Sarah Cooper having proved the above facts, was
Cross-examined by the Prisoner—l did not meet
you in Gresham-street, City, and drink sherry with
you. I dined with some friends of my husband in
Gresham-street. I did meet you in Gresham-street,
but you did not ask me to come and take some re-
freshment. I did not say that Arthur has got into
a nice trouble, and ask you (the prisoner) if you
could make some arrangement as to coming and
living with me. I did not leave my husband for a
week in 1866. I did not say that if you would "go
with me I would make every arrangement for our
going to Paris together. I did not write to Paris
for that purpose. I came home at half-past nine on
the Friday night, and there was a blind lady sitting
in the room. That was the person who lived in the
house. I did not say that I was sorry that I had
kept you waiting so long. I did not tell the blind
lady to leave the room, because I wanted to speak
to you alone. The blind lady did not say I know
what the gentleman has come for, and you need not
care about me. I did not say, "No ; I want to
speak to the gentleman alone." I did not ask you
at once to make up your mind to go with me
to Paris. I did not say that I could get the
money required from Mr. Williams, a bet-
ting-man, who always told me when I was in want
of money to apply io him. I did not go away in a
cab to meet him that evening. I did not have sup-
per with you that evening. I had supper that even-
ing but not with you. I had supper with a friend
before I returned home. That was not the occasion
when you left me. I did not come into your bed-
room at three o'clock iu the morning and get into
bed with you. I did not say that when a gentleman
sent in his resignation that 1 would go with you,
and that you should never want for money. I did
not say, when I was dressing my hair in the morn-
ing, " What beastly links you have got in your
shirt. Here are a pair of Arthur's, and you can take
them and wear them." I did not say that I was
going to Billingsgate market to sec a friend, and
that I should be back at eight o'clock. I did not
give you a collar belonging to Athur because I said
the one you were wearing was very dirty. I did not
say when you said that if I was to remain with you
that you must go home to your lodgings and get
some under linen ; and I did not say there is no
necessity for you to do so, as you can have some of
Arthur's. I went with you to the Zoological Gar-
, dens in the Regent's Park. I went with you into the
gardens. You took four letters, and gave them to
the man at the gate to post. I did not give you
any money at the Zoological Gardens to post the
letters. I was in the Zoological Gardens for two
hours. When I asked you about the letters you
said, " They were half way on their journey." When
before the magistrate I did not know the place I
went to was the Zoological Gardens. When I was
in the Zoological Gardens you left me there, and
you said that you had to go and give a lesson. I
purchased a duck for Sunday's dinner, and gave 3s.
for it. You bought some grapes, but you ate them
all yourself. On Saturday you came home to tea
with me. I did not sit upon your lap, put my arms
round your neck, and say that I loved you better
than any other man in the world. I asked you why
you looked so sad, and I asked you to speak out like
a gentleman if you intended to assist me in my
trouble. You did not say that you could not fall in
with my ideas—that was to go away with me to
Paris—because you were a married man. I never
asked you such a thing. I did not ask you to take
a cab, and that I would go anywhere with you that
night. I did not ask you if you had made up your
mind to go away with me. I did ask you home to
take tea with me, where Mr. Williams and some
other friends were to be. I did not say that they
were friends of Arthur's, and you were to say that
you were the schoolmaster at the prison, and what-
ever I said you were to answer me.
The Assistant-Judge summed up the evidence,
and the jury, after a few minutes' consultation, re-
turned a verdict of guilty.
Mr. Sach, superintendent of police at Sudbury, in
Suffolk, said the prisoner was tried there in 1861,
before Baron Martin, for robbery, and previous
convictions being proved against him, he was sen-
tenced to be kept in penal servitude for five years.
He was liberated with a ticket-of-leave in Decem-
ber, 1864. At that time he made accusations against
him that he had neglected to apprehend him for a
long time, although he knew perfectly well where
he was to be found. There were two other convic-
tions proved against him. The prisoner's real name
was William Gladwell, and he was born at Brox-
ford, in Suffolk.
The Assistant-Judge—After what we hear cf your
former career, it is startling that such a man should
have the assurance to attack the character of a re-
spectable married woman, to whom, in the absence
of her husband, you have acted as a great scoundrel.
If there were a scintilla of truth in what you have
said in endeavpuring to degrade her, your conduct
would be villainous, and its villainy is increased by
the defence you have bad the hardihood to set up.
When we hear that you attacked in a similar man-
ner the Superintendent of Police at Sudbury we
have no hesitation in imposing the full amount of
punishment which the law permits, and we are only
sorryit is not greater. You must be kept in penal
servitude for five years. As far as my opinion goes,
the prosecutrix leaves the court unstained and un-
sullied in her character. The property was ordered
to be restored to 'Mrs. Cooper, and it is only fair to
say she answered frankly in the negative the im-
putations suggested by the prisoner's speech, when,
in cross-examination, he put those matters cate-
gorically to her.

MR. BRIGHT, M.P., ON THE RATEPAYING
CLAUSES OF THE REFORM BILL.—Mr. Bright has written a
letter to Mr. Warburton, of Salford, on the obstacles
which the ratepaying clauses of thu new Reform
Act are supposed to present to the enfranchisement
of the occupiers of small tenements. The hon. gentle-
man points out that it is not necessary that the rates
should be paid directly by the occupier, and "the system
of payment by the owner need not be disturbed if he will
undertake to pay the full rate on all his occupied property,
making an arrangement with his tenant in the matter of
rent." He holds that, except in cases where the rent has
hitherto been below the market value, it must be impossible
for cottage owners to maintain the existirg rent and at the
same time throw the rate upon the tenant, for such a course
would bring about its own remedy by causing an extensive
cottage building, which would soon bring rents down again
to their natural level.
