HEIBTON ELMCTION 00MILTITEE. The following members were sworn as • oommittea to issamine into the allegations of • ppeeti4tion oompleining of the late election for Holston : Barttelot, Mr. Denman, Mr. &Gurney, Lord E. Howard, and Mr. Robert Lowe (chairman.) CARLOW LUNATIC ASYLUM. Yr. BRuiti --- .aia the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether Dr. White, the Resident Superintendent of the Oarlow Lunatic Asylum, bad tendered his resignation ; when that resignation had been received by the govern ment; and whether a new superintendent had been appointed, and the date of the appointment. Kr. C. FORTESCUE said that the superintendent had died, not resigned, last week. The claims of the gentleman who was candidate to be his successor were under conside ration, and if bisqualifications should be found satisfactory, he would, no doubt, be appointed. ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.-THE RANK RATE. Mr. CHILDEItS moved the adjournment of the house until Thursday next. Mr. WATKIN craved the permission of the house to nay half-a-dosen words on a subject so deeply affecting the trade and commerce of the country as not to permit ef its standing over a day. (Hear, hear.) They were then in the inconvenient position of having no government, except that her Majesty's ministers held that position de facto until their successors were appointed. The Chancellor of the Exchequer was not present, but the whole trade of the country was inquiring whether the letter of the right lon. gentleman to the Bank of England was to remain un modified with fifteen millions of bullion in that establish ment, and twenty-six millions in the Bank of France. He wanted to know whether in such a state of things the Bank rate was to remain at 10 per cent. (Hear, hear.) He was lorry the Chancellor of the Exchequer was not present to answer on a subject which was exciting so much lIDOSZ/11011 and creating so much inconvenience. It might have been fair to allow the Bank to hoist the storm signal in time of danger, but surely it was not to remain up after the dance had passed. He thought the matter so important thTIV: should suggest the ad' ant to be fixed for to-morrow (this day) instead of Thursday, so as togive the Chancellor of the Exchequer the opportunity of irn friug some explana tion on the subject of the letter. Mr. CHILDERS said it was distinctly understood in fixing the meeting of parliament for that day that no busi ness, except such as was purely pro forma, should be taken. Re (Mr. Childers) could therefore express no opinion on the subject started by the hon. member, nor could the Chancellor of the Exchequer, had he been present. THE PROPOSED MEETING IN TRAFALGAR SQUARE. Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Home Secretizy whether he was aware that the meeting recently held in Trafalgar square had been adjourned to that evening, and if so, 'ether the right hon. gentleman and the police bad taken steps calculated to preserve the peace on the occasion. Sir G. GREY—Yes, sir, they have. (Loud laughter.) The house adjourned at twenty minutes part four o'clock. GREAT REFORM DEMONSTRATION. An immense outdoor meeting, under the auspices of the National Reform League was held last night JAI Trafalgar-square. The statements in the morning papers that the police intended to suppress the meeting, and the circulation during the day of placards calling upon the men et London to attend, in ceder to " uphold Gladstone and liberty, and vindicate the right of public meeting," probably tended to increase the attendance. Al though the meeting was fixed for eight o'clock, there were over a thousand persons in and about the square at seven, and by half-part the number had doubled. Many expressed their surprise at the absence of the large bodies of police they had expected to see, the only representa tives of Scotland-yard being the two men who usually occupy the " best." The open spaces in the square were rapidly occupied, and by a quarter to eight there were not fewer than 20,000 persons within the radius of which the Nelson monument is the centre. The steps of St. Martin's church, the porch of the National Gallery, and the windows of the hotels to the right, and houses to the left, were filled with spectators of a miscellaneous cha racter, while immediately surrounding the monument some thousands of respectably dressed artisans were massed. Before, during, and after the proceedings these men, without exception, conducted themselves with as mach decorum and intelligence as the frequenters of any public meeting that takes place. About an eighth of the aasembly, as might be expected, was composed of raw youths and "roughs." Feuding the arrival of the leaders of the meeting, the crowd engaged in quiet dis cussions amongst themselves, in the reading of newspapers, and in a little occasional denunciation of obnoxious men and measures. The largeness of the congregation hastened the commencement of the business, and as soon as Mr. E. Beale', the President of the League, and his supporter., arrived, the speaking began without let or hindrance. Shortly after a procession, headed by a brass band, arrived from Hoxton, and a little later another procession from Clerkenwell. The latter carried crimson silk banners, with reform mottoes inscribed upon them. Other flags, borne apparently by independent parties, were displayed during the evening, bearing such inscriptions as " Vox populi vox Dei ;" or "No toryism ;" or " Gladstone and the people." It was necessary to bold three separate meetings, one under the Nelson monument, and two at corners of the square. Looking from the base of the monument white hew could be seen upturned in every direction, and the dimensions of the gathering, reaching at its height perhaps more than 30,000, together with the subdued and earnest behaviour of the bond-fide meeting, created impressions that must have been striking, if not affecting, to all who witnessed the assembly. As the concourse was too large for the practical purposes of speech-making to two-thirds of the audience, the pro. ceedinp must have been little more than dumb show. The speakers soon shouted themselves hoarse, and the densely packed hearers soon got too tired to pay absorb ing attention ; added to this, the general murmur of the crowd, the cheers from the other meetings, and the distant rumble of vehicles, made it evident that the speaking would be the least successful portion of the programme. Mr. Bealea told the working men ho was glad they, who were said by their enemies to have placed London in a state of siege, had by this meeting put it out of the power of anyone to say for the future that the artisans did not care for reform. He explained that he had re solved to attend the meeting, because he had been given to understand that the police had determined to stop them, but be had during the afternoon received the following letter from Sir It. Mayne, the commissioner of police : The Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis has to acquaint the president or chairman of the public meeting announced to beheld this evening in Trafalgar-square that the police have instructions not to prevent or in any way in terfere with the holding of the meeting in • peaceable and quiet manner. But should bodies of persons proceed together through the streets in such • manner that their number, noise, demeanour, or language, will be calculated to cause a breach of the peace, or excite terror and alarm in the minds of her Majesty's subjects, it will become the duty of the police to prevent, and if necessary put a stop to such proceedings, and apprehend any persons en couraging or assisting at them. The mention of the commissioner of the police was re ceived with hisses, the announcement of his determination with loud cheers, and the reference to " terror and alarm" with such prolonged laughter that Mr. Beides could not at once proceed. Raving read the letter, he reminded the meeting that the working men of England were on their trial ; that they had been grossly and persistently, in sulted ; and that their duty was, while answer ing their calumniators by magnanimity and for bearance, resolutely to insist upon their share in the franchise. The next speaker was Mr. Lucraft, who implored his fellow working men to carry on their agitation with • temperate firmness that must in the end ensure success. Mr. Osborne, Mr. McGilchrist, Mr. J. B. Langley, Mr. Mantel, and Mr. Brsdlaugh, were the succeeding speakers. Their laudation of Earl Russell Mr. Gladstone, or Mr. Bright was loudly cheered : the mention of Mr. Lowe and Lord Elcho pro voked hisses and groans. Two resolutions were passed unanimously, and with much applause. The first declared that the present franchise was a mockery of the principles of the constitution, and that the " factious and class oppo sition offered by twits and sham liberals to the late mode rate Reform Bill, together with the injurious and insulting language used towards the working classes," rendered household and lodger, or full manhood suffrage imperative, The second resolution thanked and eulogised Lord Russell and Mr. Gladstone, regretted their retirement from the ministry, and hoped for their speedy return to office. A vote of thanks having been passed to the president, two or three speakers urged all persona present to go quietly home, without making any further demonstration. Colonel Dickson and Mr. Brooks were amongst the speakers at the other meetings. The majority took the advice that bad been tendered, and left the square, dispersing in different directions. About a thousand, however, went in a body to Carlton house-terrace, and halted before Mr. Gladstone's house, shouting his name and cheering, but the utter absence of light in the windows had the effect of damping the enthu siasm. A general movement was then made to Pall-mall, and a halt was called at the Reform Club. Loud cheers were given, and two or three members appearing at the window leaving their pocket handkerchiefs the applause was intensified, while a crowd of spectators, exceeding those actually engaged in the demonstration, gathered on the opposite pavement. A few steps brought the crowd to the Carlton Club, and hisses and groans were given with energy. A score of young members, chiefly in evening dress, Hocked out to the steps, and ap peared to be " chaffing " those nearest the door. This caused considerable excitement. Several lads leaped to the top of the short walls and shouted into the windows, the doorway was literally besieged, and what with the crowd and the accumulation of cabs and carriages the streets were soon impassable. The uproar continued for over half an hour, but not • policeman was to be seen. Three or four guards with fixed bayonets, marching along to relieve their brethren, were at first hooted, the suppo sition being that they were come to clear the etrests, but the mistake was soon discovered and laughed at. A section of the crowd proceeded to Lord Elcho's, but they were prevented from entering the street by a strong force of police. Thus baulked, they returned to the Carlton, delivered • few parting groans, cheered Mr. Gladstone as they passed his house, and then, somewhere about eleven o'clock, left the neighbourhood in peace. It is only right to state that the persons composing this crowd were not of the working men who had met in Trafalgar-square. They appeared to be lads of 18 or 19 and labourers, who were determined to use the phraseology of the reformers for the purposes of fun and excitement. They had been evidently on the outskirts of the meeting, for before it was dissolved they had started for Mr. Gladstone's. The efforts of the leaders of the demonstration to persuade the working men connected with the League to abstain from any such pro- ceeding were quite successful. REFORM DEMONSTRATION ♦T LnicanYßß.—We learn by telegraph that a reform demonstration took place last night in the Market-place, Leicester. Twenty thousand persons were present. Resolutions were purred condemn ing a tory administration, expressing confidence in Lord Russell's government, and recommending continuous agitation. At the dose cheers were given for Lord 12-isseU, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Bright, and the borough members. SOUTH KENSINGTON MIIBIMII. , I'ISULOTS during the week e n ding 30th June, 1866.

The following is the report of the sub-committee to be made to the committee at a meeting to be held at the Mansion-house to-morrow :--The sub-com mittee beg to report the proceedings adopted by them winos the meeting held at the Mansion-house on the 12th day of January, 1866. It will be remembered that at that meeting the sub-committee were directed to take measures to make known to companies and firms the loots ob of the 'emaciation, in order to obtain from them con tributions towards the sum required for the establishment of the first and central school in London, and also towards obtaining a charter and selecting • site for the first schooL Much time and attention has been given by the committee to these objects. Circulars have addressed to all the leading firms and individuals in the City assumed to be willing to co-operate in the undertaking. The result of these operations has been that a sum in the whole of 34,10:11. has been promised, of which 46,2211. has been actually paid, and the sub committee do not doubt that further sums will be forth awning, as the advanced position of the undertaking is known. The committee are happy also to be able to re port that a royal charter of incorporation has been ob tained. By the terms of this charter a corporation is Greeted under the title of " The Corporation for Middle- Class Education in the metropolis and the suburbs thereof," and power is conferred by it " to erect one or more school or schools in the metropolis and the suburbs thereof, and to carry on therein • system of education of a practical character, based on sound religions principles, and such as shall be calculated to tit the scholars for the industrial and commercial work of life, under the super intendence of • head master, who shall be appointed by the council, and who shall be a member of one of the 'Universities of the United Kingdom." The Bishop of London for the time being is also appointed the visitor of the corporation. All subscribers of 1001. to the objects of the association are constituted life governors, with power of electing a council to consist of twenty-one members, in addition to the Bishop of London for the time being, and the Lord Mayor for the time being of the City of Lon don, who are constitueil ex officio members of the council. A meeting of the life governors is directed to be convened within three calendar months for the purpose of appoint. ing the council, and the council is to have full power from time to time to make bye-laws and regulations touching the government of the corporation. The committee have also given much time and consideration to the question of the selection of a site for the establishment of the first school. Reports being current that the ground on which the Charter-house school stands was to be disposed of, your committee entered into communications with the governors, stating their readiness to treat for the purchase of the whole or a portion of the ground. To these over tures the committee received no official reply, and they are ' still in ignorance how the matter stands, but they have been informed that the offer of the ground has been made ' by the governors of the Charter-house to the Merchant Taylors' Company. Your committee have inspected other sites in various places, and after mature consideration, ' being much impressed with the expediency of commencing' operations at ea early a period as possible, they have selected the French Protestant hospital, in Bath-street, City-road. which appeared to them to offer many Rama- taps. principally because there are already buildings erected upon it which can be converted at very small cost into good school-rooms. The site also has the advantage of being in a locality inhabited by people of the class whose children it is proposed to educate, and it possesses also the benefit of a good play-ground. The committee having had the offer of taking this site for a period of three years, with the option of acquiring a long lease, have decided on taking it for three years, and laying out upon the building • sum not exceeding 2,040 f. in the first instance, which will suffice to enable the corporation to carry on the school, which they hope to be able to open at Michaelmas next. By these arrangements a very large amount of the subscriptions will be retained until, under the provisions of the charter, they can be ap plied to the erection of schools in other localities as may be deemed desirable. The committee would now only urge upon the friends of the undertaking, the policy of making known its objects in every direction, with a view to the increase of the subscribed funds. When the enor mous demand for education is considered, it will be seen that, while the fund contributed is on the whole large, considering the shortness of the time since the object was first made known, and the incompleteness of the arrangements up to the present time, the work before them is great, and the funds necessary for carrying it on, on an adequate scale, ought to be of commensurate amount. Appalls are being made, and will be continued, to corpo rations, trustees and other administering charitable funds ; and in those respects also, the assistance of individuals well disposed to the object will be of great advantage.— W. S. HALE, charman. ots.l.

REPRESENTATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF DUBLIN. —We have authority for statingthat Mr. H. E. Chatterton, q.c., will present himself to the electors of the Univer sity of Dublin, in the event of a vacancy occurring. There are now four candidates in the field—Mr. J. E. Walehe, Q.C. ; Sir Edward Grogan, Mr. Chatterton, and Mr. R. Loaggeld.—Ds64is SveriWag Mail. , , THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 3, 1866. Drama. PRINCESS'S. Some time before the production of The Streets of London, that is, in the early part of the year 1864, the public were told in some of those journals which are fruitful in theatrical gossip, that a play by Mr. Watts Phillips called The Huguenot Soldier was in rehearsal at the Princeu'a Theatre. 1864, 1865, and the beet half of 1866 have passed away, and with them three such solid dramatic and scenic successes at the Princess's as The Streets of London, Arran na Pogue, and It is sever too tale to wad, and last night the long-promised drama by Mr. Phillips was produced at this house under the title of The Huguenot Captain. Mr. Vining, unlike some of his brother managers, has spared neither labour nor expense to make the piece effective. To quote some of the words of the advertisements, the costumes have been designed by M. Marcelin, of Le Vie Pariaienne, the celebrated designer of the costumes in La Licht au Bois. The vocal music has been composed by Mr. J. L Hatton, the incidental and dance music byMr.Charlee Hall,and the notorious Frenchgrotesque dancers from the Theatre Imperials du Chatelet, whom Mr. Fechter indignantly denied that he had engaged for the Lyceum, have been imported to give unwonted spirit to the " grotesque dances of the period." The ballet is under the direction of Mr. Milano, and unusual pains have I been taken to illustrate old Paris in the scenery painted by Mr. F. Lloyds. In addition to this the company boa been strengthened by the engagement of several old and new favourites—Mrs. Stirling, Mr. George Honey, and Milli Neilson, the last actress being a young lady who made a very favourable impression a few months ago as Juliet in a performance at the New Royalty Theatre, and who was promised, at one period, at the Lyceum. The piece is a thin imitation of the Dumas school of dramas, but the liberality and taste with which it is put upon the stage ought to secure the patronage of a spectacle-loving public. Mr. Watts Phillips was called on at the termination of the drama, and came on to ac knowledge the compliment. It is almost unnecessary to say that the house was crowded with the usual literary and artistic people who form so large a portion of a first I I night's audience. ALHAMEB.A. A new spectacular scene and ballet, called The Titanic Cascada and Sports of Diana, was exhibited for the first time last night at this theatre of varieties in the place of the celebrated Butterfly Ballet and Fairy Scene by Mr. Callcott. The Titanic Cascades, aa their name implies, are immense torrents of real water falling from the top of the lofty stage over what appear to be real rocks, on to • lake of looking-glass, and then flowing off in • broad glittering stream, and disappearing through the stage. The looking-glass effect is one which Mr. Call. cott introduced and patented • few years ago in • scene that he constructed for Madame Celeste at the Lyceum Theatre, and in this Alhambra spectacle he has surpassed, if possible, his former artistic labours. The ballet invented by Madame Collier to give life to this scene is • combination of marches and dances by a hundred graceful girls, who are chiefly attired to represent Diana and her attendant nymphs. As • water spectacle— & cool and pleasant exhibition during the hot weather—this new scene is doubtless one of the largest and most elabo rate ever placed upon the stage. The present programme at the Alhambra is full of novelties, comprising three new ballets, an extraordinary child on the low rope, and an equally astonishing Italian Hercules. M. Leotard has returned to London, arid is announced to give twelve fare well morning performances at this house, every Tuesday Thursday, and Saturday in July. In addition to M Leotard's performance on the flying trapeze—the most graceful and original gymnastic feat ever exhibited—the new water ballet will be given, and other attractive en tertain' went.. ,MUSit. MONDAY POPULAR CONCERTS. The Popular Concert of last night brought the season of 1866 to a close. It was the last concert of the eighth season, and the 216th number of the series from the beginning. The following was the programme, which will give the musical reader a good idea of the character of the concert: PART L Quartet. In 0, Op. 19, No. 2, for two violins, viola, and violoncello—MM. Wien'weld, I Flea, Henry Nauruan, and Matti Song, "Sleep, thou Infant angel"—Mir Banks plinks. Emprernptne, in C minor and E flat. Op. 90, for pianoforte alone—Mr. Charles Halle Schubert. Sonata, in A major, for violoncello, with piano forte accompaniment —Signor Matti Bombast:lL Recit., "Ma the Insollta lute" 1 Mr. Bentley Handel. Air, "0 rot dell' Ereto" Tema con Vaitunonl, in D, for pianoforte and violoncello—Madame ArabeUa Goddard and Signor Matti PART H. Sonata, In D. for two Pianofortes—Madame Ara bella Goddard and Mr. Charles Halle Mozart. Recitative and Air, Nov Heaven In fullest glory" (Creation; Mr. Smiley Riegle, for violin, with pianoforte accompani ment—M. Wientawski Ernst. Seranade, " Quand to chinks berate "—Miss lianlr;:'wiattioloncello ol;blIgato, Signor Matti. Trio. In 0 major. for pianoforte. violin, and Vio loncello -Mr. Charles Hallo, Y. Wienlawskl, and Signor Matti Conductor Mr. Benedict. The selection was more ample, and the concert longer than on the ordinary nights. In addition to the usual Quartet, we had two great pianists instead of one—Halle and Arabella Goddard—and due employment provided for both, and both received with the honour due to their rank and talents. Mozart's Sonata in D Major, for two piano fortes, is one of his grandest compositions for that install. ment. It is seldom heard ; but was played at one of these concerts six years ago by the same per formers. Executed as they do it, it is one of the greatest treats that the amateur can possibly receive. Men delssohn's Tema eon eariarioni in D, for the piano and violoncello, played by Arabella Goddard and Piatti with exquisite grace and finish, was one of the most captivating features of this excellent concert. Sims Reeves was engaged for this occasion, but was disabled from appear. ing, the public will learn with much regret, by a heavy domestic affliction, the toes of his son, a fine boy cf nin e years old. His place was taken by Bentley, whose singing of Handel's grand Italian air, " 0 voi dell' Erebo," was • magnificent performance. These admirable concerts will be resumed in November next, when, we trust, they will be continued with the same success, and the same advantage to the progress of the highest order of music in this country, that have hitherto attended them. Swimmusn MATCH.—Yesterdaymorning, at seven o'clock, the match for the gold medal, open to all who have never before won a similar, was swam in the Se tine from the rails to the Kensington•bridge, a thousand yards. There were twenty-two entries, and twenty-one started, Mr. John Latey, the hon. sec. of the London Swimming Club, acting as referee, vice Mr. Williamson, the president, who was unavoidably absent. There was a capital strut Mr. W. Cole having the best, and Mr. D. J. Arias, of Coventry, the worst of it, but when a third of the distance had been " done " the last-named gentleman went a-bead at a strong pace, and won easily by forty yards ; Mr. J. Cole beat Mr. W. Crinian for second place by Sve yards, and Mr. W. Cole, as fourth man, headed a very rtraggling division as placed thus : Mr. G. Parrott, Mr. C. Whyte, Mr. W. Long, Mr. S. Hicks—the others coming in in the course of the morning. The winner did the distance in 18 minutes 294 seconds, and the second and third divided the entrance money, Mr. Crinian preferring a medal to the coin. There was an enormous assemblage of spectators. RAILWAY BILLS BEFORE PARLIAMENT.—Yorter day in Lord Redesdale's committee of the House of Lords, the following bills were passed through, and ordered to be reported :—The Wycombe Railway, Salisbury and Yeovil Railway, and Devon Valley and North British Railway Companies (arrangements). The standing orders were passed in the cap of the Swerves and Clydach Railway Bill. Mr. Smith, the examiner in room Bof the House of Lords, passed the standing order proofs in the fol lowing cases:—The East Norfolk Railway; Lan cashire Union Railways ; Halesowen and Bromsgrove Branch Railways ; Carmarthen and Cardigan Rail way ; Brecon and Llandocery Junction Railway ; South Eastern Railway ; Bo'ness and Grangemouth Railway ; London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway (various powers) ; Vale of Neath Railway (transfer, &c.) ; Caledonian and Scottish North Pastern Railway Companies; Caledonian Railway (Lanarkshire, &c., branches); North British Railway (Wishaw, &c., branches); Swansea Vale Railway; Tamar, Kit-hill. and Callington Railway ; North British (Ta 7 Bridge) Railway ; and Rhyraney Railway. The examuier opened the considera tion of standing order proofs of the South Eastern and London, Chatham, and Dover (London, Lewin, and Brighton), opposed bill, which was adjourned until this day. The London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway (Bt. Leonards sad Hastings lines) ; and the East and West Junction Railway (diversion of roads) Bills were also odious's& *porting intelligence.

WILLS r. !MOON. _ _ This was an action to recover 300& for money lent, and the circumstances were of ap!snlialeksracter. Mr. Serjeant Pony and' Mr. Holl appeared for the plaintiff and Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Butler Rigby for the defendant. The plaintiff had been a jeweller and dealer In articles of vertu, in Henrietta-street, Covent-garden, and the de fendant was a builder and timber merchant in Gnat Peter-street, Westminster. The parties had for years been on intimate terms, and during this time they were both married men. In July 1864, Mrs. Wells was divorced from her husband for adultery with Mr. Hudson. About the same time Mrs. Hudson died, and since then Mr. Hud son had married Mrs. Wells. Mr. Wells said—ln 1861 my wife became entitled to • legacy of 1,0001. stock, and I received 8881. Is. 9d. on ac count of the legacy. A portion of that I applied for the purposes of my business, and 4001 . I placed on deposit at the London and West minster Bank. After this my wife constantly importuned me to let her handle some of the money, and she rendered m house uncomfortable. I drew out the 400/. and gave it to per. She put it into her bosom and said, " I will take care of thii." On the 7th Novem ber, 1861, whilst the defendant was present, she said, " I have 1001. here (she had spent 1001.) what shall I do with it ?" lie said, " Why don't yon let your husband have it?" She "No, I will it about with me, and do as I like with it." The defendant said, " Then, you bad better let me have it, and I will allow you 5 per cent. for it." She pulled the money out of her bosom, and handed it to him. He gave her an I 0 U for it. She said, " I should like something else as security." He said, " What will you have?" and she said, " I will have the lease of that house that Wells bought in for you the other day." The lease was handed over, and I received a cheque for 151. in advance for interest. In November, 1862, I received ano ther cheque for the interest in advance, and soon after this I took proceedings in the Divorce Court. Cross-examined—l and Mrs. Wells lived together until the 22nd February, 1863. I never heard that early in February, 1863, my wife received the principal money from the defendant. Mr. Hawkins said that his came was that the loan had been repaid, and he called the following witnesses : Mrs. Hudson mid—l was formerly Mrs. Wells. In Feb ruary, 1863, I received from Mr. Hudson this cheque for 2891. This was for the money which had been lent, less 111. for interest which had been paid in excess in advance. I cashed the cheque, and received bank notes for it. Cross-examined—l decline to say when I first became intimate with Mr. Hudson ; it has been answered else where. Mr. Blidaon—l paid the cheque to the Ise witness, in consequence of receiving a note from her in these terms : " January 31, 1863. —Dear Sir,—lf it is convenient to let me have the money you have of mine, I should feel obliged; and deduct the amount of interest, prepaid, from it. I will give you your securi t ies back at the same time." Mi 7 .ison's pase-book was sico produoed to show that the cheque had been paid. The witness, in cross-examination, declined to say whether at the time the cheque was handed over he had committed adultery' with Mrs. Wells. Mr. Juirtioe Ryles said that, in his opinion, the wife was not the agent of her husband to receive the debt and hand back the securities. The jury expressed a similar opinion ' and they also said that they were not satisfied that there had been any real payment. A verdict was thereupon entered for the plaintiff ; but Mr. Hawkins tendered a bill of exceptions to the ruling of his lordship. COURT OF BANIERUPTCY.--JuLy 2. (Before Mr. Comminioner Ooulburn.) IN RN W. BOOM -SENTENCE OF INPRIRORNINT. _ .... The bankrupt was formerly a butcher, of Kentish-town, since out of business. He applied for his order of dis charge from debts of 4951. Mr. Sykes appeared for the official assignee, and Mr. E. Reed for the bankrupt. Mr. Bagley opposed for a creditor, Mr. Eightley, solici tor, of Haverstock-hill, from whom the bankrupt had ob tained en advance of money for the purpose of satisfying a judgment, on the representation that his property was unincumbered. It turned out that it had been made over by bill of sale to his brother, who took possession three days before the bankruptcy. His Honour said this was one of the worst cases that had come before him, and sentenced the bankrupt to im prisonment in Whiteeross-street Prison for three months and twenty-one days ; the order not to issue till the expi ration of the twenty-one days. THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-HOUSE. George Lam', • middle-eked man of respectable appear ance, was charged before Mr. Alderman W. Lawrence, Y.P. (who sat for the Lord Mayor), with embezzling divers sums of money under somewhat peculiar circumstances. Mr. Hopwood appeared for the prosecution, and stated that until Saturday last the prisoner had been in the ad vice, as packer, of Ur. Julius Halle, a general merchant, carrying on his business at Nos. 53 and 54, Houndaditch, and in addition to his duty of packing and delivering the cases of goods to the carmen of the different carriers, he was entrusted with money to give gratuities at the rate of one penny per package to each carman at the end of the week for the cases they had severally taken away. This gratuity was given the men as an incentive to them to be regular in their calls daily for the packages. These gratuities were distributed on the Saturday, and on the Monday following it wee the duty of the prisoner to account for his disbursements in this respect to Miss Sarah Martin, who officiated as the keeper of the petty cash of the firm. It would seem that for some time past the prisoner had made false returns end thereby attained and secured to his own purposes small sums, vary ing from two shillings to twopence, and thus has defrauded his employer. Mr. Hopwood added that he should esta blish by evidence sufficient grounds fur asking for • remand to enable him to establish four distinct cans against the prisoner. Mr. George Ditcham, the general manager of the ro secutor's establishment, Miss Martin, and two carme n in the employ of Messrs. Pickford, were examined, and proved clearly two distinct charges against the prisoner. Mr. Alderman Lawrence, M.P., remanded the prisoner for • week, and refused to admit him to bail. Daniel Daniels was charged with stealing • watch, value 4L, the property of William Brisdon, from his person. It was disclosed by the evidence that the prosecutor, • jeweller and enameller residing in King-square, Goswell street, was waiting to proceed by steam to Harwich, and was on his way along Thames-street to the place d em barkation, when he was held by • gang of young fellows, of which the prisoner was the leader and the nearest to him, when he heard • snap or click, and immediately misse d his watch, and on looking down he found his guard chain, to which the bow of his watch remained attached, ban down loose. The prosecutor immediately collared the pri soner, and with the assistance of his father held him until the police came up, and the prisoner was secured and taken into custody. The evidence of the prosecutor, who deposed that he distinctly saw the hand of the prisoner leave his waistcoat pocket just as he heard the snap, was corroborated by the prosecutor's brother and two other witnesses. In reply to the Alderman, police-constable Smith, 806, who received the prisoner into custody, stated th at he had known the prisoner by sight as a frequenter of the neigh bourhood of the wharves and in Billingsgate-market. The prisoner, when apprehended, stated that be was in the ser vice of Messrs. Mamamara, the carriers, for six years, but on inquiry from Mews. Macnamara's foreman he had ascertained the prisoner had only been in their invite four months, and had been discharged with an indifferent cha racter. The prieoner wu remanded for inquiry. MA RYLEBONE. _ _ A respectably-dres;edlaa, aged i37named Joint Era, of 17, Horseferry-road, messenger, was charged with stealing three books, three sticks of sealing-wax, blacklead pencils, and a knife, from No. 6, Edgware-road, the same being the property of the Electric Telegraph Company. Sergeant Isaacson said he went esterday morning to the address of the prisoner, and to ld him he wanted him for breaking into the Edgware-road Telegraph-office, and attempting to set fire to the place. A portion of a paper screen in the office had been burnt. He said he did not break in, but concealed himself. He went in by the street door, which was open at about seven o'clock. After the office wee closed, he said he came up through the trap-door, and opening the drawers, he took the property mentioned. He then went through the pas. age, and about ten o'clock went into the street, closing the door after him. He declared he did not set fire to the place. Prisoner said he wanted his money, and they would not give it to him. Isaacson observed that prisoner also said to him that he had done it for spite for money owing to him, and the com pa would not settle. MMtilda Travers said the property belonged to the com pany, and was worth about five shillings. The prisoner had been in the company's employ for a few months. Mr. Mansfield inquired if be bad anything to say. Prisoner said he wanted his money. He had asked them properly for it, and was told be had no money to take. • Mr. Mansfield told him he was charged with stealing. Prisoner replied that he did not intend to keep the goods. He only held them as a lien for his money. Mr. Mansfield said he was very irregular in enforcing his claim. He must be committed for seven days.
