LAW INTELLIGENCE.
JUDGES CHAMBERS, Oct. 17.
(Before Mr. Baron MARTIN.)
LONGEOTTOM V. STORES.
In this case a question was raised as to the operation
of the Irish Insolvent Debtors' Act in England. The
plaintiff is a butober at Herne Bay, and the defendant, a
doctor of medicine, also resided at the same place, and
contracted a debt, for which he was sued and judgment
obtained. Last year the defendant went to Dublin, and
whilst there it was alleged that he had taken the benefit
of the Act and was discharged from his debts, including
the amount due to the plaintiM After the discharge, as
alleged, he returned to Herne Bay, and had been
arrested by tho plaintiff on the judgment so obtained,
and was now in Maidstone Gaol. A summons had been
issued on his behalf for his discharge, and the parties
now attended to discuss the point.
Mr. LEWIS (Lewis and Lewis) applied for the dis-
charge of the defendant, and cited the case of an Irish
baronet heard before Mr. Justice Patteson, who decided
that a discharge under the Irish Insolvent Act would
protect a party residing in England. On that authority
he asked his Lordship to order the discharge of: the pre-
sent defendant.

Mr. Bunch, as attorney for the plaintiff, submitted
that the case differed from the one cited. In this case
the debt was contracted in England, and the defendant
went to Ireland. He held in his hand a letter to the
plaintiff, in which he stated that he did not intend to
take the benefit of the Act. This was about the time
that the notice of hearing was received.
Mr. LEWIS produced the adjudication of the Irish In-
solvent Court, and the schedule of the defendant, wherein
the debt due to the defendant was set forth.
Mr. Baron MARTIN was of opinion that the defendant
was entitled to be discharged, and, if the adjudication
now produced had not been properly obtained, that an
application must be made to the Irish Insolvent Debtors'
Court. His Lordship referred to the case quoted, and
expressed his concurrence with the opinion of Mr. Justice
Patteson.

The discharge was accordingly ordered.
=NELL V. PUDDY.

This was an action arising out of the alleged card
cheating case at Brighton. A summons was taken out
by Mr. Sill to ascertain whether the writ had been issued
with the authority of Mr. John Reason, as the attorney.
Tho several parties appeared before his Lordship, and
-Mr. Sleigh was counsel for the defendant.
Mr. SILL alleged that the writ was issued by a person
named Seal, in the name of Reason, and read an affi-
davit to that effect.

Mr. Rosson was in attendance, end had signed a de-
claration that the writ was issued with his authority.
The matter led to a long and warm discussion between
the parties.
Mr. Baron MARTIN eventually made an order that the
direction cf the statute had been complied with as now
made. His Lordship refused to stay the proceedings,
saying that an application could be made to the Court
in the ensuing term, on the allegation that the attorney
had allowed his name to be used.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 17.
(Before Mr. Commissioner HoLRoYD.)
IN RE WILLIAM STRANGE, 3IIN.
The bankrupt was a bookseller in Paternoster-row.
This was an examination meeting.
Mr. RIVOLTA said the accounts were very intricate,
and further time was required for their preparation. It
appeared from a statement of Mr. Butler, the bank-
rupt's accountant, that the debts are 1,0001; the assets
about 3001.
The Court granted an adjournment.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
LAMBETH.

Mr. Edward John Lee, of Elizabeth-place, Wynd-
ham-read, Camberwell, a compositor in the printing
establishment of Mr. Hansard, and who has behaved
with the utmost kindness and humanity towards the
widow and mutilated child of the late unfortunate
suicide and murderer Fawcett, waited on Mr.
Norton to solicit his worship to place his name at the
head of a list of subscribers to a fund to be raised for
the future education and support of the poor child
who had so narrowly escaped destruction at the hands
of her unfortunate parent.
Mr. Lee stated that on the day the frightful event
took place he was the first to enter the house of
the unfortunate man Fawcett, and on witnessing the
awful and distressing scene that presented itself, he
took Mrs. Fawcett and her daughter, a child
eight years of age, and who was at the time
shockinglymutilated, to his house and kept them there.
At the suggestion of several benevolent tradesmen in
the neighbourhood, and who had kindly assisted in it,
a subscription was set on foot for the benefit of the
widow of the deceased (who was left wholly unpro-
vided for) and her injured child, but the shock which
the poor woman experienced at losing her husband
and two children, under such frightful circumstances,
was more than she could sustain. She gradually
sank under its effects, and, notwithstanding the most
unremitting attention of her medical attendant, died
on the day before ("Wednesday). Aware of her aps
preaching dissolution, the poor woman begged several
times that he (Mr. Lee) and his wife would look to
her orphan children, and particularly the youngest,
who was in so helpless a state; and both his wife
and himself had solemnly promised her that
they would do so, and would use every endeavour to
see her properly provided for. With this object in
view, and having communicated the promise he had
made to the respectable tradesmen who had so
kindly come forward to assist him, they declared
their willingness to form themselves into a commit-
tee for the purpose of raising such a sum as would be
sufficient to provide for the poor child. The Rev.
Mr. De Crespigny, of Emmanuel Church, Camber-
well, had also kindly offered his assistance, and ha d

was also in service as a nursery girl, and at present
getting her own living; but the third, a child of 8 years,
was wholly unprovided for, and it was for her that
the committee was anxious to raise such a fund
as would provide means of subsistence. The poor
child had received such serious injuries on her hands
while struggling for her life with her maniac father,
that it was doubtful whether she would be enabled to
use them freely. At all events it would be a long
time before she could do so, and therefore she the
more required that assistance whichit

of inducing many other benevolent gentlemen to
follow your example.

WANDS WORTH.
Innis Scott, aged 24 years, a clerk in the Admiralty,
whose father also holds a situation under Government,
was brought beforo Mr. Poynter, on a charge of inter-
marrying with Temp Prance Caroline Bather, a widow, his
first wife, Caroline Scott, being still alive.
Mr. Haynes, solicitor, of Wandsworth, defended the
priscner.
James W. Burridge, police-constable, IGO V division,
produced a certificate of marriage between the prisoner
and a single woman named Caroline Storker. The cer-
fiesta was dated the 31st of December, 1845. The mar-
rigge was solemnized at Clapham Church. Witness
had not examined the church books to ascertain if the
certificate was a correct one. He received the certificate
in question from the prisoner's wife en Thursday evening.
Temperance Caroline Bather was then sworn. She
stated that she kept the Manor Arms, beer-shop, No. 1,
Langton-place, Manor-street, Clapham. She was mar-
ried to the prisoner on the 6th of February last, at the
parish church, Hammersmith. She was a widow.
The constable (Burridge) said the prisoner's first wife
lived within a few doors of Hammersmith Church at the
time the second marriage took place.

ADDRESS TO KOSSUTH:

The Council of the National Parliamentary Reform
Association, at a meeting held on Wednesday last,
unanimously adopted the following address to Louis
Kossuth :

"Your Excellency,—The Council of the National
Parliamentary Reform Association offer you their
sincere and cordial congratulations on your safe ar-
rival in this country.
" We esteem our nation honoured by your presence.
Britain has often sheltered those whom tyranny had
proscribed for their virtues, but, in in our apprehen-
sion, has never received a more illustrious or welcome
visitant.

" Whilst you remain upon our shores you will be
the people's guest, and when you leave them for that
land where a great and generous nation wait to echo
the shout of welcome that now ascends from the mil-
lions of these islands, you will be followed by our
heartfelt aspirations for your happiness among our
honoured brethren of the western world.
" We, and the multitudes of British reformat'
whom we represent, have watched your career with
the liveliest interest.

" We have rejoiced in your successes.
" Wo have lamented your disasters, but above all,
we have admired the integrity, the wisdom, and the
fortitude you have undeviatingly displayed through
a long and perilous struggle for your country's rights.
" In unison with every friend of justice and civili-
zation, we have been indignant at the cruelty and vin-
dictiveness of the influences which enforced the deten-
tion of your person, when the conflict was, for the
time, decided. But this detention, while it has ren-
dered infamous those at whose instance it was pro-
longed, has added to the glory of Kossuth, by demon-
strating that he knew how to endure, as well as to
contend for the noblest cause in which man can either
combat or suffer.

"Enjoying ourselves a large measure of freedom,
we sympathise with all who labour to achieve their
just political rights. What our ancestors did you
have nobly striven to do. We venerate their me-
mory, and regard you and your brave compatriots as
their kindred. The inheritance which those ances-
tors bequeathed to us is precious, and we are endea-
vouring to show ourselves worthy of it, by pressing on
to the full realization of the liberty of which they pro-
claimed the principle, and laid deep the foundation.
"In thus acting our only motive is an earnest de-
sire for human well-being—embracing first our
fellow-countrymen, but not confined within the
narrow boundary of our own land.
" Would you learn the object which, as an associa-
tion, we have in view, it is to give full scope to a free
and authoritative expression of the pcpular feeling
and opinion, that our Government may rest upon the
intelligence and will of the people.
"In this righteous object we have a firm belief
that we shall succeed. When this peaceful triumph
shall have been gained, the time will have arrived
when the sympathy with which the masses of
our people already share the hopes, the
fears, the gladness, and the sorrow of their brethren
throughout the world, will no longer be suppressed
in the Legislature, or misrepresented by official di-
plomacy, but will make itself beard in tones that shall
neither be misinterpreted nor disregarded.
"At whatever time and by whatever means. it shall

guy._

oTaaNO LlVES,—Yesterday morning information was
dtv, the West of England fire-station, Waterloo-
of a serious conflagration having broken out in
the town of Kentisbeer, four miles from Collnmpton, on the
previous day, and besides laying in ruins eight dwelling-
houses, was accompanied with the loss of two lives, an aged
lady named Mary Baker, and a man of the name of Churley,
who were both burned to death. The former, it wears, on
finding that the flames had reached her house, rushed in, in
order to save some valuable property, when she became
surrounded with flames, and, being unable to escape, she
fell a victim to the fury of the destructive element. The man
Churley was also in the act of removing some property from
one of the houses when a mass of burning material fell upon
him, and he speedily shared the same fate as the unfortunate
lath-. Both bodies were found by the firemen burnt almost
to cinders. The melancholy catastrophe has thrown a gloom
