COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

,Sittings at Nisi Prius, bef re the Lord Chief judice Ruda

(Special Jury.)
THE QUEEN V. THE MANCHESTER, SHEFFIT:LD, AND
LINCOLNSHIRE RAILWAY COMPANY.

This was an indictment for obstructing they public road
by passengers going and returning from the railway sta-
tions. At the opening address of Mr. Sergeant Knowles
to the jury, counsel on both sides agreed to take a verdict
for the Crown, subject to a special case for the opinion of
the Court.

STEGGLES V. THE GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OV THE NEW

RIVER COMPANY.

This is a claim of damages (C 2) for injury done to the
plaintiff's cellar and house, in Old-street, Whitecross-
street, on the 26th of November last, by the leakage of a
"wooden plug, or bursting of one of the company's pipes,
and overflooding the plaintiff's premises with water. On
taking out the plug in front of the plaintiff's balsa a jet of
water rose 30 feet high.

Mr. Sergeant Hayes and Mr. Charles Polio ek appeared
for the plaintiff.

Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., represented the defelidanLq, who
tried to shift their liability on the parish of St. Luke, and
that the injury done was purely accidental, and that they
were not liable.

The plaintiff's witnes,es proved that the service pressure
on the square inch varied from 131 b. to 181 b., and 101 b. to
251 b. on the main pressure, and did not consUer the plug
used sufficient.
1001 1 I The case is not yet concluded.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. '
(Before Mr. Commissioner Winslow.)
IN RE J. CAMPBELL.

This bankrupt, the well-known manager and popular
actor, now appeared before the Court in quite a new cha-
racter to him, who has hitherto taken the comic parts.
Mr. Beard said that the bankrupt, after having been
many years manager of London theatres, had taken that of
Liverpool, bnt the speculation had turned out very unfor-
tunate to him, who was a considerable loser. The debts
were confined to matters connected with the theatre, and
no creditor offered any opposition.
The bankrupt passed.

The debts are about £250; assets uncertain.
IN RE OWENS.

An adjudication was made, on the appication. of Mr.
Weston, Moorgate-street, against this bankrupt, a contrac-
tor at Dulwich. The debts are stated to be about £3,000,
but the losses are very heavy.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY).

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron Branteß)
TUE MURDER IN DRURY-COURT.

Richard Reeves, 18, basket maker, was indicted for the
wilful murder of Mary Ann Reeves.
The prisoner, who pleaded not guilty, was defended by
Mr. Sleigh.

The evidence offered against the prisoner was the same
as that which was given at Bow-street Police-court, but in
a more condensed form. The material points, for instance,
were the missing of the child, and the finding of her dead
body in the coal-calar of the house in Drury.court, after
the prisoner had sent word home to his father that he had
strangled her with a rope in that place.
Mr. Sleigh did not in any instance cross-examine any of
the witnesses, and, in his address to the jury, said he could
not urge them to acquit the prisoner on the ground of
insanity, but whatever result they might arrive at, he felt
sure they would take the most merciful view of the case.
Baron Bramwell, in summing up, said there was not the
slightest evidence of insanity. Unfortunately the prisoner
had a drunken father, who was subject to delirium tremens,
but that had no bearing whatever on the case.

The jury retired at half-past 12, and in about a quarter
of an hour returned into court. Having answered to their

names,
The Clerk of the Arraigns said—Gentlemen of the jury,
have you agreed to your verdict ?

Foreman—We have.

Clerk—How say you, is the prisoner at the bar, Richard
Reeves, guilty or not guilty ?
Foreman—Guilty; but the jury strongly recommend the
prisoner to mercy, on the ground of his youth and the bad
example set him.
Baron Bramwell—Your recommendation, gentlemen,
shall be sent to the proper quarter immediately.
The Clerk of the Arraigns—Richard Reeves, the jury
have found you guilty of murder ; have you anything to
say why sentence of death should not be passed upon you ?
Prisoner—(who heard the verdict pronounced without
the slightest emotion)—No, sir, I've not.
The Usher then made proclamation for silence during
the passing of the sentence of death, and
Mr. Baron Bramwell, having put on the black cap, said—
Prisoner at the bar, the jury have found you guilty of
murder, and according to the evidence I don't see hew they
could do otherwise. It is now my duty to pass upon you
the sentence of death. The sentence of the Court is, that
you be taken from hence to the place from whence you
came, and from thence to a place of execution, and that you
be there hained by the no* until you be dead, and that
your body be afterwards interred within the precincts of the

prison.
The Rev. Mr. Davies, the ordinary of Newgate, occupied
a seat on the bench in full canonicals, but as the learned
judge did not finish the sentence with the words "and may
the Lord have mercy on your soul," ho did not pronounce
his " Amen" as usual. _ _ _

The prisoner was then removed from the dock,

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Byles.)
STEALING LETTERS.

Samuel Raw, a letter carrier, was indicted for stealing a
letter containing half a sovereign, the property of her Ma-
jesty's Postmaster-General.
The evidence was of the ordinary nature. The prisoner
was a letter carrier in theTottenham-court-road district,
and the letter containing the money he ought to have de-
livered at the address thereon, instead of which he appro-
priated the contents to his own use.
The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and
Mr. Justice Byles sentenced the prisoner to four years
penal servitude.
