LAW INTELLIGENCE. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, April 1. r.E THE REV. mosEL uum,En. In this case the insolvent had been already before the Court fir hearing two or three times, and the facts re ported in The Sun, when it was adjourned for the pur pose of causing him to amend his schedule. Mr. CookE, who appeared in opposition to the.insol vent's petition to be discharged, on behalf of Metsrs. Scott and Jackson, of Golden-square, said the, Court was aware that the insolvent was a Senior Fellow of King's College, Cambridge, and that it transpired at the former hearing that he was entitled to a certain sum of money from the College. The official assignee had, since the last examination, written to the parties bound t o pay that sum to the insolvent, and had been answered that he (the insolvent) had ordered no person to receive the money save himself, as if such were the case he should compel its second payment to himself. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said that upon looking over the schedule he found the insolvent had not amended it according to the order of the Court, nor made the slightest allusion to the money to which he was entitled from King's College, Cambridge. Mr. WOODRUFFE, who appeared in support of the in solvent's petition, said there were certain amendments which ought to have been made in the schedule, and which could be done in a very short time. Mr. CooKE (to the insolvent)—Did you write, for bidding the payment of this money to the official assig nee ? Insolvent—No. Mr. Cooki-LW;;ill call that person into Court, who will prove the fact. Insolvent—l wrote to say that I was the only person to whom it should be paid. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS—Don't swear by the card. You have acted in such a manner as to totally disentitle you to any relief under the Act. I think from the in solvent's conduct the case should begin de novo ; and I shall, therefore, adjourn it generally. The further hearing of the case was then adjourned generally, with an order for 10 days' notice to creditors. A number of unopposed petitions, of no general in terest, were disposed of during the morning, and the ap plicants ordered to be discharged forthwith. RE JOHN HARLOW. The insolvent formerly carried on business as a tobacconist and snuff manufacturer at No. 7. Leicester square, and subsequently at the house No. 16, in the same place, and his actual debts for value received amounted to about 7501. His petition to be discharged was supported by Messrs. Cook.: and Woodruffe, and opposed by Mr. Nicholls; on behalf of Messrs. Poole. It appeared, from a very lengthened investigation, that in the year 1833, the insolvent took the house No. 7, Leicester-square, from a person named Warren, at the ra.e of 2001. per annum, the upper part being, according to the insolvent's deposition, at the time, and up to the present moment, let oat as gambling rooms. Sir Jacob Astley and Colonel Quin had a mortgage on the entire premises, which was sold to the opposing creditors, and the insolvent, leaving in the year 1835, after paying up all his his rent, a mesne process was brought against several persons, who acted as landlords and trustees over the premises, by the Messrs. Poole, for some alleged act of trespass, and the insolvent included among the defendants, when a verdict was given in litvonr of the plaintiffs, and he thus - became liable for his share of the costs and damages. Being indebted to Mr. Fry, tobacconist and snuff-manuincturer, of Smithfield-bars, (in a large amount, and also to several other creditors; he exe cuted a deed and • warrant of attorney in their favour, for the purpose of making his property available to those whom he considered to be bona fide creditors, to the exclusion of the Messrs. Poole, to whom he did nut consider himself morally, al though he might be legally indebted. Mr. Mcnou,s having urged that the insolvent in point of law was guilty of an undue preference towards certain of his creditors to the exclusion of others, The Learned COMMISSIONER said he could see nothing in the case to induce him to a remand, and he should, therefore, order the insolvent to be discharged forthwith. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION HOUSE. Herbert Godfrey, the policeman who on Saturday charged an elderly woman, named Sarah Lewis, marine store dealer, with having received stolen goods. and was on Monday charged by her with having, iu conjunction with another man, robbed her of a cloak and a time piece, was brought up, and, at the request of Mr. llobler, junior, who appeared for the prosecutor, remanded till this day, when the extraordinary investigation will be closed, by the commitment of the prisoner, after the exa mination of some important witnesses. Reynolds, who was accompanied by the prisoner into Mrs. Lewis's house, has not yet been found ; and Mr. Wontner, the solicitor for the prisoner, complained, on the part of his client, that active measures had not been adopted for taking that person into custody, although the prisoner had expressed the strongest wish to be confronted with him. llobler, junior, observed, that the inactivity of the police upon this occasion, if any actually existed, ought to be complained of to the Commissioners, and not to the Magistrates, who had nothing whatever to do with the force. Two girls, named Sarah Shaddock and Mary Tighe, each of them eighteen years old, were charged with having robbed one of the poor old inmates of Bishopsgate workhouse. The two prisoners have been, almost from their birth, living in the workhouse, in which they frequently distin guished themselves by breaking windows and pelting the orderly residents with bread, appeared, upon being put to the bar, as quiet as mice. The assistant matron stated that the prisoners had just returned to the workhouse from Bridewell, where they had been confined for smashing windows, and upon reaching their old quarters stole the pocket of an old pauper, in which were contained the poor woman's savings, amounting to threepence -halfpenpy. Mr. Booker, one of the parochial officers, said that the prisoners, when they took a fancy to change from the workhous e t o B r id ewe ll, comm itt e d violence o some kind, and thus contrived to have a little variety to their taste, and they had been for a. length of time ungovern able in the former place. Alderman GIBBS said he should try what a little extra discipline w ou ld d o towar d s correcting the girls, and sentenced each of them to be confined two months in Bridewell at hard labour, and to be locked up every other alternate week during that period in a solitarj cell. The Alderman said that he should take very par tiAilar care that the diet of the prisoners should be as low as would he consistent with the preservation of their health.---Tk3 prisoners were then committel. • BOW-STREET. Three boys, varyirg from about 14 to 17 years of age, named • Smith, Barrett, and Cassidy, with the most vil -I,nous casts of countenance which one would meet with in a day's march through the mighty Babylon, were charged with stealing some cigars from the shop of Mrs. Cecille Lewis, in Clare-market. The fair complainant, whose tongue declared her to be.a native of La belle France, stated that yesterday evening, the three boys at -the bar went to her shop and asked for a penny cigar, which she supplied them with ; almost immediately afterwards a little boy informed her that the three boys had puShed aside a small piece of wood from the inside of a broken window, and had decamped with some cio-ars; she immediately gave chase, and in company with a police- Man succeeded in capturing the youthful depredators, when the little boy who had informed her of the robbery, at once recognised them as the offenders. She had seen the two prisoners, Smith and Barrett, lurking about her shop on a previous occasion. A litth boy neat entered the witness-box, and swore most positively that be saw the boys take the stolen property. Tyrrell, the gaoler, said that the two prisoners, Smith and Barrett, were well known; the former had been con victed more than once, and Barrett had been convicted about six times. Barrett—No, no, that won't do, old feller, stick to the truth ; only three. The policeman said that he had seen Cassidy often in the - company of thieves, and he was in the habit of going dancing about Jim Crow on his head. At this juncture the prisoners all three commenced setting up a defence, and as they all spoke at once, the following is the combined harangue of the three which we collected :—" Yer wertship the good lady never see me 'near her shop ; no, yer wertship, nor me neither ; I never goes there. Did you, good lady, see me near the shop ? innocent, yer Lor'ship, of the crime ; when wants a couple 0' ha'pence I sings and dances on my 'ed. I Wits never up afore—l've on'y been conwic ted three ti mes , yer wertship ; him and me's been here afore, but this one (pointing to Cassidy) vos never hup before ; he sings on his 'ed--the good lady never seed none of us." How long this jumble would have continued it is im possible for us to say, had not Mr. JARDINE here cut short their orations by asking them if they thought it likely that he believed what they were saying, when it had been distinctly sworn that they were seen to take the cigars from the shop window. Ile should commit Smith and Barrett to three mouths each, and Cassidy to one month's imprisonment in the House of Correction. The prisoners were then removed, apparently pleased with having got off so easily. MARL BORO UG STR EE Charles Redhead, a dissipated-looking you ng man, was charged with unlawfully p awnin g cert ain materials entrusted - to him by his employers to make up. Mr. George Scott, of the firm of Scott and Edwards, of Conduit-street, Bond-street, tailors, stated that the prisoner had been in their employ for many years past, and was entrusted to have his work out. On Monday last ' a number of doe and chamois skins, toge ther:vvith trimmings, were given to him to , jup by Wednesday, to complete au eaten -4.17 . ' sive order the firm were executing. However, in stead of going to work on them, he directly proceeded to Westminster and pawned part of the property, and on the following day the remainder, and spent the produce, 145., in drunkenness, and afterwards had the impudence to call at witness's house, while in a very intoxicated state, and demand money on account, which being re fused him, he made a great disturbance, and used very abusive language. Mr. HARDWICK inquired what was the value of the property pawned by the prisoner. Mr. Scutt said at least 61., but through the prisoner not executing the work in time, the injury done was irreparable, as he had that morning sent home a part of the order, of which the articles in question formed aj part, and they had been returned on his hands. The property having been produced from the shops of Messrs. Roberts and Harding, of York-street, West minster, pawnbrokers, was ordered to be given up to the complainant, without his paying the amount advanced on it, as Mr. Hardwick cons id ere d that such property, and to so large an amount, should not have been taken in from a person of the prisoner's appearance. Mr. HAnnwicx said he should make an example of the prisoner, for the sake of masters generally, and therefore fined him 4/., in addition to the value, 61, and in default of payment six weeks' imprisonment to hard labour.—The prisoner earnestly implored forgivenness, but of course without avail. Seven females, well-dressed, and five of whom stated themselves to be married women, were brought up on warrants issued against them on the application of the parochial authorities of St. James's, Westminster, under the provisions of the Act of Parliament, .15th Geo. 11., for keeping " disorderly houses, or acting or assisting therein.' As in several cases recently brought before this Court, a professional adviser appeared on behalf of the defendants. The identity of the relative parties having been proved, they were ordered to find sureties to answer and plead to indictments which will, in the course of law, be preferred against them. The nuisance complained of is stated to be of a most revolting charac ter. Its locality it confined, in the present proceedings, to John's-court, Golden.square, and the immediate neighbourhood. The defendants readily obtained the sureties required, and were liberated. Cornelius M.Carty and James Murphy, sturdy young Irishmen, were charged with vagrancy. Wm. Horsford, one of the constables belonging to the Mendicity Society stated, that about half-past six o'clock on Thursday evening he saw the prisoners in company together in St. James's-square, beg of several ladies and gentlemen, and receive alms—their plan was to follow up the persons they solicited until they ob tained something or else abuse them. When they met with unprotected females their importunity was in timidating ; the prisoner Dl`Carty actually followed two gentlemen to whom he was evidently a perfect stranger into the hall of one of the club houses. They. were both old offenders, and had been committed from different Police Courts for similar offences. They resisted vio lently on being taken into custody. Mr. HAanwicK said he was determined to purge the streets of this .decriptien of sturdy beggars' and com mitted each of the defendants to one month's imprison ment, and ordered a record of their convictions to be re turned to the Sessions. _ Horsford stated that just at night fall on Thursday evening he counted no less than 25 young sturdy beg gars in Pall-mall, within 14 minutes. Mary Smith, a young woman, was charged with being concerned with a gang of other females, two of whom stand committed for trial from this Court at the Central Criminal Court, for robberies e&cted by the means of false or skeleton keys, in different lodging-houses in the neighbourhood of Seven Dials. The gang contrived to ascertain when the occupant of an apartment was absent, and availed themselves of the opportunity of entering and plundering the room of every portable article they cotud meet with, great facility t commit this species of robbery being offered by the street-doors in this neigh bourhood being continually left open. The prisoner was fully committed on two separate charges, she having been proved to have disposed of the stolen property immediately after the robberies had taken place. UNION-HALL. George Walker, a pawnbroker, was summoned for taking more than the legal interest on a pledge. The information against the defendant was laid by a common informer who sent t boy to the shop to pledge an article, and in the hurry )7 business a farthing more than the legal interest was demanded and taken. The pawnbroker said that the information was laid by the informer out of revenge, owing to his not giving him an annual allowance, as many o the pawnbrokers did for not laying informations against them. The MAGISTRATE condemned the conduct of inpawn brokers and said, that if such a system prevailed the trade it was scandalous, and he tined the defendant 20s, and costs. SMUGGLING.—A French sailor was charged with smuggling. He wa: taken into custody on landing from a Boulogne steam-vessel, and a bladder containing half a gallon of cognac brandy was concealed in the waist of his trowsers. The defendant was fined 101., and in default of pay ment was committed fur a month. WORSHIP-STREET. A young man, named Henry Fern, was charged before Mr. BiNGHAM with having been found carrying a bladder containing upwards of a gallon of spirits, without having a permit. The offence was fully established by the evidence of a policeman, and of Whiskin, an officer of excise. The prisoner rested his defence upon the old story, that he was employed to convey spirits to a given desti nation by a stranger, who promised to give him a shil ling for his trouble. The prisoner was amerced in the mitigated penalty of 251., or three months' imprisonment. All the other night charges were wholly uninteresting. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, March 30. CROWN SWE—(Bef'.re Mr. Baron PARKE.) Henry Ward was indicted for cutting and wounding his wife, Catherine Ward, with intent to murder her. Another count alleged an intent to do her some grievous bodily harm. Mr. James for the prosecution. The prisoner was not defended by counsel. The prisoner, it appeared, is a fruit-seller in 'Wigan, and on the night on which this occurrence took place, came home in a state of intoxication. He accused his wife of having got his watch, and on her denial attacked her with brutal violence. Some of the neighbours heard her crying out "Oh dear !" repeatedly, as if in great pain, and heard the noise of blows. On going in they found her lying at the foot of the stairs, seemingly severely hurt. The prisoner was not at that time beat ing her, but on going away the attacks, it would appear, had been renewed. Her cries were again heard, mingled with the oaths of the prisoner, demanding to know where his watch was. The neighbours again came in, and found the unfortunate woman lying partly under the bed up stairs, quite insensible, and bleeding copiously from several wounds in the head. The police were called in, and the prisoner was taken into custody. He said he • didn't care if he had killed her, and shouldn't mind being hanged for her. On exa mination by the medical man, it was found that the vic tim of the prisoner's violence had received several wounds on the head, to the number of six or seven, some of which had penetrated to the skull, and divided a branch of the temporal artery on each side. They were of an irregular rounded form, and had evidently been produced by kicks from a heavy shoe. Almost every part of her person gave evidence of the shocking vio lence which had been used towards her. Iler legs were frightfully bruised and swollen. She was dangerously ill for souse weeks, and for a long time was not perfectly recovered. The prisoner said he was intoxicated, and knew no thing of what had occurred. The Jury found him Guilty on the latter count, alleg ing un intent to do souls grievous bodily harm. His LORDSHIP said it was necessary to repress such brutal violence by severe punishment, and sentenced him to be transported for life, intimating that his lot would be cast among those wllo would work in gangs upon the roads. The prisoner was taken from the bar, howling fright fully, and his cries were heard for some time, growing fainter and fainter as he was taken along the passages leading to the Bridewell. WELSH ClRCUlT.—Denhigh, March 25. SERIOUS CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—After church on Friday, several criminal cases were disposed of, and amongst them a very bad case of manslaughter, in which Elias Jones was found guilty of killing and slaying John Jones, of Eglwysfach, on the Bth of September. It appeared that the prisoner had gone to the above named Tillage on that day, and after drinking a consi derable quantity of ale he had quarrAled with several people, and was turned out of a public-house, when he appears to have become quite frantic, and walked up and down the high road brandishing a pair of tailor's shears, declaring he would stick them five inches into the heart of any one who oppOsed him. When opposite the house of the deceased the prisoner used some abusive language towards him, on which the deceased came out and struck the prisoner two or three blows with a walking-stick, whereupon he stabbed the deceased in the groin, making a wound six inches deep. Verdict—Guilty : transported for 15 years. MARCH 26. BURGLARY, NEAR WREXHAM, WITH VIOLENCE.—The greater part of this day was consumed in trying six men, Hugh Price, James Price, John Price, William Junes, Thomas Capper, and Hugh Roberts, for a robbery near Wrexham, at a public-house kept by Mr. T. Ellis, called the Greyhound, on the road to Holt. The prosecutor, Thomas Ellis, had entered upon the Greyhound public •house in the early part of November, 1841, and on the 25th, at 11 o'clock in the forenoon, he went, accompanied by the maid-servant, to Wrexham market, leaving hi s wife, 'Lytle Ellis, alone in the house. In a spare bed-room up stairs were a box and a tea-caddy, the box containing about 30/. in gold, some hand kerchiefs, and other articles ; and the tea-caddy 15s. in silver, an old guinea, and an old half guinea, half a dozen tea-spoons, and a gold seal, all of which were seen safe just before the prosecutor left home. Between 12 and 1 o'clock the six prisoners, together with a man of the name of 'William Clarke, not in custody, went to the Greyhound, and called for some ale, and, after a short time, two of them , James Price and Thomas Cap per, began to dance to a tune on the fiddle, played by who, it appears, is a strolling mu the prisoner Roberts, sician, Capper having taken off his shoes, and Price dancing in clogs, and making a great noise. In the meantime the landlady, an elderly woman, was sent out of the way on various pretences, to draw ale, fetch to bacco, &c., seven or eight times, and about an hour after the prisoners had come to the house she missed. Clarke and Capper. Further on in the day, Clarke and Capper being still absent, the other prisoners pretended that some tobacco they had been supplied with was of short 1 weight, and forced the old lady to go into another room to weigh the tobacco, where they detained her about a quarter of an hour. Afterwards the pri soner, W. Jones, pretending to be drunk, squared at the old woman with his fists, and obliged her to re treat into the road, outside the house, where he de tained her ten .minutes longer. The prosecutor returned home , about half-past three, and at that time the prisoners were still at the house, but left shortly afterwards. In less than a quarter of an hour after they had left, a person came to the house for change, and it was then discovered that the boxes containing the money had been opened, and the robbery effected. The pri soners, J. Price and Capper, were seen about three o'clock by two witnesses in a field near the road, called the Blossoms ; and on the spot where they were seen, the handkerchief and some of the other stolen property were found next morning, covered over with grass. All the prisoners, except Roberts, the fiddler, were also seen the same everting, in company with Clarke, of whom they took leave, and the jingling of money was heard, The Jury retired, and after an absence of a quarter of an hour returned a verdict of Guilty against all, except Roberts. HOME ClRCUlT.—Kingston, April I. (Before Baron GURNY . and Common Juries.) NIPPER V. HOLE.- THE WEST MIDDLESEX ASSURANCE CO3IPANY SWINDLE.-CURIOUS DISCLOSURES, This was an action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant as the originator and principal in the esta blishment of the West Middlesex Assurance Association to rocover from him the sum of 900/., which he had paid to that Company for an annuity of 7€l. 10s., and of which sum, it was alleged, that he had been defrauded by the defendant, and also that the Association had been merely got up for the purposes of fraud. Mr. Platt and Mr. Gurney were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Chambers for the defendant. lir. PLATT, in opening the case, observed that in the year 1836 the defendant set on foot an establishment, which was called the West Middlesex Assurance Association, and from which the public were to derive great advantages. Prospectuses, of a most alluring description, were circulated, and, in the course of a short time, sums, to a very considerable amount, were deposited for the pnrchase of annuities. The prospec tuses set forth that the capital of the Company was one million, which had been raised by the sale of 20.000 shares, at 50/. each ; and the names of fifteen persons, all bearing the title of esquires, were duly advertised as Directors ; and it was further announced that the bankers were—the Bank of England, the Bank of Ire land, and the Western Bank of Scotland. For about four years the concern appeared to be going on prosperously, but at last the bubble burst, and it was then ascertained that the whole was a fraudulent scheme, concocted fur the purpose of entrapping the unwary and plundering them of all their property. It would be distinctly shown, that of the fifteen Directors announced in the pro spectuses, ten or twelve of the names were entirely ficti tious, and the others were persons in a very humble station in life ; that not only was there no capital what ever, but that none of the shares alleged to have been taken had ever been paid for. The learned Counsel, after alluding to the alluring character of the prospectuses, concluded by saying that it was evident the defendant at the time he commenced the undertaking, was aware that it would not be profitable—that he embarked in it for the - purpose of defrauding the unwary—that the whole scheme was founded in fraud, and for the express pur pose of applying to his own use the money invested with the alleged Company. The following witnesses were then called. Mr. H. Harvey said, I was clerk in the office of the West Middlesex Assurance Association from the month of October, 1837,• till its close in January, 1841. The offices were in Baker-street, Portman-square ; the pro spectuses produced were issued from the office ; they contain the names of fifteen persons as directors, amongst them was that of Mr. Henry Alexander ; never saw a gentleman of that name at the office, neither did I ever see more than three or four of the persons named as directors. The book produced (a ledger con taining an account of the annuities granted) was kept by me ; it contains an account of the money received. The defendant generally received the money, and always receiVa'inoney paid for annuities. It was part of the defendant's duty to examine the entries in the book. The defendant was secretary' and treasurer from the commencement of the concern, till the end of September, 1839. lie informed me, in October of that year, that he had resigned his office. He attended the board, and also signed policies. The board met every Friday. There was another clerk in the office, when I first went there. The defendant acted as manager, and I always received my instructions from him. When the establishment was broken up there were a great many persons applying for the money. Mr. Cross, clerk to the plaintiff's attorney, stated that he had endeavoured to subpoena Mr. Williams, senior, solicitor, of Hart-street, Bloomsbury, whose name was inserted in the newspapers as one of the directors, and who was also solicitor to the Company, but was unable to do so, as he was at present, and had for some time, been abroad. Mr. Wm. Wilson said, I was one of the Directors of the Company in question. When I first became con nected with it, I kept a school in the Edgeware-road. I solicited employment as a clerk in-the office. The de fendant said I should be in the office, and he at once placed my name in'the list of Directors. It was subse quently arranged that I should receive 5s per week for my services. I was only required to attend one day in the week, that was on board-day, for the purpose of signing policies. I used to sign all the policies and annuity deeds which were laid before me. A number of shares were allotted to me when I was appointed a Director, but I never paid anything for them. The Company never had any capital that I am aware of. I continued to act as Director till the breaking up of the concern. The defendant was secretary and manager nearly the whole of the time. I signed the deed of partnership previous to the opening of the office. That was in 1836. Amongst the Directors are the names of Henry Alex ander, Esq., Bedford, Esq., B. Ayre, Esq., Hope, Esq., Fergusson, Esq. Ido not know any such per sons. Never saw them at the Board, or at any of the meetings. There are also the names of William Wilson, Esq., and Thomas P. Price, Esq. on the list. lam the person first alluded to as W. Wilson, Esq., and T. P. Price, Esq, is a youth about sixteen years of age, who was employed in the office as writing clerk and to go on errands. A certain number of shares were allotted to each of us, which of course we never paid for. The de fendant always paid me me my salary; he also paid all other persons employed in the concern : it was agreed that I was to have ss. a week for signing the policies, &c. for the first year, and 10s. a week afterwards. After I had been a Director for two years I was promoted to the situation of clerk, at 75/. per annum, but still retained my seat at the board; For my last year's services I re ceived 3001.; but that was after the defendant left the concern. I received the letter produced from the de fendant ; it is in his handwriting. The following letter was then read : " April 23, 1840. " SlR—During the time of my Secretaryship, the fol lowing sums were paid me :—Knowles, 4,040/ ; Mr. Williams, 4,0381. ss. ; Ditto, as Solicitor for office bu5i ne55,1,8571.45.;Mr.H01e,7,3571.; Ditto, on retiring,lo,oool. in manner following—Houses in Gloucester-place, Sur rey-street, and Maida Hill ; to Hole, thefreeholdsB,9oo/. Total to Hole, 26,2571. I have the cheques to prove the sums I have paid to Knowles and Williams ; therefore whoever said I had more than this is a liar, like unto Peter, who denied his master, and afterwards went and wept ; or like unto Judas, who betrayed his master, and went afterwards and hanged himself. All that I have said or written I can prove. "Yours, &c., "W. HOLE." Cross-examined—l keep a small school now in the neighbourhood of Hoxton. I gave up my school, but I went to the Assurance Company as clerk. I received altogether about 700/. during the four years I was in the concern. I insured my life for 1001. in the office. The office was finally closed in January, 1841. Did not think I was doing wrong when I went to the Board. I thought the Directors were all honourable men. I was not startled at the large liabilities I signed my name to, as I was assured by the defendant there was plenty of funds in the establishment. Certainly did not consider there was anything wrong when I saw myself described as a Director, with Esquire attached to my name. The de fendant is my brother-in-law. I placed some reliance on what he said. All the annuities were paid up to the quarter previous to the dissolution of the Company. Be-examined—l insured my life in the concern for 1001., and allowed discount for present payment, and I received 901. I got the money immediately after I in surde. The defendant gave me the amount. Three cheques for 500/. each were here put in. They were signed " William Hole," and made payable to Mr. Williams. One cheque was on the Bank of England, and the others on the Western Bank of Scotland. The witness said, he understood from the defendant, that that money was sent to Scotland, to release Mr. Williams, who had been arrested there by some of the annuitants. By Mr. Baron GURNEY—The concern was broken up through want of funds ; did not know whether there were any assets when it was dissolved. Wm. Edward Taylor said, I was one of the Directors, and was appointed when . the Association was first esta blished ; previous to that period, I was a journeyman locksmith and bell-hanger, and was in the employ of a Mr. Greathead. The defendant married my wife's sister. I was applied to by the de fendant and Knowles to become a Director ; was in • the habit of attending at the board on Fridays. I re ceived 2s 6d. for each attendance, for a year and a half. I afterwards received a salary of 804 per annum, though I only attended as a director to sign my name to policies. Knowles was Chairman of the Directors. I was desired by the defendant to sign my name. I signed all docu ments laid before me. It was at first arranged that I should sign for three years, and 31r. Williams was then to take my place, but at the expiration of that time, he said I might as well continue signing as it was all the same. Mr. PLATT—Did you receive any directions with re spect to and were ordered to wear yes, We were to dress well, rings and jewellery. Mr. PLATT—Did you dose ? llritnessi—Yes, and the defendant gave us rings to wear. A paper in the defendant's handwriting was here read, upon which was a memorandum, dated September 15, 1839, to the following effect :—" Taylor fined for not having on his ring." The witness said they were afterwards fined for a similar offence. Cross-examined—Many fines were levied and exacted. Was ordered by the defendant to sign the documents. Mr. Baron GURNEY observed that thew itness and his colleague appeared to be the " directed," instead of the directors. Re-examined—Knowles and Williams acted as se cretaries after the defendant left the concern. I had no suspicion that anything w as wrong. - I placed great reli ance on the defendant. Williams, Hole, Hastier, and the defendant, used to be in a private room together, except on board days. Joseph Packer, a law-stationer, stated that he was em - ployed to engross the deed of the Company, which was dated 26th September, - 1837 ; saw the first nine names of the list of shareholders signed on that day„ He was.afterwards desired to obtain other signatures to it ; he did so during the vacation in 1840. lie applied to persons indiscriminately to put their signatures to it, and it remained at his office for that purpose. He was employed by Knowles and Williams; recollected being at the Company's office one morning when the de fendant and his wife was there. The post had just been delivered, and he saw the defendant open some letters and take some Bank notes from them; he made some observation to his wife; believed the. words were— " Look here." - He then put the notes into his pocket and went away with his wife. Whenever he got any person to sign the deed, a number of shares was always placed opposite their names. Cross-examined—Knowles married his (witness's)wife's sister. Knowles employed him to engross the deed. The deed creating the Company was then read, by which it appeared that the defendant was appointed secretary, and, ex officio, a director for life ; it further stated that he was to be allowed, besides his salary, 70 shares ; and his wife, as a provision for her, and for absolute use and benefit, was to be allowed 700 shares. Another letter, of which the following is a copy, was then put in. _ _ _ "France, 9th Janstary, 1841. " Knowles,—Thou art a scoundrel, and thy son no better. I shall print and publish all the bye-laws and proceedings which relate to any transactions which I had with the Company, and expose your villainy to Mackenzie, and others; and I give you and your lying rascal of a b notice, that if you or he should dare to publish any slander relative to my character, I shall instruct my solicitor to prosecute you, you d—d perjured scoundrel—you base wretch—swear against your own hand-writing—what, swear you never borrowed my money of me for the office --Oh 1 wicked wretch, I have your signature, and my solicitor has seen it—base—base—base—hang thyself with your friend Williams.—Truth. " WM. HOLE. " P.S. I have heard you have again plundered the office —Ah ! how many times wretch. " Address to kr. Thos. Knowles, 44, Cambridge Ter race, Paddington, London." This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. CHAMBERS then addressed the Jury for the defendant, and in a long speech tried to make the best of a hopeless case. _ _ _ Baron GURNEY addressed the Jury, and said the ,plaintiff in this action sought to recover from the defen dant a sure of money of which he had, as was alleged, deprived her by fraud, and if they believed that the money was obtained by fraud by defendant or by others, acting in concert and conspiracy with him, the plaintiff was entitled to a ver dict. The Jury would look at all the circumstances of the case, and, upon these circumstances, it would be for them to decide whether or not fraud had been proved. It appeared this Association was established in 1836 ; that it professed to have a capital of a million ; that names were put to the prospectus issued to the public, describing persons as " Esquires," some of whom were not in existence, and others were persons of low station, who were paid small sums weekly for signing their names. It also appeared that the defendant was the ori ginal promoter of the undertaking, and that he had the entire management of it. The question for the Jury - was, whether this was really a bona fate Company, established for the purposes of an ordinary insurance association, or whether it was not a scheme, by unprincipled persons, to get possession , of the money of all those whom those prospectuses lured to invest it with them, and then apply it to their own use. In the former ease they would find a verdict for the defendant ; but if they thought that the ground he suggested had been proved, then they would return a verdict for the plaintiff. The Jury immediately returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 900/. STANLEY V. HOLE. This was an action of similar character, against the same defendant, and upon the application of Mr. Cham bers another Jury was empanelled to try - the cause. The sum sought to be recovered was 160/. Mr. PLATT addressed the Jury, and, said that the charge against the defendant was that he had got up a sham insurance society, offering great advantages to the public, and by this means he had induced the plaintiff to invest the sum in question in the concern, and the whole of it had been lo: t. The books were then produced, and it appeared that the plaintiff had paid 160 L to the West Middlesex Assu rance Company, and that she had been guaranteed an annuity of 25/. per annum for that sum. Mr. G. E. Williams was then called. He deposed that he signed the deed of settlement of the Company, but he never paid any thing upon the shares. He and his father acted as solicitors to the Company. Hole, the defendant, first prepared the draft of the deed creating the Association. He came to the office of witness's father, in Hart street, Bloomsbury, in 1836, and he said that several gentlemen intended to form a new Insurance Company, and he wished to know if his father would have any objection to act as solicitor to the concern, and he replied that he had not ; and soon afterwards, he told him that the gentleman had " agreed to ap point him as solicitor, and witness's Lame was joined with. his father's. In 1839 the defendant Holes asked him if lie would like to be secretary, and he then enquired of him whether all the names to the prospectus were bona fide parties, and he said they were. This took place at Hastings, and Hole pointed out a large mansion, near that town, as the residence of Mr. Alexander, one of the names mentioned in the prospec tus ; and witness reluctantly accepted the situation, and acte as secretary. After this witness told Hole that Mr. Hunter u ished to know the addresses of the par ties mentioned in the prospectus, and he burst into a laugh, and said that it was all concocted by him and Knowles ; and, upon this, witness resigned his situation. He remembered a quarrel taking place between Hall and Knowles, and the latter accused Hall of placing the greater part of the money that was received in the affair to his own private account, instead of placing it to the credit of the Company. Cross-examined — His father signed the deed forming the Company, and • actions had been brought against him. His father had purchased property since his con nexion with the defendant, and this had been sold and given up, when lie found it was such a rascally business. His father had now been abroad fornine months. The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 160/., deducting the amount paid for the annuity before the closing of the establishment, but adding thereto the in terest from the period when the money was first placed in the defendant's hands, which reduced the amount to 143/. HOPRINS v. HOLE. Tof the description. The amounthis was an action paid by the plaintiff was 2,6001. f or an ann u ity o f 26C1. a year. The same evidence was adduced, and the Jury found for the plaintiff, damages 2,5001., allowing as in the former case, for what had been paid back in the shape of annuity, and adding the interest.

SUGAR.—Arrivals of Sugar from Jamaica being daily expected, together with the large parcels of Mauritius and Bengal that have been brought forward, has caused the market for West India Muscovadoes Sugar to be in a dull state this week, and for grocery as well as for refining purposes the demand has been limited. bath Grocers and Refiners operated with much caution, and the prices accepted were rather lower, mak ing the decline for the week Gd, and in some cases Is per cwt, and the total sales 680 hhds and tres. The dull ness that exists in the market may, in a great measure, be ascribed to the large supply of Bengal and Mauri tius Sugar. REFINED.—The transactions in Refined Sugar have been upon a small scale this week, the grocers purchasing. only ample for their immediate wants ; the. refiners have been desirous to realise, and have submitted to a reduc tion on last week's rates of is to is 6d per cwt—low brown lumps at 76 to 775, good and fine 78s to 80s, Stan dard Lumps 81s to 81 Gd.
