• .• MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Dso. 11. Tl . • ___. * - a show that no mach Court as that mentioned in the de. fendants plea, was in existence at the time the process issued. S;miformal evidence was then gone into, and after considerable discussion, it was proposed by The Cosmos, SIRGEANT, for the defendants, that a verdict should be taken for the plaintiff for nominal damages ; the defendants undertaking to give up the furniture, and pay the costs of the action. This was acceded to by Sir J. SCARLET?, and a ver dict was then entered for the plaintiff—damages 40u COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Die. it. Ltaet.—rataot.r, °VAT. Ve This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover Compensation in damages for an alleged libel; the de fendant pleaded, first, the general issue; andoecondly, a justification. , The plaintiff, at the time the letter which formed the subject of the present action was written, was an attorney, living in Queen-street, and was the profes sional adviser of a Company called the 4 ' Battle Bridge and Holloway Road Company." The defendant was the proprietor of certain lands through which the intended new road was to pass; but before the Act of Parliament was obtained, Mr. *William sent to the Company., a written dissent from the pro posed Bill, , and protested against the intended alter ations: After the passing of the Act, -4 writ' of in lulu was directed to t the Sheriff to assess the da m +get the defendant would sustain by the road passing through his property. On this inquiry the plaintiff was examined as a witness for the Company, and being asked if' Mr. *William had protested against the road, replied, that he could noetecollect that he had ever re ceived any letter to that eff..ct ; but he shotdy after- Wards said that he recollected there was a communica tion front the defendant. On this mistake the charge af perjury was made. The Jury, on the inquiry before the Sheriff, assessed the damages at 1,5001. and an ac count of the proceedings which took place appeared in. the Alarming Chronicle of the following day.. The de fendant shortly afterwards sent a letter to the Directors of the Company, in which he charged Mr. Pringle, the plaintiff, with having perjured himself, and 'that he foended the charge upon the report which appeared in a respectable Morning Paper. This was the libel com plained of. Mt. Sergeant Wane was heard at some length for the defendant, and after a conversation between Counsel, it was agreed to take a verdict for the defendant on the plea of the general issue, and for the plaintiff on the plea of justification. A verdict to that effect was accordingly entered. The LORD CHM JUSTICE, on the application, said be thought it aas a proper case for him to Male 'HUNT V. H. GSM/11AL DS DLAQUIRS• • : Mr. Sergeant WILDS stated the caseto the Jury. The Laintiff is an Upholsterer at Brighton, and had supplied dy S. Blaquire with furniture to a considerable amount. The plaintiff, at the time, was not aware that Lady Maguire was separated from her husband, but Oat withsranding thi.,.the plaintiff was entitled to recover. : nary Ainsworth, 'who was lorinerly a female set; east tf the defendant, stated - that Genetal end Lady Sarah Blaquire had separated in 1814. Her Lady ship had always behaved with the greatest propriety. The stn s,f the plaintiff proved the delivery of the furniture in the year 1825. Sarah Ainsworth recalled—The defendant had often Muck hit wife, and they were constantly quarrelling. The Generel•confised his wife lot three or four days at a time to her room.

ORATORICAL 'DISPLAY rum Tilt DOCK. - Mrs. hleamoi Bow, a stout spirited dame of some standing at Sr. Glics's, and who delivered her S. frumpy y" o a ioa from the Ear of the Court; with her aims folded on her bosom. a la lionapartir, was charged by bee of the beadles'ot the - above palish with commit tirg• an assault on his person. at St. Citle:s we/Abeam. The beadle said 'hat this %%omen's conduct in the piish towards the office s was so outragrous and unbearably, drat the vestry were resolved to endeavour to check ha vi lone by prosecuting this indietnient. The defendant delivered an elaborate oration lo her defence, which occupied the time the Court for.to fitintoes,do ring *bier her gesticulations were vehement,, ' teed her latiguage so high-hoesn and original, and so oink withal, that the Court was convulsed Her e* biter rdia (she assured tie Bench), that this was *Uhl conspiracy to ruin her profession& reputation in the eyes of the public.

After a further display in a similar strain, the pri neper' oratory proved ineffectual. The Jury (mind ter Guilty of the assault, and the Court 'sentenced her to two womb s imprisonment in thehlouse of t;otrection. Tt.e Report cf the Committee of Accounts was received. - The Reportof die Viskiag Magistrates was received, with respeetto the state of the Co'd Bath Pri-i son. h appeared that there wese now confined there 59a males, 207 females, and 14 children. The Magi, crates recommended that the storekeepers salary should be increased from two guineas a week to 1501. a year; and that the clerk's salary should be increased from 1601. to 2001. a year, The Report of the Visiting Magistrates with respect 1 to the NewPrisnn was received, from which it appeared that there were at present confined therel94 males, 83 females, and two boys. An application was then made by Mr. BALLANTYNE, for permission to send the prisoners of the Tower Li. betties to the County Prison. • From the discusorm that took place on the subject, it appeared that the Charter of the Tower Liberties did not authorise any rates to be made, and that, cower. quently, the Government was obliged to pay all neces sary expenses. As the Liberties had no prison, it was desirable that the County Prison should receive those who were committed, which, Mr. Ballantyne said, he did not believe would be shove six in a year. The county, however, could have no rates from the Liberties, as that question had already been tried, and decided against it; and all that could be done would be, that a sum should be mutually agreed upon for the county to acceive on account of the expenses intuited by the committal of prisoners to its prison, which would be :annually paid by a check from the Home Office, or the Treasury. The matter, after a good deal of discussion, was re. farted to the Visiting Magistrates. The next question that came under the consideration of the Court was Mr. Briscoe% nation for holding one or more additional Sessions for the trial of prisoners. The CHAIRMAN observed, that there were already eight Sessions in the course of the year, which were in conjunction with the Old Bailey Sessions, and on which they depended ; and unless Mr. Briscoe could secure there being mote Sessions at the Old Bailey, there could not be more at Clerk/swell. Mr. Batscos said, that it was not his wish to call on the Court for his decision ; but as the matter was one of.great importance, he was desirous that it should be -taken into consideration. A more important question there could not be, for all Europe together did.not pro duce as many criminals-as England. He felt that the motion ought to be in more able hands than hi., and he merely considereel himself as being the accidental in. sttument of b:lnging the matter before the Court. There was a question as to whether a new prison should be built for the use of the county, but the present psi. sons, were quite adequate to the service required, except during the long vacation, when, owing to the long in. cereal that took • Owe from Session to Session, doable the usual number of prisoners accu nulated ; and he therefore thought that if an adjourned Session could be held at that period, it would greatly - diminish the in convenience complained of. 'Colonel WOOD said, that the • principal 'objection•to the observations of Mr. Biiscoe was, that no Session could originate with that Court. In the case of the Westminster Sessions it might • hut as the word " County " had not been introduc ed into the Bill; such was not the case in this instance, and. thetefore.all that they could do was to adjourn a Session, and not th'ori ginate one. As to the desirability, of such a measure, there could be no doubt that it was desirable to shorten the duration of time between conseitel and trial as much as possible; hut he hoped that the Act which bad been passed last year (the Assault Actl would cease considerable relief, though he was sorry to see shot many cases had beers that day tried which might have been summarily disposed of. He did not know whetter he ought to allude to what had taken place elsewhere ; but he might observe, that it had appeared last Session to the Police Coismittee of the Home Of Commons Most 'desirable that certain cases should be brought to more speedy trial. - • Mr. Basco& then Withdreie his motion. • .LUNATIC ASYLUM. - Mr. MILLS wished to ask what bad been done relative to the purchase of the ground near Hanwell, which be. longed to Lord Jersey? Mr. Sergeant PILL said, that there were some defects in the title of Lord Jersey. which would not prevent hie (Mr. Sergeant Pell); as a private individual, from purchasing the ground, but which he frit bound. to state in his capacity of trustee and Magistrate of the county. •A communication bad been made by the Committee to the agent of Lord Jersey, to the effect that unless those defects could be got over by the next County Day, -which would be about the 10th of nest January, the , Committee would - feel it necessary to cancel their agree ment, and look ow for another spot •of ground. An answer had been sent to that communication, in which it was stated that there was every probability that the defects alluded to could be got rid of; and he (Mr. 'Sergeant Pell) bad advised, that in reply to that the agent should again be informed that the Committee could not wait beyond next County Day; in which ,state the transaction at present vansined.--Ttie Coen then adjourned. .~ A whale. which had been dead for some days. and which had-begun to putrify, was cast on shore lately on the coast of fhe lledlterninean, about three or four leagues from Perpignan. This imineose hob measured 63 feet to length, and its weight was estimated at 30 tops.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday Yesterday Mr. Rawlins, the acting Overseer of St. Martin's, Parish, brought a 'young Irish girl before Mr. Nintsrutt., for the purpose of having her passed home to bee native country. Mr. Rawlins stated that the girl bad been in service . at a re spectable Solicitor's, and became pregnant by a young man in the service of her master. She had been dismissed from the service, and had applied for relief to the parish, and he now had to request that the Magistrate would pass her to Ireland, under the Act of Parliament which rendered compulsory the passing of any Irish pauper to that country, who bad become chargeable to a parish here. Mr. Mnisouu. asked why Mr. Rawlins did not proceed against the father of the child in the usual way. to compel him to Met in sureties for its maintenance when bout ? Mr. Rawlins said the parish wAs not boupd to go to any =pease in pursuing the reputed father, as the Act required that the pauper should be removed to her native country. Mr. Ithestinet--I shall not remove her. ,It would. be a great hardship indeed to send this girl home to Ireland, there to give birth to a child, without perhaps the means a procuring even common necessities, when the father can be taken here on a war rant, and compelled to feDeef her prope► assistance. Mr. Itawlins—We are not compelled to pursue the father, am: we request that the woman may be passed. Mr. Mustiett.—lt is a novel question ; but my m!nd is made up on the point. I will not send this girl destitute to Ireland when by adopting the usual course here in cases of bastardy, the reputed father can be compelled to make every necessary provi sion.—Mr. Rawlins said he must apply to another Magistrate, u the Art of Parliament was imperative in his favour. Mr. Mtessuu.—l shall be happy if yost will do so, and if you are not then *idolise!' you may apply to the Court of King's Beach. M A IMBOROUG H-STR BET. A female, who mill her name was Ellen Ross, and who said she resided in Moenhem. Emmotreet. Finsbury. applied for a warrant against a tradesman residing in Gerrard-street.

Ile afterwards sent her a pound of tea as a present, but she had discovered that some of the poisonous drug was also mixed with it. She declared that her health had daily•declined, owing to the deleterious drug which bad been ad ministered to be:, and she had emirely lost the me of one hand, and her body was in a state of rapid decay. The person of wham she complained now refused to make bar reparation by marriage, and had borrowed various sums of money of her, and for which she bad arrested him. • Roe declined issuing the warrant on the applloant's unsup ported testimony, and directed het e° send some of ber.friends to consult with him upon the sobjeek • , MAllYseLikeiffON NE. 11. saint/ At THE PRINCE Assaantanoes.—Last night the fol lowing evidence respecting the above robbery was taken before Mr. GIIMTN, at this, Office— JArnes Howe, whs. is footman to his Escelleney's children, ind hes charge of the plate appropriated• to their use, stated, that five or six minutes before three on Tuesday afternoon, he left it safe in a drawer in the under butiet's pantr7 ; be . locked the drawer, and put the key of It in his pocket ; and he'llicked the pantry door, and hung that key up in the porter's hall; where it is usually kept when the area gate is not fastened; at five **clock be went down to pre pare the plate for the chikiren's supper; he found the pantry doot lucked, but the drawer was broken. open. and the plate. consisting of one dozen table spoons, haffn dozen tea, spoons, two dozen forks, one soup ladle, one gravy spoors, and a pair of sugar tongs, were gone.

FIGHT BETWEEN HENDERSON. AND PAULIN. BRISTOL, llsc.. 9. This fight took place near Bristol this day. Nev I was there a greater seasatipa created in this spur ting r than the announcement of the above set to has true sioned. It has furnished the almost excise ire tl,erse of conversation with the Bristol fancy mice its 6nt being broached until the ptesent time. At in'enly hour this morning, every vehicle,- from the Inur.is hand down to the donkey cab (and there were nom, hers of both kinds) was put ,in requisition, and tie loads leading to the scene of action. wete-throngsd with every variety of traveller.

No opposition;'harever, 'was :canals and shorty after one o'clock Parish entered .the riag, attended by Bailey and Redman ; soon slier him Hew .derscia made his appearance, arecompaoied by Nein and old Bob Watson. Both men appeared in 'seethe condition. Hendemon, is the biggestman; and his ill • akin been the favourite. Last sight very heavy bets were made at five to four in his foam. These was not those wanting, however, who held a directly oppa site opinion, and bets to a considerable amount 'woe offered and accepted in favour of Parish. The caw course assembled by this time on the scene of actin beggars all description. It. was decidedly the moe numerous we have ever witnessed in this county ; these could not, moderately speaking, be lees than 4,000 pen sons present, many of whom were gentlemen of the tip. tap fashion; and the turn-out altogether would not haw disgraced a nearer proximity to London. The following is a brief outline cf the fight : Thew were no fewer than 45 sound., although it did rat occupy a greater space of time than an hour. Bey eersoo was the 'first to draw blood in the very Ent round, when he gave his antagonist a terrible teak in the face. All appeared to go remarkably meal* with Henderrin, and of course the tide of popular* nion set in on his side. The betting, after the fifth toads was ten to one in his favour. At about the 35th royal Parish appeared to be rallying—he had evidently gal fresh wind, and he fibbed into his adversary in Olin style ; but in the very (text round he got a trrtibh knock me down argument fromHeoderson.Allthrcog t the fight Henderson had the advautage, •by mete" his antagonist's rushes with wonderful coolness: hei indeed, received but- one danger, us blow all the time, which was in the neck. ,Mere was a good of fighting at the ropes during the affair, and a.eu siderable degree of confusion occasioned in conseqtaia but the•advantage appeared to be pretty equally ha. lanced between both parties. Henderson s tumblei in one round and fell upon: his face, which-some what damaged him, but he soon rallied, and fi•rgot it. lade last found, as Pat lab WM rushing in, in his usual style,bs was met,. %vitt( much good play, by a filth blow !alai lace from Henderson; he .was dreaa.,lly quota and pluniped down forward; this was the only is , gular kni, , ck down blow given by either patty:- His seconds got him on their knees, and is is saidg raptured some wish to come again to the scratch, bat it wasn't in him. They could nut s ally him, and he cif not come to time, and was of course pronourced be We may observe, with the exception of the single bloi we have mentioned, Henderson did not receive nay ir jury, but Patish was most dreadfully mauled.
