Had been struck with a atone in the head before he
struck Houneell, who was a stranger to hini—John
Rawlins, labourer, was one of the men who went up
to the plantation. When he got there he saw
Taylor and Hounsell in the road. Taylor was 'men-

Was itt the police force five weeks. He left
suddenly, hut did not wish to say with what
character. When be went to the men he also had
a hurdle stake in his hand. The ironnd time he
struck Moulmein the latter was on his knees. Having
taken the three they led them down to the Crown
Inn,
_where Houpsell said that if they hid bebn
armed with Midis, they would have given their
baptore cold blood for sipper. This being the whole
of the evidence, Mr. Howard addressed the Bench
for the defendanta, bat was stopped in his remarks,
as Mr. Wilhelm said that the Bench considered that
if the prisoners were committed, no jury would
convict Mr. Andrews thought it was impossible
for the magistrates to tell what a jury would not do.
Mr. Williams said that was the conviction of the
magistrate* and they felt botind to at on it.—Mr.
Ahoirewe Mid that if there wits tio case for malicious
Injury, there was evidently ohe against the
prisoners for common assault. —Mr. Williams :
" Ah, a common assault is another matter
"
Mr. Howard protested against the prisoners being
tried for I marrimon assault after the higher charge
bad failed. Mr. Coombs said that the prisoners
were apprehended on the charge of * mitrimon Pe-
nult, and that Mr. Andrewe coiticlyttudonbtedly,
proceed against them on that Charge, but it was not
urinal mime to try a lighter charge after the higher
one Lad failed.—Mr. Andrews said that evee if he gave
up the charge r, f assault, be should cause a summons
to be issued against the defendants for trespassing in
search of game. After some further conversation
between the magistrates and the two attorneys
engaged in the case, the defendante were set at
liberty, with the understanding that they woeld be
summoned to appear again that day fortnight
