The following estimate may serve to show the
extent of the active industry yearly carried on in
the depths of the Canadian forest. In 1863 about 27,000,000
cubic feet of timber was aut on the Ottawa and its tribu-
taries. No less than 25,000 men are engaged in getting out
and manufacturing this timber for market. There are
annually consumed 12,000 barrels of pork and 15,000 barrels
of flour in the production of square timber. The horses
deirour 6,000 tons of bay and 275,000 bushels of oats.—

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
'(Before Mr. Registrar Winslow.)
IN RE MAJOR BROWNE-A WINNER ON TILE DERBY.
This bankrupt was described as a major in the 69th
Regiment, and to-day was appointed for the order of dis-
charge. There has been an attempt to effect a settlement
under a deed of composition, creditors to the extent of
£2,880 having assented. One of the creditors has filed an
affidavit setting forth that the bankrupt was a winner of
£2,500 on the last Derby, ho having backed Gladiateur for
a large sum. It is anticipated that eventually the case will.
be settled.

(Before Mr. Registrar Brougham.)
IN RE REV. JOSHUA FINLINSos.

This bankrupt was .described as of 'l3rockley Rectory,
Suffolk, clerk in holy criers, and to-day was appointed for
proof of debts. The debts are not very heavy, and the
cause of the.baukruptcy is said to be pressure by creditors,
in consequence of which the bankrupt has been obliged to
resign the position he held as rector of Brockley, which
was worth £5OO per annum. Debts to the extent of about
.£350 are on the file.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET

A SAD STORY.—Eliza Adams, a married woman, was
charged before Mr. Knox with stealing a blanket and other
articles, the property of her landlord, Mr. Emery, 53, King-
street, Soho. ,

The prosecutor proved that the prisoner and her hus-
band lodged in private rooms belonging to him, and that
he missed a blanket and other articles.
The articles were produced by two -pawnbrokers, who
stated that the prisoner pledged them.
The prosecutor said he was sorry for the prisoner's hus-
band, who was a respectable, hardworking man, and who,
as well as his boy, took home all their earnings, which the
prisoner spent in drink.
_ _

The husband stepped forward, and,- evidently much
affected, said he had done all ho could for his wife. lie
never went into a publichouse, and yet his wife said she
had pledged the things for food for the children. About
12 months ago he was charged at that court with striking
his wife, and committed for a month, but after the magis-
trate (Mr. Tyrwhitt) heard his character from his employer
he at once liberated him. A short Cate before he had come
home from service on board a man-of-war, and although all
the time he was away he sent his wife his half-pay regu-
larly, he found her sitting in a coffee shop, having no place
to go to. lie had made his wife seven or eight homes, but
she drank them all away, and for the last four nights they
had had nothing to cover them.
Mr. Knox said it was a shocking story to hear, and ho
felt that the best thing he could do for the husband would
be to send the prisoner away for such a term as would
possibly cure her.

The prisoner,•who pleaded guilty, was committed for
three months with hard labour.

We have been requested to state that no person of the
name of Henry Edwards, the name of a young man charged
with disorderly conduct at this court a few days since,
resides at No. 14, Harrington-street, Hampstead-road.
