During the week which precedea the day of elec tion (Sunday, the 27th) nes tines were held in the Titri•ele colleges for the purpose of considering Whet CPI. 'islatett should be brought forward. The dif fers :.t political partioa—viz., that of the minis terialixte that of tl:e moderate opposition, and that of tie ashamed party, or party in favour of imme diately pushing matters to extremities on the Roe an DWI Venetian questions—each held their different met-time% in which they .li.etee.e4 mid 'selected their various candidates.

Although the dinette/don was often aid osated, and the interest manifested considerable, I never witnessed meetings carried OD in is more oreriyawllseu g manner. Thusbeforetheday of election tame, acn party had nelected its candi date. and dilly announced them to the public by plac..nle affixed to different places throughout the eats. The candidates held themselves very much, if lost quite, aloof from all these proceeding's. Not only were they not called upon to acidness meetings pub!ielv and answer situati o ns ( a very reasonable preceealing in election matters), but they were also happily spared that irksome task of visiting from house to Louise to solicit votes, which so often places bulb candidate and electors in unworthy po sitions, and leads to great abuses and corruption. On the day of election the voting places (or sections as they are called), uf which each college contains three, four, or DTP, were opened (non 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The proceedings commenced by the electors, present selecting a president and other authorities to preside over the voting, and to see that every. thsiog took place in conformity with the electoral laws .4 the Italian kingdom. At the end of the hall or chamber in which the voting was carried on was placed a long table, in the middl e of whi c h, fretting the president's hair, stood the ballot-box. On one Aisle, and rather behind this table, was a smaller one, to which each elector retired to write upon hie voting paper the name of the candidate he voted for. A small timelier of the National Guard mounted guard outside each voting plate, anal, within, a pecion appointed by the autheritini demanded of every one who enteresl the paper which showed that he was an elector. This piper was handed by each elector (at the moment of voting) to the president, who in return heeded lint a paper duly prepared and stamped by the municipal authorities, upon which the elector wrote, at the side table I barn already menti ed, the name of the candidat e h e vo t e d for. The elector thee folded up this paper and handed it to the president, who then placed it in the ballot-box. All these voting papers thus prepared by the muni cipal authorities were exactly similar in size and esdettr. By means of them alone could the vote bereeurdeal, Mr. I they were procurable only at the Moment of the electors voting, from the ever leut of the polling plate at which the elector thus recorded lie vete. At heir cs'alock the voting ceased, and the pressitleut of each section and his assistants prase Awl to open the hallot-box, count the vote*, awl wad the result to Use mayor or syndic. I spent the whole day in visiting the various ✓etiug places in the city, and never have I wit easeed such perfect order and quiet in any public proceeding. The college which *elected General thahlini by an overwhelming majority, and the secant cellage, where the contest was so keen that neither candidate obtained the requi site legal majeri*y, presented alike the same grati fying spectacle of the moist perfectly free anal orderly exercise of the right of suffrage. Nor from any quarter have I heard of any accusation bought by any party :against another of that corrupt and Illegal influence which leaves but too frequently a dc';. stain upse t our English elections. The general remit of the Milan elections has been the triumph of that usederate party who will sever cease to labour for the emancipation of Ramie and Venice, but who sheire to carry out that object by an active preparatiou which may en ab:a them Is. avail themselves of every cirtimeatance fayssurable to their great and just enterprise, but sot by ruching headlong and half-prepared juts. war, contrary to the earnest desire of Europe and to the Kearns interest of Italy. Such, air, at this important moment has been the worthy spectacle of order, moderation, and freedom presentee' to Europe by the important citv of Milan—that city of whose tor bulace and disorder the Austrian go ecrumeat complained so greatly—that city whose contests in days now happily past anointed in the constant attempts of a die:ou twits' people to throw off a foreign rule, and the ceaerkee effort of a despotic govertinient to rivet more firmly their betel yoke. What a contrast between the Milan of eight year% ago, sullen and plotting, gorged and half stilted by a garrison of lo,oooforeign bayonets, and the Milan of yesterday, flecking quietly alai happily to its voting halls, at 'Riede thent4 stood acme half dozen of Ler own na tio:ad guard, their hardest task that of keeping their feet anti fingers warm in spite of the cold fog which enshrouded the city !

It was only written to show the account, and it had been copied from bits of paper, which he believed were de stroyed. Some of the items had been copied from a book slate. The sherry coat witness 449. a dozen, and he sold it to the defendant at the three dozen being sent into the prison in 40 imperial pinta, no more than a pint being allowed to go in at once. The pies contained rump steaks ; they weighed four or live pounds, and they were charged for at the rate of 7s U. each. Mr. Justice Ryles said it appeared that the bill was dated back, so that it was actually due when it was given, and therefore the nature of the contract was, "If you will advance we 751. in money and goods I will at oucepay you Mrs. Saltmarsh was examined, and in the course of her evidence five cheques were put in, which had been paid to the defendant, the total amount being 201. HA. A number of letters from the defendant to Mrs. Halt marsh titre also read. They wore all addremed "My dear Mrs. Haltmarsh," and contained passages like these : " Mr. Haltmandi desired me to send at five o'clock for some provisions you were kind enough to prepare for me, for which I give you my beat thanks; and he mid you could let me have 2/. ; if you could let me have 3/. I should be Lerimuch obliged. With compliments to yourself circle." " Will you excuse am troubling you on the subject of my letter of yesterday, as I really am in want of some money, and if you could spare even half a sove reign by bearer I should be much obliged. Excuse this dirty paper, ns I have none of my own, and am obliged to borrow of a friend." There were other letters asking for small suns of money, sherry, cigars, and pies. Mr. Hawkins, for the defendant, admitted that his client had received money and provisions from the plaintiff, but he submitted that the claim now made was most exorbitant in amount. Mr. Thomas Fitzmorris Burke, the defendant, said he had been iu the Queen's Prison since April last. The bill, which was dated on the 13th of August, was gives on the 13th of }September. He did not agree to give the plaintiff that bill in couNideration of his supplying witness with um• nor and provisions to the amount of 751. He should not think he received more than 35/. in money from the plain. tiff, about twelve dozen of very decent cigars, and about two dozen pints of very inferior sherry. There were about half.a.dozen or seven pita, and he got a good deal Letter pies elsewhere for 3s. bd. Mr. Justice Hyles—The number of pies charged for is nine. Witness continued—He did not request the plaintiff to make any arrangements with witnees's creditorn ; though he knew the plaintiff did use one creditor named Bidead. The bill was given in thin way. Witness was to get his father', acceptance for 150/., and the plaintiff was to get it dis counted. pay himself, and let witness have small sums and slimy and cigars, but witness could not get • bill from his father. . _ _ 6;iiis-examinal—When he drew the 150 f. cheque on his father be believed be had authority to draw, and that the cheque would be paid. He, however, telegraphed the next day to stop the payment, because be had learned that if the plaintiff got it cashed witness would probably nut get the balance. Mr. Justice Myles said that according to the plaintiff's came the amount of money lent and good. supplied amounted to about 91W,, whilst the defendant admitted that be re ceived value only to the extent of about 4W. 7W., how- ever, was paid into court, end the jury must say upon this part of the came whether the plaintiff, bad mole out Ma claim to more than 70/. As ti the bill, the arrangement seemed to be a very extr.terdinary one ; but it was for them to may which account of the transaction they believed, for if the bargain deposal to by the plaintiff were made it could be enforced iu law, notwithstanding that it might be thought to be an extortionate bargain. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for U. beyond the 7W. paid into court vision% which had seriously affected the contincis previously *steed into. On their ooinmiuion•bueiness there had been a good profit. There had been no accommodation transac tions, and the books had been well kept. The Commissioner—l see there is a " mining adventure."

His Honour said he generally gave the balance in favour of good book-keeping,and would allow the hankrupts to take first•class certificates. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.—JAN. 30. (Before the Chief Commissioner.) IN HE ANTHONY JOHN mirrit. This insolvent, a woollendmper and tailor at Bayswater, was further heard on his application to be discharged. Mr. Bicker Caarten opposed for Mr. M'Gregor, Cheap aide, and also for Mears. Rhodes, Itichardsou, and Ack rep!, of Bradford. Mr. Kemp was counsel for the in solvent. This ease disclosed a novel way of doing business. The debts, in the aggregate, were and the credits 1,8 4 .4/. The insolvent owed Messrs. Rhodes and Richardson upwards of 8001., and Mr. M'Gregor 911. The insolvent admitted that he had pawned a large quantity of goods obtained from his creiliton. He described the method under which the transactions with the pawnbrokers had taken place. When parties cams to purchase goods they reid a part, and he sold the goods, and they were pledged to make up the re mainder. He gave the purchasers the duplicate and the deposit tickets. The Chief Commissioner remarked that the transaction should be set forth in the schedule. The pawning' were omitted from the schedule. The insolvent said thegoods were pledged to make up the money to be paid by his customer,. The haned Commissioner observed that it was foolish to talk of his " customers ;" he had pledged the goods. It appeared that the insolvent had pledged cloth be had obtained to seine hundreds of pounds, and part had been re deemed. In the course of the case several deposit notes were produced to 1071., and the insolvent said they were wrath 100/. more to him, but evidence was given to show that with articles were often pledged to the full value, and were in many cases of no value. The insolvent in speaking of his debts mentioned the "losses " be had sustained. The Chief Commissioner told the insolvent not to talk of " losses ; " he had nothing to lose. The case occupied the court until its rising, and was the adjourned to the 9th February. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Martin and Mr. Justice Wiles.) Moro, A romt row, 30, was indicted for the manslaughter of Caroline Mortlock. Mr. Poland prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Tindal Atkinson. It appealed that the deceased was a widow, residing in the neighbourhood of West liam, in Essex, and the pri soner lodged in her house. He came home un the night of the let of January somewhat the worse for liquor, and an altercation took place between him and the deceased, and the latter went into her own room and fastened the door. The prisoner told her to come out, and upon her refusing to do so he forced open the door, and, aomrding to the evidence of her daughter, struck her a blow on the left eye, and she fell down and died shortly afterwards. There was some contradictory evidence with regard to the fact whether a blow was given by the prisoner or not, and it also ap peared that when the deceased fell there was a concertina on the ground, and it was suggested that she fell with her head against this instrument, and thus received the injury which caused her death. The prisoner seemed to have de clared throughout the transaction that he had done nothing to the deceased, and he appeared to be a respectable bard working-man, and bore a very good character. The jury returned a verdict of Not Witty. - . George May was charged with the manslaughter of James Morris Knight. Mr. Thompson prosecuted. It appeared that the prisoner and tho deceased were both privates in the Military Train stationed at Woolwich, and that on Christmas-dny they bad a quarrel about a pipe and fought. The deceased got the wont of the fight and ran away, and the prisoner followed him and came up with him, and knocked hun down twice, and he was picked up imen sible and never rallied, saddled s few days afterwards ; this event being, no doubt, the result of the violence inflicted upon him by the prisoner. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, lint recommended him to mercy, and he was sentenced to be imprisoned and kept to haul labour for six weeks. NEW COURT. (Before the Recorder.) James Want, a respectable.looking man, surrendered to take his trial for feloniously receiving a number of pewter ts. Mr. Cooper prosecuted ; and Mr. Metcalfe defended the prisoner. The ease against the prisoner was a somewhat peculiar one, he having up to this time borne an irreproachable character. It appeared that be resided at West Ham, near the new docks, where for a long time he had been in WM nem as a zinc worker and Unman. Some information being given to the pollee, they went to his house, and there com menced a search, and in the workshop, and in a basket beneath some rags, they found a quantity of publioane quart and other pots, with the names on them, and all beaten together for inching. Some of the pots were new me., and two of them hiul only been a few days before safe in the house of the ',Ali= whose name and sddrees they bore. The jury returned a verdict of Guittv, but recommended the prisoner to mercy on account of his previous good character. Mr. Cooper Raid that, within the last 12 months, the publicans in the immediate neighbourhood of the prisoner's house had lost, above 300 pewter pots'. The prisoner was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. Jinxes rite, who was convicted yesterday in the Old Court, was again indicted for steeling 5.5 whips, the pro perty of Benjamin Ellams, his master, and valued at 557. Mr. Orridge prosecuted, and Mr. Sleigh defended. lu this ease the prisoner had the whips entrusted to him for sale by the prosecutors, the well-known lino of Picca dilly, and out of them the prisoner sold the number named in the indictment at Cork, where he left one box with the remainder of the whips for a debt. The Court, in this case, held that the offence was com mitted out of its jurisdiction, and directed an Acquittal. The prisoner was then tried and found Guilty of em bezzling the sum of 4/. 10., the moneys of Richard Ford, the shirt maker, of the Poultry. Mr. Cooper prosecuted. Sentence was deferred. (Before Mr. Justice Byles.) Sarah Sadler, 24, married, was indicted for the maw slaughter of William John Brook Collins. Mr. R. N. Phillips prosecuted. The facie of the case have already been given at some length. The deceased it would appear was • man of intem perate habits, and lsome CODUOIDOI existed between them the nature of which was nut clearly stated. On the 1I th of December they were out together drinking, and some quarrel having taken place in the evening she struck him in the head, hut he male no particular complaint at the time, and he died in about a fortnight or three weeks after. wari.s. The nialical testimony was that his death resulted from that blow, but it was elicited that he had been ill-used a short time previously by NOUN men who attempted to rob him. The jury Acquitted her. THIRD COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.) John Jones, 3s, James Srnith, 2A, James Wren, 26, Thomas Hudson, 29, and Thomas Ball, Zl, marines, were indicted for a robbery, with violence, on Patrick O'Brien, and stealing from him divers moneys, value 19e., and after wards feloniously wounding him. Mr. Langfonl awl Mr. W. A. Holdsworth prosecuted. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor (a sea- Man in her Majrty's ship Cumberland), whose head was most fearfully injured, that in the evening of Christmas. day ho and some of the prisoners were drinking together at carious public-houses in Woolwich, and shortly after 11 o'clock he was in company of four of them, in • place. called Mount Garret-square, when he was knocked down and severely kicked about the head, and whilst in that posi tion they rifled his pockets of Ws. They then made off, and the poor fellow was afterwards picked up by some per sous who were attracted by his cnes of murder. One of the witnesses, a female, swore most positively to Jones, and said as he passed her he called to the others to come on, as be had got the prosecutor's mouey, and be thought be was "settled." He was taken in a very bad state to the hos. pital at Woolwich, the police having first dreamed his wounds, and be remained there for some time in a very precarious condition. The case Lusted* long time, from the difficulty of identi fying the prisoners ; but Jones, Smith, and Wren being sworn to, the jury found them Guilty, and acquitted Hud son and Ball.. Itwas stated, in answer to the court, by an officer of the Mariam, that the three prkoners who had been found guilty bore very bad regimental characters, and ono had been convicted by the civil law and imprisoned for a robbery from the person. The learned commissioner, in passing sentence, said he never heard of a more brutal cue, and it was a mercy that the prosecutor had not died • for if be had they certainly would have stood on their t rial in the other court for their lives, aa it would have been a clear case of murder. Such men as the prisoners rendered it dangerous to live in a neighbourhood where they were about, and ho should mark their brutal conduct by a severe sentence. They were then sentenced to six years' penal servitude They LONDON Gm=Az OXIMII7II CONYLNY pram* —Trak receipts for week ending Jan. 27, 10,5141.:,. 2d. Mr. A.

MANSION-HOUSE. Richard Corrie Bache, an elderly man of rather gentle manly appearance, who wee formerly the representative of one of the wards of the city in the Common Council, was !rot before Alderman Sir R. W. Carden, in the custody fthael lisydon, the detective o ff icer, charged wit felony. The charge on the police-sheet was embezzling, on the nth of January, 1859, the sum of 421.95. lid., and various other sums, to the amount of nearly 6,0001., since 1848, the pro perty of Elizabeth Gatewood TulL Mr. Lewis attended to support the prosecution ; Mr. Wonteer appeared on behalf of the prisoner. Mr. Lewis, in opening the cane, said that the prosecutrix was a widow lady, who had carried on since the death of her husband, which took place in the year 1851, a very extensive business as • rope and twine manufac turer in Fenchurch-street. The prisoner had been in the service of the establishment for forty years, and very great confidence was placed in him. After the death of Mr. Tull, still greater confidence was reposed in him, and his duty was to receive all monies and pay them into Messrs. Hankey'e, the bankers, and he received a salary of 3001. year, and was allowed a residence. The business had latterly very much increased, but notwithstanding this, the date of the accounts was such as to excite suspicion sod dissatisfaction, and an accountant was called in and the books examined, and the result was thediscovery that there were considerable deficiencies, and this led to the prisoner's ' apprehension. Mr. Lewis went on to explain that the nature of the offence imputed to the prisoner was that iu casting up the accounts in the books, he bad cast the sums wrongly, making the totals smaller than they ought to have been, amounting, of coarse, only for the smaller sum, and putting the balance into his pocket. It also appeared that amounts which ought to have been carried out in the gross column were not carried out at all. There was also a third mode by which the prisoner defrauded his employer, which was this. It appeared to be the custom for a clerk to hand over daily to the prisoner all the money that had been received during the day, in order that he might pay it into the bank, but instead of paying in the whole sum, it appeared that the prisoner had for a considerable tune been in the habit of keeping back and appropriating to his own use a large por tion of the sums he so received, the total amount of hie defalcations being, according to what was already known upon the subject, between five and six thousand pounds. He said that he only proposed on the present occasion to call one or tem witnesses to give evidence sufficient to justify the court in remanding the prisoner, and on the next ocouion he had no doubt lie should be in a position to perfect the ems. Mr. Lewis added that in order that the prisoner should have • fair opportunity of giving any explanation he might think fit, it was stated to him that certain eons that appeared in the accounts bad not been paid into the bankers', at which he at first appeared surprised, and he was then told that he could, go through the books himself if he pleased. The prisoner did so, and he was then forced to admit that there were them deficiencies, rind when he was asked to account for them, be said he should like to check the Recounts with his own private cashbook. This was done, and the prisoner then admitted that he bad paid the amounts to his private hankers to his own account. The following evidence was then adduced : Mr. Archibald Baxter, a clerk in the employment of Mrs. Elisabeth Gatewood Tull, stated that he kept all the books but the cash book, which was kept by the prisoner, and the amounts were dictated by him fur him (witness) to enter in the ledger, and be did not have that book at all in his con trol, as the prisoner always kept it in Lis own possession. The witness then read a number of items in confirmation of the statement made by Mr. Lewis, as to the mode in which the offence imputed to the prisoner was alleged to have been committed. He also stated that the whole of these entries were in the handwriting of the prisoner. In answer to a question put by Mr. Walther the witness said that he had understood that the prisoner had been in the service of the firm for forty years, but had only had the general management of the business during the twelve years which he (witness) had been there. Mr. Frederick Whinney, of the firm of Hauling, Policia, Whinney, and Gibbons, accountants, was then ezamined, and also confirmed the statements made by Mr. Lewis., Mr. Lewis said that be did not intend then to produce any more evidence. He had several other witnesses to produce, and should, if the prisoner were remanded, be able to com plete the case on a future occasion. The prisoner wan acoordingly remanded. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. George White, a carman in the employ of Mr. Garnham, who is employed by Mr. Bell, a large potato salesman at the Great Northern Railway, to cart potatoes, and George Ward, no home, a costermonger, were charged with stealing a Rack of potatoes. The prisoners were seen by Sergeants Bolen, 11 D, and White, 16 D, to remove some potatoes in a van from a sack bearing the name of Bell, into another at the corner of Well-street, and Ward was watched into the house of Mr. Roberta, the Boot, Well-street ; and it appeared that Mr. Roberta, though admitting that Ward was a perfect stranger, had bought the sack of potatoes of him, giving tic and some beer for them (the price of potatoes being about 15e. a sack). The prisoners were then taken into custody by the sergeants, and in Ward's pocket was found the de. he had received from Mr. Roberts. Some other evidence having been given, the prisoner, at the request of Sergeant White, were remanded for a week. lIABEAV CnirtS. Ilr. Croy (of the common law bar) moved for a writ of habeas corpus to hying up the body of William Anthony Frentoti, • prisoner in the Queen's Prison, for the purpose of hi. being discharged. It iipissired that Freeston, who had been a banker, was adjudicated a haokrupt on kith September last, and surrendered. Thu Cth of November was appointed for his List examination, but it was asliourned to the :Ird of Des-ender. Before that i late an app ication was made to the ( t ort of Bankruptcy for what is termed • B A certificate, by which, under the 257th section of the Bankruptcy consolidation Act, be WAR arrested on let of December. tither certificates of the same 'kind were obtained, sail detainers lodged against him. With one ex ceptiiiii, all the writs of execution were issued out of the Ceurt of Exchequer, but that one was issued from the Court of Queen's Bench. A motion was made in the Court of Exchequer for the discharge of the primmer on the grossed that a bankrupt was protected from arre,t until the day of his last examination, and that in this cue, an adjournment had urea made until the :Ird December, and be had been arrested on the lit ..f that month. The e'ourt of Exche quer decided that the arrest was illegal, and that the other writ. and detainers which had been issued since were also void, and ordered the &allergia if the prisoner. When, however, an application wee made to the Court of Queen's Beech, out of which jurisdiction one other writ had been issued for a habeas corpue, that court refused to grant it, on the aoo.d that the prisoner was properly detained under the writ issuing out of that court. The two courts of com mon law being thus in direct cooffkt, the preseut applica tion was envie to this court, and the argument urged, that any arrest of • bankrupt before the day of his last examine. Lion wee illegal. The Lewd Chancellor said that enough had been brought forward to induce the court to issue a writ of habeas corpus, and the points in dispute might be areal on the return. A. the courts of common law had differed, the matter had assumed considerable importance, and it could be heard before the full court. The: writ would be made re turnable on Friday week. THE LASH.

(Cooeißded from yontorday's Express.) --•-- - - - . . After the close of Sir F.

The herd Chief Justice said the aim of the legislature was to place inquisitions upon the same f o oti ng as i n di c t ments , and therefore the court hail power to amend them in mat. tern merely formal. Mr. Justice Crompton aahl his brother Hill reminded him that the eseeption respecting manslau g hter a nd murder only applied where a indolent could be founded on the inunimuon. _ _ The M44icittw.General then proceeded to vindicate the course which the crown hail taken in cloying for this rule. He would not, however, argue that the affidavits which had been produced that day bad not served to dissipate some doubts ; but there remainwl the fact, that 4..aue twenty persons had depcoed that the coroner had used the language complained of, whereby he limited th e f unc ti ons of the jury.

The Lord Chief Justice—lt might be, Mr. Solicitor, that the ouruner wr anxious to prevent the jury from giving a verdict which he furesaw would be mischievour ; and that in ►i anxiety he weed some of the language attributed to him ix the affidavit& — Hr. Justice Wight/nap—You must see. Mr. Solicitor, how detrimental it is to form verdicts upon insufficient grounds. Had the verdictof the jury charged any one with the murder, the party must have been tried at the last winter assizes ; whereas by waiting and by the pronouncing of an open 'robe' time was allowed fur further examination. The Lord Chief Justice- The only iuggestioa is that an other person ought to have been examined who was himself impacted ; and would it be consistent with justice to order • fresh inquisition, in order that that person night he ex amined The SulicitorGeneral could not of course ask their lord ship. to conic to • conclusion differeut from that which the facts warranted, but, in justice to those who had the present application, he was hound to say tarrhtt must have been a considerable misapprehension somewhere. The Lord Chief Justice What we really have to deter mine is, has there been such judicial misconduct as to amount to • miscarriage of justice. All that is charged minst the coroner amounts merely to an act of indiscre- It might have been proper for him to have examined Kent on hie evidence being tendered, but his omission to do so does not reach to judicial misconduct. Mr. Justice Compton—lt sea very nice quoition whether it was not better to return an open verdict than run the risk of having to go to trial in • hurry at the winter assixes. The Lord Chief Justice—ln my humble judgment the coroner would ham acted more advisedly if when the soli citor of Mr. Kent had tendered his evidence the coroner had examined him. But that is no more than an indiscretion. And even supposing that the ommion amounted to such misconduct ea that, it does ott follow that under the par ticular circumstances of the case the writ ad niches in quirendsuu ought to issue. Mr. JustieriCrompton— We should see that some desirable obtest is to be attained. Mr. Jimstke Hill—That public justice required it. After a few further °leer rations from the loaned Solicitor- General, The Lord Chief Justice will—lt is not necessary to give any lengtheueil or elaborate judgment in this 01110. The view of the court has been sufficiently intimated in the course of the discussion. The only ground on which the application now rests is tlic alleged judicial misconduct of the coroner in lemming down the investi i ptioe, and not accepting the evidence of Mr. Kent when tendered. I have already pro nomeed that I think the coroner would have observed • sounder discretion, and one more 'satisfactory to public opi nion, if be had accepted the offer then mete to biro. I can't say, however, that that involves anything more than an error in judgment, and it is not upon an error of judgment that we would be justified in issuing a writ of ail melee inquirendum. I 'or province falls very short of that ;we do not sit here as a court of error. We an• simply authorised to interpose where there has been • 'Masteringe through judicial misconduct. But even if the omiamion of the coroner did amount to a species of judicial misconduct, then there remains the very seriousquestion, whether we ought to issue a writ of further inquiry until we are satisfied as to the scope of that inquiry. Whet we are asked to do here is neither more nor less than to climate a number of suspected person. separately, in order to ascertain which of them shall be charged. We are not here to examine into the policy of the law, but to ad. minister it as we find it. The rule nisi was aco:ntliogly ordered to be discharged. COURT OF COMMON PLEW3.—JAN. 30.

Mr. Pearce and Mr. Martin appearol for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Hannan fur the defendant. Mr. Pearce said the defendant was the son of General Burke, and be had been for some time an inmate of the Queen's Prison, detained at the suit of thirteen creditors, and in all probability be was likely to remain there for a coosiderable time logger. The plaintiff was • publican,who had kept the Baltic Shades, near tho Royal Exchange, and subsequently the King's Arms, in the Poultry. His hominess in the last establishment did not succeed well, and in cons.- , q ience there was a negotiation for the esta. blishinent to • Mr. Median, b u t th e bargain bargain was not completed, sad Mr. Median brought au action, which resulted in the plaintiff becoming an inmate of the Queee's Prison, and afterwards acquainted with the defendant. Mrs. Soltmarsh at this time lived in Trinity•square, and she was constantly backward@ and forwards to the prison. The defendant wrote numerous letters to her requesting the advance of sm a ll sums , f or h e was so distresoed for money that he bad not the means of paying a telegraphic message, or even the postage of letters. la consequence, various sums were lent, and the defendant peel that if the plaintiff, or rather (Mrs. Saltmarsh) for it was her money, would supply him with money and goods to the amount of 774, he would give the plaintiff a bill for U"&. The consequence was that the defendant was sup plied with mosey, cigars, sherry, and • greet number of meat pies, of which Le was particularly fond, tLe whole value of what the ilefernLiut received being about 1001., of which about W. was OWL The bill in question, which warn dated the 13th August, IWO, was given in respect of 751. worth of the property ; and the defendant now paid rol. into court in satisfaction of the money counts, and pleaded that the bill was an accommodation bill.

HANSON—ACCIDIM This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a boy eight ram old, through his next friend, t, recover damages for injuries sustained by reason of the negligence of the de fendant. It appeared that the deleotlant had been the con tractor for erecting a wing of the St. Luke's workhouse, Chelsea, and that the hoarding fell on the plaintiff, breaking his leg. The defence was that the boy was playing with others and pulled the hoarding down, so contributing to the accident by his own negligence. The jury at the trial,which took place at Guildhall a few days ago, found for the plaintiff. Mr. D. D. Keane now moved for a rule to set aside the verdict, on the ground that it was against the weight of evidence. _ _ _ The court granted a rule nisi. BEHRENS T. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAT COMPANY. — LIABILITY OP RAILWAY COMPANIES AC CARRIERS. In this case, which was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover from the defendants, as common carriers, the value of • picture consigned to them and injured, a rule had been obtained, which raised the question as to the liability of railway companies to rimy for the damage of articles consigned to their care. The cause was tried before Mr. Baron Bramwell. at Middlesex, and resulted in • verdict far the plaintiff, under the following circumstances : The plaintiff had in May last sent a valuable picture by the defendants' line to Neseastleon-Tyne, declaring that its value was over 100 f.—thin declaration having been made to the driver of one of the defendants' carts, which were sent about to customers to avoid the necessity of goods being sent to the various depots of the railway for the reception of merchandise. The defendants' servant signed the receipt, end by the rule obtained to set aside the verdict for the plaintiff, the question was as to the construction to be placed on the let section of the Carriers Act, the 1 and 2 Will. IV., c. 06, which enact. " that all mail contractors, coach proprie de- 'very carriers shall not be liable for the lola of certain MX above the value of ~ mime at the time of the de 'very thereof at the office, warehouse, or receiving -house of such mail contractor, stage-coach proprietor, or any other common carrier, or to his, her, or their bookkeeper, seaeliman, or other servant, he., the value of such article or articles of property shall have been declared buy the per. son or persons sending or delivering the same." Then it was further enacted that such value being declared an M ermaid rate of carriage might be demanded, such increased rate being set down on • notice to he affixed in • conspicu ous part of the carrier's offices or premises. Mr. Edwin James and Mr. Keane now showed cause against the rule, contending that all the liability imposed on the plaintiff was to declare the value of the goods consigned, and that if the defendant did not exact the increased rate they could not take advantage of the act. r. Hawkins and Mr. Charles Pollock having been heard emirs, The Court bell that if the plaintiff, sending goods by a railway, declared the value and they did not, through their servants, exact the increased rate, they could not take ad vantage of the act framed for their own benefit. The rule must therefore be discharged. Judgment accordingly. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. JAN. 30. Were the Judge Ordinary.) BEWSIJER r, tiILLIANti AND OTHEILR.-JUDOWIET. This cult, which was tried on the 12th ult., related to the will of Miss Darling, who died at Runup* in April, 1857. The instrument was opposed on the ground that the testa trix bed stated that a little boy who lived with her, and who was really the illegitimate child of a relative, was her own, and also that she wee again pregnant. The property in dispute wee 700/. or 900/. in amount. Sir C. Creswell was not satisfied that either insane dela ice bad been made out. That as regarded the boy was easily accounted for by the mystery which had attended his birth ; and if she Lad really entertained the idea that she was t she would unquestionably have commu- nicated the circumstance to her medical attendant, which she had not done. lie must therefore pronounce for the STOATE r. NTOATL• The petitioner, a barrister, bat not in practice, sought • dissolution of his nuirriage on the ground of the respon dent's adultery, which had been establisned by the verdict of a jury. The respondent had, however, previously ob tained a judicial separation on the ground of the peti tioser's cruelty ; and the court under these circumstances bad taken time to consider. Sir C. Creswell now dissolved the marriage. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—JAN. 30. (Before Mr. Comminioaer Fonblanque.) LY ItE JOHN DAUM The bankrupt was described an • merchant of Gresham house. This was the adjourned examination meeting, but no accounts have yet been filed. The case has been frequently before the court. The are between 40,000/. and fill : the assets consist principally of patents, including ODO for a disinfecting fluid. Mr. A. Turner, for the assignees, said that the bankrupt was assisting them in the realisation of the assets, and had no mooey to pay an accountant, or the balance-sheet would have been filed. Mr. Lucas, for an opposing creditor, asked for an ad. journment sine die. His Honour directed an adjournment sine die, with pro tection for two months, and liberty to the bankrupt to come up earlier, if prepared with his accounts. IN RE JOSEPH CLARKE- DIVIDEND. The bankrupt was a tanner, of Kidderminster. This was • dividend sitting. The pnitifs against the estate amount to (MOM., and the assets in hand to about 9,000/. Mr. Murray, representing the assignees, stated that shim the last meeting (on the 23rd inat.) the bankrupt bad died, on Sunday last. The amount of dividend cannot be accurately ascertained at present, but will be shortly advertised. The bankrupts were ship-store and commission merchants, of Little Tower-street. This wee the certificate sitting. The liabilities are 7.7001. ; assets returned at 3,0001. The seeeanta were prepared by Mr. Hutton. Mr. Lawrence, on beha lf at the bankrupts, asked for • first class certificate, to which the assignees did not object.

Mari Rice, a well-known convicted thief, was brought before Mr. Conibe, charged with stealing two pint pewter pots from the Anchor and Bight Bells public-house, Ber mondsey-street. Mrs. Sanders, the wife of the landlord, said that the pri soner came into her house several times the previous evening, soden one occasion she missed& pot from the tap-room after she had left. About seven o'clock she entered the house again, and was served with half a pint of beer in a pint pot. Wit ems then looked a little after her, hut she managed to leave the house suddenly, and then she missed two pint puts from the counter. She instantly called the potnian, and directed him to pursue thener and bring her back. The potnian said he priso had seen the prisoner in the house several times the previous evening, and he knew her well. As sooner his mistress told him aboutthe pot, he wentafter her and stopped her, when he perceived the handle of a pot peeping from under her shawl. A constable came up at the time, and the two pots produced, belonging to his master, were taken from her. Mr. Combo asked if she was known ! John Marsh, 184 M, said he knew her to be a pot.stealer. In July last she was tried and sentenced to six weeks for pot-stealing. The prisoneracknowledged having been convicted, but said it was wrongfully, as some one put the pot in her pocket at that time. She know nothing about the pot in question. Mr. Comb. told her that she must make a jury believe that, therefore he should commit her fur trial. He had no doubt as to their verdict. Committed accordingly.

Francis Kelly, a police-constable, No. 130 H, stated that he hail been continually called upon to suppress rows and lights in Rosemary-lane, and it bad become worse since it was re-named Royal Mint-street, from its contiguity to the Mint. On TllCllday night there was • regular Irish row in Glass house-street, leading out of the lane. He was sent for, and informed that a child had been killed with a tin pot. He went there, and found the place in an uproar, and the old woman Lakeman on the ground and • baby near her. There was a regular fight and " hullobooloo" among the Irish there. The old woman gut up like • giant refreshed, and commenced fighting, and a general row ensued. Mr. Yardley—Everybody fighting with everybody! Kell No, sir; they were matched. Regular sales. Mr. Yardley—And were the prisoners all on one side? Kelly—Mother and daughter were ou one side, and fought dee_ perately. Mrs. Lakeman here said—lt was the dhrop taken, yer banner's wortchip. I don't know how it began or how it ended. Shure now, I had a crack on the head. Roche, the gaoler of the court, said the Lokernims were continually ergaged in the faction fights of Rosemary-lane, alias Royal Mint-street, and the girl once cut a man's head frightfully with stones. Mr. Yardley—She is an improvement upon her mother — that is, she is much worse. Kelly said he took the wounded child to the hospital. It was one month old, and the doctor said it was very much injured. Mr. Yardley—A chance blow, I suppose Kelly—l believe it was. It was struck with this tin pot. He produced one, which was tattered, and there were stains of blood upon it. It had done service in the row. Mr. Yardley &eked i: the girl lakeman lux' been in prison before, and Roche said that she had not. She charged a man with beating her, and it turned out she beat his head with stones. Mr. Yardley sentenced the old woman, Lakeman, to seven days impris.mment for being drunk and disorderly, and discharged the other prisoners.
