'141.1 CUNSISTORY COURT,DOCTOUSTOM MONS,Nov.B DECISION ON THE PATENT COFFIN CASE. This important and novel proceeding, which had been arue,: at great length on a firmer day, came on for judrincnt hefiire Sir \Vrn. Scott this morning. It was a snit brought by John Gilbert parishioner of St. Andrew's Holborn, against John Ilitswood and William Boyer, churchwardens, fur the offence of obstructing the interment of his wire, Mary Gil bert. After stating in substance the criminating articles, and the defensive allegations, the Learned Judge proceedid in a long and elaborate speech to &liver the opinion of the Court, on the question of right which had been submitted fix its tkcision.— Sir William first took a view of the ditkrent modes of disposing of the remains of the dead, recorded in history, and then came to consider the argument relative to particular ceffins. With respect to the ditkrence in the duration of the coffins of wood and coffins of iron, it was, said the Learned Judge, the bult a the party complainant, it beim , ' left by him to judge of this matter, without sufficient inilirma time, 1 judge amiss in holding, that coffins of iron are non h more, perhaps doubly more durable than •boic of wood. 11; thereihre, these iron coffins are ring additional charges upon pari,hes, they .0 bring widi them a proportionate compen lk,ll all common principles of estimated •na pay lir the longer lease which you the ground.

He was .teld tint' some moments in this postore, during which time he felt his watch escape from his fob, and his 'soc kets were deliberately ransacked, bit: fortunatjAy he had nothing upon his petson of particular value, excepting his watch. After having investigated the contents of his pockets, the soblwrs released him as sudden:) , as they had seized hint, and decamped down the alleys near the place. Before they disappeared, however, the prosecutor kat sufficient litne to recognise the person of the prisoner, and to see hint hand his watch and seats to another • the gan;t. The prosecutor porstied the prisoner with the cry of " stop thief!" down an alley near the spot, railed Catherine-wheel-alley, when lortuuately a labouring man passing up the heard the cry, and seized the prisoner as he was running, and detain. d him until the prosecutor came up, who would not otherwise, from ituric..ey and dar'uess of the place, have been able to have caught the robber. Another gelid! man who was present in the Office recomise I the prisoner as the matt who had !ribbed into only a few cvessitr,,, bcitere.

ALLEGED AITMAL UPON Loan LIVERPOOL.— On Friday J u te Harris, a respectable-kinking elderly woman, was brought Op on a warrant charging her with an assault upon the Right !lots. the Earl of Liver pool, and als r with an :memo to excite a breach of the peace. Anthony Thomi*on, a patrole of this office, stated, that soon after nine o'clock ('et Thursday mornin,l, as he was walking b hind the Earl of Lit erpoel ;Ili a o th er Noblemen down Kin z-sueet, Westminster, tow4rds the Nouse of Lords, he heard sonic person in the shop of Alf. Loftus, a ,:rocer, "- that's him—there he goes," and in a moino.iseut atierwards the defendant rushed out of the shop, passed the witness, and placing herself in front ut Lord Liverpool, snnuk her fist in his face, and exclaimed " Oh, you r— I You old t—." His LUlthillp and those with hint started back, and they avoide.l her by st.paring a ide. Or; her return Lack to the shop, she accosted the witness, um!, pointing to Lord Liverpool wade use of the same l ati ;ple. The witness GLl:isequently called at isoftta's aim wiring ascertali. ed the defendant's residence, he procured a warrant for her apprehension' 'j'he defendant, in the course of the ei.ove statement, THE NATIONAL REGISTER repeatedly interrupted the witness by exclatnations of " Good God I how utterly false; what will become of you," &C. In her defence she said, that never havin seen the Noble Lord, she requested Mr. Loftus to point him out as he passed, and she ran in front of him and exclaimed " the t net is 1" She declared before God that this was the truth. Sir Robert Raker asked her who and what the was? Defendant—" I am the wife of a butler to a family of distinction, in Dins,'tsliiie." Sir It. Baker.—" is the name of the family, and of your connections, which you have said are tespect- Dofetulant.—" I tm perfectly innocent of the charge and I do not choose to dis 4 race my friends by mention iog their names in this place." Two gentlemen w tic) came with Mrs. Harris, declared her 10 be a wonnin ui irriltruaellable character, and ex pressed their disbelief of the charge. Mrs. Harris again, in a most solemn manner protested her ilmocsuce, additig,—" 1 ant sure, if the Noble Lord liimsekwas here, he would declare that I never uttered the expressions imputed to me." Sir H. Ildker.—..“ In dll probability von will have an opportunity of beim; confronted with his Lordship." One of the gentlemen who came with the defendant, observed with a smile, that he did not think the Earl of Liverpool would give himself any trouble about so paltry an affair." Sir It Baker.—" I don't think it a paltry affair. Per haps von think the officer's account true ?" Tne defendant's friend said, he certainly was more inclined to believe Mr. Harris's statement. Sir It. baker.—"'That is your opinion." 'f he defendant was then ordered to tied bail, herself in 4nl. and t•wo sureties in ..,;01. for her appearance at the Westminster Sessions. Alessrs. A. I). Stewart and Joseph Soper, of No. 4, Charles -street, VVesttninstcr, army azents, Mintt.,hately became her sureties, and she was discharttud. DREADFUL Pint`.—An alarming fire broke out at half:past four o'clock on Thursday afternoon in the saw ing-yerd of Mr. Gillespie, timber merchant, in Drury-lane. It burned furiously for nearly two hours, and illuminated the whole of AVestminster, the flans resisting every cant of the engines to subdue them. The fire communicated to sonic ad jacent houses, and four of them were soon reduced to ruins, making its progress towards Martlett-court, where the inhabitants were in the utmost consterna tion, as were those in the whole of that cloe neigh bourhood. It was found necessary to raze some premises to prevent the flames from spreading.— The blaze of the mass of timber occasioned the greatest alarm throughout the metropolis, as it was supp.;el Drury-lane theatre was on fire, and the crowds that rushed towards the place from all quar ters, soon blocked up the passages. The number of persons assembled was incalculable, as the crowds that were returning from the Lord Mayor's proces sion all hastened to the scene of conflagration and ruin. It was piteous to hear the screams of women and children, flying from their habitations, many of the inhabitants leaving their goods and furniture a prey to the flames, which spread with the utmost rapidity, in cenvequence of the high wind which blew from the north-east. AVe have not been able to ascertain the amount of the damage, but many poor people, we fear, have suffered severely.—We have net hearil that any lives were lest.
