child he had an interview with her aunt, and recommended
her to remove the child, and a fortnight after, when he saw
her again, there was am irked improvement in her appear•

that alie did not intend to appear as a witness. He obtained

The Chief Justice said they bad nothing to do with the

The was the case for the plaintiff.
Screeant She* then adds., feed the jury on behalf of the
defendants. He said that his learned friend had conducted
the sem as the part of the plaintiff with very
great fairness, except in one particular, where be
had attempted to show that certain matter of a
peculiar character, contained in a book used by religious
peewee of the catholic persuasion, had been called to the
&Medea of the plaintiff by one of the defendants, when it
appeared that there war out the slightest ground fin such
an insinuation, and it was char that it could only have
been stated for the purpose of creating a prejudice. Ho
agreed with his learned friend that this case ought to be
tried without the introduction of any religious feeling, and
that the matter should be treated as though it was the case
of any other Sundachool in which one of the inmates
was represented to hare heels harshly and cruelly used.
He contended that upon evidence such as that which
had Lien adduced, no jury could come to the conclusion
that the offence had been mnde out, and when he had laid
the real fact. of the case before them he was satisfied they
would my that the charge Lad failed altogether, and that
they would at one acquit these ladies of the charges of
brutality and cruelty that were sought to be established
against them. In the Suit place, he would ask them to
consider who the parties were against whom the somas-
bon was made. They were Isdie• of superior education,
who, from pure sae holy motives, took upon them-
selves the laborious and sometimes disgusting task of
instructing porous in the condition of life of Ike
plaintiff, and thereby enabling them to bays a better
chance of providing for themselves in the world than they
ever could hope to do if in a state of ignorance, and he
would ask the jury with great confidence what possible
motive or object thew ladies could have had for acting in
the meaner that had been stated. Charitable mutilates*
of the description of this one at Norwood existed in all
catholic countries, and these ladies, in establishing one of a
similar kind to England, could not have been actuated by
say but the best and purest motives. Although they (the
jury) might differ with him in religious opinion, he oppre-
headed they must admit that the motives of these ladies must
he good, and they were therefore the most unlikely persons
to be guilty of such conduct as that which was ascribed to
then ea the present occasion. Ile submitted that it was
not only much more likely, hut that it was exceedingly
probable, that the charge should have been trumped up by
parties who desired to increase the prejudice that had been
created by recent events tow hieh he would not more parti-
cularly refer, and that in point of fact it was not oily sa
attempt to decry these ladies themselves, bet at the satm
tame decry the religion they professed. If the dune was
property made, he asked the jury how theresuid aegoost
foe the absence of the aunt of the plaintiff, and whether
they had had any satisfactory explanation of the cause of
that absence. If the aunt had been put in the witness-box
there would have nee. an opportunity afforded to
acre-examine her, and to ascertain who were the promo-
ters of the presseutioa, and under what circumstances it
came before the jury, and to have asurtained whether the
actirm had been brought from an honest conviction that
as matey, which demanded retirees, had bete infiieted, or
wheelie, it bad been brought solely to cast odium upon
these ladies, and the religion they professed. lle
submitted to the jury that they had a right to
have such evidence, and he thought that when
they coupled the absence of the aunt with the
eiremostatios of the matmerna having been filled up with the
games of Cardinal Wiseman and Hr. Aehilli, he believed
they would feel that the proceedings bad been instituted
by other motive* than the (Air and honest one to obtain
redress for an injury that had been inflicted. The learned
serjeant then commented upon the evidence of the plaintiff,
and said that he was in • position to show that every state-
ment she bad made with regard to the treatment she
represented she bad received was false In every parti-
cular. If the ladies who were the defendants on the pre-
seat occasion had consulted their owa feelings, they would
have hues very desirous to avoid being dragged into a
public court, but when they knew the extent of the pre-
judice that would be created by such a charms se this, not
only against all establishments of a similar character. but
also brunet the religion they prof-rued, they felt that they
had no alternative but to come forward and ash tw, lye
Eaglok gentlemen to declare by their verdict that there
was so Imandation fur the foul charge that war made
mains' them. lle adulated that the catholic' of England
did (eel some alarm at the prejadiees they had to coattail
with, and although for the thirty-live years he had
beta at the bar, be had sees in an Engin! court of
justice any differeeee made between a Protestant or catholic,
a Jew, or pumas of any other relives ; yet he must say,
that some proceedings that had recently taken place did in.
spire him with some feeling of alarm, and • dread that
case a might arise wherein the prejudices of education
might induce a jury to art contrary to justice. In the pre-
sent instance, leurover,he heel nu such fear, and these Ladies
new came boldly before their country to establish their
innocence o the charge. The learned serjeent then
remarked upon the case a. it appeared on the
part of the plaintiff, mud having reminded the jury
that all the amount that was paid fur theme
orphan c'tildren was 121. a year, he held that for this small
sunk it easels sr that they received an duation almost be-
yond the position in lite they were Intended to fill, and he
should he aide to prove by clear and positive to timon) that
so far from ail Cruelty having been hied towards the
plaintiff, that for the whole period she had been in the esta-
blishment she had been treated with the utmost kindness,
sad indeed, at etion. He then observed that with regard
to one of the defendant., Madame de l'Espinaae,
known in religion as La Sear St. Louis de
Belassue, viie was not at the iostitutien at all
until nearly a year and a half after the plain•
tiff went there, and that she consequently could
ant pesohly have had any share in those proceediegs
that were complained of. He twat referred to tee trans-
sedan of the presentation of the robs to Cardinal Wiseman,
sad he observed that the plaintiff was evidently sailer a
mistake altogether, kw she axed the peeled Is Noma-

bee, positively stating at themes. time that he had not then
reeetved hi appointment as Cardinel, bat was about to pro-
ceed to Rome, when st was well known list in November
the whole country was in a state of eseiteineut in con-
s pane: of the return of the Cardinal to England,
and the address he published. The learned eerjeent
malted.d a eery eloquent speech by stating that he
shbuld now call the wanesees for the defence, and when
' the jury bad he .rd the evidence, he should lay before them,
be felt assured they wait' say that the defendants were not
guilty of the charge made mallet them.
' bladaine Wardle, the former lady superior of the con-
vest, was then examined. She gave her evidence in French,
which was translated by an interpreter. She said that she
' held the office of superior of the establishment at Norwood
uatil the month of June, 18.31, when the defendant,
Madame de l'Espinasse, succeeded her. There was an
eaphauage attached to the convent, for the edit.
Maim of the poor, toil the chief aim of the
ideation afforded them was to enabn them to
abide their living in the world. They were taught read-
iest writing, grammar, how to wash, &e., and they as-
ibiNd in doing the work of the house. They usually rose
at Ultimo. four or five, and went to bed at eine. and dif-
hew periods were allowed them for recreation during the
dee. They had fur their meals daring the day soup, bread
mad cheese, fruit, and vegetables, mad four tames a week
they hail meat. The trial class room was • bugs room,
with two windows in it, and the faces of the children were
turned to the wall to p it them from having the tempta-
tion of speaking. They were
for any lengthened period, but were always permitted to
have their meals and to take exercise during the day.
When the plaintiff came to the institution she appeared to
be very weak and feeble, and appeared scrofulous, and
seemed whine something the matter with her num. Only
121. was paid with her tor one year, and she was treated
with every leinduese and attention while she wee in the es-
tablishment.
Crosseezemined—Cerilinal Wiseman paid her the 121., that
was all she received. The Cardinal did not bring her him-
self to the iustitutioa, but he had a very great kindness for
her. There was no regular dietary table escept for the
poor children. The boarders were better fed. There were two
chums of Rana is the atablishment, lay and clerical, sad
. .

one of each class superintended the kitchen arrangements.
A certain amount of food was allowed for the children, but
she believed they always had more. When any of the
children required it meat was given to them every day.
They always had roast meat fur dinner on Thuredays. It
was either mutton r beef. Would swear that one kg et
mutton was not all that was placed upon the table for di•
dinner of seventy or seventy-live children. If one joist
way not enough, another was always placed on the table.

AVOWIT 6.

The came was resumed this morning at 10 o'clock by the
contamation of the cammination of witnesses for the de-
fendants. _ _

Madame de I Espouse, one of the defendants, examined
by Mr. Willer-1 was the superior who succeeded Madam*
Dosnille at Norwood, and my duties commenced on the
23rd June, 1851. Define this, I was connected with the
convent at Norwood by being • member of the head este-
blinliment in France. I continued to fill the situation of
surcrior at Norwood until the plaintiff, Henrietta Griffiths,
left. Ido not think I ever punished her in any way, in
ever ordered any punishment to be inflicted upon her. I
never ordered her to be placed in the class of trial or in the
kitchen. I remember observing that the plaintiffs left eye
was interned about the middle ofJuly, 1851, and Dr. Chap-
man was immediately called in to attend spun her, and he
gave directions with regard to the treatment she should
undergo, and thew directions were caroled out joinery
ticular. It was by his directions that the plaintiff par-
was
placed in au obscure chamber. The room wee darkened by
riming the shutters and adding a curtain. She was not
always kept in the same room after the doctor pve those
orders. At one time she was placed in a room which is
now need as the class of trial room. There an two mode-
rate-sired windows in it. She had the opportunity of sit-
ting down Hobe pleased in this room. At first she was not
allowed to see any of her companions because she had en
eruption upon her skin, and her bed wee taken into the
room. When she had been a short time in that room she
was removed to another on the second floor. This room was
a dormitory,and it Moline window in it. It was • small room
and it had been used before as • bedroom. It was 10 or 11
fee: long by 12 broad. The room on the sealed floor
was darkened in the same manner as the other.
The plaintiff was subsequently removed to a third room in
the cornet. This was done, in order that she might be
more comfortable. I think she had either • stool or • chair
to sit upon in both these rooms. I am not sure whether
any of her companions visited her while she was on the
second door, but they certainly did so when she was ia the
room in the manse/ The plaintiff after this was sent to
the porter's room, which was also darkened. The room in
the entered was eight feet long, and perhaps five feet
broad. She was not kept in that room long, became I re-
marked that it was very small, and she might suffer from
it. All the rooms were darkened, in acoordanee with the
directions of the doctor. She was never placed in any
other rooms than those I have mentioned When Dr.
Chapman saw the plaintiff he gave directions that she
should have meat twice a day, at her dinner and supper,
and that she should have porter once • day. The
meat was to be roast meat. Ile also ordered her medi-
cine. All his directions in these respects were earned out.
I am not able to say whether she took her medicine or not,
' but the sister of the infirmary can better answer the queue
Lion. It is not true that the plaintiff was ever punished in
the way she his stated, or that upon any occasion she was
compelled to prostrate herself on her face en the ground.
I swear that she was never forced in any way to go to con-
fession. We forte our children. I swear no threat
was ever made to her to induce her to go to confession. I
remember the aunt of the plaintiff asking for permission to
take her to see Mr. Alexander. It is not true that I re-
fused until the aunt threatened to go before a magistrate.
I did not say
the
at first, became it is contrary to our
rules to send the children to Louden to see doctors ,• and
I wished to ask permission of the ereasil of the establish-
ment ; and in five minutes I raid the pleietife aunt
that she might take her to Leedom * eamesit en *Wit.
The plaintiff went away with bee mat, end I de net
think she returned foe three days. The aunt never rends
any complaint to me of the treatment of her niece, bust en
the contrary she always appeared gratehd reed thankful Orr

because I observed that she was animated by a mere
insubordinate disposition after she bed been with wont
Every time ohs went to era Mr. Alexander, she was wee*
reeled by some one from the convent to take care of her.
The plaintiff finally left the newest in January of the pre-
sent year. The reason she went was that it was represmalnd
to me that Mr. Alexander wanted to see her three time •
week, and I told her aunt I thought it would be Wigs
that she should be removed to London altogetiMe, os
this would have interfered too much with tie rube
of the establishment. It is not true that the plaintiff was
ever forgotten for a day and • night while she was in the
darkeoed room Such a thing would be impossible, beams
the nuns sloop every night in all the rooms in which she
was placed. The room in the entresol was not generally used
as a bed-room, but it had • bed in it. I ant sure she was
never forgotten Ia that room for • day and • night. I de-
clare that all the time Henrietta Griffiths was in the
convent she was treated with kindness and afftetion,
and always bad sufficient and wholesome food. I tuned
the evidence given yesterday by Madame Denville with
regard to the management of the establishment, and the
food, exerein, Lc., and what she stated was true. I con-
tinned the same system she hod practised after she left,
with some little alteration. The orphans have four meals
bbreakfast, dinner, " puter," and supper. For
ing they have soup, bend, butter, cheese, fruit or
preserves, and sometimes milk. They do not have
all these things together, but they are changed alternately.
They always have soup and bread, and one of the other
things I have mentioned. For dinners they have soup,
five time. • week meat with vegetables, and on the other
days pudding with vegetables and bread. The other meals
consisted of pretty nearly the muss artiolee as the break-
fast. For supper they have vegetables and tea. I would
observe that there are generally about 30 children In deli-
cate health, and they always have meat for their supper.
This diet was changed up°n several occasions by the medi-
cal orders, and for some time the children bad café oat last
for breakfast. When the cholera also was prevalent the
children were sot allowed to have any vegetables, and they
had meat instead. I knew what quantity of meat was al-
lowed to the children, but I cannot recollect what it was at
thin moment. The weekly consumption of meat in the home
was from three hundred and fifty to three hundred and seventy
pounds. The average number of inmates in the house
during the time Henrietta was there was over • hundred.
The youngest child in the boon is four years and • half
old. The children are allowed to go out for an hour to walk
after their dinner, and in summer half an hour after their
breakfast. In addition to the anal period allowed for
women, the little girls are allowed half an hour more to
play two or three times • day. Then are seventeen acres
of la, d and woods attached to the house. All the orphans
do sot pay for their education and the care that is taken of
them. Charitable persons pay 121. • year for some of them,
and the others are kept out of pare charity. M. a year is
not enough to pay fee the expense of • child, but we are
obliged to tint up with it, and I
that is offered. We support thirty-two children for
wham nothing whatever is paid. Upon recollection, I
find that fifteen only are supported entirely, and
the remainder of the thirty-two are partly supported
by the establishment. Our establishment is inspected from
time to time by ladies and gentlemen, and we show them
erg rything connected with the orphanage. I swear that
the plaintiff wan treated in any way differently to the
other children, except under the orders of Dr. Chapman. I
believe she was treated more favourably then the others,
Meson we hid • special interest in her.

Cans-esamintd—When I first become superior, there
were four or five children in the trial class. I don't know
how lung they stood in it. I was anxious they should re-'
turn to their ordinary tutors es soon cc possible. The usual
term for keeping the children In the trial clam was a week,
but sometimes they remained longer. I have had a child
n•li me to let her stay there longer, that she might correct
herself. (A laugh.) In general they do not like
the trial elms. The child I refer to desired to
remain in the trial elev.@ for an indefinite period,
hut I would not consent. Iler fault originally was, that
she had not followed the rule. of her clays. I don't know
how long she was in the trial clam, perhaps a week or a
fortnight, hut I did not pay much attention. I generally
did pay attention to the period the ehildre r were in the
trial class. I now remember this child warn in the trial
class for Afteen days. She was Is very good health both
baton and after she had been placed in the trial elan. The

trial demo= not a severe punishment to a child. When
I came to the establishment it was not the prune* to place
the ebildren with their faces to the wall. That system had
been elvinged. 1 don't know why it was changed. We du
not always treat our children in this same way. The
present punishment in the trial class is, that they are
separated from the other children, and are not allowed
to speak to one another. They rarely pass more than the
afternoon is the trial clam. I should calculate they are
never there men than six hours during the day. The rest
of the day la occupied is other ordioary avoestioos. It may
have happened when it has bails rainy weather that thty
have passed twelve hours in the trial clam room. Ido not
think under ordinary circumstances they were ever kept
there more than seven or eight hours. They learn their
lessons in the trial room. Their meals were to be taken to
them in the clam room also.

At this stage of the case the witness raid she was fired,
and requested permission to be allowed to retire for • short
time. The court oosscquently adjourned for a few
minutes. . _ .

The cross-examination of the witness wan then pm-
, inked with. She said the plaintiff was placed in • dark
room probably for about four months during 1861. She
was first placed in • dark room in July, and she came
came out in November. She was getting better when she
was taken out of the portrese's room, and I think at that
time Dr. Almada said he did not ears about her being
plated in a dark room. I should not have taken her out of
the dark room if the doctor bad not recommended it. I
have no doubt that Dr. Chapman gave the order, bat I can.
not recollect the circumstance particularly. Ido not think
she had actually lost the sight of her eyes when she came
oat of the dark room. The complaint in the eyes continued
to increase from the time she was first attacked. Her eyes
were mach worse when she came out of the dark room,
aad it appeared almost certain that she must lose the eight
of one eye, and the other was threatened. It was not by
the desire of the plaintiff herself that she left the establish-
ment. Her aunt was told that she could not be
all.wed to remain any longer la the establish-
ment. I did not know that Henrietta had an
anal until :she came to the minuet. No letter
can be sent from the cstablishaisat unless I reed it, and I
read almost every letter that is sent. I do not remember read-
lag any letter written by one of the other orphans to the
plaintiffs cud in whichsh• informed her that Henrietta had
lost the sight of one eye. 3 arranged that the plaintiff shoats
go to Mr. Alexander's the second time by an omnibus or
in a cab in order that her aunt might miss her aad not
see her. I arranged the plan myself. I did not consider
it • trick. I had my reasons for meting so. I did not ask the
meat to come to the convent on the very day this happened.
At this time I wished to get rid of the plaintiff altogether,
sad when her aunt took her away the first time I wished
that she would not bring her back. I am not hound to
give any reasons to the parents of • child I wished removed
from the establishment for misconduct. A letter was
written to the plaintiff • aunt, requesting her to come to
mho har.nisee to Mr. Alexander, but nothing was said in it
about her taking her away altogether. The plaintiff was
placed la heir different dark rooms altogether. I cannot re-
collect the exact time Heariette was confined in the smaller
room. There was a padlock to the room, but it was not
made use of. lam assured that she was never locked up.
The lock of the padlock did not shut. She remained in the
room voluntarily, until the doctor ordered her to mime out
to take exercise. I had difficulty to persuade her to take
exercise. The poor child was very weak, and 'offered
very much from her eyes. She wanted • great
deal of care, and her constitution appeared very
vouch injured. The small room was kept as a
sort of spare room. I know what doing penance means,
aad I hope to do penance all the days of my life. Prostra-
tion is not considered a penance. It is done in the church.
We throw ourselves upon the ground with our arms ex-
tended in the form of • cross, and our face to the floor, and
we pray in that position. I do not think I am brought
here to describe the private life of the nuns. Prostration
is not enjoined by any doctrine of our religion, and as to'
what passes between the priests and ourselves upon the
subject of penance, I appeal to the justice of his lordship.
Mr. Chambers said he was satisfied. He did not think
he ought to pursue the inquiry any further.
Cross examination continued—The orphans had to en-
dure many severe punishments. They were pieced
alone in the middle of their class—a paper was pin-
ned round their head— and, I believe, another very
serious punishment to the children was that of placing
a red gown over their ordinary dress. If this pu-
nishment did not have the desired effect, the next
proceeding was resorting to the tri .1 clam. A regular ac-
count was kept of all the provisions consumed in the house.
I have not got the book with me, but I will send for, it, if
you wish. I know very weU that one of the charges made
against me in this action is that of not providing a sufficient
quantity of food for the plaintiff and the other children. I
have not brought the butcher's bills with me, but I will
send for them, if they are required. The boarders have the
Name description of meat as the orphans, but they pay 30f.
a year for their board, a..d of course they are better,
treated according to their position and means.
When I stated the mustier of persona contained
in the establishment, I forgot to state that there
are two priests who officiate in the establishment
and who are provided with fond from the house. There is
an annual subscription relied to support e4hteen orphans
who are given to me by the committee. This year I have
not yet received sufficient to support these eighteen orphans.
The boarders pay their own expenses. The nuns live upon
their dowry. • Some of the orphans are maintained by the
collection I have mentioned, and the parents of others ray
for their board, and the remainderare kept by the nuns.
Reexamined—l do not remember the plaintiff ever say-
ing anything to see about the presentation of a robs to Car-
dinal Wieesnae, or making • complaint of any kind upon
the subject.
By Mr. Chambers—Cardinal Wiseman visited the esta-
blishment several times. He saw Henrietta Griffiths
in my presence, at least while I was superior of the convent.
The cardinal saw all the children when he came, and I have
no doubt he saw the plaintiff among them. I generally was
with the cardinal all the time he was in the house. lam

room for three or four maths, sad of some at that time

doubt that the malady was the result of • scestaless habit
of body. The eye at one time had got nearly well, but the
plaintiff throw It back by going out one night widest per-
mission to are 'reworks, and it got much worse afterwards.
In witnesses opinion the diet of the mtablishment was
quite soilliont for the children, and they were all very
healthy, sod there had sot been a single death amongst
them clue be had attended the establishment.
Porpoise witneee—l believe you do not pro-
fess the rem these ladies do ?
The t.hief mid the learned serialist ought not to
gat meitier It was an insult to him and to the jury.
What bed leo with the religion of the witness
Cross- He knew all the rooms in the house.
He believed that two of the rooms that were darkened as
he had directed were sho•vn to him, and he ordered one of
the rooms to be changed because there was not sufficient
ventilation in it.
Ile examined—He had had a great deal of experience in
diseases of the eye. The kitchen was a large well-ventilated
room, and he saw no damp about it.
By the Coart--Being placed in a darkened room could
not have injured the health of the patient, provided that
the room was well ventilated.

Mr. H. Street, another surgeon at Norwood, who had
been called in at th• request of the plaintiff and her aunt,
proved that be saw the plaintiff is December last, and he
attended her for the malady in her eyes. Sh• appeared to
be of very scrofulous constitution, and a weakly subject
altogether. He saw no appearance of neglect or ill•treat-
meat about the child, and from all he had seen of the
management of the establishment, it seemed to him to be
conducted with great care end kindness, and particularly in
cases of illness.
By Mr. Chambers—He had men the trial class room. It
was an ordinary sized bed room.
By the Court—He did not think that keeping a child of
the age of the plaintiff at different intervals during the day
in this room would beat all calculated to injure the health
of such • child.

Muss Bliw Forbes Leith said 1 em a member of the
establishment at Norwood. I em one of the nuns. I think
I first went there in September, 1848. I know the nature
of the regulations of the establishment, end am acquainted
with the diet. The orphans certainly had meet five
days in every week. I do nut know the exact quantity
allowed for each child, but at all events it ass ample.
I know of my own knowledge that from MO
to 375 pounds are consumed every week, and six poor per.
sons are supported by whet is left on the plates. When the
plaintiff first came to the convent, the was very ill, end she
told me she had had a fever, end a very °Kinky* smell
came from her filo., and her nose appeared flattened down.
The doctor put some questions to her, and she said she had
fallen from s swing while she was in France, and hurt her
nose, and the doctor said he had no doubt the bones of the
nose were injured. I had the charge of the clam in
which the plaintiff was placed, and slim of the class
of trial. The only punishment inflicted apes the
be
that I know of was a piece 4,1 limos
being pinned round her head with the word' moist Toes
de cet enfant " upon it. This punishment was inflicted
upon her in consequence of her having taken away some of
the needles belonging to another child. The plaintiff was
afterwards placed in the trial class room ; but I sea state
positively that neither her nor any of the ether &Wm

were ever kept in that room with their feces to the wall
from half-past 4ln the morning till 9at night. I remem-
ber the presentation of the robe to Cardinal Wiseman.
The plaintiff wee permitted to come with the other child-
ren to lee the ceremony, but I heard of her being re-
quired to do anything or to my anything, or that she
made any complaint in reference to the transaction.
She was not in the trial elms at this time, but, on the con-
trary, a lurk of satisfaction had been given to her. I re-
member her eyes being affected, and I em quite sure that
she had meat after Dr. Chapman directed it, and that she
also had porter or beer. The beer that was supplied to her
was good boer, and I heard of her having water given
to her coloured with beer The breakfast soup was made
of dripping, with broth added to it. When she was in the
kitchen she had nothing to do but to wash plates, and she
used to gather vegetables in the garden, but did nothing
likely at all to injure her health.
Crom-matnined—l hove been • nun ten years. Origi-
nally I belonged to the parent establishment in France. I
am thirty years of age. I have no objection to tell you my
age.
The Chief Justice—When a lady is a nun, she has no ob-
jection, of course, to tell her sr. (A laugh.)
Witness—l believe the plaintiff was fourteen or fifteen
days in the trial class room. She was only there once. I
knew she was of a very scrofulous habit, and I believe that
at one time she did not have enough meat. The trial class
is the mast severe punishment we have. This child never
inspired me with any confidence. Her manners were not
frank and aboveboard. I don't know anything of her dis-
liking to go to oonfmaion.
Mr. Chambers—ls it not considered • good thing for a
child to go to mafession ?
Witness—l am a catholic.

Mr. Chambers—That is no answer to my question.
Witness—l think it is • very proper one.
The Chief Justice—You mean, of course, that being a
Roman catholic, you of course think it • good thing for •
child to go to confession
Witness—Yes, my lord.
Cross-examined— If • child neglected to co to confession,
it would of course be noticed. In case • child refused to
say its prayers, I should endeavour to bring it to a sense of
its duty to God, and should probably order it to undergo
some slight punishment, such as kissing the ground. Any
painful or troublesome set I should
as
• penance.
In our religion there is such an act as prostration. I re-
member the robe being presented to Cardinal Wiseman, and
the children who were entrusted to present it were cer-
tainly supposed to be the children who had worked the
rob*. One of the priests attached to the institution was
present when the robe was presented, I have no doubt.
It being found to he impossible to conclude the ease
to-day, it was again adjourned.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.-oLouczaTeit, Auo. 8.
The commission was opened hero at a late hour last
night, their lordships not having arrived from Monmouth
until 7 o'clock in the evening. Their lordships attended
divine service at the cathedral this morning, and the courts
were opened at 12 o'clock. There are 62 prisoners entered
in the calendar, besides the; cams from Bristol, which ere
not yet entered. There is one ease of murder, one of high-
way robbery, six of burglary, two of perjury, two of anon,
and one a chugs of returning from transportation. Among
the cases is one of some interest, in which a miller is
ahuged with setting ire to his own premises. There are
upwards of thirty witnesses to be examined in this case.
Among the city oases is one in which the late Sheriffof Glou.
pester, who absconded to America last year, and was brought
back to this city, is charged with several (urgent'. The
cause list contains 16 entries, of which two are special juries.
One of these is an action of libel brought by a Cheltenham
attorney against the proprietor of the Clieltenttarri ExCURIALT.
Sir Creswell Creswell disposed of six causes before the
rising of the court at six o'clock this evening, but none of
them involved any point of interest.
WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WELLs, Aucuer 5.
The Commission for the Summer Assize fur the county
of Somerset was opened at Wells, yesterday, by Mr. Baron
Platt. His lordship was detained on the road from Bridge-
water to Glastonbury. One of the wheels of the carriage
in which be was riding became obstinately " locked" and
would neither move round nor move on. The carriage was
unable to proceed, and a gentleman in a gig drove the
learned judge to Glastonbury, where he procured a car-
riage and arrived in Wells between 7 and 8 o'clock.
The High Sheriff for the county, Montague Gore, Esq.,
and a numerous asemblage who had been waiting lot
some time, met and escorted his lordship to the city. Mr.
Baron Martin arrived in a private carriage at eleven o'clock
from London, where he had been] to assist Mr. Justice
Erle.

Tisk lordships attended divine service on the following
amnia( at the cathedral, attended by the deputy recorder
he the city, J. M. Carrow, Esq., the mayor of Wells
miff amparatiaa. together with several magistrates and
NW The sermon was preached by the sheriff's
t►c Bev. Beanies. Their lordships proceeded
to smarts immediately after the service was over. Mr.
Bares Martin presided at nisi prius, and Mr. Baru Platt
at the mown bar. Both courts were opened at twelve
_ _

The atunbcr of causes entered for trial was twelve, of
which live were marked for special juries. The case of
" Bresnan v. Pearuddocke" (special jury), an action to re-
cover damages fors breech of promise °funnier, was the
only ow which elated much interest. Two of the remain-
ong ewes were undefended, and in two When verdicts were
aken by commit.
The calendar contained the names el 62 prisoners for
trial, charged with the following offences, vie. :--11lurder,
4; manslaughter, 2; malicious wounding, 2; arson 2; as-
sault and robbery, 1 ; burglary, 4 ; rape, 3; perjury, 2 ;
riot (at elution election) 9 ; uttering a forged note, 1 ;

breaking, 2; obtaining by false pretence., 1 ; endeavouriug
to conceal the birth of • child, 1; larceny, 2 ; and misde-
meanor, 3. This was a very unusual number of prisoners.

THB POLICE COURTS
_ MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Pierre Buquet, the Canadian, who figured so ludicrously
with his patron, the eccentric Capt. Actorley, in a scene
i last week n the Court of Chancery, applied to Mr. Hard-
wick for his assistance to get his papers and testimonials out
of the hands of Capt. Aeherley.
Prom the statement of the applicant which, however, was
not quite clear owing to his imperfect English, it appeared
that he and various other Canadian settlers. had obtained
grants of land from government. The Roman catholic
priesthood, in conjunction with the authorities bad, as
alleged, deprived him and others of their locations, and, in
order le obtain redress, be had eons to this country about
a twelvemonth ago to memorialise the Colonial once.
Unluckily, he came across Captain Aeheriey, and
being quite ignorant of that gallant gentleman's public
character, he accepted his proposal to place him-
self and his business under his protection, on the
insurance that Captain Aeherley would very soon
get him all the justice be deserved. After much delay he
was persuaded to accompany Captain Aeherley to the Court
of Chancery as a suitor to the Lord Chancellor, but the
captain so contrived matters as to get himself turned out of
court neck and heels, with an intimation that more serious
consequences would follow a second breach of legal etiquette.
He had now had enough of Captain Achsrley's patronage,
and being desirous to get back to his own country, he had
applied for the restoration of his paper', which were of con-
sequence to him. Captain Acherley had demurred to the
request, and he now hoped the magistrate could assist him
with his authority,
Mr. Hardwick did not clearly see hew he could assist the
applicant. He would, however, send an officer to try what
could beAOllll.

--firaSdiesrre ported yesterday oat he had bean unable
to meet with the captain, but had left a manage at his
lodgings, which would perhaps have soma effect.
Mr. Hardwick intimated if nothing short of a summons
would do, it should be granted.
WESTMINSTER.
_ .

Thom, Colfau, Wt7ostana; charged with having frau-
dulently obtained and disposed of a vast number of por-
traits and miniatures from persons of almost every grade,
underwent another examination.

The first case proceeded with was that of having
pawned Lord Sandy'. portrait.
His lordship said that Collins applied to him by letter
inquiring whether he would wish to have his portrait
engraved and published in some work in progress. Witness
declined, and beard no more about it that he could remem-
ber. lie w the prisoner, and had no knowledge of
the means by which he could have become possessed of his
portrait
Henry Smith, a sergeant of the detective police, !proved
that the prisoner was found in possession c.( the pawn-
broker's ticket of the picture when apprehended. It was
endorsed with his lordship's name in (as witness believed)
the prisoner's writing.
The prisoner upon this charge was remanded.
The charge of obtaining four portraits of ladies from M.
Clandet's, was then completed. The prisoner borrowed the
pictures as specimens, with an undertaking that they
should be returned in a few days. The witness who bad
given them to hiss was in a position, by reference to her
books ohm the past examination, to state that he obtained
the specimens in question, which were worth 10 guineas,
between the 21st and 29th of May.
Mr. Samuel James Wood, pawnbroker, proved that the
portraits were pledged by the prisoner on the 22nd of May,
fur 11.
In cross-examination witness said that priientr bad
pawned a great many pictures at his shop. He had taken
some out, very few, though, compared with the number
pawned. There had been one or two taken out within two
months.

Sergeant Smith proved receiving the ticket of the por-
traits from the prisoner. It was endorsed " Specimens of
Clandet's." _ _

The prisoner wu committed for trial, Mr. Din's (who
appeared for Collins) stating that the prisoner would reserve
Ins defence.
The hearing of the other charges wu postponed.

MARKETS.

SUGAA..—The average price of Sugar, tho produce of
the British powesainna in America, computed from the re-
turns made in the week ending the 3rd August, 1852, is
22a. Sid. Sugar, the produce of the Mauritius, 20.. 2d.
Sugar, the produce of the East Indies, 21.1.. 311. The ave-
rage price of the three foregoing descriptions of Sugar,
jointly, is 21s. 9fd.

BRISTOL, AUGUST 8.
Suoart.—The market his been extremely dull this week,
and in the few transactions reported rather easier prices
have again been accepted. Refiners' produce meets with a
moderate sale, but the demand iv far from brisk or general ;
the better deseriptions of crushed, however, and which have
been for some time neglected, have at length attracted
more attention, and this is considered a good feature in the
market.

In Itow there hu been more business doing here this
week, without, however, altering quotations.

COTTON.—LivinrooL, Anti oar 6.—Occasionally sales
of common American cotton have been made at a low. r
point during the week. The concession, however, at no
moment became so general as to form a reduced market,
while yesterday and to day • steady and tiros tone his
shown itself, fully restoring the quotation of prices to the
scale of Friday lot. This remark applies not only to Ame-
rican of all grades, hut likewise to India, Brazils, and all
other kinds, excepting Egyptians. The common run of
Egyptians are abundantly offered at easy prices, while the
good and fine qualities are in request at steady rates, some
considerable sales of this description having been made
daring the week. The expectation of a most abundant crop
coming from the United States keeps all in check ; other-
wise, the confidence of our speculators and consumers
would hurry us en to very extended operations, and cause
a great disturbance in the price of cotton. The committee
of broken place fair Uplands at 6d., Mobile at 6i1., and
Orleans at 60., being the same as on Friday last. 7,220
American, 190 Surat, 2,050 Egyptian, and 380 l'ernam are
reported to have been taken on speculation ; and 7,280
American, 180 Surat, 110 Egyptian, 300 West India, and
1,400 Pernam, for export. Sales for the week, 57,060
bales.

WOOL.—LtvrarooL, Auovsv 6.—ln the absence of
arrivals the business doing is necessarily limited. Public
sales of East India and other kinds ore announced Jur the
10th inst. Notwithstanding the complaints of spinners,
prices continue to rule high in the country; and they them-
selves considewit in vain to expect any improvement in their
position from the reduced price of the raw material.
Luaus, Atiousa G.—ln the English wool mar•
ket there has been an average amount of business done
in combing sorts this week, and prices continue quite tiros.
Clothing wools are also in good demand.

HOSIERY, ile.—Laiceerea, August G.—The demand
continues good. Employment is general in every depart-
ment excepting the luom•branch, which is less brisk than
others. The advances in yarn have been partially esta-
blished, and no doubt will be generally, as stocks in hand
are worked up. The advances proposed in making, we
have no doubt, will be fully concurred in in a short time,
as soon as the subject has been generally discussed amongst
the manufacturers, and the season demand comes on.
Stocks are understood to be censiderably reduced, and the
harvest will probably prevent any excessive supply for a
few weeks.— Worcester Chrmick.

CORN.-CHELMSFORD, August G—We still have reports
of blight in Wheat, and from personal observation believe it
exists to some extent in the white Wheat, and the quality
must he various of this description; but, from all we can
ascertain, the red is not affected to be seriously felt. Our
supply was smaller to-day, and the few farmers holding
Wheat are unwilling to sell till they see the state 01 the
coming rop ; consequently higher prices were made both,
for white and red—say from ls. to 25.; red, 401. to 425. ;
white, 46e. to 481. Barley nominal.
LlNcove, August 6.—We had a small show of Wheat, at
our market to-day, farmers making 3e. to 4s. advance, which
checked business, and a small trade was done at about Is.
advance. Nothing doing in spring corn, great complaint of
the blight in this neighbourhood, especially where the crop
is heavy.
Divitgroor., AUGUST 6.—The atrivals from Ireland and
coastwise, sine* Tuesday, have been more liberal of oats
and oatmeal, but of other articles continue inaignifleant.
From foreign ports we have received 8,638 qrs. wheat, 2,000
gen. °ate, 2,576 qrs. betas, 6,714 rm. Indian corn, 1,029
sacks and 12,011 brls. flour, and from Canada 822 qrs. wheat
and 6,817 bele. flour. The exports in the same time com-
prise 879 qrs. wheat, 1,116 qrs. Indian corn, 227 sacks and
a,369 Ws- flour. There has been rather more activity in
the trade during the put two days, and wheat and flour
have brought the extreme prices of Tuesday in the sales
made. Distant cargoes of Indian corn have met with buyers
at 28s. 6d. per qr. for Galata, and 275. per qr. for Ibraila,
but cargoes arrived and parcels in store have been com-
paratively neglected and without improvement. The wea-
ther has been showery and wears an unsettled appearance.
At this day's market there was but a small attendance of
the town and country trade, and the business done in wheat
and flour fur consumption was limited; however, there was
a good speculative inquiry, which resulted in some con-
siderable purchases, at en advance of Id. per 701bs. on the
former and Gd. per brl. on the latter article. Oats and oat-
meal were almost entirely neglected, and again in favour of
this buyer. Barley, beans, and pease were in moderate re-
; tail demand, at about late rates. Floating cargoes of Indian
corn were in good request and several cargoes changed
hands at 275. per qr. for Ibraida and 282. Gd. per qr. for
Galati. Cargoes arrived and parcels in store were not
wanted and must be noted easier to buy.

WAKIIFIBLD. August 6.-Blight and mildew appear to
show themselveslore clearly as the crop of Wheat reaches
maturity, and this week complaints are very general in all
the districts south of the Humber, of course varying in de-
gree ; that injury is done there no longer remains any doubt,
and the promise ten days age of great abundance is de-
cidedly checked. The weather is important, as harvest in
early districts is now general, and will commence here
pretty actively nest Monday. Our supply of grain this
i week s moderate. Buyers of Wheat are mon disposed to
purchase than of late, and the rotes of last week have im-
proved Is. per qr. on the best qualities ; ether sorts rather
dearer. Barley nominal. Oats and Shelling so before.
Beans fully as dear. No alteration in other articles.
