The testator was a penurious man an eccentric man. In 1829, he purchased the 011erenshaw estate, consisting of 170 acres; for which he paid 8,000/. In 1830, he retired front business, and went to reside on the property, and continued so to do until his death. The mind ache testator was swayed by two metives, penury end os tentation. He was at the same time kind to the poor, but here his love of money showed itself, for though engaging large numbers of them when out of employ, he would, ne vertheless, give them the smallest wages he could. The tett tater was in the habit of corresponding with his relatives in London, that is, with the father ref the present plaintiff, and his family, and on one occasion he went with them to see the " Lions," such as the Parliament Houses, the Opera House, leo. It would appear that, having risen from a humble sta• that, his chief object was to found a family name, and net being, in the year 1839, married, and his brother, the defendant, having only three daughters, whilst the plaintiff, young Mr. Thornhill, had two or three sons, he became attentive to him, and in a letter to the father of the plaintiff, he speaks of Mr. Walter as " hi. good son Walter:" he also mentions that his brother has only daughters, and if he (the testator) did not marry, he should like to show some respect to the name of Thornhill The testator belonged to a religious sect called "The New Methodist Connection." who have sonic peculiar notions as to the world beyond the grave. and like the Puri tans and Covenanters in ft trmer times, are very strict in their religious notions. In 1839 the testator married a Miss Bar low, the daughter of a widow lady, at whose diath she weuld inherit near 10,0001. Quarrels t'rose between them; while just a year after the marriage a charge eats made by one of the female domestics against her master of an attempt at rape. The deceased always protested his innocence, and attributed the making of the charge to a con spiracy between his wife and the girl. It would appear nit settlement was made at the marriage, and all the testator got was a bad debt, in the shape of an old note for 300/., which Mrs. Barlow, knowing his penurious habits, and that if any body could get the money he would, handed to him, and Ira did squeeze out of the party 1001. On one occuir.n the lady having a legacy of 2501. left to her, she, accom panied by her husband, went to receive it. She signed her name to the receipt paper, but the husband refused to sign his own until he had got the money. She contended it yeas hers, he took the contrary side of the qaestion, and a scene of recrimination tosk place, which ended in her scratching her name through, and they left without the money. In consequence of these disagreements, the wife, orr two occasions, left her husband's home, and only re turned shortly before his death, which took place on the 7th of May, 1845. On the 25th of M trch, 1845, he made his will, giving the estate in question to the lessor of the plnntiff. He also left a large sum for the buileing of a chapel, and made his brother, the defendant, a residuary legatee, which in effect was giving him the bulk of his pro perty, but cutting off his wife with 54 ; alleging in his will her misconduct towards him as the reason why he had done so. The intention of doing something for the plaintiff was shown to have been in the testator's mind long before snaking his wile for in a letter written shortly aft-r his marriage he says, he has not "much hopes of a family, and in failure of one I do intend to think well of you." In that letter his love of osten:ion b r ok e ou t, f or he stares his house is tarty-two yards low, and in order to give it an im posine appearance the stables were in the middle, and to save in taxes no room had more than one window. Mr. Humfrey then read several letters from the testator to his relation in town. We insert the fellowing as showing his political opinions ;—" As respects politics, we in this country bel eve that Peel has been called to the head of the National Assembly to rescue it from total destruction, which ten Years of bad policy and misgovernment have welt nigh effected. As for Cobden, I was on the hustings at Stock port when he first offered himself a candidate for the bit rough, but lost his election, my brother being returning officer, as mayor. He (Cobden) is very malicious, and of fiend-like passions, anti therefore if he should do any good it will be by misadventure.—( Loud laughter.) You ask if there is not a deal of distress ? I answer in the affirmative. How must is be otherwise when neither our home or foreign trade are protected. Look at the home trade of lace, silk, and gloves. By the admission of French articles of this descrm tion, those mech inks who used to earn 211 s. now get but Cs., and not employatent for them at that. Woodstock, in Ox fordshire, for gloves, is quite ruined ; Coventry for ribbon ; Nottingham for lace ; and look at Spitalfields and other places for silk; and in Sheffield, Kussi n cutlery and German saws are sold at 30s. per cwt. under English. Now trade is bank rupted agriculture must be so toe—Aeierican cheese at sd. . - .. - - ..... -..—...... ... -... libUseiMlifers . Who hai4 rent and taxes to pay. Wonl !it be right to have all household ra out of home to live in elves and under hedges? Nt•ed we a,l{ how a river is dried up when its sources are dried away?" The Learned Counsel then went on to detail the circums , ances under which the will was witnessed, and to remark upon the insanity that was intended to be set up, citing cases to show, however eccentric or even insane a man might be on any particular point, yet, if he was sane with reference to the disposition he was making of his property, the will would stand good. The great body of evidence adduced on the part of the plaintiff vent to show that, however eccentric the testator might be in some matters, such as believing in dreams and the interpretation thereof, the re-appearing on earth of the spirits of' the departed, &c., yet, in the main, he was a shrewd, sensible, keen man. Mr. COCKBURN then proceeded to open the case for the defendant, with a view to prove the insanity of the testator, and certainly a more extraordinary case we never remember to have heard; but the principal delusion under which the testator appeared to have suffered was, that no woman could he chaste, and that his wife in particular was abominable ; and all this, so far as the evidence went, was utterly without foundation—one moment accusing her of conspiracy, incest, and adultery, and in the next writing of her in the most affectionate and endearink terms. He was exceedingly jealous of his feMale servants being contaminated, and would discharge a labourer if he even looked towards the !liaise. The girls would take advantage of this delusion under which he suffered, and would, when he was about the premises, set up a scream, upon which he would immediately take off his shoes and run round to the door to save them. He was curious, also, in his way of dealing with his labourers ; he would make them all work in a line, and would call them to work or to rest by the sound of a horn. As to his conductin the house, he would get up, light the fires, and make his servants' breakfast, and if a fire wanted blowing he would have all the tires in the house blown at the same time ; anti so with warming the beds, and when the pan was brought down he would feel the bottom of it, and if he thought it felt too warm he would send the servant up again to renew her work, saying he would not have his ctials wasted. On , one occasion he made his wife sit with him all night long in he coal-cellar ; on another he mistook a log of wood f.ir a devil and would have it shot at. At another time he said he was beset with twelve devils, be accordingly went out, and having fired a pistol twelve times. he came back paci tied, saying he hail killed all the devils Mr. Cockburn, in his address, read an immense number of letters, showing his opinion of women and of his wife, but the details were too disgusting and horrible to be given, and could only be ascribed to the mental delusion under which he was suffering. At the conclusion of Me. Cockburn's address he proceeded to call his witnesses. and shortly afterwards Mr. Humfrey informed the Court and jury he should trouble them no further. He could not conceal from himself that the case opened by his friend, and proved by the documents he had been permitted to see, would lead the jury to believe there was general insanity ; therefore, considering the proper attestation of the will might also be doubtful, he was content not to ask a verdict at their bands. Before he did that he begged to make an observe ' tion as to Mrs. Thornhill he wished to say, from the evi dence and all he had heard, that the testator's conduct with regard to her was a perfect delusion, and he trusted that in the mind of every honourable man who might read or hear of this case no ground of reproach would remain as to her conduct; it was his duty so to say, arid lie hoped it would be a satisfact on to her feelings that he made that apology for speaking of her before in a manner which only arose from his not hearing the case. The CIIIF JUSTICE said he thought the Learned Counsel took a very proper vi , •Nv of the case, whilst the observations he had made were handsome and honourable to his feelings. A verdict was then taken for the defendant. A knit was found near the canal si le. When arrested, he asked the police-constable to go to his mother, and tell her not 'o fret about it. Thomas Highton, surgeon, stated that he was called in at about half-past six. Deceased was in a chair. The wound in her throat caused her death. She could not have spoken after ir, fur it severed her windpipe, and must have been dune by a pevon standing behind. The prisoner was found Guilty, wl.en Mr. Justice CourstAx passed the awful sentence of the law upon him, that he be hung, bolding out no hopes of mercy. The prisoner remained unmoved (luting the trial. He was spoken off by the witnesses as a mild inoffensive man, while the deceased was often violent in her conduct towards him, and once struck him with a poker. WESTERN CIRCUIT.— Extter, March 21. NISI PRIUS COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron ROLFE and a Special Jury.) BREACH OF PROMISE:ELLICE V. FENWICE. This was an acti:m brought by the plaintiff, who is a lady forme! by rending at Teignmouth, in this county, against the defendant, for a breach of p-omise of marriage. Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Stone appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Crowder, Q.C., Mr. Haywood, Q.C., and Mr. Montague Smith for the defence. Mr. STONE having opened the pleading., !lir. GREENWOOD stated the facts of the case to the jury. He then called Mtss Awelie Longdie examined by Mr. SToxE.—I know lie plaintiff and the defiaulant. Iti the autumn of last year I was lodging with Mrs. Ellice at Teignmouth. She was a widow. about thirty-five years //f age. She bad one daughter. aged eight years, and had four children of Mr. and Mrs Seward under her charge. Mrs. Ellice was introduced to the defendant by Mr. Hayes. The derendant lived at Veal',. Hatch, and had a cottage at Comhe, close to Padden'. farm house. He is about thirty. He appeared te be a man of wealth ; kept horses, dogs, a dog-cart, groom, a yacht with five me., a phaeton, also a gamekeeper; he rented-a manor also. said he had a house i.t town, a barouche, an estate at :Hay. line, also one at Croydon. He came to Mrs. Ellice's daily: • some days many times. We often went out in his yacht, invitation. myself, the plaintiff; and Mr. amt Mrs. Hayes. I remember the Teignmouth races. On the second day e both went. I and Mrs. Ellice walked to to the course - 0 ith the defendant. The race- cour.e is close to the town. Ile was particularly attentive to Mrs. Ellice, and introduced her to his brother-in-law, Mr. Mars-on. I saw the defendant of the next day. He invited my&df and Mtn. Ellice to g , to 'Torquay. We went about two in a hi r , carriage. He was exceedingly attentive to the plai till. We raurrnd in the evening. On the , next he callA, and.said he was going to London. On that tkiy I dined at Mrs. Hayes's. (In my return I found Mr. Feu% ick there in the drawing-room with the plaintiff. I thought my company was not desired, and I went into the next room, which was my bed-room. There was a door com municaling into the drawing-room. There is a table, a dressing table, next the door. I stood at that end There heard the defendant speak. It was in a loud t,me. I heard him say, " will you have me?" She said, " Your family will think you foolish." He interrupted her, saying, " Mv family have nothing to do with it—will you have me?" I did not hear what answer she made. Soon after this I went into the room. The defendant had his arm round Mrs. Ellice's waist. He said, you see Mrs. Ellice is afraid to sit next me now. He remained about half an hour, and then left. He called again the next day. and from that time he came daily. He made her various presents —a writing-desk and Bible, which he said had belonged t r his deceased sister, and much valued, some French slioners, gold studs, marble vase, gloves. and daily presents of 'French flowers and wine. I have heard him t.II Mrs. Ellice that he had desired his yacht-men to call on her daily for orders, which they did, and she often gave them orders. The defendant spent most of his time at Mrs. lodgings. On the 24411 of September, which wes his birthday, he said to me that he had wished Mrs. Ellice to spend that day with him at his cottage alone, hut she had refused to do so on that day. We lunched with him on board his yacht, and then walked with him to the cottage. Tke children had been sent by him, with the nurse, to the cottage to spend the day, and Mr. Do Ans walked with us. The defendant's attentions to Mrs. Ellice were very particular on that day. On the next day we went in the yacht to Exmouth, and returned in the evening. During all this time the defendant's attentions were of that kind as if he considered himself engaged to Mrs. Ellice. I remember a Mr. Johnstone, the plaintiff's father, and his wife. On the 30th the defendant expressed his regret that he was engaged out to dinner. Showed Mr. Johnstone about the town, and arranged to go with him, his wife, and Mrs. Ellice, to Torquay the next day. They went in the defendant's pheeton, and Mrs. - Ellice sat by his side on the front s at, and Mr. and Mrs. Johns tone behind. In October I heard that it was arranged that Mrs. Ellice was to take the children of Mr. and Mrs. Seward to Cheltenham. This was on the 9,1 of October. The defendant said he was obliged to go to Exeter on busi ness, but hoped to get it over and go to Cheltenham with the plaintiff; it was also arranged that Lord, me, tied Mrs. .Johnstone, should go up to Exeter on the 3d and meet her. We went up and stopped at the Full Moon, where we were met by the defendant, who mid that he was sorry that he had been unable to go with Mrs. Ellice. He said he should to to meet. her at the railway station ; he did several times; but she did not come by the first train, by which he said he expected her. We dined together, and he ordered dinner to be prepared for the plaintiff in time for the last train. He told m.e that he was about to dismiss his housekeeper and •Iseva•.,A4., J1•111t, - sic turn Ma , e 11,1 toe gum studs. We returned t 9 Teigmnouth in his cartiage. He promised to dine with Mrs. Ellice the next day, but did not come. Toe next day there was a bill at Teigmnouth. The defendant called in the evening at six, and said he should not go the ball if he could help it, but should come again about ten. I went to the ball, where I again saw him. 1 asked him why he Intl not kept his appointn ent to (line, he said he had been at the barracks engaged with the colonel. He said the of ice. had been teasing him about his being a married man, but he did not car , for that. He said he had en engagement with the colonel the next day, but. should call on the plaintiff. He called three times, and it was arranged that Mrs. Johnstone, myself, and Mrs. Ellice should go on board the yacht the next day, which we did.. The defendant, on this and all ether occasions, behaved in a way he could not have done had he not considered himself art engaged person. He said he was going to Oxford on the 16th of October, and it WAN arrang d that we should go to Exeter to meet him. Mr. and Mrs. Johnstone were to return on the sane day to Dublin. They went, hut Mrs. Ellice did not, as she was ill. This was the 14th of Octt.b.r. Before he went away he give Mrs. Ellice a packet. Some time after this, about a fortnight, I saw the defendant in Exeter. I never saw him at Mrs. Ellice's after his return from Oxford. When I saw the defendant at Exeter I t , dd him that Mrs. Ellice had been . ill. He expressed great regret—he could not help it—that he had received some anonymous letters from Teignmouth, saying that his conduct had cau-ed her illness; that he was sorry he could not come down that day, as he was engaged. Des j ireiine --- t; give his love to her, and tell her so. I went back that dad•. After this t saw Mr. Downes, he was an intimate friend of the defendant. He came to Mrs. Eliice's. I was in the room with her. Some conversation passed, grid he left. I never after saw the defendant there. Mrs. Ellice remained at Teignm 'nth until November, and tlen left. t;ross-examined by Mr. CnowDEts—l had known the plain tiff for f tur . rears before July, at London, Cheltenham, and at Brighton. I began to reside with her in the September before she e ent to Teignmouth. This was at Cheltenham. In London she lived at my brother's. She had no employ ment at that time, nor had I. I afterwards went to Frank fort. %Vhtn I came back she engaged me as a subteacher under her, and she went to Teignmouth. We ladled just opposite the hotel. It is a narrow street. Mr. Renwick once gave me some gloves and a pencil-case, which he fist offered to Mrs. Ellice. Ido not know he was in the habit of always going out, in his yacht with ladies. After he was introduced to us he never went out without us. Mrs. Ellice had given him a present. [Here the Learned Counsel produced . a painted earthetiware figure of a widow, and asked the witness if that was the present. This created excess of laughter in the Court, in which the witness joined, and ad mitten she had seen such an image before, and believed it to be the same.] Mrs. Johnstone corroborated the evidence of the last wit ness in all particulars as to what took place after her (Mrs. Johnstone's) arrival at Torquay. The witness was cross-examined by Mr. Hayward At some length, bu , tie did ma in any way shake Ler testimony. Henry W. Hayes-1 reside at Teignmouth. I know both Vie plaintiff and the defendant. 1 have known the defendant ab ut two years. He keeps a yacht and lives as a gentle man of fortune. He has told me he has an estate in Hamp shire. He has awoken to me of the widow. I understood by this he meant Mrs. Ellice. He once said to me 'S he'd be d—d it he would not marry the widow." He said he had written to his sister, Mrs. Marston, about it. 1 have seen him since thi: , action was brought. I have beer examined by the a , torney on the other side, 'and am subpoenaed by both. I on, e heard him say ss that he had never written. There was no evidence agtirst him in handwriting. That he had suffered before, and a burnt child dreads the fire." I have heard him say that there was an action for breach of promise of marriage brought against him by a Miss La c y ; that he find compromised it for 1 , 000 /., and had paid 560/. for expenses. I hare some'imea heard him speak of Miss Wilson. - This was in January or February that he was 0)- :aged to her, ant meant to marry her. He showed me a pile of letters, and said they were hers. Mr. Cnowpttn adtressed the jury for th defence. He contended that there Has no ev'dence from which the jury could infer a solemn contract to marry, and that the pr,seut by the plaintiff to the defendant of the china image after ine must have felt that the defendant's attentiims had ceased, •huwett that she was rather incliked to treat the whole mat ter go a joke. Mr. Baron ROLFE having very minutely summed up the evidence 0 the jury. they immediately found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 560/. Mr. Crowder, Mr. Blu'Alltt,matvi.d FO M A r LE . C . ornish conclucti'd th e case for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Sergeant K inglake and Mr. Barstow that of the defendant. This was an action brought to recover compensation in damages tor slanderous words used by the defendant of and concerning the plaintiff: It appeared that th e pl a i nt i ff was the son of a clergyman, who had lived at Ki ngs b r i dge, and the defendant kept the principal hotel in that town. For some time between 1840 and 1841 the plaintiff had lived in the defendant's hotel. After he had left th e d e f en d an t' s h o use, that person said of him that he had been guilty of an abotnitiable crime. The pl a i nt iff , i n the year 1844, brought an action against the def e nd ant f or that ; lender ; when the case came into court at Exeter at that' time Mr. Cock. burn, who was coun se l f er t h e defendant, made a public re tractation of the charge, and accompanied it by an apology, and an arrangement was made by which a verdict passed for the plaintiff for 40s. damages, did the defendant was to pay 30/. towards extra costs. Some time after the settlement of that action the defendant repeated the imputation. The pre scait action was therefore brought, Mr. Sergeant KIIIGLAKE, on behalf of the defendant, said that the character of the plaintiff had . been fully vindi c ated by the amogy made On the former trial, and that, after ;he siihsequent repetition of the offensive words, the plaintiff should have put f‘rth to the world that apology. The Learned Sergeant then called upon the jury, undcr these cir cumstances, to give very moderate damages. Mr. Baron Roiss summed up the case to the iurv, ob serving that in such a matter he thought they should not he niggardly in awsrdiog damages. Surely the plaintiff w not, upon a repetition - of the slander, to be put to the ex pense and trouble of publishing the apology made by another potion 'for th. defendant ; but, notwithstanding the former LeiceAter, March 21. The commission for this town and the county were opened en Friday by Mr. Justice Coltman. There are twelve pri soner, f. ir the town, and nineteen for th tcounty. Among the former is one for murder. a report of which case appears be low. In the county calendar the offences charged are com paratively trifling. MunnEn. —Wm. Hubbard was charged with the murder of his wife on the 11th of August last. Mr. Hiidvard conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Macauley the defence. The prisoner and his wife lived in the borough of Leices ter, and had been married three years, anti some time befo:e her death had been lodging at the house of Elizabeth Huh b,rd, the prisoner's sister-in-law. The prisoner had been ill for some time, and in consequence was reduced to a great state of poverty. On the Thnrsday previous to her death, the wife, who had expressed an intention of going to Bir mingham to her friends for some time, called in a broker to sell some furniture, and goods were sold to the amount of one pound. Toe prisoner took a bedstead anti bed awa y with him to his father's, where he slept from the Thursday previous to the murder. It would appear the prisoner seemed uneasy at the prospect of his wife going away. On the night before the transaction in question, the prisoner and his wife were talking together in the entry leading co his brother's house for three-quarters of an hour. They then came in 'together ; they appeared to hare been quarrelling. The prisoner bade them good night and went away. Eliza beth Hubbard slept with her husband in the fr,nt room, the deceased occupied the back, having with her a child of her sister-in-law anther own. In the morning she got up at an early hour, went down stairs, and proceeded to light and blow the fire. Elizabeth Hubbard heard the voice of some one talking with her; it was a man's voice. Shortly after wards the foot of a naan was heard coming up stairs, and to go down again. The child had been cryir:g previously, but had ceased, when the same voice, which seemed the pri soner's, " It's asleep." There was a scuffling took pl ace, and the bellows used in blowing the fire was heard to fall, as if hit down. Prison r's brother and brother's wife got np and came down in their night-clothes, when they found the deceased leaning forwards with her hands stretched out, and blood flowing from her throat copiously. The prisoner was Ida: ding in a corner of the room. His sister-in-law said, "Oh, Hill, what have von done?" Ile replied, "I intended to do it iflgot hnng for it." The prisoner shortly afterwards let the spot. and was ultimately arrested in a field, at a short diett,nce off, near the canal. A surgeon was called in. but the weal= died shortly after rho wound had heed Misted. PUBLICATIO.iS. U. MICHELET'S NEW WORK. his day is published, r HE PEOPLE. By M.

COURT.-0, , t0 , e Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) ,BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE AND SEDUCTION. OWEN V. WILLIAMS, CLERK. • In this action, Ahrgaret Owen was the plaintiff, and the Rev. William Williams defendant ; and the action was br.ught by plaintiff to recover compensation in damages from the defendant, for the non-fulfilment on his part of a ,promise to marry her. Mr. E. V. Wi!liamQ, and Mr. E. L. Richards, appeared for the .plaintiff; Mr. Chilton, Q.C., and Mr. Wilson, for the defendant who pleaded that he had not promised to marry plaintiff. in the Thrm and manner stated. Mr. V. WILLIAMS addressed the jury on the part of the plaintiff, who he said was the daughter of a person in a !nimble though respectable condition in life, carrying of business as a farmer and master carrier, near Lampeter, Car diganshire. The defendant was a clergyman of the Church of England, residing •near Lampeter, and about five miles distant from the place where the plamtiff's father re sided. The plaintiff had the misfortune to lose her mother at a very early age, and the management. and care of the family had been left to Mary Owen, plaintiff's eldest sister. The family consisted of three sisters, besides plaintiff, as well as two brothers ; and the plaintiff and another si s t er were engaged as ccaifiderltial servants in respectable families in the neighbourhood, The plaintiff at the age of seventeen was employed in the family of a gentleman named Davies ; subsequently in that of a medical gentleman named Thomas, and in 1843 she was engaged by the defendant's brother, who was a bachelor, in a confidential capacity, as a housekeeper, havaig the entire tnanagetnent of his household, the disposal of farm produce, &c. It was here. she first met the defen dant. The plaintiff. then about twenty years of age, was, unfortunately for herself, a young woman of considerable personal attractions, and she was not long be fore the defendant became enamoured with her charms. He was a few years older than the plain tiff, and had then taken oidert only as a deacon, but not priest's orders. He contimwd paying marked and c instant attentions to her until the tpiing of 184 t, when she i.ecatne pregnant. The defendant, up on being made ac twanged with the fact, so far from being dissppointed or surprised. expr. s e ed the g r e a te s t pleasure, aria :!"id tint be would marry her, but also expressed a wish to dele it for a alleging that the circumstance of his marryp:: woman ie that cinditi , n might prove an hnpeciment to IN b inning pri , st's orders. He (defendant) therbfore propesed that the - plaietiff abonhl take private I.tgings at some dis ianee in the country; he (elefenitant) ufferitg to pay all ex penses, to provide an attendant, &c. Soon _afterwards he - - 'net the plaintiff 's sister, and communicated to - ' her the cir ,urnstances, when she was of course extremelr shy cked at he intelligence. The dere Alan!, with a view of a lleviating ~ e r grief; ass u red h er that he would marry the plaintiff, d tine, " e are already married in the sight of God, i,d what takes place in the church is urimportant, i-ing merely a matter of form I.•etbre men." Could it ni wondered at that a girl pieced in the plaintiff's ituation, when addressed in such language by a clergy man of the Church of England, had given way to temp tation ? Could it be wondered at that in an hour of weakness her virtue had not been sufficiently strong to resist his importunities? For some reasons, however, the proposed arrangements had b - en abandoned, and .the plain- Atl in August, 1844, was delivered of a son in her father's house. Dnring the lime of her confinement the defendant repeatedly visited her, and expr esse d as muc h p l easure_ as ahy man owning large possessions would on the birth ,f an neirapparent. Ile evinced great tenderness, arid on the occa -1,,n brought her a copy of Welsh verses written by himself, a literal prose translation of which he begged to read to the jury. [Toe Learned Counsel here read the verse., a speci wen of which is given below, and which excited some mer riment from the quaintness of the phra-eology. I The plain titf's educati n had not hi en such as to qualify her to inter mit with society in a cr, &table manner as a clegyman's wife. The defendint theretbre proposed that wie should go to school at Aberyst% ill'. and, in order to enalde hint to cor respond with her without the mistress knowing that she had a pupil carrying on such a con espondence, he addressed tier as his cousin, although it was well known that the plaintiff and defendant bore no blood -relationship towards each other. The following is a specimen of the prove translation of the Welsh poetry, written by defendant on the occasion of plain tiff's confinement : "Dearest Margaret—Be not grieved; better times than these will come an . ain, when you and myself shall be quite light-hearted. 31.tny times I have sorrowed and groaned heavily, because I had been the instrument to grieve you, my darling. The only comfort I can give you is to love and cherish you after having united our hands. . . . For all who behave unkindly to thee, my dear, there yet remains mi-fortune, woe, anguish, and long sorrow, with very great repentance My only pleasure, I protest, above everything, is to comfort thee. Theret; re raise up thy fkrart and be agoin full merry Marg'ret Marg'ret ! %larg'ret Marg'ret !—( Laughter.). In ,me thou bast put thy trust; trust again ''or a While." Learn(d Cotai'el tivit proceeded to read the first letter defendant to plaintiff after her arrival at school. The fol lowing are extracts:— " Iffy dear Cousin,—Nothing but the sight of you, and talking to you face to face, can be a greater yleasure to me than writing to you. It is most pleasing that I i ztri able to make known to you that all your relatives are in tt: - alth; especially your most dear love, Thomas James Williams. .! will pay you a visit before long; all with whom I conversC about you give you extraordinary praise, by commending you more and more, and stating many goad qualities you possess, while I listen to them with delight, as I always do to hear my relatives praised, especially you, my dearest cousin, Mar garet. I van never nuke known half my love to vou, were Ito write a year. . . Ido hope, for the sake of jour dear that you do not make any acquaintance, in the shape several other letters, was the plaiutitt's child, whom the de fendant had called after his own name. The manner in hich he is spoken of was undoubtedly used to blind the selmolmktress. Two other letters followed, in which the defendant expressed the most ardent affection towards the plaintiff; and • made the most affectionate reference to the child. IN another letter, dated January 8, 1845, the plain tiff gives the defendant some news of the c,urtship going on in the neighbourhood, and the information conveyed was anything but chaste or delicate. In re 'erencc to the plain tiff's child, he writes:—" I cannot possibly conclude without saying that yt - ur dear love, Tom James William, Esq., is doing well; he is getting fat, and begins to gr , tw red. I suppose he drinks hard—( Much laughter)—you will not be able to know him when you next see him. He becomes a bigoted gentleman like his papa. I shall write a long letter son again ; believe me to remain your ever affectionate cousin, W." Several additional letters were read, all breathing the most ardent affection ; but (observed the Learned Counsel) the jury would perceive. that although be had promised to visit the plaintiff at Aberystwith, he had never done sum she consequently walked a very long distance for the purpose of meeting him. In a letter written by the defendant subse quent to this, he expressed regret that the should have un dergone so much fatigue. She appeared to have suffered in health. In his last letter, dated Feb. 8. 1845, defendant writes:—" I am very sorry to hear you have been unwell, but with feelings of tender love I sincerely hope you have recoYered from your illness, and are quite as well as ever. My dear, I did not receive your kind at d affectionate letter until Saturday. I hope you sill go back as soon as possible. I beg of you to do so tur your own sake. Do not mind, my love, what people do say and talk. You know that people cannot but say one thing to-day and another to-morrow ; therefore I trust you will, &west, scorn what they say, and believe what I say, as Ido what you say." He concludes, "excuse my bad writing in great haste; hoping you and Tom are well, I remain yours sincerdy, for ever. Wm: WILLIAMS." , - The Learned Counsel proceeded . to state that it was impos sible to doubt that throughout this correspondence, - and sub sequently, the defendant had expressed the most ardent at tachment to the plaintiff. On the hth of March the child alluded to in the correspondence oied. The defendant's grief was most poignant ; he wro' e the inscription for the coffin himself ; wished the plaintiff's family to go iu mourning. He visited plaintiff's father's 'wipe nine days afterwards, but for some reason known only to himself, since t;:at time he had won himself up in the house, and would see neither the plaintiff nor any of her relations. Whether he thought that the child being dead, there would be no danger of an order of affiliation, or whether he was influenced by any other . rea son. he (the Learned Counsel )could not sa y . gr. Williams con. eluded an address of much feeling, by contrasting the present condition of the plaintiff with what it would have been as the wife of a clergyman of the Church of England, had the de fendant not violated his promise. He hoped the jury would give damaces proportionate to the serious injury inflicted on the plaintiffs feelings and reputation. Mary Owen, the plaintiff's ehtest sister, an interesting Welsh girl, was then examined through the medium of an inter, reter. She could speak English. but preferred Welsh. Her evidem•efully bore out the statement ofthe Learned Coun sel respecting repeated promises of marriage ; defendant's conduct during her sister's confinement ; his theory of it at:- riage in the light of God, &c., to the close and decline of his attentions. It appeared he was in expectation of a benefice, and for some time gave that as a reason for the postponement of the marriage. A postman was called to prove the delivery of several let ters from plaintiff to defendant ; and another witness deposed to some unimportant circumstances. Mr. Cllitxtk Q.C.. then addressed the jury in mitigation of damages. He had seldom addressed a jury under a greater sense of the difficulty of his task, and the responsibility im posed upon him. He did not appear there to deny the main facts of the case, nor to excuse the defendant's conduct. The case had been presented to the jury in a very specious and highly coloured manner. It w ou ld appear froln the opening that the plaintiff was a young woma n o f ver y respecta bl e attainmt ntss, i , but t turned out that h e r ed uca ti on was o r th e very commonest kind, until d e f en d ant h a d p l ace d h er i n school, in no way adapting her for a clergyman's wife. In deed, she could hardly have been said to possess any educa tion. The defendant's expression respecting marriage in the sight of God hail not beep used as the language e,f solicita tion, as opened by the Learned Counsel, but as language of palliation and remorse, after having done what he knew to have been wrong and unholy. No evidetnce had been given as to defendant's property. The defendant well knew be had no benefice. If the iuri , awarded heavy &maps it would be tantamount to blighting all the future prospects of the defendant. The Learned JUDGE having minutely and concisely summed up the evidence. the jure, after a short eeliberacon, returned a verdict for the plaintitl; wit!' 100/. damages. This concluded the assizes here, and the Learned Judge left for Brecon on Saturday morning. C , MERTON ON THE BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.—On Sa• turdsy evening the up mixed train, which left Birming,ham at -15 minutes past fi ve, met with an accident o f a formidrib:e nature, but which did not, fortimately, cause Its of life or limb to any one. Everything went on well until the train had passed the Cheddingtnn station, but on cu b -ring a deep caing about two miles from Trim!, the train came in vio lent colli• - ion with three luguag. waggons, which were - most unaccountably left standi' g on the rails. Most of the pas sengers were thrown off their seats, and as soon as they re covered from the shock, many of them got out and scrambled up the cutting, as there was great fear of the express train coming up and dashrig the other train to pieces. The guards, however, immedi4ely dispatched men both un and down the line with signals to stop it, and in this they fortunately succeeded. The three waggons were turned off the rails, the first one corn letely thrown over, and all of them much da twnassg were in stich a position that it . fo d u b t Y d im . possihle to get them clear, and after two hours' the colhsion. They mail down train had safely passed, was delay the tram WAS taken back as far as Cheittlington (three transferred the other line, ard arrived in Loildon about $ miles), find after the quarter past one, three hours ofter the regular time.
