THE CROYDON UNION.

IMPORTANT INVESTIGATION.
Saturday being appointed for the hearing of the info'',
mation against the Master of the Croydon Workhouse
for misconduct, in ill-using one of the inmates of the es-
tablishment, the Magistrates assembled at the Town-hall
at twelve o'clock, and the Court was soon filled by the
inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood, who evinced
the utmost anxiety to hear the proceedings. The Magis-
trates composing the bench were—l). R. Warrington,
Esq., Chairman; J. Read, Esq.; J. Currie, Esq.; E. R.
Adams, Esq.; and S. Lucas, Esq. The Deputy Chair-
man and several members of the Board of Guardians were
present.

The informationeharged that the defendant, being Mas-
ter of the Croydon Union Workhouse, was summoned to
answer the complaint of the Board of Guardians for having,
on the Bth day of November, at the parish of Croydon,
misconducted himself in the said workhouse, by ill-treat-
ing John Clark, a poor person, then in such workhouse,
contrary to the statute, and for which offence he had ren-
dered himself liable to any penalty not exceeding 20/. Mr. Andrews attended on behalf of the Board of Guar-
dians, and Mr. John Drummond attended for the de-
fendant.
Richard Smith was then called, and in answer to ques-
tions from Mr. Andrews, he said that he was a pauper
in the workhouse, and he recollected the man, John
Clark, being in the house as a mendicant pauper. On
the morning after he came in he saw the master of the
house and the porter talking to him in the front yard,
and he heard Clark say he would not have his hair cut,
and that he would stab the first man who attempted to
cut it. The master of the workhouse had been insisting
upon cutting his hair, before he said he would stab any
man who attempted to do it. The master then ordered
Clark to go into the mendicant's room, and the defendant
told him to fetch the scissors, and he did so. He went
into the room and found the master and the porter strug-
gling with Clark, and the latter had a knife in his hand.
The knife was not open. While they were struggling
the iron weight of the skylight struck Clark on the nose
accidentally. After they had struggled some time the
master ordered a strait-waistcoat to be brought, and
Clark then said he would give in, but if any Magistrate
could be found he would have satisfaction. He would
not allow his hair to be cut till the strait-waistcoat was
brought, and it was not done by his permission or con-
sent. The man's clothes were torn during the scuffle,
and not afterwards. Witness was generally employed to
cut the hair of the paupers, but it was not usual to do it
on Sunday evenings.
Cross-examined—He was alarmed at the violence of
the man, and during the struggle was kicked by him.
Believes the clothes of the man were torn in the struggle
to get the knife from him. It is the custom of the work-
house to cut the hair of the mendicant paupers some
time or other, before they leave the house. He generally
cut the hair at night, unless he happened to be in bed,
and then it was done in the morning. On Sunday
nights it is generally left till the Monday morning, and
it being the custom that they should do a certain por-
tion of work before they go away ; their hair is cut for
the purpose of cleanliness before they mix with the
other paupers. If the man had submitted quietly, he
would have been put on the mill with the other paupers,
and then have had his breakfast and been discharged.
Clark appeared very excited, and he was, in consequence,
discharged without being put to work. He cut his hair
in the best way he could. He was no barber.
Mr. DRUMMOND—Did you cut his hair in a way so
as to disfigure him ? Witness—l don't know. I cut it
round in front the best way I could. I cut it the same
as I always cut the hair. I generally cut the hair of
the mendicant paupers.
Mr. CURRIE—Who gave you directions to cut the
man's hair ? Witness—The master of the workhouse.
William Truncheon, the porter, was next examined.
He stated that on Monday morning, the Bth November,
the defendant told him that Clark had drawn a knife
upon him. This was in the mendicants' room. Witness
told Clark that he was a constable, and asked him to
give up the knife. He refused to give it up. It was not
open. The master ordered me to take the knife from
him, and we both tried to do so, and we at length, after
a struggle, got it away. Did not hear Clark make use of
any threat. He struggled with us, and that was how
his clothes were torn. The master of the workhouse
cut a lock of his hair off and then gave the scissors to
Smith, and told him to cut it. He refused to have his
hair cut until a strait-waistcoat was brought, and he
then took off his coat and waistcoat and threw them
down, and said, " Now you may do what you like."
Smith then cut his hair, and the master of the work-
house stayed while it was being done. The hair was not
left long in some parts and short in others. A great
many mendicants come into the house, and the hair of
all of them is not cut. When it is already short enough
it is not cut. It was in struggling for the knife that the
man's clothes were tern.

Mrs. Mercaud—There was no struggling when they
had obtained possession of the knife. The hair of some
of the other paupers, who had been admitted on the
previous evening, was cut by Smith, and what he had
said to the contrary must be a mistake. Clark seemed
very much excited, and it appeared a very prudent and
necessary step to take the knife away from him.
At this stage of the proceedings a doubt was expressed
whether the Bench was competent to adjudicate in the
present matter, inasmuch as they were ex officio mem-
bers of the Board of Guardians.

Mr. Drummond said he apprehended that the dis-
qualification would only extend to any matter apper-
taining to the relief of the settlement, and that
they were quite competent to act as Magistrates,
and to decide upon a complaint like the present. He
would, however, waive any objection of this kind, and
he was quite content that they should decide the case.
Mr. Andrews now said that he had other witnesses to
the same facts, if the Bench thought it necessary to ex-
amine them.

Mr. DRUMMOND said, he would admit the facts to be
as already stated. _ _ _

Mr. CURRIE—Do you admit the man's hair was cut
against his will ? _ _ _

—Mr. DRUMMOND—I admit that, and I admit also that,
in acting as he did, the master was not justified in law.
All I wish to do is to show that there are extenuating
circumstances ; and I hope to satisfy the Bench that a
very slight fine will be sufficient to meet the justice of
the case.

A lengthened examination of witnesses then took
place, respecting the instructions of the Guardians to the
master of the workhouse, and one in particular, contain-
ing the words, "sheer his locks." At the conclusion
the Court was cleared, and the Magistrates deliberated
for about half an hour,'when the public were re-admitted.
The Chairman, addressing the defendant, said that
the Court convicted him of the offence imputed to him,
and, under all the circumstances, adjudged him to pay
a fine of 51. and costs, and in default he would be im-
prisoned for one month.

THE FIRE AT THE TOWER.—The Tower was
yesterday opened to the public for the first time since the
destruction of the Armoury. On Saturday last an ex-
tensive marquee was erected within the walls of the ruins,
in which are placed tables and benches for the purpose
of holding pieces of fused metal, musket and pistol bar-
rels, locks, flints, and other small articles, which have
been got out of the rubbish during the clearing away.
All these relics, as they are called, are carefully selected
and arranged, according to their supposed value, and are
ticketed at prices varying from 6d. to 11. Notwithstand-
ing the rain, which continued nearly the whole of the
day, some hundreds of persons of both sexes availed
themselves of the first opportunity afforded to view the
ruins. It was generally supposed, that on admission
within the gates the visitors would be at once allowed to
inspect the remains of the armoury ; but they were soon
undeceived, on learning that it was necessary to purchase
a ticket at the Armoury-office, by virtue of which they
were at liberty to view the whole of the Tower, accom-
panied by a Warden, just the same as before the calami-
tous event. It was amusing to see the anxiety many
many ladies evinced to purchase a piece of fused metal
or clinker, run into some fantastic shape, and the great
care with which they were deposited in reticules. A

UNIVERSITY IN TELLIGENCE.
OXFORD, DEC. 4.—The Professor of Political Eco-
nomy has signified his intention to deliver some supple-
mentary lectures on colonization on Monday next and
four following days, at the Clarendon, at two o'clock.
The following gentlemen have been elected scholars of
Jesus College :—L. C. Wood, J. Morgan, and R. P.

There were forty-eight candidates for University ho-
nours at the public examination just concluded ; of which
four are placed in the first class, seventeen in the second,
nine in the third, and nineteen in the fourth. A few
appear in the latter, who, though they were not candi-
dates, yet were judged to merit that distinction, and a
few were unsuccessful.
Lord Crewe's trustees have appointed the Rev. W.
Darnell, of Corpus Christi College, to the perpetual
curacy of Bamburgh, Northumberland.
The Lord Bishop of Salisbury has instituted the Rev.
E. Prodgers, of Trinity College, to the rectory of Upton
Lovell, Wiltshire, on the presentation of the Lord Chan-
cellor.

The Lord Bishop of Worcester has licensed the Rev.

THE WEATHER AND FLOODS.
AWFUL LOSS OF LIFE AND PROPERTY.

Exeter and the county generally have been visited by
tremendous storms of wind and rain. The following
particulars were obtained by our reporters, who ex-
pressly visited the places where the storm proved most
destructive :

It was at one time feared that the whole village of
Crediton would have been destroyed. All its inhabitants
concur in stating that they do not remember anything
approaching to such a terrific flood. The bridge over
the Creedy, on the Tiverton road, has been partially
swept away, and for several hours after seven o'clock in
the evening, the waters at Downes-bridge were so out
that people were prevented going to, or returning from.
Exeter. The storm appears to have extended many
miles to the north and west, the roads having been im-
passable bet Ween Sandford and Morchard Bishop. At
Sampford Courtenay, part of the Inn house, which ad-
joins a small brook, was swept clean off by the goods.
The river Oak was never known to rise so high as it
did on :Monday. The bridge was swept away at the
instant an apprentice boy of Farmer Ellacott's was pass-
ing on horseback and driving a bullock, and all three
were engulphed. The bullock • was found nine miles
down the river the next day, but the body of the poo
boy has not yet been discovered.
In the parish of Colebrooke the devastation has been
very great, and the destruction of property, chiefly be-
longing to people in the humbler classes of life, has, we
regret to say, been very great. The river Collie, which
has overflown its banks in several places, has laid waste
and damaged a great deal of land, and in some instances,
such was the suddenness of the storm, the cattle have
been caught up by the rapidly formed floods and carried
to great distances before they could be recovered and
carried to places of safety. Four bridges have been swept
away in its progress. In the little village of Coleford a
melancholy and distressing :,pectacle meets the eye; no
less than seven or eight buildings being entirely de-
stroyed, comprising the property of humble industrious
individuals, who have, by this unfortunate event, been
deprived of their little all. At Coleford three houses were
inundated, and the foundations swept from beneath the
buildings, leaving nothing to save them from a universal
crash but a few timbers, which were barely sufficient to
keep them standing, and the utmost efforts of the vil-
lagers were used to prevent the total destruction of the
property. Another smith's shop and other outbuildings,
belonging to James Davey, were also destroyed. The
loss of property occasioned by this distressing occur-
rence may be roundly estimated at about 500/., the
whole being the fruits of industrious labour. We hear
that measures are already on foot for the purpose of re-
lieving the distresses of the unfortunate sufferers by sub-
scription among the gentry and yeomanry of the dis-
trict, and also for the erection of new bridges in the
places of those which have been swept away.
At Layne Ford, which was visited by a similar
storm on Monday last, we have the painful duty to re-
cord the melancholy death, by drowning, of the lady and
son of the Rev. Mr. Hughes, Curate of Clanuaborough,
together with a male servant, named Knowles.

On Monday last, the Rev. H. A. Hughes, of Clanna-
borough, and his family, went to Bondleigh (Rev. Mr.
Garrow's) to meet a party of friends at a christening at
that gentleman's house. They set off from Bondleigh
(Mr. and Mrs. Hughes and servant in their phaeton,
and his son on horseback) about six o'clock, to return
to Clannaborough. The weather had been tempestuous,
and the extraordinary heavy rain that fell about four
o'clock the same afternoon had caused a violent swell of
the brooks and rivers. They passed through one or two
brooks without danger, though with difficulty, until they
reached Hayne -bridge, which is below the village of
Zeal, Monselborum, on the road to Bow ; here the
waters were both extensively spread over the meadows,
and the stream rapid. Here two labourers were waiting,
' being unable to return home, and, on Mr. Hughes's ap-
proach, persuaded him not to venture to pass. Mr.
Hughes's son made the attempt to pass over the bridge
on horseback, in which he succeeded, and turned back
again to direct his father how best to come through.
Returning upon the bridge his horse, either stumbling or
getting his foot into a hole, fell directly over the side of the
bridge with his rider. At this moment Mr. Hughes ap-
proaching with the carriage ; his horse turned, and the
current taking the body of the carriage, carried the
whole into the stream. The labourers heard a scream
and a splash, and then all was silent as the grave. The
fatal consequence of this awful calamity is the death of
Mrs. Hughes, her son George Hughes, about 18, and the
servant boy, about 15. Mr. Hughes himself was saved
most providentially by the cool judgment and intre-
pidity of Mr. Ribbings, of Zeal, who, from his know-
ledge of the ground, waded into the water a great dis-
tance, where he thought, if at any place, the few bushes
might be the means of stopping any thing washed down
the current. After stopping and hollowing he fancied
he heard a faint noise, when he saw the head of Mr.
Hughes above the water, supported by an alder, bush ;
getting near him, and cautiously getting a firm hold, ho
succeeded in getting him out of the water, exhausted, help-
less, and almost speechless. The body of Mrs. Hughes
was discovered about eight o'clock on Tuesday morning,
out of the current of the river; her son was got out from
a deep pit in the river further down ; the. bodies were

Inquest ; the body of
The carriage and horse were dragged up also, the carriage
but little injured, and the horse still attached to the car-
riage. Mr. Hughes's daughter went to Bondleigh with
him in the morning, but was persuaded to Stop the night,
or probably, nay almost certainly, she would have met
with the same melancholy fate as her mother. The event
has spread a panic through the neighbourhood. Mr.
W. Wreford, of Clannaborough, was most active, by him-
self and people, in finding the bodies.
The accident happened about 7 o'clock. Mr. Hughes
was a Magistrate of the county.
A tremendously heavy rain having fallen on Monday
afternoon, a great part of Westexe was almost imme-
diately flooded, by the rushing down of waters from the
neighbouring hills ; and from the Catholic chapel to the
mills on the Exeter road, the streets, &c., for nearly a
mile, were from twelve to eighteen inches deep in water;
this, however, shortly subsided, but the river Loman
almost immediately began to rise, and by seven o'clock
in the evening had attained to a greater height than can
be recollected by the oldest person living. To give some
idea of this,
ing into Blundell's school green, flood boards were put
we may mention that at the iron gates lead-
up to the height of six feet three inches, over which,
however, the water poured in. The evening mail was
detained for about four hours, and considerable damage
has been done to bridges, roads, walls, &c , in the neigh-
bourhood. We hear that the bridges at Chattiscombe
and Swinebridge are washed away, that Mr. Lawson
has about 140 feet of walling destroyed, and that

most brilliant coteries, and was equally familiar with cir-
cles of much less pretension. In the last of his admirable
productions, just published, under the title of Fathers
and Sons," he had shown the excellent use to which he
could apply his imagination when directed upon a sub-
ject so familiar to him. The characters of the lively
tourist, Lady Cramly ; of the exceedingly attractive house-
keeper, Mrs. Smylar ; of the Chaperon, Lady Gramm,
ra
who knew every body that was anybody ; and of her com-
panion and toadee, the sentimental poetess, Miss Phee-

than the gallant and disagreeable Colonel Bruff, the
elderly young gentleman, Sir George Grindle ;his hope-
ful son, the Lady Killer, and the other worthies who play
their several parts in this clever and interesting story.
We can have no doubt that its popularity will be great,
as it is the best and most entertaining picture of the
manners of the day seen for many years.

The rest of the morning was occupied with the argu
Inents in this part-heard case.

ROLLS' COURT, Dec. 6.

ALLIN V. PA INE.
The Court was occupiedTON nearly the 'whole day with
this suit, which was instituted to recover the sum of 1501.
alleged to have been accidentally omitted in an account
that had been settled. It appeared from the evidence
that on the Ist of January, 1829, the defendant was in-
debted to a gentleman named Williamson in the sum of
I,OOOL, which was secured by mortgage, and that on the
same day Mr. Williamson advanced to the defendant a
further sum of 3001., for which on the 28th of May fol-
lowing the defendant executed a further charge on the
mortgaged estate for the sum of 350/. In the month of
September, defendant being desirous of a further ad-
vance of money, applied to Mr. Peppercorne, who was
the Solicitor both of himself and • Mr. Williamson, to
raise for him the sum of 2001, which Mr. Peppercorne
did ; the sum of GU, one portion of it, being pro-
cured from Mr, Williamson, and the remainder
from a friend of Mr, Peppereorne, and in the

Cross-examined--I am a bill-broker. I then lived at
Belgrave-street, Pimlico, and afterwards at 33, Conduit-
street. In Nov. 1840 I was in the Queen's Bench prison.
I have taken the benefit of the Act twice. I lived in
Dorset-place, Dorset-square in the beginning of Novem-
ber, 1840. I was a wine and cork-merchant iu Dublin
for some time. I was afterwards a wine commission
agent in Salisbury-street, Strand, and then in Arundel-
street, Strand, then Albany-street, Regent's Park,
King's Arms Yard, Coleman-street, City, and other places.
I took the benefit of the Insolvent Act in February 1832.
I was remanded for ten months for extravagance, and
living beyond my means,. but not for fraud. It was not
" for fraudulently making away with my property." I
once went by the name of Holbrook, there being two or
three executions out against me. I was part proprietor
of the Club-house, 2, Bury-street, St. James. I lived at
96, Quadrant; that was not a gaming-house. I lived at
Brettenham Ihll, Suffolk. The second time I took the
benefit of the Act, was in January last, and
I was then remanded for six months under
the discretionary clause ; there was no case
.Faade against me. I settled with my detaining creditor
in April.
My debts were 2,3001., and since April I have
paid off 1,1001. My debts on the first occasion were 700/.

tion tion with him for two or three months. I don't thlienal;
Lord Huntingtower knows where he is. When we dined
together on the 4th July, there was a nobleman, the son
of a Marquis, present.
William Read—l live in Duke-street, St. James's. I
know last witness and Capt. Byng. I met them on the
Monday Lord Huntingtower came of age, the 4th July.
I then saw the two blank bills with Lord Huntingtower's
acceptance ; and saw Mr. Coyle and Captain Byng the
day following or the day after, and then saw the present
bill in blank, with Lord Huntingtower 's acceptance.
The body of the bill is in my handwriting. I wrote it
either on the Monday or Tuesday (the sth or 6th July),
at Captain Byng's request, who then added his signature.
The day of the month Was left blank. I also filled up
another for 1,0001. at three months, which was accepted
in blank.
Cross-examined—There was a third person present on
the Sunday, a nobleman. I believe the date is left
blank till the day in which the bill is put in circulation,
the rate of discount being very high. I knew that Lord
Huntingtower was of age on the 4th of July. Captain
Byng was in the 15th Light Dragoons, and sold out
about two months ago. 1 do not know where he is new.
Mr. HOGGINS for the plaintiff said, the defence set up
on the present occasion was infancy, and infancy only,
and that by the law of the land deprived him of the

The RECORDER—Do not let all St. Giles's loose upon
us—do not go more into this than you can help.
Mr. Do.ANE—Did you not hear Lynch accuse the
prisoner, as one of the swell mob, with attempting to
pick his pocket ?
Witness—On my oath he did not. I never saw Lynch
struck. Jerry Bryant wanted to fight, and the Captain
said he would put the steam off if there was any fighting.
I have known the prisoner for two years.
Re-examined--I know Lynch ; he is in the same
line of business as the prosecutor ; he keeps a
coal-shed and chops wood—that is what he means
by being
a coal-merchant and a timber-merchant.
Mrs. Ifarrison was with last witness on the occasion in
question, and saw a person strike the prisoner. Knows
none of the parties. Landed at the Adelphi-pier. There
was a great rush to get ashore. Saw the prisoner pass
in the crowd ; they were all drunk. Two or three per-
sons were with him, Witness, Cousins, and Floyd went
up the steps together. Prisoner was about thirty yards
before them. Witness and his friends went away directly
a.s fast as they could. Saw the prisoner afterwards in
the Strand going towards Charing-cross, about 300
yards from the pier. That was a quarter of an hour
after the first time witness saw him. Witness had lost
sight of bun in the meantime.

" BR. 1 bale. [lnvoice marked in corner No. 16,
SS and in centre No. 19, both in red ink.]
No. 16 contained—
" Invoice of coarse linen, diaper and huckaback towels,
shipped by Street and Sharp in the Dawson, Captain
11--, for South Australia, a I a, and risk of Frederick
Boucher, of London, and consigned to order.—London.
" BH. 10-1 bale. [lnvoice marked in corner No.
SS 16, and in centre of invoice No. 28]."
" Mr. H—, who married a sister of Boucher, went from
this to Adelaide, and found his brother-in-law, Charles
Boucher, preparing to leave Adelaide. I believe no part
of the cargo was sold at Adelaide. The Dawson then
proceeded to Launceston, where the Dawson and her
cargo were sold. About the month of October or No-
vember, 1839, 11. went to Sydney, purchased a quantity
of stock, and chartered the China for this place ; and a
-valuable cargo of stock was landed in February, 1840,
and placed on the land which he purchased from me.
The land was only an assignment to me in occupation,
which required certain location duties to be performed
before the fee simple would be granted by the Governor.
These location duties have been performed by IL, and
he has applied for: the fee simple to be granted ill the
Joint names of F. Bouchere and J. 11. Tho Governor in
Council has sanctioned the fee simple being issued as ap-
plied for, but a delay has occurred in conse-
quence of H. wishing to include another portion
of land that.adjoins the property he purchased of me,
and upon which he had not completed his location
duties. Ik has now, however, fulfilled all the conditions
he is required to do, and he will obtain the fee simple
of this property whenever he applies for it ; but I sus-
pect the exposition which has been made of the fraudu-
lent transactions of the Bouchers in the newspapers of
Sydney and Adelaide and this colony, may induce H.
to take out the fee simple in his own name. The deed
of sale from me to H. was in the name of H. alone, but
he has frequently in conversation told me that it was a
joint-concern with his brother-in-law, and my impres-
sion is that he told me, when he came first, that the
Dawson and her cargo was a joint-concern ; and the
marks on the packages would seem to confirm this. H.
may endeavour to conceal the connection now, but his
letter of application for the fee simple in joint names
would prevent this, and the Governor, being now aware
of the nefarious transactions of the parties, will not
allow that letter to be withdrawn. H. has mentioned to
other parties besides myself that Boucher was connected
in the purchase of the property here ; and the goods

DARING OUTRAGE.—Yesterday forenoon In-
spector Fuller and several other officers of the N
mon, were proceeding to Hatton-garden Police Court with
their prisoners for examination, when, on their arrival
near the Islington turnpike-gate, they were surrounded
by nearly 200 low ruffians, who attacked them, and en-
deavoured to rescue the prisoners, named Sarah May,
alias King, James May, and Henry Wybrew, notorious
characters, who were in custody for stealing a leg of
pork. The officers were knocked down and severely
maltreated. Police constable Ching, who took the
above-named prisoners into custody, was beaten and
Melted until he lay apparently lifeless, and he was car-
ried from the spot for medical assistance, and
now remains in a dangerous state. A desperate
conflict took place between the police and the
parties who attempted the rescue, bat eventually the
constables succeeded in apprehending four desperate
fellows, well-known thieves, the ringleaders, and lodging
them in the station-house. In the course of the day
they were placed at the bar, before Mr. Combe, when
they gave their names Lorton, Lee, Sergeant, and May.
The officers and several respectable witnesses, identfiell
them, and a surgeon's certificate being produced pro-
nouncing Ching to be in danger, the prisoners were re-
manded for a week. The prisoners charged with the fe-
lony were subsequently placed at the bar, and they were
remanded until Wednesday next, it being suggested
by
Mr. Combo. that in so desperate a case the Commission-
ers of Police should prosecute, and that a solicitor should
attend to watch the proceedings. Inspector Miller
said he would communicate with the Commissioners OA
the subject.
