FEAVER'S EMBROCATION for GOUT,
RHEUMATISM, TIC DOLOREUX, &e.
Copy of a Letter addressed by Trevor Holland, Esq., Surgeon,
of Carmock, near Walsall, Staffordshire, on the 6th July last,
to the Editor of the " Times :"
" Sir,—l think it a duty I owe to the public to make known
the efficacy of a remedy which I met with accidentally, and
which has been of such wonderful benefit to myself. . Stone
months ago I met with a very severe accident, having; dislo-
cated and fractured any ancle severely. From the great tender-
ness of the joint I was quite unable to walk, the limb con-
tinued very much swollen and adematons, and I suffered
dreadfully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, !which
extended from the ancle to the leg, thigh, back, and 'to the
arms. Having exhausted every resource of relief which I and
my medical friends in the country could suggest, ,to no
purpose, I set out for (London with the intention of con-
sulting Sir Benjamin Brodie or Mr. Liston—then to adopt sea-
bathing. By accident I met with Mr. Feaver, 16 Ludgate-hill,
who applied his Embrocation, and, to my great astonishinent,
I had no spasm that night, nor have I had one since. The next
morning I came down stairs without my crutches, add was
able' to walk, the swelling of the limb soon subsided, and I am
now rapidly recovering. Having for many years had an ex-
tensive medical practice in the county of Stafford, I know of
no medicinal compound possessing such wonderful efficacy.
In adding my testimony to Mr. Feaver's Embrocation, I am ac-
tuated by no other motive than gi aAitude to him, and a sincere
desire to make known his invaluable remedy to my fellow-suf-
ferers. Po,sessing, as I, ever did, the strongest prejudice
against everything in the shape of quackery, I should be the
last man to uphold a system which, generally speaking, I know
to be nothing but a nefarious traffic and humbug.
" I am, your obedient servant,
" TREVOR HOLLAND, Surgeon.
" Carmock, near Walsall, Staffordshire.
" P. S. At the various consultations held up)n my case, the
surgeons and physicians (including myself) were decidedly of
opinion that the frequent violent attacks of spasms would ter-
minate in lock-jaw, but, as I have before stated, I have not
had the slightest symptoms of spasms since the first application
of this extraordinary embrocation.—T. H."
This justly-celebrated remedy (which is equally effiCacious
in any of the above afflictions) may be obtained of, or through
any respectable wholesale or retail Chemist in Town or
Country, at the Depot, corner of Wellington-street, Strand;
or from the Proprietor, Mr. Feaver, 16, Ludgate-hill, London.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

GLOBE.—The Times, whose conduct with regard
to the bribery question has been regulated entirely
with a view to the election of Mr. Walter for Not-
tingham, puts forth some curious remarks this morn-
ing upon the Ipswich case, and insinuates a doubt
whether the decision arrived at by the Committee can
be sustained as a precedent. There cannot be a
doubt in the mind of any unprejudiced person that the
facts set forth in the resolution, by which Lord Desart
ani Mr. Gladstone are declared to have been,
"through their agents, guilty of bribery at the
last election," are sufficient in law, as well as in
reason, to have subjected them to the loss of their
seats ; for though the instances of bribery were petty,
and by no means numerous, the principle of ob-
taining a majority by corrupt influences was
clearly acted on. The Tories at Ipswich carried
the election of their candidates by bribery ; and
though the amount was inconsiderable, they have
no right to take credit for a moderation
which was only occasioned by the integrity of
the Liberals, who refused to resort to illicit prac-
tices. Thus their Conservative antagonists were left
to triumph at a small pecuniary cost, though at a total
sacrifice of principle, of which the whole is abandoned
when one iota is surrendered. The amount of bribery
really has no more to do with the gravity of the offence,
than the smallness of the sum found in the pockets of
a traveller can extenuate the ,guilt of a highwayman
who empties them. In the latter case the culprit takes
all he can get, as in the Ipswich affair the offending.
parties gave all that was requisite for effectingtheir ob-
ject. The election was carried by corruption, and
while the law declares that the bribery of voters shall
disqualify those who have practised it from retain-
ing their seats, it would be dangerous indeed to
allow that the offence might be committed with
impunity within certain—or, what is worse, un-
certain—limits. If this were permitted, the purity
of one party would always ensure the easy
triumph of the other ; for, if the former should
abstain on principle from the smallest violation
of the freedom of election, it would only be necessary
for the other side to make easy terms with the corrupt
voters, of whom there will always be in every place a
certain number. As there would be no competition,
they might be forced to take such a price as would
keep the whole amount within the limits to which—
according to the Times—if bribery was confined, it:.
ought to be considered venial.
‘STANDARD.—In the House of Lords, last
night, Lord Brougham, in a long and highly ani-
mated speech, moved a resolution, calling upon the
Queen's Government to take into consideration the
present state of the trade in slaves, With a view to its
complete suppression. We tell Lord Brougham that as
long as he and others maintain the sacred inviolability
of the pretended rights of " capital" [the soft name
for the money power tyrant] at home, capital will
claim to exercise the same rights abroad, and, what is
worse, will make the claim with success. You cannot
engage the people to arrest capital in the prosecution of
an African slave trade, while they see capital indulged as
it is in a white slave trade in Manchester. You may rail
as eloquently even as Lord Brougham at the cruelty
of tearing negroes from the Gold Coast to labour in
Cuba or Brazil, but you will command no public
sympathy while you support a New Poor •law that
drives the rustic infants of Devon and Somerset to
perish in the mills of Lancashire and Yorkshire ;
the physical change is equally great, and of the two
cases the moral change is altogether more favour-
able in the black slave trade. You make both
but at least you do not
you too certainly cor-
rupt the whites. In one word, then, if you
blacks
deprave and
th ew hfiotreisn
er,
would engage the people so earnestly and so mil •
etNcyteilde,
versally as is necessary to suppress a foreign
slave trade, you must rid the country of that
false hard-hearted philosophy which severs moral
and religious feeling from legislation and. state
policy—you must teach wealth to obey the laws,
instead of placing wealth above them. Let eachman's
property, be it much or little, be secure ; but then,
let the rich be taught.: that they must not em-
ploy.their wealth to - the destruction of that: corn--munity which protects them—be taught, in "short,
that society does not exist to make • the rich richer,
and the poor consequently poorer, but to eqUalise,
and in equalising to improve, the condition of all, 1s
far as is possible consistently with justice, that is,
with securing to each the fruit of his own or his an-
cestors' labour. Before we.can venture this outrage
upon the majesty of capital we have a great deal to un-
learn—many books, many speeches, some Acts of Par—
liament, must first be.burned—but the holocaust, we
can assure Lord Brougham must precede any
effectual measure for the extinction of the slave
trade. His Lordship will bring in a Bill to prevent
the investment of British capital in slave trading,
but no Bill can serve the purpose, because no Bill can
prevent the lending of money at high interest, if not
directly to slave dealers, to those who will in turn
lend it to slave dealers, hle may put off the crime in
form a step or two, but there is nothing save a moral
feeling which c3n prevent the crime in substance;
and that moral feeling cannot obtain
in a country
cursed by the prevalence -of the new philosophy

The Alfred, from Sydney, brings pfipers to the
26th of March. The markets generally continued in. ati

of good quality. The amount of business done had been

covered herself considerably in the latter place. De-
fendant's wife was sleeping in a room immediately over
the kitchen, and a young lady, a visitor, in a room di-
rectly above the breakfast-parlour. After defendant had
committed the offence, he went up and shaved himself.
She took some hot water up to the young ladies soon
after, but did not complain to anybody until the evening
of the following day, which was Sunday, when she told
Thomas Farmer, a postman, who went to Market Bos-
worth, eight miles, off, where her father resided, of . what
hadhaPpened, and desired Mtn to tell her father to fetch
her away. She was much ,distressed in mind, and the
Obstmart cibSeriing it, invited her to a gin-shop, where
she had a glass of something to drink. Iler brother
came to see her the next morning ; she told him that the
defendant- had ill-used her. She did not say what he.
had done, and the following morning he came with his
wife and n.cart to futchher away. On Saturday, eight
daze,. after the. offence had
.been committed, she made a
comidaint to the Magistrates, and the defendant was ap-
prehended on the following Tuesday.
The father Of: the prosecutrix, her brother, his wife;
anti-Par:Tier, `tie postman, were then called to support
the-case-40r- the prosecution. They prevaricated .very,
greatly. -
Mr. Hat; in an argumentative, eloquent, and effective,
.epeeehe addresSod . the: Jury for the . defendant. .The.
Learned Counsel analysed the evidence in support of the
prosecution, and contended that it was. altogether a most
wicked fabrication, the charge having been trumped up
for the slipurpese of extorting money from his. re-
speetable...g eat, The defendant was at the, mercy of
ti e vile Wreteti:who'had laid the charge against him,,
and Whoiii'f& ShMild show to have been ft character' a,
the worst description. Mr. Hill went on to quote froui
Lord fitirenkto the collateralprbofs which should be re-.
quit-ad Of the 'ecaumissiOn-Of the crime, neither of which
had!been adduced in this case.' The woman had not
made; an-y: alarm, although there were persons ininie-
-4iate/y
..hearing—she had not complained, al-
, aheag-h. there were females in the house ;. and a lapse of
week, had;-occurred; before an application had ,been
ifiade to a Magistrate. There were no marks of violence
found upon-her, notwithstanding
.her having described
the struggle as of a most fearful character. Would
she 114'0 herstorylvere true, immediately have com-
municated 'th:e'-fiCe? A woman felt, under such ap•
palling- circumstances, that all other women .were
her friends ;- -that the whole sax was outraged,. and
she would cry -•6-ut from instinct, froni reason, from
every- motive that can influence the human
Uer. haying , been silent , was a damning fact in the
case, ,buthq should prove-enough beside to entitle him to
their verdict. She had stated, forsooth, that she did not
cry out he,Fftyae:she was. so muchngitated. Who ever
Heard of a Wohian so agitated as to lose the use of her
tongue, a weapon given her by Providence for her own
protection, and sometimes for the annoyance of every-
body else.—(Laughter.) The whole story was a base
lie—he could use no milder term—a lie perpetrated upon
the Gospels of God—a foul, a wicked perjury'. In the
breakfast room she said she could not make a noise, be-
cause the defendant grasped her throat violently for
more than five minutes. Did this prevent her crying out
in the kitchen, or in the passage ? But where were the
effects of this violent struggle, this death-like grasp-
ing of the throat ? Who ever heard of such a coin-
bination of violence, with such delicate tenderness—
holding her throat with a grasp of iron, which appeared
to have the effect of a grasp of velvet ? There was not
a mark upon her person. She had taken hot water up
stairs to the ladies immediately after. She had waited in
this very breakfast-parlour upon the defendant and his
family that very morning, and continued in the house for
three days after, without making a complaint to one of its
inmates. She told her tale of woe first to Mr. Farmer, the
postman, and they then adjourned to a gin-shop for con-
solation. The Learned Counsel, after some further re•
marks upon the testimony of the prosecutrix and her
witnesses, proceeded to detail the evidence he should
present to the Jury ; and concluded by saying, that he
asked not for a mitigation of punishment, but for a total
acquittal.
Mr. I)ain, an architect, and Mr. Poole, a builder, were
then called to prove that from experiments which they
had made, the most trifling noise in the kitchen or break-
fast-parlour of the defendant's house could be heard in
the rooms over them.

Mr. John Bucknald, a surgeon, at Market Bosworth,
who had been twenty-eight years in practice there, said
that he was sent for to examine the prosecutrix on the
17th of April, eight days after the offence was alleged to
have been committed. He found injuries on her person
which he was confident she must have inflicted herself
immediately before, for the purpose of deceiving him ;
they had entirely disappeared the next day, which would
not have been the case had they been of long duration.
He did not know the prosecutrix, but he thought it right
to caution her as to the statements she made to him.
She at first told him that she had been a virtuous woman
up to the 9th of April, but afterwards admitted that she
had lived with a man called James Mantle, at Abberley,
in Worcestershire, where she had lived with her grand-
father.

Mr. Henry Lingin, son of a clergyman at Abberley,
who had in consequence communicated with the clergy-
man of Hinckley, stated that whilst the prosecutrix lived
at Abberley she was a most abandoned, debauched, an.l
profligate character, and he could not believe her on her
oath. Her grandfather worked as a labourer with his
father.

A person named Stainforth was called to prove that
he had lived with the prosecutrix.
The Ltarned JUDGE here stopped the case, and asked
the Jury if they wished to hear any more evidence ?

The l'eremaii—No, my Lord; v:re are all quite satisfied.
Mr. Baron PARKE—I've heard quite enough, too,
gentlemen.
The defendant was then Acquitted. There were
nearly forty witnesses more to be examined, if the case
had proceeded.
This trial, which occupied the Court until four in the
afternoon, finished the business of the Assizes, and Mr.
Baron Parke immediately proceeded to Warwick. Mr.
Justice Patteson was to have opened the commission at
Coventry and Warwick to-day.
A Special Jury cause, `• Lord Harborough v. Ken-
dall." which would have lasted at least two days, was
made a remanet.

Warwick. Aug. 2.
The Commission was opened here last night, and the
Learned Judges attended Divine service this morning,
and proceeded to the Courts about 12 o'clock, Mr. Jus-
tice Patteson presiding in the Crown Court, and Mr.
Baron Parke at Nisi Prius.

then decamped, after having tied the hands and feet :of
himself and his sister with some rope-band, a material
used by silk-weavers, in which trade the prisoners are
employed. William Pennington was first apprehended.
Mr. Scott, clerk 'to the Magistrates, came in while ke
was in the lock-up, and during the conversation which
ensued, the prisoner burst into tears, and said h i
would tell all. He said, " Our Peter, Bill Flea h
(Wilde), Cricket (Hodkinson), aua myself, all
met together on the Thursday ab it one o'clock
at our house. 'We made it up to go and rob
that house. We met again at night. Marcroft came
and brought a crowbar, and an old pair of trousers.
Marcroft should have gone, but failed in heart. We
then blackened one another's faces with blackball, soot,
and grease. We went to the house. Bill flesh pushed
the window out. I went up stairs first myself, and the
door was opened. I got in and got hold of Jacob Scoles,
and prevented him getting out of the window. He
thrust the pike through my shoe into my foot. It was
very ill swelled. Bill Flesh took the money off the cor-
nice. When I was coming back, they sent me forward.
I waited a long time for them in Pollitt's-field, but they
never came near me. I went back, and found them at
my house. We divided the money on our hearth-stone.
We got two sovereigns and a.ha)f each, and 30s. of silver."
On the conclusion of the case for the prosecution, his
LORDSHIP said he thought there was no case against the
prisoner Peter Pennington.
The Jury found both the prisoners guilty. Sentence
deferred.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION HOUSE.
A man named Charles Davis was brought before the
Lord Mayor charged with having stolen a set of supe-
rior dinner knives, the property of Mr. Scroxton, of
Bishopsgate-street.
Mr. Scroxton, cutler, of - Bishopsgate, stated that
.
the prisoner applied to him at his shop for two sets of
knives, and said that as much allowance as possible
must be made, and that he wanted them for a customer.
Witness agreed to let the prisoner have an allowance of
los. a set, and sent a boy with him to the customer,
with strong directions not t.) let the knives out of his
sight without the cash, as the appearance of the
prisoner was not at all prepossessing. The prisoner,
however, contrived to steal the best set, which were
worth the sum of 2/. 10S., and which the prisoner was
to have sold for 31.
The messenger of Mr. Scroxton said he accompanied
the prisoner with the two sets of knives. They had
not, however, gone far, when the prisoner expressed a
wish to carry one of the sets,. saying at the same time
that witnes 'looked like a person with both hands lull,
and witness allowed him to take the superior set. When
they arrived at Aldermanhury the prisoner went into
a house, but soon returned, stating that the gentlemen
was not there' according to appointment. They then
went to Carter-lane, and the prisoner went into the pre-
mises of Messrs. Cook and Gladstone, leaving witness
outside. - Witness, after a short delay, not finding the
prisoner return, asked whether there was another door
t 3 the house, and was told that he could pass into St.
Paul's Churchyard by another door,- and he 'soon found
that the prisoner had chosen that way, and taken with
him the knives he had been so improperly allowed to carry.
A policeman, who stated that there were other charges
of the kind against the prisoner, said the knives had
been pledged.
William Butler, hardwareman. of Rosemary-lane, said
he had lent the prisoner a' tainea upon the set of knives
alluded to, and had dealt with him before for knives,
and forks.
The LORD MAYOR—Hive, you bought sets of knives
from him ? Witness—Yes:- -I lately bought two sets
from him.
The prisoner said it was true he had gone into Cook
and Gladstone's premises, and left them by the door in
St. Paul's Churchyard, but he had done so, as there
were several gentlemen standing in the passage to the
door in t'arter-lane. He, however, ran round to Carter-
lane, and found that the boy had been silly enough to go
away.

The calendar contains 83 prisoners, but most 'of the
offences are of a minor character. Upwards of 60 have
been committed within the last month. There are two
cases of infanticide, two of attempt to murder, one of
manslaughter (in which six prisoners are separately
charged), a case of burglary, and several charges of
uttering forged notes of the Bank of England and base
coin. On the Civil side there are 31 causes entered for
trial, three of which are Special Juries.
A notice has just been issued by the Dudley and
West Bromwich Banking Company that they have dis-
covered a forged note of their bank in circulation.

WESTERN CIRCUIT—Bodmin, August 1.
The learned Judges on this circuit arrived at Bodmin
on Saturday, and opened the Commission. Yesterday
they attended Divine service in the noble church of
this place, and will proceed to business at an early hour
to-day.
There is very little business here the causes are few
and in the Crown Court there will be but few prisoners,
as the Court of Quarter Sessions has but terminated its
sittings two or three weeks since, at which all the pri-
soners then in gaol for minor offences were tried.

The prisoner was remanded till Friday.
Isaac Shuck ford was charged with having stolen a
watch, value 61., from a young man named Dutton,
waiter at the Saracen's Head, Aldgate.
The prosecutor, in whose room the prisoner slept,
happened to get tipsy on the 20th ult., and went up
stairs to lie on the bed, and was locked into the bed-
room for safety by another waiter. The prisoner soon
after applied for the key of the room, in order, as he
said, to get some tobacco out of his pocket, but after
visiting the apartment he left the premises, and the pro-
secutor, upon becoming sober, missed his watch. Child,
an active officer of the district, upon hearing of what
occurred, apprehended the prisoner, and learned that
the match had been sold to an outfitter on Tower-hill for
21., by the prisoner.
The prisoner said he never knew anything at all about
the watch, and was surprised at being charged with hav-
ing taken it.—He was committed for trial.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
SHOPLIFTING AT MESSRS. HOWELL AND JAMES'S.—
Mary Ann Davis and Esther Howell, two young and
well-dressed females, both in the family way, and who
were stated to be the wives of respectable mechanics,
were placed at the bar on the following charges of shop-
lifting :
It appeared that between seven and eight on Tuesday
evening the prisoners, in company together, entered the
shop of Messrs. Howell and James, of No. 9, Regent-
street, silk mercers, lacemen, &c., and asked to look at
sonic lace. Several boxes of that article were shown them,
some of which were of a veryvaluable description,and after
examining them for a considerable time, and in a manner
that excited the suspicion of one of the shopmen, they
made a trifling purc%sse, and were about leaving the
premises, when two pieces of lace fell from them on the
floor, but of which they took no notice, but walked
hastily on, without waiting for a shilling change that
was due to them. They were watched as far as St.
Martin's-lane, where they turned up a court, and
appeared to be in the act of arranging a portion of their
dress, when another card of lace, of the value of abou
31., the property of Messrs. Howell and James, and which
was amongst those which had been shown to the prison-
ers, was seen to fall on to the pavement from the person
of the prisoner Howell. They were then given into
custody.
The prisoners were fully committed to Newgate for trial.
A second charge was preferred against the prisoner
Davis, for stealing, on the 3d of last month, under similar
circumstances, at the shop of Messrs. Hayward and Co., of
No. 81, Oxford-street, lacemen, four pieces of lace, of the
value of 10/. Tho property was dropped in the shop be-
fore she left the premises.
Mr. Robinson, the solicitor, attended on behalf of the
prisoners.
The prisoner Davis was fully committed on the second
charge.
BREAKING-UP OF A LOW GAMBLING-HOUSE, AND
CAPTURE OF THE GAMBLERS.—Yesterday, after the
night charges had been disposed of, Mr. Fitzpatrick,
the Chief Clerk, informed Mr. Hardwick, the presiding
Magistrate, that no less than 28 persons were in
custody, waiting their hearing, who had been appre-
hended by the police, at a notorious gambling-house,
at No. 3, Castle-street, Leicester-square, and amongst
them were the proprietor of the " Establishment," and
three of his servants, and the rest " Visitors," for the
greater part blacklegs and scamps.
Mr. HARDWICK said he would take the case as against
the first-mentioned four ; and accordingly
James Gregory, William Winter, Anthony Joseph, and
Abraham Levy were placed at the bar, the former being
charged under the provisions of the 2d and 3d Victoria,
cap. 47, with " being the keeper of a certain gaming
house," and the three latter with having the care and
management and conducting of the same.
Superintendant Baker, of the C division, stated
that in consequence of an order he received from the
Commissioners of Police to enter by force, if necessary,
the house in question, which had been complained of on
oath by two respectable housekeepers of the parish, as a
common gambling-house, and apprehend all persons
found therein, he. proceeded there about ten o'clock on
the previous evening, and found on the premises the four
defendants ; he also found in the " play-room" on the
first floor two card-gaming-tables, one roulette-table,
two tin boxes, one cash-box, twelve dice, two dice-boxes,
two roulette balls, three money-rakes, 3/4 bone-counts rs,
18s. 6d. in silver, and ls. Bd. in copper.
Inspector Beresford of the C division stated, that from
three o'clock on the previous afternoon, until seven in the
evening, he was in plain clothes watching about the
house, and saw Levy nearly the whole of that time act-
ing as door-keeper ; he was stationed outside, and when
any visitor came that he knew, he took a key from his
pocket and unlocked the door, and, after admission had
been obtained, he relocked the door, and returned the
key into his pocket. During the time mentioned, lie let
in upwards of thirty persons. At short intervals, Joseph.
and Winter acted as door-keepers. On proceeding to
enter the house, witness, to prevent Levy from giving an
alarm, rushed forward, as he was standing at the door,
and pinioned his arms, and then took the door-key from
the pockethe had observed him place it in, and gained
admission. On going up stairs into the play-room, the
company were all playing round the tables, and Winter
was sitting at the head of a hazard-table, evidently con-
ducting the game; the bank was in front of him. On
discovering they were detected, a simultaneous rush en-
sued, each seeking to effect his escape, one a slim young
man seized the bank, and jumped clean through one of
the windows, heedless of falling on the spikes of the
area railings, into the street, and escaped. Some of them
were found concealed in the gutters on the roof of the
house, and others in the cellars, water-closets, &c., and
some up the chimneys. The defendant, Gregory, we's
found in a room on the second floor, which he occupied
as his private apartments. Joseph and Winter were
also apprehended on the premises, the former having
thrown himself out of a window on to some adjoining
leads.
Superintendent Baker added that the defendant
Gregory, on his way to the station-house, said it would
not be necessary to produce the tax-collector, to identify
him as the proprietor of the house, as he admitted he
was so.
Mr. HARDWICK said the effect of these low gambling
houses on society was more pernicious than those of a
higher rank ; he should therefore fine the defendant
Gregory in the penalty of 50/. as the keeper of AI com-
mon gaming house, or in default, three months' impri-
sonment to hard labour. Winter he should fine 25/.,
and the two others 151. each, or two months' imprisou-
ment each.
The defendant Gregory in a short time prodwed the
money and was liberated.
The others stated their inability to pay and were com-
mitted in pursuance of their sentence. The remaining
defendants, against whom the charge was confined to
their having been found on the premises without lawful
excuse, were fined 40s. or 14 days' imprisonment.
About five or six paid the penalty, and the rest were
sent to gaol.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT—Liverpool, August 1.
The assizes for the southern division of this county
commenced here to-day, Mr. Baron Maule taking his
seat on the civil side, while Lord Denman presided in the
Criminal Cuurt.

The calendar is not very heavy, either in regard to I
the number of prisoners or the nature of the offences
with which they are charged. There are, however, two
cases of alleged murder, one of manslaughter, three of
robbery, six of forgery, two of cutting and wounding,
and no fewer than eleven of burglary, in which seventeen
persons are implicated. There is one Case of abduction,
in which John M'Gill and others are indicted for felo-
niously taking away Miss Crellin, with intent to cause
her to be married to the said John M‘Gill. This case
has excited a great deal of interest in Liverpool . and the
neighbourhood. :The evidence is extremely voluminous,
and the trial will,. it is expected, occupy several days.
On the civil side 148 causes are entered for trial.!
CROWgr CClllllT.'—(pefore Lord DEN3Lti4.)
William Pennington, IVillidin Wilde, John liodhinson,
and Peter Pennington were indicted for a burglary in the
house of Jacob Seoles, at Chadderton, and stealing
therein a sum of about 301. in gold and silver.
The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Brandt. The
prisoners, William Pennington, Peter Pennington, and
John Hodkinson, were defended by Mr. Wilkins. 'Wil-
liam Wilde pleaded guilty.
It appeared'from the statement of the prosecutor that
on the 31st of March last he_ retired to bed about nine
o'cleck, leaving.his sister up. She also went to bed
about e!even o'clock, having seen that the house was
properly secured. She slept with her child in the same
room with the prosecutor, and they were; both
awakened about one o'clock by hearing a noise at
the bed-room door. They got up, and, looking
through an aperture, saw four men with their' faces
blackened, who were endeavouring to force an entrance.
The doer was fastened with a piece of stick over the
latch, and for some time resisted their efforts.. The
prosecuior seized a pitchfork which was in the ;room,
and 'endeavoured to break open the window, for the pur-
pose of making his escape, but before he hieloc‘oruasld
