THE AUTHOR OF " LACON." It is melancholy to reflect that men of the greatest genius are frequently the victims of their own wayward ness, vices, or indiscretions. The most brilliant talents are too often eclipsed and rendered useless to society by errors of conduct. There is, perhaps, no human being now living who affords a more striking example of the truth of these remarks than the Rev. C. C. Colton, late rector of Kew, and author of one of the most valuable works in the English language, exclusively of many other scattered and fugitive productions. This gentle man, it may be remembered, disappeared under very mysterious circumstances about the time when the mur der of Weare by Thurtell and his associates caused such an extraordinary sensation in the public mind. It was well known that the Rev. Mr. Colton was in the habit of carrying large sums of money about his person, and that he was not unaccustomed to visit those dens of iniquity commonly called " hells," in some of which he had met with John Thurtell. These circumstances, and the re- ports which obtained circulation of that criminal's mur derous plans, induced a very general suspicion that the reverend gentleman had been inveigled and destroyed by Thurtell and his companions. Thurtell, however, on being questioned a short time prior to his execu tion on the subject of Mr. Colton's remarkable absence, denied all knowledge of what had become of him, a de nial that turned out to be perfectly true. Mr. Colton, by gambling and other extravagances, had become involved in debt to a very large amount, principally for jewellery, and unable to meet the demands of his creditors, he em barked with the utmost secrecy for the United States. He continued in America for a considerable time, and afterwards returned to Europe, but not to England. He took up his abode at Paris, and there became known to the frequenters of No. 9, and other gaming saloons of the Palais Royal. So successful was he in his speculations, that in the course of a year or two he acquired as much as five and twenty thousand pounds sterling, and happy would it have been for him if he had then forsworn gambling for ever, and invested his money, as he often talked of doing, in the American funds. He collected a considerable number of valuable paintings ; and his lodgings in the Palais Royal, though the interior suffi ciently marked the eccentric character of the owner, af forded a great treat to the admirers of the finer arts.— But inveterate attachment to the gaming table rendered him some time since a beggar. He became the victim of a conspiracy, and the fancied security with which he con ducted his operations was the fatality by which he was ruined. Outlawed in England he made a vain attempt to prevent the deprivation of his living at Kew. He lost it by a decree of the ecclesiastical court. He is now liv ing at Paris in the most pitiable circumstances—a melan choly example of the vice of gaming. With a mind emi nently endowed by nature with the stores of inexhausti ble learning—with powers of conversation of the highest order —with talents and acquirements fitted to adorn any rank or station—he now prowls for a subsistence in the vilest haunts of the French metropolis.—Northern John Bull. An attempt was made on Wednesday night, by some of the prisoners in Newgate, to escape from the gaol, by cutting up their straw mats, of which it was in tended to make ropes of sufficient strength for the pur pose ; and these were to be thrown across the outward wall, by means of a piece of lead, and held, of course, by persons in waiting. The prin,,however, was disclosed to Mr. Wontner, the Governor, in sufficient time to pre vent its execution, and information of the attempt having been conveyed to the proper authorities, Mr. Sheriff Ward, and Peter Mallard, Esq. a magistrate for Middle sex, went round to the different wards of the prison, and, in conjunction with the Governor, means were adopted to prevent a repetition of the attempt. On Wednesday an inquest was held before Mr. Stir ling, coroner for Middlesex, at the Sun, public-home, Lisson-grove, on view of the body of Mr. Jeremiah Wil son, who committed suicide by hanging himself. Mr. Frederick Pillon stated that he lodged in the house of the deceased, who was a baker in an excellent business, and was a married man with a large family. For some months past the deceased had been in a very dejected state of mind, the cause of which witness was unac quainted with. Several of the relatives of the deceased had been similarly affected. On Monday afternoon wit ness was alarmed by violent screams from Mrs. Wilson. He ran ont and met her in a pitiable state of agitation. She exclaimed, " Oh, for God's sake, Mr. Pillon, run up stairs to the bed-room, my husband has hanged him self." Witness did so, and discovered the deceased sus pended to a rail of the bedstead. He instantly cut him down, but life was quite extinct, and medical aid, which was instantly procured, was of no avail. The widow was stated to be in a condition of mind bordering on phrenzy, and the jury declined wounding her feelings further by calling her before them. Several witnesses were examined, whose evidence satisfied the jury of the state of mind of the unfortunate man, end a verdict of " Temporary derangement"was returned. LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, MAY 7. In consequence of his Majesty's birth-day having been ordered to be kept to-day, his Honour and the King's Counsel appeared in their full Court dresses. MORDAN V. PULLEN.-EVER-POINTED PENCILS. Mr. LOVATT applied for the dissolution of the injunc tion granted in this case, restraining the defendant from selling boxes containing black lead pencil points, with cards and labels, similar to those used by the plaintiff, with the words " Mordant and Co.'s patent pencils" on them. The Learned Counsel made the present applica tion on the ground that the plaintiff had no patent for these pencils, although the public were led to believe so ; the fact was the patent extended only to the cases. The plaintiff having no patent, the defendant had as much right as any person to avail himself of the advantage. Many others had resorted to this course, and why should not he ? The VICE-CHANCELLOR considered the Learned Counsel's argument amounted to this, that A might pick B's pocket, because C and D had done it before. The COURT, after hearing Mr. KNIGHT and Mr. GIRDLESTONE, jun. on the part of the plaintiff, and Mr. LOVATT in reply, dismissed the motion with costs, con sidering the course adopted by the defendant to be highly injurious to the plaintiff. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 7. At the sitting of the Court this morning, Lord Low ther, Lord Amherst, Lord Howe, and Sir Herbert Tay lor, took the Oaths of Allegiance, as prescribed by the Act of last Session, for persons holding certain Offices ; and it being the day appointed for the celebration of his Majesty's birth-day, the Judge and King's Counsel ap peared in full robes. CARLISLE V. DUNN AND OTHERS. On the case being called on, Mr. Carlile addressed the court in person, and said— My lords, I have to apply for a rule to show cause why tho verdict in this case (which was for the defendants) should not be set aside, and a new trial granted. The grounds on which I move are not of a novel kind. The first is that of omission of direction of the learned judge ; and the second, that of a commission of direction. Those two grounds I consider amount to a misdirection. The second point on which I move is, that I have suffered egregious wrong from the manner in which the de fendant's counsel conducted his case. It was, Sir, con ducted so that I ought to have been heard in reply, or the learned judge ought to have interfered on my behalf. Lord TEN DERDEN—You should state the nature of the action. Mr. Carlile—lt was an action brought by me against the proprietors of a Nottingham and Newark paper, for having published a letter bearing the signature of a person named Gilbert, which letter contained a libel upon my character. I am furnished with a list of cases, where verdicts have been set aside by a wrong impression hav ing been produced on the minds of the jury. Lord Tut Teunzw—You should state what I omitted to tell the jury, and also what I improperly told them. I consider in this case it was not an unusual direction, but that I left it as 1 do in all other cases of libel. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—We know nothing of the omis sions or commissions without you inform us. Mr. Carlile —The omission I complain of was this, after reading the publication his Lordship left it to the Jury to say whether it had a tendency to injure me in the town of Nottingham Lord TENTERDEN—No, Mr. Carlile, not in the town of Nottingham, but whether it was calculated generally to injure your moral character. Mr. Carlile—All the newspaper reports agree with what I say. I was well received, my Lords, in Nottingham before the publication of the letter, but afterwards I re ceived insults. I have a strong ground of complaint of the insufficiency of the direction to the Jury, and the de fendant's counsel took an unfair advantage by alluding to titles of books, and the manner in which he did it must have been perceived by the Learned Judge. He repre sented the books as too vile to be read, without introduc ing them to the Jury. From declaring myself the pub lisher of those books I never did shrink, nor never will; and I considered the great merit of my answer to the charges made against me by the defendants would be to show the merits of those books, or at least to put their merits to the trial. I should (bad I been allowed) satisfied your Lordships, however you might differ on some points, that they are not books too vile to be read ; but I had no opportunity of removing the impression this as sertion had on the minds of the Jury. I would refer your Lordships to many cases in support of my application. I would now positively point out the case of Hare v. Wil son, which was an action brought against a newspaper for publishing a report of some proceedings in the Insolvent Debtors' Court, and a verdict given for the defendant. Ap plication was made for a new trial, on the ground on which I now move, when Lord Tenterden said the Judge ought not to have left it to the Jury to say whether it was a libel or not, without first telling them his own impression, and a new trial was granted. Never was stronger lan. guage, or language more calculated to injure the feelings of an individual, than that of which I complain. Much milder words have been deemed libellous ; but I have been unfairly dealt with. This Court, however, I am con vinced, will not allow my character to be blasted, without affording me redress. I could explain, were It now ne cessary, in language not offensive to your Lordship, the objections to the works which the defendant's Counsel raised, without producing an unfavourable impression against me. _Mr. Justice BA YLEY—That .is not necessary. We can only attend now to what was given in evidence on the trial. The Court consulted together for some time, after which Lord TENTERDEN said—You may take a rule to show cause, Mr. Carlile.—Rule Nisi granted. Mr. Carlile bowed to their lordships, and immediately left the Court. This being the last motion for new trials, the Court pro ceeded with arguments on pleas and demurrers, none of which possessed anw public interest. LAMENTABLE OCCURRENCE..--011 Wednesday last, a respectable ropemaker at Leven met his death in a most distressing manner. While attending his work, a strap connected with a windlass used for twisting cables, having got out of its proper position, came with such force against his leg as instantly amputated it from his body. me un fortunate man was otherwise so severely injured, as to occasion his death next morning. A most melancholy and fatal accident occurred on the road between Yeovil and Martock, on Friday last. As Mr. Chaffey, jun. a respectable surgeon, of the latter place, was driving his lady and infant child in a gig, the horse started at some object in the road, became unma nageable, broke the traces, and ran the vehicle against a .heap of stones, in consequence of which it was quiet, and the whole party at once thrown out. Mr. Chaffey, fall ing on his head, fractured his skull so severely that be died on the spot ; but his lady and child fortunately escaped with some alight injuries. —Devises Gazette. INTERESTING TRIAL FOR ASSA ULT. A very singular case was tried on Friday, at the Quarter Sessions in Belfast, before John Curry, Esq. Assistant Barrister. Lieut. Colonel M'Leod was indicted for having, on the night of the 16th April, assaulted Jacob Knowles ; and Jacob Knowles was indicted for having, on the same night, assaulted Lieutenant-Colonel M'Leod. Mr. R. MONTGOMERY said, he was one of the attor neys engaged in this case, in behalf of Mr Knowles.— Colonel M'Leod, the gentleman to whom he was op posed, is barrack-muter in this town, and has only ar rived very lately in this country. On the 16th of the present month, he dined with the mess of the 9th regi ment at present quartered in Belfast. As the Colonel was returning from dinner on that night, to his lodgings, on passing down Donegall-street, a few doors below Talbot-street, he met Mr. Knowles, his (Mr. M.'s) client, with his mother-in-law (Mrs. Gill) leaning upon his arm. Mrs. Gill was leaning on Mr. K.'s right arm, and was next the houses. Immediately after them was Mrs. G.'s maid servant, and a few paces paces farther back, were Mrs. Plunkett, who is daughter to Mrs. Gill, and Mr. Plunkett. Mrs. Plunkett was leaning on her husband's left arm, and was, consequently, next the street. The jury will keep these circumstances in recollection. They were proceeding quietly in this order, when they met two gentlemen ; and imagine what must have been Mrs. Gill's astonishment, when amen who should have been the last to offer an insult to a lady—a man whose profession should have made him the protector of female weakness—when a man in the uniform of an officer dared to lift her veil. There is some excuse for Lieut. Mylne. He was only a boy, and he was intoxicated; and, moreover, he has made the most ample apology for his conduct. Whatever may be his failing, this last was an honourable and virtuous act. It was so viewed, and instead of meeting the reward which his offence merited, he has been forgiven. After lifting Mrs. Gill's veil, the two gentlemen proceeded.— Mrs. Gill immediately thought of her daughter, who was coming up in the rear, and it occurred to her, that some insult might be offered there also. She turned round, in consequence, and what did she see ? Not Mrs. Plun kett's veil lifted—not her bonnet knocked off, but she saw that lady pushed violently to the ground. A woman pushed violently to the ground by an officer ! You may be told that Colonel M'Leod was tipsy. Well, be it so ; but he is not a man in the spring of youth ; he has no luxuriant ringlets adorning his forehead ; he is a man who has seen a good deal of service, and he is, if I am not misinformed, what should have restrained him from such an act—he is a husband and a father. Does Mr. Plunkett resent the act of the Colonel ? No, he does not. He promised that he would not, and there is no prosecution for that assault. The prosecction is for the assault on Mr. Knowles. Mr. Knowles turned back to assist Mrs. P. who was pushed down. There he encountered the Col. who saluted him with a blow. Dora Palmer, the servant' girl, in the mean time, using a woman's privilege, began to bawl loudly for the watch. The watchman came, but I was forced to spring his rattle, and so difficult, was it to arrest this gallant Colonel, that it required several watch men, besides Mr. Knowles, to take him into custody. He was then taken to the Police Office, and there, so violent was he, that it required as many men as could get about him to carry him up stairs. After depositing a sum of money with the night constable, the two gentle men were permitted to retire. On the next day, which was Saturday, both parties attended, and the considera tion of the case was postponed till Monday. On Monday it was agreed, that three gentlemen should be chosen by the aggrieved party, and that the two officers would con sent to pay whatever sum of money these arbitrators might award, and that the money should be paid into our public charities. After consenting to submit the matter to the decision of the persons appointed, and after pro mising. 1 believe, to pay the money, Colonel M'Leod proceeded to lodge examinations against Mr. Knowles for an assault. Witnesses were called to prove the facts stated in Mr. Montgomery's address. Mr. Davison said he was concerned in this cue for Co lonel M'Leod. The Colonel dined at the moss of the 9th Regiment on the evening of the 16th April. He was a stranger in Belfast ; and Capt. Ogle, who was the officer on duty for the day, ordered the mess waiter to follow the Colonel, to see that be might not go astray. lam now bound to pay no regard to Ensign Mylne, which is the name of the young officer who has been so often alluded to here to-day ; he has cut us off, and lam not required to have any respect to his feelings. This young gentle man was intoxicated, and on coming out of the barrack gate, he took hold of Col. M'Leod's arm. The Colonel had not been introduced to him at the mess ; and, there fore, declined allowing him to use such a liberty. The Colonel then proceeded down Donegall-street by himself, but after he had passed York-street this young hero came up, and again took bold of Colonel M'Leod's arm. The Colonel again, as I shall prove to you, told the Ensign to go off, as he did not wish to walk with him. At Tal bot-street, the Colonel endeavoured to get rid of Mylne, and there this unfortunate affair took place. The young man committed the assault, and the Colonel passed on ; but, although my client was too much of a gentleman to admit the familiarities of an intoxicated individual, to whom he had not been introduced, still he was too ge nerous to desert him when exposed to danger. After he had proceeded a short way, he heard some disturbance behind, and on turning, observed the young man on the ground ; he was not aware of the cause which had led to this, but he thought it right to interfere, for the purpose of rescuing the ensign ; he was not aware that there were ladies in the party; but so soon as he learned that there were, he immediately offered them an apology ; that apo logy was accepted; and, gentlemen, there is no charge for assault against them. On stepping forward to rescue the Ensign, he received a blow from Mr. Knowles ; that fact has been denied by Mr. Knowles, but the Colonel will detail to you the circumstances of the case, and admit that he returned the blow. Colonel M'Leod, Mr. Sergeant, and Lyndsay, a police man, were examined in corroboration of the statement of Mr. Davison. His Worship briefly recapitulated the evidence ; and the jury, after consulting together for a few minutes, re turned their verdict, acquitting Mr. Knowles, and finding Col. M'Leod guilty of the assault. His Worship then retired, to consult with the magis trates who were on the bench ; and, after returning into court, declared the sentence of the bench to be, that Col. M'Leod should be confined for one month in the county gaol, and pay a fine of 201. Saturday, it was stated that an application was made, on the part of Col. M'Leod, to the opposite party, to ac quiesce in an application to the bench, for a mitigation of the sentence ; and the proposition was met in a corres ponding spirit, on these conditions—to pay 801. to the prosecutor, and 201. to the King. Mr. Knowles afterwards handed back 301. to Colonel M'Leod, and this unpleasant affair thus terminated. The remaining 501. is to be devoted by Mr. Knowles to cha ritable purposes. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL DEALERS IN BASE C.Olll--ag;r7;;Crosich was charge) .1 selling eight bad shillings, and with being a common uttertt base coin. It ap that Seeger, an inspector of the watch in Alderso,. su g the prisoner,employed a young man, named Zimmensty, to purchase bad money of the prisoner, and gave him two Iva : k„ f shillings for the purpose. Seeger and another officer, named Wari. followed Zimmerman, and saw him meet the prisoner in Littl. Britain, about two o'clock on Thursday. The prisoner hattn; received the two shillings from Zimmerman, went up to a little girl and gave her the money he had received, and received from the I .'o his supply of bad money, whirls he gave to Zimmerman. f„,, women joined the girl, and they, with the girl and the priioner, were secured. Under the frock of the girl, whose name is 31:try Welsh, was found a double leather pocket, which contained 7s. 6,; in Rood money in one part, and in the other fifteen bad half.ctow v , nineteen bad shillings. Crouch and the girl were committL.l and the two women admonished and discharged. BOW-STREET. Yesterday morning, Ford, the gaoler of this office, laid bef o: Mr. Mixestura., for that magi strate ' s signature. an accoun t for th, bread sod cheese with which e had supplied prisoners who kat been committed to the House of Correction. By the prison remits. don, prisoners were not allowed any food until the morning follow. fog their committel, and he was, therefore, obliged to let them has something to keep them from starving. Mr. Bliwsinum. asked, whether a person who had been confirat. in the watch-horse the preceding night, and committed to the iloua of Correction that evening, would not be provided with food by th. governor of the prison ? Ford replied In the negative, and added, that if he were not supply them with food, they would have to remain without emir anything until the next morning. Mr. Alumni:mi. observed that such a regulation was manifest] ) bad, and intimated that he should write to the visiting magistra4 on the subject. Last night Charles Smith, a very well-looking young man, about 123 years of age, the valet of a gentleman named Dymock, who it. sides at No. 24, Lincoln's Inn.fields, was brought to this office by Salmon, one of the principal officers, charged with robbing his ma:. ter of plate, linen, and other articles of considerable value ; and a elderly woman, amed Sarah Tomlinson, claundress, residing Titchbornacourt, Holborn, was charged with receiving the same. knowing them to be stolen, and pawning them. Salmon stated, that he was on duty at the Freemasons' Tavern that morning, and Mr. Dymock came to him, and informed hie:• that he had been plundered by a servant; he accompanied Mr. Dy. mock to his house, and took the prisoner into custody, who admit. ted having taken the property, and given it to the female prism' to pawn. The officer proceeded to the house of the female prisoner, and apprehended her. He also produced 19 duplicates of the pro. pat y which had been pawned, chie fl y at the shop of M r W a l ter ,. in High Holborn. The male prisoner said his master owed him a considerable sett. for wages, and he had no idea of stealing the property, but intended. when his wages were paid, to redeem it and restore it. The female prisoner pretended that she did not know the pro. pert y had been stolen. Mr. Minim cu. ordered the prisoners to be remanded tiU this day, when Mr. Dymock will attend. UNION-HALL EXTRAORDINARY SCINE.--George Drew, the man charged 03 suspicion with stealing plate and various other articles, the pro. petty of Mr. Francis Elk, was brought up for final examin a ti on . When the case was called on, it was stated that Mrs Elie wa not then in attendance, and that she had expressed her d es i re not attend. Her husban d he had sent her to the west end of t! - .: town on business which concerned them both. One of the officirs said he had seen Mrs. Elie at the door of the office a few mina:.. before. The officer was directed to proceed immediately to :i door of the office, and insist upon her attendance ; he did so, :rd in a few moments Mrs. Elie was before the Magistrates. Mr. Elk. said he really thought she had gone to the west end of the town. as he bad directed. The Magistrate then called for the evidence which Mr. Elie 114,1 promised to produce, of the prisoner having been seen carrying some of the complainant's property, without being accompanied by M. Elie. The Police Inspector said that the witness who could hale proad that fact had refused to come forward, unless he was compelled ty force. Mrs. Elie was then questioned by Drew, and in answer to bisques. lions she stated, that Drew had acted throughout with her full con. sent in disposing of the property, and that she had no reason what. ever to find fault with the manner in which he had conducted himself. She then declared, that whatever unfavourable impressio, bad one forth with regard to the manna in which she had acted by employing Drew, she was conscious in her own mind that she ha. not deviated from that rule of conduct which should influence a sit. tuous woman towards her husband. She was compelled to di-po. of her husband's goods, and had employed Drew, thinking he could make a better bargain with the brokers. Mrs. Drew also declined to proceed against her husband on the charge of assault which she had preferred, and said, if he was will. bag, every thing that had occurred should be buried in oblivion. kr. Elie said that be still loved her as his life, and that all pat: differences should be forgotten. He then grasped Mrs. Elie's hard in his own, kissed it with all the rapture of a dusting husband, and both shed tears of delight that so perfect a reconciliation bad taker place between them. Drew, who stood by, stared with astonishment at what was going (onward, and every one seemed pleased that matters had ended as they did. BIRTHS. At Green Park Place.
