ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCUIT.--ItuDerows, Jutv 31.
CIVIL SIDE. —(Bdore the Lard Chief Justice and a
Special Jury.)

RIMUUDGE AND ANOTHER r. WARD.

This wns a light of way cisme. It commenced on Monday
afternoon, and was adjourned until this morning, and occu-
pied the whole of the day, and was not concluded until
wren o'clock.

Q.C., Mr. Lush, Q.C., and the Hon. G.
Daman, were Ica the plaintiff ; Mr. Montagu Chambers,
Q. 0., Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Hannan, were for the
defoodent.
Th.plaintiff in this action is one of the partners in the
firm of Mena and Co., the brewers, and tlip defendant is
an attorney. II appeared that both parties had purchased
certain propmiy in the neighbourhood of Sheerness ; and
the question in dispute was whether there was a right of
way across& certain field called the Hundred-acre Field,
the contention on the part of the plaintiff being that there
bad been a public way across the field in question from time
immemorial.
The jury, in the result, found that this had been esta-
blish 4 and gave a verdict for the plaintiff.

CROWN Sun.
(Before Mr. Edwin James, Q.C.)

Jaws Arnie, 24, soldier, was indicted for robbery with
violence upon Helene Patterson.
Mr. Barrow prosecuted.
The prosecutrix, it appeared, was a respectable young
woman, and on the evening mentioned in the indictment
she was walking across Chatham lines with her father,
who was some distance in front, when the miaoner, who is
• private in the 75th Regiment, came up to her, and with
an oath said that money he wanted and money he would
have, and he then used some violence towards the prosecu-
trix, and robbed her of • small sum of money. She gave
an 4sirm, and her father came up, upon which the pri.
loner ran off, but be was taken into custody shortly after-
wards.

The prisoner was convicted, and ordered to be kept to
hard labour for two years.
When the sentence was pronounced the prisoner became
very violent, and exclaimed, " your two year] ; I want
another sentence than that;" and it was with grr .1 difficulty
that he was removed by the polere in attendance.
It has already been stated that a great number of soldiers
have been „convicted of offences at these assima ; and
although many of them appear to have borne a moat in-
famous character previous to their joining the army, there
to be very little doubt that the object a good many
appears
had in view when they committed the offence was
to get out of the service.
