The extensive and eligible estates of the late Wil liam Crowdy, Esq., the eminent solicitor of Highworth, in Wiltshire, have been for some time announced in our columns for sale by auction by Mr. George Robins, at the Goddard Arms, Swindon, on Monday, the 23d inst. The property includes the family residence at High worth, with lands and houses in all directions, which from their excellence and position, will no doubt excite much competition, especially the lands, approximating upon the Swindon station of the Great Western Railway. There are also farms at South Marston, Lechlade, and Letcombe, which offer excellent investments, and cannot fail to command the attention of capitalists. NARROW ESCAPE OF AN AGED FEMALE AND THREE CHILDREN FROM BURNING.—On Thursday fore: noon a fire broke out at No. 1, Crown-court, Great Trinity-lane, City, occupied by Mr. Thomas Lane, which was nearly attended with disastrous consequences. During the absence of the mother, three small children were left alone, in a room on the ground floor, when they commenced playing with the fire, and set the bed and furniture in flames. The discovery having been very opportunely made by some of the neighbours, the chil dren were rescued; but the flames having obtained such a strong hold, it was found necessary to send for the en gines, and the fire was soon extinguished. The smoke that was caused by the burning of the bed was so dense, and of such a suffocating nature, that an aged female at the top of the house, was prevented from descending the stairs, and she had just got to one of the upper windows, and was in the act of throwing herself out, when she was laid hold of by Morris, one of the firemen, who carried her down stairs, and thereby saved her life. Mr. Lane, unfortunately, was uninsured. FALL OF THREE HOUSES AT OLD BROMPTON, AND:LOSS OF LIFE.—On Thursday evening, between the boars of five and six o'clock, the utmost excitement was created in the neighborhood of Pelham-square, Old Brompton, in consequence of the sudden falling of three newly-erected unfinished houses, situated on the south side of a recently formed thoroughfare, known as Alfred place, Pelham-square. It appears that about a quar ter of an hour previous to the occurrence upwards of twenty men were employed on the premises, but in con sequence of the approaching darkness not permitting them to continue their work, they, with the exception of three, left the buildings. James Hashey, William Monney, and Patrick O'Sullivan were the names of the three individuals left at work. They were engaged at the top of the premises preparing some scaffolding, when they were called upon by a fellow-labourer, named Mullingford, to come down, for the house was falling. The men, however, unfortunately disre garded this warning, and merely replied that made fools of. O'S u lli van was they were not so easily then about to descend a ladder, but before he had reached the bottom the house fell in with a loud crash, immediately' followed by the fall of the ad joining house on the left side, and also the partial falling of that on the right. The workman who was descend ing the ladder was pitched heavily forward, by which he sustained numerous very serious wounds, likely to re sult fatally. His companion Monney by some means escaped almost unhurt, but Hashey was buried in the ruins, and from the nature of the fall was doubt less instantly killed, and it being quite dark by this time, the street being but indifferently lighted with gas, no efforts could be made to recover the body of the de ceased. Shortly after eleven o'clock last night several persons, fancying they heard groans proceeding from the ruins, ventured upon them, and were about to raise some of the fallen timber, when another portion of the already half-demolished house gave way, and fell with a heavy crash, and a brick falling on the head of a la bourer named Hawkins, he was knocked down and very severely wounded. The deceased Hashey, about two or three weeks since, while employed on the same works, met with an accident of such a severe nature as to confine him in St. Bartholomew's Hospital up to a day previous to his melancholy and violent death. The Property thus destroyed belonged to Mr. Holmes, an ex tensive house owner in that district.

The Lord Chancellor took lunatic petitions, cause petitions, and appeals to-day. BLARE V. LORD WALLSCOURT. This cause petition, which stood on his Lordship's paper for hearing to-day, was ordered to stand over, on the application of counsel. BRISTOW V. NEEDIIAM. This cause petition was also ordered to stand over, upon the application of Mr. Cooper. His LORDSHIP, after disposing of the unopposed lunatic petitions in his paper, proceeded with the hearing of ap peals. per annum in lieu of the tithes leviable on a cer tain parish, and by Acts of Parliament he was empowered to distrain upon the property of defaulters. The plaintiff owed 38/. 16s. 94d. in this way, which was made up of numerous small sums, each of which included a fraction. Two of these sums, the first 31. 19s. 94d., and the second 31. 19s. 10d., were incorrect, inasmuch as one was a id. too little, and one id. too much, or an overcharge of a single farthing. All the sums together, however, made up the proper amount. Nevertheless, the plaintiff refused to pay the demand, and a distress was put in for the amount. He subsequently brought an action to re cover compensation for an illegal demand and trespass, but the jury found for the defendant. A rule was after- wards obtained, calling upon the defendant to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside and a new trial bad. It appeared, however, that the plaintiff had stated in a letter to the defendant that the only differ ence between them was the amount of the income-tax on the amount levied. The case now came on for argument. Mr. Sergeant JONES and Mr. PEACOCK showed cause against the rule on the ground that the aggregate amount was correct, that the distress was properly made, and on the admission of the plaintiff with respect to the income tax. Mr. CHILTON, Q.C., and Mr. CowLING followed in support of it. They held that the distress was only levied with respect to the two sums mentioned, in which there was an overcharge, and thereforc the demand, though apparently insignificant, was an o vercharge, and, in distraining for such an amount, Mr. Thomas exceeded the powers vested in him by the Act, and that the verdict must therefore be set aside. The COURT did not think it right to disturb the deci sion of the jury, inasmuch as it appeared that the parties understood that the aggregate amount claimed was cor• rect, although there might be a fractional. mistake in some of the items. The Judges all agreed in the decision. The Court then rose. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK. Philip Adam, a private in the 77th Regiment of Foot, was charged before Mr. Seeker with stealing half of a leg of mutton from a butcher's shop in Millpond. street, Bermondsey. John Webb, foreman in the complainant's service, saw the prisoner snatch up halt a leg of mutton off the stall beard, and run off with it; witness pursued him and gave him into custody. When he was searched at the station-house his written discharge from the 77th Foot was found in his pocket, and also some money, In answer to Mr. Seeker, the prisoner said that he had been invalided home from Upper Canada; had ar rived in London on Thursday, and was about to proceed to his destination (Manchester), when the present awk ward affair happened. Mr. SEcKER—What have you to say in answer to the charge? Ycu were seen to take the meat off the board on which it was exposed for sale. Prisoner—The wit ness has sworn to it, and I suppose there is no use in my denying it. Mr. SEcit.Ea.—You are committed to gaol for one month, for having unlawful possession of the com plainant's property. BOOTH V. CRESWICK. The further arguments in this part-heard appeal from i.he decision of the Vice• Chancellor of England were re sumed, and occupied the Lord Chancellor the whole morning. The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the arguments, gave judgment, dismissing the appeal with costs. ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 13. EARL NELSON V. LORD BRIDPORT.-JUDGMENT. Lord LANGDALE, in giving judgment, said this cause came on on exceptions to the Master's report. Horatio Earl Nelson was possessed of the estates of Bronte, in the kingdom of Sicily, which had been raised into a duchy by Ferdinand, King of the Two Sicilies, and conferred upon Earl Horatio Nelson. The present defendant, Lady Bridport, claimed to be possessed of that estate under the will of her father, Earl William Nelson. The Master had reported in her favour, and the exceptions went to impugn that report. The law of Sicily was to be considered most particularly in this case. King Fer dinand gave the grant of the estate in Bronte to Earl Horatio Nelson in 1799, with the title of Duke of Bronte, that estate to descend, in conformity with the law of Sicily, the eldest male child taking precedence of the younger, and the male and his heirs of the female descendants. It was further commanded that Earl Horatio Nelson and his successors should hold the estates in fief. Earl Horatio Nelson had obtained per mission from George 111. to accept the estate in question tinder these conditions. He was then Baron of the Nile, but had been subsequently created Viscount Nel son. Earl William Nelson was the eldest brother of Earl Horatio Nelson. Mrs. Bolton, his (Earl William Nelson's) eldest sister, and the present plaintiff was her grandson. Horatio Earl Nelson left his estates to his , brother, on the condition of his carrying out certain trusts specified in the will. He was to convert, accord ing to the terms of the will, those estates into money, and purchase an estate of 1,0001. per annum for his wife, and in case of the money derived from that sal° beim -, insufficient for such purpose, the deficiency was to be made up out of his estates in Sicily. He then left the rem ainder of his property to his brother and his children. subject to an annuity of 5001. to Lady Hamilton. The will then proceeded to appoint William Lord Nelson as his successor to the Duchy of Bronte, granted by Fer dinand, under and subject to certain trusts afterwards mentioned in the will already stated ; and that the in tention of the testator with regard to that sale of the estate in Bronte should be carried out as far as possible according to the law of England, but at all events as much in conformity with it as the law of Sicily would permit ; and that in default of the issue of his brother to the estate, it was to go to Susannah Bolton and her heirs and successors, and that the remainder of his pro petty was to descend to another female relative, or Mrs. Catherine Matthew. It then desired that the money accruing from the sale of the estate in Bronte should be invested in the purchase of an estate in England, Ire land, or Wales, in that manner in which the law of Sicily pointed out. The testator then gave certain legacies, among which, and by a codicil to his will, tho aia.nuity of 5001. out of his estates in Bronte to Lady Hamilton, notwithstanding his former will. Horatio Lord Nelsen died on the 21st of October, 1825, and the CLE RKENWE L L. Henry Gray, described as a law- writer, was placed at the bar, on the charge of breaking into the house No. 25, Rawatone street, under the foliowingcircumstances:— . Mr. Thomas Glover stated that he was one of the trus tees of the late Mr. Skinner, who held the above pre mises under the Brewers' Company, and a long litigation had ensued between them and the prisoner and other members of his family. Owing to the circumstance of the house in question having been, contrary to the terms of contract, convert...d into a beer-shop, to the detriment of the adjacent property, and the result was that he (Mr. Glover) received possession under the sheriff on the 11th inst. That morning, at three o'clock, the prisoner broke open the door with a hammer, for the purpose of re-entering the premises, when he was taken into custody by a policeman. Mr. Glover now applied that the prisoner should be required to find good bail to keep the peace to all her Majesty's subjects as according to the present state of the case many other parties beside himself might be subject to his violence. Mr. CONDE acceded to the application, and the pri soner was locked up in default of bail. A coal-porter, named Henry White, was charged with stealing a quantity of leaden pipes, the property of :Ar : J. Morgan, builder, of Islington-green. He was stopped with the propeny i❑ his possession. The case was remanded to Wednesday, as the police thought they should be able to establish other charges against the prisoner. AIL COURT, Nov. 13. EXPARTE SRUTTLEWORTH. Sir JOHN BAYLEY said that in this case his Lordship had granted a writ of habeas corpus last Monday, to bring up into this Court the body of this lady from a lunatic asylum. He now applied for time to make the return, which could not be done before Monday next. Mr. PARRY, at whose instance the writ was granted, said that as the interests of his client would not suffer if the course proposed were adopted, he had therefore no objection to make to the application.—The application was granted accordingly. THE QUEEN V. CALDWELL AND ANOTHER.-TREATMENT OF PRISONERS IN THE QUEEN'S BENCH PRISON. Mr. BALLANTINE moved in this case for a writ of certiorari to bring up an indictment for assault from the Central Criminal Court into this Court. The indict ment was filed by a Mr. Herring, a prisoner in the Queen's Bench Prison, against two persons, named Caldwell and Carr, officers in the prison, for an assault committed upon him within its walls, in the execution of the rules according to the Act sth Victoria, c. 52, t. 16, by which the Secretary of State was empowered to draw up rules for the prison. He bad an affidavit which stated that a question would arise as to how far the rules were framed according to the Act, and how far the orders of the Secretary of State had been carried out. It had been sworn that questions would arise upon those points which would render it necessary to have the as sistance of Queen's counsel. Mr. Herring (who had been brought up upon a writ of habeas corpus to hear the application) asked whether he was entitled to have copies of the affidavits ? Mr. Justice PATTESON said that he was not, until they were filed, and then he would have to answer them. He could then have copies at his own expense. If the assault took place in the execution of the rules of the prison, the only question was whether the proper course would not be to remove the indictment. He could not say who were the guilty parties. Mr. Herring said he was guilty of no offence. Mr. Justice PATTESON—You do not deny that the assault took place in consequence of a breach of the rules. Mr. HERRING said that the case was one of common assault, but committed under the most aggravated cir cumstances. There was nothing which would at all render the question an abstruse point of law upon which the jury at the Central Criminal Court would be at all at a loss to arrive at a clear judgment. He con ld fee Coansel in consequence of the expense he had been put to, and his friends had been denied access to him. He had brought an action against the keeper, and that action would be most materially prejudiced by the grant ing of the present application. Mr. BALLANTINE said that the writ had been issued against the keeper six months ago, and it had not been tried yet. Mr. HERRING said that it would come on at the sittings after term. Mr. Justice PATTESON—BUt you have not declared yet, and of course your indictment will be tried first, un less some accident interfere. _ _ _ trusts of his will, as far as regarded his English property, were duly and ecrrectly executed. The only question was as regarded the estate in Sicily. if this question were to be considered according to the law of England the duty of the trustees would have been unquestionably to have effected the sale according to the law of this coun try, and to have made the specified settlements. But such were not the circumstances, and it was rendertd necessary to adopt other steps. In January, 1806, Earl William Nelson presented a memorial to the King of the Two Sicilies, in which he stated what were the intentions of the testator, and 6 xpressed a hope that his Majesty would allow those intentions to be carried into effect ; and on the 20ih of June, 1806, the King of the Two Sicilies granted the estate of Bronte to the said Lord W. Nelson, his heirs and successors, with the obligation of perpe tual trust, according to the law of Sicily. By this act of his Majesty (the King of the Two Sicilies) Earl William Nelson became entitled to the estates tit Bronte, with the limitations that were placed upon the heir to the same. He had at that time an only son, who died without issue, leaving the present defendant, his only sister. In the interim a law was made in Sicily which abolished the law preventing the alienation of an estate in that kingdom, and Lord W. Nelson then appointed Lady Bridport his heir, with all powers, by a will dated the 20th of February, 1833. It was under that testament that Lady Bridport claimed, while the claim of the present Earl Nelson was made under the terms of the will of Horatio Lord Nelson. In considering the Master's report it would be convenient for him ("Lord Langdale) to state the propositions on which the Master based that report, the grounds upon which the exceptions were taken, and the grounds upon which he (Lord Langdale) had come to a conclusion in this very difficult cause. The law of foreign countries was to be decided by a judge of this country, by facts, of which a testament was one, for it could not be supposed that a judge in one country could be so conversant with the original state and the alterations that might take place in the laws of another country as to enable him to give a correct decision upon those points that might arise in a complicated cause like the present. In the cause, then, before the Court there was conflicting evidence and, unfortunately, other difficulties that rendered coming to a satisfactory conclusion almost impos sible. Looking carefully to the testimony and the arguments, and certainly leaving nothing, however trouble:;ome, undone to come to a correct conclusion, he had. made up his mind on the matter ; but it yet re mained to give an account of all the means he had em ployed for that purpose, and upon the careful considera tion of which- his opinion had been formed. The Mas ter's conclusions were, that Earl Horatio Nelson held the estates in Bronte according to the law of the Franks, and when he appoiuted his successors that he had no further power over the land which con stituted that estate • that the trustees had not either, together or separately, any power to sell the estate, or to give to the purchaser any right or claim therein; that Wm. Lord Nelson, as sole feudal possessor, be came possessed of the estate under a feudal tenure and by subsequent changes in the law became absolute owner of the estate in fee simple. His Lordship, after recapitulating the allegations on the exceptions, pro ceeded—Lord William Nelson took an estate in trust which was ordered to be sold, and the fundamental dif ference between the parties was, whether the trust was to be executed, or could be executed. On one side it was contended that the estate was inalien able, being a novum tensility. By the Act of Ferdinand, the estate was constituted a duchy, to be held according to the law of the Franks. It was then stated to be a nobile feudum, according to the law of Sicily. It was, however, also contended that it was a feudum degenerans. The defendants contended by the tenure of the estate that it was not held in firma stricta according to the law of the Franks. This was to be determined by a reference to the terms of the grant. It did not appear, therefore, to be a con sideration whether it was a feudum degenerans, or whether the forma stricter was to be departed from. The Master had come to the conclusion that the estate was not a novum feudum. By the law of Sicily two persons could not be appointed successors. Lord Nelson might have sold the estate himself, and given the same power to his fiduciary heirs, but it could not be alleged that he authorised his fiduciary heirs to do all he might have done himself. If it had been a feudum digenerans, the witnesses who had been examined stated that plenary powers were conferred on the person to whom the estate was granted. It appeared to him that the evidence for the defendants showed that Lord W. Nelson in default of issue, became entitled to the property, which was to be considered neither as a feudum novum or feudum degeneruns, but as a feudum nobile to be held in stricta forma. Earl W. Nelson was, therefore, duly appointed successor, and therefore to claim inves titure. If the male issue of Earl W. Nelson failed, the estate should pass to the plaintiffs. The question then was, whether the estate could be sold. He did not think the trustees could sell the estate, or change the succes sion. He thought Lord William Nelson had become heir under the law of Sicily, and he could only deal with the estate according to that law. No effect could be given to the succession beyond what the law of Sicily permitted, as the testator could not subject his successors to any succession different from what was legal. He was of opinion, therefore, that the trustees could not carry out the trusts of the will, and that they had done all that was possible for them to do under the circumstances. The subsequent alterations that had taken place in the laws of Sicily could not be considered to renew the execu tor's trusts. In giving the estate to Lady Bridport, he had done nothing which he was not perfectly entitled to do, for whether Lord William Nel son, when by the power that the alteration of the law of Sicily gave him, did or did not do what was right in not executing the trusts of his brother, Horatio Lord Nelson, was not then to be consi dered. He was of opinion that the Bronte estate could not be disposed of in the way the original tes tator had done. These were the grounds of the Master's finding, and he (Lord Langdale) thought they were substantiated. He would, therefore, direct that the ex ceptions should be overruled, but that the costs should be divided by the plaintiff and defendant. Mr. HERRING then went on to complain at great length at the regular system of annoyance to which he was sub jected by the officers of the prison, who would never suffer him to see any of his friends or legal adviser„ alone; and who had followed him even into the grand jury room when he went to give his evidence, and had insisted on remaining there until they were ordered out by the grand jury. Mr. Justice PATTESON—It is not a very usual course to remove these indictments from the Central Criminal Court ; but in this case—the more I hear and the more I see—that this case should be removed. If the keeper were here, he would say that this prisoner had infringed the rules, and given him a great deal of trouble. I is clear that there is ill feeling on one side or the other. I mutt therefore grant a writ of certiorari to remove it. The defendants were then admitted to bail in an in creased amount, and the case was ordered to be entered for trial forthwith. Mr. Herring again complained of the treatment to which he was subjected, and was eventually escorted from the Court, surrounded by four or five attendants, who encircled him whilst speaking to a friend, and so went with him across Palace-yard, followed by ninny people from the body of the Court.

WILSON'S SCOTTISH ENTERTAINMENTS.—LONDON DERRY.—We had the exalted pleasure of being present at the entertainments given by Mr. Wilson, in the Cor poration Hall, on Monday and Tuesday evenings. It would be useless to indulge in commendation of a vo calist whose fame is so widely spread and firmly estab lished as that gentleman's, but we may be permitted to say, that we have seldom heard a voice so well uniting as his does the qualities of sweetness, compass, and flexibility. We do not confine our admiration of him to his physical capabilities. We have heard several, having the faculty under proper appliances, of emitting the most dulcet sounds, but, proceeding from a lifeless source, were in themselves lifeless. It is not so with Mr. Wil son. He feels heartily, and brings out the peculiar sen timent of the song with simple and natural emphasis. This was peculiarly observable in his " Flowers of the Forest." Of the music itself too much cannot be said. Never were the wailings of a nation poured out in more affecting strains. Mr. Wilson has a keen perception of the grotesque and humorous, and hence, in his comic songs, such as " Hame cam our gudeman at e'en," and " Get up and bar the door," he is eminently successful, the effect being heightened by good acting, and a patois not a little redolent of Auld Reekie. Both evenings Mr. Wilson had a large and fashionable audience, who seemed highly delighted.—Londonderry Paper. [Mr. Wilson, after a long tour in Ireland and the southern counties of Scotland, we understand, returns to to*n by the end of the month, and has announced a series of his entertain ments in the City, at Crosby Hall, commencing Dec. I.] PROJECTED RAlLWAYS.—Thursday's Gazette is of a very bulky character, in consequence of the number of advertisements contained in it relative to railways. These notices amount to nearly 70, and announce the intention of the different companies to apply next session to Parliament for Acts to authorise their various under takings, which have reference to the establishment of new lines, or alterations, extensions, &c., of existing ones, so that the Parliament is already threatened with a considerable amount of rail way business. DEATH OF A MlSER.—Thursday notice was posted at the Royal Exchange from the Court of the Arch bishop of Canterbury, that if the next of kin of Thomas Kane, late of Old Brentford, in the parish of Ealing, dead intestate, did not come forward, they would be condemned by contumacy, and administration granted to Thomas Mamie, the Treasury solicitor, on the part of her Majesty Queen Victoria. It seems that Kane, who was well known in Brentford for his penurious habits, and bore the name of miser, died some few months since possessed of considerable wealth. No will could be found, and he was not known to have a single relative, and though every endeavour has been used, no one belonging to him can be discovered. The above no tice was issued preparatory to possession being taken in behalf of the Crown. Two CROPS OF GRAPES IN ONE SEASON —Mr Mitchell, gar d ener, of Ke mp Town, Bri g hton, is now . gathering a secon d crop o f grapes this year from the same vine. The first crop was gathered in February, and the vine pruned on May-day. VICE-CHANCERY COURT , Won. 13. _ _ _ _ (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR Of ENGLAND.) His Honour took unopposed cause petitionF, short causes, and cause petitions to-day. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. WIGRAM.) EX PARTE SAMPSON IN RE BERWICK CORPORATION ACT. The petitioner in this case was a solicitor, and he prayed for the payment of costs, which had been occa sioned in attendances on and journeys to and frcm London, for the purpose of attending to the progress of an Act which was pending before Parliament. His HONOUR having heard the arguments in the case, dismissed the petition with costs. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 13. The Court took the new trial pap , >r this morning. Nothing cf public interest occurred up to the time that we went to press. CHAMBERS V. THOMAS.-IMPORTANCE OF A FARTHING. The defendant in this case agreed to receive 2,100 L COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov 13. BARRY AND ANOTHER V. NESHADI AND ANOTHER. The plaintiffs in this case were paper-makers, and the defendants were alleged to be the proprietors of the Newcastle Advertiser. The action was brought to re cover for paper supplied to the defendants. Louden, one of the defendants, had suffered judgment to go by de fault. Nesham had originally been proprietor of the paper, but had, as he alleged, sold it to other parties, suffering part of the purchase money to remain on mortgage. The plaintiffs, on the other hand, contended that he was a partner. The question entirely turned on the construction to be put on the wording of the agreement between the parties at the time Nesham ceased to be sole proprietor of the paper. The case came on for argument in demurrer. Mr. Sergeant Channel having been heard for plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Talfourd for defendant, The COURT gave judgment. The only real question they had to consider was, whether the defendants, at the time the goods were supplied, were joint partners in the newspaper in question. The settlement of this point turned entirely on the construction of the agree ment, and looking to its purpose, intention, and the object to be realised, it appeared clear to them that it was a part nership extending over a period of seven years, unless otherwise dissolved under the conditions named in the document. Any one who stipulated for a portion of the profits of a' concern must be considered liable to any loss arising from the transactions necessary, for the carry ing on of the undertaking. A contract stipulating for a portion of the profits clearly created a liability for any loss. Judgment must, therefore, be given for the plaintiffs, GIBBI v. FLIGHT AND OTHERS.-THE PARISH OF WALBROOK. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD, on behalf of the defendants in this case, was desirous of knowing whether judgment. would be given on an early day. Considering the painful position in which the parish of Walbrook was placed, he trusted as little delay as possible would take place. _ - Lord Chief Justice WlLDE—Judgment I expect wil be given in the couse of the present term. PARRAT V. BERKELEY.-THE BIRMINGHAM AND BUCKINGHAMSHIRE RAILWAY. This was an action brought by Mr. Parrett, the ad vertising agent, to recover from the Hon. F. H. Berke ley, M.P., the sum of 200 L, for advertising the prospec tus of the Birmingham and Buckinghamshire Railway, of which it was alleged defendant was a provisional director. The plaintiff, not being in a position to_prove that the prospectus in which the name of the defendant :appeared had been issued by the officers of the company, was nonsuited. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 13. (Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.) IN RE THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM EXTENSION TO LEAMINGTON RAILWAY COMPANY. In this case Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD gave his decision as to the alleged act of bankruptcy by the dis solution of the company by notice in the Gazette. The argument used by Mr. Pocock, the solicitor, to the fiat, was, that the dissolution was an act of bank ruptcy against the creditors, who could proceed against the company, although the shareholders had not de. Oared that the dissolution should be deemed an act of bankruptcy, which they were entitled to do in order to have the affairs wound up. The Learned COMMISSIONER very briefly gave his de cision, said that he had consulted with his brother Commissioners, and they agreed with him in opinion, and he had come to the decision not to adjudicate in the case. The only remedy for the creditors appears to be to appeal to the Court of Review, and to endeavour to get an order of Court. SECONDARIES' COURT, Nov. 13. (Before M r . S econ d ary J A NES.) SEWELL 0. MARTINDALE. This was an action to recover the sum of 161. on a bill of exchange. The defendant had pleaded that she did not accept, but a judge's order had been obtained, calling upon her to admit the handwriting, in order to save the expense of calling witnesses in cases where the defence was vexatious. The jury, accordingly, gave a verdict for the amount claimed. EON V. TAMER. This was an action to recover the sum of 381., the balance on an account for grocery goods sold to the de fendant. The plaintiff is a wholesale grocer in the Bo rough, and the defendant had been a grocer in the Wandsworth-road. The Learned SECONDARY held that the showing the account in the ledger to a customer, if he made no ob‘ jection at the time, was sufficient evidence Id ri e li v p ry . In this case the defendant had distinctly admitted 30/. to be due, by offering a bill for that amount. The jury gave a verdict for the amount claimed. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.

A portion of that day's supply was on sale, hence the trade was in a very inactive state, and the quotations suffered a further decline of Is. per quarter, without a clearance being effected. Fine Foreign Wheat was freely offered at the late depression, but the business passing in it was very trifling. Some sales were made in bonded Wheats for shipments to France at fair quotations.

BOROUGH HOP PIELRIEET. The quantity of Hops on offer being on the increase, the demand for all descriptions is heavy, and prices are with difficulty supported. Sussex pockets, 75s to 765; Weald of Kent ditto, 80s to 88s ; Mid and East Kent, 88s to 130 s. (From the London New Price Current of November 13.) SVIAR.—To-day the better qualities of yellow and grey West India Sugar were much sought after, and the rates offered fully equal to those previously current, but there was only a small quantity on show, whilst inferior and brown kinds met with a dull demand, although offered at a reduc. lion on last Friday's rates of 6d to Is per cwt. REFINED.—To- day there was little business transacted by the home trade in refined goods, notwithstanding brown lumps could be obtained at 62s to 63s 6d, and standard lumps at 64s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar sells much more freely and at stiffer rates, first sort bringing 32s 6d to 33s per cwt. MAtnimus.—lmporters have manifested firmness this week, and refrained from bringing any to public sale; good and fine yellow descriptions have met with attention, and the parcels sold privately were at full rates. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with at tention, and 3,094 bags at public sale were sold at 6d to is per cwt advance for white Benares, and the rise on superior grainy yellow was 6d, whilst all other kinds fully sustained the former value. FOREIGN.—AII kinds of Sugar available for home consump tion are held with firmness, none has been offered at auction this week, and the deliveries are still exceeding the arrivals. There has been little inquiry after brown Brazil, but prices remain at 40s to 445, whilst other qualities have been dis posed of to a fair extent at firm rates. COFFEE.—This afternoon there was a stronger desire ma nifested to operate in Native Ceylon, and 2,207 bags at auc tion were chiefly sold at previous rates, but not above. Srinrre.-Importers of Jamaica Rum are not inclined to submit to any reduction in the value, but all sort s have beendealt sparingly dealt in. Demerara has been spar in g l y in, but holders are unwilling to take lower rates. Leeward Island has been in excellent request, and the sup ply being small, buyers are compelled to pay stiff rates. East India is wanted, but the trade are not disposed to pay any further advance, small as the supply is. There has been less demand for Brandy this week and lower prices have been taken foi the older sorts, there being an increased quantity on offer; but young kinds are held for the former value. For British Spirits the demand is yet active. Eng. lish Corn at Ils 3d, Scotch and Irish Ils 2d to lls 3d per gallon. English Gin 17 under lOs 3d, and 22 under 9s 9d.. TEA.—There has been an increased desire manifested by the town and country trade to get supplied, and speculators are turning their attention to both black and green Tea; the tendency of prices is upwards, and there is a less quantity offering for sale. That the market should have assumed a more healthy appearance is not to be wondered at, when it is taken into consideration that all kinds are cheap, and under the cost of importation. The arrivals during the past ten months exceeded those of last year by 1,882,0001b5. SPICES —To-day black Pepper met with little attention, and the sound of 1,137 bags of Penang at public sale was taken in. Nutmegs are wanted, and 13 cases of Penang at auction sold at rather higher rates, 10 cases of Cloves fetched 2s for fine bright Penang. Ries.—No improvement has taken place in the value of Bengal, although the market has been shortly supplied, the home demand having been good, and exporters operating with more freedom. Of Java the market is yet without a supply, and it is wanted. Fnurr.—Two public sales have taken place this week, con sisting of 83 butts 93 caroteels 51 barrels Patras Currants, damaged, all sold at 53s to 565. By private contract the transactions for all descriptions continue on a large scale— Turkey Figs good and fine 56s to 85s. Valentias maintain their price 465. Denia in baskets 345. olis.—There has been less activity in the market for common Fish Oils this week, and prices have assumed a downward tendency. Southern has met with little atten tion, and notwithstanding the scanty supply all qualities are obtainable upon rather lower terms. Sperm has met with little attention, and the tendency of prices is downwards, although there is not a large stock. For Rape Seed Oil the demand has fallen off, and prices have assumed a downward tendency. For Palm the market has become quiet, holders have submitted to reduced rates. For Cocoa Nut the market has become quiet, but in the value little variation has oc curred. Olive Oil has been largely dealt in, but no further rise in prices took place. Linseed Oil is offered at further reduced rates on the spot, still the home trade have pur chased with caution, and for exportation scarcely any de mand has exited. 31. per cent. Gl. pr cent.

I 63 12 COMMISSION OF LUNACY EXTRAORDINARY DELUSIONS.-EFFECTS OF PROSPERITY. On Thursday a commission de lunatico inquirendo was opened before Mr. Commissioner Winslow and nineteen special jurors, at the Manor House, Stoke Newington, to inquire into the state of mind of Mr. Thomas Teague, aged 37, described in the commission as of Birmingham, but now an inmate of Mr. Birkctt's asylum, Nortnum berland House, Stoke Newington. The unfortunate gentleman is a wealthy tradesman at Birmingham, possessed of property to the amount of about 40,0001., having no relations who can at present be found. The commission, which was unopposed, was taken out by a friend, Mr. A. S. Stocker, of Bartholo mew-close. In supperrt of the commission, Mr. H. Weeks, of Clifford's Inn, appeared as solicitor ; and Mr. Rupert Kettle, of the Chancery bar, as counsel. From the Learned Counsel's statement, the evidence of Mr. Birkett, of Northumberland House, Henry Croft, an attendant ; Mr. A. T. Spencer, surgeon ; Mr. H. P, Bee, surgeon ; and other testimony, it appeared that Mr. Teague was a native of Wales, that he had been apprenticed to a painter and glazier, at Birmingham, where he became very industrious and frugal—even penurious. He afterwards established himself in busi ness, and continuing penurious as well as industrious, he became successful, and amassed property, the posses• sion of which seemed first to have impaired his mind, which seemed to have more decidedly given way on his inheriting freehold property in Wales. It was in the month of July last that his state of mind became appa rent, and his strange and incoherent conduct at the house of Mr. Stocker, gunmaker, of the Strand, ren dered it necessary that he should be placed under re straint, and he was subsequently removed to Northum berland House, where he laboured under the delusion that he was Christ, and also that the Saviour was in the room with him, several hours at a time; that he was im mensely rich, possessed of millions, offering to advance thousands to many persons; that Northumberland House belonged to him, for which he was (as he said) paying 5001. a year; that he (himself) was God Almignty, and so was Mr. Birkett; that he had killed somebody; that he was Buonaparte, and Buonaparte's son; that their at tendants were all Wellingtons, and that he turned into devils of all shapes, being satarised, as he termed it by a large quantity of mercury, which had been given to him by a country doctor, &c. As a further proof o f the state of his mind, he was accustomed to anoint his person with filth, and even to mix it with his food. The unfortunate gentleman, a tall, slim, but wild-look ing man, was introduced and seated by the side of the L arned Commissioner. He said, in answer to questions, that he knew the nature of the inquiry ; that all his re latives lived at Mr. Birkett's ; that his property was worth 25,0001. a year, &c. Ajuror—Do you still carry on business at Birming ham. Mr. Teague (putting himself into a fighting atti tude)—Yes, I'll paint your portrait whenever you please. Having answered two or three other questions, he said, " It's all right—if you want to know any more, speak to Mr. Birkett, for I want my dinner." Here be rose abruptly, and left the room. The jury immediately expressed themselves satisfied, and returned a verdict, dating the unsoundness of his mind from the 29th July, 1846. MANSLAUGHTER. Thursday an inquest was held by adjournment, before Mr. W. Baker, coroner, and a jury, at the Duke of Wel lington, in John-street, Limehouse, on the body of Julia Fitzgerald, aged 15 years, who died on Friday last, from the effects of injuries she received on the Bth of Septem ber last, during a quarrel with a family named King. It appeared in evidence that the deceased was a waistcoat-maker, and formerly lived with her maternal parent, at No. 8, Samuel. street, Limehouse °fields. The family consisted of five individuals, the deceased, her widowed mother, two sisters and a brother, and they occupied on e small room. They were all employed in making up slop work, by which they obtained a very miserable subsistence, their small earnings being scarcely sufficient to procure the necessaries of life. On Tuesday, the Bth of September, the goods of the mother were distrained upon for 12s. 6d., arrears of rent due to her landlord, a man named King, who lived in the same house. A quarrel was the consequence of this proceed ing, and Mrs. King took away the slop work on which Mrs. Fitzgerald and her family were engaged. Mrs. King was assisted in this proceeding by her two daugh ters, Mrs. Green and Mrs. Sumner, and they professed to claim the trousers, waistcoats, and other things, by virtue of an order from a magistrate, which had never been made. The three women followed Mrs. Fitzgerald, and Mrs. King knocked her down and took the property from her. The deceased came to the assistance of her mother, and Mrs. Sumner struck the deceased a violent 'blow on the back with her fists. The girl attempted to enter the house, and Mrs. Sumner again struck her a violent blow on her right side. Green also struck the girl on the right side, and she fell to the ground and fetched her breath heavily, as if she was very seriously hurt. Richard King, a youth, eighteen years of age, the son of the landlord, joined in the outrage on the poor girl, and struck her on the breast close to the coal-hole door. The whole of the goods, which were of trifling value, were taken away by King, and the family %ere turned into the street. They subsequently obtained another apartment at a small house iu George-street, Limehouse-fields. The deceased complained of severe pains in her right side the day she was beaten, and sub sequently she repeatedly said that Richard King had kicked her on the stomach, and that the wretches— meaning King and his family—had murdered her. Her body was severely bruised from the blows she received, and she continued in great pain until Friday last, when she expired. , The CORONER summed up at great length ; and the jury, after deliberating for nearly an hour, returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against Richard King the younger, and Sarah Green and Jane Sumner, his sisters,' and Mr. Baker immodilvely issued !,; a,:preheLsion zisal eornrol;tai to N fiT t Tau Low.—The arrivals continuing large of Russian eausel me ,- chants to submit to reduced rates, makiug the tall front i p a! ,, cl. ; .
