DANIEL SETOM, JUN. ISO The Defendant is the fon of the Governor of Surat. He had been found guilty on a criminal information preferred at the inflance of William Wickham, Efq. whom, in the words of the proceedings, he had at tempted to provoke, and to excite to fight a duel. In one of the counts, the expreffions charged were— " If you do not give me the fatisfatlion of a gentle men, you ale the greateit blackguard that ever liv -011" The caufe of the refentment of the gentleman, was Tome advice to Mr: and Mrs. Flint, a young married couple, who 'elided with Mr. Wickham, during his official fituation in Ireland, and to whom he fultained the charaiter of guardian. Mrs. Flint is filler to the Defendant, Lord EsLessolotic itfread the minutes of the trial, in which reversal threatehing letters to Mr. Wickham were given in evidence, and the converfation of Ma jor Morgan (the bearer of the challenge) was detailed. Mr. Giles, for the Defendant, Paid, he fhould be highly reprehenfible if he attempted to vindicate the conduit of his client; and was proceeding td Rate the circumftances in mitigation, when Mr. Seton, from the ground floor, cleared to read, in open Court, his own affidavit on this fubjeft. It contained an ac knowledgment of his rnifconduit, expreffions of deep contrition, and a confeffion, that the part Mr. Wick ham had ailed, was not only honourable to his own chevalier, but originated in the moft friendly mo. titres towards the Defendant. It further Rated, that his leave of ahfence from the India Company expired in-Auguft, and that the opportunity of returning was of the greaten confequence to his future fuccefs in life. Lord ELLsesoaotica.—" It revs with you to fay (addreffing himfell to the Counfel for the profecu non) if you will pray Judgment upon the Defendant. On fuch a ferious offence, if judgment be prayed, the Court has but one courfe to purfue." Mr. Eagan's - for the Profecution, after a fhort panfe---" I waited to coffee a little informality in the affidavit, before I addreffed your Lordfhips, who have been now witneffes of the honour ind forbear. 'ance of Mr. Wickham. I am inftruited by that Gentleman to fay, that he has the greatelt refpea for the family of the Defendant ; and he wiffies, not withftanding what has palled, to -condio.... to the happinefs and profperity of this unfortunate perfoo. It appears by the affidavit; that abfence from India would be a material injury to the Defendant ; Mr. Wickham willies his return may not be obflruited ; I thall, therefore, not pray the jadgment of the Court at this time." Lord E LLLLL It will be in the power of the Profecutor to call the Defendant up for judg• ment on any future occafion. I hope the impreffion made on this young man's mind will be agreeable to the friendly wifhes of Mr. Wickham. The Defen dant may retire." CRIMPING. —Saturday information was given at the Manfion Hook, of a man who keeps a houfe in Leadenhall-areet, into which he had been in the bit of decoying loldiers from his Majefty's ler, ice, in order to fend them to the EaR Indies. Upon the houfe being fearched, parts of the regimental dreffies, like tilde worn by fohliers of the guards. were found there, fuppofed to have belonged to men who were miffing. The man was committed to the Poultry Compter, and no bail accepted until an examination takes place, at which it is expeded that the Secretary at war will be prefent. COMIONATION or BOOT.Maatßs.—An interefting examination took place on Saturday at the Public Office, in Marlborough-ftreet. Of one thoufand boot makers, who have been tome time in a comoination againft the boot clofers, twelve were brought up as ringleaders and delegates. Mr. GURNLV, for the profeeution, dwelt on the dangerous tendency of fuch illegal proceedings ; and called w itneffes againft two of the Defendants, Plummer and Harrifon, who were firft examined. Mr. Wimpory, of Coventry•Rreet, Rated, that on the t 7th of May, two of his workmen, Tyrer and Bowker, delivered to him a lift of clofers in the flop, whom they confidered as illegal men, and as filch ought to be difcharged. He rejcded the lift, and the whole of his men, to the amount of fif teen, ftruck from their work, which had never been fini(hed. He had conceived the two Defendants to be very aftive in the conibination. Plummer was a Clerk to the Committee. Other witneffes proved the fad, and that letters from each fhop meetings were interchanged to bind them to their undertaking.— The Magiitrates conceived that if men could remain ten or twelve weeks without employment, their pio fits mull be exorbitant at other times. The prelent inllince pretty clearly proved that the men were their mailers' maflet s, which, it given way tr., would be attended with the greatal injuries to matter and ..an, and while the Al lisle was as much worn as at prelent, the price would be fo great, that a wide field would open for a foreign market, and dethoy what they might otherwife enjoy. He con eeived the combination to come under the meaning of the Acts of the 39th and aoth of his preterit Ma• jelly, and fentcnced the Defendants to two months hard labour in the House rit Cotreetion. O'Brien and -- Hammond wire charged in Re mann:r for exciting a combinati •rt in tot shop of Mr. M.N it ti n, Der ke!er ((rare. O'Btizn to cited the like fen tense, and Hammond was o[le ed tor oue month• Footrant.—On Saturday fe'nnight, about ten o'clock, as Mr. Branton, of the Bath Theatre, and Mr. Elderthaw, were coming from Brißol to a re turn poll chaife, about a mile this fide of Keynfham, they were flopped by two footpads ; one feized the horfes' heads; whillt the other opened the chaife door, and pretesting a pillol at Mr. Klderflaw, (aid, " Your money, Sir ?" Mr. E. who had.fortunatelv a fowling piece with him, loaded with large (hot, and with which lie had been killing rooks, replied, " I am ready for you." The villain feting the gun, in (Lindy fired his pißol into the chalk, but it did no injury. The fire was at quickly returned by Me. Elderthaw, and as the pine was dole to the. font, pad, it is luppoled that he mull have received the contents in his body. Mr. Branton then jumped rut of the chaife, and taking the gun from the 'Abet. Gentleman, made towards the fellow who had beeh holding the horfes, but who was then following fait his fuppofed wounded companion ; and at the dil ranee of about fifteen yards he unexpeftedly turnect round and levelled his pittol at Mr. B. but happily'. without effect, the ball (biking the pannel of thh chaife which had been drawn acrofs the road. Thej were loon ouf of fight ; and we regret the Gentle, men had not the means of purfning them, otherwife they might have been an eafy conqueft. The fellow, who it is prefumed is wounded, is near fix feet high, very Rout, dark complexion, with a (oft toned voice ; his companion was of middle (Lowe s rather thin, both dreffed in dark brown riding frocks, coming very forward in front. We fome months ago called the attention of our numerous readers to a remedy dit'covered by a Cler gyman for the dreadful diforders proceeding from the Bits, which, at this feafon of the year, (hews itfelf in many alarming thapes.
