THE NASSAU BALLOON.-MIRACULOUS Iit3CAPE OF Tin; xtIONAUTS. LYE evening, serval hundreds entembled in Vauxhall-gardens, to witntre the !ascent of the Nassau Whim. At seven o'clock, the b dloon having been suffi ciently inflated, Mr. Charles Green, the veteran remnant; Mrs. Green, his wire ; Mr. and Mrs Ones, his nephew and his wife ; Mira Oren, and Miss Gmenne, of Vas:ball gardens ; Ur. Criewshey,tl.... Iron 1616104; Mr. Stephens, Ur. Farmer, Captain Osdn, anti Mr. Pierer, making altogether eleven individuals, got into the ear, and on the hoop attached to the balloon, and the word "all right" having beta given, the ropes were needn't!, and the ponderous nubble mounted late the air in very rood style. The balloon pro ceeded to a north-eastern o'llo4, but it was soon observed that it was dr.cending rapidly. Mr. Green, who was mated in the car, perceineg the extreme danger, commenoed emptying the sand bap of :aline as quickly as he pomiibly could, but even this did not protect the gradual sinking. On passing intr. the St. Georges-road, near West-tquare, the balloon landed on the roots of the houses, Nos. 94 and 96. on the north side of the landon-read. The ear, in which seven of the aeronauts were stated, struck the front of the house wiih considerable violence, 90 inch sr., that three of the persons who were statd.rg on the hoop were thrown forward on the roof, which fortunately happened to be a flit one, but the fourth clung to th- network' f the lagoon. The machine tot ing thus relieved trom the weight of three of its occupants, and having fortunately escaped perforation, in stantly teas into the air to a considerable altitude, when a fresh current of aircanin it is a nuttier y directim, appa rently towards Croydon. The three iadinehials, who had thus fortunately escaped, descended through • trap-door of an injoining beer-ship heaths roof, reached the 9:999:, and having procured a eab, dm* tie fest as they could to the gardens, to relieve their friends and the visitors from their painful anxiety. A good deal of injury is done to the houses in the London road, sae of which is occupied by Mr. Cross, who is a marine Mere dealer, and the other by Mr Hammond, a hair-dreaser. The coping stone for about ten or twelve feet has been tattled on to the roofs, and the chimneys are damaged, se that it will take ten or a dean of pones to ret a t o lt The friend. of** parties who had escaped with the continued in a state of much anxiety for their ultimate safety, and the return of Mr. Green, or some of the pasty, to the gardens was looked for with much interest. A messenger afterwards arrived at Vauxhall gardens, einveliag the information thee, after paring over a great portion ut the county of tient, the balloon was safely settled upon terra firma in an open field within half a mile of Stith church. THE ARCILEOLOGICAL INSTITUTE. SALISBURY. WiDIIIIBDAT. The members re assembled at eight o'clock yester day evening, for • conversaziutte, the Aargau of North ampton presiding. A paper was read by the secretary, from the Rev. B. Duke, of Lake Rouse, Wilts, in illustration of his theory as to the astronomical character of Stonehenge, and of its uses as an animal ealeadar among the Druids. The Deana( linnarono gave as interesting account of the result of researches prosecuted by him last week is the barrows in the neighbourhood of Abury. These researches esuiblished the fact, that the Romans bed need the borrows as places of sepulture long after their original tenants, the ancient Britons, had been deposited therein. For example, one of the barrows opened by the dean cootained (ragmen's of • very rude urn, of British manufacture, with the bones of • child; while, in the same barrow were the burnt bones of • person of large size, interred after the Roman fashion, and pieces of veritable Saugus ware surrounded these latter remains. In enothi r barrow, the dean found us less than 83 Rooms mint (all brass), tome of them as late as Con stantine. The learned &an pointed out that these dig. orreries disclosed a new feature in the history of the barrows in North Wilts, which were hitherto supposed to be exclu sively places of British sepulture, whereas it now sppears that they were likewise toed by the Romans, or that the natives bid gradually introduced Roman euttOms amongst them, until they had fully adopted the manners of that peo ple in respect to their mode of intermat. The table was covered with the produce of tLete researches, which excited great interest in the meeting. The dean also reported that the tunnel in prof. em under Salisbury-Lid had been ad. voiced to with , n about two feet of the centre, where the east, or deposit of runnier, is expected to be found; but that the workman had been ordered to su.pend operations until the members were present to witch the anticipated diacove ries, for which purpose the dean prepaid en excursion thither ost Wednesday next. This morals, the masher/ proceeded on their first ex cursion, carriages ethic provided to convey them to Ames bary, where they will inspect the numerous British tunnels in that neighbourhood, end afterwards vihit Stonehenge and Old Serum.

Robinson, Bag , M.P., Chairman of the Cotn mit.ee of Spanish American Bondholders. Sig,—Wo have received from the Minister of Finance of the Republic of 'Mexico, a letter dated the 13th alt., in which he writes u "Rio Excellency the President has seen, with the greatest displeasure the measure that, without authorisation and matrary to the @sprees orders of this department, you took for distribntieg throe-fourths of a dividend, charg ing 4 per cent. interest to the holders of the bonds, wider the pretext of not having sufficient fund,, when you really had sufficient hinds in your possession to have covered • dividend in the converted bonds." We think it right to state to the Committee of Spanish American Bondholder , that the whole of this allegation is of the most unfounded character. It is not true that we took the measure in question con teary to the orders of the Mexican government, tor the resin that at the time we took it we had received no <rders from the Mexican government on the subject whatever, cense quently we could not disobey orders which had not been re ceived. The facts are simply them. On the 2nd of April we received from ideltra. Baring, dc., the sum of 93,7604., ea aecount of the Mexican dividends. This ens, together with the sum previously in our hands, wee not equal to the payment of a hale yearly dividnid. Foreseeing from the BAUMs from whence this payment nude, that no further remittance on account of the dividends could be fortheimiog for some time, we im mediately ga ve nodes that, for the accommodation of the bendMiden, we would advance to them three-fourths of the dividend, oa their depositing with us the divi lend coupons, and allowing interest on such advance until the time fed paying the whole of the dividend should arrive. This con dition as to interest was Indispensable, because, as we stated at the time, being by our agreement with the Mexican go vernment bound to allow Wenn cm the fund. in our heads until the payment of a half-yeady dividend , we bad se right to assume to ourselves the power of departing tem this en • but we stated in a letter to the com mittee tZrR ese shiald submit to the Mexican government the espeidedily of not enforcing the said payment of Were& By tbie premellag we afforded to the bondholders all the seiserasedaties in our power without acting contrary to any prime, or violating env existing engagement'. gebsieneetly to this proceeding we received an order hem the - Mexican government to add it* amount of the he leant le the dividend fend, and to pay • half. yearly dividend. We immediately gave notice to the bondholders that this to allow interest on the three-fourths of the 'lamed es 'excelled. 111611 he libation of the Meiline government to pay the indeed is fell, we did not empty, beams the fends in ow basis wee eel to the unmet required for that pur pose, diet eidleg Seto the balsam due to the 'Wormiest me the kilieen mem& The adedater of Seance states that the sun in ow hands wee esibeent he pay a divi lend on the converted bonds.

LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY COMPANY. The half-yearly meeting of th e proprietors was held yes terday at the Bridge Honer Hotel, Loudon-bridge, S. Lento, Esq., the chairman of the board of directors, presiding. The report of the director* states that the amount of apnea toned to the 80th June, 1849, is 7,065,0671. The amount of additional capital expend. d dune g the put ball. year is 120,0001., of which 35,0001. was for the London. bridge station enlargement, and which, sou to be capable of accommodating any amount of waffle that might be soda p ited, would cost 150,0001. Tee directors pledge therunlyse that no capital beyond 7,200,0001. shall be raised withrut the special sanctiou of the proprietors. A resolution will be submitted at the meeting, authorising the directors to nice, by loan, 186,9011, imputing the remaining 6 per cent. not to be issued, in order to bring the capital up to the amount of 7,200,0001. Apr vula would also be brought forward to build cottages for the six hundred workmen I. the comrasy'e employment at Brighton, where lodgings are very dear, and a sufficient number of which might involve an outlay of 30,0001. The groin re c ipts for the half-year, ceding 30th June last, amounted to 214,0621., as against 194,8052 in the corresponding half year of 1848, with only 71 additional miles opened, so that the increase of 19,2571. .as almost entirely owing to the de velapment of meet on existing line. The economical charges and accommodation carried out on the Croydon and Epsom line had othalioned an inertias., of 13 per cent. in the receipts. The total expos.. for the half-year amounted to 91,9071., or a diminution of expenditure for the peat halt. year, as compared with the eorrespandir g ens of 1848, of 9,0001., while the increase in the ordinary traffic over the same Period bad been 17,3491., or 9 per cent., being an ave rage lacrosse of 6671. per week. The net amount at the credit of the revenue account for the half year ii 123.3861, whereof is appropriated for interest on loan capital 27,9681, for dividend on preferential capital 27,8201. teal, 65,7881, leaving 67,4971. available for dividend on 4,615,6341. of ordinary apical, out of which the directors recommend a dividend at the rate of 11 9e. per cent. kr the half-year, or of 14s. 6d. on the former 501. shares, amounting to 66,9271., leaving a balance to the credit of the current half-year of 6701. The directors have come to the conclusion that, in addition to meeting all charges out of revenue, it would be advisable to form a mauve fund, to give stability to the pro ps rty, and obviate injurious fluctuations in future dividends, and intimate that they consider 16,0001. will be a proper sum to set aside for the present year, and that they will re commend it at the next hall-yearly meeting. A supple mental report recommends the proprietors to increase the sum voted for direction by 7001. a year, appropriating 1,5001 , as remuneration to Mr. Laing, the managing director, and 8001. to the other members of the board. The number of fist-class puling/re carried during the half-year was 232,807 ; of second-class, 483,502; third-class, 417,189; Intel, 1,133,498. From the statement of capital accent it appeared that the total amount of capital expended to 30th June, 1849, was 6,502,5991. 15t, including 88,5621. 55.9 d. in the half year just terminated. Under the head of revenue account were the following items of expenditure:-Maintenance of way, 13,2091. 15e 3d. ; locomotive power, 24,30.51. Is.; oath and waggon repairs, alterations, and renewals of stock, 10,3382 16s.

Ild.; law charge., 1,0011. 65.; total working expenses and re• newels, 73,3051. la. 6d.; taxation expenses-bond end ether Wimps, 3061. 2s. 3.1. ; rates and taxes, 11.021/ Os. 34.; government duty, 7,2761. 7s. 11d.; total. 18,6021. 10s. Sal. ; total order both heads, 91,9071. Ils. 101. The total or. ninny traffic of the half year amounted to 210,7591.13. 61,, which amount was ihereased by fees and rents to 214,062/. 4s, 7d., applicable, as stated in the report, to a dividend or 141, 6.1 per share on the 501. shares, leaving a balance of 6701. for next half year. The CHAIRMAN, after at great length going over the various portions of the report, showed that an increase of traffic had taken place to even a greater extent than he had ventured to anticipate. Comparing the earnings and expenditure of the half.year with these of the correepanding half-year of 1848, and deducting from the earnings of the latter half-year the toll received from the SouthZestern Company, which had erased to exist, the comparison stood as follows : total earnings in the past halt-year, 214,0621., as against 194,8051. in 1848 ; expendi ture, 91,9071., as against 90,2261. ; in other words, there bad been ea infuse* in the actual earning.. k f the line of nearly 20,0001 Although the directors had to provide this half-year few 6,945,0001., whereas in the corresponding half year of 1848 they had to provide for then what less than 6,800,0002, yet the increase of traffic enabled them to de clare a divialend of 141. 6d., which was 2s 6d. per share more than was earned in the first-mentioned period, taking into account the cessation of the payment of the South East ern toll, This pre:rottenly' increase of traffic was to his mind extremely satis'ectory. In adverting to the late audit bill, the Chairman said he bad had some experience both as a government officer and as a railway director; end his experience. led him to the conclusion that, h.d railways hum under government control, they would at this day be crawling along at a maximum speed of 20 miles an hour, and at a minimum price of 24. per mile. (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) At the same time, with regard to the audit question, he drew a broad line of distinction between security fry the publishing of proper ethanol& and govern ment interference with the management. The former object it was desirable for the interest of railway shareholders, if possible, to attain-(hear, hear)-and had the bill been confind to the nomination of a public accountant, to act in connexion with the auditors of the dif ferent companies, he, although on public hrounds he was not quite sure that the principle of government interference even to that extent was correct, yet, being satisfied that such an enactment would have been beneficial to their pro perty, he for one would have been pled to see such a bill pass. (Hear, hear.) Other gentlemen, however, differed from him on that point, and therefore he declined to act upon the committee. Some such alteration as be had men tioned would have the effect of restoring confidence and obviating the necessity for more direct government inter ference. He would move, " That the report now read be received awl adopted, and entered on the minutes." (Cheers.) This motion led to a lengthened discussion upon the pro posed expenditure of 30,0001. for the erection of cottages for the workmen in the company's employment at Brighton, and upon tit- recommended arrangement for working, at a rental of 3 0001. a year, about four milesof the Direct Ports mouth Railway, vie., frem Epsom to Leatherhead. An amendment for the adoption of the report, with the exeeption of the part referring to the erection of cottages for the workmen at Brighton, was put and carried by a con siderable majority. Anothei amendment for the rejection of the portion hav ing reference to the arrangement for working at a rental the line between Epsom and Leatherhead, was lost by a small ens The report was then carried unanimously. The " supplemental report," the object of which was to increase the salary of the chairman 1,5001. a year, was next submitted and adopted. A motion was made " that the company do forego the repayment of the money advanced towards the purchase of the steam - boats ." This led to a debate, in which all the argentine that have been used pro. and eon. some half-dozen times were reiterated. The motion was lost by a large reenrity. So to fermi resolutions for converting certain shares into stock were pseud, and a dividend of 14e. 6d. per share having been declared, a vote of thanks was given to the chairman, and the meeting broke up. NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE. It appears fnaea7l;ereix;r7;iti7rii;eelon3; be presented , to the proprietors at the half.yearly meeting to be held on ' Monday next, that 614 mike of the railway were opened in 1843, 11 miles from Stone to Colwieh in May last, 8 miles from Coegleton to Macclesfield on the 18th of June, and 271 miles from North Rode to Uttoxeter, on the 13th in- , stant, and on the same day the Wellington branch, 44 miles; total length now open for knells, 1124 miles. The original estimates have not been exceeded. So far from the competition of the railway having interbred with the re ceipts of' the canal, the tonnages have been funned. while the working expenses have been diminished. The re sult is, that the receipts being equal to the present charts of 781001., and that the future charge being 58,5001., there will remain a surplus equal to the in terest upon the debenture debt of the company, leaving the whole net earnings of the railway available for dividend. The profits will admit of a dividend of 3s. per share. The direetare have entered into a antnet for work ?!raffle ; the expenses iacluded are the working, re and, replacement of the engines and carriages of every 'ption, wages, stores, nasintenauce, and repair of work. shops and of the necessary buildings and ma chi nery. The directors have calculated that it will be advisable to lay aside annually a ma of 7,0001.. to meet the depreciation of way. They propose to furnish the shareholders with a monthly return of the traffic on the railway and canal. The apical account to the 30th of Jane shows that 3,132,1791. ' has been received, and 2,936,9001. expended, leaving a balance of 19.5,2791. The railway revenue account shows that 32,1881. had been feeeived, and 19,8431, ex p en d e d, leaving a balance of 12,3451. canal revenue account states that 86,6971. had been received, and 45,2051 expended, leaving a balance of 41,4921. After paying the interest on bonds and dividend on the canal share, there remains a balance of net profits azioastisg to 25,1131.

The business is much lighter than usual, there being only 69 prisoners for trial, for ctfences of the ordinary descriptics ; and on the de d side only 26 causes are entered, the greater portion of which are common jury cases, and a great many of them are undefended.

Ma. BARON ALDERSON ON THE GRAND JURY SYSTEM.— The learned Judge, after expressing his sati , faction at seeing so many gentlemen in attendance to perform the duty of grand jurors, said that he hoped the day was far distant whrn such a spectacle would cease to be witnessed, and when criminal matters of imporance would be diapoeed of without the intervention of a grand jury. Ile hoped they should never see the day when the system provided far the administra'ion of justice in this kingdom, that of the Queen's representatives visiting d.fferent parts of the country from time to time, and atten ied by the g. ntry of the countr), should he abolished, es he believed .bat such a course would be likely to be injurious, not only to the people, but to the government. He believed that it wu of the greatest importance in the administration of justice, that the different classes of society should not I e separated from each other. The learned Judge then retired to the Nisi Pries Court, and Mr. Justice- Gaz dee dieoosed of several eases of Cluny, but nothing occurred in either c dert which presented any features of public interest. MIDLAND CIRCUIT. LFCE4TER, JUT 24. This day the commission was opened by Bare Parke. His lordship congratulated the grand jury on the lightness of the borouen ealendav, which contained but five cases, and those of a trivial character. The COUIIIIIII4EPII promise to be of a mere exciting cha racter. The calendar is said to contain three or four stab bing cases and a brutal assault upon a female. On the nisi prin.' side will be heard the will case of " Wiggins v. Marlow," in which Messrs. WLitehurst, Humfrey, and Mayes have been retained for the phintiff; while it is un derstood that Sir F. Th-siger has been specially retained for the defendant. It is expected to come on to-morrow. There will also be an important horsestealing case. Dniinv, JULY 24. atom, Contr.—Boots Ma..lvimes Cot-Lemur. Tun OLOWSOP Mvituen Thomas Dam. aged 2.5, was indicted for having mur dered, at Oloa-op, on the 30th December last, Job Duey, his father. Mr. Wilmore and Mr. Denison for the prosecu tion ; Mr. W. H Adams defended the prisoner. Mr. Wilmore opened the cue at some length, and called the following wi eaters John l3rllge, a waiter at Bottom's public-house, proved that the night before the murder the deceased and his son wire drinking at that house. John Clough, a shoemaker, residing at Glossop, said thati on the 30th December he was near the Victoria bridge ,• he had been at a beer-house kept by a man named Band, end his wife fetched him away. On coming from the beer-house he went through the market-place, and over the weighing. machine, along the road. They proposed to go to James Hollingsworth's ' and to have a plies of beer. This is over the bridge. When they got near to Ward's watch-house they saw the deceased before them. He had seen him before, the same set ning, at Bud's. He saw him met by Thomas Duey and another man. He bad known prisoner for three years. When he saw them meet he was about twenty yards from the bridge on the Glossop side. It was rather a frosty night, and there were lights about from the different shop.. Saw Thom., Doxey lay hold of his father, and heard him call him "an old rogue," and say "he would Ulrike him." He stru k him and knocked him down, an d the other man kicked him on the head. Witness asked what they were going to do with the old man, but his wife would not let him interfere or go up to them, and he turned back. He turned round very sh►rp to look at them, and saw that they had got him on the tip of the battlement of the bridge. He turned round again and went on with his wife. He heard his body fall, but saw nor heard no more of them that night. The prisoner and the other man went towards WhitwilL Saw pfisonir three weeks or a month after, and said to him "Ah, , Tom," and he replied, "if you mention what happened on the bridee your life is in danger," and he (witness) then said he had not mentioned it to any person. He came into Band's after wards and had a jug of ale, hut witness did not speak to him. I never mentioned it until Good Friday, when I related the circumstance to James Hibbert, a weaver, at Mr. Wood's. I cannot swear to Dawson being the other man, but I believe he was. —.se-examined—l was not drunk but fresh, and knew Clayton the constable, and told him to take prisoner into custody. Never saw prisoner in our house that day. He was not taken into custody or Friday but on the Sunday fol lowing. I will not swear that I did not go out of the way of the examination. The second man wioh the priconer on the bridge was about five feet nine in height. Don't know which it was, but one of them said they would serve him the same if be did not turn back. Esther Clough, wife of the last witness, gave similar evi dence. George Cook said—That en 30th be went to Whitfield and returned about half-peat 10. As he came out of a neighbour's house he met the prisoner just comieg off the battlements of the Victoria-bridge. Another man was with him, whom he thoueht was William Tice. He is confident Themes Holey is the mea he sow. When he went next morning to the bridge he looked down into the water and saw the body of Doxey dead ; while there be heard Thomas Doxey say, " Now, you old —, I know where you are now." The pri soner was about six yards behind me, and some one asked U prisoner was the son of old Doxey. People seemed quite shocked at him. The body was taken away. I saw old Doxey's body and likewise his skull. His left eye was black, and there seemed to be some blood on it. Edward William Thompson, clerk to the magistrates, said prisoner made a statement before the magistrates, it was to the effect that his father left home in the evening early, and that he knew nothing about the murder. Mr. Adams addressed the jury for the prisoner, and called witnesses to peeve an alibi. These witnesses swore that the prisoner was at home et 9 o'clock on the evening of the al leged murder, and that he went to bed, and did not leave the house the whole of the night. His lordship, in summing up, observed that the practical question was whether they believed in the honesty of the two Clough'. There were three questions for them to de cide—first, whether the deceased had come to his end by violence; secondly, whether the character of it was clothed in such circumstances as to constitute it murder or man slaughter ; and, thirdly, whether it was clearly made out that the prisoner wee the man that committed the deed. At seven o'clock the jury retired to consider their verdict. They returned in about half an hour, and delivered a verdict of Not Guilty. WESTERN CIRCUIT. EXETER, JULY 24. Caown Corm—Harms Ma. ]Cerra WILLIAM. MAMILAT:OHTI6 AT SM. Yesterday, Wes. Ford (on Lail) was indicted for the man slaughter ot Andrew Morrison, on the High Seas, on the 19th June last. Mr. Rowe appeared for the prosecution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Cos. John Gillhani, a seaman, said he recently belonged to a brig called the Men!, of which the prisoner was captain. He entered at Quebec, and the first pert they made in Eng land wee Salcombe, in Devonshire. They mired there about the 29th of June. Witness was an able seaman. De ceased was as ordinary seaman, and entered the ship with him, being in good health at the time, and about 22 or 23 years of age. They had been 16 or 17 days at sera when he died. No one attended him but witness, sal after his death he sewed him up and threw him overboard. The first night they were at sea, the captain struck him (the deceased) with his fist and kicked him. Two or three days after Mor rison cemplained of being ill, having been kept in the rig- ging and at the pumps fora long time. It was blowing then a good top gallant breeze. Re had seen the derreast det the pumps fur four hours at a time. The man was very ill, the captain hying given him some castor oil. Re wog dragged on board, when be was usable to work, and ought t 3 have been below. About a week bef.re his death the cook was ordered to feed him en bread and water; he died on a log of timber, below deck. Whitt se was at the helm when the man died ; nobody wag near him. The last time he saw him alive was at tea o'clock the same eteriog ; at twelve o'elotlt he wee dead. Witatts was obliged to rut off his stockinet, his feet were so swollen. After landing at Selombe witness went to PI) mouth to lay the information, but was sent back to Kingsbridge, and there I id the information before Mr. Peeve. Re examined—Morriton never attempted to strike the captain; he was sent into the rigging and at the pumps fur eight b ony= ; that was the time for two watches. It was he vy weather—always is on the hanks of Newfoundland. I When he was takirg medicine be was kept in the rigging and at the rumps. About three d ye before his death he I was dragged on dads with a running b3wling knot, made I fast under his arms . The captain wa standing aft at the time. Several other witnesses were called to prove the captain's ill-usage of the deceased. Mr. Cox ad.lresud the jury for the defence. Me mated the necessity that existed for the obedience of orders on board merchant ships, and that the deceased bad imp seri upon the captain by entering himself as an ordinary sea mier, which in tact he was not. The learned Judge, in summing up, aid,—By law a meoter had a right to order a man reasonably to exert blown in the duties of the ship, and to enforce that order; but be had no right to require an unreasonable amount t labour, and if correction upon that caused Mani, and death ensued, he was guilty of manslaughter. The question of the reasonability of such an order depended upon the state of the weather and upon the he►lth of the pels2u to whom the ord. r was given. Two questions, therefore, arose whether the prisoner had been guilty of employing corporal violence on deceased, cr been guilty of ill usage, by enforcing orders which were unreasonable and improper. The jury in a short time retuned a verdict of Guilty. To-day the prisoner was sentenced to two years' impiiioa ment with hard labour. ______.____ JULY 25. BRYORR Ma.

Mr. Collier and Mr. Itaiiiake wire counsel for the pious tiff, and Mr. Greenwood, Q.C., for the defendant. tar. Collier stated the c.se. The plaintiff was a poor woman who had been a monthly nurse, and she bad three daughters. She brought this action for the seduction of her second daughter. The defendant was a clergyman, residing in Exeter. a married man, although separated from his wife. Maria Brooks was in his service, as she stated, in 1842. In the month of November in that year she quitted his service to attend her mother, who was ill. The reverend defendant was a constant visitor at her house under the pretf nee of bringing such articles as a sick person might uquire, and of administering religious consolation to the mother. He also brought religious books to prepare her for the adminis tration of the sacrament. He employe? the girl in making shirts and other articles, and required her to bring them to him singly as they were finished. On one of those occasions he efiected his purpose. Her seduction accomplished, she returned to his service and found herself with child. Drugs were administered by defendant and miscarriage followed She again became pregame, and was delivered of a child in the defendant's house. The defendant nutted the child : it, however, died, and he paid the expenses of burial. Some time after he performed the rifles of churching this woman in hi% own parlour. After the birth of the chili a series of miseaniages occurred, each following the administration of drugs by the deff ndant until 1848.

These facts were fully borne out in evidence' Mr. Greenwood, for the defence, relied on the statute of limit lions barring the action ; and to prove that the girl was in Mr. Rook's service btf re 1842 . Mary Banger stated that she lived with Mr. Rooks in 1840. I had the small-pox in August, 1841. Mrs. Brooks attended me as nurse. I remained at Mr. Rooks's until I was partially recovered, when I left. That was the latter end of September, 1841. When 1 had entirely reco vered I went to Mr. Rooks' to Aix my services again, and found Maria Breoks there. That was in October, 1841. Mr. Collier replied, imputing that the entries in the pocket-books were recently manufaeured, and that the wit nerses in point of time were mist ken. The learned judge summed up and said that, on the ques tion of damages, the jury must take into consideration that the plaintiff was content to allow her daughter to live on in opulence as the mkress of the defendant, and to send a younger sister as a s. want in the same house; and it was not until she was supplanted by another mistress that any action was thought of. The jury retired, and after an absence of about a quarter of an hour, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages 1001. THE POLICE COURTS. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. VIOLENT ASSAULTS.—Thomas Ryan, J'atrick Jordan, Juhn Burke, William Crimmen, Edward Breen, Phillip Burke, and David Smart, were charm d with having created a disturbance at the Albion public. house, Duke street, Grosvenor square. They were also charged with violently assaulting several police-constables. John Roberts, landlord of the Albion public.house, Duke street, Giosvenor-aquae, stated that about 7 o'clock last night the prisoners Ryan, Crimmen, and Jordan came into his house, and went into the tap room, where they had something to eat. In ab ,ut half an hour they left the house, and on his wife going into the taproom she missed a knife and fork which she had lent to the prison is. The pri soner Ryan subsequently returned, and pulled the knife and fork from his pocket, awl laid it on the bar. Wit ness told him that he thought he should be justified in giving him in charge for taking the knife and fork. The other prisoners then came in and began creating a crest dis turhance, and striking several of the customers who were standing at the bar. The prisoners then ran out of the house, and witness followed them into Oxford street, when, on m-eting with two constable - , he gave Sum in charge. The prisoners were very violent, and the constables were roughly treated. Several constables, who were more or less injured by the prisoners' violence, were examined; and the prisoners, on being called upon to answer the charge, denied ill-treating any of the constables, who, they alleged, had exceeded their duty in interfering with them. Mr. Hardwick said he thought the charge sufficiently proved, and committed the prisoners R.an, Jordan, end Burke to the House of Correction for six weeks, and the other primmer' for twenty-one days. ACCIDENT TO THE PRINCESS BAORATION.—W. Smart, an om, i'ms driver, appeared to answer a summons for having damaged the carriage of the Princess Serration. The case stood over for further evidence, as it was alleged by the driver that the collision , which broke the back pannel of the carriage and endangere!f the lives of the Princess Herndon and Lord Howden, who were inside, was the result of accident. The defendant called Mr. Haehell, oilman, Somers town, who said the wood pavement in Regent-street was very slip pery in consequence of having been recently watered. The princess's carnage was checked in consequence of one of the horses slipping. The omnibus was eight or nine yards be hind, and the driver did all he could to pull up, but the hones having no foothold of the pavement, he was unable to accomplish has object in time. Mr. Daniels, merchant, of Threadneedle-street, said the omnibus was al yards distant from the carriage when the horse in the carriage slipped. It was impossible to pull up in time owing to the state of the wood pavement. Mr. Hardwick decided that this evidence proved the da mage to have occurred through accident, and dismissed the THAMES. WHOLTRALE SYCOOLINO.—CopIain Bearer, muter of the Indianian, West, 420 tons, was charged with carrying and conveying 159 boxes of cheroots, containing 6971 b. of foreign manufactured tobacco not having paid the duty, nor being in packages of 3001 b. as prescribed by law, whereby he had subjected himself to a penalty of 1001. The value of the tobacco smuggled was 2091. 2a., and the duty would amount to 3291. Os. 7d., being altogether 5381. Ss. 7d. Mr. Pelham, for the defence, produced several papers to • show that the tobacco was entered in the manifest, and all r would have been regularly accounted fir had not the officer * visited the ship before a report could be made. As the d tobacco was not in the packages required by law his client a. mast submit to the penalty, but he (Mr. Pelham) hoped he sheu!d be able to lay such a case before the commissioners as la would induce them to reduce, if not to remit, the penalty. to METEOROLOGICAL RETURNS, THURSDAY, JOLT 26, 1649.
