TRAIN Ur A CHILD, Sitt. —John Abbott, carpenter,
was summoned before the County juatiees at Wim•
borne, es Pridayycharged with assatilting Edward
Barnes, on the flth instant. And ih his turn Edward
Barnes was charged with having, on the same day,
assaulted and beaten Thomas Abbott. The parties
were in the Chequers public house drinking on the
day in question for several hours. At length Mimi
Abbott sent in her little boy, about five years of
age, to ask his father to come bottle, instead of
going at once, the boy was detained, had beer given
him, and Barnes and he hid a boxing match. For
sonic time an went on in good humour, till Abbott
thought Barnes was getting a little too rough;
then he himself struck him three or four very viol
blows. The landlord and others who were present
told Abbott he ought to be ashamed of himself to
strike a cripple, like Barnes, in that manner,
and the Bench seethed to take a similar view
of the cue, as they fined him El and costs.
Po ne —James Fleck ford and Joseph Heck ford,

WILLIAM WARR, was summoned before tbe
Wimborue petty sessions, on Friday, for assaulting
John Swyre, on the 7th Augur.. The defendant
was in the employ of the complainant as carter. On
the day in question the oomplainant was carrying
wheat, and he considered that defendant was much
longer than he ought to be unloading. He therefore
sent for one of the wagons, and was leading the
horses down the field while two men were pitching,
when defendant came up and struck him. Soule
angry lsuguage followed, and complainant dis-
charged hirn. He had gone to work elsewhere, but
still retained possession of the cottage which hp held
under his agreement in part payment of wages—The
Bench fined defendant lOs. including costa, and told
him he moat leave the oott:ageoby that day iseek.,

A MANIAII-013 Saturday last, William Lancaster
was charged before E. Lscy and J. W. Martin,
&qrs., with using threatening language towards Mrs
Harriet Roger.. It appeared from the evidence thal
the defendant, who was formerly of a remarkably
quiet and peaceful disposition, had latterly become
very violent. in oonsequenoe of entertaining a notion
that his mother and other members of the family had
conspired _with their next-door neighbours to takr
4Mlky his life. • On Friday, he accused his mother of
having put poison in his food, and broke a quantity
of earthenware. The complainant tried to paclf3
, him, when he threatened that he would "do' for
' her iu the course of a few days. She acrordinel3
applied for a warrant against him, and the warrant
was, with great difficulty, executed by polo, (row
stables Stone, Cole, and Reeks, shortly afterward..
The bench, after hearing the evidence, considered
that it waa dangerous for the defendant to be at
large, and he was accordingly committed to the
Dorset Lunatic Asylum.
PKTTY 81141810N11, Thursday.—Before 0. Mull.tt
and H. Barrie, &qrs.—Thus. Henville, a beerhouse
keeper in Legland-atreet, was mum:died for keeping
his house open till 12.15 on the night of Tuesday
list. The case was proved by P.S. Hunt. Fined
2s. 6d. and costs.—Jositth Saunders, of Longlleet,
WWI summoned for leaving his wagon on the road
unattended in the nik;lit time on the 10th August.
Fin3d ls. and coate.--William Sounders was also
summoned for a similar offence. Ordered t pay 4s.
testa.— In the case of the Inspector of Nutsancea
v. UnarlesJohn Stone and the Surveyors of Highways,
charged with permitting &nuisance near the old turn-
pike gate, at L mgtitset, which was ordered to stand
over till to-day, the Magistrates gave thoir decision.
The facts were oriefly these. An open sewer had existed
by the road side f r the loat 50 or 60 years, since
which period Mr. Stone hair built some houses at the
place which drain into the sewer. That it war a
nuisance, no one dei,i4d, the question being whose
duty it was to abate it—Mr. Stone or the highway
surveyors. The Bench decided that the onus lay
with Mr. Stone, as were it not fur his Cottager' the
nuisance would not exist. They, therefore, ordered
that he shoull remedy the evil.

TH6 CASE OF COLONIC!, WSW:M.-This cam
came before Mr. Baron Martin, at Judges'
Chambers, on Wednesday. As reported in our
paper last week, Colonel Waugh obtained hia order
of discharge fromjethe Court of Bankruptcy on
Saturdsy. He was, however, detained ou several
writs of capias as about to leave the country, and
the Court of Biikruptcy had declined to interfere in
the matter. Three summonses had been taken out for
his release, and in two instances the paitme appeared
before his lordship.-Mr. Chidley, en the part of
: Colonel Waugh, now applied for his release on the
!three actions; Mr. Ashwin opposed for A detaining
Isteditor Milted Morton, and Mr. T. E. Nixon for a
creditor named Stanley. The other creditors did
! not oppose.-On the part of Colonel Waugh the
161st and 162nd sections of the Bankruptcy Act,
1861, were relied upon. The order of discharge had
! been obtained, and the debta were proveable under ,
' the adjudication. On the other hand it was argued !
that the discharge from the Court of Bankruptcy
would not issue until the expiration of 30 days, and !
it was submitted that it was not a case for the inter.
&renew of his lordship.-Mr. Baron Martin, on re• I
furring to the act, said tha words were "on the
order id discharge taking effect '-Mni Chidley said
he had to show his lordship that thb Order of dim- ,
charge took effect from the time it was pronounced. !
Lord Chancellor Westbury held, in the case "Ex
parte Bell, in re Laforeat," reported in the 96th
Weekly. Reporter, that the order of discharge,
although not issued for 30 days, took effect when
pronounced by the commissioner. His lordship ex•
pressed himself of opinion that as the debt was:
proveable, and was gone by the order of discharge,
the right of detention, was clearly gone.-Mr. Nixon,
on the part of Stanley, mid the application ought to
have been made to the Cottrt of Ilankruptcy.-Mr.
Chidley referred to the case of Colonel Waugh under
a former bankruptcy, in which Lord Chancellor
Westbury held that he could not interfere with the
Court of Bankruptcy, but only the ccurt out of
which the writ of capias bad issued.-Mr. Nixon
wished to bring the case of the poor man, Stanley,
before his lordship. He had been valet to Colonel ,
Wau,gb, and was Creditor for Olonej, Advantmel and!
for *ages, and all he got was a bill, Ile was hot*
In nearly a starving condition.-Mr. Baron Martin
ruled that he was bound to order the release in the 1
several actions before him.-Mr. Ashwin asked for
costs, as did Mr. Nixon, and the latter mid Colonel !
W•ugh had means, and had lived in prison eating :
and drinking like a prince (laugh)-.His lordship
held that he had no power to give costa-Order
accordingly for the colonel's release.-The case of
Colonel Waugh again came before Baron Martin, on
Thursday, at chambers, on the application for di.. :
°barge in the action "Lord Garvagh it. Waugh.
in two other suits -" Morton to Waugh" and
"Stanley v. Waugh"-the learned judge had made
orders for release.. 'there were other detainers, and
IColonel Watigh is still an inmate of Whitecross-
, street Prison, where he has sojourned on the present
occasion nearly Ewe months. A summons had been
taken out in the proceedings, "Lord Garvagh v.
Waugh," calling on the plaintiff to show cause why
the defendant should not be discharged out of the
custody of the Sheriff of Middlesex, be having
obtained his order of discharge from the Court of
Bankruptcy. The solicitors of Lord Garvagh had
endorsed the summons, that they had no cause to
show, and no objection to the release, if the learned
judge thought lit to grant it.-Mr. Bradley, froth
the office of Mr. Chidley, applied on the endorsee
mast mentidned; to ?b. Baron Martin for an order
of release-Mr. taxon Martin wished to know
whether Lord Garvagh had detained the defendant
on a writ of espies or on a ca. .a.-Mr. Bradley said
it was an execution by oa. ea., on 'judgement, which
was stronger in his favour than had there been a writ
of capias, as in the other actions before his lordship
yesterday. The solicitor for Lord Garvagh did not
oppose the present application.-His Lordship said
he had no objectim. He thought Colonel Waugh
was entitled tO ah OHO iti this ease, as he was in the
two cases which be had already granted. Colonel
Waugh was accordingly ordered to be discharged in
the action of Lord Garvagh.
