LAW INT ELLIGENCE.
SHERIFFS' COUR7', March 7.
CRIM. CON.--WALLIS V. FRANCIS. •
This was an action for criminal conversation.
The record set forth that the defendant, William Francis,
"contriving and wrongfully, wickedly, and unjustly, intending
to injure the plaintiff, and to deprive him of the comfort, fellow-
ship, society, aid, and assistance of Louisa, the wife of the
plaintiff, and to alienate and destroy her affection for the plain-
tiff," did on, &c., to the damage of the said William Walls, of
ten thousand pounds.
The defendant suffered judgment to go by default, and a writ
of inquiry to assess the amount of compensation due to the
plaintiff was appointed to be executed to-morrow (this day),
before Mr. Under-Sheriff Burehell, but in order to avoid ex-
posure of the circumstances which gave rise to the action, and
are said to be of an extraordinary character, the affair has been
settled, and the suit was withdrawn yesterday afternoon, by
Messrs. Green and Co., of Lincoln's Inn-fields, the plaintiff's
solicitor.

Yesterday Mr. Thomas Carr, a flashily .dressed 'rating man,
who described himself as an articled clerk, was charged before
Mr. Henry, with assaulting his wife, to whom he had been
married scarcely three mouths.

The complainant, a modest and respectable-looking woman,
deposed that since her marriage, which took place three
months ago on that very day; her husband had continued to
treat her with the greatest unkindness and harshness, and be-
yond this, he inflicted even personal chastisement. On Sa-
turday night, after she had waited up for him until a late
hoar, he came home drunk, and after assaulting her, he
obliged her to leave the house, and walk about the street for
several hours. On Sunday night he again assaulted her while
in a state of intoxication ; he also assaulted her even in the
presence of the police constable whom she had called on to
protect her, and she was ultimately compelled to give him
into custody.
In reply to the questions of Mr. HENRY, Mrs. Carr acknow-
ledged that she was aware her husband was much given to
drink before she married him, but added that ber property was
vested in the hands of trustees for her own exc'usive interest
previous to her marriage, She expressed her willingness to be
separated from the prisoner for life, and to give him up all the
things belonging to him then in }teahouse. •
The prisoner said he was willing to part from his ;rife on
the terms she proposed, and an offieer was sent to see that his
clothes were delivered up to him, and to prevent any breach of
the peace between them.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—Carlisle, March 5.
Mr. Justice Wightman arrived in this city yesterday, and
after opening the commission with tho usual formalities, heard
prayers at the Cathedral. This morning, at ten o'clock, he
proceededto the Court, and charged the Grand Jury.
The calendar consists of only eleven cases, all of them, with
the exception of a charge of forgery, of a very minor character.
The only case possessing any interest was that of an old man,
seventy-three years of age; of venerable appearance, whose
head "was silvered o'er with grey," who was charged with
stealing 1411)3. weight of pea-straw. He had had the misfortune
while in gaol to break one 54,0 legs, and was brought into
Court on a man's blew, and placed -ill alse doak-in a chair.
When called upon to plead, he answered in a very firm tom-,
" I aim not guilty." He was possessed of a field, a stable, and
cow-house. He had not any counsel, nor did he apparently
take any concern in the proceeding., but seemed to trust to the
consciousness of innocence, and calmly waited the result. The
evidence against him was' extremely slight, and the Jury im
mediately pronounced an acquittal.
The Judge directed the keeper of the gaol to discharge him
as soon as he found it convenient to go; and he was borne away
in the same m^nner as he was brought. The verdict appeared
to give general satisfaction.
The cause-list contains fourteen causes, three of which were
disposed of at intervals during the day as undefended, and more
of the same character seem to remain. The Assize is, there-
fore, likely to be brirf, and comparatively unimportant.

WESTERN ClRCUlT.—Salisbury, March 5.
All the nisi prius business having been finished yesterday,
Mr. Justice Erskine sat in the Courts of nisi prius to try pri-
soners. Another Court was also opened, over which Mr.
Rogers presided ; so that three Courts have been engaged all
day in trying prisoners. A great number still remain to be
tried.

CROWN COURT.
W. Clark and Richard Townsend were indicted for -hav-
ing burglariously broken open the dwelling-house of a Mr.
George Cumin, who resides in the Chapolry of Seend, near
Devizes. This case presents, perhaps, one of the most open
and impudent burglaries that we have had to record for many
years.
Mr. Hodges conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Ball defended
Townsend ; Clark was undefended.

Georg'? Gumm, the prosecutor, was first called. He stated
that he lived in the Chapelry of Seem!, and that he and his
sister were the only inmates of his house. On the 4th of Janu-
ary he was disturbed by hearing a noise at the back of the house,
as if some one was breaking through the well. His sister also
heard it, and got up. She went down stairs, followed by wit-
ness. When they got to the passage they heard the parties leave
the back part of the house, and come round to tho front
door. They knocked and demanded admittance, which being
refused, they immediately inserted an iron bar under the
door, which by this means they tore from its fastenings. An
entrance h :ving thus been gained, a little dog ran in, followed
by the prisoners and another man. After using some violence,
Clark went up stairs, followed by witness and his sister, who
were followed by Townsend. It was moonlight, and witness
was able to seethe prisoners distinctly in his bedroom. Clark,
with a chisel, broke open four boxes, and took all the money he
could find; among which there were some guineas, which
witness's sister had hoarded. Having secured all they thought
proper to take away, they left the house. On examining the
wall the next morning, at the back of the house, a large hole
was found not quite through the wall, by which the prisoners
had first intended to have effected their entrance. Witness
gave information to the police, with a description of the men,
acid the prisoners were apprehended, with another man, who is
supposed to have remained down stairs, and whom the witness
and his sister were unable to identify, and who was therefore
discharged by the Magistrates.
This evidence was confirmed by the witness's sister, who,
together with her brother, presented a true picture of the
simple-minded yeomanry of olden times.
Win. Hall, Inspector of Police, proved that he had seen the
prisoners on the night in quest n, about eleven o'clock, at
Alelksham, accompanied by a little dog, and that they proceeded
towards prosecutor's house. Ile had apprehended both prison-
ers. He found a tittle dog_ with Tovis.,,..seotl;:fehhouspreosebecutotorer

seeing Clark immediately gave signi that he knew him, by
jumping about him, and exhibiting other marks of canine
affection. Witness had intended to have produced the dog in
Court, but although it had. followed him very well for some
time previously, just before he arrived at Salisbury the (log
took to
master.heetsand ran off, as if aware that lie was to appear
against
A shopkeeper of Trowbridge was called, who proved that
Clark, on the day after the burglary, had bought a hat at his
shop, and paid for it with a guinea.
Mr. Bane. addressed the jury in behalf of Townsend, and
call' d his son to• prove that at the time of the burglary his
fattier was at his own house.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE summed up the case in his usual
clear and perspicuous manner.
The Jury, after a very short consultation, found both the
prisoners Guilty.
'the Court sentenced them to be transported for life.

Mr. BALLANTINE said, that such a 'complaint had been
made, and he found it was a matter in which he could not

been concerned in stealing from the front boot of the Black-

a leathern box containing 1,5001. in

signed " W. Taylor," were said so have been stopped at the

Superintendent Beswick said he could prove that Mooby,whom
he believed to be the 'brother of King, had been also on the
coach. He knew Mooby to have been a porter at Manchester,
and to have lived there for many years. King was a hawker,
and resided at Leeds.
King—Not DA all ?—I reside at Nottingham, and we are
not brothers.
Superintendent Beswick stated that he and his men had
traced the prisoners through various parts of the country since
the robbery had been committed. At length they traced King
to the house of a man of the name of Cousins, who resided in
Baden-place, Crosby-i oad, Borough, where it appeared he
arid Mooby, had lodged for a few (lays, and were or ap-
peared to be in possession of considerable sums of money. Wit-
ness arranged with Cousins, whose house they had quitted
with the intention as they stated to return to go in search of
the two in isoners. and Cousins remained in the neighbourhood
of the Mansion House, while witness went to the station in
Euston-square, to make some necessary inquiries. Cousins,
while at the Mansion House suddenly saw the prisoners pass
by together, and having called a policeman gave them into
custody.
The Loan Ma von asked whether any of the notes bad
been traced
Superintendent Beswick replied that one of them
could, he had every reason to believe, be traced to one of
the prisoners. There was another charge against one of the
prisoners (Nlooby). That person kad at a previous time
been accused of having broken into a silversmith's shop at
Manchester, and stolen 1,000/. worth of plate. The case was
upon that occasion discharged, but he believed there was addi-
tional evidence ready to be adduced.
George Cousins, of Baden-place, Crosby-road, plumber,
stated, that the prisoners, one, of whom he knew, called at his
house and took a room. He thought they were brothers. They
called each other William and James. One of them brought
, with him a leathern trunk. There wa . nothing in the first in-
stance in their behaviour calculated to excite suspicion: When
they were in the house a few days, they said they had been

that a robbery had been committed iis house, and immedi-
ately proposed to the prisoners to go to the stasion-hcuse, and
inform the police of the particulairs, and de-Tribe the person of

interfere. The Chinamen were understood to say tbat they
had engaged at 6 dollars per month, the value of which was
4s. 6d., and on arriving here they had been offered Spanish
dollars, which were worth but 4s. 2d.
Captain Scott said that as the case had been before the
public, he wished to explain the real differences. The owner
of the ship was a Parsee merchant, residing at Bombay, and
their agents here were Sir Charles Forbes and Co. The ship
had sailed from Bombay to China, where the 25 Chinamen
were shipped , they were then paid two months in aivance, in
Spanish dollars ; subsequently they were paid another two
months, and on their arrival at Graves( nd some time ago
money to the amount of 75/. was sent down from London to
pay them with, when by some extraordinary means they con-
trived to steal thq whole of the above amount intended for their
pay (and which could not be traced) and then demanded
pay in English crowns, worth 55., instead of Spanish dollars,
with which they had been previously joaid, worth 4s. 2d. This
demand was of course resisted. There was money due to
them, and if they insisted they might have it, but it had been
thought prudent to withhold the money while in ;his country,
for if they had it in their possession at the present time, they
would not have ens. farthing of it left irk fifteen days hence,
when the ship would sail. The owners and agents he (Capt.
Scott) was sure would not allow any advantage to be taken
of these men, and for his own part be would do all he could
to pacify them; they were provided for by the agents, but
they could not be got to do any work, and were continually
annoying him.

WOR SHIP-STRE.E 7'.
A young man of respectable exterior, named John Evans,
who stated himself to be a clerk out of a situation, was charged
with having wilfully broken a window in the house of his land-
lord, Mr. Livingstone, No. 20, Woodland-street, Dalston ; he
was further charged with having threatened the life of his wife,
and resisted Mr. Pi itchard, a police inspector, in the execution
of his duty.
Mrs. Livingstone stated that the prisoner and his wife had
occupied apartments in her husband's house for upwards of
three months, but he had only paid a fortnight's rent during
that period. His wife was in a deep decline, and it was not
expected that she would survive many days. At a late hour on
the preceding night the prisoner, who was very irregular in his
habits, returned home in a state of intoxication, and repaired to
the chamber in which his wife was lying, where a vi dent dis-
turbance soon afterwards commenced, and the prisoner's mo-
ther-in-law came out and begged of with .tss to interfere, stating
that the prisoner had taken up a knife and threatened to murder
his wife. On her entering the room the prisoner ran down
stairs and tor, 46., 1. .15 6o norms harkin' a few minutes
rpfused -antTeSSten, tie inrew-e-q.-..,:..)
and mud at the b d-room window, and broke two panes of glass.
Mr. Broker, a gentlem n residing next door, came out on
hearing the uproar and gave the prisoner into custody.
Upon being asked if he wished to make any answer to the
charge, the prisoner said that his feelings had been worke 1 up
to a pitch of frenzy in consequence 01 the incessant reproaches
he was in the habit of receiving from his wife's mother because
he was without money. He was unable to procure any employ..
ment, and he had no means of getting money unless he went
out and robbed on the highway.
Mr BUOUGHTON said that the deplorable condition of his
unfortunate wife on her death-bed, and surrounded with want
and wretchedness, was, he should have thought, sufficient to
have melted the heart of a savage. No legal proof, however,
having been given that he had threatened her life, ho was
unable to deal with that charge, but he should convict the pri-
soner of having resisted the Inspector, and he ordered him to
pay a fine of 20s. or to be imprisoned for a month in the House
of Correction.
The prisoner was locked up in default of payment.

After which will be repeated, with additions, Milton's Masque of

Vestris; the Lady, Mrs. Walter Lacy; Elder Brother, Mr. J. Vin-

LONDON!
TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 8, 1842.

Mr. FERRAND Again drew the attention of the House
of Commons last night, to some of the evils to which the
working classes of England are exposed. Ire again
talked of the truck system, of the overwork in factories,
and much of cloth made firm with paste, and much of the
" devil's dust." That happened then which we foresaw
would happen, A manufacturer, and one who reprobates
the oppression of which individual manufacturers are
guilty, and is guilty of none himself, ➢ir. FIELDEN, while
he admitted the sufferings of the workmen in some
occupations, referring them to the general poverty, drew
from his pocket an account of a case of oppression in the
agricultural districts, and proved that cruelty and ty-
ranny prevail there, as well as in the manufacturing
districts. In fact, industry is universally tyrannised
over by property ; the master—for the hand of man
makes all wealth—has become the slave of his own
creature, and the cases quoted by Mr. FERRAND are only
examples of the general usurpation.
For upwards of twenty years there has been a contest,
which is no secret, and not confined to a narrow spot,
between capital and labour. Books, pamphlets, news-
papers have been written on both sides of the question;
the controversy is but the representative of many practices;
FERRAND has undertaken the task, having no
conception, apparently, of the origin of the contest, or
of the principle on which it hinges, of making known
to property a few cases of the hardship inflicted by it on

industry.
But why does Mr. FERRAND mix up these cases
with a defence of the Corn-laws—one of the most
outrageous examples of property tyrannizing over
industry by means of legislation ? Why does
he found on these cases a personal attack on
a few men of property, who, fee!ing in their own case
the injustice of this law, ask for its repeal ? Mr. FER- ,
RAND by his course of proceedings demoustates his own
ignorance of the principles of this question, )Ind his ter-
rible unfitness for tho office he has undertaken of advo
eating the interests of the working classes.
If he rightly understoo 1 the questiOn, he would

not confine himself to attacking some mill-owners
of Dewsbury, or some remob part of Lan-
cashire, or harp continually on an economical
mode of making inferior cloth (the shoddy trade),
or dwell on cloth being filled up with paste ; if he
touched it -at all in Parliament he would go into the
whole subject. He would examine the foundations of
the capitalists' and landowners' claims. He would prove
that the disease is general. He would show that in
mines as in mills, amongst grinlers as well as amongst
shoddy workers,—that metropolitan scavengers as well as
factory girls—that the lumper-fed Irish as well as the
half-starved hand-loom weavers—that, in short, the
labourers in every branch of business and every dis-
trict of the country, -are sorely vexed by too much
and very often disgusting and painful toil, and are too
poorly paid. But So to treat the su-eject is far be-
yond .the power of this loud-bawling young man, who is
obviously unacquainted with the principles on which the
whole depends.
In treating it, a reflecting and kind man, who
knows how essential to the well-being of society are
many of those occupations which Mr. FERRAND repro-
sentEd as disgusting or irksome, and who is
well aware that to toil. is the lot of man,

from which he cannot wholly • escape,—would
be careful to say as little as possible against the
occupation, however much he might insist on unpleasant
toils being handsomely and adequately paid. Mr. FEn-
RAND is most injudicious in his advocacy, for he selects
one or tw(k noisome occupations, and one or two cases of
individual oppression, and on them founds charges
against all the manufacturers of England.
With respeckto this shoddy t‘ade, of which he speaks,
it is no secret, and no fraud. On the contrary, we re-
member very well reading the account which was pub-
blished of the plan at the time that it was introduced.
Much praise was then bestowed on the inventor, as hay-
ing economised the resources of the country. As to tin-
pleasantness, it appears to us that those who gather and
sort old rags of all kinds fur paper-making, when they
are converted into a pulp, are just as much exposed to
unpleasant consequences as those who pick them and
throw them into a teasing mill, to reconvert them into
wool. Nobody ever says anything against the former occu-
