The following is given in a Morning Paper, by one or the parties,
as the origin and state of this dispute at the Chester Race Ban :
" The Gentlemen assembled at the Chester Race Ball, on the 4th
of May last, feel themselves called upon, by the extraordinuy mea-
sures since resorted to by Messrs. Frrsoes.aco and Rawmws, to state
what the conduct of those persons on that occasion was.
" Early in the evening of the night of the Ball, Messrs. Fers-
41IIALD and Rawt.uni were observed, by several persons present,
to behave uncivilly; and afterwards Mr. Prraisavost.n, whilst the
dancing was going on, sat on a• front bench at the top of the
room, with his lege thrust forward, so as very much to annoy
those who were dancing; and, at their request, Mr. Bueturr
WILLIAMS, one of the Stewards, begged him to move to the
Mach behind, to which Mr. FlTsagßaLn gave a rude answer, and
at the same time put a card into Mr. WuLuots's pods. *ben
the dancing ceased, they retired into Another room, and Mr.
Rawuns, as the friend of Mr. FISZOIRALD, joined them • se-
veral other Gentlemen, amongst whom was Mr. Ina, entered
also. After a short discussion, the parties re-entered the ball-
room, and Mr. Frrsositasn and Mr. Rawuini kept walking round
the roonsonaking offensive observations on what had occurred,
as they came near any of the Gentlemen whaliad been in the
adjoining room with them; and on Mr. lan getting up from
his seat, with his wife on his arm, Mr. Frrsoaa.u.s, in company
with Mr..RowLuts, came up with evident intention to insult him.
Mr. letst then sat down, and Mr. VITISZRAIM and Mr. RAWLINS
approached the bench where Mr. Isis wait sitting with his wife
and daughter, and Mr. FITZOSIALD used the following language,
which can be testified by a Gentleman present :
Now, look at that fellow ; he is doing the exact same thing,
for the doitig of which be said I was not a Gentleman. If the
brute could hear reason, I would soot convince him that it was be
that was no Gentleman; but the brute will not bear reason."
" The company present thought this direct insult to a respectable
Gentleman, in company with his wife and daughter, coupled with
their previous conduct, so opposite to everything like gentlemanly
• !saviour; that they requested Mr. Wu.uaus, a steward (Lord
Haar not being present), to desire Messrs. Frrsotaato. and ILIA'S-
IMO to leave the room. Whilst this was passing, a general cry of
" turn them out" was raised, and a rush immediately followed,. by.
which they Weft forced get of the room." •

The Journal des nehats contains an account of the
trial, at the Court of Assizes, at Calvados, of a man
named Behier, for the murder of his wife, in 1816, and
of a girl named Hebei t, in the course of the last ye tr.
It appeared that in the year 1816, the wife of Behier
Was-found in a pond, but the circumstances not being
considered sufficiently strong astainst the husband, no
prosecution was instituted. A short time afterwards he
was arrested for theft, and condemned to six years im-
prisonment, At the end of that period, he returned to
the place shete he had formerly lived, and formed an
intimacy with the gill Hebert. In November last, a
strange smell was remarked to proceed from the house
where they lived, and on enteting, Hebert was found
with her head separated from her body. The Jury
found Bebier guilty of both murders, and he was con-
demned to be executed. He made no defence, and
when he Beard sentence pronounced, merely said,
Be,ter that it should be to-day than to-morrow."
