These bankrupts had carried on business as ship
chandlers and provision merchants, in Savage-gardens.
Mr. Bradlaugh appeared for Sterne, who had petitioned
for leave to surrender under his bankruptcy, having been
proclaimed an outlaw for non-surrender. The petition set
forth the several facts, and the defendant alleged that he
had been induced to abscond by his partner.
His Honour said that was no excuse ; every man was re-
sponsible for his own acts.

Mr. Solomon objected to the bankrupt being allowed to
surrender. He had been abroad for 12 months, and now
came back without a farthing for the creditors, and before
he started he had gone to several of the debtors and got all
he could.

Mr. Bradlaugh said it would be beneficial to the estate

the bankrupt had protection, as he would assist in get-

ting in the accounts, but the fact was his partner kept the
books and left him in the dark, so that when he left he had
no idea of bankruptcy.

His Honour—That is absurd. A man deliberately col-
lects money, then runs away, and afterwards says he had
no idea of bankruptcy ; but there were none so deaf as those
who would not hear.

Mr. Bradlaugh—The bankrupt came back as quickly as
possible when he heard of the bankruptcy.
His Honour—But not till he had spent all the money.
As the creditors object, I do not think it is a case in which
I ought to interfere. The bankrupt had better at once
place himself in communication with them, and if possible
induce them to consent.

BRITISH POSSESSIONS.

The case was ultimately adjourned for a week for that
purpose.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.( THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAPTURE OF A MANUFACTURER OF BASE COlN.—Thos,
Ferryman, a shoemaker, and Ann Ferryman, were charged
before Mr. Bingham, by Mr. James Brannan, late an in-
spector of police, with having in their possession 1,5 coun-
terfeit sixpences, 10 groats, and one half-crown, a galvanic
battery, several files, a quantity of white metal, and: all the
other necessary implements used for the purpose of pre
paring counterfeit coin.
Mr. Bollard, from the office of the solicitor of the Mint,
appeared for the prosecution.
Mr. James Brannan said—ln consequence of ins true-
Lions he received he went to the residence of the prisoner,
3, Crown-place, Soho, and having left some officers
outside, proceeded to the room of the prisoner, accom-
panied by Inspector Brian, of the G ltdivision, and
Brannan 21 G, and having effected an entrance
by forcing the door found the prisoner in bed.
He said he had come to pay him a visit, and the male pri-
soner said, " Well, Mr. Brannan, you won't find. much.
You may find sufficient to give me a ' stretch' (a twelve-
month)." He then, assisted by the other officers, searched
the place, and found several counterfeit coins, at td on a
shelf in the room a galvanic battery jar, containing a
quantity of solution of acid used in coating counterfeit coin,
and in a box a galvanic battery complete, with a wire at-
tached, the end of which had been dipped in the solution,
several files, plaster of Paris, and all the other implements
used in the manufacture of counterfeit coin.
The Solicitor for the Mint requested a remand, which
was immediately granted.
Mr. Brannan said he believed the woman had roc ently
been convicted.
