effect of convicting the plaintiff of the offence imputed to him, and they would not return such a verdict but on evidence sufficient to warrant such a conviction. • The defendant being printer and proprietor of the Times, was admitted. M.. Turner, from Somerset House, produced The Times of The 15th of April. The alleged libel was then read. It stated that Mr. Scott, one of the overseers of the parish in which Mrs. Walker, the wife of the pd. inner, mho had been acquitted of bigamy, resided, accompanied her to Hatton Garden police office, to Mice a claim on behalf of the parish against her bus f sr an allowance for her 'maintenance, and that in tl‘e course of making this claim he stated tot' e Ma gistt ate that Walker had been tried at the Old Barley, and hai been acquitted in consequence of Taylor, the constalie, having kept back the witnesses against him. This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. Sergeant WILD! addressed the Jury for the defendant. He said it was his duty to deny that the dtfendaet had published any gross and scandalous libel, aid *he felt himself warranted in makifig that denial by the circumstances of the case. It was important to a paper of such high character as the Times that it should be understood that the police report, of which the pl rine tiff complained, was not made in any spit it of malignity or hostility, but was justified by the truth of the fact; and this conclusion he hod no doubt the Jury would come to when they should have heard the evidence that he would lay be'ote them. It was one of the great advantages of the free press of this country, that by the publication of the proceedings of our Cow is the public became acquainted with the opinionsvand the conduct • f ihe Judges, and of the inferior officers of Justice, 'which operated as a safeguard against the abuse of power. In the present case he could not doubt that the Jury would be convinced by the evidence that the plain tiff had obstructed the course of Justice, by keeping back the witnesses for the prosecution on the trial of Walker ; and if they believed that fact, they would give their verdict for the defendant. hl r. Charles Spencer Owen produced the copy of the 'indictment and acquittal of Wm. Walker, on a charge •r f bigamy, and two cettificates of marriage between Wm. Walker and Ann Glover, and Wm. Walker and Ann Williams—the first dated 26th of June, 1826, the second 27th September, 1827. Mrs.AnnWalker—My maiden name wasAnnGlover; I married Wm. Walker on the 26th June, 1826, at St. Andrew's, Ilolborn; we lived fifteen months together; we resided, five months in Nottinghamshire with his friends ; he left me on the 15th of September, 1827; I . was at the Sessions House, and about two months after. wards I attended at the Old Bailey ; the plaintiff was 'slot before the Grand Jury ; 1 fi st knew the plaintiff through the recommendation of the watchman, who •said the plaintiff would take him; the plaintiff recom mended me to eMploy a Mr. M:snse; he came to Mr. Cruikshank's, at whose house I lived, and recom mended me t emplay that man ; I afterwards attended *at the .

Susatinah Sowden and Mary Bath corroborated this evil nce. NI.. Fat, sbort.hand writer at the New Cour t, Old bailey. stated, that he believed from his notes that the trial r f Walker was called on about ten o'clock ; he was acquitted immediately, for want ef evidence. Mr.-J. J. Macdonald—l was at the Hatton Garden Palice Office when Mrs. Walker applied there for relief; I furnished a report to the Tuna Newspaper; this is my refor• ; I had personally known 'Cal for ; this is a correct Staten ent of what took place; nothing more tdok place that I can how recollect; 1 furnished this tepoi t od the night of the day on which the cis cumstasice occuired. Mr. Mallet, clerk at Hatton Garden Police Office, had read the r. p Ft in the limes, and considered it suh stantially correct, though it might be something fullea • than What took place before the Magiitrate. M's. Jithn Scotr stated, that he act ompanieJ the wit ! nen, Walker, to Itatton-gar,:en !Joliet-Aire: The sub : stance of the report in ttie l imes aas something like who. toi lc )dace there. He did not say that Taylor hid kept back she witnesses on the trial of Walker ; but Mrs . • Walker might, as she was very helms t•-• telt the Ma• gistrate all aboot the matter. This was the delendanes case. Mr. Sergeant A.Dnews addressed the 4nry on the evidence, which, he c' mended, did m 4. inieuut to a justification of the publication. The CHIEF Ju.TICI, in chat g;ng the Jury, solid. the de fendant had pleaded a ju of cation on the ground that the report contained a true account of what took place at the Police Office; and also on the ground that the facts stated in the repo, t were true. If they were satisfied that the report was substan•ially true, as to the facts which made out the list plea, that would be sufficient to entitle the defendant to their verdict.-- The Learned Judge then commented on the evidence given of the prisoner Walker having been acquitted when his trial was first called on, which must have been known to Tayli r, who at that rime pt evei t-d the witnesses going into Court, and kept them two hours after in waiting, on pretence that the trial had not yet come on. If this were not the ca se, why did not Taylor call his friend Manse to prove the con trary ? He (the Lord Chief Justice) c. uld have wished to see that pe►son. Thi ugh Watktr had escaped, and could not again he tried for bigamy, yet there was a' way in which he and others might be brought to punish- 1 ment. If the Jury were satisfied that the plea el justifi cation on the truth of the facts was made out, it was un necessary for him to charge them on the plea respecting the correctness of the police report. The Jury here consulted for a moment, and said they were satisfied of the truth of the facts, and fount a verdict for the dtfendant. The Oily, JUSTICE said that was soffic'ent, and he sl ould not require them to find a verdict on any of the other issues. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Novnissa 20. TELL KING U. MAUNDE, AUSI'ILN, AND TILVIN. An application wits made some •ew days since that an extent in aid might issue against the defendants, bearing the same teste as one which issued again t them so far back as 1816. The Court then taking into consideration the great lapse of time which had been suffered to take place, and the injury which might arise to innocent pat ties from a renewal of the writ, refused to grant the ap• plication, unless some very strong reasons were ad vanced by affidavit in support of it. A Gentleman appeared to-day on behrlf of the re presentatives of the defendant, Mauna.; and requested that the solicitor, by *horn the former application was made, might be directed to give notice of the day on which he intended to renew it, in order that the re presentatives of Mr. Maunde might be in readiness to noose it. Mr. Baron HULLOCK •-•I am afraid that we cannot compel the solicitor to give w.tice; but thus much I can say, that Ole Court will, in all probability. not be in a great hurry to issue the fresh extent, after such a long interval. The utmost that I. think the Court will be inclined to do, is to grant a Rule nisi in the first instance. As far as I understand.the manner in which the Court has issued a fresh extent, when the matter has lain dormant for such a length of time,,they guard the interests of innocent parties, and do not allow the fresh extent to disturb bona fide purchasers. Indeed, the ex. tent in such cases is twt generally directed against any other parties than the original defendants. Mr. Baron GA RROW felt himself called on to say, that Mr. Baron Hullock had paid great attention to these extent , , and that they were not now passed over sn much of course as they formerly bad been.—. The matter dropped here. • HIGII COURT OF ADMIRALTY, Nov. 20. THE SPRING. Dr. DODS.)N applied to the Court. for an order calling on Mr. Charles Drew to show cause why he should nut be adjudged to pay salvage. The Spring was an East vessel, and on her voyage home from Bombay, on the 16th December. 1827, fell in with a most violent gale off the Cape, which continued without intermission for three days; during that time the ship became much injured, and was obliged to make to the nearest port f t repairs; on examining her cargo, which was a valuable one,it was foundthat a great part wasentirely spoiled,and the other much datnaged,in consequence of the ship hay. ing let in the water. Uncle! these circumstances the Peti. tionerc, John and George Cornet', with the assistance of 64 labourers, excited themteves for a long time in pre serving what part of the cargo remained undamaged, and after the ship had undergone repair, she sailei for England. On her arrival here Messrs. Bazett, Farquhar, and Co. te whom she was consigned, abandoned the cargo, when application was made to the underwriters, who also refused it : tl:e consequence was that it was sold in the us ual manner by the East India Company ; ,and the only mode by which the Petitioners could obtain remuneration for their services was by this Con: t calling upon Mr. Drew, as the owner of the ship, to pay then. nut of the proceeds of the sale, as he would receive the amount of the sale from the Company. Dr. heattaft contended that Mr. Dm ew was not liable ; it was the. East India Company wh.,, after the cargo had been abandoned both by the parties to whom they were consigned and the under writers,had sold the goods, anti they aline received the proceeds, which they now held; therefore the order ought to be against them. Sir C. Hontriaos thought this was not the proper time to argue the question of which party was liable for salvage. They were not as yet be4ore the Court; he was of opinion the order ought to be granted, and when the y appeared thnt pm int could be decided. The Ps actor for the petitioners then prayed that the Court would assign &h. Drew to report the value of the goods which had been abandoned by the consignees and underwriters. which was accordingly ordered. THE MARGARET. 1)r. JESINIta said he had to present a petition from part of the proprietors of this ►hip, who held 16-64ths, under these circumstances—ln the year 1827 she was fitt d out in the port of Hull for a •oyage, as it was said, 'o Riga, but the petitioners tut being quite satisfied that ever y thing was fair, insisted upon having a bond for 50. 1. from the other proprietors, as scent ity for her sale return to the port of Hull, which was given. 1 was now ascertained that the ship had returned from that ♦oyage some time since, and was gone another, without the knowledge of the petitioners; they therefore prayed that the Court would order the parties who had given the bond to appear, and show cause what had become of her, and, where she was gone. The Court granted the order as prayed. A short time since 4 Cientlemsn'of Providence, was out in the suburbs endeavouring to gt t a shot at a large , eagle.

After some convenation among the panics, the defen- dant entered into his own recognizance is £lOO to keep the peace to all his Majesty's subjects for one year. BOW-STREET. Two respectable Lodire:a widow and her daughter, came to this Ales to obtain the Magistrates advice under the fel/owing disagreeable circumstances :—Mr Something, a batter, had some time ago taken the applicant's house as a yearly tenant. The hatter now refused to pay any rent to his landlady. nor could she get him to give up the house. Applicant held the house under a lease. Before be too/ possession, applicant had laid out a hundred pounds in improving her premises. Now the man bad deserted the home, and she learned that he had done considerable damage to the in terior. The Lady wished to know whether the Magistrates could compel him to give up her premises? But it appeared that the Magistrates juries:iesion, in cases of deserted possession. was only exercisable in those cases where a half year's rent was in arrear. The hatter, it seems, was aware of this circumstance, and had paid the last quarter's ground rent to the freeholder. This payment took the case out of the Act. The Magistrates said that the ease seemed very hard on the widow Lady. and regretted that, under present circumstances, they had no power to afford her any assistance. OPZRATION or VII PAVING Ave.—A ease of an information, under Michael Angelo Tayl"r's Act, commonly called the Metro polls Paving Act. which had been some days under consideration, was decided yesterday. The information was laid at the instance of the Paving Committee of St. Martin's in the Fields, against the lion. Mr. Bouverle, of the Urm . of Domenic and •Leporte, bankers ; and the obstruction vimpl..ined of was, a light iron railing which projected in front of their house. Mr. Alley appeared in suFpurt of the information, and Mr. 80l- Lnd on the past of the defendant. The l'arish Surveyor, being sworn, stated that the house In (mo tion was situate in the Haymarket, at the corner of James-street, and the railing placed in front of it, projected several feet over the pavement. Mt. liater.s—But is the width of the pavement in this the same as in other parts of the street? The Surveyor replied in the negative. The general width was 14 feet, but here it was only nine. Mr. Ha s.t.s•-•-rnen I take it as a clear case of obstruction. Mr. Ikniand suhmi•ted that the projection in question was not an encroachment. is did not rest on the ground, and bad existed, though somewhat differently, for years. Air. Alley— l t la by the Act very immaterial bow long it may have existed, as if, in the judgment of the Surveyor, k be an ob struction, the penalty mu.' he hiflicted. Sir liwitseto 1 saran said that such were the terms Of the Act, and they were bound to conviet on the evidence of the Surveyor. Alr. liollond suggested that the Magistrates should view the al. leged obstruction, which Chef aceordingly left the of to do, and on their return declared that it was impossible for them to do otherwise than convict. They then proceeded to inflict a penalty of luny shillings. Alr. liollsnd said ft was the intention of his client to appeal.— Notice of appeal was then given, and the panics retired. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Ysterday)Jr. a;,;;Wtitaniei, contractor for cleaning the re servoir in the Green Park of its accumulations of mad, was sum moned by Mr. Medhury, Inspector of Pave-aunts of the parish of &.

Mr. Stanley employed upwards of 30 carts in the service ; 11 of the carters were find ss. each, and Mr. Stanley 201. QUEEN—SQUARE. A Hums° Burcusa.—Yesterday a young man, named Thos. Newman, was charged before Messrs. Gasattair and Watts with assaulting G. Cole, of Leader -street, Chelsea, with a bortewhip. The complainant stated that shoot six o'clock on Monday even ing, he waa passing through Knightsbridge Turnpike on foot, when the defendant, who was on horseback, struck him a violent blow on the back with his whip. He immediately asked the defendant if he had struck him intentionally, when he replied, " Yes, d—n you ; and if you do not get out of my way, I'll knock you down with the butt-end of my whip, and ride over you." Not liking such treatment be made infinities where Ole defendant lived, and gut a warrant for him. Mr. Gatooant—Did you know the defendant before? Complainant—l never raw him in my life before, nor did I give him the sli;lnest provocation. Defendant—l can assure you the assault was unintentional. I had been down to Cranford a hunting with the hounds that threw cuff there, and on my return. the man at the toll-gate gate asked me to show my ticket, although he knew me perfectly well, and was aware that I lived close by, and had passed through the gate that very morning to Cranford.—Uvn this I struck at the man, who asked for my ticket, with my whip, which missed him, and hit the complainart, yeti , likely, over the shoulders, I will not deny it ; be then came up to ate, and abused me most grossly, and partly pulled of his coat to fight. Mr. Wurre—Pray what business are you? Defendant—Me, Sir, I ant a butcher. Mr. Wm:a—Anil are you in the habit of golaa hunting? Defendant—Occasionally I go hunting—sometimes I follow the Mr, Wunv—You do! Defendant—Yes, Sir, for amusement. After sonic consultation, 31t. G account said, they were clearly of opinion that the assault was not accidental, and fruit. the respect able demeanour of the complainant in the affair, be was sere an apology would have been suilicient.—Their judgment was, that the defendant pay a fine of X:, and tons. The butcher paid the money, and declared he should remember the hunt at Cranford Bridge the longest day he lived. HATTON-GARDEN. Ford We was brought tip fur final examination, before the Sitting Magistrate, Mr. Sergeant Sucov, charged with haying at tempted to murder George Baker, a watchman, at the Coach and Metes public house, Holborn, on the morning of the I;th inst.

He found his clothes greatly covered with Llood, and was somewhat alarmed at the time. The wound was on the left side of his belly. lie examined it, but did not And it to he dangeroug. Air. Butler, who attended professionally for the prisoner, asked it the wound was likely to endanger the life of the watc►man? Finatiderssaid—Not at all. as it was only superficial. The prosecutor deposed, that he watt called on at the hour to clear the public house of some persons who wanted to gamble, and on endeavouring to turn out the prisoner, a scuffle ensued, when be took up a penknife and struck him under the Newer rib. Other witnesses corroborated his evidence, and the prisoner was capitally committed. W ORS H IP-ST REET. Yesterday Johnston appeared in support of informations hid against a Mr. Hughes, and several other intermediate beer brewers, for selling beet on their premises, without being duly authorised under the New Licensing Act, which subjecfs them to a penalty of twenty rounds. Mr. baouonrox declared it al bii opinion, that the words" Inns, Ale-houses, or Victualling-houses; in the Act, meant houses for public accommodation, without any reference whatever to an in. termediste beer brewer, and dismissed all the complaints.
