ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, Dec. 11.
(Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.)
A man, named William Makin, aged 29, was charged
with having, on the sth of October last, at Lockwood,
near lluddersfield, in the West Riding, feloniously and
violently assaulted Mary Ann Armytage, and commit-
ting a repo upon her person.
Mr. Pashley and Mr. Monteith prosecuted, and the
prisoner was undefended.
The prisoner is a married man, residing at Crossland-
moor, in the parish of Lockwood. The prosecutrix is a
mill girl, 15 years of age, and—like too mazy, we fear,
of her class—did not appear to possess much of the com-
modity called modesty. In the witness-box she gave her
evidence with the most unblushing impudence, though
she ascribed as a reason for not immediately informing
any one of what she alleged had been done to her, that
she " dursn't do it for shame." The prosecutrix lodged
with the prisoner, and before his marriage she had lived
with his wife, who at that time had two bastard chil-
dren. The prosecutrix slept in the same bed with an
old woman and a boy, and in the same room slept the
prisoner, his wife, and another boy. It was urged for
the prosecution, that in the absence of all from the house
but the prosecutrix the prisoner effected his purpose,
and if her evidence, when examined by her own counsel,
was to be believed, much against her own desire. his
Lordship, however, who had the depositions before him,
put several questions to her, in answering which she
committed herself in a variety of ways, contradicting
statement after statement almost as soon as she had
made it. It appeared that criminal connexion had taken
place between them, but that it was in opposition to the
girl's desire appeared very doubtful indeed.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE summed up, and presented the
case to the jury somewhat in the manner we have de-
scribed it.

The jury retired, however, to consider their verdict,
and, after an absence of three minutes, Acquitted the
prisoner.
In this case the law was so clearly laid down by his
Lordship, that surely there was no necessity for the jury
to retire. As it is customary, however (that the cases
may not be delayed), to swear in another jury imme-
diately upon the retirement of the preceding case, these
Yorkshire juries, after sitting for about two hours, get
tired, and when the case concludes they beg to retire,
that they may escape for a time the duties which they
are called upon to bear. It generally happens that not
a minute elapses between the swearing in of the new jury
and the return of the others, and in the case above re-
ported they positively returned before the whole of the
ceremony of installing the new jury was concluded. This
practice hinders to such a degree the business of the
assizes, already so long protracted, and is so notorious to
every one here, that we have deemed it our duty briefly
to refer to it.

John Kendrew, who was yesterday acquitted on an in-
dictment charging him with feloniously harbouring, aid-
ing, and assisting his brother, William Kendrew, well
knowing him to have been guilty of a felony in wilfully
murdering one Mr. Inchbald (az reported yesterday),
was to-day placed upon his trial, charged with stealing,
on the 29th of September last, at Boroughbridge, one
pistol, the property of Ann Glenton.
Mr. Wilkins and Mr. Overend prosecuted the prisoner,
who, himself, was undefended.
The prisoner had lodged in the same house with the
prosecutrix, and the case was connected in a great mea-
sure with that reported yesterday, the pistol having
been stolen just prior to starting from Boroughbriclgo
with his brother William for Newcastle, where it was
pawned. The prisoner was not actually seen to take
the pistol ; but he was proved to have known where it
used to be kept—to have said soon after the pistol bad
bean missed that he had a pistol then, when he was never
known to have had ono before, and to have pawned it at
Newcastle. The duplicate also was found upon him ;
the pistol was clearly ideatitled, and on being appre-
hended he gave false names. Altogether there could be
no doubt on the face of the evidence that the nrisoper
had been guilty of the Nlpny wlt4 which Q etas 4argp4.
Mr, Justice CoLpiTDOE summed up, =4
The jury, without hesitation, found the prisJr
Guilty.—To be transported for wren years.
