LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF KIN 'S Om 28.
(Adjourned Sittings at Westminster—Cannon Juries.)
TUB LINO W. MATTIIIIW WHIM _ _

This was an indictment against the Defendant, a stock-broker,
for a fraud. The indictment was founded upon the Act of the
7th and Bth of George IL It stated that Ann Hubert had depo-
sited with the Defendant two Exchequer bills, each of the value
of £5OO and ,e2OO in Bank of England notes, for the express pur-
pose of being vested in Government securities, for the advantage
of her son, then a miner. The Defendant, instead of vesting the
money in the funds as aforesaid, applied it to his own use, contrary
to the Statute.
__

Mr. Baotioram, as Counsel for the prosecution, stated that Mrs.
Hubert, a widow, on leaving this country in 1821 fur Paris, left
the sum of 1,2001. in Exchequer bills and cash for the purpose of
being vested in the funds for the benefit of her son. The defendant
received the money, and promised to apply it according to her wish,
but it appeared that he had abused her confidence, and in the present
instance was amenable to the law. The Jury might remember that
some years ago an extensive fraud was committed by the stockbroker
of a high legal character (Sir T. Plomer,) who was also a Member
of Parliament. In consequence of that fraud an Act passed which
made such offences misdemeanors. The Act provided that if any
.. .

person should receive money, for a conditional purpose, and com-
mit a breach of confidence by applying it to another purpose,
or to his own advantage, every person so offending should be gailty
of a misdemeanor. That Act, however, was repealed by the
7th and Bth of Geo. IT. by which it is a penal offence to
embezzle monies placed in the hands of servants or agents.
Mrs. Hubert prosecuted upon that statute. She was a foteign
Lady, well known in the neighbourhood of Bloomsbury-square,
where she bad long been extensively employed as a milliner.
Being prepared to quit this country for France, and intending
to rade two years in Paris, she sent 41,400 to the Defendant,
with a letter instructing him u to her intention. He acknowledged
the receipt of the money, and undertook to apply it in the way re-
quired. Some time after wrote to him, but received no answer.
At last a professional Gentleman, Mr. Cole, ascertained that Mr.
White had not disposed of her money in the way she wished. He
had used the £l,BOO note in a speculation of his own which tamed
out unsuccessful. She then received from Mr. White a letter, in
which he expressed contrition for his misconduct, and promised to
pay the interest of her money. Mrs. Hubert some time after
consulted her son, who had become an attorney, who cemmenced
this prosecution.
Mrs. Anne Hubert being examined as a witness, proved the facts
stated by Mr. Brougham.
Upon reading the letters which passed between the parties, it
appeared that she had placed the money in the hands of the De-
fendant, to be placed in the funds in the event of her death.
Lord TINTIIIOIII interfered at this part of the proceedings, and
observed that the evidence did not support the indictment. The
money was only to be vested in the funds conditionally. In case
any accident should befall the Lady, the Defendant was directed
to invest it in Government securities for the benefit of her son. The
Defendant was not to invest it unless any thing happened to the
Lady. The allegation in the indictment was, that the Defendant
received instructions to invest it, unconditionally, absolutely.
Mr. BILOBOHAN admitted that the indictment was in that form.

Lord TILIITERDIDI then told the Jury that the indictment was
not made out. —The Jury consequently pronounced their verdict
Nut Guilty.

WOOD V. SMITS.

This was an action to recover 251. paid for a mare warranted
sound, which turned out to be lame. The plaintiff bought the mars
at Hampton, and the defendaut said she was sound. It turned out
she had a contraction in the foot, and was lame. The mare had
been in the 15th Dragoons, and was sold to the defendant, in con-
sequence of unsoundness, for £lO.
Notwithstanding the above facts, witnesses were called on the
part of the defendant, to prove she was sound.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages £25.
RAWSON a. as ELI.

This was an action brought by an Attorney, to recover his bill
of costs, for conducting for the defendant his defence to a suit in
Chancery.
Mr. Pott.ocz and Mr. Tomuttsov appeared for the plaintiff, and
the defendant conducted his own case. •

The defendant, in a long speech, the greater part of which was
entirely irrelevant, contended that he was not bound to pay the
bill, as the plaintiff bad abandoned his suit in the Court of
Chancery, and had also neglected his interest.
Lord TiNTLADIN summed up the evidence which had been ad-
duced, with great minuteness, and said that an attorney was not
bound to proceed in a case where his client insisted on adopting
methods of carrying it on that were not important to the cause.
He therefore was bound to say that the defendant had not shewn
any good defence to the action.
The Jury immediately found a verdict for the plaintiff—da-
mages, st 76 6s.
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Om 2S.
(Adjourned Sittings in London before Loan Cam Justice
TYNDAL and a Special Jury.)
GOSS V. WYNN.

Mr. Sergeant Wane plaintiff) stated the case. This
action was brought by the assignees of a bankrupt to recover
the value of certain goods, or bills of lading. James Halliday,
the bankrupt in question, was an officer la the East India Com-
pany's service, and having wished to take out goods with him,
he was obliged to raise money on security. He went out a se-
cond time, and obtained money from Messrs. Wynn the de-
fendants. The bits of lading of goods shipped, and also 550!
were handed over to them as security for a bond they had given.—
The assignees, finding very little property, instituted this action to
see what was really due to 51 . Wynn, as they wished to recover
either the property or the bills of lading in question, which were
in the hands of Messrs. Wynn. Three bonds on respondentia had
been made by Mr. Peter Wynn • one for 48,000. one for .0,000,
and another for 44,500 ; part of? this sum bad been discharged.—
The assignees wished to recover these bills of lading, as they con-
sidered they were illegally kept in the hands of Messrs. Wynn.
The bills of lading were sent by Mr. Halliday to England from
India. The goods were imported in the ships Waterloo and Low-
ther Castle, in May, 1826 ; which goods were estimated at 41,000,
and the five bills of lading were delivered to Messrs. Wynn, of
Paternoster-row, as security for the last bond of 44,500 ; the goods
were left in the bands of the East India Company, and were to
be sold.

Mr. Wm. Bryden deposed that his house did business for Mr
Halliday, who is now dead; be was one of the sureties in the
bond; his nephew, Mr. Halliday, sailed for India on the 21st
of March, 1825, and returned early in May, 1826. Goods were
put on board the Lowther Castle in January, secured on a re-
spondentia bond ; Mr. Mac Lachlan received some bills of lading
which were afterwards delivered to Mr. Peter Wynn; there
had been a former respondentia bond for 23000. In the month
of December, 1824, there was a part of this bond owing to the
amount of 21,800, which was reduced on the 20th of December
to 2800, as 21,000 and the interest as,. paid. Several checks and
bills were drawn by this witness on Messrs. Wynn on January 1,
1125; at that time he bad about 2300 in their bands. He paid
into their hands the sum of 24,488 by cheek, on January 1 (the
lame day,) to meet the checks he drew upon them. The bond for
24,500 was signed on that day. When the bond *as signed Mr.
P. Wynn, Mr. M' Lachlan, and Mr. Mackenzie, his clerk, were
present. Oa the return of Mr. Halliday, in 1825, through losses
experienced in Chins, he was not able to meet the demands of his
creditors.

Cross-examined by the ATTORDRY Gamut., for the defendants
—Applied to Mr. Wynn to lend him £1,500 on the 40th Dec. and
paid £l,OOO on that day upon the bond; .8800 then remained to
be paid. Mr. Wynn inquired of him whether he would require
any more money on respondentia ? A check was given to Messrs,
Wynn to cover the two promissory notes. When Halliday arrived
from India be asked him about the bills of lading which bad been
kept back by Mr. Mackenzie. They were delivered to Mr. Mac
Lachlan, and on the 15th of May to Mr. Wynn. They were in-
dorsed by Halliday when at Canton.
Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant WILDZ—The £1,500 was bot-
rowed to pay some of Mr. Halliday's bills. At the time the check
of £B2O was given, it was agreed that it should stand over, as it
was thought no more would be required on retpondentia. This
check was obtained on the Ist of January.
Edward Kensington deposed that he was clerk to Messrs. Bryden
and Mackenzie, on the Ist of January, 1825. Recollects having
seen a responderatia bond.
Cross-examined by the Arroutzrv-GzzatAL—Don't recollect
having seen any other bond on that day, or when it was cancelled.
Messrs. liryden and Co. have been bankrupts since that period.
The Arroessar-G aaaaa L was heard on the other side. This
was an action of trover for a bill of exchange on reepondentia, or
bills of lading ; he considered tt was only applicable to one of the
parties, Mr. Peter Wynn. He then stated the stature of the Act
6th of Gen. I. and the 19th of Geo. 11. respecting money on
respondentia.
After some further observations from tht Anytime GtormaaL,
the LORD Cities Justice gave his opinion that the various Acts
were but applicable, and therefore direeted'a nonsuit.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday a respectable-looking elderly man, in the garb of a
mechanic, was brought up before Mr. HALLS, charged by police.
man No. 140, with disorderly conduct in the streets on Tuesday
night.
The policeman stated that he observed the defendant and four
other persons obstructing the footpath, mid ordered them to walk
on , which they refusing to do, be took them into custody.
Mr. HALLS asked what the nature of the obstruction was?

Policemen—They were standing together on the flag-way,
laughing and talking.
The defendant said that he had been used most scandalously.
His wife and himself bad been out with a friend and his wife, and
when about to separate, to return to their respective homes, they
hopped on the flag-way chatting. when the policeman came up and
P took him into custody,
Mr. Hai.t.s said the policeman had certainly exceeded his duty,
and discharged the defendant, who expressed his determination to
seek redress.

A female named Charletle Themes alias Fredinsi and a young
man named Yarmouth, whose hair was clotted with blood, were
charged by Police Sergeant No. 4, with having obstructed him in
the execution of bis duty.
The Sergeant stated that about ten o'clock on the previous night
he stopped a boy with a bundle of linen in Pickett-place ; and the
boy being unable to tell him where be had got it, wu &watched
with an officer to fetch his mother. While this officer was gone,
a crowd collected, and the defendants began to abuse witness, who
was obliged to use his staff on the bead of the young man, and ulti.
mately to take both him and the female to the watch-house. The
female had come out of a certain house called the Crown Hotel.

Mrs. Freeland denied tbh, and said she was a respectable
woman. She had merely been attracted to the spot by the
crowd, and the Sergeant, without the slightest provocation seised
her by the arm, and, thrusting his rattle into her face, ordered her
to walk on, upon which the young man interfered, and wu
beaten in the most brutal manner.

The young man was recommended to go before the Grand Jury,
to indict the Serjeant, which he said he would do.
Tao New Pouce.—Three coal-beavers, named Grubb, Gyfurgi,
and Randall, were yesterday brought before Mr. HAILS, by Ser-
jeant Gardner, of the New Police, charged with assaulting him in
the execution of his duty.
Gardner stated that a fire occurred in a house in One Tun•court.
Strand, on Tuesday night, and be and others of the police took the
parish engine of St. Martin's there, and attempted to enter the
house, but were prevented by the firemen, who had previously got
in, and were employed in extinguishing the flames. A scuffle took
place between the firemen and the police, and the three defendant.
interfered, and assaulted witness and his men.
Mr. HALLS said, it formed no part of the duty of the police to
fetch parish engines, or to go into a house when on fire, unit.,
there was no one else to do it. Their duties were of a very dif-
ferent description.
G. H. Brown, Esq. the Secretary of the Westminster lire
Office, said the most cordial co-operation had uniformly existed
until the present occasion between the firemen and the police,
and he regretted very much that any misunderstanding should
have occurred. It must be admitted, however, that firemen,
from their constant experience, were the best judges of what was
necessary to be done in the emergencies of a Ire, and it was dan-
gerous sometimes that their peculiar province should be inter-
fered with.

Mr. Whitt, who has been 38 years foreman to the British Fire
Office, said the policemen were told that they might render much
more efficient service by remaining in the street and keeping the
crowd away thau by coming into the house, but they would persist
on coming in. In the scuffle the coal -h , who knew the fire-
men, interfered.

Sir. HALLS said the police were decidedly in the wrong. The
management of measures at a fire ought to be left exclusively un-
der the control of the firemen, who must be the best judges of
what was necessary to be done. The police ought to employ
themselves to clear away the crowd, and give free scope and faci-
lity to the exertions of the firemen. He hoped this would be ob-
served in future. The defendants had certainly committed an
assault, and must be held to bail ; but perhaps it would not be
considered a case calling for prosecution at the Sessions.—The de-
fendants were then held to bail.

An immense number of charges were brought before the Ma-
gistrates by the new police, both at the day and evening sitting,
and their Worships were enable to get through them until a late
hour last night.
M A RLBOROUGH-STR EET.

On Tuesday five young men, of shabby-genteel appearance,
named Jews, Jackson, Mere, 411,Dosigall, and Henderson, were
charged with assaulting Dillon, Condell, and Crow, three of the
new policemen.
It appeared that the defendants went to an a.la-mode beef slop
in C.aule.street, about one o'clock yesterday morning, when a dis-
pute arose about the payment of their reckoning; a general row
ensued ; and the policemen were called in. The defendants struck
them repeatedly, and tore their clothes. They were, at length,
overpowered and taken to the watch-house.—They were aU or-
dered to find bait.
