T. RoberU. Before the case woe opened by the Attomey-OoncraL Mr. Aln4.n .1 uuuutiu ma uuinnusBum irom tne uovernor- Gcncrol to defend the case. Tho Judge said he was ntnwore it was necessary to produce a commission.

The Attorney stated the facts of tho esse, and called the followinc witnesses: Julia Dalv. Watson Augustus Steele. Richard Lee. Pntnr Shan. non.

Dr. Gilhooly, Dr. Warren, and Dr. Ruttcr. The facts of this case having been fully reported at snd the coroner inqucBt, also at the Police Olllcc, renders it unnecessary to repeat them here.

The examination of Dr. Ruttcr was began, when his Honor said that there was no evidence where tho body was put, nothing to show when and whero tlte body wos concealed, and nothing to show that the do fondant was assisting in concealing the birth, by wuy of disposing of tho body. Ho had also been much struck with the evidence that thcro was no smell about the house during tho hot weather. Ho (the Judge) would not ooll upon Mrs. Smith for her defence, for there was not a tittlo of evidence to justify what had been brought against her.

A lie jury then returned a verdict of not guilty, and the Court adjourned at twenty minutes post five, till ten o'clock on Monday morning (this day). Second Court. Before Mr. Justice Milford. rniutmv.

hearing of a case in tho Central Police Court, Sydney, on tne vwtn any oi uctoocr, lBotf, commit wilful and corrupt perjury. Mr. Butler appeared, on bohulf of tho Attorney. General, for the Crown. The prisoner was defended by Mr.

Dolley, tho attorney for tho prisoner boing Mr. Moffatt. Mr. Butler addressed the jury. It appeared that, on the 27th of October last, a oomploint mode against one Ellon Snowden, by another woman named Sarah Maddox, for having, on the 21st of that month, used some grossly insulting language, had been heard snd determined before the bench, at the n.i!..

rru. nr 1 hearing of that case, had distinctly sworn that she had heard Snowden, at a certain hour in the afternoon, oi tne -ist uctoDeriaBi, manouaooi somo particularly insulting expressions her statement in that respect being positively rebutted by tho evidence of sevoral persons who would prove that, at tho time and place referred to, the Baid Snowdon did make use of tho language alluded to. Abe first witness called for the Crown was Mr. James Martin, the deposition clerk in the Central Police Office, who produced the record of the case, out of the hearing of which the charge of perjury had originated. Kllen Snowden being sworn deposed that on the 21st of October last she was in her father's house, in Uiarencc-street sne was engaged mangling that afternoon; she did laugh at Mrs.

Maddox that evening, but did not say anything insulting to ner at all that uav. either in the house nr the street Mrs. Maddox lives opposite to the residence of witness; witness dm not go out into tne street that afternoon not further than the foot-path was engaged in mangling until near eleven, and left off to rest now and then went next door into tho houBe of Smith (the brother-in-law of witness) at half-past six witness remained about her own door and that of her brother-in-law all that afternoon it was not truo that on that evening, or on any part of that day, she (tho witness) had said these words" The old mare is SBieep now, tne annic nas overcome ner if I had her out now, I'd stamp her guts out witness never made use of sucn expressions, end was not in the habit of using such language there were some disgusting expressions made use of that evening towards witness Dv airs, uaaaox. out witness only laughed at them, and sang to drown Airs. Maddox voice in making use oi tne language which she did.

By Mr. Dalley Since lost June witness had not been on good terms with Mrs. Maddox Mis. Mad dox blackguarded her that evening because as witness supposes she went into Smith's house Mrs, Maddox wss calling witness a cow, and a mare, but witness oi.ly laughed at her witness sat with a cat on her lap on the pavement opposite to Mrs, Mad- dox's house, twisting the tail of the cat whilst making the noise of a barrel organ, and singing and laughing with Smitn was partly doing tuts at Mrs. Maddox Mrs.

Maddox was annoyed at it this was not exactly done to annoy her witness did It at first to please herself, and afterwards would not put the cat down when sne round, it vexed otaodox. fFurther examined, witness deposed that she recol. lected a particular word being used to this word it appeared than an indelicate slang, or (as the counsel for the defence phrased it) lymbolical, meaning was attached witness did laugh at tho use of that woid. 'Witness said of Maddox that she would want a doctor in the morning, and said (audibly) to the cat that she wss glsd she did not come ftom Billings- Sate when witness went to Smith's door she said lat she thought there was going to be a lark with Mr. and Mrs.

Maddox that night it was long after this that the cat was on witness's knee Mrs. Maddox spoke from the opposite side of the street the young woman Coleman, examined at the Police Offlce in this esse, was now gone to Goulburn Coloman never told witness what language she (witness) had tlta juwtaatnn Vnfemul tn Smith had not been on good terms with Mrs. Maddox for a great many months the neighbourhood was quiet ex cent when Mrs. Maddox got drunk on tho even ing hi question, witness had supper at the house of ner Drotner-in-iaw ana naa ouiuetuiug wj had heard Smith' and Mrs. Maddox have words twice have never heard suoh language used bV Smith as bv Mrs.

Maddox on such occasions. By Mr. Butler Witness said that she thought there, would be a lark because she saw that Mrs. Maddox had come home in liquor. William Smith, being swom, deposed that he had seen Mrs.

Maddox on the 21st October last: his attention was particularly oalled to her at half.nsst six the siBtor-in law of witness was in tho house of witness at seven o'clock and again at eleven saw her come from her own door to the house of witness witness was Bitting working at his window, and could see any one going into Mrs. Maddox's there is a lamp in front of the door of Maddox's tho street is not a wide one, and when no carts and horses are passing, witness ium fas ho sits at work, hear what is there said the door of witness' house was open all that evening did not hear his sister-in-law make use of ooarse and insulting language witness says that the language alleged to have been used by his sister-in-law on that nicrlit.waa nnf tiftad hv hor. and that he never had heard her use such language in tho whole course of his life. By Mr. Dalley Witness hot not been on speaking terms with Mrs.

Maddox the witness' wife was fined a shilling at the Police Office in consequence of a dispute between them witness remembers the "cat's toil business remembers witness' sister-in-law stroking the cat did not hear her say to the oat that she was glad she did not come from Billingsgate never heard her utter such words whsnMrs. Maddox comes home drunk it is usually expected that there will be a row; tho neighbours generally expeot it; there may have been a few people looking on at the time referred to saw th last witness going towards her father's house on one occasion witness and Ellen Snowden were singing to drown the vulgarity of Mrs. Maddox, Re-examined by Mr. Butler Witness did not hear such language as that which has been imputed to her about the "mare," if aha had witness would have noticed and romombered it. Ann Smith the wife of the tost witness and sister to Ellen Snowden, being sworn, deposed that, on the day in question, Mrs.

Maddox appeared to be a little inebriated. Witness' evidence generally corroborated the statement of the previous witness she had not heard her sister make uso of the language imputed to her tho words above-mentioned her sister was not in the habit of making use of suoh language. Witness will not swear that Mrs. Maddox was thuiik that night she had been drink-ing there was an action ponding on account of false statement made by Mrs. Maddox respecting the conduct of witness, as Smith's wife, whilst hor husband was absent at Rockhampton witness and her husband do not agree, on account of that statement witness, hoi husband, and hor, sister supped together bibkw ajiua.

io uio cat max nignt. Re-examined by Mr. Butler: Was In tho room workinn with herhuahand all that and a bear her sister make use of the language which has just been read to her. John Thomas Tesslmond, being sworn; deposed that be lived in Clarence-street he was there on the, 21st oi voioner last uvea next door to Mrs. Maddox was there from half-post nine to half-past twelve: saw her come home that evening she wss (as witness believes) drunk at the time knows Ellen Snowden did not see Ellen Snowden in the street that night did not see her go further than the kerb as she went across from her father's to hor brothers witness did hear her say something near her brother-in-law's doer, but nothing that had any reference to Mrs.

Maddox. The language imputed to Ellen Snowden having been read by the learned counsel to witness, minims says mat no never neara ner make use or such language, and he has known her for many years since 1860. By Mr. Dalley After acven o'clook witness wss walking about the streets, and came back at half-past nine. Witness ia on pretty good terms with the Snowden's.

There are rows of a night pretty frequently in Clarence-street. A good deal might have taken place at Maddox's, Smith's, and Snowden's that witness might not have heard. Witness heard something said by Mrs. Maddox and Mr. Smith about mutton.

This closed the case for tho Crown. Mr. Dalley addressed the iurv In a verv able speech, characterising the case as ono of the most trumpery and contemptible that had ever been brought before that Coutt, resting, as it did, wholly on the unsupported evidence of the witness Ellen Snowden. The learned counsel commented upon the evidenco of that witness, and the manner in which it had been delivered afterwards proceeding to argue that tho oorroborative evidence adduced was of such a character as to ronder it absolutely valueless. Ho referred uriatim to the various particulars ot the testimony of Snowden, Smith, snd his wife, and TesBimond, in terms which oaused considerable merriment in court at the expense of the unfriendly parties, whose characters were indirectly but prejudicially affected by the case on trial.

It was a mere family affair in which the Snowdens and the Smiths were at foud with the antagonistic families of Maddox and Woods.

CHABOB OP MOttDEB. Elizabeth Aldtidee was indioted for that she. on the tenth day of December last, at Botany, did un, lawfully kill and murder a female child, name un, known. Mr. Butler appeared for the Crown.

Mr. Somerville at tho special request of his Honor undertaking to act as counsel, ana mr. wiuiam ttoDerts as tne attorney for the prisoner. A jury was empannelled to try whether tho prisoner was mute py tne visitation oi uoa, or oi matice. Having heard the evidence of the Sheriff, to the effect that she could speak, they roturned a verdict accordingly.

Tho jury were then swom to try the issue, as to whether the prisoner was, or was not sufficiently sane to ue DUie VJ Htuitu ner trial. T. TI' .1 stated that ho had seen ner that morning, and had seen her once before, previous to her being sent to the Lunatic Asylum, and shortly after she was first brought to the gaol she was sent to the Lunatio Asvlum under the medical certificate of witness in witness' opinion the prisoner is not sane not in a fit state of mind to stand her trial. Mr. Woodcock, a duly qualified practitioner, being sworn, concurred in tne opinion expressed by the previous witness no naa seen prisoner mai uiunung wiin.M tialiAvpd that aho could not rjetfectlv under stand what was going on before hor her intellect was imnairefl.

The iurv at once returned as their verviot that the prisoner, Elizabeth Aldridge, is inoapable of understanding the indictment or the pleadings, ana not in a fit state of mind to stand her trial. His Honor directed her to be detained in custody until his Excellency pleasure was Known. Tha nnnv creature anneared to be much detected. but utterly unconscious of the awful position in which she was placed. She stood motionless in the dock, without the slightest show of fear or anxiety.

uum Mr. Isaacs appeared as counsel for the prisoner. and, Instructed by Mr. William Roberts, attorney id the case, moved for the prisoner's discharge. The Attorney-General Baid that, in consequence of the evidence which had been given in court on Saturday, in tho cose of Begins versus Smith, and because hehad reason to know that further evidence would be this day forthcoming, if required, tending to con-trndint anortion of the evidence for the prosecution, he felt that he would not be justified in putting the piisoner Leaden upon her trial.

The Court thereupon directed the prisoner's dis chargehaving bound her over, on hor own recog nisances, to sppear cauea upon. The prisonor was then disoharped. vonomLB untht. Emnnuol Joscphson, Edward Sadler, and John Thomos.Bnker, were indioted of having, at Sydney, on the 22nd November, 1859, by force of arms, unlawfully entered the Victoria Theatre, then in possession of Samuel Colville, and the said Samuel Colvillo, by force of arms, uniawiuliy expelled, tnerotrom. Thn Attomev-Genev-1 enniliiotpd the nmsccutlon the accused were defended by Mr.

Darvoll, Q. and Mr. Stephen, The first witness was Samuel Colville, who deposed that the at date mentioned in tho indictment, he was manager of the Victoria Theatre, which he held by power of attorney and lease from Simmons, the lessee. Having heard that Josephson had taken possession of the theatre on the 22nd November, he went to him and asked it back, when Josephson refused, saying that witness had acted foolishly in regard to the theatre he had arranged with Mr. Poole of tho Prince of Wales Theatre that he should have the management of both theatres, and It was understood that as only ono theatre would pay, the Victoria should be closed as for as was consistent with the lease.

The lease was put in and some olauses read. There were conditions that the theatre ahould not be sub-let, and that it should not be closed for more than soven nights in succession. James Winning, the property-man of the Victoria Theatre, deposed to Mr. Josephson, fn oompany with a gentleman whom he did not know, coming into the pit of the theatre, taking possession, and telling witness to put a padlock on the gates. Charles Jones deposed that, on tho evening of the 21st November, the theatre was openod for dramatio performances about half-past eight, the proper hours for opening being seven or half-post.

There was no notification of a performanco the theatre was lighted with candles instead of gas I no money was taken at the doors, but abeut fifty persons got inside the performances consisted of selections from plays and a portion of Box and Cox but tho aotors were not mado up for the parts. The witnoss also proved that ho had, on tho part of Mr. Colville, endoavoured to forco his way Into tho theatre, but was repulsed by Josephson, Sadler being present Babr. at, that time, the jury, by Ws Honor's direction, at onoe acqSlttei Mi. Darvall addressed the tending that there was a breach of the covenant of the lesse, In tha first instance, by Simmons transferrins! the theatre to Colville and, secondly, by Colville sub stituting a farcical and riotous exhibition for the cgium uiduiauu jraiunnonces proviaea tor by the lease.

The Attorney-General then replied, and his Honor having summed up, the jury after a short consultation returned a veidict of not guilty. TOBCIBLB ENTBT. James Neale. John Conner.

Richard Stewart, comedian, was about to play on the 26th November, by permission of Mr. Josephson, but when he went to the theatre he found it closed. By Mr.

Darvall Dp to the 22nd October he played under Colville. and to the 19th November under Poole. Cbarles Jones opened the theatre on 28th Novem- ber, but there were no pbicaids issued there were candles on the stage, and four actors played frag mentary pieces.

All the doors were open and they went in, nobody offering resistance in any shape.

The Judge said he could not withdraw the case, and Mr. Darvall then addressod the jury. His Honor having summed up, the jury, after a quarter of an hours consultation, roturned a verdict of not guilty. The Court presided over by Mr, Justice Dickinson will not sit to-day. Second Covbt.

Before Mr. Justice Milford. kubdbb. Sarah Sadler was indicted for that she, on the 18th day of January last, at Wollongong, did feloniously kill and murder a certain Infant child nameto the Attorney-General unknown. The proBecution on the part of the Crown was conducted by the Solicitor-General.

The prisoner was defended by Mr. Isaacs and Mr. Dalley the attorney 1 for the defence being Mr. E. J.

Cory. The Solicitor-General addressed the jury, and gave an outline of the circumstances of this very painful case. They were of such a peculiar nature that it may, perhaps, be undesirable to do more than to fur- -nish a brief statement of tho particulars. It appeared that a married woman named Brough, on the rooming of tho 18th of January last, had seen Sarah Sadler going home towns-da her residence from a neighbouring paddock under such circumstances as induced her to surmise that something was wrong. Having spoken to two other, married women, she and they proceeded to the paddock whence the woman Sadler appeared to have come, and there discovered that which went to confirm them in their apprehensions as to what had ooourred.

They accordingly communicated their suspicions to Mi. Hildebrsna, the chief -constable of the district, and furnished him with the proofs which had led them to come to the conclusion that Some birth of a ohild had secretly taken place. The constables and these three women accordingly proceeded to the same paddock (tho ono from which Sadler appeared to have come) on tho following day, Thursday, the 10th, There a naked infant child was, after some delay, found, lying in a sheltered spot amongst the scrub, and partially con- nanlr.A1 fetth hniicrha. It WAS ItlBt BUd WSS covered with ante. Tho women and tho constables (whose humane and judicious conduct received a weU merited tributo of approbation from the leatnes JiiitmO took the poor babe away to Mrs.

Brouah'S i house, where it was, under Dr. Lambert's orders, carefully attended, to by Mrs. Burrell, who did alia. mother duty towards it until it died at a quarter-past five that evening. The.

child was so far ally; that, when placed in a warm bath, it groaned and opened its eyes. When first discovered it was lying on its side, and there was a piece of rag rolled up afi; stuffed into its mouth. Thus far the evidence of Mrs. Brough, whioh was fully substantiated by the other witnesses. The evidence of Thomas Hilda-brand corroborated Mrs, Brough's statements', and disclosed facts which tended to show that the prisoner Sadler had been very recently confined of this important proof was adduced from a discovery of something hidden in the garden, or rather the ground, adjacent to the house of Eoston (the stepfather of the prisoner), where the prisoner resided.

The prisoner on being spoken to about all this, mode use of this remarkable expression "If you will give me I'll take core of It," or (as another witnoss ex- rested it), you will bring me tho ohild I will ring it up, and own It." Mrs. Ann Jane Baxter, Mrs. Ann Burrell, and a constable named Edwi Searle, stated various circumstances incidental to tho case, and all strongly corroborative of the above general narrative. Thomas Easton, also, the husband of the prisoner's mother, oonflrmed tn statement of Brough as to the apparent pregnancy of -i o.ji a which ano W1B VUmwi BBUiur, niu na returned home at four o'clock In tho afternoon of too 18th January. It' seemed that he had been led to suppose by the prisoner and her mother that no birtn.

had token place. He had known the three and twenty years, and eonsidered her nigntJ never quite in her right mind." She was, said, moie like a madwoman thror anything also when she camo back to his house on the afternoon oi the 18th January."
