CI ET Y
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION.
BRISTOL , Jo xx 14.—Yesterday, et G o'clock, the Council din •
eer, of which the entici 7ated grandeur had been so long the subject
conversation; tool; place at the Victoria RoOms, and upwards
if 50.1 noblemen, gentletoen, and farmers sat down at the ta-
which were covered with dishes principally of cold meats,
end tyreens of turtlr, which was at a temperature something
bout the atmospheric heat of a summer day. The large room
•n which the dinner took place is a very splendid apartment,
.nd capable of containing a much larger company than was as-
sembled yesterday. At the cross table was seated the Presi-
dent of the Society, Mi. Handley, who acted as Chairman,
.upported by bit Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the
Dukea of Beaufort and Richmond, the Marquises of Downshire
and Worcester, the American !Minister, (the Hon. E. Eve-
ett ). Lords Somers, Spencer, Ilehester, Beauclerk, the Dean
f Blistol, Dr. Lamb, the Mayor of Bristol, &c. ; and amongst
the guests at the other to lea were a great number of the no-
.iility anti gentry whose names have already been given in
connection with the meetivg of the Society, and a vast number
persons of rank and intluencst. The whole was well ar-
ranged and conducted, and considering the great number of
cyeromsizind of.
toeheaecommodated, there was perhaps not much to be
The cloth being removed.
The CHAIRMAN, Mr. Handley, President of the Society,
rose and proposed the " Health of her 11.1aje.ty," which was
drunk with great enthusiasm.
The next toast was the " Healths of her Majesty the Queen
Dowager, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, Albert Prince of
Wales, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, and the
'rest of the Royal Famity."-- -
His Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE returned
thanks.
Atter other toasts the CHAIRMAN gave the " Health of the
lon. Edward Everett, Honorary Member of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society."
Mr. EVERETT, on rising, was received with reiterated accla-
mations. He said—l came here with no other expectation
ir purpose than that of being a gratified and instructed specta-
,or. I find myself by the liberarity-of the Council elected to the
distinguished honour of being permitted to associate with you
is a brother member, an honour fur which I can assure you I
feel the deepest gratitude. lam aware that I do not appear
helot e you this day in an official capacity, but I feel that this
honour has been conferred upon me as the representative of
my native country, and I have great pleasure in acknowledg-
MIT on behalf of my Government, this tribute of your good
feeling towards my country.—( Cheers.) If I may be per-
mitted to use the words of his Royal Highness, I would say.
that though I cannot boast of being a practical farmer, I
save in my native land been ever, a diligent observer of the
science of agriculture, and have always been most anxious to
promote its prosperity.—( Cheers.) When I had the honour
be elected, some years since, by the voice of my fellow-
citizens, to the office of Chief Magistrate of the State of Mas-
sachusetts, it fell to my fortune to have to contribute to a re-
port on the agricultural state of that portion of the United
States. That report, I understand, has reached this country,
and the Duke of Richmond has greatly gratified me by saying
that he has read with pleasure some of the documents referred
to. I thank you most cordially for this friendly and cordial
reception. It is with no ordinary emotions that, though in a
foreign country, I find myself able to speak its language, and
that it meets with a response like this from those whom I have
the honour now to address. Bat it is not merely in language
that the two :countries agree ; many of our fathers emigrated
from these parts, and brought with them the then modes of
agriculture, which have gone on gradually progressing, and
even our domestic animals bear traces of a common origin,
and to the eye of the farmer the dumb animals, though they
satinet speak, proclaim that they also came from Old England.
—( Great cheering.) What an insensible clod of the valley
should I be if I was not touched by that which is proclaimed to
Me by the dumb animals themselves !—(Cheers.) lam afraid
I hare already taken up too much of your time, and I will now
only detain you while I again express my acknowledgments for
the great honour done use by this distinguished Association,
and I beg to offer my best wishes for its continued prosperity,
and that of the agriculture of Great Britain generally.
The award of the prizes to the successful competitors in the
attle show was then read by his Grace the Duke of Richmond,
who stood up upon his chair, and exerted himself with great
energy to make his voice heard distinctly all over the room, a
task of no little difficulty from its great extent.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE,
.111DLA1VD CIRCL7III--Vorthampton, Jttj 1:1.
1171liam Pettifer, indicted towards the close of yesterday's 1
proceedings for a cruel, vile, and abominable assault upon the !
person of his wife, stood charged with unlawfully, maliciously,
and feloniously as.saclting her, with intent to maim her, to
disfigure her, or to do her some grievous bodily harm.
From the evidence (which is utterly unfit, for publication in
detail) it appeared that the prisoner had been wont to griev-
ously maltreat the poor woman, and on the night of Saturday,
the 21st of May last, having on that day come out from a gaol
to which he had for some time been consigned for his brutality
towards her, came to his home intoxicated, but not excessively
so ; and after foully abusing her, and otherwise grossly mal-
treating her, for greater part of the night, sot up, and
looked out of the window, and then discovering nobody to alarm
him, procured a large pocket-knife, with which, without un- i
clasping it, he inflicted upon her person, as she lay in bed, very
extensive injury, from which she bled unfit the Monday night,
suffered acutely for a fortnight, and was not yet wholly relieved.
The Jury found the prisoner guilty of a gross assault, in the
silifit of which finding, the Learned -Judge intimated, as at.
course, his fullest concurrence. His Lordship this day passed
upon him the sentence of the Court, whicli was, that for this
his atrocious offence he be imprisoned in the common gaol of
this county, and there kept to hard labour, for three years, and
he was further ordered, at the expiration of that period, to enter
into his own recognizance in the sum of 1001. to keep the peace
generally, and especially tow ards his wife, for the further term
of ten years.
David Stapleton, a man 69 years of age, was convicted of a
stets assault, with intent, &c., upon a young girl only 9 years
of age.
His Loansiiir sentenced him to be imprisoned and kept to
hard labour for two years ; and having observed, that after this
sentence it was hardly probable, from his great age, that he
would ever enjoy liberty again, and that it was therefore unne-
cessary to try him upon another indictment for a like offence,
earnestly exhorted him to repentance of the foul crimes of which
he had been guilty, and to devotion and prayer for forgiveness
during the short remaining time that he could hope to live.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT—Durham, July 13. I
CROWN SlDE.—(Before Lord DF.SMAN.)
CHARGE OF MURDER. —Janzes Robertson was indicted for
the wilful murder of James Liddle, at Monkwearmouth, by
striking him on the head with a forge hammer.
It appeared that both the prisoner and the deceased were in
the employ of an anchorsmith at Monkwearmouth, named
Lumsden. The deceased was foreman. On the day of the
offence the men were employed upon an anchor, which, being
" at heat," it was necessary that the hammering should be car-
ried on briskly. The station of the prisoner was on the out-
side the anchor, near the shank. A man named Dadds was
nearer the fluke. The deceased was standing near the point of
the fluke, about three yards from the prisoner, who left his work
and went to a corner of the shop, about eight yards off, where
he was drinking something out of a bottle. The deceased called
to him not to be getting drunk, but to go on with the work. The
prisoner went back to his station grumbling, and struck five or
six blows, and the n walked past Dodds to the deceased, saying,
" When I can't do my work I'll go home." The deceased
replied, " Then go," and, repeated the words, " Then go."
The prisoner immediately raised the heavy hammer with both
hands, and struck the deceased a violent blow on the left side i
of the head near the crown. The deceased fell hack, and the
prisoner was about to repeat the blow, when Dodds and the
vounger Lumsden seized him, notwithstanding which the
hammer struck the chest of the deceased. Lumsden said, " You
rascal, do you see what, yon have done ;" to which the prisoner
replied, " I may as well be hung for him as for another." The
prisoner struck with all his force, as when striking the anchor,
saying " Hall '" as he delivered the blow. The prisoner was
so.newhat intoxicated. After the bows he walked home, and
was there apprehended, when he eagerly asked, " Is he dead ?"
The officer said, "No, not yet." He said, "I'll be hanged;
I may as well be hanged now as after."
The deceased lingered till five o'clock next morning, and then
died. On examination it was found that the skull was fright-
fully fractured, the membrane torn away, and the brain deeply
wounded.
In summing up the ease His LORDSHIP told the Jury that
the question for their consideration was whether the offence
was committed with malice aforethought. which was essential
to the crime of murder, but that no provocation by words only
would reduce that crime to manslaughter; but if, though he
feared there was nothing in the evidence to warrant it, they
could consistently bring their minds to the belief that there
was no malice aforethought, it would be open to them to find
a verdict of manslaughter.
The Jury, after a short retirement, returned a verdict of
Manslaughter.
His Loansittr addres,ed the prisoner in a very solemn man-
ner, and said that the Jury had taken a very merciful view of
his case. Had they found him guilty of murder, the last sen-
tence of the law would most certainly have been executed
upon him ; as it wa', he would, fur the residue of hts life,
have to undergo a punishment less terrible only than death it-
self. He was then sentenced to be transported for life.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION HOUSE.

William Swainsland, the Captain of the Ariel steamer, which
plies from and to London and Greenwich and Woolwich, ap
peered before the Lord Mayor, upon a summons from Mr.
Goss, a medical gentleman, who resides in Paternoster-row,
under the circumstances detailed in the following evidence :
Mr. Goss stated that he went on board the Ariel steamer at
London-bridge, for the purpose of landing at Blackwell. There
was, when he went on board, a large canvass placed with the
word " Blackwell" on it, in white letters, over the side of the
vessel, and he of course inferred that she would stop at that
place. That placard was not taken down until the vessel was
on her way down the river. When the ticket-taker went
round, witness asked him for tickets for three to Blackwell,
and was informed by him that the vessel was not going there,
Witness then remonstrated with the Captain on the very great
impropriety of the deception, and mentioned that the placard
which was taken down had contained a direction which misled
the passengers. 'lle Captain denied that any placard had
been exhibited on the vessel, but a man who was
not connected with her opened the canvass and showed the
word " Blackwell" upon it. 'roe Captain then said that he
must act according to orders, and he could not stop at Black-
wall. By the manoeuvre a profit of two pence a head was
gained, so that the, extortion when 40 or 50 persons wished to
stop at 131ackwall was very profitable, and they had to get to
Blackwall as well as they could after paying for the whole
passage to Woolwich. Witness was a medical man, and the
inconvenience and annoyance arising from the deception were
likely to be very considerable to men of the profession. He
appeared to make thecomplaint upon public grounds.
Mr. Henry Goss, brother to the comp!amant, said that the
statement Just male was correct in every respect.
