Mr. HART sheered cause.---He commenced thy reading. the affidavit of Mrs. Mart-Anne Clarke, sihichaet Oath, that, on the Stsd of June last, Mr. Currie bad arrested her for a debt of 4240, at the suit of the Plaintiff, Mr. Abbott, a haberdasher. in Oxford-street, - with whom she had dealt for some years. That she Was by Mr. Carrie taken to , the hdAriess of Mr. Sidney, an Officer of the Sheriff of Middlesex, in Chancery-lane. That there Mr. Currie offered to permit her to go at large, provided - she placed in his hands a sum sufficient to cover the debt, which, by a written memorandum, he agreed to give op to Mrs. Clarke, the moment a regular ba3. l .sond was executed. In consequence, she placed in Mr. Curries hands two Bank of England Notes, for £5O each, and a promissory note for £2OO. The' bail-bond having been executed (her securities being Mr. Charles Harrison, her Attorney, and a Gentle man of the name of Houghton), application was made to Mr. Sidney, who held the memorandum agreed to by Mr. Currie, to give it up, which he did, on the receipt of six guineas from Mr. Harrison, as • the sum due to him from the transaction. Mrs. Clarke then wrote an older on the back of tbe me morandum, desiring Mr. Currie to deliver the Bank Notes for £lOO, and - the promissory note for £2OO, to Mr. Harrison, as her agent. This ) however, Mr. Currie had refused to do, on the ground, that when be was attending his business at Clifford's Inn, in the City of London, on the 9th of July, an attach ment had been served on him, at the suit of Rice Ives, a wineonerchant, for the purpose of attaching the sum of £5B, due by Mrs. Clarke to hilt', it being known that lie (Currie) bed money in his hands be longing to her ; and that, on the 16th of the same month, a second attachment, for securing the sum cf £267, was served on him, at the suit of Messrs. Daniel and Francis Wright, upholsterers, of Oxtord street, alledged to be due to them by the said Mary. Anne Clarke. The case of Abbott and Clarke having . been removed by Habeas Corium to the Court of, King's Bench, the Defendant was permitted to pot inatommon bad; and she now deposed, in her affi davit, that this tact being known to Mr. Currie, he had acted in collusion -with Mr. Ives and Messrs. , Wright; that in consequence of such collusion, they attachments issued, which formed the pretext for de. taining her property. In confirmation of this state.' sneot, she introduced a story which she had !ward, and which she verily believed to be true, namely,. • that Ives had called on Mr. Currie, where he was =soaking his pipe in the neighbourhood of the New.. Road, in which he resided, and stated, that his ham*: was “ Rice Ives ;" ..n which Mr. Currie observed, Then you area triend of Mr. Abbott, and want to be paid from the property which I have in my pos.' session belonging to Mrs. Clarke." That after this, they retired together, and ~h e plan wail laid by which . her property might be kept from her. Mr Han then read Mr. C. Harrison's affidavit, in support of the former. it. related principally to the application glade to Currie for the property, and expressed the deponent's firm belief, that Messrs. Ives, Wright,' and Optic, had acted in collusion ; and that at the time the attachment was served on Currie, be bad slot the property about him. In answer to these aifi. davits, Mr. Hart begged the attention of the Court to those of Mr. Currie, Mr. Goold, his assistant, and of Messrs. Ives and Wright. The first was the most material, and set forth, that the deponent had, On the 23d of June, arrested Mrs. Mary-Anne Clarke, tinder the process of that Honourable Court; that he was proceeding . with her, in a hackney-coach, to the house of Mr. Wake. an Officer of the Court, when she requested him to take her to Mr Sidney, in Chancery.lane, with whom she was acquainted.— He did so; and Mr. Sidney blamed him for carrying her there, as the process under which she had been' i arrested having issued from a jurisdiction different I from that to which he belonged, he could not give a receipt for her person. Deponent observed, that he was sure Mr. Abbott, the Plaintiff, would willingly come to any faifcornpromise with the Defendant; but she said, she would not enter into any compromise with I him.—Mr. Sidney then asked her, whether she had a sufficient sum of money to cover the debt sworn to, and £lO more, under the act of Parliament, by which she might be suffered to go at large, and the security might be returned, when she had procured bail ?--a To this she answered, thai: she had only got £lOO in Bank of England notes, and a promissory note of Mr. Luke Naylor .for £2OO. This Deponent con. . rented to receive as security, and he signed a memo.: random, as he supposed at the time, to give up the property, when bail was justified. On the 9th ofj July, an attachment was served on him in Clifford'a', Inn, at the suit of Mr. Rice Ives, to secure the sum of £5B, alledged to be due to him by Mrs. Clarke. That when Mr. Harrison applied to him to give up the promissory note, &c. he stated this fact as motive for his refusal—at the same time observing, that he would go to Mr. Yoxley, the Attorney of Mr. Ives, and if that gentleman informed him that he might restore the property to Mrs. Clarke's Attorney, with out risk, he was ready to do so. That he did ac. • cordingly apply to Mr. Yoxley, stating what Mr. - Harrison had said to him, namely, that under the circumstances, the debt having been contracted in the county of Middlesex, the money was not attach able in the City, and requested his advice as to the way in which he should proceed ; when Mr. Yoxley • informed hint, that if be gave up the property, it ' would be - at his peril. Mr. Ives having afterwards • threatenedio proceed against him, unless he paid the • .sum of £4B, constituting his debt, into the hands of Mr. Yoxley, his Attorney, be had been induced so to do. The balance remaining in his hands of the bank notes was now. 441 ; the promissory note he also retained—and this he did, because oa the 16th of July,•-temeo'nd attachment , for £267 was served on him, at the suit .of Messrs. Wright. Deponent declared, that, at the time the attachment was served on him is Clifford's Iw o he had the two hank Motes . . _ -• • - and tise - premissery wottinitiswetet.

A. CLAARt. • . 'The affidavit denied, in :unqualified terms, the charge of Deponent's having acted e ollusitely, or of having reetived, or expectiug to reetiee, any profit •or emolument from the transaction—aud concluded by referring to the unimpi_ached character, which, 'for nine years, he had borne as an officer of the Court. • ... , . The affidavits of Mr.. Ives, and of Messrs. Wright, disproved, in the strongest" ;terms. the existence of anY.colitision between them and Mr. Currie. Ha'aing gone through the ;I thJavits,. Mr: HART proceeded to observe, that if, on' the one hand,. be extremely regretted that a charge of so serious a na..l tare should be urged against any officer of that Court, he, on the other, kit a great deal of pleasure on fi nd- 1 ing every point"contained in that charge refuted bri the party accused. He-contended that this case did not a ail come under Lord Ellenborough's Act, as his Learned Friend seemed to suppose. By that act, a person who did not find. it convenient.to give bail immediately, wa► permitted to deposit a sum equal' to the debt sworn to, and £lO over, which the Le gislature, in its wisdom, esteemed sufficient to cover the costs, in consideration of which the party was per- Mitted to go at large. It was, bowei;er, provided, that the sum should be paid into Court, whence "it might afterwardi be drawn, on bail being found,' as motion being made for that purpose.. ' Butliere the property was depositell in the hands of Mr.', Currie, and was, to all intents and purposes, attach. able. He looked upon Mr. Currie's conduct as blameable, in signing a paper, the exact contents of which he did not know ; hut it did appear, that he had subscribed it, supposing it to be an agree ment to give up the property when bail was fter. feaed, and not merely when a ball-bond was matted.— He would not trouble the Court with an examination of the law Lid down by Mr. Yoxley—ehether it was or was not correct, it dui 11 , 1 alter the features of the case, as far as the intentions ta Mr.Currir were called in question. It did appear that he made every exer tion to procure proper information as to the coarse he should pursue—and that lie acted in the way he had done, from a conviction that he was proceeding justly and legally—and that, it he bad acted in a different manner, he would himself have become accountable to Messrs. Ives and Wright. With respect to the al legation, that he was collusively engaged with these gentlemen, it seethed to be most unfounded. Not a shilling of profit er emolument had been received by him, in consequence of the transaction. The fact was, that the case having been moved into the King's Bench, and Mrs. Clarke being a lady of very great celebrity, the circumstances of the deposit came to the ears of Messrs Tees and Wright,. who played, what might be termed, the ;harp game, and bad re. course to the speediest means of recovering their debts. Under these circumstances, he trusted the rule would be discharged, with costs. Mr. AGA li submitted that she rule ought to be made absolute, as nothing, either in tact or in law, had been adduced, to overturn the statements contained in the affidavits, on which it had been obtained. The Learned Gentleman then argued-Ist, That the re fusal to give up the property Was contrary to the ex press stipulation of the memorandum signed by Mr. Currie-24, That, as it was deposited whit him fur a specific legal purpoie, it mast be viewed as being in the hands of the law, and, therefore, 11 ,it attacha ble on any account-3d, That as the whole of the transactions relating to the debts 'for which it was at tached, had originated in the county of Middlesex, (where Mr. Currie was also resident) an attachment Could not issue against the property in the city of London—and 4th, That :aloe ing the attachment to be legal as Mr. Currie bad the property in his hands, after the Court of King's Bench had liberated Mrs. Clarke, on common bail ; yet, as his so retaining that property was occasioned by his own criminal negli gence, in not giving it up, immediately after com mon bail was admitted, he ought to suffer for his misconduct. The Learned CHAIRMAN was of opinion, that it was the duty of Mr. Currie to have given up the pro perty, the moment a Court of competent jurisdiction had liberated the Defendant on common bail. The fact, however, was, that he had not done this. The Court, therefore, in its decision, must be guided by 1 the custom which regulated the issuing of attach ments. When an individual had procured judgment against another, and learned that the debtor had pro perty in any particular place; he was at liberty to attach it. This was done for the - purpose of securing the person of the debtor, and could not operate to hisinjury ; because, on giving bail for his appearance the property was again released. In this case, there fore, where Mr. Currie had evidently acted from a feeling, that if he gave up the property be would be , liable to the debts, the Court could not call on him to pay over the 4300; £5B of that sum, it appeared, had already been handed to Mr. Yoxley, the attorney 1 of Mr. Ives, and the remainder was detained in con i sequence of a second attachment. The Court were the less willing to interfere in the manner requested, I because, it the defendant gave security for the debts, i the property-would be restored, and no injury would ' be inflicted on her—but, on the other hand , it the f- rule were made absolute, a great deal of injury might be done to the other parties. As the Court was, however, of opinion, that the property should have been given up, when common bail was- admitted, although they would discharge the rule, it should not be with cw.s. . Mr. AGAR asked the Learned Chairman's opinion as to the circumstance of the propertrbeing in the hands of the law, and therefore not attachable ? Mr. RIITNOLDs said, if an notion were brought to try the validity, of the attachment, therfact referred to by Mr. Agar would be of importance; but. in the pre sent instance, the Court could nut entertain it.--Rule discharged. t .t. 4' • Monday evening a gentleman was robbed by a gang of pickpockets, Who. trequent Gracecburch-street, of a gold watch, value 40 guineas.

Ori account of the great number of years when he stated the circumstance to have taken place, and all the parties who could prove any of the circumstances being dead, no notice could be taken of his confession ; and he was advised, as the best atonement he could make for the crime he I said he had committed, to live a sincere life of repels: tance for the remainder of his days, which he pros mised to dn. He had no appearance of insanity. ~ UNiON HALL.—John Smith was yesterday broogle up by Friend, the night constable of St. °laves, charged, by a respeitable cheesemonger in the bo rough, in whose eM'erloy he lived as shopman, with having robbed him of various sums of money taken in the silop. The prosecutor stated, that he had for some time past missed money, which he could not account for ; at lengthhis suspicions attached to the prisoner. He could not, however, detect him ;—be 'consulted Friend on the subject ; and iropursuance of a plan agreed on between them, Friend went to the shop early yesterday morning, and purchased 1 goods to the amount co thirty shillings, paying the 1 prisoner for them with si:ver, which he had previously marked. Soon afterwards the prosecutor, as had been agreed on between them, examined the till and missed mane of the marked money. Friend was sent for, and on searching the prisoner it was found in his possession. He acknowledged having taken it, but said it was his first offence. He was fully - cons . mined for trial. GUILDRALL.•-•Mr. SW, the landlord of the Nay's Head public house, Aldersgate-street, was brought up, charged with assaulting James Gray, a broker,' who went to the house ot afir,,Stott, to make a seizure' for taxes, allOged to be due for ri :louse formerly sna cupisd by Mr. Stott. Upc , n investigation of the case. however, it turned out that Gray had no authority to seize, and that he bad very much misconducted hails self.; under these circumstances, Alderman Cox dis missed the complaint. HATTON GASMIN..--A private of the Ist regiment I of Foot Guards, named Mama, Cawthorn, was on Thursday brought before Mr. Leacii, the Sitting Ma gistrate, in custody ot Reid the officer, under the tollowing charge :—Mr. Essam, of Shoe-larse, a free man of the City of London, and a Member of the ; Corps of Loyal Engineers, was sitting in his working dress at a public house in the same lane, and rather inebriated, when the prisoner and another entered the house, and after conversing with Mr. Essam on military affairs for some time, handed to him a slid ling, which the prosecutor jestingly asked him for.— ' The prisoner claimed the prosecutor as enlisted with him, which was resisted ; and an altercation ensued, which roused the prosecutor from his intoxication, and he effected his escape into the first floor of his own dwelling house, to which the prisoner followed him, forcing his way up stairs, where the prosecutor' 1 sheaved his uniform, and a copy of his freedom • of tbo I City, upon which th,prieoner seized i him by the collar and struck him several violent blows on the head. Pending the fight, a lodger in the upper part of the prosecutor's house, hearing the noise ran down 1 stairs, and received several blows from the prisoner, buy with much difficulty forced him out of the house. The prisoner was committed for want of bail. Yesterday two men, of the names of Shaw and Man/old, with several others, were brought up, and underwent examination, charged with unlawfully assembling at a house in King -street, St. Luke's, for . the purpose of bear baiting. The officers who ap. prehended them stated, that, by information, they went to the above premises, where the prisoners and a great many others were assembled, with a number of dogs, ready to begin the sport. They took the two former into custody, being the owners of the bear, and their dogs. The charge being made out ' against Shaw and Marisfi4d, they x .e.s. committed as rogues and vagabonds; the ethers admitted to bail. CLIFFORD'S MURDER.--In a private examination which took place before Mr. TCRTON, on Thursday, additional evidence was adduced to establish the guilt of Leary, but not a single circumstance came out which went to implicate the unfortunate Mrs. Clifford, whose conduct seems to have been called in question solely by her own imprudence, in' telling a lie for the purpose of disguising her impro.! per connexion with Clifford. When the wretched woman was visited by several respectable females for the purpose of affording her relief as the wife of ' her murdered protector, it was not surprising that ' , site bad not fortitude sufficient boldly to confess that she was an abandoned woman, who had deserted her husband, and fled to the arms of one who was dispo- sed to treat her with more kindness. Neither was it extraordinary that she should have endeavoured to conceal the fact of her possessing a small horde, des tined for a 4 , rainy day," when her ignorance might • have induced her 'to think that such a confession would perhaps be the means of preventing her (mom receiving that sort of pecuniary assistance, which she foresaw her necessities would require. It is a fact well known, too, that among almost all orders of married Irishwomen,. they save what they call a ' :tea purse, unknown to their husbands, the possession of which they would esteem It a disgrace to confess. These two facts seem to be the only just grounds for imputing to. Mrs. Clifford any participation in the ' crime of Leary, save that monster's own accusation, f which few would be disposed to credit. A priest has not yet been suffered to visit this man, but when such a communication shall take place, there is little' doubt that the real state of the case will be divulged. A final 'examination, in private, will take place on Yhursday float, of all parties, till which time it would be premature to come itiany - Conclusion,'vrith respect to the guilt of Mrs. Clifford. ~r • ... • Whir/Ft Atin) LSAYIXNHALt MAIM.
