NORWICH ASSIZES, MARCH 27.

A number of cases, principally highway-robberies, were
tried to-day. One case occupied the Court a considerable
time, in which the prosecutor swore positively to the iden-
tity of nne of the prisoners. The several witnesses wider-
went a long cross-examination, but, with this exception,
none of them could swear to the persons of either of the
prisoners. On the part of the defence an alibi was set up
arid established by a number of witnesses; and the evi-
dence to the good character of both was strong and satis-
factory.

The JUDGZ charged et considerable length, observing
very minutely on the contlictirg points of the evidence.
The Jury, after a short consultation, acquitted both
prisoners.
His Loansuir then addressed the prisoners, and told
them that they left the bar without the least imputation on
their characters. The men were both of respectable ap-
pearance, and one of them very much affected during the
trial.

On the assembling of the Court this morning, intelli-
gence was communicated to Mr. Baron GURNEY that
William Houchen, who had been found guilty of sheep-
stealing yesterd,y, but upon whom the Judge deferred
passing sentence, as he said he must consider whether be
should not mike an example of him, was found dead in
his cell last night, having strangled himself with his b.nal-
kerehi-f a little after ten o'clock. A noiPe was head by
the prisoner in the adjoining cell, when he rang the bell,
and the gaoler attended ; but life was extinct. A Coro-
ner's Inquest was held on the body during the day.
