CAIKT QV KING'S BENCH, Dm sears V. VIALS. This was an action of damages fur a malicious prose cution carried on by the defendant. a beneficed Clergy man residing at Twickenham, upon a charge of steal inzbat• ounces of beef, value one penny, aodfoor, omens of bread, value one pansy. against the present plaintiff, who was employed as a labouring gardener In the defendant's service. The fact was charted as com mitted on the 22nd of Oct. 1421. The plaintiff was in dict.d by the present defendant. Tara took place at the Middlesex Sessions next ensuing; conviction would have subjected him to transportation for acre', years, hut he was acquitted by the Jury without the slightest hesitation; and the present action was brought to recover coutpensatioo. for the injury sustained in leis person, his character, and bis mind, and the inconve-1 nietwe lad great expend—sbove 201.—which he was put to le his defence against the charge.' •••• PaTTtSON opened the proceedings rand Mr. Pnitt.tes stated the case of his client ugh - marked' ability. sod forcible elOqttence. He spoke at consider able length. He contrasted toe siteattons of the prose cutor and the defendant on the criminal trial, as well as the petty and contemptible object for which the prose cutlass was brought, compared with the heavy punish ment which mosthave attached upon the accuaed in the event of a conviction. The prosecutor was , a wealthy heoeficed.paison. living in a style of fashionable luxury and affluence, with a splendid residen c e, carriage, re tinue, and establishmitot of nine domestic servants; the defendant, a poor working gardener, endeavouring by his hard labour from day today to obtain an honest but scanty maintepanee for himself and those who depended • on him, He could compare the one only to the Dices enestioaed ig scripture, who, while 110 himself rolled in all the indulgences of splendour, luxury and profusion, grudged to the miserable Lazarus even the crumbs that felt from his table. Ile depicted the conduct of the Itev. Plosecator, ip endeavouring to prosecute the defendant far a supposed theft, w hide be himself, with all his dis position to crush and to ruin his character (the poor area', only hope for livelihood) and to procure his igno miehaas expulsion from his native country, could only venture-to estimate at the pahry . sum of two pence! Such a procedure hcconsidered as violatory to the precepts of thee Christian religion. which enjoined its professors to for-glee and not to persecute ; which it was the boulders his of this Reverend parson not only to preach to his congregation, but to exemplify by bis prac tice. • Bat he bad done the very reverse, and thus scan dalised the reputation 9f a Christian pastor ; and by a compliratieso • of malice and vengeance, sought to rain fosaurer the poor object of his persecution for crime, which, after all, proved on the fullest evideoco. to be the Refit imaginary phantom. hiyawa anfoawird utopians; the failure of his aim elation on the trial, and confirmed by . the verdict of as honest and impart ialjury, to the astonish enrol of the whole Court Were which the charge was exhibited.

The prosecutor them said, be was going to take a drive that day over to Camberwell, and asked what was, his aunt's name and residence, as be would call and.inquire of her; but the defendant then refused .to toll him her name, and this circumstance so con firmed the prosecutor's suspicions, that he determined to prose cute the defendant. It appeared, however, on the criminal trial, as on the evidence on the action cause this day, from the testi mony of a Mrs. Baldwin, seek to the prosecutor at the :throe, that he applied to her to go into ber larder, of which she always kept the key; and in her presence compared the slice of beef belled brought from the tool house with the sound from which he supposed it to have • been cut, and that it appeared in every respect quite di& forest, and could cot have been part of the prosecutor's round of beef dressed on the preceding day, which she uld'bim; and the proof winally failed with regard to this slice of bread. And the root of the prisoner from Ciroberwell, and two other witnesses, proved that this, beef aed bread were given him by his aunt on Sunday, the day preceding this discovery; and that he bad placed them in the drawer, the usual depository of pro wsons for his dinner, The indictment, therefore, having failevton trial, the present action w as institute d the Reverend prosecutor. • The case for the plaintiff being closed, 'The SOLKITOR-GENZRAL, fur the defendant, media ery able and feeling address to the Jury.

He felt that it was the duty of his Learned Friend to use his best seal and talents for the cause of Ibis client, but he feared he had inadvertently lent him self withiteo much confidence to the instructions of thou ceneerned fur his clieht ind on that confidence he had greitly Misrepresented 'in his statement what was, in troth' awl justice, the real diameter of the defendant, wPielt was, in all respect*, the very reverse of that stated brhls Learned Friend.

He was firmly convinced that he had dl covered an instance of the fraudulent purloining in the locideat to which the trial, and this adios, mainly alluded, and he acted from a sense of dilly in example to others. If he verily believed the guilt of the plaintiff, the amount of the theft signified nothing—and be was justified in prosecutiog without any just pretence that malice was his motive. Unless, therefore, the Jerry' were quite convinced (rein the evidence, that the prose cution, was instigated by malicious motives, they could not find for the present plaintiff; for such a verdict would justify every man, promoted fora crime, however guilty, if he only escaped conviction shrotigh any defect: of evidence, or any doubt of a Jury, to bring an action ' for damages against the rosecotor ; in which ease there would be an end of all c?iiniaal prosectitions.
