White straw hats are much worn ; those with . flat rims are two fingers broad, .having round the crown, at equal diatancet, three circles, each of vahieh is formed by three a kite ribbons; three white • feathers placed ice flora, bend over the crown ; they have also broad ties, half silk and half gauze, striped rose and white, lilac and white, Pistacke and white, or yellow and white. When a iai . phu is used instead of rib bon, it is striped with the same colours. Flowers worn in wreaths aft generally of two sorts. Several florists have studied to compose singular flowers; they have, for instance, made moss roses, one half of which was a rose and the other a chesunt stalk. To common roses they join the leaves of tyre thistle, the maiden hair and the tulip ; they have 'also invented' the blossom of May with thorns, for trimming.— Wreaths of roses and lilac, or jonquils and lilac, and large garlands of lilac wily, are most in vogue.— ..7 , 7am: are still worn on black spencers, but long matted gold chains art more genteel. White robes of very fine muslin, with the bottom and the shoulders bound with colours, are numerous. On the evening of Tuesday a btirglary was corn. mitted on the house of Mr. N. Harrison, of Sutton, farmer, by T. Nord:, of Beverley Park, and six others, , who broke open the door of the house; but upon the alarm being given, and J. Conk, the constable, and a number ot the inhabitants assembling, they made a precipitate retreat. On the following day, how. ever, North hired a number of the most abandoned characters in the neighbourhood of Hull, and.at night '25 of them proceeded from the Labour-in-Vain, at South-End„, armed with bludgeons, and headed by North, for the purpose of breaking a second time into Mr. liarrison's premises. T. England and J. Stat k, two Constables, having received information of their intentions, collected a number of men, and proceeded after them to Sutton ; upon reaching that place they found G. Harrison, the brother of N. liar. rison, in the street, in Its shirt and night-cap, who informed them that North sad his party had broken into his brother's house, and threatened, if they made resistance, they would murder them : that himself, his brother, brother's wife, and.a labourer, had leaped from the chamber window without clothing and that Mrs. H. was very much hurt by the fall.— The constables having collected a sufficient force, proceeded to Harrison's house, where they fucceeded in taking North, and fifteen of his accomplices, who underwent an examination on the following day be fore J.

The KING V. FUTOt S. beibis da • •• :, -- y this very interesting trial was proceeded ht, when the Court was crowded to excess. The pei ,sank Thews and J.4ft Fenton, Esqrs. were indicted far the murder 'of . John Hillas, Esq. by killing him, Ott a dttel. Mr. VANDILIIUR, as Counsel for the Crown, laid before the Jury the following statement of the circum stances in which the prosecution had originated : Upon the 6th of lase December, a vessel was cast. ashore by stress of weather, etabn the coast of Tive nigh, near the residence of Major Hillas, wbo was an active Magistrate, and a young man of the most humane disposition. A Roman Catholic clergyman of the name of Burke, sent to inform him of this un fortunate Occurrence. He immediately hastened to the spot to discharge his duty at a Magistrate, and fulfil his natural O K linations as a man. The Captain, he found, had fallen noel board ; and to hls exertions, duriag the entire• of a datk and stormy night, the s.eety of the mate, and of eleven of the crew, was c:iieHy to be attr'enal. His object in so acting re buffed merely from motivesof humanity, and was far from originating in any pecuniary consideration. — While he was in this laudable pursuit, Mr. John Fen ton, one of the prisoners, came up, and interfered in a manner which appeared eo him not to ba very cor ' feet : an altercation arose; and the result was, Mr*. John Fenton's telling Major Hines, " that, if he in terfered further, he would throw him into the sea." He, however, continued his exertions from the 6th to the Bth of December, on which day the other prisoner, Mr. Thomas Fenton, arrited with a body of yeomen, and forced the property out of his possession. It was in vain that Major Hillas remonstrated; it was in vain that he declared his object was not salvage, and that he was only endeavouring to save as much as possible from the wreck, for the benefit of the owners. Bring.in this manner frustrated in his intentions, he made a journey to Scotland, where the owners resided, to order to make them acquainted with the circum stances of their loss; and on his return, Mr. John Fenton sent him a message, which, however, was de clined, upon principles which, he must say, appeared to him perfectly justifiable. Thus the matter rested until the 30th of January. when Major Hillas and Mr. Fenton put in their respective cl.ucns before Mr. Wynne and Mr. Irwin, two Magistrates, who were appointed to investigate. the matter. Major 'Elias disclaimed before them having been actuated by any 1 pecuniary motives, and. professed that he came there merely to gave the violas of the respective partivc clearly ac.cettaitted. It was up al this eiccasion that the ciicumstances arose inwhicO the ~ 1 . .iel orig:nated. Major Hillas complained that he had tweis treated unhanNomely by Mr. Thomas Fenton, who !:ad in terfered uejustifiably, and, by taking the mate out or his hands, secured to himself in an iinhandsonw manner the legal custody of the vtasal. Mr. Wynne and Mr. Irwin investioa:ed the transaction. In four days after the itivestigation clooal, Mr. Jelin Fenton delivered a message to Major Baas, in the name of Mr. Thomas Feuton, the result sit which was fatale° Mr. Hillas. The following witnesses were th.'n erara;ned : James Moffat knew Major Hillas : he di , d by a •pistol shot fired by Thomas Ftuton ; he was on the ground at Ktlmacowen, in the county of Sligo ;• was there berme the parties were placed on the ground; saw the ground measured ; Fenton and Hiram walk ed backwards and forwards on it; they passed each other twice ; Fenton was first placed on the ground, then Hillas took his ground ; thinks from about a minute or two before Hillas was placed on his ; .ri m. not say who handed Fenton his pistol; when he had it in his hand, John Fenton cattle up and pushed in Thomas Fenton's arm, opposite to Hillas's hip, lie then stood between him and liillas, who also had his pistol ; he stood immediately before Thomas Fenton,• he cannot say how long before the word was given, but he remained there about ten seconds after ; J let then stepped aside, across the muzzle of Thomas Fentort's pistol; Mr. Jones did the same towards Hillas; he thinks he retired a little before Fenton re tired ; after that they fired immediately: Fenton tired first, And Hillas fell : the two shots went off just as one mig ht say 44 one, two." On is cross-examination, he ,said, when John pushed Thomas's elbow, the effect was, that he pre. seated a less front to his antagoniat—it protected his body; after the ground was cleared, both were at liberty to fire immediately ; lie saw lianas before the transaction ; he gave him a paper to copy about ten days before ; on reading it, be remarked, that the language was very strong, and calculated to irritate: Hines said, it was not strong enough for such con duct, and that, if stronger could be used, it ought to be inserted. Dr. Ar.• strong is a professional man, and at tended the deceased as such on the ground ; he saw Loftus Jones, the deceased, and Capt. Wm. Feu all, .on the. ground; a stone marked the gad where Hilts stood, another the sped where Fenton stood ; when witness came to the stone on Hillas's side, lie moved it a little from a rising ground, where it %VAS, down to the level ground ; John Fenton asked him why he did so ? he answered. because the place was not level ; when on their ground, Hill is addressed the crowd; he was not certain that Fenton heard him ; he said, '4 I am sorry the mistaken laws of ho nour oblige me to come here to defend myself, and I declare to God 1 have nteanimosity to any man or woman on the face of the earth ;" John stood before Thomas, he moved his hand a little up and, down ; Jones stood opposite Hillas, they each moved away. On MI cross-examination he said, that he is con nected by blood and marriage with the deceased ; Captain Ferrall was friend to lalillas ; there was no better judge of the laws of honour ; believes Ferrell tossed up fur the choice of the ground, and won it; Hillas wits dressed in black ; when he threw off his frock, he bad on a bile's waistcoat with black sleeves to it; he saw Hillasatt Captain Soden's house shortly • before the duel, and asked was 'it possible fur any friend .to. bring .about a reconciliation? Hillas said not. and that he would not make any apology while his heart but its.his bosom ; he heard that before the duel be said he would insult either Thomas Fenton or °swig his family ; .there was such a rep..rt in the 'country. bet he did not hear him say so.. • . Loaf tus James, If.s.—lie was present when i MS ' Was.daiieereet tw Hellas by-Jelin Fenton iu the name of Thomas. The message Was to fight a duel he was present at the duel ; he was not on tl)e,ground exactly when the Fenton: arrived ; . he, was walking.. with Hillas ; not sure who was Ora there, but hrie. companied . he was o r 16 yards • frotu : the Fentons ; he saw the ground meastwed, and stepped out the nine paces himself, at Capt. Ferran's request, o;lio . wis lame ; he saw them both take their ground; Fenton was on his ground about& inlniite before H=l. took his ; he had his eye on Fenton ; saw him squaring himself to fight John Fenton was with his friend, and put his pistol in his had aad shOved hip round ; Fentoa got his pistol before Hales, because Captain Ferrall was a lame m'n, infirm, and between 70_ an a 80 years of age ;Hillas declared he had no anirnosi:y; Fenton might have heard him, as ovas within seven or eight yards of him ; John Fenton was behind him first, and ts.en he shitted before him cite heard ro word given, but supposes Ferralllgave it, as he won the toss, “ as we call it." . Jobn Fenton remained in hunt of Thomas about a minute; Wit. ness was much agitated, he does not think there was half a second between die shots ; could not say Iv rev soon Thomas fired after John went from before him. On being cross-examined, he said he was an sd. vising friend to Hillas, so was Mr. Taaffe; Captain Ferrall Was his acting friend; they were•all practi. tioners. When Fenton squared himself, he magic Hillas square himself also; after the message d Fiala; was in witness's house ; be made arran{etttents hit the duel there ; he prepared his pistols there; tried them; there was a vast number of shots tired ; las fired two shots oui of witness's pistols at a tree, as a mark; he was dressed in black on the ground, and had black sleeves put on his waistcoat after the mtg. sage was delivered, no doubt wish a view to the duel. John Armstrong was on the ground, and described the transaction in a manner •imilar to the preceding witnesses. He believed it to be the duty of a frie nd to square his friend on the grniittd, in as to plate him as advantageously as possible—JoAn Fenton dll _ . nothing more to his ftiena. Robert Ormsby Was present at the wreck; there was an altercation between John Fenton and the de. ceased ; John Fenton threatened to throw the deceased down the rock ; Hillas was a great means of saving .the crew: he heard Fenton say, f• damn you . ;" there were warm words on the subject of the wreck-- he heard that the mate, on on - the care of the ves sel devolved, gave it hp Lto Mr. Fenton's charge, and he saw the writing by which it was conveyed to him ; be heard Mr. Fenton had remained all night upon a rock on the share, eadeavouring to give all the assistance in His pwer. He saw Mejor Hides at Mr. Jones's house on the day befere'the due:, and s :te them preparing the piatols, and practising at a boa:it, and tit Hillas fired but a few &bets only to try his pistols. Mr. N.Vynne was one of the Magistrates who sat on the leeestigation of the salveee claims ;.Co'oeel Tr sat %long welt him ; Mr. Haas rernaieei! all the time of the it:vestig•tiett ; lie used very warm expos. does of. Mr Thomas Fenton ; lie stated his own care,. and :targed that the .neite was unwarrantably takttl out of Its hands by Mr. Thomas Fenton; his wads were ves'y strong: he recollected hie concluding '.y 540 4 , that the mate was taken, he might saiy, stolen from him ;" the Magistrates iuterrupted !tiros his belie wase that he meant to apply the explesaion to Mr. ThOntas Fenton ; as a Magistrate he wisisesi to put a stop to the proceeding. • Mr. Wutwamosts..Cususse} .tat- the prisoners, wad, he would call but one witness. " • Doctor Carter was at the deel ; he proposed an apology to Mr. Ferrall to be made by Major Hillas; the apology he proposed . was for him to say, that " the expressions which he used relative to. Mr. Fen ton were spoken in heat, and not founded in Mt, and he was sorry for them." ,This was objected to. Doctor Carter then proposed to expunge the words i• not founded in fact," but Captain rerrall would not sutler any apology. Hillas was attended by three men, all very competent to advise him on such a subject ; but Captain Ferrell Waiti particularly so. The case here closed on the part of the pritortets ; and Judge Fleretien proceeded ea charge the Jury ; he said, that he had an arduous duty . to discharge, 'hitt that there was no exception in :tease of th:s kind; and he was bound to tell them, that where in a du. I death ensues, it is murder—mtirdet as well in the princ;pal as in the secend. Here one ot the seconds vre: the cethin, and the oiher (Mr. Ferran), thOith not indicted, was equally culpet.;e. No Matter Whe. ther the duel was fair or foul, usual or not ;" the le w recognised no shadtr. of dieinetinn ; and he was obliged to tell theist, that if t mo people went out with mortal weapons to tight, acid if a death easue, tt etas murder. It was his painful duty to tell them so;— but in such a case nothing could be innocent, where two men, wearing, as formerly, swords, had a sudden rencontre ; if death ensued, it was onl7 manslaughter ; but even theie, it a previous message had been delivered, it was murder. As to the dis cussion whether this was. a fair duel or not, it was for dem, having thus laid down the law to them, to consider. lie had told them, it they acted gaily, how they should find, but. he could not pie. tend to be ignorant of what his cepei fence had taugh: him ; and he mist say, in the nielaiieboly course el his professional expetieuce, he had never seen. less deviation or conrob4ratian in the wituesses, or less to induce thein to suppose tli , tt a faitee- duel was ever fought. 011 the part of t nefortim ate deceased, there even appeared to Le scrue attetnia at display ; he made a speech irritate the ma;ictrates ; lie made a speech before the crowd—there • se.med even some stage trick in his proceedings; and he could not help re. marking it to them, though he must at the same time greatly regret that so very worthy and excellent a young man, as he appeared to be, had met with so untimely an eud. It was: peeved, also, thatthe de ceased not only wore a black dress, but had prepared black sleeves to his waistcoat; what effect black had in such a case he did not knew, but it at Lela sheaved a purpose en the part of the deco iced. He bad, per haps, entangled himself on this subject more th.iu he ought, INat he had previously done his duty; by in forming the what the law was; and be had in ad dition to tell to m, that they could find nti intertie: diate verdict bet ; ect'an acquittal or murdet. The Jury retire,' and in a few minutes returned a verdict of—Not Gu ley a' to both the prisoners. Judge FeeTeux rhea addiessed the youegsentle men id •a very ittipresive edinitnitory address at to the awftil sitenstipt:in which tile) , were placed, and l .ordemi.theas to be intnicLately discharged. 1 • • • f !
