LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, July 15.
(Before Mr. Commissioner HOLROYD. )
IN RE ABRAHAM HENRY CHAMBERS.
The bankrupt in this case, the well-known banker, whose
ease has been in progress of litigation for a number of years,
and who has only Just been liberated from prison, came up to-
day for the purpose of obtaining his certificate.
The Learned COMMISIONER asked if any creditor was in
attendance for the purpose of opposing the application for cer-
tificate now asked for by Abraham Henry Chambers ?
The Solicitor for the assignees—No, your Honour. We
(the assignees) do not intend to oppose the application; and I
am not aware that any of the creditors of the bankrupt intend
to oppose.
The bankrupt was then declared to have obtained his
certificate.

SECONDARIES' COURT, July 16.
(Before Mr. Secondary Parr En.)
CROSS V. REDMAN.
This was an action to recover the sum of 51. 9s. Id., for rent
of stables in North-place, Portman-market. The case was de-
void of general interest, but was another instance of the neglect
so continually occurring in the Courts. The first case, Hunter
v. Knight, was withdrawn, the parties not being prepared, arid
in the present, defendant had pleaded that he never was in-
debted, but was not in attendance. He had alleged that he
had a set-off for repairs to nearly the amount, and a witness
was present to prove a tender of the balance.
The SECONDARY said it was a great pity defendant did not
attend in time. If the defence, however, was a set-off, it ought
to have been pleaded. It was evident he intended to defend
the case, but the jury, as the case stood, could not do otherwise
than give a verdict against him.—Verdict for the plaintiff.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. July 15.
(Before Mr. Commissioner HARRIS.)
" BOATSWAIN SMITH" IN DIFFICULTY.

The insolvent, known as " Boatswain Smith," applied on
his petition to be discharged. He was liberated on bail a fort-
night back, and there was now no opposition made to him.
The debts on the schedule were 4411., of which no consi-
deration had been received for 275/. ; the bona fide debts were
only 162/. The insolvency was attributed to the law expenses
(the non-consideration debt) incurred in being ejected from
the Danish church in Wellclose-square, which he had rented
at 501. a year from 1825, and his debt for rent was 34/. 12s.
He had been connected with the British and Foreign Seamen
and Soldiers' Friend Society.
The insolvent, in answer to the questions of Mr. Commis-
sioner H&aais, stated that he had made an application to the
Thatched House Society, but obtained no assistance, because
he was in custody for law costs in an action of ejectment. The
building which had been used as the Mariners' Church in Well-
close-square had lately fallen down, and the property therein
buried.

Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said he perceived the insolvent
was in custody for the costs of an action of ejectment, and re-
quired an explanation on the subject.
The insolvent stated that there was a mariners' Danish
church in Wellclose-square, of which he was the minister. The
place was taken about twenty years ago to afford religious in-
struction, and he had the superintendence of the place. The
rent had been paid, and an action was brought in ejectment to
obtain possession, and he was now in prison for the costs of the
same.

Mr. Commissioner HARRIS remarked that one of the places
in Wellclose-square had been obtained by an action, and the
other had fallen down.

The Court ordered the insolvent, who appeared to be labour•
ing under indisposition, to be discharged.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
HOME ClRCUlT.—Chelmsford, July 15.
The commission for the county of Essex was opened on Mon-
day. The business is rather heavier than usual, there being 28
prisoners for trial, sof whom are charged with arson. On the
civil side 23 causes are entered, three of them being special jury
Causes. Chief Justice Tindal sat in the Crown court, and Mr.
Justice Coleridge presided at Nisi Prius.

(Before Chief Justice TINDAL.)
INCENDIARISM. Samuel Read, 45, was indicted for set-
ting fire to a stack of beans and a stark of straw, the property
of William Ridle}, at High Ungar.
When the prisoner came into the dock he gazed wildly round
him, and looking up to the gallery, where a number of ladies
were sitting, he exclaimed, " Ah, there they are, I see them,
the angels—l do love them." He then made a low bow to his
Lordship, and burst into a lout laugh. His conduct altogether
betokened insanity.
Chief Justice TINDAL inquired whether the prisoner was in
a sane state of mind. or whether his conduct was assumed?

Mr. Neale, the governor of Springfield gaol, said the pri-
soner had been under his charge since March, and he had op-
portunities of observing his conduct since that period, and in
his opinion he was really insane.
The jury were then sworn to decide whether the prisoner
was in a fit state of mind to plead, and upon hearing the evi-
dence of the surgeon they found that he was not ; and he was
accordingly remanded until the next assizes.

NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Bedford, July 14.
The commission for this county was opened this afternoon
by the Learned Judges of Assize, who also afterwards attended
Divine service in St. Paul's Church.

It is rumoured that this had well nigh proved a " maiden
assize," as far as the " criminal prisoners" are concerned ; as it
is, report has it that late on Saturday night a watchful con-
stable laid hold of an offender. He, however, is not of import-
ance sufficient to give employment to the " calendar.mengers,"
whose voices are silent, and disturb not the quietude of this
town with their accustomed clamour.

The cause list contains one special and two common jury
causes, but its exact entry cannot at present be ascertained.

MIDLAND ClRCUlT—Northampton, July 10.
The commission for Northampton, the first place of busi-
ness on this circuit, was opened at half-past six yesterday
evening by Sir Frederick Pollock, and this morning, at an early
hour, the Learned Chief Baron proceeded to the church of All
Saints, where Divine service was performed. At eleven
o'clock the two Courts were opened, Mr.. Justice Maule taking
his seat on the Nisi Prius side, and the Lord Chief Baron pre-
siding in the Criminal Court. On both sides the business is
light. The calendar has the names of twelve prisoners, several
of them being for rape, and two for cutting with intent, &c.
There are eight causes only, and we believe they are altogether
of a trivial nature.'

Geo'ge Martin Keatley, aged twenty-one, James Cunning-
ham aged thirty-nine, and John Geldar, aged sixteen, were
charged with assaulting and robbing, near Stamford, one Wil-
ham Wright Water&ld.
Mr. Hildyard prosecuted.
Mr. Macaulay conducted the defence.
The prosecutor is a butcher at Stamford, and on the let of
June was coming by Burley Park from Kettering. At the
distance of a mile and three-quarters from Stamford there is
a drift way leading to the great north road. The prosecutor
saw three men there. He continued his way, passing the
men, who followed him. About twenty minutes past ten he
saw a man he knew named Richardson, and bade him " Good
night." A short distance further on, having looked behind
him, he saw a man, with whom he walked conversing. Sud-
denly he passed in front, and stood before him with a stick.
This was Keatley. The other men then ran up to the pro-
secutor, who was knocked down by Keatley. Saw Cunning-
ham by a side view. He was then dragged to the side of the
road and robbed of 4s. 6d. in money, and a variety of small
articles. Prosecutor called out. One man seized hold of his
throat, but said if he would hold his noise they would not hurt
him. Having robbed him they went away, and prosecutor
went on to Stamford. The prosecutor returned to where he
had first seen the prisoners, and found Keatley and Cunning-
ham asleep, to whom he swore positively. •
Thomas Sanders, a police-officer at Stamford, accompanied
prosecutor to the gipl, camp, and apprehended the prisoners.
A woman present sa►d there had been a robbery, and she sup-
posed that was what they were wanted for. Cunningham said
" hush." The prisoners were travelling with china orna-
ments. In the camp, in a bag, were found 145/. 108., 841. 10s.
being in gold.
There were other witnesses, but the only evidence as to
iden►ity was that of the prosecutor.
Two persons gave Cunningham a good character, and re-
presented his business to be of that description as to make it
not unlikely he would have a large sum of money by him.
The Learned Judge having summed up, the jury retired.
Ultimately they acquitted the whole of the prisoners.
