LAW INTELLIGENCE. PRIVY COUNCIL, Dec. 15. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat to-day in the Council Chamber, Whitehall. The Lords present were Lord Brougham, the Master of the Rolls, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Cornwall, the Judge of the Admiralty Court, Sir E. Ryan, and Sir E. H. East. CRAWFORD V. SPOONER. The arguments in this appeal, which was part-heard at the last sitting of their Lordships on Friday last, were resumed and concluded. The case came before their Lordships upon an appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court of Bombay, in an action in which the appellant was plaintiff and the respondent defendant, in which the Court directed a ver dict to be entered for the defendant on the only issue joined in the cause, and afterwards gave judg ment for the defendant. The only question in this ap peal is, whether a vessel called the General Wood, of which the applicant is owner to the extent of eight sixty fourth parts, was entitled to be registered, and to have a certificate of registry granted to her at Bombay, under the provisions of an Act passed by the Governor-General of India in council, and entitled "An Act for prescrib ing the rules to be observed, in order that vessels be longing to ports within the territories under the govern ment of the East India Company, or belonging to native princes or their subjects, may become entitled to the privilege of Britiah ships under a proclamation of the Governor-General in council, made in pursuance of the 3d and 4th Victoria, cap. 56." The respondent is the officer, under that act, to register and grant certifi• cates to vessels at the port of Bombay. From the statement of the Learned Counsel, it appeared that the General Wood was built at Damaun, a Portuguese set tlement in India, for a Portuguese subject. From the year 1817 to 1841 the ship was variously owned—at some periods by Portuguese subjects, sailing under the flag of that nation; at other periods by British subjects, sailing under the British flag; and at other periods by Danish subjects, sailing under the flag of Denmark. In January, 1844, the vessel was sold to Sir Jamesetjee Jejeebhoy, Sons, and Co., British subjects, and mer chants residing at Bombay, who afterwards sold eight sixty-fourth parts or shares in the said ship to the Appel- lant, then and still beinc , a British subject, resident at Bombay, who, on the 11th of September, 1844, gave no tice thereof to the respondent, and required him to re gister the ship at the pert of Bombay, and to grant a certificate of such registry, which the respondent refused _ to do, whereupon the appellant brought his action in the Supreme Court, but the Court found against him. Hence this appeal. Lord BaouctrAm, at the conclusion of the arguments, gave judgment, reversing the decision ( f the Court below, and giving judgment fur the plaintiff. COURT OF CHANCERY, Dec. 15. The Lord Chancellor sat in the Old Hall, Lincoln's Inn, and took appeal motions today. His Lordship was occupied the whole morning with the further arguments in the part heard appeal motion of Toulmin v. Copeland. VICE CfIANCERY COURT, Dec. 15. (Before the VICli CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY v. GAMBLE AND NoTT. Mr. WEBSTER, at the sitting of the Court, was about to resume hi: arguments on the part of the defendants in this case, which cur readers will recollect came before the Court yesterday fur the purpose of obtaining an in junction to restrain the defendants from making use of the patent they had obtained for making electric tele graphs, on the ground of its being an infringement of the patents of the plaintiffs, when he was interrupted by • Mr. BETHELL, who stated that that had been done which he expected •, namely, an affidavit had been filed laSt night by the defendants, which he submitted, ac cording to the practice of the Court, his Honour could not receive. Ile wished, therefore, to know from his. Honour, whether, under the circumstances, he would receive it or rot. • The VICE CHA NCELLOR Said he should certainly rag ceive the affidavit, because sometiincs justice reepired ' that affidavits should be made even during t• - •.e hearing of a case. Mr. BETHELL observed, that such being his ILMOUI opinion, the case could not p:octed, as there were state• ments in that affidavit which called for an answer from the plairtiffs. The VICE-CHANCELLOR had no objection to the case shading ()vile and he would, in order to facilita - : the matter, if the parties chose, direct that the plaintiffs should bring such action as they might be advised. Mr. WEBSTER, on the part of the defendants, had no • objection to the adoption of such a course ; that was all they wanted. • Mr. STUART, who had just come into Court, and who was with Mr. Webster on behalf of the defendants, said that he had felt all along that such Must be the end of the case ; it was a purely legal question, and he con sidered the course that had been pursued yesterday by the leading counsel, on behalf of the plaintiffs, in forcing on the motion, for the injunction was one of the most un just Exercises of the power of counsel that he had ever witnessed in that or any other Court. He should always consider it inexcusable and most unjustifiable. The only redeeming part of the drama of yesterday was the excellent and instructing speech of Mr. Webster, and the lucid explanations he had given with respect to so valuable an invention. Ills clients had been charged yesterday with fraud and falsehood, and the Court had been occupied the whole day with a case which, it was clear from the beginning, must end as it had done, b 3 being sent to law. Mr. BETLIELL, with some warmth, observed that they would now proceed to some other portions of the busi ness of the Court, which he trusted would not be at tended with such loud and uncalled-for declarations as those that had been made that morning by Mr. Stuart. The motion .vas then ordered to - stand over, the plain tiff being at liberty to bring such action as he should be advised to try his legal right. The Court then proceeded to hear mAi )nr, the thi:d seal being continued. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. I . l TiGnAm.) DAWES v. BETTS. This bill was filed for the specific performance of au agreement made by Mr. James Betts, on the part cf his brother, Mr. Win. Betts, the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff was proprietor of a house in Ilighbwy place, Islington, which Mr. James Betts agreed to take from him for the use of his, brother, who was then on the continent. It appeared further, that the defendait had purchased in January, 18-13, the interest of a gentleman_ named Salmons, in the house in question, together with the lease of a field and other ground at the rear of the house, which he now alleged should be in eluded in the lease granted by the plaintiff to him. It was, however, admitted in the answer that this field, &e., was at that time let to different pershns. 'Messrs. Robin son and Hyne were the solicitori* employed by the defendant, whom he had consulted as to the best method of obtaining a removal of the lease of the house. On the 20th of May, 1843, the solicitors of the plaintiff re ceived back a proposal troise Me defendant's solicitor respecting the premises, with an agreem en t s i gne d b y the defendant's brother on his behalf. The agreement was to the effect that Thomas Betts, the plaintiff, having purchased the interest of Mr. Salamms in the house in Highoury-place, Is!ington, and the letter containing the offer of the plaintiff to give a renewal, having been handed to the defendant, who had signified his consent to the terms of the plaintiff's proposal through his bro ther. The receipt of this letter was acknowledged, and in that answee it:was distinctly stated that the field, &c, were not included in the agreement. It was denied by defendant, In. his answer, that Mr. James Betts was au thorised to act fur him in this case. Mr. James Betts, in his reoly to this last communication, stated that his brother was then oa the Continent, but would return shortly; lie returned in the latter part of De cember, and took the draft of this agreement to \lessrs. Robinson and Ilyam, so that it was evident he was aware of this agreement. On the 29th of September, 1843, a le:ter was sent by the defendant, requiring to know if he was secure from the erection of any build ings likely to annoy him in the neighbourhood of the house in Highbury-place. Shortly afterward.; a letter was received from the defendant's solicitors making some inquiries as to the field at the rear of the house, and expressing a wish that their client should have that, together with some other ground; to which the plaintiff replied that he could not give the land in question, which was at that time let to other persons, bet that he could let him have another field near the house. Plaintiff then stated that be heard no more of the matter till the Gth of October, when Messrs. Robinson and Ilyam returned a draft of the lease which had been perused by the defendant and his solicitor no lees than three times. In November, 1843,' a note was received by the plaintiff from Mr. Ilyam, stating that he h a d " been exp ect i ng a deed of engrossment from Mr. B e tt s , which delayed the proceedings. Defendant was all this time occupying the house in question. In the April following the house requiring some repairs, plaintiff sent his surveyor to inspect the premises, between whom and the defendant some altercation took place. But up to this period there was no denial on the part of the defendant for the authority of his brother to act for him, or of his being bound by the agreement that had been executed in his behalf. However, in seven months after he entered into posses sion of the houses, he called on the solicitors for the plaintiff and stated, for the first time,- that Mr 7 James Betts had no authority to sign the agree ment, but he did not even then state that he would not comply with the agreement, or sign the lease; the rent which had become due, was offered to Mr. Jenkins; plaintiff's solicitor, provided that it should be considered not to prejudice the position of Mr. Betts, by being taken as a recognition on his part of a right to comply with the agreement. This was refused and defendant with his then' solicitor called on Mr. Jenkins, and the lease was examined , and it was ad mitted by Mr. Robinson, that the defendant was not entitled to the field at the rear of the house. Mr. Robinson then handed the plaintiff the amount of the half year's rent, which he so ted was due by Mr. Betts. Defendant contended that this money was paid under protest, which was denied by the plaintiff; and the pre sent bill was filed. _ r rhe argunamits having con c l u d e d, hi s H onour d e f erred delivering judgment tilt he had read the bill and answer, well as the evidence. The Court rose at half-put three o'clock. (Before Sir J. K. BRUCE.) aonnca v. THE BRIGH TON • 9 LEWES, AND HASTINGS This was a motinoAnlji"Y .1. a new trial on the ground that the jury had not a verdict according to the evidence. The case was paSeciatiried in July last, before Lord Denman and a E three issues— the first, as to whether a road kiuisktr,ei,:e%ronlia(7hinckly turn road pike road and the Lewes hunt, road ; the second, what was the width ) of the as a bridge constructed by the defendants at a ert a a r-ch ofa on the line ; and, thirdly, whether th e b ride point awas height, width, and position, such as the defendants were bound by the Act of Parliament to construct. The argument: having concluded, His HONOUR said he was of opinion that in finding a THE SUN, LON DON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, DECEIVIBER 16 2 131(3. verdict for the defendants the jury had not paid atten tion to the charge of Lord Denman, with reference to the dedication of the whole road in question to the pub lic, and, therefore, on the second and third issues he would direct a new trial. The Ccurt then rose: COURT OF QUEEN'S BEIVCH,Dec. 15. THE QUEEN V. RICHARD DUNN. An impression seems to have gone abroad that this remarkable case would be tried here to.day. The notion was erroneous. The case is a special jury one, and cannot be tried during these sit:in&s without a special application to the Court to appoint a day before the expiration of the or dinary sittings. No application of this natura was made during the morning, which was occupied with a running-down case of not tke slightest interest, except to the parties immediately concerned. The Queen v. Dunn stands 92 in the printed list. In all pro bability it will be taken in its ordinary course. NEGLIGENCE OF AN ATTORNEY-SMITH V. SHAW. Mr. Watson, Q.C., and Mr. Borrill were for the plain tiff, and Mr. Parry for the defendant. This was an action of a novel but an important character. The plaintiff is a surgeon, and the defendant an attorney, on Fish-street-hill ; and the action was brought to recover compensation in da mages for the want of proper care and skill on the part of the defendant in conducting an action which the plaintiff had brought against a person named Briggs. By his carelessness and want of skill, it was alleged, a judgment had been obtained against him, and an exe cution put into his house on account of it, of which the plaintiff had received no previous intimation from the defendant, and which had cost 21/. The defendant bad placed various pleas on the record, setting forth that he did not promise, that he had well and faithfully discharged his duties, and also that he was unable to inform The plaintiff that a judgment had been obtained against him, as he had changed his residence. Mr. WATSON, QC.. stated the case to the jury. He said the plaintiff, Mr. Smith, was a surgeon, who had carried on business at Walworth, but who now resided at Stockwell, and that the action was brought to recover compensation in damages from the defendant, who had acted as his attorney. 'rhe defendant had car ried on business in Fish-street-hill for several years, and had a country residence at Walworth. Whenever a pro fessional pers m was employed, no matter what the nature of the profession might be, he was bound to use proper skill anddiligence in the discharge of the duties for which he was engaged; but if he was not possessed of the skill necessary for the proper carrying on of his professional business, and should be guilty of negligence, he was re sponsible to his client for any damage which might result to his interest in consequence of • his ;valet of skill and want of diligence. Fur ought he (Mr. Watson) knew, the defendant might be a very skilful practitioner, and might exercise skill in the service of other clients, but in the case of the plaintiff he certainly had net. The plaintiff had attended and supplied medicines to a minor named Briggs, and a debt of 161. 7s. had been contracted with him in consequence, and an action was brought against the young man for the amount; but as it appeared that he was wholly without the means of self support, and that the medicine was supplied with the cognisance of his father, Mr. Shaw was instructed to bring an ac tion against him for the amount. The action was brought in this court, but, as it was under 201., it was arranged that it should be tried before the Sheriff. Notice of trial was given, but it was found, owing to the absence of the plaintiff's assistant, who was abroad, that the evidence would not be sufficient to prove the plaintiff's case; it was not then proceeded with; therefore the notice of trial was countermanded. Mr. Briggs, not liking to be in hot water all his life, applit d for judg ment as in case of a nonsuit, in order to put an end to. .the action. The plaintiff finding that he could then prove his claim, proceeded a second time to put the matter in a train fur trial, and it was arr inged that it . 11oitld be tried before the Sheriff in six weeks, and a fresh ,nolle:e of trial was prepared, but served a day too late eliyethe defendant. lie then took another st-p, which almost any competent practitioner must heve known would only be incurring 41elteional expenses. He went before Mr. Justice Wightrnap, at eharnhet s, in order to get the rule set aside, wWals:the Learned Judge refused to (le but told him that: dr a g oraer was a peremptory one, and that he could net eite et fere with a rule of the superior court • but he advised him to apply to the Queen's Bench, in banco, to enlarge the order. lie might have done this on the 2d November, and no doubt the Court would have acceded to such an application, but he del not take any such step, and on the sth NJvember judgment was signed by the defendant "as in case of a nonsuit," so that the action was at once brought to an end. The de fendant had notice of the taxation of the costs, which were taxed at about 181., and no doubt attended to it, but he gave no notice to the plaintiff, andehe first inti mation he received of the fact was the-visit of a sheriff's offiesr, and the putting of an execution-into his house; The levy came to 211., and as he heppened to have the amount in the house, he paid it out. Ihe plaintiff, there fore, sought compensation for the expense of the levy, and the costs of the debt, which were: about 101., as well as compensation for the injury which' he had sustained on account of the negligent conduct of the defendant. Mr. Driver, an attorney, the plaintiff's brother-in law, was 'examined at considerable length, from which it appeared that he had taken an active part in the legal proceedings in the case of Brings ; but he stated that he merely acted as the plaintiff's friend, and under the directions of the defendant, his sole object being to forward the matter. . It was shown that the defendant did not live far from the plaintiff, and that a notice was placed on his former residence showing where ho had gone. Mr. PARRY, in his address to the jury, contended that the defendant, by the course he had adopted, had placed the plaintiff in a position to renew his claim against Briggs, as the witness referreil to was still absent; and that it could be renewed . now with a reasonable proba bitty of success; that Mr. Driver was the agent of the plaintiff •in the matter in question, and had transacted, and consequently knew all about the proceedings, and that, if any mistakes had occurred, they were clearly attributab!c to him, and to no one else. Great difficulty had been experienced in commu nicating with Mr. Driver ; and as he was an attorney, and bad acted as Mr. Smith in the case, some latitude was allowed him by the defendant, and because he had acted erroneously was the defendant to be blame d ? Mr. Walker, the defendant's clerk, gave evidence con firmatory of the defence set up. • Mr. WATSON having replied, Lord DENMAN summed' up. He considered that the defendant was not free from blame, and that he might to have known that the application to Mr. Justice Wight man, at chambers, would be of no avail, at the strict rules of the Court could not be departed from. He left it to the jury to say whether the plaintiff was or was no: entitled to damages, and, if so, the amount. The jury found for the plaintiff—Damages, 30/. The Ceurt will sit in bane') at Westminster, according to notice, at twelve o'clock precisely, on Thursday, the 17th instant. _COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Dec. 15. EAGER. U. GRIM WOOD. • This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a market gardener at Blz,,lcheath, to recover compensation in damages for the seduction of his daughter by the defendant. Mr. Prenticiappeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Hum phrey for the defendant. Mr. PRENTICE stated the following as the facts of the case:—The defendant carried on business as a pctato salesman at Greenwich and paid his addresses to the daughter of th e plaintiff, Mary Ann Eager. His ad dresses were accepted • ho was treated at the hou s e o f the plaintiff as th e Future husband of his daughter, and numerous visits were paid between the partim Upon one of these occasions the defendant effected the rain of the plaintiff's daughter; from that time the visits of the defendant became less frequent than formerly, and in the course of a few months the plaintiff's daughter was delivered of a child in her father's house; the child died, and the young woman was indicted for the murder of her infant, and tried at the Old Bailey and acquitted. Repeated appli cations had been made to the defendant for some assist. ance, but he had refused to render any, even upon the trial at the Old Bailey, and had it not been for the kindness of some of her friends, the young woman would not have had the assistance of counsel at the trial. -The Learned Counsel concluded an impassioned appeal.to the jury, by calling the following witnesses:— Mr. Claxton, who said that the sister-in-law of the plaintiff hal often seen the defendant at the house of the plaintiff, and upon these occasions he always treated her niece with kindness. Cross•examined by Mr. HumrnaEv—Her niece was confined on the 26th of June, 1845, she was tried on the 18th of August upin the indictment for the murder. Mary Ann Eager, examined by Mr. PRENTICE—I became first acquainted with the defendant about Ja nuary, 1844, by 'walking upon the hill. I never went to the shop of the defendant for my father. The de fendant made a promise of marriage to me soon after I became acquainted with him. Deendant often came to my father's house. I frequently went to his house. Up.ni these occasions hil aunt was present. He paid his addresses to me for nearly a twelvemonth. It was in the AULUITaII of 1844 that the defendant had connexion with me. It was in the.summer-house of my father's garden, a day or two after Christmas-day, and upon that occasion he renewed his former promises of marriage to me. It took place betwee n e i g h t and nine o ' clock in the evening. , Defendant came to see me after it took place, but not ,as frequently as before. He ceased to visit me about three months after the time of our con nexion. He has not given me any money to pay my expenses. I was ill fur some time after my confinement. I was in Nen - gate for abut a month. Cross examined by Mr. HumeitnEv—l am twenty years of age next birth-day. I never kept company with anybody else. I knew a young man of 'the name of James. Ido not know his other name. I kneW him for three months. We walked out . together twice.. I was then sixteen years of age. °I know him by his bringing meal to my l a th er 'shouse. I had connexion three or four times with the defendant after the first time in the summer-house. By a juror —I never told the.deferiant that I was in Vie family- way. biro. Winter std that she had attended at the house of Eager, had done washing, and had also lodged the children dt r:ng the time of the illness of his daughter. Mr. Hatch, surgeon, was called, who said that he attended Mary Ana E ig‘r after her confinement. He saw the child ; it was dead when he saw it. In his opinion it was a fully-grown child. By the LORD CUEEF BAnos—l am not aware of any indication by which I car. judge whether the child was a six oe seven months' one. By Air. PRENTICE—It certainly was not a six months child. Cross-examined by Mr. lIUMPHREY—It was a full grnwn Tue LORD CRIEL•' Banox—Then there is an end to the case. rnENTICE—i apprehen], my Lord, that it is not. The action is not only against the defoadant as father of the 'child, but for having seduced the daughter of the plaintiff. The LORD CHIEF BARON—I think an action cannot lie except it can be proved that the plaintiff has suf fered damage by the loss of the services of the seduced party. Mr. ritimenarf then addressed the jury on the part of the defendant, and contended that there was no evi dence against the defendant. The medical adviser had stated positiiely that the child was not a six months' one. The witness herself stated that the connexion took place about Christmas-day. She was confined upon the 26th of June. The defendant could not, therefore, be the father of the child. The Loan CIIIEF BARON—There is no evidence at all to go to the jury; the question which the jury would have to decide was, whether the defendant was the father of the child. The jury immediately returned a verdict for the de , fondant. RICHARDSON V. CARMICHAEL. In this case Mr. Wordsworth appeared for the plain tiff, and Mr. Martin and Mr. l'hipson for the defendant. This was an action brought to recover the sum of 231. 16s. 63., bring the amount due for maps, books, and stationery, supplied for the use of the Boulogne-sur-Mer and St. Omer Railway. The plaintiff was a bookseller and stationer, carrying on business in Cornhill ; the defendant, Sir James Car michael, Bart., was one of the promoters, and also a director of the company. Witnesses were called to prove the attendance of the defendant at the various meetings of the company, and the delivery of the goods in question. It appeared, upon cross•examiriatioa of some of the witnesses, that some of the goods were supplied prior to the time of the de fendant's connexion with the company, and his being register( d as such. The LORD Curer BARON said that there was no doubt but that the defendant knew of the delivery of the goods in question, they being used at the meetings of the company. Those, however, which were delivered previous to the registration of the defendant as a direc tor or promoter, be could not be held liable for. Thejury therefore returned a verdict for plaintiff— Damages 151. Leave svas given to the defendant to move to enter a nonsuit, if the Court should be of opinion that there was no evidence to go to the jury to fix the • liability of the defendant. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT OLD COURT. henry Eteen pleaded guilty to a burglary in the house ofJohn Sari, and was sentenced to ten years' transpor• tation. John Slayer pleaded guilty to forging an order for the payment of at., with intent to defraud James Corss, and was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment. Timctliy Hceley, who had been out on bail, surrendered to take his trial for a violent assault on his wife, on the 22d of October. Ann lleeley stated that since 1833 she had kept the Red Lion, in Fleet-lane, and that in March last she married the defendant, being then a widow, and possessed of 1,3001. or 1,400/, but had ever since been treated with great brutality, and was in fear of her life. On the day in question her husband had been out with a person named Kendall, then in his employment, and on his re turn dashed her to the ground with great force, turned her out of the bar, and installed the woman who came back with him in her place. The witness was subjected to a long cross-cc/Amine= tion by Mr. CLARKScN. Thomas Fuller, a brother of the prosecutrix, stated, that ashe was getting into bed o n th e n i g ht o f th e 21st of October, he heard his sister's voice cr yi n g out for assistance. On going down stairs' ' he found her lying helpless in the passage,"wh ere s h e had been throw n by a blow on the face.' Having taken her up, and while about carrying her up stairs, she was again struck, sad knocked out of his arms with so much violence as to reider her insensible. Arr. CLARKSON, for the defendant, contended that the eanie of the - mischief was Mrs. lleele3's intemperate hatits. The fullowinz evidence was offered for the defence Joseph Guodby, waiter of the Red Lion, proved that. the separation had taken place, and that OR the day in question the prosecutrix had returned to get her clothes, being at the time in a state of intoxication, and while in the hous3 :he was guilty of such outrageous conduct, that he was obliged to send for his master, who, at the time, was living away from the place. Several other witnesses stated that the prosecutrix was intoxicated at the time of the commission of the alleged assault, and the prisoner had merely endeavoured to get her to bed quietly. The jury returned ,a Yerdict of GUilty. The prisoner was then sentenced to two months' im prisonment in Giltspur-street Coippter, and to enter into his own reco , iliz thee for. 500 L, audio find two sureties for 50/ each, to keep the peace for three years. ' ' to 251., and in default of payment the defendant must be committed for three months to icngston Gaol. George Paul Fitt was brought before Mr. Seeker, charged with obtaining three several sums of money, amounting to 2/. 145., under false pretences, from Dist bi th Ann Cay. The complainant stated that her husband was a dealer in timber, and that, about three months azo, he was con victed at the sessions of receiving stolen goods, and sentenced to two years imprieenment in Brixton House of Correction ; that on the occasion of his trial a Mr. Ralph Games was employed as his solicitor •, and that, subsequently to his conviction, she sent for the prisoner, who she was led to believe was was an attorney usually employed in defending prisoners at the police courts and sess i ons . She exhibited the papers relating to her 'husband's case to the prisoner, and, after perusing them, he remarked that Mr. Games had managed her hus band's business in a scandalous manner, and added, that if she gave him (the prisoner) two sovereigns, he would obtain his release from gaol with as little delay as possible. She handed him a sovereign, he promisin g to draw up a petition to th e H ome S ecretary on t h e subject. He then went away, but returned the same day, and told her that he bad had an interview with three barristers, to whom he represented the facts con cerning her husband's case, and that they advised that a writ should be preferred against Mr. Games for the manner in which he had acted in her husband's de fence, adding, that the expenses attending the process would be 10s. 6d. She accordingly paid him that sum, for which he gars his receipt (produced), and on sub sequent occasions the prisoner called upon her again and induced her to advance him other sums of money, for the purpose, as he asserted, of filing a declaration and adopting other proceedings against Mr. Games ; and, in order to obtain money from her, he informed her that if she did not proceed in the business after the writ had been served upon Mr. Games, judgment would go by default, and the latter person would bo in a position to seize upon her goods. At a subsequent interview the prisoner said that it was necessary for complainant to appear at the Rolls' Court, in order to make her affidavit in tha action, and that then she would be in a situation to make a seizure on Mr. - Games's goods, unless he con sented to Ray back the money he had obtained in such an unscrupulous manner while conducting her husband's defence at the sessions. She accordingly accompanied the prisoner and another man to some court in Chancery lane, and on that occasion he demanded of her 55., and a further sum of 2s. for the stranger, wham he raid he had brought to witness the transaction. lle also asserted that Mr. Games, upon being appr;sed of the proceedings that were taken against him, had made an offer of restitution, if the complainant consented to forego further proceedings. He (the prisoner) called on her again, and exacted a further sum of 11. 55., to complete the petition Fpraying for her husband's release, but this sum she refused, and tinder the supposition that she had been defrauded of the previous sums of money she advanced to the prisoner, she set about an inquiry, and ascertained that he had neither sent in a petition, nor had be adopted any proceedings whatever against Mr. Games. The complainant added, that sinee her husband's incarceration in gaol she was much reduced in circumstances, and, in order to raise the money for the prisoner s she was compelled to pledge various articles ; a fact of which he was aware at the time. Mr. Hill, a solicitor, gave evidence of his having searched the lists for November and December at the Writ-office, Queen's Bench, and that there was no pro cess filed by the _prisoner against Mr. Games, as had been asserted by. the former in his statement to the complainant. The complainant's daughter handed in a paper, which she received from the prisoner, and which purported to be a writ of inquiry for damages, addressed to Mr. Games. Mr. Roberts, who conducted the case against the pri soner, said that there were other cases of a similar description against him, and that it would be necessary to remand him, in order to have the attendance of persons interest-A. 7 . • The prisoner sa id t h a t th a t w as whatife wanted, with a view to have the prof: ssional assistance of a barrister; and that it would be found Ile had faithfully performed the business he bad undertaken. The prisoner WAS then remanded until Wednesday. CLERKENWELL. George IVillmt,i',;llolad been remanded several times on the attempt to murder Susannah Haines, at a cottage in Paradise -terrace, Liverpool-road, Islington, was again brought up yesterday morning for final exa mination. Mrs. Raines being now fortunately out of danger, although in such a state of debility as to be scarcely able to 'ewe her room. The evidence ot the injured woman's husband, and of the police and others, was again taken at length, and several new points elicited; the most important were, that for the purpose of fixing the identity of the prisoner as being on the promises, the constable produced a hat which had been found near Mrs. Haines's cottage, and that the prisoner had frequently exclaimed, when asked what his motives could be for making such a murderous attack upon a woman with whom he had been always on the most friendly terms—" She knows the reason herself, I. did it for to have revenge and satisfaction;" and also that he said to the husband, " I intended doing this the night before, and would have done so most assuredly had you not come home so soon." The evi dence of the surgeon who attended her was taken at considerable length, and it appeared from it that Alre. Haines had received no less than five incised wounds, as well as several wounds on the head, and further that for a considerable time after the injuries had been in flicted he entertained serious apprehensions of her death. The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, said he should reserve it for the present, and complained that he was unable to procure professional assistance; and that if sent for trial at the present sessions at the Old Bailey, he would labour under the same disadvan tage. He maintained the utmost apparent indifference during the whole of the investigation, and showed con siderable tact in cross-examining the witnesses. After the depositions had been completed, the pri soner was again brought up, and fully committed t o t a k e his trial at the next Central Criminal Court Sessions, on the charge of feloniously assaulting Susannah Haines with an intent to murder her. THE LATE MYSTERIOUS MURDER IN FRANCE. We ment - oned a few days back the murder of two young girls at Albi, umkr very mysterious circum stances. The perpetrator of this crime has since been discovered by a curious chain of circumstantial evidence. It appears tli t in the chamber of one of the girls was found a shirt stained with blood. It was by nasens of this slight indication that the Isw-officers of the Crown have succeeded in eeming to a knowledge of the murderer. The Procureur du Roi and the Juge d'lnstruction, seeing this article, conceived it very likely that the mur derer had slept with one of the girls, and getting up in the eight had cut her throat whilst asleep The depth of the wound in the neck of one of them seemed to war rant this supposition. Be then, they supposed, entered the room of the sister, and, after a struggle, succeeded in cutting her , throat also. The murderer then, finding his shirt stained with blood, came to the determination to take it off, and in his agitation probably left it behind him. The shirt, the Procureur du Roi remarked, was new, never having been washed. It was not, therefore, unlikely that it had been lately purchased, and in all probability in the town. lie immediately summoned to his office all the persons at Albi that sold ready-made shirts, and, sub mitting the article in question to them individually, in quired if they could remember that they had sold it lately, and to whom. One woman, well known in the place for her probity and respectability, declared that she had some recollection of having sold, a week before, a shirt of about the texture of that produced. to a man who appeared to have been a soldier. What made her recollect the circumstance was, that a young workwoman, having been employed in making the shirt, had inserted one of the wristbands with the wrong side out, and, in addition, had forgotten to place a second buttonhole in front. The soldier had perceived this last-named fault, and had got a second one made, which, being worked by another person, was better done than the other one. If the shirt submitted to her, the woman said, was that of which she spoke, the tokens. just alluded to would be easily perceptible. On examination, the marks alluded to were all found to be exact, and there could be no doubt that she had sold tha shirt to the murderer of the two girls. The woman added that she recollected also that the man bad said that he had been a drummer, and had spoken of lodging at the astberge of a man named Gesse. The latter being brought forward, deposed that a man had for some short time lodged in his house, but he did not know his name. He also declared that the man in question had returned home ex ceedingly late on the night of the 27th of November, which was the date of the murder. The question next to be solved was, who was this man ? A workman came forward, and stated that he had known him for some time ; that his name was Carcasses ; that he had been a drummer in the army, and he generally re sided at Puylaurens, in the department of the Tarn. A corroborative proof of the identity of the man spoken of with the murderer was afforded by the deposition of a trumpeter of the 21st Light Infantry, who declared that he had contrived to get out of barracks at half-past one, on the night of the 27th, and had gone to the lodging of the two girls. When he knocked, cue of them told him that he could not enter, as the drummer, whom he bad seen a few days before with them, was inside, and they could not admit any one that night. The trumpeter then withdrew. The chain of evidence appearing com plete, measures were then taken to arrest Carcasses, and he was taken prisoner at Puylaurens. One of his boots was found to be stained with blood. He had in his possession a sum of 345 f., for which he could not satisfactorily account, and had also in his room some handkerchiefs bearing the initials of the girls: He was interrogated at great length by the Procureur du Roi, and, being unable to account fir- the manner in which he spent the night of November 27, refused to answer any other questions. He was then delivered over to the cus tody of the gendarmes, who locked him carefully up. 'They, however, were so imprudent as to leave him by himself, in place of keeping him ccnetently in view. Thd consequence was that, when they entered his room in the morning, they found he harl banged himself with a handkerchie.—Galignanes Atesseager.

The United States ship Shark has just been re paired here, at an expense of about 14,000 dollars, and sails shortly for the Oregon. Her Britannic Majesty's steamer Cormorant, 1,000 tons, 3 guns, arrived here a few weeks since, and after a stay of a few days departed, for no one knows where. It is generally. believed, how ever, that she left for Puget's Sound, expecting to meet Admiral Seymour there, in the Collingwood. Reports of fortifications and military stores have reached us hero, us connected with the Admiral's visit to the north. The utmost mystery is now made by English officers of the movements of their vessels this way. The steamer being the first that had ever visited these islands, created a great sensation among the native population. Just previous to the high duties upon wines and spirits, enough of both were imported under the present scale to have produced 50,000 dollars duties.

On an appointed night they met, and Lussac undertook to enter the house 'whilst the other , kept watch outride. A few moments after Lussac went in Sudreau heard piercing cries, and then all was silent. Lussac soon came • out, bringing with him the money, which Sudreau and he divided equally. The next morning Lussac went to the neighbours, and declared' that having, as usual, gone to his work, he found the door of his mis tress's house open, and, on his going in, discovered that she and the servant-girl were lying in theirl beds bathed in blood, the skulls of both being fractured. The gen darmerie being informed of what had taken place, a minute examination of the premises ensued, and the prints of a shoe being plainly 'perm ivied on the floor, and something in Lussac's manner being remarked as sus picious, his shoo was applied to the. mark on the floor, and found to fit exactly: Lussac was arrested, and as Sudrean was known to intimate with him, hews also • tdcen up. Being pressed hard with questions, he at last confessed his participation in the crime, declaring Lussac t) have been the principal.

The rabbi of Cracow has had an audience of the Aus trian Commissioner, and petitioned that the Israelites might be released from these charges; but the Commis sioner replied, that it would be difficult to grant his application, as Cracow now forms part of Galicia, and partial exceptions and privileges cannot be accorded.

Chaplin and Horne, the railway carriers, was indicted with stealing, on the 12th of last month, a bale of silk, the property of his masters, of the value of 1261. From the statements of counsel, and the evidence adduced, it appeared that on the day in question the prisoner, accompanied by a lad named Fry, fetched the silk in question from the S , uth-Western Railway ter minus.. The bale was directed to a house in Bunhill-row, and the prisoner, on his way there, as it was alleged, purposely left his parcel book at a chemist's, where he had to call, in order that he might get rid of Fry, by sending him for it. This was done, and in the interim the bale was missed from the cart. According to the evidence of a man named West, the cart of the prosecutors had been fol lowed by a can and three men from the railway station up to the time when the boy Fry was sent for the parcel book, and that' immediately upon his leaving, the silk ,was put into the van. and the men drove off with it. Mr. Ballantine appeared for the prosecution. Mi. Ilunni.usrortE was counsel for the prisoner, and contended. that he ought to be acquitted on the ground that . West was a witness unworthy of credit The jury acquitted the prisoner. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. • The two brothers Frost (n ot Ross, as was stated in a former report by mistake), who stood remanded to this day, the one for stealing, and the other for unlawfully receiving a coat, the property of a gentleman named Robinson, from the stables of Mr. Guy, of Earl-street, Blackfriari, where the elder brother, James Frost, was ozeasmnally employed as helper, were fully committed fur trial by Alderman Moon and Alderman Gibbs. • James Gandy, and Mary Gandy, his daughter, were charged before Mr. Alderm an M oon , the fi rst with steal ing, and the other with receiving a valuable ring and three sovereigns, the property of her master, Mr. Taylor, of the Britannia public house, Golden lane. It appeared that the master's suspicions, upon missing a quantity of property, were drawn upon the female prisoner, by hearing from a friend that her father, who was out of employment, had been seen with a number of sovereigns in his gessession. The girl confessed to stealing the ring and three sovereigns, but the whole amount of Mr. Taylor's loss, in sovereigns only, is forty pounds. They wire remanded to Thursday, for the purpose of giving the officers time to procure the attendance of an important witness. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. _ _ Richard Hawkins was charged with throwing a boy over the gallery of the Queen's Theatre, Tottenham street, Tottenham Court-road. 'Wm. English said he was sitting in the f:ont seat of the gallery on Monday night, and behind him the prisoner and two girls. In the course of the night a quarrel arose between him and the prisoner, because he had been leaning back on the seat behind him, and about a quarter. past twelve o'clock,. as complainant was rising to leave the house, while his back was towards the pit, the prisoner struck at him and knocked him over the front of the gallery into the pit, a height of twenty-five or thirty feet. _ William Webber, who was with the complainant in the theatre, corroborated the evidence which he had given. The prisoner said the girls that sat on the same seat with him, and also the complainant were all strangers to him, but as the complainant persisted in lying back against the girls' knees, and thereby annoying them; he interfered, and requested him to desist, when the com plainant would not desist he went out and brought up the officer, who, after cautiining him, felt it necessary to remove the complainant and his companion into the back seats. lie returned and swore he would wait•for trim (the prisoner) that night. At the conclusion of the per formance the complainant got up, and, planting his back against the front rails, struck him several blows. Prisoner was aided by-his friends. Ho (the prisoner) had not struck the other at all. The only way in which the fall could be accounted for was, that the rails, which were high on each side, were very low in the centre of the gallery, and that the complainant, slipping his back along the rails following him, had lost his balance, when he came upon the descent of the rails, where they were not more than six inches high. .He had not struck the complainant at al!, and interfered only at the request of tho girls t 3 protect them. Myers, the officer of the theatre, said he had been compelled by the conduct of the complainant to his cons pinions to remov e th em t o diff eren t sea t s . H e saw them annoying the girls behind them, and also the prisoner, who was very q det all the night, but because he had brought up him (the officer) the complainant swore that he would mark the prisoner before the night ended. Mr. LONG said the evidence of the complainant was entirely contradicted by that given on the part of the prisoner, and the complainant was certainly proved to have been the aggressor. On that account ho could not believe that the prisoner had intended to throw the complainant into the pit, or even that he had done any ,thing to cause it ; and therefore he must dismiss the case. SOUTHWARK. William Francis, an elderly . and respectable looking man, was charged %Eh conveying spirits exceeding two gallons, without a permit, whereby he incurred a penalty of 1001. Blyford, an Excise olfic:r, stated that between seven and eight o'clock that morning he met the defendant in Free school-street. Horselydown, carrying a bag. He sto;.pd him, and, on examining the bag, found it con tained a large bladder of illicit spirits. lie took the defendant into custody, he having no permit. The defendant said, as he was proceeding into town that morning, he met a person with whom he was ac quainted, and he asked him to carry the bag and its con tents to Whitecross street, and promised to reward him for his trouble. lle added that he was not aware that he was acting contrary to law at the time. Mr. SECKEII said, the full penalty was 100 L, but he should exercise the power given to him, and mitigate it XI 4 .IS'U C C Dividend Name of Company. per Annum, A:bion ............ • • illiance Brit. and For.

Edward Lock, alias Lauglitan, alias Locfslcg, who stands charged with stealing 95L from a cash-bolc on the premises of Messrs. Thoznas Martin and Co., linen drapers in the Whitechapel-road, was again brought up on remand before Mr. Yardley. The robbery was committed, on the night of the 27th ult., when a cash-box was taken out of a desk in the counting house, the bottom of which was cut away. The box was afterwards found in a waterhutt on the premise:. The papers and securities it contained were undisturbed, but the money was all gone. The thief who committed the robbery must have concealed himself in the cellars till the inmates retired to rest, and then obtained admis sion to the counting-house by cutting out a pane of glass. After the robbery was effected the shop door and street door were broken open, and the thief escaped in that direction. The evidence against the prisoner, who was formerly in the employ of the prosecutors, was entirely of a circumstantial description. fir the prosecution, asked f or anot h er re mand,lir a P n e d li s l a a i ni d the police had obtained a clue which might lead to important disclosures. Mr. Vesey, for the prisoner, opposed this proposal. Mr. YARDLEY said there was a case of strong suspicion against the prisoner, and he was very reluctant to let him go at large. lie could not, however, continually go on remanding the prisoner without evidence. He finally consented to accept of bail for the prisoner, himself in 501. and one surety in the same amount, for his appear ance on Monday next. The Right Hon.

A s a proof of the extraordinary low pric e of this valuable commodity, we can state that an individual purchased a cod fish, weighing between eight and nine pounds, on Saturday for 40., and on its being opened for the pur pose of cleansing its inside, there were . found twenty two herrings therein, some of them remarkably large, and exhibiting signs of animation.— Cambrian.

Travers andethe close of last year this firm imported a considerable quantity of French plums in the ornamented paper boxes made purposely for that description of fruit, part of which were allowed to pass at the Custom-house in the usual manner, while 45 cases were stopped for duty upon the- boxes. The article being a perishable one, Messrs. Travers lost no time in memorializing the Commissioners of Customs, which memorial, after two subsequent application s and a delay of a fortnight, was at length attended to, and the goods were ordered to be released. This delay, however, involved a loss of 9( 1. (the fruit having been sold immediately on its ar rival to buyers, who afterwards cancelled their bargains), and a claim for compensation was ac cordingly preferred. This claim was met by a direct refusal, and an appeal to the Commissioners of the Treasury produced a similar result. Compelled thus to put up with a loss arising from en avowed error on the part of the Custom-house, the sufferers, with a view to prt tact themselves and the trade for the future, peti tioned that some definite order might be made, by which they might be guided in th e i r o p era tions, and which would prevent a repetition of such occurrences. To this p e tition no answer was returned, an d i t i s now alleged French fruit by Messrs. Travers that some p ac kages of . have this year again Essen stopped under precisely similar circumstances. In the absence of explanations, the statement places the conduct of the Commissioners in a very unfavourable light ; but, discreditable as it is, there is reason to fear that many analogous instances daily occur in the various minor departments of public business, which, in like manner, are carried off with high-handsd indifference, Ili the belief that the details are too insignificant for the sufferers to succeed in bring ing them into notice.— Times.
