In the Mouse of Lords, on Wednesday, the Earl of Liverpool, in reply to a question from the Marquis of Lausdown, denied that the preservation of the peace of Europe was absolutely hopeless, though he admitted that the probability of averting- a war between France and Spain was greatly dimi- nished. In the House of Commons, cm Friday, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in a Committee to consider of the Beer Duties Acts, brought forward ft series of Resolutions for permitting- an intermedi- ate quality of beer between the present strong and smalj. beer to be brewed for sale. The principal features of the proposal are-** That it shall be com- petent for any person to take out a Licence for selling- Deer or ale of a quality not exceeding in price 27s. per barrel, and paying- a duty of 5s. per barrel; that the beer shall be sold in any quantity down to a pint; that it shall not be consumed on the premises where it is sold ; that brewers and publicans shall not be allowed to brew or sell the beer of intermedi- ate quality on the premises where they carry on their ordinary business; and that the persons selling the new quality of beer shall be free from the controul of the Magistrates. The proposed measure was opposed by Mr. Alderman Wood, o « behalf of the publicans of Loudon ; the resolutions, however, were assented to without a division.

The plaintiffs are co- partners, as bonkers and solicitors, at Holywell, iu the county of Flint,;' and tbe defendant Mr. Taylor is tbe sole proprietor, and Mr. Garnott tbe printer and publisher, of a news paper called The Manchester Guardian. The action was brought to recover compensation in damages for a libel alleged to have been published by the defendants,- of aud concerning tl| e plaintiffs, in" an article on the evil tendency of Provincial Notes, inserted in that paper on Saturday, Sept. 7, 1822, to which the readers' attention were called by the following paragraph in tlie leading article of the paper: — " Local Notes. An interesting com- munication on this subject, to which we refer our readers, will be found in our 4th page." the article, which was very long, was headed " Pro- vincial Money- Maker's - Local," and the parts complained of were the following : " To such lengths do the people of Manchester actually go ill this folly- this madness, that we ourselves saw a few days' ago some notes, payable, at a place in Wales, which had been issued by two vagabonds, one of whom was formerly a pettifogger in this town, who, after two years' imprisonment for conspiring with a bankrupt to defraud his cre- ditors— after being consequently shunned by all decent men— after making from his last residence here a " moonlight flit," to avoid a distraint for poor- rates, which he had appealed against on the ground of POVKUTY— V. elit irn/ nediately, in ^( injunc- tion with the other wretch, tocoinineiree " bank- ing;" and is now beginning to avenge himself for the treatment be experienced here, by indirectly drawing away our solid valuables, in exchange for the dirty rag's, which present no security but for his or iiis partner's iv't^ r rlti and wtnith?' " We really wish our townsmen would unite and resolve to drive ail local rubbish out o'f circulation." " Just let them ( the inhabitants of Manchester) call to mind the reasons which induced them to forbid their old bankers to issue local notes, and compare this act with their present toleration and encouragement of all the most despicable rubbish that the county contains, even down to that of the prison bird and confessed pauper in Wales." The plaintiff admitted, upon the record, that he bad been convicted, in 1813, with some other persons, of a conspiracy for suing out a fraudulent commission of bankruptcy ; and Mr. Jervis ( bis Counsel), in stating the case, said be bad for that unfortunate circumstance been imprisoned two years, and .^ aid a fine of £ 50; but that, after doing sit, he had recommenced business, at Manchester, and by his upright conduct reclaimed his professional business to a very considerable extent. the WAI.

Two applications had been made to the defend- ants to give up the author of the libel; tiie. first on Sept. 17th by Mr. Sudlow ( an attorney's clerk, and formerly cleik to Mr. Dicas) to Mr. Garnett, who said lie would consult Mr. Taylor, and give him an jinswer iu the afternoon, which he did tp the effect following—" that he did not know Mr. Dicas or Mr. Williams at. all in the matter, and therefore did not find himself at liberty to gi ve up either the original manuscript or the name of tbe author." The second application was made by Mr. Cotes ( an attorney) to Mr. Taylor, on the 27th of September, who told him that a similar application had been made ten days before, aud he had already given for answer that they did not know any claim Mr. . Dicas had on them, and they should not give up either the one or the other. The whole of the article containing the libel was then read, after which 5} f. Cotes slated that he took in the Manchester Guardian, that lie read the article through, aud immediately applied the offen- sive passages to the plaintiffs ; lie knew Mr. Dicas had been an attorney in Manchester, and that he had gone to Holywell ; was aware of his leaving before he went, and saw handbills posted about the town for the sale of his furniture ; was surprized at hearing of his leaving business in Manchester, where he had been so long established, and had a good deal of business. On tbe 1st of February, 1823, witness received another ManchesterGuardiun, in which be read another paragraph respecting the plaintiffs.— The associate was about to read it, when Mr. Winter, for defendants, objected thereto, on the ground that no act done after tbe action was commenced could be adduced in support of it.— Mr. Taunton, for plaintiff's, contended he had a right to its being read, for the purpose of shewing the quo anirno of the defendants; and in this the Judge concurred. It was as follows : " We have this week been served with notice of an action against us to recover damages for an alleged libel against Mr. John Dicas, a ci- devant attorney in this town, and a person who calls him- self Griffith Williams. Who or what Griffith Wil- liams is we are quite unaware, having never, to the best of our recollection, heard of him before.— As we have not yet received a copy of the declaration, we do not know what observations of ours have roused Mr John Dicas to this effort in defence of his spotless reputation." Iu his cross- examination, Mr. Cotes said he knew Mr. Dicas had been convicted of a conspiracy with tyvo other persons for suing out a commission of Bauk'rtipt-; that he had left Manchester m 1820, and joined another person, and commenced banking. Mr. Pearson for defendant attempted to prove by this witness, tbe reputation Mr. Dicas was in at Manchester, also his solvency, & « .• in order to shew, as he contended, that. Mr. Dicas had no BE putation which could be injured bv the alleged libel ; and this he said could only be done by prov- ing what was the current report respecting it. Mr. Jervis and Mr. Taunton objected to any hearsay conversation being adduced as evidence to matter of fact. A variety of cases were quoted on both sides, but that on' which defendants' counsel prin- cipally relied was tbe one of Lord Leicester r. Walker.— This, plaintiffs' counsel said, had since not only been much shaken, but also a decision had recently been given by one of the Courts above, that tbe doctrine laid down therein was nut law; and Lord Chief Justice Abbott had stated, in a question of this kind, that a defendant could not be allowed to publish one libel and give evidence that might justify another. The Judge decided that no question could be put. as to the reputation or the sol vency of the defendant. Witness :— J niay have heard persons say they were surprized, and that it was wrong' for Mr. Dicas to commence the business of banker. He joined Mr. Williams in December, 1820,- 1 never saw any of their notes in circulation.— I have been iu Flintshire two or three times, and never saw any of them ; never heard Dicas say their bank was doing very little business; he told me he was in ( luced to give up business at Manchester by the solicitations of Mr. Williams to join him in bu- siness: I have hml business with Mr. Dicas in Several actions at Manchester, and they have not been otherwise than respectable, Part of his bn- sineSs vvas not of tbe first rate respectability.. On his re- e. xaniinati^ ni. Witness stated that, from his own knowledge, he did, not know of Mr. Dicas being engaged in any other than respectable business. Mr. Sndlovv was clerk to Mr. Dicas from June 18) 5, to May 1818 : he practised as an attorney and solicitor,— Witness went to him about a mouth after tbe expiration of his imprisonment: his business then was trifling, but he soon recovered it, and it became very considerable; On his eross- examin- ation, lie stated. that Mr. Dicas had some very re- spectable clients, and some that lie had a difficulty in getting paid by. " I cannot say it was a petti- fogging business; he bad some causes that I til ought he had better have avoided ; lie was not a paiiper; he was. at oue time considerably pressed for money owing by him at the time of his con viction." Re- examined :—" At th t time he had a great deal of money owing him; I have taken checks to his bankers for money." Edward Phillips, clerk in tlie post- office at Holy- well, proved the receipt of a newspaper containing the alleged libel, also one being sent to Mr. White- house ; that neither of them bad ever had one before; that he applied the passages to the plain- tiffs.— lu his . cross- examination, lie stated that the plaintiffs paid 12 or £ 14 every three months for postage; that he had received four of their notes from ' Squire Thomas ; and also received some from different people. Thomas Shefier, clerk and cashier in the plain- tiffs' bank, stated their average amount ot one- pound notes, prior to tbe publication of tbe libel, was about £ 1900; when presented they yvere always paid. After the publication of the libel, a vast number of them came iu— about 1000 in six weeks, and as soon as they issued any out, they would, perhaos in the course of an hour, coine in ag- ain ; their business decreased very much, and dwindled almost to nothing. Mr. Williams was the managing partner, and is a man of very considerable property, which consisted of freehold, leasehold, mortgages, funded property, bonds, notes, & c.— On his cross- examination, be stated that a person w ho could not read might take one of their notes for San key aud Co.' s, but the picture in the margin was different, that of Sankey's having a lady within the circle, and the Plaintiffs W. 6c D. The person on whom they drew in London was a brother of Mr. Williams, who was sent there on purpose for them to draw upon him. Witness was then closely pressed as to the number of bills that had been returned dis- honoured, but stated he only recollected one; admitted the plaintiffs at that time owed £ 50 to Mr. Venables- ( a barrister), and about £ 80 to a Mr. Lloyd, druggist, Liverpool; that Mr. Venahles was not paid, but that proceedings had been insti- tuted, and there was a judgment against tbe plaintiffs, who had brought a Writ of Error. On his re- examination, it. appeared that Mr. Venables's debt was for fees on account of a commission of lunacy, in which the plaintiff's' bill still unpaid was from 12 to £ 1500, of which above £ 700 was money advanced out of their pockets. Their notes were only payable at Holywell, and their present correspondent's in London were Messrs. Denison Slid Co. Bankers. Edward Humphreys, Esq. and John Ingleby, Esq. were examined as to tbe plaintiff, Mr. Williams, being a man of property ; the latter gentleman stated him to he worth from £ 14,000 to £ 20,000; also as to their having employed plaintiffs in profes sional business of importance : also as to receiving aud paying- away their notes, previous to tiie pub- lication in question, in the same manner as those of anv other bank. beminick Burke and Robert Roberts were exam- ined as to the circulation of the notes previous to Sept. 7, and their not being- in so much credit since. After which, Mr. Pearson, who called no wit- nesses, addressed the Jury on behalf of the defend- ants; in doing which be said, if the characters of the plaintiffs stood So high as they were represented to be, and if the defendants were such calumniators as was stated, lie should like to know why this action was not tried where both parties were best known, namely in Lancashire; or why not in Flintshire, instead of being brought into Shrop- shire before persons that were entire strangers to their respective characters; and contended that the defendants, agreeing with the majority of their fellow- townsmen at Manchester, that the circulation of local notes vras of pernicious tendency, had done only that which tbev were entitled to do, namely, expose. that tendency to the world. lie observed that Bankers of respectability, such as were to be met with iu Shrewsbury and many other places, were a benefit to the public ; hut there were others which were quite the reverse. The leading object of the article in question, he said, was the general good of the public ; and that, however forcible the reasoning in an article of that kind might he, it never made its way sufficiently to the minds of the public, without being illustrated by examples, & he thought that in the present case his client had made a very apposite illustration. The plaintiffs were de- scribed in the pleadings as Bankers and Solicitors, and that they were in solvent circumstances: this, he argued, bad not been proved ; & t if his Lordship should be of the same opinion then his clients would be entitled to a verdict; but if otherwise, then tbe plaintiffs would, and to such an amount as he would not describe, but which tbe smallest coin in tbe realm was too large to pay. He then proceeded to comment upon the evidence that had been adduced, and enlarged, with his usual eloquence, and in the most severe manner, upon the confined circulation of the bank— the similarity of the plaintiff's' notes to those of the respectable bank ofSankey and Co. — the brother of one of the plaintiffs being sent to London for fhe sole purpose of accepting their notes — upon the debts due to Mr. Veunbles, Mr. Lloyd, & c.; aud then entered upon the fact, as admitted upon the record, that the plaintiff Dieas had been convicted of a conspiracy for suing out a fraudulent commission of bankruptcy, the nature of which trahsaetion he explained anil deprecated in the strongest terms, lie said he did not mean to say any thing disrespectful of Mr. Williams, hut when he chose to all v himself as partner with Mr. Dicas, he must take tiie consequence of such a connexion. He concluded bv calling upon the Jury to give a verdict for the defendants, hut if they should be of opinion plaintiffs were entitled, then he trusted they would not give more than one farthing damages. The Learned Judge then summed up; noticed the different allegations in the alleged libel, and the evidenee that had been adduced. Part of the charge, he said, was admitted on tbe proceedings to be true ; but then the defendants were not justified in publishing the remainder. He who publishes any thing concerning another should take care that be charges him with nothing more than is actually true ; for if he does, he must take the consequences : and he told the Jury it would be for them, after they had read the article, to say whether they considered it a libel, and if so, what damages the plaintiffs had sustained thereby, and give their verdict accordingly.

Charles Cecil Cope Jeukinson, of Pitch- ford Hall, FotttiMA. f. Eduiuud fMowden, Esq. of Hatton Grange William Lloyd, Esq. of Aston Edward William Smythe Owen, Esq. of C'ondover Park John Arthur Lloyd, Esq. of Leaton Knolls William .

His Majesty's Proclamation against Vice, Pro- faueness, aud Immorality was then read; and on its conclusion, His Lordship delivered the following CHARGE: "< 3E3Tt* MEI » . " I am extremely glad that in this, as in the other counties 011 the circuit, the number of prison- ers for, trial is very small. This I am happy in having reason to hope has ariseu from the increased attention which has' been paid to the classification and employment of persons who are committed to our prisons, by the Magistrates and others whose duty it is to superintend those places. I hope that the'higher orders now begin to feel the advantages arising from affording education to those in humble life ; and that the lower classes feeling the many advantages, and actuated by the moral effects, of a religious education, are less disposed to give way to those propensities, by an indulgence of which our prisons have heretofore been crowded. I can find no other cause by which so happy an effect can have been produced. In the present calendar there are not only a smaller number of prisoners, but very few of a peculiarly criminal character; and only two or three to which I feel it necessary to call your especial attention. Tlte first of these is the case of Richard Howells, charged with having set lire to a barn. and build- ings; and I am sorry to say the depositions as to this case have been only this moment handed to me. I do not . blame the Magistrate before whom these depositions were taken, but his clerk or some por- tion interested in the case should take care that the depositions should be transmitted ; and I shall take the only course left to me for punishing such neg- lect, by refusing tlie Attorney for the prosecution his expenses. It is of the first importance to justice that the Judge should have the power of re- ferring to the depositions as soon as possible, in order that he may pay that attention which is ne- cessary for the purpose of placing the. case properly for your attention ; hut in the present instaucc I Iiave had so little opportunity of knowing the con- • tents of the depositions, that I shall not pass a single observation more, excepting us to the law of the case. And in order then that this crime, should he brought within the statute, it will be necessary for you, in finding a bill, to be satisfied that the act was done with a malicious intent. The act itself is pre.- mptive of malice, unless the case should " prove one of accident, anil if this should be the case, the prisoner's offence will be taken out of the statute. — The next ease is that of John Newton, charged with the murder of his wife. Gentlemen, from some circumstances which have come to my knowledge, I am led to believe that when put 011 his trial, an attempt will be made to set up a plea of insanity. If bis insanity should be so clear to you as to leave no doubt that he was insane when he committed the act with which he stands charged, you will not fi id a bill against him. If, however, you should not be satisfied of this, I should advise you to rind a bill, because there is an Act of Parlia- ment by which it is provided that in such cases, where the insanity is proved, the parties are very properly taken care of during- his Majesty's plea- sure. If you throw out the Bill, there is no power of placing the person accused under the controul of this salutary Act. In the present case, you will be governed by the evidence ; and if you should be satisfied that the wife came to her death by his hands, I should at any rate advise you to find a bill. It is desirable that you should examine sur- geons so as to prove to your satisfactiou that the woman came to her death by the blows given by her husband, and then your duty will be rendered clear.— There is another case : I mean that of Thomas Touilins, Mary Toinlins, and John Mad- dux, charged with wounding and killing a pig, I confess I have made sonic inquiries to know whether there had been any similar case that had brought this description of offence under what is termed the Black Act, an Act so penal 111 its effect, that I should pause in opening any description of offence for the first time to its operation. My opinion is, I must say, that it does not come under this Act. If the evidence should appear to you decisive as to the offence, you will find the bill, and I w ill endeavour to state tlie lav/ of the case as the evidence shall place the fact before the consideration of the Jury. — There is no other case that I am aware of which is likely to present any difficulty that your experi- ence and knowledge will not enable you to sur- mount. If, however, there should arise any doubt i. i your minds, I shall be extremely happy in ren- dering vouany assistance that it is in iny power to afford." The Grand Jury Iben retired ; and as soon as they returned fine bills, the Trials of the prisoners com- menced, in the following order.

Immediately after was missed ; next d at a public- house at Goboweu, and ihe watch " as found iu her possession.— It appeared she vvas travelling in connection with a male acquaintance, from whom his Lordship said he should take care that her sentence should effect a separation. EDWARD MATTHEWS, aged 2\ from the neighbourhood of Liverpool, was convicted of break- ing into the dwelling house of James Parsons, of Whixall, 011 the 27th of August last, in the day- time, no person being therein, and stealing four one- pound notes, one half- crown piece and sixpence in silver, and 10* d. in copper, with several other half- crown pieces, a purse, a waistcoat, Sic.— It appeared from the e. idence of the prosecutor, who was a very decent- looking working man, that in the week befoie the robbery, he went with a loud of turf to Malpns, in Cheshire; that in the Ited Lioti Inn there he met with the prisoner, who said he wanted work, on which prosecutor engaged him to work for one week ; that lie took liini with him. and having employed him for three days, during which lie lived and lodged with him, the prisoner got upon the Sunday moriu ing, left the house, and came no more lo his tvork ; that ou the Tuesday following, the prosecutor and his wife Went from home, leaving the house locked and safe ; that iu a few hours they returned, when they found a large aperture made in one of the walls; and in the morniitg they discovered that a cupboard had been broken open in the kiicbeu, and that Ibe four £ 1 bills, the half- crown and sixpence, with the purse and 10| d. in copper had been taken thereout; on further search, they found that a bladder, con- taining many half- crowns, had been taken out of a box up stairs, with Ihe waistcoat, a promissory note, and several receipts for rent.— The prisoner was suspected, and a few daysafterwards, the prosecutor and a constable apprehended him in a neighbouring market town, when the waistcoat was found on hi> back, about £ l. 17s. of the properly was also found on him, and likewise the receipts for rent. The | other articles stolen have not been recovered. In bis defence the prisoner ( although he had before confessed the crime) asserted that lite pro- secutor lold bill! that he had himself broken the wall of the house; the prisoner also Stilted that be had purchased the waistcoat of a hawker in a public. house,- and that flic iballads now produced in having dropped on the floor, the landlady asked whose they were, when lie unfortunately claimed them.— It was equally unfortunate for ilie prisoner that the ballads ( as he termed thertf) now produced were the prosecutor's receipts for rent ; aud the prosecutor stepped forward and said, the assertion made hy the prisoner as to prosecutor's saying he broke the wall of his own house was a fabrication. The Jury having returned a verdict of Guilty, !\ Ir. Justice BBST proceeded to oass seu! 6I((.' e| upon the prisoner as follows " Edward MutlhevVs, you have been found guilty, and it becomes my painful doty to apprise you that the fatal moment of your dis. solution is " drawing Very near. You have been convicted oil the clearest evidence of breaking into the dwelling bouse of the prosecutor, a poor working man, and stealing from him a considerable quantity of property. This id a great offence, and I regret to say it is au increasing offence, and, painful as it is to" me to leave a fellow creature for execution, I have before found it necessary lo leave one for a similar offence, aud also deem it necessary lo leave you to a similar fate, for a more aggravated offence ihan ynur's has not come within my knowledge. It may be said it is a hard case that a man should die for stealing a small sum ; but it should he recollected that a small sum to a poor man is a comparatively greater loss than the large sum of a rich man : the poor man too, being obliged to go about his work and all bis business himself, cannot protect his property as the rich may ; and if the poor man it protect his property the law should endeavour to do it for him ; it is therefore' provided that cases like trie present should he capitally dealt with. I am very sorry, hut your's is an aggravated case : the prosecutor had employed you, and taken you into his bouse; he bad let you come in; perhaps you then saw where he kept his little property ; and you robbed him of his all. You appear, from your defence, to know that if you had been seen breaking into his house, yon would have been capitally convicted ; but yo'ur wily tale was disproved, and you will find, as many others have done, that you are mistaken in your law , for, independent uf llie break- ing into the bouse, your stealing the property is a capital felony. I recommend you to make the best use of the short time you have to live. You will have the assistance of a Reverend Clergyman better qualified than me to admonish you as to your awful situation. I, therefore, implore you to pass yourshort term of life iu earliest supplication to the throne of Divine Mercy ; nothing remaining for me but to pass upon you the sentence of the law, iu hope that others may be warned by your fate to leave off their evil practices. The sentence is, that you be taken from hence to the place from whence you came, and thence, ut the usual lime to the usual place of execution, and may the God of all mercies have compassion on your soul1" RICHARD HOWELLS, aged 50, was indicted for w ilfully and maliciously setting fire to a barn and buildings belonging to Mr. Charles Edwards, of The Gam, iu the parish ofClun, on the night of the 2lst of June last. Mr. Edwards, the prosecutor, stated that thf- prisoner was a pauper belonging- to the parish of Clun,. und led a wandering sort of life, hilt never was John Fleming, at Cold Hatton, lowborn he had been a servant, aiid stealing a pair of leggings, and some bread aud cheese. WILLIAM CLARKE, aged 55, was indicted for stealing nil in foal diaught mare, the property of Mr. W. Shingler, of Aldertoii— It appeared iu evidence thai, on the night of the 3d December lust, all Mr. Shiugler's horses were safe in the stable ; iu the morning tile tnare in question was missing, together with li collar, bridle, and bailies.— Mr. Robert Moore, of Moreton Say, deposed; that on the morning of tile 4th December lie saw the prisoner come by his bouse riding the mare iu question, and having often seen him ride horses that way, be had some suspicion that he bad stolen tlie mare; lie asked the prisoner where he was going, and he replied that he was taking the mare to Tarpoley, for his master bad sold her to a person there ; Mr. Moore then inked liiilf wily lie took her with a bridle, collar, aud flumes ; and lie replied, that his Inus'ler had lind a sale, and had sold lliem with the mare. Mr. Moore said to him, your master, I think, often lias sales ; and then tool, him into custody.— Mr. i Bate, a neighbour of Mr. Sliingler's. came to Moreton | Say, in pursuit of the thief, when Mr. Moore showed I him the mure, which Mr. II. immediately identified j as the properly of Mr. Shiugler. As the prisoner win Oil the road from Mr. Moore's, In custody, lie heard the children' cry ; neither do you tell them tiiat your mistress said any thing to you." Witness had previously mentioned the circumstances to the other servants. Witness told the truth as to the above circumstances, at the Coroner's Inquest, and prisoner afterwards said to her, " What did you tell that fot ? Did not I tell you not to tell." On her cross- examination, she said her mistress had been brewidg aud baking on the day of her death ; and in j the course of her examination, she was going to mention something that the deceased had said to her it was common for insanity to run In a family, though he was not aware of any marks by which a predispo- sition to hereditary insanity could hi- traced iu a person's countenance. He knew that a brother of the prisoner's had been under his father's care as a lunatic. JOHN NEVVTOX, ofSedglev, uncle to the prisoner, deposed loan uncle of Ihe prisoner's ( by the mother's side) having died insane; also of two more distant relations of prisoner's ( hy the mother's side) having been insane, one of whom died iu that state. In answer to a question by the Judge, lie said he had known the prisoner from his birth, but he never knew him to be insane. Seven other witnesses were called on the part of the prisoner, most of whom had lived in the service on the night of her death ; bat the Judge said that of the prisoner, or in that of bis lather w hen the such discourse on the part of the wife could not be : prisoner was a voting man. They expressed their absent from his parish a year together ; that he ployed him in weeding of other work ahoutdlie holise or ground whenever lie came there, always giving j confessed that he stole the' mure, and said lie should him victuals, and letting him sleep iu his barn, and j | 1(, banged for it.— The Jury immediately returned a giving him a rug to cover him; tlmt be came to prosecutor's bouse on the lisill of June, and was received kindly as usual; on the li) lh of June, prose- cutor employed him iu gathering turfs oil tlie ad- jacent common to burn for manure; on the 20th lie employed him in stocking potatoes, and at night he asked him bow much he bad done, and he replied 9 rows; on the 21st of June, prisoner was again em- ployed stocking potatoes, and at night when til sup- per, prosecutor again asked him how liiuch lie had done, when tie replied 7 rows, aud prosecutor said, jokingly, to him, " Richard, thou gette. t worse." Nothing more was saiil, hut prisoner looked sulky, and shortly after went out in an angry way, and prosecutor thought he was going to his lodging iu tile barn; this was soon after9 o'clock, and just as tlie prisoner Went out, Mr. Rees Junes, a friend of prosecutor's, Came in ; the family all went to bed SlMikflt tr. ll • ' iikrtilt tmlr nttct f i. ri f l. aii iv £.

It appeared in evidence that the mare had been taken out of a field at Shelton on the night of the 9th of October.-— Some neighbours of the prisoner's having, a few days after, seen a mare on his premises, and j having also noticed an advertisement of the mare 1 stolen, gave information to the prosecutor, who went to prisoner's house and made some inquiries; the j prisoner seemed much confused, but took him to the i mare in a field by the house; the prosecutor imme- j diately knew his mare, though her mane had been j cut, her tail docked, her heels trimmed, and some j saddle marks blacked over,- since he had lost her. ; The prisoner told the prosecutor he bought her at j Hay Fair on the 10th October, but produced no evidence of that fact; and on being brought in custody to. Shrewsbury, endeavoured to escape.— He was found Guilty. THOMAS JONF. S, aged 17, was indicted for the manslaughter of William Matthews, at Melverley — It appeared in evidence, that, on the 16th September, the prisoner, deceased,' and others, were celebrating the hat vest- home of Mr. Roberts, of Melverley; the parties were all iu liquor; and a fight took place between the prisoner's father and a man named Evans. Matthews was anxious to separate the com- received in evidence against the husband JQLIA^ OLIVER, was apprentice to the prisoner ; opinion that, when they lived with him, he was not fight in his mind.

One witness had . setfn him vapour his fists in a the kitchen floor, before the fire. She confirmed the j glass, and against a wall, but admitted that he did testimony of Mary Jones as to the dreadful state of l not strike either glass or wall. Another said he had her mistress,' and further added that tlie lip of the ] seen him ride through Severn when the river was deceased was cut, and her one eye black WILLIAM HACHE, servant to the prisoner, went to | high, and over one of his meadows when it was flooded ; on the latter occasion, the horse threw him bed before eight o'clock on the22d January : he soon j into the water and came home without him ; but the afterwards heard one of ( he children cry, thought j witness admitted that by riding through the river, ' | —~ ' 1 -•'-- < ^ e prisoner saved three miles, and that when the horse threw him iu his flooded field, he got out of the water and came home safe. Another witness once knew him fire off a gun in the night, of which pri- soner told him next day he wasasleep when he did it. Mr. VACGHAN, surgeon, of Shrewsbury, who hap- pened to be in Court, was now sworn on the part of the defence. He expressed his decided opinion, that, if proper attention, exertion, and t; kili had been used in the case of Mrs. N. the hemorrhage mioht somebody was whipping it, and went to sleep He was afterwards called up by his master, who toid him he must go down to his mt9tress directly. He found her in the state described by the former witnesses: the deceased said; " God bless you, Will, I take my leave of you/' Tfe heard prisoner sav, after her death, he would give all the world for her again. j SARAH LI. OYD deposed, that on the night of the 22d January Mr. Newton came to her house in Bridgnorth, and told her she must come to his house directly, for the mistress was very ill: she asked what was the matter, and he said, bis wife was in the same way as before. She went with Mr. N. who, on the road, said, if he had such . hills brought in, he could not pay his rent, and said something else about a bill. When witness catne 1o the house, she found Mrs. N. in the situation described by former wit- nesses; assisted iu putting her to bed. Some time after she was put in bed, the prisoner came into the room, and witness said Mrs. N. was very ill ; he re- plied, iv she might thank herself for that, for having billed ;" witness told him to say w httt he had to say in the morning, arid go to bed. Before he went to i bed, and after Mrs. X. was up stairs, witness told : prisoner he must s » nd for a doctor ; he said he would the tire | on getting up they found the whole range of buildings (' 27 yards long), on . fire front one end to the other, the fire having evidently commenced at the further end of the buildings from the house, and the whole buildings, with their entire contents*, excepting a waggon, were totally consumed ; and/. prosecutor then thought the prisoner must have perished in the flames. The prosecutor further stated, that on the 19th of June, after the turfs had been gathered, they were placed in a heap on the common, about 200 yards from the barn, and prospcutnr himself set fire to them ; that they burnt very rapidly at first, aud by the next day were a mere heap of apparent ashes, but the fire continued smouldering inside; that there vvas some wind on the night of the 21st, but it wins in such a direction that it could not blow fire from the turf heap to the buildings. In consequence of some remarks made by Mr. Itoes Jones as to the appenniace of the prisoner when he met him going out of the house at. nig ht, the prosecutor was indueed to go and examine the turf heap early in the morning after the fire, iu company with other persons, w hen he observed on the heap the print of the~ fore part of a man's left shoe, nailed in a peculiar manner; there was also, the mark of a stick having been poked into the heap iu the same left side direction, as if a person had been leaning rtpou it to reach fire out of the centre of the heap from a hole which appeared to have been made there with a spade. And it appeared by the evidence of the prosecutor, a shoemaker, and other witnesses, that there were spades in that part of the barn where the prisoner slept previous to the fire f that the prisoner always walked with a large stick; and that the print on the turf heap exactly cor res. ponded with the fore- part of the left shoe WQVII by the prisoner. Suspicion having alighted on the prisoner, KfVreh was made after him, it being found that he had absconded on the night of the fire, and he never having- left Mr. Edwards's on any former oceasf'on. Ht night, although he would frequently come there, and go away after staying a few days. From the appearance and behaviour of the prisoner a question arose as to his sanity, and to this end several witnesses for the prosecution w. ere examined with much care by the Judge: they all agreed in opinion that he knew right from wrong, anu one or two of them expressed an opinion that be was of a roguish disposition. Having absconded immediately on the fire taking place, he was not apprehended for about 6 months, but several of the witnesses had, in that interval, seen him and taxed him with the of- fence : to one of these he . said he had slept at The Graig ( 3 miles from Mr. Edwards) on the night of the fire, and was in the house at The Graig at 9 j o'clock that night ; lie also told the same witness that ! he did not owe Mr. Edwards so much ill w'ill as to set his barn on fire ; and oh the witness mentioning this circumstance in Court, the prisoner contradicted and examined him on the point. To others lie had denied the crime, ami evinced si perfect knowledge of its consequences if proved against him;. and had ob- served to one that he had once travelled- nearly' 400 miles pretending to be deaf and dumb, and had gained more by that than by any other course lie had not fetch one ; and witness said if he would not go, she would go herself; she then sent William Baebe, and he went to Mr. Hall's, whose assistant, Mr. Barber, came. By Mr. Barber's directions, she ap- plied vinegar and water to the principal seat of injury. The prisoner was not there, but while Mr. B. was in the house, she went and asked prison* r what he injured the face of Mrs. N. with, and he said with his hand. Mrs. N. died between 12and 1 o'clock, and when she was dead, witness told the batants, and took hold of a pikel, saying he Would run it through the prisoner's father ; on this, pri- soner took the pikel from Matthews ; Matthews then got- a pikel handle, and prisoner endeavoured to take that from him also ; a scuffle ensued between pri- soner and deceased,-. and they both fell; when on the ground, deceased kicked prisoner, and prison* languished some days, and then died.— Mr. Coch rane, surgeon, who examined the body, said he had no doubt the death of the deceased was caused by the kick given by the prisoner, as the deceased was previously ruptured in that part of his body, though he did not think the kick would have caused death but for that circumstance.— The prisoner's master gave him an excellent character.— The Jury found him guilty ; but, under the circumstances, his Lord- ship, after a suitable admonition on the evil effects of drunkenness^ and - lakiug into consideration the imprisonment already undergone, directed that the prisoner, after paying a fine of one shilling, should be discharged. SAllAH SANDAL was convicted* on very satis- factory testimony, of knowingly tittering a counter- feit half- crown in DraUon Market, and of having other counterfeit half- crowns in her possession.— She was sentenced to six months' imprisonment, and to find two sureties iu £ 20 each for her further good behaviour for 6 months. ~ might have been stopped, and life preserved. After a long examination on the surgical parts of the case, in which Mr V. expressed himself with great clearness and ability, he stated that the injt. ry which was the proximate occasion of Mrs. N.' s death was most likely inflicted by external violence. The JtJDGK then recalled Sar5- h Lloyd, Mr. Colev, and Mr. Edwards. He also called Mr. Hall, surgeon, of Bridgnorth. Sarah Lloyd stated that she saw nothing on the night of Mrs. N.' s death, that led her to suppose the prisoner was insane. Mr. Coley said he attended prisoner's family, in a medical capacity, from* 1813 to 1821, and neversav? the slightest symptom- of insanity in the prisoner. Witness cannot say that he can decide, bv any marks of the countenance, that a person has an hereditary predisposition to insanity : when tinder the paVoxysm of insanity, the countenance of a person woald in- dicate the presence of the disease. Mr. Hall, who succeeded Mr. Coley in the medical attendance of the prisoner's family," said he never saw in him any symptom of insanity whatever. Mr. George Edwards said, that in the course of the evening of the 22d Januarx, there were 5 or 6 Small jugs of the prisoner's ale drank, but a third person ( bailiff to a neighbouring gent- leman) partook of this liquor. Witness considered that when he came awav, both himself aud the prisoner were very ^ ober ; and prisoner appeared to him to be a man in his senaea that afternoon. The case being closed, the Learned Judge stated the law of it to the Jury, with n clearmss that ex- cited the admiration of a most crowded Court. He observed that passion iu such eases. was not in the protection of the law, unless the act was momentary; and on this pojmt he referred them to the evidence of Mr. Edwards ( to whose humane conduct he paid GBORQR LITTLEPOKT), was cowman to the prisoner, a high and deserved compliment), to the evidence of ii the nio- ht of the 99d Jnnonrv: be went to . had the prisoner's servants, atid others, who had ahservfd his conduct on the afternoon in question. To mak< » good the plea of lunacy, it was necessary for the prisoner's Uefence lo prove that he was in a state of insanity at the time the act wys committed; but nothing of this kind had been shewn. It had been shewn that the prisoner certainly had oddities and eccentricities ; he may be a rash man; . but it was proved also, that when he rode through tlie water be had sense enough to enable him to get hente safe; and when he vapoured at the glass or the wall, he neither broke the one nor hurt bis knuckles against the other. If such premises were to be Conclusive of a man's insanity, then a number of persons, as capa- ble of knowingand judging right as any on^ in that Court, were completely lawless in the world. The is not dead ; she has either fainted away, or iu a fit. 1 Witness said, u She is dead, loo true to make a lie on." Prisoner went down stairs and said he'd fetch the Doctor. Witness assisted in laying out the hotly, and now described the injuries. She afterwards was about to wash Mrs. N.' s eiothes, but the prisoner ! Would not let her; she observed that the clothes were and that there was no mark of soil on them. Mrs. Newton was sometimes passionate, but in ge- neral mild and obedifnt„ On the night of the 22d January, he went to bed about a quarter before eight; was called up by the prisoner; and when he came down he found Mrs. Newton in the situation before described. That night, the witness saw the prisoner in the coal- yanl, where the prisoner asked Bache if his mistress was dead ; Bache replied that- she wa's,- on which the prisoner said, " I gave her two or three blows, but I gave her no violent blow to kill her." ANN JONES, is mother to the witness Mary Jones.— Mrs. Jones- deposed, that after her daughter- had given evidence before the Coroner's Inquest, she went with her to the prisoner's room, when the prisoner asked her daughter what she had told the Gentlemen ; the girl replied, she had told them that, when four fields from the house, she heard the chil Trial of John Newton, for Murder. JOHN NEWTON, aged 40, a farmer, of Severn Hall, near Bridgnorth, was indicted for the wilful murder of Sarah Newton, his wife, hy striking, beating, and kicking her, on the 22d of January last. Th? prisoner pleaded u Not Guilty and the Jury was sworn. Mr. PEARSON, for the prosecution, stated the case to the Jnrv, with great feeling anil clearness, as detailed in live following evidence. Mr. GEORGE EDWARDS deposed, that he is a tin- man and brazier, in Bridgnorth, and occasionally now ledge I supplied the prisoner's family with articles that he 1 sold. OM the 22d of January, he took his bill to Severn Hall, found Mr. Newton at home, and pre- sented it. The prisoner invited hitn into the par- lour, looked over his bill, and remarked upon the dren cry, " Oh, dear daddy, dtmna !" Prisoner said, ; opinion of the Surgeon to the Gaol, that hs could HENRY BOURKE ( an Iri& hman), aj^ ed 27, was c'otjvicted of breaking into the cottage of Samuel Kgerton, at Peplow, iu the dav- time, no'person being therein-,, on. The frill August last, and stealing thereout several articles of wearing apparel. It appeared in eyidence that the prosecutor and his wife had gone out to harvest work, when the robbery was com- mitted, and the prisoner was apprehended in lodging- house at Prees with the stolen property in bis possession. JOHN BLACKMAN, aged 17, was convicted of stealing, property to an extensive amount, belonging to Miss Jane Hill, who resided in the house of her uncle, the Rev. Brian Hill, at Weston. It appeared from the testimony of the Rev. Brian Hill, that the prisoner entered into that gentleman': service in ihe year 1820, and continued, in it till May, 1821, when he left.' In the month of November he returned to Weston in a destitute state, and said he was come to apply to his parish. The~ circumstance being mentioned to Mr. Hill, that gentleman most kindly sent for him, ami again took him into his service. In consequence of some suspicion arising, Mr. Hill, on the night of the 28th December last went to the prisoner's bed room, where he found the prisoner in bed with his clothes on, excepting his coat and shoes. On examining the prisoner's box, £ 38 in notes, a purse, a silver pencil case, and a silver thimble were found, which the prisoner con fesaed were the property of Miss Jane Hill, aud that be had taken them from a desk ou the table in the drawing room. It appeared from the evidence of Miss Jane Hill, that some days ptior lo the prisoner's box being searched, she had missed the key of her desk, and which she has never seen since ; that she had caused the desk to he opened, when she discovered that, the property afterwards found in the prisoner's box had been stolen, together with other monies to a much larger amount. The case was proved in the most clear manner; and the jury having immediately returned a verdict of Guilty, Miss Jane Hill addressed his Lordship, expressing her hope that, on account of the pri- adopted. Ail the witnesses concurred in describing | charge of 3?. for a lantern, by saying he had given SAMUEL GRIFFITHS, a boy 16 years of age, was indicted for stealing a wether sheep, the pro- perty of Mrs. Sarah Harris, widow.— It. appeared from the testimony of John Humphreys, shepherd to the prosecutrix, that the fences of his mistress haying been plundered and destroyed, he was up ou the night of the 26th February watching them; when he saw the prisoner, with a sister who has absconded, drive the sheep into a corner, and caught them in the act of tying the legs together of the one iu question ; he seized the prisoner immediately, together with the cord in his possession, and he was committed.— The prisoner ( a bold- faced young villain) said he vvas only going to get some broom to make a besom, and the cord was to tie it up; that, in crossing the field, the sheep in question tumbled on its back ; that he and his sister were putting it on its feet when the shep- herd seized him; and that the shepherd offered to liberate him if lie would, give evidence against his father.— The Jury disbelieved the prisoner's tale, aud he vvas found Guilty. THOMAS WARD, aged 47, was convicted of stealing a quantity of linen, the property of Mr. Francis Marston, of Aston, and of Mr. Richard Marston, of Ludlow.— It appeared from the testimony of Edward Morris, waggoner to Mr. F. Marston, that on the 3d of February he went with his master's waggon for coals; that in Ludlow he received a bundle of linen from Mr. R. Mars- ton, which he put in a hag in the tail of the, waggon; that, after be left Ludlow-, for greater security he made a hollow in the top of the load of coals, and placed the bag and linen therein; that the night was dark; he missed the bag near Onibury, on his road home; that it was afterwards found, with the linen, & e. in a chest in the prisoner's house ; and that, from its position in the load, it could not have removed from the waggon without hands. The prisoner said he found the bag and linen in the road. Miss Elizabeth Marston, and a female servant, identified the linen, and shewed that the marks of Mr. Marston's name- had been cut out of it since it had been missed from the waggon, the places where the marks had been having been afterwards sewn Up. The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to be transported for 7 years. JAMES ROBINSON, aged 27, was convicted of stealing two bridles and a leather housing, the pro- perty of Mr. John Jones, of the parish of Alveley.— The prisoner, it appeared, had been taken up at Stourbridge, at a lodging house, on suspicion of having stolen the articles in question, which were then in his possession ; and Mr. Jones having claimed them, he was committed. The constable of Stourbridge stated that the prisoner was an old offender, and he was sentenced to be transported for seven years. JOHN JONES, aged 26, pleaded Guilty to a charge of having stolen a hat, value two shillings, from the house of T. F. Dukes, Esq. of Shrewsbury, aud was- sentenced to one week's imprisonment. He had been convicted before ; and the Judge remarked, that his present merciful sentence was solely owing to his Lordship's belief that he was urged to the crime by distress, as he had abstained from taking him as a vagabondizing character, who spent most of ; his time begging about the country, and that he could do work, but did not like it. The prisoner stated, in the course of his trial, that his back had been broken, when he w*'. s three years old, by a fall, but the Surgeon to the GaoJ negatived this statement. Mr. F. Marston, of Aston, the Chaplain to the Gaol, the Surgeon to the Gaol, and the Gaoler, con- curred in representing the prisoner as an idiot. The Gaoler said he had been iu prison before on a charge of vagrancy and for breaking the windows of CI tin church. The Learned Judge stated the law of the case, and contrasted the evidence with great minuteness, to thb Jury : He observed that ibe prisoner hud been represented as an idiot, but that definition was cer- tainly not correct in this case, for an idiot was merely a figure of a man without a ray of intellect; if the his wife the money to pay for that; he seemed iu a passion, said she had run him iu debt at different times and indifferent places,, and observed he would give her « a thrashing- for it. Prisoner went out of the parlour and called his wife, who came in; lie then taxed her about the lantern ; she said nothing, but seemed to admit the fact, and'left the room. Prisoner asked witness to take a jug of beer ; witness stayed some time ( from about, half- past two to nearly eight o'clock); prisoner seemed much hurt at the charge in the bill, and again said be would beat her; witness advised bun not, ridiculed the idea of beating her for so simple a thing, and said, if he would give What did yon tell theni that for? Did not I tell you not to say so?" Witness said, " Mr. Newton, what would you have her say, Sir?" He replied, " She could have choosed to have said it, if she had had a mind." Witness was afterwards in the kitchen, when one of the prisoner's little boys said to her, u Nanny, tliy mammy lay down here after my dad beat her " The prisoner was present, and Said to the child, 14 Hush, hush, don't talk about your mammy." Mr. JAM? 3 BARBER ( who'complained of indisposi- tion) is a surgeon, and an assistant to Mr. Hall, of Bridgnorth ; was called to Mrs. Newton on the 22d of January; saw a cut on her lip, and a black eye; examined her gown, but did not examine any other part of her clothes ; directed the application of vinegar and water to the seat of bleeding, but could not then form any accurate opinion as to the cause of hemorrhage, because he made no local examination before lie left the patient, who was not then dead. The Learned Judge told the witness he thought it was not customary for Medical Gentlemen, when called in, to leave their patients id a state of danger discover an hereditary predisposition to insanity by looking at a man's countenance, his Lords hip' * co » side red to be disproved by fact and evidence; and he also said, that if, on the present- occasion, the jury were satisfied that the prisoner had been at some time insane, yet if they were satisfied that th? atl with which he was charged was done in a lucid in- terval, they were bound to find him guilty It bad been set up in defence, that the life of the deceased might have been preserved, if pnij er medical at- tention had been paid, ami he felt scrry to say that he thought there had been a want of'atti u'tton in this case, as opinions had certainly beep expressed, that bv extraordinary skill and attention the life of Mrs. N. might possibly have been preserved ; hut this would not prevent the consequences to the pri- soner, for the law did not require, in order to con- vict a man, that the wound which he hnd inflicted was necessarily fatal, but it held that if lieuth followed a medicable wound, the person who caused that death must answer for the loss of life he had occa- sioned. II ibisi were not ihe ca « e, few snch crimes , .. -..„.. would lie punished, for bow seldom was assistance without waiting the result, or without ascertaining i to ', e bad at the moment of injury, and how often tl. e nature of their injury or disorder. The witness would prisoners prove that the injury they had in- said, he considered Mrs. N. at the time in a very dangerous state; lie did not apply any bandage or pressure, because he thought it was ton late. Im- pulse being at 31), and she fast sinking to the grave. Witness also stated that afterwards, on the'same night, between 1 and ' 2 o'clock, lie was called up by Mr. N. who said, be wished Mr. Hall to come and spe bis wife, as she vvas very ill, and he thought she would die; Mr. Hall was ill, and could not go; ami him the bill lie would erase llie article out, sooner I witness diil not go, as be told Mr. N. lie thought all " had been done that could be done;, tint he gave a bottle of medicine to the prisoner, who look it with him. Witness wfis present with Mr. Coley, al the than there should beany words about it. About an hour before witness left the prisoner's, lie had occasion to go through the kitchen, where he saw Mrs. Nr. nursing one of the children by the tire; she seemed low, but not unwell ; he shook hands with prisoner was a man of disordered mind, he might be i her, and told her lo keep her spirits up. Previous to termed a lunatic, but whether lie came under ibis' witness leaving, prisoner had told him thut- Mrs. was. in the family way, and witness had obtained a promise from prisoner " that lie would not beat her. As witness was going out through the kitchen to go home, he did not see Mrs. Newtotl, I1 lit, supposing she wns thereat- outs, he said, in ii loud tone, Good night, Sirs. Newton;" upon which the prisoner dieted was toil unavoidably fatal, " lli's Lordship then recapitulated the evidence to the Jury ; and, in eon. elusion, observed lo them, ih. it if they bail a donlit on Hie subject, they should give Ibe prisoner ifio benefit of it; hut if they considered the case clearlv proved against him, and that he was at the time in'n slate of mind to be responsible for the net he bad committed, then, however painful it might he to their feelings, they must do tlieir duty to theif country, and fearlessly return that verdict which their consciences dictated. The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of (.' KILTY.— The prisoner was then asked examination of Mrs. N.' s body after death", and be i " hat he bad to say w by sentence of death should not thinks the injury that caused' her death must have I '"' P!, « ed on hiiu? lie replied,—" It was never i been inflicted by external violence, been iu the profession nine years. Witness hnd j tended to do any thing of the sort.' Mr. JUSTICE RUST, after a short ... pause, passed Mr. Corey, surgeon, of Bridgnorth, opened the ' senience of death on the prisoner, as follows.— body of Mrs. New ton after death, and he now j John Newton : you have been convicted, upon < t e described the appearances to the Court and Jury I clearest and most satisfactory evidence, of the most in a most clear and satisfactory manner.

Another servant of Mr. Smith's deposed that the prisoner came to him that morning, and inquired if he had heard of any thing being found in the tnixen, for that he had hid something there, and on his going* to fetch it away, it was gone. It was also proved that the apron found round the pewter vvas the prisoner's, who is a tinker, and that lie had been seen at Mr. Jones's house enquiring for work a few evenings before the robbery. MARGARET JONES was convicted, on the clearest testimony, of stealing a waistcoat. piece and some calico, in the shop of Mr. Thomas Hilditcb, mercer, of Oswestry, and vvas sentenced to six months' imprisonment. AARON WELSH was convicted of stealing a new lantern and a tin tea- kettle from the shop of Mrs. Susannah Parker, of Broseley, who dealt in those articles, and by whom the prisoner was employed as a nailor. He was sentenced to 6 months' imprison- ment. SUSANNAH BROOME was indicted for stealing a quantity of g rocery articles, value 38s. rn the house of Joseph Cattrak, shopkeeper, of Higley.— The prisoner vvas taken in' the fact, and the articles found on her. When called upon to say if she had any defence, she said the prosecutor had frequently given her money and drink to induce her to come to his house, where, on such inducement, nil improper connection had ofteif taken place between Them — The Judge enquired of the prosecutor, an elderly looking bachelor, as to these facts, when he admitted that such improprieties had taken place, but not for five months previous to the robbery.—' The prisoner vvas found guilty ; and his Lordship said, under the circumstances, he should only sentence her to one weekV hard labour; and lie would certainly not allow the prosecutor any expenses : it was not fittin her being pregnant.) Witness took him to Mr. Hall's kitchen door, and then returned to his bed, as he was only partly dressed. Witness was not called at the Coroner's Inquest, and . did not see prisoner again, until the funeral of Mrs. Newton, to which he was invited bv letter. MARY JONF. S deposed that she was servant in Mr. in opinion with Mr. Coley as to the cause of Mrs; N/ i death. 1 si answer to questions from the Judge, Mr. Humphreys said, as a medical man, in a case where a patient was exhausted by loss of blood, the first operation would be to stop the bleeding and to endea- vour to restore nature. If called in, iie should cer- tainly have ascertained from what laceration or other cause the bleeding proceeded : if from rupture of the external vessels, be should certainlv have endea- Newton's family, where she bad lived almost three \ vonred to stop it. He certainly should have stopped years. On the evening that her mistress died she | the hemorrhage, if possible, and not have gone away vvas sent by her of an errand across the Severn, about j without making aii examination. He has know n four o'clock ; her mistress at that time appeared low, but had no particular' illness, though she was five or six months gone iu the family way. Witness returned over the Severn, at the ferry, about eight o'clock ; the river is about six fields from Mr. Newr ton's house, and when witness was about four fields from it, the night being clear and calm, she distinctly beard aery that came from towards Severn Hall, and it was Mr. New. top's' children crying, 44 Oh ! dear dnddy, dumia!" Witness ran till she got to the house, where she found her mistress laying on the kitchen floor, bleeding dreadfully, through her petti- coats and clothes, above her knees. Julia Oliver, the apprentice girl, then came in, and the prisoner went to Bridgnorth, about two miles off, to fetch Sarah Lloyd, who was Mrs. N.' s nurse on her lyings„ in, and used to come to work at the house. William Bacbe, the servant, c? iine in, and Mrs, N. took him by the hand, shook hands with him, and said, " God bless you." Mr, Newton catne in, and said to his wife, i4 Which was the rogue now, you or me?" When Sarah Lloyd came, she and witness and Julia Oliver raised Mrs. N." up, and carried her to bed. After she was in bed, the prisoner went into her room ( while witness whs warming a bed for him in ( the next room) and abused her. When her mistress' was dead,- Mr. N. was told of it by Sarah Lioyd ; he j persons considered iu a dangerous slate recover when the pulse was as low as 30, The surgical gentlemen above- named, underwent a long examination as to the nature ami consequences of such an injury as that hy which Mrs, N.' s death was occasioned. The Prisoner, being called upon for his defence, said, " I was iu liquor, and she struck me first. What I did was in a passion, and I diil not think unv harm." Mr HEWITT, apothecary to the Gaol, deposed, that on the first and second days of prisoner's con- finement in Gaol, lie laboured under a great dejec- tion of spirits; on the third day be was very ineo- hei- enl, and became so turbulent, that it was neces- sary lo confine his hands and legs, and lo place him under the care of three men. Witness certainlv then considered him insane, and, from bis countenance, believed be had an hereditary predisposition to mad ness Witness administered medicines to allav the irritation, which had the desired effect. The witness underwent a long cross- examination, and admitted that he had never made lunacy his particular sludy, nor, until lie attended the Gaoi, had lie had lunatic patients committed lo his peculiar care. Mr. BKOWN, surgeon, of Bridgnorth, deposed that his father liud kept a Lunatic Asylum, Witness said « be being too in that slate which called for increased kindness and attention 011 your part, you put your brnfal threat ill execution.
