OLD BAILEY, FiIDAY, Sam 23. (Before Mr. Justice LITTLE[ AL/ and a Al kidlesex Jury.) W. S. Smith was capitally Indicted under Lord Etienborough's Act, for feloniously cutting and atabbirg Charles Walters, on the , 16th July last. The following were the arircumstances of the case, as they ay , peered from the evidence of the prosecutor— Charles Walters examined-1 am landlord of the Three Tuna public.houne, in Brook-street Holborn, and on the 16th July, I observed the prisoner at the Ur, in the parluur of my house. There were other persons in the room at the time, some of whom were bri:klayers, and thaw wan one labourer in the company. One of the party trrlide a complaint to me that he had lost his bandker. chief. At that time the prisoner was lying with his held placed oh the rim of his hat, apparently asleep. Hearing the complaint, I went over to the prisoner and roused him, and informed him that a haridkerchief had been lost, and that he was suspected to have taken it. I Insisted on having the handkerchief returned. at the same dme observing, " if I suffered such things to take place in my public. house, I should lose my slaameter and nobody would frequeet it in future." Prisoner hearing this, replied, "he hail not gratert.h.." One of the bricklayers then said the prisoner ~ h ad handed it to a man in the next box." I immediately insisted On the prisoner's leaving my house. He moved from one aid of the box to the other, aid I followed him ; I proceeded to put him nut by force. Prisoner struck aunt, and I struck at him again. I lifted him ap to turn him out of the house, and be threw himself on the ground, where he lay ua his back. All this time I kept hold of hint by the collar, and he continued to strike at me. Some of the persons pre. sent cried out, " he's killing you." I then looked and observed blood running from my arm, and on examination. I tound that 1 bad been s:abbrd in my arm in three several places, but I had not received any injury elsewhere. Cross-examined by Mr. BUODEEICIE—I wanted to turn the pri soner out, who was nut sober at the time of this occurrence. If weever. he wat not so tipsy as net to be aware of what he was doing. 1 had not been playing at " shove halfpenny " with the prisoner that day. There were some persons playing at that game, but I can't say that I . joined them. I won't swear that I didn't—l shouldn't like to per myself. I dare say I may hare drank with the prisoner that day. 1 believe I did.' Mr. Bimini Ice contended that it was not possible to convict the prisoner 'ander Lur.l Ellenboruugb's Act on the evidence now offered in support of the indictment. It appeared from the testi. many of the mosecutur, that suspecting the prisoner at the bar of having emninitted a theft, he attempted to turn him out of the house, and laid violent hands on him with that intention. In doing this the prosecutor. had atte mp ted to do what he had no right to perform because, if be wished the prisoner to be searched or re moved from his premises, it was his duty to have sent for a con. stable for that purpose. His Lordship was aware that in cases of this nature, where the party who had sustained the injury had corn. menced the affray in which the wounding took place, the capital charge could not be established—the fact of such violence on the part of the prosecutor removing the case out of the purview of the Act. Even had the prosecutor in the present case been killed in the scuffle between him and the prisoner, and the latter indicted for the fact, the Jury must have found him guilty only of man slaughter, add not of murder. He humbly submitted that the principle he had laid down was billy applicable to the present case, and consequently that the prisoner was entitled to an acquittal. Mr. Justice LATTLEDALE concurred it the principle sought to be established by the Learned Counsel, and told the Jury, that if the prosecutor had been killed, and the prisoner indicted for his murder, the Jury could have only convicted him of manslaughter ; but a person who could not be indicted for murder, had death es. sued front he injuries indicted , could not be considend liable to the penalties of Lord Ellepborough's Act for cutting and maiming.' This being. the test of liability to its provisions the Jury would acquit the prinoner. Verdict accordingly—Not gadfly. Edward Rams, William, Crook, Sanwa Crook, Cul* were put to the bar, charged with stealing a quantity of the value of lael. -.upset; of Messrs. Waterloo and on the 12th of The dram! Samuel Crook was appreetice ; nod, on, from the premise.; a . them. Shortly after was discovered that ..._ goods in question , the premises of the prosecetors, who are silk-, ...torero. From the arcuntstancu connecfed -with the case tt appeared that the persons who had plundered the premises most have been assisted by some one within, and, suspicion falling upon the prisoner Samuel Crook, he was taken into custody. 'On the day before the robbery the prisoner Mason having been seen in the company of Samuel Crook (the prosecutors' nppren dee), under suspicious circumstances, he also was apprthend , d, and in his lodgings, In White's.row, the whole of the stolen property was discovered. The female prisoner (Gable), who lived with Mason, made her escape at the time of the search, but Ira afterwards apprehended. Suspicion attached to the remaining prisoner William Crook, who is the brother of Samuel Crook, from the fact of his having been discovered concreted in Mason's room, and tinder the bed, at the time of the search. Several witnesses gave the prisoners excellent characters. Mr. J ustice LivrattgatE eh/hied the dhcry, *hatband a ver dict of goilty against Edwatil Minion and Samuel Crook, and ac quitted William Crook and Anne Gable. The prisoner Marion wets ratkereeepectable young man, anchly weeping eopfirasly during she progress of the trial, evinced that he was not accustomed to his present situation. The female prisoner,, when the verdict was pronottreed, though it was one of acquittal to her, tell into a passionate tit of weeping, and appeared to be more effected by the misfortune of her companion than rejoiced at her own escape. As she was supported out into the yard her shrieks were audible and particularly affecting. THE CASE OF IRDERICK WILSON. It will be it; the recollection of our reorient that the above person stood indicted at the Imo Sessions as Frielet irk Wilson , alien Ogilvie, alias Coober,' and Ovalle was acquitted on his trial at the present &MIMS. There. are, however, two other indietmetts egalest him, and there being but three or four cases to try, it was confidently asserted that he would be put on his Wel, and the Coon became crowded to excess. By elx o'clock the whole of the Counsel, TlE..:—ltlehars. Adolphus. C. Phillips, Broderick, elm. I dress, and Law, were in attendance. At the close of the trials. which follow, expectation was raised to the highest pitch. It was now nine o'clock, and the Counsel and Recorder consulted for I some time, when it was resolved that the Jury .should be dia -1 charged for the night. The Common Sergeant at this time entered I the Court, and now It was whispered that the case would be heard lin the New Court. The July was finally ordered to give their attendance to-marrow -(this day) at ten o'clock, when the prisoner will be put upon his trial. UTTERING COUNTERFEIT COIN. Samuel Phillips, a Jew lad, was put to the bar on an indictment the:ging with uttering, on the 3d of August, in the City of Lon don, four base pieces of coin, purporting so be for 2e. (lad. each, pf the lawful coin of the realm, to a tnason awned Bayliss. •Jury eurnstances cf the ease, something like extortion, was seceded to,l And the complainant satisfied the coachman ; but not so the guard, who demanded remuneration for having loaded his luggage at Bit ' hiinghain. The complainant had great difficulty in understanding that the claim of the guard was a fair one, notwithstanding the earnestness and veherneneta with which it was enforced, and the occasional embellishment of abuse, in the true guard style. But, in order to escape from the clamour which was liaised, and in i which Jehu joined with all the fraternal sympathy so peculiar to the slang tribe, he.also gave the guard two shillings ; but baying done them, he resolved upon bringing the matter before the public, and accordingly appeared at 130 w-street. Mr. M fumy at. said it was an Instance of gross misconduct in the parties complained of, and that the gentleman had done a pub_ lie service by this exposure. On his procuring the names of the coachman and guard, he would issue a warrant, and render the complainant every assistance in his power. SHAM ATTORNEYS. ,a I QUIEN-S4I:IARI, Seri . 23—A case oatne on at this o ffice bore Mr. WHITE, the Magistrate, which exposed a system that is carried on by a set of fellows who haunt the Old Bailey during I the Sessions, and by imposing themselves on the friends of the un. fortunate iudividuals who are to be tried, as reputable Solicitors, undertake to prepare the defence, provide Counsel, &c. and foe which they always contrive to draw a stun of money in advance. When once they obtain this, their °Nett, nothing more is seen of them, and th e wretched prisoner is left to his fate, which the fol lowing case will exemplify : James Evans, a ladder-make, at Knightsbridge, appeared to a summons,to showicause why he refused to deliver up the sum of one , guinea, which had been given to him to provide Counsel fur a man named Woodcock,-who had been tried for a felony this present Old Bailey Sessions. It appeared from the statement of several witnesses, that in con sequence Of a man named Woodoeck. u carpenter, tiering been committed some time back ror foe stealing some lead from the Fox Welk-house, (at Knigkeakidese.which is undergoing a repair, they had in consequence of bls.former good behaviour en tered into a subscription at their house of call to provide hiot With the assistance of Counsel. The defendant, when the subscription was proposed, was in the room, and said that he would, upon his receiving a fee of a guinea, undertake to procure Counsel for the prisoner. Those persons who had entered into the subscription con sented to give him the required sum, and the money was accord. ' , ingly delivered to him. Nothing more was heard of him till the day before the Sessions, when the defendant applied for a further advance of money, saying that Indus he had a further supply he could not se° on with the business. T person to whom ,I„te sp piled said be would mention it tothessone who had subscribed the guinea, and requested to know how much mere he would want he said 30s. The application was made tnoan to the friends of the prisoner, who could not muster so much ; the consequence was, that its never employed Counsel, and the man was tried last Friday and found guilty. lie had since been applied to, to refund the money, but be had refused. Evans, In answer to the charge, admitted receiving the guinea for the purpose of providing Counsel for the man, and had handed the money over for that purpose to his own solicitor (pointing to a shabby looking man near hint). Mr. Krung, addreseing the individual alluded to by the de fendant—Pray, Sir, are you a solicitor i and what may be your name ? The person said his name was Preston; that he certainly was not p certificated attorney, but he was with Mr. Giles, of Clement's Inn, who is, and that's all the same, Sir. Mr. WRITX—No, it is not all the same; you are ro solicitor, Mr. Giles may be. and I am sure no respectable solicitor would act in such a disgraceful manner. The individual said that be was not aware that a man must be a certificated attorney before he can transact the business at Sessions. Mr- WITITE said, he did not wish to argue the case with him ; all meld say was, there were a vast number of fellows about called sham-attorneys, that were defrauding the public, and people could not be too much on theft gourd. The individual said that Mr. Giles was at present out of town, , and lie acted in his stead; he had drawn up the brief ready to put into the Counsel's hands, and it the friends of the prisoner were not provided with the fee, it was not his fault. The guinea he re ceived from Evans barely paid for the proceedings that had been already done. Mr. WHITE said, he was positive that had Mr. Giles taken the guinea lie would hare done justice to his client, or have returned the money. However, as far as regarded the defendant, be seemed to have acted as he considered proper, and lie was willing to be lieve he had done so ignorance, therefore he should dismiss the case, but hot* the publication of the case in the papers would put the public on dusk guard.

Mr. Dowling. a gentleman connected with the ilformitra Chro. nick, now said that Mr. Clement sou unable to attend from indis position, but that he was ready to submit to any order the Alegi/- cruet, might think lit to make. Mr. Mallimion, the Registrar from Somerset House, havin proved the publication of the paper containing the pararaL complained of, and Mr. Adolpitua admitting Mr. Clement to be t proprietor, Mr. Martin's a ffi davit was read, when Mr. Minahall I observed that he thought there was sufficient ground for him to I call upon the patty to find bail to answer the charge before another triMmal. Mr. A DOLPH be.—Then, Sir, with your permission, I will make a few observations. The Learned Counsel then went on to argue that the language of the paragrai•ii complained of watimerely bainogc, sod that similar expressions had always been held in our Courts not to be actionable. He then went en to describe an oh 'score person taking upon himself an imaginary power, assuming a mock importance, and adventuring his mite in the lottery scheme of popularity, pretending to a great deal of humanity toward the brute creation, and, under that pretence, committing the grossest outrages on humanity ; acting like those persons who put on an air of mock modesty to utter'every obsce&ty . He had understood that Mr. Martin had taken great offence at his name being coupled with that of an au. If either party had any reason to complain, it was 'the au. The ass ia a very useful, innocent, and respectable aiii tail. " I know not," added the Learned Counsel, whether there be any affinity between Jack and Richard, but this I know, that in j Essex arid the adjoining counties, the 8.4% is always called a Dick- ase.

I But there Is soother fact. Mr. Mink has sworn that he is in tear of his life; he is, in. tact, in no fear at all. He, in the Chronicle 1 office yesterday evening . , said that he. was very glad that this affair bad happened, that 'it would all tend to his honour and glory.' " Mr. Adolphus was . going on to impeach Mr. Martin's veracity, when that gentleman, who had evidently kept his seat with great , difficulty for some tithe, started up, and called Mr. Adolphus " a icoundrel." . . 'A general murmur ran through the office it this interruption, when, order being restored, Dlr. Adolphus, without noticing the epithet, shortly concluded his remarks. Mr. Illartin now' rose, and said, that notwithstanding all that had passed to irritate him, he still retained his temper, and upon his, ,oath he still conexitred his life to be in danger. Upon which Mr. ,medium, put an end to Ow proceedings, by observing, that as the iron. Gentleman persisted in owearing to that effect, this duty was to hold the defendant to bail, al= though lie considered the party complained against as infinitely too respectable to entertain any serious intentions of ussassi nating or even injuring Mr. Martin. The ball he should re quire would be two sureties io 4001. nch, and Mr. Clement him self in GOOI. FURIOUS DRIVING. A person or singular appearance applied to the Magistrates for their advice as to the mode or proceeding against the coachman and guard of the Tallyho coach, from Birmingham to London. I It appeared, fr3in the statement of the complainant, that he yesterday morning tonic his seat on the top of the Tully-ho ; and that when aboot midway un his road to tower, another coach having come up with that on which he was riding, the coach man, in order to keep die toad. drove at so furious a tate that the complainant became alarmed, and requested that he might be al. lowed to ahift his quarters, and continue lila journey upon the other vehicle, which appeared to be proceeding_ with more caution and regularity. To this the coachman of the Tally.ho reluctantly assented, on condition that the coniphtintint would pay him fee his tumble In removing his baggage (the complainant's Tare being gl:cedy paid). The request, although it appeared, unties the ch. i Ir. Thomas Thompson , the Inspector (501nM is simiers of Crown Lands, from the Office of Woods and Forests, charged two persons, the drivers of certain cans, and named Staples and Bates, with obstructing the Sing's high road in Great Scot land-yard, on the :ith of the present month. He described the offence u an evil of growing magnitude, which he laboured to abide, but too often in vain. Mr. MARKLAND-1 take it for panted, Mr. Thompson, that the evil is neatly as you describe it. Did you take the numbers of the carts ? Mr. THOMPSON-4 did, Sir. Mr. 31Alt[LAND--enn you swear to theta ? Mr. Thompson—Val, Sir. He aided, that he had repeatedly rarned the parties of the nature of their offences. but to no purpose ; that on one occasion Staples had *busied him.

CHARGE OF MURDER. 23.—The brother of a man aimed Furionger, whose body was, about fire weeks ago, taken out of the Thames, with marks of violence upon it, attended at 'this Office, before the sitting Magistrate, M. SWAB'', Esq. for .toe purpose of producing testimony to p rove that his unfortunate brother had been murdered. It will be in the recollection of our readers that about five weeks agu the deceased had been picked up In the water near Westminster-bridge ; and upon examination a dreadful fracture was found upon the back part of his headov hich was supposed to have occasioned his death ; and from the evidence ad duced before the Coroner on the Inquest, the Jury returned a Tee., diet of wilful murder. Since the above proceeding, the present ap plietint has been uuwearied in his exertions iti endeavouring to trace out by what means bl 3 brother had come by his death. fie declared to the Magistrate, that he bad the strongest grounds tor'' credibly believing that bit brother had been murdered, and he , now brow ht forward the female with wham the deceased cohabited, who would prove that the day.prcvious to the one on which his body wad found a man named Pratt had addressed himself to her in the neighbourhood of Queen.square Police-office, guying, " Your man (meaning Furlonger) will be brought homeont shatter before lora." After having said these words he walked away, and the following day the deceased was discovered in the river with his skull fractured. The deceased's brother added, that he had seen Pratt in the street that morning, and in-sisted that he should forth with appear before a Magistrate, in order to exculpate himself, if he Could, hem the words attributed to him; presaging the death of his (applicant's) brother. The' woman was now io attendance. She would describe the author of the words, although she had never seed him before nor since the day on which he anticipated the death of the deceased. The Magistrate expressed his teadiness to hear any particulars that would throw a light upon the manner in which the deceased had met with hisdeath ; but. he thought it .extremely improbable that the man now accused was really the person who uttered the prediction, which it appeared was subsequently verified. The ,Magistrate having asked her name, which she said was Mary King, desired her to describe the person of the roan before he was brought into her presence? She said that he was • man of dark swarthy complexion, with a cut, as well as she could recollect, under his eye, and of middling stature. Pratt was then intro. ducei, and the moment she saw him she exclaimed " that is the man." Pratt corresponded with her description of him in all respects accurately enough, with the exception of having the mark of a deep cut close to the right eye on the temple instead of its being under the eye.. The' Magistrate then desired her to give an account of the circumstances that induced her to believe that the individual then before bum was implicate: in the murder of the deceased. In reply, she &ate'', that during the time she'vras wait. ing for Furlonger outside Queett-square Office, who appeared' before the Magtetrates agair,et two men who had assaulted him, both of whom were committed to gaol, Pratt came up to her and used the expresslona already mentioned, and then' went away. That she • heard the deceased say . the same evening,' Those 'diver', I -arn sfreisieweiiksite far rev befersr ehe' Sessions commence," and, extraordinary to relate, the unfortunate man was brought home dead in a little time afterwards. These she said were leer reasons for suspecting Pratt was concerned in his death.' Pratt, who is a very young man, and has been repeat. edly in custody on charges of felony, appeared highly Indignant at time accusation, and declared that he had never in his life before seen the woman who had now come forward and at.' tributed certain words to him, which had never escaped his lips to any human being. " What day," said he, addressing the fe. male, " did I utter words to the effect that any man would be brought home on a shutter." The woman replied that it was on a Thursday, exactly tire weeks ago, between the hours of twelve and one o'clock in the forenoon, close to Queen-squire Office." Pratt_." l'hat's a falsehood, for I was standing a criminal at the bar of this office on a charge of robbery on that very day, and during time hours yea mention ; therefore at is evident to all, you are asserting lies to ruin me." The Magistrate, upon reference to his mintue.tsook, observed that an entry was in it which placed the circumstance beyond all doubt of Platt's being a prisoner on the day the words im. puted to him were said to have been uttered; for Thursday five weeks ago was the 10th August, and by his minutes of the evidence it appeared, that on that day, and at the hour alleged by Mary King, Pratt was in custody on a charge of having stolen a saw ; that be was remanded, and ultimately brought up again on the 25th, when he was discharged, therefore this circumstance at once cstr blished the fact of her having mistaken the young man now at the bar fur some other Mall. Mary King still persisted that what she stated was correct in every , particular, and that she was not mistaken in Pratt. The brother of the deceased exhibited great anxiety to have Pratt sent to gaol, declaring that he was convinced that person had a hand in his brother's death. Pratt still denied the accusation. Mr. SW ABEY observed, that had the words imputed to Pratt taken place on Wednesday insteed of Thursday, as alleged by the woman King, then there might have been some reasons to suspect that lie heal a previous knowledge of what was abdut to befall the ' deceased. However, as he (the Magistrate) was most anxious to fn. 'vestlgate the matter fully, he would asoettaln the precise day upon Width the deceased and the persons by whom he had been tygulted appeared before the Magistrate at Queen-square. Pratt was then ordered to attend to4notrow the Prisoner. POLICE• bet accordingly—Nor gadfly. warned l Ti lm e I p m arties ' reed Mum, William. Crook, Samuel Creek and slime MARTIN v.
