ISSIZE INTELLIGENCE. -~ . ,RN CIRCUIT—Bounor., Sm. S. WELLINGTON, TIIE VENUS, AND ROYAL GEORGE. Y AND OTHERS V. GETIIINO. opened the pleadings. The declaration defendants were owners of a small vessel of Wellington, which vessel had received injury by the wanton act of the defendant, • plaintiff now sought compensation in pleaded four special pleas of justifica the general issue. nt WILDE addressed the Jury. They had heard from his Learned Friend that this was an action to recover compensation in damages for injury sustained by the Duke of Wellington—(a laugh), of which vessel his clients, very respectable merchants, were the owners and masters—(a laugh); but the real question in the cause was, the right of all vessels trading to Newport, Mon mouthshire, to use the wharfs on the banks of the river Usk, for the purpose of loading and unloading their cargoes on the payment of certain rates. On the sth of May, the Duke of Wellington, loaded with corn, arrived at Newport, and fastened herself to the wharf belonging to the defendant, who shortly afterwards ordered her off, which order not being immediately complied with, he cut the cable and sent her adrift. The particulars of this ill natured act towards the Duke he would prove by wit nesses, but he considered the principal question in the cause was one for the decision of his Lordship, resting entirely on the construction of the 15th section of an Act of Parliament passed in the 42d year of his late Ma jesty's reign, entitled, " An Act for improving the navi gation of the river Usk." That section authorised the erection of wharfs on the river, and fixes certain rates that should be demanded by the owners of them, for the loading and unloading of vessels. It also directed that rings and chains should be fixed to the walls for the ac commodation of shipping frequenting that part of New port. Now, as be (the Learned Counsel) before said, the real question (and a very important one it was to the shipping interest), was, whether this accommodation could be demanded as a right, or was it necessary to have the consent of the owners of the wharfs ? He would prove the defendant's conduct most ill-natured, and trusted he should have the opinion of the Court on the construction of the Act in favour of his client ; he should rely confidently on their verdict. Thomas Williams examined—Witness was mate to the Duke of Wellington. On the sth of May they arrived at Newport, about six o'clock in the evening. The Venus WaS unloading at the defendant's wharf, and the Duke dropped silently alongside of her—(A laugh). The Royal George was not far off—(A laugh). After the Venus had discharged her load, the Duke got into her birth, and was fastened to one of the rings in the wall of the defendant's wharf. The defendant shortly after told the Captain of the Duke that he must be off, as the Royal George wanted to come in. The Captain refused, and said he had as good an authority and as much right to be there as the Royal George had. The defendant said, " Oh, oh ! have you ; we will try what effect cut ting the rope will do." The Captain replied, " This is the first time, Mr. Gething, I ever was at Newport, and from the reception I have met with, I hope it will be a long time before I come again." The defendant then said, " You had better at once take yourself off now." The Captain then gave orders to let out more rope, so that the vessel dropped down to the next wharf, and al though fastened to one of the rings of the defendant's wharf, no part of her lay before it except the bowsprit. This, however, did not satisfy him, and after some further angry conversation, he cut the ship's cable, and sent her adrift. The tide running high at the time she was con siderably damaged. Mr. Sergeant WILDE—I believe the Duke of Wel lington, after her cable was cut, run foul of some other vessel ? Witness—Yes, Sir, of the Venue—(Laughter). Mr. Sergeant WILDE—WeII, what happened then? Witness—The tide was running very high, and at that moment the Royal George came up and struck the Duke of Wellington with such violence asealmost turned him round—(Great laughter). Mr. Sergeant Wunz—Your vessel the Duke of Wel lington was considerably damaged? Witness—Yes, Sir. William Hall, a pilot, corroborated the above evidence, and added that, when the defendant cut the ship's cab's, they had unloaded all the cargo except five sacks of corn, which would not have taken them many minutes longer, but he would not wait. A reference was here proposed, and after some .00nsul tation between Counsel, it was agreed to refer the deci sion of the case to the Water-bailiff and Custom-house officer of Newport. The case excited considerable interest. STEPHENS V. NIBLETT AND LANE. This was an action to recover 331. the price of a horse. The defence was that the horse was purchased by Lane on his own account, and that Niblett was not liable. Evidence was produced to prove that Niblett and Lane were joint proprietors in the Bath Mail, but they had no connection in the coach for which the horse was purchased. Lord Chief Justice TINDAL held that all coach-pro prietors, whatever might be the terms of the partnership between themselves, were jointly liable for all debts con tracted in any manner connected with such partnership. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 331. This case was the last cause for trial. The Lord Chief Justice left Bristol on Sunday morning for London. CHESTER, Sin. 5. Before Mr. Justice ham. John Fleetwo;l6gi, was indicted for the man slaughter of Richard Done, at Runcorn, on the 2d of May last ; and Samuel Eaton (13), with aiding and 'abetting in the same. The extreme youth of the pri soners excited a strong feeling of compassion in Court. This was a most singular case, and the facts, as far as they transpired in evidence, were briefly as follow : James Mayor, the Captain of a flat, plying on the Duke of Bridgewater's canal; left the boy Done, who was what is called " the band," in the flat, then lying at Astmore-bridge, on the day named in the indictment. The Captain did not intend to sleep on board that night, and the boy Done invited both the prisoners to sleep with him on board the flat for company, to which their pa rents consented ; when the Captain returned on board, about three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, he found the cabin door open, the boy Done on the bed, quite dead, but still warm, and froth and blood issuing from the mouth. Mr. Samuel Myles, the surgeon who examined the body, said that he found the ears much swollen ; they bore marks of considerable violence as if from pressure, and there was a great fulness in the blood vessels in the hinder part of the neck. There were also marks of ten s/datable violence on the chest, the ilavity of the abdo men, and the anterior part of -thethighs, as if prodneed by severe pressu re . On the sth of May the body was opened. eessels of the brain and pia -mater were 'much distended. The sinuewas also filled with blood ; there was about a gill- of blood• in- each amity of the thorax. The bronchea and-the windpipe wete-filled with arterial blood. %e internal jugular vein was ruptured. The small intestines bore marks of groat violence from external pressure, and the stomach and liver were forced up against the diaphragm. In- the opinion of witness these•injuries were the cause of death; they could not have been inflicted in innocent play ; and neither of the prisoners was, of himself, sufficiently strong to have in flicted them. Mr. George Whitley, a surgeon at Halton, who as sisted in the examination of the. body, corroborated the last witness, but was of opinion that one of the pri soners► was sufficiently strong to have inflicted this violence. William Harding, a constable, who apprehended the prisoner Eaton, said that he admitted to witness that he and the prisoner Fleetwood had slept with the deceased on board the flat ; hut said that they had left him asleep in the morning, after having ineffectually tried to awaken him, by shaking him for half an hour. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Joseph Worthington, aged 24, an. ill-looking fellow, was indicted for horse-stealing. The prisoner, who ap peared to have " method in his madness," affected in sanity, and played numerous pranks at the bar, in order to induce a belief of his fatuity.• Among other expedi ents to which he resorted were, whistling a few bars of a Go to the and shake yourself," turning his back upon the bench, and throwing up orange-peel and ae sheep's eyes" at the ladies in the Grand Jury box. He also refuted to plead, but tinder the late alteration in the law on this point, his silence was taken as a plea of Not Guilty. The Jury, however (after first finding that the prisoner was of sound mind), returned a verdict of Guilty. Death recorded. The prisoner heard his sentence with perfect unconcern, and walked away whistling from the bar. NORTHERN ClRCUlT—L*icastut. Sin. S. &tote Mr. Justice BATLET.

George Taylor, aged 69, Benjamin Howarth, aged 23, Jonathan Parkinson, aged 42, and Thomas Kershaw, aged 30, were indicted, the three first-named for felo niously, riotously, and tumultuously, with others, assem bling together, and maliciously having entered into a certain loom shop, with intent to break, destroy, damage, and render useless, certain looms, machines, tackle, and implements therein, the property of William Chadwick and his partners ; and Thomas Kershaw, with having feloniously aided, abetted, and counselled them therein. The Jury acquitted Howarth, and found the other prisoners Guilty. The trial lasted more than eight hours. John Lord, aged 30, Isaac Nicholls, aged 23, John Wild, aged 16, and John Robinson, who were charged with a like offence, were allowed to withdraw their plea of Not Guilty, and to plead Guilty, and to enter into their own recognizances in the sum of 101. each, to appear for judgment, if called upon. Mr. Justice BAYLLY expressed a hope that these pro secutions would have a salutary effect. The prisoners convicted have not yet been sentenced. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. These Sessions commenced yesterday at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell-Green, before J. CoN sr, Esq. Chair man, and a fill Bench of Magistrates. After a few assault cases of no public importance, William Hodael was indicted for an assault on his wife. Mr. ADOLPHUS, in stating the case, observed, that cases of this description had generally been treated in Court with a levity that they did not deserve. This case was not one in which the husband and wife could be pro perly told to " kiss and be friends," but it called for a punishment that would make the prisoner remember that he was not allowed to ill-treat the prosecutrix with im punity, because she was his wife. Catherine Braw Hodsel stated, that the prisoner, her husband, was a brass-worker ; he had been formerly her first husband's errand-boy, but she had married him since her husband's death, and he had treated her on all occa sions very ill. On the day laid in the indictment, he first threw a bag of tools et her, which she parried from her head ; he then threw her down against a vice, and hurt her shoulder ; she ran up stairs, and he followed her with a carving-knife ; she bolted the door, and he stabbed the knife through the pannel ; and told her that so much of the knife as was through the door he would send into her body. He kicked his foot through another pannel, and the prosecutrix was so frightened that she jumped out of a first floor window, and went to a neighbour's. Mr. C. Phillips, for the defendant, asked her if she was not very jealous of the defendant ? The prosecutrix replied, that her health had been af fected by him three times.; and that he had, since their separation, brought women to sleep with him in her bed. The Jury found the prisoner—Guilty : And the Cmtinmsx told him he had mistaken the power of a husband very much. For instance, a man had no right to throw a stool at his wife—{lt was here intimated to the Chairman, amid much laughter, that it was a bag of tools, and not " a stool," that the de fendant had thrown). The Court suspended the sentence till Friday. THE SPITALFIELDS WEAVERS. Abraham Davis,Wm.Goodwin,Wm. Hicks,Wm. Shad, James Harper, and Wm. Scarlett, were charged with having conspired together to intimidate Messrs. Brooks, Duff, and Emmerson, silk-manufacturers, and compel them to carry on their trade in a particular way, contrary to their free consent, and that they did with this intent deliver the following resolutions to Messrs. Duff and Co. and demand their acquiescence in the same : At a general meeting of the journeymen Spitalfields weavers of silk, held at Temple-mills, in the county of Essex, it was unanimously resolved-8,000 persons pre uent—lst. That there be a general strike against those 'manufacturers who refuse to pay within 10 per cent. of the book prices of 1824. 2d. That no cane-spreader be allowed to turn on a cane without a printed certificate, to prove that it is the right price, on, pain df being excluded from the trade ; and that 'nose such can receive the trader's protection. W. 'That the works of those masters who refuse to pay the above prices be sealed ; each shop to seal their own, in the following way, viz. to divide themselves into small divisions, and each division mutually sealing their work. 4th. That every shop-meeting assemble to-morrow morning at eight o'clock, at their respective places, for the purpose of carrying into effect the foregoing resolu tisus. The prisoners pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. ALLEY was proceeding 'to open the case to the -jury on the pmt of the prosecution, when -Mr. AnoLonas,•for.the defendants, •said the asen,act- Mg wider his advice, would withdraw their plea and ad mit themselves to •be guilty. The fact was, they•had acted under an erroneous notion of the state of the law. Considerable distress and excitement prevailed at the - ,time, but now they found themselves to.have been in the wrong, they were anxious to express their contrition, and throw themselves on the clemency of the prosecutors. Mr. ALLEY said, as a proof that the prosecutors were I actuated by none but public motives, he would at once I accept the proposed terms, and consent that the defend ! ants be discharged on their own recognizance.. There were five other men charged with offences grow ing out of the same state of feeling, to whom he was I willing the same mercy should be shown, and he trusted the forbearance shown would not be lost on them. Charles Copps, George Boulton, and William Monks, were then placed by the other defendants, on a charge of sealing the works of Wm Monks, by and with the con currence of the said Wm. Monks. James Howard, Samuel Wood, and James Greenlief, were charged with a similar offence in sealing William Vickery's work, with the exception that Vickery bad op posed their so doing. The prisoners having respectively retracted their for mer pleas and pleaded guilty, The Chairman proceeded to address them :—Their of fence, he observed, was a most serious one to the public ; and he almost doubted how far he ought to permit their discharge, merely on their recognizance.. He would not, however, interfere, to prevent the merciful intentions of the prosecutors, but permit their discharge on their se verally entering into their own recognizance. in 201. each. STATE OF BARNSLEY. The town of Barnsley has been greatly agitated during the last week. After the destruction of property at the house of Mr. Thomas Jackson, in the night of Thursday week, no fresh outrage was perpetra ted till Wednesday last, when, about nine o'clock at night, a large barn, 24 yards by 7, the of Sir Francis Lindley Wood, Bart. it the occupation Jack- SOO' and Hodgetts, manufacturers, was discovered to be on fire, and on proceeding to the place, it became but too evident that this conflagration was the work of an incendiary. The barn is situated at about a mile from the two, and almost close to it stood three haystacks, containing at least 70 tons of hays The building had been used as a deposit for unemployed looms, timbers, &c. all of which were consumed before the fire, which had been lighted in several different places, could be extinguished. The loss of property in the barn is estimated at about £2OO, and the injury dose to the buildings is probably to about half that amount. The haystacks escaped almost miraculously, owing to the direction of the wind. On the arrival of the military near the spot. two or three persons were seen who were suspected to have been concerned in the arson, and these persons were chased, but they aimed their escape, after having fired several shots at the soldiers by whom they were pursued, none of which took effect. A reward of fifty guineas has been offered for the apprehension of the offender or offenders, and about nine o'clock on Thursday night, J. Atkinson was apprehended at the door of the King's Head-lan, In Barns ley, on suspicion of having bees engaged in the attack upon the house of Messrs. Cordeaux and Sons, and Mr. Coe, on Thursday night. The agitation of the town was considerably increased on Thursday morning by William KW, a private in the troop of the 3d Light Drape..., now quartered in Barnsley, basing applied a pistol to his body, and shot himself through the been, in his Isar ters at the Three Cranes Inn. The cause of this rash act is sot satisfactorily ascertained; but it is said that Hill, who is very re spectably connected, was subject to despondency, which had been aggravated by a love affair in Ireland. and by habits of intoxication which be bad unfortunately acquired. Such is the state of public apprehension created by the riots and outrages of Barnsley, that almost every warehouse in the town is convened into a soft of garrison, with arms, ammu nition, &c., and persona are appointed to remain an night in most of the warehouses on the watch, to protect the property under their care. A general opinion prevailed, that the Iring of the barn of Messrs. Jackson. and Hodgetts, en Redoes day night, was meant as a ruse, and that its object was to draw off Ilse attention of the military and the civil power from the town, which was to be sacked la their absence. We hope this is a mistake, and that diabolical as was the conduct of the incendiaries, there were no great number of persons im plicated in the transaction. It may be proper to state, for the information of those who are ignorant of the fact, that taw injury done to property by a riotous mob must be repaired by a tax upon the hundred, and that consequently Mr. Jackson will not suffer from the damage done to his house, nor the firm front the fire set to the other premises , if it can be roved to be the act el' a lawless assembly. Om Thursday night, at eleven o'clock, another troop of the 3d Dragoons arrived from Sheffield in Barnsley ; and the mili tary force now in that town, including the Yeomanry Cavalry, is from 100 to 200, while the special constables recently sworn In amount to about 130. Piequets of soldiers and bodies et meta hies continue to traverse the town and its immediate oeighbour hood, each successive night, during what is emphatically called " the reign of terror." LATEST INFORMATION. Levis Mercury Office, Friday night, seven o'clock. Our reporter has jest returned from Barnsley. No fresh out rage has taken place since Wednesday sight, and the group of weavers inithe streets, for the last two daya,bave been less aunterous than usual. This day, at noon, John Atkinson, who was appre hended at 11 o'clock last night. on a charge of being actively co pied in the attack upon the house of MOMS COl4Olll and SOW, and Mr. Coe, in the evening of Thursday the 27th ult. was brought up in custody of the constable, before the Magistrates. at the Pohne Office. It appeared from the evidence of John Gill, a soldier in the 3d Dragoons, that on the night in question he was standing in the street, near Mr. Coe's house, when he saw a number of men coming in that direction, and when they got opposite to Mr. Co.'. house, be heard some one cry " halt, front, and fire !" and that immediately a shower of stones were thrown against the windows. One of the assailants wore a cloth cap, booed round with red. After a long examination, in the course of which Atkinson en deavoured to prove an alibi, he was committed to Toth Castle for trial. Monday night, or early on Tuesday morning, the Bank of the British Linen Company at Hamilton was robbed of bank notes, amounting, it has been stated, to .22,000. The money was transmitted on Monday from the ogee in Glasgow, sad was deposited as usual in the bank-safe, at Hamilton. A person and a large dog, we understand, sleep at night in the apartment where the cash was deposited.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE- Mame Atlas', a modest and respectable-looking young woman, under sixteen years of age, was charged with setting fire to the furniture of several bed-rooms at the Portugal Family Hotel, Fleet street, at which she acted in the capacity of a barmaid. Mr. Wake, Oakes, the pr or of the Hotel, deposed, that at half-past Dille o'clock on Sunday night the furniture of one of his rooms was discovered on fire. The prisoner was the first to give the alarm, and found to be quenching it when some one of the in mates approached bee. Between eleven and twelve, ate and his nephew, who sleep on the same staircase, went to bed, and soon after that three or four rooms were discovered to be in a blase; it must have been the work of some vile incendiary. In his belief, no one but his nephew and the prisoner had access to the rooms in question. Sir P. Lanais inquired whether the young woman had acted with prudence since she had been in the service of witness? H e replied, " perfectly so • I bad the best of characters with b er ; Mr. Rockky, the win e merchant, was case who gave it, and I know her friends to be very respectable. She has been very attentive to business, and very obliging." John Oakes, the nephew to the last witness, proved the fact of his going to bed at the time specified ; be slept in the next room to the prisoner ; he had not been lon in his bed-room before be beard the cry of * fire," and the whaler was looking down from the balcony at the top of the house ; she was partly undressed, and on witness seeing her she want into her own room before she went down stairs. Sir Puna called upon the young woman to explain.—She ad mkted that she was in the balcony, and that she was partly un dressed ; she said she had, pulled c( bar black silk gown, and in her burry put on the mime in which she then appeared ; when she got to the bottom of the' house she gave an alarm, and then feinted. This was admitted 'by the prosecutor. . The father of the prisoner here stepped forward. and said that for many years he kept the wine vaults et the Marsh gate, Lam beth. but was at present out of business; his daughter had. been behind his bar from an Wank and was Rev Own every vice. and universally respected.

The watchman said, that whew he wait in he saw the prisoner and another woman come down ; that person was the cook, who was completely dressed, and quite collected, although it had been stated that she was in bed at the time the fire broke out. She said, " I've been working like a sued 'an," and handed witness a ash kettle full of water. Sir Pwas Lame, after hearing the evidence, said, that In his mind there was not any thing at present to implicate the young woman, although the charge against her was a serious one ; but h e was at ;he same time bound to remand her. He would order the poe.boy, the cook, and the old woman alluded to, to be present at the re-examination, and also a person of the name of Daniels was mentioned. To a further question from the Alderman, the watchman and a gentleman connected with the spirit trade stated their opinion to be, that some other hand than the prisoner's committed the act. During the whole nomination the young woman stood un daunted, and gave ready answers to every question put ; one im portant one wag, that the old woman was in company with the cook on Saturday, and bad a long conference, and that the latter went cut every morning before her master was up.--Remanded.
