LIBERAL AIEINIBEE,S AND EDUCATION.,

' THURSPAY.,

A party of Liberal members of the House of Commons
held a meeting this afternoon, at which it waa
agreed, on the proposition of Mr. Vernon Harcourt,
that an amendment should be moved on the second reading
of the Government Education Bill, to protest against the
religious question of education beinrenaittecl fc6 the deck.

TEE GREAT WILL CASE,—A verdict has been given in
the Court of Probate in the case of Orimstone v. Timms.
It will be remembered that the testator Mr. Hutley
began life in an impoverished condition, but by
industry and careful investment in the provision trade, he
amassed the sum of £120,000. When ho was sixty-one
years of age he married a Miss Wilkins, who was some
thirty-five years his junior, and within a week of his death
she accepted Dr. Timms, the medical adviser of
Mr. Hutley, as her husband, and they were married with-
in three months. Diriectly after his marriage, the testator,
Mr. Hutley, had made a will, leaving £50,000 to his
wife, and on behalf of the next of kin, who reside in
Australia it was now sought to upset the bill. The case
has lasted six days. Many witnesses have been called,
some declaring the testator to be sane, and some that he
was insane. The jury found that Mr. Hutley, at the time
he made his will, was of unsound mind.
A LOOPHOLE IN THE NEW BANKRUPTCY LAW.—In the
case of Turner, draper, Mile End, the Chief Judge of
the New Court of Bankruptcy stated that if the bank-
rupt, who had absconded, did not appear before the rising
of the court, he must " take the consequences, whatever
they might be." It is a noteworthy and remarkable fact
that no express provision appears to be made in terms
under the new Act to meet, as in this case, a question of
non-surrender, the old provision of outlawry having ex-
expired. It ill be a matter of much curiosity to know
what " consequences " the Mile End draper will have to
meet.

LARGE BUILDING SPECULATIONS.—In the new Court of
Bankruptcy, Daniel Tidey, a bankrupt, who has carried
on very extensive business speculations in various parts of
London applied to be allowed to pass his last examina-
tion. The accounts filed shewed a total of indebtedness
to secured creditors of £341,136, and to wise-
cured creditors of £20,578. The bankrupt estimated the
value of the surplus upon the secured property at
£267,000, consisting of finished and unfinished houses, all
of a very large Lima., but tl.c. resent m0rL8.600., with
the fact before them, that it would cost many thousands
of pounds to complete the buildings, did not consider
their security to be of more value than the amount lent.
The available assets were stated at £2,200 and £5OO,
mortgage on fixtures. No opposition being offered,
his lordship allowed the bankrupt to pass his last
examination.

BREACH OF PROMISE AHD BANKRUPTCY.—At the Lon-
don Court of Bankruptcy, John Alexander Richardson,
a clerk, came up to pass his last examination. He attri-
buted the cause of his bankruptcy to his precocity at the
age of 18, when he fell in love with Miss Emma Yule,
who was seven years his senior. After six years' court-
ship he committed the breach of contract and in an action
for breach of promise damages were given against him for
£6OO. On being cross-examined, touching his not having
paid this amount, and not being able to shew satisfactorily
that he could not have done so, his Honour adjourned the
examination in order that he might file a cash account.
TIM PROPOSED ABOLITION OF THE HOME CIRCUIT.—
The grand juries of Essex, Herts, and Kent, have
severally made presentments to the presiding judges, that
.ibtjheci: opinion the proposed abolition of the Home
uircuit is likely to be detrimental to the interests of
justice.us At Maidstone Mr. Justice Keating, in receiving
presentment declined to express an opinion on the
but Promised to. forward the document to the
Home Office.
