When a nod from friend to friend— Faumetton Paean. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case, which was an appeal from the decision of the present Master of the Rolls, when Vice-Chancellor. The case has been pending for many years, and has been several times before Lord Eldon. The facts were shortly these —ln the year 1754, an individual of the name of Brown, with his wife, mortgaged a moiety of some premises of which they were in possession, for 3001., to a Mr. Sewell, and subsequently they mortgaged the other moiety for 4001. to Mr. Maseres. This property eventually came into the possession of Mr. Sewell Mansell, who, in 1781, conveyed it to a Mr. Jenkins, who was a solicitor, in trust for the payment of his creditors, and it appeared that Mr. Jenkins had paid the interest of the mortgages to the year 1802, when he died. His representatives were then anxious to pay off the mortgages, who, how ever, refused to accept the money, on the ground that the equity of redemption did not exist in them. This bill was consequently filed to compel them to accept the prin cipal and interest, and proceedings commenced to eject the mortgagees, who were in possession of the premises. The Lord Chancellor this morning expressed his decided opinion that the deed of 1781 did not convey to Mr. Jenkins the equity of redemption, and that consequently that right could not descend to his heirs. His Lordship, therefore, confirmed the decree of Sir John Leach. In reply to a remark of the SOLICITOR-GENERAL, the Court said that it imagined an injunction to restrain the parties from proceeding with the ejectment would follow as a matter of course, but it would take time to consider that point, and mention it to-morrow morning. The V t cE-Cii A x c EL Loa gave judgment in these bank rupt causes, which came before the Court on exceptions to the Master's report. The bankrupts were interested in some estates, and it was referred to the Master to ascer tain and report what interest each person possessed. The Master had made his report, which report his Honour this morning ordered to be confirmed. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORFOLK CIRCUIT—BURT ST. EDMUND'S, Au. 6. This afternoon Mr. Baron GARROW arrived at this an cient borough, where he was joined in the course of the evening by M r.i Justice PARKE, who arrived from Cam bridge.. The calendar contains 32 persons for trial, and, with a few exceptions, the prisoners were all charged with offences to which the law annexes the penalty of death. The following is a summary statement, descrip tive of the various offences with which the prisoners for trial severally stand charged, viz.—Accessaries after the fact of murder, two ; horse-stealing, two ; sheep-stealing, one ; pig-stealing, three ; ass-stealing, one ; burglary, five ; house-breaking, seven ; stealing from the person, two ; stealing in dwelling-houses, four ; cutting and maim ing with intent to kill, two ; embezzlement, one ; lar cenies, two ; total, thirty-two. Of the above number twenty-two are in custody of Mr. Orridge, and ten in that of Mr. Johnson, of Ipswich. It appears from accounts which have recently reached Bury, that it remains doubtful whether the trial of Vieth; will take place at this Assizes, owing to the debilitated state of Green, his unfortunate victim. The prisoner still manifests an uncommon degree of unconcern re specting his fate ; and if he is conscious of his perilous situation, he conceals his emotions from the most rigid observer. The case of the females charged with being accessories to the murder of Jonas Ansell, excites a great degree of interest, owing to a recent occurrence— we mean the execution of Partridge at the last Assizes, for the murder of George Ansell, who before his death confessed the murder of his brother. One of the pri soners appears to have been living on intimate terms with Partridge, who, in his last hours, made discoveries which appeared to involve her in his guilt. There are a great number of causes set down for trial, AO that, unless some compromises take place, the Judges will be engaged here several days. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK, Avaun S. James Pilling (59), charged with pawing — forged sank of England 51. notes, and against whom there were live indictments, pleaded guilty. Mr. Justice LITTLLDALE-I can only say that you will receive exactly the same punishment as if you were found guilty by the Jury ; you are deceiving yourself if you persist in pleading guilty. Prisoner- -Yes. is a serious charge, and you are liable to be hanged. Prisoner—Well, and mercy on me. Jr DG a—Do you still plead guilty ? Prisoner—l wish to speak thi truth as near as I can. JUDGE—I can only say as I have said before, that you will not be more leniently dealt with. Pleading not guilty to an indictment is not telling a falsehood in the Miro of Gon—it is not taking an oath or committing irrjury—it is only denying the charge, which must be proved' by the prosecutor. Prisatter—l mast plead guilty, my Lord. t iltts i a—tonsider, priewier ; I will allow you time • deration. Prisoner (after a few minutes' pause)—l am guilty, my Lord, and have mercy on me. JUDGE—Then yon are determined to plead guilty ? Prisoner—Yes, my Lord. JUDGE —Very well. The prisoner was then removed from the bar. CHELMSFORD. Amon 6. Before Mr. Justice Pow. THE WITHAM FIRES. Edward Potto, aged 19, was charged with feloniously setting fire to an out-house belonging to Mr. Grim wood, of Witham. This case excited most intense interest, and the Court was crowded to excess. The prisoner is a mild, good looking young man, and respectably connected. There were three other indictments for similar offences against him.—Mr. JESSOIi appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. CLARKSON and Mt. DOWLING for the defence. It appeared that, in consequence of the alarming num ber of fires which had taken place in Witham, the inha bitants established a watch among themselves. On the night of the 19th of February, about a quarter before nine o'clock, flames were seen to issue from the inside of Mr. Grimwood's out-house. Mr. Saunders and Mr. Philbrick, who were on watch, instantly hurried there, and extinguished the fames, which had not then gained an ascendancy. It was found that part of the thatch had been taken inside, and set fire to ; some linen tinder was lying about, and there were footmarks of a person having hastily made his escape across a field on to Witham Bridge. About nine o'clock the prisoner was seen coining from the bridge, iii?d moon after he stopped and spoke to a chemist's apprentice in the town, and told him that somebody had been setting fire to Grimwood's hovel, and that he saw the flames from the bridge. The witnesses were mostly of opinion that from the situation of the hovel, the flames could not have been seen from the bridge. The prisoner was apprehended on suspicion, and shortly after made the following extraordinary statement, which he voluntarily subscribed after it had been taken down in the presence of a Magistrate. Edward Potto, late of Witham, tailor saith that pre viously to the sth of November, 1828, I had formed an acquaintance with Benjamin Curtis, of Witham, la bourer; Will True, the younger, labourer; John *Clod, and Joseph Bull, labourers ; and about a week before the sth of November we all agreed to have a good bonfire, and proposed to set fire to Mr. Catchpole's hay and rye-stacks, and on the night of the sth November we met at the stacks about seven o'clock ; True cartled a piece of dry bell-bine, and I carried two matches ; young Bull carried some tinder, and he struck a light with a stone and half a steel; it was put into paper, and with the bell-bine was put into the back part of the stack by M'Clod. It was five minutes before the fire made any thing like progress to alarm any one. We all then disappeared and separated, but afterwards met again at the fire. On going from Mr. Catchpole's, I went up to the engine -house, where John Newstead, Mr. Perry's man, was getting out the engine. He had a lanthorn, an d I asked him to let ma have a light, and I lighted a piece of bell bine which was then in my hand, and which must have been seen by New stead, but he said nothing to me. I then went across the high road from the engine -house into the lane, by the side of Mr. Du Cane's premises, which leads to Mr. Crump'e farm, where True, Curtis, Bull, and M'Clod were all waiting for me by appointment. When I ar rived, we all went down together to Mr. Crump's wheat stack, where M'Clod took the light from me, and set fire to the stack with a match which I gave him from my pocket, and as soon as the fire took hold we all went away together, but separated when we got into a field lead ing to Little Braxatead. Bull said he had been look ing out to see if any one was watching, but it was all right. The next fire we occasioned was at Mr. Lee's shed at Witham, and I think it was two months after wards, and on a Monday night. Two days previous to this myself, Curtis, Bull, and True, met in Mr. Toole's meadow, to talk over and plan another bonfire, no other reason or cause being talked of as to the mischief, nor had Mr. Lee done any thing to offend us to my knowledge. We met about half-past five o'clock on this Monday night. M'Clod carried a piece of tinder, I placed it on paper, and then struck a light, but it went out, and M'Clod then tried and succeeded. The steel used on this occasion was one which I took with me from Mr. Abbott, my master; it was lying about the house, and I think it was not missed afterwards. Part of the dry thatch was pulled out, and the light tinder placed in the centre of it. We got some way across the field of Mr. Humphreys before it broke out, so as to alarm the neighbourhood--we then separated. I went back to the fire, but did not see the other three per sons again that night. When we turned our backs upon this fire, *Clod said, in the hea r i ng o f a ll four, I will throw his stone and steel away f or f ear it should be found upon us : for if they are, we shall be found out ; this spot was not above half a dozen rods from the place where the fire was. After this fire at Mr. Lee's myself, M'Clod, and True, agreed to set fire to Mr. Shoobridge's oat-stack ; no cause being given or talked of as to Mr. Shoo bridge being thus selected. We also met on a Mon day night to do this about the same time, half-past eight. I carried some tinder with me. True struck a :light upon the back of a pen-knife. We pulled out part of the stuff of the stack, and made a hole about the size of a hat, in which the fire was deposited, and then ran away, and had got twenty rods or more before I could see it. We then separated, and I saw no more of M'Clod or True that night. The last attempt which I had to do with setting fire to a place, was at Mr. Grimwood's hovel, and only Wm. True and myself were present. We had no motive in doing this, no grudge, no ill-will subsisted between us and him, to my knowledge. We met near Mr. Grimwood's house, and put the fire into the hovel, but it was presently extinguished by Mr. Grimwood's men and others. This same hovel was afterwards set fire to by some person wholly unknown to me, and burnt to the ground. I have not been guilty of any other offences of wilfully setting fire to premises than as above stated, no r do I know of any other person that has. (SPed) EDWARD POTTO. At a subsequent examination the prisoner admitted that the charges above made against True, Bull, M'Clod, and Curtis, were false, and that his alone was the hand which caused the several fires. The prisoner assigned as a reason for falsely accusing these young men, that he hoped thereby to gain his liberty. Several surgeons and persons who had long known the prisoner, said, that in their opinion he was perfectly sane. For the defence, Drs. Pritchard and Curtis, and seve ral surgeons, were called, who said they considered the prisoner to be labouring under the species of madness called monomania, and that the disease, in him, displayed itself in a wanton desire to destroy buildings. After a trial of nine hours length, Mr. Justice PARK summed up, and the jury retired:for an. hour, and .then rotated a verdict of Not Guilty generally, stating that they did not think the charge was hilly proved. The other indictments were fixed for the next morn ing, and Mr. JESSOP gave notice that be should chal lenge'every one of the present jurors. . The verdict excited considerable astonishment. On Friday morning the prisoner was again brought up, but an arrangement having previously taken place among Counsel, be was allowed to plead guilty to a charge of sending a letter threatening to set fire to Mr. Hutley's house, and the other charges were respited till the next Assize, with an understanding that they would be suffered to die away. Mr. Justice PARK E, after an impressive address, in the course of which he expressed his astonishment at the verdict of the previous day, sentenced the prisoner to transportation for life.

The sports for this and the following day are of a investor de scripdoo, and should the weather continue as favourable as it was yesterday there can be no doubt of their going of with equal if not greater eclat. Among the other attractions of the ground, we observed a num ber of games of various descsiptioos, calculated to entrap the tin. wary, and not likely to improve the morality of the poorer classes of the community—among these were noticed the Roulette sad Rouge et Noir tables at Ow Doncaster Club boom, and a multitude of similar booths.
