COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL.-WYTHES V. LABOUCHERE. Mr. Itolt, Q.C., resumed his argument for the appellant, in reply this morning, in this important part-heard appeal cause, which has been already reported. It will be remembered that this is an appeal from a de cision of Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood, and the contention is whether a bond granted to the Bank in secu rity for advances to be made to the late Mr. J. MacGregor, M.P., for £30,000, is void, from want of valuable considera tion. is expected the aguments will be concluded on Monday. ROLLS COURT. :Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.) JUDGMENTS. -..MATTHEWS V. JOULE. -MATTHEWS V. WYNNE.-IN RE TRAFFORD'S TRUSTS. His Honour the Master.of the Rolls, in delivering judg ment, said--. This is'a question on the construction of the will of the late Edward Trafford, and the question is, whether the shares bequeathed to the children of Sarah Jones, his daughter, vested or were not vested on their births, or were or were not vested on their attaining the age of twenty-one, or on their marriage. The testator gave £l5O to his wife, and directed his trustees to assign a divi dend of one-fourth share to his daughter, Sarah Jones, of his separate estate without anticipation. And then he directed that one-fourth part or share of the trust funds, or dividends arising therefrom, should be given to either one or more of the children of the said Sarah Jones, or their children, 'on attaining twenty-one years of age, with power of, appointment in the mother in favour of her chil dren before attaining the age of 21, and for educational purposes. He considered, as the testator himself had used the term " vested " in the ordinary and legal acceptation in the bequests to his wife and daughter, that he had also used it in the same manner in his bequests to the children of his daughter. He made a declaration to the effect that the shares of the daughter and her children vested on their attaining the age of 21. He considered that this was a proper suit to be brought into court, and that the costs of all parties skould be paid out of the trust funds. Counsel in the cause—Mr. R. Palmer, Q.C., Mr. Greene, Q.C., and Mr. Selwyn, Q.C. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. (Before Mr. Justice Byles and a Common Jury.) TUCKER V. MAXWELL. This was an action in which a question of some import ance to advertisers arose. Mr. Huddleston, with Mr. Joyce, appeared for the plain tiff; and Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. T. Atkinson ap peared for the defendant. Mr Huddleston, in opening the case, said the plaintiff carried on business in John-street, Bedford-row, in con nection with the Metropolitan Advertising Company, and was in the habit of purchasing the right of exhibiting large boards in advantageous situations, which he let out to per sons anxious to advertise their commodities and goods for sale. Mr. Tucker expended as much as £2,000 or £3,000 a-year in such a manner. The defendant, Maxwell, was the proprietor and publisher of a work called " Town Talk," and, being anxious to avail himself of the facilities offered by Mr. Tucker, wrote to him to ascertain the terms for exhibiting placards announcing his publication. In the month of May Maxwell made this application, and in a short time after wards an arrangement was entered into to exhibit the " Town Talk" bills at all the stations. Shortly afterwards a large quantity of immense show-boards, 7 feet 6 inches in length and 3 feet 6 inches in breadth, were posted in a great many positions in the metropolis. The contract was duly performed by Mr. Tucker, and the present action was brouglit to recover the amount due for three montlt exhibition of placards. The placards were exhibited from the 10th of July to the 10th of Oct. The terms agreed upon were £35 per month for three months, which would amount to £lO5. According to the custom of the trade 10 per cent/ was allowed, making the amount £94 10s. A sum of £2O on account had been paid by Mr. Max well, and it was for the remaining amount the present action was brought. _ _ . Mr. George Tucker, the plaintiff, and his son, were examined, and stated the exact nature of the contract entered into with the defendant. By that agreement they were to expose the large boards on all their stations, which had duly been performed, and the defendant ha been driven round the advertising district of the plaintiff in one of his carts. The advertising circle extended from Bow to Fulham and from Hampstead to Clapham Common. Mr. Maxwell saw the boards were properly posted. One hundred and twenty-eight stations were v isited, and everything appeared to be satisfactory. In cross-examination Mr. Tucker, jun., said the Metropolitan Permanent Advertising Company was established in 1851. _ _ _ Mr. Justice Byles—Then it is not limited. (Laughter.) Mr. Hawkins—Your father and yourself then comprised the company ? WitnCssLYes. (Laughter.) Mr. Hawkins—Your father and you were the permanent unlimited company ? Witness—Yes. (Laughter.) Mr. Hawkins—No one else was in it ? Witness—No. (Laughter.) We traded under the name of the Metropolitan Permanent Advertising Company. In June the largest number of available stations was 140. Mr. Hawkins—Were all these stations available ? Witness—No ; we could not say they were all available, because some of them were under the arches of the South- Western Railway. (Laughter.) Mr Hawkins—Where the bills cannot be seen ? (Laughter.) Witness—There was no great traffic. (Laughter.) We were obliged to put them down as available to prevent bill stickers from encroaching. (Laughter.) Mr. Hawkins—That board (pointing to a large poster in a frame) was made to put up at one of the steam-boat piers ? Witness—Yes. Mr. Hawkins—Did you ever put it up ? Witness—No. Mr. Hawkins—Did you have stations at all the other bridges ? Witness—No ; only at Hungerford and Battersea bridges• I never told Mr. Maxwell wo had stations at all the other piers. The agreement entered into with Mr. Maxwell was £35 a month, but if it was continued over six months it was to be £32. Mr. Maxwell never said he should consider himself to be at liberty to terminate our agreement at any time on giving a month's notice. Mr. Huddleston—You pay large sums for particular statiens Witness—Yes; for the outside of one particular house we pay £65 per annum. (Laughter.) Mr. Justice Byles—That's rent enough, I should think, for the inside as well. (Laughter.) The four men employed by the plaintiff to fix the defen dant's boards gave evidence accordingly. A document sent to the plaintiff by the defendant, offer ing to settle the action for £4O, having been put in, the case for the plaintiff closed. Mr. Hawkins addressed the jury for the defendant, and contended that ,the plaintiff had failed to perform his part of the contract, as he had not exhibited the bills at all his stations, and the offer of £4O to stay proceedings was made merely to obviate the loss of time consequent upon the trial of tho cause before a jury. IThe jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for £74 10s. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) SINGULAR AND IMPORTANT CASE.-PEARCE AND ANOTHER V. PIPER. This was an action to recover £5O commission for obtain ing defendant a partner with £l,OOO capital. Mr. Beard appeared for plaintiff. Mr. Sharpe was counsel for defendant. Mr. Beard stated that in the month of August last a Mr. Appleford called upon defendant (an old friend), and asked him if he (Mr. Piper) had heard of his misfortune ? Defendant replied that he had not. Mr. Appleford said, " I have been bankrupt, and am now carrying on business in the name of my brother-in-law, James Pearce, in Lom bard-street, as an accountant and agent." He then asked defendant to distribute some cards for him, and handed him some circulars. Defendant informed him that he was looking out for a partner with capital, and plaintiff obtained him one (a Mr. Dixon), and now sought to recover his commission for so doing. Plaintiff was called, and proved the above facts. He was cross-examined by Mr. Sharpe at some length, and stated that he had applied to both defendant and Mr. Dixon for his commission. The usual charges were 5 per cent. on the first £l,OOO, andi2l per cent. on each £l,OOO above He carried on the business as Pearce and Co. He was only two or three days about the business. Mr. Sharpe then contended that plaintiff should be non suited, as suing in the name of Pearce and Co., when he was de facto the plaintiff, and should sue as Appleford. _ _ _ His Honour decided that he had acted in masa. He was trading as Pearce and Co., and, by the permission and consent of his brother-in-law, under his name. He was responsible to Pearce, and could only sue in the name under which he negotiated the business. Mr. Sharpe then proceeded to show that plaintiff had no claim upon defendant, and should rather look to Mr. Dixon. Defendant was called. His evidence did not materially affect that given by the plaintiff, except that he was com municating with him as Appleford. Mr. Sharpe thenput it, whether if plaintiff had any claim, he should not have sued both partners? Mr: Beard pointed out that, by the County Court law, plaintiff was permitted to sue one partner. He contended that if ever a man was fairly entitled 'to a sum of money, that manwas the plaintiff in the present case. By plaintiff's exertions defendant had obtained a good partner, and it was absurd to ignore the fact that plaintiff carried on the business- as Pearce and Co. _ . His Honour said that in this case plaintiff had elected to sue Piper, and was allowed by the County Court law to do so. He did not see that defendant had any reason to complain. Plaintiff had evidently conducted this transaction not only most efficiently, but most rapidly. Surely defendant would not grumble because plaintiff had procured him what he wanted in three days. Every one remembered the story of the sailor who was charged a guinea by a famous London dentist for the rapid and dexterous extraction of a tooth. Jack grumbled most lustily at the exorbitant charge, and said he had, at Portsmouth, been tugged about the room for half an hour, and then was only charged one shilling. (Laughter.) Defendant was not unlike that sailor. Plain tiff had quickly earned his commission, which most cer tainly he was fairly entitled to. Verdict for the plaintiff for £5O and costs. CABBY AND THE MISTLETOE BOUGH.-BELL V. GOOTCH. Plaintiff is a cab-driver, and sought to recover 25., good and lawful money, in lieu of a counterfeit 2s. piece, alleged to have been received in change from defendant, landlady of the Bell, in the Old Bailey. Plaintiff stated that on the 27th December last he received half-a-crown from a fare, and drove up to defendant's house, in the Old, Bailey, and there changed it. He had a glass of ale, and " three ha'porth of gin." (Laughter.) He put down in payment his half-crown, and received a two shilling piece and threepence. Upon leaving defendant's house plaintiff drove to the Plough, in Smithfield His Honour—Ah ! That is a boxing-house ? Plaintiff—yes. His Honour—Yes. It is kept by C. Davis the boxer. What did you want there ? Plaintiff—well, I just dropped in and had a little chat. t was boxing-day, you know, and there I spent the 3d. His Honour—You had some more gin there I suppose. Plaintiff—Yes. I think I had another " three ha porth,' then drove to the cab-stand at Sho reditch. His Honour—That was a long way off? Plaintiff—Then I went to a coffee-shop to get change, and they told me the coin I tendered was a bad one. His Honour—What did you go to the coffee-shop for. Did you have any coffee ? Plaintiff—Oh! no, I didn't want any. His Honour—l should have imagined you did after all that gin. (Laughter.) Plaintiff—Well, I didn't have any, but drove back to defendant's house as fast as I could. When I got there I showed Mrs. Gootch what she had given me, and she denied all knowledge of the coin. I assured her that I had received the coin from her house and from her, but all I could get was, "Oh 1 we all know what sort. of men you cabbies are 1" (Laughter.) A gentleman who was present said, " Don't pay him, Mrs. Gootch; let him summon you." As she did not pay me, I adopted that gentleman's suggestion. Mrs. Gootch said—lt was impossible plaintiff could have taken the coin at her house. She was was very particular, and no one took money on that day in question but herself. She was very particular in testing every coin tendered. She tested the coins on a bender. She was quite sure the plaintiff did not receive the coin at her house. Plaintiff—You took that money off a shelf. There was a good deal of laughing. All the mistletoe was hanging up, and you were laughing with another young lady about in the bar. (Laughter.) Defendant denied that she was talking about the mis tletoe, and thought that had nothing to do with the case. Plaintiff—Well, but you know the mistletoe was up, Mrs. Gootch, and there was a good deal of chaffmg going on. Mrs. Gootch—l know you had been drinking, and I also know that I did not give you the coin you now produce. You . ought to examine your money before leaving the house. Our invariable rule is--no money exchanged after taken from the bar. His Honour—lndeed. We shall alter that rule here. Do you remember what change you gave plaintiff in ex change for his half-crown. Defendant—No, I do not. His Honour—You see he swears most positively that he received the 2s. piece from you, and you are not in a posi tion to contradict him. Although he seems to have been greatly taken by the mistletoe bough, he remembers his change, and, as he accounts for his time and actions sub sequently to leaving your house, I shall give him a verdict. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY,) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULTS AT THE HAYMARKET THEATRE.—Mr. Antonio Blacker, of 2, Upper Stamford-street, merchant, was charged with creating a disturbance at the entrance of the Haymarket Theatre, and also with assaulting George Stroud, 144 A, the constable on duty there. The constable said he was on duty at the pit entrance to the Haymarket Theatre on the previous night, when the accused created a great disturbance. He had been drinking, and he told him that he would not be allowed to go in, but notwithstanding he persisted in his attempt, and on his again telling him he could not go in he struck him. He then went to the box entrance, and he was compelled to take him into custody. The accused said he had paid to go in, having leis wife and daughter with him at the time, but they got separated from him. It all arose from the bad temper of the check taker, who would not allow him to enter the theatre. Wm. Turner, the check-taker, said the accused's wife assaulted him, being at the time in a state of great excite ment. He gave the gentleman his money back, seeing that he had had as much as was good for him. Mr. Inspector Steer said at the station the accused seemed to have been drinking. He took bail for him. The constable said he was not hurt. Mr. Bingham said there was enough to justify him in fining him the lowest fine-10s. Mr. John Rudkin, of 65, Myddelton-square, was charged with assaulting a gentleman in the boxes of the Ilayinarket Theatre. - The complainant, it appears, had dropped some silver in the boxes, and the defendant having interfered, a dispute arose, and the defendant was struck. The prosecutor not being forthcoming, the defendant was discharged. THAMES. THE LATE REVOLTING CASE OF RAPE.-Mr. H. J. Newman, the secretary of the Associate Institution for Improving and Enforcing the Laws for the Protection of Women, came before Mr. Yardley, and stated that in the early part of the week a German sailor, named Carl Butts, had been committed for trial for a criminal assault on a little girl, named Ellen Miles, eigitye;s - Of age. The magistrate then expressed an earnest hope that the society, which he (Mr. Newman) represented, would take care of the child if it came within the scope of its operations. He was directed to state that the committee of the society would, under the peculiar circumstances of the case take charge of the girl. Arrangements had been made for the admission of the girl into the Lock Hospital, Westbourne-grove, where she would re ceive proper medical advice and treatment, and be cured of the loathsome disease communicated to her by the sailor. Mr. Yardley—l am very glad to hear of this. Mr. Newman—l hope, sir, you approve of what has been done in this matter. Mr. Yardley—Approve of it ! certainly—nothing could be worse than the condition of the girl before she was brought to this court. Mr. Newman asked for an order for the girl to be de livered up to him. Mr. Yardley said the girl was under care and the control of the parochial authorities of the Stepney Union, and the matter was entirely out of his hands. Mr. Newman was then directed to apply at Liniehouse Workhouse for the girl, and left the court for that purpose DEATH THROUGH ALLEGED OMNIBUS RACING AT KENNINGTON. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Sergeant Payne, coroner for the City of London and Southwark, instituted an inquiry at Guy's Hospital, which lasted about five hours, relative to the circumstances attending the death of Mary Pratt, aged three years, the daughter of Mr. Henry Seymour Pratt, doorkeeper to the House of Commons. _ _ Mr. Pratt was represented by a solicitor Mr. Solomon attended on behalf of the driver King ; and Acting Inspector Iremonger, of the P division,. to watch the case for the police authorities. Mrs. Pratt stated that sh 6 was the wife of Mr. Henry Seymour Pratt, doorkeeper of the House of Commons, and mother of the deceased. On Tues day last, about half-past five o'clock in the evening, she was standing near to Kennington Church, holding her daughter by the left hand. Two omnibuses were then approaching from Kenning ton-gate, the first of which she hailed, and it stopped in the middle of the road. She stepped off the kerb, when she observed the other omnibus coming towards her; and as it did so the driver struck the horses with his whip, and before she could get out of the way the pole struck her on the forehead, knocking her and the deceased down. The vehicle passed over her, the horse kicking and bruising her. She was picked up by a gentleman, and did not at the time know what had become of the child. They were both taken to a surgeon's, and afterwards to the hospital. By the Coroner—Was perfectly certain that the driver of the second omnibus whipped his horses and came on at an increased pace to pass the one she had called. James Murphy, aged 11, corroborated the above evidence, adding, although cross-examined, that the driver King whipped his horses as he ap proached the lady. Mary Hiscock stated that she did not witness the accident, but took charge of the deceased after it occurred. The spot was not dark, as there were close by five gas lamps. Daniel Hayward, conductor of the omnibus hailed by Mrs. Pratt, said that both vehicles be longed to Mr. Matthew Balls, and there was, therefore, no need for racing. Mrs. Pratt came to him within half a yard, as he had the door open, but evidently, hearing the other omnibus approach, became frightened and ran under the horses' legs. The last evidence was supported by Mr. Russell, of 12, Park-terrace, Brixton, hop and seed merchant, and Mr. Wm. Carpmael, jun., of Southampton buildings, Chancery-lane. Mr. J. Rand, house surgeon, said deceased died on Thursday morning. She had a lacerated wound extending from the knee to the hip, death being caused by exhaustion consequent upon the injuries. Mrs. Pratt, on being recalled, denied running back as stated, and said that the driver, King, acknowledged at the hospital that he did whip his horses and endeavoured to pass the first omnibus. Other evidence having been adduced, the coroner summed up, and the jury retired to consider their verdict. After a lengthened conversation, upon their return into court they recorded a verdict of accidental death. THIRD EDITION NAVAL TRAINING OF WILLIAM IV- (From the United Service Gazette.) We have received letters from various corres pondents relative to the proceedings at Malta, and requesting us to draw a comparison between the training of his late Majesty King William IV when Prince William Henry, and Prince Alfred. In deference to their wishes we draw the following parallel : Prince William Henry embarked in the loyal Navy as a midshipman on the 15th June, 1 779, not having quite completed his fourteenth y, ear. The first ship in which he served was the "ince George, 98, bearing the flag of Rear-Admi -ral. the Hon. Henry Digby. The Prince's private tutor was Dr. Majendie, afterwards Bishop of . Bangor; and the late Admiral Sir Richard Keats, 1 ieutenant of the ship, one of the strictest and most , olished officers in the service, was chosen to be h is Royal Highness's professional instructor. The f 'rince George was attached to the Channel Fleet u ntil the latter end of the year, when the ship was o. "dered to form part of the fleet proceeding to the 'lief of Gibraltar, which for some time had been c! osely blockaded by the Spaniards. A Spanish G l•gun ship, captured on this occasion by the fleet, vs as re-named the Prince William, out of compli u to the youthful midshipman. After participating in this important service the Pi ince George returned to England, and remained at, ached to the Channel Fleet until the spring of 17/s'l, when she was employed at a second relief of Gibe altar, after which she proceeded to North Ameelea, as flag ship at that station. To avoid the tedium and temptation incident to a stationary ship the Prince was transferred to the Warwick, 50, commanded by Captain the Hon. G. K. Elphin stone' afterwards Lord Keith, under whose com mand he served until the 3d Nov., 1782, at which latter period he joined the Barfleur, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Lord Hood. While in the Barfleur the Prince first met Nelson, and the ac quaintance then commenced was closely maintained until the hero's death. His Royal Highness had been three years and a half at sea before we meet with any particular mark of attention paid to his exalted rank, as the son of George 111. He appears to have been rigidly kept to his duty as a subordinate naval officer. During the time he served in the Barfleur he strictly performed very much the same routine of boat service and watch keeping as any other mid shipman, a portion of each day only being allotted by the particular orders of Lord Hood, to the ac quisition of theoretical knowledge and the general improvement of his education. This task was su perintended by Captain Knight, who was Lord Hood's flag captain. On the arrival of the Barfleur at Port Royal, in Feb., 1783, the Prince being then in his eighteenth year, the first recorded marks of public attention to the midshipman in his princely character were paid. During the stay of the Barfleur at Jamaica his Royal Highness was treated with every mark of respect and distinction by all ranks of people. The inhabitants presented a suitable address, and a ca valry corps was expressly raised under the denomi nation of " Prince William Henry's Regiment," by the merchants and planters, for the purpose of at tending him while he remained on the island. After the termination of hostilities Lord Hood permitted his Royal Highness to visit Cape Francois and the Havannah, embarking on board the Bloodhound forthat purpose. He was received at Cape Francois with the honours due to his exalted rank, and 6,000 French and Spanish t r oops lined the streets on his way to the governor's house. He was made the happy instrument of releasing from death several British subjects and other persons who had been concerned in a revolt at Natchez, the prisoners having been released in honour of his royal high ness's visit. The Barfleur returned to England in June, 1783, the Prince having been upwards of two years .out of England. The subsequent career of our late beloved Sailor King is foreign to our present object, which is to show that for the first four or five years of his professional life he was under the restraints of the service, and employed during that time under the strictest and best officers who ever hoisted flag or pendant. Until he had attained a state of manhood, he was subject to the same coer cion as other well-bred young officers, and he is said to have entered heart and soul into the performance of his professional duties. The contrast between the training of the royal midshipman in 1779-84 and 1858-59 is very great. At the outset Prince Alfred was carefully and ably instructed. He passed his preliminary examination well, evincing on the occasion much natural ability, highly cultivated. He embarked on board a fine frigate, under one of the steadiest and best officers in the service ; but, instead of going abroad, out of the way of foreign courts, he was sent first to Co runna, where he was feted andescorted by generals and courtiers ; from thence to Lisbon, where royal courtesies awaited him; thence to Gibraltar,Tangiers, and Malta. Wherever else the Euryalus may anchor similar displays await upon a lad, who will not complete his 15th year until next August. Is it at all probable that such feasting and gay goings-on will assist the acquisition of nautical knowledge, or strengthen the authority of those who sire account able to her Majesty for the .professiov 11 education and discipline of the royal cadet ? We presumed, in November last, to suggest that the Euryalus should be despatched to the other hemisphere, where dinners, balls, and routs would be out of the question. We repeat that advice, and trust that, ere it is too late, some such plan will be acted upon. We look upon the young Prince as " the Hope of the Navy." To the prestige which he, if well indoctrinated, will establish we rely for the restoration of that glorious branch of the service—the navy—to its once proud position ; and we, consequently, watch his steps with a de gree of painful anxiety which may prompt our venturing on tender ground. The training of Prince William Henry was the admiration of all nations. The Admiral Don Juan de Langara, who commanded the Spanish squadron dispersed and captured by the fleet under Rodney, in which his Royal Highness was serving, is re ported to have said—" Well does Great Britain merit the empire of the seas, when the humblest stations in the navy are supported by princes of the blood Royal !" The observation, it is well known, has been cherished as one of the most elegant tri butes ever paid to British Royalty. Let us hope to find some such pleasing compliment elicited by the Royal cadet who now graces the British navy. SUN OFFICE, Six o' Clock. SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 10th have arrived. The proceedings in the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies on the preceding day were not of any political importance. The Government had sus pended the recruiting of men for the army of Cuba, but had ordered it to be continued for Porto Rico. M. Rios Rosas, ambassador at Rome, had been obliged to stop at Barcelona, from indisposi tion, on his way to Rome. This had given rise to the report that he had interrupted his journey, not from indisposition, but from the determination of the Pope to insist on the execution of the concor dat and of the convention of M. Mon, and to refuse to enter into negotiations for the modification of them. The Duchess de Moutpensier, says the Correspondancia Autografa, is in an interesting situation. MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF A BLACIC TY-ALL RAILWAY uUARD. Yesterday afternoon Mr. W. Baker, the coroner, held an inquest at the Guy Earl of Warwick Tavern, Crisp street, East India-road, Poplar, re specting the death of Thomas William Barrett, aged 51 years, a guard lately employed on the line of the Blackwall Railway, who died under the fol lowing sudden circumstances : It appeared that the deceased had been in the service of the company 17 years, and bore an excel lent character for sobriety and good conduct. The deceased had enjoyed excellent health, and on the night of Wednesday last an anniversary supper was given at the house of Messrs. Heard, the Grundy Arms Tavern, Poplar. It was about eleven o'clock when the deceased entered the house with a friend named Pearson, and hearing harmony going on in the parlour, they, by permission of the landlady, were allowed to join the company. He left about two o'clock in the morning, and expressed himself delighted with the singing, and retired. He then proceeded to his residence, at No. 12, Crisp-street, where the landlady (Mrs. James) heard a moaning noise. The wife called the latter, and she went in at the wife's request. She was rubbing his stomach and he was sensible. He spoke and said, " I am very bad." The wife was dressed and seemed alarmed. She had been up with him an hour, and he seemed in pain and was very cold. Mr. elham, the sur geon, was called, and attended, when remedies were administered, but deceased died shortly after- wards. Mr. Ambrose Nelliam, surgeon, of No. 21, Crisp street, Poplar, said that ho was called on Thursday morning, at five o'clock, and found deceased lying partially on his face and left side upon the bed. Witness spoke to him and found him sensible. He had an agonising pain between the chest and stomach. Deceased said he had been drinking strong rum without water. Deceased seemed to be suffering froth violent spasm of the chest. Anti dotes to allay the sufferings were given, but de ceased expired notwithstanling the greatest at 3n tion was paid to him. The immediate caul() of death was inflammation of the bowels. The Jury were dissatisfied with the medical tes timony, and ultimately the proceedings were adjourned for a post-mortem examination.
