By these we are informed that his Mainty's brig ALACRITY was to leave that port, and cnnv9y to 3lalta such vessels as were bound to that island.. Tile opening of the Lisbon ports for wheat had occasioned a }peat stir in Gibraltar, and large quantities were pre paring for shipment, when the subsequent accounts from the Portuguese capital stated that the ports had again been closed, on account of the immense quantity of 'rain which had been poured into them from Vigo, and w:lith was sufficient in one week to render the further importation unnecessary. By these accounts we learn - that the Government of Malta had allowed vessels bound to the westward to sail without convoy. No .mention is made of Algerine cruisers in that quarter. A considerable sensation has been excited amongst 'the importers, merchants, and dealers interested in rum, .at Liverpool, horn its having been ascertained, that the Lt rd; of hi. Nlaksty's Treasury had, in their minute of !the Si instant, excluded the whole of the rum imported pi or to the Ist March, amounting to about 40,000 pancheons, from the relief granted to subsequent im portations, namely, exemption from payment of duty on the wastage and evaporation in strength whilst under the King's locks. A meeting of the West India Asso ciation took place on Friday, when it was resolved, that a memorial upon the subject should be immediately transmitted to their Lordships; and on Saturday another memorial upon the same subject was adopted by that 'body, arid, being most respectably and numerously signed, forwarded on Tuesday to the Lords of his Ma jesty's Treasury. The memorial prays that their Lord ships will'allow all rums in bond to be placed in the same situation as those imported after the Ist ult. Tuesday morning, about three o'clock, the inhabi tants of Derby were thrown into great terror and alai m by the discovery that the Shot Tower of Messrs. Cox and I'oyser was on fire. The Tower is one hundred and fifty feet in height, divided into seven stories by floors or stages, with a circular opening in the centre from the top to bottom for the manufacture of the shut, a spiral stone staircase leading to the top, where the lead is nicked and the shot cast. The work men had been engaged in the manufactory the preced ing evening, and the file is supposed to have been occa sioned by the caster having incautiously left some wood too near the furnace, in consequence of which it was communicated to the floor. The burning fragments falling down, conveyed the mischief to the stories below, and it descended with so much rapidity, that notwith standing the active and unremitting exertions used to stop its progres-, five of the floors were consumed be fore it could be overpowered. The weighty apparatus and machinery used in the manufacture of the shot and the winding up of the lead, de.cended at intervals with great violence, breaking in their course the massy, and partly consumed beams of the building, and forcing many of the stone steps from the wall, and, in conse quence, the two lower floors were completely broken down and destroyed. Yesterday several Licensed Victuallers and others in terested in the property of public-houses, met at the Freemasons Tavern, in pursuance of an advertisement, signed by Messrs. WILLIAMS and GODDARD, solicitors, and calling a Meeting, for the purpose of considering the measures now before Parliament for legalising the sale of beer by retail by persons who are not licensed by Magistrates. The Meeting was appointed for two o'clock, but it was nearly three o'clock before there were twenty persons in the room. Mr. WILLIAMS then addressed the Meeting, and suggested the propriety of adjourning until a more full attendance could be pro , clued. After Mr. Wiwasis had made a speech, and had been followed by a Mr. Sat.'', it was resolved that the Meeting should adjourn. Mr. SELF then hinted that the interference of Gentlemen of the Law was not de sirable at any future Meeting.

HOLDER V. COLLETT. I Mr. TUESSIGER stated, that the plaintiff in this action sought to recover damages for criminal conversation• had by the defendant with Ifis wife. Mr. SCARLETT said, it was his duty to open the pain ful circumstances under which the plaintiff's case was brought before them. He was in partnership with Mr. Shepherd, in the iron trade, which was carried on in Union•street, Borough, where he resided. About thir teen years age, he married the Lady who was his pre sent wife; she brought him no fortune, but great per. sonal beauty, and was the mother of four children. They lived together in great harmony and domestic comfort until the unfortunate time when Mrs. Holmer became acquainted with the defendant. He was a hop-factor of very considerable fortune—a man at once of business and of pleasure, and who, as the sequel of this cause would shew, had no repugnance to enjoy his pleasures at the expense of his neighbours. Mr. Hairner was com pelled by his business to take frequent journies horn home ; but on those occasions he was accustomed to re- ceive letters from his wife, expressive of her affections, some of which he read, as furnishing unanswerable proofs of the happy terms on which they lived. Mr. Collett, who kept several horses, occupied stables near to those rented by Mr. Holmer, and had an opportunity of knowing when he would be absent from home. To wards the close of the year 1822, she was walking with her children and nursery-maid, holding one child in one hand while the servant held the other. At this moment, Mr. Collett rode by: struck by the appearance of Mrs.Holmer, he rode by again to look at her, and traced her home.— There he obtained admittance under a fictitious name, the name of Dundas ; and though his appearance under that name, when he was known to bear another, excited suspicion among the servants, yet none of them were then able to solve the mystery. He repeated his visits, always in Mr. Holmer's absence, and circumstances oc curred which would appear in evidence, and vk hich would satisfy them beyond all doubt that the criminal intercourse was completed. Mr. Holmer observed an alteration in the conduct of his wife; she became less gentle to him, and less tender to her children ; until, at last, he was induced to make inquiries, the result of which convinced him that he had sustained the most serious and irreparable injury. As the claim of the plaintiff to a verdict would be established beyond all doubt, the single question to the Jury would be the amount of damages. There WAS one topic, which lay, indeed, on the surface, and which his Learned Friend the Attorney-General would doubtless urge with all his power,-e-that here there was no vestige of previous f. iendship between the parties,—that no violation of confidence aggravated the violation of the plaintiff's bed,—that no hospitality was abused, and no trust broken. This was true ; bUt there was another view of the case in which the defendant's conduct might be viewed, and in which it would appear stained with no common guilt. It would sometimes happen, where time and opportunity concurred—where the friend of the husband was - allowed daily to see and converse with the wife—that passion would glide in unawares, and that parties, from the frailty of human nature, might fall under temptation entitling them to pity : but what excuse was to be made for a delibera:e systematic man of pleasure, who prowled about, watching for his prey —who, possessing all the means of gratifying irregular passion without breaking in on the happiness of stran gers, yet chose wantonly to invade it ; and whose case, though stripped of the colouring of ingratitude, and vio lation of friendship, had yet incidents, perhaps, which rendered it even more odious? What palliation was there for a man, who, without any intermixture of sen timent or generous feeling—without any desire to shel ter or protect his victim—merely seeking the temporary gratification of his appetite, cast his eye on a mother, surrounded by her children, and determined to make her his prey ? Surely the conduct of such a person re moved him farther front our sympathies than that of a young man, gradually led to cherish a fatal passion iu the house of his friend, and tempted to gratify an af fection too strong for his virtue to controul, at the ex:. • pease of all his hopes and prospects in life. He would now shew that the defendant had sought the acquaint ance of this Lady in order to seduce her—to add her, perhaps, to the number of his victims; and having proved the case, would leave the result to their justice. George Willoughby, clerk to the plaintiff's attorney, produced the certificate of the marriage of the plaintiff and Miss Colburn, at Bromley, in Kent, in Jan. 1810. Mr. Colburn, father of Mrs. Holmer, was present at the marriage of his daughter; she was at that time 18; the plaintiff was then clerk to his father, but is now a wholesale ironmonger in Union-street, in the Borough ; the letters now produced were Mrs. Holmer's writing. Cross-examined—Had frequently visited his daugh ter; they did not live comfortably. Mr. Holmer called on witness about Christmas, and a conversation took place between them respecting Mrs. Holmer. He ac knowledged that he had treated her ill, but said he would act differently in future; had not heard from her that Mr. Holmer treated her ill. He did not visit them some times for six months together; did not hear plaintiff say anything about a person named Oliver till last Christmas. The letters of Mrs. Holmer to her husband, written to him whilst absent on his journies, and couched in terms of the warmest affection, were then read. They commenced in 1821, and continued down to the latter end of 1822; they throughout spoke in the strongest terms of affection, and expressed the most anxious wishes for his return. Charlotte Bingham deposed that she lived servant with the plaintiff—went into his family at Michaelmas, 1822. Mr. Holmer was frequently absent on journies, but when in town lived constantly with his family, in Uniun-street. There were four children, three of whom were daughters. When witness had been abbot three months in her place, she was walking with her mistress and two of the children, when she observed a gentleman pass them on horseback, who turned on his horse to look at Mrs. llolmer—and afterwards turned his horse round and passed them again—he smiled at Mrs. Holmer, but, she took no notice of him, and he rode on. Witness did not at that period know who the gentleman was, but she since knew it was Mr. Collet. Mr. Holmer was at this time in town, but soon after he went out of town fr:r his January journey, and during his-absence witness saw Mr. Collett two or three times at the house in Union-street; the way to the private dwelling of the plaintiff was through the warehouse, at the back of which was a private door; Mr. Collett used to knock at that door, and was admitted sometimes by witness, and sometimes by the other servants; he never came when Mr. Holmer was in town ; when he came he used to stay about an hour. Witness then proceeded to nar ,rate the growth of the intimacy between the defendant and her mistress, and its consequences. She observed that her mistress appeared very uncomfortble, and very much agitated in her mind. Mrs. Holmer became so unwell that she was obliged to keep her room. Mr. Collett called during the time she was ill, and seat his card up with his best love. Mr. Collett continued to come frequently, but always when Mr. lioliner was out of town. From this time Mrs. Holmer became very violent towards her children, and much less affectionate towards Mr. Holmer. On cross-examination, witness admitted that she was married, but did not live with her husband. She had not told Mr. Holmer of her meeting with Mr. Collett ' in the street, because she did not know it was her place to do so. She had had some quarrels with her mistress lately, but would not therefore speak against her. Being re-examine.l, she stated that she had told Mn. Holmer more than once, it was a pity she did not de dine Mr. Collett's visits. She had a quarrel v ith her mistress about six weeks after Christmas, and was dis charged, but Mrs. Holm.er afterwards desired she would come back, and w itness said she would not, unless Mrs. Holmer would decline Mr. Collect's visits. She did, however, afterwards go back. Wm. Cooper, porter to Mr. ilolmer, proved that in the beginning of January, 1823, winless saw Mr. Col lett and plaintiff's nursery-maid together in the street, talking. Soon after Mr. Collett came into the ware house, and asked if there wAs any answer to the note Ihe had sent just before? Witness was sent up to know whether there was any answer ; and the nursery-maid came down and said the Gentleman was to walk up gaits. Benjamin Boison, the plaintiff's warehouseman, Mary Ann Ayres, a charwoman employed in the family, and Richard Dickenson, the plaintiff's shnpman, corroborated the testimony of Charlotte Bingham in its material part. Mr. Shepherd, the plaintiff's partner, and Miss M.irs den, a visitor of the family, proved that the plaintiff and his wife lived on affectionate terms until Mr. Collett be came acquainted with Mrs. Holmer. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL then addressed the.lury for the defendant. He relied chiefly on the absence of all the evidence that might have been ptoduced to prove that the parties lived happily together before the alleged intimacy between Mrs. Holmer and the defendant.— The Learned Counsel contended, that in such a case as that which was then under their consideration, the Jury ought to be cautious how they inferred the commis sion of the act, and before they awarded damages they must be morally satisfied that the guilty intention was executed. He admitted the existence of that inten- tion, but that was not sufficient grounds to justify a verdict for the plaintiff. But even if their verdict was to pass for the plaintiff, to what damages was he entitled? What loss had he sustained from the solaces of one whom be had so seldom seen—who fell an easy conquest, and was actually the seducing matron, and not the pursued, and persecuted, and tardily surrendering wife. In this case, too, there were no aggravations. It was not pre tended that any friendship existed between the plaintiff and the defendant, or that they were even known to each other. It was altogether divested of aggravation, even if they believed the adultery to have been com mitted. A verdict for moderate damages would more than compensate the plaintiff for any loss that he would have sustained by the faithlessness of so worthless a woman.—The Loan Collar Jusrice summed up the evident*, and the Jury having retired for about half an hour, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages £3OO. MORRIS AND ANOTHER D. PATON. This was an action for the breach of an agreement entered into by the defendant with the plaintiffs, the proprietors of the Haymarket Theatre. Mr. Paton was the father of the actress of that name, and the agree ment in question was entered into by him, on behalf of the young Lady, she being a minor, and therefore not capable of judging for herself. Mr. GURNEY stated the case. The defendant's daughter, he said, who was no doubt known to all the Jury, was first brought forward by the plaintiffs at their Theatre, in 1822, at which time they acted towards her with the greatest liberality ; for before she had performed at all, and when it could not be known whether she would be successful or not, they agreed to give her £8 a-week for the season ; and Mr. Paton afterwards agreed that his daughter should enter into an engagement for three succeeding seasons, at 91. 101. and 111. per week, and an agreement was to be signed to that effect before the season of 1822 expited. Frequent applications were made to him to execute his agreement, but he invariably evaded doing so; still, however, she commenced the season of 1823, at a salary of 101. and continued to play occasionally till the latter end of August, at which time she refused to play any more, alleging that her health was so bad she must have rest to recruit her strength. Accordingly, on the Ist of September, she withdrew herself from the Theatre entirely, and that at a time when her services were most material to the con cern : in consequence of her doing so, the plaintiffs were subjected to very great loss. She withdrew herself on the Ist of September, on pretence of ill health ; on the 2d she left London; on the .sth she sang in public at Manchester; on the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th at Ezeter ; on the 20th at Manchester ; again on the 24th at Glas gow; and on the 29th and following week at Edin burgh. And in this manner it was that this young Lady retired to recruit her health by rest. To recover a com pensation for the loss which the plaintiffs had sustained by defendant's breach of agreement, the present ac tion was brought. Mr. Edward Pritchard. the Treasurer of the Hay market Theatre, produced the agreement signed by the defendant. Miss Paton continued to act in the sea son of 1823, till the beginning of September ; the wit ness paid her salary to Mr. Patoni eight pounds a-week, for 1822, and ten pounds for that part of 1823 in which she played. After she teased to play the receipts of the house evidently fell off. Cross-examined.—Witness did not know that Miss Paton refused to sign articles in 1823 for eleven weeks, nor when she came of age.—(The contract was t' en rut in and read). It commenced--;-" I consent that my daughter shall," &c. —Well, Mr. Gurney, and The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE. have you proved that Miss Paton did agree? Mr. SCARLET - T.—MIS, as I think, is the first time such an action as this was ever brought. I never heard of an action having been brought against a father who had consented to his daughter's marriage, because the daughter afterwards refused to marry. Mr. GURNEY contended that the word "consent" must here be taken to mean agree." The Learned ' Counsel then put in a letter of Mr. Paton to Mr. Morris, in which that Gentleman stated that his daughter would not 'ratify the agreement, but, to prevent disappoint ment, would perform for, a certain number of %seeks. The letter also contained semi observations as to the conduct of the m anagers in the preceding season, in having called on- I‘liss Paton to appear so frequently before the Public, to the evident injury of her health. It also stipulat e d t h at t h e L a d y s h ou ld h ave a ve t o as to the Gentleman with whom she was to he called on to perform. A letter was also pet in from Miss Paton, in which she stated that k WAS useless to apprise her of re -1 tarsals, as it was not her intention to pet form any m re. The LORD JusTlce, upon this evidence, de clared his opinion, that this was nut a contract binding Mr. Paton, or rendering bias liable in this action; it was not an agreement that his daughter should perform— it was only a consent that she should do so, if she thought tit.—Plaintiff nonsuited. BII•NT V. ROBINSON'. This was an action by a silkman, against the defen dant, for giving a false character for reedit to a person named Gillingham, whereby the plaintiff was ithlticed to cledit the latter with goods to the amount of 3701. and he having turned out to be insolvent at the time, the plaintiff sustained damage to that amount. The case was cleatly made out, and the Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 3701. FEES OF CONSULSe•-•-•DE LEMA V. nALDIMAND. The Arronwev-GeNBRAL stated this to be an action brought by the Spanish Consul in this country for work and service done. The detendant had held certain Spa nish Bonds, which the plaintiff cancelled, and for which he gave certificates or receipts upon the Spanish Go vernment. F'or this service the fees were sought, and fur which this action came into Court. Mr. SCAR LETT elicited from the first witness, that the work u as done for the Spanish Government. The LORD CDIEF JUSTICE said the action could not be maintained, In any transaction between two private parties, the Consul was entitled to his fees; but where his Goverment was one of the parties he could not claim fee.. As well might fees be claimed in this coun try for the exchange of Exchequer Bills at the Treasury. —Nonsuit. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, APRIL 16. The trials being concluded, the convicts were brough t up for judgment before the Cosistox SERJEANT, at five o'clock. Sarah Williams and Catherine Carty were sentenced to transportation for life ; five to transportation for 14. years; forty-seven to transportation for seven years; three to be imprisoned and privately whipped; one to be privately whipped and discharged; and sixty-five to imprisonment for various pei iods. The following prisoners, convicted of capital ofences, were then placed at the bar:— James Williams, Frederick Scott, and John Ross, highway rob. bery ; John Hill Wagstaff, forgery; T. F. Crees, Richard Hughes, Richard Evans, James Wilk bey, Frederick Bolton, George Thomas, Stephen Beats, George Goswell, James Holloway, F. H. Jermaine, John Cosbet, Sheik Brom, Eliza Hillary, James Lamb, William Whitehead, Mary Ann Hudson, William Wil li ams, and James Sullivan, stealing in a dwelling - house; Thomas Pearson, George Lock, John Thomas, Thomas Hooks, Thomas Keeler, Edward Brimman, William Clutterbuck, and John Wades, for burglary. Proclamation of silence having been made, The Commow SIRJEANT proceeded to address the prisoners. The sentences which it had been his painful duty to pronounce upon those who had just left the bar, had been apportioned according to the best considera tion the Court had been able to afford to their different cases : but with respect to those who now stood at the bar, the Court had no such disci etion. Only one duty, a most painful one, was cast upon it—namely, to pro nounce that sentence which closed the scene of this life upon them for ever. As the degrea of their guilt were different, so were their prospects of mercy in another quarter different; but the Court had no power to hold out hopes to any of them : it was possible that they might all suffer. If any of them received a transmuta tion of their sentence, it would still be on condition (which might be considered a hard ' one under other circumstances) of their final separation from their-coun try and friends. Whatever might be the result of the petitions of their friends here, there was a throne at which petitions for merc.y were never offered in vain. He therefore implored teem to consider the awful situa tion in which they stood, having now forfeited their lives, and lose no time in making their peace with Heaven. Whether they lived or died, the time devoted to such a purpose would not be thrown away. His Lordship concluded by pronouncing sentence of death upon them all. Hudson and Hillary, being pregnant, prayed stay of execution.—The Court then adjourned. Not long age we paid as much as 5001. a week to the casual poor : this week the same slass of poor have been paid with less than 144—Sheffeld Paper. Dovin, Arm 11.—The following disgraceful oc currence and breach of hospitality took place here last week : Some foreigners landed from the French packet, with a camel, a bear, and too monkeys, for which they paid a considerable duty ; they obtained the permission of the Mayor to exhibit them about the town, for the purpose of defraying some part of their expenses. The monkeys were trained to many diverting tricks, and a very large sum had been offered for them; how ever, it was their first and last day of exhibition in this county: some malicious person went to a chymist and purchased two-penny worth of arsenic, which was in troduced into some figs and given to the animals, while they were amusing the public ; they were shortly after observed to be ill, and died in the evening, to the great loss and regret of the owner, for whom they had a great fondness, and clung sound his neck for assilance, when the poison began to be painful to them. It is to be re gretted the delinquent has escaped punishment. In jus tice to the chymist, he refused to supply the poison, without a second person certifying that it was for a proper purpose; when the offender brought another to answer for his intention. An action for damages was tried at the Kerry As sizes, " Eager v. M , Slieehy," for loss sustained by plaintiff in consequence of the seduction of his daughter, under promise of man iage. The trial occupied the at tention of the Court and of a respectable Jury for the whole of Monday, who (at ten o'clock at night) returned a verdict for plaintiff; 2501. damages and costs. Friday se'intight, as the condemned i risoners were entering the jail, in Bury, one of them, of the name of Bradnum, convicted of the burglary at Glemsford, was thus accosted by his mother :—" Well, boy , what are you to be done to?" "'slanged, mother , " replied the son.
