He remembered that, attachzpent oa the mornifig of the day on which the robbery was committed, municauon a thief, named Brooker, (since transported,) came to him and Antrim proposed-making, one of a gani'to go out that night and rob the Esher turnpike. They were to be joined by two others (at pre atten- sent in Netvgate,) and expected to make as goad thing alt. Lb. Innen, witness consented to go, and they met at night. Instead, how -1 in- ever, of putting their original plan into execution, they met the ,r_ prosecutor, with his waggon, at Thames Ditton, and agreed upon robbing hint. (The witness here described the robbery in exactly the same terms as Smith, but said, thatinstead of the pistol being discharged over his head, it had gone off at some distance from 'dm by accident.)—The pistol was broken, and the knife, comb, c. belonging to the prosecutor, were thrown on the road. 'V.

In consequenceeLady Frances went into the conwry for the purpose of avoiding him, and declared slut .she , I would not take any step without her (Mir. l'aylois) 6 knowledge ; but, subsequently, Cady Franc !, was invited to dinner witheher mother, after whiir was left alone with Lord. Stewart, for whertiethe young Lady acknowledged to have some imilieatieet, when he obtained a promise of marriage feo/11 htt.— Lady Antrim the next day instructed het Fah . itot to prepare the necessary documents 'for the `lRwriage,. and on the 11th of April, a Petition was p; eiented to his:Lordship by Lady Antrim, preying a rs fdrence. to the Master, to inquire into the settlen.erit Lady Frances having agreed to marry Lord Ste Bart. tOrd Stewart wrote to - Mrs. Taylor, acquainting h~r of-his intention to offer himself to Lady Frances, bat Mrs. Taylor gave her decided negatise' to the yrs:seceding. In reference to ;he letter sent by Lady Frances to the Lord Chancellor, and written 'by Mr. Whitt tri, the Attorney, Sir Samuel submitted it must be taken is the nature of a public - document, and therefore he should read it. It stated in substance, that Lady Frances had been invited .by her • mother. to dine on the 13th of. March, when Lady Antrim vies to have the honour of the Princeltegent's company, but declined on account of Lord Stewart, who obt tined leave from his Royeddlighstess to beebeeet thattlay: Subsequently, having. met Lord Stewart by accident, at the same plaCe, she promised him marriage. She' , also acknowledged having an attachment for the; Noble Lord. After concluding the letter, Sir Sa muel Romilly briefly adverted to the affidavits filed in behalf of Lady Antrim, in which it was declared that she knew nothing of the attachment of Lord Stewart to her daughter until the 16th of March, when, on discovering that to be the case, she did say to her daughter, - that she considered Lord Stewart to be a match for any young Lady, howevie high in rank and fortune she might be. She did not deny the communication made by Mrs. Taylor, but said that from the highly honourable character of Lord Stewart, and being wholly ignorant .of any existing attachment ' between the parties, she treated the communication l, with discredit. About a week after, Lady Antrim , acknowledged that she discovered a marked atten tion on the part of Lord Stewart. Mr. *Donnell, in consequence, waited on Lord Stewart, and in formed him that it would not be pr o per for the par -1 ties to meet at dinner, and Lord Stewart conse quently obtained leave of absence from the Prince Regent, as stated in Lady Frances's letter. Lord Stewart also denied having instructed the Lady of high rank, to communicate the fact of his'intend ing to tender his hand to Lady Frances. After ar• guing at considerable length in support of his mo tion, Sir Samuel observed, that from the first inter view, on the 26th February, till the 9th April, on which day the consent was obtained, appeared to have bcea the whole period of the party knowing each other ; at any rate there was no occasion for the pre cipitancy evinced, and he trusted his Lordship would refer it to the Master to see if this was a proper match. • Mr. AZARCROMBY argued at great length and with much ability on the same side. Mr. HART deprecated the course pursued by the former speakers, in exposing to the hearers the do mestic concerns of a family. Lady Antrim • sponte- ' neously consented not to have any communication with her daughter. It was impossible that she could wish clandestinely to marry her daughter, as com mon discretion would hinder her from interfering in a matter of such vital importance to the happiness of her child. He could not conceive the reason for reading the affidavits, unless it was for the purpose of eluding, rather than that' of stating a fact long since past, with . which Lord Stewart had no con nexion, and consequently could not apply to him.— Why had Mrs. Taylor consented to the order made in 181&? Would the colour given to the present affidavits warrant the conduct of 1816 ? The syno nymous communications were said to have created great apprehensions. Why then not apply before the present time ? What could be said of Lady Antrire's.disregarding those communications in toto? Why, from the honourable and brilliant character of Lord Stewart, she did not believe them. The imi tation to dine with her mother was a high honour on Lady Frances. Lord Stewart distinctly denied giving any authority respecting the offer of his hand ; in fact, he had absented himself, rather than prevent Lady Frances bein t t e p s rsent. Could it then be real;y necessary to read affidavits iu upeu Court ? In :1.55. in Silver, &c. Edward Smith said, he was a waggoner, taaaLlived atellfeseen. green.

The prisoner he could Oscine** as having put his hand into the left pocket of his jacket, drawn out his prop-rty, and then carefully felt all his pockets. An attempt was Made to get his watch, but he contrived to secret it too well. The party were about to leave him, but one of them said—" D--n his blood, let us feel him meant" which they did. Witness entreated them to give him some, if not all his eon perty back ; urging that he had worked ha rd to earn it. •He begged, at least, that they would give him back his pocket -book, containing some nvful memorazdumo They answered, that this they would drop for him on the road aaand as they were about to leave !anus pistol was discharged over his head. lie was positive that the prisoner was one of the party who robbed him. Robert Crawford said he was an accomplice; and came fur sea w give evidence for his oven safety. He remembered that, OH the morning of the day on which the robbery was committed, a thief, named Brooker, (since transported,) came to him and proposed making. one of a gang to go out that night and rob the Laker turnpike. They were to be joined by two others (at pre• sent in Netvgate,) and expected to make a good thing of it. The witness consented to go, and they met at night. Instead, how ever, of putting their original plan into execution, they met the prosecutor, with his waggon, as. Thames Ditton, and agreed upon robbing hint. (The witness here described the robbery in exactly the same terms as Smith, but said, thatinstead of the pistol being discharged over his head, it had gone off at some distance from him by accident.)—Tbe pistol was broken, and the knife, comb, &c. belonging to the prosecutor, were thrown on the road. W. Waffron deposed, that on the night of the alleged robbery, he heard the noise of several men at the gate of Lady Sullivan, and on the neat day there were found, on the road side, the stock and barrel of a pistol, a knife, comb, &c. A man, named Potter, assisted in apprehending the prisoner. He denied that he had concerted with Smith, or talked to him of the reward that would result from his conviction. Mr. Thomas Hicks was then called by the COSIMON:SranAre in behalf of the prisoner, and his evidence petrified the Court. He stated, that he was the proprietor of the King's Head Tavern, James-street, Covent-garden, and had left town to transact busi ness at Ditton and Esher. On his way he stopped at the Griffin Tavern, Kingston, and there learned that a Gentleman, whom he sought, was in the Crown Assize Court, then sitting. The witness went there, but from the immense crowd assembled he was unable to gain admittance. He, however, stopped some time in the passage, where, among others, he 'observed the pro neuter Smith, and the witness Potter. They were irt close conversation, and he distinctly heard the latter say to. Smith— '' If you don't swear point blank to Emmett, we shall lose every farthihg of the money, To this Smith replied'-" Swear to hio !—yes, tti.it I will, and nothing else !" The witness, alarmed at such abominable proceedings, called Mr. Itibbert, a gentleman of Kingston, to who,n he made known the fact. M Hilbert confirmed the testimony of Mr. Hicks, who, upon miring the infamous convocation he had related, said to hl3l— " Good God ! is it p004:114t that the lives of men can thee be swank away ?" A g: eat number of respectable individuals, who bad known the priso.ter for many eears, gave hint an excellent character. When taken i no custody, he was found pursuing his employment. Mr. Baum WI.OD summed up the evidence, in part Only, to the Jtry. lie thought the story of the accomplice w as more pregnant with suspicion than ccmfirmation. But were it even otherwise, the testimony of a disinterested and respectable wit ness, Mr. Hicks, was calculated to shake the whole. The Jury were to ,ay, wheth.a. the story of an avowed thief was to be received in preference to the evidence of the gentleman just named, and if they could give credit to the latter; he could no t but add, that a more abominable conspiracy, or axon deliberate act of leeway in seeking money at the expense of the life of a fellow-creature, was never knowr.. The Jury could not suffer his Lordship to proceed, and loudly declared themselves satisfied with the innocence of the prisoner. The latter was instantly discharged out of custody, and, hasten ing from the dock to the doors, rasa up to Mr. Hicks in his way I from the Court, fell upon his knees, and blessed him for the pre.. serration of his life. Ile assured Mr. nicks 4110, that his zeal and humanity were not unworthily exorcised, as he knew mg more of the alleged ruhloery than htmeelf. , COURT OF CHANCERY, APRIL 21. 1112• WAND OF CHANCERY. TAYLOR 17. LADY ANTRIM. In cinsequence of it being generally known that this important cause would be argued before the LORD CHANCELLOR this day, the Court at an early hour became crowded to excess, so much so that it was with difficulty the Gentlemen :f the Bar could obvain egress and regress. Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY rose to move that Lady An trim, the defendant, and mother of the young Lady in question, migh.. be restrained from-communica ting, or having any intercourse with her, and that Mr. M'Donnell might also be restrained from cor responding with Lady Frances, the Ward, or clmvey ing any letters or communications, or otherwise aid ing. or promoting the marriage, or procuring an in terview between the said Ward and Lord Stewart.— It was difficult, he said, to separate the motion from the Petition of Lord Stewart. He had a most paia ful duty to discharge, and he would be extremely sorry to say any thing in the least hurtful to the feelings of the noble parties to the cause. It had be come the duty of .the deponent, Mrs. Taylor, the aunt, and one of the guardians of the young Lady, appointed by the will of Sir Henry Vane Tempest, to protect her niece, on grounds, to use the mildest terms, of the defendant having attempted to procure the marriage of her daughter to Lord Stewart, bro. ther to Lord Castlereagh, without consulting one of the guardians of the Ward of Court. He should best discharge his duty by stating some of the facts as al. leged by the deponent, in her affidavit, in which she described herself to have personal objections to Lord Stewart becoming the husband of her niece. If the matter rested there, he would not say it would be improper to refer the matter to the Master, but there was one great objection in cases similar to the pre sent, namely, want of fortune. The Solicitor Gene ral had stated the other day, that Lord Stewart's for tune was such as to preclude any objection on that score ; but it should be recollected that his Loraship was only possessed of the life interest, and certain other property in expectancy, part of which he would derive in the event of surviving Lords Londonderry and Castlereagh. The Noble Lord, though posses sed of considerable property, it should be kept in view, could not make a marriage settlement it.— With respect to the personal objections, he would not say one word, as that would be seen by his Lordship in the affidavits that had been filed. Amongst other allegations in the affidavit of. Mrs. Taylor, v..a one, in which. she alleged that the had been informed,
