sees damages. The claim was made in reaped of some pre-
mises used as a tobacoo-pipe manufactory at Shorediteh,
which were taken possession of by the company under th
provisions of the am of parliament for the enlargement a the
Mehemet' station. The parties spied to • verdict fir the
plain 'la.—Damages, 2,9001.
BOWITNAD S. EDOSIS--SsAtwo 'a Wases.—The plaintiff
In this cue is a mariner. It appeared that in 1841 he
agreed with the nominal defendant, Capt. Edgar (the real
defendants being the ship-owners), to perform a voyage, in
the capacity of second officer, in the barque Canada to India
and China ; and pursuant to that agreement he sailed in the
month of November, the vessel being ander the command of
then defendant. The vessel toadied at New South Wales,
Singapore, and other places, and reached Macao in China in
the month of September, 1842. There was some difference
between the captain and the crew en the subject of the pro-
visions; and the men, as well as the plaintiff, complained
that they had not enough ; and in the end there was a kind
of mutiny on board. Bowstead threatened to leave the
ship, when (according to the evidence given by Isaac
Draper, the chief mate) the captain said he might do so if
he found a substitute. Plaintiff got a berth as second mate
of the Urgent, another vessel lying in the same part, and
left the Canada. having served Captain Edgar nine months
and 27 days. This action was brought to recover 141. 10s.,
the balance of the wages due at that time, the agreed salary
being 21. 16e. a month. The datum was, that the plaintiff
deserted the ship, and therefore was precluded by the statute
6 468 Wm. IV., e. 19, see. 9, from recovering any wages or
say property he might have left on board. To show that he
had deserted the log book was produced, and several entries
in it went to show that the conduct of Bowstead had net
been very regular, and it stated that on the 22nd of Septem-
ber Homestead left the ship, and having taken hi.s clothes with
him was supposed to have deserted. The chief mate dis
fleetly asserted that the plaintiff left the ship with the cap-
tain's consent, and that this latter entry was made in the log
eight or nine days after at the wptain's dictation—in fact, a
week after they sailed trout Macao for England.—Mr. Bayley,
for the defence, said that this was a serious
charge
against Captain Edgar, and he trusted that the jury we
ret
not by their verdict pronounce him guilty of it, which they
would do by finding for the plaintiff. Mesas. Harnett had
acted upon the entries in the log-book all along, and they
were so acting in defeading this action, and they also de.
hided it for the protection of the maritime service and on
principle. They believed the log-book, and consid.eed the
plaintiff a deserter. Draper, the mate, on being asked why
he made an entry he knew to be false, said that his duty was
to obey the captain. He did not sign that entry in the log.
The learned Unier Sheriff said that the plaintiff cou'd not
recover lithe jury were of opinion that he left the vessel
w'thoat the consent of the captain. On the other hand, if
he had the captain's consent he was not a deserter, and was
entitled to his wages.—The jury found for the plaintiff—
Damages, 141. 10e.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—YrnanDAY.
Before the Cake Ocsandesioner.
RI JOSIAH BNIAPS.—This petitioner was opposed by Mr.
Cooke for Mr. Yield. The amount of debts set forth in the
schedule was only 1211. 171., while, according to the insol-
vent's own statement, he wu entitled at the death of his mo-
ther to an annuity of 4001., besides haying become possessed
some little Uwe ago by the death of his grand'ather of the
sum of 6001.—Mr. Cooke said it would be a grievous pity for
so excellent a property to be saoriflood for so small an amount
of liability, and hoped some arrangement would be entered
into by the petitioner by which his creditors might be bene-
fited without much injury being sustained by Mmielf.—Mr.
Dowse (who supported the petition) said the insolvent's
mother had been advised to adopt soma course which would
have rend-red it unnecessary for her son to have made his
hare ; but no satisfactory result had been gained.
2rbalra CCOSINONAINONAT trusted some good advice world be
given the imelvent between this and Monday next, to which
day he (Kr. Reynolds) would adjourn the tem.
De RI Smog SCHNINDINA AND JOSEPH SCHNIIDLRIS.
—The first of these insolvents wee opposed b Mr. Sugood,
for Abraham Weinburg, on the ground of his hardiaaga frau-
dulently obtained goods for the porpoise of of
them at a price mach beneath their value.—Mr. sup-
ported both the petitions/T.—The applicants, it appeamd,
had been coffee-house-X ppeenes sad pastry-cooks, and by ad-
vertising in the Jewish Chronicle bad induced the oppci
creditor to believe they were in good circumstances, which
was his reason for trusting them with a amount of
goods; but these goods had, it wee all large
eged been disposed of
t 7 the insolvents under oast price, imtad of having been
used In their business, as they had repreeented they would
be.—The cue was, ate late period of the day, adjourned for
the production of further evidence.
