The occurrence.; at a masked 411 at Sassari were mere individual offences, and did not constitute A revolt. Thu Courts of Justice alone were competent to try them. I consequently propose the following order of the _,416Y The Chamber, consider ing that the Cabinet had no right to deprive the inhabi tants of the town and province of Sassari of their consti tutional franchises, passes to the order of the day. •-• After a few words from M. Asproui, General della Msrmors, Minister of War, rose and said—. " It is my duty to refute insinuations tending to repre sent the ciriz"na as having been assaulted by the troops. & person perfectly worthy of credit, who left Sassari of the 24th February, certified to the Government that it was the soldiers who had been ill-treated and me naced in their barracks. Officers and soldiers were in °Lilted b y the citizans and the National Guard. Cul pable viulanco was exercised towards them. A corporal was wounded by a pistol-shot fired by an advanced sen try of the National Guard. The troops behaved cith &Pt:porosity and magnanimity." M. Ilitazzi. and M. Decondia subsequently vindi cated the conduct of the Government. The latter declared that the National Guard had dishonoured itd uniform by becobuing an luatrutnent of asassi nation. M. Stills protested against those words, asserting that the shots were not fired by the N at i sma i Guard, but by citizens armed with fowl ing-pieces. M. Lirme then moved an order of the day, by which the Chamber reserved its judgment on the measures a dopted by th e G overnment, but it was not supported. Finally, on th e proposition of 2,1. Gustave de Cal-our, the simple order of the day was put to the vote, and adopted by a considerable msjo af cer warns adj ournAd rity. The Assembly The anniversary festival of this usr3ful charity was celebrated on Tuesday evening at the London Tavern,Vis count Mahon, M.P., in the chair. The Noble Chairman having given the - loyal toasts, with a few appropriate remarks, in proposing the " toast of the evening," said such meetings as fhb present were peculiar to this country, and it was cheering to perceive that gentle men of opposite political principles could unite cordially in supporting a charitable society. In pleading on be halt of this institution, be noticed its value in seeking out and supporting ehe decayed arid unfortunate, who were deserving of receiving its benefits. And he considered that it would be much better if individuals were to contribute to such charities where the merits of the re cipients were strictly inquired into, instead of mis takenly encouraging those impostors who abused their benevolence. He. drew an amusing pic ture of the tricks practised by professed mendicants trom Sheridan's play of The Critic. Mr. Thomson, the chairman of the directors, proposed the health of the Noble Chairman, and stated that Earl Stanhope had ac c,pted the office of the president of tho society, and had been pleased to send a donation of 101. and to double his annual subscription. The report stated that the sum of 56,991/. had been distributed by the society since its commencement to 882 pensioners. There were at pre sent 55 persons receiving assistance.

Charles Oxenden, the respected rector of Bar ham, met with an accident in the course of last week, which will, we fear, incapacitate him from fulfilling his parochial duties for some time to come. Mr. C. Oxendon was walking the rectory, his house, when he slipped down an eh and in the effort to re cover his footing, snapped the tendons of the leg, just above the ankle. To a gentleman of his active habits this is a most ri in p t t h terrace garden bank of unfortunate occurrence,seeing that though neither dangerous nor painful, the accident is one which requires entire rest and perfect quiescence. Our readers may remember that some months back we recorded an accident of a similar nature, which befel Mr. Charles Vernon Oxendon, of the Rifle Brigade, son of the above gentleman, on the St. Lawrence cricket ground, when playing the match betwesn the gen tlemen of Kent and the gentlemen of England. —Lover Telegraph.

A spacious entrance, capable of accommodating two coaches, leads the visitor throuih a vestibule to the cntrunce, where the bureau and the wardrobe are situated.

That noblemen and squires, by their infatuation for superabundance of game (which amounts to a sort of mania or madness), should bring upon the community all the ills and evils which they do, is truely disgraceful, and it is impossible that it can be much longer endured. No reasonable person would begrudge tern of rational sport and diversion, but the contrary ; yet their game preserving, has grown to such a bight that the country justly condemns it, and because it beget injuries and consequences most serious. It is, also. too bad that the public should have to pay, in any shape, one farthing for prosecutions arising out of the ;game-laws. The time is hastening on when some preserves will have, as they ought to have, the entire cost of those prosecutions to defray them selves ; and they ought to be at the expense of maintaining the prisoners, and exonerating the ratepayers from charges of the convicts' wives and families. This being accomplished, My Lords and Gentlemen" would then act differently to what they now do.—(From a Correspondent.

Two native women were proceeding at an early hour in the morning towards a patch of jungle in the immediate neighbourhood of a village in the Eastern district, when a tiger suddenly sprang from beneath a bush, and seized one of them by the arm. The screams of the terrified victim, and those of her equally ter rified companion, brought to the spot a number of the inha bitants, at sight of whom the tiger took to his heels, hotly pursued by the intruders on his morning's repast. The brute made straight for the village, and rushed into the hut of a poor woman, who had sufficient presence of mind to rush to the spot and bar the door against the exit of her un welcome visitor, who remained in sole possession of the pre inises. There, however, he was not long suffered to remain undisturbed. The multitude crowded round the entrance, and one, bolder than the rest, climbed to the window, and strucked the imprisoned savage several blows with his club, upon which he leaped over the wall and slunk into the neighbouring jungle. There his assaliant had again the au dacity to pursue him, and paid for his temerity with his life. While " beating about the bush," to the great alarm of his more prudent companions, a low growl warned him of the approach of danger, and in an instant he was stretched life less on the sward. The tiger then disappeared, leaving the inhabitants, we may suppose, with no very ardent desires for his return.—lndian Paper. LEGACY, &C.

The commiosion for the county of Surrey was opened at this place on Monday, and to-day business was pro ceeded with in both courts, Mr. Baron Parke presiding on the Civil Side, and Mr. Justice Coleridge in the Crown Court. There are 33 prisoners for trial on the Crown Side, and 44 causes are entered at Nisi Prius, six of which are special jury cases. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Baron PARKE and a Com mon Jury.) JENNINGS V. CROCKER. This was an action to recover damages for a breach of promise of marriage. Mr. Chambers, QC., and Mr. Bavill appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. James, Q.C., and Mr. Wordsworth, were counsel for the defendant. The plaintiff in this action, it appeared, was a cook, and in the years 1848 and 1849 she filled a situation in that capacity in the family of a gentleman named Clark, residing at Peckham. The defendant, who was at that time not more than 18, was in the service of a butcher in the neighbourhood, and the parties it appeared be came smitten with each other, and by the consent of the mistress of the plaintiff the defendant was allowed to visit her in the kitchen, and was received by her and her fellow-servants as a suitor, and on several occasions he intimated his intention to marry her, and said he should set up in business for himself ; and one of the other servants in the establishment was to be taken into their service when they were married. During the courtship the defendant sent several valen tines and other poetical epistles to the plaintiff, but as she unfortunately was unable to read, a good deal of their intended effect was doubtless destroyed. The par ties, however, continued a correspondence together until the month of August in 1851, when the defendant wrote a letter to the plaintiff, in which he addressed her as " Madam," and went on to say that he was surprised she should have said that he had left Peckham bieause he was ashamed to stay there any longer; and that he had done nothing he was ashamed of, and he intended to return very shortly. He also said that he had heard she had been to his uncle's to complain about him, and advised her to be very careful what she said in future. The letter went on to state that he did not care what she or any one else said about him. He was fond of having " a flirt," and he would have one as long as he lived; and the letter concluded by stating, that if she behaved well, when he went to Peckham he would go and see her. The letter was signed, " Yours, &0., J. B. C.;" and it appeared that two months afterwards the defendant got married. Evidence was given to prove these facts, and it ap peared that the defendant had stated to one of the wit nesses that an uncle had died and left him 1,0001.; and after this a coolness was observed on his part towards the plaintiff. It appeared that the latter was five or six years older than the defendant. Mr. JAMES made a most humorous speech to the jury on behalf of the defendant. He said he was quite sure this action would never have been heard of, if it had not been for the silly boast of the defendant, that his uncle had left him a thousand pounds, for which there was not the least foundation; and the fact would, no doubt, have been proved, if it had been capable of proof. The case, he submitted, was of a most trumpery character. What were the facts? A butcher's boy, for he really was nothing else, in the course of his business falls in love with a lively cook. Which was to blame it was not for him to say, but cooks were proverbially susceptible.— (Laughter.) Whether it was owing to the heat of the kitchen, or to the peculiar nature of their profession, he could not say, but certainly they did continually bear of the affections of cooks for policemen, and persons of that stamp, and Life Guardsmen.—(A laugh.) In the pre sent instance it appeared to be a butcher's boy. He con tended that there had been nothing but a little familiar flirtation, and all that the plaintiff had lost was her butcher's boy.—(Renewed laughter) He then referred to the poetical epistles sent by the defendant, and ob served, that inasmuch as the plaintiff could not read, she could not have been very much affected by them, and the Learned Counsel caused a roar of laughter in court by referring to some of the letters. In one of them the defendant, after talking about " foaming tear" and " loving hearts," and such matters, concluded by stat ing, as a postscript, "In haste, as lam going to kill." In another letter he gave an account of his old mare having " slipped up" as he was riding very fast down a hill, and he said that if he had not "stuck" to her, he must have been seriously injured, but as it was, they both got up together, and he found nothing was the matter with either, so that he went off again as fast as aver. The Learned Counsel concluded by calling upon the jury, if they gave a verdict at all for the plaintiff, only to award moderate damages, as any others must inevitably cause the utter ruin of the defendant. Mr. Baron PARKE summed up, and the jury, after a very brief deliberation, returned a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages 501. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—Ezetcr, March 20. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice TALFOURD.) 11 illiam Gildon was indicted for the wilful murder of John Finch, on the sth March, at Marychurob. Mr. Collier and Mr. Carter were counsel for the prose cution, and Mr. Cox for the prisoner. It appeared that the prisoner was a wheelwright, living near Torquay, occupying one of a row of houses. In the course of last summer he married a young woman 'of the name of Ann Finch, who, before her marriage, had an illegitimate child by a person of the name of 'Thomas. It was part of the arrangement that this child should live with them after their marriage. On `the sth of March a Mrs. Stier, the former mistress of the wife, came to see her old servant, and shortly be fore she left the prisoner came in, and at that time the child was well and cheerful; it was undressed and put to bed. The prisoner's wife went out with Mrs. Stier, to see her a little way on the road. They left at seven o'clock. The wife returned at eight o'clock, and during her absence the child had met with an injury, from which it died at five o'clock the next morning. On the sur geon, who had been called, making a more particular observation, be found on the back part of the head, just behind the ear, a mark showing that the child must have received a most violent blow, and he was of opi nion that that blow must have caused the death. The prisoner accounted for this appearance by stating that the child had fallen out of bed. The surgeon, however, did not believe that the injury could have been so re ceived. Blood was seen upon the prisoner's hand and trousers. The prisoner had since said that, had it not seen for the long tongue of his wife, the neighbours Would have known nothing about it. Mr. Cox urged that there was no motive shown for the prisoner taking the life of the child, and that it was possible it might have died in convulsions by knocking itself about in those convulsions. I Mc. Justice TALFOURD summed up the case to the Mr. CARTER suggested that his Lordship bad not Mated to the jury that if they did not think the pri soner guilty of murder, they might coLvict him of man slaughter. Mr. Justice TALFOURD said he did not know how he could suggest such a thing. The jury, however, appeared to have heard this re- Mark, for they returned a verdict of Manslaughter. Mr. Justice TALFOURD, in passing sentence, observed that the jury had come to a decision upon a mere case of possibility. It was, indeed, a mere possibility that this could have been manslaughter and not murder. In his opinion all the circumstances tended' to the conclu sion that the more serious crime had been committed. lie should pass upon him the most severe sentence the law allowed—that he should be transported for life to a penal settlement. BUSINESS OF THE ClRCUlT.—Notwithatanding the judges aro sitting till a very late hour every night, the blisiness is so very heavy that they have been compelled to postpone the commission day at Bothnia from Wed nesday till Thursday. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—Warwick, March 24. (Before the Lard Chief Justice JERVIS and Special Juries.) FOSTER V. PARKES. This was an issue directed by the Court of Chancery to ascertain whether the plaintiff was the heir at law of Isaac Parkes, who formerly lived at Birmingham. The property was of considerable value, said to be nearly 60,0001., and the present question arose upon the death of a granddaughter of Isaac Parkes, the plaintiff clitiming as grandson in another line. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C. (specially retained), Mr. Mellor, Q C., and Mr. Hayes, appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Huwfrey, Q C., Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., and lair. Field, for the defendant. The court was crowded from an early hour, in expec• Wien of a case of much interest, but certain mysterious whisperings amongst the legal gentlemen gave rise to some misgivings ; and Mr. James was shortly stating the facts of the case, when he was interrupted by Mr. Ilumfrey, and after a brief discussion an arrangement was come to between the parties, by which the defendant, as we understood, was to have 10,0001., and ber costs, conveying any interest she might have in the property to the plaintiff as heir-at-law. Subject to that arrang , - ment a verdict was taken for the plaintiff; and the trial, which it was fully exp , cted would last two if not three days, thus pleasantly terminated. Messrs. Bevan and Goodeve, of Old Jewry, London, were the plaintiff's solicitors; Mr. Ludlow, of Birming ham, for the defendant.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, March 24. (Before Mr. WITHAM and a Bench of Magistrates, at the Guildhall, Westminster.) James Phineas Davis and David John Davis were jointly indicted for having committed an asiault upon Mr. John O'Brien, a person whose name has been for some time past before the public in connexion with turf transactions, on the afternoon of the 18,h inst. Mr. Sleigh conducted the prosecution; Mr. Ballantine appeared for James Phineas Davis, and :Mr. Parry for David John Davis. The defendants both pleaded not guilty. Mr. SLEIGH, in a brief address to the jury, stated the facts of the case, as detailed in the following evidence. The prosecutor was examined by Mr. Sutton. He said—l am of no business or profession whatever. I was educated for the legal profession in Dublin, but I never took up my degrees, although I am entitled to them for having passed the required numbor of terms. I know the defendants, who were engaged against me profes sionally as solicitors, in an action at law and in a suit in Chancery. I reside at the Talbot Hotel, Richmond. I have been extensively engaged in sporting transactions ; and I may say that, next to Lord George Bentinck, I have been suc- cesiful, and have some of the best horses on the turf. On the afternoon of the 18th of this month I was in James-street, Haymarket, where I saw the two defendants. They were coming in the direction of the Haymarket, and I was going away from it. They were then arm-in -arm, but as soon as I got close to them they unclosed their arms, and stood about half a yard apart. James Davis then, putting himself in a menacing attitude, said to me," What do you want with us?" I said I did not want anything to do with people of their class, as I understood they bad b ee n t o my h o t e l at Richmond for the purpose of vilifying my character. Upon this, James Phineas Davis seized the stick I held in my right hand, and David Davis immediately struck me with a larger stick that he held in his hand. The stick be had in his hand was large enough, I should say, to fell an ox. He struck me on my neck, but the blow was evidently aimed at my head. Seeing the formidable nature of the stick, I endeavoured to get the stick from him. David Davis then seized me by the collar, while I with my left hand held the stick in his hand. My right hand was engaged in trying to preserve my own stick from Phineas Davis, but he almost immediately wrested it from my hand. I was then engaged in holding the other stick with David Davis, and my hat falling off, James Phineas Davis then, with my own stick, struck me violent blows, and on various parts of my body. A crowd collected, and a police-constable came up. I never attempted to insult, or offered any gesture of defiance to the defendants. Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE-Mr. Davis's slick was much thicker than mine. The two men both attacked me, and on endeavourieg to preserve my stick I was placed in an unfavourable position, and being off my guard David Davis seized me by my neckcloth. I will swear my hand was not raised against the defen dants first. This I believe arose out of an affair re specting a Mr. Clifton, and I was charged with fraudu lently obtaining a number of bills which are at present the subject of a suit in Chancery. Mr. BLEAK objected to this line of inquiry on a sub ject which was in the course of investigation in a supe rior court. Mr. BALLANTINE said he wished to test the credit of the prosecutor by his previous transactions. The prosecutor was cross-examinad at great length, and questioned in reference to assumed previous trans actions, with a view to impeach his credibility. Mr. John Gubert was the next witness. He said that he was a baker in the employment of Mr. Barker, Pear son-street, Kingsland. On Thursday afternoon, the 18th instant, he was in James-street. He saw Mr. Da vid Davis try to throw Mr. O'Brien. He caught hold of him by the throat, when the other gentleman struck him with a stick. He never saw either of the persons before. The first thing he saw was the seizing him by the collar. A person who was by called out " shame," upon which Phineas Davis said, " That is the noted O'Brien, the extortioner." Henry Hockley said he was passing , through Jam es . street on the afternoon in question. His attention was attracted to something going on. A desperate struggle took place between the prosecutor and David Davis. The witness then went on to give corroborative evi• dense of the assault upon the prosecutor. This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. Ballantine then addressed the jury for the defen dant James Davis. Parry addressed the . jury for the o th er d efendant. The jury retired to cons ider their verdict, and after an absence of half an hour return ed into court.with a ver dict of Guilty against both pr isoners. Mr. WITHAM said the sentence of the Court was that each of the defendants pay a fine of 50/. to the Queen, and be imprisoned until such fine was paid. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WESTMINSTER. Mr. James Puyh, tailor and outfitter, of 117, Jermyn street, St. James's, underwent a very lengthened re-exa mination before Mr. Arnold, charged with having, by the agency of boys, uttered two forged cheques. Henry Hankers stated that on the 24th of November the prisoner met him in St. James's-park, and asked him if he could go as far as King -street for him. He then took him into New-street, Spring -gardens, and told him to wait a minute, and immediately afterwards joined him without a hat, and having told him that he belonged to the house 17 in that street, gave him a letter addressed to Mrs. Faulkener, and told him he must be careful, as he would have to bring money back, adding that he (prisoner) ought to go himself, but that his master had a dinner party and he could not spare time. Witness took the letter, got 201 . 10 3 . f rom M rs. Faulkener, an d was met upon his return, near No. 17, by the prisoner, to whom he gave the cash, and prisoner then gave him a shilling for his trouble. In reply to questions from Mr. Arnold, witness said he next saw the prisoner at the House, of Detention, Clerkenwell, whither he was taken by a pees officer, who told him that it was to see for the man who had given him the cheque. He was shown into about a dozen cells where there were prisoners before he came to the one where he recognised the accused. Nothing was said by the officer to point out the prisoner. The officer was not in the cells with witness. In oross-examination by Mr. Payne, the witness said that while in the waiting-room at the prison, before vi siting the cells, there was somebody walked by the door . in the passage, accompani e d b y anot h er ge ntleman, and the officer said that was the man. Witness was looking out of window at the m omen t th e o ff ic er said so, but turned round and saw two persons, an d merely caught sight of their forms, as they passed along the passage by the door so quickly. Mr. ARNOLD put some further questions bad n his visit questiionstotb to theewit ness, and elicited that, although he cells seen a demon or more prisoners before lied the accused, some of th e se were boys, others _ he i deet appa rently navigators, and that the prisoner was t he onl y well-dressed person he saw. whether that the o ce f r h w is a y s is e it el t ie ot he called, w ho said he told prison was ste see cheque; witness wh the he could point out the man who gave. him passed but he positively denied that, when the waiting-roo m i t s he thema" Witness door, h d e i d hadnot said hear t oHaanry prisonerk observatione Hankers, 4 ` T hat made at the time prisoner passed the door.

The boy was sitting at t he window with his back toward; the door, and did not move , although he might have looked towards the door , i n the opening of which witness was standing. Mrs. Faulkener and Mr. Partridge were then exa mined—the former to show that she gave the 201.103. to a boy who brought the letter purporting to be writs ae n by Mr. Partridge; and the latter to show that it wa s forgery. .This being the whole of the evidence for t he prosecu tion in Mrs. Fanlkener's case , The boy White was put into the witness - box with re heque t° Mr ' spect to the charge of uttering a forg ed c t by Dr. .

Mrs. Marling, the landlady of the now apartment'', not only confirmed the alibi, but declared that the ac cused was in bed at seven o'clock on the night of Sun day fortnight, in which she was corroborated by ac cused's wito'i nurse, and two witnesses from 117. Jer myn-street, were called to show that he did not go there en the evening in ipestion. Mr. Cresswell, is solicitor, who is the accused's father in-law, said he visited him at the prison on Thursday, and after a conference with him observed the efficer and a lad with him. The accused said, " I find the officer who arrested me is here," and added, pei n , in4 to the officer, " That is the man." The boy (Hankers) aid the officer were at that time standing with the room door open, looking at them.

Daniel Frazer, Eliza Frazer, his wife, and John Frazer, his brother, Were brought up fur finAl examins tion on 'a charge of plundering Mr. John Tallis, pries and publisher, of St John-street, Smithfisid. From the evidence of Mr. Tallis it appeared that for two years past the prisoner Daniel Fraa-r had siren in his emplo . } tnent in the parcel-packing department, on his premises in St. John-street, and that latterly the other male prisoner had also been engaged on the pre - mises in the map-colouring department. Up to Thurs day last he did not distrust their honesty; on the con trary, he had a high opinion of their characters, cularly of Daniel; hut on that day, in consequence of what had been told him, he went to the shop of a papa' broker in Holborn, and there found some books belong ing to him. Oa returning home Mr. Tallis told the prisoner Daniel Frizlr that he wished him to aceorapsoi him to a shop iti Holborn, when the latter made some excuse fur a few minutes' absence, and immediately ab' scondet His wits and brother were given into custody. and he himself in a few days gave himself up to en officer, to whom he had declared that he alone was the guilty party.
