magistrate sentenced the wife to one month ' s hard labour ; and the women assembled outside the court knocked the husband's hat over his eyes when he came out . -Higgins and Davis , charged with swindling the nurseryman at Chelsea , have been again remanded .- — The cabman , Field , who attempted suicide , has had paid over to him the whole amount of the donations received on his behalf . The sum

is 847 . 16 s . 5 d . The litigation , involving a large sum of money , between the London and County Bank and the official manager of the unfortunate Tipperary Bank , has advanced-a step by the judge of the Encumbered EstatesCourt in Dublin , giving judgment in favour of the baiik . The judgment exonerates the bank directors from the imputation of having been aware of the late John Sadleir ' s frauds , restores to the bank the advances it had made to Sadleir , and deprives the creditors of the Tipperary Bank of a fund which they relied on . An appeal ; will ,

no doubt , be entered .- A case has been tried this week in the Court of Divorce , which , in one shape or another , has been before the public for four years . This is the old suit of Evans v . Evans and Robinson ) whiph came before Mr . Justice Cresswell at Liverpool . The shape it now assumes is a suit by Mr . Evans for the dissolution of the marriage . The case was brought to a close on Wednesday . The jury returned a verdict , that Mrs . Evans had committed adultery with . Mr . Robinson , and that Mr . Evans did not desert his wife without sufficient justification . The

plaintiff therefore , has secured a divorce . — -The Eastern Counties Railway Company have discovered a system of fraud by which their servants have been robbing them to a great extent * Henry Newman was charged at Worship-street with having obtained from a Mr . Sproul , a cheque for the payment of 201 . 2 ^ ., with intent to cheat the railway company , his masters . The lawyer said ) that although the company had thirteen cases against the prisoner , they would proceed on three only . The accused was committed for trial . —Fromthe proceedings in the

Court of Queen's Bench in the case of Vincent Scullys . Ingram , M . P ., it would appear as if the public were never to hear the last of John Sadleir or his rascalities . Mr . Ingram , who appears to have had business relations with Mr . Sadleir , is charged with having made grave misrepresentations in the matter of a certain Irish estate , called Castle Hyde , by which Mr . Scully sustained a severe pecuniary loss . Ultimately the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff , damages 300 Z . ~—• In the Court of Queen ' s Bench two cross actions have been heard : one was Mr .

Weatherly against the Duke of Beaufort , the other the Duke against Mr . Weatherly . Mr . Weatherly was presont at the last Brighton races , on horseback , and his horse pushed his grace of Beaufort , who was engaged in playing at the aristocratic game of " Aunt Sally / ' The duke struck at the horse and his rider , and eventually unhorsed him . The matter resulted in the trial which took place on Saturday . The jury found a verdict for the plaintiffs in both cases ; they gave Mr . Weatherly one hundred pounds damages and the duke one farthing .- On

Saturday , two young men charged two constables with having improperly interfered with them in the streets , and with having locked them up on a trumped-up charge . The case was investigated with great care by Mr . Corrie , who sharply reproved the policemen for their conduct , and fined the one who was chiefly responsible for the outrage . Robert Johnston , the individual charged with inhumanity towards his daughter , Frances , made a public appearance in the city on Saturday afternoon , and stated the case from his own point of view , and in a

way which impressed the audience in his favour . From his statement , it appeared evident that the magistrate who condemned him had done so hurriedly , and , by refusing the application for an adjournment of the investigation , had prevented the defendant from calling evidence in his favour . The defence which Johnston made imputes bad conduct to his children . Before the meeting closed , he replied to a number of questions put to him by the audience ; and the proceedings terminated

with the adoption of a resolution expressing the conviction of the meeting that he had not recommended his sons and daughters to lead a life of infamy . Several circumstances combine to show that government are in possession of some important facts as to disaffection in Ireland . Fifteen young men were arrested in the neighbourhood of Cork last week , charged with belonging to an illegal society } and from the north of Ireland news has been received of the capture of another ribbon lodge near Belfast , consisting also of fifteen persons .
