working under bond, but holders are firm, and will not sell

vately in any kind of Coffee for home consumption or expor-
tation. Ceylon good ordinary native can be obtained at 38s

Snarrs.—Previous improved rates have been fully sus-
tained for all descriptions of Jamaica Rum, and the demand
has been active. For Leeward Islands the demand has been
good, but no further rise in prices can be quoted. East India
is wanted, and fetch full rates. Deme.tara has been in good
request at the previous value Any further advance in the
value of Brandy has been prevented from taking place by the
announcement of a large public sale ; but holders are arm,
and the demand has been good for all descriptions.
A farther decrease has taken place in the stock of Brandy.
To-day there was less demand for all kinds of Rum, but
holders were unwilling to make any concession in price, as
the stock is diminishing.

higher rates ; Black Pepper has rot risen in value. In
white several purchases have been made privately chiefly
at 4d to 6d per lb. Ginger is still wanted but
quotations have ceased to rise. For brown Nutmegs
the demand has been good, and the rates equal to
those previous current. Mace is much wanted
and prices tend upwards. In Cinnamon several purchases
have been made upon the last Quarterly sale. For Cloves
the demand has been limited. Cassia Buds are held firmly at
62s to 66s per cwt. Pimento has been in excellent request,
and a further improvement occurred in prices.
COCIIINEAL.—This afternoon Cachineal met with atten-
tion; 211 bags Honduras silvers at auction all sold at hi per
lb. advance.

TEA.--The market has an improving appearance for Black,
the demand for all sorts much increased, and the business
transacted has been greater than for some time. In Green
many purchases have been made, and there are not sellers
upon previous terms.

met with less attention, and prices have fallen 9d per cwt.
Rape Seed Oil has been extensively dealt in, and prices are
yat on the advance, the supply being less than it was. For
Cocoat Nut the demand has been active, but any further
advance in the value has been prevented from occurring
by the market being less freely supplied. In Palm there
has been a good business transacted, but holders have been
compelled to take rather lower rates.
TALLOW. further decline occurred in the value of all
descriptions, a large quantity of Russian having been again
received, and arrivals of other descriptions having been upon
a more extended scale, while large parcels from all quarters
are likevrise near at hand.

CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
IN THE MATTER OF DYCE SOMBRE, A LUNATIC.
Mr. ROLT, upon this case being called on, stated that
some communications had taken place between the par-
ties, but no arrangement had been come to. Under
these circumstances he had to ask that the case might
stand over to Friday week, which would be the lunatic
petition day.
His LORDSHIP assented to the application.
GOMPERTZ V. GOMPERTZ.
__ _

This case came before the Court upon an appeal from
the decision of the present Vice-Chancellor of England.
The question in the case was whether under the will of
Solomon Baron Gompertz, made in 1796, his children,
who share under the residuary, took them for life or
absolutely. It appeared that the testator at his death
bad ten children, five sons and five daughters, and
by his will, after disposing of part of his pro-
perty, ho gave the residue to his children, the sons to
take two parts each, and the daughters one. The terms
in which the residue was given, were " to her children
for lite, and after their death to become to their lawful
issue. One of the daughters of the testater, named
Sarah, married a gentleman named Hollinden, and died
without children, and then the question was raised
whether her husband, as her representative, was entitled
to her part of the residue. A suit was instituted for
the purpose of having that question settled, and upon its
being heard before the Vice• Chancellor of England,
his Honour decided that the share of Sarah Hollinden
remained undisposed of, and from that judgment the
present appeal was brought.
Mr. Walker and Mr. Twells appeared in support of
the decree of the Court below, and
Mr. James Parker and Mr. Speed were counsel for the
appellant, Mr. Hollinden.

The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the ar-
guments, gave judgment, affirming the decision of the
Court below, and directing the costs to be costs in the
cause.

of the documents being in his possession, he
had handed them over as some fraudulent statement;
then such an action might lie. That Captain Roso was
never to have any of the proceeds of the bills, and once
for all, he might state that he never parted with a single
penny of his money ; that it was well known to all the
parties that he had no money to part with ; that he had
no property whatever ; that he had even sold the rever-
sion of his father's estate, in order to pay certain debts,
and he had indicted the defendants for conspiring to
cheat him out of money, whereas 17,0001. found its way
into his pocket out of these transactsons, and not even a
halfpenny was taken from him—thus sufficiently dis-
tinguishing the case, he thought, from all that had oc-
curred, and all that might occur, it was certainly not a
conspiracy to defraud Captain Rose out of anything, but
into something, and the parties who were to be cheated,
if any such intention existed, were those who ad-
vanced money on the bills drawn by Captain
Rose. The 4th count was not proved for similar
reasons. The sth specified the conspiracy -to
have consisted in cheating Captain Rose out of his
money, which was clearly a misconception, because all
the world knew that Captain Rose had no money, and
that the whole transaction was not entered into with the
view of obtaining money from him, but for the purpose
of raising money on his acceptances. The seventh and
eighth counts were equally invalid on similar grounds,
and, therefore, he would not trouble the court with any
arguments upon them. The sixth count was in this
form :—The conspiracy was alleged to have been con-
cocted for the purpose of defrauding Captain Rose of
divers large sums of money, which were his proper
moneys, and then an overt act was charged, namely, that
they did then and there defraud Captain Rose of bills of
exchange, and of the proceeds thereof prospectively.
Could anything be more vague--anything more general?
A man of property might be induced to marry a
pauper, on the strength of being told that she pos-
sessed great wealth, or a woman of ill-fame, on
a similar statement. In either of these cases, according
to the doctrine advanced its this, would an indictment lie?
He apprehended not. The ground on which Mr. Peacock
obtained a rule from the Court for a new trial was, that
the jury found the defendants guilty of six conspiracies.
In the great case of " O'Connell v. the Queen," it was
held that a general judgment referred in some respect to
the whole of the indictment, but that if there was one
bad count, that the judgment could not be maintained.
So, he apprehended, it must be held in this case. In fact
the Court had the power to inflict six separate punish-
ments on each finding ; nay, more, it would become a
question whether the Court would discharge its duty
properly if it forbore to inflict such separate punish-
ments. On these, grounds he held that the Court must
accede to a new trial.
Mr. PEACOCK followed on the same side. He
reiterated the arguments of Mr. Hill, that an
unstamped document was inadmissible, and quoted
a number of cases in which unstamped docu-
ments wese so held. The only cases in which such
documents could be admitted in evidence were those
criminal cases in which the fraud and conspiracy
charged consisted in forged unstamped documents,
which were necessary to prove the offence charged. The
third count set forth that the defendants conspired to
get the bills from Rose on the statement that a person
named Parker, then staying at Hatchett's llotel, would
advance 55,0001, on them, and that Gompertz was to
receive 12,5001. of the amount for his trouble. Now, the
evidence of Rose himself went to show that he was per-
fectly insolvent at the time he signed the bills, and other
evidence adduced showed that the bills were signed by
Rose for the accommodation of Gompertz; that the bills
were never in the possession of Rose ; that they were
not his property ; that he received the warrant of
attorney from Gompertz as security for drawing the
bills ; and that his condition forbade the inference that
he could be defrauded of their amounts. In fact, if there
was any conspiracy to defraud at all, it must have been
a conspiracy to defraud those who advanced money upon
the bills. By the very agreement amongst the whole of
the parties Captain Rose was not to receive any of the
produce of the bills, and up to this time he had not ever
paid the bills. He dealt with the 4th, sth, 6th, and Bth
counts, and held that they were invalid for the reasons
he had stated. He then referred to the six separate
findings of the jury, and held that they were bad, inas-
much as they rendered the parties six times punishable
for what was virtually the same charge. On these
grounds he held that the Court must accede to a new
trial.
Mr. WATSON, Q.C., who appeared with Mr. Cowling,
for Mr. Robert Witham, one of the defendants, then
proceeded to address the Court. He said he was in

strutted to say, on behalf of his client, who was the
youngest son of Mr. William Witham, that he was
wholly innocent of the crime brought to his charge,
and that his conviction must have arisen out

of some misconception on the part of the jtiryl.
who tried him, and that his conviction could only
have arisen out of some of those circumstances which
generally weighed in the minds of a jury called upon to
try an indictment of conspiracy. Mr. Francis W itham
died before the indictment was brought before a court of
justice, so that, whether he was guilty, or whether he
had been made a dupe of, or not, were questions which it
was unnecessary now to determine. His client was 19
years of age at the time, and when the indictment
wac, instituted against him he had only been two years
in his father's office. His father and grandfather had
occupied a high position as solicitors, and had carried on
business in the same office, in Gray's-inn-square, since
1J72. Captaiu Rose was an outcast from his family, an
outlaw, and in great pecuniary difficulties, his only
means :of subsistence being half-pay, and 200/., which
was allowed him by his friends, and the reversionary
interest of 8,0001., to which, after all, he had no
claim whatever, as his father had advanced the
money upon it. Captain Rose, it appeared, had been a
candidate to represent the borough of Poole in Parlia-
ment, and in order to pay the expenses of the contest a
Mr. Slade lent him 1,0001., but as be could not get it
back again he instructed Mr. Parr, his solicitor, to pro.
teed to London in order to obtain its repayment from
Captain Rose. Being thus pressed, and being anxious to
get rid of the importunities of Mr. Parr, he and Gompertz,
on the 25th of Avgust, during the long vacation of
1841, attended at the office of Messrs. Witham, and in-
duced Mr. Robert Witham, who was the only person
there, and he had nothing whatever to do with the ma-
nagement of the firm, to write a letter, to Mr. Parr,
stating, in the name of the firm, that they had every
reason to believe that the bills of Captain Rose,
for 30,0001., would be duly paid by Parker.
There could be no question that this letter was obtained
for the express purpose of satisfying Mr. Parr, and was
obtained from a young man of 19, who was not entrusted
with any voice in the management of the firm, by Rose
and Gompertz, both of whom were experienced men of
the world. This was the only evidence against Robert
Witham. Rose, however, stated at the trial that the letter

was written without any pressing request on his part, or
on the part of Gompertz. On the very day the letter was
exhibited to Mr. Parr, and an order given to him or
Messrs. Witham for 1,0001. Shortly after, Parr, at a
meeting at the Carlton Club, he having received a letter
from Mr. Witham sen., saying that Parker was not his
client, and that he did not know him, stated that he be-
_

lieved the matter was all humbug, and that they had
only:misled him.

Lord PENMAN said the worst part of the matter was
that the Withams acted as the attorneys of Rose and
Gompertz, and that a solicitor named Smith acted for

- .
the imaginary Mr. Parker, thus favouring the assump-
tion that they did not act for Parker because there was
fraud in the transaction.

Mr. WATSON went on to say, that notwithstanding
the letter of Mr. Witham, sen., stating that Parker, who
was to advance the money on the bills, was not his
client. Rose, who knew of the circumstance, signed
the bills shortly after. Then it was stated by Mr. Parr
that Mr. Robert Witham was at the meeting at the
Carltun Club, whereas it appeared from his affidavits
that he never was in the Carlton Club in his life time,
and that the evidence given in the course of the trial was
a mistake ; ho was often taken for his brother, who is
dead.

Lord DENMAN stated that the Court would look at the

affidavits bfore hearing Mr. Watson farther.

BAIL COURT,-(THIS DAY.)

'Sittings in Banco, before M. Justice TATTESOI:O

THE QUEEN V. DITNN.

The defendant in this case appeared to make an ap-
plication to the Court to change the venue in au indict-
ment against him for perjury, from the city of London to
the county of Middlesex.

The Defendant stated that his Lordship would re-
number that, in chambers, a writ of certiorari had been
granted to remove the indictment from the Central
Criminal Court to this Court, and he now sought to
change the venue. The affidavit on which he moved
stated all the usual facts mentioned in such applications,
excepting that he could not obtain a fair trial in the
city of London, although there were many difficulties in
the way of it which did not exist in the county of Mid-
dlesex. The prosecutrix resided in Middlesex.
Sir F. THEsIGER stated that the applicant had de.
scribed himself as living in Red Lion-square.
Mr. DUNN—Did not reside there at present, and no
advantage would, he felt sure, be taken of any such mis-
take. The prosecutrix resided in Middlesex, as did both
her partners, who were also parties to the prosecution.
The allegation in the indictment was, that he had at-
tempted to make the parties bankrupt, and although it
was not a true allegation, it was calculated to create a
very angry feeling amongst commercial men, because
any such attempt must necessarily be considered a harsh,
wanton, and improper proceeding. The proceeding be
had adopted was to summon the parties as traders, and
that summons would not make bankrupts of them. Co-
mmercial men were peculiarly alive to any unhandsomeit,
wealthy,
and against parties equally respectable,
and responsible, and though he had defence,agocin

natural influence. He sought to come into their county
it
to be tried, and would be a further convenience as all
resided there. There had been certain
proceedings eas dopted in the Old Bailey which were cal-
culated to create very great alarm in his mind as to the
safety of carrying on the proceedings in the city of Lon-
don. When the case came on in Chambers, it was
stated that there was only one witness examined to sup-
port the indictment. That was not enough, and, besides,
since the indictment had been found, he had ascertained
that a most material addition had been made to it.
They had placed on the back of the record the name
of the foreman several weeks after the indictment had
been found. That record had since been returned into
the Crown office. T1..,t was the mascot. fur his sup-
posing that ho would not have as fair a trial in London
as in Middlesex. lle supposed that the parties were too
respectable for a moment to think of shoving him into
a corner by any unjust means.
Mr. Justice PATTESON—W hat is the indictment for ?
Mr. liuNN said it was for perjury ; for swearing in
the Bankruptcy Court that Miss Burdett Ccutts was in-
debted to him in a certain sum,
