THE TRACEY PEERAGE.

The examination of witnesses on behalf of the claim-
ant to this peerage was resumed to-day, and occupied
their Lordships the whole morning.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings at Nisi Prius at Westminster, before Mr. Jus-
tice WIGRTMAN and Common Juries.)
LIBEL.—HOUGHTON V. SILVERLOCK.
Mr. Huinfrey, Queen's Counsel, and Mr. Charnock,
appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Sergeant Talfourd
for the defendant.

Mr. IIUNFREY stated the case to the jury. Ile said
this was an action brought by Captain Houghton, a half-
pay navy officer, to recover compensation in ,damagesfrom Mr. Silverlock, proprietor of the Nautical Standard
and Steam Navigation Gazette, for the publication of an
anonymous letter signed " Camperdown," which made
serious and utterly unfounded charges against him. It
was right that be should state that the plaintiff would
rather have brought his action against the author of the
document, but as the defendant refused to give his name
up, he had no other alternative than to bring it against
the defendant, whom he admitted to be a respectable
gentleman. Captain Houghton had been upwards of
forty years in the navy—he was a subscriber to a so-
ciety- called the Royal Naval Charity, a society of
the most exemplary and excellent kind a
society to which all naval officers, from the admiral
down, he believed, to the lowest officer, subscribed. It
had been established for the purpose of affording assist-
ance to the widows and orphans of naval officers, and
even to naval officers, in the hour of need ; it could not,
therefore, be called a charity, but a mutual assurance
(3ciety, as it was supported by mutual subscriptions,
the officers paying a certain sum, according to their
rank—some paying 55., and those in the higher ranks a
larger sum. lie might also mention that some of the
highest officers of the navy had not felt themselves de-
meaned by seeking aid from its funds. A Miss Hoare,
the daughter of a distinguished naval officer, and a lady
of highly exemplary character, sought aid from the
funds of this society, and her case was supported by Sir
Sir Edward Codrington, Earl Cadogan, and particularly
by the plaintiff. In the majority of eases of this kind
there were generally rivals, who sought, for the
purpose of promoting their own aggrandisement,
to depreciate the merits of their opponents ; and
much on such occasions was written which the
authors subsequently regretted having penned. (The
Learned Counsel then read the alleged libel, which
extended to great length. It simply impugned the mo-
tives of Captain Houghton in advocating the cause of
Miss Hoare ; charged him with having subscribed to
the society but "five annual shillings;" of having re-
ceived charity from it in the season of adversity, and
called it " no bad speculation," as he had received pounds
for every shilling he had subscribed, and expressed stir-
prise that the managers of the institution should allow a
person who had been a recipient of its funds to sit by
their sides and vote away its money ; and, further, that
a petition which he had presented with respect to Miss
Hoare had been refused. It was dated the 23d of
August last year, and was headed "The Royal Naval
Charity and Commander Houghton," and was signed
" Camperdown.") Now the plaintiff had sought the
name of the writer—he had said, " Give me the name
of the writer, justify; the charges, or make an
apology ;" but when his application had beet;
refused, he considered it due to his character,
due to 1- is friends and to his messmates, to
institute these proceedings. It appeared that Miss
Hoare had during the last four or Live years been an
applicant to the society, but that she had up to the time
the letter was published been unsuccessful. The sub-
scriptions were arranged on a graduated scale according
to the rank of the officers, in order to prevent any invi-
dious distinctions. It was true that the plaintiff had re-
ceived aid from the funds, but it was under the following
circumstances :—Upwards of 20 years ago he lent his
yacht to a friend, who steered to a foreign port, where
he took on board a quantity of smuggled cigars, but it
was captured by a revenue cutter and condemeed, and a
sum of 201. was voted by the society to the plaintiff for
the purpose of redeeming it, but no imputation could rest
upon him in this respect--in fact, his promotion, and
his long standing and unblemished character, were
a sufficient answer that no imputation rested upon him.
It was most discreditable for the editors of newspapers
to publish anonymous charges of this kind, and to re-
fuse to give the names of the writers; it was equally dis-
creditable to publish charges which he was not in a po-
sition to justify.
The Learned Counsel having proved the publication
of the paper, and that the defendant was its registered
proprietor, called
Captain Redford, RN., who stated that he had been
fifty years in the navy, that he was an old subscriber to
the institution, that he had met the plaintiff at its
meetings, and that he was an active member of it. He
was not acquainted with him privately.
Mr. Eardley Hathray, clerk to Mr. Chard, the naval
agent, proved that his employer had paid the plaintiff's
subscription to the society for some years; it was now
los. 6d.

This was the plaintiff's case.
Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD then addressed the jury
on behalf of the defendant. He said no evidence
had been adduced to show that any application had been
made to the defendant to deliver up the name of the
writer of the letter, or that he had refused to justify
the charges it contained, or to apologise if they were
devoid of truth. It appeared that the lady, notwith-
standing she had the support of Lord Cadogan, Sir
Edward Codrington, and the plaintiff, had been unsuc-
cessful from year to year ; and as the plaintiff took part
in a disputed question, he must expect to be prepared to
bear criticism ; but the letter complained of was simply
a reply to a letter which had appeared in the paper
from Captain Houghton, referring to the case of Miss
Hoare : he had invited notice to himself as the supporter
of the claims of that lady, and ought not to Piave been
too thin-skinned, when his motives were canvassed.
He had styled himself as one of the oldest and most
benevolent of the subscribers, and from what
had occurred it seemed that he was not so
much entitled to such a reputation as he
himself seemed to believe. Surely there could be no-
thing very wrong in stating that he had! received aid
from a fund n hich he had himself assisted to create ;
and it was true that he had received far more from
that fund than he had contributed to it. Then, no
doubt, the writer of the letter had seen a list in which
the name of the plaintiff appeared as a subscriber of 55.,
for at a former period he had subscribed that sum. Why,
if every publication of this kind were to justify an action,
an action might be brought for libel against the printer
of every placard or squib published at the ensuing
general election. He did not justify an editor with-
holding the name of the writer of a libelous article,
but if ho refused to do so, or was unable to do so, he
was the person who should be held liable, and therefore
he did notcornplain that he had been proceeded against as
the responsible manager of the paper. The letter, how-
ever, did not appear to have been written by a person
of education, as it contained grammatical mistakes—the
word " adverse" being used for " obverse," for instance
—showing that the editor had not given it that attention
which it demanded, and that it was inserted inadver-
tently.
Mr. Justice WIGHTHAN having summed up and ex- ,

plained the llw to the jury, they, after a few minutes'
consideration, found a verdict for the defendant.

BANKRUPTCY.-(T HIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner HoutoyD.)

DEEDS OF COMPOSITION AND BANKRUPTCY.-IN RE CLA-

RIDGE.

This bankrupt, who hadcarried on business as a wine
merchant in Southampton-row, came up for his certifi-
cate.

Mr. LAWRANFE, who appeared on behalf of the bank-
rupt, said that although the debts appeared in the sche-
dule to be very heavy, yet, as regarded 6,9001., they
could hardly be deemed debts. In 1844, Mr. Claridge,
finding himself to be in difficulties, made an assignment
of all his property to trustees for the benefit of his cre-
ditors, and under that deed the }mines was dis-
posed of, and the estate paid 13s. in the pound, but
as Mr. Claridge had not got a release from
his creditors it had been deemed advisable that the dif-
ference between the 13s. and the 20s. in the pound
should be put to the bankrupt's debt. It was clear that
the creditors were at that time satisfied with the back-
rupt's conduct, and not one of those creditors or as-
signees appeared to oppose. He (Mr. Lawrance), there-
fore, had with confidence to submit that this was a case
in which his Honour would feel it just to allow the
certificate.

his lloNoua said that, although thers was no opposi-
tion, there was matter on the face of the balance-sheet
which precluded him from granting the certificate in-
stanter—the bankrupt's expenses had been treble the
amount of his means.

Mr. LAwueNcE said that, unfortunately for the bank-
rupt, he had entered into the assignment. Under a
bankruptcy it would have bees different. The expenses,
certainly, were high, but not higher than the bankrupt
thought justifiable, for he bad joined a Mr. Day ; but
as it was a matter of doubt how far the old debts might
be brought against him, it was deemed advisable that
he should only appear in the capacity of clerk, although,
at the same time, he was, in fact, to receive his share of
the profits, which he might reasonably anticipate to have
been 1,0001. a year ; but circumstances overturned his
hopes.
A tradesman opposed for a small debt of 61. ;
and another, who was a creditor for 350/. under
the same circumstances, said he sympathised with the
bankrupt, who, he thought, had been painfully deceived
in his expectations.
His HONOUR said that, notwithstanding what had
been urged in favour of the bankrupt, he could not grant
the certificate immediately, and must suspend it for six
months.

Mr. LAWRA.NCE—Under the circumstances, there
being no opposition, your Honour will grant protection?
His HONOUR—For a month, with liberty to apply
again.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.

OLD COURT.
(Before the RECOADER,)
CUTTING AND WOUNDING.--James Loftus Brock, aged 57,
a lieutenant on half-pay, was placed at the bar, charged with
feloniously cutting and wounding Ann his wife, with intent
to do her some grievous bodily harm.
The principal witnesses against the prisoner were his wife
and two sons, by whom the offence was fully proved.
The prisoner, who displayed considerable acumen through-
out the examination of the witnesses, at the conclusion of
the evidence, made an incoherent statement, and spoke a
great deal concerning St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans.
The RECORDER summed up, and
The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty, on the ground
of insanity.
The prisoner was ordered to be confined during her Ma-
jesty's pleasure.

MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
Richard Benningham, a diminutivive urchin about
twelve years of age, was placed at the bar charged with
stealing seven pounds of flour, the property of the go
vernors and directors of the poor of the parish of St.
George's, Hanover-square.
William Sullivan, task-master at St. George's Work-
kouse, stated that the prisoner was an inmate of the
workhouse. On Saturday last he received information
that some flour had been stolen from the bakehouse, and
that the prisoner and another boy, who has since ab-
sconded, had been seen with a bag of flour in their pos-
session. An inquiry was instituted, which led to the
flour being discovered concealed in the coal-box, in the
tailors' shop. The prisoner was then given into custody.
James Filby, a pauper employed in the tailors' shop,
proved finding the bag of flour produced, concealed in
the coal-box amongst the coals.
William Mills and John Rust, inmates of the work-
house, proved seeiog the prisoner coming from the bake-
house with the flour in his possession, they followed him
to the tailors' shop, and saw him conceal it in the coal-
box.

The prisoner denied taking the flour, the other boy
took it, and gave it to him to hide away.
Mr. BINGHAM committed him to the House of Cor-
rection for one month, with hard labour.

Benjamin pebble was charged with assaulting Mr,
Thomas Medhurst, 1, Denmark-street, Soho. _

It appeared that on the previous night the complainant
was walking up the Quadrant, when the defendant
rushed from behind one of the pillars, and, without the
least provocation, struck him a violent blow on his
chest. The defendant was proceeding to further acts of
violence, when a constable arrived and put a step to his
pranks by taking him into custody.
Police-constable Mould 123, said he was on duty in
the Quadrant on the preceding night, when his atten-
tion was called to the defendant, who was annoying
every person that passed. Witness watched him, and
seeing him strike the complainant, took him into
custody.

A fiiend of defendant's informed the magistrate tha
the defendant was not right in his mind, and had late])
been discharged from St. Luke's Hospital.
Mr. BINGHAM said the defendant must find two sure,
tie► to keep the peace for three months.

TIIAMES.—(THIS DAY.)
William Balls, a cab driver, and Margaret Balls, were
charged with having attempted a felony and with
assaulting the police in the execution of their duty.
Police•constable 11 199,• stated that last night he was
on duty at Cannon-street-road, St. George-in-the-East,
and as he was passing the Red Lion Tavern, he was in-
formed by a Mr. Jervis, a respectable cheesemonger, re
siding in the Commercial-road, that the two prisoners
whom he pointed out had attempted to pick the pockets
of an old man who was drunk standing outside the
tavern. Witness went up and told them to go away
and lease the old man alone. They declared they
would not let him go, and when he endeavoured to sepa-
rate them from the old man, they attacked and kicked
him severely, but another constable coming up they
were ultimately conveyed to the station-house.
This evidence was corroborated by H 18, who as-
sisted in taking them into custody. Ile added that Mr.
Jervis was not present.
Mr. BALLANTINE said he should remand the case till
Thursday next, and directed the officers to take two
summonses to require the attendance of Mr. Jervis and
the old man. He inquired if the prisoners were known?
Roach (the gaoler) said the woman had been at this
court before, charged with having attempted to stab the
man ; and the man had also been in custody charged
with biting off a sailor's ear.—The prisoners were then
locked up.
Margaret Mahony, who was charged on suspicion of
having robbed Mr. Enfield, landlord of the City of Car-
lisle public-house, Rosemary-lane, of 35 sovereigns and
some silver, the particulars of which have already ap-
peared in The Sun, was again brought up for exami
nation. _ _

The only additional evidence was the fact that the
prisoner had been seen with a purse similar to the ono of
which Mr. Enfield had been robbed.

She was again remanded for a week.

THE GRAND REVIEW IN HTDE-PARY.—To-mor-
row morning a review will take place in llyde-park, which

the Duke of Cambridge and Prince George, their Serene
Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Saxe Weimar with
Prince Edward and their respective suites, his Grace the
Duke of Wellington, and a very numerous and brilliant staff

pected to arrive in the neighbourhood of the metropolis in
the course of this day, it being intended that the review
shall exceed in splendour any that have taken place for
several years.
CANTERBURY.—During the past week, the wind
having been E. and N.E., has prevented the hops from show-
ing so good an appearance as they did a week back. We
hear of honey-dew, &c., having visited them, but the planter
is anxiously looking forward for genial weather, when the
plant no doubt, will resume its healthy colour.
BOSTON, STAMFORD, AND BIRMINGMAM
RAIL-
WAY.—At a special meeting of the shareholders in this com-
pany held at 18, Abingdon-street yesterday, Mr. T. Ma-
caulay in the chair, the following Bills were submitted and
approved, viz. :—To make a railway from Peterborough to
the Stamford and Wisbech branch at Thorney ; a railway
from Wisbech to Wisbech-harbour, and to construct works
in the harbour ; a branch from Wisbech to Sutton-bridge,
and another to Sutton St. Mary, and to improve the harbour
at Sutton-bridge ; also to enable the Great Northern Rail-
way Company to ease or purchase the East Lincolnshire ;
the Boston, Stamford, and Birmingham ; and the Amber-
gate, Nottingham. and Boston Railways.
GAMING IN THE ARMY.—We have been informed
on competent authority that his Royal Highness Prince
George of Cambridge, commanding the troops in the Dublin
district, lately intimated his intention of withdrawing his
name from the list of members of the Hibernian United Ser-
vice Club, unless an immediate stop was put to the gam-
bling which had been carried on there for some time, and
which had led to the ruin of several officers. His Royal
Highness also stated, that every general officer serving in
Ireland intended to follow the example set by himself in this
matter. It gives us sincere pleasure to be enabled to add,
that the committee of the Hibernian United Service Club
promptly acceded to the Prince's wishes, and have deter-
minedte to discountenance gambling within the walls of h
club by every means in their power. The
decision of Prince George on this occasion aredeserving
the highest praise that it is in our power to bestow.— United
Service Club.
THE HAWTHORN.—The bloom of the hawthorn
was never known to be more beautiful than is the case at the
present moment. In many instances the trees are one mass
of bloom, throwing around a perfume of b 9 moot delicious
character imaginable.—Perby Mercury'.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, QUARTER TO THILEE.
There was a firm market for Cotton at Liverpool
yesterday, with prices unchanged. Sales 5,000 bales,
of which 700 American were on speculation. The sales
included 4,000 bales American, at 6.}d. to 7id. per lb.
There was an animated demand for Shares, princi-
pally for Midland, North Stafford, North-Western,
York and Newcastle, and Dover half.

The advices delivered yesterday afternoon, and
brought by the Britannia, serve to show what inter-
ested speculation v7ill do, in inducing people to form
opinions. The American journals by the previous ar-
rival, generally represented that upon the re-opening of
the navigation, abundant supplies of grain would be
forwarded to the sea-board for shipment, but the private
letters written by several leading firms, threw consider-
able doubt upon this view of the question, and we have
to thank them in part for the subsequent rise in corn.
Intelligent and impartial Americans, however, with
whom we have had the pleasure of conversing, inti-
mate generally their belief that we shall receive very
large supplies of food from the opposite shores of the
Atlantic; and as freights ruled lower when the Britannia
left, shipments will be facilitated.

The accounts from Canada are satisfactory also in
reference to the supplies we may expect,
especially as American grain from the in-
terior will be allowed to pass duty free
through the British possessions if re-exported IN ithin six
months. This will attract a carrying trade of some im-
portance to Canada, and benefit both the merchants and
the shipping interest, without, as is hoped, damaging to
any extent the position of the Canadian agriculturist.
Some effect upon prices appears, however, to be likely.
The Canadas, however, must look for strength and
growth to the development of every branch of industry,
and, assuredly, its shipping interest ranks high.
The Upper Canada Mining Company is said to be
commencing operations on the Canada side of the Lakes
this spring, under most favourable auspices. The loca-
tions upon Lakes Huron and Superior are known to be
very rich in mineral wealth, and strong hopes are enter-
tained of the presence of coal on Lake Huron. Exploring
parties have already gone forward.

There are late accounts from Australia. The Sydney
advices are to March 2, at which period the weather was
brilliant, trade steady, agriculture flourishing, and the
whole colony looking more prosperous than for a long
time past.

There is rather less doing in Stocks to day, but the
quotation are firm, and have even further improved a
little compared with yesterday. The beautiful weather,
increasing supplies of foreign grain, ease in the money
market, and the anticipation that trade will gradually
expand, all conduce to excite a buoyant feeling, and an
impression that nothing but a good harvest is wanting
to bring us back to a state of confidence and pros-
perity. Consols have been 88 to 884 for July, and
Exchequer-bills have touched 7s. and 10s. premium.
Bank Stock has been at a rise to 196 and 197. The
New Three-and-a- Quarter per Cents. have been quoted
89i to 90.
The Foreign Stock Market has been very dull, but
looks firm. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been 32
to 33. Spanish, Mexican, &c., are merely nominal.
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 58/ to 581,
and Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents, 95.
Railway Shares have been higher again.
