George Knight aid Joseph Haight claimed a right to
vote in reelect of a warehouse, situated at 49, Friday-street
It sppsaesd that they were not duly rated to all rates, bat
a claim to be rated was put In signed by George Knight,
" for Knight and Knight."
Mr. Known contended that the signature of George
Knight, fir Knight and Knight, was not sufficient to seta,
Wish a claim/1r Joseph "Light. He grounded this argu-
ment on the 110th seeds. of the Reform Act, which stated
that " it shall be lawful Os any person occupying soy house,

separately sir, with any land occupied therewith by
bin as °wow er eisegied therewith by his as tenant ander

thus clearly laid drew that a party occupying a house,
counting house, or warehouse, ot.uld claim to be rated either
in his own name or Jointly with his partner ; but the act of
one nun could not be entertained as the act of another. If
a tender had been unwary on the part of George Knight,
Joseph Knight 'night have repudiated the sot, saying that
he did not seek the franchise, and that he would not be
bound by the signature of his partner. Even if authority had
been given to George Knight to sign for the firm, such signa-
ture could not,tin hta (Mr. Brown's) opinion, be entertained
by the court. Os these grounds he submitted that the court
could not hold that a claim signed by George Haight for
Knight and Knight was such a claim as came within the
31of the act of parliament.
.Initaterts said he must tyke this to be a claim on
the part of the fires, and in his opinion the name ought to be
retained. Clain allowed.

CASs OF A

-----
Thb was the day appointed for the hot eximl.nation in the
ewe of Charles Cotton Butterfield, beaker, of Petersiield.
The bankrupt had carried on business under the fins of
Butterfield and Co., being in putnership with Mr. Currie,
aolieike, of Lincoln's fan. No accounts were filed, and it
was stated that the bankrupt had absconded shortly before
the fiat wee issued. The liabilities of the concern ere esti-
mated at 10,0001. or 12,0001., the assets at about 8,0001. sub-
ject, however, to the result of a chancery suit.
Some proofs were tendered, as against Butterfield end
Co.;• but Mr. Crnikshank, for the misuses, took an objeo-
tion to their being received under a fiat issued against the
bankrupt only, citing the well-known role that joint debts
could not be proved under a separate fiat where there was •
well-knows solvent partner.
His Honour concurred, and held that the debts could not
be proved on this estate, for the purisme of taking a dividend,
bat only for voting In the choke of assignees.
The assignees, who were chosen at the last meeting, are
Mr. Samuel Seward, gentleman, of Weston, Mr. Charles
Parr, yeoman, of Sheet, and Mr;Riohard Gale, a merchant
of llorndeen. _ _ _ _ .

At three o'clock, the benkrup• not haring appeared, the
usual process of outlawry was gone through againet him.

Hampton-court omnibus, was summoned for cruelty to two
horses.

George Sutton, the defendant's driver, was summoned in
the firs; instance, when it was proved that one cf the horses
drawing the omnibus which he was (trivial; dropped down
dead near Hyde-park-corner. It was a small poney boric,
utterly unlit for omnibus work. It had woucds on its stout-
dere, produced by the collar, which had been painted over
with tl at. of brimstone, rad the hest in tte raw fie #h plug-
ged up with fullers earth. One of its leas also bad a wound
on it. The other horse, which the driver was vainly at-
tempting to make draw the omnibus, was scarcely a shade
better in condition than its wretched companion. This
bone also had large wound, on the shoulders, daubed with
}bur of brimstone and fullers earth.

The defendant said he had not beim able to &Vend to his

and had been attacked by the cholera, be would mitigate the
amount to 40a. including costs.

GENERAL AMNESTY FOR POLITICAL

OFFENDERS.

Lest night a large meeting was held at the South
L-nitton Chartilehall, B ecklrisn-road, to adopt a memorial
t• the Queen to grant a general amnesty to all political
if-riders. Messrs. M•Orath, Baker, Clack, and other
chartist leaders were present. Mr. Miller presided, and
having briefly explained the object of the meeting,
Mr. Chaim moved the following resolution, which was
seconded by Mr. Oleos :
That when circeiristsnces rendre the punishment of peli-
.ical offenders necessary, a broad distinctien ought to be
made in their treatment from that of persons convicted of
crimes against persons and property; and seeing that in the
case of the political prisoners confined in the House of Cur
rectum, Westminster, and such other gaols in thee dant-
sloes, such &illation has nut been made, this meeting is of
npiuiun that the severity of the treatment, and the terms of
incestaration which they have traduced, has amply satisfied
ttot requirement of the law ; and this smear g emphaticelly
declares itself in favour of the release of all persons who are
at present suffering imprimassent for political offenees.
On the motion of Mr. BARES, et condod by Mr. Wheotrit,
a respectful memorial to her Majesty was adopted.
Mr. STALLWOOD and several other speakers addressed the
weting, and the Imegusge ad Ted by all parties was of the
most moe.erate elesaip'tm.
The memorial, ft was decided,

Sir Robert Peel's new plantation plan does not take
with our Dublin public. The general feeling about it
may be described in the words that Abernethy applied
to phrenology, "It has much that is true, and much
that is ECII; bit tho new is not true, and the true is not
new." Its practicability is much doubted, and there
are many other novelties required in Ireland besides a
new class of proprietors. In fact ni co of business here
tbink that land would not change hands at all fewer
under a commission than it does at present. Not only the
protectionist but the liberal party are sceptical about
the plan proving practicable) but its apparent bold-
ness, and its magnificent promisee,

of those who look with pleasure to the chance of his
being minister again.
Doctor Maellonell, the senior fellow of Trinity
Cullege, is now spoken of for the vacant mitre. He
is generally respected, and his politics are those of a
moderate tory, and he supports the national system
of education.

The hostile message of General Narvaez, couched,
sa I hays already stated, in indecorous terms, was re-
plied to by Rios Rosa+, who declared that he under-
stood a message of the kind implied a duel with pis-
tols at five paces distance. Generals Cordova and
the Count lariats Hermoa acted as seconds
to Narvats, and the Prasideat of the Chamber
of Deputies (Mayans) and General O'Donnell
to Rio. Roue. The affair was adjusted by
than gentlemen, chiefly by the efforts of Mayan;
sad in the eitt'ng of the chamber yesterday the
afikir was finally concluded by the speech of Rios
Room being read from the reporter's notes, and on the
president's questioning him as to whether he bad any-
tning more to add, be replied that it had not been hie
intention to offend any of the ministers. Narvsez
then declared himself satisfied, and thus conclude I
this laughable farce, with which the country has been
a screed time scandalised by a challenge sent by the
president of the council of ministers.

THE QUEEN'S PROGRESS.

EDIIIBITILGH.—We understand that the secretary
of the North British Railway Company received a comma-
nieation yesterday morning from Col. Anson, of her
Majesty's suite, intimating that the Queen and the members
of
the Royal family would leave Perth at eight o'clock on
Thursday morning, by special train on the Scottish Central
Railway, and might be expected to arrive in Edinburgh
about ten o'c:oe.k. It was added that it was not her Majesty's
intention to leave the royal carriage while in Edinburgh,
and that, consequently, her stay in the metropolis would be
limited to the change of engine.—Daily Mail of Tuesday.
Butstirsonau.—lier Majesty is .expected to strive here
about tea o'clock on Saturday morning : she will stay a
very few minutes—a sufficient time only, in all probability,
ti allow the address of the Mayor and Town Council to be
presented. A few individuals only will be admitted within
the statism during the time the train containing the royal
party belts. At firomagrove, about fourteen miles from
hence down the Gloucester line, where the engine will as-

journey for a day ; and at the same time it was stated that
there woe a probability that her Majesty might makes lonics
stay in Gloucester than had been at first lap :cud, and that

prove correct—and circumstances which have transpired tend

Rasegh el this however. The ignorance of the
writer laths Iffinsa is u evident as his malice, but it
is to be repridled that a latent cause for the late out-
break in Cephalonia, in which I beg to assure you
none of the people of the other islands participial
even by thought, may be found in the fact that Yr.
Ward ham gene over, as they say, to disavow and
withdraw Ike liberal ocinoserions of his predecessor.
If he doss se, be does it with regret I cannot doubt,
but, at the same time, much allowance must be made
for the disappointment of a people who find the re-
ward of 30 yew, peaceful exertions for constitutional
snatched from them afresh at the very mo-
ment of fruition.
The barbarous outrages of the turbulent sailors of
Cephalonia I must, in common with all lonians, re-
pudiate and regret, but I fear in this as in many other
instances of popular outbreak, it is not the manner so
much as the cause of this violence that demands our
indignation.
In conclusion. I may be permitted to remark, that
it seems to be the present policy of the Times to re-
verse the Roman maxim, " Parcere subjectis et de-
bellare superbos." Their animosity to weak nation-
alities *a been too apparent during the late struggles
in Europe; nor can: we feel much aggrieved that a
journal, which in the very face of admiring Europe
has ventured to vilify thi Hungarians, should stoop
to slander the lonians, who have hitherto done
nothing but submit and suffer, or remonstra'e, as
their emstitution required, through the very Lords
High Commissioners of whose policy they had °ma-
rkedly reason to complain.
