GEORGE BEAUMONT.—On Wednesday, Mr. Com missioner Jemniett gave judgment in this case. tfis Honour said, it appeared from the balance sheet that the bankrupt's debts were £13,000, - and nothing to pay them with ; that the charges brought against the bankrupt, by the assignees, were bad bookkeeping, reck less trading, dealing in accomModation bills, and pre ferential payments to the person with whom those bill transactions had taken place. After having carefully read the evidence and proceedings on the file, he had come to the conclusion, as to each of those charges, that it was fully proved. There was also a charge brought against the bankrupt by a body of Yorkshire creditors, who considered themselves aggrieve& by the bankrupt having fraudulently sold at a saJrifice goods bought from them. He (the Commissioner) was of opinion that it was proved that the bankrupt had been continually in the habit of doing this to the extent of about one-third of the goods .bought, and in many cases within two or three • days of the purchase; and that on the - whole £21,000 worth of goods, the gross profit was only £lOO. But as to the charge brought by the same creditors of fraud with respect to 'the consignments abroad, he thought the evidence did not clearly make out the charge, although the case was one of suspicion. He (the Commissioner) therefore suspended the certificate for two years from the 9th April (the day of the bank-. 'rupt passing his last examination), and then to be of the third class.—Protection granted for three months. SERIOUS CHARGE OF ARSON On Wednesday a machine-maker named Henry Firth was brOught before the magistrates at Manchester, charged with setting fire to his own premises on Sunday, the 22ndluly last, with a view to defrauding the North of England Fire and Life Insuiance Company. He had insured on the 17th of the previous March for £1,670' and after the fire sent in an estimate making his loss £1,860. The office `afterwardi offered him £7OO, which he refused, and brought an action last Liverpool assizes, when the office paid £1,200 into court. The case was referred to Mr. R. Ashton Cross for arbitration, and on that arbitration the prisoner swore that he went to Chester . on the night before the fire, and did not get back till ten o'clock next morning, two" hours after the fire began: The prosecution called witnesses to show that at a quarter before eight o'clock on the morning in question the premises were ,discovered on fire, and that ten minutes later the prisoner was discovered lying under an eighteen feet wall, from which he had fallen and lamed himself—traces of footsteps over the roof of a building from his own premises and along the wall being found, to the spot where he had fallen, which was in the stone yard of the Manchester corporation. It was also shown that the prisoner had stated to the insu• ranee company that all his books had been burnt by the fire, but that in reality the cash book, wages boot, and ledger were found afterwards under the steam boiler fireplace uninjured, where it was supposed that the prisoner had thrown them with the intention of causing them to be consumed. The evidence in the case was not complete, and the prisoner was remanded for a week. The magistrates offered in the meantime to take bail in four sureties of £250 each. SUCCEEDING PACKETS.

PUBLIC ;PROSECUTORS On Saturday, the report of the select committee, appointed by the House of Commons to enquire into the question of public prosecutors, was issued amongst other Parliamentary papers. It appears that two draft reports, one proposed by Mr. J. G. Phillimore, the chairman, the other by Lord Stanley, were submitted to the committee, and the latter was, with some amend ments, finally adopted. The first portion of the report consists of a summary of the evidence, setting forth the evils of the present mode of conducting criminal prose cutions, and embracing the mass of testimony taken by the committee during its sittings of last year, when it was first appointed. Lords Brougham and Campbell, the Attorney General, and a number of witnesses, of the highest eminence in the legal profession, have concurred in the expediency of appointing a public prosecutor. as the only means of preventing the evils arising from the escape of criminals through partiality or want of means to prosecute, the loose manner in which prosecutions are conducted in some parts of the kingdom, the frequent bribery of the police by law attorneys, and the mismanagement of cases conducted by policemen. Mr. Trafford, the stipen diary magistrate of Salford, states that when he entered upon the duties of his office he found great irregularities prevailing, and frequent failures of justice, owing to the want of a public prosecutor ; lie found the attorney to whom many prosecutions were entrusted a man of had character, who, in one case, hal actually embezzled the amount allowed as costs to the witnesses. The state of things described in the evidence is very defec tive, and calls urgently for amendment. Some effort has been made to check the evils arising from it ; in Liverpool, for instance, by selecting a gentleman,. legally qualified, and paid by a fixed salary, to perform the office of district agent in all prosecutions. The committee recommend that such agents shall be appointed througout the country to prepare and conduct proseeutions through the stage preliminary to trial. When it comes to their knowledge that a crime has been committed, and that no steps have been taken to bring the culprit to justice, it will be their duty to take the necessary measures for apprehending him ; or, in the case of a person already in custody, if the case is one of more than ordinary difficulty or import ance, to take upon themselves the further manage ment of the prosecution. It will be their business to collect and prepare the evidence, to see that the indictment is properly drawn up, and brought before the grand jury ; and to prepare the brief and instruct coun sel at the time of trial. The committee does nut go so far as to advise that Individnals instituting prosecutions should be prohibited from employing their own attorneys and counsel, and be compelled to resort exclusively to the public prosecutor. They propose to leave it open to the private prosecutor to pursue the ordinary course, as at present; but with a view to prevent the compro mises which are sometimes resorted to from private motives, and to ensure the effective administration of justice, they suggest that it should be compulsory on an attorney employed to conduct a prosecution, to give notice to the district agent of his inte n ti on to prefer - an indictment, and that the agent should have authority to intervene, and, if necessary to apply to the court for leave to take up the prosecution, and conduct it to its close. The committee state, in conclusion, that an efficient system of' public prosecutions may be established, and would be the means of placing the administration of criminal justice on a footing more con sistent than at present with the requirements of an enlightened age.
