and see us." My daughter is either 34 or 35, I can-
not exactly say which. I have had so many children
that I cannot keep the ages of all in my mind. 1 have
five daughters. I nave a nephew an attorney. He con -
ducts the present action. My daughter once told me the
defendant wanted his own letters back, but she said he
might keep hers, but she would not give up his. He
returned her letters some three months after the con-
versation we had on the Sunday. My daughter
afterwards asked the defendant whether he was not
keeping company with Miss Watkinson. He said he
was. She told him she would write to her and in-
form her that he was under a promise of marriage to
her as soon as he should be in circumstances to do
so. She did so write, and offered the lady to answer
any questions, but no notice was taken of the letter.
Re-examined—lt was after my daughter heard the
defendant was keeping company with Miss Watkin-
son that he brought her back her letters. It was in
December, 1849, that she learned he was keeping
company with Miss Watkinson. My son is managing
clerk at an attorney's in Carlisle.
Samuel Reddish-1 am brother of the plaintiff, and
have know❑ the defendant many years. In 1844 I
was with him, and my sister, the plaintiff, in Liver-
pool. I understood they were engaged to each
other. They acted as people in such circumstances
usually do. When I heard defendant was going to
be married to Miss Watkinson I called on him and
told him proceedings would be commenced against
him if he married. He said he had visited the house
only as a friend. I told him he had come to the
house too often, and with a different purpose than
from mere friendship. He admitted he bad done
wrong.

Mrs. Turner, a married sister, gave evidence that
a Mr. Cotteen, a gentleman in the Customs, wished
to pay attentions to the plaintiff. He sent a ring to
her, but she declined to receive it. She spoke to
defendant's visiting the plaintiff in Liverpool, at wit-
ness's house. They went out together to the Zoolo-
gical Gardens. The plaintiff showed me a Bible and
a portrait, which the defendant gave her.
This closed the case for the plaintiff.
Mr. Sergeant H. JONES submitted that no evidence
had been given of a promise to marry, and therefore
there was no case to go to the jury.
His LORDSHIP, however, thought there was some
evidence to go to the jury, the question for them
being, whether they would :infer a promise from the
letters and the statements of the witnesses.

The Learned SERGEANT then addressed the jury
for the defence. There were, he said, in this case,
two issues for their consideration—the first being,
whether the defendant ever promised to marry the
plaintiff; " when" (to follow the special allegation in
the declaration) " he should be in a position to set up
business for himself;" and the second whether—sup-
posing the jury should think that such a contract was
made between the parties—it had not been rescinded
by mutual consent, and the defendant relieved from
the obligation to marry the plaintiff. It had been
said by his Learned Friend, in opening the case to
the jury, that the defendant had
.rejected the plain-
tiff because he had found a lady with larger means
than she possessed; but not one tittle of evidence
had been given in support of that statement. He
would not trouble the jury with reviewing the letters;
they had been read by plaintiff's counsel, and he had
purposely spared the Court the infliction of having
them read by the officer. He would confidently ask
the jury whether they could discover the merest
shadow of a promise in the entire correspondence ?
Certainly he could not. The warmth was all on the
side of the plaintiff. The defendant styles her " Dear
Anne," and she replies "My dearest William." As
to the Bible and picture, no evidence had been given
that they were ever presented by the defendant to the
plaintiff. It was true there was the plaintiff's name
in the Bible written by the defendant ; but what of
that? He (the Learned Sergeant) had himself often
been asked to write a person's name on the cover of
books because he happened to write a good hand, and
that was probably the case here. Those articles had,
however, artfully been put in to create a prejudice
against the defendant, and for the plaintiff's benefit.
Supposing the jury, however, should infer, from the
circumstances, that the defendant had promised to
marry the plaintiff, this was, at all events, not a case
for heavy damages. The defendant had never in-
sinuated or uttered a syllable against the plaintiff. They
were unsuited for each other; there being a difference
of seven years in their ages in the plaintiff's disfa-
vour. The defendant was a green young man when
the affair commenced, and the lady had greatly the ad-
vantage of him. At the marriageable age women are
much sharper and more subtle tacticians than young
men. In the present case the lady was the suitor,
and not the gentleman. The Learned Sergeant next
reviewed the evidence at great length, and with
much ability, contending that it altogether failed to
establish a promise by the defendant to marry the
plaintiff. _ _

The Learned JUDGE summed up with equal mi-
nuteness and care, telling the jury that as in these
cases formal promises are seldom made, it was enough
if, from all the circumstances of the case and the cor-
respondence, they could infer that an intention to
marry had once existed between the parties, and no
release been given by the lady. As to the question
whether the defendant had been absolved of his pro-
mise by the plaintiff, so far from there being any proof
of that, the evidence, in fact, was the other way, for
she bad expressly refused to absolve him, declining to
give up his letters, and her brother threatening pro-
ceedings in a court of justice. But the question
was entirely for the jury, who would take into consi-
deration the means of the plaintiff, who was i❑ a house
and shop of 401 a year rent, and had received no
benefit, in the shape of property, on the death of his
father.

The jury consulted, and in five minutes returned a
verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 201.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Thomas Birchmore, aged 72, and James Skegg,
aged 68, persons having the appearance of labouring
farm servants, were brought before Mr. Alderman
Moon under the following circumstances.
Sir R. W. Carden, Alderman and Sheriff, was
present during the hearing of the case.
Charles Clarke, officer of the London-bridge-wharf,
said—At half past eleven o'clock this morning the
Albion steamer, trading between London and Bou-
logne, arrived at the London-bridge-wharf. From
what was told to me by Mr. Uns worth, of Fish • street-
hill, who was a passenger, I took the two defendants
into custody, and brought them here. I said to them
"Do you know St. Alban's ?" and they both replied
that they did. I then asked them to accompany me
me to the Mansion-house.
Alderman MooN—What is your present charge
against them ? Witness—l brought them here be-
cause Mr. Unsworth informed me that there was a
reward for their apprehension for bribery at the recent
St. Alban's election.
Alderman Moon—Then, upon the authority of Mr.
Unsworth's stating to you that tbere was a reward for
their apprehension you took them into custody, and
brought them here ? Witness—l did.
Alderman MooN—Since they have been in custody
hare you made any inquiry as to whether a warrant
for their apprehension is in existence? Witness—Yes.
Alderman MooN—Have you been able to find any
such warrant? Witness—lnspector l3eckles, who is
stationed at the House of Commons, told me that he
had received instructions not to take any further pro-
ceedings in the case.
Alderman Mooti—Have you been to the office of
the Speaker ? Witness—l have, but I could get no
information there.
Alderman MOON—Did you ask the inspecter, when
you went to the House of Commons, upon what au-
thority he stated to you that he had received instruc-
tions not to take further proceedings ? Witness—l
did not ask him that.
Alderman MooN—Then you did not apply to the
Sergeant-at-Arms ? Witness—l did not. Knowing
the inspector, and the man White or Wright, who has
been ss long looking for them in the first instance, I
thought they could give me every information.
Alderman MooN—Since you have taken these per-
sons into custody have you seen the bill offering the
reward for their apprehension ? Witness—Yes.
Alderman MooN—Has that bill any printer's name
attached to it ? Witness—ldid not notice the printer's
name.
Alderman MOON—To whom does the bill refer
you to apply for the reward ? Witness—To the Se-
cretary of State for the Home Department.
Alderman Moos—And where did you see that
bill ? Witness—At the Mansion-house.
Alderman MooN—On the outside of the Mansion-
house? Witness—No; below stairs, in one of the
offices.
Scott (the Mansion-house officer)—lt is in the po-
lice-office below stairs.
Alderman MooN—Can you get me one of those:bills?
Scott—lt is pasted on the wall. I cannot get it off
without destroying it; but the purport of it is that
the prisoners, when apprehended, are to be delivered
into the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms, and the
application for the reward is to be made to the Lords
Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury.
Alderman MOON—Did you go to the Treasury at
all ? Witness—l did, and from there I was referred
to Mr. Maule. the Solicitor to the Treasury.
Alderman Mooti—What information did you get
from Mr. Maule ? Witness—l saw Mr. Maule, and
he told me that he knew nothing at all about it.
Alderman Moox wished to know from Mr. Good-
man whether bills of this nature were put up at the
Mansion-house without its being ascertained from
some official personage that there was proper autho-
rity for the act. " This," said Alderman I\loon, "is
either a forgery or it is an official document. If it is
an official document, of course there is proper autho-
rity. But, if it is a forgery, there are no sure means
of punishing the parties who have committed it."
Mr. Goodman (the chief clerk) said he understood

thftt the bill had been forwarded to Forrester, the
officer.

Scott (the Al msion-house officer)—lt has the
Quoen's printers' names (Messrs. Eyre and Spottis-
woode) attached to it.
Alderman MooN—Am I to understand that the
Government do not intend to proceed further with
the matter, and that they have abandoned it alto-
gether ?
Mr. Goodman—The question is, whether there is a
warrant in existence upon which to detain these men,
and, if so, with the commission of what offence does
it charge them.
Alderman MooN—The date of this reward which
has been offered for their apprehension would have a
great deal to do with it, because, Parliament being
prorogued, I should have thought they would have
bee❑ discharged from custody if they had been ap-
prehended. The question is, whether it is a magis-
trate's warrant or a warrant of the Speaker of the
House of Commons, or whether there is even a war-
rant in existence at all. The same power that issues
a warrant might cause it to be withdrawn. The ques-
tion is, whether there is any charge against these
men, and the officer who apprehended them states
that he has applied at the office of the Secretary of
State for the Home Department, that he has also ap •
plied at the office of the Speaker, as well as to the
Solicitor to the Treasury, and the inspector of the
police, and that he has not been able to hear of the
existence of any accusation against them. I wish to
know how long this bill has been posted at the Man •
sion-house ?
Mr. Goodman—The proclamation was made about
two months ago. It was a proclamation by the Queen
in Council.
Alderman Moo N—l imagine that when Parliament
is prorogued this reward ceases. It appears to me
that we have no right to detain these men. Is there
any further charge against them ?
Clarke (the Thames-wharf officer)—No.
Alderman MooN—Then I consider that they are
entitled to their discharge.
The defendants were then liberated.
MARY LEBONE.

Mrs. Janet Munro, a fashionably- dressed person,
residing at No. 13, South-bank, St. John's-wood,
was charged before the sitting magistrate, Mr.
Broughton, with having been drunk and disorderly.
Mr. Herring, solicitor, attended for the defendant,
who came up to the court in her carriage, and re-
mained in a private room until a number of other
charges were disposed of; she was stated to be the
wife of a military officer, now abroad, and, in the
regular course of business, she would have been called
upon to answer for the alleged offence on last Monday,
had not a surgeon's certificate been produced setting
forth that she was not well enough to appear.
Mr. Herring, at the outset, addressed a few words
to the magistrate, to the effect that, on the part of
his client, he was ready, in order to save the time of
the Court, to plead guilty, and submit to any fine
which might be imposed.
Mr. BROUGHTON, however, refused to adopt such a
course, and at once determined upon hearing the
whole of the evidence.
Throughout the proceedings MI4. Munro sat at the
attorneys' table, by the side of her legal adviser.
The first witness called was police-constable Bain-
bridge, 105 D, who deposed that at half-past three on
Alonday morning the defendant was brought to the
Molyneux-street station by an officer, into whose
custody she had been given for using abusive lan-
guage, and five or six minutes afterwards her car-
riage, in which was one of her female servants, was
driven up to the station door by her coachman; the
charge was not pressed against her by the gentle-
man making it, and he expressed his intention of
taking out a summons against her, in the event of
her annoying him again ; she then left the station-
house and created a considerable disturbance.
Mr. BROUGHTON—TeII me what she really did.
Witness—She began hallooing, and continued to
make a great noise, and, on my advising her to get
into her carriage and go peaceably home, she said—
" I'll see you first. I'll stop here as long as
I think fit. I dare you to interfere with me ; and
I'll make you remember this, for I'll have Mr. Ro-
binson, a solicitor in Spring-gardens, and another so-
licitor from the City." She jumped about and swore she'd
be d— if she would go ; and, in consequence of the noise
she made, many persons who had been disturbed
threw up their windows. I told her that if she did
not go away I should take her inside, when she ex-
claimed, " You brute !—lay your hands upon me if
you dare !" I laid hold of her to take her into the
station, when she seized hold of the iron railing. I at
last got her in; and Sergeant Pearce, the acting in•
spector, then gave her another opportunity of going
away if she thought fit to do so.
Mr. BROUGHTON—In what state was she? Wit-
ness—She was quite drunk.
By Mr. Herring—The noise outside lasted about
ten minutes. lam sure that the defendant was not
merely excited; she was decidedly much the worse
for drink.
Sergeant Pearce was sworn, and he said, that as Mr.
Holder, who made the charge in the first instance,
would not press it, and as the constable did not hear of
any of alleged abuse, he (witness) let defendant go.
Soon after she had got outside he heard a great noise,
and saw her walking up and down in front of her
brougham. He begged of her to take her seat, and go
home; but she vowed that she would not ; and he then
told Bainbridge, that if she persisted in the disturb-
ance he must do what he knew to be his duty. He
(Bainbridge) brought her into the station after the
lapse of ten minutes from the period of herfirstquiting
it, and witness then gave her another opportunity of
going away, as her carriage and servants were waiting
close by; but she would not avail herself of the offer,
and she was therefore charged and locked up. At eight
o'clock she was liberated upon bail.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Was she drunk, or not? Wit-
ness—She was drunk, Sir.

By Mr. Herring-4 did not hear her make any
charge against Mr. Holder or any one with him, about
any property having been stolen from her premises. I
am certain that she was not merely excited, she was
really drunk.
Mr Herring, in addres-ing the magistrate, said it
would ill become him to urge, that because the defen-
dant was a " lady," more favour should be extended
to her than to any other in a humbler sphere of life.
The fact was that she believed that she had been
robbed by one of Mr. Holder's party, who had been at
her house, and that, owing to the charge not being
taken when preferred by her at the station-house, she
became much excited. If she really made use of the
low expressions sworn to, such conduct was the effect
of excitement, and not to be attributed to defendant
having indulged in drink.
Mr. BROUGHTON (to Sergeant Pearce)—After the
charge of drunkenness and disorderly conduct was
made, did the defendant make to you a charge of
felony against either of the parties in attendance at
the station ? Pearce—She did not, Sir.
Mr. BROUGHTON, in the course of the remarks
which he made upon the evidence adduced, alluded to
his having had defendant before him upon a former
occasion, and said it was quite clear that drink had
made a very great change in her appearance, and that
if she was desirous of keeping up the character of a
"lady," as she described herself to be, it would be no.
cessary for her to reform her conduct altogether. It
was in his power to commit her at once to the House
Correction, but as the inspecting sergeant had not in
the first instance deemed it imperative upon him to
lock her up, but gave her an opportunity of going
home, and as she had not offered any kind of violence
to the police, he should convict her in the penalty of
405., or seven days' imprisonment, for drunkenness
and disorderly conduct in a public street.
The fine was immediately paid, and Mrs. Munro
made her egress by the front door, through which,
prior to the case being called on, she had entered.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Angus Brown, John Wright, and .Tames .3l'Cor-
mock, three soldiers of the Royal Horse Artillery,
were placed at the bar before Mr. D'Eyncourt,
charged with the following scandalous outrage at the
house of Mr. William Syers, a tavern keeper in High-
street, Shoreditch.

Captain Algey, of the division to which the pri-
soners belong, attended to watch the case, and Mr.
Vann, the solicitor, conducted the prosecution.
Miss Emma Harrison, a remarkably fine young
woman, the daughter of a substantial farmer in Nor-
folk, and who was painfully agitated and affected
while giving her testimony, stated—l am at present
staying upon a visit at the house of Mr. Syers, having
come up from the country with some friends to see
the Exhibition, and at half-past eleven last night I
went to bed in the back room on the second floor. I
had not been asleep more than two hours when I be-
came sensible that some other person was present, and
upon thoroughly awaking found a man in my bed,
lying by my side, with one of his arms round my
neck, and totally undressed, with the exception of his
shirt. This man I can positively swear was the pri-
soner Brown, whom I had seen, previous to retiring
t) rest, in the public parlour of the house, to which
he had come in the course of the evening, and I heard
him ask if he could he accommodated with beds for
three. When I awoke and found his arm round my,
neck in the manner I have described, I also saw an -
other man standing at the foot of the bed, who had on
dark trousers, but no coat. He was one of the other
two prisoners, but which I cannot say, but I dis-
tinctly saw that he had military trousers on. I was
dreadfully terrified, and screamed loudly, and, en-
treating the men for God's sske not to hurt me,
sprang out of bed as rapidly as I could. The prisoner
Brown leaped out of bed also at the same time, and,
running to one of the closets in the room, closed the
door, and endeavoured to conceal himself. Mr. Syers,
who had been alarmed by my screams, at that mo-

_
ment hastened into the room to my assistance, fol-
lowed by his wife, and Mrs. Syers, suspecting some-
body was concealed there, went to the closet, and,
finding Brown standing there upon some steps, seized
him Armly by one of his legs,exclainlitig 41 CQUIOVII;

you villain," and the prisoner didlso. Mr. Syers in the
meantime returned to the room and secured Brown,
expressing his determination to hold him until the
police came, and, hearing one of the other two priso-
ners, who were also present, privately exclaim to his
companions, " We are three to one ; let us kill the
I hurried out of the room during the struggle
which ensued between them, and running in my fright
into the bedroom of the witness Collins, concealed
myself there in my nightclothes under the bed until
the police had effected an entrance and secured the
soldiers. The witness added, that she had no conver-
sation whatever with either of the prisoners previous
to the commission of the outrage, and the only time
she had been nigh them was once when she handed
them some beer at the request of the servant, who was
otherwise engaged.
Mr. William Syers deposed—l am the landlord of
the house in question, where the prisoners last night
engaged some beds ; they all returned together about
a quarter to one this morning to sleep, and I showed
them their beds, which were in one of the attics.
About five minutes afterwards one of them came to
my room door to ask for a light, which I gave him,
and after that saw all three in their room, partially
undressed. In a few minutes subsequently I heard
loud shrieks in a woman's voice, and on opening mY
door I saw one of the prisoners go into his own room,
with nothing on but his shirt, and cautiously close
the door after him. This I can positively state was
not the prisoner Brown, but one of the other two
men. I then ran into the last witness's bed-room,
from which the screams appeared to ins to have pro-
ceeded, and found her in great terror, sitting on the
side of her bed in her night-dress. On being made
acquainted by her with the prisoner's infamous
conduct, I hastened out of the house for a police-
man, and, on returning, almost directly after, saw'
my wife pulling Brown out of the closet by the
legs. He had nothing on, also, but his nightshirt ;
but I laid hold of him, and a violent contest ensued
between us, in the course of which both
my wife and I were thrown down. I was flung upon
the bed by Brown, and held there by the throat
until the entrance of the two other prisoners, who
likewise caught me by the throat, which they held
with such force as to leave the marks of their fingers
upon my neck. (The witness here exhibited his neck
to the magistrate, and displayed the marks he referred
to.) The witness added that in the course of the
struggle between them his night-dress was completely'
torn into ribands, and the bedstead and other articles
of furniture were broken to pieces, the men conduct-
ing themselves with great determination, and one of
them uttering the exclamation about killing him, as
they were three to one, before referred to. The men
then forcibly dragged him from that bedroom into the
one occupied by the witness Collins, where they were
at length secured by the police, and where he saw the
first witness, Miss Harrison, concealed in great terror
beneath the bed.

Mr. Henry Collins, the next witness, said—l re'
side at Birmingham, but am at present staying at the
last witness's house, where I slept last night. I went
to bed at twenty minutes past twelve, and was awoke
some time after by loud cries of " Murder," in 2
female voice, in a room opposite mine. I got up t°
learn the cause of it, and the instant I opened ID"
door the first witness, Miss Harrison, rushed in in
great terror, and tried to conceal herself. I after-
wards saw the three prisoners drag Mr. Syers with
great violence out of Miss Harrison's room into mine,
where they flung him upon the bed, but the police
fortunately came in at the moment and took all three
into custody.
Stringer, a constable of the City force, deposed to
having, with the assistance of two other officers, taken
the prisoners into custody, and that upon finding then!
in the room of the last witness, Collins, they were al'
three more or lass undressed.
When called upon for their defence the prisonerB
severally expressed the utmost possible contrition for
their gross misconduct, which they attributed to the
effects of partial intoxication, and entreated the Ma"
gistrate to deal leniently with them.
Mr. D'EYNCOURT, however, told them that be con•
sidered even the fullest summary powers with which
i
he was invested were wholly incommensurate to dee
adequately with such an outrage, and he therefore felt
it his duty to commit the whole of them for trial.
The depositions were thereupon taken by g
Hurlstone, the second clerk, but, upon his proceeding
to read them over, the prisoners (one of whom,
Brown, a well-made and handsome-looking fellovrt
had been crying convulsively ever since he W 66
placed at the bar, and appeared to be completelfd
abashed by his degrading position) earnestly entreate,
the Magistrate not to send them for trial, as it ninsb
be the inevitable ruin of them, and this appeal being,
seconded by an equally earnest one from Mr. Syer:
and the prosecutrix, Miss Harrison, who seerae"
scarcely less affected than Brown himself, and el'
pressed great repugnance to being subjected to a se'
cond public examination,
Mr. D'EYNCOURT at length said, that in conga"
quence of such an earnest appeal from the prosecutrix
herself, seconded by the other person most interested?
Mr. Syers, and also in consideration of the two prin-
cipal witnesses residing at such distances as Birminir
ham and Norfolk, he felt bound to accede to the course
suggested; but in doing so he should mark his sena°
of the prisoners' conduct by inflicting upon them the
highest amount of penalty he could impose. 11°
should therefore order the prisoner Brown to pay°
penalty of 51. for the aggravated assault upon !Lie,
young lady, or in default to undergo two months' 111;,
prisonnaent in the House of Correction ; a second n"
for his attack upon Mr. Syers, or two months more, tcni
commence at the expiration of the first term; 6D
each of the other prisoners to pay the full penalty n
.5/. each, or in default to stand committed for t241,s
months respectively to the House of Correction.
