lie busted the jury would not allow themselves to be
u.ade the tools to complete so abominable a proceeding.
In conse9uence of theprosecation Mr. Fisher had resigned
his position, but he (Mr. Foster) did hope that Golonet
(Abe would reinstate him when be became aware of Use
real facts of the cure.
In summing up the case his Lordship said that it was
pert's etly clear that the prorecutimi had originated from
very unworthy motives. False entries of matters con-
nected with resonation were very serious, and it was the
duty of the properly authorised persons to undertake
]corerutionsin connection with them, and not that of
private parties. Although he could not doubt that the
prosecution bad been instituted from malicious motives,
they had to try the question without regard to the
manner in which it came before them.
The jury almost immediately found a verdict of Not
Guilty, at the announcement of which there was some
a) plauee.
His Lordship, after directing that the defendant should
he discharged, ,aid--1 think, as I have said to the jury,
thiv is a most unworthy prosecution, and one the costs of
hick I do not feel disposed to allow. Those who pro-
moted it ought to tsar the cost themselves ; those wit-
nessee who are bound over and innocent witnesses I will
allow for, but not for those who are in any way concerned
in the prosecutien. 'those parties must pay their own
cats, as it is entirely got up for private purposes, and
not upon public grounds at all • and the attorney for the
prosecution must take care to get the costs from those
who employed him.

NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—lpswion, AUGUST 11.
Mr. Justice Keating got through the cause list yester-
day, the en]; cafe of any interest being an action by
commercial traveller against the Great Northern Railway
Company, to recover compensation for injuries sustained
in an accident which occurred at Bandy, in Bedfordshire,
when an express train ran into some goods trucks which
were across the line. The only question was all to the
amount of damages, the company having offered 1,0001.,
and the plaintiff claiming 1,5001. A number of witnesses
having been called for the plaintiff, and the counsel for
the defendant having addressed the jury in mitigation of
damages, the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—
damages 750!.
Mr. O'Malley, Q.C., and Mr. Merewetber appeared for
the plaintiff; Mr. Bulwer, Q.C., and Mr, etcalfe for
the defendant.

A carman, named Jaws Seymour, was charged with
cruelly tortiaringt, hone by working it in an tanflt state,
and was remanded till yesterday, when Mr. Cherry, the
government veterinary surgeon, who had seen the home,
described the wounds and sores over its holy. A worse
care he had never seen. The horse was invtly glandercd,
and was dangerous to be on the highway, either for
human being or beast.
Mr. Chore, of the Royal Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to animals, who attended to watch the ease, fully
corrotoratcd Mr. Cherry.
Some further evidence was given, clearly showing that
the master, John Peters, of Colliers End, near Ware,
Hertfordrhire, hay and straw dealer, sent his carman
(reymour) out with the horse, knowing it was glandencl.
Seymour kew it was too bad to be at large.
After some discussion, and in which some temper was
shown by Peters, he agreed to have the horse (I.:At-nye&
Mr. Knox raid he would take into account the de-dr-Ac-
tion of the horse, and instead of inflicting the full penalty
of three months' hard labour, he would reduce it to two
months' as against Peters. The carman, Seymour, would
be sentenced to one month's bard labour for working the
here in such a state.
