mooed by Charles Forney for an asaanit, on the 27th
ApnL —Mr. Chitty, solicitor of Shaftesbury, appeared
for the complainant, and Mr. Wheelie,' for the de-
fendant... The own plainant.stafed that °nod the witnesses
be had summoned.on his way to the Court that moron&
had fallen down in a paralytic It, and he therefore
.wshed that the one should be adjourned, in order that
be might attend.—lt subsequently transpired that the
witnem in question could not give evidence as to the
aseault, bat merely as to the right of way over certain
fields in the occupation of Mr. }toddle, and consequently
the ease prooroled.—The amp/Meant stated that on
blonday, the 2701 of April, be left his house a few
minutes before sic o'clock to go to his work. He went
in tlia direction of Whitsbury Church, and through •
field in the ocumpation of Mr. Reddish There formerly was
• a stile in the 'field, but about 30 years since that was re.
.moved. He had been in the habit of using that footpath
s for the past 40 years. When he renhed the copes the
defendeet, who was Mr. Boddie's foreman, came up to
' him and ordered him to return. Complainant refund
to do ea, and the defendanteaid he should unless be was
• better man than hies (the defendant). The defendant
. tied to push him, bat he well not do so, and be then
• ersianled him He tore his shirt, and "violated my
'temper very much." (Laughter.) Before the stile was
taken down there was • regular footpath through the
field. In croes.examintion by Mr. Whatman, the oom-
plainant said it was not the first time he ha,' been ordered
oat of the field. Mr. Huddle did not dinharge him for
steeling wood, at least if he did be never told him so.—
Mr. Whatinan : How many times have you been in
gaol ?—Complaiaant : I cannot tell you how many
tines.—Mr. Whatman : Can you tell me how long you
have been there !—Complainant I remember exactly;
it wee about 2 years and 10 months, and bleseGod for it.
(Laughter.) Mr. Whstinan : When were you last in
geol!—Complainant : I wee in for a month upon • false
sensation, for aseaulting &person at Whitasbury.—Mr.
Whatmen : Upon what charge were you confined the
time before! Complainant : I underwent six weeks' im-
prisonment for leaving my wife and family. Mr.
Whatraan : Were you in prison during the year 1883!
Cempleinant: It is very likely. (Laughter.) I don't
know whether it was in 1839 I first went to poi, but it
is very likely. I might have been in gaol in ISA I
have miming my time sometimes at Whitsbary, and
sometimes in gaol. I never left my friends. I did not
offer soy resistaaos to the defendant, but when be tried
to push roe dowel tried to stand on my legs. (Laughter.)
Mr. Whansan routonded that the complainant had no
right in the flokl in question, benne there had never
been any public path there. The nonsplainant had been
discharged by Mr. Ituddle for a that, and he now
wished to annoy him by going over his land. The com-
plainant's conduct had been most impertinent, and if he
again offended he would have to answer for it. There
was no pretenoe for his assorning the right of way, and
that being the cam, the =filtrates had no jurisdiction.
Mr. Chitty submitted that it was not a question of right
of way, but of assault. The complainant who was, as •
he alleged, walking on the Queen's highway, and had
been assaulted by the defendoit, which he had no right
to do. Mr. Whatuno replied that the complainant,
being on private property, if he refused to leave, the dm
fendant had a perfect right to remove him by foroe, and
Be contended that too much Nen had not been used,—
fir. Boddie was called, who stated that he routed • farm
belonging to Lord Shaftesbury. He had neupied it
about nine years, and during that time there had never
been any footpath through those fields. He had re-
stricted the complainant from going there, but he per-
sisted in doing so.—Mr. Clsitty, in reply to the &nob,
said he was unable to call any other witness, and the
case was dismissed.

Summonses were taken out by Mr. John Brake
against William Webb, of Bonney, publican, for an
assault, and FranciaSpencer, butcher, of Southampton,
for aiding and abetting Webb to commit the assault, on
the r.ird of April. -- Mr. Hill appeared for the com-
plainant, and Mr. Chitty for the clefendants.—Mr. Hill
stated that Webb hadoffered an apology to It,. Broke,
which had been accepted. and the case had been with-
drawn. As the summons against Francis Spencer had
been granted under the wrong Act of Parliament that
would aln be withdrawn. -Mr. Chitty said he ins glad
the Bench had been relieved from hearing this case, as it
would have occupied a considerable time. The parties
it appeared were in • respectable sphere of life, and the
assault took place as they were returning from Downton
fair.--At a subsequent period, Mr. Spencer applied for
his costs, for being unnecessarily brought to the Court.
He had summoned witnesses, who had attended at great
inoonvenience He knew nothing of the arrangement
between An Webb and Mr. Brake, and therefore be
wished to be paid his expel:ins- --The Bench informed
him that the case had not been called on, but he could
sue for his expenses in the County Court —Mr. Spencer
said he should do so, and then left the Court.

ment with hard labour.

was played on the Salisbury ground on Sattunlay last.
The weather was beautifully fine, and (luring the after-

The South Wilts first took the bat, but their existence
was of very short duration, as they could only affix 49

career was even shorter, for at the time the last wicket
fell only 27 had been telegraphed. This showed a ma-
jority in favour of the South Wilts of 22; and they
went to the wickets in better spirits. Mr Style again
distinguished him.elf —making the highest more in the.
match--2L He defended his wicket exceedingly well,
anal was fortunate in making three drives for 4
each in one over. Kaye made a double number, 12,
very carefully. The innings terminated for 98a, thus
leaving the garrison 91 to get to beat. This they failed
to accomplish, making only 58, thaw leaving the South
Wilts the victors by /2 runs. The bowling of Kaye and
Mr. Ede on the part of South Wilts, and the fielding of
the latter are deserving of mention. In the second
inninp of South Wilts, Mr. Hardy, on the part of the
garrison, took no less than eight wickets. His bowling
was very effective, as well be seen by the score

E.RILLIARDIL-11ATCH POR £2oo.—On Thursday
evenings good billiard match, fur £lOO a-side, was
played at Mr. Wynne's, the Crown, H igh•street, Salis-
bury, between W. Dutton, of London, and A. Carver,
of Salisbury. Carver is a local celebrity of fair average
play, and the match on Thursday eras to play 1,000
up, Dutton giving 200 points. A word of com-
mendation is due to Mr. Wynne for the accommoda-
tion and ottrtesy which the visitors received, end
there were but two drawbacks to a very agreeable
evening—the incapacity of the marker after about
400 points had been moored, and the interruption
caused by a lot of would•lie swells, whom it were
bee flattery to call gentlemen, and who, with more
money than manners, and lee stow, kept up a
hubbub of conversation at one period of the
game that sully marred the interest. At half.
past eight the game commenced, and Carver
quickly scored 39 ; Dutton, then having got
10, ran up a splendid break of 74 without a
Hake, until he had madetbat lot all but half a &sem
He quickly added 26, and "10 to 1" was whispered
round the room. The countryman, however, crept
up to 76, but played very nervously, and did not
altar his total until Dutton had made 196. Every-
one seam astounded, except Carver, who—in justice
Whim it should be recorded-- played with unfailing
confidence and stadiums. The wore got to Detton
246, Carver 315; and soon after the figures were
changed to Dutton 320, Carver 34t Dutton then
made his quantum up to 361 in a break, including 8
of his mow well-known spot hazards. They played
on— Duttoo, be it observed most carelessly—until the
game was Dutton 339, Carver 360, when the lee-
named got a good break. caught and passed the
Londoner amidst considerable excitement. Slowly
but surely the tally went on. till Caress 561, Dutton,
501, was called. They kept about the same number
of points apart till " the Slicer," by a useful alioe
of lack at 804 to 725, bad a capital break,
and the recording was annoonoed Carver
866, Dutton 740. At this point of the gams, con-
siderable recrimination took place as to the correct-
ness of the score between Dutton and the marker,
and it most be remarked that if the niarker did me
double, by imbibition caused, he certainly more than
once put'Dufton's numbers on in an inverse ratio.
However, be that as it may, "all's well that ends
well," and so it seemed, for Carver made the game
994 to Dutton's 913. The metropolitan repre-
sentative here palled himself together, caught
his "miter," who missed "a child's cannon,"
and, amid great applause, Dutton won by six
points. For the °lowness of the match, Deft.°
Wis himself to thank, there being no doubt that he
could easily have beaten his opponent at the odds. He
played some beautiful strokee, and with consummate
judgment, but many of the lookers-on thought he
was trifling with the game, and certainly the fiia of
his smoking throughout the match, which lasted
nearly five hours, betokened a degree of supercilious-
Wei not te be approved. Carver did not disappoint
his friends, for his steadiness and perseverance de-
serve unqualified praise, but he knew he was over.
matched, and requests us to say that he will play
Dutton for £25, the game to be 1,000 op, and
Carver to receive 350 points. Should Dutton accept
this, a most interesting and close match will be the
result—Sportneg Life.
