The jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was seuteuced to 12 months hard labour. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—JaIg 5. (Before Mr. Payne.) John Lane, 38, described as a brewer, was in dicted for unlawfully assaulting James Beresford, with intent feloniously and violently to steal goods, &e., from his person. This was a very singular case. The prosecutor, an elderly gentleman, partly paralysed, lived at 6, Gloucester-cottages, laverstock-hill, and on June 19, having been out a short time, he was passing from the gate in front of the house to the door, when a man (the prisoner) sprang upon hint from behind a tree, threw him down, and grasped him tightly by the throat. He struggled wi.h him, and cried out "Murder," when a man named King ran up and held the prisoner until a policAnan came up and took him iu charge. When the prosecutor gut got up his - watch wasdangling from his pocket, and, under the supposition that the prisoner intended to steal it, he charged him with having assaulted him with the obj-ct of committing that offence. The prisoner, in his defence, said it was far from his intention to commit any criminal act when this transaction took place. He had gone through the gate, the hour being late and the night dark, ftir natural purpose, apd-when he was about to leave, the prosecutor. came against him as he was to-ning round, and acrid-utaLy fell down, crying ru • der." Peis , ais eame and t,, in, utter amaze inwit ho wa, c,,ar , ect with attempting to rob the old gentleman. He did not live more than a hun dred yards from where it occurred, and as to his character, he had been in business with his father as a brewer at Rochester, also at Windsor, where he was burnt iv-, and on the very day thA it oc curred he had been in negotiation with a brewer's agent al -, out a business which he had to dispose That was all ht had to say, and he trusted he snould be a,cquited by the jury..,_ WESTM[NSTER.—WiII;arn Alfred Brown, aged 24, de4cribed us a doctor of laws, of 33, Bel grade-road, was charged with the following as saults : Joseph Clissold, artificial flower maker, of 2, Queen's-buildings, Brompton, stated that a little before tweive on Sunday night he was walking down Bionipton-road with his wife, whom ha left for a minute. On rejoining her he found her scuf fling with the defendant, who had his arm round her waist. On his interfering, the defendant struck him a blow in the face and walked off. Complainant followed and gave him i n t o custo d y, on w hi c h defendant kicked him several times. Mrs. Clissold and a policeman confirmed this statement, and Mr. Arnold sentenced the defendant t.) pay a flue of 51., or to be imprisoned for two months, for each assault. The money was paid. THE CONFESSION OF WIFE MURDER.- A SCENE. Yester , lay tr 0 - 11111,T Mr. Wi.liam Baker' and Ow ja, y no were empanelled to inquire into the eir- ' cum Stances of the death of a woman named Hoare, the wife cf John Hoare, a labouring man, re- - assembled at the Sherwood Arms, Bow-common lane, Broml-7. The inquiry was adjourned from Saturday last, and the first witness called was Mr. William Evan Willarns, a dresser at the London Hospital, who stated that, although he was summoned, he really did not recollect anything about the deceased's case. A kr. Jones, who sa4lie was a breweL's agent, corroborated the latter part of the prisoner's state ment, and gave him a good character for the period he had known him, about three ye*Ars. Mr. Payne told the jury it was a else peculiarly for them to determine. It was, to say th:! , least of it, a very suspicious matter, but he should advise them either to acquit the prisoner altogether, or, if they thought the evidence sufficient, to convict him of the whole charge, as there was no count for assault only. _ . Coroner—But surely you make some note of !he easeA that are brought Into the hospital? Witness—Well, no, tot always • it was very likely that the other dresser, Mr. fiennedy, was there. The Coroner said they were evidently in some what of a dilemma, the Foreman not taking the same view of the case Ds hii brother jurymen. It, however, wanted but three grains of common sense to understand ti,e whole case, for it was in law perfectly clear. Foreman—Perhaps I have not those three grains of common sense, but still I have my own idea. Coroner—You may have that amount of com- The jury said they were agreed as to an assault, but thought there was no intention to rob the pro secutor oii the part of the prisoner. This was entered, under the direction of the court, as a verdict of not guilty, and the prosecutor having stated that he did not wish to indict the prisoner for assault, he was discharged. mon sense or you may not, but I and your fellow jurymen_seem to see the case quite clearly. The Foreman—There is not the slightest proof that the man struck the woman, but there' is no doubt the woman struck the man. The Coroner said he must again remark that it appeared to him the: e could be no hesitation about the matter. It was a case of the utmost impor tance, for if the man was even insane, and set at liberty by them (the jury) or the magistrate, he might the moment he got loose commit =Aber murder. It was given them in evidence that the deceased's ribs were bound up at the Ifmadon Hos pital, and it was not at all likely that if the deceased - had not sustained a fracture of the r;ba they would have been bound up. The Foreman here intimated that he could not give way. The Coroner said, that as the Foreman was not convinced he must swear the constable to lock up the jury until they came to a verdict. He (the Coroner) had some other business to transact, and would return in about a couple of hours to receive their verdict. After some further remarks, the Foreman said as he saw there were eleven gentlemen against him, although he still held the same opinion as lie did before, that there was no proof the man Hoare struck his wife and caused the injuries from which she died, with the exception of iris own confession, which he (the Foreman) looked upon as the state ment of an insane man, yet, under existing circum stances, ho would give way. The Coroner said he was.very happy to hear such sentiments ft our the Foreman, as it appeared to him that he (the Foreman) could do nothing else. The jury then returned a verdict of " Man slaughter," against John Hoare, and the witnesses were hound over to prosecute at the Central Crimi nal Court. POLICE INTELLIGENCZ-July 5. MANSION-HOUSE.—Richard Taylor, cab driver, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged under the following circumstances : Mr. Edwd. Morgan, commercial traveller, said —On Saturday evening at a quarter-pwit eight o'clock I took the defendant's cab, in Bishopsgate street, and when I got in I gave him a sovereign and asktd him to get it changed, to enable me to pay my faro. I handed it to him through th 3 trap door at the top of the cab, and told him to drive me to 7, Belinda-cottages, Canonbury. We went a short distance and he got off his cab and went into a public-house in Acorn-street, as I supposad to get change, and he came out and said he would not drive me any further, aild that I had only given him a shilling. The Lord Mayor—Are you quits sure it was a sovereign that you gave him ? Complainant—l 4; . in confident of it. The Lord Mayor—Had you been drinking Complainant—l had, my lord, but I was sober enough to know what I was doing. Mr. Arthur G. Day, of Brentwood, Esex, said —I was with Mr. Morgan, and 1 put him into the cab. lie was not sober. I closed the_door, and the ealailrOve - off2tand I saw the cab Man speak threnth the hole of the cab, and as I passed on the cabman draw up at the corner of Acorn-street, and I went over and said, " Where is the sovereign ?" I had given the sovereign to Mr. Morgan. He said he had given it to the cabman, and the cabman was making a joke of it, and said, "Oh, ho had better ba searchei." The cabman would not give me his number, and ho tried to drive away, but Mr. Mor gan seized the reins and stopped him. The cabman said he had never received toe sovereign at all. Mr. Case, of 34, Bishomaate-street, tobacconist, said—Mr. Day was standing at my door on Satur day night and Mr. Morgan came by at the time, and Mr. Day stepped him and spoke to kan, and, seeing he was not sober, persuaded hits to go home in a cab, and gave him a sovereign. The cabman was at the door, and I asked hint if he would take the gentleman home, and he said " Yes," and I told him the gentleman had a sovereign in his pocket to pay the fare, and he then drove off. Childs (193) said—On Saturday night I was on duty in plain elates, and I saw a mob at the corner of Acorn-street. The complainant was then out of the cab, and the cabman was just driving away, and the bystanders said he had a sovereign belonging to the complainant. The complainant was following the cab, and the horse was stopped, and I went up and saw the cabman with a sow reign in his hand, aad I saw him put his hand be hind him, and tlin . e was another cabman close be hind him. I caught hold of the hands of both of the cabmen, and called a police-constable. The prisoner then shifted the sovereign to his otner hand, and put it in his pocket, and I took hold then of both his hands, and said " Where is the sovereign ?" He said, "I have a sovereign in my pocket, but that's my own." He said that twice or thrice on going to the station-house. I did not release his hand till he was in the station-house, and I then found a sovereign and seven shillings on him ; and whilst I was searching him he said if he had got a sovereign on him it slid not belong to him. When I found the sovereign I said, "Here is the sovereign ;" and he said, "It does not be long to me." Mr. Day stated in the course of his evidence that the cabmen who were about the corner of Acorn street made a vulgar joke of the matter, of the description were in the habit of d as people doing. The cabman, who seemed at first to think that he would very easily get over the busines s, cross examined the witnesses, who were at h is desire called in one after the other to answer his questions, but the case was made by his efforts, if possible, stronger against him than it appea red to b e upon the conclusive statement of the witnesses. The Lord Mayor—Prisoner, the charge agai ns t you s i o s ve f r o e r ig f i e l l . oniously stealing from Mr. M organ one The prisoner —Stealing, my lord ! You will take I suppose? baTil,hemyLloorrdd , Mayor—Oh dear, not at all. The Central Criminal Court is now sitting. The bill will go immediately before the grand jury, and you will be probably tried to-morrow morning. Have you anything to say ? The prisoner —Not now, my lord. I shall re serve my defence.--Committed for trial. BOW STREET. A. stout well-dressed man, who gave the name of John Lewis, l oo k e d a b out 60 years o f age , spo k e with an Irish accent, and said he resided at a private hotel, at No. 10, Cockspur-street, was charged with indecently assaulting Lytlia Edrapt, aged eight years, and Mary Mott, aged seven years and a-half, after making them drunk with gin and water and beer at a public house. The prisoner, who declared that his conduct to wards the children had been iuuocent, and rel.;ula ted by the best intentions, was committed fur trial on the felonious charge. Samuel Redman, a convicted burglar, and John Maul, a lad of about 16, in the service of Mr. Daniels, tail, r, of Long-acre, were charged stealing- about 20/. worth of property from Mr. D..niels' Sergeant CroArr., of the C division, said—About one o'clock on Sunday moaning I saw the prisoners under the doorway of the Unity Bank. Knowing Redman, who has been several times convicted, and on one occasion sentenced to eighteen months' imprisonment for burglary. I went up to them. Redman hied to take zuwetlung from his pocket, prevented him, and touk from that pocket a bunch of keys. Reiman protested against this proceeding on my part. Mr. Jardine—What did he say ? Witness— lie said " I won't be searched in the street." I then took both prisoners in custody. On the way to the station Maul said, " I am are spectable young wan, and this an (Reams)is is) s a MURDER OF MAJOR WATERFIELD. The Major and Captain Fanshawe were travel ling together in a vau with the intention of pro ceeding to Allyghur. They at first intended to have gone via Etah, but were warned not to do so. Unfortunately this route was taken. All went well till the van had passed Ferozabad, about six, wiles on this side, when both passengers were awoke about 1 o'clock, a.m., by the screams of the coachman, who it appears had received a shot through the stomach and they found themselves sur rounded by 150 mounted rebels. The coachman, spite of his wound, urged on the horse, but unfortunately received another shot, which killed. him. All this time the carriage wa,i followed by the rebels, and both nijor Wat , ertield and Captain Fanshawe used their revolvers, we believe, with some success. Major Watertield suddenly fell, without -a -groan; anti it subs:Auently appears that he had received two shots, one through the I head, and one through the che,t ; he also had a most desperdte tulwar wound across the abdomen. The horse, was now shot, and Captain Faushawe managed to get out. He was immediately surrounded, but so closely that the rebels for a moment could do nothing ; he struck the head ,of one horse which forced it back, and swinging his sword, - with which lie was luckily provided, right and left, he got through the crowd. Two fellows went after him, and one was in tho act of hitting him when he cut him across the thigh and the rebels bolted ; 'in fact he owed his life to the , extreme cowardice of the whole party. He ran on and got up a tree, whence , after hearing the villains take their departure, lie descended and was most kindly treated by the in habitants of a village close by. Poor Major Water field's remaini were sought for, and found lying in the embers of the burnt carriage. —Bombay Times.

It ts only a short time since this singularly efficacious article of animal diet first made its aprearaiKe ; and already its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted w;th a few facts concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since, a gentleman, wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. Ho then bought some of Thorley's food ; and he says the effect was wonder ful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and inthe course of a few weeks, had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agricultural Mows at Birmingham, Cardiff, Bse.,*the animals which carried off the highest pr;zes, bad been partly fed with Thorley's food for cattle, Such facts speak for themselves. and we are forged to the conclu sion, that its celebrity arises solely from its own intrinsic merits, and the great deinand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it.

'Sittings at Nisi Prins, at Guildhal, before Lord Chief Justice Canipoell and a Special jury.) THE QUEEN (ON THE PROSECUTION a F. W. STOCK WELL) V. • JEFFREE, AND. LORD CEARLES PELIT.93f CLINTON'. This was an indictment ihvolviag a charge of fraud and misrepresentation against .Mr. Alfred Jeffree and Lord C. P. Clinton. The' indictment was preferred against the defendants at the instance of Mr. F., W. Stockwell, a mining agent, carrying on business in Old Broad-street, City, and charged the defendants—the former of whore was secretary, and the . latter an extensive. shareholder of the Wheal Sion Mining Company—in caving bad re course to fraud and 'misrepresentation, in transac tions with hinrin reference to shares in the com pany with which they 'were respectively connected. There was also a count for conspiracies. The defendants pleaded not guilty. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine and Mr. Robinson con ducted the prosecution • the Attorney-General, Mr. Edwin James, and Mr. Sleigh for Lord C. P. Clinton ; and Mr. M. Smith and Hr. Gifford ap peared for Mr. Jeffree. From the opening statement of Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, it appeared that no shares in the Wheal Sion Company could be registered or transferred by the persona holding them until all the calls upon them had been paid. In Jan., 1857, application was made to Mr. Stockwell, the prosecutor, to dis count a bill for 3001. at three months' date, drawn by Jeffree upon, and accepted by, Lord C. P. Clinton. Three hundred shares in the mining et:tim pani, as well as some shares in other mines, were to be transferred to him and d'apbsited with him as collateral security. Air. Stockwell advanced the money upon those terms to Jeffcee, by whom the transaction was conducted. On the sth of April the bill was dishonoured, and after some negotia tions conducted by Jeffree, it was renewed for 5001., with an additional advance of money upon the secu rity of some further shsr in WIILII w ere deposited. There wei e also other transactions between them. The prosecutor disposed of some of the shares, and it subsequently turned out that Lord Charles Clin ton bad transferred to him between 30) and 400 shares upon which the calls had not been regularly paid up. The prosecutor was thou held liable and in justification of himself he charged Lord Charles Clinton and Mr. Jeffree, before the Lord Mayer, with fraud, but the case was dismissed on the ground of insufficient evidence. However, the prosecutor felt himself aggrieved, and he determined to proceed against the defendants by way of indictment to vindicate his character. It seemed that the calls upon the shares were ultimately paid, and that the prosecutor was no sufferer in a pecuniary point of view, all the money owing to him in respect of these transactions having been paid to him by Lord C. Clinton. The learned counsel, at the 'conclusion of his statement, said it was very probable. that Lord Charles Clinton, who was not a man of business, had been misled by the misrepresentations of others in regard to the shares. • Lord Campbell—What is the specifie charge against the defendants ? • Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—Representing that Lord Charles Clinton had more shares in the mining company than he really possessed. Lord Campbell—That does not appear in the in dictment. In a serious case of this kind counsel ought to be prepared to point out in the indictment the false pretence which is relied upon. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine — The fraud is in repre senting that the calls upon the shares had been paid when in reality they had not. Mr. Stockwell, the prosecutor, was then examined at some length, in regard to the details of his trans actions with Mr. Jeffree and the other defendant. The Attorney-General submitted that upon thi s evidence there was no proof of any fraud on the part of Lord Clinton. • Lord Campbell—l do not see any case made out against him yet. The Attorney-General—That being your lord ship's opinion, I shall not cross-examine the prose cutor. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine said that in his opening he had conveyed to the jury the impression in his own mind with respect to Lord Charles Clinton, and after that expression of his lordship's he was of opinion that he could not miry the case against him furthe r. Zord Campbell—Then I think,Lord Chas., Clin ton ought to be acquitted. One of the Jury—We are quite of the same opinion, my 'ford. A verdict of "Nut Guilty," as regarded Lord Charles Clinton, was then returned. The Attorney-General— . l am bound to say, on the part of Lord Charles Clinton, that we are pre pared with the clearest evidence in the world to prove that he gave security for treble the amount he ever received from the prosecutor, and he was guilty of no fraud or misrepresentation wha'ever, and although all the bills had been paid, Lord Chas. Clinton had not up to the present moment received back his shares. Lord Campbell—l say nothing about the other defendant ' • but as far as Lord Cha r les Clinton is concerned, I think it is a very improper prosecution. After the charge had been investigated before a ma gistrate and dismissed for want of evidence, the pro secutor took upon himself to prefer a bill of indict ment against the defendants. I lament that a bill of indictment can be preferred without previously going before a magistrate ; but when a case is exa mined by a magistrate, and he finds there is no foundation for it, I think it is extremely wrong for the prosecutor to go before a greed jury and get a bill of indictment against the accused party behind his back. The Attorney-General said several noblemen and gentlemen were present to speak on behalf of Lord Charles Clinton ; but as the case against him was at an end, their further attendance would not be re quired. Lord Combermere, Lord Colchester, Viscount Ingestre, and Sir W. Willoughby, who had been ac commodated with seats on the bench, now left the court. Other evidence having been adduced against the other defendant, Mr. M. Smith rose to address the jury for the de fence. Lord Campbell asked, the jury whether they wished to hear th e l earne d counse l. Mr. Sergeant B a ll ant i ue— ll your lordship is of opinion that there is no evidence I will withdraw the case. _ Lord Campbell—This is a very serious charge, and if the defendant were found guilty, I could sentence him to penal servitude or transportation beyond the seas. It, therefore, ought to be made out by clear evidence. I myself do not see ho# the charge is fortified, but if you entertain a doubt upon the point, the case will go on. The jury then returned a verdict of not guilty. Lord Campbell—l must say, gentlemen, this is a most improper and scandalous prosecution, and re flects the highest discredit upon the prosecutor. It is lamentable to see bow charges of this kind may be brought against most innocent and honourable members of society, and I.hope some check will be given to such vexatious prosecutions. The defendants then left the court accompanied by their friends. carrying the cable.• On the 15th May an agreement was entered into between Capt._ Roberts and, Mr. Brett, by which it was agreed that Capt. Ro!Jerts should provide a suitable ship for carrying the cable, and bring, her to Mordan's wharf,. Blackwell, 'where the cable was; and that the vessel should be at the Nore ready to start' with the cable on the 15th July. Capt. Roberts was to bear all the ex pense of preparing and equippingethe ship. He was to be paid 10,0001. for laying down the cable be tween Sardinia and Africa, a distance of 140 miles; and as an 'extra distance of 40 miles of cable Wight be required on the coast of Africa, 2,0001. more was to be paid in respect of that. 1,0001. was to be paid in cash within seven days of the vessel being along side Mordan's wharf ; 2,0001. within 21 days of her being at the wharf ; 2,000/., one-half in cash a:ad half by a bill, on her leaving the Nore ; and the 2,000/. for the extra length of the cable was to be paid when the work was dons. The remaining 5,000/.ewes to .be paid in shares in the company. If the vessel was not ready to leave the sore on the 15th of July, Captain Roberts was to forfeit 2001. a-week. It was arranged that Capt tin Kell, a friend of Mr. Brett's, and who had been engaged in laying down a telegraph, should go in the vessel, and that he should be paid by Mr. Brett 1501. for his services. Capt. Kell accordingly went to Portsmouth and saw the vessel, and he and everybody else approved of her, as fitted for the purpose. Af. er the contract was signed, Mr. Brett got Capt. Raberts to. make a declaration of the amount which he was to receive, so that the 12,0001. might be obtained from the French Government. On the 20th May Capt. Ro berts agreed to purchase the Cornwall for 6,000/., end on the 22d a bilrof sale was executed to hint, for though Capt. Roberts had not the 6,400/. in his pocket, yet from his position and reputation he would have had no difficulty in providing the funds. It was afearwards arranged that the first insed-' went of 1,0001. should be p lid to Capt. Ilob,r,s by a bill insteel cif in cash, out it having been found that the bill was not drawn in a negotiable_ form Capt. Brett gave it back to Mr. Dellamore, who said be would procure him one for 2, - 000/. This had, however, not been done, and one of the claims now made was, that either the 1,0001. or 2,0001. bill should be handed to Capt. Roberts. A comes pondence.took place, the result of which was, that Mr. Brett refused to put the cable in the Cornwall, and it was ultimately sent out in the Result, a ves sel which was purchased of Mr. Green. Capt. Ro berts bad, however, in the meantime, incurred con siderable expense in fitting the vessel, and he bad also, according to his agreement, insured the cable for 60,0d0/. Finding that objection was made to the Cornwall, Capt. Roberts chartered the Del i Reada, a ship to which no objection could be made, and sent her to Mordan's Wharf on the 7th July, and demanded the cable. As to damages, the re sult of the breach of contract had been most disas trous to Caet. Roberts. He had involved himself in various contracts, and had been driven to the ,Court of Bankruptcy t ) relieve himself of his diffi culties. He was obliged to give up an appointment to go out to the Black Sea in charge of some gun boats, and had lost his appointment of Surveyor to the Admiralty. Capt. Roberts calculated that he would have derived from the contract, if the Corn wall bad gone, a profit of 7,7001., and if the Del Reads 5,000/., but it was still more important to him that his character should be set right with the Admiralty and the public. Capt. Roberts was called as a witness to prove these facts, and several other gentlemen were exa mined to prove that the Cornwall was a vessel qua lified to carry out the cable. For the defence, it was stated that even if Capt. Roberts had carried out the contract, his profit would have been but trifling, after all the expenses had been paid ; that Mr. Brett had repudiated the contract in consequende of having been led to be lieve, from inquiries which he had made, that the Cornwall was not sufficient for the purpose, and several ship surveyors and other professional gentlt men were examined on, this part ,of the case, to prove that that was the fact ; that the defendan', personally, had no interest in not carrying out the contract with Capt. Roberts, and that the declara tion which had been made by him was not made for the purpose of enabling the defendant to get the money from the French Government. The jury gave a verdict for Capt. Roberts, with 2,300/. dumps ; and in the action of Lee v. Brett his lordship ordered tbe verdict to be entered for the defendant. Leave to move on some points of law was given in both actions. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. 7—,TuIy o. OLD COURT. Emily Hodges, 22, a good-looking young woman, and Frederick Hodges, 27, described as a jeweller, were charged with a misdemeanour in obtaining money by false pretences. Mr. Sleigh prosecuted ; Mr. Metcalfe was coun sel for the defendants. The offence charged in the indictment was that of having defrauded several pawnbrokers in the me tropolis by a very ingenious system of fraud. The prosecutor was Mr. Sowerby, a pawnbroker, carry ing on business iu Grosvenor-place, Pimlico, and it appeared that on the 9th March the female prisoner went to his shop, and hauded to his shopmae, a per son named Hall, what appeared to be a golden locket, and asked for au advance of 4s. upon it. Hall inquired if the article was gold, and she re plied that it was the best of gold, and that it had been given to her by her sweetheart before she was married. The shopmar, without testing the article, gave credit to the statement of the prisoner, and advanced her the sum she required. On the 22d March the female prisoner went to the shop again, and handed to Hall a locket of precisely the same description as the former one, and upon the shop man inquiriug whether it was the same locket she had previously pledged, she replied that it was, and repeated the story she had told before, that it was of pure gold, and that it was given to her by her sweetheart, and Hall, believing her story, ad vanced her 3s. She went again ou the 9th April, and told the same story, and she was again success ful in obtaining au advance upon the article. The prisoner went a fourth time to the shop on the 23d April, and again produced a locket to pledge, but in the meantime it appeared information bad come to the knowledge of the prosecutor, which induced the shopman to put some questions to the prisoner, who refused to state where she lived, or to give any information respecting herself, and upon a search being made three lockets all of the same descrip tion were found to have been received in pledge. A policeman was then sent for, and when the pri soner found she was to be detained she rushed at gall, the shopman, and scratched his face most severely. After the woman had been removed to the police station, the male prisoner went there and mid that she was his wife, and that he had sea her to pledge the articles, and that the inspector was exceeding his duty in detaining her, as what she had done did not cons itute an offence against the law, and he added that Lord Chief Justice Camp bell had so decided in a case of a precisely similar character. Upon the articles being subsequently tested, it was ascertained that at that part of the lockets to which the aquafortis was usually apelied for the purpose of testing, a very small quantity of inferior gold had been introduced, but the articles themselves were in reality of very small value—not more than eighteen pence at the outside each. The only evidence against the male prisoner was the statements be bad made to Mr. Cumming, the police inspector, and at the close of the case of the prosecu tion the Recorder expressed his opinion to bo that the charge against him had not been made out, and he was accordingly acquitted. The jury found the woman guilty, but recom mended her strongly to mercy, on the gro und that there had been a want of caution evinced on the part of the pawnbroker, and that if he had properly tested the article in the first instance, the fraud would have been prevented. The Recorder sentenced her to be imprisoned in Newgate for one month. .14)seph Johnson surrendered to take his trial for wilful and corrupt perjury. Mr. Robinson conducted the prosecution. Mr. Lilley appeared for the defendant. It appeared that the prosecutor in this case was a person named Quieten, and that on S un d . y, th e 28th of March, ho and the prisoner, and several other persons, were drinking together, and that some of the party were a good de a l t h e worse f or i liquor. About 5 o'clock n the afternoon the prose cutor gave prisoner a sovereign to fetch half-a-pint of gin, and he went out for that purpose, and wee absent nearly an hour, and wh en h e returne d an d b ro ught the gin, and was asked for the change of the sovereign, be declared that the prosecutor had only given him a shilling. The prosecutor up ii this summoned the prison ( r to the County Court, and upon the former swearing that he bad given him a sovereign, he volunteered to be himself sworn as a witness, and, although he was cautioned to be careful in what he stated, he declared upon his oath that the prosecutor did not give him a sovereign, but that it wag a shilling he received from hiw, FARES THERE AND RACE.

These two actions arose out of the same transac tion, Q.C., Mr. Lush, Q.-0., and Mr. Beasley appeared for the wiiili jr. a a ti mß d eos t : h i e lQ y i,.o w . e , re isch th . er u e fn a r vr e kis, and Mr. Lloyd plaintiffs ; and Mr. Ed eouftlettnhean connected with the for the defendant. Iu opening the case, the plaintiff's counsel stated St. Leonard's Iron that Captain was Royal 'Marine Artillery,. and it was to his exertions Poplar, ain that the country was mainly indebted for the equip ment of the gun and mortar boats that were sent during the Russian war into the Baltic and the Black Sea. He had for some years held an important position as surveying officer to the Admiralty, and his name was well known in his profession. In the year 1855 he became aware that the Medi terranean Electric Telegraph Company were desi rous of laying down a cable between Sardinia and the Coast of Africa, and be, in consequence, was brought into communication with Mr. Dellamore, the secretary to the company, and to Mr. Brett, the gerant of the company. Capt. Roberts was con vinced that be could lay down this cable. This was in April, 1855, and at that time there was an old frigate called the Cornwall lying at Portsmouth, which , the Government was willing to - sell, and which it was thought would be fit for carrying out the cable. Some communication took place with the Admiralty, but it was found that the Govern ment wanted too m uch money for her, and the ne gotiation went off. Capt. Roberta then ascertained that there was a tcall-built East Indiaman, also caned the Cornwall, which was at Portsmouth, and was for sale. She was of the strongest possible con struction, and was short built, and so suited for Lera
