JUDGES' CHAMBERS.
(Bence arr. Junco Kiniams.)
BUNN O. LIND.—JENNY LIND.—In this action, brought
by the lessee of Drury-lane Theatre, against the celebrated
MdUe. Jenny Lind, for an alleged breach of an engagement,
two summonses taken out on the part of the defendant came
on for hearing before his lordship in the course of the after-
noon.—Mr. Carrie was counsel for the defendant, and Mr.
Lewis appeared for the plaintiff.—lt will be remembered
that, on the 17th of June last, Mr. Justice Coleridge made
an order for a commission to examine witaesses abroad in
this matter, which was reported on the day following, and it
was then stated that the action was net expected to come on
before the sittings after Hilary Term next. The summons
called upon the plaintiff to show cause why the defendant
should not be at liberty to examine sir& voce the witnesses.
and Mr. Justice Williams made an order to that effect—Mr.
Lewis then proceeded with the second summons. It was in
his opinion a very ridiculous one, and be would read it to his
lordship. It was to show cause "why the plaintiff, having
threatened to hold the defendant to bail, should not forth-
with make any intended application for bail or security, the
defendant being about temporarily to be absent from this
country, and in default thereof that he be barred from apply-
ing for bail or security in this cause." He had never before
heard of such a summons, and he would submit to his lord
ship that it could not be entertained for a single moment.—
Mr. Currie said he apprehended that the summons could be
entertained. The object of the application was to prevent
the young lady, the defendant, from being arrested as she
was about to set her foot on the steam-vessel to leave this
country.—Mr. Lewis remarked that it was quite wrong.
Why did not the parties if they thought so, at once put in
bail ?—His Lordship said the matter had been brought be-
fore him on a former day by Mr. Hoggins.—Mr. Lewis :
And Mr. Corrie now appears to induce your lordship to
make such an order. It is quite ridiculous.—Mr. Justice
Williams intimated that be could not grant the application.
—Mr. Corrie urged the matter on his lordship as one of some
' consideration to the defendant. It was wished to prevent
any annoyance to her, which might be shown by any ill-
feeling ou the part of the plaintiff. If it was intended to
make any application for bail it should be made at
once, and not delayed until the party was about to
get on board a steamer.—Mr. Lewis said no applica-
tion had been made, and the plaintiff was called
upon to let it be known whether he intended to apply.—
Mr. Justice Williams observed that it was a very novel appli-
cation.—Mr. Jennings : It is a novel case, my lord. We have
been waiting 9 months to Le arrested.—Mr. Lewis declared that
his lordship had no power to interfere. Besides, he might
go to the Lord Chancellor without an applicution tea judge at
chambers.—Mr. Justice Williams said he had discussed the
matter with Mr. Hoggina. The defendant could give bail.—
Mr. Lewis : That is all we want.—Mr. Corrie repeated his
observations, that the object was to annoy the defendant.—
His lordship said the summons must be dismissed.—Mr.
Lewis salted for costs, which application was opposed by Mr.
Jennings.—Justioe Williams: Well, I shall only give Gs. Bd.
—His lordship was understood to say that there had never
been such an order made as the one asked for.—Mr. Corte:
There never was such a case, my lord—Mr. Jennings ob-
served that the plaintiff had threatened to apply to the Lord
Chancellor for a snit ne exeat regno.—Mr. Lewis said that
they hail discussed the matter in order to ascertain whether
it was intended to make an application for bail.—His lord-
ship dismissed the summons, with 6s. Bd. coats.

CHARGE OR FaNIZZLEMENT.—T. Johnson, a town tra-
veller in the employ of Masers. Cockett and Redman, ribbon
warehousemen, Alderman bury, .4. charged with embezzling
various sums of money to a large amount. The peewee
was allowed 21 per cent. commission on all goods be add.
When he received any money it was his duty to pay it into
the heeds of Mr. Parkes, their clerk. He had been in Mr.
Cabal% service before that gentleman entered into his
presedperheinhip, but since then he had no authority to
receive meal for the firm, although previously he used to
do isoo br. Cockett's account. On the 20th of March and
the list af April he received two sums of money—one of 101.
sod the War 301.—from a customer named Jones, which he
kr. There were also other sows of money which
tribrid reseived for Mr. Cockett before the partnership,
whisk he had never acoonnted for, and which amounted to
stove IDOL The receipt for one amount was produced.—
Alderman Wood remanded the prisoner until Tuesday.
ANOTHER Case or Emnazztaxzeir.—J. Wolters, a
clerk in the employ of Mr. J. Da Salve, of Bride-lane,
Fleet-street, was charged with embezzling two sums of

money, one for Si. odd, and the other for 141. 12e. 6d. The
latter sum he received from Messrs. Willoughby and Co.,
chemists, in Bishopegateatreet, on the 10th of Ju, and told
his master on Monday last that it had not been paid. The
receipt was produced ; and as there were several other cases
against him. Alderman Wood remanded him for one week.
LAMBETH.—CHAttOn OP MANSLAUGHTER.— T. A. Olds,
a bricklayer, against whom a coroner's jury had returned a
verdict of manslaughter, was finally examined, charged with
having caused the death of his wife, Mary Olds. The evi-
dence adduced was much stronger than that given before
the coroner, and the depositions of the several witnesses hey-
ing been taken, the prisoner was fully committed for trial.
OMNIBUS MOPT/ANISIL— W. SHHGA and E. Claridge, the
latter the driver ani the former a conductor of a Green-
wich omnibus, were charged with attempting to extort more
than their fare. Mr. Thomas deposed that on tho night of
Thursday week he and Mrs. Thomas went is the om-
nibus in charge of the defendants to the Old Kent-road. On
getting out he offered a shilling to Smith, who said that
he must have another, as the fare was a shilling each.
Witness told him he never paid more than sixpence for the
distance, and, handing him his card, said that if his
fax was more he knew hew to recover it —Smith replied
that the card was no use to him, that he must have another
shilling, and put himself in a fighting attitude.—Witness re-
' quested to see the number of his badge, to which Smith only
replied with an oath, and said that he should not show it
until he got hie fare. All this time the driver Claridge kept
calling out " Why don't you pay the man his fare, von
swindler ?" Smith not only prevented his going on but
touched him with his hand on the breast, and having no
doubt of his intention to proceed to violence witness called
out " Police." Smith then jumped behind the omnibus,
and calling out "Cut away, Ned," the vehicle was driven
off at a furious pace. Mr. Thomas tried to follow it, but was
unable, and a policeman gave him the names of the driver
and conductor.—Mr. Elliott adjudged Smith to pay a
penalty of 31. for assaulting the complainant, or thirty days'
imprisonment, and for using bad language and refusing to
show his badge, twenty shillings, or twenty days' imprison-
ment. Claridge was sentenced to pay forty shillings tor the
use of improper language, or in default to twenty days'

MONEY MARKET.

T H VRBDAY EVENING.

An expectation prevailed this morning, and reports
to the effect were current, indeed, in respectable quar-
ters, that a reduction in the rate of interest would be
determined upon in the Bank-parlour on this, the
usual board day. Much anxiety was consequently
displayed to obtain the earliest confirmation of die fact,
and a considerable number of persons were in waiting
about the establishment for the appearance of the
notice posted up on such occasions. None, however,
was exhibited, but it was intimated that the di-
rectors were prepared to receive applications
for loans for short periods on stocks and exche-
per-bills, on which 5 per cent. only would be
charged. It is to be observed that advances on such
securities are generally more extensively accorded a
short time before the advent of dividend days, and
are convenient for the more equable distribution of
the circulation, which else would accumulate too
largely in the Bank by the payments from the col-
lectors on exchequer account of taxes and duties.
Although it was only publicly made known to-day
that loans would be made on the reduced terms, con-
fined to the securities indicated, yet it was
well known, also, that daring the past and
the present week the Bank had already been
dispensing such accommodation at the same easier
rate to the amount, it is believed, of about one mil-'
lion sterling. As the minimum rate of discount re-
mains unaltered, the commercial interests will be
little, if at all, served by this movement of the Bank.
It has strangely resulted to-day, after so much hesi-
tation, and the anxious suspense of days, concluding,
apparently with a final refusal yesterday, that Messrs.
Overend, Gurney, and Co., have at length consented
this day to honour the mass of American bills drawn
upon them. This is a fact of great importance
under actual circumstances, for the dishonour
of paper, bearing American names of such high
claims to credit, could scarcely fail of lead-
ing to mach confusion and discredit both here
and on the other side of the water. It is stated that
late last evening s conference took place at Messrs.
Overend, Gurney, and Co.'s house of business, with
certain mercantile parties of high consideration,
friends and correspondents of the New York firm, who
are the drawers of the bills in question. In order to
protect the signature and the credit of that firm, one of
the parties, who had largely interfered previously on
its behalf for other bills upon houses recently declared
in insolvency, offered a guarantee of the bills lying
over for 20,0001., and the two other parties for
10,000/. each. The extent of the guarantee was not
deemed sufficient, and the conference broke up there-
fore without result. It is understood that to-day the
joint guarantee has been carried to 48,000!., upon
which the bills standing over were admitted to
acceptance.
The satisfactory settlement of this affair, coupled
with the slight inclination of the Bank towards a
. . .

more liberal spirit of accommodation, had the effect
of improving the tone of public securities. The assu-
rance, indeed, of tindirg assistance at the Bank is
loans on stockand other public values, would natu-
rally tend to encourage parties who are holding, or
speculating, for higher prices. Consols from 871 for
account, at which done, and for some time quoted,
advanced to, and left off at, 881- tot, and for money
at 871 to Z. Reduced Threes, 871 to 1. Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents., 891 to 1. Long Annuities, 9
to 1-16. Exchequer Bills, 2s. to ss. premium. India
Bonds, Is. to 4s. discount. Bank Stock, 1931 to 71.
India Stock, 241. to 3.

It is a angular evidence of the indisposition to
traffic in foreign stocks that not half-a•dozen bargains
were reported in the market. The few dealings that
took place were chiefly in Dutch. The Two-and-a-
Half per Cent& remain at 551 to 6; ; the FOLDS at
88; to 91. Spanish Fives were called 191 to 20.1 ;
the Threes, 29; to 301. Mexican, 18f to 19. No
business took place in other foreign securities.
