THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1854,

lIAVERFORD WEST PETTY SESSIONS. ,

A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEST CHARGED
WITH COMMITTING A RAPE.
The magistrates present were the Rev. Thomas Mar-
tin, J. L. Morgan (who left before the close of the pro-
ceedings), James Owen, James Higgon, and John Hig-
gon, Esqrs.
Res. Patrick, Kelly, Roman Catholio priest, stationed
at Milford, was charged with having committed a rape
on the person of Mary Sullivan, a girl about fourteen
years of age.
Mr. J. Lloyd appeared for the complainant, and Mr.
J. E. Evans for the defendant.
Mary Sullivan deposed—l was fourteen years of age
last March, and live with my father, Patrick Sullivan, a
marine store dealer at Milford. I know the Rev.
Patrick Kelly, in whose service I was occasionally for
about four months. I remember Thursday, the 14th
instant. I was, about five minutes past six o'clock on
that evening, in Mrs. Stribling's back place, where Mr.
Lloyd used to keep a school. At my father's house in
the evening I saw defendant. He said "Oh Mary, you
are the person I want." I said perhaps one of my brothers
will do, as I am very busy, and Mrs. George wants me.
He said " No, nobody but you." He looked at his watch
and said it was six o'clock. My father asked what time I
should go down, and he said in five minutes, and Mr.
Kelly told me to be sure not to go to Mrs. Stribling'e
front door, as she did not like Irish people to go to her
front door. I went down to the back door in five mi-
nutes afterwards, and Mr. Kelly was standing there
and let me in, and bolted the door as soon as I was
in. There was another door in another part of the
passage, which he also fastened. He then went into
the vestry-room of the Roman Catholic chapel from
the passage and called me in. He had a bottle is
his hand, and he said, come in for the bottle. It was
a large bottle. I had been in the habit of fetching things
in bottles for him. I went to take the bottle and he
laid hold of me by the hand. I pulled my hand loose,
and I went to run.througla the passage arid he ran after
me before I could have time to go down into the pas-
sage. The room was up two steps, and before I could
get down he pulled me back by the frock and I fell down.
I gave that frock to Mr. Kelly, the police superinten-
dent. This frock produced is the one I then wore.
Afterwards I took the skirt off intending to put it to
another body—this rent was done at that time. When
he pulled me I fell back on a mat. I had just got to
one step. I fell to the ground. (The witness here gave
evidence which distinctly proved the commission of the
capital offence,but which is altogethei unfit forpublica-
tion.) I can't tell how long I was down, but when I woke I
found him standing near me. He again attempted to lay
hold of me. I then pulled myself away from him, and the
sleeve of his coatrubbed against the wall, and he said, "The
devil fire you wherever you go." I then took the loot.:
tle, and he opened the door and asked me to shake hands
with him. I said, "No, you can only give your bene-
diction." He said, "Oh, puff, that's like a breeze of wind
blown away." He said, "You know well I did not mean
it." I said, " I dare say what you say you mean," and
the door was opened, and I then went away with the
bottle for the whisky. I called.into a house, Mrs. Sut-
ton's, in the back street, and called her daughter,
Ellen M'Carty, and told her everything that he did
to me, but I did not tell her that he did anything
improper to me. (The complainant here repeated all
the statements which she made to Ellen M'Carty,
and which she had already given to the court, save
that she did not state to her the commission of the capi-
tal offence.) When I left Ellen M'Carty I went for the
whisky to Mrs. Davies's. I then was going to take it
to my house, in order that one of my brothers might
take it up, but before I got home the priest met me
and took it from me and put it in his pocket, and he
told me to go down to Mr. Witcher, or any shop I
liked, and see the price of the prints, and come to him
on Saturday evening at six o'clock, and he would
give me money to buy a dress. I then went to
my work, and never said anything to him. When
I told Ellen 111`Carty, Mrs. Sutton was not present,
but she asked ins should she tell her, and I said
yes, and she told Mrs. Sutton in my presence what I
bad told her. I returned from work to my father's
house about nine o'clock. Father and mother were in,
but I did not say anything to him then, but father was
going out and I went out with him, and he asked me
about it, and I told my father all. As soon as I sat
down father called me out and I told him everything. I
then went up stairs and in about an hour mother called
me down, and I told her all. Mr. Heslop examined me
on the Monday following. Nothing happened to me
between the Thursday and Monday.
Mr. Luke C. Heslop—l am a surgeon, residing in
Haverford-west. I examined the person of Mary Sulli-
van on Monday last. I examined .her professionally.
[This witness gave evidence which proved that there had
been a violation of the person, but stated that these ap-
pearances would have been shown even had the girl
bean a consenting party. The evidence, however, is
unfit for publication.]
Mr. Evans replied to the evidence in a speech, the
intention of which was to throw a doubt upon the pro-
secutor's evidence.
The prisoner was asked if he had anything to say.
He pleaded not guilty.
The Rev. James Kenny was called, but did not ap.
pear, as was also another party.
Mr. Superintendent Kelly stated that he was unable
to effect a service of the summons upon these witnesses.
Mary Stribling, the landlady of Mr. Kelly, gave evi-
dence as to the position of the chapel and her kitchen,
and stated that on the evening in question, she did not
hear the noise of any scuffle in her back premises-
On her cross-examination by Mr. Lloyd, she positively
swore that Mr. Kelly came into the house a little before
6 o'clock, and went directly up to his room, took his tea,
and cli.l not leave his room till about 7 o'clock. He did
not go back to the chapel, or to the vestry-room.
Mr. J. D. Brown, surgeon, deposed that ho examined
the girl •on Wednesday morning last, and swore that
there was no recent rupture. Mr. Brown's medical evi-
dence, like Mr. Heslop's, is unfit for publication.
Mr. Charles Petizley (examined as to the character of
the complainant)—Swore that during the time she was
in his employ, he had reason to complain of her fre-
quently, sad to doubt her veracity.. A great part of
this witness's evidence was objected to by the magistrates
because of its irrelevancy.
Mary John, the servant of Mrs. Stribling, merely cor-
roborated her mistress's evidence, save that she swore
that Mr. Kelly came in to tea at 7 o'clock and not at 6
o'clock.
Mr. Lloyd partially recapitulated the evidence for the
Crown, and attempted to show that all the evidence that
could corroborate the complainant's charge had been
given ; that immediately upon leaving the house she had
stated to Ellen M'Carty sufficient to prove that some
improper act had been committed by the defendant, and
closed his address by maintaining that the case ought to
be sent to the, jury.
Mr. Kelly desired to be heard in consequence of some
imputations which had fallen from the opposite attorney,
and also to call attention to the discrepancy of time in
the statements of the complainant and Ellen M'Carty.
The Bench decided, however, but with evident reluc-
tance, that he could not be heard personally, as he had
been heard by his attorney.
The magistrates were divided in their opinion. Mr.
Martin and Mr. Owen were for sending the case to a
jury, and Mr. James Higgon and Mr. John Higgon
were for an acquittal.
Mr. Evans contended that, as the bench was thus
equally divided, his client was entitled to an acquittal.
Mr. Lloyd, on the contrary, maintained that as two
magistrates were for a committal, the case ought to go
the jury.
The magistrates having come to no decision, the de-
fendant was permitted to go free.

EXPORTATION OF SUGAR FROM TRIESTE TO ENGLAND
—TRIESTE, Sept. 20.—The Trieste Gazette says :—" We
alluded recently to the considerable decrease in the sugar
trade of our town. We just learn a fact that confirms
our words. A house in this city, that has carried on for
years the largest business in raw sugars, but which was
fully prepared for a further diminution this year of its
usual supplies from transatlantic countries, sees, not-
withstanding this, no possibility of finding a market
here for the sugar on hand, and is consequently shipping
stock to London. For this purpose the house in ques-
tion has already chartered two ships, the Austrian Aureo
and the English Sarepta. Shipping raw sugar at Trieste
for England is a perfectly new event in the annals of
trade." _ _ _

" ONE MAN, IN EIS TIME, PLAYS MANY PARTS."—
At the Town-hall, Leicester, on Monday last, on the
conclusion of business, an aged hut intelligent-looking
negro presented himself before the Bench, and handed
to the magistrates a memorial, which told the following
tale :—He was stolen at the age of eleven years, taken
by the slave traders to the West India islands, and sold
in the slave market at Tobago. He was there bought
by a gentleman and "given" to the Rev. T. Fancourt,
who brought him to England, as a servant, in the year
1800. He received the name of Joseph Cooper, and
was for some time foot-boy to the late Mr. Buxton, of
Danett's Hall, Leicester. When his services were no
longer required in this capacity, he enlisted in the Rut-
land Militia, from which regiment he volunteered into
the regulars, and served in H.M. 69th Foot about seven
years. This sable soldier was present at several engage-
ments ; amongst others, the battle of Waterloo, and re-
ceived his discharge in the April following that action,
when he returned to Leicester, and obtained employ-
ment in the trimming and dyeing business under the late
John Moore, Esq., for whom he worked 23 years ; and
he bad since been employed by other masters in the same

business.
PROTECTION OF TRADH MARKS.— Hitherto an enor-
mous amount of fraud has been perpetrated in various
parts of the world, and more especially in the British
colonies, by the piracy on the part of unprincipled per-
sons of the private marks of houses of established repu-
tation and success. • Our attention has been called to a
plan which Mr. Hibbert, the barrister, has propounded,
and which seems calculated to meet the evil. Mr. Hibbert
proposes the establishment of a Central Registry ofTrade
Marks, where any person will be enabled, on the pay-
ment of a fee, to procure the registration of his peculiar
trade mark or symbol in the register book, tho office
giving him a certificate of the registration ; and on this
document it is proposed to have a marginal emblazon•
!tient of the certified mark or symbol, corresponding with
that in the registrar's office. Any person procuring. such
a certificate is to have an absolute property in the certi-
fied mark or symbol for 20 years, which may be re-
newed by himself or his representatives at the expiration
of that time. "The holder of the certificate to have
the right of procuring summarily and cx parte from any
County Court in England, or any court of corresponding
jurisdiction in Ireland or Scotland, or any court of
civil jurisdiction in any of her Majesty's colonies and
dependencies,. a prohibitory order or inhibition to pre..
vent the piracy of his marks—the penalty for any breach
of such order or inhibition to be imprisonment, as in the
case of an injunction now granted by the Court of Chan-
eery. "•—Liverpool 07troraide. .

second beating the third the same distance—good fourth.
Lady of Lyons was very restive, and was left at the post.
On returning to scale, the rider of Nagara preferred a
complaint against the rider of the Nina colt for swerving
upon hire at the finish. At the conclusion of the races
the case was brought before the Stewards, and, after
hearing evidence, was dismissed.

the lead, and was joined in the Abingdon Mile Bottom
by Miss Bolton, who, admirably ridden by young
Rogers, made a good effort to achieve the victory, but

was caused by the fractious disposition of Katie Stew-
art, the start was effected. Rifleman and Bonnie Morn
were first off, but as soon as they got into running Re-
fraction colt took the lead, and on he gallopped with it
until they arrived half-way between the new ground
and the cords. Rifleman then shot to the front, and the
race from that point was between him and Bonnie Morn,
the latter was, however, beaten cleverly by half a length;
three lengths separating the second from the third ;
Cavalier was a bad fourth, Nagara fifth, Refraction colt
sixth. After the race Rifleman was backed for nearly
1,0001. at 15 to 1 for the Derby ; the layers were, how-
ever,. willing to go on at those odds.

THURSDAY EVENING.—The autumnal campaign at
bead-quarters was opened very successfully. The sup-
ply of sport exceeded the First October's average, and
the proceedings were marked by incidents of interest and
importance.
The list of attractions was materially strengthened by
the introduction of the Eastern Counties Handicap into
Tuesday's programme—a " feature" established by the
liberality of the railway company whose designation it
bears, and there is every probability that it will become
highly popular.
The most important and interesting race was for the
Triennial Stakes for two-year-olds run this day. The
encounter between Bonnie Morn and Rifleman excited
peculiar interest, and the result is likely to exercise a
marked influence over speculation on next year's Derby.
At starting, 2 to 1 was freely betted on Bonnie Morn,
and 3 to 1 agst Rifleman ; the latter, however, defeated
the favourite cleverly by half a length. 15 to 1 was
afterwards taken freely abciit him for the Derby, but it
was reported that, en route to London, 20 to 1 was laid.
Throughout the three days the betting on the Cesare-
witch and Cambridgeshire was remarkably limited.
Muscovite was the only horse in demand for the former
event • the latest quotation against him was 6 to 1
(taken).
A continuance of brilliant weather heightened the en-
joyment of the sport. The racing to-day commenced
at twelve o'clock, and terminated at two. A special
train, provided for the sporting visitors, left Newmarket
soon after three, and reached London by about half-past
five.

Notice—Barrel, Kennyside Hero, and Domino are
struck out of their respectile engagements at Chester
next week.

RISE IN THE PRICE OF BREAD.—Yesterday a number
of the bakers in the metropolis increased the price of
their bread a halfpenny the 41b. loaf. In the poor and
densely populated localities the ordinary price among
the cheap bakers is now 70. for what is termed " best
wheaten bread," and for " good wheaten bread," or
" seconds," it is a halfpenny less ; but where competition
among the bakers is keen, the former quality is fre-
quently to be bad for 7d. the 41b. lf. Other bakers
are selling their limed at various prices up to 9d. the
41b. loaf. The corn chandlers are selling their flour at
from 2s. 6d. to 3s. per peck of 14 pounds.
FATAL MISADVENTURE OF A SOLDIER.—On Tuesday
night, about nine o'clock, as a picket of the 51st regi-
ment of Infantry, at the Salford barracks, was passing
the Regent-road bridge across the Irwell, into Manches-
ter, a private belonging to the same regiment, who is
supposed to have been anxious to escape observation,
crossed the battlements on one side the bridge and dis-
appeared. A policeman saw him get over the bridge, and
an alarm was given. On searching the river-banks no
trace of him was found. Yesterday morning, however,
his lifeless body was discovered in the water, and there
is little doubt that he lost his life immediately on crossing
the wall. He ought to have been at the barracks at the
time, and it is supposed that he either thought the bat-
tlemtnts of the bridge to be ordinary walls, and did not
know there was a river below, or that he had gone over
hoping to hold on whilst the picket was passing. Un-
fortunately the coping stones of the wall have rounded
edges, leaving nothing for the hands to hold by, whilst
there was no ledge outside, as in ordinary masonry of
the kind, at the level of the road, upon which he could
rest his feet. The man's name was Gornto M'Caffray,
and he was 21 years of age.
THE RESIGNATION OF TIM CANADIAN MINISTRY.—
It would be difficult to point out another period in the
history of Canada at which the chief offices of Govern-
ment have been vacated with so apparent a necessity
for a great change, and yet with so much difficulty in
supplying the wants of the public service. The announce-
ment was no sooner made yesterday that the Ministry
had resigned, and that their resignation had been ac-
cepted, than the political vane was driven about by
rumour to every quarter from which the public had been
taught to look for the substance of an Administration.
Sir Allan M`Nab, as the reported leader of the Op-
position, was, of course, said to be the member
whom Lord Elgin empowered to form a Government,
and, as that undertaking was known to be difficult at
this crisis, the expectations of its success were not very
sanguine. The names of various gentlemen of every
shade in politics were successively bandied about as the
future occupants of the Treasury benches, and in the
same breath their invincible objections to take office
were urged. The possibility of any other than a coin-
binetion Government not being dreamt of, conjecture
was chiefly confined as to what fusion would most nearly
respond to the wishes of the country. The uncertainty,
however, which necessarily attaches to an attempt by
any leader to form a Government at so short a notice
was such as to induce even the acutest observer to sus-
pend his judgment. There is no doubt that, by mutual
concession, a strong, and we trust harmonious, coalition
cabinet may be to-day formed, a cabinet which is sure
of a fair trial from the country, and, if deserving, of an
independent but generous support.—Quebec Morning
Chronicle.
FATAL ACCIDENT ON LOUGH ERNE.—On Saturday,
the 23d, as Arthur D'Arcy, fifth son of William D'Arcy,
Esq., Necarn Castle, was sailing from home to his
brother-ir .law's, Castle Caldwell, in his yacht the Eagle,
the wind blowing strong, he lay to for the purpose of
taking in another reef, when a squall came on and up-
set her more than two miles from any shore. Mr.
D'Arcy and a sailor boy swam to a boat attached to the
yacht, and were saved ; but unfortunately three others
were drowned, supposed to bo in the cabin—Oliver, the
sailor ; Samuel Moore, a builder ; and a servant-boy
named Graham. Neither yacht nor an of the three
Men were seen by Mr. D'Arcy or young Oliver when
they reached the row-boat. About half-past six the
accident happened.

THE BYZANTINE COURT AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE.—
the arcade next the nave is from the church of St. Mary
in the capital, at Cologne, one of the most interesting
structures in what has been justly called the Rome of
this side the Alps. The arcade probably belongs to
the tenth century. The marblings and general decora-
tion of this side of the court are very creditable to Mr.
Baensen, by whom they were executed. The ceiling of
the cloister is an admirable piece of coloured decoration.
The Shobden doors, the Kilpeck doors, the mosaics
from St. John Lateran, at Rome, and the bronze doors
from Hildesheim and Augsburg, are against the sides
opposite to those shown in the view. The bronze doors,
both of the eleventh century, are particularly interest-
ing. In passing round, notice the elegance of the
ornament in the abacus of the capitals of the Shobden
chancel arch, and some of the foliage in the Prior's door-
way, from Ely, thoroughly Greek in derivation. The
whole of this Court will repay the most careful study ;
but it is a source of mystification to many, who are
unable to bring under one heading the works of various
dates, characters, and countries which it includes. Some
intelligent guides, not to say lecturers, are greatly needed
in the Crystal Palace. Ale the present moment, it is
scarcely possible to find any one to whom the simplest
question can be addressed. If we had not been told
differently, we should have imagined that the while
board of directors, including the secretary, went out of
town the week after the opening, and had never been
heard of pine,-214 Builder.
