Assag INTELI e IGEKE. __LANCASTER, Avant it. FROM OUR OWN REPORTER. RECEIVED IN TOWN TUIS MORNING. The Assizes for this County commence on Wednes- day (this day), and from the very peculiar and interest ing the calendar, their approach is regarded with hutch' interest. The inhabitants of this ancient city of . r the.,County Palatine have been completely on the Wit% and consequently any description of decent lodging is charged at a most enlr mons rate, the usual 'price befnx trebled, and in many instances quadrupled. lathe Citendar Mr. Edward Gibbon Wakefield is styled Gentleman, and the terms of the charge upon .which he is detained are given thus Having against ghe peace &c. feloniously carried away Ellen Turner,, • ..kiuster, and afterwards unlawfully, against her will IDK Reid consent, married the said spinster, Ellen Turner." • This prises or will most certainly be tried early in the en mity; week, and not before, as the trials of the prisoners for tne Hundred of Salford always stand first in order, and Ur. Wakefield's offence occurred within the West Derby. and Leyland Hundreds. With respect to the • Thinly rumours which have busied the public mind in this case, it would be too tedious to notice them, or the motives of parties in circulating them, but upon one, we cannot help observing, as it was mischievously meant ti wound the already harrassed feelings of Mr. Turner and his family, and obviously (although possibly the s'lly inventor never thought of any such thing) calculated to throw the accused off his guard, and relax his efforts of defence i we allude to the report that the proceed. ings had dropped. So far from there being the least intention for any thing of the kind, a very eminent At - torney has been busily employed for several weeks in preparing the evidence and case, and last week sent the usual notice of retainer for the prosecution to the Attorney-General, Mr. John Williams, a very distin guished leader on this circuit, the Attorney-General (Se .rlett) for the Duchy of Lancaster, Mr. Sergeant Cross, and one or two others. The prisoner had sent a number of subecenas to witnesses:, who had, upon read ing the mischievous report alluded to, actually returned them, under the impression that their presence would not be required ; consequently Mr. Wakefield's agent was obliged to resort to the tedious process of serving them over again. His defence, it is said, will be very complete; and the case, it is expected, if not stopped by the immense roll of objections which are already con templated, will occupy one entire day. The objections, upon each of which great argument will arise, are intended to be made first upon the pleas ; nest upon the indictment and declaration; thirdly, the array and jurisdiction of the Court ; and finally upon the ground that the Act of Parliament does not recognise the offence as indictable, unless force be used. We would not notice any of the probable proceedings upon the day of Mr. Wakefield's trial, but we ate aware that his case cannot be injured by any such notice, and we only give that which is the conversation of the library and reading rooms, which are the resorts of the respec tability, of this city. The rumours as to the result of the trial are as various as they possibly ca .be, and no settled opinion appears to have been formed. There are those who are always anziousao turn the ready penny, and have betted considerably upon the event; and it is hinted that a certain very fashionalee house in London has forwarded some of itsfinny tribe to fish or speculate upon the occasion. The case is undoubtedly considered a very interesting one, as involving a very important question at law, whether a marriage, under such circumstances, be or be not legal ? and as there is no similar case upon re cord, the decision, upon general ground, will be of very great importance. it is said (we may also mention the rumour), that if any difficulty arise, it will be left for the comideration, if necessary, of the t aelve Judges. Tile only case approaching anything like the present occurred in I:eland about twenty years ago; it was the abduction of Miss Ptke (the sister of the banker, who died some months ince),. of Cork, by Sir Henry HAW The abduction was the result of a manoeuvre, accom panied by force. However, no legal marriage took place, and the lady was recovered by her friends; and at a subsequent period, Sir Henry Hase was apprehended, tried, convicted, and received sentence of death, which sentence was commuted to fourteen years' transporta. tion, which term was served by Sir Henry, and he has returned to his native country. Mr. Wakefield lives very retired in the Castle, and is busily occupied pre paring his defence. The two men, Alexander and Michael M'Keand, charged with the dreadful murder at Burton-upon- Irwen, have since their confinement continually devoted themselves to prayer, in anticipation of the dteadful fate that awaits them. MAIDSTONE, Auo. Joseph Fin* was indicted for feloniously sending a letter to George Gregory, Esq. at Willesborough, on the Bth of June, demanding 20 sovereigns, and threaten ing to murder him unless he complied. The indictment charged the prisoner with sending tl the same party another letter of the same import, dated 11th of June. On the application of the prisoner's counsel, the counsel for the Clown were desired to confine their proof to the first count, on the ground that two distinct felonies could not be charged in the same indictment. It appeared in evidence that the prosecutor, a Gentle man of fortune, lately returned from India, had taken up his abode at VVillesborough, near Ashford. On the Bth of Jtine he received by the'Geneial Plist the follow. :ne anonymous letter, which, for orthography, presents a singular specimen of epistolary composition ; " 1 have wrote a Few lines to you, and i im in great distress all throe you, for you have a time back angered me of all my pro perty; and now, if not by good will, I must by bad, have 20 suf ferens of you, and you must put them at a private place for me, for if you dont, i will be the death of you in some way or other; if i cant do it slyly, I will de it in the middle of the day, or in the night, or the first upertunety ; sad if you say anney thing about this, i will mender you the same 'as if you dpnt put it there: look down aside your front wall and door post, and move the durt, you will find a small purse ; put the syfferens in it, suture it again at the Same place: if you wish to live, 46 it ; for if you dont, prepare for death; for your time will be short ; for hear is four of us, and if you put it there, and say nothing about it, fear not: As .00n as you receive the letter, put it there, and dont let me hear of it again; for if i do, i will not go back of my words; so do it, and then 1 will never interfear with you ; but if you dont, you may de- tend upon it i will be the death of you now. Dont you disappoint me, for 1 dam it you wont rue." The piesecutor took no steps to comply with the de "ind thus expressed. On the 11th of June he received, the following communication, in the same hand-writing, • end through the like channel : * I have wrote to you and more for 20 sufferent,nntl you may de pend on it that i will murder you if you dont put it there, so dont Omer your self. fur I mean to do it. i wrote to you once hefore, and told you that to look down aside your new wall door post at the front of your bogie, arid take the dont away there you will hint a small Purse, put the sufferers in it, and secure it again at the same plate. &if you duet k ant be dant) 1 dmit y ,u, 4 ' 4 if I 1 "w oh it again I wil; murder you the J.IIIIV. LICUSC n:y Upon receiving_ this eomtuuttication, the prosecutor' caused the earth near-sieieirif.the pos•s of his outward! gate to be searchet.artitin a hole was found a small] bag, resembling's( .watch • fob.;, A few halfpence Wese l then put-into the bag, and it was Depletes' in its firmer sins tints, covered with earth, as before.: Ile then gave directions to. his servant to watch the spec, and appre hend any person mho came for the bag. Between nine and ten o'clock the same evening, the servant who was on the watch perceived the feet of a man approaching thegate. The man stooped down; and, after removing the earth, took the bag out of the hole in which it had been placed. The 'errant immediately rushed out and seized the prisoner, with the bag in his. hand. The pri soner became alarmed, and begged to be allowed to go, and offered to give the servant a guinea. Faithful, however, to his trust. the servant took him prisoner, and brought him into the presence of the prosecutor.— The prisoner desired a private conference with the prosecutor, which, being denied, he said he did not write the letters, but that be knew who dia. and offered to conduct him to the writer, though he did not know his name ; this was declined. When brought before the Magistrates, he gave a different account of the matter, saying. that in passing the prosecutor's gate. he saw the servant hiding the bag near the gate, and tempted by the supposition that money was contained in it, he had gone in the evtbilis and taken it in the manner described, being wholly ig norant of the contents of the letter which had been !mot to the prosecutor. He then gave directions to the con stable to search his box at his father's honse, about half a mile from Willesborough. The constable obtained the key from the prisoner's mother, and on searching the box found half a sheet of paper; corresponding exactly with the half sheet ori which the letter first sent to the prosecutor wes written. It was proved that this paper had been purchased by the prisoner at a shop in Wines borough, about the time the letter was dated. In the prisoner's box was found a copy-book, with his name written in it in several places, and the second letter ap peared to have been written on one of the leaves taken from the same book. The prisoner, in his defence, denied all hone/ledge of the letter or of its contents. • Mr. Justice Houton* summed up the evidence, and left the Jury to determine whether they were satisfied 'MU the prisoner bad sect the letter which was the subject of the present indknpent. The Jury, alter a short deliberation. found she prisoner BODPdIN, Avant 4. THE ZIXO V. THOMAS TRIDIZAIIIIK THE EMIGRE. This was an indictment charging the defendant with wilful and corrupt perjury. From the speech of Mr. Setjeant WILDS, who loathe case for the prosecution, and trom the evidence after wards adduced, it appeared that this was one of those cases which so frequently grow out of borough elec tions; the present related to the borough of St. Ives, in this county. At the general election, in 1820, there was a contest for the borough, Sir Walter Stirling and a Mr. Meade standing on the interest of Sir Christopher Hawkins; and Mr. Graham (now Sir James Graham) and Mr. Evelyn on that of Mr. Halo, the prosecutor of this indictment. Mr. Heise is an attertsey, is town clerk, and is now himself the Member for the borough. On the occasion of 1820, the candidates in the interest of Mr. Halle were returned of course, to the great dis satisfaction of those who bad opposite feelings or inte rests. That dissatisfactinn 'hewed itself, in one respect, in the , fdrm of an indictment against Mr. Halle, charging him with offering tcs bribe and corrupt an -elector, named James Richards. Mr. Hasa was tried on this indictment at the Spring Assizes of 1822,and convicted on the evidence of Richards, his wife, his son, and his , son in law. The arnbunt of their evidence was, that they beard Mr. Hale say to Richards, " It will be a double return--401. more." This conversation, it was said, took place in a court-yard otitside "Richards's house. Mr. liaise afterwards, on inql4iiy,Toond•that at the date which was given to this asserted conversation, . Richards did not live in any house with aviitift-yard before it, but in a house-farming part of the - line of a street. Upon proving this by affidavit, to the satisfac tion of the Court of King's Bench, they ordered a new trial; and Mr. }false was afterwards acquitted fdr want of prosecution. But it was in this late stage of the pro ceediugs (the argument for the new trial) that the pre sent defendant introduced himself. He made an affidavit in support of Richards's statement,• and in denial of Mr. Halse's, positively stating, that at the time - in question Richards did live in the house with the court yard before it; and upon the fact so stated by Richards, and so repeated by the defendant, the present indict inent was founded: ' Theternial evidence belay adduced to let in the Inquiry on this indictment, Mr. Hahn was called, and positively denied the as. sertion of Richards altogether. He bad called on Richards in his house in the street, which was not at all in view of the other house with the court-yard before it; but this was merely a compliment which is ispected by the ladies at election time. He denied ever bevies rated any thing to the effect sworn to by Richards. He never was in the house with the court before it, during any part of the election. _ _ A number of witnesses then proved very dearly, that at the time. sworn to by Richards he hag left the bow with the toort•yard before it. • • hie. C. F. WILLIAMS. for the defendant, .admitted that his client must have been mistaken, but submitted that it was, on his part, nothing mart than misdate. He had been led into, it by the fact that Aithitrefi had re moved from the house with the court-yesOefore it only a short time before the day in question; that it was let to Richards 's daughter ; that Richards was frequently there, and WAS seen the' e by the defendant dories the time of the• election. These. facts were relied upon to account for the mistake; and with them was urged the improbability that a young man, respectably connected, would wilfully swear to a falsehood, as to a fact which could be contradicted by so many witnesses. Several witnesses were called, who proved the above facts ; and the defendant, who it :be sun of the Comptroller •ot St. Ives, n. ceived a very good character from Sir Walter Stirling and other. Mr. Justice Ltrzt.xnaut summed up i the evidence, leaving it to the Jury to decide whether the defendant really did believe the feet to which he swore, or no:. The Jury, after an hour's deliberation, acquitted'the defendant. The ind•etmeets against the Richards family, arising out of the same transaction, remain until the neat Italia's, the Learned Aids, being obliged to proceed to Wells. GLO UcESTER, Avoess 7. Nine o'clock was expressly fixed this morning by Mr. Justice lions.ouom for hearing the cause of Doe, on the demise of Straford and morn, plAintiffs, v.•Ltw rence, defendant," which involves a property to a very large amount, and under singular ci:cumstances. Mr. SCARLLTT, who was Specially reta ned (with the aid of a full bar } for the defendant, arrived ye.terday from Carlisle, anden:vet! the Court at a varier before nine o'clock this m mint, when the JuJge took his seat ; but to the utter disappointment of the imm e n se' throng, cornmeal chiefly of Ladies, vho had been en- T during, for hours before the Court was opened, itgaroy4nees of a , eroadias thi passages of the Serjeant WILD!, OI L was : specially attained islaiutiff, had not attired from his Circuit at Exeter, .When the cause' veal called on.. Mr. Cutworm and said, that he had an important application to the Court, for the postponement; for a short time, ofl this cause. He and his brethren were taint led by Mat Wilde, who had accepted a special retainer, who bad .written on Saturday respecting the conduct of the camel, who was spoken to at Exeter on the same day by one oil the Counsel, and who had arranged to be in Gloucester . yesterday evening. A special messenger had also goae to him at Exeter, and every arrangement was made for his opening the ease. Unfortunately, this hour had arrived, but not the Learned Serjeant, nor any informs. tion ,the cause of this circumstance. As he had posi tieely. fixed to be het; there could be no reason for his l 'absence, but some inevitable accident or obstructive upon his journey. He (Mr. Curwood) knew very well the inconvenience to Lis Learned Friend Mr. Starrett of even the shortest additional delay from the northern circuit; still he had hoped that, under the very peculiar circumstances, be would permit the case to stand over till tomorrow morning, or a: least that some cause would be called on first this day. Mr. Justice BttattotlGH said that the application was i'very'iwk ward one, for he had on Saturday night ad journed a very important cause until Wednesday, to devote these two days (Monday and Tuesday) to this particular case, to which it was known two Gentlemen were to arrive specially from distant circuits. • Mr. Scum= said that, with every disposition to consult the personal convenience of his Learned Friend, Mr. Serjeant Wilde, he could not consent to the re quired postponement, for he was so 'placed elsewhere, that he must make a large part of his journey north ward to-morrow. He was happy to find, however, that the plaintiff's case could not suffer, as it was in the hands of a Learned Gentleman (Mr. Curwood) of well-known seal and ability. The COWLe cleaned any farther postponement. Mr. Co!moor, declared, that he had no alternative, in the situation in which he was placed, but to withdraw the cause, for be could not venture,. on such an emer gency, to take the.responsibility, at the imtant, of open. ing it: The cause was accordingly withdrawn, and the two days' occupation and entertainment which it was expected to afford was necessarily abandoned with the greatest reluctance, by.the dense auditory who had as sembled from Cheltenham and the surrounding depots for loungers, who had expected to fill this portiun of their time in a Court of Justice. • The greatest confusion consequently arose in the Arrangement of other business. The attornies, depend. ing on the arrangement that this eau se and the adjourned one would at least occupy the Court till late on Wed nesday night, had. to save expense, sent home many of their witnesses. At length. some business was arranged to fill the time of the Court. The property at issue between these parties is called the flandywell estate, and the defendant is possessed of it under the will of an unmarried woman of the name of Trio%belle --Sasedywell, and the adjacent property, was, in ancient times, called Andifield, and belonged to the extensive Lordship of Gloucester, in the year 1283. In thebeginning of the seventeenth century, this land was purchased by William Rogers; and from his de. seendants, in 1680 1 it seas bought `by a Mr. Brett, who razed the old mansion and wood the present on its sire. In laying the foundation, several old leaden coffins were discovered, which were supposed to have been Roman ones. The son of this Mt. Brett subse. quently sold the new mansion to Henry, Lord Conway, whose successor, the Earl of Hertford, sold it again to a Mr. Tracey, from whom it came, by purchase, to Sir William Dodwell, Bart. of Sevenchamp, in this county, and be died intestate in the year 1798, leaving this and other property to a large amount, to be claimed by his heir-at-law, who was then unknown. At length, after a series nf years, and much inquiry, the heiress was traced to the eldest of three sisters, named Trimbell, the youngest of Whom was the lait survivor; and it is the validity of a second will, made by the last person, which is now misuse. She was said to have been a basket woman, in Fleet Market or Billingsgate, but her real situation pas that of a servant to a poulterer in the former place. It appeared that this poor woman had been Occasionally employed by a Ladj of the name of Thompson, who resided in the city of London, and treated with huma nity and kindness in the days of her distress, while no human being.dreiurit of her family descent. Two soli citors at Chatiiiham took uncommon pains to trace the heirsbip„, which they did in favour of this female, after years of litigation. There were then three sisters of the Trissibells; and they were put in formal possession of this extensive property. They went down to the estate, but never inhabited the mansion. The surviving sister, recollecting the humanity shewn her by Mrs. Thomp ion's family, made a will in their favour, and the pro. petty passed into their hands after her death. Another will was afterwards found, and the poor woman, whose habits were intemperate, is charged with having made one of these wills in a moment of unconsciousness and Incompetency. No waist was received La Court of the eagle of Mr. Serjeant Wilde's absence at a Late hour its the day. He had, it was add, remised & brief with a retainer of 500 gulags% and the usual rietiewss.

He Red to an inn at Bourg la Reine. Having returned to Paris on the nightbetween the9ch and 10th of the same month, after wandering about sill.day.light, he obtained an asylum at the house of one of his friends, whose hos pitality he had implored for the moment. He was arrested in a few hours, and a cord with a running noose was found upon him, apparently Intended to en able 'him to commit suicide. On his examination he appeared peffectly calm, and answered the questions of the President with much precision and frautnen.

The prisoner %vs re ceived, About the year 1818,into the office of M. Roths child, in the capacity of a dark. His salary fixed at first at the usual rate, soon rose to 8,000 francs (about .3200 a year ; but whatever might be the advantages of touch a situation, the financial operations which Reymond witnessed, and the considerable sums of money which were continually passing through his hands, soon in flamed his avarice to such a degree as to lead him into speculations on 'Change which his personal means did .not enable him to support. As I e was cashier for sia years in what is called the Neapolitan . office, and enjoyed in the highest degree the confidence of Baron , Rntlischild, he had constantly large funds at his disposal, and particularly• tne dividends of the Neapolitan Loan.
