Swinge Wore LORD ELLTNIKHLOUGD. ASSAULT. NEWTON $O. TALBOT. This was as anion for an assault intended to have been committed, which did not take place. The Plaintiff and Defendant were anchommiths, employed in the service of a Mr. Whates, a respec table person of the same trade, at Wapping. It ap peared on evidence, that the Defendant, in tonse quence of a previous quarrel at a public-house, came into the shop where the Plaintiff was working, on the 15th of last month, when an altercation en sued, w Lich the bye-standers, in vain, endeavoured to prevent. ' The enraged cyclop seized an enor mous Clinker, weighing no less than 4 2.01 b. which he threw with irresistible force at the head of the Plain tiff ; the same, however, passed within a short dis tance of its obje&, without doing the least injury. The Defendant, after the exploit, was turned out of the shop, muttering, as he went, his resolution to separate the Plaintiff's head from his body, when he again met him. Mr. GA BROW said, there would be no end to frivolous law suits, if the Jury countenanced such as the present ; and he conceived that Mr. Whates was highly reprehensible for making his men bring ations of such a paltry nature as the present. He described the affair to be the effed of a drunken dis turbance, and trusted the Jury would see how far damages ought to be given. Lord Et LEN BON OVG ti stated, that the adion was brought where an injury had not been sustained; such damages ought therefore to be given as should make each party pay their own costs. The Jury gave one farthing damages, and one farthing costs. WIIATES It. RIPPENEIAM. This was an aaion of trespass, for breaking into the house and work-shop of the Plaintiff, an anchor smith at Wapping, and preventing a number of men, who were at work upon an anchor, from finishing the same, in consequence of which an in jury was sustained. Mr. PARK said, this case was different from the East ; the Plaintiff was indeed the master of the mew who were engaged in the last cause, but he had not, as Mr. Gatrow stated, urged the paltry aftion into that Court ; the assertion arose from the ,sagacity of his Learned Friend, who knew he should become Counsel against the Plaintiff, and had there fore spoken in order to prejudice Mr. Whates in the opinion of the Jury. Mr. Erskine had now become Counsel for the Defendant; he would, however, not fail to apply Mr. Erskine's description of the Plaintiff in the pre sent case; namely, that he was a respeaable anchor smith at Wapping ; the Defendant was an Attor ney, by whose =ulna the Plaintiff had been per plexed and harassed almost beyond credit. The shop then occupied by his client, it seemed, had been claimed by a Mr. Laurence, who made appli cation to Mr. Rippenham to ejeet him ; but as the Plaintiff had been an possession a considerable time, it was found necessary to serve no less than five writs of right, in order to turn him out, the last of which the Plaintiff negleaed to enter his appearance to, until the morning after the regular time; the Defendant immediately issued out another process, from the Common Pleas, which was set aside by that Court on the grounds that the conduct of the Attorney had been extremely improper. On the 7th of May the Plaintiff entered his appear ance, and on the 12th the Defendant came into the shop of Mr. Whates ; the men were then at work on the anchor of a ship that was to sail the next morn ing ; the fire was ordered to be put out, and the workmen were told, when they remonstrated, that they should not work there any longer. The place was accordingly locked up, and the 'Plaintiff turned out with his family, and the consequence was, the latter lost the sale of the anchor, which remained untold for eight months after. The Learned Coun sel concluded with observing, that be had no doubt but the Jury would give those damages which the Plaintiff was entitled to.—The evidence called 'n behalf of the Plaintiff proved the fads already stated. Mr. Eassint contended that the Defendant had only done his duty as an Attorney, by going with the officer to execute the writ of right; the latter had not committed a trespass, nor had he behaved mall ciou.ly. Lord ELttoseitoncit said, the question the Jury had to decide upon, was the damages the Plaintiff was entitled to from the loss sustained by the stoppage of the anchor. He observed, that ma lice, with respell to the Defendant's condua, was not to be considered ; they would only give such damages as would compensate for the loss sus. tained. The Jury, after some deliberation, gave a verdift for the Plaintiff.—Damages Several other causes were tried, but none of suf fic:e.it importazce to detail. A low days ago two soldiers called at a public house between Sedbcrgh and Kirkby-Stephen, and ordere,l son.o ale. It was in the afternoon, and as they liked their beverage, they drank very heartily until the evening, when they desired to see the land lord. —He attr,nded them.--They informed him that they were sent to apprehend a deserter, who was concealed at a short distance from thence ; that they bad waited on Justice —, (a neighbouring Ma gistrate) who had recommended them to his house and assured them that he (the landlord) would at': ford them every assistance in his power.—Honest Becalm declared his readiness to serve them, and asked bow he could do it ? " Very easily ;" replied the men. " You have only to furnish us with other cloaths • we, will leave our regimental: here ; and, in less titan an hour, we shall have our prisoner under your ruof; stay with you over night, and march him to his regiment to-morrow." - -The landlord (rejoiced at the idea of such goodcustomers prolong ing their visit) instantly produced his Sunday's coat and waistcoat, and also those of his ion, in which the two military men were speedily arrayed, and, Inv- their scarlet-vestments (of maparsice) they sal -IW= - -forth to each the deverter.—How they succeeded is not known • but the landlord, in a few hours, was convinced that he had easigit a brace of Twion. „ . . .

Orders came down this day for the 9th regiment of foot quar tered here and at Dock, and the £Bth regiment in Dock barracks (so distinguished on the 2lst of March in Egypt) to hold themselves in readiness to march for Woodbury Camp, with the North and South Devon regiments of Militia, from Mill Bay and Frankfort barracks.
