WEIBILIA O. THE BUIROP 01 WINCRESIER.

This ow has at last been brought to a conclution, after
having occupied the court nearly lour days.
It has already been rated that the action was brought to
try the right to certain waste lands, and whether they be-
longed to the plaintiff, claiming as lord of the senor of
Chart, or to the defendant, who is lord it the manor of
Farnham. A great many writer's were examined on both
sides, bat it appeared to be pretty clearly made out on the
part of the right d defendant that no such manor a.
Chart had ever existed, and that it wu only one of the
tithiags of the manor of Farnham.
The jury stepped his lordship while he was in the course
of summing up the cue, and said they had made up their
dads, and they at once returned a verdict for the defendant.

Jobe &senor surrendered to take his trial for said,-
suraeour.

Mr. Parry proueuted, aad Mr. Behatthe appeared for
the delendet.

—The misdemeanour imputed to the defendant was that he,
being agent for one John Southgate Weller, and having in
such capacity ;had certain goods intrusted to him for sat •
custody, afterwards, contrary to good faith, appropriated
these goods to his own use. It appeared that the prosecutor
earried on the business o!an eating-house keeper in C hutch-
lane, Whiteehapel; and in February last, being in some
difficulties with his landlord, a distress was put into tie
house for the sum of 341.195. 6d, An agreement was sub,
sequently made that the dirtrese should be withdrawn upon
the prosecutor paying 41. in cash and giving a bill for the
balance of 141. 19s. 6d. ; and it appeared that the defendant,
at the request of the prosecutor, consented to accept the bill,
the latter agreeing, as a means of holding him harmless, and
being about to give up his business, that his furniture should
be placed in the defendant's ears until the bill should be paid.
It appeared that, after the arrangement bad been emended,
and the bill had been given, the prosecutor entertained
some suspicion of the defendant's fidelities's, and be offered
at once to pay the bill, and declined to let the defendant have
possession of his furniture ; and when the furniture, which
wes stated to by worth 1501, had been placed In a inn, the
prosecutor directed that it should be taken to the Eastern
Couaties Railway station, to be conveyed to the country. but
it appeared that the defendant, with three other men, into-
eepted the me; and, acoord:og to the evidence of the prose-
clam, forcibly took away the furniture, and it was after.
wards conveyed to an auctioneer's room, where a por-
tion of it was sold, in defines of the protest of
the prosecutor. The prosecutor assorted positively
that he had since paid the bill, and that he
had never, in point of fact, received a single farthing from
the defendant ; and he at the lame time stated that by the
proceedings of which he complained he was at present dia•
possessed of the whole of his furniture.
Mr. Ballantine, after the ease had proceeded to some
length, suggested that possibly it might be a satisfactory tar-
initiation of the matter if some arrangement should be made
for the restitution of the property. Ile of course did not say
that the defendant was not in a position virtually to alter the
aspect of the case as It at present appeared ; bat it seemed to
him that the justice of the case would be answered by the as.
rangement that he suggested.
Some discussion then took place between the learned
counsel and the court, and upon a suggestion that the de-
fendant should consent to a verdct of guilty, and enter into
recognisance; to appear and receive judgment, it being un-
derstood that in the event of the property being restored, no
sentence woild be passed, the recorder said he did not think
he could sanction a verdict of guilty upon the present indict-
ment utile, there was some distinct evidence of the defen-
dant having d 'posed of the property in question.
The rroseentor was accordingly recalled, and is answer to
questions put by the Recorder, he said that the defendant was
present when some of the property that had been sold at
the auction was removed. He at the same time, however,
stated that the defendant in the first instance took the furni-
ture away by force and against his will.
The Recorder said it appeared to him that this last piece of
evidence put an end to the charge. The defendant was
amused by the present indictment with having Improperly
dipeesd of property which had been entrusted to him by the
preesseeer to take care of under certain conditions, when it
appeased that he had not entrusted it, but, on the contrary,
the property was taken from hiss against his will.
r. Ballantine said that this was his view of the ease.
If say offence at all had been committed it was larceny.
The jury then, under his lordship's direction, returned a
verdict of Not Guilty.
The Recorder said, that it appeared to him clearly upon
the facts as they already appeared, that a larceny had bun
committed ; and he should order the prisoner to be detained
so that an indictment should be preferred against him for
that offence.

CII•1OI OF ROBBIIT IN ♦ BAYMACI.

JCIII4 Griffin, 19, was indicted for riesling a gold watch,
value 301. and a gold chain, velem; gl., he property of Loner
Garland, In the dwelling-house of our lady the Queen.
It appeared from the statement of the ease by the counsel
for the proaeattion, that the prosecutor is a lieutenant in the
11th Hussars, and in September last he was stationed with •
detachment of his regiment at Hampton Court. Shortly
Lama that period he had exchanged a watch, for which he
had given 301., with a Jew named Joell for the watch in
question which was a small o.eevese article, in reality o'
very trifling value, and it seemed that he bed left it in his
room with a gold chain and key attached to it some time in
the month of September, and missed it soon afterwards.
Nothing was heard of the stolen property until November
following, when it appeared that • pawnbroker at Terieken-
ham, named Saunders, purchased the whole of the articles
of the prisoner foe 35'. sad wording to the evidence
of this person he did not believe that the chain
was gold, and threw it aside as worth:en, and afterwards
disposed of it for flee shillings. It appeared an the course of
the camp that the prisoner bad been employed in a subordi-
nate capacity to wait upon the officers, and therefore had as
opportunity of taking the property ; but it was at the same
dine admitted that • number of other persona had the same
facility of doing so, and it likewise appeared that she had
openly Mew sad of the watch and chain, and gave her
true name and addrees.

Mr. Tarnle, in addrealing the jury for the prWoner, out
planted upon all the favourable points In the CYO. and sub
witted that, under the circumstances, she was entitled to an
acquittal.
The Recorder having sunward up, the jury shawl Wl"'
distally maned a verdict of Not Malty.
