AUGUST e• Skphea Clara* was ißditted for feloniously sitting. en fire two hay-ricks, the property of George Randall, at Heythot, ii the night of the 13th July.—a Vet Gar,- Sarah Litek, a married wonsau, was indicted for the wilful murder of ha male infant child, at Yulbotoogh, on the 14th llay last. On the day mentioned in the indictment, the prisoner became a mother, iu a fieid near Billinghurst. after having left a house is Pulborough, where she had token lodgings. On retuning to her lodgings, the landtady observing the alteration in her appearance, acid that she was extremely ill, asked her what had become of her child. At first she. denied that she had had any child, but, upon being,pressed more homely, she said that, in getting over a stile, the pains of parturition came on, and that the infant having fallen on the ground, it was killed on the spot, and she had. buried it in a ditch. In consequence of her description of the place, the child was afterwards found, covered up in a ditch with mud. The child's head was fractured, and some of the mud appeared to have found its way into the windpipe, as far as the cells of the lungs. The surgeons examined—Gave it as their opinion that the child's death might have been occasioned in the manner stated by-the mother, and that supposing the child to be apparently dead from the fall, it might have sufficient life to imbibe by convulsive.respiration the liqrsid mud found in• the windpipe and lungs.

Mr. Justice Pnan,whe presided in the Cs iminal in his address to the Grand Jury. congratulated them on the appearance of the calendar. wlikh, with one mop. tion, contained no cases of a very heavy nature. The case of Sir Willoughby Dixie, who had been committed upon a charge of shooting at two persons, called for the serious attention of the Jhry. Such eases were pro vided for by two statutes: one- was that commonly called the Black Act; the other was known by the name of• Lord Ellenborough's Act. These statutes provided (or four cases—viz. shooting with an intent to murder, to do some bodily harm, and disable, or to prevent. the legal apprehension of an offender. If anyone of these cases should appear to be made out upon the evidence brought before the Grand Jury, the prisoner must be put upon his trial. His Lordship then enlarged upon the mischief which, according to his notions, might be done to the ends of justice by the publication of evidence in any cases before trial. He afterwards went on to tell the Grand Jury, that it was probable Sir Willoughby Dixie would be indicted under Lord Ellenborough's Act, and recommended them, if they found any diffi cagy in the case, to find the bill, and to leave it to the Jury hereafter to be sworn for the trial of the cause to investigate the facts. If upon that trial he should be of opinion that the crime alleged against the prisoner. would, if committed, have amounted only , to man slaughter, he should, under the statutes he had quoted to them, direct his acquittal ; if, on the other hand, the circumstances of the case should not induce any such conclusion, it would be for the Jury to say-whether any and which of the four intentions be hadpointed. out had influenced the prisoner's conduct. ale WILLIUGHIST WOOLSTOII DIMS.

The prisoners had been tried at the Lent Assizes, but . ii doubt having arisen on theist dictmenr,. their judgments had been. respited, The Judge informed them that the objections taken on the; for riser occasion had been held valid, and they were now again indicted on a similar charge. John Arnold, who had been included in the fortner in Jictment. had been discharged, it appearing that he was the dupe rather than the accomplice of the prisoners. Mr. BALGUY, with whom was ?dr..

Some of these are only pas dally going, or, at least, have' additions built to them, which ate not jet working. Before the beginning of this year, there were at least Viirty in full operation. The average number of looms in. each amoants to. about 185.

The grea er part of these looms are employed in the manulactute of eleven dogs. cambrits or tweels, though s.dsme of tt.em, Mr. Charles Todd's for instance, work, as fine as fourteen dzgs.

An. eleven deg. is welled twelve, and a fourteen deg. sixteen shots on. the.glass.
