SPANISH BONDHOLDERS'
ASSOCIATION.
A meeting of the Spanish Bondholders was yester-
day held at the London 'Tavern, Bishop gate-street,
for the purpose cf considering the presen position of
their affairs, and what measures it was expedient to
adopt. The chair was taken at one o'clock by Demp-
ster Hemming, Esq.
The CHAIRMAN said, that since he had last had the
honour of addressing the meeting, although they had
not arrived at the goal which they sought to obtain,
still they were not in a worse position than they
were before. They had to deal with a perfectly
solvent nation, and another great cause of thank-
fulness was that the debts contracted by the
Spanish nation had never been repudiated or
disowned ; they had been upon many occasions ac-
knowledged by that nation in its interviews with this
country. The bondholders of this country were
lately told by one of the Spanish Ministers (Senor
Mon), through Lord Aberdeen, that Spain would
honourably fulfil its engagements. It was to be re-
gretted that the Spanish nation were proverbially
slow in their conduct, and their constant maxim was
" to-morrow, to-morrow." Owing to events which
had taken place in the country while Senor Mon was
in power, he was led to believe that it was owing
entirely to the pressure of other business that Senor
Mon had not fulfilled the promises which he had
previously made.—(Cries of " No, no.") He dif-
fered with the Hon. Gentleman who said no ; he
thought that if the promises made by that nobleman
could have been carried out they would have been
carried out. With respect to Senor Salamanca it
was quite evident that he could do nothing, for he
held office upon a mere tenure. A firm Government
was now established in Spain, and he hoped that
under that Government some active measures would
be taken for the re-payment of the just debts due to
the Spanish bondholders.—(Hear.) Lord Palmerston
stated in the House of Commons, last session, that
there were bounds beyond which the patience
of the British Government could not be extended to
those nations who refused to act honestly towards its
subjects. Under these circumstances he thought that
the course for the meeting to adopt would be to
agree that a deputation of the bondholders should
wait upon Lord Palmerston with a view to elicit
from him his views upon the course which he thought
it advisable for them to:adopt.—(Hear,hear.) He did
not consider that any good would result from the
indulgence of violent language in characterizing the
conduct of the Spanish Government towards its
unfortunate creditors. There was no doubt a
considerable degree of irritation upon the subject,
but he trusted that upon the present occasion the use
of all violent language would be avoided.
Mr. STOKES (the secretary) then read a letter,
addressed by the London Committee of the Spanish
Bondholders to Sir H. L. Bulwer (the English Am-
bassador at Madrid), during the time that Senor
Salamanca was placed at the head of affairs in that
country. When the letter, however, arrived in Spain,
Senor Salamanca had been dismissed from his post,
and the present Ministry under Narvaez had, been
formed. The letter contained the basis of the terms
which the bondholders were willing to offer as a
settlement of their debt. The terms were—first,
an equivalent amount of stock, bearing a reduced
rate of interest for the principal and overdue interest
of the Five per Cent. Bonds, with proportionate al-
lowance for the Deferred and Passive Debt due to
the Spanish bondholders of this country. Secondly,
security against all secret or illicit issue of new stock
in future in Spain under any pretence or denomina-
tion whatever. Thirdly, that any new arrangement
with the public creditors of Spain should be made the
subject matter of a convention between the Govern-
ments of Spain and England.
Dr. KEYZER, advocate, of Amsterdam, in an able
and eloquent speech, denounced the con
duct of the Spanish Government in withhold-
ing the payment of their debts, and con-
cluded by moving the following resolution :
" That this meeting cannot but lament that no steps
have yet been taken by the Spanish Government to
liquidate the long pending claims of the foreign
bondholders, and whilst thus expressing their regret,
they feel that they shall not do justice to the claims
of the bondholders unless they represent to the
Spanish Government how many years the bondholders
have suffered the deprivation of all interest on their
capital, which in many instances has fallen most
severely on the widow and orphan. That this
meeting cannot refrain from observing that during
the few past years the revenues of Spain have nearly
doubled in amount, and that, notwithstanding its
improvement, the only payment yet made to the
foreign bondholders on account of their in-
terest is the small amount of dividends on
the Three per Cents., arising from the capi-
talization of overdue Five per Cent. coupons in
1840. 'That this meeting, aware of the ability of the
Spanish Government, in the improved state of its
revenues, to provide for the interest of the foreign as
well as domestic debt, trusts that a sense of
justice will at length induce them to perform this
imperative duty, and that one of the first steps of the
Cortes, at its present session, will be to provide funds
for the settlement of the claims of its foreign bond-
holders."
Mr. TASKER seconded the resolution.
Mr. Caren supported the resolution ; and in doing
so stated that the revenue of Spain would amount
for the present year to nearly 14,000,0001., and it was
therefore imperative upon that country, under such
improved circumstances, to provide for the payment
of its just debts to the foreign bondholder.
Mr. Manost moved, as an amendment, " That this
meeting is fully convinced, after a mature examina-
tion of facts, that the several Administrations of Spain
during the last twelve years (with the exception of
those in the interval of Espartero's regency), have
each and all been guilty of a deliberate, gra-
tuitous, and systematic violation of their engage-
ments with the British bondholders ; that in every
pecuniary transaction with this body, the Adminis-
trations have proved themselves as regardless of ap-
pearances as of truth and rectitude, and as little
capable of placing a just value upon the patience and
forbearance of the British creditors as of appreciating
what was due to the dignity of the ancient and once
powerful people over whom they were appointed to rule.
That the conduct of Senor Mon, whilst Finance
Minister of Spain, is deserving of the special repre-
hension of this meeting, inasmuch as although he
raised upon the Spanish people a larger sum in an-
nual contributions than they had ever before paid,
amounting to upwards of twelve millions sterling,
and although he declared in public Cortex that there
was a considerable surplus applicable to the part
liquidation of the foreign debt, yet he never applied
one shilling of these twelve millions, nor of that sup-
' posed surplus tr the payment of the same ; but, on
the contrary, he added very largely to the permanent
engagements of his country, by consolidating into a
Three per ent.Stocic the enormous demands of domestic
contractors and money lenders, to the prejudice of the
preexisting claims of the bondholders. That the :said
Minister, in refusing or neglecting, during the four
years he was in office, to make use of the power to
settle the debt which he had demanded and procured
from the Cortes, was guilty of putting a delusion
upon the bondholders—a course of conduct which
this meeting could not be induced to impute even to
a Spanish statesman, were it not for the evidence
afforded by the last act of the expiring Cabinet,
of which Senor Mon was the most important
member, whereby the power above mentioned was
annulled, and their successors were forbidden to do
that which Senor Mon had professed such an anxious
wish to perform."
A series of other resolutions, equally strong and
condemnatory of the Spaeiish Government, were pro-
posed as amendments. It was, however, finally
agreed, that although the conduct of the Spanish
Government demands the fullest reprobation con-
tained in the amendments, still it was not expedient
to allow the original resolution to be overruled.
The original resolution was then unanimously
agreed to.
Mr. JOHNSON moved the second resolution, em-
powering the committee to appoint a delegate to pro-
ceed to Spain, in order to obtain a settlement of the
claims of the British creditors.
Mr. DUMERGUE seconded the resolution, which
was also unanimously agreed to.
A resolution, authorising the committee to appoint
a deputation to wait upon Lord Palmerston was
unanimously agreed to ; as was also a resolution
calling upon the bondholders to subscribe towards
the expenses which must necessarily be incurred in
carrying out the objects of the association.
Mr. WERTHEIM moved, and Mr. CHARD seconded,
a resolution to the effect—" That the public press be
respectfully solicited to continue its valuable advocacy
on behalf of the Spanish Bondholders."
resolution was also unanimously agreed to.
This thanks of the meeting were voted to the chair-
man, and the meeting broke up.

of a friend for six weeks, but had not been able to
get change for it in town. The note was accordingly
presented by this man at Barclay's, when, a Bank of
England note was given in exchange for it. The
prisoner, on receiving the latter, changed it at a
public-house, and lent his acquaintance half a-sove-
reign out of it, stating that he should have to pay it
all back within six weeks. Meanwhile, complaints
having been made at the General Post-office respect-
ing the miscarriage of the country note, which had
been sent by a Mr. Burly,:of Wisbeach, to a Mr.
Cragg, watchmaker, in Northampton. square, an in-
quiry was instituted, and the above information
elicited from the grocer's assistant who changed the
note for the prisoner.
Peake, the constable attached to the Post-office,
proved that the prisoner, on being first charged with
the offence, denied all knowledge of the letter, the
note, or the man to whom he had given it ; but, on
being confronted with the latter, he said he should
"decline saying anything then."
Other evidence being necessary to complete the case,
Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoner for further
examination.

This was a motion by one of the defendants in this
case to stay further proceedings in equity until the
judgment of the Court of Queen's Bench had been
delivered as to the crime of the plaintiff, who had
been indicted at the Central Criminal Court for per-
jury, but whose case had been removed by writ of
certiorari to the Queen's Bench for trial.
His HONOUR' at the conclusion of the arguments,
said that he did not think there was any precedent for
the present application, and there had been offered
no proof of the alleged criminality of the plaintiff.
Ile must therefore refuse the application.

The motion was then dismissed with costs.

BAIL COURT, Nov. 19.

THE NEW COUNTY COURTS-IMPORTANT APPLICATION.

Mr. CIIARNOCK moved for a rule, calling upon the
Judge of the Chelmsford County Court, to show cause
why a writ of prohibition should not issue against him,
to stop all further proceedings in the case of Ackworth
and Hughes v. Dawsett. He stated that the plaintiffs
were linendrapers, carrying on business at Chelms-
ford, and that the defendant was a farmer, of humble
circumstances. In the year 1843 his wife contracted
a debt with the plaintiffs, amounting to upwards
of fifty pounds, which sum had been reduced by
various payments to 26/. The defendant became em-
barrassed, and offered his creditors 10s. in the pound,
which they refused. He heard nothing of the claim
until July last, when the plaintiffs served him with
two bills, making up the sum claimed, and subse-
quently he was served at their instance with two sum-
monses to the County Court. The defendant remon-
strated with him, and urged the illegality of the pro-
ceeding, but they persevered in their suit. He did
not appear, as he thought it would be more advisable
to bring the matter before this Court.
Mr. Justice PATTESON inquired if the two separate
sums were charged for separate bills of parcels, or
whether the entire sum had been simply divided to
bring each within the jurisdiction of these Courts ?
Mr. CHARNOCK said two plaints were issued for
one sum charged in a single bill of parcels. Both
were taken out on the same day, and as the defendant
did notlattend, a writ of fi. fa. had been issued,and a dis-
traint had been levied in consequence on goods which
were supposed to be his, but they belonged to his son.
The defendant, who had no effects, resided now at
Waltham.

Mr. Justice PATTESON said he considered the de-
fendant entitled to a rule.

Mr. CHARNOCK—The fact, my Lord, is, these County
Courts, in the way their decisions have been given,
will supersede the necessity of holding courts at
Westminster Hall, because it will be more profitable
to attorneys to carry their suits there. The decision
of Mr. Palmer, at Bristol, has led to the institution
of 3,000 writs against railway contractors, the costs
of which might be calculated at about .54,000/.,
and no doubt the precedents thus created had led to
the suit in question.
Mr. Justice PATTBSON said the question raised
was a most important one—too important for the de-
cision of one judge. The defendant might have his
rule, but the case must be argued before the full
Court.

CONSISTORY COURT, Nov. 19.
BURROWES AGAINST BURROWES.

This was a suit for a divorce, by reason of cruelty
and adultery, by the wife against the husband. The
charge of cruelty was, however, abandoned. The
parties were married on the 19th of May, 1842, and
cohabited until the 17th of February, 1847.
Dr. BAYFORD, on behalf of the husband, admitted
that there being a confession of adultery by the
husband (which was otherwise very slightly proved),
he could not oppose the sentence ; but he regretted
that the case should have been brought before the
Court, and that the wife's brothers should have pur-
sued the course they did instead of using their endea-
vours to promote the reunion of the parties. The
marriage, which had been clandestine, was against
the wishes of the family, and the wife's eldest brother
admitted that previous to the marriage he had written
to the husband, that if he came to the house he would
be kicked out of it. But for the spirit shown by
the wife's family the Court would not have heard of
the case.

Dr. ADDAMS (with whom was Dr. Twiss), for the
wife, observed, that without the confession of the
husband there was the fullest proof of his adultery ;
and with regard to the conduct of the wife's family,
here was a husband seducing a girl of tender years
(fourteen or fifteen), carrying on a lewd intercourse
with her in his own house and under the eyes of his
wife, and meeting this girl at a brothel ; conduct
which fully justified the course pursued by the
brothers. And what was the sequel? An arrange-
ment was about to be made between the parties, and,
at the moment when the wife was about to condone
his past offence, the husband had admitted that he
had gone down by the railroad, and been guilty of
adultery with this young girl. No wonder that the
wife's brothers should advise her to separate herself
from such a husband.

Dr. LUSHINGTON said, he had no doubt, and it was
not denied, that the evidence fully established the
charge of adultery against Mr. Burrowes. There
was proof of familiarities between him and a young
girl, a servant in his own house, followed up by
proof of this girl's going to a common brothel,
where she was met by Mr. Burrowes, who remained
with her there a considerable time—a circumstance
of itself, unless explained, sufficient to establish adul-
tery. The Court, therefore, had no other duty than
to sign the sentence, for he was not entitled to take
into his consideration the motives of the wife, or
those by which her family might be influenced in
any advice they might have given to her. He had
nothing more to do, after proof of adultery, than to
see whether there was any legal bar to a sentence,
and none having been stated he was bound to sign
the sentence of divorce.
