LAW INTELLIGENCE.
JUDGES' CHAMBERS, Sept. 23.
(Before Mr. Baron MARTIN.)
TUE QUEEN V. HENRY DIHSDALE AND OTHERS.

At the sitting of the Learned Baron this morning,
Mr. llobler applied on behalf of the defendant, Henry
Dimsdale, for leave to issue a writ of habeas corpus,
returnable forthwith, directed to the keeper of the
Queen,s Bench Prison, to bring up the defendant for
the purpose of his being admitted to hail, to surrender
at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court, to
an indictment, at the instance of Mr. Jarman, prefer-.
red against the defendant and others, for assaulting
the prosecutor by throwing eggs and bags of flour, on
their return from the last Epsom races. The Learned
Gentleman said he had given notice of the intended
bail to the prosecutor, and he fully understood that no
opposition would be offered to the application.
The Learned JUDGE said, under the circumstances,
the writ might issue; and at the request of Mr.
Hobler, appointed half-past one for taking the bail.
At that hour the defendant was brought up in cus-
tody.
• The several parties, as also the bail, being in at-
tendance,
The Learned JUDGE asked the solicitor for the pro-
secution if there was any objection to the sufficiency ?
Mr. Jarman said he did not propose to offer any.
The bail having justified i❑ 2001. each, and entered
into the requisite recognizances, the recognizances of
the defendant in 4001. were signed and taken, and an
order made for his discharge.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 23.
IN RE ISEMONGER AND ISEMONGER.
The bankrupts were merchcnts of Little Hamp-
ton, Sussex. This was a meeting for the choice of
assignees and proof of debts. The debts and liabili-
ties were said to be between 2,0001. and 3,000/., the
assets about 3001., independent of some property,
which was mortgaged, a surplus from which was ex-
pected.
Mr. N. Dyer and Mr. E. Corney, of Little Hamp-
ton, were appointed assignees.
A gentleman representing some creditors residing
in the north of England made an application to his
Honour that a north country creditor should be joined
with the Little Hampton ones.
His HONOUR said the creditors were to determine;
the court was not ever to be called upon to counsel
them whom they were to choose. Those who at-
tended were to Tote and choose. The only ground
for the court to interfere was when the persons chosen
were unfit, and nothing of that sort bad been shown
in this case.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Sept. 23.
(Before the CHIEF COMMISSIONER.)
IN RE JOSEPH STAMMERS.
This insolvent, lately lessee of the Marylebone
Theatre, applied for his discharge, which was un-
opposed.
The Learned COMMISSIONER examined the sche-
dule, and inquired if any of the performers em-
ployed at the2Marylebone Theatre were creditors ?
The insolvent replied that 50 or 60 persons were,
some for the current week's salary at the period of
his arrest, and some for arrears. Altogether about
100 persons were employed in the theatre.
The insolvent was ordered to be discharged forth-
with.

IN RH EDWARD RICHARD!.

This insolvent wai opposed by Mr. James, a tailor,
who stated that the insolvent ordered a suit of clothes
of him in June last, to be sent to Anderson-street,
Chelsea, an address that was not mentioned in the de-
scription.

The insolvent said he had not resided in Anderson-
street, hut had his letters and parcels addressed to
that place. He resided at that period at Battersea.
Mr. Nrcuors, who supported, submitted that as
the insolvent's real residence was mentioned in the
description the Court would not require a re-adver-
tise:nent.

The CHIEF COMMISSIONER, however, decided that
the decriptiun was insufficient, and adjourned the
case for the insolvent to advertise himself as of An-
derson-street.

IN BE JOSEPH DELL.

Mr. CooKE applied in this case for a dismissal of
the petition filed under the protection statutes, and
for leave to file one under the Ist and 2d Victoria, c.
110. The insolvent wrs in custody upon an attach-
ment from the Court of Chancery for non-payment
of a sum of money as a contributory to the North of
England Banking Company, and as be, therefore,
was a partner in that company he was liable to the
bankrupt laws, and could not petition under the Pro-
tection Acts, his debts exceeding 3001.
The COMMISSONER granted the application.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 23.
(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant-Judge, and
a Bench of Magistrates, at the Guildhall, \\rest-
minster.)
Harriett Mauseley, aged 19, was indicted for
having stolen a pair of stays and other articles of
the value of 11s., and the sum of sd, the property of
W. Austin, under the following circumstances :
It appeared that the prosecutor is a private in the
3d battalion of Grenadier Guards, and that whilst he
was on duty, in the month of July last, at Spring-
gardens-gate, St. James's-park, he observed the pri-
soner wandering about as though in a state of all but
starvation, and in a very dilapidated condition in re-
spect to health. He spoke to her, and finding her to
be in the weakly state which her external appearance
had indicated, he told her to go to his home, No. 13,
Lower Crown-street, Westminster, where she would
find his wife, who would give her something to eat
upon her stating that he had sent her. Accordingly,
the prisoner went, when the prosecutor's wife gave her
some coffee and bread and butter, and also allowed
her the use of water, soap, and towel, with which to
wash herself. Upon the prosecutor's return home he
told her that as it was night she might sleep there.
For this boon the prisoner appeared to be most
thankful, and he accordingly desired his wife to
make up a bed for her on the floor. Here she slept
that night. In the course of conversation the prisoner
told the prosecutor that she was a stranger in London,
and had run away from her home at Chichester,
whereupon, as the girl appeared to lament the step
she had adopted, the prosecutor offered to put himself
in communication with her father, with a view to her
being restored to her home. Oa the following morn-
ing the prosecutor and his wire went out for a short
time, and during their absence the prisoner had made
up a bundle of somo of his wife's clothes, and walked
off with it. Nothing more was heard of the girl until
the 3d of the present month, when she was met by the
prosecutor, having on at the time the bonnet and
shawl of his wife. Of course he at once gave her into
custody.
The prisoner now made no defence.
The Learned JUDGE having summed up the evi-
dence,
The jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
The Learned JUDGE then said that the conduct of
the prosecutor in this matter was in the highest degree
creditable to him, not only as a soldier, but as an Eng-
lishman. The Court deemed it necessary to say
that much, for whenever a soldier was convicted
before him of an offence against the criminal law,
be never spared censure of the severest kind. Upon
all occasions, therefore, when the opportunity
offered, it afforded him much gratification to be able
to commend the conduct of a British soldier. It was
by such men as this prosecutor that the real honour
and integrity of the British army were supported.
With respct to the prisoner, her conduct had been
marked by the blackest ingratitude. The sentence
upon her—she was well known, it appeared, to the
officers —was imprisonment and hard labour for six
months.

George Hamilton Gritton was charged with having
stolen the sum of 101. 2s. 91., belonging to Mr. Wil-
liam Samuel Burton, furnishing ironmonger, of 39,
Oxford-street.
Smith, 16 E, apprehended the prisoner on Thurs-
day last, and told him he wanted him for embez-
..

zling 101. and upwards from Mr. Burton. The pri-
soner said, "They don't mean to press the charge, do
they ?" On his way to the station the prisoner said
he had been very foolish ; it was the only act of
dishonesty he had ever committed, and he would take
care it should be the last. This he repeated several

times.
The prisoner, who said he had no defence to offer,
was committed for trial.
CLEI?KENWELL.

Mr. John Batten, aged 33, of 70, Southampton-
street, Pentonville, master-plasterer, was placed at the
bar before Mr. Combe, charged with unlawfully as-
saulting Sarah Maidment, a girl 14 years of age, with
intent to violate her.—The prisoner was remanded. 4
LAMBETH..
William Bowen, a well-dressed young man, who
was described in the charge-sheet as a clerk, residing
at 2, Agnes-street, Waterloo-road, was brought be-
fore Mr. Elliott, charged with committing a most
outrageous assault on Eliza Smith, a young girl
about 16 years of age, with intent to commit a rape.
The complainant, who cried very much during the
examination, and appeared to be suffering extreme
pain from the prisoner's violence, said that about the
the end of August she left her parents' roof in York-
shire for the purpose of seeking a situation in London.
Having some friends here she succeeded about a fort-
night ago, when she entered into an engagement with
a lady in York-place, York. road, to remain with her
six months, as companion. On Sunday night, about
nine o'clock, she went out for a walk, and proceeding
a greater distance than she intended, lost her way. She
felt very much alarmed, and asked several persons the
way back to York-place, when she again missed her
way, and meeting the prisoner at the corner of a street,
asked him to point out to her the way home. He re-
plied that he was going to the York-road, and he would
show her the nearest way. Believing him to be a re-
spectable single young man she readily accepted his pro-
posal, and accompanied him up a street which she had
ascertained since was Granby-street. Perceiving the
railway at the end and some railway carriages, she
turned round to him and said, " Surely that is not the
way to the York-road." He replied, "Oh, it's all
right—it's the nearest way. 'When they got to the
end of the street he seized hold of and threw her down
in a recess, when he pulled her about in an indecent
manner. She struggled hard with him and screamed
very loud for help, but he nearly completed her ruin
before any one came to her assistance. (Here the
poor girl described the bra tal manner in which she
bad been treated, the particulars of which are unfit
for publication.)
James Bridge, a carpenter, residing at 8, Griffin-
street, York-road, said that about half-past nine
o'clock on Sunday night he was going home through
Granby-street. When he got near the end he stood
talking to a woman, when he heard the screams of
another woman a short distance off. There being so
many bad characters living about there, and such
noises being of frequent occurrence, he took no no-
tice at first, but the screams were continued weaker
sad weaker, as if from some one in diatress. He

Charles Hancock, aged 25, was indicted for having
stolen a carpet and other articles of the value of 31.,
the property of Newby Hutchinson.
The prisoner, it appeared, had been in the service
of the prosecutor, an upholsterer, in Oxford-street, for
a short time, but was discharged some time in the
month of June.

The principal witness against the prisoner was a
young woman of the name of Eliza May, the wife of
John May, of No. 6, Queen-street, Golden-square,
who had lived in adultery with the prisoner for nearly
two years. The evidence of this witness went to
show that during the time the prisoner had been
in the service of the prosecutor he had been in the
habit of bringing various articles home, of which
those now charged in the indictment as having been
stolen were a part. Some of the things, at the in-
stigation of the prisoner, she had pawned at Chap-
man's, in London•street, Tottenham-court-road. I
Eventually a quarrel arose between her and the pri-
soner, and upon her expressing her determination to

leave him, he refused to allow her to take away her
,clothes. After some difficulty she obtained possession
of her clothes, and among them she found the dupli-
cates of the prosecutor's property. Hence the present
prosecution.
Irt cross-examination the prisoner asked the witness
'wh,ither she was not his wife.
`The witness denied that she was his wife, and added
thi it she was the wife of John May.
The prisoner—What, were we not married in Ja-
nt tary, 1850, at Trinity Church, in the New-road ?
T. 3e witness—No, I never was married to you.
The prisoner said he would most solemnly swear
th at he was married to the witness at the time he had
at ated, and at the church he had mentioned. That
'wing so, then, as a wife could not give evidence
against a husband, he besought the jury to pay no
attention to what she had sworn,
The witness, in reply to a question from the Court,
stated that she was the wife of John May, and had
never been married to the prisoner.
The prisoner, when called upon for his defence,
said that it was of no use for him to say anything, for
the woman had made up her mind to convict him by
false evidence. In conclusion he declared most
bokinnly that she was his lawful wife.
The Learned JUDGE left the case to the jury, who
found the prisoner Guilty.
The Learned JUDGE sentenced him to six months'
imprisonment and hard labour.
James Reilly, aged 28, was convicted of having un-
lawfully and violently assaulted and wounded Emily
Marriott.
The details of this case appeared in our police re,
ports a few days since.
The Learned JUDGE sentenced the prisoner to 8
months' imprisonment and hard labour.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOTV-STREET.
Charles Appleby, a middle-aged man of respecta-
ble appearance, who stated that he was an under-
graduate of the Dublin University, was charged with
obtaining 401. by false pretences.
2lr. Clarkson, the barrister, attended for the pro-
secution; and Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, defended the
prisoner.
Mr. Thomas Frank Judd, of 11, Clarence-road,
Kentish-town, said—l was walking near the Crystal
Palace, in Hyde-park, during the latter part of De-
cember last, when I accidentally met the prisoner,
whom I had known formerly as the master of a pro-
prietary school at Cheltenham, where I was then a
pupil. He asked me what I was doing, and I told
him I was a clerk in the Admiralty. I asked him
what he was doing, and he replied, " I am a barrister
in the Temple." After some other conversation I
said that I felt inclined to study for the bar myself,
and asked him what was the usual course of pro-
ceeding, and the expense of entering as a student.
He said if I would call upon him at his lodgings, at
6, Grafton-street East, he would give me every in-
formation. I called upon him a few days afterwards
and said I would have my name entered, and he then
stated that he should require 401. to pay for my ad-
mission. I procured the money and accompanied
him to the Temple, where he left me, se he repre-
sented, to go to the treasurer's-office and pay in the
amount. Presently he returned to me and produced
some papers, one of which purported to be a receipt for
the amount. I remarked that it was not stamped,
and told him that I thought the Temple people ought
to conduct business in a better manner. He returned
and produced another receipt, signed " H. Compton,
treasurer," and duly stamped. After showing me the
receipt, he said, " Now you are a student of the Tem-
ple." This was on the 24th of January last. I was
shortly afterwards taken ill, and consequently did not
discover until August last that my name had never
been entered at either the Inner or Middle Temple,
but that he had entered his own name instead.
Mr. Lewis cross-examined the witness with the
view of ascertaining if there bad not been some other
money transactions between the parties, but the only
facts elicited were that he had occasionally lent the
prisoner smaller sums, including 31, one Saturday,
to enable him to go to Brighton.
The prisoner instructed his solicitor to put other
questions to the witness, but they were so obviously
irrelevant or untrue, that:Mr.Lewis felt it his duty to
abandon the defence.
Mr. Clarkson said he should call witnesses to prove
that the name of Mr. Judd had not been entered upon
the books of either of the societies, and if a remand
was granted it would be probably in their power to
show, by other evidence, that the exact money paid
by Mr. Judd had been used by the prisoner to place
his own name on the books instead of that of the pro-
secutor.
Mr. Robert Scott, assistant-treasurer of the Inner
Temple, produced the book containing the names of
the students of the society, and stated that no person
of the name of "Francis Judd" was included in the
list. The name of " Charles Appleby" appeared in
the book, and witness identified the prisoner as
having entered his name on the 24th of January,
and paid the sum of 35/. 63. 51 He entered into the
usual bond, and had since kept his terms. The 35/.
was paid in bank-notes, and it might be possible to
ascertain their numbers from the bankers, Messrs.
Gosling and Co. The prisoner could not be called to
the bar until three years after the date of his admis-
sion as a student. Dr. Lushington is the present
treasurer of the Inner Temple. Witness did not
know any person of the name of " Compton" in the
office.
Mr. E. Eldred, the sub-treasurer of the Middle
Temple, proved that no student of the name of
" Judd" was admitted as a student of that inn at the
time in question. The prisoner was not a barrister of
the Middle Temple nor a student. Mr. H. Long-
manna is the current treasurer, and no one of the
name of " Compton" is known to the office.
Baldwin, 273, City police, stated that he appre-
hended the prisoner in Newgate-street, on Saturday
afternoon, by the direction of Mr. Judd, who called
him for that purpose. The prisoner, on being told
that he was charged with obtaining money under
false pretences, asked Mr. Judd to settle it in another
way for the sake of his child. He said, "It is a pri-
vate matter and ought to he settled privately." Mr.
Judd declined, saying that he would not compromise
a felony.
The prisoner, on being asked for his reply to the
charge, stated that he had only been able to have a
few moments' conference with his solicitor in the
cell, and, by his advice, he should reserve his defence.
It appeared that the prisoner was also liable to
prosecution for forgery, but there was no wish to
proceed against him on the more serious charge.
Mr. HENRY remanded him for further examination
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

accordingly proceeded to the spot whence they pro-
ceeded, when he saw the prisoner lying on the com•
plainant in a very disgusting position. She was
struggling very hard to get up. Witness immediately
seized hold of the prisoner and called out for assist-
ance, when a police•constable came up and secured
him. The poor girl became insensible, and it was
some time before she recovertd sufficiently to give him
in charge. She then detailed the whole of the cir-
cumstances.
James Nunn, police-constable 238 L, said about
eleven o'clock on Sunday night he was on duty near
the New-cut when he heard cries for assistance, anti
proceeding in their direction he saw the prisoner is
the custody of last witness. He gave him in charge
for assaulting the woman, who was in a very bad
state. Her clothes ware much torn and very dirty.
The prisoner's dress was in a disordered state.
The prisoner said in defence, that about half-past
ten on Sunday night he met the complainant near
the railway-station in the Waterloo-road. She came
up to him and said, " Old fellow, you seem rather
lushy." He replied, peril:Ts he was; when she asked
him to treat her. He told her that he would not at
present. She then asked him the way to the Yol lr-
road, and they both walked along Granby-street.
When they got to the end of the place she stole his
pocket-handkerchief, and when he took it from her
she screamed, which brought a man to the spot, who
collared hi;-n and gave him into custody. He denied
having assaulted her in the manner described.
James Bridge was recalled, and asked by the ma-
gistrate whether he saw the prisoner in the po,ition
he had described ? The witness replied that such was
the case; there was no truth whatever in the pri-
soner's statement.
Mr. ELLIOTT said he never heard of a more brutal
and outrageous assault, and the impudent defence set
up by the prisoner aggravated the offence. He should
commit him for trial at the ensuing sessions, where
no doubt be would receive that punishment his cow-
ardly attack so well meri'ed.
He was accordingly committed for trial.
THAMES.
William Smith, van proprietor, of Margaret-street,
Salmon-lane,:Limehouse, was charged with:committing
a most violent assault on t'lary Isabella Pierce, a mar-
ried woman, living at Middle Shadwell.
It appeared from the evidence of the complainant
(whose face exhibited several excoriations which were
still bleeding), and other witnesses, that about three
o'clock that afternoon the prisoner was removing the
goods of a neighbour in a van, which was in the care
of a lad, the servant of the prisoner, when the com-
plainant with some other women got into the vehicle
which they drove about. The prisoner, hearing of
the conduct of the complainant and her friends, seized
hold of the former and dragged her out of the cart.
He afterwards severely lashed her with his whip over
her face and shoulders, and inflicted several deep cuts
on her face and neck. He also commenced a similar
attack on the other women, who were, however, as-
sisted by their friends, and as they were about to re-
taliate on the prisoner, he ran away and go; into a
house for protection.
The prisoner, who admitted that he had exercised
much unnecessary severity, was fined 205., or in de-
fault 14 days' imprisonment.
HAMMERSMITH.
Levy Le Grand, aged 51 years, who stated that
he was a teacher of languages, but a physician by
profession, residing at 2, Ann's-place, Queen-street,
Hammersmith, was brought before Mr. Paynter,
charged with decoying and indecently assaulting a
boy, named Richard Wilding, aged 11 years.
There was a second case against the prisoner of
assaulting a girl, named Rachael Harris, of tender
years.

- The proceedings created considerable interest in a
crowded court, but are unfit for publication.
Mr. PAYNTER said he should remand the case for
a week and would take bail for his appearance,
himself in 2001., and two good securities in 1001.
each. He should require 24 hours' notice of the bail.
The prisoner was then removed to the House of
Detention in the police van.
James Broggeriff, the landlord of the Ennismore
Arms public-house, near Princes•gate, Kensington,
appeared on two summonses, taken out by Mr. John
Eiger, the extensive builder, for having unlawfully
and maliciously destroyed a turnstile or tollgate, and
with assaulting William Foley in the execution of
his duty.
The question turned upon the right of way upon a
pathway to the defendant's premises. It was stated
by Mr. Lewis that the estate called Princes-gate
estate had been purchased of the Earl of Listowel by
Mr. Eiger, for building purposes. The defendant's
house had been erected about five years, and the land
belonging to it was private property. There was no
thoroughfare, and a gate was locked at ten o'clock at
night. The defendant had applied to Mr. Elger in
January last to have the gate kept open until twelve
o'clock at night for the convenience of his customers.
Mr. Eiger refused, and in July last a turnstile was
erected, by the desire of the inhabitants, for the
purpose of preventing the passing of too many per-
sons, as they very naturally might do, as the road
from the pathway leads to the transept entrance
of the Exhibition. A penny was charged for each
person, and Mr. Eiger did not place the proceeds in
his private purse, but presented the money to Sr.
George's Hospital. The defendant and his servants
were allowed a free passage, and ware exempt from
the toll. The defendant, however, considered the
pathway a public thoroughfare, and on the 13th inst.
he and his servant proceeded to destroy the tollgate,
which was the subject of the present complaint.
Mr. John Eiger and his clerk proved the pathway
to be private property, and produced the lease of the
estate.

Mr. Martin contended that the pathway in question
was dedicated to the public, and was therefore public
property.

-Mr. PAYNTEE said he always thought the pathway
was a private one, but before he gave any decision he
would visit the place and refresh his recollection.
Mr. I\Lirtin said he could call witnesses to prove
that the pathway bad been in existence for 20 years.
After some further conversation the parties arranged
the dispute.

Mr. PAYNTER agreed to allow the summons to
stand over for a month, and in the meantime Mr. Ei-
ger promised the defendant eight tickets, to allow
himself, family, and servants to pass through the
turnstile free of payment.

CHRIST'S HOSPITAL.
The annual recitation by the scholars of this ancient
foundation, better known as the Blue Coat School,
takes place usually on the 21st of September, marked
in the calendar as St. Matthew's Day, but as that
festival fell this year on Sunday, the more secular
business of the recitations, &c., was pcstponed till
yesterday, when a large concourse of the parents and
friends of the pupils, to the number of at least 2,000
persons, assembled in the finely antiquely decorated hall
of the hospital. The boys, to the number of 700, were
ranged at the east end of the hall, on either side of the
great organ ; and as every other part of the building
was crowded to excess with the company, consisting
chiefly of ladies, the effect of the scene was unusually
animating.
The Lord Mayor presided on the occasion, attended
by the Sheriffs, Aldermen Farncomb, Sydney, Carden,
and W. Hunter, and the Common-Sergeant.
About one o'clock the business of the day com-
menced, when recitations on the following subjects
were delivered by the under-mentioned scholars :
Latin Oration, on the Benefits of the Royal Hos-
pitals—Henry Dove Sweeting, third Grecian and
mathematical medallist, 1851.

English Oration, on the same Subject—Gilbert
Wilson Brown,:first Grecian and Times scholar, who
is proceeding to Emmanuel College, Cambridge.
French Oration, on the same Subject—George
Charles Bell, second Grecian and classical medallist,
1851, who is proceeding to Lincoln College, Oxford.
Latin Alcaics, on " Columbus"—Claude Hubert
Parcz, twelfth Grecian.

Greek lambics, translation of the Chief Justice's
Apology and King Henry's Reply, from Shakspere
—Henry Bawden Parkin, sixth Grecian.
Latin Elegiacs, on " Lucretia"—Hadarezer Henry
Stone, tenth Grecian.
Greek Sapphics, on " Queen Elizabeth"—John
George Gauntlett, seventh Grecian.
Latin Hexameters, translation of "Scepticism," from
Campbell's " Pleasures of Hope"—John Wilberforce
Doran, eighth Grecian.
Latin Sapphics, on " England's Invitation to the
Nations"—Henry Rogers levers, eleventh Grecian.
English Ode, on "Rome "—Henry Ludlow, ninth
Grecian.

We may mention that there was also to have been
a Greek oration on the benefits of the Royal Hos-
pitals, but the young gentleman who was to havo de-
livered it (Ft. A. Lloyd, fifth Grecian) was unfortu-
nately absent from ill health. The orations that were
delivered were given with great effect and animation
and it was evident that the young reciters entered
heartily into the spirit of their respective themes.- In
the English oration, Mr. Brown made a graceful allu-
sion to the Christ Church scholars, who, proceeding
from the school last ear, had borne off the following
honours from Cambridge University during the last
session there :

Williams-sth of the first class of the clas,?,ical
;ripos.
Searle-10th Wrangler.

Hammond—specially mentioned by the examiners
for Davies's University Scholarship, as nearly equal
to the successful competitor.
Townsend-2d B ,11's scholar.
Ile also alluded, as did se ze,•al of the other reciters,
to the lamented death of Mr. Hothain Pigeon, the
treasurer of the school, who had died ihithin the past
year.
After the recitations, according to time-honoured
custom, the "glove" was sent round among the
visitors, to collect subscriptions for the young gen-
tleixtou proceeding to college, and we believe there
