SHERIFFS' COURT.—DEC. 31.
Maws Mr. Under.*Sheriff BurchalL)
DILLON V. YALINII.-DILLON V. POI.-WILL CAVIL
Mr. Muesli appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Barrow for the
defeadanta. _ _

Theirirars two twits of trial sent down from one of the
=mew warts, the sums claimed being under 201.
Thspielntiff was • widow, living at Margate, and she sued
the de• for rent alleged to be due to her for the occu-
petiole of two cotter* at that place. She was • daughter of
sn old man named Angell, who had six or seven children, but
for years he seldom saw say of them except the plaintiff,
with whom he lived at Margate, and she had the collection
of has recite and the general management of his affairs. Some
years ago he employed Mr. Harvey Boyce, a solicitor at Mar-
gate, to prepare • will for him, under which he left his pro-
perty, which was Inconsiderable, to that gentleman in trust
to sell and to pay off • mortgage which was held by Mr.
Cobb, with directions to appropriate the balsam with two
of his sins, whom be named executors, equally among his
children. At a subsequent period the plaintiff asked Mr.
Boyce to prepare a deed of gift, which she said her father
was desirous of executing in her favour, superseding the
will, bet he declined to have anything to do with It, en the
ground that at that time, the father, from age and bodily es
well as mental affliction, was incompetent of executing each
en instrument, and inasmuch as he, Mr. Boyce, was a trustee
under a will made at • time when there mild be no doubt
es to competency. The plaintiff thee, at the wish of the
father, she said, expressed over end over again, in the pre-
sumes of witnesses, applied to amain solicitor, who lava
her instanstiene prepared a deed which gave the plaintiff
the property, and which the father executed In
in comiderstka of the ars and attention she
had bestowed arm him in his affliction during
may ysen—the plaintiff herself beteg • very severe
soliser from a diorite' iseledy alas continued to receive
the tense down to the period of her father's death, which
took plea in October le* when • claim was put forward
under the provisions& of the will, on behalf of the executors
and the other children, while the plaintiff claimed for
herself under the deed. The preeent defendants were the
tenants, and the only question with respect to them woe, to
whom were they to pay their rent. The plaintiff pioecsally
released a tenant named Chapman, and accepted Melina in
his stead, but it wee contended that the relation of landlord
sad tenant had never existed between thew, the plaintiff
having always been regarded mere] es the agent of her
father, the execution of the deed never having been
mentioned to the tenants. Theme proceedings were to en-
force the plaintiff 's claim to the rents doe In Octobee. The
validity of the deed under which she claimed was questioned
on the wound that at the time it wee execrated the tether erse
end enable to understand what was the legal effect
of Isms he wee debt. std it was suggested that it was a trick
on the pert of the plaintiff to poems herself of the whole, to
the detriment of the other children. A number of witnesses
men examined es smell side. Those for the plaintiff, including
cos of her bra bare, declared that the tether was erosible to
the last, and was ads to understand and transact ell such bu-
siness one o Ty trams in his way, though he was very deaf
send a/ictedphysically. The surgeon who attended him before
hie death deposed to that effect. The plaintiff's brother said
its old woo know perfectly well what he wee about, and that
witain) bed frequently told him that in return fur the
plsipg's kinder, he ought to give her all, end let km do
what she liked with It, for not only was she afflicted, futile/
been his nurse, but the others did not stand in weal
of it. Thu err from • vitae.* of course interested

mad dm material allegation in the plea that the words

tiff would be entitled to a verdict. The plaintiff relied on
matter antecedent and subsequent to the speaking of the
words as establishing that Campion wee impelled by malice.
This included the various representations by Campion to
Mrs. Kelly which were alleged to be prejudicial to the
plaintiff—such as the stealing of sheep and the loss of money.
The subsequent matters were the oceversadons with Mr.
Cronin, Mr. Singleton, Dr. Bailey, and Mr. Holly. With

end malice of the despes:=4i the other Mearnoey
would in that event be of that evidence of
malice. If they cams to the conclusion that Campion con-
spired with Kelly, or employed him to malign Strums, it
would be very difficult to conceive a case of MTV complete
and clear malice than would be thus eatehlithed. But
Mr. Campion positively contradicted the evidence of
Hugh Kelly, and it was for the jury to weA the
relative value of the statements. Ho (the Chief Baron)
could not help thinking that Kelly was, to a certain extent, a
self-bhted witn because upon his own showing he
entered into a conspiracy to blacken the character of••
young man who, althoogh he might have thwarted, had
never hijured lttm, and he had don* this not to advance
any ale* of his owe, or to secure revenge, but for the pur-
pose cihrweiding the diabolical designs of Campion and of
, removing Stamens from the patronage and affection of his
' wealthy anal, and thereby blasting his prospects in life. At
themes time • man might be tempted to engage in such a
plot without being prepared to commit the crime of perjury.
It was impossible to say that perjury had not beta committed
by tither of the parties, for Campion could not have forgotten
the tremeaotion it occurred, while It woe equally Impossible
that Kellyeould have made any mistake on the subject. Either
the words were need or they were fabricated. They should ask
themselves what inducements at that time Kelly had to lend
himself to such a design, or what reword or temptation Com-
pton had it in his power to offer him. Speaking in reference to
the observations made by Mr. Campion to Mrs. Kelly relative
to the plaintiff, his lordship told the jury they were to con-
sider whether these observations were made book fide, and
from an honest conviction of their truth and justice, to a
woman wham confidential adviser he was, end who was his
benefactress, or whether they were spoken because of a
settled dislike to the plaintiff to Injure the plaintiff. He
left it to the jury to say whether the observations made
by Canapes to Mr. Crows, Dr. Bailey, and Mr. Simpleton
were made from malice, or whether they were robin-
mind or drawn out in oonverestke, sad then oniscien -
Homely used. The plaintiff bed lost • large estate, which
the defendant bad imbed, end that circumstance wee cal-
eased to exalts sympathy fee the young man ; but they
most allow that considenalon to weigh with theta as
litle as possible. ea the object of the trial was not to temple-
sate the plaintiff for the pecuniary Ices be bed sustained, but
was narrowed to the limit of injury done to his character by
the accusation made against bim. The learned judge spoke
tithe wille that were made by the late Mrs. Kelly, end said
he did not think the mule was to be viewed as one ia which
the plaintiff was disiaberited in favour of Campion, rather
than as one in which she had chosen different
heirs, olti-
nmtely leaving • provision for life to the defendant, for whom
she entertained a strong respect. The object of the adios

tiff hose imputation as for any other purpose, and there could
be ne doubt that at the outset there was strong grounds for
the be that the murder was an as-mien one. The crime
bed, unfortunately, been too often committed in this oonntry,

Mr. Whitrida took somber of exceptions to the charge
on various grounds.
Shortly before 9 o'clock, after an absence of nearly three
hours, the jury came into court.

His lordship told the ury be had given directions which

The jury thanked his lordship.

Noon Dwell sad George Bristow were finally =mind
on the &am of oonspirieg to defraud.
It will be remembered that the prisoners hired a wharf in
Narrow-street, Limehonee, and ordered and reoeived there a
great variety of goods under the pretence that they were to
be shipped for Australia ; instead of which the good' ware, in
meaty cues, immediately sold at less than the nominal east
pries by the prisoners.
Committed for trial.

An elderly man named William Cooper, who appealed very
ill, WII placed in the dock before Mr. Paynter, charged with
embesAlmg various sumo of money belonging to the trustees
and membre of the Court Duke of Cambridge of the Ancient
Order of Foresters, held at the George Inn, Broadway, Hem-
ruerindat. _ _

Mr. Martin appeared for the prosecution, and stated that
the prisoner had bored as secretary to the court in question
for several years, said it had round, been discovered that he
had embesided a great many small same belonging to the
trustees to the extent of between 301. and 401. The sums
which he wee charged with mho:cling were paid In the_ year
1868, the accounts of 1857 not having yet been audited.
Re understood that the prisoner would plead guilty, and as
the trustees and zrembers did not wish to press the use too
severely against him in consequence of his health, he hoped
his worship would deal with him summarily, under the 24th
section of the Friendly Societies Act,by which be wee liable to
be imprisoned for three months instead of being sent for trial
for the felony.
Mr. Paynux said he would not offer any objection, although
he thought such a case ought to be sent for trial, as the crime
was one which demanded severe punishment, on soraunt of
robbing poor people who belonged to the society.
A man named Took, belonging to the Court Bishop
Latimer, at Shepherd's Bush, here stepped forward, and said
the prisoner had embezzled 771. belonging to their court, to
which he had been the secretary. The members of his court
would not be satisfied with the CYO being summarily dis-
posed of.
Mr. Paynter said, in that case he should decline dealing
with the matter summarily.
Mr. Martin then produced entrant evidence to warrant
his worship in remanding the prisoner, to enable the are to
be completed.
Mr. Payntar said be would accept bra, in two sureties of
40/. etch.

The primmer was than remanded until this day week.

large portion of the country, and the occurrence of a gale at
Colombo, accompanied by serious lose of end Me.
During the 18th, 19th, and 20th inst. it rained almost inces-
santly. On the 20th it commenced to blow very hard, freshening
to a severe gale. Some native shipping went on shore at that
day and on the morning of Saturday, the 21st, the 19Ibelle,
of 721 tons, Piney, for London, with 900 tone of valuable
cargo on board, parted from her anchors, and, hampered by
a great length of chain which could not be severed, wee

in one hour went to pieces. Every effort was made to save
those on board, the governor directi ;Del:f

anceeedul in the case of all save four of the Europeans on
board. The names of those who perished are :—William
Pinkhant, second mate; William Clarke, third mate;
William James, A.B. ; and Robert Brown, boy. The
captain was on shore, hastening off the small portion of
cargo still to be shipped, and during the prevalence of the
gale an offer of more than 1001. failed to induce the native
boatmen to put out. The quantity of coffee In the Sibella,
and which was utterly lost, was 9,010 plantation, 876 native,
worth on the spot 26,6001. There were also nearly 40,100
gallons of cocoanut oil, worth more than 6,0001. 'The taro
portion of the oil casks were saved undamaged, through the
merlon/ efforts of the agents for the ship. The total value
of the cargo was 33,0001. ; of the ship about 12,0001. So
