The defendant, among other &loop, pleaded that he was justified in what he bad dom.. Mr. netpant P.irrir and Mr. Butler Rigby a for Mai plaintiff ; and Mr. Wordsworth and Mr. Robinson for the defendant.. . It 11111/ rtaled by counsel that the plaintiff, Mir Emily Bath. had been for five rears in the service of a lady named lampoons Hill, who was of such great eminence as a chiro podist, that she rut the OWNS of the anstocracy only— thinghter) —and it was believed that she was theorigmal . from which the character of Mn. M ooc h er , i n 'David Copperlielsh" was drawn. (Renewed laughter.) This lady died un the 14th April Ist, possessed of considers ble property. the bulk of which she left to the steleuilaat's wife. The plaintiff had had the oppor tunity of seeing bow Mi. $. Hill cut corns, and in Aurst last she started for herself in the business, and VIA apartments for the purpose in Marylehose-road. The name in which she mitered into business was Mi. Ends, else always having been called at Miss Hill's Emily, or Bile Emily. After Mies v.

The words used on this occasion formed the slander complained of. Mr. Wordsworth, at the conclusion of the plaintiff's case, submitted that there was no evidence of special damage, ina.much a the special damage alleged was not the rearry, certain, and proximate result of the words spoken. His Lordship, however, thought there was evidence for the jury. The courtl on each side addressed the jury for their cheats, but no witnesses were smiled for the defendant. His Lordship held that moat of thewonls spoken), though mouse and abusive, were nut actionable, unless the jury thought that the special damage spoken to had resulted from them. Part of the words were these, "Where did you get that watch front '." he did not think that this meant, as the ylsintilf contended, to insinuate that she stole it, hut if the jut.) thought otherwise, the words would then he actionable.

He was afraid that that was one of As ersesquincee that were likely to follow from the ope. votive el the present law. her doubled fist—(laughter)—made his nose bleed— (laughter)—got his head down, tumbled on top of him, wretched his face and pulled out his hair and whiskers. (Great laughter.) This continued until two butchers, with great difficulty, pulled her off him. (Laughter.) The plaintiff was taken away after he bad been rescued from the woman, and according to his account he was not the same man for twelve (lays. The woman outride the shop abused him and created • mob for half an hour, when she was taken away. The plaintiff's attorney wrote to the defendant for an apology and compensation, and no notice was taken of the letter, and instead of any contrition being ex pressed, the plaintiff, when he smune into court, was asked if he had not been bankrupt or insolvent. He said that was • very insulting question ; that he had been two years in his shop and nine years in the game street, and that he had been neither bankrupt nor insol vent. The learned counsel for the defendant, in his speech to the jury, declared that the action was • very trumpery one ; that the woman should have been taken to the po court ; cod that his client was a man of respectability and substance. The fury found for the plaintiff, with 100/. damages. Not a single word of regret was expressed at the trial ; on the contrary, it was alleged that the plaintiff was a very trumpery fellow, and that the defendant was a highly respectable man. (Laughter.) hfr. Day said that as the action had been brought against the husband and wide, he could not lay all the circum stances before the jury, oche was satisfied there would have been no such verdict. He could not show that the husband had not received the letter. Mr. Baron Martin—lf your client is a man of substance, 100/. will not hurt him. (Laughter.) Mr. Ay—He is a tobacootust, in Clerkenwell. Mr. Baron Martin—What do you say to the indignity offered toe man at his own door by • woman tlying at him like a tigress? (Laughter.) Mr. Day—No doubt there Irma certain amountof affront. But the plaintiff says the woman was drunk, and no doubt an insult from a drunken woman, as far r the indignity pea, is not ea peat as if she were sober. (Laughter.) 11 a drunken man assaults you in the street the indignity is not so great as if • sober man marks you for deliberate as sault. 100/. a very hire saga der the plaintiff to receive for • passing injury, and It is • lugs sum for iny client to Fay.

When • man memos • woman he is responsible for her assaults. (Laughter.) There is one law, and one measure for both. Mr. Baron Wilde concurred. Mr. Baron Brainwell—lf the jury bad given 50/. I could not have said the damages were too small. They gave 100/., and I cannot say they are too large. I think that the male defendant was sot so much to blame as the female ; but this I do feel bound to say, that a more insult ing and offensive thing than this was throughout, rode. ”odently of the beating and mobbing, there could not have been. No apology was offered to the plaintiff ; questions of a most insulting character were ,put to him, and he was finally told be had brought a trumpery action. Rule refused.

The protection was renewed to the 31st July. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before the Recorder.) Bent!, Bart, an elderly man, who was stated to be an attorney, was indicted for wilful end corrupt perjury. Mr. Ernest Jones conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Taylor were counsel for the defendant. The prosecutor in this case was Mr. Merton, the landlord of the Castle public-house, in Portugal.street, Lincoln's-Inn fields, and the charge against the defendant was preferred under the following circumstances:—lt seemed that he carried on his profession in the neighbourhood of the prose cutor's house, and that he was inthehabitof frequenting the Castle, and was on somewhat friendly terms with the prosecu tor. In °doter last, Mr. Merton hedreceitedabill terra 10s. from a lodger who was indebted to him, and afewdeysbefore it became due the defendant asked him to let him have pee session of this bill, no doubt with the object that in the event of it being dishonoured he might take legal proceed ings and obtain the profeetional costs to which he would be entitled. The prosecutor consented, and the defendant handed him' 31. 75., the sum of three shillinge being kept beck for has expenses in going to the City to ppaane~seesst the bill ; and there was au understanding betweenass that if the bill was paid, Mr. Mottos was to keep the etraey the defendant had given him and if it was noh, that this the money was to be returned. and the de fendant was to take legal proceedings upon the bill. When the hill wee peeesartsd, it was dishonoured, and on the fol. km* day the dekeidaet went to Mr. Merton's, and he gave him bask the wasey he had received from him, and the de dendsmt gave him a paper iedemnifying him front all legal liability for oasts ir any proosedlep that might be takes upon the bill, and the defendeat ales gave him a reesiO for the wan al TX. Rh. The prosecutor, after this, heard aothiattaant apes the matter andl the present mouth, sepia, las received a names to attend at Oenety Court to show muss why las should set the dolmen* the sum of 3/. 10., which he elainied as w balsas of the was ol 231. 104., which he had re ceived from the defeiniant under the circumstances above stated. The ra ta emir on, in due muse for hearing at the gaudy emit, and the defendant Ikea swore that Mr. Merlon only paid him 20/., and that this wee done about three weeks before the summon we honed, and not in the month of October, when the bill was dishonoured; and, with tepid to the re cap% he admitted that the signature was his handwriting, bat be lance that he could Doi sesesat foe Mr. Merton having pmeemion el it in any other way than that he had stales N has his slice. The result of the hearing at the eamaiy aeon wee, that the present defendant was nonsuitod --ce ether, a verdict we. given in favour of Mr. Merton, sad the the peanut 1111121116 me immediately preferred against illeleadest. The show hob wore clearly proved by Mr. Merton, who paired tie Assussisto referred to ; and his evidence was aufiestally maibined by his them, Mies Emma Merton. The VMS meesausined at sums length by Mr. h, but nethiag wheAsur w elated that in the slightest decree tended to West his testimony. Mr. Sleigh. in his address to the jury, said it was a very painful thing to see an old man, verging, as he wee in formed, upon seventy, and who wee alau an attorney, and whose name was at present upon the rolls of one of her Majesty's courts of law, standing at the bar of • criminal court charged with so serious a crime as wilful and corrupt perjury, and he mid he felt assured that the jury would not convect him of that offence unless upon the most clear and positive evidence. The learned counsel then called their attention to the facts of the case, and urged that it was possible that the defendant, being very old and decrepit', might have forgotten the real facts of the matter, and that be had lint wilfully sworn to what was false. . - The Recorder having summed up the evidence, the jury immediately returned a verdict of Guilfy. When the verdict had been delivered his lordship in quired the age of the defendant. Mr. Sleigh said that he was informed that he was seventy-two. He was also instructed to state that his mental faculties were very much impaired by his age and infirmities. The Recorder said he could not listen to a mere statement of this kind. There should have been some evidence, if the feet was instated. Mr. Ernest Jones said he thought it right to inform the court that the prosecution had been instituted by the direc tion of the judge of the county court, who was well acquainted with all the facts. The Recorder then addressed the defendant, &Wald that he had been convicted of an offence of the most serious de scription, upon evidence that was perfectly satisfactory to the court, and which left no doubt that he had committed the crime of wilful and corrupt perjury by deliberat e ly swearing that which he knew to be false in order to enforce an unjust claim for 70s. His offence was greatly aggravated by his position as au attorney of one of the superior courts of law, whose duty it was to assist the administration of justice, but instead of doing no be had endeavoured to poison it at its very source by the commission of this offence. Nothing but his age prevented him from puling upon him a sentence of penal servitude, which undwabtedly under ordinary circumstances would be inflicted for an offence of this character, and he should also take into con sideration that he would undoubtedly receive another punishment by not being permitted to remain upon the roll of attorneys for another instant after this conviction. Taking these facts into consideration, and also his great age, be should refrain from passing upon him a sentence of penal servitude, but his offence was • very serious one, and be felt called upon to pass a severe sentence. He then ordered the defendant to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour fur twelve months. CRYSTAL PALACE.

GUILDHALL. - - Joseph COVNISLOS VII summoned before Alderman Phillips, Colonel Plilsos. Alderman Copeland, and Alder man flumphery, for that be was the proprietor of an omni bus No. 6,968, plying between Paddin g t on an d L on d on Bridge, the conductor whereof did unlawfully take more than hislawkl krpz Mr. Tiaosm,, d No. 1, Falcon.street, Faleon.square, maid —I entered the defendant's omnibus on Friday night last about half-pat 11 o'clock at Ratbbone-place, and on arriving at the General Poet-office I tendered the natal fare of 3d. The conductor demandedBd., upon which I told him I had never paid more than 3d. and gave him a live shilling piece. Colonel Wilson—How much did he take? Complainant—He gave me 41. change, and said' "That is bow I serve such men as you." Conductor—He threatened to summon me, and as the matter waste be contested I said I would charge him the full fare of Is. Colonel Wilma—Did the conductor tell you that the fare was L. at the time you entered the omnibus? Complainant—No, sir; and I was not aware of there being a Is. fare. Conductor—lt is painted on the door, and I have a right claim it. The fare has been several imes disputed, but I have convicted persons who have refused to it before Mr. Henry, at How•street, and Mr. at Hazy lebone. . . . _ . Complainant—The Is. fare is imperceptible to pawners inside the omnibus. Inspector Duddy said—ln consequence of this complaint I have obtained a faithful copy of the table of fares in the omni►ua in question, and the Is. fare is so small, so illegibly painted, and in such a position as would render it impossible for pamengets in the omnibus to read it. Alderman Phillips (to Conductor)—Did you at find ask for 6d. and Una take Is. ! Conductor—l did air. Ido not deny it. Colonel Wilma—ls this a Loudon General Company's omnibus! Conductor—No, sir. Colonel Wilson—They would not be guilty of each a thing. Conductor—No, air? Colonel Wilson—No. They would be ashamed to prac tise such deception on the public. Oonductor—Wis run after the London General Omnibus Company, and I have done the same thing for the last 23 years. Alderman Humphery—l don't believe that, or you would have been found out before. _ Alderman Phillips—lf you have carried on this imposi tion so long, it is quite time it was put • stop to. This gentleman very properly tendered you the ordinary fare and objected to your demand for 6.1., and because he trusts you with a larger amount of money, you take la. I consider your conduct exceedingly reprehensilde. Alderman Copeland —I am inclined to think the gentle man would have been justified in giving you into custody for stealing the money. Conductor—l have only taken the fare according to the provisions of the act of parliament. Inspector Duddy—l wish to explain to the court that Covington is the proprietor of two omnibuses, the numbers of which are 6,988 and 6,234. They run from the Royal Oak, at Paddington, to the Railway Terminus at London. bridge. The ordinary farm by the London General Omni bus Company's vehicles and other omnibuses are 2d. and 3d., but the defendant's outside bills are printed with an in. tention to deceive, for between the words "Farringdou-street," which appal! in large letters, and a large fi gure of "2d.," the words 'To the Bank" are introduced, in letters so small as to be perfectly invisible to the general public riding by them omnibuses. Whenever either of the de fendant's omnibuses arrives at the Bank complaints of the passenger are sure to follow about the fires, and this morning I heard several of the defendant's entomer. de claring it was a regular swindle. I rode in the omnibus this morning for the purpose of obtaining • copy of the fares. The ordinary charges appear to have been painted by • professional hand, but the extraordinary fares com plained of are "daubed" in at the bottom of the door in anything but a legible manner or • conspicuous position. Colonel Wilson—Then • person would not be able to see it at night time ? Inspector Duddy—No sir, nor at any other time, from the Maids of the omnibus. The conductor said the omnibus was outside the court for the inspection of the magistrates., who accordingly went out to view it. They entered the vehicle, and having care fully observed the table of fares and its position returned into court. Alderman Phillips said—The nada of fares is not in actor dm= with the act of parliament, which requires them to be painted distinctly. and in a conspicuous part of the om nibus. The fares, " Before 9, a. m., and " After 11, p.m., and before 3, A.M., 1r.," are neither distinct nor ma conspicuous position. I aml my brother magistrates are of the same opinion with me that this is a gross attempt on the part of the proprietor of these omnibuses to impose on the public, and I therefore fine the defendant 20s. and costs. Conductor—Will you indict a heavier fine, so as to enable me to appeal, for I have had the point decided otherwise by other magistrates ? Alderman Phillips —But they did not see your omnibus. I have decided, and the case is therefore at an end. NASINO4 /lorry, who said her age was 17, but who did net appear more than 14, described as a meant, runthncL . t 34, Payne-street, Islington, was charged before Mr. court with atomism • pair of boots and other artioles7;arie 11., the property of Mr. Thomas B. Barker, Coegregathmal minister, residing at Brunswick House, lionsaa-road, Islington. From the evidence it appeared that the primer was em ployed during the frost toget some water and clean the steps of the door of the prosecutor's house, and thus had the op portunity of stealing the articles mi red. The police were spoken to, and the prisoner was traced by police-constable labridge, 145 N, and when told the nature of the charge, she denied any knowledge of the house or of the minium articles. She afterwards said that • can could be found at a certain place, and on the constable going there the can was found. The inquiries that the constable had made showed that the prisoner had been going to cheap plays, and bad also paid for another girl to accompany her. This, it was supposed, she had done out of the mosey she had ob tained from selling the articles she had taken away. The prisoner denied taking the boots, but mid that the psil which she was alleged to have stolen she had left on the prosecutor's door step. Kr. D'Synoourt said it was a case for further inquiry, and remanded the prisoner for a week. WESTMINSTER. The master of St. Margaret's and St. John's Workhouse, Westminster, applied to the magistrate under the following peculiar circumstances : Applicant said that on the previous nights, woman's children were admitted by order into the house, when be found that they were in the most loathsome and filthy state. The woman had been, with her children, admitted into the workhouse no less than twelve times since last JUDO, and when her children were again and again provided with proper clothing she sold it. Kr. Arnold—What do you wish me to do The Yager—l wish to masa against her in any form you may diet de for wilfu ll y neglecting to take proper care of her children. Mr. Arnold—The application is a very novel one. What were the consequences of the neglect! Did it lead to had health ! The Master—l am provided with a medical certificate on the subject. The medical certificate was handed to the magistrate, and after reading it, Mr. Arnold raid—This certificate states that they need medical treatment and care, but it does not say that it arises from neglect on any person's part, or that the chil dren's health has been in any way prejudiced by the con duct of the mother. iimilisaterl;:liall be able to prove that when you con sider it n Mr. Arnold— a case of this peculiar description I shall require medical information on oath before I can cant a warrant.

Hough, the coroner for Rutland, on view of the body of John Young, labourer, aged 79, whose death took place under the following circumstances. The deceased was employed in stone breakiug on the Pickworth road, and be and a fellow labourer, named James Alexander, 73 years of ago, were at work together, when a quarrel took between them ; high words led to blows, and it is that the deceased was the aggressor, he hanog struck Alexander with hie shovel. Upon this, the latter knocked his assailant down, and falling upon bim with his knees in the region of the abdomen, such internal injuries were pro duced that Young died two days after the affray. A past mortem examination of the body, made by Mr. Jackson, surgeon, of Stamford, showed that death moulted from in flammation of the bowels, apparently caused in the manner described. After hearing a mass of evidence the jury re turned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against James Alexander.

As the unfor tunate man bas been conined several times in the Wells Lunatic Asylum, there is no reason to suppose but that the rash act was biz own.

At the nquest on the body a verdict of " Found drowned" was returned. A GIGANTIC GIItAVIAO DOCK. —The Money Dook Bawd ate about to construct a gigantic graving dock at Birkeeheed.

Shy struck bran with FRAUD BY A TALLOW BROKER. Some sensation has been created, particularly in the Baltic Coffee-house and in the tallow trade, by the announcement of frauds to a large amount. It appears that Robert Fraser North, partner in the firm of Nickoll and North, described as oil, seed, tar, And tallow brokers, a house which has occupied a respectable position, has absconded, after having obtained by fraudulent means warrants for the delivery of tallow to a reported amount of about 10,0001. He has, it is said, obtained posses sion of them by passing cheques on his bankers for this amount, whilst his balance there was only 91. Mr. Nickoll, the senior and "sleeping" partner, is • respectable man, and is understood to be in no way implicated in his partner's misdeeds. The firm of Nickoll and North were yesterday made bank rupts. Their liabilities (including the 10,0001. fraudulently contracted) are computed at 25,0001. or 30,0001. Prompt measures have of course been taken to trace the offender and to prevent the further negotiation of the warrants. :Subjoined is one of the handbills, which have been extensively circulated : CAUTION TO sairemts, BROKERS, AND OTHERS. Whores' four several warrants, numbered respectively 147, 148, 149, and 150, and all dated the 30th January, 1861, the three first-mentioned warrants being each for the delivery of 50 make of tallow, ex Hamer, marked [B B—C], and the last of the said four warrants being for the delivery of 80 casks of tallow, also ex limper, and marked [B B—C), and numbered from 114 to 34 were obtained this day from the St. Katharine Dock Company, deliverable to the order of James C. Dalton, solicitor, of No. 3, Backlenbury, London, and whereas the delivery order OD which the said warrants were granted was ob tained by Keens. Nickoll and North from Years. Hub bard and Co. under fraudulent circumstances, all persons are hereby cautioned against taking the said warrants, or any of them, or making any advances thereon. Any information on the subject is requested to be given to Messrs Hubbard and Co., Bircbin-lane, London ; or to Yaws. Frealifields end Newman, Bank-buildings, London. Jan. 30, 1861. ELECTRIC AND INTERNATIONAL TELEGRAPH " The report of the directors states that the re ceipts for the half-year just concluded exhibit an advance over three of the correspoWing six months to the extent of 3,166/. ; and when it is remembered that the year 1859 pro duced an extraordinary increase over the earnings of any previous year, this must be considered satisfactory. The expenses show but 'little difference except in the item et maintenance. This is much larger than usual, arising from causes which are detailed in the engineer's report. Whilst the directors are satisfied that the proprietors will agree with them in considering that the true policy of the com pany consists in keeping every part of the works in the highest degree of efficiency, they are fully sensible of the duty of conducting everything with the greatest emnom. The net balance of profits on the operations of t he half-year, after payment of interest on the deben ture debt and calls in advance, is 35,1171., from which the directors recommend a dividend of 3/ per cent., leaving a balance of 6,141/. Who carried to the renewal fund. This fund now amounts to 29,578 L, and the proposed addition will raise it to 35,717 1. , leaving untouched the balance of undivided profits of 11,7821., to be again carried forward to the credit of the current half-year. Casualties have again occurred to the submarine cables during the half-year ; but the means which the company possees, the experience which their officers have acquired, and the extremely accurate tests now applied, whereby the precise spot of failure is at once detected, enable the repairs to be effected so rapidly, that but little practical inconvenience fs experienced. mi s rapidity of repair is materially facili tated by the fact that the company's cables are all laid in shallow water.

We regret to note the unusually heavy loan of steamers that has been recorded winos our last list. These misfortunes, with the small stock of useful vessels in the market, naturally tends to enhance the value of steam vessels remaining on sale. In freightage little has been done ; the inclemency of tho winter and continual gales may be said to have suspended all but unavoidable engagements. For the Mediterranean the quotations are merely nominal. For Baltic lower rain porta, however, suitable vowels are wanted; and the cad and coasting trade still command attention. Some contracts for new steamers have been entered into, but several of our builders are open to orders.—(From the cir cular of Mesas Alfred Brett and Co.) CHARGES ON GUANO IN THE HERSZY.—HeSitriI.

Gibbs and Co. was refused, the majority of the members of the board considering that their demands and threats partook too much of an aggressive character.
