COURT OF QUEENS BENCH. May 12.

Lord DENMAN disposed of a few short causes this
morning of no general interest, after which the Court
discharged the jury, and adjourned at half-past twelve
o'clock.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 12.
CLOVE V. DENT AND ANOTHER.
This was an action framed in several counts, the
principal of which were, that the defendants had im-
properly disposed of certain goods, the property of the
plaintiff ; that they had continued illegally in possession
of the plaintiff's house ; and that they had assaulted
the plaintiff's wife and imprisoned her.
It appeared that the plaintiff' rented a house from the
defendant Dent, in Seymour-place, Bryanstone-square,
in which he carried on the business of a publican. An
arrear of rent, to the amount of 18/., having become due
to the defendant on the 25th of September last, he levied
a distress on the goods of the plaintiff, and employed a
person of the name of Morgan, who was the second
defendant in the case, to distrain the goods.
Morgan continued for a week in possession, without
being authorised to do £O, it was contended, and con-
trary to the Statute. An arrangement (the precise cha-
racter and attendant circumstances of which it was very
difficult to determine from the evidence given on both
sides) was entered into between the wife of the
plaintiff and a person of the name of Woodgate,
who was to become the new tenant of Mr. Dent,
by which it was agreed that she should give up
possession of the house and the fixtures, on condition
that this should be accepted in payment of the rent due,
and that she should receive a sum of money in addition,
for any goods that might be on the premises. On the
Monday following the day of this agreement, the plain-
tiff's wife came to claim of the defendant the money
which she supposed was due to her. There arose on
that occasion some misunderstanding between the par-
ties ; the woman became very violent in her conduct ;
and she was then given into the custody of two police-
men, who deposed to her having been drunk at the time.
The charge against her, on her removal to the police •
office, was abandoned on condition that she should not

COURT OF B PTCY. May 12.
RE JOHN ALEXANDER HERON.
. _

This day was appointed Kr the cbo'ce of assignees under the
fiat against that bankrupt, who carried on business as a horse-
dealer and livery-stable-keeper. in Bow. The amount of lia-
bilities appearing in his schedule was about 2,5001., and the
available assets were stated under 3001.

Several creditors having tendered proofs, which were ad-
mitted, without eliciting any points of general interest, the
choice of assignees was proceeded with, when Messrs. Wood
and Jamieson, the two principal creditors, were appointed.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

OLD COURT.

THE MURDER AT-I:IIGHBURY.

Thomas Cooper was placed at the bar yesterday at the
opening of the Court, to plead to an indictment charging him
w►th the wilful murder of Timothy Daley, on the 'sth o(May,
at Highbury.
The prisoner appeared in a very weak and debilitated state,
and was accommodated with a chair, while the indictment was
being read. When placed in the dock he looked carelessly
round the Court for a few minutes. He appeared to pay no
attention whatever to the indictment as it was being read, but,
as he did at the police-office, placed his arms across the bar,
resting his head upon them.
The Clerk of Arraigns having read over the indictment,
said, " How say you, Thomas Cooper, are you guilty or not
guilty ?"
The prisoner did not seem to comprehend the question, and
turned to the gaoler, who repeated it to him.
The prisoner then replied, in a low tone of voice, so low as
scarcely to be audible, " Not guilty."
'The prisoner was then Charged, upon,the Coroner's inquisi-
tion, with the same offence.

Clerk of Arraigns—How say you, Thomas Cooper, are you
guilty, or not guilty ? Prisoner (slightly lifting his head, and
in the same low tone as before)—Not Guilty, Sir.
The prisoner was then placed- at the side of the dock, while
other prisoners were put forward to plead to their several in-
dictments. During this time the prisoner leaned back in his
chair, and closed his eyes.
At ten o'clock precisely, Mr. Baron Alderson took his seat
on the bench, and the prisoner was again put forward.
Mr. Ilortity, the prisoner's Counsel, immediately rose and
addressed his Lordship as follows :—May it please your Lord-
ship, I have an application to make to your Lordship; relative
to the prisoner at the bar. The offence of which he is charged,
was committed on Thursday last, and the prisoner was only com-
mitted for trial on the evening of Monday. I then pointed out to
the Magistrate who committed him, that great difficulty would
arise to the prisoner in consequence of being unable to ob-
tain a copy of the depositions, but Mr. Greenwood seemed
to be of opinion that it was ,his bounden duty, under the
circumstances, to commit the prisoner. On Tuesday morning
I made an application for a copy of t depositions, and I
only received them yesterday. I thing therefore, that I have
stated sufficient facts to give yoiir Lordship reason to think
that it would be only consonant with justice that the trial
should net even take place this session. The mother of the
prisoner was only able to obtairk, legal advice on Monday last.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—I thought you attended the police-
office on Monday.
Mr. HORRY—I mean besides myself, my Lord. There is
every reason to believe there has net been time enough to
inquire into certain circumstances relative.te this transaction
which are highly important to the prisoner's defence. In
fact, it is impossible that his defence can be gone into with
justice, nor will a few days suffice to do it.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—The transaction took place close to
London. I see no grounds why the trial should not take
place this Session.

Mr. HORRY—It is utterly impossible to prepare the pri-
soner's defence in a few days. A trial has, within the last few
days been postponed, the circumstances of which took place an-
terior to this transaction.

Mr. Baron ALDERSON—I will tell you what I will do. The
Court will be full to-morrow, and you can make an application
in full Court then. You have said quite enough to induce me
not to take the case to-day.
The prisoner, who aKeared to have been wholly uncon-
scious of what was going on during the application, was then
removed from the dock.

SHOOTING WITH INTENT TO MIJADER.,—Robert Wilson,
aged 24, a sailor, was indicted for feloniously shooting at Pa-
trick Cavannah with a pistol, with intent to murder him.
Mr. C. Pirrt.mrs defended the prisoner.
Elizabeth Kelly deposed that she lived as servant with Mrs.
Wilson, the mother of the prisoner, who resided at Eltham, in
Kent. Mrs. 'Wilson was married to Mr. Cavanah, die prose-
cutor, but she went by the name of Wilson. The prisoner
had some words with Mr. Cavannah. Orr the Ist of April, the
prisoner came to the door about ten o'clock at night. Mr.
Cavanah went to the door, and the prisoner asked him to let
him in. The prosecutor said he should not come in. The
prisoner then went away, and returned in about five minutes,
when he threw some stones at the door. He again asked to be
let in, and the prosecutor fet6ed a poker. The prosecutor
said, " You shall not come in to-night, Robert ; you may burst
the door open." Immediately after this, witness heard the re-
port of a pistol, and on proceeding to the door, she observed her
master's cheek bleeding. Ile was stooping at the time, and
his head was near to the keyhole of the door.
Cross•examined—lt was immediately on hearing her master
say, " You may burst open the door," that she heard the report
of a pistol. The prisoner could not aee the prosecutor at the
time. •

Mr. Basset, a surgeon, of Woolwich, stated that he was
called in to attend the prosecutor on the night in question. He
extracted a pistol ball from his cheek. The ball had passed
along the cheek, and caused a wound of about an inch and a
half in length.
Cross-examined.--The prosecutor was drunk at the time,
but he was in some degree sobered by the accident.
Thomas Clarke deposed to his having sold the prisoner a pair
of pistols on the night in question.
William Henley stated that he was in a public-house with
the prisoner on the night in q testion, at about a quarter to ten
o'clock. The prisoner was drunk at the time. He had
two ,pistols with him,. and he said he eras going. to
shoiTt sp:rrows. He said that there was a man at
home who had taken ,possession of his (prisoner's) Imuse
while he was in Syria, and
.he said he would have his
revenge, and blow his brains out. He then left the room, but
returned in about a quarter of an hour. He wanted the publi-
can to go home with him, but he refu;ed. He then asked
witness, and he consented. He went with him to the door,
and there he left him.

Police officer R 57 stated, that he took the prisoner into
custody. He found two pistols upon him. They were un-
loaded. The prisoner said, " I have done it, but it would not
have happened, only I was drunk." Witness saw the door of
Mrs. Wilson's house. There was a hole in it about four feet
from the ground.

Mr. C. PHILLIPS addressed the Jury for the prisoner, and
The LEARNED Junni summed up the evidence, and said,
the question the Jury had to consider was, as to the intent of
the prisoner, viz., whether he intended to hurt the proseeutoi.
The Jury, after a short consultation, found the prisoner Not
Guilty.

Thomas Grew, aged 17, clerk, was indicted for stealing
three post letters, containing one chain, one pin, one seal, and
two pencil cases, the property of the Postmaster-General.
The prisoner pleaded guilty to the charge, and he was sen-
tenced to fifteen years transportation-
RA PE.— Mn. Holland, aged 22, clog-maker, was indicted
for a rape on Rebecca Powell.
Mr. PAYNE defended the prisoner.
The prosecutrix deposed that she resided in the Hackney-
road, and was a married woman. On the sth May she was
going home through Christian-street, Hackney-road, at about
twelve o'clock at night, when she was forcibly seized and
dragged into a house by the prisoner and another man. The
room into which she was carried was a dark room. The pri-
soner threw her down and committed the offence of which he
stood charged. She cried out "Don't ill-use me," and the
prisoner answered " You b-- b—, if you don't be quiet I will
murder you." A policeman then came into the house, and the
prisoner was given into custody. The other man escaped.
The policeman corroborated this evidence, and stated that
the prisoner used great violence when he was taken into custody.
Mr. PA vNE addressed thz Jury for the defence, and called
several witnesses, who stated that they lived in the house, and
were, there on the night in question. They did not hear any
noise except a slight scuffle, which they thought was occasioned
by a man and his wife quarrelling. One witness stated that he
heard the prosecutrix say, ".Hush, hush I don't hurt my
bonnet."

The LEARNED JUDGE having summed up the evidence, the
Jude returned a verdict of Not Guilty.
filen Thomas, described as a spinster, was indicted for
feloniously cutting and wounding John Wilks, with intent to do
him some grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Howarth defended the prisoner.
John Wilks, a little boy ten years old, stated that he lived
with his mother in Parker-street, Drury-lane, and the prisoner
lodged in the !mine house. On the 23d of April the prisoner
called him into her room, and sent him for some gin and some.
beer. She was at this time smoking a pipe, and was intoxi-
cated. When he returned she locked the door, and told him
to take off his handkerchief from his neck, and she called him
to her, and with a razor inflicted two severe wounds upon his
face and throat. The prisoner before this had been very kind
to him, and he had not aggravated her in any manner.
The boy's mother stated that upon hearing an alarm she
went into the prisoner's room, anti found her with her arm
round the boy, and in the act of cutting his throat.
The Jury returned a verdict of_ Guilty.
Baron ALDERSON then ordered the prisoner to be kept to
hard labour for three years.
ho moment the sentence was pronounced, the prisoner be-
came very violent. She exclaimed—" I will kill myself, I will.
I won't be there a week." She was then removed from the
dock, and as she was going down the steps she screamed out—
.' So help me good God, I'll kill myself—where there's a will
there's a way. I won't be there a week."
NEW COURT.
No case of interest came before the Court this morning.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREET.

The whole of the night charges were comprised in five cases
of "drunk and incapable.;" and as the offenders were all too
incapable to make any resistance kto the officers in the execu-
tion of their duty, they were discharged. A little drink is a
dangerous thing; a great deal, it appears, is very harmless.
'MARLBORO UGH-STREET.
Thomas Staples, a boy of about 12 years:of age, was charged
with picking the pocket of a gentleman named Lowndes, re.
siding at No. 7, St. Michael's-alley, Cornhill, of a silk purse,
containing 7s. 6d. in silver, and a hunch of keys.
Sir C. F. Williams, Baronet, one of the Commissioners
of the Court of Bankruptcy, took a seat on the Bench with
the presiding Magistrate, Mr. Hardwick.
Mr. Lowndes was unable to be in attendance, being obliged
to leave town on urgent business at an early hour this morning.
It appeared that about six o'clock on Wednesday evening:Mr.
Lowndes, while looking into a print. seller's shop-window in the
Haymarket, felt a tug at his coat-pocket, and instantly turn-
ing round found the prisoner close behind him, who seemed
greatly confused, and instantly said, " I didn't do it, Sir—it is
those two boys," pointing to lads a short distance off, who
were walking quickly away, and he added, " I'll go and stop
them, Sir," and started off towards them ; and as he was running
Sir C. F. Williams, who was passing by, 'saw him drop
the purse containing the silver; he, however, overtook the
others, ai:d was seen to pass something (supp'ssed to be the
bunch of keys) to one of them, and they then separated, and ran
off in different directions, but Mr. Lowndes pursued the prisoner
and secured him; the others got clear off.

Mr. HA RDWICK inquired if the prisoner was known.
Inspector Plume, of the E division, stated, that the prisoner,
although so young, was a notorious and very expert thief. He
had been in custody several times, charged with picking pockets,
and came out of gaol only three weeks ego, having served out
his sentence on a conviction for felony.
The prisoner was remanded until Thursday next, when Mr.
Lowndes will be in town.

WORSHIP STREET.
A DRUNKARD'S CA RESS.--.- William Henry Blake, an
elderly man of demure deportment, was charged with having
attempted to strangle Joseph Moss, a child three months old.
Ann Lyar, the child's sister-in-law, stated that she
was engaged in nursing- it - at her mother's door on

the preceding evening, when the prisoner cares up
and wrung the child's nose, at the same, time pressing his hand
t,on its mouth, until it became black in the fare, and was on
th, very point of being suffocated. he screamed loudly for
assistance, upon which the prisoner made off; but he was pur-
sued by the child's mcthcr and several other persons, who gave
him into custody. Ihe prisoner was very much intoxicated.
In his defence, the prisoner said that he was excessively fond
of children, having brought up no less than ten of his own, and
that he mere') intended to give the child an affectionate caress.
Two or three witnesses were called, who gave the prisoner
a good character forhumanity and general propriety of conduct.
The pi isoner was severely lectured by the Magistrate, and
fined l Os., or three weeks' imprisonment.
Emma Butlen, a respectahle.looking married woman, was
finally examined upon a charge of having stolen nine sovereigns,
the property of Mr. Wells, of Wellington-place, Stoke New-
ington.
It appeared that the prisoner had-been for a considerable
time past on terms of intimacy with the prosecutor and his .
family, and was a frequent visitor at his house, where she al-
ways met with the most hospitable reception. On several oc-
casions, however, when the prisoner had been his guest, the
prosecutor missed different sums of money from a box which
he kept in a cupboard in the sitting room, and in order to
arrive at the thief, he marked a number of sovereigns, which
he deposited in their usual receptacle. The prisoner took to
with his wife on that evening, and before she went away the
prosecutor took an opportunity of examining the box, vih
he discovered that nine sovereigns had b,en abstracted. Befi
made no mention of the circumstance until the prisoner left the,
house, accompanied by his wife, who offered to see her part of
the vva.y home, when he followed them, and asked his wife if
she knew what had become of the money. She answered to
the negative, and the prisoner, in affected ignorance, inquired
what money he alluded to, upon which the prosecutor directly
charged her with the robbery, and having met a policeman, he
gave her into custody. The prisoner admitted her guilt to the
policeman, and the nine marked sovereigns were found upon
her at the station-house.
The prisoner (who declined saying anything) was committed
for trial.
