AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY. The Vanderbilt has arrived from New York with dates to October 24. Politics uncharged. The financial ezoitement has subsieled. New York Cotton Market quiet. Flour firm. Provisions dull. Coffee steady. Freights without change. The Vanderbilt went ashore on the 13-ambles this morning. She got off with the high tide, and has proceeded to Havre. The Atlantic steamer was to leave New York on the 26th ult. The Vanderbilt has no specie. The New Ye)* Herald of the 24th says :—" This (23rd) has been a very blue day in Wall-street. So far as the Stock Market is concerned we see nothing in the immediate future but depreciation and disappointment ; as for speculation, it is out of the question." - A Convention of delegates from New York coun try banks had been held at Syracuse. Owing to the insufficiency of the notice given—the circulars calling the meeting were destroyed by the burning of the mail bags on the Central Railroads a few days ago—there was but a slim attendance, only thirty six delegates being present, representing a capital of some six million dollars. Resolutions were adopted recommending the country banks to discount to the extent of th'ir ability, and to aid in bringing produce to the seaboard ; also appoint ing a special committee to effect an association for the mutual protection and interest of the banks. and to arrange a system of redemption and exchange. The delegates expressed themselves very freely with regard to the city banks. The meeting stands adjourned, subject to the call of the special committee. A meeting of the directors and shareholders of the New York and Erie Railroad had been held, far the purpose of raising subscriptions to telieve the road from ite present financial embarrassments. About four hundred thousand dollars were sub scribed, and a committee appointed to collect sub scriptions, The committee assembled on the following day at the office of the company, No. 45, Wall-street. There were seventeen of the twenty members present, and arrangements were made with the view of , raising the necessary amount of two millions within the eighteen days prescribed Of this, about one million has been already sub scribed, and sanguine expectations are entertained that the rest will be forthcoming at the appointed time. Several large and extensively known houses in New York city have signified their willingness to receive consignments of flour and grain from the West, among whom, besides Messrs. Spofford and Tileston, we may mention Messrs. Grinnell, Mint urn and Co., and cotters have been mentioned as willing to do the same thing, and to pay freight and charges to New York, with the view of aiding in the movement of breadstuffs from the interior to the seaboard, by which the present pressure may be alleviated and exchanges equalised. The Liverpool packet ship Jacob A. Westervelt, at New York, on the 23rd ult., took fire in her cabin, and before the flames could be subdued she was damaged to the amount of about 2,000 dollars. . . • The brig Auglo-Saxon hes been despatched from Boston to Port-au-Prince with documentary evi dence which, it is hoped, will fully exonerate Capt Mayo aad all accused from the charge of any cim plicity with the introduction of counterfeit paper money into the Haytien dominions. It is shown that a Haytien sul - j3ct had a quantity of bills printed in Thston, and went passenger in Capt. Mayo's vessel, but escaped from her at Cape Hay tien in an open boat, and from this the charge may have had its origin. COMMERCIAL. Nicw Yost, Oct. 24th. There is little to be said this week, in the uaset lad state of financial affairs, regarding the dry goods trade, which has been m,asurably for the time being brought to a stand. Country merchants purchase with much carrion, except in undoubted cases, for cash and at lower prices. The season for the Bouth ern trade is over. Those who bought latest came off best ; the stocks of goods could now be obtained for cash at rates . , • . • • • • • . son. The Western trades which has paid up so badly, has been light, and the purchases making are chiefly for cash, or in undoubted cases on short paper. It is supposed that the trade from th's quarter will continue to a later period in the season, as arrangements are peifec'ed for bringing forward breadstuffs and provisions —stocks of which are light in all our seaboard cities. '1 he increased circulation of paper currency, it is sup posed, will tend to improve exchange with the interior, and aid more or leas in increasing the remittances. The feature of the week has been the large Lumber of houses which have opened their dome to the retail trade at wholesale prices, or under. This course has brought a large number of buyers into the city from the adjacent country towns, in every direction, who crowd these stores for the purpose of laying in supplies for the win'er at low • prices. These houses display impaling advertisements in the papers offering to sell all their stocks off at " prices reduced to correspond with the present value of money, for cash, in current funds." Among those who have entered the list we notice firms of wholesale jobbers in Broadway, Warren, Murray and other cross streets, west of Broadway. A large stock in Verse), street is offered for sale by the assignee, at private sales for cash, at " less than auction prices." This movement on the part of the houses engaged in it, has contributed to unsettle the regular course of business, to the confusion and dismay of retailers in both the city and country. Under such circum stances it is difficult to give a range (potations which would afford any correct criterion or standard of prices. The impor ters were doing but little, and sales if made were generally on a limi ed scale end for " current funds " All seemed to be looking for a trywarable turn (by and by) whe❑ trade would become settled, and go on in the old and usual form. The total number of fai'urea, officially reported since the Ist of August, is about nine hundred. It is estimated that the total liabili•ies of these suspensions will amount to full ninety million dollars. It will be seen by this that there is plenty of food for a general bankrupt law. During the whole of the :evolution in 1837 the number of failures reported in the eit-, was about five hundred; but the returns under the hankinpt law, in 1841, showed that five thousand took the benefit of the act, showing liabilities amounting to about fifty million of dollars. BRIM:MUFFS : Flour : There was a good domestic and Eas•crn demand, with some purchases for export, while the market was firm, and closed ;t an advance of about be per ha Canadian was firmer. Svuthern was in better supply, and prices closed heavy for common, while extra was unchanged. W heat : There continued to be a good demand, while prices were wiihout change of moment for primo to choice lots. Common and medium grades were easier. COTTON was quiet, the stock very light, ard no sales of moment weto repotted. Sales were made, reported yesterday by telegraph, in New Oilcans at 91c to 10c for middling to good middling, with sales of 3,500 bales. FREIGHTS : To Lir -rpool, about 15,000 bushels of corn, in bags, were engaged at 61C, 10 tons of oil at 22s 6d ; flour was quiet at 28 3d, and cotton at ad ; 400 boxes cheese were taken at 256 ; 400 barrels lard at 20c, and 300 brls rosin at 2s 33. To London, 11 Ws ashes were taken at 27s 6d, and 300 brls rosin at 2, 8,1, To Glasgow, 5,000 bushels of wheat were engaged yesterday, in bags, at. 83. A vessel was ta'ten for deals to load at Bt.

In addition to the evidence already given, there was some corroborative testimony produced, but Mr. Bluck c:ntended that it was not sufficient to send the priaoners for trial.

A DICAR Jays r.—James Farley was charged with de frauding the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company out of twopence half penny.

Tysn, the pro prietor of a large dancing saloon, in Great Richmond street, was summoned by Inspectors Duggan and White, under the following circumstances Mr. Snowball appeared for the defer 'ant. Inspector D , ggan said, Mr. Tyan keeps a " hop" in Great Richmond-street. Mr Snowbell: It is not a " hop," sir, and I wish yon would call things by their proper name—this is done for the purpose 4 f prejudicing the defendant in th e e y es o f t h e bench ;it is not a h op, but a respectable dancing room. Inspector Duggan : Mr. Tyan keeps a dancing room in Great Richmond-street ; on the 20. h October, I went there along with Inspector White, at half-past eleven o'clock at night, and saw twenty five prostitutes, and thirty-seven men in the room, and I reported it. I cautioned him the night before Mr. Snowball : Were they all sober ? Yes, air. Were they acting improperly ? No, sir. Then you saw no one drunk, no improper conduct, nor nothing wrone of any description. ? I did not, sir. Mr. Crosthwaite What sort of house is this ? It is a dancing house, air. A'derman Helme : It's a lrge room, eighty feet long—ae bg as this court. Mr. Ewart : Was there any drink there? Inspector Duggan : No, sir, there is no d r i n k so ld i n th e place ; t' ere is a room 1:..low stairs where ginger beer an-I British wines are sold, but noth i ng else. Mr. Snowball : There is no refreshment sold in the ro nu? No, there is nothing done in the room but dancing. Mr. Snowball : And that respectably ? Yes. Inspector White corrob. orated the evidence of Inspector Duggan. Mr. Saowbell : Is that the case ? Yes, that's the complaint. Mr. Snowball said the summons did not come within the meaning or the let er of the Act of Parliament. He then read the 251st section of the act and cmtendei that there was not a word in the summons nor the evidence to bring the cas • under the act, which it.flietcd a penalty of £5. He would ask where were these women to go ? Would it not be far batter to have them in a well-conducted house, as the officer stated this house to be, than out in the be excluded from such houses ; Alas , were not excluded from entering any tavern or inn to procure refreshments ; they could enter into the refreshment roem at any railway station and get whet they wanted. They could sit in a carriage with any ore in the land, and it was not a prose cution, but a persecution, to proceed as in this instance. Besides, how was his client to know what sort of persons these female; were? They did n thing improper in the room, and he contended that the case ought to be dismissed Mr. Ewart: Suppose they went to the Con cert Hall? Mr. Snowball: I would advise them to go to the Concert Hall on Saturday night, as they have a perfect right to do so, or to St. George's Hall, or any other place in town, as long as they conduct themselves properly, as they de in my client's dancing saloon. In reply to Mr. Ewart, Inspector Duggan said this house was the same as the two honey in Newington, and these were not com plained of Mr. Crosthwaite said they would only fine the defendant ss. Edward Fincham, publictu of Regent road, was fined 59 for allowing drunkenness in his house. BIRKENHEAD. BEFORE MESSRS. FEILDEN, CASE AND CUSP. AN IMPUDENT ROBBRT —Joseph Parkinson, a navvie, was brought up on remand, from the 30th ultimo, charged with stealing a coat and a two foot rule, the property of Robert Buckley. The offence was committed in the house lately occupied by Mr. Styin, upholsterer and cabinet maker, in Chester Street. Between 7 and 8 o'clock on the morning in question the prisoner came up to the house from Woodside, and after looking about for a short time, was seen to enter the shop, and in 6 or 7 minu'es after wards was seen by a labourer named John MuTenna, to return by the same way with a coat on his back, which he (MeTenna) had not observed when he entered. Observing this, and without saying any thirg to the prisoner, he ran outside the pre mises and called to Buckley, who was working on the roof, asking where he had left his coat. Buckley told him he had left it in a closet in a room at the back of the shop. Having examined the closet, and found the coat gone, he went after the prisoner, followed by Buckley, overtook him in Pilgrim street, and the coat still on his back. The prisoner pleaded dtunkenn as, and said he had lost his own coat.

In a short time he returned into the turn/A.3 road, upon which he (Price) apprehended him, and, having given him in charge of another watchman, went and searched in the direction the defendant had been. and there found a hare, fresh killed, and quite warm. He then returned to where he had left the defendant, and upon searching him, found three nets in his pockets, such as are used by poachers. Mr Bretherton, who appeared for the defendant, urged that the evidence was not bitch as was required by the Act of Parliament. as at the time of his apprehension he was on the turnpike road ; and al , o that there was a want of proof that the defendant's dog had killed the hare. The Bench, however, said there was quite sufficient to account for hie bring there, and sentence'i him to 14 days' hard labour in the Knutsford House of Correction. ANOTHER CASE.—John Meadows, of H ylake, wal also charged with trespwssing on the land of Jchn Ralph Shaw Rig , at Arrowe, 'with a lurche r d og , i n pursuit of game : Defendant admitted the offence, and way fined 53. and costa.

Upon getting him out he became very rough, and Smith, the other officer, having come to his assistance, they got him away. but while doing so, Thomas Davis pushed him (Smith) down. Ultimately they got them a Kay, and as they were known, summonses were taken out against them. Mr. Bra. therton defended them, and in the course of he eross-ex atnination elicited from Hughes that he and his brother officer had, on a former occasion, been to the Punch-bowl public-hone, where there was fiddling and dancing, although they knew the magistrates had ordered that eort of entertainment to be discontinued.

Isabella Shackleton gave confirmatory eviderce. Mr. Crafter, who keeps the Derby Arms, stated that complainant ran int.) his house for protection, when Walters came to the door, and called out that he would have the b out, and he would have his life.

Mr. Evans gave notice that he should appeal against his Honour's decision, and said he was strongly of opinion with others of his legal friends, that if it were proved to the satisfaction of the court, that at the time of making the adjudication, the bankrupt's available estate was worth £l5O, but should, through no fault of the bankrupts, fail to realize that sum ; the act never contemplated withh 'Ming such a bankmpt's certifi cate.

BELFAST CORPORATION. Subjiined will be found a copy of the award, signed by the Arbitrators, on behalf of the Town Council and of the Executive Committee : The undersigned, having been r( quested to meet and en deavour to effect a settrernent of the litigation at present pending between the Relator, on behalf of the ratepayers, and certain members of the Municipal Corporation of Belfast, have come to the folowing conclusion :—That, believing that the removal rr the evils from which the town and corporation are suffering (by means of a settlement of the litigation in question) has been mainly retarded by a s rong impression which exists in the minds of many of the ratepayers, that, in the past elec tions of members of the To sn Council too much regard has been had to the political feelings and interests of the candidate ; and, believing that this impression has been strengthened by the fact that, with a few exceptions, the members of the council have been selected cxeusively from one political party ; and that, so long as this state of things continues, there will not exist ench an entire absence of political feeling, or such general public confidence in the council as we believe all parties now desire to establish and maintain—Vire recommend that, as vacancies occur in the Town Council, they should be filled up from the most respectable ratepapers, who are willing to under take the duty without regard to political feeling, and that the special respondents, and all our fellow-townsmen, ought to use their best exertions and inflaence to effect this object, until the council has been divested of all appearance or suspicion of political bearing, or of any of its powers being used for any other objects than the well-being of the town. That, in order to effect this object, we strongly recommend that, at the falling in of fift •en vacancies at November next, ten at least, of these vacancies should be filled up from the liberal class of ratepayers. In making this recommendation, we disclaim situps her any wish to interfere with the rights and privileges of our fallow-townsmen as to their votes, but merely suggest what we believe to be the course likely to restore the harmony and good feeling which h-s been so seriously interfered with. Tha', on this being effected, and a sum of eight thousand five hundred pounds (as proposed by Messrs. Lemon, and Bristow, exclusive of three thousand to be paid to Mr. Lawless, under Mr. Bruce's letter), being lodged by the special respondents in our hands, all legal and equitable proceedings shall be immedi ately stPpended, and no opposition shall be offered to the passing of the bill to legalise the borrowing of all moneys lent to the Town Council, and to relieve the special respondents Team all liability for the application and expenditure of all moneys received by the council, and finally to put an end to the existing proceedings in the Court of Chancery; and we recommend that all parti s should join in requesting the Lord Chancellor, to take charge of such bill as a public bill, and to we his influence, and that of the government to have the same caused through the houses of parliament. That on the passing of the act of parliament the sum of eight thousand flee hundred pounds shall be handed over to Messrs. Dnnville, and Mac namara, to he then ap,died to the discharge of all costa and expenses which have been incurred and not otherwise provided for. This recommendrien to be submitted to, and subject to the approval of the Attorney General for Ireland. JAMES BRISTOW. " WM. DIINvILLIS. " JAMZ4 LEM " JAMBI MACNAMARA.

It app aced, from a large mass of evidence taken in the c Ise, that on Saturday night the deceased (who was rather an habitual di unkard) w nt home somewhat the worse of " drink;" some time of er that he went into a pub! c house, where he met with a young female, nam3d Agn e Gallagher, described as a violent pers n, anl one who is able to oppose herself in paglistic encounter to moat m -n in the locality where she resides. She wanted the deceased to give her some drink, but he refused, and then she aleged he owed her 3d , and asked him for paym-nt. He denied owing her anything, she then knocked him down, and beat him into the street.

This was an adjourned last examination Mr Wor thington appeared for the petitioning creditors and assignees, and Mr. 88. C3bb3tt for the bankrupt. The case had been adjourned for the production of a witness, named Marsden, from Liverpool, touching the transfer of a ship by the bankrupt, which, it was alledged, was a fraudulent transaction. The examination of Marsden was read th;s day in the presence of the bankrupt, and he deposed to witnessing the transfer of the ship Millicent from the bankrupt to Messrs. Wilson, Brown, and Co., in a sponging house at Liverpool. The bill of sale was signed on the 7th of March, a short time before the adjudi cation in bankrun'ey. Ttie cnnsideration for the vessel was stated to be £1,301 is , and au undertaking was entered into by Wilson, Brown, and Co , to pay £4OO- nut of this sum to Mr. Peak, of Prince Edward's Island, who was one of the bankrupt's creditors. As the firm of Wilson, Brown, and Co., were also creditors to a large amount, it was urged by Mr Worthington that this transaction was a fraudulent proceeding, and an undua pre ference without pressure from creditors. Tne petitioning creditor and assignee is the bankrupt's uncle, and was formerly in business with bankrupt and snot her uncle in Prince Edward's Island. The assignee's claim is fora con siderable sum, but the bankrupt disputes the claim.. Mr. Cobbett went carefully through the whole facts of the case. Hessta-ed that something mare than two years ago the bank rupt was in partnership with his uncle and the petitioning creditor, Francis M.Gill, another uncle. Of late the peti tioning credit , r ha i been taking advantage of that court for extremely improper purposes. He urged that the bankrupt, when abroad, had made an arrangement with one of the firm of Wilson, Brown, and Co. to make over the Millicent to the firm ; and that in the transfer of the vessel he had only carried out that agreement, and had acted throughout in a bona fide mannes. When the bankrupt came to England, his uncle, the detaining creditor, caused him to be apprehended as an absconding debtor ; but when he discovered that the matters were about to be inquired into in due course of law, he liherated his nephew, and made him a 134, krupt. With regard to a point made by Mr. Worthington, which was that the bankrupt had improperly destroyed a letter he had received from Mr. Peak, acknowledging the receipt of the £4OO, Mr. Cobbett submitted . that this was not material to the case, as Wilson, Brown,''and Co. prored that they had fulfilled their part of the undertaking, and had forwarded the amount to Mr. Peak. The petitioning c-editor h.d really no interest in the bankrup 's estate, as the claim was against the joint estate, and the uncle in Prince Edward's Island was able to pay the debt and costs. He contended that the petitioning creditor had persecuted the bankrupt, and had brought him to that court merely to gratify his feeling i cf vengeance —His Honour in giving judgment, said, with regard to the lette- alleged to be destroyed, he did nc•t think tb t material to the case, :herefore he should dismiss the complaint, as far as that was concerned. Wish regard to the transfer of the ship, a month before the adjudication in bankruptcy, he did consider it was a fraudulent transaction, done without any pressure from creditors, and therefore it came clearly within the fourth clause of the section of the act referring to fraudulent conduct on the part of bankrupts. He hoped there would be not hing further done gainst the bankrupt, and he would award him a certificate of the third class, suspending it for six months lie granted protection fur twenty-one days, to allow Mr. Cobbett to consider whether he should appeal against the judgment of the commissioner.

DOES NOT LIKE. At the annual dinner of the Warehousemen's and Clerks' Schools at the London Tavern, on Thurs day evening, Mr. Charles Dickens in the chair, that gentleman, in the course of his remarks, said t Their motto was not, let U 3 eat and drink, for to-morrow we We; hut let Us eat and drink, for to-morrow we lire. (Cheers and laughter). It was because a good and great work was to live "to-morrow, to-morrow, and to-morrow," nod ,was to become a greater and a better work with every succeeding to-morrow that they eat and drank there at all. (Cheers and laughter.) Conspicuous upon the card of admission to the dinner and on the title-page of the little book descriptive of the institution was the word " Oleo's," and it set him thinking that morning upon what sort of schools ho did not like. (Hear, hear.) To begin with. and like charity he began at home, he did not like the sort of school to which Ile once went himself (laughter), the proprietor of which was by far the most ignorant man he had ever the pleasure to know. (Laughter.) He was the worst tempered man he ever knew, who acted upon the principle of snaking as much out of them, aad putting as little into them as he possibly could, (laughter), and who sold them at a figure which he remembered they used to delight in estienating at £2 4s. 6d. a-head. (Laughter.) tie did not like that school because he did not see any business the master had to be at the head instead of at the bottom, and because, he never could under stand the wholesomeness of the system which caused the abject appearance and degraded condition of the teachers, that plainly said to the scholars every day of their lives, " Boys never he learned, whatever you are. (Laughter.) Above all things, be warned of that in time by our sunken cheeks,—by our poor pimply noses, so cruelly erupied in the treaty morning,—by our meagre want,—by our acid bear,—and by our extraordinary suit of clothes, of which no human being can say whether they are snuff-coloured turned black, •r black turned snuff celoured—(laughter)—a point on which even we ourselves are perfectly unable to offer one ray of enlightenment, it is sa very berg since they were undarned and new," (Cheers and Isugh`er.) He did not like the sort of school also because he had a lingering idea and never forgot his ancient suspicion touching the curious coincidence th it th bey with 'our brothers to come always get the pr . zes. (Cheers and laughter.) lii fact he did not like that sort of school, because it was a must pernicious and ahominahle humbug altegether. (Laughter.) Again, he did not like the ladv'e school with which their school used to dance on Wedrosdays. (Laughter.) There, one half cf the young ladises, as he looked upon them now, seemed always to have been in new sfeys and in disgrace. (Laughter ) Memory depicted to him the youthful en dweller of his fist aff.ctions, as ever standing agsinst a wall in a curious !urchin° of wood, which confined her innocent feet in the first dancing position, while the arms, which should have encircled his jacket—(laughter)—were pin ioned behind her by another instrument of torture, called a backboard, in the manner of a double direction post. (oanehler.) Again, he did not like that sort of Echoed of which th: y had a notable example in his part of K nt, which wee enriched ages ago by worthy scholars and g )cel men long deceased, whose munificent endovereente had he n writ; ed from their original ourp and in their deteriorated cenditi' n were struggled for with most indecent pertinacity. (Hear, hear.) Again, he did not like the sort of schools where the bright childish irna gieation was ever disguised, and where the bright childish fancy, which it was gee I for the wisest of them to remem ber, was glo imily and grimly stared out of countenance— where he had never sees amo 'get the pupils any boys or any girls,- but little pemts and small calculating tnachinis. (Laughter)'. He did not by any means like schools in leather breeches, or with mortified straw baskets of bon nets, who filed along the streets to church in long, melan choly lines, under the escort of that surprising B-iiish rage seer, a beadle. (Cheers, and laughtel). Lastly, it was always comfortable to him to think that he did not like, some vears ado, cheap distant schools where neglected children and poor orphans were pensioned from year to year, and underwent scams of youthful mis ry, which ought net to be glanced at in that cheerful scone. Ile would new ketch the sort of school he liked, It was a school es ablished by the members of an ihdus trioes and useful order, for the orphans and necessitous children of the it own brotherhood and sisterhood. (Cheers.) That school was originated only four years ago, and in the first, sht weeks of its existence the young men nab scribed the large sun of £3,00n, It had been open eel)/ three years, and they had now on their foundation thirty-nine children, and they would hive in a few days six more, making in all forty-five. (Cheers ) They had been most munificently assisted by the heads of the mercantile houses, and be was glad to say they were name ouely represented aroun I him (Cheers.) Their funded c spital was 14,000 f., and they must still go forward, because 4 children could form but asm It proportion of the ne cessitous families beloneiug to the whelesale trade of the U .n..teguom. (Hear, hoar.) The dwellinv-hawe which they rented for a smell term of years could afford but small accommodati,n for their breadth of design, and to carry the work two degrees further, to better and host, there must be more wo , k—more e - -operation—more friends—and more money. (Cheers.) He also reminded them that the ben-fits of the school were reserved to the children of the subse fibers, and that it was an essential principal of tie instituti-a to help those only who helped th mselves. (neer, hear.) The unfortunate children .of a father so base and criminal as to withhold a subscription so exceedingly sma 1 as three-pence a-week could not in justice be allowed t i shoulder out the happier children of a father who had done that 'Ole sea- ire to the institution. This was a children's schosl, which was no less a chil dren's 1 orne. The inmates were not confided to the care of cell and ignorant strangers, and never—acccerdine to its foundation—could leis into such hands. Its aff tirs must fre'n generation to generarit n be administered by men living in such homes as those poor children had lose, --men who hoped that their own children should find a refuge in it if they were early called away. (Cheers.) In conclusion, he gave " Prosp: rity to the Warehousemen's and C cries' Schools." (Loud cheers ) LONDON INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 5. in re WILLI&Ie W. G NORMAN.—The insolvent, who is a a journeyman printer in the employ of Messrs. Bradbury and Evans, applied to be discharged under the act, having been on bail since Ju'y 'est, when he filed his schedule. Mr. Reed opposed for Mr. Chase, a creditor ; and Mr. Sargood supported. The insolvent, who is in a bad state of health, appeared to be in custody at the suit of Mr. Jones, a su geon, who had lived in Portugal street, for a debt for attendance. It was admitted to be a friendly arrest. The insolvent consulted a person named Guy, who. acted as clerk to Mr. Edward Govett, an attorney. Mr. Chase. was a creditor for rent, and offered to take it by instalments if secured; he and Mr. Jones were the principal creditors. The action of Mr Chase, brought by Messrs. Preston and Webb, was defended by Mr. Guy and Mr. Govett, and the latter was the attorney in the insolvency. Mr. Chase had been put to expense by a defence to his action, for which he now complainer', and the point raised was, whether a petition concocted on purpose to deprive Mr. Chase of his debt should be sustained. Towards the close of the case, Mr. Jones was called.. He proved that the insolvent, whom he had attended for years, owed him a debt, and proceeded to state that he was not aware, until about a fortnight after, that the insolvent had been arrested at his suit. He did not employ Mr Grayson an attorney, to arrest the insol vent. When he heard from the insolvent's wife that he was arrested at his suit Mr. Jones said he expressed his "astonishment.' In the course of the case, Gay and Govett were examined Guy had been paid .£ll, and the bill was £26. The Chief Commissioner said the evidence cf Mr Jones had put a new fAture on the case. He was previously of opinion the best thing would be to dismiss the petition,because there had been a clear vexatious defence by the conduct of Guy and Govett, who had made these law jobs for themselves, the defence to the action, the arrest and the ineolvency. There had been a fraud on the court by the insolvent being arrested without the authority of Mr. Jones, and a fraud on the Act cf Parliament. He was bound to dismiss the petition, and, in doing so, he hoped the insolvent would not fall into such bad hands again, and that he would make some arrangement with Mr. Chase. All his misfortunes were (added the learned Commissioner) from having fallen into the hands of the two men, Messrs. Guy and Govett. (Some applause followed these observa tions.) His Honour said : I shall consult the other Com missioners, 'whether they shall have the opportunity of playing such a trick again. (More applause.) The peti tion was dismissed. At LEWIS & COMPANY'S.
