DIPORTANT TO SHIP-BROKFK3 & CHARTERER 3. COUNTY COCRT-YEiTERDAY. V:PJAE ELAM, ESQ., JUDGE. IMEnSAI3. BARD, FEIN:END, AND CO. V. donw L 13,SISICLING, CAPT. CP THE SHIP JOANNA CATP.,ARINO.—In this case, the action was brought to recever. the sum of £37 10; 01 for commiedoe, being 5 y,er cent. on a charter patty, effected by plaintiffs, oh the ship of which tee defeedaet is master. Mr. Atpinall (with Mr. Hime) waE , for the pleintiffe, and Mr. Almond for the deem - salt. The c. se, ne will be seen, was ore interesting to ship brokers, owners, and cherterers. Mr. Aspinall, in stating the case, said the plaintiffs were ship-brokers ail agents of this town, doing a very large besinesss, and w 11 known to the mercantile and shipping comene.tity. The defendant was the master cf the stir, or vessel, called the Joanna Catharine, and the action was brought to recover the sum of £37 10s. far commiession, data to his clients for having effieeted, at the request of the defendant, a charter .ror his shin, for which he W 3-3 to receive 1' 1 750 for freight. The defendant applied to Messrs. Bahr, Behrend and Co., -to effect a charter for his vessel, and they did oo ; and by the terms of the charter, the moment it was signed the defendant was liable by the document itself, for on the face of it such was stated. Aeher the charter party was signed, some ddfficrilty arose about the careteug, capacity of the chip ; and, as it would appear, the firm of Vos, Brown and Co. in some: ay interfered regarding that, and subsequently the charter was cancelled. The :hip, in the first instance, was charteeed, through the agency of the plaintfah, to Messrs. Nnttall, Mors and Co , but after the charter was etecelled, she was -chartered to another party by gessrs. Toe, Brown and Co. The di scanty that arose in the first instance was, that, after the defendant signing the charter, it appeared that it wet alleged the vessel could not carry hhe tonnage which the defendant guaranteed she would. After a good deal of diffinalry, Messrs. Bahr, Behrendt and Co., succeeded in prc curie g the cancel of 'the charter, but the defendant then, instead -of -employing them to effect another charter, pro ceeded to Messr Vos, Brown, and Co., who chartered the vessel to another party altogether from the first. Now, 'in this instance, the defendant had no grounds whatever 'for being dissatisfied with the plaintiffs, but on the con trary, ou g ht to feel very m uc h o bli ge d to t h em f or hav i ng relieved him from the obligation to which he had bound 'himself ; but in their successful efforts to relieve the defendant, they by no means gave up the commission to which they were justly entitled for having done the business before. When the charter was signed, that moment, according to it, -the commission was due. The captain goes to another person, and effects a new charter, through Messrs. Vos, Brown, and Co. It ho had done so through the plaintiffs they might, through favour alone, have made some allowance out of the first commission. "They did not insist on the defendant getting them to arrange the second charter, but they insisted, rightly and lawfully, that he should pay for the business done for him in the first case, as there was no waiver whatever of the commission in that instance, and they .slid not even charge for the great amount of trouble they had in cancelling the first charter. It did not make any difference to the plaintiff.; what doubt was created by the defendant, after he had signed the guarantee of the ship's carrying capacity, whether she was able to -carry the tonnage set down to her or not. The defendant had entered into an agreement to pay, and nothing but payment or satisfaction for it could be taken as an excuse If the second charter had been made through the plaintiffs, the defendant might have some excuse for asking for a reduction of the charge for the first, and no doubt he would have been allowed something, but he did nothing of the sort; and now, because the plaintiffs had acted kindly towards him by getting the fiat charter cancelled, he refuses to pay them their just and honest demand. He (Mr. Aspinadl) would call Mr. Behrend, one cf the firm, and also Mr. More, who would tell the history of the case, and show that although the charter was cancelled in the first instance, there was no relinquishing of the commission, which was honestly and fairly due to his clients. Ile then called Mr. David Behrend, who said he was one of the firm of Bahr, Behrend and Co , ship brokers and agents, of Liverpool. He remembered the defendant applying to him to obtain a charter for the ship -"Joanna Catharieo." This is the charter party .(docu ment handed in) negociatod the charter, and it was executed by the party and the Captain. The commission was 5 per cent. on £750, and amounted to £37 10s. 05 The charter was affected according to his instructions and representations ab ou t t h e ship. Previous to the charter being effected, no one, to his knowledge, interfered in the matter; after the conclusion of the charter, Vos, Brown, and Co., interfered about it, and in consequence of that in terference, there was a disagreement between the char terers and the captain, as it was alleged that the ship was not capable of carrying what the captain represented her in the charter that he signed Some days discussion took place, and although Messrs. Nuttall, Mors, & Co. did not exactly agree to cancel the charter—the captain having applied several times to get it cancelled—yet, ultimately he (witness) did get it cancelled. Mr. Aspinall: Was there one word said about your relinquishieg the your commission ? Certainly not a single word, for I would not relinquish it, and never did. I never made any agree ment whatever about cancelling the commissin, and it was after a good deal of trouble I succeeded in getiing the charter cancelled by Messrs. Nuttall, Mors, & Co. I never told the Captain that I would cancel the commission, but alwahs held him liable. Ile got the ship chartered a second time by Messrs. Vos, Brown, and Co., although the Captain told me, he would not get any one else, save me, to charter the ship for him. Cross-examined by Mr. Almond : The vessel I believe was consigned to Vos, Brown, and Co , but on some previous voyages she was consigned to us. • The amount of freight to be paid on the charter was £750, and part was to be paid here before the ship sailed, and the charterers were to pay all the freight, and I was not to bear any proportion of it what ever. The charter was written out by a clerk in the office, and the Captain signed it in my presence, The Captain was informed by Messrs. Nuttall, More, and Co., that the vessel was to carry 425 tons dead weight, according to the charter that he had signed. I did not know that the Captain was the master for that voyage only, but on previous voyages he was not the master. Previous to the arrival of the ship we had a correspond ence with the owner, but he applied to us in the first instance and not we to him. After the charter was complete, Mr. Mors mentioned to the captain that he would require him to satisfy him that she would carry 425 tons of dead weight ; the captain did not tell us that the owner repudiated her carrying 425 tons, but Mr. Mors told the captain if she was deficient in what he • had signed the charter for, he would held him (the cap tain) responsible for it. His Honor asked where the owner was ? and the reply was a In Holland ;" and, in answer to another question, the Court was informed that the captain was told if the vessel was deficient in what ho had guaranteed, he would be made pay the difference. The witness in answer to Mr. Almond, said, there was a copy of the charter at one sent to the owner of the ship, so that he must have known what the contract was for. It was a week or 10 days after the captain had sigaccl the charter, that ho said there was any difficulty with the owner. The witness was handed a memorandum which he sent the captain after the difficulty about the ship's caerytng capacity arose, in which he promised to get the charter cancelled, but there was nothing in it foregoing his claim to the conomiesion ; on the contrary, the witness Bait], he told the captain, all through, that he must gat his commis ion. The vessel was subsequently chartered for Rio, and witness offered the same turn, from another party, that the captain had got from Messrs. Vos, Brown. aid Co. Here His Honor intimated that the ease should have been settled out of court, and suggested that now an arrangement might be made, under all the circumstances of the case, but the defendant's legal advise,. said he was instructed to proceed, and take the verdict of the court.---Mr. L. D. More, one of the firm of Nuttall. Mors, and Co., merchants, was than examined at some length, the chief part of his evidence bearing on the ques tion at issue was as follows. His firm chartered the vessel through Messrs. Bah; Behrend, and Co., and the latter told him the ship would carry from four hundred to four hundred and twenty-five ton dead weight, as the captain had guaranteed to him (Mr. Behrend) that she would do so. The captain wad present at that statement, and witness expressed some doubt about it to the captain, to whom he spoke both in English and German (the latter the car ain'e own language), bat the captain stated, before he left the office, that she would carry 425 tens, and witness said, in that ease he would pay him £750 freight ; and again, before he left the office, he repeated the same to him in German and English, so there could be no mistake about it, and witness left under the impressiou that she would carry 425 tons, not from what he heard from Mr. Behrend, but from the captain, end he told him he would hold him responsible. That was in the morning, and the chewer party was signal then. In the course of the day, Mr. Vos came to him, and he (witness) told him of the transaction, and he was informed then that the vessel would carry only 300 tons weight and measurement, and of coarse she could not carry 4 e - '5. Witness told him that the captain had assu'ed him that she would do so, and then he told Mr. Behrend, he must satisfy himself, and he said, " I might satisfy myself on that point." Witness said he felt satisfied s h e could not carry 425 tons, and then said he would not cancel the charter unless he got a proportionate share of the profits that would have resulted to him if the vessel carried according to the captain's guarantee. After fire or six day's discussion about the cancelling of the charter, witness did not agree, nor, in fact, never agreed to cancel it, but Mr. Behrend asked him if he (Mr. B.) would THE NORTHERN' TiMES.rmLIVERPOOL; SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1857. Paterertake to cancel it himself, would witness act harshly towards him? I replied, you may do es von please, and he did so, and I felt satisfied, although I never cancelled the charter. The witness was cross-examined at length by Mr. Almond, and he utterly denied that he was to get anything out of the commission, and that for the sake of Mr. Behrend only, and, not for the sake of the ship or captain, did he consent Co forego the charter. Mr. Almond submitted that the ease was not sustained on two fold ground. Assuming that the charter had remained intact, end that the plaintiffs would be entitled to commission, the charter would be equivecal until the consent of the owner could be bad to the charter. He said the captain was dubious about the carrying capacity of the vessel, and besides the freight was put down at a lamp sum of .C 750, not so much a ton. The captain had doubts, and Mr. Mors had doubts, about the cad: city of the ship, and he (Mr. Almond) argued that when these difficulties arose, and the charter was cancelled, the commission also was cancelled. He cited a case out of the Law Times in support of his argument. His Honour said the present eve seemed to be like anord 7 uary one of a broker selling goods on a guarantee, and in this case the money was clearly earned the moment the charter was signed. He again suggested that the parties ought to arrange the matter. Mr. Acpinall was willing to do so, but Mr. Almond said his client would not consent to any arrangement except a verdict. For the defence the Captaan was examined both in English and Garman, but, in point of fact, his evidence did not alter the case made for the plaintiff, except that he said he imagined the commission was cancelled when the charter was cancelled On cross-examination by Mr. Aspinall, he denied that Vos, Brown and Co were the real defendants in this case, and also that they had given him any guaran tee to pay the verdict if it went against him. He also denied that they had ever promised him any guarantee whatever on the subject. Mr. Brown, of the firm of VO3, Brown and Co., was exatn;ned for the defence, and he said the Captain informed him that it was not his intention to guarantee the ship to carry 425 tone. The vessel brought a -cargo cf oats here, and that was not calculated to give the Captain an idea of what dead weight she could carry. He related a conversation between himself, the Captain, and Mr. Mors, that took place on 'Charge, and said that, to the best of his recollection, the Captain said he did not know what he was doing when he signed the charter party. Mr. Mors was re-eslied, and said, to the best of his recollection and belief, the Captain never said so to him ; and he (witness) repeated thathe had, previous to the eig,nieg of tile charter by the captain, fully explained it to him, both in English and German.—Here it was proposed to send for the gentleman who filled up the charter, and who saw the captan sign it, but before he arrived, Mr. Almond said, on consulting my client, I agree to a verdict for the Vaintiff, for ..-C - 25 ant costs, and to say, on the part of the captain, who is a stranger in Liverpool, and who does not understand the English language very well, that he does not attribute the most remote intention of anything wrong or improper to the proceedings on the part of the highly respectable firm of Bahr, Behrend, and Co., in this case —The verdict foe £23 and costs was then entered for the plaintiffs. His Honor, after the verdict had bran returned, said that he was much pleased that such a case had been brought on for hearing, and regretted that a similar case had not before been brought before the court, as (as it had been prove:) the plaintiff was perfectly justified in bringing such an action.

IN RE LORENZO FRANCESCO ANTONIO MONTEMERLI, " COUNT DE SANDONNINI."—This insolvent, an Italian count, whose appearance was attributed to his attempts to promote an institution for the patronage of Italian art, applied under the Protection Act. Three creditors opposed in person, and Mr. Sargood supported. The insolvent had been known as Signor Lorenzo, an Italian singer, and had been director of the Theatre Royal, Antwerp. His consideration debts were nearly £3,000. The creditors who opposed were called. One was for the rent of a furnished house, and some ladies of title were the referees. The creditor had been paid upwards of £OO, and owed about £3O. Mr. Mills, a grocer, in Marlborough street, Regent -street. complained that after he received an order on the Union Bank, which was not paid, some sperm candles, and other articles of extravagance, were obtained. The third creditor was only £2, and the learned commis sioner suggested that it should be paid. Mr. Commissioner Phillips named a day for the final order, and on the next occasion, the creditors could give further information. The 7th December was appointed for the final order, and the protection was retie: ed.

DUNDALK COMMERCE.-0a Sunday another steamboat, the Independence, a new and very pretty vessel, entered Dundalk Harbour for the first time, having been jest pur chased by the Lew company fur the extension of its Liverpool trade. A large number of the townspeople bad collected at the new quay to see her, and several pieces, including those of the rival company, gave her a grand salute. This makes the fourth steamer now daily engaged in the Liverpool and Dundalk trade.—North British Mail. LIBERTY IN SWEDEN.—During one of the discussions in the Swedish Diet on the royal proposition relative to religious liberty, M. de Kock, the Chancellor of Justice, sid that, if the proposition were not voted, the tribunal would be compelled to pass sentence on seven Swedish women, accused of the crime of having, three years ago, quitted the evangelical church and embraced the Roman Catholic faith. They would, added the minister, be neces sarily condemned to exile. This argument, however, as is proved by the result, had no influence on the decision of the State. CLERICAL WIT.—On Monday last there was a contest in Gloucester for a repres , .-ntation in Convocation, to succeed the late Mr. Levies. There were two candidates, one the Rev. Mr. Rice, son of the Dean of Gloucester, on the Evangelical interest ; the other, the Rev. Sir George Prevost, on the High Church interest ; the latter, after a smart consest was elected—the numbers being, for Sir G. Prevost 111, Mr. Rice 72. A good many clergymen attended from Bristol and the neighbourhood, and some of either party were in a railway carriage returning home after the poll, and good humouredly canvassing the matter, when one, an Evangelical, the Rev. 8., said, working a rule of snhstraction, "72 from 111, and 39 remain; how odd you should win by that number, considering that the Tractarians are no friends to the 39 articles ; " " and you," said the Rev.

VERDICT OF MA NS LAUGHTE a AT THE LATE TNCE EXPLOSION.—The adjourned inquest was held ouThersday upon the bodies of the two girls, named Mary Taylor and Mary Jane Taylor, who were killed on Saturday night last, by the explosion of gunpowder at the house of Mr. James Moore, shopkeeper, the particulars of which have already appeared. The Coroner, C. E. DrifF.eld, Esq., was exceedingly careful in his examination of the witnesses, and delivered a long charge to the jury, at the conclusion of which they considered fur half an hour, and at length returned a verdict of manslaughter against iames Moore. The accused still linaers at the Squirrel public-house, and although not yet yet prono un c e d ou t o f danger by the medical men, it is still thought that he will recover and be able to take his trial. The jury expressed an opinion that more care ought to be taken by the authorities to prevent gunpowder from being exposed for sale in such a manner as to endanger human life. THE RUN—FAcznx.—One gentleman, during the heat of the excitement, went into the Unioa Bank and presented a cheque for £5OO. The teller asked him if he wished gold ? " Gold !" replied he; "No; give me note, and let the fools who are frightened get the gold." Another gentleman rushed into the same bank, in a great state of excitement, with a cheque for £1,400. On being asked if he wished gold, he replied, "Yes." " Well," said the teller, "there is £l,OOO in that bag, and £4OO in this one." The gentleman was so flurried by the readiness with which the demand was granted, that lie lifted up the hag with the £4OO only and walked cif, leaving the £l,OOO on the counter. The teller, on discovering the bag, laid it aside for. the time. Later in the day, the gentleman returned to the bank in great distress, stating he had lost the bag with the £l,OOO, and could not tell whether he had dropped it in the crowd or loft it behind him on leaving the bank. " Ob, you left it or the counter," said the teller, quietly; and if you call to-morrow you will get your thousand pounds."— Glasgow Bulletin. IRISHMEN IN AMERICA.—IMPORTANT.—A. very interesting inquiry was held in Dundalk last week, in virtue of a writ issued by the Court of Chancery of the State of Virginia, United States, and involving personal property to the amount of .220,000 " and upwards." It appears that a Mr. Thomas Byrne, a native of Dundalk, left this country for America in early youth, and resided up to the time of his death in the city of Petersbergh, Virginia, where he carried on the trade of tobacon'st, and where, unmarried and intes'.ate, he died in 1851, p ossesse d of? property to the above amount. The present invesegation, therefore, was to ascertain who are the next of kin to the deceased to be foumd in Ireland. The investigation was held at the American Consulate, Mr. A. Johnston, Solicitor, Dundalk, supporting Mr. M'Court, plaintiff in the suit; and Mr. Leeds, of Belfast, with Mr. Charles M'Mahon, Solicitor, Dundalk, ou the part of Patrick Byrne, the alleged brother of deceased, defendant. We believe this is the first court of inquiry ever held in the town of Dundalk, under a special writ of the Court of Chancery of the United States, involving property to such an extended amount. How much this big fact speaks fey the industry, economy, and perseverance of the poor exiles of Erin.—Newry Examiner. THE BATTLE FOR. THE WORLD'S DOMINION.—A German archaeologist, Dr. Edinger, has, after two years' labour, succeeded in ascertaining the precise p sition of the camps of Antony and Octavius, just before the battle of Actium, which place, now called Azio, is on the Gulf of Arta, in Epirus. The camp of the latter is surrounded by a ceinture of redoubts about 5.1 miles in extent, which were construc ted in stone, faced with earth, and protected by a ditch. At distances of about 1,000 yards, the remains of square towers, surmounted by a platform and protected by a ram. part, have been found, as also kens or masses o f me t a l, o f different forms which served as l Projectilee, together with various arms and accoutrements. In the centre of the camp, on an eminence, were the head quarters of Augustus; they occupied a superficies of about one thousand yards, and were not unlike what are formed in modern times. In advance of the camp were external wo Is, constructed on small eminences, consisting of several small forts, which served apparently more for observation than defence ; they were occupied by detachments forming advanced guard. One of them, higher and stronger than the others, served as a telegraph for communicating with the fleet. In the ruins done of these forts was discovered a tablet in steel, on which are traced signals, which have some affinity with those of the aerial telegraphs. The camp of Antony has not yet been so closely examined as the o:her, but it is not doubted that the remain s o f it w ill b e equally interesting. The town of Actium contains ruins of temples of Neptune and Mars, and of other rem ar k a bl e e difi ces . LORD CANNING TO Ba PITIED.—Lord Canning is in some respects to be pitied. He came to this country when it was, by Lord Dalhousie's acts, ripe for rebellion, and he was surrounded by officials who appear to have been obli vious of the danger with which the State was threatened. When the rebellion fist broke out, ho was induced to believe that it would soon be quelled ; that it was merely a Sepoy mutiny, and not general ; and that the people were not dissatisfied. To this advice he listened, and on it he evidently acted. Those who knew the real state of the conn;ry showed it was a mistake; and unfortunately they have since proved that they were better acquainted with the real sate of the country than the officials. The fact is, that Indian officials are surrounded by a set of natives who say "aye" to whatever they think will please the Burra Sahibs; and hence our secretaries and councillors lire not in a real, but in a fictitiou ; world, and are often led astray because they will not seek for knowledge beyond the region of red tape. In this circle Lord Canning has moved, and in it he still moves. He is in some respects, therefore, I say, to be pitied. His experience of India was limiter, and he might have been excused at first for the errors into which he fell. He is, however, to be blamed for persisting in a course of conduct which has landed us where we are. Had ho thought more for himself, and acted more in the spirit of a British ruler than an ignglish diplornatisa he would have found the country in a different position to what it now is. We have nearly lost our empire and our influence in the East—if not in the world —by his policy; and if we regain t'e empire and our influence, it will be by the adoption of a policy widely different to that which has been pursued by Lard Canning and his advisers.--Letter from, Calcutta.

THE GRAIN TRADE IN LEITH.—We understand that application has been male by some merchants in Leith to have two of the:tea store-houses in the docks set apart for the housing of grain, of which the accumulation has, within the las'. few months, become so large that there is no room for further supplies in any of the regular ware houses. —Edinburgh Express. RUSSIAN TROPHY FOR CA.RNARVON CASTLE.-0110 of the guns Captured from the Russians at Sebastopol has been presented by Lord Panmura to the town of Carnarvon, and has been most appropriately placed in front of the main entrance to the celebrated castle. It is a twenty four plunder, eight feet in length, and weighs upwards of two tons; the carriage is new, having been made at Woolwich. Application is to be made for the gift of another gun, so that one may be mounted on each side of the bridge leading to the gateway. ECLIPSES IN 1858.—During the year 1858, there will be two eclipses of the sun and two of the moon, all of which will be visible in Whitehaven. The first, an annular eclipse-of the sun, will take place on the 15;h March, and will begin on the earth 31 minutes past 9 ann., and end 39 minutes past 2 p.m. There will be a total eclipse of the sun, Sept. 7, 1858. It will begin on the earth 33 minutes past 11 a,m., and end 41 minutes past 4 p.m. There will be two partial eclipses s..f the moon visible hsre—the one on Feb. 27, and the other on Aug. 28. M. Costs, member of the French Institute, and so well known for his experiments relative to pisciculture., has just left Perth, in Scotland, to which country he had been sent by the Emperor Napoleon to inquire into the state of the salmon and trout fisheries. The learned gentleman has visited the different streams in that part of the country and paid special attention to the establishment at Stormont field, on the Tav, for the artificial producion of fish. U. Coste also, during stay, made very miatite inquiries into the nature of the present state of the legislative enactments relative to the breeding of salmon in Scotland and their preservation. CURIOUS MODE .OF DISPOSING OF DEBTS.—At the hearing of the insolvent cases, on Monday, at the Manchester County Court, before Mr. R. Brant, R. Bowker, who described himself as a "corn aril flour dealer and operative joiner and cabinetmaker," came up for hearing, and was opposed. No assets appeared in his schedule; but the insolvent admitted that hs had sold debts amounting to £l3O to a Mr. Crowther, described as an agent, for £2O. The learned couns,l soon elicited from the insolvent that debts amounting to £l6O had been included in the sale, and was proceeding to add to this amount, when he was stopped by the judge, who said he was perfectly satisfied with the nature of the transaction between the insolvent and Crowther, and at once dismissed the petilion.—Manekester Guarchan.

The name " William Shakspere" occurs in a certificate of the names and arms of trained seldiers—in the hundred of Birlich way, in the comfy of Warwick—uneLr the hand of Sir Faulk Greville (" Friend to Sir Phillip Sydney"),'Sir Edward Greville and Thomas Spencer. Was our William Shakspere a soldier? Why not? Johnson was a soldier, and had slain his man. Donne had served in the Low Countries ? Why not Shakspere iu arms ? At all events here is a field for inquiry and speculation. The date is Sept. 22, 1605, the year of the Gunpowder Plat, and the lists were possibly prspared through instructions issued by Cecil in consequence of secret information as to the working of the plot in Warwickshire—the proposed head-quarters of the insurrectien.—State Papers, edited by Mary A 2121 Everett Green. WHAT Loan PALMERST3N DIDN'T SAY AT THE BANQUET. —The matter on whieli the public would really have cared to hear Lord Palmerston at this juncture, is precisely that on which he didn't let fall a syllable, viz., the commercial distress and monetary disorganisation. Oa that head, the public could ttst the worth of his words, for the state of the case is petent to all. But he took care to preserve a complete silence, though at the moment many of the city hearers, and probably he himself, were well aware that the knowledge was speeding through the land of the failure of the ,Western Bank of Scotland, the premonitory symptoms of similar collapses in various other quarters, and in itself indicating something below the surface perhaps more alarming than anything else that has hitherto appeared.—Birminghant Journal. PUNISHMENT OP A CARELESS POINTSMAN.—In the Edinburgh Curt of Justiciary, on Tuesday, John Litto, the pointsman on the Peebles Rtilway, who had been convicted on the previous day of culpable violation of his duty, by signalling to the driver of a train on the 31st July to advance, while he had neglected to shift the paints, by which a number of the passengers were cut and injured, was brought up for sentence. The Lord Justice Clerk, after pointing. out the responsibility resting upon individuals is Latto's situation, and the consequent aggra vation of any neglect of duty by them, stated that hat for the excellent character which he had previously borne he would have felt it his duty to sentence him to a long period of penal servitude ; and even taking that favour ab'e circumstance into consideration, the lightest sentence which the court felt it its duty to pronounce was imprison ment for two years. E B aOID ERY FOR ITII E WeDDING OF TIIE PRINCESS ROYAL. —The Shanballytnore Female Industrial School, which was established about the time of the agricultural distress by 11:1s. Welstead, of Ballytownreche, his received a special mark of royal favour, Mrs. Weistead having been honoured by her Majesty with a command to supply two collars and two pairs of embroidered sleeves for the approaching wedding- of the Princess Royal. The school, of which Mrs. Weletoad is the patron, has conferred con siderable benedt on many of the families of the neighbour hood, and has assumed a high position among such establishments for the superior taste sand originality of the patterns, as well as the exquisite fi iish of the work. It is understood that her MPjesty some time since saw at court some of the embroidered work produced in the Shanlialls more school, and was so high!y pleased with the design and workmanship that she immediately ordered a supply for the nuptials cf the Princess Royal. 'I his is no small honour to the Shanbaltymore school, and has created a great degree of commendable pride and gratula tion amongst the poor girls, the produce of whose fingers has received so high a compliment. —Cork Constitution. BOYS' CLOTHING MArE Wing GREAT TAITE AT LEWIS and aIIPANY'S, _Rang4 , 4ll street. BERKSHIRE. Irr. Ruddketone, who appeared on behalf of Mrs., Emily articles Cherry, o s said i d t h t e h a p t e l a a c d e y a w g a a s i n i s n t c h o e u r r t h . u a s nd ba n d d e s . ire e M l 5, s. exhibit Cherry was then called forward and took an oath as to the truth of the statements in the articles which were read by one of the masters. They were substantially saa follow . :—She married the Reverend Henry Curtis Cheafry, of Burghfield Rectory, in Berkshire, on the 20th of August, 1853, and from that moment she was a miserrable woman, as he commenced a system of insult and unkind treatment towards her. On the 28th of September, 1855, she left the rectory with his consent, and three weeks afterwards ho called upon her and expressed. his determination never to ask her to return. On Sunday, August 31st., 1853, durins, the evening service, he walked into St. Giles's Church,' where she was, and disturbed the congregation by his excited manner, and by staring into her pew. At the end of the service, and before the congregation had risen from their knees, lie rushed across the church. seized her by the arm, and dragged her up the aisle into the vestry, and add that was nothing to what he meant to do. She then stated that on the 8-1 of September, 1853, Mr. Cherry: his gardener, end a policeman entered her residence while she was at breakfast, violently dragged her into the pessage, thrust her into a carriage, and conveyed her to the rectory, where she was kept a close prisoner. She suffered great pain from the force used, and endured great mental suffering while thus confined. Having eventually escaped, she remained concealed for a conside: able time, but was kept in a constant state of terror and alarm by reason of a belief that he was searching for her, and that he had declared he would bring her back at any cost. On the 8:h of September, 185 G, she was informed and believed that he had employed a person named Field, a detective officer, to discover her abode. Subsequently she received the following letter from her husband : " For my wife Cherry atone. " Burghfield Rect or y, S ep t 6 . 1857 . My dearest have reason to know that your sister not only withholds from you what she knows is now going on for ycur compulsory removal to me, but that unless it suits her purpose you do not receive nor see half the letters I forward to you through her. Oh what an awful responsibility rests upon her. When will you be no . longer deceived ? Can you doubt I can lay hold of you any moment ? Defy me, and, by the living God, I name where you are and have been the last two days ? What did I marry you for ? You separate from me. A man does not thus bind himself to be a woman's fool. What power have you to help yourself? Want have I not yet done to prove my love for you? and what will I not yet do to have yon with me ? Your silly nephew refers to the the abduction in September last. Why, I will have a dozen more if nece , sary, and then I shall be perfectly jus tified in law. As God is my witness I will have you with me ere many days. Why not, then, accept the terms I have proposed through Mrs. Hen'y this day, to you You are at liberty to tell your silly adviser that I laugh at her nonsense. For God's sake be wise at last, and meet me. You shall never repent that you trusted a loving, generous, it flexible, (and God, not man-fearing) husband. —Yours, till death, "HENRY C CHERRY." The articles concluded by a prayer that the court would forthwith require the Rev. H. C. Cherry to keep the peace towards the exhibitant. Lord Campbell did not think the letter threatened any personal violence.—Mr. Huddleshona said the husband threatened he would have a dozen abductions, if necessary, an i that he would have his wife with him ere many days.--Mr. Justice Coleridge did not see that there was any vioence or cruelty to her person. He brought her back to his house and she stayed there an indefinite time. She did not say how long, and she di l not specify a single instance of violence during she wh le of that period, when she was entirely in his power.—Mr. Justice Wightman : What is the personal violence threat toned ? - Mr. Huddlestone : The renewal of the abduction. —Mr. Justice Wightman : There may be an abduction without personal violence —Lord Campbell-: A husband is not entitled to use violence in seizing the person of his wife, for the purpose of making her a prisoner or bringing her to the marital abode. There is a proper court to apply to for the restitution of conjugal rights, but the husband cannot take the law into his own hands, and deprive his wife of liberty. A threat to repeat what he has done, I think, would be enough to warrant the interference of the court. —Mr. Huddlestone : The lady states in the articles that in con sequence of her husband's and the policeman's outrage, she was unable to dress herself for ten days —Lord Camp bell : I am of opinion that he does threaten a repetition of that, and the wife is entitled to the protection she prays. Mr. Justice Coleridge thought the articles were of an un satisfecto:y nature, because the g eater part of the statements were on information and belief, and could not therefore be directly contradicted. It also did not appear that the husband had used any personal violence, and he thought it would be going a great way to suppose that she was in any fear of her life ; but he did not deny prima facie that a threat to repeat what topic place on her abduction might justify the wife in seeking the protection of the law. On the whole he agreed with Lord Campbell that an attachment should issue.—Mr. Justice Wigh'man also thought the lady was entitled to the assistance of tte court. He relied mainly on the pansage in the letter which threatened in the strongest terms that the husband would compel her by force to return home.—Attachment issued accordingly. A SINGULAR FLIGIII% At the Lambeth Police-court, Thursday, Mary Smith, a smartly-dressed young woman, 22 years of age, was brought before Mr. Norton on the following charge:— Mr. Cook, the proprietor of the Rod Cross Inn, at Keston, Kent, said that about 15 mouths since the prisoner en tered his service, and remained in it until Tuesday morning last, when in coming down stai-s he missed both her and his nephew, a boy ten years of age, from his house. He drove without delay to the Beckenham Railway Station, in the hope of hearing some tidings of them, but was disappointed in that hope, and he learned nothing whatever about them until the Wednesday night, when a neighbour of his informed him that on the morning he had accidentally met his nephew in the neighbourhood of Peckham He, in censequenee, came to town on that morning, and, having traced the pri'oner and th?t,boy to the house of a Mrs. Lawrence, he gave the former into custody. In reply to the questions of the magistrate, the wituese said the prisoner had behaved herself very well while is his sorvice, bat had lately given herseif up a good deal to reading the " trashy" publications of the day, and also got dresses and other things on credit from the " tally men" or bakers, wh o came to his house. She had not expressed the slightest dissatisfaction with her situation, nor had she given the slightest notice of her intention to leave. The prisoner, is reply to the charge, said that she had lately become unhappy in her mind, and her mother's nephew becoming unhappy also, they had agreed on Monday night last to start at an early hour in the morning for to .sn. 03 the following morning., between one and two o'clock, Mister Cooke came into her room, and said he was dressed and ready to start. They then made their way out of the bou3e, while all the other inmates were asleep. They walked to town to the house of a respeeehle person she knew, and her intention was to provide th e b oy with a place and go to service herself. The led alluded to was sworn, and his account of the somewhat roneantic affair did rot diffee. in any important particular from that of the prisoner. Mr. Cooke here said, that some of tho articles of wearing apparel taken away by his nephew were missing, and the prisoner acknowledged she had panned them. The pri soner was remanded for a week, and Mr. Cooke kindly undertook, rather than that she should lose her characer, to take her back into his service at the end of that time.

THE FRIEDULENT CREDITOR.—IIe is an oily man, who has made many bad bcbts during his commercial life, and who always seems to extract nourishment from them. He has generally been ♦ery badly treated by the fraudulent debtor, but while the latter has scarcely a bad to lie down upon, the fraudulent creditor manages to keep a good b❑lance at his banker's. He seldom attends, and dill never take the chair at a meeting of creditors. When an arrangement is proposed, he always dec:ines, at present, to come in, He has scruples and objections, and he takes time to consider. He likes to be treated with individually. God forbid that he should be the means of carrying the affair to the Bankruptcy C ,, urt, and injuring others; bat be does not think there has been a fair statement rendered, and he would rather lose the whole of his debt—ill as he can afford it—than accept a dividend less tha❑ the estate ought to pay. Ile holds out firmly, and when others get ten shillings, he gets fifteen ; when others get fifteen, he gets twenty. Failing this, he stands over until the debtor begins trade again, aed then he advances his claim upon ' the new estate to the injury of the new creditors. He is one of the most olestructive and dishonest men in trade, and yet who would refuse his accep'anc e for £5,000? It may be that the twenty shillings in the peuud, with which the hill will be paid, will be very dirty sbillings—shillings that ought to have been in the pockets of other people, but they fulfil the commercial requirements as to weight, and the code of trading , marality exacts no other condition.— Dickens' .11:9itsehold Words.
