated. The amount is stated, on good authority, to be under 300,0001. Neither is it apprehended that other firms in Sheffield will be shaken by their suspension. Their trade was almost exclusively with America, and their liabilities in Sheffield do not exceed 15,0001., incurred chiefly with extensive coal companies. The meeting of creditors is fixed for the rather late date of the 24th instant, in order to allow time for representatrces of the creditors in Cweden to be present at it; and not from so long a time being required to prepare the accounts, from which an accurate statement of the affairs of the firm can be extracted at once. Although they have fear houses—one et Sheffield, one at Liverpool, one at New York, and one at Boston—yet these consti tute the same firm with the same partners, one of whom resides in Stockholm. There is, however, no branch house there; consequently there are no com plicated interchanges of accounts to arrange and adjust, the present establishment at Sheffield having always the transactions of every branch posted up to the latest advice.. It is believed on all sides that the suspension of the business of this important firm will be but temporary. The imports of gold lost week were trifling, amounting to only about 45,000/., comprising 40,0001. by the Lion, from St. Petersburg, and 6 , 2661. by the Colombo, f rom Alexandria. The shipments have been large. The Custom house weekly statement of the exports of the pre cious metals direct from London includes 23,320 oz. of gold and 2,500 oz. of silver, representing a total value of about 91,0001. These supplies were de spatched to France and Belgium, chiefly to the former country. The particulars are as follows, viz.: Gold coin—to Belgium, 3,120 oz.• te Boulogne, 200 oz. Gold bare—to Boulogne, 20,000 oz. Silver coin—to Belgium, 400 oz.; to Boulogne, 1,200 oz. Silver bars—to Boulogne, 1,200 oz. The shipments from the outports have comprised 968,8471. (of which 12,1521. was gold and 944,6961. silver) by the Ripon, for Alexandria and the East; 8,7001. by the Medway, which will sail on Monday fur the Brazils ; 3,2001. by the Oscar, for Africa ; about 63,0001. in bar gold and sovereigns drawn yesterday from the Bank, by' the Tagus, for the Peninsula ; 13,0001. by the City of Washington ; 68,0001. by the Ariel ; and 120,0061. by the Niagara— all three for New York. The total ascertained shipments of the week are thus raised to about 1,302,0001., but the bulk of those consisted of silver. On the Continent the exchanges on London are reported firm. At Hamburg, however, the quota tion for 3 mouths' paper has declined, owing to the rise in the rate of discount in that city. At Amster dam the tendency of the exchange is more favour able. In the Bankruptcy Court on Saturday, in the ease of Mesas. Kemp and Clay, bill•brokers, of Nicholas lane, Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque awarded only third-class certilicates—suspended in the case of Mr. Kemp for six months, and in that of Mr. Clay for three months, from the date of the last examination in August. The Bankruptcy Court have made an order for winding up Groux's Improved Soap Company. A can of 21. is to be paid on the now shares in the Brighton, Ilove, and Preston Constant Service Water works Company by the Ist Dec. The result of a visit to the sherry district is thus described by Mr. F. W. Coseus, in a circular dated the 4th inst.: Baying just returned from the sherry district I consider it desirable to place the folio. ing facts before you. The result of the vintage has not proved satisfactory ; the show of fruit wee much in excess of that of last year, but in coneequenoe of the unusually die meson the yield of t•Meatto - has Leen lest. The present state of the sheer, wine trade demands grave consideration, and it is desirable that home dealers should dearly realise their position as to future supply and prices. The actual money-wealth of the growers and " Aimee.. " of Jen; Port fit. Mary, &c., has during the last See years vastly lacressod, consequent upon the realisation of old accumulated stacks at very remunerative prices; large sums seek investment, and as wine is theonly commodity produced, all capital most remoin unproductive, or be invested in that one article. The scarcity of young wines now we are coming upon th• recent short vintages is severely felt, and as the tt Aliases aides" readily give higher prices than ever, comparatively new wine realises the tame value se that at which comped tion now compels the shipper to supply fine old sherry to the English wine merchant—the recall is that shippers must for another year mainly depend upon their own reserves to sup ply their connexions; the present state of the trade not justi fymg release at such rats so would render imperative an advance of 101. per butt upon all marks of current sale. BATVEDAT EVENING. The funds this morning opened flatly, owing to the very unfavourable Bank returns, but animation was imparted by a purchase of 80,0001. stock for account of the Court of Chancery. As persons who had effected speculative sales in anticipation of the publi cation of the Bank returns then came in as buyers, a farther upward movement was occasioned. Daring the whole of the afternoon great firmness was exhi bited, and the closing quotations were 4 per cent above than of yesterday.
