JUDGMENTS.

STEAM COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LIVERPOOL

KNOWLES v. BRECKENRIDOE.—In referring to this
case, his Honour said he experienced great difficulty in
arriving at a conclusion, and was doubtful how far it
might not, even yet, be desirable that the parties should
have recourse to the mode usually adopted by mercantile
gentlemen to arrange such questions. As none of the
parties concerned was present, he should not go any
further into the case then, but before leaving it, and
without saying for whom his judgment would be, he
might say, as some misapprehension appeared to exist
upon the subject, that he had found Mr. Breckenridge's
books in all respects quite correct. The whole of the un-
pleasant dispute between those gentlemen had arisen
from the very careless and inaccurate manner in which
the signatures for the delivery of goods had been
obtained by the servants, and entered in the books of
the Dundalk Company.
IN RE-TURNER, AN INSOLVENT.—This was a case in
which judgment, on the petition of insolvent, had been
delayed, for the purpose of considering an objection,
made by Mr. Husband, to the affidavit on which the
petition was founded, as having been sworn before a
commissioner of the Courts at Westminster, instead of
a master extraordinary in Chancery, as prescribed by
the statute. His Honour decided that the objection
was a fatal one, and accordingly dismissed the petition,
adding, however, that the officers of the court would
afford every facility for the insolvent making a new
application at as little cost as possible.

IN RE=BROWN, AN INSOLVENT. —This petition was also
dismissed by his Honour, upon an objection nearly
similar to that in the previous case.

HARRISON V. THE LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE RAIL-
WAY COMPANY.—In this case, which was an action
brought to recover the value of a quantity of olive oil,
spilt from a cask, while in the custody of the company's
servants, his Honour delivered judgment for the plain-
tiff.

FRAUD SummoNsEs.—His Honour stated that he had
received a letter from a party, complaining that he had
been prevented from obtaining a situation, in conse-
quence of its having been reported that he had been
brought up in that court upon a fraud summons, whereas
he had only appeared to ask that additional time might
be granted. His Honour said he was very sorry if any
one had suffered inconvenience or loss, in consequence
of such a mistake, and would most gladly do all in his
power to remedy the evil, if he had been made ac-
quainted all the facts of the case. These, however, had
not been furnished by the writer, and he could conse-
quently do nothing in it. It should be known, that in
ordinary cases, a fraud summons did not necessarily
imply anything against the moral character of the party
summoned. It might, as indeed in not a few cases it
did, only mean that the party was unable to pay. The
case must, in every instance, be judged of according to
the manner in which it was treated by the court.
The mistake in question probably arose from an error in
some of the published reports of the business of the
court, which, however, were usually very accurately
given. [We may remark, that the usual practice in this
jonrnal is only to publish such cases as have in them
something distinctive, which renders them publicly
interesting or important. The practice of publishing in
a newspaper a list of names of parties summoned for
ordinary non-payment of trifling sums, where the
circumstances possess no peculiarity whatever, can only
have the effect of giving occasionally unnecessary pain
to individuals, without affording any greater interest to
the public, than would be produced by publishing at
random any column from the Liverpool Directors]
OF BUSINESS.—This being the opening
day of the first June Court, the following arrangement
of the business was made :—Wednesday (this day), 120
cases ; Thursday, 122 ; Friday, 120 ; Tuesday, 10th
June, 120; Wednesday, 151; Thursday, 30 cases for
amounts of £lO and upwards ; Friday, 62, and some
adjourned cases. The entire number of cases to be dealt
with in this court is 725.

POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY.

(BEFORE MR. ALDERMAN TURNER.)
ALLEGED HORSE STEALING.—A young man, named
James Godfrey, was charged by Michael Holmes with
stealing a horse from him. It appeared that the case,
as most horse cases are, was one of a very complicated
nature. The prisoner was in partnership, as a horse
dealer, with a man named Woodward, and there was a
great deal of " trucking " about the horse. Mr. Bluck,
who appeared for the prisoner, enlightened the case, by
showing that the prisoner's partner and the prisoner had
a dispute about the sale of the horse, and that this diffe-
rence resulted in the prisoner's going to the complain-
ant's stable and taking the horse, for which he was given
into custody. Mr. Bluck contended that there was no
felony in the case, and his worship agreeing in that view
of the matter discharged the prisoner.
CAUGHT AT LAST.—John Brannan, "an old hand,"
was brought up by Inspector Murphy, on a charge of
having stolen a diamond ring, value £B, from the shop
of Mr. Woods, jeweller, Hanover-street. On the 28th
May, the prisoner went to the shop of Mr. Woods, and
asked to see some rings, and, whilst under pretence of
buying one, he managed to steal one, value as above,
and immediately afterwards he pledged it at Mr. Critch-
ley's, London-road, for £2. Mr. Bluck was for the
prisoner, but the only question he raised was as to the
identity of the prisoner, and this being proved beyond
donbt, the prisoner was sent for trial.
CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—Some days ago, a young
man named Edward Conway, who was in the employ-
ment of Mr. Byford, pawnbroker, was charged with
having embezzled a sum of £2 10s. The case was fully
reported at the time. and yesterday he was brought up
on remand, when Mr. Martin appeared fur the prosecu-
t;on, and Mr. Simon (barrister), for the defence. After
a lengthy investigation the magistrate was about to com-
mit the prisoner, but in consequence of an appeal made
to Mr. Byford he withdrew the charge, for which he
received the highest compliments for his kindness, both
from the bench, Mr. Simon, and the young man's friends,
who are respectable. The prisoner was then discharged
with a caution.

EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ALLEGED
BURGLARY IN GREAT HOWARD-STREET.

ROBBERY OF £450 WORTH OF WATCHES.—A young
man, named David Millar, who spoke with a German
accent, and who had been employed in the shop of Mr.
Lewin Berrick, a watchmaker, carrying on business in
Great Howard-street, was charged by that person on
suspicion of having broken open his premises, and stolen
watches to the amount of £450 from the safes and
drawers. Mr. Martin appeared for the prosecution.
Detective officer Laycock said, he apprehended the
prisoner on the above charge, he being given into cus-
tody by Mr. Berrick.
Police officer 544 said he was on duty in Great
Howard-street, at ten minutes to five o'clock on Monday
morning, when he found Mr. Berrick's shop door open.
He alarmed Mr. Berrick, who slept on the premises,
and, on getting up, he ran to the drawers and found
them all ransacked, the safe open, and all his watches
gone. The prisoner and Mr. Berrick slept in the same
room, and the witness passed on the word to the detec-
tives, and Laycock came and arrested the prisoner.
Mr. Berrick said, he left the shop and all the property
in the care of the prisoner on Sunday. He locked up
and fastened the shop on Saturday night, and left
all the property safe in the drawers and the
iron safe. He was out at his father's on Sunday,
and had a heavy supper with a glass of porter, and then
a strong glass of gin, and this caused him to sleep very
soundly. The prisoner slept in the same room with
witness, and he (witness) had the keys of the safe in his
pocket all right, and when he was called up by the police
he found the safe open, and the property gone. Officer
544 said he got some skeleton keys on the floor of the
shop, but there did not appear to have been any marks
on the door, as if broken in from the outside.
Detective Laycock said there were some marks on the
door cheeks, but no appearance of an entry. The iron
safe was not broken, but appeared to have been opened
by the regular key.
Mr. Turner : Was there anything of the missing
property found ?
Detective Laycock : Nothing has been found, sir.
Mr. Martin : This is a case of great suspicion against
the prisoner, and I think you will deem it necessary to
remand him for further examination.
Mr. Turner said it was a curious case. He asked the
prisoner if he had anything to say ?
The prisoner said he suspected that Mr. Berrick had
done it himself. He said his worship ought to examine
Mr. Berrick himself about the property.
In reply to Mr. Turner, the prosecutor said he slept
in the same room with the prisoner, and about four
yards from his bed. He slept very heavy after the
supper ; the porter and gin he had at his father's. His
clothes were on a rail, and the keys were in his pocket.
The keys were found in his pocket on the morning, the
same as he left them.

Mr. 'Wybergh : And at what time were you called ?
At five o'clock in the morning.
Mr. Wybergh : And where was the prisoner then
In bed in the room.

Prisoner : If the door was not broken in by robbers, it
was done by Mr. Berrick himself, and by no one else.
He has not given the numbers of the watches.
Mr. Berrick : I have given the numbers as well as I
could from the books.

Mr. Clough, chief superintendent said : I have
examined all the officers in this case, and they all agree
to the fact that there was no breaking whatever from
without, so that the whole affair lies between the prose-
cutor and the prisoner. Please to remand the case till
to-morrow.
The prisoner was accordingly remanded.

ENGLAND AND THE UNITED STATES,

The Times thinks that the last news from America
leaves us little reason to doubt that the government of
General Pierce will not stop short in the career on which it
has embarked, but will follow the reception of the Minister
of General Walker by the dismissal of the Minister of
Queen Victoria. Still, even the dismissal of Mr. Cramp-
ton, and the dismissal of Mr. Dallas, which must imme-
diately succeed it, by no means imply a state of war, or
are even uccessary preludes to that dire calamity. The
absence of an Ambassador may, in some degree, diminish
the apprehension of danger—when one party is bent
upon fixing a quarrel upon the other the fewer points of
contact they have the more likely is the desire of the
more pacific part to be attained. The Times thinks that,
as soon as the presidential question is settled, the war
with which we are threatened for electioneering pur-
poses may cease to be imminent. We must not endure
an insult, but we must not be eager or anxious in
endeavouring to discover offence, even where it may
have been intended.

The Emperor of Russia passed through Berlin at one
o'clock this morning on his way from Potsdam to St.
Petersburg.

The French journals contain alarming accounts of the
damage caused by the inundations, which is, however,
confined to certain localities.
PARIS, Tuesday.—By decree, the Emperor has ordered
that a sum of 30,000 francs should be given as a relief
to the victims of the inundation of Lyons.
Notwithstanding the excessive rains, the injury done
to the crops is not general. The wine market at Bercey
is calm, as the injury done to the vine by frost is said to
have been greatly exaggerated.
A correspondent of the Berlin Bourse Gazette affects
to know, positively, that the Czar's visit to the Court of
Prussia has been promoted by his desire to see his
Danubian principalities united under the sovereignty of
a German Prince.

BERLIN, June 2.—From St. Petersburg we learn that
it is now positive that Baron Budberg is to be Russian
Minister at Vienna. Baron Brunow, at present at Paris,
will come to Berlin, and Prince Dolgorouki, late
Minister at War, will go to Paris.

The Paris correspondent of the Tines says, that the
new law on the press in Belgium applies to the stamp,
the signing of the article with the author's name, and
the power given to the law officers of the Crown to insti-
tute proceedings without the necessity of a previous
demand from a foreign government.
THE MAYORALTY OE SOUTHAMPTON.—Mr. Richard
Andrews, the well known coachbuilder, of Southampton,
was, on Saturday, elected mayor of that town in the
room of Sampson Payne, Esq., deceased. It is 134 years
since a chief magistrate of Southampton died during
his year of office, and it is remarkable that in that year,
viz., 1722, a Mr. R. Andrews was elected to fill the civic
chair during the remainder of the year.
THE CAPE OP Goon HOPE.—Letters and papers from
the Cape of Good Hope to the Bth of April have come to
hand, but they do not contain any political news of
interest. Mr. Solomon carried a motion in the House of
Assembly that a committee be appointed to consider the
best means for promoting immigration, in accordance with
the suggestions made by his Excellency the Governor in
his speech on the opening of Parliament. The bill for pre-
venting the spread of infectious or contagious diseases,
introduced by government, has been promptly considered,
and there is every evidence that the members are fully
aware of the importance of such a measure.
PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS FROM POISONOUS
SUBSTANCES.—The Dublin College of Physicians lately
directed that all poisonous fluids or substances should be
kept in square bottles, whilst all others might be placed
in round ones. The authorities in France are also very
anxious to prevent fatal mistakes, and, with this view, it
has just been ordered that all poisonous substances or
fluids which are dispensed by pharmaciens should bear
labels of a bright orange.red colour, so that even illiterate
persons should at once be made aware that caution is
necessary respecting the contents of the bottle bearing, as
it were, such a conspicuous signal.—Modical Observer.
