LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY)

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
(Before the Lord Chief Baron and a Special Jury.:
IRVIN V. LEVER.

This was an action of compensation for services rendered
and money lent in forming a company caned the Galway
Line of Mail Packets to North America. The defendant
pleaded never indebted.

It a; peared that the parties had entered into a verbal
agreement to form the above company, and the balance-
sheet showed a balanoe in favour of the company of assets,
£317,550 (value of ship, £227,700; Mr. Lever's interest in
the company, valued at £279,856, and £10,000), and the
plaintiff claimed an adequate remuneration for his services
in forming the company according to agreement.
The case was resumed this morning, and the counsel for
the plaintiff, without going before the jury, elected to be
nonsuited.
The plaintiff was nonsuited accordingly.

PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
(Before Sir C. Cresswell and a Special Jury.)
DENT. Y. DENISON.

The question at issue in this case was, whether or not a
will, admitted to have been executed by the late Mr.
Frederick William Dent, the celebrated watch and
chronometer maker, of 61, Strand, was cancelled, the
plaintiff, who is the mother of the testator, alleging that
it was destroyed by his direction.
Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., having finished his address
for Mr. Denison, called that gentleman into the witness
box, and examined him at great length as to his acquaint-
mice and friendship with the late Mr. Dent.

Dr. Partridge, the surgeon of Spring-gardens, who had
attended Mr. Dent in his last illness, was under examina-
tion when we went to press.
The case will not conclude to-day.

POLICE INTELLIG EIV CE-( THIS DAY

MARLBOROUUH-STREET.

MURDEROUS AFFRAY.—Henry Lennox, clerk, a tall,
powerful young man, who gave his address, 66, Mount
Pleasant, Lime-street, Liverpool, was charged before Mr.
Beadon with violently assaulting with tepoker a French-
woman, named Emma Mercier, living at 11, Queen-street,
Golden-square.
Mr. Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for
the prosecutrix, who seemed in a weakly slate and to
have received serious injury.
The prosecutrix said the prisoner came to her house, said
he was a rich man, who had no money with him, but that
he would give her a half-crown. She told him to leave,
when he shut the door, and seizing the poker struck her on
the head with it and also kicked and threw her on a sofa,

breaking it in doing so. She tried to get out of the room

but could not, the ptisoner having injured the lock. He
tried to get out of the window, but could not, and a con-
stable coming in found him singing. She felt very ill, but
had not been to a medical man.

Mary Ann Barclay, living at the same house as the pro-
secutrix, proved going up to her on hearing cries of " Mur-
der ! " but the room door was fastened, and when she did
get in she found the prisoner with a poker in his hand, and
the prosecutrix was bleeding from the head.
IVaterson, 144 C, said that hearing cries of " Murder "
that morning he went to the house, 11, Queen-street. At
the door he found a female, who said, " Oh, policeman,
come upstairs, there's a man killing a woman." He pro-
ceeded upstairs, and there found the prosecutrix bleeding
from a wound in the head lying on the sofa. The prisoner
had nothing in his hand at the time. A female came up-
stairs and said that the prisoner had struck the prosecutrix
on the head with a poker. The prisoner said he wanted to
get out of the house but could not.

By the prisoner--The poker was hot, and your hand was
burnt in 1 hree places.

A formidable stick was here produced belmaging to the
prisoner, found on the floor of the room.

Mr. Beadon said one thing was perfectly clear. The
man was found with a hot poker in his hand, and it was
most probable the woman had taken it out of the fire, and
the prisoner caught hold of it, the assault being made on
him first. The question was what was the nature of the
wound.

Prisoner said the woman locked him in the room, and he
wanted to leave. Sho threw his hat in the fire. He ham-
mered at the door, but no one came. She seized the poker,
and it was in trying to get it from her that bis hand was
burnt. They had a desperate struggle. He went to the
door to try to get out, when she rushed at him again, and
another struggle took place. The blow on, her head was
caused by his warding off a blow, and she then rubbed the
blood over her face and cried " Murder." The constable
then came and he was taken into custody.
Evidence having been given thLt the wound was caused
by something like a poker,
Mr. Beadon, believing there was some truth in prisoner's
statement, fined him 405., or a month's imprisonment.

RIGHT IN HIS RECKONlNG.—Frederick Hamilton, a
young man, described as a copper plate maker, was charged
before Mr. Beadon with stealing an Inverness cape of the
value of 305. from the shop, and the property of Mr. Wm.
Foster Smith, hosier, &c., 8, Coventry-street.
The prisoner was seen by Gordon, 336 A, to take the cape
from the prosecutor's doorway and make off, but being
pursued into Whitcomb-street, was caught by the constable
with the cape, bearing a large shop ticket on it, in his pos-
session. On being brought back the prisoner said he
supposed he should get 6 months for it, and his supposition
turned out correct, for Mr. Beadon sent him to prison for
that term with hard labour, the prisoner as ho was leaving
the deck seeming quite satisfied at the result, and expressing
his intention of " doing it on his head."
