LOANS. at the house of the rev, defendant, who had offered the " happy pair " a bed for the night. At this en tertainment the father and mother of the prosecutor were present. It unfortunately chanced, however, that the rev. gentleman having been too indulgent in the pod things, became ill, whereupon he had walked off to bed, and, as ill luck would have it, took his re pose in that room which had been appropriated the bridal couple. The prosecutor, On making the dis covery, waxed wrathful, and called his brother to assist in dislodging his host. His wife was in another room. She had been the nursery governess in the family, and he had entertained some suspicion that all was not right between the rev, gentleman and the young lady. After some further evidence, • Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury for the defendant, when charged with assaulting William White and Su sannah, his wife, in the following manner : The complainant, who is a peculiarly sedate, prosy looking individual, commenced, in a hollow sepulchral tone—" In the dead of the night there came a noise at our door, in No. 1, Denzill-street, Long Acre. My wife Susannah and me turned ourselves round, as we lay on our straw, and a voice came to the door, and ses, Now you —, I'll have your heart—l'm sober and I'll have your heart.' Then there came the pressure of the hand against our door, the foot and the body followed, and at length the frail timber yielded to the profane pressure of those publicans and sinners, and Mr. M'Carthy and that fine gentleman made their way in amongst us, and they beat me and they beat my wife as long as they could stand over us. Amen !" Mr. TWYFORD—WeII, now you've told me a very long tale, but you havn't told me the reason for this. It appears at present to be a very outrageous pro ceeding. Complainant—They live in the same house as I do, and the only reason is, that 1, being destitute for want of employment, could not pay my rent. My goods were seized, and the rule being, one down, another a-top of him," they want to get rid of me. Amen ! she had seen the latter person produce two Bank of. England notes for 500/. each, at her lodging, No. 2, llercules-buildings, subsequently to the robbery at Preston. Mr. TRAIL—Is the woman who gave you that in formation present ? Stowell replied that she was not ; and upon being asked the question who the person was who had given him the information about the notes, after some hesitation he said that it was a Mrs. Grant, the landlady of the house in which Bailey lodged. He added, that when he went to No. '2, Hercules-build • ings, on the preceding (Sunday) morning, while he was there two gentlemen called whom he knew to be per sons who bought stolen notes, and he mentioned the fact to the landlord, who said, " Yes, they are ; and they know you, and won't do business to-day.” Mr. TaArt.--Why didn't you bring forward the woman who gave you the information relating to having seen the two 5001. notes in Bailey's possession ? Stowell—l shall be enabled to produce her on a fu ture day if the prisoners are remanded. Mr. - Robinson said that Stowell had sufficient time to have brought forward so important a witness in the case, and that she was to be found in Hercules-build ings, by his account, which was but a short distance from this Court. He then asked Stowell whether he had not seen Jovell every day, in town, for some weeks past ? Stowell admitted that he had, before and after the robbery atPreston, and that all he had to urge against him was the conversation he overheard in the tap *41'66 ttphiiit 'and . Castle ? Mr. TRAIL inquired whether the gentleman who was robbed of so large a sum of money was in town, and whether he was informed that the prisoners were in custody ? Stowell replied that he did not know who the gen tleman was, but that he was given to understand that he had arrived in London to give the necessary notice at the Bank to stop payment of the stolen notes, as well as to identify the parties by whom he suspected lie had been robbed, as it was known they were in town. He added that he was convinced Mrs. Grant would not come forward until she was compelled to give her evidence. Mr. TRAIL immediately granted a summons, and late in the afternoon the witness attended, when the examination was resumed. Mr. Marquis described the circumstances under which he was robbed, and said that it was on Monday last, at eight o'clock in the evening, in the town o Preston. That in walking along he was joined by a man and woman, strangers to him, and that they en tered into conversation. They had not proceeded more than 100 yards when he (complainant) stopped. upon which the man and woman ran away, and, on feeling his breast pocket, lie discovered that his pocket-book, containing 1,9901., together with sundry memorandums, was stolen. Ile immediately pursued the parties, but they escaped, and he then gave infor mation of the robbery at the next station-house. He subsequently proceeded t o a p l aee ca ll e d W oo d s i de, near Liverpool, and ascertained at a public-house that a man and woman had been there a short time pre viously, and had refreshment in the house ' • that while there they wen t i n t o t h e water-closet, and, their con duct exciting suspicion, when they went away two Bank of England notes were found, one for 100/., and the other for 101., which they dropped on the floor. That both the notes formed part of those of which he had been robbed ; and as he was informed the sus pected parties had gone in the direction of Chester, he followed, but lost all trace of them at that place, The complainant was here asked if he could iden tify the prisoners as the persons whom he suspected of robbing him ?—He replied that the female pri soner resembled the woman, but that he could not speak with any degree of certainty as to either of them ; he, however, thought the male prisoner was not the man. Jovell said that he could prove he was at Barnet fair last Monday, and Stowell knew it. Stowell stated that when he accompanied the female prisoner to the station-house, she said that she weula give him one of the 5001. notes if he would not press the charge against her. Bailey, however, denied that any such offer was made by her, but that Stowell said to her that he knew she was in the Preston robbery, and that if she did not make it right with him he would blow the gaff on her. In reply to Mr. TRAIL, the complainant said that he was perfectly sober when he was accosted by the man and woman ; that in walking along his coat blew open, and that gave them an opportunity of robbing him.

The CHAIRMAN, at great length, -jaummed up the case, and directed the attention of the Jury to some discrepancies in the evidence of the prosecutor, and that which had been given by the other witnesses. They had heard th e way in which the prosecutor, whose duty, let it be borne in mi n d, it was t o make out and substantiate hi s case, had given his testimony. It wou!d be for them to say whether he had done so to their satisfaction. If he had, they would find a verdict in his favour; but if he had failed therein, then it would be their dut y to lean to the side of mercy,rhe Juryand etreturnretired, v a e n r d d , i ctof ac uittal. r_ after q absence of upwards of three hours, returned with ix "ii i iiii,44N ot G u il ty. John Sullivan, labourer, was Indicted with stealing 18 cheeses, the property of Messrs. Swan and Sons, of Cambridge. It appeared from the evidence of 'William Harker, the guard of the Cambridge waggon, that he saw the prisoner and two other men following the waggon about two o'clock on the morning of the 28th ult., in the Whitechapel-road, and that shortly afterwards he missed the box containing the cheeses from the rack of the waggon, and the prisoner and the other men were also gone. The prisoner was afterwards stopped by a policeman in A.lontague-street, 'white chapel road, in company with two other men, one of whom had the box of cheeses on his shoulder, but who decamped immediately upon seeing the policeman. Several witnesses, amongst whom was one of the jury, gave the prisoner a good charact er . the Jury found the prisoner guilty, but strongly recommended him to mercy, and the Court sen t ence d him to two months' imprisonment in th e H ouse o f Correction, two weeks of the time to be passed in so litary confinement. Two or three other oases of trivial importance were disposed of, and the Court concluded its labours about four o'clock: CHIPS FOR NEW ZEALAND; under Charter 10 to the NEW ZEALAND COMPANY, to sail as un dermentioned, viz.:— FOR NELSON AND 'WELLINGTON.

Susannah White complained of the female prisoner and the baby, that they urged the other prisoners to violence. w.bo ,sited As spokeswoman to the party, said, that ever since the comiilanaiitiianeen in the house, there had been nothing but 'one continued turmoil in the neighbourhood. Their house, which was once a little paradise, was now a complete hell. Their once happy home had been rendered desolate. The front kitchen had become an invalid from the complainant's violent conduct ; the first-floor back was far advanced in pregnancy, and a miscar riage was likely to ensue ; and the second floor front had been in fits ever since Friday last. The complainants had taken the trouble to fetch in a number of great large paving stones which they kept continually rolling about the floor to annoy their fellow-lodgers. Several witnesses gave the complainants a bad character, and, under these circumstances, Mr. TWYFORD fined the prisoners only ss. each, or five days' imprisonment, with a special exemption in favour of the baby, who was discharged. MARYLEBONE. Margaret Coveney, a well-dressed girl, about 12 rears of age, was placed at the bar, charged with having stolen a gold seal and other articles, the pro perty of her master, Mr. Wm. Crouch, 34, Church row, St. Pancras. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner had been in the service of the prosecutor a few days, and had been discharged on Sunday evening. It was soon afterwards ascertained by Mr. Crouch that two seals, One of them gold, with a brooch, a gauze handker chief, and other articles, had been stolen from the pre mises Information•was given to the police, and a portion of the property was found in her possession. The property was produced and identified by Mrs. Crouch, and the prisoner, who had nothing to say, was committed for trial.

Good Stabling. IN RE WILLIAM LIONEL FELIX TOLLEMACITE, COM MONLY CALLED LORD HUNTINGTOWER. This day being appointed for the choice of assignees, under the fiat against Lord Huntingtower, who had been lately placed under a decree of outlawry, and who, to bring him within the operation of the Bank ruptcy-law, was described in the fiat as a horse-dealer, Mr. Ntas, the solicitor, stated that he appeared on behalf of a large body of the bankrupt's creditors. He was aware that objections would be taken to some of the claims being admitted, partly on the ground of the bankrupt being under age at the time the goods were supplied ; but he thought he should be able to show that the greater part of them were for absolute necessaries, and for such articles as the bankrupt's po sition as a nobleman entitled him to purchase. The first creditor seeking to prove was Mr. Wilkin son, a saddler and harness-maker, for saddles, bridles, harness, and armorial bearings, supplied from the year 1839 to the amount of 1741. • • No Commissioner being employed on board the packets, travellers will find prices tho more moderate.

Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE being informed that the greater portion of the goods were supplied during the bankrupt's minority, said he most certainly would not admit the proof now. A number of bills of exchange, purporting to bear his L.wdship's signature, were put in, when the creditor was examined at great length with respect to the date and validity of their execution, and as to whether they were drawn before the death of the late Dowager Lady Huntingtower. He stated her Ladyship, to the best of his recollection, had died in the year 1840, about November or December, and that the greater part of the bills were executed previous to her death, and, consequently, when the bankrupt was in his minority. Of some of the documents produced he had no recollection. Mr. Commissioner FONDLANQUE-All those claims upon bills of exchange must stand over until assignees are appointed. Mr. NIAS then called an immense number of credi tors, all of whom sought to prove upon trade dealings, and one only upon a judgment debt. The claimants were mostly drapers, coachmakers, livery stable keepers, and tavern-keepers. Their debts ranged from about 201. to 300/. each.

The prisoner it appeared had always borne a good character, and had for some years past resided at Mitcham, where he had been employed as a gardener. Mr. Harland, the prosecutor, in his evidence, said that he had ordered the prisoner to gather some pears at about eleven o'clock in the day, and that shortly after, meeting the prisoner with a basket, he asked him what he had there, to which the prisoner replied )nly pears, and admitted at once that they were Mr. Harland's.

Yesterday a person named Strahan, rejoicing in a long beard, complained to Mr. Maltby of having been assaulted in liyde-park that morning, by a person named Tilke. The complainant said there was a swimming match in the Serpentine that morning, which he at tended, as one of the parties interested in the success of the " noble art." After the match was over, the de fendant came up to him, seized him roughly, gave him a lusty shaking, and applied some hard names to him. Mr. MALTBY asked the complainant if he knew the cause of this attack ? The complainant said it arose (nit of these circumstances few days ago there was a swimming match between the Champions of London and Oxford, in which the latter was victorious. He undertook to get up a benefit at the Westminster swimming baths for the two heroes, and accordingly made arrangements with the defendant, who was manager at the baths, for the benefit to come off at a particular time. The defendant, however, contrived to disappoint the public, and the circumstance was made known through the medium of the Press. The defendant had his ire excited by the remarks which appeared, and this led him to assault complainant, to whom he incorrectly attributed the article in the papers. In explanation, the defendant said that the benefit in question was postponed on account of the thin at tendance occasioned by the unfavourablenes.s of the weather. He had certainly advised this stop, believing that it was for the benefit of all parties. His surprise was, therefore, very great, to hear from numerous friends that letters had appeared in the Sunday Times, the Era, and Bell's Life in London, insinuating that he had caused the match to be put off to serve his 01V11 purposes, he having a benefit himself to come off in a few days. Having ascertained that ➢lr. Strahan was the author of the letters, he certainly did apply the term scoundrel, or something equally explicit, to that individual when he met him that morning in Hyde Park. He did not, however, commit the violent assault which the complainant asserted he had sustained. Complainant—l beg leave to remark, in a paren thesis, that I did not write the letter. I only told the circumstances to some friends, and they made use of the information I gave. The defendant handed a newspaper to Mr. Maltby, containing the paragraph objected to, Mr. AfALTBY, after reading it, said it was quite evident the object of the paragraph was to insinuate that the benefit had turned out a failure through the. interested motives on the part of the defendant, Complainant—Allow me to remark in a parenthesis, that all I said was that Mr. Tilke " burked" the benefit. Witnesses were called who gave a history of the rise, progress, and failure of the benefit, Mr. MALTBY, after giving the matter a very full investigation, said he was of opinion that the defend ant had acted for the hest, tbough '..he had, perhaps, not taken the course most agteeable to all parties. Complainant—May I not make ono remark in pa renthesis ? Mr. MALTBY—No ; I want to hear nothing more. The Magistrate then said, as the defendant had given way to his feelings so far as to commit a breach of the peace, he should fine him lOs. Defendant—And am I allowed to thrash the com plainant if I pay the fine ? Mr. MALTBY recommended all parties to keep the peace, and the fine was then paid. UNION-HALL. Yesterday Elizabeth Bailey, a well-dressed wo man, was brought before Mr. Trail, charged on sus picion with, robbing Mr. John Marquis, of Accring ton, of a pocket book, containing Bank of England notes to the amount of 1,9904 at Preston, in Lan cashire; and a man named Benjamin Jovell was charged as an accessory after the fact. Mr. Robinson appeared for the prisoners. The Hue and Cry, giving an account of the rob bery and a description of the suspected persons, being handed to the Magistrate, he r ea d it , and then in quired what evidence there was against them. Th o mas Stowell, a man well known as a common informer, here stepped forward, and said that from information he had received he had strong grounds for suspecting the female prisoner was the person who robbed the gentleman on a recent occasion, at Preston, of a large sum of money, and that the other prisoner was concerned in the offence. Mr. Robinson—Then you have given the prisoners into custody all on hearsay evidence. Is that all you have to say 1 ? I trust the Magistrate won't even de cide on a remand without some tangible evidence against the accused parties. Mr. TRAM remarked that of course he should re quire Stowell to state what grounds he had for sus pecting the prisoners, and whether they were of such a nature as to justify a remand if it was deemed ne cessary. The Magistrate then asked Stowell whether he was at Preston at the time of the alleged robbery ? Stowell, in reply, said that he was not, and added that he had collected his information in town. Mr. TRAIL then desired him to state his suspicions against the accused parties, Upon which Stowell said that on Saturday he was at the Elephant and Castle tap ; that the man Jovell was present, and that he heard him say to a person with whom he was conversing, that his old girl, mean ing the other prisoner, was in for a good thing at Preston, and that she gat the gentleman's money. I heard a great deal more, and if the prisoners are re manded I shall be enabled, I have every reason to be lieve, to substantiat e th e c h a r g e aga i ns t th em . Mr. Robinson—Oh, you heard Jovell mention fhe circumstance you say in the tap-room of a public house openly ; were there any other ',sons besides yourself heard what passed on the occasion ? Stowell —I only know what I heard myself. Mr. pRAIL desired Stowell to state all that he. knew and had heard of the robbery, besides what he previously related, Stowell then said that he was informed by a woman who was well acquainted with Elizabeth Bailey that The woman Bailey was here desired to take off her bonnet, in order that the complainant might have a better view of her face. She did so, and turned her side face towards him ; upon which Mr. TRAIL re marked that she turned that side of her head in which there was no earring. She was then asked why An did so. She replied that she had no particular reason. Upon which Mr. TRAIL said that the earring, which it was obvious she wished to conceal, answered the description of those worn by the female who was con cerned in committing the robbery. Susan Grant stated she was landlady of the house, No. 2, Hercules -buildings, and that on Thursday last the female prisoner and a man engaged lodgings, and that they were perfect strangers to her until that oc casion. Mr. TRAIL asked the witness if she told Stowell that she saw two 5001. notes in the woman Bailey's possession ?—The witness declared that no such words were uttered by h?r. Stowell, however, persisted in the truth of his state ment, and minutely related the circumstanoes under which the fact was mentioned to him. That when he went to the witness's house on Saturday night the two prisoners came home in a cab together, but that he had since discovered that Jovell was not the man who was concerned in the robbery, that person being out of the way at present ; and the witness further told him that she sewed the two 5001. notes up in a leathern belt for the man who accompanied her to the house, and whom he (Stowell) knew. Mr. Robinson said that he trusted the unsupported evidence of Stowell would not be taken, and that his motive for coming forward was a supposition that the accused persons were concerned in the robbery • and that as they denied it, an d a t th e same time told' him that they had none of the money, he thought proper to give them into custody. Stowell said that it was no such thing, and that he only did it to bring the guilty parties to justice. Mr. TRAIL said that he should remand Bailey until Friday, and that he should make the other prisoner enter into reeognisances of 5001. for his appearance on that day, Jane Evans was charged on suspicion with stealing a gold watch and seven sovereigns, the property of Mrs. Mary Janes, carrying on the linen drapery business in the Waterloo-road. The complainant stated that the prisoner, who is 13 years of a ge , was in her service, and had access to all the rooms in the house. That she (com plainant) had a gold watch, seven sovereigns, and various articles of plate locked up in a drawer in her bed-room, and that she missed the watch and money on the preceding morning. The prisoner, being suspected, was questioned, but she denied having been concerned in the robbery ; and when asked who the boy was who had been observed lurking about the house, and with whom she had been previously seen, she also denied that she knew anything about him. She was then threatened with being given into custody if she did not tell the boy's name, upon whioh she exclaimed, " then I shall take the poison you bought for the rats." She then ran down into the kitchen, and before complainant had time to pre vent it, she swallowed a quantity of arsenic, which was subsequently extracted by means o f th e stomach pump.—The prisoner adh ere d t o th e asser tion of her innocence, and was remanded. — -- -- placed to 3 nativeir.

Other witnesses gave similar testimo ny. Mr. Alderman HoorEa sa id he had received a letter describing the prisoner, sta ting that h e h a d b een several times charged with a similar offence, and he should therefore commit him f 0 three months. The prisoner, who had been up to thi s time very quiet and well-behaved in the dock, When he heard the decision of the Magistrate , attempted to make a resistance, but was overpowered , and taken back.

Mr BROUGHTON said that he considered a clear case of felony had been made out against the prisoner, and he should commit him upon it.

Ai 1 time Mr. Garforth received the wounds, he was helping one of the turn-outs to find his coat, and was at _the same time mildly reasoning with a knot of them on the impropriety of their conduct. Whilst thus engaged, and separated from the military and special constables, Mr. Garforth was savagely attacked by a ruffian, who first threw a stone which hit his forehead and inflicted a deep gash, and next struck him across the face with a heavy bludgeon. Mr. Garfbrth's face was shockingly disfigured and wounded ; and though he was able, with help, to walk off the field, yet he fainted before he could reach his own home in a carriage. The serious injurx received by Mr. Garforth is universally lamented, as i4ta had been long distinguished for his benevolent treatment of the working classes in his neighbourhood, as well as for his activity and judgment as a Magistrate.—L an . caster Guardian.

The variety and originality of its numerous characters, and the perpetual movement of incident and action, entitle this work to rank with the best of Captain Marryat's productions. The proud but gallant Capt. Delmar—the half-savage, half heroic negro pirate, Vincent—the true heart of oak, British tar, Bob Cross—the unlucky Tommy Dott—and, above all, the clever scapegrace who is the hero of the story—are drawn with consummate skill ; and the night adventure with Peggy Pear son in the gale of wind; the chase and fight with the two French ve , sels ; the blowing-up of the pirate's schooner ; the duel by proxy, and other stirring incidents in Percival Keene's career, are executed with a force and spirit that Captain Mar ry at himself has never exceeded."—Globe.

Annual Division of Profits. F. FERGUSON CAMROUX, Secretary. IN RE W. G. SMITH. The insolvent had been a carrier in Bond-stmet. He applied to be liberated until the day for hearing. It appeared that he had assigned his property to a horse-dealer named Panton, for money and goods re ceived, but this very property had been subsequently sold by the insolvent, as Panton, by the terms of the assignment, was precluded from entering until De cember. His daughter also claimed a lien upon all his household furniture. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said this was too gross a case to give the insolvent the benefit of bail, and he should therefore send him back to prison. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr.lVALEsuy, Chairman, and a full Bench of Magistrates.) The Rev. Thomas Boddington and Matilda Tippetts were indicted, charged with having assaulted Frede rick Penn Tippetts, the husband of the latter. Mr. Clarkson conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Payne appeared for the defendants. Mr. CLARKSON having stated the case, called The prosecutor, who said that he had first become acquainted with the rev. defendant about two years since. Their acquaintance had commenced at the Crown coffee-shop. The female defendant had at that period lived as nursery-governess in the family of the rev. gentleman. About the month of April Mr. Boddington had offered to procure him such en gagements in Sydney as should realise a pecuniary remuneration of 3/. per week. The defendant than suggested to him the propriety of his marrying ere he set out, and eventually introduced him to the female defendant, as a suitable match for him. Ultimately they were married, last May. Finding, however, that the rev. gentleman did not carry his promise, of sending him over to Sydney, into effect in six weeks time, he went into the country in search of employ ment, having previously taken a place for his wife at 14, White Conduit-grove. In the meantime it so happened that the rev. defendant had re moved to York-street, City-road. After an absence of a month he returned from the country, and on going to White Conduit-grove, he discovered that his wife had left, but whither he for some time was un able to learn. In consequence, however,., of the in formation he received at that house, he • Was induced to watch the rev. defendant, and followed him to No. 3, Spencer-place. On the 25th of the last month he accordingly went to the house, and upon knocking, was admitted by his wife, who told him to wait in the passage. She appeared to be very cross, where upon he affectionately patted her on the head, on which she seized hold of a pair of bellows, and struck him violently across the shoulders, exclaiming that she would soon get some one who would settle him. At this moment the rev. defendant entered the house, and immediately struck him with his clenched fist on the chest, his wife crying out, " Here is the villain !" an exclamation she instantly followed up by striking him and pulling his hair. The rev. defendant then took up the poker, and was in the act of striking him over the head, when a man of the name of Dawes rushed into the room and wrested it from his hands, his wife crying out " Murder." He then ran away, and on the 27th he obtained the warrant for the assault. Cross -examined—Prior to the commencement of his acquaintance with the male defendant he had been engaged in the linendrapery and butchering trades. It was not until after he was introduced to his present wife by the male defendant, that he had held any communication with her. When he went into the country to seek employment, he had left his wife without any means of support. When he went to Spencer-place, he told her she was no better than she ought to be, but that was after his wife had desired him to wait in the passage. After the rev. defendant had come in he struck him on the face, and made his nose bleed. He also struck his wile, and called her names. Re-examined—On the night of his marriage he had found the rev. defendant in the bed in which h o and his wife were to have slept, anti was obliged to obtain the assistance of his brother to pull the de fendant out. _ This matter was subsequently explained by the an swers to questions put to the witness by the counsel for the defendant and several members of the bench, whgu it appeared that the wedding festival was held
