Mr. Mellor and Mr. Macaulay appeared as counsel for the plaintiff; and Mr. Hayes for the defendant. ' Mr. MELLOR stated the case.—The plaintiff was a young woman in an humble station of life, who sued in forma pan penis, who had become acquainted with the defendant, a hair dresser, whilst apprenticed to a milliner, at Tainworth, and the result was the birth of a child. The defendant had pro mised marriage to the plaintiff on several occasions, and after the birth of the child he promised to go over to the christen ing, and in a letter read by the Learned Counsel, he styled himself her " affectionate husband," and "hoped the child would be a dutiful son." Alas, for his promises! in three short days he wrote a letter, stating that his father would not let him come to the christening, and that, - accordingly, he must break his promise to do so, as well as his premise of marriage, and proposed to allow 6s. per month for the child instead. _ _ TEIE GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY'S splendid and powerful first-class STEAM SHIPS are appointed to leave LONDON for— HAMBUltGliand ROTTERDAM, carrying her Majesty's Mails —Every Wednesday and Saturday Morning.

The Lives of Fishermen and Boatmen also insured. High rates of premium have hitherto operated against this kind of Assurance, but as the scale now adopted will be found as low as is consonant with the risk, it is believed that this fact, coupled with other advantaaes, will induce a great increase of insurers.

Mr. CummiNG having seconded the resolution, it was carried unanimously.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT—Liverpool, April 1. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Baron ROLFE.) THE BURY WATER-WORKS COMPANY V. BENSON. This case was resumed at the opening of the Court to-day, by Mr. Martin examining a considerable body of engineering and scientific evidence on the part of the defendant, the ge neral effect of which was, that the measurements charged in the bill of - Chadwick, which had been certified by the de fendant, were strictly correct in all respects. The accuracy of the measurements, indeed, was the only subject of differ ence between the parties, the plaintiffs contending 'that by the defendant's negligence in measuring they had been charged with and paid for 3,857 cubic yards of embankment, and 350 superficial yards of pitching, more than they ought to have been. Mr. IVortley's reply for the plaintiffs was merely a lengthened 'comment upon the testimony for the defendant, in which he endeavoured to show that their cal culations were•framed upon an erroneous basis, whilst those for the plaintiffs were taken from those furnished by the de fendant himself. _ _ The JUDGE, in summing up the case, told the jury that the only question for them to consider was, whether it was satis factorily made out that the defendant had, as alleged, ne glected his duty by not properly measuring the work of Chadwick. In the course of going over the evidence the Learned Judge remarked that neither of the parties in this cause had shown themselves really desirous of having the difference between them properly sifted in the presence of each other. • Who was to blame he would not say; but it would have been much better for the interests of both if a disposition of this sort had been exhibited. The charge of the Learned Judge concluded exactly at three o'clock, having lasted nearly two hours ; and the jury without retiring from the box, returned a verdict for the de fendant. The trial, in the whole, occupied eighteen hours. Early in May will be published, in One thick Volume, Bvo., with nearly 1,000 Woodcuts, uniform with Messrs.

This was an action, brought by Amelia Squires, of Preston, against the defendant; James Molyneux, a silk manufacturer in the same town, to recover damages for the seduction of Mary Braithwaite, her daughter. Mr. Seger ap peared for the plaintiff. The 'action was undefended. Mr. SEGAR, in stating the case, said the plaintiff was Amelia Squires ; the defendant was James Molyneux -, and the declaration 'complained that the defendant had seduced the plaintiff's daughter, Mary Braithwaite, whereby she had been deprived of her services. The defendant pleaded guilty—a plea not very usual in cases of this nature. The facts were very brief, and would be clearly proved. The plaintiff was a widow, who had had two husbands ; she bore a large family to her first husband, the subject of the pre sent action being one of the children, and residing with her. The defendant was a partner in the firm of Brierly, Barton, and Co., silk manufacturers ; and at the time of the seduc tion the plaintiff's daughter worked in defendant's factory. The defendant was at that time a married man, but he pre tended to the young woman that he was single, and, more over, that it was his intention to ma rr y h er . She did not know that he was married till he had effected her seduction, and she discovered it at the late Preston Guild, when she was walking out with him, and they met his wife. A scene took place on the intercourse being thus discovered. The case was therefore of an aggravated character, with no circumstances of palliation except that of there being no great disparity in the ages of the parties. The Learned Counsel then read two letters, addressed to the plaintiff's daughter by the defendant, in both of which he made violent protestations of affection for her, declaring that his heart was continually beating for her, as he hoped hers was for him, and it would relieve his mind greatly if She would he kind enough to write to him upon tho score of her real attachment. If she would but say she would be true to him, he should be easy in his mind—and a gi-eat deal to the like effect. The letters wee addressed to "My dear Mary." The unhappy girl appeared to have conducted herself with proper feeling through all the circumstances ; and it was out of the defendant's power to make her repa ration in any other way than by the verdict of a jury. The Learned Counsel then called Mary Braithwaite, the daughter of the plaintiff, who said her mother's name was Amelia Squires, and she lived at Preston. - In 1842, witness worked at the silk-mill of Messrs. Brierley, Barton, and Co., in which the defendant is a partner. Went there at Christmas, 1841, soon after which the defendant proposed to pay his addresses to her, but she refused on the ground that he was too high in his situation for her. Afterwards consented to receive his addresses, and had letters from him. Had a child, of which the defendant was the father. Did not know the defendant was a married man till. the last Preston Guild, when she met his wife as she was walking with him in Bow-lane. The child was born May 14, 1843.- . A witness was next called, who proved that the defendant was a married man. - The jury, after a few words from the Judge, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 401. SEDUCTION--8111T0 2),, CO RE, This was another action to recover compensation in da mages for the seduction of the plaintiff's daughter by the defendant. The action was undefended.

Mr. CARDWELL appeared for the plaintiff, and it appeared that all the parties reside at Mellor, near Blackburn, in this county. The two families had long been on terms of inti macy and friendship. The plaintiff had nine children, seven Of whom were married and settled in life ; his daughter, the stitiect of the present action, assisted in the management of his household affairs. The defendant, about seven.years ago, began to be received by that daughter upon the footing of an honourable suitor ; he even went so far as to name a day for the marriage, and caused preparations to be made for the celebration, by which means he prevailed over the virtue of the young woman. After this he still continued to make professions of honourable intentions, and the courtship went on. On the 16th of March, 1840, a child was born, of which the defendant was the father after which he again promised to marry the young woman, but, upon various excuses, he piet it off from time to time. After this he again encouraged her to name a day for the wedding; but, within a few months after, he married another female. The defendant had made payments upon account of the child to the parish authorities, to the amount of 275., thus adding insult to outrage. Isabel Smith, the subject of the action, was then sworn, and she gave testimony to the effect stated above. i The promise of marriage was also proved by a witness named Ward.

NORFOLK CIRCUIT.—Bury St. Edmund's, Aprill. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice PATITSON.) COLLINS V. FLNLAYSON. Mr. Andrews and Mr. Archer were counsel for the plain tiff, a young lady residing at Stowmarket, in this county, who brought this action to seek compensation at the hands of a jury from the defendant, for a breach of promise of marriage. The defendant was not defended by counsel or attorney. 'lt would appear from the letters and evidence adduced in the cause that the " contracting powers" formed an intimacy at a large tea and candle shop in the Borough, the lady being there upper housemaid, and the defendant one of numerous shopmen. Matters having been brought to a crisis, the defendant "popped" to the plaintiff, and she, "nothing loth," accepted his heart. At his suggestion she quitted her place, and retired to her "natyve"at Stowmarket, while her lover suited himself with a shop in London, where he intended to set up in the tea line. In a short time his name appeared over a handsome " front" in High Holborn, where, according to his account, he and four men were up to their eyes in tea, sugar, and coffee, from " morn to dewy eve," on week days, and on Saturday till nearly 12 o'clock. In his letters he at first was most warm and enthusiastic in his professions of love and fidelity, but he never came down with the ring, and at last his attachment grew cooler, while his business increased, till one day be quietly asked " how much it would cost to marry at Stowmarket?" Not long after this gross insult the faithless Lothario married a neigh bour's daughter, though he had, within one .short month, vowed that if he were offered the hand of the richest alder man's daughter he should spurn it as an insult, and prefer poverty at Stow to wealth in the Mansion-House. At the close of the plaintiff's case, Mr. Justice PArrEsoN left it to the jury to say what they would award to the plaintiff for the loss sustained through the defendant's breach of contract, and, after a moment's de liberation, they returned a verdict for 501.

George Harper, a labourer, and of very savage ap pearance, was charged with cutting and wounding a brick-maker, named Henry Garden, residing in Phea sant-place, Ball's-pond, Islington, so as to seriously en danger his life. A certificate was produced from a surgeon, setting forth that Garden was dangerously ill, and of course unable to attend in court. Harriette Garden; the wife of the wounded man, de posed as follows :—My husband works in Mr. Rhodes' brickfields, in the . Britannia-fields, Islington. Last - night, at half past eleven o'clock, he went out to look at some bricks and protect them from the frost. He came back at about half-past twelve, bleeding profusely from several wounds in the head. He lay down, and the next moment was insensible. One of his eyes is quite de stroyed, and his head is dreadfully bruised. I ran out for a policeman, who fetched a surgeon. When he dressed the wounds my husband became delirious, and continues 'so. Before the surgeon Came I asked him what had happened to hini, and he said he was sitting down on a heap of brick When the prisoner came up and exclaimed " A.h, I have an old grudge against you, and I'll pay you now ;" he then struck him with a brick, and he could recollect no more. When _he recovered his senses he fotind himselflying on the ground, bleeding fr . om the head. Mr. COMBE—Did your husband say he gave the pri soner any provocation ? Witness-1, asked him that - question, but he said he had not given him the least provocation. The poor woman, who seemed to be suf fering great agony of mind, said the surgeon had in formed her that he had no hopes of the recovery of her husband, and recommended his removal to the hospital. Police constable Treford, N 3, deposed that, on that morning, between twelve 'and one o'clock, Harriette Garden called upon him, and said her husband had been nearly murdered by Harper. He went. to her house, and there saw Garden lyinc , on the ground, he was still bleeding profusely, one side of his head was in a perfect mummy—his eye seemed to have been quite battered in. After fetching a surgeon he went to the prisoner's house and arrested him. Witness said to him that he appre hended him for the attack on Garden. "On Harry Garden, is it?" replied the prisoner. Witness said " Yes," and the prisoner said no more. - Mr. COMBE asked him if he had been to the brick field. Witness said he had, and saw a large pool of. blood beside a heap of bricks there ; he found a brick beside it partly broken and stained with blood. Mr. COMBE, after administering the usual magisterial caution to the prisoner, asked him what he had to say to the charge. Prisoner—l gave him a blow, bnt he struck me on the head (he pointed to his head on which there was the mark of a blow). • The policeman added that when he arrested the pri soner, he had blood upon him. Witness had learned on that morning that the man's life was in great danger, and that he was delirious. He was about being conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital. _ _ Mr. CONDE directed the officer to inform him if the wounded man recovered his consciousness so far as to be able to give evidence before five o'clock, that he might go to his residence, and have his evidence recorded. The officer promised compliance, and the prisoner was conveyed to the cells. IVORSHIP-STREET. A modest-looking, and rather pretty, young woman applied to Mr. Bingham, the sitting Magistrate, for advice and assistance, under the following circumstances: The applicant stated that, while living in service, about two years ago, she became acquainted with a young man, about 30 years of age, who paid his ad dresses to her, and they were married, after a short courtship, at Hoxton Church. They proceeded, after the ceremony, to Gravesend, and, on her return to town, on the same evening, her husband left h er , un d er the care of a friend, until he was able to provide a place for her reception ; but she had neither seen nor heard anything of him since that time. His father, who was a respectable tradesman at Hoxton, had informed her that he believed ' her husband had gone into the country in quest of employment, but he had no certain knowledge on the subject. Since her desertion she had filled a comfortable situation as a domestic servant, until a few days ago, when her mistress received an anonymous letter apprising her of the extraordinary circumstances connected with her marriage, and she dis charged her in consequence. As the same prejudice would no doubt operate against her elsewhere she wished to know what steps she could adopt to relieve herself from the difficult and embarrassing situation in which she was placed. _ _ Mr. BINGHAN said that it was certainly a very hard case, but he regretted that he had no power to assist her, and her only remedy was to sue out a divorce in the Ecclesiastical Court. MURDER FROM JEALOUSY.—A man named J. Ozenne, a house-painter, was tried last week at Rouen, on a charge of having assassinated the widow Decouville, who lived in the Rue au Lard, at Havre, during the year 1840. The great suspicion against the prisoner was that, although a married man (his wife being twenty years older that him self) he professed a most passionate regard for the widow ; and, as he lived in an adjoining house, was known to spend many of his hours in her company, and to have the means of admission to her apartment by a private key to a door which was closed to all except himself. His passion was under no control, and he had been heard to threaten that, should she extend her favoured smiles to any one else he would kill ker. The body of this unhappy woman was found one afternoon, in the year 1840, iu a wretched state of mutila-. tion in her own kitchen ; the head was placed against frwall, and the feet on the hearth stone—between the legs. was found a candle which had been burnt out—the clothes of deceased were destroyed by fire,.and the legs and thighs had been charred to a great extent, Appearances led to the sup position that the deceased had been strangled, andathe body afterwards set on fire ; but, as no robbery had been com mitted, for even near to the dead body were found Silver spoons and other things of value, an inference was drawn that the murder had been caused by jealousy. Now it was notoriously known that Ozenne was jealous of the deceased almost to madness, and he was apprehended and examined ; but proofs sufficient to warrant his committal for trial were wanting, until an individual who was in prison for debt wrote a letter to some official party implicating him in the murder; and the facts therein stated having been inquired into, Ozenne was put upon his trial. There were several witnesses called, who deposed to circumstances which left no doubt of the guilt of the prisoner, and on Saturday, after two days' hearing, he was convicted, and sentenced to imprison ment with hard labour for life. GENERAL TOM THUMB,--On Monday night, pur suant to the command of her Maj es ty, " General Tom Thumb," the celebrated American dwarf, had the honour 'of appearing for the second time before the Court at Bucking ham Palace. In addition to her Majesty the Queen, her Majesty the Queen of the Belgians, his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, and their respective suites, a distinguished party had been invited to witness the performance. His delineation of the Emperor Napoleon elicited great mirth, and this was followed by a representation of the Grecian statues ' after which the Gene ral danced a hornpipe and sang several of his favourite songs. Her • Majesty was pleased to present the General with her own hand a superb souvenir of the most exquisite handicraft, of mother of pearl, and mounted with gold and precious stones. On one side are the Crown and Royal initials V. R. ; On the reverse bouquets of flowers in enamel and rubies. In addition to this splendid gift, her Majesty subsequently pre sented the General with a beautiful gold pencil-case, with the initials of Tom Thumb, and his coat of arms engraved on the emerald surmounting the case, accompany this Royal souvenir with the expression of her Majesty's high gratifica tion at his versatile talents. The dwarf had scarcely made his appearance in the afternoon at the Egyptian Hall, when the Duke of Wellington honoured the General with a visit. At the moment the Duke entered the room, the General was in the act of giving an imitation of Napoleon musing at St. Helena, and on the Duke inquiring what he was meditating on, he happily replied, " Upon the loss of the Battle of Wa terloo." His Grace then took the dwarf into his arms, and asked him several questions, with the answers to which the Duke appeared much pleased, and on his departure presented the General with a handsome douceur. AN ENGLISH AVALANCHE.—On Monday last, the 18th inst., as a party of shepherds were out o n Lon g dale Fells—situate betwixt Orton and the Yorkshire mountains — they had to encounter most formidable drifts of snow, in order to rescue the sheep from their icy prisons. Edward Wilson, yeoman, of Long Gills, was under the necessity of walking on a very steep acclivity, when the snow suddenly began to move in an immense volume from under his feet: with such velocity, that the young man was unable to keep his body in an upright position, the rapid progress of the avalanche—for such it really was—making him excessively giddy. Ile managed, however, to sit as long as he could, till, having descended to a rocky precipice, where, about fifty years ago, a person of the name of James Atkinson was un fortunately. killed under similar circumstances, he, the shep herd in question, was dreadfully injured by the concussion occasioned by the stoppage. He, nevertheless, had presence of mind enough to tie his handkerchief or neckcloth round his head; to which probably he owed hie preservation, as, although he bled considerably, he did not lose conscious ness, and, on the whole, was much less injured than might have been anticipated under the circumstances, and in a place so dangerous. On reaching home, Mr. Noble, surgeon, of Orton, was promptly in attendance; and we have much pleasure in stating that he is now in a fair way to recover.— Kendal Mercury. A Gascon is not only a boaster; he is often a wit, and the French jest books are filled with anecdotes of gas conading. - From amongst a host of them we select the fol lowing:—" Gasconading was a marked characteristic of the court of Henry IV. Though the Monarch was riot exempt from the fault himself, he grew tired of it in others, and en treated his Minister Malherbe to endeavour to reform it al together—to de-gasconise his Court. Must I sweep them all away, Sire?' asked the Minister. • 'All,' replied the Prince. Upon which Malherbe slyly answered, Then I presume your Majesty wishes to abdicate.' Another Prince told a Gascon gentleman, who had former'y served him as Ambassador, that he looked like an ox. ' I cannot say what I look like,' replied the Gascon, but this I know, that I have frequently represented your Majesty's person.' A Gascon abbe, who lost a living from the indecent haste of which he was guilty in canvassing for it, declared he had run so fast after the benefice, that he ' outstript, in his flight; his guardian angel.'

EXETER HA L L.----There was a numerous audience collected here, last night, to hear th e orator i o o f t h e Messiah. In the choral sections of thi s orator i o the Sacred Harmonic Society has long been pre-eminent for the pre cision, solidity; and feeling with which it execu t es them. Practice has really ma de perfect the de ve l opmen t o f th ese mighty bursts of musical genius—there is neither loitering shyness nor carelessness observable. It is usual for the Society to perform the oratorio with extraordinary complete ness of effect, but the appearance of M. D uprez cou ld not b e considered otherwise, when first announc e d, t h an an a dditi on of great interest. Everybody who had heard him elsewhere believed that he was capable of produci ng a wonderfu l effect in the recitatives and airs of Handel. The success, however, of this great singer was hardly commensu ra t e with the expectation. In his first recitative, "Comfort ye," it was found that he was labouring under a hoarse ness which crippled his vocal Powers sadly; his in tonation was fiat, a defect that was present more or less throughout the evening ; but there was always great intelli gence and propriety. His best etlort was the air " Behold and see," which he delivered W i th consummate feeling and expression. Miss E. Birch sang very prettily, ill a way that will recommend her for the future. Miss Dolby is deserving of the highest commendation for the excellence with which she delivered the airs which fell to her lot ; and, specially, for the style in which she gav e that beautiful plaintive me lody, "lie was despised," should she be applauded. There was genuine expression without conventional effort. FRIGIITFUL ACCIDENT AT NANTYGLO.—It is with unfeigned sorrow that we have to announce a melancholy and fatal accident which happened at these works, last week. It appears that four colliers were descending the pit in a bucket, when the chain broke, and th ey were i n a mome nt launched into another world. No blame is attached to any person. Two of the unfortunate sufferers have left wives and large familieS to lanient their loss. Several . others .were so dreadfully injured, that little hopes are at present enter tained of their recovery.—Merlin. --"'
