On his representations, however, that he had a pro- perty in the funds, he, after his discharge from the King's Bench, obtained credit to a considerable amount from several respectable tradesmen at Bridgnorth, who have detained him in prison since 1822, and who now opposed ? iis discharge ; but their opposition failed, as there waS no . . sufficient proof of his having contracted the debts fraudu. 3efttly.—- Aftef he was committed to our gaol, his creditors were offered ( byhis friends) 10s.. in the pound, and v.- ft en he had been a year and half in prison, they were offered 6s. in the pound and half the law expenses; but both these offers had been refused.

" I ara .. exceedingly anxious to see you privately for a, few minutes, as I a ui a ware, of something that may tend very much- to. your advantage, if you will attend to it. 1 do it for your Own- good, being anxious for your welfare, and hope you will not fail to attend to* my note. Be good enough to write a line, and . seud it to Ellesmere. to the carte of Jones's daughter, and say where I shall see you on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday next, and at what liotir; N only say where, and I will meet you near your own house, to save you trouble. My object is to save you much. proba. ble trouble, and the sooner I see you the better; if possible, on Sunday. " Your'a, sincerely, JOHN MYTTOX." " P. S. Say exactly the hour, and where 1 shall see you, for I have private reasons for wishing not to be seen; so let it be at the dusk of the evening." 44 This letter was enclosed iu one from Miss Eli- zabeth Jones, of the Biack Lion, . which I will also read to you. It begins — " My dear i\ fary,- - l hope you are . well, as likewise Mr. Rogers, I shall lie glad to see you at Ellesmere You must send an answer back to tbe enclosed letter aud direct U to me, but when you have read it be sure burn it." Mr. Taunton, for the defendant, here objected to any letters from Miss Jnhes being read,; they having nothing to do with the cause. 41 These, letters ( said Mr. Campbell) were deli-, vered to Mrs. Rogers when the plaintiff was from home, but she acted as a virtuous wife ought to act, she shewed the iftters to her husband. His feelings - Were naturally roused to think of being insulted iu such a manner, and by a person whom be bad treated with hospitality. 1 ask you, gentlemen, what would be your feelings o; i such an occasion, ilis feelings he expressed to Jones and to others of his friends, aud he threatened him with redress. It became known to ' Mr. Mytton that her husband bad seen the letier, aud was highly enraged. He, therefoie, wrote a letter to Thomas Lloyd, Esq. of Osbaston, uiicle to the plaintiff, by which he would pe. suade you that the only object he had in view vvas the good of her husband : not to his injury, but to his honour and advantage.—- This letter is dated 11th February, 1824, and runs thus— " Dear Lloyd- I am surprised to find from Jones, of Ellfsmere, that Mr. Rogers, of Sandford, i* in an extrava- gant rage with me for writing to his wife, wishing- to see her; as 1 was aware that ne and another ( his companion) were more th « n suspected of shooting at night iu Sand- ford Pool- tail.. 44 1 have spoken to him not perhaps 3 times in my life, but have remembered his wife many vears, though 1 can- not remember to have spoken toiler before her marriage, winch has al way's been in her own house, where, when • with the hounds, she was 3 or 4 times good enough to give jne a draft of ale, . and some bread and cheese. In conse- quence of that 1 was determnu'd to apprise her of the danger lie was iu iu case of detection in shooting at night, which he may not be aware ie punishable by transportation. I sliould not wish it known to the person watching that I prevented detection of any act of the kind. I wished'to caution her as quietly as possible.— I found, however, that Mr. Kenvon was aware of his being so employed; at least suspected; and told Mr lvenyon, if he would not proceed against him. I would tike care. he did not do so tgain; especially as I heard he was leaving the country. " 1 likewise spoke to Mr. Bridge man, who I conclude, has cautioned a young man at Ivnockin to avoid such practices in future ; 1 hear from Jones he was at your house, and to you, as. arelatio; i, I t. aKe the trouble of explaining-, apolo- gising for the iength" of this. " If he chooses to remain iu the style of extravagant , rage Jones describes, 1 can't help it: he may thank him- self for liis uneasiness, as 1 believe Mrs. Rogers will, if asked, declare that neither by word or deed did I ever in . berprese'nee what all the - world was not welcome to witness. " Excuse the trouble 1 give you, write, me a line by Jonts, aud believe. ine, 44 Your's, faitbfullv, JOHN MTTTOX. 44 Flahfon, Feb. 11 M, 1824." < k If Mr. My. tton had any regard for Mr. Rogers, what would his conduct have been. It is a pure . Invention that he had been shotting pheasants. If Mr. Mytton bad any friendship for Mr. Rogers, would he not have gone and said, Rogers you have . done wrung, I hear you have been shooting phea sauts at the pool- tail, 1 advise you to desist, or the Jaw will be put on you. If he eouid not have seen Rogers himself, would he not have written to him, and not to Mrs. Rogers to alarm her. He does not; be is on ' fineWith tiie beauty of the woman,- and the ouly object was her ruin.. What, gentlemen, will */ ou thin* of a man who, having tailed in an attempt upon the wife, turns round upon the husband, and cays he lias committed an otlence for which he is liable to transportation. Mr. Myttoo was called Upon again and again to give up the author of such reports, and I challenge him to- day to prove it: let him call . Mr. fyeuvou, let him call the other ( gentleman he has named, and ask them wheth tiiey do not consider . he plaintiff a frugal, industri- ous man, who never. violated the laws of his country. 1 say t^ e allegation. is false. It is adding calumny to outrage ; and on . one occasion he used language too gross for me to use,— ami, before tbe. witness i called, I must request f he. ladies will leave the court — What damages, I would ask, are too large for an offence such as I have laid before you, and for which he says he will make noapology until he has accomplished his purpose ?" Wiiiiam Jones proved the letters produced wen the same he took to Mrs. Rogers. John Truss proved Mrs. Rogers being a beautiful aind.. attractive woman— the respectability in life of ihe defendant - and the letters being his hand, writing. [ Here the letters were read, and Mr Richards, for defendant, called his Lordship's at. tention to a variation in the letter written to Mr. Lloyd and tlje Record ; the words " Excuse th trouble I give you'' being left out, which, he con tended, was fatal, but they not being material, as relating to the libel, his Lordship over- ruled the objection.] This witness, on his cross examination admitted that he was a friend of ihe plaintiff, ati< when the action was first brought was clerk to the plaintiff's brother and then attorney ; that, durin. the time Mr. Mil ward Rogers was the attorney", the latter, for the plaintiff, and with his assent, con- sented to stay the proceeding on payment of costs and defendant making an apology, but not, as wit- ness said on his re- examination, unless the action against Jones was settled at the same time, and that Jones sliould give £ 5 worth of bread to the poor of Ellesmerc ; but this part as to giving the bread vvas afterwards abandoned by plaintiff. Here Mr. Justice Littledale asked if there were no terms on which it could be settled without going to a jury ; but Mr. Campbell, for plaintiff, said, 44 My Lord, we wish to take the opinion of a jury." The rule of the Court calling on defendant to shew cause why the plaintiff should not proceed to trial, and for Mr. Milvvard Rogers to shew cause why he should not pay the costs of the application, was then read, as was another rule of Court, by which it was ordered that the plaintiff should be at liberty to proceed to trial, that the Master should tax the costs of tbe application, and that. Mr. Mil ward Rogers should pay them as between attorney and client. Joseph Edwards—( On this witness being sworn, females were desired to withdraw)— He stated that lie was at Hereford races, aud after the race he vvas in the Coffee Room of the Hotel, where the de. fendant came aud had about three glasses of wine out of bis bottle. In the course of conversation, I lie subject - of this action was introduced, and defendant said he bad met Mr. Lloyd ( Osbaston) the other day, aud spoke to him, but'Mr. Lloyd was very cool, ami, as he ( defendant) thought, was going to cut him on account of this business of Mr. lingers'*. Witness said he Ibought the business wag gettled ; to which defendant replied he did not. know whether it was or not— he thought Rogers wanted an apology. ( Witness here added the expressions alluded toby Mr. Campbell, as before- mentioned). This closed the case on behalf of the plaintiff. Mr. Taunton then rose and said, 4| Gentlemen of the Jury, I rise to address you with more than ordinary anxiety ou this occasion, because my learned friend ( Mr. Campbell) has thought it neces- sary to travel much out of the record, and put the plaintiff's claim to damages upon a footing fo which by law he is not entitled ; and as Iknovv it is ex- tremely difficult for gentleirien in your situations to' disentangle the fair legal merits of the case from the artificial matter with which he has thought proper to interweave it, I feel a very considerable portion of anxiety, because I think it possible I may not succeed so far as I know I ought, and, if I do not, I hope that whatever ability may be want- ing in the advocate Will be supplied" by the learned Judge who will afterwards have to direct you ; for, Gentlemen, in explaining to you under what form ( if" any) the plaintiff is entitled to damages, it is necessary that I should inform von that at least seven eighths of my learned friend's address is altogether. foreign to the purpose ; and sure I am that in addressing a Jury so respectable in appear- ance as the one I novV sec before me, they will agree With me that causes of all sorts that are brought forward in a Court of Justice must be wholly decided by the evidence^ and by minds free from prejudice who will come to a conclusion that rests solely, on the real circumstances of the case. - My learned friend ( Mr. Campbell) put this action not as . for damages far a libel, but for a compensation on the part of the plaintiff for an atteiript to seduce his. wife. Gentlemen*,• with that iriatter, give me fave to inform you, you have nothing to do. I deny, and deny most explicitly} that there has been any such circumstance ; but if it had been undeniably proved j i t could not form any part of your damages. ' Gentlemen, there may and must ber in every society possessed of liberty of the right of speech and action, many instances of per- sonal misconduct of which the law cannot take cognizance; there must be many things done or attempted to be done, by different, individuals, which you or I, sitting in our roomS or conversing' with a" friend, have little, idea'of, and which, though we should reprobate them in private, it is impossible to punish in public— many things which every moral aud well- regulated mind would abhor, and which yet do not fall under the laSh of the law. It is true, that where an attempt to debauch a man's wife does succeed, the law in its wisdom, or its folly ( tliere are advocates for both opinions), does permit the party to bring his grievance into A Court of Justice; but where the attempt has only been made;, and has been repelled by ihe virtue cf the woman whose chastity has been the subject of attack, however you and I may reprobate or con- sider, sncb conduct flagitious, it cannot be brought into a Court of Justice, and therefore cannot swell the damages upon an account for which an action may be brought Whatever your opinion of the letter w ritten by the defendant to Mrs. Rogers may be, that you cannot take into the account in esti- mating the damages, if you shall- be of opinion the plaintiff is entitled to auy ; yon can only give damages for the letter addressed to Mr. Lloyd, as containing- a libel on the character of the plaintiff, and tjietfi you can only give such thimages as will recompense him for the degree of injurv which his character lias sustained. All the other matter which has been charged against Mr. Mytton, and which my learned friend ( Mr. Campbell) has ex- patiated on with so inudli ingenuity— all that he has said about a criminal attachment entertained for Mrs. Rogers— all that is of no purpose- to this action. — My learned, friend has endeavoured to excite a prejudice against the defendant, and to mix up the letters to which I allude ; he has read in evidence the letter to Mrs. Hogers. I acknowledge that the gentlemea, 1 hare got at last to that young toan ciple. It happened thai a gentleman of the name Mr. Edwards ; there is no accounting for tastes, I of Ashley came over the week preceding to obtain some like one sort of conversation, some another ; but I don't think the evidence of that witness M. is a young man ; lie , was at Hereford Races ; he won the gold cup, which I take to be a great prize ; he went into the coffee room elated with bis success, but; perhaps, more with tbe additional quantity of wine he lifl! a swallowed on the occasion ; well, lie comes in, sits down', takes a few glasses of wine, and they begiri talking about Mr. Rogers. I do not extenuate the language that witness has stated to have been used on that occasion ; but sure l am,, that such language never called for or would justify a repetition by that witness to any third from Mr. Or ton some papers he wanted for a law- will at suit, and on the Friday before the day fixed for the ! i11 swell the damages against^ Mr. Mytton. Mr. wedding Mr. Orton left Gwaeriynog, saying he was uneasy about the papers Mr. Ashley had had ; that, he would go after the decdi, but promised to return the next . day ( Saturday). Geutlemen, he did not return, rior ever cjame forward to fulfil his engagement; be bad the baseness to desert and abandon this unfortunate young lady. Her father had been absent from Gwaehynog for some days, and oh Saturday ( at Chester) a letter vvas put into his hands from& life defendant, the contents of which I will, read to you,; and though undoubtedly thefe t^ iayjiave b^ eih Occasions in which defendants have person afterwards. There are many things said in tc/ iij^ ucted Uiemsel yes with an erfhal \ vant of feel in conversation at races when gentlemen have . drank more wine than usual, wheu prudence, discretion, and reason have lost their dominion, which ii were better were forgotten than repeated ; and sorry I am that Mr. Edwards should think it worth. his while soberly to repeat again to any other person that most improper language which: he slates the defendant at that tiriie of evening had used - but is with Mr. Qr^ oii, I doubt if such a letter was ever ^ before composed either by the folly or the baseness of man. It is as follows : — DEA R SIR,;- My spirits for the last few days have been wound up to such a pitch, from the idea of the fear of being miserable when I am married, that I have been forced, vfcry much against iny inclination, to quit Gvvaeu- ynog in a most shameful manner; for it will never do for ma to go to church loaded as I am with the blue devils: the language of a man elevated with wine to be therefore I have resolved to leave the country; but, in taken as if declared in the sober face of day? Ifthe justice j, o "' 1 ' "" " defendant were perfectly sober, do you think he would have used that language ? I am sine you will not think so uncharitably of him ; and If you think when he used that expression that he. had not the proper use of his reason, you will at once dismiss that part of the charge. I apologize for the length of time I have occupied,>& nd, in conclusion, must beg of you to exercise a cool and dispassionate judgment, to dismiss from your- minds that |) reji!, dice which my learned frieud attempted to raise, to try the cause bv the evidence alone ; and if you tliink „ , T myself, and more so to Miss Capper, f must say, that no fickleness on my part is the. cause of this sudden determination, for I think, as I always have doue, that Miss Capper is one of the. most amiable of women, and every way calculated to make an excellent wife. But what cau 1 do. 1 1 have tried every way to conjure away my fearS j but tlie more T think of them, the stronger they bocome. I Know that I am bound to fulfil my promise, or pay for it; bat, however that may be, I am determined to make any sacrifice father than make myself miserable, which must also entail misery on my wife. 1 haye sent a note, partly to this effect, to " Mr. Meredith, desiring him to endeavour to. convince you. how far" it is from my wish » o do any thins: dishonourable ; but at present, troubled as I am with the letter to Mr. Lloyd contains any imputations^ you will found your decision on that claim, and give no more damages than you think the plaintiff's character has sustained bv that alone. . Mr. Justice Littledafe then summed up, ingoing which he observed, . that the first question- for the wicked thoughts, all the world should not induce me to be married. I shal l not attempt to apologize lor my conduct, for I am aware hofie can be made; but I trust you will still ' believe* tele, Your sincere though unhappy friend. R, B. ORTON. What think you of that, Gentlemen? Is there which iu the eye of the law is a libel ? The" charge ?^^ r^ T"" 1VE in*? l* m> m ': 5 against the. plaintiff is, that it imputes to him his ^ T^' tV1 v ° u' * ^ " being guilty of an offence which is contrary fo the I^ I^ a - VS^^ <? cel^ n' e » » •? vlr oflence statute, and that for such offence he was subject to the punishment of transportation. If you shall be n>. 1'• 1 any surinis^ that his - friends disapproved ofthe consideration of the Jury was, does or does not the | match >_ or tl| at tliere was anv thing, capable ' letter addressed to Mr. of suspicion in the conduct of the plaintiff? . So far ^ - *" '•••' — • • • 0f tue of ' tBTs'.. g^ od'yo^ uig:- wonmn" - be .' signs and seals his own condeiriiiatiori. What are the grounds for hi: _ - . , determination £ Why, that he was loaded with the of opinion that fhe letter to Mr. Lloyd does contain j ,)} lJe t) t. vils an(, tr„ tVb| e( i witli w icked thoughts, such an imputation, it is one from Jv » iclt thf^ lawletter really gives rise to feelings and seusa- " ' lions of- ridicule : but this is not the time for ludi- crous associations ; and however one may laugh at the folly of rhe man, it must create in every mora! and- wei'l- govertved heart disgust at the conduct the defendant has evinced. Geritlenien', he has ac- would infer malice, and is a libel for which': be is- entitled to damages. The defendant hi\ s p. ut no justification upon the record, and therefore a ques-- tiois arises whether the law justifies such letter. It is true the defendant may say be wrote it in a friendly manner to Mr. Mo'vd'' to' put the plaintiff on i i i . . ' , > • bis guar. d, but the law « ,, « {;,.,, this? I P/'- V and he.' » not: be ought, if such were his intention, to have written to the pliiiutiff himself, nnd to him. have, stated what had passed. If it had b^ en Written bona fide to caution the, plaintiff, as a friend, to discontinue the practice alleged, that would go far to diminish the damages, but would not, iu point of law, justify the libel. His Lordship then proceed- ed to read the letters and comment thereon, and in so doing he observed, that in the one to Mrs. Rogers there was, if it weie shewn to Mr. Rogers, suffit-- both to alarm and to excite suspicion. So. lowever, as the letter to Mr. Lloyd goes, it abie to do so : he is a man of large fortune, and I will shew you, out of his own mouth, of not less than £- 25,0( K>; — he sold an estate for £ 11), 000, and has other property winch wil t swell it to that sum ; l eannof, therefore, but call upon you to make the defendant pay for this breach of his promise, i will prove the plaintiff to be a beautiful atidaccom pBshed woman : he acknowledges she would uuvke one of the best of Wi ves ; and I therefore ask yon, as fathers, as most'of you ( I doubt not), are, how you would feel when such an insult had been inflicted on- some oiie of your own. chjldien. In cases like thtfs. no nonniiiarv pftnnipnssiii< v> cun etter was sent by the defendant.— Now, gentlemen, f we only suppose ( and I haye a right to suppose in well as my learned friend), if we suppose Mr. . Rogers to be tormented with a certain feeling, which many well- meaning husbands have, if jou only suppose him of a temper that admits of eaiousy, which converts natuial appealauees into quite the reverse, then there is a key to all the fou* ' mputations which have been so powerfully lavished against Mr. Mytton.— My learned friend from beginning to end presumed thatthere was a ci iminal attachment; lie has presumed an attempt to seduce the Jady's virtue. Why, having presumed the one, he, with all the feeling that is natural to him, would have yen presume the intention of the other. But, gentlemen, ihere is before you no evidence as to intention but what the letters themselves supply As to the observations made upon the letter, ii which my learned friend charges the defendant with slandering the character of the plaintiff, my learned friends ought to bare called Mr. Kenyon, and proved that slander to be false. I wish they had called him; and mark, gentlemen, there are no less than five counts in the declaration which charge tbe defendant with saying, 44 I know Mr. Rogers is in the habit of shooting pheasants by. lit." Now, if there is any ground for making* this verbal slander part of the plaintiff's action, Mr. Ke'uyon ought to have been called, and then, gentlemen, you would have had a chance of learn- ing from him what grounds Mr. Myttou had for saying that of the plaintiff, which is the very ground of his letter to Mr. Lloyd : as they have not thought proper to call him, it is not likely I should call him as a witness, who, according to their. own " hewing, was to prove the better half of the plaintiff's case. Then with respect to the letter to Mr. Lloyd, it is written in that confidence whisk previous familiarity justified ; it is not a letter to an indifferent person, wantonly attacking the charac- ter of Mr. Rogers, but as One intimate friend would w rite to another,— and that letter is now brought in evidence against the defendant. The question, gentlemen,' for you to consider is, whether the letter to Mr. Lloyd, taken by itself, does or does not constitute a libel. He assigns therein, ns a reason for writing to Mrs. Rogers, that Mr. Rogers was more than suspected, and, if.- he had ended there, no jury would come to the conclusion that it was a libel. The only passage that gives it a libellous complexion is the one alluding to its being punishable by transportation: but, observe, gentle- men, he does not. speak of , Mr. Rogers having done this as a positive fact, he does so merely as something he had heard ; and I think you will give him credit for that, because, if it is not true that he had heard so, why did not inv learned friends call Mr. Kenyon as their witness upon the point, and to prove that Mr. Mytton never made the request h states iu the letter that he dirl do. Ai> ain, look at the latter part of the Ictier, and there on the part of Mr. Myttou is not only an ample justification of Mrs. Rogers, butan atkuowL dgment of her virtue, chastity, and good conducl. And yet it is for this letter and for it alone, for the libel contained in it, if you are of opinion it is libellous, thai the plaintiff has to call upon you for damages — Mow as to the letter to Mrs. Rogers, I confess it does not call: for the charge made by my learned friend: I wi,| admit that it may bear the construction he has put upon it, but it. does not necessarily do so. I am afraid mv learned Friend takes more credit to him- ielf in the annals of gallantry than I can claim. I cannot say that I am much conversant in that sort of epistolary correspondence. It is I rue I hnve courted, and succeeded in my courtship. I may have written love letters; but I never sent one so cold, so inanimate, and so unfeeling as this to Mrs. Rogers. I never called on the lady to give me a meeting to avoid giving her trouble. I never asked about her welfare when asking for an as. signation. I never told her when asked to meet me that it would be much to her advantage.— I now come to that part of the case which, iu stronger language than I can express, proves to demons! ra- tion that the plaintiff did not put that construction ou the letters which Mr. Campbell has done. I give the plaintiff credit for being alive to his honour, aud to the nearest and dearest point of his honour; also that he would resent an attack upon the virtue of his wife with as much spirit and honour as any man in the world ; and doing so, I would ask you, as men, whether, at the time Mr. Truss, speaks of, namely, when the plain'iff had consented to suspend the, action simply on costs being paid and an apology made,... whether it. is possible that, any man under the. feelings which Mr. Campbell describes would have agreed to do. so. I do not ask you to put my construction on the letter, but that which the plaintiff, giving him credit for honourable feelings, has doue. Judge him by that, and if he has not felt f'pr. himself, neither ought you lo feel for him. If he had so little regard for his own honour and character as , to suspend proceedings on payment of'costs and an apology, arc you to give hitii more damages than Ire has measured to himself? Are you lo give him more than he in the exasperated state of his feelings ever ventured to ask for? Certainly not. The plaintiff bad only been- a little jealous, and was desirous of clearing himself from the imputation of poaching. It is impossible when this compromise was entered iuto that he could bHie. vc an attempt had been aaade upon the'virtue'of liis wife.- Well, cieu & . does not from itsalf appear that the defendant wa? actuated by any bad intention— that he had any idea of seducing the plaintiff's wife ; but when taken in connection with the evidence given by Edwards, it bears quite a different appearance. The defendant's counsel has said, and properly said, that you are not to take into your consideration any damages for soliciting tbe chastity of the plaintiff's wife, supposing you should be of opinion that he had done so, because the same had not' been carried into effect, being repelled by the virtue of the wifW^. but in estimating the damages, you may not only consider the libel, but also the circumsiances under which such libel was written. His Lordship finally left it to the Jury to consider whether, under all the circumstances that had been brought before them, the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict, and, if they were of opinion that he was entitled to a verdict, then to say what damages would be a compensation for the injury sustained. Verdict for Plaintiff— damages £ 100. Brcach of Promise of Marriage. CAPPER v. ORTON. Mr. Taunton stated the case as follows ^" Gen tleuien of the Jury, this is an action brought by StQfficientlv recompense for ihe injuries committed. Tire female heart is differently constituted " to ours : . there is a ' delicacy and a sensibility belonging to if vi hi eh, when once a wound has been inflicted, does not admit of a speedy cure. I shall prove, when Mr. Capper returned and. stated to his wife and daughter the contents of the letter, the distress it occasioned H— I will shew that, a daggers was, as it were, plunged into the plaintiff's bosom, and she has* never recovered from the wound. The defend- ant was as good as his word : he left his native land, and stayed abroad 16 or IS months, which is the reason the action was not sooner presented to a Jury. And now, Gentlemen j I ask you to give this young lady.„ sueh a reparation as she is entitled to receive. If she" bad beeu made ltts wife, she vvould have acquired an establishment which, though perhaps it would have raised her a little, would not have been greater than she merited ; but this she has lost by his dishonourable conduct. Her fcelkigs have- been outraged her pride wounded — her dignity offended— and the disappointment she bas. sustained h, as bee" uaade known through the two counties he, r. father lived in. I urn sure you will feel for the anguish of her mind, and be of opinion that the defendant, Mr. Orton, is a man to the village to see a pig- race, ( A pig is well soaped all over lo make it difficult to keep hold, and then whoever first catches and retains hold of it is entitled to the animal.) On their return Ihe defendant joined lliem, and asked witness if he remembered and had mentioned what he had said to him the night before; witness said lie bad, and that llie plaintiff bad riuobjections, adding that he himself could. hav. d none to a geiflletnan'of his respectability. De fe li d a at, visited. th e rie x t da y and the n e x t da v, and at ihe persuasion of Mr. George Copper it was agreed that the wedding should lake place immedii ately, providing Mrs. Capper ( who was at Gwncn- ynog) had tfo, objections. The ring was bouoht, licence, applied for, and dresses,-& c. prepared. The plaintiff was not only severely distressed at the con- duct of the defendant, but she had never gone into society, as she was accustomed to do.— Oa his cross- examination,' it appeared that the defendant's suppli- cation to: address ihe plaintiff was made about eigf)( o'clock in the evening, aud that on returning home that night , he and another were thrown out of the gig, whilst Mr. Briefly ( vt'lYo bad also dfued and spent the evening w ith theni)' fell from his horse. A Mr. Meredith had also paid attentions to the plain- tiff, but she would lio't receive his addresses. The R£ v. Mr. Chambers proved application being made lo him for fhe license; Miss Lydia Hodgson that the wedding dresses were prepared; and Miss Maria Morris that she was to have be eh bridesmaid. Mrs. Capper was then called to shew ihe great distress of her daughter, nnd her staying at Gwaen- vnog two or three mouths to receive a mother's care aud attention.— Ou her crosS- examination,- she ad- mitted ill tit since that period she had superintended the household at itanley as usuril. The plaintiff's case being closed, Mr. Campbell said, 4fc Gentlemen. of the Juff^ it is now my duly to" address you on the part of the defendant. Several questions have been put by my learned friend, which he had no occasion to do, namely as to the notoriety of the case. I adiiiit its jlotoriety all over the kingdom of Great. Britain, but it was riot pub- lished by us. Such, indeed, is the notoriety, that I must earnestly request that . you . will dismiss from your minds whatever yon have heard or read re- specting it before . or since you came to attend the . Assizes, and that you will give your verdict accord- ing to what shall appear to you as the real merit of the case>. My client had no object'in view to Cause him to give notoriety lo the case; he has lamented and does lament ihe pain he has inflicted, and it is no fault of his that, every reparation has riot been made without resorting to a Court of Law, which will orily give it greater notoriety. He has himself done that • before which he has inslrucled me lo do now — express his great respect foi4 the plaintiff- declare there is not the slightest imputation on her character, and that she is not only a beautiful but a very excellent young woman. But though I am directed lo acknowledge the charms of virtue, beauty, and modesty of the plaintiff, lean not give the same praise to the rest of Iter family, I think they have acted wrong from fhe beginning to the end. 1 vvjli ask you, Gentlemen, whether any of , you, if your daughters, had been similarly situated, ! would have brought an action, sued out process, had a trial. at Shrewsbury, in which all the trans- actions relating to it must appear in the Newspapers, and he iend. in the alehouses by ihe very lowest of Society ? No; you would htive disdained such a proceding; Money would riot have been your object, and. if it had, it. vvould have been arranged in. a private, manner. Not so. Mr.. Thomas Capper; he wishes not to throw a mantle over it, but to publish , it to . the world. The question for yon to decide i « v what dainages Ihe plaintiff, is entitled to? what sum of money will h,; requisite to recompense the injury done, toiler feelings— IO put into her pocket, add lo her fortune, and obtain for her'- another husband ? I - cannot sufficiently admire the dexterity of liiy learned friend Mr. Taunton • he would have you believe that it was quite a different ease from what it turns out to be-: would not any one have supposed, from his opening speech, that there had been a long train of attentions paid to the virtues aud beauty of ihe plaintiff; thai' at Cbesler defendant had been iu fhe habit of following and admiring her charms; that he had sighed, and. sighed iti vain, after qualities which had exci'ed an iiuexUnguishable flame; and that, after a long aud tedious courtship, the lady had relented — had acceded Jo his entreaties; that with him she I'. ad discovered there was every pro lady, and where, I would ask, is the baseness a mercenary feeling- of the defendant? He does m » t lehve her for a more wealthy or a more beautiful object. No ; he is a bachelor to this day. His lettef breathes sentiments of generosity and : liheiali'yv hn « l: not of baseness. l! e expfesscft bis regret and offers'eyery: reparation, noi only in words () iit, irt nioriey. If money could be the reparation HVat Mr, Capper- ret| uired it was not his fault that it was not privately seftle; d:--- tV< it bis fault that it fead bee'fl. br< r^ ghHn! o a Court of Justire. The question'that remains is, what, damages has she sustained. If ' she has sustained no'to^- s, then she is entitled to no dauiages4 and she cannot hove sustained loss, where there could he no expectation of , hftppiiie! » s;.

It is brought for a brpach of an honourable engage- ment entered into by the defendant, whereby , h undertook to make the plaintiff his wife. She i the daughter of a gentleman of the same name, and of a good family, w ho occupies two considerable farms, one at Gwaenynog, in the county of Den- bigh, and the other at Hanle. y, in the county of Chester; he also possesses a small freehold estate fw his own right, and is, in short, a mai\ of substance worth at least £ 15,000. The defendant is a gen- „ . . tleman of considerable property , and was origiiiully I proved the residence, respectability, intended for the law, but, retiring from that, he | tiff's father, and of the defendant, afterwards became a Lieutenant in the Cheshire Militia, and he is now a Cornet in the Yeomanry of that county ; he resides at Tatfeuhall, riot more than- 2 miles from Hauler, one of the places, where the plaintiff's father- resides, the household of that ut Hanley being superintended by the plaintiff, and that at Gwaenynog by her mother, the father being occasionally at each. The young* lady is, f am informed, possessed of numerous attractions nn* l great beauty — of considerable and . varied accom- plishments, having been educated at one of the first schools in Chester— of spotless purity and hdrioiir- wr- and until she became acquainted with the defendant enjoyed perfect peace arid happiness. The defend-/ ant vvas at school with her uncle, Mr. George Capper, though be was not personally acquainted with the plaintiff. In Dec. 1822, Mr. George Capper came on a visit fo Hanley, when the former intimacy between him and the defendant was re- vived ; visits were. exchanged, and Mr. Orton took an early opportunity of expressing bis admir- ation of the charms and attractions of Miss Capper, the plaintiff. In company on a shooting excursion, Mr. G. Capper invited him to the house, where he remained all night, aud was the next morning introduced to the plaintiff. No further acquaint- ance took place until July, 18* 23, when Mr. George Capper paving a second visit to Hanley, the inti- macy vvas renewed ; visits were paid and received ; the admiration of the defendant had increased on better acquaintance, and he shortly made a formal declaration of the attachment her charms and beauty had created. He applied for permission to address her, aud Mr. Capper told him it required consider- ation— time must be allowed for the parties to be acquainted, aud uothing could be done until the consent of the mother was obtained. Defendant remonstrated at delay; he said lie was averse to long courtships', had plenty 6f pl- operty himself, .*, and therefore and would take her without a sous. delay would be ridiculous; he asked his friend George Capper to prevail on the plaintiff and her father to abate the delay they were desirous the proceedings should be attended with. At this stage, Gentlemen, it is proper I should apprize you of their ages : she vvas in her 18th year, had only a short period come from a boarding school, had begun to add to her other accomplishments the more useful and necessary one of conducting her father's household, and she had conducted it in a way that raised the defendant's admiration almost as much as her own personal charms. He was not a raw inexperienced youth, carried on by the beat and impetuosity of passions which matorer years would lead him to despise; he had already reached the mature age of o5, when, if reason had not acquired its dominion, it is not likely it ever vvould. This was an attachment formed by a man who had all bis powers in force and vigour— an attachment begun in the heart, and which had received the sanction of the understanding. In pursuance of the defendant ' s request that the marriage might not be delayed, Mr. G. Capper spoke to the plaintiff and her father; and shortly afterwards, going together to Aldersey Spa, it was agreed that they should go up to Gwaenynog to prevail u- pou , t| ie mother, and that Mr. G. Capper and the defendant should follow them the next Saturday, when aj » immediate marriage vvas to be arranged. The; parties accordingly went to Gwaeny. nog; the ne eessary steps were taken ; the ring was purchased and the license applied for ; but as the lady had not resided in that parish, the Surrogate informed the defendant that a month must elapse before it could be granted, and he returned to. Gwaenynog mortified aud disappointed. Ou his return, lie asked suid obtained permission from the plaintiff's father to remain at Gwaetiyuog until the month was expired, and it was finally settled the wedding' should take place ou Tuesday, Aug. 26. Gentlemen,! have now to lay before you the conduct of tbe defendant : I d not say it is not without a parallel, but no possibl coudul't could equal it in cruelty vy'a& t of j> rin . - same Time pay ope Month iu Advance ( if required) of the Rental which such Tolls may be Let, and give Security* with sufficient Sureties to the Satisfaction of the Trustees of the . ,, v „ • ,.

Mr. George . Capper, uncle to the plaintiff, , kc. of plain- vvitli whom he was a schoolfellow ; that, on witness coming from London to Hun ley ou a visit, in Dec. 1822, and being in a sporting party with the defendant,, he stopped all night at the defendant's brother's ; on the Saturday following, as they were returning ' otn dining at a friend's house of the name of riscoe, the defendant observed to witness what a banning girl his niece ( plaintiff) was, and ex- pressed his anxiety to be introduced lo her, for which purpose he accompanied him to Hauler, where he slept that night, and was introduced " to her the following morning, and stayed there till 8 or 9 at night. Witness returned to London a few days after, and the next time he saw defendant was at the end of J une or beginning of July, 1823, when he gave witness a pressing invitation. At one of the visits which then took place, the defendant poke cf the plaintiff in very high terms; witness and his brother Henry dined with him, and gave him an invitation in return, which he accepted on the Sunday ; lie also came and dined the next day, and was iu her company every day, and vvas very attentive to her. Ou returning from fishing, ano- ther day the same week, he said, " I suppose you re aware I have made proposals of marriage to your riieee ;" aud stated his objections to long eour'ships, which he lliought perfectly ridiculous. He then asked witness to prevail upon the plaintiff and her father to bring the business to a speedy conclusion, Observing, 44 You know I am not cut out for a long courtship." Witness did so; and a day or two afterwards, on a walking excursion to Aldersey- Spa, whither plaintiff, her fa! her, sister, defendant, aud witness went, it was agreed that the plaintiff and her father should on the next Tuesday return to Gwaen- ynog to obtain the mother's consent, and that the defendant and witness should follow them on the Saturday. A few days after, defendant told bis brother that be was going to be married lo Mi& s Capper ; they went to Gwaenviiog; the licence was applied for, but could not then be had, and defendant suid he would stay there till it could. On the Friday preceding- the Tuesday fixed for the wedding, de- fendant, who bad before expressed uneasiness about some papers a Mr. Asliley had had to shew on a trial al Chester, went to see about them, and said he would return the next day ( Saturday), but did not. On thai evening her father brought ihe letter he had received from the defendant, which occasioned the greatest p'ossihle distress,' and caused her to be con- fined to her room very much. Defendant told witness he sold the Bulkeley estate for t' 19,000, and put it in the 5 per cents.; also that he lost a consi- derable income by the reduction of the 5 !> er cents, to 4 per cent. The house and land at Tatlf uhall were defendant's — In his cross- examination, it appeared that the defendant dined at Mr. Capper's on Hanley Wake Sunday with some other friends, and all were sober, though all to a certain degree were under the influence of liquor; he also dined ihere the following day, when they drank more freely, and on that evening made application lo pay his addresses to the plaintiff, On the following Sunday, on their way to Aldersey Spa, it was arranged about going to Gvvaenynog to obtaiu the mother's consent, whither, ou the Tuesday, the ^ plaintiff and her father went, and on the next Satur- day the witijess and defendant; aud that the licence was applied for, on the following Monday. Mr. Thomas Capper, father of the plaintiff, gene- rally confirmed the testimony of preceding witness, but, iu addition, said there had been an intimacy between the families for 20 years, and that defend- ant's sisters ' bad visited at his house. On defendant asking permission on the Monday to pay his address es to the plaintiff, witness told him be thought she was tot) young ( being then ouly 17), and perhaps the furtuup be eould give her might not be thought enough ; to which defendant replied^ that he had enough of . his own, and would take her without sous— desired witness to mention it to the plaintiff that night, and lie would come the next day. ; On that day witaessand others walked after diaiier turned round and basely behaved her. Gentlemen, I. admit my client has aeled caprici onsly and improperly, but 1 deny that he has acted basely, or with profligacy. What does this courtship tu. ally turnoui lo. be?, Why, until the k22d Dec. 1822, the defendant had . never exchanged a word with her « — ihey were perfect strangers— not upon Speaking terms ; lie then was introduced to her, and it does not appear that from that period down lo ih time when her uncle came from Loudon, in Jniv 1823, he ever saw or spqke to this beautiful yonu woman again.: her -. charm* had vanished from his mind. The ice is broke in December, 18^ 2 ; he may go and court her if he likes : they thought his would be a creditable connection to adorn the house of Capper • Ji. rit, from 1822, ibis ardent lover never. goes nigh the beautiful damsel till July in ihe following year, although living within two miles of her. Gentlemen, it was not . Margaret Elizabeth Capper, but Mr. George Capper, that the defendant wanted ; he was given to friendship rather than love; but 1 dare say they thought it would be a good plan to Mr Orion to come over and fall iu love with Miss Capper. Well, what takes place? He is invited Hanley Wake, and dines there on the Sunday, and goes away sober. On Monday, Mr. Capper, having found that soberness would- not do, considered it necessary, perhaps, to inflame his love, and therefore had a g- ood jolly party, wheu they had pieuty of good alp. Well, up, to this period, Mr. Or ton had never thought of addressing the plaintiff to be his w ife. Now, however, having taken plenty of liquor, he declares his love boldly, and this when* perhaps, he could not speak distinctly or stand steadily. All at once it bursts upon him ; lie is in liquor— love comes — he asks permission to address her Mr. Capper, I dare say, thought to himself,' Well this ale works purely, I shaikh aye Robert Bulketey Orton to be my son- in- law ! He had thought it would have taken at least a week to have worked on the phlegmatic Mr. Orton. The old gentleman, however, at defendant's request, mentioned it to bis daughter, and. she con- sents al once, having never before been spoken lo on Ibe subject. Mr. Orton courted through the father; he bad not taken her a fairing— not even a piece of a garter— had not even touched her little finger Well, she, sighing consent, consented. Do you, Gentlemen, believe, she was then'' in love? Why he vvas 36, and a tolerable good to » kiug man for his Vears; she was only 17, and he above twice her age. Gentlemen, vvhen yon shall arrive at the age of 35 I don't know what you will think of your age, but I cau assure yon a young lady of 17 will think you very old. Here you have an old man of 35 paying his ad dresses through the father. Why., I am sure the young lady must think her father was quizzing; but, finding she should be well off, says, she would have him : the business is done in 5 minutes. Do you think, Geutlemen, Mr. Orion was in a hurry tore. Ceive an answer? no such thing; where does he go the next day ? why to, the pig race to be sure, to see its tail well soaped : he never bestows one thought on Margaret Elizabeth, and perhaps never enquired, until the old gentleman gave him a gentle hint, and then, finding he had, in a moment of thoughtless intoxication, contracted an engagement with amiable woman, had too, much spirit to recede. Gentlemen, when a mail is going to do a thin^ which is against his heart, be generally does it in a hurry, anxious lo get it over, just like a coward who runs into danger. I believe Mr.. Orton bad a ( lis like to the engagement; that for a lime he pushed it on without reflection, for it was all done in one fortnight and a day. He asked permission on the Monday night, the wedding was deterrinined on the following Sunday. . Ou the Monday fortnight from j obtaining permission, the father goes with him for j a license, and there is no doubt if it could have been j obtained, the wedding would have laken place the following morning. And yet you are to snppose her deeply enamoured. I do not wish to hurl her feel- ings, but must say she could have no affection, she yielded reluctantly to the commands of her father ; she would rather have waited for a man more to her taste, one that vvas younger. It appears, however, that my client, us I said before, having contracted an engagement vyhich he did not like, to drown all thoughts of it ; hurried it on : before, hoWever, the mouth expired, he became unhappy, and reflected I hat it would be impossible to complete ihe engage- ment without sacrifiicng bis ow n happiness aud the lady's also ; and then be does that which is best for himself aud for her. What happiness eould have been expected from such an union ? None : no- thing but misery, quarrelling, and ruin,. He did what, under the circumstances, vvas the least evil of the two. I say that tbe step he took was that which every virtuous and honest man would have done, when he found that it vvas impossable be could love her. Such being the case, every feeling of hououc required he should withdraw. He does so, aud then writes a letter containing as honourable a testimony as could be seut to the eh » ra « Ur yt' lUe _ , JW. PUG HE, Clerk to the said Trustees. Towing- Path Tofts to be Let.

Ou Thursday ujoining, at nine o'clock, Mr Justice Littieilule took his seat ai Nisi Priua; and at ten o'clock Mr. Bar. on Gai row entered upon the business of the Crown Court, where the following. Gentlemen were sworn of the Grand Jury : The Honourable Thomas Kenyon, of Prado, Foreman Sir Edward Joseph Smvthe, of Acton Burilell, Bart. Sir Rowland Hiil, ftf Hawkstone, Bart. SirThos. John Tyr whin Jones; of Stanley Hall, Bart. Sir Robert Chambres Hill, of Prees, K. C. B. Thomas VVhittnore, of Apley Park, Esq.

Edward fiatacre, of Galacre, Esq. Thomas Eyton, of Eyioti, Esq. George Corser, of Whitchurch, Esq. His Majesty's Proclamation against Vice, Pro- faneness, aud Immorality was then read; after which, Mr. Baron GARtfow ( who evidently laboured under much indisposition) proceeded to charge the Grand Jury.— The only case iu the calendar that required any observation was, he said, that of Martha Sankey, charged with the wilful murder of her female bastard child ; and his Lordship said lie wished lo impress upon the Jury the necessity of not felurning any bill against her lhat waS not borne out by sufficient evidence. His Lordship then paid a very high compliment to the Clerk of the Peace, and to the Magistracy of the County, for ihe care which had been taken to forward the depositions to the Judges relative to ihe cases for trial— an example which, he hoped, would be followed by other coun- ties. The Learned Judge afterwards remarked, at considerable length, on the necessity of Magistrates being extremely particular in taking depositions, so thai, if any witness should die before trial, liie instrument should be sufficiently legal, in point of form, to be given in as evidence, if necessary; and he then, after complimenting the Grand Jurors for ihe numerous attendance of Gentlemen properly qualified, discharged them to their business. JOHN GITTINS, for stealing three ducks and drake, the property of Frances Charlton, of Onslow, was the first prisoner tried.—' The case was very abort and clear; the prisoner was, by ihe activity of the servants of John Wingtield, Esq. apprehended wilh two of the stolen ducks in his possession, im- mediately after he bad committed the offence; and he was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment. RICHARD JONES and WILLIAM O^ ENS, were found guilty of stealing- five silk handkerchiefs, the property of Mr. Thomas Colley, mercer, Shrewsbury; and WILLIAM WILLIAMS was found guilty ofstealing a pair of shoes, the property of Mr. Thomas Crump- ton, of Shrewsbury, and a quantity of ribbon, the properly of Mr. Edward Keysell, mercer— The cases of these three prisoners were exactly similar; they had enlisted with a recruiting party, iu Shrewsbury, ami had gone to the shops of the several prosecutors, pretending to want various articles, when they succeeded in purloining the several goods afterwards found in, or traced to, their possession, and for stealing which they were re- spectively convicted, aud each sentenced lo be iui- piisoiit'd 12 months to hard labour. WILLIAM GRIFFITHS, for stealing* A silver watch find gold seals, and various articles of apparel, ihe property of Charles Swiuche. lt, of Drayton, had Judgment of Death recorded against him.— Mr. Job & vvinched, the prosecutor's father, is an innkeeper, it nd the prisoner came to I lie house or refreshment and lodging; when he took the opportunity of bursting open a bureau, and stealing the articles in question.— He was pursued aud taken at Hinstock, when he confessed ihe crime and gave up Ibe stolen goods; a chisel, which corresponded wilh the marks made l> y violence on the bureau, was found ill his possession.— lie said he had served as a sailor on the coast of Africa, and was travelling iu distress when be committed the crime. THOMAS BARKER was found guilty of stealing seven sheep, the property of Mr. Thomas James, of Bishop's Castle, and ( after he had received a good character from two respectable farmers, and had been recommended to mercy by the Jury) Judgment of Death was directed to he recorded against him.— Il appeared in evidence that, on the26ih of Septem- ber, the servant of the prosecutor was taking- the tdiecp in question to the field of his master, when a person slopped him to converse with him, and he left the sheep with his son, a liltle boy, who lost sight of them and informed his father, who soon found that they had been driven through the turn- pike gate on the road to Ludlow ( where there was a Fair Hie next day), and after following them about ivDrih fifteen thousand pounds, all of which be hat made away. JOHN NUTTALL, for stealing 14 one- pound notes, and £ 1 in silver, from Thomas Coles, at Bridgnorth, was sentenced to he imprisoned lor 2 years.— It ap- peared in evidence that the prosecutor; Who was bailiff'to Mr. Fosier, of Colon Hull, was very drunk al the Raven Inn, Bridgnorth, on the 20th Novem- ber ; he was sick, aud the prisoner and another man took him and put him in the stable, where his pocket was picked soon alter liy some persons ; suspicion fell upon the prisoner and his companion* named Thomason; from Circumstances that occurred in a few days, the prisoner was apprehended, when 2 of the stolen notes ( which were identified by Mr. Foster) were found in his possession; 9 others ( which were also Identified) bad been picked up in ihe stable yard at the Rayen Inn, under circumstances that left no doubt ilie prisoner put theiii there to be picked up.— When apprehended he confessed ihe crime, and said Thomason instigated him to do it.— Thomasoti had been apprehended and cojiimilied us au accomplice, but no bill was found against him. MARTHA SANKEY, charged with Ihe wilful murder of her female bastard child at All Stretton, was acquit ted.—- Many of the circumstances of this ca » e, as detailed in evidence, are not of a nature for publication. It will be sufficient to observe, that the prisoner was certainly delivered of the child at the house of a relation at All Stretton, and thai, though questioned some time before on Ihe subject by Mr. Mott, surgeon, to whom she had applied for medical advice, she had denied lhat she was pregnant. She was delivered in a small cottage, in which there were inmates at the time, and the room floor of which was uneeded aud full of chinks; and if the child had made the least cry, it must have been heard ; her relations knew she was ill, and in bed at the time, having retired to the room about 2 hours, but did not suspect the cause, believing her to be dropsi- cal, of which disease her mother died a short time ago. They, however, finding her very ill, sent for Mr. Mott,' who, on examination, discovered that a child had been very recently born: prisoner at first denied this, but subsequently shewed him where the child was wrapped up in a bundle; on opening the bundle Mr. Molt found that the child was dead, and that a tape was coiled twice round its neck, but not lied — After an address to the Jury, in which the Learned Judge said, that; from all the circumstances, it was evident there was no ground for a conviction for murder ( as the child, if born alive, could not have uttered the least cry without being heard), and also, that it was extremely doubtful if even the Jury could find that the concealment of birth had in law been proved, the Jury acquitted the prisoner. The Coroner's Inquisition was put iu, but the Judge said it could not he proceeded upon, because it was illegal in point of form. In fact, among- other blunders, it alleged that the prisoner had been " big with child of a new- born infant!"-~ The Learned Judge recommended that Coroners, in all cases of importance, should employ a legal man to draw out the Inquisitions in a proper form. GEORGE JONES and RICHARD HEADI. Y, for stealing deal boxes from a wharf at Coal port, w here they were employed as labourers, were sentenced to 1 mouth's imprisonment. WILLIAM JONES, for breaking into the house of Richard Roberts, at Aslley Abbotts, and slealin variou'sarticles of wearing apparel, had Judgment of Death recorded against him.— The prosecutor, who is a labouring man, had, with his family, left his collage, and gone out upon their business, A girl who lived near, saw the prisoner rap at the prose- cutor's door,' and, as he received no answer, she saw him afterwards trying to get in at the windows. She went and told a female neighbour, who pro- six miles, he found the prisoner driving them, who, on perceiving persons coming, drew off from the sheep as il' he did not wish to be considered as having sir> y thing to do with them. The prisoner afterwards wanted " to make the mailer up, and said he only drove them off by way of 11 a rig!" WILLIAM PLANT, for stealing a bay mare, fhe pro- perty of Mrs. Elizabeth Topham, " of Eaton- tipon- Tern, on the Ofli of March, 1S23, had Judgment of j) eaih recorded against him.— A day or two previous to the mare being stolen, the prisoner was seen loi- leriii"- about Mrs. Topham's premises; on the lOlh of March the prisoner offered the mare to Thomas Steel, of The Hough, Cheshire, for £ 20; Steel sus- pected he bad stolen the animal, and told him if he did hot take himself off he would have him appre- hended ; Sieel went for a constable, and the prisoner in I he mean time made his escape, leaving the mare behind him, which Steel restored to Mrs. Topham; Steel heard of the prisoner being at work in Cheshire dnrino the last harvest, and went with the constable lo apprehend him; the constable took him into cus- tody, and he again escaped. In January last lie was apprehended al Newcasile- iinder- Lyme, and he then confessed the crime to the constable. WILLIAM FRANKS, for stealing a quantity of bay, the property of Mrs. Martha Poole, of Wellington, was sentenced to one month's imprisonment.— Il ap- peared lhat Mis. Poole's hay stack had been repeat- ciily robbed ; aud, in consequence, one John Child, whose house was near it, was placed on the watch ; he watched during the night, and until two o'clock in the morning of the 18th of January, w hen he vyent to bed, having first, however, adopted the ingenious precaution of passing a string round the stack, and thence lo his own bed- room, where he attached a hell to it ; after he had retired about an hour, the bell rant*; he got up immediately j- and caught the pri- soner filling his bag wilh the hay which be had pulled from the stack.— The Judge paid a deserved compliment to Child for his invention, which was, he said, infinitely superior to men- traps or spring guns, as it was equally efficacious in detecting ihe thief, and fulfilled ils purpose without hazard to an inno- cent individual, and without inflicting bodily injury on the guilty party. EVAN EVANS, aged 48, for stealing a half- bred bay gelding, the property of James Lucas, of Hiil Farm, in the parish of Llanfihangol- Nanimella'U, Radnorshire, had Judgment of Death recorded against him; but, after the merciful recommendation of the prosecutor, the Judge intimated to him that he should endeavour to procure a commutation of his sentence for 2 years' imprisonment.— It appeared in cadence, that on the night of the 14th of March, 3823, the gelding was stolen from the premises of the prosecutor; on ihe 15th of March, soon after mid- day, the prisoner brought it into the Fair at Oswestry, a distance of 50 miles' from the prosecutor's, and sold il there to Thomas Richards, a haulier, for £ 11, at the saute time baling that his name was Evans, of Trcborfa, near Bishop's Castle, when in fact he lived near the Hill Farm, 20 miles from ihat place.— M Lucas soon after received some information, which induced him to go to Whittiugtour and he found his horse in the possession of Richards; a warrant was obtained against the prisoner, who absconded, and was n- t apprehended until February last, when was taken in London, aud brought down to Presteigne bv Ellis, the Bow- street offi. er; Ire was removed from thence by habeas corpus lo hi4 tried at Shiews- buiy.— Fifteen years ago, the prisoner was the pro- prietor aud occupier of ihe Hill Farm, and at lhat time possessed, as we arc informed, a lauded property ceeded to ihe prosecutor's cotta- e, and saw th prisoner iu* the house ; he had got in at the window, and on perceiving that he was discovered, he got out the same way, and ran off, not having time to carry away the articles which be had placed on a cluth for thai purpose. He was taken at Wenlock a few hours afterwards. GEORGE PEACOCK, charged with the manslaughter of George Meredith", at Nesscliff, was acquitted, it appearing in evidence that the deceased was the aggressor, and had struck the first blow, and that ihe combat was w hat is termed k< a fair fight/' WILLIAM SMITH, f « r stealing two flannel waist coats, and a pair of flannel trowsers, from ihe cabin of a coal pit belonging to the I. illeshall Company, was sentenced lo 1 month's impii'sonmeut. JOHN BARRATT, for a burglary and robbery in the house of John Price, a tailor, at Gobowen, near Oswestry, bad Judgment of Death recorded against ITiin — The prisoner had obtained employment as a tailor from the prosecutor, with whom he worked for a few days; he left his employment in the afternoon of the 17th of August; aud in the night of that day, the burglary and robbery took place.— It appeared in evidence that belween 4 and 5 o'clock in Ihe morning of the 18th of August, the person who carries the Salopian Journal lo Oswestry, met fhe prisoner, who had a great coat on, carrying a large bundle and au umbrella, at Monlford Bridge, on the way to Shrewsbury; between 5 and 6 o'clock lhat morning, he arrived at a lodging house in Shrewsbury, where he put the bundle aud umbrella iu the landlady's charge; he had his breakfast and went to bed ; he got up in the afternoon, put the top coat fiver his otj^ er clothes anil went out; ihe prose- cutor had made immediate pursuit, and the prisoner was apprehended that afternoon on Pride Hill, in Shrewsbury, by John Hayward, a constable, who produced the " top coat worn by ihe prisoner, the umbrella, and ihe bundle with its contents; the various articles were identified hy the prosecutor, and by his wife and son.— In cousequence of the prosecutor having been very prompt in his endea vours to apprehend ihe prisoner, and of himself and his family being hard- working industrious people, the Judge ordered him a reward of £ 10 in addition to his expenses. THOMAS HATES, for stealing 5s. in copper money, the property of Thomas Matthews, of Hiusfock, was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment.— The prose- cutor was going with his carl for a load of coals, when the prisoner, who fell in company with him, stole the money out of the cart- box.— The prisoner was pursued, ns soon as the money was missed, and w hen taken, he confessed the theft. SAMUEL ISHERWOOD, for stealing n sow, the pro- perty of William Corfield, of Oaken Gates, was sentenced to 2 years' imprinonmeul.— As soon as the prosecutor missed his sow from the stye, he and others went in pursuit, and his son found the prisoner with the animal at Atchani, where he was apprehended. WILLIAM JONES and ROWLAND ROWLANDS, for stealing a gallon of cider, the properly of Mr. D. Parry and Mr. Phillips, al Chirbury,' were sentenced to 1 month's imprisonment The prisoners are bricklayers; they were employed at the house of Ibe prosecutors ; and, being at work in the cellar, they unstopped the bung- hole of a hogshead of cider, and bv the aid of a piece of keck, con- trived to drink at it till they became intoxicated; they were taxed withf the theft, aud at length ad- mitted their culpability. (" The Grand Jury having finished their business tranportation ; and the Learned Judge requited tbe Under Sheriff lo communicate to ihe Secretary of Slate his wish that the sentence should be promptly carried into execution.— His Lordship then directed lhat Mrs. Gardner should receive a reward of £ 10 for her courage in seizing such a powerful and atrocious villain.— The prisoner aud his companion left a bag wilh their implements of housebreaking by Miss Bach's bouse when they ran away. WILLIAM SMITH was charged with stealing a quan- tity of wheat, the properly of Samuel Cotton, of Whixall.— The prisoner had been thrashing for tbe prosecutor on Saturday, the 19th of February; in the course of the night of the 20th some of the tlwashed wheat was stolen from ihe barn ; on searching Ihe house where the prisoner lodged, about half a strike of corn similar to that stolen was found in a bag between the bed and the sacking on which the prisoner lay.— On the part of the prisoner an alibi was set up, and he received a very good character. — The Jury returned a verdict of acquittal. THOMAS COWLEY was charged with stealing a mare, the property of Ann Davies, of Wem.— The son of tbe prosecutrix had left the horse fastened by the bridle to a carl near the Bull and Dog public bouse, at Edsiaston, while he went to the neigh- bouring house of a relation ; on returning to ihe place the horse was missing ; lie immediately went iu pursuit towards the Edstaston turnpike, accom panied by Thomas Cliff, sou of the landlord of the Bull and Dog public- bouse ; whan on the road, they heard the sound of a horse brushing over a hedge ; they got into tbe fields in that direction, and perceived Mrs. Davies's mare, and a man run ning away at a few yards distance from her ; thei pursued him, be jumped over a hedge into the road, where Cliff found him leaning against the ditch- bank, as if hiding himself. On Cliff seeing who it was, he said, u Eh, Cowiey, is it thee?" to which the prisoner replied, " Ave, Tommy Cliff, think 1 wanted to steal the mare ?"— A liltle girl named Kempster deposed lhat she saw the prisoner leading the mare by the hridleat a slow pace along the road just previous. Capt. Steward, Stephen Hassall Esq. and Mr. Clay, of Weill, gave llie prisoner a most excellent character; it appeared he was an industrious young man, aud well kuown lo every body in Wem and the neighbourhood : there was no Fair in any town near at the time; the prisoner was in his usual working- dress; and there did not ap- pear any shadow of a reason why it was likely be should attempt to steal the mare.— The Jury im- mediately acquitted the prisoner.—[ We heard bin led in Court, that the prisoner bad a motive, but certainly not a felonious one, for wanting to rid at any rale to go a little way that . night to see a person, and so took the horse so opportunely placed his road ] DANIEL ROSCOE, for breaking into the granary of Mr. George Hainer, al Hod net,' was sentenced to 1 month's imprisonment.— The prisoner probably ex- pected to^ g- et some booty in the granary ; it appeared, however, lie only got an old bill and receipt out of a desk in if; lie confessed ihe breaking open the granary when he was apprehended. THOMAS STEEL, for stealing a quantity of cheese out of the granary of Mr. W. Davies, of Hinstock, was sentenced fo be transported for 7 years— It ap- peared from the evidence of Mr. John Cureton, constable of Newport, that he, oa the Ist of March, went to search Ihe prisoner's bouse, lie being suspected of having been concerned with some other wen known characters iu a recenl robbery in t'- e vicinity ; he found a pistol and flints, with a variety of picklock keys, and a quantity of base coin; in different parts of the premises; and in a box he found great part of a large cheese, covered up with clothes; Mr. Davies's cheese- room had been robbed in the night of the 28th Febiuary, and on trying one f the picklock keys to the lock of ihe granary door it opened it with ease.— Mrs. Davies and her son swore to the parcel of cheese now produced being a part of one that was sto'en on the night of the 28th February ; and the prisoner was accordingly con- victed.—[ In consequence of the recommendation of the Grand Jury, the Judge informed Mr. Cureton he should, for his exertions in bringing this prisoner and others to justice, order him as large a reward as the Act of Parliament would permit.] Trial of Thomas Grinsell Ilodghin. THOMAS GRINSELL HODGKIN ( against whom there were two other indictments lor fraud) was found guilty of stealing a silver watch of the value of £ 5 and upwards, and two gold seals of tbe value of £ 2, the property of Mary Harries, widow. Mary Harries deposed that she keeps a shop in Mardol, Shrewsbury; she had seen the prisoner at Mr. Wilkes's,' the Elephant and Castle Inn, Mardol, at various limes from the Ist to the 4th of March ; on the4t. h of March he went into her shop and purchased a gilt chain and other articles to tlie value of 38s. 6d. ; lie said he had. a sister coming to Shrewsbury, and that he was about to take a house in the town or vicinityas he bad £ 3000 to receive, and both he aud bis sister had independent properties ;. he said his sister would come by ibe coach to tbe Lion at half- past ten o'clock, thai he had a large note in Ins pocket which he cooid not get changed on account if the banks being closed, and that be would pay for the articles on Ibe arrival of Ills sister; witness happened to be winding up', a watch at the time in the shop ; prisoner said, u Pray, how does lime go ?" he also said he had a gold watch that cost him 25 guineas, and that he should receive it when bis sister arrived, as she bad plenty of money and should buy « ne for herself; witness said, Perhaps you would like to wear ibis watch till your sister comes ?" the prisoner immediately took up the watch and went away, taking also the articles he had bargained for; lie returned in about three minutes, and asked witness to lend him a £ 1 note ; she was surprised at this, and said she had none ; she saw him again at night, when he was going with her son and the ogiler from Mr. Wilkes's to meet his sister, an lie said ; when she lent Ihe prisoner ihe watch, there was a black ribbon to il; when she saw it, after Ihe prisoner was in custody, the gilt chain which she had sold tbe prisoner was attached lo it. On her cross- examination by Mr. Slaney, Mrs. Harries said, she fully expected to have received the watch again that night, ou the arrival of ihe pri- soner's sister; thai she had no intention of disposing of the watch ; and that, though she parted with it so readilv to the prisoner, she would not have sold il for £ 500. John Harries, son of the last witness, went with the prisoner and Mr. Wilkes's ostler to meet The Wonder coach at the Lion, by which the prisoner said he expected his sister to arrive ; when prisoner and witness came opposite ihe shop of Mr. Gray, tailor, High street, prisoner rapped at Mr. Gray's door, and said there were clothes making for him there ; he told witness to wait and enquire for the clothes, and then follow him to the Lion; witness waited tili Mr. Gray's boy came to the door, and said they knew nothing about Mr. Grinsell ( by which name the prisoner passed iu Shrewsbury); witness went ou to the Lion, but the prisoner was not there, nor did his sister come by Tbe Wonder coach. The ostler from the Elephant and Castle, who was The Judge intimated to, the pristfRer that he did : not wish to prevent him saying any thing- in his defence; and that there were modes of alluding to any circumstances without outraging that decency which ought to characterize the proceedings of the Court. The prisoner then said that when he came to Shrewsbury he came to look for work as a journey- man tailor; that he went for lodging and refresh- ment to Mr. Wilkes's, where he met with Mrs. Harries, who visited at the bouse; that as they were sitting in tbe bar, Mrs. Harries said to him, she thought she had seen him somewhere before; he said, he thought so too, and that it was at Messrs. Jennings and Co.' s warehouse, in Birmingham; that on afterwards going- to her house, she told him that when she had seen him in Birmingham such emotions had taken possession of her as had never left her since; that on one occasion, a raffle took place Ut Mr. Wilkes's, for some Circus tickets, in which he was invited to join ; that he said he . had no raffling money : that Mr. Wilkes offered to fend him five or six'shillings, on which Mrs. Harries winked to him, " as much as to say, take it," and he did take it ; that on another occasion, he was invited to cards with Mrs. Harries and others in the bar of Mr. Wilkes's house; that things went on in this way till the day be had the watch from her, when lie went and told her be was in distress, and must try to gel money to pay for what he had bad in Shrewsbury ; that she then made offers to him similar to those with which Joseph was tempted; and that she said she had a few hundreds left, and she would go with him, if he liked, to Norwich, where she had been before, or would live with him any w here else. Mrs. Harries, on being asked by the Judge, said, there was not one word of truth iu what Ihe prisoner had said in imputing to her improper conduct. Mr. Wilkes being in Court, was called upon by the Judjre to state what he knew of the prisoner. Mr. Wilkes said ihe prisoner had come to his house on the 1st of March, and had asked for a bed and refreshment; he continued there till the night when he set off for Shiffnal as before stated ; he described himself as the son of a Quaker, who had left him and his sister an indej> endent fortune ; that his name w Grinsell, and he had been a traveller in the japan- ning Irade, at w hich he had earned a guinea a day ; that he aud his sister were coining to reside in Shrewsbury, where he wished to take a genteel house; that, at prisoner's request, witness and hi • nephew had enquired after several houses for him ; that the raffling and card parties he had spoken of, were merely private parties in wilness's family that when witness lent him the 5 or 6 shillings, the prisoner had professed to want change for a£ I 1 » ill which witness was unable lo give him ; that, prisoner went away without paying witness ; and that, as regarded what prisoner had said of Mrs. Harries witness never saw th" slightest symptom of encou- ragement given to prisoner by that female. Two master tailors, from Drayton, gave the pri sonera good character ; and Mr. Slaney endeavoured lo impugn the indictment, and to shew that no lb eft had been committed by the prisoner taking tbe watch under the circumstances given in evidence. In summing up, the Judge paid a high eompli ment t< j Mr. Slaney for the manner in which be, as counsel, had defended the prisoner, so much in con trust with the course the prisoner himself had adopted. His Lordship observed on tbe desperate situation women who kept shops would he in, if fello< vs should be allowed to obtain articles from them under such circumstances, and then go un punished. The story he gave of himself was indeed a very pretty story, and if ihe Jury believed that this second Joseph, who, having been charged wilh stealing- Mrs. Harries'* property, thus stepped for. ward to blast her fair character, destroy her reputa tton, and cut off her prospects in life, was th injured and innocent individual he represented himself, why llien they must be prepared to disbe. lieve the positive evidence which had been given v to his conduct and subsequent iTigut to Shiffual. If they, however, believed tbe evidence, ihey and all present must consider the enormity of the wickedness of the prisoner's defence as almost unparalleled. A certificate of prisoner's good character, pur- porting to be signed by a number of individuals, was handed up to the Judge, who threw it indignant!, from him, and observed thai the parties who had signed it, if genuine, should have been there to have been cross- exaniiuf d. The Jury immediately found the prisoner Guilty In passing sentence, Baron GARROW said, the prisoner had been convicted o- i as clear and con- clusive evidence as had ever come before a Court of Justice. The manner in which' he bad endeavoured to defend himself by destroying the character of the person whom he had robbed was most detestable. The house- breaker, the highway robber, and the footpad, when they committed their crimes, risked themselves in their acts; but tbe prisoner had not even this negative quality, for he joined to all the vices of those criminals that cowardice which, could alone have induced him to set up ihe defence he had adopted ; and for doing which, added fo the crimes lie had committed, he deserved aud shouid receive fhe most extreme punishment tbe law awarded.— He was accordingly sentenced to be transported for 7 years.

Mr. Cureton had, be said, at a former Assizes been rewarded for his similar exertions iu tbe public service.— The Learned Judge said, he would take care to attend to the recommendation ml, after thanking and complimenting tbe Gentle- men uf the Grand Jury for their services, he ( lis charged them from further attendance.] MANASSEH BOOTH was found guilty of stealing a smock frock, the property of Richard Humphreys, out of a stable at Hopesay ; be was also tried on n'n indictment for attempting to enter burglariously the bouse of Miss Mary Bach, at Astou, iu tbe same parish, but be was acquitted on this indictment, because, though it was evident he, with a companion, were making the attempt, they had only broken partly through the wall, and therefore as no liol- e was^ made through into the house, the indictment could not be supported.— It appeared from the evi deuce in these cases, that on the night of the 4th of November, Miss Bach was disturbed by hearing some person breaking into Ibe house ; her house having, as ofir readers will recollect, been previously robbed by a gang who were convicted for tlreoffenee. Miss Bach had a man name Davies sleeping in it for her protection ; she looked through tbe window, and saw a man watching about the bouse, und sli then called Davies, who got up v the thieves ran away; one of them escaped; Booth was closely pursued hv Davies; a cry of " Murder!" am] " Thieves!" was raised; an elderly female named Gardner heard the cry, ran out of her house, and caught hold of the prisoner Booth by the smock frock as he was getting overaslyle, and, nolwith standing he is a very powerful man, she kepi hold of him lill Davies and others came np und secured him.

Thomas Beddoes, nephew lo Mr. Wilkes, went 011 horseback in immediate pursuit of the prisoner ; overtook The Hibernia at Shitfnal, and found that the prisoner had left the coach and gone to the Star Hotel, where he found him in bed ; he had a watch wilh him, to which a gilt chain and gold seals were appended ; he there passed by the name of Hodgkin. Mrs. Harries now proved that the watch and seals found with the prisoner at Shiffnal were the same lhat she had lent him in Shrewsbury. The prisoner, who is stated to have been a preacher of the sect called " Ranters," 011 being asked if he had auy thing- to say in his defence, stroked back the hair of his forehead, and said, he stood there in a similar situation to that of Joseph when imprisoned for not yielding to the embraces of PHaraolCs* wife; that if he had yielded to the wishes of Mrs. Harries, he shouid not have been in bis present situation; that delicacy wmild not allow him to state what Mrs. Harries had proposed, but if he had acceded to her propositions he should not have stood oil that day a prisoner at the bar; and that he, however, looked forward to the period when he should be acquitted at the judgment bar of Christ. The Learned Judge asked Mrs. Harries if there w'as any truth in what the prisoner strid. Mrs. Harries said, " 1 can assure your Lordship t& ere is not the least foundation for this ; but, per- haps, he feels qualified thus to address your Lord- ship, as he is a lianting preacher." .3 5- 2. taasa 1 » ^ o 5- 5 is w C- O ; » n.: S T 3 ' w O o , ® • B 2. 5 ® s 0! s^ s- S' 3' 3 i sr ' k P 00 S5 05 o. -- - 5 2 - a ti ' a £ S" 5" 5" S' 5' 3' 3' 3' 3' 3' S CHAMPION.
