LAW DITELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fame.)

IN RE G. ADAMS-THE WARE AND HERTFORD BANK

To-clay was appointed for the adjourned examination
of this bankrupt, who had carried on business as a banker
at Ware and Hertford.

The accounts, prepared by Messrs. Thomas and Cop-
ley, have already been published, and the only ground
for an adjournment until to-day was fur an amendment
in the account, as the bankrrpt had placed a loan of
3,0001. down to personal expenditure and other items.
Johnstone had had transactions with a young gen-
tleman named Kay, whom he defrauded, and Kay,
when of age, filed a bill in Chancery against him, and
bankrupt was made a party, as some of the securities
had been deposited with him. The bankrupt, however,
did not like it to appear that he also bad been duped by
Johnstone, and put thelon to him down as Expenditure
and loss as above stated, but the assignees did not
impede any fraudulent intent to the bankrupt, as nothing
could be got from the estate of Johnstone who had be-
come bankrupt.

The amendment having now been made the bankrupt
passed his examination.

CITY SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.)
IMPORTANT TO BENEFIT SOCIETIES AND MEMBERS.—

DOOLEY v. BISHOP.

This was an action brought against the defendant, as
the secretary of the National Mutual Benefit Institu-
tion, Threadneedle-street, to rceover the sum of V. 13s.
41, the amount of a claim on the superauuation fund of
the institution.

Mr. Buchanan, Basinghall-street, appeared for the
defendant, and took an objection to the jurisdiction of
the Court on the ground that the subject was matter
for arbitration, and Mr. Tidd Pratt had given 'his opi-
nion to that effect. The facts of the case are of consi.
derable importance. It appears that the society had.been
established a great number of years, and plaintiff was ad-
mitted as a membgr in Feb., 1821. After some years he
declared on the fund.', and for some time received-20s. a-
week, but as he eventually became almost blind he was
placed on the superannuated list and received Si. per
week ; but in January, 1850, in consequence of the sick
fund being much reduced the plaintiff consented to take
3s. 4d. In 1855 it became necessary to make a further
reduction, and plaintiff, with other members, areed,
and the allowance was further reduced to 2i. 61-a week,
ani the question now was whether the reduction was to
date from the beginning or end of 185 p.
Mr. Buchanan said that the plaintiff ought in equity
to take the reduced allowance, for rahough he ha I only
paid in 401. he bad already received 1501. from the funds.
Mr. Bishop said that in 1850 it was discovered that
there had been an error in plaintiff's age, and be bad been
for years paying the lower rate, but no advantage was
taken of that fact, and he was retained on the books, and
he was not even called upon to pay up the deficiency, but
it was allowed to stand to be deducted from the money
which will become due at his death.

His Honour decided that he bad no jurisdiction, and
it was then agreed by all parties that the matter shoull
be referred to Mr Osgood, the clerk pf the court, and
that his award should be entered as the judgment of the
Court.

Mr. Osgood now gave his award in favour of the
plaintiff, as neither the origisal nor amended rules pro-
vided for the case, and there had not been any general
m6etina to rectify the omission. There was a rule as
to bow a surplus should be dealt with, bu% not how to
make up any deficiency.

His Honour said that it was the case with most of
these societies ; they were too liberal at first, and never
calculated on a deficiency—they went on all very well
while the members were twensivtwo and twenty-three,
but when they got to sixty, they all declared on the funds
at once.

Judgment was entered for the plaintiff, but Mr.
Osgood said he did not consider it a case for costa Exlept
for those out of pocket.
