at. Kirk Langley, he saw five men, one of whom ran up to and
kid hold of the pony's head. He had a light coat on. Two
of the men had bludgeons, and called out to the prosecutor to
deliver his money, giving him many sever• blows about the
head with their weapons, by which his hat was broken through
and his head much injured. Mrs. Bennett called out, " Don't
murder him, and you shall have all we have got." But ono Of
them called out, and said, "D
—n you, we will murder yoit."
They then proceeded to rifle Mr. Selby's pockets, from which
they extracted the valuable property mentioned in the indict-
ment. The reins were then cut, and the men proceeded te
beat the pony, who started eff, and ran until he came to tit,
next hill. Sims was identified as the person who laid hold of

treated Before the trial concluded they made their appear'
ance, were examined, and the entreat taken off, but their ce.'
penses were ordered not to be paid.

Legal business has a rather unpropitious aspect, at least ers
the junior members of the bar. Then, are only two prisouseh
in the calendar ; of nisi prius business there are six au.„
including two special juries—namely, Davies v. Parry '-
Phillis, Knt., rce.
Whpen it is recollected that much time is taken uP n tof
Welsh Circuits in the examination of witnesses by luesjoys
interpreters, and that some of the witnesses do not goo
evince the readiest perception in examination in chief, orouel,
the drift of occasional cross-fire from an antagonist of
it may safely be said that the Court will be occupied 'P
latter end of the week.
