The ) Dermirary colt's dec line may be simply on account of his having failed an yet to show the improvement he promised last matures, added to the satisfactory progress his lady companion is making ; but the " touts" speak most dispgragiugly of Beadsman's son, who has been dodging about for the last few weeks almost like another Plaudit, and appears to have prema turely come out of doors after his alight cold, as he was quickly in again. What his ailment may be this time is a secret, though the "hedging money" in the market betrays that it must be serious, and Sir Joseph may yet have to fallback oa Green Sleeve or Blue Gown for the Two Thousand. Should none of the three be cherry ripe on the eventful day, the race will assume a most open complexion, and dealers in Formosa, Noe, Typhoeus, Bataan, St. Ronan. Seesaw, the Sunflower colt, and Vale Loyal, will have none the worst of their bargains. In the of such a calamity the Dawson' would be dangerous as ever, one of them (John) being well worth following under any circumstances, as everything (including that important part of the question ." the money ") is right concerning Typhoeus, who was t ried well enough once to win both the Two Thousand and Derby. Should Cheltenham win the City and Suburban, he will become a rattling favourite, and the latter is doing well enough to be backed for the first great race at Rymer, in which, however, Blinkhoolie has only 81b more weight, and if be is the superior to Knight of the Garter, one might infer, from his being kept away from Liverpool, he will hold all such horses safe. The Knight has a .511) penalty through his Cup win on Thursday, so that his impost is raised to 9st llb ; and with 9st 51b in the Chester Cup he may not be " asked" for either event, trial stakes being more in his line. Beyond Blinkheolis and Cheltenham, only Franchise, Abergeldie, Nenalm, and the Breach (whole coming to Danbury is talked about), have reached short prices for the " City,. no good business having yet been done concerning Mr. Dawson's team, the best of which will be formidable indeed—as Lady }Machin, Hettleholder, Mayflower, Honestigh, and Heathy, must likewise prove, if they are ever backed in earnest. The Northamptonshire is coming into notice, and already Lord Hastings looks like seeing • short price. His performances do not say much for him ; nevertheless, he evidently wanted time hurt season to come to his proper form, Leap Year being another of the same sort ; and there is nothing I prefer to this pair at present, except Roquefort, who appears cut out for the severe two miles. Money e nough may not be got on Beeswing, and she is just as well in" for the Chester Cup, a race the three year-olds should take • more prominent part in than usual, after the open winter, although there are not many to attract one's fancy, Viscount, Landscape, and Contempt comprising all that appear dangerous. The running at Liverpool has disposed of a few more spring handicap can didates, badly as the fiat rams were supported, and in despite of there being only one long race in the programme. This was the Cup, wherein Knight of the Garter justified the confidence I reposed in him by winning very easily, my other " selections, " with one or two excep tions, doing the like, the it of them, Master Willie for the Money Cup, being actually indulged with a walk over. Hilda for the Tyro, Dawdle for the Flying, Pearl Diver fcr the principal Hurdle Race, and Chivalry for the Welter, were alai among my triumphs ; and there are plenty of excuses, were they needed, far my not " spot ting" the actual winner of the Grand National. This was one of tho most disastrous chases ever chronicled, for not content with numbering Clansman, Dispatch, Tusculanum, Shskspeare, Port Royal, Tennyson, the Doctor, Bensset, Hornet, Lawrence, and others that had been favourites with the public or the talent, among the illustrious dead, the fates ruled that the larger moiety of the twenty-one runners should meet with accidents in thence. The favou rite was actually the first to come to grief, poor Chimney having slipped his near forefoot into a gutter and thereby broken his leg before reaching the first obstacle. This reached, Fan took it into her head to refuse, and after playing the same game with the third leap, she was brought back home—a fitting sequel to the mysterious market open lions she had been the heroine of. The wonder is how she remained • favourite after the declaration to win witheny outside fancy, Helen, who justi fi ed the advice to "plunge on the latter at long shots, as • fine commercial speculation," by coming from 50 to 1 to 10 to 1 before the tag fell. She was runnieg well at the time she fell lame, a misfortune that must have been very mortif ying to Mr. Goodman, who—Waddington not being well enough to ride—undertook the mount on his release from Tuscola.- num. The latter quietly kept good thing was found to be dead amiss on the morning of the race, and why his seratchitag came so like • thunderclap on the public was because his owner did not try to " save " • ghil lies of the money he bad backed him for. Of the other heavily backed candidates disposed of by the chapter of accidents, Thalassius was perhaps the meet un fortunate, as he might not have fallen bad his school master, F. Leto° (leo much shaken by his accident on the first day when iidine the brute Archimedes) been in the saddle, and lie was going well when he came to grief like the Nun. The race martin at • cracking pace, a tremendous tail soon presenting itself ; and all in the field met with serious hindrances except the lamb, Pearl Diver, Alci biade Captain Creagan., Daisy, Huntsman's Daughter, Baskle, Astrolabe, Hall Court, and the Plover. The actual contest, in fact, rested between the first four from begin ning to end, it being remarkable that the quartet were first over the sensation water jump in front of the stand, all of a heap, whilst the winner led over the first jump, and Captain Crashes over Beecher's Brook. Had not the latter refused the last hurdle but one, be would certainly have ob tainedthe coveted " place" he had been backed for, and per f ormancewas a great one takes as a whole, the wonder being that he got so near as he did after making the running almost throughout. Of course the winner's party win tremendous stakes, and the Ring should certainly receive a vote of thanks from government for the good they have done to Irehind since the racing season com menced, the money won by l'addy through Lord Lurgan's dog, Master ll'Grath, and the Dublin vet's gallant grey —sod let us hope he will keep it, or make &greater Breath into the Lank of England over the City and Suburban— being worth counting. The victory is more welcome to the public than that of Pearl Diver would have been, for they followed the first " commission" and backed Moose, whose owner insisted he was by far the better horse of the two, but made just as great a mistake as be did with Douro and Ihaddeigh last Metropolitan, though it would not have been such a dear one had the Diver absolutely landed. Looking at the result, the winner's friends were also a long way out of their reckoning, as it is impossible to believe the Lamb was f.iirly tried a 141 b. better hone than &Da nt over three mike, unless we ate to suppose this is his favourite distance as well as the latter's. But the many ploughed fields they went over at Aintree, and the fearful pace, would alter any private trial, and it is enough for those who have so cleverly "worked" the Lamb that he won, Than is a great quantity of steeplechasing to oome off during the current week, half out of the half-dosen pro grammes before me being solely made up of cross-country coatesta, of which there are three to take place at Shrews bury on Tuesday sad Wednesday, in addition to a eouple of hurdle races. One, the Severn Bank Plate, is over two mile* and • quarter only, • distance that must serve Comberton, woos. stable is considerably helped by Captain Creestree, he. However, it is not worth while trying to " select" from sixty or seventy horses, very few of which will start, and it is sufficient to do duty in the principal Chase, wherein Pearl Diver or Moose is to be greatly feared by the Limb, Huntsman's Daughter standing • fair chance too. Moose is also in the first Hardie Race, but with every thing to fear from Thalsesies or Brick. The handicaps on the flat are awkward matters to deal with, the most tempt. ing things in some of them having engagements at Chelms ford on the came days. But for this, I should plump for Pyrrhic' in the Shropshire Cup, some half-dozen comprising all that can oppose him, and he should dispose of every if able to beat Lord Wilton's representative —pro bably Conundrum. The minor handicaps must be passed over, ma only when the different " lots" are sorted, and the " pots" are on, can they be in • condition to provoke speculation, and Electricity is hardly smart enough to plump for in the Middleton Plate. At Chelmsford there is a Two Year-Old-Plate on Tues day, wherein another second-rater, the Cicada colt, is the best performer, so that one of the derides may win. The °Ulmer Handicap is not so difficult to handle, business having only to be meant with Artesian or Cavalier, for few others to have the ghost of • chance, and even Pyrrhic might succumb did his owner prefer this to the Shropshire Oup. Canthleen reads the most troublesome opponent to Mr. Pryor, who has Novice nicely in the Stand Plate, Miss Frances, I fancy, can make • greater certainty of the Fairlands than her engagements at Shrewsbury, but this will depend as mash on the first day's results, as the other events in Wednesday's bill of fare.--I am, ke. idl=oll. ETRE STEEPLECHASES.—EATUaDAY. The attendance to-day was not near so large se that of Friday, nor was the weather as favourable to the sport, as there were several heavy showers of rain during the afternoon. The " going" was very heavy, and showed the necessity of having the ground thoroughly drained, which will be done before the nex t mee ting. The "port was, however, slain of a fair c h arac t er , consider ing the limited entries. Ice the opening event Dun staffnage, a novice to steeplechasing, defeated a warm favourite in Queen Mob, and lowered the colours of Mr. Ellison's new , Bandoline. The Suburban Plate was won sadly by Goraehawk, who seems, at Length, to letarood to fowm, as he completely " spread-eagled" the field is ltimately winning easily by a couple of lengths. For the at Handicap Steeplechase, Beverley, a geld ing 23yean o age, was opposed by Sir Stephen and Lei cester, but neither of them had a chance with the veteran, who won by 130 yards. Ltotard fol! , ,wcd up his victory of the previous clay, and won tl,a Soiling Steeple• chase, defeating Bandeline—wee already bad a nee in her—and Strike, the last of the Touchstones left on the turf. Astonishment landed a good ateks for the Epsomite' kiln Local Hunters' :makes. The trainer of Lady Berths, bowfin , objected to the winner and the seoond for having geese on the wrong side of a flag. The rider of Scarborough, the second, admitted the error, but Ticket, wbo rode Lady Bertha, stated that he did not me the winner go wrong. The stewards consequently overruled the objection, which they considered frivolous, and Gamed the " an " posted is ths hands of tam clerk of the Decree to be feefMtad to the Bootblack Benevolent Fund.

The near approach of the great spring hen= beginning to manifest itself in the augmented at at the dubs,dind the increased mount of vitality infused into specs anon Three important events are now before the public, the City and Suburban, the Northamptonshire, and the Chester Cup, and until the whole of these are dr tided the interest attaching to them individually and col lectively will be sustained with unflagging spirit. To begin with the first named—Tbe City and Suburban hes already found swarm favourite in Blinlchoolie, about whom trday 100 to 8 was accepted wherever it could be obtained, and in the end 10 to 1 was the longest price offered, but the desire to get on this horse was so great that at any. thing over the odds mentioned be would doubtless have been supported to win large sums. Nemea, the repro. sentative of the French stable, was in fair revert, 1,000 to 60 being accepted twice, and 100 to 6 several times. Neither The Breach nor Abergeldie were in demand, 100 to 6 and 20 to 1 going begging about each respectively. After 20 fifties had bees accepted about Knight of the Garter, he receded to 40 to 1, no takers. Some good burin'se was transacted in favour of Cheltenham down to 20 to 1, and be presented a very healthy appearance. Franchise also found friends at 20 to 1, while among the outriders Mayflower and The Corporal were not wanting supporters. For the North. amptonabire, Lord Hastings still headed the poll at 100 to 7, and there say no particular feature, save the backing of Beeswing at 10 to I with s start, For the Chester . Viridis looked like cowing again, as 20 to 1 was accepted in three or four quarters pretty freely. For this event Beeswing was also backed at 10 to 1 with a start, but speculation generally on the race was tame. For the Two Thousand, llosierucian again reoeded, 5 to 1 being lakl and offered. Pane was a good deal sought after, and wherever 6to 1 could be obtained it was snapped up, the current offers not exceeding 5 to 1. About Formosa 700 to 100 was taken three times, and following upon this, layers were backward in offering a price, but 7's would have been taken to any amount of money. Green Sleeve and Blue Gown were both in request; the Ann Darned was backed at 9 to 1 outright, and at 5 to 1 with a start, while the latter found favour several timesat 100 to 7. Ty phoeus would have found supporter* at 10 to 1 but ' no more than 9to 1 was offered. Rabioan and Vale found supporters at 20 to 1 and 23 to 1 respeotively. 6 g the Derby Suffolk had an upward tendency, 100 to 6 being accepted in several quarter,; at the same price Blue Gown woe also in demand.

The following is a dopy of the consul's letter, addressed le his worship:—" Sir,—Mf attention has been called this morn ing to • placard posted In various parts of the town, sad purporting to represent his Majesty the Emperor Napoleon in oonnection with an entertainmeat which is to be gives shortly by a man known under the name of Howard Peals It is scarcely needful for me to remark how 'whamming, not to say scandalous, is the parading in the :midis) tho roughfares of Newpo r t of the pretended likesses of the 'overstep of a country which is on the meet friendly terms with England. I am therefore sponvineed that you will think it your duty (if it is in your pussy) to hays the said placards suppressed as soon as possible.—l have the honour to be, sir, your meet obe dient servant, le Consul de France, M. H. Boon- DILLON." The mayor promptly replied, assuring N. Boar- Mon that the posters in question were not intended to createany feeling of derespect towards his imparialmaster, and that they were " simply pictorial advertisements, to attract attention and lure persons to the entertainment, each as is often done at exhibitions ri waxworks and the like." Here the aorreepoodenoe ended, but the ohnsucloue hills were sabsequettly pasted over, and the committee of management of the hall where th e eateratinment wee to have been given, " viewing the set with badlgnatloa, end eensidering it an unwarrantable interferers* with the liberty of the subject," wrote to the ehainnen et the Watch Committee demanding explanations. The nation given was to the effect that the war, from the sesgeant of the pollee that the c ommittee management would have no objection to the 'porters beteg quietly put out of sight, had directed the bill stiskeeseto cover them over. Eventually the committee expressed themeelves satiated with the explanation offered, mod the subject was permitted to drop.

Collier, Q.C., Mr. 14;;Iciy Hill, Q.C., and Mr. Weigbtman for the plaintiff ; Dr. Spinks, Q.C., and Dr. Tristram for the defendant. The plaintiff propounded the last will of her husband, John Hall, late of Nottingham, farmer and land valuer, who died at the age of 116 en the 6th of April List, leaving an estate variously estimated at from 14,0001. to 20,0001. He bad executed three wills. By one dated in 1852 he had given everything to his wife ; but on the 14th of June, 1864, during her absence from home, he made another, by which be bequeathed to her his house and furniture, the whole of his property for her rd. and a power of appointment over two-sixths of it afterward s; the four remaining sixths he left to his brothers sad sisters or their families. On tho 21st of the foUowing month he executed another testamentary paper restoring the status quo ante, and probate of this was resisted by his brother 'William, on the simple plea that it had been obtained by the undue influence of the widow. On his behalf Mr. Devarill, the imitator's solicitor, de posed to having been sent for and directed to draw up the third instrumazit ; that Mrs. Hall appeared greatly dis turbed, and said to him, " that bleak-looking the( has been altering his will—be always was a thief, at least to me." Mr. Doreen' stated that be bad made the will as a matter of kindness, and to restore peeve between the parties, but that he doubted at the time whether it would stand, and cautioned MTS. Hall against parting with the I second, or the " just will" as be termed it. Mrs. Dove rill (his wife) stated that Mn. Hall had tome to her in great agitation and disorder—that she had taken her Into her room, soothed her, bathed her bead and brushed her hair. Afterwards Mr. Hall thanked Km Deverill for pacifying his wife, and told her that he had been obliged to alter his will, or his wife would have cut his throat or her own. The testator's farm bailiff deposed that when his master was talking about his property, he said to him jocosely. " I should like to be put into a corner of your will." The testator replied, "It would do you DO good. 1 made a will leaving my brother William and the reek of them something, but it displeased Mrs. Hall, and 1 had to alter it." The bailiff aid, " Then Mr. William will have nothing. lam very sorry for him." The tes tator said, " So am I," end burst ia'o tears. Mrs. Hall gave an entirely different version of the mat ter. She said that her hmiband bad told her of his sewed will, and taken her to Mr. Deverill's to hear it read. She mid that it was a just disposition of the property, and that she was perfectly satisfied with it. Afterwards be told her that ha had made the alteration bemuse he had heard that, if she survived, she intended to bequeath tho whole of the property to a distant cousin; but tbat, having seen this cousin, he was convinced that the story was false, and that be would reinstate matters upon their old footing. No expianatlen was, however, given of the circum stances deposed to by Mrs. Derma, wham evidence was not in any manner impeached. Under these circum stances The ju ry , without hesitation, found that there had been undue Buenos ; and The court, avowing its perfect contentment with the verdict, pronounced against the will, and condemned Hall in the costa. rIECCE OF WALES'S.

THE BISHOP OP LONDON ON ESTABLISHED CHURCHES. Yesterday afternoon the Bishop of London preached at the Chapel Royal, Whitehall, one of the Lenten sermons, which during his lordship's episcopate have become so famous. The bishop selected for his text the 24th chapter of the Book of Joshua, verses 14 and 15, " Choose you this day whom ye will serve. But as for sad my house, we will serve the Lord." He explained the nature of church and state as it existed in Jewish times, and spoke of other times when church authority was repudiated—when • declaration of religion, however tolerant, wail considered to be an interference with the rights of individual conscience, and argued that it was neesasary that there should be • national religion, as the foundation of national strength. In this country there wars doubtless a tolerant spirit, whether we owed it meet to Cromwell, to Locke, to William of Orange, or to the principles which flowed out of the reformation. Because they had suffered from evils in the past it would certainly not be urged that they were bound to abandon corporate religion altogether. The complicated questions connected with this union of church and state were not to be discussed In a single sermon; but he held that such a onion might be sustained in a large and comprehensive spirit without sacrificing one jot or tittleof Christ's trah,or abandoning one of the smallest rights of Christian cilium.. A notion seemed to have got abroad that nation' progress would on some day or other put an sod to the profession of a national religion. If this ware so, he must remark that the progress must be in the wrong direction. It was no doubt greatly to be desired that a national religion should be sampled by a majority of the people ; but it could not be maintained that what was to be good for a nation wu to be determined by show of hands. When, therefore, the churchbad allied itself with dm state, for the good of the state, with the deliberate sanction of all that was best in the state, it was not right that its doctrines should be tested in • manner which would be repudiated by any other body. If, for example, there add be • community In which the majority of the people were rogues, that weld by no reason why an effective system of government should not be established, Or why an effective system of police should not be main tained Hs believed that all modern European expe rience taught that the maintenance of a national state religion was in no wise inimical to wise toleration or to the rights of individual conscience. On the whole a national established church was more likely to be tolerant than any independent body. The aura of Christ undertaking to aid the ruling powers of a great nation in guiding and tending the various ranks edits multitudinous people could not well lose the largeness of Christian principle in the narrow disputes which ounpied se much of the time of other Christian bodies. Then, again, there were many deals and difficulties which the state had to meet, and whisk the date could not effectually overcome without rolling to the aid of the church of Christ. For example, in all civilised countrias how large • por tion of modern legislation was concerned with the arraegement and distribution of charities, and the management of thewith education, with the prevention of crime and th e — reform of criminal.. How could all these matters be managed except on Christian principles, and how could Christian principles be applied unless the date allied Itself to Christ's church 1' Doubt less the date was benefited by an alliance with the church, and the aura would noteafier from the union. (Hearse, the time migh toornewhen the state repudiated gospel teach ing, and the church might stand apart, as it did in a heathen land ; but then were no such symptom* of apostasy in this pantry at moist, nor was it likely these would be while all the learning and thought of the country were at command, to adjust the difficulties of the church as they arose. The church of this country opened its doors to all ohms ed the community, and he trusted that no unwise exaltation of church authority on the one band, or any undue caving for liberty on the other, would tend to the destruction of thus pri vileg es which England now ethe njo bene yed. His lordship dismissed the oceieregatioa with dic SOHOLLUII/111 AT 11111 STATIONIBB' beROOL.— A movement is in progress smog the livery of the Stationers' Oompany for the establishment of some open scholarships in connexion with the Stationers' School.

COTTON GOODS.—MSNCIUnirEIt, MAItCH 7.—The market has undergone some fluctuation' in prices this week, which have done much to interrupt and prevent business. The great decline in prier last week continued up to Tuesday morning, when buyers showed but little drspeeition to accept offers from velars at about 14d. per lb. lower for yarns and cloths than they had been quoted st seven or sight days previously. On Tuesday afternoon, however, there was a sadden and quite unexpected change, and this reaction continued up to Thursday (remain. At iirst buyers who had been dallying with low offers from an impression that they could do better by waiting, were somewhat eager to renew negotiations, and some rather ex tensive purchases were made on Tuesday evening and in the early part of Wednesday ; but as prioes continued to advance till Dearly the highest point of the former move ment was &raised, burner fell of very considerably. From Thursday we have bad • very quiet and fanfare market. Buyers are unwilling to be dragged into • business speculative prices and the market Mora with little doing, but with price s per lb. higher than on Tuesday. WOOL AND WORSTED.—BitaDrOan, MARCH 7. The InU apparent last week has bees broken during the present. Several circumstances have tended to create • zieater confidence, and there has been rather more in quiry for wool. Wool sales in different parts of the mountry, the strength of the Liverpool cotton market, and more than all, the dearness which was felt at the Bristol wool market, have all tended to inspire • better feeling as to the future, and to give a marked degree of firmness to prices. Some particular sorts, such as long and tine wools of good colour, which are scarce, are quotably dearer. There is hardly • corresponding improvement in wonted yarns. The late advances in wool have - rendered it necessary on the put of spinners to seek an increase in prices, but, as the advance sought is not adequate to cover the increase in the price of wool, the poetics of the .pinner is decidedly worse than prier to the late advance. Vbe prices sought are not realised, end the offers made by mercruinta are so low that they cannot be accepted. l'be consequence is that business done is very restricted. If late rata could be accepted, considerable business might im done. Old stocks have been cleared and spinners are pretty generally employed, and therefore are very firm in their demands. There has been an improved tone in pieces aranufacturers generally decline the low offers of march: rats, and burner is consequently very limited in every department. There is more doing than of late in plain other sad fancy goods. WOOLLEN.—inane, MARCH 7.—There has been • moderate attendance of buyers at the cloth halls this morning, and although the transfer of goods has not been very extensive, • fair amount of business has been done for this advan ced period of the season. We have not to report any alteration in the demand, which consists prin opally M r tweeds in various shades and white diagonals. Phis latter make is at present claiming a fair share of attention, and may be said to take the second position in the market. Fancy unites coatings have not been in such large request, although a moderate busintes is still doing in them, and deliveries are yet made from the ersunfac tories. Plain cloths and hair-list her been slightly upon the increase, and in a few Instances some tolembly good paresis have changed hands. Prior remain without mash Alteration. HARDWARL—Blalunotuir, Ifsacu 7.—The trade of this town is improving, the manufacturers generally are better engaged, and the reports received front the factors' travellers are upon the whole more encouraging then they have been for some time put ; the country ahopkeepers, whose stocks are almost without exception low, evince more disposition to make them up, and although they are not buying largo quantities of goods the wades now in band on that ammo* are bettor than they bate been for several months.

This morning Mr. Serjoant Tow sat in a third court to assist in the trial of prisoners and with his amietanoe it is expected that the bininese will be concluded on Monday. Caows Comm —Meter* Mr. Baron Bnunwell.) Oliver Drage, Alfred Drage, and John Smith, shoe makers, and Joh* Palmer, a labourer, were charged with wounding Polies-Sergeant Berridge with intent to murder btm. Mr. Merewether appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Palmer defended the Prisoners. It sppeared from the evidenoe of tho prosecutor that on the night of the 7th October last he was passing by Aseart-wood, in the parish of Geddington, when he saw four men coming up a bridle road. Thinking one of them was the keeper be called to him by name, and was answered by one of the men. However, when they came up to him he found that he was mistaken. The prisoner Palmer was one of them, and he called out several nods, "Up Up." The prod onto, said, " Don't make any noise, I am not going to interfere with you," and walked on. When he had got a short distend be heard a stone fall near him, and he taw the prisoner Oliver Drage throw another at him, which struck him on the awls and knocked him down. When he got up the men were close to him. Palmer and Alfred Dregs seised him, and he managed to throw them into the ditch, but while ho was doing this Oliver Dregs struck him on the back of his head with a large stone which he held in his hand. Re was again knocked down ; some of the prisoners kicked himwhile on the ground, end he became in sensible. When became to himself the melt were still near him, end Oliver L=l snuck him three times with a hedge stake, and to the others, " Turn him round, and I'll put my stick In his mouth." The others actually did turn hie lead round, but they were luckily unsuoosse ful in their atimempte to put the stick into his month. The prisoners led two dogs with them, which they tried to " saton" preseenter, but they' were more helmet than their rester, and one refused to go near him, while the other hiked his ear. The prosecutor then because in sensible spin, and the prisoners left him. When the pri soners were eppreheaded they admitted that they were poaching on the night in question is Illawsley.wood, which was some little distance from where the affray took place. A sap was picked up near whore the prosecutor was as saulted, bat it was not proved that it belonged to the prisoners, and they were all seen at five o'clock on the seeedig after the assault with caps on. d witness was NOM en behalf of the pri soners, who mid that on the nes he in quells he and • man named Jolly were out with the prbrosen on a poach ing expedition in Hawley and Drawly woods, but that they never went DM Assad wood on that eight ; and other wilneeees wen celled, who proved that an that night the priateen went oat in, and returned from, directions eentrar7 to that where the assault took place. gin lordship, in summing up, add the foxy must du els great cant en in coming to a conclusion on the evi dence.
