OF 603TS. The ijUintiff in this case are solicitors, and they sued Coptain Booth to recover 901 2s. the amount of some' bills of costs. Mr. Sergeant Byles and Mr.

Harcourt appeared fqr the plaintiffs, and Mr. Pinder for the defendant. Captain Booth, it appeared, is the son of Mr; Booth, formerly in business in Brentford as a distiller, after whosB death various legal proceedings were instituted, and the costs of those proceedings were now Bought to be reoovered. Various admissions were mtde in the case, and evidence was then given to prove the retainer. Captain Booth was called, and he stated that he bad been given to he believed by Messrs.

Watson's managing clerk but it was eight yeara ago and he could not recollect with precision that the costs of some proceedings in lunacy should be paid out of the lunatic's estate. The lunatic was- hu brother. He also understood that some other portion of the costa waB to be paid out of a fund in Chancery. Mr. Rogers, the plaintiffs' managing olerk, was called in reply, and he said what passed was this proceedings were taken they told Captain Booth" that tbey must have the authority of the Master an Lunacy, otherwise, if he failed, he would have to pay the costs personally.

That arose from his wishing proceedings to be taken without the authority of the Master. Nothing was said as to the plaintiffs not being paid the usual way, or to release Captain Booth from his personal liability. The oosts could be paid out of the lunacy fund on the petition of the committee. A petition had been prepared, but Captain Booth would not allow it to be presented. The plaintiffs" could not get the fund omVof court but Captain Booth could not do so immediately.

There was a fund properly applicable to the paying of these costs. Tfc jury gave a verdict for the amount of the plaintiffs' claim and interest, 954 9s. 5d. nnr.rsn fiBiaMBTVO Po I ras isstrucraa oy- i in His deli-ble of th. Port-office, to watoh th T.ry at Brompton.

Mr Lewis, for the defence, said he should stow that the prisoner went iato the public-house to ask where a person named Holman lived, and to wait a few minutes as the potman was the only person who knew, and be-was out.

He waited till Diek, the potman, came in, and having ascertained the address, we n.t on and delivered the letter. The cigar was given him -by the landlord. The landlord was called, and gave evidence to that effect, but on cross-examination, admitted that all this occurred at half-past six, and not at half-past nine.

Considerable stir was made in the neighbourhood of Kin eswood a few days ago, when it was k' own that the daughter of a farmer in the neighbourhood bad eloped with ber father's ploughman. The farmer had, by way of encouraging him in his duties, occasionally joked the wary lover about his daughter, but not with the remotest idea that such an event should ever take place -consequently, his chagrin at the tarn affairs have taken may be easily imagined. The true Iovyers" bolted on the Saturday evening lodged the barinB with the session-olerk of the district, and earl; on the morning of the following Monday the two were joined in wedlock by a clergyman in neighbouring town for better or for worse. The farmer 1b said to bs inconsolable for the" loss of his daughter, and has no doubt by this time learned a lesson from the old Scots proverb, to joke at leisure." Einross-shire Advertiser.

It had baen rumoured for some days previous that violence would be used to deter Mr. Moore from officiatii and though two priests were in attendance, and the national sobool was olosed to allow its scholars to jfiin in the expected row, the minister was at hie post.

He, however had hardly got within sight of the burial ground when hooting and yelling, suoh as you might imagine the sepoys to indulge in while employed in their hellish massacre in D.1M and Cawepore, mmenced. This disgraceful conduot oontinued during the entire service, and even after the minister had left tha burial ground ho was followed and hooted, for nearly a mile on the publio road, by a orOwd of men, women, and ohildcn, the children of the national folic ol of Cross" being hs most conspicuous.

IN RE GEORGE OSBORNE TOWNSHEND, This insolvent, known as George Townshend, and also as the Bev. George Townsond, was to be heard under the Protection Act, his case having stood over from Monday. Mr. Dowse, Mr. Bicker Caarten, Mr.

Lawrance, and Mr. Reed, appeared for creditors, and several other creditors attended to oppose in person Mr. bargood supported. The schedule as filed contained 110 creditors, and the debts were 2,738 19s. and after deducting the debts without value, and others more than once entered, the actual debtB were 2,390 14s.

principally-contracted with tradesmen. The appearance was attributed to the insufficiency of his means, and it seems -he had an allowance from his brother, the Mai quia of Townshend, of 500. He had resided some time at Chiswick, Mr. Sargood, informed the learned Commissioner, who had specially appointed to-day for the hearing, that Lord George Townshend was unable to atteud, as lie was confined to his bed by a severe nttnek of the gout in both knees. He produced a certificate from Mr.

Leigh, a surgeon of Turnham-green, dated the 3d of December iuBtant, to that effect. A young gentleman, a friend of his lordship, who resided in the same house, proved th'. he was confined to bis bed. He saw Mr. Leigh with the certificate which ho now produced.

His lordship was out on Wednesday. Two creditors gave evidence that the insohent was a TEE MASSACRE OF THE HUNDRED EMI-GRANTS BY THE MORMONS. In our laat publication- we gave the aubstano of a juniour which bad just then reached tie, of the massacre of a large party of on their way to this State, by Great SltLke City. We were unwilling at first to credit the statement, and hoped that rumour had exaggerated the faotB, but the report has been the loss of life is greater than at first reported. This is the foulest massacre that has ever been perpetrated on thin route, and one wlii.ili calls loudly for the active interposition of the Government.

Over one hundred persons hare fallen by the hands of the merciless destroyers, and we hope that immediate steps will be takt-n by'tlie authorities to inflict a terrible retribution on those concerned. There is no longer reason to doubt the facts, we have them from different parties, and all agree in placing the number of the slain at over one hundred bouIb, men, women, and children. The details, a far as yet known, are these A train of emigrants, from Missouri and Arkansas, for this State, were waylaid and cruelly butohered on their route, st a place called Santa Clara Canon, near the. rim of the Great Basin, about 800 miles toWt Wke citv The scene of the massacre is- differently desig-natd, as IhTsanta Ctar. Canon the Menntajn Spring, and the Mountain Meadows ut aU agree in locating it near the rim of the Great Basin, and about fifty miles from Cedr CUV, the most southern of the Mormon set-aementr Of party of aboutl33 persons, only fifteen fnZt children saved The account i given by the Indians themselves to the Mormons at Cedar City, to which ptacethey brought the children who were pur-Chased from them by the people of that city WheOwr fhp cause assigned issuffieient to accountfor the result, ZLlmtoei.

at the bottom of the transaction, we will leave the reader to form In. own conclusion. We can scarcely believe that a party travelling along a highway should act the wanner described, that is to poison the car-oass ot an ox, and also the watery thus endangering the lives of those who were coming after them Yet this is the story told by all who have spoken of the massacre. It it stated, the emigrants had an ox which died, and they placed poison in the body, and also poisoned the water standing in pools for the pur-pose of killing the Indians that several, of the tribe had died from this cause, and that the whole force mustered, pursued the train, end coming up with them at the above-named place, wlnoh favoured their pur-pose, attacked and murdered the whole party, except a few infant children. The Indians state that they made but one charge on the party, in which they cut off the ereater portion of men, and then guarded the outlets of the Cmion, and shot the men and women down as they came out for water that one man was making his escape with a few children, and they followed him, and took the children, fifteen in number, the eldest under five years of age.

The report was brought to San Bernardino by Messrs. Siduey, Tanner, and Mathews. The following letter from Mr. J. W.

Ctmatian, of San Bernardino, to Mr. G. N. Whitman, of this oity, says the Los Anqeles Star (California), has been kindly placed at our, disposal, and we give it at length, as.it is the fullest report of the massacre, and the cause which led to it, that has readied us. The writer seems to intimate that the Mormons will be held responsible for the murder, and in this respect he is fully borne out by indications, for a general belief pervades the pubho mind here that the Indians were instigated to this onme by the Destroying Angels" of the ohurcli, and that the blow fell on these emigrants from Arkansas, in retribution of the death of Parley Pratt, which took place in that State.

The truth of tlie matter will not be known until the Government make an investigation of the affair. This should be done, to place ibenroiame in toe right fiuarter, as well as to inflict chastisement on the immediate actors in the fearful tragedy, who are reported to be the Santa Ciara tribe of India. The following is tliu letter San Bernardino, Oct. 4, 1857. take this opportunity of informing you of the murder of an entire train of emigrants, on their way from Missouri arid Arkansas to this State, via Great Salt Lake City whioh took place, accoidiug to the best information 1 can possibly acquire (which is, primarily, through Indians), a the Mountain Meadows, whioh are at, or near the rim of the Great Basin, and some distance south of the most southern Mormon settlements, between the 10th and 12th ultimo.

It is absolutely one of the most horrible massacres I have ever had the painful necessity of relating. The company consisted of about 130 or 135 men, women, and children, and including some forty or forty-five capable of bearing arms. They were in possession of quite an amount of stock, consisting of horses, mules, and oxen. The encampment was attacked about daylight in the morning, so say the Indians, by tlie combined forces of all the various tribes immediately in that section of the country. It appears that the majority of them were slain at the first onset made by tlie Indians.

The remaining force formed themselves into the best position their circumstances would allow, but before they could make the necessary arrangements for protecting themselves from the arrows there were but few left who were able to bear arms. After having corralled their waggons, and dug a ditch for their protection, they continued to fire upon the Indians for one or two days, but the Indians had so secreted themselves that, according to their own statement, there was uot one of them killed and but few wounded. They (the emigrants) then sent out a flag of truce, borne by a little girl, and gave themselves up to the mercy of the savages, who immediately rushed in and slaughtered all of tliwn, with the exception of 15 infant children, that have since been purchased, with much difficulty, by the Mormon interpreters. I presume it would be unnecessary for all practical purposes to relate the causes which give rise to the above-described catastrophe, from the simple fact that it will he attributed to the Mormon people, let the circumstances of the case be what they may. But it seems from a statement which I received from Elders Wm.

Wathew and Wm. Hyde, who were in Great Salt Lake City at the time this train was there, recruiting their fit out and were on the road to this place at the time when they were murdered, but several days' journey in the rear somewhere about the Beaver Mountains, which is between Par.iwan and Filmore cities that the causes were something like these. The train camped at Corn Creek, near Fillmore City, where there is an Indian village, the inhabitants which have raised a crop of wheat, and a few melons, And in trading with the IndiaDS they gave them cash for wheat, and they, not knowing the value of ooin, were severely cheated. They wanted a blanket for a sack of wheat, but they gave them fifty cents, and told them that amount would buy a blanket. They also had an ox with them which had died, and theyput strychnine in him for the purpose of poisoning the Indians, and also put poison of some description in the water, which ib standing in holes.

This occasioned several deaths among them, witliina few days after the departure of thetrain and upon this, it seems, the Indians gathered themselves together, and' had, no doubt, chosen the place of attick, and arranged everything before the train arrived at the place where tbey were murdered. It was ascertained by some of the interpreters, from a few of the Indians who were left at Corn Creek, that most of the Indians in tho country had left but they could not learn for what purpose, and before any steps could be taken to ascertain for certain what was the cause, the story was told-they were all killed.

HOME CIRCUIT Maidstohb, Dbc. 3. Before Mr. Justice WlLLsa. Humphrey Wkkham, 49, was indicted for feloniouly shooting at Elizabeth Wickham, his wife, with intent to murder her.

Mr. Addison conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Eibton. The prisoner, it appeared, was a labouring man, residing at a place called Bedford-row, in Maidstone and on Sunday, the 20th of September, he came home very much intoxicated, and bringing with him a gnn which it appeared he had purchased.

His wife remonstrated with him upon his folly in purchasing such a thing as a gun, and tliis led to a quarrel, and the prisoner became-very excited and exclaimed, You are my wife and I will shoot you and she, being alarmed at this, ran out of the house, and when the had gone a short distance she turned into another street. At this same instant the prisoner levelled the gun and fired in the direction his wife had taken, and the shots struck tho vi all of the houses close to her, hut the prosecutrix did not receive any ir.jury. After the prisoner had fired the gun, and while the bystanders were in the act.of securing him, he said I will shoot the I don't mind having a rope round my neck for it to-morrow morning." It was admitted that the prisoner was very drank -when all this occurred, and there appeared to be some doubt whether the gun was fired until after the prosecutrix had turned the corner of the street. Mr. Ribton, in his address to the jury, urged that the prisoner really had no intention to injure his wife, that the gun was only fired to frighten her, after she had turned the corner of the Btreet, and when she could not by any possibility have' received any injury.

The jury, after Borne deliberation, returned a verdiot uot guilty. Michael Malone, 21, a private in the 41st Regiment, was indicted for a robbery, with violence, upon Robert Bayley. Mr. G. Denman conducted the prosecution.

The prosecutor, it appeared, was a mariner, and, about a quarter past nine o'clock on the evening of the 12th of July, he was walking on the high road near Deal, when he met two soldiers, one of whom asked him what o'clock it was. He informed them, and was proceeding on his way, when one of the soldiers knocked him down by a violent blow with a stick, and they then both held him down and forcibly took away his watch, and then left him. The prosecutor was unable to identify either of his assailants, but it was proved that, on the 27th of August, the prisoner went to the shop of a pawnbroker, named Long, at Dover, and offered to pledge the watoh that had been stolen from the prosecutor. The pawnbroker declined to take the watch in pawn, and had it on a baok oounter while he went to another part of the shop, and the prisoner during his absence jumped over fte counter and seized the watch and ran out of the Bhop. He afterwards tried to sell the watch to another person, to whom he stated that it ad been given to him by a girl, who had received it is a keepsake from a marine who had gone to India.

The prisoner now repeated the story of the watch having been given to him by a girl, and he denied all knowledge of the robbery. The jury found the- prisoner guilty of receiving the. watch knowing it to have been stolen, and he was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment and hard labour. A lad, named Stephen Curio, was charged with a eapital offence. Mr.

Bai row, who appeared for the prosecution, laving briefly opened the case to the jury, and stated that the prisoner was charged with an unnatural offence, but he thought that probably the safer course would be to consider whether he ought not to be oonvicted of the attempt only, he proceeded to call the witnesses, Lut it appeared that none of them were in attendance. An application was upon this made to his lordship to let the caBe stand over till they arrived. Mr. Justice Willes said he had no power to adjourn the case after the prisoner had been gien in charge to the jury, except he ordered' the jury to be looked up and prevented from communicating with any one until the trial came on. Mr.

Barrow said that cases bad been postponed on former occasions under similar circumstances. Mr. justice-Willes said he was aware of that, but there were great doubts whether it was a legal proceeding. After waiting a short time, and no witnesses having made their appearance, His Lordship said that as there was no evidence to support the charge, he must direct the jury to acquit the prisoner. The jury accordingly returned a verdiot of not guilty.

Murdering a Sleeping Husband. The Court of Assizes of the Rhone two days baok tried a woman named Chavrier, of the Taobourg de Vaisse, at Lyons, aged 40 for the murder of her hu6bad, a man of 45. In the morning of the 10th August she sent to a relative of the man to say that he was grievously wounded and io danger of death the relative went to the house and found the man lvine dead on the floor, with dreadful wounds on his head. Th woman said that In the dead of night some persons whm she did not know pushed her husband headforemost into his house, saying, "Now, you are with your wife but that, though she saw he was covered with blood, she did not get up. and the next morning found him dead.

William Simpson, foreman to Messrs. Baker Brothers, leather manufacturers, Bermondsey, was finally examined, charged with stealing a vast quantity of manufactured leather, the property of his employers, and Xobert Anderson, a clog maker, of. 41, Kent-street, was charged with receiving the same, well knowing it to be stolen. Mr Cbipperfield, who appeared for the prosecution, informed his worship oharges against the prisoners were of a very serious nature, and a great deal of difficulty had been experienced to detect tiie depredations that bad for a long time-been. carried ou.

The prisoner Simpson held a confidential situation, and up to the time he was detected he was the last man his employers suspected of robbing him. The property ha he had stolen consisted of. patent leather, toe and heel pieces for clogs, which the other prisoner dealtin, and he should be able to show by Simpson confession, tliaUtie plunder had been carried on for a long time to a serious extent. He called Mr. William Baker, who said he was in.

partnership with his brother, and the prisoner Simpson, in whom they bnd explicit confidence, had been for a long time their foreman. For some time past be had missed goods of various descriptions, such as those produced, and from information he received he went with a constable to Anderson's house in Kent-street, and there saw a man purchasing some patent leather, toe caps and bee s. Witness, accompanied by his brother and the constable, entered the Bhop and seized the goods, which he tound had been stolen from their premises. Anderson was given into custody, when he said the goods were honestly come by, as ha had purchased them at Bakers, Sullivan's, and Seymour's, Anderson did not know either witness or his brother, bnt they told him "that he had never purchased any of the goods at their warehouse. Featherstone, 250 said he apprehended Simpson on Sunday morning, when they both went to Messrs.

Bakers, and then he acknowledged robbing his employers to a great extent, and begged for mercy. When he took Anderson into custody he said that he had purchased the goods at a fair price of Simpson, but he did not know that they were stolen. Mr. Baker said that Anderson had nt given two-thiids the value of the goods. Simpson acknowledged his guilt, but Anderjon pro-.
