The bankrupt, a glass and aim dealer, in the Blackfriare-
road, was • holder of a few Ames in the Royal British
Bank. Some creditors of the bank having obtained judgment
against him before the act of last anion was passed, he was
driven into this court.
Mr. F sr appeared for Mr. D. G. Thompson, a
creditor who obtained a judgment order against the
bankrupt before the bankreptcy, and who had bean allowed
I. enter a claim to prove against the estate lee ISM.
Mr. Griffiths on behalf of the asked that the
claim should be expunged. Skies tkabankrupt obtained
kis oartifleate, Mr. Thompson had put in form his judgment
by taking him into custody, and he Ind bean kept in prince
upwards of three months.
Mr. Featenneyer naked that the proof should rank along
with the ordinary prooh against the separate Meta, the
judgment not having been satisfied, and the order of the
court having made it a separate debt as against the

order to turn this Into a separate debt. AU that was done by
the Winding-up Act of 1849 was to give to creditors a remedy

conies would he not to expunge the claim, but to allow it to
be turned into a proof, on which, however, no dividend would
be paid until the whole of the separate creditors had been
paid in full.
Mr. tatiffithe—He may get the whole of his debt from the
bank. (A laugh.)
Mr. Fesenmeyer —Or he may not. Perhaps your honour
will stay the dividend to give us the opportunity to appeal.
The C---.v,--- No. It is • cos in which I shall not
show the lean possible favour. I think it was very sharp
pranks indeed, after thia man bad obtained Ida certificate, to
proceed spinet him, and pat him in prison.
Mr. Hill (with much exciteenent)—l was there 14 weeks.
Mr. Feeenmeyer—My client is a very poor man, living in
a pent.

The bankrupt was an auctioneer of Oxford-street, and of
Hammersmith. This was the agloarted certificate meeting.
The cam has been frequently bunco, the oourt ; at the last
sitting It was sdpurned to enable Mr. Jones, an opposing
creditor, to obtain legal assistance.
Mr. LIIIIIII3IOO supported.
Mr. Luces oppoed, and submitted that there beteg no
assets, and the bankruptcy being • friendly one, the petition
ought to be dioniesed. Another ground of opposition was,
that the bankrupt had vexatiously commenced en action.
The bankrupt, in examination, stated that the
creditor was Chas. K. Neale, a creditor for 9001. PetiThleiria
been friendly, but Mr. Neale sued him. He would not say
that this was a vindictive bankruptcy, Neale said that the
Bankruptcy Court was the only court in which his affairs
could be settled. He believed there would be meets Mains
from the secured property.
Mr. Pennell said that, taken at cost price, the property,
which consisted of houses at Hammersmith, showed a sur-
plus of 1,6001.
The bankrupt was further examined as to some agate
which he had bought of the oppog creditor. He ednutted
that he had pledged them with i perks named Brown, who
held the bills he lad given for the cigars. He aim paid 701.
' in ugh to Brown, mod shorewards deposited with him a mort-
gage of a barge for 2101.
Mr. Lucee—Thm you represent that you have paid more
than the value of the cigars
Bankrupt—Oh, certainly.
By Mrs. Lawman—Jones repressnted the cigars to be
foreign "lon Amloos." Before they were delivered I wrote
him to say that I was unable to carry out the contract ; but
he refused to cancel it, and insisted on my giving him bills
for 21W. I then had the cigars examined, and found that
they wont British make.
Xr. Lawrence—Why, they were made in Drury-lane,
were they not f (Imaghter.):
Bankrupt—They were, by Butler and Co. I then wrote to
Jones, demanding to lam my soteptances back ; but he re-
fused to let me have them. I have not the invoice. It wee
bet by my solicitor et the Oriel; but. at the Lest Kitting here
I taw It in Jones's end saw him tear it up.
Mr. Jame denied that he ever had it.
The bankrupt went an to ley that he had been Introduced
to Jones atEmom Races. Is minnow& bought the cigars
of him. He sent them to the Peakcasicen. Never
attempted to sell them after he found what stag Munger*.
He should as soon have thought of paining a hid
The payment to Brown was made on the repremstation that
witness should be compensated for the diffensce between the
value of the cigars and what they were repreemted to be.
Brown mid he could control Jones, as he was then arranging
his affairs la this court.

Mr. JOrtes—►iediTljii I paid 20e. in the pound.
Mr. Lawranco—No doubt. That justice was done you, in
your absence, at the last sitting.
The bankrupt further deposed that the result of the infor-
mation he obtained was, that the cigars were of English
manufacture.
Mr. Lawrance—Pure leaves f
Bankrupt—Foreign lett:Tut manufactured in England.
The invoke price was 265. a pound, but, being British menu-
they were only worth Be. or 9s. a pound.
The tnimioner—What do they mannfacturethese Eng-
lish cigars from P
Mr.-Lawrance—Dock leaves.

The Bankrupt—From rhubarb leaven, chiefly, I believe.
Brown agreed to allow me about 401. for the cigars being
British. The bills, somehow or other, got into Jones's
hands again, and he sued me on them. He gave
no credit for the cigars. I wrote to lir. &abbe, his solicitor,
offering to return the cigars, and afterwards to refer the
matter ; but I got no mum. I beard no more till judgment
was obtained, which was got on a substituted order Joe set_
vice. Afterwards I was coming to town; Jones drove against
me in his phaeton and knocked me down ; he followed me all
the way to my home, saying I had robbed him of 1601. He
then me at the police-statics with await, and I was
. For this I brought an action, which was cow-
moulood on my giving two bills of 401. each end a cheque

By Mr. Lucas—None of these have been paid. I pledged
the cigars with Brown for the bills.
Kr. James said the cigars had cost him 18e. • pound, and
they bed sines sold for 21a. or 22a.
Mr. Lawrence contended that, as Mr. Jones bad got back
his cigars, he had no charge against the bankrupt. He had
in fact made a profit on the cigars. The bankrutet,zt
knew nothing of cigars, had been induced by Mr. E
Brown, the bill-broker, and Mr. Jones, the cigar-dealer, to
purchase 220 lbs. of cigars; and though he had offered to
rescind the contract, ha had bees persecuted from that
moment down t, the present. He (Mr. Lewrance) felt it a
deity to stigmatise such • wicked course of vindictive
ceding. This poor man, having a family of sight
bad bean in prison three months at Mr. Jonas'. suit.
Yr. Jones—No ; It was far the coats.
Mr. Lawrance—Notwithstanding that nice distinction, I
hops Jour Honour will think this poor man has sacred

Hie Honour said the trading had beak of a very specula
the character; the bankrupt had dealt In Westminster Bonds,
cigars, and other things. But considering, that he had been
hardly dealt with by Mr. Jones, he might have an imme-
diate certificate, but only of the third rim, sa there was
nothing unavoidable in the matter. It m%ht have been •
mat misfortune to have had dealings with Mr. JOON—
(laughter)—but it was not unavoidable on the part of the

Before he took her to the hospital she asked him to let her

/1-eieriek BoWools, a pang an said to hold a Impos-
sible situation in the Tower of London, appeared again on a
charge of stabbing James Hall, on the night of the 16th of

The injured man attended, leaning on a crutch, and sup-
ported by two Mends. While giving his evidence he had a
mat at the table. His idatemest wen very long, but the fads
are these :—On the night of the 16th of last month ha wee at

but their respective friends Mgt them mast, and
ftewelt off. Shortly after, both parties met at the Cottage of
Content public-house, when the gamed was renewed, and
the prisoner's Mahe and the witness turned oat to fight,
and in the two or three rounds which they fought the for-
mer had the bat of it. In the last round, and while his oppo-
nent bad one arm round his neck, and was thumping
him shoat the head with the fist of the other, he (witness)
felt something dart into his right thigh, and at this time than
was no person within two or three yards of him bat
the prides, and his brother. He was thrown
down immediately after, and on getting up said, He
has dons it," meaning the prisoner ; but at that
tints he did not think he was so much Wand.
He was assisted home, and on taking off his trowsers found
a deep gash or wound on the Inside of the right thigh. He
was conveyed to the hospital, where his wound was dressed,
and he was under the are of Mr. Be a surgeon.
Sal Brookes, the landlord of the Jolly Mitcham beer
house, and other witnesses, were celled, whose teati-
mes, differed widel,. Sane said the prisoner at no period
of the fight was sufficiently close to the proses utor to stab
him, while others said he palled his brother from off Hall
after the last round. They also said that after the fight both
partite returned to the public-house, shook hands, and that
from 20 minutes to half an hoer had darned before Hall
complained of being stabbed, and that the knives produced
by the prisoner and his brother did not beer the alighted
marks of blood.

We have before given an account of the apprehension of the
prisoners in the United States, and an outline of the charges
against them. The alder Mellor was a man of high memo-
lability as a solicitor, in Ashton, a short time ego, and had
the reputation of being a strictly moral and religious person.
It wee not until after his flight that his delinquencies were
known or even suspected, out of the profession. It was then
discovered that he had committed hands and forgeries to the
amount of some 7,0001. and upwards, by which in some in-
stances families would be deprived of their entire property.
The charges taken against him and his son on Wednesday,
end which accepted the court till a late hour, were chiefly
these in which Mrs. Clarke of Bowden was Interested. Mr.
Leven* banister, prosecuted, instructed by Mr. Merrket,
solicitor, and the first sass was one in which Mrs. Clarke
instructed Mellor to call in 6001. that he had been
instructed to invest in mortgagee for her as the
surviving executrix of the late James Hart. This
money was directed to be paid to Mr. Foaswgil
of al
Modernise. whose wife was entitled to a
interest wider the will of Hart. Of this money Mellor
canned 1601. only to be
_pad to Mr. Fothergill, afterwards
altering the receipt to 4601., and passing it as such to Mrs.
Clarke. Upon this cam the magistrates decided to commit
the alder prisoner for forgery. The next case was one in
which Mrs. Clarks, through her ester, Mrs. Janet Hart,
authorised the elder prisoner to tranider a mortgage of 3004
in 1856. Shortly afterwards he delivered to them two deeds,
' one purporting to be a conveyance of hereditament' in
Beddleworth from Mr. Wm. Bottomley to Mr. Samuel
Prestwich, for a consideration of 4001., end the other pur-
ported to be a mortgage from Mr. Samuel Prestwich to Dirs.
Mary Clarke for 3001. At this time he stated that he knew
the property, and that the security was ample. It was
shown in evidence before the magistrates that BMI
Woresa clerk in Mellor's office, had no to sell,
and that Prestwich was a baker who had
servant, and never had any property to mortgage. Bottoes•
ley and Prestwich deposed that they had beenindneed to Ass
the deeds without hearing them read, sad that they sop-
they were eigning as trustees, sad only as a matter of
The charge mggaln t the younger primer was that he
bad engrossed one of the deeds and attested thefteatng to
the other, 'mowing that they were forgeries._
thet-
soners were ocenmitted for trial in this case, bat thsearager
Mellor wee admitted to bell in two sureties of 261. s
