UTTERING A FORGED NOW,

Joseph Royle, 52, was indicted for having, at Manchester,
uttered a forged note, purporting to be one of the notes of the
Halifax and Huddersfield Union Banking Company for the
payment of £5, with intent to defraud William Birchall—
also with uttering another forged note to Isaac Staley.
The prisoner, it appeared, went to Birchall, who keeps the
Fleece Inn, and asked for change of the note, which was af-
terwards found to be bad. The other he uttered to Isaac
Staley, in payment for goods to the amount of about
He said, on being told that it was bad, that he had received
it in Yorkshire, and would refund the money on the following
Saturday, but did not. On being apprehended, he said he
had received the note from a person ❑amed John Taylor, of
Buckstones, at an inn called " Aunt Sarah's." A man
named John Taylor, from a place three miles from Buck-
stones, was t'-ere, but did not know the prisoner, The pri-
soner had put his name on the note. He had, it appeared,
been in the habit of travelling the country selling cloths, and
also kept a provision shop. The superintendent of the Man-
chester police stated, on cross-examination, that a vast num-
ber of such notes had recently got into circulation in York-
shire and elsewhere, and that he had recently been on a trial
in which it was shown that one man had uttered them to the
amount of £lOOO. Mr. WimuNs, who appeared for the
prisoner, said that the prisoner had taken the notes unwit-
tingly, and had even put his name upon one of them.—The
prisoner was acquitted.

BURGLARY

Charles Pilling, 19, who was indicted with two others,
Crook and Young, who had pleaded guilty, was charged with
a burglary at Bolton. The house of a person named Bridge
was broken open on the 12th January, and a watch, some
money, and some wearing apparel, were carried off. The
only remarkable feature in this case was, that the only two
witnesses against the prisoner, were, a man who had recently
been convicted of felony, and a prostitute. The prisoner was
acquitted. The other two prisoners (good looking young
men,) had pleaded guilty to two indictments, and had pre-
viously been twice convicted of larceny. They were each to
be transported for 10 years.

GLORIOUS UNCERTAINTY OF TILE LAW.—On the sth
Few uary, 1840, a case involving the question whether a
judgment of upwards of 20 years standing, on which no in-
terest was proved to have been paid, or no acknowledgment
in writing given, was absolutely extinguished by the recent
Statute of Limitations 3 and 4 Win. 4th. c. 27. sec. 40, or
whether a judgment of revival, subsequently obtained, re-
vived the original judgment, came before the Court of Error
at Dublin. when ten of the judges gave their opinion that
judgment of revival constituted a renewal of the debt, and
continued the liability. Baron Foster was the only judge
who dissented from this. The defendant appealed to the
House of Lords, and they summoned the judges of England,
and their unanimous opinion was, that the original judgment
being barred by the Statute of Limitations, was in effect
extinguished, and that the subsequent judgment of revival
was a nullity. Thus are the judges of England against the
Irish judges. The Belfast Times says,—" The effect of
this recent decision, if it become law by the affirmance of the
House of Lords, and of the statute in contemplation, must
necessarily be to create alarm amongst judgment creditors,
and to drive them to call in their money. The subject is one
of vast importance in the present state of landed property in
Ireland, and it is hoped the Irish Attorney-General, whose
opinion coincides with the Irish judges, will at once prepare
and have a bill brought into Parliament to secure judgment
crediiors in their honest claims ; and also to substitute ser-
vice of law process for recovery of simple contract debts when
parties leave the country to reside on the continent to evade
their debts."

TROVER

EnwAnns v. BIRD.—An undefended action, in trover, to
recover the value of a quantity of cases containing certain
i pro-
perty belonging to the plaintiff, which the defendant, t was
alleged, had improperly converted to his own use. Mr.
CROMPTON, for the plaintiff, stated that the plaintiff was a
military gentleman, who, upon retiring from the army, en-
tered into partnership with some parties in carrying on a
coal mine near Wigan. II is occupation was to look after the
business in Liverpool, where the defendant was employed in
collecting orders. The partnership in Wigan was dissolved,
and Captain Edwards was about to leave Liverpool for
another part of the country, when the defendant, in whose
possession the boxes in question were left, detained them on
the ground that a sum of money was owing to him for corp..
mission on his collection of orders. The learned counsel
said if the defendant would give the boxes up he would con-
sent to a verdict with nominal damages. After the examina-
tion of three witnesses, the jury returned a verdict for the
plaintiff, damages, £29.

THOMPSON AND ANOTHER V. Cnosstrv.—The plaintiffs
are wine and spirit merchants in Liverpool, and the action
was brought against the defendant, a surgeon in Manchester,
to recover a balance of £6B for goods supplied and money
lent. The action was undefended, and a verdict was re.
turned for the amount claimed.
BENTON V. PLUNIPTON.—Tbe plaintiff in this case is a
house and land agent in Liverpool, and the defendant is Mr.
Plumpton, one of the representatives, in the Town Council, of
West Derby ward. The action was brought to recover the
sum of £132 10s., commission on the sale of a quantity of
land by the defendant to a Mr. Gosling, in the year 1839, for
£5,300. The defence rested on the ground that the plaintiff
had not introduced Mr. Gosling to the defendant ; but it
failed ; and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for
£132 108. ; cosh) 408.

caused an increased consumption of clothing and provisions,
rendering the people happier and more comfortable than when
their money was squandered in the purchase of intoxicating
liquors. It was clear, therefore, both in a commercial and
moral point of view, that this opium trade was terribly in-
jurious. He cited a great number of authorities. proving the
deleterious effects of opium on the Chinese population, and
also neon the population engaged in the cultivation of the
drug in Asmara. In the latter country the people were not
only enervated by the use of this narcotic, but were brought
up under Its influence as a crafty, cruel, and most immoral
race ; and yet writers speaking of the natives before the poppy
was cultivated there, represent the people as a strong, manly,
and intelligent race. In fact one opium cultivator was
enough to demoralise a Whole village. By
stimulating the
growth of opium this country was governing India for its
toown purposes only, and not with reference to the wants and
stathde PrimPeritY oi its population. He was given to under-
to
that the cultivation of the poppy was by no means po-
pi,!lar with the natives—that they would prefer the culture
of sugar indigo, and other innocent and useful commodities,
to the production' of which the soil was devoted before this
odea.tesable traffic in opium was established. The smuggling

e, did. not
stand alone as the:supporters of this vile traffic, for a committee
of the House of Commons had declared it was not expedient to
discourage the trade as so great an amount of revenue as it pro-
duced could notbe raised so conveniently from any other source.

BURGLARY,

Charles Piling, 19, who was indicted with two others,
Crook and Young, who had pleaded guilty, was charged with
a burglary at Bolton. The house of a person named Bridge
was broken open on the 12th January, and a watch, some
money, and' sonic wearing apparel, were carried off. The
only remarkable feature in this case was, that the only two
witnesses against the prisoner, were, a man who had recently
been convicted of felony, and a prostitute. The prisoner was
acquitted. The other two prisoners (good looking young
men,) had pleaded guilty to two indictments, and had pre-
viously been twice convicted of larceny. They were each to
be transported for 10 years.

MISDEMEANOUR

James Partington, aged 50, who had pleaded not guilty to
an indictment charging him with having, at Bolton, put off a
forged order to one John Makin, by means of which he ob-
tained a considerable sum of money, withdrew his former
plea, and pleaded guilty. It appeared that he had been led
to the commission of the offence by another prisoner named
Horrocks. He had been imprisoned since the 10th of Fe-
bruary. His LORDSHIP, therefore, sentenced him to four
