Daring tillt minority of the defendant, belied been comenolated from rime to rime with• advencer of money by Mr. itarvey, for which the defendant gave his promissnry notes. %Vh-n be attained the age of twenty.one years, he (in April, 1820) had a i .eetesg with Mr. Harvey, and it was managed between them that :.11 , he vourliers held for the several advances should be given up, w,d that a letter should be written by the detiodant to ',lr. Ilene", acknowledging the eebt which war due to him for such a4lveeces, preparatory to some nines effectual security being given '.l he letter was sawardingly written by the defendant himself, but a Leink.lme an that occasion left for the debt due to Mr. Harr4, the amount of ro,ich it was agreed should he aecertained on a sub. teeuent day. The defendant aceonlingly called on Mr. Ilarvey on day appointed, sad he. himself, atter investigating all the do. currents relotime to the accounts. inserted, 'in figures, the sum of 12191. and a fraetion,.in the blank place left for that purpose. This Mom was not reosidered as any security, but only an aeinowledg. recut of the debt, and the matter was left - for a subsequent arrange. meat. But when the defendant became possessed of property, he wwellmeltward and reluctant in redeeming his pledge to give an amnie seenrite, aid sifter much delay, Mr. Harvey was obliged to bring his action to . retoveethe money due to him. An anion who acconlingly brought , by him against 31r. Revert in the Court of techeques, and his evidence was the production of this Otter ; the netendrint was in Court during the trial, and the lettelsmiail war Rrovedto be in the band.teriting of the defendant, and war even snded to and 'infected by kis Owned, hat not a single objection was taken to its muttentieiry, and Mr. Harvey obtained a verdict. Upon this thedefunlant made (immures to Mr. Harvey to pay the webt by instalment& tint Mr. Harvey did not accede to the prop°. rein", and the defendant then immediately filed a bill in equity against Mr. Harvey, the object of which was to set aside the jut*. mot obtained in the Court of Exchequer. It therefore became ne. reamer for the defenthmt to enter into details, in the course of whteh he stated that the letter in question was written entirely by Mr. Harvey. and only signed by him at Mr. Harvey's request ; that the blank was kit to be filled up by Mr. Harvey ; that he paw nothing of the letter afterwards ; and that the blank was ac tually tilled r r by Mr. Harvey. Upon an answer being pat in by .Mr. Harvey, it was a matter of course to refer the account to a "illaner in Chancery, before whom it became, material to produce documents to support the charges. Mr. Harvey's doetaseent, therefore, was this letter, all the other papers having been given up by him to the defendant when the letter 'nsigned. lo answer to Mr. H.'si atateroent, the defendant thought fit to file no affidavit, in which he distinctly and positively denied that at the teeming on the 24th of April, 111J0, or at any other meeting, it was ever ascertained that he was indebted to him ( H arir) in the sum of one thoosnnd two handfed and eighteen pounds twelve shil. liners and astspeneer or that he ever wrote such a letter or filled up a blank therein with that or any other sum. 31r.lfarvey was greatly artenislied to we tide affidavit, because it not only charged bM with having enramitted perjury in his own answer, but that be had been guilty of freed by tilling tip the blank in question ; and he therefore felt it necessary for the vindication of hie own eha. rarer to institute the present prosecution. By the law of England no man could be convicted of perjury on the evidence of a single witness, became the law knew no distinction between one man and another, butt supposed the oath clone to be as good as that of another. The law did not petit an the question of character. Re should therefore adduce the testimony of at Inca two persons, to neow that the fact sworn to by defendant was false. He 'Wield prove that the letter WWI written by the defendant himself, and alheiiatel. copied at his request, that he was desirous of •filling up thealwek at that dine, and offered to make a mat of doucear to Harvey, but that that graitletnan declined, as seed the blank could recent supplied until ail the vouchers had been inspected.He should alvo prove by a person who knew the defendant's hand-writing, that 1 he graves were written by him, and that he subsequently ackoow. ledetettlett he owed the prosecutor between one thousand two bun. tred pound, and one thousaad five hundred pounds.

Illingsworth. formerly Manager of the concern, ./11r. L. G. Gordon, Traveller to the Company, and Mr. J. Hutchinson. a lime.merchant, residing in Lime -street, ap peared before his Lordship to answer whatever charge might be borough , against them by Mr. Buttevant, the Secretary , and Halley, the messenger of the said Company. The Justice Room was &waded during the investigation by gentle:nett who seemed very Melly to enjoy the scene, which was perhaps one of the most curious everopened at the blansion.houe. ' Mr. toraost.ow appeared as Counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Warsaw as County! for the defendants. ' The Loirn MAYun stated to the defendants, that application itaikiseen made to him on Wednesday, for warrants against them ;nr a felony, said to hose been committed in Crutchedfriers. He had;nor, he said, considered theeliarge (for which see our Mansion tfeayt report of Wedne.tley) one of a feionioas nature, .judging from the statement made to him. and therefore he had granted sum monses. in order to have the matter explained. Mr. LANGSLO A' said be looked upon the case as decidedly felo nious. Mr. Batterant was then examined. He stated that on Friday evening he lost between M. and W., a bill for 12!!. and a fraction; and cash, of which he was in trust, to the amount of SM. besides a that and several hooka. out of the house, No. SS, Crutchcdfriars, trbeWthey bad been deposited. Mt. WATSON asked whether the bill was the witness's property ? Bottevent said it had been specially indorsed to him by a Mr: -- and admitted that it had been given in -mient pay: fete Rome teas, which het n ot yet been delivered. if the bill were list, be did not thick belvould bare been made responsible, except it Lopzened through his indiscretiOn. Mr. Warsow then cpiestioneil the witness as to the claim the Ildired Kingdom Tea Agency Company might have upon the pro. perif described as having been stolen/ ' Lanconcrto objected to the Mention of any parties except 44m0-clients. lie insisted that their propoty had bon stolen, adA tie was determined not to Permit 'arty estrsneous &atter to be oseetta4 upon. 'rho Loon Mayon said, he conceived - Mr. Nl'atson was p•r foe* right an deciding whether the pio:terty belonged to Mr. Ruttevant or to the Company of which that gentletnsn' was Sc. ("AMY! • After considerable argument Upon this point by-the COunsci for tie prosecution, the Lord Mayor directed the witressto proceed. Mt. Reiterant then /sled that he certainly conbidered the bill the • peoparty of thc,Compeny, . lin answer to terergAneettens from Mr. Watson, the witness std teat Mr. Illtogsworth 'had been manager, .and was a *hate. bidder in the Conran but reit! trt of the other defendants was, to ktkohnowledge, a hol d+ 6f - shares in the company. li e did D ot 14151, whetlter shares violet he transferred. Allt.ApottsaLear cam, upon the defendants to answer the quev okapi. likinitei r eik plidoring the books whieh they had stolen. awtt sAiick would Lore the meet satisfactory intelligence ott the sub. :tett The Loup Mayos,—Tbb is rather an odd way of proceeding. You accuse them of having stolen property, and you call upon them to peon your case by producing the property. (A laugh.) It ap pears to me that 111 r. Illingsworth is a partner in the Company. and that the other two defendants have acted as his agents, if they have acted at all. WiersoN then produced the scrip of the Company, and, handing it to the witness, said. " Is any thing more necessary to constitute a shareholder than the possession of that ?" M:itnesa--Thst is a question of law, which I cannot answer. Illr. karrost.ow submitted that the question was one merely of law. _ Mr. WATSOW—The whole matter is so totally distinct from all law, that we must take the law of the parties themselves upon it. (A laugh.) My object is to clear away the mist from this humbug Company, as it has been cleared away from many others. Mr. Haines—The question is, whether the conduct of the de fendants, if it be proved that they have taken away the property, is not a trespass. The Loan MAYOR—It appears to me that the conduct of the defepdants, at'any rate, has been violently outrageous, and I shall hear the whole of the evidence. . Mr. Buttevant, in continuation, stated that upon the box which held the tin-box, in which the property was contained, was written United Kingdom Tea Agency Company." Mr. IV...Tame—Aye, and in the box was contained the whole of the property of the Company. (laughter.) 'Witness stated that Mr. Illingssorth was his brother-in-law. and haul been diticontieued as Manager by the Directors, who g.te instructions to the Solicitor to thews bins to send in Ins mignation, with which Mr. Illingsworth had not complied. The LoaD 'Mae nit —Pray who are the original inventors of the United Kingdom Tea Agency Company ?-11'itness. Mr. Wings worth and myself. ( Laughter.) Mr. WATSON—And you have no salary ?—Witness. If the con. cern succeeds i am to hare a salary. Mr. WATSON—And if it does not succeed, are you reeponsible foe its inane ?—Witness. That:a another legal question. (A laugh.) Mr. WATSOx.—Did you not know that Mr. Illingaworth went to Mr. Peter Moore, and told him that the Company was is a state of bankruptcy ?-Ilitneris answered in the negative. Mr. WATSON then proceeded to make inquiries into the particu lars of the Company's affairs, Tor the purpose. he said, of inform ing the public properly upon the subject, but this course was ob. jested to by the Lord Mayan. Thomas Halley was then examined as to the property stolen from hint. lie stated, that on. the night above.mendoned he bad lost two watch ribends. some keys, a corkscrew, and a pocket-bouk, and that a closet within the Board-roam, where thoye things were kept, bed been broken open. The fire-irons had also been stolen. (A laugh.) The p6cket-book, he believed, lie had gut upon the credit of the Company. ' Mr. WATSON—Are you a Director?—Witness stated that he was neither a Director nor a shareholder ; neither Iliad lie received scrip, nor was he a partner. (A Laugh.) Sir. hawrisvow desired the witness no: to answer any illegal question. The Loan MAYOR said the question,' that had been asked by Mr. Watson were calculated to enable a better judgment to be (mined upon the merits of the case; the public had been so despicably gulled by companies, that it became necessary to be par icular in ingairing Into the merits of a case of this kind. Mr. Host.Ta—Oh, my Lord, this is a very Innocent company. ' (A laugh.) Mr. Warsow—Aye, if they prove that their tea, however small the quantity they may have, is genuine. (Laughter.) Mrs. Duck. house keeper in the concern, deposed, that on the Friday evening the three defendants, all oewhom she had known, trent to No. 3.), Crntebedfriays, the messenger was not at home at the time, and she did not know that Alr.:lllinrwarth,who was con. stonily in the habit of calling, had been removed from the manage. ment. The gentlemen went up stairs, anti having borrowed a corkscrew from her, opened some bottles of ale, and enjoyed them refer' ; the messenger had taken the key of the board-room closet with him, or she would have given it to Alr. Illingsworth, who was in the habit of using it. Shortly afterwards a smith entered, and said he had been dewed to s call and break open a lock, and she told Sir. Illingsworth, who ordered him up . stairs; a lady moon afterwards made her appearance, and kept witness in talk below stairs until all the party, except Mr. Illingsworth, went out ; she saw nobody take any thing from the premises, nor did she see any thing remarkable until next morning, when she found the closet broken open. This was the case for the prosecution. At this moment an officer entered the Justice-room, bearing two placards, which he said bad attracted great crowds in the Street : one of the placards was headed—" Stop Thief !—Chairmen, Peter Moore. E.q. M.P.”—Thls exhibition etched roars Of laughter. The Lord Jlayor ordered that every thing of the kind should be :wired by the officers. Alt. `Versos:, for the defendant, said that it would be ridicu les* to suppose for a moment that a charge of felony hail been sus tained by the evidence, although his Learned Friend, who consi dered himself the greatest lawyer in the kingdom, thought it was nothing less than a substantial case, and persisted, notwithstanding the Lord Mayor's refusal, to grant a warrant against the accused. His clients were partners in. the United Kingdom Tea Agency Company, which was in existence, It WAS well for the public, no more than four or five months. The fact was it had been deter. fluted that 11000 shares should be subscribed, and there were tow now no more than 7350 actually on hand. (Laughter.) Mr. ll lingeworth finding that the transaction was a mete humbug-- The LonD Maron—Recollect that he was one of the originators. (A laugh.) VT. laug h.) said he had been led into the ()minces by his brother-in-law. 3lr. Iluttevant. Finding that the eyes of the public were beginning to open, he went to the Directors, told them the thin g was bad, and advised them to divide the money - they still had. Ti.., Min to sent in nus reeignation, a COROe to which he would have no oection if they had contented to ryhia deposits, but they refu sed. Indeed ell the property of the Conipapy tunotinted to no more than thirty or forty pounds. Sir. Hutchinson also held shares, and Mr. Gindon. who wu traveller to the Company, co-operated with Mr. Iftingsworth. Mr. Gordon had induced several persons in the country to take shares upon his faith, and was neturally anxious to show them that he would do all in his power to get for them the remains of their pro perty, almost the whole of which had gone to the Directors, and the Gentlemen' learned in the law. (A laugh.) Here the Counsel and Solicitor declared they had not received a farthing. Mr. WATSON was very sorry;for it. He continued—Mr, filings worth, finding there was no inclination to return the deposits upon the part of the Directors, one of whom used to receive four guineas for every day's attendance at the Board, went and got possession of the book and cash, and other things, which he believed to be long to the Company, in order to render the public all the service lie could. It was the only wish of the defendants that the public should be disabused. The Company was, they declared, In a state of insolvency, and they were ready to give into the hands of the Lord Mayor, as the property of the shareholders, all they bad taken away, for the purpose of protecting the public as touch as possible. Alr. Watson then read a hand-bill. offering a reward of fifty pounds for the p ros e cution to conviction of the defendant", for what was called a robbery ; and also a letter front 51r. Norcot, threatening, if the books, kc. that had been stolen were not re. turned, a placard to that effect should be forthwith published. The LORD MATOI said there was a remedy for libel else where._ _ Mr. WATSON concluded by stating that this dreadful charge of felon y had, like the bubble Company, burst. The Loan 31aYou asked whether any one of the Directors was present. No one answered. Mr. Illingswonh said he had, together with the other defend ants, who were also shareholders, seized upon the property, fur the benefit of the creditors ; for if the printer s and other bills were demanded the Company must prove insolvent. Ile bad placed the property in Rafe custody, sealed up; and if the (*.tun could have held more, he would have taken away the furniture. (A laugh.) Ile hoped that the Lord Mayor would take upon himself the disposal of the property, and set that Mr. Thompson should have his bill at once. Mr. Gordon said that he had sold 45 shares for the Company, in consequence of the representations of 3I r. Butterant and Mr. Peter Moore. who was at the head of the humbug ; and he gloried in aiding in the seizure of the property. Mr. Hutchinson said he had purchased five shares, and was Anxious to get back his money. ,lr. LANGSLOW persevered in declaring that a cue of felony had been made out. The Softener for the Company maid, that every person who held scrip and was Oissatiatied with it should have *2O shillings in the pound for it on Alunday. The LORD MAYOR raid, that as for the charge of felony, the animus flu awii was not at all perceptible in the conduct of the de. fondant,. Ile was, however, decidedly of opinion, that the trans action was exceedingly irregular and lawless. and, to a certain ex. tent, disgraceful ; and he hoped he should never again hear crutch , a thing in the City of London. It would have •been much better if the defendant,' had put up with the loss they had sustained, than disgraced themselves by the course they laud pursued. The charge or felony was dismissed, and it was arranged that Mr. Buttevant should have the money which he claims as his own, and that Mr. Thompson should have his hilt returned to him forthwith, or full video for it. MARYLEBONE. T)IE METROPOLITAN ALDERNEY DAIRY COMPANY.- 011 ll'ednelsy evening, soon after six o'clock, some gentleineu entered Milt office in a very hurried and agitated manner, and re quested an inimediate interview with Aft. ..Griffith, the resident Alagistrate; the consequence of that intertiew was, that an officer of the establishment. named Hooker, accompanied one eel the genueuaan. Mr. Alexander Goldstniii, to the Aletropolitun Alder. ney Dairy establishment in the Edgewate-road, where Mr. Thomas Parker, the manager of the society, .to his evklent sur prise, was given into the officer's custody upin a charte of ein benletnent, and at seven o'clock attended before Mr. Griffith. The office being thronged with above INlperstms, farmers. milk men, and others, who appeared much interested in the proceed ings, Sir John Peering, flan. the bank's, who is a Director of this Company, and 51r. Alexander Goldunid, were in attendance with some gentlemen, said to be of the profession of the law. Mi. Goldsmid., addressing himself to Mr. Griffith, said the Company above named was first inetituteil In January 1925, and Mr. Parker assvoted msnager by the Dire...unit:it a salary of :WO!: Ira-annum. payable weekly, but having been found incompetent. he was, by a vote of the Commiure of Direetore 4 diachurgral t rind ' open this living commutiiinte4 to him, he wart stir with riN. of the Company's money ; and some of their hooks, sod deposited the money at his own hankers. and for this act of felony the present proceeding had been instituted. Upon this charge an immensity of comeermtion arose. anti the matter, by consent of all parties, was ordered to stand over until one o'clock yesterday, when Mr. Parker, lICCOMpIHAIEd by Mr. Broderick and Mr. %Vella, c'aute into the office, aad took their seat on the bench. ,Mr.Ualdsmitl. and several other of the Direc tors of the Company were alto present, Mr. James Florence, their Secretary. appearing for them. Some conversation arose, Mr. GRIFFITH suggesting that the matter sae titter for d irrivate inquiry than public investigation, in which opinion Mr. Broderick joined, and recommended its skip. for. : but it WS% declined by the Directors of the Company, Mr. Florence being directed to proceed with the criminal charge against Mr. Parker. " Stop," said Mr. BRODERICK, " before you proceed with the criminal charge. as yeu pll it, let us ACC what right you have to advance any charge at all. , Your WOlShip, it appears this is a kind of Company of gentletuilit self-appointed , who vote Chairmen and Directors, and do this t deg,.and the other thing,• and finally Mr. Parker, himself a shareholder, and consequently one of the Company, is,maile, by this Board of Directors, a Manager. and then-fore bits full powers given him to direct their affairs, and being one of themselves, having an equal interest, it was a strange thing that they should come here to complain against him, having to legal right so to do." Mr. (Awry' . it said he only regarded the KW in obe way, namely, roaster and servant. It was sworn he was their servant ; anditlitt only regular way would be. to proceed with the evidence upon which the charge rested, and then put in the defence after. Mr. lloonyit act: said that would he the regular course but he only wanted to know what rigbt this Company had to proceed at all. Mr. GRlrrirti said he knew nothing about any Company ; he only regarded the case as a charge by a master aguimt s servant. Mr. 13 ROOF RI cit said he wished only to proceed regularly • but he made the remarks, perceiving train the splendidly houn d books before him, that this Conwegy called itself " The Aletropolitan Alderny Dairy Compsno 40 had Sir John Perring tor its Chair. man and s o me body t .;Directors : and as he believed this Company was am chartered by Art at Parliament, he wanted to know what line of proczedit.g could be taken under its MISC. ;kr. Florence said the Company was established by a deed of settlement. Al r. tinrrrlTU observed it would be a point for after.conslder. talon bow and what this Company was ; but he certainly would not deviate front the usual course, and would hear the evidence first. The deposition given on Thursday evening by Mr, Christopher Kemp, resident is John-etreet, Edgware-road, a clerk to the Com. pany, was then rms.% Ile deposed that Ur. Parker was in the Company's employ as Manager, to which situation he was elected by the vote of the Directors. The witness believes he was voted out of that office by the Committee of Directors the tame Com mittee that voted him in. The Wi&flea% is sure he was put nut by a majority, which could either replace or discharge any servant of the Company. Soon after obtaining notice of his discharge, Mr. Parker came to the witness's room, and took from a drawer, to which they both had access, having keys, the sum of 69/. saying he wanted money for change. The vntness afterwards understood that. Mr. Parker had placed that sum to his own account at a banker's, certainly not at the Company's bankers. Mr. Parker also took the ledger and other books; but. upon being applied to by witness he promised to give up any or either of the books he required, and did so. to prevent odes tructing the business. It gas contended during the long desultory conversation on Thursday evening by Sir John Peering, that the accused had no more rii-itt to take away the books than his (Sir John's) coachman bad his coach, anti did it solely to obstruct the business of the Company. In his cross-examination by Mr. ArELLS, the witness Kemp said he only heard of the decision which put Mr. Parker out of his situatihn he believed Mr. Porker had :10(./. a-year, at least he re ceived weekly (di IZte. fat. ; bat site witness did not consider that be had drawn his entire salary. The whole of the Directors who voted for him were not prevent when he was dismissed. .The meeting ornmnenced at eight o'clock on Thureday morning. and terminated m eleven o'c)oek. Mr. Parker had upon a former oc casion been suspended; that was about seven or eight slays since ; before. that ho took cash, but afterwards the witness did it. , A man named Nicholls merely deposed to taking the money re. ceired daily to Sir John Perring's banking-house. Mr. James Florence, the Secretary to the Society, hare came for ward, and said it would be seen upon a reference to the minute hunks priduced, that several persons had formed themselves into a Committee of Directors, and tiro trustees had also been apppinted to watch over the interests and property of the subscribers to the Company, - sad Itom consulting the same minutes, it • would be proved that Mr. Parker had been appointed by certain Members of this Company, who had also been present when he was dis charged. Mr. G ittrTITU—Do you know, of your own knowledge, the fact of his own nonointirteut ? Mr. Florence—kes, I do. Mr.ISRynERICK—Then prove it regularly. Mr. Fkireinso was about reading from the minute book, but Mr. lb:noun:it objected, contending. that, as he tatne to speak of his awn knowledge. it was his duty so to do. The Magistrate said he might recite to the books to assist his memory. 31r. Florence rend an extract from she resolutions of a meet ing held arliatson's Coffee-hoot*, of the Directors of the Metro politan Alderney Dairy Coinpogg." at which it wait resolved that Mr. Thomas Parker should be appotnted Manager of the Company. At this meeting were present Si, John ?erring. Chairmsn. Alex a_nder AI. A. Ooldstnid, Henry Down, 'teptten L. Bober, F.alward Down, henry Perry, Edward Brookes, Robert hone, John Miller, and 4.•'1% Goodenough, Ewe. The same resolution . contained some 'general particulars, 'inclusive of Mr. Parker's report of the expenses, disbursements,-Sic. to that time incurred. Another resolution of the same. Committee *of Directors ordered Mr. Poker a. salary of three hundred pounds per annum, beside a house, fur his services, and directed that he should enter into sureties to the amount a two thousand pounds for his'faithful service. and as a security for the monies he was likely •to hold Whinging to the Company, a•resolution of a Suh-f'ormoittee. chow) from the general one, showed that the orders of it hied been complied with. Mr: Florence having gone through the several mi nutes of the Committee. said they clearly established the fact.of his being only a servant of the Company, over whom the Committee had a perfect control, and-- . . . . . Here My. Ilitontnicx interrupted him, observing, he had no right to make any remarks : he was simply a witness. Mr. Florence-1 have a right to explain the nature of the Com pany's standing,jwithalr.Parker in order to establish the case against him. Bitonr R /Cl—i deny you . have any suck right; you must only give evidence, and not, remark or make a speech upon it. 'Daps° are two assumptions without your reach at present. You are simply sworn to give evidence. 111 r. etrrien said the witness might give a history of the pro ceeding, hut it wee unnecessary. Mr. if lorenee.—.l certainly will reply to the speech of Mr. aro dcrick Igoe the evidence. Mr. DRODEILICK—No , you must 110 t. without call moment, and I dour intend to do so, as your case will be demolished without their aid. _ _ Mr. Florence then passed over the proceedings of the Committee until Wednesday last, *hen he read the resolution, ordering the dismissal of .Ir. Parker, but desiring hint (Mr. F.), as Secretary, to communicate that resolution to Mr. Parker, in order to recom mend him to resign.. as they did not wish to proceed to the harsh Alternative of discharging him. Mr. Florence said he did accord. ingly communicate to Mr. Parker this resolution, but he declined giving any answer, and the Committee afterwards passed the reso lution.

Mr. Dnontnick--They have proved his appointment, but I deny they had any legal right to dismiss him. .Ir. GRIFTIT it said it just turned out as he expected. I took the case as it ought to have been taken, 1 conceive—only consider ing it one between master and servant ; but three relative distine have not been made out in such a way that I could proceed le ally. - Mr. Florence contended that his having entered into security as a servant was sufficient to establish the ease, and his having taken away the money was quite sufficient to establish a felony. Air. 11ao1►ttarc>;—Not at all. Mr. Parker is no servant, nor WWI he ever Ole of this Company's. Mr. Cretwrint observed w Mr. Florence, that taking•the case in his own way, there was no pretence for the charge, as he had as yet rot been dtbelianged. 11e. Florence—lic has nceived the money from Kemp under a false pretence. Mr. t:;itirricit—Tliat is not proved ; there is no evidence to prove a felony, and I have nothing to do with a civil injury. Alv a llaonkurga saitithe fact was. that the Directors had had a dispute amongst themselves, and one party thought proper, with. out considerirg eltenher they could du so, to discharge Mr. Parker, who tea Mehl, respuctatile matt, and not-capable of such an act. lie had been ordered by sure of the Directors to detain the money and hooks as a check upon another party, and he has the whole ' concurrence of the Board for so doing ; and if you want n remedy. you must go to the Court of Chancery, where eventually you will all be. Mr. Florence said he would follow the business up in an otlicr4ay. Mr. Icate?Eucl,....Aye, and so will Mr. Parka; is it not a cruel tiling that •reopectablenstin's character is to be se attacked. and his actions construed into evil ? Mr. Parker and the Direatora stand pledged for the debt of the Company in such a way, from it not being chartered, that he, by advice of Borne of the Directors, did as any honest Ulan would do. take possession of some money to pay those claims, Ind for so doing is he to he seised and given into custody upon a charge of felony, without either reason, truth, or justice, entirely upon the mere ipse dizit of a Mr. Goldsniid, who will have to answer for this act elsewhere ? Those persona ate self-elected, self-chosen. and self-appointed, and have no legal right to discharge any body, particularly Alr. Parker, who is as mach a panne: as any one of them ; as, in fact, they were all partners. . • The parties then quitted the °Mee. THE ftRITISH PRESS.' THE ROYAL NAVY. Ymrstotut, JAN. 18.
