REAT NORTH AN D SOUTH WALES
A RAILWAY.

The Committee appointed by the Shareholders to oppose this Bill
in Parliament have succeeded in getting the second reading of the
Bill postponed till Monday, the 9th inst., and the petition presented
by the London shareholders has been ordered by the House to be
printed.
Petitions against tke Bill will lie for signature with the following
brokers and solicitors :—Mr. Wads worth, broker, Leeds ; William
Ackers, solicitor, Manchester; William Penn Allcock, colicito-,
Birmingham ; Mr. Carvill, broker, Hull ; W. D. Fran, broker, 7,

court, Lothbury. London.
As the petitions must bo presented to the House on Monday after-
noon next, is requested by tho Committee that every shareholder
will attend at once and sign, and they have no doubt it requires but
exertion on the part of the shareholders to insure the rejec-
tion of the Bill and prevent any further waste of the funds of the
Company In a vain attempt to carry a scheine so utterly worthless.

" The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the In.,
herent privileges of mankind, are frequently marred and prevented
through the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such, among
others, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many questions
may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even to the
most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette.
"Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great balk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them; traceable
to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortality."—Wakefield

The obligation to pay the sum centred, although thedebt for which
the policy was taken out may have been paid before the claim arises—
Whole world policies not confined to the limits of Europe—
Option of half-premium payment for the first seven years—
These form a combination of advantages which can be obtained
only from the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Life Company.
The Success which has attended the system of Assurance pursued
by this Company is illustrated by the fact, that at the General Court,

VISION RELIEVED, 39, ALBEABIARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY.—NewIy
invented acoustic tubes, for relief of extreme deathess, and when
inserted in the ear cannot be perceived by the nearest observer;--
they are entirely different from all others, and are the smallest hear-
ing instruments constructed—measuring only a quarter of an inch-in
their widest part; they may be securely adjusted in the ears unob-
served, and removed therefrom with as great ease and facility. Per-
sons are enabled to join in general conversation, and to hear most
distinctly in a place of worship, &c., and what should be greatly
considered, a natural expansion of the cavity of the ear is preserved
—a thickening or contraction of which in many instances is par-
tially the cause of deafness—and by their use the unpleasant sen-
sation of singing noises in the ears is entirely obviated. Also im-
proved hearing trumpets of every description. Immediately the
newly-invented spectacle lenses are placed before imperfect vision,
either by day or candlelight, that mist and dullness which appear
before the eyes is at once removed, every object becomes clear and
distinct, so that the most aged defective sight becomes bright and
brilliant, and is brought to its youthful, natural, and original state.
Also the most powerful achromatic telescopes, opera glasses, and
microscopes. Caution—Messrs. S. and B.. Solomons, opticians, are
not in any way connected with a person of the same slams in their

lately some of the most surprising cures in this terrible complaint
have been made by the powerful virtues of these universal medicines.
If space would permit, the particulars of some few cases might be
cited, which would no doubt astonish our greatest medical men ;
suffice to say, that many who had been cripples for years have been
restored to the use of their limbs, their wounds being completely
healed, while perfect health, by means of the pis, has been the
portion or blessing of all who have been so fortunate as to use these
admirable remedi, s.—Sold by alt druggists, and at Professor Hol-

There are reasons to fear an epidemics of a strange and
malignant character has attacked the flocks of several farmers in the
neighbourhood of Hardwick. The appearance of the animals after
death offer no symptoms of inflammation : the only part affected
is the lungs, which appear tender and ready to fall iu pieces.
Mr. Fisher, of Rowthorne, has lost nineteen hogs out of a flock of
sixty ; and several other farmers have lost eight or ten. The
sheep are seized, on turnips, with difficulty of breathing, refining

CROWN COURT.—(iJefire the LORD CHIEF BARON.)
George Had, 22, w indicted for having feloniously
cut and wounded Joh Fuller, with intent to do him
grievous bodily harm.
On other counts the prisoner was charged with the
intent to rob the pros tor.
Mr. Ryland conduct . the prosecution.
It appeared that the Csecutor was a farmer in the
ncighlnurhood of Ch sford, and on Friday, the 16th
January, he had been to the market at that lace, and
was returning home between six and seven o'clock in
the evening, being at the time what is called market-
fresh, or a little the worse for the good liquor he had
imbibed. It was a very dark night, and when he had got
about a mile out of the town he heard the footst, pi
of a man a little behind him. He walked on,
the man still keeping close to him, and when they got
near a cottage by the roadside the man left him. He
proceeded on his journey, and when he had gut on the
road about half a mile farther, he suddenly received a
violent blow by a stick or bludgeon, which felled him to
the ground. A man instantly fell upon him and seiz:d
him, and at the same instant he received several severe
cuts upon the head, and upon raising his arm to protect
himsdf, he received a cut across his wrist. The
struggle continued for some time, and at length the man
who had attacked the prosecutor, apparently alarmed at
the approach of some one, jumped up and ran away.
The prosecutor was found in a dreadful state, covered
with blood, and almost exhausted, and upon inquiries
being made of him he was unable to give more than a
very slight account of his assailant ; and the only
additional circumstance likely to give any assistance in
the discovery of the perpetrator of the outrage, was the
finding of the peak of a cap, such as is worn by la-
bouring men, near the place where the struggle took
place. Upon those slight materials, however, owing to
the activity and zeal displayed by the constabulary sta-
tioned at Chelmsford, and the care taken in the investi-
gation of the matter by the magistrates, the charge was
clearly brought home to the prisoner. The evidence
was entirely of a circumstantial character, and consisted
of minute facts, all tending to show the guilt of the
accused. It was proved that on the night in question,
and about the time the offence was committed, he was
seen going in the same direction as the prosecutor ; that
he arrived at his own lodgirg shortly after the of-
fence had been committed ; that the peak of the cap
which was found belonged to the cap the prisoner
had been in the habit of wearing ; that he had
purchased a new cap immediately afterwards, and
told the officer that he had fell asleep before the fire,
and that it had dropped off and was burned; and, be-
sides this, it was proved that when the . prisoner was
taken into custody he was dret,sed in entirely new
clothes, and the clothes which, according to the testi-
mony of the witnesses, he had worn on the night of the
attack upon the prosecutor were found in the house
very bloody.
'I he prisoner, when called upon for his defence. said
that he could not say any more than that he was at
home at the time.

- The Loup CHIEF JUSTICE, in summing up, said he
thought that all the parties concerned in the adminis-
tration of justice in this county, not only in this parti-
cular case, but in several others that had come before
him during the assises, deserved very great credit,
for the very careful and searching manner in
which all the cases appeared to have been investigated,
ant the pains that had been taken to produce all the ne-
cessary facts in evidence. It was highly important to
society that, where great crimes were committed, the
perpetrators of them should be brought to justice, and
this could only be done in many cases by a most careful
inquiry—by looking at attentively, and considering
circumstances, which at first might appear trivial, but
which eventually might. when combined with other
facts, make out a chain of circumstanc..s entirely incom-
patible with the innocence of the party accused of the
crime, and which must always be considered as the most
satisfactory evidence that could possibly be adduced in
support of a charge.
The jury, of er a short consultation, returned a verdict
of Guilty.
Evidence was then adduced to show, that on two pre-
vious cccasions the prisoner had been convicted of
housebreaking.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, on passing sentence, told
the prisoner that he had bten convicted of a most
hellions offence, and he might think himself very
fortunate that he was not standing at the bar to answer
a charge of murder, for if he were, there was very little
doubt that he must have been convicted, and his lfe, un-
doub,,edly have been forfeited. Taking into considera-
tion the character of the offence, and the circumstances
under which it had been committed, he felt that the
duty he owed to the public, and the necessity, by a se-
vere example, to deur ethers from the commission of
the like offence, left him no alternative but to pass upon
him the full sentence of the law, which was that he be
sentenced beyond the seat for the term of his natural
life.

James Harding, 25, John Conoiry, 23, Feliz Milreyne,
25, soldiers belonging to the 95th regiment of foot, were
indicted for a felonious assault upon Elizabeth Aldred.
It appeared from the evidence, that the off.'nce with
which the prisoners were charged was committed under
most aggravated circumstances. So far as they will
admit of being described, it' may be stated that in the
beginning of last August, the prosecutrix, accompanied
by her husband, was going across a field in the direction
from Tilbury Fort to West Tilbury, where they met the
prisoners, all of whom were Irishmen, and one of them
inquired how far it was to the fort. They were told that
it was about a mile off, and immediately afterwards
they came up to the prosecutor and her husband, and
one of them said that she was not his lawful wife, and
they would have her with them, and at the same moment
the husband was struck to the ground by a tremendous
blow of a bludgeon. The men then seized the unfortu-
nate woman, and all three of them perpetrated the of-
fence, her husband lying by a portion of the time, bleed-
ing and insensible ; but it would appear that he got up
at one period of the transaction and attempted to go to
the assistance of his wife, when he was again knocked
down in the most brutal manner. The prisoners alter-
nately dragged the woman away, telling her that her
husband was dead, and that they would murder her, and
then there would be no witnesses against them. The
husband, as soon as the prisoners were gone, contrived
to crawl to the villiage, where he obtained assistance,
and the prisoners were app; headed shortly afterwards.
The jury found the prisoners Guilty.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, having made some appro-
priate observations upon the enormity of their offence,
sentenced them to be transported for life.
When sentence was delivered, the prisoners, as is cus
tomary, were handcuffed, and the moment this was done
the prisoner Harding threw his cap into the jury-box,
and at the same time said, " There, you
take that; you'll know the want of soldiers before long."
He then struck his handcuffs violently against the iron
spikes scrrounding the dock, evidently with the intention
of breaking them, when he was overpowered by the
officers in attendance, and removed from the dock. He
was shortly afterwards taken away in the van to the gaol,
and as he was getting into the vehicle, he threw his
cap, which had be©n restored to him, among the crowd,
and called out, " Good bye to Old England, I shall not see
you any more."

WESTERN CIRCUIT.— Winchester,- March 6.
THE LATE FATAL DUEL AT GOSPORT.

It being pretty generally understood that Mr. Pym would
surrender to take his trial to-day, as one of the seconds in the
duel_between Lieutenant Hawkey and Mr. Seton, a very
large number of persons assembled in front of the court.
At nine o'clock Mr. Justice Erie took his seat, and shortly
afterwards a person of respectable appearance came to the
front of the bar.

The Clerk of the Arraigns to the governor of the gaol—
Mr. Barber, who have you there ?

Mr. Barber—Mr. Pym. sir.
The Clerk of the Arraigns—Charles Lewes Pym, you are
indicted for the wilful murder of James Alexander Seton, at
Titchfield, on the 20th of May last, and the indictment states
that Henry Charles Morehead Hawkey feloniously, wilfully,
and of his malice aforethought, discharged a pistol loaded
with gunpowder:and ball, inflicting a wound of which the
said James Alexander Seton languished and died, and you,
Edward Lawes Pyre, are indicted for being present and aid-
ing, abetting, and assisting the said Henry Charles Morehead
Hawkey in the committing of the said murder. (There were
other counts giving different descriptions of the wound.)
Edward Lawes Pym, are you guilty or not guilty ?
Edward Lewes Pym._. of guilty.
Mr. Rawlinson and Mr. M. Smith conducted the case for
the prosecution, and Mr. Cockburn and Mr. Sergeant King-
lake appeared for the prisoner.
The jury having been sworn, were charged with the pri-
soner.
Mr. RAWLINSON opened the case on the part of the prose-
cution. The jury would have collected from the indictment
that the prisoner was charged with an offence of the very
highest nature—namely, that of being concerned in shed..
ding the blood of a fellow- creature. It was not his duty,
and it was as little his inclination, to exaggerate the facts or
overstate any part of the case; but the demands of public
justice, the memory of the deceased, the solicitude of his
friends and relatives, required that the facts should be fairly,
fully, and unshrinkingly brought before them. The transac-
tion out of which the indictmeat arose took place so far back
as the 20th of May last year, and the prosecution came before
them at so late a period in consequence of the accused parties
not being within the hands of justice. He should now
lay before the jury a short outline of the facts which he
should be able to prove by evidence. The prisoner was
charged simply with the offence, that on the evening of the
20th of May he went out with a brother officer, Lieutenant
Hawkey, of the Marines, as second in a duel, in which the
deceased, Mr. Scion, the principal on the other side, fell, on
Brown Down, leading to Alverstoke and Titchfield, three or
four miles from Gosport. He would take up the story on
the evening of the 19th of May. Mr. and Mrs. Seton were re-
siding at Southsea, and Mr. and Mrs. Hawkey and the pri-
soner were attending a ball, or soiree, at the King's Rooms, at
Southsea, this ball being held every other Monday in the
season. In the course of the evening a misunderstanding or
quarrel occurred between Mr. beton and Lieutenant
Hawkey : they retired to a card-roo:n, the dcor was closed,
and after same minutes they came out of the room ; Lieu-
tenant Hawkey sat near the door of the ball-room, with the
prisoner, and, as Mr. Seton left the ball-room, words passed
between them, but what they were was not known. Early
next morning a person called upon Lieutenant
Hawkey, a card was sent up from Lieutenant Rowles,
whe was the second to, Mr. Seton on the occasion. As early
as 10 o'clock in the morning of the 20th two persons, one of
' whom world be spoken to as Lieutenant Hawkey, and the
other he believed would turn out to be the prisoner at the
bar, Wore 'feed proceedipg to Portsmouth from southsea, and
