With regard to t a t o eztrahme ef the property by Miss • he said he prove that she was a lady entitled to considerable property 'nen relations abroad, sad that a large sum of money actually come into her poererwn about the time the ppawwblrrss was effeated. As to her manexion with Nicholas Dsmtir• be said be was instructed that he should be is a position to peeve that it was merely aecideetol frees the cir monstaam of their being at the muse boardinsphonee ; and as to Antonio, that she had never seen him in bar life. Whether or not Lambs ins acting is collusion with the bankrupt it was impossible for him to tell, because he had left the country and ao oen knew where he was. Nicholas and Antonio Demetrio were also goaa, and It was impossible to produce them ; but he submitted that these circumstances ought not to operate to the prejudice of Miss Marna if the jury should believe that she had made • hone ids per of this property. If she had 'mown there eras anything wrong in the &heir le weeid sek them whe ther she would here kept these bills of leZfromi August October ; and as to her going tot to .ork of them, he sheull prove that she did so under the advice of a respectable solicitor, Mr. Walker, whom she bad consulted upon the subject. Buoy thing connected with the ode appears to have been in due coons The sale was elected through the medium of a highly respectable gentismas. the agent to Lloyd's, and am to the depositing of the other bill of ladle' by the Bonverie, this was merely done in consequence of the ship having bees soma time at sea, as • security, the price having bees paid, that the quality and erudition of the cargo should be as good as it was represented. In addi tion to them facts he should show them that the moment a ' difficulty arose by the seizure of the vessel, which did not arrive until after the bargain had been completed, Miss Martin, instead of k the money, wohuitanly placed LOOM of it in the hands of a banker to abide the result of this action, and security was given for the remainder, and he should contend that her conduct throughout the whole of the transaction had been that of en honed person. What was there in any part of the owe to show that she had been guilty of any hand? It was absurd to suppose that Lebow er Demetrio would hare placed the property in her porno sine unless she paid for it ; and if she paid for it, et war been, mid she wee entitled to do what she liked with it, and had • perfect right to sell it to Merry. Hall. The learned emend then proceeded to comment upon the entries in the book% and he argued that they showed dearly that there had been genuine transactional between Lebow and the bankrupt, and that there was no reasonable doubt tlo.t this cargo by the Gloria had been sold to Lehous, and that he had sold it to Miss Martin under the circumstances that would be laid before them. Evidence WAS then given for the defendant. Aim Mary Ann Bridget Mart.a was examined. The witness was apparently about forty years old, • very lady like woman, and she gave her evidence with the utmost coolness and self-pneeemion. Bhe deposed am follows reside at Lanadownwrow, Nottiog-bill. My mother was a Dutch lady, and upon the death of my parents I came into some property, which I received in 1836. The amount I received then was 1,200 f. odd, from Holland. I also derived some property from my father, about 1,300 t. I have also some money in my promesion belonging to my sisters who reside ahead. A part of this property was invested in Canada, about 2.700 f. of my own, and about 1,0001. of my sisters'. This money was Owed in the hands of my cousin, William Henry Martin, and he paid me in terest for it. I did not get the interest regularly, and consequently called in the principal. I need to receive ten per cent. interest. My col/in Game to Englaod, on his way to Australia, and he gave me an imolai (produced); he paid me at first 2,7011., awl afterwards be mire me a further sum of 1,000 f., and 601. for interest. I know Nicholas Demetrao, from his lodging in the house I resided at. I trot became acquainted with him about . four man ago, when I. was in the habit of vetting a triad at ILenston.

I did sot con sent at first, but on the 16th of August I did ro, and bought the cargo by the Bouverie, and Lambe brooght me the booght note and I gave him the money. The amount was 1,4d01. The signatures to the charterparty and the 1411 of lading wens both in the handwriting of John Lambe. I had uo banker, but I pant out of the mosey I had received from my cousin. 31/.4. Westbrook was present when my cousin paid we the second amount, and she was aware that I hail received some money before hum him. I never saw Antonio Demetrio, the bankrupt. Wawa I paid for the first cargo, Lembo told me he knew a friend who had • cargo of wheat to sell, and he thourld it would be • better investment than the other, and I should make more money by it. On Radar, ti. 21st of August, I all Mrs. West brook were walking in the park, and we met Lambe, se compaied by another gentleman, • stranger. Mr. Lambe introduced this stranger as the gentlemen who had the wheat to sell. He was a young man. and • foreigner, but could speak English.

LIR AND ANOTHEL-•- The plaintiffs in this action are the SWOON' of the estate of James leClure, jun., a bankrupt; and the defendants are Elias Levy and Simeon Sampson, who carry on business un. der the firm of " Elias Levy sod C 0.," in High.street, Mao cheater. The action was brought to recover possession of • oonsideralle quantity of goods disposed of by the bankrup t M'Clure to the defendants under fmodulent circumstances. Before the jury was sworn Mr. Overend, on behalf of the defendants, remained that, as the mai, had already excited considerable disc-melon in Manchester, no gentleman from that city night sit on the jury ; but his lor dsh ip refused to accede to this applicatioe, uWees the jurymen were shown to possess some personal interest in the issue. Mr. Wilde, Q.C., in °peeing the caw, mid the action was brought by the assignees of • bankrupt of the name of M'Clure, for the purpose of recovering from the de fendants a large quantity of goods which were disposed of by the' bankrupt, under such circumstances of fraud on his part, in obtaining the goods from the creditors and of oonnivai on the part of the defendacte, as would entitle the plain ' to set snide those sales andobtain possession of the goods properly obtained. The assignees had felt it their duty, - although the amount involved was perhaps not very large, 'to go to all needful trouble and expense to bring this ewe to an issue in a court of justice, in order to suppress to system of dealing sod a mode of transacting business *hick must be destructive of credit and business in Manchester and other town., should it be persevered in. The charge involved in the present 01011) was • serious one, but he thought it would be amply borne out by the evidence. Mr. James M'Clure the younger hew the business about which they were to inquire that day on the 18th of August in last year, and the period during; which he curried on business extended no further than the 23n1 of September in the same year. lie was a nephew oil Mr. M'Clurp, who had previously carried on the business ; but he had' not attended personally to business since the Ist of J • and in the interval between that time i and the l: Sill of Au gus t, the bankrupt had the enanagerne of the brines, acting on behalf of his uncle. Although the business of the elder M'Clure up to the Ist July averaged • very small amount of money from that time up to the 23rd of September rods to the extent of many thousands of pounds were ob tained on stradit, and disposed of in the way which be would des:nibs. Between those dates the business of M'Clure to' his regular cuatorners amounted to 2791. ; but the present defendants and some other gentlemen, whose names the jury would hear, together disposed of no lees than 2,6541. worth of goods in those few weeks, the defendants being what is called in Manchester " job and fent defilers . " On the 18th of August the younger M'Clure beamse the proprietor of the business, and then enlarged his sphere of action. When he stopped on the 23rd of September he had sold 333/. worth of goods to his regular customers ; but to the defendants and to the otlsor gentlemen who carried on a similar business he had disposed of goods to the amount of 2,133/. Bat it must not be supposed that he got this &moist of money. That was il ie amount they were la voiced at, but the sum he - really received was only about 1,200/. for goods which were invoiced to him at 2,95(/. The mode of dealing appeared to be, that the defendants wane to the bankrupt's warehouse ; they then would make • lamp offer for the whole lot, and the bankrupt would make out an invoice to the defen dants at • figure reasonably below the real value ; but this invoice did not represent the amount actually paid by the defendants, the sum of money actually paid being much below that represented on the of the invoice. The whole mode of transacting brines warn such am to leave no doubt that they were in • state onlicity with the bankrupt, and perfectly under stood what ey were doing. Tbs goods which were sold . were gr y of &standard value, and were saleable at all times in the market at about 5 per cent. below the invoice price ; but they were sacrificed to the defendants at a leas averaging from 20 up to 50 per cent. on the invoice price. They were invoiced to the defendants at a considerable lots, but the money actually paid was much below that, amount. 1 James M'Clure, the younger bankrupt, was then examined at some length in support of the learned counsel's statement. He acknowledged that he knew he could not : awry on the business when he took it. He had taken goods out of the warehouse and sold them below cost price. He also got some money from a traveller and from • customer, and with this money he paid his uncle for the busbies. I Mr. Overene—Then you stole it? W knee'. - Yes. 1 The court then rose, the evidence on the part of the • defendants beir4 reserved for Monday. NORTHERN NORFOLK ClRCUlT—Nozwicx, Miacti 31. Crert. lkos.—(Beiore Mr. Justice Wllliama.)
