.K~ . • ..,. ~ ... LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KIWI'S BENCH, F. 18. HALL V. PICKARD. This was an action upon the case, brought bythe Plaintiff, who is a stable-keeper, against the Defeat.; ant, *be is a fishmonger at oolwich, for so asi= gl4eutly driving his cart as to run its shale:tee the body of the Plaintiff's horse, which he had let to job In the carriage of the Rev. Dr. Carey, Head Master of Wasteslooter School, by which accident the • aid mal died, and - the Plaintiff lost the profit hi taught derlie from letting the hdrse' to hire, &c. On the , part of the Plaintiff, it was proved by ,the Rev. Dr. Carey, and by his coachman and fobtasan, neither of whom had any liability in the cause, that the Doctor's carriers was driving quietly ,along the Greenwich-road, making towards the bridge over the Surrey Canal, the Doctor, Mrs. Carey, and a yottng lady, being inside 'the carriage, and thel coachman and footman in their usual places ; and that they bad just overtaken a single-horse dirt, and were recoVering their situation on the left side of the road, when, in consequence-Of the ebliqhe direction of the carriagef Hte,Doctor saw the, art . of the De fendant, and 'god Greenwich di Woolwich sine. coaches, drivitie l'ahriusly twelfth dein down the, big, the Ifefe ed appearing to be racing with the stage-coaches, mid looking beck towards th* to see whether they gained upon hint or dot. :The • Doctor was apprehensive of some accident,' and al thouch the'Defendant had the reins' hartin Ms hand, be had not time to pull op hie cart before one of Its. shafts was in the body . of one of the Plaintiff's horses. The road was 40 feet wide, and the Doc tor's carriage was eight feet from his left side of the roati ; it was , lo feet by admeasurement to the left side of the road, from the ploughed-up ground which was occasioned by tare shock and repulse of the De fendeet's cart. The Doctor considered it providen tial that his carriage bad not made a nearer approach to that side of the road ; otherwise the Defendant's cart must have come against the carriage and not the horse, and the lives of the passengers themselves might have been endangered. As soon as the acci den.. happened, the Doctor alighted, and the De fendant at first behaved - very well upon, the occasicn, saying that he knew he must pay the damage; but he afterwards justified himself by first attributing the concussion to the unavcidable consequence of Ms being driven on' by the stage-coaches, and secondly to the fright of his horse ; shewing t he fracture of the front of his cart, against *Mai his feet caw, as a proof of his ineffectual efforts to step him. In the Doctor's opinion both these excuses were without foundation. He gave the Defendant the option of taking the horse to a farrier's at New Cress ; ihr of returning him to town for proper treatment : the De fendant preferred the latter, and the horse was gent ly walled home, the Defendant ;ad the ladies walk ing too, to li;hten the animal's burthen. The wound was d-essed at the Doctor's stables, and the horse was afterwards removed to the Plaintiff's, where be died, in consequence of a mortification. The De fendant accompanied the carriage to town. Dr. . Carey asked the by.etanders for their addremell, be: come forward as witnesses, bat could not prochite their testimony. Mr. Pena, for the Defendant, first insisted, hi point of law, that this action should have been tres pass, and not case, since the Plaintiff had proved the a.-cident to have been wilful on the part of the Defendan_ He did this on the authority of the cases of Lean* v. Bray (5 Espinasse's Reports, 18), and Lotan v. Cross (2 Campbell, 464), which were both actions of trespass; and in the latter of which Lord Ellenhorough expressly held that the injury to the Plaintiff being immediate from the act (lobe by the Defendant, it was settled in the former case that trespass was the proper remedy, and that the Defend ant's imiocent, bat negligent, intentions were imma terial. Lord ELlA:newton/An desired to be shown an in stance, tu treoich case was brought Land it was decided that it might to hare been trespasa. In the case of Loom v. Crow, the owner of the chattel gratuitously permitted *nether to use it v without any hire. The chattel was, therefore, still in the owner's pos3es sloe. Mr. Asearr (for the Plaintiff) added, that here the actual possession was in Dr. Carey, as lessee under the Plaintiff ; and a reversioner could not even ' maintain trover. Lord EiLiNSOUOVGll.—Evidently not e as he has nal the possession ; but the objection would only hav, , envie to a release from the witness (Dr. Carey); and the time for that is gone by. The Defendant's Counsel then called Mr. W. Westall, theinadsdipe.pakitee, who was a spectator of the acrldegitt; and to whotb it appeared that the Defendant's horse Lad run away withiffes t _anti that he could not have avoided the weld*, .alage coaChes were racing and hallooing: 'tile witness being asked, why he refried Dr. Carerittsffddress, said. that be told him he did net think Ids evidence would be of much use to the Doctor, as he pitied the Defendant, and thought Lim not to blame. 'll4 Doctor replied, that he only wanted him to stale tbit I fact as he saw it : and then, if the Doctorbad press ed it, Mr. Westall said he would have given him his card. The Defendant also called two - more by standers, one a school-fellow of his, and the other the driver of the cart which' the Doctor's carriage passed, and who was also the Defendant's acquaint ance. These witnesses thought the Defendant's horse kad run away witit Mai. The former observ ed, ss There's a bore rin,allay;" and the latter said he thought the Doctoes ennetouia' very much to blame for not driving * do Defendant's way. , All the Witnesses. mballOted ,tbat the Defendant's_ horse stood very quietly - after* accident happened, aid that the Defendant always afteiivaitis could stop him with ease. Lord ELIMISOILOUGS charged the Jury - upon this evidence, that if they thought the Defendant had at any time joined the race of the stage-coachmen ? ale though he might have wished to stop himself vrirds 2 be would be liable to make good this in , which the Plaintiff had sustained: but' the Deft. daut's holding hard his horse was not incenilaten with Ms rating, as racers always endeavouiektp keep the perfect command of their, animal.

There appeared some attempt to charge the redeemer of the watches, who tendered the 201. and 151. per cent. interest, or a year, with 201:; but the question was not sifted to the bottom, the Plaintiff agreeing upon payment of principal and legal interest of 51. to withdraw a Juror.

The hall lodged in Mr. O'R.'s breast, and was not extracted until late on the Sunday night.

No clue has been discovered to lead to de detection of the perpetrator. Durini the alarm arising from the late horrid mur ders and numerous robberies, a lady, residing on the south-side of Lincoln's Inn-fields, employed work men to make her house particularly secure • and on the night of the day when they had completed thiir, job, her house was broken open and robbed, but the fact was not discovered till the servants got spin the morning, when it wag ascertained that It had been accomplished by splitting the iron plate of the coal cellar.

The circumstances are as tonne; :-Oti the morning of the 28th tilt the Nawaub being •on his annual hunting excursion, a report was brought in that the jungle adjoining the camp abounded with tygers and other game. Thither, accordingly, the Nawaub., Capt. Baillie, and the hunt.: ing party bent their way with all expedition.

The elephant became unruly, and Captain 1 13iillie was precipitated from the hewdah, to a coati. jltgrable distance, with great force; and with his gne in his hand.. He was very wverely bruised.

Two or three men, who %fun spirnprudent as to venture alone. into the jungle, are supp l ied to have been carried off by the, tygers, as they we're missing, and no account, heard of them. One man, 1 while cutting reeds, was seised by a ty.arr, upon which, with great presence of mind, he thrust ilia i knife into the abdomen of his assailant, «110 made I I off ' leaving the reed-cutter to make his escape. ris . .. • , . tyger was shot in the course of th e same luring by the Nawaub.

Died, on the 10th lust. at Beteherby, near Car lisle, at the advanced age of 80, Miss Margery Jackson, a maiden lady, who was for many years an inhabitant of Carlisle. Though in. possession of a fortune of more than 50,0001. her min nal expendi .ttire,. Withthe exception of libation. made to Bee ch* certainly amounted to very tittle; yet, in many respects, di& her character betray that unac countable inconsistency which often renders the hu man mind an object of erratic conjecture. If she seldom or neversacriticed to the pleasures of the ta ble; the More seductive attractions of the bottle had her regard. Her usual beverage was brandy mixed with wine: the thinner potations of modern times she considered as a proof 'of the degeneracy of the age. In this practice, however, she never lost the use • of her tongue :--this 46 tinruly member" acquir ed fresh pliancy and renovated strength, by the ap plication of her beloved Cogniac. But the missile of !feminine Vengeance was blunted by , the thunder of forensic eloquence : the talismanic influence of the law could relax the muscles even of a misanthrope, and irradiate, with a smile of satisfaction, the rigid countenance of •austei ity itself.- 1 -What is more,—it could even relax the purse-strings of her heart ; then money badlost all its charms—it even, in her estimation,. seemed to have lost its value. When she , couceibedher rigi4ts infringed, she spared no ex pence iu proseceting her atuse in the higher and.. lower Courts of Judicature.' Early prepossessed with tn favohrwhle nOtions'of 'marikind, she kept herself in- Solated from the world ; aid although possessed of a' masculine understanding, it had received no polish from education ; nor did her after habits afford any oppoetunity of correcting the big which she had un roitunately reseived: It was on money, and not on men, that she depended in case' of necessity ; = this she estOenfed the eatimiliim of her security—of her happiness—the very peseta, or protectors of her existence. Every thing which Margery Jackson p 'rformed, exhibited the features of her mind, and a true decision of character. Nobly scorning to mix with the herd of mankind (wliom she depicted as composed of a mass of villainy), and equally averse to accommodate herself to the politer part of her Spe cks by those courtly phrases which are generally adopted to smooth and facilitate the intercourse of social life, she invariably used that sort of language which, in some respects, might be said to be peculi arly her own,—but savouring much of what is com monly denominated Billingsgate rhetoric, in which she was in no iocOnsiderable degree eloquent. - 1 For many years during her residence in Carlisle, she invariably received her rents from the open casement of a window : to behold the areana contained within her castle was an honour permitted only to a favour ed few. These rents were rigidly exacted in gold : ' bank-notes she considered as so many circulating and extending manufactures as foreboding the ruin of the country. How far she was correct in entertaining those ideas, our readers will judge.— , Though apparently uninterested in those circum stances which at tinsel agitate the bulk of mankind, —yet, erhetethe Idle distinctions of blues and yet- i low: prevailed, she would, on the eve of a contested election, participate warmly in the ebullitions of party-spirit. On these occasions, she feared not to encoupter the fury of tbe mob by decorating her `Windows with party-coloured ribbons, and appear ing in a garment of the same colour ; yet while her conduct in this respect would tempt one to believe she advocated "this 'just and necessary war," as some have called it, she considered the tax-gatherer and'assenos in no ;better light than the authorised public plunderers. To say that eur heroine never did a generous action, Woulebe an injustice to her me 'beery. ough she chose rather to brave the missile . .of the mob, than irradiate her mansion, is tieleideinoration 9f any public success,—yet, when the redskins of the brave 42d regiment passed through ',this city 'on their return from Egypt, she aided for them a subscription at Carlisle by a donation of two guineas. 21/Or let it be said she was destitute of af fection. Her only and faithful doinestic, an aged 'clog,- often found re - repast on the offals *thrown out., of a neighbour's door. On these •occasions she never refused to attend her social companion in the cape" city of sentinel, to prevent any hungry and guard.; some rival from disputing the spoil. The bulk of her 'property, with fhe exception of some small lega pdes, Miss Jackson has bequeathed to Mr. Joseph Bowman, of liotclierby.
