The LORD CHANCELLOR delivered his judgment in this case. He entertained no doubt of the jurisdiction of the Court, and his decision would be guided by the evidence of the two gentlemen who were the mutual friends of the fa ther and the son. The question was, whether the advance was made in the ordinary way of relationship, or for the pur pose of constituting a debt ; no doubt the taking a security imports, in the first instance, an intention to be repaid, but this sight be rebutted. It was clear that it was not to be considered as a debt to all intents and purposes, but as a means of controlling the son's conduct. The referees had six years allowed them, during which they have cancelled the bond, and if they ought to have done so, that was quite enough to entitle the Court to relieve the obligor. It was clear that the conduct of the son .was such as to give satis faction to his father, and for twelve years after the date of the bond, and six years after the control of the referees over it had ceased, no proceedings had been taken upon it. For these reasons, he was of opinion that the plaintiff was en titled to have the bond delivered up to be cancelled. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT-APRIL 8. George Shillibeer, the omnibus proprietor, was opposed by Mr. Thomas Deane and Thomas Saundars Cave, Esq. The Court held that the point contended for in Mr. Dearle's opposition, viz., a vexatious defence to an action for rest of premises, was not tenable. The opposition on the part of Mr. Cave was to remove from the schedule what were al leged to be libellous statements, the insolvent having in his description stated that he was supposed to be in partnership with Mr. Cave, who claimed to be his agent. He had been arrested by that gentleman for 6501., which claim he dis puted. His debts amounted to between 4,000/. and 5,000/., including the sum for which he bad been arrested. He ascribed his insolvency to Mr. Cave, who had promised not to call on him for the money if the concern be em barked in failed. From the mass of evidence adduced it appeared that Mr. Cave purchased a considerable property in the Old Kent road for 7,900/. and, being anxious to let some warehouses, the in solvent was introduced to him, and he offered to assist him to the amount of 1,0001. or 1,500/. The insolvent said he should build omnibuses, and run them on the Green wich road ; 1,500/. was advanced, and Mr. Cave went on advancing till May, 1836, to the amount of upwards of 8,000/. A number of letters were read, written by the in solvent to Mr. Cave, in which he expressed his gratitude for his kind assistance. In the last year Mr. Cave gave a check for 500/., to be advanced to insolvent, to prevent an extent at the suit of the Crown for arrears of duty, and took a promissory note from insolvent for 3,900/., and a cognovit on his property, which he then estimated as worth about 4,0001. Further loans were subsequently made, and Mr. Cave, who was examined, said Mat he never should have arrested the insolvent had he not annoyed him with threats to extort money and expose him. His only object was to remove the libellous statements from the schedule. No man should exceed him in kindness, but he never would yield to extortion. After hearing Counsel on both sides, Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said that the schedule must be dismissed, and a fresh order for hearing granted, so that the creditors could see the true state of the case. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORFOLK CIRCUIT, NORWICH, APRIL 7. SENTENCE ON THE DENVER MURDERERS. Mr. Justice COLTMAN, on taking his seat this morning, ordered the above unhappy men to be placed at the bar. This' being done, his Lordship proceeded in the most so lemn and feeling manner, to pass the last sentence of the law upon them, holding out to them not the most remote ground on which to found any hope of mercy here on earth. The law had been most atrociously and unnecessarily in vaded in their persons, for they had sought for a victim of their lawless ends in an innocent and harmless old woman, who could not have offered any resistance to the gratifica tion of the mere purposes of plunder. During: the whole time thus occupied all the prisoners preserved an air of the most unconcerned indifference, leaning over the bar at which they stood as if nothing particular was going on. At the conclusion of the sentence Timms, who is a most ruffianly looking-looking fellow, said " Well, my Lord, though we suffer for it in this world, we shan't in the next ; " while Smith insisted on having a waistcoat and handkerchief given up to him which had not been produced yesterday. Varnham, however, whose personal appearance was less offensive to the eye than those or his companions in crime, and who was called by several of the witnesses " Jock with the long hair," behaved in a more subdued manner ; and it is to be hoped that in his case, at any rate, the well-timed admonitions of his Lordship will not have been altogether thrown away. It is said that the county will have been put to an ex pense of more than 5001. in bringing these villains to jus tice. It is expected that Timms will " let out" a great deal, as he seems inclined to be communicative, and has already told the gaoler's daughter that he had very nearly " cut his own throat once on a former job," at the same time showing his scarred neck. BURGLARY.—Wm. Baker, aged 25, was indicted for having burglariously entered the house of Bridget Rix, at Blofield, in this county, and with having stolen various arti cles and money therein, on the night of the 25th of March, 1835. Mr. MALTBY, for the prosecution, called ;N itnesses to the following singular facts : The prosecutrix, who is a buxom widow, " fat, fair, and forty," deposed to her having been aroused in the dead of the night by the appalling vision of a man in dark apparel, who had a candle and lantern in one hand, with which he knocked her toes to wake her, while he held towards her head a cocked pistol in the other. Terrified out of her speech, a fe.► minutes elapsed ere she spoke, or even awoke her daughter, who was sleeping with her ; at length she summoned up courage to ask what his pleasure might be ? Money," quoth he, " and money I will have ; so give us your purse." Resistance being useless, and only likely to lead to worse consequences, the trembling lady delivered to him, with an aching heart and a sigh, her pockets. Thi s the stranger eagerly snatched from her, and, plunging hi s brawny fist into their depths, as quickly flung them away, exclaiming, "'Why, there's only an old knife and some cop pers !" Anxious to avert the coming storm, for he had cocked his pistol as he spoke these words, Miss Christmas Rix rose from her recumbent posture, and, clasping her hands, besought the maraud& to spare her mother's life, and that she would give him her purse. " Very well," said he, " give it." No sooner said than done ; the purse found its way into his outstretched hands, and, though his face was carped, and otherwise blackened, poor Miss Christmas could see his eyes glisten as he counted her four bonnie golden sovereigns, besides many other gentlemen of less degree, all of which ha successively bundled into his pocket. " Any thing more ?" said their inexorable friend. " You've got a watch, I know ; give it up I" At this almost supernatural exhibition of an intimate acquaint- ance with their possessions a cry of grief rose from the beleaguered dames. Once more did Mrs. Rix meditate a trick upon the man, but the click of his pistol almost threw her into a fit. Up jumped Miss Christmas then, and a second time averted the progress of crime. Stretching across the bed, she ferretted her tiny hand among her clothes, which were lying on the chair by the bedside, and drew forth a golden wat c h a nd a pp en d ages . At sight of this the man said " Ah !" as if he was satisfied at his night's work, and, seizing hold of the treasure, stalked majestically from the presence of the ladies, who, very wisely, instantly got up and locked the door.—The Jury fuund the prisoner not guilty. After hearing evidence, the Jury then gave their verdict —" We find it a libel." Judgment will be given in the Court of King's Bench. SATURDAY. JACKSON V. JACOB. This was an action to recover:compensation in damages for the non-delivery of certain shares in the Great Wes tern Railway Company. The jury found for the plaintiff.—Damages, 412/. 10s. (the sum claimed.) ADDY V. GARRATT, CLERK. This was an action for damages for a breach of contract in the defendant removing his wife from the lodgings of the plaintiff at Southport, without having giveb the stipulated notice.

SAT UIIDAY. RAPE.—Thomas Morley, aged thirty-seven, was indicted for the above offence on the 17th of March, and Thomas Walker, aged twenty-two, was charged with being present aiding, and abetting. The prosecutrix, Eliza Everett, a rather pretty girl, of sixteen, proved the commission of the offence imputed to the principal prisoner, and the case was assuming a rather serious complexion, when the prosecutrix plumply denied an essential feature in the case sworn to by her before the magistrates, and on which the Learned Counsel had dwelt in his opening to the Jury. Under these circumstances, his Lordship was of opinion that the ease ought not to be any further proceeded with, and the Jury being impressed with the same view of the matter, both the prisoners were acquitted. NORTHERN CIRCUIT..--LIVERPOOL, APRIL 7. ILEX V. ROSS AND ANOTHER. This was an action on a criminal information filed by Mr. Charles Lawrence of Liverpool, against the proprietors of the Liverpool Chronicle. Mr. CRESWELL, as counsel for Mr. Charles Lawrence, a well-known and highly respected inhabitant of Liverpool said, it was his duty to bring before his Lordship and the jury the particulars of a libel which had been published by the defendants concerning the plaintiff. Mr. Lawrence had been elected a town councillor for St. George's ward, and shortly after his election the libel complained of appeared in the Livery' Chronicle. STATE OF TRADE. • (From the Leeds Illercury.) TRADE OF LEEDS. —Since our last remarks we are unable to report any favourable alteration in the woollen trade. The sales in the cloth halls have been uncommonly limited, and we think the same observation, although not perhaps in so strong a degree, applies to the warehouses. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—There has been about the same amount of business done in the cloth hall as last week, without any material alteration in prices. Business in general is flat. BRADFORD MARKET.—«'e cannot make a more favourable report of the piece-market to-day ' • the same flatness still con tinues. As comparatively little business has been done we cannot quote any alteration in prices since last week. HALIFAX MARKET.—We are not enabled to announce any improvement in the demand for stuff goods. Lastings have been offered to-day at rather low prices, but have met with few buyers. The yarn market remains in the same dull state as noticed in our last, with little or no variation in prices. There is not much business doing in the wool market; there is a moderate demand for good hog and wether wools, which main tain their prices within a shade. There is a further reduction in the value of short wool and noils. HECKMONDWIKE MARKET.—The market here remains very flat, and although a few more merchants appeared to-day, yet only very little business was done, and prices are looking down. WAKEFIELD WOOL-MARKET.—The trade continues very flat and inanimate, and we can report few sales in either long or short wools this week ; although prices remain nominally the same, no doubt holders would submit to a reduction from late quotations, were consumers to come forward to purchase to any extent. PUBLIC SALE OF SILK IN MANCHESTER.—The wishes of the silk-dealers and manufacturers in this town and neighbourhood have been for some time expressed, that the importers of raw silks would establish a market in this town, inasmuch as the greater part of the silk imported into England is thrown and ma nufactured in the district. In compliance with their wishes Messrs. Bindloss and Preston, silk-brokers, have prevailed upon the importers of recent arrivals of silk from Bengal and China to offer upwards of 600 bales for unreserved public sale. This sale took place yesterday in the theatre of the Mechanics' Institution (which furnished a most commodious sale room), Mr. Preston officiating as auctioneer. The attendance of dealers, throw sters, and manufacturers, was very large ; and, notwithstand ing the depressed state of the trade, nearly the whole of the silks offered were sold. Though the prices, as compared with those of the preceding sales, were very low, we believe they were generally about five per cent. higher than those previ ously realized by private sale. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET.—The Market to-day has been extremely dull, and the few pieces that have been sold are at three to four shillings a couple lower than last week. In wool there has been little or nothing doing, and its price has undergone no variation. THE MANCHESTER TRADE. --The feeling in the Market yesterday, we regret to say, was very gloomy, and prices were somewhat lower. Neither in goods nor in yarns_ were any symptoms of amendment perceptible. Amidst all this flatness and decline, however, it is a great subject of congratulation, that hitherto we have bad in this town so few failures. Two were spoken of yesterday; the one a very old, though not very extensive, calico printing-house ; the other an establishment of somewhat recent formation, as spinners and power-loom manufacturers. LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, Ariz', 8. The demand for Cotton throughout the week has been limited, and prices of American, except the finer qualities, have declined per pound, at which the market closes with a very heavy and gloomy appearance. Egyptian is neglected, and prices almost nomi nal. Brazil is ready of sale, but unchanged in price. Surat is in very limited demand at former rates.

A numerously attended meeting of the niembeii of the A; Chester Chamber of Commerce and Manufactures was bel twelve o'clock to-day, for the purpose of taking into more liberate consideration a communication from the merchant Liverpool, requesting the co-operat;on and assistance of Chamber in their endeavours to obtain such pecuniary vances from Government as may enable them to avoid ruinous sacrifices which forced salts, in the present deprer state of the market, would involve. A meeting of the Directors of the Chamber of Commc was held yesterday, at which the subject was diiew.sed at e, siderable length; but it was eventually determined that question was of too great importance to be decided withote general meeting, and one was called accordingly, to be b at the office of the Chamber, in King -street, at the time ab, specified, when G. W. WOOD, Esq., having been appointed to the Ch that gentleman stated the object of the nicetinu; after which Mr. MACVICAR (the late Boroughreeve) read the " Men rial," which the Ch am b er was called upon to support, wh. was as follows _ . ‘. To the Right Honourable the Chancellor of his illajest. Exchequer. " The memorial of the undersigned merchants, broke and other inhabitants connected with the trade Liverpool, . _ " Respectfullyshoweth—Th a t the distreis of the mercant interest is intense beyond example, and that it is rapidly e. tending to all ranks and conditions of the community, so as threaten irretrievable ruin in all directions, involving the pr dent with the imprudent, the manufacturer with the mercha , and the weavers, spinners, and labourers generally, with t' manufacturers themselves. " Your memorialists will not now enter on an examinati. of all the causes which have led to the existing convillsic: they are aware that the late high prices of commodities main.. contribute to produce unfavourable exchanges. These hi_ prices have passed, and are now succeeded by such a fall cannot fail in time to attract the capital of the whole mercar. tile world to the relief of the present pressure. • " Your memorialists know better than to ask for any assist ance which could restore high prices ; the losses must by borne; all they humbly ask is that measure of relief which will save numbers, of all classes, from total ruin—ruin not proceeding from insolvency, but from the total impossibility of disposing of their property in time to meet their . present and approaching engagements. " Tour memorialists farther submit that the present condi tion of affairs, unless mitigated, may involve the public peace, and deeply aff,et his Majesty's revenue. " Your memorialists therefore pray that these premises ma , be taken into immediate consideration, and that such relit maybe gra.npd_as to your judgment may be deemed safe ant , expedient. " And your memorialists will ever pray." Several gentlemen addressed the meeting in support of tb application► of the memorialists, and recommended the co-ope ration of the Chamber. Mr. SAMUEL FLETCIIER said they wished facts to be placed before them, to justify interference under the circumstances. Mr. SMITH entered into a detail of the causes of the stagna tion which had rendered the proceedings on the part of the Li vcrpool merchants necessary. The discredit attached to Ame rican paper was such, that no discount cculd be procured ; bah, from that quarter had become so much waste paper, and, thAt resource failing, the merchant had none left but to sell his pro.. duce at any sacrifice, or obtain a loan. It had been customary for merchants to draw bills in anticipation of sales on the brokers who held the property; but the Bank of England hail refused to dis count such paper, and other banks had followed the example; therefore, nothing remained for the merchants but to sell their produce at ruinous loss, or at once to suspend pa ) meats; and wale of tile most respectable houses in Liverpool had been compelled to suspend payment under those circumstances. The relief sought was an advan ce in Exchequer Bills from Government, which would afford something like the accom modation formerly obtained from the brokers, if Government refused, numbers would be reduced to the necessity of sus pending payments, and what the eventual consequence would be it was impossible for him to tell. A MEMBER here observed, that he thought the matter might be urged upon Government by the Liverpool merchants, wit_ out mixing up the Manchester Chamber of Commerce with the application. Mr. NEILD said the question for their consideration was, whether the circumstances of the case called for the inter-. fetence of the Government or not? This was a question in which this district was as deeply involved as Liverpool ; as, Li: a : quantity of produce were thrown on the market at such to time, the amount of suffering it would occasion would be very great. What was most wanted was the restorapon of con tidonce ; and if the relief sought for would have that feet, it would be wise in the Chamber of Commerce to give, to the gentlemen of Liverpool the aid they solicited at their hands. Mr. CIIEETIIAM argued against the necessity of interfering the matter, and contended that the alleged consequences to Lis district was of much less importance than some appeared imagine. In compliance with the request of Mr. Neild, the CHAIR. MAN made some observations illustrative of the case under re view. He was, he said, from principle, exceedingly hostile to anything in the shape of interference by Government in com mercial affairs. In the year 1826, however, a question of the same sort came before the 'Chamber, and he (Mr. Wood) and a gentleman who sat near him (Mr. Ashton) were amongst those who were appointed to go up to London to represent the wishes and wants of the people of Manchester to Lord_ Liverpool. The deputation consisted of nineteen, severally interested in the manufacturing, spinning, and printing depart ments ; and they succeeded in convincing Ministers that the, well-being of this district depended upon their granting the• assistance sought for. Lord Liverpool was, however, when: they entered the room, determined to resist any application or the kind; and it was only from a subsequent conviction, that : it was a case warranting a departure from the usual course, that he was induced to yield. There were three Ministers or the Crown present—the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Secretary of the Home Department, and the President or the Board of Trade, and they agreed in thinking that the measure would be very beneficial. It was certainly called for at the time, and did great good ; and it was for the meeting to say whether the present case was entitled to similar con-• cession. Mr. ASIITON, in reference to the proceedings when he formed one of the deputation alluded to by the Chairman, said that the argument then was the distress of the working classes in the manufacturing districts. Ile did not know whether the present arguments would avail. Mr. RAn.roN observed th 0. it had been said that there was no distress here, and therefore that they had no interest in the question ; but when they saw how fast it spread over Liver pool, they might expect it before long. If Manchester did not apply, therefore, for immediate relief—if their case was not pressingly urg,Jit, he thought a Commission should be ap pointed to act as circumstances might require. Ile showed, from a reference to former loans, similar to the one now asked. for, that the utmost of the loss sustained by Government was. 24 per cent. on the gross sum ; and he thought there were: gentlemen present who might make out, from their knowledg(.l of the question, a precautionary case, which would place Ma',l - in a safer position. There was no secret in it tyjw, and they might tell the meeting what amount was lost, Mr. CLARK said the question was s 'whether the parties con cerned might not force sales, in t:ne first instance, with Thore advantage than after they had accepted a loan, as the time for sacrifice must come. The CU AIRMAN, in again adverting to the advances made by Government on a former occasion, said that the bilis taken were wily for three months, with an understanding tivat they shay:J(l be renewed if good and sufficient cause were shown r. but then the first bills had to be taken up before any fresh,. advance was made, and therefore the extended time was or, but little use. Mr. ROBERT GARDNER emphatically contended that great: distress must accrue if the application under cr,nsideration werea not acceded to ; - the operatives would not, ttarve quietly not any more than they did formerly ? and, if led on by dema gogues. there was no telling the consequences. Asa persott largely engaged in manufacturing, he would say he could not: go on without effecting sale;, and no sales could be made.. 4 They were lately all goi'ag mad one way, and now they seemed to be going 'mad on the other. If Government.: granted the loan, hut few would avail themselves of it, for it . would restore coal/le/Ice, and there would no longer be occ-s - sion for ..i. It was urged that relief was not wanted in ti c is district, bait roost assuredly it would be if it were not imm ol d:Lately !!,ranted to Liverpool. Mr. NEYANT said, when he looked at the great advan res made by the bankers to Liverpool merchants, he thougb it. if they chose to place themselves in such a position they had no. claim, they could make no case to entitle. them to :aid. The Bank of England would not advance without sect trity, and he doubted if the produce now in their hands would cower what they wanted. The people of Liverpool went blinedv on, while in Manchester they were in t:ne habit of looking, 'liKe an experienced chess player, three or; four moves forward. If a Manchester man purchase in Liverpool, cash is expected ; if the Liverpool people purchase in Manchester, they offer bills_ He (the speaker) had no 'difficulty in getting good bills dis counted. If they would deal so largely in the manufactory of paper they must take tae consequences. A numbc,r of other gentlemen spoke for and against the proposed, interference of the Chamber (but the preceding wily be stacient to show the character of their several arguments) ) , after which it was moved by Mr. Roberts, and seconded by ItTaa Hoole, That although the present situation of the commerce- of Manchester is not such as to require assistance from Govern ment to this town and neighbourhood, this ',,neetinir is of opinion that, looking to the probable consequeue-es of the heavy calami ties apprehended by the merchants of Liverpool, and to the manner and degree in which they may affect the interests of the manufacturing districts, the ;application of that body for aid should be supported by a der / utatien from this Chamber." The following art:end:want was then moved and seconded : " That the eourmercial state of this town and neigl6oor hood not being; such as to require assistance from (govern ment, and tnis meeting not being sufficiently inforr.icd as to the 'Acts which induced the merchants of Liverpool to ado pt tho memorial which has been read, cannot take atny measure to support it." The amendment was put and lost by a law . j e majority, and the original motion was carried. It was then proposed that the Presider.t and Vice-Presi.. dent be appointed a deputation. Mr. V iVooD begged to bia excused, but the motion was eventually tarried. Thanks were then voted to the chair, and the rueetin g separated, having oc cupied upwards of three hours.
