LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY).

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
MIDDLETON V. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff against the
Great Western Railway for compensation for injuries sus-
tained.

The plaintiff sometime ago was a passenger by the Metro-
politan Railway from Paddington to Farringdon station,
find before the train arrived at the latter station a collision
occurred by which the plaintiff received some injuries in
the face which compelled him for two sr three months to
place himself under medical care, He suffered from violent
pains in the head, impaired sight, and his income, which
realised about 100 per annum, was entirely stopped by the
fact of his having to seek rest and quietness at the seaside.
The defendants paid £250 into court, but the plaintiff con-
sidered such a sum totally inadequate to compensate him
for the loss he had sustained. _ _

The defendants contended that the sum paid was a very
ample compensation for the inconvenience the plaintiff had
suffered. tie had, they contended, exaggerated the injuries
and its results, and the £250 which plaintiff had already
received was a full and liberal compensation.

The jury returned a verdict for the defendant.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

DRUNKENNESS IN A Wonimovsn.--Ann Connelly, an
inmate of St. James's Workhouse, and who had an infant
in her arms, was charged before Mr. Knox with assaulting
Wm. Butler, aged nine months, and Eliz ibeth Butler, the
mother, who is also an inmate of the workhouse.
Elizabeth Butler said that, yesterday evening she wail
undressing the baby, when the prisoner, who had been
drinking, struck the baby in the mouth with her knuckles,
and on her (complainant) going to inform the master, pri-
soner struck her in the mouth, loosening one of her teeth.

Prisoner said sLe was very sorry, and had had a drop of
drink.

Mr. Knox committed the prisoner for a month.

THAMES.

IMPORTANT TO MASTERS AND APPRENTICES.—SamueI
Camper, a respectab.e young, appeared before Mr. Par-
tridge to answer a charge of disob2ying the orders of his
master.

Mr. Josiah Goodman, builder, No. 1, Lichfield-road,
Grove-road, Mile-end, said the prisoner was his apprentice.
He had no premium with him. Last Tuesday he gave
orders to the prisoner to get his tools ready and lay on the
gas at four houses opposite the workshop. The prisoner
said he had had enough of that and refused to do it. On
the same day the prisoner was ordered to bring out his tools
and erect a temporary shed. The prisoner said " I shall
stay here and finish my doors."
In cross-examination by Mr. Joseph Smi.h, the solicitor,
the witness said that the prisoner was engaged in making
doors, but he ought to have obeyed the orders given him.
Mr. Partridge thought a master was the best judge of
the work required to be done, and not the apprentice.

Mr. Goodman said he gave the defendant. piecework to
encourage him, and paid him 14s. per week, to be increased
next year to 15s.
Mr. Joseph Smith said the defendant was 21 years of
age on the 24th of last October, and was not bound to serve
his master any longer as an apprentice.
James Camper, of Bow-common, said he was the defen-
dant's father, and that his son was born on the 24th of
October, 1842. He produced his family Bible. The births
of all his children were registered in that book. He wrote
the words, " Samuel Campar, born October 24, 1842," on
the day of his son's birth.
Mr. Partridge—There is an end of the case. The com-
plainant has no further control over the apprentice, who is
of age and free. It the father was a party to the agreemen
the complainant could bring an action against him for
breach of covenant.
Mr. Camper said, that when his son was apprenticed he
told Mr. Goodman the lad would bo of age on October 24,
1863.
Mr. Goodman stoutly denied this—he was always led to
believe the apprentice would be of age on Oct. 24, 1861.
Mr. Partridge—You can bring your action. The appren••
tics is discharged.
