ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. BRISTOL. Amin 27. Lord Chief Justice Baararrived here and opened the Commission on Saturday, and this day ptocreded to business. Only one Judge attends on this part ni the circuit, the criminal business being disposed of by the Recorder and local jurisdiction. entymne causes ' ate entered, and they are chiefly - of a frivolous character. The Assizes will, it is expected, terminate on Wednesstay. SLANDSR-TONE , V. NEYLER. Mr. Cnowriaa read 'the di claration, which set forth that the defendant had used slanderous a ords of the plaintiff, imputing to him either the commission of a robbery in his house, or the instigation of others to commit it ; describing plaintiff at the time by the name of Aleph Surface, and calling him " a dangerous poi. soneus character." Also asserting of him that he robbed his neighbour Hilt's garden. Mr. WILLIAMS, in stating the case, said that the parties were neighbours, the plaintiff having rented from the defendant one of a row of cottages which the latter had built on the Glocester-road, near this city. There were many actions which emanated from slight! and frivolous causes, horn the sudden heat of angry discussion, and ought therefore to be regarded with ! comparative indifference. There were others, however, of a premeditated and deliberate character which de served to be very differently treated, and this was of the, latter description. It was not the least heinous part of! the defendant's conduct, that the plaintiff was left for some time unacquainted with the slander which he had propagated. He would i.rosiuce the evidence, and leave the case in the hands of the Jury for the assessment of damages. William Oakley deposed, that he knew the plaintiff and defendant. Mr. Jones s iva, a miniature painter, and in the year 1825 occupied one of the houses built by the defendant, on the Uloucester•road. List winter, when witness went to engage one of these cottages from Mr. Neyler, that gentleman cautioned him against one of his tenants (the plaintiff), whom he represented as a dangerous meddling character ; and at another time (May 1826) the defendant informed him that his house was broken open, and he believed Mr. Junes to have been either the man who committed or instigated thel robbery, calling him by the name of Joseph Surface. He also said that his neighbour (Mr. Hill) had had po. tatoes stolen from his garden, which Jones must have taken. This communication withheld witness from . speaking to Mr. Jones for the space of five months. Cross•examined by Mr. Sergeant WILDE-It was the first five months; but they had since become acquaint. ed, upon witness's finding that the slander was not just. Have you not, in (act, become quite intimate with him since?—l know him. Are you not a reader of his poetry and prose have read them. Ate they not very good ?—I don't recollect. Don't you remember one word of the poetry ?—No, I don't. • _ What, not of the poem of the Parson and the Tithes? No; they were only loose detacheJ pieces. So loose that you don't wish to remember them, is it ?—1 don't think of such things. In his further evidence he stated that it was in May he told Junes what Neyler had said of him, but it was not until after Neyler had failed to fulfil his promise about letting him a small plot of ground. As soon as this failure occurred, then be went to Jones to mention how his character had been maligned, and to' form an acquaintance with him exactly at the moment when he (Jones) was quitting the neighbourhood. James Wallace, an aged husbandman, after giving some rigmarole history of his planting some trees, with the assistance of some old Irish woman, described the defendant's coming to him, and saying" There's Jones who stole the man's potatoes." Wm. Oakley, jun. corroborated the first witness's evidence as to the use of the abusive phrases. Wm. Giant had conversed with the defendant about this business. The latter admitted what he had said of Jones, but added it was not actionable, as he had only used the name of Joseph Surface. Witness being a bet ter lawyer, pronounced Neyler's notion of things to be in error, and thought the words actionable. As soon as Neyler suspected the action was brought, he said it was all true, and that his opinion of Jones had improved. Mr. Stneant Wits', for the delendant, t idiculed this trumpery action, in the pleadings of which special da mages were recited, inasmuch as this Mr. Jones had, by Neyler's slander, lost for some time the acquaintance and good opinion of his neighbour Oakley (the first wit ness). Now there was nothing before the Jury to enable them to ascertain the value of Oakley's society. It was qu to manifest that he had ne►er dreamt of apprizing Jones of the slander, until Neyler had refused to let him the ground near his garden; and then to tell a man that he wanted his society, because he knew he was leaving the neighbourhood, and hid heard he was de scribed as Joseph Surface, and as a thief, was the oddest of all times and inducements for farming an acquaint a;-,ce. He left this ridiculous case entirely in the hands of the Jury. _ _ The LORD CHIRP Risme, in his charge, concurred in the ridicule which was heaped upon the attempt to snake this a case of " special damages." It reminded him of a man's claiming special damages once at Not tingham, for not being invited to a dinner party. A verdict must here pass for the plaintiff, and it was for the Jury to assess the amount of the damage!. The Jury, after five minute.' consideration, found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages one Farthing. AUGUST 28. STRYINS versus PIERCZ. These Gentlemen are rival inkeepers at Truro, the one keeping the Red Lion, and the other Pierce's Hotel. —The declaration stated, that defendant was a carrier from Bristol to Truro, in which capacity two hampers had been entrusted to his care, containing eight quarts of turtle, which instead of delivering as per direction, he unlawfully converted to his own use. Some one ob served, that justice was not likely to be rendered, unless twelve Alder men sat as a Jury, but the Learned Gen tleman was fearful that that number could not be collected—he did not see enough round him. From the evidence it appeared, that Mr. Tring, the landlord of the Montague Tavern, Bristol, packed the turtle, and sent it by the 0 d Down marl coach. At Exeter this mail ceases to tun, and the F•lmou.h mail commences. .vir. Tring's niece wrote the address to Mr. Stevens, and added, " Perishable gr.ods," as she was always in the habit of doing; Mr. Stevens sent frequently to Pierce's Hotel, where the marl stops, but the answer always was, that no such parcel had arrived; about a hrr tn;gnt afterwards, the book•keeper at Mr. Prerce's found two hampers in the cellar, and one it them had a direction on parchment attached to it, which he took over to the Red Lion ; this parchment hid been examined by several witnes.es, some of whom made out the whole of" Perishable go , ds," others could only read oo—s; some could read the whole word Doi; others only ion; some could read Mr. entirely, Jahn nearly, and almo..t Sic; others missed the Sle, and found out the ns at the end of the name. Mr. Pterce's cook proved, that on the day t of the races he dressed Irom 12 to XS quarts of turtle; it was for these races that Stevens had ordered the turtle from the Montague Tavern ; a witness more anzioiks than others, applied a chemical process to the parchment for the purpose of more clearly making out what was written ; but instead of so succeeding it was quite vice versa for every trace from that moment vanished, and the wit. tresses could only swear that the parchment produced on the trial, was the same size as the one of which they had been opening. A letter Irom plaintiff to Mr. Mils was read, in which the former desired that the latter should be sent by the mail. This was the plaintiff's case. Chief Justice BUT—Well, brother Wilde, how do you answer this, they have given you something to digest.r— -(A laugh). Mr. Sergeant WlLDn • addressed the Jury, and said, that a Counsel never knew all that he had to contend against, and it was his misfortune in the present instance to contend against an opinion that had been formed, without hearing one word that could be brought for ward in the defence. The CHIEF JU3TIOE—Any thing that I have said, brother Wilde, was stated in the most perfect good humour, and by no means warrants what has just !alien front you. . Mr. Sergeant WILDE—Your Lordship has thought proper to form an opinion before you have heard my defence, and I must say— .... The 611 LE Jurrsci—l am unwilling to press too heavily on you, Sir, for I know the infirmity under which you have been labouring this day or two, but if you repeat what you have already said, I shall be obliged to take other steps. Mr. Sergeant WiLve—My Lord, to repeat anything that I have already said, would be an affront to your Lordship for which I should abhor myself. The CHIEF Justice—Certainly, Brother Wilde, no. thing would induce me to look over this, but for the illness tinder which I know you are labouring. Mr. Sergeant Mum—My Lord, .I beg to disclaim any advantage which you are pleased to give me on that account. The Cram Jusvca—Well, Sir, your behaviour has been neither respecttul twine, nor to the situation which you yourself hold. Mr. Sergeant WILnZ—My Lord, the situation which I hold makes me desirous to do my duty, and nothing more. The Learned Sergeant then proceeded. He should be able to shew that the book-keeper at Old Down had entered the parcel there as directed to Mr. Pearce; that the book-keeper at Exeter had done the same on his way-bill ; and that when the hamper ar rived at Truro, owing to wet or other cause, the direc tion was illegible ; of course, the only mode the land lord could pursue in such a case, was to refer to the way-bil, and there he found it directed to himself.— But with respect to the law of the question, he appre hended that the Learned Judge would decide, that as the hamper was not sent by any specific conveyance pointed out by Stevens, the property was still in Mr. Tring till delivery took place. The Cates Joserca—l will decide nothing, Brother Wilde: after what has passed. I shall leave every ques tion, however small, to the Jusy. Mr. Sergeant WILDS then continued his address, in the coarse of which be was interrupted by some remark from Mr. Erskine, who conducted the plaintiff's case. The Cates it:lama—Pray don't interrupt, Mr. Erskine, or the Learned Sergeant will lose his temper. At the conclusion of the Learned Sergeant's address, a question arose as to whether there was sufficient on the record to go to the Jury. The CHIEr Justus requested Mr: Erskine to state candidly whether he thought he could carry the case on the record ; there did not appear any conversion to use. He asked him, because be was sure the Learned Counsel knew how to be beaten. Mr. EasKtua—Why, my Lord, I hare had some ex perience—(a Laugh)—but I hai rather the case should go on. Mr. Sergeant WILDE then examined one witness, after which be said, that he would rest on the points of law. The CHIEF JUSTICE said, that he thought that he had better reserve those points ; and in the meantime, to satisfy the conscience of the Court, he should leave it to the Jury to assess the damages. Mr. ECIKINZ then replied, and said, ihat whatever the policy of the Learned Sergeant might be in resting his case on the point of law, the Jury must be so good as to remember, that everything that Learned Gentle. man had stated, must go as nothing, as he had foreborne to call witnesses to support his statement. The Learned Gentleman then went on to contend, that he had completely made out his case, and he felt satisfied that the act of sending the hampers by the mail—the only mail which could convey a parcel from Bristol to Truro, was a sufficient consignment of the property to Mr. Stevens, especially as he had paid Mr. Tring for the right quarts of turtle. The CHIEF Justice then summed up the case, and the Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 41. Bs. A Quaker, alighting from a Bristol (U.S.) coach, on entering the inn, called for some beer, and observing the pint deficient in quantity, thus addressed the land lord :—" Pray, friend, how many butts of beer dost thou draw in a month?" "Ten, Sir," replied Boniface, " And thou wouldst like to draw eleven," rejoined Ebenezer ?" " Certainly," exclaimed the smiling land lord. " Then I will tell thee how, friend, added the Q raker, — Fill thy measures." Dr. Patrick Blair, who was in the rebellion of 1745, got himself into Newgate, and was condemned to be hanged. In the British Museum are several of his let ters to S:r Hans Sloane, written in prison, soliciting his intercession, and in one of them he write:—" If you come towards Newgate, I hope you will favour me with a call." Dr. Martyn, C.e Professor of B.tany at Cambridge, supped with him in Newgate the night previous to his expected execution. Blair hid been all along confident that he should be reprieved. Dr. Mar tyn said he sat pretty quietly till the clock struck nine, and then he got up and walked about the room; at ten he quickened his pace ; and at twelve, no rept ieve com ing, he cried out—" By my troth, this is carrying the jest too far !" The reprieve, however, came soon alter, and in due time a pardon. Blair went afierwards and settled at Boston, in Lincoln hire, where he practised till his death.—Wates Memoirs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. Al A NSION- HOUSIL The Landlord of the Refreshment ltooms wtich are under those belonging to the Gambling Warns, iu Throgniorton street, ap peared, yesterday, before the Lord Mayor, and requested to be sworn to an affidavit, stating that the proprietors of Owe Room, had no connection with the billiaid-rnoms, in which tiaa abominable system of gambling had been carried on. Mr. Wonler, who appealed as his legal adviser, represented the hardship a which the deponent was subjected, in participating in the disgrace which had fallen updo the Proprietor of dui gambling rooms with so much force. The LORD 3laroe, upon reading the paper, shook his bead, an& said that he could not think of swearing suck an affidavit. Mr. Wooler said that it was of great importance to his client that bit eaablishment should be considered different in every respect from that which, untortunately for him had been carried un in the upper part of the building. The landlo rd of the refreshment rooms was in no respect attached or connected with the gambling com pany, nor was he aware of the nature of the transactions which had been carried on in the concern. The Loan 3laroa said, that a man who committed a volurtary perjury was not punishable by law. He had it upon oath that toe gaating•roorw had been supplied with tefreahtnents from the de. fendant's rooms. It was better for him not to stir any more in this matter. He certainly would net allow the affidavit to be sworn. Mr. Wooler said, that it was bard upon the proprictor of the rooms to be prevented from offering some defence. The LORD Mavoa repeated, that the CORDeZIOO between the rooms had been sworn to Ipefore him, and if the deponent had any discretion he would not stir is the affair. Mr. Wooler then left the Jastice.resom. GUILDHALL Yesterday a man of decent appearance came up on a summons to answer the complaint of the Churchwardens of Bartholomew the Great for not providing for his wife. The Officers stated, that the woman, who was present, and pre sented a very emaciated appearance, was found lying on straw in a cellar in her husband's house, and was evidently suffering for want of the necessaries of life. The defendant being asked what he ►ad to say in answer to the charge, declared that his wife had contracted such an inveterate habit of intoxication that it was impossible for him to endure it longer. He always allowed her a sufficiency for the support of his family, which consisted of two fine young boys, that stood by his side, but instead of applying the money properly, she spent it in a most improper manner, and pawned every thing that was moveable besides. In April lut he redeemed every thing that was in pawn, in the hope that she might reform and behave better for the future, ►ut she had since pawned so mach that these are but a part of the poiinbrokers duplicates.—The husband here produced a whole handful of duplicates. The wife being asked by the Alderman why eke disgraced her self in such a manner y declared that she was driven to it by her husband's cruel treatment—he was in the habit of giving her blows by wholesale, and sbe was obliged to Sy to a drop of liquor (or relief. The Alderman, after admonishing .both parties, recommended that the husband should allow his wife a separate maintenance, to which he consented, and *as discharged. Frederick Booth, late a guard to a mall coach, was charged with an aggravated assault. Mrs. Cruseilla Wolfe, of Aldersgate-street, stated that about nine o'clock the previous evening, she was walking in Falcon-square with her husband, when she felt a handful of mud thrown over her pelisse. She turned round to look where it cane from, and instantly receiv ed another handful over her bonnet, and in her face and eyes. A Gentleman standing by assured her several Ladies had been treated in the same way that night by the prisoner, and she caused him to be secured. The prisoner said he was extremely drunk at the time, and be did not recollect anything about it. - Mr. Alderman Amos warmly expressed his indignation at the mischievous ungallant feeling the prisoner had shewn, and said be would endeavour to impress this freak and its consequences upon his memory. In the lint place, he should pay a fine of Ss. far being drunk, and Is. for his discharge, and then to make compensation for whatever injury be had committed. How much will it cost to clean the bonnet? inquired the Magistrate.—Twelve shillings, re plied the Lady. And how much the pelisse?—Mrs. Wolfe said it would cost a great deal more, for that, she believed, was totally spoiled; but as the prisoner was a labouring man, she would not expect him to pay anything for that article. Mr. Alderman Ammar said the fellow deserved no , pity, but per haps the payment of I Ss. would be a sunk: lent lessen to him. Tba prisoner Was removed from the bar, end mat to seem Masks to raise the money. BOW-STREET. Yesterday the office was crowded at an early hour, in the expecta tion that the Cacique of Poyais. Sir Gregor M'Gregor, would be in attendance with his bail, in poravance of the notice which he had given on the preceding day. Soon after eleven o'clock Mr. Adol plum appeared on his behalf, and took his seat on the bench. Mr. Alley soon afterwards appeared es behalf of Lieutenant Spong, and a conversation took place between the Magistrates and Counsel, as to the amount of the ball which had been required. The Counsel had been in attendance about an hour, when Mr. Auxy observed, that he had been instructed to attend at eleven, and it was past twelve, he hoped the Magistrates would allow the bail to be called. Mr. ADOLF/lIIS said, that he appeared there in accordance with his instructions (here the learned Gentleman pointed to a paper which he held in his hand) and he had no faith beyond it ; but the bail might appear in a short time. - The Magistrates proceeded with other business for more than half an hour, when Mr. Alley expressed his wish to go, as it did not appear probable the bail would come forward. Mr. HALL, directed the bail to be again called, but no one answered. ?dr. Amer said, that as the sureties did not appear, his client would, as a matter of course, receive fresh notice before bail was put in at this Office. Sir R. Pima said, that notice mast be given to the Solicitor of Lieut. Spong, before bail could be received. Mr. ADOLPHUS said, that bail might be put in before a Judge. A desultory conversation took place, and the parties lett the Office, and Sr Gregor M' Gregor was sent back to Tothill-fields Prison. MARY-LA-BONNE. Yesterday Wes. Thorp wu charged before Mr. GIIFIITII with having game unlawfully in his possession. R. H. Wall, a constable,informed Mr. Hunan that as be was coming to the office through Donet-street that mor ning, he saw the prisoner with two " common women," and they went - in to a public house to avoid him. Suspecting something wrong, Wall followed him, and said," Now, Tborp,it's of no use to abase; I want to see what you have got in your pocket." "In my pocket!' replied the prisoner; " why nothing but a pair of birds, and I have a right to do what I please with them, for they were given to me.—" And I know what to do with you," rejoined the ofilaer; "it ant the lst of September yet, so tome along with me." As they came along Paddington-street, the prisoner wanted WaU to " pocket the partridges, and make no more bother;" but Wall In sisted upon bringing him and the birds (a plump brace, fresh shot, so they appeared) before the Magistrate. The prisoner told Mr. Gamer:lt they were sent to him as a pro- sent by somebody. Mr. Giurnvis.—Aye; but who is that somebody? Prisoner.—l can't exactly say; but if you send for Mr. Dyson, of the Black Bear, in Piccadilly, perhaps he es% for they were left there for me. A messenger having been sent to the Black Rear, brought back a slip 1.1 paper said to have been annexed to the birds, with the ?li mner's name written upon it, and no other information. The statute applicable to this case enacts that no person shall, span any pretence whatever, take, kill, destroy, carry, sell, buy, or have in his possession or use, any partridge between the Ist ot . February and• the Ist of September, or any pheasant between February the Ist and October Ist yearly, an pain of forfeiting, an conviction by one witness in any of the Courtrof Record at West minster, 6L fur every such partridge or pheasant, with full costs.— But this not to extend to any pheasant taken in the season allowed by the Act, and ►ept in any mew or breeding place. And under' this statute Mr. Gurrrrs held the prisoner in his own recognisance, to appear when required. Al A It LI3OROUG H.STIIERT.

Lord Strangford's (now Lord Penshurst)srandfatheri when very young, was, with Lord Shrewsbuiy, sent abroad by his aunt, and placed in a Catholic College at Liege, much against his inclinations. He was so very averse to the regulations and manners of the so. ciety, that the members of it at last thought proper to confine him in a tower of the building. During the campaigns in Flanders, a regiment commanded by we of the Duke of Marlborough's Generals happened to take possession of the place, and entetsci the College, which they occupied. One morning, as the General was walking alone in the garden, he perceived a slate fall at his feet from a window of the building, with something written upon it. On taking it up, he oinerv. ed these words, " Lord Strangford is confined a prismief in this tower, against his will?' The Genera immedt. ately inquired of the Prefect into the circumstances of the case, and ordered the instant liberation of the young nobleman.
