LY THE MATTER OP THE CONTRACT CORPORATION COMPANY

Mr. Train—You would have no difficulty in having the
bars so aloes and so stroog that the hatchway would be as
atroag as 212 deck!—No.

Ca4sia Hams—l want your opinion on this. Some gee.
tlenian his proposed, among other inventions, to tit revol-
vie" iron abutters over the eosins-room. One of the most
outmost practical men has written me a letter in which he
says, " I have carefully considered the subject, and I am of
ooiaion that tbe ordisary torparding is, for all purposes,
more effective than snob an application would be, and cer-
tainly a less impediment to the ventilation." Yoe see how
they differ. TMs gentleman goes on to say, " There has
sever been, to my knowledge, an baton°, of the skylight
of say of the company's vessels being injured by the sea.lllitould any change be adopted I would recommend the
adoption of an angle iron-grating with flat arca-bars. This,
with a good tarpaulin to roll up in lino weather, I consider
Ha mat slimiest plaa. It has also she great advantage of
eat getting out of order." What is your opinion of this ?

In this matter, which came before the court yesterday
on a rule callieg upon the company to register the traoder
of 500 shares from Mr. G. F. Holroyd to Mr. F. H. Wil-
liamson, the parties, after considerable discussion, agreed
to have an issue raised as to whether Mr. Williamson was
eatitled to be registered for that number of shame, and
whether the compel)), were bound to register the transfer.
For that purpose a special case was to be settled by Mr.
Holland, a gentleman of the bare and the rule was to be
enlarged in the meantime. The directors bed refused to
register on the ground that they cocsidered Mr. William-
son as "irresponsible person."

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

(Before Mr. Justice Wines.)

In the case of (home Crane, 46, a roman] -looking
fellow. described as a labourer, charged with the wilful
murder of Aane Carr, by kicking and otherwise file/eating
her, the jury, after oar report left yesterday, found the
prisoner Guilty of manslaughter, but at the same time re-
commended him to mercy on the ground that the act tip-
geared to have been committed under peculiar circum-
stincea, and that on account of her drunken habits the
system of the deceased woman was more liable to suffer
frcen any bodily injury that she received.
Wheu the prisoner was called upon to state whether be
had anything to urge why sentence should not be pro-
nounced against him, be replied that he was innocent, and
ent,red into a long statement with regard to the drunken
habits of the deceased, declaring that she had received the
injuries by falling about when she was drunk. With regard
to the state of her eats, be wetted that they had been in
the same condition for ten years. and that she received the
injury during a fight with another woman, when her ear.
rings were torn out of her earl.
. .

Air. Justice Wales, addressinithe prisoner, said that he
bad been convicted by the jury upon what appeared to
him to be the clearest possible evidence of the crime of
manslaughter, and although it was no part of his duty to
express any opicion upon a verdict delivered by a jury,
he had no hesitation in saying that be thought be had bees
very properly acquitted of the crane of wilful murder, and
convicted for mantlaughter only, and it now devolved upon
lam to pass sentence for that offence. There was so
doubt that he had caused the death of this unfortunate
woman by a kick that he had given her, and although it
was very probable that she was addicted to drunken
habits, sad had given him a great deal of provocation, it
was necessary, for the sake of preventing society from
being shocked by such occurrences as these, and also for
the protection of unhappy Tidier, like the demised, that
men should be taught that intemperance and misconduct
ou the pert of their wives, or women with whom they
cohabited, was no justification for their resorting to
Acta of brutal violence of this description. The jury had
recommended him to mercy, and he understood them to
mean that they did this because they believed that be bad
beers guilty of an act of sudden violence without premedi.
tation, and he should give effect to this recommendation so
far as to redoes the sentence of penal servitude which be
should have paned upon him. This offence, however, was
one of a very serious character, sad he felt compelled to
pass upon him a sentence of penal servitude for five years.
