I By Mr. James—l sh ou ld h ave " cut " him long before I I did if it had not been f or th e sa k e of my sister. I did not remonstrate with hi m upon hi s leaving his years wife so in much with Mr. Baldwin, b u t I always thought he ne glected her, and used he r ill. Charlotte Palmer said—l h ave b een for many the service of Mr. Tomlin, and nursed Mrs. Atkinson. I used to go with Mrs. Tomlin to Mr. Atkinson's house frequently, for three years after the marriage, and I no ticed that Mr. Atkinson was very unkind, and that his wife seemed unhappy. While his wife was heavy in the family-way her husband visited her very seldom, and she was left almost alone, and there was no one to keep her company. Cross-examined.—She was in her father's house at Dane-court at this time. number of letters were then put in written by the plaintiff. They extended to considerable length, but as a great part of their contents merely related to indiffer ent matters, we shall only give those portions that were relied upon as being material for the case of the de fendant. • In the first, which was dated July 31, 1851, and ad- dressed to Mr. Tomlin, the plaintiff said— " I have your cheque for 91., which I am much obliged for ; it leaves a trifle in your favour. You are so quick and prompt in your actions that really it's quite alarming, and sets us all an example that its quite fruitless even at tempting to imitate. lam glad to hear you contemplate getting out of Old Man Hall with such flying colours ; for my part I shall be sorry not to see Old Man Hall again ; it's a sweet place, although I dare say not a very paying . 1 one ;, but as to this vagabond of a place (the Vineyard where he.was then residing), I should rejoice never more t o - see it, and depend on it could I get away entirely it must be some urgent matter indeed to induce me to put a s tep into it again, unless it were to shake the dust from my feet, as St. John, or St. Luke, or Shakspeare, or some other swell' says somewhere." The next letter was dated February 16, 1853, and ad dressed to the defendant. It commenced— "My dear Friend,—l have your letter and enclosures. Many thanks for the cheque, which will be of much ser vice for the moment. As you say, what mem. shall I give you for the 1001.? * * * lam much obliged, not only for the assistance thus far, but for the earnest it affords me of your kindness and friendship for me." In another letter addressed to the defendant, dated February 23, 1853, the plaintiff said— "My dear Baldwin,—l am glad you are at Ramsgate, for I believe the place does you good ; and, more than that, you and Mary do each other good, you by cheering her with your good companionship and great kindness, and she by taking care of and nursing y ou, &c. * • I need say no more about the cheque you know my senti ments, as well as if I expressed them a score of times. Many , thanks also for your f r iendly and generous proffer of fol lowing up this kindness. I hope you will be at Ramsgate when I come on Saturday, if my face will let me, for it will be about the last time, so I shall bring Mary away with me ere long ; and we must now fix on something de finite and final, for at Lady-day the Vineyard will be in other hands, and I must have a sale in the course of a month or so, and then I shall want a place to put the fur niture that is not disposed of into, as well as a roof of some sort to cover our heads. It will have to be a wonderful little one, as the girl said when she accidentally pupped, if I do not get something to help me out of my trouble. Love to Poll. God bless you my friend." The next letter was addressed to the defendant, and dated April 5, 1853 : " My dear Baldwin, —Here is a glorious change of wea ther for you who are suffering from asthma ! I suppose you are once again high busy about your petition. When will it, or is it likely to come on ? Let me know as soon as you can, for I have made use of the 1001. you kindly put into my hands for this place ; next to my brewery having to be settled for to-morrow, I am hard driven, and although I shall not be able ' of myself to help myself' (as the parsons say), I was obliged to pay the deposit on the purchase. Hence my application of the order for 1001 ' which other wise I did not intend to have made use of. I am preparing for this sale of ours. How it will turn out, or whether this step will be to my ultimate advantage, of course I cannot tell. At all events, it is necessary to make the trial. The place hardly loOks like itself, denuded as it were of all its comforts, horses, dogs, servants, all gone ; and it breathes an air of melancholy over us all, like the deserted halls of our fathers. * * You must come down and see the old place before we leave it, if you can put up with the muddling way in which we live --indeed I need hardly name it, for ever since you and we have been acquainted we have been obliged to draw it very mild." RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN. The directors of this company have just issued their statement of accounts for the half-year ending 30th of June last. It is as usual elaborate and clear, and con tains far more information with regard to the affairs of the company than that issued by the directors of any joint stock railway company.

The sum set aside for this fund during the past half-year amounted to 21,318/.; and the amount expended was 38,7541. LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN. The report of the directors to be submitted to the shareholders on Wednesday next states, that the net re venue for the half-year ending 30th June last, amounts, after deducting interest on-loans and other preferential charges, to 119,117/. The surplus from 31st December ; 1852, amounted to 7311., making the balance applicable to dividend 119,8481., from which the directors recom mend that a dividend for the half-year, at the rate of 3,1 per cent. per annum, be declared, amounting, on 6,754,3571., to 118,2011., and leaving, 1,6471. to be car ried to the next account. The total receipts on the 251 miles of railway for the half-year ending 30th June last amounted to 313,591/., the working expenses t 0119,746/., the taxation to 18,7431., and the net revenue to 175,1011.; while the total receipts for the corresponding period of 1852 amounted to 285,6271., the working expenses to 113,7691., the taxation to 17,568/., and the net revenue to 154,290/. The increase in the miles open was 9 miles; in the miles run, 38,295 miles ; in the receipts for pas sengers conveyed 18,5681.; in goods, 8,7641. ; sundries, 632/. ; total, 27,9641. At the same time the working expenses had increased 5,9771. Since December last 4,8231. had been received from the sale of surplus land. The rents of surplus property amounted to 3,2831. for the half-year as against 3,1351. for the corre sponding period of last year. The new booking offices and extension of roof at the Waterloo station are nearly completed. The company have commenced the system of collection and delivery of goods on their own account. During the last half-year, in accordance with the former practice, 5,0001. had been charged against revenue on account of the augmentation of the rolling stock, 6801. for stations, &c., and 3,351/. on account of former bad debts and allowance to carriers. The amount of 1,8941. charged for law expenses against revenue includes 4601. paid to the Brighton and South Coast Railway Com pany, for this company's proportion of law expenses con nected with the joint line, and 1,0001. paid to the solicitors of the company on account of Parliamentary and other expenses during the present session. The balance of 4341. is the expense of the law clerk of the company for the half-year. The bill for conferring further powers of the company with reference to the completion of the un finished works between Basingstoke and Salisbury has received Parliamentary sanction. The portion between Basingstoke and Andover will be opened for traffic in March next, and the remainder of the line to Salisbury within three years from the passing of the act. Parlia ment has sanctioned the Portsmouth line, extending from Havant to Godalming, where it is to join the com pany's line. With regard to the West-end and Crystal Palace Railway, clauses for protecting the South- Western Railway property were inserted in its progress through the House of Lords, and the bill was passed. The Wimdledon and Croydon line has also received the sanction of Parliament. A bill for the construction of the Staines and Wokiugham and Woking Junction Rail • way has received the Royal assent, and the new com pany is engaged in preparatioes for commencing the construction of the line. The board will be prepared to enter into amicable arrangements for the development of traffic upon terms of reciprocity upon terms mutually beneficial. The board succeeled in obtaining the rejection of the Devon and Dorset Railway Bill, and pledged this company to seek for powers in this session to construct a double line from Dorchester to Exeter. The extension of the line of this company to Exeter, cannot fail to be beneficial to Southampton. The evidence of authorities of high consideration, which mainly influenced the de cision of the Parliamentary committee in the case of the Devon and Dorset bill, shows the importance attached to the constrruction of railways on the national gauge, and the development of that system will afford a conve nient and continuous mode for the transit of persons ann goods. The directors feel that it is the duty and interest of the company to assist by every means in • its power the dock company in extending their space for s hipping, and should an opportunity ar i se in which the assistance of this company can be advantageously given, the directors will not hesitate t o consult the p; o prietc thereon. The report of Mr. J. Beattie, the locomotive and carriage superintendent, states that the stock in both locomotive and carriage departmentsrunexceed those isin a most efficient state, and alth oug h the miles of the correspondin g h a lf -year of 1852, the working ex penses have be en reduced, Thein iv indicating a healthy an d sound state of th e p l ant. eu st m at u e t me e n e t n o g f in c e a s r , ry t i N n y g e stock shows th a t th ere are 121 lo State carriages, 130 first-class, second-class , boxes, 61 carriage trucks, 1,593 92 ballast and coke waggons • 2,301, Of the 121 engines dition, 12 undergoing considerableeln repairs, 7 working, but which will with new ones, and 5 were built . b place worn-out new stock.

The whole of the discussion was S-i -- :.--=-----'• „ of a cong r atulatory nature, the only points adverted to : .::,... being with reference to an increase of capital, the eaten- kf a r i__, sion of branches, and the issue, on a new and sound . ''LlSidiabi principle, of circular bills of exchange and letters of credit. It was explained, in connection with the pro- posed issue of new shares, that since the preparation of the statement submitted on the present occasion au in creased number had been subscribed for, and that there was every prospect of the bank's business requiring the additional capital. The following is an abstract of the report : f THE Ri 'OPAL B.RITISII BANK. " The directors submit their abstract balance-sheet for six months, ending the 30th of June. Though this is but an intermediate report, they are able to state that these has been a decided increase in the bank's operations. The sums of interest allowed by the bank for the first, second; and third year were 4,456/. 145., 9,6011. 10s. Bd., and 13,3941. Bs. 6d. The sum f or th e last six months has been 9,1781. 6s. 9d., being little short of the amount for the whole twelve months of 1851, while there has been no increase nor change on the rates paid or charged by the bank since the commencement of its business. Its opera tive accounts at the end of the first, second, and third year were 2,989, 3,994, and 4,411 ; at the end of the eseis tee; last six months they were 4,617. The actual opera. tions Dr. and Cr. through these in the six mouths ending -- ending the 31st of December, 1852, were in num b er • 221,320, and in amount 12,756,061., averaging 571. 12s. 9d.; • and in the last six months they were 250,647, amount-%e , ing to 15,572,1051., and averaging 621. 2s. 7d. These facts are sufficient to show that the bank is a. useful instis tution to a numerous and important body of the trading " • " community and that, though the directors have hitherto declined or deferred many applications to extend its opera tions to other localities within the metropolis, besides the three in which they placed their first branches, they ought now, from the experience they have had of their system, to comply with some at least of the requests which have been made to them. They therefore contemplate opening additional branches in those quarters where the want of banking accommodation, the number of the population,a banks 01 their employments, afford the best prospect of the b 1)0ra ions proving successful. According to the funda mentalt principle on which the bank was established, it has hitherto chiefly relied for its means of usefulness—as, indeed, all banks, to be profitable to their sharehold ers, must always do—on the deposits of its customers, rather than on any amount of paid-up capital. More than the sum of the latter, it will be seen, is kept by this bank invested in Government securities, and twice the amount as cash in hand ; and thoughwhev t a h t esa er me principle of safety would guide the directors, _ theilnpelpidle hat th ha up capital might be, yet, having regard to w ey accomplished on their first basis—to the contemplated ex tension of their business on the same plan into other quar ters of the town—and to the privileges accorded to them by their charter, they considered it now advisable to propose to double their p resen t capital, by the issue of scrip for 1,000 new shares of 10)1. each. Of this, one-half only will need to be paid up before the issue of the share certificates. 79,0001. has been already subscribed. The remaining 21,0001. will be distributed among the existing shareholders and customers, in the order of thepriority of their appli cations, and in the proporti on o f stock already held by them. Payment of the 50/. per share will be received by monthly instalment s o f 121. 10s., beginning on the 2 6 th of August inst., a n d 5 per cent. interest will be allowed on each instalment from the date of payment, if the whole shall have been paid by the 26th of December next. In addition to the extension of the business of the bank in the metropolis, the directors expect an increase of profit to the proprietors, and of accommodation to their customers and the public generally, from a widely extended correspond ence they are opening with places abroad, and from the issue of circular bills of exchange and letters of credit, which embrace some features of economy, safety, and ac commodation not hitherto common in such transactions. But, apart from these new sources of expected advantage for the future, the directors are happy to be able to an nounce for the past half-year a dividend of 6/. per cent. per annum, and an addition of the same amount to the re served fund, now forming the sum of 9,1181. 3s. Bd., or 18 per cent. on the paid-up capital, exclusive of the appropria tion of 5761. 18s. 6d. in diminution of the charge for pre irninary expenses and cost of premises."

HOME CIRCUIT.-CROYDON, AUGUST 5. ATKINSON V. I3ALDWIN. The above cause . was resumed this morning at nine o'clock, before the Lord Chief Baron and a special jury. Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. E. James, Q.C., and Mr. Bovill were again present on behalf of the plaintiff ; and Mr. Serjeant Shee, Mr. Ballintine, and Mr. Knapp for the defendant. Evidence was now adduced for the defendant; Mr. R. S. Tomlin said—l reside at Peterborough, and am the father of the plaintiff's wife. She is now 31 or 32 years of age. Mrs. Atkinson was married in 1840, and she is now visiting a branch of my family. J did not approve of her marrying the plaintiff in the first instance. I , used., to see them frequently after that event, and at' a certain period I Was not satisfied with the. conduct of the plaintiff towards his wife. Six months after the marriage I first noticed this. He was generally agreeable to the other members of the family in their presence, but he spoke disiespeetfully of me, and of her other relations, to my daughter and llsiliaved very rep ulsively to her when, they were alone.._ daughter very frequently made complaints to me of his conduct. In consequence of those complaints I had communications with the plaintiff, and I made him pre sents, with a view to induce him to behave more cour teously towards my daughter. These complaints were made periodically, sometimes of three months, and some times of six months' interval. My daughter was kept Without 'Money, and she frequently.iapplied, me for some. I have seen gentlemen at the plaintiffs house, and I wrote to him stating that he was acting contrary to the usages of society, and if he continued to do so I could not receive him at my house. His conduct was not to my liking. He used to speak to young ladies in the churchyard and at his own dinner-table, and I have heard him speak disgustingly upon the subject of women in his wife's presence, and have heard him say that married women in London were worse than single ones. His language at times was so unpleasant to me, with reference to women, that I have frequently left the room. I remember the family being at Ramsgate in 1852, and as the plaintiff said he could not afford to pay the expense I provided him with money for this purpose. He repeatedly applied to me for large sums of money, but I was cautious, and only provided him with small amounts. I remember Mr. Baldwin being introduced to the plaintiff, and I used to call at their lodging with my carriage. Upon one occasion I heard the plaintiff say to his wife, " Get out of the way, Poll ; here come the old folks ;be off with old Baldwin. I spoke to the plaintiff respecting Mr. Baldwin in February or March, 1852. He was ill at the Vineyard at that time. The plaintiff insisted upon his wife taking some gruel and' some pills into his bed-room. I asked him if he knew what he was doing ? I afterwards again objected to his allowing Mr. Baldwin to be so much with his wife, and he said I was a squeamish old fellow, and he should have Mr. Baldwin to live with them altogether if he pleased. Upon another occasion I again referred to the subject of the attentions of Mr. Baldwin to his wife, and he said again that I was squeamish, and that my squeamish ness would prevent Mr. Baldwin from getting him a situation. He likewise made some disgusting observa tions about his wife's health, and he did not care about Baldwin or twenty other men being with her. I a g ain m entioned the subject to him, and he sa id he would not lose the friendship of Mr. Baldwin, for he had more in fluence than I or twenty people in the county possessed. The'plaintiff showed me a placard, which he said he had shown to some one, and they had had a. good laugh over it. The placard was put in and read ; it was as follows : " To be seen in the Minster precincts a large monkey ; it appears much dejected from the loss of its mate, which has been taken away last week by an old M.P. who has been lurking about the locality for some months ; some wag has made the monkey look very ludicrous, by placing on its head a brown wig and a pair of spectacles. We hope the authorities in the Precincts will have this animal taken care of, fearing, in a moment of despair, it might attack and alarm some of the pretty nur se maids who occasionally walk in the vicinity." Examination continued—l understood the placard re ferred to the plaintiff and to Mr. Baldwin. The plain tiff used to wear a brown wig and spectacles. Cross-examined Mr. Baldwin never dined at my house at Dane-court. I would not invite him there. I did invite him to my house at Peterborough. It was at Mr. Atkinson's request, as he said that Mr. Baldwin was a great gun. I was so disgusted at last with the conduct of Mr. Atkinson that 1 would not permit him to come to my house. My daughter was sometimes called Poll by the members of her family. I was of course aware of the nature of the evidence that I was to give` here to-day. I don't think rime din . - •1 1t ►n . twice at the plaintiff's table durinettie .e .• • ven years. Upon one occasion the disgusting lan : age I 1 1 have referred to was made use of in the presence of Mr. Baldwin. Gentlemen only were present, except on one occasion when the ladies were also there. I cannot say positively that the ladies were there. Some years ago I have met ladies of the first distinction at my son-in law's table. I was averse to the marriage, but my daughter was continually pressing me to consent to it, and lat length did so. She never told me that she was very much attached to Mr. Atkinson, but I don't re member her saying that she would not have any other man. My daughter was fond of society, and shortly after the marriage she went out a gO9fl deal. I gave the plaintiff a carriage for their journey - to Wales. At one time they kept other carriages, a footman, coach man, and page, and I considered they were living beyond their means. lam not aware that this was the cause of his subsequent embarrassments. Since the plaintiff has brought the present action against Mr. Baldwin I have sued him for the sum of 50Z., and he has paid the money. I could never get either interest or principal from him, and I consequently instructed my attorney to sue him. At one time he owed me 1,2001. but he paid the amount. On another occasion he repaid me 2001. I had lent to him, and when he repaid me I returned him 1001. At the time he separated from his wife all he owed me was 501., and that amount he has paid me. I never threat ened him with an action of ejectment to recover posses sion of the Vineyard estate. Ile was himself desirous to leave it, and I told him I should make it a matter of business, and I should let it, and hand him over the rent. I don't remember whether my wife accompanied me to Mr. Atkinson's house at the time Mr. Baldwin was there the last time. I don't remember whether Mr. Baldwin escorted my wife into the town for the purpose of shopping at this time. I knew that my daughter had a bill of 801. or 1001. with a milliner in London, and I paid it for her. Atkinson afterwards gave me a note of hand for 521.—a part of the bill—and I gave him the remainder. This was the 50/. that I have claimed of the plaintiff since this action has been brought. il he ee • I knew no. thing of Mr. Baldwin unt as introduced to me by Atkinson as his " great gun.' Re-examined —A settlement wa s never executed, because the proposed, but it was plaintiff did not come for ward with a sum of 5,0001., which he undertook to pro vide. I then consented to give -- m y daughter the Vine yard estate, which comprised the house he lived in, and a rental of about 300/. besides. Mrs. Tomlin said—l am the wife of the last witness. At the time the marriage of my daughter with the plain tiff was proposed, I very much objected to it. After the birth of the second child, which took place two years after the marriage, the plaintiff treated my daughter very unkindly. He was always repulsive, and never treated her kindly or affectionately. He kept her short of money, but kept hunters for his own amusement, and did not appear to begrudge himself anything he required. His conduct towards her was such as to render her very un happy. She did not make complaints, but I was very observant of what was going on between thenti. Cross-examined— I did not like Mr. Atkinson before the marriage. His manners satisfied me that he would not make my daughter a kind husband. He met my daughter the first time at a country ball at Stamford, and he afterwards requested permission to pay his addresses i to her. I visited the plaintiff's father, but it was against my wish. I disliked the family altogether. I don't know whether my daughter entertained any particular affection for Mr. Atkinson. The courtship went on from Novem ber to August, 1840, and when they were married in that month they went to Scotland. After their return it was of course natural that I should go to visit my . child. The visits were always unpleasant to me. (A laugh.) I did not like the conduct of the plaintiff at all. One carriage was kept for the use of my daughter. The conduct of the plaintiff to me even during his courtship was unkind, and my daughter observed it, and_ cried in cons equence. When I pai d the last visit to Mr. Atkin son, at Peterborough, Mr. Baldwin was there, and he accompanied me to a" shop, where I made some pur chases. I have not seen him since my daughter left the Vineyard. Mr. Percival — l a m a solicitor practising at Peter borough. I remember the election taking place there in 1852. The placard that has been produced was itwell generally posted over the town, I called N e l ry and r. At understood to refer t o Mr. Atkinson. kinson's attention to it, and told him that he ought to take some steps respecting it. By Mr. James—lt was not a Whalleyite placard. (A. laugh.) It was disowned, however, i both by the Fitz william and the Whalleyit e party n the city. I showed the plaintiff the placard, and obtained one on purpose. Mr. James —That w as kind. (A. laugh.) Witness—l said to Mr. Atkinson thatiton if e he t showed Mr. Mr. Tomlin the pap er, and the insult his wife, he would p robabl y vote for .At a L l inson t 's candidate. My object in showing the placard was to get a vote. The author of the placard was not known. It was disowned by every one. Mr Banks Tomlin said—l am a brother of the plain tiff's wife, and I was formerly a captain in the Ist Dra goon Guards. I saw the plainitiiffe,reapnedateldleyoantsitdheer cmonir.- mencem ent of their married f virema rs d . u A n t g k e i n n t s l o e n - Atkinson treated his wife mda.n unkind hil n manly manner at that perio was at Ramsgate, I frequently Mr. Baldwin and the child sa M w r h . e A r tk w in al s k o i n ng ra w re it l h y one occasion I asked him accompanied them. re lied, "I dare say you where my sister was ?Ijapnodndhe e e ch plaintiffi ldre n o w n a s t the will find her with Mr. Bel win h p a e n n d t t h h sands." Upon one occasion, w The next letter was dated the 13th of April, 1853, which, it appeared, led to the defendant going to Peter bourough and the subsequent interception of his letter to the plaintiff's wife. It was as follows : " My dear Baldwin,—We shall be happy to see you here as you propose on Saturday. Let us know the train you come by. You'll have to put up with very indifferent fare and attendance indeed ; for with no cook and no servants, and all in a muddle, it's a shocking coming down in the world, but I much fear me it's not the lowest depthl have arrived at-yet—muse verrons : but I am tolerably careless now and almost desperate. We'll talk about your Totnes business, and shall be happy to render you what assistance I can ; and shall be glad if Mills be unseated, though I hope he'll come to terms, by paying your expenses, &c. I am afraid, with you, that the secretaryship would not suit me. I could not give up my matters here for the sake of 2001. a year, which of course I must do to be always at my post in town. As to the sort of people I should come in contact with, I'd swallow that, for when occasion requires I can suit myself to most companies—high or low, igno rant or informed, good or bad." This closed the case for the defendant. Mr. Chambers then proceeded to reply upon the evi dence that had been adduced, and in tha,cpurse of a very able speech he contended that his learned friend had certainly failed in making out the case, he had opened, and that not a single tittle of evidence had been adduced to support the allegations he had made against the plaintiff. It was perfectly clear that the family of the Tomlins entertained most adverse feelings towards Mr. Atkinson, and he said that it was a most unnatural exhibition for a father and a mother to come forward, as Mr. and Mrs. Tomlins had on the present occasion, to assist, and endeavour to save the pocket of the man who had un doubtedly destroyed the honour and the reputation of their child. With regard to the fact of adultery having been committed, he said that if any doubt could by pos sibility exist upon that subject, after reading the letter of the defendant to this unhappy lady, the other testi mony he had laid before the jury established it in the most positive manner ; and it appeared to him that the only question the jury bad to decide was the amount of damages that ought to be awarded to the plaintiff for the injury that had been inflicted upon him by a man whose age and position in society were grievous aggra vations of his crime. The Chief Baron, in summing up,. said be did not be lieve the jury could entertain any reasonable doubt that the defendant had in reality committed the offence im puted to him ; and the only remaining question for them to decide was the amount of damages the plaintiff was entitled to receive for the injury be had sustained ; and in estimating those damages they must take into consideration all the circumstances of the case. He felt himself called upon to remark, however, that he had never heard of a charge of this description being brought forward, in which not a single female witness, either lady, servant, acquaintance, or of any other descrip tion, was not called to tell the jury under what circum stances and upon what terms the husband and the wife lived. It was very important for the jury that they should be informed upon this subject ; hut in the pre sent case no such evidence was laid before them, and from the period of the birth of the second child down to the year 1849, when the defendant appeared to have been first introduced into the plaintiffs family, there was an entire blank, and to a certain ex tent the jury were utterly in ignorance of the terms upon which the plaintiff and his wife lived. The learned serjeant in his eloquent speech for the defendant had certainly made out a very strong case against the plaintiff ; but lie was bound to express his opinion that the evidence he had brought forward had failed to sup port his statement, and that it by no means made out that the plaintiff had intentionally forced his wife into the society of the defendant in the expectation that she would yield to the temptation he had prepared for her. Although, however, the evidence had failed in this re spect, yet undoubtedly there were many circumstances proved on the part of the defendant, which the jury might very fairly take into their consideration when they came ,to estimate the damage which they considered the plaintiff had sustained, and to those circumstances lie would shortly direct their attention. The learned judge then referred to a most disgusting expression spoken to by Mr. Tomlin, as having been made use of by the plaintiff, in reference to his, wife—to the circumstance of the placard, and some such matters narrated in the evidence for the defendant ; and he said the jury would consider whether a man who could make use of such an expression in reference to his wife, and who had acted in the other matters in the manner deposed to by the witnesses, was likely to treat his wife with proper con sideration and kindness ; and whether the intimacy be tween them was likely to be of a kind or affectionate character. These were circumstances to be considered as relating to the question of damages, and he said the jury would no doubt give them their due weight, and return a verdict in accordance with the facts before d being into in oo n d r e t l i b w e i r t a h t i n o n v e a r b d o i u o t t them. t:owr T e ti l i ti e ey J p u, min,ar i y nottiefrs retired , thpo ay a m n r d ao gtne after rns I os.

This convicted murderer, whose execution is fixed for Wednesday next, has made a kind of confession of his guilt to the magistrates of the county of Carnarvon. The following is the confession : Wm. Evans said to me there had been a difference between him and Jesse Roberts for upward of twelve months, because he (Wm. Evans) wanted his son to have the situation Jesse Roberts held. Wm. Evans said to me, "What will you take to entice Jesse Roberts to the mountain, and to fire at him ?" I replied, there is no difference between the boy and me ; I will not go. He pressed me to go, and that he would give me 23 shillings for doing so. I said I was not content, but in the end I consented to do so. I went towards the house of Jesse Roberts, and saw his father standing close to the door. Jesse Roberts soon after came there, and we went to the house together, and we stayed there whilst Jesse Roberts was drinking his tea. I asked Jesse Roberts if he would come to look for a rabbit ; he said he would. We then went together to the mountain. We went to Cerrig-y-pryfaid, where the body of Jesse Roberts was found. Jesse Roberts climbed up a rock. I then, in my foolishness, fired at the poor boy. I wish I bad not done so. He was killed instantaneously. There was a distance of one rood and a half or two roods between us. I cannot say what I did with the body, for I was so confused. On the Sa turday before we parted, Wm. Evans told me in the path to be sure to take a correct aim, and not to miss him. I state on my oath that I would not have killed Jesse Roberts bad I not been persuaded to do so by Wm. Evans, and had I not been paid the twenty-three shillings. In consequence of this statement, William Evans was apprehended, but after an inquiry of several hours, the magistrates agreed that there was no truth in the pre tended confession, which was the fifth version of the horrid transaction which the murderer had ventured. Evans was at once released. SHOCKING MIIRDEIL—A murder of a very shocking description took place near Wootton-Bassett, on the night of Tuesday last. The victim was the wife of a man named Thomas Simmons. It appears that he bad the same evening , struck her and thrown her into the canal, whence she was extricated with difficulty. Later in the evening he brutally assaulted her, kicking her violently, whereby an artery became ruptured, and the poor woman bled to death in a very short space of time. was apprehended almost immediately. The I Thede fellow deceased was at the time far advanced in pregnancy. 22,671 8 0 £942,941 -i . 5 7 CR. By Uncalled-for stock Loans on securities, advances, bills dis• £50,000 0 0 counted, &c.

THE GRAND ROYAL REVIEW OF THE FLEET AT SPITHEA.D BY THE QUEEN. Her Majesty will review the fleet on Thursday next, the 11th inst., and, according to present intentions, will be afloat by ialf-past 8 o'clock in th moraing—a fact which railway directors and intending excursionists by train should bear in mind, if they wish to see the be ginning of the interesting spectacle. It is, indeed, very early, but fleets are not moved about with quite so much facility as battalions of infantry. Visitors should be in Portsmouth on Wednesday night to insure witnessing the spectacle. The officially promul gated order of the day is, for the sailing line-of-battle ships, Queen, 116 ; London, 90 ; and Prince Re gent, 90, to be towed out to beyond the Nab on Wed nesday. On Thursday morning all the rest of the fleet will receive the Queen at Spithead at half-past 8, and then form two divisions, and join the larger craft outside the Nab, where manoeuvres, which will terminate in a sham fight, will be performed under the direction of Vice- Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, who will hoist his flag in the screw three-decker Duke of Wellington. Rear-Ad. mirs,l Corry will shift his flag into the Agamemno 1. The Lords of the Admiralty will arrive on NVednesday. One of the Board (Rear-Admiral Berkeley) arrived here yes terday, and to-day has been arranging preliminaries for the review. The sailing ships and screw steamers now form the van and centre lines of the fleet, and the paddle steamers form the lee line between. On Monday, how ever, the whole fleet will change their berths. The fol lowing ships will compose the acting squadrons : LINE-OF-BATTLE SHIPS Duke of Wellington, screw Queen, sailing Agamemnon, screw ot Prince Regent, sailing Lyndon, sailing Blenheim, screw Ajax, screw Hogue, screw 131 116 90 90 90 Edinburgh, screw 6B FRIGATES AND CORVETTES.

Two or three addtional line-of-battle ships have been mentioned as likely to join, but we do not believe they will be ready in time. There is every appearance of fine weather having set in ; and we can but hope for its continuance on an occasion of such importance as this grand national review. The regatta committee are also alive to the occasion, and are actively engaged in getting forward the regatta. Three days' holidays may be anticipated, and on such a scale as has not taken place since the memorable time of 1814. _ The Tribu ne , 30 , new screw -f r i gate, C ap t a i n th e Hon. S. T.
