--Two lads, apparently from 10 to 12 years of age,
named John O'Hara and Edward Kearney, were brought
up on the charge of stealing molasses. Police-officer
04 stated that on Monday evening he saw them take
the-bung -olit of a cask of molasses -lying-on the quay at
King's Dock, and fill a can with it. He consequently
lodged them in bridewell. They had both been before
the magistrates previously, who, on the present occasion,
sentenced them to three day's' imprisonment, and to be
whipped.
YOUR SIN WILL FIND You OUT.—Mary Jane North,
a character well known to the police for sundry delin-
quencies in the shape of housebreaking, &c., and who
has already undergone four year's' penal servitude, was
brought up on the charge of entering into a house in
Burlingtk-street, by means of skeleton keys, about
twelve months ago, and stealing a large quantity of
wearing apparel. Several of the articles were found the
same night in the shop of Mr. Keogh, pawnbroker, who
gave the police the description of the prisoner. She
has, however, contrived to elude their vigilance since
that tittle till yesterday, when she was apprehended.
I She was remanded till to-day,

(Before Messrs. SHAND and RATHDONE.)
CLAIM AGAINST A BITItIAL SOClETY.—Patrick Cearns
summoned the Liverpool Legal Friendly Burial Society/
for the sum of £B, which he alleged to be due to him.
from the society, in consequence of the death of a person>
whose life he had insured in it. Mr. Cobb 'and, Mr._
Black appeared fOr complainant ; and
instructed by Mr. Roby, for the defence. Mr. Black
stated the circumstance of the case to be as follows :
About two years ago, the complainant insured the life
of Thomas Brown in the most respectable society in
England, the Paoyal Liver Burial Society. On the advice,
Inwever, of -one John Ellis, a collector of the LiverpOol
Legal Friendly Society, he transferred him to it. The
-transfer took place on the 29th Nov., and Brown died on.
the sth December. About a week after Cearns accord-
ingly called upon Ellis, and told him of
_Brown's
decease. He sent him to the secretatT, who however
was not at home, and Ellis having- informed him there
was to be a meeting of committee the same evening,
advised him to wait on them. He did so, and at Ellis's
susgestion told them that Brown was his cousin, and
that Ellis had seen -him before the tracnsfer-toolplace.
He was promised payment. On a subsequent applica--
tion, however' the money was refused on the ground
that Brown had died in the workhouse, and had been
there several days before his decease. The complainant
was then called„and, on examination by Mr. Black,
madestatements corroborative of the foregoing. He was
cross-examined at great length by Mr. Deighton' in the
course of which he stated that Ellis had not seen Brown
before the transfer, and never desired to see him. He
did not know that Brown was suffering from bronchitis
at that time. He had no recollection of Ellis calling on
him and telling him tha it was felony to personate any.
-one nor did he say that that was the point where he had
lost himself. In appearing before the committee, he
only answered the questions as directed by Mr.-Ellis, and
as he was not on oath, thought there was no harm in
:telling a falsehood. In opeamg the case for the de-
fence, Mr. Deighton stated that the case was ad-
mitted so far. Thomas Brown was transferred upon
the 28th November. , Now at that time there .was a
person of that name lying in the workhous'e in such a
state that his death was almost a certainty. Cearns
took upon himself to transfer this man from one society
to another. These were the facts as admitted by his
clients, and as they are proved by the evidence of Mr.
+Cearns. It was a most extraordinary. thing that Mr.
Ellis should take a man into his society witlioUt first
seeing him.. There may be great competition between
the societies, but certainly it is not likely that the
-Collectcir of one seCietyaahould do -so-. ThereVaYano
motive for such conduct; there was nothing to be gained
but rather something lost. But he was certain- when
they had heard Mr. Ellis's account of the absurd story
told by the complainant, when they knew that' Brown
was no relation of Cearff§, and that he was transferred
-without any communication being made to him, when
-.Mr. Ellis told them that it is his duty to get.members
for the society, and to see that they are, in a good state
.of health, and when they know that a robust healthy
young man was presented to Mr. Ellis for his inspection,
as the-person Who'desired to be transferred; he was sure
,they. would decide in favour of his clients. It is
totally untrue that Mr. Ellis told him to say anything
false to the committee, and the reason that the money
was not paid was because Mr. Ellis saw the man who
personated Brown alive on ,the l Oth of December, at
least five days after the decease of the person on account
of whose death the money was claimed. Mr. Ellis was
then called, who briefly stated the nature of the trans-
action with Cearns, He did not solicit him' to enter
Brown in the society he is connected with, but the
complainant first mentioned the subject to him. Of
course he 'entertained the proposal ; was shown a man,
purporting to be Thomas Brown, who expressed
a wish to be transferred, - and said that Mr.
Cearns was to pay' for him. What he told
Cearns to say before the committee was in perfectly
good faith, as he was in the full belief that he had seen
Thomas Brown. 'When he saw the person shown him
by Cearns standing at the corner of a street after
Brown's death, he took measures to prevent the society
being defrauded.—The magistrates considering the con-
tradictory nature of the evidence, and the fact that
Cearns himself admitted having told a deliberate false-
hood, deemed it right to dismiss the case.

fits at Canobie have struck work, owing to some misun-

men intend makin' a personal- application to the noble
proprietor, requesting his interference;" and this course
is recommended by several influential gentlemen in the

should be made without delay, as ,the pits afford the
only supply of coal to a wide district,—Seotomie,

'The Cotton market to-day was dull, almost 'to
flatness ;ot-lie sales being limited‘tO 3,000 bales,
all to.the trade; but at prices rather in favour of
the buyer.
In. the Liverpool Share market there was a
,great-degree of apathy, and scarcely any business
was done. Prices showed a dwindling tendency,
and the market closed-heavily. The transactions
included sales of the following stock at the an-
nexed prices, Great Western, '094 ; Lancasbfire
_and Yorkshire, 991, t, 1 ; Lancaster and

pression of yesterday :

MONEY MARKET, &c.
The -nglish funds opened steadily this morning, but
a number of realisations took place, and the Market was
ultimately-influenced by dull accounts from the Paris
Bourse. There has been less demand for discount to-
day; and at the Bank only a'mOderate 'minium of appli-
cations took place. The Imilway market has, been
inactive, but fairly supported, 'and in some stocks .a
fractional advance has taken place.—Times.
Tho funds to-day were dull. An improvement of 2- per
cent., which occurred in the morning, was soon lost.
The final prices were about the same as those of Satur-
day, but the market at close exhibited-rather. a flat tone:
In the share market there was alsa a little dulness.
The demand for money is still fax less than usual for the
season of the year. The best bilis are discounted at 21.
to 24 per cent. There were no transactions-in gold at
the Bank to-day.-,Dady Hews.
