LAW

NCE.

property of Messrs. Hedge, Lowman, and Co., silk
mercers, 256, Regent-street.
Mr. Orchard, one of the partners, 'stated that the pri-
soner had been in the habit of dealing largely at their
shop, sometimes laying out with them 5001. or 6001. a-
year,i and that at the present moment she owed them an
aecount of about 1501. For some length of time past
the firm suspected they were robbed by the. accused, and
in order to ascertain if their suspicions were well founded
they placed a watch upon her whenever she came to
make purchases at the shop. The accused came to the
shop that day about 11 o'clock, and was detected in pil-
fering a small quantity of cotton velvet ribbon. The
property which he could identify as belonging to the
firm, was worth about a shilling, and was found in her
possession.
John Davenport, assistant to Messrs. Hodge and Co.
said—About 10 minutes past 11 this morning prisoner
entered the shop and asked me to show her some tinge.
I showed her some, and she then asked for some cotton
velvet ribbon. I showed the box to her, but she could
not find a piece to suit her. I showed her a remnant of
the same kind of goods, and she purchased it for 2s. She
then asked to look at some cloak ornaments. She
bought a small quantity, and the amount of her pur-
chases, 3s. 6d., was entered to her account in the books.
I knew the prisoner, and was aware she dealt largely
with the firm. The piece of cotton velvet ribbon now
produced I believe to be'the property of my employers.
Stanley Wells, another assistant—This morning the
prisoner came into the shop to be served. I had sus-
picions of her, and I watched her. I saw the first wit-
ness show her a box of velvet ribbons. I saw her take
from the box and place between the box and herself, this
piece of velvet ribbon (produces property.) I saw hei
place her arms over the ribbon and across the counter.
I saw the last witness take the box away, and I per-
ceived the prisoner wrap up the piece of ribbon velvet
in her shawl. I immediately mentioned what I had
seen to Mr. Orchard. A constable was sent for, and the
prisoner was given into custody. The prisoner then took
the 'piece of ribbon from its place of concealment and
delivered it up.
George Finding, another assistant—l saw the prisoner
being served. I saw her cover her arms over a piece of
velvet ribbon, which she had placed between herself and
the box. I saw her move a little lower down, and
directly afterwards she seemed to be concealing some-
thing witir her shawl.
Mr. Fisher, who attended for the prisoner, cross-
examined the witnesses, but failed in shaking their evi-
dence.
The prisoner, who stood at the bar concealing her
face, made no remark.
Mr. Bingham said he was satisfied if he sent the case
to a jury that no conviction would take place in con-
sequence of the previous extensive dealings of the pri-
soner with the firm, and the large sum they still trusted
her, coupled with- the small value of the article alleged
to be stolen. In his experience of such cases it some-
times happened, where an acquittal took place, that pro-
secutors found themselves harassed by ulterior legal
proceedings. He was, however, quite prepared to send
the case to the sessions if the prosecutor chose to go on
with the case.
Mr. Orchard would not press the case, being satisfied
with the exposure which had occurred.
The prisoner was discharged.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—JAN. 6.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RE GRAVES EX PARTE BRADSHAW.-JUDGIIENT.
This case was argued before his Honour some days
ago, and he now gave judgment in the following terms :
—This case was submitted for my decision by the con-
sent of all parties. It appears that Mr. Bradshaw had
purchased certain property at a sale by auction, on cer-
tain conditions, and had deposited with Mr Hoard, the
auctioneer, the sum of 481. as a deposit. The auction
took place in 1842. Eventually Mr. Bradshaw was
dissatisfied with the title, and abandoned the contract.
He now seeks to recover the deposit from the assignees,
alleging that they have been enabled to get more for the
property. The cases relied on were " Burrough v.
Skinner," (5 Bur. 2,609) ; Edwards v. Hoddesley," (5
Taunt. 817) ; " Farquhar v. Farley," (7 Taun. 592.;)
" Lee v. Munn," (8 Taunt. 45) ; " Bamford v. Shuttle-
worth" (11 Ad. and Ell. 926.) In my judgment, Mr.
Bradsdaw's right to recover the deposit exists against
the auctioneer, and not against the assignees ; as
neither the bankrupt nor the assignees have ever re-
ceived the money. I am aware that Mr. Hoard claims a
right to set it off against a debt due to him by the bank-
rupt, but I am of opinion he had no right to do so.

IN RE POLLARD.
The bankrupt, Charles Pollard, had kept the Old
Bell inn, Wellington-street North, Strand. This was
the adjourned meeting for the last examination. The
accounts have been already published. At the last
meeting the assignees required an additional cash ac-
count, and also some information as to portions of his
property.
Mr. Taylor, for the assignees, stated that the addi-
tional accounts had not been furnished, and asked for an
adjournment sine die.
Mr. Cooke, for the bankrupt, stated that want of funds
had prevented him complying with the request of the
assignees.
His Honour said he must order an adjournment sine
die ; the bankrupt might come up again when he was
prepared with fresh accounts. Protection would be
given in the mean time.
Mr. Taylor stated that a question had arisen whether
the deposit of the lease by the tenant, constituting an
equitable mortgage, extended to the tenant's fixtures,
which were claimed in this instance by the mortgagee.
The assignees contended that, as the articles in question
were distrainable for rent, they would pass to them, and
not to the mortgagee.
Mr. Groves, for the mortgagee, cited some cases in
support of the opposite doctrine. •
The Commissioner—You do not contend that they pass
under the use, order, and disposition clause ?
Mr. Taylpr—l should submit that in the second alter-
native. The articles were upon the premises, and sub-
jects on which he obtained credit.
The Commissioner—At present it appears to me that
the mortgagee is entitled to them ; but I will look into
the cases, and if I alter my opinion I will let you know.
IN RR BELL-NOVEL APPLICATION. .
The bankrupt was a coal merchant of Newcastle-
upon-Tyne, who had first petitioned the court under
the arrangement clauses, and afterwards been made
bankrupt.
Mr. Lawrance now applied to the court to order the
return of 1001., which the bankrupt had borrowed from
his brother, in order to enable him to lodge a suffi-
cient sum (200/.) with the official assignee for his peti-
tion to be entertained under the arrangement clauses.
His Honour said the application was a very unusual
one, and could not be acceded to by the court. It was
incumbent on every trader coming to the court on his
own petition to show that he had 2001. of assets, or suf•
ficient to pay his.creditors ss. in the pound. This was
the basis of the whole proceeding, and without it the
ietition would be dismissed. He should therefore refuse
,o make any order in the case.

SOUTHWARK.—Mr. Blake, the vestry clerk o
Christ Church, Southwark, attended before Mr
A'Beckett, in pursuance of a summons obtained by bin
against one of the cabmen plying for hire inside the
Brighton Railway terminus, for refusing to take him
when desirous of hiring him while plying for hire at
that station.
When the summons was called on, the wife of the
cabman stepped forward, and informed his worship that
her husband was unavoidably absent, and would not be
able to attend that day. He was compelled to go to
Ashford to see his father who was ill, therefore she hoped
that an adjournment would be allowed. She had hoped
that the gentleman did not intend to press the charge.
Mr. Blake objected to art adjournment. He had
attended that day at considerable expense and incen-
venience, 'therefore he wished the case to go on. He
had summoned the defendant on public grounds, and he
was determined to prosecute every one of his class who
served him in a similar mannei% There were hundreds
of such cases daily at railway stations, but very few
took the trouble of summoning the delinquents, conse-
quently they did as they pleased.
The wife urged that her husband would attend
another day, therefore she hoped that the magistrate
would postpone the hearing.
Mr. Blake said that he had been shamefully treated
by the cabman at the railway station. He came up by
a Brighton train on Monday noon, when he saw the de-
fendant plying for hire near the platform, and he picked
him out, beinc, desirous of hiring him. Instead of
taking him he drove away and took up another fare,
with which he left the station.
Mr. A'Beckett said he thought that there were such
excellent arrangements with regard to public cabs at the
Brighton terminus. He had received a number of anony-
mous letters from parties praising the company's system,
and disapproving of his judgment in a similar ease.
Mr. Blake said he was positive that these arrange-
ments were bad and inconvenient to the public. The de-
fendant told him he was hired by a lady and gentleman,
but he took up other parties. The cabmen at that sta-
tion picked their fares, and when a single fare presented
himself, they drove off to look after ladies and luggage.
In his case the cabman would have had is. 6d. fare.
Mr. A'Beckett told the female she should have corn.
municated with the complainant about her husband's
absence, as that would have saved him the trouble of
attending. He should, however, adjourn the summons
until Thursday next.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Phillips.)

IN ItE THEM:I/MU JOHN LUGGER.-FOLLY AND EXTRAVA

GANCIL

This insolvent, a young man described as a gentleman,
in no business or occupation, applied to be discharged
from the Queen's Prison, where he had been confined
some time. No creditor opposed.
The schedule exhibited debts to 5721., and' liabilities
to 2,200/. He had 721. owing to him. The insolvency
was attributed to his having been "so foolish in spend-
ing his own means recklessly," and to various losses.
There were 32 creditors on the schedule, and in addition
to the debts now owing the insolvent, since 1847, had
received a good deal of money from sales of his property,
which he had spent in the manner described. The
schedule further described the insolvent of Christ's
College,_ Cambridge, and of the Temple, where he was
studying for the bar.
Mi. Commissioner Phillips inspected the schedule,
and seemed surprised at its contents.
The insolvent, in answer to the learned Commissioner,
said he had been to Cambridge. His late father was a
clergyman of the Church of England.
Mr. Commissioner Phillips said he saw by the schedule

that the insolvent had indulged in every species of ex-
travagance. The creditors did not oppose, which they
might have done, and as such was the case he should
not take upon himself to oppose. Had the creditors
opposed it would have been his duty to have pronounced
a judgment. The insolvent really ought to be ashamed
of himself. He said he had received large sums from the
sale of his property-7001. and 8001.—and all had been
spent. He had studied for a profession, by which he
might have got his living, but instead of that he had
been foolishly spending all his money. He (the corn-
misioner) had never in all his seen such extravagance as
the schedule disclosed.
His Honour asked the insolvent whether he had any
property left ?
The insolvent, "None at all."
Mr. Commissioner Phillips—Pray, what is your age ?
Insolvent-26 next birthday.
Mr. Commissioner Phillips said he saw various losses,
and money for billiards, indeed every extravagance. His
Honour added, " Perhaps the beat thing for you is, that
your poor father is not alive."
The insolvent was ordered to be discharged from
prison.

THAMES.—James Louton, an pld man who was sup
ported on crutches, and who we believe is nearly
seventy years of age, was brought before Mr. Yardley
on remand, charged with feloniously receiving 17 cwt.
of iron, the property of the Rateliff Gas Company, he
well knowing it to be stolen.
A quantity of retort doors and other iron had been
stolen from the premises of the Ratcliff Gas Company
in Shadwell.
Mr. Gill, the secretary of the company, described the
retort doors as valuable, particularly at this season of
the year, and worth from Bi. to 9/. The whole of them
were traced to the prisoner, who had purchased a por-
tion of the iron, the remainder having been taken in by
an old woman named Elizabeth Sims, the ostensible pro-
prietor of the " marine store shop" kept by Louton, who
had taken her out of the workhouse and put her in
charge of the place. She was called a witness for the
crown, and said the house she was in belonged to
Louton, and that she bought some of the iron of several
boys, and Louton purchased the remainder. It was en-
deavouTed to fix upon this woman the whole responsi-
bility of the transaction, but she swore that she was
Louton's servant, and that he paid her ls. per week
and her board and lodging. The prisoner sold the iron
to Mr. John Stephenson, an iron moulder, who at
once suspected that it came from the Ratcliff Gas
Company's works, and gave information to Potter,
a police constable, No. 212 K, who took possession
of 24 retort doors. Louton afterwards called upon Mr.
Stephenson for the money, and on being asked by Potter
where he obtained the retorts, he said he purchased
them of a Mr. Sims, and took the policeman to his own
house. • Potter ascertained that Mr. Sims was dead, and
that his widow was in the employ of Louton. It also
appeared that the dealings of the prisoner had been for
some time of a very suspicious nature, and that he had
been previously charged with having stolen property in
his possession.
In answer to questions by Mr. Yardley, the Secretary
of the Gas Company said that the retort doors had been
locked up in a warehouse, and that he did not know
how they had been abstracted. Mr. Gill added, that
the company which he had the honour to represent had
suffered very considerably from similar depredations.
Mr. Stephenson said that the prisoner asked him 17s.
6d. only for the whole of the iron, and upon asking him
where he obtained it, he said he purchased it in White-
chapel.
Mr. Pelham, who defended the prisoner, said his client
was a respectable man of strict integrity, who up to this
time had not been guilty of any offence or ever convicted.
The prisoner had occupied the same house for many
• years, and was a blacksmith by trade, and a very hard
working man. He was instructed that the old woman,
Elizabeth Sims, had been taken out of the workhouse
by the prisoner from motives of charity, and he put her
into business in a marine store shop. Mrs. 'Sims, took
in the iron without the knowledge of Louton, who re-
gretted very much that she had done so.
The prisoner emphatically declared he was not at
home when the iron was brought into his house ; but
Mrs. Sims, on being confronted with him said he was
present when some of it was brought in by two boys.
Mr. Nathaniel Rix, an iron moulder, was called to
speak to the prisoner's character, and said he was a very
respectable man.
Mr. Yardley—Do you consider a person who purchases
stolen iron of children, is a respectable man
Mr. Rix—No, sir, I do not.
Mr. Yardley said that was what the prisoner had
done. This was one of those cases he was very glad to
have an opportunity of meeting. It was not often he
could get hold of receivers—of such men as the pri-
soner—who were miscalled "dealers in marine stores ;"
but were, in reality, receivers of stolen property. He
was just such a person, with such a Character before the
world, that could perpetuate vices and receive stolen
property with impunity, because of his known good cha-
racter. He considered this a very gross case indeed,
and there were various reasons why he should dispose
of it summarily. Notwithstanding the prisoner's age
. and apparent infirmities he should pass a severe sentence
upon him for receiving stolen property from children,
and it was an aggravation of his offence that he had
attempted to throw all the blame on his miserable dupe,
Mrs. Sims. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned
and kept to hard labour for two calendar months. If
he had sent the prisoner before a jury the imprisonment
would have been much larger.
The iron was ordered to be restored to the Ratcliff
Gas Company.
