Sidney Herbert to militia olikers, relating to the above subject " I hive had ander my consideration the conditions on which men belonging to the disembodied militia have hitherto been permitted to transfer their services to her Majesty's regular forces.

Yesterday a i ‘ court of inquiry " was held at the Town-hall, WinionseperMare, before Colonel Sir Wm. Miles, el the North Semereet Yeomanry Cavalry, of Leigh count, near_ _ ,Bristal • Calmed Luttrell, of a battalion of the riles, of Badgwese-ermrt, near Weston-super:Mare ; and Colonel Graham, nobly near Bridgwater, to inquire into allegations spirt Lientemat John Hugh Wadham Pigott Smyth Pigott , that he had been guilty of conduct unbecom ing an officio and a geadereaa. Mr. Pigott is a magistrate and deputy-lieutenant of the county, and lord of the manor of Weston-enper-Mare ; he was formarlythe captain of amrps of the North Baronet Yeomanry Cavalry. Some 10 or 12 months sines be made himself very actin in • • the volunteer utlllory corps for the town and neighbour hood of Weston, and owing in meat measure to his perseverance • od corps comisthig of two com panies wadi mr the undersiandiag being that he was to be a captain in the corps, and it was the wish of the members that he should be so, bat the Lord-Lien. Meant of the county (Lord Portman) merely appointed him lieutenant. The members thereupon assembled, ad on two occasions expressed th eir unanimous wish that Mr. Pigott should be a captain, and it was understood by the deputation who waited upon Lord Portman with &memorial from the members on that behalf in August, that his lord ship intimated that provided Mr. Pigott would accept the commission of lieutenant he would be within a few days gmetted as captain of one of the companies. He did ro a:cat' but was not garotted, and as the result much has been experienced by members. Many of t em have resigned while others have abstained from attending drill. So recently as last week two of the privates were tried by court-martial, for having at an ion in the town used unbecoming language towards the assistant surgeon. The result of that investigation ia not yet known, but as they did not deem it worth their while to make any defence, or even to put in an appearance, it is more than probable that it will be held that the charge made against them has beau proved, and that they will be dismissed the corps. It is due to the alma however, to state that they have made strenuous efforts to keep the corps together. Mr. Pigott bad been requested to resign altogether by Mr. Lovell, the secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant, but he pe remptorily refused. The present was an inquiry with ra ference to what took place four months since at drill. The corps was paraded Tinder arms and in full dram at ; tended by the bend, in front of the Town-hall to receive the respective coleus* upon whose arrival arms were presented, the band giving the national anthem. Much interest was I evinced in the proceedings, and a large number of the public had congregated on the spot. None, however, were ad mitted into the room in which the inquiry was to take place, except the respective colonels who were to preside over i t, the of icem of the corps and the various w itnesses who attended by summons, he. Upon the opening of the court, Sir Wm. Miles, the chair ' man, said that the present was a preliminary inquiry, and that all parties, excepting the prosecutor and the defendant, would have toretine Mr. iiciie i ( ii:Wister-atlaw of the western circuit), in structed by r. T. Smith, then applied that he might be heard on the part of Mr. Pigott, and that the enquiry might be conducted in open court. The Chairman intimated that there wan an objection to such a course. It was mot allowed in volunteer enquiries for the defendant to he represented by a proteadoeal seas. A coovereatien then took place in a low tone between the chairman and Mr. Stone. The conversation was almost in audible, but it was whispered in court that Sir William war recommending Mr. Stone to advise his client to resign. Mr. Stone then held &conference with Mr. Pigott and Mr. Jones, Mr. Pigott's steward, and subsequently, Mr. Stone announced that his client would not resign, but would have the case investigated. The court was then cleared of all except General Cox, the pro form! prosecutor, and the captain•onmmandiant, and Mr. hgott, the ddendant. Even the advocate who wan retained by the officers of the corps (Mr. J. 11. Clifton, of Bristol) left the court. The fint witness examined 10111 the hoe. imrpon (Mr. Stringfield), to whom the objeetiocable remark/ way Anal to have been used. The depositions were taken by Mr. E. Lovell, insisted by Mr. William Smith, solicitor, of Weston, and the chairman stated that they would be returned to the convening officer, the Lord-Lieutenant, who, if necessary, would direct a more important inquiry. There were four allegations against the defendant to the following effect :—Pint, that he called the corm generally a lot of roves and swindlers ; second, that be said be would tear up Lord Portman's commission and send him back the fragments ; third, that he would get Lord Port man out of his office of Lord-Lieutenant ; and the fourth, the (spend charge that he bad been guilty of conduct un becornieg an officer and a gentleman. Several witnesses were examined for the prosecution, but none for the defence. The proceedings Listed several hours. Firra Ems= RI/Mi.—The firing for the prizes offered for competition to the members of this battalion was concluded on Saturday last, the Bth current. Notwith standing the very unfavourable state of the weather—it rained incessantly—the twenty members who bad excelled in the trials all paraded, and fi red fi ve rounds each at 250 sad 300 yank The result was, that the first prize (a rifle, value 25 • ), the gift of J. L Bette, Fig., was won by Mr. A. Stewart, ensivi, No. 3 Company ; the second, a gold medal. value 10 guineas, the gift of Lieut.-Colonel Capper, by Mr. Otto, a member of No. 8 Company ; the a third, rifle, value 5 guinea., the gift of Major But, by Mr. Soddy, a member of No. 4 Company ; and the fourth, a silver claret jug, value 5 guineas, the gift id Mr. Charles Percy, by Mr. 'Weston, a member of No. 2 Company. The shooting, considering the weather, was very good, the winner of the first prize making ten, and the whiners of the awn tying at am• paints. SPORTING nrraumENcE. TATTERSALL'S—Mox DAY.

The annual cattle show ot this aoellit z took place on Thursday. The dinner was tmeided wt be t county conservative member, GIRARD WWI f e was p. ported by Sir William Medlycott, Bart, Henry Hoare, Major Portman, Revs. Marston, Thompson (vicar of Lye), and Leedom, W. Rook', Melmoth, Esq., he. The usual loyal toasts having been given, The CHAIRMAN, in reply to the tout of his health, said, through their kindness he had for a number of years be longed to an assembly where one very soon learns to appre ciate short speeches, and to have • wholes o m e of long and prosy ones. He should, therefore, be very brief. Indeed, be to him by a gentleman well known to all farmers as a practical and eminent authority—the Duke of &A- I mond. He maid—" I dare say you will have to at tend a great many agricultural dinners in your lifetime, so take my advice and never speak for more than ten minutes, for if you cannot say all you have to say in ten minutes, you are not the sharp fellow I take you to be.' (Lasighthr.) One of his reasons for • there was to =and gath their annual and show, be conscientiously believed these meetings tended mot *sly to promote the cultivation of the soil but, what to him was of much more importence ' to improve and elevate the social and moral condition of all who join this company. No sight was more pleasing to him when reaming home from hunting than the marked improvement which had taken place in the habits of the pa/gantry of this county. In his opinion this question was of no small micement, for the labourer is the muscle and the sinew of the land. (Cheers.) After some further remarks on this subject, the hon. gentleman said that he knew very wall that politics were not allowed at these meetings. (Go on.) He did not think it right to break this rule, for they wen sometimes very diasgrecable. There were one or two events which had taken place since he had the pleasure of seeing them, which might be touched upon without interfering with the harmony of the meeting. The hon. gentleman referred to the recent commercial panic, and the ride movement which sprang out of it. They had recently seen a great people, hitherto borne down with tyranny mid despotism, struggling nobly and, they hoped, succemdully, for that freedom and liberty which we know so well how to appreciate. No ome milling himself an Englishman could help wisLing well to that cause. But with that cause was connected the name of a man who would never be mentioned before an English audience with out eheiting applause—that man wee Garibaldi. Mere was • gesitleman sitting near him who had given • very enbetan tial ides of his opinion concerning Garibaldi. He waegoWg to call him an illustrious stranger, hut he could hardly do that, as he was chairman of this meeting last year—he re. (erred to his friend Sir Henry Hoare. He well recollected ta king up the Daily News and aeon • letter from his and at the end of it • donaticei of 50f. for Garibaldi. He merely said that be was glad to see his friend Sir Henry was pretty well off. Sots after he again took cep the Daily News, and he mow another letter with a donation of WI., and he amid not help exclaiming, Why, upon my word, the fellow mud be quite flush. (Lou d up At the same time he was afraid their senti ments were not exactly the same, for be thought Victor Emmanuel was in too gnat • hurry. He would have done • great deal better to have waited • little time until he was asked to go. He was liberal enough or radical enough to gay that if the Neapolitans as • nation wished to have Martini for • governor they were quite at liberty to do so. With regard to Cavour, he believed no (one disliked him more than Garibaldi. He is not open and straightforward. He recollected Lord John Russell getting up in the House of Commons end saying that Count Cavour had deceived him, and he quite with that speech. He was afraid that he was ' through the advice given him— (Go on)—but on behalf of colleagues, Mr. Portman and Mr. Seymer, he would say that he was sure that there were no two men who more earnestly wished at more actively worked to do their duty. (Cheers.) He concluded by returning thanks on his own behalf, and resumed his seat loudly applauded. The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of Mr. Digby, of Bberborne Castle, whops generosity, whether in giving thoueands of pounds to the restoration of their church or in building good cotagva, was so widely known, and whose hoopitalitT i , l in addition to being princely,/ was rendered doubly de htful to the recipient by the affable manner of the host. (Cheers.) Major PORTMAN acknowledged the compliment, and said that be was sure Mr. Digby would be delighted to hear of the excellent show of horses. Mr. Digby was only absent in consequence of ill health. W. FIOORS, Fag., rose and proposed the health of Sir William Medlyoott. He had known the weekly baronet for a great number of years, and he was also &Wider well known to all present as a constant attendant at these meeting (Chews.) s, and al • subscriber to the Sherbarne Agricultural Society. Sir W. XiDtvcrirr briefly acknowledged the toast. The Bev. E. HARISTON proposed the health of Sir Henry Hoare, and alluded to the surnames contained in the public rfrin reference to • probable closer connexion between . Hoare and the neighbourhood. Sir IL BOAZ'S rest, and said that he thought the Shoe horn, show sea one vast conspiracy against the peace of mind of unsuspecting gentleman. (Laughter.) He cams there to perform a double act of dutyy, which at the same tints was a pleasure. Sir William Medlyoott and theirwe ws i president had both said that politics were never . at public meeting' ; but he, in his humble and private posi tion, bad been alluded to in a political sense. As Mr. Gerard Sturt had chosen to couple his name with that of Garibaldi the fault must be his if be infringed the rule. Mr. Sturt had chosen to Sod fault with Victor Emmanuel and Count Cavour. He thought Mr. Gerard Start VIA quite turm ... and he would tell them why. They were all fox men, and would understand his simile. Garibaldi weeeg uncommonly hard, straight at the stems of the hounds, and driving them off the scent : when the hunts man came up he was obliged to blame those too ardent sportsmen, and to make a wide cast to recover his bettor. (Cheers.) He had one more word on • political gunnies. Mr. Gerard Sturt, their conservative member, just rid ward or two about Mr. Bright, and he (Sir H. Hoare), as • liberal candidate, agreed with him in all that he said. Mr. Stud had said that he thought Mr. Bright wrong in the remarks which be recently made in regard to landed ptoprietors and the law of primogeniture in entail. He (Sir Henry Hoare) hoped the tenant-farmers of this country would mark wall what Mr. Bright mid. He said that the present laws with respect to the sale and division of land had a twofold affect. First, they reduced the cottager to aa abject state of degradation and poverty, end put the tenant-farmer in a state of wpended animation. B. did not think it could be too highly blamed. He mid also that if thsy had that horrible idea, the ballot, as • remedy for corruption and intimidation, liberals would not be returned in so many places where there are vast proprietors of land. He (Sir EL Hoare) also said that, supposing the ballot to be a remedy for cormptiors and intimidatioN which he de. Wed, neither in liorsetshire nor in Somerselre would Mr. Bright be returned. (Cheeps.) Some other toasts having been drank, the proceedings terminated. ESCAPE AND CAPITRE OP • COIMICT.—A con vict named Archibald Nicholls, who is undergoing a long period of penal servitude, contrived to make his escape from the gang with whom he wee employed in Chatham dock yard on Saturday afternoon, without being perceived by the warder in charge. On making his escape the convict managed to obtain pomsesion of a coat belonging to' ea* of the workmen, and this be put on, after which he escorted himself behind some timber in a secluded part of tbe dock yard. Every search warn made for him, and • reward of 51. offered for his capture, it being supposed that he had passed out of the dockyard with the workmen. Last evening, however, one of the dockyard police succeeded in dressed in secreted behind some timber in the dockyard, in the coat which he bad stolen. Be was immediately con veyed back to the convict prison, to await the punishment for being at large. THEFT BY A LIVERPOOL LETTER-CARRIER. —Yee kids, the Liverpool magistrates were engaged in investi gating', charge of robbery preferred against - Matthew Bell, • letter-can:er and sorter in the Liverpool Poet-office. consequence of numerous complaints of the non-delivery of letters containing money, kc., the post-office authorities bad their suspicions aroused, and • trap was set for Bell. On Sunday morning last • letter containing two half sovereigns and twelve postage stamps (marked) were directed to • house, No. 72., Campdemlitreet, London-road. This letter the prisoner, in due course, would have to deliver ; but as there was no such number in Oampden-street, and as Bell did not return the letter, his lodgings were searched, and in a small book the twelve marked stamps were found, but not the money. The charge having been proved, the prisoner was committed for trial. DEATH BY BURNING IN WALTON GAGL.—EliEE bath Wright, • prisoner in Walton Gaol, charged with housebreaking, was so severely burnt on Saturday night last by her clothes having become ignited by the gaslight in her cell, that she ex. ired early the following morning.

EQUITY COURTEL—Dsc. 10. (Wogs Vico-Chanoollor Etir W. P. Wood.) TURZCZR v. 1111 OCIARDIABB 01 THZ WEBS BROMWICH UNION. Ilia was a suit to rescind and set aside a contract for sale of a piece of land belonging to the defendants, notwith standing that the purchase was almost completed. The property was sold by the defendants to the plaintiff as freehold, but after investigating the title, as old deed of 1717 turned up. This deed was made between the lord of the manor of West Bromwich and the then guardians of the poor of the town, and from it the propnrt now in question appeared to be copybold, the itself being for ' the commutation of tithes, and payable by the date .Mante in consideration of the payment of 10a. once every seven years by the guardians. Upon the disoovery of this deed the plaintiff contended that be ought to be released from his bargain, and the purchase money, which he had already paid, refunded to him, upon the ground that the property which he bought as freehold was, in fact, copyhold. Mr. Wilcock, Mr. Daniell, Mr. De Gez, and Mr. Druce, appeared for the parties. The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the purchase ought to be rescinded, and the purchase money repaid with intermit. The defendants had bad possession of the deed in question, and therefore had the means of ascertaining the tenure of the property which they proposed to sell. There was sufficient doubt amt upon the state of the title by the deed, and the relief prayed by the bill must therefore be given. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCE —Doz. 10. Elittinp at Nisi Priva after Term for lifiddleser..—(Haloes the Lord Chief Justice and a Common Jury.) • NATLI T. ELLIOTT. This was the last day of the sittings; and no less than Sr. hours were occupied with the trial of this trumpery case—for so his lordship in summing up designated it. It WA an action for two trespasses on the plaintiff's dwelling house, and ejecting him therefrom. The plaintiff is a gresegrooer, in the occupation of the house, 10, Skinner -Bt. Pancras, and the defendant is a oheesemonger in the Edgware-road, and the landlord of the house, 10, Skin neralireet. Hearing that the plaintiff was about to remove all his good' from the house, the defendant placed • dia.' trees warrant in the hands of • broker on the even. lag of Saturday, the 20th of July, for • quarter's rent then due. The broker's men arrived at No. 10, before four o'clock on the Monday morning, just in time to prevent the goods from being taken away in the cart of the plaintiff's father. One of the men then advanced into the shop, which was open, and acquainted the plaintiff, who was there with his wife, hie sister, and • young lad, with the purpose for which he bad come, whereupon the plaintiff collared him and sent for • large dog to aid in expelling him from the premises. The broker's representative being • very diminutive little man, this was effected without mach difficulty, the plaintiff's wife scratching his face into the bargain. However, in acting thus under the authority of a warrant, the man MIS charged with being a trespass., and with all but causing the death of the plaintiff's wife, through the noise and uproar which the proceeding gave rise to. The second trespass was stated to have been com mitted the same night close upon 12 o'it when the broker's men, finding the bowie closed them, removed the abutters, and forced their way in. Next morning the plaintiff endeavoured to get into his house, but he was refused admission by the men in_poeses and he was so kept out until Wednesday. The de fendant's case was that the man was lawfully in the house to levy • distress for the quarter's rent when he was forcibly ejected. Subsequently, in the course of the same day, the warrant was withdrawn by the defendant, although the man who had been ejected might have used force to re-enter ; therefore the second entry, end what took place under it, was unauthorised by the defendant, nor had he approved of the acts of the men after • knowledge of them reached him. His lordship, in summing up, said there was not a shadow of doubt that the intention of the plaintiff was to have re moved all his goods off the premises. The jury found for the defendant, but in order to avoid all risk, in obedience to his lordship's directions, they assessed the damages, on account of the plaintiff's ejection from his house for two days, at one farthing. This was to meet the contingency of the plaintiff moving the court upon the finding. Mr. Cr:Eta represented the plaintiff ; Mr. Shaw the defendant. With the trial of the above cause the sity were brought to • conclusion, the list in each court being During the fortnight they hated forty.four causes were tried. To-morrow (this day) the court sits at Guildhall for the London aittinp. IMOOND COURT. Sittings at Nil Print at Westminster.—(Before Mr. Jurtire Crompton sad Common Juries.) JOHABOA V. 111111111.—A88AOLT. Mr. Francis appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Huddle, for the defendant The plaintiff in this case, a bricklayer, brought this action spinet the defendant, who was his late landlord, for a Manus and assault. It appeared that in the summer of the present year the plaintiff contracted with the defendant to do some main, and in order to do so he rented a room in one of the defendant's houses at 3s. per week. In July the defendant quarrelled with his wife, who ran into the plaintiffs room for protection, upon which the defendant insisted that his wife and the plaintiff should leave his house. The plaintiff refused, and a is ensued, in which the defendant was thrown down. The defendant then left the room, but shortly afterwards returned with a gun, and threatened to shoot the plaintiff, who pushed him out of the room, upon which the defendant made such a noise outside that the plaintiff could not sleep. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 20s. 00IIRT OF COMMON PLEA/EL—Die. 10. Sittings ►t Nisi Prins in London.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erle and a Special Jury.) MANUS W.

In 1856 the plaintiff had entered into • contract to supply about 18,000 tons of coal to a gam company at Toulouse, and in consequence he entered into a contract with the defe ndants, by which they undertook to deliver at Bordeaux 12,000 tons of Welsh gas or coking coals at the rate of 1,000 tons • month, the first shipment to be in No- vember, 1866, and the price 20h. 6d. a ton. No coals were delivered in November, and in December there were only 514 tons ; January, 636 tons ; and February, 338 tons. After February no coals were delivered. Those sent in December were not of proper quality, and were refused in France. Under these circumstances the plaintiff claimed damages, for the supply having been deficient in quantity, and f o r part of those sent having been of inferior quality.

Sittings at Nisi Prins in London.—(Before Mr. Justice Willi:sands Common Jury.) SWANN r. COCITRANIC AID CYTHLitB.-DILAPIDAIIO/18. This action was brought under the following circum italaCPi. The plaintiff was tenant of a wharf and promises at Backside, Southwark, the landlords being the Tallow chandlers' Company, and in 1856 the plaintiff let the wharf to the defendants, who subsequently pulled down some sheds and a stable standing upon the wharf. The Tallow chandlers' Company made • claim against the plaintiff for dilapidation, and be had to pay 2501. He now claimed against the defendants in respect of the old buildings which they had pulled down. The principal contention on the part of the defendants woe that they had the leave and license of the plaintiff to do as they had done. His lordship directed the jury that in the event of their finding for the Plaintiff they must bear in mind that the plaintiff's liability for dilapidation we, greeter than the defendants', the plaintiff being a leaseholder, and hav ing entered into • stringent covenant to repair, and the de fendants being simply tenants from year to year.

This was an action to recover certain sums of money for the working, &c., of Ntents for manufacturiog casks under certain agreements. The defendant pleaded that he had performed his part of the contract. Mr. Lush, Q.C., and Mr. Macnamara were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Manisty, Q.C., end Mr. Banes were counsel for the defendant. Mr. Lush, in stating theca.* to the j said—The plain tiff resides at Old Ford, and the defe nda nt is a cooper, carrying on business in Leman-street, Goodman's-fields, Whitechapsl. In 1853 and 1864 the plaintiff invented certain machine. for manufacturing casks (all except hew ing them) without manual labour, except what was neces sary to work the machines, the effect of which would be to materially hewn the wet of production. In 1864 the defendant applied to the plaintiff with a view to purchase the inventions, which resulted in an arrangement to work them. The plaintiff, in consideration of 2001., to be paid by instalments, assigned the patents to the defee lia stipulating that the plaintiff should g i ve hi s undivided attention to their completion, and that the def en d an t s h ou ld forthwith proceed to carry than out in a cooperage on a large scale. The plaintiff was also to have a salary of 1001. a-year for the first year, 1501, for the second, sad so on, with 15 per cent, on the profits on the saving of manual labour reaulting from the working of the patents, and 50 per cent, on all lemmas to work the patent. ; the defendant finding the money requi site for perfecting the patents. In 1855 and 1866 the plain tiff mode further improvements, and other patents were taken out, which were assigned to tile defendant upon cer tain conditions. la 1867 the defendant pot up two or throe of the machines which proved satisfactory ,but the plaintiff contended the defendant had not fulfilled his part of the agreements. The matter was then submitted to the cowl &ratios of Mr. Bruner, editor to the Meeitantee Magazine who is flopi., 1859, said that if he wss called u .n make an award, he should order the paymentef 1,111 . within a month from that date in full satisfaction of all claims, and 350/. more for his interest in the 15 per cent, on all licenses granted. The defendant approved of it, and sent it to the plaintiff, who subsequently agreed to it, when the defendant gave notice of abandonment. At this stage of the proceedings the learned counsel con ferred together, and informed his lordship that they had agreed to a ve rdict for the plaintiff for 4001., subject to Stoma The jury accordingly returned a verdict for the plaintiff for 4001., on terms. lULET T. BAIIEEDALE.-ACCIDENT. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, administmtrix of her deceased husband, to recover compensation in da mages from the defendant, the extensive carrier, carrying on business under the name of Pickford and Co. The decla ration stated that the deceased was a servant in the de fendant's employ, and that the defendant exposed him to unneoramry risk and danger in the course of his employ ment, contrary to the terms of his agreement, whereby he was killed. The defendant pleaded not guilty, and that the deceased was not a servant in the terms mentioned in the declaration. Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., and Mr. Dutton were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Mellor, Q.C., and another learned counsel, were counsel for the defendant. Mr. M. Chambers in stating the plaintiff's case, said the plaintiff brought the action against the defendant to recover compensation for a fatal accident that happened to her husband, who was a porter in the defendant's service. It was a question involving the liability of employers, and was one of considerable importance. Unquestionably under the common law a master was bound to employ competent persons in the discharge of his ordinary business, and not to expose those in his employ to unnecessary danger. On the 12th of March the deceased was engaged, with others, in lowering a very large truck of goods to the defendant's premises from the railway, and in consequence of its ex treme size, when it was on the turn-table, and beinglowered down, the deceased was crashed to death between the buffer and the wall of the warehouse. The Lord Chief Berea said he was not aware of the doe trine laid down, viz., that a master was liable, under the circumstances, for the incompetency of other men in his employ. Mr. Chambers said the master had caused a truck to be on the L turn-table, which he knew could not safely done. He contended there was an implied contract be tween muter and servant, that the latter should not be exposed to unnecessary danger. The Lord Chief Baron said he was of opinion there was no such implied contract. Mr. Mellor said the deceased had worked the turn-table and the truck in turn for four years. The plaintiff wee ultimately nonsuited. COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL OAUSES.—DEc. 10. (Before Sir C. Creswell and a Common Jury.) WHITTAL r. warrrai AND HUNT. Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., mid Mr. E. Ward, were counsel forth. petitioner ; sod Mr. Whitely, Q.C., and Mr. Mac quern, for the respondent. Whittal was a proprietor of cabs at Birmingham. He married in 1843 and had several children. In consequence of his wife's drunken habits he was obliged to separate from her in 1852, and she went to live with a baker named Huai The respondent, in addition to a denial of the adultery, pleaded that her husband had been guilty of cruelty and de sertion. She was not allowed to give evidence in support of these charges, but several witnesses were called oa her be half, who stated that they had frequently seen the peti tioner strike and kick her. The jury returned a verdict for the petitioner on the issue of adultery, for the respondent upon the issue of cruelty, and for the petitioner upon that of condonation. His lordship dissolved the marriage. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT. —Dix. 10. (Before the Chief Oomatiolacer.) IN RI MANN. This insolvent, a vocalist, mown as " Henry Herbert," applied for his final order. Mr. Dowse supported. On the former occasion the insolvent had proposed to set aside 701. a year out of his professional income, and the commissioner thought it was too much, and advilea the insolvent to consider the matter by the day appointed for the final order. DO;ne said the insolvent had considered the matter, and thought it would be better to make the proposal bOl. a year. The Court was satisfied, and the use dead over, with renewed protection, for the payment under the proposaL In one of the applications for hail it appeared that the detaining creditor was clerk to the attorney taking the insolvent through the court, and another clerk had taken the instructions. The attorney stated that he had attested the petition. The parties were not his clients, but he had done business with them. They sometimes prepared schedules, and be attended to the case. The court took bail, but gave the insolvent very little hopes of passing through the court on such an wrest. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.--NowniemproN, Dia 10.

Mr. Brandt prosecuted ; the prisoner was undefended. The child gave • very straight forward account of the transaction, and the case was fully made out. His lordship, in sentencing the prisoner, remarked upon the enormity of the offence, espwislly for • man of the age of the prisoner, and sentenced him to fifteen years' penal servitude. The prisoner said it was no use having them tested. It was all right that had been stated, and he admitted they were not genuine, and it was no use going to the trouble of testing them. Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk. said it did not matter what he thought. The law required that the facts should be The prisoner wan then remanded. Bdwia Brewer, a respectable-looking young man, who was apprehended last week by Smart, one of the detective police, upon the charge of obtaining goods by falae pretence, from Messrs. Caldecott and Co., warehousemen, of Cheap. side, was brought up for re-examinatioo. The nature of the case was fully stated on the former 001:81400. The prisoner had been in the service of 3lessr.. Spencer, Baldwin, and Co., drapers, Lisson-grove and was consequently acquainted with all the City wholes a le houses with which they were in th e h a bit o f do ing business. lie was dismissed in May het from the service of Mean,. Spencer and Co., and it appeared that he went to the Wale. house of Mesas. Cildeoott and Co., and obtained a quantity of alpaca, value 31. 15a., under the pretence that Ida late employers, Mesas : Spencer and Co., required the arti c le, aid he pledged it immediately at the shop of Mr. Grant, a pawnbroker in London-wall, for 1/. lbs.

Bradbury and Co., of Alder manbury, which he directed to be sent to the warehouse of Messrs. Dent, Holcroft, and Co., of W oodetreet, and he applied to that firm for the parcel, but that firm, it alp. entertained some suspicion and refused to let him peered, entertained Ia another case it appeared that the prisoner ob tained a piece of silk from Messrs. C a ndy and Co., of Wat ling-street, of the value of Si. Os. 3d., which he pawned immediately afterwards. Snuirt, the offi,vr, deposed that from information he re. mired he apprehended the prisoner at a public-house in the neighbourhood of his late employers' residence, and upon searching him he found the duplicate relating to the pro. perty that he had fraudulently obtained from the different wholesale houses. _ The prisoner, when eked whether he wished to make any answer to the charges made against him, replied that he had nothing to say. He was then fully committed for trial upon the three cases above mentioned, but it was stated that a great many other charge, of a siinibx character could have been sub. etentiated against him. The Lord Mayor requested that it might be announced that three guineas had been received 4om " T." for the poor-boa. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-ROUSE. A canning-looking, .3.;, named Abraham Moses, was yesterday brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with an attempt to defraud Henry Harris. The complainant, a very young man, but who appeared in the sequel to have been more than a match for the Jew, stated that on Sunday evening he was in Liverpool , street, on his way home, when the prisoner came up to him, and in a mysterious manner asked him to step on one ide, and then said, "Young man, I want to speak to you. I am just come from Australia, and I have got a ring of Australian gold and a silver chain ; I am bard up and must have some money, and you shall have them for a pound." At the same time that be said this the prisoner put into his hand a ring of the colour of gold, and a chain that looked like silver, but on looking at the articles be saw that they were nearly worthless. He asked the prisoner if the ring was gold, end he replied, Yea, it is sold — real Australian - gold." (A laugh.) He next inquired if the chain was silver, and the Jew in an equally positive man ner asserted that it was. He then asked the prisoner to go along with him a little way, when Le wantedto know where he was going to take him, and muttered something about the " bobbies" (policemen)bning oaths look out, and &con stable came np shortly afterwards, and Le gave the prisoner into custody. The Lord Mayor asked the witness how he came to dis cover so readily that the articles were spurious.j The witness replied that he wan itioistant toe pawnbroker, and understood perfectly well the nature of this kind of goods. The Lord Mayor observed that the prisoner appeared to have pitched upon a wrong customer. (A laugh.) The complainant then said that the chain was merely composed of some white motel, and the ring was brass or some common metal, merely partially swindled with gold. The two were not worth more than a shilling. He had not tested them, but he hail no doubt as to the character of the articles. D. E. IL D. F. C.
