EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

The Court was occupied during the entire morning in
trying the part-heard case of Linthay v. Smith, which
was an *ectit.n t,) recover damages for tno running down
of a' ichooner named the Cenova, by the Emily brig,
wbilit tfailivg near Ysrmouti Sands. The trial of the
Case, the particulars of which were devoid of interest,
.1,41 likely t occupy the greater portion of the day. •

110 W-STItEET.-(THIS DAY.)
Three respedtably • attired young lemales were charged
with an-assault .

Mr. John Ilenzessy, the complainant, who stated that
he' lived Upon an annui;y, said that yesterday afternoon
, be returned home w the Crown Coffee-house, St. James's-
.strept., whene he found the three prisoners, two of whom
'Were Ow landlord's daughters, and the other their
cousin. No sooner had be entered than one of them
threw a glass of water in:his face, saying, "Take that,
yon lying .brute." The other two then closed upon him,
and after pulling his hair and scratching his face, one
of them Feized his right hand and dashed it through a
pane Gf gliss. His hand was so severely lacerated that
he vias afraid the injuries would disable him for some
time, and 'in order, therefore, to protect himself from
further violence, he gave the prisoners into custody.
The defence of the prisoners was that the com-
' plisinkat had traduced their characters and robbed
them of their fair names. He repeated his vile charge
7faterday in the presence of several young men who
Uppened to be on a visit to them, and while smarting
Under the sting of the slander, one of them certainly did
throw the water in his face, but as for the other part
Of the assault it was a pure fabrication. The fact was
he wanted to fight one of the young men and in the
scuffle that ensued he put his fist through the window.
Several respectable witnesses confirmed this statement,
and

Mr. HALL dismissed the case, telling the complainant
that he had no right to impute vice and immorality to
'Clung women whose virtue had never before been ques-
tioned. There could be no doubt after the evidence that
he brought the assault upon himself.

XARLB RCY-STREET.-(T HIS DAY.)
A RUFFIAN.— George Jackson, a butcher, residing at
No. 9, Market-street, Newport-market, was brought
before Mr. Bingham, charged with violently assaulting
his wife, Susan Jackson.
. Police-constable 182 C deposed that on Saturday
Light, about 12 o'clock, he was callei to No. 9, Market-
Street, where he found prisoner's wife lying on the
landing of the stairs in a state of insensibility, with
blood flowing from her month. Witness procured some
Water and rprinkled it over her face, and in the course of a
few minutes bhe was sofa recovered as to tell him that the
Prisoner had inflicted the injuries shewas suffering from.
As the woman gradually got worse, witness procured
aisistance and conveyed her to Charing-cross Hospital.
Witness produced the surgeon's certificate, which set
forth that the injured woman nes not in a fit state to
attend at this court this morning.
The prisoner, in defence, said his wife was a most in-
corrigible drunkard, and was in the constant habit of
Pledging both his and his children's things and spending
The money in drink. He caught her in a state of intoxi-
Cation on Saturday, and certainly did comet her.
Vt. BINGLIAN remanded the prisoner till Wednesday
kit. •

HEE:, MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
The attractions of La Tempesta continue to in-
crease, and on Saturday, on the occasion of its seventh
representation, the theatre was crowded to suffocation
!11 every part, the attraction of Halevy's music, of Lab-
ische's glorious acting, of Sontag's equisite and perfect
l'ocalisation, and the poetry of Carlotta Grisi's dancing
12:"ing so great as to induce all lovers of the lyrical
drama to brave the heat of the weather. Mr. Lumley,
/1%1:e must do him the justice to say, has done all that lies in
13 Power to remedy the inconvenience of the heat,
acid his efforts have been successful. Her Majesty's
At'stre is certainly the be,t ventilated in London,
vhilst the exquisite fittings up of the salle give it a
delightfully
cool appearance to the eye. The per-
formance of the opera on Saturday night went off
/float brilliantly ; indeed the furore which La Tern•
148 N excites increases in intensity on every repre-
sentation.

REST OF THE LISBON SQUADRON.
Copy of a letter from a gentleman on board the
Phaeton :

" Lisbon, J0ne.1.5, 1850.

" We have had three trials on a wind with the Are-
thusa, and beat her each time very much; the other
ships we beat more than on our first cruize, the Thetis
being the last ship of the sailing frigates.
" We had one trial going free, wind quarterly, slight.
We ran forty-four miles in seven hours, and lett off with
a alight advantage over the Arethusa. We beat Lean-
der 4} milei; Indefatigable, 6 miles; and Thetis,
8 miler.

" In our last trial on a wind we weathered the Are-
thusa in four hours 3 miles; the Leander and Indefati-
gable. 5 miles; and the Thetis, 6 or 7 miles.
" We are going out again."

SlR,—The redoubtable son of Bay Middleton and
Barbelle, the far-famed Flying Dutchman. by his ridi-
culously easy victory over Jericho, Canezou, Little Jack,
and Peep-o'day Boy for the Emperor's Plate at Ascot,
has proved himself to be the best horse of the present
century, and of all time fur what I know; he has
eclipsed Flying Childers, and the wonder of
the last century, Mr. Wildman's celebrated son
of Marsk, Eclipse. This is his thirteenth
triumph, and to say he never will be beaten
is more than frail humanity can venture on, but I hold it
very improbable, and if he is, the horse that beats him
—on his tuerits, well and fit—will never find his equal in
the equine world.
Thistledown, for the Railway Plate, at sst 21b, made a
nice bed of thistles for those who ventured to lay against
him, having the fact staring them in theirace, that he
was within 51bs of the Newmarket Stakes viiaaer, Cari-
boo; - and yet they made Docility, at Est 61b, thV favourite,
who, by last week's running for the Surrey and Middle-
sex Stakes at Hampton, was proved to be inferior to
Little Jack. 3 yrs, 7st, giving only 81bs for the year !
Shades of Frampton, Mellish, and Bentinck,,look down
on the judgement of your degenerate successors;
Lord Caledon's Wild Rose, 4 yra, 7st 31b, won the
Birmingham Stakes from St. George, 3 yrs, 63t 41b, so
very easily, that it would be advisable not to lose sight,
in small scrambles, of this son of Emilius or Bramble.
The Newcastle Meeting commences to day, and
boasts an average amount of sport, tut for the most
part of no particular account.
The attraction of the week, the Northumberland
Plate, will in all probability bring to the post the fol-
lowing:—Elthiron, 4 yrs, 7st 71b, Glance, 4 yrs, 7st 71b,

sst 21b, First Rate, 3 yrs, sst, and lanthe, 3 yrs, 4st
101 b. Canezou, Melton, Roland, Deicoon, Impertinence
horses, and Mark Tapley, might run, but with the ex-
ception of Deicoon, without any chance of altering the
result.

The top-weights will, I fancy, be represented by " the
crack," and the light-weights by the Knight of Gwynne;
and, in the absence of I)eicoon and Canezou, I should
place the " first flight" thus:—

will carry off both the Produce Stakes; Citadel, if she
runs, otherwise Buckhound, the Champagne Stakes; Bee
flunt.r, with Cariboo and Thistledown in attendance,
the First Triennial; Day's representative (whether La-
manioc, Prestige, or Grecian, I really don't know) the
10 sous. Stakes; and I have but little doubt fur the
Second Triennial, Mr. Ford will be called upon to give a
receipt for the payment of the stakes, the Citadel, in my
opinion, not being able to hold out against the flying
daughter of Slane.

AQUA TICS.
A match, at which, owing to the strict privacy ob-
served, there but few present save those intimately con-
nected with the parties engaged, came off last Thursday
evening. The competitors were scholars at present at
Westminster against those who had belonged to that in-
stitution, and the course chosen was from Chiswick
Eyot to Putney-bridge. The following are the names of
the gentlemen in the rival boats; the race was smartly
contested throughout:—
PAST WESTMINSTERS.—Messrs. Heneage, A. Milman,
J. Rich, C. Stewart, W. H. Millman, A. Hanbury, A.
Barker, W. G. Rich (stroke), and E. Balgone (cox-
swain).
PRESENT WESTMINSTERS.—C. Upperton, G. F. Wil-
liams, A. Millman, F. Steward, W. B. Emerson, J.
Wright, W. IL Horne, W. Barnes (stroke), and F.
Gr,en (coxswain).
The younger party went away with the lead, and by
their fine plucky rowing retained it well for the first
mile, when their opponents came alongside and gradually
began to take the 'cad. The present Westminster party,
however, were so thoroughly game, that although over-
matched, as may be expected, in weight and years, they
kept so close to their opponents, that the latter, at the
Crab Tree, had little more than halt a length a head.
Victory was, however, ultimately, the past Westminsters,
es they continued to gain slightly, and eventually beat
their younger friends by a couple of lengths.

TAUXHALL-GARDENS.—On Saturday these grounds
were opened at the early hour of five o'clock, in order to suit
the convenience of the Nepaulese Ambassador and his
countrymen, who had expressed a desire to witness the
ascent of a balloon, and in a short time an immense concourse
of visitors was attracted to the firework ground and the ad-
jacent spots. The inflation of the balloon was completed
before six o'clock, and Mr. Green and Mr. 141,11, well known
for his encouragement of aerostation, were in attendance. At
half-past six o'clock the arrival of the Nepaulese was an-
nounced by the discharge of ordnance. They were met by
Mr. Wardell, the proprietor, and Mr. Barnett, the master of
the ceremonies, who immediately introduced the aeronauts
to them. Some disappointment was experienced at the ab-
sence of his Excellency himself, who, it was stated, was
unable to be present on account of indisposition. The Ne-
paulese pre-ent were Colonel liliershum Stier Jung Bahadoor
and his attendants, Hazy Dhelising and Suit Saulsing.
Having examined the balloon with great attention, they took
the seats prepared for them, and shortly after seven o'clock
the ascent took place. 'hie clearness of the sky enabled the
spectators to trace its course for a considerable time, and the
height reached was understood to exceed anything yet ac-
complished in aerial navigation. At ten o'clock the gardens
were completely crowded with company, and for many years
have not exhibited so gay a scene.
M7I77MITY OF DURHAM.—A convocation was
held on Tuesday, when the honorary degree of M.A. was
conferred on Robert Stephenson, Esq., and Mr. Henry
Taylor, the author of " Philip Yam Artevelde."
