ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
HOME CIRCUIT.—Lewes, March 13.
(Before the Lona CHIEF JUSTICE.)
At the conclusion of the trial of the Ucktield burglars
last night, Edward Isaacs, 29, another of the same gang,
was indicted fora burglary at Hayward's Heath.
There was also a charge against him and Brooks of
having feloniously assaulted a police-constable with in-
tent to prevent the apprehension of the latter prisoner.
Mr. Johnson prosecuted.
The approver Hamilton was again examined as a
witness, and the charge of burglary was clearly estab-
lished by his evidence end by independent corroborative
testimony.
The jury found the prisoner Guilty; and a previous
conviction for felony being proved against him, he was
sentenced to be transported for life.
James Gulver, alias Bull, Elizabeth Howes, James
Ed,earde, 50, and 4lary Edwards, 50, his wife, were this
morning placed at the bar, the first-metioned prisoner
being charged with a burglary in the dwelling-house of
Thomas Baker, at Rotherfield, and the others with re-
ceiving the property, well knowing it to have been stolen.
Mr. Johnson again appeared for the prosecution. The
evidence of feloniously receiving the property was clearly
established, and it appeared that the prisoner Howes was
the sister of Bror,ks, who was convicted on Wednesday
of the Uckfield burglary, and that this prisoner was the
nephew of the Elwardsss, and the existence of a most
extensive system of plunder appeared to be established.
It would seem that most of the men were occupied as
hawkers travelling about the country, and they wore oc
cupied, under the cover of this apparently honest occupa-
tion, in obtaining information of the places that were the
least protected, and the most likely to afford plunder; and
when the robberies were committed, places of conceal-
ment for the stolen property were provided by other
members of the gang.
The jury found Jame. Edwards, Howes, and Gulver,
Guilty of receiving, and Acquitted Mary Edwards, upon
the ground that she had acted under the influence of her
husband.

The Learned JUDGE sentenced Gulver and Howes to be
transported for fourteen years, and James Edwards was
ordered to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two
years.
Mr. JOHNSON said that there were several other
charges of burglary contained in separate indictments,
but as the whole of the prisoners were now convicted, he
did not think it advisable to occupy the time of the pub-
lic by proceeding with them.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE sanctioned the course sug-
gested, and ho at the same time observed that he thought
it right to state that the Learned Counsel for the prose-
cution had conducted the cases with great cleverness,
firmness, and intelligence, and that himself and the
country were much indebted to him for the ability he
had displayed. His Lordship then said that he hoped
the example that had been made at these assizes of the
parties guilty of such outrages would deter others from
following the same courses, as they must be aware that
it was clear they could not escape severe punishment it
they persevered. Thu whole country had been kept in
a state of alarm by these occurrences, and he did not
wonder that people had been actually afraid to go to
their beds. The police appeared to have acted with
very great zeal and intelligence, and he thought it right
to order them a reward for their activity and good be-
haviour. (The amount was not stated.)
One or two other cases were subsequently disposed
of, and this closed the business of the Sussex assizes.

OXFORD CIRC U I Stafrord, March 12.
The business began on the civil side to-day, at tnelYo,
before Mr. Justice Patteson. The cause list was about
the average, containing fifteen common and five special
jury causes. Doe dem. Bainbrigge e. Bainbrigge, again
appears in it. At present it is said to be doubtful whe-
ther this will be tried at all during the present assizes;
but if it be, it will be after the close of the business at
Gloucester, when his Lordship may return here to dis-
pose of it. Only four cases were disposed of during the
day—one was referred to arbitration.
In the Crown Court the business which engaged at-
tention the greater part of the day was charges of as-
saults arising out of public-house rows. Several of these
were disposed of. Both courts rose soon after six o'clock.
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice TAISOURD.)
Joseph Ferns, aged 26, a labourer, was iudicted for the
manslaughter of Joseph Phillips, on the 22d of Sep-
tember, at the parish of Alton.
Mr. Kynersley conducted the prosecution ; Mr. It,
Thomas appeared for the prisoner.
The deceased was an elderly man, 70 years of age,
and a near neighbour of the prisoner, and on the above
day came to the prisoner's and grossly abused his (the
prisoner's) father. The prisoner unfortunately became
greatly excited, and struck the deceased a blow under
the left ear, which killed him on the spot, but on seeing
the poor man dead, he expressed the deepest regret, and
vowed if ho got off this once he would never lift his
hand against man again. He was immediately
I taken
into custody, and had remained in custody ever since.
He was found Guilty.
His LORDSHIP, in sentencing him, said his conduct in
striking an old man was most improper and indefensible,
yet he could not forget that it was done in a father's
cause, and when such feelings were exhibited they ought
to be regarded with respect. He could see from the
prisoner's demeanour, and gather from what he had
the
said, that he suffered more in mental anguish from
sad consequences of his act than he could from any pu-
nishment which the law could impose upon him. In con-
sideration of his long imprisonment, and all the circum-
stances of the case, the sentence would be a fortnight's
imprisonment.

CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE )
CORT AND ANOTHER V. THE AMBERGATE, NOTTINGHAM,
BOSTON, AND EASTItHiN JUNCTION RAILWAY comp",
This was au action on a contract under seal to deliver
3,900 tons of iron railway chairs between the month of
January, 1847, and May, ISIS, at 61. 15s. per ton. The
alleged breaches were two--:first, that the defendants had
not paid for the chairs, which had been delivered; se-
condly, that though the plaintiffs were ready to deliver
the remainder, the defendant‘i had prevented the plain-
tiffs from delivering, and refused to receive them. As
to the first breach, the defendants had paid 1591. into
court, and it was admitted that that covered the balance
due for the chairs actually delivered. As to the second
breach, the defendants ploaded—first, that the plaintiffs
were not ready and willing to deliver the chairs; se-
condly, that the defendants had not prevented the plain-
tiff+ from delivering or refused to receive them.
Mr. llumfrey, Q C., and Mr. Willinore, appeared for
the plaintiffs; Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., and Mr. Denison,
for the company.
In the end of 1846 the defendants entered into the
contract in question for the supply of a quantity of
chairs which would be sufficient for the whole length of
the line then contemplated-45 miles. Since that time
they had abandoned the idea of making any portion of
the line except that between Nottingham and Grantham.
Only 1,787 tons had been delivered, and the company
'now declined to receive the remainder. By the terms of
the contract a certain quantity was to be delivered per
month, and payment was to bo made after a month's
credit upon the certificate of the engineer. In the course
