COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—FEB. L.
Sittings at Nisi Prins at Westminster.—(Before Mr.
Justice Blackburn and Common Juries.)
JUDD r. GILIST.-DREACH OF Mullin.

This was an action for breech of promise of marriage.
Mr. Best appeared for the plainttff ; and Mr. Pearce con-
ducted the case fur the defence.

Mr. Best, in stating the ease to the jure. said the plain-
tiff, Susannah Judd, was the daughter of John Judd, fore-
man to Mr. Crook, a builder, and residing at Morning.
lime, Homeric°. She was now about 2.3 years old, and the
defendant, William Gilby, who wax about the same age, held
a situation se shopman to a jeweller. The parties had known
each other from childhood, and been to school together,
their parents living in the lame neighbourhood.
This intimacy ripened into friendship and affec.
tans, and, at last, love. In 155-1, the defendant
went into a situation at Liverpool, when he commenced
cot responding with the plaintiff, and between that time and
the breaking off the snatch in PO, he wrote no less
than 73 letters breathing eternal vows of friendship
and love. (Laughter.) The defendant returned from
Liverpool, and asked' the plaintiff's mother for permission
to pay his addresses to her laughter, which was granted.
He was then introduced to the yourg lady, and nu affec-
tionate greeting took place between them. He went back
to Liverpool, but being unable to endure the pangs of
separation he returned in 18141 to London, and took up his
residence at 318, Strand. Repeated meetings then took
place between them, the defendant taking the plaintiff to
Jullien's concerts and other places of amusement. In
1859 he obtained a situation in the shop of Mr.
Hureldine, a jeweller, in Coventry-street, Haymarket, and
from that time until the engagement was broken he wrote
33 letters to the plaintiff, most of them teeming with poetry
of an amorous strain. He presented Miss Judd with two
or three portraits of himself, one being in a locket. On one
occasion he brought her two " watch rings," and she having
selected one, he presented it to her, observing, " give it
to you so that nobody else shall run away with you, and I
hope the next I give
.you I shall take you away from your
mother altogether." (Laughter.) It appeared from a letter
dated June 7, 1855, that the green-eyed monster had got
possession, for he wrote :—" bear Miss Judd,-1 suppose I
must not call you 'my dear,' as you have quite forgot me.
I think it very strange that you have not written to me ;
but I suppose you have got a new sweetheart that you like
better than me. I suppose I am too far off now, you
think ; but remember what you said when we parted. I
know what I said, and still my :
" If you love me as I love you
Nothing but death shall part us two."—(Laughter.)
The letter concluded with some verses, in which the refrain
was—

" Still will I love thee—so forget me not."
The learned gentleman said the young lady did not forget
him ; as she continued to correspond with him in the most
affectionate terms. On the 7th 1 ebruary, 1836, he wrote to
the plaintiff to try and induce ber to come and take a situa-
tion in Liverpool, observing that he would then be happy.
When he returned to London his imagination seemed still
to be haunted by the person of a rival; for in a letter
written from Coventry-street, dated 12th April, 1839, and
commencing "My dear Susee," he urged
. her to keep
the young man at a distance for his sake."
The plaintiff happened afterwards to attend a wedding, and
in reference to that event the defendant wrote : I am
afraid the young couple learnt you something, for you were
laughing so much about them ; but never mind, it will be
my turn soon I hole. You had better tell me what they
mid—l should like to know, Slime love. I want to learn
something. (Laughter.) Don't you lam rather back.
ward. They say so up here." (Laughter.) In October
there seemed to have been a lovers' quarrel, but it ended in
the young lady being presented with two likenesses and a
ring, and receiving a letter containing these words :—" I
will never deceive you. Let come what will I will have no
other." On the 7th of November he wrote that he was
antioniffor the time when she would be his own for ever, and
that Susee and a small cot were all he required. (Laughter.)
The last affectionate letter was written in December, and
the few which followed it were extremely cold epistle:. On
the 19th March, 1844 the defendant showed his true colours.
The letter of that day, which began with no endearing term,
but simply " Susee "--llaughter)—was all inflows:—
"You can understand my meaning for not writing I should
think by this time. I hope you will not think any more of
me as your intended, for I have seen one I love better.
itatughter.) Thanking you for put favours— (laughter)—
I hope you will not bear me any malice—plea for-
ward my liken's' back." (Laughter.) Having received
no answer to this letter he thought he would assume a still
bolder tone, and see what that would do, and he wrote on
the 2Hth of the same month :—" Miss Judd—(laughter)—
will you please forward my likeness, with letters, presents,
kr., to my house ; 1 will return the same on Sunday to Min
Judd. With W. Gilby's best wishes. (Laughter.) The
meson I write so plain is, I believe it is the custom
to return all presents, &c." Miss Judd took no notice of this
missive either, and he resolved to try something stronger :
" Miss Judd,—You have taken no notice of my letter re-
specting my things. I should have thought you would
have returned them without asking. Had it been any
other lady but yourself they would have returned them
long since. I hope you will return them without further
notice. I must and will have the ring and likeness by re-
turn ; I am willing to return your !denote when I receive
mine. Hoping you will not lose any time in doing so,
W. Gllby." (Laughter.) The learned counsel said that, in
consequence of the match being thus broken off, the plain-
tiff's health had become seriously affected ; and, after com-
menting in severe terms upon the era's' and unmanly con-
duct of the defendant, called upon the jury to give sub-
stantial damages to his client, whose prospects of a settle.
ment in life, he contended, bad been blighted by the serious
wrong she ad suffered.
Evidence having been given in support of the plaintiff's
case, . .

Mr. Pearce addressed the jury on the part of the de-
fendant in mitigation of damages, but adduced no evidence.
The learned Judge having briefly summed up,
The jury found u verdict for the plaintiff—damages 40t.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.-Fn. 5.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)
RE FRANCIS AND ROOM.
This wee an examination meeting. The bankrupts were
leather facto's, of the New Leather Market. Bermondsey.
The debts and liabilities are about 87,000/. ; assets consi-
derable.
Mr. Linklater appeared for the assignees, Mr. Tucker
(Tucker and Gibbs) for the bankrupts.
It seemed the bankrupts were making arrangements for
superseding their bankruptcy, and an uljournment sine die
was taken by consent.
Several cases were disposed of by Mr. Commissioner
Evans in the priv►te part of the building.

THE POLICE COURTS.

MANSION-HOUSE.

Mr. Mere North, the principal to the firm of North and
Nickoll, Russian brokers, lately carrying on business in
Bishopegate-etreet, was Owed at the lair in custody of
Sergeant Brett., one of the detective officers of the City of
London, before Mr. Alderman Rose, who sat for the Lord
Mayor, who was compelled to be absent upon his official
duty in presiding over the Court of Aldermen, charged with
stealing 343 casks of tallow, value 8,708/. Is. fitl., the pro-
perty of Messrs. Hubbard and Co., Russian merchants.
A warrant was applied for last week for the apprehension
of the defendant, and upon the sworn information of the
necessary witnesses the Lord Mayor at oncedirected that one
should be issued. This ~rant was placed in the hands of
Sergeant Brett, a very useful and intelligent officer, who at
once took the necessary steps to execute it ; but it seemed
that Mr. North, through his legal telvisers, sent a communi •
cation to the proper authorities that it would nut be neces-
sary for the warrant to be put in force in the usual manner,
as he intended to surrender and meet the charge, and half-
past 12 o'clock yesterday was appointed tot him to do so.
Shortly after that time Mr. North voluntarily met the
officer and proceeded with him to Seething-lane police-
station, where the charge was formally taken, and the de-
fendant then aceomptuied the officer to this court.
The prisoner was stated in the charge-sheet to be thirty-
live years old, and he did not exhibit touch emotion during
the proceedings.
After hearing the evidence,
Mr. Alderman Rao said that he thought he might admit
the prisoner to buil, but taking into consiih.ration the largo
amount of property that was the subject of the charge, the
bail must be to a large amount. He was informed that the
prisoner had been declared a bankrupt, and therefore his
own recognissaces could not be taken, and he should there.
fore require him to find two sureties in the rani of 4,000/.
each for his appearance at the next examination, and he
must give twentrfour hours' notice, in order that the re-
sponsibility of the persons who might offer themselves as
bail should be fully inquired into.
The prisoner was then removed, and in the course of the
day he was takes in a cab to Newgate.

ROYAL MILITARY ACADEMY.—The gentlemen
cadets at this institution will resume their studies to-mor-
row after the Christmas vacation, which has been extended
beyond the usual period on account of the damp state of
the walls of the dormitories and class-rooms resulting from
the severe frost and succeeding thaw. In consequence of
the amalgamation of the East India Company's seminary at
Addiscombe with the Woolwich Academy, twenty-nine ad-
ditional students front the former institution will form a
special class, and for those cadets destined to become offi-
cers in the Indian service additional professors and masters
qualified to instruct in Hindustani and Oriental languages
will be engaged by the War Department. The entire es-
tablishment now contains 186 students.

THE VICTORIA CIIOBB. —WAR-01710E, FEB. 5.
The Queen has teen graciously pleased to signify her inten-
tion to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross on the
undermentioned officer of her Majesty's army, whoee claim
to the same has been submitted for her Majesty's approval,
on account of acts of bravery performed by him in India,
as recorded against his name, viz.: 61st Regiment—Surgeon
Herbert Taylor Resde—During the siege of Delhi, oath*
14th of September, 1867, while Surgeon Reads was attend-
ing to the wounded, at the end of one of the streets of the
city, a party of rebels advanced from the direction of the
bank, and having established themselves in the houses in
the street, commenced firing from the roofs. The wounded
were thus in very great danger, and would have fallen into
the hands of the enemy, had not Surgeon Resale drawn his
sword, and calling upon the few soldiers who were near to
follow, succeeded, under a very heavy fire, in dislodging the
rebels from their position. Surgeon Reede's party consisted
of about ten in all, of whom two were killed, and five or
six wounded. Surgeon Ramie also accompanied the regi-
ment at the assault of Delhi, and, on the morning of the
16th September, 1857, was one of the first up at the breach
in the magazine, which was stormed by the 61st Regiment
and Belooch Battalion, upon which occasion be, with a
sergeant of the Slat Regiment, spiked one of the enemy's
guns.
