Thesiger, Sir II Fitzroy Kelly, and Mr. Kno-41es, represented the ' company. This was an action (part heard yesterday) brought by the plaintiffs, the owners of 'th brig Harewood, to re cover compensation from the c,ropany for the negligence of their servants, whereby Harewood was sunk by the defendants' steam, ship - le Trident. The steamer was proceeding down tb river, on the 4th October, 1853, and when a few yaJos below the North Light she ran into the Harewood, 14.6:4 with coals, and sunk her, when all on board perisll4,4 with the exception of the master and one of the 64, 0 7, named Mason.

This we-, An action against the defendants as represen tatives of Westminster Fire-office, to recover 1,3501., the amourlof damage sustained by the plaintiff in a fire which kppened in July, 1350. The matter came before the cot cqion an issue from the Court of Chancery, and the 7riscipal question raised was whether the plaintiff ha. l .-iniplied with the condition in his policy, which st.:ted that he should in the event of any claim being made produce his books of account, and such other proper vouchers as should be reasonably required in that behalf, and that unless such books and vouchers were produced, no money should be recoverable by virtue of the policy. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. J. Brown appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Byles and Mr. Phip son for the defendants. The plaintiff was a varnish manufacturer at Cheshunt, and it was stated that his varnish was of a very superior quality, and was made by a secret process, he himself doing the principal part of the work alone, and 'frith closed doors. When the insurance-office first applied for the plaintiff's books and vouchers, his solicitor declined to produce them, as they would expose his secret ; but the evidence to-day was that the plaintiff had kept no books or vouchers except a sale book, and it was submitted that he having offered the testimony of himself and his servants upon the matter, had offered all that could be reasonably required of him. Several witnesses were called to show the amount of the plaintiff's loss by the fire. No witnesses were called for the defendants, but it was contended that the plaintiff had not complied with the above-mentioned condition in his policy, nor had he furnished such information previous to those proceedings as would justify the office in paying the amount claimed. The jury gave a verdict for the defendants. ADMIRALTY COURT. THE ERNST KIRCIC.-PRIZE. The arguments in this case, the facts of which have already been reported, were resumed and concluded. Dr. Lushington reserved his judgment. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. IN RE ELKAN LONDON. The insolvent, a boot and shoe maker, was opposed by Mr. Dowse for several creditors, and supported by Mr. Sargood. The insolvent is only 23, and had been four years in business. The point in the case is a friendly arrest, and that he had filed proper accounts. It was denied that it was a friendly arrest. A creditor in person alleged that he gave credit to the insolvent's father, and not to him. The statement was denied by the insolvent. Mr. Commissioner Murphy ordered fresh accounts, and the attendance of the insolvent's father. IX RB CHABLIS MATTHIAS GUNNEL. The case of the insolvent, a retired clerk in the Reuse of Commons, was again brought before the court. Mr. Nichols appeared for the provisional assignee, and Mr. Sargood for the insolvent. After a long discussion, Mr. Commissioner Murphy intimated that he would take the opinion of his learned colleague, and, if neces sary, the case could be argued before a full court. His Honour announced that it was understood that it would not be long before the Chief Commissioner would be able to resume his duties. CRNTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—Dec. 1. lsknael Noyes, 19, clerk, a gentlemanly-looking youth, was indicted for stealing two gold watches and other goods, valued at 241., the property of Thomas Bale. Mr. Parry and Mr. Thompson prosecuted, arid Mr. Ballantine defended. _ _ ..._.........__ _________. The case, which came on late in the day, and lasted several hours, was one of the most remarkable ones that perhaps ever came before any court. Th'e prisoner, who hears a very high character, has been for four years clerk to Mr. Hewett, carrier, of the Old Bailey, and his duty was to receive goods sent to the office to be for warded again from thence to their place of direction. Upon the 25th of October a box containing two gold watches, one silver one, and some jewellery were sent from Messes. Schufer, of Old Jewry Chambers, City, to Messrs. Hewett and Co., to be sent by them on to Mr. Bale, the prosecutor, a watchmaker, of Vine-street, Bristol. The watches, which were placed in a small pasteboard box, secured with string, and bearino. Messrs Schufer's seal, were delivered to the prisoner an d' placed by him in the counting-house, where, according to the testimony of the carrier and his servants, it appeared they lay until the next day, when they were sent on to the place they were directed to, being whilst at Mr. Hewett's in the care of the prisoner, who had the charge of the counting-house and kept the key. The parcel, according to the testimony of Mr. Bale, did not reach him until the 28th, he expecting it upon the 29th. When he (Mr. Bale) opened the box he found it contained, in stead of the property mentioned, some small pieces of brick. He (Mr. Bale) mentioned the matter to some friend at Bristol, and it was arranged that they should come to town, which they did, and went to Hewett's and made him acquainted with the circumstance. Sus picion instantly fell upon the prisoner, and Mr. Bale then went into the yard of Mr. Hewett, and, after look ing about some short time, produced a brick partly broken, and, most remarkable to state, one of the many small pieces of brick with which the box had been filled so accurately fitted into the large piece that it left no doubt at all that it had been broken from it. There was but one other piece of brick in Mr. Hewett's yard, and that differed materially in appearance from the piece Mr. Bale alleged that he picked up—a very cleanly whitewashed piece. The prisoner, who denied all knowledge of the matter, and strongly protested his innocence, was finally given in charge. He boxes and lodgings were searched, but nothing found on the first search to criminate him. After, however, he he had been in custody some time, Mr. Bale and the detective officer Moss again went to his lodgings add researched the boxes, Mr. Bale taking a part in the search, and the officer's attention was called to a piece of paper which was found in one corner of prisoner's box, and which tallied in quality with some found by Mr. Bale inside of the box when it arrived at Bristol, and exactly fitted and made perfect a small portion which was missing. This evidence being deemed con clusive the prisoner was sent for trial. Mr. Bale, who gave his evidence this day in a very unsatisfactory way, so much so that he was several times rebuked by the Recorder, made several additions to the evidence he had given before the magistrates, all tending to strengthen the case against the prisoner— most particularly prevaricating as to whether any one in the shop had seen him open the box, as he alleged, and finding the bricks, leaving it to be inferred that his shopman bad. He bad likewise cut the strings sur rounding the box, and cut the original seal of Mr. Schafer, which had made the cord fast to the lid of the box, away from it. During the cross-examination to which Mr. Ballantine subjected him he prevaricated, and answered the ques tions in so evasive a manner that the court several times rebuked him. He admitted that he bad often Unified himself for his friends in bankruptcies, where they 41 14 been creditors, and succeeded in obtaining sums of money and property which would otherwise have been lost. Mr. Ballantine, in a powerful address to the jury, in' inmate./ that the whole charge had been for some pur pose trumped up, and arranged by the prosecutor. The Recorder, in summing up, said the case had taken a more singular turn than any one he had ever heard of, and the evidence about the pieces of paper and bricks, if true, seemed like a special interposition of Providence to detect the guilty, and was almost miraculous. His lord ship then went through the case, severely condemning the way Mr. Bale had given the evidence. The jury instantly acquitted the prisoner. Recorder—And you will leave this court without a stain upon your character. I think Mr. Bale ought to give security for his appea rance elsewhere. However, I shall leave Mr. Hewett to make inquiries into the matter, and order all the pieces of brick and other things to be impounded. The solicitor for the prosecution said he made inquiries an-1 found that prisoner bore a very high character. Prosecutor — The strings round the box had been cut befo. e it arrived. Rut order—That is the first time you have said that. Thu cue then ended. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL.—Mr. Joseph. Jervis Mullein, of 24, Fore-street, Cripplegate, appeared before Alderman Challis, in discharge of his bail, to answer the char g e of causing an explosion of gunpowder in a house, No. 25. Fore -street. It will be recollected that the defendant was brought before the sitting magistrate on Monday Past, wh en it appeare d th a t he was seen on the top of his own Mule immediately alter the explosion took place, and from that circumstance suspicion was attached to him, and he was taken into custody. Miss Elizabeth Winkwortb, Mr. Thomas Greville, Mr. J. L. Millions, and Mr. Edward Martin, were ex amined, after which Alderman Challis said he was perfectly convinced of the defendant's complete innocence, and dismissed the case. SOUTHWAP°H•—One of the relieving officers of St. Olave's, Southwark, attended before Mr. Combo, with a young Irishwoman, with an infant in her arms, for his advice. - lie said that the woman became chargeable to their parish, and after being examined as to her place of settlement; she was sent to Ireland. She, however, re turned with her infant to Saint Olave's Workhouse a few days ago, when she was taken before the guardians, who now wished for his worship's advice. She was liable to be punished for returning, but the guardians did not wish her to be, if her statement was true. She stated that when she arrived at Cork she was admittpd in the Cork Union, and one of the relieving officers came out of the room where the guardians were sitting, and told her they would keep her but not her English bastard. She remained in the workhouse nearly a fort night, when she was put on board a vessel, and her passage paid back to England. A gentleman who cause out of the board room did that, but she did not know who he was. Ho gave her no money. She believed she was born in Cork, but she had been in England since three years old, and knew nothing of Ireland. Mr. Comber told the relieving officer that he had better take her before the guardians again, and investi gate the statements closely. If what she said was true she and her infant had been treated shamefully, and the Poor Law authorities ought to ,be acquainted with the facts. LAMBETH.—Mr. Dockree, the proprietor of the Bee ' hive Tavern, Carter-street, Walworth, was charged with keeping his house open on the night of Sunday, the 19th ult. It appearod that about half-past ten p.m. on Sunday, Sergeant Coppey entered Mr. D ockree's house, having pre viously heard the jinking of money, and found a young man and woman at the front of the bar, with a glass of gin and water before them. In the parlour he found Mr. Dockree and four gentlemen, one of whom defendant said was his brother, the second his nephew, and the other twe his friends. Mr. Dockree did not deny any part of the evidence except the jinking of money, and that he believed to be untrue, as there was no person in the house at the time from whom money would have been taken. The per sons mentioned by the officer as being in front of the bar when he entered, were a young woman, a friend and acquaintance of his daughter, and her sweetheart, and they were at the time in the act of bidding her good night, when Coppey entered. Those in the parlours were his brother, his nephew, and two friends, and he (Mr. Dockree) should be glad to know from his worship whether ho was precluded from entertaining his friends and relations in his parlour after his door was closed and customers cleared away. Mr. Norton —Certainly not ; but you have not proved that they were all friends, and as a matter of caution, I should not recommend you to entertain your friends in a public room, as it will place you under the onus of showing that they are your friends and relations, and not customers. Mr. Dockree—l am under a strong impression that the hour was not so late as that sworn to by the ser geant. Coppey—l did not leave the station house until ten o'clock, and I had to walk nearly a mile to your house. The sergeant informed the magistrate that the defend ant had been previously summoned. Mr. Dockree (who exhibited some warmth at the ser geant's remark) admitted that he had been summoned, through the carlessness of a servant, and his worship on that occasion allowed him to put half a sovereign in he poor-box, and he had no objection to do so again. Mr. Norton remarked that it must be 11. now, and ;he money being paid, the case was dismissed. THAMES.—Augustus Tilby was charged with em bezzling the sum of 821. which he had received on ac count of the United Steam Towing Company. Mr. Thomas Petley, the manager of the company, said that the prisoner had been in their service as col lecting clerk at a salary of 255. per week. His duty was to collect money and pay it over to the manager every evening. On Wednesday evening he questioned the prisoner about a debt of 101. ls. owing by the firm Windle and Co., and asked if there were any other sums not collected, and the prisoner made some excuses. He said he would accompany the prisoner to Windle's house on Thursday morning, and on that day they proceeded towards the offices of the firm. On reaching the door the prisoner said, " Shall you or I go in ?" Witness said, "We will both go in." The prisoner then said, " It's no use, I have received the money." Witness ex pressed great surprise at this, and said, " Let's go to Partridge's and collect that debt." The prisoner said, " I have received that too." Witness on hearing this compelled the prisoner to return with him to the com pany's office, and he there admitted defalcations to the amount of 821. Mr. F. Pelham, for {the prisoner, felt that he could not resist a remand, and tendered bail. Mr. Ingham said he could not accept of bail, and re. manded the prisoner for a week. JERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A CAPTAIN OF A VESSEL. An inquest, which was opened on Monday at Kings town, by Mr. Harty, one of the county coroners, on the body of Thomas Davis, a Krooman sailor, belonging to the barque Lottie Sleigh, of Glasgow, did not terminate till an advanced hour yesterday evening. The barque, as has been announced, was picked up in a disabled state, having lost her rudder, and was taken in tow by one of our channel steamers and brought to moorings in Kingstown harbour. It appears that during the passage homeward of the barque front the coast of Africa some sickness occurred on board amongst the crew, which included a Lumber of Krooman, who were engaged to assist in working the vessel. It could be gathered from the evidence that the Kroovnen, who are natives of a hot country, and ill- prepared for the asperity of a northern climate, began to suffer severely from cold as the ship approached these latitudes. Besides, the vessel encountered severe wea ther, and whilst off the western islands carried awi. her rudder. This serious accident protracted the leugtt. of the voyage, and of course increased the hardships and suffering of the crew. Six of the white sailors got scurvy, two of them died at sea, and two more only sur vived a brief time after the vessel arrived in Kingstown. The Krooman Thomas Davis, on whose body this in quest was held, was stated in evidence to have com plained of the cold, and to have been seized with seiverings and pains in the feet. Ho subsequently be came delirous, and expired on Friday morning. Evidence was gone into at great length, and a num ber of witnesses were examined with a view of ascertain ing the description of treatment given to the crew, and especially to the Kroomen on board, during the passage homeward. It transpired that these unfortunate natives of a torrid climate were shipped on board the barque at the Palmas Islands, in the height of summer. They had no clothing on coming on board save the usual piece of cloth round the loins, which constitutes the garb of these poor creatures, who seem to have endured the extreme of misery from cold when the ship began to encounter cold and stormy weather. They slept on the deck in the warm latitudes, and did not complain so long as their rations of rice were duly served out to them ; but the rice running short they got bread rations instead. They were put to sleep on some sails spread upon oil casks in the hold, and the entire body of Kroo men are admitted to have been constantly complaining of cold and ill-treatment, though it was sworn that clothes were given them by the captain; After a long investigation, which did not conclude till yesterday even ing, the jury, after consultation, returned as their ver dict—" That the death of the deceased Thomas Davis, was caused by exposure te cold and hardship, permitted by the inhumanity and neglect of the commander (Pier man) and of his mate, second in command." The cap tain and mate were committed for trial on the coroner's warrant.—Freeman's Journal.

This matter was mentioned again yesterday morn: ag before the Lord Chancellor, leave being given on the last day of the sittings in term. The Solicitor-General reminded his lordship that le, on the part of Mr. George Augustus Chichester, lad directed his lordship's attention to certain medical certi ficates on the state of that gentleman's health, and among others to that of Sir Benjamin Brodie.. The Lord Chancellor observed that he had seer% no thing of these certificates as yet. The Solicitor-General said they were annexed to the petition, and he would hand in a copy of them. The certificates of a Mr. Tasker, of Derby ; of Mr. Cutler, of New Burlington-street ; and of Dr. Brodie, were then placeel in his lordship's bands. Mr. Tacker and Mr. Cutler certified that Mr. Chichester was suf fering from nervous excitement and debility, and that being unable to walk, he required carriage exercise for the restoration of his health, which. would, of course, be much endangered by further confinement. The certifi cate of Sir B. Brodie was in these words :—Having been yesterday requested to visit Mr. Chichester in the Queen's Bench Prison I found him labouring under great physical as well as moral depression, complicated with a very distressing and painful local ailment. As far as I can form an opinion of his case at a single in terview with him, he is in that state in which his health would probably become seriously affected by a continued confinement in prison. "N ov. 24." "BENJADLIN BRODIE. The Solicitor-General then read the petition of Mr.G. A. Chichester, late of Duke-street, St. James's, which set forth—" That by an order made in this cause on the 20th of November instant, after stating that the Lord Chancellor being satisfied that your petitioner did endea vour to induce the plaintiff, Clara Thornhill, to contract a marriage with him without the sanction of the Court, and that he did endeavour clandestinely to remove herfrom the custody of her guardian, it was ordered that for that contempt of court the prisoner 'be committed to the Queen's Prison. That in pursuance of such order your petitioner was removed to and has ever since been con fined in the Queen's Prison. That the acts referred to in the said order were done under the belief that the said Clara Thornhill was attached to your petitioner, and without any intention to commit a contempt of this honourable Court, but your petitioner is desirous of hereby expressing his contrition and regret for such contempt, and acknowledging his full and most humble submission •to your lordship's order. That your peti tioner is willing to undertake not to hold any further communication with the said Clara Thornhill without the sanction of your lordship, and to submit to be en joined against holding any such communications in such manner and on such terms as your lordship shall think fit. And your petitioner hereby submits and is ready to pay the costs of his contempt, and to do all other such acts as your lordship shall deem necessary to clear such contempt. That your petitioner has for some time past been suffering from great nervous excitement and debi lity, and has been constantly under the medical care of Mr. Tasker, of Melbourne, Derby, and of Mr. Edward Cutler, of 15, New Burlington-street, and his health has become materially worse since his confinement. That on the 24th day of November inst. your petitioner consulted Sir Benjamin Brodie and the said Mr. Cutler, and was visited by them in the Queen's Prison, and they then expressed their opinion, and have since certified, that your petitioner was labouring under great physical depression, and that his health would be seriously affected by a continued confinement. Your petitioner, therefore, humbly prays your lordship that, under the circumstances aforesaid, and on his giving such undertaking or security as to your lordship shall seem fit, he may be discharged out of the custody of the keeper of the Queen's Prison as to his contempt in this cause, or that your lordship will be pleased to make such further written order as to your lordship shall seem fit." The Solicitor-General observed that the proof of the allegation of Mr. Chichester, that he believed Miss Thornhill to be attached to him, was to be found in the letters which had been before his lordship on a former occasion. With respect to the assertion that Mr. Chi chester was in embarrassed circumstances, he was in structed to say that the father of that gentleman de clared it to be untrue, for on hearing of the attachment subsisting between his son and Miss Thornhill he had taken measures, as he had before intended, for the pay ment of his creditors. The father of Mr. Chichester had also instructed him to say that he was most willing to add his undertaking, and to give his security, for the performance of the obligations Mr. Chichester undertook by his petition. Under these circumstances, it was hoped that, as the Court bad vindicated its undoubted authority by the imprisonment of Mr. Chichester, it would now, considering that it had done all that the justice of the case required, consent to his immediate discharge. As to the costs of the proceedings, the peti tioner was of course bound and ready to pay them, but he could not do so because he had not yet received any account of their amount. Mr. Rowcliffe was also for the petitioner. Mr. Bayly aid Mr. Renshaw, for the guardians, said that the paper, the petition, and the certificates had not beet placed in their hands till yesterday, and they had, therefore, no opportunity of making inquiries or considering the nature or extent of the undertakings and security that would be sufficient. They thought they ought to have tine for that purpose before the petition was disposed of. His Lordship was of opinion that time must be given to the guardians to make such suggestions as they con sidered necessary on the petition. With respect to the letters alluded to by the Solicitor-General, as in the pos session of Mr. Chichester, they must be delivered up. The Solicitor-General—To the young lady ? His Lordship—They must be delivered up to the young lady's guardians, accompanied with an affidavit from Mr. Chichester that he has no other letters from Miss Thornhill except those so delivered. Mr. Bayly believed the guardians would come to the conclusion that no mere undertaking on the part of Mr. Chichester himself could be satisfactory. His Lordship—Well, at all events, let the petition stand over till Tuesday next, that the guardians may have an opportunity of considering. The Solicitor-General reminded his lordship that Mr. Chichester had been already nearly a fortnight in con finement, and the delay would operate most injuriously. His Lordship—Let the matter stand for - Tuesday morning. ay ' SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. PROGRAMME OF WOLVERHAMPTON AUTUMN RACES. TUESDAY, DEC. 5.

WAKEFIELD—DEc. 1 The arrivals of grain this week are only to a moderate extent. Wheat is held firmly at last Friday's prices, but millers are unwilling buyers except at a reduction, cense quentls the business passing is limited. Barley is per qr. cheaper.

BRISTOL SUGAR-DEC. 1. The market has been rather quiet this week, owing to the continued unwillingness of holders to bring forward their stocks at present quotations. In foreign the only transac tion reported is a cargo of 3,000 boxes yellow Havannahe on the spot at 35s 6d per cwt. The chief feature this week is the strong impression that Government intend proposing a further advance in the duties on the meeting of Parlia ment. Refiners' produce meets with a steady demand, and prices are well supported. COAL MARK] Prices of Coal por ton at t' `.—DEe. 1. close of the market. Wallsond, &c. s. Buddlo W.
