Mr. HEADLAM thought that no serious objections bad
hen raised a,„%inst them locomotives. He was in favour of
the measure, but he only expressed his own opinion, and
wished to be undentood as not speaking on the part of the
government
Mr. BUCHANAN suggested that it would be desirable
there should be some uniformity of poetic*. An act had
been pared on the subject of tramways, in which munici-
palities had power given them to intenlict their introduc-
tion ; whereas tramways were much lee formidable then
those new locomotives. He thought that the authority to
lio.e.e them should be local rather than placed in the hands
of the socreLoy of State.
Colonel W. PATTEN objected to give the town councils
power to superse.le the legislative functions of parliainnt.
e Lel taken the trouble to trice the progress of a man
with a 11, g•cart proceeding from the south to the north of
Eoglaml. In one town he would be allowed to pan free ;
in the next be would be imprisoned, and so on alternately
throogbout the whole journey. (Hear, bear.)
Alderman SIDNEY did not see why the town councils
should mot be allowed to judge of what wee expedient within
their respective jurisdictions. For hie own tart, he droney
objected to the introduction of locomotives within the
metropolis.
Mr. SOTHERON-FMTCOURT objected is strongly as
possible to give power to any local authority to authorise
tramways in the escrow streets of our cities ; but the ease
of locomotives was quite different. He was content to leave
the matter in the hands of the Secretary of State, who
would, of course, consult the local authorities, and, if oe-
cemary, semi down an inspector.
Sir 0. LEWIS thought that the committee might fairly
agree to the amendment of the hoc. baronet the member
for Westmiuster. As to the arnealment of the hon.
eemsber for Devizes, he was not ambitious of exercising
the power, but he thought there was some force in the ob.

After/ems farther distemin words were omitted from
the doom to make way fee Sir J. Shelley's amendment.

Yr. GRIFFITH then moved to amend that anion lmet
by meeting the following words : —" Nor without a licence
fer that marpoise being lint obtained from the mayor and
tows coursed or other chief municipal authority of such bo-
rto be granted under their common seal,seal,within the
liTit of say munkipal or parliamentary borough."
Colonel PATTEN said that if this amendment 110111
speed to it would destroy the bill altogether. It would
mho it a bill set to regulate, but to annul. At present
these earthen had pewee to run from Southampton to
/IMMO' ; Mt if the ameeehnent passed it would give
*my teem esweed on the way power to stop their program.

Muse give then every micormagenie.nt in its power. (Hear.)

Sir C. Creaswell had carefully real and considered the
affidavits, in which he found some very remarkable matters.
For instance, Mn. Rowley admitted that she had desired
her attorney to propose that if her husband did not make
a vicious defence else would not press for her costs—nay,
she said she would even go so far as to pay his costa ;
proposals which might have gone fur to isduae the court to
dismiss the petition under any circumstances. In soother
part of her affidavit she stated that on being asked whether
die would leave her case in the hands of the Solicitor-
General, she said after some hesitation, " Well, yea." Then
she went on to describe what she supposed he would do.
But when a lady consented to place herself In the hands of

allow the case to be placed again on the list.

the following members were present :—Mr. Villiers (chair-

K Howard, Colonel Pennant, Mr. Baxley, Lord Femioy,
Mr. 8. Estcourt, Mr. Bouverie, Sir W. Jolliffe, Mr. M.
Mimes and Mr. Ayrton.
Mr. Turner, of St. Pancras Union, was called, and stated,
in reply to the chairman. that he was of opinion that the
Romancatholic priests ought not to have unrestricted admis-
sion to the catholic inmates of unions. They had •
list of the Roman catholics in the St. Pancraa
Workhouse, and when they applied to go out on
Sunday to their own churches that list was re.
ferred to, to see if their names were on it. It did not
' prejudice a man at all in St. Pancras Workhouse to say he
was a Roman catholic. With respect to orphan children
being brought to the workhouse, he did not think it at all
necessary to inquire what was the religion of the parents.
In the case of orphan children whose parents were both
well known to have been Roman catholics to the workhouse
authorities, he did think the children ought to be brought
up in the established religion. The same thing would he
done in the case of a Wesleyan or a Baptist child. There
were about WO children in the school ; none of those were
recognised as Roman catholics, they were all educated toge-
ther in the same manner. Supposing the Roman catholic
inmates were equal orf nearly equal in number to the pro-
testants, he should still object to • paid Roman catholic
priest being appointed on the same terms as the protestant
chaplain. In such a case he did not think there would be
much peace in the house. It wits perfectly well known that
Roman catholic parents can object to their children being
brought up as pmteatants. He objected to a creed register
being kept, on account of its being of an inquisitorial cha-
racter ; he though they had no right to inquire into any
one's religion. Heknew that • number of the Roman catholic
inmates in St. PADCZY Workhouse had applied for the mi-
nistration of the protestant chaplain. The witness here
reed a letter from a Scripture reader, on the authority of
which he made that statement.

At six o'clock the case for the prosecution was concluded,
and the learned judge expressed hu rea.liness to adjourn the
trial to the following day, if that course woo agreeable to all
parties.
Mr. Hawkins said he woo very desirous that the case
should be brought to a conclusion that night, and the jury,
upon being appealed to, said they would rather not be kept
away from their families all night.
The trial was accordingly proceeded with, but a short ad-
journment took place, in order that the jury might have
some refreshment.

Upon the re-aaserabling of the court an objection was
taken, on behalf of the prisouers, that they could not be
convicted of larceny, inasmuch as there was no proof that
the stuns alleged to have been stolen were not • portion of
the sums actually paid in by Holcroft, and that Si all events
the amounts were so mixed together that it was impossible
to ny that it was the money of the bank. It was also
contended that if any offence at all had been committed it
was obtaining money by false pretences.
Mr. Baron Bramwell, after a long technical discussios,
said that the law of larceny was so artificial, that be should
not take upon biinself to stop the case upon the technical
objection that tool been raised, but he would consult Mr.
Justice Crompton upon the point if it should become neces-
sary, and if he agreed with him that the question was one
deserving further coed& ration he would reserve the point
of law for the Court of Criminal Appeal. He should decide
at present, however, that the case must go to the jury.
Mr. Metcalfe said that on the part of his client burden
he should decline laying anything to the jury upon the
facts.
Mr. Hawkins then made a most powerful speech to the
jury on behalf of the other phonier. Ho rid he would not
deny theta gross fraud had bean committed upon the bank,
but at the same time he hoped the jury. would not jump
hastily to the conclusion that both the prisoners must have
been concerned in it, and that whatever might be their opi.
Dion with regard to the share one of the prisoners bad taken
in the transaction, they would not convict Holcroft of
having taken a guilty part in the affair upon the evidence
that had been laid before them. He then proceeded to
argue that there could be no doubt that Holeroft had been
carrying on a respectable business, and that there was not
the slightest imputation upon his character until this
transaction. He could not deny that the
of the bank had been tampeied with, and that
by means of this tampering with the hooka the
bank had been robbed of a large amount of money, but the
oely question the jury had to decide was whether the ord.
donee established that Ha lcruft had acted with a guilty
know) in the transaction. The learned counsel then
to argue that there We nothing whatever in the
case to show that Holcroft lad not been made a dupe of by
Durdeu, who, finding that be could not carry out his scheme
of fraud without assistance, pitched upon Holeroft, with
whom he was on friendly terms, nml to whom he had acted
as e friend, to render him that assistance • and be
contended that in all the proceedings that afterwards took
place he had merely acted us his innocent agent.
He reminded the jury that Darden was looked upon sa a
man of high in •tmeity. and that the utmost confidence was
placed in him by the directors of the bank, and that core.
quently a man in the isositiou of Holcroft was very likely
to have listened to any proposition that was made by a man
like IMrden, and that he might have thoughtlessly con-
seated to allow Durden to place money to his account,
without having the slightest suspicion that by so doing he
was rendering him every assistance in plundering the beak
of their money. The learned counsel, in his concluding obser-
vation., particularly urged up the attention of the jury that
the prisoner had voluntarily offered to give a tulle:i
of everything connected with the transaction, which,
said, was just what would be expected from an innocent
man, and that he was not permitted to give that explana-
tion ; and he urged that, at all create, the evidence spinet
the prisoner was not at all conclusive, and that there was
sufficient doubt in the case to justify the jury in acquitting
tie prisoner.
A great many highly respectable witnesses were called to
"ask to the character of Holcroft, and they described him
as en honest, honourable man, and as being remarkably cor-
rect ie all his dealings.. .

By Alderman Sidney—He had no doubt the protestant
chaplain invited those people to attend his instructions.
Lord E. Howard—Then, you think it fair that the pro-
testant chaplain shall have the power and opportunity at
any time to go about the house canvassing the Roman
catholic inmates to attend his service, while you will not
allow the priest to have access to his people without special
leave obtained for that purpose have no doubt the
chaplain would igo about among the inmates generally for
that purpose without stopping to inquire what were their
particular creeds.
The witness went on to say that if a Roman catholic was

of fact, be was opposed to any change whatever in the
