Stealing Tokku ¦< _.- ¦ -At the Exeter _assfe's , J . Sbute ( 37 ) , a labouring man , of very decent appearance , was indicted _fe _* i- stealing seven turnips , the property of bis master , at Northam , on the 33 rd ol February . Mr . Whyte prosecuted . The prisoner svasa labourer in the « naploy oi Capt . Keats , at Northam , and on tho day mentioned he went into _tlieeoow-house , for tbe purpose of feeding the cow-, when bis master ' s coachman ( who was watching his movements ) saw him put some turnips into Iiis _totiket . Immediately afterward _^ , the coachman _suiel to hira , "John , why are you carrying away _Uv so turnips ? " and thu prisoner denied the charge .
Wliei-cupon the coachman told him that he had seen him take them away , and the prhoner then _beuged to heibrgiven . A _confct-siori made by the prisoner before the committing magistrate was put in , nml it stated that he had tukcti the turnip ** , but that lie had never done anything of the kind before . " 1 J _« thought there was no harm in it , as food was so dear . '' It appeared , in answer to a question from the _learntal judge , that tbe prisoner was a married mun with two children , and that his wages were Os . Jy 0 t . a weak . His lordship then inquired who laid the information in this case , nnd one of thu witnesses stated itbat it was Capt . Keats , the _prit-oncr's master . The learned judge , in summing up , raiiarkcd that that ease was oue of a very trilling nature , but , _ncverthnless , it was thc duty of the jury to find the
prisoner guilty , if they ihought the charge had been proved against hint . Verdict—Guilty . llis lord-Bhip said it was very melancholy to see a . respectablekoking man charged with such an offence as the present , but the law would not _allW him to take from his masti r even a few turnips without permission . As he had already been in gaol three weeks , heshould _no-v only sentence him to two d _* iys' imprisonment . T _£ iis prosecution excited great disgust- in court , and when his lordship was informed that similar " depredations" had betn committed on former occasions upon Capt . Keats ' s property , he replied _tlwt it was a hard case that a man , whose _wage-a were not more than 9 s . a week , should be sent to _pri-son omougst tho " scum of tbw * earth" for taking i * even turnips fio . n his master .
_Cuitino and Wounding . —At the Oxford _assiz-s , Ellen Hall ( 43 ) who had a child in her amis , wns indicted for cutting and wounding Mary Hall , at Rugby , on thc 27 th of January , with iHtent to murder , to maim , and disfigure , or do her some grievous bodily harm . Tlie unfortunate little girl _ha-i since died . She was 12 years of ate , and Jived with ber father and the prisoner , who was her stepmother . About seven o ' clock in the morning the child entcrce ' Loid Talbot ' s colliery at Ru _^ lcy , having on only a petticoat and _cliimcse . There was a cut on her face The manager , Mr _Thsmpson , asked her how she cm ' the wound , ns she was crying . They told her that her mother was coming , and she appeared very much _frightened . Uer mother asked if she had said . « _-hi turned her out of doors ? Tho little girl said nothing The prisoner then took hold of the child , and struck her against the door frame ; if she had not c-i-. u-.-hi against the door , ( she _nouid have gone _ai / _ai'li-fc the
_ene-ihe . The little girl then van away , and thc pri soner looked about thc engine-house for htr , bill could not find her , and nothing more was beard ol the poor child until some hours afterwards , when she was found dead in " the bottom of a well near , with twenty wounds upon her body . Su $ p cioii naturally attached to the prisoner . An inquest was held , and great excitement prevailed ; but there was no legal evidence to Hx the prisoner with the horrid crin . c of murJering her husbuid _' s child . The little child being dead , there _was no available evidence * , and after the trial had proceeded some way , bis lordship directed an acquittal on that ground . Tho prisoner was then tried on an indictment , charging her with three assaults on the deceased . The jury found her Guilty . Mr Sergeant _Gazelce said there was no doubt but the prisoner had greatly accelerated , if ( -he had i . ot actually caused thc death ofthe poor child by her inhuman conduct . He then sentenced her to six months' imprisonment .

Tbe insolvent had been a billiard-tablekceper , a tobacconist , and a bill-broker , and bad also been connected with _various loan societies . The complaint of the opposing creditors was for general misconduct . He bad carried on business for the Jast twenty years in _Foiy-strcet , City , 'where he bad kept a billiard-table—that busine _' ss was now carried on by the insolvent ' s son , who was underage , and from whose examination it appuared he had paid his father £ U 0 for the property iu Fore-street , _nhidi money he had won at _luiliaveis . lie also informed the court th it ho had within the last two vears won , atIcast , 3 _l' ( M ., also at billiards .

POACIUSG ASD _AliX'stAt'OiirER . —At Exeter , on Monday , Henry Warren , aged 20 , was it-dieted for the wilful murder of Wm . Setter , -it C < 'Oinbe _.-i » te-ii _> iihcad on the 5 th Sept . Ian . Mr Howe and Mr Cox ' for the prosecution ; Mr Scmo for the defence . The deceased wasemploycd _a _> - \ watchman against poachers . On Saturday night , the oth Sept ., between eieven and twelve o ' clock , the deceased , with a man named Norman , gardener to Sir W . Carew , heard the report of a _j-ttn . They proceeded to call Harris , the _tiatnckeeper , and whilst he was preparing to leave the _hou * . e two other shots were lired . Harris came out , and further assistance haying been proemed , the party went into the fields whence tbe rcpi rts _appeared toissue . They also came to no _understandin-r , that
should one ot them see any one going towards _Ne-wt -ii , be was to call out " Gate ; " and , if in thc opposite direction , the word Field" was to bo tbe signal . Wm . Setter r . nd Robert lieiulcll were of the party who went towards _Bliudwell Field , and Harris , the { . 'amekeepcr , with three others , proceeded to a (" old called " . Stocdiey Hrcafc . " In the course of a few minutes thc word "Gate" was called by those whom the deceased had joined , and immediately aftcrwaids a shot was fired . This shot nas thus explained : Harris and his party , on hearing the ciy Of " Gate " ran _towaids the spot , and when they arrived at Kilnfield Break they saw the prisoner with thc deceased and Robert Iler . dell . Reudell had seized the prisoner , and desin d Harris to assist him . W . Setter ,
_theeb-Cfiist-d _. had bis hand upon the _prisoner ' s head , ai ; d appeared to be in rain . Harris asked him , what was the matter ; and he answered " I am shot , " or , * ' that fellow has shot me . " Harris , the keeper , asked the prisoner why he hail sh . it the man , * and he replied . '' 1 have done it and I urn veiy sorry for it ; I wish the gun hud broken in pieces when first I took it up . " This account of the tramaction was carried soni-rwhat further by the evidence of Robert Rendell , who stated th . it when he and Setter arrived at Kiln-field gate , tlicy heard soni . b idy coming throughjt he hedj ; e . Immediately afterwards the prisoner approached them , carrying a double-barrelled { . 'un , and when hc w . _-w within f _. ur pacaa of the deceased he lifted bis gun tn his shoulder . Seeing be was about to fire , _Rendtll called out , "You had better not fire ; " but before he could repeat the wordstho prisoner
dis-, charged oncbavrefof his gun at the deceased , and then fired the other at Rendell . Retidell was no ' struck , and he immediately seized the prisoner with his left hand , whilst he held tho nun in his right . A scuffle ensued , and Rendell having placed his r un on thc ground , it went off , and the contents tore up the ¦¦ round for somo distance . The other men had by tbis time come to _Rendc-H ' s assistance , and the prisoner Living been secured , attention was paid to tiie deceased , who was then groaning from pain . ] t was found thnt he had received a wound in the _uppcrpart of tke stomach . On the i ' oUowini * afternoon , at two o ' clock , be died , and a post mortem examination took . lice , when several shots , a link of a wntcb-chain , and a piece of wadding , was found in his stomach . Mr Sto-e , _-iddie _* s _* . d the jury lor the prisoner , and contended that there was not sufficient evidence to
_prsvc that the death of the deceased was caused hy thc violence of theprisoner . It was very _possible that the deceased had received tlio wountl from the shot which was Bred at Robert Rendell , or from tho gun whieh went off accidentilly . Assuming , _however , that thc prisoner did fire ' at Setter , and that Setter ' s death was thc consequence , there was no evidence of any malice on the prisoner's part . If the _Ueepcis _u-ii not been _swraisil with guns , doubtless the man ' s death would not have ensued . Hi contended that the case was not free from doubt , and that , therefore , the ptwncv was entitled to an acquittal . After Mr Justice Williams bad summed up , the jury retired , and after an absence of about half an hour returned into court with a verdict of Guilty of Manslaughter . Scnteuce deferred .
Arson . _—LisTiNiNo I'olicbmks , —At Cambridgeon Tuesday , Wiiliam Francis was indicted for having set ( ire to two stacks of wheat , of the value of £ 400 , 'Iho evidence was , for the most part , of the _ciecumstantiiilltind usual on such occasions , being a history of the prisoner ' s proceedings on the day of the fire , and thenceforward to Iiis being taken into custody . It presented also the customary account of _threateninglauguage used by the prisoner , and of a comparison of impressions made by the shoes ol the _prif-oner with certain footmarks in the neighbourhood of the stack . The only novelty was , tbat _whsn an _inspectorof police was called to speak _nbaut statements said to have been made by tke ptisener whilst in bis cell , it turned out that tho inspector had overheard
them by listening at the door of the cell . Mr Justice Coleridge thereupon _interposed , and said that in this case , at all events , such evidence might be rejected , because the person to whom the statements had been made could be called . In any case , however , he should receive with the _greatest reluctance , if , indeed he should not reject , evidence so obtained , fur it was impossible that n jury should not suspect , and perhaps disbelieve , all the evidence ofa person who had descended to such unworthy means of _Jjainii g information . The inspector then urged that he had often been blamed for not having on similar occasions , listened to what had been said . Mr Justice C-ileridgo said that if such a course of proceeding was suggested to policemen it could no longer be a matter of wonder that an ill opiuion of theia ms en *

Mr Justice _ColoridS in- * summed up with Creat minuteness , the _nT returned a verdict ot Guilty , and the prisoner » H sentenced to be transported for ten years BiOAMT . —At the Norfolk Assizes , Jane Baker _rtgel 21 was indicted for b . samy . It appeared that in October , 1836 . the _pris-mer was married tn _GeorS
Baker , who worked in a _cotton-mill . She lived with him but a short time , but two years afterwards thev came _together again for a time , and then again parted , havin had one child . In January last vear the prisoneragron married Henry Hyde , her former husband bemjr then and still alive . She said she was not lawfully married to Baker , bewu-c she had married him in a wron _? name , and that she had married him in a wrong name in order that she might leave him when she Jikcd . Mr Baron a | _, _| 8 r . son told the jury they had nothing to do wji | _,, u question as to the name of the prisoner . The onlv
question for them was , whether the prisoner tvas the person who was married to Baker , there _bcinc no doubt it was she who married Hyde . 'Flic jury _having found her euilty . his lordship told her that the law would not permit her to take advantage of hor _o-v n fraud in marrying in a false name , bad she indeed done so . As against her , at all events , the first marriage was valid . As , however , so much injury was not inflicted by the commission of this offence by a woman as by a man . heshould onlv sentence her to be imprisoned , andkp pt to hard ' labour , for three calendar months . F . 4 LSE _iMPRISOXMfcST . _—TvtE ! t A _\ D _W'FEV . _R _. KV . J . Dcdw . y axt > _AsoTiiKn . —This was an action to recover damages for false imprisonment . The defendants
are two of * he magistrates of the Liughboroush district ; M . A . Tyler is the wife of thc other plaintiff , a labourer , living at Wimcswold , Leicestershire This woman had a difference with another of her own sex , and epith . ts were exchanged , tho result of wliich was an application to the ninjristrafes against the female prisoner . She acknowledged she had mads use of the _offensive epithet imputed to hor , and fxpressed regret at bavin" done so . The magistrates ( the present defendants ) said ? bey bad no jurisdiction in a case of had _langunse , and cautioned her to be careful for the future , _disraissins : the complaint , and ordering Mrs Tyler to pay the costs to ( he amount of £ 118 s . Tho poor woman _s-iid she could not piyshe was told she must pay in a week , or po to prison . At the next weekly meeting plaintiff _atten- _' ed andstated she had a family of small children , she was poor , and could not pay the costs imposed , and that ,. if it insistedshe
was , must eo to prison . To prison she accordingly went , for costs , in a case , in which the magistrates said _thr-y had no jurisdiction ! It seems that one ofthe _vbitintr magistrates ( Hodgson ) seeing this person in the gaol , and hcin <* struck with her cleanly appearance , inquired the reason of her being there , and upon being informed , he made it Ills business to see the _commiment , and feeling it was bad , he _commnnicnt-.-d with tha cleric of the peace who confirmed Mr _He-id-rson in his previously-funned opinion . Itappcarcd from the commitment , that the magistrates in this very case , in which they dismissed the complaint for the want of jurisdiction , had actually sentenced tbis woman , whose character was without spot or blemish ( save in this instance ) , tofourteen days' _imprisenment and hard labour , merely for default of payment of fees which they hnd no riubt to impose . Upon application to tbo Secretary of Sfa ? e she was released . Actions were then brought by the plaintiff for the loss of his wile ' s service , and
a second action in their joint names . In both , live pounds had heen paid into court , and a plea entered of no further damage . In tbe action by the husband alone , the five pounds had been taken out in satisfaction , bu !* . the joint action was proceeded with . This case would have been tried at the last assizes , but for the application of the defendants to postpone it , on . the ground of thc absence of a material witness . Since that time they had made the case a spouial jury . The learned juilge told tbe jury tho magistrates had clearly mistaken tbe law . They had no _jurisdiction in the casebro-----. it before them , and the only quest ion for the jury wa * - , whether the five pounds paid into court were a sufficient compensation forthe damage sustained . The jury i r ave for thc plaintill ' , fifteen pounds over and above the sum pa ' _t-I into court .
