SPIRIT OF THE TIJRF. 5 P.N. Feb, 25, 1852. FRANCE- The President's second ball took place on Monday night at the Tuileries, The number of tickets issued was, I am informed, 3,500, and so numerous were the applications that a notice was inserted some days since in the papers to the effect that no more invitations could be issued. It is stated, however, that not less than 4,00 0 pers ons were present. The President arrived at the Palace at nine o'clock, and left at mid. night. The Marshals present were Jerome Bona parte, Rollie, and Excelmans. All the Ministers attended except M. de Persigny and the Minister-at- War—the latter was prevented by an accident which occurred to his son, whose leg was broken by a kick from a horse. The Diplomatic Corps and Consular body in Paris were nearly complete. A considerable number of senators attended in their new official cos tume, and M. Baroche appeared in that of Vice- President of the Council of State. The attendance of military men was considerable, and several Com mandants of the reformed National Guard were pre sent in their new uniform. New arrangements had been adopted in order to prevent confusion. The vestiare, for instance, was placed in t he oran g er y , which also served as the first salle d'entree. Instead of being admitted by one entrance, as on former occa sions, carriages arrived by two--the Pavillon de Fiore and the Pavillon de l'Horloge ; the former reserved for the high public functionaries, the latter for the persons invited. By this means order was main tained. The ball lasted till four o'clock in the morning. T H E S tr N. dead. And then, again, the cafes and the reading room s—a very legion—can they do the same amo unt of business when they have no newspapers to offer? I wonder whether the French Dictator has ever thought of the wide-spread misery he has occasio ned, and is causing, by his enmity to the press. It may be doubted —else, perhaps, he would never, from motives of per sonal or political conveni-nce, have annihilated such an important branch of human industry, which gave bread to tens of thousands. It is a fine thing to have a giant's strength, but tyrannous to use it as a gia nt. HEALTHOF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the R e gistrar-General's Report.) In the week ending last Saturday the deaths regis tered in the metropolitan districts were 1,072, show ing an increase of 102 on the return of the previous I , week, in which the number was 970. In the 10 cor responding weeks of the years 1842-51 the average was 1,085, which, with a correction made for increase of population, becomes 1,194. The return of last week exhibits a mortality, therefore, less than the corrected average by 122. The increase on the preceding return arises princi pally from diseases of the respiratory organs, which were fatal in the former week to 185 persons, in the latter to 203. Phthisis or consumption (in the tuber cular class) destroyed 122 and 155 lives in the two successive weeks. It will be observed also that, while the deaths from pneumonia rose in the same period from 54 to 74, those from bronchitis decreased from 98 to 93. In connexion with these facts, it seems necessary to remark that the mean weekly tem perature, which in January was generally above 40, and is the first week of February rose to 47, declined in the second week to 38.8, and last week it was 39.8. Last week 21 children and four adults were carried off by smallpox. In the Smallpox Hospital one death occurred on the 13th February, and 2 on the 14th, viz.—a labourer from Kensington, aged 21 years, died of " smallpox, confluent, unpr otected (12 days)," a porter from Saffron-bill, aged 31 years, " smallpox, confluent, unprotected (14 days)," and a carman from Broad-street, Lambeth, aged 23 years, " smallpox, confluent, unprotected (8 days)." In the whole 25 cases it is only stated in three that the sufferers bad been previously vaccinated. At 30, Great Ormond-street, Queen-square, on the 16th February, an emigration agent, aged 22 years, died of." typhus (12 days)." Mr. Goodhugb, the registrar, states that the fatal disease was " caused by foul air arising from the drains of the house." In the sub-district of Hackney-road, at 13, Turville-street, the daughter of a stick-dresser, aged 6 years, died on the 13th February, of " typhus (14 days), convulsions (5 days)," Mr. Murray describes the street as "close, crowded, and imperfectly drained," , and he adds that Turville-place, where a child died of hoopingcough, is a " close, over-crowded, and ill-drained court." On the 13th of February, at Farm-house, Harrow street, Borough-road, a labourer, aged 60 years, died of "carbuncle (3 days), typhoid fever." In 1851, 11 of the general hospitals of London had 2,762 resident patients, and 2,266 deaths took place in the year ; the mortality on the population was therefore more than 82 per cent. The patient only remained, on an average, 34 days in hospital ; 29,857 passed through the wards ; and the mortality was therefore 7.59 per cent. in the 34 days. About 92 in 100 who enter leave the London Hospital alive. The average number of lunatics in 20 asylums was 3,748; the deaths in the year 1851 were 394; the annual rate of mortality was therefore 10.51 per cent. But the patients remained 1,68 years in those asy lums; and only 2,233 were discharged recovered, re lieved, unrelieved, or dead ; consequently 17.64 in 100 cases terminated fatally, and of 100 who enter 82.36 leave the asylums alive. In the Fever Hospital there were 11.37 deaths to 100 cases under treatment on an average 38 days, which implies that the rate of mortality was 110.53 deaths annually to every 100 patients constantly resi dent (100 occupied beds). In the Consumption Hospital 15.74 deaths occurred in 100 cases under treatment. about 76 days ; the ;rate of mortality im plies, therefore, that among a population consisting exclusively of persons labouring under consumption, the mortality would be 75 . 56 per ce n t. annua lly, as represented by hospital experience.

The publication of the sentence of the District Court in Hesse Cassell against the members of the Permanent Committee of the late Chamber was Exed for the 19th. Only two of the accused, M. Schwarzenburg and M. Grafe appeared, M. Henkel having escaped. They are convicted of attempting to resist the execution of the decrees of September, 1850, incurring thereby the penalties of high trea son according to an ordinance of 1795. They were sentenced to terms of two and three years' imprison ment, with deprivation of Civil rights. They have both entered an appeal against the sentence. One of those fearful whirlwinds that occasionally 'visit Vienna blew on Wednesday last, causing consi derable damage to chimney-pots and window-panes, and the heads of passers-by. Nothing has been seen like it since the winter of 1848.49, when a hurricane shook the very walls of Vienna. The telegraph suffered on Wednesday, causing a delay in the ar rival of the message conveying the substance of the ministerial motion in the House of Commons respect ing the national defences. From Oderburg, the dis patch dated the 17th had to be forwarded by post, so that it only arrived last night. With respect to these defences, certain organs of the Government here pre tend to sneer at the idea of an invasion of England ; the military preparations by land being merely in tended to keep down the disorderly and riotous at home! THE PRESS IN FRANCE. (From the Literary Gazette.) PARIS, FEB. 18.—President ;Lionsperte has this day promulgated leis long-expected la w on the press. It is of unexampled harshness and oppression. Old Draco himselt, if living in these days, would not have made it so atrociously severe. Is ruins newspaper end periodical proprietors; it strips editors, and writers, and reporters, of the means of obtaining their bread by their honest industry; it altogether annihilates the political press. And not content with this, it prohibits the entrance into France of foreign political journals and periodicals without the special authorisation of the Go vernment—a prohibition expressly levelled at some of your daily contemporaries. The principal enactments of this extraordinary law are as follow :—No political newspaper or periodical can henceforth be started without the formal permission of the Government; neither can any change be made in the pub lishers, principal editors, proprietors, or managers of a journal, without the said permission. Anybody introducing or circulating an unauthorised fereign newspaper is to go to prison for from a month to a year, and is to pay a fine of from 41. to 200/. The caution-money to be deposited previous to the publication of any newspaper or periodical is to be 2,0001. at Paris and Lyons, and less iu some of the departments. The stamp duty is to be six centimes a sheet, and is to be borne by foreign as well as French journals; and books on politics and political economy are to pay the duty, whether foreign or French. Any fraud or irregularity on this point is to be punished by a fine of from 8/. to 2,000/. The postage on newspa pers is to be re-established. Any newspaper publishing a report of parliamentary proceedings, other than that authorised by the President of the Chamber, is to be fined from 401. to 2001. The publication or reproduc tion of false news e., probably all news displeasing to the Government) is to incur a fine of from 2/. to 401.; if done wilfully, of from 201. to 401., with imprison ment of from one ruunth to a year. The publication of unauthorised accounts of the sitting of the Senate and of the Council of State, and of reports of trials of the press, is prohibited under penalty of from 21. to 200/.; if the reports so published be designedly incorreet, there is to be an increase of fine and imprisonment. Every newspaper is to be obliged to insert any article of a public functionary under a penalty of from 21. to 401., and of suspension for fifteen days. The law courts may prohibit newspapers from reporting any criminal or civil case whatsoever. A newspaper condemned once for what is called crime, or twice for simple offences, is to be sup pressed. It can also be suspended without judgment by the Government, and altogether suppressed by decree of the President. Any attempt to revive it under anothername is to entail fines of from 201. to 1201., and imprisonment of from a month to two years, on the editors, publishers, and printers. No man condemned for what the French law calls an infamous offence is to be allowed to:write at all on politics, and any one printing or publishing his lucubration is to pay from 40/. to 2001. The publication of engravings, lithographs, drawings, medals, and em blems, is not to be allowed without previous authorisation under pain of from 4/. to 40/. fine. Booksellers are to be required to have special'. licences to carry on trade, and are to go to prison for from one month to two years, are to pay from -41. to 2001., and are to have their shops closed, if they neglect to obtain them. Finally, all trials relative to offences of the press are no longer to take place with the intervention of a jury, but before the police tribunals. In presence of such enactments as these, it is clear that the political press cannot exist in France. The slightest observation displeasing to the GOV,;llk meat, nay, even the inadvertent publication of a simple paragraph considered offensive, will not only subject editors, publi s h ers , and printers, to heavy fine and lengthened imprisonment, but may cause the suspension or even suppression of their journal or periodical, and that, if the Govermeat so pleases, wilh ont any form of trial or process. Under such a regime the copyrights of newspapers which a few months ago were worth tens of thousands of 'francs, are now lite rally worth notbine. and none but madmen could now think of embark o e f, aleney in newspaper speculation. Is will be observed that the new l aw d oes not ostensi bly touch literary periodieals; but yet it presses as se verely on authors as on regular journalists. And it does so, because in France the newspaper has never been exclu sively a newspaper as ours are—it has always been partly newspaper and partly literary periodical and magazine— political and news-giving in one Part, literary and critical in the jeuilleton. What now can the poor author ceewith his romance or his tale—his sketch of manners, his essay, his biographical etude, his review? There will be no feuilleton to accept it, because fe w news papers win exist, and th ose that do will no longer be able to pay the expense. And as to the existing literary periodical,th ofey too will suffer ?for thee nac t men ts respecting matters politics or social economy," will deprive tteM of all 11- balrty in discussing the questions which now-a-days have , mas t charms for the reader, and will strike at th at ins partant. portion of their contents which consists in th e w o os ti l ete, in a popular form, of the evils of the social sate. As a free press is the first and clearest proof of the libes&y o f a elation, a glance at Prince Bonaparte's new l aw will show every one that France is now in a state of abject and most boht e i r t ine 7 the most r n e g all a y taVery. It is a la mentable thing to say , the truth, that, in a political point of view, t er . e . is at this moment no great difference between the intellitfe h n e t b a la n e d hea h . a minded peo ple of this noble country an d driven to black of a su g ar plantation. One is almost Mist mankind can be nothitig betthr thnn ato th 's e e p o 4 l t as hi i n e . n s s of the gods, when we see such a people subjected to suche a law. A few months ago the number of daily political news. Papers in Paris exceeded thirty ; it now does n)t amount 50 ten, and of these ten some aro certain to disapp ear in the course of a short time. It is a very moderate come putation to suppose that each one of the twenty and odd suppressed jou rna l s gave regular employment at good salaries to ten literary men, as editors, co ntributors, re porters, co rr espendents, or critics, and that each one efferded occasional employment to at least the same number of feuilleto n i s t ee . H er e, then, we have rip,vsrds of twice two hundred men, who, as regards in tf'i ligenCe, are of the elite of society, sud " denly deprived of " th e means w h ere by they lived, w ithout any fault of teen. own. What is to become of them? What of thei r h e l p l ess wives an d fam ilies?

"IS LOW-PRiCEEI GAS CHEAP GAS?" . Under this rather significant and " taking" but not very sensible or logical title, Messrs. John Tams and Company have published a sheet of letter-press, in which they - state their case of complaint against the _,Central .i Gas Consumers' Company for charging them .1 ,7 . 1 . e. da for one year's supply of gas, in place of 129/. I rT charged previously by the Chartered Gas Company. 1 T he gas of the former company, they allege, has less " wer ful p h r e i aLi i ng.troperties than that of the latter; and as their deal more gas than befor e. purposes, they have b o e f f9r gas appears to be for heating y hence required to consume a great this ground they not very correctly conclude, tha e t . as On h gas complained of not necessarily follOw, but rather the s v, li er g y . hti l yields leas heat, it must also yield . le e do not mean to constitute ourselves s which contrary. lv e the Central Gas Company, •howeverr y T es p e le u a n d s e e r e s m fo l r proposal of amalgamation with an antagonist to whom y they stood opposed as consumers against monopoly and overcharge, and who made desperate endeavours to destroy them as such—at once threw a stain of suspi cion oa them which eould•not bat cause a withdrawal:of confidenee from them. For all that we know, their gas may be inferior in every respect to the Chartered Com pany's equally cheap, or " low priced" rather, be it noted —nay, according to Messrs.

IN THE MATTER OF THE JOINT-STOCK COMPANIES' WINDING-UP ACTS, 1848 AND 1849, AND OF THE EASTERN C )UNTIES AND SOUTH-END RAILWAY COM PANY, EX PARTE CAUSToN, Mr. HALINS , ind Mr. ROXBURGH moved to diicharge an order of the Master, by whleh the name of Mr. Cans ton had been placed on the list of contributories of the above comotny. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Counsel that Mr. Causton had been secretary to the above company, which was one of the various rail way projects which failed in the year 1848 ; that the company was to consist of 22,000 shares, all of which were allotted; and that Mr. Canston had applied for 50 shares, but that he had not had any allotted to him, on a c count of their having been all previously allotted to other persons. Mr. Causton had, however, signed the subscription contract, in common with about 14 or 15 allottees of shares, to whom the deposits which they paid in respect of their shares (about 500 in number) had been returned by the directors. The official ma nager claimed to have Mr. Causton's name placed on the list of contributories on the ground of his having exe cuted the subscription contract, but it was contended, on Mr. Causton's behalf, that he had executed the deed only because he had been desired to do so by the di rectors, and not as a shareholder, and that even if he had executed it in the latter capacity, he had done so on the faith of its being executed by all who had under taken to do it. It was insisted that the deed was in fact a nullity, and had been always treated as such by the directors. Mr. Daniel and Mr. Wordsworth, of the common law bar, a ppeared for the o ffi cial manager, but they were not called upon to address the Court. His HONOUR said he thought Mr. Canton was bound by the deed which he had executed. There was nothing alleged to induce him to treat it as void on the ground of fraud. The motion, therefore, must be refused, and with costs. U at R O T QUEEN'S BENCH. Feb. 25. Sittings Nisi F Priuo, before Lord CAMPBELL and a Special Jury.) THE QUEEN V. KINCAID AND ANOTHER. Mr. James, Q.C., Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Par r y ap peared for the Crown; Sir A. E. Cockburn, Mr. Cham bers, Q.C., Mr. Huddlestone, and Mr. Combo, for Kin caid; and Mr. Crowder, Q.C., Mr. Collier, and Mr. Prentice for the other defendant, Were. The defendants Charles Henry Kincaid and Nicholas Were were indicted for conspiring, by means of fraud and sham sale, to cheat the creditors of a Mrs. Kincaid, and also for conspiring to hinder the course of justice by making a false affidavit in Doctors -commons. There was another set of counts, which charged a conspiracy to defraud Atohibald Mnwatt, who was entitled to one-third of the estate of Mrs. Kincaid. The deceased Mrs. Kincaid was the lessee of a house known as Simpson'e Chophouse and Coffeehouse in Cornhill. She died on the 2d of October, 1851, leaving three children, the defendant C. H. Kincaid, Who had for merly been in practice as an attorney; Mary Ann Kin caid; living with her at the time of her death; and another daughter married to Mr. Mewett. The charge egainst the son was that , ho conspired with the other defendant, Were. an attorney at Plymouth, to defraud the creditors of Mrs. Kincaid, and also hie sister. Mrs. Mowatt, by getting administration of the effects of his deceased mother, and dieposing of the same to Were at a much smaller sum than the property was worth. Mrs. Kincaid was entitled to the lease of the chophouse fern, unexpired, term of 14 years, and, the takings being stated to be about 201. a-day. the lease, goodwill, and furniture were estimated to be worth from 4,000/. to 6,000/. On Mrs. Kincaid's death, which took place on the 2d of Oc tober, 1851, Mrs. Mowatt wrote to the defendant Were. at Plymouth, to inquire whether he had not made a will for the late Mrs. Kincaid, and on the 4th of October re ceived an answer stating that be had prepared 'inch a will, and that atter seeing it executed in the presence of two witnesses he left it in her castody. Search was tben made for this will, but it was not found; but another will, in the handwriting of Were, was found in Miss M. A. Kincaid's dressing-case , which, however, had no signature. On the mother's death the defendant C. H. Kincaid came home from Paris to his mother's house, where his sister M. A. Kincaid was residing, and required all the keys to be given. up to him, which was done accordingly. The deceased died very much in debt, to the extent of several thousand pounds, and the creditors, it was alleged, were defrauded by the defendants in the following manner:—Kincaid made an affidavit at Doctors'-commons that he was the natural and only child of the deceased, though he had two sisters living, and one was residing in the house with him at the time, and thus obtained letters of administration to the *estate of his mother. This affidavit was made on the 10th of October. The defendant Were and another per son, named Dunwick, were the sureties in the adminis tration bond. The defendant Kincaid then employed Messrs. Blake and Poole, who convened the creditors of Mrs. Kincaid to a meeting on the 20th of Ootober, to receive a statement of the effects of the deceased. On that day the creditors met, but, instead of receiving a statement, they were informed that the property had been sold to the defendant Were for the sum of 1,8001., and that the proceeds had been applied to paying off 7761. due upon a mortgage upon the promises, and one or two other claims upon the deceased, the principal part of which was a claim of 638/. alleged to be due to Dun wick. It appeared, however, that Dunwick was not paid. A lease of the property was then granted for one year to the sister, Miss Kincaid, at a rent of 30s. a day, and the defendant Kincaid continued in the house and carried on the business. Kincaid's defence was, that the false statement in the affidavit was a mistake made either by the proctor or the defendant, and that, so far from being guilty of an in tention to defraud, the defendant had dono all he could to protect the interest of his sick sister, who, but for his assistance, would have been wholly unprovided for. Witnesses were called who proved that the mortgage was paid, and that Dunwick had a large claim upon the deceased as a judgment creditor. ee• ware's defence was, that he was altogether innocent of any par ticipation in any f rau d u l en t ac t of his client, if such had been committed ; and as to the will, he had s i mp ly made a mistake when he said he saw it duly executed, a mistake which arose from the fact that he had drawn it up in regular form with the attestation . , 1, 4 01800. Witnesses were Called who spoke highly of •the cha both the defendants.

In so doing his Lordship took oc casion, to remark that the admission of parties - to the witness-box seemed to him to be the logical and necessary consequence of the previous alterations in the law of evidence, and while it might -be admitted to have been both necessary and proper, it certainly rendered the duty of a juryman more difficult, for the Parties were generally' diametrically opposed to each other in their recollection and construction of facts. The change also necessarily led to increased litigation, , for where new witnesses and means of proof were intro duced, new actions must spring up, and cases were brought-into court which but for the new law would . never, have been thought of. Without saying that this vial such a case, it was clear that' . the jury had a diffi cult task before them when called upon to decide :be tween the plaintiff and the defendant, and he would add, that as th e result of h i s exper i ence o f t h e wor ki ng o f this Act, he had come to the opinion that it would be highly desirable, if not absolutely necessary, - that a fur ther change in the law should be made by extending the operation o f the Statute of Frauds, now l i m i te d to c o n tracts to the va l ue of 104, to every species of contra ct . so that tran s actions into writing , about which there cou ld not all parties s h o uld be compelled to reduce t heir aftersvards arise any question. found a The j ury, at the close of the summ i ng tip, verdict for the defendant. . , .

Lk tho bankrupt "ma a mall builder at Woolwich, and bad 7 7 0 a V EVENING, built a considerable number of small houses, and when the failure took place, two years and a half ago, there was great depreciation in the value of property of that description. The case was different now, as one house, which was formerly valued at 2001., had sold for 20/. more. The expenditure of the bankrupt bad been very moderate indeed, as in two years and a half the total expenses were only 2271 Finding he could not go on, he came to the court on his own petition. The dividend would be re spectable, and he thought this a case deserving a certi ficate of a high class. In reply to the COMMISSIONER, Mr. PEARCE, for the assignees, said they did not offer any opposition. His Hottous said this was a better case than builders' eases generally were, but he did not think it was a case entirely of unavoidable loss. The certificate would be of the second class. He would remark that the accounts were considerably better than small builders' usually were. An immediate certificate of the second class was granted IN RE BESWICK. This was also a certificate sitting in the matter of M, Beswick, wine and porter merchant, Norwich. A certificate in this case was granted without opposi tion. The bankruptcy took place prior to classification. CENTRAL CRLYLIN AL COURT. OLD COURT. Before Mr. Justice Wn.masis and Mr. Justice Ctiosirrow.) Henry Woolf, 29, and Isaac Lyons, 29, described as dealers, were indicted under the Bankrupt Law Conso lidation Act for misdemeanour, in having unlawfully obtained goods upon credit three months before their bankruptcy, under the pretence that they required such goods for the purpose of carrying on their trade, with intent to defraud. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Bagley were counsel for the prosecution; Mr. Clarkson and Mr. liuddlestone were counsel for the defendants. The oircumitances connected with the charge were fully detailed in the report of the trial last session, when the defendants were indicted for a similar offence and acquitted. It appeared upon that occasion that the de fendants had set up in business as umbrella and parasol manufacturers in June or July, 1850, having at that time not more than 300/. capital, and that. they became bankrupts in November, 1851, the amount of their debts being 5,400/., and the assets not much more than 1,5001, and it was represented that a sum of 3,0001. seas totally unaccounted for. The prosecutors of the former indict ment were Messrs. Ellis and Everington. and it wi.es shoWn that on the 27th of September the defendantA bud, obtained silks from them to the amount of 7001., which were disposed of two days afterwards at a considerable reduction on the cost price, and that the defendants bed also for a long period been in the habit of pawning the silks they obtained ostensibly for the purposes of their business. The prosecutors of the present indictment .were ..Messrs, Foote, wholesale silk merchants in Spital-square, and the evidence in support of the chargo went to show that during the months of Sip tember and October, prior to the bankrup , cy, the defon dan: o'otsined silk to the amount of 700/. from Mee.ca. Foote, .the greeter part of which appeared to have been pawned by theni almost immediately afterwards, anti when they failed they were indebted to the prosecn tors.to the amount of 2,300/. In order to'shoiv the frau dulent intention of the defendants, evidence was gi',lon thet they hadmade false' representations to the prose cutors.vitila regard, to the amount of their capital, and also as to the state of their affairs when they took stock in July; and it was likswiso. proved that they had ob tained a, fere qaantity of silk from Mr.. Pawkier), a. warehousemen in St. Pe.ul's Churchyard, which was &so pawned very soon after it came into their hands. Ir appeared, however, in cross-(•xamination, that the deal-. ings of the defendants with Mr. Foote had been of a very extensive character, and that`they had paid him between 4,0001. and 5,000/. for goods curing the fourteen mouths they were in business, and that they had employed so many as thirty or forty persons in their manufactory up to the very moment of their bankruptcy, and that they had supplied goods to a very considerable amount to Messrs. Ellis and . Everington during September and October, and that they had also made large payments to Messrs. Foote for several months before their bankruptcy, and nearly up to the time of ifs taking place, 'and had reduced the extent of their original debt to a very considerable •amount. It was also eli cited, as on the former trial, that after the bankrupts had signed a declaration of insolvency Mr. Foote, who was appointed the trade assignee,had sold the whole of their stock by private tender at a reduction of 45 per cent. upon the price at which the goods had been voiced to the defendants, so that property of the nominal value of 1,8001. did not realize much more than 1,000/. It likewise appeared with regard to the goods that bad been obtained from Messrs. Pawson, that a portion of the silk bad actually been made up into parasols and umbrellas, and that upon various occasions the defen ' dents had redeemed silk which - they had pledged, and had used in their business afterwards. Mr. Creannsole addressed the jury with considerable warmth on the part of the defendants, who, he said, he . considered had been very harshly dealt with in being compelled to go through the .ordeal of a second trial, when the whole of the facts were fully gone into on the former occasion, and the jury had ex pressed their opinion that there was no foundation for the charge that was made against them. He contended that there was not the slightest pretence for saying that the defendants had obtained these goods by the false representation that they required them for the purposes of their trade, but, on the contrary, a!1 the evidence in the case went to show that they were carrying on their business honestly, and that it•was only owing to a temporary pressure that they felt themselves compelled to raise money upon the gooOs they had, pur chased. Ile said it appeared to him thee all that could be alleged against the defendants was that ,tees b ad been unfortungte, but he trusted the jury would not lend themselves to this attempt to render them amen-, ' able to the provisions of a highly penal Act of Par liament, merely because they were not able to pay their debts. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS having summed up, and 'ex plained to the jury the points upon which they were , required to give their decision, they deliberated for about a quarter of an hour, and then returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Mr. BAGLEY said there was another indictment aga inst the defendants, having referen ce to the goods obtained from Mi. Pawson, hut, after the verdict that had just been given, he did not feel that he ought to pro ceed with it. A verdict of ' Not Guilty was accordingly taken, and tbt defendants were ordered to be at once discharged. The ;trial lasted nearly the whole day, and was not concluded until half-past seven o'clock. • , ; NEW COURT. , (Before the RECORDER.) James Kimbtr, axt,effeminata looking youth, with col, lar turned down in the Byronic style, surrendered to t a u ° his trial for feloninuily shooting at William Crutch ley, with intent to kill and murder him. There wore silt other counts in the indictment, varying the form in whitth the offence was charged. Mr. Ballantine and Mr: Robinson prosecuted; and Mr. Bndkin defended. f Ttle'Learned Counsel having stated the case, called William Crutchley, a ladl4 years (tag°, who stated that the prisoner was an acquaintance of his. Witness liied with his parents in Ampthill-place, Rotherhithe, ttnd was a clerk in the London Docks. Prisoner also lived with his friends, and was a teaoher at a school. On ,the evening of the 13th of January the prisoner called upon him at his father's house and asked him to accompany him to the house of a mutual friend named Stebbins. 'He did so; and when Stubbing came out pri. soner said to witness, " Now, am I liar?" Witness said, " If I have said so, you have often called me one, and I hafe not thought anything about it." He .then put something; into my face twice, and I tut* it was/a pistol. Witness was much frightened and stood still, and prisoner a third time put it to his; face, hold ing him by the collar all the time,. and at last fired it. Witness felt a sharp, pain on his cheek and nearly fainted; they, then alt three ran different ways, and wit ness was ultimately, taken to the doctor's.

The prisoner then joined his friends and was led out of court in an hysterical state. In the course of the day the grand jury were dis charged. They presented a memorial, praying for the abolition of the grand jury system. THIRD COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) Thomas Connor, 24. cabman, and William Watts, 24. labourer, were indicted for stealing a banknote tor 101,, and 101. in moneys, the property of James Ritchie, from his person. Mr. Trevethan Spicer prosecuted, and Mr. Birnie de fended Watts. It appeared that the prosecutor, who is a draper's assistant at present out of a situation, and a friend named Jones, a sharebroker, residing in Angel - terrac e, Isling ton, were out together early on the morning of the 28th of January, and about half-past 3 they were at the White Hart, in the Strand. Both parties were the worse for liquor, and Mr. Jones then wished to go ho me, but Ritchie refused, and finally Mr. Jones got into a cab and left, and before leaving gave back to prosecutor his pocketbook and the money in question, which he had taken from him for security. Prosecutor put the book and the money into his inside breast coat pocket. Mr. Jones then left him, and went away in the cab. Prose cutor again went into the public-house, followed by the two prisoners, who had been witnesses of what had passed. Shortly afterwards Watts went and fetched a cab from the rank facing Somerset-house, in the Strand, and upon the driver coming up to the White Hart the presecutor got in and Watts got on the box, but the cab driver did not see Connor, though the police on duty, to whom the prisoners were known, saw him slip into the cab. The prosecutor told the cab man to drive them as far as St. Paul's. He drove them as far as Watling-street, when Watts got down from the box, and Connor from inside, and they told the cabman that the gentleman inside would pay, and they then walked away. The cabman instantly got down from the box and looked inside the cab, and found the prosecutor in the cab in a stupified state, and after some trouble aroused him. Prosecutor seemed somewhat surprised, and nNked where his two friends were; the cabman said they were gone. Prosecutor then felt in his coat pocket, aro said that he had been robbed. They then went t . ,) a friend of the prosecutor's, and thence to the principal police stations, and there gave information of the rob bery, and tee prisoners were subsequently apprehended tit their lodgings in' Seven Dials, where they both lived in the same room. None of the money was found, but it was proved that on the day after the robbery the pri soner Connor bought two new hats, one for himself and ;.nether for Watts, Connor paying for both. Mr. BIRNIE c , ,ot , ?nded that Watts, who had been a pothoy - at the White Hart, and was in the habit of 'etching cabs, had not done more than was cansiltem with innocence. The jury Acquitted Watts and found Connor Guilty. The police proved that Connor was a known and des perate thief, but up to this time bad escapA conv i ct i on , ho having been no less than six times in custody for eimilar felonies. The prisoner was ordered to be transported for seven years. James Logic, 45, dealer, who had been convicted of firging and uttering a bill of esehange, was brought up for sentence. The COMMON-SERGEANT to ld the p risoner that a few years ago his liie would h ave p aid the penalty of his offence. lie Was transported for seven years. William Souihwell, 28, mariner, was indicted for un lawfully assaulting James Harman Crisp, and attempt ing to drown him in the river Thames. The facts of this case have been so very recently be fore the public that it is unnecessary to repeat them. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of an assault. The CommoN-SERQBANT said that under those cir cumstances he should order the prisoner to be imprisoned for one month, and kept to hard labour. INTELLIGENCE. NOR A Carli.vle, Feb. 24. In the Nisi Pr ius Court one s p ecial jury Calllo re mained to be tried this morning. There not bwiug suf ficient special jurymen present, and both sides refusing to pray a tales, the record was withd rawn. Mr. Justice Cresswell then tried one or two larceny cases. In the Crown Court a charge of rape by a boy, as sisted by four other boys, on a woman at least 35 years o f age , the particulars of which are unfit for publica tion, and two or three trivial larceny eases, occupied the Court till the afternoon, when the business of the as sizes terminated. Their Lordships proceed to-morrow morning to New castle. MIDLANI ClRCUlT.—Northampton, Feb. 25. (Bator° Mr. Justin° MAULS and a Common Jury., EALES V. WILCOX. This was an action for obstructing a right of way. Mr Sergeant Miller and Mr. Flood appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Humfrey, Q.C., and Mr. Hayes for defendant. The plaintiff was a shoemaker at Towcester, occupy ing a house in Tranter's-row, a plaee only accessible from the High-street by a lane, along which the right of way in question was claimed. The defendant was the owner and occupier of a house at the entrance of the lane from High-street, and he had erected against the side' of his house a lean-to, which considerably nar rowed the passage, and that was the obstruction of which the plaintiff complained.' "The plaintiff's wife carried on the business of a laundress, and in conse quence of the obstruction the passage of trucks very fully laden was prevented, and persons carryieg buckets of water were obliged to enter sideways. Still, it was admitted that higher up the lane, and nearer the plaintiff's house, there was a part of it as narrow as the entrance left by the defendant's encroachment; and the defendant relied upon some evidence of interruptions for the purpose of showing that . there was, in fact, no right o f way over the whole width of the lane. The jury, however, after retiring for a short time, flied a verdict for the plaintiff—damages Is.; and the Learned Judge certified that the action was brought to try a r i ght. , The J..ORD CHIEF JUSTICE, after attending Divine ser vice, proceeded to charge the grand jury; and was after wards during the rest of the day engaged in trying pri soners, but none of the cases disposed of were of a serious charaotet.

They were both remanded for further inquiry, • , ' WORSHIP-STREBT. . at Anse Murray, a middle-aged woman, was placed the bar betore Mr. thiamin, charged with the following brutal outrage upon her idiot daughter. The prisoner and her husband lived in a place called Eastman's -buildings, Old Montague-street, Whitechapel, arid it appeared from the evidence of one of their ne st b ou rs that both of , them had been fors long time pa in the vabit of most cruelly treating their unfortunate daughter, a girl of fifteen, and for no other reason, se it seemed, than that she was an idiot and perfectly help less. On Saturday evening the prisoner tend three or four uc quaintancci, of hers were d r inking together in the house of the former, when, for some reason which (lid not appear, the prisoner conawnced such a violent om a tt a ck upon tie.) pour girl that, to escape fr ,her cruelt y( she rushed into the street. This, -however, did , , not „avail her, for the prisoner pur sued her ift a state of furious drunkenness, renewed the attack upon Iter, struck her to the ground with a violent blow in the tteee and as soon as s he had hilen kicked her with. s uc h 'brutality about the body and head that :the:liesh of the unfortunate creature's forehead was laid open to a grdtit-lengtb and depth,. the bleed poured from the wound in great profusion, and she was e so stunne erd and ameba sasto be incapable of giant; Th Prim still continued her illusage, but a policeman, who bad been apprised of the occurrence by one of the neighbours, fortunately came up at the moment, and after thrusting the prisoner away from her victim, raise d the latter from the pavement, and was about to have ber removed to the shop of a neighbouring surgeon, when the prisoner again rushed at her, and it was only with great e difficulty that the ocer could prtect er from hr outraous lence. ffi The girl was o then intrusted to the care ge of one of the bystanders, and the prisoner secured, but even at the station she renewed her vio lent behaviour until locked up in one of the cells , acknowledging that girl was her own child, and that she had struck her over the head, but displaying great vindictiveness and exasperation against her, calling her a little devil and fool, and declaring that she would kill her the first opportunity that presented itself. The wretched object of the prisoner's cruelty we e , here placed in the witness-box to g ive evidence, but although Mr. Hammili took great pains to elicit some of the facts from her, it was impossible to do so. her answers being confined to jerking negatives and affir m tives, and although her head was partially covere d with surgical bandages, proving the violence she had been subjected to, she denied that she had been illused at nail the She appeared dwarfish and attenuated , and anLee younger than she was stated to be, and stared about court with an absent vacuity, continually thrusting into her mouth a hunch of bread, which she devoured with much avidity and relish. The circumstances attending the outrages hoseaver, were clearly established by the testimony of reaPe ett; able-looking young woman named Harriette Spiel% Hazzard, a constable of the H division, described tue condition of the girl when he came up, and found h .i. er , as before stated, stretched totally insensible upo n her pavement, and the blood gushing from a gash i s forehead. When called upon for ' her answer to the charge the pr i sone r entered upon a long and disjointe d statalneeb' wholly irrevalent to the evidence against her, the t i l s . of which she stoutly denied, and demanded that a "t ness should be called to refute it; the person else Inee' tioned was therefore called , b ut did not a pp ear; and - Ma. HAsisula. asked the officer if he had coMnitte cated the facts of the case to the pariah officers, by conceived it one that ought to have b een pressor . them. The officer replied that he had mentioned itLs one of the authorities of the parish, that he had net 1 ; t ; calved a positive answer either way, and the Insgi 6 , tre o p after characterising it es one of the most unnatural olim rages that had come under his notice, and expree el di a his regret that the powers he was invested with w° loo .. not allow him to punish the woman more severelb it, to tented her to pay the full penalty of 51., or in stand committed for two months to the House of v" recti ‘n. Neither the prisoner nor her husband could Prne ere ,., the money by the close of the court, and she Was tiler° fore carried away in the van. THE COUNTRY MARKETS. .
