LENT ASSIZES. TAUNTON, APRIL 4. Elizabeth Bryant, aged 50, her daughter. of„ the same name, aged 20, and Jane Bryant, aged fifteen, were tried for assaulting au old.womao t a_ reputed witch !--The prosecutrir, Ann Burgess, was a fine hale woman, 60 years of age. It appeared on the trial, that the elder Of the three prisoners had a daughter affected with fits, and she had applied to a mail named Baker, a reputed conjuror, to ascertain the cause of her disease. Baker informed her that, her daughter was bewitcfied by some person in the neighbourhood, and that to get rid of the charm it was necessary to make a certain preparation, of which he gave her the recipe ; this preparation was to be bornt, with cer tain ceremonies and prayers. Bat the advice went beyond this, and the wretched prisoners were actually possessed with the horrible notion, that to dissipate the charm effectually, it was necessary to draw blood from the witch ! Some gtudge made the prisoners fix on the prosecutrir, and they accordingly attacked her, tore her arms with an iron nail, and would have killed her, had they had a knife. The assault was not denied, but the Counsel for the prisoners pleaded in extenuation the delusion under which the prisoners laboured. Each of them was sentenced to four months imprisonment. A more striking instance of ignorance and credulity than the trial of these women brought to light, has rarely fallen under our notice. 'file following is a copy of the recipe given by Baker : " The Oar of Miatur is to be Mist with half pint of Gen" (v. e. gin). " and then a table spoon to be taken Morning{ and at Eleven 0 dock four and Eight. and four of the Pills to be taken 'every Morning fasting and the Paper of powder to be arvidvd In ten parts and one part to be taken every Night going to bed in a little honey." " The paper of Arbs (i. e. herbs) is to be burnt, a small bit at time,,on a few coals, with a little bay and rosemary, and while it is burning read the two first verses of -the 68th Salm, and sae/ the Losta's prayer after. (Signed) " B. BAKER." The time at which all this was to be was midnight, and With other attendant ceremonies and circum btances, for which he gave instructions. LEICESTER, APRIL $. John Bishop Allot, a Gentleman of property in this county, was indicted for the wilful murder of William Lane, on the Stith of November last. The deceased was a drummer of the 39th Regi incur, and on a recruiting party at Twyford Statutes, some distance from Leicester, on the 25th of Novem ber last. At night, on bis return to Leicester, he passed through the town of Thurtnerston, and, while standing with ionic boys outside the house of the pri soner, they saw the prisoner open the window in con sequence, it was supposed, of some irritation he bad received from same one in the street before, and, with a gun in his hand, desired the party to go away oche would shoot them. They, in effect, did aot go away. The prisoner, it would be proved, shot at the drummer With a double-barrel gun. The drummer dropped. Be was raised on the knee of one of the boys present. and, whilst in that position, the prisoner discharged the second barrel at him, which also took effect. The drummer lingired for a short time, and died. For the defence, a plea of temporary derangement was put in, owing to recent severe domestic adlictions, and the Jury brought in their verdict to that effect. The prisoner was ordered to remain in custody till the Royal pleasure should be known. SHERIFFS COURT, LAUNCESTON HALL V. lIARVEY. Mr. Warm conducted the case for the prosecutor, who was declared to be Sir Rose Price. This was ati action brought ander an old statute (the sth of Wil liam II!.) against the . defendant, to recover damages for a trespass. He had suffered judgment to go by' default, and, as it appeared, to avoid the expense of witnesses being brought from a distant part of the County to prave the case against him; be admitted that on the day laid in.the record, be •had gone out of the road into a piece ound belonging to Sir Rose Price, and shot a w oodcock. This was the sub stance of the case for the plaintiff; on which the Learned Counsel commented at considerable length s and called for such damages as would prevent a re petition bf the offence. Mr; C. P.'Wsit.titts, for the defendant, said that the present was an action for which every honest and liberal-minded man who beard him must feel the greatest contempt and indignation. The action was brought under a statute, which was a disgrace to the statute-book, and for the honour of our gentry, he must state it was the first Instance in which (as he vas aware) it had ever been made use of, and he hoped it would be the last. It was a statute in which it was enacted, that if " any of the inferior class of tradesmen, or other idle and dissolute persons, should presume to slisiot on any park, manor, ?cc. they should be deemed and taken as wilful trespassers, thougli-ao previous notice should have been given to them not to trespass." Under this statute it had been-held that a person exercising the very respectable trade of an apothecary came within the description of " one of the inferior class of tradesmen," an " idle and dissolute person ;" and in the present case, here was Sir Rose Price, whose family sprang up as but yesterday, and who was himself what. he was from trade, presuming, under this statute, to stigmatize an honest and indus trious tradesman as one of " the inferior class," an 4. idle. and dissolute person." Would the Jury sanc tidn sitch arrogance in the application of such a sta tute ? The Learned Counsel said he would be one of the first to protect those who, either in consequence of their family's or their own industry, talent, or ser vices, became possessed of landed property, in the full enjoyment of that property,;„ but let it be pro. tected in a fiir and honour le manner, by giving notice to those who infringes' upon knot to repeat the offince, and not by bnnging oppressive actions, under such a statute, against any tradesman who ven tured, for his health or recreation, to amuse himself by sporting, and in the course of an afternoon's amusement happened to tread inadvertently upon a blade of grass belonging to the neighbouring Lard. Let not a person so offending be pressed to the earth , -by•clantsiges in an action in which, whatever was the issue, the costimust be ruinous to him. -:fhe Learned Counsel wished that Sir Rose had been present to heal hit (Mr.Willianses) opinion of his conduct in t the face of the county, but after this action, " a Ruse by any other name would smell as sweet." The Jury, if they felt as he conceived they must feel, would show their sense of dm ram* action by giving farthing damages. • 71 The ilinen &inure said, th* alter the two Wet ..nset had addressediPtiory "eon the facts , se, it would hi presumptuous is hies to make mutant, and he would, therefore, offer no observa tions on a case of which they'were the best jud, the merits. The Jury deliberated for a Few minutes, when Foreman said, a We find fer , the plaintiff, claw One Farthing ; and did we 'now of any smaller rent coin of the realm, we should give it."

On the part of the plaintiff, who was a blacksmi residing at Newry, it was sought to be shew his daughter was allured to, and forcibly detained by the defendant in his barrack.room, where she been seduced by him. The daughter of the plaintiff gave evidence the manner in whist she was trepanned; and in ing and delicate language represented her foi and melancholy situation, the irreparable injury . sustained, and the loss and damage which thereb accrued to her parents, by the loss of her servic her character, and her honour. On the defence, Mr. Nunn, a Lieutenant i! Regiment, proved that the captured maid itdml him into her prison chamber, the key of which in her own safe keeping, and that she felt no cular anxiety to fly from her cage or her captor; evidence proved no bashful reluctance on her I A The Jury were ungallant enough to give credi the testimony adduced for the deience, and wit much consideration, returned a Verdict for the fendant, with costs.
