The Prisoner declared that lie bad printed off the perste according to the directions he had received ; that be had done so without reckoning them, and as to the difference in the paper he had not observed it, or if be hail, be thought it not worthy of notice.

JUSTICIARY COURT, Matrons, Santini!" 20, The Justiciary Court was rimmed here this day by Lord Iticasta• D. Thire %ere only two cases before the Court, and these of no treat importance, and we believe a goad many year* have elapsed since the calendar was so light is this quarter. H'illiane ✓ohnsfon woe first placed at the bar. ■ccusrd of abstracting a silver watch from the person of Walter Role, shoemaker at Archerbeck, parish of Csaiihie, un the ?3.l of May last, sod iii the house of Peter Telford, innkeeper, Laiikholm. Walter Rule, the person robbed; Peter Telford, innkeeper, Lang ; Thomas HOWII3III and James Scutt, weavers there, were examined in sticee,:sion; and from the evidence of these persona, it was clearly established that Role, after drinking • gill of whiskey soda bottle of beer on the evening of the day alluded to (Lane°lin Fair), had fallen asleep on a chair or form, and that Johnston, taking advantage of his helpless situation, had cut his breeches across abuse the fob, and in this way eared him, as Ilaggarl would say, of a silver watch, ♦alue two guineas. On awakening, Rule mimed his watch, and num( diately blamed the Prisoner, the only person who bad heeu left i• the room with him. The alarm was of course soon given, and in the course of the fol lowing morning, Thos. Hownam and James Scutt discovered Johnston, and s%i?ged him with the theft. This charge the Panel stoutly denied, declaring he had not a watch allow him, and as proof of his innocence, voluntarily strip.. pert, ■nd allowed them to inspect part of his dress. By ibis artful demonstration, he so far imposed upon the witn esses , that they were about to let him go, when he began to tell them some ridiculous story as to his having lost money in • public-house, the name and sign of which he ilkl not know. In answer to this, the parties desired him to come along, and they would assist him in recovering his lust pro. pertv ; but after proc►eding • abort way, Johnston attempted to break away, when Thomas Huwnam seized him by the neck, and in this way discovered the stolen watch snugly concealed in the folds of his neckcloth. Lord Brum/m shortly summed up, and the Jury, with. out leaving the Mow, returned • verdict of Guilty. Robert Newham was next placed at the bar, accused of elites log by a ladder a room in the house of Rostliall, and als.trecting from • porker-book belonging to Mr. Gil:e;pie 11/.1.1 notes and lOs. its sitter. The Prisoner, who is a man of small stature, and rather feeble looking, pl-aded Grtilly to the charge ; and so far as hie looks could he interpreted, he appeared very penitent. The Jury having again been mourn. returned a verdict of Gadfly against the Panel, in terms of his own confession. The Judge now proceeded to pronounce sentence upon Johnston, uhom he admonished to leads new life, and atone by his future conduct for the bat* and cowardly manner its which lie lisd robbed a pour man who was fast asleep at the time. Sentence—twelve mouths' imprisonment in the gaol of Dumfries. On hearing this sentence, the Panel impudently exclaimed, " Thank Goal, my Lord, it is no worse! You and I will meet in H and then we'll ire n Ito% innocent. The watch might hive beets in fifty hand., and the man otoAloo to he sworn-1 Par he ought to he sworn—that'. n hat I say, Gen tlemen." The Pt vioner was proceeding with a `real deal muse swooseuse, when he was interrupted and ordered to sot down. Lola HeRMaND then pronounced sentence on Newsliana, whose crime, he said, was aggravated by the Intact, of trivet it implied. In tin se circumstances the mildest sentriete of the law which he resold award was transepts' tenon for ',even years. This rutin it hung 111. head and said nut a word; but Johnston :even started to bill fret, and t xe hinted, " Its mot tled hightail robbery! and murder! Is these no man of was's ulcer in the company that will come forward and speak for a poor fellow that'll been shedding his blood fur his King and resurvey. There's no justice, fly G—d ! not a bit of justice here!" and suiting the action to the word, he struck the boards of the Rollers box with the grrateat fury. The Judge seemed much shocked at the behaviour of this man, whose uoisageous and hardened conduct exceeded that of any criminal we ever saw brought into Court, and inquired if there was no Bridewell in which he could be confined and kept at herd labour. Millie Kerr replied in the negative ; buss promised to confine him in a dark cell, an: feed him on bread and water; Ns that Johnston will gain nothing by his ignorant and insohnt bravado:fig. On bring carried back to gaol, his conduct, we are informed, was, if possible., still Mort - Vittirtli and 01.Sit - Pperoilli. nos finished the Issisoicas of the Court.

The following is a Inlet and imperfect outline of the very eloquent and inapt:o'er charge delivered by the I.:wind Jis :ire (Floater) on this occasion :— " At length the investigation of these important pro. reeding., which have been so much retsrepreieuted, and have excited so mur► nog, y feeling and public anxiety, is brought to a ctn.e; and 1 am not surprised at the great internee to „hseh ii has give.. birth. It now only remains for.you to stamp the character of the transaction; suit the poi.l Inc your consislerat ism is, whether the Prisoners at the bar hese been guilty of a riot, or nut ? It appears is evidence, that of those who Me now on their trial at the bar, four, v.z. Michael Linen,. John Ahearn, Tenure Ahearn, and Jul.s Matiolield, si Oh a great cumber of other persons, assembled ten Ihr t en ds of Gm !Nag's, us, the 19th day of June, and there proceeded to level the (ernia& house of .1.

With respect to their claim of a tight of commonage on the moun tain. which was endeay.•ured to be established by the Coun sel fir the Prisoners, as an excuse for their violent Con duct, if the Prisoners have any such right, they could not by law use.t it in the notion and tumultuous man ner which you have heard desc 'bed, and which conduct, I mu., sae, could only be equalled by the natives of New Holland or New Zealand toward. a civilized colony see settlement am rag them.—Gentlemen, where a liege onsaof people aoosinislins, and continues to assemble, contrary to the orders of she Maginrates and of every other civil au thority, and creates hitter in his Majesty'. eubjects., undoubtedly such amembly is riotous—(Hear the Least,. sl Judge read the following extra• l from "Rapti: on ethers and ili.tdetneanors." which he highly euteig zed, rota 4 p 355.] " If any person, seeing other. actually engaged in a not, joins himself to them, tool assists them thin in, he is as much a rioter as if he had at first atnembl, d with thttu for the same purpose, inantsitirli as he bits no ',science that he came issoiscristly into the company, hut appears to lisle j .hoed hinteelf to them with an intention of secuadiug them sit the execution of their unlawful olio prise ; and it would be eitilleis, as well as superfluous, to amebae whether every particular person engaged in a nut was in truth one of the first assembly, or actually hid a previous knowledge of the sl sigti ; sud the law is, that if ■u, permit es.- courage., or promotes, or takes part in riots, whether by words, signs, or gestures ; or by wearing the badge or cit. sign of the rioters, he is hitneelf to be considered a rioter, for its this case all are principals. The inciting persons to assemble in a riotous manlier appear. also to have here Con sidered as an indictable offence." His Lordship then con. tinned—" It is nut only lawful for the civil authoring,, but it is their lip:murices duty, and they only are autborissit to assemble * force, and even, if oecesaary, to call tool Ile military, to disperse such illegal Ind dangerous meetings. No pertain can mecum me of a wish to call for the assist. moor of the military, whenever it man be dispensed with; hut von hare heard the evidence of Mr. Maonsell, the Sub. Sheriff, who assisted sin that occasion, than whom, during the whole ff myjudicial experience, 1 never heard a muse candid or satisfactory winos ; one who, though cullers us d himself, was leas inclined to misrepresent or exaggerate, ui appeared goose anxious to distinguish between the fact. t!e,t came to his own knowledge at the time, cad demur which he after.ea,it. seceivol inforniation.—Fruni his evidence, and that of Mr. such appear. to have been the character of the messing at which those Prisoners assisted, and fir which (hey are indicted; and I have on hesitation saying, that if, unfortunately, thirty or forty of the sit,.. guided ',rooms who were so tumultuously assembled hNol killed, it would not have amounted even to manalairght. *lle law is thus laid duwo in the exrellent wink which I b.., already quoted, vol.
