Mir Lord ship told him that although his was a very bad case, his life was in no clinger ; hut that he must leave the coon • ty y for the remainder of his life. Charles Laval: a lad of eleven years old, re. ceived sentence for the manslaughter of William Greta, at Wakefield, - by throwing a whittle at him. His Lordship said, that this was a manslaughter of a very gross and aggravated nature. It was com mitted under such circumstances, that if the prisoner had been differently indicted, his life would have been in danger. It was stated on the trial. that be was of a very irritable temper, and it was proper that something should be done to reclaim that sort of temper. The judgment of the Court was, that he be imprisoned 18 Calendar months in the House of Correction at Wake field ; and that in the first and last week of his confine ment he should be privately whipped. His Lordship told him he would have an opportunity of reflecting upon the secoad whipping for one year and a half, and expressed a hope that he would not forget the punish ment, or the crime that caused it, as long as he lived. William Troth. for an assault, with a felonious intent, upon Mary Ann Wells, at Hull, on the 31st of May last, was sentenced to two years imprisonment, with hard labour, at Beverley. His Lordship told him that his crime had been aggravated by his defence, for it was clear that the witness he called had been guilty of perjury in the evidence he gave. Several other prisoners were sentenced. Marta Wall*, a young woman of a very respectable end interesting appearance, was afterwards brought up. She stood at first in the witness boa, but was ordered to go round to the dock. His LORDSHIP then addressed her as follows:—" Yo u were tried at the last Assizes, and convicted of bigamy. It appeared that your first marriage took place on the 80th of August, 1822, at Beverley, by licence. You were then an infant under 21, and there was no consent of parent, guardian, or any person authorized to give consent to the marriage. Your second marriage was by bens, upon the 15th of February, 1827, when your first husband was alive. At your trial your counsel objected that your first marriage, being contracted when under age without consent, was void. The answer was, that the provisions in the Marriage Act of George If. rendering consent of parents or guardians necessary, had been rendered inoperative by the Act of the 3d George IV., which received the Royal assent on the 22d of July, 1812, and that the provisions of the new Act did not come into force until the first day of September, the day after your marriage, which hav ing been celetrated in the intirval between the 22d of July and the Ist of September, was valid. The point was new, and 1 therefore reserved it for the considera cion of all the Judged, to whom it has been submitted. - - They are unanimously of opinion that the marriage was legal. It becomes therefore my duty to pass the judg ment of the law upon you; but as it appeared you really believed your first marriage was void, which would have been the case had it been celebrated two days later, or even if it were under similar circumstances now ce. lebrated, your sentence will not be heavy. It is that you be coofined in the Castle of York for one fortnight." John Shaclietom was tried upon an indictment charg ing him with uttering, on the 29th of June last, a forged note upon the Craven bank, knowing the same to be forged. It appeared by the evidence of Moore Warbrick, a tailor, at Langfield, who also sold shoes, that the pri soner came into his shop, and bought a pair of thil drett's shoes for 2s. 10d. and offered the note in pay ment. As the prisoner had no children, Warbrlck's suspicii ns were aroused, and he sent the note to a neigh bour, who gave it as his opinion that it was forged, which. afterwards proved to be the rise. A constable was sent for, and the prisoner was given in charge. He gave two false accounts of the manner in which he got the note, but at last told the constable, who promised to give bins his diluter if he spoke the truth, that he te emed it from his brother. The prisoner bad no other forged notes or false coin about him, and there was no .evidence that be had ever uttered other forged :totes. Mr. Baron Huht.oce thought the prosecutor had failed in proving the guilty knowledge, and directed an acquittal. Cram Sura.—(Before Mr. Junks %TIM%) SIACHIN U. HSLDWORTN. This was an action to recover damages for the loss of services suffered by the plaintiff, from the seducticn of her daughter. Mr. BROUGHAM said, that the Jury, in estimating the damages, would take into their consideration the breath of the domestic comfort, the outrage on the peace, and the stain on the reputation of a family, in consequence of she defendant's conduct. The plaintiff was the a idow of a substantial yeoman in the West Riding, and her daughter, who was unmarried, lived with bee. She was possessed of great personal charms, and before her acquaintance with the defendant her character was un blemished. The defendant was of the same rank with isetself, but in better circumstances. He was a wool stapler, about 28 years of age, and came to Aliss Ma chin, who was 25, under the assuped guise of a suitor, for he made her frequent offers of marriage through her parert, that all doubts of his honour might be lulled. He seen went so far as to give a written promise, and shortly afterwards accomplished hi: base design; after which, all mention of marriage ceased, and no attempt was made to make her any rep station. The plaintiff, how ever unwillingly, was forced to put her daughter in the box, and to make her the historian of her own misery and disgrace. It might be said that the written promise' of marriage, as it would form the subject of another action, could not be insisted on ; but he should use it to thew the means by which the defendant was enabled to accomplish his purpose. Eliv.abeth Machin, examined by Mr. ALDFRSON.— Was 24 in July last. She always lived with her mo. ther, who lived on her means. Her father was a butcher. She was entitled on her mother's death to £Boi. They live in Halifax. The defendant is `2B; he is in good cis cumstances, and keeps two hunting horses. CI became acquainted with me in June, l 815; he csase to any mother's house, and asked to be allowed co pay his add: ewes to me; he is a good-looking man; I allowed hi. addre.ses by consent of my modser; he paid me visits, and I occasionally walked out with him. I was willing to marry him, and my mother was willing I shoutd. He gave me a written promise of marriage; my mother-saw it. He continued his visits . afterwards with my mother's approbation. I after that .consented to gratify his passion. I had a child by On the 4th of November last I walked out with him, when he used me very ill. I was taken ill when I tame home, and was brought to bed on the Tuesday following, two days afterwards. When I found myself with child, I pressed blia to 'marry me, and he renewed his promise.. boring his courtship, be deposited with me, on one occasion, between two and three thousand pounds, which I returned to him. Mt. WILLIAM/ cross-examined the witness, and proved that her sister, who was married, was delivered of a ehild,within six months after her marriage. Mr. WILLIAMS addressed the Jury in mitigation, dwelling forcibly on this circumstance, which, he con. tended, called upon the plaintiff to use greater vigilance with respect to this daughter, and took away from her all claim of damages. The Jury gave a verdict for 300 i. CROYDON, Avow 7. Mr. Judie:l34w.= sat in the Criminal Court at nine this morning. John Bodkin and Jan Xlrt wets tried for stealing in the dwelling-house of Mr. Robert Gibson, of Streat ham, a quantity of plate of considerable value, The facts of the case, which were fully substantiated by several witnesses, were simply these: on the 12th of June last, the prisoners drove op in a cart to Mr. Gib son's house, about eleven in the morning; King was seen entering it with a basket, which he brought out full, and attempted to get into the cast: but it was too heavy, and fell to the ground, and a maidservant fol lowing them, they made off in the curt, when an active pursuit took place, and both prisoners were shortly after taken into custody. Both prisoners were found Guilts. Sentence of demh was recorded. These are two of the gang of London burglars, whose operations at Croydon and its vicinity, some time back, excited so much alarm. 0 Jewel Brown was tried for a similar offence, in the dwelliag•house of Mr. George Wuolf& at Clapham. The prisoner was very respectably dressed in black. He was, it appeared. in the service of the Sew. Mr. White bead, Mr. Woolffs soa•in-law, and its July last he ab sconded, taking with him a quantity of the plate which had been left in his charge. Stowell, the blarylebone officer, apprehended the prisoner at his lodgings, and on taking him to the watch house, he found a wup•ladle hanging to his drawers, and the remainder of the plate was found concealed in other parts of his dress. The pi isener, when called on for his defence, acknow ledged that he bad taken the plate, as he was on the morning of the occurrence mach intoxicated, sad knew not what he was doing. • The Jury iremediately found him Gadlty.—Judgment of death recorded. Thomas 13491i55, for a si nilar offence, committed in the dvrelling-house of Mr. EJwud Kemble, of Camber well, was fund Guilty. THE GIRAFFE-(CAMELEOPARD.) A Giraffe, alive, says a letter from Florence, is a thing very rare in Europe; but it must not be said that there has not been one seen since thf Rnman conquests. In 1459, Pope Pius If. having assembled at. Florence several Princes and Lords of Italy,amongst whom was John Galeas Visconti, Count of Pavia, to treat concern ing a league against the Tarks, a description of spec. tacle was presented before them which only took place upon grand occasions. They closed all the avenues of the square, then called the Nignoria, now that of the Grand Duke, and turned loose their wild animals, amongst which was a Giraffe. A contemporary poet has left ss the description of the scene. The 11th of Novembt:r, 1487, a Giraffe was presented to Lorenzo de Medici, by the Sultan of Cairo. his mentioned, in two ancient manuscripts preseree4 in the fklaglia heeehian Library; the translation of one of theft if.IN With it tame an Ambassador, who held the office of Master of the Ceremonies lit the Sultan's Court ; and with &is Giraffe .was a Lion sad :WM! Goats and Skeep,of a sise ins& greater than ours, The Giraffe was 13 feet and a half bigh, its lout vas like that of an ow, and it was a eery handsome animal. A Turk governed it with a rein. It was carried through various parts of Tuscany, and eahibited in serretal cost vents. Lorenzo de Medici had it placed in the stables of the Pope, in the street Delia Scala. In the winter they heaped dung about it, to protect it from the cold, and they often lighted fires near it. It ate everything, and poked its head, whenever it tonic!. into the baskets of the peasants. It would take an apple from the hands of a child, it was to mild and gentle, and all the children gave something to it. The Ambassador and his people remained some months in Florence, where one of them died. The city made presents to this Ambassador. Afterwards the Giraffe died, on Saturday,l the of January, 1488. It was flayed in order to preserve the skin. Its loss grieved every body, because it was a fine atfmat." It was not until the year 1750 that the Florentines began the year on the ht of Jan. instead of the 25th of March. Thus the Giraffe sent- to Lorenzo de Medici only lived thirteen months and twenty-two days after its arrival at Florence.

The wife, to enable her to cope with the giant, seised e bottle, with which she strut him on the forehead ; in return for this mark of loving kindnen, he abused her so unnwrcifully, that the interference of the neighbours were necessary to protect her life. A party of police were ac cordingly sent for, but when they saw the unwieldy form, and determined manner of the giant (who declared he would kiU the first man that offered to lay a hand on him), a reinforce ment of police was sent for, who, with the assistants of some neighbours, soon captured their blustering opponent. After they bad succeeded in dragging this giant a few paces from his den, be fairly took the dumps, and would proceed no further. A porter's barrow was accordingly procured, and the hitherto sacred' person of this " wonderful" being was tied down neck and heels, and in that state burled to the police ice.

He died in the Infirmary on Monday last, in consequence of a kick in the groin which he received from a jackass. He evinced great voracity during his illness; and on the morning of the last day of his life he made repeated attempts to tear a boy who lay in the next bed to him. A medical consultation was held on the body, which excited considerable interest. The head was very small, and of a peculiar configuration. The cranium was un usually thick, and the brain, of course, limited in its dimensions. Some striking peculiarities were also ob served in the intestines.

Before her frknds left her, one of them took the number of the chariot. A short time after she got into it the defendant allowed a strange man to get in also.-- This me began to pull her about ; bat she resisted his efforts as well as she was able, and called to the coachman to stop. The chariot soon after drew up, and she found that the defendant, in. stead of driving her to Old Brampton, had driven to one of the lonely lanes that sunound Kensiagton. Here the pros/nutria described the prisoner's conduct towards her. She felt alarmed, and offered to leave her shawl in the prisoner's keeping as a security for the 1%. he demanded for his fare. She swore distinctly as to the identity of the prisoner, and his attempt upon her person. The prisoner called as a witness another coachman, who attempted to prove an rdiei, but his evidence went for nothing, and hitusuou. held the prisoner to ball, himself in 401. and two sureties in 201. each, to answer the charge at the S..ssiosts.

The girls left the house on Sunday morning, for the purpose of accompanying some of their friends on a water excut sion to Richmond. Oa their return home, they found that some villains had mitered the house, and carried off every thing that was portable, consisting chiefly of plate, tea-caddies, work-boxes, a great number of valuable bo ks, some valuable chimney ornaments, and several handsome portraits, and a quantity of wearing apparel. Prior to the robbers leaving the house, it seems, they regaled themselves with the contents of the pantry, and nearly emptied a cask of home.brewed ale. EscaPa rams Pa Isom.— Bet risen one and two o'clock yesterday, three prisoners confined in our county gaol on different charges of felony, effected their escape in the following manner :—A ladder which had beensio use in the process of whitewashing the interior of the prison had been Left in the upper story, and whilst the work-people were at dinner, the prisoners in that clan who were locked in the day-room, on the ground floor, burst the lock from the door, and going up stairs, w aned one of the ladders and some of the sheets from the sleeping cells, by which meansthey contrived to surnsout the chevatts de friar, and make their way into the outer yard. When thus far, the ladder which they carried with them afforded a ready method of scaling the bow. Jary wall, 'and - by tying the sheets together, they easily let themselves down on the outside. The escape was instantly discovered, and pursuit immediately made by the officers of the prison, who at first had the fel lows in sight. They went over the lock by the bridge, and made off between the basin and the river, which latter, two of them cootived to cross by means of a boat which was moored to the bank, and thus evaded their pursuers. The third, for the me 'sent, concealed himself is a withey bed, where be was retaken in two hours afterwards. The two 'who are still at large, again crossed the river at she Lower Parting, and have not since been heard of; but as -active -search is now making for them, it is hoped they will. soon be returned to their old toasters. A fourth prisoner bad reached the top of the boundary wall, bat was discovered just in time -to prevent his descent. It will hardly be believed, that though several persons saw the felons Tannins away, and heard tbso alarm given by the officers is pursuit, yet not at Rumpled to give the least assistance in stopping their progress. One of these idle spectators is represented as having been one of very respectable appearance.— Glocester Jaffna. TUREATZNING LitzTans.—The Court of Assize (Paris) was occupied on Saturday with a trial of a case which in same points resembled . that of the assassins of the banker Joseph. On the 80th of April the Sitar Amy Vidal, a mosey broker of the Palais Royal, received a letter written in Italian and signed Capo, in which be was threatened with the same late as that of the money broker Joseph, if he did not, on the next day, deposit the_sum of 800 francs under a stone bench in the garden opposite his shop. Having informed the police of the circumstance, be deposited a small bag filled with pieces of tin in the spot pointed out, and two pawns were set to watch it. About six o'clock in the evening. a young man came and sat on the bench. He had in his hand a book, which he frequently let fills and in stooping to take it up he looked towtrds the place where the bag was, and at one time seemed as if about to take it. The persons on the watch were pre- pared to seize him, but be got up and walked off with out having touched it. Soon after another person came, and sat on the same bench. It was remarked that be frequently stooped as if to ascertain what was under the sear. After having looked round hins,be put his foot back under the seat, and got the bag oat, and in a few minutes placed it under his arm, and was about to move off with it, when he was taken into custody. On his examina tion he gave his name Stephan, a native of Piedmont. He is about 96 years of age, and of good person and address. On the trial he strongly denied having written the letter, or even having ever had pOssebsion of the bag ; and persisted in saying that the whole story was invented by the parties who arrested him. Sumesitni lathy was said to exist between the letter sent to Vidal and the prisoner's handwriting. He was found Guilty, and condemned to five years of bard labour. MARRIED.
