FINE ARTS. NELSON COLUMN. Yesterday was the private view of Mr. Carew'. alto relieve of the " Death of Nelson." Few subjects bare been mere hackneyed or mid treated; and it is 'loci:ter that that which in narrative accelerates the tingling of the reader's pulse, should have called forth so much that is common-place in the artistic line, from the days of West downwards to our time. That the conventional costume of the period militated against its due performance) in paint ing is pearible, though Mr. Carew has adroitly parried this detect in the enbject by giving as much nudity as is allowable in the heat of combat. In so doing Mr. Carew has avoided both the tortuous ways of allegory and the insipid farms of the classic mania. The two favourite moments of compostrs are generally either that in which the hero is struck down on the quarter-deck, or when reclining in the cock-pit. In Mr. tamer's work Nelson is car ied off in the act ofissuing his last sea mandate ; the expression of with its resigned, though Mill in domitable energy, is title, and the attitude has conscious ease. Captain Hardy, speaking-trumpet in hand, is the next commanding tigure. Name's old grumblers aro modelled with great power of hand, particularly the one clearing the hatchway. The by play pantomime is not the least skilful part of the compueitioa, whether in the sorrow of the doctor, as he leans over the hero, or the sinewy tar who points out to a savage mulatto the marksman who has laid him low. If inclined to be hypercritical, we might object to the group on the extrewe right as having less action than the other figures, and by being em ployed in hauling ropes, somewhat weaken the in terest which should centre in the principal personage. But, on the whole, this large miss of bronze evinces considerable and matured power, as well in the ear nestness of its conception as in the style of handling. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL.

CNWITiII AND ROLYMRAD RAILWAY COMPANY, MRAD, LANCAIMINIL AND Cummins JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY, AND LONDON AND NORTH WISTIIIN RAILWAY ConiPanv.—Cnainfin STATION. The arguments upon this motion for an injunction, the material facts =to which were stated tin yesterday's &woes, were Mr. Rowell sad Ur. Willeoek, for the Chester and Holy head Railway Company, contended that the station com mittee had not exceeded, their powers as to the management of the station in preventing the plaintiffs from competing unfairly with their cowmen in the use of the station by esrrfis passengers at ruinously low fares to place! beyond this Mute of the Shrewsbury and Chester line, while at„ mem *se. as regarded that line, which alone the agree between the companies regarded as that of the plaintilk they distended as high or higher than the other companies Mr. J. Parker and Mr. Glasse, for the Chester Bir kenhead Junction Company, contended that the plaintiffs were duly represented at the meeting of the 13th of Novem ber, and were bound by the resolutions then passed. This plaintiffs' act did not enable them to carry puseegere from Chester to Birkenhead by °melbas from the station. Is the first instance, the plaintiffs had applied to the Birkenhead Company to coalesce with them and book passengers through to Wolverhampton, in opposition to the North Western Com pany, and to lower their tarts with that view. The Birken head Company refused to accede to ouch a course, and it was on that account that the omnibuses had been set up against them by the plaintiffs. The Birkenhead Company had con tributed • large sum of money to the building of the station, with seism of having the conveyance of passengers from Chester to Birkenhead, and yet the plaintiffs came here and asked that they might um the station to defeat this fair ob• Pet of the ;Birkenhead Company. The plaintiffs alleged that the Birkenhead Company would not carry the plaintiffs' purtuogen, except at times and at fares amounting to a prohibition from the use of the line. This allegation was wholly unfounded, inasmuch as there were ten trains a day, and the Birkenhead company had ofescat to ran two more, et such times as would suit the plebetiffit. And es to the farm demanded , by the Birkeakeed Company, they were actually at lower rate than Abase of the plaintiffs on their own line from Chester to Shrewsbury. There was therefore no pretence for saying that the interests of the plaintiffs re. quire 4 them to carry passengers by omnibus, in cppoahioa to their pennon in the station. The admission of omnibuses into stations was essentially the subject of management of the station, and must be left to the committee. It was by no means ea universal, or even a general custom, for omni buses to be admitted within stations. The motion must also fail, on the ground that it asked the court to interfere in the management of • partnership concern, without any case being made out of destruction or exclusion. Mr. Bacon and Mr. Follett, for the London and North Western Railway Company, contended that the agree ment, by the expression " complete station accommodation," only meant such accommodation as was required for the purposes of the plaintiffs' line from Chester to Shrews bury, and was not meant to extend to affording item the means of sonoying and prejudicing the other parties to the contract, by booking to places without those limits at tares which could yield no rem tion„ but must occasion positive lose. (The Vice-Chancellor—The case which the plaintiffs urge Is that, according to the resolutions of the committee, they must, if they want to book a passenger front Chester through Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton, take an other station for that purpose.) Their doing so was never contemplated by the agreement. That the accommoda tion afforded to them was to be limited to the purposes of the Chester and Shrewsbury line appears from the different proportions in which the companies con tribeted to the expense of the station. If the plaintiffs were to use it for every purpose, why were they to contribute less than the London and North Western Company t If it had been considered that the plaintiffs would have engaged in a ruinous opposition to the other parties to the agreement, the agreement would never have beets entered into. The fares charged by the plaintiffs showed that mere annoyance wee their object. On their own line, from Chester to Shrewsbury. 421 miles, the (arcs were Bs. and 7a. for the let and 2nd den respectively, while the fare whisk they demanded from passengers tor the whole distance from Liverpool to Birmingham (upwards of 100 miles) were 10e (or the Ist class, and 7s. 6d. for the 2nd, including the emelbus and the ferry, being charges of Is. in ear ilNle and dd. is the other, for the extra distance. Could wet a gesessilkis be considered one tho furtherance of whisk owe within the fair meaning of " complete stalks amensmodationi" or ought the committee, which re hired to emelisa it, be subjected to the injunction now ought ? Wde impose to the emaibuss, them was no evi dence to show that it was a nsinniary or usual portion of the ameommedatiam of a railway station to admit those convey sates within it, and experience whet proved the contrary labs the are. The question was not as to the public, which, boverver, esald not be ultimately benefited by such a course es that adapted by the plaintiffs. The only parties before the wart were the companies themselves, between whom and on whose interests alone the court ha d to decide. The Vim Chancellor—ln a case where two distinct mil lirem belonging to two distinct companies communicate with each other, fall into each other, continue each other, and the two companies are willing to agree to book pusengers re eiprocelly kr the whole journey upon reasonable and proper tents, ir the affairs of either company are regulated and con cluded in such a manner that that company has not the means, has not the power of giving effect to that operation by booking in the =anew that I have mentioned, I em of opinion that the affairs of such company are conducted in a n. tuner not only inconvenient to the public, not only preju dicial to the interests of the company, but contrary to what the evidence and the nature of the subject convince ate is the ordinary and proper course of arrangement of railway business. Viewing that matter, am I have said, in consider ing the resolutions of 1847 u thii case, lam of opinion that the resolutions of the station committee of November last, so fax as they prevent that from being done, are resolutions in emcees of their power, are wrongful resolutions, and ought, es to their effect, to be prohibited by injunction. As to that part of the case, the only question is uto the manner of wording the order. What I have said, however, has no rela tion to say point or question as to the admission of public esaveyances into the station, as to which, or any other part of the can e,'_ I am ready to hear the plaintiffs' counsel. Mr. Mlaa, in reply, contended that complete station ac eammedation would not be afforded by bringing passengers into the station, without affording them the means of pro ceeding thence with their luggage wherever they required to go. The Vies Chancellor—l am not satisfied that the hairiness of a railway company cannot well and reasonably be carried on without the admission of conveyances into the station. I am not satisfied that it is a rule or custom of these companies generally to admit conveyances of this description within the station. It appears to me that the whole matter of the ad mission of public conveyances is a matter of management, and that the committee have not in this respect exceeded their powers. The injunction must be confined to restraining the defendants from interfering with or disturb ing the plaintiffs' station accommodation at the joint station at Chester ; and from doing any act restricting the plaintiffs in the enjoyment of such complete station accommodation as is itecessery for their traffic, and from preventing or preclud ing the plaintiffs own servants and clerks, or the joint ler. vents and clerks of the defendants and p laintiffs, from brak ing at the joint station, and in the ordinary joint hooking office, which has hithert• been used, and in the ordinary or usual manner, either goods or passengers, beyond the limits of the plaintiffs' railway, whether to Wolverhampton use otherwise. This is kw the language of the notice of motion. Then commences what II propose to add, which is as follows, " provided that such hooking be for a journey or journeys by railway, and be by the joint servants or clerks, or by some clerk or servant, or clerks or Mesa% to be ap proved of by the plaintiffs end the general station eon mines." That will wipeout the istroduetien of any sudal dark or servant. What I mesa is, not to leave the p! tiff! an inNodted power of introducing a clerk. The station mew WON, ea the other hand, might appoint a verso, not • Joint clerk, end yet a person not acceptable to the plaintiffs. Mr. J. Parker asked for the 001411 of the Birkenhead Immense Company, bat The Vice-Chaneellee reserved them. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—YrmanAy. 1111117111.11 AT Nia Pam-8 mm Ma. Awn= WIGATYAT AND &sew.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—YasTERDAY. Sam Ma. SEIJWIT ADAMS, ANISSWer JUDOS. TRICXB OP DOG STILALZRD. H. Cole, a dog fancier, pleaded guilty to an indictment. in which he was cliarged, under the Gth section of the D 4 Stealing Act, with a misdemeanor, in having wilfully and corruptly taken three sovereigns from Lieut. Montague James White, upon pretence of restoring a very valuable bloodhound which had been stolen from him. Mr. Parry and Mr. Mellor appeared for the prosecution, and, addressing the court, Mr. Mellor (in the absenw of Mr. Parry) said that such a profecutien as this must be looked upon as one of some importance, as the circumstances under which the offence charged against the prisoner was com mitted would demonstrate. About the 10th of November, the deg in question, which was an exceedingly fine and valuable animal, was stolen from the residence of Colonel White, Lieut. White's father, in Gloucester-gardens, and on the 24th the prisoner went to Lieut. White's servant t and raid he knew where the dog was, and could re store it to the owner, but unless he were paid 31. to bring it back, it would be poisoned by himself and a person named Taylor, in whose custody be represented the dog then was. At an interview that subsequently took place between the prisoner and Lieut. White the man Taylor was introduced by the prisoner, but, although there was a police officer in attendants, unknown to the prisoner and his friend of coarse, they were not apprehended; and the prisoner having repeated the threat that unless money was given the dog would be pdsoned, Lieut. White, really fearing that the threat would be carried into effect, gave him three sovereigns, and that lame evening the dog was returned. The prisoner complained that he had nut rtceivtd sufficient recompense for the trouble he had had ; and Lieut. White told him that if he would cell on the following morning he would give him mere money. Accordingly on the ensuing day the prisoner called upon Lieut. White, who gave him two marked half-crowns ; and an officer having witnessed this transaction, the prisoner was taken into custody. The learned gentleman stated that the Dog Stealing Act bad had the effect of putting an end, in a very great measure, to a very extensive system of dog stealing that had prevailed; valuable and favourite deft were stolen, aid large sums of money demanded for their restoration, and the passing of the act making such pro , eedings punishable offences, was mainly attributable to the indefatigable exertions of Mr. Bishop, the gunsmith, of New Bond-street. Mr. Parry, who had entered the court, hoped the court would take seriously into consideration the diabolical threat of the prisoner, that unless the money were given the dog would be poisoned. The prisoner had nothing to ray for himself. The court sentenced him to tour months' imprisonment in the House of Correction, and to pay a fined le. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION ROUSE. INTENDED FULTDB - UPON FONEIGIN Burxii.—ln this ease the prosecution was, we understood, instituted by the Russian government. Said Lourie, Bernard Gordon. and Sodank Faderntan, who appeared to be German Jews, were brought before Alderman Gibbs, in the custody of John and Daniel For rester, under the following serious circumstances. Mr. ClerkUn, instructed by Mesas. Oliverson and Co., attended for the prosecution. John 11. Feger, of No. 7, Church-row, Aldgate, engraver and printer, said In the month a August la,t, at about 11 in the morning, Lourie and Gordon came to my house. Gordon asked me to meet them in the course of an hour at a tavern in the neighbourhood, when they would, they said, hate a great deal of work to give me to do. I accordingly met them at Somerset-street, at ahonse which is, I believe, called the Green Man. Lourie took this nota (a genuine ten rouble note), from his pocket, and handed it to Gordon, who gave it to me. He asked me to engrave a plate of this note, and to print him 60,000 copies. He said no matter about the price, I should be paid very liberally. I was to make my own charge for the plates and for the engraving, and they would pay me 501. per thousand. They then made an appointment at the same place on the following evening. I agreed to it. Both Gordon and Louris came, but tothing particular passed, with the exception that they begged might get on with the work as speedily u I could. In con sequence of my suspicion I consulted my solicitor, and in consequence of what I heard I came here on the 9th of August and made a communication to Mr. Alderman Gibbs Mansion-house. at the I proceeded, in consequence of what was mentioned to me upon that occasion, with the work in which the two men employed me. (A note and two engraved plates were here produced and handed to the witness.) Those plates are two or the plates which were engraved by me according to the order of the two prisoners who employed me. They frequently called upon me curing the progress of the work. About a month lifter the order was given. Gordon and Lourie came to me, and Gordon, in the presence of Lourie, told me that some gentlemen had come from abroad and asked me to make an appointment to accompany them to see them. I did so, and on or about the 21st September I went with Lourie and Gordon. I met them at the Thames Tunnel about half-past six in the evening, and accompanied them to a street at the back of Rotherhithe Church, where Louric went into a little chandler's shop, and opened a little street door which led to a staircase, up which we went to a first floor, and there I was introduced by Gordon and Lourio to the other prisoner, Federman, and another foreigner. I had with me specimens of the work done as far as had been executed and the plate. Laurie and Gordon bad from time to time before i went to the gentlemen seen the plates and the work as they progressed. Lourie and Gordon asked me to take the plates and show them to the gentlemen, which I did. Federman took up the plates and inspected them, and from the expression of his countenance he appeared much pleased, and offered to treat me to drink. Gordon acted as interpreter. Federman went to a cupboard, took a roll of cloth out, which contained foreign gold, seemingly about 5001., showed it to ' me, and laid it before me. He then spoke to Gordon, who, acting as interpreter, said I was to attend to no other work there was plenty of mono y for me, and I need not be afraid of not being well paid. An appointment was made for two or three nights forward, and I was to have gone with Lourie and Gordon, but they did not keep their appointment, se I went dote to the place where I first saw Federman, and t there I again raw him and another foreigner. I convened with him by signs. He first int mated that he wished me to have something to drink, making some tea and putting rum into it, but I declined. He then inquired by signs whether I had seen Laurie and Gordon. I understood from Fader man that I was to come the next day. I accordingly went with Lourie and Gordon the third time with the plates and notes. On the second occasion I took one of the watermark notes, and showed it to him. I subsequently received at various times from Faderman English money and foreign money to the amount of, perhaps, about 351. Gordon afterwards came and told me I had better let him have the foreign money to change to prevent suspicion. I did so, and he used to bring me beck 16s. for every half Imperial. I think I have re ceived from these parties between 351. and 401. altogether. The money I so received was solely for engraving the plates and printing the notes u I have described. Ibis went on from time to time until last evening. At last Laurie and Gordon made an appointment to come to my shop lest even , inn to fetch away the notes. lip to last evening I had printed and completed 1,200, and 300 more were being j printed and completed. Lourie and Gordon were to meet at my shop to receive the complete notes. Federman was to accompany them. About a week ago was the last time I saw ,Fadermm, who can speak a few words of imperfect English. He made me understand that he would come last night and pay me for the notes and take them away. Louie and Gordon came last night, but Paderman did not come. When they came in, they both said, " Well, have you got them realy ? " and seemed ex cited. I said, " Yes, there they are . " The plates and notes were In the front of me, on the counter. I said to them, "Is not that other gentleman coming ? " (I did not expect the fourth foreigner; I had net seen him for tome time.) Laurie replied, "He is not many doors off." I said, " Have you got my money ? " They both said I should not be many minutes without it, and they asked me to put on my coat and cravat, and to take my man with me to go to the gentleman, who was close handy. I went up etairst some string to put the notes up • when I came downstairs Laurie and Gordon were in the custody of Daniel and John Forrester, the offfoers. After Laurie and Gordon had been taken away, about half-past 12 the same night I went with John Forrester and another person to Thomas-street, Ken sington. I knocked at the door and asked for Mr. Lourie, not then knowing Mr. Federman's name. I received an answer from the landlord, and I waited in the neighbourhood until about two o'clock this morning, when I saw Federman coming towards the house. I then pointed him out to the officer who took him Into custody. The prisoners were remanded till Tuesday next. CLERKENWELL. 01011111:8 Ronnuty.—Jsslia Harrington and Mary Ann Baer, young women of shabby.gaiteel appearance, were charged with having stolen 2571. in Bank of England now, the property of a lady unknown. On Tuesday eveni t nngg last, about six o'clock, one of the Lelia:ton and Chelsea omdbaus drove up to the Angel Inn, Islington, when a man of re spectable appearance, in company of the prisoners and an ether woman, came up, when the man inquired what the fare would be to Oxford-street. The conductor replied 3d., on which the whole of the party got inside. On the arrival of the vehicle near the Caledonian-road, King'. cross, the man called to the conductor "to stop," which he did, sod the whole of them alighted, the man paying one shilling for the four, and they haetened off up the Pentonville-road. The sulnient almost after they had left, a gentleman, a passenger in the omnibus made an alarm that a lady had been robbed, and ordered it to be instantly stopped, and anapect ing the persona who had left, be demanded the assistant's of the conductor, when he, with the lady and gentleman (who was said to be her husband) proceeded in pursuit of the nub poled Mow, andoa their arrival In Liertiord-row, not far Name at Place.

Clear. was merely • civil ON there was no question of fraud. The ease au beard oa dm 14th of Jan., 1848, and did not take three minus* to adjudicate. Au order was made that the debt should be paid by instalments, one of which was to Ibe paid on the 14th of February. On 6th of March Pollett was taken into custody by two officers, and carried to Cold bath.fields prison and lodged there. The proceeding of the County Court wee somewhat extraordinary, as ne judgment summons had been issued as hy the 98th section of the County Court Act was required. The complaint made by the plaintiff against the defendant was that he had been treated as a person convicted of misdemeanor, bad had his hair cut dose, his whiskers shaved off, had been clothed is the convict dress, marked with a number, and been placed to hard labour by pickirg oakum. He had been associated with felons, fed on the wretched prison diet of gruel and bread, and, in short, had been treated like • convicted felon, for not paying a debt of 11. The defendant was the only person against whom an action could be brought to try • great consitutional question and the power of the County Court to commit in this manner. The Plaintiff had applied to the magistrates and to par lament, but could obtain no redress. The defendant hod been asked for a c vy of the warrant, and had refused, and pfaiotiff had also applied to the Home Secretary for • copy, but that gentleman had no control over it. It was a most extraordinary thing in the jurisdiction of the County Court, that a copy of the warrant was not to be obtained, which was not the cats in this or any other court. He was entitled to damage, for this injury. The following witnesses were called for the plaintiff. Thomas Ridington—l am a bootmaker residing in Fins bury-pavement. I have known plaintiff 14 years. I em ployed him to collect my debts for some years. I remember summoning the plaintiff to the County Crain for • debt of If. 193. I did nut charge him with fraud. He claimed to deduct a guinea. The order now shown to me was subse quently made that he should pay by 11. • month. Hewes very poor at that time. I applied for execution, when the instal ment was not paid. 1 got an execution for which I paid nine shillings. I never attended a judgment summons. I went about a fortnight afterwards with the officers. It may have been the 6th Marta. The two men took him into cus tody. I did not see when he went. He paid me the debt when he was dischar4ed from prison. Choss-examined—When I took out the execution I left tbe mod to do its duty. I paid the money for him to be Italia Into custody, and it was at my request he was taken. I divested the officers to take him into custody. The pay ments were to be made at tee office in 'Whiuchapel. Plaintiff had received money for me for six or seven years. I applied to Mr. Ballantine, the police magistrate, to know what I was to do, as he had defrauded me, and he told me to sue in the County Court. I never said he had not de frauded me. I told Mr. BaUantine the case. I did not charge him with defrauding me. I stated he had kept back money belonging to me. I went to know if I could get a warrant. Reexamined—Mr. Ballantise told me to go to the County Court. He claimed to deduct • guinea for • pa, went to a Mr. Watts, an attorney, which 1 did not understand. He tendered me the balance. I did not know to what prison he was going to be taken. William Bartholomew—l am a journeyman weaver in Spitalfi.lds. Oa 6th March I was a prisoner in Coldbath fields Prison, for an assault on a policeman, for which 1 was fined 50 shillings, or 14 days' imprisonment. Mr. Follett was there when I went. He was brought into the same room as I was. Mr. Chesterton was the governor. On the following m dming he was placed with me and a number of prisoners, ' when the governor was there. He asked us all what we were 1 , there for. He asked Pollett, who said, " For a debt." The governor said, " Yo governor sold, u're here for ntempt ourt." Follett aid, " No." The co " Silence ; f yo co uth(' here for correction, and correction you shall have." There was a boy there for • felony. lie was one of those in a raw when the questions were asked. We got our prison clothes. They were blue clothes. Pollett was in the same place with me. lie was numbered 41. We were searched I and Mr. PoUctt went to picking oakum. He was told to have his hair cut. He objected, and was told to be silent. His hair was cut and his whiskers shaved off. He was there Ave days. There were between 600 and 700 men and boys. lie was allowanced to pick oakum. On the Wednesday one of the prisoners said to one of the officers, " This man is going into • fit." I observed he was ill and lying on the form. He wished to see the doctor, and he was relieved from task-work. He is about 50 years old. I saw nothing of him after Friday. He had gruel the same as I had, and meat twice a week. He asked for water instead of gruel, and was answered " No, water is allowed only once • day." Cross-examined—l went in at two o'clock on Monday. I saw Pollett when I went in. 1 did not see him after Friday. I know it is the House of Correction fer Middlesex. I do not know if there are two classes of prisoner.. I don't know if Follett was kept with a felon. I did not see the boy who was in for felony after we were examined. I saw him shaved. He refused, as he said he did not want it. His whiskers were shaved off from under his chin. I was kept silent while I was there. ' Edward Clarke—l am son of the attorney to plaintiff. I have witnessed • written demand on Mr. Chesterton for a copy delis warrant and sow a signed copy of it delivered to him. He said he'd step in and speak to the magistrates. lie went in and returned, and refused it. 1 have never seen the warrant. . Cross-examined—l am clerk to my father. I am articled. I don't know where I first saw the plaintiff. It may have been soon after he came out of prison. It may have been • week, or a day or two afterwards. My lather's office is in Featherstont-buiklings, Holborn. He has been there Your years. Pollen lives in the Commercial-road. I have not seen him frequently since he came out of prison. When my father wanted to see him he wrote to him and then he came. I made the demand on Mr. Chesterton on the 31st of March. Ido not remember telling him the demand was made for the purpose of bringing an action. There have been two actions for Pollett—one arms out of a libel. My father practises in the County Court to a oonsiderable extent, and in the Whitechapel Court. Re.examined—The other action was for a libel by the clerk of the County Court. A letter from Mr. Chesterton, directing that process might Is sent to the solicitm to the county magistrates, was read. The demand for a copy of the warrant was also read. This was the case for the plaintiff. lie. W. H. Watson (with whom was Mr. l'ashley) ad. deemed the jury for the defence, and contended that there isonlii be no doubt that Coldbeth.fields Prison was the Route of Correction for Middlesex, and the term correction I showed that it was a prison where offenders were sent under the provisions of acts of parliament, and the plaintiff was committed to that prison by some authority, right or wrong, under an act of parliament. The whole question was whether, as the plaintiff was imprisoned by an express provision of • statute, and the defendant had reserved the warrant of the County Court, he could refuse to receive him. He had endeavoured to justify himself on this ground by his pleas, but the plaintiff demurred to those pleas, and so took out of the cousideration of the jury this point altogether, and then came and asked for damages. The witness Ridington was the proper person against wham the action should have been brought if the process of the County Court was wrong. All the governor of the House of Correction could do was to obey the order contained in the warrant, and keep the prisoner in safe custosy, and the per sons issuing the illegal warrant were alone liable. By the plaintiff's demurring to the defendant's pleas of justification he was precluded from producing ; the warrant in evi dence in mitigation of damages, which was all he ctuld ask, as • verdict must pass against him. The governor was bound by the rules of the prison, as laid down by the magistrates, and those he was onliied to enforce. There were only two classes of prisoners in the prison—misdemeanants and felons—and it was clearly proved that the plaintiff had not been placed among the felons. The learned counsel urged that very small damages would meet the j _notice of the case as against this defendant Mr. Justice Wightman, in summing up, told the jun that for the purpose of considering the question ell that keel been done must be taken as illegal, as there was on hems of justification. AU that the defendant could ask MIN that under the circumstances the damages should be mitigated, on the ground that the defendant had acted as a public facer in the discharge of his duty. The county court had power to commit to the Rouse of Correction under the statute, bat nothing was said about how the prisoners wen to be treated. There must be a verdict for the plaintiff, and the only question was as to the amount of damages.—The jury retired to consider their verdict. ghostly after, on a suggestion being made by the learned monasel for the plaintiff, his lordship recalled the jury, and told them that, as there were two pleas of justification which treated the trespasses complained of separately, one of which might hereafter be found to be good, and the other bad; to avoid any di ffi culty which might thence arias on a general aessesraent of damages, they mast find the damages—for the imprisonment of the plaintiff, for the searching ana shaving, for his hating been treated as • convicted misdemeanant and being so fad, for shaving him and cutting off his whiskers, all separately. Atter being absent some time, the jury returned a rerd;ct for the plaintiff—Damages, 261.—f0r the imprisoment, 61. ; for searching and sharing, 101. ; for improper treatment as a misdemeanant, 101. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-YESTERDAY. &I MP •T N/S1 PIUVA—BSPOII Lose Cam lifflCX WILMS ANA • Srecui. Jray.~ HOAILI v. 81LyzaLocx.—Linex.. Mr. Carter was counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Serjeant Shee and Mr. Creasy appeared for the detendant. This wee an action brought by Miss Sarah Mary Doan, the daughter of a deceased lieutenant in the royal navy, against the defendant, as the proprietor of a newspaper called the brownout Standard, published in Rutland-p!ace, Lower Themes-street, to recover compensation in damages for two alleged libel' which the defendant had published ooncorniag the plaintiff in his newspaper. The lint alleged libel wee dated on the 14th August, 1847, and the second on the 23rd et October in the same year. The fint alleged libel was said to be contained in a report of the case of " Hoare v. Dickson," which was an action for slander, which was tried at Croydon before Mr. Baron Puke, is the summer of 1847. A report of that trial appeared in the de fendant's newspaper, of the 14th of August, 1847. The first alleged libel, of which Miss Hoare now complained, was con tained in the speech of Mr. Serjeant Shoe, who en that oc casion appeared for the defendant, Captain Dickson, who was the Secretary to the Royal Naval Benevolent Society. Is the course of his speech at Croydon, the learned serjeant read letter from different parties containing etatentents seriously affectiag Miss Hoare character. A summary of those letters was given in the re. port of the trial which appeared In the defindant's uvrape, per. That summary was now said to be incorrect, and to have greatly injured the plaintiff. The statements contained In the letters have already append in our report of the case of " Hoer* e. Couplaud," which was tried on the 27th of last June. The mond a/loged libel was a report of the meeting of the members of the Royal Ravel Benevolent Society, when Kiss Hoare's claims to relief were discussed. Tsai report Os plaintiff sow cooplalsod of as libellous from Caledonian-road, the prisoners were found concealed behind an iron house, whin' is buiWing and destined for Canforcia. C:use by the spot a big containing 2571., In Bank of England notes, was found, end neing identified by the lady who bad been robbed, shed mantlen that it should be returned to Ler, which was acceded to by the person who found it. The prisoners were handed ovt rto tho police, ar d it *as thought that the lady robbed would follow to the station-house to prefer the charge against them, but she having recovered the property did not make her appearance. The inspector, however, conceived it to be his duty to detain 'the prisoners, as robberies of a similar description were con stan:it *befog committed with impunity. Several witnesses were examined, who deposed to these facts, and the prisoners were remanded until Tut sday next. Mr. Combs expressed a strong hope that tho lady vino had been robbed would come forward. A most intelligent officer was instrue•ed to look after the case, and to use every effort to trace the lady and the parties concerned in the PUBLIC SALES.
