LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 22. by two witnesses that when the information was given Arrowsmith was expressly cautioned that he was not to use it for the purposes of publication. Besides the document which had been read differed essentially from the article published, and contained none of the libel lous imputations contained in the article. Under these circumstances the defendants had no right to publish the gross attack on Mr. Ellins, which they had done, and he theiefore submitted that the rule must be made absolute. - - - GORDON, ' M.P. V. THE CHELTENHAM AND GREAT WESTER RAILWAY COMPANY. This case came before the Court upon appeal from thel decision of the Master of the Rolls, overruling a demurrer put in by the defendants, the proprietors of the Cheltenham and Great Western Railvi ay Com pany to the bill filed by the ,plaintiff. It appeared that the plaintiff had certain property in the neigh bourhood of the railway, near Cirencester, and near that railway, on their own land, were defendants erect ing certain engine-houses, workshops, and other places which the plaintiff contended were in direct opposition to the act of Parliament constituting the railway. Under these circumstances the plaintiff filed his bill, and obtained an injunction restrainink the defendants from proceeding with these works. To that bill the defendants demurred, and upon that demurrer coming on for argument before the Master of the Rolls, his Lordship overruled the demurrer, and gave the de fendants six months to appeal to this Court. From that decision the present appeal was brought. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Turner, ani Mr. Wood, appeared for the appellants; and Mr. Sutton Sharpe and Mr. Loftus Wigram were heard in support of the judgment below. The LORD CHANCELLOR, in the course of the argu ments stated it to be his clear opinion that the ques tion ought to be decided at law.—lt was ultimately arranged that the case should stand over to Saturday week, in order to afford an opportunity to the parties to come to some arrangement, or agree upon a case for the opinion of a court of law. Lord DENMAN said that there could be no doubt but that when Ellins had given the information he had done to the editor of a newspaper, and had fur nished him with paper to take down that information in writing, it was done with a 'view to publication. With regard to the difference between the article and the information, it was clear that the information was to be dressed up, and put into a readable form, in order to make it attractive to the public. Wheie both par ties were to blame, the Court could not sit to ascertain exactly the amount of blame due to each ; but in this case certainly Mr. Ellins had no right to come to the Court for the purpose of asking for a criminal information, and, therefore, the rule must be dis charged with costs. THE QUEEN V. THE CORPORATION OF HARWICH. , ;y . OLIVER V. LATHAM. The COURT then proceeded with the further argu ments in this part-heard tithe cause. COURT OF QUEEN'S VENCH, Nov. 22. THE QUEEN V. SAMPEON• The defendant in this case, Henry Sampson, had been an officer in the Excise, and had been convicted of obtaining money under false pretences, under the circumstances hereinafter mentioned. He was this morning brought up from Newgate to receive judg ment. Several affidavits were put in and read in miti gation of punishment. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL addressed the Court in aggravation. The Judges having consulted together, Mi. Justice WILLIAMS gave the judgment of the Court as follows :—llenry Sampson, you are brought here to receive the judgment of the Court, having been . convicted upon an indictment which sub stantially charges you, that you were an officer in the employment of the Excise, stationed at the town of Jarrow, in the county of Durham, in the Newcastle and North Shields district ; that a certain James Bray having been authorised by . the Justices to keep a common inn, and being desirous to obtain a license for that purpose, the expense of obtaining which would properly amount but to 71. 12s. 2id., that being the sum that he would be rightly called on to pay; you presented him an account for. 13/. 2s. 51d., as being the amount which he ought to pay for taking up the license ; that appears on the face of the indictment, and the evidence sustains that charge without a shadow of doubt. The Court has observed the statement you have made, that you have been in prison since the month of August last, and the Court has also observed a statement in your affi davit, which it always observes with great pain, that yon have a distressed family, their distress having been brOught on and aggravated by your conduct. The Court sees constantly with regret that offences of this sort fall heavily upon those who, to a certain extent, ought to have been considered by those on whom they are dependent as pledges for their good conduct. Your offence is one of considerable magnitude. It appears that you were not merely intrusted with the collection of the revenue, but that, according to your own account, you were entitled to have such trust re posed in you—a trust which has been employed by you as a means for readily committing the offence of which you have been convicted. You have broken your trust, and forfeited the confidence which has been reposed in you. This is matter of great aggravation. Taking all these circumstances into consideration, and bearing in mind the imprisonment you have al ready suffered, the Court feels it would not be doing its duty if it did not visit your offence with great se verity. The sentence of the Court upon you is that you be imprisoned and kept to hard labour in the Hourse of Correction at Ipswich for the space of 12 calendar months, and that in the meantime you be committed to the custody of the Marshal. The prisoner was removed in custody. CRIMINAL INFORMATION.—THE QUEEN V. ARROW-. SMITH AND KNIGHT. • The defendants in this case are the printers and proprietors of the Worcestershire Chronicle, and the Solicitor-General had obtained a rule calling upon them to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against them for the publication of a para graph reflecting upon the character of a Mr. Ellins, a Magistrate of the county of Worcester. Mr. Sergeant TALrOITRD now showed cause against the rule. It appeared that about four years since the Worcestershire Chronicle was established by a Joint- Stock Company, of which Mr. Ellins was one of the directors. Several gentlemen of the county professing Liberal principles subscribed together for the purpose of establishing this paper, of which the defendants were to have the management. Mr. Ellins subsequently ceased to be connected with the paper, having trans - ferred his scrip to Mr. Arrowsmith. In the course of last year, an article had appeared in the paper reflect ing severely upon the conduct of Mr. W. H. Ricketts, a Magistrate of the county, imputing to him that he had been guilty of jobbing, for the purpose of favouring his political supporters and his own relations in the erection of a station-house at 33romsgrove: Mr. Ricketts, in Michaelmas Term last, had obtained a rule nisi for a criminal informa tion against the defendants, who had immediately ap plied to Mr. Ellins on the subject, inasmuch as it was Mr. Ellins who had furnished them with the informa tion on which the article had been founded. Mr. Ellins had immediately gone to Worcester, and at the office of Mr. Elgie, his attorney, had had an inter view with Mr. Arrowsmith, in which he refused to have his name given up as the person who had fur nished the information, and promised to bear such part of the costs which defendants might incur, as Mr. Elgie, or any third party, might think fit. On inquiry, the defendants found the charges which plaintiff had brought against Mr. Ricketts were totally void of foundation, and, there fore, they adopted the only course that, as honest men, was open to them. They tendered a public apology in the open Court to Mr. Ricketts, expressing their sorrow that they should have been misled by a person on whose information they had placed implicit reliance. Mr. Ricketts behaved most hamsomely on the oc casion. He accepted the apology without insisting on the defendant's giving up the name of their informant, and consented to the rule being discharged, on pay merit of costs, as between attorney and client. They then wrote to Mr. Ellins three letters on the subject, of the costs. To the two first letters Mr. Ellins re turned no answer, and on the receipt of the last Mr. Ellins directed his attorney to write to defendants, desiring them not to trouble him with; any more of their letters, which were neither more nor less than attempts to extort money. An article then appeared in the defendants' paper, alluding to what had taken place on the subject of a criminal information, in which defendants expressed their sorrow that they should have been betrayed into a line of con duct which, on reflection, they could not but regret, on the information of a Magistrate, who having led them into a scrape, had left them to get out of it how they could:. The article then went on to regret that their informant should not clearly un derstand. what was due to his honour,. his integrity, his word, and his character ; and then characteriSed the person who had treated them in this manner as a cunning low-minded man. There was no name men tioned throughout the article ; nothing in it to make it peculiarly applicable to Mr. Ellins, except that it stated that the Informant was a Magistrate, so that nothing but his own conscience could suggest to Mr. Ellins that it was intended to apply to him. The Solicitor-General had applied, on behalf of Mr. El lins, for a rule nisi for a criminal information, which had been granted. In his affidavit, in applying for given the rule, Mr. Ellins did n o t d eny that he had iven the same information on the subject, but said that he had expressly cautioned Mr. Arrowsmith that the information was not to be used for the pur poses of publication. Now, could their Lordshi s believe such a statement ? Mr. Ellins, it appea l , had two days before been convicted of a nui sance respecting a road by Mr. Ricketts —two days before this interview with Mr. Arrowsmith, w hi c h took pace at Mr. Ellins own house. Here was Mr. Ellins closetted with the editor of the newspaper, giving him information respecting the conduct of Mr, Ricketts, furnishing him with paper to take a note of that conversation, and then saying—" But remem ber, this is on no account to be published ? " Why it reminded him of the gentleman who, fearing an arrest, told his servants on no account to commit a breach of the eace. There are hazel twigs growing in the grounds, but on no account use any of them to the ribs of the bailiff ; there is a horse-pond yonder, but pray do not duck him. Now that was scarcely more marvellous than the caution given by Mr. Ellins to Mr. Arrowsmith. Lord DENMAN--Why in a recent publication we have an account of a man being convicted of murder allude on similar testimony. I- to the conviction of Fagan. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD—yes, my Lord, in what I hope we may now be permitted to call a classical work. The Learned Gentleman then read the notes taken by defendant Arrowsmith, and read over to Ellins, in which the following passage otcurred— '" Show; his stupidity and carelessness in not look ing into the law." Under, these-eircum3tances, he submitted that the rule must be discharged with costs. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL submitted that the rule must be made absolute. .[t was distinctly sworn to THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 23, 1842.

It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Doolan that the husband and deceased had been out drinking on the evening of the 26th October, and they had returned home to No. 2, Royal Hospital-row, Chelsea (where the wit ness also lived), about a quarter past four o'clock. Shortly after she heard a noise of quarrelling in their room, but as this was no unusual circumstance, she paid no attention to it ; in a few minutes the deceased scanned " Murder" repeatedly, and called witness by name. She ran- out and found her leaning against the bannisters upon the stair-landing, the blood streaming from a wound in her head. George Augustus Davies, house-surgeon, said that deceased was admitted to the hospital suffering from a lacerated wound upon the scalp, and contusions over the body. Various sloughs formed, and on the 14th inst. she was seized with sickness and shivering. She gradually sank and died upon the 19th. He had no hesitation in saying that the wound in the head was the primary cause of her death. The Jury, after consulting for some time, returned a verdict of Manslaughter." Yesterday afternoon an inquiry, which was ad journed from Saturday, was resumed before Mr. Baker, at the Black Horse, Kingsland-road, on the body of Robert Burch Butchell, 21 . years of age. It appeared from the evidence that the deceased was the son of a gentleman formerly connected with the Coal Exchange. On Friday night the deceased had been passing the evening at the Eagle Tavern, and about three o'clock in the morning he was found lying on the pavement in Bath-street, City-road. On being conveyed to the station-house, and a surgeon sent for, it was found he was dead. Mr. Coward, sur geon to the police, said the deceased died from the rupture of a blood-vessel on the brain. Verdict— " Natural death." On the samel day twelvemonths Mr. Butcher lost another son who was accidentally drowned on his passage home from Quebec. SUDDEN DEATH IN THE STREET.YeSterday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Red Lion, High-street, Poplar, on the body of a man, whose name is un known, who died suddenly on Sattirday last in the street, near the East India Dock-house, Poplar. A witness deposed that immediately before the deceased expired, he said he was the chief mate of the Are thusa. Verdict —" Natural death."

MANDAMUS. In this case the Solicitor-General had obtained a rule nisi for a mandamus, calling upon the Corpora tion of Harwich to assess the amount of compensation due to Edward Chapman, under the provisions of the Municipal Corporation Act, for the loss of his office of clerk of the peace, town .clerk, and coroner of that borough. The COURT having heard Mr. Erie against the rule, and the Solicitor-General in support of it, directed that the rule for a mandamus to assess cdmpensation should be made absolute. SHERIFFS' COURT ', Nov. 22. EDWARDS V. GREATOREX. The defendant in this action was a wine-merchant, living at Holyhouse, New Kent-road; and the plaintiff a servant. The action was brought to recover the sum of V. ls. 6d. for work and labour performed by the plaintiff in his capacity as groom. It appeared that the plaintiff was hired in May last at 1/. a-week. This sum was:paid for some time, but ultimately went into arrear. The plaintiff left ; and as he could not ob tain his money, he brought the present action. It was stated in defence that the plaintiff had been engaged by Mr. Fetcham, who kept the house, and not by the defendant ; and evidence was adduced to prove the fact. Mrs. Fetcham stated that she purchased the lease of the house and furniture from Mr. Greatorex, who was her brother-in-law. He lived with her as a lodger. She was a widow. The furniture had been claimed by the creditors of the defendant, but her claim barred them. The defendant was the only lodger in the house, and had the full range of the house, and sometimes kept a horse. The defendant lived in the house before she did. The Jury, without the Learned Under-Sheriff summing up the evidence, returned a verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 22. IN RE CATHERINE MARIA FORDE. The insolvent in this case was the well known and favourite singer and actress who came out some years ago at Drury-lane, under the management of Mr. Elliston, as a pupil of Rooke's, the present eminent musical composer, and kept her position as prima donna for many years at that theatre, from whence she subsequently went to Vauxhall. The debts as stated in her schedule amounted in the aggregate to 4301. This day being appointed for hearing her petition she surrendered upon her bail, when. the Registrar called the name of Isaac Coles, who alone amongst the body of creditors had entered an opposition. This individual not appearing, the Court proceeded to examine Miss Forde, who stated that the principal creditor in the schedule was a medical gentleman, to whom she owed 1501., which debt was incurred as far back as the year 1830. The greater number of her creditors were milliners and dressmakers. There was nothing owing to her that could be made available to her creditors. Of certain property which was pledged, she handed the duplicates into Court previous to her being admitted to bail. The Learned COMMISSIONER said, it appeared, both by her schedule and the evidence given that, day in Court, that Miss Forde had done all that lay in her power to render restitution to her creditors, and he should therefore order her to'be discharged forthwith. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. A tall thin pale man, who stated that his name was George Williams, was brought before the Lord Mayor charged by a person named Check, who has the care of commercial chambers in Great St. Helen's. Mr. Check stated that several robberies had been committed in the chambers of merchants in Great St. Helen's, by individuals who called as if to transact business, at the times when the owners were engaged out of doors. The prisoner had gone up stairs that morning three different times, and had taken away the key of the chambers of Mr. Harris, a merchant, and returned no doubt for the purpose of using it, but, upon seeing that Mr. Harris was inside, he sud denly departed, although he had upon first calling in timated a wish to see that gentleman, who happened to be engaged elsewhere. The prisoner was taken into custody and searched, and the key was found in his possession. Soon afterwards a smart looking man, who had been seen in the building about two months ago, just before Mr. Harris's chambers were robbed of a parcel, was observed in the neighbourhood, and the moment he perceived the witness he turned away and hastily decamped but was soon apprehended. It was believed that the latter person who had taken to • his heels was an accomplice of Williams, and had sent him to the chambers furnished with instructions how to act, for the key alluded to had been taken from a secret place in which it was the custom to deposit it when the chambers were empty. Williams said he had nothing to say, but that as he went into the building to inquire for a gentleman at . the request of another gentleman he picked up the key. The LORD MAYOR—Where do you reside ? Wil liams—ln Tothill-street. The LORD MAYOR—At what number? Williams —I think it is No. 8. The LORD MAYOR—Who is the landlord ? Wil liams—l don't know. I have been there only two days, and that's a week ago. The LORD MAYOR—Then how do you get your livelihood ? Williams—l don't exactly know.— (Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—Of course you can bring per sons here of repute to speak personally of your cha racter ? Williams—Oh, certainly. I shall write for gentlemen immediately. The LORD MAYOR desired that in the mean time the other man should be brought up, and plaeed along aide the prisoner Williams. neatnessratheinr ahi The gaoler ten introduced Mr. John Wilson, who dashing e, aanpdpehareawncase. cut covered There w w it as h a in g u oo eh d Mackintosh, held his head up, which is a dark one, and spoke with an air of confidence and with volu bility. Mr. R. Harris, who was alluded to in the evidence just given, stated that he kne w no thi ng o f either- of the prisoners, and that his chambers had been robbed. Mrs• Check, the wife of the first witness, stated that she and her husband were in charge of the chambers. She had seen Mr. Wilson frequently, perhaps three or four times a day, go up stairs to the offices as softly as possible. On the day Mr. Harris's parcel was lost she met him coming out of that gentleman's office, where she thought he had been upon business. The LORD MAYOR—And you say, Mr. Check, that when Mr. Wilson saw you in the street he shunned vou ? Mr. Check—The instant he saw me and a lit tle girl who was with me, and who pointed him out as the man who had been about the offices, he went off quickly, and upon being pursued took to his heels • I had Mr. Williams in custody at the same time. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, Mr. Wilson, pray how do you get your living ? Mr. Wilson—l am an in dependent man, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—SO you look certainly ; but we can't always depend upon appearance. Where do you live ? Mr. Wilson—ln the Kingsland-road. The LORp MAYOR—Whereabouts ? I don't wish to mention, as a respectable man can have no wish to have himself published under such circumstances. The LORD MAYOR—If you are a respectable man, you can have no objection to give us a proof of that fact. Mr. Wilson—l have no objection to tell you in confidence. The LORD MAYOR... 4 shall not communicate con fidentially with you, What have you to say to this charge ? Mr. Wilson—l deny that I ran at all. I certainly called at the chambers two months ago, and I met the lady (Mrs. Check) upon the stairs, but I was not coming out of Mr. Harris's offices at the time. I know nothing of any parcel or any robbery. The LORD MAYOR—Mr. Wilson, your name is not Wilson. Mr. Wilson—lt is not, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—I know your face well. Mr 4 Wilson —You do know me, your Lordship. The -Loan MAYOR-Why did you run away if you had nothing to fear ! Mr. Wilson—That's all a mis , take. I walked on in A policeman—He ran so fast, my Lord, that I had some difficulty in catchin g him (Lau g hter.) The LORD M AYO *-- • 11 —y 011 must bring some one here Mr. Wilson, to speak of your character ? Mr. Wilson—Oh, certainly I shall. Will your Lordship just allow the officer to walk with me a few streets off, and I will soon find a friend? The LORD MAYOR—No, no, yo u've given us one run already to-day.--(Laughtef.) Mr. Wilson and the other prisoner then sent for friends, but nobody appeared to speak of either, and the - Lord Mayor said he should remand them both till to-morrow (this day), when, perhaps,-a numerous body of friends who might read the newspapers, would attend to give testimony as to their deserts, A young Frenchman, named Victor Du Temple,. was charged with having defrauded Miss Borain, of No. 26, Clement's-lane. Ernest Rivieri, a waiter at the house, stated that the prisoner came to the house, said he had just ar rived from France, ordered his dinner and a bed, and mentioned that it was his intention to bring his lug gage, as soon as possible, to the house. After having received the accommodation required, to the amount of is. 6d., he said he had no money, and endeavoured to escape, but was pursued and apprehended. The LORD MAYOR asked the prisoner what he bad to say ? Victor—lt is all true, sare. The LORD MAYOR—Why did you do this trick ? Victor—l was hungry, sare, and I had no money. The LORD MAyoß—Where is your passport ? Victor—l never had any. I came here, sare, to see the country, from .Boulogne. The LORD MAYOR—I suppose you came to see how long you could do John Bull ? Victor (evidently not understanding the question)—Yes, sare. The waiter said that such was the constant practice. The LORD MAYOR—How long have you been in London ? Victor—Three weeki, sare. __ _ The LORD MAYOR—And you have satisfied your hunger in this way since that time. Victor—Yes, sare. The LORD MAYOR—Then you must go to prison till we hear more of you. BOW-STREET. A respectable-looking boy named John Watson, was charged with stealing an opera-glass, the property of his master, Gatoni Burgoni, jewel case-maker. The prosecutor, a foreigner, stated, that the boy had been in his service as errand boy, and had taken an opportunity of stealing the article in question from the shop. His mother had heard of the matter, and she immediately sent down to the prosecutor six shil lings, at the same time, stating that the boy should work out the rest. The boy had, in the mean time, been taken into custody. He agreed to the mother's proposal, and took the six shillings, and he, therefore did not wish to press the charge. Mr. JARDINE said, that as the prosecutor was a foreigner, he probably was not aware of the law with respect to the act he had done. He had, in the true meaning of the act, compounded a. felony. The prosecutor said he did so because the boy was so young, and because his parents were so respectable. Mr. JARDINE—And, in doing so, you have rendered yourself liable to be transported for 14 years, and if you had not been a foreigner, I should have placed you where the boy now stands. The prosecutor said he was certainly ignorant of the law. Mr. JARDINE ordered the money to be given back to the mother of the boy ; and then he wished to know if the prosecutor intended to pursue the charge. The prosecutor gave back thb money, and said he did not wish to press the charge against the boy. Mr. JARDINE then ordered the boy to be discharged, directing his mother to take strict charge of him, as he had no doubt that the boy had got amongst bad company. CLERKEIVWELL. John William Walter was charged with fraudu lently assuming the character of inspector of police, and thereby obtaining admission into several houses. From the evidence, it appeared that on the previous night, at about twelve o'clock, the prisoner came up to the constable on duty in Brighfon-street, King's cross, and represented himself as an inspector of police of the N division. He said he was in search of a woman who had robbed a gentleman of money and valuables. The policeman accompaniel him, and they searched the Duke of Wellington, Marquis Wel lesley, and Silver Cross, searching in each for a girl whom he called " Fair Fanny." The proprietor of the latter house supposing him to be what he really was, gave him into custody. The prisoner gave his occupation and address as " Plumber, York-place, Barnsbury-park, Islington." He said he had been robbed of money and two gold rings, and had assumed the character for the purpose of recovering them. He was fined 51., or one month's imprisonment. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.

Plantation has been dull, and the sales are not above 250 hhds at previous rates. The quantity of B.

TEA.—The important news from China has caused the market to become very uncertain, and few parties are disposed to do business, although the quotations are nominally ld to lid per lb. lower than before the accounts reached. The heavy public sales amounting to above 60,000 packages have been postponed till Monday next, and some anxiety is felt for the receipt of the letters which may have been brought by the Over land, Express. 'There seems every prospect now of increased extension on the part of the Chinese in cul tivating and supplying us with the leaf. 'The delive ries are moderate. TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is steadier at 48s 3d to 48s Gd per cwt on the spot. Town is Ms 6d per cwt.

The barometer fell very rapidly at London 00 the 22d, and passed its minimum, or lowest readink,„o: the 23d, (28.783), a fearful storm raging a the apps round the southern coasts of the island. It that the fall of the barometer did not occur at her e deira, until the 24th, so that the wave mu' eb een of swept with irresistible fury, over the spac e England and Madeira during the short i nter m ylj ble) twenty-four hours; (or what is much more Pr°'froin the trough of the wave must have exten de n or th' London to a point about 360 miles west, O r h les* west of Madeira ; the usual rate at w t storms travel being about fifteen miles per b° :. .. t1 " i031 00 An interesting point is presented by the trs' nn this of the barometer occurring in Septembe r, fora 24th, and the curves of September and Oetub e r iL t icall the 15th of each month respectively, being I " — ,, t her. as both the minima were attended with' bad vife" b ", e o Upwards of six-tenths of an inch of rain bav in fi g gs 044 registered at the September minimum, it bee ° l, the only interesting, but highly important, to Stu " 0 .,' ins barometric changes ; for were we able to de fluid be the form and direction of these waves, a step w°n i nent gained in meteorological science, and in a dePtipthoo in which nearly all attempts to unravel the mena presented have hitherto been baffled.
