SIR WILLIA3I FERGUSON, BART., F.R.S., &C.
ames's H
—The annual festival of the old students of King's Col-
J lege Hospitaall, l took place on Thursday evening, at St.
Regent-street, Dr. Druitt in the chair. The
affair was rendered more interesting than on former occa-
sions, in consequence of the presentation of a superb testi-
monial to Sir William Fergusson, in acknowledgment of
the high estimation in which he is deservedly held by the
former and present pupils of King's College, many of whom
attended
from distant parts of the provinces.

LAW INTELLIGENCE--This Day.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice Lush and a
Special Jury.)
CANNON V. DIGBY.

This was an action brought by Emily Cannon to recover
compensation and damages from defendant, in breach of
contract. _ .

From the opening statement of counsel it appeared that
the defendant, in conjunction with another party, under-
took to print a paper called the Croydon Free Press.
This paper had,; been transferred to her by her brother,
Mr. Thomas Cannon, a gentleman of long standing on the
London Press, and according to the statement of the
learned counsel, a person of great skill, tact, and ability in
matters relating to newspapers.- The defendant and his
partner did not carry out their Contract by printing the
paper in its usual style, and the defects in reference to the
same became so numerous that advertisers were induced to
withdraw thour advertisements from the paper to the great
loss of the proprietress.
Tho witness for the plaintiff not being in attendance,
owing to the case having come on unexpectedly early, it
was arranged between counsel that the plantiff should be
non-suited. We aro informed that an application will be
mado to replace the case on the record.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
(Sittings at Nisi Prins, Guildhall, before Mr. Justice
Byles, and a Common Jury.)
KEMP Y. HARRIS.-BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE AND

SEDUCTION.
The hearing of this case, which commenced yesterday,
was resumed this morning.
It appeared that the plaintiff is about twenty-three or
twenty-four years, and the defendant twenty-seven years
old. He was a publican, and proprietor of the King's
Head, Newington Butts. The plaintiff had been en-
gaged by him as barmaid and entered his service last year,
and, she being a person of attractive appearance, he " fell
in love " with her, and by letters he had written in respect
to her it was evident that at ono time he seriously con-
templated making her his wife. However he succeeded in
seducing her, and then refused to perform his promise.
At the close of the case this morning, the jury, without
leaving the box, found a verdict for the plaintiff, and
assessed the damages at .£l5O.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Cuiuous CASE.—John Wm. Parker, a respectable-look-
ing man, butler to Mr. Harrison, of No. 40, Bryanston-
square, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being in
possession of a silver tankard much battered and defaced,
and not being able to give a satisfactory account of the
same.
Police-constable Irwin, 218 C, said that from informa-

tion ho received he stopped the prisoner in Duke-street,
Grosvenor-square, with the broken tankard produced in his
hand. On asking him how he became possessed of it, ho
said that it was left him by his aunt 16 years ago, but that
ho had shown it to no one, and kept it locked in his box
all the while, and that the reason why he had filed the
name and crest off was because he wished to ascertain
whether it was silver or not. Not being satisfied with tho
prisoner's story he took him to the station.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constable said the pri-
soner was a butler at 40, Bryanston-square, and on making
inquiries there ho ascertained that the plate was all correct.
The prisoner sail that he told the constable that the tan-
kard was left him by his uncle, and not his aunt. He was
living at the time at Alderman Carden's, in Wingate-
street, and his uncle, who had been a butler for many years
to a gentleman at Romford, left him the tankard, and
his brother a horn. It being very old and worn, ho
knocked it up and went to see whether it was silver.
Mr. Mellish, pawnbroker, of Duke-street, Grosvenor-
square, said he was the person who gave information to
the constable. The prisoner brought the property to his
house, and he refused to receive it, and sent for a con-
stable.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would take one bail in £lO for the
Prisoner's re-appearance in the week, and he could then
produce any witnesses he might think proper.
DARING STREET ROBBERY.—William Brown, described
as a seaman, address refused, was charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with stealing a gold watch and chain of tho value of
£5B, the property of Luca Passasso, a courier residing at
21, Bury-street, St. James's.
The prosecutor was crossing Lower Regent-street into
Jermyn-street last night about 12 o'clock when the pri-
soner passed him and rushed back and snatched his watch
and chain from him and ran off. He was pursued and
taken to the station, and on the way he told the constable,
830 A, that he was innocent of the charge, but while being
searched at the station he dropped the watch and chain
down the leg of his trowsers and put his foot on them.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner to give tho police
an opportunity of making inquiries respecting him.
