he rather wished to take off the sharper edge of Mr. Scarlett's observations upon Mr. Hodgson; he thought them too severe. Mr. limos, in support of his rule, still insisted that the malice was a question for the Jury. He had not admitted that there was no malice ; on the con trary, he had put it to the Jury, whether, if any man had said " Mr. Raine is a fraudulent and wicked bar rister,' he should not have an unquestionable right to say that the words were dictated by malice ? He had never charged Mr. Scarlett with express malice, with taking advantage of his station to slander an individual against whom he entertained hostility, but he had insisted that malice was a matter of inference for the Jury. Lord ELLENBOROVOIL—CertainIy the expressions appear to be overcharged ; it may not be prudent or correct generally to mix the attorney with his client, but here it seems that Mr. Hodgson induced a plain tiff to bring an action in which he could not succeed, and though the.words fraudulent and wicked may be stronger than others might have used, yet as ap plied to the promissory note are they not relevant ? and if relevant, are they not within the protection of the law ? _ . . Mr. RAVE added, that the Attorney might have taken an erroneous view of the rights of his client. When he made the motion for the Rule Nisi, he had cited the case of Brooke v. Sir H. Montague, merely to shew that words spoken by a Counsel were action able, because Mr. Baron Wood had said at the As sizes that no action at all of the kind could be main tained. The case from Styles seemed a Monstrous ahsurdity : a Counsel was to be excused, because it will be contended, that the words are spoken pursu ant to his client's instructions. If the party injured then proceeded against the Attorney, he replied by chewing that the words were not in the instructions he had given to Counsel ; so that a man might be *biped in the most public manner without a remedy. In opposition to it, he referred their Lordships again to the case of Brooke v. Sir H. Montague, decided when Popham was Judge, and Yelverton and Coke Counsel. _ _ Lord ELLENBOROUGH.--A certain latitude must be allovied, otherwise it would be impossible for Counsel to discuss matters at Nisi Prism; as long as he bona Pe fulfils the duty cast upon him, even though •he overstep the strict line, he shall not be held to be malicious: it may work some disadvan tage to a party now and then, but that is an evil arising out of a greater benefit. Mr. RAIN! concluded by observing that the plain tiff could have given evidence to shew that there was, no truth in Mr. Scarlett's statement. Mr. RICHARDSON, on the same side, argued that at least the nonsuit was premature : it had been con tended on their part that the words were irrelevant, and consequently the admission spoken of could not have been made unless the Counsel were willing to admit themselves out of Court. The facts detailed to-day on the other side ought to have appeared in , evidence at the trial, if at all, to rebut the inference of malice. _ _ Lord Et.z.zNnoaoticn.—The admission amounted to this ; that the words applied to the conduct of the plaintiff in another cause, and the learned Judge pro ceeded on an assumed admission of the relevancy, which would have been evident had-the facts stated been gone into. Mr. RICHARDSON added, that there could be no pretence for saying that the protection of a Counsel was similar to..a parliamentary privilege. Lord Ettxxsonouoff.—The Learned Baron was there certainly wrong, but that does not appear upon the report ; the one bears not the least analogy to the other. The Court consulted for some time, after which Lord ELLENBOROUGII said, the law privileges many communications which otherwise might be consi dered calumnious, and the subjects of actions ; in those regarding the characters of servants, it is ne cessary, for the convenience of mankind, that there should be a f-ee disclosure : and if it be made bona Ale, and without express malice, without a design to state what is untrue and unprovoked, the law pro tects it from being the subject of an action. So in the case of Counsel, who appointed by the parties as better able to conduct their causes : the client con signs his interests to a Counsel, who only speaks from information, and he is privileged when commenting upon the evidence or instruments produced in the course of the trial. It appears that the plaintiff was not only the attorney in the cause, but had been con nected with previous transactions, and in the con coction and drawing of a promissory note, so that he must have been cognizant of the merits before he went into Court ; and as it turned out on the trial, as be well knew it must, that the demand had been sa tisfied, his client of course was defeated. In com menting upon the circumstances, the Learned Coun sel, who is here the defendant, said that the plaintiff was a fraudulent and wicked attorney ; he had a right to animadvert upon his conduct, and he could not do so without noticing him as the instrument in the formation of the promissory note which was the chief fcround of the nonsuit—he did not therefore take him at random, or draw his name in unneces sarily. I should say that the language is strongly charged, for it accuses Mr. Hodgson of a fraud be tween man and man, and, with wickedness in foro dirino. This was perhaps not displaying that for bearance which it might be prudent to adupt ; but yet I cannot say that the accusation does not arise out of the subject matter of the case. If the attorney, knowingly, placed the parties in a situation where they must undoubtedly be sufferers without any be nefit, it sloes seem to give a colour to the charge of being fraudulent and wicked—l cannot say that there is no reasonable or probable cause, for a Counsel so to state in the exercise of his duty of com menting. It may be urged, that the relevancy of the accusation appears here, and not at the trial, and that it is in a manner ex post facto ; but an admission was made at the assizes which, though not strictly conceding the relevancy, yet coupled with the ac tual facts now disclosed , seems t o warran t th e con clusion at which the Learned Baron arrived, and was equivalent in some sort to an actual disclosure o f the facts. It appears to me that th e wor d s spo k en were uttered in the cause, and relevant to the cause, and, consequently, that the action is not maintainable. Mr. Justice BAYLEY saw no objectio n to adopting i the position laid down n Brooke v. Sir H. Montague, that the privilege of a Counsel extends to all things said pertinent to the matter in issue. He admitted that the expressions were harsh, but thought that they came within the privilege. Mr. Justice ABBOTT concurred ; words used in the course of a judical inquiry, relevant and pertinent to the matter in issue, are not actionable, unless it ap pear that the Counsel availed himself of his situation to gratify personal malice previously entertained against the person slandered. Justice could not be properly administered, if on every occasion Counsel were to be questioned for the strength of an expres sion employed in the fair conduct of a cause. Here the words were relevant and pertinent ; and if a new trial were granted, the result would and ought to be the same as it had been. Mr. Justice HOLSIOYD observed, that the slande rous words only expressed the opinion of an indivi dual to, the Jury, who were subsequently to decide upon the merits, and whether the Counsel had spoken truly or untruly. A less latitude ought to be allowed to Counsel than to parties, on account of their supe rior knowledge and cooler temperament ; but they were not liable to action, unless it clearly appeared that the slander had no relation to the cause. He referred to 1 Hawk. c. 73. s. 8, 1 Rolls. Abr. 87. pl. 4, 1 Saund. 132, and to 4 Coke, 14 b. in order to shew that parties were not liable for words in the course of a judicial proceeding, unless express malice were established. He thought the present action not maintainable, for the reasons stated by the rest of the Court.— Rule for setting aside the nensuit discharged. OLD BAILEY, JANUARY 22. Joseph Robinson stood indicted for stealing one silver tattle spoon, the property of John Harris, stew ard to the Vernlam Club. The particulars of the case have been before the public in detail. The prisoner, who is 67 years of age, and of respectable appearance, was in the habit of going to the Verulam Club-house, in Lincoln's-inn fields and making inquiries for Mr. Serjeant Best, and ;after he was gone spoons had been frequently missing. On his last inquiry, however, he was de tained, and upon his person were found several du plicates, one of which applied to the spoon in ques tion. These facts were proved in evidence, and the prisoner did not call any witnesses to speak to his former character, but upon being called upon for his defence, he addressed the Court nearly in the fol lowing terms :—" My Lord, and Gentlemen of the Jury—Circumstances appear so strong against me, that I feel it quite impossible to invalidate the charge I am an old man, and in my younger days I main tained a most reputable character. At one time I was in circumstances of ease and happiness, but by losses in business am reduced to what you now see me. Gentlemen, I am not a thief from pflinciple but none .of us know what we may be driven to do through distress and hunger. Let him that thinks he standeth, take heed that he falleth not.' Gentle mea, I shudder when I think of what I have done ; I confess it with shame, but I was compelled to do it by want and misery. I throw myself upon the mercy of the Court. The ALMIGHTY is never more pleased than when we imitate his example, by deal ing mercifully to our fellow creatures." - While he thus addressed the Court, his tears often interrupted him. The Common SERJZANT recapitulated the evi-' derive to the Jury, and they found the prisoner— Guilty ; but strongly recommended him to ,mercy, on account of age and his reduced circumstances. The Cosmos Sztrawer stated to the Jury, that he feared his story was very like his inquiry after Mr. Serjeant Best, as it was not his first appearance at that bar for a similar offence. One of the Marshal men of the City stated, that he had known the priso ner for nearly twenty years. At one time he was a man of respectability, and held a high situation in the house of Sir James Lubbock and Co. that his name was not Robinson, but Brotherton ; that he was the man accused of stealing the clock from the House of Commons ; and that he had been repeatedly accused of stealing spoons from Taverns, Ste. The COMMON SREJIANT observed, he was not en titled to the recommendation of the Jury, but should be banished for seven years. Rose O'Hara, Margaret Ilumphrys, and Hannah Brian, were indicted capitally, for assaulting James Redman, on the King's - highway, and forcibly taking ' from his person 15s. in money, his property. The RECORDER summed up, and the Jury found all the prisoners Guilty—Death. Thomas Fuller and James Turner were both found Guilty of stealing two bushels of coals upon the Grand Junction Canal, the property of Joseph Tap land. After the verdict had been recorded, the pro secutor begged to recommend the prisoners to mercy, stating as a reason, that he believed it to be their first offence--The prosecutor then requested the Court would hear a statement of rather an ei traordinary nature. He proceeded to state, that the last trial was expected to have come on last Mon day, and he attended in the yard with his witnesses. while they were there two persons, who stated them selves to be constables, came to his principal wit,. ness, and said, they had a warrant against him for stealing hay, and they dragged him off to Mary-la- Bonne watch-house. They then returned, and tap ping the complainant on the shoulder said—" We want you—you are charged with receiving the hay which was stolen by the per son taken to the watch house, and you must g FI before a Magistrate."— Complainant asked thens to chew their authority for so arresting him. One of them then produced a staff. Not, however, considering this a sufficient au thority for depriving him of his liberty, he came to the Court, to ascertain from Mr. Arabin, if the ar rest was legal ; but who not happening to be in Court, the officers took him to a public house oppo site the Court, and detained him there while they drank a pot of beer,. He entreated them to permit him to watch the progress of the trial, but they refu sed, and took him off towards Mary-la-Bonne, but in going down Snow-hill, being stin in their custody, he met a friend named Williams, and supposing that he was better acquainted with such matters than he was, he told him the circumstance of the arrest, and his friend Mr. Williams demanded the production of the authority under which they acted. They refused, and one of them pushed him back, upon which Mr. Williams knocked him through a carpet warehouse window, and broke twelve shillings worth of glass, which complainant.paid for. The other officer then went away, and the complainant eras permitted to re turn to the Court. The RECORDER asked hint if he knew the parties ?' The complainant replied, that one of them was a man named Colliw. Mr. AiAB►N It is not Collins, the City officerr Complainant," No, I believe they are constables of Mary-la-Bonne parish." The RECORDER observed, that the Grand Jury had broken up, but he should recommend the complai nant to indict them for an assault at the next Ses sions, or to make the complaint immediately before one of the City Magistrates, and obtain a warrant against them. This recommendation was received with thanks by the complainant, who went off in stantly to Guildhall to obtain a warrant GUlLDHALL.—Yesterday, while Alderman Sir W. ILatatirox was transacting the usual routine of busi-1 nes, at this Office, a decent looking man pressed forward, and requested permission to speak to the Magistrate.,—What is your business ? said an officer. Stranger—airawing his hand across kis eyes)—" A previous tear, and I'll begin. The object of my application is to request that you will immediately issue a special warrant or summons, ) against the Legislature of this Kingdom, to appear before you, to answer such matters and things, as I, Join. ALLANN shall exhibit against the Members thereof. Mr. Paine—" I suppose you wish the Legislature to provide for you ?" Mr. A lland—" Exactly so. It is their bounden duty to pro vide for every British subject who is distressed, and as I happen to be one of that class, I hope the worthy Gentleman in the chair will exert his magisterial authority to procure me redress for my wrong q" Sir Leighton.—" I should like to be made further ac quainted with the nature and object of your application before I proceed." Mr. Alland--“ t I have done the State sane service, and trey know it; but 'No more of that, Hal, if you love me !' KY bum set. In short, my meritorious acts are likely to go unre warded, unless you immediately institute proceedings against our House of Commons." Sir W. Leighton—" What particular, .services have you ren dered the country, that you consider yourself entitled to reward and protection ?" Mr. Alland—" Oh, good. Magistrate, ' I could a tale unfold, would make thy young hair stand erect like the quills on the back of the affrighted porcupine '—but never mind that—can you comply with my demand ?" Sir W. Leighton—" I fear not—you had better apply in ano ther qearter." Mr. Alland—" And is there then no remedy—no punishment for ingratitude, that foulest of sins Mr. Paine—" There is a punishment, but not here ; this is the wrong place." Mr. Alland—" Then I am misinformed, and indeed I am no lawyer. Harmony is snore to my taste, and ' bright Apollo's lute, strung with his hair.' You know the Rev. Mr. Blomberg, Sir? Ile once gave me a very excellent book of inusic, in which there were some most delicious airs. I was offered SOU a year at the Opera, Sir ; in proof of which, I will give you a few stanzas now, if it is not contrary to Police etiquette." Sir W. Leighton—" Perhaps your talent in that way might be tamed to better account elsewhere." Mr. Alland.—" Ay, there's the rub : the very thing I com plain of is the want of attention evinced by our rulers to the me rits of the subject. I assure you I can sing delightfully, and the offer of as engagement at the Opera House I rejected with dis dain, as an insult to my talent. " Mr. Paine—" The Magistrate cannot mar' you:* . _ Mr. AUand—" Then valiat am I to do?--' Music bath charms to Each, Out not to arrest the hand of poverty." He then bowed and withdrew, singing with much taste and execution the_ first stanza of " GOD sate the King r ITsion-Hnu..—Yesterday, H. Fil'd was charged by Mr. J.

Mr. Hunt stated, that yesterday morning, about nine o'clock, he was walking along the road near Waterloo Bridge, and saw the prisoner and seven or eight persons playing with cups and balls. The prisoner offered to bet any sum that there was a ball under each of the three cups.

Limrsticx, JAN. 14.—Wednesday se'nnight a Spe cial Sessions, under the Insurrection Act, was held in Cashel, before-Serjeant Jean, and a Bench of Magi strates, when the following persons were convicted: William Kennelly, for being idle and disorderly, and absent from his house on the night of the I filth of Npvember last—to be transported for seven yeah. This was one of the robbers at Mr. Grubb's house. Michael Maher, for Leing idle and disorderly, and out of his house at improper hours—to be transported for seven years.— Maher was the principal of a gang who had attacked and rescued a prisoner from the Police, some time since. Laurence and James Kennedy, for being idle and disorderly, and absent from their houses at a late hour—to be transported for seven years. Thomas Mason and John Stapleton, for being the ringleaders of a tumultuous assemblage of persons on the 2d of December— to be transported. John Shanahan, for being idle and disorderly, and for bruta lity to a woman whom be assaulted—to be transported. An attempt was made a few days back, by a of desperate ruffians, to cut open the iron cages of the menagerie of wild beasts, now exhibiting in Cashel, in which are confined a lion and a tiger, with the mis chievous view of letting them loose. By the timely interference of the Police, this diabolical plan wns pre. vented, and five of the ruffians are in custody.
