REAbING, MARCH 9.
At the Assizes for this county, which ended on
Wednesday last, Thomas Cox, alias Jacob Fisher,
for beastiality ; and Thos. Wheatley, for horse-steal-
ing, received sentence of death. Wheatley was re- ,
prieved before the Judge left the town. —James Ro-
berts, for stealing eighteen geese; and Richard Webb,
for stealing a hempen sack and about four bushels of
wheat, to be transported for seven years.—Charles
Collings, for stealing part of a flitch of bacon, mut-
ton, bread, &c. from Wargrave Workhonse, to be im-
prisoned two years; and William A'Bear, for the
same offence, to be imprisoned one year.—Elizabeth
Boen, for stealing a gold watch, the property of Miss
Gaskoin, of Windsor; and John Smith, for stealing
15 ducks, to be imprisoned six months.—James Wells,
for stealing a bushel of wheat, the property of his
master, to be imprisoned three months and privately
whipped.—Three were acquitted, and four discharged
by proclamation.—The Jury returned a verdict of
insanity against John Williams, for horse-stealing.
QUELCH S. SEARING.
This was a cause, tried at the above Assizes, and
is particularly interesting to the Volunteer Cavalry,
end, likewise, to the sporting world in general. An
ornamented silver cup, of the value of 50gs. was
given, by the officers of the First Berks regiment of
cavalry, to be run for by horses which had never
started for any regular plate, with the intention of ex-
citing the members to emulation, in regard to the I id.
ing of good and useful half-bred horses in the ranks.
The plaintiff's half-bred mare, Careless, was proved,
in the course of the trial, to be fully qualified. On
the other hand, the defendant's horse, King Alfred,
was ascertained, by indisputable evidence, to have
been provided for the express purpose of carrying
away the cup, and to have previously run at North- I
h imptoa and other races. Colonels Dundas and Stead,l
Captain Lord Folkestone, and many other highly re-
spectable witnesses, fully established the plaintiff's
case. The defendant endeavoured to avail himself of
the possibility of the cup not being intrinsically worth
£5O, which amount (as the object of contest) is ne-
cessary to the constituting of legal race. This at-
tempt was regarded by the Court as frivolous, and a
verdict was, consequently, given in favour of the plain-
tiff, for the sum of £33 17s. 2d. which was proved
by Colonel Sv td to be the price paid for the cup.

WINCHESTER, MARCH 6.
• GRIM. CON.-•PALYER v. GRIFFITHS, GENT.

This was a Special Jury cause, and was brought
against the defendant, to recover damages foi crimi-
nal conversation with the plaintiff's wife.
Mr. JEKYLL, for the plaintiff, stated the case, as it
was afterwards detailed in evidence. The plaintiff
is an auctioneer and coal-merchant, residing in the
neighbourhood of Newport. The defendant is an at-
torney, inhabiting that town. He is a married man,
snd the father of several children. The parties had
been on terms of intimacy for many years ; but the
plaintiff, from a variety of concurring circumstances,
suspecting his wife's infidelity with the defendant,
placed app old washerwoman under a bed in his (plain.
tiff's) lotise, where he also secreted himself in such a
position that they could discover all those who entered
the room. After remaining in this situation for an
hour and a half, they observed the happy pair pass
through the room into an adjoining apartment—the
two spies shortly after rushed nut of their lurking-
place, and sni prized the amorous couple on the floor,
iit such a situ ition as to leave no doubt of their cri-
minal connection.
Mr. Seijeant Nu., for the defendant, made several
pointed observations against the plaintiff, for having
placed himself in such a situation as to be the witness
of his own cUshonour—and, with great force and in.
genuity, contended, that, from the sudden interrup.
lion of the plaintiff and his old washerwoman, there
had not been time for the defendant to carry his cri-
minal intention into effect.
The Learned Judge (Ctrasute) however was of
a.different opinion ; and the Jury agreeing with his
Lordship, found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages,
£lOO.
