On Wednesday week came on the trial for breach of pi utilise of marriage. MARY ANNE SPOAKTfiIr W. WILLIAM GRACE. This was an action fora breach of promise of mar riage brought against the defendant, who is a Cap t tin in the Royal Queen's County Miiitia and tried at the Spring Assizes in 1815, when a verdict was given for the sum of £3,500. This verdict WAS afterwards, tin application to the Court above, set aside, and . a nonsuit entered upon the defendant. It came down again for trial at the present Assizes, and, after a most patient investigation, the Jury found a verdict for £3,596, being a sum of sef.;6 more than the for-, rner one; and the am( unt of the costs of the nAnsuit, which the plaintiff wascompelied to paythe defendant. LIBEL. The case of O'Gorman v. Magee was called on Tuesday morning, at ten, before Serjeant Jong soN.—As the merits of this case are very well known in Dublin, there is little need of stating them circum stantially.. By the publication of a libellous speech of Mr. O'Gorman's, Mr. Magee lost £lOOO. In animadverting on -the circumstance, Mr. Magee was not very reserved in his language; and, among other epitbetcof &bine,- he had, at a particular time, called Mr. o o'Gorman a "dishonourable blockhead." This, however, was after a philippic against Mr. Magee by Mr. O'Gorman at an aggregate meeting. Mr. Ma gee, in his defence, maintained, that as he used his paper for the purpose of attacking Mr. O'Gorman, end as Mr. O'Gorman called Ireland together to attack Mr. Magee, the injury was mutual, and no damages could follow. He besides set forth, that he deserved the character he gave him, and several witnesses were called (among whom was Colonel Martin, the late Member for Galway) , who declared on oath that Mr. O'Gorman's public representation was that of a very foolish and injudicious politician, • and a.petson who had injured the cause be professed to support. Mr. Martin took occasion in declare, that he had the most unquestionable author ity for believing that emancipation would have been granted three yeari age, were it s not for the Catholic Akan% Magee also gave evidence to skew that Mr. O'Gorman was himself a libeller, and therefore not cattiest to damages. The • trial lasted until one o'clock in the morning (15 bouts) and the Jury re turned a verdict of £1.50 d images, and 64. costs. • A few days ago, a family in die neighbourhood of Preston applied to a druggist for some Spring Physic, and purchased what was thought to be cream of tar- Or and sulphur, but which proved to be some poison. .9us substance ; for in consequence of taking it, a tine boy of nine years of age died in great agonies, ar,d Lis father and sisters had perished also, it the clergy. wan of the place had not judiciously and promptly applied proper' remedies. and bowed them. ; • • - OLD BAILEY. •••••••••••me Yesterday eight prisoners were tried, seven of oboes were convicted of felony, viz.

Gene Dame was capitally indicted for having shot at Frances lotaria Kelly, with intent to kill and murder her. Another count charged him with shoot ing at Edward Knight, with intent to kill and mur der him. Mr. MAR/IRAK opened the indictment ; and Mr. GURNEY stated the circumitances, as detailed in the following evidence : Mr. Nathan Harris was a jeweller, and was at Drury-lane Theatre on Saturday, the 17th February. He was in the pit, on about the Bth row. Prisoner sat about two rows before him, towards the right:— When , he first perceived him, he stood up when others were sitting down. Miss Kelly and Mr. Knight were then on the stage, in the Farce, in the charac ters of Wen and Jot, in Me Merry Mourners; it was in the centre of the stage. Mr. Knight was on the right. and Miss Kelly on the left of the audience.— Miss Kelly retreated towards the stage-door on the left ;,and as she got near it, he saw prisoner stand up above all the rest, holding his right hand towards the side of the stage where Miss Kelly was standing. The moment he heard the report and saw the flash, he leaped for ward and seized prisoner. lie said he was not the man who had tired the pistol, but wit ness said he was. The flash came from his right hand. and he saw the wadding drop down, lighted, as soon as the flash was seen j prisoner had imme diately dropped his right hand. Witness took him 'across the seats till he got farther assistance. He was taken into the avenue, searched, and a small black pen-case was taken from his pocket, which contained gun-powder. Crowexawined.ly Mr. DOWLING.—He would swear that the pistol was discharged at tke place where Miss Kelly was standing,- though he knew not whe ther it was fired at her. Prisoner appeared very much agitated, but went out very peaceably. - Mr. G. Rorauer was standing at tne end of the pit, at the corner of the orchestra, on the King's side. As he was looking at the performance, be saw a flash, at about twenty-five feet fronwhim ; lieheard the shot rattle against the float of lamps on the front of the stage. He saw prisoner taken into custody. though he could not exactly tell that the flash'pro ceeded from him ; he made his , way out of the pit, ordered the doors to be closed, and requested that no one might go out : he then assisted Baker in searching the prisoner. These were found on him a small pen-case, ccutaining gun-powder, a quantity of thot, and the key of a pistol. They went to the office, at Bow-street, and a Mr. Taylor produced a pistol, stating, in prisoner's presence, that he had found it close to him, in the pit; he then examined the pistol, which appeared to have been recently dis coarged. Mr. Bimie was at Bow-street Office when the pri soner was brought. He took the depositions, and askedthe prisoner what he had to say, warning him of his dangerous situation. He thought he did not answer him on being first questioned. On the second querioning he said, he fired the pistol to create an alarm. tie then asked him how he pointed it so ? to which he answered, a She can explain," not men tioning Mist Kelly. Crospexamnsed.—There seemed to be a sort of gloominess about his eyes. Mr. ltorauer re-examined.--Had gone to the Theatre afterwards, and found marks of shot in the front of the stage-door, and sonic in the door itself. Some shot were found in the orchestra : they were very small shot. It appeared they had struck against the board and gone down. The shot were of the same size with those found is prisoner's pocket. Crow :moaned ly Mr. DOWLING.—Miss Kale was about nine feet from the stage-door when the pistol was fired. The shot had made a dent in the wood and dropped down. Prisoner looked wild about the eyes, and appeared to smile. Edward Knight was performing the chiracter of Joe on the night of the 17th }Oniony. He was standidig on the stage near the centre. Miss Kelly was on his right hand, looking towards the audience. He saw the flash of the pistol from the pit ; but did not see the person who fired it. lie thought he heard a rattling of shot striking the orchestra. Miss Kelly was performing on the night of the 17th February, and saw the flash, and heard what she supposed a detonating ball, with which she had been formerly very much alarmed. She had no ac quaintance with the prisoner, and had never seen him to her knowledge in her life. She bad not seen him till at the Bar. Crors-exermined.—She had received two letters sign ed 44 Barnett," which she gave to Mr. Movie. One ,of them was brought to her on the 14th. John Baker, a Constable, was in attendance at the Theatre on the night in question. He bad head the report of a pistol, and made his way to where he heard at. He saw witness, Harris, holding' the pri soner. He searched him, and took from him-pow der and shot.—[The powder and shot were pro duced.)—Mr. Taylor had produced the pistol in the presence of the Rrisonen Witness had afterwards gone with the prisoner to Tothill fields prison. He asked him bow he could think of doing, so rash an act ;—was it his intention to kill Miss Kelly ? He said it was his intention ; but added, that the pistol was not loaded with ball or slugs. He went to pri soner's lodgings in Princes -street, Drury-lane, and found a pistol the fellow of that found by Taylor, and some shot, which corresponded wish that found' on be person of the prisoner. Cron•exawiend—Prisoner,, on his way to Tothill fields, said, it was his intention to shoot Miss Kelly. On the Monday following, .witness asked the priso ner it be was not sorry for what he had done, and he made a sort of a laugh without saying any thrng. S. Dickons, another constable, went with Baker to Tothill-fields with prisoner. Bakee asked him, if ht meant to shobt Miss' Kelly ? He replied; that be did, after a 'pause of a minute sr two. Baker asked, why he did If ? to which be said—" She knows very (well what it was fors" Hare the eeidcaoe closed, when, at the instance of Ur.

" I am, Madam, your well-wisher, a GLORGL SAIINITT:i Mr. DOWLING now announced his intention to call evidence to prove the insanity of the prisoner. The prisoner, on being asked by Mr. Baron WooD. said, he had nothing to say in his defence. John Crocket had married the piisoner's mother. The prisoner, when a boy, was always reserved and gloomy; he would not play with other boys. At times lie was very queer, and at his meals would burst out a laughing without reason. He was ap prenticed to a law-stationer; he went down to Seven Oaks, in Kent, as clerk to an attorney ; he had not been long there, when witness was sent for by his master to bring him away, from the bad state of his mind. When he went down, he found him standing in the (rimy of a Gentleman's house, hewing; he had great difficulty in getting him away. About a fort night after, the prisoner went to Yarmouth ; he re turned in five .weeks, and went to work with Mr. Norcroft, a law-stationer. He went to several other plates, but was always low and melancholy. Three or four days before this transaction lie was particu larly low. He burst out into a laugh; and on being asked what he did so for, he said he had a thought in his head. - On cross-examination, the witness said, he never had put the prisoner in confinement, or had medical advice for him. He was harmless. Mrs. Crocket, mother of the prisoner, said he was the son of Mr. Barnett, who was a waiter at the Piazza Coffee-house. She remembered his return from Seven Oaks. He seemed very ill, melancholy, and low spirited. The last week before this affair, he appeared very uneasy and very uncomfortable. On Saturday, the 17th of February, the day on which be committed the act, he was particularly uneasy. She remembered his firing a pistol in the yard on that' I day. She did not see much of his mind the Jew days before Saturday. She knew he was going to the play on Saturday. She never knew of his having a pistol till the day in question. He was very un settled in his mind. Mr. Norcroft, a law stationer, with whom the pri soner had worked for a year, deposed, that in his opi. nion his close application to business had injured his health. Witness recommended him to Mr. Claridge at Seven Oaks, who wrote to him soon afterwards, complaining of the prisoner's state of mind. Witness sent bis father for him. He was correct ininisiness till a day or two before the offence with which he was charged. He then appeared in a very disturbed state of mind. Mr. Riordan, aleo a law stationer, spoke to the dis turbed state of the prisoner's mind, Mr. Claridge was at Seven Oaks when the priso ner was in his father's employment. He once obser ved the prisoner standing opposite a Gentleman's house at Seven Oaks', gazing earnestly at the win dows. He was surrounded by a mob, who wete mocking him. This was in July, 1815. He was sa. tisfied the prisoner was not then in his right mind.—i In talking of theatricals, he said he could play better than Mr. Kean, and was often incoherent in his manner. The Lady with whom the prisoner lodged at Seven Oaks, also spoke to the circumstance alluded to by the last witness, He sometimes sat in church with his hat on, and, in tact, conducted himself in as insane manner. Mrs. Mary Haggerty lived in Castle-street, Hol born ; the prisoner lodged with her. She knew the prisoner. Once, when one of her children was dying, she asked him what lie thought of it ? He went to the sofa on which the child hty, and, after looking at it earnestly, laughed in her face, and quitted the room. He often danced all night in his room, and was guilty of such extravagances, that it Was her firm belief he was insane. Mr. Want, a surgeon, thought the prisoner insane. Mr. Baron Woos proceeded to sum up the evi -1 Stance. With respect to the letters which had been mad, he aid that they bore evident symptoms of rmsanity.—The Jury found the piisoner Not Guilty, on the ground of insanity. He will, of course, be isnOrsiened for life. , Nothing could exceed the interest which this trial melted. The body .of the Court was crowded' to l excess by respectable persons, among whom we obser ved most of the dramatic corps. The prisoner was plainly dressed, and stood per fectly quiescent during his trial, occasionally looking 'at Miss Kelly with a faint smile. ... . • . . MLDALESEX SESVIOTS.
