CELEBRATED TRIALS and REMARKABLE CASES of CRIMINAL JURISI'RUDENCE.- Being a popular Account of extraordinary Cases of Crime and Punishment which have occurred during the last 400 Years, iu ihe United Kingdom, and tbe rest of Europe, and America, from Lord Cob ham, in 1418, to John Thurtell and Henry Fauntleroy, in 1824. Collected and Translated from the most authentic Sources in the English, German, and French Lan- guages. This Work is destined to supply the place, in the English Library, of t he well- known Causes Celebres in the. Libraries of France, from which the most in- teresting Cases have been chronologically inter- mingled with all those equally interesting from our own records. The trial of Lord Cobham commences the series ; but, in an Appendix, others anterior have been collected from tlie early Chronicles, asd a condensed View has also been given of the several. Trials for Religions Opinions, and for Witchcraft. The design of the Work, the first of its kind in our language, has been to avoid the technical prolixity of the fc State Trials,' and the vulgarity of the * New gate Calendar, 1 and to produce a popular and tasteful work, on a class of subjects which possess inexhaustible claims on Curiosity, and a never- failing intensity of interest.

' We understand, also, that his Lordship, with a consideration for the interests of his trades- people, by no means common, we are sorry to say, in the higher circles, himself called personally upon every individual with whom be had dealings, loexpies's his acknowledgments for their attention, nnd to ascertain that their account's had been punc- tuaihi settled. Lady Coniberinere too, to whose amiable character our highest eulogies would scarcely do justice, was by no means behind her noble and gallant partner, in all those offices of kindness which have endeared their names to the Irish nation. In her we lose the brightest orna- ment of our fashionable circles, and without her the Irish Court becomes a dreary blank."

Wynn, Bart, occasioned by an apoplectic lit, which seized him while returning from the chase .( in which he had attended his master), at Fulheck, about ten miles from Grantham, in Lin coliishiie.— As a skilful, daring rider, and quiet, civil fellow, Ned, the Whipper- in, as he was com- monly called, will long be remembered with friendly feeling, by the circle of sportsmen to whose gratification he was wont to contribute.— A Coroner's inquest was held on the body, March 17th, 1825, when Mr. Doir, of Aneaster, stated to the jury, that lie was riding immediately behind the deceased, who was walking his horse at a gentle pace, when he suddenly slid to the ground, without receiving any injury from the horse, or apparently from the fall.— Thomas Robinson, groom to Sir Richard Brooke, Bart, said, that he was riding just before the poor man, heard him fall, and turning his horse, saw him lying flat 011 the ground, moaning and convulsed, as if in a fit; that he tried to bleed him, hut without effect; that he appeared to hiin quite dead as he was binding up his arm.— Mr. Sharp, surgeon, informed the jury, thai he attended the deceased soon after he fell, that he attempted to bleed him, not only in ihe arm, but by opening the temporal artery, or jugular vein, but to 110 purpose, lie being quite dead; that he after, wards opened the head, and from the great fulness of all the blood vessels, he had no doubt but lie died from apoplexy.— The jury without hesitation returned a verdict, " died by the visitation of God." CRESTFR CIRCUIT.— Al the lale Denbighshire Great Session, the business was much greater than was ever known, and occupied the attention of the Court every day until 8,) 9, and sometimes 10 at night.— Two prisoners, for horse- stealing, bad judgment of cleotli recorded against tliein ; 2 for grand larceny, were sentenced to fi months' impri- sonment, and a third, for a like offence, one month's imprisonment; 1, for petit larceny, was sentenced to 3 months' imprisonment; 1 prisoner for being found in a wood near Denbigh, in the night- time, armed with intent to kill game, was sentenced to 2 years' imprisonment, and 2 others, for the like offence, to I years' imprisonment.— At Nisi Prius, in the replevin cause, E. Junes v. R. Williams ( Special Jury), a verdict was returned for plaintiff, on the first issue, and for defendant 011 the others. I11 the Issue out of Chancery, Davies and another v. Edwards and others ( Special Jury), a verdict was returned for defendants. A third Special Jury case was referred, and in a fourth, the Record was withdrawn. In the case, Price and Williams 11. Jones, a verdictwas returned for plain- tiffs; and iu . thoseof Parry u.' Roberts ( for trespass), and Parry u. Jones ( for debt), verdicts were returned for the defendants. One common jury case was referred, and in another the Record was withdrawn. Al Ihe Flintshire Assizes, Charles Hall, for Ihe manslaughter of Thomas Oxford, in a pugilistic contest, arising out of a quarrel, at Connah's Quay, was sentenced to 2 mouths' imprisonment; John Williams, for poaching, to be imprisoned 2 years ; Cornelius Williams, for stealing a ham at Holy- well, to he imprisoned 2 monilts; and William Jones, for stealing 6 reams of paper fruni the paper- mill at Greenfield, to be imprisoned 12 months. At Ihe Anglesey Assizes, there was not a prisoner for trial. 1 To be SOLD, or LET for the Season, \ VERY superior GREY CART ' A HORSE, rising four Years old.— Also, a HEREFORD BULL, got by a Bullof Mr. Pryce's, of Malvern ( hired by Mr. Yarworth at great Ex- pense), and out of Young Margaret, own Sister to Trojan and Warrior, all of the very best Tomkins' Blood.

[ FROM THE SPORTING MAGAZINE.] This most extraordinary man, and very first- rate sportsman, being now in his 75th year, may, with- out affectation, be said to have arrived at the full honours of the field. Mr. Lockley was born in the 50th year of the last century, at Barton Hall, in the county of Derby, once the residence of the Prosector Cromwell. From thence he went to Boscobel House, in the county of Sal op— b u t just on the confines of Staf- ford— where lieOccupied a very large farm, und6r. lea'fee toMVis father, from the ancient family of the FitziVerbdrts of Swinnerton, in the last- mentioned county. Here Mr. Lockley resided exactly fifty years ; and o, n the estate being sold, he removed to his present residence, Amerie Court, near Persbore, in Worcestershire, where he occupies a considerable farrh under the present Earl of Coventry. The history of Mr. Lockley is somewhat remark- able. When young, he was much inclined to get fat; arid observing the inconvenience of his father's Weight ( 28 stone, jockey weight), he determined to adopt any measures to avoid it; so by severe exercise, short sleep, and rigid abstinence, he reduced himself from 17st. to 13st. 101b. at or about which weight he has ever since continued. Being blessed with hig: h health, a great flow of spirits, an| i vast bodily strength, no labour fatigued him uor was any hour of the morning too early for him His farming and other business— for he has always had a large stud of horses, brood mares, colts, See about his house— were managed with all possible dispatch, as his early habits gave him ample time for fox- hunting, racing, and shooting, at the pro- per seasons of the year. In shooting, his practice was widely different from that of modern times. I have heard him say, that he used to shoot over fifteen miles of country in a straight fine, and return home by a circular route, in the same day, wUhoutever getting* upon a horse; and, as I my- self can vouch for, he had an excellent breed of pointers. On the turf, Mr. Lockley is one of our oldest masters of race- horses now living ; and iu most of h is specnllit i ons ( which, as far as h is own h orses were conct tiled, were confined tothe country courses) had his fair share of success. Fox- hunting, however, was his favourite pursuit; and here, for two or three seasons, he achieved what was never attempted, or even thought of, by any other man. lie was in the constant habit of hunting with tbe late Sir Edward Littleton's fox- hounds on Cannock Clwise, whose hour of meeting was at day- break ; and after their morning's sport was over, he used to go to the late Lord Talbot's hounds, whose country was on the otWr^ side the Trent, and whose hour of meeting was? eleven. Three convenient bridges over the TTefit afforded him this facility; and he frequently had the pleasure; of seeing a fine day's sport with each of these packs. Modern men may ask, How was this done ? The only answer to which is, that uq. day - was ever too long, neither was any night e^ iH^ oo ; dark, for this determined sportsman. Ea. fly: hours, and temperate -- living-, no doubt assisted hiui ; and for the former he was always remarkable. Four hours'' sleep, he was wont to say, were enough for" a thrasher; and I well remember a description the late Mr. Stubbs was used to give of a run wilh Sir Edward Littleton's hounds, VvlVich he always prefaced by saying,%< l)' f: ea.; k£ ® $ ted with Lock ley at twelve o'clock at night. Barbarous , as this hour of meeting must have been, have often listened with pleasure to. the aniniMihg accounts I have heard both these old sportsmen give of finding their fox hy the drag usDrag on him 1 Drag on him, good hounds !" was with Hhem a kind of prologue to the play. Some part of Sir Edward's hunting establishment, in deed, . must have borne some little resemblance to a farce, having heard Mr. Lockley say his pack were a mixture of barriers, fox, and stag- hounds, aud would hunt any thing. Sir Edward, it seems was of opinion that the harrier made them turn short ; tlie fox- bound gave them speed; and the buck- hound nose; and thus, by a sort of unity of acquirements, lie sought for perfection. On thing, however, is remarkable. Being lord para mount of Cannock Chase, he had the right of killing five brace of deer annually, which these hounds accomplished in the proper season, returning steadily, afterwards, to the chase of the fox ; and in tke- iast year of their homing they killed, or ran to, graurid, seventeen successive days, witbou i: nissitig-: a. fox. To complete the whole, their hunts riian', lij is asserted, was never known to laugh, or to swear. Mr. Lockley relates a singular anecdote of a small bitch in this pack. She went away, singly, with a fox from Tidde. sley Warren, and killed him at Farrall, near Lichfield, a distance of ten miles, and the fox and bitch were brought home together These hounds were given up on account of Si Edward's health ; and old Sam, the huntsman, was ept, with two couples of beagles, to hunt hares for dinner, mid to drive the deer from the corn fields of the tenants. Not a bad picture of former days. There is no part of Mr. Lockley's life that creates away for Ash by pasfuris; over Burrow- lull ; thro* RanksborougMi- gorse, tQ Wh is ten dine.; and . killed him near to Lord Harborough's,; after a tine run of one hour and forty minutes ; iii the course of which Mr. Lockley was more fhan once cheered , by Mi". Osbaldeston, who, no doubt, was pleUsed to bee an old one going so well. I have listened many hours to Mr. Lockley j'when recounting tb; v hunting of his younger days, with hounds which were not within my own recollection. Amongst those which he termed " within jeach of himwere the packs of Lord Donegal ; the Earl of Stamford ; the Honourable Noel Hill^ afterwards Lord Berwick ; and the Cheshire. Mr. Hill's hounds had a country extending, from' ten miles below Shrewsbury, to Lutterworth, in Leicester- shire^ a distance of seventy miles; and - it was in hunting with thetn^ on the Lutterworth side, that Mr. Lockley got a taste of that country which leaves' all others in the shade, and in which Mr. . Meynel! was, at that time; iii his glory. Mr. Lock. ley'visited it for tweri'ty successive seasons, taking up Lis resi- dence either at Quorn, Loughborough, or Melton Mow bray ; but more frequently at the former place, where, I have often heard him say, having free access to the kennel, he profited by tjie improve- ments and refinements which Mr. Meyuell was perpetually in pursuit of, s and he has frequently acknowledged, that in spite of all the thousand miles lie had ridden for the purpose of seeing hounds and countries, yet when in the presence of that gentleman lie found lie vfs- s but a novice in fox hunting-. . J, Riding over a. country was, doubtless, Mr. Lock- ley r% forte; and so great Was his reputation as a rider, and as a first- rate judge of a hunter, that his present Majesty, when Prince of Wales, introduced him to the late Lord ( then General) Lake, in the following manner General," said his Royal Highness, let me introduce you to Mr. Lockley : two such great men, in their way, as General Lake and Mr. Lockley, ought to be known to each other." There is one thing highly to be commended in Mr. Lockley's choice of his best hunters ; and that is— the respect he lias always paid to blood. 1 think I may say I have seen eight out of ten of the hunters he has had these last twenty years; and 1 never remember to have seen one low- bred horsi . iMontgomeryshire Estate.

Three times in one year he rode the same horse from Newmarket to his own house iii one day, being 104 miles; and on another occasion he rode a galloway from his own door to Northampton, and back again in the evening- making a distance of 120 miles. Three years ago, be was seen by a friend of mine on the course' at ' Newmarket one evening. About noon the next day but / one, he was met. by another friend of mine within six miles of bis own house ; and, after • efreshing himself, begot upon another horse, and was in Shrewsbury fair at six o'clock the next morning. What makes this most extraordinary is, that my friend who saw him at Newmarket declared to me, that he would not have ridden his horse ten miles- to have possessed him, at the end of it. He was, however, peculiarly marked, and therefore could not be mistaken ; and we may presume that he came under the denomination of " arum one to look at, but a devil to go." The year before last, this extraordinary horseman performed what might almost be termed a miracle at twelve o'clock one day ; was at the fight between Spring and Neate by one o'clock on the next; rode home with me to my house after the fight; and, in spite of all I could say to the contrary, was in London by four o'clock on the third day— making 162 miles in 52 hours, on the same horse ! It is only necessary to see Mr. Lockley get up on is horse to be convinced that lie was born to be a workman on a saddle ; and perhaps his predilection for it cannot be better illustrated than by relation of the following familiar dialogue, which took place about two years since beiweeu myself and his room, which I shall give verbatim. The groom, I should observe, has been with Mr. Lockley since he was a boy— having been brought up under his old stud- groom, Backland, who had, for so many years, the care of his large stud at Bos- cobel : — " Is your master at home, Jack ?" " No, Sir ; master is out, somewhere " Does he dine at home r" " Yes, Sir, he does." " Then put my horse into the stable, and I shall dine with him." " Have yon any idea where your master is gone ?" " Not I, indeed : he may be twenty miles off, by this time." V What, then, Jack, he rides as much as ever he did, does he V f With a deep sigh)—" Oh yes ! He is always at ' em. He never g- ives ' em no rest: he pretty near tires two a day." " Why, whither does he go, Jack ?" ( t God knows, Sir, where he g* oes. Sometimes he goes to Parsher ( Pershore) ; sometimes lo Asum ( Evesham), Tewkesbury, Worcester, Gloucester ; and he is for everlastingly riding backwards and forwards to Newmarket and back. Then he has got another farm about three miles off; so he rides from farm to farm, and from cow to cow. In short, I don't know where he rides to, but lie's always at ' em." " Is your master quite well, Jack ?" " Why, yes, thank God, master's pretty fresh now; buthe. has been very poorly since his acci- dent; and he tells me be took a waggon load of physid." Mr, Lockley has been a particularly good rider over a country; and, strange to say, it was only last year that he distinguished himself in three of the best days of the season, with the Warwickshire, Sir Bellingham, Graham's, and Mr. Osbaldeston's bounds Sir Bellingham's run was from his favour- ite covert, High Oun, and Mr Osbaldeston found his fox in what is called Cheney's Oorse. He went amongst thein, which is sayingagreat deal, fora man who rides 15 stone. To what is called " a cock- tail," or a half- bred race- iiotse, lie always had au insuperable objection ; but he has won, and walked over for, a great many hunters' stakes with those which have been thorough- bred. In my account of Warwickshire, I spoke of a gentleman named Havvkes, as a very first- rate sportsman, and one of the. best gentlemen jockies of his day. Between him and Mr. Lockley so close an intimacy subsisted for many years of their lives, that the names of Havvkes and Lockley fell as natu- rally upon the car as Forester and Cholinondeley, Rawlinson aud Lindo, o'r even Castor and Pollux. Neither w as the - friendship betvr- een Scipio and Lsslius more ardent than theirs, for what the one said, the other generally echoed ! Mr. Hawkes was in Leicestershire several seasons, with Mr. Lockley ; and in point of judgment in hunting, Mr. Meynel I certainly gave him the . preference, observ- ing- of Mr. Lockfey, that " riding- over a' country was his forte /" Mr. Loekley's person is in perfect symmetry ; but we must al! yield to the influence of time, and be would have been a better subject for the pencil twenty years back. u What a pity it is," says an elegant, but very forcible writer, " that God should break his own best workmanship into pieces, and demolish, by thousands, the finest structures of his own building!" But thus it is: Nature has fixed the limits of youth, beauty, and vigour, to us all ; and though wre may struggle against her, she will make a ruin of us at last. As Milton, in a fine strain of melancholy, observes, we fall into " ( he sere and yellow leaf;" and when our hour comes we drop. Mr. Lockley, however, may be said TO give, the lie to time ; and had it not been for the accidents— amounting to the almost incredible ' num- ber of seven, in two years— from horses, carriages, &. C.— which he has met with, he would still be ridi « g aiiy distance to meet, hounds ; w hereas lie has unfortunately been confined t. o his couch for the last three months. His passion for fox- huiitiug still holds the same power over his mind ; and, in the fatigue he was last season able to undergo, he | is a striking instance of the good effect of a life spent in temperance, early hours, and field sport, contrasted vvith the softness of modern manners— perverting the order of nature, by passing the finest part of the day in a bed. In short, it may be said of him, as has been said of another— his ag- e is like the lusty winter— frosty but kiiK\ « y. There are many traits in Mr. Lockfev's character well worthy of imitation ; and his sins, as Lord Byron says, have been of " the softer order." In nothing, however, has he been more conspicuous, than in an uniform command of temper, and a stu- dious desire of avoiding giving offence. His hos- pitality, according to his means, has been proverbial; and he has been an excellent master to his servants ; and though it. cannot be said of hiifi, that his early days were spent in the " soft securities of retire- ment, or under the shelter of academic bowers," yet he has the command of language which would not reflect discredit upon either. As a companion, he is highly entertaining ; for, by the help of an excellent memory, he " draws all ages into one," as Seneca so happily terms it, and thus makes old age delightful. There is another part of Mr. Lockley's character which I cannot do less than admire, and that rs, what in sporting language may be called " the steady pace" at which he has travelled, so far, through life.

Rumour has fixed upon our race course as the theatre of a conflict said to be in contemplation be- tween a lion, the property of Mr. Wombwell, and six mastiff dogs,, to decide a wager for fare . thousand guineas, which has been for some time pending. Whether such an exhibition is really intended or no we cannot pretend to say, but this much we can state, from authonty, that if attempted within the jurisdiction of our city Magistrates, it will be determinedly put - down, and we are sure we may safely add that our Magistrates for the county will as determinedly exert, their authority to prevent any part of it being polluted by a proceeding so revolt- ing, disgraceful, and inhuman..

A few days ago, the following singular occur, rence transpired at Lane- End, Staffordshire -.— The Rev. T. Brooke, minister, had received the ordinary notice for a funeral at a certain hour; but on his way to the church, he was met by. the Sexton, and informed that the corpse was buried and he was too late ; that it was an Irishwoman, and tiie Catholics had performed the service, and paid the fees. It. is- said that the Priest was not present on the occasion; The Rev. Mr. Brooke'has avowed his determination to retain fegal possession of his own freehold, and to resist any other similar attempt. A tradesman of this city, and one or two others in the neighbourhood, have been seriously left in the lurch by a; Mr. Crossland, a corn- deaier, who having purchased goods of them to some amount, gave them cheques in payment, on Messrs, Hart- / ands' bank, in Tewkesbury, which, on presenta- tion, were met with " no effects and the drawer is- non - est inventus.

By the motto it would seem that we arc indebted to the late Mr. Burke for the plan of Ihis Work 11 is, indeed, very extraordinary that, till this publication, t. VIre- has appeared, ill the English language, no readable and truly popular collect ion of Trials, the subjects of which address themselves more closely to our passions and curiosity than any other iii the entire range of literature. This Work recommends itself because it altogether unlike Ihe ' Newgate CaleuiJar,' or the ' State Trials.' It is neither so low and vulgar as the one, nor so verbose and technical as the other ' l'hc lest, in the selection, has been the curiosity and importance of the Trial, and the object has been to preserve only ( lie interesting features of etch case, unless iu such as Mary Queen of Scots, Charles the First, Algernon Sidney, Lord William llussell, Haekman, Tburtell, and some others of singular curiosity; and in these a certain degree | of fulness has been preferred to brevity. The Work is, therefore, in every setise, a stand aril acquisition to onr. national literature; while it will afford an addition of universal popularity id all Book Societies, Subscription Rooms, and Cir- culating Libraries. It contains nearly FIVE HUNDRED CASES for Treason, Heresy, Sedition, Witchcraft, Murder, Forgery, Robbery, & c. & c.; and it excludes no class but those which involve details offensive to decency. Nor is il confined lo mere English Trials, for the Editor has availed himself of tint great work of the French callcti Can set Calibres, aud thereby brought into a focus all that is curious and valuable on his gene- ral subject. Such a Work, in its very plan, bespeaks its own SfWreH lo assemble- Ibe materials from the first authorities, aud many very scarce ones have been consulted, we may calculate the Celebrated Trials if Ihe English language will he, al least, as much esteemed as the Causes CS. lebrcs of our ueiglt. hours, on Ihc flippant and romantic style of which the English Editor has made some just remarks. T he text is enriched by a great number of l'or traits and other Engravings, from Prints published at the respective times; anil these add greatly to the worth of the publication; though nothing of that kind can much increase the intrinsic and paramount interest of the text. & iUe S> tmix an& © tittle. A Book of the greatest- value to Agriculturists in general', hut more especially to Breeders and Feeders of Cattle and other Livd Stock, is now completed, published by Mr. KELLY, of Paternoster- Row, under the title of " IMPROVED LIVE STOCK AND CATTLE MANAGEMENT." This Work, for which the Public are indebted to the late Dr. W. D. DICKSON, contains a mass of Original Information on the subjects uf Breeding, Rearing, Feeding, and Managing ev< uy species of Live Stock known in this country ; com- prising the results of many years practical experi- ence, a, nd personal observation, aided by a thorough knowledge of all the existing theories, qnd all the different inventions and experiments, which have hitherto been promulgated and applied to this im. - port- ant branch of Rural ( Economy. No Farmer, who is desirous of turning his labour and Capital to the best, advantage, and of avoiding the inevitable ruin of a . bad and wasteful syste Cattle Management, need now be without a most excellent Guide in both these objects.— The manner in which Dr. Dickson has treated the subject of Live Stock and Cattle Management is at once so plain, yet comprehensive, that even persons wholly unaccustomed to rural affairs may, by a perusal of this work, become well nnd speedily acquainted with the Management of Cattle and other Live Stock. Among the numerous subjects- discussed we may mention the Soil and Pasture best adapted to the different Sorts and Breeds of Cattle ;-~ the Peculiari- ties of different Districts as suitable Or otherwise to different Kinds ot' Cattle;— the various Objects and Intentions of the Farmer, the Breeder, the Grazier, and the Consumer, severally considered, in relation to the nat ure, quality, and size of Farms and Pastures, to their climate and to their locality, as being near or remote from Towns and Markets ;— the Value of the various Animals in all their different stages aud conditions ;— the means of ascertaining and selecting the Sorts and Breeds most suitable to the intentions of the Breederthe best method of Rearing Cattle and other Stock, with safety and with profit;— the best aud cheapest kind of Keep, at. different seasons of the year ;•— the Prevention and Cure of the Dis- eases and Accidents to which, at various ages and in various circumstances,, they are liable, including, amongst other - matters, a complete body of Veteri- nary Science, and a most copious store of the best. Receipts for Cattle Medicine;- the separation of such as are profitable for Stock from such as may be more profitably sold off', with the nwdes and seasons proper for ibis selection ;— the nature and value of the Produce of all the various species of Cattle, and other Live Stock., with the results of numerous ex-, peri me tits, particularly of Dairy Practice, the Fleece of all the various Breeds of Sheep, & Hides of Cattle. AH ithese topics, and a numerous variety of otlie ipterWoveu with the Natural History, ( Economy, and Management of every species of Live Stock, are ex- plained in so full, and yet so familiar a manner, that the dullest understanding cannot fail to comprehend tbfin. In short, the merits of this very useful and valuable publication are so self- evident, that its immediate popularity cannot be doubted ; and we should have been surprised, that a work so- highly important, and so absolutely necessary, had never been attempted before, if we had not known th difficulty of discovering an individual combining al the various qualifications requisite for such an tinder, taking in an equal degree with the Author, whose activity and patience, zeal and knowledge, practical experience and scientific acquirements, stand so strikingly conspicuous in the successful execution of his laborious task. Nor must we omit to render justice to the judgment and liberality of the Publisher, who has most richly illustrated the various Departments of the Work with Engravings, which, eveu in the present advanced The Catholic Association held its lasl meeting on Friday week, when it dissolved itself, after eiitrust- the money which has been raised to Lord Killeeu, to be applied by his Lordship to such purposes as it was raised for, or ( if any of those purposes be now made illegal,) to such of theni as continue to be lawful. The Association also voted aii Address to their Catholic countrymen, and re- commended the formation of a Society for providing education for the peasantry, " free from Sectarian prejudice, or proselytizing quackery." Our Indian finance never was in so flourishing a state. TOE estimated revenue of 1823 amounted to £' 22,283,623, while, five years before, it was only £ 18,375,820; nor has the charge increased in proportion, for, after paying the whole interest of the Indian debt, there is a surplus of £ 2,500,000. His Majesty's ship Maidstone, arrived from Sierra Leone, left that place dreadfully unhealthy. The Maidstone released on the coast nearly 2000 wretched Blacks, whoni she took out of slave vessels ! Tlie Orangemen of Ireland, on Friday week, in Grand Lodge assembled, came to a unanimous resolution to dissolve their body. We hope and trust that the individuals of that body will exert themselves to promote harmony aud cordiality. At a half- yearly meeting of Proprietors of Bank Stock, held 011 Friday week, a dividend of 4 per cent, vva^ agreed- to.-*- In answer to a question put to him, the Chairman stated, that the present issue of Bank notes was between 19 and 20 millions; that the advances which the Directors had made on mortgage, amounted to about £ 1,200,000; and that the sums advanced on the security of Stock, perhaps might reach the extent of £ 500* 000 or £ 600,000. VYiih reference to the forgeries of Fauntlcroy, he observed that the Directors had under their consideration the adoption of some new regulation to prevent forgeries on powers of at- torney. The greater part of the creditors of Mr. Long Wei'esley, whose demands were under the sum of £ 200, have recently been paid in full; and those whose demands were above that amount, and who signed the Trust Deed, have already received 10s. in the pound : and will shortly receive the re- mainder. Mr. Long Weilesley is expected in England about the month of September or October next. Mrs. Welieslcy and the three children are 1 now at Draycot, where Mr. W. will then join them. I Four young Noblemen, of illustrious families, are appointed to attend the Duke of Northumber- land, at the Coronation of the King of France. Those selected for this proud office are said to be Lord Pelham, eldest son of the Earl of Chichester; Lord Hervey, eldest son of the Earl of Bristol; Lord Prudhoe, brother to the 0uke of Northum berland ; and Lord Francis Leveson Gower, second sou of the Marquis of Stafford. MARQUIS OF BASTINGS.— On Friday week the ballot at the India House was taken on a motion the following effect:—" That although the Court acquitted the Marquis of Hastings of any corrupt motive in the pecuniary transactions be { ween the house of Palmer and Co. and the Nizam, yet they approve of the dispatch sent by the Court of Tlivpolin- s on the aul. jeet,, by which his Lordship was obliged to alter his conduct, and to withdraw the permission which, - it pun no pressing emergency, he had incautiously granted to violate the standing law of India." This qualified censure on the Mar- quis was carried by 575 against 306. Majority, 269. Colonel Berkeley has been horsewhipping Mr, Judge, the Editor of the Cheltenham Journal, for making some strong remarks on the Colonel's con- duct and relative to the late Berkeley Hunt Ball.— Mr. Judge intends to proceed against tbe Colonel in a Court of Law— where the Colonel has been before ! The whole Medical Board of the Bristol Infirm- ary, both Physicians and Surgeons, have sent in their resignation, on account of being excluded from attending tlie House Committee. In conse- quence, fifteen candidates are now soliciting to become their successor^. The Board have requested the House- Committee to suspend any proceedings in the matter for one month. A person of the name of William Glover, between sixty aud seventy years of age, who lived alone in a house at Asfordby, a few miles from Leicester, was murdered on Wednesday night, his head being beat literally to pieces. An empty purse was found in his hand, and hjs drawers, & c. were ransacked of every thing worth carrying away. A boy named Bird, on Monday, in pursuing a pea- hen, which had trespassed 011 a garden in the Dings, St. Philip's, accidentally trod upon the wire of a spring- gun, which lodged the contents in ihe thigh and leg of the unfortunate sufferer; be was immediately conveyed to the Infirmary, where there are hopes of saving the limb.— Bristol Journal. ; The Rev.

CAUTION TO OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.— Five women were recently detected at Tewkesbury, in obtaining money from the Overseers of that borowgh by means of counterfeit. War- Office Passes, certifying that they were soldiers' wives on their route home to Cornwall, from various regiments lately embarked 011 foreign service. The certificates had every appearance of being genuine, were filled up with considerable neatness and precision, haying the name of the applicants, the number and ages of their children, the signatures of the Commanding Officers, Magistrates, & c. In this instance, they obtained nearly £ 3 before the fraud was discovered ; and, had they, not continued making too many demands for other women, whom they stated to be upon the road, and whose fictitious certificates they had produced to the amount of nearly thirty, they might have departed without suspicion. On being taken before a Magistrate, they acknowledged their guilt and returned the money ; and from the evidence of one of them it appears that severa| men travel with them, and that they have long been practising , this nefarious scheme, in various parts of the coun- try, with considerable success ; she also stated that some of the party had, the same morning, proceeded towards Gloucester, and some to Cheltenham, where similar means were intended to be resorted to for obtaining money ; that they had provided themselves ( in Birmingham) with a sufficient number of these papers to carry them into the West of England ; and in the mean time afresh supply would be forwarded, to enable them to retrace their steps, or to go to any oilier part of the kingdom. The name and address of the person furnishing these papers, and other important information connected therewith, have been obtained, and transmitted to the War- Office; and four of the women and a boy have been commit- ted to Tewkesbury Gaol, until instructions shall arrive as to the course to be adopted in this iniqui- tous affair. invention of considerable importance has lately been made by Mr. Sperring, of Buckland, near. Frome, to relieve the wheel, horse of a two- wheel carriage, going down hill., it was publicly tried at Frome on Wednesday, before- several scientific gent Semen and others, and; found to answer the purpose to their entire satisfaction. It takes the whole weight from theHiorse's back, without removing the load; and very much retards the motion of carriages without being- in any way connected with the wheels. It is very simple in its construction, and may be altered „ at the top or bottom of a hill in a few seconds with great ease ; it may be also disengaged from the carriage, if not wanted, in two minutes. EXPLOSION OF GAS.—[ From the Edinburgh Observer of Friday.']—- Wednesday evening, about half- past eight o'clock, a tremendous ex plosion of gas occurred in a cellar in front of the house of Colin Mackenzie, Esq, of Port more, Shandwiek Place, Edinburgh. It appears that a gas ureter had been recently placed in the cellar, immediately under the steps leading to the frail door, and the distribution pipe not being properly united, the gas had escaped in considerable quantity. A young lad, servant to Mr. Mackenzie, anxious to discover the cause of the disagreeable smell which had annoyed him throughout the day, and ignorant of the danger, entered the cellar with n. lighted candle, when the gas instantly exploded with a terrific report. T' boy was killed on tire spot, and the cook so severely injured, that she is not expected to recover. The butler of another family, who was present, was struck speechless. Great part of the windows front of Mr. Mackenzie's house, and also - those in the two dwellings to the westward, belonging to Lady Menzies and Mr. Monteitb, were blown in; and several panes of glass were shattered in the windows 011 the opposite side of the street. Almost every house on both sides of the street as far as Stafford- street, has been more or less injured. The front of the cellar was blown out— The stone plates leading to the hall door dislodged, and several bars of the' iron - railiug, immediately above the centre of the explosion, were snapt asunder. Mr. Mackenzie's family were happily froiri home, and only two or three persons in ihe house when this melaneholy accident occurred. We treed scarcely add, that the families iu the neighbourhood were thrown into a state of great, consternation. Yesterday, Shandwick Place was visited b'y a vast number of inquisitive persons, anxious to ascertain the extent . of the devastations Referring to the above account of this melancholy accident, compiled from the Papers of Thursday, we bate to state from authority, that the accident was occasioned entirely hy the extraordinary carelessness and rashness of the unfortunate boy who has fallen a victim.' It appears that he was in the habit of frying experiments on the gas and burners; and that, in the absence of his master and family from ! town, he removed the burner from a pipe to which he had access, in a siffall and wholly uninhabited outhouse ( the dimensions of which were only six feet by four), without securing the gas by tlie stop- cock. The consequence was, that in a short time a very great stream of gas issued from the pipe, and filled the outhouse, where it was pent. up: and when the boy approached it with a light, it exploded with such violence as to cause his death. No blame, whatever, is attachable to the Gas Company, whose pipes, meter, & c. were in the best order; and the accident is one which is not likely again to occur. Equal danger might have arisen from the same degree of carelessness and imprudence, in tampering in oil, spirits, or many other inflammable substances. On Monday week, • as Mi*. T. M. Downing, Commoner of Lincoln . Coilege, Oxford ( only child of Thos. Downing, Esq. resident near Nautwich, Cheshire), was rowing on the Cherwell, he by some means fell out of the skiff', and was drowned, near Gadney's collage. Although the hapless youth was heard to call out for assistance, none could reach the spot iu tiine^ ahd the body was not found for two tiours.— Ami. same dav* and nearly at the same hour, Mr. Charles Field, of Trinity College, aiid Mr. William Tyner, of St. John's, Cambridge, were drowned by the upsetting of a canoe or skiff", in which they were rowing on the River Cam. It was three hours before their bodies were found. ABRIDGEMENT:— John Smith, convicted of horse- stealing, and John Dawes and William Dawes, for burglary, were executed at Winchester, Saturday week - At Lancaster Assizes, Robert Robinson, for burglary, was left for execution. Joseph Wilkin, tried for the murder of his wife, was convicted of manslaughter, and sentenced to be transported for life.— At Derby Assizes; George Ratty ( a married man, with a family), aged 35, for a rape on the daughter of a respectable farmer^ aged 16 years, was left for execution.—- Mr. Mtmhead, Receiver- General of Jamaica, has failed ; his defiei encies amount to £ 80,000 : his predecessor in office was indebted to the island £ 90,000 when he died.— An acre of ground, on the West Cliff, at Brighton, was sold on Saturday week, in i5 lots, for £ 8500.— Paper has advanced in price 10 per cent.— The " in- habitants" of Westminster " met" on Thursday, in Palace- yard, to petition for a repeal of the house and window taxes: Sir F. Burdett, Mr. Hobhouse, & e. supported the petition; but as these gentlemen and their friends did not fall in with the views of Orator Hunt, he mured the rejection of the petition, and his motion was carried! after which, the Burdettites alleged that Hunt had tricked the assembly out of the petition ; and Hunt was finally hooted and pelted by the mob !!— Cambridge University has now on it's boards 4700 students; Oxford, 4660.— On Wed. nesday last, John Ferguson and James Lintott, con- victed of burglary, and William Walker, convicted of robbing a silversmith's shop, were executed in front of Newgate, London. pla HOUSE OF COMMONS- MONDAY. Mr. CCRVVEN, in presenting a petition from certain corn. dealers in London, praying for permission to bring into the market about 400,000 quarters of corn, several years in bond, took occasion to declare his opinion, that amid the general removal of restrictions and monopolies, now effecting by the Ministers, the Corn Laws could not be much longer maintained.— Mr. HUSKISSON expressed his satisfaction at the change in Mr. Curwen's opinions; and suggested that the subject of the petition presented by him might be most conveniently considered in th » dis- cussion of Mr. Whitmore^ s motion upon the general policy of the Corn Laws, which was fixed to take place soon after the recess ( 28th April),— The petition was laid on the table. HOUSE OF LORDS— TUESDAY. A petition was presented from the inhabitants and the corporation of the city of Oxford, stamped with the civic seal, praying that the laws excluding Roman Catholics from political power might be preserved inviolate. HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. Mr. LITTLETON gave notice, that on the 21st of next month he would move for leave to bring in a bill to regulate the elective franchise in Ireland. Lord F. L. GOWER gave notice, that on the 26th of April he would move for leave to bring in a bill to make, a provision for the Roman Catholic Priests in Ireland. Mr. Alderman THOMSON presented a petition from the Merchants, Importers of Foreign Corn, and others, praying for an amendment of the Corn Laws Mr. DICKENSON presented petitions from the Arch, deaoonries of Bath and Wells, and Taunton, against submission to the Roman Catholics. He explained that the Petitioners were sensibly alarmed at the efforts made industriously in their own immediate district, to pervert Protestants to the errors of the Church of Rome. Mr. HUSKISSON moved for a Select Committee, to inquire into the effect of the repeal of the Combination Laws. The Right Hon. Gentleman introduced his motion by a long and very able speech, in the course of which he gave some very striking examples of the gross tyranny exercised both upon their employers and their fellow workmen, by the confederated arti- ficers at Lanark and at Glasg'ow, and at other nianu. factoring towns, and by the combined sailors in tin Port of London.— Mr. HUME defended the repeal of the Combination Laws, and recriminated upon the em ployers most of those charges which Mr. Huskisson had alleged against the working classes. He con- fessed, however, that in Dublin, where the combined trades had pursued their objects by the commission of murders, and other violent measures of intimida. tion, the workmen had gone too far.— Mr. PEEL entered into the question at considerable length, and with great eloquence. He declared that the mis- chievous eff ects of combination had, risen to so great a height that the strongest measures had become necessary. He said that he could hot hesitate meet the evil by directing against it, if necessary the civil, and even the military power of the state : but expressed a hope that the discussion of the sub- ject, in the House would apprise the confederated workmen and sailors of their error and danger, and of the determination of the Legislature to protect the property of the employer as well as the labour of the employed.— The motion was unanimously agreed to and a committee appointed. At the Worcester Assizes, an action for an alleged libel Was brought against the proprietors of the Worcester Herald. Tlie nominal plaintiff'was a man named Davies, a painter, in the employ of Messrs. Anderson and- Perry, of that city, and the defendants were Messrs. Chalk and Hoil, who, in reporting in their paper an account of a disturbance in the streets of Worcester, stated that one of the assailants was " Davies, in the employ of Messrs. Anderson and Perry," whereas it was another Da- vies. On the cross- examination of Mr. Perry one of the employers of the plaintiff', he stated that the plaintiff' had said that Mr. Godson, the lawyer, had taken up the cause, and that it wonld coist the plaintiff' nothing. Upon this evidence, Mr. Russell, on behalf of the defendants, observed, that the plain- tiff' had sustained no injury, and that the attorney had urged the action for the sake of getting costs for his own pocket. The Judge summed itp, and gave it as his opinion that the paragraph was a libel, and the Jury having deliberated lor nearly 20 minutes, found a verdict for the plaintiff with no damages Mr. Justice Littledale, however, inforhied them that if they found for the plaintiff at all, they must find some damages. They then returned a verdict for the plaintiff-— Damages One Farthing. At Stafford, a Special Jury case was tried, Rex v. James Amphlett. Mr. Campbell and Mr. Evans conducted the case 011 the part of the prosecution, and Mr. Jervis and Mr. Ludlow 011 that of the defendant. It was an indictment for a libel Messrs. J. and W. Ridgway, published in the Pottery Gazette, of which paper the defendant is proprietor and printer. The libel was contained in au article headed u The Miseries of the Twelve Apostles," and assuming Messrs. Ridgway, who are highly respect- able earthenware manufacturers at Shelton, to be connected with arrival paper which had lately been established under- the title of the Pottery Mercury, was intended to vilify and traduce their character, by imputing to them a defraud on the revenue, and designating them under various opprobrious appel- lations. After iVIr. Campbell had detailed the case, he called six witnesses, who proved that the Ian guage of the libel was generally understood to apply to Messrs. Ridgway, Mr. Jervis delivered a long aud ingenious address in behalf of the defendant, but called no witnesses, and the Jury, after an able and eloquent summing up by Mr, Baron Garrow, immediately found a verdict of Guilty ; which having been delivered, his Lordship said, he should have considered it a melancholy day for ihe happiness and security of the characters of his countrymen, if the Jury bad hesitated about the verdict they had given.— Sentence will be passed in the Court of King's Bench. LANCASTER ASSIZES.— Libel.— SIIAW versus DIXON.— The plaintiff in this case resides at Black- burn, and is a clothier; nnd the defendant is the editor and publisher of the- Bolton Chronicle. The action was brought to recover eoii! pensati » n for a wanton and unfounded libel, published by the de- fendant, of and concerning the plaintiff. The plain- tiff was in the habit of travelling up and down the country for the purpose of vending his goods. On the 17th of January last he was in Bolton for that purpose, and uot. having disposed of all his goods, deposited them iu a room at the George and Dragon public- house, where lie was stopping, and on the following thorning it was discovered that a consider- able quantity of his cloth had been stolen. He put into requisition the usual means to endeavour to detect the perpetrators of the felony, but without effect. The landlady paid the plaintiff for the goods lost, which amounted to about £ 40. The defendant, in a paragraph in his paper, stated that he had examined the premises, . antf made every possible enquiry on the subject, and that he had every rea. son to believe that no robbery had taken place, but that the plaintiff" had either taken away the goods him- self, or consented to their being clandestinely re moved, in order to charge the landlady with them, who was by law liable for all such losses in her house. A justification had been pleaded, but expunged from the record by consent during the Assizes.—- Mr. Brougham addressed the Jury for the defendant.— Verdict for plaintiff, damages £ 30, Libel.— WELCH v. FELL.^— JVlr. Scarlett stated that is was an action brought to recover damages for a gross and malicious libel published by the defend ant, of and concerning the plaintiff, in a newspaper called the Kendal Chronicle, which had been pro- voked by no animosity, no difference, no ill will, no occasion, not even by that feeling which some men entertain of gratifying their own vanity by exhibit, ng themselves in public. It was a grou- ndless calumny on the character of this gentleman.— The ' iHutiff was a merchant residing in the town of , ancaster, but at the period at . which this libel ppeared was about transferring his residence to iverpool. He was also a public accountant, and as considered fully qualified to conduct such en- iiiries. There was a Lunatic Asylum in the neighbourhood of Lancaster, which was formerly nder the superintendance of a person of the name of ' night, a surgeon in the Navy. He also united ith the laborious office of supemiteudant the lucra- ve employment of treasurer.— The defendant was pon terms of intimacy with Mr. Knight, but in consequence of his having, written certain anonymous letters in a Liverpool paper, which called for an nswer of some severity from Mr. Knight, a quarrel ensued between them. Mr. Fell then made certain ommunications to the visiting Magistrates of the Asylum, charging Mr. Knight with peculation, which endfd with an enquiry into that subject, "' he defendant, the avowed enemy of Mr. Knight, was appointed referee on the part of the Magistrates, nd Mr. Welch was nominated by Mr. Knight— A iiborious and tedious investigation ensued, iu which Mr. Fell was charged with withholding certain documentary evidence from the plaintiff, and. desired ' 111 to proceed upon the best inquiry he could, as he ( Mr. Fell) had made up his mind ou the subject. An umpire was appointed, to whom Mr. Fell handed over all his papers, and Mr. Welch made a report of the result of his inquiry, and handed it to him, upon which the umpire made a report. At, a subsequent meeting of the Magistrates, Mr. Knight was, upon hat report, dismissed from his situation at the Asylum.— Soon afterwards a letter appeared in a , iverpool paper, reflecting' upon the character of the plaintiff' as an arbitrator in the matter, to which, considering it to have been written under a mistaken view of the subject, he wrote ail answer, to satisfy his friends of the utter falsity of the statements, which by some means got into the public papers, and amongst the rest the Kendal Chronicle. The de- fendant wrote in reply thereto. Mr. Welch was a gentleman of undoubted" integrity, impartiality, and honour, but he was, in this reply of the defendant's, charged with cunning, imposture, and trickery in the arbitration. He had acted to the utmost of his ability and information on the subject; was it then to he tolerated that Mr. Fell should attack the cha racter of a fellow- citizen without auy provocation whatever? He called upon them to give serious damages, as it was a case which peculiarly called for them, and to teach this defendant that, although the public press was a great and inestimable blessing, it should not lie prostituted for the purpoSei of torture ruin, and oppression.— Mr. Lough, the Editor of tin Paper, proved the authorship and publication of th ® libel*— Mr. Williams, in a speech of Considerable length, contended that this was a fair discussion upon a matter of business arising between the parties, and that the plaintiff was the first who stepped into the arena of contest, and had provoked the present article. If a hasty expression had escaped from the defendant, in his vehement zeal on the subject, to support his own opinion and report, he hoped an allowance would be made for it. The defendant, from the declaration of the Attorney- General him, self, had no malicious motive towards the plaintiff; whatever might actuate Mr. Fell, he had 110 rankling / eelirigs of ill will towards Mr. Welch.— Mr. Justice Holroyd commented upon the case, and declared it in his opinion to he a libel.— The Jury retired for short time, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff- damages £ 200. IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.— At the Lancaster Assizes, R. Reed was charged with killing and slaying Ellen Dickinson, at Ghorley, under the following circumstances:— He was a farmer, and amongst his cows he kept one which was . ootor ously mischievous. He had frequent occasion know that it was'dangerous for any person to go near it j several persons had been hurt by it, and the woman in question at last fell a victim to ils fury. She was passing through the field where and mangled her in so dreadful a manner, that she died in a few days after.— Mr. Justice Bayley told the Jury, that if a man kept an animal, which he knew to be maliciously inclined, and did not Jake measures to prevent it. either by confinement, or by other means, from injuring other persons, he was responsible for the consequences.— Guilty. SCOTCH MARRIAGES.— A case of ejectment of considerable importance was tried at the Lancaster Assizes. The plaintiff, an infant of tender age, brought by his friends an action to obtain possession of certain property in Manchester which had be- longed to his deceased father, Mr. Peter Davenport Finney, and which was withheld from the plaintiff' by the defendants, Roylance and others, 011 the ground that he was not the legitimate son of Mr. Finney, his mother never having been legally mar- ried Jo him. It was also contended, as a ground for resisting the claim of the plaintiff', that his father, in his own will, had described him as an illegitimate son, and had bequeathed him a property of £ 20,000 as such, he being fully aware that his son could not succeed to his estate in law. In the case of the plaintiff", his mother and several other witnesses were called to prove that a marriage liad taken place in Scotland some time after the parties had cohabited, and before the plaintiff" was born. The mother and Mary Wilmot, the servant, deposed that the deceased had read the marriage ceremorty from the book of Common Prayer, and desired the servant to bear witness that they were fairly married. Several per- sons proved that subsequent to this ceremony the father of the plaintiff' had acknowledged his mother as his wife, and that this alone, according to the law of Scotland, was sufficient evidence of marriage. Mr, Campbell, a Writer to the Signet in Scotland, on beifig. exaniiued as to the received law'of Scotland 011 the subject of marriage, stated that the mere expression of the consent, of the parties before witnesses was sufficient to render a marriage'valid, and a passage from Mr. Erskitie's Institutes* to the same effect was read in Court. The Learned Judge, in summing up, said he considered the validity of the marriage clearly established, and that the impression upon the mind of the deceased that his son was not legitimately born could not set aside the received law of Scotland, which recognised his legitimacy. The Jury, without hesitation, found their verdict for the plaintiff", by which , he becomes entitled to estates of the, annual value of £ 1500. * The passage read imputed " that the consent of parties was essential to marriage in Scotland; that sdeh consent might be either express or tacit^ that the cere- mony tnight be repeated by a clergyman, but neither was : it essential that it should be repeated by a clergyman, nor repeated at all; that the consent of the parties given . before a civil magistrate, or witnesses, was sufficient; that it might be expressed in a written document; that the subsequent acknowledgment of the paaties themselves was sufficient, if not jocularly made; and that marriage was to be presumed from cohabitation, where the parties were reputed to be man and wife."
