The defendant Was also a dealer of eUtton waste in that neighbourhood. Abut four years ago, wh , mt the plaintiff was a girl of eighteen years of age, the defendant, who -seas then twenty-six years old, 'began to pay hiS'addreSses to , •"• her. • This courtship continued for abotit two years,' the defeOd t .4nt•coutintied . to visit the plaintifrifather's' house, when it Was discovered that the plaintiff was with child by the defendant. He should be atitittii prove the fact that the defendant had said .10 tirOor three people that he was going - to marry the plaintiff. They would therefore have little difacUlty in aiming to the can .. elusion that-the-promise of marriage was given.

He should be able to show that the defendant was a manor substance, and had recently bought a large quantity of machinery, and the jury would judge from 1. that what he was capable of paying. Robert Holt, the father of the plaintiff, was called, but it ap - i.pearing that he had ,employed the attorney for the prosecution, his evidence could not be,received. - • 4ohn , Garsitle was examined, and deposed to having some -conversation with the defendant on behalf of the plaintiff, in order to come to some arrangement, and avoid coming to trial, ~.but that the defendant offered too small a sum (45()) as satis factimis and the negociatinn fell thriatigh. .Dinah Graham, a friend of the plaintiff, was called to prove the• courtship, She but often seen theta together;" and" tied leassi the defendant say he would marry the plaintiff and she told him she thought it was time.

Cross-exainined by Mr. CUT, r NGH m.- 7 -When he saw Mr. Balsover, on Friday, he told him that he had other cases to attend to and he feared he should not be able to attend to the deceased. Mr: George Young Graham, Mr.'Sarnuel Howard Cheetham, and Mr. Rai nes, all surgeons practicing at Stockport and Heaton Norris, who were called on to sae Mrs. Wordsworth on the Saturday morning, were examined touching the state in which they found the deceased. They described minutely the appearances and reason which led to her death. It appeared that she could not have got through the accotichment without assistance, as the operation of " turning" ought to haVe been, perfOinied. By an operation . a dead child was brought into the Weald, and the deceased Subs'equently died of inflammation. Mr. GoTTINnktAm addressed the jury for the' defence, and went niiiintely . intd all the circumstances brought out in evi dence; Contending that no gross ignorance or negligenCe had been preyed., He should show by r evidence that Mr. Thilsover's housekeeper,•Who slept in the tront apartment, .while he slept in a back room, and who answered' the vii Hess Woriisworth, thought that Mr. Balsover was really out when she told'him so, and that the applicatiOn was never communicated ' Elizabeth Bennett, Mr. Baliover'S housekeeper, stated that She ho lived with him twelve years. She stated that as Mr. Balsover had told her that he had to go s put to two other labours 'she . drought' he'had gone out, andtold the huSband so, directing him to those places where she expected he Would be found. Other witnesses were called, who Proved generally that the Prisoner was an attentive and skilful man, and that he had two Other - casei•which reqiiired his attention, er might do so, at that 'time; and that he distinctly told both her and her husband so. The sister-in-law of the deceased proved that she (the deceased) hail actually' admitted to her that Mr. Balsover told her he Could not attend her, and she might get another, ,doctor. BitANDiad,lressed the jury in reply. The J ociE said the jury . must be satisfied that there had been gross - negligence and igoorance ere they . could convict the Prisoner. A mistake or error iii jhrigment was not sufflCient, because it would be a fearful thing if a wediCal wan in the practice of his profession were to be placed at the bar for every error ofjudgment. 'The jury returned a verdict of not eniltv, 'and the prisoner was instantly discharged. CHARGE OF M A NSLA UGHTER.

I,ounsiitP said, if the jell , were of opinion that thB pii aoner had' onl y interfered to defend his mother, he could not be convicted. The jury must, .however, distinguish as to whether he had used more violence than was necessary for that purgose. The jet c, after a few moments consultation, returned a ver dict of Nut Guilty.

The meeting was held at the house of John Bradley, at Dukinfteld, the husband of the present defendant. Mr. Astley went there, and remarked, when he went in, that the room lOoked very handsome, with some pictures, which, it appeared. he had sent to adorn the room, One of the great masonic festivals was held on St. John's day, and one of these pictures was a painting of St. John. These pictures were to be kept by Mr. 13roadheut for the use of the lodge, and to ornament the room, and remainee. there till the year 1832, when Mr. Bradley died. There was then a sale of his effects, and Mrs. Bradley herself was aware that the pictures did not belong to her bus - baud, and pointed them out as not his, property, but that they belonged to the freemasons. Mrs. Bradley afterwards married a Mr. Ledward, an innkeeper, and he had also since died, and from that time Mrs. Ledward claimed the pistyres as her own. .Sbe was desired to give them up, but refused, and saidthe did not belong to any one but her- Self, ,end obstinately persisted in retaining them.

Upwards of £lOO,OOO had passed through his hands whilst iu this situation, and the plaintiff thought that 27s per week was not an adequate remuneration for .these services, but that he ought to have at the rate of £lOO per annum, which he alleged was promised to him by the defendant. A person named Stokes was called, who now fills the same situation formerly,occupied, by the plaintiff, and his evidence went to show that the plaintiff was incompetent to fill his situa tion, and that he had told witness repeatedly that he had applied over .arid ,Over again for' an increase of salary, but he never could g et it. HisLoansnri , here stopped the case. There could be no doubt, Whatever the plaintiff might think, that after receiving 275. a week for years, he could not call on his master to give floe Juyy found a v?rdic,t for the defen,clant. TOOMA;SAND ANUTHER, ASSIGNEES CONNELL. . . Mr. Creaswell, Mr, Alexander,. Mr.. Wig,htnian, Mr. Tom insOO, and Mr. Cowling appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Wat son and Mr.. John Henderson for the defence. .'• Mr. CirEssww„ in opening the .case, said, the plaintiffs in this ease represented the creditors of.Samtiel Brown and. James Cheetharu, of Manchester.; andithe defendant represettted the Northern and Central Bank of England. • The action was brought to recover a considerable ,sum of money, about £llOO. which was paid into the Northern and Central Bank, between the 22d of November, 1836, and the 4th of. February, 1R37.,/, Brown and Cheetham made voluntary. payments, in older, (so said the plaintiffs) to make their account, with the bank better than , wnh the other creditors. In the course of their business they became embarrassed in their affairs. .Brown absented himself from the manufactory .for a considerable time, and Cheethain struggled ow, :hut from time to.time creditors were pressing on them, and these they were puffin , . off as well as they, could. After ‘! robbing Peter to pay .Paul," according to • the approved system, fur some time they succeeded io 'arming an account with the South Lancashire Bank, some friends .guaranteeing them, and therefore it was an object with Brown and Cheet haul to pay off this in order to save tneir friends from any liabiltty. FromNovernberto December they were paying much into the Bank, and drawing nothing out, and all that they could collect from their different creditors went to oneac count, and all the rest of their creditors who were urgent for their money, could never get a f ar thi ng . I n t hi s wa y the South .Lancashire". Bank got sortie £llOO. the produce of goods which were sold.under circumstances which induced. the assignees at .the last assizes to bring an action, whichterminated in a ver dict which courpelled them to refund the money they had sore ceived., It would appear that in the month of November, there were some hills of a person of the name of Maguire. in. Ireland, coming due, Messrs. Brown and Cheetham had given acceptances for £5OO, and .some intimation was given .that these bills were not likely,to be paid; and when Brown antl.Cheatham were satisfied in their own minds, if these bills were nut paid, the consequence.:must be: they must infallibly .stop. Accordingly, a person. in their employ, was sent over.to Ireland to se,e :what he could.make of Maguire, and also to see and get some cash from some of the .other creditors. But if they, had succeeded in that ; it would-be:found that la was on ly to wind up their affairs ; and as soon as th.e.liank.was paid commit enact of bankruptcy. Their agent wrote that Maguir e arts worth nothing, and that very day the letter_was receive , the whole of their goods were sold off, .to the amount of 8 or £9OO, to Cheat ham"s sou-in-law, Silley ; andahen.Silley, by way of papnent, paid the money into the. South Lancashire. hank. This sheaved a determination -on their .[:art to protect their ;friends at. all hazards. This transaction was proved and con sidered to be a fraud tie the other creditors. Mr.Cresswell con tended that these moneys were paid into the Northern and • Central Bank in order to place them in a better situation than the other creditors... lithe. jury Sound that such . was the case, the assignees were entitled to have that money in order to make an •• equal distribution to the creditors. He should prove that while a person of the name of Thowas.applied for mouey and . could get nothing but a bill, the .bank•had been receiving the same .day, £250, the day after,£2Bo,la fortnight after, £24B;and • three days after that £l6O, whilst they.had told Mr. Thoinias that they had no money whatever. And during the whole of that time they had only drawn out £4O from the .'aank. . Mr. John Shee, a clerk of the bankrupts was examined, and deposed .to many of the facts above stated. Ile went over to Ireland, and got no money for the bankrupts, and on his re turn, found they had sold the stock. On being cross-examined,• he could not state that the bank had repeatedly dunned Brown and Cheatham, and required them to pay up. Other witnesses were called to prove that.they had dunned the. bankrupts for accounts awl had not succeeded. The examination of Mr. Connell, the manager.of the bank,, the present defendant, made before the Bankrupt Corn.' t»issioner, was put in.and read, from which it appeared that the several .sums .mentioned above, and others, ,had, at various times, been paid ,into. the bank, from November the 21st,' amottatiug ,to -.EI 1,1 1, and that cash only to the amount of £4O, had been drawn out on the 2nd of January. This formed the case for the plaintiffs. Mr. WATSON, fur the defence said, the question which the jury had to try was, whether the whole of the payments made into this bank from the 22d of November to the 2d ofFebruarY, when the bankruptcy took place, should be refueded. That was a most monstrous and unjust thing. Up to the time of his bankruptcy. the bankrupt "by . law had a right to dispose of his goods and money as he thought fit, if he did not commit an "aet of fraudulent prefe'rence. The jury, before they could find for the plaintiffsonust be of opinion that thelankropt - at that time contemplated an act of , bankruptcy ; and that these payments' were made in contemplationof their defrauding - the rest -of their creditors. But it' the payments were made with any apeeific object, for the • purpose of staving off a bankruptcy ; or other purpose, then the defendant would be entitled to their verdict. He should show to them that there was a pressure from the bank from time to time on the bankrupts, and if the payments were made under the pressure,•he - should be 'entitled to their verdict. In May 1836 the bank wrote to• the bankrupts, wishing a gra ' dnal liquidation of their debt. On the 21st oiNovember, the bank wrote requiring an immediate 'settlement withiwa week, by cash or bills, of the debt due from the bankrupts to the 'bank ; and another letter on the 281h,aif November, reqtiiring the balance of the banking account in a few days, Witnesses were called to prove the abovepressure of the bank. , . . , . • Mr. CRESSWELI. replied. He contended that arta , payments I by a bankrupt two months before his bankruptcy; must not be ' of the character of , afraudulent preference, but bona fide pay ments in the course of his trade. ills Lotman P, sionnaing up said, if a creditor was more pressing un a debtor than the'general body of creditors, and by abet means obtained payment - by goods or 'money of his debt, be was'cilorred by law-to retain his advantages over the general body of the creditors, if at the time of payment, an act of bank , ruptcy .had not been committed. But threlaw would not albiav a bankrupt anticipating bankrtiptcy'voluntarily to take a sum of money or goods and hand them over to a particular party to save them from loss. The jury would- judge from the facts Of the case, though M r. Silky, the son-in-law, hind been frambilently 'favoured, do not let them suppose that the bank had not been pressing for payment, and+ got their money fairly. if i been made out; which it had not, that the sureties to the batikt had were the relations of 'the bankrupt, it would not have been' a fraudulent preference in favour of the bank, which they had to get back of the relations. As it was, there appeared no motive why they should favour the bank: If they were of' opinion that the payments were made voluntarily in favour of the bank, and NISI PRIUS COURT.—moNnAy. in contemplation of bankruptcy, the plaintiff would be entitled ( Before Sir J.

Mr. Hammond was formerly connected with the theatrical profession as an actor, and in his line was considered un equalled. He was a member of the Tbeatre-Roral company of this town and Manchester, and seceded from it to undertake the (business of a publican, in which situation, as well for his private virtues as his public conduct, he was universally respected by a large circle of friends. CHARGE OR HANSI, ALGHT}.R. John aged 39, was charged with having, at Man chester.,felnuinusly lilted John Meehan. Thi, was the case of a watchman at Manchester, who. on the .11th of November last,. had occasion in the discharge of his duty, to quell a drunken row, in which the deceased. was a party engaged, By some means or other the deceased had his head cut severely, and of this injury he died. It had been presumed that the.vvound was inflicted by a bloc from the stick of ,the, watchman. The prisoner was lodged in custody under the coroner's warrant, and had continued in prison sinco Novem ber last. . Wheu.the.ease had proceeded to some length, Mr. Lawrence Peel, who prosecuted the prisoner, stated that he found he was not ,able to prove it. The prisoner was defended .by Mr. Brandt. The jury signified that they were about to state their opinion, that there was not a tittle of evidence against the prisoner, and they thought he ought never to have been imprisoned. A ver dict of Not Guilty was taken. MS U1111) . 01.11 , ordered the prisoner to-be discharged. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. .la.hua Ogdon, 'aged 21, was • placed at the bar, charged with, having on the 25th of December last, at Prestwich-cum•Old ham, killed John Seville. Cottingham appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Brandt tor the defence. • The prisoner and the son of the deceased were companions. Onthe evening of Christmas day, another son heard a noise in the lower part of the house,. which caused him. to go down stairs. There he found the prisoner with his shoes-in his hand. and he (the prisoner) expressed his intention of going to bed then. lie was desired ,to.quit the house, but he did, not com ply. The deceased, who had been drinking at a beer-shop.not far from them,.rettoned-home at this juncture.. The prisoner immediately attacked him with great fury, knocking him down and kicking him. • ‘. It appeared ill the course of the evidence, that the deceased had been quarrelling before he arrived at home, and had been before abused by some one. It could not be determined by the. evidence, from whom be had received the injury which caused his death., .The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. The learned JUDGE sail the prisoner had had a very narrow escape. Had he been convicted, he would assuredly .14ave•been transported for life,.as. he, and all other. judges. were determined, by every means in.their power, to put a step to the brutal practice of kicking individuals while on the ground. , MANSLAUGHTER.. Peter Erkersley, nged 27,, was charged with.having on the 11th of February, et ,Winwick, slain Peter Gleave. Dr. Brown conducted the prosecution, aud Mr. Murphy ap- , peared on.the defence. .1 t appeared from the .evidence, that: the prisoner and Gleave .were drinking together at a,public, house, at Winwiek, on the night of Atte 11th of Feb. last. ,When „the,y had got out ; into the lane, the challenged each other. to :fight. .'They stripped, . and ,fought three or. four rounds in the lane, after which they adjourned to a field, and fought 15 or 16 rounds more. The' witnesses oleseribed it as a fair stand up : fight. They took off their shoes during the latter part of the combat. . At length,. the .prisoner struck the deceased a blow, which.knocked him down, and he lay on the ground :insensible. Ile never recovered his .consciousness. The,fight.toek place on .Monday night, and he dii cl on Tuesday morning. • The jury found the prisoner guilty, but recommended him to morev.
