The Writ of Habeas Cajun, Return, and feveral aitdavas were read. Mr. MACA NNNNN moved that the Defendant might be difcharged, on the round that the arrea was il• legal. The offence charged upon him was merely a mifdemeanor, and the arre(l attempted to be jnflified uncial. the fi.:tnte 44th of the King. Here the Coon fd adverted to previons argument; which took place in the Lord Chief Mice's hoofe. He quoted the cafe of Wilkes, arretlt el for a libel, and afterwards direbarged ; and from the arguments tired on that °mill:Jo he particularly adduced the opinion of Lord Chief Janice Pratt, " that 't is not bound to find &reties of the peace." Lord Chief Jullice DowN se obferved, that Wilkes was difeharged upon the ground of having privilege, and as to the expreflions quoted, it would be teen by adverting to the former part of his opinion, that Lord Chief Juffice Pratt mug have been mifrepre. fented ; befides that in another report thefe words are omitted altogether. In the former part he Pays, that " although it libel is not a breach of the peace, yet it is a great snifdemeanor, and requires bail ac cording to its circumtlances." Mr. 2.facsavorr proceeded to argue that the ffa tote did not apply to his client, and he recited the preamble to prove that the objeet was exprefbly, to bring offenders to jullice, who than have efcaped ; and farther, that the nature only embraced the higher order of crimes, and was to aft prefpeaively. Judge DAT fuppofed that the Counfel did not mean to confine the word efcape to its limited fenfe,h, but to any manner of migration; as in the cafe of a man committing an offence in England, and there bcing no defign of profecution, returning to Ireland, in the ordinary way, to his original habitation, " you would not," continued his Lordthip, " fay that that was not fnch an efcape as would come within the Ad ?" Mr. MACARTNEY certainly would not contend againft that, but urged that fuch a eon:4o6on could not have been generally in the contemplation of the Legiflature. From the affidavit of Mr. Emmerfon it appeared that the libel in quellion was alto pub hilted in this city, and therefore the ends of public juffice might be attained bete, without removing the Defendant out of the country. Judge Dst.r;--" But it does not follw that the publdhing a libel in England is the fame offence as publifhing it here." Mr. MACARTNEY did not mean to fay fo g but of fered the argument to induce to a benign con ftrudion of the Att. Judge Dity—" It (bikes me that a perfon pub lifhing a libel in England and Ireland may be pu ranted in both countries ; the conviaion in one being no bar in the other." Mr. MACARTNET•••••" Then he might be puni(hed in every county where the libel was publiffied." Judge DAY—" A conviaion in the fame ifland mightbe pleaded,but not between ifland and Mend." Mr. Pastes SIRJEANT contended, that the cafe came clearly within the ftatute, the enatffing words of which were as plain as poffible, viz. " If any per fon, againft whom a warrant shall iffue for any crime or ciince. fhall efcape, go into, rOde, or be, it (hall be lawlul, &c. &c." The (latute clearly fpecifies four cafes r—tft, The cafe of a perfon, who, after a war rant iffued, flies and efcapes, in the common i.nfe of the word, to another place. sd, The Lcgiflature then refleaed that a man, againft whom a warrant iffued, might not have knowledge of it, nor intending to fly from it, might go into another country, which could not be called an efcape, becaufe the intention might not be to fly from junice at the time. 3d, The framers of the Aft appear in the next place aware that there are crimes which may be propagated from one country to another, without the perfon of the of fender moving from his refidence ; therefore, they took in the cafe of a man who never might be in the country where the offence was committed, and therefore, though never refident there, nor efcaping froin it, but altogether refident in another country, and his domicile there confined, yet if the author of a crime in England, should not be free from the hand of jullice." 4th, But then it was feen that a man might make this objeaion—" I never (footed from England, nor ever was in England, and therefore I cannot have come from it ; nor am I refident in Ire land; I am only occalionally in Ireland—my peculiar domicile is in another place." To avoid any fuch cavil they introduced the word Ire, that if found there, he might be liable to a warrant from England. There are the plain enaCting words. The cafes are perfealy difiina and marked, and common fenfc (hews that filch muft have been the intention of the Legiflature. • Oppofed to the plain enacting expreffion, there was made no objeition but the preamble, which only men. Lions the word efcape; but the conclnfion urged does not apply, becaufe the preamble cannot controul the enaaing part of a datute. After having thus argued upon the conftruaion of the nature, the Ptime Ser jearit proceeded to thew that it did not at all affea the proteaion derived by the fubjea from the Habeas Corpus Aft, but rather fecured that liberty by more effeaually providing for the punifhment of offences agamA fociety, and that in perfeft correfpondence with the eftablifhed law of the land, which prefcribes that the offender (hall be brought to trial where the offence has been committed. As to arguments teem ing to arife a 6 iwcoameiderai, if they were to be admit ted, it would depend upon every man's private con itrualon, fancy, or caprice, whether the Alf fhould be valid or not. Therefore, if any inconvenience calif, it mutt be remedied by the Legiflature. If there be danger from profecutions in Scotland (alluding to a (tweed cafe put by Mr. Macartney, conne(ted with the Scotch law of Nomfecten, or home facking), let people take care how they offend there ; let them re- Member the motto of the Scotch thifile, *me NW inorne lac. With regard to another inconv,enience which has been urged, that no bail can be taken, it cannot occur in this cafe t becaufe no bail is offered. The war rant defires bail to be taken, but it may be faid that that can have no effect upon the power of the King's Bench, which cannot take bail. Here the queition cannot occur, becaufe the Crown has confznted that bail ihoald be taken, and therefore that inconvenience cannot wife, Judge DALTIS The flame does not give power to a Magifirate to bail, and therefore it is argued that , it does not extend to cafes bailable by law." NINA SZAJIANT—i , If that be RN there its no ' : meaning in the word rtmlrfinftor, fir evil doer. fume converfation ettfacd on the legai meaning of the term, in which it feeto.:d It( In under ;luta It ex.

THEATRE. Corr ter-Gael:lEll.—On Saturday evening a new Comedy, avowedly the prodalion of Mrs. IN c HBALD, was performed at this 'Theatre, intitled To Marry or, Mot to .Marry, and experienced a very favourable reception. DRAMATIS PIERSON/S. Mr. MUNDLN. Mr. MAUL& Mr. FARLES. Mr. Coo t. Mr. BRUNTON. Lord Danberry Sir Ofwin Maitland Mr Willowear • Mr. Lavenatordi Amos - Lady Salim Courtly Mrs. Gcoveit. Mrs. Sarah Moreland • Mrs. navels Po RT. Hefter • . - Mifs SHUTTLkWOP.Tn. The following is a corre& (ketch of the Fable - Mr. Lavensforth, in the catty part of his life, had been Goret nor of a Bridal fettlement, but, impeached in the Senate by Sir Ofwin Moreland, was obliged to quit his country, leaving his only cSild (Hefter) in the care ut a Mr. Afhdale, whore name [he bears, and by whom ihe is brought up. Mrs. Sarah Moreland, having feeh this young Lady at a bail, is much prepoffeffed in her favour, and gives her a general invitation to her brother's boufe. Solicited in marriage by a man the could rot love, whole addreffes, feccmd ed by the authority of her guardian, the was compelled to yield to, Hefter fought, by flight, to "void the hated match and availed herfelf of Mrs. Sarah's invitation. That Lady, knowing the aver- Son of her brother to the company of nrangers, particularly to that of the Ladies, is much embarraffed, and, in relating the caufe of Hefter's flight to her brother, the endeavours to excite his pity. and fucceeds. Mr. soidlowar (Hefter's lover) having difeovered her afylons, wafts dpob Oft ufwin, requefting him to return the young Lady to her guardian, which the Barudet prondfm to do, if Hefter cannot clear dp her =dad to him. In Ma inteniew with Hefter, 61r Otwin is captivated by the fimpliclty of her manners, and tech a warm attachment Ibr the yogi* fugitive, whd, on her part, is no leis prepoffeffed In farm of Sir ; and when Mr. Willowear waits upon him Sgain, be perfoadee that Gentleman to relinquifit all hopes of Hefter, and to pay his addreffes to Lady Sufan Courtly, whom Sit Ofwin's uncle (Lord Dauber:ly) is pref bog him to marry. Mr. Lavensforth having arrived, lives feelud. ed in a cottage. He is acquainted by Mr. *Wale with the dr. cumitances of his daughter's High t, which awaken his reveng-, and be orders his Week fervant (Amos) to watch the motions of Sir Ofwin, and writes to Hefter to come to him. Hefter obeys the fummons, and takes leave of Sir Ofwin to return to her father; but he, fearing ihe is to meet another lover, refolves to accompany her. Upon the road they are met by Amos, who accidentally diccover- Ins sir Ofwin, Ores at, and wounds him. Si r Of w i n ' s b or f e takes fright, and bears his matter to the cottage of Lavensforth, who, roofed by the call of help, runs to the Itranger's alliftance, binds up his wounds, and leads him into his dwelling. Amos arriving, relates what has happened, and Lavensforth difeoven tha:. he has his enemy in his power, but tlifdiins to injure him while under his rcof. Hefter's crrival diffipates the anger of Laversforth ; that young Lady relating to her father the kintlnds of Sir Ofwin, and the prornition he had afforded her, he is reconciled to her, and the parties fet out together on their return to Sir Ofwin's bottle. sir Ofwin's (errant having Sett reached home, and related what had paffed oti the road, Mrs. Sarah communicates the intePigence to Lady Sufan Courtly, who, fuppofing him dead, liftens to the pro. polies of Mr. Willowear, and thereby rcleafes Sir Ofwin from an extorted proud& of marriage, when Mr. Lavensforth, Sir Corwin, and 1 left:r, arrive..—An explanation takes place. Lord Danberry is pleafed with Lavensforth, who, in return for the protedjoit which Sir Ofwiu has afforded to Metter, gives him his daughter hand. The play is ;hroughou• rather of too hinbre a com plexion for a Comedy : at is, however, rendered very interefting by the is principal charaeers, fultain.d by Kemal.' and Coolie.—After the firft aft, we think the piece droops confiderably till the termination of the fourth, when the anxiety of the audience is wrought up to a confiderable pitch, in divining the means how two men, wino have ernertained fo rooted an enmity againft each other, fhall be brought into con• raft without a mortal contlie ; this bufinefs however is effeeed as the Rory alive lets forth, but not with much Rage effee ; the Lair authar, notwithßanding, has obtained the grand end, which fhefeerned to have had in view, of impreffing this valuable truth, that the ftrongeft refo:utions of human nature, as they are founded in frailty, ought to give way to maturc re fleeion. All the other charafters of the play are greatly fubordinate to time to which we have allud• ed, and though admirably performed, made little impreftion; that allotted to M EMDEN is far beneath hi talents; he however givn it a prominence in the dra matic canvas which, in other hands, it would hardly have attained. The young Lady who played the part of /7r,ler, a deiritante, proutiies to be an acquifttion to the nage in charaelcrs diflinguilhed for Complicity ; the was loudly applauded, as was it.:ovc,l the performance through. out. The return of Mr. Iro , mime was hoiled by three cheers, and his wring ilitived of the &Li order, ar was alfo that of Mr. Coors. The Prologue and t plogue were much in thr nld way; the fieck.os Mere Mr. Bevirrou and Mss Gwvlß. The hustle was extremely crowded.
