Mr. Paxton says, turn it into a winter garden and promenade ; the east will only be twelve thousand pounds per annum, and the building may be made to pay this without difficulty, and Mr. Paxton Is right, if it were opened one day a week at a shilling admission, an .l thrown open free the other five ; there would be thousands prefer the shilling day, and the admittance would create ample funds. There would be a consideration for the enjoyments of the million in this project. and there should be no condition but cleanli ness and order to entitle any body to use it. As working men dress now, nobody can object to their admission, since E. MOSES and SON have reduced the price of clothing to meet the means of the poorest class, every one can dress well. It is not merely the cheapness, but the quality also, that enables the working man to dregs well. One suit of clothes will serve him as well as half a dozen use,' to last, and look better all the time; look at all the varied classes who daily visit c _ e the u n P Palace, from from the man of fashion to the labourer, and the 1,1.. a. majority dressed appropriately in the clothes made by E. MOSES and SON, which, for taste and style, durability and neat ness,..‘. can riot be surpassed by anybody at double the price.

This insolvent, a clerk in the Postage Stamp Depart ment of Somerset-house, petitioned under the Protec tion Act, and being in custody, now sought to be dis charged under the sixth section of the 7th and Bth Vic toria, chap. 96. Ho had but one creditor, a Mr. Harris, the holder of a bill of exchange for 221., upon which the insolvent's name appeared as indorser. Mr. Dowse appeared for Mr. Harris to oppose the ap plication, and M r. Sargood supported. The insolvent, upon being examined, said he had never seen the bill upon which he had been sued until it was shown him to-day. A person named Phillips had called upon him, but had asked no questions about the bill, nor shown it to him. He had a brother, named Thomas Pearce, who was the acceptor, and first heard of it when served with a writ at the suit of Mr. Harris, when he (insolvent) told Phillips who served it the endorsement was not his signature. lie gave the writ to his brother, who said his (insolvent's) name was to the bill without his sanction, and the action should be settled. He never knew of any action being carried on against him until he received a communication from Mr. Norton, his brother's attorney. Mr. SARGOOD then objected to the opposing counsel going into the merits of the case on the present occa sion, and contended that the examination ought to be confined simply to the question of jurisdiction and accu curacy of the schedule. Mr. Dowss insisted that he had a right to show that the insolvent was not entitled to have the protection of the Court, and quoted a case decided by Mr. .Commis sioner Phillips in support of his argument. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER, after referring to "Macrae's Practice of Insolvency," and communicating with Mr. Comminissioner Law, said he should allow the exami nation to proceed. The insolvent said he never authorised any person to put his name to this or any bill. Mr. Phillips, a clerk to Mr. Lawrence Levy, was called, and swore that he saw the insolvent at Somerset house and showed him the bill, when he said the en dorsement was his handwriting. Mr. E. L. Levy, the opposing creditor's attorney, produced the proceedings in the action, to which a plea was entered denying the endorsement; but subsequently an admission of the handwriting was given by Mr. Norton, the defendant's attorney. Mr. Hill, the chief of the department in which the in solvent is employed, was called, and, upon being shown the bill, said he did not believe the endorsement to be the insolvent's. The insolvent, in reply to the Court, said upon his oath the signature was not in his writing. He never authorised any attorney to plead, nor did he know of any action being proceeded with against him by the plaintiff until he was arrested for 431. 3s. 4d. Mr. Norton, having been sent for by the direction of the Court, said he was an attorney in Gray's Inn-square, and acted for the insolvent in the action brought against him by Mr. Harris. He gave a consent, admitting the handwriting of Charles Pearce upon the bill. He re ceived his original instructions from Thomas Pearce, who was sued upon the same bill, and who instructed him to appear for himself and his brother (the insolvent). It was upon Thomas Pearce's authority that he admitted the insolvent's handwriting. The CHIEF COMMISSIONER said ho had required Mr. Norton to attend, for if what had been imputed to the insolvent by the other side had been true he would be a most worthless and profligate man; but, before arriving at such a conclusion as that, evidence of tho most con firmatory character must be produced, and that had not been done in this case ; consequently he should grant the prayer of the insolvent and order his discharge. He was bound to add, for the sake of the insolvent, that the objections urged against him had utterly failed. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT.—Chelmsford, July 23. CROWN COURT—(Before Lord Chief Justice JERVIS ) John Cornish, 29, labourer, Charles Eve, who surren dered to take his trial, Jesse Griffiths, 24, and George Rowe, 32, were indicted—the two first-mentioned pri soners for stealing Bank of England notes and gold to the amount of nearly 5001., the property of her Majesty; Griffiths as an accessory before the fact to the commis sion of the felony; and Rowe with having feloniously received the priperty,knowingit to have been stolen. In other Counts of the indictment the offence was charged in a different form, and the property was said to belong to the principal officers of her Majesty's Ordnance. Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Bodkin conducted the case for the Crown. Mr. Ballantine defended Cornish; Mr. Parnell de fended Eve; and Mr. Hawkins was counsel for the other two defendants. A great many witnesses were examined for the prose cution in this case, and the trial occupied the greater part of the day, but the nature of the charge will be better understood by a narrative being given of the facts than if the evidence of the witnesses were reported in detail. The robbery in question was com mitted at the Government Gunpowder Manufactory at Waltham Abbey, on the evening of the Bth of April, and it appeared that two of the prisoners, Cornish and Eve, had been employed about the establishment, and were of course aware of the nature of the arrange ments connected with it. It would seem that it was the custom at the end or the commencement of every month for the principal storekeeper, Mr. Henry Topping, to be in possession of a considerable sum in cash tor the pur pose of paying the wages and expenses connected with the manufactory, and on the Bth April he had a sum of nearly 5001., composed of 201. bank notes, sovereigns, half-sovereigns, and silver, which ho placed in an iron safe in his office and locked it up, and went away about half-past seven in the evening. The next morning it was tound that the office had been broken into, that the iron safe had been forced by means of gunpowder, and that the wole of the money tied been abstracted, and the circumstances left no doubt whatever that the robbery had been planned and carried into effect by some persons connected with the establishment. Information was im mediately given to the police authorities, and Inspector Lund, one of the detective police, was sent down to in vestigate the matter, and the result was that all the prisoners were taken into custody and commit ted for trial; but the case appeared so slight against Eve, that the magistrates allowed him to be at large upon his own recognisances to appear and take his trial. The evidence against the other pri soners was of this character:—lt appeared that about a week after the robbery a man named Lane, who was ' also employed at the manufactory, went to the officer and told him that he was at a public-house at Waltham, called the Compasses, kept by the prisoner Rowe, shortly after the robbery, and that he saw Grifiths there, and he told him that Cornish and Eve had committed the rob bery, and that he had given Cornish a chisel for the purpose of assisting to break open the office where the money was kept. Lane also stated that after he had bad this conversation with Griffiths, Rowe came up to him and asked what Griffiths and him had been talking about, and he then said that Cornish had promised to let him have the notes, and that he was to go to London to get them changed, and that ho should get 151. for each of the 201. notes. He asked Rowe subsequently whether he had got the notes, and he said he had not, and he thought that Cornish was afraid that if he got them he would stick to them; but he promised Lane that if he did get them he should have his share. This witness also stated that Rowe afterwards told him that Cornish had given him the notes, and that he had been to London and had changed two of them, and had received 301. for them, which he said he intended to keep, and he should return the remainder of the notes to Cornish. Upon Eve being apprehended he was asked whether he had received anything from Griffiths before the rob bery, and he said that Griffiths had given him a chisel, but when he heard of the robbery he was frightened and threw it into the river, and upon a search being made a tool of that description was found in the bed of the river. This was tile principal confirmatory act of the statement of Lane with regard to the prisoners Eve and Cornish, and it appeared that the statement was not made by Lane until after a reward of ea had been offered. With regard to the prisoner Rowe, it was proved that upon the officer going to his house he found him in a loft over the stable, and be took him into custody and searched him, and found some notes and other securities in his pocket, but nothing referring to the present charge. The officer inquired whether he had any more muney, and he said there was some in his bed-room. He was then asked whether he had any money in the loft, to which he replied it was not likely. The officer was not satisfied with this answer, but pro ceeded to search the loft, and he discovered a tin canis ter, in which there was a bag containing a hundred sovereigns and half - sovereig ns, and u p on his bein g asked how the money came there , he said that he p laced it in the loft for safety, as an attempt had been made to rob his house a short time before. None of the notes were traced to the possession of either of the prisoners, but the whole of them had come into the Bank of England, and they appeared to have been negotiated in France, and to have passed through the bureaus of different money-changers. The case against the prisoners, who were charged as prin cipals, it will be seen rested almost entirely en the evi dence cf Lane; and he was, of course, subjected to a rigid cross-examination, in the course of which he made many contradictory statements, and it was admitted by the counsel for the prosecution that Lane stood almost in the posttien of an accomplice in the affair. At the close of the case for the prosecution, The CEIEF JUSTICE expressed his opinion that there was nothing to go to the jury against the prisoner Eve. Mr. CLARKSON concurred in the opinion expressed by his Lordship, and a verdict of Not Guilty was accord ingly taken for that prisoner. The Learned Counsel for the other p r i soners th en the chief poi nt re li e d on was not sufficiently con fi rme d s ev evidence jury, ry , by independent t estimon y , and that his own story was unw orthy of credit. beingseverally Lane ' The Learned JUDGE then summed up the case; and The jury, after a sho r t deliber ation , found Griffiths and Cornish Not Guilty, and returned a verdict of Guilty against Rowe. He was sentenced to be transported for ten years, NORTHERN ClRCUlT—Cambridge, July. 22. CROWN COURT.--(Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL Sarah Ann Roberts and Sarah Archer, two young girls, were arraigned on the coroner's inquest, charging them with aiding and abetting Anne Sutton to commit suicide. The prisoners having pleaded not guilty, Mr. Couca stated that as the grand jury had thrown out the bill for murder which had been sent up against the prisoners, and all the facts had been laid before that body, he, on the part of the prosecution, did not propose, with the sanction of the Court, to offer any evidence against them on the inquisition. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL quite agreed with the pro priety of this co urse; an d the j ury hav i ng accordingly returned a verdict of Not Guilty, His LORDSHIP addressed the weeping prisoners in most kind and yet solemn terms. They had, it seems, united with the unfortunate girl whose death they had been charged with compassing, in a common design to commit suicide. She had fallen a victim to the poison she had taken; but they had survived the portion which they had swallowed. In joining thus to put an end to their lives all three had committed a great offence, and those who survived had not only the pang and anguish of knowing that they had attempted the greatest pos sible offence in the eyes of God, but had thereby exposed themselves to the risk and danger of being tried for the murder of their companion. The jury had very properly found them not guilty, under the circumstances; but they ought to repent bitterly of their misconduct, and determine to amend their lives for the future. For the present they might be discharged. The prisoners, who were deeply affected during the address of the Learned Judge, each dropped a curtsey as she quitted the dock to revisit and enjoy again the busy scenes of a life from which, under a perfectly unaccount. able impulse, they had formed the common purpose o withdrawing for ever. July 23. (Before the LORD CHIEF BARON.) Henry Winteringham, a member of the University, and student of Corpus Christi College, was arraigned on an indictment found at the last assizes, but traversed to the present, chargin g him in one count w ith having assaulted Elizabeth Parr on the 13th of March last, in Cambridge, with intent to commit a rape; and in a second with having committed a common assault on her. Mr. Cooper appeared for the prosecution, and having made a brief statement of the case proceeded to call the several witnesses, whose evidence is subjoined. Mr. Prendergast and Mr. Burcham defended the pri- Boner, who presented the appearance of a handsome and gentlemanlike young man, but somewhat more advanced in life than most undergraduates. Elizabeth Anne Parr—l am sixteen years old. My mother is married to Mr. Miller, who keeps a lodging house in St. Andrew-street. I live in the family and do the household work. On the 13th of March, about half past nine, I went out to do up the shutters of the lower windows. As I was closing the shutters the prisoner came up to me. He said something about going out. I did not know what. I closed the shutters outside and went into Mr. Hedley's room, which is on the ground floor. The door is one yard and a half inside the pas sage to the right. I went in to fasten the shutter nearest towards the railway. As I was fastening it the prisoner came in. I said, "Mr. Hedley will be in directly—l expect him in directly." The door was open then. I saw the prisoner now in court. I know him, because I saw him by the gas-light. I was going out, but he shut the door and bolted it. He then caught hold of mu, and kissed me, and called me a " little angel." He shoved me on to the sofa, which is fronting to the door. (The witness here gave an ac• count of the prisoner's treatment towards her, which we refrain from publishing.) I shrieked out then, and when he called mo a little angel I tried to fight at him. When he shoved me on the sofa I shrieked out. He called me " a little devil." That was because I kicked. He hurt me very much. Just then the door-bell rang. He got up directly, and I came out and met my mother at the door. I did not speak to her then. I felt so excited I could not. I told her afterwards, when she returned from going after the prisoner. I told my mother what had happened. I told her a gentleman had been detain ing me in Mr. Hedley's room. I did not say anything more till I got into the kitchen. That was directly after. I told her what the prisoner had done. I said he had been taking liberties with me. Mr. Lestourgeon, the surgeon, examined me the next day, Cross-examined by Mr. PRENDERGAST—I have been employed in waiting upon the lodgers; they are under graduates. I wait on them. There: is a servant. I wake them in the mornin t ,e.. Ido not go into their rooms and shake them in their beds. Mr. Hall was a lodger. He has left now. I never went into his bed room to wake him, and shake him is bed. I have only been in to fetch his boots, which were just inside the door. What the prisoner said to me; first was some thing about going out with him. I made no answer. I did not tell him to go about his business. I made no reply. I did not stop to talk to him. I went in, thinking he was gone away. I saw him walk away. He must have come back. I cannot imagine how he came to follow me in. I thought when he clime in that he came to see Mr. Hedley. When I told him that Mr. Hedley would be in directly, he said "Who?" and then he shut and bolted the door. I was trying to get out. He sat down on a chair which was near the door. He put his arms round my waist, and I strove to get out. He pulled me on his lap. I was not there half a minute. It was then he kissed me, and called me " a little angel." I shrieked out, and then he shoved me on the sofa. He lay on it. His legs were off, for the sofa was not long enough, I knew all along that I fought him and kicked him. I fought him on the breast. I observed the pat tern of the shirt. It was a white one with a little la vender flower on it. I saw it in the gas-light, which was burning in the room fully. I described him so to my mother. He only kissed me once. I was not more than three minutes in the room with him. I am quite well now, but am very nervous. I have not got better since I was examined just now. None of the young gentlemen ever took any liber ties with me. They never called me a little angel or devil either. They never did so. I never took any liberties with them. I never pulled their hair or sat in their laps. I never did so since this affair. I have not been in their rooms ever since. I know Mr. Not tidge, Mr. Safford, and Mr. Nix. I do Low remember pulling his hair. I just touched it. I cannot exactly say what brought me out then. I think it was because be said to me, in Mr. Hall's room, "You go to the devil, and when I come back I will bring you back flying." I then just touched his hair. I never was on any man's knees before or since. This affair of the prisoner hap pened on a Thursday. On Friday and Saturday I might have laughed. I did not say on the Friday to Mr. Hall that I should not have said anything about it if my mother had not come. There is a bell near the sofa. When the door bell rang he got up, and I got up too. He jumped up directly. H e sa id nothing. When he pulled me on the chair I called out " Oh," so that my mother should hear me. She did tear me, and sent out the servant, thinking it was the children. I did call out " Mother" then also. I called out so twice then. I never mentioned this before. I was so ill I did not think of it when I was first examined. Mr. Chalker lodged up stairs in front, Mr. Hall in the back, Mr. Hedley in front below, and Mr. Nottidge at the back below. Mr. Nottidge and Mr. Hall each had a friend with him at the time. Mr. Nottidge's friend went out while my father was with the prisoner. Re- examined—Mr. Hall never toDk a liberty with me. Caroline Miller—l am mother of Elizabeth Parr by a former husband. On the 13th of March I was sitting at table, just having done supper, when my daughter went out to do up Mr. Hedley's shutters. In two minutes after a bell rang. Mr. Miller heard a noise which he thought was the shrieking of children, and so did I. I sent the servant up stairs to see if the children were crying, and told her to see if my d a ughter had gone to them. During the interval the bell rang again. I put my infant down and went up to the passage. I met the servant, and on her telling me something I rang the bell up stairs violently, to make my daughter hear, because the servant had not seen her, and she did not hear me call her. As soon as the bell rang my daughter came out of Mr. Hedley's room. I asked her where she had been. She said nothing at first. I touched her on the shoulder, .and then she said, " Oh, mother, a gentleman in Mr. Hedley's room has been de taining me." This was said at the foot of the stairs leading to the kitchen. I directly went int o M r . Hedley's room. A gownsman stood with his gown " wrapped round his person, under the gas. I said, What do you do here, sir? Wby hare you detai ne d my ch i ld? ' He made no answer, and rushed out of the room. I followed him into the street, and demanded his name and college. He made no reply. He stayed a minute or two on the kerb of the pavement, and I called to Miller to come out. He came out, and said some one had been insulting Betsy. I told a policeman near to take charge of the gentleman. My husband demanded his name and college twice, and asked what he had been doing in his house. He said, " Nothing." I then called to the po liceman, and then the gentleman ran away, Miller fol lowing. The policeman did not run, because, as he said afterwards, " He did not know what the charge was." This witness was not cross-examined; but the pro secutrix being recalled, was asked when she first men tioned the kicking and fighting, to which s h e rep li ed, " I do not remember ; but I think I told my mother of it." James Miller—On the 13th March I had just finished supper, and Betsy went out to fasten Mr. Hedley's shut ters. After she left, Mr. Nottidge's bell rang. Just then I heard a noise like children. The bell rang twice, and I told my wife to see where Betsy was. She sent the maid, and afterwards she went up herself. The maid came down, and afterwards I heard my wife call out, " Miller, Miller, come here." I went up, and my wife told me a gentleman had been detaining Betsy and insulting her in the room. There he is. I went to the prisoner and asked his name and college. He said no thing, and gathering up his gown ran away to Corpus Christi College. Cross-examined —I saw the policeman as I came back. He asked me what was the matter. I said I could scarcely tell what was the matter. I told him Mr. Hed ley had left his watch and valuables about the room, and I could not tell what had been done till I got home. I said so, because the gentleman would not tell me his name or say what he had been about. Mr. Osborne, the porter of Corpus Christi College, was put into the box by Mr. Cooper, hut not examined in chief. Cross-examined—When I saw the prosecutrix the next day she did not appear to be ill, and was very light in her conduct. She said she was not so bad as they thought she was. Mr. Winteringham is a very steady young man. Mr. Lesturgeon—l am a surgeon. I was called in on the I4th to examine the prosecutrix. She appeared to have been crying. The witness then detailed the con dition of the prosecutrix, which indicated that some violence had been received. Her health was not injured. It seemed to be a temporary excitement. I attended her for five or six days regularly. This being the case for the prosecution, Mr. PRENDERGAST addressed the jury on behalf of his client, contending that to any one at all acquainted with the world, and especially the University, it must appear a most preposterous and unfounded thing to charge the transaction of this night in Mr. Hedley's room as an attempt on the part of Mr. Winteringham to commit a rape on the prosecutrix. The invitation "to take a walk" was a❑ expression but too well known, he should suppose, to girls in the position of the prosecu trix, to warrant her in supposing when she retired into the room and the prisoner followed her that he really wanted Mr. Hedley. The jury could not credit that part of her story at all events, and if she must have suspected, from her own knowledge of the world and a Cambridge life what his real object was, she might very well have put an end to it, if she had been so minded, by calling out to her mother and step-father, who were within a few feet of the door which she allowed the intruder to bolt. Even when he took her by the waist, and sat on the chair, she only faintly cried out "Oh 1" and did not re member calling for her mother till he (Mr. Prender gast) had suggested it to her. Under these circum— stances, the real question, as he conceived, would be whether the jury could, even on this evidence, convict his client of an assault ; for if the girl by her faint de nials and conduct had in any manner given him to be lieve that his solicitations were not altogether unaccept able, then he would confidently say that he could not be found guilty even of an assault. Without at all impung ing the actual purity of the prosecutrix, it could not be denied that her life and duty in her father's establish ment were not the best calculated to preserve her from moral taint. A young girl of sixteen was not the per son most proper to select as the personal attendant on a house full of undergraduates ; and though Mrs. Miller did seem from her account to have fallen in with a most remarkably steady set of lodgers, for, with the exception of Mr. Nix, who talked some nonsense about " going to the devil and flying back again with her," they might be better described as a company of un dertakers than undergraduates; still ho (Mr. Prender gast) could not but think that she must have run great risk in discharging the duties so entrusted to her. The jury would, on a calm review of the whole case, say, he hoped, that there was no case even on the second count, and acquit the prisoner, whose prospects in life and pro fessional career might be blighted by any other result, while a verdict of not guilty would not attach any dis credit to the girl. The CHIEF BARON, in summing up the case, left it to the jury to say whether either, and if either which, of the two counts had been proved. As to the first he might remark that it was rather a strange thing that no one else had been called than members of the family, whereas the house appeared full of lodgers. It would, therefore, be a grave question for the jury whether the prisoner could have gone into that room with the intention of committing a rape on a girl whom ho had never seen before, and under circum stances so likely to lead to immediate interruption and detection if he met with any real resistance? It did, therefore, seem very improbable indeed that the prisoner could have entertained any such design; but that was for the jury to decide. On the other hand, it ap peared that all the facts in the case which militated against the prisoner's intention to commit a rape on the prosecutrix applied with equal force on her behalf when the jury came to consider whether she was a con senting party to such a degree even as would warrant the prisoner in supposing that by perseverance he should attain his object with her concurrence. He was bound to say that it was quite as unlikely that she who was so young, and who was admittedly pure in person, and who had so recently left her parents, almost in an ad joining apartment, should consent to the approaches of a perfect stranger in a room the occupier of which might at any moment come in, and whose return indeed the evidence showed that she expected. The jury would weigh all these considerations when determining whether their verdict should be one of guilty or not guilty on the last count. The jury retired for about an hour, and then, being still at variance, came into court, when his Lordship again briefly addressed them, as the foreman said that ten were one way, and two the other. The CHIEF BARON said he did not wish to inquire into their divisions, but would thank them to consider .heir 'verdict. The jury turned round again, and after a warm de bate, the foreman announced their verdict to be, Guilty on the second count of a❑ aggravated assault. The Chief Baron than, having consulted Mr. Justice Cresswell in the adjoining court, was about to pass sen tence on the prisoner, when Mr. COOPER stated that he was requested by the father of the prosecutrix to recommend the prisoner to mercy. As the character of his daughter was established, he had no object in wishing that the misconduct of the young man should be severely punished. The CHIEF BARON then, addressing the prisoner, ex pressed his entire concurrence with the decision of the jury. Looking at the facts of the case, it was impossible to come to the conclusion that the prisoner cont , •mplated the perpetration of the offence charged in the first count; and it was equally impossible to say that the girl gave her consent to his attack on her, which was certainly indicative of a most loose moral condition of mind on his part. It was the province of the law to visit offences with punishments adequate to their cha racter ; but it was impossible to pass over in silence the profligacy of the prisoner's conduct in thus assailing a perfect stranger, from whom he had not re ceived any provocation or assent such as to warrant his treatment of her. It was clear that he went into that house to take his chancc of meeting with some profli gate partner in his licentiousness, and that finding him self iu the company of a young and inexperienced girl ho thought to prevail on her to gratify his passion. Ile then attacked her, and when the bell racg retired as if conscious of having done a moral wrong—but not as if conscious of having attempted a rape. Under these cir cumstances, the jury having found him guilty of an as sault, and the prosecutrix and her friends having recom mended him to mercy in a manner which induced him (the Chief Baron) to believe that they were honest and sincere, and that they agreed in the view taken of the case by the jury, that recommendation would undoubt edly be taken into consideration in the sentence about to be passed on him, and which, but for that recommenda tion, would certainly have been of a far severer nature; at the same time it was due to public justice and the morals of this university to mark his case with severe reprehension. It was imposssible not to reprobate the state of morals of ono who could conduct himself as the prisoner had done. Under all the circumstances of the case, the sentence of the Court was that the prisoner should bo confined in the borough gaol for three calendar months. (Before Mr. Justice CRESWELL.) CHARGE OF MURDER. Sarah Ann Overment, aged - 18,Q indicted for the wilful murder of Mary Ann Dearlove, by the adminis tration of arsenic, at Leverington, on the 13th day of March last. Mr. Couch was counsel for the prosecution; Mr. Nay lor defended the prisoner. It appeared from the opening statement and the evi dence of several witnesses called in support of the charge, that the prisoner was, together with another young woman, in the service of a Mrs. Dearlove, the wife of a farmer, at Leverington, in the Isle of Ely, and that on the day in question Mrs. Dearlove made two pud dings—the one which was to be boiled being intended for herself, and the other, which was to be baked, being meant for the servants. With the parlour pudding some potatoes were boiled, of which, as well as of their own pudding, the servants, including the prisoner, partook, while their mistress ate her own pudding. Mrs. Dear love took only two or three mouthfuls of her pudding, and was immediately attacked with all the symptoms attendant upon the administration of arsenic in very large quantities, while the prisoner, and one of the farming men who had eaten the potatoes, were seized with nausea and sickness at the stomach. These latter soon recovered, but their mistress sank under the poison and died very shortly. In order to bring home the charge to the prisoner it was shown that her mistress had, on the day before her death, found her in bed rather late, and had given her what schoolboys call a " cold pig," which treatment very much annoyed the prisoner —a feeling which was not soothed when, in the afternoon, she was jeered by her male fellow-servants, and asked whether she liked,her " baptism?" —an obser vation which brought forth a threat from her that "she would serve out her mistress." Beyond this there was no reason to impute to the prisoner a motive for the crime. It further appeared that Mr. Dearlove had quan tities of arsenic in his granary, and that in January last it seemed to have been disturbed, while in the cupboard in the kitchen where Mrs. Dearlove kept her flour were found some other liquid poison. Mr. NAYLOR contended that the case was too weak to warrant a charge against his client; and so thought the jury, who eventually returned a verdict of Not Guilty. This was the last case for the assizes.

[PRICE SD. p f a r m rt n sa a b rp o d a a , gre b efore :d a, nu dp S itni bout fou r POLICE INTELLIGENCE. ia GUILDHALL. o b r t eh Chapmani n e g t e l s o t i w m 9 w Mario n J o h nson, t h e young f emale who was charged at this court on Saturday last with attempting to commit suicide by d esperately leap i ng from the deck of the Bee steamboat i n t o t h e water, was brought up for final ex ti na M yte a ro r f s a h st a et i vh l e , er relative ner t sb o , rt t oh h kae t at charge. I she had attempted th e same thing on two previous occasion. A years ago s h e j umpe d off Black the small bone of her leg. She was taken to St. Bartho lomew's Hospital, and on being discharged from that in stitution she went direct to the bridge and plunged into the water again, but that time it was only from the steps and she was quickly rescued. Alderman Johnson, be fore whom she was taken, dismissed her on promising to enter an asylum at Hammersmith, but on gaining her liberty she refused to fulfil her promise. On a subse quent occasion she appeared at this court, and excited the sympathy of the magistrates on behalf of one of the most deplorable specimens of human wretchedness and poverty ever beheld, even in e police-court. She seemed to be so much interested in the poor creature's position that the magistrate could not refrain from commending prisoner's conduct, and in order to relieve the pressing necessities of the unfortunate creature she had introduced, he ordered half-a-crown to be given from the poor-box to the object of her commiseration. On the following day it was as certained that the prisoner had pocketed the half-crown and left her protege to starve in the streets, from whence she had picked her up in the first instance. Her own husband informed the officers that she had been drunk for the last fourteen days previous to the attempt upon her life that she was now charged with; that in consequence of her disorderly conduct and intemperate habits, the whole of her family had discarded her. Sir C. MARSHALL said he thought this a fit case to send to the Old Bailey, and he would therefore commit the prisoner for trial.—Committed accordingly. CLERKEN WELL. ILL-TREATMENT OF A CHILD EY A PRIEST.—The Rev. W. Weak, priest and schoolmaster of an establishment connected with the Roman Catholic church, Duncan terrace, Islington, was charged with ill-treament to John Farrell, aged six, whose parents reside at No. 4, Elder walk, in that parish. The inquiry occasioned much interest and a painful sensation, the child's person being lacerated and black ened in a most shocking manner. Many respectable tradesmen, who have frequently heard the screams of dif ferent pupils under the defendant, attended to give evi dence of that fact. The poor little fellow, having given satisfactory an swers as to the nature of an oath, was sworn, and stated that at four o'clock in the afternoon, after all the scho lars, with the exception of three of the elder ones, had been sent home, the defendant seized him and flogged him with a gutta percha whip on his legs, thighs, an d other parts of his person, for a considerable time. He could not say how many blows were inflicted, but he could swear that there were more than twenty. He had not been a naughty boy on that day. The " father" (defendant) told him that the punishment was through having absented himself from school on Sunday. The cries of witness brought Mr. Hinchley, greengrocer, of the Liverpool-road, and others, to the place, and they took care of him and gave the prisoner into the custody of Sergeant Beckley, 12 N. Mr. Hinchley said he had very often heard groans, cries, and blows, in defendant's school, where a discip line most harsh and cruel was practised. The complain ant was in a fainting state when he first saw him, and blood was streaming from his person. The complainant's mother stood forward, and said she had no desire to have the defendant fined or otherwise injured. Mr. COMBE had the poor child's person exposed. It was an awful and harrowing sight. He asked her if she sanctioned a beating to that extent? She replied—l see he has been very much beat, but I do not want to punish the gentleman, because he had my authority. Mr. COMBE—Very motherly, certainly, to permit such barbarity. (To the defendant)—What have you to say? Defendant answered that the boy was generally badly disposed, and on the day that he had beat him had stolen a paint brush and been guilty of lying. For those offences, and absenting himself from his catechism class on the Sabbath, he inflicted the punishment, which he regretted to say was done when he was in a bad temper. Mr. COMBE was aware that noblemen's sons as well as others were severely flogged in schools, but parents were not even allowed to flog their children to an ex cess, and therefore could not depute another to do so. No act which a child of so tender an age could have done would have justified the accused in such harsh treatment. Defendant observed that he deeply regretted the un happy occurrence, and must candidly admit that the punishment was too severe. Mr. COMBE said the unfeeling mother thought little of the affair, and he should adjourn the case for the attendance of the child's father and the production of the instrument with which the complainant was tor mented, and any witnesses the defendant thought proper to produce. _ _ _ In the course of a few hours the investigation was re sumed, when the worthy magistrate inquired it the lad's father objected to such severity as that exhibited on his chila's person? Father—An' faith an' sure I don't wish to hurt the good gentleman.—(Groans and hisses.) Mr. ComnE—Then I can tell you and your wife that you are both brutes (handing him the whip, a very large one, with a brass ferule in the middle). flow should you like a blow over the lace with this? Father—Oh not at all, yer Wortchip. Mr. llinchley said he woull endeavour to prevail on the Islington guardians to take up the matter, and wish ing that such a proceeding would be adopted. Mr. COMBE held the defendant in his own recogni nnce to appear at the next session to answer any charge thtil may be preferred against him. EXTENSIVE PLUNDER OF GUANO, THE PROPERTY OP THE PERUVIAN GOVERNMENT.-IMPORTANT CASE. —Philip Long, described in the sheet as a lighterman, 35 years q i age, residing at 4, Broadway, So u th war k, was charged with stealing 220 bags, containing 14 tons 16 cwt. 1 qr. and 1 lb. of guano, value upwards of 2001.; and Thomas Pickering, 30, described as a merchant, Union-wharf, Limehouse, was charged with receiving the same knowing it to be stolen. Mr. nobler (accompanied by Mr. Ruckee, clerk to Messrs. Anthony Gibbs and Son, of Bishopsgate-street, the agents for the Peruvian Government, and several other gentlemen) appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Pelham for the defence. Mr. Hobler, in opening the case, said that owing to some of his witnesses being in the country he should not be able to complete the evidence, but would lay before his Worship such facts as he hoped would entitle him to a remand for a future day. The case was remanded for a week; bail to be accepted. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. GOODWOOD RACES. If at the ensuing meeting, as at many that hav e pre ceded it this season, the fields fall short of som e o f t h e prineipal events, and that such will be the case is more than probable, there is no reason to fear that there will be any decline in the character of the sport; that there will be no lack of it we gather from the length of the programme in the Sheet Calendars, extending to up wards of four columns, irrespective of the plates, &c., to close in the course of the week. The meeting com mences on Tuesday next, with five stakes already closed , the Craven Stakes and a couple of plates.

On Wednesday there is a prospect of nine races, in cluding the Steward's Cup, and four others yet to be named for.

The Drawing-Room Stakes, of 25 soya. each, has 17 nominations, but seems to be left to Hesse Homburgb, Midas, and Mountain Deer. A sweepstakes of 300 soya. each, h ft for fillies, looks like a certainty for Anspach, as a similar stake for colts is for Hernandez. rehandi n g The list for Thursday is very strong, comp the as it does, besides the Duke of Richmond' s and ow- Anglesey Plates (to be entered on Monday)with f thollirty ing valuable prizes: —The Goodwood Cur;6oo, each, h nomivations; the Molecomb Stakes of sations, ft for two yrs old, with 19 nominations , with a 5i13 includ ing Chief Baron Nicholson, Franti Geoodwood Derby fa penalty for winning, and the two vourites, Home-brewed and Maidstone; the first year of the Bentinck (Triennial) Memorial Stakes of 10 soya. each, f the extraordinary ease with 76 nominations, but from c arried off the Chesterfield with which Bay likely to attract many starters; Stakes, at Newmarket' .

The strong wooden cen . tering lately put up under the two arches which spring from I this pier is to enable it to settle without danger, in the event of the foundation sinking, until it reaches the clay, upon which no doubt is entertained that all further movement will cease. The wooden railing lately raised in front of the pa rapet was to prevent the public from observing the Ms.'" the stonework; but it is impossible no t t o perce i ve that th e • mischief is still going on, from the unseemly hollow in u vr roadway. The offending pier has b een t rou blesome ever since the erection of the bridge; but its decay had bee n ac celerated by the gradual deepening of the greatly since the removal of Old London-bridge, and by the increased heavy traffic on the roadway above, for would be accom modation of which the bridge, oven if sound,l. , i i commission scarcely sufficient.
