PODMOB6 r. TOL U66AT NORTNIZII RAILWAY COMPANY.
This win an action for damages, arising out of the well-
known collision which took place at Hitchin between two
trains on this line.
The plaintiff is a wholesale tea dealer and n partner in the
firm of Podmore and Hester, Fenchurchetreet. At the
time of the accident the plaintiff wee& traveller from King's-
cross to Edinburgh and on &business excursion, and, as may
be remembered, the down train came into collision with an
excursion train at klitehin. By the collision several
carriages were smashed to pieces and the plaintiff was filing
into the road, where he lay over an hour ingreat pain, his hip
being dislocated. Whilst the operation of reduction was
being effected the plaintiff had to submit to great pain,
and the expense he was put to by his illness amounted to
2001. The plaintiff and his partner proved that their busi-
ness at Edinburgh had been very much injured by the ab-
sence from Edinburgh of the plaintiff, caused by his acci-
dent.

The negligence of the company's servants having been
admitted the o question was the amount of damages to
be awarded, and this was finally settled by the counsel
on both rides putting their heads together, when it was
agreed the plaintiff should receive 2,000/.
Mr. Edwin James, Q.C. Mr. Lush, Q.C.. and Mr. J.
Browne, appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Overend, Q.C., and
Mr. Hawkins, Q C., represented the company.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a publican,
to recover compensation in dama for false representations,
whereby he was induced to purchase the Duke of Cumber-
land public.house, in High-street, Kensington.
Mr. Serjeaot Parry and Mr. Gibbons appeared for the
plaintiff ; Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Phipson represented the
defendants.
The caw for the plaintiff was that through the false
representations of Messrs. Poole and Pinder, who were in the
defendants' service, he was induced to purchase the house in
question, the defendants advancing 1,2001, on the lease.
During the year which he had possession he lost 9001. his
takings only amounting to 201. a month, instead of 41, as
represented.
l'he defence was that the plaintiff had been told the
house was not so good as at ought to be, owing to the neg-
lect of the former landlord, but that with proper attention
it might be made a good concern.
A number of witnesses having been examined on both
aides, . .

The jury retired, and having been locked up for three
Yours, were discharged without coming to a verdict.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.—JULY 3.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Nichols.)
IN NI WILLIAM WILNON THE lIMINOZIL

This insolvent, who applied to be discharged from prison,
was opposed by Mr. Murphy, as counsel for Messrs. Abbott
and Co., brewers, and supported by Mr. Sargood.
The case disclosed some painful circumstances. The in-
solvent had been connected with a New Zealand house, and
in 1858 became agent for the opposing creditors, who had
supplied ale to 1,55 W., and bad remitted to them 7211.,
leaving them creditors to about 8001., for which he was
arrested. In 1F358 the insolvent married and went to
New Zealand with his wife, who became very ill. The illness
continued, and when he was about to return to England she
threw herself from the ship and was drowned. His own
stated mind on account of his wife's Maces had affected
him, and the conduct of another party and the outlay he
had made had deranged his affairs. Since his return to Eng-
land be had made offers of settlement.

Mr. Murphy submitted that he had preyed a breach of
trust.

Mr. Bargood insisted that the insolvent had fully ex.
plained the matter, and that he was an object of deep sym-
pathy on account of his misfortune,
. . . . . .

Commissioner Nichols was of opinion that no breach
of trust could be established. No evidence was given on
the part of the opposing creditors, and the insolvent was
the only person who had been examined.
The insolvent was discharged.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

(Before Mr. Bodkin, Aesistant-Judge.)

Patrick Fitzgerald, 30, a letter carrier, was indicted for
unlawfully and indecently assaulting two girls, named Julia
Mahoney and Julia Murphy.
Mr. Sleigh appeared on behalf of the Associate Institute
for Improving and Enforcing the Laws for the Protection of
Females ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Metcalfe.
The particulars of the case, which lasted over four hours,
cannot of course be given, but it may be stated that the
evidence disclosed juvenile depravity and parental profli-
gacy such as is seldom brought before the notice of a court
of Justice. The girls were between the ages of 10 and 12.
The prisoner was found Guilty; and
The Assistant-Judge, after a few remarks upon the
enormity of his conduct, sentenced him to be kept to hard
labour for 18 calendar months.
