ROSE.—BRBACII OF PROMISE or MARRIAGE• Tois.was a special jury case. It was an action for breach of promise of marriage brought against a me dical gentleman well known in Liverpool. The jurors had been summoned for that morning, but on the con clusion of the patent case, they were told that they would not he required. Thus wire the lovers of scandal and gossip des tined to a double disappointment. An action for false imprisonment occupied the Court the remainder of the day. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WiGur - atAN.) - .Robert Lees was charged with the Manslaughter of an infant, named Rizabeth C:)rrie, by negligently and unskilfully administering to her an overdose of laudanum. Mr. Blair prosecuted; the prisoner was unde fended. _ _ It appeared that on Sunday, the 4th of August, las , the wife of John Corrie, who lives in North street, Liverpool. went with ano'her woman to a public-house in Dale-street, for a glass of ale, carry ing with her her infant, which was seven months old. There she saw the prisoner, who observed to her that her child was not well. She said it had been suffering for some days from a bowel com plaint, and the prisoner then said he would give her a prescription fur the child, which would relieve it, if she liked. She assented to this-, and, the prisoner dic tated a prescription, which a young woman present wrote down, "3 oz. of chalk, loz. of gum arabic, and 2 drachms of ►audanumn. ,Two teaspoonstul to be given as a dose." This Mrs. Corrie got made up at a druggist's shop, and administered one dose to the child, which, according to the evidence of the me dical witnesses, would contain fourteen drops of laudanum. The result was that the child became drowsy and died eight days afterwards. In the opinion of the surgeon who made the post mortem examination of the child, it had died from the effects of a narcotic poison. Toe prisoner in defence alleged that he had never told Mrs. Conic to put laudanum in the prescription, but " rhea," that he had no intention to injure the child, and that he had di,pensed medicine for' twelve years and had never committed a mistake. - - His LORIMUIP, i❑ summing tip, said the prisoner appeared only to nave acted from motives of kindness; but if they were of opinion that he had acted with negligence, wane of ',kill, presumption, and igno- • ranee, they ought to find him guilty. The child had also died at a longer than the ordinary period after the administration of a narcotic poison, and it was therefore for them to consider whether or no the dose administered to it had caused its death. The jury found the prisoner NOt Guilty. Thomas Sexsmith was indicted with two men named Lever and Green/or having, on the 18th of April last, discharged a loaded gun at John Wainwright and Richard Redhead with intent•to murder or to do some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Monk appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Pol lock defended Sexsmith; and Mr. James the other prisoners. It appeared that Wainwright and Redhead, the two prosecutors are gamekeepers to the E ►rl of Ihrby, and on the night of the 18th of April last they were out with another keeper near Stockbridge-lane, watching for poachers. Whilst there a pheasant flaw out of a plantation near them, and immediately after wards they met Sexsmith, armed with a gun, and fol. lowed by a dog, and three or four other men armed with' sticks. Wainwright stopped Sexsmith, when immediately there was a cry raised of " Go into him ; shoot him." Sexsmith immediately levelled his gun at Redhead, and fired, cutting a hole through his hat, but doing h'm no further injury. Sexsmith was im mediately seized hold of, the othet men escaping. Toere befog no evidence, fixing the identity of Lever and Green, they were acquitted by direction of his Lordship. Mr. POLLOCK then, addressing the jury on behalf of Sexsmith, contended that if he had intended to murder or do Redhead any bodily harm, there was nothing to have prevented him shooting him dead; htv that the guu had evidently nut been pointed at him. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to be tranPported for seven years. It is expected that the criminal business of the assize will tcrrninnte to-morrow. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (B: fore the Costmosi-SERGEANT.) William Cooke, the lir, secutor in the case which eared in our Af ter nocn E d i tion o f yes t er d a y, was c harged with assaulting, Robe r t Hitchcock, one of the defendants who bad just b een acqu i t t e d. In this case the prosec u t or and t h e f ou r other men app included with him in the former indictment were examined es witnesses, and according to their evidence Graham, the broker, went to the house on the day in question for the purpose of levying the distress, annt in consequence of some former violence that had taken place on a farmer occasion, be took Banks, Harris, and Hitchcock with him, in order to prevent peace, am also,ndm it wasetingAl alleged iltonbv the ythat r of the attem wing to m a k e t h e di stress t h ey f oun d t barricaded, an d t h e defendant. who wai in h t yard, ordered th em off, and without any a tst iacebreachoy , n form houseathrtheir i accompanied provocation threw two bricks at Hitchcock,. and he was knocked down; and after this the defendant took up a bill-hook and threatened to cut them With it, at the same time using very bad language, if they did not leave the place. The bill-hook was taken from him, and the witnesse s st at ed that the defendant then took up a large hedge stake and struck Hitchcock a violent blow with it ; and Harris said that'the defend ant also struck him with the stick and broke one of his little fingers. Mr. PARRY, for the defence, endeavoured to show that the distress had not been legally carried out, and that the defendant had used no more violence than was necessary to expel persons who, he contended, stood in the position of trespassers. The defendant received a very good character for quiet and general good conduct. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty; an d , and the latter The. COMMON-SERGEANT said he would c ons id er what sentence ought to htepronounced. Charles Pound and William Langford Jenkins, two very per youngsostsofremspaeoc,tasoblrerenadpepr appearance, atno take take th e i r tr i a l ce a for a misdemeanour in having unlawfully obtained 'a large sum of money f rom William Newman by false pretences. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Huddleston conducted the prosecution ; Mr. E. Jame', Q•C e and Mr. Parry, defended Jenkins, and Mr. Clarkson appeared for the other defendant. William Newman, the prosecutor, deposed that he was a colour manufacturer i n Ch art - street, Buxton. ' At the latter end of last December the defendant Pound came to his house, accompanied by witness's nephew, a person named Try, and he believed he acted as his solicitor, and he was introduced to him in that capacity. Upon this occasion Pound produced a bill of exchange for 451.95., which appeared to be accepted by the other defendant, and asked witness to discount it. He asked who Mr. Jenkins was, and the defendant replied that he would . soon show him who he was ; and he pulled a paper out of his' pocket which he said was an extract from the ,will of Mr. Jenkins's father, and which he had himself obtained from Doctors'-Commons, and he at the same time stated that Mr. Jenkins had been one of the largest ironmasters in existence, and be read from the will a statement to the effect that his son, IVIP. Langford Jenkins, was to receive 20,000 1 . absulutelyupon the sth of April, 1850, when he would come of age. Upon the faith of this representation, witness cashed the bill, deducting five per cent. for interest, and shortly after this he went to No. 7, Stockwell-common, where he saw both the defendants, and Pound intro duced the other to him as " the rich young gem . , ,, and he at the same time said tleit he . had been articled lo an attorney, but, es he was corning into this large property, he very seldom atter del his office, About the 10th of January Jenkins called upon Mtn and "' - l wanted him to edvance 10/.or-121., and he tbene‘peke to him about hi§ expect ition of the 20,000/.,. and he said it was true, and that he should receive the amount at the time mentioned. After this Jenkins accepted a bill for 2001, and witness gave him 1001. in cash and made up the pipount by some of his own tradesmen's bills, which were paid when they arrived at maturity. There were Other money and . bill trans actions between them, and witness eventually be came responsible to the 'amount of 780/. During these proceedings the defendant Pound upon one oc casion told him that when Jenkins obtained his for tune they intended to' set up as solicitors iripartner ship, and that' he should get him passed fur that purpoie. Cross-examined by Mr. JAMES—Iie was not a bill discounter, and was not in the habit of discounting bills. Ceuld not say exactly when he first saw Jen kins, but thought it was in the beginning of January. Di I not know that he was not of age till April,lBso, until he , diseovered that the bills he had given were of no value. Witness's son kept his accounts, and he drew some of the bills. He was not of age at the rime he did so. The 1001. cash' which he gave for the 2001. bill was made up partly of the 121. he had advanced before, and of two bills for 50/. and 461. He only deducted 5 per cent. for interest. After this he got another bill for 2001. from Jenkins. For this hill he gave him cash at different times, and also paid bills to tradesmen for him. He mid 80/. for wine. Was quite sure he had 20/. or 251. in each in part payment of the amount of this bill. Witness also gave him his own acceptance fur 1001. The value of the bills he hid from Jenkins was altogether 7001., and he would smear that out of this amount more than 120'. in cash was given to him. .Ha accom• papied Jenkins to a coachmaker's, and purchased a phaeton for him, for which he gave 52/. 10s. Tois was part of the consideratidn for the bills he had given. That phaeton was now in wit ness's possession. Jewellery to 'the amount of 401 was also part of the consideration. Witness's son ac 'companied Jenkins to the jeweller's shop when the purchase was made. Witness did not recommend Jenkins to come and reside near him at Hoxton, but he believed he took a house in the neighbourhood, and witness recommended him a person to furnish it. Was sure he did not ask the prisoner_ to put his name to three bills for 1001. each in order to raise money to set his son up in business, but he knew afterwards that it had been done. He believed that his son drew upon Jenkins. He was under age at the time, and 'ett no means of paying the bills. Witness put his name to the bills, and a friend of his, named Wilson, • who was a bill casher, dis counted' two of them, and he believed 60 or 70 per cent. was charged for the interest. He had to pay these two bills when they became due. Witness kept all the money that was • the produce of the two bills, but he had to make up the difference when they became due. He made all the advances in conse quence of what Mr. Pound said about the will, and he only discovered that the statement was false upon subsequently going to Doctors'-commons and ex amining the will himself. By Mr. CLARKSON—He was aware that Mr. Pound had been acting for his nephew in trying to obtein some propeety to which he considered himself entitled, hut he did not know that the 45/. 9s. bill was for the use of his nephew. He never paid any money to Jenkins in the presence of Pound, but he told him of it afterwards. Re-examined—Witness bad no advantage from any of the transactions with the tradesmen, and he had never received a farthing of the money back which he had advanced. • John Newman, the son of the prosecutor, corrobo rated his evidence with regard to the original state ment made by Pound when the 451. 9, bill was offered for discOunt. He also said that he was present when Pound introduced Jenkins as "the rich young gent.," and he at the same time said that he would be answerable for any money or goods that might be advanced to him, and would take care they were paid for when he came of age. The witness also stated, that Jenkins during the transaction told him that his father had been so kind to him that he would allow him to draw upon him for 3001. to set him up in business, and he drew three bills for 1001. each ; and his father gave Jenkins his acceptance for 3001. in exchange. Upon being cross-examined, the witness said this 3001. bill formed a portion of the amount of which his father represented himself to have been defrauded, but it had never been presented for payment. He kept his father's accounts, and he could state that 3861. 12s. 61. had been advanced in hard cash to Jenkins. Witness was not of age when he drew upon Jenkins, and he knew also that he . was not of age. He took the bills to Mr. Wilson's to be dis counted, but he refused to have anything to do with them unless his father put his name to them. His father did endorse two of the bills, and Wilson then gave 1901. for them. Jenkins had none of the money, but he had his father's acceptance, which was as good as money. He had signed bills for his father as Newman and Co., end as Newman and Son, be fore he was of age. He, was nut a partner, but he understood he was to have a share of the profits of the business. In answer to further questions; the witness said he was now only 20 years o'd, and he was married in Piccadilly about two years ago, but had been separated from his wife for 16 months, and he had not given anything towards the support of his sslfe, and did not know bow she was supported since they separated. Re-examined—His wife was 19 years old when he married her, and after the marriage he found out something about her that was very unpleasant, and left her in consequence. He always had the authority of his father when he accepted bills. The will of the father of the defendant Jenkins was then put in, and it appeared that the personal pro perty was sworn under 8,0001. There was, however, a copyhohi estate, thu value of which did not'appear, hut the whole of the property was devised to the de fendant. It appeared, however, that the property had been made the subject of a Chancery suit, which was still going on. Evidence was likewise adduced to show that Pound was not an attorney. Mr. JAmas then addressed the jury for the de. fendant Jenkins, and, in the course of a forcible and able speech, he contended that there was not the least evidence in the cause to show that he had been guilty of fraud, and he contended that all the facts tended to show that the prosecutor and hie son, being aware that he would be entitled to property to a considerable amount, had taken advantage of his youth and inexperience, and having got him into their power in the first instance, had induced him to put his name to bills to a large amount, hoping, in the result, to obtain possession of the whole of his fortune, and, finding they were foiled, they now sought to make the criminal law of the country the means of furthering their unworthy purposes. The Learned Counsel then called the attention of the jury to the precise form of the charge, and contended that there was nothing in the case to show that any false representation had really been made, for it appeared that the personal property of the defendant's father amounted to 8,0001, and there was an estate which, for ell they knew to the contrary, might beworth more than 20,000/. The prosecutor also, he said, might have seen -the will at any time ; and it was perfectly clear that what he did was done with his eyes open, and that his only object was to pan i c) er to the extravagance or necessities of this young, man, intending eventually to turn the transaction, whgn he had got him completely into his power, to his,' own benefit, by getting possession of the greatest portion . of his property. Mr. CLARKSON also addressed the jury for Bound, particularly calling their attention to the faOt that this defendant was not proved to have takeit any share in the different bill transactions, or to lir& re ceived one farthing of the money that had beta ad vanced by the prosecutor. The COMMON-SERGEANT summed.up, and The jury, after a short deliberation, retarned'a ver dict of Not Guilty. COUNIT COURT, A (Before Mr. Serjeant MANNING.) ABBOT V. MR. MURRAY—A. MYSTERIOUS CAE. The plaintiff, a cowkeeper, of Jubilee.streectlile end, sought to recover the sum of thirty slillings from the defendant, a butcher, of Limehouse-finds. The Learned JUDGE, having asked fur the pirticu lars of the demand, the plaintiff assured his Ilonour that the public had better not be enlightened. 11 His HONOUR—Perhaps you have no objection to enlighten the Court ?—(Laughter.) The plaititiff— I would rather not expose the profession—l Loud Daughter)—but I suppose I must admit that tcew was sold a butcher for bad beef—(Laughtert-Lut your Honour it is customary. His Hosonn—What became of the cow ; vas it slaughtered ? The plaintiff fenced at the q tion, and the defendant was silent. A voice—Sauseges, oh I .—(Laughter.) The Learned JUDGE, in calling upon the *defen dant for an answer to the suit, elicited that tir cow might have been disposed of at Cow-cross. • His HONOUR—For what purpose? The iatiff and defendant again hesitated to answer. The Learned JUDGE observed that it w clear the defendant had purchased the beast, and at he had a right to pay the amount agreed for.— edict for plaintiff., • 10. 20, [PRICE SD. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO US 8. CAUTION TO RAILWAY FORTERB ' .—Robert Sears was charged by a gentleman, named Abraham, with having used language calculated to excite to a breach of the peace. The complainant had accompanied some ladies to the London terminus of the Blackwell Railway;of which the defendant. appeared. to be a porter. The defendant was asked by the complainant to assist in putting luggage in one of the carriages, and instead of performing aVhat was 'considered to be his duty, used language of the 'most revolting kind, and upon being expostulated with, exhausted .his well-stored vocabulary of abuse in the presence of the ladies. The defendant upon being called upon to answer. the serious charge, gave 'Alderman 'Gibbs a taste of his quality by loudly asserting that " gentle• man, as he called himself, was telling nothing but the grossest falsehood, that the only civil and respect-. able person present upon this occasion seas himself, and that accordingly he ought himself to he the ac cuser, instead of the accused." Alderman Ginn; (to the defendant)—iltive you gt an witnesses to prove that vou gave no offence ? Defendant—l was there myself, and when he ordered me to take his luggage to the carriege, 1.t.01d him to take it . himself. He then used the most saucy lan guage, and I never said a word in reply. All I can say,is, than a more false man never lived. Mr. Abrahatn—lt is impossible that I could pro duce witnesses upon the occasion. They. are ladies, and the situation in which placed at the time oat, therefore, the more intolerable. A gentleman was near us at the time, and he cried cut to me, " Why do you not knock him down ?" Ahiernazn Gtnns—l suppos, the defendant does not I.Aong to the company? Defendant—No; I am a drover. I was never so much insulted in my life.—(Laughter.) Alderman Gums—Defendant, you must pay the fine of 204., or go to prison for fourteen clays. De fendant—What I pay 20s. ? Not a bit of it ; I'll go to prison. I was the person as was insulted, and I won't pay a mag. The defendant was then taken away, and continued to declaim against the sentence in the loudest tone while he was within the hearing of the benCh. Mr. Abraham said the fellow had run about the luggage of the paggengers as if he had been an autho rised servant, and it was admitted by thu officers of the company that he was occasionaiiy employed on the line. BOW-STREET. THE CASE OF FOCUSSING AND RODIIERr,•••./. Cot• ter, alias Cole, was re examined, charged with boons sing. and the robbery of 3001. Mr. Peter Thwaites, a fruit salesman in Covent garden-market, 'said that on the'afternoon of Yridsy week last, he entered the Mercers' Arms public house, Mercer-street, Long-sere, and there met the prisoner and several other persons, who were drink ing in front of the bar. He entered into conversation with them, and ultimately called for some liquor for which he paid. He had then in his possession a can vais bag, containing two 1001. notes, two cheques for 1001., and about 201. in gold. He afterwards called for a bottle of wine, and he had scarcely drank a glass of it when he became insensible, and when he recovered he found himself very ill in bed at his re sidence. All his money was gone. Other witnesses proved finding the prosecutor in front of the bar of the Mercer's Arms, quite insensi- nle, and with his pockets turned inside out arri all his money gone. The prisoner was observed sitting by he side of the prosecutor, and at female on the other side, previous to his becoming insensible. The pri ooer and his companions were also seen running to A cab, which appeared to be waiting for them, and one said, " Ilave you trot the money ?" and another replied, "Yes." They were pursued, but all eocaped with the exception of the prisoner, who was appre hended in a house in Endell-street soon afterwarth. Mr. Norton, a eolicitor, attended for the pro3ectx• 'ion, and s.ald since the last examination the cheques and a portion of the money had been found by a boy in the neighbourhood. In consequence of the pub- iicity give; to the case through the medium of the , lewspapers, the money and cheques were restored to the prosecutor. The notes have not yet been found. lie would ask the magistrate for a further remand, as some information had been obtained by the police, A'hich would probably lead to the recovery of the other property, and the apprehension of the prisoner's companions. Remanded for a week. PEOSECUTIONS BY THE SOCIETY FOR THE Sur- PRESSION or VICE.— William Wynne, keeper of a print shop, 34, Holywell-street, Strand, appeared upon a summons, under the Vagrant Acts, at the in stance of the Secretary for the Suppression of Vice, for unlawfully and wilfully causing a certain inde cent print to be exposed in his shop window, to which he pleaded guilty. The defendant, in pursuance of the advice of his counsel, threw himself on the mercy of the Court, and solemnly promised that the offence should not be repeated. Mr. HENRY having ascertained from Mr. Prichard, the secretary, that such a course would be agreeable, ordered the defendant to put in hail, himself 801., and two sureties in 401. each, to he of good behaviour for twelve months, with the condition, that all such prints and publications in his possession should be given up to the secretary, who should be allowed to examine the stock for that purpose, and with a caution, that the full period •f three month•, with hard labour, should be inflicted, if upon sufficient proof, such another charge should at any future time be brought against him. Henry May, who keeps a shop at No. 17, in the same street, was also summoned for exposing, or causing to he exposed, a similar publication, and the case having been fully made out, ke was sentenced to imprisonment for three months in the House of Cor rection, with hard labour. The defendant was then removed in custody, and in a few minutes Mr. Prichard returned to the court to inform the magistrate that a bookseller, who had become surety for the defendant Wynne, had loaded a cart with all the prints and publications, for the pur pose of conveying them away, instead of allowing them to be destroyed, in obedience to the order given by the Court. Mr. HENRY directed the officer to request his at-- tendanee, to explain hia conduct ; and on his arrival, he said he was in the book trade, that he had pur chased the stock, as waste paper, for 151., as the re ceipt produced would show; besides, the greater part of the goods were of the most moral character. Mr. HENRY considerel the society was entitled to have the papers delivered up to the police, and if that Wii3 not done, and the money returned, he should most certainly order a conviction. The bail said he would maintain hisright in defiance of every person, the property. being his, and left thq court. vv Mr. HENRY being subsequently consulted upon the subject, said he should decline giving any advice, and remarked that such were the fruits of entering into any compromise with such persons., MARYLEBONE. ROBBERY BY A. YEET RESPECTABLE PERSON.— YeAterday Mr. Simpson Gordon, residing at No. 2, Abbey -terrace, St. John's-vvoed, was placed at the bar before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Long, charged with having stolen 3 lbs. weight of bacon, valu e is. 10Id., the property of Mr. William Merrill, No. 3, New Church-street, Lisson-grove. Mr. Cooper, solicitor., attended for the prisoner, many of whose friends were in court during the pro ceedings. • Alfred Merrel (brother to the prosecutor) deposed that on the previous evening between 9 and 10 oclock, the , prisoner entered the shop and asked for 31. worth of eggs. They were handed to him, and after he had paid for them he tasted some Bd. butter, of which he purchased half a pound. He put the eggs into his pocket, and opening a handkerchief laid it down upon some bacon upon the window board, when he, put the butter into it and then quitted the place. A piece of bacon was immediately missed, and prose cutor feeling satisfied that the prisoner must have stolen it, sent after him his lad, who presently re turned with the information that prisoner had told him he had paid for the bacon, and that it was " all right ;" he, prosecutor, then ran out and called "police," and prisoner was taken into custody. Flanigan, 136 S, said that he etopped the prisoner as he was running very fast along North-street, LisSon-groee, and upon opening his handkerchief he found a piece of bacon therein ; he, prisoner, was then conveyed to the station-house, where he was locked up, and on the way from thence to this court he offered to give witness 51. if he would make it up with the prosecutor. • Mr. Cooper, who could not struggle against the olear eviden'co which had been adduced, remarked that the prisoner was a very respectable person, and I was willing to make any reparation in his power. 1 The prisoner was fully committed for trial.

This naval force is stated to be divided into fire squa drons; the Baltic squadron consists of about 4,000 men, including the artillery; but the paper states that the crews are not of the very best quality of men, and amongst them are many Jews from Poland. [We believe this force is under-stated, and that the Russians have more three and tao.deckers in the Baltic. and Black Sea fleets, and that they have nearer 50 than, 30 steamers. Moreover, we have seen some of the Bus.. :sian ships well and ably mlnned, and that there are a grent many Bothnians and Finlanders among the crews.. I—Herald.] .THE LOSS OXp,LIFE IN THE MERSEI.
