LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUP TCY.
(Before Mr Registrar Winslow as Commiesioner.)
IN RE O.GONNOR.

This was an application for order of discharge, and also
far release from custody.

Mr Lewis opposed on behalf of a Mr Tyler, the detaining
creditor. The objection was that Tyler had brought an
action against the bankrupt in a County Court for a mali-
cious imprisonment, and he recovered the full amount of
damages the Court could award, viz., £6O. The case was'
then removed by cotiorari into the Court of Queen's Bench
and bankrupt was taken in execution. He applied in May
last for his release, which, however, was refused,
Mr Dauncy now u-ged that the bankrupt was entitled to
his discharge, as he had suffered sufficient punishment by
his imprisonment, and if tha discharge were granted he,
would be entitled to his release.
The learned Registrar said that on Saturday in the case of
Tubbs a similar application was made, but there was a
difference in the cases; in that the bankrupt held adverse
possession, and continued to do so. In the present case
the judgment became a debt, from which he would be re-
lieved by the order of discharge, which would be now
granted, and also the order of release.

IN RE SALMON AND IVALLOCIE.
The bankrupts carried on business as boot and shoe
manufacturers in the Hackney-road, and this was a meet-
ing for examinaticn and discharge. The accounts show
Dr. to Cr. unsecured £10,786 ; holding security, £53,078 ;
liabilities, £224. Cr., Property in hands of creditors,
£70,836 ; ditto, given up, £356.
Mr Brougb., for the assignees, said that the bankrupt
Salmon had died since the bankruptcy. The failure was
uwing to the bankrupt having made large consignments of
leather to Australia, which had resulted unfavourably.
There was no opposition, and the order of discharge was
granted.

LORD MAYOR'S COURT.
(Before the Recorder and a Common Jury.)
BONELLI'S ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY-ATTACH-

MENT CASE.

This was an attachment casein which the plaintiff (Borill)
sought to recover £1,376 monies in the hands of the gar-
nishcrs to the credit of the defendants.

Mr Mathew, for the plaintiff, said that the defendants were
indebted to his clients in and above the sum now sought to be
recovered. As there was no defence to the present proceed-
ings, the only question for the jury was whether a certain
sum of money was in the hands of the garnishees.
Mr Rinby said—l was a clerk in the Agra and United
Service Bank, On June 20th Bonelli's Electric Company
had a deposit account at the bank. The balance on June
30th was £1,376.
As no one appeared for the defendants his lordship
directed the jury to return a verdict for the plaintiff.

Verdict for the plaintiff.
A LONG ERASE AFTER A DEBTGE,--DUFFIELD T. ROSE.
This was an action to recover for the hire of a saddle and
bridle some years ago. Mr. Philbriek appeared for the
plaintiff.
Mr Duffield said that some years ago he lent the defendant
a chaise and harness. Defendant pledged them, and wit-
ness travelled nearly 200 miles before he could discover
them. In addition to this defendant hired a saddle and
bridle, for which he was to pay so much per week. Wit-
ness lost sight of the defendant for a long time, but a short
time since he saw the name of Rose up over a door in
Brixton, and found his debtor.
No one appearing for the defendant, his lordship said that
.C3l 4s seemed a large sum for the hire of a saddle and
bridle, but as defendant had never put an end to the hiring,
plaintiff was entitled to a verdict.
'I he jury found for the plaintiff for the amount sought to
be recovered.
His Leriship—lf you get your money as well as your
verdict, you will be well remunerated, Mr Duffield.
Plaintiff—I do not expect to get one farthing.

Mr Buchanan asked the plaintiff if he had ever seen the

_ Plaintiff—No.
Mr Wood called a witness to prove that the name of Cox
was painted up over the door.
His Honour—No doubt the name was over the door,
but that is not enough. Putting a name over a door will
not make a man responsible.
Mr Wood—l have a witness here who called for the
money.
A witness stepped forward and said—.j called on the de-
