The defendant was at the head of the firm of Farehrol her, Brenner, and Company, who carried on business at the oil, wax,'and sperm works at Stockwell, The plaintiff's father had a large family, but he had [to the utmost means afforded them a good education, and it would appear that the plaintiff herself had been edu cated in a manner that would fit her for any kind of society. The intimacy between the plaintiff and de fendant had commenced in 1849, whsa Miss Crippin was only about 15 years of age, and from that time down to 1852 she had continued at school. In that year the de fendant, being then about 26 years of age, and therefore old enough to know his own mind, had an interview with the plaintiff's father, and told him he was desirous of paying his attentions to his daughter. From that time he was received as the accepted suitor and future hus band of Miss Grip*. After that the plaintiff returned to school, and remained there until Dec., 1852, when she finally left, she being then 17 years of age. She was introduced to Mr. Alderman Farebrother, who soon afterwards bad an interview with Mr. Crippin, and expressed himself perfectly satisfied with the young lady, and ever afterwards treated her as one of his own family. The defendant at this time was engaged in a large mer cantile house in Bishopsgate-street, but he subsequently was set up by his father in the oil, wax, and sperm busi ness. That happened in Feb., 1856, and soon afterwards the defendant broke off the intimacy, but he never had to the present time assigned any reason for so doing. All the defendant's letters had been returned to him at his own request, except about twenty, which had been accidentally kept. He should refer to passages in one or ten t of those, but would not read the whole of them, to gratify an idle curiosity, or to excite a laugh at the expense of Mr. Farebrother. The first be would refer to was dated the 13th March, 1855, and it began—"Mv own darling—most dearly awl. truly best beloved Suey," and said, " I was indeed pleased to read the contents of our brother's letter last evening, and still more delighted to show you that something was on the tapis to make you completely happy ;" and it finished in this way : " I must now conclude with my most affectionate and never ceasing love, and believe me your most affectionate and sincerely attached and loving, Frank." On the 11th of May, 1855, he said—" My most precious and always dearest Suey—l hope, my own darling pet, that the time is not now far distant when, joined together by de holy bonds of matrimony, we shall live happily and comfort ably together till death do us part, according to God's holyiwill and ordinance. You shall hear from me every day, you little darling ; and I will always send you as long a letter as I can, my own dear darling." On the 29th June, 1855, he said—" I am glad to hear that there is a chance of you remaining at home until you leave for good. I am highly delighted that I am to have you close to me for another six months. My own darling little Suey, you do not wish to see me more than I do to see you. We certainly were made for each other ; and God, in his infinite mercy, has heard our wishes, and I only long for the day when I can call you my own dear little wife." The learned counsel then laid the following evi dence before the jury : Mr. Geo. Hansel' Crippin said—l am the father of the plaintiff. I have six children. The plaintiff is 21 years old. I now reside at Croydon. The defendant is the son of Al derman Farebrother, and is about 30. years of age. I first became acquainted at the latter end of 1849. My family and the alderman's attended the same chapel of ease. The commencement of the acquaintance was that my son re ceived a note from the defendant. He snon after visited at my house. He saw the plaintiff in 1849, and she was then 15 or 16. In 1852 the defendant made a commu nication to tee about my daughter. lie asked leave to Pay his attentions to my daughter. I said I had per sonally no objection. I asked him his position, and he said his father would start him in business. He con atantly visited at my house after that, and was acknow ledged as her suitor. I had not known the alderman before except by sight. In 1352, about Christmas, I received a message from Mr. Alderman Farebrother, and had an interview with him. He told me that his son had mentioned that be had asked my permission to pay his respects to my daughter. He said that he was not a fortune-hunter, and that he would establish his son in business. After that- my daughter constantly visited at the alderman's until three weeks before the 7th May last, when the match was broken off. On the 7th May last I returned home at five or six o'clock. The plaintiff, her mother, and her s i ster were at home. They were in a very excited state ind ee d . The plaintiff was quite over powered with excitement. She did not cry scarcely at a ll. She was in a very low state, and has continued so till the present time. The defendant has never assigned any reason for breaking off the marriage. Cross-examined—The alderman told me he had a large and expensive family. I believe he has nine children. I believe the defendant's conduct was always affection . - ate down to May last. Re-examined—l wrote to the alderman, and received no letter either from him or the defendant. Mr. James L. Crippin—l am the plaintiff's brother, and knew the defendant. Mr. Sergeant Shee said he understood that thi s gentle man was only called to prove the p ro mise of m arr i age, and that there was no dispute about. Witness continued—The defendant was at the head of the sperm works at Stockwell. Mr. Geo. Thos. Crippin—l am another brother of the plaintiff. I remember the defendant's visits at our house being discontinued. He ceased altogether to come about three weeks before the 7th May last. My sister seemed very much worried about it. I was at home on the 7th May, My sister had received a letter from the defend. ant that morning, and was very much depressed. She bad not left her bedroom since. The letter came whilst we were at breakfast, and about mid-day a carman of Messrs. Farebrother, Bremner, and Co. came with a cart containing the presents my s i s ter had to the defendant. My youngest sister came up and said, " It's all up with Susan and F ran k." I went down, and the carman pro duced a list from his pocket, in the defendant's own hand writing, of presents to my sister from the defendant. Re said be was not to leave the presents be had with him unless he received the presents made by the defend ant in return. When I saw that the defendant had be haved-iti'such a manner, that he had sent an open list of the presents, I said, "By all means do not return the presents." But my mother said, i‘ Let them go ; let them ge out of her sight." I gave them to him. He then brou g ht i n a bundle, saying he was not to deliver them unless he had Mr. Farebrother's in return, I went up stairs, and the letters were all lying on my sister's bed. There was a very large packet of them, and I gave them to the carman. My sister was in such a state that I did not consult h er at all. When I went up stairs my sister was lying on her face on the bed sobbing. For weeks afterwards she was very depressed in spirits—very low—and she has not regained her usual spirits to this day. Cross-examined—The carman had been several times before with messages from Mr. Farebrother. Mr. Carpenter—l am a surgeon. I attended the plain tiff in May last. She was in a state of considerable ner vous depression. She had been Robbing much, and I scarcely got any answers from her. I saw that it was mental causes, and I ordered that she should be kept quiet, and that the matter should not be mentioned. I afterwards ordered her to be sent into the country. When she Came back she was b o dily ill. She is now a different girl from what she used to be before the 7th of , May—different in health and spirits.

The special commission for a winter assize was opened here by Justice Coleridge on Saturday last, and the court was opened on Monday for the trial of prisoners, of which there were about fifty, several of whom were for burglary and assaults upon the person ; a serious case of this description was tried this day. aeorye Cribb, 19, a convict in the Portsmouth Dock yard, was indicted for feloniously striking on the head Alfred Ad ams, an officer of that estabiishment, with in tent to kill an d murder him, on the 28th of July last. tio M n and Mr. Russell conducted the prosecu- Mr. Giffard said he wished to-day to proceed with the common law part of the offence, which was one of misdemeanour. He should proceed with similar cases to those already proved, and in doing so he should lay before his Worship the mod= operandi pursued by the prisoner in carrying out his schemes. The learned eounsel then went into a detailed account of the mode of transacting business in the transfer department of the railway, and also in the registration depaitment, and the device pursued by Redpathto prevent discovery would disclose a mode of proceeding that entirely dis armed suspicion. There were four other cases of forgery against the prisoner, and such being the case it would not be possible to finish the investigation to-day. He should conclude the cases brought forward on a previous occasion before opening any new ones. Mr. R.

Mowatt, secretary of the Great Northern Railway Company, said I signed the dividend warrant produced. My signature was necessary before the money could be drawn from the bankers. Mr. R. P. Laurie, cashier in the Unien Bank, Lon don—ln March, 1854, I was cashier at the Regent-street branch. On the 18th March, 1854, a dividend warrant for 221. ss. 9d., signed by Leopold Redpatb, was paid in, and i i due course placed to Redpath's credit. Mr. Giffard said that was all the evidence he had to offer on that branch of the case to-day. He did not think there would be time to-day to go into any fresh charge?. Under these circumstances he should ask for a further remand. The evidence of the different witnesses was then read over by the chief clerk, and they were severally bound over to appear against the prisoner at the Central Crimi nal Court, on a charge of misdemeanour. The prisoners were then remanded until Friday next at two o'clock.
