LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

SECONDAUIES' COURT.
(Before Mr. Potter and a Special Jury.)

PEGLER V. THE SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY,

This was a writ of inquiry sent down from the
Court of Common Pleas, in which the jury were
called upon to assess the damages laid at £2,000
suffered by the plaintiff through an accident on the
defendants' line, defendants having suffered judg-
ment to go by default.

Mr. Digby Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. Clarke ap-
peared for the plaintiff ; Mr. O'Malley and Mr.
Adams representing the company.
Mr. Seymour, in opening the case to the jury,
said that the plaintiff was a clerk in the employ-
ment of the well-known engineers, Messrs. Penn &
Co., of Greenwich, and the accident through which
he had suffered the injuries complained of took
place as far back as Sept., 1866'. It might be no-
cessary to explain to the jury that the great delft),
that had ensued before the action was brought was
caused by the desire of the plaintiff and his friends
to see how far ho was likely to recover from the
effects of the accident. The accident occurred on
the 4th Sept., 1866, and upon that occasion he left
London by the quarter past nine o'clock train to
proceed to Greenwich. While he was being con-
veyed along the line, an engine coming in an oppo-
site direction, ran into the train, and knocked the
carriage in which the plaintiff was travelling off the
line. The plaintiff had been most severely injured,
and was now unable to perform his duties in his ac-
customed way. Medical evidence would be called
he (Mr. Seymour) understood on both sides, for the
plaintiff had been seen by doctors of eminence, both
on his own account and on behalf of the company.
There could be no doubt that the plaintiff had
suffered a severe shock to his nervous system, and
was unable to perform his duties with that ease and
regularity that had been usual with him. One of
his eyes was much injured, and there can be no
doubt that he had been generally permanently
shaken in his system. Under these circumstances
it would be for the jury to say to what damages the
plaintiff was entitled.
The plaintiff was called and detailed the nature
of the accident and its effects upon himself. He
was under examination when this report left, and
the case is likely to last some time.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CLEVER FRUSTRATION OF A PICKPOCKET,—
Joseph Harris, a costermouger, was charged before
Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a pocket-handkerchief
from the person of Mr. W. Brock, of 12, Clarence-
chambers, Haymarket, secretary to the Scottish
Reformation Society.
The prosecutor was passing along the Haymarket
yesterday afternoon when he felt a tug at his coat
pocket, and on turning round saw a portion of his
pocket-handkerchief in the prisoner's hand, the
prisoner not being able to withdraw the whole of it,
the prosecutor, in consequence of having been
robbed of his handkerchief at the same place on
Saturday last, having taken the precaution to sew
the corner of it to the lining of his coat pocket.
The prosecutor secured the prisoner, and handed
him over to Police-constable Lloyd, 151 C.
Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for three
months, with hard labour.
ROBBERY FROM A CAB—Thomas Johnson, de-
scribing himself as a billiard marker, was charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a railway rug
and a parcel of books, the property of Mr. Banks,
of No. 60, Regent's-park-road, from a cab in Regent-
street.

John Wright, of No. 63, New Compton-street,
said that on the previous evening he saw the pri-
soner go up to a cab in Regent-street, and take
out a parcel and a railway rug, and walk away with
them. Ile told the cab►nan, who went after the pri-
soner and brought him back.
Ge,irge Arber, cab-driver, badge 7,797, said that
on being told by the witness that the prisouar had
taken away a rug and parcel which bad been left iu
his cab, he went after the prisoner and brought him
back—the prisoner having got rid of the property--
and gave him into custody.
Richard Kent, 191. C, proved receiving the pri-
soner in custody from the last witness, and said the
parcel and rug were picked up in a doorway, where
the prisoner had thrown them. The prisoner said
that he had no occasion to steal a rug as he had
plenty of money, but only 11. d. was found on him.
There being every reason to believe that the
prisoner has been previously convicted, Air. Tyr-
whitt remanded him for further inquiries.
