Putney. It appeared that the railway company had con-
tracted to purchase certain property, part of which was
attached to the plaintiff's mansion at Putney. The ab•
street of title had been th:lirered, but the conveyance of
the land had not been executed, and the purchase-money
had not been paid.
The Vice- Chancello- granted the injunction to reWain
the railway company from taking possession of the land

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, March 27.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Govi.mt,nx.)
IN RE METCALFE.
This bankrupt, who had carried on business ac a builder,
came up to pass his last examination.
The report of the official assignee showed that, in the year
1844, the bankrupt compounded with some of his creditors,
leaving debts to the amount of 480/., since which time he
hat incurred additional debts to nearly 1,0001. He had not
kept regular books, and all the creditors had to furnish their
own accounts. He had kept a list of debtors, but only one

The COURT observed that this was a very extraordinary
positionfor so old a man to assume; but they did not see any
great harm in it.

The constable, in continuation, said, " Before we could get
up to the spot, your Worship. the trousers gave way, and
he fell inwards amongst the laylock bushes."
" Did lie do ally harm )here?" asked the examining ma-
gistrate. " No, your. Worship," replied the constable; "be
lay as quiet as a mouse."
The old man was asked what account he could give for
this strange conduct ?—He replied that, on the previous
afternoon, he had gone down to Greenwich, to see a grandson
on board the Marine Society's ship, and, in returning be got
very wet with the rain and very weary with the walk ; and,
being thus wet and weary, he ✓lost his way and his wits to•
gether, he,believed, for, though he only dank one penny glass
of porter on his way home, he had no sort of recollection
how he managed to get on the palisades in Bloomsbury-
square. All he knew about it was, that instead of-being-in
Bloomsbury-square at three o'clock in the morning, he ought
to have been at Camberwell before nine o'clock on the pre-
ceding night.
He was told he might go home as soon as he pleased, and
he very thankfully departed. He said be was bred and born
a tailor, but that was many years ago.
WORSHIP S 7 REET.

Mr. HENRY further remanded the prisoner for a week,
and directed that Mr. Richards, the proprietor of Marl-
borough-house, and his clerk, be summoned to attend the
next examination.

THE FRENCH IN' CHINA.—The Journal des Debate
publishes letters from Macao of the 29th of December. The
French mission to China had returned to Macao on the sth
of December, after having visited the four northern ports.
The Alcmene was to have-sailed on the sth of January from
Macao to bring back the commercial delegates to France.
All the persons attached to' the mission were to have em-
barked on board the frigate Archimede on the Bth or 10th
of January, to sail from Calcutta, and they are expected
to arrive at Suez in the commencement of the month of
April, and consequently they may reach Paris in about five
weeks.

NYfli good.
The Com3tS6noNrn desired the bankrupt to be sworn.
The bankrupt declined, on conscientious scruples, as he
al!e4;ed.
The CoMMISCONEK then ordered him to make the declara-
tion under Lord Denman's Act, and warned him, that if he
epoke falsely, he was liable to ba indicted for perjury.
The bankrupt's examination did not clear up the mystifica-
tion of the accounts.
The Coatmestozirnt said he should adjourn the examina-
tion sine die, for the accounts had been wilfully made out,
talsply ; and directed a minute to that effect to be entered on
the proc.zedings.

SECONDARIES COURT, March 27.
(Before Mr. Secondary Jams:l4.)
LOWRY V. .116KENZEE.
This was an action brought to recover the sum of 61. ISs.,
for wine and spirits sold to defendant, who is a gentleman,
residing in Suffolk-place,
The defendant pleaded the general issue. The only point
in the case was whether defendant was indebted to plaintiff,
or a person named L'yer, who was his traveller.
It appeared that Dyer kept an ale and stout store, in
Duke-street, St. James's, and supplied the defendant ; but
be was not licensed to sell wines,. although the defendant
ordered them of him. Dyer, it appeared, handed over the
order to the plaintiff; who sent it in, with an invoice made
out, to the defendant.
The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff:
This was the only case set down for hearing.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Lirtrpool, March 25.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice PArrEsoN.)
Henry Harrison was indicted, charged with having, at
Denton, feloniously and violently assaulted and beaten
Sidney Taylor, and stolen from his person one sovereign
and half-a- crown.

Mr. Monk appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. A. B. Pol-
lock for the defence. _

It appeared that the prosecutor had been drinking at
various public-houses on the 23d February with several per-
sons, and amongst others with the prisoner, to whom he in-
cautiously displayed some money from his waistcoat pocket
He was followed, tripped up, and knocked down by prisoner.
When he had done this be commenced kicking the unfortu-
nate man upon his head with a heavy boot he wore, inflicted
a very serious wound on the left side of his forehead (which
bled profusely), and knocked out a large double tooth ; not
content with this, the prisoner gathered a quantity of loose
mud together, and forced it into his victim's niouth, with the
intention and in the hope of choking him at once. This ren-
dered him insensible, and while he remained so the prisoner
rifled his waistcoat pockets and robbed him of 1/. 2s. Sd.,
with which he immediately decamped.
Mr. POLLOCK addressed the jury for the defence.
His LORDSHIP summed up, and the jury having retired to
consider their verdict, returned in about half an hour, finding
the prisoner Guilty.

NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Norwich, March 25.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice MAuux.)
Charles Hood, aged 34, was charged with having wilfully
and maliciously thrown a quantity of aquafortis on the right
foot of Sophia Frakes, with intent, &c.

Mr. Evans appeared for the prosecutrix.
The prosecutrix is a young factory girl, aged 15; theyri-
soner is ajeurneyman miller, and both reside at Ditching-
ham. The defendant had made dishonourable proposals to
the prosecutrix in the course of lut summer; she resented
the insult, and expressed her determination to make it
known to her mother. About the middle of last August the
prisoner met the prosecutrix walking with a friend, when he
" spurned " (kicked) her in a brutal manner, and used the
most disgusting and threatening language. On the 23d of
that month the prisoner bought two drachms of aquafortis
from a chemist at Bungay; who warned him of its properties,
to which he replied, " Oh, I know its use very well," and
went away. On the following day he met the prosecatrix
walking with her sister, who reproached him for his designs
on the virtue of the prosecutrix, and said," It is a shame for
any old man like you to interfere with such a young girl as
Sophy." Immediately afterwards she observed him throw
something at the foot of the prosecutrix, who at the same
time felt a blow on her right foot, and a burning and smart-
ing sensation. The prisoner said, "That's what I meant to
do to you," and went away. The prosecutrix went home,
and taking off her stocking found the right foot and ankle
covered with blisters, under which wounds nearly half an
inch deep were subsequently discovered by a surgeon, who
now gave it as his opinion that they had been produced by
aquafortis, or some other corrosive poison.
Mr. CARLOS COOPEIt, for the prisoner, contended that the
act was unintentional, and called several witnesses, who de-
scribed him to be a person of a humane disposition.
The jury, after consulting together for ten minutes, found
the prisoner Guilty. The sentence was deferred.

WESTERN CIRCUIT.—Exeter, March 24.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice EaLE.)
Eleanor
Reuben Smith was indicted for killing and slaying
Baker, in the city of Exeter, on the 10th of February.
Mr. Searle was counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Cox
for the prisoner.
The prosecutor and prisoner had lived as man and wife to-
gether for many years. On the day in question there was
some quarrel between them, which ended in the woman
screaming violently. The sister of the woman, who lived in
the same house, lan into the room, and found her sister
bleeding from the nose. She stated to her that the prisoner
bad struck her on the face while she was nursing the child,
and that he had previously thrown something at her. The
woman lingered a few days and than died. The surgeons
were of opinion that congestion of the brain led to the death,
which had been caused by violence.
Mr. Justice ERLE having summed up,
The jury expressed an opinion that there was no evidence
to show that the prisoner had struck the blow. .
Mr. Justice ERLE said, that if a jury requited an eye-wit-
ness, many persons would go unpunished. The deceased had
told her sister, in the presence of the prisoner, that he had
struck her a blow; the prisoner had not denied doing so.
Would not the natural inference he that he had struck the
blow ?

SHAMEFUL ASWILT..— William Murray, a master cabinet-
maker, in Half-Moon-street, Bishopsgate, was charged before
Mr. Bingham with having assaulted and wolmdezt a young
woman named Rosa Sheridan, the daughter of a retired
tradesman, living in the same neighbourhood:
It appeared from the evidence of the complainant, whose
head was bound up, and who was evidently in a state of great
suffering, that on the evening of Thursday se'nnight, her
sister-in law accompanied her to the house of a tradesman in
Worship-street, for the purpose of remonstrating with him
on his injurious conduct towards the witness, in inducing her
to Elope with him from the house of her father, and remain
for two nights absent. On mentioning the object of the
visit, the defendant, who was seated in the shop, immediately
assailed the complainant with the most opprobrious epithets,
and advised his friend to turn her into the street. The lat-
ter, however, refused to do so, and the defendant, after some
threatening language, struck her a violent blow on the fore-
head with a massive and sharp edged piece of mahogany,
which produced an extensive lacerated wound, and covered
her face with blood. The defendant immediately followed
up the attack with another violent blow on the back of the
head, which brought her to the ground in a state of insen-
sibility. _ _ _

Mr. BINGHAM said that he had no power to deal ade-
quately with such a case, and he therefore felt it his duty to
send it for the adjudication of a jury.
Frederick William Zribell, the elderly German who
was charged some time since with having caused the
death of his wife by a continuous course of ill-treatment,
was placed at the bar to-day. It was originally alleged
that he actually caused her death by certain blows ; but
since the last examination, a post mortem examination of
the body has taken place, the result of which shows that
typhoid fever carried her off. Under such circumstances
the magistrate said, although it had been proved that the
prisorer had adopted a system of brutal ill-usage towards
his aged wife, still, as that did not actually cause her
death, he felt it his duty reluctantly to discharge him.
He was then released from custody.
A DESPERATE URCHIN.—A youth, twelve years of
age, was brought up in custody for having attempted to
hang himself. It appears that his mother, who is a
poor widow, has done everything in her power to bring
him up religiously and morally, but that, unfortunately,
all her efforts were perfectly useless, inasmuch as he
pursued a course of viciousness quite incredible for his
years. Ho continually stole from her, as well as from
the neighbours, and had actually attempted to stick a
knife into her person. A few days since he stole some
pigeons, when, in order to punish him, his mother
locked him up in a room, telling him, at the same time,
that he would be transported. Fired with the spirit of
contradiction, he fastened his handkerchief to a hook, in
the ceiling, and suspended himself to the other end of
it, where he was found in a state of total insensibility,
and it was difficult to reanimate him,
.

In anwer to the charge, the little raacalltatod that he
was determined he would not be transpoßed, so he had
tried to hang himself.
Mr. BuououTow considered prison discipline might
be beneficial, and consequently remanded him for a
week.

Ajarol. said that all but one. of the jury took that view of
the case.

'ANOTHER " WANDERING FEMALE "—On the afternoon
of' Friday, the 6th March, a lady wanderer came to the farm
of Glenays, in the parish of May bole. Though lame and
pennyless, and destitute of a change of clothes, she had
walked all the way from Aberdeen in the course of three
weeks. From the style of her conversation and manners,
the farmer and his wife were convinced that she had been
accustomed to move in superior society. Under this impres-
sion, they felt it to be their duty to communicate with her
friends. After consulting with a neighbeur, who concurred
in their opinion, the lady's law agent in Edinburgh
was written to on that evening, and by return of post
an answer was received, confirming the statements
the lady had made, and expressing great thankfulness for
the kind attention shown to her by the family at Gle-
nays. A brother-in-law had been in search of her for the
last fortnight; and, after having traced her to Ayr, he had
learned that she was desirous of proceeding southwards,
and, consequently, went on to Dumfries, at which place he
received tile letter which had been sent to the agent in Edin-
burgh; and with his mind relieved (though in the mean-
time his relative had been removed by a friend to Glasgow),
he hastened to Glenays, to express personally the thanks
due to Mr. and Mrs. M'Colm. They had for several days
treated the poor wanderer with the greatest kindness, pro-
viding her with changes of clothes, and with everything ne-
cessary for her comfort.—Aer Observer.
BERKSHIRE PIGS. —A cerrespondent of the Ger-
dener's Chroniae says—" Berkshire is proverbial for its breed
of pigs; and, as the present season is a fit time for rearing
them, a few remarks on the qualities and extraordinary di
mensions of this peculiar breed may be int,reeting to
some of your readers. The Berkshire breed, which is
reek need one of the best in England, is perhaps more
celebr .ted for its fine qualities than its dimensions, al-
though these are often considerab'e. One of the Berk-
shire breed killed is reported to have measured, from the
nose to the end of the tail, three yards eight inches, and to
have stood four feet and a half in height ; its
_weight, when
killed, was eighty-six stones eleven lbs. avoirdupois,
according to the old stone of fourteen lbs., the weight
being 1,215 lbs. Another instance I know of ; one reared
in this country, and recently killed, was found to weigh
thirty-eight score. Examples of the Berkshire breed were
given at the late Smithfield show, which were Wieldy
praised, and successful in competing with other breeds.
Size, however, is of minor importance ; and, since the in-
troduction of the Chinese race, which has tended to the
improvement of our own breeds, we less frequently hear of
instances of enormous magnitude than formerly. The most
common weight of the Berkshire breed is from twelve
to fifteen scorce, although many fattened at two years old
weigh twenty score when killed, and some even more.
Two primary qualities are, that the bone is small, and
that they fatten at an early age on little food. The
true Berkshire breed is known to be black, with white
spots, but some are quite white; their snouts are short,
jowls thick, and ears erect. A mixed breed, by crossing the
Berkshire with the Chinese breed, possesses improved
qualities, though susceptible of cold for want of hair. Ex-
cellent, however, as the flesh of the Chinese hog is, and of
the breeds crossed with it, preference is given, by competent
judges of its qualities, to some of our native improved
breeds, as yielding, what is most essential, the best bacon;
of these, the breed of this, as well as that of other counties,
is highly esteemed.
QUACKERY IN FRANCE —ln a recent lecture de-
livered by Monsieur Magendie, the celebrated French
physiologist, on the value of medical treatment, after men-
tioning various pseudo-medical delusions, he observed as
follows :—" It is with regret that I have laid before you
this melancholy picture of the deplorable abuses which
exist in the medical world. I am afraid no laws on
the practice of medicine will be able to eradicate them.
The quack will always contrive to elude the
wisest regulations, for he knows that patients want to be
deceived. Yes, gentlemen, we love error, and often refuse
to yield to evidence, even when it is proved to us that our
good faith and credulity have been imposed upon. Of this
fact I will give you the following prOof : A lady, a fervent
believer in mesmerism, asked her niece, who was poorly, for
a lock of her hair, in order to consult a somnambulist. The
niece, wishing to try the credulity of her aunt, gave her the
hair of her maid instead of her own. A renowned somnam-
bulist was consulted, and at once recognised, by the hair of
the maid, all the symptoms presented by the niece, whose
sufferings he minutely described, to the great edification of
the lady. The latter was then informed of the trick that had
been played. You would naturally have thought that she
would have recognised the imposture of the somnambulist.
Not at all; she preferred concluding that the maid-servant
had the same disease as her niece, and obliged her to submit
to a regular treatment, as if she had been poorly, although at
that time in the best possible health."
CAUTION AS TO POTATO STORlNG.—Professor Hen-
slow communicates two carious instances of spontaneous
ignition having nearly taken place in consequence of
fibrous materials being used to store potatoes. In one
case a labourer at Hitchui, observing that soma potatoes
intended for seed were sprouting, stored two bushels
in perfectly dry bean dust, the refuse after thrashing
and removing the stalks ; but the moisture from the
potatoes so saturated the bean dust that it heated and
became charred; some of the potatoes were half roasted,
and had it remained unnoticed a few days longer the cottage
would probably have bean burnt down. In the other case.
Mr. Joseph Rand, of Handleigh, in October last, laid up a
quantity of potatoes in a small chamber of his malt house,
carefully packed in layers with dry "malt dust" which falls
through the kiln tiles. About a fortnight ago the Excise
officers, in making their inspection, lighted upon this heap,
and happening to stir it up, found the interior in a state
approaching to ignition, the potatoes parboiled, or half-baked,
and the malt dust perfectly charred. Immediate steps were
taken to remove the heap; the potatoes being chiefly rotten,
were thrown away. and the malt dust was laid on another of
the some material, to be curried upon the land ; but it a short
time it heated again so powerfully, that no tiros was lost in
removing it from the premises, the walls snd floor of which
had been visibly affected by the heat.
EXPORTATION OF BEER.—With reference to an
order issued by the Lords of the Treasury in September,
1842, on the subject of the exportation of strong beer,
the revenue authorities have received a communication
from Mr. Cardwell, secretary to the Lords Commis-
sioners of the Treasury, stating that he has been com-
manded by their Lordships to acquaint them that they
have authorised the Commissioners of Excise to permit
the exportation of bottled strong beer on drawback, in
cases containing two dozen quart or two dozen pint
bottles, provided the case be properly secured and the
quantity of beer exported atk any one time be not less
than 36 gallons. This order has been communicated to
the several departments in London and to all the outports of
the kingdom, for the information and future government of
the officers of the revenue with reference to the Coin-
, missioner's general order, of the 30th of September, 1842,
founded on the previous order of the Lords of the
Treasury on the subject, which, on a memorial, praying
for permission to pack strong beer in cases, instead of in
casks, authorised the Commissioners of the Excise to permit
the exportation on drawback of bottled strong beer packed
in cases, provided that the same should be properly
secured, and the quantity of beer exported at any one
time should not be less than 36 gallons. It will be seen
that the former order sanctioned the exportation of the
article in cases, instead of only, as was previously the case, in
casks ' • the order now issued referring to the quantity only
which is to be so packed in each case, no alteration being made
in the total quantity to be exported at any one time.
FRESH BEAR'S GREASE.—On Ft i lay, a large bear was
drawn through the streets of the metropolis, which it was announced
was about to be slaughtered, and the public invited to purchase the
grease at Is. per ounce.

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.
On Thursday a Court was held for the dic-patch of public
business.

THE CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL.

Mr. HARTLEY (the Chairman of the Parliamentary}* Com-
mittee) brought up the report for presenting a petition to
the House of Lords against the Charitable Trust's Bill. It
stated, that the-Committee having deliberately perused and
considered the Bill, were Of opinion, that it was unjust in
its provisions, and unconstitutional in its operation ; that
the authority thereby proposed to be given to the commis-
sioners and inspectors was too extensive, and witheat ap-
peal; that no provision was made for the publicity of the
prOceedings of the commissioners or inspectors; that all
charities which came under its survey would be obliged to
contribute to the expense of the commission, whether abuses
in the administration of the funds existed or not ; and that
the power of the commissioners to remove trustees was
greater than was necessary, and might be applied to party
or political purposes ; and that the Committee, therefore.
directed the Remembrancer to prepare a draft of a petition to
the House of Lords.

A short discussion, in which strong opposition was ex-
pressed to the Bill, took place, and the report was agreed to
by Ilarge majority; as was the petition which was drawn up
by the Remenibrancer.

Half an hour elapsed, and the jury then returned a verdict
of Guilty.

Sentence—Three months' imprisonment

BLACKFRIARS PIKE, V. THE CORrORATION AND WATEBNIEN

OF THE CITY,

Upon the the motion of Air. T. I-1 ITALL,Ihe report of the
Navigation Cominittee, on the frctineo: ly diactiscd subject
cfthe Blackfria,s-biidge Pier, was taken into consideration
The report, after describing all that had been done by the
Corporation f,r the accommodation of the' public, concludes
with the following paragraph :
"Your Committee have anxiously exerted themselves to
carry out effectually the- wish,- s of this Court. that a safe and
commodious pier should be erected for he accommodation of
the public, and they are d.isirous that th.e acct-ss thereto
should have been equaby and fairly secured for the general
benefit. Your Committee regret that the eagerness acorn
petition, and the pursuit of private interests have intetferred
with these intentions, and prevented in some degree the
general advantage which was proposed by the Court.
"Your Committee cannot close the report wit bout expressing
an anxious hope that the differences amongst, the steam -boat
proprietors, at present impeding tho realization of tneir desire
to afford to all, without distinction, a great public conve-
nience, may at no distant period cease ; and that the objet
of the Corporation, having been obviously to check individual
interest, and solely for the benefit of all classes •of the public,
may yet be fulfilled, and afford that satisfaction which your
Committee confidently anticipated would result from the
liberal expenditure involved, the consideration given, and the
exertion devoted to the attainment of the object in view."

We are indebted to another letter for the following particu-
lars of the new duties on 'a few of the most important articles
of export from this country. As the duties were stated only
in Neapolitan measures and money, which are rather difficult
to reduce to English denominations, we may have made some
errors, and therefore give them both ways :
Prints (including handkerchiefs), 80 grani per square canna
(4d. per square yard).
Bleached cAtona, 45 grani per canna (2id. par square
yard).

Pl,in linens, 100 grani per canna (yid. per square yard).
Figured linens, 110 grani per canna (sid. per square
yarg).

Fustians, velveteens, &c., plain or striped, 170 grani per
canna (7id. per square yar).
Cotton twists,. 17 ducats per cantar (3d. per lb.).
All the preceding duties are subject to a discount of 10 per
cent.—Manchester Guardian.

TERRIFIC TRIMMER STORM AT SOUTHAMPTON.-
About half past one o'clock on Thurs.lay, a fearful thunder storm
burst with great violence over Southampton and neighbourhood, con-
tinuing for aboMt half an hour. Sever.il peals followed each other in
rapid succession, shaking the strongest warehouses and buildings ;
the flashes of lightifng ware awfully grand, and as vivid as those
witnessed during the hottest months of the year. Hailstones fell of
great size, and were then succeeded by snow and rain, continuing
with but short intervals till after sunset. We are happy to hear no
sertaus accidents occurred:

Mr. HALL stated that the alteration which it had been
found necessary to make in the newly-constructed pier, for
the more complete protection of human life, caused a con-
siderable increase of expenditure; and he was happy to
be able to state, that within the last two days the City had
arrived at a perfect understanding with the company, which
had before departed from the arrangements at the pier, so
that there would no longer be ground of difference of opi-
nion.—( Hear, hear.)
The report, which recommended a grant of money not
exceeding 1,1001. for payment of bills for extra works in
erection of the pier, was then agreed to, and sent back to
the Committee to be carried into effect.

The Earl of Aberdeen has resigned the Pri.-sideney
of the Royal Society of Antiquaries, and it is rumoured that his
Lordship's successor will be Prince Albert, Dr. Prfetorius, or Viscount

-A report for' providing funds for the improvement of
Smithfield-market, by the sale of stock in the Court of
Chancery, applicable to the purchase of freehold property,
was brought up and agreed to, and sent back to the Com-
mittee, to be carried into effect accordingly.

" That Your memorialists are decidedly of opinion that no
class would benefit more than the English farmers by the
admission into the market of the wheat now in bon.i, and
that instead of thereby suffering a diminution in pric,,, an im-
provement in that respyct would probably follow such a
measure, calculated, as it would be, to meet the•wants of the
-!onsumer, and baring, therefore, a necessary tendency to
benefit the producer.
That from the complete exhaustion of the stock of old
wheat, further delay in the settlement- of this important
question must, be followed by most injurious consequences;
and your memorialists, therefore, earnestly solicit that the
privilege which has just been conceded in the admission of
