HOUSE OF LORDS, August 8. The House assembled this morning shortly after nine o'clock, for the purpose of delivering judgments in some of tho appeal cases that have been argued at the bar of the House during the present session. The Peers in attendance were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Cran worth, Lord Beaumont, and some others. TIIE WINDING-UP Acrs.—namtcr v. EUTTON.- HUTTON V. URIGIIT. It will be recollected, from the report of these cases, which appeared in our columns on Thursday last, that they were appeals against the decrees of the Vice-Chancellor Lord Cranworth, The cases were argued on Wednesday upon the earnest entreaty of the parties, in order, if it were possible, that they should obtain the opinion of their Lordships prior to the prorogation of Parliament. The LORD CIIANeiLLon now, after entering into a description of the qUestions at issue, said, that with out doubt these were most important cases in refer ence to any rules which might be laid down as to the extent of liability which was undertaken by a person who became a provisional committeeman and a shareholder in a railway company, and falling within the principle which that House had laid down by its decision in the case of Norris v. Upfill. The Noble.- and Learned Lord Cranworth and himself ,had used their best efforts with the view to dispose, of these im portant cases at once, but it had happened that they had been unable to accomplish tht.f, end with any thing like satisfaction to themselves. Therefore, not withstanding their unwillingness to arrive at such a conclusion, the cases must remain undermined until next session. It bad been the object in hearing the arguments in these cases to obtain a construction of the winding-up Acts, but that construction 'it appeared, their Lordships could not gain without the aid of the Learned Judges, all of whom were engaged in their respective circuits. The judgment must therefore stand over. Lord CRANWORTH was of the same opinion as that just expresaed by his Noble and Learned Friend the Lori Chancellor. The decision of their Lordships in these cases must be postponed for the present year. The questions which were involved in these cases were of the utmost nicety, and not without consider able difficulty; and, therefore, as the judgment upon them to be pronounced by that House was intended to constitute a guide to the Masters of the Court of Chancery in disposing of the numerous cases before them—cases which involved an immense amount of property—he concurred with his Noble and Learned Friend in the opinion that the cases demanded further consideration. _ Judgment postponed accordingly. NORMS V. COOPER. HUTTON V. THOMPSON. These two cases were also appeals arising out of an order made by Master Brougham under the winding up Acts, and had come before the House on appeal from a decree of Lord Cranworth, which had re versed the Master's order. The railway company in the first case, which was in this instance to be wound up, was the "Wolverhampton, Chester, and Birken head Junction Railway Company." In the course of the judgment now given by the House the Lord Chancellor went fully into the cir cumstances of both cases, and, as they are o± consider able importance to the railway interest, as well as to the public at large, we give an abridged summary of the facts in each case. in the first case, in the year 1845 a company was projected for making a railway communication between Birmingham and Birken head, and to effect that object it was proposed to raise a capital of 1,000,0001. by the creation of 50,000 shares of 201. each. The projected company was provisionally registered, pursuant to the terms i of the 7th and Bth of Victoria', c. 110, by the name and de scription of "the Wolverhampton, Chester, and Birkenhead Junction Railway Company." Plans and sections, with books of reference, were prepared, and, in conformity with the standing orders of Parliament, were deposited at the offices of the Board of Trade, and with the clerks of the peace of the several coun ties through which the said proposed railway was in tended to pass. A Parliamentary contract and sub scribere' agreement were prepared and engrossed, but neither of them was executed by any party, and the same were afterwards cancelled, in order to obtain a return of the stamp duty. The expenses of obtaining the said plans, sections, and books of reference, to gether with the charges of the several agents and others employed upon the business of the company, amounted to a sum exceeding 12,0001. Samuel Haines, of Edgbaston, in the county of Warwick, was called upon to pay, and paid, upwards of 5001. to wards the expenses of attempting to carry into effect the objects of the said company. Thomas Upfill, of Edgbaston, paid the same sum. Robert Wrightson, of Wymeswould, in the county of Leicester, also paid 4801. Thomas Harris, of Highfield-house, Edgbat ton, paid 4801. ; and Edward Cooper, of Henley-in- Arden, in the county of 'Warwick, likewise paid up wards of 4201. towards tlee same object. The said Samuel Haines, Thomas Upfill, Robert Wrightson, Thomas Ilarris, and Edward Cooper, were each also respectively sued for debts owing by the company, and an action is yet pending against Edward Cooper, at the suit of William Stoughton Vardy, one of the solicitors of the company. The company ceased to carry on business on the sth of January, 1846, and on the 26th of October, 1849, the said Samuel Haines, Thomas Upfill, Robert Wrightson, and Edward Cooper preferred their petition to the Lord Chancel lor, praying that the company might be dissolved and wound up under the provisions of the Joint-stock Companin' Winding-up Acts, 1848 and 1849, and that it might be referred to one of the Masters of the Court to wind up the affairs of the company under the said Acts. The petition was heard on the 3d of November, 1849, before the Vice-Chancellor cf England, when it was ordered that the said company should be dissolved and wound up, and that it should be referred to the Master of the Court to whom it was referred to wind up the Trent Valley, Chester, and Holyhead Continuation Railway Company, to wind up the affairs' of this company. Mr. William Brougham was the Master to whom the said matter eras ,referred, and the appellant was ap pointed the cfficial manager of the company under the provisions of the said Acts. Trie Master, on the 23,1 of June, 1851, made his certificate in the matter, and in his settlement of the list of contributories he included tile name of the present respondent, William Cooper, jun., of Henley-in-Ar den, in the character of an allottee, who had applied for and had had allotted to him 20 shares. The Master's certificate also admitted that he had thus in eluded the respondent's name in the list of contribu tories, notwithstanding it bad been proved to him that the required deposit of 21. 12s. 61 per share had not been paid, as required by the terms of the letter of allotment, nor had the respondent signed either the subscribers' agreement or Parliamentary cohtract, and that those documents had been regularly pre pared; yet they had afterwards been abandoned and cancelled for the purpose of obtaining the return of the stamp duty thereon. The respondent having re ceived an official intimation that his name had been placed upon the list of the "allottee contributories," on the 24th ult. appealed against the certificate of the Master. The appeal was heard before Vice-Chancel lor Lord Cranworth on that day, when it was or dered that the decree of the Master should be re versed, and that the name of the said 'William Cooper, jun., should be expunged from the said list of contributories of the company as such allottee., From this decree the present was the appeal from the official manager. In the second case, that of Hutton v. Thompson, the appeal was made by the official manager of the Direct Birmingham, Oxford, Reading, and Brighton Rail way Company, under the Winding-up Acts, against an order of Vice-Chancellor Lord Cranworth, which, as in the above case, went to reverse the cer tificate and order of Master Brougham, by which the name of Henry Thomas Thompson had been put o n the list of contributors. The main distinction between the two cases was this—that while the respondent Cooper did not pay any deposit, the respondent Thompson not only accepted the allotment so made to him, but paid the deposit on his twenty shares, amounting to 521. 105. This case presented an additional feature by the wording of the letter of allotment. The outline of the case was as follows :—A company was projected i n 1845 to construct a railway frem Birmingh am to Oxford, and thence to Reading and Brighton. The project was provisionally registered under the title and style of " The Birmingham, Oxford, and Brigh ten Railway." A prospectus having been issued in the accustomed form, the respondent Thompson, on the 10th of October, 1845, applied for an allotment of thirty shares. This application was responded to by an allotment of twenty shares, intimated by the fol lowing letter:— " Letter of Allotment. Not transferrable. "Direct Birmingham , Oxford, Reading, a n d B r i g hton Railway. _ _ " Capita, 2,000,0001. in 80,000 shares of 251. each. De posit, 2/. 12s. 6d. 46 No. of letter, 8. No. of shares, 100. " 46,,bluorgate• street, London, 18th October, 1845. " Sir,—The committee of mansg,,emsnt have allotted to you twenty shares in this undntaking, and I am di rected to request you will pay the deposit of 21. 12s. Gd. per sha6.amoußting to 521. 10s., into one of the un dermentioned banks on or before Friday, the 24th day of October, 1845, or this allotment will be null and void. " This letter, with the banker's receipt appended thereto, will be exchanged for scrip upon your present. in; it at the offices of the company, and executing the Parliamentary contract and subscribers' agreement, veliLli will lie at the above offices en and aftr the 27th of October, and notice will be given when the deeds will ba sent into the country. " I am, S:r, yc er ohedient servant. J. B. ItAYNEA, " To Henry Thomas Thompson, Esq." The respondent duly paid the deposit of 2/. 12s. Gd. per share on the seid shares to the bankers of the company. Of the 70,000 shares allotted the deposits were paid on 4,293 only, and the undertaking was consequently abandoned. The committee of manage ment, collectively and individually, paid large sums of money on account of debts properly contracted by them in discharge of their duties in the due prosecu tion of the undertaking, and other debts of the company are still remaining due and unpaid. On the 21st day of Dec tuber, 1849, an order was made by the Vice-Chancellor, on the petition of Stopford Thomas Jones, whereby it was ordered that the said " Direct Birmingham, Oxford, Reading, and Brighton Rail way Company " should be dissolved and wound up. Master Brougham, the Master in rotation, to whom the winding-up of the company was referred, on the 28th of January, 1850, appointed the appellant " official manager " of the company. The appellant made out and delivered to the master a list of the contributories of the company, and in such list he included the name of the respondent, Henry Thomas Thompson as a contributory, and as in " allottee of shares," who had paid his deposit in respect of twenty shares. The Master settled this list, and included the name of the respondent as a contributory in res pect of the twenty shares. The respondent there upon appealed from that certificate, and upon that mo tion Lord Cranworth reversed the direction of the Master, and ordered that the name of the respondent should be excluded from the list of contributories. The present was an appeal from that order, with a view to its being discharged, upon the ground that " the said Henry Thomas Thompson, according to the true con struction of the winding-up Acts, 1848 and 1849, is a contributory of the said company within the true in tent and meaning of the said Acts, or one of them." The LORD CHANCELLOR having now recapitulated the above facts of both cases, said that in the outset he would confine his remarks to the. case of Hutton v. Thompson, for if in that instance the shareholder proved not to be liable in the character of a contribu tor, he could not, a fortiori, be so in the case of Nor ris v. Cooper, as in the former case the shareholder had performed a most important act, namely, that of paying the deposit upon his allotment, a pro ceeding which had not come to pass in Norris v. Cooper. Now, the question which arose in this ewe was this,—was Mr. Thompson liable to have his name inserted in the list of contributories ? It had been argued, in maintenance of the proposi tion that he was so liable that, by his application for the allotment, and his subsequent payment of the deposits, he had made himself a member of the com pany, and therefore that, as such member of the com pany, he had thereby rendered himself liable to the expense of the concern. But the true facts of the case clearly went to prove that they failed to establish any such liability in the party. It was competent in Mr. Thompson to recover back the deposits which he had paid upon the allotment, and consequently it was impossible that he could be held responsible and liable to pay a sum of money under a proceeding in the Master's office, which money he had himself the power of recovering back by a suit at law. Now, as to the case of Hutton and Upfill, that case was not an authority which went to establish the liability ; but, on the contrary, it rather setup the reverse position, seeing that that case required that there should be two distinct acts performed iu order; to make out the lia bility, whereas in the present case there existed but one of two acts. Such being the case, then, he was clearly of opinion that the decree of the Court below was correct, and that it ought now to be affirmed by that House. Lord CRANWORTH was of the same opinion, and would not have added a word to what had fallen from his Noble and Learned Friend had it not been that he wished to have it distinctly understood that, on the rehearing of these cases in that House, he bad never doubted the correctness of the opinion and judg ment he had pronounced in the court below. He did not entertain the slightest doubt on the matter. This was quite clear and distinct, that a person who had accepted shares in any company was not to be held responsible or liable for the expenses which were in curred in the process of the formation of such com pany. Two statutes had been relied on as establish ing the liability ; but, in his opinion, those statutes altogether failed to produce that effect, for they merely afforded facilities for recovering in those cases where the liability was already in existence. The judgment of the Court below was then affirmed with coats. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Meander, 44, Captain► the Hon. H. Kepptsll, was paid off at Chatham, yesterday afternoon. Calypso, 18, Captain A. Forbes, is in Chatham Dock, progressing with her internal fittings, and being rigged by the people of the dockyard. PuRTSMOIITII, AUGUST B.—The Tiger steam-frigate is being dismantled. The Hempsyko convict-ship, at Spithead, has taken in 34 prisoners from the hulks in this harbour. She Rill take in others from Portland, and then proceed to Gibraltar. _ _ Dauntless, Captain Halsted, was taken out of No. 1 Dock to-day, and took in her lower masts, and got her tops overhead. To-morrow she is to be taken into the ship basin and the Centaur taken out. The Centaur, Termagant, and Simoom are to be taken into the steam-basin on Monday. The Fanny tender is to be taken into No. 1 Dock to have lightening conductors fitted; and we do hope the Admiralty will issue an order that all vessels carrying a mast or spar, may be fitted with the valuable invention of Sir W. Snow Harris. The cost is a mere trifle, the wear nothing; and if a mast is cut up or removed, the copper is only a fraction less in value; and it is surpris iog that the different boards, after acknowledging the value of Sir W. Snow Harris's plan, have not more ge nerally adopted his invention. We find in Portsmouth Dockyard the officers have a periodical lecture on the advantage of these conductors by the chemical lecturer, end we trust they will lose no opportunity of calling at tention to the advantag,es'of_the invention. Fairy was taken into the graving slip today, for the purpose of having conductors on Sir W. S. Harris's plan fitted to her; and we are pleased to remark that Mr. flay's composition was in an excellent state of preserv ation, with merely one spot in the wake of the chain cable. She required no cleaning, except on the streak at the edge of the water, where she is oiled to repre sent copper. There was growing upon the blades of her screw a complete coating of fine green grass, from two to five inches in length. Her bottom has not been touched since she was undocked on the Ist of May, and laid up in the four harbour for two months at her buoy. The board of Admiralty will arrive at Portsmouth on Monday next. They dine that day with the port ad miral, on Tuesday with the lieutenant-governor, on Wednesday with the admiral-superintendent, and on Thursday they give their annual dinner, at the George Hotel. The First Lord holds his levee, at the Royal Naval College, on the 12th and 13th instant. Major-General Lord Frederick Fitzclarence, &c., in spected the Portsmouth division of Royal Marines at Forton Barracks on Wednesday. The battalion, 700 strong, was formed in open column, and marched past in slow and quick time, with and without music or o drums;" the band being honoured by attending on her Majesty at Osborne. They then marched past in quarter distance column, wheeled to left, and deployed on front company; wheeled back into open column and in front, when the General rode through and afterwards minutely inspected the men's kits. His Lordship visited the bare ack-room, schools, and offices, and appeared satisfied with their order. Lord Frederick honoured Colonel Menzies end the (A tees with his company at luncheon; his brother, Lord Adolphus, being present. On taking leave, the Islejor-General rose, and, addressing himself to Colonel Mcezies and the officers, said, as it was the last time be should have the pleasure of meeting the officers as tile general commanding of the district, he begged, in con junction with Lord Adolpbus, to present to the officers of the Portemoth division of Royal Marines a bust of Nelson, which he believed they would appreciate, if pas sible, still more when he said as a work of art it was admired, and had been a favourite object with the Duke of Clarence at Bushy; and as he saw around him at the table officers of the corps now serving who had had the honour of participating in the victory of Trafalgar, he, at; well Lord Adolphus, was satisfied the bust of the im mortal hero would bo treasured and taken care of. Lord Adolphus rose, and concurred in all his brother had said. He knew the bust of Nelson was regarded with much interest by William the Fourth, and as his late Majesty ofteu said the Royal Marines were the right arm of the country, he was satisfied the officers would value what had been esteemed by his father, and no where could it be so well placed as with the officers of the Portsmouth division of Marines in the district his brother commended. It gave effect to this complimentary testimonial of Lord Frederick to observe that the fine pictures of George Hi. and William IV. aro the principal orna ments to the room where Nelson's bust will be placed. This appropriate gift induces the hope that the officers of the Royal Marines may ultimately see Lord Frede rick Fitz.darence " General of Marines." DEVONPORT, AUG. 7.—We are glad to state that Commodore Lord John Hay passed a more comfort able night on Wednesday, and is decidedly better this day. ' Camel lighter, Faber master, sai'ed this day with Mr. Biddlecombe and party for Pembroke, to navigate the Mosquito from Pembroke to Devonport. The mails for the Styx and Waterwitch arrived this morning, and were taken on board, but they have not started, although a fair wind now, five P.M. The commissions for the Virago and Grecian have not arrived; sailors are plentiful; they may both have splen did crews. PonTsmourrt, FRIDAY.—The Rodney, 90, to which Captain Charles Graham has been appointed, was com missioned at this port this morning. The pendant was hoisted on board the Blake hulk. The Sprightly steam tender, Master-Commander G. Allen, left this evening with supernumeraries for Devonport. APPOINTMENTS. Woor.wicn, Auo — . B.—Surgeons—John G.

It would nut ba a matter of surprise to some to hear that the Waterloo is ultimately fitted as a flag-ship for the Me diterrsneau station, and to carry th e d ag o f t h e ga ll ant officer who is to succeed Admiral Sir William Parker. SERIOUS ILLNESS OF THE REV. DR. FRENCH.--. The Galway Vindicator states that " on Tuesday the Right Rev. Dr. French, Roman Catholic Bishop of Kilinacduagh and lii fenora, was attacked with paralysis, and remains without hope of recovery. Dr. French was consecrated in 1825, and is in the 75th year of his age." (< y ‘' 7 % '/.. , A >4'• XI 444 I T r T , l ir 4 4 V r '' ,' . ~) „ ~. .

The question at issue was as to the construction which ought to be put upon the will cf a barrister of the name of Samuel Henry Pare, of Lower Berney?, in the island of Barbadoes. The case was argued in February last. The LORD CHANCELLOR now moved that in this case the judgment of the Court below should be affirmed. The judgment of the Court below wa3 then sfarmed. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Aug. 8. (Before Mr. Commissioner FANS.) IN RE J. LIMBIRD. To-day was fixed for the proof of debts and choice of assignees in the matter of this bankrupt, the sta tioner in the Strand. There was not a numerous at tendance of creditors. The bankrupt's whole liabili ties amount to about 1,300/.; the amount of assets are rather uncertain, the stock in trade having been recently sold under an execution for rent. Mr. Starkey, of the firm of Cripps and Starkey, wholesale stationers, Skinner-street, Snow-hill, was chosen trade assignee ; Mr. Whitmore is the official assignee ; Mr. Smith, Basinghall-street, solicitor to the fiat ; and Mr. Thomas appointed the ac countant. His HoNoun granted to the bankrupt an allowance of 2/. 103. a week. IN RE SLATE. This was a meeting for choice of assignees. The bankrupt was a bookbinder, of King's Head court, Hatton-garden. His debts and liabilities are esti mated at about 5,000/. Assignees were appointed, and Messrs. Harding, Pullein, and Co. appointed the accountants in the case by the court. IN RE WM. WATSON. The bankrupt, of the Barley Mow, Salisbury court, Fleet-street, applied for his certificate, supported by Mr. Linklater. There was no opposition. The accounts prepared by Mr. Thomas showed the debts to amount to 2,3001., assets about 2301. Mr. LINKLATER stated that the bankrupt had been in business many years, and had lately been strug gling with the knowledge and consent of his credi tors. He had done all he could to benefit his credi tors, and five or six of the chief ones, now present, would not (Meet to even a first-class certificate. There had been a loss on the realization of property, and he had been unfortunate in an action which had been brought against him respecting a sum of 5001. His sister was a creditor to the amount of 700/., and the bankrupt bad rendered his services to the aF signees. His Hortoun awarded a second-class certificate. IN RE JOSEPH CHARLES RIDGE. The bankrupt, a wine-merchant, carrying on busi ness at Great St. Helen's, applied for his certificate. Mr. Jer wood, Ely-place, appeared for the assig. nees and offered no opposition. His HONOUR observed that there was nothing at all for the creditors. The bankrupt explaiud that his present debts arose out of old transactions, and that his expenses had in no way exceeded his profits. His Honouß said that the bankrupt owed to credi tors upwards of 8001., independently of liabilities amounting to 1,4001., and there were no acsets. He could not grcnt higher than a common certificate. Third-class certificate accordingly. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—Croydon, August 8. The commission for the county of Surrey was opened on Thursday, and this morning business was proceeded with in both courts at ten o'clock, Lord Chief Justice Jervis presiding on the Civil Side, and Mr. Baron Alderson in the Crown Court. There are eighty-one causes for trial, nine of which are special jury cases. A great many of the others are undG fended, and the list, it is believed, will turn out very rotten. T'ne gaol calendar only comprises Pine cases, and all the charges are of the most ordinary description. Before Mr. B aron AL CROWN COURT. — ( DERSON ) _ _ _ Baron ALDERSON delivered - a very brief charge to the grand jury, merely congratulating them upon the lightness of the calendar and the absence of any charge of magnitude.

Paith,ehe said, must be kept with all, per sons, and no evidence- being offered, thilWould. say thst the prisoner was not guilty. The jury having returned That verdiet,Tais Lordship ordered ,the prisoner to be discharged, and he /vas at once set at liberty. Hester Eliza Sleigh, 50, a person of ladylike ap pearance, and the widow of a lieut enant in, her Bra jesty's service, surrendered to take her trial upen.a charge of feloniously forging and utteringu receipt for 19s. 3d., with intent to defraud. Me. Clarkson and Mr. Robinson were for the pros secution ; Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Creasy Were eog i i. sel for the prisoner. The nature of the offence imputed to the accused lady appeared to be that of forging the receipt of the collector of the assessed taxes for ithe amount for a half-year due at Michaelmas, 1850. It appeared that the prisoner lived with her son, in the village of Illazlemere and that the collector for that .district was a Mr. William Berry, who died some time in No vember last. The case for the prosecution was, that upon application being made to the prisoner for the taxes due at Lady-day, 1851, she asked for time, and upon her being told that the preceding half-year's taxes were in arrear, she asserted that she had paid the amount, and produced the receipt, which formed the subject of the present indictment. It seemed that the transaction had excited a good deal of interest in the village, and that subsequently to this indictment being preferred proceedings in connexion with the receipt were tried in the county court for the district, when the prisoner was examined as a witness, and she then swore positively that she had paid the money to the deceased collector on the 28th October, and stated that he wrote the receipt while he was standing outside the door of the house, she not being able to ask him in doors as usual, on account of a sick person being in her room. The prin cipal witness against the accused was the son o the deceased, who swore positively that he had applied to her for payment of the arrears of taxes after the date of the supposed receipt, and that she never suggested at that time that such a document was in existence. This witness, in cross-examination, however, admitted that there was an ill feeling subsisting between him and the prisoner, and it appeared that he was a party to legal proceedings that were still pending with a son of the prisoner. Several witnesses were examined, who expressed a belief that the signature to the receipt was not in the handwriting of the deceased ; but the reasons they gave for coming to that conclusion were of a very extraordinary, not to say absurd, character, and were very far indeed from being satisfactory. Mr. BALLINTINE made a most earnest and able address to the jury on behalf of the prisoner. He contended that her conduct throughout the entire transaction had been that of an honourable andrespect able person, and that there was not the slightest foundation for the charge that was made against her. With regard to any slight difference that might appear in the writing of the receipt to that of the deceased's ordinary writing, he submitted that it was satisfac torily accounted for by the circumstances under which it appeared to have been written—namely, while the deceased was standing up, and probably writing Upon a book or in some other inconvenient manner ; and he remarked upon the improbability that a person in the respectable position of the prisoner should have subjected herself to the serious conse quences that must inevitably ensue upon conviction for so paltry an amount. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to say that it appeared to him that the case had been got up by the son of the deceased partly from a feeling of towards the prisoner, and partly to prevent her from being a witness against him in the action which was still pending, and which if he should have a verdict pass against him would ne cessarily cause him serious expense. He concluded a very eloquent speech by calling upon the jury to acquit the prisoner and to enable her to return to her home with the same unsullied reputation which she had enjoyed up to the period of this transaction. At the close of the address of the Learned Counsel there were cries of "Hear, hear," and applause from the body of the court. His LORDSHIP immediately ordered that portion of the court to be cleared, observing that such unseemly proceedings could not for a moment be tolerated in a court of justice. The Learned JUDGE then summed up, and The jury immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. The prisoner was ordered to be immediately dis charged from custody. Nothing of interest took place in the Civil Side. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Monmouth, Aug. 7. The commission was opened here yesterday by Mr. I3aron Martin. The Crown Court was opened for business to-day at ten, and the Nisi Prius at twelve. In the latter court were four cases for trial, of which one was marked for a special jury—two of the others have engaged the attention of the Court all day. The calendar contained the names of 50 prisoners. Of these 2 are charged with perjury, 3 with forgery, 5 with burglary and housebreaking, 2 with assault and robbery, 2 with murder, 9 with stabbing and cutting and wounding, 1 with assaulting a constable, 1 with bigamy, I with rape, and the rest with larcenies and other cases commonly disposed of at sessions. A great number of cases have been disposed of to-day, ' but they have been, with one exception, of a trivial character. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice ErtLE.) :Margaret Williams, 32 ; Ann Lewis, 32 ; and Elizabeth Smith, 27, were indicted for having felo niously assaulted Daniel Tourbs, and stolen from his person one gold watch worth 101. and a silk um brella, at the borough of Newport, on the 22d of March last. Mr. Huddlestone conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Cooke defended Williams. The others were unde fended. The prosecutor was returning home late at night, and was accosted by two women, who left him, whereupon he was immediately knocked down, kicked, and rendered senseless. The neighbours came up, and he remained senseless for several hours. He was unable to identify any of the parties ; but a great many witnesses traced the possession of the watch and the umbrella to the several prisoners under cir cumstances of great suspicion within a day or two of the robbery. There was also some evidence to show that they were near the spot in question on the above night. The jury found them all guilty of receiving the goods knowing them to be stolen. His LORDSIIIP said he concurred entirely in the verdict. It was clear they were associated with a formidshle gang, and therefore it was necessary for the safety of passengers through the town of New port that they should be removed for a time out of the country, and the sentence would be that they should be transported for seven years. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Baron MARTIN and Common Juries.) BOND V. WALKER. ____._. ..,......._ Mr. Whately and Mr. Skinner appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Allen and Mr. Whitmore for the defendant. On the 4th of August last year the plaintiff was a passenger on the Newport and Tredegar mail coach from Tredegar to Newport. The defendant was the proprietor of the coach, and generally drove it him self ; but that day it was driven by a man named Wynne. The road lies through a mineral district, and is crossed by several tram-roads and a canal, which also run parallel to it fur some distance. Newbridge was the first stage from Tredegar, and there the coach changed horses. Wh • , -en the groom brought out a blind little mare the coachman told him to change her laarvess, as be was going her on the near side, acid added, " Walker tel's me h s e" won the near ill not goto drive sid e , but I have driven her myself and so has Charles Phillips." The be went awkwardly along th e r oa d, b e aring from the whee 11 to the pole. The coachman tried to keep her straight with his whip nud reins, and pulledto her side, up ft mo:e than once. 'roe ma re p u ll e d chivtly the and hede on the once pulled pulled the coach against the, - side. When she pulled ag had better change ainst hedge a passen ger th • said to the coachman, " You , us ” snare, or you will got upeet; and he anl/4 ', T , • -N , e.ed, "You need not fear . u , There is no anger--she will go very well direo 3 t i ~ ' As they were approaching that part of the road which was parallel to th e canal the said again, "If 3 ou do not same passenger before we get to the canal we shall get in." The coach mad replied, Ness" We must change the ma re w h en we get to Risco." Itisca is five or six miles fro m bridge. The passenger again observed, " It will take only the same time to change here as there." But the coachman „b e id, " Never mind —w e shall Toe coach went on tolerably well till it came to a tramway belonging to th e M onmouthsh i r e Railway ,/ C~ ~~i`~ l~~_ j c'Q-mac ~-cs;~' and Canal Company, when it suddenly-jer i ked and threw the coachman off and upon the horses, who being greatly frightened and entirely uncontrolled, ran sixty or seventy yards till the coach drove against the bank on the off tide, and was completely upset, and the passengers thrown off. The plaintiff had his leg broken, and the scalp of his forehead severely in jured. He was in a very dangerous state for a consi derable time. His life was at one time in danger. Erysipelas supervened on the injury to the scalp. He was still very unwell and lame, but the medical man hoped that he would in a short time completely re cover. In consequence of this accident the plaintiff lost the advantage of settling some accounts which he that day was going to settle; and another person who was employed for the purpose got no less than 2501. for the job. The issue turned entirely on the state of the rails on the tramroad : It was elicited on cross-examination of the plaintiff's witnesses that the rails on the tramroad were very high over the line of road, and they : were of opinion Unit the accident was attributable, cot to any negligence on the part of the de.fendent er his eneeinen, b&' to negligence on the part of the leionmoutbahixe Railway and Canal Com pany, in leaving the rails so high above the level of the carriage way ; nod that, in order to prevent any other accident of the like nature thet company should at once lover the rniht. - - Verdict for the defendeat.:::ll.

The complainant stated that'Aeiween twelve and one o'clock on the morning of the B.6th July, accom panied by Mr. Richards, M.P.,,he walked to the top of the' Havm-rket f eel the if me, of. Commons, when his friend called te therdefendantitodenow the amount of bia fare 4,9Jortland-pli(n'e s s;f? He was smoking a p i pe at the time, and he answered' " Only two shillings" w 1 icb was evidently one shilling more than he was entitled :to. Upon which they bade him "Good evening,' and were proceeding, when witness, having changed his mind, said, " Open the door, and when You , get to Portland-place I will pay you your legal fare. The defendant then placed himself before the door of the cab to prevent them getting in. Witness Oserving h e was f orge t t i ng himself, slightly place Chis hand upon his shoulder an d moved him aside, when he said " Don't push me, I won't be pushed by any person," insisting on keep ing the door closed. He next demanded that he would exhibit his badge, but he took no notice ; in consequence of which Mr. Richards went behind and took the number of his carriage. In answer to the charge, the defendant said he un derstood Portland Town was the place mentioned, to whieh 2s. would be the legal fare, is. 6d. beirg the fare to Portland-place, and he denied having to show his badge, which was as usual hanging out ' sith, his coat, and the gentlemen might have seen it if they took the least trouble. Upon examination of the defendant's licence, it ap peared he had been fined on a former occasion, and he was ordered to pay a penalty of 105. for each offence, with Gs. costs. Ia the course of the afternoon the Court was occu pied in disposing of charges against several pick pockets, who appeared to have been exceedingly active in St. James's Park and the streets adjoining during her Majesty's progress to the Houses of Parliament, each of whom was adjudicated to a punishment pro portionate to the offence proved. SOUTH IVARK. Yesterday, Ann Tilson, a poor emaciated looking female, was brought before Mr. Beadon charged with attempting to drown herself in the Rivet,3laames. John Gronow, a seaman, stated that while he was going on board his vessel at St. John's-stairs, Horse lydown, he heard a splash in the water, and at the same time a loud scream. On looking about he per ceived a female plunging about in the liver near the end of his boat. He instantly pulled his hat and coat off and jumped over, seized hold of her dress, and with considerable difficulty succeeded in getting her ashore. She was then insensible, but with the assist ance of a shipmate he conveyed her to a surgeon's in the neighbourhood, where the usual remedies were applied, and she was soon restoredlo'animation. It was nearly high water at the time, -firld had he not heard the plash in the water she must have been drowned. Mr. BEADON asked whether anything was known of the prisoner ? Police-constable 14.5 M replied that about a quarter of an hour previous he had seen her quarrelling with a man in the street, and at his in terference they walked away. While he was return ing on his beat ho saw lest witness and another man c - irrying insensible to a surgeon's. She was soon afterwards restored, and then he conveyed her to the police station. Mr. 13e.p.nori asked her what answer she had to make to the charge ? She replied that shc vo'.r, compelled to support her husband and children by shirtroaking. She worked nearly all day and night, and could not earn more than three or four shilliJgs a week, the most of which her husband took from her and expended in a public house. The children were consequently deprived of food, and when she remonstrated with him he de mended the small pittance which she had earned, and on refusing him he knocked her down. She then became desperate, and in a state of frenzy jumped into the river. She was now heartily sorry for what she had done, and would promise the magistrate never to repeat it. Mr. BEADON said she had made a very rash attempt upon her life, and ought to he thankful to the sailor who had saved her from a watery grave. Whatever treatment she might have received from her husband would not authortse her to commit suicide. There fore, he should order her to find bail for her future conduct. TIIAMES. ALLEGED FRAUDS IN TUE SALE OF HAT: Charles Brown, a farmer of Essex, appeared to a summons issued at the suit of David Jones, cow keeper, under the 36 Geo. 111., cap. 88, sec. 3, which enacted, that any person selling between the Ist day of June and the last day of August a bundle or truss of hay of that year's growth, under the full weight of 60 lbs., should, for every such truss that may be short, forfeit a sum not exceeding 55., and not less than 21. 6d. This was a somewhat similar case to that discussed on the previous day, when the salesman, however, and not the farmer, was the party charged and mulcted in the penalty of 3/. and costs. Mr. Pelham prosecuted, and Mr. Wells defended. The case excited considerable interest. The complainant proved that on the 16th ult. he purchased a load of hay in Whitechapel market. On being taken home it was found to contain 33 instead of 36 trusses, as specified by the Act, and on being weighed tight trusses were deficient in weight. He purchased the hay of Mr. Morteieu, who acted as agent for the defendant Brown, and sold the hay under the presumption that it was a full load. Mr. Wells said the defendant did not send it to market as a load, but merely what it was—namely, 33 trusses. Mr. Morteieu said that Mr. Brown did tall his (11orteieu's) clerk so; but in the whirl of business the clerk omitted to tell him of the fact. Mr. Wells contended, under the 14th section, that the hay should be weighed in scal or weihts ptro_ vidcd by the clerk of the market or by g the 01 1 gatherer. Mr. INGHAM, however, overruled this, by stati nglwfui that the section only specified that it shou ld for the complainant to have it so weighed. ere, be paid that if compulsory, and then th e consequences hwould It was was not it wascompulsory, not due weight, th e difference him by the sell e r f or th w ith.
