LAW INT:

This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY,
(Before Mr Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE TIGHE.

This bankrupt was described as of Richmond-terrace,
Clapham-road, gentleman, and sometime of the Queen's
Hotel, Liverpool, and Carter-street, Manchester. The
debts amount to about £1,000; no assets, and the debts are
generally for goods and money borrowed, and some bills for
renewals of debts under a former insolvency.
Mr Aldridge said that the case had been before the Court
since September, 1862, and there had been several adjourn-
ments; but the bankrupt was now in attendance.
Mr E. Reed opposed on behalf of two creditors, and said
that the bankrupt had obtained adjourn ments on the pre
tence that he was endeavouring; to arrange with the cre-
ditors. He (Mr Reed) had now to ask for an adjournment,
sene die, without protection. _ _

There was also opposition on behalf of several other
creditors; but .

•
His Honour adjourned the case, sine die, without pro
tection.

IN RE BRANDON AND NOAH.

These bankrupts were described as of Abchurch-lane and
Lawrence Pountney-lane, wine merchant; and this was
a meeting on application for discharge. The debts are
stated at £59,902. To creditors on consignment, £26,317;
less property consigned, £23,424; creditors holding secu-
rity, £2,725; liabilities on snares, £225; ditto on bills dis-
counted, £1,070; ditto bills payable, £4,044; creditor by
good debts, £2,273; doubtful £225; property given up,
£2 445; ditto in the hands of creditors, £2,097 ; deficiency,
£26,508.

Mr. Read, for the assignees, opposed, and Mr. Sargood
and Mr Brough for the bankrui ts.
The opposition was that some of the debts had been con-
tracted without reasonable or probable ground for expecte-
teflon of being able to pay, and, aecondly, that the bank-
rupts had entered into rash and hazardous speculations.
The case was not called on till 1 o'clock, and is likely to
occupy the remainder of the day, •

speaking in support of the bill.

Mr. GREENALL said he would readily support any
well-considered measure of reform, but he could not accept
the present bill, which he did not think would tend to settle
the question.

Sir J. ELPHINSTONE made a vigorous speech, scarcely
a word of which could be heard further than that he
threatened to denounce on the hustings " the organised
hypocricy of the Liberal party." _

The house divided upon the previous question—namely,

By this vote the house refused to allow the question to be

CHARGE OF ASSAULTING MR. WIN-Dium,-_Emma
Yarnold, a young woman, was placed at the bar, before
Mr Knox, charged with assaulting Mr. W. F: Windham,
of Upper Westbourne-terrace.

On the case being called on, Mulcahy, 42 C, stated that
Mr Windham was not in attendance, although he pro-
mised to attend.
Mr Knox inquired of the constable the nature of the
case ; and Mulcahy said that about three o'clock this
morning he saw a number of women following Mr, Wind-
ham about in Piccadilly. Mr Windham gave the young
Woman in charge for annoying him, and she then slapped
his face three times. Mr Windham then charged her
with assaulting him.
Mr Knox asked the constable whether the young woman
stated why she was following Mr. Windham.
Mulcahy said the young woman stated that Mr Wind-
ham, while in the Haymarket, knocked her about, and tore
her dress.
Mr Knox inquired of the constable whether Mr Wind-
ham was sober.
Mulcahy said Mr Windham seemed very excited.
Mr Knox observed that, as Mr Windham was not present,
he should but if Mr Wind-

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY,
(Before Mr Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE TIGHE.

This bankrupt was described as of Richmond-terrace,
Clapham-road, gentleman, and sometime of the Queen's
Hotel, Liverpool, and Carter-street, Manchester. The
debts amount to about £1,000; no assets, and the debts are
generally for goods and money borrowed, and some bills for
renewals of debts under a former insolvency.
Mr Aldridge said that the case had been before the Court
since September, 1862, and there had been several adjourn-
ments; but the bankrupt was now in attendance.
Mr E. Reed opposed on behalf of two creditors, and said
that the bankrupt had obtained adjourn ments on the pre
tenco that he was endeavouring to arrange with the cre-
ditors. He (Mr Reed) had now to ask fur an adjournment,
aloe die, without protection.
There was also opposition on behalf of several other
creditors; but

His Honour adjourned the case, sine dic, Without pro
tection.

IN RE BRANDON AND NOAR.

These bankrupts were described as of Abchurch-lane and
Lawrence Pountney-lane, wine merchants, and this was
a meeting on application for discharge. The debts are
stated at £59,902. To creditors on consignment, £26,317 ;
less property consigned, £23,424; creditors holding secu-
rity, £2,725; liabilities on snares, £22.5; ditto on bills dis-
counted, £1,070; ditto bills payable, £4,044; creditor by
good debts, £2,273; doubtful £225; property given up,
£2,445; ditto in the hands of creditors, £2,097 ; deficiency,
£26,508.

Mr. Read, for the assignees, ()posed, and Mr. Sargood
and Mr Brough for the bankruits.
The opposition was that some of the debts had been con-
tracted without reasonable or probable ground for expeota-
tation of being able to pay, and, secondly, that the bank-
rupts had entered into rash and hazardous speculations.
The case was not called on till 1 o'clock, and is likely to
occupy the remainder of the day.

tested at almost every variety of outdoor work—in
excavating a stiff heavy clay soil to a ccnsiderable
depth, in draining, in stone-breaking, in road-
making, and in excavating for street sewers to a
depth of 14 26, and sometimes 20 feet. In many
cases while thus employed they are standing in
mud and water to the depth of 10 or 12 inches, and.
in all they are exposed to a climate which for chilly
humidity is not surpassed, I suppose, even if it is
equalled, in that of any district in England. Yet.
notwithstanding these disadvantages, I am free to
say that although I have been in daily contact with
the men and their superintendents, I have not
heard a single complaint as to the nature of the
work the men were sent to execute, except in cases
of sickness or bodily infirmity, and even these I ant
glad to say have been rare. Whatever may be the
shortcomings of the Lancashire operative, so far as
my experience has enabled me to judge, it cannot
be said of him with truth that he is either afraid
or ashamed to work. The nature of the
outdoor employments in which the men
are engaged shows further the beneficial
results which the Public Works Act is drawing
out of so great a distress as the cotton famine. It
is enabling towns to undertake and execute many
improvements which it would have been almost
impossible to succeed in without some very power-
ful motive. The interests of the owners of the
land, of the builders of house property, of rate-
payers, &c., are so various, and the increase of
towns so outran the possibility of simultaneous
sanitary arrangements, that it required the extra-
ordinary pressure of a great calamity to force so
many conflicting interests into agreement, and the
intervention of the Legislature has made provisions
to assist them in obtaining the requisite funds for
completing many very useful and much needed
public works.

KIDNAPPING IN THE UNITED STATES.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH drew the attention of
the noble earl the Secretary for Foreign Affairs to the kid-
napping of subjects of her Majesty in New York for the
purpose of enlisting in the army of the United States. It
was a subject of very serious moment, because men were
compelled to take up arms in America without the
slightest disposition on their part for such a pur-
pose. The persons kidnapped were mostly sailors,
and one case had occurred in which a surgeon sent
a sailor on shore to get a bath. He was inveigled to
a place where he was drugged, and he was not allowed to
come to himself until his ship had sailed, and then he
found himself dressed in the United States uniform. He
could not suppose her Majesty's Government was ignorant
of the proceedings, and he wished to ask what step had
been taken to protect her Majesty's subjects from such a
monstrous system.

Earl RUSSELL said that the bounty paid by the
United States Government for each man enlisted was as
much as 600 dollars, and unfortunately this was an induce-
ment to unprincipled persons to drug or otherwise keep in
their possession sailors or other persons until they could get
them to enlist, and thus profit by the bounty. He was sorry
to say that although Lord Lyons had complained to the
American authorities, he had not yet received any satisfac-
tory statement on the subject. It was the intention of her
Majesty's Government to make the strongest remonstrance
possible in order to put an end to the disgraceful practice
alluded to,

THE TRAFFIC AT PARK-LANE.

Gen. BUCKLEY asked whother some means could not
be adopted to prevent the dangerous traffic that exists at
Park-lane into Piccadilly ?
Mr. COWPER said that two policemen had been placed
in the neighbourhood to prevent as far as they could any
danger arising from the excess of traffic in Park-lane, which
was all that could be done at present.

Gen. BUChLEY said he had spoken to a policeman on
the spot, and he said he had no orders,

Mr. COWPER said the only real plan was to widen
Park-lane or to make a new street through Hamilton-
place, He (Mr. Cowper) had nothing to do with the pro-
perty, as it did not belong to the Crown. Application
should be made to tha Board of Works.:
Gen. BUCE LEY then addressed his question to the
Secretary of the Home Department.

Sir G. GREY said he was not the representative of the
Metropolitan Board of Works. (A laugh, and cries of
"Divide.")

Mr. TITE said he had no right to speak authoritatively,
but as a member of the Board of Works, he might state
that the subject was under the consideration of the board,
who would do all in their power to remove the present ob-
struction.
