| 2 August 1850, Friday WRESTLING. On Monday and Tuesday last, the days appointed for the play at Hayle, the weather was remarkably fine, and a great number of people collected, it is estimated to the number of four thousand. Sixty-six standards were made. LONG, of Gwennap, and ROBERTS, of Ludgvan, played one hour and twenty-five minutes, when the toss was in favour of Long. Edward DELBRIDGE of Gwennap, and BERRIMAN played half-an-hour, when Delbridge was thrown. FORD of Phillack, a fine man, and TREGLAWN, of Ludgvan, played half-an-hour, and it ended by FORD being thrown in first-rate style. The WILLIAMS's (six brothers) all made a find display. The award of prizes was follows:- first prize, Wm. TREGLAWN, �4; second ditto, Stephen WILLIAMS, �2; third ditto, John WILLIAMS, �1; forth ditto, Matthew TREGLAWN. JEFFERY, of Ludgvan, threw Wm. PENHALE, of Gwinear, a fine fall, but it was discovered they had previously agreed, and consequently they were excluded from any participation in the prizes. We understand that a grand wrestling match will come off at Penzance about the end of August, the prizes to be liberal, and the whole to be under the management of respectable parties. It is said that several London gentlemen have contributed to the funds, and will be present on the occasion. It will be seen by advertisement, that a wrestling match will take place at Ashburton, on Tuesday next, between the men of Cornwall and Devon, for �50 and a champion belt. A wrestling match came off at Torquay, on Friday evening the 11th ult., between Mr. C. HEATH, of Devon, and Mr. R. CORNISH of Cornwall. The prize contended for was the championship and a handsome belt, fastened with a diamond stud, value fifty guineas. After twenty minutes sharp play, the Cornishman was thrown a fair back - after a rest of half-an-hour, they went at it again, but the Cornishman was so sorely kicked that he gave in, and the Devonshireman carried off the prize. It will be seen by an advertisement in another column that Thomas GUNDRY, the Cornish champion, offers to wrestle with any man in England, (the best of two falls out of three) for fifty pounds. LIGHTHOUSES - Mr DOUGLAS, an engineer employed by the Trinity Board, has made considerable progress in erecting a lighthouse on Bishop rock, near Scilly. The sea that sometimes runs there is tremendous, and the structure will be composed of stone in preference to iron. The Trinity cutter on the Scilly station has arrived in Mount's Bay, with Mr Douglas on board, who will at once proceed to erect beacons there on the rocks called "the Raymond" and "the Cressers." FALMOUTH. - On Sunday morning last, H.M. sailing packet "Linnet", Lieut. JAMES, R.N., commander, arrived from brazil with mails and twenty-three passengers, having also on freight a small quantity of money. Business at Rio and Bahia was exceedingly dull, and things were but slowly recovering the effects of the fever. The country dealers were afraid to come in to make purchases, yet the sickness had almost disappeared on shore, though there had been some bad cases at each place amongst the shipping. At Pernambuco business had resumed its usual activity, the fever having quite subsided. SMUGGLING. - On Monday last, Mr William MICHAEL, late master of the barque "Esther Frances," from Havannah, was charged before the mayor of Falmouth and Lieut. HILL and Mr ROGERS, justices, with having smuggled eleven and three quarters pounds of cigars in ten boxes. This was the man who (as was stated last week) was charged with attempting to poison his crew, but against whom the evidence was altogether incomplete on that charge, which was therefore dismissed by the magistrates. On the present occasion Mr TILLY appeared for the Board of Customs, and Mr GENN for the defendant. It appeared that the information that there were smuggled cigars on board, was given to BENNETTS, the constable, by the mate of the vessel, Robert DUNNAPACE. The witnesses examined in support of the charge were John SEDGEMEND, an extra man of the customs at Falmouth, E. Bennetts, constable, Robert Dunnapace, mate of the vessel, an apprentice on board called CLARKE, Mr HURST, tide-surveyor, Mr. SHELLEY, collector of customs, and a daughter of the constable. Mr. Genn cross-examined the witnesses, but the Bench considered the case proved, and fined the defendant �100, or in default six month' imprisonment. The fine not being paid, the defendant was confined in the borough goal. On Tuesday last, Mr. E. Bennetts, constable, was summoned for obstructing a person in the preventive service, when discharging his duty. The matter arose out of the proceedings in the trial, against the captain of the "Esther Francis". THE HIGH SHERIFF'S TROOP. At the close of the business of the Assizes on Saturday last, Mr. DAUBUZ, of Killiow, the High Sheriff of Cornwall, gave a dinner to the captain, officers, and trumpeters of the troop, at Frampton's King's Arms, Bodmin, which was served in the host's well known good style. Mr John BREWER was in the chair, and Mr. James DEACON, captain of the Sheriff's troop, acted as vice. After the guests had done ample justice to the good things provided, and the cloth had been removed, the usual loyal toasts were drunk with musical honors, followed by those of the High Sheriff and Mrs. Daubuz, the under-Sheriff, County Clerk, and also of Mr. ROBERTS, the partner in profession with the Under-Sheriff; also the health of the president and vice, with those of the several officers who have filled their posts for many years. The next toast was proposed an received with acclamation, the health of an old and respected friend with whom many present had acted during various sheriffalties, Mr. BOTTRALL, with three times three. The party spent the evening in pleasant conviviality and separated highly pleased with the generosity of the Sheriff. PENZANCE QUARTER SESSIONS. These sessions were held on Wednesday the 14th ult., by Mr COLLIER, Recorder, and the Mayor and Magistrates of the borough. Jacob LAWRY was found guilty of stealing a bird-cage, the property of James SCOTT, and was sentenced to two months' hard labour. Jane BORLASE was found guilty of stealing two cashmere shawls, on the 20th of April, the property of her master, Mr. R. RICHARDS, draper. The jury recommended the prisoner to mercy on account of previous good character. Sentence, six months' hard labour. THE "QUEEN" STEAMER. Captain David MITCHELL, who was severely scalded when the "Queen" steamer was blown up at Devonport, lingered on in excruciating pain until the 23rd ult., when death put an end to his sufferings. He was brought home to Calstock, and interred on the 24th ult. MINE ACCIDENT. On Thursday the 25th ultimo, as three men were at work under ground in Wheal Uny mine, near Redruth, whilst they were attempting to place a piece of timber to support a very dangerous scale of ground, about three tons of stuff and rocks fell away. One man escaped without injury, a second was slightly bruised, but the third, Capt. Samuel COAD, late of Constantine, sustained a severe injury. On taking him to the surface he was quite unable to stand. In this state, he was carried in a cart to his lodgings at Redruth. The injuries were attended to by Mr HARRIS, and the patient is doing as well as can be expected. EMIGRATION - The "Good Intent," WARBURTON, master, arrived at Fowey on the 26th of July, after a pleasant passage of thirty-five days. She sails again for Quebec with emigrants on the 13th of August. WRESTING - I, THOMAS GUNDRY, of the parish of Sithney, having heard many reports tending to injure my character as a wrestler, HEREBY GIVE NOTICE that I am prepared to meet any Man in England for the sum of FIFTY SOVEREIGNS, to be decided by the first two falls out of three (signed) THOMAS GUNDRY, July 29, 1850. TRIAL OF PRISONERS - THOMAS SEYMOUR, 21, pleaded Guilty of stealing on the 23rd of July, at the parish of Kenwyn, from the person of Stephen TIPPET, one silk handkerchief, the property of the said Stephen Tippet. Sentence - Eight Months' Hard Labour. JAMES ARMOUR, 33, pleaded Guilty of stealing on the 2nd of July, at Gwennap, a jacket, the property of James TREGONING: and was sentenced to Four Months' Hard Labour. GEORGE PASCOE, aged 33, pleased Guilty, on two indictments, of stealing a pair of boots, the property of George EDWARDS: and two bundles of straw, the property of Henry PELLOW, at the parish of Mawnan. Sentence, Two Months' Hard Labour for the first offence, and One Month for the second. RICHARD BARTLETT, the younger, 26; STEPHEN HUDDY, 30; and JAMES ATKINS, 26, were charged with having stolen on the 2nd of July last, at the parish of St Clement, three grates, the property of George SIMMONS the younger, and Thomas WHITFORD, executors under the will of Edmund TURNER, Esq., deceased. Bartlett pleaded Guilty; but Mr COLERIDGE had been retained for him, and in the course of the trial elicited some evidence in his favour as to his character for honesty, though he had bee, for a year or two, drinking, idle, and wild. The other prisoners were undefended. Mr COLE conducted the prosecution. Richard BRAY stated that he occupied land at Trennick and had had the care of the dwelling-house (which was unoccupied) since February last, by direction of Mr. SIMMONS. On Sunday evening, the 30th of June, he saw the premises safe. On the following Tuesday, he found that one of the windows, which had been battened up, was broken out, and that four grates had been removed from their places, three of which had been taken off the premises; the fourth, which was broken in taking out, was left behind. Some lead was also stolen from the under part of a pump in the farm yard. Nathaniel GATLEY, a lad working at Trennick about one o'clock on Monday, the 1st of July, saw Bartlett and Huddy going towards Trennick carrying a bag; and about five o'clock the same afternoon, saw all three prisoners about a quarter of a mile from Trennick in the direction from that place towards Truro; they had three grates in a wheelbarrow; the grates were not covered over, and he believed one of them was the same as was now produced in court. They had no bag with them at that time. Thomas WROATH, whitesmith at Truro, stated that on the 1st of July, Bartlett and Atkins came to his shop with some old grates, which Bartlett asked him to buy; Bartlett asked 7s. 6d. for them, but witness bought them for 5s. Witness asked where they got the grates; and Bartlett answered that they belonged to a man who had no further use for them and, and he wanted to turn them into money. William WOOLCOCK, a policeman, produced the grates, which he received of Wroath on the 4th of July. They were identified by Mr Bray; and Mr George Simmons, solicitor, proved that they were the property of himself and Mr. Whitford, as executors of the late Mr. Turner. The jury found both Huddy and Atkins Guilty. Another indictment against all three prisoners for stealing the lead referred to, was not pressed. Mr Simmons thought it right to inform the court that Mr Bartlett's parents are honest and respectable people. Six Months Hard Labour each. WILLIAM GIBSON, 21, pleased Guilty of having on the 3rd of May, at the parish of Launcells, maliciously and feloniously set fire to a stack of hay, the property of William SANDREY. Sentence deferred. (Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) Saturday, July 27. WILLIAM GIBSON, 21, who had pleaded Guilty of having, on the 3rd of May, set fire to a stack of hay, the property of William SANDREY, in the parish of Launcells, was brought up to receive sentence. The learned Judge impressively addressed the prisoner, pointing out the enormity of his offence. He did not know that this county had been much disgraced by crimes of this kind; but when incendiarism gets into a county, it generally spreads like an infectious disease; therefore crimes of this description must be put down at once, - people must be made to know that such offences cannot be committed without exposing the criminal to severe punishment. After then representing the hardships attending transportation as a punishment, the learned Judge sentenced the prisoner to be TRANSPORTED FOR TEN YEARS. ROBERT HOOD, otherwise HOWARD, 61, was indicted for feloniously ravinshing Elizabeth Ann WARMINGTON, at Penryn, on the 28th of May last. The offence was clearly proved. Sentence, TWENTY YEARS' TRANSPORTATION. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. - THOMAS BAKER the younger, was indicted and also charged on the Coroner's inquisition, with killing and slaying WILLIAM COLES. Mr COLE for the prosecution, and Mr. COLLIER for the prisoner. The Witnesses called for the prosecution were W. UGLOW, farmer at Week St Mary, W. SPRY, W. FRY, MR TOOKE, surgeon, and a woman called VEAL. It appeared that on the 27th of last May (being fair day at Week St. Mary) a number of persons were drinking at the New Inn, in that place. Prisoner and the deceased man Coles were amongst the number both being somewhat intoxicated, the prisoner particularly so. Prisoner was very quarrelsome and challenging others to fight. Deceased was sitting in the kitchen in a very quiet manner. Prisoner at first seemed friendly with deceased, but afterwards in his drunkenness he wanted him to fight, asking deceased if he were a man for him? Coles said, "yes, I don't care for you, or all the Bakers in the parish." Coles, however, did not get up to fight, but continued sitting quietly on his chair. Prisoner asked, "shall I strike you?" and Coles said," you may if you like." Prisoner then struck him once or twice, not very hard, as the blow did not knock him off the chair; prisoner continued sitting there, but presently fell off bleeding at the mouth, and was a dead man from an attack of apoplexy. The counsel for the prosecution represented that one of the blows was struck on the jugular vein, and was the cause of death; that if the man was pre-disposed to apoplexy its attack was hastened by the blow, and the prisoner was guilty of manslaughter. On the other hand, counsel for the prisoner argued that deceased being constitutionally disposed to apoplexy, had increased the danger of its coming on by drinking to excess, at a time when by an unfortunate occurrence he received a slight blow, which, however, had nothing to do with his death, because he would have died at that time and in that way if no blow had been given. There was considerable difference between the witnesses as to the part of the body on which deceased received the blow. The surgical evidence having been given, the learned Judge told the jury that unless they were clearly of opinion that the blow had something to do with the death of the deceased, they must acquit the prisoner of the charge of manslaughter, but they might find him guilty of assault. Verdict, GUILTY OF ASSAULT. Sentence, THREE MONTHS' HARD LABOUR. GEORGE SMITH, 27, was indicted for obtaining from LUKE WARNE MITCHELL, at thimble-rig, a sovereign and half sovereign; another count charged him with obtaining the same under false pretences; and a third count charged the conspiring with another person to obtain the money. A similar indictment was laid against the prisoner for obtaining money from Edward Dunstone. It was stated that the prisoner was apprehended and with two other confederates was to have been tried at the last summer assizes. Prisoner, however, escaped from custody before his trial; the others were tried, and acquitted on account of a flaw in the indictment. Prisoner was now found Guilty, and sentenced to be TRANSPORTED FOR SEVEN YEARS. THE "QUEEN" STEAMER. - Captain David MITCHELL, who was severely scalded when the "Queen" steamer was blown up at Devonport, lingered on in excruciating pain until the 23rd ult., when death put an end to his sufferings. He was brought home to Calstock, and interred on the 24th ult. MINE ACCIDENT. - On Thursday the 25th ultimo, as three men were at work under ground in Wheal Uny mine, near Redruth, whilst they were attempting to place a piece of timber to support a very dangerous scale of ground, about three tons of stuff and rocks fell away. One man escaped without injury, a second was slightly bruised, but the third, Capt. Samuel COAD, late of Constantine, sustained a severe injury. On taking him to the surface he was quite unable to stand. In this state, he was carried in a cart to his lodgings at Redruth. The injuries were attended to by Mr HARRIS, and the patient is doing as well as can be expected. EMIGRATION - The "Good Intent," WARBURTON, master, arrived at Fowey on the 26th of July, after a pleasant passage of thirty-five days. She sails again for Quebec with emigrants on the 13th of August. 9 AUGUST 1850, Friday EMIGRATION TO QUEBEC. - The barque "GOOD INTENT," John Warburton, Master, now discharging at Fowey, will sail with Emigrants (wind and weather permitting) on the 13th of August. This well-known ship, which possesses such superior accommodations and which gave such satisfaction to those who sailed in her the spring voyage, is recommended to the attention of those now intending to emigrate. The passage money will be as low as other ships sailing from any of the channel ports, and the passengers will be proved with water and provisions according to the Act. An early application is requested to be made to Mr. JOSEPH DREW, Post Office, St Austell; Mr. WM. HICKS, Merchant, Fowey; Mr SAMUEL ALLEN, Mevagissey; Mr H. DREW, Stationer, Bodmin; Mr. CHANNON, Innkeeper, Liskeard; Mr HENRY TRESTRAIL, Looe; or Mr HENRY COUCHE, Licensed Emigration Agent, Fowey. St Austell, July 16, 1850. TRURO TOWN COUNCIL. - A vacancy in this council having been caused by the lamented death of Mr. STEVENS, we understand the Mr. STOKES has offered himself to the municipal electors with every prospect of success. FREEMASONRY. We understand that the Fund of Benevolence of the United Grand Lodge of England, has voted the sum of ten guineas to Mrs. ANN DADDO, of Truro, the widow of STEPHEN DADDO, serjeant in the Royal Miners' Militia, who died very suddenly last year from an attack of Asiatic cholera. Serjeant Daddo was one of the oldest and most deserving and respected masons in the county, he having been a member for a great number of years of the lodge belonging to his regiment, and subsequently of the lodge "Fortitude," of Truro, No. 153. THE NAVY. Lieut Granville R. MOYLE, R.N. has been appointed to H.M.S. "Trafalgar" 120 guns, at Sheerness. CURE BY LIGHTNING. Some years since as Mr. MARTYN of Lanteglos by Fowey, was writing in his house during the prevalence of lightning, he felt himself suddenly struck a violent blow on the right arm above the elbow. For a long period before this he had been a great sufferer from rheumatic pains in the precise locality of the blow, but from that time to the present he has had no return of the malady, an electric shock having rid him of his pains. From this fact it may be supposed that many forms of disease may be alleviated or removed by the employment of artificial electricity, in the form of galvanism. ROBBING GARDENS. This offence is of frequent occurrence at St Austell. On Saturday night last, or early on Sunday morning, some thief or thieves broke into Mr. SWAFFIELD'S garden and did considerable damage, besides robbing it of apples, onions, and a choice selection of gooseberries, which were intended to be taken to the Horticultural meeting on Tuesday. COMMITTAL. At Saltash Town Hall, on Monday last, before Mr. HUTCHISON, mayor, George COCK, was charged with stealing a quantity of rope from H.M.S. "Octavis," the property of her Majesty. Mr. EASTLAKE, solicitor for the Admiralty, prosecuted. The case being proved, the prisoner was committed to the next Assizes for the county of Cornwall. The mayor told the prisoner that he would take bail for his appearance, himself in �40, and two sureties in �20 each, which would save him a long imprisonment. The following inquest has been hold before Mr. Gilbert HAMLEY, deputy coroner:- On Thursday the 1st instant, at the Three Gun Battery, Fowey, on the body of Sergeant John LEE, aged 78. On the evening before, whilst standing in his house, he was talking with a female, who on the inquest described him as suddenly "sliding" to the floor, and before he could be conveyed to his bed, was quite dead. There was no previous indisposition. Verdict, "died by the visitation of God." TO WORKING ENGINEERS AND BOILER MAKERS. - Wanted to go to Australia, a Man capable of erecting a Steam Engine; also a Boiler Maker, after erected they must work here. Testimonials as to character and ability to be sent to Mr. John HODGE, Iron Founder, St Austell. They must also state the amount they expect per month, and they must leave with the Engine in about three weeks. August 7, 1850. 16 AUGUST 1850, Friday CORNWALL COUNTY COURT. This Court was held at Truro on Friday last, when there were fifty cases entered, and four adjourned cases. Among the adjourned cases was one in which Abraham and Stephen AWLEY COCK sued William COBBELDICK, as executor of his father-in-law, the late Joseph Cock, of St Clement Street, Truro, for �8 7s. 2d., balance of account. Mr. CHILCOTT appeared for plaintiffs; and Mr PAULL for defendant. The court after hearing evidence and arguments at considerable length, gave judgment for plaintiffs. After disposing of several cases in which a linen draper, named Alexander STEVENSON was plaintiff, the court proceeded to adjudge a claim by Thomas Edward REMFRY, lime burner, of Tabernacle Street, Truro, against Sir Charles LEMON, Bart. Mr. STOKES appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. WHITFORD for defendant. The claim was for �5, to which Mr. Remfry, a tenant of St Charles Lemon's, claimed to be entitled for having endeavoured to prevent persons depositing rubbish on the Lemon Quay. Mr. Remfry grounded his claim on some correspondence with Messrs. PAYNTER and WHITFORD, Sir Charles Lemon' s stewards. On being examined, he stated that he occupied premises near Lemon Quay, and that goods and rubbish were placed on that quay by persons who were not entitled to do so, to the inconvenience of himself and other tenants of St Charles Lemon's. In September, 1836, the following letter, addressed to his father, was placed in his hands to act upon:- Truro, 20th September, 1836. SIR, Several persons are in the habit of depositing rubbish on Sir Charles Lemon's quay at Truro, to the detriment of those who are entitled to land goods there. We shall feel obliged by your giving such persons notice to desist from doing so in future, and if after such notice they persist in doing so, we shall be obliged to take steps against them. We are, Sir, Your obedient servants, Mr. T. G. Remfry, Truro. Paynter & Whitford. In consequence of that letter, he in the following years, performed services, of which he now produced an account, in the prevention and in ordering the removal of obstructions on the Quay. He had never been paid anything; and, until November last, never made any claim, because he thought he might be appoint Reeve. In November, having to take up a lease, he brought this claim as a set-off, and was surprised that Mr. Whitford objected to it. The present claim of �5 was for five years' service. On cross-examination by Mr. Whitford, Mr. Remfry admitted that he had frequently seen Mr. Whitford in Truro, but that he had never suggested that any thing was due to him from Sir C. Lemon. He also stated that he had never been called on, except by letter, from Messrs. Paynter and Whitford, to order the removal of rubbish; but he contended that he had been authorised and had acted as an agent, and not merely as one of Sir Charles Lemon's tenants. The following additional correspondence was then produced; Tabernacle Street, Truro, 16th Dec., 1841. GENTLEMEN, Begging pardon for any intrusion upon your numerous engagements, I venture again to invite your attention to some small encroachments which are now being made on Lemon Quay, and which (if not checked) will prove injurious to the surface of the quay, and detrimental to the tenant's privilege. For some time past, lighter-loads of river sand, spar-stone, &c., have been successively landed, on the part of the quay which opens in a line with Tabernacle-street, and from thence to Mr. HILL's frontage, such being consigned to persons not being tenants, or detained by the lightermen for convenience of sale. A lighter-load of sand was discharged in the evening of Monday last, by Samuel HUSSON and John TREBELLS, (after I as a tenant had demurred and denied their doing so.) I was obliged on Tuesday to remove some part of it before I could land my limestone; and this evening about two cart-loads still remain there. I am, Gentlemen, Your humble obedient servant. THOS. EDWARD REMFRY. Messrs. Paynter and Whitford, Solicitors, St Columb. St. Columb, 17th Dec., 1841. SIR, Sir Charles Lemon's quay at Truro is for the use of his tenants only, and no others have any right to land either sand or any other commodity on it, and we shall be obliged by your giving Husson and Trebells notice to remove what may be remaining of that which they brought there, and give them notice that in future they are to land nothing on the quay unless it be for any of Sir Charles's tenants. We are Sir, Your obedient servants, PAYNTER AND WHITFORD. Mr Whitford, to the Court, contended that the employment of the defendant was merely as one of the tenants, and not as an agent entitled to any remuneration. The Judge adopted this view of the case, and dismissed the summons. Mr. Stokes observed that Mr Remfry had issued the summons without consulting any professional adviser. BACHELORS' BALL. On Thursday the 8th instant, a ball given by the bachelors of Falmouth, took place in the Polytechnic Hall, in the town; and we understand that the invitations (which were issued to three hundred) were availed of by nearly two hundred ladies and gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood. The company began to arrive at nine o'clock and at ten dancing commenced, the music being under the directorship of Mr. EMIDY. At one o'clock the bachelors led their guests to the galleries of the hall, where a very recherch� supper composed of every delicacy of the season, and prepared by Mr. DINGLEY of the Royal Hotel, was partaken of; after which the company recommenced dancing, and kept it up in a most animated manner until an advanced period of the morning. The tasteful decorations of the hall (which were carried out by a committee appointed for that purpose) added much to the coup fail[?] MINE ACCIDENT. On Saturday last, at Wheal Margaret, in the parish of Lelant, as a man named Charles THOMAS, the parish of Ludgvan, was at work at the 140 fathoms level, a scale of ground fell from the back of the level and broke his thigh in two places, and severely bruised his head. WRESTLING. � On Thursday the 8th instant, the annual wrestling came off at St Stephens in Branwell, when the play was considered to be the best ever seen in that parish, and gave general satisfaction to all on the ground. The prizes were awarded as follows: 1st prize to John JENKYN, St. Enoder; 2nd ditto, to Edwin TRUSCOTT, St. Stephens; 3rd ditto, to Henry TRUSCOTT, St Stephens; 4th ditto, to William BURN, Roche. FROM THE METEROROLOGICAL REPORTS furnished from Truro, Falmouth, and Helston, it appears that the mean temperature of the air during the quarter was about fifty-two degrees, and the rain that fell about eight inches. EMIGRATION. � The "Royal Adelaide," which was advertised to sail on the 6th instant for Quebec, was wind bound at Fowey until the morning of Monday last, when she set sail with about one hundred passengers on board, all of whom appeared in excellent spirits, and the wind being air, and the vessel a fast sailer, in about an hour she was out of sight from the shore. DARTMOOR PRISONS. Government agents are, at length, busily employed in preparing the prisons of war at Prince Town for the reception of convicts. It is expected that the first arrival of prisoners will be in about two months, if the place can be got ready for them so soon. Mr. Geo. FOWLER, who has done so much to reclaim the moor, and to give an impetus to cultivation there, long since expressed an opinion of the desirableness of the experiment now about to be made by government. He is strongly impressed with the belief that if the cultivation of the moor is carried on by convicts under judicious management, the prison may be made in five years, a self supporting establishment. ST AUSTELL POLICE. � On Wednesday the 7th instant, a sailor named Charles Richards NANKERVIS was committed by Mr. Thomas HEXT to take his trial at the next quarter sessions, on a charge of stealing a coat, waistcoat and other articles of clothing, the property of John Hortmen RAWE, of the "Ranger" lying at Charlestown. GARDEN DEPREDATIONS. On Friday night last, some ill-disposed person or persons destroyed in a garden at St Erth church-town, a quantity of fine seen leeks, value about �1 10s., the property of Mr. Burgain, constable of that parish. EMIGRATION TO THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE - In first class SHIPS of large tonnage chartered, fitted, and despatched by Her Majesty's Colonial Land and Emigration Commissioners is prepared to receive a limited number of Applications from Agricultural Labourers, Shepherds, Herdsmen, and their Families; also Female Domestic or Farm Servants, and a few Single Country Mechanics who may be desirous of obtaining the nearly Free Passages in the Commissioners' Ships from Plymouth to the Cape of Good Hope.

J. B. WILCOCKS. Agent to Her Majesty's Colonial Land and Emigration Commissioners, Barbican, Plymouth. 23 AUGUST 1850, Friday COUNTY COURTS. At the court held at Penzance, on Tuesday and Wednesday the 14th instant, there were no fewer than 125 causes for hearing, though nine were of any particular interest. A travelling draper had no less than thirty-five cases. John POTTER, insolvent, late a beerhouse keeper at Penzance, filed his petition and received protection from process. Henry ROACH was committed to the county gaol for forty days, for disobedience of an order of court for payment of 11s. The Redruth Court held its monthly sitting on Thursday the 15th instant, when the number of plaints entered were seventy-three, the greater portion of which were arranged out of court. The Judge stated that he should direct a prosecution to issue against John RULE, of Camborne, miner, for wilful and corrupt perjury, at the last and present court, in the matter between himself and James JENKIN, of that place. SMUGGLING. - On Monday last, in consequence of some information communicated to them, the Custom-house Officers at Falmouth, made a search in several houses in the town. At the house of Mr. TOMS, they found three jars containing spirit and a small quantity of tobacco. At Mr. Pasco's in Webber-street, they took four boxes of cigars, but on examination they proved to be English and were accordingly returned to him again next day. STANNARIES' COURT. - This Court was opened on Saturday last, the Town Hall, Truro, before the Vice-Warden of the Stannaries. The following motions were made in equity: - RICHARDS v. GILBERT. West Tolgus and Treloweth. A petition by the purser of this mine for recovery from defendant of �20 3s. 3d. due to shares. No answer had been filed by defendant (who lives out of the Stannaries), and on the motion of Mr. STOKES, the Court granted a decree of payment, in or less than seven days after service. TILLY v. BROOKES. West United Hills. This was a purser's petition from recovery of �45. from defendant Mr. HOCKIN moved, (on the Registrar's certificate that no answer had been filed) for a decree pro confesso for payment. Decree for payment granted in not less than fifteen clear days after service. SIMMONS v. LYLE. Carcannal Mine. Plaintiff was Mr. George Nicolls SIMMONS, the purser of the mine; defendant was Mr. Joseph LYLE. This was a purser's petition for recovery of costs. On the 13th July a decree for payment within twenty-eight days was granted, and Mr. G. N. SIMMONS now moved, on the affidavits, for an order nisi for sale. The affidavits stated service at Mr. Lyle's residence, Bonython House, near Helston, and that the sum claimed had not been paid, named �259 2s. 6d. being part of the sum of �341 5s. 9d. mentioned in the decree of payment granted on the 13th of July. Rule nisi for sale granted. RICHARDS v. HOCKIN and CLEAVE, and OTHERS. � Wheal Queens. Mr. CHILCOTT, on the part of defendant Hockin, moved for costs of the opposition to exceptions filed by Mr. G. N. SIMMONS, in behalf of plaintiff, and argued at the last sittings, when the exceptions were overruled and the report confirmed with an order that Mr. WOOLCOCK should be added as an adventurer. Mr BENNALLACK made a similar application for costs on the part of other defendants, for when he appeared. It was arranged that Mr. Simmons should show cause against the motion on affidavits, which the advocates on the other side should see, that they might put in counter affidavits if necessary. RICHARDS v. BRANSCOMBE. West Tolgue and Treloweth. A purser's petition for recovery of �26 5s. 10d., as costs due for defendant on 8-940th shares in this mine. No answer having been filed, Mr. STOKES moved for a decree pro confesso for payment. The VICE-WARDEN - Take a decree for payment in ten clear days after service. TILLY v. GUSTARD. A purser's petiton for recovery of costs to the amount of �30. There was no answer, and on the motion of Mr. HOCKIN, a decree was granted for payment in twelve days after service. FALMOUTH POLICE - At the Guildhall, Falmouth before Lieutenant HILL, and Mr. ROGERS, William ROWE, boatman was placed at the bar for an assault on an old man called Alexander STEWART, also a boatman. Stewart stated that on Monday last, Rowe met him at Jago's and struck him a violent blow on the face which broke the skin near the left eye, and then struck him another severe blow on the mouth which knocked out one of his teeth, and he would have been him more if he had not been prevented. John PHILPOTT and Thomas RICHARDS corroborated Stewart's statement, and the bench decided that Rowe had committed a gross assault on the old man, and fined him �1 and 11s. expenses, or fourteen days' imprisonment. William Rowe, the former defendant, then charged Thomas PHILPOTT with an assault, committed by the defendant on board the steamer "Duke of Devonshire," on Thursday night last, when she arrived in the harbour. It appeared that as the boats of plaintiff and defendant were alongside waiting for passengers, a dispute arose between them, and Philpott struck Rowe on the head with the tiller of his boat. Philpott called a young man named BURMAN, who said Rowe first collared defendant, and that Philpott struck him to get away from him. The bench decided that although there appeared to have been considerable provocation, the weapon which Philpott used in his defence was such as he was not justified in striking with; in consideration, however, of the provocation he had received, they would only fine him 1s. and 9s. expenses, or five days imprisonment. ACCIDENT AT THE AMERICAN CIRCUS. Last Friday evening, while the American riders were exhibiting at Camborne, the place being greatly overcrowded, the gallery broke down with a crash, when great numbers of both sexes were thrown pell-mell amongst the fragments of timber, &c. The greatest consternation was naturally occasioned amongst all present, and numbers received bruises and other slight hurts. Some got home with loss of shoes, others with loss of shawls, &c., and we are sorry to say one lady had her leg broken. ACCIDENT. On Saturday evening last, as a little girl and boy, children of William TREVASKUS, a pilot of Hayle, had reached the northern end of the iron bridge at Hayle, on their return from a harvest field, a man called TRERISE, almost blind, drove his cart laden with sand on the bridge, when the nave of the wheel struck the little girl and threw her down, the wheel passing over her right thigh and breaking it in several places and injuring the knee joint. Dr. MILLETT promptly and generously took the child under his care, and hopes are entertained of saving the limb. CORONERS' INQUESTS. The following inquest has been held before Mr. John CARLYON, county coroner:- On Saturday last, at Gwennap, on the body of Thomas DAVEY, aged 16 years, who died on the morning of that day from injuries he received the preceding Wednesday by accidentally falling from one level to another through a pass, in Great Consols mine, where he was at work. - Verdict, "accidental death," TIPPET v. CARVOSSO. Wheal Henry. Mr. PAULL moved for a rule nisi for sale of defendant's shares in this mine. A decree had previously been grated for payment of �5 19s. 5d. Defendant was formerly a coach-builder at Truro. Rule nisi granted. WEDNESDAY, August 21. CRAGO v. TREVAIL and ANOTHER. Mr. STOKES for plaintiff, and Mr. CHILCOTT for defendant; plaintiff was Mr. Thomas CRAGO, of Truro, and defendants were Mr. John TREVAIL, the elder, and Mr. John TREVAIL the younger, both of St Allen. The action was brought to recover �86 10s. alleged to be due on a bond, with interest at five per cent, �4 19s. 3d., making a total claim of �91 9s. 3d. Defendants' pleas were, first, a denial of the making of the bond, and secondly, that the instrument had been obtained by fraud. On the part of plaintiff, Mr. William SALTER, the attesting witness to the bond, and who had acted as plaintiff's agent in various money transactions, was called to prove the execution of the bond by defendants. He was Cross-Examined at considerable length by Mr. CHILCOTT, but it could not be made out that there was anything like fraud connected with the transaction, as defendants had pleaded. It appeared that three or four years ago plaintiff had lent defendants in different sums �500 on mortgage securities, but this had nothing to do with the bond in question. Plaintiff had afterwards lent defendants �30 on a bill of sale, and �20 on a note of hand, and in the course of time an account having been taken of the money transactions between the parties, it was found that �86 10s. was due to plaintiff, including interest, and a bond for payment of that amount was executed by defendants, which was altogether independent of the previous �500 mortgage transaction with plaintiff. The bond was dated 30th of September, 1848, and on its being executed it was substituted for the note of hand and bill of sale given by defendants, which were then cancelled. Mr. Salter said that on the bond being read over in defendants, they executed it by their marks (or maths?) without delay or difficulty. Verdict for plaintiff for �81 9s 8d. SIMMONS v. LYLE. The order nisi for sale of defendant's shares in Carvannal mine, was made absolute, on motion by Mr. G. N. SIMMONS. GUNDRY and OTHERS v. GILBERT. This case was tried on Tuesday, when a verdict was given for plaintiff. Mr. BENNALLACK obtained a rule nisi for a new trial, on the ground that the jury were not justified in finding that the work "YEWENS" was used in the plural sense, the Court reserving the consideration of power to amend the record by striking out the name of Thomas YEWENS. MAGOR v. SPARGO. Wheal Sarah. Mr. BENNALLACK, for defendant, moved to withdraw the answer to the petition. Leave granted. Thursday August 22. LANG v. CARHART. The Vice Warden refused a new trial in this case, moved for by Mr. STOKES on the ground that the verdict was against the weight of evidence. BOLTON v. HIGGS. On the motion of Mr. ROBERTS, the Registrar's report in this case was confirmed.

He had to walk to the field and back, about three miles, and did the work at an early hour of the evening. On Monday he again cut one acre of wheat in the forenoon, and in the afternoon went about other harvest work. PILCHARD FISHERY. - On Saturday night last, one ?ean at Looe, caught about twenty hogsheads of fish. The drift boats at the same place have averaged during the week, from four to five thousand to a boat. At Polperro the drift boats, averaged about the same quantity each night.

EXETER DISTRICT BANKRUPTCY COURT. - At this court, on the 20th instant, in the case of Samuel PARNALL, of East Looe, grocer and draper, the choice of trade assignees took place, when Mr. TOGDON, of Exeter, and Mr. H. H. CROSS, solicitor, Plymouth, appeared for the creditors. After an examination of some hours, (from eleven until three), the answers of bankrupt as to the disposal and removal of his property, were considered by the Commissioner to be unsatisfactory, that he felt compelled in justice to the general body of creditors to commit him to prison. He was accordingly committed, and Mr. Henry HOLMAN, of the firm of HOLMAN and PARDEW, of Plymouth, was appointed trade assignee. The examination of the bankrupt before the Commissioner was in reference to some deeds belonging to property at St Austell, which was vested in him in trust for his sister, Mrs. COOKE, of Looe. These deeds, unknown to his sister, he deposited with Mr. SERGEANT, a farmer of Morval, to secure �100 he had borrowed of him. He afterwards obtained the deeds of Mr. Sergeant on the pretence that there was a probability of having the property renewed for another life; for this purpose he read to Mr. Sergeant a letter which he said came from the steward of the EARL OF MOUNT EDGCUMBE, but which bankrupt had himself written. He was also examined in relation to other transactions, on which his answers were unsatisfactory. CALIFORNIAN GOLD DIGGINGS. - A company has been formed in Breage for the purpose of sending parties to the gold diggings of California. The capital has been all subscribed, and eight men who are going out, have been provided with tents and working tools. The company is to be managed upon the same principles as some of our leading mines, and a code of rules and regulations have been compiled, which appear to meet every requirement. This is the first company of the kind carried out in Cornwall. A farewell supper was given at the Star Inn, in Breage church town, on Thursday the 22nd instant, when about thirty sat down to the roast beef of old England. Several parties addressed the meeting on the state and prospects of the Californian territory, and after a number of complimentary toasts were drank, the meeting separated, the evening having been spent to the enjoyment of all present. ECCLESIASTICAL. - The Rev. P. RUSH, has been installed in the rectory and vicarage of Duloe. The Rev. D. E. Doniville [ ? Duniville ] has been appointed to the perpetual curacy of St. Ives. INDEPENDENT CHAPEL, ST. AUSTELL. - On Monday morning last, the foundation stone of the New Independent chapel, at St Austell, was laid by the Rev. James KERNAHAN, who delivered an appropriate address. In the evening, Mr. Kernahan preached at the Wesleyan Association Chapel, which was kindly let for the occasion. BAPTIST MISSIONS. - On Thursday the 22nd instant, a sermon was preached in the Baptist chapel, St. Austell, by the Rev. N. HAYCROFT, of Bristol, after which a considerable number of persons took tea in the vestry, and at seven o'clock the public meeting was held, when the Rev. E. PRATT presided, and addresses were delivered by the Revd. N. Haycroft and F. TRESTRAIL, of London. On the following Sunday two sermons were preached by the Rev. F. Trestrail, and collections were made which amounted to upwards of �12. ANNIVERSARY. - On Tuesday last the children belonging to the Deveral Wesleyan Methodist Sunday School, enjoyed their annual treat. On their dismissal a public tea was provided in the chapel in aid of its funds. Able addresses were delivered by the Revd. W. APPLEBY, J. KILLICK, J. P. JAMES, and others, and the amount of the proceeds reflected great credit on the friends of the cause. MORE INCENDIARIES AT MULLION. - About ten days ago, an anonymous letter was received by Mr. John THOMAS, of this parish, threatening to burn his property and to do him other serious injury. The treat naturally produced a good deal of excitement in his family, and two days afterwards on going into a field of wheat to cut it, it was discovered that an attempt had been made to set fire to the corn in tow different places. Nothing more occurred to alarm the family until Monday night last, when the fishermen at Mullion were alarmed by a great light in the sky in the direction of Priske Farm, the residence of Mr. John Thomas. On nearing the light they soon found two large ricks of fuel on fire. This was about eleven o'clock, and Mr. Thomas and his family were in bed. They were soon, however, aroused, and great fears were then entertained for the safety of the dwelling-house, but fortunately, the wind shifted, and the fire spread to the stables where were almost entirely destroyed. The shifting of the wind was most providential, as no doubt the incendiary intended the destruction of the dwelling. We understand that a reward of �200 is about to be offered for the apprehension of the guilty parties, who we earnestly hope will ere long be brought to justice. GREENHOUSE ROBERY. - On Saturday night last, the greenhouse of Mr. HOCKIN, of Castle Cottage, Truro, was entered, and some cuttings stolen and plants destroyed. Some of the stolen plants are seedling geraniums of 1849, which are distinct and will be identified with certainty when in flower, coloured drawings have been taken. Three guineas reward have been offered for information which may lead to the convictions of the offender. ROBBERY AT ST AUSTELL. - On Monday the 19th instant, an Irishman named Patrick CARNEY, who travels with a pack, applied to Mr. Wm. PHILLIPS, of St Austell, draper, for some pieces of cloth and other articles under the pretence of showing them to some of his customers in the neighbourhood. Mr. Phillips having had dealings with him before, allowed him to have two pieces of broad cloth, a length of Irish, a shawl, and a wrapper, on the understanding that he was to return them the same day. Carney not having been heard of for some days, Mr. Phillips obtained a warrant against him, and he was apprehended by police constable WESTLAKE at Tavistock. Carney had sold the goods and spent the money. He was brought before Sir Joseph SAWLE GRAVES SAWLE on Tuesday last, and committed to Bodmin to take his trial at the next sessions.
