COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Dee. a. Suing, after Michaelmas Term ' before Mr. Justice Ilitaamma and a Commoa Jury. . PHILLIPS P. CSLITCHLCIN Although this case was of the class which usually attracts a numerous auditory, yet the Court on tbis occasion was not particularly crowded at the com mencement of the proceedings, and only a few females were in the gallery; but before the cease had ad vanced far, every part of the emu was filled. Mr. Sergeant WILD, who appeared for the defend ant, required that all the witnesses should retire. Mr. Toatunson opened the pleadings; he stated that Susan Phillips was the plaintiff, and Wm. Crutchley the defendant. It was an action brought by the plain. tiff, to recover compensation in damages for thelinjury and disappointment she bad experienced in consequence of a breach of promise of marriage on the part of the defendant. The damages were laid at 1,0001. The defendant pleaded the general issue. Mr. Sergeant TAMP addressed the Court on behalf of the plaintiff, who is the daughter of a respectable tradesman, residing in Camberwell-road, Kennington, and defendant a builder, residing in Camden Town.— The plaintiff was on a visit to a Mrs. Woods, where Mr. Crutchley was in the habit of visiting, and where he first commenced paying his addresses to the plaintiff, whose age is 23, while Mr. Crutchley is 45; so th •t it could not be said he was not sufficiently old to know what he was doing when he made a formal proposal to Miss Phillips, in the presence of Mrs. Woods, and ac tually fixed the church at Hillingdon, in Kent, to be the one where, in a few weeks, he hoped to be married to her. This was done in the month of May, and pa the Gth of June he was married at a church in Suffolk to a Miss Fanny Moore. The Learned Sergeant then proceeded to comment in no very measured terms on the disgraceful and wanton conduct of the defendant, and called upon the Jury to award heavy damages, thereby showing the opinion they entertained of a person acting in the manner the defen dant in this case had drone. He then proceeded to call witnesses to substantiate his case. Anne Woods examined by Mr. Tostrattsotr— Is the wife of John Wood.; she resides in Camden Town; Miss Phillips was on a visit to her in October last; Mr. Crutcbley frequently visited witness's husband; does not know whether Mr. Crutchley had previously known Miss Phillips ; did m t observe Mr. Crutchley pay more than ordinary attention to Miss Phillips; Miss Phillips's visit was not more than a fortnight; did tell Mr. Crutchley that the plaintiff had no fortune; i.e said that " his work was done." , Anne Phillips, examined by Mr. Sergeant TADDY... Is mother to the plaintiff; remembers her being on a visit to the last witness; she returned home in Nov. The defendant called in a few days after; he staid but a short time; he frequently repeated his visits after wards; never knew any thing of him until his first visit. The plaintiff had informed her of M,r Crutchley's attentions to her; frequently heard the defendant call her daughter " Mrs. W. C.;" has often heard Mr. C. express his intentions to marry the plaintiff. On the' 20th of February last her house was broken open, and some plate and part of the wedding clothes were stolen, upon which Mr. C. asked if they could be re placed in ten days? About, that time one of witness's servants was about to leave, and the defendant observed that she would do for him when he was married ; upon which the witness observed, " No, Crutchley, she will not do for you, she is not a sufficiently good cook, and you know you are fond of good living'—(Much laugh-- ter.) At the last visit the defendant said to her daugh ter, " GOD bless you, good night, I shall take you home in a few weeks."—(Great laughter.) Cross-tiamined by Mr. Sergeant Wilma—Her daughter bad received about four letters from the de- fendant ; the last three or four visits the plaintiff was affected to tears in consequence of some remarks made by Mr. C. respecting his sister ; does not know that he had complained to any person that any of her family bad requited him to marry sooner than be wished; witness certainly did remark to Mr. C. that his having long had an. establishment, she saw nothing to wait for; did of course read the letters which her daughter received from the defendant; her daughter had a suitor before the defendant. He bad been dead about 18 months. It was Captain Bull. He never en tered witness's door. He bad not sufficient property to maintain the plaintiff. Sarah Maria Phillips, examined by Mr. Sergeant TADDY—Is sister to the plaintiff. First saw the 'de fendant at her mother's in November twelvemonth.. He made frequent visits afterwards. He always dined with our family on a Sunday. Has heard Mr. Crutchley repeatedly say he would marry the plaintiff, and gave her the ring now produced, and requested her to wear it constantly, observing, that he hoped the next ring he should present her with would be a wedding ring. Mr. C. repeatedly fixed the early part of July for the mar riage with the plaintiff. Miss Moore, the sister of the present Mrs. Crutchley, proved the marriage of the defendant with that Lady. Cross-examined—Her sister had not a shilling. Two letters from the defendant were put in and read. Both spoke of the plaintiff in strong terms of aB ction, and though written about tho time of the separation, contained expressions of deep regret that they should be divided, and declared the delendanes wish, that if they met again they might meet as friends. The letters also spoke of the defendant's ceasing to visit her as if he had done so in consequence of the pain which his visit seemed to give her, and from no other CAUS4h. 'lbis was the plaintiff ' s case. Mr. Sergeant WILIM with whom was Mr. A NDRIBWS, addressed the Jury for the defendant. Nothing, he said, k was more probable than that at first sight a man might be much struck by a female, and he might behave with great attention towards her for some time, and might perhaps, speak of marriage to her; but during the course f his attentions to her he might discover some thing in her character, not directly wrong or improper, but a certain something that convinced him be could not be happy with her if he married her. Was a man, under thOsicireurnstances, he asked, bound to marry her, knowing that by so doing, he should render him- self and her miserable for life? Where was the being who would say that a man, having this conviction on his mind, was compelled to take a woman to the altar, because be had once paid her particular attention ? The defendant admitted that be had once loved the plaintiff most earnestly. and had intended to make her his wife ; but as he became better acquainted with her charac'er, he discovered in her certain traits which convinced him that he could not be happy with her, and he had declared this to her in an open manly manner ; and having done so, what reason had the plaintiff now to complain ? She had sustained no less; for if the marriage presented no prospect of happi ness to either, what damage bad been sustained from its not having been carried tato effect. Separately, they formed respectable members of society ; but married, it might be different; and if no happiness arose from the union, the woman would be consigned to a wretched home, and the man would be driven Irons hisown house, —he seeking amusement abroad, and she conducting ' ersvlf in a rnamier at home which might make it an even chance that she did not again appear in a Court er Jnitice. My. Janice lionnovost, in sansmitig up, said. he was of opinion that there wai ~ems of a general pro. mite of marriage, and the only question therefore for the jury would be as to the amount of damages.— Thete was no question but that they had for some time conducted themselves as persons about to be married ; and if misconduct on her part was stated as a lesson for breaking . off the match, that-should have been proved in evidence by the defendant. It was also clear, that the parents could not have been guilty of any trick or device to catch the defendant, and get him to marry the daughter, for it appeared that they first became acqoainted at the house of a Mr. Woods. Under these circumstances, a verdict must pass for the plaintiff, but the Jury would recollect that they were not io give vindictive damages, but only such as they should consider were a fair compensation for the loss she had sustained. The Jury immediately found for the plaintiff—Di mages 2001. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, Dr.c. 8. OLD COURT. • Before Mr. SCTIOSCIt ALUM. William Quia, aged 17. was indicted for stealing in the dwelling-house of the Rev. George Greig, Vincent. square, Westminster, a clock, value 101. his property. Tire prisoner was one of a gang who broke into the prosecutor% house on the 16th August. Two of them have been taken (Barnett and Morpeth), tried, and capi tally convicted, at farmer Sessions. The same evidence was adduced against this prisoner as in the former cases; but - to prove his identity, a little boy was called, who had only seen him tor a moment when in company with Barnett, who had the clock in his possession. The other witnesses could not speak to the pet son.—Under these circumstances the Judge di rected an acquittal. Wiilia,' Davies was indicted for the wilful murder of Witlism Clark. Willi4m Baldy, a tripeman, stated, that about four o'clock in the afternoon of the 3d of November he was passing through Cow-cross; he saw the prisoner push the deceased out.of his house on to the pavement ; the deceased fell on his buck; when he got up, he turned , as if with, the intention of forcing his way into the psi soner% house, when the latter seized him with both his hand, and pushed him down into the middle of the toad; he there remained quite insensible until witness pocked him up; he was bleeding profusely from his right ear. Witness said to the prisoner, " Good GOD you have killed the man." Prisoner replied, rr 1 don't care—let him die and be d—d." Witness re quested prisoner would send for a Doctor, but be re fused, and again said, " Let him die and be d—d, he deserves it al l - e. in the mean time some persons took the deceased to St. Bartholomew's Hospital. William Elliott confirmed the above evidence ; he did not consider the prisoner used more violence than was necessary to prevent the deceased from again entering his shop ; the deceased was intoxicated. Gtiffith Davies, a linen•draper, stated, that he was in the prisoner's shop on the day in question ; the deceased came in and was very noisy ; the prisonef remonstrated with him, on which he said, " He would be d—d but he would make as much noise as he liked." He then attempted to strike the prisoner with a stick, when prisoner wrenched it from him, and pushed him out into the passage, and threw the stick after him; deceased dared, prisoner to come out, and at length he did so ; witness did not see what passed afterwards. • Mr. Chao. Caswell, house surgeon at St. Bartholo mew's Hospital, stated, that he examined the deceased when he was brought there; he found that his skull was fractured, and that be had sustained other consi derab.e injuries; he died on the Friday following. A number of other witnesses were examined, some of whom described the posh, given by the prisoner to the deceased as a very violent one, while others described it as very gentle. Excepting as to this point, they all gave nearly the same account of the transaction. Mr. ADOLPHUS raised an objection that the deceased had not been identified as the person named in the indictment. The RICORDER rt called each of the witnesses, bat none of them could prove the name or identity of the deceased. The objection was held to be fatal, and the prisoner' wait imnsequent I y acquitted. Ass Inquest was holden on Saturday evening at the Swap Public-house, Mansel-stree, Goodman's Fields, beforeJ. W. UNwIN, Esq. on the body of Ante Peters an aged East Indian female. On the preceding day the deemed, who had been an old servant in the family of Mr. Openbeim, came to visit them. In die course of the Afternoon Miss Openheim, a young Lady of about 18 years of age, in a playful mood, took her by the arms and raised her to such a height that her head came, with some violence, in contact with the ceiling. She imme diately becime insensible, and though medical aid was procured, expired. The Jury adjourned in order to have the bead opened. Saturday sennight a person who had been in Liver -pool about ten days, decamped from the White Bear Inn. Dale -street, after, as is supposed, he had broken open a desk, and taken therefrom money to the amount of 201. He bad stated that he was on his war to Ame rica; but it was ascertained that he,.left Liverpool in the Earns coach, for London. - . Saturday morning. at 7 o'clock a dreadful accident happened at Kew Palace. For, some months an im mense number of men have been engaged in regularly pulling down the palace, and cleansing and clearing away the materials; and on Saturday morning, when . there were about 30 men in the immediate neighbour hood of the works, the walls suddenly fell, and buried in the ruins many of the men. Efforts were not only made to extricate those buried in the ruins, but to as certain the number missing. Several were speedily extricated, some not very seriously wounded, while others afford no hopes of eventual recovery. Carts were promptly obtained to convey them to places where they might get surgical assistance, to S:. George's Hospital, and the fate of one man in particular excited a good deal of commiseration. His thighs were broken, his head and face mach bruised and cut, but it was thought his life might be preserved.— He was attended by his wife, who had been quickly-drawn to the scene of ruin ; And he was carefully laid in a cart to be forwarded to St. George's asap's'''. On arriving at Hammersmith iecree,sed -pains came on; he was evidently in great golly ; he violently struggled, raised himself from his position in spite of efforts to keep him down, and after thus frantically existing himself for some time, he fell back and expired. The poor woman's conduct after wards was of the moat agonizing descriptions SURREY SESSIONS, Dec. S. Thomas Bideley, a native of the sister country, stood indicted for assaulting Ma. y Maria Cooper, with intent to violate tier person. on the 28th of October last. • The pitiseentrit staled, that on the evening men. dotted in the itidictmento she was returning homeiiimii di iing with some frie4s in Arendel-streq, in the Strand, and on arriving near the shop of Alderman Waithman she inquired of the difesedant the nearest way' to Whitech.rpel, the place where she resided. The die Pendant offered to put her in the right road, Witness walked by his side until she arrived in a dark street in Biackfriars-road. Suspecting that the defendant was leading her astray, she questioned him, when he mina • menced a violent attack upon her. (Here vritneu mi nutely detailed the defendant's conduct.) She cried out "Mulder," and two persons came to her assistance. —Storey stated, that he was a green-grocer, residing • in Church -street, Blackfriars.road. On the night in question he heard the cries of a female from the back of his house ; he and his wife went to the spot, arid found the protecutrix and the defendant strnggling on the ground. He remonstrated with the defendant, and• ultimately gave him in charge of the watchman, and rendered every assistance to the prosecutrix : her gown was much torn, and covered with mud. Wit- ness here observed that he conceived he should not be doing his daty unless he related to the Court what had come to his knowledge since the present sea. sions had commenced. At the time he gave the defend.. Idiot into custody, he believed the prosecutrix's story. which was the same she had this day detailed, and that. she was a virtuous woman ; however, on Tuesday' morning last, in going along Flees-market, between the hours of three and four, he observed the prorecutrit there in the company of several of the most abandoned females that infest that quarter. On leaving the Court the following day, he was determined to be convinced that be had not been mistaken, and for this purpose he disguised himself and followed her to Fleet.matket, though she stated she was going to her home at Chelsea. - On her art ival at Fleet-market, she entered into the same society, and he observed her conduct herself in the most indelicate manner. The defendant in his defence declared his innocence, and that the prosecutrix had consented to accompany him down the by. place, where they no sooner art ived than she called out " murder,"and gave him in charge for an attempt to violate her. The CHAIRMAti s in summing up the evidence, ob. served, that notwithstanding the prosecutrit's character, they would, if they believed her story, find a verdict against the defendant; however, an assault had cettaiuly besn committed. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty of the COOP man assault. The CounT sentenced him to two months' imprison ment in the County jail. THE MARKETS.. CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, Dec. 10.
