Julia vas charged with killing and slaving Elizabeth
Pullin; at Manchester. The prisoner pleaded not guilty.
The prisoner was a poultry-dealer in Manchester, and from
the evidence it appeared that the deceased was a woman of very
inteinperate habits, and had been the occasion of a great --deal
of trouble to the priSoner. On the day of the accident he had
been to the Manchester races, and on his return tl,und his wife
in a state of-grbsSintokication: Some angry words-ensued, and
in a moment of passion he gave her the fatal Wound which
caused her death. He was greatly distressed at the time, and
rendered every assistance. Several witnesses bore testimony to
the general good character of the prisoner.—The jury acquitted
the prisoner.

Mary Ann Graham was charged with the wilful murder of a
female bastard chili, at Liverpool. The prisoner pleaded not
guilty to the-charge of murder, but acknowledged her guilt in
concealing the birth of the child.
The evidence in support of the prosnution was not quite sa-
tisfactory. in the opinion of the learned Judge, to convict on the
capital offence, and under his instruction the jury'found the
prisoner guilty of the minor offence, flir which she was sentenced
to be imprisoned one calendar month. -
Samuel Wharf, who was found guilty of stabbing his wife, was
brought up for judgment. The learned judge commented in
very strong language on the enormity of his crime, and said
that,'had the jury found him guilty of intent to murder, lie
should most certainly have let the law take its course. But,
on the recommendatiOn .of the jury, he should not inflict upon
him the severest 'penalty of the law, but should sentence him to
perpetual imprisonment, in chains, i❑ one of the condemned
colonies, forthe term of his natural life; and •he believed that,
compared t►ith the misery and degradation which he would suf-
fer, death itself would be a blessing.
During the, sentence the prisoner required the support of
three or Omr officers, and 'at its conclusion he fainted away, and
was carried down by the assistants. This case terminated the
business of the Crown Court.

NISI PRIUS COURT.-1711IDA Y.
ASSAULT.-I.ltynom *VAIncI.OUG -
Mr. Cresswell- and Mr. Murphy appeared fur the plaintiff;
and Mr. Alexander thr. the defence.
Mr. Can-sswEr.r., in stating the case, said he appeared on be-
half of Mr. Leydon, a gentleman of great respectahility in the
Customs, who had filled situations of tract in the--Customs in
Dublin for a number of years, and who in 18.31 was promoted to
the Liverpool Customs.: The defendant was a tide-waiter, and the
plaintiff complained-that the defendant had committed a very
violent assault•on•him in-the presence of a number of gentlemen,
accompanying that assault on his part with a great deal of pr-
Sonal abuse. lie was told that. the plaintiff and defendant were
not on speaking acquaintance more than was necessary between
supeOors and inferiors in an office. It would scent that Mr.
l'%tirviollgb,had considered that. Mr. Lepton had carried himself
rather too high, and was offended at it, and took the opportunity
t,t insulting Mr. Leydon hail the misfortune to be short
and was in the habit of inking through au eye-glass;
and one day as.he was coining from the Custom-house, the de-
fewhant„ got a ring, and in a very sheeted Manner mimicked him.
Mr. Leydoty said '.`really, sir, I don't know why yin should use.
this conduct to tne." Mr. Fairclough took offence at this, and
afterwards called on Mr. Leydon for au apology or some satisfac-
tion, and affected to be greatly hurt because he would not give
an apology. He_ was told that the defendant was one or the last

persons who would think it necessary to fight a duel. to support
a character for courage.for he was told. he was.a gentleman of
undoubted courage. Mr. Leydon did not think it becoming in
him either to make an apology for a supposed offence, and still
less to fight a duel with Mr. Fain:lough. Besides it was contrary
to the titles of the Custom-house. Mr. Fairctough, on this, took
advantage of the plaintiff coining to the Custom-house . one
morning, and immediately struck him more than once with a
stick, saying, " Now, sir, You are coward ; I have thrashed you
—I have caned you ; " and, calling on the persons around to
witness that he had called him a coward. For this the plaintiff
had called on the laws of his country for protection. The jury
would take into consideration the grievance of, a gentleman in
every sense being called a coward, and used as he had described
amongst his equals. Not the slightest imputation could be cast
on either the character or the courage of the plaintiff, and
his feelings must have been proportionably injured. He cal-
led

Timothy Hensolemn, who deposed to being a landing-waiter,
and knowing both plaintiffand defendant. On the evening of the
25th of Nov. last, as the plaintiff was cowing from the Custom-
house, in the passage, he remarked Mr. Fairclough put a piece of
C straw in imitation of an eve-glass, and ogle the plaintiff in a
very ridiculous manner. He saw the defendant, the morning
after, assault Mr. Leydon by laying his stick over his shout-,
tiers in the long-room, and desire him at the same time to consider
himself as horsewhipped, calling bins a coward. From 40 to 50
persons were present ; the office was crowded.
Cross-examined.—Ile did, not know that the plaintiff was the
terror of all lauding-waiters; he was not the te:,,,)r of hint. He
holieved he had fought several duels. He never heard of his
being engaged in more than one duel. He had never shown him
the mark on his hand. Probably he might be the mower in-
stead of the marquee (laughter.) He had never seen his terrible
pistols. He had heard him speak of them. He never saw the
three crosses on them which marked the three men whom he
had killed. (Loud laughter.) He might be the terror of all the
Custom-house officers but himself. Mr. Leydou had brought
the case before the inspector-general, and there was an investi-
gation. The Board. of Customs recommended au amicable ar-
rangement: that defendant should express his sorrow.fpr the as-
sault in the presence of the landing-waiters who saw it commit-
ted. He was present when the apology was offered before
several of the landing-waiters and several of the heads of the
office. There were perhaps fifteen persons present. The' de-
fendant said he was prepared to apologize; the plaintiff, said
"it was not an apology he wanted." lie had seen Mr. Leydon
put himself in the attitude in which he was in the habit of fight-
ing (laughter.)
Mr. ALEXANDER.-Will you be kind enough to show us that '
attitude ? (Loud laug.hter.)
Witness.-1. am a very bad mimic, lam afraid I could not
do it to your satisfaction. (Laughter.)
Mr. OLIESSIVE, I. objected to the witness being made to show
the attitude, as an irregularity. His lordship, on being appealed
to, decided that it would be so.
Mr. ALEXANDER.—Then you need not show, the attitude.
Witness.—Thank you, sir. (Laughter )
Mr. ALEXANDER.—Did the attitude look very alarming?
Witness.—Yes, it was an outstretched ann. (Laughter.)
Mr. ALEXANDER.—Did he look desperately at his man?
(Continued laughter.) •
Witness.—Yes, just as you did it then, (Loud laughter.)
Mr. A LEx NDEIt.—TO whoni were these attitudes shown?
Witness.—To Mr. Leydon's acquaintance of the higher
classes. (Laughter,)
Mr. AI,KX,ANCER,--flavc you beard him . say anything on
these occasions like_ this—" What a, beautiful corpse I could
make at twelve paces." (Roars of laughter.)
Witness.—Yes, something like it.
Mr. ALEXANDER.—WeII, what was it that was like this beau-
tiful corpse at twelve paces ? - (Laughter.) You must not be
offended at me. _

Witness.-011, no! (Great laughter.) I have never heard
the word corpse out of Mr. Leydon's mouth.
Mr. • ALAXANDER.—Was it carcase think you ? That is a
more delicate wort, you. know. (Roars of laughter.)
Witness.—l never heard that expression from him. He
could not tell what it was like that he heard. Mr. Leydon was
rather quick in a quarrel. He did not know that he was known
in the customs by the familiar term of "the fire eater." No
great distinction was mule between the classes of the tide-
waiters. Their respectability depended on the manner in
which they conducted themselves.
Re-examined.—His impression was that the apology had
been refused as not a satisfaction for the injury,
George Waist examined.—He deposed to being a landing-
waiter at the Custom-house. He was present iu November
last when the -.plaintiff Was assaulted. There were about forty
persons present. Mr. Fairciough appeared waiting for the
plaintiff before he. came in, and on his arrival immediately fol-
lowed him and struck hiin

Cross-examined.--He bad.heard Mr. Leydon was celebrated
for his duels. Ile did not knew that liew as an object of terror.
lie bad heard him 'speak about dhelling. He lied never told
him about the three nien he had killed. (Laughter.)
Mr. ALEXANDER.—What not the three crosses? (Great
laughter.)
Witness.—No; I have heard he kept a pair of pistols. From
his talk they were a pair of beautiful pistols. (Laughter.)
r. ALEXANDER.—Desperate' deadly ones (Laughter.)
Witness.—Yes. (Continued laughter.) I fancy the lauding
waiters were expecting something like the horsewhipping., for
they weiejoStlingtogether to see the performance. (Laughter.)
He had many times seen the attitude Mr. Ley don put himself
in as the attitude its which persons should tight.
Mr. AI.EXANDeIi.—I dare not ask you to show it.
Witness.—No, I can't. •Thereis none but himself 'can do it.,
(Laughter.)
Mr. ALEXANDER.—IIe is inimitable in it? (Continued
laughter.)

Mr. ALEXAVDER, in defence, thought it a great pity that the
plaintiff should have brought this action after the apology
which
had been offered. He ridiculed the idea of there being smell a
difference between the claSses of the parties. lie thought the
quizzing had been a plan amongst the land inpwaiters to ascer-
tain whether the plaintiff was what he wished to appear-such a
terrible man, or, a sort of Bobadil inthe Custom-house. They
appeared to take him for a sort of Bob Acres, and that all this
boasting was " sham Abram," and the landing-waiters wished •
to put his high courage to the test. There was no doubt but
the verdict must go against the defendant, but they must con-
sider what amount of damages would be sufficient. The plain-
tiff had refused an apology, and therefore it appeared as if he
wished to get money from this fourth-class lauding-waiter. it
appeared that the stick was twice laid on his shoulders; it was
laid on, not with a hearty thwack. He bad received no per-
sonal injury. An ample apology had been offered for the
insult, and a gentleman, -kith fine,feelings,of ,honour, would.

. . „
The Artornet-Minevat, Mr: COltman, and Mr. Adolphus ap-
pe4red fur the prosecution, unit Dr. Lirs,wn ani.l Mr. Beauth for
the. defence
The indict ment'ehaiiied the defendant, who :s a ‹urveyor of
the highway between Middleton and Mauchester,, w.:h having
thrown a quantity of iubbiSli on the side of the

giving any notice or erecting any hamlet', whereby one Joshua
Fielding who was driving a mail coach upset it, 'and wheieby
one William Dunn Was iejunet.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL in opening the case sail, this was
an indictment brought by his Majesty's Post Master-C.,noral,
charging the defendant, Mr. Ashworth and several others with
a nuisance on the King's highway. This Was a prosecution
which the Postmaster-General had thought it his duty tO bring,
before them, not with any vindictive feeling, but merely for the
pdtilic safety. The defendant .fias the surveyor of a part of the
highway near Middleton—the great highw'av between Manches-
ter and York. About the month of April, 18'35, some altera-
tions in the line of road were intended, and shortly alter com-
menced. It was the duty of persons who superintend these altera-;
Lions to take care that something was dune to afford a catitiori
to passengers, and particularly by night. On the night of the
19th of December, the mail coach which travels between this
town to York was passing. on the road about nine o'clock at
night. The coachman was Sober, and being aware that some
alterations were going on, he drove steady. On passing along,
his near wheel caught an embankment, thrown up in making
some alterations, by which the coach was overturned, the guard
was severely hurt, and two passengers injured. IJudoubtedly
these alterations must be made, but when made, some fence
should be erected for the purpose of keening the ri,ssenger off
any dangereus ground,. or some person or lantern placed there
to warn the traveller of the danger. Mr. Ashworth was the
surveyor, and has several servants employed under him, who
were all introduced into the record, lest any error or leulit
should arise as to the persun against whom the action should
be brought. The surveyor had expressed his sorrow for what
had occurred, and had promised that greater utution should
be used in future. The Postmaster-General had brought this
action solely as a public duty.
Joshua Fielding deposed to being coachman, and driving the
mail on the 19th of December from. Manchester to Liverpetot.
The night was dark and snowy. On arriving at Middleton;
where they wore making a neiv road, the each was overturned
against a bank of earth, and the whirl 'and a passenger were
much hurt.
Cross-examined by Mi.. 'BitOw N. rk could see his way there.
He was minding his horses, and could not tell whether the pas-
sengers were trying to hind the way, it was SO. dark. 11e was
not the regular coachman ; he had been driving 'or a week:
He could not tell whether there was .a. house within ten yards"
Of the accident; he had net itiessered it. It could not be a foot-
path that upset the coach, there was no footpath. It folks Made.
it a footpath it was a rough 'tot, it was nothing but dirt. There
might be a footpath under the dirt. The coach wheel got on
the diit, and that was all abutit it. The dirt would remain

there till sick times as it was removed. He did not put the hat
over his eves to keel') the snow off, brit pia it on his head to keep
it warm and comfortable. He could not read plans., he knew
nothing about them; he never read a plan in his ri-rt,-.and could
not tell whether the plan pil,duced was correct or not.
He-examined.—He knew the road well, fur he had dray the
"All Nations" on it for two 'ears before.
W. Dunn was guard of the mail on the night in queslon. On
arriving at the place where the accident happened, there was no
lamp or barrier to indiCate where the alterationi had been made;
if there bad, in his opinion, no accident would have h4ppeur4.l.
He was so much injured by the accident as to be confined seven
weeks.

Cross-examined,-,The new road xias under; so far as com-
pleted, then ,the old road.
Arthur Wellesley Critchley, of Woodside, was sitting nn the
box at the time the accident happened, and was injured by it:
Ile believed it, was a part of the new road which caused the
Overturn. There was nothing to .warn pak,engers of the danger.
A lamp and rail were erected when he was past about three
three weeks after.

Cross-examined.—lt was very dirl4, and beginning to snow
when the accident happened. He had said, no blame
could attach to the coachman," but uot: "Lid he could not see

Mr. Thomas Robinson; of Leeds-, deposed to being incite the

cideut happened. He proved the names* the wiokmen who
were employed in making the alti:ri,tions. i;ittl who were in-
cluded in the indictment, and that the piecen:.ire tliey worked

Mr. Wm. Haley, surveyor, was eruploYCd by the past-allies

ment of the post-,oCive to examine where the accidFut happened:.
He saw Mt Ashworth, the defebilant, tcho said that he alone
was to blame, and he would take care it did notoecur again.
Dr. BitowN, in speaking ter the defence, desiguatcd the in-
cluding the poor men in the indictment as a most harsh Ino,
cedure, and that the prosecution was entirely bronght in order
to hasien the completion ot:the road, and that the coach was
overturned at the foot-path, which the defendant had lowered
if,anything, and that there was no yubhish 'placed by theta in
the road.
He called a number of witnesses, who deposed to their beifig;

The jury, after about a quarter of an hour's consultation,
found a verdict for the defendants, but they cousidered it right
to state, as r.‘garded Mr. Ashworth, as a public servant, that he
had been guilty of a great want of caution in not protecting the
public. The verdict was received with ono or two hisses:
