the registrar's clerk, and had to keep the above books. I was
at this court on Wednesday, at the examination of a
man named Kent. Mr. Williams, the inspector, was also
here, and gave evidence. He produced several letters in
pencil before the magistrate, and I deposed to my belief
that they were in the handwriting of the prisoner. Mr.
Williams is now in Paris. Several other witnesses
having ;been examined, Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the prisoner
iF he had anything to say against being remanded. Mr.

to such a course bring pursued. Tl e fact was that
his client, seeing from the papers that serious charges against
him had been rumoured about, had coma to town for the
purpase of meeting them. On Friday next he should be able
to show that Mr. Redpath's defalcations were nothing like so
heavy as th, y were now made out to he. The prisoner was
then remanded. Mr. Wontner applied that the prisoner's gold
watch might be given up, and he understood there was no
objec ion on the other side. Mr. Humphreys said there was no
objection to giving up the watch, but the seals he should like
fetaineb. Mr. Tyrwhitt then sad the prisoner would have his
watch without the seals.

MR. GOODERE, THE ATTORNEY, AGAIN IN
" A FIX."

Upon Mr. Ilo'me takir g his seat on the bench, to dispose
of the drunk and disorderly cases in the Police Court,
usually presided over by Mr. Mansfield, the first name
called out was that of " Mr. J. H. Goodere." He not
being in attendance, or at least not answering to his name,
Mr. Holme said : On which case do you call him up ? The
gaoler replied : " For being drunk, and being booked for
safety.'' After all the other cases had been disposed of the
crier of the court was again directed to call Mr. Goodere.
For some time no answer was made, but subsequently it
was stated that Mr. Goodere was at the door. He was
again called, when he put in an appearance, and, on its
being announced that the case was on," a great rush was
made from all the other parts of the building by persons
wishing to hear it. The court was soon densely crowded.
Mr. Goodere, in addressing the bench, said : This is a case
in which I am charged with being drunk and disorderly.
Mr. Holme : At present there is no case before me. r
must hear the charge first. Mr. Goodere : But I want an
adjournment. Mr. Holme : But I can't adjourn a case
before I have heard the charge. Mr. Goodere : But I had
it adjourned yesterday. Police-constable 466 was then
called, and said : About half-past three o'clock yesterday
morning I saw Mr. Goodere drunk and disorderly in Lime-
street. When he came out of one of the supper-rooms he
crossed over the street and ran against a gentleman that
was passing, and after he had so ran against him, he wanted
me to take the gentleman into custody. Because I would
not take the charge he became very violent, and threatened
to report me, and that he was master of the Police Court—
(laughter)—and would let me know who he was. Mr
Goodere : What o'clock did you say it was ? Witness :
About half-past three. Police constable 510 was next
called. He said : I was on duty in Renshaw street when
he heard a great noise, and on going up he found Mr.
Goodere in dispute with the last witness. They ordered
him away, but he said he should go where he liked, and I
heard him tell the officer that he would have him suspended
as he was the master of the Police Court. He
then went a little way up Copperas-hill, but returned and
behaved very disorderly again, when he was taken into
custody. Mr. Goodere : Was I sober ? Mr. Hoime: I
shall not allow you to interrupt the witness. I shall treat
you in this case as I should any other that came before me,
and shall conduct it in my own way. Mr. G-oodere :I do
not want you to do otherwise. But I want to have the case
adjourned, as I have some witnesses coming who will swear
that I was sober. Mr. Holme : You must allow the witness
to make his statement. Mr. Goodere : Allow me to ask
the witness a question. Mr. Helme: After the evidence
has been heard, I will hear arty statement you have to
make. Police officer 466 was then re-called, and, in answer
to Mr. Goodere, said : I do not know whether the gentle-
man was drunk. I will swear that he was not so drunk as
you were. I heard him tell you that he would take you
under his arm, and take you to the police-office. I do not
know who he was. There were three or four gentlemen
with you. If they had been as drunk and disorderly as
you were, I should have locked them up. They were drunk,
but 1 did not lock them up. Mr. Goodere :Do you
remember asking me to go into the middle of the street, and
fight it out with the gentleman ? Witness : You wanted
to fight with him. Mr. Goodere : Answer the question.
Witness : I told you it was better to go into the middle of the
road and fight it out, than make a noise in the street. You
did not ask me my number. I will swear that you did not.
Mr. Goodere : You are a pretty sort of an officer, to advise
me to break the law, and fight it out in the middle of the
road—ain't you. Mr: Garnett : That is not a question.
Police-officer 510 was then recalled, and cross examined.
Ire said : When you were taken into custody you were
drunk and disorderly. The last witness did not tell you to
go and fight it out in the middle of the street while I was
there. You did not ask him his number. You
were told to go away, but you would come back again.
Police-constable 591 was called and fully corroborated
the above statement. Mr. Goodere, in his defence, said :
There were four gentlemen with me, and, yesterday, when
my name was called over, were not present, but at twelve
o'clock they were iu court, and would have given evidence
in my favour. Where they are to-day Ido not know, hut
they were gentlemen of standing in Liverpool, and they
weuld have sworn that I was as sober as I am this moment.
But, you have heard that I was taken up, after the officer
had advised me to fight it out in the street. That was
pretty conduct for an officer. There were others with me
at the time ; they were very tipsy, yet the officers let them
eere and locked me up. Why did they not lock them up ?
Why did they lock me up ? The other day, I was charged
with being drunk. and, at the suggestion of Mr. Mansfield,
I paid the fine of 55.; but now they have locked me up, and
I had to be in the van with all the thieves and vagabonds
of the town, to the danger of my life. lam also summoned
for another offence, quite different to them all. The only
object they can have is to put me out of this court as an
attorney, but that they won't do. It is for you to say if
you believe that I was drunk. You have beard the men
swear, and I have told you what my witnesses will say, if
the case is adjourned for their appearance. If you hear
them, you will probably come to a different conclusion.
adjourned yesterday for the witnesses to be pre-
Inspector Chew : The case was, on the application of Mr.
Goodere,ent,
and when he wanted the case to be heard, all the
policemen were gone. Mr. Ilolme: I shall dispose of this
case at once. yis with very great pain that I have heard
s
this evidence grimn against this gentlemen—evidence against
a gentleman woo is practising as a solicitor in this court,
and I regret that be should have placed himself in the posi-
tion he has done. I feel it my duty to • inflict a fine
of ss. and costs, and Ido so because believe that he
was drunk and disorderly in the street at the time stated.
I regret to see such a species of morbid notoriety displayed
in the case, and I am exceeding sorry to see a gentleman,
an attorney of this town, who, by his education, it is plain,
should be in the position of advising an officer, and not of
asking his advice. If Mr. Goodere had been in bed, as ho
ought to have been, and not about the streets at three
o'clock in the morning, in a state of intoxication, he would
not, as other respectable people do not, have run the risk
of being placed in the van with thieves and vagrants. I
regret to see a man who, by his education, should advise
other people, placed in such a position. The case is
very disreputable, and I regret, too, I cannot inflict a higher
penalty. The fine was at once paid, Mr. Goodere protesting
that he was sober,

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—Nov. 14.
We have not had many, either country or local, buyers
at our market this morning, and though we had a some-
what more general enquiry for wheat, it has been confined
to retail consumers for their immediate requirements ; the
transactions, on the aggregate, are therefore upon a mode-
rate scale, and we note a decline of fully 2d to 31 per
bushel in white and red American, other sorts being
nominally cheaper in the same proportion. The business
in flour is quite inactive, and previous rates not obtainable
by Is per brl, except in retail for extra cholee quality.
Beans have become exceedinglyZscarce, and command
is per qr more money.

Oats and oatmeal dull, with difficulty maintaining the
previous value.

- Indian corn brings 3d to 6d per qr over Tuesday's rates,
but does not go freely at the improvement.
Although the weather has been variable of late, and
now cold inclining to frost, the season on the whole has
hitherto proved highly favourable for autumn culture,
which in this district is progressing to a close, with the
soil in excellent order for depositing the seed.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION (AMERICAN) MARKET.

(Report for the week end ng Nov. 14.)
A fair average extent of business is rep3rted in beef,
without further alteration in prices, and there is a growing
impression that the market is now at about the lowest
point.

- Several considerable sales of pork, of ordinary quality,
have given rather more tone to the market : the prices
realised yesterday at a Government sale at Deptford
being comparatively high, also imparts firmness.
For old bacon there is rather more enquiry. New is
quiet, but thc quantity yet received is iusufficient to give
an assortment.

Lard on the spot is scarce, and prices are supported ;
but considerably lower rates are submitted to for parcels
to arrive.

At the late reduction, there is rather more :enquiry for

MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT.—Nov. 14.
The market here to-day was exceedingly dull. The
transactions in both goods and yarns were quite limited,
and prices rather in favour of the buyer.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET.—Nov. 14.
There was a moderate attendance of buyers at our mar-
ket to-day, but the trade ruled dull and inactive. Wheat
sold at a decline of 2s per qr, but a clearance was not
effected. The sales of barley, except the finest qualities,
were made at a decline of 2s per qr. Beans and pease
were held at about last week's prices, and oats and oat-
meal were unchanged.

LONDON PRODUCE MARKET. —Nov. 14.
SUGAR: We have had an active week in this article,
and prices have further advanced 61 to ls, with a large
general amount of business done, including purchases by
private contract on speculative account. The refined
market has also advanced; brown lumps, 595; grocery,
59s 6d to 625.
COFFER : There has been a fair amount of business done
in plantation Ceylon, at last week's prices. The demand
for native Ceylon has been checked by holders pretty
generally refusing to take less than 535, and kuyers offer-
ine only 525.

TEA c We have had a very quiet week in this article,
but prices have been fully supported.

Mn. GOODERE IN ANOTIIIIR "Fix,"-It being understood
that there had been a summons issued against Mr. Goodere,
fin being drunk and misbehaving himself in the police court
(a full description of which was given in this journal on
Thursday), for which offence he had rendered himself
liable to a penalty of £lO. Throughout the sitting of the
court, a great number of persons were in attendance to hear
the result. Mr. Holme having left the bench, and Messrs.
Bolton and Parker taken their seats, Mr. Goodere appeared,
and wished to have the case postponed for a week, to enable
him to be represented by counsel. After some conversation,
and Mr. Goodere promising to retain either Mr. Huddle-
stone, of London, or Mr. Tindal Atkinson, the hearing of
the case was postponed until Wednesday next.
