Thurtell wrote a fatter of iotk lengtii, which, being sealed in the presence of esi Governor, we, forwarded by the post to Mr. Venial. That gentletaan, however, arrived is the evening, and bad an interview with hit client. Probert and Hunt are much dejected ; Thurtell still maintains his usual air of issliffereace--he eats, drinks.and sleeps, appar . ently usaffest est by the least solicitude. Two men remain constantly with Sim. The hope which has been lately communicated to bim; that the trial will he postponed, gives something of anisettes to his mind. He discourses more freely on those sante, to which hie attention was before turned with mach eillecity. It had been represented that the Rev. lie. Cullom, the ingenious author of Lames, was amongst the few whose recent disappearance could not be accounted - foe; and it was added. that that individual was. seen last at Bp ea Eines with Weave and the Thurtells. It may he a satisfaction to those who take an interest in the fate of Mr. Celtoo, to bear that Tburtell disavows any recent intimacy with him. He says he knew him well, bet that be neither son; hies at Epsom Races, as was stated, nor does he believe that he Was present there. in company with Wear..

The spirit of protection must be carried or there is • no consistency in the law. The pecifesiional agents of the prisoners are proceeding in the way that would lead to the belief that they wish to tar grounds for an application, to postpone the trial. In the mean time, Hertford is the centre of interest. Beds foi ioniedibly high—and persons from remote parts of the kiligdoni have provided apptilients for the assizes.

COURT. OF JUNG'S BRNCH.—(Wans MAT.) TOO LINO V. 'rho COIN/ JUSTINS observed, that Inquiry having bun made into a former conviction of the defendant, which was mentiooed by his Learned Brother, Mr. Justice Bayley, it was found that be had been convicted, in July- 1817, of keeping a common Gambling House to No. 9, Bury Street, St. James's, that the posies was not in the Crown Office, and that be bad never been brought up for judg ment. Mr. ADDLTNI/111 apprehend yoer Lordships will not think it necessary to refer to that conviction, unless you be called on to pass judgment twit. Mr. Justice BavLsT-1 thought it my duty to state pub. licly that I behead he had bees so convicted, and I tied now that it was the care. Crum JUST! ca—Mith respect to the motion for the arrest of judgment, if yen, Mr. Solicitor General, think that you can sustain the indictment, we shall grant a rule to show ClOllO. The Soucyrou Garrguat.-.My bard. I think there is sufficient ground to support the indictment. The rule was than directed, and the defeedaat ordered to enter into his owe recognisance in two thousand' pound.. to appear when ailed on to receive the judgment of the Court. WILSON V. WILSON. This was a role to show cause why the verdict • obtain- ed by the plaintiff should not be set aside and a new trial bad. It appeared that the plaintiff, a yews/ lady veleta* Sir Henry - Wilso., the defendant, was residing in the fond l y o f the Coantess of Sander/chef, as governess. and the defeod , ant. not choosing that she should be in such a situation, offered her as asylum in his family, and proposed to her to become a member of it. She left the service of the Countess of Saodwyche, and resided some time in the family of Sir Henry Wilson, when some unfortunate circumstances occurring, it became necessary that she should remove frost the boost. After she removed, Sir Henry Wilson wrote several letters to her. in ono of which be offered to give her an annuity of 2001. a year, provided her conduct would merit ft. The annuity was not paid. and the plaintiff brought an action to recover from the defendant, on the ground that be had promised the annuity upon the condi tion of the plaintiff having left the service of the Countess "of Sandevcbe. A special verdict was taken for the plain. tiff for 3001. It was now contended by Mr. Littledale that the letters produced on the trial, whiob were written in 1814, 1518, and 1816. contained no promise sufficient to found a legal demand upon; that the plaintiff received so premise of any kind till af ee she had left Lady Sandwycbs's Tangly. and that any promise which appeared in the sub. sequent letters, of as annuity of 2001., was sell and void by the statute of (ramie, as no consideration was gives. Mr. Guatarr, in support of the verdict, contended that the lady had left her situation at Lady Saudwiche's, in consequence of a promise having been held out to her of compensation, and that though the amount of the compels• ration was aot then settled, it was aseertaiusd at a subsequent period. The Court was of opinion that the evident. produced at the trial was not sufficient to sustain the verdict. It wits certainly a very bud case, and sash a i.e as-called on Sir Henry Wilson to exercise his generosity towards the plaintiff. It might be true that she bad IA Lady Sao& wyche'a family in consequence of expectations that were held out to her by the defendant, but that did not appear in the trial. It was also true that is one of the defendant's letters he described his intention of granting as annuity to the plaintiff, but there being no consideration, that description of his intention was sot • legal objection. He was not legally bound to pay her 200/. a year, but enough appestat to show that the plaintiff had a strong and hon ourable claim on his generosity. TUB ZING V. KDWAID The defendant, a Magistrate for the county of Hereford, was found guilty of abusing his posers as a Magistrate, by ordering into custody Probers and other persons in the service of Thomas Austin, a miller and corofactor, whose premises were near the dwelling house of the defendant. Austin had occasion to cleanse the watercourse of his mill, and remove some part of the/moon work, an operation which the defendant thought cadets. gored the foendation of his dwelling-boose. He opposed the men in their work, and some violent hinging, ensuing he ordered them into custody. Mr. lintels was gaged in mitigation, and contended that the defendant bad acted without any corrupt motives, from mere warmth of temper, and a mistake as to the words of an Act of Parliament. The Coyne thought that a person who was incapable of controlling the warmth of his temper, was unfit to exercise the duties of the Magistracy, and suggested that the defendant shoull go before the Master, and arrange about making some compensation to the parties. Mr. Jeans said the defendant would prefer receiving tire judgment of the Court, and he was ordered to appear again to-monnw. TUB KING V. *DGBRLIT, AND lIUVAWOOD, JONIS AND CO. Mr. Catrre stated that he had now his affidavit amended. and that it was sworn that Edgeriry was the proprietor of the printing office in which the pamphlet of which he complained was printed. The pamphlet not only stated that Mr. Wears was murdered by Thortell, but that he also intended to murder Mr. Wood and Mr. Beaumont. Cant JIISTICI—Take a rule to show cause. PREROGATIVE COUR.T. wasiew,-- --(YasvannaT4 CURLING T. THORNTON. Dr. DODION said that in Ibis case the Learned Counsel on the opposite side bad contended that the facts did not bear sufficiently to establish the rule obtained. The forts are these s.—Col. Thornton quitted England in 1815 . and went to reed& in France. where he took up his domicile, and resided chiefly in Paris until his death in 1 8 23, and • the will made by him was to all intents and purposes nail' and cold ; he remained in France from the year 1815 till the time of his death, except in 181 d, when be came to this country for the purpose of business only, and returned in a very short time ; he had applied to the King of France, and was by him authorised to be domiciled in that country according to its cnetoms; he remained in that country without the intention of returning to England, and he died a domicile in France ; and by the civil law, the law of domicile is quite applicable to CoL Thornton's case. The Learned Counsel cited the Ist Book of Vette!, chap. 13. 1 which states, that a man does not sufficiently establish his domicile in any foreign country, unless he makes kaolin by express declaration, or otherwise, his intention. to do se. Now Colonel Thornton had made known his express declaration of such intention, hew's* he had applied to the King of France, who granted him bis domicile. Orotius, however, hail stated that a man hqd only to leave one country, and take up his ab.tde In another, for the purpose of remaining there to establish hie. domicile in that country. Colonel Thornton's sibode in France had sufficiently satisfied what was laid 'down in that law ; he went to France, purchased an estate, and agreed for the sale of it, but he never intended to leave that kingdom. The civil rode of France said if a stranger shall obtain the authorization of the King of France„he shall enjoy all the,privtleges of the kingdom. This pas ) in exact conformity to the laws of England ; in 3 1 Vilify Lord Loughborough laid down that the question of 9.- micile was, prima facie, much more a question of t I thin of law. In the case of Somerville v. Som-rville. b racy, jets. page 730., the Master of the!, 'Rolls : Sir Will (leant, said that a man could only have one dorsi:rile r the purposes of regulating his succession, for it' iiotri • abscird to suppose it to be otherwise. la llosameet d Poller'a Eeposs, page 230, Lona Thttriew, in ib de. dared that it was enormous to suppose a perms a.., necessarily rands domiciled where he firit drew breath ;, a person on a visit toe foreign country might die them, a soldier may die abroad. but that does not establish their. domicile t here the ease was different, as Col. Thornton west to France voluntarily. and had determierd to reside tans dnriag his life. According to both the English and. French laws Col. Thornton had satisfied all that was tse cessary ; because be bad stated to be of such a place in, England, and such a place in France ; the Counsel on the; ether side contended that the Colonel had two domiciles al now he contended that a man could not have two de.l sidles. Suppose a man have children in England, sad; have two domiciles ; to which country would those, children heloai ? Lord Eldon_, when Attorney Oeneral., on the 161 c Feb., 1794. gave his opinion in conjunctiou with Sir Samuel Rosin', that a men could net have two; domiciles- If a person be domiciled in Scotland sad I Englaed; and have property in Holland, how was that property to devolve ? The will of Col. Thorntbn said that certain property was to revert to the heirs, bet the questioweras, whether it want the heirs of his original tielMeibilfr his domicile, at the time of his death. The loarned r essensel sited several ether cases in support of his argument. Sir Joint Meow. in giving the jegtnent of the Court. said it was a question on the Will of Colonel Thomas Thermos, dated on the 2d October. 1819, and he died is March. 1823. The bead of the Will described him as of Thorovill• Royelviallse Ent Riding of Yorkshire, and Out the principality of . Chambaud, is the kingdom of France; he gave an his real and personal estate in trust to pay all his debts. legacies, and funeral expenses ; it authorised one Priscilla Darius to reside in any of his bosses in England or France. sad to have the use of the faroitore, 50.; to her he gave an annuity of 5001. per same ; provides for the educatioo of his natural datigh. ter until she became 21 years, and gave her a life inter est in his property ;lo failure of issue the property devolves to some other persons of his family; the trustees were authorised, with the consent of the tenant - for life, to sell any of his estates in England or France, the produce of which was to be invested in the purchase of estates is Ragland only; his furniture and other moveables to be sold. and the proceeds to become part of . the surplus to be Invested in property in England. His plate, books, paintings, Ike. were to be considered heir looms, and nut t• be sold. He gave a few small legacies, one of 1001. t• a person whom he described as Thomas Thornton, his son by his wife; he directed the possessor of the estate to take the name of Thornton, and appointed Messrs. Carhop; and Roane' executors. The will was very long one. written in English, manifested according to the English law. and was attested by three witnesses. Mr. Curling, In April last, was sworn to the testator's will, and the widow, Mrs. Thornton, pet in an allegation, which did sot affect to deny the existence of the will, but suggested i that it was not valid according to the law of France, and whitish it was the law of Freese that ought to govern the validity of the will. The allegation p le a ded that in IBIS Col Thornton went to Prince and determining to reside there, became again to England to finally arrange I his affairs, and returned to France, and fixed his residence Is Paris. In 1816, in pursuance of his determination, he applied to the King of France for his licence to domicile In France t he obtained the royal license on the 30th January, 1817, by which he enjoyed all the civil rights se low as he should remain in France, awl was created Marquis de Pouti ; he continued to reside in France until March. 1823, when he died. If a person died without making will, it was fairly to be presumed. that his property was to be disposed of according to the law of the place where be was domiciled; but if he made a will. Ms Intention was to be taken from the will itself, and his property most be so governed. Colonel Thornton was a British subject, bat reddest in a foreign country, possessed of the rights and privileges the country. and was there domiciled. Many cases had been adduced to prove to Mtn the manner of personal property being disposed of, but not one had been shown of the disposition of property under the present circumstances. After weighins well the facts of the ease as they stand, he (Sir Jobs Nichol') was decidedly of opinion that the allegation of aka. Thornton ought to be rejected, and the disposition of the will adhered to. Allegation rejected accordingly. POLICE. MANSION Horsa.—Yesterday Elizabeth Midfield, the wife of a notorious keeper of improper houses in Shire lane, was brought up for a final examinaion oo a double charge of larceny and forgery, in having stolen 3751. in Bank notes, and altered a forged Bauk Post Bill for 151. The principal facts charged against the prisoner were these :—On the first Monday in November, Mrs. Collier, the wife of a miller at Romford, was hustled near London Wall, and she believed there robbed of her purse that cow , taitied 3751. in Bank notes, besides some odd money which' she had that day received.—John Butt, shopman to Mr.l idf Bilis, of Ludgate Street , merc er, stated, on the first om ll day of November, the prisoner purchased eight yards oil silk, in payment for which she rave him a 501. nate, and wrote her address on the back." Mrs. Humpliri , s,2,l3nion Street, Newington Causeway." Witness having strong grounds for auspesting her, sent the note to the Bank, when it was declared to be a stolen note, and he detained i her. She said the reason she gave her name Mrs. Hum phries was, because her house was one for the reception of company, and that Mrs. Humphries was a relation of hens. Mrs. Humhries, however when applied to, denied any knowledge p of her. The :barge of uttering the forged Bank post bill also depended on the evidence of Mr. Ellis's shopman, who stated that in April last the prisoner pile chased about sixteen yards of silk, in payment for which she gave him a Bank post hill for 151., with an address,— " Mrs. Peat e e Lane," and received the change. The bill turned aie been stolen. No such pellet) as witness knew her when she came again to offer the 501. note. 'The 501. note was proved to be one of those stolen from Mrs. Co ' The itor for the prosecution said the charge in the was for knowingly uttering the bill, with a forg id . st. It was payable to Adam J. Little ; and it Enid be proved that when• stolen it was anindorsed, and when is was uttered by the prisoner it was indorsed `rove Little," which indorsemen t Mr. Little would prove to be a forgery. The case was remanded until yes- Aitday, to allow the evidence to be brought forward, but when called, Mt. Little was not forthcoming. The Loan MAYOR expressed bit surprise that Mr. Little had not been seat for, as it was for the purpose of ohtaining his testimony that the case was remanded. The Solicitor begged to state, in behalf of Mr. Ellis, that be was aware that if the prisoner was convicted of uttering tthe forged indorsement knowingly, she would, in all probabi- Sty, be executed. Tnough the law made it his duty to prose cute, yet his feelings prevented him from,couling forward when for such an offence the life of a fellow creature would be sa crificed. Linder these circumstances, wavering between his duty and his feelings, he begged to be allowed cot to press the charge further. Tue LORD Mayon intimated that it would he his duty to ' enforce the rosecution. --Were he to allow his feelings to interfere in such matters, he would not then be sitting in that chair. Some conversation took place between the parties in the case. Mr. Aimee, who attended for the prisoner, menlioned that if she were convicted of the larceny, she would doubtless no transported for Ilfe.--The Solicitor for Mr. Ellis milled that that would be highly desirable, and that Mr. Ellis woeld, in suc , ‘ 5 CRS!, readily collie forw .r d to prosecute. Mr. Alley obsated he knew that the feeling egair.st prosecAtiog Li -' - -5 ., . - I - easel of forgery, was very intend. and if that foals, die not prevail, the prosecutlens would be Inealcutabis tatireased. The Loan Metro* rainandell the prisoner, and gave dlrm. Lions that the parties should bersommoned to attend sad O N evidence against her. . Bow STRUM—Maris Jackson, one of the most disk. log eyrie's' who frequent the Theatres, was brought up, charged by Mr. John Wright,* wine tier:bent to Raclin Highway, with picking his pocket of a real Bandana, lan night. in the boxes of Covent Garden Theatre. Mr. Wright stated, that Miss Jacksoo and a female frietwheatne istri the box io which he was sitting with a female friend of his own, and annoyed him not a little by forcing her eoseet .i. don upon him, and occasionally reclining most lovingly t oi his shoulder. it was after one of these half embraces that she at length rose up and retired alone into the lobby, hi a f e w m inutes after which he missed his handkerchief. Sty- pecting the prisoner.• as no other person had entered box except her and her companion, he lost no time in look. log for her in the Paphian labyrinth below, where he foer:g her encircled with other " beauties" of the same class, amt gave her in charge to Donaldson. This officer confirmed the latter part of Mr. W.'s statement, eliding, however, that though be searched the prhotter immetliatety, be failed is discovering the " gemman's wipe" upon her person. - Anr e Lawson, Mr. Wright's companion, also corroborated the former part of the evidence. Foe the defence, Anne he fair one who had accompanied Miss Jackson to the Williams.ihestre, deposed. that a young gentleman had been also in the same box with theif. P4ll had quitted it apparently in a hurry. The prisoner moreover declared, that she had only left the box to tak e as " almond cake and a glass of negue," and that severe' persons remaioted behind Mr. Wright, when she quitted bib vicinity. In the absence of all aired evidence, there. fore, Mr. Halls declined committing the lady, hut directed that she should be held to bail, in case the handkerchief might be hereafter discovered. Kole CDT rev a SIIRVANT.-4nie Wright was broug up in the custody of Drum:nand, a patrul, charged by Mrs. ()sear Byrne, with robbing her of two M. notes, gold ring, aid other property.—The prisoner was en v o i ' to Mr. end Mrs. Byrne, and On Untiey evening the latter missed two 101 notes lions a place in which she bad de. posited them in the morning of the same day. 'rk t prisoner and her fellow servant were informed of the I.la, sad they assisted in searching for the notes, but that could not be foetid. An application was then wade es this Office. and Drominond went to the house, aet t is searching the prisoner's box, found a gold ring, a len cap, and ether thine, belonging to Mrs. Byrne; b 1 the disappearance of the notes was still a mystery,..: The prisoner. however. was taken to the watchtower, open the charge of stealing the ring. &c. ; cad yesterdtg morning she told Howard - . the Light constehle, that if he would take her to Mrs. Byrne's, she would find the 1(11 1 " Men.
