LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

BANKRUPTCY COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
The vacation, as it is termed, having closed yesterday,
his Honour now sat to hear some of the very numerous cases
in arrear for last examination and discharge, but in a num-
ber of cases their accounts had not been filed, no doubt
through the uncertainty when the meetings for discharge
would be held, as none had been heard during the vacation,
except those belonging to the Court of the Commission
sitting on the day, consequently there is a great arrear of
cases.
39k The first case called was

W. B. APPLEYARD.

This bankrupt was a grocer at Foots Cray. This was a
meeting for last examination.
Mr. IV. R. Buchanan was for the bankrupt.
Mr,IV. Sargood said that the accounts had not been filed,
but the cause was the illness of the bankrupt's wife.

His Honour said that the bankrupt must pay the costs.
Mr. Sargood said he was prepared to do so now.
His Honour said that an adjournment might be taken,
but it had better be fixed for a day after Mr. Commis-
sioner Fane's return, as Mr. Commissioner Holroyd
would, on his return, not take Mr. Fane's cases.
The adjournment was taken accordingly,
IN RE FEARNLEY.

This bAnkrupt was a coffee-house keeper at Camden-
town, and this was a meeting for last examination and dis-
charge.

Mr. Bazley applied for an adjournment, no accounts
having been filed.
His Honour said it must be on the same terms as the last,
the payment of costs, and the case would therefore be
adjourned sine die, with liberty to apply.
Mr. Bazley said the bankrupt was prepared to pay the
costs into court, and asked for a day to be fixed, or it would
be necessary to readvertise.
His Honour said on the costs being paid he would_fix
a day. He did not like risking costs in such cases.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

GUILDIIALL.

A rough-looking fellow, named Brown, a plasterer, was
charged with assaulting his mother.
The complainant having stated her case,
Alderman Hale, addressing the prisoner, said--I suppose
you earn good wages ?

Prisoner—Yes; I earn a good bit of money, and I
spend it.
Alderman Hale—You, I suppose, think you have a pri-
vilege to abuse your mother.
Prisoner—No, I don't, and I should like to see anybody
that did. I won't give any promise, but if I can pre-
vent it, I'll not come here again.
Alderman Hale—l don't think your sober now.
Prisoner—Oh ain't I. I can speak as a gentleman
should to a gentleman. (Laughter.) I like to spend
money, and I'm thankful I can do it. (Laughter.)
Alderman Hale.—l do not indeed think you are sober.
Prisoner—Well, you can think what you please, but you
can't always be right no more than other people.
Alderman Hale—You shall nut beat your mother with

impunity.
Prisoner—l don't want to, and I'll take care nobody else
does. Every one forgets himself now and then.
Alderman Hale—At all events I'll prevent you beating
her for some time to come. I shall send you to prison for
three months, and at the end of that term you must enter
into sureties for good behaviour for six months,
Prisoner—Oh, I'm to have three months, am I. Well,
all the harm I wish you old fellow, is that you may sit in
that chair until I come out.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING.
WEDNESDAY.

The second day's raoing has afforded no very specially in-
teresting events to chronicle. The defeat of The Ranger in
the Triennial Produce Stakes by Tornado and Turcos must
be accounted for by supposing that he had not recovered his
Leger break down. lie certainly could not answer when
called upon. The Handicap for Two-yr-olds was won by
Moulsey, a colt of Lord Bateman's, defeating the favourite,
Annington, who finished a bad fourth; the Doncaster run-
ning of the latter in the Nursery having been considered
good enough to elevate him to that post. Liston defeated
Paddy O'Rourke in the match, and the 10 sovs Sweepstakes,
for which 10 came to the post, resulted, after a keen
struggle, in a dead heat between Antoinette and the Lady
Constance filly, the favourite, Galileo, lying well up.
The Ranger managed to retrieve some of his laurels in
the St. Leger Stakes, winning after a good race with Early
Purl, though, as the latter made such a sorry figure in the
Triennial, the performance cannot count for much. Linda
lost her laurels in the Granby, Mr. Longfield's Union Jack
running her to a standstill, and winning with ease by three
or four lengths. The deciding heat for the 10 sovs Sweep-
stakes was won by Antoinette.
The weather still continues magnificent, and the course
is in excellent order.

The Extraordinary Mail-bag Robbery.

On Tuesday, at the Hull Police-court, before the stipen-
diary magistrate, Maria Cooke, the lady who is charged
with being concerned in the robbery of the South Cave
mail-•bag and a letter containing checks to the amount of
£7OO, was again brought up. Mr. F. F. Ayre appeared for
the prosecution, and Mr. F. Summers for the prisoner. The
following evidence was called :
Douglas Mackintosh, a merchant's clerk, stated that he
remembered being in W hitefriargate, Hull, on Friday morn-
ing last, about a quarter past 10 o'clock. The prisoner came
up and said to him, "Are you in a hurry ?" Ho replied
"No." She said, " Will you get a check cashed for me ?"
He said, " I don't suppose they will pay me." She said,
" Yes they will." He said, " I shall have to sign my name."
She said, "Oh no, you won't." While she was speaking
she produced an envelope with a:check in, out of a bag, and
gave it to witness. He said he would take it, and he asked
her where the bank was. She said, " The Yorkshire Bank-
ing Company, corner of Parliament-street." Witness went
to the bank with the check, which was in the envelope. It
was for £2B, and drawn byThos Jackson, of North Shields,
upon the National Provincial Bank of England at Shields.
He presented the check to the bank clerk, who refused to
cash it. He then left the bank and went back to the pri-
soner, and told her they would not cash the check, and he
handed both the envelope and check back to her. Ho then
left, and immediately afterwards pointed her out to two
bank clerks who had followed him. One of these clerks
went up to her and asked her if she had just sent a check to
the bank, She replied in the affirmative. He asked to see
the check, when she handed him what appeared to be the
same envelope and check. He asked her to step back to the
bank, and she went, witness accompanying them, In the
bank they asked where she had got the check from, and she
said a gentleman had given it to her in a railway carriage,
as she was coming from llessle the night before by the last
train, and in a second-class carriage. She was asked if there
were many people in the carriage, and she replied thatit was
full, and that the gentleman, who was sitting opposite to
her, threw it across to her. She had not seen him before.
The lady was then taken into custody by a detective who
was present in the bank at the time.
William Boyce, of Beverley, bankers' clerk in the York-
shire Banking Company at Hull, said he remembered Fri-
day last, the 25th inst., when the last witness brought a
check to the bank to be cashed, but it was not cashed, and
it was returned to Mackintosh, and the latter left the bank
followed by witness and another bank clerk. The prisoner
was pointed out to them as the person who had sent the
check to the bank. Witness asked her if she had sent a boy
to the Yorkshire Banking Company with a check on the
National Provincial Banking Company. She said " Yes,
one of Mr. Popplewell's" (the person to whom the check
was payable). Witness asked her to show him the check.
She then produced an envelope in which was a check on the
York City and County Bank at Goole. Witness told her
that this was not the check he wanted, and he asked her it
she had another. She then produced another envelope with
the check on the National Provincial Bank. Witness told
her there was some mistago about the check she had pre-
sented to the bank, and would she return there ? She said
she hoped that there was nothing wrong about it, but she
would go. When in the bank, the manager asked her the
questions deposed to by the last witness. She said when in.
the train the gentleman said to her, "There, young woman,
there's some checks for you; get some money for them it
you like." She was asked if she had not given something
for the checks. She said " No." She was asked what was
his appearance. She said he was tall but she would not
know him again. She was then given into custody.
Elizabeth Jane Taylor, wife of Mr. Taylor, of Spring-
arch, Spring-street, was next examined. She knew the pri-
soner, and she came from Ferriby station with her on Thurs-
day evening, in the last train. They rode in a third-class
carriage, and witness sat opposite prisoner. There were
eight women (including_the prisoner) and two men in the

given to the prisoner, and if there had been she must have
seen it. Witness went to the gaol on Saturday last, and
identified the prisoner from amongst several other women.
Mary Eleanor Ward said she knew the prisoner. She was
with her between 3 and 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon
last, and went with her to the Hull Railway Station. She
said she was going to Hessle, and intended to walk back at
night. Witness advised her to return by the last train, and
then left her.
John Wilson, of South Cave, clerk in the branch bank of
the Yorkshire Banking Company at that place, was next
called. On Thursday last he made up a letter containing
seven checks, addressed to the Yorkshire Banking Com-
pany at Beverley. The two checks found upon the pri-
soner when taken into custody were two of the checks he
placed in the letter. The letter was sealed and posted be-
tween a quarter and half-past 5 o'clock. He knew the pri-
soner, having seen her at Soma Cave.
Henry Michael Daly, 64, Saville-street, Hull, said he
was clerk in the General Post-office, Lcndon, and acting
postmaster of Hull. (Witness was here shown the envelope
in which the checks were placed before being posted at
South Cave.) This envelope, he said, was again posted in
Hull on Friday morning, between 9 15 and 10 15. There
was a South Cave postmark on it for the 24th inst. It did
not bear the Brough postmark, which it ought to have done
in its transit from Cave to Beverley. (This evidence was
to show that the letter containing the 7 checks was stolen
at South Cave and re-posted at Hull, for Beverley, minus
the two checks found in possession of the prisoner.)
The evidence of how the robbery was effected, and the
receipt of the 5 checks at the Beverley Yorkshire Banking
Company, was postponed until next Tuesday.
Bail was applied for, but refused, the magistrate remark-
ing that there was too much mystery about the case.
