IN RE WADE.

This bankrupt had earried on business as a paper
manufacturer at Postford Mills, near Guildford.
From the accounts by Messrs. Paul and Turner it
appears tbat the debts are about 1,0921., and liabilities,
1,0791.; but the property amounting to 1,5261. had been
seized under an execution. The chief cause of the bank-
ruptcy was the liability through a person named Molten-
den, with whom the bankrupt had been in partnership,'
and who forged duplicate bills of lading and converted
them to his own use, and for which offence he is now
suffering penal servitude.
Tne bankrupt passed without opposition.

POLICE INTET.T.TGENCE.— (This Day.)

MA RLBOROUGH-STREET.

A MILITARY GENTLEMAN'S INTER.VBRENCIL—Ann
Bingham was this morning charged with annoying male
pataengers, in Castle-street, in the neighbourhood of
Leicester-Fquare, while in a state of drunkenness, and
Captain Disney Roebuck with attempting to rescue her
from the custody of the police.
Polioe-constable C 50, Reeve, said he saw the female
the prisoner, who was drunk, at half-past two o'clock in
morning, laying bold of gentlemen. He desired her to
desist, but she continued, and laid hold of one,apparently
much to his annoyance, when he took her into
custody, On the road to the station with his
prisoner, the male defendant came up, and told
him to let her go. Of course be took no notice of
this, and he then accused him of using unnecessary
violence towards her, which he told him was not
required. As they proceeded the male defendant kept
dodging about them, at one time in front and then at
his side, so that witness found it necessary to call for'
the assistance of another policeman whom he met.
When opposite the Great. Globe iu Leicester-square
the male defendant seized hold of witeese'a arm and
exclaimed, "Blast you, if you don't leave the woman alone
I'll punch your head." Witness then gave the female
prisoner over to his comrade, and arrested the male
defendant for obstructing him in the execution of kis
duty, fur the purpose of rescuing as prisoner from
custody.
C 49 confirmed the beet witness's statement as re-
garJed part of the interference, the laying hold of the
constable's arm, and the threat.
The male defendant, having been called upon for his
answer, said the constable's statement was true, except
the words it was alleged ho had used. He saw the con-
stables taking the woman along with unnecessary
violence, and merely said, " Don't you think you will
gain your object better by refraining from such vio-
lence?" for they were pulling her by her arms, to the
danger of dfslocating them. Greatly to leis surprise, he,
on his remonstrating, was laid hold of, the constable
asking him who he was—Prince Albert, the Emperor
of the French, or an infernal Marquis
A. gentleman, formerly in the army, said he was with
defendant-, his friend, and certainly did not hear the
words attributed to him.
ur. Bingham said that was very probable, but be
believed the statement of the two constables, to one of
whom they were addressed, that they were used. He
would advise the defendant, when he was inclined to
interfere for the protection of suffering damsels, to let it
be for some worthier object than a druelken prostitute.
As a military man, he would think it very presumptuous
of the police interfering with him in escorting a prisoner.
He should, being the first time, discharge the female
prisoner, but fine the male defendant 40e.
