LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.—Jems 89.
• sLitzltorou V. COPELAND.
BREACM oiFttostist or Ma n elarlX.—The plaintiff, a young
lady, brought this action by her 'beat friend, to recover a com-
pensation in damages, for breach of promise of marriage.
Mr. SC:A.IIE4:w stated the. case. Miss Elkington was the
daughter of respectable attorney in Birmingham. The defendant,
a surgeon and chemist, having an establishment in London. The
parties became acquainted in 1825, at an evening party, which
met at the house of a mutual friend. The defendant was so much
taken by the personal charms and accomplishments of Miss El-
kington, that he used ell the means in his power to obtain a.
regular introduction to her family. He became the friend of her
brother, and was admitted as a familiar acquaintance by.her
father. After a short interval, the defendant declared his affec-
tion for the plaintiff by letter; and resorted to all those expression
which generally show a marked attachment. He described his
prospects in life; stated his .circumstances to .be favourable, and
that his business was increasing. His propoials having been sent
to the plaintiff's father, Mr. Elkington said he should give his
daughter no money ; hut, if the addresses of the defendant were
received by her, he should throw no obstacle in the way of their
happiness. The match was then agreed on, and the marriage
fixed by the defendant for April. To prove how the parties stood
towards each other, Mr. Scarlett said he would give the Jury a
specimen of their epistolary correspondence. He accordingly read
a letter, expressing the warmest affection for the plaintiff. Seve-
ral letters had been written in the same strain, and in one the de-
fendant mentioned a scheme for settling in Mexico, under the pa-
tronage of some emigrant Spaniards with whom he was connected.
A long silence then ensued between them, which led to his fare-
well, and the abandonment of his promise. What the circum-
stances were that occasioned the change he could not tell. The
defendant's statement on the subject was ambiguous, and would be
best explained by the letters which broke off the prnmise. It
was, on the whole, a case for damages. The defendant, in a series
of letters, held out the promise of marriage. He had finally de-
ceived the plaintiff, whose mental and bodily suffering would be
described to the Jury. They would then take care that the
peace of young and virtuous females should not be invaded with
impunity.
Charles Elkington, brother of the plaintiff, stated that, being
in London in June 1824, the plaintiff Caroline and her sister were
sent to his house. lie saw the defendant frequently. The latter
talked,about his ulster, and, expressed an attachment to her.—(The
first letter from the defendant declaring his attachment was then
put in and read.)--,The witness's father was in town when the
first letter was written, awl the proposals of the defendant were
aubmitted tb him. The witness called upon -the dirfendant, who
carried on business as a chemist and druggist in the New-road,
and Carshalton-street. , lie told the defendant his father was eatis-
fied with his prOposals. The defendant said all he wanted was
Caroline, and entered into some`explanation about his circum-
stances. He was then living, he said, in a very good house not
entirely furnished, and that he had another holm in town. After
that interview the defendant'a vigils were frequent ; lie walked
out with the witness'', sister, and on one, occasion bought a carpet,
whidi he tulil witness was purchased by Caroline. He mentioned
to the witness, that in consequence of services he had rendered
some Spanish emigrants he was invited to settle in Mexico, and
that he should return in three years . with an ample fortune. He
went to the Panorama of Mexico, to explain it to WitOttla'S sister.
He was wilted when he meant to start, lie :said in May following,
hut he would not go without the. plaintiff. The witness, after
that conversation, went to Birmingham, and did not see the de..
fendant again until about a week since. _ He bad been under some
embarrassments, bat had nothing to reproach himself with as to
thl4e ereharresements, which were occasioned by the failure of
other poisorw.
Several other letters from the defendant to the plaintiff; written
in the Nun • t arreettonate manner as the former letters,
were put in
and read.
that in which the defendant Stated the utter
impossibility of their union. The defendant war induced to break
off the match On the,ground of his inability to maintain a wife ha
comfort. The letter also spoke of pecuniary aid having been ob-
tained, front his father.
William Elkington, also brother to -the plaintiff, Pret
when she received the Letter which broke off the ;vetch. His

shier, when she received it, left the room, and was taken with vio-
lent hysterics. Her health had beenliad since.
Mr. GuRNEY here observed that no case had been made out, as
the first count stated that the defendant had promised marriage,
which did not appear in evidence. '
Mr. CHITTY contended that the promise of marriage had been
distinctly proved.
The Luau CHIEF ius,rier said, the effect of the letters read in
evidence was a promise to marry within a reasonable time.
Mr. Guests,- then addressed the Jury for the defendant.—He
was one who thought actions of this sort well laid, when a strong
case could be made out; but in this case the plaintiff had not a
strong claim to damages. The father, who was an attorney
carrying on business at Birmingham, sent a couple of daughters to
the house of a son in London, and that sou a single man. ma
Jury would observe how short the acquaintance of the defendant
and tlii4 young lady was. The defendant continued his friendship
with the brother until his affairs became embarrassed ; and then
he wrote, stating that it was impossible the marriage could take
place. He was instructed not to utter one word against the
young lady ; bid he could not help saying the action had been
brought in great haste. If it was impossible for the. defendant to
marry without a prospect of the means of subsistence, was it not
better to defer the match? No. The father of the plaintiff did
not think so. An action must be brought, and it appeared that
lie liked an action better than the marriage.
The Loan Cum jusute left the Jury to say what damages
the plaintiff ought to receive.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 2501.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, GUILDHALL, JUNE 29.

HANNAN V. TKEVYTT.

This was an action brought by the Plaintiff, who is a wine-
merchant, to recover compensation in damages for the loss he
sustained through the false and fraudulent representations of the
defendant, whereby he was induced to give goods to a consider-
able amount on credit to William Dunham, who subsequent-
ly becaine' insolvent, without having paid for the goods.—
It appeared that William Dunham had kept a public-house in
Coleman-street, in July 1825; he applied to the plaintiff for
some wine and spiritual liquors on credit, referring him as to
character, to defendant, who told plaintiff that he thought
he should be very safe in .trusting him; in consequence
thereof, be gave him wipes to the amount of 450/., which
was not long in his possession, until it was seized
under an execution on a warrant of attorney, by the defendant,
and the execution was for 8541. but the defendant levied only
SOU, and came in as a petitioning creditor for the remainder,
after Dunham became a bankrupt, which was within a month
after the execution. From this it was inferred that the
defendant had collusively recommended Dunham in order
that he might seize on the goods for his own purpose.
J. May examined—Witness was clerk to the plaintiff in August
last year. He knew Mr. Trevett ; had some conversation with
Trevett in July. He learnt that Dunham had taken a public-
house called the Three Tuns, in Coleman-street, and expressed to
Trevett his desire to deal with Dunham. Trevett afterwards in-
troduced him to Dunham. Witness said to Dunham, that if he
wished to go to the docks he would take him. They, in conse-
quence, all three went on the 9th or I Oth of August. Dunham
then ordered three pipes of wine. Witness then said to Trevett,
" I suppose Dunham is perfectly safe—as safe as the Bank, I sup-
pose?" Trevett replied, " Yes, for any thing I know to the
contrary." Witness had received orders from his employers to
inquire into Dunham's respectability. In consequence of this re-
presentation of Trevett'e, Dnnham's order was executed. After-
wards a puncheon of brandy and a puncheon of rum were sent
him in. The total amounted to 364/. ss. 3d. The wine was
sold at two months' credit, and the ruin and brandy at four
month,. When it was due, lie went and applied for the money,
but had not been able to get it.
Crosi-examined.—lt was witness's business to solicit orders,
and he was to receive a gratuity at Christmas, according to the
number of orders he procured. No orders were executed except
with references. Witness inquired of Dunham's son, who was at
variance with his father. He roads no enquiries of any body else ;
told his employer that he had. He solicited Dunham to give an
order before he made any enquiry of Trevett. Dunham gave an
order for a dozen of wine before he made any enquiry of Trevett ; I
but the order• was not executed till the 18tli of August., No con-
versation Byer took place in which Trevett expressed a bad opinion
of Duitharies solvency. Witness thought Duallam's circumstan-
ces were good from Trevett'a introducing him to him. When the
' execution was put in, he did not complain to Trevett of having
deceived him. The reason why he did not complain was, that
Ildr. 'Hannan, his employer, thought it was a conspiracy between
Trevett. and Dunham, and litr...lboman wished him to get all the
information he could out of Trevett. Myatt showed while,*
his hooks, awl said that he had an account with Dunham since
1818, which was not settled. Trevett said then, that he thought
Dunham was able, and would pay him, and that the reason of
his entering up judgment was to frighten Dunham.
After some further evidence, Mr. Sergeant VA lIGHA 1,,t addressed

the Jury for the defendant, and commented upon the evidence
adduced for the plaintiff at considerable length ; he said he should
call evidence to show that the account given by May was anything
but correct.

Richard Mareiumt boarded in the house of Dunham et the time
of the occurrence; heard May (an agent to the plaintiff), say,
that he was credibly informed that Dunham was worth 10,0001.,
.end that he would get an order for him for any amount, and would
make a customer of him to the plaintiff.
Thomas Penny was present when May and , Trevett were to-
gether, it was the day after they were at the docks. May
said, " I shall make a good customer of Dunham, for he has
bought some wine of me." Trevett asked what wine?. May re-
plied, port and sherry. That he bad been informed he was worth
10,000/. Defendant, said he could not believe it, as Dunhain
WAS not worth 10,000. farthings. This was in August, the day
after they had been at the dock; Trevett said, as he owed him
a large sum of money, and he was worth so much money, he
thought he might pay him. May said, " I know nothinkof that,
but if not worth money,, thst.house, is a fortune to, him."
Harriet Trevett saw Mr. May at her father's house; he turned
up a card and saw W., Dunham, Three Inns, Coleman-street;
he paid do you know Dunham; father said I know him well;
May said, if it doss not, offend you, I shall make a good customer
of hint; I have given hint some orders to go to the docks ;
defendant said it could not offend him. This was the 2d or
3d of August ;• May said Dunham was worth ten thousand
pounds.; defendant said he was not worth so many farthings.
The Loan Cumar JUSTICS summed up, and the Jury having
retired for an hour and a half, found a verdict for the plaintiff-:-
Damages 364/. be. 3d.
This case, with the exception of a few undefended causes, oc-
cupied the Court the whole of the day. In the course of the
trial, the Lord Chief Justice observed, that Mr. Sergeant Vaughan
had no Junior to assist him, as the gentleman who ought to have
attended was' absent. His Lordship . said it was a disrespect
showed to the Court, which he was sorry to observe in some of
the bar, as the interests of the Counsels' parties wes compromised.
Besides, the Practice of taking the fees without doing the work
was lowering their station 'hi society. It was moat scandalbus,
and he hoped he should not have occasion to notice it again.

ADMIRALTY COURT.

TUlg ISKA )(STOW.

This was a cause of salvage brought by John Mort Bate, a'
Lieutenant in the Royal. Navy, against John Wilson, the master
and sole owner of the ship and freight, and against the owners or
consignees of the cargo.
The faOs are briefly these. The raid ship being at Rio de
Janeiro in August last, Lieutenant Bate (who bad arrived there
as mate' of the Lady Nugent) wishing to return to England, en-
gaged as a passenger on board the Bransion, and agreed with the
master to pay t7l. 10s. for his said passage, part thereof being
Paid at the tune, and the remainder when they arrived in London,
The ship having taken on board a cargo of rosewood, eofiee, and
other, merchandize, sailed from Rio de Janeiro on the 6th day of
August lait, on her return to London. It was sworn to by Lieut.
Bate and three of the seamen, that, on tbe 2 let of September
last, the ship encountered a severe storm, which did considerable
damage to the said ship, and that the Captain being very much
alarmed, and totally incapable of managing or navigating her, gave
the sole charge of her to Lieutenant Bate, who then Proceeded oto
do what was needful 16 i'a've the said ship and crew; and after
considerable exertion and receiving several severe contulione, he
succeeded in weathering the said storm ; and that by suck exicr.
tions he (Lieutomui Bate) saved the said ship frotif tleitruction,
fur which ht claimed salvage : Lieutenant Bate also cbargsd the
master with tearing out-several of the leaves from the lug book,
and making false entries

The statement of Lieut. Bate was (lensed on oath by Captain
Wilson, the Mate, and Cook, who said that the usual rum paid for
passengers on hoard merchantmen was 461. and that Captain Wil-
son agreed to take *7l. 10s. for the passage of Lieutenant Bate,
upon an agreement that he was to make himself generally useful,
which he did during the said passage borne; and that during the
said storm he Only acted in munition with the crew under the di-
redion of the Matter or Mate; and that he did not receive any
injury in so doing ; that the Master or Mate never gave up the
charge of the chip to the said Lieutenant Bate either directly or
indhletlY but that they, or one of them, were alwaye in emu-
mend of the said-ship. That Captain WilsOurbeintottbsige of
137 years, 25 of which he has bon a mariner) cud twist! to :limit

parts of tin globi t that for 11 yearn pait he has been a Mailer,
and commanded ships several times to Rio de Janeiro' and else-
where, and back ; and has also been in the transport service, and
being well acquainted with the navigation, is fully capable of
taking the charge and management of ships trading to the Bra-
sile or elsewhere. It was also sworn by the Mate that all the en-
tries in the log book were made by him and not by the Master, nor
any other person ; nor did the Master or any one else tear any 'of
the leaves out, or make any false entries; that the log book being
damaged in the storm, several leaves came out, but they had no
entries on them; and that, it having been dried, a new cover was
made to it ; the ink being lost, the entries were afterwards made
by him (the Mate) in pencil, and when the ship arrived at Rams-
gate, were re-entered by him in ink.
Doctors Lushington and Dodson were heard at considerable
length, on behalf of Lieutenant Bate, and prayed the Judge to
award a considerable sum as salvage to their client.
Dr. Jenner (with whom was Dr. Phillimore) was heard in re-
ply, on behalf of Captain Wilson and the owners of the cargo;
and submitted to the Court that, from the proofs adduced, and
the whole that had been stated on behalf of Lieutenant Bate, the
owners of the ship and cargo had been forced before the Court,
at considerable expence, and the character of Captain Wilson
bad been attacked without the least foundation, for so doing; he
should not therefore trouble the Court by going through the
merits of the case, but merely pray his parties to be dis-
missed from the suit, and Lieutenant Bate to be condemned in
costs.

The Judge (Lord Stowell) being of the same opinion as Dr.
Jenner, rejected the claim made by Lieut. Bate, saying, that it
was a most scandalous and ungracious demand.:

HIGH COURT OF JUSTICIARY, EDINBURGH.
SPRING GUNS.

On Monday, James Craw, gamekeeper to the Earl of Home,
was put to the bar, accused of wilful murder, having, on the let
of February last, loaded a spring gun with powder and shot, which
he placed in the Hersel plantations, and attached a wire or string
to the trigger, whereby John Guthrie, son of the late James
Guthrie, carrier in Coldstream, who having trespassed in the said
plantation in quest of game, came in contact with the said string,
which caused the gun to be discharged, and the contents lodged in
the knee of the said John Guthrie—who died in consequence of
the wound, on the 28th March last.
The prisoner pleaded not guilty.
Mr. COCKBURN said, that upon the main facts of this case—
that a spring-gun had been set within the Hersel plantation, and
that a man had come by his death in consequence of trespassing,
both parties were agreed. But there was still a grave, and hi-
therto untried, question in this country involved, whether it was
illegal to set spring-guns without notice, and being illegal, whether
it justified so serious a charge as that preferred against the pannel.
It was his opinion, and that of his Learned Friend (Mr. Jeffrey),
who appeared with him, that no verbal argument could supersede
that more grave mode of disposing of new questions which was
usual in that Court.

The LORD ADVOCATE admitted that it was of great importance
to have a solemn decision of the Court on this question. He was
not quite prepared to go into any lengthened verbal discussion,
and should therefore agree to written pleadings, provided that they
Were seen and interchanged by an early day.
The COURT then ordered informations to be lodged before the
first and second box-days--and the diet was continued against
Craw till the 14th of November.
MURDER.

Peter Moffatt, junior, was next put to the bar, ,on a charge
with the wilful murder of his father, Peter Moffat, late carter in
Kilsyth, having, on the 2il day of April, 1822, assaulted and at-
tacked the said Peter Moffat with a knife, or other lethal instru-
ment, and inflicted several wounds in the belly of his father,
whereof he died in four days thereafter.
The fact having been proved by two witnesses, the LORD
JUSTICE CLaRK summed up, and the Jury, after an absence of a
very few minutes, returned a verdict " finding the paunch guilty
as libelled."
The LORD JUSTICE alum then read the sentence of the Court,
ordaining the paunch to be executed at Stirling, on Friday the 28th
July next, and his body thereafter to be given to Dr. Munro for
dissection.

The pannel is a very dull looking young man,' about 21 or 22
years of age. He seemed to feel his situation most acutely, never
lifting his *ices from the floor, and often shedding tears during the
course of the day. We hear that before the trial he anticipated
the worst, and was thereby prepared, in come measure; for the sen-
tence of condemnation, which he heard with apparent composure.
His mother and sister were in attendance as witnesses, but neither
were called ; after the trial was over, the former had to be led
from the Court-room, supported by two men, apparently sufferiog
au indescribable agony of mind.

A considerable number of English workmen who
had gone to France in search of work, have arrived at Boulogne—
sur-bier lately, on their way home, in great distress. To pre►ent
a recurrence of these unhappy emigrations, the treasurer of the
fund raised at Boulogne for the relief of the distressed English,
has given notice that in future assistance will be afforded only in
cases of local distress. •

lately (13th instant) burnt to death in Rose-street. He had been
for many years a gentleman's servant, aria latterly occupied a low
damp cellar in Ilose.strest. .This wretched being denied himself
every comfort and convenience of life,—not a bed, chair, or table,
was in his hovel. After the accident, the place was searched,
when there were found bankers' receipts for the enormous sum of
14991. 13s. 10d., besides the title-deeds of household property
exceeding 1100/. in value ! IVIr. Cowie, hair-dresser, who lives
immediately above Macwilliam's holm, has observed that the
miser wore thcsame outer garments' fin• upwards of 15 years.—

The drought with which we have been visited for
the last two moqlot still continues, without any prospect of a
change. In the early part of list week, we had some cool brew*
from the east, but on Saturday the wind veered to the west, in
which quarter it still continues. The heat on Saturday and yes.
terday was quite oppressive, the thermometer in the shed. en
both days being so high as V 2. The effects of the drought are
seriously felt in the country. Most of the rivulets are dried tip,
and the rivers, wanting so many of their tributary streams, are so
diminished, that the grain mills and other public work on their
banks are either shut up, or working only a few hours a day, for
want of water. The wells and ponds about country houses are in
many places dried up, and the farmers are consequently under the
necessity of either carting their water for their cattle from a dis-
tance, or driving their cattle to the stream. The grain mills driven
by steam in town are at present extremely throng, in consequent.,
of the scarcity of water to drive the mills in the.country.—Edin-.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL —A man applied for a summons against tke
Churchwardens of St. Sepulchre's, calling on them to show cause
why they should not cancel a bond, into which himself and two
friends had entered, guaranteeingto the parish the payment of ss.
a week, for the support of a natural Child, At the time this bond
was entered into, he was in flourishing circumstances; but he was
now in poverty, and his bondsmen had been paying the ss. out of
their own pockets. He wished the Alderman to diminish the
allowance, so as to suit hisreduced means. Mr. Alderman BIRCH
assured the applicant he had no power over the stipulations of
the bond. Nothing but the kindness of the Churchwardens, in
forbearing to press their legal demand, could be of any service
to him.

A solemn looking little fellow, an attorney's clerk, was held to
bail, for annoying a respectable married female, whom he beet
in the Poultry, and followed through Cheapside, using shameful
language, and improper solicitations. Mr. CL Steele, of the Bank,
observing the efforts of the lady to rid herself of the fellow's im-
portunities, interfered, and on hearing the particulars, gave hint
into custody. The prisoner pleaded intoxication, and his being iu
a state of irritation from the heat of the weather; but this plea
satisfied neither the Alderman nor the lady's husband.
LAMBETH-STREET.— George Sinclair, a youth belonging
to Maryport, in Devon, who came to London about three weeks
since in the Dryad, of Whitehaven, was charged with attempting
to drown himself in the City Canal, on Wednesday night. The
constable said, he understood the cause of his attempt, was the
coolness of his sweetheart, who refused to walk with him that
evening. The prisoner himself ascribed it to his distress, at
not having the means of returning to the country. He was sent
to the workhouse for the present.

LEWES MARKET.
TvaaDAY, JUNZ 27.—Beef produced from 4s. 2d. to 41. 6d. ;
Mutton, 4s. Bd. to 51. Od., but little sold at that price; Lamb,
51. Od. to hs. 4d. ; and Veal, 4s. Bd. to ss. Od. per stone.
Trade very sluggish, but most of the Sheep and Lambs, which
were pretty numerous, were ultimately sold. A considerable
number of the Beasts were, from want of . new owners, driven
back to their pasturage.
