pleaded his certificate, and that the Plaintiff wield have proved his debt under the commission. The Paintill replied he could not, as it was not a debt till paid. Alr. Serjaant Pitt. said, the only question was, vileetlwe the ease of the Plaintiff came within the statute or 49 Geo. 111. c. 121, see. 8. It pro vided t h at where any person was surety for, or liable to the debt of • bankrup►, at the time of the commission inured, and before the final dividend, he might come in moil prove his debt, and receive r share or that d•viJrnd. The f.►cts of the case set forth in the rrc,►rd were precisely within the words or the statute. The Plaintiff was surety fur the U. reorient at the time of the commission► issued, and paid the debt in respect of the suretyship. It was n►ot necessary that it should be an existing debt at the ti►ae of the commission issued. /le might have claimed before the final dividend. The CHICT Justice—" The rent was not due at the time of the commission ; it is therefore ne cessary for you to prove that rent not due is a debt. The worths of the statute are, surety fur or liable to a debt due by the bankrupt'." Mr. S.rjeant PELL—IIe epprehendeil the words of the Act steered clear of that difficulty, and ►hat i t was, not necessary the debt should be an existing debt at the time of the consinisoion, hot th•►t the word " surety," should be taken ii► its ordinary signification. The Cater Justice observed it had been de cided that surety for ais annuity due after the cou►- mis•ion was not within the 49th Geo. 111. Mr. Serjesnt VAUGHAN said, it appeared from the words of the stature, diet in order to enable the toirety to come in aid prove his d. ht, there must be a debt due to him by the batil.ropt at the time of the bankruptcy, and that it was to such only the et applied. Mr. Serjeant Per L replied, that the words of the Art were " surety for or liable to." According to the construction of hi• Learned Friend, these words signified tl.e same thistg ; hut he did not see why, in a remerliil Act, two words ',lonia be wed when our was sof eieut. Hr conceived that " surer) for" would extend to debts exi.tinz a d to those arising hereafter, will that therefore the d. flatterer wise mato tainahle. A , it was n case of some novelty sod un portalice, pet halal the Court would see the pro.. piety of considering it more at Is i•nre. The CoVILT intinr.►ted, that though they had no doubt un the subject, they would suspend the de livery of judgment fur a day or two. POLICE. ROBBERY BY A SITEEP. 11.

How long has the estate been in dispute?—Abont fuer years; the dispute is very sear concluded, 1 believe. Do you MOM by that that the comings' have concluded their argument ' and that it waits for the court'. judgment? —The ma," has directed a commission to issue for senior net the lands, and it bee been suspended in conseqnence of a comananieation with the parties, for the Met 12 inuelbs Have you ever Immo a cause, after having been filially heard is the Court „wf Chancery, set dawn fur judgment, and the court sot give its judgment oa the day appointed ? —Very frequently. Is it usual fur a rinse to be set dime for judgment on a particular day, sod the court to give judgment on that day ?—There are more frequent disappointments there than in any of the other courts. When a mope is set down for junkmen', is there a fee paid of ten shillings upon that attendance to the solicitor of each party?—Always. My lord Erskine's order !—Yes; and thirteen and four pence when the judgment is given.

What is the amount of the revenue of t►e school from those lauds, and other tosecea, at the present time!—They arise from the Daireuhans rectory mud great tithes; from a farm at Chigwell in Eater, and frogs three little fields, shunt five scree, near Brentwood. Who is the farm let to!—Tar a Mr. Neville Brown and other,.

Id. and which I believe bad never been raked. Tie tenant then applied to me, offering me a 4,0001. lose fur a toady-one years lease; and I considering that mode of leasing an sitjust stibnite. Lion of the revenues of the charity, refused it, except as sink. lug the estimated value upon a fair mutual rent, and upon the opinion of a surreyeir, the farm was let at 31541. a year, and without any fiat. It was let to one individual at line, but since that he has become a bankrupt. It is let now to o►hers ; but the whole rcuts amount to the sum I have stated. Upon what terms ?—The lease being voidable by the bankruptcy, it was offered to the eurportation to take it again, or it would be sold by audios. The corporation eon sidireiug it would be iujuriess that this lease should be put up to auction, agreed to surrender to them, sod let it out again at the same amount to different tenants ; two are te nants at will, sod one upon a kase of sever years, and one swim a lease for elevate.

Are 'Mere no other esoulapneni• v—Nuur whatever. 11 bat is the chap. by "surth:—Ahout 1151. per annum ; 1 have paid nearly 5001. myself towards building a chapel house. Quite unconnected with the school ?—No, it is not the master of the school to obliged to do duty is the chapel ou Wednesday and Friday, in the week. Is there any provision made is the endowment fur the die. position of this revenue!—Yes, the statutes give the reve nue of the school exclusively to the wester. Do tots recollect the words under which it so Rive it ?—I think the concluding clause of the statute is to this effect ; the master, performing she doilies with which be is charged, shall be entitled to the rents and profits, sad so forth, of the estates. Does it charge him with say particular disloorsenteuts ? It does, with Ave annuities to live alins.prople, mud to the repairs of the school, the misooldsonse and tire alms houses; and also, out of his income, to the support of soy saber that may be employed. To whose use is the school appointed?—Fur the instruc tion of boys. Generally !—Yes ; and to no other purpose. Are any particular boys specified ?—Buys from eight to eighteen, who can read and write in a written sad printed kind. Are they to belong to a particular district l—duy parishes within three unites of the school-house. What is the population of that district of three miles roved ?—The population of Brentwood is 1,400. Idu not know the population of the adjoining places. Is the population 6,000, do you think, wit►in the circuits /reale:of three miles 1-1 should thick there may be about 6,600. Are you aware of any other endowed whoal within that district ?—Nune whatever. Are the poor in the district without sufficient mesas of educating their childreu?-1 do not know that they are. They have the power, and mussy avail themselves of it, of sending their children to school, and none have ever been refused. How is the money bestowed in salaries?—The bead as. lutist has 1501. • year from me, the second 50 priors., the third 301.; the master was compelled to give 50s. a year to each of five alms-people; but when the rests of the school became increased by the abandonment of the finer, the mas ter agreed, with the other nienthers of the eorporatioe, to make up the allowance to the alms-people ten pounds apiece, which amounts to fifty pentads (she schoolmaster mid the two guardians are a corporation of themselves); 1 con sider the average repairs as an outgoing from the master, on Ilse six lions s and school-boon., to amount to shoal 401.1 year, thesupply of books sod stationery to about 301. firing and lights to about 101. and the rates and taxes to shoat 401. There is also another deduction which 1 mast add, of 118/. a year, which has been paid to the widow of a late tweeter, under the following cireanistaaces, which 1 shall beg ewes to explain. 1 mentioned 16.4 the content of SIM hid beets Ise memorial ; and, upon a late Masser (Mr. Maypowder) wish. ing to renew the lease of the Dagenham tithes, hr proposed to the corporation to give their assent to it, when it was un derstood be was to receive 6,0001. The largeness of the sum, and the school-master having thee much neglected his duty, called the atteution of the patron sod guardiasts to the validity of that act; and they determined in law to resist it. For a considerable time attempts were made to oppose the master's claim to such right; but from opinioss of counsel, as it appeared very doubtful whether such refusal coed be supported in law, at last the patron and guardians were recummeaded to com promise the question, as they would possibly have failed is it eutirely, and jto allow the master to take a smell fine (as he was in great dishes% at the time), end to have the residue of the value sank is 'an anneal rent. Before this look place the master died, and this arrangement having been is some measure promised to the family, it was recommend ed that the small fine should be sunk in an annuity, during the new lease ; and a. the master could not be compelled to pay it, the patrols and Rowdies% made themselves personally respouible fur the 'mount ; 111114.1 the masters snare have paid the sum, amounting to 1181. a year, considernig it as act of justice to make such allowance fur their increased income. lo perfoiming the duties of the school, the Committee is to understand you as employing a master, coder the name of an assistant!—Thee •asters. A bead owner. tinder the same of an assistant, an saber, and ouch r master ?—Yea. You ■re yourself the bead muter, strictly speaking I am. You perform no part of the duty of the school ?-5.10 far as this, I do not regularly attend every school hour, to teach the children wholly myself, but there is scarcely a day in which 1 ■:o not present in the school, superintending and directing it, and I have a daily report made to me in writ• ing, of the attendance of the boys; they are presented to me on those occasions for admissions, and opportunity is 'ben offered me to inquire into the manner in which the school is attended by the under master ; and whenever the bead assistant, whom I consider my mute immediate representa tive, cannot from illness or otherwise attend, 1 always take the duty myself, and bare done so for a week or a fortnight together. Previous to your incumbency, hi what state wu the school ?—I really forget the time before Mr. Western's mss. tership. When 14 r. Maypowder was preseuted to the school, under strung recommendatioos of character, as he tonfinal himself entirely to instruction iii 'reponse learning, and apparently checked very much tbeatiendauce of the children, the school fell very muck iuto disrepute, and at last there wets uo scholars at all. lu what year was that?-1 cannot say exactly; 1 think about from 1796 to 1900 ; the patron and gnardiaas frequently remonstrated with him upun big conduct, and at last the patron paid an usher out of his own pocket, to Rive some eacouragesneut to the school, as Nlr. Slaypowder's pies of nonattendance, was from ill health, and as it was suppthied he could not live lung, the patron supplied an usher in Mr. Idaypuwder's place, w►ich expense was under takes by the patron, th 4 the duties might is mime measure be fellilled. How was it in Mr. iVestera's time!—At the period of Mr. Western's firm coming to the school, there had been scarcely say attmedaace of scholars, and the childreu of the seigli bourhood lassiny hers so completely drawn sway from it, it was with difficulty any schulArs could be collected, during his mastership ; Mr. Western did the beat in his power to re-establish the school. How unsay scholars were three?-1 shonlJ suppose the mambas never exceeded tvreuty hum but I capitol speak ac curately to that. LW he teach the buys bireselfl—He superintended the school. Huy assay bays are there sow have 79 boys now. How lost have there brea 711 buys ?—Tbey have been in creasing since the time I first went to the schuul, when Ilwre were twelve, and their number is uuw seventy-two I —there have been (nor or five less in some quarters than in others Huir many were there three years ago ?—1 should think, fifty or sixty. How many four years ago ?—I should suppsie there were a few less, bat generally sec great difference, in that respect. Are all Testified boys ter:rived f—By the statutes, • becy must read and write, and he eight )ears of age; and if he lives within three miles, be is admissible, and no boy is ever refined. Is any attention paid to the ,eli(iuus belief of that tiny, is his admission?—Nurse whatever; I never ask any imeh questions; whenever • boy CAD make a mark in time arm- Waukee of writing, and can read at all, he is admitted ; and I have educated children myself, at other places, to lit them fur admisaius io this school. Do the statutes give any power to the martyr to appoint under masters:—They give the power to apputut au uutkr master. Du yus sot apprehend that the plain intent and meaning of the statutes were, that the person receiving the revenues should actually be the edicient master of the school, anal only have 'member under him ?—lt certainly apprises au by time letter of the statutes ; but more as.istauce at the mallet's extreme, natal he in t he spirit of them. Is any visitor •ppuinted by the stelutes?--The patron bus always acted as visitor ; his name is nut mentioned as such in the endue meat. %%bat is the foundation fur the statement that has been in circulatiun,rear ciiu•• carpenter la in• appuinted to teach —lt has bens spited to sue 4.f the masters, who a 4 • sti.tiug master.

Is there any appeal from this fine—None, iVas Mr. Maypowder at all connected with the family of the patron ?—No; the reason of his being appointed was from this circumstance ; a vacancy having happened in the _ the• mastership, an advertisement was seen is _ newspaper, stating, that • clergyman with a large family, very much wished fur some employment in a school, referring to Mr. Bray, my father's solicitor, in Great Reesell•street. My father inquired into the recommendation, and being assured that the person was a nsa• who would do credit to the ap pointment, gave it him.

Have not the Farishaw/ family had immemorially the lease of these tithes?—They had held them for upwards of two hundred yeses on line, when they threatened, in con nexion with the schoolmaster, to compel the patron and guardians to renew -the custom. Do you believe that the rent of 1,115/. • year is an ade quate rent for those titles ?-1 believe it is more rent than could at prevent be obtained, because there was a competi tion at the time between the lessee and the farmers, and a very great rent was given by the Fausbawe family to retain the lease In their possession. Do you know the extent of the parish as to acres?-1 do not. Captain Charles Combes called in, and eroatlied Do you claim to be patron of the school of Brentwood ? Yes I do.
