THE EURESSS THURSDAY EVENI;NG, MARCH 31, 1844. IREL.t.ND. (now ous owl consorovoirt.) DUBLIN, Maws 29. The Freeman's Journal of this morning announce* the gratifying intelligence that there is every pro apect of a breach being made at the next election in that compact little phalanx of toryisin familiarly known as " the Dublin six," and comprising the members for the county, city, and university. The Hon. Charles Wilite, son of Lord Annaly, has been received, it is said, in such a manner by the elec tors of the county of Dublin as to make it almoet certain that he will be returned the tirat oppor tunity. It is also confidently expected that some effort will be made by the liberal party to contest the university against Mr. Anthony Lefroy, whose claims to represent such a constituency are gene rally acknowledged to be hereditary rather than personal. Two county chairmanships of the first-class (those of Kerry and Limerick) have just become vacant, by the death of Christopher Coppinger, Q.C., and the resignation of Mr. Robert Tighe. The Mail announces that the vacancies have been filled up by the appointment of Charles Hemphill, Q.C., and Charles Kelly, Q.C. The latter is • Roman ca tholic gentleman of high character, ' both personally and professionally. Mr. ilemphill's qualifications are alike unquestionable, and he has the addi tional " claim " of having twice contested the bo rough of Cashel, unsuccessfully, though on " cor rect " principles. As the judgeships of the Superior Courts here are most commonly the rewards of political services is parliament, so are the chair manships suitably administered as a solace to dis appointod candidates, and as an acknowledgment of good intentions frustrated by the perversity of electors.

Hos i zDungey, 37, was indicted for a felonious assault xpoe Weeks. Mr. A. i Wood prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by lir. 'tibia'. The picesontrix in this ow is a married woman, the wife of a gentleman's coachman, raiding at Park-road, Brixton. The poisoner was a married man, and he was on intimate terms with the propecutrix and her husband, and was is the habit of visiting them, and it appeared that be had upon aw oeaseies previous to the tranlaction complained kamed these procute*, and she complained to her hus band, bat the prisoner seemed to have apologised for what he had does, and the parties continued on frieedly terms. On the day named in the indictment the husband of the ' premolar* was engaged at his master's house, and she was aloe*, and it appeared that the primmer went to the home, and that he, according to her evidence, fins pat his arm round her neck and kissed her, and then proceeded to com mit the act with which he was charged, in spite of her aim and resistance. The prisoner then asked her to forgive him, but she said she should not do so, and as he was leaving she told him to go home, _and that he was a very bad man. The most siagalst pert of the cam appeared to be that on the same night the dream was alleged to have been committed the prisoner went to the house of the pro ' secutrix, accompanied by his wife, as though nothing bad bhapiensd. but, in consequence of the complaint that was by the pressen** he was shortly afterwards taken into custody and committed upon the present charge. The prosecutrix wave her evidence in a very clear and becoming manner, and the oniy damning fact that was elicited in crosernamination wee, that her first child was born three ninths alter her marriage. The jury, after a good deal of delibsestios, found the prisoner &like , of 'hennaing the prceecutrix with intent to commit the felonious act of which be was excused. They added that they did not believe that the prosecute* was a consenting party to what had taken place, but they doubted whether the offence charged bad been completed. The Chief Baron said that they could not find the primer ' guilty of an assault with intent to commit the particular felony charged, bat they might, if they pleased, find him guilty of an attempt only, and if they were not satisfied of this they must acquit him altogether. The jury then returned a verdict of Not Guilty, but the prisoner . was ordered to enter into sureties to appear at the sett moues to answer a charge of weskit, if an tadictment fur that offence should be preferred against him. NORFOLK CIRCUIT.—NORWICH, MARCH 30. (Brian the Load Mist Jostles and a Special Jury.) DIXIVIS AND AIOTIIII r. TILL GALT L&WITAN BALLWAT COXPANT. Mr. Keane, Q.C., and Mr. Markby were for the plaintiffs; Mr. O'Malley, Q.C., and Mr. Balm. for the deendaate. The plaintiffs were the executor of a Mr. Dennis, and they claimed compensation from the defendants under Lord CAM bell's Act, for the losses sustained by the mother of the deceased from Ilia death. ()a the :3rd of August last an excursim train, while returning from Hunstanton to Lynn, ran over a now which had strayed on the line ; the train was thrown off the mils, and amoopt several who were killed was the deceased Dennis. The lir= paid 1001. into court, and the question to be decided was, whether this sum was sufficient. According to the plantiffs' case Undimmed, who at the time of his death was 53 years old, was • merchant, ship-owner, and commienon agent, at King's Lynn, living in a large and comfortable house at the rate of 3001. or 400/. a year. His mother, who was 78 years of age, lived with him, and, as be was a bachelor, kept house for him ; his household further comprised • niece and a female servant. He was possessed of some house property, and by his shipping business made about 250/. a year. Mr. O'Malley, on the other hand, contended that the mother was living solely on the bounty of the eon, who might at any time have married, and that as the decea sed had left her a life interest in his property including upwards of 1001. a year from real estate, she bad 'actually gained by his death a comfortable independence in the place of • pie- carious subsistence on charity. The income the deceased was said to have derived from his ships was fictitious, for it was obtained by taking an average of the earnings of each ship over periods of time to calculated as to exclude heavy lanes, and without making allowance for insurance. On, ship, the Kohn of which were included in the present claim, was actually lost before the death of the deceased, and in the case of another ship the average of profits was taken over the singular period of 4 years, while if it had been five years • very large loss would have been included. ' The railway company bad settled claims arising out of this action with liberality, this being the only case which had come into court. The Lord Chief Justice, in summing up, pointed out that the ships when damociated from the business of the deceased would be of much less value, and what they would sell for after Donnie' death would not be • fair measure of their value in hia life. 'The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff►—damajes NO/. beyond the gum paid into court. FULL= r. SCTTON AND OTH.ZIB. -TILE MCNDIVILD POACH• MU CASE. The plaintiff resides in the pariah of St. Peter's, Thetford, and is described as • higgler. The &feeds's* the Rev. Augustin' Sutton, the Rev. James Mimi Park, and the Hon. Francis Baring, are magistrates of the conaty of Nor. folk. The circumstances out of which this action (which has created considerable interest in the county) arose ere as follows: On the 14th of November, 1862, James Newland, an inspector of police, obtained • summons against the Rlaintiffi under the Act for the Prevention of Poaching (3ti Viet, e. 114, a. 2). In pursuance of this summons the plaintiff appeared before the defendants sitting at petty sessions at Xundford in this county. The evidence of the police constable was to the effect that on the 11th of November he saw the plaintiff riding in • cart, he stopped him and asked if be had any game in his p01002■1011; be said belied two or three rabbits. Re searched the cart and found io • sack three rabbits which the plaintiff said • man pee him, and in another part of the cart, a hare, • rabbit, and • part- ridge. The plaintiff, when asked how be came by these, said nothing. In noes-ezamination the policeman stated that his reason f-r searching was that the plaintiff was a convicted felon and the wont character in Ttietfoid, that the rabbits were hulked, and that no net. or engines were in the cart. A polies-constable named Andrews, who was present when the cart was searched, gave similar evidence. David Palmer, • gamekeeper, deposed that he had seen the plaintiff on different byroads on the 11th of November, but had not seen him on land off the road. On this evidence the defendants held that the offence was proved, and the plaintiff was sentenced to pay a tioe of 51., and U. ss. 6d. costa, or to be imprisoned for two months. Mr. Walpole, the solicitor who appeared for the plaintiff before the magistrates, thereupon applied for • case fur the opinion of the Court of Queues Beach. This the defendants refused to giant, thinking that the proper course was for the plaintiff to appeal. The plaintiff then applied to the late Mr. Justice ightman, who granted a summons calling on the magistrates to show cause why they should not state a case, and Mr. Justice Mellor after wards ordered them to do so. The magistrates then stated • case, which was remitted back to them to ascertain if they wished to obtain the opinion of the court u to the suffi ciency of the evidence, or merely upon the legal question whether. to support such a convictiion, it was nunnery to prove that the party had actually been on the laud from which it was supposed the game bad been obtained. The defendants then stated that the question they wished to submit was, whether to justify the conviction of tl e appellant it was necessary to prove the actual trespassing of the appellant on land of Mr. Birch in search of game, and also to prove that the game firiad in and upon his, the appellant's, cart was the game unlawfully obtained by such. trespass, and that they did not intend to submit to thecourt the question whether, upon the evidence, they ought to have convicted the appellant. The Court of Queen's Bench, upon this, refused to grant • rule for setting aside their coo- viction, the Lord Chief Justice observing that what had been dons might have bees oppressive on tiediart of the magistrates, and might make tbem civilly or criminally, as the cue might be. ' Thh e plaintiff was then summoned again before the magis trates to show cause why the hoe was not paid. The plain tiff appeared before the defendants, and the summons was adjourned to enable the defendants to take the opinion of their attorneys as to whether they ' could remit the hoe. The attorneys advised that as the conviction was affirmed the hoe had better be en- forced. The plaintiff was then summoned to appear before the magistrates, and as he did not pay, be was committed to priaoo for two months. Alter being released from prison he commuted this action.

COO= AND OTRUL. . _ The plaintiff was a woman In humble life whow maiden name was liargarstStevensixi, and the defendants were the executors of the Lie Mr. Walter M'Gregor, of the Vaux hall foundry, Liverpool. In 1839, the plaintiff was mar ried to Jame' Forrester, a man of colour, a relative of one of the proprietors of the foundry, and who was employed there. One of the partners in the foandry, Mr. Forrester, took a great Wallet in the plaintiff and her husband, as did also Mr. M'Gregor. The plaintiff and her husband lived for several years in Liverpool and in London on terms of tie utmost oonfidence, but when they were in London in 1847, a woman who it appeared had ben pre viously married to Forrester came upon the some, and air. tied him off. He did not remain away very long , however, but returned to the plaintiff and lived with her until 1865. In this year Forrester again deserted the plaintiff, but had sufficient good feeling about him to leave her 3001. for the support of his children. A ?airtime of this money was de pouted in Mews. Boned • bank (Liverpool), and as there was some difficulty about !Awing it the plaintiff consulted Mr. Walter MSOregor, who obtained the money and Nand it for the plaintiff's benefit, paying her Interest, and admixing portions of the principal at intermix This state of things went on for some time, bat in September, 1862, Mr. li'Grego stated that he should no loner pay interest on the remaining amount (200/.) bold by him, and that he would hand this sum over to the plain upon her signing • document to hold him free from any farther claim. Before any agreement was drawn up, however, Mr. M'Oragor died, and when the plaintiff applied to his exe cutors (the defendants) for the money they declined to re cognise her claim. This antic.° was therefore brought to enforce it. The defendants pleaded that Mr. M'Gregor's estate was not liable, but that the money should personal over from the firm. Mr. Brett, Q.C., and Mr. Aston, were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Holton for the defendants. The awe was but partially heard. when the defame was withdrawn, end s verdict for the plaintiff weed to.

The action. although brought nominally by the plalatiffs, John Bremner John Alexander Bremner, and the parialtionere of Pre4wich, near Manchester, for the purpose of recovering from the de fendant, Edward Hull, the amount of a church rate, was brought in reality for the purpose of trying and gasbag • i ques ti on as to the validity of a custom n the pariah of Prest wich is the election and appointment of churchwardens. The parish of Prestwich, which is of considerable extent, was divided into a number of townships, originally six, but now five. The custom existing for some time had been for the parishioners of each of the townships, except the township of Prestwich, to present a hat of perilous to the rector of the parish for him to select a churchwarden from. The exception in the township of Prestwich was, that there the outgoing churchwarden, the pariabionere who had served the aboe during the pant year, without any meeting of the parishioners at all, presented to the rector one or more persons, at their own &meiotic)°, and out of those WIDOW the rector appointed the church warden. The outgoing churchwarden could so present himself, and it frequently did so happen. The custom bad now to be proved by usor. The question of law raised was that the custom was not • good one. It was far the learned judge, reserving the point for the court above, to deter mine to rule whether the custom was • valid one in point of law. After the examination of several witnesses, including the Rev. H. IL Birch, rector of Preetwioh, end formerly tutor to the Prince of Wales, the jury returned a verdiettfor the plaintiffs, with leave to defendant to move the court above on the point of law raised.

It appeared that the van was being driven slowly along the 3tinories by the carman, when a witness named Charles 3ltiodoze, and his brother, who were standing at the door of their shop, saw a man not in custody go up to the tail of the van and lift off a chest of tea, which he walked away with. The prisoeer followed behind the men, and on reach• ing the Circus the prisoner took the chest, and they both exchanged hats. One of the witnesses went op to them and stopped them, and asked thew what they were going to do with the tea, when the prisoner dropped it and said, " Does this tea belong to you!" cad the other man ran off. The prisoner, however, was secured and taken to the station. The chest of tea weighed nearly a hundredweight, and was worth about 12/. no primmer, who rid Bolling to the charge, woo com mitted for trial. Philip Breim, 21, a German, who is well known at this court as an " ofbce sneak," was charged with stealing two silver saltapoons and a silver tea-spools from the house 172, Lesdeuhall-street, the property of lira. Case. The prosocutrix, who resided on the premises of 172, Leadenhalletreet, left her sitting-room yesterdaymorning foe a short time, and on returning through the kitchen, which is on the opposite side of the landing, she saw the door d the sitting room, which on leavinj she hod pulled to after her, standing wide open, aced on gong into the room saw the prisoner apparently males away from the cup board. She salted him what be wasted there, and he said, "These," holding out the two saltopooes and the tea spoon, which be held in his hand, and at the same time he made a rush pest her, giving her a push, which threw her to the other aide of the landing. She railed out, but the pri soner managed to get into the street, where he was, how ever, stopped by the constable.

Several inhabitante of Gordon sod Russell squares and neighbourhood, who had recently been robbed in a similar mamma, attended to identity the prisoner. On Tuesday night the prisoner celled at No. 45, Easton. square, and handing a book to the housemaid who opened the door, desired her to take it upstairs. She asked him where he came from, and he said from Wakefield's. Sup. posing that to be th e name of a bookseller, she took the book upstairs u directed, and gave it to her mistress, who was in the drawing•room. Nut having ordered any such book, she at once suspected that something was wrong, and directed the servant to run down and stop the boy, adding, "Be quick, or you will find the hall robbed already." The servant went down al quickly u she mild, but before dce could reach the passage the prisoner had run out into the street, closing the door behind him. She ran after him into Gordonequare, where he was stopped by a policeman. to whom she gave him in custody. He had with him four silk umbrellas and a coat which he bad taken from the hall. Mr. Eugene Dumaraia, a law student, lodging at the above addrees, identified the coat and coed the umbrellas as his property. The coat cost him 5/. 5.., and the um brella If. Is. The other three umbrellas were alsoidentified. lons:rotor liubbard said these robberies had been very numerous of late, and no doubt a large number of them bad been committed by the priaooer. The book delivered to the housemaid by the prisoner was ► hymn book, doubt- lees stole. from some church. Prisoner was remanded for further evidence. MARLBOROUGH,STREET.

Aldridge, 205 C, said the prisoner was quite sober at the time. The primmer had nothing to say in answer to the charge. Mr. Arnold committed her for trial, and said that the woman who had given Mr. Birch information should hare her expenses, but neither Mr. Birch nor Mr. Griffin—they had acted very foolishly, and in a most isciautiona moaner.
