NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, Dec. 19. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.) Samuel Hanson, aged 17, was charged with a mis demeanour at common law, for having, on the Bth day of September last, unlawfully administered to Mary Warburton a quantity of Spanish flies, with intent to injure her, the said Mary Warburton. The indictment likewise charged the prisoner with a common assault. Mr. Overend and Mr. Pierce conducted the prose cution ; Mr. Blanchard defended the priAotier. It appeared that the prisoner resided with his mother, who keeps cows, about half a mile from the prosecutrix, who was accustomed to go and vinit the prisoner's mother. The prisoner had promised the prosecutrix and some other girls some rum, and on the Bth of September they asked the prisoner for it, and he went and fetched a bottle, which he said was rum. He gave the bottle to the girls, and they took it home and drank it, the consequence of which was that they became very drunk. It appeared that the prisoner had purchased" some Spanish flies at a chemist's in Huddersfield, saying that he wanted to make a mixture for killing rats. It was urged on behalf of the prisoner that the offence charged was not a misdemeanour at common law, nor was it an assault. For the Crown it was contended, first, that it was an offence at common law to administer anything deleterious to another, whatever be the motive, and cited Dixon's case, 3 Maule and Selwyn, p. 10; " Rex v. Button," 8 C. and P. ; " Regina v. Walken den and others," 1 Cox's Criminal Cases; an , l Russell on Crimes, 674, 752. Secondly, that fraud was equivalent to force, and that as the prosecutrix would not have taken the Spanish flies without fraud, it amounted to an assault. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS, after consulting Mr. Jus• tice Cresswell, said that " Rex v. Button" could not be sustained, and that the charge did not constitute a misdemeanour at common law, or an assault. Verdict, " Not Guilty." Robert Young was charged with the wilful murder of his brother, George Young, on the 17th of July last. Mr. Otta conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Orerend and Mr. Dearsley defended the prisoner. It ppeared that the prisoner and the deceased lived at a farm near Thearn, about five miles from Beverley, in the East Riding; and on the morning of the day in question they went out together with some horses for the purpose of ploughing, the prisoner carrying an axe and some wedges. Shortly afterwards, when they were in a clover field, a joiner, named Macon, who was at work in his shop close by, heard a groaning in the field, and a voice say, " Lord have mercy upon me." On going to the place he found the deceased lying on the ground, with a frightful wound in the head, and the prisoner standing near with the horses. The axe was not far from where the deceased lay, and had blood and hair upon it. He said to the prisoner, " Robert, what have you been doing ?" upon which the prisoner only made a sort of laugh. Assistance was then procured, and the deceased was carried on a door to his own house. The prisoner took no notice of what was going on, but took the horses to the stable, and then took a bill hook and went and slashed the hedge. He went into dinner at one o'clock, and ate a very hearty dinner. The police having come he was taken into custody, and when the person in whose custody he was asked him if he would like to shake hands with his brother, who was not then dead, the prisoner laughed, and said " No." He was then taken to the House of Correc tion at Beverley, and then he seemed to be under the impression that he was brought there for not plough ing straight. Several relatives of the prisoner proved that he was out of his mind seven years ago, after an election at Beverley, where he was a voter, and Mr. Anderson, the surgeon to York Castle, stated that, in his opinion, the prisoner was perfectly insane. His LORDSHIP asked the jury whether they coulti convict after that evidence ? Verdict—Not Guilty, on the ground of insanity. William CartivriA,rht, John Glas•sop, Daniel Wilkins, Thomas I?atcliffe,George Pickering, Cornelius John Cundy,and William Windle, ere charged under the 3d Geo. IV., c. 95, s. 3, with having at Sheffield, on the 11th July, molested Joseph Snape and Wil liam Snape in their trade and business, and forcing them to contribute to a trades' union. Mr. Overend and Mr. Johnstone conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Heaton defended the prisoners. It appeared that, on the 11th of July, there existed a trades' union at Sheffield, called " The Table-blade Grinders' Union," a meeting of which union had been advertised to take place at two o'clock. On the morning of that day the prisoners at the bar went to several of the wheels in Sheffield, for the purpose of forcing the workmen to contribute their arrears and subscriptions, and to make them attend the meeting. The prisoners Wilkins, Glossop, and ltAteliffe, went early to the 'Washington wheel, where they obtAinrd money from some of the workmen. About 11 o'clock all the prisoners, with others, went to the Bee-hive wheel, where they asked a man named Mills to leave off work and attend the meeting; he refused, saying that he had two dozen blades to grind, but they threw his bands off, which prevented the machinery from turning the stones. At twelve o'clock all the pri soners, with forty or fifty other men, armed with sticks, went to the liorobin's wheel, at Red Bill, where the two Snapes worked. They were told they must attend the meeting, and were threatened if they did not attend. They again said they would not attend ; and after the prisoners and the rest had gone away the Snapes collected some of their friends to protect them. At half-past two some of the prisoners and a large party of men again went to Horobitt's wheel, and again demanded that the two Snapes should leave off work. Joseph Snape said that he wanted to go on, and that he would not go with them. They then stopped his work, by taking off his band, which a lad put on again. The prisoner Cundy then took off the band again, and struck Joseph Snape a violent blow on the mouth, which made it bleed, and knocked him down amongst the machinery, but fortunately, in falling, he broke the band, so that the machinery stopped. Other men came into the wheel, and then went away. The object of the outrage was to compel those who had ceased to subscribe to the union to do so, and likewise to force others to contribute and become subscribers. It appearing that the union had been dissolved, his LORDSHIP, at the close of the examination of the third witness, said that he thought the prosecutor should forgive the injury to his person, that the pri soners should plead guilty, and acknowledge that they had broken the law, and should enter into their own recognisances to come up and receive the judgment of the Court when called upon, and to be of good beha viour in the meantime. The prisoners having done so were discharged. (Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL.) Hairy Emrich was charged with having, at Hull, on the 3d of May last, uttered a forged bill of tx change for 121., well knowing it to be a forgery. Mr. Archbold prosecuted ; the prisoner had no counsel. The prisoner, it appeared, was a plumber and glazier, living at hull, and in April last he bought a quantity of lead from Mr. Turpin, of Hull, the price of which was 181. 13s. Gd. The prisoner paid 101. on account, and agreed to pay the balance in a month. Failing in that, Mr. Turpin applied to him for payment, and was told that if he would receive in payment a bill of exchange for 121., drawn on "John Anderson, of Kirton, near Brigg, plumber and glacier," the prosecutor could pay the balance. Mr. Turpin having made inquiries of a referee in hull, named by the Prisoner, took the bill in payment, giving 31. Gd. in change. 'When the bill arrived at maturity it was dishonoured, and it was then di*coyered that there was no such person as John Anderson, of Kirton, near Brigg, and that moreover the signature was in the prisoner's handwriting. His LORDSHIP, in summing up, told the jury that to sign the name of a nonexisting person to a bill of exchange was a forgery ; and that if the prisoner uttered such a biU, knowing that the signature was not that of the person whose signature it purported to be, he committed the felony with which he was charged. . The jury found the prisoner Guilty. He was then tried on another charge of uttering a forged bill of exchange, drawn on his father in law, who lives at Selby, and also found Guilty. His LORDSHIP sentenced him to be imprisoned one month on the first charge, and to be transported seven years on the second. POLICE INTELLIGENCE MABYLEB ON E. Charlotte Taylor, csek to Mr. John Churchill a medical publieKr, residing at No. 1, St, Petersburg • place,Bs s water, and John Taylor, her son, a boy about tourteen years of age, were brought before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Lung, charged under the following circumstances : Police.sergeant 27 D deposed that on the preceding evening, as he was on duty near Mr. Churchill's dwelling, he met the boy carrying on his shoulders a heavy bundle, and on stopping him and asking what it contained, he replied, "only some dirty clothes and broken victuals." Witness examined it, and found therein two half quartern loaves, some cooked and uncooked mutton, and some bacon, butter, can • dies, and other articles. lie repaired to the prose cutor's house, which was pointed out to him by the boy, whom he took with him, and on ringing the bell the female prisoner opened the door to him ; he questioned her as to whether she had given the property to the boy, when she replied that she had not, but she supposed he must have got it at a house lower down. Witness was then taking the b.,y to the station, when the female ran after him and said, " The boy is my own child, I gave him the victuals to carry home, and I hope you will overlook it, as he has no father." Both the prisoners were then conveyed to the station-house and locked up. The female prisoner, in answer to the charge, said, that she bought the bread herself, and that the drip ping was one of her perquisites. Mr. Churchill had no doubt whatever as to the whole of the articles produced being his. The wages of his cook were 161. per year, and there could there fore be no excuse on the score of poverty fur robbing him. He, however, did not wish to press severely against her, and he should prefer the case being dealt with summarily to its going before a jury. Mr. LONG told him that in such a matter he could not comply with his request. He should discharge the boy, but the mother must be committed for trial. She was then locked up. SO tl7'B WARK. Thomas Chaffey and Thomas Seaman, two well dressed young men, were yesterday, at Southwark Police-court, brought before Mr. Seeker, charged with stealing 201. from the person of James Ilsley, landlord of the Boise and Crown, Drury-lane. The complainant stated that on thepreceding night he went into the Strand Hotel and Tavern, near Catherine-street, and while standing at the bar the two prisoners walked into the house, and after some little time they entered into conversation. At length complainant mentioned that he wanted to go over the water, and he called a cab, and as the prisoners said they were going in the same direction he invited them into the vehicle, and when they got to the Surrey Coffee house, in Blackfriars-road, they all alighted and went into the house and partook of some coffee. As he had no small change about him, he took from his pocket a 10/. and 51. Bank of England notes, in which were wrapped up four sovereigns and two half sovereigns, 'and opening the notes in order to get change of one of the half-sovereigns to pay for the refreshment, Chaffey snatched the whole of the money out of his hands. Ile (complainant) immediately started up and demanded the restitution of his notes and gold, and was in the act of seizing Chafley when the latter passed the money into the hands of his fellow prisoner, at the same time insisting that he (complainant) had lent it to him, and that he should repay him on another occasion. Complainant, know ing the falsehood of the prisoner's assertion, again demanded the return of his money, but was only laughed at, and as the prisoners were about to quit the room, he called a policeman and gave them into custody, Chaffey for robbing him of 201., and his associate for receiving the money, knowing it to have been stolen. The complainant added that he was present when the prisoners were searched, upon which occasion Chaffey returned him the 51. note, and the remainder of the 201, together with other moneys, was found in the other prisoner's possession. In reply to Mr. Seeker, complainant said that he was perfectly sober at the time ; that he had pre viously seen Chaffey on two or three occasions at his house in Drury-lane. When he (complainant) de manded his money after it was snatched out of his hands in the way described, Ch3ffey began to abuse him, using the most scurrilous language. Chaffey had no claim whatever upon him, for he was a person that he knew very little about; and that he would not lend him a shilling, much less 20/. Policeman Romayne, 33 L, stated that about a quarter beiire ten o'clock on the preceding night, while on du'y in Blackfriars-road, he was informed that a man had been robbed of a considerable sum of money in the Surrey Coffee house. Ile immediately proceeded there, and found the complainant and the two prisoners in one of the boxes, w hen the complain. ant charged the two latter with plundering him of 201., and described at the same time the circumstances under which he had been deprived of his money. The policeman insisted on searching the prisoners, and in Seaman's pockets he found thirteen sovereigns, a ten pound note, together with live half. sovereigns, all of which money he said belonged to himself. While he (policeman) was searching Seaman, lie observed Chaffey h.nd over a five-pound note to complainant, saying, " Here it is back, but you know that you lent me the money." The other made answer and said, " You know it to be a falsehood ; you snatched all my money, and passed most part of it to your companion." The policeman aided that he subsequently took the prisoners in custody to the station house. Chaffey, who exhibited much impatience during the statement of the case, now begged that he might be permitted to give his version of the sffair. lie then proceeded to describe that be had met his fellow prisoner, for the first time in his life, on the previous night, at a public house near Drury lane, and that their acquaintance arose from the circumstance of the young man accidentally upsetting a glass of wine on the counter. That they left the house together, and went to Mr. Short's in the Strand, where they met with the compl-ainant, with whom they had something to drink, and who afterwards invited them to take a seat in a cab over the water. That they pulled up at the Surrey Coffee-house, and while sitting there he bor rowed 10/. of the complainant, and commenced tossing for money with his fellow-prisoner, and the complain ant joined in the play. Seaman, however, was the winner of a large sum of money from his antagonists, and complainant vexed at the circumstance, iinrne diately accused both of them with robbery, when the stakes that were laid were taken off the table. Complainant—l deny the truth of the assertion that I lent you a farthing, for the fact is, I would not trust you with a hint of porter. Chaffey continued—lt is useless for :Mr. Ilsley to say that I am almost a stranger to him, when he knows the fact to be otherwise, and that we have been long and intimate acquaintances. Why, it was only last Tuesday we were at the docks, and afterwards went to dine together. The prisoner then asked the policeman if he did not say, when accused of the rob bery in the coffee-house, that the complainant had lent him the money. The policeman replied in the affirmative, but added that the complainant denied the assertion, and insisted that he had been robbed of hi. money. Mr. SECKER asked the complainant if any betting or tossing was going forward in the coffee-house ? The complainant admitted that there was between the prisoners, but that it was all "shem," arid that he did not join in it, and he reiterated that he r%..s plundered of the money precisely in the way he described. Mr. SECKER observed, that he should call upon the prisoners to enter into sureties of 201. each, to appear at that . Court on th e 24 of January, and that the com plainant, if he wi s h e d it, 'e i g h t h ave an opportun i ty of i n p dicting them a t th e S ess ions. Ihe policeman was then directed to restore the whole of the money claimed by the complainant, rind the remainder to he given up to the prisoners. A MISCALCULATION —On Tuesday a young man, named Richardson, who had been pitying his address, s to the daughter of Mrs. Brunston, of the Bow Bridge Inn, Leicester, shot himself.
