War -office, April 2, 1863.

It is stated that this learned gentleman, who has been
suffering from severe illness so far as to incapacitate him
from atteedance to his professional duties at the court, hal
an idea of resigning his lucrative office. The name of his
SZIODOOKt ham not been mentioned, but it is understood the
emoluments are considerably be and 1,0001. a year. The
clams have recently been taken by the clerks of Mr. Ald-
ridge and Mr. Bromley, the partner of that gentleman ; end
the commissioners, on hearing applications for orders of
discharge, have, so far as the rule of the court is concerned,
kindly made an exception in favour of the clerk of that
gentlemen. Messrs. Aldridge and Bromley enjoy an exten-
sive popularity in Suffolk, being well known in that dis-
trict ; and Mr. Aldridge's retirement from his present well-
earned position would be regretted by the members of the
legal profession morally.

doubt proMpted by his attachment for the lady in question.
He would read the defendant's effort In poesy to the jury.
It we. u follow.: .

Yorget me not I
Let not the past fads from thy memory—
The heart that ne'er from thee can roam :
In health and sickness let thy motto be—
•• Heine sweet home."
(Roars of laughter.) Il there were no other letters in the
cans, he thought that the above extract would show the at-
tachment of the defendant at the time in question for the
plaintiff, and which had no doubt made him think and long
for the comforts of home with his beautiful lady, and
had suggested his effusion in which he enjoined her to make
her motto " Home, sweet home." (Laughter.) Letters from
the defendant continued to be received by the plaintiff
during the year 1860, and be (the learned mammal) also be-
lieved during 1861, whim he left town in the exercise of
his employment, and went to Wootton. Theo, however,
the letters from the defendant became more frequent,
the attachment, no doubt, progressing and increasing,
the defendant no doubt receiving ample encouragement
from the plaintiff ; and extracts from lame of those letters
he would read to them. Those letters had fortunately been
preserved, and he could read from them to show that the
defendant. although not so poetically-struck as his former
effusioo showed him to be, still, Ifire a respectable English
mechanic, his love for the plaintiff became stronger, and if
not so poetically expressed was quite as strongly shown by
his subsequent letters to the plaintiff. One of tios letters
he would read as a specimen, and although it was a solid
matter of fact one, it would show the attachment be felt for
the plaintiff, and was such a communication as might be ex-
pected from a respectable English mechanic. The first
letter he would read was dated the Ist January, 1861, and
was as follows :—" Dear B.,—Happy new year, and many
of them. You must excuse me for not writing you
on Sunday, the 29th December, 1859, but you sent use
word to meet, on the 28th, and I did not find it out till
I was writing. (This,thelaarned counsel remarked, probably
aroee from the plaintiff's letters being delayed.) The letter
continued—" My temper was out on Saturday, the 28th—
(laughter)—but I got started to come—but I will tell you
the reason when we meet again. Yon must excuse me not
writing you, but I could not help it. Plow to write
back by return of post, and tell me when I can meet you
again, and I will be there. Can you meet on Wednea.
day night? Beam write and lot me know what time, and
so good night —I remain, —Manaus BOUNP11117."
The next letter he would read was dated March 13, and
DM as follows :—" Dear 8.,—1 am glad to bear that you are
in good health, and I ern @prey that you could not eome on Sun-
day. I fully expected to bear from you on Monday morn-
log, and was very much disappointed when I received no
letter. lam very much surprised at what you beard from
Leyhuida and I cannot tell how each a tale got out. I am
sorry to think that you should have such a poor opinion of
me. If you take notice of everything you hear you will
find that you will haven time to do anything else." This
rimer* about Leylands and the "idle tale" arose from a
rumour that the defendant was paying attention to another
lady, and which plaintiff, like a faithful lover, had Made
inquiries about la the neighbourhood. In another letter
the defendant mid, "I received your note, and wee glad
to me the secret of your heart--(laughter)—but I could
not tell what you meant by the guard hurting
your finger. (Renewed laughter.) I am sorry for it,
but I can make them all right to night (Laughter.)
The candle is getting done ; good night. (Renewed
laughter.) You had better poultice your finger."
(Roars of laughter.) To show that the defendant's attach-
ment hedgerows' still warmer be, after signing himself Yours,
ever affectionate, Mathias Boumphrey," wrote " khnes for
you "—(a laugh)— and four ominous little crosses followed
that. In another letter he told the plaintiff that Mr. hem
got a daughter this morning—(loud laughter)—" so you
most auk him when you see him how he likes has pre ent,"
and signed himself " Yours affectionately, Mathias Bourn-
In another letter 'he wrote saying that he was
sorry that " Betsey was will," but hoped that it was not
love sicknoe—(laughter)—adding, " I has written to your
sister."
His Lordship—Have you any letter that can show the
existence of the contract alleged to (have been entered into
by the defendant to marry the plaintiff?
Dr. O'Feely—l cannot say that there is any letter in the
collection which actually point' to the fact of a contract ex-
isting between the patina, but I read the letters that show
a very warm attachment. The existence of such contract
I will show by oral testimony. In 1862 (the counsel con-
tinued) • moOes arose between the parties. and about this
time the defendant commenced paying his addresses to •
widow, and when this came to the ears al the plaintiff, she,
with the usual perception of • jealous woman, at ores went
to the defendant and demanded an explanation. He
would show that the defendant had in his letters stated
that he bad formed no other attachment but that for
the plaintiff ; and he proposed to prove, by the evi-
dence of a Mrs. Jevoos, that he bed conducted him-
self to the plaintiff as if he were engaged to her and in-
tended to make her hie wife. In one of his letters,
which would be the Last that he (the learned gentleman)
would read, the defendant said to the plaintiff —" I bops
it is cold enough for you these few days. I have been very
nearly roasted—(laughter)—for the shop is very hot—it is
very nearly as hot es love." (Renewed laughter.) In this
way matters went on until June last, when suddenly, and
without any talcum, the defendant—in the hey-day of his
affection—without any explanation broke off has engage-
meat with the plaintiff, and married • widow who was pos-
itioned of some property. This was • result that could
scarcely have been expected after the expressions of attach-
ment made by the Wendel:it, which the letters read bad
shown—it was scarcely to be beloved that he would have
so soot forgotten the lady to whom he was so much at-
tached ; but such was the case, and he (the learned mantel)
hoped the jury would give the plaintiff sabstantial damages
for the wrong she had sustained by the conduct of the de-
fendant. The learned counsel then called evidence sup-
porting his statement.
Mr. Waddy submitted that there was no case on which
they could go to the jury.
His Lordship said it appeared to him that there was no
came at all. It had not been shown for the plaintiff that
there was any contract of marriage.
Dr. O'Feely submitted that the letters and subsequent
conduct of the defendant were proof of an implied contract.
Ilia Lordship said the only evidence was that spoken
of as to the defendant saying to the plaintiff that they
bad better get married, but she had said she would
"wait a little loager"—(a laugh)—and it was put off.
If any man asked a young woman to marry him, and she
said ' No," and put it off, it absolved him from his con.
tract, and she could not come and say that he bad broken
his promise.
Dr. O'Feely submitted that there was a promise and the
plaintiff's remark about a " little longer" was only made
for the defendant to better bas circumstances, so that they
might be more comfortable.
His Lordship said that the only evidence of his bettericg
his condition was his marrying the widow with the pro-
perty. (Laughter.) He thought there was no case for the
jury
The plaintiff was consequently nun-suited.

Sergeant Little, No. 8 L, apprehended them immediately

THAMES.

A foreigner, named Henry Snail, aged 27 years, was
brought before Mr. Woolryeh, charged with stealing a large
quantity of property from the shop and warehouse of James
Peter Davidson aad another, matters, No. 6, Limehouse-

artmeway.
The prisoner waited on the prosecutors • few nights
since, and represented himself as a homeward bound sailor,
and in want of a respectable lodging. His appearance and
plausible manners imposed on Mums. Davidson and Co.,
and a room was 'deigned to him in the house. He went
to his apartment with • light, and it wiz supposed
he bed gone to bed. On the following morning
he was missing, and it was ascertained that the
shop bad been broken into, and a chest of

jackets, two carte, 16 pairs of trousers, 11 Guernsey
32 shirts, 12 silk handkerchiefs, 15 cape, 3 halyard& hate,
1 scarf, 1 pair of boots, and a chest. The value of this
property was upwards of 501., and it is supposed the pri-
soner had en accomplice, who helped to carry away the pro-
piety from the house. The prisoner did not take any per
to conceal himself or the pro after the rob-
bery. He was taken into custody in eliff-2:bwaY. hi

tie, end boots. belonged to the prosecutors. Mr. David-
son said, " The prisoner was actually wearing my
own boots which I left in the kitchen." Police-sergeant
Dillon, 19 If, went to a coffee-house where the prisoner
had hired a
_lodging, and there found the prosecutors' chest
and a ooesuWe portion of the stolen property. The pri-
mmer had employed various persons to pawn other things,
including • suit of clothes for 16s. About one half of the
stolen property wu still misting. The prisoner said he had
left many things at • house in Westminster, but he knew
sot the name of the street.
In answer to Mr. Woolrych, the prosecutors said the
prisoner told them he came from Liverpool to London to
join a ship there.
Mr. Woolrych—The most valuable portion of the property
has not been recovered. The prisoner is reman for •
week.

TALLOW.

(From the chortler et.Mesempolve7ell,.Brooks, and Ca,

dated Thursday evening.)
Since our report of the 27th ultimo, there baa been no
important change in the state of the tallow market. The
dose of the past month was attended with rather more
steadiness, but prices have experienced but little fluc-
tuation, the engagements open on the 31st not being of
sufficient importance to affect quotations to any material
extent, and the demand from the trade has also continued
too light to create soy expectation of a general advance.
The stock of " sorts" is full, amounting so about 9,000
make ; lint the bulk of it is firmly held, and for the next
few months arrivals will be light ; the yield of home-made
tallow, however, is on the increase, and there is a prospect of
its continuing at a moderate price during the summer;
and, so far as the yenta of consumers are concerned,
there is no expectation at present of their being
sufficient to enhance present rates. With respect to Y.C.
tallow, more uncertainty exists, and recently some consider-
able amount of speculation has been entered into, in expect-
ation of higher prices during the summer, and further on in
the year, with reference, possibly, to the chance of conti-
nental disturbances, or the contingency of a serious misun-
derstanding with America. The market closed yesterday
with a steady appearance, although a large quantity of tal-
low bad been given off during the day, on the April to June
contracts, quotations at the close being nearly the mama as
on the 27th ultimo.
The market has been inactive to-day, with sellers at
43e. 9d. for reedy delivery, 43a. 6d. to 435. lid. being quoted
for April to June, and 460.6 d. per cwt. being offered for
October to December.

....The arrivals for the Ave days ending the Ist instant, were
75 casks ; deliveries, 1,255 casks. Stock, 43,916 casks,
showing a decrease of 1,180 casks.
Town Tallow has continued steady, but the full nett quo-
tatiou has not been readily obtained. This evening the
"Letter" priori is 455., or 425. 6d. nett cash, showing a
decline of 9d. per owt. Fat, 225. 3d. per stone of 1311 e.
The usual public atlas of tallow, woos nut oil, palm oil,
he., were suspended this week.
South American tallow hes realised 43a to 43e. 3d. far
drat pipes, mostly in small quantities, the stock, about
4,500 ranks, being firmly held.
Australian has bees in very limited request, last week's
rates being generally paid. Stock, 2,500 casks.
For North Amencan there has been more demand, espe-
cially for the better sorts, which have recently been selling
below their real value ; this tallow meeting all the require.
meets of consumers, but many parcels having lately been
emoewLat forced on the market.
In Coons-out Oil there has been much &dose, and the
demand has been inactive at the quotations, Cochin selling
at 53a., and Ceylon at 50e. 6d. Sydney brings 48s. to 50e.
for good to fine.
Palm Oil is still quoted at 38s. per cwt. for fine Lagoa,
trade being dull; but as future supplies are expected to be
short, prices are likely to be maintained.
Palm-nut Oil ranges from 375. to 39e. for medium to fine,
40e. being asked for choice quality.

THE POLICE COURTS.

CLERKIINW!iLL,

William Maybroor,Tres&ly-dreesed young man,
was charged before Mr. D' ynoourt with stealing about
1,5001., the monies and property of Mr. Kennett Mackenzie,
distiller, of Whitemoss-street, St. Luke's.
After hearing the evidence, Mr. D'Eyocourt committed
the prisoner for trial.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Mary St uart, the elderly woman who claims to be a de.
soandsos of Prince Charles Stuart, and who was charged last
week with breaking a window at the residence of Lord Pal-
merston, in Piccadilly, was brought before Mr. Knox for
final examination.
The surgeon at the House of Detention sent a certificate
to the magistrate to the effect that he considered the de-
fendant sane, but labouring under a delusion tint she bad a
claim on the government, and that she was a descendant of
the Pretender.
Mr. Knox ordered the defendant to find one bail in 501.
to keep the peace for six months.
WESTMINSTER.

George Jones, a mieraislTlOOking boy, 14 or 15 years of
age, was charged with wilfully breaking a pane of glass at
the workhouse of St. Margaret's and St. John's, York-street,
Westminster.
John Best, the porter, said—Between six and seven last
night the prisoner came to the house sod applied for a
night's lodging. I had so many in that 1 could not accom-
modate him, when he said that if he did not get a night's
lodging there he would at the station. He waited a little
while, and then taking up a stone threw it through a pane
of glass.
Mr. Selfe—Was the casual ward quite full?

Sensate' Register -office was. Witneee knew A perfectly I 'erns, and in some aorta more doing, especially for the Ger.

puree in it. She put up her hand and pointed the way to
the place they wanted. Clarke was on her right side then,
sear hew pocket, and as soon as the had told then, they
huniedly quitted her. A minute afterwards she put her
hand to Ur pocket and mimed her puree. As no other per-
sons had been near her, she felt satisfied that they had
robbed her; consequently she went up the Waterloo-road
in pursuit of them, and about a quarter of an hour after-
wards showily the prisoners in custody, and at once identified
them as the thieves.
