Governments has just been received.The judgment, which i* a very elalsirate one, begins as follows: \u201cThe sole ultimate question in this case is whether the Crown, being an srdinary creditor of tin* bank which has been put in liquidation, is entitled to priority of payment over its other ordinary creditors.That again depends on the question \u2019how the two (Hides of Lower Canada are to be construed.Tlieir Lordships think it clear not only that the Crown is bound by the Codi*s, but that the subject of priority is exhaustively dealt with, so that tin* Crown can claim no priority except what i* allowed by them.If so, the other |K»ints which have been elaborately treated, both in the colony and hero, are only of subsidiary inqxirtance, though, undoubtedly, they have a liearing on the construction .f the Codes.\u201d The judgment then goes m to state that the law relating to property in the Province of (Quebec from 177-1 to lsii7, when the Codes came into force, must betaken to b«* the Coutume dt Paru, and that tli**re has been a uniform current of decisions to that effect in tlie colony, dating back 10 years or so before the date of the Codes, which ought not now to be questioned.The judgment then holds that the priority of the Crown, as admitted bv the French law, only refers to \u201ccomptable*,\" and that the difficulty come* in the proper construction of Article 1004 of the Civil Code, where the expressions \u201cses comptables\u201d and perM-n* accountable for its moneys\u201d are used.Their Lordships held that these expression* indicate not all the debtors, but are used strictly for those who are bound to account for particular transactions, such as tutor, executor, etc., and are not applicable\tto\tu banker.After other considérât'\u2022hi* on the interpretation of other article» of tie* Code, the judgment concludes a* follow* : \"Tho result i*.in the opinion of then Lordships, tho Court of Queen's Bench ought to have dismissed with cuts tho aplani from the Superior Court.We now humbly advise Her Majesty t-> make such a decn e.The respondents, by whom the Crown is represented, will pay the costs of the consolidated apiieals.\" that prices had been depressed.The progress of the cotton industry m India and Canada was alio touched u[ion.At the close a hearty vote of thunks was tendered the lecturer.COTTON AND COTTON GROWING.In the Natural History Rooms, last evening, an interesting and instructive lecture under the Sommet-ville series, was delivered by Mr.Win.Hobbs, on \u201cCotton.\" The attendance was good and tlie chair was occupind by Dr.T.* Sterry Hunt, who briefly introduced the lecturer.Mr.Hobbs opened by referring to the different kinds of cotton plant*, their botanical relation* and the conditions most favorable to their growth.Tin* quality known a* sea island cotton, grown off the coast of Georgia, possessed the finest fibre, and produced the most delicate doth.In describing the cultivation of the plant, the lecturer stated that tlie seeds were sown in tin* early spring and by the month of June the plants were in full blossom and were shortly afterward sue-ct-oded by the pials.The picking commenced in August and continued until N ivemlier and seinetimi-H as late us December, the busiest month, however, being October.The picking was performed by hand and chiefly by negroes who could pick from 200 pounds to J00 pound* daily, the crude cotton being den noted in broad basket», which each picker earned with hiir.The cotton w.-i* then dried and subjected to tie-ginning pn ctssby which tin- fibre was separated fmni the msd.In deieribing the cotton gin, which wa* invented in 1702 by l-\u2019.li Whitney, the I'-cturer pointed out the great, and in fact, invaluable aid which it hud rendered in the development of the cotton industry.Prior to it* invention the process of separating the seeds from the fibre had to be performed by hand and was very tedious, owing to Lie tenacity with which the n-fuse adhered to the tissue, but since the substitution of the cotton gin.the difference in the quantity of cotton prepared for the market has Ih-uii stupendous for while in the first case only a small quantity could be cleaned per day, under the present system each machine can turn out from 2.000 lb*, upwards daily.The packing of cotton into bale* tor transportation was the next stage and was generally performed by the aid of hydraulic presses.The lavages of the cotton worm, which make their appearance a'xmt every third year, were described.Tho lecturer quote I statistics showing the enonnou « increase in the quantity of cotton exported to England during recent years, but the increase* in value obtained for it via* not corresjxvndingly groat sl.owin; COURT OF Ql* KEN\u2019S BENCH.THK CASK Or JOHN H.IlYOK\u2014VBSTKKDAY VH'Klt noon\u2019s hrmhiok.The trial ,.f John S.Dyde was continued.The first witness examined wa* Mr.Win.(\u2019hip man, luanugi-r of tin* Ontario Bank, who pro duced a note pur]M)rting to I** signed by John Tyo, drawn by Kckersdortl A Co.on the formel for $225, which wo* delivered to him m the bank by the accused on the 10th of December, along with another note for $120 a* collateral 1 aerurity for a note of Kckersdortf A Co, of ÿlli), which bum he placed to their credit, and they afterwards checked that amount out.Witness «aid tfiat all the entrie* in the ledger were in the handwriting of Kckersdortf, as well as those in tin* loll ImioU anil journal.In the promissory notebook, the handwriting al*«i seemed to be tbe same.They had Kckersdortf i signature in the bank.< >n being shown a memorandum in tin* bill Isiok on a piece of papi*r with a list of naiues, witness said a part looked like the ! prisoner\u2019s and a part like l-k-kei sdorff * handwriting.The figures \u2018,fi2')0,\" and the words \u201ctwo months, from UthFebruary, 'SH,due 11th April,\u201d were like the pi isoner\u2019s haiidwriting, and the words \u201c net proceeds\u201d were like EckiTdorff 's, In some of the other discount «lips the figures are like EckerdorlJ's and the handwriting like the prisoner\u2019s.The last transaction hi* bank hud with the prisoner wa* an advance of $2.\u2019t0 two or three days before his arrest Mr.Jas.A.Mitchell being re called «rated that iudging from the correspondence in the letter liiMik he was of opinion that the prisoner wa* the active manager of the tirai.A letter, 2*ltli December, 1885, to Mr.W.W.Snaith, was in the prisoner\u2019s handwriting.It was asking for a bank draft.Another letter from Kckersdortf A Co.to E.Murphy, Queliec, stating that they would accept his draft when presented, was also in the prisoner's handwriting.For cross-examination, witness read another letter to Mr.Snaith, in which the prisoner detailed the trouble the firm had got into, and which Hated that it was more the anxiety almat h\u2019s business than the charge of forgery that tioubl.-d him.The prisoner further stated in the jt-i 1er (hat he had a»ked Kckersdortf if anything wa* vi l ong, and that the latter was in a great state of excitement, a* if he was drunk, ami promised to mi et him (Dyde) at the Bolicc court on the Monday und explain nil, and he (Dyde) had not seen him since.The letter went on to state that Kckei-wJnrff had managed the office for the iia*t *i\\ months, and concluded by expressing hi* (Dyde's) innocence.All the writing in th*-book* of the firm wan in Kckersdortf « handwriting.The prisoner, since the firm had a»-sigtii-d, had given Mr.Fatt all the information in lus fMiwer.The body of the writing in all the promissory notes wa*, in his opinion, in Kckemdortf\u2019s handwriting The manner in which the forged notes were entered, ami tie* balances brought down would blind anyone not accustomed to bookkeeping.Witness believed that there was no clerk in the employment of the firm.Mr.John Tyo, of Dundee, recalled, stated that Mr.Kckersdortf had livi-d at otii* of hi* hotels and spent a good deal of money.Kckers-d«rff had told witness that the prisoner had put five or six thousand dollar* Into the firm.Or.Ms-examined Witnesa had no means of knowing who committed the frauds on him.Wltniss knew Kckemlorff's handwriting, and part of that on the promissory notes t which vvitne**\u2019 name was forged looked very like Kc-kerfriortf\u2019*.In the opinion of witness Kck-rs-dorlf committed tie- forgerieson him Ho examine»!\u2014Witness fonno»l that opinion by i-nme talk Kckersdortf had with him .-ilsiut business.He had a very |*>or opinion of Kckeri doiff\u2019s character.Mr.Hoare.discount clerk in the Bulk of British M«rtli America, stated that a note iiitiuled to him was brought to the Imnk by lie* accused ifiuiself, und wa* in accused's hamlwrit-ing.On the 21st December another note ws* uttereil by accused, endorsed by Kckerstlorff A Co.; that was abo in thcaccu '-d\u2019* handwritiitg.Mr.Geoffrey lYufold, niiuiager of the Mont-rca 1 bronch of the Bank of lintish North America, re called.deposed that a .number of letters pioduced by Mr.Summer* were partially in ac-ciiM-d's and partially in a handwriting unknown to him He had examined the letter book of the firm and the large |Kirtion of the Mt-*i's were in the prisoner\u2019s handwriting.When the prisoner op»*n»-d hi* account with their bank he told witness that Eckendortf was alwuy» on the road.Cross-examined\u2014Witness\u2019bank had offered a reward for the apprehension of KckcrsdorlT, but he »lid not know whether he was captured yet.Witnrss had no animus against the prisoner and wished him no injury, but naturally vvitne** felt aggrieved at the taanner in which hi* Ixmk had lieen victimized.Thi* closed the ca*e for the prosscutivuL and the court adjourned until 10
