brook as
two 6.--f -11,1t,a previous meeting 4181. on bills
book as having bee.. ap,„„l ",
not. The Commissioner wouldiforatitiwTrov-irfßnittate
for the two last mentioned bills, and an appeal to the Court
-c _was made, which Court remitted back the whole
claim for proor.
Mr. Commissioners EvAils gave judgment. The proof
tendered was supported merely by the oath of the creditors,
the bankrupt having absconded ; and no entry of the trans-
actions either in the books of the bankrupt or creditors,
except in the bill-book, as to two of the bills. The Learned
Commissioner proceeded to detail numerous cases bearing
on the point of sufficient evidence as to debts, and con-
cluded by saying, that in order to protect the public against
fraud, " I felt myself compelled to lay it down as a general
rule for my own guidance, that I would not admit proofs
merely on the oaths of the creditor and bankrupt. The
rule has operated most beneficially to honest creditors.
Having taken considerable pains to publish the rule in
question, and being still firmly convinced that the reasons
for the rule are unanswerable, I find myself, in defiance of
the rule, bound to adjudge that this proof be admitted for
the Court of Review, on an appeal from my judgment, in
a case where this rule applied admitted the proof. I should
certainly not feel myself bound to submit to the opinion of
that'Court, were it a question upon which there could be an
appeal, but there can be no appeal in this case, and the only
consequence of my deciding according to my own convic-
tion would be to saddle the estate with very heavy costs,
which, as it could procure no other result, would be very
unjustifiable."
A proof was offered for 1,5001. by a banking company of
Liverpool, which was opposed, as notice of the dishohour of
the bills had not been sent to the assignees.
The Solicitor, in support of the proof, contended that it
was sufficient if notice was given at the residence of the
bankrupt. No decision had yet been given upon this im-
portant question. In the case of the Hibernian Joint Stock
Company, due diligence had not been used, but here notice
had been given at the residence of the bankrupt of the dis-
honour of the bills.
The COMMISSIONER considered that notice ought to have
been given to the assignees; and the intimation left at the
bankrupt's house, which he had quitted for some time pre-
viously, was not sufficient. He could not, therefore, allow
the proof, but would permit the claim to be entered to await
the decision of a superior Court.
The further proceedings were then adjourned.
In the bankruptcy, " Bentley, Dear, and Company,* a
further dividend on the joint estate of 15..5d. in the pound
has been declared, making Bs. 5d., including former divi-
dends. It is expected the estate will realise 10s. in the
Pound.

Q UEEN-SQ UARE.

A man named Waller Evans was brought before
Messrs. BURRELL and WHITE, charged with an assault
upon one of the parish officers of St. Margaret, 'Westmin-
ster. Upon the assault being disposed of, the prisoner was
identified by Inspector Avery of the B division, as being
one of the party who had committed an extensive burglary
in Greenwich in May, 1834. It appeared that immediately
after the burglary had been effected, the prisoner was ap-
prehended by Serjeant Julian of the R division, and con-
veyed before the Greenwich Bench of Magistrates, before
whom he underwent a long examination, and was ultimately
committed for trial upon the capital charge of housebreak-
ing ; but in consequence of there being some doubts exist-
ing as to his identity, the bail of two highly respectable gen-
tlemen was taken for his appearance at the following Maid-
stone assizes. He, however, did not appear to take his trial,
and the recognizances became forfeited. Every inquiry was
made respecting him by the police ; and although handsome
rewards had been offered for his apprehension by his
bail, no clue had been obtained of him until the present
time, and it was supposed that he had emigrated to Ame-
rica. The gentlemen who had entered into the bail at-
tended in the course of the day, and applied for the prisoner
to be given up to their custody ; but the Magistrates said
that a tine of 405., or one month's imprisonment, had been
inflicted for the assault, and until the penalty was paid, they
could not discharge him. In default of the penalty being
paid, the Magistrhttcs undertook that at the expiration of
the term of imprisonment be should, be given up to the
police for trial, upon the charge of burglary, at the next
Maidstone Assizes.

MAR YLEB ONE.

Yesterday Charles Gray and Jane Tuccr, alias Rout,
alias Puckeridge, two middle-aged persons, of very dashin
exterior, were placed at the bar before Messrs. RAwuNsoN
and HosKINS, charged with having been fin- some time Fast
engaged in the following impudent and extensive system of
swindling. The office was thronged with sufferers.
Mr. Thomas Swales, builder, of No. 14, Circus-road,
St. John's Wood, stated that about a year and a half back
the male prisoner called upon him concerning a house which
he had let at No. 10, Grove-terrace, Lisson-grove, and
which he (the prisoner) said he wanted for a Mrs. Jane
Rout, a lady of high connection and ample fortune, then
residing at Romsey, in Hampshire. The prisoner, on being
shewn the premises, expressed his conviction that they
would exactly suit, and took his leave,' promising to call
again in a few days. He did so, with the female prisoner,
whom he represented as being Mrs. Rout, the " lady" he
had alluded to. An agreement for three years was then
drawn up, when the lady was immediately Fut in posses-
sion, and shortly afterward=, by various artifices, she induced
him to send in a quantity of valuable furniture, and when
he called for payment at the period stipulated, be was asto-
nished to find the house shut up, the " lady" and furniture
having disappeared. Not one farthing of rent had been paid.
Mr. Alexander Cooper, baker, of No. 19, Everett-street,
Russell-square, said that the female prisoner bad obtained
a quantity of bread of him by representing herself as an
officer's widow, receiving her pay every two months, and
having a son in the London University.
Mr. Thomas Parker, tailor, of No. 101, Edg,eware-road
was the next victim. The male prisoner had contrived, 13.3
means similar to the above, to obtain two suits of clothes
which he never paid for.
A number of other persons made similar complaints, and
among the rest was a newsman, who had supplied them witl
a morning- paper for two months.
From the evidence of a man named Stevens, who formerly
cohabited svith.the female prisoner, it appeared that Gray,
in October last, took the Blue Posts public-bouse, in
Southampton-buildings, Holborn ; the licence, however,
was never transferred to him, and he cheated everybody in
the neighbourhood ; and in order to prevent Stevens from
exposing his villany, he bad him arrested upon a fictitious
debt.
The prisoners were apprehended by two constables of the
D division, at No. 16, Dorset-place, New-road, just as they
were about to sit down to a dinner of lamb and asparagus.
' The prisoners were remanded to Monday, when it is ex-
pected Mr. Lowden, ironmonger, of Great- Queen-street,
who has suffered to the amount of 601., will attend, with a
' host of other tradesmen.

SPANISH AFFAIRS.

Earl MINTO said he had stated, a few evenings
since, as the reason for not producing the letter of
Lord John Hay, that he was not aware of the existence
of such a document, and the first intimation he received of
it was seeing it in the newspapers.—(Hear.) Yesterday
he had received a .copy of that communication from his
Hon. Friend Lord John Hay, and he thought it only fair
to the Noble Marquis (Londonderry) to state, that there was
no objection to the production of the letter, if the Noble
Marquis thought it desirable ; but as it had already been
made public, he did not see the utility of doing so.
No light could be further thrown on the subject, than what he
was willing to admit—namely, that instructions were given to
Lord John Hay to afford the most effective support to tho
Spanish Government.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY felt thankful to the
Noble Earl. He wished for the production of the papers, as they
might be useful as a record in the House, when Spanish
affairs were more fully under discussion. He wished for the
production of a document alluded to by the Noble Viscount at
the head of the Government as lately received, to show whether
or not the convention of Elviras had been strictly adhered to
in the Provinces to which it related.

Viscount MELB 0 URNE—That was a private letter.
After the presentation of petitions for the better observance
of the Sabbath, the House adjourned till to-morrow.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, APRIL 21.

The SPEAKER took the chair at the usual time; and, al-
though there was to be a Call of the House, the Reporters' gal-
lery was opened. The Strangers' gallery, however, was closed,
as on all former occasions, until after the Call was disposed of.
London, England, 1836-04-22

PRISONERS' COUNSEL BILL.

Lord DENMAN presented a petition from the Magistrates
of Salop, praying that the Bill now before the House, as it
was framed, for allowing Counsel to be heard in defence of
prisoners in cases of felony, might not be passed into a law.
They stated a few reasons why it should not pass ; some of
those reasons applied to the principles of the Bill, and others of
them to particular clauses of the Bill. The Noble and Learned
Lord stated that he entirely dissented from the
view they took of this subject. He was of opinion, and al-
ways had been, that it was necessary for the satisfaction cf
justice, that persons should be heard by Counsel in cases of
felony, as well as in other cases of fraud. Ile should be ready
to enter. into his reasons for entertaining that opinion when
the proper time arrived.
IRISH MUNICIPAL REFORM BILL.

Lord SUFFIELD presented a petition from the Corpora-
tion of Norwich, in favour of the Irish Municipal Reform Bill.
IRISH CONSTABULARY FORCE.

Lord EL L E NBOROUG H, seeing the Noble Viscount
( Duncannon) in his place, drew his attention to certain inaccura-
cies in the returns that had been laid on the Table relative
to the constabulary force in Ireland, as it was necessary the
returns should be made accurate before they come to the dis-
cussion upon the Bill.
Viscount D U NC ANNON said he had not prepared the re-
turns, and, therefore, he was not the author of any inaccuracy
in the returns, if any existed.
The Duke of WELLINGTON did not wish to throw any
impediment in the way of this measure ; but the effect of
it would be to enable the Lord Lieutenant to raise a force
without the control of the grand jury and magistrates. A
great part of the expense was charged on the grand juries,
and it was necessary to have an accurate account of what
these expenses had been under the present system, and
an estimate of what they would be hereafter, founded upon
the services of the inspectors or chief constables, or any
other data they pleased. But it was impossible that this Bill
could be allowed to pass, without some fair account of what
the cost was likely to be under it.
After a few observations from the Earl of WICKLOW and the
Earl of RIPON,
The Earl of HADDINGTON was anxious to ascertain
what the amount of patronage possessed by the Government
was.

Viscount DUNCANNON—If the return was framed in
that way, it could not be the return moved for.
Lord MELBOURNE thought the better course would be
for Noble Lords opposite to state in what points the present
return was deficient.

The conversation then dropped.
Mr. 0. GORE and others from the Commons, brought up
the London Grand Junction Railway Bill.

OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH.
The Earl of HADDINGTON presented a petition
from the Wesleyan Methodists of Whitefriars_street
Chapel, in favour of the better observance of the Sabbath.

The Earl of WINCHILSEA ,presented several i;tiiions
to the same effect. Also a petition from certain medical
practitioners, praying for compensation in attending coroners'
inquests. Also a petition from Margate for the abolition of
the punishment of death, except in cases of murder.

"In the practical information it conveys, My Note Book ' dif-
fers not only from the Recollections' (Beekford's), but from all
other impressions of travelling. Upon this point, indeed, it might
advantageously compete with any of the books of travels. The
number, the animation, and the vigour of its sketches of men,
manners, scenes, and the vivacity of the statistics themselves, seem
to fix its position in the class whore it is placed."—London and

IRISH CHURCH.

Mr. D. W. HARVEY gave notice that on the Order of the
Day for going into Committee on the Irish Church Bill,
he would move that it be an instruction to the Committee
to insert in any Bill for the abolition of tithes, that it was the
duty, and would be the care of the House, to provide a rent-
charge on the land, so that there might be no diminution in the
efficiency of that for which tithes were imposed. He also
gave notice that to-morrow he would present a petition from
occupiers of land in Radnorshire, complaining of arbitrary
conduct on the part of the Woods and Forests.
Mr. 0. CAVE presented a petition from the inhabitants
of the City of Westminster, praying the House to reject the
Amendments of the House of Lords in the Irish Municipal
Reform Bill. The petition went on to state that should the
House of Lords refuse to pass the Bill, after the rejection of
their amendments, it would show to the country that their op-
position to every measure of Reform showed the necessity of
an alteration of the Constitution, so as to impose responsibility
on the Members of the Upper House. The Hon. Member
presented a similar petition from Nenagb, in the county of Tip-
perary.

Lord J. RUSSELL hoped, considering the great public
anxiety there was, to learn the course which that House would
think fit to pursue, with respect to the amendments made by
the House of Lords in the Bill sent up to them from that
House for the Reform of the Irish Municipal Corporations,
that the Hon. Member for Worcester ( Mr. Robinson) would
consent to postpone his motien respecting Portugal, that stood
for that evening, so as to let the discussion on the Irish Corpo-,
ration Bill take precedence.
Mr. ROBINSON, under the circumstances, as stated by
the Noble Lord, would consent to postpone his motion ; but
only on the understanding that he should be allowed to bring
it forward on the first supply night or on the 19th of June.
He considered the question of our relations with Portugal so
important that he could not defer it, if he did not under-
stand that the course adopted by our GovernmCnt
was very likely to bring the whole of the matters that
were pending between the two Governments, and which were
of such great commercial interest, to a satisfactory conclu-
sion.—( Hear, hear.)
After a few observations from Lord JOHN RUSSELL,
which were inaudible in the gallery,
Mr. ROBINSON gave notice that be would bring forward
his motion on the 17th of July.

elector for Middlesex, and could assure the House that he had
not heard a word at all disrespectful to the House of Lords.—
( A laugh.)

DRAWING UP OF THE STATUTES.

Mr. AGL lONBY stated that his notice in the paper was
for a Select Committee to enquire into the expediency of ap-
pointing Commissioners to assist in the drawing and devis-
ing of the future statutes, so as to avoid a great many objec-
tions that existed to the present mode. He had no doubt the
Committee would be granted without any discussion, consi-
dering that he had the authority of the Noble Lord the Secre-
tary for the Home Department and the Right Hon. Baronet,
the Member for Tamworth, for saying that the present mode
ought to be altered. He only wished that so important a
subject had fallen into the hands of any other Member than
himself. He had spoken with the Commissioners who had re-
ported on the consolidation of the Statute Law, (and a more
valuable report, or one full of more interest or infor-
mation was never before produced); and they thought that
some such plan as he suggested would be desirable.
The Hon. Member stated, that if the Noble Lord and the
Right Hon. Baronet would take the management of the Com-
mittee, it would be doubly gratifying to him.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL did not see any objection to the
appointment of a Committee for the purpose alluded to by the
Hon. Member.

Sir R. PEEL thought it would have been better if the
Hon. Member had shaped his motion in more general terms.
Mr. AGLIONBY had no objection to comply with the
suggestion of the Right. Hon. Baronet. He would therefore
withdraw his motion for the present, and submit it again before
the rising of the House.
FEES OF THE COURTS OF LAW.

Mr. Sergeant G 0 UL BURN, in moving for leave to
bring in a Bill for carrying into effect the recommendations of
the Commissioners under the Act (Ist William IV., chap. 58),
for regulating the fees and emoluments of the Superior Courts
of Common Law, would postpone all discussion upon the de-
tails of the measure until the second reading..... Leave was
then given to bring in the Bill.
London, England, 1836-06-10

CONFERENCE WITH THE LORDS.

The Masters in Chancery appeared on the part of the
Lords, to request a conference with the House of Commons,
on the subject of the resolutions of February last, in reference
to the printing and promulgation of the statutes ; also upon
the propriety of having the Bills engrossed in plain hand in-
stead of black letter.

Mr. PRYME, and other Members, were appointed, and after
an absence of about a quarter of an hour, the Deputation ap-
peared at the bar, when
Mr. PRYME announced that the conference on the part
of their Lordships was conducted by the Lord President of
the Council. The Hon. Member then proceeded to read
the reasons assigned by their Lordships for agreeing to and
dissenting from the resolution which commenced by the
usual preamble that " their Lordships, always desirous
to keep up a good correspondence with the House of
interrupted
by The Honourable Member was here
by a cheer from Mr. O'Connell, which was followed
by laughter and cheers from the Ministerial side of
the House. The Honourable Member then proceeded
to state that their Lordships had agreed to rescind the
first resolution in conformity with the recommendation of
the Committee, but that they did not concur in the Resolu-
tion which adopted a uniformity of size, because their Lord-
ships were of opinion that there should be two
editions of the statutes for promulgation. Their Lordships
concurred in the resolution that the copies of Acts which
were deposited iu public offices and courts should be
stamped, in order to their better preservation. Their Lord-
' ships could not concur in the resolution for departing from the
present mode of engrossing Bills in black letter ; they had
no objection that the names of persons and places might be
written in plain hand.—(A laugh.)

LAW OF COPYRIGHT.
Mr. BUCKINGHAM moved for leave to bring in a Bill
to extend the Copyright Laws of England to Ireland.
After an observation from Sir R. INGLIS, which was in-
audible in the gallery,
Mr. BUCKINGHAM said, that in the city of Dublin the
Copyright Act was constantly invaded, and the publishers of
this country suffered.
Sir R. INGLIS did not see why the discussion should take
place now.
Mr. O'CONNELL said that the objection, if any,
to come from Ireland. They did not want to do injustice to
the English at all, and therefore they did not make any ob-
jection. ought
Sir R. INGLIS hoped that the discussion would be post-
poned till Monday.
Mr. BUCKINGHAM did not see why he should not move
for leave to introduce the Bill now. Daily injury was
arising from the present state of the law.
After a few words from Lord J. RUSSELL, which were
totally inaudible in the Gallery,
Mr. BUCKINGHAM said that if the Noble Lord expressed
a wish that he should withdraw his motion, he would do
so.—(Loud cries of " No," and " Move.") He saw no rea-
son for delay.—( Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member concluded
by moving for leave to bring in the Bill.
Sir R. INGLIS said he would divide the House upon the
question, if the Hoe. Member fer Sheffield persisted in his
motion.

ERRATUM.

In our first leading article yesterday, the words " tyrannical pre-
tensions" were, by mistake of the printer, converted into
" tyrannical pretences." We are quite aware that the latter
word is applicable in all its force to the conduct of our hereditary
legislators, but it is not the one we used.
