The (mention to he tried was, whether the 'daintier 'had Pone abroad fratulalentle and covinously with intent to prevent the ouriserre. This is a very unusual form of action : the way to which as oatiowyw is usually reversed being for the cities to appear in Ow* and tender the debt due to the person who Its used the outlawry, and all his costs, when the Court reverses the outlawry as a matter of course. The writ for the re. venal of the outlawry which had been rowed to in this instance by the phdatiff is a writ of right, to which the subject is entitled. strieo fare, and its object is, to obtain a reversal of the outlawry ithout being put to the preliminary condition of paying the debt endemics. The defendant having pleaded that the plaintiffhad sb o !Med himself fraudulently and ominously, ttc. the issue lay upon the defendant. Mr. Sus/weer acrnrdiagly addressed the Jury in the first in. stutter. Houk! that the defendant, Mr. Wagstaff; was the uncle of Mr. Bryan. He had been in the habit of lending sums of money to Me planniF, which he had not repaid. Mr. Wagstaff at length berm to press his claims, and his nephew met his urgent applica tions by repeated promisee, which were as repeatedly broken. He three:mini to put the law in force, and was met with more earnest promisee, which, like their predecessors, when the appointed day of payment came, were broken. He oat finally compelled to give his Solicitor instructions to proceed against his nephew, Mr. Bryan. A wrstiese ieued. 31r. Bryan, who lived at Radford, near Not tMgham, inure ately forsook his usual haunts, kept close, and in ' a shine time diesrpeered. His goods were shortly after sold, and it whit arteywnsfft found that he had gone to St. Omer, in France. This took place in September. 12122. As Mr. Bryan resided out of the halts 4 , f the town and county of Nottingham, though he was in tqe hnhet eri dolly visiting Nottingham anti spending much of his time there, a fesfslame writ issued against.him, from the expectation that he would be arrested in Noaingluun. When it was found that be bed gone to Fraree, ;truces. of outlawry was commenced against fore an original writ was sued out, an clias and apiaries, on which to found the cutlawry, tested the 17th o: November, a month alter Ise bed left this enuatry. After the outlawry was completed an tequieition earelsehl en his property, which had, in consequence of the entiuniy, *wine forfeit to the Crown. Among his other ceopety was nn annuity of 3001., which he had expected to en -7 mote:ly in Franse, but which, by these proceedinge, fell to the t.'roan, awl, on petition to the Crown by Mr. Wagstaff, liable to his claim, on Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan, who, but for this circum stance, wculd in all probability never have returned to this country, wee thus deprived of his resources and compelled to revisit Eng. land. He came over, and remained bssog. for a few days, till he had sworn the affidavit to arrest Messrs. Marriott and Ely. the payers cf his annuity. They pleaded in bar the outlawry, Red put an end to his action. Mr. Bryan, thus baffled, bad no other resource bnt to try to wars,: his outlawry, and instead of doing it to the Ora! way, by appearing in Court and paying the debt and coats, he had rooted to the unnsual form of proceeding by action. .Mr. Hopkinson, 'homey for Me Wagstaff in the original action, a'i Mr. Fucksbew, the officer, were called to prove the circum.

Me. Roger Manners being called to prove that Mr. Bryan was* now in France, Mr. CAMPBELL examined hitn at considerable length, to elicit from him facts to show that the causes which led 11r. Bryan fibroid were not a desire to evade the outlawry, but a narrow in. cene. and a desire of living more cheaply, and of being enabled thereby to save funds for meeting the claims of his creditors ; and also that 14,.

CAMPBELL called no venture but replied at considerable ter-Vb. contending, in a very ingenious speech, that to sustain this aztioe toe defendant most show that her.

He observed that it was a practice frequently resorted to by persona in cases of this kind, to endeavour to east an impttanon of fraud on the defendants, in order to screen themselves from Itivrained by their own mismanagement . For this purpose ;stakes whichmight result from parolcansertions were peculiarly favourable. It Was this that the error had occurred in respect to the statement ettrihnted to his client of receiving 2001. per month over the bar for excisable commodities, Other articles. such as ginger beer, &c. were to be included in the fetreatien of that a.m. It would, how. ever, be proved time the representations made by the deienoan: were correct, and that the value or the business was really of the amount which he had sta'cil. Front the nature of the business, the Learned ' Sergeant argued, that the testimony given by the witnesses for the plaintiff was not very satisfactory. He woull not merely rest on sech probability, hut would cal gentlemen of information on the subject to rebut the imputation which bad been flung on his client, and to demonstrate that the premises and business were, at the time of the transfer, of the full value asserted by the defendant. John Henshaw, examined by Mr. Sergeant BOSANQVET—Is Dim of defendant; is an appraiser. Tie buaine of the Crown and Anchor was carried on by his brother And xi-ter. Be was present at the conversation between plaintift'and defendant. Plaintiff asked hit rather, " Do you do 2001. per month ?" The answer was " No." Defendant on further inquiry answered, that he could not positively say that he did 150/. His father gave 7001. for the house; the re pairs were abut 1001. Trade was suspended during the time of repair, viz. six weeks. The first floor let fir 60/. ayear as lodg ing", and is worth so touch.

Her father knew she kept the account book, which was copied from a slate. Most entries were in her hand. _ Re.examined—Proved that ginger-beer was a lucrative article. a Juror—The iceman book contained the returns on ginger. beer and soda water, as well as on other article. James Renshaw corroborated the evidence of the former witness (his sister), and added that quantities of spirits were brought from the docks. Culis-examined—Beeps a public-house. The account book con tains all the profits over the counter. Re-examined—The spirits sold at the tap were equally profitable to his father as those sold at the bar. Henry Breath, clerk to Smith and Co. whose house supplied Hen•haw with gin, read from an account that 1503 g►llons of Bri tish gin were supplied within the time he had the house. Cross-examined—Did not know that any spirits were sent from the Crown and Anchor to the Islington house. Titterton, an exciseman, was called up to prove that quanti ties of spirits were permitted to llenshaw, to a greater amount than stated in plaintiff's evidence, but his testimony did not alter the re sult of that of the former excise officer called for plaintiff. Witnesses were called to prove that they considered the Crown and Anchor worth the money paid for it by plaintiff, even if it re turned only 150/. per month. This was the defendant's case._ 31r. Servant SPANICIE, in reply, observed that the tap was ex. cluded from the 2001. a month. Was it then true that the other branch of the business was worth what the defendant alleged ? The contradictions urged by the Learned Counsel and witnesses at the other side did not impeach the case which he had submitted to the Jury. The LOID Cam JUSTICE summed until.: evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages CAI. The trial lasted till half-past six o'clock. ,_ CONSTRUCTION OF THE COURT. The tinediCy of iieiring;hichi;expetTencc;l in this Court has hem frequently the subject of animadversion. This defect having been very ob►ious during the course of this day's proceedings, on several occasions in which the witnesses were totally inaudible in the delivery of their testimony, the Lord Chief Justice was induced to recur to the subject. His Lordship, in the presence of Mr. Mot tague, the city architect, who had been sent for, observed, that he was frequently obliged to repeat important expressions of witnesses, for the information of the Jury, to whom they would otherwise have been lost. This was a matter of constant and unpleasant occurrence, and required correction. Persona who came into the witness•box were generally accustomed to speak in the ordinary mode of conversation; hut to reach the ears of the Jury in this Court, it was indispensable that witnesses should raise their voice to a pitch much above the common level. The purposes of justice rendered it necessary that the evil should be rectified. The Jury concurred in his Lordship's statement, and added that the greatest stretch of attention was frequently unavailing to enable them to catch the worth, or meaning, of the witnesses. 31r. Montague having received auricular proof that this serious inconvenience did exist, assured the Lnrd Chief Justice that he would take care that an adequate remedy should be supplied as soon as possible. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Tit CRIDAY, DEC. 15. The Commissioners have had frequent cause to complain of t he neglect of some of the attorney]; and their clerks, in respect to their clients, when they come to be heard on their petitions. Yesterday the Court reqoestel an explanation relative to an In solvent's schedule then under examination, but the attorney not being present, the case was necessarily postponed. The Chief Commissioner observed, that the Court having fee. quently remonstrated in vain against the culpable neglect of some of its officers, they would have recourse to measures of a iummary nature, and in all cues where it happened that the discharge of an insolvent was delayed through the negligence of the attorney, he should pay all costs consequent thereon ; for sttch conduct not only berayed an improper feeling toward their unfortunate client, but it evir.cttd a marked disrespect towards the Cour:. One of the other Commissioners said that it would not be amine to suspend, or strike from the rolls of the Court, every attorney who was guilty of a gross dereliction of his duty. WINTER HOME CIRCUIT. SURREY ASSIZES, KINGSTON, Dsc.ls. The Aseires for this county ended this afternoon, about three o'clock. None of tl:e capital convicts ware left fur execution. Robert Veitch and In/liens Lovell were indicted for a burglary and robbery in the dwelling-house of Elias Simmons, in the night of the 24th November, at St. Cieorge's, Southwark. Mr. THESSIGER conducted the prosecution. The prOSOCUrOf is a broker, living in the London-road. On the 20ili November the prisoner Veitch, a youth of sixteen, who had been in his service, absconded with two pounds with which he had been sent nut to pay a debt. In the course of the night of the 24th November the prosecutor had been disturbed twice with strange noises, acd when he got up at seven o'clock, he found that his house had been broken open, and his desk in the parlour robbed of a gale of gold earrings. seven sovereigns, is-4 other property. Ile also discovered that hs small-clothes, which lay by his bedside, bad been rifled of about in silver. In the shop he found a hat, pair of trousers, a handkerchief. and a pair of stockings, which he immediately recognised as part of Veitet's wearing apparel, and which had been substituted for similar ankles taken away. The prisoner Veiteb was apprehended in the night of the 30th Nov., in the very set of commenting a burglary in the adjoinining house, oecJpio.l by a widow named Holmes. On his person there were round several duplicates for some of the solos property. The pri. sOlier Lovell was apprehended on the SAM.e morning, when ice mine to the watch-house to inquire atter Veitch, a i d bim was found a trocsebknife, w hich was one of the articles stolen. The prisoners said nothing in their defence. The Learned Ju DOE thought die ease against Lovell too light for conviction, but Vanes was found Geaty of grand larceny. Vette* was again indicted for the burglary in Mrs. Holmes's house. It appeased that Mrs. Holmes being dirtinbed in the night, she got up cid found the prisoner in her room. She seised and held him until her cries for help brought a next doer neigh boor to her assistance, who secured the prisoner with a pistol in his hand, which he had brnught from a lower apartment Ile had en tered the 11041:c by breaking the bolt °FS back door.

POLICE. GUILDHALL. George Lomas, who has been in custody :.bout a fortnight, nn suspicion of embezzling monies which came into his hands as col. lecting clerk to Blesses. Pontifex, the coppersmiths, in Shoe-lane, was brought up for final examination before Mr. Alderman Luc,sa. The prisoner had been remanded from time to time at the request of his own solicitor, to give him an opportunity of informing his friends in thecountry, who were understood to be highly respectable, of thesituation in which he was placed, and nothing beyond the mere nature of the charge against hint, without any particulars, was taken in evidence as a ground for his detention. At his last examination, Mr. Pon titer, the solicitor, brother to the prosecutors, expressed their desire to have the prisoner punished in the most lenient manner, and handed to the Magistrate the Act 4 Geo. IV, cap. 34., to en large the powers ofJus'ices to determine complaints between 'nes ters and servants, which, he submitted, might be construed to reach this case. The statute enacts, that any labourer, or other person, who Minn contract to serve any person or persons whom soever, in any manner, and shall neglect to fulfil the same, or be guilty of any other misconduct or misdemeanor in tho execution thereof, or respecting the Fame, may be committed to hard labour for any time not exceeding three months. Mr. Beresford, the Chief Clerk, felt some difficulty about this novel application of the statute—well knowing that there was an old Act, unfortunately in anything but a state of desuetude ' by which a male servant embezzling money, received on account of his employer, was declared to be guilty of felony, and punishable with 14 years' transportation. The prisoner was accordingly remanded until yesterday, when 31r. HUMPHREYS, for the prisoner, intimated that he under stood the prosecutors were willing to allow the young titan to be dealt with under the Sth Geo. IV.; and on the part of the prisoner he would consent to any conviction under it that the worthy Alder man should be pleased to make. Mr. Alderman Lugs.-1 know nothing of the circumstance yet. Before I convict him of misconduct, some specific act of mis conduct must be proved. Mr. Pontifez replied he would prove a misapplication of money, and called a witness into the box for that purpose. Mr. Humphreys, however. very cautiously interposed, and at once offered to confess or suffer anything under this Act. He wool,' admit his client entered into a contract, and that he had been guilty of misconduct under it. These admissions were then recorded, and the prisoner was sent to the !louse of Correction for three months. BOW-STREET. Among the persons brought from the watchhouses yesterday, on charges of various kinds, was a gentleman named Gwynne, who stood accused of having been riotous and disorderly at Drury-lane Theatre, on Wednesday night, and having also assaulted one of the constables in the ezecuuonof his duty. It appeared that towards the close of the performances on that evening a row took place among the frail ones in the saloon, which the constables (Nettleton and Bond). aided by the boxkeepers, had much difficulty in quelling. The calm which their authority pro duced was of short duration, fur at the close of the last piece the quarrelling recon3menceil, and two of the belligerent parties, re gardless of the damage that their fair faces or their gaudy apparel might sustain in the conflict, set-to for a regular fight. The offi cers, as soon as they could get through the crowd by which the combatants were surrounded, and who, by their cheering and laughter, seemed highly to enjoy the delicate exhibition, put a stop to the fight, and were conducting the two principal delinquents from the saloon, in order to take them to a watchhouse, when they were attacked by 3 great number of persona, male and female, who assaulted them with great violence, and endeavoured to rescue the girls from their custody. Nettleton receited a blow on the eye which brought him to the ground, and while prostrate he was kicked severely in the ribs. The officers, however, were finally successful in securing the girls, and the defendant was also taken to the watchhouse, as having been one of the most active of the ma dents. ...... Nettleton, who had a terrible black eye, swore that the defendant was very active in the attack upon him and Bond, and that he struck htm. lie caul(' not say it was the tleleaidant who gave him the blow on the eye, but he certainly was one of those who struck him. _ . This statement was confirmed by Bond and a box keeper. Sir R. BIRKIE said he thought such conduct extraordinary from gentleman of the defendant's appearance, and asked him if he resided in London ? Mr. 0 wynne replied, that he was only a temporary sojourner in London ; his residence was in %i'alcs. Sir R. WILKIE—And Far, Sir, may I ask who and what you are ?—1 am a gentleman, bit, and a Magistrate for Carmarthen. shire. in which county I reside. Sir IL Btnxit —A Magistrate! Well, Sir, I shall be glad to hear your explanation of this matter. Mr. Owynne—Why really I hardly know what to say to it. I hare no recollection whatever of having assaulted the officer, and I think lie must be mistaken : I should be one of the last men in the world willingly to break Cie peace; and I think he must be mistaken. . . Sir R. Bumte—As n Al igisttatc you ought certainly to he one of the last to break the peace. The officer has sworn positively to the assault, sod you must find bail to answar the chargo at the Ses►ions. ..... Mr. Gwynne gave bail and vas liberated. The two girls who had been fighting were ordered to find bail to keep the peace; and being unprovideJ with sureties, they were locked up, in all their finery, in one of the iron rooms attached to the office. _ . An Irish gentleman, named Doelan, was brought up in cus tody from a watchhouse, charged by Mr. Keeley, brother to the clever comic uctor of that name, with an assault of rather an aggravated kind. Mr. Keeley. who, like his brother, is not of the tallest, on Wed nesday night had crossed from Covent-garden Theatre, and was malting las way quietly and thoughtfully through Broad -court, when he was suddenly seized from behind by the defendant': who, to his no small surprise. exclaimed. " You d—d little rascal, you have ptigeed my umbrella; give it me back, or I will play the devil with yots." Mr. Keeley ausesuilicieridy acquainted with mo dern slang to know what the term " pigged' meant, and he of course warmly repelled the 'accusation ; but the defendant persisted in the charge, and push.td and nailed him about so violently as to tear and otherwise damage his coot very considerably. Mr. Keeley had his own umbrella in his hand ; and finding it necessary to pro tect himself, he gave it to two .• gentlemen" who were standiag by, and then called lustily for the watch, to whom he gave the de fendant in charge. In the confusion, the " gentlemen' walked oft' with poor Mr. Keeley's umbrella, and were seen no tome.

Earegge zests; ------te7daYilson;;;l;;c. a young man, very fashionably attired, was brought before Mr. CONANT, the sit. ring 513gin.rate, charged with having embezzled several sums of money, the property of his masters, Messrs. Sims. Pope, and Co. linen.drapets, No. 263, High Holborn. Mr. Pope deposed,that in the summer he carried on business at Kennington, under the firm of Buckingham and Co., an el he sent his brother and the prisoner, who is his apprentice, to conduct it ; and that there might be no temptation, he allowed the prisoner double the sum for pocket-money that he allowed his brothers. In the month of October lie found it necessary to discontinue the bu siness at Kennington ; and, in consequence, he removed his stock to Holborn ; he then sent the prisoner to the various customers to collect the accounts, and he had been employed until Wednesday. when, finding that the accounts were not satisfactory, he examined the books, and found that various persons had not settled. Ho then resolved to apply himself : the first customer on whom he called, which was Mrs. Kelsie, showed him the receipt which the prisoner had given, and from which it appeared that he had been paid ever since the 25th of October ; and this he found, on going to the other persons, to be general. On his coming home he de. sired the prisoner to attend him, and on his producing the books he said, Sir, it is not ail right, for I have received some of the money, and hare spent it." On investigating the hooks he found that the prisoner hail, one day with another, embezzled about 18s. He could, if it were necessary, bring 50 cages against him. Mrs. Kelsie deposed, th,at the prisoner came to her house in the month of October, when she paid him her bill, which was 21. n. lOd. Ile had since then called on her, when he said. " Mrs. Kelsie. for God's sake do not say anything about your having paid me, for I hare spent the money." The prisoner, in his defence, said that if Mr. Pope would look over his books, and sum up the money which he had paid him, he would discover that lie had not been robbed of any of it. Mr. CONANT observed that such a statement must be false, and, if he could make a Jury believe him, he shonid have no objection, but, as the case now stood, he should commit him for the offence. POLVGA7rV.—Josep 3 / 4 Mercha,, alias Mitchell, apparently about 36 years of age. was brought before Mr. Conant, by Smith , one of the constables of St. James's parish, on a charge of having deserted hhi wife and child, thereby causing them to become charge able to St. George's parish, but which offence was loot iu a charge of polygamy. Mr. Gist, the assistant overseer to St. George's, deposed that the prisoner hail formerly lived as waiter at the Old White Horse cof fee-house, in Piccadilly, by which circumstance he became a pa rishioner. In the month of July last he deserted his wife, which occasioned her and the child to become chargeable to them, and there was a warrant out for his apprehension. Mr. CONANT, who seemed not to have been aware of any other charge, asked the prisoner what he had to say to the accusation? "Oh !" replied Merchan, with considerable indifference, and apparently quite unprepared for what was coming. " I must car. teinly say that I left my wife and child because I was out of em. ploy, eel still am." Mr. Gist here desired a person to come forward, when a female about the prisoner's age came to the table, and Gist stated that he believed Smith had a charge of rather a serious nature to make. Smith than deposed that on Wednesday night Mr. Young. a tailor, who resided in Marshall.street, came to him, anti said that 1 he wanted him to take a charge. He then accompanied Mr.Yonng, who infuriated him that had just seen lilerchan, who owed him 5/. for some clothes, parsing down Coventry-street in a chaise with a young lady ; and knowing him to have two wives living whom he had deserted, he suspected that there was something wrong , and this induced hint to follow the chaise. when he sow the prisoner end the young lady get out, and go to a shop in Cranbourn. street. After remaining there a few minutes, they got into the chaise and proceeded to an eminent solicitor's in Lincoln's Inn. 31r. Voung went into the office and inquired for Mr. Merchan, but the clerks replied that they knew no midi ti gentleman, when Mr. Young replied that he had seen Mr. Merchan enter into the office about halt an hour previous. There was, repPsil a clerk, a gentle. man of the name of Mitchell came in with a lady. Oh ! that is the person, replied Mr. Young. When Mr. Mitchell was called out into the outer Mike. How do you do lilr.Merchan said Mr. Young The prisoner directly replied, Oh ! I will come out and speak to yon, when, on coming into the street, Mr. Young gave him into custody. After ho had secured the prisoner, he went back to the solicitor's office, and from the information he there received, he learned that the prisoner had come to town respecting some trans. actions in money, when he stated that to his knowledge the prisoner was married, and that he had two wives living. Well, replied the clerk, if that Is the case, I can only say that he has now his third wife, to whom he lila been married only a few dam and the lady's family is not enly reepectahle. but a very wealthy one. Mr. Gist here handed to the Magistrate the certificates of the two former (marriages. The first one appears to hove taken place at Oxford, where the prisoner was married to Charlotte Norgrove 10th Dec. 1810; and the second proved him to have been married to Eliza Painter at Marylebons church, the 24th of June MI Mr. CONANT—This is a most disgraceful case. have you any objection to state who is this young lady, or her friends 1' Merchan—l shall not say a word upon the subject. Mr. CONANT—WeII then, we must endeavour to discover who they are, and to have the necessary evidence; you must be re mended. The prisoner's first wire, who was in the office, appeared very much affected a: the charge which was thus brought against her husband. WOILSH IP-STREET. ARREST OF PERKINS, alias WELCH.—Yesterday, just as the business of the office was about to close. a person, against whom a warrant was issued some days since in the name of Hutton Perkins, was placed at the bar by Attileld, one of the officers.

Cheapaide. In the course of the nvestigation it appeared that Atkinson had ordered the goods to he sent in to the firm of Welch and Co.; and that the tradespeople, 'on ceiling at the house, 7R. Queen-street, were introduced to a per son, sometimes as Mr. Perkins, and at others as 51r. %Welch, until at length the house in Queen-street was dosed against the creditors, and the key was afterwards enclosed to the landlord in a letter, signed " Perkins." Under these circumstances, a warrant was is. sued against Perkins, who was now placed at the bar. Mr. BENETT haring recapitulated the substance of the charges against the prisoner, informed him that Atkinson's examination was to be resumed on Monday next, at which time his case also might be fully heard. The prisoner, who is of very gentlemanly appearance, seemingly between thirty and forty years of age, bowed respectfully to the Magistrate, and was removed from the bar.
