HOUSE OF LORDS. THE SHREWSBURY PEERAGF. [PRICE 4D. STAMPED 5D .] The documentary evidence in this case was con tinued.

The further proceedings were then adjourned to Monday week. EQUITY COURTS. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir W. Pgge Wood.) HOLMES V. EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. This snit was instituted by Messrs. Smith and Co., news agent 4, and tiro object of it was to obtain certain declarations and relief, by way of injunc tion, restraining the defendants from removing the book-stalls occupied by the plaintiffs at the various stations of the Eastern Counties Railway. In February, 1856, plaintiffs entered into an agree ment with the defendants, whereby they we: e to have the exclusive right of selling newspitOefelpe riodicals, pamphlets, and other publicaticesrlhey paying to the company a rent of 1,5001. rs, year for the first five yews, and 2,0001. a year; for the ensiling five year,, the parcels of the plaintiffs beine , con veyed free of charge. The plaitXffscomplaine b d that their book-stall at the Bishopsgate station had been removed, so as not to be accessible to the passen gers waiting for the departing trains, which it was when the agreement was made, and they lik ew i se complained of bein g o b s t ruc t e d in putting up a book-stall at Bishop St or tf or d. A num b er of affida vits were read, and it appeared that the plaintiffs had complained that the company charged the news agents who lived at the towns on the line too small a sum for the carriage of their parcels, and had requested them to charge a higher sum in order that the plaintiffs might be protected against those country news agents who entered into competition with them, though they were not allowed to sell newspapers inside the stations, and the company had complied with that request. The defendants, in their turn, complained that the plaintiffs had abused their right of sending parcels free by in closing in them books which were not intended to be sold to passengers by the railway, but had been ordered by booksellers and others living on the line. The Vice-Chancellor held that the plaintiffs were not entitled to enclose in their parcels anything hut books and newspapers intended to be sold by them on the railway, and he granted an injunction to restrain the defendants from removing the book stall at Bishopsgate, or any other station, from their position at the time of the agreement was entered into. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Murphy.) IN RE EDWARD RAWSON CLARK. In this case an application was made to issue execution on the warrant of attorney executed at the time of the discharge, in 1831, on the ground that Mr. Clark (who was connected with the turf) possessed considerable property, and was of " ability" to pay his debts. Mr. Red showed cause, and Mr. Sargood moved to make the rule absolute. An application was made by Mr. Reed for a proof of debts. Some creditors had been paid, and a relea.e had been executed by others. Mr. Clark was ready to pay into court any sum that might be found due. Mr. Sargood said the debts in the schedule were 1,1411., and should be paid into court. Mr. Cla r k, in an affidavit in this court in the case of Mr. Howard, said he was worth 12,0001. over his debts, and on examination said 90,0001. was the amount of his property. Mr. Commissioner Murphy made the'tule abso lute, being of opinion that Mr. Clark was of "ability" to pay, as set forth by the act. Mr. Reed asked for a week's time, as Mr. Clark was out of town. The learned Commissioner saw no reason to grant any delay. Mr. Clark was no doubt at the Liver pool races, and the telegraph would reach him. The rule to enforce the warrant of attorney was made absolute. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT-CHELMSFORD, July 17. (Before the Lord Chief Baron and a Special Jury.) THE QUEEN ON THE PROSECUTION OF JOHN HILLS V. JOHN CUTTS AND ROBERT EZEKIEL SMITH. This was an indictment removed from the crown side of the court by certiorari, which charged the defendant 4, under the statute of the 12th and 13th Victoria, commonly known as the Bishop of Oxford's Act, with having conspired together, and by false pretences induced one Martha Augusta Hills, a girl under the age of 21 years, to have illicit carnal connection with the defendant, Robert Ezekiel Smith. Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Lush, Q.C., and Mr. T. Chambers, appeared for the prosecution ; Sergeant Shee and Mr. Woollett defended Mr. Cutts ; and Mr. Prentice was counsel for the other defendant. This case stood over fromthe spring assizes, upon an application made on behalf of the prosecution that Martha Augus'a Hills, the principal witness, was expected to be brought to bed every hour, and was consequently unable to attend and give evi dence. Mr. M. Chambers, in opening the case for the prosecution, said that the circumstances under which the charge was preferred were of a very pe culiar character. The defendant, Mr. Cutt., had fer a great many years carried on the profession of an attorney in the county of Essex, and was a man of considerable wealth, residing at Little Bardfied Hall, and Mr. Smith, the other defendant, was a farmer at Finchingfield, and also reported to be a wealthy man. It appeared that in 1854, Mr. Hills, the prosecutor, took a small farm near Mr. Smith. He h a d a daughter named Martha Augusta, who was at that time 16 years old, and a girl possessed of very considerable personal attractions, and she speedily attracted the attention of Mr. Smith, who was very much older than the young lady, and he went to her father's house, and expressed a dtsire to become acquainted with the family ; and he ul timately made the young lady a promise of mar riage, and was received in the family as her acknow ledged suitor, and it was arranged that the mar riage should take place from his house. The young lady, under these circumstances, used to go to Smith's occasionally, and in 1855 he succeeded in seducing her. andshe subsequently gave birth to a child. It appeared that Miss Hills, during theyear 1855, resided for some time at the defendant's house, but she returned to her father's house, and upon her informing her parents of what had occurred, they consulted a professional gentleman named Shepherd, and he subsequently brought two actions, one for seduction, and another for breach of promise of marriage against Mr. Smith, on behalf of the young lady. While the proceedings were pending Mr. Cutts, who was acting as the attorney for Mr. Smith, communicated with Mr. Shepherd, with a view that some arrangement might be come to between the parties, and, after some negotiations had t aken place, ' Mr. Shepherd consented to take a sum of 501. for the costs that bad been incurred in the ac tions, and to discontinue all further proceedings ; but upon one condition only, which Smith should enter into an agreemethese Harema' Miss Hills within two months. During s t o g he was, that Mr. tiations Miss Hills, it appeared, returnedthe 21ett of house of the defendant Smith, an h d e o r n eceived, she, Oct., in consequence of a ;otter t ith and then took place that was office, and the proceeding and her mother and father, wen y t to Mr. Cutt's Mr.Sm it appeared, were_ present, and a the subject of the present inquiry. both Mr. Cutts, paper was shown to Mr.anodn the part a H rt il o ls f atvhheicfherpmuerr ported to be an agreement to marry their daughter, and they were asked to sign it, but the y refused, and left the office, their behind alone with th e defen dants The young lady, as b e h a d s t a t e d , h a d ha d daughter remaining a child during the intercourse that had taken place between her and the defendant Smith, and she was evidently impressed with the disgraceful cha racter of their connection, and she upon this occa sion positively declared that she would never go back to Mr. Smith's house to occupy the position she had done. A written paper was then shown to her which was afterwards placed in an envelope and sealed up, and Mr. Cutts then handed it to her and told her that it was a good. and valid agreement on the part of Mr. Smith to marry her after a certain time had elapsed, and, upon the faith of this statement, Miss Hills again returned to the house of Mr. Smith and conti nued to cohabit with him. Shortly after these proceedings had taken place, the mother of Miss Hills asked her daugh er to let her see the as;r t e i et ment, but she told her she bad been requeste o to let any one see it, and refused to do so. _ The agreement was, however, at length obtained, and upon it being shown to gr. Shepherd, he at once NEWSPAPER _ Imo`' - 4 , - W --. X* c.:*✓V-, pronounced it to be utterly . w., . b :.,-.,, . , 4 did not in any way bind Mr. St r 0 ,_ ~.,:, - ,:i. .-,::. -,--,, Mice of his promise to marry ,a :71.7e , ",a,.-[- I ,,tcPtt it learned counsel then read the a: r-,:::AlsAi% -,'‘/S tion, which was as follows : "An agreement made this 31st daf 04 - 45bert 3 1856, between Robert Ezekiel Smith, of Finchny field, farmer, on the one part, and Martha A ucm_st : • Hills, of —, spinster, on the other part. Wh7reas an action is now pending in her Majesty's Court of Common Pleas, in which the said Martha Augusta Hills is plaintiff, and the said Robert Ezekiel Smith is defendant, and whereas it ha been agreed between the patties that such action shall be discontinued upon the terms foll )wing : `Now it is agreed that the said Robert Ezekiel Smith shall pay all the costs incurred by the said Martha Augusta Hills in the said action, and the said Martha Augusta Hills hereby agrees to return to Colemans (the residence of Smith) and reside with the said Robert Ezekiel Smith "as hertt ;- fiats ;" and lastly, the rail Robert Ezekiel Smith promises and agrees to marry tlie said Mat tha Au gust t Hills within eight calendar months it )in this date, provided always that it is exprass'y agreed between the parties that this agreement, and all obligations contained in it, shall be null and void if the agreement or any copy thereof be shown to the attorney or other legal advisers of the said Martha Augusta Hillq ' the said agreement being elite ed into voluntarily by the said Robert Ezekiel Smith." Mr. Chambers then proceeded to state that the present pr.)secution was founded upon this agree ment ; and he said he should be prepared to con tend that it was a fraudulent proceeding altogether, that the defendant, Cutts, knew well, at the time, that the agreement was illegal, and was of no value, and that he thereby fraudulently induced the young lady to return to the house of Smith, and in the language of the statute, by false prete nces , h i d in duced her to contrive to have carnal connection with him ; and that both of these defendants had thereby brought themselves within the scope of the Act of Parliament. Sergeant Shee here interposed, and said that so far from the agreement in question not being of any force or value, the contrary had been proved, for Mr. Smith had, in point of fact, married the young lady. _ _ Mr. Chambers said no doubt that since these pro ceedings Mr. Smith had married Miss Hills ; but the question for the jury was whether this was the original object, and whether the agreement was not intended as a fraud upon Miss Hills to induce her to continue her disgraceful connection with the de fendant, and whether Mr. Cutts had not merely acted as the go-between for that object. The learned counsel then proceeded to state that the moment Mr. Shepherd saw the agreement in question he at once preferred an indictment, which was found by the grand jury, and the case would have come on for trial at the last assizes but for the illness of Miss Hills, and since that time Mr. Smith, most probably in consequence of the proceedings that had been taken by Mr. Shepherd, had married the young lady. This circumstance, had, however, created a difficulty in carrying out the prosecution, because it was doubtful whether, as her husband was one of the defendants, Mrs. Smith - could be called upon to give evidence against him. He therefore pro posed to consent to a verdict of acquittal being taken as far as regarded Mr. Smith, and he should then proceed with the case against Mr. Cut's, who, it appeared to him, was the most to blame in the transaction, and who, as an attorrey, ought to have known better than to mix himself up with such a proceeding. The Lord Chief Baron inquired whether Mr. Cutts did not appear to have acted all along as the attorney for Mr. Smith ? Mr. Chambers said no doubt he had ; but he was still liable for the consequences of any criminal act he might have committed. The Lord Chief Baron observed that if Mr. Cutts had done wrong there were other modes of punish ing him without having recourse to such a proceed ing as this. Mr. Chambers said he could not withdraw from the prosecution, and he again asked his lordship to permit the suggestion he had made, to take a ver dict of not guilty in the case of Mr. Smith, and to proceed against Mr. Cutts only, when Miss Hills' evidence would be duly admissible to be calm(' out. The Lord Chief Baron said there could be no doubt that so far as Mr. Smith was concerned there had been a complete condonation of the offence by his marrying the young lady ; and he put it to the learned counsel whether he thought, under the cir cumstances as he had declared them in his opening to the jury, it would not he great cruelty to the young lady, and if any prospect of domestic happi ness for her existed the proceeding of calling her as a witness would not tend entirely to destroy that prospect, and that, therefore, the matter ought not to proceed any further ? Mr. Chambers said that he felt the force of the olsservations that had been made by the learned judge, but he was bound by his instructions to pro ceed against Mr. Cutts, and he should be com pelled to call Mrs. Smith to give evidence. The Lord Chief Baron then said he should take upon himself, no only as a matter of law, but alto having regard to the public interest and the feel ings of the parties, to decide that Mrs. Smith was not a competent witness. If she were examined. at all she must give evidence equalli, against her husband as against Mr. Cutts, and ho shoul.l there fore rule that she could not be examined. Mr. Chambers said as this was his lordship's opinion it would be useless for him to proceed fur ther, or to call any evidence, as the case rested almost entirely upon the evidence of the young lady, who was the only persou present when the agreement was given. The jury then returned a verdict of not guilty. } LONDON, SAI URDAY EVENING, JULY 18, 1857. From the London Gazette of Last Night.

LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN. The directors of this company have isaned a 4- port to the shareholders. on the subject of the Man chester,. Sheffield, -- and Lincolnshire Company's. breach of their agreement. It states that in 18* when the Sheffield Company were in great peen niary difficultic3, their directors induced the Lon don and North-Western Company to outer into a general traffic agreement with them, de,ertninable only upon :seven years' notice ; that the known and intended pecuniary oporation of that •agreement was very decided!y ih favour of the Sheffield com pany for the earlier years ; and that agreemeent has been acted upon until now, the Sheffield Coln- pany receiving under it lsrge amo_nats half-yearly in aid of their dividends ; and thit when the ex pected change in, the pecuniary operation - of the agreement appeared tobe at hand, the Sheffield Com pany have declared it altogether and at once at an end, without any previous notice, and without appealing to the arbitration provided for by it. The report also states that the alleged grievances and pretended negotiatioas, on account of which the Sheffield directors say they adopted this course, and the utter absence of foundation for any such allegations, will appear_ in the correspondence, Minutes and resolutions of the boat (1, which are appended to the report. That it will further be seen by these* dominants that the Sheffield Company have not ventured to avail themselves of their power to have their charges and pretended grievances referred to either of the impartial arbi trators to whom they were bound to leave all dis putes which might arise betweenthe companies as to the letter or spirit of the agreement. The London and North-We-tern directors indignantly d.,:ny all the charges against them, declaring that they have from first to last most fully and honourably, and in a liberal spirit, performed the agreement on their part. The report concludes with the follow ing observations :—" There isnot the slightest pre tence for saying that any sum of money ever was due to the Sheffieli Company under the agreement, beyond that actually paid to them. The charges now brought against the London and North-Wes tern Company of illiberal conduct in witholding traffic and in deducting 50 per cent. on the deficiency are contradicted by the repeated pub lic declarations of Mr. Chapman, of the Shef field Company as evidenced by extrab's from the reports of the Sheffield board and the proceedings at the general meetings of their pro prietors. But if either in this respect or in any other, they really believed, that the agreement had at all been infringed, they were bound to avail themselves of their undoubted right of arbitration under it. The conduct of the Sheffield directors and the entanglement and competition which must, for ,a time at least, follow, cannot but be matter of re gret to your directors, in common with all interested in railway property. Your directors, however, con fidently believe that, by a temperate but firm main tenance of your just rights, they will be enabled to protect the traffic of this company a g ainst any seri ous injury from those causes ; and the directors rely upon the cordial and united support of the proprietors in such measures as may be necessary under the circumstances in which they are so un expectedly placed." MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LIN- COLNS HIRE. The half-yearly report of the directors of this company has just been issued. It states that the accounts of the half-year show a total revenue of 291,0811. earned, in connexion with the railways and canals, a total expenditure of 141,7341., and a balance of net pi-4)6;A of 149,3451., which, with the balance of 4,5001. from the previous half-year, gives a total sum of 153,8471. available for interest and dividend. The debenture and other interest charges against the half-year amount to 63,5101., the canal annuities to 13,7341., the dividend on de b3nture stock to 2501., on the preference shares to 23,6151., on the 31 per cent. stock to 5,9581., and. on the 6 per cent. preference stock to 26,1601., making a total preference charge of 133,2991., and leaving 20,5471. availab'e for dividend on the ordi nary stock of the company. The dilectors recom mend a dividend of 10g. per 1001. on the ordinary ston)c,,or at the-rate of 1 per cent. per annum, leaving a balance of 1,0461. The receipts for passen .% ger traffic increase of 4,615/. over those of the correspi)T4, ng half of last year.

The attendance of company on boird the club steamer, the Oread, was very large ; and the captain (Wheeler) and officers of the club vied with each other in rerriering the visitors happy. The following were the entries Silver Cloud, 8 tons, klr. R. Hewitt. Rifleman, 8 tons, Mr. P. Bennett. Undine, 8 tons , E. Searle. Little Mosquito, 8 tons, Mr. E. S. Bulmar. Valentine, 8 tons, Mr. 3. Suadgele Y• Of these the Undine, being a trifle a:;ove the measure ment, did not contend. The Musquito was the favour. ite, and amongst men versed in such matters there could not be two opinions. The start was admirably taken at a little after twelve by the whole of the fleet, and the Valentine showed in front for five minutes, after which the Musquito went right away from them, and kept it throughout. The Silver Cloud, which had started badly, soon got the second plane, and also held it, and the match finished thus— The Musquito(winner) ........... 6h. sm. 15s.

A tradesman named Ungerer, of 48, Rue de la Villette, at Belleville, appeared a few days ago be fore the commissary of police of the district, and made a statement to this effect :—ln the night he was awakened by a noise, and got up to see what occasioned it. On entering the court-yard he saw a man stooping down at the opening to the cellar, and iu the act of trying to light a inciter match ; this man, who evidently took him for another per son, said, "I have just thrown in two, but they have gone out !" lingerer asked what he was doing, and the man, after a moment's hesitation, rushed on him, and, pulling up his nightshirt, thrust it into his mouth with the fingers of one hand, at the same time pressing him tightly by the throat with the other hand ; this caused lingerer to fall, but ho bit the man's fingers with all his force until he cut through the flesh. The man then let jumped over the wall into the after which the street, ohis c h r o y l i d n'g an o d ut, "I have done the job, but have been bitten by a man who is there 1" Another man then climbed on to theempw,oallrt,oafntdhefipreisdtoal pis resinous e w p w . ; i alk o t m o l e hu n ae esy t e n awakened foundosanloigll k s e t r l t i c a o e r n :p d flight.ebea a o u r people missed lt l aire fi g l eope h e ni h e ei ri ctieg house,otro stgettinghe c r ulphur. I2on the cellar was a ball of resin which had been lighted, but which fortunately had not burned. The cellar was filled with combustible materials. In the court was found a large knife which had been sharpened on both sides so as to make it serve as a poignard, and it was remarked that the incendia ries had taken the precaution of removing the handle of the pump, and of fastening the door of the court-yard with wire, so as to prevent egress. The police have commenced an investigation into this strange affair. THE PRESS IN FRANCE.—M.
