ithr; observation made by his Learned Friend in his
opening speech, that this was truly a criminal prote.eed-
ing, but he said he did not think a jury could be ione:d
who would or who ought to convict the defendan t *on
such evidence as that which had been adduced in..surport
of the charge against him. They were called -upon to
believe that the defendant, a clergyman, had not only
been guilty of the crime of adultery, but the,t corns
;ratted it with his own daughter, and that lie had not
only been guilty of an incestuous intercou' .se with her
after her marriage but also before it, area that he was
so reckless in the gratification of Ws guilty passion
that he had even continued the intercourse since
this action had been brought ageeust him. He should
contend that this charge was 'altOgether monstrous
and improbable, and that it was impossible for the
jury to believe that a seeing woman like Miss
Wetherell, should leave her husband, and yield
herself up to an incestnatts Intercourse with her father,
under such odious and profligate circumstances. It
might be said the.t the witnesses had sworn positively to
certain facts w'nich ',eft no doubt of the guilt of the par-
ties ; but he ward remind the jury that they were not
called upon, although witnesses might choose to swear
positively to them, to believe circumstances which must
be coosideeed revolting and impossible in the opinions
of any man of discretion and judgment. They would
re-sum-Aber that the question the jury now had to decide,
v. as not whether the defendant had been extravagant,
And had squandered away his daughter's fortune most
improperly, or whether there bad been more freedom
And affection exhibited by them than was usual between
father and dau;hter, but what they had to say by their
-verdict was, whether or not it was proved that there had
been a criminal and incestuous intercourse between them,
and whether that intercourse had been continued and
repeated time after time under circumstances of the
retest notorious profligacy, the daughter being a young
married woman, and the defendant an old man in holy
orders, and who was proved to have performed the sacred
duties that devolved upon him during the whole period
when this most odious connexion was alleged to have
existed. He said there ceuld be no doubt from the
evidence, that Mr. Cooke had run away with Miss
Wetherell, under the impression that he should receive
a fortune with her, and that he was bitterly disappointed
in this respect ; but the jury should recollect that Mr.
Wetherell was no party to tbis, for he had distinctly
refused his daughter's hand to Mr. Cooke. When, how-
ever, the marriage had taken place, he expressed a readi-
ness to dispose of all the property at Byfield and Eaton-
place, and to settle the proceeds upon his daughter, so
that it wa's clear that at this time he was anxious to do
all in his power to make reparation for the injustice he
had committed with regard to his daughter's
property. Mr. Cooke, it appeared, was not
satisfied with this, but had most improperly
taken possession of the property in the house in Eaton-
place, and refused to admit the defendant to his oan
house, and there was no doubt that from this time Mr.
Wetherell entertained a repugnance for him and desired
t.' keep him at arms length; and the jury must al7o f, el
that besides the circumstances to which he had alluded,
there must have been some other grave cause of com-
plaint of the conclucit of Mr. Co )ke. Cou'd they doubt
that he was living in adultery with the person whose
wine had been mentioned ? Lie did not mean to say
that this was any reason why he should not obtein a
verdict if he made out his case, but when they saw how
active an agent the woman who had lived with him had
been in getting up this case, and when they recollected
how she had tampered with the witnes,,es, he was sure
the jury would feel that the evidence was open to very
great suspicion. The woman he referred to most prob a-
bly was actuated by a strong desire to enable Mr.
Cooke to get a divorce, in the expectation, per-
haps, that she should, in that case, become Mr. Cooke's
wire, and she had taken every means in her power to
get up the case against the defendant. Notwithstand-
ing this, however, it appeared to him that the only wit-
ness in the case, whose evidence really affected the de-
fendant, was Emma Williams, who stat d that the
defendant and his daughter had slept in the same bed
t Chepstow. Now he did not mean to impute perjury
to this witness—he did not think he was justified in
doing so—but he did contend most confidently that she
was mistaken on that point. All the rest of her evi-
rlence might be perfectly true. The parties were at the
hotel—they did stay two nights, but as to their sleeping
in the same bed, there was no truth in it ; and she had
probably only made that statement in consequence of
the means that were taken to warp and bias her judg-
ment. The jury would not forget that she was speak-
ing to a circumstance that was represented to have
occurred ten years before. There did not appear to
have been any reason why she should take particular
notice of it, and. he would ask the jury, as men of. the
world, and men of common sense, whether it was likely
that she could recollect what she states so positively?
The jury would recollect what had occurred with re-
gard to the picture. If she really could identify Mr.
Wetherell, why was the picture left in the manner de-
scribed. At the first trial, too, the witness denied that
any picture had been shown to her. It was true that
in point of fact no person did actually show her the
picture, but it was left in the room for her to see, and
the jury would consider whether her explanation of that
contradiction was a satisfactory one. He should, how-
ever, show that this witness was incorrect in one or two
particulars, and should likewise show by positive
testimony, trlat she was completely mistaken
with regard to the rooms occupied by Mr.
Wetherell and his daughter. The learned Ser-
geant-then alluded to the circumstance of Mr. Cooke
having induced the witnesses to make an affidavit of the
truth of their original statements to him, and said that
this was an additional proof that the witnesses had not
been justly dealt with, and it showed there was no evi-
dence to pledge them to the statements they made,
whether iu Court or not. Did the jury doubt that Mr.
Cooke and Mrs. Baynton were the real attorneys in this
cause, and that the evidence had been got up at the
house in Seymour-place? His Learned Friend had stated
that, before the production of Eleanor Williams as a
witness; there had been a denial that Mr. Wetherell and
big daughter had ever been at the Beaufort Arms, but
this was not so.

Sergeant SHEE—Show me any part of the former
case where the fact wi:s admitted ?

Sergeant CHIN N ELL proceeded—He remembered per-
fectly well stating that it was very likely they did go
there in the course of their tour, and the report of his
speech that appeared at the time confirmed what he now
stated. The Learned Sergeant then proceeded to state
that he should produce evidence that Mr. Wetherell met
a highly respectable gentleman, Captain Hickman, in the
course of that tour, and that he introduced himself and
his daughter to him, and they afterwards were at the
Beaufort Arms together ; and he should satisfy the jury
by the clearest evidence, that Captain Hickman and
family occupied the suite of rooms, which were repre-
sented to have been occupied by the defendant, and
that the witness Williams was entirely mistaken in this
matter. With regard to the evidence of the servants,
as to the affection that appeared to exist between the
defendant and his daughter, he submitted that it
merely proved innocent fatherly affection, exhibited
perhaps with a little more warmth than was
usual with persons standing in that relation-
ship to each other, hut still offering no proof
of the commission of such an awful crime as
that imputed to the defendant. The Learned Ser-
geant then commcutcd upon a part of the case which
cannot be more particularly alluded to, and said it was
monstrous to suppose that if the tour in August was
taken for the purpose which was attempted to be esta-
blished on the part of the plaintiff, that the guilty par-
ties would have brought back with them such conclusive
evidence of their guilt. A number of witnesses had been
called to depose to conversations, and other matters, re-
presented to have taken place between them and the de-
fendant and his daughter, and the jury would see that he
was entirely in th© power of those persons, for they
placed the occurrence when no person else was by,
and neither Mr. Wetherell nor his daughter could
be called to contradict them. As to the evi-
dence given by the servants, did the jury be-
lieve that if they really did see the abominable conduct
they described, and were satisfied that the communication
existed between the father and the daughter, they would
have remained in the house, and been witnesses of it?
And he would ask them whether it was not much more
likely that they had put incorrect construc'ions upon
most innocent faruiliarities? Was it proper to place reli-
ance upon the testimony of the lady's maid, who repre-
sented circumstances tending to show that a criminal
connexion had taken place between the father and the
daughter before the marriage, and yet she was the con-
fidante and active agent in procuring the marriage with
Mr. Cooke. As to the name of Mills being announced,
was it not perfectly clear that this was dune to avoid
being accused ? but to clear up all ground of suspi-
cion on this point, he should show that Mr.
Wetherell and his daughter traveled as father and
daughter all through that, tour ; that that aas the rela-
tionship always represented to exist between them, and
this being the case, it was idle to suppose that they in-
tended to gratify any unnatural passion for each other.
The Learned Counsel in the course of his address com-
mented upon a variety of other facts in the can:. which can-
not be more directly alluded to, and concluded a very
.able and eloquent speech by expressing a confident opi.
mon that when the jury had heard the 4vi,.lence he should
lay before them, they would be perfectly satisfied that
this foul charge was net made out against the defendant,
and that they would return a verdict in his favour.
The following evidence was then adduced for the de-
fendant:—

The trial then proceeded for some time, when the
Learned Judge again interposed. He thought it right
to put it to the jury whether they had any doubts as to
the defendant having consented to act as a provisional
committeeman bets( re giving his written consent on the
15th November.

The jury, after a brief consultation, said they were
not satisfied that the defendant had agreed to act 113 a
provisional committeeman before the 15th November.
His. Lordship said there was then an end to the case,
and the jury. without hesitation, returned a verdict for
the defendant.

NORTHERN ClRGUlT.—Carlisle, Aug. 6.

CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.)
William Thornburn, aged about 30, and apparently a poor
man, was indicted for bigamy, committed at Gretna, on the
Bth of November, 1845, by marrying Jane Jackson.
Jane Little, the wife of Thomas Little, of Springfield, who
was a blacksmith, and performed the ceremony of marriage,
proved that she keeps a register of the marriages performed,
and on the 6th of February; 1846, William Thornburn and
Ann Sparks came to their house and said they were come to
be married. Her husband asked them if they came of their
own free will. They answered that they did. He then
asked them if no person had a claim upon them, and they
said no one had. He then asked the bridegroom if he was
willing to take that woman for his lawful wife. He said he
was. He asked the bride if she was willing to take that man
for her lawful husband, and she said she would. He bid
them join hands and declare each other man and wife. They
joined hands and declared themselves man and wife in those
words. She remembered them coming quite well. The
prisoner was the man; she had no doubt of it.

Cross-examined—gr. Linton, of Gretna-hall, and Simon
Long, a weaver, also married people. They were sober at
the time. She saw nothing but what was sober and decent.
No doubt there was some fee paid, but she could not re-
member what. That was the way in which the ceremony
was always performed by her husband, according to the law
of Scotland.

Re-examined—She saw the same woman before the ma-
gistrate on this charge being inquired into.
Thomas Little the man who performed the ceremony, was
called, and corroborated his wife. On being asked to state
what took place, be said, " they had a manner of their own
they worked with." There was not much whisky; there
might be a noggin or a pint. They might have a glass
before the ceremony. He said he had repeated all that had
passed, and he'd repeated nae mair. They said they were
quite content and happy to be man and wife. They did not
agree and they parted. He could not keep them together.
He could marry them, but he could nae gar them live to-
gether. He said to them "You are man and wife for ever,
before the witnesses here."

Mary Sparks, the sister of Ann, said the prisoner and her
sister left her father's to be married, and returned the day
following, when the prisoner said they were married, and
that they lived together six months as man and wife, and
then left that part. Some time after her sister returned
(having been recently confined) without the prisoner, whom
she saw no more till in custody. Ile said they had been
married by Little of Gretna.

Jane Ja'clion, a poor servant g;rl, twenty-two years of age
of Carden-mill, said she was married to the prisoner at Sark
toll-bar, in Scotland, by John Murray. He asked if they
were two single persons. They each said they were. He
told them to take hold of hands, and they did so. (Nothing
more could be got out of this witness as to the ceremony.)
They had gone from her sister's at Carlisle to get married,
and returned there. They lived together six months as man
and wife. She bad nothing but her half-year's rages when
they were married. The prisoner left her at the Whitsun-
tide hiring. Ile told her he was going to hire. She also
is now hired. He swore on his oath both to her and her
mother that she was married to him—that he never was
married to womankind. She (lid not wish to punish him,
but just to be clear of him. She was quite willing to part
from him.

John Murray, of Sark toll-bar, said the prisoner and a
woman came to be married on the Sth November, 1545. He
gave his name William Thornburn, and the woman that of
Jane Jackson. His. brother and two other men were pre-
sent. They said they wished to get married, and witness
answered they could if all was right. He then entered their
names, &c., in a book, and told them to stand up, and then
asked them if they were single persons. They said they
were. Witness bid them join hands, and he asked the man
" if he took that women to live together for better and for
worse, so long as they were spared, before God and those wit-
nesses." He said he did. Witness then asked the woman
the same, and she answered "Yes." Prisoner then put the
ring on her finger, and witness said, " they had declared them-
selves before God and those witnesses man and wife;" and
they said " they had." Then they and the witnesses signed
the register-book. Prisoner said he could not write, and he
made his mark.

Mr. TEMPLE then rose to address the jury for the pri-
soners, and, after a powerful opening, proceeded to examine
the evidence that had been detailed. He commenced by
adverting to the respectability of the prisoners' circum-
stances as furnishing the first reason why they should not
commit such an offence as that; to the fact of arsenic being
purchased, if it were purchased at all, without the slightest
cancealtnent ; to the real name and address of the male pri-
soner being given, and witnesses in each case present; to the
circumstances of.the female prisoner having taken the child to
the surgeon on the first appearance of illness, and having
drawn his attention to those very symptoms which it was
allezed on behalf of the prosecution were indicative of the
administration of poison ; to the testimony that these
symptoms had been increased after the child had taken the
medicine recommended by the surgeon, and which appeared,
in consequence of some peculiarity of constitution, to have
operated the very reverse of that for which it was intended ;
to the fact of their neighbours having been sent for on the
day of the child's death, and only in consequence of their
remonstrances was the male prisoner induced not to send for
the surgeon again immediately before its decease; to the fact
that 5/., the sum obtained from the burial society, would be
barely sufficient to cover the expenses of interment, while in-
cidental evidence had been given of the death of another
child, where the sum of 11. ss. was all the money that could
be obtained from the club; to the uncertainty that must al-
ways arise is casea. like this, where the case is a great mea-
sure must depend upon the deductions of scientific analysis;
and to the probability (taking all the circumstances of the
case into account) that the poison, if it really had been
taken, was taken by the child, who was nearly five years of
age, by a mistake of its own. These points the Learned
Counsel illustrated with great force.
Several witnesses were called, who gave the prisoners
good characters for kindness and humanity.
The JUDGE summed up with much ability.
The jury retired for a short time, and on their return found
a verdict of Not Guilty for both prisoners.
The other charge of murder was then abandoned, and the
third charge was proceeded with. It occupied the Court
until ten o'clock in the evening, terminated in a verdict of
Not Guilty, and completed the business of the circuit,

BRISTOL COURT OF BANK-
RUPTCY.
(Before Commissioner Mr. Sergeant STEVENSON.)

RE WILLIAM HENRY SMITH, OF SWANSEA, PRINTER.
This bankrupt, who is a barrister on the South Wales
circuit, but against whom a fiat had issued as printer and
proprietor of the Swansea Journal, was brought up in
custody of a tipstaff of the Court of Queen's Bench to
undergo his last examination. Mr. Phinn, of London,
appeared to oppose his passing for Sir James Williams,
cooper, and Co., Messrs. Spalding and Hodge, Mr.
Moggridge, and Messrs. Tanner Brothers. Mr. Stone
appeared for the bankrupt. The liabilities were stated
at near 30,0001.
The examination was lengthened, and involved many
questions of account which could not be under stood but
upon reference to his balance-sheet.

'lt appeared, from his answers, that some years since
the bankrupt projected the Swansea water-works, of
which undertaking he acted as architect, engineer, sec-
retary, director, and everything else up to the passing of
the Act of Parliament, after which time he had associ-
ated with him sixty-five bonci fide shareholders. He called
them bond fide, because they took their shares f a• better
for worse. They were before the. Act nominal share-
holders, who subscribed upon the faith of his representa-
tions, and whom he felt bound in honour to bear harm-
less. He said he calculated that he had expended in the
works near 80,0001. in cash, and, with liabilities, his loss
had been 45,0001. Hs had not been possessed of large
capital himself, and excepting about 6,000/., he had raised
the money. His present interest in the works was the
equity of redemption of one moiety, which he had mort-
gaged. The charges upon it amounted to about 12,5001.,
which bore interest at 5 per cent. He was not pressed
upon for the interest, which, as it fell due, was added to

evidence. ' -
Mr. Alderman Ginns, after asking the prisoner to
state how he b,,came possessed of the notes, said he had
gone over the whole of the case, and he was bound to
say there did not appf ar sufficient wei4,ht: in it to justify
him in sending the prisoner for trial. "I shall, there-
fore, continued the Aldernian, " discharge him from
custody."
A cheer arose in the Court when the decision was
known, which was immediately suppressed, and the pri-
soner, after ~haking hands with Forrester, and thanking
him for his kindness whilst in custody, left the office.
The justice-room was crowded during the examination.
THAMES.
On Saturday two labourers in the London Dock,
named William Reed and Thomas Cundick. were charged
before Mr. Ballantine with being participators in an
ingenious 83 stem of plunder by means of f ,rged orders,
with a man named Whitford, who was committed for
trial from thi: court on Thursday week.
Mr. Humphreys, who appeared to prosecute for the
Dock Company, as on the last oceasion, said that rob-
beries to a great extent, though in the individual in-
stances not to a large amount, ha! been going on at the
London Docks for sometime past, and it was the determi-
nation of the Company to spare no pains for the conviction
of the depredators. The goods abstracted consisted
principally of what are called gummy bags and old rope,
used in the manufacture of coarse paper, and the frauds
were effected by means of forged orders in the following
manner:—The gummy bags were made up into bales, so
as to resemble cotton pickings, and orders purporting to
come from the parties to whom the cottons were assigned
being forwarded to the proper authorities, passes were
signed, by which means the bales were allowed to pass
out at the gate. some purchaser having previously been
procured, to whom they were instantly transmitted.
At the request of Mr. Humphreys, who said he should
have some trouble in collecting and arranging the evi-
dence, the case was adjourned until Fri lay next.
SOUTH TVARK.

On Saturday, just as Mr. Cottinghatn was about to
quit the bench, Mr. Thomas Cooper. a tall, fashionably-
dressed gentleman, with large moustacbioF, was placed
at the bar, charged with assaulting an Italian lad, named
Antonio Sylon, also with destroying a quantity of plaster
of Paris which the lad was carrying.
Complainant, in broken English, said that he was
crossing Webber-street, Blacicfriars-road, about two
o'clock that. afternoon, with two bags of plaster of Paris
on his shoulders. Just as he had reached the corner
near the coffee-house, he was knocked clown, and all the
plaster of Paris was stresed over the ground. While
he was lying down he was again struck by the defendant,
Mr. Martin, a tradesman residing in the neighbour-
hood, said, that he witnessed the whole transaction.
He considered that the poor foreigner had been cruelly
ill-treated. He positively swore that the defendant struck
the lad several times, after which he went with his
friends into a public•house in Webber-street, called the
Coburg Arms, when the defendant offered the lad 10s.
compensation. He (witness), however, advised him not
to receive it, but give the defendant into custody.
Police-constable 100 L division, said, that when he
arrived the poor lad was crying. All his plaster was
completely destroyed.
Mr. CoTTlNonaar, to the defendant—l perceive, sir,
that you arc an artist of some ce!ebrity. Pray, what
answer have you to make to the charge ? DL?:endar, t
I are an artist belonging ti the Royal Academy, and had
been drinking with a few friends, when the complainant
intercepted me while crossing the road. I had no inten-
tion of hurting the lad, and merely pushed him down for
a lark. Ho had offered him compensation, and would
now pay anything in reason for the mischief he had
done.

the principal charge. He WAS entitled to redeem the
property till 1851. The last year's entire income from
the works was 1,1001., out of which there were 2001.
expenses.

THE " POET'S COMPLAIN T."-A one eyed elderly
son of Apollo, with a remarkably wide mouth, who de-
scribes himself as Michael Rough, schoolmaster, poet,
and martyr, of Maryleboue," ascended the rostrum with
great deliberation, placed a heap of papers on the desk
before him, saddled his nose with a pair of spectacles,
and then proceeded to call the attention of the bench to
his case, which, he said, included the offences of " con-
,p:racy, persecution, and attempt to murder himself and
Mrs. Rough."
Mr. Itannwicx, the sitting magistrate, told him to
go on.
The complainant selected a closely-written sheet of
foolicap from his bundle, and in a sonorous and mellifluous
:Milesian brogue pr, ceeded to read with a sort of running
comment. " ()n Monday morning, at rix P.m., being
sick and wake, I get up to help me wife in the big wash.
Ah, yer wurtchip, it would do your heart good to see
me wife at the tub. At nine precisely (looking at the
paper) ; no, at ten minutes past, I hung out the clothes
on the Is :ds, when Mrs. Morley. me landlady, wid the
voice of a Stentor, flourished a hammer and swore she
would have 'em all down. ' Grant me loan of five
minutes,' says and I'll have the clothes in.' She said
she would not stay, and the row she made brought all the
neighbours about; but if there had been a hundred, I
could have satisfied them wid the truth of me eloquence
and the innocence of me cause."

Mr. HARDWICK—GA on with your complaint.
Complainant—Seeing the slaughter of me wife and
meself about to begin, I called out, "Oh gintlemen, I'm
,ick; I'm under the doctor's hand." Wake, fable, and
faint as I was, I knocked down a black man of gigantic
proportions, and me wife got none the worst of the
scri rnmage.
Mr. IlanDwicx--,Let me know what the woman has
done to you.
Complainant—She conspires against me, and she per-
secutes me all she can. The attacka on me wife will
shorten me life, and filase ter wurtehip, they goes brag-
ging about that Rough arid his wife can't get justice from
the magistrate.
The defendant said she ought to make the complaint.
Two ,more troublesome lodgers than Rough and his wife
no landlady was ever before troubled with. The leads
were a taboo.) spot to the lodgers, They had no right
to hangout wet clothes there, and it was while protest-
ing against this breach of her domestic laws, that Mrs.
Rough had nearly pitched her forty feet down the
str, et.

Complainant—Me karaeter will bear inspection. I've
letters from the Duke of Wellington and a hundred of
the nobility and gentry. I only wiA anybody was here
that knows me, to spake to me karacter.
Horsford, the Mendicity Society's officer, who hap-
pened to be in Court, very much to the annoyance of the
complainant, volunteered his services.
Mr. HAttpwtcx—Do you know anything of this
man ?

Horsfbrd—l've known him for years as a begging
letter writer. He's a regular impostor.
Complainant (bristling up)—An impostor ! What.
spake that way of a schoolmaster—spike of Michael
Rough, the poet, that way ! Spire of me that way,who
has written seventeen reams of ,manuscript about national
inventions and saving life and property from fire, ship-
wreck, and lightning, by moral manes—me, Mike Rough,
that has written no end of poetry—here, your wurtchip
(pulling out a well-thumbed pamphlet), redo you my
last new poem.
Mr. l-lannwrcx—NO, thank you.
Complainant—l'll bind Horsford down to what he
says. He's at the head of a conspiracy against me.
Mr. HARDWICK declined to hear anything further.
The landlady wanted to get rid of her lodger, and the
lodgers said they wanted to leave. The best way to end
their dispute was by parting, and this he should recom-
mend to take place fortwith.
The complainant pocketed his papers, leaving his
poem for the perusal of the magistrate. It was entitled
" Eddystone • Lighthouse ; a moral poem, by Michael
Rough, late schoolmaster of Caliir," and it appeared to Le,
a curiosity of its kind. A preliminary note informed
the reader that " to relish the beauties of the poem,
the reader should be at the top of Eddystone Light-
house in a hurricane," commencing with this windy in-
vocation—

Miss George, who keeps the Beaufort Arms, Chepstow,
proved the position of the two rooms, Nos. 13 and 17, in
which the defendant and his daughter slept whilst at
the hotel, and that two beds were charged for in her bill.
Captain 11ickman deposed to having met with Mr.
Wetherell and hisdaughter while on a tour up the Wye,
and that he had slept at the Beaufort Arms on the same
night with the defendant and hisdaughter, who occupied
separate rooms, lie saw nothing in their conduct whi.:4l
was in the lea.A improper.
Mr. Dsakens. the land!ord of the Feathers note!,
Ledbury, proved that Mr. and Miss Wetherell stayed at '
house as Mr. and Miss Mills, aed that he called her
his d.tughter, and she called him her papa.
Mrs. Bradshaw, the dressmaker tor Miss Wetherell
wa3 then called to contradict the evidence of the witness
Fussell, relative to her having received directions to alter
some of Miss Wetherell's dresses about the period when
the miscarriage was supposed to have taken place.
This closed the ease for the defendant.
The Learned JUDGE summed up, and at nine o'clock
the jury retired. Shortly before eleven they expressed
a desire to see his Lordship, and they were accordingly
escorted to his lodgings. The jury then said there was
not the least chance of their agreeing to a verdict, and
begged that they r&ght be discharged.
CnAMBERS ob;ected to this course en the ground
of ;he immense expense it would be to the parties. The
jury eventually retired to a private room, where they
deliberated for nearly an hoar, when they again desired
to see his Lordship, and then repeated the statement I
that there was no chance of their agreeing; and it was
eventually twanged, After wino conversation, tuid with

The greatest commiseration is expressed for the prisoner's
mother, who is a very respectable woman. She had two
children only. the pris,.ner and a daughter; the latter, who
was a very fine young woman, poisoned herself a few years
since. Cave's age is about 46, that of his victim 40.

Mr. COTTINGHAM said he was surprised to see such a
gentleman in so disgraceful a situation. He did not,
after hearing all the evidence, think he intended to in-
jure the lad, therefore he should allow him to retire with
the complainant, and settle the matter without his in-
terference.
The parties then withdrew, and in a few minutes after-
wards the complainant entered the Court; and said he
was perfectly satisfied with the gentleman's generosity.
The defendant was accordingly discharged from cus-
tody.

Eliza Bazves, a showily-dressed young woman, was
brought up in custody by Sergeant Pocock, F division,
before Mr. Socket., charged with stealing 1501 from
Captain Wylie, of No. 52, Stamford-street, Black-
friars-road.
The complainant stated that he recently returned
from abroad, and being desirous of settling in this
country, he purchased the lease of a house in Stamford-
street, in which he intended to take up his residence,
abon take
t chargetnree
ani for this purpose furnished it throughout. Being a
o f bachelor,th
edomestic
h he requiredd utipas roefsptehcetabhloeufseen:le an dto
about
months ago he met with the prisoner, who was strongly
recommended as a person well qualified to per erm the
duties of housekeeper, and he engaged her accordingly.
Ile hail no fault to find against her conduct up to last
Thursday, on the afternoon of which day he had
occasion to leave home, and in his hurry forgot
his bunch of keys, leaving them in the lock of a
chest which he kept under his bedstead in the
back parlour, and in which was a cigar case containing
a 100/. Bank of. England note, besides loose cash to
the amount of 50/. more. When he returned home in
about two hours afterwards- he was informed by the
housemaid that the prisoner had left the house in a cab
about an hour previously, saying she had business in
the City, and that she should return in time for tea.
Upon being made acquainted with the above circum-
stance, he proceeded to his- bed-chamber, found the
chest already mentioned open, the key being left in the
lock, and on examination discovered that the 1001 Bank
of England note, together with all the loose cash, were
taken, but none of the other property the chest con-
tained was touched. Suspicion was at once excited
against the prisoner, who was known to have been in
his chamber up to the moment she left the house in the
afternoon in question, and those suspicions were
strengthened from the fact of her not returning home
at the time she mentioned. The captain added that he
did not know the number of the 1001. Bank of England
note, that he had only received it a few days previously
from Mr. Bowen, his broker, of Bink-chambers, who,
by his directions, had sold out 4001. in the Three
..per
Cent. Stock, and who would probably .be enabler! to
piocure him the number, as it was from hap he received
it. He added that he did not want to punish the young
woman if she made a disclosure of her crime, and re-
signed possession of the money left; that he had since
ascertained she had proceeded on a country excursion on
quitting his house; but that she returned to town, and
had taken up her abode at a house of an improper de-
scription, in the vicinity of the theatres.
The prisoner, who held her handkerchief up to her
face, and was weeping during the time occupied by the
captain in making the charge, now exclaimed that she
wasinnocent of the offence ; that the captain, by his
persuasions end vneises to rittrry her, i,lll!cpri her
to b,ethuie an inmate ci ill 6 house ; fnt3, on :idlingl :idling
his intentions were not likely to be fulfilled, she quitted
the house abruptly, she confessed, but the very night
before he told her to go, and said be should give her 144

Cross-examined—Witness is a mason by trade. He per-
forms a great number of marriages. At Whitsuntide (when
this took place) he did not know how many; something less
than half-a-hundred in a day.
Mary Jackson examined—She and her husband, and the
prisoner and Jane, were married at the same time; they went
together for that purpose.
Wm. Carruthers examined—He is a writer in Scotland,
which corresponds to an attorney in England. The ceremony
described by the witnesses, he said, constituted a valid legal
marriage in Scotland.
Cross-examined—The parties ought to be in proper posses-
sion of their faculties.

The bankrupt was next asked whether he had not
paid commissions to the high-sheriff or under-shrriff of
a county, which was named, in consideration of their for-
bearing from arresting him ? He positively denied that
such was the case, but admitted that upon one occa,ion
he paid 5/. to a sheriff's officer for that purpose. He had
never paid anything to the under-sheriff beyond sums
borrowed from him, or liabilities incurred on his (bank-
rupt's) account. Nothing beyond what he was bound in
law_and honour to pay.

He was next interrogated as to alleged frequenting of
certain " hells " or gaming houses at the west-end
of London. He said he had not gamed to any ex-
tent for twenty-five years, and for the last eighteen
months ho had not played at all. He admitted
that out of the last-named term he had been in
custody for twelve months, and also that within the
last four or five years he had been two or three
times at a hell in St. James's-street, with friends
from his club. He played two or three times, but
only for small sums. Was a member of the Wyndham
Club. Had been once at a house in Albemarle-street.
Did not lose a shilling there. Blight have won 201. or
251. Had also bees once or twice at a house in Jermyn-
street. Believed that his losses or gains within the last
four or five years would list exceed, either way, 1001.;
they might amount to 2001., but he thought not more
than 100/. Believed that all these transactions were
before his trading. Had not brought them into his
account.

OA`

His Lordship summed up, and the jury immediately re-
turned a verdict of Guilty.

Sentence deferred.
William Webb, aged 46, was indicted for burglary, com-
mitted at Carlisle on the 28th July last, in the house of
Christ. Bulman, the Grey Goat Inn, by breaking a door, he
being then in the house, having been before convicted of
felony.
Christ. Bulman, the prosecutor, said the prisoner came to
his house on Saturday, the 23th of July, and asked for ac-
commodation, which was granted. Ile stayed till Monday
night. On that night he went to bed at ten o'clock, and
witness and his family went to bed at eleven. A little after
two o'clock his wife awoke him. He listened, and heard a
noise, as of an attempt to open a lock. He got up and
went two or three steps down stairs, and then saw a
light in the passage. He had made a creaking noise in
moving, and the light was put out immediately. Witness
asked who was there, but received no answer. He then
asked his wife for a light and she brought one, and he went
down stairs and saw the prisoner s'anding in the passage,
near the bar-door. Witnesa asked him what he did there?
He said he wanted a convenience. Witness asked him why
he did not answer when he called out? The prisoner an-
swered that he could not. Witness then asked why he put
out the light, bat he made no answer. Witness "told him
something was not right, and he went dawn stairs, and
looking where the prisoner had been standing, he found two
screwdrivers, some skeleton keys, a piece of wax candle,
sonic. Inciter matches, and a hag containing other skeleton
keys. He called in the police, and then searched all over
the, house to see if any stranger was about the house, but
they found no one. The bar-door WAS open. On turning
over a mat there they found more matches, and there were
marks on the money-drawer in the bar, which showed an
attempt had been made to force it open. Before it there
were drops of wax as from a candle, and also outside the
bar-door.

SANATORY CONDITION OF TILE METROPOLIS.-7
On Thursday a meeting of several
gentlemen was held at the
London Tavern, for the purpose of adopting measures in. re-
ference to the recent reaport of the appearance of Asiatic
cholera in the metropolis, and also for the purpose of re-
ceiving the reply of the Lord Mayor to the deputation
which had been appointed at a previous meeting. The Rev.
W. Harriss was called to the chair. From the statements
made, it appeared that the Lord Mayor expres,ed it AS MS
opinion, that no symptoms of cholera had manifestedtieht:hpterhem.

them-
selves, and that in the course of the interview, Mr. Alderman
Gibbs, who was in compony with his Lordship,
understood that a complaint, known as Plumb said
C oi
veiled to a very great extent. It furtEer transpired that in
the course of the interview Mr. C. Cochrane recommended
an alteration in the system of street cleansing, and some
other like reforms ; that the Lord May or expressed it as his
opinion that the Commissioners of Sewers could not adopt
a system more perfect than the one at present pursued.

resolution to the effect that a permanent committee be ap-
pointed to watch over the sanatory condition of the metro-
polis, with a view to its amelioration, and that clergymen,
medical gentlemen, &c
be requested to co-operate with the
committee, and that the authorised medical officers be in-
vited to afford their aid likewise, and that such gentlemen,
public bodies, &c , as are anxious likewise to co-operate with
the committee, be requested to forward their names to the
honorary secretary.
ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON AND HASTINGS BAIL-
WAY.—On Wednesday afternoon, as the two o'clock train
from Brighton to Hastings was on its way, and when about
a mile from the Polegate station (the line being at that part
in a cutting), the engine and tender ran off the rails, drawing
after them a third and first-class carriage. The passengers
were greatly alarmed, but, fortunately, no one was seriously
injured. Mr. Clement, of Hastings, sustained a slight con-
tusion on the mouth, and a porter of the company had his
knee slightly hurt, but beyond this no one was injured. Tie
train was detained two hours before the engine and carriages
could be again placed on the link: It then proceeded to its
destination. With tidy exception the traffic was not inter-
rupted. The accident was caused by the sinking of the line
at that spot, in consequence of the late rains. This ha., since
been repaired.

Mr. Phinn addressed his honour at considerable
length, in opposition to the bankrupt's passing, contend-
ing that his accounts were unsatis'actory in many par-
ticulars, and that they were not carried back far enough.
The bankrupt had, after a long series of transactions,
incurring liabilities to an immense amount, commenced
a trading; and then he attempted to get released from
all his debts, only furnishing accounts of his trading.
If this were allowed, it would be impossible, by any
extent of vigilance on the part of the assignee, to guard
the interests of the creditors, as, for all which the
assignees could know, he might have in his pocket all
the proceeds of his earlier large transactions.
Mr. Stone, in reply to this, said the bankrupt had
given the best account he could. If there were any par-
ticular points which required further elucidation, the
bankrupt was present and could be examined ; or, as had
been done in former cases, the Court could pass his ex-
amination, and require him, before he came up for his
certificate, to furnish some explanatory accounts. Mr.
Stone contended thas the opposition had been in tigated
by the opposing creditor, Mr. Williams A. Wearing, and
it was intended to keep the bankrupt in prison, where
be had already been for a wh,le. der. As to the bank-
rupt giA.ting up oi-der to a. 1:1V t.',l 4ga:ion,
he begged to remind his Honour that Mr. Snitch first
petitioned as an insolvent, a course which would always '
have left his property liable for his debts. It was how-
