miles, in which Jones was allowed 100 yards start, for •

quotation and samples of soda ash, and he wrote a letter
back stating the terms, but did not amid the samples.
Ca the 12th of October he received another letter from
Messrs. Lloyd, stating that they had not received the
samples, and making the rate of freight. In reply to that he
wrote to them, asking them for a reference before doing
business with them, as they were quite strangers ; and in the
next letter be received from them they gave the name,
Alexander Bell and Sons, of Threadneedle-street. Mr.
Jeffricson being absent, he consulted • gentleman named
Liviogstone, of tho firm of Stanbouse and Co., who is a
friend of Mr. Joffrieson and he wrote to Messrs. Alexander
Bell and Sons, and from; what be said to him, on receiving
a reply, be (witness) wrote to Messrs. Lloyd and Co., stat-
ing that they couldnot ship all the 100 tons of soda ash
at one time; but could ship 50 tons then, and another 50
• week after. On the 22nd October, he received •
• letter from Messrs. Lloyd, enclosing • bought note for 100
tons of soda salt, to be paid for in fourteen days after the
date of the bills of lading; and he afterwards forwarded them
the sold note, which was • copy of the other, with the ex-
ception of the word "sold," and was signed by Mr. Living-
stone, Mr. Jeffrieson being still absent ; and on the 25th he
received • letter from Messrs. Lloyd, acknowledging the re-
ceipt of the sold note, and asking for samples to represent
the bulk of the ash. On the 28th he shipped 94 auks of soda
ash on board the Vistula, the value being 4691. 15s. 7d. On
the same day he sent Messrs. Lloyd the invoioe of the ship-
ment, and on the 30th he forwarded them the bill of lading.
On the 3rd November he received an acknowledgment of the
invoice and bill of lading, and also requesting him to ship the
other 50 tons on the Monday followiog. On the 6th No-

the vessel being so full that she could not take the whole

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Dze. 9.
(Bikes Mr. Commiarioser GouNur.)
IS tS B. I. HOPI—IN Xi ELT' AID =sox—

Me whole of We letters were produced, and the witness
declared them to be the same he sent and received in
waver.

On being cross-exaniked by Mr. Miller, the witnem said
—When a sale of soda ash takes place Mr. Pattinson's test
certificate is sent to the parchaeer einly when it is so stip!.
lated in the sale note. There was no such condition in the
contract in question, it merely stated "subject to his test,"
and when that is the case they do not forward • certificate
with the bill of lading. Mr. Lloyd had made complaints at
not having received the certificate, but not until he had
been applied to for the money.
Mr. Goodman (chief clerk) said the question cf quantity
or quality could not be raked then. The only question
was whether the goods had been obtained by means of
• false reference.

Mr. Millar aid he was prepared to show that the trans-
action was perfectly boot fide on the part of his client He
bought the goods under a certain contract, and had sold
them under the same contract, and he has not hems paid
for them, as he had not conformed to the contract, end be
must of coupe fall hack upon the prosecutor to fulfil his
contract.

amid it was of no consequence whether the
conspiracy was to obtain the goods, or merely to obtain
credit ; the prisoner was just as liable for the latter as the
former.

The prisoner was thee spin remanded, in order to pro-
cure the necessary witnesses from Hamburg, where the
goods bad been sent, Wog admitted to bail in two sureties
in 2001. each and himself in 4001.

Waller Crane, described as a traveller, was charged with
cutting and wounding Christopher Crane, his brother, with
intent to murder him.

flat=Watts,Hithbery New Park, deposed that on
night led, about WI-past 7 (Mock, be wee in his
house, when he heard a knocking at the window, and re-
peated cries of " Murder." He hurried oqt, and maw a man
lying on the ground in a dreadful condition from some
wounds he had received. With the help of • policeman be
conveyed him to a neighbouring surgeon's, and from thence
he was removed to the hospital.
Barker—What do you know of the cause of the
Innee
Witness—l never maw the man until I discovered him es
I have described, neither did I see the prisoner at that
time.

Police-constable George Ilerrisou, 221 N, deposed—l was
on duty about half-pest 7 o'clock on Saturday evening In
Highbury New Park, when I heard loud arise of "Murder,"
and on going to the spot I found a man lying in the area.
He was much wounded, and the last wittier was endea-
vouring to raise him.
George Parsons, police-coestable 47 N, said—From what
the wounded man told roe I prooseded on Saturday night,
about • quarter-past 11 o'clock, to No. 20, Ormsby-
street, Kingeland-road, when the prisoner lives. I found
him io the poems undressed, as if about to
retire to bed. I said, " Your brother has charged you
with attempting to murder him." The prisoner said " 'have
not seen him to-night." I said, " You must go with me to
the station." I looked about the place and found • pair of
sheen wet and covered with clay, and I then saw that the
prisoner bad on another pair quite dry. On caning to the
station, and while in the passage, 1 wee told by a constable
who bad been sent to the hospital to ase how the injured ma
was, that he left him in a very bad state. I add to the pri-
soner " Your brother is very bad ;" he &amend, "It's a
bad job, but I suppose I shall get over it somehow."
The prisoner here said—That is false; I never made use of
such words.

At ibis Point of the inquiry a life-preserver was produced
with which some of the injuries had been inflicted. It is
composed of gotta perch& furnished with a loaded end, ren-
dering it a most dreadful weapon. The clothes of the in.
jured man were likewise produced. The waistcoat was tore
oompletely acmes, sad with the coat and other articles,
wan soaked in Wood.
A constable having been despatched to St. &ramie-
mew's Hospital, where the unfortunate man lies, returned,
and the following certificate was handed to the magistrate :
—" Bartholomew'. Hospital, Dec. 9.—1 do hereby certify
that Christopher Crane was admitted on December the 7th,
with wounds on hie head, and is unable to leave the
hospital.—T. S. Ellie, House-surgeon."
The prisoner, on being asked what be had to my to the
charge, replied with great composure—l shall reserve my
defence if I am to be committed for trial.

Mr. Barker said the ease was one of a most serious nature,
and he should therefore remand the prisoner for a few days,
in order to see what progress the injured man made, and
for the full evidence with rased to the attempt upon his
life.

The prisoner was then remanded until Saturday next.
LAMBETH. _

Henry Sermon Hanwnd, a lemon of respectable appear-
ance, who described himself as a genteel &goat, was brought
up from Poetess coo a warrant by Spinks, one of the summon-
' ing officers, and charged with deserting his wife and three
children, and leaving them chargeable to the pariah of
Camberwell,and further with intermarrying with Mn. Luny
Bandon, widow, his former wife, Catherine, being at the
time and still living.
Mr. Sedgeley, one of the relieving officers of Camberwell
parish, said that about three weeks ago Mrs. Hammed and
her three children became chargeable to his parish, and
from information he then sod since obtained be should
on • future day be able to establish a charge of
bigamy spinet the prisoner. He found that in the
month of May. 1843, the prteoeee was married to his wife,
whose maiden name was Walsh, at the parish church of
East Hein Ease:, end that in October, 1880, be had also
been marred at the district church of St. George, Bat-
tersea, to Mrs. Amoy Bandon, widow. The Best wife was
present, and there could be no doubt of that nistriage, and
of the wood there could be as little, as the prisoner did
not deny it ; but be (Mr. Sedgeley) should, on a future day,
be prepared with abundant evidence of the fact.
The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said he hoped hie
wife would forgive him, and that the magistrate would
allow bin, to return to her, when he should prove by his
future conduct how sincerely he regretted what he had
done.
__

The Magistrate told him it was impowdble he
could comply with his request, and remanded him to •
future day.
