Mr. BUTLER. the Clear of Mr. Harmer the Attorney, attended on the part of the prosecution. The Magistrate asked, who could identify the prisoner? ' Mr. Upson, a Bow•street Officer, came forward and proved that he was the person mentioned in the warrant, and against whom a true bill of indictment was found. The prisoner said that he bad no bail in attendance, and he was committed in default. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Alooosv, Nov. 3. ... 0 .. Before Mr. Justice BUR— ... and a Special Jury. WOIP v. LIND°. This was an action to recover the min of 2371., being the balance due from the defendant, on the final settlement of an account between the plaintiff and him, for stock-brok ing transactions, in which the defendant bad been employed as agent. Mr. Sergeant VAUGHAN said, that there would be no doubt of the verdict being given for the plaintiff, as the admission of the debt would be proved. There was a question of law, however, likely to arise, which had been once already reserved by the Court, but yet not ruled, as to the legality of the transactions out of which the claim had arisea—uamely, time-bargains in foreign funds. The ver dict must be given for the plaintiff. as he apprehended, until that question should be settled by the proper and adequate authorities. 1 he account was proved, together with the admission of the debt. Part of the account was for time-bargains • other parts of it were real transactions upon Russian , Cbilian, and Spanish securities. Mr. sergeant Pact., for the defence, resisted the claim on the ground of the illegality. lie admitted that the case' of bargaining in foreign securities might not fall within the remedy of Sir Jobn Barnard's act against gambling in the English funds, because that question had never arisen, and therefore, had not been determined. But it must be clear that the offence was within the mischief of that act,, and he was fairly entitled to maintain, until the reserved question were ruled,thst the offence was against the common law of the land. He was convinced that it was against policy awl good morels and the interests of the community; and he saw no difference, as a lawyer, between throwing the dice and wagering upon a price to be fixed on remote and alto getber unforeseen contingencies. The clerk if the defendant proved parts of the account to have arisen on time bargains. Mr. Justice • UtIRROLMII would not interfere with the question of the legality of time-bargains, because it had already been reserved for the Judges. He expounded the evidence as it bore upon the particular items in the account, in proving which were time-bargains and which not. The Jury rernrned a verdict for the plaintiff for 2.171.—0 f that sum 251. 17s. lld. being for real tranbactidns. Mr. Sergeant Pau. obtained leave to move the Court with in the first four days of term fora reduction of the damages to 251. 17s. 11d. Mr. Sergeant VAUOBAN, for theplaiotiff, obtained leave' to ha►e the verdict recorded, with leave to the plaintiff to enter up a verdict for 254 178.11 d. if lie should choose to abandbn his claim to the residue; and in default of that, the defendant to have his motion as first granted. with bletoilfi• and - a sitspielos ntso r mien/ .4 her wind that thie second marriage was a sontrivenee of her first husband, liMetqatted.Metoelf entirely at the end of one month, Mid has ;new lance resided or cohabited with him. , • possiag this lung interval, Metcalf again entered into the holer Mate of matrimony, and has now a wife and five or six children, and living respectably in the neighbourhood of Walworth. Mr. Lewis, who by Meteslre account bad been looking for hint for the last fifteen or sixteen years, at length found him out, persuaded him to attend him to Mr. Hat .mer's, from whence they adjourned to this office, where he was induced to lay an information on oath, upon which a warrant was issued to apprehend Mrs. Lewis on a charge of bigamy. No soaner had Metcalf taken this step, than he began to feel ashamed of his conduct, and not a little ilia med at its consequences, even to himself; and from that time to the present. neither promises, summons, or warrant have been aisle to bring him forward to give evidence. Mrs. Lewis, who is a respectable 'stoking woman, noc verging upon 60,11 as in consequence been remanded from day to day since Wednesday last ; but no evidence has been produced against her, with the exception of the certi ficates of the two marriages, and the testimony of a lad who is clerk with Mr. Lewis, who stated that she hail been twice at the chambers within the last two months, insisting on seeing Mr. Lewis, as he was her lawful husband. Mr. HUMP:IRIES, who attended yesterday fsr Mrs. Lewis. urged that in a prosecution for bigamy, the first marriage must be proved to be good both in law and in fact, and the person of the accused identified ; and as nothing approach ing this had been done, he claimd that Mrs. Lewis should be discharged. Mr.IIARPIER 4 who has appeared for the prosecution, as Solicitor for Mr. Lewis, contended that sufficient had been proved to authorize the magistrate to commit for trial; — though he allowed there was not sufficient to ensure a con viction. It would be for him to-take care that the proper evidence was produced at the Old Bailey. Mr. Alderman ATKINIS held that he was entitled as a Magistrate to the hest evidence the case adniitted of, and having given sufficient time fur the production out, he should now discharge the prisoner, and Airs. Lewis was accordingly set at liberty. ALLEGED VIOLATION.—In The Statesman of Thursday we reported the circumstance of a man named Samuel Williams having been accused before the Magistrates of the above office of violating a girl, one of seven who had been bound by the parish of St. Luke and St. Giles, sp. prentices to his wife, to learn tambouring. On that occasion lie was summoned to shew cause why the inden tures of these apprentices shotild not be cancelled, and yesterday he appeared to answer to the summons. The Churchwardens of St. Luke, accompanied by Mr. WOOO, who acted as solicitor, attended to enforce the complaint. The. statement of Elizabeth Bower was repeated some what more circumstantlolly than on Wednesday, but with out adding much to the evidence. It appeared, however, that the first time the violence was offered to the complainant she informed her mistress, who, believing she told a false hood, shut her tip on the followiog day, as a punishment. An old lady, the nurse of the workhouse, also gave it as her opinion that the girl had suffered violence, and been seriously injured. Sarah Ann Smith, another of the apprentices, denied that her master had ever offered violence to her; but she acknort [edged that she bad told Bower he had done so. The parish officers said, on this evidence they were resolved } to indict the prisoner for the capital offence; but the M•glstrates being of opinion that if limy did, the indicttoent would tail; he was ordered to find Mal, two sureties in 401. each, to stand his trial for the assault. The prisoner's wife was present during the investigation, and expressed her resolution to take refuge with her child in she workhouse, and have nothing more to do with her husband. Saturday, about three o'clock, the Doke of It ark arrived in town from Cbeveley H4ll, Camfir •e, where his (Loyal .s, Highness bad been on a visit to the Duke of Rutland. We understand there are now very few of the hosiers who have not agreed to deliver out work according to the statement of 1819, and great hopes are entertained, that in another week or two, the trade will again be put on a snore equitable footing for all parties.—(Nottingharn Ree.) A circnnistance has occurred connected with the present turn-out of the framework knitters, which we feel it our duty to m, utioo. On Tuesday morning, some persona in Arnold having resolved to bring in two frames, belonging to the house of John Allen and Sens, in this town, pro cured a waggon for that purpose, and a number of females, principally young girls, were employed to draw it, in order, as we suppose, to excite greater attention. The frames were put into the waggon, mounted upon their wood works, and two men, bedizened with red herrings and potatoes, were apparently endeavouring to work them, and whenever they ceased, other men in the wag gon pretended to compel them to work. The waggon was also decked out with various mottoes, which we forbear to re;eat. Thus prepared, and preceded by a hand of music! the exhibition reached Nottingham, attended by a considerable number of people; but instead of proceeding directly to Cluwber Street, and alone the Market Plade, to St. James's Street, they took a circuitous route dowo York Street, and into Glasshouse Street and Broad Street, where of course the concourse people becansw very great ;* and several men in the waggon, held oat their hats, and collected the pence which were liberally bestowed, thus soaking themselves liab'e to be committed under the vagrant act. In this way they came along Stoney-street, to the front of Dr. Wyltie's house, and along St. Mary's Church-side, where they raised a shout. The magistrates of course did their duty, in putting a stop to such a proceeding, by which a riot was likely to be engen dered ; a body of constables soon made their appearance, and arrested the leading horses of the team, who soon were released ferns the ropes, and suffered to depart; the musicians ran some one way and some another. The waggon was taken down to the jO, where the frames were deposited, amidst the loud cr;es of the people, who ex claimed, " That's the right place for then,, they ought to' have be n long ago, for norking at reduced prices t" roar men and one woman - were also conducted within the strong walls, sod the waggoktaken to the pound. One man and the woman were soon after re'eased, and the three other men obtained their liberty the saw night, on entering into sureties for their, good behaviour for twelve months, and paying their fees; and the waggon was released from " durance vile'! next morning. The poor men have sto undoubted right to bring in their frames, if they think proper, to those masters who will not give the full price; but, as we have said before, bands of music are highly improper, neither ought mottoes or effigies to be indulged in; and we hope the Leeson which has thus been given, will prevent others from so wantonly violating the laws, and [ endangering the peace of this populous town. IVe believe that only a few individuals at Arnold, were con cerned in the p lanning of this affair, to which they were ,instigated principally by the hope of collecting money for their unhappy families, and we piope that it will not p:e judica the manse of the framework knitters at large, who have, as far as we can learn, conducted themselves wit., exemplary propriev.— Voting/tarn Review.) [ On Sunday night, about halt past ten o'clock, a fire broke out on the premises of a Mrs. M'Quin, .in Prince,- Street, adjeiningtfreat Hermitage Street, East Smithfield. About the time stated, the watchman perceived a dread' ful smoke issuing from the premises, and gave an alarm.' ,The neighbdurhood being aroused, the door was burst open, upon whick the. interior of the dwelling was in one body of film% The parish and other engines mien 'arrived,. and reeinced the ronflagratioe as far as to enable them to enter the lower parts of the house, where the body 'of Mrs. 4 .4 40 in was discovered in the back paribur.

It was conveyed to the bone-bouse, where it livs for the inquest. . • • ElkactiViows Scort.exp.—On Wednesday last, Francis Colo, Cotton-spinner, aged 17, for highway robbery and One. Laidlaw, v right, for house-breaking, were executed at Glas gow, pursuant to their sentence. They exhibited an macaw. mon degree of fortitude, the result of sincere repentance and perfect resignation, which was never more conspicuous than im the conduct of these unhappy criminals. Cain, who was • _Roman Catholic, was attended by a clergyman and another person of his profession ; Laidlaw was acaompanied by the Rev. Mr. Smyth and Mr. Stewart. Aft , r a considerable titne spent In fo-rveut prayer, the culprits were law idled into eter nity. Laidlaw died with scarcely a struggle; Cain was mote convulsed ; hut In a few minutes they were b deed. On Wednesday last Robert Scott, convicted at the Jedhurgti Circuit, of thu murder of two men, Simm and Aitchison, wa4 executed on a scaffold erected near the spot where the erimer were committed, a little to the east ward of the village of Fauns. The unhappy man behaved with great penitence, liras: ness, and r-signation. . . _ On the kl 9 II ult, an inquest was taken by J. Wright. Geat.,, coroner, at Willoughby on the Woulds, on the holy of Miss.- beth Harding, hi years of age. who on the '27th instant, was found lying at the foot of a bank, about six feet high, nest her dwelling. It appeared she hail attempted to get on or come down such bank. in order to go a nearer way to another part of the town. and fallen eowu the bank. Tee bonnet she had on was torn be the thorns in the fence on the top of the bank. When found she was in a state of total insensioility, and on being laid on her bed instantly expired. Verdict—Accident it Death. On the 20th inst. an alarming tire broke out at IV mler, in e house belonging to Sir Horace St. Paul, Bart., anti occupied by severe' tenants, but by the great exertions of the nei Aboors, it was fortnnmely soon extinguished. .

Proprietor. LONDON SESSIONS, MONDAT, Nov. 3. DISTURBANCE IN WIIITECROSS•STRIIIIT PRISON. Two. persons named Bey/geld and White were tried upon an Indictment, charging them with having violently assaulted Mr. Brown, a creditor of White, in Whitecross street, on the 23J of May. Mr. Brown stated. that White was a prisoner, who was indebted to him, and that on the 231 of May he received a letter from White. requesting that be would call upon him to accommodate the difference between them. Witness went to Whitecroes-etreet prison, and saw White in a private room, bat that Written:lan, instead of acting as a debtor ought to act, spoke in a cavalier tone about Mr. Brown's conduct iu the Insolvent Debtors' court, and complained of ill usage. Soon afterwards, two men, with blackened faces sod sleeves tucked up, entered, and told him be most depart. Ife refused. Some confusion took place, and White pointed out Witness and said he was the man. The two men then approached him while he had a pen-knife in his band, and with which be was picking his nails, and called out for a red hot poker to make bim drop the pen-knife. He was then seized, dragged to the pump, pumped upon, covered with ashes, dirt, and saw-dust, after which he was 'pelted out of the prison. A person named Bampton confirmed the above statement. There was no evidence that hayfield had taken an active part in the assault. White has, it appeared, a wife and seven children. _ _ . The Jury acquitted Bayfield, and found White Guilty, but recommend him to mercy. The Knout:ma said, the assault was a most atrocious one, and it was evident Mr. Brown had been enticed to the prison, in order that he might be treated with the violence that bad been dealt to Cm. In consequence of the recommendation of the Jury, the Court would - mitigate the punishment, but it was necessary that an example should he made ; and Mr. White must for two months submit to hard labour in the House of Correction (the tread mill). POLICE. GutLailacc.—A very curious case of bigamy, which has occupied the attention of the magistrate at this office, in one shape or another, fur five several days, was yesterday brought to a conclusion, which leaves the parties in precisely the same situation as when the prosecution commenced. The history of the case, as collected from the narrative of the licensed party, and the evidence detailed against her, is as follows : One Mr. Randle Lewis, who is now described as a convey. sneer, No. I, Garden-court, Middle Temple, was married at Whitehaven so far back as February, 1792, to a female named Eliza Jones, with whom he received a fortune of 2,0091. or thereabouts. According to the statement of this female, whom shall now call Mrs. Lewis, the conduct of her husb and to wards her, as soon as the property was dissipated, was so in famous es to render it Lepussitrie for her to rive with him, and she in consequence left hue house, and hired herself as a go verness in a family in the country. A suit was subsequent in stituted against the husband for alimony, and to avoid the con sequences of it, hr left the oountry with a view to become a settler at Botany Bay. In his flight he was followed as far as Portsmouth, but the officer had not the proper authority to detain him, and as he did not appear to the suit, be was ulti mately excommunicated et St. Bride's church. Many years after this period, a young man of the name of Thomas Metcalf, a member of a religious Society to. which Mre ak Lee is belonged, either was, or affected to be, so deeply in hole with her as even to endanger his life. In vain she urged that she had a husband a:ive ; Metcalf was sure that he must be dead ; his friends urged her compliance ; the bands were put up without either h.r Fnowledmr or consent; and a mar , riaga celebrated between her and Metcalf at St. Giles's, Crip plegate, in November, IS/23. A conviction that her former husband was still nave, and her own remorse of conscience, rendered her very unhappy during the short time sire stayed • i IfsA^ r • • ; •Fig:lJr ; frig:Pew' q mar NT .4 •1. ria . i • Ike p ? 4•137 TE. whoa t .111edionlei 4%1 goostfod,. . - Tb.
