HE GREAT SOCIAL MYSTERY.—The recent change in the law of Separation and Divorce has 'raised up a new problem which taxes the ingenuity of social philosopher:3 to solve. In a nation so renowned as this for the sanctity of its domestic tics, it appears unaccountab'e that so many *marriages, contracted under circumstances apparently 4 m B Pidous, should result in sorrow, disgust, and degradation, and t'nat this should occur even to those who before wedlock bap. passionately loved each other. If the inquirers into the cause of this mystery had consulted !the great book of nature, instead of dwelling on conventional theories, they might probably have had less difficulty in arriving at the truth. Piave they ever sufficiently considered bow much these constant revelations of unhappy marriages may be connected w'..111 a peculiar INFLUENCE, frequently , originating in. co7rupt associations at college, or at school, and the lielmielf..us effects of which, too often unsuspected by medical men. poison the very well-springs of life, and produce Many of th`.:: disappointments witnessed in the connubial state. It is a matter that deeply concerns the well-being of thou sands who have no idea of the danger that threatens them. T.very person of intelligence should ask himself whether there be not something in his past life which admits of the possi bility thal he himself may be concerned, either at present or prospec 4 ,lvely, in the subject. Science and experience, founded on pro sessional study, have happily discovered effectual means of re'def ; but it is important that care be taken in selecting the quarter from whence assistance is sought.

COURTENAY, And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuab, contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

If they were colluding to defraud the bank. Mr. Holcroft, who Wag a most respectable man, had certainly been accommodated from time to time by the prisoner. with loans of raoney, which he had from time to time repaid, and, believing the other prisoner to be a person of the highest integrity, he had allowed him, to use his own word, to " operate" on his account, never imagining that he would do so dishonestly. Darden asked his permission to pay certain sums to his account, and then representing that he had done so, got him to sign cheques for those amounts to withdraw those sums. The prisoner Darden had described to one of the witnesses large quantities of property of which he was possessed, and it was not surprising that a man doing such large transactions should have considerable sums to pay into a bank and withdraw from it. At all events his conduct admitted of two solutions, and he (Mr. Wontner) trusted that the magistrate would take the more charitable view of it. Mr. Henry—They- have not shown the amount of his real account, but it is opined that it was very small. Mr. Wontner—No doubt. He allowed the other to operate with it. Mr. Henry—l think that shows collusion. Mr. Wontner—lt does not show a fraudulent collusion. Mr. Henry—l shall submit that question to a jury M . r. Wontner—Will you admit him to bail, sir P Mr. Henry—Certainly not. I have well consi dered the matter. The prisoners must be remanded. The prisoner nurden—Can I have a cab ? Mr. Henry--I make no distinctions. The prisoner Durden—But I cannot get into the van. Mr. Henry—ls that really so ? Sergeant Holmes, who had Burden in charge, said—lt is so. He has lost the use of one side from paralysis. Mr. Henry—Oh, well, if he is incapable of being removed in the van, he can have a cab. (From the Daily News.) The prisoners were then removed, Durden being assisted out of court by the officers. TILE NAVY: Her Majesty's ship Trident, Commander Nicolas, has returned to Woolwich for repairs of paddle. wheel, damaged on entering Sheerness. The repairs will be completed by Monday next, when she will return to the Nore, under the orders of the Port Admiral, and will proceed thence to Hull for the protection of the North Sea fisheries. The Isis, 44, fitting for Sierra Leone, and the screw gun vessel Pigeon, 5, both of which are in the second dock at Chatham, will, according to present arrangements, be undocked on Monday next, when the Hussar will be placed in the same dock. The Pigeon has been fitted for the third division of the Steam Reserve. The screw gun vessels Dart, 5, and Sparrow 5, each of 80-horse power, which arrived at Chatham a few days since, are to be attached—the former to the second-class and the latter to the third-class Steam Reserve. It blew a hard gale from the southward at Chatham all yesterday afternoon, making communication with the various ships in harbour hazardous. There was also a great deal of rain. The Icarus, 11, screw, Commander N. Salmon, V.C., is clearing out alongside the sheer jetty of Portsmouth dockyard, pending further orders. The Victory, 104, flagship of the Commander-in- Chief at Portsmouth, will be placed in dock for examination on the 28th inst. Commander W. T. F. Jackson, R.N., arrived at the Admiralty, Whitehall, yesterday, with de spatches from Admiral Mundy at Naples. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Henry Hosken, second master, to the Victory ; Robert J. Roberts, first class assistant engineer, to the Cumberland, for charge of the machinery of the Camelcon, in lieu of a chief engineer ; William Hammond, third-class assistant engineer, to the Asia, as supernumerary ; and J.

A l / 4 9 Committee - Orthellerciihtile La‘AnEind ment Society have issued their report upon the Attorney-General's new Bankruptcy Bill. It con tains a digest of the principal clauses of the measure to which the committee consider it necessary to direct the attention of commercial men, with com ments upon the changes in the law those provisions will effect. With the exception of a few matters of. detail which appear to require alteration, the com mittee speak of the Bill in terms of unqualified ap probation, and express their gratitude to the Attorney-General for the labour he has bestowed upon the subject. The amendments suggested in the report are as follows ;—" That creditors' assignees; should not be called upon to give security, as, such an obligation would deter any banker or mer chant from accepting the office. That the manager, who is to wind up a bankrupt's estate under the the direction of the assignees,- should he ap- , pointed by such assignees, not by the creditors ; and that it should not be necessary for the as signees to call a meeting of creditors in order to obi:ain their discharge. That the b nkrupt shall have his order of discharge granted at the meeting. for his examination in all unopposed cases, instead of having to attend another meeting which would have to be advertised. That the Court shall not in any case have power to refuse an order of discharge to a bankrupt who shall conform, since such refusal: might (after the abolition of the Insolvent Debtors' Court) operate as a sentence of per petual imprisonment, and a bankrupt arrested by a creditor subsequently to the refusal of his order of discharge would have no tribunal to which he could apply for release from custody. That the majority to bind a minority with respect to deeds for effecting private arrangements shall be a majo rity of the creditors iu number representing three fourths in value, instead of a majority of three.- fourths in value only, as proposed by the bill." By the commercial community the amendments thus suggested will probably be deemed not only reason able but indispensable. The report concludes by stating that, although the committee regret that the . law has not been consolidated, they have no hesita tion in stating that with the modifications named the bill will satisfactorily fulfil mercantile require ments, and they accordingly appeal to all bank ruptcy law reformers to exert themselves to facili tate its progress. The good sense of the House of Commons triumphed last night over inveterate prejudice int the discussion of those essential clauses of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Bill which are to maks the property of a non-trader debtor liable to the same law of distribution among his creditors as that of the trader. Sir G, Bowyer described the Law of Bankruptcy as a tremendous engine for cutting up a debtor and distributing his property among his creditors, and hoped the country gentry would consider carefully before they subjected themselves to its tremendous power. Everybody, but especially their cre ditors, must hope so too, but this they may do by the simple expedient of paying their debts. If through misfortune or improvidence they are unable to do that, it does not seem so very hard that their property should be divided, just like that of other insolvents, amongst their credi tors to whom it of right belongs. It is very incor rect to represent the Law of Bankruptcy as it is proposed to settle it by this bill, as a law of severity not calculated for the relief of the debtor. Colonel Dunne repeated the " country-gentleman's" argu ment, until a stranger might have supposed that the class endangered instead of being rooted in the nation by fixed possessions were a mob of Montague Tiggs. As the Attorney-General observed, the people who will feel the inconvenience of the pro posed reform are those who go abroad, livein shame ful extravagance, on means which rightfully belong to others, and laugh at their creditors. Cases of this kind are very common, and it is not because such persons are non traders that the law should not provide means by which their property may be given to those to whom it is due. Sir Hugh Cairns and Mr. Walpole put the opposition on most tenable ground when they admitted the principle of assimi lation and directed their criticism to the guarantees against improper adjudication of bankruptcy which the circumstances and legitimate habits of the non trader render necessary. In opposition to Sir G. Bowyer, Sir H. Cairns admitted that to be subject to the bankrupt law is, to a certain extent, a benefit and not a disadvantage to the non-trader. But he apprehended danger from the power which he supposed would be given to creditors to present a petition for an adjudication in bankruptcy before judgment obtained. But, as the Attorney-General showed, in every such case the creditor seeking to establish an act of bankruptcy against the non trader debtor must prove the malus animus of the debtor ; and not only so, but that he had exhausted all the means in his power togive the debtor notice i of his application to the Court. • There were clauses which provided the mode of giving such notice, if it could be done ; and they were for the benefit and security of the debtor, and to prevent his being made a bankrupt before be had received such notice. But, even if notice could not t'e given to the debtor, it would then be necessary for the creditor to satisfy the Cou r t that all the means These his power h a d b een resor t e d t o to do so. 'CSC! explanations appear to have satisfied the house. 3/.4.N.1FE8 TO BY DON JUAN. The lndependance Beige publishes the following manifesto by Don Juan : TO THE CARLIST PARTY. The sad loss of my beloved brothers obliges me to address those who have faithfully followed my father's flag. You are perhaps aware that on several occasions I have not approved of the conduct of the Carlist party, and that I have sometimes blamed the obsti nacy with which that party has maintained certain views little in accordance with the spirit of the age, and that, if I have not opposed them, it has been through respect for my departed brother, as well as from the conviction that, consistently with the doctrines of pure monarchy, it belongs to the prince to establish the policy that he deems suitable to the country. Since the Tortosa renunciation it has been my duty to take a clear and frank attitude, and to make known my ideas and intentions. It is needless to recall to your minds the opinions con tained in my manifestoes ; they are the genuine expression of my convictions. I shall never depart from what I have offered, and I shall never retract what I have signed. I thus accomplish a duty which honour imposes on me, and on this point even those who do not agree with my views will do me justice. I well understand how, in reflecting on your position, you should hesitate between the principle of legitimacy which attaches you to my person and the ideas which I hold, and which are not those which formerly served as a flag for the Carlist party. Nevertheless, you will not forget that neither civilisation, nor progress, nor the spirit of the age, nor liberty, is in opposition to the legitimacy of the rights which I represent ; that I hold to them firmly, and that I desire to see them consecrated by the principle of the national sovereignty, to which I shall appeal at the fitting moment, when circum stances are favourable. Recollect your own history since the death of King Ferdinand VII., and you will see that politi cal exaggeration has been the cause of all your misfortunes; it brought about the first emigration in 1833, the treaty of Vergara, and all the evils which the defenders of legitimacy have suffered ; these misfortunes have struck the men who held to my father and my brother, not for the rights which they represented, but from base and disloyal motives. This party, made desperate by its impo tence, has finished its career by resolving itself little by little into a section of the Queen's party. Among the men that compose it there are several points of analogy with what I have always de fended, or at least the hope of seeing realised, the regime which has been their ideal. As for you who have still fought on, while suffer ing so many griefs, with an heroic resignation, and who are bound to my lot because you respect in me the legitimate heir of your monarchs, named kings by the will of the people, unite yourselves to me, accepting frankly my political opinions, because they are those of the majority of the nation, and by them we shall accomplish the happiness and pros perity of the country.

During a fearful gale, at six a.m. on the 19th inst., the cable of a coasting sloop, the Mary and Ann, of Newport, Pembroke, snapped asunder, close under the cliffs, about half a mile below where the French invading force, under General Tate, landed at Pencaer, 67 years ago. Intelligence of the wreck was brought to the Fishguard Lifeboat Station, and the lifeboat was expeditiously manned and rowed round the coast to the spot. The sloop was wrecked against a small precipitous island, with a channel between it and the mainland about 40 yards across, through which the sea burst with great fury. One of the crew of the sloop was cast by the waves on the side of the cliff facing the land. Another could be seen lying on his stomach, with his head to windward, clinging to a ledge of rock seaward of the island, every wave washing over him. Several ladders were lashed together and a rope made fast to the top. This extempore bridge was thrown aecross the channel, but was im mediately broken by the force of the waves, and the ladders and rope washed adrift. The lifeboat arrived, but from danger of being wrecked could not be of any service. Albert Furlong, aged 19, a native of Fishguard, then volunteered to swim across the Channel with a rope tied to his waist, so as to be hauled back if unsuccessful; but the bystanders refused, judging by the fury of the waves and his apparent physical incapacity for such a feat that he would certainly be drowned. David Beddoe, a seaman, nothing daunted by their refusal, slipped off his coat and waistcoat, climbed down the cliff, and plunged into the sea, closely followed by Furlong. The bystanders actually ran away " rather than see two men drown in that way." After several times missing his hold of the opposite rocks Beddoe got a footing, when at the end of the channel, and within a few feet of being washed out to sea. Young Furlong, also, after frequently , missing his hold, grasped some seaweed, and, managed to get a footing beyond reach of the waves. Their late companions had by this time A mustered curiosity to look after their . a te 'cr a o nd ss seeing the heroes so far safe one ventßursdoea and with a rope and was pulled up Furlong.

One lad, aged 14, was washed away from the wreck and drowned. The man who had been on the ledge was about 60, and by the time he reached the mainland his arms were stiff in the position he grasped the rock, and he evidentl y could not have lived there much longer.

The beautiful spire of Chichester cathedral, together with its tower and supporting arches, fell in one crash this afternoon, about 2a minutes to two o'clock. For some time past the attention of the architect, Mr. Slater, has been directed to the restoration of the south-west and north-west piers, which were in a very defective state. Every precaution has been or was in the course of being taken to give the tower proper support, but oh Sunday last some of the old stonework gave way and workmen were set on to strengthen the sup ports. Still, we believe, no fear such a calamity as we now record 'Was anticipated, two et:11111'0A engineers and the cathetlttl architect holding the opinion that Ult. spire was safe. During this morn ings huVvever, a very ominous cracking, giving way or plaster, and falling of pieces of stone, gave warn, ing of danger, and on the men returning from dinner to their work they were ordered to desist and leave the building. By this forethought their lives vveresaVed, and up to the present time there is ' no person missing. Another fortunate circumstance is, that in falling, the spire, according to eyewit nesses, crumbled into itself, the area of ruin being little larger than the spate occupied by the tower and its supports. The transept, nave, and choir, remain apparently safe. The fall seemed to be a gradual subsidence. The spire preserved its erebt position until the vane vanished beneath the roof. In about five zetobas this beautiful structure became a mass of ruins. It was an object of beauty for miles around, and served as a kind of landmark to the traveller, go which way he would. The bishop and other inhabitants residing in houses adjacent to the cathedral had timely warning. The fabric, with the exception of portions of the north and south tran septs, is apparently uninjured. The gaze of the previous night doubtless accelerated the fall. The cathedral has been subject to many changes. The original cathedral was founded and the building completed towards the close of the 11th century. In the year 1114 it was injured by fire, and, though restored, it was entirely destroyed by a second fire in the year 1186. !Bishop Seffred is said by some historians to have built the church from its foundations. Be that as it may, it is agreP'.l that his building is the nucleus of the existing cathedral. It consisted of the nave with its single aisles, the centre arcade, with its lower tower and transept, and of the choir. Its architec ture shows the marks of many periods—the late ral towers, up to the second tier, belong to the original church ; that facing the south exhibits four elegant examples of early Norman arches ; the arches in the third tier are of the tall lancet shape. The central tower was begun by Bishop Neville in the year 1222. The spire was raised about the hear 1387. It is the central tower a n d s pi re th a t ave vanished. BRISTOL, THURSDAY. Last night one of the most violent gales for many months past swept over Bristol and its neighbour hood, from points varying little from the South. Mr. IV. C. Burder, F.R.A.S., of Clifton, gives the following description of the storm : " There had been a stiff breeze during the greater part of the day, but there was nothing amounting to a gale till about 9 a.m. Between 9 p.m. and 9 30 p.m., the mercury fell rapidly, and the wind increased, the surface current being rather to the east of south, while the lowest clouds were moving (not very rapidly) from nearly due south. The greatest force-Poi' the wind occurred from midnight till 12.30 a.m. on Feb. 21 (Thursday), when the pressure on the square foot was about from 201 b. to 251 b. This extreme force did not last many minutes, and about 1 a.m. the gale had sensibly diminished. At 4 12 a.m. there was only a moderate breeze, still about south-west. There was then a lunar halo, and the sky was covered with a cirrous haze, through which the brighter stars could be seen dimly. At 9 a.m. there was a solar halo, a mock sun, and a rainy looking sky, the mercury again beginning to fall. The following details will con vey some further information : Day and Hour.

The wires are expected to be restored to working order by this morning. On the Great Western line the passengers by the mail train from London, which leaves Bath about mid night, narrowly escaped a serious accident. On reaching the Brislington-tunnel, about three miles from Bristol, the engine got entangled in the tele graph wires, which had been blown down, and were lying across the line. The train was stopped as quickly as possible, but was not able to proceed for nearly two hours, and did not arrive at the station till about 2.30 a.m. The damage done in Bristol is very considerable, but fortunately seems to have been unaccompanied by any loss of life. The upper storey of a house occupied by Mr. Hunt, facing Bond-street, and having one side on the Upper Arcade, was carried off, and blocks of free stone weighing between 1 cwt. and 2 cwt. were hurled a distance of between 30 and 40 yards. Mr. Hunt and his family did not reside on the premises, and from the lateness of the hour no ono happened to be passing at the time. A very high stack of chimneys belonging to Cox's dining-rooms, St. Nicholas-steps, was blown down, doing considerable damage to the roof. The cooperage of Messrs. Ford and Canning, on the Butts, was much in jured. The effects of the gale were felt with equal violence in the direction of St. Philip's and Bap tist-mills, where it seems to have assumed the character of a whirlwind. In Waterloo-place, West street, the fronts of the small houses were blown into the street. A constable on duty immediately alarmed the inmates, who, although sleeping in the rooms from which the fronts had disappeared, were unaware till roused of anything unusual having occurred. The vane of St. Simon's Church was displaced by the wind and carried a distance of about 60 yards. The floating landing stage at Bristol-bridge was severed from its moorings and carried as far as St. Philip's-bridge, where a consi derable portion was broken away, and the remainder drifted still further up the river. In Clifton a fine tree in the parish churchyard was rooted up, and on the downs the destruction was very great. In fact, in all parts of the city houses were unroofed, trees felled, and other minor damages resulted from the violence of the gale. As yet but few shipping disasters in the Channel arc known to have occurred. The W. D. Sewell, American ship, reported on Wednesday as put back dismasted, was driven at the top of high water on the mud, and remained almost high and dry to yesterday morning, when, in consequence of the extraordinary rise of tide, being 10 feet more than the indicated height, she was got off and proceeded to Bristol. The rise of tide yesterday afternoon was eight feet more than the height indicated by the tide tables. The Eliza beth Emily, for Africa, drove a little, but sustained no serious injury. The Dora, from Demerara, and the Austrian brig Rodosto, came in collision, and were both slightly damaged. The Pet, from St. Michael's, also suffered from the severity of the gale. The steamer Athlete, from Liverpool for Bristol, put into Holyhead. At 5 p.m. yesterday afternoon the wind was blowing a gale from the south, and there was every appearance of the ap proach of another violent storm. the sotithWdrd.

The noble fellows in her boat were William Cornish, the master; James Cornish, hie brother ; Thomas Bray, John Bur gOyne, and Richard Tuckerman. 'rho distressed Frenchmen were clinging to their brig's topmast, which was level with the Water, and frequently covered by it. The only mode of communication Was With the boat's painter, a short rope. They were surrounded by rocks in a heavy sea, and the fishermen incurred great risk of their lives in res , cuing the brig's people. - When all eight werein the sloops boat there was much danger of her being sWamped. PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 21. We had a hurricane here from S.S.W. from about midnight until between 3 and 4 a.m. to day. It had blown hard for some hours previously froth the sathe quarter, with falls of rain, gradually increasing in strength as the night wore on. At daylight this morning it moderated, but towards noon again freshened, and now (6 p.m.) it blows a hard gala frim S.W. ; the barometer, one of Negretti and Zambri's sea-coast (latest patent), marking 29 and two-tenths, with the temperature at 52. WORCESTER, The most fearful hurricane that this part of the country was ever visited by raged last night, com mitting an incalculable amount of mischief in the destruction of timber ) the unitofin 4. of houses, blow ing down of chimneys, ,&c. N o l oss o f life is reported, but the damage to property has been general. The wind blew in the evening from S.E., and gradually increased in violence until midnight, when it appeared to have reached its height. It raged with unabated violence until 2 o'clock this morning, gradually veering round to the west. Trees are blown down by hundreds in the country round, and chimney stacks innumerable have been thrown down. NORTHAMPTON, THURSDAY. We were visited here with a dreadful storm of wind, accompanied with a heavy fall of rain, which lasted from midnight until about 3 o'clock this morning, and which most probably has swept over the whole of the midland districts. The wind howled fearfully along the streets and carried away innumerable chimneys, tiles, and slates. In Sheep-street its ravages were attended with shock ing havoc to property, and with the destruction of two lives in a house occupied by Mr. John Groom, jun., an extensive boot and shoe manufacturer. This house has been one of very long standing, and it is said that most of the floors and timbers in it were dilapidated, if not rotten. About two o'clock, when the storm raged most *violently, a large stack of chimneys came down with a terrific crash, and carried away the roof and the two floors under neath, burying Mr. Groom, his wife, their two children, and a servant maid in the ruins. Mr. and Mrs. Groom were in bed on the first floor at the time, and the children and the servant were also in bed on the fleor below, and it was nearly three hours after the accident that they were discovered lying under heaps of bricks, stone, broken timbers, bedsteads, and bedding. When taken out Mr. and Mrs. Groom were found to have been seriously, though not dangerously, injured, so also was the eldest child. They were very much cut about various parts of the body and scarcely able to move. The servant and the younger child were both dead. It would appear as if they had been instantaneously killed by the immense weight of the fallen building. BIDEFORD. A fearful storm visited this town on Wednesday evening, about 11 p.m., raging with great violence until '2 a.m. Several chimney stacks have be©n blown down, and in one instance two poor women had a miraculous escape, a stack having fallen through the roof on their bed while they were in it—Wind, south-west. Thursday, 6 p.m.—The storm commenced again at 12 a.m. to-day, and is raging now with great violence. Trees of immense girth have been broken off, and great danger done to house property. COWES, THURSDAY EVENING. A violent. gale, from the south-west, has been raging here for the last 24 hours; it has westerned a little this evening, but, if possible, increases in violence. The ships in the roadstead ride well. TILE COMMERCIAL BANK FRAUBS. Yesterday afternoon, at the Bow-street Police• court, ;John Darden, of 9, Park-village East, Regent's -park, clerk at the late Commercial Bank of London, and James Holcroft, of 109, Hatton garden, agent and wholesale boot and shoe dealer, were charged with having defrauded the directors of the said bank of three sums of money, viz., £156 65., £149 6s. 4d., and X 66 9s. 11d., together with other sums, the said Holcroft being charged as an accomplice. • The prisoner Darden was undefended ; Mr. Wontner attended for Holcroft. Both prisoners appeared about 43 years of age. Mr. Humphreys, jun., stated that he was instructed to prosecute the two prisoners, one of whom (Darden) bad admitted that, during his clerkship in the bank, he had robbed the establish ment of nearly £70,000. Durden was a ledger blerk, and it was his ditty to enter in his ledger the amount of deposits made by customers. The other prisoner was a nominal customer of the bank, having a very paltry account in reality, but which . had been swelled to an enormous amount by ficti tious entries made to his credit by Darden,. who then used Holcroft's cheques upon this imaginary account to effect the embezzlements with which the prisoners were now charged. , This fraud was effected by Durden iti the following tanner :—He received the amount of £156, for example, and entered it to the account of Messrs. Hamilton and Co, ; he at the same time entered th e same amoun t to Holcroft's aCcoUnt. 'Phis Was done Viith a large number of deposits from day t o d a y, H o l cro ft 's figures being omitted in the casting up, so that there did not appear any discrepancy in' the sum total. He *Mid now call two Or three witnesses and then apply for a remand. - Charles Arthur William Chauncey I am manager of the Henrietta-street branch of the Commercial Bank of London. The prisoner John burden, was a ledger-keeper in the service of the bank, at a salary which was raised to £l5O at Christmas, I think. He had been at Henrietta street since 1849, according to my memoranda. I don't know how long before. He kept two ledgers, ranging from Dto M. From information I had received, t went to the bank between eight and nine o'clock in the evening of Friday last, the 15th inst. The prisoner was there. The bank had closed at four o'clock. On finding him there I had him assisted into my room, and then said to him, " I understand your books are not correct ; is that so ?" or, "I understand that there is some inaccu racy in your books ; is that so ?" I saw at once from his manner that it must be so, and after some hesitation he said he would rather speak in the absence of Mr. John Slann, one of the ledger keepers, who was then in the room. Mr. Siann withdrew, and I asked him the amount of his defalcations. Ido not think I ugtd that word. I probably said, " How much is it ?" I was much agitated. He wrote on a bit of paper, which I now produce, the figures 66,992—.7-3. There is no £ s d, but there are breaks between the pounds, shillings, and pence. I asked him how he had done it? He said he had operated through two accounts, one., in his own name, long since closed, and the other that of Mr. Holcroft. I asked him how it was carried on ? He told me that he had credited sums of money which had actually been paid in to other accounts, not only to the account of the right owners of such moneys, but to the account of Mr. Holcroft also. He also said he held Mr. Holcroft's promissory notes for about £6,000, which he considered would be ultimately good, and which he was willing to make over to the bank. He also said that he pos sessed property of considerable value, and upon my asking him about the probable amount, I understood him to say that it might be of the value of about £20,000. I can hardly recollect what occurred after that except that he asked me what I was going to do, and I said I must consult the directors. I know the prisoner Holcroft. He has an account at the Commercial Bank. Cross-examined by Mr. Wontner—l first dis covered this on my return home on Friday night last about eight o'clock. That was the first time I knew anything about it. I saw Holcroft a day or two after. I think the next day. I cannot say how often I have seen him since, I have been so harassed, and have seen so many people. I did not send for him to-day or for his pass-book. I do not know how long he has had an account. To Mr. Henry —I did not make the discovery myself. I was informed of it by Mr. Slann. To Mr. Humphreys —In consequence of what Mr. Slann said to me I went with him to the bank, where I found the prisoner Durden. To Mr. Henry—l hive been acting as manager since 1849, but was appointed manager more recently. I was aware that he had had an account. I think it was closed about nine or twelve months before I entered the bank. Holcroft's account was opened before I went to the bank, that is to say, an account in the name of Holcroft and Co. To Mr. Humphreys—l saw Holcroft at the sta tion-house to-day. He said something. I wish to say that I only give the substance of what was said, not the exact words, as I do not recollect them precisely. Robert Stacey Price—l have offices at No. 5, Gresham-street, and am one of the directors of the Commercial Bank of London. It is a joint-stock bank under a deed of settlement. Mark Hunter and others are trustees. We are governed under the General Bankers Act, and have no private act of our own. On Saturday, 16th inst., I went to Durden's house, 9, Park-village East, Regent's park, in company with Mr. Winkworth. I was shown up to his bedroom, where he was sitting in a chair by the fire. He appeared very much affected at first seeing us. Mr. Winkworth told the prisoner he presumed that he (the prisoner) knew what we came about. The prisoner assented by a nod of the head. I said, "We have come to inquire what you have done with the property of the bank, and whether you have any securities ?" He said he had been speculating in buildings, and had a considerable amount of house property about Westbourne-square and the streets adjoining, of; which he could not then give us the particulars. I asked if he had the deeds of the property in his posses sion? He said, No; as they were mortgaged to various persons whose solicitors had the deeds ; but that he would send the particulars to the bank—they were mortgaged for a sum which he mentioned, between £32,000 and £33,000. We then inquired relative to any other property, and he gave us the particulars of some houses at North ampton. He gave me six promissory notes, which I now produce, signed James Holcroft, which he (Durden) endorsed in my presence. The amount of these promissory notes is £6,890 18s. ld. Three are dated Dec. 14, 1860, and are for £1,493 18s. 2d., £1,150, and £1,144 respectively. The three others are dated Jan. 31, and are for £1,027 7s. 7d., £1,035 13s. 4d., and £1,039 19s. respectively. He also gave up to me 14 cheques, 12 of which were filled up with sums of money and signed "James Holcroft," the other two signed but not otherwise filled up. None of them were dated. Mr. Humphreys—l presume they were to be used as occasion required. What is the total amount of those that are filled up ? Witness—£BBslBx. 4d. He stated nothing else, except as to other property that he had. The cheques are all signed " James Holcroft, twelve filled up with various amounts, two in blank—none dated. Thomas Dyson--I am one of the cashiers in the Commercial Bank of London. I know both pri soners. Hoicroft had an account at the bank. I have seen him write, draw cheques, and attach his signature to draw money on that account. The signature to the six promissory notes and fourteen cheques produced I think are all written by Mr. Holcroft. Mr. Humphreys—That is as far as I propose to go to-day Mr. Henry—The prisoner Durden has no solici tor. Do you (to Durden) wish to ask any of the witnesses any question ? Durden shook his head. Mr. Wontner submitted that there was no evi dence to show that Holeroft was in collusion with the other prisoner to rob the bank. The whole commercial world had been startled by the dis covery that it was possible for one of the clerks of a bank where accounts were supposed to be kept with ordinary care, to extract from their coffers upwards of £66,000, notwithstanding the periodi cal checks by which it is supposed that the directors ascertain that there is really in the bank the sum which the books would appear to demonstrate. Surely, then, if the whole commercial world and the directors of the bank themselves were so grievously startled, how was it possible that the defendant could have divined that the party with whom he was dealing could have drawn out the enormous sum of money, and that the proprietors could have known nothing a b o ut it ? To show that Holcroft had been dealing l eg itimately, and not at all collusively with the other prison er, if any argument were wanting, it would be found in the fact of his having given Burden the promissory notes, for which there could have been no occasion GLOUCESTER. The city of Gloucester being completely open to the west and south, not a hill rising between it and the Bristol Channel, felt the full severity of the gale. Besides trees thrown down all over the vale of Gloucester, up which the wind rushed with great velocity, the ships in the Berkeley Canal and Gloucester docks were damaged, and the railway station belonging to the Great Western and South Wales Companies was almost demolished. PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY, 10 A.M. This morning, at one o'clock, as the crew of a Brigham fishiug sloop, who had been to the theatre, were rowing, up Catwater to get on board their vessel, they heard cries of distress from the Batten ridge, and on reaching the spot were providentially enabled to pick off the remaining portion.of the crew of a wrecked vessel (the master and two men) belonging to the French brig Augustine, which parted her cables in the Sound at 10 o'clock last night, and went ashore immediately. Three of the cre-,v are unfortunately drowned. The three sur vivors are under medical treatment at the Admiral IVlLBride tavern. The storm commenced last night from S.S.W. It veered round about one o'clock to W.S.W., blowing strong, and is now returning to TOTAL SHIPT BECK. On the night of Saturday last, the 16th inst., in a heavy gale of wind, the brig San Spiridione, of Galaxidi, in Greece, was driven on shore in Tra more Bay, county of Waterford, where she was dis covered early in the morning with the sea breaking over her, and her crew in the rigging. The Tramore lifeboat, belonging to the National Lifeboat Insti tution, was quickly launched and every effort made by her crew to reach the vessel, but the wind and sea were too strong for them, and after persevering for some time the effort had to be given up and the boat relanded. She was then conveyed to the west ward end of the bay, and another crew, composed of Coastguardsmen and amateurs, was obtained, when she was again launched, and this time suc ceeded in getting within a few yards of the wrecked vessel, the crew of which might then have been taken into the boat if they would have jumped into the water and allowed themselves to be hauled into her by lines, bat this they would not do. The life. boat then drifted from the vessel again, and, being struck on her broadside by a very heavy surf, was upset. Fortunately she possessed the self-righting property, and immediately righted again. Three of her crew regained her. The rest, five in num ber, made for the shore, which, being supported by their lifebelts, they all reached in safety. The life boat was then again landed and replaced upon her carriage, in readiness for another effort as soon as there might appear any probability of its being suc cessfully made. Shortly after, however, the wreck suddenly broke up, and its crew were seen clinging to its various parts, amid the boiling surge. The lifeboat was then again quickly launched and rowed to the site of the broktha fragments, amid which she succeeded in saving two of the ship's crew; two others were rescued by persons from the shore who waded into the surf and threw lifebelts to them, the remainder, six in number, having unhappily perished. The coxswain of the boat, Richard Johns, a Coastguardsman, went • out in charge of the boat on every occasion, and exerted himself to the utmost in the humane attempts to save life, which unfortunately proved only in part success ful. The upsetting of this lifeboat, although she is only a small six-oared boat, is only one more illustration of the liability of all boats to upset under some circumstances. It is, however, also an illustration of the value of the self-righting pro perty, and of the importance of the crews of life boats being provided with efficient lifebelts ; had either of these provisions been absent in this case the same sad tale might have had to be related as that of the late melancholy loss at Whitby.
