Bitting at Nisi Prim in London.—(Before Mr. Justice Bytes and a Common Jury.) COUGIHIN V. A7TRIDOZ-SLANDIR AND AMAULT. ________ ________ _ The plaintiff was employed in selling starch upon com mission, end he lived at Croydon. The defendant was the son of a publican at Beddington ; and on the evening of Sunday, the 6th October last, the plaintiff and some friends went into the Running Horse, at Croydon. The defendant was there, and io the proem* of twenty or thirty of the plaintiff's neighbours he used very abusive language to the plaintiff, said that he had taken a ring from his (the de fondant's) handkerchief, and:he was a thief. He also shook his fist in the plaintiff's face, but he did not touch him, nor did the plaintiff say in his evidence that he was in fear of being struck. tinder thew circumstances the plain tiff claimed damages for slander and also fur an assault, and the defeodast at lint pleaded that the alleged slander was tree, bat subsequently he withdrew that plea and relied upon "Not guilty." His lordship ruled that there was evidence to sustain the court for slander, and also that there was evidence of an assault, although there was clearly no battery. The jury found for the plaintiff—damages W. DAMELS V. HMITR-A TAMILS QUARREL . Tho plaintiff, Mrs. Daniels, ens the sister of the defen dant, and ahe claimed damages for insult, for false impri sonment, and for troves% . . . . Mr. Liston appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Serjeaat Petersdorff and Mr. Sleigh for the defendant. The plaintiff's counsel stated that in the middle of 1861 James Smith, another brother of the plaintiff, returned! from America, and they took a baker's business as partoen ' in Salisburyatreet, Bermondsey, the plaintiff furnishing 461. for that purpose. Shortly afterwards James shot him self and was taken to Guy's Hospital, where the defendant maw him, and having obtained his signature to a document, he went back claiming to have the right to dispose of the business. A scuffle took place, in the course of which the defendant knocked the plaintiff down with • stick, and again struck her, so that she was Lid up for ten days. For this assault the defendant was taken before a magistrate and fined 15!. Thereupon he gave the plain tiff in change for stealing four bank notes, the property of James, but the police refused to entertain the charge. Another matter was that the plaintiff was married in 1838 to • person named Daniels, who deserted her and went away with a servant. In 1850 the plaintiff married• man named Kirkaldy, who also deserted her, and afterwards she married a Mr. Payne. Subsequently she wu tried for bigamy, and waa sentenced to six weeks ' imprisonment. liis Lordship, atter hearing the plaintiff's case, held that there was oo evidence upon the count for false imprison ment, but that there was evidence aa to the counts for assault and trover. The defence was that the defendant had only interfered at the request of James to protect his property ; and that when going upstairs to get two boxes, which the plaintiff did rot claim to have any lutenist in, she dew at him in • frenzy, and tore his coat, struck, and scratched him. The defendant raised his stick to keep her off by a sort of panes routines ; but he truck her, or attempted to strike her, though her head might accidentally have come in col lision with his stick. It was true he had been arid for the assault, but this arose from the hurried manner in which such charges were beard at police courts, aid from the plaintiff not being able himself to give evidence there, and also from his counsel, upon whom he relied, being absent Another circumstance was, that the plaintiff had been re putedly offered back her 45/., which she herself said she bed lent toJsmes, but that she refused to receive it, saying that she would have 1001., for she intended to make a profit by the transaction. His lordship ruled that the conviction at the police court disposed of the count for assault, so that the only remain ing question was the Mover. The jury found • verdict for the plaintiff—damages 40s. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—FEn. 14. Sittings et Nisi Prim at —(Before the Lord Chief Bozos sad Swint Juries.) BRAME T.

FOBSFER asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether be ooald inform the house of the present position of the negotiation with Belgium fee a new commercial treaty with that country ; and if, in 00111111• quince of the commercial negotiations between Prussia sad there was a probability of a revision of the duties levied in the Zoliverem on British manatee. tures. He believed them was great doubt felt throughout the manufacturing districts as to whether any negotiation wee going on at all. Mr. BAINES confirmed the statements and views of Mr. Forster. Mr. NEWDEGATE took occasion to advert to the dis astrous effects of the French treaty upon the manufacturers sad operative claims in Coventry. Mr. TURNER spoke of the distress in the cotton die tricts in Booth Lancashire, and complained of the duty im posed on the export of raw cotton in India. Lord PALf&b.RSTON, in reply to Lord A. Clierehill, mid that r missiou hid been sent to the Sing of Dahomey to endeavour to induce bim to abandon his inhuman prac tices, which had not met with success, and it was always difficult to prevail upon a savage people to forego satire customs. No opportunity, however, would be kat of re newing the endeavours. With regard to the slave nude, the African chiefs would not relinquish It unless they were convinced that legitimate trade would yield most profit. In answer to Mr. Forster, he said negotiations were going on between her Majesty's and the Belgian . governments, which were conducted in the most amicable spirit, and, if successful, would place Great Britain upon the footing, and give us all the advantages, of the most favoured nation. He discussed at some length the matters referred to in the speech of Hr. Forster ' paying a tribute, in the course of his observations, to the duieterested conduct of Mr. Cobden. He assured Mr. Newdepte that he was entirely mistaken in attribu ting the dingoes is Coventry to the French treaty ; its true calm was to be traced toe law of human nature—the fluc tuations of fashion. The house went into a Committee of Supply, when the chairman was ordered to report progress. THE HIGHWAYS BILL. On the order 6ilil4;;C;ilCf7P;ii;g;i7ll; Highways Bill, Mr. BARROW moved to defer the second reading for six month,. lie argued that the bill was uncalled for and unnecessary ; that it would introduce a sytem of cen tralisatioa sad bureaucracy, and would abrogate the right. of parishes to meow their own affairs. This aineadment was seconded by Mr. HODOKDISON, who subscribed to the objections urged by Mr. Barrow. The precast system, which the bill would destroy, though ill administered, was theoretically right. Mr. BARB said his observation sad experience had led him to a ocarelueion opposite to that of the two hon. mem bers. The highways were is • very bad oxidition, and under the system proposed by the bill they would be much improved, with • saving of money to the ratepayers. air G. GREY repeated what he had stated when be moved for leave to bring in the bill, that it wee identical is principle with the former bill, which had been alarmed by the house, and similar to it in moat of its details. In re plying to objections, he insisted upon the necessity of • me sure of this kind, and expressed his belief that, ulti mately, when the roads were once put in • state of repair, the proposed system would prove economical. With the understanding that if the bill were referred to • select com mittee, the details only would be considered, and there would be no delay, he should not object to its being so re ferred. Upon a division the amendment was negatived by 141 to 30, sad the bill wee reed a second time. air R. moved for leave to bring in a bill for the better regulation of markets and fairs in Ireland, which embodied, he said, the recommendations of the select coin. Mites of last year being substantially the bill reported by that committee. By this measure, 'Web met with very general support in Ireland, the evils complained of con nected with the tolls would be remedied. He mentioned instances of irregularity and frauds in the existing state of the law, the variety of weights and measures, and stated the main features of the bill, which would, he mid, get rid of a system moat injurious to the people of Ireland. Several Irish members spoke in commendation of the bill, and leave wee given to introduce it. POOH RELIEF. On the motion of Mr. VILLIERS, a select committee to inquire into the subject of the relief of the poor in England and Wales was ordered to be appointed. POOR RELIEF (IRELAND.) Sir R.. PEEL moved for leave to bring in a bill to amend the laws in force for the relief of the destitute poor io Ire land. The acts in fore* for that purpose were four, the last of which was that of 1851, known as the dispeasary act—a meet useful measure. Up to 1847 there was no outdoor relief in Ireland, but then the quarter acre clause was introduced, and from that tune perilous occu pying a quarter acre of land could not claim relief. The bill prapoiled in the first place to repeal the quarter acre clause, which did not exist either in Scotland or Eng land. It proposed also to provide for the admission of poor persona not actually destitute to workhouses fur medial treatment, and it gave power to relieve orphan and destitute children out of workhouses. This last wee a provision which bad been proposed by successive goverumenta, and the im portance of which would be appreciated when it was remem bered that the rate of mortality among children was 47 per mei in workhouses, whereas out of doors it was not more than 18 per cent. The expense of thin system of relief would not be more than Si. $ year, or about the earns as relieving the child is the workhouse. The only other leading feature in the bill was that in the electors of guardians it limited the number of proxies that one person might hold to ten, and I"l7.that they should bold good for five years. ItENNESSY said, in England the Poor-law Com missioners regarded persons of 15 pears of ace as children, and the great mistake of their legislation with respect to Ireland in the poor-law department was, that they had for Ireland a code which, is is most important particulars, was the reverse of what prevailed in England. He thought they ought to take the age of the children in Ireland at 15 years. Mr. VANCE trusted the right lion. gentleman would sot be led to make any alteration in his original scheme. After a few weeds from Mr. Gaoling, Mr. POLLMM- IiIIQUHART sad Mr. LIFIPAY, leave WY given to bring in the bill, and it was afterwards read a first time. THE VOLUNTARY COMMUTATION OF CHURCH Ou the motion of Mr. ALOOCK, lame was given to bring in a bill for the Voluntary Commutation of Chntr.h Hates. and it was afterwards read a list time. The house adjourned at ballsaili RAILWAY AND PUBLIC CONTANIM Ir PAULL =Fr. —Yesterday, before the examiners, the bill of the Dulais Valley Mineral Railway, for the construction of railways in the counties of Glamorgan and Brecon, sod to raise 90,000 f. for the purpose, was declared to have com plied rich the standing orders of parliament.

Pro- THE FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE WATERLOO- - 16;th: Yesterday afternoon Mr. Berjeant Payne opened an inquiry, at St. Thomas's Hospital, into the cause of the death of Edwin James Robbins, aged 27, a carver and gilder, one of the unfortunate individuals who was precipi tated: with a number of others, a distance of 30 feet, from the giving way of an iron grating in the front of No. 199, Waterloo-road, the facts of which have been fully re ported in our columns. The jury having been sworn, the following evidence was adduced. George Gatehouse, bootmaker, Watorloo.road, that about one o'olock Mood ay last he heard a d = hence at the house of Mrs. Clayton, 199, Waterloo-road. The disturbance caused • crowd to assemble in front of that house and et 198; there were nearly 200 persons present there was as iron area is front of 198, which gave way, and the pawns, about 30 is number, fell 30 or 40 feet. The lower part of the places where the houses are built consists of the back yards of homes in the Belvedere-road. There is no thoroughfare from the kitchen to the lower part of the yards. He kuew the demand Robbins. He was one of those who felL When he was extricated he eomplaissd very mach, and said his leg was broken. The house in which witness lived, 199, was the same as the other. The area grating appeared to him to rest upon brickwork. and was embedded in the arches over which the mid is constructed. The area railing always appeared to be secure, and he never noticed anything to cause any ap prehension of danger ; the only cause he could amain fur it was the sudden assemblage of • large number of pezaoos. He had seen as large a number of persons present MI the =Yin of • fire a few doors off. He attributed the accident in some measure to the violenos used by Mr. Cole, the broker in breakiag open the door of the next house, which shook , the stone work. _ . Mr. Hugh Macintosh, one of the district surveyors of Lambeth, said—He was only appointed ill March last. His attention had not been 01111111 d to the houses in question, and he only knew them generally. His attention was not.called to them until the present accident. He had since found by the books that a complaint wee made in Isb9 about the railing, but that was extra of lciaL The public pathway was entirely independent of the place where the gratings were. They lighted t h e back of the buildings called Commercial•buildings and were private property. The distance from the essement of the houses in the Waterloo-roed and those beneath is Wi feet. He had since examined the area and stonework where the &coldest took place. It consists of a large slab, which is let into a house front wall three or four inches and rests on the walls of the approach to Waterloo-bridge for a passage, a a narrow piece of stone running the entire length of the front of the houses. The iron grating is in front of the window next to the narrow slip of stone in front of the shops, and resting on another slip of stone on the bridge approach. The entrance Mose was nine feet tiro by five feet four. The large stone fell, and upon examination of the pieces he found an old flaw had existed in the stone from north to south. When the large stone fell it carried with it the narrow slip of moue in front of the shop, and also the iron grating. In his opinion the accident wee attributa ble to the flaw in the large slate stone, and the number of persons assembled upon it ; it was just possible that the vibration caused by the breaking open the door might have accelerated the accident. By a Juror— Where the accident took place was extra judicial, and out of the control of the powers of the vestry ; they could do no more than give notice to the owners, as the pavement was private property. By Mr. Walker—The vestry had no authority to inter. (en. All they could do was to give notice to the owners. He was of opinion that the liidjacent stonework and iron gratings were perfectly safe. Mr. Walker said it was important to know whetter the Dag stones resting on the walls of the bridge highway were Ws- *Same —I considered they were. Mr. Gatehouse here said, that since the accident he had received a notice directed to the landlord, sigoed by Sir Richard Mayne, directing that the approach ghoul be carried over a rced arch. . . _ Yr. Serjeaot Yayne , paring reed the notion asked Mr. Macintosh whether it would be possible to make a pathway over sack an arch t _ _ Mr. llaeintosb—No doubt it could be done. Mr. Colbert, who said be wail connected with the building I profession, deposed that his sisters resided in the house No. 199. There are two doors to the house. The landing-stone leads to the private door of one house and the shop door of the next house. He had observed defects in the grating,snd the " joddles" by which they were secured, and pointed out the &sager to several papaw. He had since examined the pavement, and was of opicion that it we. most insecure. Evidence we. this adduced as to the braking in of the adjoining house by a piece of timber. Mr. Robbins, of Waterloo-road, oarirerand gilder, deposed that the deceased was his eon. He was not present at the time of the accident. In his opinion, the wall upon which the stonework rested was soil safe, sod he believed, if the jury sew it, they would be of the mine opinion. Medical evidence was given that the deceased died from internal rupture of the entail intestines, causing indamms tion of the abdomen. iiii;i:p;il;;;T the inquiry, the coroner complained that Mr. Jones, the proprietor, was not present. Mr. Robinson, the barrister, said he represented him. The Coroner—l will not hear you if he is not present. The Coroner then said he did not think there was suM. cleat to creates criminal liability on the part of Mr. Joins, or on that of the broker. The inquiry was adjourned to view the spot. MURDER IN DEBBY. A shocking murder took place iu Derby between 7 and 8 o'clock on Thursday evening. An Irish girl, named Elise Murray, and who raided in Agard-street, had been " courted" by one Richard Thorley, who worked for Mr. Frost, at the iron works in Canal-street, but he had been out of work for several weeks past. It appears that on Saturday night he had words with the girl, was very bois terous, and broke open the door. On Tuesday night, he had a disturbance in the Corn Market, and threatened to stab a man. He seems to have been a very diasatis lied character, and it is supposed that the demon of jealousy took possession of him, for to-night he took a razor from his mother's hewn, rushed to the residence of the girl, in Agard•street, and deliberately cut her throat. The scene was awful, the deceased's throat being literally cut from ear to ear. The murderer escaped, but the policemen are on his track. From a wood edition of the Derty Rrporter, pub- lished yesterday, we learn that from the time of the murder to the capture of the murderer rather more than three hours elapsed. The murderer, after having passed the night in the lock-up, was very cool and collected this morning. It appears that, after leaving Chapman* in Abbey-street, the murderer called at Mr. Birch's, the George the Fourth, where his hand, which was cut, was bound up. and he thew left, nobody in the house knowing what be had done. When taken he did not seem at all dis concerted, but said he bad known the girl about five mouths, and had been doing what was right to her. Whoa he went to her the other night she not only called him • nuisance, bet said he was a --, and that she would hit him. It appears that he had called the girl out of the house, and t ha t whilst in the act of caressing her he cut her throat. All she was beard to exclaim was, "Oh God !" He thee threw the razor down and ran away. A great crowd collected near the spot, and the greatest excite ment prevailed. On Tuesday night the prisoner as. io a row in the Coro-market., and threatened to stab a man, bot the interference of the police prevented him carrying his threat into execution. Since he has been out of employ he has occasionally sold oysters.

The market is reported to have beer. ex. tremely buoyant, and many buyers have been taking all the lots they could lay their heeds on up to Id. advance. Prices close strong and are increasing in firmness, the clo, iag of mills having been found to have told in giving hrrx.. nese to yarns, though it has not yet had the same effe c t upon cloth. Everybody has been asking more for cloth to. day, and sellers of 40duch India shirting' demand Ad. t o 4ed. per piece more than on Tuesday, and though this h a , stopped business so that there has been little or nothing doing, yet an impression is growing among manufacturers that before long prices will advance considerably ; it IA necessity, in fact, they say, or they moat soon close their mills altogether.
