I undone' his trousers, and put some fire in. He I would not wake up with that, so we left him alone for a bit, and then [ ran up to him and said, Tom Inker, you be afire.' That was all he said. -Prisoner said he had not seen the man for the last fortnight.—The Bench No, you have been in custody during that time. Prisoner?

John Pitman, took a mouth-organ out of his hand found next day that he was very much injured went straight out of the yard and told prisoner he would make him pay for it.— Cross-examined Prisoner did not take the cinders from his trousers they were not split before they were split, but he did not see anyone doing itknew Lloyd quite quite well; last time he saw him. was last Saturday week.-P.C. William Powell said he appre- hended the prisoner on Monday the 22nd -the Monday following the assault; prisoner said he "Did not do anything of it," but that Thomas Inker was lying down by the kiln. and the fire fell upon him he went to take it away, and Inker awoke his (the con- stable's) opinion was that it had been put through the pocket; he produced the trousers and shirt worn by the lad at the time.-Dr. Robert Cook said he saw the boy on Tuesday, the 23rd October he was suffering from extensive burns he had three over the left hip, about the size of balf-a-orown each there were also other burns-follr distinct ones in front, and two smaller ones there was another burn about three inches above the left ankle; they were very much inflamed, and he mniit have suffered very great pain the lad had been laid up ever since the wounds were healing, but were not well yet; they might have been produced by dropping hot cinders into his pocke: his opinion, on looking at the trou- sers, was, that the fire must have been put on the in- side. —The counsel for the defence admitted that the cinders might have been put in the lad's pocket, but submitted that there was no further statement what- ever that hi3 client had put them there besides, there were three of them all of them did it it was per- fectly clear that prosecutor was quite drunk.-so much so, that he bad undressed. The cindess had un- doubtedly fallen upon him. If the case should be sent for trial he was prepared to bring evidence of his client's innocence. He (prosecutor) said at shovel bad been used, but, according to the evidence,, there were no marks of violence on him. Had ha been rolled about, as he said, there would certainly have been marks upon him.

NEWPORT COUNTY COURT. Budd and Co. v. rmmanueL-The Newport County Court was held on Wednesday last, before his Honour J. M. Herbert, Esq. It was a pity that so much time was lost, owing to the solicitors not being present in I time. -The first case of any particular interest was that of Budd and Co. v. Immanuel.-Mr. Wyndham Pain appeared for the plaintiffs, shipbrokers, at New- port Mr. Parker (from Mr. Graham's office) appeared for the defendant, a doubler in the Redbrook Tin works. -This was an action brought to recover the sum of jE4, under the following circumstances. It appeared that in March last Trottier Freres, of Hennebont, re- quired some Englishmen for their tin works, and David Immanuel was engaged. He went to France some time in April, and whilst he was there Trottier Freres sent a letter to the plaintiffs authorising them to pay 100 francs to the defendant's wife. A telegram was sent countermanding the order in the letter, but, through a mistake, the plaintiffs paid the money. Trottier Freres refused to pay the plaintiffs the amount they had disbursed, on the ground that de- fendant left his work without giving proper notice. This was denied by the defendant. In the absence of sufficient proof as to the wages due to the defendant, his Honour non-suited the plaintiffs, and refused to allow the defendant his costs. Edwards v. Welstead.—This was a claim for £ 2 4s. 3d, the value of 59 pounds of beef. On the 8th of September, the plaintiff sold that quantity of beef to the defendant, both having etall" in the market. Defendant produced evidence to show that be had paid the money. On the other hand, Elizabeth Dumaine, who stands in the market for the plaintiff, said the money was not paid.

Mr. Llewellyn addressed his Honour with reference to an order made in the affairs of Mr. Job Thomas, a bankrupt, viz., that Mr. R. Graham deliver bills of :osta for taxation by the registrar. Mr. Graham had sent in three bills, amounting to f232 6s. 2ii. When !-be matter was formerly before his Honour, Mr. Graham stated that his costs amounted to £ 193> 1<9& 6d, ind that he offered to reduce the amount to j £ 180 to jet the bill settled. He (Mr. Llewellyn) now asked lis Honour to call upon Mr. Graham to render his )il)s of costs in accordance with the amount originally itated. His Honour refused the application, as he-did ]ot think he could bind Mr. Graham to the amolmt irst named.

CHRISTCHURCB SCHOOL BOARD. A meetisg of this Board was held on Tuesday after- noon, at Maindee, under the presidency of Mr. Ful- ford. All the members were present. The Clerk read a correspondence he had had with, the Education Department on the question whether one or two schools- shook) be built. The Departments had been furnished with all the information collected4 by the Board as- to the requirements of the district. and the Board had urged that one school, built on & point contiguous to Liswerry, would answer all the pnrposes of the district, and save a great deal of ex- pense. My Lords had replied that they had conferred with the Inspector, and consulted the map and census returns. After allowing that the 91 childreu in Caer- leon village could be accommodated in Caerleon, and making the uaual deùuctioOl, there were-atiM 200 chil- dren to be provided for in the Royal Oak and Liswerry districts j. and they considerad that the Board should provide two schools—one for 150 at Pontvane, and one j for 70 at the Royal Oak. Mr. Uoyd said it would. be better to ask for an in- terview with, the Inspector It seemed to him unwise to buiidtwo sohools> He moved a resolution to the effect that—" Looking st all the circumstances of the district,, the Board still believed that one effi- cient school would be sufficient for the requirements of the district, and asked whether an interview could be arranged between: this Boardiand Her Majesty's In- spector." Mr. Wilde seconded the motion, which was adopted. Mr. Lawrence,, of the firm-of Lawrence and Good- man, produced: a tracing, on a-reduced scale, of the map of the district, as ordered; by the Board. He also presented to each member a lithograph of the reduced ordnance map. The Board. requested him to send in his bill for the next meeting. Mr. Lloyd reported that, in. accordance with a re- quest of the-Board, Mr. Waters and himself waited upon Mr. Burnell Jones, relative to the hire of a room for the use of the Board. Mr. Jones offered to let the room at his disposal at £ 20 a> year, including rates and taxes, and also promised to get it in a fit state to be occupied. The meting approved of the situation, and the question was, mooted as to-whether the Local Board would join in the occupation, and divide the cost. Ordered that a letter be written to the Local Board, asking the members if they ware disposed to accede to a joint occupation of the proposed room. Until a reply is obtained the question of accepting the proposed terms was left in abeyance.. The Clark to the Board, of. Guardians, who acted as returning officer, sent ic/his bill of costs for conducting the election of this Board. It amounted to £ 40 6s. It included dE3 3s. for the abortive attempt to elect a SchooL Board two ysarsago. The returning officer's own fee was X15 158., and this was said to be the maximum charge allowed by law. Altogether the bill was aonsidered very heavy, and the Clerk was ordered to write and ask for. vouchers. A cheque for £5iwas signed, and ordered to be paid to )11'. IL Keen, for his services in taking the census of the district. The- Board said Mr. Keen did his work. well, and the particulars he obtained enabled the Board to answer all the inquiries of the Educatioui Department.

-0- THE NEWPORT POLICE AND THE BLACK BAG." SPECIAL MEETING OF THE TO COUNCIL. On Friday, the 2nd inst., a special meeting of th( Town Council was held to inquire into the alleged misconduct of certain members of the police force The Mayor (who was loudly applauded on taking hi: seat) presided, and there were present-Aldermer Lyne, Lewis, Murphy, H. J. Davis, and G. W. Jones Councillors W. West, H. A. Huzzey, J. Thompson, J. Rogers, D. A. Vanghan, O. Goss, J. R. Jacob, J. W. Jones, G. Hoskins, James Maddock, Wyndhair Jones, J. Moses, A. Blake, E. Griffiths, J. Gibbs, H P. Bolt, aud A. R. Bear. The Mayor called upon Superintendent Sinclair tc read-his report. The Superintendent then read his report, which was as follows Police Office, Newport, Mon 22nd October, 1877. To His Worship the Mayor. I have to report to you that Inspectors Curtis an] Wilcox have been making use of the constables of this force for conveying articles to Usk, for the use of one of the prisoners in the county gaol. On two occasions they sent parcels-one on the 13th September by P.C. Johu Widcombe, and on the 18th September one by P.C. Long- vil!e, who was ordered by Curtis to take it to a woman near the Usk bridge. This woman turns out to be the wife of one of the warders of the prison. These parcels were sent by the constables without my knowledge and without my authority. On the 9th March, 1877, I gave strict orders to all the sergeants and inspectors that no parcels, letters, or anything else were to be left in the police office for Mr Bt own, and that no one in the force was to be sent on messagjf for him or employed in his behalf in any way. From that date until the 17th inst. I had every reason to believe that the order was fully obeyed, and that none of the force identified, himself with Mr. Brown in any way. I submit to you the following statements P.C. Samuel Longville states "On the 18th Sept. last I took prisoners to Usk in a break along with P.C. Pym. Inspector Curtis gave me a parcel in the police office to take to Usk to a woman whose name I forget. He told me to inquire for her at the toli-gate. He said her house was near the Bridge. When I got to Usk the turnpike gatcman said he did not know a woman of that name. I took the parcel with me to the prison, and asked the officer on duty at the gaol door (Garnett) if he knew a woman of that name. He said Yes; she is one of our officer's wives." He told me where the house was. I went there with Pym, and gave her the parcel, and said it was sent by Inspector Curtis. She said "All right, thank you." It appealed to me to be bacon, aa the paper was get- ting greasy." (Then followed the deposition cf P.C. Pym corro- borating the above.) Sergt. Frankliu states "Some time ago a bag waa taken to Usk by one of the men. The bag was for Mr Brown. Widcombe brought tbe bag back from Usk, and left it in the police office. Same afternoon Inspector Curtis ordered me to take it So Miss Brown, who is staying at Dr. Morgan's." P.C. Widcombe states On the 5tfe of October 1 took prisoners to Usk, along with P.C, Coates. The Governor called me and asked me who- sent up the books. 1 said the Superintendent, as far as I know. I did not tell him that Wilcox gave them t»me. The Governor said I was to take back the boofes again to the Superintendent. 1 brought the bag with me, and left it in the police office. Told Franklin that I had brought it back on the 13th September last I took the same bag to Usis. Inspector Wilcox put it be- tween my two doors, and told me to t ike it to Usk. I gave the bag to the- Deputy-governor, and toM him it came from Newport." Inspector Wilcox's deposition then followed,, bear- ing out the above, and adding, I don't know what it was, or who it was for. Inspector Curtis states A man named Thccsas Richards brought the bag to the Town-hall in the morning, and ask-id me Jo send it up to the Governor by one of the men. Dr. Morgan came to the Town- hall one day and asked me to send it up to Usk, » some woman, who I understood wastt patieiJt of his." Sergt. Brooks states Some time ago a man came to the Town-hall and asked me if Inspector Curtis- was in. He said "Give bbis to him." He left parcel." P.C. Wm. Kear states: t went to Usk with P.C; Dimond on the 20th September last with prisoners. Before I left the police-office Inspector Wilcox told' me to ask if there was any communication from Mr James Brown to be brought back. I did inquire of the turnkey, and he called the Governor, who said he would not do it for the Queea. of England. I apolo- gised, and told him I hadordemto ask. The turnkey said be would call the Governor, but I don't know whether it was the Governor or Deputy-governor that. same." P.C. John Dimond bore out this statement. £ » answer to questions, the Superintendent said, alter what took place at the lasfr Quarter Sessions he wro- e to the Governor of Usk G aol, who said he could not give him the particulars then. Colonel Relph, Chairman of the Visiting Justices^, afterwards called upon. him, and gave him the particulars. The Mayor theu read two lefctew from Dr, Morgan. The first was dated 27th October, and was to the eOsot that having heard there was to be an enquiry, be wished to state that Miss Krowa requested him to have-a parcel, containing a piece of bacon, sent to Mra MScHale, Usk, and he asked Inspector Curtis if he would send it by the men who-took the prisoners to Usk.. He quite exonerated Curtis from any know- ledge ot its contents, and his iisptession and belief was that it was intended for too- person to whom it was addressed. The other letter was somewhat to the same purport, and offering rr. fslier explanation if desired to do so. He had no Älea he was going to harm any policeman, and now he had much pleasure in "making an honest sin clear" )8in.elair). (Laugh- ter. After some conversation, the Superintendent was asked whether he had received any formal complaint from, the Visiting Justices. He said the Chairman I (Colonel Relph) had spoken to hiaa. Aiderman Lyne asked if Col. Relph said he be- lievod that the force were Implic&ted." The Superintendent Yes, most (decidedly. it was. then determined to bet* the statements of the officers. BrC. Longville, on being called; said I took the poisoners to Usk on the 18th of September. Inspec- tors-Curtis and Wilcox were in the police office when f 1 was there. Inspector Curtis said, Here is a parcel fsr. you to carry to Usk to a person of tbe name of Mrs M'Hale, living by the bridge"" Only the name was-on the address. I inquired at the turnpike gate, but no one there knew any percoa of that name. I touk. the parcel to the prison, a:1d asked Garnett if he j knew a. woman of that name, aud he said, Yes, she-, is.the daughter of old Dick Lucas, one of our turn-j key's wives." A little boy showed him the house, and he told the woman it was from.LtMpector Curtis. Thers- appeared to be stains of bacon- showing through the paper. Had been seven years-in the force, and never before carried a parcel to Usk. Had no idea that its was for anyone in prison. P.C. Pym simply confirmeisthe foregoing. P. S. Franklin said he saw. a bag in the station o-i, the table did not know who- brought it there. The bag was next day taken down by Wideombe. Inspector Curtis asked if a bag had baen left there for him, and he said yes. Then Curtis. said that a man uacaedi Richards had left it for Mr Brown. Two or three weeks afterwards the bag; was brought back in the same condition, and he took it to Dr. Morgan's- for. Miss Brown. P.C. John Widcombe was then called, and stated that Inspector Wilcox had given him a black bag to- take to Usk Caol, but. did not say for whom. He gave it to the Deputy-governor, who said tit's, all right." Ou the 5th ost October he was told to take it back where he had it [;>om, and he did so. P.C. Kear then bore out what he had said, ia his depositions, viz., thjifc he went to Usk with, DLmond, and that he had asked the turnkey whether there was a message from ilr James Brown. The turnkey called the Deputy-governor, and he said that "he would not comnjAtnicate anything out ot the prison walls-not for the Queen of England." Sergeant Brocks said that Thomas Ri&kards, of the Dos Works, brought a parcel to the station for Inspector Curtis, about the close of August, cr beginning of September. Inspector Wilcox stated that on thlt 13th of Septem- I ber, Inspector Curtis asked him if anyone was going to Usk ns-xt morning, and ho said Widcombe was going. Curtis then gave him a bag to send to Usk, and he requested Widcome to, take it there. When Widcombe came back he asked him to whom he gave the bag, and he said the Deputy-governor took it, and said It's all right, I know what it is." A few days later Inspector Curtis gave him a parcel to be sent to Usk, to be delivered at a house near the bridge. There was a name on the parcel. It was a small parcel. Never mentioned the name of James Brown to P.C. Kear if Kear had said he did, be bad stated a false- hood told Kear to ask the Governor if there was any message the message he meant was the bag. In- spector Curtis never mentioned to him that things were being sent to Mr. James Brown did not think that the bag belonged to the Governor. P.C. Dimond corroborated P.C. Kear's version of the affair, and P.C. Kear, on being re-called, repeated his former statement. Inspector Wilcox, however, persisted in fc&yiflg that Mr, Brows WM never spoken of. Inspector Curtis, on being called, said that he would tell them all about it. On or about the 12th oi September, Thomas Richards, of the Factory, came to him and asked him if he would send that bac down to the Governor of the gaol, for Mr. Brown—Mr. James Brown. He asked "What does the bag con- tain ?" and Richards said, two scrap-books. He asked him what authority he had to send them he said "His daughter has a letter from him, with the stamp of the Governor, allowing these scrap-boeks to go." He took the bag into the office, and opened it to see what it contained, and he found a large scrap-book full of newspaper cuttings, and another new book, and a letter, if not two, addressed to Colonel Milman, from Miss Brown. That bag he handed to Inspector Wilcox to send up to the Governor of the gaol. Some days after that he saw the bag in the office, and he sent Franklin to ask Miss Brown what he was to do with it. He knew that it was wrong to send things without the knowledge of the Superinten- dent, but it had been done for years. [The letter sent from Mr Brown to his daughter asking for these books, was then read. It was on the prison paper, with printed heading, and stamped by the Governor, asking her to send them, as he wished to index the newspaper cuttings.] The Visiting Justices would not sanction the giving of those books to the prisoner, so they were returned. Respecting the parcel said to contain bacon, witness said that on the 17th of Sep- tember, Dr. Morgan asked him to send a small parcel to Usk, to be left at the house near the bridge. He sent it because he never doubted the authority of a Justice of the Peace. Since this matter had been talked about he had asked Dr. Morgan to write to the Mayor and Corporation to exonerate him, and he supposed Dr. Morgan had done so. Did not know anything about any other than the two parcels mentioned. Would certainly not have done so for anyone besides a magistrate. Took the first parcel from Richards be- cause he beliererd him to be a respectable man. He bad no idea who Mrs M'Hale was, and he had never heard ot her be!ore. This concluded the evidence. Alderman Davis was of opinion that the matter had been satisfactorily cleared up in reference to the bag" taken to the prison. Then as to the other parcel sent by a magistrate of the borough, it was evidently not known to the police that it was going to anyone con- nected with the gaol. There was a discrepancy between Inspector Wilcox and one of the two constables. He was not going to impute anything respecting it. One or the other might have forgotten what was actually c-aid. He considered that Inspector Wilcox had cleared himself, but that such matters should have been made known to the Superinteudeat. They ought on ail occasions to do so. (Cheers.) Mr West endorsed Alderman Davis's remarks, and said that it was very desirable to have a proper under- standing to whom the force should look. He wished something should be put on record. Alderman Jones said it seemed to have been customary to take parcels t., and fror and that had led to this. One of the parcels was for a former nurse of Miss Brown. There was no proof that it had ever gone further than this woman's house, and he hoped she had enjbyed the bacon for her breakfast. He pro- posed the following resolution be put on record That no wJlful breach of discipline bad been proved, but that in future no parcels or papers be- taken to Usk by the police without the knowledge or consent of the Superintendent." Mr West seconded this, and it was carried unani- mously. This terminated the business.

MANSLAUGHTER AT MERTHYR. Benjamin Evans, collier, was indioted on a charge of feloniously killing and slaying one Griffith Evans (his father), at Merthyr, on the 28th ult. Mr B. F. Williams and Mr Bensou appeared for the prosecution. The prisoner, who WM Undefended; pleaded not guilty. j LA I Mr Williams, in opening the case, stated that the f prisoner was indicted for the manslaughter of his 0 father. The deceased lived in the neighbourhood of 1 Merthyr, and the prisoner was a collier working at Ferndale, in the Rhondda Valley. On October 27 (Sunday) the prisoner went to Merthyr to spend the day at his father's house. The prisoner and his father the latter about (;9 years of age, started from the 5 house about 10 o'clock. About six years before thia occurrence the old man had suffered from a rupture, e but on the Sunday morning when be left the house he appeared to be in good health. About two o'clock they went into a house called the Mount Pleasant I Inn, and remained there for half-an-hour or more. > They drank two quarts of beer at the public-house," 2 but neither of them could be said to be drunk al- though they had taken more, perhaps, than was good t for them. They were on the most friendly terms when they left the Mount Pleasant Inrsf and were next seen by a woman who stated that the old man could > not walk very well. She asked the prisoner t6 assist his father, but the latter appeared to be unwilling to accept the proffered aid. She saw the father fall on his face, and as soon as he got up he fell down on hia back. That witness afterwards saw them sitting togetner in a ditch. Another witness would tell the jury that the prisoner quarrelled with his father, and that he kicked him five times on the bowels. She aiso saw the prisoner kick his father on the back, and he lifted him up, took hold of his head, and struck ib against the ground with some violence. The witness then saw five men come up, some of whom he would call before the jury, and they would say that they heard the prisoner -^nd his father quarrelling and the old man said, \Vi:t nobody come and save °my life ?" or words to that effect. One of the men said that the prisoner made use of some expression, and searched his pocket for a knife, lrot could not find one. Some of the men assisted the old man to rise, and it was found that he was unable to walk. They sent for a horse and cart, and took the deceased home. On the following morning he was abie to get downstairs, but he complained of his bowels being painful, and gradu. ally got worse until Monday night, when he died. A post mortem examination of the body was made three days after, but the body was then in such a state of decomposition that it was almost impossible to find what outward marks of violence there were upon it. He had, however, been told that the body had been examined before the post mortem, examination, and that there were marks of violence upon it. There was a cut on the back of the head, bat, according to medical testimony, that did not cause death. Death was P.O-t attributed to the actual violence inflicted npon the old man in the struggle, but, in the judgment of the medical practitioner, it accelerated death. A number of witnesses were then called, and corro- borated the statement made by Mr Williams. The prisoner said nothing in self-defence, aad The learned Commissioner then proceeded to address the jury. He stated that it was a great pity that medical assistance had not been procured when the deceased was takeu home, as probably it would have saved his life. The jury retired, and after an absence of 25rainutes they returned into Court with a verdict of guilty,. but they recommended the prisoner to mercy. The Commissioner staied that the sentence he was about to pass might appear light, but be was of opinion that the evidence given by some of the witnesMS- in reference to the vi dence of the blows struck by the prisoner was exaggerated, and, taking into considera- c -1 9 tion the jury's recommendation to mercy, he would sentence the prisoner to 13 mouths' imprisonment with hard labour. BEADED GUILTY. Maria Nash, 34, widow, who pleaded guilty to iii charge of endeavouring to conceal the birth of her child at Begelly, about the 28th of July, was sen- tenced to three months' imprisonment. CONCEALMENT OF BIRTH AT LLANELLY. Ana Barry, IS, worker at tin works, Briton Ferry,. was indicted on a charge of concealing the birth of her child at Llanelly, on July 19. The jury found the prisoner guilty, and she was sentenced to two months-' imprisonment, she having: been in gaol three months already. This concluded the business of the Assize.

GREAT FIllB AT CARDIFF. A little before S2.'o'olock on Monday night, a great fire broke out on the extensile premises of Mr C. Howell, known as the Red Houee, where Mr. Howell carries on the unitsd businesses of grocer and spirit merchant. The fire is said to ha^e originated in the stores of the wine and spirit premises, but it cannot be said with certainty that this was-the case. Before the arrival of the engines,,though Superintendent Heming. way and his men were prompt in Jsheir attendance, the principal portion of the building, viz., that in which the wines, spirits, &c.r were stored, were found to be wrapped in one mass-of> flame, ami tbe wind, blowing right into the face of the building, soon drove the flames through into. the back. part of the premises. By about 25 minutes-to one a large supply of water had been brought ta-bear upon tbe-Uames, but it was evident that no effort could save the effects of the priucipal building, which was gutted in au incredibly short space of time. The efforts-of: the firemen were, therefore, first directed .to the smaller shops and the private building, tc,, which the fire was beginning to extend. At the same time anotber-boee was laid down behind the buildiug,,but no force: el water could be obtained therefrom^.and the fire iu eoosequence made very rapid progress rearwards, whilst the flames from the front shot up with immeuse fury and brilliancy, vividly illuminating, the whole neighbourhood, and throwing their lurid glare over ths-to-wn. An immense eoncourse of persons-was saon attracted to the spot from all parts of the town. TherfMJjway, being a good vantage point, was thickly lined with.spectators. Not. withstanding that,.from the nature of the materials the fire had to feet, sipon, but smalLeffeet was produced by the water whichiwas thrown i;pou it, yet the fire brigade and police worked with a good will, and often exposed themselves to great dagger, Superintendent Hemmingway setting them an excellent example. By the aid of some ciVthe neighbours, a large quantity of property was saved,) amongst whieh were two traps, a great many sacks, of flour, furciture, stock-in-trade, nxtnres, &c. The fire was prevf-atad extending beyond Mr Howell's premises, but the greater part of these were destroyed, us well as the principal portion of their contents. The shop, in particular, was reduced to a mere skeleton, nothing but the bare walls, which were fortunately thickly buil-ti of brick, remaining. Seeing the sparks that contiuucil.y flew up from the burning premises, it was stranga-that other buildings, especially thosa at the back, (lil not take fire. The efforts of the police and the lue- brigade, after some two hours, completely subdued;the fire, or it may more properly be said that it had by that time burnt itself nearly out. ^Uie loss sustained cannot be less than *3,000. We believe Mr h';i>vyell ia insured. Mr- Howell and hw wife were awaj; at Bath, aud the busi- ness was lef^un charge of the sou3.
