104 KENT. The assizes for this county did not finish until Same. Al evening, about six o'clock. On Friday morning, 'there brie. upwards of (hi prisoners isistaining to be tried, tlie Lord Chief Baron stopped the mogtess of the civil bib loess, and assisted Mr. Baron ‘Vood the whole of that day in clearing the gaol, and with the additional assist ance of Mr. Nolan and Mr. Sergeant Teddy, who :respectively tried prisoners on Thursday, the pressure of bosiness was so far relieved as to enable the Lord Chief Baron to resume his duties on the cis if side on Saturday. A:I the CAWS were disnitsed of in consequence of the assistance of Mr. Baron Wool, who having finished the crown business, tried two nisi Arius records in the lower Sentence of death was passed upon no less than 41 c4/ilal cone iCtS, the imijorny of whom had been guilty of house-breaking in the day and night time. The only t.mta rk able case on the crown side was the following:— HIGHWAY ItOnUERY.II 7 III. Clayton was indicted for assaulting Thos. Brakefield on the King's highway, • its Me isarish of Gondhurst, nu the 26th February, 1819, putting him in fear, and taking Irom his person a silver watch and cash to the amount of 521. in bank notes and silver. The prosecutor, a travelling fishmonger by trade, stated, that about nine o'clock in the evening of the 26t li of February, 1819, he was returning homewards through (flastotantry wood, when he was knocked down by a b:ow from a bludgeon behind. On endeavouring to rise, the prisoner Joshed upon him with a pistol, which seas afterwards found to be loaded with powder and ball, 81111 demanded his money, threatening to blow his brains ti,it if he refused. A struggle then ensued between himself and the prisoner, which lusted full three quarters of an hour, in which he received and gave several blows whit the pistol, which lie twice wrested from the hands of his assailant, and at length threw it away into the wood, where it was afterwards Mund. Witness then polled out his watch and itfr:red it to the prisoner, who declined it, saying that he knew he had money, and mo ney he would have. Willlels then called out for aid, to pr. vent which the prisoner thrust his fingers into his mouth, which he bit very severely. He then threw his watch away. Some (Luther struggle took place, during which witness contrived to get a canvas purse out of his pocket, in which were 501. in notes, and 31. worth of silver, and threw that also from him towards the place where he had before thrown his watch. The prismier then released him, got up, seized the watch and purse, and mane off. 'flue witness followed, overtook, and seized him, and begged for a restitution of part of his motley; but the prisoner finally S ot away with the whole. 'Witness then went home bleeding very much from the head, procured assistance, and returned to the spot, where he found the pistol, bludgeon, and two sixpences lj Mg, together with his watch. He used every means 10 :apprehend the prisoner, but in vain, until October -last, when he was apprehended as Dartford. William Standen, the person to whom the prosecutor immediately after the robbery went for assistance, ac companied him back to the wood, anti corroborated all that pan of his account. Thomas Ilan, a publican, of Mepham, 30 miles front the prosecutor's residence, saw we prisoner in his house 30111 c dey early in March, 1819. There was blood on his bands and waistcoat, when he asked him if he had been fighting. He said no; he had been skylarking with some friends of his, who tied a rope across the road, over which he had fallen and hurt himself. The prtsoner had corded breeches on. He pulled out a great 111311 V IMAM and said, " 1 don't want for money now— here's between 301. and 401." Tne prisoner, in his defence, said, the whole prosecu tion was iu spite, because he had informed against several persons at Dartford for buying game, and that the inhabitants had frequently riled and abused him, declaring that he was a great rogue. The jury without hesitation found the prisoner Guilty CHATHAM PIRE.-•-•-COWEIr U. BAKER. This was an action of trespass, for pulling down and demolishing, without leave or licence, two leasehold houses of the plaintiff, situate in the parish of Chatham. This case excited considerable interest. Mt. Sergeant Onslow (with whom were Mr. Sergeant 'Liddy and Mr. Comyt) stated thy plaintiff's ease. In the month of March, last year, a dreadful fire having brolien out inChat 'ant, which destroyed a great number of houses, and even threatened the destruction of that and the adjoining towns; the defendant, a respectable budder, of Chatham, in order to prevent the progress of the flames, directed a body of sappe a and miners, be longing to the Royal Artillery corps, to pull down the two houses in question, which were built of lath and ylaistrr, and situate close 10 a dialillery, to which, if the flames had reached, destruction to the whole town and City of Rochester was fined liable. The plaintiff ' s house: , had hero insured in the E tele Fire Office s,r 4001. but the directors of that insunition being applied to tor iii &notification for the plainoff's loss, refu-ed to pay, Le cause it was tot a loss within the terms of the pu icy.

THE NATIONAL REGISTER ALL JUDGESALLOW THE DEST IS CHEAPEST. _ The above truth strongly applies to persons le t bouring under dangerous diseases. It is a fact (ba r thousands full victims to their own folly, and thei constitutions tire ruined by trusting to their own judgr'ent, or consulting illiterate Pretenders.— Health, and a good constitution once lost, cannot be easily regained. The judicious mode of restoring health, and effecting a permanent cure, is, like the dew of Heaven to a withering plant, a di 4 ine bene faction. This is truly applicable to the Medical Board, which has restored thousands to perfect ' health, after lingering for months, and even after Hospitals had tailed. It is also pleasing to hear that the liberal part of the Profession acknowledge this Medical Establishment the Fountain Head for superior Advice. Messrs COOPER, Mux nor, Sir F. DANIEL and Co of long experience in various Hospitals, and in this Metropolis, are consulted daily by all ranks of people. Letters from the Country, stating the par ticulars of their case, containing an enlosurce, are answered by return of Post, and Medicines sent to all parts of the Kingdom.

IMPRESSED with a just end humane sense of the calamitous results arising from the injudicious treatment of a certain malady, and often entailing on its unhappy victim a series of distressing and almost insupportable alietions, Dr. EADY respectfully calls the attention of those interested, to his peculiar and most effectual method of cure, unlike the advertising empiric of the day, or the equally criminal conduct of those ..wko hold the promise to the car, and break it to our hope." Dr. EADY will not presume to pledge infallibility in every description of cure, but us far as human aid, assisted by medical and surgical skill can be applied, lie promises a certain , speedy, and perma nent restoration; having made every species of Syphilitic affection and its various train of diseases the primary objects of his professional studies, and being flattered by the transcendent success which has accompanied his mode of treatment during the course of a long and laborious practice, he is enabled to oller, with the fullest confidence, pretensions at once the most hopeful and encouraging. Innumerable instances C4ll be adduced illustrative of the superiority of Dr. EAny's system, which has been found to prevail, even where eminent talent, retained by public institutigne, has been inefftxtual. In addition to those consolatory advances. Dr. EADY will be found equally fortunate in reviving the slumbering and debilitated energies of the human constitution, which embitter, and if not timely arrested, fie quently render nuga•ory the very principal of existence. From this desolating state of inanity by re-animating the frame and atibriling tone and elasticity to the relaxed organs. Dr. LADY is happy to convey the most cheating and positive assurances that the sufferers of both sexes ntay be rescued ; a steady perseverance in the means dictated being only required.—Dr. EADY is con sulted daily, at his house, Zh, Dean Street, Soho, by patients of both sexes.

The principle ot their construe. lion is entirely new, and possesses two peculiar advantages.— Stones are not subject to foul, and may be placed within the common cistern or reservoir. and a constant supply of pure water is obtained with the utmost facility, and may be conveyed to any part of the house. These improved stones will filter from to to 100 gallons of water per day, rendering the hardest water sufficiently soft for domestic purposes, and t he foulest, brilliantly transparent, thereby inswing the most perfect salubrity.

Our marker was pretty largely supplied with Wheat this morning, having had a considerable quantity remaining over from Monday's market, but there dots not appear much disposition to purchase, except the finest samples, which alone obtained Mon day's prices. Barley was also dull in sale, and Is. per quarter cheaper. The Oat trade was dull, and there being a large supply at market, that article was on the decline. Peas ate Is. per quarter cheaper, and dull in side at that reduction. In Beans, &c. there was no alteration. CU RR F',NT PRICI ►'er W inches :ES Or CIL si!er Measure MO! DA Y. i.
