TEE PROVISIONAL OOVERNMENT AT FLORENCE. The Marquis of NORNA-NBV was desire= to cermet as erroneous impressaces which the words used by Noble and learned rend (Lord Brougham) on a tanner oseesien were likely to produce with to mom and puttees. a who had ern e.poriW with him ( lob e sea lip. the late Armitage cosessitled at He was sorry that hie wide sad Mused Mead should have adopted such a dispatch. Mee Irma those who lied written the facts to which he tehmed. The information rontniewl in that correepoodenee with mud to the acts of the presumes! governeeest of Florence was conveyed t o hue by peewee of great mileace. At that time the pro visional government, which sus sopported and nursed into existence by the action el the noble lord the Serrelitry of Stat.: be Foreign Alois, led satirely piped the pose, and not • syllable was allowed to be circulated apposed is its view , . That provisional govermaset was now at eared, sad the iroms eamerpmese wee that • nirw., pair by some of the most eminent men in Phase s, of liberal opittioes, had been for the lent six weeks in existence, and in that newsper all the statements made by his cor respondents bed been substantiated. What was the course takes by the agesta of the provisional government ? They had not attempted to deny the facts stated wine' them, but attar eadeavouring to suppress the paper. they, sa a LA resource, bought off the tinnier and other parties connected with it, no that the paper itaelf was I suspended for ten days but it was again in existence, and enjoyed such • circulation that it was now published daily instead of three times • week. He must also state that what he had always foreseen appeared likely to occur, namely, that the only party that would gain by 002 inter ference in the affairs of Tuscany was the Maraini party, which was now stronger and bolder than ever, and the last information he had received from Florence wee that three committees for barricades had been established. The noble and learned lord also seemed to throw great discredit upon the stetemeets which he (the Marquis of Normanby) made as to what had appeared iu the French papers, but they hail all been affirmed by the noble lord the Secretary for Forego Attain, in the other home, the very day after he bad quoted them. He did not think, when • person in the situation of General Garibaldi eastuned the responsibility of the government of • country, end such atrocities were committed under that government, that it was • sufficient excuse to say for him, as his noble friend opp.site did, that the reports from our admiral showed I:reel-el Garibaldi to have been a person of discre tion. He made these ',marks in justice to the respectable gentlemen who had sent him the letters stating what the prortsiorld government were doing. I,nl BROUGHAM—My limb, lam sure you will give me credit fur abstaining, to anything I said, from making the slightest imputation upon my noble friend himself. Hear, hear.) Correspondence undoubtedly mean, letters received as well as letters sent, and when I described the very small value I attached to the correspondence of the noble lord, I meant letters which he received, and not letters he sent ; which letters sent by him I hd no means of judging of, except from my entire confidence in him. I felt sure that whatever statements he conveyed in them it was quite certain would be accurate. With respect to the rest of the correspondeooe the value I put on the letters was the very smallest, an:l nothing which has fallen from my noble friend has stall inclined me to estimate that value higher than I did on • former occasion. (Laughter.) My information from Florence is diametrically opposite to hie (hear, hear)--and I have no doubt whatever that he will attach as little value to my cone spondence as I attach .. to his. I believe at this moment the government of Florence is not subject to the imputations, Dot of my noble friend, hut of his oorrespoo dente, but is perfectly free from those charges. (Cheers.) With respect to an individual who is celebrated in the pre sent day, and in my opinion not more celebrated thee he deserves to be- I mean General Garibaldi-flood cheers)- I ant exceedingly glad to hear to-night from my noble friend that he doe. not at ell impute to Omega' Garibaldi say ot those excesses which he mays have been committed in the course of the revolutionary proceedings in Sicily. I certainly did not understand my noble friend tory so on • former oc maim. I thought that if he did not actually charge these ex cesses upon General Garibaldi, he more than insinuated that the general was answerable for them, and I do not think he even now withdraws from the iastanation that for theme ex cesses the general is annrershk. I suppose that • person in supreme power is answerable for everything done during di.. tatorship, but in DO other WOW can I conceive Gene ral Garibaldi answerable for any one of the excesses which have been referred to. lam told that the noble lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs admitted that these extremes had taken place ; but did the noble lord admit Garibaldi bad anything to do with them? I believe the resins, and that the noble lord denied the fact, as I do now. (Hear, hear.) I believe there has been no cause known in the world which it.. met more universal acceptance than the cause of Sicily, with treseral Garibaldi at its head, against the tyrant of Naples and his emisaaries, whether in the form of sbirri, policemen, or soldiers-(oud cheers) -and those soldiers, Maly believe , only for a season remaining under allegiance thatto . king. (Hear, hear.) lam told there is a ionstitu tion impuied upon Naples by a certain high authority else where. That will be a complete failure, in my firm belief ; and in my entire and hearty hope and prayer it will fail en tirely to save that detestable tyrant. (Loud cheers.) The Mamma of NORMANDY begged to observe that he never stated General Uaribeldi was personally answerable for theme nutters ; but he must repeat that when a man; in direct violation of the law of natiota, assumed absolute power in any country, he rendered himself responsible for any outrages which might be committed. Lord BROUGHAM- My noble friend says thnt General Garilhdoli has, in direct vio lation of the law of nations, pro ceeded to the liberation of hie fellow-subjects in Sicily. All I can say is, that if the law of nations 14 to be enforced to effect the subjugation and the misers. of nations, thew:neer we hoar as little as possible of the law of nation" the better. (I %rem. ) Loral Wi WEHOUSE said that, as his noble friend oppo site (the Marouia of Normanby) had referred to what he stated the other night with replied to General Garibaldi, he might be allowed to repeat what he did say. What he stated was that General Garibaldi was not only not coo- Dieted with these outrages, but that he hail done - hie utmost to prevent them. ((sheers.) The last information the government had received was that the general had taken severe measures to prevent their repetition. There could be nu doubt that General Garibaldi deserved the highest credit fur the general spirit of moderatiou lie had shown aims the commeseement of these transactions (cheers)- and it must not be forgotten that if, in the excitement of the revolution, some maniere. were cornruitted by the people et Sicily, outrages had also been committed by the royal troops which were perfectly well known to the world, and which certainly bad out Leen surpassed by anything done by the people of (('heers.) The subject then dropped.

THE CUSTOMS DUTY ON PAPER. Mr. DISRAELI wished to *my what course the Ms cellar of the Ex*r—quer meant to pursue with reagent to the resolution of which he had given notice on the salhirict of **equalisation of the duty on foreign paper. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that re solution stood without. any change up to the present time. In the course of a few days, however, he would amend the resolution, and put it in the exact form in which it would be submitted to the house. Of course it would not be brought on without full notice. India if the European Forces in India Bill, which stood Lit on Thursday next, would oome on then. Sir C. WOOD mid he was afraid that bill would be= to give way to the Chine vote, which was a more matter. Lord C. HAMILTON gave notice that he would put a question to the noble lord the Secretary of State for Foreign Affaim, as to whether any official intelligence had been reosived confirming the reports of the dreadful MY WSW of the Christian population in the Lebanon. A resolution was passed, giving leave for as officer of the holm to attend and give evidence in a trial at the Central Criminal Court. BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY. The adjourned debate on the report of the committee upon bankruptcy and insolvency salaries, ha, with the amendment, agreed to by the house, to omit the word " compensatioos" from the charges which the first resolu tion laid upon the Consolidated Fund, was restuned. The AITORNEYAIENERAL said he would state the comes he proposed to take to remedy the mischief done by the house in coming toe vote to strike out the word " compensation" from the bill. The object of the bill was to relieve the suitors in bankruptcy from a large amount of fees ; and with that view certain charges created by act of parliament were to be transferred from the fee-fund of the Court of Bankruptcy to the consolidated fund. This being rejected, 'he had made other arrange ments ; but, he added, that unless the opposition he had received from gentlemen of his own party against the bill, which had been accepted by the whole commercial commu nity, was abated, he must give up the bill. He proposed to leave the salaries of the county court judges who would have duties cast on them by the bill on the consolidated fund, and to make them all 1,5001. a year. It was proposed to raise the fees in the county courts by • small amount, which would bring 34,0001. into the consolidated fund. He should leave the compensation and retiring annuities charged where there were, and a vote should be asked for the amount necessary to pay them from the house every year. After • short coavereatioe, the first resolution, as asseedek and the other resolutions were agreed to ; the house then went into committee upon the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Bill, the datum of which up to the 77th (the number in the bill exceeding 500), underwent • very full discussion, more than one amendment adverse to the views of the Attorney-General having been carried upon a divines, much to his apparent dissatisfaction. Upon the question that the chairman report progress, Lord PALMERSTON moved that the committee sit again on Thursday, at 12 o'clock.

John Storie. of Hseleborrow, in the parish of Norton, Derbyshire, by his will, dated 28th April, 1674, devised and bequeathed certain freehold and copyhold lands in Yorkshire for the maintaining and bring ing up of three boys, the children of such parents as were not able to bring them up, at one of the universities, for three years. The first children were to be chosen out of those who were then at a petty school, where they were being trained for the Free Grammar School, Wakefield. "After wards other three boys of the mime were to be sent up and maintained there three years successively for ever." By • scheme, dated 1826, which was approved for the management of the charity, it was provided that the gift should applied to maintain and bring up three boys born in the town of Wakefield at one of the universities of Ox ford or Cambridge, for four instead of three years, such boys to be elected out of the boys who should have been three Las at the Free Grammar School at Wakefie and that in case there should not be ray boys fit to be e lected born within the town of Wakefield, the governors might be at liberty to elect boys born within the parish of Wakefield, who had been three years at the grammar school. If none fit to be elected born within the iparish, then any other boys who had been three years at the school might be chosen. In June last an election took place, when Joseph Westmoreland, who alone of the three candidates for the exhibition was born within the town or pariah of Wakefield, was elected. He had been three years at the grammar school, which how ever he left five years ago, and of late had been educated at a school at Shrewsb ury . The petitioner bad been at the grammar school three years and upwards next prece ding the time of the election, and contended that the words of the founders' will required that the exhibitioner should be sent immediately from the school, a requirement which could not be satisfied by the election of a candidate who had left the school five years ago. His Honour observed that upon consideration he was of opinion that the petitioner had placed a wrong construction on the scheme now regulating the gift. The ques tion was between • youth not born either in the town or pariah of Wakefield, but who hail been at the school for three years next before the election, and one born in the town or parish, and who also had been three years at the school, though he had left it some time before the election. The testator's object was the educa tion of the boys in the petty school, whence they were to yo to the grammar school, and thence to the university. He had not distinguished between town and pariah boys and foreigners. The scheme sanctioned by the court sought to work out the pupae of the founder by giving the pre cedence to boys born in the town, then to those born in the pariah, and, failing both, to foreigners. The ad ditional qualification was three years at the grammar school, and as these schema should be literally construed, it was not requisite that those three years should imme diately precede the election. No order, therefore, would be made on the petition. Mr. R. Palmer, Mr. Follett, Mr. Selwyn, Mr. Kerslake, Mr. Deuce, and Mr. Kay appeared for the different parties. (Before Vise-Chancellor Sir R. T. Kindendey.) 11 RZ THZ NORTHUNICIRLAND AND DURHAM DISTRICT THE CENSUS AND THE PAPER DUTY. Sir ifltilaiiiilf7esildnot help tiiniiniihat the answer of the noble lord respecting the Census BM was not respectful to his party. He took that opportunity sieving notice that, on the first ,xossion of the motion for going into a committee of supply or ways and means he would move an amendment to the effect that the house ihould not go into such committee until the question of the paper duty should have been settled. Mr. BAINES asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, considering the advanced period of the session, sad the great interest taken in the CORMS Bill for England, he would fix an n early day for going into com mittee on that measure. "' Mr. W. MARTIN sted the Secretary of State for the Home Department what course he intended to. pursue re uppeting the Corrupt Practices Bill and Ecclesiastical Com mission Bill _ _ Sir G. C. LEins said that the Census Bill was already fixed for an early day—viz., Wednesday, and he was in formed that the two orders which presseled it were aot likely to occupy much time, so that there was every two bability of its earning on at an hour which would afford an oppo t it o naf d or ample discussion . If the Census Bill wee not with on that day he would fix another day at wheat period the business of the house would admit of. In reply to the question of the other hoe. member (Mr. W. Martin), he had to state that he new no chance of passing the bills he bad mentioned in the present sessioe. Mr. B. OSBORNE observed that the right hon. baronet had said that the two bills which preceded the Census Bill on the orders of the day for Wednesday were not likelto occupy much time. Now, the first bill was the Public Charities Bill, and the second the Education Bill ; and if the right hon. bert. thought that after the discussion of such important measures there would be ample time left for the consideration of the Census Bill at the same sitting, he must have excessive powers of credi bility. The government, by their conduct on this question of the MUMS, had caused much dissatisfaction amongst the dissenters, who would otherwise have been their best sup porters, and the least that could be expected was that the government should give • straightforward answer to a direct question ; bat neither the reply of the noble lord nor that of the right ham genoolllllll the Secretary of State was one they could be eroded with. Did the right hon. gentlemen intend to drop i bis obnoxious form which he had put into the Census BM? If so, no opposition would be given to the bill, but if he Wended to go an with that form, let him state his intentions at once. It would be convenient to know whether the hill was to be taken on Wednesday, in ease elf ha not beteg possible to bring it on beforeone o'clock. Mr. W. EWAET also desired some information from the goverment as to the course they would adopt on this im portant matter. Mr. COLLINS asked the hon. gentleman the member for Poole whether be intended to persevere with the second reading of the Ecclesiastical Vestments Bill. DANBY SEYMOUR replied that he did not mean to go on with that bill until he had ascertained what were the intentions of the government on that question, to which he would call the attention of the house. Mr. HADFIELD urged that an explicit reply should be given to the Inquiries made about the Census Bill, on which subject it was said • bargain had been made between the noble lord and the leaders en the other side of the home. Lord ENFIELD would out ask the government now whe ther they meant to adhere to that clause of the Census Bill which bad excited so much discontent and apprehennou in the country, but whether, us there were two orders of the day before it on Wednesday, they would not postpone it to some other day. Sir G. C. LEWIS would state again the position in which the bill stood. There was a rule of the house which pre vented any order being changed for a day earlier than that which was originally fixed ; and it was therefore impos sible for the government now to place the Census Bill earlier than the day for which it now stood. It was also unusual to anticipate a debate by making • statement to the house of the course which the government proposed to pursue on any measure. lie was informed that one of the orders which stood for Wednesday was not likely to occupy any considerable time, and the other not so much as to prevent the Census Bill from coming on. But if this should torn out contrary to his expectations, he would attempt to state on Wednesday the course which the government would pursue. The resolution for the adjournment was then negatived. HOUSES OF RIEFITOE FOP.FEMALES. Mr. V. V EWART asked the President of the Poor-law Board whether he would object to introduce a clawe into the Poor-law Amendment Bill enabling guardians to ex pand • sum out of the poor mien to provide for women and girl, being received into accredited Inmate of refuge or homes, for moral and industrial training. Mr. VILLIERS wu aware that the scheme to which his hon. friend referred was one favoured by a number of very excellent and benevolent individuals, and the subject had received the moat attentive consideration from the Poor law Board. But from the beet advice be had been aide to procure, both from the legal advisers of the board, and the persona who had had must experience in administering the poor laws, he thought the was one quite beyond the objects of the Pour-law, and at variance with its purpose. The pui pose of the Pour-law was to relieve the destitute and take charge of the children of destitute persons. The scheme now peep ee! was to apply the rata for the maintenanee of adult persons in • manner which would not be under the supervision of the guardians, or subject to the jurisdiction of the magistrates. It might hereafter be determined by the legislature to sena tion such • fresh application of the rates, but thee care should be taken to prevent those evils arming which, under the old system of farming paupers, were found to prevail. Colonel SYKES asked the right hon. baronet tbe Secre tary of State for India whether it wu true that Major Riley, of the 94th Foot, and Lieutenant Topham, of the 7th, had been appointed to the coniumuil of the Rohilcund Horse without having passed the examination fur the native langtuwee. ihr C. WOOD said be hal inquired at the Inilia.ofiles, and found that no information had been received on the subject. THE NEW FOREION•OFFICE. Mr. D. FORTESCUE asked whether the Chief Commis sioner of Works would submit Mr. Kcott's amended de signs for the Foreign-office to the inspection of members this session. Mr. COWPER replied that a design with a new elevation had bees wowed by Mr. Ecott, and was still under COINI• deratios. He would give no opinion an the subject at present, bat hoped to be able to do so in a few days. Mr. BAXTER asked the Chancellor of the Exchonuer whether it was true that the Atlantic Telegraph Steam Packet Company but sold the contract for conveying the Mal between tlalway and the United States for 300,010., and whether such agreement had received the sanction of the government. KENSINGTON•GARDENS. Sir J. SHELLEY put a question to the First Commis sioner of Works on a subject which bad excited much in tent—it was Anther be proposed to make a road through the centre of Keemingtonfardena, as woe stated, joining Tylviarnia to Belgravia. ad going over the site of the Exhi bition He also asked whether the right 11011. gen tleman would make such a risul without previously waling to parliament for its sanction. Mr. COWPER said he had no intention at present of doing such a thing. Mr. A. SMITH remarked that the right hon. gentleman had not answered the second part of the question. Mr. COWPER said if any mosey was required to be spent on any work in the Park, he should certainly think it right, on the whole, to ask the house to vote the money before he spent THE CHINESE WAR. - Mr. PEAOOCKE said on what eveniet; the government Proposed to ask for a vote on account of the expeoditwt fur The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that his right hon. friend the Secretary for War would propose that estimate on Thursday, and would at the same time call attention to the provision to be made ter this mat- VOLUNTEERING IN IRELAND. Mr. VANdialited the right boo. Secretary of State for War whether the statement was correct that it hail been announced that her Majesty would accept the services of volunteer ride corps in Ireland, and if so, on what con ditions Mr. S. HERBERT said that his attention had just been called to • circular printed in Dublin containing a state ment to that effeet ; but he bad DO VOlOO, authority, or dl.. cretin's is any matters wooded with the calling out of the volunteer fusses in Ireland ; it rested entirely on the Irish government. In answer to • question addressed to the Attonsey- General fur Delano on the same subject, Mr. DEASY said that the question should be put to his right lion. Mend the Chief Secretary for legend, who wes not than present la the house. He (the Atterusy-theeral fur Ireland) led already stated whet was the bier, which should be kept in view by those who were regulating this movement iu Ireton). 5I H. WILLOUGHBY asked the Secretary of State for BANKING COMPANY. Mr. Gifted and submitted to the court for its approval a proposal of compromise on the part of the contributories to the hank, and which was ap proved of by the official liquidators and • majority of the creditors. The proposal was as follows "To the official liquidators of the Northumberland and Durham District flanking Company.—On behalf of the shareholders and representatives of the shareholders men tioned in the act herein referred to, we beg to offer you a sum of 157,2501. for the release of inch shareholders and their estates from all prevent and future calls, and all liabilities, as contributories in the said banking company, and for purcluaing that portion of the Elswich estate which lies northof the Sootswood-road, the building ground atSouth Shields is called the Clay estate. In respect of the said re lease, the persons on the list agree to pay 85,2501., pert of the said 157,1500., in manner following, namely 15,01101. in three calendar months from the confirmation by the court and the acceptance of this offer, and 15,00 0 1. at the end of six months . ' The proposal then provided for the made of paying the total amount by instalments, and fixed the price of the Elswich estate at 5,11001., and of the Clay estate at 7,000 C Mr. Belly and Mr. Martin appeared for creditors in sup port of the compromise. Mr. Taller and Mr. Dickinson appeared for the thi-five shareholders; Mr. Cotton, for the Bank of Engla nd ere diton • Mr. Swanstou, for Messrs. Glyn and Co. and other creditors ; Mr. Wickens, for Sir M. S. Ridley and other creditors ; and all supported the compromise. Mr. Glasse and Mr. Southgate appeared for a portion of the creditors in opposition. The Vies-Chancellor said be had come to a conclusion which rendered it unnecessary for hint to hear the response. He bed an impression that it would be for the benefit of all the creditors, not only those who were supporting but those who were opposing this application, that what was proposed should b• nomPted, and therefore he could not help regretting that he was obliged to come to the conclusion to which be had arrived. He had arrived at that impres sion from the confidence he felt that the Official liquida tors had come to a right MI reasonable conclusion considering that they were gentlemen whose judg ment, meat, integrity, and impartiality were beyond all question. His impression was strengthened by the fact that • large body of creditors concurred in the view taken by the liquidators. A large proportion of the creditors supported the proposi tion, but certain other creditors objected to it ; and the ground of their objection was this—they said they did nut know but what they might come to the same conclusion as the other shareholders and the official liquidator had come to if they had the means of arriving at • judgment, but they had Dot, and that the court had not • means of forming a judgment, and they objected to the court coining to a con clusion when it had not the means Of arriving at a proper conclusion. He thought that was an objectiou which it was impossible for him to get over in the view that he took of the construction and effect of the act of parliament, be cause, after all, the whole question turned on the construc tion of the 19th section of the act of 1858. This was a proposal made by thirty-five gentlemen, whom he might consider as the only remaining shareholders who were able to pay. He assumed that most if not all these persons were engaged iu manufacturing or trading occupations in, or in the neighbourhood of, Newcastle, and of course not only their means of subsistence, but of paying any debt that they owed, depended not simply on what property they might happen to poetess at this moment, but on their being able to carry on their business. No doubt a creditor had • right to say that he would not accept of any nompromiso from his debtor, but that he would make hint pay at once, and that he did not care if it ruined hint ; and he (the Vice- Chancellor) had no right to force a creditor to take any other course, though he might beef opinion that that other course might be for the creditor's interest. These 35 shareholders had discussed the matter inter se. They had not disclosed their circumstances to the world, but they had come to the conclusion that amongst themselves they could raise a certain sum, and that they could not pay it at once, nor from their own resources, but with the assistance of their friends they could raise this amount,, but that the disclosure of their circumstances to the world at large would be inju rious to them. It was impossible to deny that they took a very wise view. They said they had no objection to the liquidators being made acquainted with their circumstances, as they could confide in them, and the official liquidators, judging from the inquiry they had made of these share holders themselves and indirectly of their neighbours and others, were of o pinion that they had offered in the we pt, as much as ooukl possibly be got out of them, and that It would be extremely beneficial to the creditors to accept the proposal. In ordinary cease which had come before him be bad required an affidavit of the parties where there was no sort of opposition. But this wee a case of a peculiar character. It was not • proposal to compromise with A, he paying so much, or with B, he paying so much, but it was a proposal to compromise with thirty-five shareholders in the aggregate. By the set of 1856 power was given in the 90th section to the official li quidators, with the sanction of the court, to do carbon things, and among the rest to refer disputes to arbitration. Then there came the act of 1857, and the 16th section of that act gave the power to compromise debts and claims, but there was • proviso that no such compromise should be made except with the sanction of the court, and aftorgiving notice to the creditors, and except with the sanction of a special resoluttou of the creditors. It appealed to hint . that the effect of that was that the court might proceed (pving notice to such of the creditors as the court might direct, but it was not imperative on the court to require notice to creditors. He had, however, always required notice to be given to creditors or classes of creditors. He now came to the 19th section of the act of 1858, on which after all this question depended. It first repealed the 16th section of the act of 1836, and it went on to enact that the official liquidators should have power to enter into compromises or calm or claims with the shareholders. Then came the proviso that where an order baa been made by the court for winding up a company compulsorily, which was the cam with regani to the. company, no such compromise should be nude except to aooordance with the direction of the court as ex pressed gererally in any order made by the court, or as given in each particular case, and after giving such notice to creditors or any portion of them as tit* court should direct. It came then to this, whether he being piled upon to give • direction in a particular case—if this could he milled articular Lase which was an aggregate of 36 cases — coul d give such a direction without being able to form in his own mind au independent conclusion as to whether it was right and proper that he should do so. He had not the smallest doubt that the official liquidators had arrived at a correct conclusion, and one which would be most beinificial to the creditors. It was suggested that a sealed paper should be shown to him stating the circumstances of each individual shareholder, bat he declined to have matters communicated secretly to him. He had nothing but the opinion of the official liquidators to guide him, and he did not consider that sufficient for him to arrive at a judicial decision, and therefore he was under the necessity of saying that he could not approve of thin compromise. Mr. GISMO sail—Thee he presumed that his Honour would direct that a call should be made. His Honour said that would follow as a matter of course. Mr. lakuule then applied for costs ; and, after some tbs. cussion on this point, Hia Honour aid he would give the coats of an ordinary summon., but not the coats as to the compromise, which was a different thing. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-JuLv 9. The late Mr. Jervis, associate of this court, whose sudden death we have already mentioned in our columns, was ap• pointed associate to this court on his father, the late I,rd Chief Justice, being raised to the bench. Previous to his appointment the office became vacant on the death or removal of the Lord Chief Justice, but under a recent statute Mr. Jervis and the associates of the other courts were appointed for life. The present Lord Chief Justice will have the privilege of filling the office so lamentably rendered vacant. (Sittings •t Nisi Prius in London.) . - Two courts sat to-clay. The first court was occupied all day with a part heard cane in which the validity of the sale by • clerk of his master's whole stock in trade waa raised. The trial was not concluded, and we therefore postpone our report. In the second court the cases tried were of no public interest. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER.—Jtax 9. Sittings in Error.— (Before Mr. Justine Wightnan.) BANTON AND °MEM r. ILLIAGE AND OTHERS. The question in this case was whether the defendants, being directors of an association carrying on mining opera tions within the Brazils, were bound in Great Britain to fulfil a contract which they had entered into with the plaintiffs to sell them a number of slaves, amounting in value to 32,0001., such slaves being employed in the Brazils. The plaintiffs paid 1,000/. deposit on the transaction, but the defendants now pleaded that the contract was illegal and void. The case came before the Court of Common Pleas, on demurrer, when judgment was given for the defendants. Against that decision the plaintiffs brought error, and the case was argued some time since. Mr. Justice Wightman now came into court and delivered judgment, and said that the judges of the Court of Error were divided in opinion. The Lord Chief Baron and him self were of opinion that the judgment of the Court of Com mon Pleas ought to be affirmed, but the majority of the judges thought that as the transaction took place in a foreign country, where the selling of slaves was legal, the contract ought to be held good, and the judgment of the Court of Common Pleas moat be reversed accordingly. Judgment reversed. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (Before the Common Serjearst) Robert George Deane, a young man of gentlemanly rip. pearanoe, surrendered to Cake his trial upon a charge of embezzling three several sums, of N., 301., and 10/. Os. 9.1., the property of Robert Will am Robertson and others, his masters. Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Orridge conducted the prosecution ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. F. H. Lewis. This case occupied the attention of the court for a con. siderable time, but the facto couneeted with the charge were very simple. It appeared that the prosecutors carry on • very extensive bususein as glass sod lead merchants, at Falcon Wharf, Blackfriars, and the prisoner went into their service as clerk and travelling collector in 1832, and his salary at that time was 2001. per annum, with an allow ance of one guinea per day for expenses. It was ad mitted that the prisoner bore • high character at this time, and the utmost confidence was placed in him, and he gave so much satisfaction to his employers that his salary was raised from time to time to 3001. a year, which was the amount he was in receipt of at the time the alleged defalcations were dis covered. In the coulee of his duties the prisoner had of course to travel about the country to solicit orders and to receive money, and the case for the prosecution was that on the 17th of December, 1859, he received a sum of Si. front Mr. Taylor, a customer of the prosecutors, at Oxford, and that on the 21st of the same month he received • sum of 30/. from another customer at Wolverton, and that he neglected to account for either of these sums of money. The third transaction was one of a somewhat lifferent character, it being suggested that the prisoner, who had authority to allow discount to the customers to any extent that he thought proper, had represented that he had allowed to a Mr. Maytown, another customer, at Faversham , 10/. Os. 9d. in the shape of discount more than the sum actually allowed. The prisoner did not appear to have ever attempted to deny that he had received the sums mentioned, but it appeared that upon his being taken into cus tody at Northampton, while upon his journey, and informed of the nature of the accusation that was made against him, he declared that he wad entirely in nocent, and that alth ough he might have made mistakes he could account for every halfpenny that he had received, and he readily gave up all his books and expressed his readi. ness to give any explanation that might be required of him. it also appeared that Mr. M'Lean, one of the prosecutors firm, accompanied the officer to Northampton, and that he shook hands with the prisoner, and that there was some wine in the mom of which they both partook, and in the course of the case it was proved that the money transac tions of the prisoner in the course of his duties here very extensive, and that he frequently remitted so much as 3,0001. cc 4,0001. per month to his employers. Mr. Metcalfe made a very able address to the jury on behalf of his client, and be urged that the evidence failed altogether to establish any criminal intention on the part of the prisoner, and that at most he had made a mistake which, he said, it was not at all extraordinary he should have done when the large extent of his transactions was considered. He then commented upon the conduct of the prisoner in giving up every book that was in his possession, and offering to make every explanation that might be re quired of him, and he urged that this conduct was only consistent with his innocence, and that the prisoner had bceu very unfairly treated by being given into custody upon this charge without any opportunity of explanation being afforded to him. A great many respecting° witnesses wore examined, who gave the prisoner a high character for honour and integrity. The Common Serjeant summed up the whole evidence with greet care and impartiality, and the jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. MARKETS.
