Th.., b. _us... ailjoitrned at a quarter :sast ~'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY, JULY B. IN the Ho, Nx of (303nm:is, at the morning sit ting, the ellANcl.l.l.olt of the ExcIiCQUER, ill reply 40 blr. W. E. Baxter, stated that it was intended when the English hill for the amendment of the re presentation was passed to move the second reading of the Scotch bill. The house would thereby as cent :u the principle of the franchise given in the bill mid the redistribution of seats, and the details could be stAtleil at a future time. The house then went into COnimittve on the Re presentation the People Bill, rest. Aug the dis cussion on Mr. Lowe's clause to give caintilat've votes in cases where the constituency returns throe members. Mr. LlWlnixr. opposed the clause, denying that it VI:14 itlicr expedient or necessary minorities should hi, represented ; and he obiecte.l to it fur ther hecauxe it was founded on tile principle of elms+ retwaientation. . . . Mr. observed that the leaders of the house could afford to be indifferent to this clause, because they were sure of obtaining seats. But other members were differently sitw,tecl, for many of them lose their seats altogether. He and many other young members feared the demoralising effect ..f being onmielled to make thentseh es popu lar vith the ',west class of voters. Mr, Mt.ll.lti ios entirely concurred in the princi ple of this clause, and a clause which he had him self liven notice of was only to establish another mode of carrying it out. Be held it t•. be a settled axiom that the majority should rule, b•t that the minority should have a hearing. Mr. Beach thought the proposition was open to only one objection, that it would place a rather insignificant minority in a superior position to a majority. Nevertheless ho thought it ought to be adopted, and not only for constituencies with three but for those with two members. Kir K. Comder: observed that the foundation of the argument was that the minority of the new oinstituencies were more likely to be right than the majority. The principle of the constitution was that oommun i ties should be represented, but the effect of this proposition would be that a minority of one-th;rdfplus one would be equal to a majority; and a constituency returning three members would have two members of one opin,,m, and would therefore practically have only one voice in a divi sion. Mr. Annentair oppmed the clause as establish ing an entirely new principle. if a class hail not sufficient energy to avert itself at elect..us he would not change the constitution to please them. Mr. FAweerr thought that our representative system ought to be such that all classes hi be represented by the best and most independent men, and as this clause would du something to wards that end, though it did not go as far as he should wish it, he should give it his support. Mr. Nawinsizsys quoted passages from Do Toejueville, showing the dangers of democracy, and ho tendered his thanks to Mr. Lowe for hav ing brought forward this proposition, which he considered calculated in some degree to avert those evils. Mr. Barenr observed that Mr. Lowe was quite consistent in making this proposition, but he was very much surprised that any member on that aide of the house, and especially the hon. member for Brighton, who had made declarations in favour of democracy front which he should shrink, should support it. He found a great disposition in favour of new-ftutgled propositions in some minds. He had no sympathy with them—he never had. He hail al ways in viteti the house to march along the ancient lines of the constitution, and in this measure the house had hitherto marched along those lines. Mr. Lowe had spoken of this proposition being to save the country from the ruin that this measure was to bring on the country. Ho might as well abstract a snowball from a falling avalanche with a view to stop its progress. He regarded this as a monstrous proposition. Nothing was more calculated to de stroy all vitality in the electoral system and to pro duce a stagnation of a most unhealthy character in public affairs. Lord CRAM sown remarked that the monarchical principle was dead, the aristocratic principle they were sentencing to death, and the democratic principle was triumphant. They must make up their minds, if they would have one saw thing, that they must hove other new things to counteract it. Ho warned the house not to be deceived by the glamour of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The smaller boroughs would in a future parliament be disfranchised, and the seats would go to the larger constituencies. This clause would enable the minority in those larger consti tuencies to bo adequately heard in the House of Commons, and though small in its immediate effect, it was great in its ultimate bearings. They only asked that when they were giving absolute political power to a class which had never yst had it, the ocher classes should not be utterly etfaeed, but should have at least the power of pleading their cause in the face of those oho would be their Boasters. Mr. J. S. MILL said it appeared to him that all persons should have power in that house in pro portion to the power that they exercised out of the house. The other principle on which he supported the clause was that he wished the majority to govern. But if they eliminated the minority out of the house, and then theyeliminated the minority in the house, the minority out of the house and the minority in the house might be greater than the majority out of the house. What they wanted to De represented was intelligence. If a member re presented a constituency two-thirds of which wore liberals and one-third conservatives, it was a false hood for him to say that he represented the whole intelligence of the borough. He was anxious that it should not get abroad that this was a conserva tive proposition. The reason why it was said to be in favour of the conservatives was that it wax really in favour of those who would be the weakest. Mr. HISNLEY pointed out that this proposition would not apply to more than about twelve con stituencies. and what was gained in the boroughs would probably be lost in the counties, and it would therefore not have any appreciable effect. Before they adopted a new principle they ought to he /Satisfied that it would havo a beneficial effect. The CHANcELLoicof the Eseneunsa said nothing could offer a greater contrast than the largeness of the principle involved in this clause and the small ness of its application. If it were a good principle it should be applied furthur. But if it were applied to the constituencies with two members, members of opposite political opinions would be returned by sub, and the result would be that the government would be in the hands of the members for Scot land, assisted by some of those for Wales. Another result would be to produce • complete Ay :nation in the representation, for they . 117 / 4 " ..iftip.

They were Eng!ishmen elm had been born and had lived under the law and manners and custoins of the country. He ebjeeted to these bugbears being made the foentlation for new legislation, which was to change the character of the constituf of this coma ry. Sir 6. Or e , :pressed himself in favour of Mr. Morrison'4 amendment, which was to give every voter, not throe. but two cumulative votes. Mr. Lou r. rep!ied ; and, on a division, the clause wa• rejected by 314 to 173. Further pro;,, , reas with the bill was then post poned. and, it being near seven o'clock, the sitting was suspended. . _ . At the evening sitting, on the order for going into supply, several subjects were discusted, one being the Irish peerage, respecting which an ad dress was moved by Sir C. O'LimutEx,pmying Fer Majesty not to create more Irish peers, but Lord NAAS opposing it, the motion was withdrawn. Sir e..l:or.i:se it , called attention to the recent persecution of the Jews of Roumania. Lord STANLEY said the latest intelligence on the subject was received this morning. Consul Green informed them that Mr. Simpson, the consul at Jassy, had communicated with the Prince Hoepo dar, and had received an assurance that the abuses complained of would be put a stop to. Another subject that was discussed was the rank, pay, and position of the medical officers of the army, which was brought forward by Mr. SYSAN, who moved that it was desirable that the recommendations of the committee in reference thereto should be carried out ; but after some ob servations front Sir J. PatutioroN, who stated that several of the recommendations of the committee had been carried out, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. TATtAnt called attention to the conviction of two men for poaching by the Salisbury bench of magistrates in March last, who were convicted, as he alleged, on the false evidence of a gamekeeper, of poaching, against evidence showing the inno cence of the prisoners. In the course of his speech he said • It appeared that en the With March last a game keeper named Pilgrim saw three men running away up • hill from a coppice, and he swore that Henry Pulford and Mark Welatead were two of them, but his testimony was the only evidence apdast them. On the other hand, it was sworn by the fat he r of one that his son was sleeping in the same room with him at the time, and the father and mother of the other deposed that , he was sleeping in the pile room with them. The woman was a remark calhic ientious witness. She deposed that she slept as that night, but she could positively testify that the er was in bed at 9 o'clock OL at night and at 5 o'clock in the morning. Stephen Deer swore that lie saw two men running away, and that the two men taken up were not those he saw running away. They had, therefore, the assertion of the gamekeeper on the one side, and on the other three witnesses swearing in direct cont radiction. One would have supposed that if the balance of evidence was not in :avour of the prisoner, yet if there was a doubt the plainer would have had the benefit of it. (Hem., hear.) But Things bad begun make stroug themselves by W. Things were indeed bad begun for those poor men when country gentlemen t ntered that court and took their meats on the bench against men who in point of fact were offenders against them. Ard the thing that was bed begun made strong itself by ill, becateas it predisposed the magistrates to weigh in a false scale the evidence pro duced before them, and to viola.e the first principle of English law, that n man was to be held innoceut till he was found guilty. (Cheers.) Fulton' was con demned to six weeks' imprisonment because his pre vious character was absolutely irreproachable, and Welstead was sentenced to three months' because he hail been convicted before. The magistrates received as gospel truth the evidence of Pilgrim's gamekeeper. The refused even to cross -e xamine him, and although they did not go so far as to chatae the woman by implication with perjury, they intimated that she possibly might have been mistaken, and that although she saw her son in the bed room at 9 and at 5, yet in the interval he ought have gone out when she was asleep and done his little bit of poaching. (A laugh.) If they bad taken the trouble to cross examine Pilgrim's gamekeeper, they would have found that he deposed to seeing the men at • quarter to 5. Either, then, the men were innocent and the gamekeeper had made a mistake, or the father and mother had perjured them selves. But Pilgrim's gamekeeper was not altogether an irreproachable witness, for on a previous occasion there had been a conviction on his evidence, in which he bad been proved to be wrong ; and singularly enough the clerk of the magistrates; urged that in his favour, because he said that having made arch a mistake once before, he would he likely to be more careful on a future occasion. (Laughter.) If that was the idea of justice these persons entertained one could not hut be filled with admiration at the entire harmony and homogeneity which characterised all the sur rounding@ of this case, both with respect to the magistrates and their clerk. As was the magistrate so was the clerk, and as was the clerk so was the only witness. Pilgrim's gamekeeper, indeed, said that he had another witness, but when asked why he did not bring him for ward, ho said, "Oh, the magistrates would be satisfied with his word ;" and so the clerk said to Mr. Payne. " If you are dissatisfied with the conviction appeal to the Home Secretary ; he will refer to the magistrates, and the nimistssteswill report;" implying that their report would end the whole matter, and the inference being that the clerk would put the reply into his pocket, and they would hear no more of it. But while the magis. orates and the clerk affected to believe the men guilty, all the neighbourhood knew they were innocent —(oh, oh)—and they knew it for the reason that they were perfectlyzernielust of who bad committed the offence. (Cries of No, no.") Mr. Payne said that he did not wil lingly interfere in the mater, but it was only due to justice and to his own sense of self-respect to state, that for some time he had heard unpleasant rumours, but hav ing implicit confidence in the administration of justice, he was at last forced to do as he had. In consequence of his inquiries lie had been pat in communication with the real culprits, and from the inquiries be made of them he was thoroughly convinced that George and Mary Wel stead were thoroughly trustworthy witnesses, and more over the men in question had confessed that they were the real offenders. These facts being brought to the at tention of the magistrates, one would naturally suppose that they hastened to do the unfortunate imprisoned men jastioe, and that the post would not be quick enough, and their only anxiety would be whether or not they would not resort to the telegraph. Mr. Payne took the man who reads the confession before Mr. Hinckman, the committing magistrate ; he coo , leased himself to be the real offender, and showed his knowledge of the other. This offender was Stephen Deer, who swore that the prisoners were not the men, but also swore falsely that he did not know who the real offenders I were. Mr. Payne naturally thought that the magistrates I would have done the men justice, and have applied to the Home-office to release them from prison, but to his cur prise, on the 2iith of May be received a letter from Mr. Hinck man that ho had heard from Lord Folkea tore, and that after a careful consideration of the evidence and other wise, they must decline taking any further steps in the matter. The house would observe that those magi strates who sit on the bench to administer justice supple ment the evidence by the words " and otherwise." Did that " otherwise," which apparently weighed so strongly in the consideration they gave to this case, mean vague rumour, or evidence that might have been called. Ile be lieved that it would be found to mean that a man named Sherwood saw two persons running away, attempting to disguise themselves, that he recognised one of them as Ful ford, hut could not recognise the other, and he it was who told Pilgrim's gamekeeper that he thought he was not far wrong. it turned oat afterwards that these MOD were 1 Stephen Deer and Charles Moody, and Moody being a re- 1 workably little man, when that description was given to the gamekeeper he rushed at once to the conclusion that it must be Welted, because he also was a little man. Well, notwithetauding that all this evidence was procured 1 and forwarded to th e Home Secretory, he declined ! to interfere in the matter, and perhaps he would tell the house why he did so. (Hear, heir.) He (Mr. Taylor) was inclined to think that either his notion of evidence was as peculiar a, that of the magis trates, or 1:tot he had nut read it at all—(hear, Leer)—but had left the matter to some clerk, who bad shelved it, thus handing over the people of this country into the hands of the county magistracy. (Hear, beer.) It WAS somewhere before the 29th of May that Mr. Payne wrote to the magistrates, and afterwards sent the information to the Home Secretary, stating that this unhappy case never stood upon more than one leg, and now that the evidence of the gamekeeper had broken down it had no leg left at all. The people of the neighbourhood were quite of that opinion, for a petition signed by 201). and headed by the ehurehwaniens. was pre- 1••••ated to the hint.r on the enhject. and be informed the I tome Secretsry that in point of [Jet the case ltd broken down shamefully. Nine days ..!ter that orders served that Wi! dad w • a to be released. N...v tb:a mitt Weased because be was not guilty, and Hr. Payne thought that at least the ju dice would be done of releasing his bail from responsibility, end accordingly on the 18th of Julie lie wrote to tae Home ri•;:creteity stating that it was hard enough upon the nor man to have 'offered an unjust imprisoument, but it would be still harder on him if his bail were not released ; but I it was almost incredible that no answer whatever had • been received to that application. They sometimes heard j it charged against reformers that they set class against clan ; but was there ever a case more likely to art the pea santry against the squirearchy ? Let hen. member* try to bridge over the abyss that separated them front that class --put themselvea to their position, and imagine what would be their feelings if subjected to such injustice. (Hear, hear.) He was not quite sure whether, under such laws as our game laws, they would not find themselves ani mated by the spirit of wild justice which revenge had by a high authority been defined to be. What moat be the seeding of hope'ess insecurity among the people of this neighbourhood, nit one of whom was aura that they might not be made the victim of some serviceable resod anxious to procure a conviction which he koaw would be pleasant to his master, and whose oath would be held to weigh more than any number of witnesses that they could bring— (cheers) — especially when the charge was knocking over a hare which happened to be nibbling his cabbages, crossing the road, or nibbling on his master's pasture. It was not always the cue that a person charged was able to bring irrefraga . ble proof of his innocence, and it was well Iknown that there were hundreds of such cases in England in the course of a year. (No, no.) He said that it was a moat dangerous thing to sane ! tion the commission of such reckless injustice, and were it I not that the peasantry of England were good-natured and mild to an extmonlinery degree, they would with one voice demand that it should he placed out of the power of the ma),istracy to inflict such gross injustice on their Icountrymen. (Cheers.) The following discussion then ensued : Mr. MARSH denied that there were hundreds of these cases occurring every year. Of the two magistrates who had tried this case one was no game preserver, the other was Lord Folkestone, KM= who was entirely above sus picion. He believed that the verdict of these magistrates was • correct oae. (Ironical Shears.) One of the w;- news had made two contradictory statements before the magistrates, • fact which was not quite consistent with the theory o f his veracity. Mr. HARDY said that the hon. member for Leicester had adopted • course which he (Mr. Hardy) hoped would never be repeated in that house. No doubt the hon. mem ber believed that all honour and public virtue would die with him. The hon. member had spoken of gentlemen doing their duty on the bench as men capable of convict ing two persons against whom there was no evidence, or upon evidence which they knew to be false, merely because that eviderce was gives bt • gamekeeper. The honounible member should know that mistakes occurred in administering every law as well as the game laws. He (Mr. Hardy) disdained what the hon. member had said of himself. He believed that the magistrates were perfectly disinterested, and that they decided after careful investigation, but he thought there were SOM. doubts about the case, and that therefore it was his duty to release the men. What had taken place Three men were out poaching—the hon. member himself admitted that -- they were sworn to by the witness Pilgrim, and one of them remained six weeks in prison simply because no application was made to the Home-office. It appeared, therefore, that that man (Henry Fulford) submitted to his fate without remonstrance, and it should be remembered also that they might have appealed to quarter sessions. (Hear.) Krowing the difficulties of a case when men were cot ' brought face to face, he had ordered the release of the men, and also that their bail should Le got rid of. If that not been done, it was not the fault of the Home office. This case had in the first instance been taken up by the hon. and learned member for Richmond—why was it now entrua ed to the hon. member for Leicester! (Ironical cheers.) The hon. and learned member for Rich mond hail spoken of the magistrates in the enlogietic terms which had been applied to those gentlemen by the hon. member for Salisbury. Ile (Mr. Hardy) did not mean to say that a mistake had not been committed, bet mistakes were committed in other cases as well as thou of infractions of the game laws. He remembered a case in which some men were convicted on the evidence of one nisin,although four of them hail attempted to prove an alibi. On the investigation it was found that the man hail bees right in every cue, and the ju y, seeing the men face to face, believed the one man in preference to the twenty or twenty-five who came to prove the different alibis. If the house were to regard evidence as the hon. member for Leicester seemed inclined to do, according to the num ber of the witnesses, and not to the weight of their testimony, they would be likely to arrive at most unjust decisions. (Hear, hear.) The hon. mem ber had said that one of the magistrates bad spoken of the "evidence and otherwise." The whole of the evidence the hon. member had brought forward was taken from the father and mother of one of the defendants, and the " otherwise" evidence was not that given on oath before the magistrates, but that which was subsequently scat to the Home-office. He (Mr. Hardy) believed the decision was honestly and fairly given, because the magistrates be lieved the evidence before them ; nor was it the duty of the magistrates to enter into such a cross-examination as the bun. memberfor Leicester supposed. The hon. member's idea of cross-examination was en extraordinary one. lie had said the witness Pilgrim was not cross-examined as to what Stephen Deer had said about seeing some man running away • mile off. It would have been • most extraordinary thing to have salted Pilgrim about what Stephen Deer hail seen a mile off. Mr. TAYLOR said what he had stated was that Pilgrim ought to have been cross-examined as to when and where he saw the three men running away. Mr. HARDY said the mother had sworn that her son was in bed about a o'clock, and the keeper had said he saw the man between 4 and 5 o'clock between one and two miles from the cottage in which he lived. The magistrates knowing bow indefinite evidence as to time frequently was, believed from the evidence before them that there was time for the man to have got from where the game keeper saw him to the house where he lived, at the hour stated, without imputing perjury to the father or mother. That there was poaching waa clear, and that certain persons ran away was clear, and he must say that nothing could have convinced him more than the manner in which this case had been brought before the house of the impropriety of bringing up such matters on en appeal where the witnesses could not be seen, and where the evidence they had given could not be tested. After the tone and spirit of the speech that had been made by the hon. member for Leicester, he must say that lie never heard any one attempt to enter upon • ju dicial investigation in so unjudicial a noon ee. (Hear.) The hon. gentleman had treated the magistra'eri in this case worse than the magistrates would have treated any witness who had been known to have perjuied himself on a former occasion, and had supposed that because the case was one of poaching the magistrates had dealt with it in a different manner to that in which they would have treated any other case. He might just as well have said that in any ordinary case of robbery magistrates had so deep an inte rest in protecting their neighbours' property that they would believe any charge that was brought before them. One of the magistrates, it appeared, was not a game pre server, and he ought at least to be regarded as a disinte rested person. However, it was not for him (Mr. Hardy) to defend the magistrates. He firmly believed that they acted on their sense of what was right, believing the evi dence brought before them. (Cheers.) Mr. MILL had never heard a more unjustifiable attack upon a member than that just made upou his hon. friend the member for Leicester toy so high a functionary as the Home Secretary. (Cries of "Oh, oh" from the ministe rial side of the house.) The right hon. gentleman had not denied • single statement of the hon. member. (Hear, hear.) The right hon. gentleman said the mag istrates be lieved the evidence given bef ore them t o . be true ; but the tendency of magistrates was always to believe the evidence of gamekeepers. (Oh, oh.) Whether that was so or not, it was the general opinion, and this was an extraordinary and emphatic corroboration of that opinion. It seemed that Pilgrim, on whose evi deuce these persons were convicted, bad before made an unfortunate mistake as to identity; and after the self -crinii- ' nation of the persons who had been mentioned, a duty was imposed upon the magistrates to sift the case to the very bottom. It was said that the men might have appealed to the quarter sessions, but were the unfortunate labouring classes in the rural districts likely to appeal from magistrates to magistrates! (Hear, hear.) Were they not infinitely too much afraid and tooi much cowed ? (" Oh, oh.") The only reason given against the motion was that these magistrates were very honourable men ; but one of them was likely, in consequence of his judicial mind, to be appointed chairman of quarter session., in which cap flea' , he would have the most important judicial functions to discharge. They might he honourable men ; but honourable men were sometimes singularly pre bediced, singularly unjudicial, and singularly di s p ose d t o blieve in the sufficiency of evidence in a particular kind of charges. Illear, hear.) Mr. NEATE thought that the hon. member for Leicester in bringing forward whet he believed to be a gross case of magisterial 'misdeeds, had been rebuked by the Home Secretary in a tone which ought not properly to have been adopted. iHear, hear.) Sir M. BEACH bore testimony to the character and position of the two magistrates, and observed that the style in which the hon. member for Leicester brought for ward the question reflected greater discredit upon himself than upon those gentlemen. (Hear, hear.) 1 Mr. W. E. FottsTEß said that as there appeared to be noder.ositionsand no record of the grounds upon which the men were convicted, he should ask as an ad di tion to the motion, that the correspondence which had taken place between the magistrates and the Horne.office should be produced. The risht hon. gentleman h a d n o r i g ht t o re ease the men and forgive them their bail, unless justice had miscarried, and if it had, the case was a proper one to bring before the house. (Hear, bear.) Mr. A. SEYMOUR having at for many years as a Wilts magistrate expressed his surprise that no depositions or notes were taken in this ease. If none had been token by the clerk to the masistrates, all be could say was that the practice ene; most reprehenrible. He was eeginainted with huth the inagietrit , ,, and he belie% ed they were men of high honour. who wonbi not convict any wan unleas they were natialiNl of his Mr. HARDY obeerve.l that olthonli there were no depositions, tits ordinary notes in swill miss were taken yAb• amitiatrates. _ _ _ HINiiAIRD skid that these men had huffered puuishment at the hands of the magistrate+ who were evidently interested parties. (Oh, oh.) There could be no doubt the gentry and magistrates in this county were game preservers, but they held in Scotland that it was inexpedient that game preservers should adjudicate in CRAM of this kind, and that they should be dealt with by the sheriffs. Mr. HENLEY did not think that the hon. member rer Leicester had introduced the Aubject in a moderate way, for although he said there were a hundred instances of the same kind, he did not venture to adduce any evidence in proof of that assertion. He thought he never heard a case which showed more than this how unfit the House of Commons was to consider. Thu hon. member fur We,tmin■ter had gone about the city at meetings, and had denounced the conduct of the magistrates, and now he came to sit in judgment upon it. Why did not the men appeal? If they had done so the case would have been fully heard in the presence of an intelligent bar, and justice would have been dens to the men. He quite agreed with what the Home Secretary bad said upon the subject. Lord ELCHO thought the tone taken by the lion. mem. ber for Leicester was open to censure, and the cheers which followed the remarks of the Home Secretary showed that. Mr. CHILDERS, having listened to the debate, was surprised at the amount of heat crewed. The ease was a plain and simple one. These two men had been con victed of this offence upon very insufficient eviderce, at least upon very slender evidence, and the hon. member fo- Leicester had done his duty in bringing it before the house. The house ought not to refuse the production of the papersandcorrespondence, which were public property, and he would suggest an alteration of the motion to that eject. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought it might appear from the tone of the debate that the Home Secretary bad imprisoned some of her Majesty's subjects; but he had recommended the exercise of the prerogative of mercy. That that should be complained of was most surprising. Documents had been moved for which did not exist ; and as to the correspondence, why the Home Secretary was constantly corresponding with magistrates, and it was utterly impossible to assent to the production of it. -- Ultimately a division was taken on the motion that the depositions be laid on the table, which was negatived by 70 to 31. The house then adjourned at twenty minutes to two o'clock.

(Before Kr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN CC O. WYATT. The bankrupt, who was described as formerly of 7, Lan caster.terrace, Hyde-park-gardens, architect and builder, since of Brighton and elsewhere, and now out of business, came up for examination and discharge. Mr. Smith, a solicitor, the assignee in person, did not oppose ; Mr. Bagley was counsel for the bankrupt ; Mr. Lucas, for a creditor, opposed. It appeared from the report of Mr. Graham, the official assignee, that on the 29th February, 1864, the bankrupt executed a deed of assignment, under which property valued at over 100,0001. passed to the trustee,. for the benefit of the creditors. The debts were now returned in the accounts at 111,1591., the whole of which, with the exception of about 2971., had been incurred prior to the date of the deed. The bankrupt was the nephew of the late Mr. P.

After hearing the parties, His Honour said that the bankrupt must furnish cash and deficiency accounts for twelve months prior to the date of the deed, and he directed an adjournment for the purpose.

In this report Mr. T. Connolly, the person now present on behalf of the trades' committee, is said to have spoken at that meeting of dele gates, and to have used these words : "What could be ex pected from • town like Sheffield, which returned such a man as Mr. Roebuck as its representative ?" After some conversation, the chairman requested Mr. Connolly to retire while the commissioners considered the waster brought before them. On being readmitted Mr. Connolly was asked to sign • document addressed to Mr. Roebuck, stating that the report in the Times was not correct, and that he regretted being so much misrepresented.

THE CHARGE OF NEGLECTING A CHILD. —A t the Surrey Sessions yesterday, Henry Blucher Ryland, 54, a cooper, and Hannah Ryland, 41, his wife, surrendered to their hail to Ramer an indictment charging them with unlawfully neglecting to provide sufficient food and other necessaries for the infant child of the said Henry Blucher Ryland, named George Freddy Ryland. Mr. Lilley prose cuted, and Mr. Thompson appeared for the prisoners. This was the case already given in our polioe reports, in which the prisoners were accused of neglecting the child by supplying it with insufficient food, and by keeping it in a washhouse unfit to be used as a human habitation. The jury consulted about a quarter of an hour, when the foreman gave in a verdict of Guilty against the male prisoner, and acquitted the female upon the objections to the counts taken by the counsel for the defence, via., that as stepmother she was not liable. Mr. Thompson then asked for a case to be submitted to a superior court, which, after a slight discussion, the bench granted. The prisoner, upon the applicationof Mr. Thompson, was then admitted to bail upon an increased amount.
