really a creditor for upwards of -100/. He referred to a ales decided by Lord llsosheld, where it had been held that money paid in error, and which the creditor would be entitled to recover at law, ought to returned by the arsignees. His Honour mid that ease bad been overruled by " Fitch v. Sutton " and other oases ; he therefore declined to inter fere, but left the creditor to his remedy at law. 1 RE W. Luxrusi). The bankrupt was • builder at Sutton, in Surrey. This was the adjourned sitting for examination and discharge. Debts, 9,00/., of which 1,6501. were unsecured. The pro perty was all in the hands of mortgagees, and was estimated to yield 2,2001. beyond their claims. Mr. Dowse supported ; Mr. Chamberlayne opposed for the assignees. The bankrupt had been required to furnish • ow& ac count, but declared his inability to do so, bec►use great parts of the payments; had been made by the solicitors to the mortgagees. The creditors were also desirous of having a goods account. It was urged that the bankrupt had been put forward by the party who bad the lease of the land in order to get credit from tradesmen for building materials. The Commissioner—And any person who r,.res credit under such circumstances is a great goose. (Laughter.) Mr. Dowse urged that credit had been given with a full knowledge of thsisircumstances. Ilia Honour said it was attouildiing, looking at the frequent recurrence of these cases, that pnrtiee should be induced to give credit to • large amount to persons in the position of the bankrupt. Here wan • man owing 9,0301., and he bad no books of any kind, and not • farthing to pay any body. Creditors might well be dissatis fi ed with inch • re sult, The examination would be adjourned sine die, with protection for a mouth. IN BE FIVIRI 'RUM. The bankrupt, ao importer of foreign goods, of Lawrence Pountneydane, applied for his order of discharge. Debts, 3,0001. odd ; no assets. His Honour said the bankrupt had traded as " Henri Prayer and Co." After a trading of fifteen months he was in debt upwards of 3,0001. Being called upon to acmunt for his deficiency, be stated that he had bad debts to the lame amount-3,0001. He gave the names of his debtors ; and the official assignee reported that out of 3,0721., 2,8601. was decidedly had. The bankrupt was a native of Belgium; he had commenced without capital. Oa sake of 7,0031. he had incurred bad debts of 3,0001. Having an imperfect knowledge of the English language, he had trusted to agents, who hid introduced to him those bad debtors, and he had fallen amongst knaves. After hearing the solicitors on each side, His Honour said that but for the disclosures in that court, it would be impossible to believe in such caste as those. Here was a man without capital coming over from Belgium, and in fifteen months contracting debt. of 3,000/4 and in the same time he incurred bad debts of equal amount. He bad evidently contracted debts without probable means of paying them ; such a career could only result in bankruptcy, and the discharge would be sus pended for six alendar months. IN HE 8111143011. The bankrupt was described as a surgeon and apothecary of Rotherhithe. Debts 6741., assets nominal. The bankrupt being examined said that 'be had been in solvent or bankrupt thrice before. In 18.14, he was bankrupt owing, 6,0001. or 7,0001. • in Itl4, he was insolvent and paid no dividend; the MOM in 1860. He was • surgeon-apottusoary, but not a member of the College of Surgeons. His name ap peared in the Medical Regicter, as practising as an soothe aim He had no pension and had never said that he had. Mr. Bromley stated that of the bankrupt's debts 3121. was due to the Loudon, Brighton, and South Closet Rail. way Company. against whom he had brought an action for attendance on one of the sufferers by the Clayton Tunnel accident, and had been non-suited. He bad been im• priamied at the suit of the company 26 days. Mr. Warrand, for the bankrupt, said that he would have obtained a verdict against the company but for the awl dental absence of • witness. His Honour said the bankrupt appeared to have traded in insolvency. This was his fourth appearance in the court. He had contracted debts without probable expectation of payment, Ikeda' that ground the discharge would be sus pended for six months, but protection would be given. IN RE eIiRICKLAND. The bankrupt was an umbrella-manufacturer of Basing hall-street. The liabilities were of trifling amount ; and the only noticeable point in the ease was that the solicitor for the sr' noes not being in attendance, his Honour di rected that his fee should be disallowed. The order was granted. IS RE CHARLES WILLIAMS. The bankrupt was a leather-seller, of New Weston-street, Bermondsey. This was the examination meeting. Against unsecured debts of 4,0311. the assets were returned at 81181. Mr. Hackwood, for the assignees, did not oppose, and the bankrupt passed. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) TR RE LLEWILLTN.—LONG IMPRISONMENT. The bankrupt, formerly a merchant in the City, applied for his release from custody. It appeared that he bad been in prison six years. Mr. Denny supported the application. The bankrupt had executed • deed of release, asd had been afterwards arrested. His Honour, after referring to the deed, was of opinion that it did cot comply with the conditions of the act, but took time to consider the point. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-MEET. ♦ NARROW SWAM. .lames Carney, a shoemaker, was charged before Mr. Tyr whitt with wilfully breaking • quantity of glass, and with disorderly conduct at the house of Mr. W. Fisher, the King and Queen, Foley-street. Front the evidence of Mr. Fisher, it appeared that no Saturday nigh4the prisoner and four companions entered his house, having been turned out of another, and created • great disturbance. Mr. Fisher requested the prisoner to desist, when he Bung • pint measure at his to ad, but Mr. Fisher, fortu nately stooping. avoided a blow which was aimed at him with such violence t hat the measure was nearly bent double. The result of the throwing was that • large quantity of glass was broken. A constable haviog stated that the prisoner and his coin. paoions had been turned out of another house for their violent conduct, Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for one month for throwing the measure at Mr. Fisher, ordered him to pay 10e. or seven days for the damage, and to be bound over to keep the peace for six months towards Yr. Fisher. ARSENICAL POItiONI NO IN Luscorxionan.—A very serious case of poisoning is being investigated at lteveeley, about eight miles from Boston, in Lincoloaltira The body of an elderly woman, named Jemima Garner, has been exhumed, and the stomach, &c., forwarded to Dr. Alfred Swains Taylor, who, in his report, states that he dis covered arsenic in the stomach, intestines, liver, and heart of the deceased, partly in a soluble and partly in an inso luble form, i. •., as orpiment or yellow arsenic. Patches of colour were observed on the stomach, bowels, and spine, produced probably by •chemical change in the white arsenic contained in the stomach and bowels at the time of death. Yellow stains found on the spine were produced by arsenic escaping through the mate of the stomach after death, and yellow stains on the mesentery were caused by arsenic esca ping through the coats of the intestines. The quantity of arsenic tumid in the body would probably be a fatal dose to t human being. This result was disclosed after only one third of the viscera had been experimented upon. The body of the poor old woman was interred so long since as December, Dail. John Garner, her son, and Elizabeth Carnet, his wife, have been apprehended, and it appears they were both in the habit of behaving cruelly to the deceased, who resided with them. Thus, when the de ceased was suffering from dreadful pain and sickness on her deathbed, she was refused brandy by her son, wh o said to her, " You've been torturing me with your dying these last thirty years ; you're afraid of dying ; it's your Wesleyaniam giving way." He then left the room, and did not see his mother moth; although sent fur twice. On soother omission he had been seen to beat and kick his mother. The female prisoner was also in the habit of swearing and calling at the deceased. The inquest, which has been commenced, has been adjourned until after Christmas. __— DEATH CAUSED BY THE BIRKENHEAD RIOTS. On Friday, an inquest was held by Mr. Churton, on the brdy of Thomas Gregson, who died on Wednesday, in con. sequence of injuries he sustained on the 15th of October last, at the hands of the rioters. It appeared that the deceased resided near the scene of the r:ot, and went to see What was going on. He was a:tacked in a savage manner by the rioters, and being unable to get into hi, own house, to lave his face from the blows of his cowardly se sailants he turned his back toward' them. Whilst in tbis position, leaning on the paliesdieg in front of his real. the ruffians beat him wish sticks and other weapons, inflicting very severe injuries, from the effects of which he never recovered. A post 111)0114111 examination of the body me mode by Dr. Craig, Mr. Evans, and Mr. Baker, who were or opinion that death had resulted from natured causal, but accelerated by bodily injuries. The jury return( I a verdict to that effect, fixing the injuries to hove been in flicted on the night of the 15th October lad, during the riot. —Lt rerpool DEsPERATB ATTEMPT AT HIGHWAY ROBBERY.— A MAN finere—A desperate attempt at hway robbery WA Nemo° Thursday night, near Chertedeld.

Hamond, Bart., G.C.B. The vener able and gallant veteran expired on Saturday morning, at his residence, Norton Lodge, Freshwater, Isle of Wight. The gallant officer has only enjoyed the high distinction at Admiral of the Fleet a few weeks, that honour having been conferred on him on the 10th ult., on the occasion of hie Royal Highness the Prince of Wales attaining his majority. He had, however, been previously, is succession, Rear- Admiral and Vice-Admiral of the United Kingdom. FEDERAL FINANCE.—If the elavebolders' rebel lion shall be supturrssed before the Ist of July next—as we believe it can and will Wit the principles of the proclamation of freedom shall be thoroughly enforced and lived up to—the entire!national debt will be less than one thousand millions of dollars, and its anneal interest less than fifty millions, while weshall haves tariff and internal tax law yielding togetheraa aggregate of not less than two hundred millions per annum. We can then proce=ed to take off the most onerous taxes to the extent of fifty millions per annum, and still have seventy-five millions for the support of government, fifty millions for the payment of interest as aforesaid, and twenty five millions for the annual reduction of the principal of the debt ; an income which would suffice to pay off the entire debt within the ensuiug thirty years.—Nr‘o York Tribune, Dec. 8. CO-OPERATIVE FARMS.—Mr. John Gordon, of Assiogton Hall, Suffolk, writes to the Times:—•• About thirty years ago, upon • small farm in Suffolk becoming vacant, I called together twenty labourers, and offered to lend them capital wthout interest if they would undertake to farm it, subject to my rules and regulations. They gladly availed themselvei of my offer. In the course of ten years they paid me back my capital, so that 1 win induced to let another farm of 150 acres to thirty men upon the ume terms. These have also nearly paid - back the capital lout to them, and, instead of eating dry bread, as I regret to say many of the agricultural labourers are now doing, each man has his bacon, and numberless com forts that be never possessed before; thus the rates are reduced, as these 50 families are no longer burdensome. The farmers are sure to meet with honest men, as conviction of crime would debar them of their share, and the ratio them selves have become much more intelligent, and present happy, cheerful countenances. If every country gentleman would follow my example, distress among the agricultural poor would not be known. I merely add that I have no land so well farmed. I shall be barfpy to mud you my plan, roles, and ?stabilities, if required."

MR CONFEDERATE CRUMB ALABAMA. The Liverpool Juurneil of Comm:ree save :—" We have been informed that her Majesty's goveiJmeat have issued orders to their various agents, at the various ports of the Western Isl►nds, that if the Confederate steamer Alabama, or ' 2.90,' should enter any of theme porta, she is at 0003 to be ordered off, ►nd not allowed to take in coal or provloions. The order fr-ther states that if the Alabama should call at Faysl, or other port, they are to inform Captain Semmes that if, after th's notice, he should destroy any merchandise which may be consigned to British merchants in neutral vessels, her M►jesty's govern. meat all at once take steps to captr-e rod destroy the steamer under his command." NATIONAL PROVIDENT INSTITUTION. (THIS DAT). The annual meeting of the members of this in stitution was held at noon, at the London Tavern ; Mr. S. A. LUCAS in the chai., "to receive and consider the general statement of the funds and effects, and the report of the state and prospects of the institution, and for the transaction of other matters specified in the 22nd rule of the rules and regulations of the institution." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said he had no doubt that the present report had been looked forward to with more than usual interest, inasmuch as it was the last of the quinquennial period. The four previous years had been so favourable that it must have led to meet favourable expectations of the result of the quinquennial investigation, and the present was even of a morel favourable character, the transactions of the past year having been considerably in excess in regard to the number of policies issued, and the amount received from new premiums of any one of the previous four years, wb"e at the same time the mortality had been moat sat , sfactory. Al the merit of the yeai's trains 'Cons, they bad added 153,00 f. to the pre , existing capital, making the amount of the capital at the present moment clone upon two and • quarter millions. Since the repor.. was issued the directors had b3en furnished with the repot. of the actus ,, v, who had been unable from Maw to prepare it before. the a-artery's repot t, which had been rennved on Fi:day last, was of the most gratifying character and surpassed all expectation. In substance it stated that during the five years they had accumulated a sur plus of upwards of 530,000 f., which in due time would be appropriated amongst the members. (Cheers.) That ex ceeded the sum accumulated in the previous five years, when it was 345,030/., the excess being 185,0031. On the other hand they must bear in mind that there was a large increase in the number of policies and the consequent liabilities of the society. There were now more than 17,000 policies in existence, whereas at the end of the Inn quinquennial period the number wan 2,00) less. Still there was so large a margin left as to justify them in anticipating, to say the least, as favourable • divi sion of profit es they had ever had. Last Mon day they moved into the new offices in Crane churchatreet, and commenced business therein, and the extent of the premises and the completeness of the ar rangements induced the board to believe that all the re quirements of the company would be met in that building for many generations to come. After paying • compliment to Mr. Kerr, the architect, he congratulated the share holders on the extraordinary somase and high position they held in public favour, and the brightness of their future preepecia. The resolution, having been seconded, was put and retried. In reply to questions as to the coat of the new building, The Cei Alastair said the accounts were not yet in, but when all was paid, and the second floor of the new bolding was let, which it could be without interfering with the al commoiation require d for the business of the company, they would stand at not more than from 1,0001. to 1,203 f. a year. After a somewhat personal and hregular discussion, in reference principally to a previous election for the direc torate, in which Mr. Aston, who raised the queetion ? bad been defeated, and the mesons for dropping the hil intro duced last sessioo relating to proxy voting, in respect to which Mr. Thwaites (chairmen of the Metropolitan Board) and others disputed the tight of the directors to go to parlia ment without the previously obtained consent of the mem bers, Mr. BARBER moved a resolution to the effect that the directon should not promote any bill in ruliament e.tbout laying the bill before a meeting duly convened, and taking the opinion of the members thereon. This was *wooded by Mr. BOWIILNG, and gave rise to another discussion, in the course of which the solicitor of the company stated that the resolution was irregular and foreign to the bushier of the meeting, while a number of the members insisted upon ite being put, arguing against proxy voting under any cir cumstances, and contending that its effect upon the Na tional Provident would be to throw the whole government of the society into the hands of the country agents, and deprive the London policyholders of their privileges. Mr. Barber's resolution was ultimately carried, and the proceedings terminated. :PORT. WEATHER .-(THIS DAY.) MONDAY. 22. I A.ll. 9E) W. .X. C. I. H. X. S.
