If he could &WA the Court and the jury in finding out
any doubt that might operate in your favour. The jury
have been carefully warned that they could only and
you guilty on evidenoe that WWI so clear and aatisfactory
to their mind so to exclude all reasonable doubt. They
have given your case throughout, I am satisfied, the
most anxioua attention, and after full deliberation they
have found no room to doubt that you are guilty of the
'Widow; crime which is charged upon you by this indict-
ment. It remains only that I should pane upon you the
aentence of the law. It is not my aentenee—not the
sentence of a frail and erring man like myself—it is the
sentence of the law that I 11111 called upon to pronounce
upon you. The mandate says—" WllO6O sheddeth 1111111'y
blood, by man shall his blood be shed." You have been
found guilty of attacking a defenceless female in a lonely
neighbourhood--her neighbours being out, engaged in
their usual operations, and you must, in a short tone
after your find attack, have brought her to her end.
The law will be more merciful to you than you were to
her. You afforded her but little, if any, opportunity for
oonaideration or for repentance; but time will be af-
forded you. You will have the assistance of the chap-
lain of the gaol ; and I huplore and entreat you to em-
ploy those few days that will be left to you here to en-
deavour to make your peace with your Maker, and to
atone for the grievous offence of which you have been
guilty. My duty is clear—it is to pronounce upon you
the sentence of the law, and that is : That you be taken
from Fence to the place from whence you Caine, and
then to a place of execution, and that you be there
hanged by your neck till you be dead, and that ydlir
body be buried within the precincta of the pruion in
which you have been last confined, and may the Lord
have mercy on your soul!

The youthful prisoner, who seems from his short sta-
ture and general appearance to be not more than 15 or
16, was then removed from the dock. He did not mani-
fest the slightest emotion on hearing the solemn sentence
pronounced, but preserved the same 'Whit, immovable
appearance lie had maintained throughout the whole of
the day. We may remark, however, that when his jacket
and trousers were produoed and handed to the jury lie bit
his up slightly, and followed the garments with his
eye. Otherwise no sign of interest escaped him.

The Court rose end the Assizes were closed about
haltiest seven o'clock.

PORTLAND.

EXTENSIVE FIRE. --The convict establishment at
Portland. was, on Sunday night, the scene of a ter-
rible contlagration, which, however, by great exer-
tion on the part of those employed at the prison,
was restricted to the buildings connected with the
bake-house and ovens. The fire broke out at mid-
night and lasted for over two hours, and it is said to
have originated through some defeat in the centre
oven. Bread just made up from thirty sacks of Hour
was destroyed, and about ten sacks of Hour damaged.
The bake-house and ovens were burnt down, and the
damage is estimated at from £2,000 to £3,000.

On Sunday last a boy, whilst playing at the edge
of the cliff on Doghouse Hill, near Chideook, over-
balanced himself, and slipped from the top to the
bottom, a distance of at least 150 feet. He sustained
no injury whatever, u he slipped down the steep in-
cline at a rapid pane, and his feet bourne imbedded
in the sand beneath. He is probably the tint human
being who has made this perilous descent. The cliff
is not, of course, perpendicular, but it is an incline

ral gaol delivery for this county was opened at the
Shinthall on Wednesday afternoon, by Mr. Borate
Watson. His Lordship arrived from Salisbury by
the Great-Western train due at Dorchester at a
quarter to one, but for some reason or other the
train was delayed about an hour. On his arrival at
the station Mr. Baron Watson was met by the high
sheriff of the county, G. F. W. Miles, Esq., of Ford
Abbey, the sherid's chaplain, the Rev. Charles
J. Pratt Forster, of Stoke Abbott, the deputy
sheriff, H. A. Templar, Esq., Mayor of Bridpnrt,

fif Mr. Lewer, presented a very neat appearance, was
, drawn by four fine greys, furnished by Mr. Manley,
of She King's Arms Hotel. Four and twenty javelin
men, preceded by trumpeters, walked in front of
the high sheriff's carriage in its progress through
South-street, and High West-street, tu the County
Hall. The appearance of the town was quite ant•
mated, numbers of strangers, drawn hither chiefly
on amount of the assizes, thronging the thorough.
fares, church bells ringing, and the weather all that
amid be wished. After the oommission had been
opened in the Crown Court, the courts were ad.
journed till 10 Thursday morning, and his Lordship
withdrew to the county lodgings for a short time,
after which, at 2 o'clock, he proceeded to St. Peter's
church. The mayor (W. Mantield, Esq.,) and our-
()oration of the borough, in their robes, and at-
tended by their officers, metand headed the procession
at the church door. The prayers and lessons were
read by the rector, the Rev. Morton Colson, and the
Assize sermon was preached by the high sheriff's

WESTERN CIRCUIT.
SALISBURY, July 20.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron WATSON.)

Robert Dance, the little boy who was yesterday con-
victed of arson, was placed at the bar for sentence.
Mr. Baron Watson told him he had commenced early
in life, and had been induced to commit a most serious
offence. He hoped he would take care when he came
out of prison, and not commit any other crime. He
would deal very leniently with him, and put him in •
way to be reformed ; lie should, therefore, sentence him
to be imprisoned for four months, and then to be sent
to a reformatory fur five years. He wished to make an
observation relative to the case. Somebody had written
him a letter which purported to be signed by Mr. Lytle
(the prosecutor), who had utterly forgotten what was
due to him, suggesting that he should pass a severe
sentence on the prisoner. It was not right to interfere
with • judge, and if he did not think it was from
ignorance he should have taken some measure to
punish the person who was guilty of so improper an
act.
Charles Gray and John Chalk were indicted for the
manslaughter of George Bandy, at Downton.
Mr. Snowden prosecuted.
This appeared to be a publichouse fight. Gray and
Bundy quarrelled in a publichouse, and began fighting.
The landlord interposed. The parties, Gray and Bundy,
accompanied by Chalk and Beaumont, Hien left the
house. Bundy challenged Gray to fight, but Gray said
he lied been working hard all day and did not want to
fight, but Bundy aggravated him, and they went into •
field and fought for about half an hour, when Chalk
advised Gray to bit lower, and Gray then struck Bandy
in the bowels and knocked hint down. Be did not get

The largest chimney-stalk in oonnexion with the works

Only 250 guineas were offered for Paletot. 800 wero

is, perhaps, one of the handsomest stud horses in Eng-

offered to take him at that price. 2,000 guineas, how-

The Madrid jonrnals of the 9th state that General
Prim, who, in addition to the military experience gained
in the civil wars, took part in Omar Paeha's campaign
on the Danube, is to be appointed commander of the
expedition against the Riff. They add that the expedi-
tion is extremely popular throughout the country, the
atrocities of the pirates having long excited the indigna-
tion of the people, and been even made the subject of
songs, plays, and novels.
One of the journals says that the Queen desired that
the name of O'Donnell slionld be given to the ship of the
line launched at Ferrol, but that the President of the
Council declined the honour. It is stated that, while in
some parts of the country the elections excite so little
attention that it has been found almost impossible to
organize committees, in othern they have created as
much enthusiasm aa those of DM. Letters from Bar-
coked& state that the workmen have for the most part
returned to the mill., and that public confidence is com-
pletely restored. They also state, on what they Terre-
pent to he undeniable authority, that Captain General

wards of 20 yearn; aim, that trade ia improving, autho-

go on with the present system of trying highwaymen by
inertial law, instead of by the civil eonrts, u it is more
speedy, and offers better guarantees that bandits will
not escape.
A Madrid paper states that Lord Malmesbnry has
givon to the Spanish Government fall explanations of
the passage in his speech in the House of Lord. on the
slave-trade. He disclaim, all Intention of offending the
"noble Spanish nation ;" intimating, however, • justifi-

Thu Leon Evanol comments on a proclamation pub-

the introduction of white foreigners into Cuba, and
points out how easy it would he for an Auierican ship to

THE LATE BREACH OF PROMISE CASE.

Mr. Megan, M.P., the defendant in the recent inte•
resting cause which was to have been tried at Bristol
assizes, writes to the Vat/neat/4 Guardion :
"London, Sept. 3, 1853.

" Sir,—l have hitherto abstained from taking any
notice of several absurd paragraphs which I have been
informed have from time to time appeared in various
newspapers, referring toe recent case of alleged breach
of promise of marriage, in whieh my name has
been alluded to. A have not, with one exception, my-
self seen any of those aragiaphs, which, I make no
doubt have been most annoying—so much so, that I have
taken steps to have a perfect collection made. The ex-
ception to which I allude is the one which appeared in
your last publication, headed "An Expensive Shawl,'
and it is solely because it appeared in your journal that
I notice it at all. As you have given it publicity, you
will oblige me by also giving publicity to this hurried
note, which I write for the purpose of informing you
that there is not a particle of truth in any part of that
paragraph; and at the same time permit me to observe,
that the period at which the imaginary scene is laid,
must of necessity have been previous to August, 1858.
I may consider it right on some future occasion to
address you on the report given of the so-oalled trial,
which, though given as nearly as possible in the words
made use of, conveys to the public • most erroneous im-
pression.
I am, Sir,
Yours faithfully,
"W. H. MAGA.N."

female, to ank for an order under the Matrimonial
Causes Aot, to protect her property from her husband
and his creditors. They had been separated 17 years,

Mr. Buroham—When and where were you married?
Applicant—ln St. James's church, Piooadilly, in 1819.
Mr,Burcham—How long has your husband really de.
sorted you?
Applicant—Seventeen years.
Mr. Buroham—llave you seen him during that time
Applicant—Yes, sir. The last time I saw him was
two years ago, but I did not live with him, and he sud-
denly left the country.
Mr. Bureham—What is the Town for his deserting
you
Applicant—Re robbed his employers, and escaped
from the officers of Judie*.
Mr. Burcham—That's not exactly deserting you. It
looks more like deserting justice. What property have
you, that you require protection
Applicant—l am • nurse, and have acquired a little
property, which I wish to have protected to support me
in old age.
Mr. Solomon here pointed out • clause in the AM of
Parliament which empowered his worship to give pro-
tection to • deserted wife in such a peculiar case.
Mr. Burcham, after perusing it, granted the order.
