Hemy Cepps war inclitted for an atTault upon Jamet Finlay. It appeared that Mr. Finlay, a Ivl , 4tle ton of a pretty good lice, had often been diffinguifh• ed by the Defendant by the name of Hog's lard and Brimftonc t" this name became very ofentive In the Caledonian, but he bore it with patience. The profecutor is a each fpring maker. and on the 24th of Augult 'aft, he went to the Coal Yard public bouts, Drury Lane, after having attended a bean feaft ; here he met the defendant, who made ufe of the ufual falutation ; the profecutor, being well dreffed, was irritated at an expreiGon of the defendant, who obferved that the " pawnbrokers' thelves were empty that day." After fame ionverfation, con-fueled on the part of the defendant with great afperity, he (truck the protecutor on the neck, knotked him down, and thrutt hiejfeeighe finger between the profecutor's ribs. The afrault was proved by three witnelles, and the Jury found the defendant Guilty. The Conti Veni enced him to pay a fine of la jobs Burma was tried on an i , idiement for a vio lent attault upon Bufannah Crippins, a retie/able married woman, aged above so, with an intent to commit a rape on her perfon. The protecutix is the wife of a refpeetabls maw, who refides in ICingaand Road, and the pilaaer is is dealer in timber, and has • timber yard next door to the profectitrix.

She antwered in the negative. He then faid Ire had particular bnfines, and &fired to limb in her in the parlour.

CONSPIRACY. dame 1 Dm, wag criminally indilled for having. with four other plutons, entered into a. eonfpirazy, tinjufily to prevent John Hathaway, a bankrupt, from obtaining his certificate, after having made a full and fair dtfclof►re of his drafts, to the fatisfac tion of the Commilßoners of Bankrupt, and of all ths lawful ereditors. The profecution was opened by Mr. Gteins, and the cafe fisted by Mr. ALIA'', in an addrefs to the Court and Jury, of nearly an hour and a half in con tintrance. _ _ . ..... From CAI Ratement h appeared, that Mr. Hath away had held a confidential lituation in the Bank of England, and was betide engaged in another branch of trade on his private account. That being preffed for money to make up his payments, he was induced to apply to the prifoner, a man of force ce lebrity among the tribe of money lenders, for Ile. commodation ; which, however, he was enabled to obtain, only by fubmitting to a moll exorbitant and ruinous rate of htterell, fuch as it was impoffible for the profits of any trade, however lucrative, long to Main. That the conlignence was, as might have been very raturally expelled, Mr. Hathaway be came a banks upt ; and on furrendering to his credi tors, upon oath, a jail fchedule of all his debts and effees, and the nature of them, making, as he was bound, a full difclolure of every account affeeing his ellate, the mature of (mu past of • debts, due to the prifoner, and another man, named Barrow, ap pearing to be.groftly ufurious, they were of courfe prevented, by the Bankrupt Laws, from proving their claim* under the Statute. The prithrser had endeavoured to induce Mr. Hathaway to snake It falfe reprefentation to the Commiffioners on his be half, by concealing the nature of the real tranfatlions between them, which Mr. Hathaway very properly refufed ; in confequenee of which the prifoner Davis threatened Mr. Hathaway roundly, that he would prevent his getting his certificate ; anal the confpiracy was formed for that purpnle between the prtfr.ner Davis, Barrow, a man named Wintle, a working filverfmith, a man named Kauai, and a woman named Graven.in order to implicate and iweAr againil Mr. Hathaway a charge of having 101 l money at un lawful gaming, within twelve months previous to his bankruptcy ; which charge, if proved to the amount hf 501. altogether irt the year, or 51. at any one time, would, under the Bankrupt Laws, have precluded the bahkrorpt from nht:iiiiing his certificate. They employed a man named M'Clatchin, the Cie, k of an Attorney, to draw up this affidavit, in which Wroth was to Iwear, that Mat ryat Came to his hassle to buy fume goods, in company with Mr. Hathaway : that Hathaway, there feeing a pack of cards upon the chimney-piece, propofed playing wish Marryat for a guinea, to be fpent for a hipper that night : that the pasties accordingly did play fnme games at Put, in which Hathaway loft to Marrjat eleven gui neas. Upon this affidavit a petition to the Chancel for was founded, and figned by the prilimer Davis and Barrow, praying that Hathaway's certificate might not be ligned, klis application to the Loaral ettaitces.Lot for tie certificate was in eoliferpience refuted. He remained in prifon for force time, and was only enabled to procure his enlargement finally, by figning a Warrant of Attorney to pay the •pli. loner the whole of his debt, of which he had paid a; confiderable part fince his enlargement, but was In harrafTed and perfecuted by Mt. Davis, by execution after ezccutinn, and inch rninout law expences, as to be driven to taloa! dillraelion and infinity, in one of the parosifms of which he had thrown himfelf out of his bedchamber window, And miraculoufly efeaped being dallied to pieces, Inn h.td ever fince continued in a wretched Rate of healeh. For this confpiracy, Melds. Wintle. Illarryar Bar row. with Mrs. Graven. had been profecuted , and cnnvieed lad feirions. The prifoner, Davis, had then put off his trial, upon the llrength of an affidavit, that he could not rarely go to it without the tettimo. ny of a material witnefs. It would be ken by the prodneion, or nonappearance of that witnefs today, how far that affidavit Was entitled to regard i—and if he did appear, his eras-examination would hell prove to what degree of credit he fhnuld be entitled. A principal witnefs who this day would be examin ed for the profecution, was a man named M'Clatchin, an attorney's clerk, and the very perfon who had been employed by the confpirators to draw up the falfe affidavit before mentioned. It would, mod probably, be objeeed againil this man's teltimony, that it was unworthy of credit-.--as being that of a co-confpirator—a partkepe eriminir. But it mod be in the recolleftion of every man, who knew any thing of the political agitatinns which fume time fince unto! , innately took place in the filler country, that the tel. timony of confpirators ageing their accomplices, even in crimes of a much more enormous nature, if pod fible, than the prefent—critnes, tot inftance, of high treafon and confpiracy for the fithvetlion of the Rate—had been deemed valid for the capital cowrie tion of the accomplice, even without the fupport of a fecond witnefs. But, in ordinary cafes, it had never bein denied in legal nage, that the tettimony of ac complices, when fupported by other Credible croi ' dente, was good. The Mt witnefs was Mr. John Hathaway, who trid he had been nine years a Clerk in the Bank, and had firlt known the prifoner about nine years ago.— That wanting to have a bill dikounted, he was in duced to apply to him as a money-lender. He did not ds the firft bill, but did a fecond, giving the wit neli part in goods and part in money : but finding that too exorbitaht a mode of doing bufinef,, he did hirgelf afterwards apply to the Filmier, and pro pole rather to pay a certain high premium at once for money, than take any more goods. The rate fettled was owe pound for tea, or few for, fifty, upon all toms advanced to him, on bills payable in fix weeks or two months. This rate he continued regu larly to pay to'the prifoner until the year 'Boo. when he became a Bankrupt. A little before that, the bills outftanding with the Defendant, and another man, named Barrow, amounted to goof. Finding himfelf embarraffed in his circumflances, be fent them tool. and thus reduced the debt one-third. He &only after was declared a Bankrupt. Upon his examina tion before the ConimilGoners, Davis and Barrow both attended, but were not allowed to prove their debts. Upon the day of the fir ft examination. the prifoner met the witnefs at Guildhall Coffee-honk, who wanted him to fay, on his examination, that his dealings with him were -for goods, and to fay nothing about the "furious premium. Bet whalers refuted, and anfwered, his Solicitor knew all ; and advifed him not to attempt to prove the debt. The prifoner Paid, he had better let him prove, or the witnefs thould pot have his certificate. He attempted to prove, on the fink and fecond meeting, but was hot allowed; and on the third meeting, the prifonet eni ployed Mr. Marryatt, the Counfel in this cattle, who laid, as the panner had before declared, " It was no matter, the witnefs Ibould not have his mil& tate." The prifoner afterwards told the witnefs, he would find plenty of witnetfes to prove they had woo of him by 4 amblin c above aryl. at a time. Subic vent to they the wanes was refilled his certificate by the Lord Chancellor, and he was fent to the King's Bench Pi icon on the 9th of Novembet. :Roo. A few days after, a man, whole name is really Wintle, came to the Odin. enquired for the witned, who was brought to him by a pet fon named Samuel Hill, his chum, in his lodging-room. Win tie laid, his name was Bell, and he came to advife the witnefs as a friend. offering, if he would pay Isl. to procure his difcharge next day. He came as an agent from Mr. Barrow. Witnefs totally-a:teed the propotth laying. he (tumid thortly have Its cer tificate. Wintle then laid, they would petition againft his certificate, and could set plenty of people to prove gambling againfl him. Witnefs faid, they could not, as he never played. To which Wintle replied, he wculd adrift witnefs to accede, as Bar row was a man that wnuld find people to (wear any 1 thing. Here Wintle went away : witnefs few him in di Ruing a light at the door going out, as to be, Pure of his perdin. He faid, his name was Bell, and I he lived at No. 9, Broad-dreet, Bloomfbury. The witnek was afterwards obliged to procure his libera tion, by figning a warrant of attorney, for his whole debt, to the prifoner; andi after his liberation, went to the honk of Wintle, in Twiller's-alley, near Moor fields, along with Samuel Hill. He immediately recognized Wintle, as the perfon who called on him in the King's Bench hut Wintle totally difclaimed all perfonal knowledge of the witnefs, or having ever hen him before. Witnefs afterwards paid live. rat inflalments of the debt, and was f ly perk tined by the prifoner. He mat him, and talked to him of the enormity of sets he had committed in getting people to (wear tidily, in order to injure him ; and went Co far as to threaten him with legal punilhmenti The prifoner anfwered." he had made no oath." Witnefs faid, lie procured others to do it, which was as bad. The prifiner replied, " then you Mould have differed me to prove my debt ; and it fo. you would have had your certificate, and I ihnuld ha re affilled you. Btu I don't regard your threats ; you know I can always beat you." The witnefs (wore he never played at fur, or any other game, in the honk of Wintle, or elfewheee, with hi.erryatt, as was (worn by Wintle; and that /10111 nine o'clock in the morning, on the day he was fo Elated to hate played, until nine the next, he was at a li.ufe near KentiCh Town, in company with two men, rained li.,rlow and Vs'iley. ( the tan was al• terwa.ds proved by Ballow). *Vile v.itnels underwent a very long cofs ear:dumb 'thee Sygr. Serjeant tali:, in which all the ipgentL sty and addthr. of the Learned latrine' were at full firetch to filake his terlinsony. All that he could obtain was. that he hoped for his certificate in cafe of conirialon that he was for a enntiderable time deranged in c'nfequence of the petfeernion he had tunable& and was am extremely nervous, from the accident which was the confer:pleats of his derange ment. The withers was often irritated, end ire' quently retorted upon the learned &cicala, but was clear and confident in every tittle of his tettimony Samuel Hill Was the nest wittier.. His tettlitiony was (port, and, In far as it went, fultained that of the preceding wiinefs. The next witnefs was Alexander M'Clatchin, who raid he was Clerk to Mr. Morley, an attorney. In 'Soo he attended the examination of Mr. Hathaway before the Coinmiffioners of Bankruptcy, and law the prisoner and Barrow there endeavouring to prove their debts. On the fecund meeting the prifoner Da vis attempted to prove f. - .r tool. but would not be al lowed. After the fecond meeting, he few Davis and Barrow together ; and they Aced the wispefs. if the proof of gaming within metae months would not debar the bankrupt of his certificate Wiate , s anfwered, certainly ; the proof of his holing Sl. at any one fitting would do it. Davis, the prifoner, luggettild the impoffibility of fuch proof. Barrow anfwered, there were people enough to be found who would prove it for a trifle ; and it Davis wined bear half the extreme, he would engage to get it &inc.—. Davis (aid he would do that, or any thing etre, If punifh filch a rcotindrel. On the 13th or 14th No. vember, witnefs raw Bartow, who called on him. and they went together to the Black Lion in Saint Martin's le Grand. There they Met Wintle, Marty. att, Mrs. Graven, and shortly afterwards Davis Came in. They talked about card playing, and it was agreed that Barrow firould petith,n againlt the bankrupt's certificate. in order to which Wind. Should (wear that Metryat had won eleven guineas from the bankrupt at Wintle's hnufe, and this was to be fupported by another affidavit from Mrs. Gra ven, to the fame Cleft. Barrow and Davis agreed to pay the expence ; and the which" by their direc tion, drew the affidavits, and read i,t before them all, and it was approved Wintle and Marryat both aiked for a minute defcription of the bankrupt's per fun, which they never had teen, and received a to lerably accurate defcription from Davis and Bar row. Bairow then called Davis out into the pane —they shortly after returned. and put down two guineas each to pay the crpences, and Davis went away ; upoa which the others returned Barrow his two guineas; laid, what they did was to terve him, =id he mutt be at no espenee. (Here the affidavit ) was produced, and read in Cquri.) la two dap,. afterwards the grimes met Winde r who as Mir was not quite clear of the defeription . given him btir Davis And Barrow, he had gene the night befog* to . the King's Bench pane, on puerile to fee Hath away, and had fpoken to him, but it was in the dui, and he Rill was not clear. Upon which the whiles with Marryat went again with Win:le. and contrived to procure him a diftind opportunity of tieing Hath away in the open day. They then fwore and filed the affidavit, and lodged the petithrn. Betides there two affidavits another affidavit was drawn by the witnefs, fupporting the former ones, to which a man, whom Barrow Paid was named Lewis, was to fwear ; but when this man came, he proved to be S limos Levi, the nephew of Barrow. The violas, M.Clat chin, though he had figned his affidavit with Leal, refufed to fwe_r it ; but Bartow procured a Jew in his place for "we fiatier, to perforate the wieners and (wear the affidavit, ahci it was filed with the ten. The witnefs then underwent a long croft ex amination by Mr. MAIIITOTT, the tendency of which was to invalidate his credibility, by bringing lions his owe mouth the acknowledgment of hia be ing an accomplice. Here terminated the principal evidenee-4or a man named Byrn, who attempted to give evidence, was fomuch intoxicated, as scat cely to be intelli b ible. Mr. Serjeant Bast then addreffed the Jory—divi. ding the evidence into three points ; he conteilded a that not a tittle of the tellimony that had been gired was legally admiffible agairin his client. In the fitn) witnels was °brio ufly tannic—the lecond,by his own acknowledgement, was guilty of the molt atrocious ' crimes end perjaries—and the third, ro drunk, as to he wholly unintelligible ; and therefore, any tali moray coming from fuch men, he hoped, would ne ver be received by a refpeaable Court and Jury, to the irreparable ruin of a repelable charafter. , He produced feveral witneffes to chat-atter. The CHAIIMAII, in fumming rip the evidence, could by no means agree with the learned Serjeant id the alledged infanity of the hrlt witnefs, who, on the contrary, bad (*need the dearth! I.ettpicuity and continency through the whole of it. The Jury, after a very Short deliberation, returned their verditna—Guilty. Yellerday a Common Hall was held at Guildhall, for the Elation of a Brldgemaller, in the roam of Mr. SMillt/IL M•alt tOTT. &reared, when Mr. Josaps WILLS was elated by a great majority, by Mew of hands ; the other candidate, Mr. Y lOWA Itto. declined troubling the Livery by demanding a Poll, but fig nified his intention of offeiing himlell to their notice on a future opportunity. The Thanks of the Common Hail were unani• moaly voted to the Lord Vigor (See Ad►ertifement In the preceding page.) Being Plow Monday, the Common Council, In. quell, and Con(tables of the fever Al Wards in the City were (worn into office, at GuilThall, before tb: Lord Mayor, Itecoider, &c.
