Na 405.* LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JANUARY 10. NORTH V. TANNER. This was an action for assault_ aid battery, to which the defendant had pleaded the general issue. It appeared that the plaintiff was a broker in Ber mondsey, and the defendant a shipwliglit, occupy ing'adjacent premises. The witnesses on his behalf swore, that after some words, the defendant, a stout young man, seised the plaintiff, an infirm - and old shook him, struck, and kicked him. On thespart of the defendant, witnesses were called to shew, in mitigation of damages, that the plaintiff had used •ery insulting language ; that he had pro voked the defendant to commit the assault w and that• the violence had been greatly exaggerated by the plain tiff's witnesses. Among the witnesses for the defendant, John Usher, a weather-beaten man, but , of very_erect appearance, and striking face, was called ; and, after giving his evi dence in chief, was cross-examined by Mr. ScAnLirer as follows : You were in the BuckinghamshireMilitia?—No; I was in the Oxfordshire. How did you happen to leave it?---I was obliged to leave it for sly good behaviour. (di laugh.) Youi good behaviour! What, do they flog men in that regi ment. for their good behaviour ?—Yes ; I was Bogged for refping to kill an innocent child, which my Colonel ordered me. Where was this ? In Ireland ; the child lay in a bamboo. I was ordered to kill all, I refused. I was flogged and discharged. I call that good behaviour. Re•exaniined by Mr.GAsetet.—Yon have a pension now ?—Yes; and keep my old mother with it. Mr. ScAtmerr, in reply, said no human being could believe that any Colonel ordered this man to kill a child, and that the witness wa.; untitled to no credit. At this moment a cat, which for two days before visited the Bench, appeared in the seat appropriated to the King's Counsel, ran briskly along the desk, and took her station in the seat of the Lord Chief Justice, from which she quickly reti eated amidst the laughter of his I Lordship and of the Court, Mr. SCARLET? said he supposed a cat would soon be an emblem of justice, for she had now three days suc cessively made her way to the Bench. (it was sag- Rested by a Gentleman of the bar, that she was looking for rats!) The Lotto CHIMP JusTicE informed the Jury, that their verdict must, on the pleadings be, for ti►e plaintiff, and that in estimating the amount of .6 d - slamagesahey would probably consider whether any and what degree of provocation led to the assault: Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages ElO. The LORD CHIEF JUSTIDE sat till past seven o'clock, at which time lie had got through all the causes in the paper except three,which were made remanets by consent. ARMSTRONG T. CORRIE. This was an action bequght by the plAintiff, a dealer in turpentine, at Bourdeaux, against the defendant, merchant in London. The defendant had ordered a quantity of turpentine of the plaintiff, the contract for which he did not choose to fulfil, because, as he alleged, the plaintiff had exceeded his order in quantity and price. The plaintiff, on the other hand, contended, that the defendant's refusal to fulfil the contract arose from the turpentine coming to a falling market. To prove these counter-statements, several witnesses were and some intricate calculations were entered into. The Jury, after some consultation, returned a verdict for the defendant on one count, subject to ajeference; and a verdict on the money count for the plaintiff. The Duke of DEVONSHIIkE has at length resolved that the town of Wetherhy is to be rebuilt, and that operations are to commence early in the ensuing spring; the bridge, we, is to be:im proved and widened. A Yorkshireman, named Jack Phillips, has been ap prehended at Bolton, by the constable of Burnley, .for 'stealing twelve horses, in concert with another fellotv who is now in prison. The horses were killed for ear rion-meat, and their hides sold to the tanners. The man ner in which lie was deteted . is rather singular.' The constable was on the look-out for another person; and taking some refreshment at the bar of the' Man and Scithe public-house, when he' heard a person singing in an adjoining room, which he recognized to be the voice of the notorious thief Phillips; he went and patted him oa the shoulder, saying, ‘• Jack, I want you my good fellow." Do you'?" replied the thief': a Then -here's an end to all my acqrsaintance in this world," and im mediately gave himself up. Wednesday morning, about four o'clock, three men with their faces and bands blacked, entered the house of Mrs. Whittingliam, West Country Coffee-htiose, Parlia-1 ment-street, Liverpool, by means of a rope-ladder. Mrs. Whittingham, being alarmed', went down stairs, when she was immediately seized, knocked down, and very ill treated. A knife was held to her breast, with threats to dispatch her, if she gave the alarm. They then forced her into the front parlour, where they rifled her pocket book, andlook away SU They had with them a dark lantern, and had been regaling themselves for some time in the house. On going away, they turned back to carry off two bottles of .spirits. They also took two hams with them, and made their escape before she could give any alarm, though there were three men sleeping in the house. LITERATURE. . • ; 44.• _._ ~_~-~s~r (( s~R`~~ . Cato to Lord Byron on the Innora!ity of his Writings. Bvo. pp. 128. We frankly confess ourselves to be of the number a l those who have a full conviction, that the beauties to be found in some of Lord Byron's compositions, can never compensate for the injuries inflicted on good manners anal gond taste--to say nothing of morality and reli gion—by the gross grovelling sensuality that pervades his writings.—Writing under similar feelings, the au thor. or Cato states his " intention not to examine mi nntely, the grounds upon which the poetry of Lord Byron claims, and has been considered as deserving of its high reputation." His " views in the task imposed uriontimself are of another kind. It is the immorality of his Lordship's - writings that constitute the chief theme - of investigation—the deformity that attaches to him • its , a Christian and as a man." In conformity with his plan he proceeds to spew, !vim a brief review yf the greater part of Lord Byron's productions, that his Lordship's " present lost state of mind has not come suddenly upon him, but that, from t!:e very cradle of his genius (his earlier poems, on which`much of his best fame is founded) he bas forced his Muse into the service of immorality." Of the works adverted to by the author, he observes also " that (ex cepting The Bride of Abydos, 'L lee Prophecy of Dante, and lite Prisoner of C;hillon) a great defect, and poeti cally: considered an inexpiable one, intiependent of more serious objection, runs through the entire body of these poems. It must be evident, (says he) on the • slightest inspection, that a gross say,feness pervades the. libidinous mass. Your impieties and ribaldties ; your sneers, And je.ts, and gibes, are scions of a common stmt..... Out of one quiver you shoot every arrow, and every arrow dipped in the same poison. Indeed, there is such an identity in these ' thick coming' composi tions, that having read one of your poetical incentives to immorality. %se have read all. One soul shines out in Greece, in Spain, in Italy, in whatever beautiful clime yoar heines blast by their presence. Amid a great va riety of personages and incidents, the main wurk is yet 4oilig on every where alike. There is a certain quan tity of loose prophaneness,.the staple commodity; floating mass of offeasive matter which is taken up, in crude and hasty portions, by every character as it passes. When Harold drops off, we find his evil genius revived in the Oiaour ; and when the Giaour expires, it springs from his ashes, and, gathering fresh life, per ft.rms its transmigrations through the Corsair, the Re negade, and the whole crew of worthies issuing from the same prolific You neither surprise us with new portraitures of the human mind, .nor with any varia tions of the old. You neither bring to your poems the aid of such a variety of characters as is to be found in the world ; nor do you attempt to diversify the usual produce of human nature by the invention fill such as ate not. On the contrary, any sentiment infered by one hero will come as appropriately from mouth 'cl another. All of them may change speeches with little or no violation of their mental costume. Their distin guishing qualities may be promiscuously cast into a bag, and it matters not which of them make•the first choice: he is sure to be fitted, whether he fish out his own par, ticular enormities or not." Our limits do not permit us to offer a long extract, het the following may serve as a specimen of Cato's observations: " The next ground you take is a very imprudent one, and far too holy to be defiled by so unholy a Muse. The I!dietu Melodies is an attempt to clothe sacred octry in a more beautiful garb. than its own. We cannot do it. Vida, in his Christiad,' has afforded.no encouragement to such vain hopes. He has made it ueitl)es sublime nor pious, neither a help to the study of Christianity, nos an incitement. It is a poem dull, and heavy, and feeble tkrovshoist. with nothing to e.ompel applause, and hardly anything to insure pa tience. Nor has his more modern follower fared much better. The' Calvary' of Cumberland will be read, as everything coming from such a pen must be ; but no friend to his fame will ever wish it to be brought to the crdeal of severe criticism. Heber's Palestine is si- hotly passing away. The truth is, Holy Scripture, to • the mere English reader, speaks so Well in no language as its own.- What we add to it diminishes its value. What we rake from it has the same effect. What we change 404 we are almost certain to change for the WOW. , its •ernacular elegance is not to be surpassed, . nor from its native bed can we transplant its sublime cemeeptions.

ANDIIIIIV, HOLBORN, v. • Ift LLOWS. This was an to recover a compensation in da mages for an alleged wanton injury, sustained by a man named Higley, in cniTsequence of the fracture of his leg. Mr. ANDREWS, Counsel on the part of the parish, stated the case. The man, since the injury, had be come a pauper, and this action was brought to recover a compensation in damages for the injury he had ors tained by the negligence of the defendant's servants.— The defendant is a livery-stable keeper in Ciray' Inn lane, and on the Ist of March last was, with his servants, breaking a colt in his yard. The man Higley, who is coal-lieaver, and was then in receipt of 30s. per week; happened to be passing at the time ; the plaintiff's ser vants carelessly let go the horse, which tan from the yard, and leaping on the coal-heaver, threw him down, and broke his leg. He was conveyed to the Hospital, where every attention was paid him.—Witnesses were here called, who proved' the injury the poor man bad sustained, and the agony he had endured. Mr. ADOLPIIUS, for the .defendant, contended that the injury was accidentally and unavoidably inflicted. His client had done all in his power for the poor man, and no one could be more sorry than he was ; it hap pened he had since that time advanced. him ten sliil• lings per week, and now, when he could resume his work, he justly considered it time to stop. Finding than the case, the coal•heaver turned round and says, No! l'il have more money." He (Nr. Adolphus) thought the Jury must conceive the money his-client had already advanced was 'a sufficient punishment for the act of Ms servant, and a fair compensation for the injury which the plaintiff had suffered. The Secontiaty addressed' the Jury on the occasion,' who, after retiring for half an hour, gave a vet diet for' the plaintiff,Damages, £3O. THU RITI.L.—Two hours before Murrell mounted that scaffold on ' which he )iticled up his life to the outraged laws "f nature and his country, he wrote the•followir?g letter in a free unshaken hand, and with a finely flourished signature, to the High Sheriff of th: county of Hertford : " Hertford Jail, Friday Morning. " Sin—lt is my request that !dr. Wilson should hove my air-gun, which is at Bo4r-street. Many thanks •for your kindness; this is the last request of your unhappy prisoner, , 1 Ts R. Sutton, Fsq. High Sheriff. " JOHN THURTELL." The Mr. Wilson alluded to is the Governor of Hertford jail; And the sir.gun is that which it was said Thurtelifurchased fur the pur pose of shooting Mr. Barber Beauttiont. The High Sheriff promised that he would attend to this last re quest, and he has kept his word. Ile came to town on Saturday for the purpose, and immedrately waked upon the sitting Magistrate 'at this Office, G. 11. Mossaut.s., Mr. Taylor, the barrister, was also in attendance at his request, by which it would appear that the worthy High Sheriff anticipated some difficulty in what he had undertaken; hut the Magistrate had no sooner read Thurteirs letter than he ordpred the gun to be in stantly 'given up. ` Bishop, the niliees, who happened to be present, informed tis Worship that the gun was in. the hands of Upson, the patrol, who found it at Thurtell's !edgings, but he would take care it was for• warded to Mr. Wilson oti Monday. The High Sheriff' seemed to fear some disappointment; and ob served that he would pay any money for the gun rather than fail in doing what he had promised— " Oh, Sir !" said Bishop, " money is quite out of the question— the gun shall be delivered to Mr. Wilton on Monday moruini, with out fee or reward." It appears, however, that this promise will not be otrried into effect after ail—for the assignees under Thurtell's bankruptcy have since served Upson with a notice not to deliver up the gun, or any other of Thurtell's property, to anybody but themselves. A HILAVir CHARGE.—A young Irishman of gentlemanly exterior, anti, we believe, eery respectable connections, was bro4ht before Lille. HALLS by a Liverpool constable, who had just apprehended him London,itr on suspicion of having stolen 1,3C0 siovettlins. from a hoarding-bne in Liverpool. jt • • " • anwared by the statement of MN-. CasOdy, the proprietni of the hosreing-heuse, that this 'young CentTentatt and a "Jr. John Smith, both recently from Ireland, were 'drowsing as his house, 1 pd they slept together in the same room—in which room was a 'leather pertnianteaa containing 1,300 sovereigns, the property of Mr. Smith. On Monday last the route Gentleman expressed his intentions of proceeding to London at five o'clock the next morning, and booked himself by one of the coaches for that purpose a, k would seem. fiewever, instead of going by the coach in which he watt booked, he went by another Which passed by the door at five o'clook the next morning, and he left the house in such haste that he did not stop to put on his boots, but gut into the coach with one bo - ot in Ms hand and the other on his leg. Some hours after Mr. Smith awoke, and found that his portrivanteau bad been cut open, and the whole ofhis sovereigns taken away. Suspkiowintinediately fell upon the prisoner. Mr. Caeskly and a constable pursued him to London, and took hint into custody just as be was about to set out for the Continent, but they bad found nothing upon hint to confirm their suspicions. The young mash solemnly protested Ms innocence, and implored the Magistrate not to ruin his future prospects in life by detaining him on such a charge. He was just proceeding to Paris, he said, to complete some professional studies, and his detention would not only blast his hopes, but would break the heart of his widowed mother, whom lee ha d left in Ireland, anxiously waiting to hear•of his safe arrival in Paris. Tlte Magistrate told him he was very sorry for him, but he feared it would he necessary for him to meet the charge in Liverpool. Mr. Cassidy persisted in saying that no other person hall access to the room in which the property was deposited, the timetable produced a handbill describing his person and offering £100:for his apprehension, and eventually the Magistrate authorised them to take him back to LiverpooL Hamer A-LA-MOM—A sturdy surly-looking person, who said •his name was Foreman, and ‘, his profession a licens'd trickier," Was brought up front Covent-garden watch-house, charged with sundry disorderly doings in the a-la-mode-beef shop, in Brydges-street, op pfisite Drury-Lane Theatre. According to the evidence of the master of'the shop and his waiter, this "literati- sadder" came in, after the play was over, with .two other persons, and having called for three plates of fislloworsode, they amused themselves with picking out the nice fat lump.% and throwing them at the rest of the company. John, the waiter, re ceived sone of the said scalding hot nice tat lumps slap in his le eye, and the licens'd trickier told him it was all right ; though the poor lad's eyes were none of the best, at the beat of times—in fact, his eyes had long been lashiess, and encircled with bright scarlet, and it was therefore excessively cruel to throw kidding hot beef into either of them. Another of these nice fat Mann was sent dab against a Gentleman's cravat, just in the place where he wore his brooch—to the very great disparagemeat of his dignity ; and ano ther Gentleman was so bespattered with the beef, both fat acid lean, that he was ashamed to be seen by anybody. In short, they kept •up these tricks too long, as the master cook said; for not a Gentle man could come into the room till after two o'clock in the morn ing, without running the risk of having his mouth and eyes bat tered up with beef-a-la-mode ; and at last the master cook founk it necessary to send the licens'd wielder to .the watch-house in his own defence. • The licens'd :tickler in reply, asked the master cook—" Pray didn't I p for everything I called fur ?" K 1 believe you might, replied the master cook. " Very well then I" rejoined the, Healed eickler--and the Magistrates ordered him to find sureties for Ids better behaviour in future. • iVIANSION-HOUSE. • Saturday, Matthew Wrilker, a cannan, was brought before the LORD Ifiavon, charged with having stolen a parcel of unbound books; the property of Messrs. Longman, Hurst,. and Co. at Dow gate Wharf. Ai officer stated, that as he passed along Turnvebeel.lan4, near the wharf, he observed a large parcel in a sort of area, within some low rails, and suspecting that it had been throwethere in order to ,bc taken away at some convenient opportunity, set a watchman within a hall-door to look out for the' customer."
