MORNING SUN LAW INTELLIGENCE. PALACE COURT, Oct. 15. BEST v. LAZARUS. This was an action to recover the sum of 201. 165. 8d upon a bill olexeluinge. • Mr. Coy appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Lock for the defence. The Bill in question - had been drawn in the usual form, and negociated to the plaintiff. On its becoming dila it was dishonoured, and the plaintiff sent a verbal message to the defendant a few days afterwards, ac guainting him of the fate of the bill. The defendant then said to the. messenger that he would make it all right in a fey days with the plaintiff. Air. LoCK, on the part of the defendant, contended that sufficient notice of the dishonour had nut been given, inasmuch as it should have been given in writing. The Learned Judge having summed up, The Jury retired, and shortly afterwards returned with a verdict for the plaintiff: This was the only defended action. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Oct. 15. RE JOHN STANCLIFFE JAMES. The insolvent, whose case appeared in The Sun of Tuesday. having been called up for judgment, it was stated that he had complied with the conditions required by the Court, when the Learned Commissioner ordered him to be discharged forthwith. The Court then proceeded to h.Jar the applications for bail, of which there were twenty-eight town cases and eight country, most of which were unopposed and without intere,t. IN THE MATTER OF NATHANIEL DAVIS. One of the parties offering himself as bail in this case, named James Corcoran, was opposed by a creditor named Liarvey, On the ground of his having been a bank rupt some time back. The Court concurred in the objection. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOW:;E. A young countryman, named George Howe, was brought before the Lord Mayor, having given himself up to a policeman on the preceding day on a very serious self accusation. The policeman stated that the prisoner walked up to him at three o'clock on Thursday, and said " I have done something wrong, policeman, and I wish you to take me into custody." Witness asked him what he meant, and he replied—" You know what Blakeslee did, I have done something like that. I have murdered my mother." Witness did not believe there was any.founda tion for the statement, and wanted theprisoner to go home, but he insisted upon bring taken to the station-house. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, prisoner, where is your mother whom you say you have murdered ? Prisoner— I was drunk, my Lord. I never murdered any one. The policeman said it was evident the prisoner. had been drinking. The LORD MAYOR (to the prisoner)—Where is your mother ? Prisoner—At Walthamstow. I live with her ; and there she's to be found. The LORD I.lfeeron—When did you see her ? Pri soner—On Saturday last. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, you have given yourself a very bad character, and y-ou must bring forward somebody to remove the impression caused by your own descrip tion before I part with you. Prisoner—l assure you, my Lord, it was nothing but drunkenness. The LORD MAYOR —How am I to know that drunken ness is the only offence you have committed ? No, no. You must bring forward some more credible person. If you suffer any inconvenience and are an innocent man, you have to blame yourself fur what you undergo. The policemani - Ie told me his mind was very un • easy on the !subject, and it was his anxious wish to be taken to the station-house. The prisoner—l do assure you, my Lord, that my mother is quite well, and I never thought of such a thing. It was nothing but the effect of drinking. The LORD MAYOR— When you get somebody to attend and prove to us that you have accused yourself wrongfully, you shall be set at liberty ; but 1 cannot think of letting you go merely because you now think proper to deny your first statement. The prisoner, who appeared to be greatly annoyed at this unexpected result of his drunken frolic, and who endeavoured to prevail upon Lordship to consider him as innocent of his mother's blood, in a very earnest evpeal, was then removed from the bar. Subsequently a gentleman, who resides in the neigh bourhood of the Mansion 'house, and was acquainted with the prisoner and his family, waited upon the Lord Mayor, and stated that the foolish fellow became a great deal more foolish by putting. " the enemy into his mouth," and that he was a young man of very good cha racter. The LORD MAYOR thought another night under a good strong lock would be of service to the prisoner's memory, and prevent him from giving unnecessary trouble to the police. - BOW-STREET. Shortly after Mr. Jardine took his seat on the bench ,yesterday morning, Joseph Payboddy, a butcher, resid ang in Goodge-street, Tottenham-court-road, who was charged at this Court on Monday last, with John Biggs, a clerk, with uttering certain forged checks at the bank ing-house of Messrs. Snow, Paul, and Co., with intent to defraud Mr. Williams, a solicitor, occupying chambers in Paper-buildings, Temple, but who was admitted to bail for a week, was again laced at the bar, on a charge of uttering two other forged checks for the sum of one hundred pounds each. Mr. Long conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Robin son appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Robinson said he had to complain of the great in jastice which had been done to the prisoner, and the great contempt that had been shown to the Court, by taking the prisoner into custody a second time on the same charge. He had been brought before Mr. Hall, . . steps should be taken to obtain a fuller investigation into the affair. _ James Phillips, the driver of the cabriolet No. 510, was charged with causing the death of Miss Georgiana Lyndon Cores, aged six years, by driving his cabriolet over her. It appeared that between four and five o'clock yesterday afternoon. the deceased, in running across trew.r-street, Golden-square, was knocked down by the cabriolet driven by the prisoner, and one of the wheels passed over her body. She was carried to the nearest surgeon s, and on being examined, she was supposed not to have sustained any serious injury, but on being conveyed to her parents' residence, No. 90, in the Quadrant, alarming symptoms manifested themselves, and in a short time she expired. The prisoner was remanded until the verdict of the Coroner's Jury is known. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. WALESBY and a Bench of Magistrates.) Muen ADO ABOUT NOTHING.—Pha . be Chapman alias Fhccbe Gibbs, a respectable-looking woman, was yesterday indicted for assaulting It!chard Case on the 29th of July last. The parties in this case resided in Duke-street On the morning in question, the prosecutor's daughter was beating her teat in the street. The defendant came out ad told her :he should not beat her mat there. A quarrel ensued, and the prosecutor came out and beat the mat, when the defendant went into her house and brought out her mat, which she beat against the pro secutor, who stood stock-still. She knocked off his hat, and kicked it into the kennel. He said nothing abusive to the defendant, he merely said, " Mrs. Chapman, 14 e must settle this elsewhere." On his cross-examination he said that the defendant had been living for soma years past with a Mr. Gibbs, - a respectable man ; that he had no reason to believe they were not mar ried, but that he had called her Chapman be cause some years ago she had given that name at a police-office where she had appeared to prose cute a person. He bad not struck her, nor had he told any boys to hurra. The witnesses for the defence swore that the prose cutor assaulted the defendant in the first instance, that ho knocked off his own hat, and that be had told the boys to hurra, and that they did so. Mr. WALEbBY, in summing up, said he thought the case ought not to have been brought here. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and the Court sentenced her to pay a fine of ls., and to enter into her own recognizances for 20/. to keep the peace towards Mr. Case for six months. Sarah Sparrow was indicted for keeping a disorderly house in Exeter-street.. Mr. PRENDERGAST, who appeared for the prosecu tion, said it was instituted, not by any public authori ties, but by a person who bad been robbed on the premises. _ _ _ Henry Alfred Mesnil stated that he was a hair dresser; residing in Marshall•strcet, Borough-road. In the month of June last, he met a female in the Strand, and accompanied her to this house, and after he left her he missed 15/. from his fob pocket. He went to the defendant the next day, with whom he had been previously acquainted for some years, and she told him he was not the first man who had been rubbed in the house, and desired him to leave the house. On his cross-examination, he admitted that he had no shop, that he had only occupied his present lodgings three weeks, that he had been living in various places with va rious women during the last twelve months ; that he had lived with Mr. Mitchell as valet and butler, and that while living there he had caused the plate of his master to be pawned ; that he bad received the money of which he had been robbed to go down to Scarborough on electioneering business ; and that he was to pay it to Mr. Pennington, the clerk to Mr. Atkinson, the attorney for this prosecution ; that he had rescued it from Mr. Ha3es at the Grecian ; that he did not know where Mr. Hayes lived; that Mr. Hayes was a clerk in a great house of business, hut who were the partners in the house, or where it was situated, he could not tell. He had been intro duced to Mr. Hayes by Mr. Pennington. Could not name any person who had seen either of the three .5/. notes of which he bad been robbed. Had been once tried on a charge of felony, but had been acquitted. Had heard of a per son named Cochrane. Cochrane had been charged by the defendant with theft. Cochrane was at Baw street. Mr. Pennington was there. Does not know how soon after he had been introduced to Mr. Atkin son by Pennington. Does not know how soon alter he indicted the house. Was not married. Had had children, but did not know where they were. Had never been maintained by any of the women with whom he bad lived. Had maintained himself by his business, and money he had from his friends. Could not say when he bad last earned a crown. Had dressed Mr. Pennington's hair within the last six months ; fre quented the saloon and other public places. This witness frequently eontradicted himself. On his re-examination he said that his father had been cook in the service of Prince Etterhazy, and that Mr. Mitchell would give him a character, and had since em ployed him to dispose of a carriage for him. Several uther witnesses were called, who resided in the neighbourhood, one of whom, Mr. Belfeld, corn plan: ed of having heard noises in the house, and had seen women at the windows, but had not seen any thing indecent in t heir conduct. -He admitted that he had built his premises opposite to the house, and had, in fact, come to the nuisance. The policeman on the beat said he had not seen or heard any noise or dis order in the house, which was in general well conducted ; and the beadle of the parish, who was called to prove occupancy of the defendant, said that the house was a quiet, orderly, well•conductcd house. M. CLAUKSON, in addressing the Jury for the defence, put it to them if they could- believe the evidence of Mesni!, and commented .in the severest terms on the conduct of Pennington, the at torney's clerk, contending that , - the prosecution was got up merely to extort money, and that there ivas no evidence to prove this a disorderly house. There was no one who ever saw Mesuil with the money in his possession, and although Mr. Pennington was in Court he had not thought proper to place himself in the witness box. charged on suspicion with being concerned, with another, at present in custody-. in uttering forged cheeks, and, after a partial investigation, he was admitted to bail, the Magistrate considering there was not any evidence to warrant his detention. He (Mr.' Robinson) apprehended that nu officer had any right.to interfere with his client after the decision of the Magistrate who had originally heard the case, until the. time fur which he had been bailed had expired, Mr. Long said it, was far from being the same charge which had been brought against the prisoner on Mon day, although there were nine checks upon which his name appeared, and as he &mid produce evidence re specting two forged checks which had not been men tioned on the last occasion, he hoped there would be no objection to detain the prisoner. After a lengtheited investigation, Mr. JAnDixfr; comkideres,k,there was sufficient evidence already offered to justify bins in ordering the prisoner to be remanded, Mr. Robinson submitted that the name of his client being on the back of the notes could not constitute a charge of forgery' against him, and he contended that the evidence was net stronger than it was at the first ex amination, and therefore he was entitrad to have his bail enlarged. Mr. Long said he only mentioned the forgeries at the last examination, but now he had given evidence that traced the notes to the person. Mr. JARDINE considered, under all the circumstances of the case, the prisoner should be, remanded until Teesday next. M A R 1 B OR 0 UV' II- STREET About a fortnight or three we e k s ago , a we ll-d resse d woman, wh o gave her name as Georgians Hunt, charged a gentleman, n ame d L averty, with having committed an indecent assault on her in Regent- street, about ten o'clock on the previous evening, and, in confirmation of her statement, a person came forward who said that the com plainant was his wife, that he had left her but a few mo ruentsbefore the alle ge d assault, and that upon rejoining s wife he was informed of the defendant's proceedings, upon which he gave him into custody. The husband further added t h at h e was an officer, and lived on his private income of 200/. a year. Mr. Hardwick, on the positive testimony brought forward, fined the defen dant A ° a Thursday Mr. 'Laverty presented I i eel fbefore Mr. Hardwick, to state that he had aceidcnt l m 1 0 1): 11 obtained nn ‘,i o hurlthe means otiproving that the store' of the a l ' so unexpectedly accused hiu e was, . in pare untrue ' and this, perhaps, would induce the Magistrate to believe him when. he solemnly asserted that there was n e o le t v a e single particle of truth in the eceesation that had .s been so wantonly trumped up against him. Mr. HAnrowlex hero remarked that something had afterwards come to his knowledge that very much shook the impression which the case had first made on him. Mr. Laverty then referred to the circumstance of' a young female ha rin g been s h a mefully annoyer} by t h e parties who had accused him, anti he wished to know if steps could not be taken to prevent the recurrence of this conduct ? Mr. HARDWICA."' said a complaint of this proceeding had been made to him. He was ready to gr an t a warrant if proof were produced th at the offence had been repeated. Mr. Laverty. referring to his own case, said he did obtained the m one y not regard the 51. fi ne, though he had with some difficulty. but he certainly was anxious to rescue himself from an unfounded charge—a charge which, if not rebutted, would prove his ruin, and which had already caused him many sleep less nights. He had a young friend in court, who would, if permitted, make a statement relative to Mrs. Hunt, who, it would be re collected, represented herself as a married woman of un blemished character. A young gentleman stepped forward and said, while walking last evening with his friend, Mr. Laverty, he had occasion to stand up for shelter beneath the portico of tlanover-square church.

During the defence Mr. Atkinson, the attorney fur the prosecutor, frequently attempted to interrupt Mr. Clarkson until at length the Chairman addressed Mr. Atkinson as follows :—" Sir, if you have not the decency to sit down and keep yourself quiet, I shall order you out of Court, in custody if necessary." The CHAIRMAN, in addressing the Jury, said that in the whole course of his experience be had never seen a ease brought forward under circumstances more re volLing and disgusting than the present. It was the grossest mockery to suppose that it had been brought forward from aay desire to benefit the neighbourhood. He did not think the Counsel for the defence had gone tco far in stating that all the parties concerned in getting up this prosecution were actuated by any but pure motives. The Learned Chairman then put it to the Jury if they could believe the monstrous story told by the - tritness Mesnil, especially after what had come out ort hiiEfoss-examination. He thought the evi dence of the other witnesses was scarcely sufficient to prose the house a disorderly house. The Jury without hesitation returned a verdict of Not Guilty. 'rue CHAralt,es—That is by far the safer verdict in such a case as the present. Mr. Prendergast was , . Counsel, and Mr. Atkinson, of Carey-street, Lincoln's Inn, was attorney for the prosecution . ; and Mr. Clarkson was Counsel, and Mr. Flower attorney for the defence. ADJOURNED INQUEST. Yesterday the inquiry which was adjourned from Wednesday last, was again resumed before Mr. Baker, in reference to the circumstances connected with the death of James Carrol, the policeman of the II division, who died from the injuries received on the morning of the 22d ult., in an affray which took place in the neigh bourhood of Church -street, Bethnal-green. Thomas Smedley and James Welsh, the prisoners charged with having been concerned in causing the death of the de ceased, were present, in the custody of two turnkeys of the• NeW Prison. After some additional evidence had been given, the Coroner summed up the different state ments' made by the witnesses in this protracted inquiry, when the Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Thomas Smedley and other persons, who are to the Jurors unknown." The Jury added that they re ' commended it to be made known to the Commissioners of Police, that a greater number of police should be placed on duty in the neighbourhood where the assault occurred. The Coroner then made out his warrant for the com mittal of the pth.oner to Newgate, and the several wit nesses were bound over to pr osecute. The inquiry lasted from ten o'clock in the forenoon to five o'clock in tha afternoon, this being the si x th meetingof the Jury, who were highly respectable, and who at each adjournment readily complied with the suggestion of the Coroner. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER-16, 1841. MR. HULLAWS SINGING-CLASSES IN EXETER-HALL. Since the opening of the normal school of vocal•music, established under the authority of the 14klacation Com mittee of the Priiy Council, and conducted by Mr. 'Jutish, the success of this institution has greatly sur passed the highest expectations entertained. School masters and schoolmistresses have come from all parts of the kingdom to enrol themselves as pupils; and the four classes of which it consists are now attended by nearly four hundred persons. The members of these classes, impressed with a strong feeling of the benefits they have derived from Mr. Ifullah's instructions, re solved to present him with a piece of plate, as a testi monial of their respect and gratitude. For this purpose a meeting took place in Exeter-hall on Thursday evening at seven o'clock. The lesser hall was completely crowded by the pupils, and a number of friends of the institution who were invited to be present. Lord Wharncliffe, as President of the Council, was in the chair. The business was opened by Dr. Kay, who explained the purpose of the meeting—to make a public demon stration of gratitude to Mr. Hullah, and at the same time give some public evidence of the results of his instruc tions. They then proceeded to sing several exercises and pieces of music, conducted by one of their own number (Mr. Wrighton), who showed, in this manner, how he had been taught to teach others. They began by sing ing, in unison, the ascending and descending scales, and then executed pieces of vocal harmony in two and three parts, some of which were exceedingly beautiful. A little song or hymn, in three parts, called " Christmas," was sung with such expression and sweetness as to be truly charming. These pieces were sung, sometimes by all the voices of one sex, and sometimes by the whole male and fe:nale voices ti gether ; and the accuracy of their time, thei,r truth of intonation, and attention to the delicacies of effect,producijal by swelling or subduing the voice—all performed without the aid of any accompani ment whatever , —were really astonishing. In the extreme simplicity of some of these choral songs, there was some thing actually sublime. The meeting was then addressed by Mr. Cuthbertson, who had been deputed by his fellow-students to present the testimonial, which was a magnificent silver salver, apparently of great value. After expressing, with great feelinT, the sentiments which led to this mark of grati tude, he placed the salver in the hands of Lord Wham clitfe. Ilis Lordship delivered it to Mr. Hullah, who re turned thanks in a speech received with the warmest applause. Thanks were then voted to Lord Wharneliffe and the distinguished visitors present. Mr. Hullah him self then put his musical troops through several exercises of a higher order than those which had gone before, comprising some fine compositions of Durante, Purcell, and other great masters, which were accurately and ef fectively performed. Among the company we observed Lord and Lady Wharnclitfe, Lady Stuart de Rothesay, Lady Canning, the Hon. and Rev. Eden, Mrs. and Miss Eden, the lion. Mr. Lefevre, Dr. Kay, Harry Chester, Esq., Harrison, Esq., Joseph Kay, Esq., Lady Gordon, Mr. and Mrs. Tutinell, and Mr. Tremenhore. We also ob served Mr. Moscheles. LAMENTABLE OCCURRENCE AT SH EERNESS. For the last three or four days a molt painful degree of excitement has prevailed in Sheerness, Queenaborough, and Chatham, in consequence of the report that. an old seaman, 56 years of age, belonging to her Majesty's ship Wellington, lying in ordinary in the Medway, near the Royal Dockyard, had been killed by a warrant officer of the same vessel. It appears, that on Thursday last, being pay-day, se veral boats came ashore from the different ships in the river. Amongst theth ivas the crew of the Wellington, under the command of Mr. Ward, the warrant-officer. Among them were two other seamen, named Kingdom and Sheppard, and a boy, besides Maxwell, the deceased. After the receipt of their pay they remained drinking on shore till after dark, with the exception of Maxwell and the boy. On leaving the inn at a late hour, they were scarcely able to walk to the ship's boat, then lying off the pier. They managed to crawl into it, and it was put off, Ward taking charge of " the tiller; Maxwell, Kingdom, Sheppard, and the boy manned the oars. The boat, instead of being steered down the river towards tho spot where the Wellington was moored, was steered across, and ran ashore. Maxwell, finding this was the case, and being sober, offered to take charge of the tiller, saying, " a taster, you had better let me steer for you." Ward, with an oath, replied, " If you think you can steer better than me, you had better come and do it." Maxwell got up for the purpose of going to the tiller, when the boat ran aground. Ward swore at Maxwell, declaring that it would not have happened if he had not made himself so officious. Maxwell made some reply, when Ward snatched up one of the stretchers of the boat, and struck Maxwell a violent blow with it on the face, which knocked him down. Maxwell got up, and a scuffle ensued, in the midst of which Ward pulled out a large clasp-knife, and, rushing towards him, swore " he would rip his b----y guts up." Maxwell, to avoid the blow, sprang towards the gunwale of the boat, and perceiving Ward following him, jumped overboard, and was seen no more. He was unable to swim. The statements of the crew differ ma terially, but the boy declares that Maxwell was knocked overboard by the blow on the head by the stretcher, whilst others say he was swept away by the sea on jump ing over. The boy, however, was the only one sober, except the deceased. Ward was arrested and placed in custody on board the Ocean, line-of-battle ship, I; , ing off the Dock-yard. Being intoxicated, a guard was placed over him. Sir John Hill, Captain Superintendent of the Royal Dock-yard, happened to be in London at the tiine of the occurrence, and it was expected that on his return on Monday last, he being a Magistrate, would assemble a . Court of Inquiry into the matter. Ever since the occur rence watermen and others have been employed in drag ging the Medway for the body, but up to the time our informant left Sheerness, it had not been re covered. Maxwell bore an excellent character in the service, and was much respected. HORRID MURDER AT DAR FIELD, NEAR BARNSLEY. (From the Doncaster Gazette of Friday.) The following are the particulars connected with one of the most diabolical and coolly-premeditated murders that has ever been committed in this part of the coun try. What renders the event more shocking, is the fact that the unfortunate victim was assassinated by mistake, owing, it is supposed, to his being in age, ap pearance, and dress, very similar to the person marked out by the murderers. The deceased was a young man named Thomas Depledge, about 21, a farming servant, in the employ of Mr. T. Ileptenstall, of Bileingley, near Darfield. The murder was committed on the turnpike road be tween the two places, and very near the cross roads leading from Darfield to Doncaster, Pontefract, and Rotherham. It appears that, on Monday night, two boat haulers, named Joseph and William Lodge, residing at Womb well, were returning from Barnsley Fa;r, and when they had got as far as Measborough Hill, a short distance from Barnsley, they became engaged in a quarrel with two men, named Marsden and Mills. who were walking on the road. Joseph Lodge get off his horse, and at tacked the :two men. giving one a severe bite on the cheek, and almost biting the fingers off the hand . of the other. He received himself some very severe scratches and bruises, which seem to have exasperated him, and roused him to a determination of deadly revenge. Marsden and Mills having picked up the hat which Joseph Lodge had lost in the scuffle, pro ceeded on their road home, and called at the Ring of Bells public-house at Darfield Bridge, where they met with Thomas Depledge and some companions, who were also returning 'from the fair. In the meantime the two Lodges, who are brothers, had gone iback to Barnsley, evidently with the intention of collecting a force for the purpose of assisting in their revengeful purpose. They, called -with their companions, one of whom was a nephew, named John Lodge, at all the beer .houses and public-houses on the road, and at length, their Meads having left them, the three Lodges entered the public-haute at Barfield-bridge, where they found Joseph's hat on the t ible, and saw the two men with whom they had quarrelled. Some suspi cious expressions fell from them there, and they were perceived to be watching for Marsden and Mills leav ing the house. Some evil purpose was so apparent, that £%lilis was strongly advised not to leave the house that night. At length, however, Marsden and Mills, along with Depledge and several others, left the house, and pro ceeded homewards towards nillingley. When they had got to the Milnhouses, a short distance from Dar field, the two former went forward before the others. At the cross roads they had gained ground a good deal ; and near this place Depledge, it is supposed, in consequence of hearing footsteps behind, and wishing to apprise the men of some danger, left his friends and . proceeded forward at a quicker pace. Joseph and William Lodge then came up, spoke to the party behind, and walked sharply past. One was in his shirt sleeves, which were doubled up, and carried a large hedge-stake. When they had gone about a hundred yards further, a very severe blow was heard by those who were in the rear. They hastened forward, and found their companion, Depledge, lying bleeding on the road. On raising him up he immedi atelyeexpired. His mouth and nose were bleeding pro fusely, and it was found that he had received a dread ful blow on the face, which had broken the bones of his nose, and completely flattened it. The lifeless body was immediately conveyed by his companions to Miln houses. Almost directly after the murder, the two Lodge 3, running at full speed, passed Marsden and Mills on the road ; one of them dropped a large hedge stake, which was afterwards found by the constable ; and they then turned down a lane leading to Vi,oenb well, where they were both taken into custody the seine night. John Lodge, the nephew, had left them at air field Bridge. An inquest was held upon the body of the ill-fated man on 'Wednesday, at the Rin. of Bells public-house, before Mr. Thomas Badger, th;Corener. The greatest excitement prevailed in the sequestered little village of Darfield. Th e Jury heard evidence of the facts above stated until fivei n the afternoon, when the inquest was adjoureed until .the followi ng day. On Thursday the inquiry w as resumed , and after some additional eviaence bad been taken, the Coroner summed up, and the Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder," against Joseph and William Lodge, who were fully committed to take their trial at the ensuing assizes.
