LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, March 2.
LETTs v. LONDON CORN-EXCHANGE.

At the conclusion of the arguments in this case,
The LORD CHANCELLOR, after hearing Mr. Bathell
for some time in reply, said that without at present
giving any opinion as to the effect or duration of the
agreement for the composition, he wished to know whe-
ther the parties would consent to have a reference to the
Master somewhat in this form. The right to some tithe
being, it was presumed, not deniable, that there should
be a reference to inquire what was at present the yearly
value of the premises known as the Corn Exchange, re-
gard being had to the yearly value of such portions of
the building as do not appear to be liable to pay tithes;
that was, in other words, to inquire into the yearly rents
of the hole building, minus those portions of the fit-
tings-up which are not liable to tithes. His Lordship in
making this suggestion was not giving judgment. He
only threw it out for the consideration of counsel before
be made a decree, and he was disposed to give time un-
til Saturday next for that purpose.
The matter stands over accordingly.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
HOME CIRCUIT, Chelmsford, March 2.
The commission for the county of Essex was opened
on Monday at this place. There are 11 causes on the
civil side, three of which are special Jury cases. On
the Crown side 44 prisoners stand fur trial, and the great
in,,j,,rity of the cases aro of a very serious character, in-
cluding a charge of murder, which creates a good deal
of interest in the county. _

(Before Dar. Baron PARICE.)
William Green, 43 postman, pleaded guilty to two
indictments, charging him with stealing post letters,
containing money, the property of the Postmaster-
General.

It appoared that the prisoner was intrusted to deliver
letters in one of the country districts in the neighbour-
hood of Ovington, and that he took advantage of the
opportunity thus afforded him to purloin two of the let-
ters that were intrusted to his care. In one instance it
appeared that a poor servant-girl had saved up 21. for
the purpose of sending to her mother, to enable her to
pay her rent, and she enclosed four half-sovereigns in a
card, which she enclosed in a letter, and this letter and
its contents were stolen by the prisoner.
Mr. Baron PARKE, in passing sentence, remarked
upon the mischief and inconvenience that was occasioned
by acts of plunder of this description; and at the same
time observed that the poorer classes were generally the
sufferers. It was therefore absolutely necessary that an
example should be made in every case, and he therefore
felt it his duty to order the prisoner to be transported
for 14 years.

MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Lincoln, March 2.

Eliza Spajjord, Mary Greenwood, and Eliza Lyon

admitted that the umbilical cord might have got round
the neck of the child, and that the wound mteht have I
been inflicted in the attempt to sever the cord. The I
prisoner had from the first stated that the child was 1
born dead.

The Learned COUNSEL addressed the jury on behalf of
the prisoner, admitting that she Was guilty of the offence
of concealment, but contending that th,:re was no evi-
dence that the child was ever completely born alive-
The jury ultimately convicted the prisoner of con-
cealment, and she was sentenced to four months' im-
prisonment.
