JENNINGS v. THE SCREW SHIP COMPANY.

On Saturday a ease of great importance to the
shipping interest of England came before Mr. Itylaud, who
presides at the Sheriff's County Court, Guildhall. The case
is, per se, a simple one; but a great principle with respect
to the construction of an act of parliament is involved. We
may premise that by what was considered the custom of the
trade, engineers and firemen on board steam-vessels going
foreign voyages are entitled to a percentage or cummussion
on &limas shipped at foreign stations in the course of the
voyage. To this charge, which amounts to and is claimed at
Is. per ton upon all coals shipped during the voyage, whe-
ther put on board by the labours of the engineers and fire-
men, by the crew of the vessel, or by any other persons, great
objections were made by the great steam companies, who
considered that all they ought to pay was the wages that
were agreed upon, and in order to test this question, it
was resolved by the men that one of their own
members should bring an action. An action was accord-
ingly brought by a man of the name of George Jennings, a
fireman on board the Mauritius steamer, which belongs to
the General Screw Ship Company. It appears that this
Teasel sailed from Southampton under the command of Ben-
jamin James Elder, and was bound for Calcutta, and that
during the voyage she took in coals at St. Vincent, the
Cape of Good Hope, the Mauritius, Ceylon, Madras, and
Calcutta, and on her homeward voyage took in coals at
Colon, the Mauritius' Cape of Good Hope, St. Helena, and
St. Vincent. By the plaintiff, as representative of the
engineers and firemen, it was contended that on every ton
of coals taken in at foreign stations they were entitled to Is.
per ton. Tho number of tons taken during the outward
and homeward voyage was 4,575, the amount on which. at
Is. per ton, would be 2281. 155., of which sum 33/. is. had
been paid to the seamen, and the remaining sum of
1951. Ils. was claimed by the engineers and firemen.
Mr. Smith, attorney for the plaintiff; stated that the plain-
tiff claimed 101. Is. as his share, with 19 others, of the sum
of 1951. Ils. According to the newel arrangements of the
trade, the engineers and firemen were entitled to Is. on
coals shipped et foreign ports, whether they had assisted in
getting the teals into the ship or not.
Mr. Sleigh contended, on the other side, that the plaintiff
should be noosuited. The claim was not tenable, because
a release of ail claims due to the plaintiff had been given by
himself. He was engaged at 41. a month, with a special
reservation that it case of his giving a release he should be
bound to abide by it. Upon returning to Southampton he
gave that release, and he contended that the release being
in conformity with the 93th section of the act of parlia-
ment, the plaintiff had no further claim against the cora-
Pan After
a great deal of discussion, the Judge (Mr. Ryland)
decided that the act of parliament left him uo discretion,
and the su.nmons must be dismissed.
By this decision, a question affecting several thousands
a year has for the present bees set at rest.

This theatre opened for the season last night,
under a new management, and with a new company.
Mr. Wallach, the present lessee and manager, has
had a pretty long experience of the stage, and he has
assembled around him a dramatic corps which, if we
may judge from a single aighes performance, is
capable of doing its work earnestly and efficiently.
Mr. Morton's comedy, The Cure for the Heartache,
was selected as the opening piece, and although it
might not be easy to point out any striking bril-
liancy in its setting, it would be unjust not to say
that it shone with a steady and tempered light.
The new corps includes Mr. G. Cooke, Mr. H. Van-
denhoff, Mr. Shalders, Mr. Edgar, Mr. Bender, Mrs.
W. Robertson, Miss E. Horton, Miss F. Garthwaite
—all of whom contributed their share of talent to
the success with which the piece was received. After
the comedy, the company sang the National Anthem,
which was followed by 3lr. Ylanche's extravaganza,
The Fair One with Golden Locke, and the musical
faros of the Swiss Cintage. The house last night
was a full one, a circumstance which we trust may
be frequently encored by the great western popula-
tion.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONB.—YzeTuDAY.
The October quarter session of the qa for the county
of Middlesex commenced this at the Sessions
House, Clerkeawell, before Mr. fierjeaA Adams, the as-
sistant Judge, and Mr. Witham. There were 76 prisoners
for trial-6S fir felony, and 12 for misdemeanor.
'llse Assistant Judge briefly charged the grand jury.
Charles Waller, 23, omnibus conductor, pleaded guilty to
an indictment in which he was charged with having felo-
niously embezzled the several awls of one shilling, one
shilling and five pence, and eight pram, received by him for
and on account of John Wilma wad mother, his employers.
Mr. Bodkin, on the poet ef Me greseentlon, stated that
the prosecutors were the prophase, d the " Favourite "
omnibuses, and had about 300 as in their employ.
During the day each omnibus perbeneed so many journeys ;
and it appeared from • calculation which he held inbie
hand that If 6d. per journey wan purloined hy the con-
ductor the loss to the prosecutors midi amount in the year
to no less than 6,7001. The planer as the bar had
been in their service as a imminetor, and had
pleaded guilty to three Melina sharps of having
defrauded them of fazes be bed resolved. Conductors in
the employ of Messrs. Wilson were paid four shillings per

of emigrating to Australis. Whilst taking dinner at an
eating-hones he got bee mawinstion with a young man to
whom he casuasidested his intention of emigrating, and
the young man Milemed him that he was also about to
proceed to the saile deslination—Australia, and it was ar-
ranged that they should go to Liverpool together next
morning. At the lesnir man's request they went to a
stabile-hero and e.Dsd for beer, and as they were drinking
it the prisoner entered, and the young man informed him
that his companion and himself were about to leave this
country for Australia. The prisoner observed that be
thought it was the best thing a young man could do nowa-
days, and in • few minutes they were all three in a deep
conversation on the subject of emigration. The prisoner
said he had just come home from the colonies in the Sarah
Sands to look after some property which had been left him
I. Worcestershire, but he found that his money commanded
so low a rate of interest at home, that he had deter-
mined to invest a little of it at Geelong, where the in-
terest would be considerable, and he wished he could
meet with some young fellow going out there, with whom
he could trust 1001., and who would look out for:a store for
him at Geelong. To show that this was not mere bout
the prisoner pulled out a piece of paper, which be alleged
was • 601. note, and he showed the prosecutor this word
" fifty " in the corner of it, and • massive ring, which he
add was Wade from the very first " nugget " he get at the
"effolnes." The bait took effectually. It wee ete.td

and asked the prosecutor to WaNapany MS. Me pdommit
remarked that they would return es a maw of mem. The
young man declared be would return immediately, and was
about to leave when he turned round, pedied out his pocket
beck, and threw it into the prisoner's heit, as muck as to
eft " There take that, it is all I poems% and therefore
you may rest perfectly assured that I shall return."
Before depositing it in the hat he epeaad it and showed
the prosecutor its contents, which enema to be gold or
imitation gold coin, and the prossenter, anxious to show
his good faith in an equal degree, unhesitatingly pulled out
his purse, which contained 231.105. in gold, and left it
with the prisoner as security foe his return. He and the
young man went out ; the prosecutor went into a shop to
get • stamp—when he came out his companion was gone,
and when he got back to the public-house he found to his
dismay that the prisoner, the pocket-book, and the purse
were gone too. Passing through the Minories last Saturday
fortnight the prosecutor happened to see the prisoner, and
he gave hiss into custody. The " young man " had not
since beau found, nor had any of the money been recovered.
The prosecutor positively identified the prisoner.
The Jury found him Guilty.
The Assistant-Judge said there could be no doubt that
the prisoner was • regular depredator, and that the "young
man " was his accomplice. He sentenced him to be kept in
penal servitude for four years.

The charge entered on the polies-sheet was, that the
defendants were found in a common gambling-how, No.
64, St. James's-street, for an unlawful purpose. The
dame was preferred by Superintendent O'Brien of the C
division. The majority of the defendants were young seen
under 25 years of age.
Mr. O'Brien stated, that at two o'clock ea Sun-
day morning he entered the house No. 64, St. James's-
street, with another constable and after peeing
1 through two doors, they entered a purge and broke
down the fastening of another door and then reached
a fourth door. They tried that, but it was too strong.
It was bolted inside two bolts and two chains,
and ether fastenings which were very secure. They
made a hole through the wall. Soya after the doors
were thrown open by the doorkeeper, when they proceeded
up stairs, and found all the defendants, and another person
who does not appear. They found them on the first floor,
some having supper, and some having ems in their bands.
He found anotherdoor in that:room, strongly barred. He had
all the persons searched, but found nothing relative to gam-
bling on them. I produced the warrant, signed by Sir
Richard Mayne.
The Magistrate—ls that the case ?
Mr. O'Brien—Yes.

Tee 1[ tnq—Tbo defendants are discharged.
Mr. Baltine attended on the part of the defendants,
many of whom belonged to noble families; but as their
real name. did not transpire, we only Site those they
thought proper to ulnae.

The Outlasts, Hadfield, arrived in this port yester-
day, from St. John's, New Brunswick, bringing the in-
telligence of a melancholy disaster to the emigrant ship
Isaac Wright, Capt. Abeel, which sailed from this port on
the 20th ult. The Isaac Wright had on board 600 steerage
and ten cabin passengers, composed chiefly of German
and Irish emigrants. For several days after her departure
she experienced very rough weather and heavy hail storms,
with a dense fog. However, everything got on well until
the evening of the 27th nit., when she was found to be close
to land. The captain was ea deck at the time, and called to
the man at the wheel to put the ship about, but it was
too late, for as she was wearing round, her
stern struck oa a rock, unshipped her rudder,
and caused her to make water rapidly. They got her into
deep water, but as it was impossible to control her move-
ments, all sails were reefed, and all hands took to this
pumps. She remained in this position with signals of dis-
tress flying, and although several mamas hove is sight,
non* of them answered the signals, until the Oncasta bore
down to her. On being asked where he had struck, Capt.
Abeel said he believed it was Cape Clear, but Captain Had-
field told him that 'mould sot be, as he was only forty miles
off Cork, and thirty-four off the Howl of Kinsale. Upon
consulting together, it was agreed that the Oncasta should
make all sail here and send a steamer to her assistance,
Captain Abeel being of opinion that he would be able to
keep her •11,.at in the meantime. Captain Hadfield took
off the cabin passengers, ten in number. When the
Oncost& left the Isaac Wright she was very deep, the
water being up to her port boles. The passengers
speak in the highest terms of the conduct of Captain Abeel
and his crew, stating their belief that the former had not
slept from the period the steam tag left the Isaac Wright
to the period of their leaving in the Oacasta. They also
spoke in the warmest manner of the kindness of Captain
Hadfield and his wife Four deaths from natural causes
bad occurred in the Isaac Wright. Last night, Captain
Dixon, of the Fidelia (belonging to the same line of packet
ships, Brothers), left this port in the steam tug
Constitution, in search of the unfortunate ship, with a view
of rendering assistance.
Sines writing the above a communication has been posted
in the Exchange and underwriters' rooms here, telegraphed
by the Semaphore from Holyhead, stating that a huge
ship, apparently an American liner, was off that port, in-
ward hound, at 11.30 cm. She appeared to be in wails of
assistance, and • steam tug had just arrived alongside.
Her nazis could not be distinguished, she being fardistant
to the W.S.W.

BSCAPB FROM PRISON.

It will be recollected, says the New York Tribune,
that about three weeks ago a convict, named James Doan,
escaped in au ingenious manner from the Sing Sing Prison.
Ile made his way under water from the prison to a point
about a mile distant, where he went on shore, and could
not afterwards be found by the officers of the prison or the
authorities. He dill this by means of a water-proof pipe,
the lower end of which he held in his mouth, while the
upper end Iris joined to a small beg of air which looked
like a duck, and floated upon the surface of the; water. By
this means he breathed while he made his way slowly
under water. Efforts were made by the prison officers to
capture him, but without avail.
Learning that a number of prisoners were aware of the
escape of Dunn, and were planning for their own escape,
the officer of the prison resorted to a ruse to give the im.
pre lion that he was caught, and was killed in the attempt
to take him. A funeral took place at the prison, and a
coffin filled with shavings, said to contain Dunn's body,
was d, for the purpose of intimidating the prisoaers.
Citizens of Sing Bing, hearing of this, bad the coroner to
bold an inveetigati in, which brought the deception to light.
Information was recently gained at the prison that Dune
had been seen in the upper part of this city. On Frida
evening. Captain Andrews, warden of tbc prison, C. Cl.
Childs, clerk of the prison, and keepers Washburn and
Baker, came to the city, and having ascertained the resi-
dence of Dunn's relatives, watched the houre. At 8 o'clock
en Saturday morning, finding the doors locked, they burst
them in to search for Dunn. Meantime Dunn leaped trout
the window of the second story and ran, but was overtaken
about two blocks distant trout this house. He had a pistol in
his hscid when captured. He was taken back to Sing
Sing, to finish his term of imprisonment.
