• Luckless is he, whom hard fates urge on To practice as a Country Surgeon; To drag a heavy galling chain, The slave of all for paltry gain ; To tide, regardless of all weather, Ifhro' frost, and snow, and hail together; To smile and.bow when sick and tired, Considered as a servant hired. At evermuarter of the compass, A surly patient makes a rumpus, Because he is not seen the first, (For each man thinks his case the worst.) And oft at two points diametric, Called to a business obstetric. There lies a man with broken limb, A Lady here with nervous whim, Who, at the acme of her fever, Calls him a savage—if he leave her. For days and nights in some lone cottage, Condemned to live on crusts and pottage, Or pork in pendotudle, the fare Some Cbruisli Surgeons eat, but stare. To kick his heels, and spin his brains, Waiting, forsooth, for labour's pains; And that job over, hippy he, If he squeeze out a guinea fee. Then worn like culprit on the wheel, Ile sits him down to hasty meal; Ile sits! when lo! a patient comes With rotted tooth and putrid gums; The Doctor takes Isis dentist tools, Fixes the SCITW, and tugs and pulls; His dinner cold, his hands this mess in, AU for a shilling, or a blessing ! Now comes the night—with toil opprest, lie seeks hi, bed in hope of rest; Vain hope ; his slumbers are no more, Loud sounds the knocker at the door; A farmer's wife, at ten miles' distance, Groaning, calls out for his assistance : Fretting and fuming in the dark, lie in the tinder strikes a spark, And as he, yawning, heaves his breeches, Envies his neighbour, blest with riches! SUMMER ASSIZES. i I • THEXOUNTRY SURGEON. (A TRU/ SILL) Ain an Elegant Hudibrostic attempt to describe his Profasiossol Enjoyments CHELMSFORD, JULY 26. THE KiNG V. ARCHER AND DROWN. This was an indictment against the defendants for a conspiracy to obtain 152 sheep, by offering two bills of exchange, one of which was drawn upon and ac cepted by Brown, by the title of Lord Viscount Mon tague, and addressed to him at Storrington Hall, Sussex, and payable at the house of Mr. Champ, in Lon. don, and which, when presented, the answer was, that no such person was known there: and the other, a bill equally worthless, and accepted by another per son, payable at a banker's in the City. Mr. KNOX stated the case for the prosecution, vuhich, according to the evidence, was in substance this :—An ignorant and Elite:ate \Velchman had been em; lo)cd by his master, a Mr. Edwards, of Delbighshire, to sell the sheep in question, and for that put pie he went to Harlow-bush fair on the 9th Sopternber, IS2O. Two of the alleged conspira tor-, At cht; and Church (the latter of whom was con victed at the last Assizes for this county, and sen tenced to s x montl)s'imprisonment), went down in a to the fair, and pretending to be great cattle , deaier,, I)o:chased the whole of the flock, for which they g.ive the v.. 0 bi'.ls of exchange in question, and received limn the unsuspecting ‘Velehman £lO as the difference between the amount of the bills and the stipulated price Of tl.e sheep. 'They took them to London, and sold part of them to a Gentleman near Kentish Town. Whilst the sheep were in the posses s an of the latter, the pretended Peer (Mr. Brown) came, and sail that the sheep were his, and not Church's, and that Church was merely his drover.— It appeared that the soi-disant Lord had a dilapi date„ house in Sussex, called Storrington Hall, but did not reside circle. This was the substance of the . case. The formality of proof requited to support the indictment having been gone through, Mr. AnoLPitus addressed the Jury on:.,:half of the defendants, and contended that there was not suf fitient prof to support the indictment against the Noble Lord, even if all that had been proved against were title. All that the evidence amounted to was, that he had given a bill of exchange to the other defendants, of which a bad use had been made. His claiming the sheep eight or nine days afterwards did not alwaint to proof that he had conspired to obtain the sheep by means of the bills. It had been proved that the Noble Lord had a house in Sussex, called' Storrington Hall ; and, although he did not reside there, still it could not be doubted that the bill was genuine, though it did not produce any effects. The Jury found both defendants Guilty. The de fendant Brown was sentenced to six months' impri sonment, and to pay a fine of ten pounds ; and the other defendant to a like term of imprisonment, and to pay a fine of five pounds. Mr. Brown was a man of respectable appearance, rather above the middle age. It is said he is pro -s.,ectiting his claim to the title ' of Viscount Montague, and the estates thereto belonging. YORK, JULY 25. LIBEL.-TILE FANG V. SIMON AND OTHERS. This was an indictment preferred against Mr. John Vrook, Solicitor, of the city of York, and seven other defendants, as proprietors and acting managers of a N 1 eekl y Newspaper, called the Yorkshire Gazette, pub , lished in that city, for a libel upon Mr. W. Hargrove, the Editor of the York Herold. The Under Sheriff being one of the defendants, the panel for the Jury vas returned by the High Sheriff in person. Ten • special jurors were in attendance, and the two Gen tlemen to complete the Jury were returned from the Grand Jury. The libel which formed the subject of this prosecution was published so long ago as the 19th of October, 1819 ; and the indictment was preferred at the July Sessions, for ihe city of Yor k, 1821. This prosecution would probably never have been insti tuted, had not an indictment been preferred against Mr. Hargrove, for a libel upon some of the present defendants, of which he was convicted and fined £5. Mr. BROUGII4ISI addressed the Jury in support of the prosecution in a very able speech, the object of which was to establish the principle, that the Editor of a Newspaper was entitled to the same protection for his character, and the same redress when it was traduced, as any other individual; and the Learned Counsel strongly insisted that the refusal of this pro. tection would have the e ff ect of degrading the Press, __ _ ely throwing it entirely into the hands principled men. The libel in question • .AO PALACE COURT, JULY 26. FEAN V. was contained in a letter addresieCtO the Editor ,of . the Yorkshire Gqietle, and consisted of strictures on an article which had appeared the preceding week in the York Herald, upon the 'proceedings at Manches ter, in which the Editor of.the. Herald contended; that the Public had a right to form and express their opinion upon that'procedure of the 16th of August, without waiting until it had been - investigated in a Court of Justice. The letter charged as libelous contained a quotation of considerable length from the paragraph which formed the subject of its ani madversions. • The following is the passage which formed the subject of the prosecution : " Combating dm opinion that the Magistrates at Manchester should not be condemned until their case has been regularly heard, the man of Yoik, in his last week's vehicle of falsehood and faction, thus scoffs at that hitherto boasted bulwark of our liberty, the trial by Jury." —The whole or this letter, including the quotation from the York Herald, was read by the Clerk of the Court. The necessary proofs having been given that the defendants were proprietors of the Yorkshire Ga zette, evidence was given to prove the iniendoes, as they are called, that the " man of York," and (4 the insolent demagogue," meant Mr. William Hargrove, the Editor of the York Herald. Mr. SCARLETT addressed the Jury on behalf of the defendants. The serious part of his argument was this—that the strictures which had been made upon Mr. Hargrove, in his editorial capacity, were not calculated to injure his character ; that it was a spe cies of phra. eology ad )pted by newspaper writers; and that tl e express ons " treasonable and " fac tious," when used by them, meant no more, if ap plied by a M nisteriai writer to one of opposite sen timents, thin that he was an opposition man. And if newspaper writer,. instead of writing against each other, as was gen:rally the present commendable practice, ii ere to indict each other for libels, the whole time of Co ins of Justice would be occupied with their quarrels. The following are the names of the defendants : Messrs. J. hn Brook, Jonathan Grey, Daniel Tyke, J. D. Tweedy, William Askwith, Hewley Graham, James Russell, and John Wolstenholme. The CHTEirJusTlce, in charging the Jury, said it was undoubtedly true that the Editor of a news paper had the same tight to have his character pro tected by the law as any other individual ; but he observed, that when a person published his sentiments on any subject, he laid himself open to reasonable and moderate criticism ; and it would be for the Jury to determine whether in the present case the publica tion complained of went beyond ir. Ka writer at tacks another by slander and calumny, he is amenable to the law, which will not tolerate it. If the Jury should be of opinion that the publication in question was confined within the bounds of reasonable and fair animadversion, they would return a verdict for the de fendants: if they wel e of opinion that it was slander ous and calumnious, they ought to return a verdict of guilty tinder this indictment. The evidence did not apply to either Mr. Tweedy, Mr. Askwith, or Mr. Graham, who must at all events be acquitted. The Jury retired for about half an hour, and on their return into Court s found all the defendants Not Gidaty, CROWN Si DI.—JULY e". Joshua Hodgson, of Scholes, in the parish of Bir- . stall, was charged by an indictment with wilful and corrupt perjury, in a deposition made before Thomas Ilorion, Esq. one of the Justices of the Peace of the' West Riding, in which he charged Robert Sellers with tl:e comm;ss -, m of an unnatural clime with Jo shua Hodgson, the uncle of the prisoner; and for' whi h offence Robert Sellers was tried at the last As size-, when the perjury of the prisoner was so appa ent that he was committed to the Castle by the Court.' The evidence in this case is so involved in the horrid crime which was charge.' against Sellers, that it is impossible to enter into any details of it without an offence against public decorum. The prisoner was the nephew and heir at law of Joshua Hodgson of Scholes, who died. in the latter end of December, ' leaving by will the greater part of his property to Robert Sellers, and leaving no part of it to the priso; ner, which was the probable motive for this; act of diabolical revenge. The crime was stated to have' been committed on the Bth of December, and to have been seen by himself and his son ; and the first infor mation given of it was on the 15th January, after the death and funeral of his uncle, and Wilco the contents of the will war known to the prisoner. The fahehood of the prisoner's deposition was borne out by a great variety of evidence, both positive and circumstantial; one striking feature of which was, that the prisoner, on the 16th of January, made a deposition, contra dicting, in the most important and essential particu lots, the statement he had made upon oath on the preceding day. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Pottocx, who strongly insisted upon the circumstance, that in the year 1819, gobert Sellers was charged before Mr. Stocks with a similar offence, in connexion with the same person, which was somehow compromised; and the Learned Counsel insisted that a person who, had sat down under the imputation was utterly unworthy of credit, and might be supposed capable of commit ting the clime which had been imputed to him. The evidence of the surgeon, who evinced great ignorance upon the subject, was commented upon with severity. The Learned Judge, in charging the Jury, made every observation in favour of the prisoner which could possibly arise out of the case. The Jury retired to consider of their verdict, and after remaining out of Court for a quarter of an hour, they returned with a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Tummy* obtained a rale, last Friday week, calling on the plaintiff to Whew cause why a writ of inquiry, issued against the defendant, should not be set aside, for irregularity. Mr. Mammes now, chewed cause against the rule, and con tended that as the defendant had not received the copy of the writ, nor notice of declaration, the service of the notice of in quiry was not ghod. Mr. Hindle being engaged In a Wale of books in Bond-street, was there inquired for; a person came down, and said his name was. Hindle ; accordingly the copy of the writ was served on him, and afterwards a notice of declaration was serv e d on hi m, at h i s house, In Chancery-lane, he at the same time saying to the per son who brought it, " I suppose you have got a notice of de claration for me." Mr. Tnetinosa said that Hindle swears most positively he re ceived no notice of declaration, nor was he served with a copy of the writ, which alone was sufficient to ground a motion. He should observe that there was positive direct swearing on the part of Hindle, that he did not receive the notice, and on the other side, that he was served. There is an affidavit (continued the ',earned Counsel) imputing collusion on the part of Hindle and a person of the name of Collinson. Is it because the first person they meet and serve a copy of a writ on, that Mr. Hin dle is by that to defend the action Supposing Mulls had , -- • received a note front eollbason, iaybigAelad been aerted wit" a copy of a writ, that he is to defend it? No! not until be sees whether the plaintiff lambast° procesokor sot, Instead of going to his house in Chancery-lane, they go to Bond-street, where be is engaged in a sale of books, and there serve a person who an swers the name of George Hindle. On the affidavits it appears that the first notice he had of this action was the notice of in quiry. At all events, the defendant was entitled to have the in quiry set aside. a • • Mr. Justice Moues said that certainly, under all theistreutn 'tamest the notice of inquiry ought to be set aside: No blame whatever, he said, could be attached to lir. Abrahams, the at torney; he had done all he Could; but as the defendant had sworn to merits, the rule must be made tboolute, particularly as the money had been paid into Court) Samuel Briant, one of the officers of the Court, was called up for arresting a - person in open Mr. Justice Monica said he certainly had done wrong, but no doubt be had done it ignorantly. The Court, he said, was not to be a scene of broils. The law in old Courts of Justice, in Westminster Hall, was, that if there were any broils in Court the man would lose his bead. He should, however, only put a tine of a sovereign upon him, to be distributed among the poor prisoners in that prison. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. THZ LAWS EXPENSE. • Rickard Horton came up to be heard on his Petition to be dis charged, Cid was opposed by a creditor napel Preston, en the ground of having been put to vexatious expense. Preston stated, that he held an acceptance of the insolvent's for £lO, which he bad taken for a debt long due, and not being able to obtain payment, be at length brought an action for its re covery in the Marshalsea Court, as the least expensive.. The in solvent removed the action to the King's Bench, where be suf fered judgment by default; and witness's taxed coats amounted to £3l. He sold the insolvent's goods under execution for his debt and costs, but the sale produced no more than paid the landlord, and witness was left without a shilling. After he had brought his action, payment was often promised him, but no money was ever produced. When his costs were but four gui neas be offered to take two in full, and a time was appointrdfor paying him, but the money not being sent, he went to Serjeant's Inn, where he expected to see the insolvent, and met him in company with another person, when they both laughed at him, and said, " you're too late now." He afterwards found that they had just then lodged the Habeas for the removal of the ac tion to the King's Bench. The insolvent said in his defence, that on the day he removed the action he had money to pay the bill, and half the costs,whicii Mr. Preston had agreed to take, and he intended td do so, but was advised by a professional man to remove the action into the King's Bench and defend it. He paid three guineas for the I la beas, and spent the rest of the money before the trial, and was unable to make-any defence. The COURT said, the professional man who had advised-the insolvent to spend the money with which he should have paid a just debt, in putting his creditor to vexatious expense, had cer tainly given him very had advice, but that could be no justifica tion of the insolvent's conduct. The judgment of the Court was, that he should not he discharged until he had been six months in prison from the date of filing his petition. MARLIOROUCH-STRIET.--TnE LASS SHOCKV.IO AFFAIR..--Sa turday application was made to the sitting Magistrate at this office, by the desire of Colonel Downes, in whose regiment the soldier served who was detected in company with the Bishop of Clogher under such dreadful circumstances on the night of Friday week, to know if he lead or had not been admitted to bail ? This inquiry was induced in consequence of a rumour having been circulated than he had been bailed. and was then at large. The Magistrate said that the man was rill in custody ; but that as the charge against him amounted only to a misdemeanour, he was entitltd to his discharge on producing proper recognizance% The Serjcant Major, by whom the application was made, said, that his inquiry was solely induced by the regulations of the re giment. If the men had been set at liberty, he ought to have returned to his quarters; and in default of so doing, would of course be considered as a deserter. Bow-STREET.—Saturday, a ludicrous investigation took place before T. HALL% Esq. the Sitting Magistrate, arising out of the circumstance of a depraved young woman, who is now in the lowest and most abandoned course of life, but who a short time since rode in her carriage, being brought to the Office; chargeil with making a disturbance, and raising a hue and cry of a mob against a respectable Serjeant belonging to the Coldstream Regiment of Guards, by calling after him, and saying he wss the soldier who had lately disgraced himself with the Bishop of Clogher ; and however groundless and truly ridiculous her attack, by a slanderous tongue, for she made it a complete burlesque,* by asserting, that a chimney-sweeper present, who resembled " Sir Jeffery Dunstan" in his person and defor mity, as well as his eccentric manners, was the Bishop, and thus raised a hue and cry of the Bishop and the Soldier, and. however ridiculous, the mob were inclined to attack them both. Serjeant William Butterfield stated, that on his return home from duty on that morning to his residence in Church•lane, he found a mob, amounting for about one hundred persons, assembled round his house, occasioned, as he understood, by the prisoner disputing with the chimney-sweeper. lie found much difficulty in getting to his house; and, on his speaking to the prisoner to make way to enable him to pass, she answered him with much ridiculous language, pushed the chimney sweeper against him, and told the mob he was the soldier above described, at which he felt extremely indignant. He bad served the King for about thirty years. and never had his character impeached, and he was afraid the insinuation would attach to him all his lile. The : Alagistrate, in reply, said he considered a soldier a very honourable character, and had no doubt he was such, and he should experience every protection and support from him against so foul and groundless an aspersion. The chimney-sweeper also complained of the 'defamatory words spoken against him, and said that although he was not a Bishop, yet he considered the insinuation thrown out against him as a stain upon his cloth ! The prisoner conducted herself in a very violent and inde corous mannner, so much so, that she wu obliged to be removed from the Office and locked up in the strong room. She was committed for want of bail. Wi!lians .Hatton was brought up by Bond, who apprehended him on Saturday morning, charged with a most 'extensive rob bery. It appeared from the evidence adduced, that Mr. Han stead, who keeps the Porto Bello public-house in St. Martin's lane, had, on the 10th instant, his house robbed of £546 12s. dd. in which sum was a forty pound note, which he succeeded in tracing before finding its way to the Bank, where it was changed. It had passed through the hands of several individuals, all of whom accounted for the possession of it until It came to Hatton. Mr. Smith, of the Marquis of Granby, in West-street, Seven Dials, knew the prisoner, and changed Vie note.—Hatton was remanded on the capital charge. . Admiral Marry and his Lady (Lady ANDOVER) were lately upset in their carriage, and severely in jured. The Admiral had one of his ribs broken, and her Ladyship one of her arms. We are, however, ex tremely happy to hear that both are recovering. Monday se'nnight, as %Madam, the second son of Mr. THOMAS DEANE, of Exeter, was bathing in the liver Taw, near I3arnstaple, he was unfortunately ' drowned: he arrived from Exeter, to spend a few days with the young Gentleman who went in the water with him, and bad not been in Barnstaple above one hour before the accident occurred. 1 The only son of Mr. WILLIAM STOCKDA Le, of Pic cadilly, was drowned on Saturday se'nnight, at Tun bridgeWells. He had been playing in the garden'of the Sussex Hotel there ' and being suddenly missed, wa s found in a small shallow tank. Two daughters of Mr. Smith, the proprietor of the Hotel, were in the garden at the time. Though he was supposed to have been but a few minutes in the water, and every medical aid was instantly given, it was all ineffectual. Wednesday se melt, a quarrel took place between two females, which terminated fatally to one of them, and offers a terrible example of the folly and wicked ness of giving way to the force of anger. The parties, whose names were Cox an Fox, were neighbours, re siding in New Bromptor., at the bottom of Chatham Lines. They had some altercation, when the former kicked the latter in the stomach with such violence that she died shortly afterwards, S • .4?
