The person accused of having assaulted the young lady has hero taken. The gentleman who stands char r ed is Mr. Bar ret, a wineand brandy merchant, in great trade in the city ; and he underwent an examination yesterday, at Marlborough-street Police-office. Mr. Alley and Mr. Willett, Solicitors, of Salisbury-square, attended for the defendant. The testimony of Miss Latham, the prosecutrix, and the daughter of the eminent Dr. Latham was read over, anj which was as follows:--She was walking along South -street, Worth ing, at seven o'clock on the 10th of June, after having left her brother and maid-servant at a bathing machine, when she was overtaken by the defendant, who took her by the arm, and pressed his converatima to lier. The young lady declined his company, but he stilt solicited her to grant him five minutes con versation. The defendant followed her to the door of her lodgings, Where he left her. The next morning, being the 11th, Miss Latham *w the defendant pa3c the house, but she supposed he did not see her. On the morning of the l2tb , the young lady had returned from bathing, and whilst sitting on her sofa and pe , A ing a book, she heard the lock of the door opened, and is-. pecting it to be tat son of Mr. Kiug, of Bedford-row, she went down stairs, and to her surprise beheld the defendant, who fol lowed her hastily into her drawing-room. lie immediately be gan to take liberties, and Miss Latham fainted. She did not know what happened until some time after, when -he nartls , recovered, and found herself oil her sofa, with a hand::erchief SO . over her mouth. The defendant had taken or her white - SAOI. • and tied her hands at the wrist. Ile observed that she shobtd not he hurt, and advised her not to be alarmed. After hav ing violated her person. the defendant used pressing solicitations to prevail .on the young lady to elope, and he added that a post chaise should be waiting for her at the door of Mr. Ogle. He assured her that he would treat her affectionately ; she shc•ald go to his country house, anti have servants at her cdimmand. 'l' he Defendant loosened the handkerchief from the 'youug Lady's mouth, in order, as he slid, to receive a gratifying answer to the proposed elopment buton her indignantly expressing her abhorrence of his conduct, he again fastened tae handkereitice over her mouth, and left the room, having: placed the furniture, &c. in order. Miss Latham loosened the handkerchief, by plac ing her hand against the table, and she contrived to ring the belt for her servant Lawrence, wisp untied the white sash, and loosen ed her hoods. The Vrosccutrix swore positively to the Defeed ant, as being the man who tad violated her person, and whore she had had opportunities of knowing, from repeatedly seeing Mr. Alley, in defence of his client, be;:ged to offer such evi` deuce to the Magistrate by alibi, as should convince him of the total innocence of Mr. Barret, and which would be provul by a host of unimpeachahle witnesses.. • Eight respectable witnesses proved that t h ey transacted bu siness ►►ith Mr. Barrett in town on the 104, llth, 12th, and !Sat of June. Miss Latham did not attend at this examination, but Mr. Gurney watched the evidence on her behalf. The Ninaistrate expret , sed his conviction of the innocence of Mr. Barrett, but he felt it his duty to order another examination, to give an op. • portunity for other witnesses to he brought forward on so serious a charge. r • • s IA The extraordinary success attending the State Lottery Offices Of Hornsby acid Co. in 1507 and ISOS. augurs they vi ill he - equally successful in ISO 9 ; they therefore ht pe to receive their usual distinction of favour *on the present occasiott, Hornsby • and Co. auxiously wish that the present Lc,ttery will 'ecure their frietols a great proportion of the 200.000 1.
