Defendant, how ever, had no interest in the business ; the name .of "Oury and Co." referring•to his (Crook's) wife under her maiden name, and himself. The defendant was only his servant, and.had not authority to give orders or pay money without Crook's instruction. The learned Under-Sheriff, in - summing up the evi aence, directed the jury that if, they were satisfied that the defendant had acted in such a manner as to lead the public to believe that he was one.of the principals, and 40 obtained credit, he would be liable for that debt the same as, if he were a partner. The evidence was con tradictory as to what took place at the introduction of Hr.

CLERKENWELL.--/Tenry Webster, a well-dressed man, with a Jewish Cast of features, was charged with having in his possession three gold watches and 19 boxes of cigars, without being able to give a satisfactory ac count of their possession: The first witness called was IVir. Edwin , Langford. He said—l reside at 23, Broad Quay, Bristol. •lam a watchmaker. On the 21st of February last •my house was broken into, and 120' gold watches, 100 silver" watches, and. 100 gold .chains—in all of the value of 2,7ool.—taken away. From information -I came to and, about seven o ' c lo c k i n th e town evening' on of Saturday the sam last ed ; day, I called on the_ prisoner at, his residence, which is a private house. I asked him if he had any watches for sale, as I wished to purchase some. He took me into the front parlour, and produced a case of watches, amongst which was the gold one I now Pro duce. I positively swear it was part of the property I lost in the robbery. I reco gn i se d it at once by the pe culiarity of the dial-plate ; but from the marks inside I was more positive. I asked him ,the price of it. He replied 101. ; that is much under the price, as I could not sell a similar watch under twelve guineas. He then produced another case of watches, and I selected another (produced). I remarked to him that the name "French, London, did not look genuine; when he replied, " Well, perhaps not, this watch has most likely come from some 'prig' Or another, but I never buy watches from prigs, and will a l wa y s g ive up the party I had them from." I then offered him 81. for the first watch I looked at, but he would not take it. I gave him eventually 91. 10s. for it. I then asked him if he bad any more watches of the same kind ; he said, "No, I may have some on Monday or Tuesday, say Tuesday, but I am sorry'yOu did not .call yesterday (meaning Friday), when I bad some:" We left the house to gether, and when we got to the corner of College-street, and as we were walking along, he said, "I don't think that you saw that 'a name has'been filed out from the plate of that watch, do not show it in London, as it may lead to identification. I never show my stock in London, seldom in the country, and there they are all quiet." I went again on the Tuesday, but he s.lid he could not get any of the same kind I'd watches. I looked over the stock, but said I would call again another day. On Wednesday I went to look at a chronometer I had pre viously seen. Whilst I was there Sergeant Jackson, 11 H, accompanied by Sergeant Mason, 25 S, and constable Bow, 333 S, came in, according to my direction, The officers then starched the house, and a nest of draw ers was found in a small room which was fitted up as a jeweller's workroom. In one of the drawers was a gold watch case which I can identify as mine, although it has been "re-christened" a's it is called—that is, the original number I placed on it was 7,149 ; since it was stolen from me a figure of one has been placed before the seven, and the one has been made into a four, mak ing the number 17,449. In another drawer was the movement of the same watch with the name filed out. In another compartment I found another gold watch case, also mine, and the works likewise. That is all I have to say at present. The prisoner, who several times wished to correct the witness, on being asked what he had to say, replied,'" I can account for the possession of the watches, and can tell who I bought them of." Mr. TyrwhiEt--You will be doing yourself a service by stating what you know of the party. Who is he ? Prisoner—l should like to consult* a solicitor before that. Ido not know where to get one, as I have not been long in town. Mr. Tyrwhitt—lt is only right that you should have a legal adviser. I shall therefore remand :you to enable - • you to have one. It has been ascertained that the prisoner has been a resident in Bedale, in Yorkshire. On his person was found a receipt for 8001. lodged in his name at Hankey's bank, in September, 1854. "J.

WANDSWORTH.--A veil-dressed and lady-like woman, attired in mourning., who gave the name of Arabdla Euphania Preston Radermacher, was charged with unlawfully intermarrying with Mr. James Joseph Radermacher, her former : husband, Charles d'Olvarez Robertson, being still alive. Mr. Charnock, the barrister ' appeared for the prosecu tion, and Mr. Hoblet attended on behalf of the prisoner. Mr. Charnock detailed thefacts of the case, and added that he appeared to prosecute on behalf of the father, and not the son. Witnesses were then called, who proved that the pri soner (formerly a governess is the family of Mr. Rader macher, sen., of Fulham), was married to Mr. Robert son, an architect, on March 20, 1845, and again married to Mr. James Radermacher on the 15th October ' 1854. The case W wagthen remanded, a witness who had been summoned to show that Mr. Robertson was alive not having attended. SOUTH WARK. EXTRAORbINATIY AFFAIR. On Wednesday afternoon, a well-dressed person, represent ing himself to be a brewer at Berkhen3pstead, attended before Mr. Combe with a young girl, stated not to be 14 years old, but who, singularly enough, was far advanced in pregnancy, to complain of the conduct of the parish authorities of Bermondsey in refusing to receive the girl. The applicant stated that the girl wbo was with him had resided for, some time withan old lady at Berkhemp stead, and, until recently, was much respected by her, but a few• days ago it was ascertained that the girl was far agvancel in the family-way, which induced the old lady to discharge her. Being an orphan, she was taken to the workhouse there, when the relieiing officer re fused to receive her, stating, as a reason, that she be longed to, the parish of Yermondsey, and she must be taken there. Applicant consulted with the old lady about the circumstance, and having business to transact in London he consented to bring the girl to London. Consequently that morning he went to Bermondsey workhouse . with her, and told the officer that she be longed to that parish, and that he wished to leave her, but the officer refused to have anything to do with her. Applicant, therefore, wished to keow whether the parish authorities of Bermondsey could not be compelled to re ceive her. Mr. Combe—How old is this child ? Applicant—l believe she is not quite 14. She was taken into the old lady's service at 10 years of age, and has continued with her until the present time. Mr: Combo—She seems to be in the family way. How is that ? ' _ _ _ Applicant 7 —l understand she has formed connections with some-young men at Berlthemp , tead, and as soon as her state was found out by the old laly sh• discharged her, and sent her to the Union. Mr. Comhe—But who recommended her to be brought to London Applicant—The relieving officer at Berkhempstead. The old lady also requested me to bring her to Bermond sey, as that was her father's parish. Mr. Corn be—Has she any parents living Applicant—No, sir. That was the reason thp old lady took care of her. Mr. Coinbe—l advise you to take her back to Berk hempstead. Will you consent to that ? Applicant— Well, I suppose I must ; but I have busi ness in London, and shall not be able to return until the evening. I shall either leave by the four o'clock train or the six o'clock, and I am willing to take her with me and pay all expenses, provided she meets me at the rail way station. Mr. Combe—l'll send her in charge of one of nty'offi cers, and; if you are not there to receive the girl, you must expect to hear more of the affair. Murray, one of the warrant officers, consequently took her'to the railway station as directed, where he met him, who received charge of her, and took her back to Berkhempstead.

From the earliest period to the present day, every time the postage was reduced and greater fa cilities given to the public the postal revenue increased. . Canning gives great vredit in his report to the late Lieutenant Waghorn for opening the Overland Mail rpute to India. In the archives of St. Martin's le-Grand, , the accounts of the Post-office revenue are perfect from 1685 to the present time. Amongst them is an item of expenditure in 1687 entered thus—" Paid to Edward Lock, of Hounslow, for a man to deliver letters at the camp, 41." From these archives it appears that all the postmasters in the West of Eng land were well affected to William 111., and rendered him great assistance when he landed in this country. These documents also reveal some curious particulars of the abuse of the franking system. Among the items franked by the Holland mail packets in 1695 were "some parcels of cloth for the clothing colonels in Lords Grey and North's regiments." Also a pack of cover v er n m ande. n t abolishedhounds. iOtniley well lt known before tthheatfranka pairing privilege vi b le u te ks w ki aa n official l g to bgorehecyhpesoetw, and ere were fran great discoverers and long-range inventors for t sent in the mail bag.

Cases of detected wholesale and retail robbery qf newspapers before they are posted are men tioned in the report as having been attributed to Post office delinquencies. The present staff of St. Martin's-le-Grand consists of 2,500 persons. There are now nearly 6,000 more Post-offices in" the United Kingdom than there were fifteen years ago. The mail communication with the Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, Scotland, Ireland, and the north of England, and that on the Clyde, has Gfzetzl smtilalilcooonmsi recently been, or is in progress of being, improved. Travelling post-offices have just been introduced into to l Ireland.eave t he The arrangementsP o stmas er between Constantinople and the Crimea with Lord : consi ders t i n t Rag lan. Revisions, with improvements in the scales of sa lary, have just been made at the poet-offices of Edin burgh, Dublin, Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, and Bristol, though not ,yet carried into effect, The encou ragement which the Postmaster -General has given to his subordinates to insure their lives has already led to 200 insurances. The report intimates the probability of the postage on newspapers and closed mails to and through France, from England, bein g re d uced, and that " so far as facilities for all intercourse by post can avail the intimate relations of England and Fraiic e w ill be promoted to the utmost." In 1740 there was only a post from London to Edinburgh three times a week, and on one occasion the mail from the English to the Scotch metropolis contained one letter. In 1623 a mail containing despatches for the Secretary of State was sent by express from Plymouth to London in 57 hours ; ex press trains perform the distance now in five hours. THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH BETWEEN LONDON AND BALAKLAVA. (Front Me Times of this day.) On Wednesday, the 25th, the first telegraphic mes sage was received from Varna, announcing that the electric communication between that place and Balak lava had been completed. There is now no reason why the Commander-in-Chief in the Crimea should not com municate with the office of the Minister of War in four or five hours. Henceforward, if due despatch be used, we are, as it were, present at the siege of Sebastopol. To state the case without the least exaggeration, the daily papers, which are published in London every morning on, six days of the week, should inform the British public of all that has occurred in' the siege works before Sebastopol on the preceding day. We are now writing on the 26th ; our intelligence, as yet, reaches no further than the 19th ; that is, we are more than a week behind-hand on the old system, as compared with results which we have a right to expect from the improvements yesterday brought into operation. It must not be imagined, therefore, that we are making it a matter of accusation against Lord Ragla❑ that he did not, when the communication was opened, instantlytake advantage of it. A hundred petty obstacles, of which we can form no idea, may have stood in his way. We are speaking of the future, not of the past, nor even of the prevent. • It is not too much to expect that the country should receive the earliest possible infor mation upon a subject so interesting to us all. Some Of us are in the deepest anxiety as to the fate of relatiVes and friends, and all of us have made the greatest sacrifices to assist in carrying this war to a successful issue ; it is, therefore, but reasonable that we should receive the earliest and most accu rate intelligence as to the progress of the operations. The battle of Inkerman was rightly named the soldiers' battle; let the war with Russia be treated as the peoples' war, or it will infallibly end in disgraceful concession, or still more disgraceful defeat. Electric communication is established between Balaklava and London. It is perfectly right that to the military authorities at one end of the wires and to official personages at the other the first facilities should be offered. It is quite right, in other words, that when the Government require the use of the telegraph for public purposes they should have the preference over private persons ; but, when the public exigencies are once satisfied, the telegra phic communication between Balaklava, and London must and should be as open to the public as the communication between London and Holyhead. The day for mystification is for ever gone by, and any attempt to confine electricity to the service of Downing street would speedily and infallibly recoil upon the authors of it. We cannot anticipate a decision adverse to the public service, although the First Minister last night, in answer to a question from Mr. Layard, affected to consider the point as one yet under consideration. " I am not now able," said Lord Palmerston, "to state whether arrangements have been made for affording the use of the telegraph to the public ; but I will answer that part of ihe . hon. gentleman's question another day." Even if the Government should propose to themselves, as a patriotic task, that of hoodwinking the public, or debarring them from access to the tele graph, they must see clearly enough that detection within eight or nine days at latest must follow upon any attempt at mystification. In the interval they will he perpetualiy badgered with questions ; and, as at best they can only fence them off for a few days, is it worth while incurring the amount of obloquy which will cer tainly be their portion for so unimportant a result as that of spiting the people who find blood and money for the war? The subject is one of so much importance, and the events now occurring before Sebastopol are of so momen tous a character to the country, that we cannot refrain from expressing some little surprise at the spirit in which the matter was taken up last night by the First Minister of 'the Crown. Were we in times of profound peace, and had the question been one of the most jocular cha racter, it could scarcely have been treated with more levity by !Lord Palmerston. There is a time for every thing, even for flippancy and bad jokes. Mr. Layard, after referring formally to the opening of the telegraph, asked if any news had been received from the Crimea Lord Palmerston answered—" The First Lord of the Admiralty received messages by it to-day and yesterday. These messages don't contain any news from the Crimea, but simply announce that the telegraph is opened." (A laugh.) Mr. Layard continued his questions with per fect temper and moderation.—" Am I to understand that no information has been received with reference to the siege —whether the bombardment has been suc cessful or not l" This is a point upon which some little interest certainly is felt out of doors. Lord Palmerston's method of calming the public anxiety was succinct enough—" The telegraphic message does not bear upon that subject"—(laughter)—and so on. Lord Palmerston seems to have established such a character as a comic performer that the house is prepared for a display even when his words to the reader do not appear to be of a very humorous description. It will soon be with him as with the late Mr. Liston—his mere appearance will be the signal for general hilarity. Be this, however, as it may, it is at least satisfactory to find him, in answer to a second question from Mr. Roebuck, stating that it is his intention to work upon Lord Raglan through Lord Panmure "to let us have every day some infor mation from the seat of war." In the transactions of ordinary mortals this would follow as a matter of course from the opening of telegraphic communication between the Crimea and London, but we have been so long ac customed to see all business connected with the public service so negligently transacted that we really feel as though we ought to erect votive tablets to the three noble and illustrious lords who are about to unite their strength for the attainment of so difficult an object. The unofficial mind can detect no extraordinary difficulty in preparing and forwarding a few brief telegraphic notes once, or, if need be, twice a-day. The counting-house of every merchant in London, with the help of a junior clerk and an errandboy, manages to perform the same feat on every business-day throughout the week. FIRST REPORT OF T_HE POSTMASTER- GENERAL. According to the report of the Postmaster-Gene ral the gross poStal revenue of Austria in 1852 was 906.805/. ; of Bavaria, 77,648/. ; of Denmark, 70,963/. ; of France, 1,864,3801. ; o f H o ll an d, 115,21 7 1 . ; of Prussia, 1,285,5961. ; of Russia, 771,0801. ; of Saxony, 133,5771:; of S we d en , 66,8881. ; of the 'United States, 1,273,7781. ;of Great Britain, 2,422,1681. The postal revenue of Liverpool in' 1854 was 91,9091. ; of Manchester, 74,7361. •, of Dublin 53,676/. ; of Edin burgh, 41,6121. ; of Glasgow, 58,1361. Dublin is the only plaza amongst the large cities and towns in which the postal revenue is decreasing. The East Indies, the Cape of Good Hope, Mauritius, and Van Diemen's Land, are the only important dependencies to which the postage on letters from England is more than 6d. The Postmaster-General considers that the general reduction of the colonial postage to 6d. has proved a good measure, and that there 'is a prospect of the reduction being universal, which will be of immense importance, particularly with respect to the correspon dence of the. East Indies, which is enormous from this country. A. century ago 72,0001. was paid out of the postal revenue for pensions ; at the present time there are only three, viz., 4,700/. a year to the Duke of Grafton as 'representative of the Duchess of Cleve land, which commenced in 1686 ; 4,0001. a year to the heirs of the Duke of Schomberg, which commenced in 1695 ; and 5,0001. a year to the Duke of Marlborough, which commenced in 1708. In the Accountant , General's office, 80,000 Po s t mas t ers ' l etter bills, and t 5,500 receipts for - disbursements have to be examined every week. The Postmaster-General states in his re port that • great facilities would be afforded to the Post-office if the pub!ic would post letters and news papers as early as possible, write the number of house and the name of the street and town legibly on the address of every letter, and provide a letter-box at every door. There can be no doubt that immense num bets of ietter,i are delayed - argent to - the Dead - Letterr- - office, owing to the stupid nomenclature of streets and numbering,of houses in England. In no civilised coun try in the world is this so disgraceful as in Great Britain. The Postmaster-General states.that there are 50 King streets, 50 Queen-streets, and 60 John-streets and Wil liam-streets in London. Every street in one continu ous line, or a well-defined part of it, should have one name distinct from all others in the same city or town, and the houses should he numbered in a successive order, from one upwards. The same numbers should never I occur in the same street, not even on the opposite side of it. " A woman in London," says the report, " living between numbers 14 and 16, numbered her . house_ 'number on it which had ' been used for revenuec of the 95, because 'she had an old • brass plate with that residence.

The annual general meeting of the Royal National Life-boat Institution was held yesterday at]the London Tavern. Rear-Admiral his Grace the Duke of Northum berland occupied the chair. The meeting was numerous, and highly respectable. The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, who was received with applause, said that this institution, among all the societies in the United Kingdom, was the only one which had for its object the saving of life from shipwreck. He had much satisfaction in stating that seamen, daring the past year had in several cases established life-boat sta tions along the coast chiefly from contributions among themselves, and bad very much distinguished themselves in the saving of human life in more cases than one. (Hear, hear.) This institution had had the pleasure of . subscribing in aid of those praiseworthy and spirited efforts. A great change had occurred in their institution during the past year ; he referred to the aid they now received from Government. That aid, however, was given in a vary judicious way. The Government, wish ing them to increase rather than to diminish their efforts, had decided not to contribute towards the expense of life-boats and the like. Their aid was to be given in the way of paying the crews of life-boats established by the institution; and in the shape of liberal 'rewards to those instrumental in saving life. It was not the amount received from Government that was valu able ; it was the acknowledgment of the principle which was to be chiefly prized, During the la.,t year 130 lives had been saved by the exertions of the institution, under the blessing of God. Many cases of distinguished courage bad been seen ; as at Whitburn, in Durham, where the boat went out eight times and saved 60 lives. However, he regretted to say that 1,500 lives had been lost by ship wreck during the year ' • and of these at le as t one -h a lf might have been saved had there been a sufficient num ber of life boats along the coast. He regretted also to announce the loss the institution had suffered in the death of Captain Manby, whose mortar apparatus had proved so invaluable. That gallant officer himself saw upwards of 1,000 lives saved during his life by means of ' his invention. The boats now belonging to the institution were all in the highest state of order, well supplied with storehouses and launching carriages, and all the crews had the greatest confidence in them. Before he sat down he would do himself the pleasure of stating to the meeting that the Emperor of the French, to show the interest he had in their society, had sent them a contribution of 500 f. (Loud applause.) The report was then read by the SZOBETARY (Mr. Lewis), which stated that the life-boats of the institu tion had saved during the past year 132 shipwrecked persons, and that the society had granted rewards amounting to 3101., besides many honorary rewards, for rescuing 223 others. The institution has now 50 life boats under its charge. The accounts showed that the sums expended during the year on the objects of the society amounted to 3,6721. 15s. 4d.; while the gross re ceipts were only 1,7441. 19s. 4d.; leaving an excess of expenditure over income of 1,9271. 16s. This amount, deducted from the capital of the society, left them in possession only of the reduced sum of 6,7611. 9s. 6d. Captain SHEPHERD, H.C.S., Deputy Master of the Trinity House, moved the adoption of the report. He congratulated the society ou the aid given by Govern- ment through the Board of Trade. It was to be ob served, however, that that aid was given in a way which would not by any means free the society and the public from increased exertions. On the contrary, that aid was given only as a reward for exertions, so that the more good they effected the snore money would Government give them. The society, since its institution in 1824, had b‘ en instrumental in saving about 10,000 lives, and it was to be hoped that, with the countenance now given by Government, they would be enabled greatly to in , crca,:e the sphere of their operations, and materially t add to the benefits which the institution conferred upon society. • Mr. GREGSON, M.P., seconded the motion, expressing the disappointment he experienced on observing that the subscription list contained the names of so few of the mercantile houses in the City. The report was unanimously adopted and ordered to be circulated. Mr. MASTERI lAN, M.P. moved the following resolution : —" That, this meeting, recognising the national importance of the loyal Life•boat Institution, and the benefits which have resulted to the cause of humanity from its long-con tinued and successful exertions, pledges itself to use its best influence to increase the resources of the society This meeting further desires to express its sincere ere: that, notwitstanding the large number of lives that have been saved during the past year through the direct agency of the life-boats of the institution and other means. upwards of 1,500 persons - perished from ship. wreck within the same period on the coasts of the United Kingdom,• a circumstance which more than ever demands the renewed and increasing exertions of the Life-boat Institution, which may thus, under the blessing of God, be the instrument of lessening much of the misery which such a large sacrifice of human life must necessarily cause." Mr. WM. GOTTON, F.R.S., I3econdod the resolution, which was unanimously agreed to.

This was an action entered on behalf of the barque Princess Victoria. of 372 tons burden, against the Helen, a ship of 860 tons, for damage by collision on the sth of January last. The vessel proceeding was bound from Liverpool to Maranham, with a cargo cf general merchandise, and the Helen was on her voyage from Liverpool to Havannah, laden . with salt. It appeared that the collision took place shortly after 7 o'clock p.m. on the day above-mentioned, off the coast between Holy head and Bardsey Island. On the part of the barque it was alleged that the accident would not have occurred if the Helen had kept her lull, instead of starboarding. At the time she was descried she was on the port tack, and, in consequence of her having put her helm to star board, she ran stein on into the other vessel. It was submitted on behalf of the Helen that the collision took place solely from the want of a good look-out on board the barque. Dr. Bayford and Dr. Twiss appeared for the Princess Victoria ; Drs. Addanns and Robinson were heard for the owners of the Helen. The Trinity Masters were of opinion that the blame rested solely with the Helen. The Court pronounced for the damage. BAIL COURT. , DUNLOP V. FERGUSON-BREACH OP PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. Mr. Sergeant Thomas and Mr. Harcourt appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Edwin James and Mr. Pollock for the defendant. This was an action for an alleged breach of promise of marriage. The defendant pleaded that he did not 'pro mise, and that, if he had promised, the plaintiff had ab solved him from that promise. Mr. Sergeant Thomas, in opening the case, said that the plaintiff was a young lady about 24 years of age, and had never left the home of her parents, which was at Greenock, Scotland. In 1849 the plaintiff and de fendant became acquainted, the mothers of both of them having been known to each other for many years. The plaintiff's father was formerly in the East India service ; the defendant's father, as well as the plain tiffs brothers, and the defendant himself, being in the same service. On the death of the plaintiff's father, her mother took a house at Greenock, her native place, and let apartments. Amongst other persons the defendant and his brother went there in 1840 ; and after living-there a short time, the defendant and the plaintiff fell in love with each other, the plaintiff being at that time 17, and the defendant 24 years of age, both parties being highly respectable. They exchanged several pledges of affection, such as their miniatu r e s, hair, and such things as young people do exchange under similar circumstances. Soon after this the defendant went on a voyage to CalcOtta, and during his absence he wrote several letters to the plaintiff. After several voyages h© was made a captain, and the day for their marriage was fixed for the 24th day of January, 1854 ; but, on the 14th of that month,, the defendant wrote a letter to the plaintiff, stating that his mother was un well and wished him to make another voyage before his marriage ; and on the 17th he went to the plaintiff's house and said he should like to go another voyage before he married, upon which her mother said that he was acting as though he wished to deceive her daughter. The defendant at once flew into a passion, and said they had struck a fatal blow to his heart, and-rushed away. He then wrote another letter to' the plaintiff's mother, stating that he was sorry that he bad acted as he bad done, and asked the plaintiff to forgive him, saying that he was still devoted to her. That very day, or the day following, he was seen walking with a Miss Fame, whom he afterwards made his wife. It was for the jury, under these circumstances, to say what damages the plaintiff WAR entitled to. The defendant's income as captain was about 2001. per annum, and the percentage on the freight amounted to about another 2001. Evidence was then adduced on the part of the plain tiff in support of this view of the case. No witnesses were called on behalf of the defence. Mr. Sergeant Thomas summed up the evidence of the plaintiff. Mr. Edwin James then addressed the jury on the part of the defendant, and said that it was out of his power to call witnesses, in con , equence of the defendant being prevented by the Jaw from entering the witness box in cases of this nature. Tt was evident that the defendant had intended to fulfil his engagement with the plaintiff up to the last moment of the transaction, and that it would have been completed if it bad not been for the unwise haste of the mother, who would not listen to the dictates of prudence, and put off the matriage for,a short time. It was clear that the defendant bad no dishonourable motive, and, therefore, a ver y sma ll a mount of damages would sufficiently punish him for his lcond uct. Mr. Justice Coleridge, in summing up, said the jury must consider the conduct and intentions of the-defend ant. If they took the plaintiff's view of the case; they must find for such damages as they thought would suf ficiently punish the defendant ; but if they took the de fendant's view, a very small amount of damages would meet the demands of the case._ The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff--damages, 250/. SHERIFF'S CO (MT.-Amu, 26. ROUTLEDGE AND ANOTHER V. OURY. This action was brought by Messrs. Routledge, the booksellers, of London, against the defendant, who is an assistant to a bookseller at Norwich, for goods gold and delivered under the following extraordinary circum stances : It.appeared that in 1850 the defendant asked Mr. Warn, one of the plaintiffs, to -give him one of their catalogues, as he wanted it for a friend that was about starting in business in the country. He subsequently called with Mr. John Crook, and introduced him as his brother-in-law. An order was thereupon given and ordered to he sent to Oury and Co., of Norwich. For about five years the plaintiffs did business with the firm o f Oury and Co., and received cheques for the various accounts signed by John Crook. The defendant, how ever, managed the business, and he was the only person the plaintiffs knew by the name of Oury, and it w'as to him that credit was given according to the plaintiffs' statement. an p a p..y sa , i t s h ta ; n in t otoneCyrdotiok: h a u n t d n t o h t a , t th t e he co l s a t t s te o r f w th a i s s For the defendant i t wa s contended that Charles Oary was only parete M ip: r l3l . l Ced; AVM ' Called, and he stated that 15 years ago he n.ttoksiiscther: an d wl who she .was was a singing and dancingmarr e d the d , ernNrw mistress well known in the musical world by that Dame , He started - the e APPOINTMENTS.
