LANCASTER, AUGUST 18. • At nine o'clock this morning, Andrew Riding was' put to the bar, and arraigneJ for feloniously, wil fully, and maliciously cutting Samuel Rcwrocks, Esq. with intent to do him some grievous boditf hum, by wounciihg him with an iron cleaver, on Sunday, the 27th, of July lag, at Preston, in this county. There wete several counts in the indictment, varying the form of description. The prisoner pleaded, " Not Guilty," in a firm voice, and added, in answer to the usual interrogation of how he. would be tried, " I suppose by GOD and my country." fie is a slight young man, twenty-three years of age, with a re markably shrewd expression of features, pale, thin, and actively made; he exhibited a constant elasticity of mental feeling, knitted his brow occasionally at the delivery of parts of the evisianee,-and was lathe frequent action of moving from one side of the dock to the other; anclat times projecting his body so for ward (he was a little deaf), as to be almost entirely out of the dock, and upon the shoulders of the people in front. His gesture, while speaking / was peculiarly animated ; indeed, at times violent. His diction was free, and rather above that of the ordinary class of society to which he belonged; his reasoning was mostly consecutive, when he spoke, and patts of his cross-examinations were acute. His manner was throughout not only unembarrassed, but when he first entered the Conic, marked by extreme levity. He looked around upon the multitude assembled with a laugh upon his countenance, noddesi fami liarly at some whom he recognised, particularly one female in the gallery (his mother, we believe), who was in tears and sobbing loudly ; he shook his head, as to upbraid her, but without evincing the smallest sympathy, for his laughter continued, and he em ployed himself in eating apples voraciously. He was, dressed plain and decent, and held in his hand a Newspaper, and a bundle of manuscript; to which, however, he made no reference. The avenues of the Court were crowded to excess so early as eight o'clock, and a number of persons had improperly obtained private admission before the doors were thrown publicly opens. When they were unfolded, the rush was tremendous, and the Court was filled in an instant, in such a manner as to create during the whole day the most inconvenient pressure. Soon after nine o'clock, Mr. Justice BAILEY took his seat on the Bench. • Mr. SCARLEtT stated the case to the Jury. He detailed the whole particulars of the attack upon Mr. Hor rocks by the prisoner, at Preston, on Sunday, the 27th of July last (which we have already given in our statement of that transaction soon after it oc curred, and which it is unnecessary to recapitulate here, as it will be found in detail in the following evidence). The Learned Gentleman remarked, that he feared the attack, and the deadly object of it, would be brought too home to the prisoner to admit of either denial or justification. An attempt might ' perhaps be made to prove him insane; but the Jury would look with very great caution at such a mode of shielding a desperate offender from justice: if, however, a case of insanity were clearly made out, the law fortunately provided a mode of protecting the Public in future from the attacks of such a man. He was instructed by Mr. HOffOCkS to say, that all he asked' was, for a calm investigation of the affair ; he deprecated any undue severity, and only wished Id have the prisoner's condition fully and properly at certaiiied, having the fullest confidence that the Jury would decide with calmness, patience, and humanity. The first witness called was Samuel Horrocks, Esq. M.P. examined by Mr. Sratima.—l was at the Preston Parish Church on Sunday, the 27th July, and afterwards went to call upon Mr. Miller, my partner. This was nearly one o'clock in the day. The road I had to go was a gravel coach road ; at Mr. Miller's there is a side gate for foot pasEengers to go up to the house. I was in the act of opening the gate, when I received a blow on the top or my head. Not suspecting anybody, I thought something had fallen down from the place upon me ; it was imme diately followed by a tremendous blow on the back of my head. Finding myself then wounded, I turned round on my left, and saw the prisoner with an up lifted cleaver, ready to strike again : he said—" I'll kill too." The prisoner.—My Lord, may. I be allowed to ark him one question-! The Cousit.—Not yet. Mr. Horrocks resumed.—He struck again with all 'his force, and I had just time to lift up my left arm; lie struck three, it not four times after that, in all Ilk or seven times. The latter blows fell on difirsit i parts of my arm, and one inside my . left hand. I thought I had knocked the, cleaver out of his hand, as it flew about two yards from him. He ran 'to wards it and attempted to take it up . agaso ; but I rushed forward and succeeded in getting it. He then looked round as if for another weapon, all thougho o , ,and finding nothing on the spot, he ran ninny. I then: called out to the people to strap him, and he . was stopped before he got out of my sight ; he was after wards taken somewhere. I went in, bleeding ' much, to Mr. Miller'i house. I had thetleaver :T e a me when he was taken, but I gave it away, to whelp I do net know, owing to the state of confusion iota which the attack threw me. The following letter was then handed to witness, and he said he received it on the 4th pf April ; it rq-;' =tined in his custody ever since. He threw it by, us . it was anonymous. The letter was RS foibles: " Sta—lf you do not advance the wages of cetton4pinning. et least 20 per cent. you may expect your life to be taken away by a eetton.spianer from Llaschester.

DIAL WEIGHING DIACHINES. MARRIOTT having obtained his Majesty's AA* ltoyal Letters Patent, for an improvement iu Weighing Machines. begs leave to recommend them to the Public, as the most perfemand useful article for that purpose ever constructed ; for accuracy, simplicity, expedition, and portability, it stands unrivalled, as It miraerty chews the exact weight of any article from One Ounce to a Tun, without the use of Weights, thereby saving time and labour. Deism perfectly portable, it may be used in any situation—its universal utility must therefore be un- , deniable for Dumvstic purposes; in Shops, Warehouses, Coach Offices, Market Houics, Barns; on Wharfs ; at Races and Faire; ' ; for Cattle, Corn, Hay, *Wool, site.; or for Loading heavy Art/. eles, it may be attached to the chain of a crane, and shew Weight at the time of craning; it may be also made with a chair to weigh Persons. From its extreme simplicity, it is scarcely possible to be inaccurate; yet, if it ever should be so, there is an adjusting Screw which will momentarily correct it. H. hlwaniart begs to Caution the Public against several Spu rious Imitations of his excellent and useful Invention, which are attempted to be introduced; none are on his genuine Patent Principle that have not a label with his name over the King's Arms. H.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1823. ~f Urt~~w ~~.~~Gy . -;.? • - ‘,-, , , I \ • .. --r. , •• _ oi; . 0114,,xti [PI: SEVEN-i'EN( to brae their lives ; but you are it h uitl, and I believe it is true, the wore of them all ; therefore your hie must go firs:, snithe rest in rotation." The post-mark upon this letter seas Manchester, April S. 1823, and it was addressed to Samuel Ilur rocks, 51.i 3 . Lark-hill, Preston, Lancashire. Cross-examined by Mr. J01423.-I never saw tl:e prisoner before in my life, to my recollection ; there had been no personal quarrel of any kind be tween us; the time of people returning from church on Sunday is necessarily a very public part of the day; but I wish to add, that just at that moment there were not many in the street ; it was neverthe less a puislis,tinie enough; on my way to Mr. Mil ler's I bad t o go down the public street; I never ob served the prisoner following me—indeed, I thought no one was near at the time. Iu as walking very slowly; the occurrence took place in sight of all the "windows in front of the house; it might have been seen by anybody who happened to be at a window, for it occurred as I entered the front gate. I never heard, however, that anybody did overlook the at tack, but I heard it was se-n from a window in ano.. cher house; it must have been within sight of the. windows of several houses, and of several cottages.. After I had secured the cleaver, he (the prisAner) ap peared to me to look about for some other weapon. He was taken before he quitted my sight. I did hot hear him say, 4 . Take me, take me," alter he had run some yards. I thought he attempted to get on, and not stop, when he was about 20 yards from me. I was, no doubt, surprised and astonished at the assault.— I cannot say that . the man looked wild, but he was certainly very furious. I could suggest no motive at the instant for such an attack. There had been, two years last Spring, what is called a "turn-out" of the spinners; but that had been settled at the time, and I am not aware of any recent quarrel of the same kind between master and man. When that turn-ont took place, it was not confined to one class of ss or k men, but was general against all masters. 1 cannot say how many masters were affected; perhaps fifteen or sixteen different houses. The letter alluded to I received in April. I did not know it was written by the prisoner until heacknowledged it, and until I had compared it with the letters he had written to me since. The prisoner, the moment the letter was put into his hand in my bed-room on the day after, said it was his hand-writing. Prisoner.—Did) ou see the letter put into my hand ? Mr. Jonas.—Prisoner, stop; don't interrupt my examination. Mr. Horrocks resumed.—He certainly had the let ter long enough in his hand to see what the nature of it was. His admission was in these words— , It is my writin i . and I put it myself into the Manchester post-office." gate of Mr. Miller's I.ou - se was 4.00 yards from the church, And along the public siro.s, where I stopped.a little, thinking I might meet Mr. Miller there; this stoppage allowed the church crowd to subside, so that I cannot say there were satiny peo "le near the spot at the time. The cleaver might be concealed in a man's coat pocket. When the man was taken, I heard that he avowed and justified the ;act, but I did not hear hint, as he was instantly taken out (Amy sight. I cannot suggest or conjecture any season for the attack. I believe he is a Paeans man, but I have no recollection of ever seeing him before. On the following day the prisoner was brought to my bed side. I was then in a very distressing •itua: den from my wounds ; bat I don't lumov that the prisoner exulted at my situation.' My shirt and clothes, hi the state in which they were . ftom the effu sion of blood, were not exhibited to him in my bed room. The man was asked if he was not sorry frr the condition in which he found me ? He itplied, " No, lam rather relieved." He WAS in the bed-room a quarter of an hour. but I 'dbn't itialect that he said anything more; he did not noisy pretence refer to some passages in Scripture in juitification of his, at' tack, nor exhibit any wildneis of manner ; hiSapPia:- ance looked to me as sensible as that of any other Man in the room. I did not see him since mina Saturday last, when I accidentally saw him in theCtut ile. The cleaver was flat tharp, but at 1 it cot; .I don't apprehend that it had received any particular sharpening fcr use at.tbe time. Cross-examined by the prisoner.—You say, Mr. Hisrroeks, ,that immediately after I struck you I said " I would kid you ?" —I have answered that already. After I struck yoo,did I not look at your head, and then down upon the ground, in this way? (The prisoner accompanied his words with significant gestures.) When the prisoner rose, after attempting to regain the cleaver, be than looked at me, as well as I can recollect, and turpsul round, looking about him as I thought for something the to strike me with, as I had postillion of his cleaver ; he seemed to be searching for some other weapon,• and node bang them, be ran SWay. After I struck at you, and the weapon fcU from me, you saw as clam no doubt I—lies, I did. Then did I nut look at you,.first at you! bead, and then down wards on the ground, three or tour times ?—1 do not recollect. How long do you suppose the cleaver lay un the ground bultare you took it up ?—A very few seconds. Was it not Sit seconds nothing near that from first to last. Yon did not sire tue attempt to take up the cl while 'it lay on the ground, before you grasped It ?—Yes, I did, indeed. Will you be so good, Mr. Hurrocks, as to describe to his Lord ship the manner in which you say I endeavoured tptake up the ckaver.
