ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME ClRCUlT._Hertford, March 1.

CROWN COURT.—The Rev. James Brogden surren-
dered to answer an indictment, charging him with felo-
niously,discharging a loaded gun at Cornelius Wintle,
with intent to disfigure him. In another count the pri-
soner's intent was laid to be, to maim and disable the
prosecutor, or to do him some grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Ryland and Mr. Rodwell conducted the prosecu-
tion. Tile prisoner was defended, by Mr. Montagu
Chambers, Mr. Lydekker, and the Hon. Robt. Grimston.
Mr. RYLAND addressed the jury, and said the prisoner
was charged with one of the most serious offences, and
under circumstances which demanded, and he was sure
would no doubt receive, their most serious consideration.
The prisoner was charged with the offence of shooting at
the prosecutor, and the real question was, with what in-
tent that act was committed. The nominal prosecutor
was a constable of the Ilerts constabulary, but the real
Prosecutor was Captain Robertson, the head of the police
force, who acted under the orders of the magistrates.
The prisoner was a clergyman of the. Church of Eng-
land, and he was bound to say that up to that time he
was universally esteemed and respected, and he (the
Learned Counsel) could assure them that he appeared on
the present occasion to prosecute him under feelings of
very considerable pain and reluctance. The Learned
Counsel then proceeded to state the circumstances under
which the charge was made against the prisoner, and
which will be better understood by the evidence. At
the same time he observed, that he felt it to be his duty
to state that there was not the slightest evidence of any
,ill feeling being entertained by the prisoner against
the prosecutor, but rather the contrary ; and, he added
that after the occurrence it was only due to the prisoner
to say, that he had done all in his power to alleviate
the pain and injury sustained- by the prosecutor. The
real,fact appeared to be that the prisoner, feeling some
alarm, and imagining that thieves were upon the pre-
mises,
.had discharged the gun at a person whom he
supposed intended to injure him either in his person or
property. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to
make some further remarks to the jury, and observed
that if any difficulty should arise as to the law, that
would be, no doubt, reserved by his Lordship for the
consideration of the Judges.—The following evidence
was then adduced:—

Cornelius Wintle examined by Mr. RODWELL—I am
one of the Herts constabulary, and on the 31st of De-
cember last I was on duty at Childwick-green, near St.
Alban's, about one o'clock in the morning. At that time
I was near the prisoner's house, and I heard two sepa-
rate reports of fire-arms, almost together, and this in-
duced me to turn round and run back to the house.
When I got to a poplar tree by the side of the road, about
ten or a dozen yards from Mr. Brogden's yard gate,
I received the contents of a gun in my head, eyes,
and different other parts of my body. I dropped
immediately in the road, and lay senseless for some
time. It was a moonlight night. In a short
time I put my hand to my head and found it
covered with blood, and I called out that I was
shot. I then heard Mr. Brogden say—"Oh, my God
there is some one shot." Shortly after this I saw
George, Mr. Brogden's butler, and several females,
and the prisoner said to me Why did you not answer
when I called out to you ?' I told him I did not hear
him. The prisoner then asked me why I did not show
my light as I had promised to do,:and I said that I had
promised to show my light if I was on his premises at
any time when he opened the window, but at this time
I was on the road. I also :told him that it was such a
light night that he could see a man on the high road a
quarter of a mile off. It was both moonlight and star-
light. I should say that the place where I was standing
at the time I was shot, could be easily seen from the
house. Mr. Brogden, the prisoner, immediately sent
for a doctor, and rendered me every assistance.
Cross-examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—The prisoner
has lived in this house about four months, and when he
first came there was some conversation about the dan-
gerous position of the house, and it was then arranged
that I should show my light whenever I was upon his
premises.

Mr. CHAMBERS—Was anything said about the housl
being lonely ?
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—How can that be material i
If he believed the constable was a thief be bad no right
to shoot him.

Cross-examination continued—The road in question
leads to two other houses besides Mr. Brogden's, and
from thence to the fields. The shots to have struck me
must have passed over a wall, but not near the place
where there is a good deal of ivy. I had a lighted
lantern with me.
Sarah Woodbone, examined by Mr. RYLAND—On
Saturday, the 30th Of December, I was in Mr. Brogden's
house, in attendance upon Mrs. Brogden, who wai3
within three days of her confinement. After I had re-
turned to bed, I was disturbed in the night by a noise
as if something was knocking at the yard gate, and the
dogs upon the premises barked very much. I got up
and looked out of my window into the lane at the sid
of the house. Mr. Brogden's room was next to min .
I could not see anything, because it was such a dar
night. Soon afterwards I heard the noise again, and
I went to the window and rapped at it, thinking
1 that if it was the policeman he would show his light,
but I did not see anything, and I then went to Mt.
Brogden's room, and he told me to open the staircase
window looking into the yard, but Mr. Brogden even-
tually did so himself. From that window you can seie
the poplar tree. The prisoner looked out of the windoW
and said, " Who is there ? who is there ?" There was
no answer, and the prisoner then said, " You had better
li stand off," and immediately fired his gun out of t "e
window. He brought a double baftelled gun from h s
bed-room, and he discharged both barrels out f
the window. The prisoner went away telling irle
to watch if I could see any body. I looked out Of
the window but could not see any thing. I could
not observe the poplar tree. The prisoner was away
long enough to re-load the gun, and when he came
back he again called out twice, and then fired in the
direction of the cottage as it appeared to me, and after
he had fired, I heard a man groan, and Mr. Brogatin
immediately exclaimed, " Ohl there is somebody shot"
and he appeared very much surprised and agitated. The
house was immediately alarmed, and the prisoner and
all the servants, and also Mrs. Brogden, went out, and
the prisoner was assisted into the house. Mr. Brogden
asked the policeman why he diamot answer when he
ealled out to him, and the policeman replied that he did
think he would have shot off the premises.
George Rutherford was then called, in order that the
prisoner's counsel might have an opportunity of cross-
examining him. In answer to questions from Mr. Cham-
bers, he said the night was so dark that he could not 80
the policeman or tell who he was until he got close Op
to him and found him lying upon the ground.
Isaac Rye, a superintendent of police, deposed that he
was sent for to Mr. Brogden's house after the occurrence,
and saw the prisoner who called him to him and asked him
to go up stairs with him. He then showed him the pqr-
sonage window, and told him that he heard some persons
about his premises, and he called out to them and firedm
the direction of the poplar tree, and not hearing any one
answer he reloaded his gun, and then returned to the
window, and called out again three times "Who 'is
there?" He then said he thought he heard footsteps,
and he fired in the direction of the cottage and the
poplar tree, and soon afterwatds he heard the moans'of
some person who was wounded. Mr. Brogden then
brought him the gun, which he now produced. It was
very dark at the time witness went, and he had not ob-
served that the moon gave any light in the early partlof
the evening; if there had been light sufficient to observe
objects it would be possible to see the poplar tree from

the window in question.
Mr. Robert Clarke, a surgeon at St. Alban's, deposed
that he examined the person of the prosecutor, and found
-that he was wounded on the head, both thighs and ab-
ilomen. The wounds were not in themselves dangerous,
but might have proved so in their results.
Cross-examined—Mr. Brogden constantly expressed
the greatest anxiety about the prosecutor.
Mr. RYLAND said this was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. BARON ALDERSON expressed his opinion, that
there was no case to go before thejury. It appeared that
the prisoner had fired a gun out of a window in the dark,
and there was not the slightest proof that he saw any
one, much less that he intended to shoot any one. If
Mr. Brogden had intended to shoot the person he fired
at, he would have said, " I have hit him," and not have
said, " Good God, there is a man shot."
The jury considered for a short time, when the fore-
man said they were unanimously of opinion that Mr.
Brogden did not intend to shoot at any one when he fired
the gun.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON said he quite concurred in the
opinion of the jury, and then addressing Mr. Brogden
said—" I hope, Mr. Brogden,you will be more careful in
future; it was a very incautious act, but I entirely acquit
you of an intention to injure any person."
The Rev. Gentleman then came upon the Bench, and
was warmly greeted by his friends, amongst whom were
the Earl of Verulam, Viscount Grimston, M.P., Lord
John Manners, M.P., the Bishop of Herefo rd, the Dean
of Ely, Archdeacon Thorpe, Rev. Dr. Wordsworth, of
Harrow, Rev. Dr. Nicholson, and T. H. Gape, Esq., all
of whom were in attendance to bear testimony to the
general humanity and kindness of Mr. Brogden.
A verdict of Not Guilty was then recorded, and Mr.
Brogden was ordered to be immediately set at liberty.

' To be imprisoned for eight calendar months.
Wiffiam Smart and Charles Gorley were indicted for *at-
tempting to discharge loaded fire-arms at one William
with intent to prevent the lawful apprehension of Cherie.
Shipley.
The prisoners and Shipley were shooting in it rabbit-
warren in the occupation of the prosecutor, who, -with IWO •
persons besides himself, on horseback, and three on foot,
went inpursuit of them. yOn the approach of the pursuers
orieTirthO-prisoners told the other to load his gun. This wan •
done; and some threatening bravado took place on the part
of the prisoners, with the view, apparently, of deterring the
prosecutor and his companions from following them. The
party were, however, pressed on pretty closely; and the pro-
secutor was abont seizing Shipley, when the prisoner Gorley,
pointed his gun towards him. The gun went off, having re-
ceived at the moment a blow from a stick, doing, however,
no damage to any one. Whetherprisoner had actually pullet
the trigger did not exactly appear. The poachers were then
overpowered and treated with considerable violence.
Mr. Wilkins addressed the jury for the defence, contend-
ing that the gun went off by accident, in consequence of the
blow of the stick, and that the prisoner had no intention of
firing at the prosecutor. Verdict—Net Guilty.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
CLERKENIVELL.
John Dobey Pollard, a solicitor, residing at Bowling Green-
lane, King-street, Borough, and Marsh-gate, Lambeth, was
placed in the felons' dock, charged witlfstabbing Mr. 11. Hen-
worthy, a reporter, residing in Camden Town.
The prosecutor deposed that on the previous evening he
met the prisoner in a public-house, where they fell into con-
versation, and had some refreshments together. They left the
house, and in Holborn the prisoner, who was intoxicated,
behaved in so strange a manner that a large mob gathered
round him. Witness, conceiving he was a respectable man,
induced him to accompany witness into Warwick -court to
avoid the crowd. The prisoner then struck him, and witness
having been informed that Mr. Pollard was known at the
Lion public-house, Jockey-steps, Holborn, accompanies
him thither. The prisoner sat down on a stool,
within a few feet of the bar, which witness was
standing at, with his back against it, when the pri-
soner suddenly made a thrust of an open pocket knife
at the lower part of his abdomen. Witness bent his body se.
as to avoid his thrust, but the blade pierced through all his
dress, and inflicted a slight puncture on the flesh. Witness
had given the prisoner no provocation whatever, was per-
fectly sober, and had never seen him before that day. If he
had not stooped he believed the stab would have been of a
very serious nature. The prisoner threatened to " pepper"
witness at the station-house. -

Mr. Joseph Hearne, a reporter, residing in Nerth-street,.
Pentonville confirmed the above testimony.
The knife was produced; it had a large dagger-pointed
blade, and was a very formidable weapon.
The prosecutor proposed that the matter might be suffered
to proceed no further, if the prisoner would place a few pounds
in the poor-box.
Mr. COMBE declined to listen to any proposal of the kind„.
and the prisoner was committed for trial to the Old Bailey.

THE WILLS
_FORGERIES..

MANSION-HOUSE.

(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Mr. Goodman (the chief clerk to the Lord Mayor) began,
as s i as it was intimated to the prisoners that they were to
be again brought up, in consequence of the application of the
Learned Counsel for Barber, on the 23d instant, to read over
the depositions, in the several cases.
Fletcher paid the most intense attention to the entire of the
evidence, but left the whole management of his case to Mr.
Humphries, his solicitor. Barber occasionally wrote as Mr..
Goodman proceeded, and communicated with Mr. Parry,
who was understood to be in attendance as the representative
of Mr. Chambers, the barrister employed in the early stages of'
the proceedings for that prisoner.
The case in which Mary Hunt was alleged to have been
perionated for the purposes of fraud, was the first upon which
the depositions were sworn to and signed.
The depositions in the case in which Eliza Burchard was
alleged to have been personated by Mrs. Dorey, at that time
Georgiana Richards, were the next read over, sworn to and
signed by the several witnesses, and in neither case was any
comment made by the prisoners or those who attended for
them.
In the case in which John Stewart was alleged to have
been personated, when Mr. Goodman arrived at the evidence
of Mr. Pott, of Doctors' Commons,
Mr. Pott expressed a wish that the following words should
be added to the evidence he had given upon his examinatio.ri
relative to the prisoner Griffin :—" Griffin said, in his state—
ment, that the affidavit had not been read over to him, or if
it had been read over to him he did not understand the
nature of it. Now I declare that it was read.over to him,.
twice at least, and the draft of the affidavit is now in the
hands of Mr. Freshfield, with the word " approve' upon it,
and signed T. Griffin."' The witness stated that the addi-
tion of these words would prevent the continuance of a mis-
apprehension as to the evidence he had given. He had, in
fact, received several communications upon the subject.
' Mr. Humphries—l think it necessary (seeing, as I do, in
what character Griffin is to be a party) that the state-
ment now made by Mr. Pott should be added to his deposi-
tion. It refers to a statement made by Griffin to Mr. Weir,
and deposed to by Mr. Weir on a former day.
The LORD MAYOR directed that the addition made by Mr.
Pott should be added to the deposition of that gentleman, and
expressed a hope that publicity should be given to it.
Mr. Humphries asked the witness whether the draft of the
affidavit had been read over to Griffin ? Mr. Pott—l have
no doubt at all that the draft was read over to him by my
clerk; but I can only swear as to the original having been
read over to him.

When Mr. Goodman read the deposition in the case
in which the property of Anne Slack was alleged to have been
drawn out of the hands of the Commissioners for the Reduc-
tion of the National Debt, by means of a fabricated will,
signed " Emma Slack,"
Mr. Humphries said he observed that the evidence of Miss
Slack was stated in the depositions to have been taken in
the presence Of the prisoners. Now such was not the cue.
The evidence of Miss Slack was taken when in facV nobody
was in custody but Mr. Barber. He noticed theAflicC not to
put it forward as an objection, but to show the propriety of
adopting the course recommended by the Judges to have the-
words taken down at the moment from the mouths of wit-
nessess in every case.
Mr. Goodman wished that it never became necessary to
depart from such a course, but in some cases the system was
impracticable.
Mr. Humphries—The departure is an evil in the opinion of
the first authorities.

The depositions of all the witnesses examined, with the
exception of Cuckson and his daughter, in the case desig-
nated the case of John Stewart, having been read, sworn to,
and signed,
Mr. Weir (of Messrs. Freshfield's house) stated that these
two witnesses would, no doubt, reach town in the course of
the day, and would attend upon his Lordship at the moment
of their arrival, in order to be formally sworn to their state-
ments.

The Lot". MAYOR—I shall most willingly attend at the
Giltspur-street Compter.
The following is an account of the sums of money stated to
have been obtained by means of the wills alleged to have
been forged upon the evidence which has already appeared
in detail before the public :
IN THE CASE OF ANNE SLACK-3,500/. Consols; 1,151/.
Ss. 10d. dividend. _

THE 6AFIEOF ELIZA BURCHARD--300i. Consols ; 162/.
dividend-7001. Three-and-a-Half Reduced ; 446/. ss.
dividend.

IN THE CASE OF JOHN STEwART-511. per annum Long
Annuities ; 7391..105. dividend.
IN THE CASE OF MARY HUNT-1,210 Consols; 4351. 12s.
dividend.

It. has been stated in some of the newspapers that a clerk
in the Bank of England had been discovered to have been an
accomplice in these transactions, and that he had made com-
munications which completely involved Barber in the
guilt of forging the wills. The report, as far as regards
evidence affecting Barber, is incorrect. There has been no
statement made, we are given to understand, by any person
in the establishment relative to the participation of Barber
beyond that with which the public has been made acquainted
through the medium of the press, at the several examinations
which have taken place. It is true, however, that a clerk in
the Bank has acknowledged that he had supplied the prisoner
Fletcher with information from the Bank books as to the
amounts, and other particulars, in every one of the cases on
which the prisoners are to be committed. It is understood
that time individual we allude to gave the information to
Fletcher corruptly, but it is understood that he was not at all
cognizant of the object of Fletcher, which was not, as he con-
jectured, to find out the existing representatives of deceased
parties, but to create representatives by false wills and false
personations.
Some statements have been also made relative to Mrs.
Dorey, which it is necessary to notice. Pitragraphs have
appeared, representing that she made a confession of all the
circumstances in the transactions in which she has been
charged with having been concerned, several days ago. She
has made a statement, which she declares to be correct, but
it certainly was not made until Thursday, the'day laefore the
examination, included in the above account. The pFticu"
lars of her statement are kept strictly private. One circum-
stance, however, we believe, has appeared in the midst of her
representations. In the case of Eliza Burchard, whom she
represented, when she went to perform her part in that
piece, she found upon entering the room that everything had
been put in a state of complete preparation by Barber and
Fletcher. We are not aware what degree of credit is at-
tached to the communications which she has made, but it is
very currently reported that she had previously expressed
great anxiety to make statements, and that they were found
to have been concocted in such a manner as showed that her
only object was to serve herself.
It will be remembered that Mr. Freshfield stated on a
former occasion, that where a party impugned the transfer
by the Commissioner for the Reduction of the National Debt
of stock to another party, a duty was imposed by Act of
Parliament on the party defrauded to follow the person who
wrongfully obtained the money as well as the money itself,
and that Mr. Baxter, the solicitor of Miss Slack, was pre-
paring a bill in Chancery for that purpose. We understand
that a bill was yesterday accordingly filed in the Court of
Chancery by Miss Slack, claiming the two sums of 1,000/.
and 3001. secured to Fletcher as the deposit notes of the
London and Westminster Bank, referred to in the depositions
of the 10th and 13th April, 1843, and which sums have
been placed as part of the proceeds of the forgeries with
winch Fletcher and the other parties stand charged.

TEE UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE FOR MARCH.—
Among the many interesting papers to be found in the pre-
sent Number of the United Service Magazine, the most at-
tractive is undoubtedly Captain Postans " Reminiscences of
Biluchi and Brahoi Campaigns in Upper Sindh and Cutchi,
during 1839 and 1840." This narrative, written from per-
sonal observation, by a gentleman lately holding both mili-
tary and official appointments in the country he describes,
contains much interesting information respecting that sin-
gular people, the Beloochees and their Chiefs, not hitherto
made public, in a graphic notice of many stirring adventures
that preceded the subjection of their celebrated leader Bijar
Khan. By such as are desirous of learning the character of
the inhabitants of the recent acquisition to our empire in
India, this paper cannot fail of being read with unusual inte-
rest; and to both professional and non-professional readers,
the March Number of the Magazine of which -it forms one
feature will be found more than usually replete with enter-
tainment.
