BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner EVANS.)
IN RE BRADSHAW.
This insolvent, who had carried on business as a
warehouseman in Basinghall-street, came up for his
final order.
Mr. STURGEON opposed on several grounds, and
asked the insolvent if he had nut been twice bank-
rupt, and whether he had on the last occasion paid
15s. in the pound.
The insolvent said he had been twice bankrupt;
the first time he was in partnership, the second he
had not paid 15s. in the pound, but a composition of
145., which had been offered and refused.
Mr. STURGEON submitted that the non-payment of
a dividend of 15s. under the second bankruptcy
precluded the bankrupt receiving protection as an
Insolvent.

His HONOUR held that such was the case, and the
petition was dismissed.

GUILDHALL.—(THIS DAY.)
Sergeant White, previous to the other business of
the Court, informed the Court that he had attended to
the instructions he had received on Friday last, and
had made the necessary inquiries relative to the
disease in sheep which had been observed in Smith-
field. He had reported the appearances and details
.of the disease, which had received the name of " small
Lox," to the authorities of the Veterinary College.
I:.he attention of these gentlemen had already been
directed to it, and they had made experiments, which
were again repeated. In order to ascertain whether the
dis.ease was contagious they had a healthy South
down sheep put in the same place with some of those
that Were infected. The complaint was thereby corn-
raunieated to the sound sheep, which died in nine
days. They also found that the disease could be
communicated by innoculation.
Mr. Alderman MusGuorE, in consequence of this
report from the Veterinary College, ordered White
positively to prohibit the entrance of any of the in-
fected sheep into the market; and in case of any
heing found there contrary to these orders, to have themimmediately driven away and killed.

THAMES.—(THIS DAY.)
At the opening of the court this morning, Mr.
John Stolle, an extensive vinegar manufacturer,
carrying on business at Christian•street, St. George-
-19-the-East, made an application to the sitting ma-
gistrate, Mr. Yardley, under the following circum-
btances

It appeared that a short time since a German,
named August Hartmann, obtained from the appli-
cant, as he alleged, by false pretences, goods amount-
ing to the sum of 3001., with which he absconded.
The applicant offered a reward of 201. for his appre-
hension. He had had reason to suppose that the man
VMS in Liverpool endeavouring to procure a passage
to America. Applicant went there, but the superin-
tendent of the Liverpool police (Mr. Dowling) re-
fused to undertake the responsibility of arresting him
without a warrant from the magistrate of the district
in which the offence was committed, and also required
that the signature of such magistrate should be sworn
to. I have since, continued Mr. Stolle, traced him
14 Portsmouth, and fearful of encountering the same
difficulties, I applied to your Worship yesterday
morning for a warrant, which you refused, and re-
ferred me to the police. I have been to the Commis-
sioners at Scotland-yard, and they tell me I ought to
have your warrant ; so what am I to do.
Mr. YARDLEY—I do not derive my judgment from
Scotland-yard. I tell you my warrant would be
perfectly useless. If the case is as strong as you
represent it, give him into the custody of the police
wherever you find him.
Mr. Stolle—But the police will not take him with-
out your warrant, which if I had, a policeman could
go down with me and apprehend him. The Commis-
sioners tell me so.
Mr. YARDLEY—I tell you once more I differ from
the Commissioners. My warrant is useless ; and if
you cannot understand me, or will not understand me,
at any rate you will understand I will not grant you
a warrant.
The applicant retired in great dudgeon, expressing
his opinion of the great difficulty of any plain man
of common and not legal sense understanding how to
proceed, where there were such very conflicting and
contradictory opinions.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

The Romantic Widow was revived here last even-
ing for the re-appearance of Mr. Ranger, who ap-
peared in his original character of the Marquis. It
is some years since Mr. Ranger appeared in London,
but time has dealt gently with him, and he appears
as young and as vivacious as ever. His performance
last night was admirable, and he is far and away the
best representative of the French gentleman on the
stage.
