COURT OF QUERN'S BENCH.—TZSTERDAL Ikrnme cs Loma Doi DIY Braxor r. BA.LZ laiD arass.—lnrowuNT 4M; Lord Campbell damea the jUdiment of the court in this ease, which, it will be remembered, raised the question of the connezion between barristers and attorneys. The judg ment was me lellowe In this ease we are valid upon to consider whether there is a rule in the sant iur Gauls which prevents a defendant in &civil suit, is which he has appearel in person, from basin:, in the subsequent stages of the snit, the assi,tance of c tuned instructed by himself without the intervention of an attorney. There his cuteMly been an understat.dibg in the profession to the eff et that barristen should not receive briefs in civil salts except from attorneys, and we are of opinion that it is to the ainatage of suitors that this understanding is acted upon. We think, however, that there is no express rule of law by which such an understanding can be peremptorily geforcsd. In the Curdy CAMS An, the 9 end 10 Vitt., C. 9i, is the only statutory provision of which we ere aware, on the subject, that statute, in the 91st section, meeting that no barrister shall be entitled to appear in the said courts unliss instnictod to do so by an attorney. Tht statutes of Westminster, the first of the 7th William 111., c. 3, and of the 6th and 7th William IV., c. 114, allowing parties to me ks defence by counsel in all curs of fel my, are silent as to the manner in which counsel are to be ins.ructed. This being a matter connec'ed with the pro. feedings of the court, the judges might, of their own authority, have laid down a general ru e determining the conditions under which counsel might be heard ; but no such rule can now be found, nor is there any proof of its existeeee, although it has b: en suggested that the usage which bee prevailed should be treated as proof of the existence, at one time, of such • rale ' although no 'mire ss nosed of it is e'w to bs found . It Is admitted that in the erbsinal courts such • rule does not prevail, mid in all knows instances in which banisters have defended without the intervention of an attorney. i rlit s er:ould be great difficulty in drawing a &nineties foe this punster, between civil and criminal proceedings, and civil and criminal courts. The owners of land, when under an obligation to repair a road, may hi proceeded against by indictment for neglecting to repair, and a mss may be tried for • criminal offence, In an action for a pis salty. Oa circuit we talk familiarly of the crown and eta sides, bat it is to be bmie in mind, that formerly insolvest debtors might have been tried in the Crown Court ; and at Nisi Prim. writs of mandamus and quo warranto, and in dictment& far misdemeanours, may now be tried. Even es indictment for mauler may be removed into this court by certineri and tried at nisi pries. In strictly civil suits tbe practice des not seem to have recently been for the barrister to act without ea attnney, although the practice has not been as strictly uniform as it would have been it reculaeed by law or positive rule. Instances have been mentioned to us In which counsel of great eminence sad high honour have thought that, from the particular circumstances of the care, they were jurified, with or without fee, in holding briefs delivered to them by the pestles, without Ute intervention of attorneys. But there is no decided case which can assist us in this respect. The rises of " The Ming v. Burdett " and of " Moscati v. Lswson " were dad, but in these the question war, whether a party who condinted his own cue could have the assistance of counsel es reglrded such points of law as arose and had to be argued during the trials. The immemorial usage of the profesaiAi has been much relied upon, but it must be re membered that salaam' orantere *listed in England en tarior to the statutes of Westminster; when, there is reason to believe that, after the fashion of Roman patrons, they were in the habit of directly communicating with their elks% Chaucer says: A **leant at law, wary and wire, That ofthagl bee n at the wrier.

Tee intervention of the attorney between the horrid.r and client, has not only contributed to the dignity of the bar, but has also tended to great improvement is the administration of English jurisprudence. Reverting to the practice of former days, we an not of opinion that the onus of proving the non-existence of any rule, like that vo tended for, rests on the defendant. We are by no means insensible to the inconvenience which may arise from this privilege on the part of the client being judicially recog nised, but we trust that it will not alter the uniform practice which has prevailed for about a century, and that the interference of the court will not be necessary to restrain the abuse of it. CUP may certainly again occur, though rarely, in which it may be fit for hamsters to appear in civil nits instructed only by the parties, but, in the main, they may continue to appear ac cording to what may be the etiquette of the profession, for though ever ready to render their best services for the laser tion of right and the prevention of wrong, they will still be at liberty to restrain, for what easy be considered the public good, the employment of their services by such rules as they may deem neeieary. Nor can that highly honourahle and useful breach of the profession be prejudiced by this dnisim, kr it =gall he penal in any person to perform the functions properly appertaining to =temp and their intermediate agency, ix nduetes as it is to the admieistratiin of justice, will remain ucimpaired. At say rate, we can now only look et what the law is, leaving any inconveniences which may arise to be remedied by the authority of the judges or of the legislation. Oa the whole, therefore, we think that the rule kr a new trial =mild be made atnolate. Rule absolute. Tae Quests e. Layman.

COURT OF COMMON PLRAS.—YErnitwa. firrroos ix BASCO.—BII7OIII LOOM enno JCIIIICE WILDS AND MR. TALIFOVILD. BOXiiii V. TEI LONDON AND NORTH WI/TEEN RAILWAY COMPANT. This was an action which had been brought by a ballet dancer against the London and North Western Railway Company, to recover compensation in damages for the loos of a trunk, containing a gold watch and chain, and some valu able theatrical and private dresses. The case was tried at the lot 'seises at Liverpool before Mr. Baron Rolfe, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff damages 401. It appeared that the plaintiff left Manchester foe Rugby on the lith of January last by the hall-peat 11 o'clock train a.m., and that on her arrival at the Manchester station she had with her two trucks one a large one and the other a smaller one—which were directed " Miss Somers, passenger, London ;" and on both of which the word Rugby was written in chalk by one of the railway porters. On reaching Rugby, the plaintiff did not me the larger trunk. She made inquiry respecting it of a porter, who tad her she would find it all sate on arriving in London. This however did not prove to be correct the trunk was not amongst the luggage, and she west to the office where icquiry is made for =Peng parcels, and made a StS,OII2 , at of her loss which was taken down. Enquiries were afterwards made by the company for the trunk, but without success. Some correspondence ensued between the plaintiff, her attorney, and the company, which resulted in the present action being brought. Consul having been heard, Toe Chief Justice said that the can was one of the most distressing that could be presented to the consideration of the court; because ii the story of the plaintiff were a true one, she was in this mitigation that, from being kept out of her property, she was prevented from exercising her profession ; and it must be remembered that the plaintiff did not belong to a high order of &crimes. The plaintiff's case was thus— she had lost her wardrobe, the means by which she supported herself. It was distressing to the court that she should be kept out of her property, as she suet necessarily sutler greatly tar the want of it; but still, at the same time, it was the duty of the court to see that the defendants bad all the kir means of defending themselves against any fraud. In dealing with justice to all parties, the court was placed in* very painful situation. No doubt Mr. Sibley was the witness oe whom the ease chiefly depended, and the question was what account he gave of himself. It speared that be was e witness obtained by means of an advertisement. He (the Chief Justice) did not mean to say that he was not a re spirable person on that account, but persona of a different description might be got as witnesses by means of an adver tisement. What account did Mr. Sibley give of himself in sfildaeit ? He might be a molt respectable person, and be (the Chief Justice) did not mean for a moment to in. misstate that he was not. lie stated that he went to Man chester to search for the register of the baptism of a eels- SO that hie being at Manchester when the plaintiff was there was quite a matter of chases. Mr. Sibley stated that he nu a gentleman ; but when sited at the trial where he lived, it appeared he said that ha believed he resided at Grove Cottage. Now it was desirable for the de fendants to know where Mr. Sibley lived, and it did not appear in hie affidavit that he was only a lodger in a horse, and he did not state when he last slept at Grove-terrace. Looking at the whole description given of Mr. Sibley, the court thought that a rule fora new trial should be granted upon pepped of the Gate, and that the tense should be changed from Liverpool to London or Mid. Mese:. The case might be tried in next term, and the plaintiff, if successful, could have speedy judgment. Mr. H.

This was a ewe or business of dime* brought by the wile, sating by her guardian, spinet her banked. em the greyed of cruelty. Mrs. Sarah Lyne and kw knshead, Mr. Thomas Smith Lyne, were married In September, 1847, and continued to live together until October. 1848, when they separated altogether, inconsequence, it was alleged, of Mr. Lyne's conduct. There was one child, the bens of the marriage. Dr. Jennie on behalf of the wife, said the libel given la pleaded Kist Mr. Lyn' constantly struck and abused his wife, at one time sinking her with a whip, and at another time, during her confinement, refusing to allow her the nourishing diet which had been ordered ; on one occasion threatening her with personal violence, wising her by the hair of *behead and kicking her; so that net only brr health but even her life became endan gered. Upon this libel twelve witnesses had been examined. The learned advocate submitted, upon this evidence there wu sufficient proof of the husband's gross and grievous cruelty, to entitle the wife to the separation she prayed at the heads of the court. . - . . . The Queen's Advocate and Dr. Twin appeared on behalf of Mr. Lyn., and submitted that the evidence in question did not show that the wife's life war in any danger, and therefore, that it was not sufficiNit to found a sentence of divorce. Many of the quarrels between the _parties had arisen from the violent temper of the wife herself. The learned Judge said, without extenuating the miscon duct of the wife in certain respects, he thought, looking at the whole tenor of the evidence, that an exposure of the parties might be: prevented by the court at once pronouncing tea favour of a divoiee. In all cases when there were circumstances which would justify each • pro ceeding, it was tar better for all parties that publicity should be avoided. The Queen's Advocate, having conferred with Dr. Twin, sold he thought he should exercise • sound discretion in leaving the matter entirely in the hands of the court. The learned Judge thereupon pronounced sentence of di vorce ; the facts pleaded being suffizint to show the parties could not live together with any chance of happiness or secu rity to the health or life of the wife. Dr. Jenne, applied for a greet of alimony, and proposed 1301 or 140!.. the husband's income being 3501., and the wife having the infant to support. The court allotted 1201. a year permanent alimony free of properly tax. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.-YESTUDAY. Mama Ma. SAWN ALIPILInIi, MIL J. nice Cassowsax, AIM Ms. icenca WILLIAM% FOROSIIT OPUS THU BASIL OT RUSSIA. 110.511 the learned judges taking their seats on the bench, Said Lawrie., 22, Bernard Gordon, 35, and Sod ials Fader men, 34, were placed at the bar. It will be remembered that at the February session of this court these prisoners wen arrai3n-d upon a charge of felo niously causing to be engraved, and with having feloniously in their possession, certain portions of an instrument purporting to be an order or undertaking for the payment of money of the empire of EAU. sia, without the authority and consent of that motet. Upon this occasion Mr. Huddlestone, who was counsel fur one of the prisoners, put in a demurrer to the indict meat, to which there was a rejoinder on behalf of the Crown, and after a long argument it was arranged that the demurrer should be fully argued upon some Intro occasion, and to day was appointed for that purpose. The Attorney-General, Mr. Clarkson, and Mr. Ballantine appeared on behalf of the Crown. Mr. liuddleatone, Mr. Parry, and Mr. Metcalfe attended to support the demurrer. Baron Alderson. before the proceedings commenced, di rected the attention of the learned counsel for the prison en to the danger they incurred by Insisting upon the demurrer, and reminded them that if the judgment should be against them, final judgment would probably be at once pronounced upon the prisoners, as though a conviction by the jury had taken place. Mr. Huddleaton said that he and his learned friends had considered the matter, and they felt that it was their duty to proceed with the demurrer. The 1 d council accord ingly addressed the court in support of the objections that he had raised to the form of the indictment, and went at very considerable length into the nature of the charge against the prisoners, but es the points raised were reported at considerable length upon the former occasion, and se the objections were entirely of a technical nature it will be unnecessary to repeat them. It will be sufficient to sta-e that the prisoners were charged on a great number of different counts with having feloniously in their possession, and with having caused to be engraved certain por- Goas of an order or undertaking for the payment of money of the empire of Russia. The objections that were taken to the indictment were, first, that the original instrument, of which the forged engra vings were sail to be portions, was not set oat; secondly, that although they were described as being an order for the payment of money, it was not stated whether it was English or foreign money; and with regard to the last six counts, it was contended that they were bad alto- gether, inasmuch as the prisoners were charged in accord ance with the provisions of the act of the 2nd and 3rd Was. IV., merely with forging sod uttering • forged in strument, the document not bring set out at all, or in env way described, except in this general manner. The learned counsel, in the cosine of a very long and ingenious address, urged upon the court that these ob jections were fatal to the indictment, contending, that unless there was an opportunity for the judges to see what the in strument really was, of which the forged engravings were represented to be a part, it was impossible that they could come to the conclusion that it constituted an order or undertaking for the payment of money in a:cord ones with the provisions of the statute. With regard to the last sip counts he also contended that it was perfectly clear they could not be supported, inasmuch as it was impossible to say that the act of engraving amounted to Lrgery. Toe learned counsel in the course of his address said that he had felt compelled to persevere in the demurrer, beams? some of the objections could not have been taken after verdict, and he concluded by calling upon their lordship., for the reasons he hod stated, to allow the demurrer, and order the discharge of the prisoners. Mr. Parry followed, and said that after the very able manner in whicn his learned friend had put the, matter before the court, he felt that it would be unnecessary to occupy any consid-ruble time in the observations he should make. It appeared to him that, the prosecution having failed to set out the original instrument, of which it was said the alleged forged engravings purported to be portions, the question was, whether such an offince was charged in the indictment as brought it within the statute so as to compel the prisoners to answer it ; and if this had not been done, he submitted that the demurrer ought to be allowed. He then proceeded to argue in support of the objections that had been raised. Baron Alderson intimated to the learned counsel that as he would not have an opportunity of addressing the court again he had better apply himself to the other point that would arise, namely, whether in the event of the court de ciding against the demurrer, final judgment should be pro nounced, or whether the prisoners should still have the privilege of pleading to the indictment. Mr. Tarry accordingly addressed himself to this part of the ease, anti cited several authorities to show that although a prisoner demurred to an indictment, it did not deprive ' him of his right to have the charge afterwards disposed of upon its menu, and he said that the judges had in several In stances given a judgment of respondeat ouster, and not a final judgment in such owes. In capital cases this had al ways been allowed, and although he admitted that the judges appeared to have done this in fevorem vitae, or from a humane feeling not to take away life without giving the accused party an opportunity of going into the facts, yet he said this had been the result in all such cases, and he con tended that it equally applied to other charges of felony where the capital peoiabment was not involved. Mr. Metcalfe was heard on the same aide. The Attorney-General neat addressed the court in support of the iodic:meat. Alter calling the attention of their lord ships to the provisions of the statute under which it hid been preferred, he first addressed himself to the consideration of the last six counts, in which the prisoners COURT OF EXCHRQUER—YEBTERDAy. were charged with forging en instrument per &mew 111 BANCO. porting to be an order for the payment of money, and be This being the last day of Easter term, 'event judgments said he should contend that the offence of forgery, which in ware delivered; but the following were those only which pus point of fact consisted in the making of any false instrument, pissed any general interest: was made out by the proof that forged engravings of the RIORT c.

The arguments addition that every person who committed a tortuous or wrongful la sappers of We view of the one were, of Thu Chief Justice said certainly; and if the case were tried at the assizes and the plaintiff sucueded, she was to have immedi►te judgment. The reseon stated by his lordship for proposing to change the venue was bemire it would be as expensive for the plaintiff to take witnesses from Manchester to Liverpool, as from Manchester to Landon, and the court thought it should not be tried again at Liverpool. NEW COUNTY COUNTII ACT. Upon Mr. Lush appearing to support a rule to enter a suggestion upon the roll, under the Counts Courts Act, The Chiet Justice observed that the act was pasted with a view of relieving the courts in Westminster hall, bat there were more applications to deprive plaintiffs of casts under the act than there would have been motions for rules if the muses had bees tried in one of the superitr marts. acmes, entirely of • technical etarairr, and a number of pare Were cited Pr show that the agent of • prisoner demur ring WY to Confess the facts,and if the judgment was against bim upon the question of law, that he bad no right to plead and take hie trial afterwards He rid that the judgment of responder ouster uptat a demurrer had only been given id capital cases, and t►en oaiy as • matter of humanity ■od indulgence, and the parties in the present instance having taken the course of demurring with their eyes wide open, and after • warning by the court r to the consequences that were likely to erne, he sub mitted that t►ere was no groand for granting them that prisilege.

Mr. fluddiestone then replied upon the whole matter. The learned judges reserved their judgment; and the court then adjourned, the arguments having occupied the whole of the day. NEW COURT.-tiESTERDAT. Berms to itscoluma. A FILWILLII SWIM/Lift. Mary Arm Anson, 28,. married, pleaded guilty to an in dictment for stealing a printed book called " A Church Ser vice," valued at 14e., the property of George William Browejoha. There were several other indictments against the prisoner. Not any:evidence was given beyond Shaul; stated that the prisoner had under a variety of different names gone to places where apartments were to let, and making a variety of statements of her respectability, put the persons off their guard, and taking advantage of it, had stolen whatever she could conveniently lay her hands on. The polies produced the record of a previous conviction for felony at the Gloucestershire wises. The prisoner was sentenced to ten years transportation. Dimas TIM COMMON BILIUZANT. COMMITTAL OP A WITNEPA. Thomas Rasaky, 19, 'leiter, was indicted for stealing two pairs of spurs and other articles valued at 145., the pro perty of Musgrove Lamb. Mr. Robinson defended the prisoner. It appeared that the prisioner had been in the service of the prosecutor, a gentleman living at West Drayton, from whese Louse the property had been taken ; and prisoner was detected by the police selling one of the spurs, which was a i silver one, at a silversmiths in the district, to whom he stated that he had bought it from a fellow-servant. A respectable looking man named George Ransley, a gluier, and an uncle to the prisoner, was called and gave him a good character for honesty. The jury found him Guilty. A former conviction in this court in April, 1849, for felony was then produced against the prisoner. Mr. Robinson said, had he been aware of that, he should not have called any evideace of character. The Common Berjeant sentenced the prisoner to 12 menthe' imprisonment, and having called up the uncle, asked him if he knew of his nephew having been convict. d. The uncle said he did, but the prisoner had behaved himself honestly for sometime whilst in his service. The Common Serjeant—Then I shall commit you Into The witness, much to his surprise, was then taken into custody, and removed through tee dock into the jail. CHARON OP DEPKAUDING TIM GLOMS INSIALANCI COMPANY. In the course of the morning the grand jury, amongst other bills that they brought into court, presented iii true bills for felony against Walter Watts, the late (loth in the Glohe Insurance Office. The ether cams dup nod of during the diy did not possum sufficient interest to merit a report. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-YESTERDAY. BOOR/ MR. MISJEAMT ADAMS. ANA • SEMI' or M•UISTRATISS. AN INVETERATE THIEF. _ George Smith, a sharp tasking boy, 12 years of age, pleaded Guilty to an indictment, charging him with stealing front the person of Ann 61mby r. purse and 17s. 6.1. The prisoner's right arm was in splin:s, it having been broken about three weeks ago, and it was a singular fact, that the prisoner picked the pocket of the prosecutrix, with his left hand, whilst his right arm was in the state described. It was stated to the court that the prisoner was a member of a highly respectable family, his father having been exten sively engaged in liminess as a shipowner, and several of his relatives were well knows in the naval and military services. The prisoners real name was Walfard, and a gentlemen named Sharp, a friend of the family's promised to get the prisoner sent to sea forthwith, upon the iipitation of what ever rentence the court might pronounce. The prisoner had already been one voyage to the Baltic, and bad it not been for this occurrence would have sailed to Indio last Thursday. Mr. Hector Rose, a magistrate, said he could net see the utility of packing thieves off to sea. What good would the prisoner derive from going on board ship with the character of a thief ? Ho thought the prisoner ought to hove a down right good flagging in prison. The learned Judge said he disapproved of flogging, espe cially in the ewe of a troy with a broken arm. Mr. Pownell thought it would not be right to order a boy to be flagged under such circumstances. Mr. Roae.said, when they were at a loss what to do with a thief, it was said, " Oh, send him to sea." He knew what sea service mes. end he knew the a ship was the worst pos sible place fora thief to go to. Ile certainly thought the prisoner ought to be well dogged. The Judge—But consider, he has a broken arm. Mr. lioste—Oh, I would'nt mind if he had two broken arms, or a broken head, for the matter of that. lie decidedly ought to be flogged. The learned Judge then sentenced the prisoner t 3 one month's imprisonment, directing that at the saturation of that term he was to be given up to Mr. Sharp. A WHOLESALE TN LEW. Maria Lila*, 17, was convicted of ate:ding a purse con taining money, the property of Tnoins4 Baker Knott, from the perron of his wife. When the prisoner was apprehended, ro lens than seven purses, all containing money, were found upon her. Sentenced to seven years' transportation. THE POLICE COURTS. GUILDHALL. A GANG OP SWINDLE/XL—Mr. Diioo, of the Metropolitan Institute for the Protection of Trade, appeared before the alderman of this court, for the purpose of calling his atten tion to a gang of swindler,, who were nearly ell Jews and Dutchmen carrying on their operations in various parts of London. Their principal depot was at flottou ; they had two others, one at Soho, and the other near the Monument, to which all parties receiving orders from the firm in Holton were referred, and orders issued from the other branches of this establishment contained references to the depot in Ilex toa. Mr. Dixon stated that the following letter had been received by a respectable firm in Worcester, and who, being members, had immediately thought prop, r to forward it to the Metropolitan Institute. Ile directed the alderman's attention to the confusion evident in wriing such a greet numher of lettere that mast issue from each establishment from the fact of representing Ilaberdasber•atrsat to be in Bobo. )haberdasher-street, Suho, London, April 15, 1550. Messrs.

Alderman Copeland said be wu exceedingly Sony to own that there were already too many of these gangs of swindlers located in Landon. lie himself had been victimised, but fortunately fur him only to a small amount ; he however had no doubt but that, through the influence of the press, the public would receive a timely caution, and accordingly be upon their guard ag►inst the practices of the gang to which his attention had been called by Mr. Dixon. MARLBOROUGH STREET. A PUTCOCIOUB Testae.—Sup/is Stanton, a child about eleven years of age, was charged with striding a gold ring, the property of Hannah Lambole, 14, Warren-street, Fitz square. The proneentrix stated that on Tuesoay afternoon she laid a gold ring on a table in her bedroom, which she had occasion to leave for a short time, and on her return she missed the ring. She searched every part of the room but could not find it; and on making inquiries, she was told that the pre select had been seen to leave the room with the rolen ring in her bend. Witness cousequ. ntly sent for a constable and gave her in charge. On tte way to the station the prisoner admitted stealing the ring and secreting it in the dust hole, where it was subsequently found. The prisoner's parents were in court, and, in reply to Mr. Hardwick, stated that sines the sae of four years she had evinced the greatest de pravity, stealing everything are could lay her hands upon. At the age of mil years ehe had been guilty of gross pro li.gsey, and since then she had been pieced in various ay lutes, but would not stop in any of them. Same short time ago she churg•d a gentleman with attempting to commit a felonious assault upon her. The cue was heard at this court, betas the child's statement was proved is be take, the charge was not entertained. Mr. Hardwick said it was one of the worst cues he had sever heard. It was a great pity that there was not inque national asylum for sucn child ten ; a jail was . not a lit re ceptacle fur them. lie then remanded the prisoner until Friday neat. THAMES. AIIitIINDIANT OP TIM LISBETY OF A BRITISH SUBJECT IN Aldilitiuk.—Mr. Coleman, dere of toll Registry-odic* under the Board of Tussle, waited yesterday on Mr. Yard!, y at this ceurt, respecting the men Burns, whose cam has re cently attracted so much attension in connexion with the extesordiug practice of confining fres blacks, no matter what country they sail from, during their sojourn in the slave states of Bomb Americs. It app•ared that Bursts, who, it will be remembered, belonged to the Mary Anne, Cm rain Waddington, and was imprisoned by the 'Mira of Charleston daring the two swaths that the vessel lay in that port, made a declaration before Mr. Yardley on Monday, to enable him to procure a ticket of the registry Mhos. In this declaration be represented himself as a native of Antigua, and when he presented himself at tho repatry office on Tuesday, Mr. Coleman overhauld the returns of all the ships in which he represented himself to have sailed, and ascertained that in all bat eau he was deastibcd as a sales of Boston. Even what going the voyage in the Mary Anne, he was described as of al ; but en vetting to Charleston be mouthed Antigua as his birthplace, hoping, probably, that as a British subject he would be exempt from the port resulations. Mr. Coleman had him subjected to e close examination by ma old naval officer, who found that he knew nothing of Antigua, and in his hap-h: s.rd replies gave the names of places which have no geographical ezi.t eau. Hie account of himself was squally vague. He said his father was taken prisoner during the American war. which ended in 1815, at which rate ►e must be 35 years old, though, by his own statement, he was but 22. The man's statement, added Mr. Coleman, seems altogether inconsistent, and at the cue has attr,,cted atten tion in high quarters, I felt It my duty to silt it thoroughly. As a slave, he would be liable to ►eavy penalties fur moving from one state to another, and It was not probable that his father was in a position to pay them. Mr. Yardley—The man insists that be never was a slave, but no doubt you have fully investigated the case. Mr. Coleman—Under the circumstances I telt bound to do so, a the board, seeing !he atoll:viols attracted by the cue, wished that there should be no misunderstanding on the subject. 1 also Sod from his own admission that assist ance has been rendered to him by the American c dual, which would also go to show that he is a native of America, Mr. Yardley—Well, if you have thoroughly investigated the m met, and have eatiatied youre.lf I have nothing more to do with it. Mr. Coleman.—l have done so, eir, to the best of my power, and I have attended here in coassquence of reports emanating from this court. Mr. Yardle,.—l know nothing of these, but I was about to send for you to ascertain that a due investigation had been made. The matter then dropped, and though Buvus had been hanging about the court in the morning, he did not appear during the explanation. . _ MARKETS COTTON.—LTVISKPOOL, MAY ft.—Steady matket fa-lay.
