Mr. LAING-Oh ! I've no doubt of it. What money is
it that his wife is entitled to ? Mr. Hill explained that
Mrs. Gutheridge's mother had lately died possessed of
3501., and having left no will behind her, the defendant had
taken advantage of the circumstance to stop the payment of
that sum to the complainant and her two sisters, because
they would not consent to his dividing it as he liked.
Mr. Riley, the landlord of the Green Man and Still, in
Coppice-row, said he had many times given the complainant
refuge in his house, to protect her from the violence of the
defendant. He had more than once seen the blood stream-
ing from the complainant's nose and mouth, which had pro-
ceeded from the prisoner's ill usage.
A solicitor who attended for the defendant, but who had
hitherto refrained from making any remark, said he had been
instructed to say that, until very lately, the defendant and
his wife had lived very happily together.
Wife—He has ill-treated me for the last two years.
Solicitor—l of course cannot attempt to palliate the con-
duct of my client here.
Mr. LAING-I should think not, indeed ; and as I shall
adjourn the case until Thursday next, let me advise you to
persuade him to enter into some arrangement with his wife,
for he may depend upon it that I won't spare him when he
comes before me again, if he has not made some amends to
her. Mr. Laing then directed Bugg to ascertain on
Thursday the amount of the weekly earnings of the de-
fendant, who he was determined should contribute pretty
handsomely from them to the maintenance of his wife
and child.
The case was accordingly adjourned. The unfeeling re-
marks of the defendant seemed to give much pain to his
unfortunate wife, who was nearly choking with grief.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL' S.

The betting has undergone some important alterations since our
last report. Rioter has been backed freely for the Portland, and
left off yesterday afternoon as good, if not a better favourite than
Birdlime ; Sheet Anchor is also in increased demand, but Scott's
two are on the decline. The two Derby favourites have improved
three points each, and have been backed jointly at 4 to 1 ; the
principal betting, however, has been on the outsiders, many of
whom have been backed with considerable spirit. The closing
prices yesterday afternoon were as follow :

from his evidence, always punishirg. it by confinement,
unless under circumstances of great\aigravation. We
have heard of some very remarkable fr4caneeB of Inen''
having been reclaimed from this vice by no more severe
measure than the considerate remonstrances of 'their
officers ; and lest it should be supposed that we are
overstating this point, we beg to take the following
passage from the Report of the Commissioners :
" There are some regiments in the service in which, by
the prudence and skill of the Commanding Officer, and by
his unremitting attention and kindness to the soldier, the
use of corporal punishment has been entirely avoided, and
some of those officers speak confidently of being able to Iva-
nage their regiment by what may be called moral discipline,
rather than by severe punishments. We have no doubt
that rare instances have occurred of that sort, but it is too
much to assume that, in fact, this moral discipline would
have been so effectual if there had not been a knowledge,
on the part of the men, that, if driven to it, corporal punish-
ment was within the reach of their officers?'
With reference to the last point of this extract,
let us hear Sir Octavius Carey, when asked as fol-

lows :
