Tilt ZUNI V. 1 0 011CHIU AWO °THUM The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved to file a criminal information against the Printer and Proprietor of the Amslish Gentleman weekly newspaper, for a libel on Mr. Rothschild. Tr e libel, which appeared on the 18th of December, imputed to Mr. Rothschild, that he had been instrumental to the then pane which prevailed in the money-market, by withdrawing a large sum of money fro:n his bankers, Lloyd, Jones, and Co. The affidavit upon which the application was made, denied the whole of the statement. It was added, that Mr. Rotli%hild had not kept cash with Lloyd and Co. since 1822. Application was made, after the alleged l libel apprated, to learn the name of the author , and the' glitor of the Paper admitted that he had been imposed upon by the person whe had furnished the article. It was allowed to be untrue, but there was a refusal to Mate a persdnal apology, on the ground that the eon dUctors of the Paper bad acted upon the belief that they were doing their duty to the public by inserting it. The Cbuat granted the rule to &tie cause. • TN t ZINO 'A SLOSIAN. Tbe defendant, a fillerirs Meer, appeared to receive lodgment, baiting been found guilty of an assault and false arrest. Taio Comm sentenced Itim to pap a line of EC COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Firsavasv 7. RUM V. TEMPER, LATE SEIRRIIPI Or SWM. Mr. Serie:int WILDS :hewed cause against a ride, obtained a few days ago by Mr. Sequa' VAUGHAN, why a new trial should not be bad in this case, on the ground that the verdict was against evidence, and also contrary to the direction of the L.arned Judge %elm presided. It was an action tried before the Lord Chief Justice Best, at the last Sittings for Ldndon. The plaintiff wits Mr. George Rush, a Carpenter and builder, residing in Waterloo-road, Surrey ; and the action was brought to recover possession of certain pro. perty, which the Sheriff had ille,tally taken, under a writ of Jeri facies, issued against the property of Mr. Wm. Rush, the brother of the plaintiff, to levy for 851. the debt and costs in an action, in which he bad suffered judgment to go by default. The LORD Cuter JUSTICE read his notes of the trial. The plaintiff was foreman to his brother, William Rush, who left the kingdom in the latter end of 1823, in con sequence of some proceedings being instituted against him by the Crqwo, for a violation of the Excise Laws. Tile brother of the plaintiff having suffered judgment to go by default, in an action to recover 91. whack with curls, amounted to 351. and an execution being issued pieta his property, the defendant, on the Ist of De cember. 1823, entered the premises to levy, when he we& informed by the present plaintiff that the property on the premises was his, and had been sold to him by Jibs brother. Tne defendant not believing it to be a bonside sale, but a fraudulent transfer of the property bf the two brothers to defeat the execution, proceeded to levy, notwithstanding the notice of action from the plaintiff. The plainti s wiineises stated, that the sale of propeity by William Rush to the plaintiff wok place on the 26.11 of 11 member, 1823, not a' , week before the defendant took the propeity in exe cution. The evidence of the broker who appraised die goods previous to the sale of them to the plaintiff, said they were paid for by the plaintiff in the following manner :—A policy of insurance, 701. wages due from William to George Rush, 701. notes, 501. and for the remainder a bill of exchange. For the defence, a Sheriff's officer and another person deposed, that he was in formed by the plaintiff that he had paid his brother for the property in notes and sovereigns. Mr. Justice Best, in summing up the case to the Jury, expressed a strong opinion that the sale was not bone fide; but concocted the plaintiff and his brother to defeat the execution. The Jury, however, gave a verdict for the plaintiff. Mr. Serjeant WILDS contended, that the verdict OD& Sot to be disturbed, because it happened to be given hi opposition to the opinion of the Judge who tried the came ; and cued the case of Carstairs and N.A.o in support of the doctrine. The CAD.Re decided, that the case ought to be sent again before a Jury, and made the rule absolute. CLARKS V. JOHNSON AND AMOTH!R. Further Argument was beard in this case. The prin cipal point was, whether the Overseers or Church wardens of a Parish have a legal right to take money frova'tbe father or mother of an illegitimate child, as an indeashity to secure the Parish from loss, in case the child sdonld biconie chargeable? The Loan Caller JVITICI said, the case was certainly of considerable importance. and if the sum sought to be recovered was not very trifling, the Court would have b ent the case down for :trial %kin, to obtain further tact% before Making t. rule as to whether Overie4ll4 Imre entitled to take Sao[ rift an iadentni COurt bad determined to to tptioestion into serious considegation before la ded.

This cause was one of fifty•five brought against the members of the Pacific Mutual Insurance Association. and in which a •erdict has been obtained fur one of the plaintiff*, and for the defendant on some of the counts, subject to a reference. Mr. Serjeant TA DOT obtained a Rule to shew cause why the-proceedings in this cause should not be stayed until the number order of the Court. kr. Serjeant VAUGHAN this day chewed cause against the Rule. After a short argument, the Rule was made absolute, and one day given to arrange all the other actions in which the same motion has been made. SECONDARIES' OFFICE, COLEMAN-STREET, Fits. 7. PRANK V. SANSBURY. This was an action brought to recover the sum of 1491. Bs. 2J. for plumbing and gLizing done by the plaintiff fot t! e defendant. Mr. LAW, for the plaintiff, stated, that his client was a plumber and glazier, residing at Stoke N:w•ington, and the defendant a Gentleman of property, residing in the same neighbourhood. The defendant built a num.l her of houses on Newington Common, and employed the plaintiff to paint and ylaze them, ha himself con stantly inspecting the work timing i:s progress, and approving of the manner in which it was done. The defend int having suffered judgment to go by default,the l only question for the consideration of the Jury was the amount of damages which the plaintiff was entitle,' to 'recover? He then called John G. Wright, foreman to the plaintiff, who stated that he painted and glazed several houses on Newing ton Common, for the defendant. The defendant from time to time gave him directions during the progress of the work, and upon which he acted. Witness after wards pointed out to the plaintiff's Surveyor, the work he had performed, and which was afterwards mea sured by him. Bainuel Grovel, a journeyman in the employ of the plaintiff, gave evidence to the sante effect. • J. W. Hampshire ' a Surveyor ' said he had looked over the work done, and measured and valued it. He is acquainted with the price and value of work, and thought the plaintiff's charges strictly reasonable. The Sacostomtv summed up the evidence, and the Jury gave a verdict fur the &luta—Damage% tali. Is. 2d. We copied a statement yesterday from a Morning P.per, of Mr. MORIWS return to England, instead of his arrival in 2vlesico. It is stated in an article from Rome, dated January 8, that the health of his HOLINZSIN if still in such o pre carious state, that he cannot leave his apartments In many parts of the kingdom the Ladies have re solved to mAte silk a considerable portion of their dress, with the praiseworthy motive of affording relief to a class which is suffering under great deprivations. Letters from Edinburgh mention, that one Anatomical Lecturer has actually been obliged to give up his class from the impossibility of procuring subjects. Many students complain of this, and it is said pmpose going to Dublin, in summer, to acquire a practical knowledge of handling such *Wends. Monday a meeting of the Subscribers to the Surrey Society, for the employment and reformation of off.nd ers discharged from the County Gaol, and from the House of Correction at Brixton, was held at the Seri lions House, Newington, J. liN Scntvssr; EA. being, Chairman. In the spring of 1824, this Society was first established. The object of it is to furnish temporary assistance to those individuals who, on their discharge from the Coonty Gaol in Horseirronger-lane, and the House of Corvect'on at Brixton, are de,titute of the mans of subsistence, and, fro n want of friends, or inability to procure employment, are frequently driven, by necessity, to seek sup ; :o.t in their fo:mer courses of profligacy; and to promote, as far as may be prac ticable, the reformation of the juven;le offenders dis charged from the above priso:is.

Wednesday night, at eight o'clock. a most horrible occurrence tor.k place in the town of Newcastle, county of Limerick. Serjeant Holland, of the 62d Resi meat, who was stationed there on the recruiting ser vice, was walking up the - street with a young man who had offered bimselt for enlistment ; when they got to the top of the square, and not one hundred yards from the barrack, the person he had been walking with stepped aside, and j'ined three other men, who imme diately approached Sesjeant Holland, and del b.-rately bred a shot at him, which took effect, and the contents struck him in the lest arm, between the elbow and the shoulder, inflicting a most desperate wound, the entire of the flesh having been torn away from the under part, and the balls or slugs passing through at the upper. The poor man lies in a wretched state. Wednesday, a most distressing accident occurred in the County of Chime, which has involved several families of respectability in profound grief. COLMAN O'Louart mu, Eiq. of Port, brother to the Counsellor of that name, and two young men, - sons of ANDIRW Kxaiw, Esq. of Ballyallah, near Ennis, went on Wednesday morning, with a servant of the former Gentleman, on a sporting excursion. On the lake of Dromore, about six miles beyond Ennis, for the purpose of duck-shoot ing, they entered a small boat of a- flimsy light con stt uction, and pushed from the shore with the intention ~ f remaining out for some time. Unfortunately, from that moment none of the four ill-fated persons were seen alive, nor any vestige of the bo it ; but neat day, two Of their hats were recognized floating on the water the worst fears of their friends were instantly realised, and every exertion having been used, two of the bodies were found. Mr. O'Lleustust and one of the young KILRINS. The other brother and servant have not been yet discovered. R A TES.—Capt4 111 LA WIDOW, from Laguna, informs that five pirates Gad been taken in Palsada river, by an expedition 'of 60 %oldiers, fitted out at Campeachy and Laguna. The pirate canoe was commanded by Joseph Perez, a native of Cadiz, lately from Havannab. and an old offender. Their canoe was seventy feet long, and manned by ten Indians, whom they had taken prisoners on the coast, and compelled to work the canoe. There was found in the canoe twelve bales COCOA, five bales , dry goods, one pipe of wine, five half barrel s o f flour, one b.ut jewellery, and one box of specie. The pirates u ere condemned to be shot.— United Sista Paper, 'lOOll$T. Dig*TOW COURT, rim T. X nny Drown, a man of very respectable appearance, and; who. had filled the office of Steward on board the Venus steam packet, came beore the Court to obtain his discharge. He. was opposed by a creditor named Stent, a butcher. Prom the evidence of the insolvent, he seemed_to have. been particularly to:fortunate, both in his domestic affairs, and also in hi, transactions on board the Venus. He imputed his insolvency to the expenses he had incurred on account of his family being very much afflicted with sickness, and also to the loses he had sustained in the Venus steam-boat. In the sum mer months it is ctistomery for the steamboats to mike *keit sions to the Nore or elsewhere, and the Stew ard, who reasonably expects that tlat pissengsrs will become his guests, prepa , es exc bent provisions on board the vessel, and such an entertainment as, he said, was intended to keep up its respectability and character.— Unlor tenately, however, he seems to have gone upon a Wrong tack, for although he was led to expect from 400 to 500 persons would have entered the vessel as passengers, when those excursions were appointed to tl!e Nore, Ste. and although he provided provisions for that number, only about two huddled came, and out of that two hundred, one half of them brought their own "provisions. They seldom came on board before the appointed hour its the morning, and, with his scanty cargo, he was compelled to put his boat .to sea. He was, therefore, prevented from disposing of his provi-, sons in any other manner, and the heat of the weather taking an effect upon them, he was obliged to throw them overboard. Again, he said, to keep up the re spectability of the vessel, he was always obliged to have five waiters on board, and paid them out of his own pocket from U. to 15s. per week, but when those excur sions were appointed to take place, he then engaged several other waiters, and ho-anticipated that the profits he expected to derive froth the liberality of the pub lic, would have compensated him for all his exertions. In making several voyages to Margate, the vessel was run foul of, and on one occasion, was nearly run down by a collier. On those occasions, the destruction among his crockery, glass, &c. was very great, but he esti mated that loss at 1501. He had no wines or liquors ou board, every drop was drained out, and on the last passage, homeward, he had scarcely a sufficient quer.- tity. He had a claim to two shares on the boat box, but that produced him no more than six shillings per week. He bad expended a large sum in the education of his five children. He had expended a considerable sum of money for metbcal attendance, and he had been compelled to pay about ssol. for law expenses; the reason was that his creditors were partial to litigation, and when he was arrested by the opposing creditor, it cost him seven guineas to get back to tire vessel the next morning. Having accounted for various articles of property, and among them a Coronation jacket, for which he gave three guineas, the Court said there were no grounds fi,r opposition, and ordered the insolvent to be discharged. John Wright was opposed by Mr. Pot.Locx, for a Mr. James Tucker. The facts of this case sere these. Mh. Tucker, who kept a boarding school iu Alton, Hants, obtained some upholstery goods upon credit fug the insolvent, a speci fi c time was appointed for payment, but it,appears that before that time arrived, the insolvent having beard that Mrs. Tucker was about removing from the town, entered the house, and in sisted upon taking away the furniture be had supplied. He did carry off a portion of it, whereupon Mr. Tucker brought an action of trespass against him. The cause was:ried at the last Winchester Assizes, and a verdict was returned of two hundred pounds damages.— The costs were about 2251. His other debts nude the whole demands against him about 5451. The insolvent , sa id t h at h e su pplied Mrs. Tucker with goods to the amount of one hundred and fifty poimbs. At that time he was not aware that Mr. Tucker was confined in the King's Bench Prison, or that he had applied to take the bole& of the Insolvent Act, and had been remanded for fourteen months, for concealing his pro. perty. If he bad been aware that such was the case when Mrs. Tucker applied to him for goods, he would not have let her had a single article. When he en tered her house at Alton, he only took away a part of those goods he had supplied. !dr. flume said. he was surprised drat, ender tbese einem stances, the Jury had returned such a verdict against him. The Couas ordered him to be discharged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Thomas Waterfete and G. Sawyer, were brought up to be balled before the LORD Maros. A Bench warrant had been issued against them for a conspiracy, and they were some time ago sent to pihon. '!'he certificate of Mr. Shelton stated, that the two pri. miters being labourers, h..d been, on the 12th of January, indicted, for that they being poor and in Indigent circumstances, contrived by artful means and representations, to obtain to themselves, from Hobert Parker, William Bennett, and other persons in the Silk Trade, divers large quantities of goods, chattels, and merchandise of great value, belonging to those persons. and to cheat and defraud them thereof, did unlawfully conspire and co.operate, with other persons unknown, to roprisent themselves as men Of good credit and reputation, as tradesmen of considerable property, and in aSiuent circumstances, and carrying on business to a large amount, particularly in the Silk Trade. The ceniacate also stated, that thei prisoners did not appear or plead to this indictment; that proyess had been Weed against them, and that, when taken, they shout* enter into recognisances themselves in mt. each, with two anvil ties in 1801. each. These two men are the persons to whom the infantries Queen-street gang of swindlers were stated to have given references, when they were carrying on their system of depreda tion upon the public.

Hatt*, Esq. the sitting Magistrate, to answer the complaint of a Mr. John Brooks, a " morning advertiser," who is employed occa sionally to announce to the public Anything which certain dish'. tearsted individuals think worthy of its notice. In pursuance of his occupation, he was perambulating on Monday, as usual, through fit. Marlin's-lane, with his " beard" as his shoulder, announcing the new grand masquerade—wham he was met by the fair de. (endant, who, coming up to him, without any provocation, first cracked his board with a violent blow from her pectin, and next paid the sauna compliment to his own occiper. The Lady, in her 'defence, denied the whole statement, and pleaded an alai. Mr Brooks, however, was unluckily too well provided with witnesses to establish her identity ; and she was in consequence locked up, in default of ball. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
