RSIJSr. —Lad night an tf~gppee,gate meeting of medical students was held at St. Karin. R Hall, for the purpose of considering the present system of Poor.law medical relief. In the absence of Kr. Pigott, M. P., who was prevented from attending Illness, Mr. Potts, MP. for Barnstaple, was called to tie chair. Mr. Eines' Hatt, chairman of the studeats' ousznittee, moved the Ant resolution, to the effect, that the existing system of poor law medical relief is frauOt with dangers which call for immediate relief. These denims were of a two-fold character —dangers to the poor, and dangers to these who support the poor. In advocating the interesta of rww.law med ics ) officers they were not only advocating the mitered' of a few hundred highly obviated individuals, but the interests of the whole medical profession alai the helple-m Rick poor. Mr. Griffin, of Wey mouth, seconded the resolution, whi-h was supported be Mr. Holmes Conte, and unanimously adopted. Kr. C. H. Fagge moved the second resolution :—"Thet the present system grievously injure. the efficiency of the relief afforded, crippling the resources, limiting the power., and lo the standard of skill among th e ad. isixtrators of t relief ; soil that the remuneration &Minkel is inadermate to the labours which are demanded o f them, the skill which thej press, and the expense' isei.lental to their position. The motion. haring been a p r on led by Mr. Sutton, we. adopted. Mr. W. F. Taman, of University College, moved "That SA the grievances set forth also injuriously affect the medical care and well being of all the poor throughout the kingilotn, they are well de erring the attention of parliament. " Mr. W . Brett, of We•tmituter limpital, seconded the resolutice, which wad unanimously carried. Resolution, were al., paned urgently rolling upon the House of Commons to take the ease of the Poor•law medical Akers into their various ausoleration. and to par such measures Si are cakuhried to m.-id the evil, complained of, sad thereby obtain more affleumit relief to the Rick poor. A petition to parliament foeueled on the rmilutions was also agreed to.

Sittinp in Beam.—Wore Lord Chief Justice Erie and Jo/tiara WWiams, Wilke, and Keating.) ax PARTS SWAN AND THN NORTH 81L1778H AONTIALLS 001IPLICT.—nffOSTONT QOZSTION AS TO SLIM The facto of the case were shortly these. Mr. Swan bad purchased 1,000 shares in the North British Australian Company, for which he became duly registered, and deposited the certificatesx, in • box, which was kept at his tankers. Subsequently he discovered that then shone had been taken from the box, and had been trandenved by his broker, Oliver. who was subsequently convicted at the OM Bailey. The deeds used for this purpose had hem sigma he Monk by Mr. Swan, with the view of Inneferring soot other shares. Since this time the shares had bees lota trans ferred in a bone Me maw to other pantheesse for valuable consideration. A rule was however moved for, calling upon the company to show as.. wip they ahead not rectify their register by reeinenting the ems of lir. Swan as owner of those shares. The make was signed, and subsequently, at the moose et the cow* there we • epo de' argument upon the quietism whether the mike weld have their rights decided by . say prossednge et law Of in equity other than by Janice in this eon* sad without ap peal. Today the judge. pee their Malin& The Lord Chief Jostles mid, that sithonik the deeds of transfer as between Swale and Oliver were null sod void, yet as between Swan and • par:chant for nine an the faith that they were valid, they might be valid to pen the pro pert if not directly yet indirectly, by enoppig liven from setting up his right against sore perchani. - Him lordship, after referring to various authorities ss to ne gotiable instruments, said that, in his opinion, the principle of the decisions applied equal t& to instrumen which were not negotiable. The print whose neg li gence had enabled his agent to cheat a t ' party acting with ordinary caution, was universally eetopped from denying the authority of the agent. This doctrine of to validate transfers seemed essential, for otherwise rs t erer el of shares might possibly receive the purchase money, and yet afterwards recover bath the .ehassec of their value should rise or he should wish to rescind. The doctrine of exonerating the party who has acted with due care, and of throwing the loss on the party who has caused the loss by wilful imprudence, must always operate to promote the sub stantial interests of commerce without introducing any per nicious uncertainty. Then came the question, did Mr. Swan by his negligence enable Oliver to cheat the parties to whom he sold the shares, by means of the transfers in question? He tho ugh t the answer must be in the afiirmative. Acco rdin g to the bth and 6th re gulations of the company, the holder of a share might transfer it, and the transferee might accept it by • deed of transfer, in the form approved of by the directors. The transfers executed in blank by Swan, and entrusted by him to Oliver to fill up, were in the form approved of by the directors, and they alone would pan the property. Mr. Swan gave to Oliver the number of transfer deeds list he asked for, without inquiring whether they were more than were requisite fur that particular purpose then in hand. He took no are by inquiry, or by examination of the register, or in any way, to see how they had been need He put them into hie heed,, not only to be ailed up, bet to be attested, although the filling up of • . deed by not authorised by the deed would be void, and al h the attestation would be signed by • witness that not truly attest. Furthermore, although the certificates were locked in a box at the hank, yet Swan trusted the key to Oliver to get the shares that ewe to be tranderred, and at the same time, or by the same key, he probably bad an opportunity to take the certificates of the other shares now in question. In this he thought Mr. Swan was guilty not only of the negligence of extreme trawl in Oliver, but also of misconduct in planning that Oliver should issue teaaden ea valid which were neither properly executed nor atteseed. This negligence and misconduct were as Jinni- Testily neweeted with the cheat by Oliver as the wrongful filling up of • blank acceptance was with the attempted cheat of the holder. Then did the third party act with ordinary care in paying on these transfers! They were re ceived by an established broker, fully accredited by Swan; they were aped, sealed, and attested, exactly the mine as those which lir. Swan intended to pass as valid, and in respect of which he had received the purchase-money. Mr. Swan intended that • purchaser might properly receive and pay for them, and he could not afterwards say that there was any apparent difference between them and the transfers now in pute. As to one set of transfer. Mr. Swan said he authorised them, and as to the other that he did not ; but that was a matter which the purchaser could by no examination of the documents discover. Neither was it negligence in not going to the attesting witness to inquire about the deeds, for there was no evidence of such • course being usual. It was objected that the certificates were stolen, and that no property in them could be acquired from the thief ; but the answer was that the certificates were neither the shares nor the title to the shares, they were only as indication of title, which a purchaser with ordinary care would inquire for. In this cue he did so, and it was probable that Mr. Swan by incautious trust enabled Oliver to produce them. For these reasons he had come to the conclusion that Kr. Swan had not proved his title to the shares in question, and that the rule should be discharged. Mr. Justice Keating concurred in thinking that, under the circumstances, M.r Swan had not entitled himself to claim the assistance . of this court as against innocent parties, in order to get rid of the consequences of his own negligence and the effects of his misplaced confidence ; and that therefore the rule should be discharged. Mr. Justice Williams was of • contrary opinion. The affidavits disclosed that Mr. Swan's name was formerly on the register as owner of 1,000 shares, bat was removed therefrom and other names substituted for his, by reason of tnnsfers purporting to have been executed by him, but which were forgeries of Oliver, who had on other oc casions acted as Mr. thean's broker. The application to reinstate Mr. Swan's name was resisted, upon the ground that the forged transfers paned the shires to bona fide buyers of the shares, and that Oliver was enabled to perpetrate the forgery by the carelessness of Mr. ftwan,who had been induced by Oliver to one for another pupa's transfers in blank, which he fraudulently filled up with the transfer of the shares in question; and it was contended, first, that under such circumstances the transfer was bind* as against bone fide buyers, according to the principle In Young v. Grote, and other cases. It wee farther said that the court ought not to deal with such a serious qua- Jinn as this on motion, eepeodally as there was no appeal against their decision. The court must necessarily feel nest reluctance to decide without appeal questions of this kind, on which the right to property of an enormous amount might depend, but the language of the legislature admitted of no doubt that it was made their duty so to de cide. But the question remained whether Mr. Swan bad lost his right to the shares. His lordship, after referring to vinous cases as to bills, maid it seemed doubt ful whether the case as to the liability of • man who signed a blank bill or note or cheque was founded on the doctrine of estoppel or on the law merchant, but it was, however, plain iV abie that none of tile decisions as to the e ff ect of ' instru ments in blank extended beyond the case of in urement., and it seemed to him that it would isomer nient and dangerous to apply the principle of them any further. He thought that the conduct of Mr. Swan in signing the blank transfer was not such that a man of ordi nary prudence and caution would have been taken advan tage of by filling up the blank with a transfer of the shares in question. When that had been done two things more must have happened before the transaction would hare been ]perfected. Some pence must have been found either an dishonest or so careless as to at test Mr. Swan ' . execution without any letter or voucher from him in any way authorising or recognising the transaction ; and secondly, the bankers with whom the certificates of the shares had been deposited must have been guilty of negligence in allowing them to be abstracted. It was one thing to say that a MD should be auswerable for such immediate consequences of his seta as a reasonable man aught well foresee and dread, and would therefore shun ; bat it waa another and a very different pro= to maintain that • man should forfeit his property he had duce an act which would not In perilous unless others were also guilty of misconduct which that act did not cane. He was of opinion that the rule ought to be made absolute, bantams he thought that the title of the shares had all along remained a the applicant. Bat it was said that inasmuch as by this statute a motion might be mule either in a court of law or equity, the legislature must have intended that the rights of [ the penises should be regulated by the doctrines 1 of both courts, and cases were cited to show that in • court of equity no relief would be afforded to the applicant I. this case as spinet an innocent purchaser for vales. Bat it was not proper, be thought, to inquire whether the Court of Chancery would afford any relief in the exercise of it, ordinary jurisdiction. If the statute meant that the courts • might be required to rectify tie register by makiag an eider i that the name of him who should Ise town' to have the right to the shares should stand them, both court' must take the • same COUP* of ascertaining who Ind the title, and making I or refusing an order scierdingly; only with the obvious • consequence that, if the applece t ion be made in a court of • law, regard mast be had tolled as well as equitable title. i Mr. Justice Willem coat:owed in thinking that the rule I should ha made absokte. _ _ .. .. .. . . 71ea Judaea Were tharefore aoaa➢y divided in opinion, and amesquantly no dead= was arrived at..

The following additional evidence was brought forward in support ti f the prosecution of the Weimensteina Auguste Bodfeldt deposed that she lived in the same house with Elise Weltzenstein, in Oherlotte-street, in the year 1867. She had a child. Madame Jourdan used to visit Madame Weltsenstein, and ads told her to tell the " old gentleman," when he eanm that the child was not hen but Madame Widtamstela'a Mamas Jourdan and Mr. Stohwaaeer came to the hems me day, and witness was told to go and say to him, formally, that the child was not her child.

Evidence was then adduced to show that the letters pro duced by the defendants Jourdan and Elms Weltneostein at the trial in the Court of Queen's Bench aa haying been written by the prosecutor to the latter were not in his handwriting. Mr. Bennett and Mr. Hibbit, the shorthand writers who took notes of the evidence given by the defendants in the Court of Queen's Bench in the action spinet the prosecutor M. Stohwasser, were then called as witnesses, and the transcript, which extended to very great length, was read by the ofßcer of the court. The material portrons have been given in the courts of the trial. An interpreter named Albert proved that upon the mei. eke oohs trial in the Queen% Bench the defendant Edward Welternitein spoke tokinisen the subject of theaction, and said that M.

In answer to questions put on behalf of the defendants, this witness said that he had previously acted as interpreter fer Madame Jourdan, and as she could not give him money, he accepted some embroidery from her, which he afterwards sold for 21. Bows other documentary evidence was then put in, and this closed the case far the praxutron. The court then adjourned until this (Wednesday) morning. THE ROBILST AT THE UNION BANE. In the course of the day the grand jury returned three true bills against William George "%Winger, the late cashier to the Union Bank, for felony. Just before the court was adjourned, the prisoner Wei. George Ps!linger was placed at the bar, and he pleaded guilty to all the charges preferred against him. • Sentence deferred. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before the Arislent4odge.) FAIT CASZ.. .lompis Lucas, ;13, described as a clerk, but who was stated to be • commissioned officer in the army, was in dicted for stealing a portmanteau and other articles, the proltertfienry John Wilkinson. Cooper, instructed by Mr. Wakeling, was for the prosecution. The prisoner was not defended. The prose. cution really was by the Great Northern Railway Company . . The prosecutor was Captain Wilkinson, of the 9thßegi ment of Foot, and it appeared that he aims to London from the north on the 31st of Jenuary by the Great Northern Railway. Os arriving at Hieg's-eroes he missed • portmanteau, which he had seen ode on the rail at Dar lington, with other portions of his logpge, the value of which, with what it contained, wee over 60/. The port manteau (produced) was the one be lost. It was re turned to him about • month after the theft, mid several articles (produced) formed part of the contents. The prisoner on the night of the robbery took up his abode at the Timis tack Hotel, Covent-garden, and had with him the portmanteau I i n question. After staying there some days be wee missed, and the portmanteau, which he left behind, was ultimately given up to Mr. Williams, police superintendent of the fOireat Northern Railway. The prisoner pawned many of the articles taken out of the portmanteau, and he was taken into custody on the 26th of April. through the instru mentality of an assistant of Mr. Attenberough's, 19, Picca dilly, with whom he had pledged some of the things, on his offering another pledge. A cal driver, named Peter Hughes, proved that on the night of the 31st January, on the arrival of the train (nen the north at King's-cross, he took the prisoner, who had with him the portmanteau pro duced, which was placed en the cab by one of the porters, to the Tareitook Hotel, and a young woman, between whom and the prisoner there had been an intimate connexion, proved that he had given her furs which were part of the contents of the portmanteau. The prisoner, when before the magistrate, said, " I received the portmanteau the night it was stolen without knowing it had been so taken, for the purpose of disposing of its mutants. My cormexion with the person from whom I resolved that portananteeu has since become of such a nature that I must allow the law to take its course without giving any . information as to the person from whom I did receive it." The prisoner, in his defence, mid— My lord, the unusual coarse adopted by me in declining all legal assistance moat, I have no doubt, appear strangely inconsistent with the statement I made at the police court, and to which I now solemnly adhere—namely, that in sue unfortunate transac tion for which I am here to-day I was but an agent, with out guilty knowledge or intent. I am, therefore. constritined to trespass for • few moments upon the time of the court with • view partly el engdithaing to tome extent this strange courlact, ma for the purpose of making a few oboes venom upon the port I have orsasd in this painful bunnies. Against the evidence that has been brought forward I have no objection to urge, It proves beyond all doubt or question the possession and disposal by me of the lost property—points, my . load, whisk I have never disputed. I acknowledge having received the port manteau upon the platform of the great Northern Rail way, disposing of a portion of it. contenta, and receiving for my own use a few trilling articles that have been accounted for 112 the evidence ; and for the purpose of furthering a private object I agreed to remain some days at the Ta• restock Hotel, provided my expenses were paid by thorns for whom I acted—my own means not enabling me to bear any unusual expellees. In pursuance of that agreement, upon my leaving the hotel I wrote to its proprietors to date that my bill would be settled b a friend. Such, my lord, being the case, it will natoxallj be sighed why I, the in nocent agent, would not coossat to prove myself so by at once denounsig the grionipals, and permitting the law to deal with theta as well sa with me according to our de serts. lam painfully aware that such would be the course most coosistent with reason, with innocence, with mom antecedents, with that dog which I owe to my family end to society, and that any other course armed to have its origin either in insanity or guilt. Fully appreciating this rearming, end knowing that the course I have adopted must,. without something approaching to a miraculousinterposition, end in my own ruin, why do I persevere in it? I can only reply, my lord, that in d what would appear the honest and straightforward a cote th if should be incurnng greater moral guilt than if I had redly committed the crime with which lam charged. It would answer no purpose, your lordship, even were I at liberty to do so, to detail the history of my connexion with those for whom I fear I must suffer. Suffice it to say, then, that the compact by which I am bound eriginated in no tie of wilt, though it has terminated in undoubted crime on one side and its most fearful conescietenoss upon 1 the other. It is my intention, as soon as my Este is dr I tided , to furnish such inform ation se may at leant lead to the recovery of property which I have now at kest reason to rasped hes been unlawfully sapient. And though, my lord, it is to me forlidden to give 10 *ea the actual per petrators of the crime for which I ,am here, I. have but little doubt that before the expiration of the punishment which I fear the law must award to me, their career shall have been closed, and the secret of my apparently strange conduct be made clear. . — The - Lc f e then gummed up the evidence, gad said, irrespectively of non-denial of the fact by the pri soner, it would be bard to come to any other conclusion than that, upon the use am proved and not disputed, the prisoner was guilty of the charge. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Cooper said Inspector Williams, of the Great Northern police, had on the preceding evening succeeded is discovering the prisoner's lodgings, where he found a great quantity of property, value between 1001. and SPOOL, the produce of railway robberies, and it might be necessary for time to be given for further inquiry, am other indictments would be preferred. No doubt an extensive system of plunder had been discovered. The Assistant Judge said that was not only a reasonable but a very proper course to adopt, and the sentence would be deferred until the next session. SPORTING. DONCASTER SPRING MEETING.-TtriNDAT.

THE REV. JAMES BONWELL. TO TIM EDITOR or THE DAILY NEVII. . - Sts,—Hitherto I have taken no trouble to refute the slanders which, through the medium of the prem, have been propagated respecting myself ; as, in more eases than one, I have long ago determined to seek, through legal channels, for that justice to which, as • Briti s h sub ject, I feel I am entitled. In the Daily Neves of this day, however, there is • para graph which Dot only 0000STOI myself, but which directly refers to advice purporting to have been given by my able counsel in the Stepney inquiry. It is stated that, acting under Kr. Best's advice, I have "re-entered upon the ministerial duties of my parish, upon the smumption that the bishop has abandoned his intention of proceeding farther with the cam." Now, sir, I beg per mission to state that I never consulted either Mr. Best or any other persoo whatever on the subject, and that so far from thinking that "the bishop has aliatolcued his inten tion dproceeding further with the case," my taking duty ' was with the expreme intention of urging the authorities to proceed to its adjudication. ' la the paragraph it is stated that I re-commenced my ministerial labours at St. Philip's on Sunday laat, whereas the fad I I have taken the whole of the duties both manila& afternoon, and evening, in the church for the last two Sundays ; and I have the pleasure to inform you that I lave not done so without effect ; for the bishop is now doing what he ought to have done several months since, had he proceeded ,iccording to law, which after recitveisi thereport of the commissioner, required him to p " forthwith." Since the sitting of the commission, I had not had any communication whatever from the bishop until after I took the duty. Whether Providence has favoured his lordship with a son of his own I know not, but had your son, sir, had the mi. fortune to be placed in similar eirc unstances with myself, I ask you as an Englishman of refined edootiaa and Chris tian feeling, would you think it a fatherly act—and ■ bishop lays claim to the title of right reverend father in God—to came to be held the sword of les over the head of a sea for nearly sin months, during which time, if there be say truth at ail in the Christian rel 4, on, a man might have sisowely repented and have obtained forgiveness, even had his f au lt s been as formidable as those which have been laid to my charge - I am, kc., JAMES BOSWELL.

The deceased and prisoner, who were both farriers, had • on the night of Satunlay week, and meeting on the quarrel roVng Monday night, repaired to the Exhibition-road to fight it out by moonlight, when, after seven rounds, which occupied ten minutes, Weller fell by a blow from the pi. loner, and died immediately afterwards. Subsequently a coroner's jury returned a verdict of "Death by misadven tare." . . Mr. Martin, on behalf of the 'mused, urged that this had been a fair eland-up fight, as proved by the witnesses' that the deemed was a much bigger and more powerful man than the prisoner, and had been the cause of the battle. Mr. Arnold said he could not take into consideration any opinions that Ili t have been formed elsewhere upon matters of this or what encouragement they might so & have received. A t was an unlawful act, and the one who caused the d of another while so engaged was tilsof manslaughter. He wished to know whether Mr. could in any way alter the facts of the case. Mr. Martin replied he would call witnesses who accom gie4lthe parties from the public-house to the ground to t,who would prove that the •soaer had a great disin clination to fight, that he wanteA to shake hands with the deceased and make it up, but that the latter had insisted upon fighting, and even dragged him towards the spot where the contest afterwards took place. Mr. Arnold pointed out that these who started from the publicliouse and were present at the fight aiding and abetting in any way were also liable to be indicted. That rule, however, did not apply to casual passers by who merely stopped and looked on. He should wish all witnesses who had given evidence before the coroner's jury, or who knew anything of the transaction, to be examined, that their evidence might be placed upon the depositions in favour of the prisoner. Dr. Christian, of Ovington.terrace, Brampton, said he had examined the deceased, and found several wounds and abrasions on him, a severe jagged wound on the back of the head, and a swelling under the left ear as large as his fiat. On opening the head he found the vessels generally much injected withblood, and the base of the brain had a quantity of blood effused on the left side, which, he believed to have been the nose of death, and blood came from the rup tured vessel. The deceased was not • man of full habit of body, and could easily have bean killed. Mr. Arnold said he could not take upon himself the re sponsibility of deciding this case, and it was his duty to send it to the semions. It was • lamentable thing for the young man before him, as it was pate clear from the tes timony of the witnesses that the light bad not been of his seeking, and had been conducted with fairness ; but he had fought, and in doing so committed a breach of the peace ; and he (the worthy magistrate) was bound to commit him, but would take the same light bail he bad previously na• oeived for the accuied's appearance to take his trial. THE SUICIDI or THE LATH Ma.. SIIWOHT.— Yesterday &Bongo= an inquest wag held before Mr. Brent, deputy coroner for Middlesex, at No. 13, Harley-str eet, o Cavendiahequare, on the body of Robert Marshall Esq., late Clerk of Arraigns for the Central Criminal Court, who destroyed himself by strangulation on the morning of Friday last, in his ll at the residence above-named. Mr. Douglas, the bro ther-in-law of the deceased, proved that he parted with him at his bedroom door at twelve o'clock en the night of Thursday, the 3rd, and was called the next morning by a female servant, who dated that her master had hanged himself. He (witness) went to the deceased's room, where he found the body cold and rigid, suspended Inaba:l from • peg in the door; he was immediately cut down, and medical assistance sent for, but life was quite extinct. Mrs. Straight and family were stay ing at Hastings, and were to have returned on Friday, but the deceased had the previous day telegraphed to her to remain, as he would joie her there. Dr. Forbes Window stated that he had attended the deceased, and found him suffering from melancholiixaccompanied with delusions of a peculiar character, inducing a belief in deceased's mind that he had done something which would render him odious, his that he must resign all appointments, and become a pauper ; and be bad no doubt that at the time of committing the act the deceased was of unsound mind. Several other witnesses, friends of the deceased, were ex amined, who deposed to acts which left no doubt upon the minds of the jury that the demand had destroyed himself while in a state of temporary insanity. The jury imme diately returned a verdict to that effect. MYsrasiona Arram.—On Monday morning the dead body of a man was discovered on the shore near the Potteries, Liverpool. A deep gash was found on the fore head of the deceased, and from general appearance the body had only been a short time in the water. The name of the unfortunate man is unknown at present, but Judging from the position of the body and the fracture on the head there is sufficient to cause people to come to the conclusion that the deceased met with foul play. Tag Immo SALMI.—The quarterly males of indigo commenced this day, consisting of 8,819 chests (including 2,796 chests of old goods, bought in at, or withdrawn from, former pales, and 1,060 cheeks in second hands).

The uneasy feeling manifesting itself from time to time amongst the operatives is exciting continual appre. henaion, threats of 'strike* being a matter of almost daily occurrence. A firm in the neighbourhood of Manchester received a document from the strippers and grinder_ ((a clear of unskilled labourers) in their null, which said, "We demand an increase in our wages to 18s. per week."

This morning we have experienced a nice fall rain, which, if succeeded by a milder temperature, will prove of incaloalable benefit to the country. At our market this morning we had a moderate show of wheat from the wow's, and, having nothing of moment in since Saturday, the trade opened firmly, but transactions were checked by •holders demanding enhanced price. ; at Saturday's rates a good business, however, might have been done. For mediumWisbech red 525. 6d. toll:Is. perso4lh s. was realised, the market being quite bare of choice qualities. Foreign was chiefly held fovea advance of ls. per qr., and in the few sales effected this improvement was established. Flour sold steadily, and pries were sustained. Grinding barley may be written la. lower, 34e. per 448 Ms. having been for Swedish, the demand at the same time being a less than of late. Melting barley acutely inquired for. In other articles no change. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.
