(THIS DAY.)

COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MATRI-
MONIAL CAUSES.
(Before the Jude. Ordhary, Kr. Jetties Wightasaa, eed
Mr. Jester* Willie.)
IMLAY V VOMIT.
.

This was a suit foTairie;oluki;Oor marriage, • brought by
• wife oa the graced et adultery and cruelty. When the
case came on for trial, aed after the Solicitor-General (Sir
W. Atherton), who with Dr. Phillimore, Q. 0., and Dr!
nk
Spis appeared for Mrs. Rowley, had actually commenced
has speech, the proceediags were interrupted, and a lengthy
negotiation took place between the learned counsel and Dr.
Deane, Q.C., who was with Dr. Swabey for the;respondent.
Yrs. Rowley—setiog, as she stated, under • complete min-
apprehenano—oesseoted to put herself in her counsels'
hands, and to her surprise she found that they had made •
compromise on the basis that there should be a deed of
separation. Dimatislied with this result she applied to the
court to set down her cause again for trial ; but the Judge
Ordinary refused to grant her prayer. From this decision
she now appealed.

This MCWllilli Rowley addressed the court at some
length, conten • that she had never contemplated for one
moment the withdrawal of her petition.
Mr. Joatice Wightnian was of opinion that Mrs. Rowley
was not entitled to call on the other side for a re
hawing of the saes, and that the court ought not
to grant her application. It did not appear to
him that there had been any mistake in the
matter, for if Mrs. Rowley thought, am she said, that the
Solicitor-General was going to proceed with her came, than
would have bees no socesety for her to put herself in his
(the Solkdthedoserars) hands. If the wart allowed the
appeal there would be no sod to litigation, for whensvor •
pason's legal adviesra agreed to an arrangement (eves with
the &met of their client) he would immediately say that he
had acted under • misapprehension if the result did not
plinth him.
Mr. Jetties WHlss concurred.
The appeal was rejected.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Moro Kr. flausimateer Gas'barn.)

Re is-park, and late of St. John a-wood-park. lie came
to the court en his own Mahon. Debts, contracted from
1859 to 1862, 2,4181., tncludieg 2181. unsecured. The
emits consisted of some don tla debts and shares, valued
at 751. The bankrupt had given a bill of sale on his fur-
utter. and effects about 17 days before hie bankruptcy, and
the creditor had entered on the day before the adjudication.
The accounts were prepared by MAUL Brown and Dubois.
Mr. C. E. Lewis supported.
Mr. Linklater, forth. said said the bankrupt's direct
debts were small. He had lancculncurred • liability of 10001. in
connexion with the West Dolma% Copper Miming Company
(cost-book, limited), and this appeared to have basal the
scent of his failure. He had also given up shares in the
West Bank Silver kilning Company l probably he thought
this was the "bank on which the wild thyme pew. The
chief complaint against the bankrupt was that be bad gives
• bill of ale shortly before hi. bankruptcy, but this ap-
peared to have been dons in pursuance of a previous agree-
ment. The mirage had no mesas of contesting this bill of
male, and they did not think that any benefit would result
from • mah end goods account.
Mr. B. Bead opposed for a creditor. He complained that
the bankrupt, who had speculated largely in mines, had
denuded himself of property worth 2401., just before
coming to the court. The bill of sale had been gives to a
relative sensed Burton for alleged advances in 1859, 1860,
and 1881.

lialdater maid they were not advances in reality.
The bankrupt had collected Mr. Buxton's nu* and had
applied them to hie own peploses. The case was &serious
on.; but Yr. Burton had foregone prooeeclinp on the
aslmpt agreeing to give a hill el ads.
M. Epinal if that were so, the bankrupt's statement in
his accounto was isoorreet, for he represented that the con-
sideration far the bill of sale was admires made in 1859,
1880, and 186 L Now, it appeared that it had been given
to avoid • prosecution for fraud ; and the foundation of the
traniactios wen, therefore, bpi.
. . . . . . . .

The bankrnsit, ha examiOation, denied that be had mis-
appropriated Ir. Burton's money. They had a running ac-
count. Mr. Benton did not require the money for two years.
Whoa the amount was taken it appeared that
witness had expended 3001., which he had received. Mr.
Burton demanded security, and witness pare him what
security he could—that of his furniture.
His Rawer end it wee most essential that a cash account
should be renderet% to show what the bankrupt had done
with this nosey. The nee would be adjourned for a month
for that purpose.

IN RI LYDIA MARIA 110111 L—A PROTRACT= CHANCERY SUIT.
The bankrupt, described as • spinster, of Stanhope-street,
Begftt's-perk, applied for her order of discharge. Deb*
9101• assetslated at 3001.
Mr. Buchanan, for the aaignees, did not oppose, but
stated that the bankrupt had been left 15,0001. by her
father, the late Mr. John Bobo, bookseller, of Henrietta-
street, Covent-garden. A balance of the legacy was
still due, and interest te the amount of 3241. was now in the
hands of the accountant-general. A sum of 1,2001. was now
in court, beside the arrears of interest ; and the creditors had
t the case into court with the view of seeing whether
brought the case into court with the view of seeing whether
anything could be done to release those fonds ; but unfortu-
nately the suit was standing still.
Mr. Henry Bohn, bookseller, of York-street, Covent-
garden, stated that he was executori under his father's will,
who died 19 yearn ago, leaving his seven children 5,0001.
each. The property consisted of stock, and they were ad-
vied that -a friendly suit in Chancery would be the
beet means of winding up the estate. Unfortunately
the friendly snit became a hostile one ; large costs were in-
curred-3,0001. or 4,0001. • a manager was appointed, but he
nth away with 1,0001. ,• and the matter was still unsettled.
His sinters had raised money on their interests, and he
believed had sold their reversions ; that was the meson why
the money could not be obtained from the wart, because
the parties who bought the reversions had given notice
to prevent it. Had his sisters been content to leave the
matter in his hands, there would have been 10,0001. to
divide amongst them ; but he feared there would be little
or nothing now.
The bankrupt said there was not a word of truth in all
this, and was about to enter into a counter-statement ; but
His Honour said he caw no reseal why she should not
have her order of discharge.
Mr. Buchanan said it might be necessary to have a private
sitting afterwards, in consequence of the statement now
made by Mr. Bohn.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)
IN RI JUDD AND GLASS.

The bankruptswere prlnters, of New Bridge-street,
Blaafriars. This was the sitting for examination and
discharge ; but the accounts, which are voluminous,
have not yet been filed. The preliminary statement,
of Messrs. Johnstone and Co., shows debts of 13,0641., and
liabilities of 3,1751. The assets consist of plant, and
books valued at about 9.0a/1/., unincumbered ; book debts
estimated at 5001, and GUI. worth of furniture, and some life
policies.
An adjournment for two months was ordered.

WRISTMINSTER.

Janet J'oz, the driver of-en omnibus running into
tike ViCiOfill Station, Pimlico, was brought before Hr.
Arnold, for having unlawfully killed Thomas Henry Frost.
Hannah Eibb, of 13, Cariton•terrace, Kentish•town,
laid—Just before 8 o'clook last evening I was in an omnibus
driven by the prisoner. It was near the Victoria Step
tion, which Ilse omnibus bad just left. I was
kneeling upon the mat, and looking out of the window,
there having been a dispute with. man and the conductor
because the man's dog had torn the conductor's Onuses.
Suddenly, while I was looting, I saw a little child run
under the omnibus. Directly afterwards I new a woman
rush towards it; I supposed she was the mother. She had an
infant in her arms ; she cried out " Hy child, my child !"
and she west to reach it, and in doing so slipped and fell
under the wheel of the omnibus.

Mr. Arnold—At what pace was the omnibus going ?
Witness—lt was ouly just started; it was going very
owly.

saw the child ran under the wheel of the omnibus. She
tried to snatch it up, and in doing so fell under the omnibus.
She was picked up between the wheels.
James Holcombe, the conductor of the omnibus, said—l
saw a child about two years old deliberately walk between
the wheels of the carriage and stand upright under it. The
mother, seeing the position of the child, rushed forward
and slipped down. She was carried into a house.
Witness Wright recalled-1 um the infant had a war on
its temple. I beard people sal the child was dead.
Matthew Freat—l am the father of the child. Whoa I

Mr. Arnold—ls that aII the evidence !

had hardly started.
Mr. Arnold—There is not the least blame attributable to
the defendant, this melancholy occurrence was purely Kai-

SERIOUS AFFAIR NEAR SHEFFIELD.

SHEFFIELD, WI:MIDDAY Hours°.

Rumours having been circulated of the exhuma-
tion of bodies by the sexton at the Wardsend Cemetery,
near Sheffield, and of his h►ving sold them for the purposes
of dissection, the attention of the police has been directed
to the circumstance. On examination they found a large
number of bodies in an excavation in the cemetery, some of
which were mutilated.

Yesterday evening a mob went to the cemetery, and,
enraged at the sight of the bodies, broke into a house
formerly occupied by the sexton, and then partly fur-
nished for the use of the minister ; they forcibly en-
tered the piece, broke the doors and windows, destroyed
the furniture, and tore the surplice into rags. They then
went to the sexton's house, turned out his wife, who was
alone, and set are to the premises. The house, with its
content', was entirely destroyed. The damage exosede

THE DERBY.-(THIS DAY.)

For one day at least the Exhibition has owed
Ie lee the onahre of attraction, and Englishmen and foreigners
have bees drawn in myriad', by an irresistible 'impales, to
the greed racing festivity at Epsom. The weather has bees
brilliant, albeit rather hot, and, what was more important
for the Derby hones awl their backers, it was preceded
for • day or two by some of those genial showers which
are nearer, to bring the ground into proper condition for
the performances of the day. The Epsom course it now in
that state which affords no peculiar advaatage to streegth,
and gives favourites and outsiders as equal chance, the one
of maintaining their reputation, the other of displaying
those latent powers which always form such • mysterious
topic amoog the learned sod the wise for some time before
the struggle.

The betting during the week, both at the groat recognised
marts for operations and in racing society generally, has, it
would appear, been exosecliagly active, and the events of
yesterday's running gave an impetus to it which brought it
to a climax. The partisans of Csractscus and other out-
eiders have been growing in confidence, and oa the other hand
the sticklers for the Marquis have been getting bolder as
the moment for action approached. The inexpe-
rienced °silicon sportsman, who, snakes to ley the
wheel of fortune at Epsom, sought guidance from
others, most have found himself es bewildered in hie
speculations as any of the native novices, espe-
cially as the profeedoisal prophets hays been
as safe in their vaticiastiona as ever. Buck odds
as 5 to 2 maintained almost up to the time of
starting show how well the Marquis has stood with his
party ; while Mr. Monty, ou whom fortune has so often
smiled, has seen Bankston running almost a dead hese in
public, estimation with the leading favourite.

The seem in London from an early hour of the morning
wu thoroughly Olympia's, and, aided by the weather, waned
almost unwonted gaiety and abandon. The railway station
exhibited the greatest animation. At Londoa•bridge Amp
trains began running about 7 o'clock, and oxitinued in sapid
sureension till a quarter peat 9 ; when they were succeeded
by special Mains which ran without intermission about every
ten minutes until 1, after which the ordinary trains
commenced for the first time to-day. Though the arrivals
at this grand point of departure were more numerous, if
possible, than on any previous ocamicas, W tams was ma-
ducted with perfect order ; every one found a pines in due
time, and the trains were despatched without any attendant
accident or hitch. The traffic at the Victoria station was
almost equally great, and the specie being larger, or lees
impeded by genecaltrafik, the departnree were more easily
managed than in Southwark. The Waterloo-bridge statics
was also besieged from as early hour, and the accommodation
was quit* satidectory.

The railway conveyance, however, though extremely ooa•
venient, is not that mode of transit which bee been from
time immemorial characteristic of a Derby day. Carriages
and vehicles of all descriptions again net the eye, from the
dashing four-in-hand and the elegant landau to the omnibus
(of which there are many new Exhibition specimens pressed
into the service for the oocaaioo), the ebb,
and the unpretentious cart. The dress of the fashionable
pilgrims to Epsom was of the usual light and airy character
and in harmony with the weather and the buoyant spirite
of the wearers ; sad gauze veils had been duly provided for
the road. The leading avenues to the metropolis were
thronged with vehicles throughout the morning, and it wu
not till after one o'clock that the Epsom traffic was suc-
ceeded by that hush which immediately precedes the
1111 CA,
