SINGULAR
etßeu sTA.NCE.—About 27 or 30 years
ehdet or ecvo'm gentleman
ago a pair of solid silver candlesticks and a snuffer tray were
st
stolen from the rooms of the Rev. C. Smith, at that time a
fellow of St. Peter's-college. A few days after the robbery
Mr. Smith received a letter in some unknown hand, stating
mresattetererdr.efulls
that if he applied at the Britannia public-house and paid 2/.
imthanthbeeirneggucesot,nsacniednitmiomusethinattehlye
or 31., without asking any questions, the property would be
set two of the parish constables to watch ; they continued
to do so for several days and nights, in order to find out
whether there was any communication being carried on be-
tween the inmates of the house and any of the servants em-
ployed in the college, but without success, and the affair was
forgotten. On Wednesday last. however, as a man named
leyntwle
Sheriff, a labourer, was digging in the fields in Cherryhinton
parish, he turned op the identical candlesticks and snuffer
tray; and seeing something upon them indicative of the
owner, immediately conveyed them to the college, where
they were identified by Mr. John Boning, who was occasion-
ally employed by his father, who at the time of the robbery
was " spateo the owner. The candlesticks are in an ex-
cellent of preservation, and not at all the worse for
being buried such a length of time.— Cambridge Chronicle.
MONEY MARKET.—The quotation of gold at Paris
is about par (according to the new tariff), which,
at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 104 d. per ounce for
standard gold, gives a exchange of 25.17; and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short being 25.35, it follows
that gold is about 0.71 per cent. dearer in London than
in Paris. By advices from llamburgh the price of gold
is 427 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. 10d. per ounce tor standard gold, gives an exchange
of 13.6 ; and the exchange at liamburgh on London at
short being 13.71, it follows that gold is 0.70 per cent.
dearer in Londoa than in klamburgh.

LA W INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Jan. 14.
(Sittings in Bunco.)

ROT HSCHILD V. THE ROYAL MAIL STEAM •PACKET

COMPANY.

The ATTORNEY. GBNERAL---UOved for a rule in this
case, pursuant to leave reserved at the trial, to enter
the verdict for the plaintiff.
The CUM' BARON said he remembered well that the
points reserved were of great importance—of such
importance that he directed that they should be argued
before this Court, and that the judgment of the Court
should be considered as his ruling at Nisi Prius, so
that it should be open to either side to take the case
to a court of error by a bill of exceptions. The rule
should, therefore, be granted.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL would merely state so
much of the facts of the case as would enable the
other members of the court to see the grounds of his
motion. The action was brought against the defen-
dants as carriers to recover the value of a box of
golddust, which was delivered to the defendants for
conveyance to the Bank of England on account of
the plaintiff. It appeared that 11 boxes of golddust
were delivered at Chagres by the agent of the plaintiff
to the agent of the defendants, and the practice was for
the defendants to take charge of goods of this descrip-
tion at Panama, on the western coast of the Isthmus,
they undertaking the conveyance the whole distance
from Panama to the Bank of England, and taking on
themselves the whole risk of the carriage by land and
sea, with the exception only of loss by " the Queen's
enemies, pirates, robbers, fire, accidents from machi-
nery, boilers, and steam, dangers of the seas, roads,
and rivers, of whatever nature or kind soever." The
pleas of the defendants alleged that they were pre-
vented from delivering the gold by the act of robbers,
and also by the dangers of the roads. The mode in
which the loss arose was this :-11 boxes of golddust,
belonging to the plaintiff, formed part of a cargo of
280 boxes of golddust put on board at Cbagres. The
whole cargo was safely landed at Southampton. The
course of dealing between the railway company and
the mail-packet company was this—the railway com-
pany furnished the defendants with trucks for the
purpose of conveying the gold to London, and the
latter packed the waggons and sent them to London
under the custody and care of their own servants.
These 11 boxes formed part of a load of 46 boxes of
gold for conveyance to London. On the arrival of
the train at London it was discovered that three boxes
were missing, one of which belonged to the plaintiff,
and was the subject of the action. The two others
belonged to other persons. There was no doubt
that the three boxes were abstracted by theft,
It appeared that on the night when the loss occurred
the train stopped ten minutes at the Winchester sta-
tion, and shortly after it had left a man was seen
coming from the station with two bags evidently con-
taining something heavy—in all probability the stolen
boxes, as they were about the size of ladies' small
workboxes, and were, of course, very heavy, and on
the next day a boy going along a garden near the
station found a box hidden under a bush, which
turned out to be a box of golddust, and a man was
soon afterwards found looking about the bushes appa-
rently in search of something hidden. He was
arrested, and afterwards convicted of receiving. He
had been probably sent there by the thief for the pur-
pose of finding the box which he had hidden. It also
turned out that the waggons in which they then sent
those boxes were waggons in which a man might
easily hide himself, and into or out of which he might
easily climb, and that the servants of the company,
instead of riding in those waggons, rode in first-class
carriages, and on this occasion amused themselves on
the platform while the train waited at the station. On
these facts it was obvious that the boxes were stolen
at that station, and the jury found that the defendants
had not exhibited due care and caution, and were
guilty of negligence. There were three questions for
the Court. First, whether this came within the ex-
ception by robbery,—
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—You say stealing by secrecy
is not robbery ? They must make out that they were
overwhelmed by force. _ _

The CHIEF BARON—Oa that you are clearly enti
tied to a rule.

The ATTORNEY GENERAL—The second questio❑ is,
whether it came within the exception of " dangers of
the roads."

Mr. thron ALDERSON—This is not a danger of the
roads. The very collocation of the words, " dangers
of the seas, roads, and rivers," shows that the class of
dangers meant were of the same kind. If the road along
which these boxes had been brought ran by the side
of a precipice, and the box fell down the precipice
by an accident caused by the state of the road and
was destroyed, that would be a danger of the roads.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—The third question is,
whether, supposing the Court should be against me
on tho two preceding questions, the exceptions will
protect the carriers against a loss which arose not ex-
clusively from the excepted contingency, but partly
also from their own negligence.—Rule granted.

ADMIRALTY COURT, Jan. 14.
(13 fore Dr. LUSIIINGTON.)
TIIE EUEOPA,—DAMAGE.

It will be in the recollection of our readers that in
1849 the Europa steamer came into collision with
the barque Charles Bartlett, in consequence cf
which the latter vessel sank, and a large number of
lives were lost. Proceedings were instituted against
the Europa in this court, and at the hearing she
was condemned in the damage. Against that de-
cision 'an appeal was prosecuted to the Judicial
Committee, who affirmed the judgment of the Court
below.

The QUEEN'S ADVOCITE now applied to the Court
on behalf of the owners of part of the cargo on
board the Charles Bartlett, and also on behalf of
the representatives of three of the persons who lost
their lives, and prayed the Court to pronounce for
claims formerly made by them, but which it was
arranged should stand over until the decision of
the Judicial Committee on the original question was
given.
The COURT granted the prayer.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Jan. 14.
(Before Mr. Commissioner HoLROvD.)
IN RE EDWARD JONES.
The bankrupt was a woollen-draper, of No. 157,
Strand. This was the certificate meeting.
Mr. Linklater appeared for the assignees; Mr.
Lawrence for the bankrupt.
The bankrupt's account commenced November 1,
1849, with a capital of 2,3271,, and closed with debts,
2,6161.; liabilities, 7,0171. The assets are, good
debts, 1,961/. ; doubtful, 676/.; bad, 843/.; bills
receivable, bad, 1,6461; other property, about 160/.
Mr. LINKLATER, for the assignees, said that neither
they nor any creditor had a single objection to make.
One of the assignees was a creditor for 1,000/.
Mr. LAWRANCE urged that the bankrupt was en-
titled to a certificate of the first class. He had had a
loss of 3,6001. by discounting the bills of Messrs.
Williams and Rast, booksellers.
His HONOUR said that the bankrupt had not kept
his cash-book properly, and there would have been no
further reason for complaint if he had made it pub-
lickly known that he was a bill discounter as well as
a tailor. By not doing so, bills to the amount of
7,0171. were proveable against the estate, which ought
to be divisible among the trade creditors. The assignee
might not, perhaps, complain, because he had adopted
the same course as the bankrupt. On the above
ground the certificate (second class) would be sus-
pended for three months.
Protection was granted.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE
MANSION-HOUSE.
Henry Cromwell, who stated himself to be a com-
mercial traveller and commission agent, was brought
before Alderman Wilson under the following cir-
cumstances.

Mr James Bowen, collector to Mr. Charles H.
Bowen, of No. 101, Fenchurch-street, wine merchant,
said—About the 18th of November tbe prisoner called
at our offices, got four samples of wine, and ordered
some other goods to be sent to a captain living in the
neighbourhood of the Caledonian-road, Islington.
Upon inquiring after the captain we found that we
should act wisely in not leaving the goods, and we
acted upon the advice we received in the vicinity.
We then sent to inquire after the prisoner, but found
that the address he had given was that of a solicitor,
who complained that a great deal of trouble and an-
noyance was occasioned by calls from parties inquir-
ing after the prisoner, and that the fellow was not
known there at all. The prisoner had promised to
having
been the next morning, but he never came, and
been given to understand that many tradespeople
were likely to be victimised by him, I gave him into
custody when I met him this morning in the street,
being convinced that he was a swindler.
Alderman WiLsoil—What did he say when he
asked you to supply him with the samples ? Witness
—He said he was going to the captain of whom he
spoke, and to others whom he thought the wine might
suit, and that he would call again the next day and
give the orders, or pay for the samples.
The prisoner—The captain is a gentleman of first-
rate respectability, and is the owner of twelve or
fourteen houses. I told this person, not that I wanted
tbe wine for the captain but for some public-houses ;
and I accordingly called at the houses and spent my
money in them in trying to sell the wines, but could
not; and when he saw me in the street he collared me '
as if I had robbed him.

Alderman WILSON—Why did you not go to him
next day with the samples P Prisoner (hesitating)—
Why, I was not well—oh, it was because I had not
succeeded in selling.

Alderman WILS7M—Do you mean that ono tasted
and another tasted until the samples were all gone,
and you did not think you were bound to go back ?
Prisoner—Just the case. I could not bring the
samples back, of course. .

Alderman WILSON—Who is Mr. Henry Wilson ?
Prisoner—Who is he ? Why he is a large publican.
Alderman WILSON—Where does he live ? Prisoner
—Well, I don't exactly know the name of the street.
I know it'a on the left-band side.—(Great laughter.)
Witness—He told us he never did business except
upon boas' fide orders, and that he could sell more
wine than any other man in London, between the day
of his visit and Christmas.
Prisoner—And so I could, but this will interfere
with it.
Alderman WILSON—That certainly is very proba-
ble, if you ever had any power of the kind. I shall
not let you go' till I know something more about you.
Can you name any gentleman who can prove you
are as respectable as you say you are ?
The prisoner said there was a gentleman whose
offices were in Moorgate•street, and who could
satisfy the Alderman as to his integrity and respon-
sibility.
The policeman into whose custody the prisoner
had been given went to the address of the party re-
ferred to, and upon his return said to the Alderman—
" I saw the gentleman, and he states that be knew
the prisoner about ten years ago, but had missed him
since until about a month ago, when the prisoner
called upon him, complained of great distress, and
got from him 3/. ls., which had never been re-
turned."
Alderman WlLsoN—That is rather an unfavour-
able character from your referee.
Prisoner—That's all because I have not :paid him
the 21. 12s.—(Laughter.)
Alderman WlLsos—Did you ever live in Clerken-
well ? Prisoner—Clerkenwell ! I think I did.
Alderman WILSON—In what street ? Prisoner—
That I don't remember.
Alderman WILSON—If you are at a loss I'll tell
you. In Myddleton-street. Prisoner—Well, I dare
say it was.
Alderman WiesoN—l can tell you the number too.
It was No. 6. Prisoner—No. 6 ! Well, I don't re-
collect.
Alderman WrLsoN—l can assure you it is true. I
have it down in the "Trade Society's Protection List"
before me. Prisoner—l do assure you that I was
never before a magistrate in my life before this day.
The owner of the house No. 21, Barnsbury• road,
which the prisoner stated was his former address, at-
tended the justice-room, and said he had never seen
the man before that moment, and never had had a
tenant or lodger named Henry Cromwell or Henry
Wilson.
Alderman WILSON--I shall remand the prisoner
till Friday next, and I dare say some person will
volunteer to give him a character. In the meantime I
shall accept good bail for his appearance on that day
in two housekeepers' sureties of 401. each, and his
own in 801.
Prisoner—l don't suppose I can get that. lam
willing to givo my own security for 1001.
The prisoner was then remanded till Friday.
Alderman WILSON requested that the press would
acknowledge the Lord Mayor's receipt of 5/. from
"A. D.," and 10/ 10s. from the Clothworkers' Com-
pany for the poor-box. _

Mrs. Bonnet was here recalled.

ness—He did not.
Sergeant Rafter, 346 A—This morning I te43l'
the prisoner into custody, at his house in Paddingtoe'
street. I told him that I wanted him for ember
zling money received by him for Mr. Moore, wbelit
he said, " I thought it was about that affair that
you wanted me." I then conveyed him to rhE
station-house. On the way thither he asked me l
I had a warrant, and on my telling him that I 133 a
not, he said he thought it was not a case for me to 10.
terfcre in.
Mr. Cooper here begged to observe that the pri'
sonar was still on the rolls, and for many years bile
taken out his certificate; he, however, had not Ot
one now, but he could nevertheless still practise 1"
various matters appertaining to the profession. t
Mr. BROUGHTON —He can't practise here without
a certificate.
Mr. Fell—You know, Mr. Cooper, that Mr. Loa
some time ago refused to hear Mr. Grange upon en
objection being made, when he attended here on be°
half of a prisoner whom he was engaged to defend.
Mr. Cooper, in the course of many observation°
which he made for the defence, admitted that the
money was paid to the prisoner, alleging at the 00"
time that money was owing to him for former see'
vices done by him for Mr. Bonnet, and that therefore
he (prisoner) had a right to retain any paperd°'
papers until he was paid all that was due to him. Pe
(prisoner) had never said that he had paid the mosey'
but had simply stated that " all was settled," which
might imply that he had no intention of retaining the
re
sum, but that he might have seen the officer of the
court with whom he had come to au arrangement I°i,
settling with him for payment being made in the
course of a few days. Mr. Cooper could look uP°l
the affair in no other light than that of a breach °
trust. He would not attempt to deny that the money
ought to be paid in, and speedily, and if that Were
done he thought that, under the circumstances, 130tbi0
more should be required of prisoner, who had a de.
mand for former services upon the prosecutor.
Mr. 13aouGuTox characterised the case as be'
one in which the public generally were deeply °.
terested. The prisoner had received money for 1
specific object, which object had not been carried oil!!
and he (the Magistrate) was not quite sure that Pirri.
soner had not, under the 7th and Bth George I"
c. 29, sec. 49, rendered himself amenable to trans; ,
portation for not more than fourteen nor less rhea
seven years. It was, at all events, a case which I'l
should no doubt, upon another day, feel himself boon!
to send to another court for trial. Ha would tali'
bail for the prisoner's appearance again next Mondo9,
himself in 1001. and two sureties in .501. each.
He was then locked up.
SOUTH IYARK.
Thomas Brown, a salesman iu the Borough-market,
was placed at the bar before Mr. A'Beckett charged
with violating the person of Hannah Cowan,

Mr. Harvard, one of the City inspectors of weights
and measures, said, it appeared from the report of
the great wardmote in the newspapers on Tuesday
last, that the ward inquest of Portsoken had presented
a complaint that the weights and scales of butchers
in that ward were scandalously deficient, and that he
had applied upon the subject to the foreman of the in-
quest, by whom he had been informed that only one
butcher and one dealer in marine stores in the ward
had been culpable in that respect.
Alderman WILSON was glad to hear that the charge
was not a general one.
MAR YLEBONE.
Mr. Broughton was occupied for a considerable
time in the investigation of a charge of embezzle-
ment preferred against a person who for some years
past has attended as an advocate at this and other
police courts. The caw, in consequence of certain
exposures which have recently been made with re-
gard to malpractices in the legal profession, excited
some interest.
The name of the accused is Richard Grange, and
his residence is N 0.62, Paddington-street.
Mr. William Cooper, solicitor, attended for the pri-
soner.
The first witness examined was Rose Adelaide
Bonnet, who said—l am the wife of Louis Bonnet,
who holds a situation as clerk at Somerset-house. I
live at 3, Queen Charlotte-buildings, New-road. I
have known the prisoner for a long while, and hehas
done business for us as a solicitor.
Mr. BitouGuToN—Did he represent himself to be
a lawyer? Witness—Yes, sir; and he was employed
in that capacity.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Now tell me the particulars re-
lating to this charge of embezzlement, for which the
prisoner is brought here. Witness—My husband
owed Mr. Moore, landlord of the Duke of York, St.
John's-wood-terrace, 51. 2s. 5d., for which he was
summoned to the county court, and an order wss
made upon him for 6/. 33. 11d., including Is. is. 6d.
the costs of the suit.
Mr. BROUGHTON—When was your husband sum-
moned ? Witness—About two months ago.
Mr. BROUGHTON—How soon after the order was it
that any conversation took place? Witness—The
order was dated the 15th of November, and it was
brought to me by one of the officers of the county

Mr. BROUGHTON—When did you speak to the pri-
soner upon the subject? Witness—ln the early
part of December, my husband being laid up at that
period, I told prisoner to do all he could to gain a
little time, and he came back and informed me Mr.
Moore would wait a fortnight. At the end of that
time my husband went to prisoner, saying that he hid
some money ready, and that if ke would call he would
give it to him. He did call, and I gave him 3/. 3s. 6d.,
telling him to pay that to Mr. Moore in part of the
debt. He assured me that he would pay it, and bring
back the order (the county-court paper, which had
been given to him), to show that he had done as di-
rected. (The order was here handed to themagis-
trate.) When he next came he said the remainder
must be paid by the Bth or 9111 of

him to call at our house. He came on the same Iday,
and my husband, who was in bed, said to him, " Have
you arranged that ? where is the paper ?" to which he
replied, "I have not the paper with me, but it's all
right, and you need not be uneasy." My husband
further remarked to him that if he would bring him
the paper and tell him what his demand was for his
trouble he should be paid, and he said, " Very well,"
and then went away.
