ADELAIDE GALLERY. Amongst the varied entertainments with which the numerous visitors of this beautiful theatre of amusement and instruction are daily delighted and improved, there were on Thursday evening two musical performances which call for an especial notice. Mr. A. B. Sedgwick performed a solo upon the " Con certina," consisting of brilliant variations on an Irish and a Tyrolese melody, in a masterly style and with magni ficent effect, which elicited universal and long-continued applause, and was vehemently encored. This novel and truly beautiful -instrument is scarcely as much known, certainly not appreciated, as it deserves to be. Its tone, at least in the hands of such a master as Mr. Sedgwick, is inferior to none. Its compass is scarcely more limited than that of the violin, nor do its harmonies seem to be less perfect than those of the less plastic instrument, em phatically styled the " Table of Harmony." Mr. L. Emanuel performed upon the piano (with Mr. Sedgwick's accompaniment upon the Concertina) A new " Divertimento," composed by himself, in honour of the Prince of Wales, entitled, " 'rhe Royal Fireside." The composition is at once classical and imaginative, and the admirable execution with which the author, on this occa sion, presented it to his enraptured audience, could scarcely be surpassed. The piece was encored amidst enthusiastic applause. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE AND FEMALE HEROISM. BAYONNE, Dsc. 3.—There is one of the refugees who has at last succeeded in reaching the French territory, the history of whose escape is of a romantic nature, and well illustrates the superioriy of female courage and re solution in the hour of danger. The name of the individual alluded Lois Don Eulogio Barbero Quintero. His family having been known to the President of the Provisional Government named by the insurgents in the city of Vittoria, he was ap pointed secretary to the Junta formed for the pur • pose of arming and defending the province of Alava, and was employed .by Mentes de Oca in drawing up reports and other documents connected with the in tended defence of the city against the troops of the Government, but more particularly against those of Martin Zurbano. Quintero is a young man, about 25 years old, and is possessed of much intelligence, and has received a good education. In his person he is under the middle size, slight and gracefully made • but his features are expressive of int e ll ec t, an d o f muc h determination. After the resolution come to by the Junta not to defend the city against the approaching army of Rodil, Quin tero saw that all was over ; yet he was still unwilling to fly ; and it was not until he beheld the total change which had come over the minds of the population, and until he heard a price set on the head of the unfortunate , Montes de Oca, that he felt it would be the act of a madman to await the fate which he knew would be re served for all who had distinguished themselves so much in the insurrection as he had done. It was not, however, until after the departure of his chief from Vittoria that Quintero made an effort to escape. He set out from Vit toria by night, and gained the mountains of Guipuscoa, in the direction of Salinos. His intention was to have passed along the chain which separates Guipuscoa from Navarre, called the "Sierra de Aralur, to have crept on towards Goyzueto, thence to Vera, Urdax, and finally into the French territory. After many difficulties, he succeeded in arriving as far as Goyzeeta. It was a few days after the death of Mu nagprri, and the terrible Chapelgorri, Elorrio, was hover ing about these passes. Quintero was ignorant of the incident which had taken place in the neighbourhood a short time before, and which terminated in the death of the Fuerist leader. As he was leaving Goyeueta at day break, he was discovered by one of the Chapelgorries, and delivered up to the Chief. Prayers and entreaties were of no avail, nor yet bribes ; for who cver heard that Elorrio was turned aside from his purpose by sup plications or by money ? He was led to St. Sebastian, lodged in the citadel, and in a few days conduCted back to Vittoria; and there he remained in hopeless captivity until the night of the 21st of November. His cause had been already formed, and his trial was to come on on the 24th, before the Military Commission. Not having been - a military insurgent, and not having taken any pro minent part, as' chief or leader, in the rebellion, he at first thought that the'extremepenalty of the la w wou ld not be in fl icted on him. But in this hope he was de ceiving himself; he was inf orme d t h at there wis but little cance of' escape for an individual who had held such close relation with the chief of the rebels. Quintero had been married about a year previously to a young lady, named Juana de Areito, a native of Eybar in the province of Guipuscoa, who has not as yet com pleted her twenty-first year. She was one of those heroic young women who, in 1834, when her native town was attacked by Zabala, in the commencement of the civil war, assisted the Christino troops so materially in its defence. She was then only fourteen years-old, and the service she rendered was that of placing her self on her knees in the. centre of a square of soldiers, and supplying them with ammunition, filling their pouches so as to prevent a moment being lost, whilst showers of bullets were flying about her, and men fell dead on every side. When the tidings of her husband's danger reached her, she at once fanned the determination of saving, or of perishing with him whom she doated on to distraction. The cell in which Quintero was confined was small and narrow. The door was always left open, and a sentinel was placed at the entrance in order to keep the prisoner constantly in sight ; another was stationed at the outer gate, and a third kept guard at the street-door. To reach his dungeon it was necessary to pass these three doors, one of which was formed of iron bars. The prisoner had been forhidden to hold communication with any prisoner whatever ; and his wife's application to see and visit him had been sternly refused. The poor young woman went to the prison-door several times every day with her baby in In r arms, and as often returned after vain supplications for admittance, with a heart br ea ki ng in anguish. The only person allowed to enter the cell where the prisoner was confined was a young girl, who brought him his meals, and only 20 minutes were allowed for dinner and supper. The former meal was taken at mid-day, and the latter in the evening. At 7 o'Clock in the evening of the 21st of November, a young female came to the outer door of the prison, with a basket under her arm, which was partially concealed under a large coarse shawl flung across her shoulders ; a red handker chief was bound about her head, in the fashion of the Alavese peasant girls, and her costume was, otherwise, that of the criadas, or servant girls of Vittoria. She de manded permission, in the usual manner, to enter with the prisoner's supper. The sentinel at the gate referred her to the serg eant of the guard. F or t una t e l y t h e com pany which h ad previously been on duty was changed that same day, and the general orders for their guidance referred only to the admission twice a day of the bearer of the prisoner's mea l s , b ut did not g i ve any specific de scription of the personal appearance of the bearer. After undergoing the coarse jests and brutal allusions of the soldiers of the guard on her selection of so advanced an hour, when night had already commenced, to visit the prisoner, she was allowed to enter, and was successively passed from one sentinel to another, until she reached the cell of the captive. By some awkwardness, or, more probably by design, she threw down the small iron lamp, which was suspended from the door-frame, and by means of which the soldier stationed at the entrance, which was always left open, might have a partial view of his charge. The moment they were left in darkness, and whilst the sentinel proceeded to the second gate to light the lamp, she addressed the young man,—" My beloved Eu logio, lose not a moment, throw off your coat, put on my clothes whilst I bind this h andkerch i ef a b out your head; take this basket, in which my poor baby is asleep, and fly —fly fo r the love of God ! You will give the child to an old woman, whom you will find waiting at the Bil bao gate. Provided that you and my child are out of all danger, lam ready to suffer death in your place. Speak not a word ; every moment is precious. You only lose time by attempting to resist or refuse, for I have come here with a deternaination which if neither you nor any one else can chancre. Farewell and Ido not thank the Regent will esc escape un ha rmed, y tom y husband, we willsho ot me for my 10 . e meet a gain m ; if not, Eulogao, think of me when I shall be in poor baby is not gr ave, and love our child—the morye t ha n six weeks old. Hush ! speak not, the sentinel is here w ith th e _ lamp." her r Quintero made an effort to chang e she would listen to no argument. lie d e i s d ol a u s tio sh n e , but quested, and in the course of a few nainutee he had r u e ; shawl, and handkerchief, and she wrapped on her gown, gate they re - herself up in his cloak. In order to prevent any sti4*- cion on the part of the soldiers of the was proceed ing together the usual time allowed for the repast, and Eulogio then took up the basket, covered it with his shawl, and passed the first sentine l. . As he gate the child awoke, and t ing towards the outer vent its cries from being noticed, the father began to sing, in a loud voice, an old Basque ba llad. Providence however, decreed that the interruption should not be noticed, and he at length succeeded in reaching t h e street.' He *at once proceeded to the gate indicated ; found there the- old woman, whom he recog nised as having been his wife's nurse ; gave the child to her, and, without a moment's delay, made for the mountains. Eight days he remained wanderitg amongst those tremendous 'asses, ; with, no clothing but his pantaloons and shirt,- and his fat and hands torn by the brushwood in which he was obliged, froni time to time, to conceal himself frotri,' the parties of military whom he was constantly encountering. He had not less than 24 leagues to travel before he could reach the fron. tier, and his food, during the whole- of the painful jour ney, was a morsel of bread and a draught of water or eider, given him by the poor peasants near whose habi tations he found himself, and who, though knowing he was flying from the avenger, never once thought of be traying him. • ( in reaching, in 4:t state of dreadful exhaustion, the Bidassea, he found; that the left bank was occupied in "every part b y t h e S pan i s h sold i ers, who had even seized the boats to hinder the refugees from crossing. Being In a state of destiCration he plunged into the river, care . less whether lit; was shot or drowned. As if some supe rior will hart'ilecreed that the noble and heroic act, prompted bylihre conjugal l ove, should not pass without its due rew art - Quintero succeeded in gaining the oppo- - site bask, 6 ' 4. part lie had selected being fordable, the water reaching only to his middle, neither was he seen by the Spaniards, On arriving on the French territory lie knelt down , and in the enthnsiasfetric his of e gratitnde returned thanks to Heave n onne the day before s safe t y. 11 arrived in Bay yesterday. Up to two o'clo c k. erhehad received no ac est d count of his wife, and ,y est erday continues,to h er as yet, in a state of indescribable anxiety as fate. There can be no doubt, however, of her Ultimate safety, and of her s p ee dy reunion with the object o love. Martin Zurbano himself could not find it in his heart to do otherwise than reward such an act of noble fidelity. The young lady who h as thus- ' distingui s h e d herself belongs to an ancient and respectable fam ily in Guipus con. She is young, beautif u l , as are th e grater part of the females of her native p rov i nce, of t he middle size, blight, and exquisitely formed is her person. MORNING SUN SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. F.

Mr. Wilson, of the Theatres Royal, delivered the first of a series of Lectures on Scottish Song and Music on Friday evening, at the Music-hall in Store-street, Bedford-square. The chief charm of the songs and music of Scotland, said Mr. Wilson, was their undeviating and exquisite simplicity. This was doubtless owing to the sources from which they sprang. The shepherds of the hills who first piped " upon the oaten straw or pastoral quill," and among the " bells sweet-jangled " of their woolly flocks, first produced those simple airs which have tradi tiOnally descended to our times. Historic chronicles of the earliest eras make mention of this primitive music, and the Lecturer with candour observed, that while in Scotland, melodies of a very ancient period floated early, among their vales, England had been equally precocious, and Gerald Cambrensis cited many instances of playings upon harps and tabrets. Washington Irving remarked that the Scotch song and music were marked by " brilliant melancholy." Allan Ramsay had pressed their flowers of melody with unequivocal delight to his heart, and originated - many of them him self. Walter Scott pronounced them to be more precious than " cairns of gold or gems of lustre." Clerical puritanism has, in some instances, denounced Scotch song and music, but hearty piety has in more in stances found religious exercises and devotions greatly aided by it. The names of many great and excellent clergymen could be recounted who had used it as their best consolation. Of foolish excommunications against it, a very old case of John Muir was in existence " for that he in the Church had piped," &c. The said delin quent was cited before the Presbytery for his first offence, and on its repetition was severely censured and threatened with excomnrunication. One old clerical, however, the Lecturer knew, who constantly hung his watch in the evening about- his candle, that he might sedulously play till the hands touched twelve. A short time since, too, a clergyman of his acquaintance was heard by his parishioners to be a player on the "fiddle." His congregation were shocked, and accordingly waited on their pastor to remonstrate on his heinous custom. With difficulty they opened the cause of their call, but at last made him understand about the " fiddle." The reverend accordingly produced the instrument— a fine robust old violoncello, and in their presence drew some grand old church-music from its strings with his bow. The testy religionists were charmed. " Hoot," said one, " it's a fine gorse fiddle, not a little kit that they carry in their pockets for jigs ; it's a second fiddle ; let him play on it on Sunday in the congregation." The Scotch songs appear to have at first been mostly national, intended to stir up courage against the foemen of their hills and borders ; and it is a sin gu l ar fact that the language of th e Engish and the Scotch lorimers was almost the same. Love, the passion that sways all ages and all breasts, was of course the creator of multi tudes ; Burns owned that it was from love that first he " rhymed and sang." King James the Fifth of Scotland is mentioned by English chroniclers to have been " the prince and prelate of all harpers," and he was accounted excellent of skill on the psaltery and organ. • Scotch airs, it is singular to remark, are chiefly com posed by omitting the fourth and seventh notes in the scale, 'by which also the music of Caledonia is found very nearly to approach to the ancient Dorian of the Greek Church music. James Clarke makes an observa tion that by playing only on the black keys of the harp sichord, a variety of Scotch tunes may be produced, while another has said, in reference to their unsophisti cated simplicity, that an animal might produce them by scrambling haphazard on the keys. ' Mr. Wilson now proceeded to illustrate his lecture with a selection of songs and airs that laid claim to equal antiquity and simplicity. His voice was heard to great advantage within the limited compass of the music-room. The sweetness of his tenor was sometimes truly exquisite, and the finer intonations educed by his songs were charmingly soft - and mild. " Thou'rt gane away from me, Mary," was powerfully-toned in the rising inflections of the voice, and winningly sweet in the cadent movements. To the modern set of " The Flowers of the Forest" some curious reminiscences at tached, and the .words appear to have been composed on the occasion of the breaking up of seven Lairds of Rox burghshire, all of whom became insolvent in a single year : the ancient set of the same song, which was very lugubrious of tone after the above, was found in the Skene M.S. in the Advocate's Lib rary at Edinburgh, was the composition of one Hearers, who, in the time of James 11., was a Clerk of Session, an office held in later days by Sir W. Scott • it was discover e d in the Library by James Grahame, who after wards translated it for ordinary instruments, it having been originally noted for the lute. In the sequent song, the repetition of the words " Wally, wally," was the most pathetically exquisite expression in music that ear ever heard. " Woo'd and married an a', " is a truly beauti ful thing, and the archness of mannerism and voice in fused into it by the singer gave great delight. The re fractoriness of the little maiden refusing to accept " Johnny," having in expectation a brighter prize —the chiding of her mother the gudewife—the half-surprise. half-indignation of her father—the voice of "Johnny" at her side, telling her of past loves and her " blinking blue e'en"—her confusion and touched feelings like Cole ridge's "Genevieve," at length described as conquering her, till " she blinkit sae sweet in his face," that Johnny was blest and the marriage consummated. Bruce's well known address, the words of which are by Burns, was sung by Mr. Wilson, with great power. It appears that the war-tune to which it is set, was accompanied formerly by other words, namely, " llow now day dawnes," which Bishop Gawin Douglas and Dunbar mention in their old histories. Mr. - Wilson proposed that in singing it as no .v adopted, an improvement would be effected if the fall at the end of the fourth line were sustained, but with deference to the talented vocalist's judgment his emen dation appeared to remove the falling harmony which is a great beauty. His execution of the song itself, would rouse courage in stone ; it rang with defiance. " Tak yer auld cloak aboot ye," in those intermediate passages where the sweet, thin, tremulous voice of the gudewife is advising, possessed an exquisiteness of tone as it fell from the singer's lips, such as could not have been expected from the voice of a male singer. The two further lectures of Mr. Wilson, announced for the 15th and 27th instant, promise from their Ivo grammes to furnish a y et r i c h er treat to the lovers of the science. Enhanced by the accompaniments of voice and harpsichord, this delightful species of lecture cannot fail to draw together crowded audiences. ROYAL ACADEMY OF ARTS. On Friday the 10th instant, being the seventy-third anniversary of the foundation of the Royal Academy of Arts, a General Assembly of the Academicians was held at their apartments in Trafalgar-square, when the fol lowing distribution of premiums took place, viz:— To Mr. Henry Le Jenne— For the best Historical Painting, the Gold Medal, and the Discourses of the Pre sidents, Reynolds and West.

It consisted of a man, his wife, one daughter, 16 years of age, an adopted child, four years old; a dog, four cats, a magpie, and a female servant to wait upon the family.-- Chelmsford Chronicle Out attention has been called to a paragraph which appeared in a recent number of the Hull Packet, whence it was transferred to many of the London and provincial papers, stating that Mr. Kennedy, editor of to this jcurnal, h a d gone out in the employ of Government Texas.

The Lord Chancellor did not take his seat in Court this morning till after eleven o'clock, not having arrived from Windsor till that hour. COWIE v. LOWNDES. . This case, in which the arguments were part-heard on a former day, was ordered to stand over, in order that the appellants might give. a new notice of motion. - ALLEN v. MACPHERSON AND OTHERST This case came before the Court upon appeal from the Judgment of the Master of the Rolls. The bill was filed by the plaintiff, Robert Allen, against the defendant and other persons, who claimed certain legacies under the will of a gentleman, named John Allen. The three gentlemen who had presented the appeal were the exe cutors of John Allen, and they had filed a demurrer to the plaintiff's bill, on the ground of want of equity and want of parties. The Master of the Rolls, on the case coming before him overruled the demurrer, and from that decision the present appeal was brought. ROLLS COURT, Dec. 11. STRICKLAND V. STRICKLAND. This was a motion to set aside an order made by the master for enlargement of the time for publication of the evidence in this cause until an answer should be put in to an amended cross bill that had been filed by the de fendant. The original bill was filed in 1839 and the answer in March, 1840, in which month the cross-bill was filed also. In January, 1841, the plaintiff obtained a rule to pass publication, and in the mean time the cross bill had been amended. A supplemental bill was filed in the same cause, and an answer to it put in in May, 1841. After the cause had been set down for hearing application was made to the Court to enlarge the time for publica tion, but the Court considering that it had 'no jurisdic tion refused to do so, and application was then made to the Master, who made an order for enlarging the time for publication upon the usual terms of the plaintiff's having leave to set down the cause for Waring. The cause was set down for hearing, and subpcenas issued to attend judgment. In this state of things, another bill of the nature of a gross-bill, was filed, and application was made to the Master to enlarge the publication from the commencement of Michaelmas Term to the end of it, which the Master did. The publication being thus enlarged application was made for further enlargement, the plaintiff in the cross bill having in the mean time amended his bill, and the Master made an order enlarg ing the publication untirthe amended bill should be put in, which would have had the effect of postponing the hearing of the original cause. It was, therefore, moved to set aside the order. The MASTER of the ROLLS said, that without saying the Master had not jurisdiction to make the order, he conceived that he ought not, under the circumstances of the case, to have exercised it in the manner he had done. He conceived, therefore, the order made co u ld not be sustained, and mus t b e discharged. VICE CHAIWELLOI?S' COURT, Dec. 11. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR Of ENGLAND.) FLETCHER V. NORTHCOTE. His HONOUR was occupied during the whole of the morning with hearing the exceptions to the Master's report in this part-heard cause. (Before Vice. Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.) BOYES V. LIDDEL. This was an application to the Court for a reference to the Master, to inquire whether or not a good title could be shown to the premises in question in the suit, and that such inquiry should be without prejudice to any ques tion in the cause. The question between the parties was, whether time was or was not of the essence of the con tract. His HONOUR said the conditions were of a strict nature in point of time and otherwise as against the purchaser. He had entered into the contract, and had no right now to complain of it ; although the nature of the con ditions, as affecting him and as favourable to the vendor, might possibly furnish a reason for apply ing the rule as to time strictly as against the vendor, and in favour of the purchaser, he had only to consider whether it was a defect. He could not make the order without prejudice to any question in the cause, because a portion of the inquiry might be utterly thrown away. If he were in error the parties would have an opportunity of correcting it, by taking the case before the Lord Chancellor. The motion was re fused without costs, the costs of the defendant to be costs in the cause. COOMBE V. litE LORD MAYOR OF LONDON. Mr: SPENCE applied to the Court to have the cause postponed from Wednesday next till Hilary Term. At the suggestion of his HONOUR the cause was ordered to stand over generally. TAYLOR V. RUNDELL. In this cause, which Caine before the Court on excep tions to the Master's Report, his HONOUR allowed the exceptions. (Before Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.) WALKER V. JEFFREYS. The arguments in this case having been concluded, it was ordered to stand on the paper for judgment. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Dec. 11. (Sittings in London before the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE and a Common Jury.) lIAZELL V. BARDELL. The plaintiff is a livery stable-keeper and horse-dealer; the defendant an omnibus proprietor. This action was brought to recover the suns of 91. 10s., the price of a horse sold to the defendant, who had refused payment, on the ground that the guarantee was false. It appeared that the horse was not at the sale acknowledged lame, but in other respects warranted sound and well- tempered. The evidence, as usual, in ail cases where a horse is brought into a Court of law, was full of innumerable con tradictions, and gave rise to not a little merriment. Accord ing to the plaintiff's witnesses, the guarantee was fully justified. One of them declared that the " hanimal was as quiet as a lamb, and had no vice whatever ;" another that he was well worth the money, and quite good enough for "a bus." On the other hand, the defendant's wit nesses were unanimous in setting him down as a vicious beast, not worth a pounci ; and "a jibber, that wouldn't move a peg, unless he liked." The Jury found for the plaintiff. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Dec. 11. (Before Lord ABINGER and a London Special Jury.) CATHERWOOD V. CARLIN. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, in this case the plain tiff sought to recover damages as compensation for one of the most grievous wrongs which one man could fasten upon another. The plaintiff by the present state of the law was compelled to ask of the Jury money damages for a wrong which no money could repair—viz., for the loss of the society of a beloved and heretofore affectionate wife. After detailing the circumstances, the Learned Gentleman called witnesses who proved the mar riage of the plaintiff to his wife, a cere mony which took place abroad in Syria. The brother of the plaintiff said the wife had "an Eastern education, a lively di s p os i t i on, a fond nature, and Spanish blood." After residing in England for a short time, the plaintiff and his wife went to the United States, but in 1839; for what reason did not appear, he sent his wife home to his family, himself staying in New York. The wife went to the home of the plaintiff's mother, but her brother-in-law took lodgings for her first in Regent's -park, and then in Charlotte-street, they residing in Charles-square, Iloxton. The defendant was a second cousin of the plain tiff, and used to visit her at her lodgings. No crimi nality was shown, except that the defendant and the wife of the plaintiff sometimes walked out together for hOurs, and upon one occasion, when he had made a visit to her, the servant saw a pair of boots at the bottom of the stairs after her mistress had gone to bed. In August 1840; the plaintiff came home, and then the wife ab sconded, and nothing was beard of her until the August in the present year, when she and the defendant were found to be living together. Mr. THESIGER addressed the Jury for the de fendant, and insisted that there was no evidence against the defendant, - for the Jury must throw out of consideration everything which had taken place since December, 1840, when the action was brought. He also blamed the conduct of the defendant in neglecting his wife, and said his conduct appeared to show a desire for his own dishonour. His Lordship having summed up, the Jury, after a few minutes' deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff. —Damages 2001. SHERIFFS' COURT, Dec. 11. 11ERDERT AND TUE LONDON AND BLACRWALL RAILWAY COMPANY. This was a precept directed to the Sheriff to inquire what amount of compensation the claimant was entitled to receive from the above Railway Company, by reason of the damage alleged to have been sustained by him by the construction of the railway. Mr. F. Kelly, Q. C., and Mr. Bute appeared for the claimant, and the Solicitor-General and Mr. Austin for the Company. Mr. lisx, - Ly stated that the claimant, Mr. John Her bert, was lessee of certain premises in Anthony-street, St. George's in the East, and had been reduced by a moral necessity to bring his case before a jury. The Act of Parliament under which the railway was con structed was obtained by a company of individuals on the 28th of July, 1836. This r a il wa y diff ere d f rom every other that had been made in the United Kingdom, for, as they were no doubt already aware, the London and Liverpool and the. Great Western Railways passed far below the level of the surrounding houses, but the Black well Railway, on the contrary, intersected a densely po pulated neighbourhood. It had, therefore, been thought by the Legislature that persons occupying houses within 50 feet of the railway might be incommoded, and their property deteriorated in value, and upon this ground it had wisely considered it necessary that such parties should have an equitable claim upon the Company for compensation. The 51st section of the Company's Act, under which the Jury were empanelled, provided that, although a person's property was not entirely destroyed, yet if it was damaged and lessened in value, the Company should be bound to purchase it if required to do so., The first question for their consideration, therefore was, were the premises deteriorated in value ? And the next would be, if they were, what was the value of those premises ? It was not the duty of the Jury to say I, hat exact amount of damage was done to the premises, but they must assess the whole value of the premises if any portion of them were at all deteriorated or damaged. Mr. Herbert had lived to an advanced age, above 80 years old, and in consequence of the constant passing and repas sing of the trains, an d the noise produced by the rope al most incessantly p ass i ng over the iron sheaves along the line, and the vibration occasioned thereby, shaking the fire places, glasses, and other arlicles•from the top to tha bot tom of the adjoining 11 °11es, the -claimant would be . com pelled to leave his premises. After some further state ments the Learned C ounsel said, Mr. Herbert - had ,also kid out in improv ements 1401., which he was entitled to receive. Then th ere was his business. He was netting a profit of about 1201. per annum down to the completion of the railway. Ile clairaM for 'goodwill, therefore, two years' value, amounting to 2401., and 371. for fixtures, making in all between 7001 and 8001. Witnesses were called to prove these statements, when the SOLICITOR-GENERAL addressed the Jury in mitigation of damages. He observed that the Com pany resisted this claim because they believed it was not a bona fide one made by Mr. Herbert, but that it was got up by some parties who speculated upon certain clauses of the Railway Company's Act. Whatever the result of this case was the Company would have to bear all the expenses. The Company were not desirous of purchasing the claimant's premises, and the first question for the con sideration of the Jury was whether this was a case in which the Company were compelled to take the pre mises. Alth oug h this claim was small, yet their verdict was of very considerable importance to the Company, be cause if the Solicitor was successful in this, his first spe culation, there would be no end to the exorbitant de mands and number of actions that would be brought against the Company. The Learned Gentlemen then contended that the Act of Parliament providing for com pensation to be paid for any deterioration done to the houses within fifty feet of the railway, applied only to those cases in which substantial and permanent damage was done to the buildings. The Jury, after consulting together for a few minutes, returned into Court and said, " We find that the property is not deteriorated in value by the construction of the railway." In Consequence of a great number of cases depending upon the result of the above claim, a very strong interest was excited amongst the Directors and Shareholders of the railway. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Dec. 11. At the rising of the Court Air. Woodroffe made an ap plication for assistance on the part of " Llewelyn Wat kins Williams," who had been connected with the well known beef shop in the Old Bailey, and who was now in a wretched state of destitution in Whitecross-street Prison. It appeared that the insolvent had been twice a bankrupt, and twice an insolvent. His failures were for considerable sums. He had kept booths at races, places of dramatic entertainment, billiard-rooms, baths, and oyster-shops. These various speculations formed a part of his debts on the present occasion, amounting to up wards of 9,0001. Mr. Woodroffe read an affidavit, show ing his great poverty. He had a family of twelve chil dren, nine of whom were depending on him. His mother now, lived in Field-lane, and was in very distressed cir cumstances. • Mr. Woodroffe read a certificate from Mr. Barrett, the humane keeper of Whitecross-street,•rison, showing the extreme destitution of the insolvent. Mr. Woodroffe informed the Court that Mr. Williams's father had amassed a very large fortune, but the insolvent thought the several speculations he had entered into a " short cut" to wealth, and they had produced his failures. Mr. Commissioner LAW said the fund was very limited, he would, however, see what could be afforded fur the man. Mr. Woodroffe stated the taxed bill at 331. 19s. 9d. The Court promised to award a sum to the prisoner to file his schedule. (This is a distressing case as regards the mother of the insolvent, who has lost all her property by the reckless speculations of her son. The poor in the neighbourhood will feel the loss. Some fifteen or twenty of them might have been seen, before the son failed, every evening, waiting opposite the place, and were generally supplied with what afforded them a plentiful meal. It is bard that she should be driven at last to look for charity herself.) SU RRE Y SESSIONS. CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED RAPE.—William Lillywhite, a stupid-looking countryman, was placed at the bar, charged with assaulting Charlotte, the wife of Richard Barnett, with intent to commit a rape. There was a se cond count, charging him with a common assault. The witnesses were all ordered out of Court. Mr. CORNER, having stated the case, to the Jury. called the following witnesses Charlotte Barnett, the prosecutrix ' a very unattrac tive-looking w oman , apparent l y upwards of forty years of age, deposed —I live at East Grimstead. On the 30th of October last I took my place in the Worthing lug gage van from London at half-past six. It started from near the Elephant and Castle. Prisoner is the guard. Twenty minutes after we left London prisoner came into the van and asked a. little girl who was in the van to come out and see the lights. The child had been placed in the prisoner's charge. I advised the child net to go out. Prisoner asked me if I was afraid ? I said "No ; but that I liked company better." The prisoner then made improper advances towards me.-..( Witness here described the nature of the assault.) I resisted him. When we came to Ashstead I got out, and com plained to the driver of prisoner's conduct. I then got into the van again. This was about twelve at night. The van then started. Soon after the defendant.got in side the van aga i n . H e t h en i nsulted me again. (Wit ness here described the nature, of the assault, which could leave no doubt of the intentions of the prisoner.) I resisted him. He did not say anything. I called out for assistance, and struggled with hi m . P r i soner ' s d ress was disordered. I was sitting on the seat of the van when this happened. Sliortly after we arrived at a toll gate. I told the gate-keeper I must get out because of the prisoner. The toll-gate man said, " Oh, d-- you, sit still, he won't hurt you." I afterwards wanted to go out, and the prisoner put his leg across the door and said I should not get out. He again behaved indecently to me. When the van came to Capel, I jumped out, and ran away, and walked home to Grimstead, a distance of six teen miles. The van goes through Grinstead, prisoner was in a public-house when I jumped out. I went on November 8, to Sir Charles Burrell to complain of the prisoner. I never gave authority to any person to com promise this case, or to receive any money from prisoner. I have never received any. The little girl was in the van while all this was going on, and desired him to let me alone, and he told me it was no business of hers. There was no light in the van. Cross-examined by Mr. KNAPP, for the prisoner— The van passes within three miles of our house. The van did not overtake me. I stayed a little time at Hor sham. He commenced assaulting me a few minutes after he got in. There is a vacancy in the door to let in light. We stopped a moment or two at Tooting. I do not know where at. A person came ,up, and said, " Look out, it is a fair night." I did not complain of the con duct of the prisoner to that person. I was far from home, and did not know what to do. I was afraid, and wanted to get home. They stopped afterwards for it might be twenty minutes. I did not com plain. At Ashtead I asked to get up on the top of the van. I got into the van again, because I thought it might rain. When I complained to the driver, he said prisoner was big enough and old enough to know better. I did not ask him to prevent prisoner getting into the van. There were other persons there, but I did not complain to them, because I wanted to get home. I thought he would not insult me again after I had complained to the driver. Atter I left Capel, I saw the prisoner at the Burrell Arms with the van. That is six miles beyond Horsham. Prisoner asked me if I had walked. I said I had, for I didn't like his usage. I then went into thelandlord, and complained of his usage, and asked if h e k new t h e man. The landlorda vised me to send a letter to his master. I did not do so. When I got home I told my husband, and he said " We must have him took up." I first applied to the Magis trate on the Bth of November. My husband's brother came on the 7th of November, and said the prisoner had given him ten shillings, but I never authorised him to take it ; and never intended to make it up. My hus band and his brother went to see the prisoner, but I never authorised them to make it up. My husband would not take the ten shillings, nor me neither. I never intended to make it up. By the COURT.—I called out when he first molested me. I think lie was sober. I did not know the prisoner. Elizabeth. Searle, a girl apparently about twelve years old—l live at Clapham, near Worthing. On 30th Oct. I was returning from London by Robinson's van. Pri soner is•the guard. Prosecutrix and myself were in the van when it started. (The witness then proceeded to state what had occurred on the journey, and corrobo rated the evidence of the prosecutrix in every material particular.) Prosecutrix kept hallooing, but the driver said he did not hear her. I said to prisoner, "Leave off;" and he asked what business it was of mine ? He attacked prosecutrix several times. She always resisted him and hallooed. The van stopped four hours at Capel after prosecutrix left. It was raining hard at the time. I remained in the van at Capel the whole time. Cross-examined by Mr. KNAPP—I first saw it rain at Ashtead. Prisoner got out to skid the wheel twice be tween Ashtead and Capel. Prisoner said to prosecutrix, " Halloo and be d—," that was when lie shut the door of the van. By the COURT—The door of the van is behind, there is no window—the driver sat upon a box in front. The prisoner never quite shut the door, because if it were shut quite he could not open it ; he stuffed it up with straw, but left an opening to put his arm out to open it. Henry Jarvis was driver of the Worthing van, of which prisoner was guard. Witness drives to Ashstead from London, and remembers prosecutrix travelling down by the van. It is a close van, with no opening but the door, which is behind. Before the van went away from Ash stead, proseoutrix made a complaint to me, and I said to prisoner, "Bill 1 what have you been at with the wo man ?" Prisoner made no reply, but went after the van, and witness went into the stable. Cross-examined—The lamps were lit. It mizzled with rain. We stopped at Tooting and Merton before we came to Ashtead. A person inside cannot shut the door close. The van makes a great noise when going on. By the COURT—I cannot tell when the guard is inside or when he is out; he can get in from his seat without stopping. James Brooker, the constable of West Grimstead, re ceived a warrant for apprehending the prisoner on the Bth November. After his apprehension witness cautioned him what he said. Prisoner said he thought it was settled, for he had given the prosecrutrix's brother-in-law 10s. and intended to give another 10s. the next Monday night. Witness received ten shillings from Benjamin Barnett, and by direction of Sir C. Burrell offered it to the poisoner, who refused to take it. Charlotte 'Barnett recalled. The CnniasiAsi--Why did you delay nine clays be fore going before a Maeistrate ? Witness—Because we did not know what to do about going on with it. We thought it would be a deal of trouble. Mr. KNAPP then addressed the Jury for the prisoner, and contended that at all events they could only convict he prisoner of a common' assault. The. CHAIRMAN having summed up ; the Jury found the prisoner guilty of the whole charge. The prisoner was again indicted for an assault on Elizabeth Searle, the little girl. It was intimated to the Court that the assault had been committed on the little girl after the van had left Capel, and that those conduct ing the prosecution felt it was a duty they owed to the public to proceed with it. The prisoner, under the advice of his Counsel, with drew his plea of not guilty, and pleaded guilty. IJe was sentenced to fifteen months' imprisoment, with hird labour. QUEEN's 8i21C11.-IMert Jones, a borrister, was indicted for committing an aggravated as sault. on James Johnson, in the Queen's Bench Prison. The prosecutor deposed that he is clerk to Mr. Gill ham, the attorney, and thaton the 9th November he went to the Queen's Bench Prison to serve a writ on the defen dant, who was an inmate of the gaol at the time. On handing the defendant the writ, he asked who it was from ; and on being told, he seized prosecutor by the collar, and at the same time exclaimed, " You vagabond, I'll teach you to come here to" serve writs." Prosecu tor remonstrated, and asked him what he meant, upon which the prisoner said, " You know the penalty of coming here to serve writs. You must - go under the pump." The prisoner then endeavoured to force him down the stairs towards the yard, and the noise made by it brought a man out of an adjoining room, who in 9uired what was the matter, when prisoner said it was a fellow that had been serving a writ upon him, and roared out, " Hurrah for the pump." The noise brought up a number of persons who had been playing at rackets, and prosecutor said that he should make the prisoner suffer if he attempted any thing of the kind, upon which he again exclaimed, " You don't go, old fellow, until you have been under the pump." Prosecutor made desperate efforts to disengage himself from the prisoner, who being the stronger man of the two, dragged him down the flight of stairs along the yard, and towards the pump. When he got him up to the pump, he threw him into the stone trough, underneath the spout, and held him in that position, calling out to the byestanders, "A dozen pots of beer for any person Who will pump on this writ server." The moment he announced the offer two or three men seized the handle of the pump, and began to pump upon the prosecutor while the prisoner held him down, until he was drenched from head to foot. Some persons who stood by, who witnessed the conduct de scribed desired the prisoner to let him go, saying that he was well ducked, and that enough was as good as a feast. Prosecutor was then let go, and, amidst the jeers of the assembled crowd, he proceeded to the lobby of the prison, and having represented the treatment that he had experienced at the hands of the defendant to one of the turnkeys, requested that he might be permitted to stand before the fire and dry the front of his dress. In answer to the Chairman, the prosecutor said that no one present interfered for his protection from the pump; but he heard voices exclaim, " That will be a cooler for the writ-server—that will be a refresher for him." The prosecutor added, that owing to the wetting lie got he had a very bad cold—Verdict, Guilty. The eIIAIRMAN said that the Jury had very properly returned a verdict of guilty. People had often heard— at least a few years back—of a custom that prevailed in the Queen's Bench prison, and a most scandalous custom it was, that of the inmates dragging persons who ren dered themselreS obnoxious to them, particularly lawyers and their clerks, to the large Pump which stands in the yard, and pumping on them until they nearly drowned their victims. It might be considered a good joke by the idlers in gaol, but it was necessary to put a final stop to such proceedings, and not allow the custom to grow up again ; and the only way to effect that object was to inflict a severe punishment upon those who were found guilty of such an offence. In the course of the trial it was stated that the defendant was a member of the bar ; be (the Chairman) regretted to see a member of the profession so disgrace himself as to place himself in such a situation, and the . sentence of the Court was, that he be imprisoned in the common gaol of the county for the space of six calendar months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-BO USE. An Irishwoman, named Catharine Bryan, was charged with having stolen several boots out Of a shop. The complainant, who evidently was not desirous to prosecute, stated that the woman walked into the shop, took up several odd boots which were next at hand, and then turned round deliberately and walked out. Upon being followed and detained, she refused to give up the pro perty except to a policeman. A policeman was then called, and she no longer kept possession of the boots, but she wished to be charged with the robbery. Sir C. MARSHALL —Sh e has been here before. Prisoner—Oh, indeed, then, I have so, and I won't easily forget it. My daughter (the only relation and friend I had in the world) has been transported for what brought her and me here—for taking pots—and I am left alone. Sir C. MARSHALL—Were you both convicted for that offence? Prisoner---We were both guilty from starva tion, and she was sent off to Van Diemen's Land for seven years, while I was sentenced to three months im prisonment in the Compter. Just as I got to the end of my sentence I set off to Woolwich, and I found that the vessel had sailed away with all I cared about in the world, so up I comes to London, and you don't think that lam going to be particular now, do you? If you do you're mistaken. Sir C. MARSHALL—Which is your parish ? Pri soner—Whitechapel. I went there full of grief, but the treatment I received was too much to be borne, so I came away, and I took this gentleman's property. I know as well as you do that I had no right to do so, but who or what have Ito care for ? If you don't send me to prison and transport me for this, why you'll be obliged to do so for something else. Mr. Nobler—l suppose you want to go out to your daughter ? Prisoner—Oh, do just as you please with me. I admit that I robbed the shop,, and 1 want any thing but mercy. Sir C. MARSHALL—I am afraid your wish to see your daughter will not be gratified. Prisoner—Well, I can't help that. It is quite clear that you must do something to get rid of me, for as sure as I am alive, I'll be at the work again. Sir C. MARSHALL—Why, you are a very desperate woman. I should like to know how this prisoner con ducted herself in the Compter ? Gooch, the turnkey of the Compter—During the three months of her confine ment she acted extremely well. Prisoner—But that's over now. The Lord forgive mo my sins. Mr. Nobler—You led your poor girl into the offence of pot-stealing, for which she has been transported, and now you are sorry when it is too late. Prisoner—lt was sheer famine that drove us to anything to get victaal.4. Hunger was the cause—and what chance have I remain ing. I shall, if you don't commit me, go away and•com mit a more serious robbery. Sir C. MARSHALL—I certainly shall send you for trial. I place too much credit on your words to let you go at liberty. Prisoner—l shan't deny a word of this in Court; my Lord, you may depend on it. The Lord in heaven forgive me for my sins !—(Here the wretched woman burst into tears, and was taken from the bar.)—The complainant was bound over to prosecute. BOW-STREET.: John Miller, an elderly man, " was charged with the following case of robbery :—A servant in the family of Mrs. Barham, a lady residing at, No. 14, Howard street, Strand, stated that, at an early hour on Thursday morning, the prisoner came to her mistress's house, and told witness that her mistress was liable to a penalty of 5/ for leaving the hole in the foot pavement; through which coals are shot into the cellar beneath, without a proper iron plate covering, and at the same time calling her attention to the fact that the hole in question was un covered. He then said that he was in the service of Cadogan, the surveyor of - pavements for that dis trict, and that if he were employed to put down a new iron plate he would take care that no information should be laid against her mistress for leaving the cellar-hole uncovered. Witness told him she would speak to her Mistress about it as soon as she came down stairs ; and the prisoner hereupon promised to call again. In the meantime he placed a large stone over the hole, so as to prevent any person from falling down it. He came back in about an hour, and then saw her mistress, and told her of the penalty she had incurred, upon which she begged him to put d9wn a fresh plate without delay. The prisoner promised to do so, and said his charge would be 35., which it was agreed should be paid him. He soon brought an iron plate, which fit ted exactly the hole cut in the stone ; and, while he was in the act of placing it, Weston, a policeman, came up, and took him into custody. On examining the iron plate which the prisoner was about to put down, she at once identified it as the one belonging to her mistress, and , which she had no doubt the prisoner had stolen a shor time before. Mr. Cadogan, the surveyor of pavements, stated that the prisoner was not in his service, and that he had not seen him for the last 14 years. A great number of witnesses were in attendance, who proved that the plates found at his lodgings had been stolen in the night, and that the prisoner had called at their houses at an early hour on the following morning, and having told them the story he had told at Mrs. Bar hath's, they had employed him to put down fresh plates, and paid him 3s. each for so doing. The prisoner in defence said that he was a dealer in iron plates, and had honestly come by all the plates spo ken to by the different witnesses. Mr. TWYFORD committed him for trial at the Central Criminal Court on three of the charges preferred against him. MARLBORO UG H-STREET. Matthew Wren.and Charles Mott, two boys of cleanly and decent appearance, the former thirteen years of age, and the latter twelve, were placed at the bar before Mr. Hardwick, on a charge of shop-lifting. It appeared that about eleven o'clock on Saturday, they had entered the shop of Mrs. Farren, dealer in fancy articles and cutlery, Burlington-arcade, and while pretending to purchase a pocket-knife each, Wren slipped one into his boot with out paying for it. In answer to a question from the Magistrate, the gaoler said that Mott had only recently been discharged from prison, which was evident from the " county crop" of his hair. Mr. llARDwicx (to the prisoner)—What were you sent to prison for ? Prisoner Mott—Nothing I need be ashamed of. Only for standing on my head. Mr. llnanwicx was quite puzzled until the gaoler ex plained to him that the prisoner had been committed as a vagrant for going about the streets singing songs, and occasionally standing on his head and clapping the soles of his feet together to excite charity. The prisoner Wren said that his friends were " re spectable people." Mr. lIARDWICK committed the prisoners for two months each to Westminster Bridewell to hard labour, for being in Mrs. Farren's shop for an unlawful purpose. QUEEN SQUARE. Mary Connelly, a woman apparently about thirty years of age, was charged with attempting to drown herself. The evidence of two witnesses went to prove that the woman had been arrested at the moment she was about to precipitate herself into the Thames at the Horseferry. In answer to the charge the defendant said that she was the mother of four children, and her husband, who was a mechanic, had been out of work such a length of time that they were all in a state of starvation. She had on Friday evening taken off the only article of wearing • apparel that would fetch any thing (a flannel petticoat), and pawned it fora shilling, with which she had procured some food for her husband and famil y , b e i ng the first they had eaten during that day. She was so overcome with distress that not knowing what she did she at tempted the act with which she was charged; she had MORNING SUN Cpls. 5. cl. s• .'
