THIS DAY'S NEWS.

BANKRUPTCY.--(THIS DAY.)
(Before Sir C. F. WILLIAMS.)
IN RE C. C. FOOTE.

In this case the insolvent, an attorney, and sometimes
an attorney's clerk, applied for his final order.
Mr. STURGEON opposed for creditors to large amounts.
In the insolvent's former account he had put down a per-
son named Harvey as a debtor in 6001., but in his
amended schedule he had brought him in a creditor to
the amount of 2001., thus making a clear difference of
800/. The creditors prayed time to investigate the
matter.

Sir C. WILLIAMS would give any time the creditors
might require. Such a system was truly disgraceful.
He found the debts stated at 6,0001., and he supposed the
assets, 1,2501., would not produce so many shillings.
The Solicitor to an opposing creditor said the debts
are placed in the amended schedule at 13,0001.
Sir C. WILLIAMS, after again, in the most strong lan-
guage, characterising the system adopted in this case as
a vile one, deferred the further hearing of the case for a
month, in order to give the creditors full time for inves-
tigation.

INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY)
Mr. Commissioner HARRIS sat this morning for the
purpose of hearing applications for bail.
Although the usual hour for the sitting of the Court is
ten o'clock, the Learned Commissioner did not take his
seat on the Bench until nearly half-past eleven, to the
annoyance of those in attendance upon business.

IN RE GEORGE WINTER.
In this case the insolvent applied on his petition to be
discharged upon bail until the day appointed for his final
hearing.
It appeared from his schedule that the amount of
debts exceeded 2,5001., for 8001. of which it was stated
that he received no consideration, while the sum for
which he was arrested was only 40/. upon an accommo-
dation bill drawn by a person named Boland, and ac-
ceepted by the insolvent. A great many other bills had
been accepted by him in the way of accommodation, for
which he never got any consideration.

The Learned CommissioNEli commented strongly upon
the insolvent's conduct in accepting accommodation bills
when he was so deeply indebted to others. Such a
course could be only described as cheating his creditors.
Ho should not accept bail in this case.
The insolvent was accordingly taken back to the
Queen's prison.

In the matter of Richard Roberts, the application of
the insolvent, who was confined in Dolgelly gaol, to be
liberated upon bail, was rejected upon the ground of in-
sufficiency in the proffered sureties.
The application of John Whatford, an insolvent con-
fined in Northampton gaol, was rejected upon similar
grounds.

RICHMOND and WEST-END JUNCTION
RAILWAY.
The Provisional Committee of this Railway have the satisfaction
to announce to the Shareholders and the public that arrangements
are now concluded with the Directors of the South- Western Corn.
pang, upon terms highly advantageous to the interests of this Corn-
pany. The South-Western Company have guaranteed their
friendly co-operation and support to this Company, both in obtain.
ing the Parliamentary sanction to this undertaking, and in carrying
into execution the plans proposed for securing to this Company the
best terminus it is possible to obtain in the metropolis.

meet all the expenses that have to be incurred according to the
most liberal estimate; and the Subscribers' Contracts, with other
necessary deeds, have been extensively signed by the holders of the
Scrip, both in London and the country.
The following are the resolutions passed at a General Meeting
of the Provisional Committee, held at the office, on the 23d of
October instant, relative to the negotiations which have been for
some time carried on with the South-Western Company :
It was resolved—" That the proposals now made by the South-
Western Company are, in the opinion of this meeting, equitable
and advantageous to the interests of this Company, and that the
same be approved and adopted by this Committee."
Sir W. CLAY having left the Chair,
It was resolved unanimously—" That the thanks of this meet-
ing be given to Sir W. Clay for his kind services in the chair at
the meetings of this Committee."
W. CHADWICK, Esq., having been called to the Chair,
The following resolutions were unanimously agreed to:—
" That it be referred to the Sub. Committee to carry into effect
the present agreement with the South-Western Company as soon as
possible."
" That the best thanks of this Committee are due to W. Chad.
wick, Esq., for his unremitted exertions in bringing the negotia.
tions with the South. Western Company to a prosperous conclusion,
which circumstance is not only the surest mode of securing to this
Company success in Parliament, but, in the opinion of this Com-
mittee, will ensure a more certaint amount of profit."

IN RE THOMAS HOWILLS.

This insolvent had been before the Court on a former
occasion, when the hearing was adjourned, in order that
he might file a fresh schedule, and account for a large
sum of money which was left him as a legacy.
In the schedule which he now produced in Court he
accounted for the disposition of this money, by stating
that he spent it in " folly, extravagance, and dissipa-
tion," and being continually drunk, he lodged it in his
brother's hands, and used to draw it from him in 51. and
10/. at a time ; but he did not recollect how he sent it.
He was remanded for four calendar months from the
date of his vesting order.

PROGRAMME OF THE CEREMONIAL OF HER
MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE CITY ON THE
OPENING OF TuE NEW EXCHANGE.
A very inaccurate statement of the ceremonial to
be observed on her Majesty's visit to the City having
appeared in the public papers, without the sanction of
the Civic authorities, we have received permission from
the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor to make public the
following programme of the ceremonial, of which her
Majesty has been pleased to signify her gracious
approbation. It was communicated to the Lord
Mayor by Sir James Graham, accompanied by the
following letter

Whitehall, Oct. 21, 1844.

My Lord,—With reference to your Lordship's note of
the 12th instant, I have the honour to inform your Lord-
ship, that her Majesty has been graciously pleased to
signify her approbation of the ceremonial proposed to be
observed upon her Majesty's visit to the Corporation of
London on the occasion of opening the New Exchange.
I have the honour to be, my Lord,
Your Lordship's obedient servant,

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.

NEW COURT.
• (Before Mr. Baron ROLFE.)
Jane Hague, aged 44, was placed at the bar, charged
with feloniously wounding Ellen Bryant, with intent to
do her some grievous bodily harm.
It appeared from the evidence, that the prosecutrix
and another woman, named Mann, were very hotly en-
gaged in trying who had the hardest fists and the softest
head, and the prisoner, who, it appeared, had been en-
gaged in the no less unfeminine occupation of killing
time in the gin. shop all day, came up to where Mrs.
Bryant and Mrs. Mann were having their " set-to."
Although sha was very drunk," her sense of delicacy
was so acute, that she " was shocked," to use her own
phraseology, " at seeing two women like them fighting
with each other." Accordingly, in order that the affair
might be brought to a satisfactory termination, and to
establish the " cordial understanding," she struck Mrs.
Bryant with a bed-key, which she happened to have in
her hand, over the left eye. It is true that Mrs. Hague
gave a different version of the matter, and represented
that Mrs. Bryant was scratched in consequence of strik-
ing her own head against the key.
Under the direction of his LORDSHIP, the jury were
of opinion that it was not probable the prosecutrix, be-
sides being engaged with Mrs. Mann, who, it would ap-
pear, was " man enough" for her, would seek an addi-
tional adversary in " cold iron," found her guilty of the
assault, without intent.
His LORDSHIP sentenced the prisoner to three weeks'
imprisonment, she having been already confined seven
weeks.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
Samuel Brown was brought up, charged with attempt
ing to pass a bad half-crown, under the following cir-
cumstances :—Mr. Henry Curtis stated that the pri-
soner, with two others, came into the tap-room of his
house, the Royal Oak, last night. He called for a pot of
beer, and when the waiter took it in he saw a half-crown
lying on the table. The prisoner pointed to it, and said
" Take it out of that." The waiter brought the half-
crown out, and it was found to be a bad one.
The prisoner said be did not put down the half-crown,
it was another young man.
Mr. JARDINE said that under the circumstances he was
fearful no case could be made out against the prisoner.
Mr. Curtis said he asked the prisoner three distinct
times to point out the young man that had put down the
half-crown, but he refused to do so.
Mr. JARDINE said this altered the case. The prisoner
had been very artful in his attempt, but he (Mr. Jar-
dine) should remand him to Monday, for the solicitor to
the Mint to attend.—(This is a new " dodge" on the
part of " smashers.")

CLERXEN WELL.
Mary Crawley was brought up on a charge of obstruct-
ing the footway by hawking a busket of fruit.
Police Sergeant 10 N said the prisoner was hawking
the fruit. lie had cautioned her repeatedly. She re-
mained in the same spot though he desired her to
move on.

The girl (crying) said she was endeavouring to sell a
little bit of fruit, and that she moved on when the pollee
constable told her.

The policeman said his only object was to protect the
public, who were greatly annoyed by the nuisance.
Mr. COMBE discharged her with a caution.

Wednesday, Elizabeth Lewis, a tall woman, was
charged by Mr. James Lewis, veterinary surgeon, of
Long-yard, Lamb's-conduit-street, with stabbing him.
The prisoner, who was charged on a warrant, was
so violent towards Bayson,' the officer, that he w4s,
compelled to convey her to 'the Court in 'a cabriolet. _
It appeared that the parties had been married for
twelve years, and the defendant was addicted to in-
temperance, and disposed of property to indulge her
propensity. On Sunday last complainant remon-
strated with her on the impropriety of her conduct,
and the bad example she afforded to her children,
when she seized a fork, and running ;towards the
door, stabbed him in the babk, and caused three
wounds by its prongs. Ile turned round to reproach
her, when she seized another fork and stabbed him
under the right shoulder. She was secured, and wit-
ness was taken to the hospital, where his wounds
were dressed. She had before maltreated him, and he
felt his life to be in danger from her violence.

The prisoner, in her defence said, the complainant
abused her in a shameful manner. He struck her
with a stick, and threw a chair at her.

Complainant said, he held up the chair to save
himself from the fork. He did not touch her before
she stabbed him. He was still under the hands of the
surgeon.
Mr. COMBS (to the prisoner)—You must be com-
mitted till Friday next.

Prisoner (crying) —Oh, pray do not send me to
prison ; do not disgrace me.
Mr. COMBE—You should have thought of that be-
fore you used such a weapon.—She was then com-
mitted.

accused of having causedli II ..akiiri&J-Wt singular
manner, and which raises a new qurstion corjudicial ju-
riprudence, is in Horsemonger-lane gaol, thither re-
manded by Mr. Trail, of Union-hall, until this day, in
order that he may be guided by tho result of the inquiry
in the Coroner's court.. Deceased was in her 36th year,
and her husband in his 22d.
Mrs. Baker, landlady of deceased, examined yesterday,
said she saw her on the evening of the 3d instant, and
that. she was then "nicely." On the following morning
she saw her again, and she was then in a state of insen-
sibility. On Thursday last she became conscious, and
called witness, and said, " Oh, my back, my Wyk; Henry
has kicked me." On Saturday, about an hour b, fore her
death, she again "rallied," and made use of similar ex-
presi.iens to her father, in the presence of Mr. Fisher, a
surgeon, and the nurses. _ _ _

Mr. Baker, husband of the last witness, corroborated
her testimony as to the expressions uttered by deceased
on Thursday 1-st implicating her husband.
The CORONER, this being the whole of the evidence,
told the jury that the expressions of deceased relative to
the violence of her husband were not evidence unless she
uttered them in his presence, or when she thought she
was dying. As it was not proved that she so uttered
them, he begged the jury to dismiss them from their
minds.

The room was then cleared, and to the astonizhment
of everybody the jury deliberated for seven hours, that
is from five to twelve o'clock, and even then 'had not
come to a conclusion.

(LATEST PARTICULARS. THIS DAT.)
The Jury, at two o'clock this morning, returned their
verdict, which will not, however, be made public till to-
morrow at one o'clock, when tho witnesses are summoned
to be present. It is, however, currently reported, and be-
lieved in the neighbourhocd, that a verdict of manslaugh-
ter has been agreed on end will be officially returned.

IN RE THONAS HOWILLS.

This insolvent had been before the Court on a former
occasion, when the hearing was adjourned, in order that
he might file a fresh schedule, and account for a large
sum of money which was left him as a legacy.
In the schedule which he now produced in Court he
accounted for the disposition of this money, by stating
that he spent it in " folly, extravagance, and dissipa-
tion," and being continually drunk, he lodged it in his
brother's hands, and used to draw it from him in 51. and
101. at a time ; but he did not recollect how he spent it.
He was remanded for four calendar months from the
date of his vesting order.
London, England, 1844-10-25

The line from Worcester, with a branch to the Severn, is in-
tended to pass near the towns of Pershore, Evesham, Stratford.on-
Avon, Banbury, Bicester, and Aylesbury, and to join the London
and Birmingham Railway in the vicinity of Tring, which has been
found, on the whole, to be a more desirable point of junction for
public; accommodation than Weedon. The line from Rugby to
Oxford is intended to pass also by way of Banbury, and will form,
for about twenty miles, a portion of the main line from Worcester
to Tring. Whilst Worcester by these means will be brought within
a distance of 119 miles of the terminus of the London and Birming.
ham Railway at Euston.square, the intermediate country will be
connected by the proposed line to Rugby with the eastern side of
the kingdom. On the other hand, Birmingham and the midland
and northern counties will be thus directly connected with Oxford
and the south ; and, as a necessary result, the London and Bir..
mingham Railway Company will effect a junction of their existing
Warwick and Leamington branch with the proposed lines.
Accurate surveys of the country have been made under the di.
rection and personal superintendence of Mr. Robert Stephenson,
who reports that it is free from any considerable engineering dif.
flculties.

Estimates of the traffic has been prepared, showing a return upon
the expenditure sufficient to induce the Directors of the London
and Birmingham Company to lease the line In perpetuity, which
they have agreed to do, with a guarantee of 4 per cent. per annum
to the Proprietors upon the outlay, and half the surplus profits.
A moiety of the shares is reserved for the Proprietors of the
London and Birmingham Company ; and the remainder will be
alloted to parties having local interests, and other applicants.
Interest, at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, will be paid half-
yearly on the Deposits and Calls, from the time of payment.
Applications for shares may be made to the solicitors, or to the
following sharebrokers :—Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, Old
Broad.street, Mr. Robert William Moore, Threadneedle-street,
London ; Mr. Samuel Woods, jun., Liverpool; or Mr. James
Pearson, Birmingham.

HOLISM DYE WORKS.

SALE of EXTENSIVE and Valuable DYE WORKS, at
THORNES, near WAKEFIELD, advantageously situate for
carrying on businers in Cloth and Wool Dying, and also in Stuff
Dying, and Finishing, in connexion with the Towns of Man-
chester, Bradford, Leeds, Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury, and
Wakefield.

MESSRS. BECKET and CHILD, have the
honour to announce that they have received instructions
to offer the abeve valuable and eligibly situated Premises for
public competition, on FRIDAY, the 22d day of November next, at
the Strafford Arms Hotel, in Wakefield aforesaid, at Four o'Clock
in the Afternoon.

These Premises are upon the Banks of the Calder (the water of
which has long been celebrated for its excellency for Dyeing pur_
poses), and are situate higher up the stream than any other similar
establishment.

The works possess facilities for the transit of goods rarely to be
met with. They are bounded by the river Calder, the Calder and
Hebble Navigation, and the Wakefield and Denby Dale Turnpike
road, and are within a short distance of the Manchester and Leeds
Railway.

In the immediate vicinity are several working Collieries, from
whence fuel may be obtained on very reasonable terms.

The Buildings have been erected within the last four years, and
are arranged upon a plan admitted by competent judges to be equal
if not superior to any other Dyehouse in the kingdom.
The Steam Engine is 30 horse power. and connected with it are
FIVE LARGE BOILERS,
_

constructed for the purpose of generating steam for the works, and
all the machinery (including large Indigo Mill, and every requisite
for preparing Dye-woods), utensils, and implements, are on the
most modern and improved principles.

Attached to the premises is
A NEWLY-BUILT DWELLING-HOUSE,

containing dining, drawing, and breakfast-rooms, and two kitchens
on the ground-floor; and adjoining are tastefully laid-out Plea-
sure Grounds, sloping to the river, and forming a most desirable
residence for the Proprietor of the Works.

Contiguous are
TWO ACRES OF GRASS LAND,
-Mid excellent STABLES AND WORKSHOPS.

Plans and particulars of the property arc in course of prepara.
tion, and may shortly be had on application to the parties to be
named in a future announcement.

For further particulars, or fur an order to view the works, apply
