Henry Redwood,, police-sergeant No. 13 of the C
stat ed that about a quarter before two o'clock this morning,
while on duty in St. Martin's-court, he heard a disturbance
in the direction of Leicester-square. He was proceeding
there when, in Bear-street, he found the defendants 1
walking arm-in-arm, shouting and singing with all their
milicht. The noise they made was sufficient to arouse
the inhabitants from their beds. He told them t(
pans on in a quiet manner, on which they both crossed over t
to him, and, after treating him with great derision, said the 3 r
were gentlemen, and had a right to do as they liked. IL
again advised them to go away without making further dis •
turbance ; they, however, did not do so, but followed witnes
round his beat, shouting and singing as before, until at las G
he was obliged to call assistance and take them to the station, •

during the sitting of the House. A question was asked
whether it was in the power of Members to attend the House
after having] been appointed to a Committee. He did con-
sider that the dutyof attending the House -was a higher duty,
and therefore the interests of a Committee might yield, pro-
vided that Members considered it necessary for the interests
of the country that they should attend, and take a part in
the debate. Members, of course, would use a proper dis-
cretion in their attendance, and not put parties to an in-
creased and unnecessary expense, by repeated adjournments.
Lord G. SOMERSET having seconded the motion,
Sir G. GREY and Mr. ASLIONBY made a few observations
on it, the latter Hon. Member having taken the opportunity
to call upon the House to adopt some measure by which the
Members would be relieved from the very laborious and
sometimes almost ridiculous duties which they had to per-
form with respect to railway Bills in the committee-rooms.
Sir J. C. HOBHOUSE repeated the observations which
he had made on the previous motion.
Mr. MILNER GIBSON said it appeared to him that the
solution of the difficulty would be found in this, that the
House and the Committee could not sit at the same time;
they must evidently sit at different times, that was an
inevitable alternative. Now his Hon. Friend the Member
for Salford (Mr. Brotherton) seemed to think that if the House
determined that it should sit from twelve till six, and that the
Committees should also sit on the same day, the Committees
should undoubtedly sit from eight in the morning until
twelve.—(Laughter.) His Hon. Friend was really prepared
to do that, and unless they did something of that sort, he
(Mr. Gibson) really could not see how the difficulty was to
be got rid of. His Hon. Friend (Mr. Mark Philips) and his
other Hon. Friend the Member for Durham (Mr. Bright),
who were sitting upon Committees, were especially desirous of
being present during the discussion on so important a Bill as
that which would shortly come before them ( the Factory Bill).
But, on the other hand, they would not like to adjourn the
Committees on which they sat, as the Hon. Member for Ox-
ford had suggested, because if they did so they would put
the parties that had business before the Committees to con-
siderable expense.—(Hear, hear.) He, therefore, thought
' that in the end they would be compelled to have recourse to
' the proposal of the Hon. Member for Salford, or they would
have to give up the Wednesday sittings from twelve till six.
—(Cries of " No, no.") However, he had given his solution
of the difficulty.—The motion was then agreed to.

BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE.)
IN RE WILLIAM BURLEIGIL
To. day was appointed for a proof of debts under the estate
of this bankrupt, who had failed to a large amount, and had. I
been .an attorney.
The present application was made to admit a proof on be-
half of the trustees of the marriage settlement of Norman
Burl() igh, the son of the bankrupt. It will no doubt be re-
membered that a short time since the Learned Commissioner
gave JudgmeNt in a claim by Wm. Norman for a very large
mot, nt, which it was contended was due to him under the
marri aga settlement of the bankrupt and his wife (the claim ant's mother), but the Court was of opinion that the
trustii of the deed had been violated with the consent of the
plan:l.:tiff, and that therefore he had no right to complain, and
that, in fact, he bad joined in the bankrupt's speculation.
T 1 e present claim was to prove for about 6,0004 which, it
was vontended, had been paid by the bankrup/ as trustee of
the marriage settlement of his son with a Miss Milner, the
daughter of Dean Milner. The money had been paid to
Nor man Burleigh, but it was set up now that the payments
wens contrary to the trusts of the deed, &c.—that Norman.
Bur I eigh was insane.

ZOUCH AND ♦NOTHER V. PARKER.'] •
he plaintiffs in this action are linen-drapers at Newport,
in the Isle of Wight, and the defendant is a railway carrier
in the Old Bailey. The action was brought to recover the
val tte of goods entrusted to the defendant for delivery, bat
had been lost.

The defendant did not plead to the action, and the present
was an inquiry to assess the value of such goods.
N early a dozen witnesses were called to prove the delivery,
and value of goods sent to Messrs. Westron and Dignam for
plaintiffs, and forwarded by them to defendant to be sent by
rail to Newport. There was a box and two large parcels
out,* ide—the whole at wholesale prices amount to 13/. la., for
whiich the jury gave a verdict.
