L. One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
titter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the, indissoluble, regret un-
eemprosing hurry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Donour and justicedemaad that health should form au item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er
ceglect woand more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

. WESTeRIY ClRCUlT.—Dorchester,,July 21.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.)
Louisa Jarvis was indicted for the wilful rourdt;rof
her female child, Mary Ann, at Shaftesbury,in this
.county, on the 27th of March last.

Mr: Hodges appeared for the prosecution. No coma-
sel was instructed for the prisoner; but at the request of
the Learned Judge, Mr: Stock took the depositions, and
promised to watch the case on her behalf.
It appeared from the evidence that, oa the 13th of
March last, the prisoner went into the Shaftesbury
union, being then in a state of pregnancy. On the
16th of that month she was delivered of a female bas-
tard child. The mother and the child went on well for
several days. The mother, however, refused to suckle
the child, and it was in consequence brought up by
hand. Oa the night of the 07th of March the child
cried excessively, and in a most unnatural manner,
as if in great pain. The mother was in conse-
quence again applied to to stickle it, but she resolutely
refused to do so. On the following morning the appear-
ance of the child was muck altered. She bad a mark
under the left ear as if she had been pinched. On the
Sunday after the poor child died. The opinion of the
medical witnesses was, that the death was caused by con-
gestion of the lungs. After the inquest which was
holden upon the body, the governor of the workhouse
went into the room where the prisoner was. The in-
.happy woman observed to him, "I did it, sir." He
thereupon asked her how she did it; she replied,
"I tried
to squeeze it with my fingers, but as I could not manage
that, I knelt upon it with my knees and did for it At
this time she was in a great state of excitement, crying
and tearing her-hair.- This excitement continued to in-
crease, and in a day or two afterwards it became neces-
sary to send her to a lunatic asylum, where she re•
mained until- the day before her trial. It was further
proved that there had beet -insanity in her family; and
the surgeon said that her face bore indications of here
ditary insanity.
The prisoner was acquitted on the ground of insanity.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.— Worcester, July 21.
CROWN COURT.—(Befor© Mr. Baron Roux.)
The Court was occupied a great parr of the day in dis-
posing of cases unfit for publication. No trial of import-
ance came on.

NORFOL`K ClRCUlT.—Ccinzbridge, July 22.
The business of the assizes for this county commenced
this morning, beforo Mr. Baroa.Parke, in the Nisi I'rius
Court, and Mr. Justice Maule, in the Crown Court.
The cause list contains an entry of thirteen actions, most
of Which are of considerable pecuniary importance, and
some of public interest. The calendar contains the
names of twenty-five prisoners. Two of the prisoners
have been committed fur arson, one for burglary, four
for cutting and wounding, one for rape, one for placing
obstrUctions across a railway, and the rest for offences
of minor gravity.
William Ward was indicted for wilful and corrupt
perjury.

Slr.-Palmer. and Mr. Burcham conducted the prosecu-
tion; Mr. Couch defended the prisoner.

The perjury charged was committed in a paltry case
in the County Court. The prisoner was found Guilty.
Sentence deferred.

Tho other cases were not of general interest.

HOME ClRCol7.—Chelusford, July 22.
CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justin! COLTXAN and a
Common Jury).
ROBERTS, CLERK, V. TUCKER, CLERK.

This was an action brought by the Rev. Mr. Roberts,
the stipendiary curate of St. Botolph'a, Colchester,
against the Rev. Mr. Tucker, the incumbent of that
parish, to recover damages for a breach of contract.
The declaration alleged that an agreement was entered
into hetweedthe parties, by which, in consideration of
the plaintiff duly performing the duties appertaining to
his office of curate, and to the satisfaction of the Bisbop,
&c., the defendant undertook to pay him a certain sti-
pend derivable from the Queen Anne's Bounty fund, and
also to take the necessary steps required to be adopted
by the incumbent of , a parish to obtain from a certain
society, called the Curates' Aid .Society, an additional
allowance of 701. per annum,. and that the defendant ne-
glected to perform this latter portion of his agreement,
and consequently the plaintiff had been deprived of the
additional stipend, and this action was brought to re-
cover the amount of that stipend for the period for
which it had not been paid through the alleged neglect
of the defendant. There were several pleas put upon the
record by the defendant. There were several pleas put
upon the record by the defendant, but the principal one
was a denial that any such agreement as the one alleged,
in the declaration had been made by him.
Sergeant Shee and Mr. Ogle were for the plaintiff,
and Mr. Montagu Chambers and Mr. Peacock for the
defendant.

The case having occupied the Courtla considerable
time,'
Mr. Justice COLTMAN said he had no doubt the agree-
ment came within the statute of frauds. . There might
also be considered a doubt whether the plaintiff had
proved the contract he had set up, bat it was nut net
cessary to discuss that point as he was clearly of opinion
that upon the former point he must direct is nonsuit.
The plaintiff was accordingly nonsuited.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, July 21.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice Enix.)
Joseph Redgwick, Richard Lodge, and George Mathews,
were charged with having feloniously cut and wounded
Noah Hook, with intent to do him grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Overend and Mr. Hardy were for the prosecu-
tion ; Mr. Joseph Pollock defended Redgwick and
Mathews, and Mr. Price defended Lodge.
The prosecutor, Noah Hook, a gamekeeper to Mr. T.
W. Beaumont, of Breton Park, near Wakefield, stated
that whilst he was on watch, in company with other
keepers, on the night of the 21st of May last, be heard
a gun fired in a wheat field near to where they were
watching. On looking into the field the watchers saw
three or four men, whom they pursued, the prosecutor
being the most active and foremost in the pursuit. When
they approached to within twenty yards of the men,
they stopped and pointed their guns at the prosecutor,
but they did not fire. The men then turned round and
ran off, closely followed by the prosecutor and his com-
panions. When at a distance of seven or eight yards
from the objects of their pursuit, the men stopped and
made a furious attack upon Hook and the watchers with
their gub-stock, hitting them upon the side of their heads,
and thereby inflicting several dangerous wounds. Redg-
wick was taken into custody upon the spot. Mathews
and Lodge escaped, but in their haste their gun-stocks
were left behind, and were identified as belonging to
them.
_ .

The Jury,- after a very protracted consultation, re-
turned a verdict of Guilty against all the prispners, and
they were sentenced to be transported for fourteen years
each.
