Mr. Alderman Ausrrrwa; engage diorabove an boar in; Altti. the identity of a bull d.g, the claimants coming befure the pumas i d aartner by agreement to have the question put to nut. John Newport, servant to Mr. Foster, the mans in Calvert's brewery, was in possession of De animal, asserted that it was his master's property, and was tired in his stables. On the contrary, Joseph Warren, a milkman; in Margareadreet, Northampton.square, undertook to ebew that it was bred elsewhere, and calved Charles Newman, of Howard's grass, City.road, shoe maker, who swore the dog in question was one of a litter bred from a bitc h which he produced ; it was a year old. and he bad seen It constantly every eight or ten days up t. the last fortnight. John Payne,- a watch finisher, in GoswelDstroet-road, deposed, that he bought the disputed dog from the last witness when it was fear mouths ell He kept it six months, and was positive this was the same dog. Ve paid 48. for it, and 0 stood" . a pet of beer.... ( A laugh.) William Graves, of Pullen's Gerdes., Holloway, hetegbt It of Payne for M. about nu weeks ago, and sold It to Warren, the milkman, fur los. He was equally sore that the dog in dispute was the same be had so bought and sold. Warren stated that he had the dog in Ms possession for a fort night, and it was claimed by Newport on Tuesday morning, in lianktreet, Blackfriars. He predaced the dog's three brothers b two of deem were amaiar as to the dee, the marks, growth of the teeth, he. but no one could believe that the third brother was lit tered at the same time, he was so much stronger and older in ap pearance. 'lbis was Wanea's case. Newport stated that the dog in dispute was but eight months old, and was stolen on the lath of November. He saw it on Monday morning, in Warren's possession, in Earldreet, and re. cognized it by its countenance, by the spots, and by a crook in the tad. He claimed it; but the milkman clasped it in his arms, and ' cried, " I shan't be bounced out of it." The nest marring he laid wait for hint with a coustable, and seised it. James Mania said, he was Mr. Poster's " Ridirg master." He had been giving a filly her usual lesson ene mowing, when, in putting Der into the stable again, the puppy bolted. He was quite 1 tee tain the dog produced was the same. There was a peculiar crook in the tail, from a horse having tied on tr. . A MU who had cropped the papty's ears and tail swore as pod- 11 tieely to the deg being Mr. Foster s. Tbe 'crook in the tail was principally what he could swear from. William Fritterworth, a smug to *brandy-merchant in Suffolk lane, who bad repeatedly seen the puppy in Mr. Footer's stables, was sure this was the same animal. Mr Alderman Avatar said, be was sou engaged fora week In heari4 a dog cue, but this would be more easily settled. The mark fronathe horse treading upon the tail there mold be no mistake shout.

Rector of Crazheid, Bedfordshire. been in pursuit of other game--that had been poaching' on another manor than Mr. Clinton's; and feeling em barrassed at being asked such an awkward question. and that by Mr. Gates too, he gave an evasive, con , fined answer, in order to turn Mr. Gates off the scent? Might not this convenient husband have been used by the defendant as over-jealous husbands were treated by gallants in the old comedies, namely, turned into ridi cule, and made the instruments of their own delusion and dishonour? But is to the evidence. it did not contain one single proof of an illicit connection between the defendant and the plaintiff's wife. Why was not Mrs. Gates called. who could give such decisive evidence on the point? And why was Mr. Gates called, who could state no one act of impropriety? But further— lind it been proved that the defendant and Mrs. Clinton were in the habit of seeing each other sinceber sepaa tion from her husband? No; and surely if she had been connected with him (the defendant) before, she would, now that she was deserted by her husband, have kept up the illicit intercourse since that separation; for it was notorious when women lost their virtue, they inva riably lost their prudence also.. The moment they admitted the contamination of guilt, their modesty and their caution quitted them together, and left them open to detection and punishment. But what was the real object of this action? Why this—to bar a suit for maintenance, which the wife had instituted against him ; and. perhaps, another suit, for the restitution of conjugal rights. But, in the object of the latter suit, she could. not but fail, (namely, the restitution of her conjugal rights) even though sbe won the suit, and though her husband was compelled to return to her—for, though oqe man could lead a horse to the water, twenty men could not force him to drink of it--(Laughter). But it the plaintiff could, by obtaining a verdict in the present action, defeat his wile's suit for maintenance, then be would be able to throw her into destitution for ever, and live the remainder of his life with Miss Betsey May— (A laugh.) Juries had lately gone too far with their verdicts in these cases, even where the facts of criminal intercourse were clearly proved ; but, in the present case, in which no one act of guilt, or even impropriety, had appeared in evidence. lie was sure the Jury would give their verdict in favour of the defendant. Chief Justice Bur briefly addressed the Jury on the law and the evidence of the case. Panties ocular proof of the criminal act was not necessary to was rant a ver dict for the plaintiff. if be could prove the existence of opportunities, and such a train of minor circum stances—such as dalliance—as would inferentially lead to proof—then a general tendency and inclina tion to illicit intercourse between the parties—that would be sufficient. In the present case, there was not one scintilla of evidence to prove improper lanai. ities, much less the act of guilt. The whole charge rested on a loose story told by a man who allowed his wife to reside under the same roof with persons whom he sus pected to be criminally connected. The absence of Mrs. Gates, too,from this tr ial,was a very remarkable circum stance, and very unfavourable to the . plaintiff's case.— If every thing had been right and honest in her ac quaintance with the parties, she, doubtlessly, would have come forward with her testimony, which would have settled the question at once. The plaintiff should have produced Miss Betsy May also; but he cltd not, and the Jury ought to conclude why he did sot. It was their duty to consider whether, on such evidence as they had heard, these was such proof as could enable them to pi onounce, that an illicit connection had taken place between the parties? but even if they could decide that it had, they should then estimate what amount of compensition in damages that man de served, who, having turned out his wife to poverty, on the ground of the impropriety of her conduct. straight. way threw him.elf into the arms of an abandoned wo an. The Jury, without the least hesitation, found a ver dict for the defendant. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. TAUNTON, Ann. Is. Mersa iroork was capitally convicted of stealing several sheep, the property of a farmer residing near Bridgewater. The evidence was very clear against the prisoner ; but on the Jury returning a verdict of Guihy, the prosecutor begged leave to recommend the pri soner to mercy, on accoont of his youth. The Jonce—That is no ground, Sir, for recommend ing a man to mercy, who appears to have been making a living of stealing the sheep of the farmers throughout the county. You have no right to make such a recom mendation to the Judge•—it is very unprincipled. You bring the man here and prosecute him, and then throw the-odium of the punishment upon me, when the whole country is crying out upon the frequency of this offence of sheep stealing. Your recommendation cannot be attended to, fur do not know but that I 'alight to make an example of this man. I shall turn it over in my mind, and when the other sheep stealers come up foe judgment, I will decide what to do with this man. GLOUCEBTRR. MUIR v. zozarate. Mr. TAUNTON stated that this was an action for a malicious prosecution, which arose out of certain dis turbances that occurred some time since in the cloth manufacturing district of the county of Gloucester. It was probably in the recollection of the Jury, that in the year 1825 some very serious differences- existed between the w and their employers, and that in the riots which occurred in the course of those differences sm. ral persons were ducked by the rioters. One of those who was unfortunate enbugh to be ducked, was the' present defendant, but with that ducking the plaintif f had nothing to do. However, the defendant thought proper to ch srge the plaintiff with being active in the outrage, and the plamiiff was in consequence cons., 'flitted for want of bail. However, on his obtaining bail he was released. The defendant, however, did not allow the case to drop there, for he prosecuted the plaintiff at the Sessions, where he was acquitted. For this prosecution, so maliciously carried on against him, the plaintiff now sought a compensation. Henry Burgh, Esq. said—l am a Magistrate of Gloucestershire. In the year 1825 there were riots and disturbances among the clothing men. The defendant came before me on the sth of August to lay a com plaint against the plaintiff.—(The deposition of the de fendant taken before Mr. Burgh was read.) It slated that he was seized by a number of persons, who tine, him into a pond, and that when he attempted to get out, the plaintiff pushed bins back, and that afterwards the mob pulled him out, and led him through the itreets of Stroud. • Cross-examined by Mt. C. PHILLIPS —The mob 'consisted of nearly seven thousand persons. The plaintiff I was much injured. Mr. Windley said-1 am ti , e Governor of the Bride. well at Horsley. The plaintiff was in . my custody from the Bth.of July, whente was bailed. The Deputy Clerk of the Peace proved that the plain. tiff had been indicted at the Sessions for assaulting the defendant, and was acquitted. John Smith said—l know the plaintiff—he is a weaver. The defendant is a shoemaker. 1 remember the defendant's telling me be would never have anything' to do with Peyler if he had not sent ' him a lawyer s letter, but now he would be d—d if he would not haird .l him in a prison before the week was out. Cross-examined—l atn a weaver. I will swear that the plaintiff did not quit the neighbourhood just after the defendant was ducked. I know he did r.ot leave home, because he rents a loom of me. Benjamin Bas foot said-1 was present when Cul.trm, the defendant, was ducked. I was at first about fifty yards off, but I afterwards got close to the pond. j saw Colston in the water. He said to some one on the bank, Reuben, help me out.

She was in blooming health prosecuted the plaintiff in malice? N ow so far from that, when she went to the defendants ;and in February last, he was in a condition to shew that t here was more than plaintiff cause for the charge. They had heard that the on her return to the Workhouse, she was so emscia ed plaintiff was made very ill by the treatment he had and altered in her appearance, that the Overseers did received, that they bad beard that a band of seven not recognise her. Her hands and feet were covered thousand persons were assembled together for the pur widt t sores , and chilblains, and she was incapa b le of pose ot outrage. Two witnesses were called, who said walking. She complained of being kept short of food , that they did not see the plaintiff assist i n the ducking and of cruel treatment. but the plaintiff's Counsel did not dare ask the witness Mr. PRENDERGAST called witnesses to support the Smith. of whom be rented a loom, whether he was at charge, and Mr. PHILLIPS addressed the Jury for the work at his loom on the day of the riot ? It was never defence. It appeared, that the girl had been charged alleged that the plaintiff was the same person who was by her mistress with laziness and dirtiness, and that called Reuben, and not even one for a moment thought she was treated the same as the defendants own drat he was; but had the plaintiff adduced the slightest children. The Jury, without hearing the witnesses for evidence that he was not in the crowd, and assisting in the defence, returned a verdict of—Net Guilty. - the act of putting the defendant into the water ? A STAGE COACHES. great deal of stress had been laid on the fact of the de. J.

He Mr. Anotenua for the defence. would now tell them what part the plaintiff really took It was proved by Pyall, that he was employed as in the ducking.

A How-street patrol, was brought before ilse Loan Maros, charged with having exceeded his duty in a Ant offensive manner. A lad of gond character, it was stated in evidence, was going along in the neighbourhood of Mt atling-street, with a bag contain ing chaff en his shoulder. The patrol, apou seeing bins, went up and asked him what he had in his bag ? but as the person did not appear to the lad to be authorized to make such inquiry, the an swer returned was not quite so satisfactory as the dignity of. Use interrogator required. Indignant at not having met with a sub missive explanation, the patrol seized the boy, shoved him into a shop, said that be knew him to he a bad character, and insisted upon knowing the consents of the bag. Some persons who ob served the cotwAuct of the defendant, who was evidently intoxi cated, expostulated with him, and asked him by what atitkorky he treated the lad with such indignity? lie immediately *mew down his staff, and said, " Ey that !"

The LORD Maros asked whether the defendant was a Bow street °Meer ?—An answer was given in the affirmative. His Lordship asked the patrol what he had to say fur himself? " Why," said he, with his arms folded, " I wgs going down Watling-street, and saw this boy with a bag. He looked like a bad one I have seen at Islington and I took him for the same and asked him what was in the bag? s What's that to your sa id he. do I took him into the :hop to see whether my suspicions were correct." The defendant added, that the language he bad been sub _jetted to was such as to cause hint to retaliate. The Loan MATOR,-Let the City Solicitor be instructed to pro. emote this person. If the people of the City of London are to be ssaulted by drunken police awns, I don't know what we shall come to by-and-by. There must be twenty-four boute.notiee of bail. Police officers are extremely useful; hut if they-nibistondutt themselves, and abuse the power they are entkkti to. eiteteise, no persons can do more mischief. Two officers of the establishmtnt of Bow-street stated that they attended by direction of the Magistrates, to ascertain the nature of the charge against the defendant, who had been an officer only six days.
