EVENING, EDITION!

bibition in the Court of Quarter Session, in his (the Learned
Judge's) opinion, be had a right to make an amendment,
but that should be no matter of complaint to them. The
next objection was that the jurat was bad, inasmuch as it
s'.ated teat the witnesttes were severally sworn in Court,
instead of a jurat being appended to each of the affidavits.
This, it was contended,was not a sufficient proof of each and
evo7y of the parties having been sworn, and that it was net
sufficient to support an indictment for perjury. He had
referred to the practice on this subject, and he did not
think the objection was sufficient to maketho articles of the
peace altogether illegal. Then came the more importart
question, which bad been ably commented upon by Ma,
Dunn, namely, whether the facts stated in the articles
were sufficient to conduce to the - conckision that there
was ground for supposing that the defendant would da
Miss Coutts bodily harm. Looking at all the cirettn-
stances set forth, he thought there was abundant ground
for entertaining such a suppositien, and he was of opinion
that any lady, circumstanced as Miss Coutts had been,
could not have acted with more propriety and caution than
she had done, and it was his duty to say that Mr. DURP
was remanded.
Mr. Dunn said all his friends were in the country, and
if he were sent back to' prison for two
yeoi-s his pitspects
would be ruined. He could not find sureties, but he could
enter into his own recognizance to any amount, and pledge
his word of honour that he would not further purstur Miss
Coutts.
Mr. Justice BOSANQUET said he had no power to alter
the order of the Court of Quarter 'Session.
Mr. Bodkin observed that the defendant had voluntarily
embarked ;n this contention, and he should have considered
this point before, instead of continuing his base conducteven that very day before his Lordship.
Mr. Dunn said he supposed 'he must rot in gaol, and he
might as well cut his throattimmediately he returned..
lie was then removed in the custody of Mr. Kilsby and
the turnkeys of the New Prison.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

LOAN SOCIETIES.—John 'Taylor Bryson, a baker,
late of Bell-alley, London-wall, wire qn Tuesday heard
on his petition. He was supprted by Mr. Cooke;
with whom was Mr. Woodroffe.
Tne insolvent had been discharged under the Act,
and a bankrupt in 1837, for the same debts, and he had
now about fifty creditors in the schedule.
Mr. Commissioner Law supposed he hag, got money
from loan societies to set him up in business, and he
went over the schedule, repeating the names of about a
dozen "loan societies," which occasbncd some laughter
in Court. _ .

The insolvent said two of his sureties had become in-
solvent, and one of his detaining creditors was an attorney
of the Court, to ►whom he had given an undertaking to
pay the costs of the case. Independently of the nurner
ous loan societies, there were a number of millers, and
he had, besides, given an accommodation bill for a friend.
Mr. Commissioner Lew told him if the Legislature
had not knocked out of the present Act of Parliament a
good deal of common sense that was in the former, he
should not be in a situation to how- him
years, without the consent of his creditors. " And,"
added the Learned Commissioner, " if millers and flour-
factors have, after this, any more to do with you it will
he their own fault."
The COURT remanded him for three months from the
vesting order, under the discretionary clause.

wESTMINS iER COURT OF RE.

QUESTS.

CANDLEWICK WARD V. LITTLE BRITAIN.—In this
important case the plaintiff sought to recover 7s. for a
couple of tickets for a steam-boat excursion to the Nore.
The plaintiff having stated his case, the defendant
called upon him to prove the delivery of the tickets.
.• I took the tickets to Little Britain,'" said a per-
son in the body of the Court.
•" That is where the defendant resides, I presume ?"
said a Commissioner.

"4 Oh! no, that's the name he's known by among his
shopmates," observed the plaintiff._

" Little Britain" was a stout fellow, about six feet

twn

COMMISSIONER—You see Mr. Britton that the deli-
very of the tickets can be proved.
" Little Britaio"—But I never made use of the tickets.
Never went aboard of the steamer at all.
COMMISSIONER—Never went on board ! •
" No, ask • Candlewick Ward' if I did," said " Little
Britain."

COMMISSIONER (!auzhing)—Little Britain Candle-
wick Ward ! Why, what does Candlewick Ward know
of the transaction i"

It turned out that the plaintiff Ward " did file cot-
tons" for tallow-chandlers, and that his neighbours lrad
prefixed the civic derision of Cantilewiet to his natair.
The Court ruled that as there was an absolute sale
of the tickets, " Candlewick Ward" was entitled to a
verdict against " Little Britain:'
