LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

- -

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
(Before the Lord Chief Baron Pollock and a Special Jury.)
WARD V. THE GAS LIGHT AND COAL COMPANY.-THE FIRE AT

SAVILLE ROUSE.

This was an action brought by Mr. Ward, the occupier
of the lower portion of the building lately known as Sa-
ville House, which was destroyed by fire, to recover for
special damage, on the ground of the carelessness and
negligence of the defendants.
Mr. Bovill, Q.C., who appeared for Mr. Ward, said
his client wus the well-known easy chair manufacturer,
and formally carried on this business in a building in
Leicester-square, which was destroyed by fire on the
28th of February, and the whole of the contents destroyed.
The action was brought to recover the amount of
damage he had sustained. The plaintiff was partly insured
in the Commercial Union, and the money sought to '..)e re-
covered was the amount uncovered by the insurance.
Also the insurance company were parties to the suit to the
extent of the amount they had paid the plaintiff. The
jury would not be troubled with assessing the amount of
damage in the case, because it had been agreed by -all
parties that, if the defendants were found to be liable, then
the' amount to be paid by the company was to be settled by
arbitration. It was alleged that the escape of gas was caused
by the servants of the gas company, the question of liability
was the only one they would have to try. The defendants
supplied the gas consumed on the whole of the building,
although the music-hall saloon and other rooms in Saville
House wore occupied by a gentleman named Bloom. There
was a metre in the passage of Saville House, which sup-
plied a portion of Saville House in the occupation of Bloom,
and it was the matters that occurred at that particular spot
that caused the destruction of the building, The servants
of the defendant came on the early part of the day, of. the
28th day of February, to remedy some defect in the supply
of the gas. After examination the man decided to put up
a new metre, and the old one was at once removed.
Having proceeded to the length of removing the metre
the men, instead of proceeding with their work, went on
indulging themselves in the kitchen, eating pancakes
in Ithe kitchen—(laughter)—it being Shrove Tuesday.
The pipes were disconnected, the metre was taken down,
and the men said they would not be able to bring a new
one for a week or a fortnight. They ought, therefore, at
once to have formed a connection between the inlet and
outlet pipe, but such had not been done ; and whether they
intended to do so he did not know. But he thought it
would be beyond dispute that they took down the metre,
and at the time of the explosion such connection had been
made. The men had turned the gas off at the inlet pipe
previous to commencing their operations, and having done
so they proceeded to discuss their pancakes. The gasl
was, of course, wanted to light up the house, and when
the tap of the inlet pipes was turned the gas would not
light. One of the servants went to ascertain the cause that
prevented the gas lighting, and when near the place where the
metre was situated with a light an explosion took place,
and the whole of the building and contents were entirely
destroyed. The cause of the explosion he attributed to the
servants of the gas company leaving the pipes in an inse-
cure state. It was said, on the other side, that the pipes
were not left in a dangerous condition; that after the metre
was removed a bung was placed in the inlet pipe ; but he
thought it more than likely that the gasmen having taken
down the metre were only too anxious for their pancakes
—(laughter)—that having shut the gas off from the main,
by turning the tap attached to the inlet pipe, and leaving
the key in the usual position, they left the work without
properly securing it by placing a screw cap over the aper-
ture. That was the ordinary way of securing an open
pipe, and not to trust to pushing a bung into the pipe,
supposing such a thing to have been done. He should
call witnesses to prove ►by their evidence the facts he had
stated to the jury, and having done that he felt that they
would have no difficultfin arriving at a verdict.
William Larven said he was in the employ of Mr. Bloom
in February last. He occupied part of the premises known
as Saville House, Leicester-square. He occupied the music
hall and saloon ; he had let the billiard room. He knew there
was a complaint about the gas, and the .company's inspec-
tor and his men attended to remedy the defect. The in-
spector asked for a hammer to open the metre box ; it was
given him, and he believed the metre was removed.
After taking the metro down he saw the men eating
pancakes in the kitchen, they remained about half au
hour and then went away. They never told him he
could not use the gas to light the hall, saloon, and pas-
sage. He went out for about half an hour, and when he
returned the house was on fire. He did not know that
' there had been any escape of gas the day previous.
From the great number of leading counsel engaged,
and the number of witnesses to be examined in the case,
it is not expected to conclude to-day.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A MASQUERADE IN THE HAYMARKZT.—Margaret An-
derson, a young woman, wearing the costume of debardeur,
was charged before Mr. Knox with disorderly conduct in
the Haymarket.
Police-constable 51 C said that about a quarter past six
o'clock that morning he saw the defendant running up and
down the Haymarket screaming at the top of her voice•
lie advised her to go away, as she was likely to cause a
crowd to assemble, in consequence of the dress she was
wearinm when she exclainica
to leave, but after a time did so. About an hour after-
wards he found her at the door of Walker's tavern, near
the Haymarket, with a crowd of about 50 persons, most of
them men going to their work, around her, and as she re-
fused to go away he took her to the station.

Mr. Snot inquired whether anything had been going
on the previous night, and the constable said there had
been a bal masque at the Alhambra Palace, and the defen-
dent had been there.
The defendant, who hung down her head, said she had
only been a short time in London. She came from
Liverpool.

Mr. Knox said he wished she would return there. She
did not appear to have done any harm, and would there-
fore discharge her.

The defendant left in a cab brought to the rear of the
court so as to prevent a crowd collecting.
UNPROVOKED ASSAULT.-- Minnie Dunn, a young woman,
was charged with assaulting Elizabeth Susan Cossins, re-
siding at No. 9, Spring-gardens.
The complainant was passing along Regent-street, when
the defendant went up to her, and asked her if her name
was Minnie, and, on her saying it was not, gave her a blow
on the mouth, no provocation whatever being given by the
complainant.
Alfred Warwick Shill, a labouring man, passing at the
time, proved seeing the defendant assault the complainant
and seeing her mouth bleeding.
The defendant said the complaint pushed against her,
but this was denied by the complainant and her witness.
Mr. Knox remarked that he did not see why inoffensive
persons should be outraged in the streets, and fined the
defendant 205., or 14 days.

take him into custody. The prisoner struck the con-
stable and threw him, and when ' he was down kicked
at his temple. The rim of the policeman's helmet saved
his head. A tremendous struggle took place, and Free-
man was nearly overpowered, and called for help. A
young man named Liggins, of 45, Wellington-
place, went to the aid of the constable, and
he was assaulted and kicked by the prisoner;
other help was at hand, the fellow was secured, and his
ravings were loud and incessant for some time.
Inspector Griffin said the prisoner was sentenced to one
month's imprisonment for assaulting a constable in the
early part of the year.

Mr.Paget said the prisoner had committed a most violent
and dastardly assault on the constable, 'who was doing his
duty in a forbearing and proper manner, and he had also
beaten and kicked a respectable young man. If ho did not
protect constables in the execution of their duty no decent
man would enter the force. It was equally his duty to
protect orderly and respectable people who assisted the
police. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for
one month and kept to hard labour for the assault on Free-
man, the constable, and another month with hard labour
For the assault on Pigging.
Mrs. Castle, the prisoner's sister, implored of the magis-
trate to inflict a fine only, and said her brother was not
right in his mind.
A beershop-keeper, who bailed the prisoner, believed
him to be of unsound mind.

Roche, the gaoler of the court, was of a similar opinion.
Many years ago an ox-sergeant of police, named Murray,
obtained 3s. 6d. per week of him under pretence of giving
him a good education. The case was investigated in that
court, and by some technicality, the alleged offender
escaped.
Inspector Griffin and others said the prisoner was a per-
fectly sane man when he was sober.
Mr. Pagot, after investigating the matter at considerable
length, came to the conclusion that the prisoner was' an-
swerable for his actions, and refused to alter his sentence
or to inflict a penalty.

THE FENIAN TRIALS,

DUBLIN, Wednesday:

At the sitting of the court this morning Judge
Fitzgerald delivered his charge to the jury in the
case of the prisoner O'Leary, in whose behalf Mr.
Dowse had addressed the court on the preceding
day. In the course of the charge the learned Judge
said :—" It has occurred to me, and possibly it has
occurred to you, in the course of this investigation,
to ask yourselves the question, What did these par-
ties want who were enaged in this Fenian movement?
What did they want, if' the object at the bottom
was not the redistribution of property in this coun- 1
try ? I hope you will agree with me in this, -that
we can boast of possessing an amount of freedom,
and a constitution unrivalled in Europe, or in the
wide world." The overt acts charged against the
prisoner were 30 in number, consisting mainly
of articles in the Irish People, and acts done in con-
nection with the confederacy, and proof of any one
of them, as performed in advancement of the crimi-
nal conspiracy, would be enough. The judge did not
think the Fenian society was merely playing with
treason—a sham or pretence ; there was not a
shadow of ground for alleging that the prisoner was
base enough to be a party to anything of the kind.
"It may have been that in this country, or in
America, there were engaged in the movement
schemers and swindlers, whose principal object was
the raising of funds with the intent to appropriate
them to their own purposes. But that at least the
prisoner would be acquitted of." The law of con-
spiracy was to be jealously regarded, but it was on
the other hand essential for the protection of society
that such a law should exist, as otherwise a person
might set on foot an organisation of an illegal kind,
keeping in the background and leaving his agents
and dupes to bear the responsibility. Judge Fitz-
gerald also referred to the remittances from America
for Fenian purposes. The Solicitor-General had
estimated them at £7,800 ; in one year certainly
£5,000 had been sent to O'Leary's orders. The
funds came through the hands of John O'Mahoney,
and it could not now be doubted that the money
was remitted for the treasonable
_purpose of further-
ing the conspiracy to overthrow the Queen's autho-
rity. If the prisoner knew from whence it came he
was guilty, and if he had distributed it knowing the
intent, then he was not only a leader, but in a cer-
tain sense the leader of the conspiracy.
The jury were an hour and a half absent, and
when they returned into court with the verdict of
" Guilty on all the counts of the indictment,"
the prisoner addressed the court coolly, and with
deliberation. He said—" My lords, I was not
unprepared for this. I felt that a Government which
had so safely packed the bench would not be un-
likely to obtain a verdict." (Judge Fitzgerald here
intimated to the prisoner that, 'bile the court were
willing to hear anything he had to say, language of
that kind could not be permitted.) O'Leary re-
sumed—" Very well, my lord. Mr. Luby declined
to touch upon this from a very natural fear that he
might do harm to some of the other political priso-
ners, but there can be little fear of that now, for a
jury that could be found to convict me of this con-
spiracy will convict them all. Mr. Luby admitted he
was technically guilty according to that highly elastic
instrument, British law, but I did not think that those
men" (here the prisoner pointed to the benches
where the Crown counsel sat) " could make that
case against me. And this brings me naturally to
a subject on which there has been much misrepre-
sentation in Ireland—the subject, I mean, of in-
formers. Mr. Justice Keogh said, in his charge
against Mr. Luby, that men would always be found
ready for money to place themselves at the dis-
posal of the Government, and make known the
designs of the conspiracy. No doubt men will
be found for money so to place themselves at
the disposal of the Government ; but I think
it is agitators, and not rebels, who have been
generally bought in this way, who have cer-
tainly made the best bargains. And now
I come to speak," added the prisoner, " of the
I moral assassination of me, for which that miser-
able man" (pointing to Mr. Barry, Q.C., law ad-
viser to the Irish Government) "is mainly respon-
sible." Here the judge again interrupted O'Leary,
and the prisoner said he would not pursue that tone
of observation. He, however, continued—" He
did not mean to defend himself or others now, but
he would denounce the moral assassin. Mr. Justice
Keogh had administered a lecture tt-) Mr Taaby
about the consequences of revolution, but he should
like to know whether the same consequences did
not follow war. Only one word more would he
say. He had been found guilty of treason—
treason-felony they called it—and no doubt it
was a foul crime. The poet Dante placed
traitors in the ninth or lowest circle of his In-
ferno.' But what traitors? Traitors against king,
country,' friends, rind benefactors. England was
not his (the prisoner's) country, and he had betrayed
no friends or benefactors. Hampden and Sidney
were traitors, and Jeffreys and Norbury were loyal
men. He would leave the case there." Except in
the closing passage, the speaker was calm and un-
impassioned.
Judge Fitzgerald immediately, in a short sentence,
awarded him the punishment of 20 years' penal
servitude— the same term as given to Luby.
While the jury were out of court considering
their verdict in O'Leary's case, O'Donovan (Rossa)
was put forward and addressed the court himself,
stating that he had got papers from America which
would contradict the testimony the detectives in-
' tended to offer against him, and show that he had
been in that country carrying on a legitimate busi-
ness ; but that when he had been removed with the
other prisoners from Richmond Bridewell to Kil-
mainham, those papers had been taken from him by
the governor of the latter prison, and probably had
been since in Dublin -Castle. The governor of the
prison was sent for, and stated that he had only
acted according to the rules of the gaol. He was
ordered to give the prisoners the papers, and the
trial was postponed until that of Moore, the man
charged with making the " rods," or pikes, to
Stephens's order, had been finished. Moore was
then arraigned, and his trial proceeded with.
DUBLIN, Thursday.
The Fenian pike-maker, Moore, was found
guilty to-day, and sentenced to ten years' penal
servitude. The evidence exclusively established a
contract between him and Stephens for the making
and distributing of pikes. It was also proved that
he had been sent back from America by O'Mahony in
order to make these weapons.
He alleged he had only been pursuing his trade
as a common working man, and denied he was guilty
of conspiracy. He asked that some trifling articles
seized by the Crown should be given to his wife,
and this was agreed to.
O'Donovan (Rossa) will be tried to-morrow.

The following hired sailing troopships are on their
way to England, bound to Spithead, with time-
expired and invalided officers and men from India
and China. From Madras, the ship Theresa sailed
on Aug. 31, with men, women, and children from
various regiments serving in the Presidency, under
the command of Lieut. J. E. Rogers, 102 d Regiment •
from Bombay, Oct. 13, the ship Talbot sailed, with
upwards of 200 men, women, and children, in charge
of Brevet-Major Hastings and Assist.-Sur. Wins-
low, 103 d Regiment. The other military officers on
board comprise Ensign Decette, 56th Regiment ;
Gildea, 72d Regiment ; and Barstow, 95th Regi-
ment. From Hongkong, on Oct. 14, the ship
Gresham sailed, with a large number of time-expired
and invalided men from both services, including
among the officers Capts. Burland and Gipps, 2d
battalion 9th Regiment ; Surg. Black and Lieut.
Vaughan, 2d battalion 11th Regiment.
EXTRAORDINARY PIKE FISHING.---Callater Loch,
which lies amid the wilds of the glen of that name, abounds
with the pike of large size, and the gamekeeper stationed
at the shooting-lodge there has recently made several good
takes by means of lines attached to floating buoys. One
morning he met with a vigorous resistance in pulling in
one of the lines, which had been baited over night, and it
was with great difficulty that he succeeded in raising the
cfiptured fish to the boat. The reason for the extra effort
that had been needed was found in the almost inci edible
fact that a trio of pikes were fast to a single hook. Two
of these had caught at the bait, and so been caught them-
selves, while the third- -a voracious animal, weighing
about 201 b. avoirdupois—had swallowed both the smaller
fish and had allowed himself to be drawn into the boat
rather than disgorge the morsel.--PuncieelAcivera3er.

Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

Yesterday a deputation of this institution was
held at its house, St. John-street, Adelphi—Thos.
Chapman, F.R.S., and president, in the chair.
There were also present—Captain Sir Edward Per-
rott, Bart., W. H. Harton; Esq., Admiral M'Hardy,
Admiral W. H. Hall, C. 8., F.R.S., Capt. Egerton,
R.N., Colonel Fitz-Roy, Clayton, Richard Lewis,
Esq., the secretary.

The minutes of the previous meeting having been
read, rewards amounting to £224 were granted for
different noble services by the following lifeboats
of the institution during the recent storms :—The
Portrush lifeboat rescued the crew of four men from
the schooner Clara Brown, of Barrow ; the Wex-
ford lifeboat saved 19 men from the ship Savoir-
Faire, • of Liverpool ; the Cahore lifeboat rescued
four' men from the same. vessel; the Palling-life-
boat saved 20 men and a pilot from the ship Orso,
of North Shields ; the Whitburn lifeboat rescued
six men from the schooner Token, of Jersey, and a
few days after again went off and saved six men
from the schooner Test, of Southampton ; the
Tenby lifeboat saved a lad from the smack Mary,
of Cardigan ; the Theddlethorpe lifeboat savedninc
men from the fishing smack Splendid, of Grimsby ;
the Howth lifeboat saved five men from a lighter;
the Plymouth lifeboat saved 11 men from the brig
Espoir, and 11 men from the brig Commerzle-
weathin Hanpt, of Mecklenburgh ; the Penzance
lifeboat rescued . five men from the brigantine
Tobaco, of Hamburg; and the Fowey lifeboat went
off twice in one day, and saved 13 men from the
barque Drydens, of North Shields, and nine men
from the brig Wearmouth, of Sunderland.

The silver medal of the institution was voted to
Mr. J. Heath, chief boatman of the Coastguard,
and coxswain of the Fowey lifeboat, in admiration
of his skill and daring in assisting to save, under
very perilous circumstances, the shipwrecked crews
of the vessels before named.
Rewards amounting to £l7B were also voted to
pay the expenses of the lifeboats of the institution
stationed at Howth, Pakefield, Berwick, Rosslare,
Barmouth, Portcawl, Swansea, Cemlyn, Penzance,
Porthdiullaen, Pehrith, Newquay (Cum -wall), chd,
ter, Broughty Ferry, Skerries, and New Brighton,
for either going out and rendering assistance to
vessels in distress, or for putting off in reply to
signals of distress to render services to different
vesssls which, however, had afterwards got out of
danger.
It appears that during the gales of November the
lifeboats saved 124 shipwrecked persons in addition
to bringing two vessels safely into port. Altogether
421 lives have been saved by the lifeboats of the in-
stitution during the eleven months of the present
year, in addition to bringing fourteen vessels safely
into harbour.

It was reported thatjts lifeboats had been manned
during the past three years by about 18,000 per-
sons, and that out of that large number only three
men had been lost.

General Sir George Bowles, the donor of the
Howth lifeboat, was so pleased with the services of
that boat on a recent occasion in saving five poor
fellows from a watery grave, that he has decided on
giving the institution the cost of another lifeboat.

The silver medal of the institution and £1 were
voted to Gunner James Moore, and £1 each, and
the thanks of the institution inscribed on vellum, to
two other men of the Coast Brigade of Royal Ar-
tillery, stationed at Aberdovey, for rescuing, at
some risk of life, 17 men of the crew of the French
ship Carioca, which had struck on the rocks under
the Hermitage Rock Battery during a gale of wind
on the 19th October last.
The silver medal of the institution and £2 were
also voted to Peter Pascoe for rescuing, at the risk
of his life, a man who had previously attempted to
assist in saving the life of a sailor belonging to the
barque William of Sunderland, which was wrecked
off Porthleven, on the 24th ult. A reward of £1
was also granted to the man Pascoe had saved.

Various other rewards were granted for saving
life from wrecks on our coasts.

Payments amounting to upwards of £3,000 were
ordered to be made on various lifeboat establish-
ments. The sale of £2,000 stock of the institution
was ordered to be made to meet these heavy pay-
ments.

Reports were read from the inspector and the as-
sistant inspector of lifeboats to the institution on
their repent visit to the various lifeboat stations on
the coasts of England and Scotland. It was re-
ported that G. Jeremy, Esq., and Mrs. Jeremy had
presented £4OO to the institution to defray the cost
of a lifeboat and carriage to be stationed either on
the coast of Devon or Cornwall.

A communication was read from Captain A. R.
Weston, of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Na-
vigation Company's steamer Simla, forwarding
£5O Bs. 7d., and stating that he was using his best
endeavours to collect the cost of a Simla lifeboat
amongst the passengers sailing on board his vessel
between Calcutta and Aden, to be presented to the
institution.

The contributors to the Quiver magazine, pub-
lished by Messrs. Cassell *and Co., had generously
contributed the cost of a lifeboat to be called the
" Quiver."
Legacies of £lOO by the late Capt. Brown, of
Kilmarnock, and £lOO by the late James M'Nab,
Esq., of Guildford, had been received by the insti-
tution. The late Mr. T. Boys and Mr. Dudley
Costello had also recently left the institution
legacies.
During the past month the institution had sent
new lifeboats to Anstruther, Tynemouth, Bacton,
and Cemlyn. The cost of the lifeboat for Tyne-
mouth had been contributed by the people at Ponte-
fract and Goole, where she was publicly exhibited
on the 6th inst. on her way to the station, Lady
Houghton, supported by Lord Houghton, Lord and
Lady Cathcart, and the gentry of the neighbour-
hood, kindly naming the boat on the occasion.

Other business having been transacted, the pro-
ceedings of the meeting terminated.

FOUNDERING OF A STEAMBOAT. AT SEA.—On Wed-
nesday morning the steamboat Leander, belonging
to North Shields, put out to sea for the purpose of seeking
vessels making for the Tyne, to tow them in. After the
boat had got out a considerable distance off the bar they
descried a vessel to all appearance making for the harbour.
The Leander immediately proceeded in the direction of
the vessel to inquire if they would allow them to take the
vessel in tow. The steamboat went alongside, and, while
matters were being arranged between the captains of the
Leander and the vessel, a terrific sea struck the steamboat
on her side, and sent her with great force against the right
beam of the vessel, smashing her paddlecase to pieces, driv-
ing the iron beam completely through her, and nearly
opening her in two. She began to sink almost immedi-
ately, and the crew just had time to jump into the boat
before she went down. Tho vessel by this time was reach-
ing before the wind, and was at some distance from them
quite unable to render assistance. The men in the boat
were tossed about on the waves, expecting every moment
to be swallowed up by the angry sea. They pulled as best
they could, but all their efforts seemed to be fruitless, as
the force of the sea drove them hither and thither. Another
steamboat, however, the Renard, belonging to Shields, had
seen the occurrence, and knowing the imminent peril the
mon were exposed to, bore down upon them and succeeded
in laying hold of the boat before any accident occurred.
The crew were taken aboard and brought to the harbour
in safety.
