He ltrongly furpeEted the order to be falfe, forged, and counter feit, and that the prifoner forged it. He further timed, that on the 17th day of September, a yourg man, who laid his name was Thomas Scandling, i and that he had fel vest on board the Triumph, came to him at his office at Greenwich, and claimed the pay ment of fume prize money, which, he faids was due to him, for captures made by the Triumph, and on being (hewn the laid order in favour of the prifoner, which had been fent far payment by Mr. Peacock, the prifoner's agent, Scandling declared he had not figned it, or- given any order for the payment of his prize money ; and on the day the certificate purpor ted to be figned by Thomas Scandling, he was at Liverpool. Mr. Peacock proved that the order; purporting to be figned by Thomas Scandling, which lie prefented to Mr. Smith at Greenwich, was the fame that he received from the prifoner at Portfea.

Lieutenant Young, of the Royal William, Rated, that the lignature of Robert Young to ThomasScand ling's order, purporting to be his fignature, was a forgery. Jeremiah Craymore, of Liverpool, proved that Thomas Scandling lodged at his houfe on the 19th of September to the 24th of oElober ; In that it was impoflible he could have figned the order, as it pur ported to be figned on tie 24th day of September, at which time he was at Liverpool.

ROBERT FIRC:VVID, ESQ . • Mr. TuPPING applied fu a title to thew cause rtfor the trial rf this aEtion, fir criminal c •nverrticn; fhould not be p•r(ipuned trail the fittings after the next term. Ile moved it upon the atlifavit of the Defendant, alt. fw tre that a Gentleman, rcfidentin Paris, of the name of Crauturd, was si material witneis on his behalf. The ATTuitNiY GENFRAL Said, that the noble Plaintiff in this !nit wouid not relit} thisapplicati.:n. were he nit fully convinced that it was made only for the purpufe of delay. Neither was it a cafe where it could be expeaed, that a party would voluntari ly* , l content to interrogaTries, eipecially where the wa nds was a gentleman domitiled at Paris in an enemy's country. Mr. Janice °toss raid, that on thefe occafions the Court ufually expected fume Itaternent in the affidavit, that the witnefs who wis abfcnt might return at a partictilar time; but nothing of that kind appeated here. Mr. Tot.pl,;(; replied, that the defendant had had nn oppwttinity of writing to Mr. Cratifurd, to obtain any inf. rmation upon the lubjeet ; but he hoped that their Lordthips would grant a tole to Thew court. Mr. Gmtaow obferved, that if the Court Should grant the Application, from any czpeaation that the Cuunfel for the plaintiff would advile Lord Elgin to confent to it, he, as one of thefe Conde:, mull fay that he Should offer no Such recommendation. Lord ELLF)IIS:.*ROUGH reMAlked, that this point had been decide,' in Lord Wyenntbe'b cafe. He would he breaking in upon the eflalalithed tu!e of the Court, to grata the °Nod of the motion; merely upon the expeetwion that the ',titer party would con tent to a commiffi .n to examine witnclfes upon inter rogatories. Mr. _Mike LawafracF fail, that he avrehended that this was a caule in which fonnthing brionti the prefent a6tion wzs looked to by the Plaintiff. Mi. GARIVIW anfwered, that there was at prefent a fuit depending, inilituted by the Noble Plaintiff, in the C.'urts of Scctiand, to obtain a divorce.—Rule refuted. 'nig KING V WILLIAM WILLIAMS. The defendant was brought up to restive thejudx ment of the Court, he having been ctnvieed at the IA York Mize., before Mr. Jullice CHAMBLE, of aflanit upon Edward Abbey, on the 24. h of Sep tember, 1806. Mr. Jolliet Ls !haste read the report of the trial, which Owed, that both the parties were a:lending Dinealier Races, when the profecutor fftred the defendant to bet upon a hotfe called ; it was accepted, and the refult was in favour nt the proleentor. The following day they met in t e lireet, when Mr. Abbey demanded the payment o' tuenty ruinea , , as the (urn won by him. The d reodant refuted to pay, alledging, that the bet con !r teed was only fix to four, and that four guineas was all that could be demanded. This funs the pturecuto: refuted to accept ; and when the parties met upon the race ground, the demand was repeated by Mr. Abbey on the principal Stand, in ate pretence of the Prince of Wales. The defendant, in itated at this fu 'poled impofitian, told the prefeeittor he was a liar and a feoundrel ; and thefe cpprobrious expref lions were repeated by the latter. The defendant immediately railed his fill, and fit tick the profecutor fn violent a blow under the ear, as to deprive him of his fenfes,and force the blood to guth out of his mouth. The affidavit of the defendant extenuated his offence, by liating, that the affaull was committed during a moment of irritation, railed by the fulpi eion that the profecntor was endeavouring to impofe upon him, by infilting that the Let was lo to ata guineas, when in fait it was only 6 to 4 guineas. Mr. SCAILET, for the defendant, urged, that Mr. Williams, in his affidavit, did not nab to call any imputation upon the charaeler of the protect:tor : his only delire was to let himfclf right in the eyes of the world ; that it might not be foppofed, that he had refuted to pay any bets he had made. He ruf peeled, that Mr. Abbey was taking advantage of the public lunation of the race course, and was endea vowing to obtain the money from him, by Willing that the bet was much higher than the defendant had ever engaged in during the whole comic of his life. The truth was, that Mr. Williams had no in tention of vili:ing the ground, but palling through a - mealier on a northern tour, he was, from motives of curinfity, induced to attend. Mr. PARKE, for the profecntion, trniked, that canduel like that of the Defendant's w-)uld not go unpunifhed with the greated fever ity. It might not be the with of the Defendant to vilify the charaller of Mr. Abbey, but whether loch was his defire or not, it is certain that the charaelcr nt the Profe cutor had been molt grofsly attacked. The expla nation of the tranfaetion was this : at the time when the bet was made, the Profecutor had in his hand fume 51. notes, and balding them up to the Defen dant, offered him 6 to 4, or pt. to 201. This cit.- cumflance was mulaken by the Defendant, who con. ccived, that what the Profecutor meant was only 61. to 41. 'The Wank was molt viAent and unprovekei, and the Defendant might thank the mercy of thc Profecutor, that he had not proceeded in another form, by which his gods and chattels might have been forfeited, and his pcsfon imprifoncd for two years. _ . _ The Court fentenced the Defendant to pay a fine of z5l. which wai. immediately ditCharged. SOLOMON DAVIS. This perfon had been c. , nvieed at the Middlefex Q2arter Sefflons of bfory, and had been febtenced to fix months imptifonment in Cold bath fields gaol. Mr. SCARLET, this day, moved for a writ of Halm: Corpus to bring up the body into the coiloily of the Martha' of the King's Bench, that he might be charged in an action of debt. The ground of the application was, that this man had formerly been in partnerfhip with a perfon of the name of Levy, who had fence quitted the country, and it was apprehended, that Davis would follow his example as fool as he was releafed, and thus evade the payment of scoot. The Court refuted the application, becauf: there appeared to be no authority on the books ter depriving the keeper of Cold bath fields plifon of the cittiudy of a ctirrinal upon any loch pretence.
