COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAT 19. Lit V. TR I 14NELL. This was an action brought by. the plaintiff, who is the landlord of the City cif London public house, Ber wick -street, to recover from the defendant, who is a gold lace-manufacturer, in Piccadilly, the sum of 154 15s. being the amount of an account for spitits and wine, supplied by the plaintiff. From the evidence for the plaintiff, it appeared, that the spirits, &c. were sop ' peed in small quantities at a time, at the defendant's lodging, in Berwick -street, where his wife and family lived; and that the gin was drank by the members of his family, after dinner and supper. When the de. fendant was first applied to for payment of the account, he said he would pay it • but he afteralards said, that as he knew nothing ab out the plaintiff's having fur nished spirits to his (defendant's) wile, he would rather pay 1001. costs than discharge the account ; he bad taken advice, and was told that he was not liable for spirits furnished in such small quantities. The Avant:Nay Get/anat. said, as the defendant had availed himself of the - El:fence given him by thestatute, be should submit to his Lordship, that the deleedant's promise to pay the account after the spirits were sup plied, took the case out of the statute. However, there *ere in the acconnt several items for wine. amounting to 51. is. 6d. the recovery of which war not barred by the statute. Mr. Casseect,t, Submitted, that as the words in the statute were 4. spirituous liquors," wine furnished in quaraitiesirla bottle and less, came within the meaning or the words. Lord Tairrannett was of opinion that the defendant's promise to pay did not preclude him from availing him self of the defence given him by a very Wholesome and sAlutary statute; but there could be no ground for-say ing, thJt wines wine included in the waves' spitituous liqu.irs.''..AVerdict for the plaintiff—Damages 64 COVIIT OF COMMON PLEAS* Mar sp.- : ORPWO:)D V. IA RK;2. This was an action for slander. The facts of the ease were, shortly these:--The plaintiff was a I;yery stable keeper, cat rying on business in Holbora I tibtdeo fondant was s licensed victualler, residing next door tv the plaintiff It appeared that the parties were not altogether-opon the hest terms, and that the defendant had, on various occasions, dropped expressions to stran gers teirdiarto injuAr the character of the plaintiff; among other things it was proved, that in a conversa tio:i with Mr. Borell, the corn merchant, who supplied • the plaintiff with' corn, he'asked him whether he served the plaintiff? and upon Mr. Borell answering iu the af- firu;ative, the defendant .said, war-bawk,iwind what . you are about in that quarter." Mr. Borell, in conse quence of this, refused to let the plaintiff have any mote corn,,till the old bill,' amounting to 150/. should be dis charged. 'These facts were proved by Mr. Borell. The plaintiff's daughter proved several other malicious • expressions made use of by the defendant, and -also, that her father's business was reduced almost to nothing, he ocly having two or three horses in his stable, where • be used to have thirty or forty. Other witnesses were • called, who confirmed the truth of these facts. MT. Sergeant Wrenn addressed the Jury for the de fentani, and contendrd that the expressions com plained of were only meant in caution to Mr. Borell, add not in malice to the plaintiff: He called no witnesses. Mr. Justice GAULS/ summed up, and the Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages 15C1. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Mar 29, . 111100GLIKG OP GURAtoma•TUZ KING MUM? gear" Mr. WALTON opened: the pleadings. This was an information tiled by Isis Majesves Attorney Oesseral, against the defendant, for having imported a large quantity of coral, without having paid the duty. A second count charged him with having assisted in the importat on ; and a third, with having harboured the. coral so fraudulently imported. For each of which offences he was liable to penalties amounting to three times the value of the coral. The Souctroa-GaNzam, stated thou'', to the Jury. The defendant was a Genoese, and had been for some time engaged in smuggling coral into this country, by' means of a fraud very ingenious in its contrivance, and extensive in degree. The Jury were aware that beads and other coral ornaments were liable to • a duty upon importation into this country. There was an Italian, of the name sit Mazzinchi, residing at Stepney, who was a dealer not only in beads and other ornaments, but in those Italian eatables which were generally so agreeable to the palates of epicures in this country. Another Italian, of the name of Brambani, came to this country, from Rotterdam, where he resided; and find ing that Mazzinchi was a dealer in coral, he pro posed to him a method by whith coral might be ins pbrtEdeißthout payment of duty. Mazzinchi, being only a small dealer, was unable to take advantage of the proposition, but communicated it to the defendant. It was, , after some consultation, agreed that coralshould be pechased at the Custom-house Docks, in London; and Oat this bonded coral, which had paid no duty, and Was liable to wit upon exportation from Ibis country, should be exported to Rotterdam, and con sired to Brambani, there to be by him reimported into this country, concealed in casks of butter. The butter casks were- received at the Custom-house by Mazzinchi. amid from thence conveyed to his house, at Tratelkita 'agnate, Stepney. There were five transactions of this kind between July, 1824, and January, 1825. The ,quantity of coralsso fraudulently imported was between 7,000 and B,ooolruncet. and the amount of duty of which the Crown was thus defrauded was 4761. The transactions were successful up to the latter period, but 4 long as the pitcher had gone safely to the well, it catne home broken at last." In Jan. 182.5. the fraud was dis covered by the awkwardness of a revenue officers. Whilst in the act of weighing one of the casks, it slipped from' his hands, and tell upon the ground. The head came loot, and the heaviest part of the contents fell to the 'ground: This was a tin case fitted with coral,. which led to the discovery of the whole transaction. The butter; was directed to Mazzinchi, and he having extracted the coral, disposed of it for the defendant. He wag aware,l that as Mamenchi(the principal witness for the Crown), was as guilty as the defendant, he was, therefote, unde serving of credit; but, in such cases. it was impossible' to procure any other evidence thin that of - persons who had been guilty themselves; and, in the present cast, be would be'corroboiated in all the material points by other evidence, to which no such objectons could lie, as that which may be urged against Mazzinchie . Joseph Maizinchi was then called, and examined b Mr. Clerk.—ls a dealer in cheese, oil, paste, Ike. Mr. JARVIS, for the defendant, here asked the wit*" iftbere were nit it suit pending against him foralar 1,6001. being the vice bt this eery coral, rind if he bad not been arrested for this demand. The witness halving replied in the affirmative, Mr. It 111/13 4jected to the reception of his testimony,. ' as the fact of a eardict being given against the defendant in this case, would be an answer to the action which he, bad instituted against the witness in another Court? The CUM' BA RQI4 over-ruled the objection, and the examination proceeded. Witness knows else defendant; has known him for five years; and had frequent deal-, ings with him during that time on commission. The defendant dealt, ,attiongst other things, in coral, which. witness soldjce him at 2i,per cent. This con nection existed for seem or eight-months before the smuggling commenced. Knows a man of the na of Biambani ; became acquainted with him at Amy's.- dam. In 1824, Brambani came to London, a lieu witness met him. In consequence of something ',which passed between witness and Brambani,.witness told defendant, that a friend of his had come from Holland, who said that it was a foolish thing to pay so large a duty lot the importation of coral, when it might, with perfect safety, be smuggledinto the country. Gnecco said,, [ that he expected two cases' of coral from Genoa in a Sew days, and that, .according to the scheme prpposed ley Brambaqi, it could be reshipped from bond, and seinspoited is the manner agreed upon. The coral ante from Genoa in July, 1824. and was, in a day oe tiro after. its arrival, teshipped and consigned to Bram- , bani, at Rotterdam. In August followiag, the witness lepeeised four casks of butter, sent by Brambaisi. from otherlinghen, in Holland; witness received them at tin' Custom House Docks, and having paid all expenses, exiled them to his house at Stepney. There were two ,bunches of coral in each of them. The total was in 'bladders. wrapped round with cotton, and sunk into die middle of the batter. in the afternoon witness went to the defendant, and told him that be bad received the ht bunches; witty** having no scales of hir me% de• ant sent his porter to bring the e , sal to his (de teadant's) house to be there weighed. The parcel con tained about 68 ounces; witness next day took it to ' tikewws. Ceti and Co. fled Lina-street, liolbosa, and 'sold it to them at 4s. 6d. an ounce. The witness then detailed a variety of similar transactions, with erhich ja is unnecessary to trouble our readers; they only varied in the circumstances of time and place. Cross-examined by Mr. JARVIS—Never had the honour to be a gens 'farmer ender Napoleon. An in formation has been filrd against him by the Orman for the transaction in question, and he c..nsented to a Ter diet for 2001. which..he has never been called upon to , pay ; set up in business with a capital of sixpence ; has been always, to the best of his knowledge, an honest man. Several witnesses were then called, who proved some formal and supplemental parts of the case, as the im• portation and exportation of the coral ; the connection between the defendant and witness during the periA in which the speculation was cartied on, and the seiz ure which led to the ultimate discovery of the whole transaction. Mr. JARYIS stated the case for the defence, and the SOLICITOR•WWZRAL replied on the pact of the Crown. The Learned Gentleman, in answer to the reflections which had been cast by Mr. Jarvis, upon the testimony of Mazzinchi, produced a remittitur, by which the Crown Mad released him from all the penal ties to which he had been rendoed liable, in conse lisence of the base which lie had in the transactions, and of the verdict to which he had consented. Upon inspection of this document by Mr. Jarvis. it, appeared to be signed by Sir JAMS Scarlet; and to have issued on Saturday last, _ _ , . r The LORD CHIRP BARON having summed np the evidence, the Jury retired for about twenty minutes, and found a verdict for the Crown; but Of- Foreman moat earnestly recommended the defendant to the mercy of the Law Officers of his Majesty. It was at last agreed, between the Counsel on both sides, that the defendant should pay, in atonement of his offence, 4001. to the Gown. ' 4111*11 . V C ENSUING OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. For several years past there has not been a cotres ponding Session whete the calendar has presented so large a number of prisoners for trial, as the following statement exhibits, viz. -386, down to Saturday night, excepting those who have been admitted to bail ; 70 ot this number are charged with offences which affect life, and many others are committed upon serious accltsa tions.—The summary statement of the various offences with which the prisoners stand charged is as follows: Murder, 5 ; burglary, 15; rape, I ; forgery, 5; uttering forged notes, 1 ; highway robbery, 10 ; housebreaking, 3 ; coining, 3 ; stealing in dwelling houses, ; horse stealing, 1 ; sheep Keating, I ; robbing a mall coach,l ; manslaughter, 1 ; stealing and secreting a letter when employed at the Post-office, 2 ; embezzling, 8 ; steal ing from the person, 74 ; receiving stolen goods, 9; selling counter feit coinot ; larcenies, 219; perjury, 1 ; fraud, I. Total. 386. Ot the above number, there are 80 city prisoners, and 306 aho have bees committed by the County Magis trates. It is supposed that before the Grand Jurors break up, the number for trial will be augmented to 500. Sizty:seven Bills received the Royal Ascent, by Commission, on Monday, and have thus become Acts of Parliament) and a trifling addition to the ^ Statutes a Large: , • MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Yesterday these Sessiontcommenced before F. COX sT, Esq. Chairman, and a full Bench of Magistrates. The Grand . Jury found a true bill against Wm. Sheen, for murder. Paitiet Carr was indicted for assaulting the wife of a ' soldier at Hounslow, who swore that the defendant, tak ing advantage of the absence of her husband, who was l in his (defendant's) employment, took indecent liberties with hei person, and throwing her on the bed was about to accomplish his purpose, when her husband came to the door outside. She had screamed out at first; but she made no noise when her husband was heard out side the door, becau-e she was fainting. She admitted that she made no complaint of this outrage until her husband left the employment of the defendant in about ten days after it had occurred, because, she said, 4 , she was not able to go about." She drank tea, however, with the defendant on the very next evening. Verdict, Not Gritty. An officer of Worsfs;p-street, named Fitzpatrick, was convicted of imprisoning a respectable man in the watchhouse all night, because, having a bundle of linen in his hand, which be was carrying . from his washer woman's late at night, he was unable to say whether c r not the articles had any marks on them, and was also unable to tell the number of his watch, which the de fendant took from him. It was in vain that the prose .cutor referred him to a house where he might inform himself satisfactorily as to who and what he was ; the defendant refused to call there, and consequently the prosecutor was compelled o spend the night in the watchhouse; and so much didbe suffer from the cold, that the watchhouse keeper was induced to take him out to another place once or twice to warm hies, elf. The CUAIRMAN expressed his regret to see the son of en old and respected servant of the public conduct him self so improperly. lie deferred pronouncing judg ment at present. A true bill was found by the Grand Jury against Mr. Q. Pitt, of the Adeliki, fora misdemeanour, in oh structing the foot-way An Covent-Garden, by erecting bustiags thereon. LOSS OF THIRTEEN LIVES ON TUE SHANNON. Twenty-eve persons embarked in a sail-boat, near Beath Castle, in this river, on Wednesday, to collect sea weed In the neighbouring Weeds, for the purpose of manure. When heavily laden, and shout to put of, stveral of those on board topk alarm at the angry aspect of the waves, which, ruffled by the tempest, lobed the surrounding shore with unsparing fiery. An albwise riIOVIDINCI prompted the idea of danger; they disembarked, sod left their ill-fated corn panions (eleven men and two women) with a determination Doe to encounter the passage home. The frail vessel was so over loaded by the anxiety or avgiee of the owner to secure a large cargo, that she absolutely fouirlered in the coming tide, which, rushing like a torrent, overwbeffeed her in an blowy', within a fen yards of tench leaving a wide blank s diversified only by the evan escent prospect of thirteen Ism * Itnitigs straggling between this world and tisc nut. The agonizing cries of the wretched sufferers were hurried, on the blast towards shore, where their distracted frienda; unable to afford' assistance, gazed Intently en the spectacle of life and death. But the almost letoterable suspense existed for a moment 0n1y..-idle was the contest of weak mortality, when an immense surge choked the last effort of expiring nature. In the Spate of fifteen minters, their bodies, borne on the bosom of the sullen waves, rolled . slowly and heavily to the Dearest shoot where the receding waters left sham without a spark of life, to birwlinly clasped in the fond embrace of despairing friends and kindreikeshorie bitter cries, not even the howling blast, could sinotber.—This depkrable record of calamity has plunged many families Into thedepth of sorrow and distress • in one instance, nine children have become destitute orfeses.

The mandamus recently obtained from the Court of King's Bench by Mr. Sheriff WINCHESTER, to te sworn into the office of Alderman for the Ward of Viotry, or for the Court to shew cause to the contrary, was laid before the Court. Mr. WINCHESTER attending, applied to be admitted, and sworn. A petition from EDWARD ARCHER WILDE, Esq. to be sworn in as Alderman of the Ward, was presented.

FATAL ACCIDENT.--About six 0 CIOCk on Friday 1 afternoon, Captain Rosaarsow, of the 3.3c1 Regiment, mounted on a spirited horse, came along at a smart trot, and on taking the turn into George.square rather sharply, the horse fell, and pitched his rider on the forehead, who was instantly carried into the shop of Dr. MOPIAT, when it was found that his skull was fractured; everything was done that human skill coeld suggest; he survived only half an bout. The conduct of the horse attracted the notice of the spectators of the un fortunate event, it stood wit► its eyes fixed on its fallen master as if it was aware of his sufferings and approach. jig end.—Edhelsurgh Carrara, May 28. Wednesday as four Gentlemen and two seamen were sailing near Corran ferry, their boat was upset by a sudden squall, and unfortunately two of the party— namely, Mr. Maclachlan, of Arivalan near Fort William, and Mr. Rankin, from Oban, were doomed to a watery grave. This melancholy event is rendered more afflict. ing, inasmuch as Mr. Maclachlan was just on the eve of marriage with a young and accomplished Lady, to: whom he has been long and affectionately attached. Wednesday evening last. as Mr. Issas SHACKLE TOW, of Groves, near Heptonstall, inthe West Riding of Yorkshire, was s;tting at home, about Init./Past nine in' , the evening, conversing upon ordinary subjects with * neighbour who happened to be there, six men entered,' and asked if he had nor a cow to sell?
