bled in a room on the first floor, at • cafe, kept by a
man named Muller, at the comer of the Rue St. An-
toine and the Hue St. Paul, to give a welcome to
some of their comrades. About halt-pest nitre, their
heads being heated with wine, they comm• noel sing-
ing and %atoning political Mee. A number of per-
ms soon collected below listening to what weeping
roe, when suddenly one of the officers threw open the
window, and cried out" Vivo Henry V. r His friends
followed and utterred the tame cry, some
adding
"A A bas le President," and others, " Vire Isa angle
The crowd appeared exceedingly agitated, and puma-
ass cries broke oat from it ot Vire la Republique !"
The scene then became tumultuous, each party utter-
ing its own cries, when the police, being informed of
what was passing, arrived is strong force, and the
officers were arrested. They were taken, to the
number of nine, to a place of confinement. A ru-
mour pr.vailed amongst the crowd that a plot had
been discovered, and it was thought advisable
to post a number of police agents all night before the
café. Yesterday an tequiry was commenced re-
lative to the affair. We learn that the number
of officers present at this banquet was thirty, and
that when the arrests were merle, so great was the
exasperation of the workmen who had assembled,
that it was with geest difficulty the sergens do vine
could protect their prisoners from personal violence.
Several of the officers escaped by the roofs of the ad-
joining houses.

" We announced from the Courrioi de la Somme'
eariths National, "that M. Respell, nen., confthed
at Doullens, was seriously ill, and was about to be
removed to the hospital of Amiens. Vs e have re-
ceived from M. Rasped, jun., a letter, contradictint
in the fullest manner that statement. The health of
my father' mys he, has hitherto resisted severities
worthy of another age; and if my father were ill he
would ask for no other favour than to receive thecaee
of his family.'"
All the friends of M. de Rayneval declare that
they feel sure he will not accept of the office
of Minister of Foreign Affairs. It is rumoured to-
day that the Prince de la Moskowa will be offered
the place; but this is not thought likely. Court
Flabault is also spoken of. There could not be a
better appointment, nor one more likely to give
satisfaction to the country.
The following official communication has been
sent from the Elyse(' to the newspapers :
" Certain journals have the habit of endeavouring
to lead public opinion astray, by commenting with
bad faith on the acts of the Govern-
ment, or by inventing a quantity of news
that is completely false. 'rhos all the rumours circu-
lated with respect to the offers of portfolios made to
different persons, with the exception of those who
are actually ministers, by the President of the Re-
public, or in his name, are totally without foundation.
We are anlorised to declare this in a formal
manner.
Last evening the president bad his usual weekly
reception at the Elyse° ; it was much crowded.
Among those present was the president's uncle,
Jerome Bonaparte, the ex-King of Westphalia, who
has not been at the Elyse* but once since the elec-
tion in December. Napoleon Bonaparte was not
present, but it is said that a reconciliation between
them is about to take place. All the other mem-
bers of the Bonaparte family were at the party, as
well as Prince Paul of Wurtemberg. The greater
portion of the carps diplowtaitque attended. Lord
Normanby and Prince Kallimanchi had lone carver-
rations with the president. M. Depth, the president
of the Assembly, a great number of the coneervative
members, and a considerable number of general
officers attended. Toe whole of the new ministers
now in Paris were present, but none of the ex-
ministers appeared. It was particularly remarked
that the legitimists, who have for some months since
been constant in their attendance, were absent on
thepresent occasion. MM. Mole, Thiera, de Broglie,
de Montelembert, de Berger, &c., weell also ahsent.
In short, from the aspect or affairs last n' ht, it would
apnea that though the large body of the conserva-
tives and of the army ate willing to give their sup-
port to the new order of things, the leaders are &a-
ppointed, and the legitimists alarmed and disgusted.

COURT OF BANIRUPTC'T.
(THIS DAY.)

Biro's Xi. Coloorsorza Pam
Ia—THE OOVENT.OARDEN OPERA HOUSE.

This was as adjourned matting for the last examination
of the bankrupt E. T. Dslatlsid, bmwsr, of Willow-hank,
Fulham. The bankrupt's assmints went very fully pub.
Wiwi at the time of the last meeting, and the examine' to
bad been adjourned to give the *mignon time to inmatigato

tai alsofati.

Lloyd tendered a proof, an the part ofXr. W.Pearces'
of Jermya-street, for 6001. en la judgment recovered against
the bankrupt and Mr. Webster. The debt was to furniture
supplied to ,Willow-bank.
Mr. L•W2050111, for the orkers, resisted the prooL on the
ground that it was a loiat debt, sad maid not be proved
against the separate estate so bag as there was • solvent
partner. In support of this view, be cited the ease of e. Es-
Wits Field," In= "Montasu's Reports." The proof
might be admit- ad to give the creditor a voice at the cer:ol-
- meeting, but lot for any other peeper.
Mr. Lewis, for the bankrupt, also objected to the proof,
on ths
rept at groallund that the goods were not implied to the bank-
His Honour said the judgment of the Court of Quesa's
Beach had decided that prat, and with that Adis:rat be
could not interfere.
Mr. Lloyd cited the case esparto Croeifield, in Montague
Wpm% where, a bankrupt being the drawer of a note,
filir Omer Roes had IteM that the rule above-cited only ap-
plied le mess of actual partnership.
His honour said the male object of the bankruptcy law
was to meats an equaliestioa of lose and to attain this end
very arbitrary rates bad onessiortally been Uhl down
Such was the rale triad/ma a joist greater heegligebr el
the separate estate, lustre both partners, or esollegiNeelelle,
were bankrupt or insolvent. This rule ball bees air
blished upwards of 100 years, and the last dardes asineed
it. Hue the creditor had no right to prove as eselmit Ilt•
separate estate of Deladeld, nor even for the pewee of
having a Tree at the outliers meeting.
Mr. Lawrence said the assigner had examined the balance
sliest of the bankrupt which had been prepared with
great are by Maus. Bioko, the accountant', and did not
think that any good end would be answered by
a further adjournment AU gustier as to con-
duct would be better reserved till the certificate meeting.
His unsecured debts animated to 33,3371, with liabilities to
the extent of 3,0001., and not a shilling of assets. The
bankrupt appeared to have disbursed 81,1631. on account of
the Italian Open-hoes. ; and 6.0001. was put down as a gift
to Mr. Webster. This was of itself a suspicious circum-
stance, and it was for the court to consider whether Mr.
Webster should not be examined before the bankrupt
pared. They had been acquainted together at college ; and
in all about 13,0001. had been either given by the bankrupt
to Mr. Webster, or advanced on his amount. This sum in-
cluded 6,0001. for the purchase of the loose at Fulham,
which had been afterwards palled down and rebuilt. It was
tart luxuriously furnished, the bankrupt and Mr. Webster
living together. The latter was now on the Continent, be-
yoad the power of the 'mites.; and as the bankrupt's per.
meal ialasaes might bring him here, perhaps it would be well
to adjourn the examination till that was done. lbw*
before the bankruptcy, the whole of the property had been
Golfo ed by Mr. Webster and the bankrupt to the solicitor
of latter ; and by a deed dated May last, and ez,euted I
en dm essatinont, they assigned all the property at Willow
Rank to Mr. Beale. This security also was subsequently
tionehered to Mr. Appleby, the solicitor, in whore favour
the former security bad been executed. On the 21st of
April, the day before the bankrupt and Mr. Webster left for the
continent, the former executed es arraignment to Mr. Beale
of the whole of his interest in the Italian Opera, down to the
season tickets ; and it hail been eubsequenty carried on by
Mr. Beale. This was a clear act of bankruptcy; notwith-
standing Mr. Beale had become a party to the second
gildsman% of the Falba= properly. Alter obteining this,
he and the whole to be sold ; it realised 10e4001. ; and the
mosey was now is the hands of the auctioneers, whose
charge for galling was quite a cariosity. It was most
important that Mr. Webster short be examined as to this
property; for he was not in a situation to have bought
or at least to have paid for any considerable part of the pro-
perty. A jury would not hesitate to conclude that Mr. De-
tifield was the real owner of the whole, for Mr. Webster had
not even a reputed ownership in his favour, though lording
at the house along with the baakrupt. Mr. D.lafield had
shown the utmost disposition to give all tue information in
his power; but the question now was, whether he must not
submit to a further adjournment. He could hardly hope for
an immediate certificate; and any trial for which the 'genii-
leaden might be deferred would be considered in adjudicat-
ing on the certificate. Were Mr. Webster examined, he
would either satisfy the assignees as to his title to a share of
the property, or would corannes arra Mr. Beale that the
10,0001. now in the kends of the medlar er really belonged
to the traipse's. It was to be observed, that the expert.
dime in the halanoe-sheet was partially unvouched to the
event of 9,0001., and 4,0001. wholly so. His per.
sonsl expenditure was 22,0001. of which 18,0001. was
v .uched. A young men in his position might easily
disburse large sums without making any entry of them:
but it was due to the creditors aLd the bankrupt himself that
there should be a further adjournment.
His honour said he could not go the length of Mjeurniag
the examination till the bankrupt produced Webster; that
might be in effect an adj turnanent sine die, as Webster
might obstinately refuse to C 0..... There must however be
an adjournment; foe melee the large sums disbursed by the
bankrupt in a very unusual way, he could not dealers that a
hU disclosure had been made till the examination of
Webster.
Mr. Lewis said the assignees bad already had two months
in which to 'mains the accounts, all of the items in
which were vouched by chequers. Mr. Webster had allowed
the bankrupt to receive all the money, and it now appeared
that the whole of tte sums advanced to Mr. We beter had
ccnie back to the bankrupt, and Mr. Webster was now a
creditor for upwards of 2,0001. It was most unfair that
objection should now be first taken to the accounts, none of
' the items us which had been pointed out as objectionable.
The gift of 6,6001. had been made the matter of private
examination ; the circumstances were fully explained, but it
was not necessary to proclaim them to the world through
the newspapers. Any further adjournment would be unjust
toilets bankrupt. When the gift of 6,0001. was made to Mr.
Webster the bankrupt was very opulent.
The Commissioner—When was this house built ?
lir. Lloyd said it was finished in 1848.
The Commissioner—And when were these enormous
losses at the opera ?
Mr. Lewis said they were in the seasons of 1848 and '49.
Mr. Lawrence said the losses in the season of 1848 were
84,7061 • in the last season upwards of 54,00 W.
Mr. Lewis said these payments consisted principally
salaries. The bankrupt's private debts wars only 2,0601.,
I though the debts of all kinds were 33,0001. If the bankrupt
was now allowed to pass, a distant day might be appointed
he the certificate meeting ; and in the mean time there would
be an opportunity for examining Mr. Webster. Th, ugh •
joist owner of the property at Fulham, Mr. Webster had
pet derived • farthing of benefit from the proceeds of the
isle, but wu, on the contrary, a creditor for 2,7001. All the
Items in the accounts were vouched; they had been in the
I hands of the assignees two mouths, and no attempt had been
made to impeach them. From the moment of the bank-
=to the last examination the bankrupt had devoted
to assist in preparing the aecouats
His Honour said the actual position of this affair was that
I the bankrupt owed an enormous sum, 33,0001. to unsecured
'Wilton, 3,0001. to t hose secured, with liabilities for 3,0001.
more ; and he produced literally noth.ng for his creditors.
'Objections had been made that the gift to Mr. Webster was
la very singular circumstance, and further inquiry was asked
for. It was only four months since the date of the flat, and
•
I though the accounts were very voluntinoss, and Mr. Web
stir had not appeared, the bankrupt insisted on passing his
last examination, though be did not give up property to pay
even the ordinary expenses of the oourt. His good debts
were returned at 31 14.. 6d —(laughter)—and his property is
freehold land in Bucks was returned is blank. If the
assignees, representing the whole body of creditors, wished
an other adjournment, with an intimation to the bankrupt
that his last examination would not be passed till he had
done his best to procure the attendance of Mr. Webster, the
court would feel bound to grant so reasonable • request. It
was important to ascertain whether the transfer of the pro-
perty before the bankruptcy was valid ; and, if Mr. Web-
ster's attendance was necessary for this purpose it was the
duty of the bankrupt to to all he could to get that perm
here.
Mr. Lewis said he had never sought to prevent his at-
teadance.
The Commissioner said then did not appear to be any
reason for attributing worse than simplicity to the
bankrupt, bat the statements were so singular that
every facility ought to be gives for having them confirmed,
if that could be done. The adioantment would not at all
operate as a slur ca the bankrupt's Mara/ter.
After a oemeratim, the last examination was farther ad-
journed till the 7th of February.

Tin BABNIONDSET MURDER.-APPEAL TO A
If toxin COURT.— [here no longer ezists any doubt that it
is the intention of Mrs. Manning's legal adviser to bricg the
point raised by her counsel at the trial, that she should be
tried by a jury partly composed of foreigners, before a higher
tribunal. A certificate was signed by Mr. Parry, that be
considered the decision of the judges OTTOIIOOIII, and that there
were goof grounds for appeal to the House of Lards. Ibis
certificate was forwarded to the Attorney General, whose
sanction it was necessary to obtain before an appeal could
could be made; and that learned gentleman, after consult-
ing wit► his professional brethren who conducted the case
with him en the put of the crown, wrote back to
Mr. Solomon, Mrs. Manning 's attorney, refusing to
give hie consent, as be perfectly agreed with the decision of
the learned judges. The Attorney General, however, aided
that Mrs. Manhing could bring the point for discussion and
decision before the Court of Appeal in Criminal Cues, an-
pointed by the late of act of Parliament, and that as far as he
was concerned he would afford every facility for bringing
the matter to a speedy lone. Of course the object of the
prisoner ems delay, because the appeal to the House of
Lords could not be tried until after the meeting of Parlia-
ment, whereas the appeal to the Court of Appeal in Criminal
Cases will be disposed of in a few days, or at moat in a week
or two.

Yesterday, the nem of the ti;,..missal of the French
ministry, end the election of a new cabinet composed
of mien oceaparatively unknown, and of little influence,
together with a decline of upwards of one pfr cent.
in the Frisch Routes created no inconsiderale sen-
sation on the Stock Exchange to day. These sudden
mutations are very generally regarded in the City as
but the finviranner of more important changes not
far distant, and which may eventually affect
the nature of the present government of
Frame. Under the3o circumstances, the home Foods
may be considered as having been comparatively
steady, the extreme fluctuations as between the
highest and lowest point of the day not having ex-
ceeded 1. Consols opened at 921 to a for money,
and 921 to 1 for account. They were afterwards
done at 92 and /, the lowest and highest points,
between which they underwent various oscillations,
and closed at 921 to 1, both for money and ac-
count. The Three per Cent. Reduced were done
at prime varying from 921 to 1. The Three
and a Quarter per Cents. were only slightly dealt in,
and marked 921 and 1. The amount of business
done in the English funds was considerable, par-
ticularly foe time.
Exchequer Bills were done at 425., 455., and 465.

were merited at 8 7-16 and 1 ; ditto, 30 years 1859,

ditto Old Annuities, at 891.
With the exception of a decline in Mexican aed
Irish stock the transactions in the foreign houses
pretested no novelty, and the business, which was on
a sisal scale, consisted of the following :
Brazilian, Small. at 831. Danish Three per Cents.,
1823, at 721. Mexican (ex. January coupon), at
261 and 1 for money, and 261 ands} for account.

count; the Three per Cents., at 35. Venezuela, at
21. Two-and-a-Half per Cent. Dutch, at 53 and 1
for money, and 631 and 1 for account.
The course of exchange. at New York on London,
for bills at 60 Jays' sight, is 1101 per cent. ; and the
par of exchange between England and America being
109 23 40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is
nomiaally 0.67 per cent, in favour of England. And,
after making allowance for difference of interest and
charges of transport, the present rate will leave a
trifling profit on receiving gold from the United
States.

there is a demand for our leading mines. Letters from our
local correspondents confirm the improvements which hive
taken place in many of the leading mines, of Cornwall espe-
airily, most of which we noticed in the last and prev.ous
weeks' City articles, whilst the firmness of the metal mar-
kets, and the present misdeed for copper ores, offer an up.
ward tendency to the price of *hares.
East Wheal Rose, Condurrow, Stray Park, South Basset,

THE DEAN AND CHAPTER OF EXETER AND MR. ,tg
Hooxaa.—The telliwing statement connected with the cue ee
of Mr. Hofker, one of the secondaries of the Exeter 20
cathedral, has been issued by a committee formed to assist 111
him in his dispute with the authorities of the diocese of 106
Exeter: "In the year 1842 Mr. Hooker was appointed a
deputy in the choir of the Exeter cathedral, which situation jje
he coatinued to fill for above two years, when a vacancy to
occurred in the office of secondary, to which the present to
organist strongly recommended Mr. Hecker, when he was 20
accordingly promoted by the dean and chapter, and duly in-
stalled
as secondary. A few months since a report was made g
to the dean and chapter by the organist, to the effect that Mr. ge
Hooker was generally inefficient as a singer, in consequence et.
of which, he reci iced a notification from the dean and 60
chapter of their intention to dismiss him from his situation. EL,, Mr. Hooker offered to produce the most conclusive proof of ,„•••
hie being quite as efficient a singer now, as when he was ap-
pointed secondary, which proof the dean and chapter refused is
to receive. Mr. Hooker has been strongly advised (that 10
even admitting he were inefficient, which he denies), 22
itefficiecey is no ground for dismissal from his
office, lay vicars and secondaries of the choir of the
cathedral church of St. Peter at Exeter being recognised as
forming part of the ecclesiastics belonging to the said cache- 20
deal, and the secondaries,' called clerks or clergy of the 6600
second form, for upwards of 500 years, as appears by various I!
•6
statutes of the bishops of the diocese of Exeter, he contends ,„
that his office is a freehold, of which he cannot be deprived,
except on the ground of misconduct. This view of the case 23
is confirmed by Dr. Addams, whose opinion has been taken, 161
and also by the feet that secondaries have, from general If
custom, continued to hold their office, when age
and other circumstances have rendered them ince-
gable of performing its duties, and he, therefore, on the 27th 10
of September last, as advised by Dr. Addams, respectfully
to
entered his protest against his removal from his office by the lo
ay
dean and chapter, deing that be bad given cause for his t
10
o
removal, either from non efficiency or misconduct, and con•
se
tinned to occupy his stall, and perform the duties of hie 25
office until the 22nd of October, when he was forcibly ejected 12
from It. The dean and chapter have offered Mr. Hooker us
testimonials of his general good character, and 312
attention to his duties, thereby admitting they 31
have no complaint against him on this head. 10
10
Mr. Hooker has been strongly advised by all his friends to 20
contest the point with the dean and chapter, but is not in a so
situ ,lion to pay the expenses, which litintion with such a U
lowerful body will necessarily entail upon him. In order to
enable him to try the question, it will be necessary to apply
for a mandamus from the Court of Queen's Bench, calling on u
the chapter to show sense why they eject him from his office, go
A committee has been formed to raise subscriptions for the et.
purpose of deb eying the necessary legal expenses." as
A YOUTH ACCIDENTALLY SHOT DEAD AT WRIT- U
RasEx.—A melancholy accident attended with a fatal ag.
result occurred at the house of Mr. William Harris, Bt. tif
lohn'ogreen, Writtle, during the hours of divine service in
the afternoon of Sunday last. It apears that Mr. and Mrs.
Harris left home in the afternoon p
to visit friends at Brom-
field, leaving a younger son and another lad 18 years of age,
to t.ke care of the hoot'. Soon after they had left, Melia a
Seth, aged 15 (son of Mrs. Bach the village post-miserees),
gg
James Bush, son of a blacksmith, and William Horenell,
called in to sit with young Harris with whom they were le
acquainted, and whilst the latter went out to get some water.
Bush, seeing a patent walking-stick gun hanging up aboutaix 4
feet from the floor took it down from the cc fling to examine

fire and had cautioned Bush that " the gun might be SO
loaded." Seeing the accident of which unhappily he had r.
been the cause, Bush immediately ran for the assistance of r,
Mr. Barlow, surgeon, who promptly attended, but life was 27
found to be extinct. The gun, when taken down by Bush, 22
was covered with dust, and Mr. Harris, who was not aware se
that it was loaded, supposes it must have been so for three lc
menthe, when it was used by an elder son, who was visiting
him from London, an interval during which he believes it
had not been touched.—An inquest was held on the body of
the deceased on Tuesday,when it being given in evidence that
there had been no quarrel between Bush and Bach, bat that
all the parties present were friends, a verdict of accidental
death was recorded.
FATAL ACCIDENT.-011 Wednesday evening last,
Mr. Orde, of Cain College, and a friend, were taking horse
exercise between Swabian and Bottiskam. They had
started on their return home about dusk, when Mr.
Orde, who is shortsighted, either thinking he saw something
in his road, or samtaking the same, suddenly pulled his
hone round on to a bank at the side, which, stopping
skirt, flung Mr. Orde from his seat. Assistance was imme-
diately rendered by his friend, and the unfortunate gentle-
wan was taken up and fotusdto be insensible. Medical aid
as procured in all baste from Cambridge, and Kr. Orde
was found to be labouring under a concussion of the brain.
The college authorities immediately communicated with Mr.
Orde's friends, and some of them have sines arrived. Mr.
Orde is a son of Mr. and Lady Orde, of Hyde Cull., Isle
of Wight, and the occurrence is rendered more distressing
from the fact of Mr. Orde, senior, being in such a delicate
state as to preclude his presence in Cambridge. The hone
was Mr. Orde's own, and usually a quiet animal. Mr. Orde
diedon Thursday night at half-put ten o'clock.
