There were present about fifty Magistrates, amongst whoin were Lord Leslie, Sir John Frederick, Sir Thomas Turton, Colonels Kensington and Gates kell, Messrs. Sumner, Kenrick, &c. &c. After the usual process of swearing in the Grand Jury, charging them, and calling aver the High Constables, the Report of the Committee of Magis trates, for appropriating a sum of money for making a better approach to the Gaol in Horsemonger-lane, was taken into consideration, and was made an order of Sessions. Mr. Kin:RICK thought it a wanton, useless, and im provident expenditure of the public money ; and, to gether with Dr. BUcifANAN, objectedAo the motion for agreeing with the Report, admitting that the Burd'epor and Treasurer's account ought to be paid and allowed, if recognized by the Court. Colonel GATKSICELL and Mr. SUMNER, who were on the Committee, defended their proceedings, and animadverted on the conduct of those Gentlemen, who bad scnt to the Public Press any kind of intima tign out a point not determined by the Committee to Whom it was referred. Lord LESLLE, Sir THOMAS TVRTO:C, Sir JOHN FRE- Drum, and six other Magistrates, debated the point, and the result was, that a motion of censure, which had been moved against Mr. Kegrick and Mr. Bu chanan, was done away, - and the Report of the Com mittee cotirmed. LOIDoW SESSIONS, JAN. 10. TIM XING V. JOHN SAMS, =WU ISAMS t MID LAW- IRENCE LqAACI. Mr. KNAPP stated, that this was an indictinent ip for an assault on Lewis' Levy, the - beadle and door• keeper of the Jewish Synagogue in Leadenhall-street; it was not a common assault, for it was made in a house of worship during divine service ; it made no difference what religious persuasion, or what doc trine was held forth ; it was equally to be protected with the established church, while tolerated by the mild Government of the country. The elder priso ner, as a rdember of the society, ought to have shewn the other prisoners, his , sons, an example of piety and obedience to the doctrines of his church, instead of instigating them to commit a riot in their house of Worship. lie would not attempt to state the evi dence, as it would Come much better from the wit- Lewis Levy deposed, he is a beadle and door keeper to the Synagogue, and knows the defendants. His duty is to stand at the bar of the Synagogue, aid to prevent persons not entitled to enter from pas sing it. He received orders from the Elders of the Society, on the 6th of October, not to let the defend. ant, _John Isaacs, pass the bar. About five o'clock he came, when the witness accosted him politely, and told him he hoped he would not take it amiss, but he could not let him pass the bar, having received crders to that effect. The defendant John replied in most outraeous manner, making use of oaths, that he would pa ss the bar in spite of Dim or his Elders. The witness told him not to swear, and reminded him that he was in a house of worship. He answer ed, " D—n you and your Erders ; I wal jump over the bir.'"fhe witness told him, fhe did he would - turn him out. He stood about fifteen. Minutes, and then departed, saying, "he would be d—d if be would not bring assistance nest day, and force his way." On the day following, the elder defendant returned, accompanied by tie two other defendants,' his suns. The witness was at his statian at the bar. He asked for admittance, which the wiiiiess refused. Tire defendant John, and his eldest son Letvis, took hold of the Witness by the -collar, while the ,younger son pushed him behind., They did not let him g o until a constable came and forced their hold. Qv of the Elders gave charge of them, and they :were taken tat the - Mansion House. There was suck a noise and riot, that they were-obliged to stop the service. • On his cross examination, he said, he h a d b een seven ran door-keeper to the Synagogue, and that d ie el er defendant had been a member during that t tie. -- _ Emanuel }fart and Blozham corroborated the evidence of the . first witness. Mr. Asher, one of the Elders, and Treasurer to the Synagogue, deposed that the elder defendant had been espeiled from the inside of the bar, by the El ders if chit 'c'ciety for m s conduct, M. 04.1141D4 Counsel fcr• the defendant, contend eel, L.. 74: td( cider defent.idikt had as znu.:. rpt to • o to his seat inside of the bar as he had to go into his house ; he pfbid rent for both ; and if it were pro per to use force in one case, it was equally justifiable in the other. The RICCORDU summed up the evidence, and the jury found them all guilty of the assault. The Court then passed judgment on them—that John Isaacs, the father, should be confined one ' month in Gilespur-street Compter, and give security for his good behaviour for one year ; and that the other defendants should pay a fine of one shilling, and be discharged. 4.. The Jewish High Priest, dressed in his robes, at tended by several of the Elders, sat on the Bench. The Court was crowded with Jewish people. There being no Luther business, the Session was adjourned. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. PERJURY.—THE KING 'V. IURDOII. I Yesterday.--The Defendant in this case is Alex ander Burden, Esq. a gentleman of fortune, residing in the county of Derby, and the Prosecutor is Charles Browning, Esq. late High Bailiff of Westminster. In the month of August 1804, Mr. Browning propo sed through the agency of a Mr. John Monkton Hale, to sell to the Defendant an annuity of 4001. per an num, at six years purchase. The bond of annuity was afterwards executed ; and in the beginning of,the year 1808, Mr. Browning moved, in the Court of Common Pleas, for a rule to shew cause, why the bond and warrant of attorney should not be set aside and given up. This application he supported by an affidavit, in which he stated, that the sum agreed to be advanced to him, as the consideration money of the annuity in question, was 24001. that afterwards two several deductions were made by Mr. Burdon from the sum so to be paid, one of them amounting to 1001. for insuring Mr. Browning's life against that of his mother's, Lady Louisa Browning, and another amounting to 261. as the expenses incurred by Mi. Burdon, by living in town a few days longer than he intended, for the purpose of completing the transac tion with Mr. Browning. Farther, that he (Mr. Browning) had stipulated only for am annuity for his own life, whereas, when the deed came to be read over, it proved to be an annuity during the joint liv7s of Mr. Browning and Miss Emilia Burdon, the niece of Mr. Burdon, a child of six years of age, and the life of the survivor. He then objected to the bond on account of the life of Emilia Burdon having been inserted in it, but Mr. Burdon refused to pay the money on any . (Ater condition, and Mr. Browning being in embar rassed circumstances, was obliged to comply. Mr Browning had also to pay out of this sum, the ac count of Mr. Andrew Lovering Sarel, the attorney for Mr. Burdon, amounting to 1101. and also to pay a farther sum of 2501. to procure Mr. Burdon's con sent to his disposing of his office of High Bailiff of Westminster. On this shewing Mr. Browning ob tained his rule, and Mr. Burdon, in shewing cause against it, filed an affidavit, in which he negatived almost every word stated in the affidavit of Mr. Browning, particularly the fact that the consideration money was 24001. the consideration money being as stated in the bond 2'2741.; and the 1261. the difference between that sum and 24001. not being any deduc tion from the sum actually agreed to be advanced, but a short payment on account of the security not being so good as it was represented to be. He also denied that Mr. Browning had ever, at the time of executing the bond of annuity, objected to the name of Emilia Burdon, as one of the lives for which the annuity was to be granted. In consequence of this affidavit of Mr. Burdon's, the rule obtained by Mr. Browning for setting aside the bond, &c. was dis charged. The present indictment was now preferred, charging the Defendant with perjury, in the affidavit so filed by him. Mr. ALLEY and Mr. Azeorr opened the case for the, prosecution, and were followed on the same side by Mr. Serjeant BEST. Mr. Browning was the first witness examined, who swore to the same facts as stated in his affidavit in the Court of Common Pleas. On his cross-examina tion he stated, that objections had been made to the sufficiency of the security, but that the deductions from the 24001. were not made on that account. Mr. Gideon Fly, who was clerk to Mr. Sarel, the defendant's agent, at the time of executing the bond, recollected that there was some observation made by Mr. Browning, who expressed surprise at hearing the name of Emilia Burdon. Also, th.it there was mention made of 1001. for insurance, and 261. for expences. Mr. John Monkten Hale also spoke to the same facts. Mr. Serjeant SHEPUERD (s upported by Mr. GAR- Row, Mr. CONST, and Mr.easel-) conducted the defence. He particularly dwelt on the direful effects of a conviction for perjury, which must, to a mind of sensibility or feeling, be worse than death itself: It was therefore only where the evidence was incon trovertible and conclusive, that the Jury would give effect to an accusation of this sort, particularly against a person of respectable character, who could have no inducement to involve himself in a crime which must stamp him for life with infamy. He argued that Mr. Browning was an interested witness, and that without Miss the evidence for the prosecution amoun ted to nothing, they being contradictory both to Themselves and to Mr. Browning. He should call Mr. Sorel, who was present, and would completely give the lie to what had been stated by the witnesses far the prosecution, so far as it could be supposed to bear on the question. Mr. Sarel was accordingly examined. He read over the bead to the parties previous to its being exe cuted. He heard all that passed, and did not observe the prosecutor to make any objection to the name of Emilia Burdon as one of the lives ; neither was there any conversation as to insurance or expences. On his cross-examination, however, he would not take on him to swear that no such objections had been made; them was some conversation while he was reading the deed, but he cu not understand that to have been its effect, else he would not have allowed the deed to be executed. Mr. Benson, a respectable conveyancer, who pre pared the deed, stated, that it had from the beginning been one or two or more lives. The consideration money had been altered ; it had originally stood at 23001. and had been altered into 22741. Mr. Serjeatt BEST, in a most animated and able reply, contended, that even the evidence for the De fendant had proved the perjury. The draft of the deed itself, which could not lie sheaved that, at least, to the extent of the 261. the Defendant was perjured —but he submitted that, to the whole extent of the affidavit, the evidence for the prosecution was con clusive. Mr. Browning had been said to be an in terested witness. He was not so He had already been foiled in a Court of Law, and could not try the question there again. He might, to be sure, go to a Court of Equity, but there the conviction could not be received as evidence. The really interested wit-; ness was Mr. Sarel, who, having sworn in-affidavit in the Court of Common Pleas, for which, as well as the Defendant, he might to-morrow be indicted, was indeed interested in preserving, as a proper witness, the only person who could serve him on his trial, and that was the present Defendant. After a very clear charge by Mr. MAINWARINC, the Chairman, the Jury deliberated for upwards of half an hour, and found the Defendant Guilty, but recommended him to mercy on account of his cha racter. The CHAIRMAN expressed his approbation of the verdict, and the Defendant was ordered to. be con veyed to Clerkenwell prison. The case occupied the whole of the day from ten in the morning till nearly eight. J. BAXTER and Co.

NATURAL HISTORY.—At day-break on the fid of Ja nuary 1809, an enormous fish was descried at half ca ble's length from Penryn quay, steering towards the town,and three boats, underthedirection of Capt.lluNx were. manned to attack him ; the first he inclosed, as it were in a pond, formed by a circular curve from head to tail, without doing any injury. A man then courageously cut a hole in the dorsal fin, through which he rove a hooked rope. Upon feeling this, we fish attempted to put to sea, but being diverted by some hard blows on his snout, he sheered towards the Falmouth road. A three-inch rope doubled was wen parbuckled round him, which he instantaneously snapped. A hawser from the quay was next applied to him, when, after dragging a sloop's anchor, tearing up a moorstone post on the quay, and staving a boat, he was brought into shoal water, and, it being ebb tide, subdued. He was afterwards towed round by three boats, and with the tackle of a sand-barge and the exertions of 20 men and three horses, he was drawn upon the slip of Colonel Heame's quay, where he remaineda few days for the amusement of the curious. He measures 21 feet long, 19 feet round, 9} feet high, 7i feet mouth • and his weight is supposed to exceed five tons. Although the general appearance and disposition of thi fish approach more towards the whale than the shark, he is undoubtedly a male of the Squalus Genus, being the Squalus Maximus, the Baskiiig Shark, or Sun-fish ofPennant. It abounds in the Irish Channel, and on the West coat of Scot land. It has been observed to derive great pleasure from basking on the surface of the ocean during the' heat of the day, whence both its English denomina - lions. • The liver of this kind yields ou an average eigl:t barrels of oil, which is not only pure, sweet, and 4t fctr lamps, bat is also much used externally for relieving bruises, burns, and rheumatic pains.
