VENING, NOVEIVIBEit 6, 1847.

juries, prisoners, and advocates, had all
passed away
from that sublunary scene, but the mete 'try of those
who suffered in the cause of the people, :and of those
who upheld the sufferers, still lived, Ur d was deeply
cherished by the people generally; and 1 is trusted that
such means as that afforded to them ti. et evening, by
which they were enabled to give exp ression to their
feelings on this most interesting subj et would long
be continued to them. He begged, i n tonclusion, to
give the toast with which he commel iced his observa-
tions.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. BECKWITH then proposed "The memory of
Thomas Muir, Joseph Gerrald, :Maurice Margarot,
Fyshe Palmer, and William Skirving, vie tims of the
arbitrary sentence of a vindictive Scotd 4 Court in
1799," and observed upon the hardship c f the treat-
ment which these men endured for en' le avouring to
carry out principles which were now de 'dared to be
the law of the land.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. HAYESTOCK, as we understood, I iroprised "The
members of the London Corresponding . Society," and
eulogised the efforts of that society rto uphold the
rights of the people.—(Cheers.)
Mr. ALEXANDER GALLOWAY rose to , return thanks,
and was received with applause. He a: tid—lt is fifty
years since I was arrested at a public 13 ieeting at St.
Pancras with seven others, and boesno
over to take

Newgate. There were 70 or 80 persons ct mfin'ed in
gaols on charges of treasonable practicer ,ane4 many
were imprisoned for four and six moral is, and about
20 or 30 were incarcerated for 40 mor Lths.—(Hear,
hear.) I am, with one other, the onl y survivor ofl
70 or 80 who were imprisoned in the ye ar 1798. In
the year 1803 I was arrested on the ch trge of sedi-
tion, but never brought to 'trial. I h: sve been four

times in custody, and no guilt has been proved against
me.—(Hear, hear.) The next y( ar will make

—(Hear, hear.) The great objects of the London
Corresponding Society have been acco arplished. The
Parliamentary Reform Bill, the Posta: eßill, the Corn
Bill, the Railway Bill, the Free Trade, and the Re-
duction of the Tariff Bill. The principles and ex-
ample of the London Correspondin g society have
produced that sublime doctrine—t be people are the
sovereign power.—(Applause.) I trope to see you
all again. Rest assured I will COID t amongst you so
long as lam able to do so, and when lam not, why I
must only bid you farewell.—(Appl sum)
Mr. PARRY said they had gone ti irotegh all the for-
mal toasts of the evening. They had remembered
Hardy and Thelwall, and (their had
itors. They
had done honour to the services of the juries who had
tried those men—to the advocates who .'nad defended
them. They had remembered their trot her reformers
who had suffered in Scotland; and there was yet one
other thing they had to do, and that svas , not to forget
the principle for which the men whose- et temories they
had that night celebrated were ready t o suffer the se-
verest penalty of the law, rather than s, le it violated.
That principle was enunciated by the cl iairtnan when
he proposed the "Sovereignty of the People." It
had been often upheld by the Gal la nt Chairman
upon platforms and in his place in the 1 louse of Com-
mons. He was proud to think that the s .Hon. Gentle-
man would shortly have an opportunit r of again ex-
pressing his views respecting it in hi a place in the
Commons of England, and that princip' I,e was the right
of every man of sound mind to be i a possession of
the elective franchise.—(Cheers.) That was the
principle the London Corresponding E 'ociety upheld
and propagated in the tracts of great ability, and
which he should be glad to see reprin' :.e.d, at the in-
stance of a political tract society._(a, at hear.) He
contended that the principle of univ, m ;al suffrage,
which Hardy, Tooke, and Thelwall w er e prosecuted
for proposing, was as much violated i 30 w as it bad
been in 1794, and the effect of the pre sent system
was to say to six millions out of seven of ' our fellow-
subjects, that they were unfitted to d ischarge the
duties f citizens as electors, while the ,3 • were at the
same time called upon to bear all the 1.)1 trdens of the
state, in common with their more fal ro ured fellow-
aubjects.—(Hear.) After some equal ly pproprlate
observations, the Learned Gentleman c oncluded by
proposing—" A radical reform of' all ai ',uses, and a
true representation of the people of the 13 ritish empire
in Parliament."—(Cheers.)
Mr. SAUL proposed " Civil and Reli ,g.ious Liberty
all over the world," which was drunk wilt, enthusiasm.
Mr. R. R. MOORE proposed " The 'Tress," after
which,
Mr. P. A. TAYLOR proposed, in cot nplimentary
terms, the health of " The Chairman."
The CHAIRMAN briefly expressed his acknowledg-
ments for the compliment conferred u pon him, and
assured the company that he was alway s happy to be
present on occasions of that kind, w. den the real
principles of public liberty were to be, upheld and
supported.

Thanks having been given to the sb3wards, the
company retired, evidently much grr tified at the
proceedings of the evening.

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB.
The monthly meeting of this club on 'Thursday, at
the Piazza Hotel, Covent-garden, was most nume-
rously attended by members, it hay in g been very
generally understood that some ditv ission would
take place with respect to the charge of smuggling
against le Due de Stackpoole, a memt ler of the club,
whose yacht, the Gipsy Queen, had been seized by
the officers of Customs.

After the disposal of some routine bf 1: sines!,
Lord ALFRED PAGET (the Commodore) expressed
his desire to hear the opinions of any guitleman upon
the matter. He understood a member of the club
had been charged with some violation of the law,
and wished to hear the views that the ;members pre-
sent took.

Several gentlemen said a few words. They, one
and all; agreed that, pending an inquiry by the pro-
per authorities into the matter, any proceeding on
their part would be premature, but that, if the
accused party were fbund guilty, they would express
the indignation which gentlemen of a club of the
character of the Royal Thames Yacht Club, whose
dignity had been compromised, should evince.
Lord ALFRED PAGET th4l proposed the following
motion :—" That the club deeply regret that, through
the medium of the press, they have heard that a
member has been accused of breaking the laws of his
country. They sincerely hope such may not be the
case, nor will they pass any censure until the laws
have found him guilty.
Should such unfortunately
be the case, they will not lose the first opportunity of
expressing their indignation that any
have so acted."
It was carried unanimously. member should

Royal Board of Trade and Customs,
Copenhagen, 9th October, 1847.
At Spotsbjerg, on the east side of the entrance to
Isefiord, in 55 deg. 58 min. 35 sec. north latitude,
and 11 deg. 51 min. 50 sec. east longitude, a fixed
sideral light will be exhibited, placed in a light house
10 feet from the ground, and 120 feet above the level
of the sea.
This new light, which will appear for the first time
on the Ist November next, and afterwards will con-
tinue to burn the same time as the other lights of the
kingdom, will be visible at sea at the distance of two
Danish miles, and will also light the Isefiord in the
direction of about S.W. by S.
In consequence of the establishment of this new
light, the lanthern on Spotsbjerg, which the fisher-
men have hitherto been allowed to exhibit there from
the Ist of September to the Ist of November, will be
discontinued in future.

ASTLEY'S ROYAL' AMPHITHEATRE.—A new grand
military spectacle, entitled The Camp of Silesia, founded
on the libretto of Meyerbeer's celebrated opera, is to be
produced here on Monday evening. The play is written
by Mr. J. H. Stocqueler, and the spectacle is produced
under the superintendence of Mr. W. West. Report
speaks highly of the gorgeoucness and magnificence with
which this drama has been placed upon the stage, and
great success may be confidently anticipated.
His EXCELLENCY M. JAMES BROOS.E.—In addi-
tion to other marks of appreciation which will be con-
ferred by her Majesty upon the enterprising Englishman
who has done so much for the interests of his country
during his residence in Borneo, the Meander, of 44 guns,
commissioned at Chatham on Monday last by Lieutenant
Reed, late of the Asia, and to be commanded by the
Hon. Henry Keppel, late of the Dido, 18 guns, recently
returned from service in the Chinese seas, will convey
his Excellency, Governor James Brooke, to Borneo, the
scene of his former labours, in the early part of next
year, and remain at that station, to assist him in pro-
tecting the interests of Great Britain in that quarter of
the world. Several of the parties who served in the
Dido have applied to the Admiralty for permission to
serve in the Meander, under their former gallant com-
mander; and it is expected that she will be ready for sea
and leave this country for Borneo early in l'ebruary next.

DISASTROUS FlRE.—About five o'clock yesterda
morning a fire was discovered in the tan-yard premiseys
of Mr. Joseph Watson, tanner, of Kirkstall, near Leeds.
The fire engines kept by the mill-owners in the neigh-
bourhood, and also those from Leeds. were promptly on
the spot, but the flames were not subdued till consider-
able damage had been done not only to the buildinge
s,
but to the large stock of leather and bark. The damag

BOTANICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON.—The ordinary
meeting was held last evening at the society's rooms, 20,
Bedford-street, Strand, J. G. Gray, E"l., F-R-S., presi-
dent, in the chair. The secretary stated that since the
last meeting some very valuable specimens of British
plants have been received, and that they would be dis-
tributed to the members at the next distribution of the
society's duplicates. Specimens of a new British plant
(exhibited at the Linnean Society, on Tuesday last),
and supposed to be an hydrulla or anacharis, was pre-
sented by the Rev. A. Bloxam.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTU, Nov. 5.--The Sharpshooter iron
;un boat of 489 tons, and a screw propeller of 202
horse power, built on lines by Fincham, at Blackwall
last year, was hauled alongside this jetty this morning,
to be immediately rigged and prepared for commis-
sion by the dockyard hands.
The Bellerophon, 78, Captain Baynes, is getting
on very well with her fitment and manning. She
now only wants about 130 to complete her crew. It
is highly creditable to both officers and men in this
ship, that up to this time not one man has " run."
Desertion generally prevails to a great extent in ships
fitting out.
The orders for the Terrible steam frigate to proceed
to Sheerness to refit have been countermanded,
boilermakers having been sent from London to make
the necessary repairs at this port.
The Virago steam sloop, Commander Lunn, arrived
to•day from the Mediterranean. She left Gibraltar
on Saturday last, direct for Spithead. She has he( n
four years and seven months in commission, and v. ill
now be paid off at Woolwich.
The Asia, 84, Captain R. P. Stopford, and the
Satellite, 18, Commander R. H. B. Rowley, are
hourly expected here ; the former from Sheerners,
the latter from Plymouth.
In Harbour—Victory, Excellent, Victoria and Al-
bert, Bellerophon, and Recruit; Terrible, Sidon,
Lightning, Fairy, Myrtle, and Echo steamers ;
Blenheim, and Maria Somes, transports.
At Spithead—Virago, and Princess Royal tram-
port. _

LIGHTHOUSES AT FARON AND
YSTAD.
NOTICE TO MARINERS.
Swedish and Norwegian Consulate-General,
2, Crosby-square, Nov. 4, 1847.
Sir,—l have the honour to communicate to you
the following translation of an ordinance issued by the
Royal Navy Board at Stockholm, on Sept. 24, 1847 :
"The Royal Navy Board hereby makes know► n,
for the information of mariners, the following publi-
cation regarding the lighthouses at Faron and Ystad,
viz. :

" Ist. The lighthouse on the N. E. point, or the
Holm point, on Faron, referred to in the ordinance of
the 16th of April last, has been built during the sum-
mer, and will be lighted about the latter half of the
month of October, of the present year. As a differ-
ence between the light house on the island of Oster-
garn, east of Gottland, this new one will be revolving,
and will give four equally strong lustres, of about
thirty seconds each, during a period of eight minutes,
with a minute and a hairs darkness between each
lustre. The light will be visible in every direction
from north to east and to south-west, and can be
seen from aship's deck in clear weather at a distance of
33- geographical miles.
"2nd. In place of the lanterns at Ystad, hitherto
only lighted on certain occasions, there have been
built two light-houses, provided with sideral lamps.
The larger one, or the one furthest in the harbour, will
have a common white lustre, fifty-two feet above the
level of the sea, and will be visible from W.N.W. to
S. to E.N.E., and can be seen at a distance of from
two to three miles during clear weather. The lesser
and outer light-house is erected on the farthest end of
the west pier of the harbour, is twenty feet above the
level of the sea ; and, to distinguish it from the greater
light-house, as well as from the lights of the houses
of the town, has a red lustre visible all round the
horizon, at a distance of about one to one-and-a-half
geographical miles. This light-house, on entering the
harbour, must be taken close on the larboard tack.
The bearings of these light-houses from each other is
N.E. by N. and S.W. by S., and the distance between
them is 1451 feet. The light-house on the west pier
is painted white, and the larger one is painted two-
thirds from the bottom red, and the remainder white.
These two will be lighted first towards the end of the
month of October, and will, as well as the light-house
on the Wand of Faron, be lighted during the hours
appointed by Government in the rules and regulations
regarding pilotage and beacons.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 5.)
SurstArt,—To-day the raw Sugar market presented a
healthy appearance: all parties were desirous to operate,
prices advanced, and supplies were small. West India
Muscovado of all qualities was in excellent demand, 890
hhds and tres finding buyers; the rates paid are 6d, and
in some cases Is per cwt above those of Friday last.
The total sales for the week amount to 3,100 hhds and
trcs. Thepublic sales held to-day were small. The
market for Sugar of all kinds closes with an improving
appearance. A public sale of 120 hhds of Barbadoes is
declared for Tuesday.
REFINED.—To-day prices were firm for refined goods,
and the demand was active—Standard lumps at 53s to
53s 6d, and brown grocery 52s 6d to 535. For Bonded
crushed Sugar the demand is active for exportation,
chiefly at 28s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar, but a good business was concluded privately, and
the rates paid were rather above those that prevailed
previously. A cargo of Porto Rico sold at 18s 6d to 19s,
and 500 chests brown and yellow Bahia 173 to 19s
per cwt.

MAURITIIIS.—This afternoon the demand was active
fur Al:turitius Sugar privately ; 2,897 bags 466 casks
were offered st auction ; about 500 bags were withdrawn,
and the remainder sold briskly at an advance on former
rates of 6d to is per cwt ; fine yellow fetched 41s 6d,
good 37s 6d to 395, middling 36s to 375, very low and
ordinary brown 25s 6d to 28s 6d, mid 29s to 29s 6d, fine
32s to 333 6d, sugar drainage damaged and washed 29s
64 to 40s, and syruppy 29s 6d to 41s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon at public sale 1,098
bags of Bengal Sugar were sold at the full value, viz.
good middling white Benares 445, low 41s 6d to 425,
damp and washed 41$ 6d to 42s 6d per cwt. Madras
was sought after, and stiffer rates were offered. Of
Khaur Bengal 8,000 bags were sold in the private market,
at 29s 3d.
MoLesass.—For West India of all sorts the market
continues in a dull state, and prices are on the decline.
A parcel of good Antigua has been sold at 13s per cwt.
Bengal Treacle is little wanted, and 17s to 18s is the
value.

Cocos.—West India is offered rather under former
rates, but buyers have operated with reluctance on all
kinds, and the supply is more than sufficient for the de-
mand. Of 700 bags of Trinidad offered at auction, a
part only sold : good grey 42s to 42s 6d, middling 40s to
41s, good red 43s to 455. In Foreign there has been
little passing privately, and 460 bags of Bahia at auction
were taken in at 39s for fine bright red. A further fall
it is expected will take place in the value of all kinds of
Cocoa, as there is a plentiful stock here.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Plantation Ceylon was in
good demand, and 670 bags 24 casks at auction all sold
at an advance on former rates of 2s to 3s—good coloury
fetched 63s to 655, middling 52s 6d to 56s 6d, low
middling 49s to 50s 6d, fine fine ordinary 46s 6d to 465
6d, fine ordinary 43s to 43s 6d, good ordinary 41s to
42s 6d, triage 31s, and damaged 32s 6d to 465, very low
ditto 15s to 15s 6d. Native met with increased atten-
tion, and 1,434 bags all found buyers at very low rates
—good ordinary 32s 6d to 335, real good ordinary 33s to
33s 6d, and damaged 2is 6d to 31s 6d. For auction,
3,700 bags 200 casks Plantation Ceylon and 50 casks
200 barrels Jamaica are declared.
TEA.—There is no improvement to notice in the
value of Congou, but the low rates that exist induced
the home trade to be more inclined to do business, and
they have taken several parcels of all qualities ; indeed,
the business concluded has been greater than daring the
last few weeks. The rates accepted have been—low qua-
lity 7fd to Bd, good common Sid to Bid, mid and but mid
9d to lid, good strong black leaf ls to is 2d, fine and
Pekoe flavour, is is 3d to is 7d; upon these terms there
is, however, a desire on the part of holders to sell.

23 EXTENTS IN AID.
08 SALISBURY, THURSDAY, Nov, 4.—A jury was
As specially empannelled this morning, at nine o'clock,
148 at the White Hart Hotel, by 31r. Goidney, under
3i sheriff for Wilts, to ascertain in what amount the
I Messrs. Brodie, bankers at Salisbury, were indebted
N to the Crown for moneys deposited on account of the
Salisbury Savings Bank, the staff officer and Pen-
sioners, and the Excise.
The UNDER Startup, after reading the writs,
stated that the present proceedings were instituted for
% the purpose of enabling the officers of the Crown to
attach the property of the bank in liquidation of the
claims immediately.
Proofs were put in, showing that a sum of
873/. ss. 2d. had been paid into the bank on account
of the Salisbury Savings Bank, another sum of 5481.
on account of the Excise department, and a further
sum of 981. 12s. 4. on account of the staff officer, for
the payment of Pensioners.
The UNDER SHERIFF stated to the jury that pro-
perty to the following amount had been seized, that
there were no available securities y€t found, that
there was no land nor buildings likely to benefit the
estate, all appearing to be either mortgaged, or secured
on life annuities :

The jury gave a verdict for the sums claimed, with
expenses, amounting together to 1,519/. 17s. 6d., and
leaving a balance of 8,755/. 17s. 11d. only to satisfy
the claims of all the other creditors. '.Chis day a
large mill has been taken posse:sion of by the sheriff,
and a stationer's shop, conducted by Mr. Hearn, at
the corner of Catherine-street, has also been closed
this morning, in which Mr. Brodie had the principal
share. The jury had each 3s. awarded them, which
they unanimously agreed should be given to a poor
man who has been thirty years a servant of ➢lr. W.
Brodie's, and everything in money he postesses is in
the notes of that bank—himself in the last stage of
consumption, he having a wife and seven children,
four of them at the present moment lying ill of a dan-
gerous fever.

y ..___Las toleiing.upvv,ards
of
800 inhabitants and electors of this borough, support-
ers of the Liberal cause, assembled at the Victoria
Rooms, to celebrate the return of Messrs. Cockburn
and Willcox at the late general election. The bo-
rough of Southampton had for many years past
been represented by Conservatives, and although
many attempts had been made at various times to
return Liberal candidates, those attempts were never
successful till the last election, when, on account of
the care with which the registration had been attended
to by the Liberal party, the Conservatives who
were the former members, namely, Messrs. Hope
and Mildmay, retired from the contest, leaving the
Liberal candidates, Messrs. Cockburn and Willcox,
in undisputed possession of the field. A tri-
umph so complete has given a fresh impetus
to the Liberal cause in this town, and there can
be little doubt that henceforth the support
it will receive, will render the return of popular
candidates at future elections a matter of
certainty. The ;victory gained for the first time
by the Liberal party, in the recently contested muni-
cipal elections, also served to put them in good
spirits, and contributed very materially to the interest
and enthusiasm of yesterday's demonstration. Mr.
Cockburn arrived in the town by special train about
three o'clock, and was warmly received by his friends
and supporters, who met him at the station. In court.
pliment to Mr. Willcox, who is extensively engaged
in the shipping trade, flags were flying from all the
vessels on the Southampton waters, and dinners took
Mr. Anderson-,
place on board many of them, to celebrate the Hon.

Member's return to Parliament. The dinner took

ifiGuroN's ELECTRIC T
_ EIEGRAPIL—The electric
telegraph on the Baden
Rail way was opened on the 15th
of October last: The Government of Baden before
la •
ying it down, appointed a commission to examine all
tthe different electric telegraphs in use, and to report as
o the best plan. In accordance with the recommenda-
tion of this commission, they adopted Highton's Patent
Gold Leaf Telegraph ; and the practical working of it
gives them the highest satisfaction. Professor Eisenlohr
of Carlsrube, who has been appointed by the Govern-
ment to superintend it, reports that the plan is so perfect
that it must come into general use throughout the world.
He states that with one wire only information is being
transmitted at the rate of thirty letters a minute, whilst
the most complicated apparatus, and one that costs ten
times as much and requires a much more powerful cur.
rent of electricity, gives not more than sixty or seventy
letters per minute and is not so certain in its action.
The words in the report of the learned Professor are,
"It excites the admiration of the world."

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY,_Nov._S.

The LORD CHANCELLOR sat only for a short time
this morning. No caso of any importance came be-
fore his Lordship. The Court rose early.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 5,
LA SONNAMBULA.-BOOSEY t'. DAVIDSON.

This was an issue to try whether the defendant
had or had not infringed the copyright of several
songs in Bellim's well-known opera of La Sonnam-
bula. Mr. Boosey, a music seller in Holles-street,
Oxford-street, had published the songs in the opera.
The case was tried before Mr. Justice Erle during
the last term, and the jury found for the plaintiff,
he having established his property in the music to
their satisfaction.
The declaration set forth that the music had been first
published and printed in England, and the defendant
pleaded thereto, first, that the plaintiff did not possess
the copyright ; secondly, that he was not the pro-
prietor; thirdly, that there was no copyright, even
supposing the songs to have been first printed and
published in England ; and, fourthly, that they were
not first printed in England. Of course this raised the
question, whether in point of law the plaintiff, a resi-
dent of England, could possess the copyright of a foreign
work which had been assigned to him by a foreign
author residing abroad. The Learned Judge who
tried the cause considered this matter of sufficient
importance to come under the review of this court in
banco. The only proof given by Mr. Boosey of his
proprietorship was a certificate from Stationers' Hall,
setting forth that the music was first printed and
published by him on the 10th of June, 1831;
it gave no other account of the matter. The
question whether the plaintiff could set up a
claim to the copyright had been decided by the Lord
Chief Baron in the case of Chappell v. Purday, as
that Learned Judge had decided that a publisher in
England could have no property like copyright in
the musical compositions of a foreigner residing
abroad, although the author might do so if the work
was originally published here, and he were a resident
in the country.
Mr. Sergeant SHEA applied for a rulo nisi, calling
upon the plaintiff to show cause why there should not
be a new trial on the grounds stated above, which was
acceded to.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov.s.
(Sittings in Banco.)
MORLEY V. ATTENBORONIM.

This was an action tried on the second day of the
present term before Mr. Baron Platt, in which a ver-
dict was taken by consent for the sum of seven
guineas, with leave for the defendant to move to enter
a nonsuit.

Mr. MARTIN accordingly moved for a rule nisi in
the case, on the ground that the defendant, a pawn-
broker, did not by sending his unredeemed pledges to
any rooms for sale by public auction give title to the
pqrchaser.
The COURT intimated their opinion that they were
not disposed to accede to the argument of the Learned
Counsel. They would not, however, refuse the rule
applied for.—Rule granted.
(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Baron PLATT and
Common Juries.)
TESSENMETER V. ADCOCK.

This case was again resumed to-day, and occupied
tho attention of the Court during the whole of its
sitting. The further hearing of the case was ad-
journed till to-morrow. •

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 5.
(Before Mr. Commissioner FANE.)
IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF D. C. H. LOMER.

The bankrupt, a merchant in London.street, came
up on the question of certificate, supported by Mr.
Lowrance.

The debts and liabilities were about 35,0001. It
appeared that he made a considerable profit upon his
general trading, but heavy losses by speculations in
wheat and in Indian corn were the causes of his
failure. There was not the slightest imputation of
fraud. The books were well kept, and the assignees
expressed themselves satisfied with the bankrupt's
conduct.—Certificate granted.

THE SALISBURY BANK.

In this matter, in which a fiat was opened a few
days ago before Mr. Commissioner Evans, we are
authorised to state that the Messrs. Brodie, the pro-
prietors, have surrendered to the jurisdiction of this
court.

We have been further informed that Mr. Knapp,
the proprietor of the Abingdon Bank, who it was
alleged had absconded, will also, in the course of a few
days, surrender to his fiat.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 5.
The new courts attached to this tribunal were
opened to-day for the first time, the Chief Commis-
sioner and Messrs. Law and Phillips severally hblding
sittings.

(Before Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS.)
ILE.WILLIAIII, PHILIP MASTERS CROFT.

This insolvent, who had kept the Head
Tavern, Windmill-street, Haymarket, was opposed by
Mr. Nichols, for Messrs. Cannaux, who complained
that their debt had been contracted fraudulently, the
insolvent representing that he had paid 2001. for a
lease of his house, which now turned out to be untrue.
The insolvent denied, however, making such a state-
ment.

His HONOUR decided that the debt had been frau-
dulently contracted, and remanded the insolvent for a
period of six calendar months from the date of his
vesting order.
