Mr. Justice COLTMAN, in passing the last sentence of the law upon this wretched woman, was much affected. The Learned Judge said the present case was one of the most distressing it had been his lot to witness since he had sat on the judicial bench. By the prisoner's own confession she had destroyed the life of one of her husband's children by a former wife, and she had not hesitated to destroy the off spring of her own womb. He could hold out no hope of mercy being extended to her in this life. She must prepare to meet that doom the laws of the cguntry made him pro nounce, and that was—that she be taken to the place from whence she came, thence to the place of execution, there to be hung by the neck till she was dead; and he hoped the Lord would have mercy on her wretched soul. Three cases of highway robbery were tried during the day,. and in the Civil Court Lord Denman disposed of seven eem mon juries, none of which were of any interest except to the parties. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY : ) CLERKEN WELL. Two men, named Ray and Long, who have been re peatedly convicted at police courts, were brought up in custody, of Inspector Barton, of the G division, charged with the following daring attempt 'at fraud:— The inspector said he was on duty in the station house at 13a,gniege-wells on the previous night, when the prisoners boldlyentered the charge room, and, in a peremptory manner, claimed the interference of the police. They said they were recruits belonging to the 90th Regiment of Infantry, and had been billeted upon the Union Tavern, in Baker-street, but the landlord, Mr. Anderson, had refused to receive them. Thereupon they produced a billet. Witness inspected it, and found that it was indeed a genuine billet, which had been signed by Sergeant Scotchmer, of the G division of police, but, on closer examination, he discovered that the origi nal date of the billet, " 16th July,. 1844," bad been erased, and 23d July, 1844, stffstituted. Witness asked them from whom they received the billet, and they re plietrfrom Sergeant Lambert, of the East India Com pany's service, and again peremptorily demanded that the police would enforce their reception at the Union. The inspector, however, determined upon furnishing them with a reception in a very different place, for knowing that the East India Company could not billet, he locked up "the recruits" who immediately acknow ledged the fraud. Mr. Conine.—What do you think their object was? Inspector Barton—l have no doubt but their design was to rob the house, for they never asked for the money (25.), which the publican who refuses to lodge them is bnind to give them. The landlord of the Union described the prisoners conduct as most overbearing; he refused to lodge them unless at the instance of their corporal. Alfred Bennett, a staff sergeant, and a recruiting officer, living at 17, Duke -street, Westminster, deposed that the prisoners were not recruits, but were constantly lounging about those places' *here - recruits were en listed, fastening themselves upon inexperienced young men, and plundering them whenever they had an oppor tunity. They were the most artful villains he had ever known. He could not tell how the billet got into their possession. Mr. °WIDE inquired for the precept (a printed docu ment issued from the Horse Gilards, and authorising the billeting of a certain number of recruits), which was, after some hesitation, handed to the magistrate. James Stephens, a sergeant in the 90th regiment, like wise deposed that the prisoners had not been enlisted into that regiment, and to which the billet found on the prisoners belonged. Mr. CO➢IBE—How did this billet get into the pri soners' possession ? Sergeant- Stephens—l can't tell. Mr: Coaing (holding up the precept)—How many re cruits received billets on the 16th of July, for which the precept - is dated ? Sergeant Bennett—Sixteen. Mr. °WIDE —IV hy . the precept states three- and-twenty. Sergeant Stephens--Well, so three-and-twenty might, if they liked, have got billets, ;but only sixteen were in attendance when the billets were distributed. Mr. COMI2E—But it further appeared, by this docu ment, that a halfpenny each was allowed for each of the three-and-twenty to pay the publicans for stationery, &c. How many recruits received the halfpenny ? Ser geant Bennett—Sixteen. Mr. - °WIDE-But three-andLtwenty have been received and taken out of the public purse. Sergeant Stephens—They would have received them if they had been all present. Mr. ComnE—lt is quite clear there is a system of public plunder going on, and you will, if you persevere in this attempt to deceive me, draw some very strong observa tions. The whole thing seems grossly irregular, and the more you say the worse you make it. The prisoners said they bought the billet for twopence, from a recruit. Mr. COMBS committed them to the sessions, again observing on (he gross irregularity of the mode in which_ the billets were distributed. George South, a cow-keeper, residing in Portland-place, Islington, was charged with cruelly maltreating a horse. Mr. Thomas, secretary to the Society for the Protection of Animals, Pa appeared to sustain the complaint. It appeared from the evidence that the defendant's horse strayed into the grounds of Mr. Peter Gentle, who seized him, and was taking him to the pound along the public road, when the defendant came up, and directed Mr. Gentle to let him go. Mr. Gentle refused, whereupon Mr. South 'legged the horse for ;I long time in a cruel manner, endeavouring to oblige the animal to burst from his grasp. He did not succeed, however, and was.summoned for his cruelty. Mr. COMBE fined him 21.—The fine was paid at once. BOW-STREET. Tuesday, George Gator. a constable of the F division, ap peared before Mr. 'Pwyford, to answer a complaint preferred against him by Mrs. llogg, wife, of a hosier and glover, 73, Fleet-street, for taking her into custody against her will,' and using brutal conduct towards her. Mr. Corder, the clerk to the guardians, and Mr. Boswood, relieving officer of the Strand union, attended to watch the case, as the decision of the Magistrate was expected to guide the police in future respecting the course to be pursued by them regarding deserted children. Mr. Hogg stated, that on Tuesday evening, the 21st inst., about seven o'clock, he was returning to Essex-street, ac companied by his wife, her niece, and his children, and, on turning round to ascertain the cause of their delay at the corner of Essex-street, he- was perfectly astounded at seeing them surrounded by a mob of persons, among whom was the defendant. On going up, he found his wife in a very agitated state, and with difficult) , she informed him that the con stable was about to take her to the station house. He imme diately accosted the defendant, demanding to know if his wife was really in custody, and he replied she was, and that she should accompany him to the station-house. Witness then heard somethins , about a lost child, there being a child standing in the crowd at the time, hut he did not ask the de fendant why his wife was in custody, and he appealed to his sympathy on her behalf, pointing out that she was far gone in the family way, surrounded by her four children, of which he took no notice, and having procured a cab he had them conveyed to a neighbour's house. He then came to the station, and when thA charge was taking he thought the inspector on duty appeared to sanction such 'an outrage on the liberty of the subject. In answer to the defendant witness said he did not see him lay handi on his wife, and he allowed her to go to the station in a cab while witness sat on the box. Mr. Corder observed, that of late - cases of deserting children in the streets were of frequent occurrence, in consequence of which the police were obliged to use the utmost precaution, and require the parties to accompany them and lay the charge before a superior officer in the usual way. In answer to further questions by the defendant, witness denied having said his wife should not go the station unless it was distinctly understood she was in custody, nor did he see his wife bring the child to the defendant. • Mrs. Hogg, who seemed in a very weakly state, said she was in the Strand at the time in question, and seeing the de fendant on duty, she brought a little girl, about five years old, who was crying at the corner of Essex-street, to him, saying, " My - good man, will you take this child, and find nut where she lives?" To which he replied, " No, madim, ' I shall not take the child, but take you." She then said, " My good man, -what have I done that you should take me?" and he again replied, " You are my prisoner, and you must go with me to the station-house." Witness asked did he suppose she wanted to take anything from the child, hav ing four of her own with her, but he made no other reply than that she should go to the station, house, upon which her husband came up. Cross-examined by the defendant--In the confusion after wards he might have said he would take charge of the child if witness would accompany him to the station. The child was dressed in black, and witness was also dressed partly in black. He might have also said, ‘ 4 If you leave the child you must consider yourself in my custody." The defendant, addressing the Magistrate, asked if a child appearing under the protection of any person, was brought to him as being deserted, was he obliged to take a mere asser tion in such a case? Mr. TWYFORD said it was not his duty to give instruction to a constable on such a subjeCt. The defendant said he had acted under the impression that the child might have been under the protection of the person preferring the complaint. Mr. TWYFORD said it could scarcely be called a mistaken sense of duty, that because an individual called the attention of a policeman to a destitute child, such persons ought to be taken into custody, and he wished to hear the opinion of Mr. Corder upon the subject. Mr. Corder, assuming that the child was deserted — Mr. TWYFORD—No, no ; it is given in evidence that the complainant was surrounded by her family. . Mr. Corder—lf she happened -to be the parent of the child the constable acted very properly. Mr. TWY roltn--No d o ubt th e man thought he was acting right, but hit happened in be wrong. Mr. Corder said h e cou ld s t a t e m ost remarkable cases of desertion where the parents appeared to be in very respect able circumstances. The defendant, appealing to Mr. Corder, said he was told on former occasions by the Strand union authorities, if lie brought another deserter to them he should be reported to the Commissioners, unless he also brought forward the parties concerned ; and in the present case the complainant brought the child to him by the hand. Mr. Corder assured the Court that cases came under his notice in which bribes to any extent had been offered to screen the parties concerned:* ' John Kendrick,with them.ofple-street Mr. Temple-street, , Mr. TWYFORD a d m itt e d th a t s u c h might have been the case, but here th e cons t a bl e s h ou ld have ascertained the address of the pa r ti es , an d pa t hi mse lf in possession of every thing connected Whitefriars, proved that he was ret urn i ng h ome w ith his wife when ho saw a child without h a t or b onne t, a pp ar ently in a bewildered state, which led hi m t o conc l u d e it was lost. Mrs. Hogg, with whom he was totally unacquained, came up at the moment, and, after pointing it out to the defendant as lost, she was told she should go to the station, which made her so agitated she could not reply. Mr. Hogg then drew the at tention of the defendant to his wife's situation, after telling him who he was ; at the same time volunteering to go to the station instead of his wife, which the defendant re fused. Witness also drew the defendant's attention to the complainant's situation, of which he took no notice ; but his impression was that the defendant considered he was doing his duty. Mr. TWYFORD said if the case went before a jury the ex cuse of a mistaken sense of duty wo u ld be of very little avail, and, as the cas e was o f a nove l nature, he would consult the Chief Magistrate before he would give his decision. Mr. Hogg said the subject seemed to involve a very principle,extra ordrorihnneaTuryparteiesa then James a w n WORSHIP-STREET sleaßntEdst:Hiheoetictrotaurh.somtu.TigdßhditzerEt right, r. upon public grounds; to bring it before the Court. ec centric appearance, whose clothes were - I g u e c d h i d n disordered, rveedrTwho wore a large gold cross suspended by a riband from his neck, and who bore an open Bible in his hand, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Bingham, charged with knocking at the doors of several respectable inhabitants of Hoxton, without having a reasonable excuse for so doing. The defendant is well known in his neighbourhood, and considered a lunatic. Some time ago he was removed to the Islington workhouse, and kept in confinement, and afterwards obtained 4001. damages in the Court of Common Pleas for false imprisonment. On being placed at the bar yesterday, Mr. Vine, the chief clerk, asked, "Is your name James Elliott ?" Defendant (delivering the whole sentence with extreme rapidity before he could be stopped)—Yes. James Elliott. Who gave you that name? My godfathers and godmothers, &c. The defendant was proceeding but was stopped by Sergeant Dubois. who gave a long list of annoyances which various persons had been subjected to by the defendant, in his vagaries; some of them of a malignant and violent, others of a ludicrous character. Mr. BINGHAM asked the defendant if he wished to say any thing? The defendant—Yes, I do. It is all perfectly, true what they say . gainst me; but the fact was, I was as drunk as a fiddler. ale sergeant said he had made inquiry, and found the de fendant's connexions highly respectable. Defendant—Never mind that. 'You see, Sir (to the Magis trate) I have been travelling abroad for the last twenty-two years, and only returned to England last night. I came home in company with a very queer gentleman, who I rather think was the Pope of Rome, but I lost him somehow, and where he went to I can't tell ; but I'm sure he went to a place too hot to hold him.—(Laughter.) Mr. BINGHAM ordered him to pay a fine of 205., or a week's imprisonment in the House of Correction. Defendant said he had not twenty farthinol, but would read the 3lagistrate a chapter out of the Bible worth 201., which he said was the same thing. He was about Acr do so, when .he was removed by Sergeant Dubois, whom, when in the yard, he struck a violent blow on the back of the head with the Bible, 'which nearly knoeked him over a pile of ladders, at the same time exclaiming, " So you won't listen to the word of God, won't you? Then, d—n you, I'll make you feel it." He was instantly secured, and locked up. UNION-HALL. John Edney, a commercial traveller, was charged before Mr. Traill with furiously driving and endangering the life of John Williamson, a lad, the son of a policeman. It appeared that on Thursday last the defendant was ob served in a gig, driving at the rate of twenty miles an hour, down the Kent-road. In the course of his career a boy named Williamson, happening to be off the pavement, was knocked down, and the wheel of the vehicle passed over both Ins legs, and injured them very seriously, but, extraordinary to relate, did not break either of them. The defendant said that he had been struck by a person in a gig on before him, and that it was to overtake his as sailant that he put his horse into a gallop, when the accident occurred. The injured boy's father said that the defendant had ex hibited great regret at the accident, and had engaged to pay the surgeon ; therefore he did not wish to prosecute. Mr. TRAn.r, said that he was bound to inflict some punish ment on the defendant, and accordingly fined him 405., and a further sum of 3/. for damage. THE LATE FATAL OCCURRENCE AT BLACKFRIARS-BRIDGE. ADJOURNED INQUEST. The jury, who had been impannelled to inquire into the circumstances of the late accident at Blackfriars-bridge, re assembled yesterday at one, in the St. Ann's Schoolroo m , Church-entry, Blackfriars. Upon the names having been called over, the proceedings were opened by Mr. Joseph Payne, the Deputy-Coroner. Mr. Evans, of the firm of Newbon and Evans, attended to watch the proceedings on the part of the Watermen's Company. The remaining four bodies, the subiect of the present in quiry, were Maria Pulheston, aged 23, Benjamin Breadcott, aged 4, Mary Ann Breadcott, aged 10, and Rhoda Bread cott, aged 14. The CORONER said. he would take that opportunity of stating his satisfaction that attention had been drawn to this circumstance there and in another place. He referred to the application made by Mr. Under-Sheriff Anderton and re sponded to by the Lord Mayor, which he hoped would have the effect of preventing a recurrence of any similar calamity at any future time. The case of Rhoda Broadcott was first taken. Margaret Canning, 2, Holiday yard, was the first witness examined—She was a married female, and was on the wooden bridge at Blackfriars on the night of Monday, from seven till nine o'clock. Saw Mr. Breadcott and his boy. The father was on the bridge next to her, and the little boy was stand ing in front of him. Witness also observed one of the girls, she believed the tallest, on one .side of him. She was there at the time the bridge broke, and she fell into the water, but saved herself by clinging to the piece of the bridge that was broken. She did not see anything of the girl or boy after but saw Mr. Breadcott without his bat, being led along by the houses. She paid nothing to get on to the bridge. She did not think that on the broken part the people exceeded thirty or forty. There were a great many on the pier and barge, but that was the number on the bridge broken. She heard a slight crack, and the bridge seemed leaning on one side like a vessel. Heard several guns fire immediately before the accident. She made an observation to Mr. Breadcott at the time she heard the crack, but he did not hear her. Observed that one of the water men was active in turning off the children, but he seemed not to pay attention to the grown up persons. Did not see any money offered or taken for admission on to the bridge. She must have seen such had it taken place. The boys were collected ready for starting at the time, but they had not done so. Her opinion, judging from what she saw was, that the whole was an accident arising from the number of persons. She did make an observation to Mr. Breadcott, that she thought there were too many of them at that particular part of the bridge. By a juror —There were no passengers passing from steamboats at the time of the accident. The people stood in single line, and there was a place left in the middle. Heard a second crack, which was a Very loud one, and then she made the best of her way to the pier. When she fell into the water she clung to the broken pier, still holding her child, and she was afterwards rescued by some one. A gentleman tried to save her who was present there. She stepped on to a part of the 'wood that was still affixed, and so was pulled ashore. Mr. John Breadcott was then sworn—He lived at 23, New gate-market, and he was a butcher. The deceased children were his. Rhoda was in her fifteenth year, Mary Anne was ten years old, and the boy, Benjamin George, was four years old. All the three were with him upon the bridge, on the Monday evening. They paid nothing for going on it. The CORONER said that the witness might make any state r ment he pleased, as he did not wish to question him as to the whole painful particulars. Witness continued—He thought the place he was standing on was perfectly safe ; and he thought there was great neg lect in allowing the people to stand there. He saw no police men there, and he was not once informed that there was any danger. The accident took place in a moment, and he found himself, with his children, in the water. He was on the bridge about thirty minutes. Did not hear the last witness make any observation. Could not describe particu larly how it happened, as it was all momentary. Did ndt hear any crack before the bridge broke. He thought he might be about two yards from the stairs. There might be about thirty persons there. By the Conoxim—Did not,wbile standing there, hear any person warn people off the bridge, or he would have left at once. By a Juror—lt might be half-past seven, or twenty minutes to eight o'clock when he went on. There was no crash, all was quite easy. lie did not see many where he was. He took the children with him to see the rowing match. He is not deaf; and did not hear guns firing, or the bridge crack, or the last witness make any observation. He was pulled out by one of the pier-men. Francis Tapley said he was a fish-salesman, in Lower Thames-street, and had just landed from one of the iron one boats. foot He on i was t. H s t e a n d h i e n a g r d o na an the h o e b s b e r r i:l n g t e; i 0n at th laetas tthe e boats oats were about starting; and turning round, be looked towards the river. At the same moment the bridge gave way. He should say, that there were from eighty to one hundred on the wooden bridge altogether. The CORONER —How persons differ in their estimate of numbers. Witness stood for some minutes, and therefore had an opportunity ofjudging. The principal persons on the bridge were looking at the rowing, and he never saw persons crowded closer, all up and down the stairs, than they were. When' the bridge broke, most of the persons ran back, but he (witness) ran forward, and was instrumental in dragging two out. The bridge fell right in half. Part rested against the stone-work. He thought there might be sixteen persons saved. The girl Rhoda was picked out by a person in a skiff, who was not now present. lie had no doubt that the accident arose from the number of persons on the bridge. Thomas Eves, 303 City policeman—He did not see the accident occur, but went there immediately afterwards, and saw the girl Rhoda pulled out by a lighterman, who was not present, and whose name he did not know. She was raised by one of the drags. Saw also the female, Maria Pulleston, got out by the same man. It was about an hour after the bridge was broken. Saw no other bodies found. By a juror —He, saw at least sixty persons on th e b r id ge half an hour before it gave way. The watermen were en- deavouring to drive them- off, but the moment their backs were turned they went on again. He would have had no hesi tation in assisting to turn them offif he had been applied to. The accident was solely attributable to the number of persons upon it. The boats were nearly arranged, and he had heard the guns fire twice—the second time Just as the bridge broke. Thomas Jones, waterman ' 2 Pye-court, Mansell-street, Goodrnan's-fields.—About half-past 7, heard a great noise all at once, and ran to the barges to make his boat fast. Saw a little boy under a skiff struggling hard. Jumped off the barge and swam to him ; got him into the boat and then got in himself. After he had put that boy ashore, he went out again, rind picked up the boy Benjamin alive, but he died in his arms. He left him with the surgeon, and then went out in his boat again, with a young man in his com pany. The young man brought up Mary Ann. Took her ashore and laid her on the same barge as he had laid the little boy before. She was dead. hy a Juror—The boy was not floating. He was picked off the ground by means ofa staff. Mr. Hutchinson, surgeon—Went to the Glaziers' Arms at a little before eight o'clock. Found the body of Mary Ann Breadcott, who had been just carried in. Had her wrapt •in warm blankets, and did all that was usual in such cases to restore animation. The means of resuscitation were continued for • one hour and a half, but without success. About ten minutes after the boy was brought in by a gentleman, who said he was a surgeon, and who had been trying to restore anima tion in the barge, and had him afterwards brought to the Glaziers' Arms. He exhibited no signs of life. The other daughter was brought in also, but she having been upwards of an hour in the water, it was perfectly useless to try to restore her. The femal e Pulleston was brought in last. Death in all the cases had resulted Men drowning. Edward Thomas Pulleston, Jerusalem-court, St. John's square, Clerkenwell, currier—The deceased Maria was his daughter. She would be 23 next November. He was on Blackfriars-bridge at the time of the accident. Did not know that his daughter was On the platform. Saw it break. Would think that there were forty to fifty on it at the time. heard a crash, and noticed the people struggling in the water. Did not know his daughter was there till lie got home. Eves recalled—The oody was found on the left hand of the broken bridge. Witness continued—Saw two of the pier-men rendering every assistance at the time of the accident. The CORONER said, that having gone so fully into the case cn the former occasion, he would not now detain them by any extended remarks. It seemed to him in substance the same in evidence as formerly, but if they saw any difference they would, of course, consult as to their verdict, bat if not, they would return the same verdict as before. The jury at once returned a verdict of " Accidental Death" in each case, and added an opinion, that there was no blame to be attached to the pier proprietors. Some idea of the influx of visitors to the Southampton Agricultural Show may be formed from the fact that, in andi tioil to the regular trains, there were four special trains (doing the distance in two hours and a half), each crowded with people.

The insolvent in this case, who appeared to be an old and sickly man, applied on his petition to be discharged, to file which, he was compelled to apply to the Court as a pauper, and succeeded in getting 51. to defray the law expenses. Mr. WOODRUFFE opposed the insolvent on behalf of Mr. Meadows, on the ground of withholding certain ac count-books, and concealing property. He was examined at great length with respect to a freehold property which he had possess9d at Barnet, and in right of which he voted at the last election for Middlesex. In his exami nation he admitted that at the time he voted the pro perty was out of his hand, another person holding it as collateral security. At that time he had no right to vote. Mr. Commissioner Lew said although there were some suspicious facts connected with the case, they were not sufficient to justify a remand. The insolvent was then discharged. SUMMER ASSIZES. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Worcester, July 22. The commission was opened for the county and city of Worcester, about six o'clock on Saturday evening, by Lord Chief Justice. Tindal,.and business commenced this morning at ten o'clock .before. Mr.. Sergeant Atcherley, in the Nisi Priors Court, while the Lord Chief Justice charged the grand jury on the Crown side of the Hall. The civil business is rather above than under the usual .average. There are 21 causes for trial, 19 for the county, and 2 for the city, among whizh two are marked for special juries. One of these, an action of ejectment, is expected to opcupy at least two days. There is also a case among the 'nisi prius records whlch excites some interest in this and the adjoining county of Gloucester—an indictment for perjury against Mr. Augustus Newton, barrister-at-law. This case stands fixed to come on the first thing to-morrow morning. The calendar is heavy, considered with reference both to the .number of prisoners who are to tried, and the nature of the offences imputed to them. There are fifty-nine pri 46ners, and forty-two cases, and among them are two cases. of 'abusing -children under ten years of age, two of unna tural offences, two of - thooting with intent to murder or , naim,, one of concealment of the birth of a child by burning the body, two of manslaughter, five of burglary, four of breaking and entering the dwelling-house in the day-time, and three of robbery with violence. There is also a charge against a person named Bowen, - described in the calendar ;is a labourer, for having feloniously destroyed and injured part of a leaf of a register-book of births, burials, and mar riages, of the parish of Croome D'Abitot. NISI PRlUS.—(Before Mr. Sergeant ATCIIERLEY.) DATE AND ANOTHER V. BLURTON AND ANOTHER. This was an action on a promissory note for 500/, brought against the executors of one Patience Clarke, deceased, to which the defendants pleaded that the said Patience Clarke did not make the note in question. The plaintiffs, Messrs. Bate and Robins, carry on business in partnership as bankers at Stourbridge, where the deceased, Mrs. Patience Clarke, who died in December, 1842, also re sided before death. She, it appeared, formerly kept a public house, and being a woman well acquainted with business, managed to accumulate some little preperty, amounting to about 3,0001. Her family consisted of two sons and a daugh ter, and in 1836 her daughter, whose maiden name was also Patience Clarke, was married to a person named Morris, then established in business as a grocer at Stourbridge. At the time of the marriage Mrs. Clarke had a deposit account of 1,000/. with the plaintiff's, and she told her daughter that she had desired the people at the bank not to lot her husband stand still for want of money, but to let him have anything in reason. The business of Morris, backed by his mother in-law's capital, went on pretty well for some time, but in 1342 he fell into difficulties, and in the month of July in that year his account with the plaintiffs was overdrawn to the extent of 450/. In the interval which elapsed between July, 1842, and the time when her daughter married Morris, Mrs. Clarke had withdrawn her 1,0001. placed with the plaintiffs on a deposit account, and had advanced 500/. to each of her two sons, Richard and Joseph ; the bank, there fore, required security for the payment of the balance overdrawn by Morris, and Mrs. Morris, as she repre sented, went to her mother with a joint and several pro missory note for 5004 already signed by her husbaud, in her pocket. She told her mother that the bank required security, upon which the old lady told Mrs. Morris to sign it for her, which the daughter accordingly did, signing Patience Clarke," in a free and flowing hand. The note thus signed was taken to the bank, but there it was ob jected that the signature was not made by Mrs. Clarke herself, and Mrs. Morris was desired to'take it back, and get it signed by her mother. Mrs. Morris accordingly did take itbaek, and her account of the matter was, that when she explained to' her mother what had occurred at the bank, _Mr.% Clarke desired her to sign again for her, saying it would do just as well. Mrs. Morris, therefore, affixed a second sig.- nature to the note, but this time she wrote ".P. Clarke," in a cramped and laboured hand, in order, as she herself ad mitted, to induce the plaintiff to believe that the note was really signed. by her mother. As has been already stated, Mrs. Clarke died in December, 1842, and in March, 1843, the embarrassments into which Morris had fallen had become so formidable, that his professional advisers judged it most expedient that -he should make an assignment of all his effects for the benefit of his creditors. Mr. Robins, as a cre ditor who was supposed to be very largely involved, was in formed of the arrangement which was about to take place, upon which he came to Morris's hOuse, and remarked to Richard Clarke, the brother of Mrs. Morris, that he presumed he was aware that he held a note of Mrs. Clarke's for 500/. At this annonncement Clarke professed great astonishment, and, according to the statement which Clarke himself, and an attorney named Talbot, who was present at the time, made, Mr:Robins then inquired of -Mrs. Morris why she had not told her brother of the 5001. note, her brother having assisted her husband in his difficulties. To this Mrs. Morris. replied that she did not think Mr. Robins had wished him to know it, upon which Mr. Robins said she was a wicked woman, and left the house. When he was gone, Mrs. Morris turned to her brother and said; " That the note was good for nothing, and that Robins should not have a farthing ; that she signed the name of her mother at full length, • Patience Clarke,' without her authority, and that when the note was refused, she took it home, and had it signed by an old charwoman." His LORDSIIIP summed up the evidence with great minute ness, leaving it to the jury to say to which of the witnesses they would give credit. The jury found for the plaintiffs, with 512/. 10s. damages. The cases tried in the Crown Court to-day were devoid of general interest. NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Cambridge, July 22. (Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.) John Garland, aged 65, was indicted for feloniously killing Marv, the wife of John Dent. Mr. Prendergast conducted the prosecution, Mr. O'Malley the defence. The deceased was the wife of a man living at Littleport, in the Isle of Ely, and the prisoner has for upwards of 30 years practised as a surgeon in that town. On the 22d of May last the decased had, by imprudently lifting or dragging a heavy sack of flour, brought on symptoms of miscarriage, and the prisoner was sent for to attend her. He arrived as soon as possible, and proceeded to administer the treatment he thought necessary, in the course of which he removed a por tionpf the intestines of his patient, which had probably been displaced by the exertion which had brought on the illness which rendered it necessary to send for him. She was in great pain, and another medical man was sent for, on whose arrival it was found necessary wholly to remove the displaced portion of the intestines. She continued to get worse, and, notwithstanding the judicious treatment of two or three emi nent surgeons who were called in, she died at the end of seventeen days. The surgeons who attended the post modem examination of the body were of opinion that she died from the effects of the prisoner's treatment, and that he had shown gross ignorance in that treatment. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS, in summing up the evidence, stated that the law as applicable to this case was very clear; and applying that law to the circumstances as they had been proved, the jury would say whether or not the prisoner was guilty of the crime of manslaughter. Every person, whether he be a regularly licensed medical man or not, who professes to deal with the life or health of his fellow-creatures, is bound to bring to the case with which he deals a competent degree of skill; and he is also bound to treat his patient with care and attention. If he shows gross ignorance, culpable rash ness, or criminal inattention in the treatment of his patient, and death ensues in consequence, he is guilty of the crime of manslaughter. He may have no evil intention, he may in deed bring to the case the most earnest desire to effect the cure of his patient; but still, if he is guilty of criminal mis conduct arising either from gross negligence, or ignorance, or unjustifiable inattention, he is criminally responsible. One or other of these it was necessary for the prosecutor to make out,- in order to constitute that criminal misconduct which renders a man responsible if death occurs. The learned Judge read the evidence verbatim to the jury, and desired them to consider whether in the treatment of his patient, as proved by Mrs. Banvard, the prisoner had shown a gross and cul pable want of knowledge, care, or attention, and that her death was caused thereby. If they were of opinion that he had, he was guilty of the crime with which he was charged ; if otherwise, he was entitled to an acquittal. The jury, after some deliberation, found the prisoner Guilty. The Learned JUDGE, in sentencing the prisoner, who was deeply affected at his position, observed, that be should be sorry if the proceedings in this case should tend to place medical men in any danger, or induce them to abstain from the fair application of their talents in the exercise of the arduous and anxious duties of their profession. They were not to expect a favourable result in every case ; medical science could never attain that. The consequences of this trial would seriously affect the prisoner's interests through life ; and looking to that circumstance, the absence of every thing like towards his patient, and his advanced age, when a long imprisonment must he attended by the most prejudicial effects, the Court was induced to pass on him the mitigated sentence, that he be imprisoned for one calendar month. l'anny Rutherford was indicted for feloniously setting fire to an outhouse. The prisoner is a child of the age of 15 years, and the out house which was burnt (together with the cottages of five poor persons) adjoined the house of her father. The case was made out by very satisfactory evidence, but no motive could be assigned for the commission of the crime. She was found Guilty, and sentenced to be transported for 15 years. Igo civil cause was tried to-day, and the other cases in the CroNin Court were of the most trivial character. The grand jury threw out one bill for arson, in which five persons were accused, and two ethers were acquitted on an uninteresting point of law. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Lincoln, July 22. The Judges arrived in this city on Saturday, at half-past five, and proceeded to open the commission for both city and county. In the former there was neither cause nor prisoner. In the county there are but nine causes and thirty-one pri soners, but though the number of the latter is not great, yet the crimes with which they are charged are of a deep dye, there being four for murder, one charged with intent to mur der, one for rape, several for burglary, three for highway rob ber y &c. ' CRIMINAL: COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice CovratAN.). Eliza Joyce, aged 31, was placed at the bar charged with having, in the October of 1841, at Boston , feloniously admi nistered a certain poison called laudanum to one Emma Joyce, with intent to kill and murder her ; a second indictment charged her with the commission of a like offence in the January of 1842, on the body of Ann Joyce. The prisoner was tried at the last spring assizes holden for this county, for having murdered one of the children of her •husband, by his first wife, when, owing to some defect in the proof; she was liberated. Her husband, however, felt per suaded of her guilt,.and refused to live with her. Provision was made for her in the Boston union, and it was during the continuance of a violent fit of illness with which she was attacked that she made the confession upon which she was arraigned, namely, that she had murdered the two children mentioned in the indictment by means of laudanum, the eldest, which was three years old, being the daughter of her husband by a fermer,wife, the other a child eighteen months old being her own. The appearance of the prisoner, in deep mourning, as she stepped into the dock, created a thrill of horror in the Court. She was evidently ill both in body and ' 51.55.

There was a large amount of business done in the yarn market yesterday, . and prices show a decided ten dency to advance, especially in the lower numbers of mule yarn, and in water twist, which is ver3 scarce. Ih goods, too, the demand has been extensive ; but yei terday manufacturers were asking higher prices, which somewhat checked business. The market, however, continues very buoyant. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY.—There has been a very brisk demand for flannels to-day, and in many instances, the manufacturer has obtained a small advance in price. In wool there has been a fair business doing, with ready sales at former prices. RAILWAY FROM SOUTHAMPTON TO DORCHESTER. —A meeting was held in the Town-hail, in Dorchester , on Friday, of those persons who were favourable to what has been termed the coast line. It was very nume rously and most respectably' attended. The Mayor of Dorchester was in the chair. The report of the committee, containing the reports of Captain Moorsom and Mr. Pale, was read. Captain Moorsom stated much in favour of that line to pass b) Redbrook, Lyndhurst, Ringwood, Wila; borne, Poole, and Wareham, and so to Dorchester, and from Dorchester, by atmospheric traction, over the hills to Weymouth. The expenses of the line between South ampton and Dorchester would be 450,0001., and Dor chester to Weymeuth 104,0002 more. Mr. Pare's report stated that the traffic would amount to 48,7521., • and that the profit would be 6 i per cent. The committee strongly recommended the adop tion of this line, and stated that they believed they should meet will - , the co operation of the South-Western Con?' pany. Lord Worsley moved the adoption of the report. It was very desirable that this county should have the `advantage of railway communication with London and the south-eastern parts of England. It was pf national importance that there should be a railway along the coast, in case of war, or of vessels corO mitting depredations. Captain Garland seconded the resolution. A long discussion then took place, as to whether it could not go from Wareham to Weymouth , and so on to Bridport and Exeter, avoiding Dorchester , and as to whether it could not be palled the Southamr ton, Dorchester, and Weymouth Railroad. Mr. Ilo4' ding dreir attention to the line from Salisbury, through, Shaftesbury, to Dorchester. Ultith a t e ly, th e na me 01 the line was settled to be Southampton and Dorchester , and the resolution was carried unanimously. A vote of thanks was passed to the Committee and the Mayor. PUSEYITE PERSECUTION OF WESLEYANS.—A sad scene has just taken place at Launton, which will be long remembered. A woman of the name of Rebecca Sarin died ; 'she had been thirteen years a consistent member of the Wesleyan church in that village. Deceased, on her death-bed, desired that she might be buried by the side of other members of the family, in the churchyard. On her wishes being made known to the Rev. T. W. Allies, the incunr bent of the place, after her death, he not onlY, refused to allow her to b e i n t erre d w h ere s h e ha°, desired, and where the re was pl enty o f room, b ut refuse", to bury her under any c i rcumstances , on t h e groun d °' her being a Dissenter. Mr. Allies is a disciple of Dr. Pusey. , It was proved to the Rev. Gentleman that the deceased had be e n b a pti se d at that church' ; stall he declared that no Dissenter should mingle with his Church people. On the deceased's friends' re monstrating with him, and giving him to understand that he was bound to bury her, he said it should be at the extra' mity of the churchyard, where he had a place for tha t sort. The time for burial was near at hand, still Mr: Allies said she should not be buried among his people. The deceased's friends now went t o th e p ar i s h c l er k an d pat him his fees for breaking the ground; this done, they parties to dig a grave on the spot where deceased he wished to lie. Mr. Allies set men to work todig a grave at the extremity of the churchy ar d f or t h e corpse . The village was now all confusion, and hundreds were g thered to the spot ; Mr. Allies'ffriends went for the Dl' tester police, but they declined to interfere. The Be.' Gentleman endeavoured to prevent the grave being dug , but could not, nearly all appearing against him; he sea t for the local constables, they came, and were called on bf the friends of the deceased to do their best to preserve the peace. The graves were dug, the corpse was brough; to the churchyard, and there remained for some time. Mr. Allies was asked to come and officiate. Ile said' " Do what, you like with it;" and the coffin was brought to the grave which was dug by the friends, and by then interred, singing the hymn in the 55th page of the Wesleyan hymn-book. Mr. Allies now put on his soy plice, and went to the grave which he had caused to be dug, his footman acting as clerk, and then over the " tenantless " grave read the burial service.—Oxford Chrorticle. ESCAPE.—A party of the officers of the 44th Regiment visited the Milehouse races in a car riage and four, having hired a stage coach for the pur pose from Weakley's Hotel, Captain Pulliston actang as coachman, and one of the other officers filling the subaltern post of guard. On l eav i ng th e grou nd in the evening, the inside of the coach was devoted to the sergeants ; the back part to as many of the soldiers as could . posssibly find a resting place, or a bar to hang on at ; while the officers occupied the front part of the carriage.
