THE SUPERANNUATION BILL. TO 1 A. & WORTLEY. ES YO Q. M K. .P. FOR THE COUNTY - 01? R - - - - Si have' felt inclined to address you on the Superannuation Bill now pending in Parliament for some time past, but have deferred it until this day, in hopes that some one more able to do justice to the :abject would have undertaken it ; however, as no one has come forward on behalf of our employment, I deem it necessary to use my humble pen in the cause, and shall endeavour, in as brief a manner as possible, to communicate a few facts, which I have no doubt will cause your independent voice to be head in the House ct Commons as the advocate of a few poor Excisemen, in protecting them from in jury and oppression. Soon after the establishment of the Excise, it was deemed necessary to have a fund for the support of old, infirm, worn-out officers, and in consequence a deduction was made from all salaries fdr its support. 'The fund was under the management of the Ho nourable Commissioners of Excise, and no person was allowed to receive any relief therefrom, unless he was totally unfit for service, and not then, unless he swore himself not worth 1001. The allowance u wally granted under these circumstances was 161. per annum ; and, from the smallness of the annuity, and the before-mentioned regulations and oath, very few persons ever derived any benefit from it, conse quently our fund became very considerable, and re mined to our use until about the year 1810, when the Right Honourable the Chancellor of the Ex chequer caused an Act to be passed transferring it (which then amounted to the sum of 250,0001.) to Vie reduction of the National Debt, and giving us in lieu thereof the benefit .of the general Superannua tion Act; this gave us universal satisfaction, and every heart expressed itself grateful, and continued so until the present pending Bill was introduced into the House of Commons. -I: will not attempt to describe the general dissatis faction that immediately shewed itself amongst us, on.learning from the public papers that we should be again called upon to contribute to the new fund, without any allowance being made for the 250,0001. transferred so recently to the nation's use; and I have this last week actually had deducted from my salary 5 per cent. on the last quarter's salary for the said fund, by the Honourable Commissioners order. I do not scruple the power of the Treasury to re duce our poor salaries of 1001. per annum to any sum they may think proper—such a reduction we must have submitted to, and must have deprived our families of some of the few comforts of life which we now enjoy, in order to support them in decency; but I hope the state of my country is not such as even to require this sacrifice from a few poor indi viduals, who, I believe, are generally admitted to be inadequately paid for their laborious and not un important services to their country ; but I cannot silently submit to see a fund which would nearly support the whole of the superannuated Excise ()In cas in the kingdom taken from us, on the pledge andlaith of our being in future, in old age, sup ported by our country, and that pledge violated, without protesting against this assumed right, in the names of myself and brother officers ; for the Right Honourable the Chancellor of the Exchequer may, with equally as much justice, apply to the country's use the subscriptions and funds of every Benefit So ciety in the kingdom, as that of ours, which was totally of a private nature, and therefore ought to have been considered as sacred. These facts will bear inquiry, and challenge inves tigation. 1 believe the fund to have exceeded consi derably what I have stated, but not having docu ments to shew the -amount, I •have candidly stated that reference to the Act is necessary on that point. With regard to the best course to be pursued in obtaining, us redress, I leave to your superior wis dom and discretion, having full confidence in ob taining your friendly aid and assistance, and trust that no apology will be deemed necessary for this intrusive letter from a York, July 30, 1112% YORKSHIRE EXCISEMAN. 7 w71 5 P. T..,,., ~-~... The remains of Mr. BROOFSHOOPT, Deputy Marshal and Clerk of the Rules of the King's Bench Prison, whose humanity to the unfortunate was so well known in the important situation which he filled that the pen of the panegyrist is not needed, were interred yester day, in a vault in St. George's Church in the Borough. The funeral took place at nine o'clock in the morn ing, and was followed by the son of the deceased, Messrs. GIBRONS, HewITT, PARISH, &C. intimate friends who valued private worth, and a multitude of mourners. A more general sympathy has rarely occurred. Fter..--Saturday evening, about nine o'clock, a fire broke out at Mr. JOIINSON'S, corn-dealer, in the London-road, Newington. The enigma' wtre prompt in their attendance, but the house was consumed.

I _ i Mr. MICRYWIATIIIR opened the pleadings, w hich in substance stated that this was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover damages from the defen dant, for the infamous seduction of the plaintiff's wife. The damages were laid at £5OOO. Mr. ADAM, in stating ,the case for the plaintiff, said, that Captain Seeley was in the Bombay Artil lery, in the East India Company's service, in which he had entered before the year 1812; and it was a department of the military service of India, which had, as all who were acquainted with the events of I that 'province kne*, achieved the most brilliant ex- ploits. The defendant, Captair. Moore, was upon the same service, and acquainted with the plaintiff; perhaps there was no degree of friendship between them—but at all events he was the plaintiffs brother Officer. In 1812 the plaintiff married the unfortu nate subject of the present action—Miss Mary Anne Price, a young lady of considerable personal beauty, and of mind and accomplishments sufficient to win I and retain the affections. The plaintiff lived wit h her for. a considerable time in the utmost conjugal happiness, and had by her, before she left India, three daughters. He should not be able to shew the whole of their lives in India, but he would call a respectable Vlergyman, who would prove, that for the time which he resided with them they lived together in the mod perfect harmony and affection. For another period, whilst the plaintiff was necessarily absent on ' service in the Persian Gulf, he should produce letters to shew that she' maintained for him all the affection and regard that could be wished for. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to read a number of passages from various letters to the plaintiff, chiefly upon the affairs of the family, all of thessebreathing a tender and affectionate tone towards the 'plaintiff, and speak ing in warm terms of her three children. The letters, as the Jury would see, were doubtless upon little sub jects, but it was from little subjects that they could best gather the state of life in which the parties lived. In 1819 the health of Mrs. Sealey and of her three chil dren became so much impaired, as to render a change of climate necessary, and as her husband was bound upon his service, she embarkedalone for England with her children, and the passage was one of unusual length. They touched at the Mauritius and at the Cape of Good Hope; and during the voyage Mrs. Sealey was delivered of her fourth child, a daughter. —The defendant, Captain Moore, came home in the same ship ; and, unfortunately, the Learned Counsel said, he should not be able to shew the Jury what took place during the voyage, or by what course of artifice the defendant succeeded in estranging the affections of Mrs. Sealey'; but it was evident that he had availed himself of every advantage of his situa ition, and that the presence of her infant and- her children, which would, to an ordinary person, have rendered her sacred, formed no obstacle to the base defendant, in his purpose of seducing the wife, if not of his friend, at least of his brother Officer. The Jury would find that from the day of her arrival in England, is August, 1819, she was constantly with the defendant. They would find that they lodged and lived together, in the same house, without having recourse to the society or visiting any of their rela tions. In November they were at Exeter, where Mrs. Sealey took lodgings at the lodging-house of a Mrs. Frost, where the defendant immediately after intro duced himself as a cousin, and took contiguous apart ments. From thence they both removed to the house of a lodging-house-keeper named Jacobson; and after making various removals, always together, the defendant took a house near South Molton, at a place called Cockrun, where Mrs. Seeley went, and they lived together with less restraint—in short, as man and wife. It would be proved that Mrs. Sealey began to assume appearances of the most decisive nature in December, 1820, when she suddenly lett South Molton, in company with. the defendant, and went to France, from whence she returned in about a fortnight so much altered in her person, as to leave but little doubt that in her absence she had been brought to bed. In this state they continued to live, and were up to that instant of time living together. Lieutenant-Colonel Adam Hawke, of the Bombay Infantry, was the first witness called. He knew the plaintiff, Captain Seeley ; he was at Bombay in 1812, and was present at his marriage with Mary Ann Price, who was born at Bengal. She had lived at Bengal under the care of Mr. Jones, her guardian, and was by him educated; and the witness believed they re turned to Mr. Jones's. Witness had seen film Seeley write, and he believed some letters which were produced to be in her head-writing. Cross-examined.--Mrs. Seeley was about eighteen years old when she was married. The plaintiff was now about forty-eight, and must therefore have been about thirty-eight when he was married to Miss Price, then eighteen. Witness married the sister of Mrs. Seeley. Mrs. Seeley had a brother in India at the time of the marriage, but he knew nothing of it ai the dine.— Mr. Hungerford gave her away. The Rev. James Biers stated, that he knew the plaintiff and his wife in India, in 1816. They had three daughters. They were living at Surat, at the time witness knew them, in tents,. I was about a month there, on a visit to Captain Seeley, and they appeared to me to li ve on terms of perfect hammy and comfort. Captain Moore was Commissary of Stores, an ap pointment connected with the Artillery. Captain , It. Veal stated, that he was in India from 1791 to 1814, and knew Captain Seeley well, as he went out with him. In 1813 be was Introduced to Mrs. /kaki, who Hying at her guardian's. Witness was living in this eity was (il vin t e li r ) at the present time, and in November,lBl9, when he saw Mrs, Seeley at the house of Mrs. Cross, a lodging-house, where Mrs. 8 introduced Captain Moore to him as a felloW-passengerofl:aleY er'& He saw Mrs. Seeley afterwards in January, 1820, at Mrs. Jack son's, in Parry-street, when Captain Moore was with her Mrs. Mary Chene, the wife of the Rev.

Mrs. Jane Jacob son , w h o k eeps a l o d g i ng- h ouse in Th en I street, stated, that Mrs. Sealey and Captain M oore , In January ,- I 1820, took lodgings for herself, her children, and her servant. Captain Moore wad to her, " I think these lodging s 1. very (comfortable, and you cannotdo better Will iiikU.l l l."l7 y le r witnew did fell dies mainsead dud a Gentleman was to be, there • and on she day after it was that Captain Moore and Mill' lode; came again, when the witness overheard Mrs. Seeley oaf ' se Cards, Moon, " You 'an have this ran, and I can have that, train of two opposite rooms. Mrs. fkaky's family came there the neat day, and Captain Moore slept them f or about • &Might,. when he went on a journey to &nth Mel , ton, and returned and lived to the end of de weeks, when went away. In the April following, Captain Moore came again, sad said Mrs. Seeley would be there in • few days. The lodg, lags wets retaken, and Captain Moore said he should weepy the lodgings of Mrs. Sealey for a day or two, until be hid ended some business. He did stay, and left a letter for Mrs. Seeley, whom he had expected from London. Mrs. Seeley did arrive soon after, and Captain Moore followed her, and both set off en a journey together, as it appeared, to South Molton. Tanner, Crcs" accompanied C aptain ne s r i th oore e daanudghNteirrs.of Seel l e r w . M he r. n the latter took the lodgings, and it was in the presence of Miss Tanner that she said, " You can have this room, and I can have that," to the defendant. • Mrs. Catherine Mack stated, that she arrived in England on the 10th of December, when Captain Moore was a passenger. Jane Paul stated that, in 1820, she was hired by-Capt. Moore. at Coekrunrnear South Moulton, as a servant. Captain Moore resided at Cockrun, and Mrs. Seeley came to reside there three weeks after. Captain Moore had before told the witness that a lady was coming from Exeter on a visit, and to put his house in order. Captain Moore escorted Mrs. Sealey there, together with the child and nurse-maid. Mrs. Seeley dept opposite to Captain Moore's room. There were two or three feet between the opposite doors of the rooms. There were two approaches (she described) to these rooms, and if these two doors were locked no one could get to the rooms. These doors were not locked whilst Captain Moore slept there alone, but after Mrs. eSealey came they were invariably locked. The witness tried them. Mrs. Sealey took the charge ever afterwards. Witness remembered the aunt and uncle of the defendant - came to visit hint at Cockrun. Mrs. Sealey left Cock run a day before the uncle and aunt visited it. The uncle and aunt staid a week there, and slept in Mrs. Seaky's room. The doors of the ap-• preaches were not locked at night during the stay of the uncle and aunt, but they were locked again at night when Mrs. Sealey returned after the uncle and aunt were gone. Captain Moore ordered the servants not to mention Mrs. Sealey having been there. The witness observed a continuing alteration in the ap pearance of Mrs. Seeley, and on the 15th of November she left In company with Captain Moore. She returned in about a fortnight, quite changed in her appearance. Witness left them in May, 1821. Cross-examined by Serjeant Pea c—She was single, and had been out of place ever since she had left Capt. Moore's service. She never sought for one. She got her living by her needle.— She feu turned away fur staying late on an errand. The.nurse maid slept sometimes with Mrs. Seaky. Witness tried the doors leading to the room every night during the whole time, and found them locked. She tried them by herself. Thomas bike stated that, on Lady-day, he went to live as servant with Captain Moore. He told the witness soon after his arrival at Cockrun that be was going to have a lady down from Exeter, named Seeley, who had kept a-school there. The witness, who bad been in the East Indies, in a conversation shortly afterwards, mentioned that he knew Captain Seeley, when the defendant mentioned that it was Captain Seaky's wife who was coming. The evidence of the witness was in corro boration of the statement of the last witness as to the rooms, and the defendant and Mrs. Seeley locking up the approaches. Captain Moore kept three maid-servants, and the witness, and a hind. He kept four horses besides, and a hind. Mary Paul lived at South Molton. She said she saw Captain Moore and Mrs. Seaky a month ago together in a gig. Serjeant PELL submitted that the letters could not be received in evidence against the defendant, with out proof that they were written at the time the plain tiff was living with his wife, or at a time when there was no suspicion of her misconduct. A icing legal argument took place upon this point, which was contended far upon the principle that what a wife says or does can never be received as evidence for or against her husband. It was contended by Mr. ADAM, that this was an exception to the general rule of the law. Tne Learned JUDGE was about to give his opinion upon the point, when Mr. ADAM withdrew the letters. I Serjeant PELL, in addressing the Jury for the de fendant, proceeded to comment on the evidence of the witnesses, and particularly on that of line Paul, . I the maid -servant, upon whom the case depended ; and he contended that she, as a discarded serv.int, was not to be believed. Where had the Jury seen anything of the broken-hearted husband upon his return—the husband who sent forth his wife, a young solitary being, a native of India, and a stranger to England, without a guide or servant, and without a friend to protect her? He asked whether this was the way in which affection shewed itself towards a young female, sent to endure the hard hips of a long sea voyage, without attendance or assistance? Mr. Justice BURROUGH read over the evidence, and submitted to the Jury, whether they could pos sibly conceive that any innocent man could have acted so imprudently as to have placed himself in such situations as the defendant had? or whether, from the whole circumstances, they could have the slightest doubt? For himself, he considered the fact of the parties continuing together to the present time as conclusive in itself. The Jury deliberated for about a quarter of an hour, when they returned a •erdict for the plaintiff— damages One :thousand Pounds. Sir Thomas Ackland was the Foreman of the Jury, which consisted partly of Special Jurors, and among them was Sir John Chichester. GUILDFORD, AUGUST 1. DODINGTON V. HUDSON. This was an action for a breach of covenant, the defendant having held a house of tke plaintiff upon lease, next door to another, of which he had become the purchaser. The breach complained of was, that he had removed the old partition which was between the two premises, whereby an encroachment was made of some 22 inches, on the plaintiff's premises. Evidence being given as to the fact of the removal, and as to what it would cost the plaintiff to place the premises in their original state, a verdict was found for the plaintiff for £lOO. SHEARS AND ANOTHER V. WOOD. This cause WAS tried by Special Jury. The plain tiff, having a copper-mill upon the river Wan(lle, com plained that the defendant, the occupier of a silk mill, situated higher up the stream, had constructed a dam, by reason of which the water was kept back, and made to flow irregularly to the plaintiffs' mill, whereby they sustained great injury. Much conflict ing testimony was offered. A verdict was found for the plaintiff—Damages I s. costs 40s. TIIR KING V. EDWARD Mk:RATH. This was an indictment against the defendant for conspiring with one John Maberly to cheat and fraud Sir Thomas Sviymmer Champneys, Bart. of! certain bills of exchange to the amount of D 2500. The defendant, Maberly, had not pleaded; Mr. M'Grath pleaded Not Guilty. On the case being opened against the defendant, the proceedings were stopped in limine, in conse quence of a variance between the allegations in the indictment, and the evidence we forbear, in justice to the defendant, to state the facts opened by Counsel. The indictment alleged, that, on a certain day in De cember, 1 no, thestefendmits conspired to cheat Anal ! 'r defraud Sir T. S. Chantlisien Swt, anj in pu rs u ance of such conspiracy did obtain divers acceptances of Sir 1'; S. Champbeys, Bart. When thel3aropei t cam e to be eiamined, he stated, that his father dij pot die until July, 1821, so that he was not, in point:of fact, Sir Thomas Swymmer Champneys, Bart. at the time of the alleged conspiracy. The ddindant's Counsel objected that thii . iva s a Imisdescription of the prosecutor, and consequently that the indictment must fail. • • The LoabOatav BARON was clearly of opinion, that the objection was fatal, but sent to ascertain the opinion of Mr. Justice Park upon the point, who c os . curring with his Lordship, the Learned Judge di rected an acquittal. Verdict—Not John Forbes Reynolds, a young Gentleman of re ipectable appearance, was indicted for feloniou s ly killing and slaying 'Richard Simmons, at Carshalton, on the 29th of June last, by striking him with his fist. It appeared in evidence that the prisoner had been provoked by the abusivelanguageol the decea,ed. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he ,aa s sentenced to three months imprisonmew.
