LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RN MARSDEN AND MARSDEN.

CAUTION TO BANKRUPTS.—JUDGMENT ON CERTIFICATE•
—These bankrupts, Anthony and W►lliam Marsden, bad
carried on business as shawl and mantle warehousemen,
in High-street, Islington. The judgment on the certiti-
cats of Anthony Marsden was adjourned, in order
that his Honour might consider the facts. The
bankrupt was charged with not having kept
proper books, and also, with fraudulently
disposing of part of his property. It appeared that the
bankrupt had insured his stock by two policies, one for
1,0001. and one for 8001., but he had not kept any stook
book, nor could he in any way account as to the value
of the stock, but on a fire occurring on the premises he
had accepted 8001. and the sal►age from the insurance
office, and he had not got a bankers or cash book. He
had alse sold off all his furniture to a person whom he
only knew by name.

His Honour gave a lengthened judgment, and son
eluded by stating that he had some to the conclusion
that the case came within the 4th and 9th clauses of the
256 section, and that the bankrupt had neglected to
keep proper books, and omitted entries with the view
of concealing the true state of his affairs, and that he
had fraudulently disposed of his property ; be therefore
adjudged that the certificate be suspended for 12
mmnths without protection, but with liberty for the
bankrupt to apply should he have been in custody for
six months.

THE RE-EL ROTIONS.

KING'S LYNN.
Somewhat to the surprise of the electors, Lord
Stanley's address to them was not issued until Tues-
day. It is to the following effect :
" TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF KING'S LYNN.
" Gentlemen,—Having vacated my seat by the
acceptance of office, I shall in a few days have the
honour of presenting myself to you for re-election,
if you still hold me worthy of a confidence which I
trust I have done nothing to forfeit.
" Several opportunities have occurred during the
last few years of making known to you my opinions
on the most important questions of the day. Thome
opinions remain unchanged, and to carry them out
will be the object of my public life.
"I shall shortly wait upon you in person, when
it will be in my power more fully to state the
grounds on which I intend to solicit your support.
"In the meantime, I remain, Gentlemen,
" Your obliged and obedient servant,
" STANLEY.

"London, March 1."

NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE.
The nomination of a member for North Stafford-
shire, consequent on the accept ince of office by Mr.
Adderlty, has been fixed for Monday next at Staf-
ford. No opposition is anticipated. As the
business of the assizes commences the same morn-
ing, it is likely the courts will not open until
the election formalities have been gone throuA
They will probably be conducted by Mr. Hand,
tha Undec Sheriff, as Philip Williams,
Esq., has made arrange cents for inaugurating his
shrievalty in a mode befitting the position he occu-
pies in South Staffordshire. The preparations are
on a scale of almost f u lal magnificence and extent,
involving, in the first plice, the breakfasting of
some 800 of his friends in a pavilion trecfed r
the purpogie at Gospel Oak, near Tipton, and the
feasting of some thousands of the workmen em-
ployed by himself azd his brothers. As for the
procession, no such shrieval cavalcade will Lave
ever been seen in the county.—Birminghain

NORTH LEICESTERSHIRE.
Contrary to all expectation, Mr. Frewen has re-
signed, and Lord J. Manners will therefore be
elected without opposition.

MARKET NEWs.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Scarcely any English wheat was received fresh up to
our market today coastwise and by land carriage. Good
and fins samples sold to a moderate extent, at full prices;
but all other kinds were very dull.
The show of foreign wheat was tolerably good, but so
little business was transacted in it that the quotations were
almost nominal.
Fine barley was firm, at full currencies. Other kinds
ipported previous rates.
For malt the inquiry was wholly retail, at late rates.
There was a moderate demand for oats, at full prices.
Beans, peas, and flour realised Monday's currency.

day, Elizabeth Butler, aged fifteen, a pupil teacher, at
Trinity Schools, Derby, committed' suicide by throwing
herself into the river Derwent. In her copy-book was found
an entry bidding all her friends good-bye, and stating that
she had made up her mind to do away with herself, as she
a I had a quarrel with Miss -, and that the latter was
always doing her some injury. She asked the forgiveness
of her friends, and hoped God would also forgive her,--

Ti tai MURDER IN CHES;7IRE.

Richard. Bolton and John Dunks, the two men
• suspected of firing the fatal skots at Mr. Ackrovd's
under-gamekeepers, have been apprehended. Ve
learnl.-hat the Cheshire police had obtained a clue
to thei r whereabouts, and Mr. Laxton communi-
eatcd w ith Mr. Davies, the snperintendent of police
at Wine anton, Somersetshjre. It was known that
a man called Straightup, but whose real name is
Yardley, had some time ago absconded from Staf-
fordshire to avoid prosecution for poaching, and,
having got work as a railway navvy, he had
written for Bolton to join Mm, there being plentyof game in the neighbourhood. On the TuesdaY
night following the murder, Bolton and .Daeks
-were known to.. leave their hiding-place, near
Handley, in the Potteries, and make their escape.
The police got hold of further information, and
in consequence of a communication sent to
Superintendent:Davies by SupE rintendent. Laxton,
li`r,r.r. Davies, accompanied by two police officers,
we. nt at 5 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, the 16th
inst. , to a mud hovel on some railway works at
Stew ell, in Somersetshire, on the borders of
Wilt-
shire. Mr. Davies left his two officers outside,
and on entering found Straightup and Bol-
ton, and. Danks. He. called. to Danks to come for-
ward, an order, which. was at once obeyed, and he
was instantly handcuffed, a proceeding which so
astonished him that he fell back in a half-fainting
state. 80l ton was then called forward, and was
also handcuJed in the same expeditious manner,
without the tilightest show of resistance, and on
being charged -with the murder of which they are
suspected to be' guilty neither of them made any
reply. On the night preceding their apprehension
both prisoners hat I been out poaching. On Friday',
the 17th, they wer 'e safely lodged .in the leek-up
at Nantwich, and o. n Saturday were formally re-
manded until Tuesday last. They have twice been
examined before the Rev. Mr. Folliott, at Stapeley,
and are now remand'cd until Monday next. The
examinations are cons ucted in private, as the au-
thorities do not feel th graselves justified in at pre-
sent making public the itas‘e they have against the
prisoners. Yesterday (Thursday) Mr. H. Churton
met the jury on the adjourned inquest, at the
Boar's Head Inn, Walghert`on, but in consequence
of the case being incompjete before the magistrates,
no evidence was offered, and the inquiry was fur-
ther adjourned until Thursday, the 30th instant.

ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE.

The Belfast Banner gives the following account
of an attempt to assassinate a respectable farmer.
The motive is unexplained, but it appears to have
had no bearing on the agrarian or any other con-
spiracy :
" On Saturday evening last, between the hours
of 8 and 9 o'clock, in the hitherto peaceable town-
land of Hillhall, near Lisburn, a most atrocious at-
tempt was made to murder William Wilson, a
highly respectable and esteemed farmer. On the
above-mentioned evening, while his manservant
was in Lisburn, and he was alone, a man unknown
to him, called upon him for a newspaper. This per-
son had been engaged with a neighbouring smith,
named Scott, for about five weeks, and is supposed
to be a ticket-of-leave man. On receiving
the paper he said he should return it in half-
an-hour. When he came to return it, Mr. Wilson
was foddering his cattle, in the absence of his man-
servant. He was accosted by a voice, You are
suppering up ;' and while he was in the act of fas-
tening a rail, his back being turned, his assailant
seized a massive grape,' and struck him a despe-
rate blow on the head, felling him to the ground.
However, as he was a robust and strong man he
pulled the ruffian to the ground by his legs before
the second blow was given. Then a fearful contest
ensued, and, though Mr. Wilson must have suffered
weakness from a copious effusion of blood, he suc-
ceeded in overmastering the fellow, whom he tied
in the house, where he remained until the autho-
rities arrived. The doctor was in immediate attif.-
dance, and good hopes are entertained that Mr.
Wilson will soon recover."

THE GREAT CHESS MATCH.—Mr. Morphy and
M. Anderssen continued their match on Wednesday, play-
ing two games. The first was an execs singly short 0110,
M. Anderssen losing his queen early, and the moves ex-
tending to only 21. Mr. Morphy consequently war it.
They then commenced a second game, in which the Ame-
rican player was also the victor. The games now stand
thus—Mr. Murphy has won two, M. Anderssen one, and
one has been a draw,

THE MURDER IN CHESHIRE.

Richard Bolton and John Danks, the two men
suspected of firing the fatal shots at Mr. Ackroyd's
under-gamekeepers, have been apprehended. We
learn that the Cheshire police had obtained a. clue
to their whereabouts, and Mr. Laxton communi-
cated with Mr. Davies,the superintendent of police
at Wincanton, Somersetshire. It was known that
a man called Straightup, but whose real name is ,
Yardley, had some time ago absconded from Staf-
fordshire to avoid prosecution for poaching, and
having got work as a railway navvy, he had
.
written for Bolton to join him, there being plenty'
of game in the neighbourhood. On the Tuesday
night following the murder, Bolton and Banks
were known to leave their hiding-place, near
Handley, in the Potteries, and make their escape.
The police got hold of further information, and
in consequence of a communication sent to
Superintendent Davies by Superintendent Laxton,
Mr. Davies, accompanied by two police officers,
went at 5 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, the 16th
inst., to a mud hovel on some railway works at
Stowell, in Somersetshire, on the borders of Wilt-
shire. Mr. Davies left his two officers outside,
and on entering found Straightup and Bol-
ton, and Banks. He called to Banks to come for-
ward, an order which was at once obeyed, and he
was instantly handcuffed, a proceeding which so
astonished him that he fell back in a half-fainting
state. Bolton was then called forward, and was
also handcuffed in the same expeditious manner,
without the slightest show of resistance, and oil
being charged with the murder of which they are
suspected to be guilty neither of them made any
reply. On the night preceding their apprehension
both prisoners had been out poaching. On Friday,
the 17th, they were safely lodged in the lock-up
at Nantwich, and on Saturday were formally re-
manded until Tuesday last. They have twice been
examined before the Rev. Mr. Folliott, at Stapeley,
and are now remanded until Monday next. The
examinations are conducted in private, as the au-
thorities do not feel themselves justified in at pre-
sent, making public the case they have against the
prisoners. Yesterday (Thursday) Mr. H. Churton
met the jury on the adjourned inquest, at the
Boar's Head Inn, Walgherton, but in consequence
of the case being incomplete before the magistrates,
no evidence was offered, and the inquiry was fur-
ther adjourned until Thursday, the 30th instant.

MR. DISBRI.:LI IN THE HO USE OF

CO 21131 ONS.

As a parliamentary orator, Mr. Disraeli stands,
forth, in some respects, almost without a rival
among his contemporaries. It is only, however,
upon very rare occasions that those prominent
powers in debate are conspicuously manifested.
Under the influence of ordinary circumstances, his
manner in speaking is cold, impassive, cautious,
marked at times even by an almost painful delibera-
tion. Even when most earnest, he scarcely ever
indulges in very animated gesticulation. His eyes
downcast, his brows raised, his voice low but sin'
gularly clear in its articulation, he has the appear:
ance of one who is addressing the house by an effort
of condescension, with an undisguised air of super-
cilious in differctice.
Irritated by a rash taunt, roused by the inuni"
pence of some critical juncture, incited unwonted ro;
sure of an emergency, or goaded by an
display of opposition,—Disraeli, in voice, Dol.',
manner, in his every movement, in his whole ar
-pearance, is like one suddenly transformed. 111
delivery at these times we have heard likened, and
not inaptly, to that of 4dmund Kean, the trage"
dian. A glance of the eye, an inflection upon a
syllable, a sudden gesture towards an antagonist'
something as slight altogether in itself as a glance'
or a tone, or a movement, has lent a barb to the,
arrow of invective, suffusing upon the winged steal
as it flies the poison of a Acadly derision. It is thus
that has been driven home to the heart of some,
formidable foe many a rankling dart of scorn andridicule. The cutting jibe, for example, inflieteu,
only last session upon the Whigs, when taunted
upon the morrow of their ignominious overthrow,
as an " obsolete oligarchy ;" or, years ago, that
still more pitiless alliterative allusion to " the
catastrophe of a sinister career," completing tli.f,
peroration of one of his most memorable outburst'
of vituperative eloquence. The rhetorician, here:
is also a consummate actor—and it is the highest
kind of acting : it is upon the stage of history, lc
the arena of Parliament.--The Derby Ministry

THE MILITARY _RIOT AT WOOLWICH

WOOLWICH, FRIDAY EVENING.
The most energetic measures have been taken by
the commandant, Major-General Sir W. F. Wil_
Hams, to prevent a repetition of the disgraceful
scenes whieh occurred here last night. This after-
noon the troops in garrison were assembled by
order of the commandant, and informed that any
soldier apprehended for creating a disturbance in the
town would be tried by court•martial, and dealt
with by military law.l lA. deputation of tradesmen
residing in those streets in which business was
suspended by the riot of the previous night waited
upon Major-General Sir W. F. Williams in the
course of the day, to represent the serious injury,
inflicted upon them in consequence of being com-
pelled to close their shops during business hours.
Major-General Williams, in reply, assured the
deputation of his earnest desire to preserve order
and maintain that good feeling which had hitherto
prevailed between the military and civilian popu-
lation. He should take immediate repressive
measures, and orders had already been given that
pickets should remain in the streets from sunset to
sunrise.

Several soldiers are now in hospital under
treatment fcr wounds received during the melee of
Thursday night, but all are expected to recover.
It appears that during the height of the riot in
High-street, a number of Antrim Rifles belonging
to the picket of that corps broke away from the
ranks in order to join the combatants, when the
lieutenant in command drew his sword and com-
pelled them to return. A sergeant of Artillery
was made prisoner, and will be tried by court-
martial, for a desperate attack upon this picket,
and during the contest an Artilleryman received a
fearful bayonet wound. As a proof of the bad
feeling which prevails between the regulars and the
militia, this afternoon, at 4 o'clock, the sentry on
duty at the main gate of Woolwich Dockyard,
being an Antrim Rifleman, was assaulted by three
Artillerymen. Police-Constable Wright, on duty
at the gate, immediately called a picket from the
militia guard-room, who captured one of the
offenders, after a smart• chase, and he was conveyed
to the Royal Artillery Barracks.
