ASSIZES. ICTNGSTON, APRIL 1. Pearson Pot:Wayne was charged with having, Bth of November, feloniously assaulted Ann Fall, at Vauxhall, and with having taken from (bur three shining tokens, the property of Wil van, her husband. Maria Fall, Mrs. Cooper, her mother, and me Ives, were the only witnesses called for the cation. Arsotestus examined in chief at some length. PLATT cross-examined at very great length. prisoner was introduced to Mrs. Cooper s fe at Croydon, several years ago.

She did a Mr. Durand ; he did not live with her, she with him. - Fall stated, that the prisoner met her bet Ween -en and twelve o'clock in the morning, on the Bth lovember, alleged a claim of debt, and demanded iyment. She denied all knowledge of any debt, id said, she had no money to give him. He fol- Id her from near Westminster Bridge to Vane where he terrified her to give him four 3s. to . They. had met crowds of persons, but she AI for no aid. A letter, written by the prisoner, assertinie the grossest abuse of Mrs. Cooper and r mother, eras read. The prisoner spoke at great length in his own de le. He had been introduced to Mrs. Cooper's fa by a lady of the town. He lent her 201. which never repaid. He was anxious to learn where lived, in order to apply for payment, when he ac tentally fell In with Mrs. Fall. He followed her she gave him three half-crowns as an admission le debt, for he had got her guarantee of the debt ,:inally, because the mother did not live with her .;band. He had given hi; address at the New York offee-house, and made no attempt to avoid any in '-y or scrutiny. A letter from Mr. Hamilton, the orsecutaix's attorney, to the prisoner, was read. It -eatened the most decisive measures, if he repeated gross and unmanly interruption he had given to rs. Fall. The. date was the 10th of November. The JUDGE stemmed up decidedly against the pro legion. Verdict—Not Guilty. Mrs. Cooper and Mrs. Fall are rather fine-leoking ies. Captain Fountayne is a short bmtling gen san, but not particularly prepossessing. THURSDAY, APRIL 2. William /harshen and Thomas Den were tried ter Lord Ellenborough's Act, for having violently aiilted and wounded John Sharp, in thechurch-yard Lambeth, on the night of the 30th of November. Cohn Lea.ger, Sexton of the Parish of Lambeth, t employed the two prisoners to assist him in :thing the Church-yard, for a fortnight prior to 30th of November. Marshall had been so em led the previous winter. There were four or five eels on Sunday, the 30th of November, about ee o'clock. Witness and his sons had repeatedly use round the Church-yard to see that all was safe. the evening, after having locked the Church, he nit into the Burial-ground to set men-traps, un town to Marshall, but Marshall followed him, and or him set them. He demanded the key of Mar tell, but he refused it, saying he wished to look in grsen3. afterwards. Between eleven and twelve when witness and his sons came into the eued, they saw two men, and heard them convers about the graves, going first to the ground where e poor were buried, next to the ground for burial children, and then to the bone-horse, , and took ro shovels, with which they went to the poor grave. • knew them to be the prisoners at the bar. lhar- , ,all pulled off his coat, and set a digging into the or grave till he came to the coin. Ruffin was ;th rum at the foot of the grave. Witness heard clearing of the mould from the top of the coffin : came -forward to the hcad of the grave, about 12 paces from it, and said—" You scoundrels, don't you want some assistance there r Duffin, using very bad language, said—" We are took to." Marshall struck at him with the shovel, but missed. Witness said— " Will, don't you know me ?" He replied, with a bitter oath—" I know nobody." Witness parried a second blow with a fowling-piece he had in his hand, and struck Marshall, so as to set him a-reeling.— Marshall then shifted the shovel into his left hand, l and swore he would do for him now. Witness called for assistance, being unprotected; his son Joseph came . forward, and asked— ,, Will you shoot your master ?" He replied--" Yes, and you too." His son fired with a pistol over his head, and he surren dered himself immediately. Marshall was secured, with much struggling and difficulty. Witness did not see Sharp or Duffin. He was occupied only with his own preservation. The shovel was produced and identified.—On his cross-examination, he said, that the second time he spoke to the prisoner, he said— " Surrender, or I'll shoot you." He had a fowling., piece in his hand. Marshall had made the first blow at him before he said so. John Sharp lives in a house in High-street, which looks over the Church-yard. He went into the Church-yard, about eleven o'clock, with Mr. Leaver and his two sons. They secreted themselves behind the tombs ; they heard a noise at the bone.house: he soon saw two men, and heard one of them say— " This is shallow ;"that is, it is a child's grave. He saw them soon after digging into a grave. Mr. Lea.' ger struggled with one of them, and at that instant received a bloW on the forehead, over the right eye, which cut him. It bled very much, but it was net dangerous. He was attended by medical assistanen for a fortnight or three weeks. He.was taken immeel diately to a Surgeen; he had some fever, but notl 1 very violent ; he then saw a person with his arm uplifted, attempting to strike a second time. Witness knocked him down with the poker; it was the priso ner. Duffin ; he then got on him, and endeavoured to wrench from him a sabre which he had in his hand. Young Leager came and struck Duffin's hand with his pistol, and got the sabre from him. It was pro. duced in Court and identified.—On his cross-exa urination, he said the sabre did cut into the hone.— The first thing that passed at the gray was Leager coming up and saying-4 , Desist and surrender."— On direct examination, he said they were at some dis tance from Leager and Marshall, and could not see them : it was about fifteen or twenty yards. Joseph. Leager, the Sexton's son, hearing his father call for help, ran to him, and seeing Marshall with his hand uplifted to strike him with a shovel, said— " For Goa's sake, don't strikel Will, it is your mas ter." He replied—" I don't care who it is—l'll cut his bloody heal off." He corroborated the former . evidence in other particulars. James Leager, another son, went to Marshall to demand the key. He said he should give it to cone but his master. He said the resurrection men would not be there that Sunday evening, but on the Tues day or Wednesday, when he should let him know of it. Mr. CuawooD, for the prisoners, contended that their conduct did not come under the Statute. The wounding was not such as the Statute provided for, unless it would hav: been murder, if death had en sued. Death arising from resince to an illegal apprehension was not murder. The apprehension iu this case was not legal; for it was legal only to ap prehend for felony or a breach of the peace. Their conduct was a trespass, but not a felony or a breach of the peace, :or an attempt to enact it a felony had failed; therefore the prisoners were not guilty accor ding to the Statute. Prejudice or feeling must not be allowed to operate in the administration of strict criminal law. Mr. HEATH replied.--Whatever might have been the intention of Mr. Leaser and his party, it was not made known to the prisoners before they made the assault. This was particularly the case as to Duf fin's conduct, which was the ground of the indictment. Mr. Baron WO , _:D said he wohld reserve the points of law for the Judges if the Jury found the prisoners guilty. Duffin, the prisoner, said they had been only as certaining whether the grave had been opened, and eilibited a deep scar on the side of his head, which, he said, had been made by the poker. Marshall, the other prisoner, said all thew had shot at him at once. Two shots had lodged in his breast. It was not the .first act of combination in which Mr. Leager had been engaged while he had been 'watching. He had done this fur nothing but to get himself a fine name. He robbed the parish, 'by charging for ten feet, wl.en the grave was only three feet. Mr. Baron WOOD, in summing up, observed, that the Act under which this indictment was brought was highly penal. It provided for cases where the intent was murder. and where grievous maiming or wounding was inflicter:. Every case of assault and battery was not to be comprehended -under the Act. The first question for the Jury was, whether the cut-. ting in this case was with intent to murder, and did grievous personal harm ? The second question was, whether the cutting was not with intent to prevent their being apprehended ? After the Jury had deliberated for some time, one of them said they could not agree. Mr. Baron Woon said, that although they should be acquitted now, there was an indictment for assault and battery, and they should sot go unpunished. A Juror said, that one of them was of opiAion that they were not guilty. Mr. Baron WooD.---You must agree. Verdict—Guilty, in defending thenti&es.—lt was taken Guilty, and the points of law were reserved for the opinion of the Judges. The prisoners were then arraigned fur the trespass and the assault. They pleaded Not truilty ; and agreed, by advice of Counsel, to have their trial put off till next Term. Matthew Bell and Thomas Hall, were tried for hav ing broken into the Church of. St. Saviocr, Sou±- wark, and having stolen several curtains and brass rods. They were both convicted. HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—Matthew GilthlHß was charg ed with having, at Epsom, on the ath September, robbed Sarah 'Farrell of a bundle, and a pint of gin. r Sarah Farrell said he had taken her hand forcibly, and asked her if she would take a gown:. note ?
