If this perfon had confined himfclf to the fphere of his private duty, he would not have been Ruled by this anonymous writer ; but beeaufe he Rapped forward is the molt dangerous times to promote the welfare of his coun try. he was expofed to the envenomed arrows of the fecret affaffin. He (the learned Counfel) was the man, the kali Mr all difpofed to Declaim in favour of, the .atholic tenets ; he was not only a Proteflant, but he was boin and bred in that part of the domi nions of his Sovereign ' whew, to avail himfelf of a flrong expreffion which had been employed, pro felledled the ',avian:Vol of the Protillant religion. He confidered the writ of the Reformation as fupplying the mon luininoth page in the annals of our country, and theevent as eminently conducive to improve and humanife the fpecies. Another important period was that of the Union with the Sifter Ifland; and he null ed, when the firength tithe Britilh empire was com bined, we fhould be competent to bid defiance to the bolts of an embattled woad. It would be lien, that thefe oblervations were not irrelevant : the jullice of this part of the kingdom would be acknowledged or denied acc , wding to the deciflon of our Courts in cafes of this nature. The lsifi'ole Judge who now prefided was at all tines difpofed to difpeirle the laws with equity and with waom, but he knew, he could not but know, he would regard thole eternal principles of right on this occafion, when the Catholic fought prntedion front the public inflivations of the State. pecuniary compenfation the Jury could align could repair the injury an Plaintiff had full:lined by flander widely and indtalrioufly diffeminered. It was the infirmity of all human laws, that, for a wounded fpirit no cure could be provided ; but it would at lealt be latistallory that when, in futureages, this calumny fhould be recorded, the verdia of a Bata Jury &mild be proclaimed to vindicate the inflated honour of this individual. Many unhappy --differences had arifen among Chriftians, which had deluged the world in blood. Our GasaT Masras —h id fai.l— deAgn to injete his &maw. This cattfe had hcen poit_poned on account of the abfence of the Earl ef Pinot and it was quite apparent, that the real intentinit was, not to vindicate the eharafter of the Plaintiff, but to give the authority of the Verdift of an Eniliflt Jury to a Roman Catholic queftion which, by an unlucky accident, was decided in the Houfe of Commons before this caufe could be determined. “ 'think not that I come to bring peace; 1 conic not to bring , peace hi the world, but a (word. Yet it was to be hoped, from the mercy of Plovt• attics. that by flow •:.egrees, at polemical corneas will fubfide, and that Catholic and Proteßant, the folloseere of Confucius, Mahomet, and of Chrill, will be tutiled in one common bond of love and fen timent. The Miniitry might be confidered in a du plex view, as fpiritual and temporal. When the oath of fupremacy was carried into a law, Qzeen Elizabeth was told, that. the former charafter no earthly authority.could confer. The Plaintiff, a Ro• man Catholic Priell, (Whining the honours of the Titular Archbifhop of Dublin, naturally fuppofed that the veneration for his charafter and the dignity of his Ration, would procure him great - influence over the lower et:lifts of the hint concerned in the late ebellion. The refpea for the Proteßant,Clergy was not inconfiderable, but it bore no proportion to the profound reverence in which the Minilters of religion Of the Catholic perfuafion were held. This reverend petrol . ' was anxious that the authority he poffeffed fhould be employed in the moment of peril for the reiteration of peace, happinefe, and profperity. The Learned Counfel Paid, the circumilances of his proof did not require that he fhould detain the Noble perfons who bad appeared in Court and withdrawn ; of the affiftaace, however, of the Earl of Fingal, he fhould avail himfelf, but not of an Honourable Gen tleman (Mr. Wickham, then on the Bench), whore intimate knowkdge of his client, and great refpea for his ch.:latter, it would be firlficient merely to (late. The publication was proved by James Anber. The Earl of Fingal raid, he was of the Catholic profeiEon, and that he refided in Ireland. Mr. ERSKINE was propofing a queftion refpeaing the correfpondence between his Lordfhip and the Chancellor of Ireland, VA* he was interrupted by Mr. GARROw, who object elf to any obfervation.s, un lefs the letters were produced and proved. A Jong altercation took place between the Learned Counfel on bo:h fiats, dining which the different counts were examined as applicable to this correfpondence. In the fervid the Cntry Jusrict ruled, that no interro gatories on that fulsjea were adestiflible until the let ters appeared in Cgurt. The confequence of this de termination was, that the averments rcfpedting the exhortation to the Clergy of the Arch-diocefe were unfirpported. Mr. GARKOW (poke with great energy for nearly two brows. He was not fo fanguine as his Learned Friend in expecting, or even in wifhing, that we fhould all be of one flock, under one fhepherd. Until the dif. pofitions of mankind were more fuited to fuch an union, it could not be beneficial or- deGrable. It was fingular, that the plaintiff was the only one who chofe to objefb to•this publication, and who thought his cliaradier was at all implicated in its contents. The Noble Perfon then prefent (Lord FINGAL) and the titular Bifitop of Cloyne, had more apparent ground of complaint. It was not Ids extraordinary, that this aaion was brought before a jury in Middle rex, inflead of being committed to thofe who admini fler in the county whcij the Plaintiff refided. In order to give a degree of importance to the caufs which did not belong to it, Lords Sidmnuth, Camden, Well. moreland, and Caillereagh, were all required to at tend on the part of the Plaintiff; but their authority, it feemed, could he of no rile to him ; and after mak ing their bow to his Lordfhip on their entrance, and littening to a polite apology from his Learned Friend, they repeated their bow, and retired. This acquits.' lion, to dignify the proceedings, was not made with out fome trouble and ceremony. A (cries of appli. cations was made to thefe Noble Perfons, and they were nrialy enjoined to be prefent in Court at nine o'clock ; Lit by the indulgence of their ordinarrre pole, they fhould he too late to fanflion the preten lions ot this Plaintiff. But it was not enough that thefe Peers. fhould advance before the curtain. His Learned Friend lamented pathetically the abfence of Lord Redefdale, aid the Earl of Chichefter and there was a f rt ot plikintafmagoria difplay of por traits, which in no way contributed to the tellimony in the caufe. Mr. GARROW concluded with obferv. ing, that the few lines in the Pamphlet, to which the evidence applied, were only employed in the way of general difcullion, and that the Defendant' bad no knowle ft dge of the Plaintiff, and had not the la, • Ldrd ELLwasottoncit having Dimmed up the evi dence, the Jury found—A_Pertfia for the Plehriilf sol. In the caufe of TROY y. HALES, for the fame libel, Mr. Easaise fignified, that fo far from having any mercenary views, the Plaintiff would be fatisfied with nominal damages and his coils. The Verdi& was given accordingly. *son may, JULY SO. LORD MACCLESFIELD v. HODGES AND OTHIRRS. The Plaintiff refides in Conduit-Ilreet, in the parifh cf Sr. George, Hanover-fquare : the Defendants are Commiffioners for paving and lighting that difiria. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL (aid, that this ot9ion was brought againft the Defendants for pulling down and carrying away fome gates belonging to the Noble Plaintiff, which abated the communication be tween his Lordfhip's Rabies and Maddox.ftreet. He &mild Ihew the title the Plaintiff had to the polreffion of the yard thus feparated from the (freer, and he fhould prove the violence was committed ; after which he was authorifed to tape& the verdift of the Jury. The witneffes having withdrawn, Mr. PARER, for the Defendants, laid, that the parill of Sr. George, Hanover-fquare, had always the reputation of decency and propriety, and its affairs were concluded by Lords Romney, Hamp den, and many other perfons cf the Rrtt dißinetion in that neighbourhood. The yard from which the public were excluded by thefe gates of the Plaintiff, was public grounl, to the enjoyment of which all his Majefty's fubjels were entitled. As a proof of this right, he fhould thew, that for twenty years pall it had been lighted, and that in 1793 and in 1799 it had been paved at the parochial expencc. The Comma: fingers, who were the Defendants, were appointed under the flame of the a9th Geo. 3. C. 75, and it was their duty not to admit the public itrivileges to be in fringed. If the place were oecafionally converted to the reception of proftitutes, every fituation was liable .to be abufed, and the inoffenfive paffengers were not to be denied that accommodation which the parochial limits afforded them. When the evidence was con . eluded, Lord ELLENBOROUGH Rated the nature of the aftion, the principles of law, and the faits as refer. able to them. He kid, the confederation for the Jury was, whether the fp,ice from which the public were prevented free admitlion, was a place under the care of the Parochial Commillioners, within he meaning of the A. A place might be entirely laid open at aU times, or might be public only fub roodo. If the juty thought that his Lordfhip had no general right, they might confider he had a partial tight, at particular times and fcafons. to prevent intruhon on the premifes. The cirenmftance, however, of the lighting and paving at the expense of the parifh, was indicative that no fuch right exiled; but the Jury would attend to all the circumßances of the cafe, and draw their conclufion accordingly.—Verdict for the Defendants.

The prifuner had informed the witnefs that he did not like to be feen in the high road with him, left he fhould be owned, and that he had given to). for him. There was, however, a good deal of obfcurity in the whole of the evidence, and the Jury gave the prifoner the benefit of it, by a verdict of acquittal.. The prifoner was arraigned on a fecond indi,-- ment, for Healing a bay horfe, the property-of Mr. Ellis, of Gravefend. The horfe was Rolen from the Prolecutot's Rabies in July 184, and although hand bills, &c. were difperfcd throughout the country, hd was never heard of until recently difcovered in the Chelfea Rage, the proprietor of which produced the receipt of the purchafe from the prifoner.—Guilty ; and yof.

The prifoner, a young man of genteel appearance, was in the habit of paying Sunday morning vifits to Rowe, the profecutor's apprentice, and money had been miffed regularly every Sunday from the profe cutor's drawers in the parlour. He tufpeeted the prifoner. The parlour was [operated from the count ing houfe of Mr. Turner, the next door neighbour, by a flight partition, and Mr. B. canted a hole to be bored, by which, with the affiftance of Mr. Todd, clerk to Mr. Turner, the prifoner was detetted. He rung at the bell as ufual, on Sunday June 9. when Mr. T. placed himfelf at the hole, and while the errand-boy was gone up (lairs to call Rowe, he law the prifoner open the drawers, and put tome ' thing in his pocket in time fufficient to place himfelf in the [hop, where the boy had left him, before his return. Mr. Todd gave the alarm to the profecutor, who canted the prifoner to be fecured. The profe cutor bad marked 16 guineas, five of which were miffing, and they had been concealed by the prifoner under the counter. Seven were conviEled of felonies, viz.

This was an-action ag . ainft the Defendant, who is:a reputable fhip chandler in the immediate vicinity of the Thames Police Office, for having in his poieffion, knowingly, a flag and union, with the marks upen them, (hewing them to be the King's norm It appeared from the evidence adduced, that the Defendant lived within a few yards of the Thames Police Office ; that a Conflable belonging to that of fice having come into his flop on the t7th of March LW, faw a young man in the moil public place in the Chop, and as the Surveyor for the Office deferibed it. in the moil public place in the parith of Shadwell, uhlefs he had done it in the open beets, repairing a flag, which he difcovered to be King's notes. He left the flop, begging permiffien, on his return, to turn Come copper in the Defendant's vice. This was readily granted him, and on his return he found the young man engaged in the fame employment in which he had left him. He returned with the Prin cipal Surveyor. On being informed that the flag bore the mark of being King's Bores, the Defendant alked with furprife, if it did ? When the Union was found lying on the window, he told the officer they need not examine it, as it was the Union belonging to the flag which they had feen. He then molt willingly agreed to accompany the officers through the whole of his premifes, which they could not have fearched without a warrant ; and although they difcovered of King's (lures to the amount of from 4 to pool. they' law nothing which warranted them in fuppoling there was any impropriety in its being in the Defen• data's pn Ife ffion , they beingall fuch nom as are ufually purchafed at (ales in the yards. and the Defendant being known to them to be a conliderable purchafer.

He contended that althopgh ignorantia loge: sea exesfat, this was not an ignorance of the law, but an igno rance of the fad, which would entitle the Defendant to a verdia in his favour.—He adduced many wit. neffes, dealers in articles like thefe found in the De fendant's pofftffion, who declared that they never knew that any•mark fimilar to that which had been fhewn them !ince the prefent queftion oziginated, belonged to King's Mires of that defcription ; and that they would innocently, fo far as intention or knowledge was concerned, have purchafed the articles fazed in the defendant's poffeffion.
