her father for the bed; she did not know wbo paid i
for the 1.1,1; Charlotte told her to go for the bed, but
she did iint tell her who was to pay for it; she never
saw Mr. It vie about t!fe bed ; she never saw anybody
get its at the window ; upon her.uath she never saw Mr.
ltyle in bed flare; he never came in the day time until
altz!r her sister hild lain on; she did nut know that her
mother ever saw him at the house; she had one sister
who had never had a misfortune. At the time of Mr.
Kyle's marriage she went to Mr Vaughan, the attorney,

Boothroyd was; her sister employed him; she supposed

She earned 12s. a week, and her sister about the same;
she knew Mr. Fallows, the overseer; she saw him a few
weeks since at their house, and they talked about this
action. Her sister was there more than once when he
was there ; she had never said that if it had not bt-en
fir 51`r. Boothroyd. the attorney, this action would neve,
have been brought. Her child and her sister's children

the defendant married his daughter; he had no pro-
perty at present; he received tents on account cf the
defendant; there were legacies to be paid before he
came to any property ; the rents he received under his
grandfather's will were about 401. per annum lewehold,
and about 1001. pet annum from freehold. There was a
legacy of 1,00)1. and another of 5001. to be paid out cf
the rents and profits before he came to the estates ; what

dreds, he had spent every farthing of. He was not in

Mr. Sergeant Jonas addressed the Jury on behalf of
the defendant, contending that upon such evidence the
Jury, he hoped, would not find a verdict for the plain-
tiff, for at the most it was but an illicit amour of an
imprudent young man.
Mt.JusticeJaaves summed up at very great length.
It certainly was d most extrAtudinary case, and the
question f .r their consideration was, whether or not a
promise of marriage was ni.ide?
The Jury consult. d together tor a few minutes, and
found a verdict tor the plaintiff—Damages IW.

-i- Savage, a shoemaker, applird to Nit.. Alderman Atom', for
an order to St. Bartholomew's l losidtal for llichard Castles, aged
17, whose head had been lacerated the previous evening by the
the lion at Morgan's wild beast show. in Bartholomew Fair, and
also far a summons against the keeper, for not securing the animal
in a proper cage. Ile stated that the lid was pressed forward by
the et owd to the front of the cage, the bars of which were remarka-
bly wide. and the lion ammeiliAttly smash one of his paws out,
piercing through the hat into the flesh, and actually lifted him from
the ground. The shrieks of the boy brought ap the keeper, just as
the animal was putting out his other paw to secure his victim, but
by the application of a stick it was compelled to quit its bold, and
the lad was borne away to the Hosp:tal in a state of insensibility.—
Alter a while be recovered, and the wounds having been dressed,
he was sent home, but lie was ih such a deplorable stre, that Mr.
Savage felt the Hospital was the best place fur him. The lion was
the same that stripped the flesh off a miss arm at Camberwell
Fair, a fortnight since, and that killed his keeper about two years
ago—The Alderman granted both the letter for the HOspital and
the summons. _ _

An apprentice to a bras'-worker on Holborn-hill was charged
with indecent conduct towards a female in the Fur.

Miss Perry said she was going through the Fair with a young
man about nine o'clock, when the prisoorr raised her clothes behind,
clasped his bands round one of her legs, and tried to list her trom
the ground. She was exceedingly alirmed, as he wrenched her leg
round, and otherwise ill-treated her, the effects of which she still felt.

Samuel Porter said he accompanied the hit witness, and when
be saw what the lad was doing, be tried two or three times to push
him away, but be was diverted by having to prevent the young
woman from falling.
The prisoner, in his defence, blubbered, and said he was set on
by soinit ether lads. -
The Alderman said. be would take care he should not repeat his
pranks this Fair, for he would remand him till Wednesday. and if
be did not then produce a very good character, he would send the
ease to the Sessions.
Four charges of picking pockets *ere beard, and the accused, in
one case, an old thief, was committPd

Mr. Perihelion, of Greek sttvet, Subo, was brought up for re-
examination, on the charge of paling three twenty pound notes of,
the Greenock Bask to Messrs. Cross and Sewell, of Compeers.
street, Soho, which were souse of those stolen front the above bank.
Butler attended on the part of the prosecutors, and ad-
' dressiog Mr. Hairs, the Magistrate, observed, that from di,.
cowries be bad made since the prisoner was last brought up, be
' felt it would be absolutely accessary to have the pristine' again re-
manded, in order to enable him to make farthk inquiries, which
be had no doubt in the rod would bring the passing of other notes
home to the prisoner.
/dr. Harmer who attended on the part of the pri.oner, said he
fully understood Mr. Hurler to have said. on the last exioninatiost,
that be should be prepared to go into evidence this day. and he
considered it very unreasonable to expect further time, at the ex-
pense of the prisoner's liberty. against whom there could net be
the slightest charge of having participated in the offence. That he
.had passed three sweet be would out deny, and that fact the pri:
sorter himself admitted, but he at the same time had given the
name of the person from whom he received them, and when his
wife passed them to Messrs, Crosiand Sewell, she gave her proper
name and address. Under such circumstances be should humbly sub-
mit; that the Magistrate omitd be ju:tilled in'alWO:ing the prisoner
his liberty, abiding the investigation. as be litho prepared at that
moment with bail, a right which be was as well entitled to as his
wife, who was then in the office.
hies Butler here produced two notes, which be had no doubt be
could bring home to the prisoner, and as this was a prosecution of
great publ.c importance, be considered he had shown sufficient
grounds to justify him in requiring an extension of time to enable
him to make further inquiries.
Mr. Hair" on looking at the notes, inquired who Capt. Ralph
was, whose name appeared on the back of them.
Mr. Butler said, he was the Captain of a Net.. South Wales
convict ship, called the Albion, and was now unfortunately on his
way to New South Wales. but he (Mr. Butler) was on the look
out for some of his crew to obtain their evidence.
Mr. Harmer conceived the fact of the prisoner's accompanying
his wife into a shop where she was in the habit of dealing, and
there passing the notes, and giving a proper name and address,
looked very unlike an appearance of guilt; and although air. Butler
said he could prove the passing of four notes, ft appeared to him he
could not even prove the passing of two.
Two young men iron Aleuts. Cross and Sewell's were then
examined as to receiving three of the notes, but one of them being
questioned by Mr. Harmer. said the prisoner's wife came to the
shop on one occasion accompanied by another female, anti be could
not swear whiCh of then gave him the note.
Mr. Harmer again called upon Mr. Harass to accept of bail,
which the prisoner was prepared to give to any amount that might
be required.
Mr. Hams said he could have no wish to keep the prisoner in
custody, but when it was contended by the prosecutor's solicitor
that a fourth note would be proved to have been in the prisoner's
custody, and he insisting that be had but three, he could not admit
him to bail until that fact was moved or refuted.
Mr. Harmer said, if the prosecutors were not prepared on the
next day, he would at once put a stop to their present mode of
proceeding, by issuing a habeas corpus, and having the case at once
brought before a Judge.
It was finally agreed that the prisoner should be further remanded
until this day week.
