She did not go farther than the room w ag s od her mistress kept in the back parlour. She ; r id hare gone into the room, but the doctor would art let her. N T . Joseph Brindley, of Richardson street, a pupil nicray'sHospital, deposed, that he was passing along Weston•street on Thursday evening, when a female at fated hint respecting a surgenn, and on his saying be _ es w rap, she desked him to step in as there was '"isiaa. Witness went in, and found Dr. Jamieson Ma r , h i be having been called in fi rst. On his go of i n to the parlour be saw the body of Mr. Harmer in chair, and at Mr. Jamieson 's request be went to but he was not at home; how orb Doctor Grainger, or, lie met Mr. Price, one of his pupils, and they re. _ reed tal oa. The handkerchief was taken off de -7,304e b e ad, and there appeared an oblique wound nor t he orbit of the eye, which penetrated into the %rein. Witness felt his wrist, but pulsation had ceased— liss no doubt but the wound was the occasion of his death. John Kl u say, the officer, stated, that he was sent Air hews. eight and nine o'clock on Thursday night to the aneeused's house, No. 6, Weston-street, Mass .. Jamieson, the surgeon, admitted him, and found t he prisoner in the back parlour crying and stamping like a m aniac. He inquired what was the towe ? an d sh e replied in the greatest distraction, "I hoe murdered my husband." In the nest room he saw the body of the deceased on a chair , with a handker vbisf over his face; pulled the handkerchief off, and A .„ n d ar t was dead. Several gentlemen were in the r um% and three and were placed on a table with the corks all down, and one of them had the appearance al having been recently discharged ; the others did not i ppear to have any priming in them ; at all events *ere hel keen no flash in the pan. They were both loaded ( no s hall—(lsere they were produced) and the charges wee still in them. After the surgeons hail retied, wit en,r with the assistance of Jos. Welch and W. r Kinsev, took the body of the deceased up stairs and laid it on a mi ttres. anti searched the pockets. They found on his persona silver watch, which was also guintr, also 194. ver, and Is. copper, and amongst the latter 14 sil five oistol balls and t a t piece of lead ; the bullets fitted the pistols. In Isis great coat pocket they found two i m ir of pistol bags, containing two bullet moulds, and two powder flasks full of powder, and also a pocket book. He then sent for a coach and took the prisoner to the Borough Conipter, where she remained all night. No further evidence b e ing forthcoming on this rim. l ion, the prisoner was called on for her defence; but, be the A dvice of her Solicitor, she des:lined saying any She was then ordered; o he remanded till th e nex W t Mon day, and was accordiney c ondsictesl into eis. mite's private parlour, where shy remained till four clock, when she was conveyed in a coach to the Coayter.

LONDON: SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 26, 1821. f-- In the House of Commons last night the Orampound Disfranchisement Bill was returned, as amended, from the House of Lords, and on the motion of Lord J. Ros si:lA, the Lords' Amendment were agreed to be taken into consideration on Wednesday next. By what could Ibe inferred from the conversa t i on that took p lace on the occasion, no opposition is designed on the part of the original promoters of the Bill, for Lord MILTON intl.' mated his intention to bring in another Bill fur taking the Poll in the County of York. On the Report on the Bill for mitigating the punishment for Forgery being brought up, Sir JAMES NI ACKINTOSH proposed to except the forgery of wills, marriage-registers, and transfers of stuck, from the operation of the Bill ; and on intro ' during these a:neolments observed that in so doing he sacrificed his own opinion. Another amendment moved by Dr. LusittNwrom, substituting hard labour for ten years, instead of transportation, was also agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be recommitted on Mon• day next. _.—........—_ , A liamburgh mail has arrived this mornin; s• out adding much to the stock of forei , n intelligence we had previously received. Paris papers of Wednes day, had reached us by express by which we had ac counts from Vienna, dated May l•_'th, 11y these accounts we find that the news from Lavbach varies from day to day; and (Nen on the same day is differently stated. In one article it is sld that the Emperor Alexander will leave Layhach to - mot row, awl that the Emperor of Austria will quit it after receiving a deem" ration from the Lombartlo-Venetian kingdom, on the 13th. On the other hand we learn, from a private letter of the saute date, that though it had been stated with sufficient probability that the conferences at Lay bach were concluded, considerations of high importance have decided otherwise. The Congreas, as we men tioned yesterday, was understood to be prolonged, and contequently the residence of the Emperors of Austria and Russia, and the ministers of great powers at I. iy bach, may yet be of some duration. This intelligence has opened a vast field for political conjecture. and g i ve n circulation to a mu ltitude of reports, every one more contradictory than another. A c counts from Constant inople, dated the 10 th , state, according to these papers, that the Grand Vizier is deposed, and 11(.1001-Ali Pawpaw appointed his successor, The Porte, said, is making vigorous preparations against theTtisurgents, and the new Grand Visier is soon exp ected, and is to bring with him numerous troops fro n Asia. Through the same comm un i ca tion from Vienna, to which we have al luded, we learn that letters from Peters!‘itrvl, confirm the reports of extraordinary movements in the Rus sian armies , w hich ate concentrating on different points, and that the Imperial Guard has definitively left that capital and marched towards the frontierts s. We learn also from Trausylvania, that the s ubjec of Russia, serving with the Greek Insurgents , have not vet obeyed the order of their Govern ment, requiring 0314 return to Russia within eig On ht days, a period which had alrea ly expired. the contrary, it appears that a new Gree corps l klately org anized at Jassy h as marched to o j have been some oin the arniy of Prince Ypsilanti. There appear t sanguinary actions in the Morea, and we are assured that the 'rurlsish troops have been repuleed on several points by the Insurgents. By recent accounts received in England direct from '!.ante, we are inffrormede that no fewer than 15,000 Greek refugees, om th Morea chiefly, have thrown themselves on the protection and humanity e the lonian Government, a nd that a Revo lution had taken : Slave in the island of Hydra, one of the richest in the Archipelago, inhabited wholly by Greeks, and to which the greatest number of vessel' , under that flag belorg.

In the case of Magee r. 01;orman, which was an action for deceit, there was a demurrer to the declaration, or a motion in arrest of judgment. The defendant, in that ease, produced to the plaintiff a report of time trial, a s correct, ii hielt trial plaintiff published; this was fonn•l to be a libel; an action vas brought against time plaintiff, and miatnaees recovered.

If this child died poseessed of personal pro pertv, the father's affidavit would hr received, and be could - claim the property in his own right.

Nis Lordship stated that it was an action which related to the sex of me Chevalier, and never had his Lordship seen a Courtti so awfully impressed as Westminster Hall was during the hearing of that cause. lord Mansfield, who presided, laid it down as time law, that no two persons shall enter into a contract which shall involve time feelings of a third, or which may lead to any investigation which may involve the feelings of a third party. Mr. BLACKBURNK resumed. Ile intended to mention the case to which Lord Norbury bad alluded : that was an action brought to recover the amount of a wager mde between the parties as to the sex of the Chevalier D'Eo o n, and a wager was as valid a contract as one entered into as to the chastity of a man's intended wife. In all cases of Criminal Conversation, the plaintiff accuses the de• fendant of trespasses, but the law will not permit him to accuse his wife. If she consents to the a violated the marriage contract. la tbs cats of Chevalier D'Eoo, Lord Mansfield thus expressed . himself : " Suppose two per sons had laid a wager as to whether a married woman had coMmieted adultery, or not ; or whether an unmarried MIME% bad bad a child, or not ; such contract) were not By the Act fur ascertaining the population of the kingdom, the windier Of persons in each family, with t heir amen, are to he ascertained on Monday next.
