to keep him when he was out of work, and because I
could not do it he went away to his brother's house.
Mr. Paynter—Has he ever beaten you before ?—The
complainant—Yes, sir ; this is not the first time he has
ill used me.
Margaret Roach next stated that she was th wife of
the prisoner's brother. The assault took place in her
house. The prisoner and his wife had some words to-
gether, and before he beat her witness got up and ran
out of the room to call for assistance, as she expected he
was going to beat his wife. Witness had previously heard
the prisoner accuse his wife with following him about.
Mr. Paynter—Did you see the prisoner strike his
wife ?—The witness—When I ran out I looked back, and
saw him kick her. I only want to tell what I saw.
Alfred Crittle, police constable, No. 239, D division,
said the complainant came up to him with her face
covered with blood, and said her husband had been
beating her, and that her life was in danger from his
violence, and she wished to give him into custody. He
went in search of the prisoner, and ultimately found
him in the Victoria beer-shop. He told him that he
must go to the station for beating his wife, and he said
very well, and at once admitted that he had ill-used
her. On the way to the station, the prisoner said with
an oath, that if he were sent to prison for it, he would
do for her when he came out. He gave no reason or ex-
cuse for his violent conduct. The complainant was a
very sober woman, and he had seen her mistress that
morning, and she stated that she was an honest and
industrious woman. The complainant had only been
married three months to the prisoner.
Mr. Paynter—Well, what have you to say to this ?
The prisoner—A week ago she blackguarded me, and
called me all the names she could think of; and said I
might go. Last night she came to my brother's, and
again abused me. I could not stand her temper.
Mr. Paynter—You, and all other husbands, must put
up with your wive's temper, for if you do not, you will
find the law too strong for you. You cannot be allowed
to go on as you have hitherto.
The complainant was then recalled, and she said, in
answer to questions put to her by the magistrate, that
some words of course passed between them when she
saw her husband, but she was positive that she did not
call him by any bad names.
Mr. Paynter said, any person in conrt that had seen
the dreadful state the complainant was in, would at
once think the prisoner justly deserved to be committed
to prison for six months, and he should have no hesita-
tion in putting that in force, but for one reason, which
was, that he thought the punishment too lenient for
such a brutal and cowardly assault upon the complain.
ant. He should withhold his decision for a few days, as
he should like to know if the surgeon apprehended any
danger to the complainant from the injuries she had sus-
tained. His worship also remarked that when he pro-
nounced his judgment upon the case he should order
the prisoner to find two good sureties to keep the peace,
as he had held out a threat towards his wife while in the
presence of the officer.

WANDSWORTH.—Ebenezer TVedgewond, aged 18,
living at Castelnau-villas, Hammersmith-bridge-road,
Barnes, surrendered to his bail before Mr. Paynter, to
answer a charge of committing a rape upon Mary Ann
Hammerton.

Mr. Jennings Hamilton, a surgeon, living at West
Drayton, stated that his attention was called to the
young woman between eight and nine o'clock on Satur-
day evening, the Ist of October, by the direction of a
county magistrate, who told him the whole of the cir-
cumstances ; but he could not discover anything which
would indicate violence. A week having elapsed would
account for this fact. The witness then entered into
details which are not fit for publication.
The next witness was Harriet Palmer, who lives near
West Drayton. She stated that she was the half-sister
to the complainant. She received a letter from the
complainant after the first liberties had been taken by
the prisoner. Her sister stated that the cook laughed
at her, and told her to take no notice of it. Five or
six weeks afterwards she received a second letter, in
answer to which she advised her sister to acquaint her
mistress of what had taken place. The prosecutrix then
came home to her mother, who took her to Mr. Daniels,
a magistrate.
The witness was cross-examined by Mr. Watson, a
solicitor, who attended for the prisoner, and he subjected
her to such a severe and even humiliating cross•exami-
nation, that she could not answer him for sobbing.
Sergeant -Underhill, 6 V, now gave evidence to the
effect that he had received instructions, since the last
examination, to make an examination of the premises.
There was a door at the end of the landing, and when
closed he could only hear a faint noise in the room where
the father and the other son were making the manifold
writing-paper machines. His attention was also called
to two marks on the paint, where the prosecutrix fell.
Mr. Wedgwood, the father, interrupted him, and called
him "Mr. Cunning ;" and he told him it was impos-
sible for him to conduct the examination whilst he was
in an excited state.

The prosecutrix was recalled by the magistrate, and
she distinctly denied that she had ever addressed the
prisoner as her "dear Ebenezer" when he came home.
It was the cook that advised her not to stop to see her
mistress. The witness further said, in answer to the
magistrate, that she would be eighteen early in No-
vember.

Mr. Poynter next asked the proseentrix whether she
halloed when on the floor, and she answered that she
could not, as he had his hand on her neck, and pressed
his tace close to hers.

Mr. Paynter then observed that he took bail after the
first hearing, but he thought he could not do that now,
as the evidence had been very much strengthened, unless
the bail was doubled in amount.

Mr. Watson asked if the same gentlemen would be
taken, and Mr. Paynter replied in the affirmative ; and
two sureties in 4001. each were bound to produce the
prisoner at the Central Criminal Court Sessions.

the books he:found that a prisoner was reported to have
been four days without food. If such had been the fact
it would have been impossible for it to have escaped his
observation. Had frequently visited the gaol, and gone
from cell to cell without any complaints having been
irale to him.

Mr. Benfield, the surgeon, was then examined as to
the cases that had before been cited, and said that pri-
soners were excused from the crank labour on the
slightest complaint, even of headache. He would have
ordered food to the man under four days' absence of food
under any circumstances.
Dr. Barclay and Dr, Noble were examined as to their
opinion of the possibility of a man doing work, or even
being in a state not of utter exhaustion, who had been
kept for three weeks on so short an amount of diet as
that which the books appeared to show.
Mr. Massen, the governor, was examined as to the
specific cases which had been before enumerated, but
only repeated the substance of the evidence that he had
before given, of the course of visiting cells which he
pursued, of the reports that were brought before him,
and of the relative duties of himself and the sur-
geon in cases of stoppages of food. If he had known
a man being four days, or even two days, without food,
he would certainly have ordered food. In that particu-
lar case he was engaged three days out of the four at
the quarter sessions and on county business.
Godfrey, the warder, was then examined at great
length as to the way in which he made up his books,
and the various erasures and alterations that had been
made in the figures, and was still under examination,
when at a little before five o'clock the inquiry was ad-
journed till next day at e!even o'clock.
Several late prisoners in the gaol have given in their
names as desiring to be examined. 'Their evidence will
be taken to-day.

LEICESTER, OCT. 11.
The inquiry into the treatment of prisoners in the
Leicester County Gaol waa resumed at 11 o'clock this
morning.
William Godfrey's examination by Mr. Reeve was
continued—Numerous entries in his report-book were
referred to, with a view to show that they were erro•
neous. After about two hours spent in this way, Godfrey
said he was becoming quite confused.
Mr. Welsby said he did not wonder at it.
Godfrey said he had had many masters, both as a
soldier and a servant, and he had always borne the
character of being a good book-keeper.
Mr. Welsby—lf anything I can say now is of any use
to you, I will tell you that your evidence throughout
has done great credit to you, and I believe we all
think so.

Captain Williams and Dr. Baly both concurred.
Mr. Reeve—l am astonished at the accuracy with
which these books are kept, but from occasional errors
I seek to show that one or two particular cases of in-
humanity were not true.
Mr. Welsby—What are these cases ?
Mr. Reeve—l cannot say.
Mr. Welsby—You must know. Tell us which they
are, and we will investigate them fully.
Mr. Reeve—l cannot particularise them. I refer to
a remark of the Commissioner (Mr. Welsby) himself,
that there were plenty of cases of food being kept back
for two days.
Captain Williams—You appearing here on behalf of
the magistrates, and having admitted the general accuracy
of these books, I cannot understand how this inquiry
can go on. There may be an error here and there; but
I cannot see how you can benefit the case of the magis-
trates by going on with this inquiry. The men were
deprived of their food as a natural consequence of the
system. This was carried out to a very considerable
extent. You say the system has never been carried out
to the extent that these books prove to have been the
case ; yet you make the admission that these books have
been kept as accurately as they could have been kept.
Mr. Reeve then called for Dr. Shaw, but as he was
not present the commissioners proceeded with the exa-
mination of discharged prisoners.
Joseph Brown, an engineer and model-maker, who
had been in prison six months, complained of having
been ill while there, and of the surgeon treating him as
an impostor, until he began to spit blood, when, owing
to the interference of the governor and Mr. Hoskins,
Mr. Benfield was very attentive, ordered him to bed, and
gave him medicine. His principal complaint, however,
was against a Mr. Rugg, formerly assistant to Mr. Ben-
field, who, he said, had punished him by repeatedly
using a catheter when there was no necessity for it.
From a full examination of the entries in the surgeon's
journal, the commissioners felt satisfied that he bad been
properly treated.
In the course of his evidence Brown stated that he was
in a refractory (dark) cell for two days, but as he wished
to make a clean breast of it while about it, he would tell
the Commissioners that he had two candles, a box of
lucifer matches, and Milton's "Paradise Lost." In reply
to inquiries as to how he got those articles, he said he
was aware for a day or two before he went that he might
expect to go there, and he secreted them under his
clothes, which he was enabled td'do by being allowed to
go into the mechanics' room.

- William Burton, who had been in prison a month, said
he worked at the crank until the sweat came through his
shoes on to the floor. When he went in he weighed 12st
31b., and when he came out he was under 10st. He
stated that he was kept without food for two days, and
on many occasions had meals stopped.
The warder's book showed that various meals had been
stopped, but did not corroborate his statement, and some
other statements, reflecting on Godfrey, were positively
denied by that officer.
Frederick Holyoak, who had also been in prison, made
a long statement to show that he had been improperly
treated, but his statements were declared by Godfrey to
be entirely false.
[From a list of offences read by Mr. Reeve, it appeared
that Holyoak had been convicted of or charged with
offences 22 times.]
Isaac Weston, a framework-knitter, who had been in
prison for three months, from the 24th of December,
1847, for poaching, said, that when put to the crank he
worked until knobs came upon his arm. He showed
them to the surgeon of that time (not Mr. Benfield),
who took him off the crank. A few days afterwards the
governor ordered him back to the crank. The surgeon
afterwards excused him several times for two or three
days together. The next time he went to prison was also
for three months, for night-poaching. When he went in
he weighed 14st. 311 b., and when he came out he did not
draw lOst. He complained several times to the surgeon
(Mr. Benfield) of pains in the back and ankles, but he
received no attention. The crank labour was so severe
that he tried twice to break his arm across the crank
handle to get away from it, and he would not have cared
if he had broken his neck.

Mr. Benfield remembered Weston, but did not recol-
lect his complaining to him. If there had been any
complaint, with sufficient reason, he must have attended
to him. He saw every prisoner every day.
James Norman, who was committed for three months
for poaching in February, 1850, said he had been used
to hard work as a labourer, but mowing was nothing to
the crank. He suffered so much that he determined to
make himself ill to get away from it, and he dipped his
face in a basin of water several times when he was per-
spiring, and erysipelas broke out. While ill, the surgeon
treated him very kindly.
Richard Chesterton, also a poacher, who had been
committed for three months in October, 1851, stated
that before going to prison he had had one of his wrists
broken by a fall. He worked at the crank till this arm
was very much swollen, and he could not open his hand.
The governor, upon his complaining, had him removed
from the crank cell. When he had been in a fortnight
he had rheumatism very badly across the loins, and when
he was ordered to the bath he had to walk there on his
hands and knees. On Christmas-eve he was required to
go to the crank, and worked till his arm swelled again
very badly, and he could not clasp the handle. He
complained to the governor, who took him to pick
oakum, but he was unable to do that for several days.
His complaint was against the surgeon and the crank.
Mr. Benfield, in reply to the Commissioners, said he
had not the slightest recollection of this case. It was
impossible that he could have seen a man in such a state
and allow him to work.

William Pratt, who had been in gaol two calendar
months for stealing turnip-tops, spoke of the debilitating
effects of crank labour upon himself. He had five mus-
tard plasters on during the time he was in gaol, and
always had to go to work the next morning after they
were taken off.

William Gilbert, who bad been in prison two months
for poaching, complained of the crank swelling his wrist.
Mr. Reeve then stated that he had seen a great deal
of Mr. Musson during the last ten years, and had wit.
nessed many instances of his kindness and humanity.
Mr. Welsby said, all that had come out during these
proceedings showed that Mr. Musson was a man of great
humanity and honourable feeling.
Mr. Reeve observed, that if no evidence was brought
forward for Mr. Benfield, it was because it was felt to be
quite unnecessary.
As no other evidence was tendered, the inquiry was
then, at a quarter past 5 o'clock, closed.

The Electric Telegraph Company have just extended
their wires to Yarmouth and Lowestoft harbours.

the difficulty of giving an accurate statement of the odds
at starting. The principal incidents of the race are de-
scribed above, but amidst the confusion and excitement
which prevailed it was impossible to gather more elaborate
details. The most irnpertant changes are however accu-
rately indicated. The favourites were beated, King Pepin,
however, notwithstanding his lameness ran a thoroughly
game horse, and his performance was at least respectable.
Tce result occasioned no little surprise, Haco, the winner,
having been much slighted in the ring. Ard no won-
der, after his wretched exhibition at Doncaster, and
elsewhere. His owner and friends are large winners
having always entertained a very high opinion of the
horse's ability. In bets alone his owner wins 20,000/,
Haco was formerly the property of Sir Joseph Hawley,
and was bought at the sale of that gentleman's stud
some two or three years back. He now belongs to Mr.
-Wit. Barrett.

Additional interest was imparted to the proceedings
by the race for the whip—a contest which is now of
rare occurrence. Kingston was the fortunate "chal-
lenger." After the race the horses were much dis-
tressed, Teddington especially, was very leg weary, and
we hear that he broke down, a circumstance little sur-
prising when we consider that he had only an hour and
a half before competed for the Cesarewitch, with 9st 71b
on his back.

The sport commenced at twelve o'clock, and was
brought to a conclusion at half-past four. About an
hour after the last race a "special" conveyed the "ex-
cursionists" to London. The day was cloudy, but no
rain fell, and the weather was favourable to the enjoy-
ment of the sportr The attendance on the heath was
fully equal to the average.
