IRISH GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE LORD:.3 SPIRITUAL AND TEMPORAL, IN PARMA.- MENT ASSEMBLED. The Petition of the undersigned Subscribers to the Irish Great Western Railway. Humbly showeth, That a Bill has been brought into your Right Honour able House, called the "'Midland Great Western Rail way of Ireland ;Mullingar and Galway) Bill, for making a railway from Mullingar to Galway. That a certain other Bill has been brought into your Right Honourable House, called the " Irish Great Western Railway," for making a railway from Port arlington to Galway. That an attempt was made during the last session of Parliament, by the Midland Great Western Railway Company, to obtain the consent of Parliament to qle project for the construction of a railway to Athlone anal Galway, when the said Company presented a Bill in the House of Commons to enable them to carry into effect that portion of the scheme between Dublin and Athlone. That the said last-mentioned Bill, together with a Bill to enable the Irish Great Western Railway Company to construct a railway from a point on the Great Southern and Western Railway to Galway, were brought at the commencement of the last session of Parliament, under the consideration of the Board of Trade, which tribunal reported strongly in favour of the Irish Great Western Railway, and against the said competing project. That an agreement was subsequently entered into be tween the two Companies, to the effect, that the Irish Great Western Railway Company should construct their line to Galway, and that the Midland Great Western should abandon that portion of their scheme between Mullingar and At long s and confine:their, operations to the trwth westefir pkrts Tieleizd; by (Mending their line to Longford and 'Sligo. That the said report of the Board of Trade was brought under the consideration of the Select Com , mittee of the House of Commons, to which the said Bills were referred in the last session of Parliament, whose decision was in accordance with the recommendation of the Board cf Trade, and the said committee sanctioned the said agreement entered icto between the said com panies, having added to the Dublin and Mullingar Bill the title of " Midland," and struck out of the said Bill all the clauses enabling the said Midland Great Western Company to construct the branch from Mullingar to Athlone. That the said agreement was faithfully observed by the Irish Great Western Railway Company, who with drew oil opposition against the Mullingar Bill, which consequently obtained the sanction of Parliament, hav ing passed into a law under the title of "An Act for making a railway from Dublin to Mullingar and Long ford," to be called The Midland Great Western Rail way of Ireland." That the following is a copy of the said agreement:— (No. I.) MEMORANDUM OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE DUBLIN AND GALWAY COMPANY AND THE DUBLIN AND MULLINGAR AND LONGFORD COMPANY.

In 1823, he purchased the 011erenshaw .state, consisting of 170 acre., for which he paid 8,000/. In ISJO, he retired from business, and went to reside on the pronerty, and continued so to do until his death. The mind of the I.,estator was swayed by two motives, penury and os tentation. He was at the same time kind to the poor, but here his loose of money showed itself, for though engaging large number..= of them when out of employ, he would, ne vertheless, give them the smallest wages he could. The tes tator was in the habit of corresponding with his relatives in London, that is, with the father of the present plaintiff; and his family, and ott one occasion he went with them to see the " Lions," such as the Parliament Houses, the Opera House, &c. It would appear that, having risen from a humble sta• tion, his chief object \vas to found a family name, and not being, in the year 183 g, 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 " his good son Walter ;" he also mentions that his brother has only dankhters, and it 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 some peculiar not io a n n s d a s c t o o v e t n h a e n wo t er rl b s infe, former er t t i h m e es , ar grave, e v a e n r d y like t ri c t t h i e n Puri tans their religious notions. In 1839 the testator married a Miss Bar low, the daughter of a widow lady, at whose death she would inherit near 10,000/. Quarrels arose between them ; while just a year after the marriage a• charge was 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 no 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 he did squeeze out of the party 1001. On one occasion 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 was hers, he took the contrary side of the question, and a scene of recrimination took place, which ended in her scratching her name through, and they left without the money. In consequence of these disagreements, the wife, on two occasions, left ber husband's home, and only re turned shortly before his death, which took place on the 7th of May, 1845. On the 25th of March, 1845, he made his will, giving the estate in question to the lessor of the plaintiff. He also left a large sum for the building 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 5/. ; 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 making his will, for in a letter written shortly aft.er 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 ostenrion broke out, for he states his house is forty-two yards long, and in order to give it an im posiso appearance the stables were in the middle, and to save in taxes no room had more than one window. Mr. flumfrey then read several letters from the testator to his relation in town. We insert the following as shdwing 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 well nigh effected. As for Cobden, I was on the hustings at Stock port when he first offered himself a candidate for the bo rough, but lost his election, my brother being returning officer, as mayor. He (Cobden) is very malicious, and of fiend-like passions, and 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 descrip tion, those mechanics who used to earn 20s. now get but 65., and not employment 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, Russiln cutlery and German saws are sold at 30s. per cwt. under English. Now trade is bank rupted agriculture must he so too—American cheese at sd. equal to English at 7d. Consider all foreign nations under the idea of single men in lodgings, and English tradesmen as householders who have rent and taxes to pay. Would it he right to have all householders out of home to live in caves and under hedges? Need we ask how a river is dried up when its sources are dried away ?" The Learned Counsel then went on to detail the circumstances 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 he 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 went 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 be chaste, and that his wife in particular was abominable ; and all this, so far as the evidence want, 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 endearing terms. He was exceedingly jealous of his female servants being contaminated, and would discharge a labourer if he even looked towards the house. 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 conduct in 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 fires in the house blown at the same time ; and 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 coals wasted. On one occasion he made his wife sit with him all night long in the coal-cellar ; on another he mistook a log of wood for a devil. and would have it shot at. At another time he said he was beset with twelve devils, he accordingly went out, and having fired a pistol twelve times, he came back paci fied, saying he had 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 t o o disgusting and horrible to be given, and could only be ascribed to the mental delusion under which he was suffering. At the conclusion of Mr. 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 gen era l i nsan i ty ; therefore, considering the proper attestation of the will might also be doubtful, he was content not to ask a verdict at their hands. Before he did that he begged to mak e an observa 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, and he hoped it would be a satisfaction 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 CRIB JUSTICE said he thought the Learned Counsel took a very proper view of the case, whilst the observations he had made were handsome and honourable to his feelings. A verdict was then taken for the defendant. Leicester, March 21. The commission for this town and the county were opened on Friday by Mr. Justice Coltman. There are twelve pri soners for the town, and nineteen for the county. 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. Ilildyard 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, and some time befote her death had been lodging at the house of Elizabeth Hub bard, 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 Thursday 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. The prisoner took a bedstead and bed away with him to his father's, where he slept from the Thursday previous to the 'murder. It would appear the prisoner seamed uneasy at the prospect of his wife going away. On the night before the transaction in question, the prisoner and his wifo were talking together in the entry leading to his brother's house for three-quarters of an hour. They then came in together ; they appeared to have been quarrelling. The prisoner bade them good night and went away. Eliza beth Hubbard slept with her husband in the front room, the deceased occupied the back, I:a:mg with her a child of her sister-in-law and her 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 man was heard coming up stairs, and to go down again. The child had been crying previously, but had ceased, when the same voice, which seemed the pri soner's, s.,id, " It's asleep." There was a scuffling took place, and the bellows used in blowing the fire was heard to fall, as if hit down. Prisoner's brother and brother's wife got up 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 standing in a corner of the room. His sister-in•law said, "Oh, Bill, what have you clone?" He replied, " I intended to do it if I got hung for it." The prisoner shortly afterwards left the spot, and was ultimately arrested in a field, ut a short distance off, near the canal. A surgeon was called in, but the woman died shortly after the wound had been inflicted.

The heads of an agreement for carrying into effect the proposed measures for a railway from Dublin to Mullingar and Longford, to be ultimately continued to Sligo, and another railway from Porter' ngton to Gal- way, through Athlone. It is agreed that the petitions now pending in Parliament for the above purpose be withdrawn, and that each party assist the other to carry the pending Bills (but confined to the above objects) into effect. If any difference shall arise as to the mode of carry ing the above arrangement into effect, it is hereby dis tinctly agreed by all parties signing this paper that the mode of doing so shall be submitted to the decision of the Committee to whom the Bills be referred.

That notwithstanding the said agreement, the said Mullingar Co m p any covert l y ass i sted ot h er parties in opposing the Bill of the Irish Great Western Railway Company in Parliament in the last session, and when an arrangement was entered into between the secretary of the Grand Canal Company an I the Irish Great Westcrn Company, that no opposition should be proceeded with on the part of the f , riner, and that certain clauses should be introduced for the protection of the interests of the Canal Company, Mr. Perry, who had signed the under taking on the part of the Mullingar Company, entered an opposition against the Irish Great Western Railway on standing orders, in direct violation of his solemn pledge, which he kept up until the arrival in London of Sir John Kingston James, one of the Canal Directors, who refused to ratify the ag ement of the authorised secretary of the Canal Company. That Mr. John Ennis, also, who had signed the declaration hereinbefore mentioned as deputy-chairman of the Mullingar Line, setting forth, " That i a the fullest confidence that the arrangement entered into between Mr. French and Mr. Perry would be carried out by both gentlemen and the companies they represented , as wel l vs those by whom they wer e supported, or w'th whom they were connected, to th e u t mos t o f their ability, for securing the Acts of Incorporation for both lines," and who thereby further declared, " That he acquiesced in anp confirmed the said agreement ," h a d a petition signed by himself, and presented to your Lordships House, as soon as the Act for incorporating his own company had the been said p seeurcitidt,seentetiri,ig Johnfor E ath e m ei o s. ngs t other things that show another and a b e tt er li ne o f ra ilway w together Dublin and G a l w ay th a n that which had been adopted by the Irish Great Western Railway Company, f a e s r prepared connecting t;, and praying that the Irish Great We_tern Railway Bill might not be allowed to pass.

That your petitioners submit that this breach of a written engagement and total disregard of the former decision of the Committee of the House of Commons, on the part of the Midland Great Western Company, have been productive of great expense and inccnvenience to your said petitioners, and also of serious injury to the country, by reason of the delay thereby occas i one d i n the construction of a Railway to the West of Ireland.

SUMMER SESSION AT THE ABERDEEN ITNIVERSITy.— Arrangements are now in progress, we understand, for in stituting a Summer Session. It is not intended in any way to interfere with, or supersede the studies of the winter, but to afford the students an opportunity of prosecuting these with greatly increased efficiency. Thedesirableness, nay, neces sity of this educational improvement has long been felt and acknowledged. The matter has been zealously taken up by several most influential and public-spirited gentlemen, with whom Provost Blaikie, with his usual zeal in the public service, has heartily co-operated. Others of our civic func tionaries are, we understand, very friendly to the object in view. Several professors, with whom the individuals above referred to have been in communication, have signified their entire willingness to engage in the work. We are informed that, as the result of a meeting, held on Thursday, of the parties who have chiefly interested themselves in this movement, including some of the professors, with the provost, in the Council Chamber, it was agreed to try the experiment of a Summer Session, for certain classes. As the details must almost immediately be laid before the public, it is unne cessary to say more at present; but we must express a ' strong hope that the experiment will receive from the public such support as to afford ample encouragement for carrying out the scheme on a scale of greater extension in future seasons.—Aberdeen Herald. LITERARY MEN —We believe the truth to be, that potent ministers, great commanders, and rulers of every ge nius, do not like independent literary men. They fear them in their energy, and applaud their own cunning generosity when they can stop their late and dying accents with some paltry pension, or bury them with cathedral honours, or redeem their widows or orphans from starvation and the union workhouse.

Deceased was in a chair. The wound in her throat caused her death. She could not have spoken after it, for it severed her windpipe, and must have been done by a person standing behind. The prisoner was found Guilty, when Mr. Justice COLTMAN passed the awful sentence of the law upon him, that he be hung, holding out no hopes of mercy. The prisoner remained unmoved during 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.—Exeter, March 21. NISI PRIUS COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron ROLFE and a Special Jury.) BREACH OF PROMISE.—ELLICE V. FENWICE. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is a lady formerly residing at Teignmouth, in this county, against the defendant, for a breach of promise of marriage. Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Stone appeared for the plaintiff; Q Mr. Crowd er , Q.C., M r. Haywood, .C., and Mr. Montague Smith for the defence. Mr. SToxE h av i ng opened the pleadings, Mr. GREF.NWOoD stated the facts of the case to the jury. He then called th Miss Amelie Longdie examined by Mr. STONE.—I know widow,al the dapslal eightoi d l b t g i o ff i and unytge tahlNr r: t ti h yi a e . nfii ‘ d div e re f s e h.3 n a. e d da a r n fsto Ellice. of fra g n Te the i autumn of last year childrens hme had u oa t fd h . 031131 re ! hae daughter,and defendant Swardw ard un d b e y r h i‘ e i r r. charge. Hayes.dwasras M T rs h . ed Ellice efen Laisi t v ro e d d u introduced Veal's the a r s Hatch, and had a cottage at Combe, close to Paddon's farm house. He is about thirty. He appeared to be a man of wealth • kept horses, dogs, a d og - cart, groom, a yacht with five men, a phaeton, also a gamekeeper; he rented a manor also. He said he had a house in town, a barouche, an estate at Hay ling, also one at Croydon. He came t o M rs. Ellice ' s daily ; some days many times. We often went out in his yacht, by invitation, myself, the plaintiff, and Mr. and Mrs. llayes. I remember the Teignmouth races. On the second day we both went. I and Mrs. Ellice walked to to the course with the defendant. The race-course is close to the town. He was particularly attentive to Mrs. Ellice, and introduced her to his brother-in-law, Mr. Marston. I saw the defendant on the next day. He invited myself and Mrs. Ellice to go to Torquay. We went about two o'clock, in a hired carriage. He was exceedingly attentive to the plain tiff. We returned in the evening. On the next day he called, and said he was going to London. On that day I dined at Mrs. Hayes's. On my return I found Mr. Fenwick there in the drawing-room with the plaintiff. I thought my company was not desired, and j went into the next room, which was my bed-room. There was a door com municating into the drawing-room. There is a table, a dressing-table, next the door. I stood at that end still. There heard the defendant speak. It was in a loud tone. I heard him say, " Mrs. Ellice will you have me?" She said, " Your family will think you foolish." He interrupted her, saying, " My 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 to his deceased sister, and much valued, some French slippers, gold studs, marble vase, gloves, and daily presents of French flowers and wine. I have heard him tell 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. Ellice's lodgings. On the 24th of September, which was his birthday, he said to me that he had wished Mrs. Ellice to spend that day with him at hia cottage alone, but 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. The children had been sent by him, with the nurse, to the cottage to spend the day, and Mr. Downs 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 phaeton, and Mrs. Ellice sat by his side on the front seat, 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 ou the 2d 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, and 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 said that he was sorry that he had been unable to go with Mrs. Ellice. He said he should co to meet her at the railway station ; he did several times, but she did not come by the first train, by which be 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 me that he was about to dismiss his housekeeper and sell his dog-cart to retrench. Previous to settling he or dered a fly at half-past eight, when he went to the station and returned with Mrs. Ellice. He then gave her the gold studs. We returned to Teignmouth in his carriage. He promised to dine with Mrs. Ellice the next day, but did not come. The next day there was a ball at Teignmeuth. 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 hall, where I again saw him. I asked him why he had not kept bis appointment to dine, he said he had been at the barracks engaged with the colonel. He said the officers had been teasing him about his being a married man, but he did not care for that. He said he had an 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 en board the yacht the next day, which we did. The defendant, on this and all other occasions, behaved in a way he could not have done had he not considered himself an engaged person. He said lie was going to Oxford on the 16th of October, and it was arranged that we should go to Exeter to meet him. Mr. and Mrs. Johnstone were to return on the same day to Dublin. They went, but Mrs. Ellice did not, as she was ill. This was the 14th of October. Before he went away he gave 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 told 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 caused her illness; that he was sorry he could not come down that day, as he was engaged. Desired me to give his love to her, and tell her so. I went ba c k th a t d a y. After this I saw M r.i Downes, he was an intimate friend of the defendant. He came to Mrs. Ellice's. I was in the room with her. Some conversation passed, and he left. I never after saw the defendant there. Mrs. Ellice remained at Teignmouth until November, and tl:en left. Cross-examined by Mr. CROWDER—I had known the plain tiff for four years before July, at London, Cheltenham, and at Brighton. I began to reside with her is the September before she went 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. When I came back she engaged me as a subteacher under her, and she went to Teignmouth. We lodged just opposite the hotel. It is a narrow street. Mr. Fenwick once gave me some gloves and a pencil-case, which he first 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 earthenware 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 mitted 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, but he did not in any way shake her testimony. Henry W. Hayes—l reside at Teignmouth. I know both the plaintiff and the defendant. I have known the defendant about 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 spoken to me of the widow. I understood by this he meant Mrs. Ellice. He once said to me " he'd be d—d if he would not marry the widow." He said he had written to his sister, Mrs. Marston, about it. I have seen him since this action was brought. I have been examined by the attorney on the other side, and am subpoenaed by both. I once heard him say " that he had never written. There was no evidence against 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 Lacy; that he had compromised it for 1,0001., and had paid 500/. for expenses. I have sometimes heard him speak of Miss Wilson. This was in January or February that he was en gaged to her, and meant to marry her. He showed ins a pile of letters, and said they were hers. 111 r. CROWDER addressed the jury for the defence. He contended that there was no evidence from which the jury could infer a solemn contract to marry, and that the present by the plaintiff to the defendant of the china image after she must have felt that the defendant's attentions had ceased, showed that she was rather inclißed to treat the whole mat ter as a joke. Mr. Baron ROLFE having very minutely summed up the evidence to the jury, they immediately found a verdict fur the plaintiff—Damages, 5001. LANE V. FOALS. Mr. Crowder, Mr. Butt, and Mr. Cornish conducted the case for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Sergeant Kinglake and Mr. Barstow that of the defendant. This was an action brought to recover compensation in damages for slanderous words used by the defendant o f and concerning the plaintiff. It appeared that the plai n tiff was the son of a clergyman, who had lived at Kingsbridge, an d the defendant kept the principal hotel in that t own. For some time between 1840 and 1843 the plaintiff had lived in the defendant's hotel. After he had left the defendant's house, that person said of him that he had been guilty of an abominable crime. The plaintiff, in the year 1844, brought an action against the defendant for that slander ; when the case came into court at Exeter at that time Mr. Cock burn, who was counsel for the 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, and the defendant was to pay 30/. towards extra costs. Some time after the settlement of that action the defendant repeated the imputation. The pre sent action was therefore brought. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, on behalf of the defendant, said that the character of the plaintiff had been fully vindicated by the apwogy made on the former trial, and that, after the subsequent repetition of the offensive words, the plaintiff should have put forth to the world that apology. The Learned Sergeant then called upon the jury, under these cir cumstances, to give very moderate damages. Mr. Baron ROLFE summed up the case to the jury, ob serving that in such a matter he thought they should not be niggardly in awarding damages. Surely the plaintiff was not, upon a repetition of the slander, to be put to the ex pense and trouble of publishing the apology made by another person for the defendant i but, notwithstandir% the krnaer /Z ,__. _ . 1 o ,,_e. • i t , e rotwatisttiA 101144 ut $4- 4 1 1.

BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE AND SEDUCTION. OWEN V. WILLIAMS, CLERK. In this action, Margaret Owen Was the plaintiff, and the Rev. William Williams defendant ; and the action was brought 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!liams 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 form and manner stated. Mr. V. WILLIAMS addressed the jury on the part of the plaintiff, who be said was the daughter of a person in a humble though respectable condition in life, carrying on 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 plaintiffs father re sided. The plaintiff bad 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 sister were engaged as confidential servants in respectable families in the neighbourhood, The plaintiff at the age of seventeen theemployedinthat () fe r ul e i m ly et o li f ca al gentleman nn named ded Thomas, and and in 1843 she was engaged by the defendant's brother, who e ue i y in was a bachelor, in a confidential capacity, as a housekeeper, subsequently having the entire management 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 con siderable personal attractions, and she was not with long r be fore the defendant became enam oure d a deacon , but not priest's orders. He plain tiff, and had then taken orders on y it s d continued paying marked and constant charms. He was a few years old l er tha n thed* constant attentions to her until the sprin g ac quainted with the fact, so far from being is appointed or surprised, expressed the greatest pleasure. s aid and that he f b being when she became pregnant. The defendant, upo ng made would marry her, bu t also expressed a wish to delay it for a time, alleging that the circumstaice of his marrying his woman in that condition mi g ht p r ove an impediment to his obtaining priest's orders. lie (defendant) therefore proposed that the plaintiff should take private lodgings at same dis tance in the country, he (defendant) offering to pay all ex pense,, to provide an attendant, &c. Soon afterwards he met the plaintiff's sister, and communicated to her the cir cumstances, when she was of course extremely shocked at the intelligence. The defendant, with a view of allevinting her grief, assured her that he would marry the plaintiff, adding, " We are already married in the sight of God, and what takes place in the church is unimportant, being merely a matter of form before men." Could it be wondered at that a girl placed in the plaintiff's situation, 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 been abandoned, and the plain tiff in August, 1844, was delivered of a son in her father's house. During the time of her confinement the defendant repeatedly visited her, and expressed as much pleasure as any man owning large possessions would on the birth of an heir apparent. He evinced great tenderness, and on the occa sion brought her a copy of Welsh verses written by himself, a literal prose translation of which he begged to read to the jury. [T he Learned Counsel here read the verses, a speci men of which is given below, and which excited some mer riment from the quaintness of the phraseology. J The plain. tiff's education had not been such as to qualify her to inter mix with society in a creditable manner as a clegyman's wife. The defendant therefore proposed that she should go to school at Aberyatwith, and, in order to enable him to cor respond with her without the mistress knowing that she had a pupil carrying on such a correspondence, he addressed her as his cousin, although it was well known th a t th e plaintiff and defendant bore no blood relationship towards each other. The following is a specimen of the prose translation of the Welsh poetry, written by defendant on the occasion of plain• tiff's confinement : "Dearest Margaret—Be not grieved ; better times thins these will come again, when you and myself shall be quite , light-hearted. Many times I h ave sorrowed and groaned heavily, because I had been th e i ns t rument to grieve you, my darling. The only c o mfort I can g i ve you is to !eve and cherish you after having united our h an d e , For all who behave unkindly to thee, my dear, there yet remains mi'fortune, woe, anguish, and long sorrow, with very great repentance. above everything, is to comfort thee. Therefore raise up thy heart and be again full merry Alarg'ret ! Margret I Marg'ret! Marg'ret !—( Laughter.) In me thou hast put thy trust; trust again for a while." The Learned Counsel then proceeded to read the first letter of defendant to plaintiff after her arrival at school. The fol lowing are extracts : " My dear Cousin,—Nothing but the sight of you, and talking to you face to face, can be a greater pleasure to me than writing to you. It is most pleasing that lam able to make known to you that all your relatives are in health, especially your most dear love, Thomas James Williams. I will pay you a visit before long; all with whom I converse about you give you extraordinary praise, by commending you more and more, and stating many good qualities you possess, while I listen to them with delight, as 1 always do to hear my relatives praised, especially you, my dearest cous i n, Mar garet. I can never make known half my love to you, were Ito write a year. . . Ido hope, for the sake of your dear lover, that you do not make any acquaintance, in the shape of love with any one, as that would be the perfect';, breaking of the treaty of your dearest." The Thomas James Williams alluded to in the above, as in several other letters, was the plaintiff's child, whom the de fendant had called after his own name. The manner in which he is spoken of was undoubtedly used to blind the schoolmistress. 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 courtship going on in the neighbourhood, and the information conveyed was anything but chaste or delicate. In reference to the plain tiff's child, lie writes ;—" I cannot possibly conclude without saying that your dear love, Tom James 'Williams, Esq., is doing well; ho is getting fat, and begins to grow 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 soon 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 he had promised to visit the plaintiff at Aberystwitb, he had never done so-- 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 she 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 yon have recovered from your illness, and are quite as well as ever. My dear, I did not receive your kind and affectionate letter until Saturday. I-hope you will go back as soon as possible. I beg of you to do so for 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, dearest, 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 sincerely, for ever, Was. WlLLtimit." 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 sth of M arc h t h e child a w l a it s id m ed o t st o i i ) n o the gna h correspondence ; e v,,wrote h t di e e d. The inscriptiond defendant's a t n h t e ' s c himself ; wished the plaintiff's family to go in mourning. He visited plaintiff's father's house nine days afterwards, but for some reason known only to himself, since that time he had shut 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 say. Mr. 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 damages proportionate to the serious injury indicted olt the plaintiffs feelings and reputation. Mary Owen, the plaintiff's eldest sister, an interesting Welsh girl, was then examined through the medium of an interpreter. She could speak English, but preferred Welsh. Her evidencefully bdre out the statement of the Learned Coun sel respecting repeated promises of marriage ; defendant's conduct during her sister's confinement ; his theory of mar riage in the sight 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 severral let ters from plaintiff to defendant ; and another witutes deposed to some unimportant circumstances. Mr. CHILTON, Q.C., then addressed the jirry in mitigation of damages. He had seldom addressed ajury under a greater sense of the difficulty of his task, and the responsibility im posed upon him. lie did not appear there to deny the • main facts of the case, nor to excuse tile defendant's conduct. The case had been presented to the jury in a very specious and. highly coloured manner. It would appear from the opening that the plaintiff was a young woman of very respectable attainments, but it turned out that her education was of the very commonest kind, until defendant had placedher in school, in no way adapting her for a clergyman's wife. In deed, she could hardly have been said to any educa tion. The defendant's expression respecting possess- t ma rriage in the sight of God had not been used tion, as opened by the Learned as language o 3°licita- Counsel, but as language of palliation and remorse, a ft er having d one what he knew to have been wrong and unholy. No evidence had been • given as to defendant's property. The defendant well knew he had no benefice. If the jury awarded heavy damages 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 jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff, with 1001. damages. This concluded the assizes here, and the Learned Judge left for Brecon on Saturday morning. CC , LLISION ON THE BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.—Ott Sao turday evening the up mixed train, which left Birmingham at •t 5 minutes past five, met with an accident of a formidable nature, but which did not, fortunately, cause loss of life or limb to any one. Everything went on well until the train had passed the Cheddington station, but on entering a deep cutting about two miles from Tring, the train came in vio lent collision with three luggage waggons, which were most unaccountably left standing 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 get out and scrambled up the cutting, as there was great fear of the express train coming up and dashing the other train to pieces. The guards, however, immediately dispatched men both up 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 completely thrown over, and all of them much da maged by the collision. They '.ere in such a position that it was found impossible to get them clear, and after two hours' delay the train was taken back as far as Cheddington (three miles), and after the mail down train had safely pained, was transferred to the other line, and arrived in Louden about a quarter past one, three hours after the regular Vans. A notice bas been received by the Customs' authorities of a revolving light having been established at the entrance of the Harbour of St. Juan, in the island of Puerto 'Rico, and a copy of the same will be posted, by their directioUlt, at all the porta throughout the kingdom, for the information Q =owl of made and alt mu wan etatArrsed. ~~~2% ~jL s~G'~' 1
