This wean action for a files and fraudulent representa tion as to the solvency of a person named Watson, tried before Mr. Baron Martin at Norwich, and in which • verdict passed for the defendant. The plaintiff, who was • cheeesmonger at Leicester, was induced to supply goods to Watson upon the strength of • letter which he received in reply to one of his own from the defendant, • groper at Yarmouth, stating that he be lieved Watson to be • trustworthy person. Watson shortly afterwards became bankrupt, and at the trial evidence was adduced to show that the de fendant at the time he wrote the letter knew that he was in the habit of getting goods on credit and selling them immediately afterwards considerably under cost price. A rule was obtained by Mr. O'Malley for • new trial, on the ground of the improper reception of evidence, and cause having been shown last term. the court reserved judgment. The court this morning delivered judgment. Dlr. Baron Bramwell was in favour of the rule being made absolute, but the other three j udg es were of opinion that no ground bad been shown for s endi ng down the case Ryan for trial, and, therefore, that the rule should be dischargacL Rule discharged accordingly.

This was the sitting appointed for making a call on the contributories in this unfortunate concern. Mr. Roxburgh appeared for the official liquidator, sod stated that Mr. Hutton, the accountant, had made an affidavit, which disclosed the following facts :-" Ist. I was appointed aocoamtant to meet the official liquidator in the natters of thelftiading-up of thin company Zed. I find the nominal capital of this company was 5 11,0001., divided into 50,000 shares of H. each. 3rd. That I have examined and made up the books and accounts of the above company to ascertain their &Ma, liabilities, and assets. 4th. I find that there hat seen deposited with the company by way of loan the following sums, that is to say : - From 3,485 persons who have deposited in the hands of the company soma varying from Id. to 51., 1.9131. Os. 9d. ; from 471 persons who have deposited sundry sums varying from 51. to 601., 8,9401. Oa 11d. ; from 29 persons who have deposited sundry sums varying from 601. to 1001., 2.2521. 3s. 101. ; from 99 persons who have deposited sums varying from 1001. to 2001... 4,0011. 13e. 9d. ; from 2 persons who have deposited same varying from 2006. and upwards, 4771. Bs. ; 4,016 persons who have deposited in the whole, 17,5841. 7s. 3d. sth. I find there is due to creditors of the company for Vd2supplied, and work and labour done as under am Lovett, printer, 791. 12s. ; White, for advertis ing, 611. 15e. 10d. ; balance. dee to country spats for commission and expenses, 2921. 11.. Bd.-4331. 19s. 6d.-making together 18,0181. 6s. 9d. 6th. I have also carefully examined the amount due by contributories of the company, and slew giving them credit for amounts paid upon their several and respective shares, I find that there is now due in respect of the mid call of It per share, the sum of 16,306/. 4s. 3d. 7th. From informa tion I have untamed in winding up the affairs of this com pany, I believe that many of the persona now settled on the list of contributories are unable to meet any call which may be made upon them in this matter, and that others of the said contrtbutories will be unable to pa y such call in full. Bth. I therefore estimate the said call of 16,3061. 4s. 2d. will only produce 6,5201. 17s. 6d. which said sum of 6,5201. Ils. 6d. being deducted from 18,0181.65. 9d., will leave a deficiency of 11,4971.95. 3d., and which said sum of 6,5201. 17s. 6d. is the only asset, of the company to meet its liabilities. 9th. 1 also find that the only securities or other same' belonging to the company are cer tain bills of exchange , which amount to the sum of 3,2641. 7s. 6d. ; but I coosider such Ulla to be of no value whatever, arid that I am informed and believe that V. 14..9d. are the only amounts received and come into the hands of the official liquidator or hie "elicitor, via., 11. 10s., received by Mears. Gibbs and Tucker, the solicitors to the official liquidator, and 11. 4s. 9d. received by the official liqMdator, being balance in the hands of the Unity Bank." Mr. Roxburgh-lf the whole amount of the call were paid, there would still be a deficiency. The Commissioner-When a person becomes a cootribu. tory in one of those schemes, he must calculate on paying all that is due, or acknowledge himself to be insolvent. Mr. Roxburgh-I propose that the call should be 11. per share. Mr. R. Cecil Austin appeared for several contributories. Mr. Cadman., on behalf of Mr. Trasak and other de positors, did not object to the call being made, but milt= had been negotiating with the managers of the National Savings Bank, who were wining to pay the depositors Is. in the pound on the amount. due to them, and give them paid-up shares for the remaining 15s. The arrangement had beep worded to by depositors of 14,0001. out of the 18,0001. He therefore asked that payment of the call might not be enforced for two or three months, In order to give the parties the opportunity of carrying out this arrange ment, which would be beneficial for all parties. If the call were enforced the creditors would not get above 6.. Bd. in the pound, and it would produce a frightful amount of misery amongst the poor contributories. He appeared for 7-9ths of the creditors. Mr. Roxburgh said they were not creditor', bat contribu tories. Mr. Cracknell said that many of them were both. His Honour.- Ido not like the name of paid-up shares. Mr. Roxburgh.- It does not look healthy. (Laughter.) This proposal wee; broached a year ago, but has not been carried out. Mr. Cracknell said the negotiation had bees going on for some time, and he only asked that payment of the call might be suspended for a reasonable time to see whether the requisite proportion of creditors would come in. He did not object to the call being made. The Gommissamer-Does anyone object to the call being made? No answer was made. r 7 L — Then the wIl of U. per 'hare is Idr: Roxburgh—The call will be for 11. per share; but those who have paid 5.. on their shares will only have to pay 15s. But in mercy to them, I hope you will not listen to anything like delay, which might involve them in the winding.up of another limited company. I hope you will follow the rule in Chancery, and make the call pay able in three weeks from this time ; and if any cootn batory can show reasonable cause for not paying the call at that time, the official liquidator will be prepared to listen to him. I propose that the call be made payable this day month—that is giving a week longer than as usually given. Mr. Cracknell proposed that two mouths should be al lowed. _ _ --- The Commissioner said that the proposal ought to be before him in writing. Mr. Cannes, the official assignee, said that eight or nine months had been expended, and practioally nothing had been done. The COOllllll6l to the creditor& r—Practically not a sixpence has come Mr. Roxburgh—And never will. (A laugh.) Mr. Cracknell—l beg pardon, a great deal has been done. We have got the assent of seven-ninths of the depositors to the amount of 14,000/., and all they ask is that you will suspend the payment of the call for • mouth more than my friend proposes. If I can obtain the assent of the other 2.9ths they will all be paid, and it will be perfectly unneces• eery to enforce paymeot of this all• The Commissioner—Row can I interfere to enforce the aarry out of such an agreement Mr. Cracknell—We do not ask you to enforce or confirm it, but merely to suspend payment of the calL The Commissioner—That doe* seem a reasonable proposi tion. You say you have got the anent of seven-moths of the depositors. Mr. Crackoell—Yes seven-ninths of the depositors have executed the deed, and moat of the others are ready to do so. Osumi—The deed is dated the 19th October hat, eight months ago ; sod, the deed not 'using carried oat, ite provisions would expire in three months. Mr. Cracknell—The time has been extended. The Commiasioaer—Suppose I defer payment of the cell for two months, in it likely t. at the arrangement will then be carried oat ? DZinaa --- LI should think it would be imporible. They have to induce people to take 17,000 shares in this new company. The depositors cannot know what they axe signing. They are incurring a fearful responsibility. Mr. Doric—They are incurring no responsibility at all. Mr. Caner —I am here to protect the depositors. Mr. Crook:we—We don't ask for protection from the court. All we ask is, that the court will give us another month before enforciog payment of the cell. The Coromiesioner—l am rather inclined to concede this request, and adjourn the call for another month. Dr eamier in court can only increase the expense to the demo. sitars ; and if there be any restorable probability of carry ing out this arrangement I should be inclined to accede to the application. Mr. Doris, on behalf of other depositors, also supported the application. The number of depositors who had taped the deed of arrangement sufficiently attested the boos Ada of the propose/. Many of them were Mawr( people earning lfe. to 1/. a week. The Oornmisioner—The full amount of the call is only 11. Mr. Doria—llut I need not tell coo that it is a difics with such persons to cave a shilling, much mom a pound. The creditors bellowed that if the winding up they would not get oar farthing of their debts ; ~=dr, this arrangement they would get se. in the pound. Mr. Brongh and Mr. Manna also supported the application. The made. TEE EXPRESS, SATUILDAY EVEN [NG, JUNE 7, 1862. Mr. Roxburgh said that many of those who had signed the deed did not know what they were signing. A Contributory—Nomense ! You are libelling the poor men. Mr. Roxburgh said this company bad taken 18,0001. of the poor depositors, and it was now sought to entangle them in a precisely similar scheme, which would probably end in the same way. Theft limited companies were a mockery, a delusion, and a snare. The proposal now before the court bad originated before the winding-up order was made ; the petition had stood over for some time to 800 if the arrangement could bs carried out ; and there was no doubt that if the scheme was a bene ficial one for the depositors it would be gladly accepted by the official liquidator. The Commissioner—lf an offer of that kind is made, and the parties choose to accept it out of court, what have I to do with it' Mr. Roxburgh—Nothing more that this—you are asked to defer payment of the cell in consequence. My friend says he has got the assent of 7-91hs of the depositors ; but out of 4,016, only 430 have signed this agreement. Some are holders of large numbers of shares-1,000 or 1,500 ; their object is to stave off payment as tom as pos sible ; but I 'submit that they ought to be made to pay as speedily as possible, and that the poor contributories should not be dragged out of one quagmire into another. The Commissioner—lt is making confusion worse con founded. I shall make the call as asked for. Mr. Crscknell—Will you not give the additional time The Commissioner—No. If you can carry out your sr- 141 rangementa in the interval, well and good ; payment of the r „.. call will not then be necessary. But the winding up of this og company mast proceed is the usual way. Ultimately an ardor was pronounced, making the call IS payable on the 7th al July. M THE POLICE COURTS. lei (THIS DAY.) I 6 WORSHIMSTREET. • DASTARDLY PILLOW. Meyer Jacobs, a yaw( German Jew, was charged before S. - . Mr. Leigh with violently smashing Jane Mom, a pretty girl, 16 years of age. Mr. Maynard, from Mr. Beard's office, attended in sup- s port of the complaint, and from his statement, which was sa borne oat by the injured girl and • witness, it appeared that she we. in the employ of a tailor lk in Fortelciet, Spitalfields, who had numerous e it hands engaged at the stitching machines ; that on s e the 29th of May last she was asking some person e t : in the workshop for a coat to finish off, when the defendant, who is foreman there, desired her to go instantly to her lie machine ; that she told him the occasion of her absence ilk from it, which be appeared to consider unsatisfactory, and repeated his order, edam "If you do not. I'll throw the a . machine 'Apia ;" that she then remarked, " Yon dare not do so ;" upon which he seized her by ow arm and se. twisted it, at the same time striking her five or six blows au 1148 the bosom with his fist. the consequence of which was that h. she fell to the floor, had a fit, end became afterwards • 16 ., patient at the Loodo• Hospital. A certificate from Mr. lb Dyte, house-surgery there, showed that complainant had t o suffered from contusions in thebrauts and arm, but was not le in dan g er therefrom at present. Mr. Vann, for the defence, observed that although it was 14 ._ quite impeesible to justify the foreman's conduct, it was yet n. ianresaouable to suppose that he committed such violent" ri intentions* or without provocation. The fact was, the o k girl had slapped his hoe when he desired her to return to at the machine, and that act no doubt irritated him to lay his It. hands upon her. The contusions might have occurred from a subsequent struggle, and to a Iv certain extent have bees the result of accident. I t Defendant had been only four years in this country, three to of which he had passed in the service of his present masters. es Mr. Maynard entirely disproved that the complainant had le assaulted the foreman or been impertinent, and N. Mr. Leigh, with strong remarks upon the grossness of the outrage, infficted a fine of IN. and all oats, or, in default, six weeks' impriererasst. Defendant was looked up in default. at. AWFUL EXPLOSION WITH LOSS OF LIFE IN rt BISHOPSGATHSTREST.-(THIS DAY.) W _.....___ U At s few minutes before 9 as one of the large I ri. omnibus was passing in the middle of the broad street, and when in front of the house of Mr. Boor, &manufacturing tiVI chemist, Bishopagate.street, at the angle of Artillery-lane, K. the vehicle vu struck by some explosive substance. At the sat: . . same time the front of the building was blown si. out into the street, and almost simultaneously every t . room in the building wu in fumes. At that aa . time there were seven or eight if not nine persons in Mr. Boor's premises, Several made their appearance at .. . _ the different windows, when some men _ working at an opposite house in Bishopagste ran with a ladder, and rescued three three men; but they were so fearfully burned that they lO were obliged to be taken to the hospital. Conductor Shaw, conductor of the Royal Society's escape, mailed through the e fire in Mr. Finch's promisee, immediately opposite, and le brought out Mr. Frederick Finch and the servant maid. IM, Engines were set to work in an admirable manner, and 10 from the first the steam engine performed wooden, for the r e Sams were then raging in the premises of Mr. Finch, to Mrs. Goodvere, a butcher, in Artillery-lane, and of Mr. Browning, a provision storekeeper, No. 2, in the 93 same place. Whilst the firemen were actively engaged 2 a Nome that beggars description took place. Cap tain Shaw, the Duke of Sutherland, and a strong la body of the brave firemen, including Foremen Bridges and 11 1 Joseph Gerrard,and many other officers nearly lost their lives. is Of a sudden the whole of Mr. Boor's building, furniture, ..11 1 and other effects were burled to the ground ; sod had it re not been for the foresight of Captain Shaw the whole of tO those engaged must have perished. I ca It By 11 o'clock the fire was entirely extinguished, when the foremen commenced turning over the ruins to search for the 1 : bodies miming, but up U. 12 o'clock at noon not the vestige g of anyone had been found. A female, who was not found at lo' clock to-day. was sees at one of the 1 1 4 / windows, and by possibility might have escaped, but there Ol seems little doubt that the child named Ann Bordent, 18 months old, is beneath the embers. The names of the men In in the hospital are Seriarift, Spinks, Reach, Bald, and 1 1 1 Evans. 3 As to the cause of the explosion, not the least reliable fp" infonnAtion can at present be obtained. The losses will fall upoa the Mercantile, Royal, and several other ofiloaa. SOCIAL SCIZZICE CONGRESS.-(THIS DAY.) I C The First Department (Jurisprudence) was opened a this morning by its President, Sir FITZROY JULIA, whose address was an eloquent comment upon the constitution of Ng England, coupled with a strong condemnation of the VA mixed and confused state both of the statute book and of the common law, and an inquiry into the in possibility of the codification of either. He referred a s in complimentary terms to the labours of Mr. Napier (who was then present) in the cause of law reform, especially in 1 1 0 regard to the appointment of a minister of justice, and ex- y i n pressed a hope that that which the right hon. and learned Mt gentleman had so well begun, some at least of those who r e : were acquainted with his efforts in the House of Commons would have the good fortune to see carried out by the legal- Li lature. at _ _ Lord BROUGHAM complimented Sir Fiteroy Kelly upon 1 21 his able and isstructive address, sod observed that he only abstained from proposing a vote of thanks to their excellent la president, because be thought it more fitting that that tee- tos timony of respect and admiratiou should be given at the is last general meeting. Mr. A. PULLING then read a paper upon " Private Bill 8 1. Legialation." Its In the department of Education, over which Mr. James es ,. Heywood presided, in the absence of the Dean of St. mj Paul's, a paper ens read by Mr. E. K.

Mr. J. IL Luotow read a paper on the investigation of trade difference., in which he drew attention to the contrary !statements of employers and employed and expressed an opinion, for reasons he de tailed, that more credit should be given to the statements of the former than of the latter ; and Mr. HataisoN read a paper re the leek-oat of the =WOOS of London in 1861.62, calderas* the hoar system, sad defending the conduct of the masons in the strike.

If half the rumours current be true (says the Athenaeum) the game of "change seats" is about to be played in our theatres with considerable activity. It is reported that Mr. Boucicauls may succeed Mr. Harris in the management of the Princess's Theatre ; and that Mr. Palomar may take Mr. Boucicault's place at the Adelphi. Mr. and Mrs. Wigan have announced their "farewell" benefit at the St. James's Theatre on Wedges-' , day next Sall Waters Run Deep will be played on the omission, Mr. and Mn. Alfred Wipe re-appeasing in their original characters of John Mildmay and Mrs. Hector Stern hold. The Bengal Tiger will follow with Mr. and Mm. Wigan as Sir Paul Pagoda and Mies Yellowled. Places have been taken for the next representa tion of La Juice, at the Grand Opera, Paris, for 350 Germans, travelling in a body, on their way to visit the Exhibition of London. . . . An alteration has been made in the orders given for the Emperor Napoleon's journey to Auvergne and to the departments in the west of France. The journey was to have taken place after the Emperor's visit to Vichy —that is at the end of July ; it is now fixed for the be ginning of that month. It will last only four days. The Emperor will visit Clermont Ferrand, Riom, Hoven, sod Dooms. Re will pun one day, and sleep in each of these towns. He will return to Fontainebleau, and after a few days' rest there he will go beak to Vichy. At the late fire at Enschede, in Holland, not one of the pretended incombustible Iron safes resisted the effects cf the flames, all the papers and documents having been deetroyel, and the gold sad silver contained in them melted. The present liabilities of the Southern Confede racy are estimated to amount to 82 millions sterling. A bill has passed the American Congryss for compelling railroad companies to eater into contracts with the P'oet-offlos department for the conveyance of mails, the rate of compensation, in case of disagreement, to be settled by the Court of Claims.

Lord Evereley will succeed Lord Fortnum as the president of the society. Ms. BOND AND THE LONDON HOSPITAL& —MT. Bond, a gentleman well known in racing circles, has again renewed his munificent offer made to the stewards of the Jockey Club, in September, 1860, of contributing 1,000 guineas to the London Hospitals, providing the fortunate winners of the Derby and the Oaks will kindly consent to an allocation of 10 per cent. of their winnings ; but should 11 l be deemed excessive, Mr. Bond will be happy to add an amount equal to a deduction of 5 per cent. upon their stakes respectively.

About 25,0001. in gold was withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for exportation. The recent sup plies from America have also been taken for trans mission abroad.

The Liverpool cotton market yesterday was firm, with sales to the extent of 8,000 bales. With reference to the statement in the London journals of the 27th May, made by the Committee of Spanish Certificate holders, to the effect that Mr. Powles informed them that the Finance Minister was unable to bring forward a measure for the settlement of the debt this session, but would do so in October, the Corrapondencia de Espana (reputed to be O'Donnell's paper) states that " it is authorised to declare that not only has the Finance Minister no intention whatever of proposing to the Cortes any measure for the settle ment of the question of the English debt, but that he has so stated his views to every person who has spoken to him on the subject." A private letter says : "The deputies and ministers state definitely that nothing can be done at present with the Certificate question, and that it is absolutely necessary to prepare the public mind for it by the press • or, as one of the ministers told me, dear una ani;osfers' (create an atmos phere). They say Mr. Powles has entirely thrown the question back by his ill-advised way . of going about it ; he has now all the press against him The great mass of the Spanish people believe them selves ill-treated in the matter of the Certificates, and from ignorance consider that the government acted rightly. Very few even amongst the mem bers of the two houses understand the bearings of ' the case. Until this is changed no ministry could I bring the question forward." At the tenth ordinary meeting yesterday of the shareholders of the London Chartered Bank of Australia, the directors' report, recommending a dividend for the half-year of 4 per cent., free of in come tax, was unanimously adopted. The chair man, Mr. De Sells, remarked that the present report is the most satisfactory one yet laid before the proprietors.

Out of thii the directors have decla red a half-yearly dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, leaving 1,2121. to be added to the " rest."
