(Before Mr. Commissioner HOLROYD.)

IN RE GEORGE FIELDING, OF 'FIUME, OXFORD.
The bankrupt, an ironmonger, in extensive business,
was opposed by Mr. Edwin James, for the assignees, en
the ground that the accounts were not properly rendered.
His HONOUR adjourned the further hearing, but or-
dered that the solicitor to the assignees should furnish
the bankrupt's accountant with a written notice of what
they required in good time before next examination.

MARYLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.)
DISORDERLY PAUPERS.—Three young women, named
Tutner, Elliott, and Knott, were charged with riotous
conduct in the Marylebone Workhouse.
Mr. James Jones, the master of the workhouse, stated
that about eight o'clock last night he was told that the
defendants were burning something. He proceeded to
the females' ward and saw them burning the stuffing of
their beds. They had broken up some of the furniture
in the ward and were burning portions of it. Elliott
threw the burning embers about and exclaimed " We
will burn all the old devils (meaning the inmates) in
their beds."

They were committed for twenty-one days.
Two other girls, named Pen edd and Sexton, were
also charged with riotous conduct in the workhouse.
Mr. Jones stated, that when he was giving the
above-named females in charge, last night, the pri-
soners obtained a ladle, and Sexton smashed twelve
squares of glass with it, and Penfold four squares. They
were committed for six weeks, the extended period under
the amended Poor-law Aot.

SAVINGS' BANKS.—It is believed that some parties
well conditioned in life have invested money in more
than one savings' bank, and which they know is con-
trary to the law. We believe a very strict eye will now be
kept upon depositors, and if any are discovered having
investments in more than one bank for savings, they will
have no cause to complain in having to forfeit their
money. These are the parties who ought not to have
deposited in those institutions, which were established
for the humble classes, and it is a great discredit to those
who have committed the abuses they have done. We
know of one savings' bank where the trustees and ma-
nagers intend, after the 20th of the present month, to give
those parties who ought not to have deposited a notice
to withdraw their investments. Very proper discontent
is already manifesting itself (as was expected would be
the case), in consequence of the reduction of interest,
which is to take place after the 20th instant.
THE ITALIAN OPERA AT PARIS.—M. Patel, the
manager of the Paris Italian Opera, is placed in an awk-
ward predicament by Victor Hugo's persistance in in-
terdicting the performance of Lucrezia Borgia and Ernani,
at Les Italiens ; and the author of Norma has also for-
bidden the directeur to represent his opera. M. Fate!
is at the same time involved in law proceedings with the
well-known composer Conradin Kreutzer, which creates
much attention at the present moment in the Parisian
musical circles. The litigation is owing to an agree-
ment having been entered into between the manager and
composer, to the effect that Kreutzer's opera, Line Nuit
a Grenade, was to be represented at the Paris Italian
Opera this season. The parts being destined for Mdlle.
Nissen, Mario, and Ronconi, which were subsequently
changed by mutual consent, to be sung by Mario, Far-
nasari, and Mad. Persiani. The opera is now in re-
hearsal, but M. Fatel has allotted the characters to
Corelli, Fornasari, and Mdlle. Manara, to which M.
Kreutzer objects, and has consequently brought the
matter before the Tribunal of Commerce of La Seine.
The example set by Sir Harry Verney, in allowing
his tenants to shoot over their respective farms, is the
theme of conversation in all companies. The farmers'
tables ring with praises to Sir harry. None rejoice
more than the Duke of Buckingham's tenants, because
none are greater sufferers than they are, from the de-
struction they yearly witness and feel done themselves
by the enormous abundance of game. No person mute•
quainted with a nobleman's preserves can form any idea
of the injury hares and partridges do the whole country.
