OUR T OF BANKRUPTCY, March 19.
WKIGLIT, DIDDULPH, AND CO.'S BANKRUPTCY.
This was the sitting fir the declaration of a further divi-
dend under the joint es ate of these bankrupts, and also for the
declaration of further dividends under the separate estates of
Mr. George Wright Biddulph and of Mr. H. Robiceon.
Mr. Bagshaw, Barrirer, said—Upon the occasion of the
"glorious Catholic emancipation" certain parties wished to
erect a memorial to his Grace the Duke of Wellington, and
subscriptions wee entered into for that purpose, trustees and
secretaries being named for the due application of the fan.
Mr. J. Wright was the sole surviving trustee, andllr. J. Ma-
honey, of Dublin, the sole secretary. Messrs.. Wr ght and Co.
were the bankers, arid the account stood in their hooks under
the head of " the Wellington Testimonial." The amount sub-
scribed was 1,400/. to 1,5001., and out of this amount 1,000/.
had been laid•out in the purchase of Exchequer-bills, while
the residue remained in the bank. Upon the failure of the
bank, he (Mr. Bagshaw) was instructed by the subscribers to
apply to the Court of Review for the appintment of new trus-
tees. The Court granted the order. and Mr. Lynch and him-
self were appointed. and they now applied (as we understood)
in tliat capacity to prove.
Mr. Hamilton, for the assignees, objected to any proof.
There was nu order from the eourt of Review to enable them.
to do so.
Mr. Bagshaw—Then it appears you wish the sum to ge,
tea
the general creditors rather than to those persons who paid site
money.
Mr. Commissioner Hotnnee said; he had no power to in-
terfere in the metier. An order must be first obtained trom the
Court of Review before the proof could be admitted.
Mr. fleorge Robins applied to the Court to order payment
of his expenses from 11,rghten to' attend a summons of this
Court. His claim was 10/., for coach-hire and loss of time.
Mr. Hamilton said, he must object to the Court ordering way
such amount. He was prepared to show that the- tithe named
for Mr. Robins's attendance in this Court was entirely to suit
Mr. Robins's own convenience. He (Mr. Hamilton) had sent
to Mr. Robins's office in Covent-Earden, and was there in--
forthed that he was coming to town to attended a meeting of
the shareholders of Drury lane Theatre, and upon this infor-
mation the summons was issued and left at Ain Robins's office. Now, if Mr. Robins meant to deny.that statement, he (Mr.
Hamilton) should be compelled to put him on his oath.
Mr. Robins-I should not have cotne to town on any such
wildgoose chase as the meeting of the Drury-lane share-
holders ; though called to town by your summons, I certainly
attended it, and am now ready to make oath thnt I came to
town especially upon your summons. I came for that and that.
only, and you shall pay We for it. Am 1 not, Mr. Commis-
sioner, entitled to interest upon my dividend, which has been
vexatiously withheld from me for the last six months?
Mr. Commissioner lloi.aoyn said, he certainly could not
allow interest on the dividend, but as to the expenses, what-
ever was the usual allowance made to other gentlemen-in like
circumstanoes, he should of course be paid.
The Registrar said, the allowance in such CASCS was one shil-
ling per mile.

Mi. Robins—. What? ls. per mile; is that all I am to get?'
Surely tire guineas fur three days is not too much for any Mal
to charge. Alr. Hamilton must have known that at the tiuse
the surnmOns was served I was at Brighton to sell Lord South-
ampton's estates.

• -
Mr. Comini:sloncr Hot.ROYD said, the Court could order no
more.

After o.her matters of minor importance were disposed of, a
dividend of Is. was declared under the joint estate, to pay
which it will take nearly 45,000/. Under the separate estate:
of Mr. G. W. Biddullitt a dividend was declared at 45., snaking
a total of 15s. in the pound at present declared, and Mr. H.
llobinson's estate will pay 20s. in the pound.
The following aprear to be costs of working this estate :
Official ass4;nre, 5,7201. (3,1001., being for commission or re-
ceipts amounting to 346,u001., and :2,620/. for commission on
paying dividends amountin., to 262;0004 ); solicitor, 1,676/. ;
messenger, 377/. ; tee fund, 386/.; and auctioneer, 1,604/.

1 POLICE IN TELL IGENCE.

A respectably attired young man, named Thomas Hikheoch,

2"d September last two gold watches, value 30/., one diamond
pin, value a. Ios., together with some plate and other articles,

Mr. Muss stated that he was a watchmaker, residing at No..
8, Ch ring-cross. The prisoner was an errand boy of his. Ore
the 22d SepteMber last witness missed the property before
mentioned, and on the same day the prisoner absconded. He
gave information of the robbery to the police, he printed hand-
bills describing the prol erty, and offering a reward for its re.
covery, arid he had also advertised it in the Pou.nbrsAers' Ga-
zette. They had been iti search of him, but had seen nothin,2 ut the prisoner until a few days ago, w hen he was apprehended
at Liverpool. They had also traced the property to different.
I pawnbrokers, viz., one wt the watches with Mr, Baylis, a pawil,-
broker in the Ilatni stead-road, and the plata at a pawnbroker's
in Leicester-square.
Police constable A 35, stated the capture of the prisoner a

and mother were living ; when in the etnploy of Mr. 31°,5 he
i received 3s. a week wages, and beard and lodging; ha had
been in the service of Mr. Moss about six months, and previous
to that time in the employ of a lisenctraper in Oxford-street.
He did not wish to ask the witsyss any questions; nor had he
anything to urge in his defence.
Mr. HALL gave instructions to the officer to take out three
summonses for the different pawnbrokers, as it was necessary
that they should attend.
1 he prisoner was then remandel for a fortnight.

ROBBEItY BY A SERVANT..-- William Dunford, a middle_
aged man, was fully committed on a charge of robbing his
employers, Messrs. Moore.and Co., of Little Earl-street, Seven
Dials, ironmongers. It appeared that the prisoner had been
in the employ of Ulu firm for the last nine years, and was
considered to be a very trustworthy servant. Latterly,
however, a deAciency in the stock was discovered; an& circumstances transpired 'which attached suspicion to him,. and. on searching his lodgings on Saturday night, propesty
belOnging to MesJrs. Moore and Co., to the amount of betweeni
bl. and t/. was discovered ; the prisoner then ackowledged his
guilt, and supplicated for mercy on account of his wife and
3 oung family. It is supposed that he has for a long while
been carrying on this system of plunder and to a very great
extent.

UNION-lIALL.
EMBEZZLEMENT.— William Bair?, clerk in the employ-
of Mr. Dixon, coal merchant, was brought up for re-exaMinab-
tion, charged with embezzlement. Mr. Dixon stated, that on
examining the accounts kept by the prisoner, he discovered
that the deficiencies amounted to betvreer. 300/. and 400/. He
added that he was not disposed at first to proeeed against the
prisoner, owing to his having a wife and family, but finding the
sum he had embezzled of so large an amount, he, therefore*,
considered it his duty to prusecute.
The prisoner, who is, a fine young man, fell down in a &
while at the bar, and was carried out of court. He was co-
mitted, but will m
e brought up again on a future day.
IVORSIIIP-STREE7.
Jane Franklin, a young woman of very care-worn aspect,
was charged with having unlawfully pledged a quantity of
materials fur the manufacture of braces, with which she had
been entrusted by her employer, Mr. Arrowthorn, of Foster-
lane, City.
The prisoner admitted the offence, and said that she was
urged to come'it it in consequence of the hapless situation of her-
mother, who lay on a sick bed without the means of procuring
medical assistance, or even the common wants of nature.
The prosecutor said he had every reason to believe that her
story was true, and he strongly recommended her to mercy.-
The prisoner was ordered to pay a fine of 10s. over and above
the value of the property, or to be committed to the noise of
Correction for ten days.
