gallop down the hill. Hien:imprimis followed by ' le ether prisoner, who endeavoured to overtake him, and P must terrific race ensued between the two carriages, the trloclty of both increasing by their own specific reavity down an abrupt hill. The road was wide though far three carriages to pan cash other, but the pritioner, /hitter, perceiving that Pertly was keeping bin. pushed hit horses on, and, mating his hat and cheering, suddenly turned his leaders in trout ut the lenders of the Holyhead mail, which, in conse tntlelne of being jammed in between the batik of the road and the other vehicle, was immediately upset. The connquences were frightful ; the deceased was killed on the spur : the witness had a leg and an arm shattered must deumirully; and a gentleman's servant, named Fenner, was taken .up almost lifeless, and remained afterwards at St. Allian'a seven or eight days before he "(mid he removed. The witness stated that be could out identify the prisoner, Butler, hut he remembered that, just before the accident happened, he heard a person on the boa of the Chester mail cheering very loudly. in a triumphant manner, and saw that person waving his hat, and hr believed it was the coachman. After the first race Pertly spoke to Butler, and said, " Oh. it is yon I did ant think it was yen." He afterwards.olwrved to witness that Butler was a young band un that road, and did not know that he, Pertly, was to he at iteilhurn Inv pArtienlar time. Witness hail no doubt that the mis chief had occurred in consequence of the Chrstcr mall .triver having turned the leaders upon the leaders of the Holyhead, and coming so near the letter. The accident happened half a mile south of St. Alban's. Thomas Fenner, another of the null , confirmed ti .e last witness. He stated, that both the prisoners were flogging their horses at a most furious rate down the hill, and he was convinced that the arcislent might have been avoided with common care, notwithstanding the velocity with which the horses were driven, because tbere was quite room enough fur the Chester tuail to have paned the Holyhead. John Hayeork, a foot.peasenger at the time the acci dent happened, cutitirnied the statement as to the velocity of the driving. It was eleven o'clock at night when the accident happened. II linen, seeing the mischief tbat I ad been done, immediately went tor a surgeon. Mr. Webster. a sargeon of St. .%lban'a, proved that the dereand came by his death in the manner alleged. A Mr. Butler, a f r i en d a the d ed, stated, that the latter had been parish-clerk of ilagley, near Stour -I,•tilge. in Worcestersh;re, and that on the 10th of ~iigust he had dined with witness before he went off by I t' snail. The prisoner Pertly, being called upon for his defence, d•d not say any thing. The prisoner Butler said, that the horses which he were young and high moiled, and that he he -I•rrrd one of Horns had never been its harness before; t'.at they had started off in consequent., of the rattling s,t the other roads, and became unmanageable; and t'.at, if 10.000 files were at stake, it was quite out ut his yower to prevent the accident. Mr. Custwoott was Counsel for Butler, and Mr. AN PR KU SI for Pertly. It was suggested, in the course of I.•e cross-examination of the witnesses, that by the Post t•thee regulations the Holyhead mail ought to be at i.edltrio a quarter of as hour before the other •i his was as•igoed all a reason for Pertly's rapid driving. 1+ was also suggest's', that there hail heel' ■ heap of trash gravel put on the road at the place where the ac dent happened ; but this fact was negatived in evi oenee. Several witnesses gave tinder a !sigh character for civility, sobriety, and caution •t a driver. The roachtuwa o" - mi he had PM:eroded as driver of t%; i:":::er snail. stated, that the horses which he drove t•at night were high-spirited animals, and, if pet on their mettle. it was impossible tnr any busty to bold t . .em ; but that. if not dogged, they were as docile as ntlier horses. Ilse riestser Nerdy alms received !. fowl character, , and was described by the witnesses to be a civil *Art man. Mr. Baron Oa mtow gemmed up the case for the Jery , j r , ar . toqueut and impressive manner. The Jury fogad I ~.s prisoners Guilty. Stoat 01:TR %Gt.

The brick that lie jumped was so consi derable, that few men would have ventured on the ex periment made by Thistlen owl, but in circumstances as desperate as his were at that moment.

WM CITY OF JNYPOOR.

Italian was amp* supplied with the means of obtaining every sort of in formation, and after several years, returned to Jevpoor. Is is added, to ins hononr, that he brought back with him a very considerable portion of the money that had been advanced to him, anti that he died in the city which his talents and ingenuity hail principally formed * . It is possible that this story may not be correct in every particular, but it is curt sin that the arrangement of the buildings and streets of Jeypoor is superior to the genies of a Itajpusst, or any other native of India. In IMP Jeypoor becauw the refuge and sanrtuary of Moline learning, and it was from 'thence that Colonel Polies procured the first complete copy of the !Wm's, which he afterwards presented to the British Museum. Don Pedro de Silva was at that time physician to the Rajah, and many other Europeans were entertained at Court for the cultivation of scientific pursuits. With suds a disposition, there can he little doubt that the Rajah availed himself of European taste a:0 skill, for the purpose of improv ing and eudwllishing Isis city. The liberality and mag ;dikes's., of his patronage seem to 'Woge over the period in which hr reigned, though in an inferior degree, the charm which gave insportaiwe totilet of Angustas. The annexed arrount is the result of a very short visit to the splendid capital of the Ilajpoots The city of Jeypoor is enclosed on three aisles by bills of •snollerate height, surmounted by several forts and Wier works, anti at suds a distance from the town as Mt to afford it awls prutertion. The hills, though ap parently destitute of verdure, have, with their white forts, a very pretty aspect ; the town has also a food and laity wall 0f stone, and the gates are double, with large open courts between. To the west therity is open, with the exception of the wall, hut here are several castle like forts, by which the plain is overlooked and com manded. As these fortifications are frequently met with in liajnootans, they do not denote the viritiity of a royal residence, nor dues any siting else in the neigh bourlsood—the few villages scattered about, baying the missal appearance of meanness and poverty, and the couatry is particularly desolate and neml t from its deep sand, a belt of which seems to encircle Jeypoor to the extent of three or four kus. On first entering the city by the western or Ajtssettr gate, the breadth of the street, as well as ..the app arent regularity with which the Louses have been built, excites wine surprse, but here, as in all the outer parts, much ruin pre vails. It is nut until we reach the main -street, Of elaimit, that the extraordinary beauty of Jeypoee strikes the stranger, as much with delight as with the utmost astonishment, to behold an Asiatic city se agreeably dares rot to all Ise has seen before. Instead of narrow miserable streets, across which, as at Benares aad elsewhere, our might almost leap, and large houses crowded with filthy Isms, here is one, which for extent, width, and regularity, might be considered noble in any part of Europe.
