ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

GUILDFORD.

The nomination took place this morning to fill
the vacancy in the representation of this borough
occasioned by the acceptance by Mr. Bovill of the
office of Solicitor-General under Lord Derby's
Government.

Great excitement prevailed, but no serious breach
of the peace occurred.

The usual formalities having been gone through,
the Solicitor-General was nominated by Mr. Elkins
and seconded by Mr. Hoyden.
Mr. Brookes nominated and Mr. Billings se-
conded Mr. Long.
The candidates then severally addressed the elec-
tors, and the show of hands was declared to be in
favour of the Solicitor-General.
A poll was demanded for Mr. Long.

The proceedings were, on the whole, orderly and
comparatively quiet.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—This day.

NEW COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)
THE CHARGE OF PERJURY AGAINST MRS. ALLEN.
This afternoon Ellen Allen, a fashionably-dressed female,
was indicted for having committed wilful and corrupt
perjury.
The prisoner seems about 35 years of ago, with a re-
markably prepossessing appearance. She is what is gene-
rally termed a brunette, with black and shining hair, and
was attired in a mauve-coloured dross, over which she
wore a black lace shawl. On being placed before the
Recorder the prisoner commenced weeping very violently,
and during the greater part of the trial her face was
buried in her handkerchief.
Mr. Poland was for the prosecution, and briefly stated
the case upon which the charge was preferred against
the defendant. The prosecutor is a professional gen-
tleman named Moseley, a dentist, who, it will be re-
membered, was a passenger on the North-Western
Railway, on the evening of the occurrence,
from Pinner to Euston-square, and the only
person travelling in the same compartment as
Mr. Moseley was the defendant. On the way to town Mr.
Moseley asked if the cigar he was smoking was objected
to, when the defendant replied that it was not, but on the
contrary rather agreeable. A slightly animated conversa-
tion then sprung up between Mr. Moseley and the defen-
dant, and on the arrival of the train at the terminus the
prosecutor was astonished by the defendant demanding his
card, and making a charge against him of a very serious
nature. Mr. Moseley protested his innocence, but it was of
no avail, and eventually, after the matter had been
most fully investigated by the magistrate at the
Marylebone Police Court, the then defendant, Mr. Moseley,
was discharged, and from cireumstances that have since
transpired the complainant at the police court has now
become the defendant at the Old Bailey, the charge against
her being wilful and corrupt forgery, committed before the
magistrate. Mr. Poland then entered into the details of
the whole of the case, and said the present prosecution was
of the greatet importance, because as matters now stood
it was highly dangerous for a gentleman to occupy
a seat in any railway carriage in which a lady and himself
would be the only passengers. The man was quite at the
mercy of the woman, and a false charge once made it be-
came almost impossible to rebut it. However, in the pre-
sent case, the defendant had so prevaricated that he fell he
should clearly establish the charge for which she was
indicted.

A number of witnesses were then examined, but their
evidence was merely a repetition of that which appeared in
our Marylebone police report whilst the case was under-
going investigation.

The learned Judge having summed up the evidence,
The jury, without retiring from the box, found the
prisoner guilty, but recommended her to mercy.
The Recouder asked them if it was a unanimous recom-
mendation ?

The Foreman of the Jury—Yes.
The Recorder—On what grounds do you recommend her
to mercy ?

One of the jury said on the grounds that he might have
taken liberties with the prisoner.
The counsel for the prosecuticn then called evidence to
show that the prisoner had been in the habit of frequent-
ing the Victoria Railway Station for the last two years,
for the purpose of entangling gentlemen.
A detective from Scotland-yard said that he had known
the prisoner as one of the worst prostitusateids InEhlalbenitinAgueSnt:
Martin's-lane for the last fifteen years.
The Recorder, in passing sentence,
the jury have found you guilty of ono of the worst
crimes any person could have been guilty of. I always
j kuer
l t
pay the greatest respect to the recommendatiaoysnosuoafb
but in this case lam only sorry that the sentence I '
about to inflict will scarcely meet the enormity of yourli
offence, but the law will not allowbemsehetaodping higher
tears co-
sentence. The sentence of the Court is that
in penal servitude for five yearas.ttohe
bar.
