Mr. Justice' Pnat..—LGeinleinen of the Jury, there O ng no evidence offered'"agahist Wm. Probert, it is yolardrity nor tti find him Not Guilty. •- The Jeri accordingly returned a verdict of No! Vviity in favour of Wm. Probert, and the prisoner was liberated accordingly—bowed to the Court and the Jury, end retired from the Dock. The Court then promulgated an order that all the Witnesses for the prosecution should withdraw from the Court. . • Mr. GVRWIT then rose' to address the Jury, the case baring been opened by Mr. Brodrick.—The Learned Counsel said he !lid now to Oil the attention of the' Jury to a case of the greatest importance—to try the •prisoners on a charge of the greatest magnitude. It was one of the mast important circumstances to the Public, that crime should be punished ; but it was equally important, that the innocent should not suffer Frith or for the guilty. To gttard against such a result, the la* of England had been most..careful, and with that - vie* it was, that the inquiry before a Coroner's Jury, that before a Grand Jury, and finally that before sucha Jury as he was now addressing, were - cOnsidered as neces;try before a man could be found guilty. • The prisoners at the bar 'were charged with . 1111 offence - of the greatest magnitude. One was charged as the prin cipal and the Other as an accessary in the commission of murder. He would not desire the Jury to find a ver dict of guilty in such a case but on the most satisfac tory evidence; but there should be evidence .sufficient to satisfy the minds of jhe Jttry of the guilt_ of the nri- Soners; they would not hesitate to ited vierdict of Guilty against theni. as the crime, if proud; lent cue of the most atrocious winch hid ever coast Ifo* 41:Jury , It was the murder-of an onsusedetior thlittelatifintial friend and acquaintance, and the sriuteatuar softe. tad a as was generally the , "cuse 'wish ill&litaliete hour of darkness, and it a titni'irhait . tfsie.pletrpistrators of it supposed there was do' Isiirpe trate,Oe act, to 014 roeslrv. t l ***4 "OA .4 2 * * O O l . only .{save evidence. laid :bUfare - and on-eachiaiireaemeasure most the prOof of guitt,or innocence rest ; but it was 4osnetitnes necessary to have recourse to Other kinds of evideince, and amongst . the rest, to that of the accompliewia a lesser degree, asul - to such evidence the attention °tale Jury wo,uld,thiS day be called in the staaement of Wat: Probert, one of the persons originally inc.ludid indiCinsent; but in favour of whom the Jury had jest found -a...ver dict of acquittal. To the e.eiclince.ial dist indiiicloal the Jury would of course look with iconsiderable cau tion. Having said thus much be Wistrld pry:o6lo'S* the fact' of the case. TheLeareed Contra then pro. ceeded to state who the parties. wefe, and %heir several occupations, and here the Jury would recollect that they were not called on to consider sthethet the cha racter:of the deceased was good or bad, but whether a murder had been committed. The Learned Gentleman meted into a detail of the particulars belonging to Gill's-03 Cottage, and the family of Probert, resident there, on the 24th of October last, on which day the murder of Mr. Weare took place. He entered into a history of the conduct of Tbortell and Hunt for several days previous to the:murder,and detailed it in-the same terms as those contained in the evidence already before the Public she narrated the intimacy betteeen the parties row charged with murder, and Weare, and their con nexion with Rexworthy; the visit of Weare to Rex worthy previous to going into Hertfordshire, as he said, to Proberes . tht.hitiog of the chaise by Hunt; the purchase of the pistols, sack, spade, &c. by that indivi dual, and the several cirentnitinces which Otcurted be tween the time of Vireare's;Calling on- Rexworthy and e)c arrival 'ef. Hunt'andThintill at PrcNert'S . Cottage ; . the several con - versations . whieh passed at Probert's cot tage between the par - art, It trcwld front these circum ,tances be apparent,. that ea the day in . which Weirs and Thurtell were suppOsed to have left London toge ther, and were in fact seen together on tht road leading towards Gill's-hill, Martell did arrive at Probert's cottage about nine o'clock in the evening, and that he hid in the chaise a dotible-barrel gun, a back gammon board, and several other articles, the property ^f the deceased. He should afterwards shew the arri- val of hunt at Probert's cottage, who. previous to that time bad been a stranger there—he should spew them going out together, under pretence of calling on a person named Nichols—their return with the body of a man tied up a sack, which body was thrown into a, pond. Ala would also prove Thurtell's being busily em ployed in The stable wiping off, with a sponge and watery several stains of blood which were risible of various parts of his clothe. He shoLld also chv.v, at a subsequent period of the evening, a gold chain produced and given to Mrs.Probert; and also, that after. Mrs. trohert had retired to rest, her auspi. tions having been excited by the refusal of her guests to go to bed, she, on looking out at her chamber utr.dow, observed her husband and the others dragging a body along the ground, from the neighbourhood of a P"r+d; he would also proceed to shew Thuriell arid Hunt slaching for . something in the hedge, in IA al the spot %hue the murder was supposed to have Lvo cum niitted ; and when observed by some labourers, 6.3 'ked ichm shy were about. ?button said, they ' _ ~•c'.., .fir :a _ • had been nearly capsize 4. in the lane tbe.night before,' and hadlost some things out of the gig; after they were gone the labourers went in search, and near the spot found a pistol, the fellow to that afterwards found on Thurtell, and which had also been purchased by Hunt, and also a knife, the handle and blade of which was co vered with blood.—We shall give further proceedings on the receipt of our expresses,'which will artive every hour up to the latest period. • Tlil CASE OF CONNOLLY. • The following case, furnished by a Correspondent, seems a parallel to a late unfortunate occurrence: coop's CASE.—CRO. CAR. 537. Conk was indicted for the murder of Marshall. Upon , his arraignment, pleading Not Guilty, it was found that Marshall was a bailiff to the Sheriff of -, and had several warrants upon several capiss ad satisfaciend. against the said Cook and his father, directed unto him and other bailiffs; and that they, by virtue thereof, en tered into the said Cook's stable and outhouse, and hid themselves there all night: and at eight of the clock next morning, came to Cook's dwelling-house, a called upon him to open his doors and suffer them to enter, because they had such warrants upon such writs, at the suit of such persons, to arrest him, and willed him to obey them. But the said Cbok commanded them to depart, telling them that they-should not enter, and thereupon they brake a window, and afterwards came unto the door of the said house, and offered to force that open, and brake one of the hinges thereof.;-- Whereupon thc said Cook discharged his musquet at the said Marshall, and stroke him, of which stroke the day following he died. And whether upon all this 'matter, heti guilty of murder or of manslaughter, was the doubt.. And it was now argued by Rolls, for Cook, ,that was : Rot- murder; fur although a bailiff were slaisa, yet at, was by_ his own procurement, in doing an lunlanfuract,' vi.On breaking the window and door; andnuempiinitneiterned serve process, which is lass lawful for a periona'Sfirtt; finless an the King's case: and for that puttoss, he .cited Ce. lib. 5. fol, 91.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. - • COURT OF. KINOIS BIL*CH, DECEMBER 5. dintlllol v. WRITE. , •cr . mr. k,AMPRIZI. Opened the pleadings, and stated the Vast *rani absence oiMr. likkaaustz. The plaindif is a respectable merchant in London, who having imported a quantity of whiskey (tom Canada, employed the de fend.ant as his broker, to sell the same. This action was for negligence; the defendant •on a former trial hiving deposed that he did not think he had authority from Coates to make out the sale to him, by which the plaintiff lost his verdict against Coates; and this _action, therefore, was to recover, not only the &- Tags but the costs of the action brought against Coates. On the evidence being gone through, in which no noSelty of importance occurred, The LoRD CRUM JUSTICE observed, that this having been the first importation of Canadian whiskey, there could be - no established usage—therefore it was incum bent on the deferitrint to have set forth the terms the more explicitly in the contract. Exclusive of the loss on the re-sale, the costs were 1921. The less on the re sale 12,206 gallons. His Lordship thought this question was one of much.importance to the .City of London, whether a broker shall make a contract other than that which shall bind the parties to it ; and afterwards him self prove he was not authorized by one party to make the Contract in such terms as stated. The Jury would say, without any reflection being implied as affecting the integrity of the defendant, whether he did not in the hurry of business, make this contract for Mr. O'Brien, the plaintiff, in such a negligent manner, as to have made himself liable for the damage sustained by his principal? - Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 3561. 7s. 10d. and costs. MESSRS. LATHAM AND CO. V. MESSRS. nUTLEY AND Co The plaintiffs are bankers at Dover, and the defen dants proprietors of the Dover Union waggon. The defendants were in the habit of bringing up to town and taking down to Dover, parcel! of the plaintiffs' notes weekly, for which they received one guinea per week. They had an iron chest fixed in the front of the waggon for .this special purpose. On the 16th of May, 1800, Messrs. Hoare, Barnet, and Co. the town correspon dents and bankers of Messrs Latham, sent a paper parcel containing 1,3401. of paid notes belonging to the latter, to the office of Merrs. Butley, to be forwarded, as usual, by their waggon to Dover. The parcel, was deposited in a desk in the office, by the clerk. The office opened to the yard, and it appeared that the clerk having gone out for a few minutes, he found on his return that the desk was broken open and the parcel- taken aivay. This action was btought to recover the arnounr; 'upon the ground that although the defendants did not undertake against fire and robbery by superior force, yet that they mutt be considered in the light of insurers, on account of their having entered into a contract-to deliver . the parcels both up and down for the consideration of one , guinea per week. It was-also questionable, whether the robbery had been committed by superior force, or by any force At all, as the police-offiter who esamined,the rdesk after the robbery saw. no marks of . violeqcp pion it.' After going through a patt of the evidence far the plaintiffs, which was, extremely. unconnected . end can• fused in consequence of the death of the principal, wit ness, who entered the notes-before they were tear to Messrs. Butleys'office, s verdict was taken for the plain . tiffs by consent. 111 MN t _., ~.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE. Last night a new dramatic piece, in four lets, was produced at this Theatre, entitled Einiltasethr or, The Days of Goat Queen Bess, founded on the Novel of that name, much of the text of 'which is retained In the Drama. Poetical justice has been more strictly administered' in the Drama than in the original, Jsy the substitution of Varney for the Countess of Leicester in the catastrophe. Among the most striking scenes is that in which the Queen iss• sists on the reconciliation between Leicester and Sussex. Mrs. aunts who performed the character of Elizabeth, sustained it with con. siderable power, and never seemed to forget the attachment of the virgin Queen to prerogative. Her whole deportment indicated, at least, the authcrity which belongsto a crowned head. Another very effective scene, was that In which A n thony Foster (Mr. Taney) presents the poisoned cup to the Countess of . 1-4 c-ester (M Weer.) His first advance, betraying all the tremulous of spilt, was finely contrasted by the calm attention of the Countess, who quickly suspected his design, and the interposition of his `datighter June (Miss S. Boom), who offered to drink, on the Rai' rural conclusion, that what was good for her mistress could not be injurious to her, completed the interest. The father snatched the cup,. dashed it to the ground, and confessed Ids guilt. The of the Countess subsequently prepared another situation of Imre:del interest, which was the meeting with her Lord at Kenilworth, after the artifice of Varru;y had succeeded in representing her as his wife. Mr. War.tamt ' who performed the -kiwi of Leicester, ac quitted himself with dignity; "and 'Mr. Ancuza, in -litiehasnt Varney, appeared to at least es much advantage as• he bad ever done before. Mr. Ilmarr bad a character which gave hint but little to do, yet that litileledid with his usual vivacity and success. He sung a few comic soap ; 'they were well received. The prin cipal character is certainly that of Queen Elizabeth, whose domi neering spirit absorbed the' interest in all the scenel 'in which the appears. Mrs. Wise, knwever, imparted considerable pathos to the sufferings of the unhippy dungen. Mr. PENLEY was effec tive in Tressilian, and Ilk. Gerrie, as Nicholas. 131ount, strutted about in his mock finery to the amusement of the beho:ders. After the dramatic part of the pieee concluded, and the interest was at an end, the curtain rose tiPori — the'pegotor which was certainly splendid, but did not add to thrArarawier.oethe piece, or the gra tification of the audience. The piece was, however, u!tagether solry sucCesiful, and was announced Iclr tifitititin this e%euipg. The House was very full. .1 4 " • • . - . ~ THE A, Detach*rote, consisting of twerssy-fuur'Olßeiti antito men, 'belonging to the llthr Light Dragoon. and Itith Lancers ; acid to the 13th, 14th, 36th, 44th, 59t11. and 87th He l pmeets .if 1:..)ot, 'will embark is the course of the week, on board the li-vsvickeliirp and I/ochess of AthoU East Indiamen ' fir Bengal .
