LAMBETH.—This being the day named for the final
examination of Francis Robert Newton and William
Philip Newton, the persons charged with the murderous
assault on Mr. Stewart Ker, in the pleasure grounds at
the Beulah Spa, Norwood, on Friday, the 4th of last
month, the court was more than ordinarily crowded
with persons anxious to hear the proceedings. Their
curiosity, however, was doomed to disappointment ; for
notwithstanding the favourable account received from
Mr. Ker last week, he is not yet considered sufficiently
recovered to undergo the excitement of an examination.
The defendants, accompanied by their friends, including
Sir Robert Price, M.P. for Hereford, were in attendance
at one o'clock, in discharge of their recognizances, and
soon after a clerk from the office of Mr. Wontner, who
is the solicitor for the prosecution, appeared and in-
formed Mr. Elliott that Mr. Ker would not be in attend-
ance on that day to give his evidence, and therefore he
had to apply to his worship for a further remand. The
applicant here read the following letter, which had been
received by Mr. Wontner on the subject, and as soon as
it was received notice was given to the Messrs.
Newton that the case could not be further gone into
on that day :
" H.erne.Bay, Sept. 25, 1554.
"My dear Sir—l am very sorry to inform you that Mr.
Ker is not so well as when I last wrote you. I assure you
we both regret it much, as it is our most anxious wish this
unpleasant affair should be at an end. I trust, however,
another wish will effect a great change, but I do not think
it prudent of me to let him go to town, and undergo ex-
citement until I feel certain he is in a'fit state.--I remain,
dear sir, yours truly, " E. S. KER.
" Wontncr, Esq."
Mr. Elliott observed that, under the circumstances,
the case must be adjourned to a future day, and the
parties must find bail.
Mr. Newton—We are prepared with bail ; but I can-
not help saying that it is a very great hardship to be
obliged to attend here week after week, and the same
cause may go on to any extent, in fact interminately.
Mr. Elliott—l do not consider it any very great hard-
ship under the circumstances ; on the contrary, I con-
sider you have been treated with great leniency.
Mr. William Newton—May I ask whether there is
any medical testimony produced to day to show that
Mr. Ker is not in a fit state to attend

Mr. Elliott—No, there is no medical evidence ; but
there is the letter from :Sirs. Ker, stating that her hus-
band is not in a fit state to attend and be examined.
Mr. William Newton—Then I submit that the letter
of Mrs. Ker is no legal evidence.
Mr. Elliott—That is matter for my discretion, and I
have given try decision. I repeat that you have been
treated with great leniency, and I am much surprised at
your expression of discontent.
Sir Robert Pric'e observed that happening to be in
town he attended with pleasure to bail the young men,
and thought it would have been their final examination.
He (Sir Robert) doubted whether he should be in town
next week to renew his bail, and it would be exceedingly
inconvenient to him to come 160 miles to do so. It
would be also a considerable hardship on the young men
to be obliged to find bail to such an extradrdinary
amount in a case wherein their conduct was very diffe-
rent indeed from that which had been represented.
Mr. Wontner's clerk objected to the observations of
the honourable baronet in a case in which he had no
locus stanch. _

Sir Robert, however, proceeded to say that be con-
sidered it a great hardship on the young men to be put
to such trouble from time to time, while they had not
the slightest opportunity of cross-examining the wit-
nesses, or removing the unfavourable impression that
had gone forth about them.
Mr. Elliott assured the hon. baronet that the accused
parties had the most ample opportunity of cross-
examining the different witnesses called.
Sir Robert observed that they had no opportunity of
cross-examining the complainant.
Mr. Elliott replied that this was owing to his not be-
ing able to attend.
Mr. Francis Newton said he understood Mr. Tier was
well able to attend. _ _ _

Upon which Mr. Elliott remarked that he had given
his decision in the matter, which was that they (the de-
fendants) should renew the bail to a future day, when
Mr. her could attend.

The required bail was then put in, and the defendants
left the court in company with their friends.

GIIILDHALL.—A poor woman of the name of
Margaret Murray applied to Sir R. W. Carden for his
advice and assistance under the following circumstances.

She stated that during the last four years she had from
time to time placed a portion of her earnings in a
savings hank in Farringdon-street, called " The City of
London Loan and Deposit Society," and that up to the
date of her last payment, which was made on the 12th
of August last, her deposits amounted to 301. 16s. 6d.
Being, however, distressed for money, she wished to
draw out 21., when she was informed that the secretary
had absconded to Australia with all the deposits in the
society's hands, and they could not, therefore, pay any
money out until they had examined the accounts And
ascertained the amount left, of which she would receive
her proportion according to what she had paid in.
Sir R. W. Carden, on looking to the list of directors,
said, from the names of those gentlemen he thought the
directors were a fictitious body of individuals, otherwise,
if this were an indictable offence, he should feel it his
duty to indict the whole of them. He would, however,
ascertain who were the parties liable, for he would
summon the clerks to whom. Mrs. Murray paid her
money, and learn from them why they refused to pay
her part of the money she had paid in. It was very
shocking that all ais poor woman's hard earnings should
be wrung from her just as she was expecting to reap the
benefit of her savings, and he would give her every as-
sistance in his power to make the society pay up.
A summons was then issued against 11. Shepherd, re-
quiring his immediate attendance, and in a short time
that individual appeared, and stated he was the chief
clerk to the society, and received 11. per week for his
services.

Sir R. W. Carden—This woman complains that she
has paid 307. into this society, and now that her husband
is sick, and she distressed for want of 21., you refuse to
pay her.
Shepherd—ln consequence of our secretary having
absconded in July last, and being at the time a consider-
able defaulter, the affairs of the society have lately been
put into the hands of an actuary, and until the accounts
have been examined, my instructions are to pay out no
money on the deposit account.
Sir R. W. Carden—Do you receive any money ?
Shepherd—No, sir ; not as deposits.
Sir R. W. Carden—What do you mean by that ?
Shepherd—Why, sir, there is a sick insurance con-
nected with the deposit society, and we continuo to re-
ceive and pay out money on the former account, because
it was established as a benefit society.
Sir R. W. Carden—And I think we shall find it is
not a benefit to any one.
Shepherd then said there were six directors, but that
one of them was dead, and he did not know where an-
other of them was to be found. They, however, at-
tended regularly every week, for which they received 5s
each.

Sir R. W. Carden—Where do you place the money
deposited with the society ? Shepherd—ln the Bank of
England, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—ln whose name is the account
Shepherd—That of " Thomas Emmett," and others.
Sir R. W. Carden—Where does Emmett live then
Shepherd—He is dead, sir, and the account is carried on
in his and ti►e other trustees' names.
Sir R. W. Barden—What is the amount of the so-
ciety's account at the Bank of England ! Shepherd—l
don't know, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—Have you any money invested ?
Shepherd—Yes, sir. I believe we have some in the
funds.
Sir R. W. Carden—What kind of stock is it invested
in ? Shepherd—l don't know, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—Do you mean to say that as chief
clerk of this society you do not know how the money
is invested ? Shepherd—l never heard how it was.
Sir R. W. Carden—How much money have you re-
ceived from insurances during this and previous weeks ?
Shepherd—On an average from 30/. to 401. per week,
but I have paid out 30/. per week to sick insurers.
Sir R. W. Carden—And what do you do with the
money you receive every week ?
Shepherd—l give it to the directors.
Sir R. W. Carden—Have you filed any annual ac-
counts anywhere ?
Shepherd—No, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—What is the amount of your de-
posit account ?
Shepherd--Between 8,000/. and 9,000/.
Sir R. W. Carden—Had your secretary charge of the
insurance fund as well as the deposit fund ?

Shepherd—He had, sir.
Sir R. W. Careen—And he took the money of both
accounts?

Shepherd—Yes, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—What amount did he abscond
with !
Shepherd—l don't know, sir.
Sir R. W. iCarden—Then what is your reason for
stopping the deposit account, and continuing the in-
surance account ?
Shepherd—l don't know. Those are my instructions.
Sir R. W. Carden—ln fact, your instructions are to
receive all you can and pay nothing. Where does your
actuary live ?
Shepherd—l don't know, sir.
Sir R. W. Carden—What ! do you mean to say that
you have employed an actuary ever since July last, and
do not know where he lives?
Shepherd—lt is only within the last few days that the
directors have employed an actuary.
Sir It. W. Carden—Then, although the secretary ab-
sconded in July the directors have neglected to examine
the accounts until very lately. Really this is a very
extraordinary way of conducting a benefit society. I
suppose the directors are more attentive with regard to
their fees
Shepherd—They receive them every fortnight.
Sir R. W. Carden—Notwithstanding the complicated
state of their affairs just now '•
Shepherd—Certainly, sir. (Laughter.)
Sir R. W. Carden—Really this is no laughing matter.
This poor woman has lost all her hard-earned savings,
and now that she requires a little money to help her
husband through his illness, and meet her present ne-
cessities, she finds the deposit account closed. The chief
clerk, from whom we might have expected every infor-
mation, knows nothing, or forgets what he should
know. I shall, however, see that this case is thoroughly
investigated, and summon the directors, who may per-
haps give us more information than their chief clerk,
and if they are not careful they will find themselves in
a very awkward position.
Mr. Roe said he • had seen Mr. Buxton, one of the
direetcra, who had promised to attend whenever the ma-
gistrate would be prepared-to reolve his explanation.
Six R. W. Carden-..As the direetors meet this after.

* The receipts include the traffic ou the Orleans and Central,Or-
leans and Bordeaux, and Tours and Nantes.

[AnvEkTrsEmENTl—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
wonderful Remedies for the Cure of Bad Legs,—Mr.
Slater, of Steno, states, in a letter to Professor Iloilo-
sway, that ho has seen many cures effected by his inva-
luable ()lament and pills, one in particular he mentions
as most extraordinary, that of a stonemason, working
on the n3w Catholic church in that town, whose foot
and ankl3 was one complete mass of sores—the worst
he ever leheld—but by the application of the remedies
for a short time it was really astonishing to see the
rapid cure these valuable medicines perfected, as his foot
is soundly and permanently healed. Sold by all vendors
