MAR YLEB ONE.

James Cardwell and Mary Inwards, servants of Mr.
Henry Porter, a butcher in Great Quebec-street, were
brought up for re-examination on a charge of stealing a
cash-box, containing 1,2001. The particulars of the
former examinations are fully before the public.
Mr. Chubb, the manufacturer of the patent detector-
lock, stated that the male prisoner came to his house in
St. Paul's Church-yard, and asked that a key might be
fitted to a cash-box which he produced. This could
not be done, and he then asked witness to break it
open, but, thinking the request very suspicious, he in-
stantly refused to do so.
Mr. John Britton, of the Liverpool-road, was in Mr.
Chubb's shop at the time, and fully identified the male
prisoner as the person making the application to break
open the cash-box.
No traces of the money having been discovered, the
case was further adjourned to Thursday.

SUPPOSED SUICIDE OF A FEMALE IN KEN-
SINGTON GARDENS.—On Friday morning, about eight
o'clock, as police constable A 120, was on duty in
Kensington-gardens, he was informed by a boy that part
of a woman's dress was to be seen on the surface of the
water of the Serpentine, within the gardens, and about
100 yards westward from the bridge which divides
the gardens from Hyde Park. The policeman imme-
diately proceeded to the spot, where be found what had
been described to him about five or six feet from the
south shore, and on wading in be succeeded indirtahwtilnegr
out the body of a very fine-looking female, about 23 or
24 years of age. The attempt to restore animation was
unavailing.
She was of a fair complexion,
with
hair short as if recently cropped, a front, of curls being
afterwards found in the water. No document I;eldocumentll

NORMAN V. WINTER.

Mr. Justice BOSANQUET gave judgment in this case, in
which a rule had been applied for to set aside three writs of
summons, and three writs of distringas, for irregularity. The
points being purely technical, presented no interest, except
one,_on which it was held that a summons, specifying errone-
ously the place of defendant's residence, was nevertheless
good, because the place of residence named in the writ was
the same as that written on the promissory note, on which the
action was brought, and the last place of residence of which
the plaintiff was proved to have any knowledge.

BAIL COURT.-(TRIS DAY.)

THE QUEEN V. TEE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY
COMPANY.

Mr. V. Lan applied for a mandamus against the Directors
of the London and Birmingham Railway Company, under the
following circumstances :—Messrs. Robins and Co. were very
large carriers between London and Liverpool and Manches-
ter, and rivals to Messrs. Pickford and Co. The goods of
Messrs. Pickford and Co. were taken by the Company, but
they refused to take goods tendered for Messrs. Robins and
Co. After arguing the case at considerable length, and citing
some cases,

Mr. Justice PATTESON said he wished the application had
been made a little earlier, in order that there might have been
more time to consider it ; but lie should be doing an injury to
Mr. Lee's clients by granting a mandamus, because it seemed
to him that it would be impossible to sustain it, and it would
be delaying their trying the question of right. The mandamus,
if it went at all, must be to compel the Company to do some-
thing which they were required to do by the provisions of the
Act; but there was no clause to compel the Company to take
the goods of other persons in the Company's carriages. It
seemed to him that it was not intended by this Act to compel
the Company to take either all passengers or goods which
might offer : whether there ought to have been such a provi-
sion it was not for him to say. Another argument urged was,
that the Company held themselves out to the world as com-
mon carriers, and therefore came within the general law. If
so, an action might be brought against them for having vio-
lated the law, and it would therefore be doing more harm than
good to grant the rule.—Rule refused.
London, England, 1839-01-31

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

This being the last day of Term the Court went through
:he bar, commencing with the junior Counsel.

LORD HOWDEN V. SIMPSON AND OTHERS

Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case at some length.
It had been argued during the last Term, and the declaration
set out an agreement on behalf of the York and North Mid-
land Railway Company, to pay the plaintiff the sum of
5,0001. for having withdrawn his opposition, and given his as-
sent to the Railway passing near his mansion. The defen-
dants had subsequently refused to fulfil the agreement, on the
ground that, having adopted a deviated line, the plaintiff had
no claim to compensation. It was urged among the arguments
that the interests of other parties were injuriously affected by
the agreement, that Lord Howden—being a Peer of the
realm—could not enter into such an agreement—
and that the agreement, having been concealed from
the Legislature, was a fraud upon it. There might be some
weight in the objection that the interests of others were in-
volved in the agreement, although the Court was of opinion
that Lord Howden, being a Member °tithe Legislature, might
as well enter into such an agreement as any other person.
These points, however, it was not necessary to enter into
fully, as they thought the objection that the agreement had
been concealed from Parliament must prevail. On the
whole, therefore, they were of opinion that the second plea
was good, and therefore the judgment of the Court must be
for the defendants.

GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE

TJNITED KINGCDOIOIPMNL\.,IFE ASSURANCE
s, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and 2, Charlotte-row, Mansion-

house, London.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the
most perfect seeurity, from an ample capital, and only requires,
when an Insurance is for the whole period of life, ono half of the
very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the
date of the Pehey, the other half may remain, subject to the pay-
ment of interest at 5 per cent, annually, to be deducted at, death, or
may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes
easy for a person of ♦er♦ moderate income to secure, by this ar-
rangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time
after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he
may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums
for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Com-
panies. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
391. Ins. 34i. for the first five years, secure to his widow and chil-
dren at kis death payment of no less than 3,0001., subject only to
the deduction of 1441. Is. 3d , being the amount of premium un-
paid. This Company holds out, in various other respects, great
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is
clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a for-
tune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a
sum which may yield a comfortable provision for kis family.

Mr. WOOLLATT (the defeated candidate) then briefly

It was the wish of one party to apply to Government
