Hi all, On the wonderful Cornwall database I have found what could be the burial of my JOHN UREN aged 58 at Long Rock. Transcribed by Bill Curnow. Wikepedia tells me where Long Rock is, but my question is: My John Uren was a miner at Chacewater - would there have been any copper mines in Long Rock in 1852 that may have tempted him to move? He was married to Ann/Nanny (nee Hawke) with 10 kids and I understand that he 59 on the 1851 census but absent from the 1861. Freebdm has 2 possible deaths: 1. June Q 1852 at Truro 2. March Q 1855 at Truro neither of which match the one at Long Rock. I have a couple of options for John's birth/christening and can't decide on that either :-) I am pretty sure he was born/chr 1792 to 1795. Marg A in Oz

Sorry, this is off topic but I am sure it will be of interest to many listers.  The 1901 Ireland census has gone on-line tonight. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/ then select 1911 or 1901.  They are both FREE to access in full! Joy

Myra you are an absolute star!! And such a speedy response. This solves a huge problem. My worst fear was William's father was William. That means that the William who turns up in London after marrying in Hampshire *is* the son of William and not a bigamist, having married TREVERTON as well. Follow? >>grin<< William was a popular SOB[E]Y etc name. I know births went un-GRO-registered pre-1874, obviously a marriage can slip through the net. I did check out the OPCs, but didn't find any with the register for the time I needed.

Marg, I believe you are referring to the John UREN, 58, of Long Rock, who was buried at Ludgvan on 18 Dec 1852. In my opinion, this man was the son of James UREN & Anne NICHOLLS who was baptized at Gulval on 14 Jun 1795. He was married at Gulval on 07 Apr 1822 to Elizabeth CORIN, and they had two children prior to her death in 1827. He then married Alice THOMAS at Madron on 18 Nov 1831, and they had at least 8 children. John and family lived at Long Rock at the 1841 and 1851 Census. He was described as a farmer in 1841 and as a farm labourer in 1851. Long Rock is a community that straddles the parishes of Ludgvan and Gulval. It is located on the flat, fertile coastal land along the shore of Mounts Bay. Two major occupations of people living at Long Rock in the 19th century were farming and market gardening and also jobs associated with the GWR that ran through Long Rock on its final approach to Penzance.

Hi Liz, Bell Trees in the Hunter Valley is a beautiful part of the Hunter Valley NSW, it's near Scone in the Upper Hunter Valley in Australia's premier thoroughbred horse breeding area, the valley around Scone is dotted with thoroughbred studs, with billions of dollars worth of prime breeding stock from around the World on each stud, there's billionaire owners of the studs from England, Australia, America and even a couple owned by Saudi and Quaiti Sheiks. Scone and the Bell Trees area it's about 4 hours south of Sydney NSW by car. Have a good trip and if you make it to Bell Trees you'll enjoy yourself, it's a popular get away. But if you take a trip around the horse studs, don't take a shining to any of the foals unless you've got 200, 300, 500 hundred thousand dollars Australian and that would be if your good at bargaining.

Hi Margaret Although WILLEY is a Mullion name, I have come across it, recently, in the Gulval registers. I checked 1813 to 1818 but, unfortunately, no WILLEYs that early in the marriage records. Needless to say, the marriage is not in the Mullion records either. I wonder if the vicar omitted to record the marriage? I have seen the occasional note where a vicar has not recorded the event at the time, although, with the required signatures, it would be difficult to imagine this happening where a marriage is concerned.

WEST BRITON AND CORNWALL ADVERTISER 11 July, 1851 CORNWALL MIDSUMMER SESSIONS - (Concluded from our last paper) On Thursday, the 3rd instant, the last day of the Sessions, the following appeal case was heard: PERRANARWORTHAL, appellant, Mr. DARKE and Mr. GENN; KENWYN, respondent, Mr. SHILSON and Mr. HOCKIN. This was an appeal against an order for the removal of MARY DAVEY and two of her children from respondent to appellant parish. Mr. Darke stated the grounds of appeal on which appellants relied. They admitted the birth settlement of pauper's husband in appellant parish; but set up another settlement described in the sixth ground of appeal. This was a settlement derived by pauper's husband from his father, who had become possessed of an estate in Kea, by a lease granted in 1795 by the Earl of Falmouth. Pauper's husband, MARTIN DAVEY, lived with his father on this estate till the father's death in 1804, when the son was sixteen years of age. Appellants also relied on their ninth ground of appeal, which stated that relief had been granted by the parish of Kea to the widow of the father of pauper's husband, which therefore was an acknowledgment of the settlement of JOHN DAVEY in Kea. The acknowledgment was alleged to have thus arisen: whilst the father of pauper's husband was living on the estate in Kea, he married the second time, and at his death in 1804, his widow went to live in Gwennap, and whilst there, between the years 1818 and 1834, she was relieved by the parish of Kea. Connecting that relief with the husband's settlement by estate in Kea, appellants contended that it was an acknowledgment of his son (Martin Davey's) settlement, the son having married previously to this relief being given. The seventh ground of appeal alleged that pauper's husband had himself acquired a settlement in Kea, by possession of the leasehold estate in which an interest had been bequeathed to him by the will of his father, and on which he had resided some years; but having subsequently removed to Plymouth (more than the ten miles distance specified in the act), and having become dispossessed of the Kea estate, appellants did not rely on this point. The eighth ground set out in another way the settlement of the father of pauper's husband. John Davey built a dwelling-house, and had enclosed, or was to hedge in and enclose, three adjoining acres of land in the parish of Kea. The lease from the Earl of Falmouth was introduced, which stated that in consideration of this, John Davey was granted all those premises for the full term of ninety-nine years at the yearly rent of 8s. Such a property from its nature would confer a settlement by estate upon the father of pauper's husband. The pauper's husband, having resided upon that estate to his father's death in 1804, and being then sixteen years of age, he retained permanently the settlement which his father had gained for him, unless he gained a settlement for himself. If then the father gained a settlement by estate, his son retained the same settlement; for though a man, by removal, may lose a settlement by estate which himself had gained, yet he does not lose a derivative settlement by removal, and in this case the son did not lose his derivative settlement by his removal to Plymouth. Mr. Darke cited a case in confirmation of this, and next adverted to the statute of Charles the Second, which was the origin of the law of settlements, but which referred simply to the removal of a pauper coming to inhabit a tenement under the yearly value of GBP 10. As early, however, as 1723, as cited in Burn, p. 862, came the decision that if a man were residing in a parish in which he was possessed of an estate of his own, he should not be removed: the distinction being then drawn, for the first time, between the ownership of an estate and the renting of a tenement as contemplated under the statute of Charles; and it was then decided that both the nature of the tenure and the duration of the estate were immaterial, it being sufficient if the owner of the estate had been resident for forty days. It was held to be wholly immaterial, as to settlement by estate, whether it were freehold, or copyhold, or for life, or for years; and subsequently, it was further ruled that if the party was not the legal but only the equitable owner, that still the property would confer the settlement, whatever were its duration or the nature of its tenure. Mr. Darke then referred to the case of King V. St. Mary, Whitechapel, Archbold, last edition, p. 545, which he contended would justify a like decision in the present case, wherein a man was possessed of an estate for which he paid a nominal rental. That case, however, was decided previously to the statute, 9th George I. Having then seen that such a holding would confer a settlement previously to the 9th George I, how was the law affected by that statute? The 9th George I, c.7, sec. 5, enacted that "no person or persons shall be deemed, adjudged, or taken to acquire or gain a settlement in any parish or place, for or by virtue of any purchase of any estate or interest in such parish or place, whereof the consideration for such purchase doth not amount to the sum of GBP 30, bona fide paid." Now the decisions upon that statute had been, that it refers only to cases where the consideration for the purchase was merely and solely a money consideration; if the consideration for purchase consisted of anything else, except money, the case was not affected by the statute; the settlement was what it would have been previously to the 9th George I. In support of this view, Mr. Darke cited King V. Marwood, Burn, 903, in which a father had conveyed to his daughter "for natural love and affection" and the Court decided that the case was one which was not affected by the statute of 9th George I. Another decision was in King v. Lifton, 3 Term reports, where the consideration was partly money, and partly "natural love and affection"; and it was decided that the case was unaffected by the 9th George 1. The next was a strong case, that of Lidlinch, Barnewall and Adolphus, which was held to be not within the statute, because the consideration was the surrender of a former lease; all which decisions established, that in order to bring a case within the statute of 9th George 1, the consideration must consist wholly of money. His friends on the other side might contend that in the case before the court, the rent was the consideration of purchase, and that the rent alone was to be considered a pecuniary consideration. His answer to that was, under the cases cited, that although the rent might be held to have been a part of the consideration, yet the actual consideration was the equivalent of the man having built a house, and enclosed, or having to enclose land. The consideration, therefore, was not money, and the case could not be affected by the statute 9th George 1, and if not, the tenement would confer a settlement as before the passing of that statute. But even assuming that by possibility the case were held to be within the statute of 9th George 1, he would then urge that the consideration of GBP 30 had been paid for the estate. On this point he cited Queen V. Carlton, 4, New Sessions case, 1849, and argued, on the authority of that case, that as the house was built before the lease was granted, and as the lease stated the building of the house was part of the consideration, he should show that the value was more than GBP 30; that more than that sum had been expended before JOHN DAVEY became the purchaser, for in a legal sense he was not the purchaser till the lease was made to him. On either of those two views, whether the case did not come within the statute, or whether it did, as the purchase consideration exceeded GBP 30, he contended that the father of pauper's husband had gained a settlement which he gained derivatively from his father. Appellants next relied on an acknowledgment of the settlement of the father of pauper's husband in Kea, by relief given by that parish to the father's second wife, as already stated in the ninth ground of appeal. Mr. Darke quoted Queen v. Brighton, vol 2, New Sessions cases, p.7, and contended that he had a right to connect this relief with the knowledge of the parish officers that the husband of the party relieved had possessed an estate in Kea. If therefore he should fail in strict proof with regard to the estate, he should still ask the Court to come to the conclusion that the relief was granted in consequence of the settlement which was known to exist. The lease granted by the Earl of Falmouth was then put in, and MARY DAVEY, GRACE KELLOW, and ANN BEALES were examined. Mr. SHILSON objected that the relief given was merely a declaration of opinion on the part of the parish officers of Kea, which opinion, whether right or wrong, was no evidence affecting a third party. Mr. DARKE replied it was not a declaration of opinion, but a statement of fact that was sought to be elicited. The objection was overruled, and after the evidence had been given, Mr. Shilson addressed the court for the respondents. [He addressed each of the points in order, contending that JOHN DAVEY, being the original lessee, could not have acquired a settlement, because while a settlement might be acquired under a lease, it could not be acquired by the original lessee, citing King V. Warblington and King v. Hornchurch in support of his argument.] The lease in question was in fact a common lease, of which rent was the consideration, and whether the house was built before or after the lease was perfectly immaterial. He never yet heard that a lease granted for a waste spot of land, and to build a house, would confer settlement. He appealed to the Bench whether it was not contrary to all former practice and experience, that an estate of this kind should confer a settlement. As to the question of the acknowledgement of settlement by relief, which appellants had set up, the son was emancipated at his father's death, and seventeen years had elapsed after the relief was given to the father's widow, the step-mother of the pauper; it would be monstrous to conclude thereupon that it was given in consequence of the father's settlement; it might have been in respect of her first husband's settlement,or a settlement acquired by herself as a widow. Mr. Darke replied, observing that as his friend had appealed to the former practice of the court, he might also state, on his part, that he was fortified with the opinion of an eminent settlement lawyer, Mr. PASHLEY. The court then retired for about half an hour to consider, and on their return the Chairman said - The court is of opinion that the lease is not within the statute 9th George I. Order quashed; no maintenance; common costs. On the application of Mr. Shilson, the Court granted a case for the decision of the superior court, as to whether the lease was of that description as to come within the statute. On the question of acknowledgment by relief, we understood the opinion of the court was with respondents.

WEST BRITON AND CORNWALL ADVERTISER 11 July 1851 LOCAL INTELLIGENCE SECESSION TO THE CHURCH OF ROME Amongst the names of those who have recently seceded from the Church of England to the Church of Rome, we observe that of the Rev. Mr. SHORTLAND, last assistant curate of Penzance. HORTICULTURAL PRIZE At the Royal Botanic Society's exhibition, held in London, on Wednesday the 2nd instant, the bronze medal for the best flavoured melon was awarded to MR. AUSTIN, gardener to the Rev. THOMAS PHILLPOTTS, of Porthgwidden, in this county. TYWARDREATH RURAL GARDENING SOCIETY For more than twenty years this excellent society (being the first established in the west of England) has been actively engaged in promoting the moral and social condition of the labouring classes. The success of its labours, as well as that resulting from the various societies that have sprung from it, is a strong recommendation for public support. We hope the approaching exhibition will be numerously attended as we understand it will afford a rich treat to the admirers of cottage industry. EXTRAORDINARY GROWTH OF TURNIPS Mr. EDWARD RICKARD, of Trispin, is now hoeing four acres of turnips, only sown eighteen days, which may be seen at his farm, Steerfoot, St. Erme. The rows are regular and the plants luxuriant; preparation, wheaten arish, manured with 3 1/2 cwt. of Peruvian guano, broadcast and drilled in with 1 1/2 cwt. of Lawes's superphosphate of lime, mixed with 2 1/2 loads of ashes per acre. THE NAVY In Tuesday's "Gazette", the following names connected with this county appear in the active list of flag officers of the Royal Navy: JAMES CARTHEW, Admiral of the Blue; JOHN COODE, C.B. and BARRINGTON REYNOLDS, C.B., Rear-Admiral of the White. RENEWAL OF THE WATER BOUNDS OF THE PORT OF TRURO On Friday last, the water bounds of the port were renewed by the Town Council, according to ancient custom. The officers of her Majesty's Customs and other persons officially connected with the port, and some personal friends of the Town Council, were invited to take part in the proceedings. The party left the quay at nine o'clock, on board the "SYDNEY" steamer, and proceeded down the river to Messick Point, where the ancient practice of formally arresting one of her Majesty's lieges for the sum of GBP 999.19s.11 1/4 d. was gone through and the necessary bail for his appearance at the Court of Record was accepted. The other usual forms were also observed, and the boundary marks were renewed on a rock near the point. The steamer then proceeded to the Mylor or opposite bank of the river, where the arresting was again proceeded with, and the necessary bail put in for an appearance. The boundary marks T.B. were also made at this spot, when the party returned to the steamer, and had a pleasant cruise through the harbour, and beyond the Black Rock. After this, they returned to the boat-house at Tregothnan, which had been kindly lent for the occasion by the Earl of Falmouth, where a party of forty-five sat down to a sumptuous and elegant cold collation, supplied by Mr. LENDERYOU, of the Red Lion Hotel. The Mayor presided, and the Town Clerk was Vice-President. The usual loyal and local toasts were given, and properly and duly responded to, and the party returned to town about nine o'clock, every person being highly pleased with the arrangements, and with the harmony and good feeling which prevailed. The members of the Town Council present were the Mayor, Dr. BULLMORE, Dr. PADDON, and Messrs. H. ANDREW, J. BARRETT, W. BARRETT, G. CLYMA, COCK, HAWKE, HEARD, SPRY, STOKES, and TIPPET. The Town Treasurer and the Auditors and Assessors also attended the ceremony. We understand it is necessary that these bounds should be renewed within every seven years, in order to preserve the right of the Council to anchorage and metage dues within the bounds, which yield an income of about GBP 300 per year. These rights are of very ancient date, and formerly extended over the whole of the harbour of Falmouth, but the boundaries of the port as now recognized, and on this occasion renewed, were settled by commissioners appointed in the reign of Queen Anne, and confirmed by an act passed in the reign of her present Majesty, for facilitating the collection of the customs duties. SALTASH FLOATING BRIDGE, REGATTA, &C. On Tuesday week, the new Steam Ferry Bridge, to connect Devon with Cornwall over the Saltash Ferry was opened for public use. The morning was ushered in with merry peals from the bells of the parish churches; the public thoroughfares of Saltash and the approaches to the town were gaily decorated with arches of evergreens, flowers, &c.; bands perambulated the streets; and other indications were perceptible of a general holiday. At half-past nine the Mayor and other civic authorities met the shareholders of the company; and a procession being formed they proceeded to the beach, entered the bridge, and its opening was declared in due form. During the day upwards of two thousand persons crossed the ferry by this superior conveyance - every one being delighted with the improvement effected by the present plan, over the old inconvenient ferry boat. The bridge was built by MR. ROUTLEFF, shipbuilder, of Mount Batten yard, Plymouth; and the machinery, iron work, &c prepared at the Plymouth Foundry, by Mr. J. MARE, and is on the same principle as the Torpoint Floating Bridge - a chain running from beach to beach. The bridge is propelled by two condensing engines of six-horse power each. The deck or roadway is in the centre, and is sufficient to take three carriages, with a pair of horses to each, with at least from eighty to one hundred passengers at one time. Two cabins are provided in case of wet weather. The engines are on one side of the roadway, and the boiler on the other. The times of crossing are four times each hour, leaving Saltash every hour and half-hour, and on the Plymouth side at the quarters - the bridge is allowed six minutes for crossing. About one o'clock, a large party sat down to dinner at the Green Dragon, Mr. W. SYMONS, Recorder of the borough, presiding, Mr. CLEVERTON, the town clerk, acting as vice-president. The directors and many shareholders of the company, a number of the respectable inhabitants, and several visitors were present. The dinner was very excellent, and reflected much credit on MR. MARTYN. The regatta matches were fixed to commence at one o'clock; by that hour, the town was crowded, and the scene on the beach was of the most enlivening description. The weather was fine though as the day advanced the wind increased and blew rather too strong for some of the smaller sailing craft. Bands were stationed on either side of the estuary discoursing popular airs, and the entire affair was of the gayest description. Much praise is due to the committee for their excellent regulations. A ball at the Town Hall concluded the day's amusements. A REMARKABLE PURCHASE During the latter part of last week, Mr. RAPSEY, builder, of Truro, received numerous congratulations from friends and fellow-townsmen on an event which rumour had magnified into the sudden acquirement of a considerable fortune. Unfortunately, the truth fell very far short of the fiction founded on it; but still the circumstances connected with it were remarkable. [On Wednesday, Mr. and Mrs. RAPSEY attended a sale of miscellaneous furniture at the Assembly-room, where Mr. TIPPET knocked down to them an antiquated side-board. Soon after receiving the article in his house, Mr. Rapsey had difficulty in opening a drawer, and much to his surprise found a bag wedged behind the drawer. Upon opening the bag, he found it contained 65 British and Foreign silver coins, and one copper farthing of the date 1806. The British pieces comprise some of Philip and Mary, Elizabeth, James 1st and 2nd, and two tokens - a North Cornwall, 1811, and a Bristol, 1811. There were also two coins of the Roman Emperor Galli..us [?]. The last token bore the date of 1638, the initials I.N, and on the quarterings of a shield are arrow-heads - the arms of a Cornish family named NICOLLS. Near the bag, also jammed against the back of the side-board, was a medal and case; it was of silver-gilt, a reward given to meritorious boys at the Helston Grammar School, dated 1801.] FIRE NEAR ST. GERMANS On Friday morning last, about nine o'clock, the farm house called Trewall, occupied by MR. LORD, situate in the parish of St. Germans, was discovered to be on fire, and notwithstanding the most strenuous efforts of the inmates and neighbours, who were soon assisted by the fire engine from St. Germans, and some of the Coast Guard from Downderry, as well as several fishermen, the flames could not be got under until the premises were completely gutted, and most of the furniture consumed. The fire is supposed to have originated by a spark kindling some dry furze, a week's stock of which had been just put in a place adapted to that purpose near the kitchen. To the great exertion made by MR. TAPSON, coal merchant, the fire brigade, and by the Coast Guard, is to be attributed the prevention of the devouring element extending to the granaries, situate in an alarming contiguity. No accident happened, we are happy to say, either to man or beast. Trewall estate is the property of SIR JOSEPH COPLEY; no part of it is insured. CHACEWATER The fifth annual Exhibition of the cattle belonging to the "Chacewater Cattle Insurance Society," was held on Tuesday the 24th ult., when about four hundred head of cattle, chiefly the property of poor cottagers living in the neighbourhood, were shewn. They were in excellent condition and reflected great credit on their owners. Mr. W. C. FOULKES, steward to the Earl of Falmouth, having kindly placed at the disposal of the president of the society, a sum of money for the purpose of encouraging habits of providence, industry and morality, three prizes were given for cows, the property of poor cottagers, being members of the society and living on Lord Falmouth's property, either as owners or occupiers; and three prizes were also given for pigs, the property of poor cottagers living on his lordships land in Kenwyn and Kea. Mr. REYNOLDS, miner, of Tomperrow, obtained the first prize for cows; MARY WATERS, of Creegbraws, the second, and MARY BASTIAN, of Chacewood, the third. The prizes for pigs were awarded first to WILLIAM WORRAL, of Chacewater, the second to THOMAS GRAY, of Kerley, and the third to RICHARD DABB, of Chacewater. The society is in a flourishing state, and has been productive of great benefit in the neighbourhood. TORPOINT PETTY SESSIONS At these session on Tuesday last, before the Rev. T. H. LEY, and a full bench of magistrates, an order was made for the removal of W. HENNING, a pauper, from Rame to Sheviock. JOHN TRAVERS, an artilleryman, was summoned by JOHN THOMAS, of Kingsand, for an assault, but the evidence being unsatisfactory and contradictory the case was dismissed. R. HERRING, an innkeeper, and W. HOAR, a beer-shop keeper, of Hessenford, were fined severally, GBP 2 and the costs, and GBP 1 and 12s. costs, on charges of keeping their houses open for the sale of beer, &c., after eleven o'clock on the nights of the 10th and 11th of June. MR. ELLIOTT, of the parish of Landulph, appeared at the instance of MR. ROBERTS, some of whose property he was stated to occupy, to show cause why he refused to give up possession of the said property, but the case was stopped in limine by MR. CLEVERTON, who appeared for Mr. Elliott, objecting to the service of the notice, which was left with Mrs. Elliott by the officer without reading, in the absence of Mr. Elliott. COMMITTAL CHARLES WILSON, of Bristol, seaman, was on Tuesday last, committed by MR. BRANWELL, mayor of Penzance, to take his trial at the ensuing sessions, on a charge of having stolen a quantity of articles, the property of CHARLES ROGERS, of Scilly, shipwright. ACCIDENTS On Wednesday the 2nd instant, as Mr. T. OLVER, sen., contractor fro the works, was looking on at the Falmouth new Union House erections, a man exploded a hole in the quarry on the grounds, which threw up a quantity of stones, one of which went to the distance of one hundred yards and struck Mr. Olver on the arm causing a fracture. We are glad to learn that Mr. Olver is now in a fair way of recovery. Last week, a woman named TULLETTE, while getting over a hedge, was suddenly affected with giddiness in the head, and falling, broke two of her ribs, and received several contusions on the face and head. She was fortunately discovered immediately afterwards by a neighbour, by whom she was conveyed to a dwelling-house near at hand, where she at present lies in a very weak and delicate state. CORONERS INQUESTS - the following inquests have been held: On Saturday last, a man named SEARLE, whilst driving a heavily laden cart in a narrow lane belonging to Gooseford estate, in the parish of St. Dominic, by some means got jammed between the wheel and the hedge, and he died almost instantly. The verdict was returned accordingly. At the Royal Cornwall Infirmary, on Friday last, on the body of JOSEPH SNELL. Deceased resided at Tregony, and was a well-known colt breaker. On Wednesday week, between three and four o'clock in the afternoon he left Truro, riding a colt which, it was said, he had mounted on that day for the first time, and shortly afterwards he was found about two miles out of Truro, on the London road, in an insensible state with a wound over one eye, from which there had been a great discharge of blood. He was at first removed in a cart to the Wheel public-house at Tresillian, and thence the same evening to the Infirmary, where he was taken care of, but he had evidently received a violent concussion of the brain, and continued in an insensible state up to the time of his death on Friday morning. The colt was stopped a short distance beyond the place where the deceased was found, and from its having a fresh cut near one knee, it no doubt fell, but it did not appear that any one was present at the time. Verdict, accidental death. On Sunday at Mithian, in the parish of St. Agnes, on the body of GEORGE BREWER, aged 23 years. Deceased was a kibble filler at Polberou Consols mine, and whilst at work there on Friday, a stone fell down the shaft and struck him on the back part of the head so violently that he died before he could be removed to grass. Verdict, accidental death. An inquest was held at Trewidland in the parish of Liskeard, on Thursday the 3rd inst., on the body of a new-born infant, found in a gig-house belonging to Mr. OLVER of that place. It appears that on the previous day, an application was made to the sexton of that parish to inter the body, who upon inquiry into the circumstances of the death, very properly refused to bury without a surgeon's certificate, and gave notice to the proper authorities of the nature of the application. An inquiry was immediately instituted, when it appeared from the confession of the girl herself, that a servant of Mr. Olver, named MARY ANN WELSHMAN, was taken unwell during the Friday night, and went out without disturbing any of the family, when she was delivered of a child. After wrapping it carefully, she deposited it in the gig-house, and afterwards went to bed. The next and following days she got up and performed her work, and on Monday washed for the family, without any apparent inconvenience. As she had previously denied her pregnancy to her mistress, she did not inform her of what had taken place until the Sunday, although she had mentioned it to some other parties on the Saturday. As the body was rather in an advanced state of decomposition, and the girl declared it was still-born, a verdict was returned accordingly, there being no evidence to prove the contrary. On Tuesday an inquest was held at Callington on the body of the daughter of CAPT. JOHN TABB, who was knocked down and severely bruised by the wheel of a waggon on the previous Tuesday, and a verdict returned of "accidental death". CORNWALL COUNTY COURTS St. Austell - This court was held in the Town-hall on Thursday the 3rd instant, when twenty-seven cases were entered for trial. Truro - At this court, on Friday last, about thirty cases were entered for trial, none of which were of public interest, and the business was concluded at an early hour. GILL v FERRELL - This was a case tried at the last sittings, when plaintiff, a farmer of St. Allen, recovered GBP 4 from defendant, for the loss of two sheep, which it was alleged were killed by defendant's dog. [Mr. CHILCOTT moved for a new trial, as the verdict was against the weight of evidence. He read affidavits by WILLIAM HOOPER and ROBERT VINCENT, farmers, whose estates adjoin the land farmed by the defendant; and who deposed that defendant's dog had been constantly about their farms, amongst their sheep, and had never injured any. RICHARD ANDREW, blacksmith, also made affidavit of the harmlessness of the dog; and another affidavit by JOHN FERRELL, defendant, as to the motives which induced him to hang the dog when complaint was made about the sheep-killing. It was not because he believed the dog killed those sheep. After hearing Mr. STOKES on the part of plaintiff, the Judge decided to give a new trial of the case, on condition of defendant paying the costs of the first trial; the new trial to be by jury. Penzance - At the monthly sittings of this Court on the 8th and 9th instant, the new rules laid before both houses of parliament pursuant to the 12th and 13th Vict. were brought under notice of the Court and the professional gentlemen present. [One such was that no attorney shall be allowed to appear for any person in the County Court, until he has signed a roll or book to be kept for that purpose.) The cause list presented an array of fifty-six cases, the majority of which were settled out of Court; with one or two exceptions the cases heard were undefended and wholly of an uninteresting character. DEVON FEMALE SMUGGLERS OUTWITTED On the arrival of the "Brunswick" steamer from Guernsey, on Wednesday week, at Stonehouse, she was boarded by Mr. MOLLYNEUX, tide-surveyor, and his crew; the passengers were subjected to a severe scrutiny on leaving the vessel, all of whom denied having contraband articles on their persons. The bulky appearance of two respectable looking females, mother and daughter, named OLIVER, residents of Guernsey, excited the attention of Mr. Mollyneux; he, however, permitted them to land, but as they walked with difficulty, he afterwards invited them into the private room attached to the Baggage Warehouse, Brunswick Wharf, and told them as he had no doubt they were well padded, he would furnish them with his penknife to cut the stitches with which, he supposed, tobacco was fastened inside their dresses. The result was, that they turned out each about fifteen pounds of manufactured tobacco from their clothes; they were taken before the Magistrates of Devonport, on Thursday, and remanded until Saturday to abide the orders of the Board of Customs. The Magistrates and auditory were convulsed with laughter when the tide-surveyor was giving a description of the mode of concealment and the delicate position in which he was placed; he admitted that he was not in the room, but sent them in, in order that they might quietly denude themselves of their habiliments and the load of tobacco, which, with the thermometer at 108 in the sun, must have been a great relief. PHILIP DUN, chief boatman, at the same time suspected and searched a man named YORK, who had a belt round his waist next the skin, containing 2 3/4 lb. tobacco. He has been convicted in the penalty of 1s. and discharged. LAUNCH There was launched at Bideford, on the 1st instant, from the building yard of Mr. WATERS, a handsome clipper schooner, of about one hundred and fifty tons, old measurement, coppered and copper fastened. This vessel is intended for the Mediterranean and Newfoundland trades. She will be commanded by Capt. EDMUND LUKEY, of Scilly, and is owned by the Master, Messrs. FRANCIS BANFIELD and Sons, Mr. HUGH TREGARTHEN, and others of the same place.
