amount of satisfaction. The great bulk of the company
lingered in the grounds and the interior of the building

NEGUS V. GEE.

THE OLD ADAGE—A MISS Is AS GOOD AS A MILE.—
THE STATUTE Of LIM►TATIONS.—This was an action to
recover the sum of 51. 2.5. for goods sold. There was
no defence to the action on the merits, but a question
was raised as to whether the debt was not barred by
the Statute of Limitations, as the summons had only
been taken out on the Saturday, as the six years expired
on the Tuesday, and the summons was not served till
afterwards.

His Honour said a miss was as good as a mile in some
cases, and the plaintiff was just in time. Judgment
would be given for him.

Plaintiff expressed his fear that it would h 6 years
longer before he got the money.

His Honour—Oh, you need not be afraid of the
Statute of Limitations now. The juigment will last for
20 years, and longer than that.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(Ms Day.)

BOW-STREET.

STEALING GUTTA Charles Nash, a dissipated
looking man, was placed at the bar charged with stealing
30Ib. of gutta percha, the property of Mr. Nosworthy,
leather cutter, No. 3, Little Queen•street.

The son of Mr. Nosworthy stated that he lived at
3, Little Queen•street, Holborn, and at about half-past
6 o'clock last evening he was in the back part of the
shop at work and beard a noise at the door. On
proceeding there to ascertain the cause he found
that a long roll of gutta percha, containing about 301 b.
of that material, and worth about 31., had been stolen.
He looked across the street, and saw the prisoner with
the roll of gutta percha on his shoulder, and on asking
him what he was going to do with the property, he said
he (witness) did not know what he was about, but he
told him he knew perfectly well what he was doing, and
then took the gutta percha from him, and then a strug•
gle took place between them. His father came up, and
the man was given into custody.

Police-constable 8 E said the prisoner, on his being
take❑ into custody, admitted stealing the property, say-
ing he had better do as he had done than starve.
The prisoner pleaded guilty to the charge.
The magistrate committed him to prison for G months.

REFUSAL OF CABIN ACCOMMODATION TO
THE ASSISTANT SURGEON OF HER MA-
JESTY'S SHIP CRUISER, AT PORTSMOUTH.
When the Admiralty memorandum, constituting as-
sistant surgeon ward-room officers, appeared, upwards of
12 months ago, we expressed a somewhat confident hope
that the clause which assigns cabins to the officers in
question, " whenever the service will admit," would be
acted upon in a liberal spirit by all officers entrusted
with the cmninand of her Majesty's ships.
We had fo❑dly imagined that all ground for complaint
on this score had ceased for ever in the service. It is,
therefore, with some serious pain that we hear the as-
sistant surgeon appointed to her Majesty's ship Cruiser
has been told there is no cabin for lion in that ♦essel. It
is in no spirit of cavil, or with any feeling otherwise than
for the welfare of the service, that we cad the attention
of the Admiralty to this case, in the hope that their lord-
ships will ascertain whether the obstacles to the proper
accommodation of this officer are not capable of being
removed.

There is no use in blinking a question, and wo there-
fore do not hesitate to call upon ltear•Admiral Richards,
who, we believe, has charge of the medical department,
to see that justice is done in this case.

WILLIAM PALMER OF BUGELEY.

The following is the fac simile of a placard which was
extensively circulated at the recent races at Wilmslow :
Wilmslow Races, September 2d aud 3d, 1856.
John Fletcher,

King's Head Inn, feels great pleaeure in announcing to
his numerous friends and visitors to Wilmslow Races,
that he has secured the services of
John Smith,
of Dudley, the executioner of the late
William Palmer,

at Stafford ; and also beqtri fortunate, through a friend,
of procuring from Liverpool, a
cast of his face and feptures,
forming an exact model of the culprit, dressed in corres-
ponding clothes, as he appeared on th.o morning of exe-
cution. There will be the
scaffold and beam,
with a company of trained officials, who will perform
and go through the ceremony of
Hanging !
Twice each morning of the races. Performance com-
mencing at ten and twelve o'clock.
Admission is. each, 6d. to be returned in refresh-
ments.
The "casts" were obtained from Liverpool, and were,
of
,course, taken at Stafford, on the pretence of being
used for scientific purposes ! It is high time to put a
stop to this species of phrenological humbug.—Man-
chcstcr Examiner.

BURGLARY BY BOYS.

Alfred Edward Griffiths, 15, Bailey Staff, 15, and
James Annison, 12, were charged with burglariouily
breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Robert
Annison, of Pakefield, and stealing therefrom a silver
watch, slbs. of cheese, two loaves of bread, and 4lbs. of
pork.
Mr. Bulwer appeared for the prosecution.
The prosecutor is a farmer, living at Pakefield, and
gave information of the burglary very soon after it oc-
curred. A man named Newbury saw the prisoners on
the following morning. One of them (Staff) was carry-
ing a bundle ; and having heard of the burglary, New-
bury took them to the police station at W.togford. In
th.) bundle were found the eatables mentioned in the in-
dictment, and Griffiths was proved to have secreted the
watch behind a bundle of faggots near the police-station.

The prisoners, who offered no defence, were found
guilty ; and previous convictions were proved against
Griffiths.

The Chief Justice Sentenced Griffiths to 14 days' im-
prisonment, and intimated that he would be sent to the
Reformatory at Hardwick, iu Gloucestershire, for two
years. The other boys were also sentenced to 14 days'
imprisonment, and ordered to be sent, at the expiration
of that period, to the Reformatory just established in
Suffolk.
London, England, 1856-03-27

Toe Chief Justice. expressed his opinion that the
learned counsel had exercised a wise discretion. It ap-
peared from the depositions that the prisoner, after be
had shot the keeper, had suffered great distress of mind,
had run for a doctor, and had rendered every possible
assistance to the wounded man. He was sorry that the
grand jury had returned the bill against the prisoner, for
it was a strange thing to charge a man with intent to
murder under such circumstances.

(Before Mr. Justice Erle.)
CHARGE OF OBTAINING A MARRIAGE LICENSE BY A
FALSE OATH.

1177 r. Mercei, a young man of 21, was charged with
obtaining a marriage license on false representation.
The defendant was resident is the parish of Gresford.
On the 20th December last he applied to the Rev.
George Cuncliffe, vicar of Wrexham, and surrogate of
the diocese, for a license to be married to one Mary
Davies. The usual questions were put, as to the
residence of the parties, their age, &c., the defendant
representing Mary Davies, his intended wife to be above
21 years. He also made oath that he knew of no law-
ful cause, &c., to hinder the said marriage, and that he
had been resident in Gresford parish for 15 days. De-
fend:trit was married on the same day. It afterwards
transpired that the young lady was only 19 years old.
She was living with her uncle, her parents, whose consent
was not obtained, being at the time in the Isle of Mao.
The prosecution was instituted by the surrogate.
_ _ _

T :13 defence was that the defenda:it when-he obtained
the licen.e believed Mary Davies to be of the age he re-
presented her to be. Several highly respectable witnesses
gave him a good character for honesty and truthfulness.
Verdict, not guilty.
The young lady was in attendance, and appeared
greatly distressed, but on hearing the result she was
overjoyed. The case excited great interest, and the
verdict gave unmist 4ceable satisfaction to the majority
present in court.

self in Queen Anne-street. Being tolerably well off ill
the world, the adventurer sought no other benefit at the
time (whatever may have been his cogitations respecting
the future) than the pleasure to be anticipated from such
an interview. He ,00n became thoroughly acquainted
with Ergland's most distinguished landscape painter, for
having ann'ameed the of jest of his visit in the politest
manner imaginable, Turner, eyeing him from top to toe,
replied, "Young man, if that's your errand, the sooner
you get back to Exeter the better ; when I want you,

never sent for. It is only justice to the latter to say tbsit
he states the adventure with great glee.

cellar, into which be put several articles of stock, and
some of his furniture. He removed to a neighbours.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE.

George Jackantam, 19, was charged with feloniously
shooting at John Cook, gatnekeetor' at Assington, with
intent to commit murder, on the 9th September.
Mr. Power appeared for the prosecution.
The case was a singular one. The prisoner was em-
ploy ed by a farmer to kill rabbits, and while he was out
shooting, at 7 o'clock on the morning of the 9th of Sep-
tember, he heard a "rustling" in a fence near him.
Thinking it was a rabbit be fired in the direction from
which the sound Traceeded, and shot the gamekeeper,
who was cocc,!aled in the long grass, wounding him
slightly.
The Chief Justice said he did not think there was any
evidence of an intent to murder. He did not think the
grand jury had the slightest pretence for finding a bill
against the prisoner for that offence. But it was a game
county.
Mr. Power said the gamekeeper had no doubt acted
under the feelings of a man that had been hit.

The Chief Justice said there did not appear to be any
evidence of ill-will on the part of the prisoner.
Mr. Power said he had been informed against by the
gamekeeper for poaching.
The Chief Justice said, if this was the effect of game-
preserving, it ought not to be allowed. It was shocking.
The prisoner might be guilty, under the strict letter of
the law, of unlawfully shooting, but there was no evi-
dence of an intent to murder.

Mr. Power, remarking that the gamekeeper might
have s apposed that more of his person was visible than
could be really seen, and that there was an intention on
the part of the prisoner to shoot him, withdrew the pro-
secution.

ASSIZE IBTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCUIT.—KINGSTON, MARCH 26.
(Before Mr. Baron Alderson and a Special Jury.)
Voss V. CffIgHOLIS.

This was an •action to receiver damages for a libel.
Mr. E. James, Q.C., Mr. Barnard, and Mr. Lloyd
were counsel for the plaintiff ; Sergeant Shee, Mr.
Hawkins, and Daly appeared for the defendant.
The case was only partly opened by Mr. James, who
stated that the plaintiff was a young gentleman, the son
of a banker at Swansea, who entered the army as a sur-
geon in 1851, and after remaining some time at Wool-
wich was ordered to Canada. with his regiment, and was
stationed at Montreal. The defendant, Dr. Chisholm,
was the chief medical inspector, and the plaintiff to a
certain extent was under his orders. It appeared
that a soldier named M`Murray was taken ill and
died, and that an inquiry in consequence took
place into the conduct of Dr. Chisholm, and during
the proceedings certain letters were sent by him to
Lord Hardinge and Lord Raglan, and it was for the re-
publication of those letters (in which many serious and
unfounded attacks were made upon the character of the
plaintiff) in the shape of a pamphlet that the present
action was brought. Mr. James stated that the plain-
tiff at the present time was serving with his regiment in
the Crimea, and he was about to enter into some further
particulars, when
Serjeant Shee rose and said he !mai instructed on the
part of the defendant to express his regret that he had
republished the letters in question. Dr. Chisholm had
himself received full justice by being reinstated in his
former position, and upon reading the evidence upon
oath with regard to the post mortem examination of the
soldier whose treatment was the subject of inquiry, he
felt bound to state that the representations contained in
the letters were founded in mistake, and he felt it due
to the plaintiff and to himself to state this publicly, and
at the same time consent to a verdict
-being taken against
him.

Baron Alderson said it was clear from a perusal of
the letters that the dafendant had this justification, that
Le was in the first instance endeavouring to clear himself.
He added that, in his opinion, the course that had been
taken was honourable to all parties.
A verdict was then taken for the plaintiff with five
guineas damages.

WATER COMMUNICATION BETWEEN
THE BALTIC AND BLACK SEAS.

The blockade of the Russian-Baltic provinces and the
Black Sea have already led us to a new line of communi-
cation being opened between the Ukraine, the steppes,
and the region round about Odessa and Nicolaieff on the
one band, and the north-west of Europe on the other.
The Pinsker Canal, which has been for many years in pro-
gress, was opened to navigation in the course of last year.
It connects the river Bug, which flows into the Vistula,
with the river Pripet z, which flows into the Dnieper ; and
thus it forms the completing link in a chain of water com.
munication extending from the Baltic to the Black Sea.
By this route Dantzic has received in the past year 100
lasts of linseed of unusually good quality (an az tic's that
Dantzic has previously never exported), 12 cwt, of tal-
low, which has found purchasers in England and Bel•
glum, and about 15,000 cwt. of hemp, of which only
5,000 had been shipped when the navigation closed.
There has been also about 10,000 cwt. of tallow de-
spatched thence to Dantzic, but frozen up on the road
from the south, which will also be available at the return
of spring. The only portion of the navigation of this
line of water communication that is described as wanting
improvement is the Bug, to which the attention of the
Russian Government has been already amply directed ;
-and we may be sure that, if the war lasts, this defective
portion of the connecting route from the north to south
will not be neglooted.--loor from Soreilh
