• THE YOUNG MOUNTAINEER. (rune esz warm ausaums.) 4MMINi O ye valleys of ice, and ye frost-girted fields, Hew pure is the rapture your atmosphere yields; All my soul seems to mount on the breezes of morn, And no sound is so sweet as the hunter's shrill horn! . Ye sons of pale sloth, in your chambers of rest, Unknown 'mid the circle that nature loves best, Away to your tapers, your tables, and toys,. But ask not, and think not of life's highest toys! How dear is the path that conducts to my shed, When the wild-fowl is torpid, and day-light is fled; And how blest is the day-beam that bids me awake, And repair to the forest, the mountain, or lake! Hark ! the thunder of battle now breaks en my ear ! 'Tis the signal of bliss to the young Mountaineer! Adieu, native mountains, my hamlet, adieu! The hills of the stranger now rise to my view! The trumpet of victory thrills on my soul, . And I'll follow the sound to the furthermost Pole; Then up and away with the dawning of light, Ny arm is for freedom—each nerve in the fight ! Ye tenants of heather, of mountain and fen, Ye pursued and pursuers, ye victims to men I leave ye awhile to your own native shades , To your rocks and your rivers, your hill-tops and glades! Unerring my arrow, fun swift was my spear ' • 'Twas glorious to follow the wild boar and d eer; Thrice glorious the thought in the war-field to roam, And loring back a trophy to welcome me home! Fare thee well, 'owly shed, fondest hope shall be thine, And the prayer of the grateful shall ever be mine; In the triumph of battle the bosom will swell, Though a sigh may enshrine the young hero's farewell! Pure Nature has watcb'd o'er myairling of bliss, And she bids me rejoice in a moment like this; One look more I'll give to the pathway so dea r, Sweetest Ellen!! remember the young Mountaineer ! 111 A. IL THE POLICE OF THE METROPOLIS. 1 • • Mr.MAINWA RING'S Pamphlet on this subject (pnb- I )fished in the last Number of the Pamphleteer), con-' tains much curious information, well deserving of the attention of Government. According to this Magistrate, our present system of laws can „go but little towards the suppression or prevention of thieving, chiefly owing to our defective Police not being able to reach the Receiver of stolen goods. " This system," he says, " has become a science in itself. It •his opened such prospects, and has been productive of so much wealth to its professors, as to call forth ingenuity and fore sight to a degree which is rarely exhibited in the most artfully contrived schemes of commercial avarice. I shall best explain the refinements of these adepts, by a reference to the detail which has furnished me with the knowledge of their operations. It should be observe/1, that exclusive of the notorious receivers of this town, most of whose receptacles are as well known to our Police ~as the fair tradesman with his calling upon his door, there is a description of them who combine an unity of different characters in the same person, who are at once thieves and re e :ivers, and who so contrive their machinations, as to exclude from observation any , point of reachable or vulnerable contact. " Thieves, as well as receivers, lute various houses Where Norm:don is received of any important robbery, which is termed a puf-up Wheu the stolen goods are purchased by the receiver, they arc inpvdiutely removed from his Psown ewelling-house to another, termed the plant; which is, in fzet, his secret ware:louse, and to which the goads capable of ',Ling identified, as well as most others, are conveyed as soon as parc!n Sec'. Sometimes one house" is used for this purpose by two cr more receivers; though both are probably connected, one is generally ignorant of the other's deposit, each having se parate locks to their own doors. " This place is generally kept, or inhabited by a person with some cstersible occupation, who is cognisant of the purposes fir whic:: the receptacle is taken, but who is not concerned in the dealings of those who have placed him there. When a tabllcry has excited much public attention, the plunder is hit:ally kept in this 'dant till the general sensation Lis subsided —then, as opportunities occur, the property is disposed of—it is conveyed to and 1: oni the plant, by means best calculated to pr,:vent oirwrveion and detection—in hackney-coaches, little carts, by p.m ters, upon jack-asses; or by any ordinary means of carrying goods. The great dealers have their own furnaces to niCit 7l.te ittll.7;igl: valuable watches, and other goods ca ut identity, are commonly sent abroad: watches, if kept at home are, as they call it, ' stew christened,' (the gold cases exchanged for silver or common metal); jewellery, trinkets, &c. disposed of to dealers at fairs, linen to hawkers, wearing Ap parel to traders from the country,' who conic to Loudon to y stec. " The obvious advantage of this plant is, that wit:lst plunder lies there in security, and is buried, as they term it, to grate: the dealers have the opportunity of finding, from time to time, the most lucrative means of gradually disposing of the secreted property, and of carrying on their transactions without the ob servation of the l'ublic, or the suspicion of the Police. " Thus it is with these occult and dastard workers of iniquity; he, who in the prosecution of his criminal purpose sets his life upon the cast, may, if his throw be unsuccessful, excite an in voluntary sympathy but what can we feel for these heartless miscreants? they who, if nut the authors, are the promoters of crime, and who, when orce established, keep up the con stant stimulus to its commission ; who fatten alike upon the spoils of poverty or of wealth, and who themselves live the while in comparative security; or, as the law is, (if punished at all), have to experience a fate short of that, by which many, even comparatively children in the ways of sin, have been pre maturely sacrificed to the justice of their country. What hu man punishment is too severe for these wretches? Is, then, no:Ling to be cloLe with them ?—yes, if we deal with them rightly. We have tried law, it has failed; let us then try Police. It is not eas-y to apprehend, it is very difficult to con vict them ; but we may know them, we may become acquainted with their habitations and their hiding places: let us watch them, follow them, mark them down wherever they rat; they must know that we do so : let them constantly [eel this ob servance, and we need net legislate against them ; they will quickly vanish : the eye of Police will he shunned, though the arm of the law may not be dreaded. " A most intelligent Officer, who has made these persons the object of his peculiar attention, has most strongly confirmed to me the foregoing observations. Ile had tried, he said, every thing against the receivers; but he added, in his emphatic language, " Nothing would ever do, buts watching the pit's mouth ;* do that with constancy, and the receivers fall to the ground." Need I then ask, if anything but Police eats do this? or can any harm ensue from the mere vigilance which is hat recommended r-13ut our limits prohibit a longer extract. Sunday se'nnight, the Aberdeen prison was broken, when three criminals confined in it succeeded in effecting their escape. • • . . • • . At the Limerick Special Se.sions, on the 2d instant, Eleanor Galligan was put to the bar, for having, on the 24th of M arch, 'served an unlawful notice on Tho mas Ruddell.

(Signed) " CURIAL Roca, " Commander-in-Chief of the Roman Race." She was found guilty. Upon the announcement *of her fate (says the Freeman's Dublin Journal) by Serjeant TORMINS, she gave herself up to the most vij.tent lamentations, which were re-echoed by the roar ing of her husband outside of the dock, and it was a considerable time before order was restored. She was dressed and comfortable. ASSVES, • . . oLoucznics, APRIL fl• , BREACH OF PROMISE 01? M.A.IIIIIOIL XI to V. CRAWL • ~ Mr. LUDLOW stated, that the dadatation com plained of a breach of promise of smilittea, mg that the defendant had pleaded the general been. • Mr. JERVIS addressed the Jury au the behalf of the plaintiff. They had, he said, heard the nature of the action which they were sworn to try, and which was brought to recover damages for one of the most 'cruel injuries which could be inflicted on the sex. He would, however, restrain his feelings, and state to them the Eyes, which would be proved in evidence, with all die simplicity in his power. Miss Mary. Ann King, the plaintiff, was now thirty-two years of age, but was only twenty-six at the commencement of this' disastrous courtship. She was the daughter of a most respectable man, who obtained his livelihood by the management of a large factory, at a salary of little more than £BO a- ear. Mr. Chance, the defendant. now thirty-eight years of age, and who was thirty. two when he began to address the plaintiff, was a Gentleman of considerable fortune, and of fasci.' nating manners, who had served as a Lieutenant in the Gloucestershire Militia. Attracted, no doubt, by the beauty of Miss King, who moved in an inferior station of life to his own, and who then was success fully attempting to add to the scanty income of her father, by her exertions as a fancy dress-maker, he early in 1815 began to visit her, and to pay her marked attentions. Her father, solicitous for the wel fare of his child, thought it necessary to demand of Mr. Chance the meaning of his visits, and that Gen tleman offered to satisfy him with all the apparent frankness and honour of a soldier. On The invitation of the defendant, they walked together to an inn, called the Old 13401, where Mr. Chance exclaimed, ,‘ What can I say, or what possibly can I do, more than I have done, to convince you of my !mlaut ? May my hand drop from my body, may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if ever I deceive you or your daughter ; and no one but she shall ever call me husband !" These expressions were strong, but they were beautiful, for they were taken in no small 'degree from sacred writ. Mr. King, anxious that the defendant should not rashly pledge himself; reminded him that his daughter would have no fortune ; to which Mr. Chance replied, " I desire no fortune but your daughter—that is all I desire." Mr. King then observed, that he had a mother and relatives who probably would disapprove of the connection ; to which he answered, " I am not a boy ; surely I am old enough to choose for myself. No; neither mother, aunt, uncle, nor any other shall make a choice for me ; I have made my choice, and by that I will abide." But even on this distinct promise he (Mr. Jervis) would not rely ; he would read extracts from a series of letters addressed to the plaintiff during the whole of the protracted courtship, which were full of the strongest and tenderest expres sions of love. In selecting these, he had endea• voured as far as possible to avoid wounding the feel ings of the defendant, for he stood in that Court not to gratify the curiosity of an expectant audience, 1 but to obtain redress for unmet ited sufferings. - . Here the Learned Counsel read extracts from the letters of the defendant, from August, 181.5 to 1819, which expressed the warmest affection, and-while they lamented circumstances which did not permit an 1 immediate marriage, exhorted Miss King to sustain her spirits in the full assurance that a time would come when their mutual wishes would be completed. But in 1319 (continued Mr. Jervi.) his love began to decline. In that year the plaintiff lost her mother, on which occasion the defendant addressed to her a very common-place letter, far different from that which she might have expected from him on an event which left her half an orphan. In the F.:bruary after he wrote to her, intimating that he had no prospect of marriage, and could not think of bringing on her pe nury and wretchedness : but, to his honour, in al lusion to her fears least her reputation should suffer from the breaking off of so long an intimacy, de clared that her character was unimpeachable, and that he would maintain her innocence with his life.— " Never," said he, " did I witness anything from you in word or deed which could raise a blush on the most innocent cheek." What, however, would the Jury think when they heard, that in May,lB2o, after more than five years' courtship, he paid her a visit to inform her that he had formed an attachment to another Lady, named Maria Evans, to ask her con sent to his marriage, and to demand his letters from her hands? On receiving this cruel intimation she fainted, and fell into violent hysterics. Her father, returning home from his daily occupation, rushed into the room, and supporting in his arms his child, doubly endeared to him by the lass of his wife, and by her own sorrows, asked the defendant " what this could mean ?" Mr. Chance replied, " Ask Mary ;" but she was unable at first to speak. " My dear child," laid her father, " speak to me ; what is the matter?' " Oh father," said she, " it will be the death of me," and again fainted. When she recovered, she exclaimed, " Mr. Chance is come here to tell me himself that he has formed a similar connexion with another for some time, and to ask my consent to his marrying her, - and insists on having his letters." Mr. King then asked the defendant how be could think of breaking off a connection which had lasted so long, and demanded if he remembered the promise made to him at the inn? " I don't know that I do exactly," was his answer. His own remarkable expressions were I then repeated to him ; but he only said, " I do not know if it was exactly that." After some time he begged Mr. King to go to his mother at Uley, and to tell her that he would never leave his daughter.— Mr. King accordingly went ; and it was to be feared that this was only an expedient to procure his absence ; for after he was gone Mr. Chance was overheard de manding his letters of the scarcely conscious woman, and threatening to break open every lock in the house if they were not given to Mm. Mr. King returned, after seeing the defendant's mother, and informed Mr. Chance that she had refused to hear him on the subject, as her son had formed a connexion with an other Lady. Shortly after the defendant left the house, and returned no more. In a few days he wrote a note in the coldest terms, again demanding his let ters, and offering to remit those of the . plaintilf,which he represented as disinterested conduct, best 'calcu lated to secure their mutual happiness, On the 9th; tempt would be now made to cast a shade over the ammeter of the plaintiff—be knew better the delicacy of Mr. Puller's mind ; but of this he was sure, that if all her conduct were subjected to the severe:tier*. tiny, and all ber letters exposed to the,world, nothing !timid be found which, in the words of the defendant, a could raise a blush on the most innocent cheek."— In estimating the amount of the damages, there wen many circumstances which they would consider.— They would remember the age of the parties ; the defendant of mature years, and competent to decide for himself; the plaintiff at that period of life when' a protracted courtship, followed by desertion, was an irretrievable injury. Those six long years of deferred hope, could never be compensated in this world. That .beauty which charmed the defendant had faded ; grief had forestalled the ravages of time; for, from that mo ment when he dared to request her consent to an unholy union with another,her health had been utterly broken. Those eyes which he had described in the language of poetry as of " Heaven's own tint," were dimmed with weeping; and that heart which had beaten only with love for him, was exhausted for ever. If he did her the justice to declare that there was no stain on her honour, calumny would still be busy, and in sinuate that alter so long a connection, she was not forsaken without cause. - Who would desire to marry one win) had so long lavished her affections, though innocently, on another? The torch of love was ex hausted, and there was no Promethean heat by which it could be rekindled. She had anticipated an eleva tion in rank ; a participation in the enjoyments which the fortune yf her lover could supply ; the pleasure of an alliance with a Gentleman of a profession whose gallantry and honour justly gave its members pecu liar fascinations in the eyes of the fair. For the loss of these—for an almost broken heart—for ruined health—for a frame brought to the verge of the grave—they would give the only balm within their power to apply, in those ample damages which jus tice required at their hands. .John king, the father of the plaintiff was then sworn, and examined by Mr. TAUNTON. He stated the conversation between the defendant and himself at the beginning of the connection, and the interview in which at was broken off, precisely as they were described by Mr. Jervis. ,His daughter was, he said, in large business as a dress-maker, when Mr. Chance first paid his addresses; but since he had forsaken her, she had been incapable of attending to anything, and her business had therefore declined. She was se altered as to be unlike the person she once was. The witness was so mach affected while giving his evi dence, that he was at times almost unable to proceed. Miss Jane Woodward, who was apprenticed to the plaintiff two months before the connection was broken off, corroborated her father as to her condition at the last visit of the defendant, and her subsequent ill ness. She had slept with her since, and knew that she scarcely obtained any repose. . Eleanor Harris, the maid-servant, overheard Mr. Chance, after Mr. King had gone to his mother, de.- manding his letters, and threatening to break open every door and lock in the house if they were not given to him. He said he would ask the servant for diem. Miss King replied it wouldle useless, for she did not know where they were kept ; and if she did, she would not give them up to him. Miss King was in bed all the next day, and had never been well since. Mr. Chance was in the habit of visiting and walking out with her up to that evening. The letters of the alefendant were then proved arid read : though not without some extravagances, they were feelingly and elegantly written. The death of his mother in March, 1821, and his marriage with Miss Evans, were admitted. Mr. Morgan deposed that he rented the patrimonial estate of the defendant at A:400 a•year. On his cross examination by Mr. CAMPBELL, he stated that Mr. Chance was originally a clothier, but had failed in business, and had afterwards served as a Lieutenant in the- South Gtoutestershire Militia. After the peace he was entirely dependent on his mother for support, and was now tar from affluent. Mr. PULLER then addressed the Jury in mitigation of damages. Ile urged that the connexion ought never to haie subsisted ; that the father ought to have communicated it to the relatives of the defendant; that the plaintiff had lost little in a marriage which would have introduced her into a family who would have treated her for life with anger and bitter scorn; and that the issue was only that which might have been anticipated as the result of a connexion which could only be completed when a mother was laid in her grave. He was authorised by his client most unequivocally to declare, that the conduct of the plaintiff was above all reproach, and that, if any ca lumny had assailed her, it was totally groundless.— This, he thought, would be a better balm to her wounded feelings than those damages which she, or rather her friends, sought to recover. The defendant was now far from rich, and large damages would cause his ruin. Mr. Baron GARROW recapitulated the chief cir cumstances of the case to the Jury. It had been said, he observed, that this connexion ought not to have subsisted. If the plaintiff had been an artful woman, older than the defendant, who had taken ad vantage of his ardour and inexperience to entrap him into an engagement, this would be true; but such was not the case before them. His chief of fence, and it was no slight one, consisted in his conti nuing to pretend affection to the plaintiff, when he was actually paying his addresses to another woman. He had found her in the bloom of life, and in cir cumstances of health and comfort; and left.had ber shattered, forlorn, and hopeless. Tidied not, indeed, deprived her of the consciousness of virtue, for this she had herself preserved ; but it was all he had left her in the world. Damages were an inescient balm for feelings wounded likelier:: but they were all of which the case admitted, and these the Jury were bound to render. They would, however, consider the circumstances of the defendant, and not press him, with the probably inuoceat partner of his joy • ' .and sorrows, to utlitruia. • The Jury retitid-ter a aliort dais, lad wife they the d- Mr. from his fish's emp_loymeni. Mr. Serjeant hi stating the facts of the ease for the plaintiff, as afterlrerds proved in evi. &nee, said that be did not seek eiorbitaut damages; the principal object of his client was to suppress the combination of the riband Weavers in Coventry, by whom a society had been formed for the support of those who refused to work for prices less than those fixed for the various kinds of work, by a list agreed to between the masters and men in 1818. The de; fendants were described as the treasurer tad sear; tary of this society ; the former, Mr. Lilly, had at oni time been a master riband-manufacturer in Covers; try, but was now retired from business and lived spoil his fortune. The plaintiff was a manufacturer, prin: cipally of what are termed doubles and galloons: he had not, however, agreed to the list of prices...-. In consequence of this, his men were enticed, or in• duced by intimidation, to quit his employment, one after another, until at length he was unable to meet the demands of his customers and London agent, altd were therefore compelled to make their purchases elsewhere. Bp this means the plaintiff had sustained a very serious injury, and this injury was laid in the declaration as the ground of special damage. No evidence was offered by their Counsel. Mt. Dan. max on the part of the defendants. In ' ararging the Jury, Mr. Justice Basr thanked the plaintiff that he had had the nerve to recast the combination r,f which the defendant, Lilly, hail be come the tool ; adding, that he deserved the thanks i of his fellow-townsmen for bringing this action.
