Cross-examined—l don't know how he came there. I
don't know whether it was a complaint against Dr. Shaw.
I know the magistrates refused to take his evidence. At
the union he was not confined to the infirmary. He had
a little room where he bad liberty to go in and out, and
used to walk about the garden reading the paper nearly all
day. I don't remember whether he went away himrlf or
was fetched away. During the time he was there he told
me who he was. He said he had been a wine merchant
at Windsor, and that he bad been mayor of Windsor.
Ideal recollect whether be had Ices of memory in June,
but he bad in November, for I see I made the
entry, " lou of memory." At that time he did not recol-
lect haying seen me or having been at Barnet. I did not
examine him specially to ascertain if his memory wee
gone, but only asked him generally for the purpose of
satisfying his friends. In the ease of a pure having seen
his daughter, and being in the course of the day unable to
recollect anything about the interview, I should say it was
owing tosoftening of the brainproducea by physical causes.
I should not say he was of sound mind. I should not say
he was able to manage his own affairs. He would not have
sufficient memory, in other words not sufficient mind. He
could answer perfectly all I asked about himself, and about
all that was going around him, but when I asked him any-
thing that taxed his memory he was cert..inly very defi-
cient. I was with him about ten minutes. I did not
see hint from the time he left the union till the Ist No-
vember. I should may that he u not a lunatic, bat that
be is a person of unsound mind, but I could not certify
that he was a person who ought to be taken charge
of and placed ander care and treatment. It would
not be fair to lock such a person up in a lunatic asylum.
He ought to be placed under care and control ; but not de-
prived of his liberty.
Re.examined by Mr. Merriman—Did not know of his
own knowledge that the mairistratea had refused to take
the evidence of Clods ; but inferred it, as Clods was sent
away. Saw no symptom of insanity. Saw no symptom of
unsoundness of mind except the loss of memory. He was
quite able to distinguish right from wrong.
To Mr. Vaughan—lt is a very difficult matter to define
insanity. I should not consider a person insane who bad
no delusions, and was not dangerous to himself and
others. Or rather if a person has delusions and is danger-
ous I should say that he is insane, but there are
a variety of other cases. Delusions are the principal
symptoms of insanity. I don't know of any important
symptoms other than delusions and being dangerous to
himself end others. He made no complaint to me in June.
He said he was perfectly comfortable.
Mr. Edwin Joseph—l sin a surgeon at Barnet. I
have been 22 years in practice for myself, and as
an assistant twelve years before that. I have seen
a great deal of lunacy, and have frequently during
my long practice, certified lunatics. I first saw him in the
lanes, when I took notice of him because he had a
paralysed walk. In November I was sent for by Dr. I
Shaw to see him. I went and saw him at Mr. Shaw's
residence, had • long conversation with him
and examined him with a view to ascertain
his state of mind, and came to the deliberate
conclusion that he was not insane. I certified to that
effect. (The certificate was put in.) I have been present
at these proceedings, and after hearing the evidence I
should not feel justified in certifying that he was a lunatic,
or of unsound mind, and ought to be placed under re-
straint. He required care and kindness, which I consider
he has at Dr. Shaw's.
Cross-examined by Mr. Poland—l saw him in bed the
second time I called, which was on the 12th of November.
I found that he was very deficient in memory but did not
mention that in the certificate, considering it to be no
proof of insanity. I don't consider him a man of unsound
mend. In the construction of the act, I should soy
of defective mind. I have known a man of
sound mind who told me he could not remember
his own name. I don't think forgetting the visit
of his daughter the same day a proof of unsound
mind. It might occur to many old men. The patient is
senile. He is prematurely old from excess. I think he is
capable of managing what affairs he has. I don't think if
he bad money he would take care care of it ; be would go
and get drunk. When sober, I should say if be had money
be could go and take lodgings for himself, buy provisions,
and generally take care of his affairs.
Be-examined by Mr. Merriman—l agree with Dr. God-
atone that Clode ought not to be placed under restraint.
I don't agree with him that there is softening of the brain.
I think the derangement arises from the spinal marrow,
and not from the brain at all.
To Mr. Vaughan—l attribute the loss of memory to pre-
mature old age, the result of excess. I do not consider
loss of memory a symptom of unsoundness of mind, though
it may accompany an unsound mind. In a person of un-
sound mind I should expect the drawing of unsound conclu-
sions and incoherency. Ins person of defective mind, loss
of memory.
A letter of Clode's was put in as evidence of his state of
mind, at least to the extent that he was able to write co-
herently.
At this stage of the ease Mr. Merriman asked for a far-
ther adjournment, which was granted, Dr. Shaw's own
recognisance" being again taken for his appearance.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Hr. Registrar Holroyd.)
iH RE W. 0. YOUNG.
The bankrupt, a .hipbroker, of 3, Newman's-court,
Cornhill, and lately residing at Palace-gardens-terrace,
Notting-hill, has died since the last sitting. The debts
amount to 24,242/, of which 9,260/. ia due to Messrs. Gibbs
and Co., of Old Broad-street, who hold as security a ship
and stone shares, and 6,2701 to Messrs. Alexander Hall and
Co., ship-builders, Aberdeen. Evidence being given of the
bankrupt's death, the usual order was made.
IN HZ JOHN FLEMING.
The bankrupt, a publican, late of the White Home,
Rolland-street, Blackfrisrs, applied for his discharge from
debts of 607!.
This was opposed on the ground that he had vexatiously
attended an action brought against him by his brewers; but
His Honour did not think the charge made out, and
ranted the order.

The decrease of prevure noticed yesterday Ilea extended to
all our stations, sad amounts to nearly half an Inch In the east
coast of England. The rapid fall shown by yeaterday'safternoon
reports, as occurring In Scotland, has not bees of serious extent ;
and the mercury hen began to rise again at Valenti* this morn-
ing Temperatures have risen generally, except In the extreme
north of our Islands. Strong south .west winds blew last night
on the south-coast of Leland; they have veered to the north-
west, and have moderated. On our Channel coasts the winds are
light and variable, but In the North they blow from the south-
west, Peg prevails on our mouth coast. Rain has fallen on all
our coasts, and mostly In Ireland.

DARING ROBBRRY. —The shop of Mr. Leach, a
watchmaker and jeweller, in Hart-street, Mark-lane, was
mitered a few days ago, and stook-in-trade of the value of
4001. or 500/. stolen, consisting of 36 gold and 45 silver
watches, 25 gold guardehains, a shawl brooch, two wedding
nags, 17 diamond and other rings, three gold keeper rings,
olie mourning ring, and a number of seals, keys, charms,
sleeve links and other articles of jewellery. Hart-street,
the scene of the robbery, connects Creetchedfrian with
lisrk-lane, and Mr. Leach's shop is on the ground floor,
the upper part of the premises being let out in
offices chiefly. There is • street door common
to all the occupants, and within that is • side
dear, locked at nights, leading to the shop of Mr.
Leach. The watches and articles of jewellery above men-
nitrated were on the evening of Friday last placed partly
ler. a wooden box, and partly on trays, according to custom,
and deposited in an iron safe, with other valuable property
forming part of his stock. The shop, like those of many
other jewellers, since the burglary in Cornhill, has usually
keen lighted with gas throughout the night, and was so
hired on the night of Friday, to insure the greater safety.
robbery, however, was not committed during the
night, but on Saturday morning between 8 and 9 o'clock.
At 8 o'clock the promises are supposed to have been all
mete, for some one connected with • floor at the top of the
home, on opening the street door at that hour from the out-
side and voreeding upstairs to his work, observed nothing
amiss. About 20 minutes afterwards, on Mr. leach's son, •
boy of 14, arriving, he found the door of the shop had been
oPened by a false key, and the gas inside turned off. The
iron safe was also open, and a skeleton key had been left
in the door. The robbery must have been effected hastily,
foe much valuable property still remained in drawees and
other parts of the safe untouched, and the thieves bad
taken that which first presented itself. Several watches
and other articles also remained in the window undis-
tarbed. They got clear off with their booty, and up to •
late hour last evening were still at large. A reward of
1001. has been offered for their apprehension and the re-
covery of the stolen property.
