The bankrupt wee taken in execution, and after :r-_g in Whitecrossatreet prima for nineteen days, now for his release.

Harris opposed on behalf of the detaining creditor, whose debt was 'Ol/ and contended that the creditors :weeny had had no notice of the adjudication, which only place on Wednesday la st M r . Lewis said there had been the usual advertisement in the ("Prete, which was notice to all the world. Mr. Harris—The adjudication only took place on Wed nesday last, and the assignees have not yet been chosen. Mr. Lewis—The notice required by act of parliament has been given. The Commissioner—How can you expect the creditors to wade throngh all the notices in the Gazette, and pick out this •• zeedle in a bottle of hay .. ! Lewis urged that the bankrupt bed been in prison 1:110-1. and during nearly the whole of that time he had been in the infirmary, as he was suffering from a severs at : of rheumatic gout.

The state of his health alone would entitle him to the :tilideratiee of the court, The Commissioner—ls he able to find bail! Mr. Lewis said this was unnecessary, as in his position the bankrupt could not go away. He was a controller of cmi returns in the Board of Trade, and must be found there at any moment.

This was a case in which the discretion of the court might be properly exercised. His Honour said it had been distinctly laid down by the Lori Chancellor ' in th e ease of Colonel Waugh hid other cases, that these applications for re lease were not to be treated as mere matters of course, or as a question merely between the debtor and detaining creditor. but that the creditors generally were entitled to a voice in the matter se to whether the release of a bankrupt from custody would be of advantage to the estate. This being so, and the creditors having had no opportunity hitherto of is:premiss their opinion on the matter, the court would only order the bankrupt's release on 'nth conditions as would secure his attendance at the little( for choice of assignee.. and at the subsequent sitting tinder the bankruptcy. He most enter into his own rvoannanee of 100/., and fled two metier in 100/. each. Mr. Harris asked that notice should be given of the bail. The Comrsiesioner—That is of course.

Mr. Webby stated that he attended to prosecute these tea men for the murder of six men on the high seas, and for piracy, and for the wilful destruction of the ship Flowery Land. He only proposed to call one or two witnesses to give sufficient evidence for the purpose of remand, as five of the prisoners and some of the witnesses having only arrived last night, there had not been time to arrange the case. Mr. Welaby then briefly stated the facts, and proceeded to call witnemes. Mr. Vives was sworn in to interpret the evidence.

I did so, and when I returned I found him striking the mate again. I was going to call the captain, when Manritia (di Rano) told me to go into the bous, and I went into the hose on deck. I was there about three-quarters of an hour. I told the carpenter they were killing the mate. Maroo Vast° came and called the Frenchman oat of his bed. He bad a capstan bar in his hand. He told the Frenchman to come and take the wheel. The Frenchman did not want to comp, as it was not 4 o'clock, but be forced him on deck. He threatened the Frenchman, but I do not recollect what be said. Hes:rime making a noise with the capstan bar, striking everything he PIMA near. I went on deck about half-past 4 or 5 and toned the deck all blood, and also the poop. I went into the cabin and found the captain's body lying wrapped up in canvas. The second-mate was sitting there without his clothes, crying, and asking what they were going to do with him. Lyons was there. and there were more—there were about three or four—Miguel Lopez was there, and others of the prisoners. Joseph Cheers (Lopez) took a rope and fastened it round the captain's body, • sung out to some our OS deck to haul it up, which was done. I did not see it thrown overboard. We got to land at a place called Cape St. Mary. After that I and Caffre and Ander son and Oudereau went before the naval court at Monte Video, and were sworn.

Few of our Kentish gentry were better knows, ono none more highly respected, than the owner of Fredville. He was officially connected with Dover as the lieutenant governor of its Castle, sod was far may years • commissioner of its harbour; bat in his association with varied efforts for the evangelimatiou of our race—especially by the spread of the Inspired Volume—will his memory be most revered by those who survive him. For slog& period Mr. Plumptre sat in the Commons for Fiat Kent; and silica his reticeineat from public life his energies have been principally directed to the road and religious edema meat of the district in which he more Immediately resided, although other sod national reh lees enterprises largely shared the offerings from his peso sad his sympathise.

He had soinethieg to ray of the "eirenmetenoes" tonehieg which the National Sleeks spear. Committee has passed • vote of " regret,' and which Mr. Loam has ledi v ently declared will cause posterity to " point with meet et that presage in the easamittee. history. They did not ruffle Thackeray, however they may have inseseed his friends; and it is not needful—at least at present—to reproduce his mufti& judgment on those whom it concerned. Oa that evening be enjoyed himself much, in his own quiet way, and contributed go Melly to the enjoyment of *one who were munethieg less quiet; and, a question arising shod • subscription in aid of a disabled iirtist, he isemetly offered to lacrosse, if necessary, a sum he had previously promised. The writer's very hue recollection of tie cynic. therefore, is in causer - ion wits as numbed act of Christina Madams. Oa the follow ing Monday he attended the renewal of • lady who was interred is Kemal-greet Onmobsey.
