none the less ceased to be his property.
And if so, my counsel proceeded, there
would be a very remarkable point for the
decision of his lndship. For he went on
to elicit that Mr.. WeddIe, after losing
nearly the whole of his money, had COM
mltt~d suicide under such determined cir
cumslances, that even The charity of a
coroner'S jury had been constrained to
pronounce it teto de Sc, and he had been
buried without funeral rites. Wherefore,
as The certificates of which he had been
robbed were still his property in the eve
of the law, it would follow, from his be-
Ing a teo de Sc, that they became the pro-
perry OF the crown, consequent on his
act But It they were the property of
the crown, the crown was liable for that
twelve months; and again, the safe could
rot he legally sold without authority from
The crown !; and his client could not be
the legal buyer, nor, consequently, have
any right title, interest, or liability in The
shares aforesaid.
In addition 10 all this-But no / will
spare the reader the farther particulars
OF this involved case /; suffice ii to say that
II was decided in my favour. But it was
carried TO a higher court, where I was
required to show cause why the verdict
should l@t be set aside, and entered for
the plaintiff, on the ground of the decision
being contrary to evidence. There it
was all gone over again, with the addition
that the original thieves were produced,
one OF them no other than my burglars
friend Toney (and | Was threatened with
an action by the maker of The safe for
stating that Toney broke open the I'm
impeachahle' in five minutes in nv out
house,. Here the decision went against
me. Finally, the case came before the
bench o fjudges, where a majority of one
reversed the ruling of the lower court.
| was therefore at last so far successful
in the issue as to find myself in the Bank
ruptcy Court, on account of the legal ex-
penses my precious trial had accumulated.
The one satisfaction attending this result
was, that | must inevitably have gone

Official Assignee an the Bankruptcy.

OUtCIUG ASStSUee IN LNe DUHhFUptCy.
Ofool | began TO vaguely see now why
the clerk told me I might be quite sure no
one else would claim The shares They
were not only of no value, but their pos
session was subject to heavy liability.
And |, to be IDIOT enough TO 60 and claim
them when the company was actually
bankrupt and worse
Night as it was, | determined to 90 at
once and see my wift's brother-in-law,
Mr. Blode. He was a barrister-had been
one for ten yearS-but had never had a
brief.
'Oh, shouldn't take any notice ofthat,'
he said: I don't think they can fix you
with liability. I'll write TO the assignee
and manage it for you. Let mt know if
you hear any more Of it. You are an
innocent party you dIdn't buy the shares,
but the iron safe. But how on earth did
they know you held the certificates p
l told him | had given an authority to
have them registered in my name.
He drew in his breath, and produced a
long whistle like a sigh. Then you've
endorsed their possession. You should
have consulted me. How ever, | wouldn't
trouble about it. Leave it to me-
1t would take too long to describe the
harassing anxietieS which each week
brought me. while my case as a contribu-
tory was dragging along first through one
court and then another but the different
lights which various luminaries of the
law shed on my unfortunate Two g%uineas'
worth deserve to be particuIarised.
1t was argued that, in buying the safe
| could not have bought the contents
that the safe was described in the catalo-
que as a safe, and nothing more, and that,
consequently, as | had only bought a safe,
whatever was found in it was no more
mine than any other distinct article 10
the catalogue, and I could not therefore
be responsible for liabilities attaching
thereto. 1t was retortcd by the oppos-
ing counsel, that should his ludship &C
qniesce in the view Of the case PROFOUND
ed, certainly 10 his establishment, by his
learned friend, and decide that the certi-
fcates were not purchased py me, and not
therefore mine, he would agree to a YER
dict, and Immediately indict me for felony,
for oppropria,ing the shares to my own
use, and authorising their registration in
my name. He submitted that if I had
bought the shares, | was liable as a con-
fributory /; and if not, as a felon. The
learned judge said he could not entertain
sne issue of felony, as that was a question
, 1869-11-16

The conditions of sale were sufficiently
explicit to his mind on that point-'the
lots TO be cleared with all faults and
erroSs of description Indeed, the very
term employed by auction custom APP
peared decisive. The item in question
was described as 'Lot 217-an iron Safe
1t was the slot which was put up to
competition, aud, 10 use Il common ex-
preston, Mr.. RUNWAY had bought the
Iot-that was, sall The lott The question
then arose: Gould | be held liable as a
cnntributory, when ia fact | had purchas-
ed the shares on The very day of The COM
pany's bankruptcy, and the registry in
my name was not completed until some
weeks later In other words, that seeing
thu company bad contracted no liabilities
during The time | held the shares (laving,
in fact, ceased buSlness), could be made
a con%trIbutory Against this it was urged
that share represented past responsible
ties, and that as | should have been cnti-
tied to sh ire in IA dividend on The past
year (hal one been decIared), so it was
just that | shOul bear my proportion Of
the burdens. Aud again it was clear
that somebody must be liable as a contri-
bu|ory in respect of these fifty shares for
twelve mouths prior to the bankruptcy,
and the burden of proof as to the person
so lab e, if not myself, must be supposed
to rest with their present poSse>sor. The
Judge thought not, as it was not 10 he con-
tended | could have had either interest
or liability IN the company before tine
date Of the sale. The case, however,
was complicated still further by the OPP
posing counsel Bringing evidence as TO
the previous owner of the iron safe, and
eudeavouring 10 prove that his lIabilitS
in respect of the shares actually termina-
ted twelve months previous to my pur-
chase, so as TO fix ne with responsibility
for the interim. 1t appeared that the
safe aud its contents, som Gig teen
months back, had belonged to q Mr..
Wendle, a shareholder in the company ;
that, in addition 10 the certificates, it had
contained his cash-box and a quantity of
gold and notes, and that the safe had
been stolen from his office, the notes and
gold and cash-box removed by the rob-
bers, who had obtained a wax impression
of his key, and the valueless safe, CON
tanning the shares, sold to an ironmonger,
who put in into the sale. This Mr.. Wen
die had applied for duplicates of the share
certificates, which were refused by the
company until he couIA prove the de-
struclion of the old ones. Unsuccessful
in this, and distressing the reckless busi-
ness of the 'UndeniabIe and Unlimited,
he at last applied to have the shares stand
ing in his name cancelled, which had been
done. 1t would therefore follow, it was
contended, that my liability embraced the
whole. twelvemonth, from The time Mr..

a Matter Requiring Immediate Attention

Little girls, passing and repassinE be-
tween the two public school houses, have
learned to regard, with feelings ofterror,
the Freedmen's school, on Walnut street.
The negro boys attending that school lie
In wait for them, and when they arrive
opposite the building, dart out upon
them, catch them, hug them and not I'M
frequently kiss them. Only yesterday, a
negro boy about IL years Of age, caught a
little daughter of one Of our prominent
citizens, and despite her struggles and
cries, held her, and kissed her twice upon
the mouth.
This thing must be stopped! There
are little girls who, TO escape the EN-.
braces OF the filthy negro boys IN ques-
ton, would throw themselves from the
high sidewalks, the result OF which
would be serious, II not mortal injury.
We have been asked To call the attention
of our school directors TO the matter. We
hope they will be able to apply the need

suggestion last night, and, until II
o'clock kept watch. During that time
he saw two persons approach the coveted
fuel, with the evident purpose Of coniis-

them to put down that wood % they
obeyed, and scampered or in hurry
