Captain Arthur Wheliy Owen was indicted for as-
saulting Edwin Davis, on bard A tt.sgel called the Fairy
Queen, on the high seas, within the jurisdiction of the

lath of July last. The jury having consulted for some
time, prayed leave to retire. After being absent for
more than an hour, they came into Court and delivered

William Latham and John Simmonds, two respectable
looking men, were charged at Union Hall with refusing
to pay the difference between Ist and 2d class fare from
Kingston to Nine Elms, and the former defendant was
also charged with using indecent language in the station-
house. whereby he incurred a further penalty of 40s.
Both defendants said that with regard to the charge of
defrauding the company, they had no such intention ;
that as they were not in the habit of travelling by rail-
way, they went into the first-class carriages, thinking
they were the right ones. Mr. Traill said that it was
most improbable they could have mistaken first for se-
cond•nclass carriages, and that they were bound to have
known or to have paid the difference in the fares when it
was demanded of them. The Magistrate then inflicted
a fine of 20s. each on the defendants for that offence, and
an additional 20s. on Latham for his indecent conduct in
the station-house.
