INSTITUTION OF CIVIL
ENGINEERS.

MAY 7.—The second part of Mr. Fairbairn's paper,
which remained unfinished from the last meeting, was
read. It noticed the remarkable richness and purity of
the iron ores of the East, and the superior quality of the
Damascus steel, produced from iron made apparently in
the rudest and most primitive manner : it was remark-
able that, up to the present time, there had been but
little change in the manner of manufacturing charcoal iron,
even in England ; this might be accounted for by the
small quantity of wood charcoal used for smelting iron ;
but it appeared that, with the exception of that which was
sent into Staffordshire and South Wales for mingling
with the lean ores of the coal measures, but little of the
hematite, or rich ores of Lancashire, Cumberland, Corn-
wall, or Devonshire, was used, although in richness and
quality of metal they equalled those of foreign countries.
The paper then entered at length upon the experiments
on the transverse strength of the Turkish iron, and also
of the iron from other rich ores, presenting the results in
tabular form, mingled with those which had been reported
on previous occasions, in the Transactions of the Philoso-
phical Society of Manchester, and the reports of the
British Association. These tables were arranged so as to
afford the means of comparison of the strength and other
qualities of various irons, and also for practical purposes,
to furnish a guide for selecting such irons, as, by proper
mixtures of the different kinds, should enable unerring
results to be arrived at by the founder when engaged in
producing castings for the engineer, the architect, or for
various purposes in the arts, or in construction. Simple
rules were also given for finding the breaking weight of
beams cast from file fifty-two kinds of iron which had
been experimented upon. The importance of the sub-
ject of the paper, the novelty of the application of Mr.
Clay's system, and the unweared attention of Mr. Fair-
bairn, together with Mr. Hodgkinson, in the numerous
experiments they had made, were fully appreciated by
the meeting, and it was announced that the valuable
tables would speedily be published entire in the minutes
of proceedings of the institution. A specimen of steel
made from the Turkish ore, and a knife manufactured
from it by Mr. Durham, ofßegent-street, were exhibited,
and were much admired. A letter was read from Dr.
Schafhaeuth, drawing attention to some experiments
made by Sir D. Brewster on the prismatic colours gene-
rated in homogeneous bodies when pressure was applied
to them ; these experiments were recorded in the
Philosophical Transactions for 1816. They furnished
a method of rendering visible and of measuring the
mechanical changes which took place during the com-
pression, dilatation, or bending of transparent bodies.
He also stated that the tints produced by polarized
light were correct measures of the compressing and
dilating forces, and, by employing transparent gums of
different elasticities, the changes which occurred in
bodies before they were either broken or crushed could
be ascertained, and that forming models of arches of',
simple refracting substances, such as gum copal, &c.,
giving different degrees of roughness to the touching
surfaces of the voussoirs, and exposing the model to
polarized-light, the results of any degree of friction on
the joints would be readily observed. It was stated that
similar experiments had been tried by Mr. Bist
at Paris,- almost simultaneously with Dr. Brewster,
and that without doubt they had materially assisted
Dr. Robison in his valuable treatise on the strength
of materials, A description of the iron dock-gates at
Montrose harbour, by Mr. James Leslie, M. Inst,
of Civil Engineers, was then read. These gates were
described in great detail, giving all the dimensions
of the several parts, which were fully shown by some
elaborate drawings. The framing was of cast iron,
covered on both sides with wrought-iron plates, 3-Bths
of an inch and 5-16tlis of an inch thick, riveted on so as
to be water-tight, and to render the gates buoyant, and
partly to compensate for the weight of metal in them,
which was about 87 t ins. The gates were 55 feet wide
and 22 feet 6 inches deep, and were entirely composed of
iron, except the bottom bars and the false mitres, which
were of oak. The sluice valves were of iron, without
any brass on the faces, but their backs were covered
with zinc plates, and the bolts had zinc nuts screwed over
the Iron ones, in order to check the oxydation of the
iron by the galvanic action of the two metals. A general
account of Montrose harbour was given ; and it appeared
that although there had existed some doubt as to the
successful formation of a harbour id such bad ground,
being entirely sand and gravel, which stood full of mater
to within a few feet of the surface, the work having been
submitted to Mr. Walker, President of the Institution,
and having his approvul, had been satisfactorily exe-
cuted, and stood well. A model of the large swinging
gib crane used by the contractors at Granton Pier,
Edinburgh, and a drawing of the mode of raising the
standpipe at the East London Waterworks, by Mr. Wick-
steed, were exhibited.

EGLINTON PARK MEETING.—The races at Bog-
side commenced to-day under the most favourable
circumstances. The gay company, with whom the
castle of the noble patron of the sports has ben
filled for the last few days were early on the
ground ; and the crowd was much greater than
usual on the first day of the meeting. Upwards of
fifty horses have arrired, as competitors for the
various prizes ; and th,,ug,h eight of the races are
not yet closed, there were, last night, not less than
ninety-seven entries, so that unprecedented running
may be expected. The steeple chases, on Friday, will,
as usual, be of absorbing interest. Lord Eglinton,
the Marquis of Waterford, Lord Glenlyon, Lord
Drumlanrig, Sir William Scott, A. Moore, Esq.,
John Campbell, Esq., J. 0. Fairlie, Esq., and other
crack riders, take part in the competition. The
course is in capital order ; somewhat too hard, perhaps,
in consequence of the continued dry weather, though the
shower of last night moistened it a little.—Ayr Observer
of Tuesday.
THREE PERSONS DROWNED IN THE RIVER.—On
Wednesday evening, about seven, three unfortunate individuals
whose names are at present unknown, were drowned off
Battersea-bridge, under the following melancholy circum-
stances
:—lt appears from inquiries made upon the spot
that the first unfortunate person, who was apparently a gen-
tleman about 30 years of age, was rowing up the river in a
wherry alone. He had passed through one of the arches of
Battersea-bridge with railroad speed, in consequence of the
very strong currents which are mostly prevalent under the
arches of this bridge, when the head of his boat
cane in collision with one of the numerous barges
there stationed, and he was precipitated into the
water and disappeared.. He, however, rose twice, but before
the boats which had put off to his assistance had reached him
he went down a third time, and was carried away by the tide.
Two other unfortunate beings—a young man and woman--
also lost their lives in a similar manner about the same time
and place, and although the drags and boats were in imme-
diate requisition, neither of the bodies were, or have as vet
been, recovered. The numerous accidents which are conti-
nually occurring at this bridge calls loudly for some speedy
remedy to prevent a recurrence of them.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, May. 9.

(Sittings in Banco.).
ThiS was the first day of the sittings in banco after term,
and the Court took cases in the special and the new trial
papers. No case of any public interest came on up to the
hour of.eur going to press.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 9.
(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Baron GURNEY and Common
Juries.)
STEVENS V. MAGUIRE.

This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, Messrs.
Stevens and Fearon, solicitors, carrying on business in Gray's
Inn, to recover of the defendant, who is a solicitor, in Dublin,
a certain amount, as charges for conducting through a com-
mittee of the House of Commons a petition having refer-
ence to the election for the borough of Athlone, in Ire-
land, in 1842, when Major Beresford was the unsuc-
cessful candidate. There were two petitions from a
Captain Kelly and another person, members of the borough
constituency, against the successful candidate, and Mr.
Maguire was employed by them as the solicitor to conduct
the affair. On the 20th of March, 1843, the defendant, who
had engaged the plaintiffs to act as his agents in the matter,
signed an undertaking to give them 501. if they con-
tinued to conduct the petition, and in two days afterwards the
Committee concluded its inquiry, up to the 20th of March,
when that undertaking had been signed by the defendant.
The plaintiffs expenses were, he alleged, upwards of 901., and
for the continuance of the agency to the rising of the Com-
mittee, he brought a charge which increased that sum to
1401., and for this amount the present action was brought.
Mr. Peacock appeared for the plaintiffs, Mr. Petersdorff for
the defendant.

The following witnesses were called.
James Lennox examined—ls a solicitor. Knows the
plaintiffs and the defendant. Saw the memorandum now
handed in signed by the defendant Mr. Maguire, on the 20th
March, 1843. (The memorandum was here read. It was
an undertaking on the part of the defendant to pay the
plaintiffs 501. for acting as his agent in conducting the peti-
tion through the Committee of the House of Commons.)
Mr. Bramble examined—ls a solicitor, carrying on busi-
ness in Vernlatn-buildings. Was formerly in the plaintiffs'
office. Has looked through the plaintiffs' bill, and examined
the charges made in it. Its amount is 140/. 4s. 6d.; the
amount of the bill to the 19th of March, 1843, is 97/. Con-
siders the charges very reasonable.
Cross-examined—ls not sufficiently acquainted with
Parliamentary business to state with certainty that the
charges are reasonable. Had attended one Parliamentary
Committee previous to that which was the subject of the pre-
sent action. Does not think that there is a difference made
between the charges of a solicitor, when acting as agent, and
when acting as principal in the conduct of a petition, through
a Committee of the House of Commons.
These were the only witnesses called.
Mr. Baron GURNEY suggested that the better course would
be to take a verdict for fifteen guineas, with liberty to the
plaintiff to move to have the verdict increased to 50/. if the
Court should think proper so to direct.
This arrangement was ultimately agreed to by the parties,
and the jury, by the direction of the Learned Judge, returned
a verdict to that effect.

There being no other cases to come before his Lordship, the
Court then rose-at half-past twelve o'clock.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

OLD COURT.
THE MARYLEBONE MURDER.

At ten minutes after ten o'clock Mr. Justice Coltman took
his seat on the bench. Immediately afterwards William
Crouch was placed at the bar.

The jury, Who had been in deliberation during the night,
then entered the Court, and having answered to their names,
The Clerk of the. Court asked them if they had agreed on
their verdict ?

The Foreman said that his brother jurors and himself were
desirous of having those portions of the evidence read over
which related to the prisoner's sanity 'IT insanity.
The Learned JUDGE said he would dispatch a special mes-
senger to Mr. Baron Alderson, before whom the prisoner was
tried, and who was then engaged at Westminster. The jury
would therefore retire until his Learned Brother arrived.

The jury then withdrew.
Shortly afterwards, it having been represented to the Judge
that some of the jury were in a faint and exhausted state,
from their long confinement, Dr. M'Murdo, the physician to.
the prison, was directed to see the gentlemen of the jury, and
report to the Court on their condition.
Dr. M'Murdo entered the Court, and said that the whole
of the jurymen were much exhausted, but more particularly
seven of them—they had all been used to stimulants. He
thought them unfit to exercise their mental powers.
Mr. Justice COLTMAN—Do you think they are in danger,
if not immediately discharged? Mr. M'Murdo—No so as to
destroy life, my Lord.
Mr. Justice Cot:minx—ls there a probability, unless they
are immediately discharged, of their health being injured?
Mr. M'Murdo—l think so, my Lord.
The Learned JUDGE directed the jury to be brought into
Court. On their entrance he said he had received a commu-
nication from Mr. Baron Alderson, in which he stated that
he would be there directly, or in half an hour; and if he did
not arrive in that time, he would send for them again.
Shortly after twelve o'clock Mr. Baron Alderson arrived,
and the jury having entered the box, the Learned Judge
read over the evidence, minutely detailing the circumstances
of the case, and, in fact, charged the jury a second time,
who retired at
,a quarter past twelve o'clock, again to consi-
der their verdict. -

THE LATE ABDOCTION CASE.—On the application of Mr.
Wilkins the trial of William Burton Netvenham, charged with
the abduction of Miss Northam, was postponed until the next
session.

At half-past one o'clock the jury returned to the Court,
the prisoner was again placed at the bar, and the names
having been called over, the Clerk of the Court asked them
if they had agreed on their verdict, and whether they found
the prisoner guilty or not guilty.
The Foreman—" Guilty, my Lord."
Baron Ai DERSON—" Let the prisoner be brought up again
on Saturday."
The prisoner was again removed, but in a few minutes
Baron Alderson desired that he might be again placed in the
dock.

He was accordingly brought forward, and silence having
been proclaimed, the Learned JUDGE proceeded to pass sen-
tence of death upon the prisoner in the most impressive
manner. Having put on the black cap, he said :—William
Crouch, the jury, after a long and painful consideration, have
come to the conclusion that you were in a responsible state of
mind at the time when the act was done with which you
stand charged—rthat you were not in a state of
mind which rendered you irresponsible for your actions.
Of the fact itself no one could entertain the slightest doubt;
it was committed in the open day, in the presence of others,
and 'committed towards one to whom you were bound in all
the ties of love and duty, and at a time when the unfortunate
female was administering, from her own bosom, nourishment to
your unfortunate child. All that now remains for me to do is
to tell you the fate which awaits you. The end of these
things is death—death which will be eternal. Throw your-
self on the mercies of Christ, and employ the short time you
have to live in seeking pardon from the Almighty.
The sentence of this Court is, and I am but the minister of
the law in that respect, " that you be hanged by the neck
until you are dead, and that after your death your body be
buried within the precincts of the prison." •
During the delivery of the sentence of the Learned Judge
the prisoner was unmoved, but listened with great attention.
At its conclusion he bowed slightly to the Bench, and was
understood to say, "I am an innocent man." He walked from
the dock with a firm step.
William Henry Gower, 42, a person genteely dressed,
and who was stated to be an attorney, was indicted,
under the statute for feloniously uttering a forged certi-
ficate of marriage, alleged to have been solemnised be-
tween himself and one Amelia Drayson.
Mr. Payne conducted the prosecution.
The case occupied the Court a considerable time, but
it will not be necessary to go into the evidence in detail.
It will be recollected, from the inquiries that took place
at the police-office, that the prosecutrix and the prisoner
entered inta'anagreement to cohabit together, the latter
undertaking.tO marry her when his wife should die, and
it would appear that upon their taking possession of
some lodging, the certificate in question, which purported
to be a copy extracted from the marriage register of St.
George's, describing the marriage of the parties at that
church, was produced by the prisoner. It was proved
that the prosecutor was perfectly well aware of the cir
cumstances of the prisoner, and that she knew the pre-
tended certificate was a forgery. The defence set up was
that the prisioner had no guilty or improper intention in
uttering the certificate, and that he merely made himself
a party to it, to save the credit and character of the pro-
secutrix.

The prosecutrix, in her cross-examination, explained
that she and the prisoner had been engaged in " lite-
rary" employment, and she also stated that she had pub-
lished a work called the " Gordian CEdipus."
The prisoner declared that the sole object of the pro-
secutrix in instituting the present prosecution, was to
give notoriety to the work in question; and that she in-
tended to sacrifice him for that object.
Mr. Justice COLTMAN having summed up the case,
The Jury, after a short consideration, returned a ver•
diet of Guilty, but, at the same time, strongly recom-
mended the prisoner to mercy; and also added their
opinion that the prosecutrix was quite as guilty in the
transaction as the prisoner was, and that she ought to
have been by his side in the dock as partireps crintinis.
The Learned JUDGE addressed the prisoner, and said
he had no alternative but to pass upon him a sentence of
two years' imprisonment and hard labour, as that
was the smallest punishment affixed by the law to the
offence of which he had been convicted. lie should,
however, forward the recommendation of the jury to the
Secretary of State, and in all probability the sentence
would be materially modified.
_ _

Nathaniel Oar b:n, 19, v% eaver, was indicted for fe•
loniously and maliciously setting fire to the dwelling-
house of James Thomason, Mary Palmer and other
pet sons being therein at the time.
It appeared from the evidence, that the prosecutor is a
weaver, residing in New Montague-street, Middlesex ;
and the prisoner had been in his service, but was dis-
charged a short time before the occurrence in question
took place, although it did not appear that there was any
ill-feeling between him and the prosecutor. A good
many lodgers lived in the proserutor's house, and it
appeared that the outer door had no other fastening than
a latch, and the prisoner was well aware of this fact.
On the night of the 4th of April Mr. Palmer, one of the
lodgers in the house, was awoke by a strong smell of
fire, and the next morning it was found that an endeavour
had been made to set fire to the stairs, a portion of the
flooring being burnt, and some lucifer matches and pieces
of dry wood, partly burnt, were near the place. A con-
stable was set to watch the next night, and about two
o'clock in the morning the prisoner was found in the
house, and on his being searched some lucifer matches
and pieces of wood and a candle were found in his pos-
session. When he was taken into custody he trembled
violently, and appeared very much alarmed, and he
accounted for being in the house by saying that he had
been locked out of his own lodging, and that he had
come there to sleep.
The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty.

At the conclusion of the labours of the Grand Jury, they
presented the following report to the Court ;
" The Grand Jury desire to express their belief that no
disadvantage would arise to the administration of justice, nor
to persons committed for trial by the Police Magistrates, if
the indictments against such persons were brought to trial
before the Court without the intervention of the Grand Jury,
and that this alteration of the existing practice would effect
a great saving of expense to the districts within the jurisdic-
tion of the Central Criminal Court, and of the time of the po•
lice and witnesses &enerally, and would also further the ends
of justice by diminishing the disinclination of prosecutors to

make the sacrifice of time and convenience which is now re"
quired of them."
The CommoN SERGEANT said—As your observations are
confined to this district, where the committing 'Magistrates
hold regular police courts, where the bar attend, ant wherl
the press regularly report the proceedings of the courts,
agree with you, and think, a great loss of time, unnecessari
inconvenience, and expense, and sometimes injustice, is ocea:
sioned by the attendance here of the Grand Jury, and
therefore, direct that your representations be communicated
to, the Secretary of State at the Home-office.

CLERKEN WELL.

Peter Haynes, a printerin Cllarterhouse-lane,
Sepulchre's, was charged- with refusing to support his
wire and child, whereby they became chargeable t°
Clerkenwell parish.
The prisoner, who appeared in Court without a cost.
when charged with the offence, made no other rep P'

His wife, a remarka'ily mild and interesting looking
young woman, cued bitterly on being placed in the
witness-box, and gave her evidence against the prisoner
with the greatest reluctance. Some months ago the
prisoner deserted her, and went to cohabit with another
woman, leaving herself and child utterly destitute. s„be
was forced to apply to the Ch-rkenwell overseers 119 r
relief, and the prison 'r was, after some time, sPPre.
hended, and brought before the magistrate. In order t°
avoid gong to prison, he promised to allow her eic
shillings a week for tier on and infant's support. e
never gave more than seven, and when she went far
this pittance he oaten refused to give her a farthing. 111
a short time he stopped the allowance altogether, an,',
she was on the verge of starvation, when she again felt
herself compelled to have recourse to parochial aid.
Aldb,rry, the assistant overseer, corroborated t'e
woman's statement.

Mr. CoMBE (to the prisoner)—How much do y°l
earn? Prisoner (smiling)—Just 255. a week.
Aldherry—And yet he grudges to allow his Pp°.
wife and child eight stillings a v‘eck.

he was accosted by the prisoner who, after persisting Le
het
walking by his side for some tiistance, suddenly thrust :g„
