1~ t . lIONE CIRCUIT. LAW INTELLIGENCE. MAT Ot OBANCEELV, 841'11)213AT, MA.acri 26. REAL DEALMONTE MINES. atettes L. TAYLOIt AND 0: HESS. Mt. SZADWELL resumed his argument against the motion and SUrfOrt of the demurrc•r. Ile adverted to the fifty shares which ?Ur Kinder ought to have sent out to Mexico, and denied that elr. Tesler had ieterded to appropriate them to himself. Iha I.OlltD CHAIICiLLOIt said, there being no answer open affidavit, it might turn out that the Bottum% Mining Company was all moonshine; but if it was a distinct Association, then it ought to LO before the Court. In the eau of the Fee and Marine Inset- Luxe Company, lately before the Court, there could be no doubt that the saute individuals aright form a new Company it they is use. There was one Gentleman, a partner in the old Company, wise was not in the new (and for this purpose one was as good as a tatnesand), so that the Ditecters of both Companies ought ta be parties to the suit. Mr.' Sleet/WELL cited seven' Cates, to show that it was hives sib'e for the Court to decree against parties not named in the record, and who might perhaps be enabled te make out a we ten times limonite? than Mr. Taylor's. Mt. SteDEN argued on the same side with Mr. Shedwell, corn 'memo.: on the various allegations in the Bill, anti contended that tee plaintiff had not brought himself within any or the rules of the Court, which were rot to be broken down for his ACCOID. *sedation. The whole dispute between the parties ITOSE from the detertien, by elf. Kinder, of the fifty shares that were to be sent to Mexico, and which he had retained in vieletinn of good t..eh when the prise had risen in the market. lie could not help se e ing that a more disitonotrrable act between man anti man could yob be awed. Tre teem) Ousel:Leese said, that this care originally sp ruce Li tere him in the shape of a mu:ion fee an Melt:tenon, on which both pieties had been pretty fully here e. Stveral points bee been raised for his consideration, but nacre was one among them with which he had nothing to do. That point related to the enrage made by the effendents against the plaintiff, that he had fraadulently possessed hunself of fifty shares more than lie was justly enn Jd to. Now, in the present form of the case, that subject of complaint ought to have been brought before him. In a motion Inc an injunction to restrain a particular set of persons from selling the !harm which they had already possessed, he had nothing to do with an inquiry whether another person possessed more than was originally agreed upon. That was a matter at present resting cntinly with the parties themselves—a Judge had nothing to do with ft; his office was to adjudge what were the tights of those individuals against whom the injunction 11,10 preyed., and not to determine on the rights of other persons, or en their actions, unless those actions furnished a bar to the claim which they trade in equity for relief. He should therefore dismiss Witt his mind all that had been said regarding the first or the Litt of these fi fty shares in the Real del Monte or in the Balanos mints.. The . question on the demurrer and that on the motion er an injunc tion differed materially from each other, and were obe viewed in a very different light. The question on the demurrer was a mere questidn of form, and all the facts stated on the record must, in the argument on the demurrer, be taken to be strictly and literally true, although no one of them was capable of proof, and indeed although they might be contrary to the fact; tig the judgment on demurrer did not determine what the facts were ; but, assuming certain facts, it determined what was the hew which related to them. If the law of the case should ultimately bs decided to be in favour of the defendants, there was an end of tee motion for an injunction. But the latter was to be treated and discussed in a manner very different from the question on the de. eirdner. In determining the motion for an injunction. it would be necessary to discuss and ascertain which were the reel facts of the case with reference to both the parties concerned, and on these facts bang truly ascertained, the injunction could be granted or refused. Here he should take the opportunity of saying, that he should cer tairly dismiss from his mind the question as to the legality of the undertaking . ; but perhaps he owed it to tile public, who had been eeseedingly interested hy the discussion of questions relating to the legality of this anti of other Companies proceeding on the same peinciples, to say, that whether these undertakings should prove to be legal or not, there were many good and virtuous men who had vested, perhaps ireprodently, their property in them; and that it Wowed not neettasarily follow because they were not legal, that they were therefore immoral; or that they cast nothing but disgrace up= their projectors. When such men as he had mentioned had embarked in these schemes, they hid done so, perhaps, in consc spienee of (owning a hasty and erroneous judgment, hut certainly with no intention of committing a public fraud. There might be many Companies which were nuisances under the common law, and which might not be nuisances within the Statute, or subject to the penalties which that Statute imposed. He knew not what was to be said on that part of the case, because any declara tion of his might affect so many of his hlsjesty's subjects, with some ol whom he was acquainted ; but this he well knew, that both pub lie mischief and prisate inconvenience and misery might arise from flesh undertakings. The case of this Company, he knew, was dis tinguishable from a great many others. " There is a rumour abrosd," said his Lordship, " but whether there be any truth in it, one way or the other, I will cot pretend to say, that there are per sons forming Companies who never mean to remain members of learn, but who are sending out into the world prospectuses declar ing the immense riches which msy be obtained, and great benefits which may result, from the undertakings—l say, it is rumoured there are such persons who thus raise large sums of money upon the treadulity, the avarice, aril love of gain of the public. It as for those who understand the law better than I do, to consider whether it is that such practices should pass unindicted—to consider whether persons thus entering Into a conspiracy to defraud the public cannot be proceeded against by indictment. lam not doing here as a Cri minal Judge, but I humbly think that individuals would do well to consider the course they are now pursuing. At least this warning may have this good effect, of preventing other people from entering into such engagements." His Lordship then stated, that how far the law of nuisances applied to the present case was too important a 'question to be now decided ; and he hesitated not to say, that he should not be acting according to it just sense of his duty if lee vdntured to declare any opinion at the present moment. There were, however, other points in this case, which he should bare no paint difficulty in now deciding, if long experience had not taught bins the necessity of reading these bills, affidavits, and demurrers with great attention. It was for that reason, upon this view of the are, he would not give his judgment until Tuesday morning. Ms Lordship then took a short view of the facts of the case, particu larly with relation to the contract entered into between Mr. Taylor and Captain Vetch. It apreared to his Lordship that Mr. Taylor had made out a strong ease upon this nine That gentleman had worn in his affidavit, that Captain Vetch had made the contract in Fels behalf, admitting (and the admission did him some credit) that he bad the purpose of giving the shares to the Proprietors of this Company. Mr. Kinder, however, was only to hare twenty-oneof thrhe shares; and if it were true that the contract was Mr. Taylor's ti..e latter had a perfect right to make that stipulation. With re ferenoe to the point, that the new Company were trustees for the pleintiff, if that were made out, then hie Kinder's claim ought to le:bowed ; but if there was re such trusteeship, then, according ta.eli the law he had met " picked up," nothing could prevent the • hole body .of the Real del Monte Mining Company saying to 11Ir. Kinder, " We will form another Company by ourselves, and you ezdi bare nothing to do with it."- If this view of the case should ithintately turn out to he right. it would then render it unneees eirry to enter into the many other considerations which presented eiemaelves—considerations of expediency and necessity he would ...41 - then because when Le looked at the many objections arising with respect to parties, and to those of dissolving a partnership Wend by so many express covenants, lie could net help contem. phitielk the great difficulties winch the plaintiff had to surmount; and could not avoid considering the inexpediency . of giving any decided opinicin. if be were correct in his first opinion . '• I have oOserired,' said his Lordship in conclusion, " that one person has Aso been taken to task for never deciding more than is necessary. 11 that pewits means myself—if it is myself who am aimed at, I as that when I shall retire from my judicial life, 1 shall at least take with me this consideration, that I have done less harm , by avoiditig decisions not necessary to be given, than if I had fully de reared my opinion. Those who quarrel with Judges should know that, it is far better to leave those decisions which are unnecessary to beaters at the time, until necessity calla for them. It is the better to take thisiourse than to anticipate decisions which may in future tunes tie found necessary to be pronounced." His Lordship pre. Weed io give hilt fired opinion .on Tuesday morning. ScSSEX ASSIZIM, Illoa;if AY, ESIDAY, MAZCIII 25. " THE MURDER AT BEXHILL. GeorgeDas and Edward Dcw,brothets, the one aged 21, and the other 110, were indicted for tLe wilful murder of Thomas Sawyer. a youth - of 19, at Bexhill, on the Cfith December last. The indict ment tontained several counts, charging the murder to have been committed, first, by fracturing the skull of the deceased, by means of the- prisoners' bands; second, by suffocat io n, by means cf Crowning him in a pond of water. This ease excited -extraordinary interest, and lasted nearly the Whole Atty. - The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Lowo and Mr. Dotter. Protn their poverty, the prisoners were unable to employ Coon sels'bit at thereinto of the Learned Judge, Mr. PLATT, and then :lir: CAPRON, severally assisted them in their defence. The deceased was a shepherd in the employment of a respectable farmer named Brooks, at Ilexhill; the prisoners were labourers in husbandry, workirg in the same parish. On the morning of the December, the deceased left his father's house with his two drgit end hit crook, for the purpose of attending his duty as shepherd. lie usually retuned in the evening, but on the evening of that day he did not return at all. Between seven end eight o'clock one of the dogs returned. The father became alarmed, and went in search of his son, but could not find him. It being wet, he returned, and went oat again about ten, but at three in the morning he returned without success. At ten o'clock the same warning he went out again; in his way he met the prisoner, E.dirnrd Daw, who said to him, you have lost Tom. Ile offered to assrx him in acarching for him, and said he would lay anything he h 46 been murdered, and thrown into Kenhurst wood. He also said that he was at home that evening before day-light was abut, and that he was sure he was clear front it. On the morning of the 99th, a person named JohnlPryor, was in D'Arting.field. and he ois envoi a shepherd's dog lying by _the side of a pond. He at a wards met the deceased's brotter, William, who brought his father to the pond. They at arched the pond, and pulled the body of the deceased out, which was found lying on its back. The great coat -4re -- • the heed, ow hand -- sticking just above the - surface of the eau:. Ilia hat sod crook was also found in the pond ; and the dog, which did not return house,. continued by the aide of the pond until the body was found. There were marks of four persons feet on the side of the pond. There was a bruise under the left ear of the de trued, and a fracture on the skull, which had produced death. There was also a deep hole in the mud of the water, ii.to which the head of tl:e d.reatted had sunk, and his watch had been stolen. To bring the charge of murder home to the prison era, a number of witnesses were examined, front which it appeared, that about live years since the deceased gave information of George Daw her- Mg a hare in his possession, and he was committed to Battle goal for poaching. Since Iris liberation they had not been on good terms, and he had frequently said he would murder the old lather and should like to have a Ply poke at Toni and murder him too— these assertions, with many others of the same nature, had been re peated to several witnesses. Mr. Brooks, the prisoner's master, saw Edward Daw after the murder. He said he had been requested to look for deceased, and that if any thing had happened to him it must be some where near Bexhill, and lie added, "depend upon it he was murdered at Ken burst wood." 111 r. Brooks said, 6- who do you think would murder such an barmiest. inoffensive,lad ?" Ile said there were so many rough fellows about, they would do it for the sake of his watch, and that times were so hard they would do it fora shilling, Ile added, " I can clear myself, fur I was in at Easton's last sight at seven o'clock, and never came out till eleven o'clock this morning. , I'll go to Kenhurst wood and look after him—but if I lied him there they'll any I murdered him." On the evening in question, George Daw and the deceased were seen going In a direction to. wards Bexhill ; Edward Daw followed, but went by another road towards BexhilL At Bexhill the deeeased parchaced some tobacco of a pennon na red Stride; and the constable who apprehended the prisoner produced this tohccco, wrapped up in the manic paper which the shopkeeper said had conic from his shop. On the morning of the 29th, the day after the murder, the prisoner, 0. Daw, went the shop of a :qr. Lemon, in Battle, and offere d the deceased's watch for sale; he said that lie was going into Kant, was broken down, and wanted money. The shopkeeper hesitated before he purchased the watch, add at length lent him a pound, and desired he would call in a few days and return it, when he should receive the watch ; in the mean time the prisoner was appre heeded, and the watch was given to the lleaulborough, who in fo ,nred George Law he had possession of the watch he had left at ; and the prisoner said lie bad not been to Bexhill at all. The other prisoner, Edward Law was apprehended the same day, aed there were some marks of blood on his waistcoat. The prisoner's (George Daw) confession was read, wherein he stated, that he met the deceased on the road to Bexhill, and hosed his earl, for haring given 1r:10nm:1:on of his being in possession of a hare; the blow knocked him down, and he ran away with his watch, but he afterwards saw him get up, and go into the tobacconist's shop. They both, in the,: defence, protested their innocence. George Daw was found guilty, and the other was acquitted. The LOUD CHIEF Baaos then passed the awful sentence of he law upon the prisoner, and he was ordered for execution on Monday next. THREATENING LETTER. Charlet Holler and David Gardener were indicted on the statute 4th George IV. c. 64, for feloniously sending a letter to the Rev. Edmund Cartwright, clerk, threatening to accuse him of an in famous crime for the purpose of extorting money. The indict , mint contained thirty-two counts, so as to bring the case, by proper innuendo;, within the scope of the Statute. This case ex cited extraordinary interest. tlr. (;unary and Mr. CntTTY conducted the prosecution. The prisoners were nut defended by Counsel. The prosecutor, Mr. Cartwright, is a highly.respected clergy man., residing at Arundel. In February last he wax on a visit to Sir John Shelly. During his absence hie Lady bespoke a play at he Arundel Theatre, in order to encourage the poor performers who had a had season. He unexpectedly returned in the afternoon from Sir John Shelly's, and the transaction which was the subject of this prosecution was disclosed by the following evidence : The Rev. E. Cartwright deposed, that having some flower plants at Pulborough, which he wished to have brought to Arundel in a barge by water, about a quarter before seven o'clock on Saturday, the 26th of Febuary, he sent for the prisoner Holder, who is a bargemen of Pulborougli, to make arrangements for carrying them on the Monday following. The parlour done being wide open, Mrs. Cartwright came in, and then it was settled that the prisoner should go for the flowers on some future day, and was sent away. A few minutes after seven o'clock witness went out of his house to go to the play which had been bespoken by his wife, and wishing to make the prisoner sonic little recompence for the trouble he had given him, told his servant-boy, C. Tane, to call Ilolder back. The boy immediately went after the prisoner anti brought him back, and witnes met them in the High-street of Arundel, and gave the prisoner a shilling. Witness then went to the Theatre, being then about ten minutes after seven, and remained there until half-past ten. About four o'clock on the Monday following his servant-boy gave him the letter now produced. (The letter was put in and read.) Mr. Cartwright then stated, that being unwilling to alarm his wife, he determined not to take any notice of the letter until early the next morning, when be took it to Mr. Richard Holmes, the attorney, and asked him what he ought to do in such an infamous business. In consequence of the advice of Mr. Holmes, he deter mined to ofind out who the writer of the letter was; and afterwards, whilst he was with Mr. Holmes, lie saw both the prisoners pass by Mr. Holmes's window. Mr. Holmes immediately expressed his suspicions that David Gardener was the writer of the letter, and particularly that the initials " 0." at the bottom were his. It was then arranged that a warrant should be taken out, that witness should mark some money, and that he should send word to Holder for him and the person who wrote the letter to call at his house at eight o'clock in the evening, when constables were to be in attendance to apprehend thesn. At eight o'clock the same even -1 ivy the prisoners came to witness's house, and were shown into his study. A message was then sent to Mr. Holmes to have the constables ready. When the prisoners came into the room, wit ness said to Gardener, " What could induce you to write such a letter, which you must know to be untrue?" Gardener said, "It is all true; I was close by where you were, and I heard and saw every thing. After you were gone I went up to Holder, who was crying like a child, and he then told me what had passed." Upon which witness said, " Although the charge is untrue, I should be sorry to have it talked about." Gardener then said, "If you pay us we will keep it as secret as the grave." Witness asked him what he expected. Gardener then said. " From any other gentle. man I should expect a hundred pounds; but as I hare a great respect for you I will take only 401. ;" and added, that the same thing lately happened to another gentleman, whom he (witness) knew very well, and was a rich titan, and he gave him SOU.; and that he discovered it in the same way, being near the place where the parties were standing. Witness then told the prisoners that he had not so much money by him, but would give them the contents of his purse, and pay the remainder on Thursday. IS Rocas then gave each of the prisoners a sovereign, a half-crown, and a shilling. which had been all previously marked by witness and Mr. Holmes. The prisoner Gardener then said, " To show you that I act honourable, I will give you a receipt," and immediately wrote the following words and figures on a piece of paper:— "That other gentleman rave to me to keep the seckered— £so 0 0 2 7 0 47 13 0" The prisoncrt then quitted the house. but were immediately taken into sostosly by the constables, and the money found upon them, which witness now Identified. ...... Mrs. Cartwright nor:timed her husband's testimony as to the lbw of his going to the theatre on the evening of the 26th of Fe bruary, and that he remained there from about ten minutes peat seven until half-past ten, when they both returned home. She also confirmed him es to the prisoner Holder having been sent for to go to Pulborough to bringsthe garden flowers, and the arrangement by which the plan was altered. Charles Tare, servant to Mr. Cartwright, deposed, that on Ss. turday evening, the 26th of February, just as his master was going to the play, he told him to go after the prisoner Holder, who had just before left the house, and tell him he wanted hits, and would meet him on the mad. This was about a quarter after seven. He immediately went after Holder, and found hint in the kitchen of the Swan Inn, and brought him back with him. They met Mr. Cartwright in the High-street, and Mr. Cartwright said to Holder, he wsnted to give him a shilling to go w the play. In the after. noon of Monday, the 28th of February, about three o'clock, wit ness met Holder in Msltravers•street, who on coming up to hint gave him the letter row produced, and told him to give it to his master, and not let Mrs. Cartwright see it About a quarter of an hour afterwards he gave the letter to his master. Mr. Holmes the attorney proved that the prosecutor had coo. suited him what lie was to do on receiving the letter in question ; and that in consequence of his advice the meeting between the pro secutor and the prisoners, the marking of the money, and the apprehension of the prisoners in the manner mentioned, took place. - - - - - One of the performers at the theatre. on the night of the 26th of February, proved that on that evening Mrs. Cartwright hod be- spoken a play, from motives of kindness to the players, who had bad a bad season. She had taken a box for herself and friends near the stage. Witness, just before the commencement of the play, booked through a hole in the curtain, and saw Mr. Cartwright, dire. Cartwright, and another lady, sitting in the box. It was then exactly . a quarter after seven o'clock. Ile had looked at his watch just at that moment ; and be observed that Mr. Cartwright remained in the box during the whole performance. Two constables proved, that about eight o'clock on the evening of the 28th of February, they apprehended the prisoners coming out of the house of Sir. Cartwright, and on searching them they found on each a sovereign, a half-crown, and a sh i lling. The money was produced and identified by the prosecutor and Mr. Holmes. This was the ease for the prosecution. The prisoners being called upon for their defence, both repeated the charge, and persisted in stating that the contents of the letter were true. They called no witnesses. The Counsel for the prosecution said, they were possessed of evi dence to show that in point of fact the prisoner Gardener was in bed at his lodgings, seven miles from the spot, at the very time when he represented bitnself to have witnessed the supposed transac tion In question ; but The Learned Junes said, that such evidence was quite unneees nary, the utter falsehood of the charge having been demonstrated by the witnesses already examined. Mr. Baron GRAII•11 then summed up the evidence. His Lord ship commended the firmness with which the Rev. prosecutor had acted, in resisting the urocious threat of the prisoners, and the din ' %%fon manifested to bringior them to justice. It was impossible for spy turn to doubt the faise:Ood and wickedoess or the charge ELEGANT FURNITURE, GLASSES, PIANO-FORTE, LINEN, PORCELAIN. CLOCKS, lac.

He should not torture litautelf with endeavouring to find out language sufficiently strong to express his indignation at the horrible atrocity of the prisoners. Their offence demanded in a Court of Justice the severest penalty ' which the law allowed, and lie should he guilty of a dereliction of his duty if he did not carry the law to its utmost extent. Never was a case so satisfactorily made out ; and his Lordship must say, that the Rev. prosecutor deserved the thanks of the country for the firm. ness and fortitude with which he had brought the case before a Court of Justice.

When the Judge's order was received at the o ffi ce, the Marshal said it watt irregular, the word " Gentleman" being omitted • and of course not agreeing with the precipe, he refused to obe y it by discharging him Irvin custody. Mrs. Scott and many friends were in the daily habit of visiting him, and h's associates were of the first class in Bunco Regis. On Sunday (the 20th instant) he accompanied Mrs. S. to a dinner party at a friend's room in the State House, and while Mrs. Scott was preparing tea he retired to his own apartment, dis guised himself as a female, and taking advantage of the confusion from the great of ux of visitors late on a Sunday evening, contrived to elude the vigilance of the turnkeys, pulsed with the crowd through the lobbies, and eventually bolted without the gates of the prison. IVhen the last bell rang "to warn all strangers out," and Scott, preparing to retire, went to his dormitory for her pelisse, he was wins est invents:, but his upper clothes were found, which fully convinced them of his having taken French kart. Although every inquiry has been made during the past week by the Marshal's scouts, his actual retreat has not yet been discovered.
