observation is laid down frcm the Museum to Castel
0 vo. I have been informed that this, as well as the
Castel Elmo, have been armed ; into the latter can-
non have, I am assured, been introduced recently,
and none but Piedmontese or regular troops are on
guard. The old custom is again introduced of not
permitting any one to approach ; even those who
work the telegraph on the top are accompanied by
a guard both on leaving and entering the Castle,
and, in the event of bringing any package with them,
they are relieved of it by the guard.
On Tuesday last, in consequence of intelligence
that the house of Liborio Romano was to be as-
saulted by some ruffians, a detachment of soldiers
was ordered down for his protection. All those
precautions, taken by express order of Cialdini, in-
dicated great apprehensions, not in the least exag-
gerated ;but I must tell you that Cantelli, his adla-
tus, General Cosens, and De Blasio, the Secretary-
General of the Interior, do not share his opinions.
I do, and I think that Cialdini is acting with a
most laudable prudence and energy ; it is the affec-
tation of indifference which has ruined us.
The third and last review of the four remaining
battalions of the National Guard took place on Sun-
day in front of the Palace, and it is impossible to
describe the enthusiasm with which Cialdini was
received. Well he merits it, and may Heaven
accompany his efforts with success. Leaving now
the city, I have to tell you that General Pianelli
has been ordered off to Benevento, where the Reac•
tionists, it is said, 4,000 strong, have joined toge-
ther, and perhaps had been destined to march on
Naples. The principal head-quarters are at Colli,
and thence they could march on Naples in eight
hours. Three hundred Reactionists attacked the
regulars near Cancello a few days since and repulsed
them, the latter being in very small force; having
been reinforced in the evening, they rallied and
dispersed the enemy. One or two other cases of
repulse of the regulars, under similar circumstances,
have taken place in other directions. _ .

As you know, her Majesty's ship Exmouth is at
Castellamare, and, as I have several times told you,
Captain Paynter is always exercising his crew,
whom he has brought into a high state of discipline.
Last Friday, however, we had something extraor-
dinary. At half-past 4 o'clock a.m. nearly 500 of
the crew were landed in seven companies, with field
guns, and marched in the cool of the morning two
miles up the mountain, where they bivouacked
under the trees, and then moved down again into
the town. If there were any brigands lurking near
they will have profited by the sight, and will per-
haps refrain from coming into the city as they have
threatened for some time. The landing was effected
in half an hour, and the men moved with great pre-
cision, not a word being spoken in the ranks. Of
course all Castellamare was at the windows to see
the novel sight, while on their return the whole
population were in the streets, apparently astonished
to see the movements of this well-trained body of
men, all armed with rifles. As a man oeuvre it spoke
highly as to the discipline of the men, and as a de-
monstration, I think, has assisted the inhabitants,
who tremble at the prospect of the descent of the
enemy from the hills. Admiral Martin is expected
to-day, and the Exmouth will probably then go
over to Naples to coal. I believe I may state, now
that the fleet, or a portion of it, is withdrawn
from the Syrian coast, that a large force will come
up here. It may as well be here as elsewhere,
and there are obvious reasons why it should be
here, if we mean to back up the kingdom of
Italy with our moral force. If France supports
brigands on the frontier, why should not England
support Victor Emmanuel in the Bay of Naples ?
At all events, such a move will obviate the neces-
sity of any more killing kindness from our Impe-
rial and beloved cousin in Southern Italy. Many
who have watched the course of events here, and
I confess myself to be among the number, are of
opinion that confusion has been promoted here in
order to furnish an excuse for offering assistance.
Deliver us from our friends.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCUIT.-CROYDON, AUG. 17.

(Before Mr. Justice Williams and a Special Jury.)

PAWLE AND OTHERS V. GODING.

This cause commenced on Friday, and it was of
rather an extraordinary character. The plaintiffs
are Messrs. Pawle, Belpage, and Co., solicitors, and
the action was brought by them against Major
Goding, the defendant, to recover a sum of £9O, the
balance of a sum of 4;126 money, which was alleged
to have been supplied by them to Catherine Cod-
ing, the wife, and Evelyn Blanche Goding, the
daughter of the defendant, for their support and
maintenance.
The defendant pleaded that he was never in-
debted, except as to the sum of £36 35., which he
paid into court, and he also pleaded that the said
Catherine Goding was not his wife, but the wife of
one James Dickinson, who was still living, and that
the said Evelyn Blanche Goding was not his lawful
daughter.
Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and
Mr. Butler Bigby, appeared for the plaintiffs ; Mr.
Bovill, Q.C., Mr. J. Browne, and Mr. Freeman
were counsel for the defendant.
Before the cause commenced, Mr. Bovill applied
for a postponements on the ground that Mr. Dickin-
son, whose evidence would be necessary to prove
one of the pleas of the defendant, was too ill to at-
tend. If, however, he said, his learned friend would
admit that the lady had been married to that gen-
tleman, he was ready to proceed.
Mr. Chambers said he should admit nothing.
Mr. Bovill having consulted with his client, said
he would go on without the witness to whom he
had referred.

Mr. Chambers then proceeded to open the case of
the plaintiffs, and he said it was one of the most
painful investigations that was about to be entered
into that he ever remembered in his experience, and
he had hoped to have been spared from stating in a
public court of justice the most distressing circum-
stances under which the plaintiff, Mr. Pawle, was
compelled to bring the present action. The whole
amount originally sought to be recovered was about
£l2O, but a sum of money had been paid into court,
and the amt unt that remained in dispute was only
about £9O, but he thought it right to inform the
jury that the money was not of any consideration,
but the real object that was sought for by the
plaintiff was' to induce Major Goding to do what
was right to his wife and daughter. The defendant
was a man of position and fortune, his income,
as he was informed, being £2,000 a year, and it
appeared that he had resided for a few years
past at the Manor-house, Barham Wood, near
Elstree, and there would be no doubt that he
had lived with the lady, whom he now chose to
say was not married to him, for a great many years,
and that he had introduced her and her daugh-
ter, who, he was instructed, was a most amiable
and accomplished young lady, to the neighbouring
gentry, as his wife and daughter. He would not
enter further into the position of the family during
their residence at Barham Wood, than to state that
it was to be feared that Mr, and Mrs. Goding lived,
latterly, very unhappily, and that in the beginning
of February in the present year the two ;adias left
their home, and proceeded to London. They were
at this time quite penniless, and it appeared that a
son of the defendant, who had left his father's house
some time before, in the first instance, assisted his
mother and sister, and he subsequently introduced
them to the plaintiffs, with whom he had been in
communication in reference to some reversionary
property to which he was entitled. Mrs. Goding
made a statement of her case to the plaintiffs, and
it appeared that in the first instance it was contem-
plated that proceedings should be taken in the Di-
vorce Court against the defendant, and he was com-
municated with by the plaintiffs, and they were
referred by him to his solicitor, Mr. Chapman.
During these proceedin gs the plaintiffs had advanced
different sums of mony to Mrs. Goding, amounting
to £36, and when the plaintiff had an interview with
that gentleman he informed him Of this fact, and
different communications took place with a view to
obtaia some settlement for Mrs. Goding and her
daughter. These negotiations, however, were not
successful, end at last the plaintiff was compelled
to bring tie present action to recover the money he
had paid to that lady and her daughter, almost to
save them from actual starvation ; and then, as it
appeared to him, the terrible point of the case was
this, that the defendant had caused a plea to be
asmhoircoh htehasntatetdmtlahlayt
the
et uwpoonmatnhe rlevchoord,
ford,
years he had held out to the world as
his wife, and his daughter, jwhorn he had intro-
duced to persons of the highest respectability and
position, clergymen, and others in that capacity, had
no right to those titles. He could not conceive
anythizg more dreadful than the issue that was
thus raised by the defendant, for he not only in his
plea asserted that tl;,e lady who had for so many
years lived with him as k:g wife was not so in
reality, bgt was the wife of one ihir yes Dickenson,
who was still living, but that the saidThrfll9
11anche Goding was not his lawful daughter. Ile

did not believe that the defendant would dare to

get into the witness-box and say that the lady was
not his wife, or that a father could act so cruelly

towards his own child as to endeavour to support

• _
such a plea as the one that was upon the record
He regretted exceedingly that a question of this
descriptim should be brought before a public tri-
bunal, and he had hoped that some arrangement
would have been come to that could have obviated

the necessity for a public inquiry. The defendant,
however, it appeared, persisted in defending the
action, and the plaintiffs, therefore, had no alterna
tive but to proceed with the inquiry, but he re-
peated that the object v. as not to obtain the paltry
amount of money involved in the inquiry, but that
Major-General Goding might be induced to do
something for his wife and daughter that would re-
store them to their proper position in society.
Miss Evelyn Blanche Goding, a young lady of
very interesting appearance, was then called as a
witness. She deposed that she was the daughter of
the defendant, and she had resided with him and
her mother at the Manor-house, Elstree, for two

years, prior to January last. Witness was seven-
teen years and a half old, and since she was six
years of age she had always been with the major
and her mother, and looked upon them as her
father and mother. While they were living at
Elstree they used to visit the neighbouring gentry,
and also the clergyman of the parish. She had a
brother three years older than herself, but he had
left home two years and a half ago, and was living
in London. Her brother and her father had
some differences before he left. About January
last her mother and father used to quarrel, and
they did so once or twice in, witness's presence, and
unfortunately upon some occasions they resorted to
personal violence. On the 28th of January, witness
and her mother left home, and proceeded to London
on a visit, and they returned to Elstree about three
o'clock in the afternoon of the 3d of February.
They proceeded up stairs to the room, occupied as a
bed and sitting room, but found the door locked,
and they asked a female servant, named Ashworth,
to go to Major Goding and fetch the key. She
came back in a short time, and said they were not
to have the key of the room, and they both then
left the house, and witness remained that night at
the residence of Mr. Podmore, a clergyman at
Elstree, and her mother stayed at the house of the
pew-opener. On the following morning she and
her mother proceeded to London, where they took
lodgings. Her father had told her before this that
he would turn her out of the house, and that she
should never have a farthing of his money, and he
would burn his will, and all money should go into
the law courts. Neither herself nor her mother
had any money when they arrived in London, and
her brother at first supplied them with some, and
witness and her mother were subsequently intro-
duced to the plaintiff, Mr. Pawle, and he advanced
them different sums of money amounting altogether
to £126 for their maintenance. These supplies
continued from the month of February to June.
Cross-examined—She did not know the exact nge
of Major Goding, but believed he was about 72. She
and her mother latterly, while at Elstree, had a
separate sitting room, as well as bed-room. She did
not believe that her mother was in the constant
habit of getting tipsy. It was likely that she had
sometimes sent the servants out to fetch gin for her,
and sometimes, when they could not get any in the
house, they used to send to the public-house for
beer. On the afternoon in February when they
went to Elstree, they went in a carriage which
stayed for them, and the reason for this was they
had no money to pox for it She was quite sure
that when they asked for the key Major Goding did
not send a message to the effect that they should
have it when they informed him where they had
been. She did not say when the message was sent,
" Come along, mamma, he shall know where we
have been," but the reply she made was, "Very
well, it's no use stopping here; Coins along, dear
mamma shall we go ?" She saw her mother in
Croydon last Wednesday, but she only remained a
short time, and she did not know where she was
now living. Before they came to Croydon they
both occupied lodgings at Pimlico. She had heard
her father say that her mother was tipsy, upon some
occasions, but she did not remember ever hearing
him say that her mother was not a fit companion
for her. Both witness and her brother had rever-
sionary property. Her father, she was aware, had
offered to place her with a clergyman and make her
a liberal allowance, if she would eopsent to leave
her mother, and he had made this offer several
times. Her mother, she believed, had an allowance
of £BO a-year of her own ; and her father, she be-
lieved, had offered to make it up to £2OO a-year if
she would consent not to associate with witness, or
to trouble him. She was not aware that her father
had also promised to pay all the debts her mother
had contracted, if she would consent to be separated
from him and witness. The plaintiff was a stranger
to her when she was first introduced to him, and
her brother took them to his office, in the first in-
stance ; and upon that occasion Mr. Pawle gave her
mother £2O. She believed this was done at the
request of her brother, although she supposed the
money was advanced upon the security of
his reversion. She believed that her brother
had. borrowed money before from the plain-
tiff upon the seine security, and that he
had given him some deed in reference to the
money that was advanced to her mother, and she
supposed that the costs of this action were secured
in the same manner. Her father was notaware that
they were going away in January, and she had
never since that time sought an interview with
him. Most of the money was given to them by Mr.
Pawle, but Mr. 13elpage, his partner, upon some
occasions gave them cheques. Sue believed that the
plaintiff had taken a deed from her brother to se-
cure the repayment of the money when he came of
age. She and her mother used to dine in the bed-
room.
By Mr. Hawkins--They used to have a bit of
boiled fat, which you could not call mutton, and
some potatoes sent up for their dinner. (A laugh.)
Her father used to dine by himself in the dining•
Mom.
By Mr. Bovill—Her brother was not in Croydon.
She believed he came of age on the 15th of July
last, but she was not aware that he executed a deed
on that day, securing to the plaintiff the money he
had advanced.
The Rev. Mr. Plummer, the rector of Elstree, de-
posed that he had been acquainted with the family
of Major G ding since they had lived at Elstree.
The ladies were introduced by Major Goding to him
as his wife and daughter, and they were in the
habit of attending church and visiting other fami-
lies in the neighbourhood in those capacities.
Mr. Chapman, the solicitor to Major Goding,
proved that is February he had a communication
with the plaintiff upon the subject of the assistance
he had rendered to Mrs. and Miss Goding, and was
informed by him that he had at that time advanced
£36, the sum paid into Court. He wrote to the
defendant, awl informed him of all that had taken
place.
In answer to questions put by Mr. Bovill, this
gentleman stated that he knew that Major Galling
had offered Mrs. Godine. £l2O a-year, in addition to
her present allowance of £BO, if she would consent
to be separated from her daughter ; and he was most
anxious to provide for them both, but he would not
do so unless the mother and daughter were sepa-
rated. He told this to Mr. Pawle in the course of
their conversation, and also informed him distinctly
that Major Goding would not sanction any arrange-
ment that was not based upon the footing of the
daughter leaving her mother, whom he considered
an unfit person for her to be with. He also gave
Mr. Pawle clearly to understand that Major Goding
would not be answerable for any more money than
what had been already advanced by him. In the
course of the interviews they had together, Mr.
Pawle talked about instituting proceedings in the
Divorce Court for the dissolution of the marriage,
and to procure an allowance, and witness then in-
formed him that there was no marriage to dissolve,
and he was quite satisfied of this fact from the pe-
culiar manner in which the will of an uncle, Mr.
C. Goding, was worded.
Some documentary evidence was put in, and this
closed the case for the plaintiffs.
Mr. Bovill then submitted that no case had been
made out of either implied or direct authority on
the part of Major Goding for the advance of the
money ; and, on the contrary, it appeared by the
evidence of Mr. Chapman that he was distinctly
told that Major Goding would not be responsible for
more money than what had been advanced up to
February, and that the plaintiff, therefore, had no
legal claim, and must be nonsuited.
Mr. Justice Williams expressed his opinion that
the objection was a goed one, and said he should
certainly reserve the point if necessary. The diffi-
culty as to his directing a nonsuit, however, was the
plea as to no marriage having taken place, and he
did not think he had the power to order a nonsuit
while that plea remained upon the record.
Mr. Bovill said it might be struck oat.
Mr. Caambers said such a plea should never have
's esvviildhetaewann,
tboeeintspblcaienegd upon record, and he would not consent

Ithhee
The cause was then aaljourned until Saturday
morning.
. Mr. Bovill, upon the assembling of the Court,
proceeded to address the jury for the defendant.
He said that no one could be more deeply impressed
than himself with the painful nature of the inquiry,
or was more anxious to avoid publicity given to it ;
but it was no fault of the defendant that an amic-
able arrangement had not been come to. He was
sure, however, that the jury would see that there
Fr.s something behind when they found that the
plaintiff' himself had not dared to go into the wit-

net,s-box, but had put forward the young lady 23 a
witness to give evidence against her own father,
and placed her in the painful position of proving
such a case—and when they had heard all the facts,
hs believed they would not give Mr. Pawle credit
for such high and generous motives in reference to
these proceedings as had been attributed to him,
and that they would also be of opinion that he, and
not Major Goding was responsible for dragging
this matter before the public. He said that several
days ago terms had been agreed upon that would
have ensured to Mrs. Codling an adequate provi-
sion, and to her daughter a respectable home, but
at the last moment Mr. Pawle refused to carry out
this arrangement, and they were consequently com•
pelled to go on with the action.
Mr. Chambers denied, on the part of Mr. Pawle,
that this was so; and said that at that moment
they were prepared to accept the terms that had
been offered.

Mr. Bovill repeated his assertion, and said
that the correspondence would prove that he was
correct in his statement. He would now inform
them what the real circumstances of the case
were, and a sad tale indeed it was to tell.
He should show them that Mrs. Goding, or rather
Mrs. Dickenson, for in point of fact she was the
wife of Lieutenant Dickenson, had latterly be•
come addicted to habits of intemperance, and
while in that state she would throw plates at her
husband, and committed various other acts of vio-
lence, so that it had been necessary upon some occa-
sions to call in the aid of the police. If she was pre-
vented from obtaining spirits in the house she would
send the servants to the public-house for them, and
she was in the habit of getting drunk upon gin.
The young lady who had been examined had denied
having seen her mother drunk, but he was afraid
that her mother had deceived her, and that she had
pretended to her daughter merely to be ill, when in
point of fact she was in a state of intoxication.
With regard to the marriage, he should show that
many years ago the lady was married in India to
Lieut. Dickenson, but they were separated 22 years
ago, and Major Goding became acquainted with her
while she was passing as a single woman, and re-
ceiving from her husband an allowance of £BO a
year. The jury had heard that at the commence-
ment of the cause he had asked his lordship to post-
pone it, in order to afford an opportunity for Lieut.
Dickenson to come forward and prove that the lady
who had passed as Mrs. Goding was his wife. That
gentleman was in such a state of excitement conse-
quent upon these proceedings and the discovery
that had taken place, that he was unable to attend,
and he had thought it better to go on without his
evid.nco, because Major Goding could himself prove
that the lady was not married to him. It was true
that, believing her to be a single woman, Major
Goding had formed a connection with her, ann that
they had two children, a son and daughter, the
young lady whom they had seen on the previous
day, and that for more than 20 years he had repre-
sented her as his wife. Her conduct, however, at

length became very bad, and from bad to worse
She opened the major's letters, she was constantly
drunk, she got into debt, and was so violent that
the major was at length compelled to keep her to
her own apartments. The daughter unhappily
sided with her mother, and he should show that the
major entertained most sincere affection for his child,
and his earnest desire was to remove her from
the contamination of being with such a parent.
The learned counsel then went on to state that
Mrs. Coding was in the habit of borrowing money
from the servants and other persons to obtain spirits
with, and Major Goding had been several times
summoned to the Barnet County Court for debts
that were so contracted, and he had paid such debts
over and over again rather than have any exposure.
With regard to what had been stated by the young
lady as to a small quantity of boiled fat which she
said could not be called mutton, and some potatoes
being supplied to them for the dinner, and to their
only having the use of one room for a bedroom and
sitting-room, he should show that they had the use
of several rooms, and that the best of food and
everything they required was regularly supplied
both to her and her mother. The learned counsel
then adverted to the facts of the case, and said it
was clear, from the evidence of Mr. Chapman, that
the plaintiff was distinctly told that Major Goding
would not be answerable for any money advanced
after the month of February, and that he had no
claim whatever for the sums that were afterwards
advanced by him, and that the money was advanced
in direct cpposition to the wishes and intentions of
Major Goding, and that consequently he had no
right to recover in this action.
Mr. Chambers again interfered in the course of
the address of the learned counsel for the defendant,
and expressed his willingness, on the part of the
plaintiff, to consent to reasonable terms, without
proceeding further.
Mr. Bovill said he could not consent to do this,
after the attack that had been made upon Major
Goding. A one-sided statement, reflecting seriously
upon that gentleman, had been published to the
world, and it was absolutely necessary that an an-
swer should be given to it, Mr. Pawle had thought
fit to force Major Goding into a court of justice,
and when he had done all the mischief he could, by
giving publicity to those painful matters, he ex-
pressed himself ready to come to terms. Thelearned
counsel then observed that a great many facts had
been introduced into the case which had nathing
whatever to do with it. The real question was this
—Mr. Pawle demanded money of Major Goding
which he said he never authozised him to expend
for him, and whether he had done so or not was
the only point that, in the result, the jury would
have to consider.
Anne Richardson, who had been housemaid in
the family in 1859, and down to the close of last
year, deposed that when she first went into their
service the major and Mrs. Goding and her daughter
used to take their meals together, but latterly Mrs.
Goding and her daughter occupied another portion
of the house by themselves. Four rooms were
allotted to them, three sitting-rooms and a bedroom.
She used to take them their meals. They generally
had tea at seven o'clock in the morning, lunch at
eleven, consisting of cutlets, and sometimes fish. and
at one o'clock they generally had some meat off the
joints provided for the servants. (Laughter.) They
had dinner at six o'clock and supper at nine. (Re-
newed laughter.) Major Coding used to supply the
dinner from his own table. Witness generally took
up two quarts of ale or porter with the lunch and
the dinner nd supper. (Laughter.) Witness some-
times, by Mrs. Goding's orders, used to take up a
gallon of sixpenny ale to her in a stone jar, and she
had taken up as much as two gallons of beer in the
course of the day. (Laughter.) Witness had
fetched gin from the public-house by the direction
of her mistress. A nine gallon cask of beer came
into the house every week, and when it was emptied
Mrs. Goding used to send to the public house far
spirits and beer.
Cross-examined—Mrs. Coding and the major fre-
quently quarrelled, but sometimes he was very kind
to her. He was very kind to the servants, and he
gave witness ss. at Christmas, and a bottle of sherry
on her birthday.
Mr. Hawkins—Did the major give the other ser-
vants a bottle of sherry on their birthdays ?
The witness said she could not say. She did not
know whether the other servants had birthdays.
(A roar of laughter.)
By Mr. Bovill--The bottle of sherry was given for
all the servants to partake of.
Elizabeth Ashworth, the servant referred to by
Miss Goding in her evidence, made a similar
statement, with regard to the manner in which the
ladies' table was supplied, and she also said that
when they made application for the key of their
bedroom upon their return from London, she in-
formed them that the major would let them have
the key when they told him where they had been.
In cross-examination this witness said that six
quarts of beer was generally sent up to Mrs. Goding
every day, and besides this she used to have wine,
and she used also very frequently to take up three
quarts of milk during the day. (Laughter.)
Hannah Bowman, the cook, gave similar evidence,
and she also stated that Mrs. Goding very often
came home drunk.
Cross-examined—She remembered upon one occa-
sion when Mrs. Goding was drunk she ordered her
to send up some tea, and she heard her say, " Go
and tell that fat beast of a woman to send my tea,
and then I am going to get jolly drunk." (Laughter.)
Mr. Hawkins—l suppose the expression " that fat
beast of a woman" she meant you ? (A laugh.)
Witness (indignantly)—l suppose she did. (Re-
newed laughter.)
Mr. Christopher Richards, a surveyor, a friend
of Major Coding, was then examined, and he proved
that he had an interview with the plaintiff in April,
abd that he then distinctly informed him that
Major Coding would not be answerable for any
money that was advanced, except with the view of
carrying out his wish that his daughter should be
separated from her mother.
Major Coding, the defendant, was then called as
a witness, and
Mr. Justice Williams, who had made one or two
efforts in the course of the trial to induce the par-
ties to come to some amicable arrangement, before
he was sworn addressed the leading counsel on both
sides and requested tht m to go with him into the
private room. They accordingly left the court and
were absent for nearly half an hour, when they
again came into court, and it was stated that at
length an arrangement had been effected that would
obviate:the necessity of proceeding further with the

cause.
Mr. Bovill, addressing the jury, said he was
happy to inform them that, through the kind inter
ventien of his lordship, for which he felt much in-
debted, an arrangement had been come to that
would obviate the necessity of their being calk./

Dom. is give any vci.:dict. Part of the understand-
ing was, that all iteputaiions upon the character
and motives of Mr. Pawle, in reference to this
transaction, should be withdrawn, and other terms
that would have the effect of obtaining a proper
allowance for the lady, and a proleT provision for
her daughter.
Mr. Chambers said that he also felt deeply in-
debted to his lordship for the pains he had taken
to endeavour to settle these unhappy,differences, and
he, at the same time, said that it appeared to him
that the arrangement that had been come to was a
most satisfactory one. He also expressed his satis-
faction that all imputations upon Mr. Pawle had
been withdrawn, as he felt convinced that he had
been actuated by none but the strictest feelings of
honour and kindness towards the unhappy lady
whose cause he had undertaken to vindicate.

A juror was then withdrawn, and the cause was
brought to a conclusion.
Mr. Justice Williams got through all the special
jury causes to-day, and both Courts will he engaged
on Monday in trying the remaining common jury
cases.
