LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)

RE BOUCICAITLT.

This was an adjourned meeting for last examination, and
it was objected that the opposition was not bona fide by Mr.
Patrick, who claimed t, be a creditor for £2,133, but in
reality on the part of Mr. Webster; and Mr. Linklater, on
the part of the assignees, protested against those proceed-
ings being made the vehicle of discussing private matters.
Mr. Lawrence said that it was quite a matter of indiffer-
ence to his client, who opposed, as he was then prepared
to pass on the accounts he had rendered, and which were
not disputed by the assignees.
Mr. C, E. Lewis called Patrick, the opposing creditor,
who most distinctly denied that he had been influenced by
Mr. Webster in the course ho had taken in the proceed-
ings, but in cross-examination by Mr. Linklater he said
that shortly before the bankrup cy he had issued execution
against the goads, and the bankruptcy was in consequence
of that execution. Previously to that he had been in
treaty for an arrangement by which he and other
creditors were to be paid 20s. in the pound. It was part of
the arrangement that the mortgage creditors should forego
their claims until the other creditors had been paid in full,
but he ultimately did not ascent, and ho did not believe
that, had the arrangement been carried out, all the credi-
tors would have been paid in full.

Mr. Linklater said the assignees were most unfairly ac-
cused of rowing in the same boat with the bankrupt. They
were acting wholly independent of Mr. Boucicault—all
they were anxious for was to make the best of the
estate for the benefit of the creditors.
A discussion then arose as to the production of some
accounts bet weep the bankrupt and Mr. Webster, the
former alleging that the latter was indebted to him to the
extent of £1,200.

Mr. Linklater strongly protested against the assignees
being called upon to produce accounts at the demand of an
individual creditor, and it was A B C law in the Bank-
ruptcy Law, that one creditor should not be allowed
to interfere in order to cut down or diminish the
estate, which was th© object of the opposing creditor to
show that the alleged debt due from Mr. 'Webster was not
due, but the assignees would ask the Court to give them
power to try in another Court.
Mr. Lewis contended that he was entitled to call for the
account, or it would bi impossible to test the accuracy of
the balance sheet.

Mr. Lawrance, for the bankrupt, said that the collateral
question as to whether the debt was due or not ought not
to interfere with the bankrupt passing on his accounts.
The assignees were in an independent p3sition, and best
able to form a judgment on that point. He could not see
what earthly right a creditor had to raise a public discus-
sion on matters which could not be determined here.
His Honour, however, ordered that the document should
be put in, which was done, but the bankrupt said he had
never seen it, and he still maintained that his original state-
ment was correct.

The examination of the bankrupt was continued, and his
Honour, in very complimentary language, expressed his
strong opinion that the bankrupt was fully entitled to his
discharge.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—This Day,

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Keating.)
Wm. Balland, ironmonger, surrendered upon an indict,•
ment, charging him with secreting property belonging to
his creditors, within 60 days of his bankruptcy.
The prisoner, it appeared, had resided at Dockhead, Ber-
mondsey, where he had for upwards of 20 years carried on
the business of an ironmonger. Some time in June last a
Mr. Udall, of Birmingham, from whom the prisoner had
from time to lime purchased goods, called upon him in re-
ference to an account of about £6OO which the prisoner then
owed him, and for which he had given bills. At that time
it was observed that the prisoner had a large stock in his
premises, and in consequence a much larger amount Of
goods were supplied to him, which it .vas found afterwards
he had secretly removed to a shop in the York-road for the
purpose of another business, and after this prisoner had by
those means obtained the goods and disposed of them, he
sought the relief of the Court of Bankruptcy, where the
Commissioner, after examination of the manner in which
the goods had been removed, directed the present prosecu-
tion.

At the conclusion of the evidence the learned Judge left
it for the jury to say whether at the time of the removal of
the goons there was an intention to defraud.

The jury retired to consider their verdict, and after about
an hour's consideration returned a verdict of not guilty.
In the case of Eliza Robins, charged with administering
poison to two of her children in tarts, the poison being
white precipitate, the grand jury ignorsd the bill.

THE CHARGE OF ENLISTING SOLDIERS ZOR POLAND.
In the case of Mr. Alfred Styles, committed for trial by
Mr. Hall, at Bow-street, on a charge of having unlawfully
attempted to enlist soldiers in this country to aid the Folish
insurgents, the bill will not be preferred before the
grand jury at the present session, the defendant being out
on bail. It will not be preferred until the September
session,

THIRD COURT.
(Before the Common Sergeant.)
George Upson, charged with burglary in the dwelling-
house of Mr. Goldsworthy in Portland-place, and stealing
a quantity of jewellery, the property of two visitors, was
tried and convicted of stealing, but acquitted of the bur-
glary.—Sentenced to three years' penal servitude.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SOLDIER 1111IFIAN.—DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT.
Charles Humphreys, a private of the Ist battalion of the
Coldstream Guards, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
most disgraceful conduct to a married woman named Mary
Ann Alsop, living at 32, Queen-street, Edgware-road, and
the prisoner was further charged with assaulting Joseph
Alsop, the husband of Mrs Alsop.
Mrs. Alsop said that about 12 the previous night she
was standing at the coroner of North Audley-street talk..
ing to her husband, and his sister, and two friends, having
been out to spend the evening with them, when the pri
Boner passed by and put his arms round her neck, and then
thrust one of his hands up her clothes. Her husband told
the prisoner not to do it again, when the prisoner up with
his fist and knocked him down.

BRIT] S

272 ; i

Joseph Alsop, the husband, said that on telling the pri-
soner not to repeat his conduct the prisoner gave him
violent blow on the nose, knocking him down and smother-
inga him with blood, and rendering him insensible.
Maria Alsop, the sister of the last witness, gave carro
boratory evidence, and Mr. Charles Brooks, of No. ;
North-row, Grosvenor-square, said that he saw the soldier'
strike the husband, and seeing that it was a most cowardly
and unmanly assault he went for a constable.
Powell, 214 D, said the prisoner was quite sober.
Prisoner said that he was called over by some of the
party, and then told to " take his hook " (explained to mean
to leave).
Mr. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner seemed to think that ho
could do as he liked with the female, and when be found
that he could not he knocked the husband down. It was a
most shameful attack on the woman.
The prisoner was then committed for 14 days for the
assault on the female, and ordered to pay 40s. or a month
for the assault on her husband, but subsequently Mr.
Tyrwhitt altered the term of imprisonment for the assault
on the husband to 14 days.
We havebeen requested to state that the address of Mrs.
Kenny, whose case appeared in the papers during the last
few days, is 39A, Curzon-street, and not 39.

TI-IE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 19, 1863%

THE IRISH "NATIONALISTS."

(From the Dublin Express.)
A monster meeting of Irish "Nationalists" was
convened on Saturday, on the heights of Slievena-
I mon Mountain in the county of Tipperary, a loca-
lity rendered historical during the Repeal agitation
L of 1848. On the highest point of the mountain is
a rock which, ever since that period, has been known
by the name of " Meagher's Rock," and this, it was
determined, should be the rallying point. The un-
favourable character of the weather prevented large
numbers who would otherwise have attended ; but
about 700 were present, principally of the labouring
class. On the topmost pinnacle of the mountain
was a flag of red, white, and green, on which an
Irish harp without the crown was depicted.
At about four o'clock Charles J. Eackham, Esq.,
of Mullinahone, was called on to preside.
The CHAIRMAN rose amid loud applause. He said
that the object of the meeting was, in the first place,
to renew their vows never to cease until they bad
achieved the independence of Ireland. (Great
cheers.) In the mean time, the nationalists of Tip-
perary were ready to give aid to any non-parlia-
mentary movement which was likely to do good to
the poor, oppressed, and down-trodden tenants-at-
will of Ireland. (Hear, hear.) He did not believe
that the cause of Irish nationality could be served
much by speech-making. If Irishmen would serve
their country, they must earn for themselves a very
different character. They must copy the examples
set by other oppressed people, and begin in earnest
to woo the goddess Freedom in the only way in
which she ever would be won.
A VoicE—Hurrah for the Poles, as an example !
(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN continued—He would be told
that this was dangerous, but the goal could never be
won without danger, sacrifice, and suffering. He
solemnly declared and believed the dungeon and the
scaffold were mercies compared with the cup of gall
and wormwood which the Irish patriot was forced
to drain, and the bitterest drops in which were
poured by hands which his heart told him ought to
be the first stretched out to aid his efforts and to
bless them. Let us learn to look our situation
steadily in the face. The Irish racy is strong in
America, in the Colonies of England, and in the
heart of England itself. Let us be in earnest, and
we shall be as strong at home. The chairman then
referred to the names of the men of 1848—to
Michael Doheny—may his memory be ever
green among us ! for a braver Irishman Tip-
perary never nursed, and a nobler heart than his
never crumbled into dust—(cheers)—to the gifted
young tribune, Thomas F. Meagher, and to the
descendant of the ancient Feenian chiefs, the gallant
O'Mahony ; and he hoped that ere long the modern
Feenians would assemble in their might with the
tried and trusted O'Mahony at their head. (Cneers.)
Mr. GILL, of the Tipperary Advocate, proposed
the following resolution—" Resolved, That Parlia-
mentary agitation in this country be discouraged
and discountenanced, inasmuch as all hopes of re-
dressing the wrongs of Ireland and saving her
from utter ruin through the agency of the London
Parliament are now and for evermore senseless
and illusory. By all true Irishmen these Wrongs
are felt more keenly than words can describe,
though means of redressing them for the pre.
sent we have not in our hands; but we watch
and wait for their coming with eager hope, resolved,
as God may aid us, to grasp them when within our
reach, and to use them as Ihe means of our salva-
tion." Did they demand anything unreasonable ?
No. They merely demanded what was given to
every English colony—self-government, self-legis-
lation. Yet they were denied it—(hear)—and lately
Lord Palmerston said in his place in the House of
Commons, that he would not interfere between
Irishmen, but would let them fight their battles out.
between landlord and tenant- (Hear.) No;
Eng-
land cared nothing for irelami, and the Britis
Minister did not care if 20 lanalords were shot a
day, it 50 peasants were hanged for every one of
them.

A VOlCE—There would want to be more of them
shot. (Hear, hear.)
Another VOICE—So there will. (Cheers, and cries
of " Down with the landlords.")
Mr. GILL—And the proof that they do not want
to prevent them is, that they never would have
supplied the police with swords, belts, and long
rifles if they wanted them to catch thieves. No ;
they want the police for the purpose of shooting
down the remnant of the Irish population. (Hear,
and yells.) That is what the police wear the rifles
and swords for, and not to detect the murderer and
the assassin. The speaker then referred to the
Irish aristocracy, whom he characterised as a set of
bloodthirsty hounds, the meanest creatures in the
form of bipeds on the face of creation, having no idea
of freedom or fatherland. But, thank God, there
was hope for Ireland still. He saw a thousand honest
hearts at that meeting, with the representatives of
50,000 more. He called upon them to counsel
their comrades and brothers to stay at home, and
not be flying to America.
A VOICE : They will come back. (Hear.)
Mr. GILL : They will come back with a vengeance.
He concluded amid loud applause.
The resolution was seconded by Mr. RODERICK
KICKHAM.
Mr. FINNERTY, a young Nationalist, who stated
he had come from the north riding of Tipperary,
next addressed the meeting in a vehement speech,
and called on Irishmen to imitate the example of
Poland. Mr. Gill had denounced the Irish aristo-
crats. They did not want such men. They wanted
men whose hands were hardened by manly labour,
whose hearts were stout and brave, and whose hands
would not be blistered by the pike-handle.
(Cheers.) He was not there to counsel the Irish
people to rush into a senseless resolution, or follow a
wild goose chase, but Irishmen should remember
that no nation ever earned independence without
spilling more or less blood. (Great cheering.) It
after years of petitioning the British Parliament—
if after years of sending repres.mtatices and misre-
presentatives to Parliament, they had won nothing,
how was it to be won 11

A VOICE—By the pike.
Mr. kINNEHTY—We are unarmed, but scythes
can be turned to some use if they provoke us too
far. (Hear.) The speaker concluded by calling on
nationalists to rally round the green flag till they
planted it for ever above the red on the highest
parapets of Dublin. .

Tt:e resolution, having bcen put by the chairman,
was carried by acclamation.

Desperate Encounter with a Burglar.

Early on Monday morning Mr. J. Brass, shoe-
maker, of the London-road, Worcester, was aroused
by a noise in the lower part of his house; and hay
ing a suspicion that some one had broken into his
premises, he got up and dressed himself, and, armed
with a stick having a knot at its end, left his bed-
room to search the house. He had Hot gone far,
however, before he saw a man in-the lower floor,
with a lighted candle in his hand. Theuoise made
by Mr. Brass had attracted the thief's attention, and
seeing that he was observed, he knocked out the light
and made for the window to effect his escape. Mr.
Brass wae, however, too quick for him; and as the
man was getting out of the window dealt him a heavy
blow on the back with the weapon with which
he had armed himself. This brought the vagabond
to the ground, and then Mr. Brass seized him. A
frightful struggle ensued, the burglar grasping Mr.
Brass by the throat and endeavouring to overcome
Nevertheiess, by dint of courageous and
steady perseverance Mr. Brass succeeded in keeping
the upper fiend, and in self defence gave the fellow
a tremendous thrashing, in spite of his calls for his
Pal" to come to his assistance. The encounter
continued until the arrival of Police-sergeant
Holmes and a city constable, into whose custody
Mr. Brass delivered his antagonist, and went with
them to the station-house. Another struggle was,
however, yet in store for him, for as they passed
through the London-road turnpike the man darted
in front of his custodians and was making off. Again
Mr. Brass pursued him, and in a few strides Was
sufficiently near to arrest his progress by another
blow, and he was ultimately secured and handed
over to Superintendent Philips, the burglary
having been committed outside the city boundary.
For some time the fellow refused to give his name,
but ultimately said ha was John Brown, of Thomas-
street, Worcester. On Monday he was brought
before Mr. H. B. Tymbs, at the office of the county
magistrates' clerk. He presented a very sorry
figure, one eye being entirely closed, and his face
exhibiting signs of the effectiveness of Mr. Brass's
blows. The case was merely opened, and prisoner
remanded till Friday. He had effected an entrance
to the premises by removing a pane of glass from
the kitchen window, and cutting through the shut-
s with a sharp chisel. Having succeeded thus
far he got in, and in mounting a table which stood
under the window, he knocked something off
which, falling to the ground, broke a plate, and oc-
casioned the noise that awoke Mr. Brass. He was
also prepared with a sharp knife.

INLAND REVENtTi:

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The annual report of the Inland Revenue Com-
missioners is always of interest, giving as it does a
view of the chief taxation of the country, for this
Board collect forty millions a year. In the year
ending with March, 1803, the Excise duties pro-
duced a net sum of £17,317,396, a decrease of
£957,904 as compared with the previous year. The
quantity of home•made spirits charged with duty
declined 184,958 gallons, but the duty still reached
the large sum of £9,399,707. The consumption of
spirits in Ireland in 1838 was no less than 12,000,000
gallons, producing, by a 2s. 4-1. duty, a revenue of
£1,434,000; in 1862 the consumption was little
more than a third of that quantity, but the duty
tieing 10s. the revenue reached £2,000,000. The
consumption of spirits is at present temporarily de-
pressed by the distress in important districts of the
country; but no doubt wine, beer, and tea are all
to a certain extent displacing spirits. Comparing
the years 1853 and 1862, it will be found that the
consumption of British spirits fell from 25,000,000
gallons to 19,760,000, bat the consumption of wine
rose from 7,000,000 gallons to 9,800,000, of beer
from 17,700,000 barrels to 19,400,000, and of tea
from 58,800,0001 b. to 78,800,0001 b. The taxa-
tion on these articles differs greatly ; on a
pint of beer it is a farthing, on a quarter of an
ounce of tea less than a farthing, but on a
glass of gin it is more than five farthings. The dise
tillers find abroad some compensation for a lessened
demand at home. There was a large increase in
the export of British spirits last year to the West
Coast of Africa, to Italy, and to Turkey; with this
last country it is the creation of a new trade, and is
owing to the war in America having stopped the
supplies from that country. Passing next to the
item of malt, we find a decrease of £476,394 in the
produce of the duty; but it was not to be expected
that the quantity made last year would equal the
extraordinary amount of 1861; the barley of 1862
was in many districts of inferior quality for malt-
ing purposes. The hop duty, like the paper duty,
is no more, but the alteration in brewers' licences
has brought an addition of £223,870 to the revenue.
The licence duty produced the large sum of
£1,910,150. Auctioneers paid £47,540; wine re-
tailers, £11,226 ; and the 5,154 licences taken for
refreshment houses brought £4,475. Proceeding
now to the second great branch of inland re-
venue—s- namely, stamps, the net produce of
which rose £386.206, and amounted to £8,966,803,
we find the probate duty advancing to £1,325,359,
the legacy and succession tax to £2,374,436, and
duty on fire insurance to £1,580,637. The fees paid
the Divorce Court (the payment being by stamps)
amounted to only £2,420. The duty on playing-
cards has been reduced from ls. to 3d. a pack, in
the hope of suppressing the enormous evasion of the
tax, The third and last branch of the inland re-
venue—land, assessed, and income taxes--pro-
duced last year £13,626,549. The net receipt of
income-tax on schedule D fell from £3,263,926 in
the preceding year to £3.233,766, but the whole
tax showed an increase of £11,381. In 1861 there
was a fresh assessment under schedule A and B,
the previous assessment having been continued
generally since 1857. The assessment of land was
increased £1,982,000 (comparing 1861 with 1860),
of houses £3,976,000, of railways £851,000, and
under schedule B the assessment was increased
£1,717,000 in England alone. The assessed profits
of trade and professions in the United Kingdom
were £94,739,000 in 1860, and £99,372,000 in 1861;
the increase in Westminister was from £3,619,000 to
£4,081,000, arising, in a great measure, from more
correct charges on the west-end tradesmen and on
persons making enormous profits by public enter-
tainments and exhibitions. In the city of London
the assessments rose only slightly, from £15,405,000
to £15,578,000—an amount considered strangely
below its proper rank as a contributor to the in-
come tax. A comparison in regard to the whole tax
may be advantageously made by taking 1842 and
1852, in which years the area of taxation was limited
to incomes of £l5O and upwards, and 1853 and
1861, when the area of taxation extended to incomes
of £lOO a year, Between 1842 and 1852 the aver-
age annual increase in value was only 1.13 per
cent. ; between 1853 and 1861 it was 2.80 per
cent. Deducting from the assessment in 1861 the
amount charged in respect of incomes under 1.:11,0 a
year, so as to get a fair comparison with 1842, the
increase in the assessment of 1861 was 31 per cent.
over 1842. On lands the increase in the assessment
was 10.85 per cent; houses, 50.4 per cent; mines,
109.32 per cent ; on iron works, 93.02 per cent ; on
railways 439.28 per cent. The profits of trades and
professions charged in 1852 were only 1.70 per cent.
higher than those of 1842, the average annual in-
crease being but 0.17 per cent; but the profits of
1861 exceeded those of 1853 by 19.33 per cent, the
annual rate of increase in this last period being
2.42 per cent.

A moderate supply of new Eng►ish wheat was on sale
here, to-day, in good and fine condition. Both for red and
white qualities there was a fair demand, at Monday's de-
cline in the quotations of 3s. to 4s. per quarter.

There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. The amount of business transacted was very
moderate, yet no further chango took place in prices.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late rates.

The show of new home-grown barley was small, and
with old and foreign parcels, the market was scantily sup-
plied. The trade, however, ruled inactive, at, Monday's
currency.

Malt changed hands to a limited extent, at late quo-
tations.

A fair average supply of oats was on sale, and the trade
ruled heavy, at barely stationary prices.
No change took place in the value of beans and peas ; but
the demand for them was in a sluggish state.
The top price of town-made flour was 43s per 2801bs.
Country marks and American barrels sold heavily, on
rather easier terms.
