THE SECOND LION FIGHT. [The following account is from a Correspondent at Warwick.

In the Ist round, Tinker and Ball were let loose, and bath made a gallant attack ; the lion having waited for them as if aware efehe approach of his fees.

Ball, released from the paw, worked •all he could, but Wallace treated his slight punishment by a kick now and then.

Plea, the general issue. Mr. GURNEY stated the case. The plaintiff was a re spectable man, with a large family of children, living at Fordwich, in this county. The defendant was a young Gentleman of respectable and wealthy connec tions, living at Westbeer, an adjoinipg pFish in the same county. In the latter end of 11123,•5he defendant became introduced to the plaintiff's family, and almost immediately paid his addresses to Miss Harriet Bishop.' He was favourably received by the Lady, and his 'de l ' vanes were countenanced by the father. Miss Bixhor was a young Lady of handsome person, prepossessing manners, and of a strictly virtuous education. At the present time she was about nineteen years of age. - nto defendant was about thirty, and had arrived at than time of life which gave him great advantage over the', other sex. During the courtship, which lasted some , eight months, he gained great ascendancy over Miss Bishop's affections, but it was never dreamt that he me ditated any attack upon her (rime. By his seductive arts, however, he succeeded at last in undermining her chastity. It would appear, that be told her he would never become her husband, unless she yielded to the consummation of iris wishes. Relying on his sacred promises of marriage, and in confidence of his honour, unhappily she yielded to his improper views. As might naturally be expected, after the first lapse (1 virtue, the intercourse was repeated, until, in the month of May last year, she found herself in a state of pregnancy. Unwilling to make a disclosure which must involve her family in misery, she kept her situation secret until the month of September, when, bring invited to spend souse weeks with a Mrs. Urquhart, a friend of the family, residing in London, she made known her un happy state to that Lady, leaving it to her discretion to break the matter to her family. Ultimately the' 'defendant's promises of marriage proved delusive, and the painful necessity of commencing the present action was imposed on the plaintiff. Miss Harriet Jane Bishop was then called and ex amined, and from her evidence it appeared, that she yielded to the repeated solicitations of the defendant, in a field near her father's house, and subsequently the intercourse was repeated in a wood, and elsewhere. Upon the part of the defendant it was urged, and, indeed, proved, that the conduct of Miss Bishop tad been charac terised by the greatest levity; that she had taken three days to deliberate upon the sacrifice of her chastity, and that the cousins of the defendant had taken such • liberties with her person at proved her utter disregard to modesty. Under all the circumstances,• it was agreed by the defendant's Counsel, without going to the Jury, to submit to • a verdict of Fifty. Pounds MAY u. iitOwtr. This was an action against the Superintendant of his Majesty's Dock Yard at Sheerness, for negligently mooring certain craft in the Medway, whereby a hey, called the Matchless, belonging to the plaintiff, having broken from her moorings, was drifted upon a hawrier and sunk, and her cargo lost, to the plaintiff's damage of 2,000/. The question in the case was, whether tit plaintiff's misfortune did . not arise f;enr the jabi m magement of his own vessel ? After a trial, which lasted many hours, the Jury found their verdict for the defendant. The Assizes ended in the afternoon. On tlse•Crovnt Side, the matt capital convict left for execution was iriftians Bump, who was found guilty of botse-steallag. . *g , SHREWSBURY..

They were instituted by the party opposed . Ito Lord Grosvenor, and were founded on an objection to the power assumed by the Common Cotincil to elect Corporate Officers, and to the Common. Council it-. self as a Corporation .. . To. sustain the existing state of things,. it became necessary . for the defendants to prove that the Common Council had existed before time of legal memory ; and a • mass of evidence was adduced by. Mr. TAUNTON., who conducted. the defend-., ant's case for that purpose; but the jury; before hear ing the defendant's evidence, after the address of Mr. CAMPBELL, •expressed their opinion that the prescrip tion was not proved, .and accordingly found for the relator, without entering into the remainin&issues. • EXETER JULY pp. CHARGE OF ARSON. VIE KING AT TIIR PROSECUTION OP THE HUN. POWNAL BASTARD PELLZW, V. JOHN OTTON. This was an indictment against the prisoner, a re spectable and extensive farmer, for wilfully, maliciouslyi and feloniously setting fire to certain out-houses, the property of the Hon. P. B. Pellew, at Canonteign Bar- , ton, in this county, on the 9th July inst. There was also a second ind?etment. charging the prisoner with having fired a dwelling house similarly situated, and on the same day, also the property of the prosecutor. This cause was one of great importance, and excited an cursor diaary degree of interest in Exeter and its vicinity, on account of the high respectability of the party charged with the offence, and the rank of the prosecutor. • The Bench was crowded with Ma gistrates, and contained most of the rank and properly of this part of the country. Lord Exmouth occupied a conspicuous place, and appeared to pay close attention to the proceedings of the day.--The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. CoLEftwon stated the, case, • mentioning to the Jury the facts which he afterwards proved in evidence. The few comments the Learned Gentleman offered were so remarkable for temperance and moderation, as to call down the marked approbation of the Court at a subsequent period of the proceedings. The following witnesses were then called for the prosecution : The Hon. Pownall Bastard Pellew being sworn, de posed as follows am acquainted with the estate ofi Canonteign Barton. It is situated in the parish of Christon, in this county. It is my propirty ; and a Kyr vent, who is my gamekeeper, John Pennington, the younger. occupies a part of it. I remember the 9th of July, I was on the estate on that day; I was within a mile of the mansion-house, and not farther from it, during the whole of the day. I observed the fire ; the first alarm was given at about half-pait one. When we advanced to the hedge so as to see the fire, the upper flax-barn . was burning. The flax•bain is situated at the higher end of an orchard, eiled.M4-, dam's Orchard, at the corner of a road g . from the farm to the parish of Christon, anctel. places.-= The barn stands perfectly gone, but there 'sire tin; cot tages on the opposite side of the road . ; the breadth of the road that separates them is 20 feet or thereabouts. M y 'gamekeeper, Pennington the younger, is ..in the occupation of part of the house. Mi. John Otton, the prisoner, is in occupati. nof the other part. .Upon , observing the fire, 1 immediately came down towards. it. When I had got down to within 560 yards of the farm-yard, I observed smoke is.rxing from • the thatch of the machine-barn. There vea:a b•eeze at the .ime. The wind was, as.nearly as I can state, south. east Or south-southeast. Thwilirtytion from the flax-barn to the machine-barn is south-west as I think, or math-sou th west. . I immediately proceeded, on straying at the farni-yard, to direct the end of the lenny nearest the higher cellar tribe unthatched. There were no per'o .2 id the farm-yard when I first came into it. Seer:al , came afterwards. A ft er s ome time I went to the pound- I house. I first saw the prisoner standing in the yard by' the pond; be was doing nothing at that moment. 'flint was before I went to the pound-house. I searched the pound-house; I found nothing, but a man named Ce- . phas Luccas found a ball of tow on fire. I was at the door when he brought it our, and it was flaming ; I saw the prisoner aeveral times during the fire, on those oc -1 cations he was doing nothing himself, nor directing others to att. I observed nothing else in any other p 4rt of the buildings. The premises continued burning UT a half or three quarters of an hour. I saw the ptisonei next day, and bad a great deal of conversation with him. Cephas Luccas—l know Canonteign Barton, and was there on the day of the fire. I know the pound-house and lower cellar. On coming into the pound-house, I observed a smoke, Which was inside the Found. I went to the place whence I saw it proceed. There was st.me, .straw there, and that (aught fire as I came to it. It was close by the potind (cyder press) where I saw the smoke ; I stamped out the fire with my foot ; I ea emitted farther, and found a small stick of dry wood, about two feet long, and about two inches square. Then I found a lock of flu or two, ebout the size of my fist. burning on the outside. The tow was inside the pound under a lock of straw, close under the burning straw. I took it up, and gave it to a Gentleman, who was standing just by.. . . James Ellis, an (Acre of Bow-street, was sent to about the fire. I had a •convettation with Mr. Otton on the Saturday after the fire. I held out neither threat nor promise. I asked him to accompany me to the tipper barn, and generally roond the premises. We walked up to the upper barn, where I observed a hole in the wall, large enough for a person to get through. It was through the wall into the yard, adjoining the barn, not into the barn itself. I asked him if that hole was'open ? he said on the morning of the fire he pushed some thorns in with his foot himself. I asked him where he was when the first alarm of fire was given ? he said in his own house. I asked him who made the alarm ?he said one of his own servants, a flazrnan. I asked if he went immediately to the fire? he said.he did, accompanied by the man and some boys ; he said he assisted in removing the furniture and goods of the two cottages, and remained there the whole time till the second barn was on fire. I asked him if he had been at all away from it during the time between the breaking out of the first and second fires ? he said he bad not. He said he had not been in the orchard at all. John Lloyd Symes.--I am sub-agent to the Norwich Union Insurance Company; I know Mr.Otton I he came to use about his policy of insurance about a week or fort night before the fire, to see if all was right. There had been a mistake in the payment, and he came to rectify it. The first insurance he effected in our office was in 1829. In October last he increased the amount insured from Sat to 7601. When Mr. Otten came for the policy, he had a glass of grog and tome bread' and cheese for supper with Me. We. bad easier etnversation together,, and be appeared alum& in consequence of Captain Vellevea plantation being set on fire. That occurred on the day be came about the policy. tbiS prisoner asked late to shire fora few minutes, which was V itea ' an V e s X bill the ban. Qistkele return, r.

Gentlemen, may your hearts long be blessed with the recollection of baying saved one, who, but for you, might have unjustly perished." . When the raiding of this statement had finished, there was a loud and general expression of approbation and sympathy through out the Court. Several witnesses proved that the prisoner was actively engaged during the fire in endeavouring to save the property, and check the progresrof the flames. Mr. Justice GASILLEZ observed, that this was a -case, as the Jury must have perceived, supported merely by circumstantial evidence, and although that description of proof was frequently very cogent and convincing, yet, as in the present instance, where a malicious mo. tive did not appear to be imputed, and the proof of an interested purpose was not clearly made out, the Jury would do well to receive with caution and circumspec tion such circumstances as had been adduced in proof of the offence with which the prisor.er stood charged. The Jury, witbod hesitation, returned a enact—NW Guilty. Mr. Otto°, who is a highly respectable looking man, about 40 years of age, bowed to the Court and Jury, and retired. He was attended by. a Gentleman whom we suppose to have been a rela- Itive, and who stood by his side in the doek during the whole of the proceedings. [ WATERFORD, JULY no.

Yesterday and and today, the Naval World has been ex cited to the highest degree of curiosity aid of expecta tion, by the Sailing Matches annonnced to take place, between four of the finest yachts belonging to the Royal Yacht Club, for considerable bets, viz. the Marquis of / nglesey'S Pearl and Liberty, against Mr. Weld's Ar-. ro'w and Julia. Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, the Pearl of 115 tans, and Mr. Weld'sArrow, of 87, started from this roadstead arrylog whatever sail they chose) to go round a vessel moored in swanage Bay, and Oath to Cowes—a distance, to and fro. of about sixty , miles. The wind was about S.S.E. At starting the Arrow took the lead, but when about off Hurst Castle. the wind freshened, and the Pearl beaded her, rounded the 'nark-vessel about two minutes and s half before the Arrow, and in beating back from the Needles 4 Cowes, increased this advantage, so that she finally returned to the starting boat about ten minutes before her opponent, and won the bet of f. re hundred guineas. * . Tbistnorning the match between the smaller vessels of the Mar quis Anglesea and Mr. Weld, namely, the Liberty, of 42, 'mid the Julia of 43 tons, took place. There Was a fresher breeze of *bid, but still blowing from the same points. The interest excited was in no way diminished by the contest of the preceding day, though the wager was not for so large a sum, being only SOO guineas. Both vessels started on the signal, soon of er ten o'clock, to sail over the same Coarse. The Julia took the lead, kept it running down, and also in working back to Cowes; but so equally were those vessels matched, and well managed, that the Julia won this long race by only four minutes. The attendant vessels of these unparalleled in: teresting matches. exceeded in number and variety of mechanical structure, any similar preceding specticle, there not being less than 100 sail of Gentlemen's yachts of the first class vessels, besides othee deicriptions exceeding that number. .

ANOT H E R ACCOUNT; We take the earliest opportunity of making known to the public the result of the Grand .Matches, already celebratedby anticipation, which took place on Friday 'and Saturday; and we think we may safely assert that great as was the degree of curiosity excited among all persons taking the smallest interest in nautical pursuits, and high as the espectadons of all the Amateurs and Screens, both Naval and of the Royal Yacht Club bad besn raised on this occasion, the former was gratified as abundantly, and the latter fulfilletto as great an extent, as themost ardent well-wisher to the growth of naval science eould,possibly have looked for. The emission the 29th (the days having been changed by mote al consent) was between two of the largest and most famous yachts of the Club, the Marquis of. Anglesees Pearl. of 110 tons. and M.
