LAW INTELLIGENCE.—Jan. 11

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Sittings in Banco, before Lord Campbell and. Jus-
tices Wightman, Crompton, and Hill.)
SCULLY V. INGRAM.
Mr. Bovill applied to the Court to enlarge the
time for moving on behalf of the defendant for a
new trial. He said the action was brought by Mr.
Vincent Scully against Mr. Herbert Ingram, M.P.
for Boston, for fraudulently representing that he
was the owner of the Castle Hyde estate, in the
county of Cork, whereby the plaintiff said he was
prejudiced by being prevented from enforcing the
payment of £9,000 owing to him by the late John
Sadleir, and by losing the advantages of the estate.
At the trial there was very little evidence to show
how Mr. Ingram could have been benefitted by the
alleged misrepresentation,.or what motive he could
have had in making it. The jury, however, gave
a verdict for the plaintiff with £3OO damages.
They came into court twice, and said that they
could not agree ; and it appeared that half, or a
certain number of them, were not prepared to find
that the defendant was an accomplice with Sadleir
in the fraud.
Lord Campbell--They stated the ground of their
doubt—viz., whether Mr. Ingram acted as an ac-
complice with Sadleir in the fraud; but I appre-
hend that they had no doubt as to his having been
engaged with Sadleir in the scheme to deceive Mr.
Scully.
Mr. Bovill then said that the transaction tcok
place in 1853, and that at the trial a mass of corre-
spondence was produced by the plaintiff for the
first time, of which the defendant was entirely
ignorant, and that the Lord Chief Justice kindly
adjourned the cause early on the first day, that he
(Mr. Bovill) might have an opportunity of perusing
it. Before the trial the defendant applied for leave
to administer interrogatories to Mr. Scully, which
was refused ; and the defendant never received the
usual notice to inspect and admit these letters,
Which were for the first time brought to his notice
at the trial. Since the trial the defendant has
taken every means in his power to obtain infor-
mation as to the truth of the evidence given
at the trial. Mr. Bovill then went through the
affidavits to show what Mr. Baxter, the
solicitor of Mr. Ingram, had done to obtain
an inspection and examination of the papers of the
late John Sadleir, in the possession of Mr. Norris,
of Bedford-row; Mr. Doyle, the secretary of Mr.
Sadleir ; and Messrs. Morrogh and Kennedy, soli-
citors of Dublin. It appeared that Mr. Scully was
desirous that Mr. Ingram should have every par-
ticle of information that existed in connexion with
the case. There was a mass of papers that the de-
fendant's solicitor had not been able to examine at
present, but an entry had already been discovered
m the books of Messrs. Morrogh and Kennedy,
under the date of June 28, 1853, to the effect that

they had received instructions to prepare an out-
line of the Castle Hyde estate, with a view to its
sale to Mr. Dargan, and that there had been an at-
tendance upon Mr. Scully in respect thereof. If
that be correct, said Mr. Bovill, there is an end of
the plaintiff's case, as Mr. Ingram had abandoned
the purchase in May, 1853, and Mr. Scully in the
June following was dealing with the estate as his
own.
Mr, Justice Crompton—You can use that dis-
covery on the motion for a new trial.
Lord. Campbell—And for the present motion it is
quite irrelevant.
Mr. Bovill—We have asked for the papers re-
ferred to in that entry, and we want an opportunity
of examining them, as well as the other papers of
the late Mr. Sadleir. This is a question as to Mr.
Ingram's maintaining his position in society and
his character for integrity and honour.
Lord Campbell—Mr. Ingram was engaged in
various transactions with Mr. Sadleir. I believe
Mr. Ingrain stands in a most respectable position
In society, and that his character was never im-
peached until this unfortunate transaction.
Mr. Justice Wightnian—ls there any precedent
for postponing a motion for a new trial in the hope
of obtaining additional evidence ?
Mr. Bovill mentioned the case of the " Duke of
Brunswick."
Mr. Justice Hill—The language of the rule of
court is very strong,—that the motion must be
made within the first four days of term,—and there
is no exception engrafted on it to let in an applica-
tion like the present.
Lord Campbell—You had better be content with
the intimation that this application cannot be
granted, and that we desire to say nothing to
. prejudice your motion for a new trial.
L Application refused.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE, Jan. 11.

GUILDHALL.—George Gibson, who is charged
with being concerned in the burglary and robbery
of plate, money-, and jewellery, to the value of about
£2,000, committed in 1856 at the house of Mrs.
Humphreys, a widow lady 80 years of age, residing
at Stamford-hill, was again examined relative to
that charge.
Mr. Lewis, jun., appeared for the prosecution;
and Mr. Beard, of Basinghall-street, conducted the
defence. _ _ _

Eliza Cook, the young person whose hands and.
feet were tied by the burglars on the morning of the
robbery, was recalled, and said,—l produce a silver
watch which I saw my mistress wearing on the
evening previous to the robbery.
Mr. Lewis—When you went upstairs in the
morning and found your mistress half-smothered
had she that watch about her ?

Eliza Cook—She had not, sir. She usually wore
it on a tape round her neck, but the tape was cut
and the watch gone. •
Alderman Humphery—Had your mistress any
other watches in her possession at the time ?
Eliza Cook—Yes, sir. She had two gold watches,
which were taken from a drawer.
Alderman Humphery—Where did you 'get this
watch ?
Mr. Lewis—lt was taken from a warder named
Payton, belonging to the Stirling Castle convict
ship, from which the prisoner and a man named
Slark were discharged.
Alderman Humphery—But how did it get into
Mrs, Humphreys's possession again ?
Eliza Cook—lt was returned to my mistress after
the trial and conviction of Fleckart, and my mis-
tress gave it to me.
Inspector Langdon, of the N division said,—The
burglary took place in April, 1856,' and in the May
following I went down to Portsmouth and obtained
a warrant to search the house of the warder Pay-
ton. I then went on board the Stirling Castle con-
vict ship, whbre I saw Payton.
Alderman Humphery—How long had he been a
warder there ?
Inspector Langdon—About three years, sir.
Alderman Humphery—But he is not a warder
there now, is he ?
Inspector Langdon—No, sir. He has been tried
for receiving this watch knowing 'it to be stolen,
but he was acquitted.. I afterwards want to Payton's
house, and his wife gave me the watch produced in
his presence. I went down to ascertain if a man
named Slark and another man named Elliott were
discharged together, and if a remand is granted I
shall be able to prove that the prisoner is the man
who went by the name, of Elliott.
Alderman Humphery—How will you prove
that ?

Mr. Lewis—l will prove it by Kelly, the officer
from Birmingham, who saw the prisoner convicted
in the name of Elliott.

Mr. Beard—As these questions are put for the
purpose, of a remand, I will just ask Inspector
Langdon a question. Were not all the facts which
you have now stated in your possession on the last
examination ?
Inspector Langdon—They were.
Mr. Beard—Then I contend there is no reason-
able ground for a further remand, as the prosecution
have had ample time to get the evidence they now
say they require.
Mr. Lewis—lt is trifling with justice to object
to these remands. This robbery took place two
years ago, and I have to trace out the witnesses,
who are scattered in all directions.
Mr. Beard—The Newgate Calendar will give you
the names of every one examined on the trial of
Fleckart.
Mr. Lewis—But it is two years ago, and the
difficulty now is to find them. I shall on another
occasion be prepared with two most important
witnesses that I cannot produce at present.
Mr. Beard—lt was intimated on the last occasion
that a former conviction would be proved against
the prisoner, but there is no evidence of it.
Inspector Langdon—l have "a letter here about it.
Alderman Humphery then read the following
letter :

"Convict Prison, Lewes, Jan. 10, 1859.
" Sir,—Your letter to the Governor of Portsmouth Con.
vict Prison has been forwarded to me. In reply to your
inquiry, I have to inform you that George Elliott was con-
victed at Birmingham, March 17, 1852, of stealing a horse
and dog-cart, and was sentenced to 10 years' transporta-
tion. Henry Slark was convicted at Maidstone 17th [of
March, 1851, of maliciously wounding, with intent, &c.,
and was sentenced to 10 years' transportation.
" Both the above-named convicts were released on license
from the Stirling Castle hulk, Gosport, on the 31st of
March, 1856,

" Warder Payton, of the Stirling Castle, was tried in the
same year at the Central Criminal Court for receiving a
silver watch, the produce of a burglary, but was acquitted
of guilty knowledge.—l am, sir, &c."
This letter was signed by the Acting Governor,
and addressed to Inspector Langdon.'
Mr. Beard—l submit, sir, that is no evidence
that this prisoner was ever convicted.
Inspector Foulger, of the City force—We have
traced the prisoner from his conviction at Birming-

ham, in the name of Elliott, in 1852, to Millbank
prison in the same year, and from there to Portland
prison in 1853, and in act up to his discharge from
the Stirling Castle.
Alderman Humphery—What has become of
Slark ?
Mr. Beard—lt has been intimated that he is in
America ; but you must bear in mind, sir, that
Slark has never even been tried for this robbery,
so that there is no evidence that he was implicated
in it at all.
Mr. Lewis—The latest advices inform us that
Slark is keeping a rat-pit in America.
Alderman Humphery—Here is a description of
Elliott in the letter addressed to Inspector Foulger
by the Governor of the Birmingham Borough
Prison :—Age, 25 ; height, 5 feet 41 inches ; com-
plexion, fair ; brown hair ; light hazel eyes, and
long visage, marked with the small-pox.
An officer present said the prisoner answered to
that description. •
Prisoner—You had better put a rope outside and
hang me at once.
Alderman Humphery—You will hang yourself
the way you•are going on.
Prisoner—Well, you raay as well hang me, for
all the justice I shall get here.
Alderman Humphery—You shall have justice.
The Government have already given you two
chances.
Prisoner—Two chances ! The Government never
gave me a chance at all.
Alderman Humphery—lt is proved you were
convicted in the name of Elliott, and transported
for 10 years ; but you have been liberated long
before your term expired.
Prisoner—Well, if I was, it has nothing to do
with this case.
Alderman Humphery—But this young woman
swears that you were the man whose mask fell off
while tying her feet on the morning of the robbery.
Prisoner—She cannot say that before God and
man.
Alderman Humphery—But she has said it.
• Mr. Lewis—Fleckart, whose sentence was death
recorded, made the same asseveration.
Alderman Humphery—l suppose, Mr. Beard,
you are going to prove that the prisoner was not
there at all.
Mr. Beard—Certainly, sir. lam instructed that
it will be proved beyond a doubt that he was else-
where when this robbery was committed.
Alderman Humphery—lt is a very serious case,
and I shall remand the prisoner for another week,
for the production of further evidence.

BOW-STREET.—Three soldiers, named Thos.
Fuller, Charles Orton, and George Hayller, the
two first being corporals and the third a private in
the Ist battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, were
charged with stealing a £2O check, forging an in-
dorsement thereon, and uttering it.
The case for the prosecution was conducted by
Morgan (Humphrey, Son, and Morgan), who had
been instructed by Mr. F. Ouvry, solicitor to the
Scots Fusilier Guards. Mr. Morgan explained that
the check in question had been enclosed in a letter
to the quartermaster of the regiment, for the pur-
pose of paying for the discharge of a soldier named
Thripland ; but Mrs. Coutts, the lady who had
sent the remittance from Edinburgh, had addressed
the letter to Mr. Walter Allan instead of Mr.
George Allan, which was the name of the quarter-
master. It consequently miscarried, and got into
the hands of the prisoner Fuller, who, after keep-
ing it five days, opened it, and abstracted the
check, which he handed to the prisoner Hayller
for the purpose of getting it cashed. The check
was accordingly presented on Christmas-eve by
Hayller, who was accompanied on that occasion by
Orton, and who signed the document with the
name " Walter Allan." Mr. Morgan then called
Mr. C. Turner, cashier at Coutts's Bank, who
stated that on Christmas-eve Hayller entered the
bank, accompanied by another soldier, and handed
him the check now produced, which was an order,
in the usual form, drawn on Messrs. Coutts and
Co. by the Royal Bank of Scotland for £2O, and
dated December, 15. Witness asked Hayller if he
was the person to whom the order was payable, and
on his replying in the affirmative witness 'desired
him to endorse his name on the other side of the
paper. He accordingly wrote down the name
" Walter Allan," and witness handed him the
amount of the check.

The prisoners being asked if they wished to cross-
examine the witness, replied in thenegative,. Orton
observing, "Not at present," and Fuller adding,
"We will reserve our defence till our trial, if we
are to have one." He then turned towards the re-
porters' box and said, " Don't be afraid to put it all
down ; give the right name to it, and write it in
big letters."
Policeman Anscombe, 102 F, the officer on duty
in front of Messrs. Coutts's bank in the Strand, was
then called to identify Orton as the soldier who ac-
companied Hayller oz Christmas-eve. They paused
at the door to ask him if that was Coutts's.

The next witness examined was Sergeant-Major
Edwards. He said,—l am sergeant-major of the
Ist battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards, in which

Hayller is a private. He was absent without leave
from Christmas-eve to the 28th of December. On
the 29th, in consequence of information I had re-
ceived, I sent for him to the guard-room and
questioned him as to whether he had cashed a
cheque at Coutts's Bank. He denied having done
so, but I replied that he had, and. that Corporal
Orton was with him. He exclaimed, " Oh, you
know all about it, then ?" I answered, " I know a
good deal about sit, but I want to know a little
more." He said it was a cheque for money for
Thripland's discharge, and that it was given to him
by an old comrade who was on board ship with him
in the Baltic. I said, " That must be Corporal
Fuller," and he answered, " That's the man." He
also said he gave ss. to Orton, and had spent the
rest. I then sent for Orton, who acknowledged
that he had been with Hayller to cash the cheque,
and said Rayner had given him £B, but that he had
got none of it now. I then sent for Fuller, and I
asked him if he had given Hayller a cheque for
£2O. He said he had. I asked how he became
possessed of that cheque. He hesitated for a long
time, but at last he said he got it out of a letter
that had been delivered to him by the drill sergeant
in waiting, whose duty it is to take letters from the
postman and distribute them in the barracks. He
said he could not find Walter Allan ; that he had
inquired through the battalion ; that he had kept
it by him so long that he was afraid of getting the
censure of the commanding officer for neglecting
his duty in not taking it back to the guard-room
and marking it with the cause of non-delivery ;
and that he then took the liberty of opening it.
He said he found in the letter a cheque for
£2O, and gave it to Hayller. Hayller also
mentioned that Fuller asked him if he was game
to get the cheque cashed, and that he replied he
was game for anything. Hayller also said to the
commanding officer that he received ten sovereigns
and two £5 notes, and that he gave Orton the
notes to 'get changed, and that Orton returned him
only two sovereigns, keeping £8 for himself.
Mr. Jardine—Were the other prisoners present?
Witness—No ; there was only Hayller.
Wm. Shaw, corporal in the battalion, stated that
he was present when the drill-sergeant gave Fuller
the letter addressed to Walter Allan. Fuller showed
it to me, and asked if I knew an Allan. I said there
was an Allan in my company. I called Allan, and
asked if the letter was for him ; and he, said it was
not. The letter bore the Edinburgh postmark.
Mr. Morgan observed that the ' envelope had
never been found.
Witness—l took the letter back to Fuller and
showed him the postmark, observing that I
thought it must belong to some recruit who had
lately joined the regiment at Croydon ; that he had
better try to find the man, but that if he could not,
the only thing he could do was to return the letter
to the sergeant.
Captain Gordon, the adjutant, deposed that on
the 29th"he sent for Hayller and interrogated him.
He said the letter was given him by Corporal
Fuller, and he thought he had a perfect right to it,
being given to him. Witness said he must have
known that it was not for him, and he answered
that he " did not care." He acknowledged going
to Coutts's with Orton t 9 cash the cheque, and at
once gave up the letter in which it had been en-
closed. He said before the commanding officer
that the order was made payable ito Walter Allan,
and was for Thripland's discharge, adding that he
signed it " Walter Allan."
Charles Thripland, a private in tho Ist battalion,
said the cheque was for his discharge. He expected
it. He knew the handwriting. It was that of Mrs.
Day, who wrote for her mother, Mrs. Coutts, an
old lady. He had given no authority to' the pri-
soners to draw money for him, and indeed only
knew them from seeing them during drill here.
Mr. George Allan, the quartermaster, stated that
he was the person for whom the letter was in-
tended. He had never received it, nor authorised
any one to receive it.
At the request of Mr. Morgan, the prisoners were
remanded to afford an opportunity of sending to
Edinburgh for Mrs. Coutts, if her evidence should
he thought necessary to the case, though his wor-
ship expressed a strong opinion that it would be
wholly superfluous.

WORSHIP.STREET.—Thomas Williams, alias
Dutton, twice convicted, and suspected to be a
ticket-of-leave man, and Robert Frost, alias Wil-
liams, also previously convicted, were charged with
burglary and the following outrage :
A lady named Bowers said—l reside at No. 6,
Devonshire-terrate, Victoria-park-road, and -am a
widow. At two in the morning of the 30th Nov.
I was awoke by cries of f Murder:" and "Stop

thief !" and on getting up and looking, out oftthe
window I saw the back of a constable in the front

garden, who was running out through the gate into
the road. I ran into the sitting-room and found
the chiffonier, which I had locked the night before,
broken open, and its contents scattered about the
floor, excepting two decanter-stands, which are now
produced. I also found a window wide open in the
stone passage, and an iron bar which went across
it taken away. At half-past 11 o'clock the night
before I saw the window and the whole of the house
secured. At 4 o'clock the same constable came back
to me, bleeding profusely from the head, and
showed me the decanter-stands produced, and which
I can identify as mine.
Alfred Evershed, 137 N, who, notwithstanding
the length of time that , had elapsed, still pre-
sented a shocking appearance of suffering and
debility, and wore an overcoat which was patched
with blood-stains on almost every part of it, said—
About 3in the morning of the 30th Nov,. while
passing the house, No. 0, Devonshire-terrace, I saw
for nearly 5 minutes a light glaring through the
fanlight over the street door, and then I saw it gra-
dually go out of a blue colour. I found the front
garden gate fast, and also that, of the next house,
No. 5, but that of No. 4 was open, and I entered
and went across the gardens to No. 6,the area door
of which was fast. I turned my light down the
garden towards South Hackney Church, and then
turned it out while I got on the wall to try the
wicket gate leading to the back garden, but found
that fast too. I then examined the wall for nails,
and on again turning my light off saw Williams
through the staircase window, coming down stairs
with a candle in his hand. He was dressed in a suit
of black with a black hat, and I thought he was
master of the house. I jumped off the wall; and
was getting to the house, when I saw a window
open sufficiently large to admit a lad. On reaching
the back of the house I found the door ajar, and on
entering the passage saw Williams on the last step
but one, opposite the front 4ritchen. lat once
caught him by the throat, and turned my light
into the kitchen, where I saw Frost, dressed like a
midshipman, standing. near a table with plate on it
and with a lighted candle. I called out " Thieves,"
and Frost immediately rushed at me, but I struck
him full with my lamp, and he fell; he rose and ran
at me again, but I repeated the blow with the same
effect ; he got up again, and tried to force himself
between me and the other prisoner, whom I still
held fast, but did not succeed, and then passed
under my arm and got to the area door, which he
tried to unlock, but I struck at him repeatedly with
my lamp and knocked him down. I still held
Williams, but he and Frost both got out into the
area, Frost trying several times to pull the other
man away from me, but when we got to the area
steps I pushed them both down. Frost, however,
got up' and seized me by the belt, which gave
way and let him down behind me, but he got
up and pulled at me by my coat. Williams now
called out " Here it is," and Frost immediately
struck me such a severe blow with something
that my hand has been still ever since, and is so
now. I then hit Williams with my lamp in the
face, and Frost struck me with what I believe to
have been a life-preserver, or iron jemmy, four or
five blows on the hat, which at last came off, and
he then repeatedly struck me on the head with the
instrument, making my head bleed very much in-
deed. Williams by that time had got half way up
the steps, but I got him down them, and he kicked
me several times so severely in the chest that I
have suffered very much from those kicks. Frost
then made his escape, and Williams's neckscarf, by
which I held him, having given way, I snatched at
his shirt-front, but that tore, and he got away into
the next garden and escaped, dropping the two
waiters now produced. I followed him, calling
" Police !" and " Murder !" as loud as I could, but
I was so faint, and was bleeding so profusely, that
I was obliged to cling to the fencing until the ser-
geant came up and assisted me into the lady's
house, when she identified the waiters at once, and
I was then taken to the 'station to give a descrip-
tion of the men. Williams dropped his hat ,while
we were struggling together, and I produce it. I
can swear to both men.
Each prisoner said that he did not wish to offer
any defence, and both were committed for trial.

MARYLEBONE.—Esther Griggs, the woman
charged with throwing her child out of the window
while under the alleged influence of a dream, was
again examined and remanded. A surgeon stated
that the child was not yet out of danger. Lady
Hamilton, in whose service the prisoner has lived
as housemaid, has sent to Mr. Broughton, the magis-
trate, a Post-office order for 10s., and at the pri-
soner's desire the money was given to her husband.

SOUTHWARK.—Catharine Atkins, a middle-
aged woman, residing at No. 18, Revels-row, was
charged with telling fortunes and committing a
violent assault on Mrs. Gardner, the wife of a
tradesman at Mile-end. _

Mrs. Gardner said that Mrs. Hunt was on a visit
to her from the country, and on the previous night
they left,home unknown to her husband, and pro-
ceeded to the prisoner's house. As soon as they
entered, the prisoner asked Mrs. Hunt if she wished
her fortune to be told She replied that she did,
when the prisoner produced a pack of cards, and
demanded ls., which was paid to her by Mrs.
Hunt. They were about then to leave the house,
and as soon as Mrs. Hunt got out the prisoner shut
the door and locked witness in. She then seized her
by the throat, and took up a poker,-saying she
would smash her brains out ; and she was rendered
almost insensible by the violence of the prisoner,
who was at the time under the influence of drink.

The prisoner declared that she never toldfortunes,
and did not receive any money for that. Mrs. Gardner
gave her Bd., with which she fetched gin and cloves
and they all drank it.
Mr. Burcham asked Mrs. Gardner whether she
had any previous knowledge of the prisoner ?
She replied that she once came to her house and
told her husband's fortune. He was silly enough for
that. _ _

Mrs. Hunt said she foolishly accompanied her
friend to the prisoner's house to have their fortunes
told. She gave prisoner ls., when she shuffled the
cards and told her a lot of rubbish.

Mr. Burcham—Are you married ?
Witness—Oh, yes, and she asked me that.
Mr. Bureham—Then I suppose she told you what
colour your second husband was tobe? (Laughter.)
Witness—Yes, sir ;the said he was to be a dark
gentleman, with an immense fortune. (Laughter.)
Mr. Burcham—Did you believe her ?
Witness—Oh no, sir ; I was very foolish.
_ _

Mr. Burcham—There is not any doubt of that;
and it is indeed wonderful to see two respectable
women go to a person of prisoner's description.
Prisoner—We are all acquainted, your worship.
Mr. Burcham (to Mrs. Gardner)—Is that so ?
Mrs. Gardner—l only know her by her coming
to my house to tell my husband's fortnne ; and I
am very sorry that I went to her house last night.
I did not want my' fortune told, and that was the
reason the prisoner attacked me.
Mr. Burcham sentenced her to one month's im-
prisonment for the assault, and another month as a
rogue and vagabond, with hard labour.

[AnvitzisEmENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Sore throat, quinsy, ulcerated throat, diphtheria. The
sore throat, with more or less hoarseness, prevailing at this
season of the year, has for twenty years been treated with
the above remedies with a degree of success far surpassing
that of any other mode of treatment. The cures have been
so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that it was predicted
the new disease, diphtheria, consisting of small ash-coloured
ulcers in the interior of the throat, attended by fever often
fatal, might be arrested by the same means, and such has
been the case. This disease in its first stage seems even
more amenable to Holloway's Ointment and Pills than the
simpler forms of inflammatory sore throats.
