LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.)
BANBORUPT PETITION-IN RE THE HOROZEACH COAL

COMPANY.

This is a petition and appeal from an order of Mr. Com-
missioner Funblanque rcfusiag to grant a winding. up order
against this company under the New Bankruptcy Act, 19
and 20 Victoria, cap. 47, section 67, in respect that the
petitioners were not contributors to the company. A com-
pany was in course of formation for carrying on mining
operations in the Forest of Dean. A sufficient number of
subscribers was not obtained, and the landlord refused to
grant a lease of his mines. Nothing was done for upwards
of a year, and the petitioners asked for a winding-up order
in terms of the statute.
Mr. De Gex was heard for the appellants.

An action at law was tried at Nisi Prius in London as to
the validity of the calls made before Mr. Baron Martin,
which resulted in a non-suit. A rule nisi was afterwards
obtained, and it is about to be discussed.

The Lord Chancellor allowed the petition to stand over
until the rule nisi is disposed of by the Court of Exchequer.

APPEAL-PEARCE Y. LINDSAY.

This is an appeal from an order of Vice-Chancellor Sir
William Page Wood in taking a series of complicated bro-
kerage accounts of commission on freights of ships sailing
from the ports of London and Liverpool to and from the
United States of America.

Sir Hugh M'Calroont Cairns, Q.C., is now being heard
for the appellants.

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
(Before Sir C. Cresswell.)
GWILLEN V. OWILLEN.-JUDGMENT:

This was a testamentary suit, instituted for setting aside
the will of a Mr. Gwillen, on the ground that it was not
duly attested. It appeared that the will was alleged to
have been witnessed by two old ladies on the 31st March,
1856, who stated that they were at the house of a brother
of the testator on the day the will was executed, and that
the latter was staying there at the date in question. They
did not recollect having signed the instrument, but ad-
mitted that the signatures attached to it were in their
handwriting.

Sir C. Cresswell said that he had consulted a case decided
by the judicial committee, and cited by learned counsel,
which was much stronger against the due execution of a
will than the present case, but which was in favour of the
validity of the document. Ho did not consider it was
necessary to have direct testimony to prove the attestation
to the which in this case was fully established.
Probate of will granted, and costs of both parties directed
to be paid out of the estate.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS D.,117.1

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THREA.TENINCk BEN CAENT WITH THE KNlTE.—Ed-
ward Donnelly, described as a painter, was charged before
Mr. Bingham with breaking two glass globes and threaten-
ing to stab Mr. Benjamin Caunt, of the Coach and Horses,
St. Martin's-lane.

Mr. Caunt said the prisoner came into his house on the
previous morning half drunk and broke two glass globes.
Between six and seven in the evening he came again and
made use of the vilest language, and struck a man with a
poker. He put the prisoner out, but he came in again,
and putting his head over the counter threatened that if he
(Mr. Caunt) showed his head that he " would use the
knife," but did not exhibit one.
In answer to Mr. Bingham, Mr. Caunt said he did not
exactly go in bodily fear, neither was ho frightened of the
prisoner, but he did not like the knife, and thought he must
have protection.
Mary Bradshaw, servant to Mr. Caunt, proved the
damage, and said she felt certain the prisoner broke the
glasses wilfully, behaving very violently at the time.
Mr. Bingham said he should order the prisoner to find
ono surety to keep the peace towards the complainant, and
he had better pay the damage.

CAUTION TO FENALES.—THE INQUIRY DODGE.—.-Pat-
rick Collins, a young man, was charged with picking the
pocket of Mrs. Mary Ann Gale, of 1, Harrington-street, of
a purse containing property of no very great value.
The prosecutrix said the prisoner and another lad came
up to her in Davis-street, Berkeley-square, and while the
other lad was asking her the way to Manchester-square,
the prisoner took out her purse. She at once taxed him
with doing so, when he started off, she following and call-
ing out, " stop thief," till he was stopped.
The purse having been produced by a cabman named
Godwin (10,784), who picked it up, near where prisoner had
run, at the corner of Three King's-yard. The prisoner was
remanded.
