THE STAIVSMAPI CoaoNEKS' 1 NQU ESTS: YORK AbSIZES. LEYBOURNE S. !LISBURN. The plaintiff is a respectable farmer, residing near Dritfield, and the defendant, a surgeon, residing at Sher buns, a distance of 10 miles. The action was brought to recover the sum of 201. fur money lent. It appears the parties met together, at Easter 1821, at a place near Scar borough, and an acquaintance was contracted. The de fendant, on parting with the plaintiff, said be would come anti take a Lttle beef with hint. Ile was as good as his word, and became a frequent visitor. On one ( f these occasions, the lilaintiff happened once to complain of a head-ache. The surgeon said he would neon cure him of that, and advised him to have a tannin the neck. phis recommenda•hin was adopted. Soon after this, the defendant, perceiving he had been well re'eived, and treated with hospitality, thought he might presume a little on their friendship. Ile then applied for the loan of 201. The plaintiff at first demurred a little, for their i i rquaietance had been but of short duration, and he bad previously known nothing of the defendant. Mr. liar burn offered his gold watch as a security for the money; but this the plaintiff declined, and lent it without any pledge but the promise to return it in a fortatight, did not, however, pay it in that time; and.after waitieg twelve months, Mr. Leybourne bad now found it neces sary tq bring this action for-its recovery. After appli cation made , the defendant at length wrolg twsay Its wished t to be informed what interest was-due opoe the 2&, as he was disposed to come to a settlement. The plaintiff was under the necessity of applying to his attorney, and he wrote to him also acknowledging the deht, but, for the first time he stet up a counter-demand. The defendant, it wouldsiena, besides being a eon of Es culapiustsvaelilse Ottapod, a member of a volontrer corps. So that, in chinning this set-off, he says, wbea the account is arranged; helms an affair of honour to set.: tie. lie sends an account Ilf t41..Wir.44,f0r curing• the plaintitrs head-ache. Nothing said& be more absurd and untenable than..a demand of this destripion, an rawer to a demand (if 20f. for money borrowed. •The fendant might possibly have visited the plaintiirs motheev Mho resided near him; hut if lie bad, the %Vas able tai pay her own surgeon's bill, and it would be ridiculous' waking such a charge to him who had never desired his attendance. • 31r. Jas. Johnson and Mr. R. Jenning's the Tisintitri. attorney and attorney's clerk, proved en admission of the NM. being borrowed, and produced the letter of the defendant containing an acknowledgment of it. He stated that the 20/. had been paid on account for teedi• eines, but allowed that be had delivered no bill. Jonathan lOntroats proied the *commencement of the soinaintance itsuweiets the parties, the promise of the defendant to come to take beef with the plaintiff, anti his fulfilment of it: ,He is a Dear neighbour anti ne:er know the plaintiff to have occasion for the service+ of a doethr. slr. Raebure cause as a visitor, and so metimes called upon him. Oh his cross-examination lie said he did not know bow ninny stints the defendant might.make. He got no beef of the whom'. He did not knaw of the pl diva being o bliged to take mercory, or having any complaint but a pain in his finger. s:i4s Mary Imiiibert proved the defendant's frequent visits at the bongo of her uncle, Mr. Levhourne. He once ccimplained of a bead•acile. The defendant recom+ mended a seton in the neck. The plaintiff was. averse to it, but at last consented. Mr. Rarburn pot in the sews but sfte found the ointment and dressed it. bemelf. • She never saw any medicine sent by tiw defendant bat' one small vial bottle. This evidence was confirmed by Assn Kirby,. the ser. vent ; and Mr. O. Brown, an spotheeartysssaid 58. was t h e usual charge for putting in a setou, but 7s. tid. or 101.6 th were outside charges. Mr. WAILES, as Conmel•for the defendant, urged the prOhability of the plaintiff having an illness unknown able r to the family, and said that b e wonld prove.by retot witnesses, that at a meeting between ' the parties, hir.lieys b.surne admitted the charge of Ott defendant to lie rea eonsbleilf lie would reduce it to 201. taking elf the odd 41. 104.4 d. which he refused to do. • • Mr. Jae. Akiersort, surgeon, •statest that in Oct. last be n was an assistant to the d efendant, and was present .at couveriation between the plaintiff and defendant, whets the former admitted the latter's detnand to be satisfactory if he weuld• deduct 41.101. 441. F. W. flotham, a pupil of Mr. 'taci t urn, deposed to the same remsrk of the platiliff. After his Lordship had•commented on the evidence, the Ju-v returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Dantages " Twoni y ' p o unds, with literVit,nekgtsg• off 71• 6 d. for the seton.

POLICE, 6VILDITALL.—A respectable bill and exchange broker in the city, was brought up on Saturday before the Sit ting Magistrate, Sir C. FLOWER, charged with stealing a coach and horses. The prisoner, it appeared, was strolling homewards,. pretty highly charged with the juice of the grape, about. half an hour after one o'clock in the morning of Good Friday, when he was observed by the watchman in Al dersgate-streer, to leave the foot-path, and make a very minute survey of a hackney-chariot that was on the stand, the driver of which was at the time taking a very comfortable nap on the steps of a door a few yards OE* He walked round it two or three times, then opened the door and examined the inside, and having ascertained it was quite deserted, very deliberately mounted the loot, took the whip and reins in his hands, and calling to the ' watchman to shut the door , dr ove off at a sharp trot. he watchman, who, from the authoritative manner in which the prisoner gave his orders , at first con j ectured he might be the owner of the roach, and had obeyed his instructions in shutting the door, began to suspect if might he a /ark, and went to call the coachman, whom' the well known noise of the rattle of his wheels b s o mewhat roused front his slumbers, and they both . set off in pursuit. The prisoner, who, it came out, is a very good whip himself, having got a fair start, would, however, most probably have distanced his p ursuers, but in the very height of his triumphal career. he was met by another hackney teach, the driver of which knew the chariot,' sod seeing s smart gentleman on the box, instead of his brother Jarvis, smoked the trick, and, drawing his coach across the road to stop the passage— " Vliere are you going Ali that 'ere chariot ?" said he. " Vhv, home," replied the gentleman, endeavouring to imitate the coachman's lingo. Coacher, however, was not to be done, and before lie could he prevailed upon to let him pass, the real coach man and his companion, the guardian of the night, came up, and the Corinthian was conveyed from the box to the Compter, having first been paraded before his Honour; the Constable of the Night. The explanation which he attempted to give of his conduct before the Magistrate was, that he w . as tired,and ;really wanted a coach home ; that he called "Coach" se- Vera( times, and waited at least ten minutes, and seeing joo coachman, mounted the box at last merely in the ex lpectation that that would bring him. He told this story, ihos ever, in a manner that made it obvious he did not ex 'pea *it to be believed, and the Alderman having aster •tsitsed' his respectability, the gentleman at the saute time expressing himself sorry for his foolish frolic, and wil ling to make any recompence, allowed him to withdraw to settle with his accuser. The (Tatham' having thus learnt he had gut a awe!! customer, became so exorbitant in his demands, that the Alderman was obliged to be again appealed to, antistind log that the gentleman had, even before the hearing, offred to give the cachma a tovereign for the trouble lie hid occasioned hi o m, whic n h the latter had indignantly refused as tun little, took upon him to assess the damages himself, and, after obses s ing that the driver was hiniself liable to a penalty fur leaving his coach in the street un attended, and that but fur his Loki negligence, the affair could not have happened, awarded that the offender should pay the'prosecutor 3s. for tbe loss of his morning's work, to attending the Justice-town, and lie dischar avie ge and Thos. d.
