' of Limehouse, the engineers, appeared to his bail, charged with amaulting Josses Winterborne, one of the workmen. We reported the test bearing of this ease yesterday. About 40 or 50 of the maslgsasstsd men now assembled is the pawge and outside tee court, but none but these engage in the cue were admitted by the damn, who performed their duty effectually. Wiaterborne upon the present occasion, deposed, I first went to work on Monday last, and that young man Isogon on Tuesday morning . to say " Hurrah for the Amal gamated men," and he points me out to a crowd of men outride the premises, who laugh at me. He did that several times. On Monday I was at work at some plunks, which are placed over a hole. On Tuesday one of the planks bad been shifted and gave way, and I fell into the hole, which is five or six feet drop. The prisoner was at work near that place on the previous night. He examined by Mr. Roble —I mu apprehensive I may sustain some injury from the persons in the society. There are a great many of them outside the court. Mr. Smith (prisoner's solicitor)—l must object to that. Mr. Ingham—At present it seems from the evidence that this assault was committed in pursuance of • conspiracy to rise the rate of weges. It appears to hear that aspect from the complainant being pointed out by the prisoner to a number of persons outside the premises. I shall, therefore, allow Mr. Hobler (solicitor for the prosecution) to go into everything that has a tendency to show that there is a con spiracy to raise the ram of wages, and that this assault was oommittcd is pursuance of that conspiracy. Mr. Smith—This young man is here charted with an assault. Ile is not a member of any society which struck out for au increase of wager. Ile may have hurraed fur the Amalgamated Suciety,:and only meant it for a piece of satire to ridicale that society. Mr. Ingham—What is your objection / Mr. Smith—There is no proof of anything occurring prior to this charge. If the passage of this court is filled with a oartsin set ol men, so that I or any other person cannot go out without being annoyed in some way or other, and if this witness is annoyed by them is that to be laid against my client. Why, in almost every Ca•U of assault that conies here, either the complainant or defendant is sure to ho abused by the friends of the opposite parry. Is what takes place oat hers to be construed into a conspiracy in which my client is engaged ? Mr. Ingham—l do not think that is irrevclsnt, and shall therefore allow Mr. Holder to proceed, on condition that some evidence is offered hereafter to connect the prisoner with the acts of those outside. If that is nut dune, all this will fall to the ground. Reexamination continued—The prisoner he' put his linger to his nese, and threatened to give it me when I got outside. That was yesterday. I apprehended before I came here that some injury would be done me, from the in which the primmer spoke to those outside. If I work on the premises with him again, I shall go in danger of my life. I never threatened to resent or prevent any violence. Itichard Groove sworn—l am a mechanic, in the employ of Messrs. Blyth. I am out an Amalgamated man. I have been employed aims last Monday. The establishinente were closed beferotbat time. I do not know whether they all closed. I have seen this young man laugh, and jeer, and vibe us out to those outside, and they call us nobeticka. Robert Maettuff sworn-1 am in the employ of Messrs. Illyth. I have been there a number of months, but have entered afresh since last Monday. The Amalgamated men call the men knobaticks because tiny arc nut exactly con nected with engineering business. The society now called the Amalgamated Society was formerly the Manchester Union Society. By Mr. Smith—According to the rules of the Amalga mated Society, every apprentice can join in the latter end of his apprenticeship. Two of my sons have been members, and may be now. Ido not know that they cannot be ad mitted until within ail months of the expiration of their apprenticeship. 'Thomas Watkins, a detective officer, 310 K, stated that he was stationed near Messrs. Blyth's. A great many men assembled round, and Inspector Holm, a ant him to keep the pavement deer. I have heard them make use of the words nobsticks and Week legs. Mr. Blyth sworn—l am a manufacturer of marine en gines. Oa the 10th of November it was found necessary to close the establishments throughout London and Lancashire in consequence of a notice rix ( eived from a set of people calling themselves the Amalgamated Society, who thought they had • right to interfere between the employer and the employed, and to strike for an increase of wages which we employers felt ourselves bound to refuse. Between 200 and 300 left us. We re-opened on Monday last with about 130 new men. My impression Is that the apprentices are under the influence of the Amalgamated Society, and some of them admit that they are members. Ido not know that the soptisoner has done so. It k only since Monday the began to assemble round my premises. I do not amend them many who were formerly in my : e ar, They do not molest me. r. the first place, my client state , distinctly that be never had nor had he any intention to have any thing to do with the Amalgamated Society. The first origin of the unpleasantness was in consequence of Mr. Price, the .foreman, having told him to request the sasistauce of Win terborne and Gruom to do something in the boring of • bracket, and they refused to do so; he was obliged to go and complain to the foreman before they consented to do so. He afterwards wanted some flocks, and asked them to assist him in climbing up to got them, which they also refused. They then had words on both aides, which almost ap proached to a quarrel. As to the assault, he never threw the bolt, nor had he any intention to injure the man at all. I have witnesses to show that the cue fell from above by accident, and ii appears from complainant's own statement that it did not strike him. The only evidence to connect the prisoner with the throwing of the bolt is, that he was smiling at the time. Mr. Ingham—And put his finger to his note. Mr. Smith—lt was natural, in inch a place as that, if anything was thrown at the complainant, that the defend ant, remembering the words they had had before, should laugh and jeer. I submit that as to the bolt, there is no evidence on which to convict my client. His putting his thumb to his noes and stretching out his fingers was only in dicative of enjoying the sport of a man being annoyed who had jest been quarrelling with him. It is reasonable to presume that one of the apprentices who belong to the society may have thrown it without being seen. John Wilson, an apprentice, sworn—As I was moving some timber in the paddle shop, the oil-an fell down near Winterborne's feet. I do not belong . to the Amalgamated Society, nor have I been in court daring this inquiry. Winterborne—lt was impossible foe the can to have Dome from above. _ _ " Wathl;;—Thla young man has been in court during the whole inquiry, as one of the Whom can prove. Henry Tilcher another apprentice—l remember Wilma knocking down t he can. I aomatirass speak to the amalga mated men. By Kr. Iffehler—l have no direction to speak to them. Jolla Jihmoon, another apprentice, proved the quarrel as to the Wig of She bracket. dilteast—ln this ease, I cents to the conclusion that was the parses whit threw dm ma, and also that ite is the posse who as a punkas Osession threw the bolt. The widows as to dm sow is this :—.Wiatalsone tweeze distinctly that he Is the pawn who threw it, and Oreosa says it could not be thrown from above, as it came in • laninontal direction. The witnesses for the defence say that it was kneekod down from above by accident. The only way I ma reersacile the evidence is this. The can may have 11•01 knocked from above at one date, and May at another time have been picked up by defendant, and thrown by kiss in the manner described. That I believe is die real stuns of the case, and the two sett/ of witnesses are speaking to different inn/actions. The bolt struck Winterborne on the back of the head, and came is a direction from the place where the prisoner was stand jag, and there was no other person near, and the defendant mad* a motion with his hand. Let us see what must have been the motive. We find that the workmen of Meters. Blyth, for some reason or other, are eat of work for up wards of • month. On Monday the premises are reopened, and • great number of new lands are takers on, and a large eoncousee of persons, calling themselves the Amalgamated an., enabled, some of whom were presto:m.lly employed by Meer,. Birk; and when Winter/home end the others are going in, the prisoner pants them out, and the men cuddle call them " nobsticks," "blacklegs," end so forth. Then, on Tuesday morning, Winterborne finds some planks coveting • pit removed, and in treading on it he dips, down • spoor of sin or eight feet, and got serietedy *ken. There is no evidence to show that the primer had anything to do with it; but no man of I °oases ewes ma doubt bat that it was done by some per son eunweited with the people °snide, whose object, beyond all guntiss, swan is _continually annoying those men whistlers lo wadi for Blyth. I therefore entertain no doubt that One two maul% were committed for the purpose of making it usatmlbstable for the men to continue working ; and I consider it my duty to order him to pay • fine of U. for the AM sessult ; and, with respect to the other, I shell require him to dud two good sureties of 101. each to keep the pease * three months. With respect to those outside, the_petlee must de their duty. ma gertim then left the court, and several of the police went sits amongst {the amalgamated men, who were joined is groups. As soon as defendant paid the fine and feud hell, they bore him off triumphantly. A public meeting of tho operativo engineers was acid at the Free Trade-hall Mancherter, on Thursday evening, at which about six thousand persons were present. Mr. W. Cooyngham, of Brighton, was called to the chair. Resolutions protesting against the coons taken by the em ployers, pledging the workmen against a resumption on these terms, and calling on all classes to aid the men in ob taining their rights were unanimously adopted. A motion was also carried to the effect that the establishment of co operative workshops was the only means of successfully opposing the tyranny of the employers. THE LATE ACCIDENT AT BRIGHTON.--On tho ad journed inquest into this melancholy case, after a long con sultation, the jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death." They added an esprouion of opinion that a simi lar accident was to be apprehended at the other gate, in consequence of the hinges being of cast iron, and they re commended that the present binges be replaced by bingo' of wrought iron, or that such measures be taken by the local commissionen as they may deem neseesary to protect the publlo from any recurrence of such accident. Miss Langridgr, who although frightfully bruised, was not dan gerously injured, is recovering; sad Mr. Bherrifs recovery ts now confidently an . icipated. fO, , 3 .
