PI , :xlto 4 -4, XitTLO I 4 ha SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. SECONDARIES.'--(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) OU TLAWItY.-CHAFFER: V. SIDI& This was an inquiry under a writ of special capias utligatuto, directed to the Sheriffs of London to inquire of what goods and chattels, lands and tenements, the de fendant Henry Jadis, formerly of Bryanstone-square, in the county of Middlesex, was possessed within the baili wick of the Sheriffs on London, on the 20th of June last. Mr. Kell appeared for the plaintiff and Mr. Adolphus for the defendant, Mr. KELL stated the case, and said that the inquiry was under proa: eding in outlawry, and he should be able to prove that the defendant, who had formerly been a clerk under the Board of Control of the East India Company, was entitled to a pension from the East India Company of 2501. per annum. Mr. Edward Jenkins, of the Accountant's office, at the,East India House, said that the name of Henry Jadie appeared on the pension roll of the East India Com pany as a clerk of the Boatel of Control, and the pen sion war, granted by virtue et' a Queen's warrant. He did not pay the money, but in tha ordinary course sent the necessary warrant to the treasurer to pay, and had done so up to Chri'ema 3 last. He did not know whether the pension was granted for life or not; but the instruc tions ho received in cases of pensions were general, and be should continue to direct the payment until the death of the person entitled to the pension was reported, or the instructions were rescinded. Mr. ADOLPHUS contended that the original warrant and - other documents, under vrhiela the papncnts were made, ought to be produced, and in the next place that a pension was not goods and chattels, lands or tene ments, end was not subject to attachment any more than the helf-pay of an offf:er could be seized by assignees, and this latter point was clearly defined by the Insolvent Act. The Learned UNDER SHERIFF took a note of the objections, but heel that the evidence of payments in the ordinary course was sufficient, and as to the ques tion whether the pension could be attached, that must be -settled between the parties. He therefore directed the jury to find that the defendant was, on the 21,3 of June las', and now is entitled to a pention of 2501, per annum, and the jury returned a verdict to that effect.

The committee of the Birkenhead Dock Trust have completed their report, addressed to the bond holders, by whom they were appointed at the close of November last, for the purpose of inquiring into the present state and condition of their affairs, and the best means for raising the funds necessary to complete the works, and to confer with a committee to be ap pointed by the Dock Company thereon. The report of the committee recommends the bondholders to assent to the Bill of the Dock Company, leaving open the question as to the price of the South Reserve. The terms intended to be carried into effect by the Dock Company's Bill are as follows :-1. Company to aid, by a guarantee on their property at Birkenhead, in raising 250,000/. towards the completion of the outer works and excavations of the great float. 2. Com pany to aid, in like manner, in raising 70,000/. for building the walls, not yet contracted for, around the great float ; but all moneys received from the frontagers for the purchase of these walls to be applied in re pa3 ing the advance. 3. Company to purchase South Reserve at 130,0001., to be applied in com pletion of th e ou t er works 4 . No ships to use any docks to be constr uc t e d on the South Reserve with out .5. paying r a t es t o th e trustee! Bonds to be issued within two y ears f or the arrears ofiuter ß est ds on existing bonds, and t o b e called Interest 6. The future nett revenues cf th e t rust to be applied ed . e apPs; as follows :-1. The paying inter es t and arrears of interest on the existing Preference B on d s . paying interest and arrears of interest on the money to he guaranteed by the company, and the interest of such arrears. 3. In paying the interest and arrears of interest on the Interest Bends. 4. In paying in terest and arrears of interest up' n all the existing bonds (except the Preference Bonds), according to Itheir present priorities. 5. In paying the principal upon the varions classes of bonds, in the same order in which the interest is to be paid. 7. The Dock Company to be represented in the general board cf the trust by the addition of six directors or share holders who are not bondholders. 8. The entire works to be executed under the direction of a committee of eight trustees, to consist of three trustees selected by the bondholders, three by the company, one by the Birkenhead commissioners, and one by the Wallasey commissioners. 9. The rates not to be reduced without the consent of four of the bondholders' trustees. 10. The trustees and committee to meet where they shall from time to time determine. 11. A public auditor to be ap pointed by the Board of Trade, and the accounts to be laid annually before Parliament. The general result of the inquiries of the com mittee was that there was no hopes of any dividend ever being paid upon the bonds, unless additional capital could be raised for completing the works in their entirety, for Vf hi eh purpose they proposed to apply to Parliament for powers to raise the neces sary capital, and give it a preferential dividend over previou3 capital, and also to place the control of the works more in the hands of the bondholders. A meeting of the bondholders was held yesterday at the London Tavern, Baron de Goldsmid in the chair, when the report was presented and adopted. After a slight discussion, in which Mr. Laird and Mr. Ellice, two of the trustees, maintained that ar rangements were in progress by which the property would be made available to the expenditure of an ad ditional capital not exceeding 130,0001., and the for mer gentleman promised shortly to publish a full reply to the report of the committee, a vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings. THE ARM Y. DIET OF MILITARY PRISONERS. The military authorities, we believe, have lately had this subject under investigation, and the Secre tary-at-War, after having had under his consideration the reports from the governors and medical officers of the several military prisons at home in regard to the effect of the reduced diet for prisoners which has been in operation since the Ist of August last, has come to the conclusion that generally it is sufficient, both in quantity and quality, to maintain the prisoners in health, to enable them to go through the discipline of the prison, and to return to their corps at the termi nation of their imprisonment fit for duty. This diet, which is as follows— _ _ _ Full Diet. Re hr.:cc] Dint. Breakfast Oatmeal Bcz. or 21b. Jz. 8 z. or 21b.2cz of Stirabout. of Stirabout. Dinner—lndian meal 9oz. or 21h. Goz. 66. z. or 11b. 9i z. 3apper—Brca3 51b. 41b. 3 is to be considered as the sole diet for use in the mili tary prisons at home for the future, and the articles which are enumerated at page 53 of the prison rules as substitutes for the regular diet are to be discon :inued, except as articles of sick diet, or to he used in cases of emergency, or on such special occasions as the medical officer may consider it necessary to prescrilv them under the powers vested in him by the 721 article of the prison rules. A., however, in some cases it May be necessary to give a greater amount of food than that included in the above scale for men after lengthened imprison ment, the governors of the various prisons have been informed that the following scale may be adopted for prisoners after 84 days . confinement, should the medical officer consider it necessary, but not other- wise :-- Full Diet, reduced Diet. Brellifast—O,Oraell ... 10 z. Bz. DinLer—lndian Meal ... 12oz. 9oz. Supper—Bread loz. B , z. and also that the bread and =ter diet to which pri • sOners in confinement for a prison offence may be subjected, and hich is now limited to three days, may, at the discretion of the visitors, be extended to the first seven of the 28 days which they are em powered to award, but a special statement should be made, in the medical officers' quarterly report, of the number of cases in which the present limit of three days is exceeded. The officers in charge have been directed to com municate these instructions to the medical officer of eac'a prison, and to enjoin the strictest vigilance on his part in preventing any injury to the health of the prisoners, but at the same time to exercise the greatest discretion in prescribing any extra diet for prisoners which may not be absolutely necessary. CONVICT GUARDS. The following instructions have b!en issued to tl'e staff•oft=icers of pensioners on this subject : " War-office, Dec. 27, 1850. " Sir,—l am directed to transmit the conditions of service for convict guards proceeding to Australia and Yan Diemen's Land in the ensuring year ; and to re quest that you will, immediately after your next pay ments, recommend for this service any number not exceeding six of the most eligible of the pensioners in your district who may wish to become candidates for that duty ; attending carefully to the instructions previously given you as to the qualifications required for this duty and the mode of recommending them. "Much inconvenience having ben experienced by private applications and inquiries from pensioners to whom the nature of the conditions do not appear to have been sufficiently explained, lam directed to request that you will be particularly careful to read and explain these conditions to them at your pay ments, and also to hang up a copy in your office that they may be perused by them at that time. Should no candidates offer on this occasion you can recommend the required number at any other period in the course of the year, but you must in the meantime report the circumstance of no candidates being at present available. " The candidates must distinctly understand that it is quite uncertain when they will be wanted, as oppor tunities for forwarding them depend entirely on the number of convicts sent out in the course of the year; but none are likely to be required earlier than March next, and the year will probably have passed before the whole are called for. " As the men appointed to this service will not re ceive enrolment money, they will not be required to refund any portion of the bounty money which may have been paid to them ; but it is expedient to avoid enrolling them when you are in expectation of their services being wanted for this purpose unless you cannot make up the required number for your dis trict otherwise. " Should any of these candidates die or remove to another district, or alter their intention of going cut, it is requested that you will immediately communi cate the circumstance to this office in order that the necessary alteration may be made in the list. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient ser vant, " L. SULIVAN." MOROCCO. With the announcement of the appointment of a Jewish gentleman, as vice-consul of Fraece at Tetuan, we have received the following information concerning the Jews of that city. The population of Tetuan, amounting to about 60,000 souls, numbers among them 20,000 Jews. The Jews, Christians, and foreign consuls inhabit a quarter of the city called El Melah (the Jewry). Every evening, as also on Saturdays and feast-days, the gates of that quarter are closed, the guardians thereof being Mussulmans. The situation of our co-religionists is a pitiable one, and perhaps in no country are they so enslaved. They are obliged to turnish gratuitously all that the Pacha requires for his household; and God knows to what an extent these wants are sometimes carried. They are obliged to draw off their shoes in passing before a mosque, a marabout, and even when they enter the court of justice, called Mechouar. The community have a chief named by the Pacha, and two rabbies nominated by themselves. The first rabbi is R. Isaac Renoualed, and the second R. Isaac Nahou. The chief is Mr. T. Parienti. The rabbies have a high repu tation for their science, their piety, and their general good conduct. The Jewish quarter is dirty, but the houses of the wealthy inhabitants are very pretty and well furnished. Each family has a fountain of water for its own use. There are in Tetuan fifteen synagogues, the greatest of which bears the name of " Synagogue Nahou," from the name of the late chief rabbi, its founder. The commu nity have no public schools, the Government not having granted the requisite authority to establish them. There is, however, among them a great desire for instruction; indeed, their youth are much distinguished for intelli gence. There are a great many merchants among the Jews who are highly esteemed in the country, and who have commercial relations with Gibraltar, London, and Oran. With the exception of the English vice -consul, who is a Christian, all the European powers here selected their representatives from among them. The Pacha, who was formerly ambassador at Paris, is a very good man, and would doubtless ameliorate considerably the condi tion of our co-religionists did the laws and customs of the empire permit him. It is, however, to be hoped that the new French vice. consul will, by his influence and his perfect acquaintance with the manners and customs of the Moors, be enabled in a great measure to improve the condition of the Israelites of Tetuan.—Jewish Chronicle.

Then we find that his son John, who bore the Christian name of his father, succeeded him on January 1, 1796, and died in the year 1838, in which time he hurled 6,918 souls, in 42 years; and upon his decease the churchwardens for the time being took the matter into consideration whether the widow should hold the office for the benefit of herself and family, and it was agreed by th em that it should be so ; and by the aid of x su to c n cee t d o t t o hi t s he pe o r r o e d e : death up to the 23d of she d r ,h s f o ar n so sm, whotcarriedhoutewd l tlent of fed her c u e cr b u t hpu u ast l bti occupation a do t r e s I s ) e • November last, she had buried, in 12 years, 2,8C3.

We are requested to state, that the United States' mail steam-ship Pacific is not now refitting with new boilers at New York. We may state, that that state ment originated from the fact that the Pacific, after her arrival out, refitted her boilers with a consider able number of new tubes. Her boilers, as many of our readers are aware, are on the tubular principle ; and the use of anthracite coal usually renders such replacements constantly necessary to a greater or less extent. Whilst, therefore, the report in question is not altogether without foundation, for of course in a tubular boiler its tubes are the essential feature, it would be unjuet to deduce from that fact that the Pacific, since her launch, has become unseaworthy. So far from such being the case, we are informed, on good authority, that since her first departure from New York up to the present period, notwithstanding abun dant rumours to the contrary, her cargo has never yet been damaged on either her outward or inward voyages, or her hull or machinery in any way injured • and we believe that in regard to the other ships Of the line a similar report may be made, unless in some few exceptional cases, arising from leaks in pipes, &c. The Pacific, it is understood, is now undergoing im portant alterations at New York, in order to enable her to carry a logger number of pssaengers during the period of the Exposition ; and it is intended that suc cessively q;clt of the other members of the fleet will undergo similar improvements. Under the existing arrangements of the steam-ships the lower cabins oc- cupy a large p:,rtion of space which might be much mere ulefully employed by another arrangement of the stat-rocms, and it has been determined that altera tions to effect this improvement shall be made in all the vessels of the fleet. Our readers are aware that it is entirely unfounded that the Pacific was stated in our columns to have been " withdrawn from service" for the esent " in order that she might undergo extensive repairs ;" and we may observe, that we regard it as an ungenerous act to found upon such a statement a violent attack upon the whole of the steamers of the service to which she belongs. We think that full personal information that such was the fact ought at least to have been obtained or possessed by a writer; and we deprecate strongly those exhibitions of par tisan spirit, on either side, which are so constantly occurring in a portion of the metropolitan press more especially. We believe that no man of any mecha nical knowledge acquainted with the principle of the Pacific's boilers would understand that she already required new boilers entirely. It would be impossible for a set of boilers such as those on board the Pacific to be rendered unserviceable during a period of only , four or five months, unless, perhaps, some great acci dent occurred, which every one knows has not in this instance happened ; and we regard it, therefore, as simply an absurdity fur any man possessed of the slightest knowledge of the sulject to understand, from any announcement vthich has appeared in these columns, that the Pacific was in the deplorable state depicted by a contemporary. —Liverpool Albion.

"No!" said the lad, in a surly tone. "Do you go to any day school ?" "No," was again the reply. "Do you go to the Sunday school, then?" "No," continued the boy. "Do you ever go to a place of worship ?" The form of the negative was used for the fourth time. "Do you know what an oath is?" "No." " What becomes of people who tell lies?" After some hesitation, Gilbert said, "They go to t' oud lad." "And what do you mean by 't' oud lad?' " For a while the lad was silent, but ultimately, upon the question being repeated, said, "I don't know." It is needless to say that the evidence of such a witness was deemed inadmissible.— Sheffield Times. LAW INTELLIGENCE; COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Jan. 9. (Before Mr. Commissioner FANF.) IN RE E. HERONS. . The bankrupt was — a pilnolcri;:maker, in John street, Tottenham-court-road, and also followed the pursuit of a furniture-broker's assistant. This was an audit meeting. Mr. BICKNELL, solicitor to the assignees, wished to have the opinion cf the Court on the point of a crimi nal prosecution being instituted against the bankrupt at the expense of his estate. The proceedings lying before his Honour would show the fraudulent conduct of the bankrupt. The CommissioNEft—l am quite willing that the bankrupt should be prosecuted, provided the assignees are desirous that he should be. The true interest of creditors, in the long run, is to prosecute in cases of fraud by a bankrupt, although the dividend may be reduced by•the costs of prosecution. There is a pro vision in the Bankruptcy Consolidation Act giving power to the Court to direct the expenses of a prose cution to be paid out of a particular fund. In this case there is no such fund at my disposal. What may be the amount of the bankrupt's deb►s and assets ? Mr. CANNAN (official assignee)-- . —The debts proved are about 1,0001. or 1,200/.; the assets have rea lised 2961. The COMMISSIONER—What say the creditors to the prosecution Mr. BICKNELL—There is one present, a creditor for 1001., who is quite willing that a prosecution should be instituted. _ _ The COMMISSIONEU—The best policy, in the long run, is, I repeat, for creditors to prosecute in cases of this kind. If they will not help themselves, the power of this Court is limited. I suppose there will be 2001. in hand wherewith to defray the expenses of a prosecution. A Creditor—And a verdict was yesterday obtained in the County Court, by which some property that had been smuggled away by the bankrupt's means was recovered. The COMMISSIONER—Is the bankrupt to be found? Mr. BICKNELL—We have traces of women who have been with him, and we believe hi 3 whereabouts may he ascertained. _ _ The Creditor—The expenditure of a five-pound rote will procure his apprehension. Mr. CANNAN, who was partially inaudible, informed the Cyurt that a bock hal been found on the premises of they bankrupt that belonged to one of the offices of the Secretary of State. Upon being examined, there was found within it a notice that a reward of 201. would be paid to any one who should return it to the Secretary of State. After an observation had been made that there could be little doubt but the Secretary of State would assist in a prosecution, The Learned COMMISSIONER said he should sanction a prosecution at the cost of the estate. (Before Mr. Commissioner EvaNs.) IN RE 11. SNELLING. The bankrupt was a grocer at Brighton. His debts are 1,5001., his assets about 2001. Mr. Duncan opposed, Mr. Lawrance supported the application for the certificate. It appeared from the examination of the bankrupt that he had long been in difficulties, and the Court held that he had not been warranted in carrying on so long as he bad without keeping accounts that would vouch for the truth of his statements respect ing property, The certificate (second class) would be suspended one year, and protection withheld for the present. Mr. DUNCAN asked for a certificate from the Court, admitting a creditor who had proved his debt to be put in the position of a judgment creditor. Mr. LAWRINCE objected on the ground that the bankrupt had not heen guilty of any of the penal offences specified in the Bankruptcy Consolidation Acts. His HONOUR Mid it appeared to him that he ought to grant the certificate asked. As, however, it had been stated that three of his brother Commissioners entertained a different opinion, he should reserve his decision. IN RE It. DRYER. The bankrupt was a confectioner at Cornbill. It appeared that, having commenced with a capital of about 6001., his debts are now 6,500/., and his assets about 5,5001. The bankrupt passed his examination without op position. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Jan. 9. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant-Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) INDECENT ASSAULTS IN THE PARK.— W. Sharp, a respectably dressed old man, was indicted, charged with having committed an indecent assault upon one Henry Whay man. Mr. Parry appeared for the defendant. The prosecutor, who is a young man about 26 years of age, stated the particulars of the case, which are of too disgusting a nature for publication. The offence was alleged to have been committed in Hyde-park, near the Albert-gate. The prosecutor gave his evidence in so unsatis factory a manner that The Learned JUDGE, at the conclusion of his exa minatioa in chief, said he did not think it necessary that the case should go on any further, inasmuch as that it was manifest that no jury could place sufficient reliance on the statements of such a fellow as the man in the box to convict upon it. Mr. PARRY, on behalf of the defendant, said, he felt it necessary to put a few questions to the prose • cutor in order to show who and what he really was, and from which it would be found that he was one of the most abandoned and disgusting fellows who are prowling about London. In the first place, however, he would state that the defendant was a highly respect able man, and had been a householder in the parish of Marylebone for upwards of 20 years. The prosecutor then, in his cross-examination, said that he had made a charge similar to the present against other persons upon former occasions, and that he had also been convicted of felony. A policeman of the B division, of the name of Wright, next stated that he had for some time known the prosecutor as a constantlrequenter of the parks, and that he had been convicted of felony at the Central Criminal Court. The Learned JUDGE desired Wright not to lose sight of this fellow, but to keep a close watch upon him, for he did not entertain the smallest doubt, looking at his dress, and the way in which he was evidently " got up," together with his general ap pearance and demeanour, but that he was one of those filthy fellows who are in the habit of prowling about the parks for the purpose of pouncing upon victims, from whom, under the threat of making a charge of an indecent assault against them, they might extort money. Such fellows well knew that there were few persons, however innocent, who would not rather give a sum of money than have their names paraded before the world in connexion with such an accusation. He could not doubt but teat the jury had some time since formed their opi nion of this disgusting man. Let them merely look at his attitude, his dress, his singularly effeminate manner, the peculiarity of his style of head-dress, and his general bearing, all of which were quite suffi cient to indicate the sort of person he was. Ad dressing the prosecutor, the Learned Judge said, " Go away you filthy fellow—leave the court." [The prosecutor gladly made his way out of the court amid such a general demonstration of expres sions of detestation that an experience of thirty years fails to recal its equal to the memory of the writer.] POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. John Davis, a cabman, was brought before the Lord Mayor charged with having left his cab, and having got drunk. The cab was found by a policeman with a horse, but without a driver, and the cabman was roused up from a drunken sleep in a taproom, where he had been spending his employer's money. The wretched fellow appeared with a bruised nose and swelled eyes, and cut a most melancholy figure. The LORD MAYOR—Why, defendant, you might have caused loss of life or broken limbs by this drunken freak of yours. What have you to say about the accusation ? Cabman—Please sour Lordship, I hare been seventeen years upon the streets, and I never was before a beak before in my life. Ido assure your Lordship that neither me nor my cab ever killed anybody or broke their limbs, to my knowledge, though I have been so long about town ; and I wish any other man belonging to this sort of wehicle could say as much.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—Why, you don't seem to be sober yet. What's the matter with your face ? Cab man—Please your Lordship, I'm co sorry for what I have done that I've been having a cry in private, and that makes me look poorly. There's my master, your Lordship, and he'll answer for my being a sober party. Here the cab owner stepped into the witness-box, with a very bad pair of cold weather eyes and a wet moutb. The LORD MAYOR—What have you to say about your driver? Witness—l've nothing particular to say about him, only that he ain't my driver now. The LORD MAYOR—Is he a sober man ? Witness —Yes, he's sober enough. I never seed him drunk. The LORD MAYOR—HOW long has he been with you ? Witness—Three days.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—Don't you get drunk yourself now and then ? Witness---No, my Lord, not often to my knowledge. The LORD MAYOR—Then I suppose you discharged this defendant for taking too much ? Witness—Oh dear no, my Lord. I discharged him for bringing home too little. I believe he's sober enough, but he don't drive no more for me. That's all. The defendant said he had been driving a couple about for some time, and as they gave him a glass or two too much, and as he never would drive when he had too much, he supposed he left the cab in their care while he went to sleep it off. The LORD MAYOR—If you had been here before I would new send you to prison without giving you the alternative of paying a fine ; but as you have not, and as you are punished with the loss of your place, I shall be satisfied with a penalty of 59. His Lordship then gave a hint to the master to take care how he followed the example of his man. A young fellow, in a most ragged condition, was brought up. He was recognized by the crowd in the justice-room as a steady customer in the streets in the cold weather, and has a peculiar way of attracting commiseration. A policeman saw the defendant crouching up in a corner where he was sure to attract the attention of passengers, and desired him to move away, but the request was not attended to, for the station was a pro fi7able one, and the silent beggar knew that if any body attempted to pull him by the clothes he would in an instant become as naked as when he was born. Relying upon this mode of effecting impunity, he ge nerally disregarded the appeals of the police. One of the force, however, who had been some time practising with unruly beggars, contrived to carry him and all his rags before the Lord Mayor. The LORD Marcos—Defendant, how long have you been at this sort of work ? The policeman—He won't answer a word, my Lord. I'll do him the justice to say, that I never heard him ask anybody for the value of a farthing. The LORD MAYOR—No, he trusts to the superior eloquence of his dress.—(Laughter.) I dare say the colder the weather is the more ragged he becomes. The policeman—Exactly so, my Lord. It is in the bitter frost he appears in full character. He has then scarcely a tatter upon him. The LORD MAYOR-IVell, I shall take him out of the misery he delights in for some time, however. He shall have six weeks' hard labour in Bridewell. The defendant cast a look upon the Lord Mayor which would no doubt have had a powerful effect upon an ordinary observer of street distress; but his Lordship was impenetrable, and the silent mendicant was committed to prison. WESTMINSTER. Mr. W. F. Fenton, of 11, Beaufort-street, Chelsea, traveller, attended to prefer a complaint against the conductor of a Chelsea omnibus, for deceiving him as to the route or destination of the carriage on the night of the lit inst. The proprietor, as is usual in these cases, had been summoned to produce the conductor, and _Henry Bagger (badge 227) appeared, and pleaded not guilty. Mr. Fenton stated that he hailed the omnibus in question at a little before eleven on the night of the Ist inst., in St. Paul's churchyard, and inquired of the conductor whether it went to Battersea- bridge or Beaufort-street, to which he replied " yes." In order to make himself particularly safe in the matter, he examined the omnibus, and discovered the words "Battersea-bridge" upon the centre panel. He got into the carriage, and upon reaching Church-street, Chelsea, the conductor opened the door and said, " Here you are, sir, this is it;" and immediately af terwards added, " Battersea- bridge, sir." Com plainant told him that he knew the locality too well to be persuaded that that was Battersea-bridge, when the conductor observed that he was close to it ; and upon complainant's asking whether he was not going to take him any further, the conductor replied, " No, we stop here." Complainant then intimated that he would summon him, as he had been tricked in this manner several times before. Mr. Taylor, the chief clerk—Then the deceiving you as to the route was at the time you got in, at St. Paul's Churchyard ? Complainant—Yes, that was where I asked him. Mr. BURRELL, having consulted with the clerk, said—The deception appears to have been practised in the City, which is out of my jurisdiction. A respectable-looking man here stepped for ward and interrupted the magistrate, who was about to make some observation, by stating that he was con nected with the establishment of the omnibus proprie tor, and that defendant could not possibly be the offender, as he must have been at a considerable dis tance from the place at the time. Mr. BURRELL (to complainant)—ls this the man ? Complainant—Certainly not; but this man wears the badge the conductor wore that night. I saw the con ductor who deceived me, as I have stated, as to the route of the omnibus, leave this court just now. A friend of mine who has been tricked this way has taken proceedings against the offenders two or three times, but has never been able to get at them. It is a common practice to shift their badges from one to the other, which enables them to defeat the law with impunity. I can swear most positively that the man who left the court just now was the wearer of the badge on the night in question. These persons pre sume upon the travellers' excitement and flurry at the time these deceptions are practised, which render them unable to identify the offender, and they thus escape punishment. Mr. 13uauELL—You must take the summons in the City against the right man. Complainant—l stated the case to you, sir, at the time you granted the summons, as I do now. Mr. Taylor here spoke to the magistrate in a low tone, when the latter said to the complainant—You are too late for a summons now; the week has gone (the statute requiring that all complaints should be l a id within seven days). Complainant—Perhaps you will excuse me, sir, with respect to where the offence was committed. How can I tell I am going to be deceived in the route until I get to the end of the journey. Mr. BURRELL—It is clear you were deceived in the City. When you got to Chelsea you were un deceived. Complainant—l took this matter up entirely on public grounds, these deceptions being of common occurrence. Then I cannot now proceed in any way ? Mr. BURRELL--YOU are now too late. Cemplainant's costs (25.),_ which he had paid for the summons, were r e t u r ne d to him. THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
