The kveral indietments preferred againft Mr. Thompfon, the Attorney, were removed by Weirs of Certiorari to the Court of King's Bench, by the profeeutors. Mary Ruffel was tried for keeping a brothel in the parilh of St. Leonard. Shoreditch; but the parith afacers, or dude cooeerned for the profecution, having failed to prove her to be the proprietor of the houfe, the was, by the dlredtion of the Learned Chairman, acquitted. ASSAVILT.m..A taylor of the name of Wedderburn.was:charrl with having affaulted a Lady, the wife of a very refpeetabletra - man, by laying bet nerds his knee, and beating her with as much cruelty as indecency, The above charge was (imported by the Lady herfelf, who gave her tettimony with a very asußderable Rare of reludance. She Rated the whole of the particulars, and added, that the was fo much injured and knifed with the weight and violence wherewith the defendant applied his hands, that the was lame for a fortnight. Her evidence was corroborated by two other women. who reeved her from his attack. The Defendant when called upon to account for his eondadt, entered into a fpcech of very cooGderabk length, and betrayed great irritability He attempted to juftify the deed, from what he termed the provocation given by the profecutriz,andraged with furl loud and laftieg vehemence, that the Officers of the Coon were at lift obliged to Rop him. He nu found guilty, and fen. teemed to ea days imprifonment in the Houle of Corredtion. MATRIMONIAL FRACAS.

He immediately followed and claimed her, when he was knocked down by them. In detailing the particulars of the affault, Mr Curtsey obierved, that t►is was only one of a (cries of injuries which the Prosecutor had received ou account of his wife. _ _ _ Mr. ALLIT. fertile Defendants, reprefented the condo& of the Profecutor to be highly reprehenfible fo far u it refpe6ed his wife. whom he had turned out of doors without fupport, and now with• ed to blacken her charadter, by imputing to her an improper se qualatance with the Dcfaad,lnt Archer. He had federal witneffes to call, who would difprove the teftimony of Clarke. The Cdort informed the jury that the Defendantsmuft be found guilty. u the affault was proved, and they had no right to obttrudt the Prefects:or in claiming his wife. The Jury accordingly found them Guilty. RICHARD ANDREWS. Yeamday the abovementioned perfon, of whom the public have already heard a good deal, in the report of his different examinations at Queen-fquare Police Office, and at the different times at which it was fuppofed his trial would come on at this Court, and alto at his ti ial at the Old Bailey, was put to the bar and arraigned for a mifdemeanor, in having ob tained zoool. of money from Colonel William Sr muel Davifon, by falfe pretences, he the faid Ri chard Andrews repreknting himfelf to be a perfon who had fuch connexions with the Earl of Befbo rough and other perfons of diftineion, that he could obtain feats in Parliament for the (aid Colonel Da vifon and other perfons his friends. Colonel William Samuel Davilon Rated, that he was a Colonel in the EaR India fervice, and that be became acquainted with the defendant in the prifon of the King's Bench in the month of Sept. tBo6, in *confequence of an application from him in behalf of anotherprifuner named WCallum s to whom he fent it bounty of col. The defendant reptefented himfelf to be. a man of fortune, having received 28,0001. with his &ft wife—that he was very intimately ac• quainted with my Lord Befborough and Lord Ro. bert Spencer—that he bad feveral fetters from noble perfons with whom he was in habits of friendfltip— he fhewed the witnefs one from Lord Fitzwilliam, Mai told him that he (the defendant) had Rood for the borough of Ipfwich, but failed, and that in confe• quence of his failure Lord Fitzwilliam had made him a prefent of Soot. and told him that if he knew he had witted to get into Parliament, he could have procured him a feat without any expence of trouble. 'The defendant generally Rated that he was prattled of great parliamentary interea, but that be had ruined himfelf by being attached to Mr. Fox's party; that he has, kept open houfes for many of his friends, and on one oceafion had three !routes open. The witnefs expreffed his with to get into Parliament, and the defendant expreffed his confidence in the friend. flip of my Lord Befborouph. The witnefs here Rated, that he left the Bench at the end of him, ber, and Andrews thortly after called on hll, and they went together to Rochampton, the witnefs be ing engaged to dine with Mr. Goldfmid ; and the Defendant pretending bufinefs with my Lord &tho rough t the latter, upon telling for him at nine o'clock to return to town, faid that his Lordfhip was not at home, but that her Ladyfhip had fent down a very kind maize. The defendant then had feveral other meetings with the witnefs, when on each occa fion he informed the latter that my Lord Befborough had pledged himfelf to return the witnefs to Patlia ment, but that his Lordfhip was n/t rich, and tato oey'would be very acceptable—he (aid he would'alto return two or three , friends, and begged he would name any—the witnefs named Mr. Maltby, to whom he faid be would mention it. The defendant then Paid, 4 4 my Lord conceives that I ad as your Secre. tary, therefore I thould be happy to be fo." The witnefs, however, nbferved that it was ridiculous for bins to employ a Secretary, for he had no ufe for one. He then faid he was to be my Lord's Seer:- tary, and to have a room in his houfe. " Well then. (Grid the Defendant), let me be as ufeful as I can." To this propofition the witnefs acceded, and entrua ed him with bills, and autliorifed him to open an account with Meths. Snow and Co. banker!, near Temple Bar, the defendant having recommended thefe Gentlemen, laying that they knew him on ac• count of his intimacy with my Lord Fitzwilliam, and would accommodate the whack on that account. About the end of Ottober, he told the witnefs that my Lord Befborough had given him a hint about a little pecuniary accommodation. In confequence of this intimation, and believing the truth cf his Rate. meat, the witnefs gave him a check for wool. on Mats. Snow and Co. The Defendant atter wards told tm the 6e ford received two, yool. • notes for the rtcheck,mliich he bad paid over to my Lord. On the 'l3oth Ottober, be accompanied the defendant, with Mr. Cracklow and Mr. Roberts ' on a (peculation to ! ,the borough of Oakhampton ; but when they ar rived there the eleiftion was over, and the defendant iobtaineitfronohim 6471. to pay the expences of the! trip. About the Bth or toth November, the defen idant required another furn of toool. for his Lord Zip, .when the *itnefs expreffed his furprife, obferving, that he malt have sor 6001. in his poll - et:Son, which !he acknowledged, and the witnefs borrowed 4001. of Ur. Maltby, to make up the moo!. On all thee I occafions tie ofeeted great fectecy. He alto requef ted the witnefs's acceptance of a gold cif), as a mark of refpett, and informed him that he intended to prefent three others—one to my Lord Be(bnrough, one to my Lord Fitzwilliam, and one to Lord Ro bert Spencer. The cup which he prefented to Lord *thorough the witnefs law, it was very handforne, and valued at two hundred guineas. The witnefs at length became exceedingly alarmed about the feat ,in Parliament, and furpeCled all was not right, as the returns had been made, and his name not among them. He applied toThe defendant, who told him ! be was aEtually returned for a place in Ireland, and ' the returns would be made at the Crown Office very loon. 44 My dear friend, ffaid he), it is impoffible you , can furpeit me for a moment, when you know how I much I am indebted to you." A letter was then put in and read from the Defen dant, in anfwer to one of reproach from the witnefs. In this letter h t e afferts hi's upright coedit - et, and ac- I cafes the witnefs of infulting him. Colonel Davifon then returned hit evidence, and fated, that he threatened to appeal to my Lord Bef borough on the bufinefs—when the Defendant pre tended, that his Lordlbip was in great diftrefs of mind, in confequence of a M. Lamb having reported that his Lordfhip had accepted of a confideration for the Borough; and prevailed upon the witnefs to fign a paper of his own diittation, profeffing his read diners to take an oath that no confideration had been paid to his Lordthip. The witnefs, however,faw his Lordfhip, and afterwards taxed the Defendant with his duplicity, when he fell on his knees and viand G—n might Rrike him dead! if he had not lifted honourably." On his crofs examination by Mr. dURIEY, the witnefs Rated, that he had been 25 years in the EMI India fervice ; had been difmitted in confequence of Tome improper conduit on board the Glory, on het paffage ; but that, in order to mitigate the feverity of the fentence, the Court of Dirators allowed him a petition of 1501. per annum.—admitted he was in the King's Bench prifon in tBo6, from May to Sep tember, and came out without paying his creditors; confeffed, that under loch circumftances, and being largely in debt, a feat in Parliament would be ex tremely convenient for him to prevent him from fu ture wrens ; allowed that he was very intimate with Roberts, but that the intimacy had ceafed for tome time. He never reprefented himfelf as a man of fortune, but introduced his friend, the defendant, to Maltby, as a man of great interell and (efficient in. fluence to obtain a number of feats in Parliament, but at the fame time concealed that defendant had been difcharged by the Infolvent Acknow ledged- he was dißrefferl for money on two Occep. tenets for god. each, by Parker, of FleetAtreet ; that feveral of his bills were unpaid, and that he bad *tilled a perfon of the name of Farquharfon with bills to the amount of two thoufand fix hundred pounds, whkh he had obtained by f---ing. At Okehampton he was to do wonders—to build as bridge, and to purchafe the whole town. He alto admitted, that he borrowed Spencer Smith's canine for the defendant to ride round and raife money, and to pay Smith's bills. During his conneftion with the defendant, he had a high opinion of him as a good hearted mangy indeed, as big as he is, he thought him all healt h The reR of the witnefs's examination went to thew, that when he had been confined for debt, he did not raife money by bills, but received allitlance from friends. The defendant here put feveral queßions to the witnefs, which the Court thought irrelevant to the charge, and confequently he defined. Mr. Rowland Maltby, Solicitor and Clerk to the Fithmongers' Company, proved the payment of vol. in part of the wool. lan advanced ; and (poke to the falfe reprefentations which he bad made with wiped to the feat in Parliament. He Rated to this witnefe that he was a defcendant of Bifhop Andrews, and Mould lbortly be in poffeflion of 200,0001. in right of his relationfhip to that Reverend Prelate.— When crofs.examined be admitted that Davifon in troduced Andrews as a man who had formerly a fortune, but was imprudent ; yet never told him of his being releafed by the recent Infolvent AEI ; Paid that Davifon was acquainted with Lord Rockby, and promifed Maltby, the witnefs, the Stewardflups of that Nobleman's elates : that the zoool. were paid by Davifon to Andrews in conlideration of a feat in Parliament, and if the Paid Davifon was not returned the money was to be refunded, having been given fur that plurpofe. • Mr. Martin French, wine merchant, of George &etc, Portman fquare, silo fupported the teßimony of the profecutor as to the falfe teprefentations t and further Rated, that the defendant knelt down and took a molt folemn oath to the truth of his having procured a feat in Parliament for the profeeutor. Mr. Gubbins, clerk toMeffrs. Snow and Co. proved the payment of the two Soot. bills on the Colonel's draft. The Earl of Beflyirongh denied in the molt une quivocal terms his ever laving bad any connetion for the Pale of boroughs, or ntherwife with the defen dant, except that he bad received feveral letters from him foliciting pecuniary affiflance, and once his Lordfhip fent him the fum of Icel. As to the gold cup, he was afinnidted to.find that it had been left for him under Inch circumftances as thole under which it bad been Rated to have been left : and rather than fee the goldfrnith loft the value of it, he paid him his price, which was fumething about 200 guineas. Mr. Guess' and Mr. ALM made each a long, able, and Ingenious fpeech in favour of the &fen. dant. The principal point upon which their argil • tent rafted, which only we have room to Rate, was this, that the indiEtment charged the defendant with having obtained mosey under falfe pretences ; that the ae under which he was tried pnGtively expreffed money, goods, wares, or merchandise, as the objets of the legifiat are in that enadMent-rthat that law was antecettent to, and could not have In itk contempla tion even that law which fubfequently proteded the bank, but not individuals, (except in cafes of ars tit) and made bank notes a legal tender as far as refpeds ' the bank. It was true that the defendant might be fetid to have afterwards obtained m..ney for thefe notes ; but in the cafe of a man obtaining poffeffion of a honfe under tome falfe pretence, and obtaining money for it afterwards, it could not be at law con tended that thereby money had been obtained under ladle pretences. The indiament and the fads did not fit together, and therefore they requefled the Court, if a verdict of guilty thnuld be pronounced, that the verdift Mould be made fpecial. Mr. GLIAD, Mr. BOLLARD. and Mr. ADnLpgue, on the other fide, molt teetotal,' contelled that point. Mr. Adolphus declared his opinion molt broadly, and without exception, that in the prefent late of the commercial affairs of the country, and after the palling of the 37th of the King,•for the pro tedion of the Bank, and the lupport of public credit, bank notes and money were one and the fame thing. By the ufage of Tome nations, (hells were the general circulating medium, and as fuels, they were properly the money of thofe countries. In another place we might find that leather was ufed as the circulating medium, and confequently leather was the money of that country. Here our Legiaatnre had thought proper to adopt paper as the circulating medium, in addition to metallic coin ; and here, confequently they were both the money of the country. The CHAIRMAN funsmed up the evidence in the mon perfpicuous mann er . .* He (swelled the leaning of leis awn mind in favour of the arguMents which had been urged on the part of the profecation. He, however, relayed the point of law for the k onfidera don of a fuperior Court, if neceffary, and left the jury to decide upon the fad of the cafe. After about. ten minutes deliberttions the jury pronounced the defendant guilty. .The point is to be argued before the Judges. In the mean time, if the Court Ihall think fit to try the defendant upon any of the other charges that are alleged again ft him, etc notice will be given to the parties interefted. Andrews, from the comMenceinent to the coneln lion of the trial, appeared to be as much at his cafe as if he were the plaintiff, inks(' of the defen dant. COURTS MARTIAL....-Monday a Court Martial was held on board the Magnanime, at Sheernefs, on Thomas Tindall, Ship's Corporal of the Namur, for detaining and opening letters, when the charges being in part proved, he was fentenced w receive so taffies, and be iMprifoned twelve months in the Mar. Salim The Court then proceeded on the trial of a feamaa of his Majely's Didaton for fighting, which occafioned the death of his opponent. The Court of Inquiry, tonfifting of General Offi cers, is now fitting on the military cond,i of ack. Officer of rank, who ferved in the EaII Indies under Lord Vifcount Lava. The inquiry, we underhand, has been inhiruted at the inßance of the Officer himfelf. An idea of the feverity of the weather may be formed from the following circumfinece, which oc curred on Monday fe'nnight:—As 4ur drovers, on their return from the (ouch, were paling over S hap. fell, three of them were fo overpowered by the cold, that they were unable to proceed farther. In this emergency, the fourth took upon his &wilder! one of his companions, who appeared more eshaufied than the others, and conve,yed him to the nearefl public houfe, at the diftstice of a mile and a half, though the poor man performed the journey without his ices, having loft them in the (now. Having relieved himfelf of his burthen, he inftantly fet out again in fearch of thofe he had left behind, whom he found fomewhat recovered, they having, during his ab fence, killed a fheep, which they found on the fell, and prevented the vital (park from being estinguilh ed, by wrapping its warm intellines around their benumbed feet and hands. On reaching the public hook, they obferved their friend a Welds corpfe. Costossa's Ismyssts.—An inqued was held on Monday, at the Swan, in Mount Itreet, on the body of Malley Edward Powell, who was drowned on Sunday morning, in the Serpentine River, bytbe ice giving way. The deceafed was a youth of 16 years of age, foil. of Mr. Thomas Powell, one of the box door keepers of Drury Lane theatre. Verdid—Ac eidental Death. An %minion was taken yeaerday at Newington,on the body of P. Fowler, a joiner, who reGded in Gray's Inn Lane, who was drowned in a pond near New. ington, and whole wife was a fpeEtator of the fad accident. The deceafed had been to fee his brother, and it was by mere accident that he was induced tb go on the iee, where Come boys were aiding. Verdieft —Accidental Death. A lad of the name of Bremen was alto drowned in a pond at Somer's Town, as was alto a youth at Paddington, on whole body an Inguifition was taken on Monday. On Tuefday evening ha, Mr. M. Simcocks, a very decent old man, fell into the intended Canal near Sa!Mary, at a place called the Town Ponds, on bit return home from a friend's houfe, and was either 'tanned by the fall, or fuffocated. His body was found in the mud on Wednefday morning. The deceafed wa 8a years of age► The Coroner' s verdia was—Drowned, occafioned by the pond being de fencelefs. On the night of Friday, the :nth ;What, a molt malicious and wicked trituration took place at Brans thaw. a village near Lyndhurft : —Mr. Coombs, a farmer, refident there, was fuddenly awakensfd loon after twelve o'clock, by a noire in his chamber; on examination, it was found that fevers' large !hots had paired through the window into the room in which he was Beeping with If. wife fame of which Bruck the furniture of the bed. Shortly after, on his fon and his carter going into the liable, they di/co vered two bodes fu feverely maimed and nabbed, that both died the fame day.
