'The Generarkapallulated with bids : upon which the Coachman aimed a blow at the General. accompanied with a Orrent of abate. i The General then idled the Inatohnran, and gave him charge of the coachman. This was relußantly complied with by the watchman, who teemed to have fympatbetic feeling far kilo, and enquired who the General was, and whom be iiteried for. Mr. Tag's, a refpeetable tradelman inßanchtlreet, feting the stunner in which the General (who was at this time unknown to hiro), was treated by the watchman, and knowing from experience the steat ment a Gentleman of the General's appearance wa. likely to meet with at the watch.ttuufe. accompanied hits: these. The General. an his arrival, cuquited , for the Conflable of the night, end was OnfWeed by the Defendant. He then gave charge of the coach tnan for an affault, and related the whole of the cir. etunfiatace. The Defendant laid the machswas had made his fubmiflion, and recommended the General to giv.: up his charge, which he refuted to do—and the coachman thereupon, laid be gave charge for charge ; and when the General WAS about to with.' draw, be was told that he was a ',Weser, the coaeh• man having given him charge of him. Mr. Tebbs anted the defendant if lie would take bail for the Ge. neral's appearance next morning, and was anfwered in the negative. He then anted whether, if a honk keeper. and an inhabitant of the pitfall, should be propofed a: bail, if he would accept him : to this he anfwered he would not. Mr. Tebbe then propufed himfelf at bail, but was rejeCted t he offered the Ge neral to become his bail. and advifed him, by way of form, to tender bins to the Defendant, which he did accotdMgly. The Defendant again refuted to admit him to ball. laying, he did not know whether he was acing tight or wrong, but he would not li berate him. The General Paid it was of no confe quence—as there was a good fire, he would lit down by it till the morning. and placed himfelf in a chair by the fire, when he was told he midi not fit there. The General laid he would Mend. He was then told be mutt not (land either. for he man go to the dungeon —andhe was accordingly lodged with the coachman in a miferabie hole about twenty feet by twelve, only (even feet high, without 14e s and candle, and kept there for the (pace cf twelve bouts, wisbost a chair or any Mill to lit on. and scarcely able to walk, fbr fear of ilippmg io the filth difgnrged from the uVer- WNW llumacks of the foemer inibabirants, the Renck of which was heightened by AO over Mowing of the privy in the corner of the dungeon, and this (till en. . . ,ereafed by the conchae'. • The Ceheral was taken before a Magiarate at one o'clock the next day, and plifcharged.

Mr. Gatsow obfaved, that his client, by this fait, fought to obtain a cnonpenfation in damages fur the molt difgraceful copdut oa the part of ttc Defen dant, by cnmmitting A violent outrage on the per fon of the Plaintiff,. The Defendant was the leader of a prefs gang, and although that (ervice was race fary to be performed in .order to man his Majelty's navy, yet it ought always to be fulfilled with deco. rum, without ill treating even thole whom it was their duty to imprefs. but mai:ll.l4s without intuit ing private individuals, and preventing them from executing their ordinary occupations . Mr. Urqu• Kart had a counting houf: near the Royal Exchange. but refuted at a (bort diffance from town, „and was proceeding thither down 'Grant-lane' accompanied by his wife and his fi ller, when he met the Defendant and ilia gang. Mr. tiir imptediately demanded to what Chip th'e Plaintiff belonged ? and was anfwered that he was not a framaa, but an owner of The Defendant next required to look at Mr. Utqu hart's hands', with which the latter refaced, to com ply, and Mr. Fair feized him by one Moulder, while time of his men took him by the other. Jolt at this moment, a ptrfun who knew the Plaintiff came up, and was much furprized to lee him in that fituatinn, bat in vain attempted to racue him. Mrs. thquhar% with her filler ' was dragged (tons the proteetion of her butband, aad the Defendant furore dui' the Plaintiff fhnuld g o on board the tender that night. They proceeded to force hint to compliance, and in the rent& Mr. Urquhart received many revere blows; his coat was tont from his back, and he was thrown down with great violence. At this junnure another friend of the Plaintiff', interfered, and the Midillip• man permitted Mr. Urquhart to depart. 'The Plain tiff then demanded the name of his Lieutenant,— and the defendant replied famisisly, Capt. Ut guitar% returning the Plaintiff's nun name upon him. Mr. Garrow raid. that there would be as Much propriety in the Defendant's impreffing any of his Learned Friends as the Plaintiff, and he was fatisfied that if Mr. Fair was allowed to commit fuch outrages, no thing but their prnleffional drefs would protea them. Thomas Nichntfon, John Gladfon, and prep!) Morrell, were then called, the latter of whom &po red, that the Plaintiff, by Come people, might eafily have been millaken for a feaman. One of the witneles being elked if Mr. U. bad the appearance of a failnr, and if be was not well dreffed as he appeared then, he bring in Couit, and fitting under Mr. Garrow, raid, that prefs-gangs were often deceived by the flop-fellers and, upon being crofs. examined, laid, that Mr. U. had a fort of flouching walk, like a Lailor. Sir Vicaar Giese addreffed the Jury onbehalf of tote Defendant ; be (aid, that the whole proceeding of his client arofe from a mistake. It was not from any malicious motive that be had all:suited or out— raged the Plaintiff ; but it frequently happened. that (eamen difguifed thernkves, in order to avoid tltofe on the imprefs ferrite ; and,although, certain ly, Mr. Urquhart was not dreffed as a Tailor, yet, units, tunately for the Defendant, it happened, that he was of a dark (wart by complexion. and by that mean. the mitipprehention had arifen. The Defendant, two days after the affault had been com mitted, called opan the Plaintiff, aiding to make any apology and eontpenfation within his means, but Mr. Urquhart refuted to accept any accommoda tion. The Learned Counfel exp.:lied his hope, that the Jury would take the various eircumtlances into eontideratinn ; and although a vetch& mutt he Riven againll his cheat, more damages would Not be affigned, than the jullice of the cafe required. Lord•Er.tessoanunis laid, it was of the tall ins portance that officers employed in the imprefs ler vice lhould coOduti thernfelves with propriety. It was alio of importance that they fhoold be protelted in the fair difcharge of their duty ; at the lame time. if they mikondated themfelves, they were arnanabir to the laws. The Defendant's condnet, in not telling the name of his Lieutenant, was highly improper. The Plaintiff, however, had received no great par. lima' injury, and the Defendant was a pm Cm of no property—the Jury would the' dime legislate thee damages accordingly.
