LAW INTELLIGENCE.--This Day.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
(Sittings in :Banco, before the Lord Chief Baron, and
Barons Bramwell, Channell, and Pigot.)
BOUILLON T. VALENTIN.

Mr. Sergeant Simon resumed his argument this morning
against the rule for a new trial.

The Chief Baron suggested that as there was other
litigation proceeding in this case, some arrangement should
be entered into in reference to the present motion.
It was arranged that the further arguments in this casa
should be postponed for a week.

COURT OF DIVORCE.
(Before Sir J. P. Wilde.)
'WILLEY V. WILLEY.

This was a suit instituted by Sarah Willey, for a dis-
solution of marriage on the ground of her husband's
adultery and cruelty, and the respondent traversed the
allegations, and further pleaded condonation in regard to
the cruelty.

Dr. Swabey appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant
O'Brien and another learned gentleman for the respondent.
Sir J. P. Wilde said that this was a very bad case, and
pronounced a decree nyi, with costs.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner ilolroyd.)
IN RE LEWLNE AND MORRIS-HEAVY FAILURE-REMARK-

ABLE CASE.

__—
These bankrupts were described as of Love-lane, East-
cheap, merchants, and, to-day was appointed for the last
examination and order of discharge. The debts are
£260,000, and the deficiency as large as £lOO,OOO.
Mr. Reed, for the assignees, said this was a remarkable
case, inasmuch as the debts were all contracted in two years
and a half, and a report of the assignee showed that the bank-
rupts commenced capital in 1862 with £lO2 cash, and a
sum due from a debtor in America of £BO9, and this, with
other matters, raised their total capital to £1,002. The
deficiency account showed a loss, through liabilities, of
nearly £90,000. The assignee concluded by calling the at-
tention of the Commissioner to the fact of the bankrupts
speculating upon such a small capital, and that there were
practically no assets for the unsecured creditors.
His Honour inquired what had beon the result of the in-
vestigation into the consignment accounts.
Mr. Reed—Nothing but loss.
Mr. Linklater—lt may be taken that all the consign-
ments show a loss.

Lyon Lewin°, one of the bankrupts, was then examined,
and he said—l was formerly a crinoline manufacturer in
New York. I failed in Canada for £2,000 to £3,000, and
then went to New York and joined a Mr. Jacobs. I had
a capital of £l,lOO when I began business here. I lent
my brother £BOO before I left America, and he sent me
goods to sell. Hy brother had been in partnership with
me in Canada, and we failed together. I made subse-
quently $4,000 in the crinoline business. I have been con-
signing goods to the amount of £84,000 since I have been in
business here. I once sent him an invoice. He sent me
an account of the sales by letters, wherein he informed me
that there was a loss on some of the goods, and a large pro-
fit on the rest. Those letters had all been given up. I
was engaged in bill transactions with Mr. Salomon, who
has made an assignment.

Mr. Reed—How do you explain launching out into these
extraordinary transactions with a capital of only £lO3 ?
Bankrupt—lt was £l,lOO, and I dealt very largely, but
the transactions were not enormous, as the figures only
reach £250,000. Mr. Morris, of Montreal, to whom we
consigned goods, is a brother of my partner. He had four
businesses, and sent home account sales. About five or
six weeks before we stopped I sent my partner out
to Nassau, some goods having been sent out previously.
My partner was also going to Bombay, where I had sen
goods upon which I obtained advances from the Agra Bank
about two months before we failed. Mr. Harris, to whom
I consigned goods, has failed. Messrs. Hoffman and Co.
were merchants of Liverpool, and I consigned goods to
them. They were running the blockade to Bermuda, and
I let them have £lO,OOO worth of goods, upon which they
let me have half. I claim the balance from them, but they
claim a sum from me. I did not know they were engaged
in running the blockade. I lost £3,600 in the Stock Ex-
change about four months before I failed. I lost all this
money in one transaction. I bought shares in the Hamper
Bank when they were at 10 premium. I did make other
speculations in Bank shares, and lost all. I dealt in
accommodation bills for the convenience of others.
_ _

Mr. Reed then generally examined the bankrupt, being
followed by Mr. Linklater, after which the Commissioner
reserved his judgment.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—This Day.

Cvz 4CROFOra.

tity of brass fittings, taps, hinges, and other articles the
property of Mr. Clemence, builder, of Villiers-street, Strand ;
and John Armstrong, a marine store-dealer, was indicted
for receiving the same, well knowing it to have been
stolen.

Tho elder prisoner, it appeared, rented a vault under the
Ado]phi-arches, and ono particular day last week ho
was engaged sorting over a quantity of miscellaneous
articles, amongst which were some pieces of rope which
attracted the attention of the police. They saw some-
thing going on which they looked upon as suspicious
and they afterwards went to the prisoner's shop, which
was close to Mr. Clemence's, and there found a book with
the name of the younger prisoner entered, as the dis-
poser of a very largo quantity of brass. in another part of
the shop a vast collection of brass taps, hinges, locks, gas-
fittings, rope, pewter, and other articles in such a con-
dition with respect to use that they at once instituted
inquiries respecting the seller, and found that he was
a boy in the service of Mr. Clemence, and in moving
further in the matter it was discovered that a large quan-
tity of metal articles had been stolen from his premises.
The policeman then took possession of the shop, and on
searching it found a large quantity of pewter and a num-
ber of broken publicans' measures, some of which had the
engraving plainly upon them, which proved them to
belong to Mr. Corby, of the Ship and Shovel public-
house, in Craven-court, near the Charing-cross Railway
Station. Mr. Corbey said ho had never sold the measures
as old metal, and that they must have been stolen by some
person and sold to the prisoner. The lad Gordon was
then taken into custody, and he at once admitted that he
had taken a quantity of brass articles from the stock of Mr.
Clemence, and that he had disposed of it as old metal at
the shop of the prisoner Armstrong. He further said that
he took the property in order to provide himself
with the means of visiting various places of amusement.
There were registered in the prisoner's book about thirty
transactions with Gordon, and Mr. Clemence said the price
given by the prisoner was much below the market value of
the articles, which were in some instances worth three
times as much as was given for them. The elder prisoner
said his transactions with the lad wore all open and
straightforward. He used to say he had been sent by his
master to dispose of the metal, which was only lumber,
and not of the slightest use.
The lad Gordon, who pleaded guilty, was during the
trial removed from the dock and placed in the witness-box
to give evidence, but he merely repeated the statement he
had made in the first instance.
The prisoner Armstrong received a good character for
honesty from a number of witnesses.

The jury returned a verdict of not guilty of receiving
the property knowing it to be stolen, but guilty of great
neglect, the foreman of the jury remarking that they had
had a doubt in their minds, and they had given the pri-
soner the benefit of it. The prisoner Gordon they recom-
mended to mercy on account of his youth.
The prisoner, Armstrong, was again indicted for receiv-
ing some pewter pots, the property of Mr. Corby, well
knowing them to have been stolen. The pots were found
by the police whilst searching the prisoner's house.
Mr. Corby identified the pots as being his property.
The jury found him guilty.

Mr. Metcalf, on behalf of the prisoner, asked that the
fact that no witness had proved that prisoner was the per-
son who actually bought the article, might be reserved.
The Assistant-Judge did not think there was anything
to call for any departure from the usual course. His lord-
ship then asked whether the house kept by the prisoner
was known to the police ?
The constables said they had never had occasion to visit
the place before, although they had some suspicions
about it.

The Assistant-Judge sentenced Gordon to six months'
imprisonment. Sentence was deferred upon Armstrong.

Destructive Fire.---This Day.

This morning a destructive fire broke out be-
tween the hours of five and six o'clock at the resi-
dence of Mr. Harris, Albert-street, St. George's-
road, Camberwell. The fire was discovered raging
in the lower part of the house, and on the alarm
being given Mr. Harris made his way for the stair-
case, but was beaten back by the flames, and as a
last resource he tied a sheet to the bedpost and
lowered his family out of the window. The
Surrey Volunteer Fire Brigade from Hill-street,
Peckham, was shortly on the spot, under the direc-
tion of Captain Irvine and Sergeant Curtis, but
owing to the delay from the want of water and the
disgraceful state of the St. George's-road, the house
was burnt to the ground. Insured in the Atlas
Fire Office.

The Alta Californian says the preparations for
the commencement of the United States Pacific Telegraph
Company's line are completed, and in a few days a large
force will commence operations. The new line will have
a double wire upon a single set of poles from San Francisco
to Fort Kearney, at which point the wires will diverge,
one running to St. Louis and the other to Chicago. Tho
total length of this line will be 3,270 miles, including both
the St. Louis and Chicago branches, and 6,040 miles of
wire will be required in its construction.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Thiz_Day.

THAMES.

SELLING BEER WITHOVT A LICENCE.—George Gerlock, a
native of Germany, appeared before Mr. Partridge, upon an
adjourned summons, charged with unlawfully selling beer
without a licence in an old established public-house, called
the Black Horse and Windmill, Fieldgate-street, White-
chapel, and which house has for many years been fre-
quented by natives of Germany.
This was a proceeding instituted by Inspector Holloway,
of the H division of police, by order of the Commissioners
of Police. The defendant formerly kept a beer shop called
the Jolly Sailor, in Whitechapel. Much disorder prevailed
in the house, and the defendant was fined ..£5 and costs for
permitting gambling in his beer house. A few weeks
since the defendant agreed to purchase the good-
will and fixtures of the Black Horse and Wind-
mill public - house, and applied to Mr. Paget,
one of the magistrates of the Thames Police-
court for au interim order of protection until there was a
transfer day of the licensing magistrates t f the division,
by whom the transfer from the old to the new tenant of the
house can be made. The usual report ou the defendant's
application was made by Inspector Holloway, and upon
that report the magistrate refused to grant the defendant
an order of protection. Gerlock, notwithstanding this,
took possession of the Black Horse and Windmill, and acted
as landlord in defiance of the law. A complaint was soon
made against him by the police for suffering drunkenness,
disorderly conduct, and fighting in his house, and a sum-
mons taken out for an infraction of the law, which was
ordered to stand over until the present case was dispose
of. On the 18th of last month, Inspector Holloway
went to the Black Horse and Windmill, and saw
the defendant acting as landlord there. The in-
spector told Gerlock he was doing wrong, and that he
had no right to sell anything until the house was trans-
ferred to him. Gerlock took no notice of the warning.
On the 20th of October Inspector Holloway went to the
public-house again, in company with Archer, a constable,
No. 101 H, and saw the defendant sell beer and receive the
money for it. This was the specific offence charged. On
the same evening Archer went alone to the house, and saw
Gerlock sell gin, but, although the fact was proved, he was
not charged with selling spirits without a license, and
which offence, if legally charged, would have rendered him
liable to a much larger penalty.
A gentleman from the Inland Revenue-office proved that
the lieense granted to a former occupier of the Black Ho-se
and Windmill expired in the month of October last, and it
had not been renewed.

The evidence having been translated to Gerlock by Mr.
Wentgen, an interpreter, he said he regularly bought the
public-house of the former occupier, and paid a deposit.
He took possession under the agreement, and, owing to the
magistrate not having granted him protection, he was
compelled to give up the house, and had lost the deposit
money.

Mr. Brown, a public-house appraiser, said the Black
Horse and Windmill was sold to the defendant condition-
ally.

Mr. Partridge said the defendant was not a fit and pro-
per person to keep a public-house in which good rule nod
order was to be maintained. The defendant had violated
the law with his eyes open, after he had been warned.
The highest penalty was £2O, and the lowest £5. He
should order the defendant to pay a fine of £lO.
It was stated that the defendant had paid £5O deposit on
the house, the whole of which he had forfeited.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

Fresh up to our market, to-day, the arrivals of English
wheat were very moderate. The trade, however, ruled
quiet ; nevertheless, the late advance in prices was well
supported.

There was only a moderate supply of foreign wheat on
the stands. In most descriptions sales progressed slowly,
at late rates.

Floating cargoes of grain wore in request at extreme
currencies.

The market was more extensively supplied with barley.
Most qualities of produce were in fair request at fully late
rates.

The malt trade was firm at quite Monday's currency.
Oats were in good supply, but the supplies on offer
almost entirely represented foreign produce. There was a
fair demand for most qualities at full prices.
Beans and peas were in short supply, and the trade ruled
firm at extreme rates.

Most descriptions of flour were in steady request at full
quotations.
