PRlem -tiEvEN -.1 1 .1DA B• CHESTER, APRIL 10. , , • • .71. e expeite3 trial of Sir CnAnr.ti Wookotsr.tythis' day attracted ucrowdcd iteditorf to the C ourt at to- • early an hbur a s half ra st seven eiloci. - Several elegantly-dressed Ladies occupied the seats at both sides of the Bench ; the-Gentlemen of the Grand Jury . were in the gallery over it; and the spacious ar a of the Court was so•thronged, that the people might be said to be almost literally wedged together. • SENTENCR OF AI'INNLSAND BRUM At nine the Judges arrived, and Jamb Innis and Jame Geo. Bruce were brought up to rezeive sentence. On the prisoners being 'asked what they had to say why sentence of,death should not be prenounceit upon them i'• M'lnnis said—" My Lord,- this -man ,(Bruce) is innocent ; am the man who shot 'Birch ; but though I shot Birch, there.was not a man that came against me but swore falsely. • Birch himself swore falsely, and Pearson -swore falsely. I repeat, that I aim th e manwho shot Birch, and 1 can give tour Lordship several -reasons for it but no man k*ew of my shooting Birch except myself." The 1 r 59 ter I rite then addressed his Lordship-_ • '4 My Lor d—The very unexpected light which As misturY GOD has been pleased of his infinite mercy to shew the circumstances cf my case, through the instrumentality of the prisoner M•lnnis, has induced me thus to trespass on the attention of your Lord ship. I beg, with all humility to state, that from my inimcy I have-had so far a knowledge of the religion of my country as always to bear in mind that divine maxim of our blessed and most merciful REDEEMER. of " doing unto all men as I would they should do unto me!" I ant also well acquainted v•ith, the prioc:ples of humanity, and leok upon the detestable crime of assassination as equally repugnant to both ; and, my Lord, if ever I had, either by my words or thoughts, or even my actions, been accessary to the attack on the life cf Mr. Birch, far from declining your iudg ment, I could not even pray for the mercy of my GOD. I declare most solemnly to your Lordship, that I have had no acquaintance with the prisoner M'lnnis, nor did I, to my knowledge, ever see his person until the time of his.examitiatton in the Castle cf Chester. My connection with Harrison was by means of his employing me as an assitant in his school, in which situation I remained only six weeks. Yopr Lordship has said that the innocent man has nothing to fear. I say now, as .I have said before, I am not afraid of the sentence which you are about to pronounce upon me. I can face my Gon, and with a clear conscience ; for I am in nocent of the crime laid to my charge. I ani ready to die ; but if I die, I die innocent. I shall not be affected by your sentence, my Lord -; it is the law, and I will submit, I must submit to it. But I shall appear with. confidence and composure before my GOD ; and my sentiments will be found use same at the hour of my death, if I am to die." Bruce having concluded, sentence was given. The CHI EF.JUST/CE.•••••se Jacob Mglnnis, and James George Bruce, it now becomes the duty of the Court to pass upon you that sentence which the law has most properly provided for such climes as yours. You, Jacob M'lnnis, who have just stated that all ;die Wee who have sworn against you have sworn falsely, have beer convicted upon evidence as clear as ever was adduced .in a Court of Justice. The persons who have sworn falsely are the persons who swore that you were a hundred yards distant from Birch when the shot was fired, when you yourself, since the verdict has been pronotinced, have acknow ledged that -you were the man by avhdm the crime was committed ; and you: M'lnnis, stood by while they swore, and heard them perjure themselves in • the face of their GOD and of their country. You have confessed yourself to be the individual who attempted to-murder Birch, an innocent man, who was acting only in the discharge of his duty, and who had never given, either to you or Bruce, the smallest provocation ; you acknowledged this, not with any symptoms of regret or remorse, but by a bold avowal of your crime, as if you stood here not to repent, but to justify and to boast of it. Your conduct here tallies with the evidence of Pearson, as . to the conversation ybu had with him in the place called Gee's Field, when you said, I am the man who shot Birch ; this .is the pistol that did it ; and any man who informs shall have the contents of that pistol, if I should come from America to do it: Your case is one of assassination, a crime repugnant to every English 'feeling ; and a more aggravated case has seldom come before a Court of Justice. " James George Bruce, you have been found guilty of aiding and abetting in this heinous clime. You have stated that you are innocent, and that you are 1 a moral person. The evidence has satisfied the Jury, that, whatever your former conduct may have ben, you are guilty of the charge .adduced against you. You have said that you are a schoolmaster. If we are to judge from the conduct of which you stand convicted, your schiSol must be a school for assassi nation, and your scholars would inevitably be 'in structed in such principles'as would lead them first to crime, and eventually to punishme n t: Th e sen tence upon your crime is death ; and it is the firm determination of the Judges of this Court that your sentence, and that of M'lnnis, shill he carried into execution on Saturday next—a period more early than is usual. Prisoners, you have not long to live: the pe riod of your days is fixed ; and I would entreat of you to pass the small remainder of your time in humble prayer to the GREAT DISPOSER of all things, to whom alone you now can look for pardon. In this world the hopes of both are doted. The sentence of the Court upon you both is, that you be taken from hence to the place from whence you came, and from thence to the place of execution, there to be hung by the neck until you are dead ; abd the Lone h ave mercy on your souls I" Al4 - Innis:—.4 Thank you, my Lord; k's a good cure tor a tpirming in th'e head," 'The pi isoners appeared quite unintwed by * a . m . tcnce pronounced upon them.

The Royal Tennis Court, in Great Windmill -street, Saint James's, was crowded yesterday, and more gentec4 than usual, for the benefit of Scroggins. The amateurs had plenty of fun, and some sparring. dtbeat and Tucker made a rid:ening set-to, and played at hitting instead of glove tapping. Deaf Doris and Bill Abbot made a gallant set-to ; but although Nature never mixed together a better piece of workmaushtp than Davi:, Abbot's weight gave him rather the btst. aNi:xr and B. Brun. —Here was an exhibition of strength and of science. Burn hit Oliver through the guard at going off; but some manly rallies followed, and the exchanges of blows were about equal. It gaVe much satisfaction. Shelton and Bales made a most excellent display of science; their bits were delivered with much precision, their parries were dexterous, and their quickness in returning astonished the Court. It scarcely can be said that either had the best. Randall and Harry any difference, this set-to was better than the last, from the variations in science. Although Holt had the worst of it s .- d so would any other man), yet he sustained the attacks of this wonderful perc..rmer with great dex terity; but Randall's sizatidet / $ could not be kept quiet till the gloves were off. Much applause ft:tile-wed. Turner and Saistpsen.—This was a real milling bout, and was another lessen to Sampson against his random rush, which is frenzy rather than game. Turner tapped the claret in the second round, and he kept it streaming in a regular mid of several rounds, by ineeting Sampson at going in. In one of these rallies Scroggins hustled , upon the stage, and getting between them, said, " This won't do; whet be ye deter ?" Cries of "Go on!" and " Na, no !" were vociferated, and the men took off the gloves. IFut Country Dick and a Intrancleshirs lad had .a turn; but Dick, always ready, usiikd away, and chalienged VI map 1 the world, and gw.: half a stones Tsung Richnsonst, or Richmond's pupil, operated upon a white man's head gaily; and Scroggins returned thanks in a weds. ' Joshua Hudson mounted the stage, and challenged to fight Randall, who took his turn there, a nd said, though he had tie dined fighting, he would accommodate Joshua in six months, for two orthree hundred guineas. ' Ned Turner said he would fight D. Hudson for any sum, on the same day, or give a stone to any man but Randall; but David being absent, there was no answer. THE MOSTYN-HUNT ?LACES. WKDNESDAY, 6.

MEMOIRS OF THE COURT OP WEETPHALIA.--The Author of this interesting Work is certainly liable to be reproached for having concealed his name; this was, however, an unavoidable condition to secure the independence of his pen. Many persons will probably recognise him ; it is evident he was in a situation to see-aud hear all that passed. The circumstance of publishing anonymously is faVourahle tothe frankness with which he expresses himself with regard to those personages who appear on the scnc. By giving his name he would hive deprived liin►self of this valuable privilege; in that- case his production would have gained in politeness what it had lost.in veracity : but 'et would, at the same time, have been less amusing • land inatructive.
