COURT OF BAYKRUPTCY.-YESTUDAY.

N as Wrevenuox.—THE ISLINOTON CATILI Mauster.
In the ease of Richard Wer.brook, who was made bank-
rupt as a bay-dealer of Lawrie-terrace, New-eras, and of
Islington, • petition hail been presented, seeking to eat the
adjudication aside, oa the ground that the bankrupt was
not a trader, and that the when proceeding was collusive,
with • view to relieve Mr. Westbrook from his liabilities,
and not for the purpose of distributing en y property
among the creditors. The petitioner was Mr. Samuel
Adams, banker, cf Were, iu Hertfordshire, who was a
judgment creditor of Mr. Westbrook's for 3,4211.
It appeared that in 1849 a joint stock company, called the
lelingtoa Cattle Market Company, was in course of for-
mation under the sct u & 6 William IV. ; they were provi-
sionally registered ; and Mr. Westbrook, Mr. Kirk (also a
bankrupt), Mr. Clark, and other gentlemen,were appointed
directors; and they entered into a contract with Mr. Wil-
liams for the purchase of land at Islington, for the purpose
of a market, rendering themselves liable to forfeit 50,0001.
if they failed to complete their contract. A deed of set-
t ement was prepared, and executed on the k9th April,
1830, by which the capital was tiled at 200,0001. in 20,000
lul. shares; but of this number, only 1,600 shares had
been allotted and taken up. While endeavouring to form
the company, the directors kept open the ground as a lair-
s., for cattle on their way to and from the market at
lifosithheld, charging so :uncle per night; they alio supplied
bay to the drovers for the purpose of feeding the cattle.
This bay they purchased in large quantities, and sold it by
retail ; and this was the trading on which Mr. Kirk and
Mr. Westbrook bad been made bankrupts. To meet their
septum the directors had borrowed large sums on the
Onlpeoy's notes, at rates of interest considerably exceed-
uper cent.; and these promissory notes, to the amount
pwards of 30,0001.,n0w remained unpaid. The directors
bad sustained heavy loans in keeping open the
snake' as a lsirage, and in endeavouring to establish it ss
a market. The company was never completely registered ;
and the directors having failed to complete their contract
vita Mr. Williams, he commenced proceedings in ejectment
and took possession of the land and building.. Mr. Clark,
ems of the directors, had made an affidavit, stating that the
market was not kept open as • Icings for the purpose of
• profit or obtaining a livelihood, but for the
nib of completely forming and establishing a market;
Megllies Mr. Westbrook was not • bon,: Ade shareholder, not
paid the deposits in the said company. The deponent
flarther denied that the bankrupt had ever carried on the
bade of a bay dealer at New-noes, or at Islington, or that
he was, at the date of the petition, • trader within the
meaning of the bankrupt laws.
Affidavits in support of the adjudication were made by
Mr. Charles Barker, advertising agent, of Birchin-lane,
who was a creditor for 1061. 13s. 4d. for advertisements ;
and by Mr. George Bade, the secretary of the company,
who detailed the steps taken in the formation of the com-
pany, and stated that there was no clause in the prospectus
which authorised the Wrap of cattle. He further de-
, posed that the directors purchased hay in large quantities,
and sold the same by single trusses to the drovers or others
wanting the same; that it was not compulsory on them to
purchase hay then, as they might have brought it with
them, or purchased it elsewhere ; that the charges for hay
were entirely distinct from those for Wine ; and that any
of the public who chose to come to buy hay there might do
ea, Oa the other side it was denied that this had ever been
dome, and alleged that the sale of hay was merely ancillary
to the lenge of the tattle.
Mr. Cooke and Mr. Petendorff appeared in support of
the petition to annul ; Mr. Lowrance represented the pelf.
tioaing creditor under the bankruptcy (Mr. Chas. Barker)
Mr. Laces appeared for the assignees; and Mr. Annebrong
for the bankrupt.
Mr. Cooke rested the else on the two allegaticaslbet
there had been no trading, and that the bankrupts) cos a
colleens one for the she of relieving Westbrook ben bin
Scants. Oa the latter point he cited • variety of OM
to show that an adjudication could not be sustained Wes
there was property for distribution, either in ere er he
peen.
In the coves of the argument his Honour expressed in
opinion that mere concert was not enough to set nib ad
adjudication ; it Rust be also shown that it was dose la Ili
interest of the bankrupt only, and not at all is that of the
creditors.
Mr. Bade, late secretary sad accountant of the
deposed that he was in bankrupt's employ fliggaelTa.sag,
1849, to March, 1850, at the Market-house at Islington, and
afterwards at the Alessi* town. The Lange sad fodder-
ing of cattle was then carried on at the market ; hay was
bought in considerable quantities down to Midsummer,
1862, and sold by truss. The produce of the hay sold was
applied to the purchase of more, until Marsh, 1850; after-
wards, the purchase. were paid for by ch en. They
sold at • considerable profit ; the average p • price
was 41., sad the selling price 61. B*. per load. They netted
1,0461. for the sale of hay is 1849-50 ; the cost war 6131.,
leaving • profit of 4331. From March, 1850, to Jane, 1862,
the pecan amounted to 9171. Mosey was also saran by
the nyenge of cattle : is the ant year 4861. was retie_ ed;
1421. was paid for straw, de., leaving a profit of 301.
There was • further pelt under the same head, down to
June 1862, of 1,0411. Mr. Westbrook was in the habit of
signing cheques for payment for the hay (Some wen
predated.) Hundreds of cheques were so signed, by him-
self sad two other directors. A great number of cattle
were received there ea the Saluda_ y night—in one week
upwards of 1,300, is others 400 or 600. la January, 1862,
the number was 641; is one week in April, 1,463. The
project for this cempasy beg= before January, 1849, when
he was first enployed. Yr. Shaw Mr. Westbrook, Mr.
Wall, Mr. Kirk, Mr. Winn, and others, wen at that time
considered a onamittee. The object of the company was
finally to establish a market, as declared in the prospectus.
Mr. Westbrook was formerly • banker, at Beading; but
for years he had been a retired gentleman. Had not seen
him for pretty nearly a year before the bank-
ruptcy. The -company were not described in the
gateway as dealers in hay. The hay was used
for no other purpose than the lanai* of the cattle, elan
to feed • horse which they employed on the presages. It
was sold to the drovers Indy. The noses& of the hay
went into the same fund se the ether aiesey. Mr. West-

IRELAND.

Dual.3ll, OCT. 19.
I regret to say that another death has resulted
from the late fearful accident on the Great Southern
and Western Railway, Miss Pack, the lady whose
state for several days, from the injuries she sustained
on that occasion, was so precarious, having sunk
under her sufferings yes'erday in Madame Stevens's
Hospital. Her brother-in-law, the Rev. Mr. Wood,
a protestant clergy:me, and other friends, visited
the hospital on Monday, and, so far as the patient's
I critical condition could justify hopes, they appeared
to be entertained of her ultimate recovery. But in
the afternoon a series of bad symptoms set in, and
the house surgeon found the patient labouring under
severe difficulty of breathing, with other dangerous
symptoms indicating that the chest was affected.
The principal surgeon in attendance was promptly
sent for, and all that skill and experience could sug-
gest was done, but unhappily all proved in vain,
and the poor lady expired yesterday morning.
An inquest will be held on the remains conjointly
with those of Joseph Sherwood, another of the TlC-
tints, but the inquiry will be merely formal, as it is
considered unnecessary. to re-open the
_general facts
so amply investigated in the inquest at Naas.
A meeting of the exhibitors of the Great Indus-
trial Exhibition was held yesterday, when it was
unanimously resolved :—" That, in order to record in
a practical manner their sense of the valuable ser-
vices rendered by Mr. Dargan to his native country,
that gentleman should be invited to a public enter-
tainment at the expense of the general body of Ex-
hibitors ;" and a committee was accordingly appointed
to carry out the requisite arrangements.
Last evening a meeting convened by the Dublin
Protestant Association was held in the Rotunda, for
the purpose of taking into consideration "the rush-
' less and unceasing. persecution at present pursued
towards protestants in this country, and also towards
protestant' abroad, as illustrated in the case of Miss
Cunninghame." The body of the Long-room was
filled on the occasion with the protestant operatives,
and several clergymen and others occupied the plat-
form. The chair was taken by Major Boyer:, and
the meeting was addressed by Mr. John Martin, Mr.
T. Thompson, and the Rev. T. D. Gregg; the recent
decision of a Dublin police magistrate, Mr. O'Cal-
laghan, on a charge of distributing sectarian hand-
bills forming one of the ' 'pal topics of the sein-
ing . The following edam were adopted:

The Newry Ammer gives a very favourable re-
port on the state in which the potato crop has been
found as far as it has been examined in parts of the
north of Ireland. There is reason to h3pe that a
much smaller proportion of the crop has been de-
stroyed by blight than was penally feared. The
Irish provincial markets are in • fluctuating state,
which is extremely pealing both to producers and
coesamme. The prices range on an average un-
still the farmers are uncertain whether
the7intbring their produce to market, or rely on
the condolence of the present prices, if not of a still

might have bought hay there; the cattle coming to the
market were the chief consumers. Had the market been
carried out the lairage would have continued. The ;
market contained fifteen acres, and there was
lairage all round. The directors had found it
necessary to raise cuesii:erable sums of UMW) to meet their
expenses. It was for a debt of this kind that Mr. Ailems
had sued him, and obtained a judgment, on which he was
apprehensive of being arrested. Ha had been obliged to
keep very close for the last twelvemonths, and had content-
plated going through the In.olvent Court. No ono ever

The further hearing of the ease was adjourned for a

SURREY QUARTER SESSIONS.—YFATERDAY.
The magistrates of Surrey held their quarterly meeting
on Tuesday at Kingston. The county businewi, which is
always disposed of on the first day, was of an uninteresting
character. An application was made by the warden tf the
new county prison on Wandsworth•common for an increase
of wages, which was founded upon the enhanced price of
the necessaries of life, but the court declined to make any
order upon the subject, and referred the matter back to the
consideration of the visiting justices. An application by
the chaplain and surgeon of the prison for an increase in
their salary was also referred to the committee.
The court to-day was occupied in hearing applications for
renewals and for new licenses for music and dancing.
Mr. Locke applied on behalf of Mt. W. Fowler for
license for the Royal Gardens, Vauxhall.
Mr. Harper, who formerly practised as a solicitor at
Kennington, appeared to oppose the granting of the
license. After some discussion as to whether Mr. Harper
could be heard, the chairman (Mr. Penrhyn) ruled that
Mr. Harper might state upon oath as a witness the grounds
upon which he objected to the license being granted.
Mr. Harper was accordingly sworn, and he then said
that he first objected to the lateness of the hour for the
fireworks, which were • very great nuisance on that ac-
count ; but the principal complaint he wished to bring be-
fore the notice of the court, on the part of himself sad the
other inhabitants of the neighbourhood, was the disgrace-
ful scenes that took place upon the occasions when there
were hal masques at the gardens. Ti. gardens were upon
those occasions not opened until ten o'clock at night, and at
eleven dancing commenced, and it was continued until
five or six o clock the (Wowing morning. Nearly the
whole of the women present were prostitutes, and the
greater part of them were dressed as men, and at six or
seven o'clock in the morning they were turned out of the
gardens in • half-drunken state, sad the scenes that took
place in the neighbourhood were of the most disgusting
character, so much so that no respectable female residing in
the neighbourhood could look out of the window of her
house. The consequence of this was that the most disre-
putable persons assembled together, and the greatest pos-
sible antennae was created.
Mr. Jones, a surgeon, living close to the gardens, gave
evidence of a similar character. He also said that kis bell
was rung at all hours of the night, and when he complained
to the police they told him that it was impossible for them
to prevent it.
Mr. RosseUr, one of the magistrates, said that although
he did not desire in any way to prevent the legitimate
amusements of the gardens from being carried on, he telt
bound to express an opinion, from his own personal obeer-
cation, that those bat masques were a great nuisance. Upon
the occasions when they were given • mob of disorderly
persons, women dressed &amen, and men dressed as women,
in a drunken state, were about the neighbourhood, and the
greatest disorder was created.
Mr. Locke said that the proprietor of the gardens, or
rather the trustee, for Mr. Fowler only acted in that capa-
city, had no desire to do anything calculated to annoy the
public or contrary to the wishes of the court. A very large
21 sum of money, ,0001., was involved in the question, and
it was of course an object to make the Roll Gardens,
which had, as the court was aware, now existed for 150
years, as attractive as possible. If, however, the magis-
trete; considered that bed maquea ought to be abolished
altogether from this country, Mr. Fowler, so far as he was
concerned, would bow to that decision; but he must say
that it appeared to him it would be rather • hardship that
they should do so, particularly as at another establishment
of a similar kind, on the other aide of the water, no Oleo-
tionhadbeen made to them.

The CWras., sßse itons—iltintitarith his collearses, said
*, it apparel* sewn that the asemnis at Van:Wi-
been peeved to be a metres .f annoyance to the
=teats lted
of the neligithearhosid, and the license would
ginsbe panted spin the audition that no more such en-
ents should take place. Two other conditions
wield she be &Melted to granting the license, namely, that
the inoweeks should not ko off after eleven o'clock, and
that the gardens should be closed at three in the morning.
Mr. Locke, on the part of Mr. Fowler, consented to those
terms, and the license was then granted.
