When Sir Charles Banbury and Sir Henry Punburv, the defendant in this cause, came into possession of the title and estates, no one could have k nown the state of the title. aid eons. client!, there coeld be no !aches on 'the part of Sit Hei.ry Butibltry, the present proprietor. When Mr. Dennis clime into possession he refused payment of tithes, as he rented the Lads is question tithe free item Sir Henry Dunintry. In the suit that attended that refusal, it-apeemed that those closes, to the tithe of which the plaintiff laid claim, were severed from the rest by a decision of the Commisalusters of Enclosures, and consequently ao defence could be made. The admission that was then made was m ignorance of the deed which was found by Mr. Holmes. and he hoped that the I:nurt would allow the answer In this cause to be attended. which containedlian admission, which, though it would art be of any great advantage to Sir henry Banbury to have cor rected. yet it would be a setorus Injury to him that it should remain onaniended ; lie said that he was willing to pay the costa should his naotOtt be acceded to. ltlr. •ltT ?wit addressed tho Court. He said the simple guess lion was this, what is the rule of a Court of Equity ? Will a de fendant who has admitted what may be injurious to the totems!, of his cause, be allowed, after he sees his error, to emend his ad- Missions, and thus turn his !aches to a good account ? In Equity moos he 'Nought the Court should receive such applications with Cleat jesisusy mid caution. The Learned Counsel wss proceeding to make further observa tions, when Mr. Ihron OR AUAM observed, that the Court was In full pos• maim ~1 1 tt , e nature o the case, and though he was ready and Otte willing to hear the arguments of the Learned Oentieman, yet he thong''' that. peliaps, to spare the time of the Chin, the peorned Counsel would not think it necessary to press his argu ment. Mr. brietT replied that he was conscious of the indulgence of the l'ourt. and would not occupy their Lordships time with any thrther observations. _ Mr. Jane's then addressed the Court for the plaintiff'. He said that he objected to the application,on the ground of form; the terms of notice of motion were too general. and it would not be invidious temper a maxim of law that weak cases deal in generale." The teellee was put in without oath ; it did not state specifically what they wished. and he therefore considered the decision of the Lord Oiancellor. in the casel'urling v. the Marquis Townshend. fatal to the implication of the defendants in this cause. In that case it epee decided that the notice of motion should state the nbject of web rootiot.. It was clear that decision reformd to the terms of the no. dice. and it tel. equally clear that in all former cases • precise state men of wl it:hr parties making an application to the Court wished, had twin invariably made in the notice of motion. He objected to the nurinn en another ground, on that of negligence. There has been (said the Learned Counsel) coos negligence in this cam. I do not use the words unadvisedly, and I feel confident I' shall con vince your Lnrdshipe that the negligence which renders this appli cation to the Court at all necessary, shows • hitches on the part of the nefendaats t the perception of the tithes were in the plaintiff, and this deed was • useless piece 01 parchment. M' hat, he would ask. emit' knee induced the solicitor of Sir Henry Sunbury to smirch for this tiled if it was not to make it available for the pur poses of this nit? Was not that solicitor (Mr. Holmes) connected with Mr. Ca.!, who was one of the defendaws in the cue sr Marvels. flood, and Case? Mr. Holmes has told us that the dsetl has been found since Trinity Term, but had Mr. Holmes told the whole tenth, he would have told us that the search foe that deed was made us forward that case. It was a mistake to suppose that the plaintiff in this case was the lay impropriator of 600 acres, mated in and Sir Henry B. the improuriator of the remainder. The question of right in this case was referred to the Commise.onere of i,nelorures, but they refused to decide; they had In fast no authority to gire a decision on the question. The late tier C. Bonhory insisted that 'he was entitled to the tithes of these lends. and if gross negligence was not attributable to the parties Interested for the defendants, that was the time for the search for this deed to have been made. In 1619, a bill was filed against Lennie, to which he pt.' in an answer. That suit came to be beard in January our title was admitted, and we got an or cite for an account. We have been kept at arm's length by every *tenant in those lands ; Sir Henry Sunbury and his agents supported those occupants in their opposition to us; tie -was riot satis f i ed with countenancing this oppoeition, but a ferdetf-it to pe , sons with whom he had no connexion whatever. The learned gentleman then adverted to several affidavits in the awe, to prove that tile lards were let subject to tithes, and that a• person of tile name of Andrews, who was steward to Sit Charles Eisiver. swore that those lands were let subject to tithes. Tring Infused to take the land on those Onlditiows; and en that refusal Dennis took the lands. _ Surest other affidavit* were then read, to prove that the parti. culler doses in question were let eubject to tithes. To which Counsel an the other aide replied, that the property of Sir Charles Banbury ettended over • space of 600 acres in that district; that the closes In question did not contain move than thirty ; and that those affidavits did not prove any thing relative to the closes. Mr. Jarvis concluded by observing that there had been a degree of seeeligenee in the case, which he was sure (he said it with great deference) would deprive the Court of the power of granting this application. Mr. KRIORT followed on the same side. He said that Illr. Jervis had so ably discussed the case that he had left little tor Lien to do. This, he contended, was a notice of motion, giving the Court no jurisdiction. There were contests for years between tbg plaintiff end Sir Henry Sunbury; there was suit after suit; and yet this deed was never heard of until now. This was certainly a capable negligence: In fact, the very cause which brought them to the far of the Court was in itself an admission to that effect, and -conclusive evidence of negligence. It' their Lordships. thought that this was. judicisily, negligence, then the aoplication of the 'defendant could not be granted. There was no proof the identity of the land. Mr. Feels swears that he believes (and no one was faun disposed to credit that gentleman's belief than himself). that they were tho same lands; but he does not state by what process af reasoning he arrived at that conclusion. The links in the chain -of the deterrence of thou lands was not very distinct. Potter densely, than to Perceval, the latter to Hamner: but there was a broad gulf between Hanmer and Sir Henry Bunbury. There was ISO evident,' whatever of the conveyance of the land from Hanmer so Sir Henry Bunhury; and under those circumstances he thought no order nn the application could be granted. Mr. MARTIN replied. He said that he bad many observations hs make ; he would not waste the time of the Court with a repeti tion of arguments, • 1 isec labore." and, by arguing this ease at gitater length, he said he might, perhaps, be obliged to add. ** breurinfeo." Henry Bunbury had made the admissions ip utter ignorance of the deed which was afterwards discovered by Mr. Holmes, and hoped the Court would allow him to amend that ad mission. He then moyed for leave to file a supplemental answer to amend the former answer filed in Court.—Hr. Baron °ARROW udd that be could not impute any culpable negligence to the de ;fendenes ; the perception of the tithes in litigation were in the Banbury family, and it was not by any means surprising that in AU*. Wilily a deed, Which referred to a matter which they could 'not deist of great Importance. should hare been overlooked. Ile thought the motion should be granted, with payment of the charge' of the replication and all subsequent costs. The bomb Oust BAROII and the other Judges coincided in this decision., and the motion was therefore granted. Nene of the new trlais (which were fixed for this day) came on to be beard, The Court adjourned about three o'clock. CONSISTORY COURT, FRIDAY, JAN. 27. r L;)ir Sir C. Rosirrsow.) TUN MOOT NCOtt THE MAIICNIONEIIII OF WEVINEATO THE ?,SAIIHEIS OT WESTMEATH. This suit, which was promoted by the Marchioness of %rest. attach against the Marquis, for a divorce upon the grounds of cycle" and adultery, was commenced during the last term, and 'upon its opening we endeavoured to lay before our readers what, from the voluminous nature of the evidence, was only an abridge ment of the cirenmstances connected with this curious and important ewe. The reading of the allegations having been concluded on the lost session of the last term, the cue was called on this day for MVO Elletn. be. Lusnimorow, on behalf of the Marcnioness of West. Reath, occopied the flours for more than three hours. lie said the ease had first been brought to the notice of the Court in 11121, 'when a suit for the restitution of conjugal rights was promoted by t baMarquis of tVestmeath against the Marchioness. The Learned Sioartsel thought that this statement involved considerations which ought materially to influence the decision of the Court, because it proved that Lady Westmeath was brought reluctantly into Court, and that It was not her lank that the unpleasant circumstances of the case had been laid before the public to the great injury of till parties, the principals as well as their relatives anti friends. The wffsirs of persons of elevated rank uniformly obtain publicity, and excite an attention which is not bestowed upon the affairs of persons in inferior stations, and if it was only foe this reason, great caution, consideration and circumspection should have been used b Lord W. before he determined to read the veil from transactions which every body must have wished had been kept secret. The prayer of Lord Westmeath was that Lady Westmeath should be restored to his ixiety, and again received in his house as site partner of his inlaid and bed. This desire of his Lordship proved that. the con_ duct of Lady Westmeath was irreproaehable, and that site was worthy to be taken again to her husband's heart. When Lord Wastmerth instituted the snit, hie only daughter was fourteen years of age. and yet he thought Lady W'estrulath was a fit person to have the care and management of his daughter. The question natotally arose whether Lord Westmeath really desiredto have his Wee' trite under hie reef, nr whether there was some motive not actually dialoged? Whatever Lord li'estrr,eath's motive our bent , the Court heWas sure would not lend its sanction to his obtsinfllk kr that to which in law and equity he was not entitled. l'his wod Itlbe an &bare of thepowee of the Court and not a lining use of treas undoolsielly true that a party who proved his mar. tier t nad a right to call upon his wife to return to cohabitation with him notelet she could show cause sufficient to debts the party noon trietemedf claimed. The party in the present COMO came forward to pretect'herself ftom a new cohabitation. Now, the pasty coming leeward a 4 aggressor was always held to be bound to sarictgr rules of evidence than when a party came into Court for self defence. In toe case of Mortimer v. Mortimer, which was a utit'brought by the wife for the restitution of eon)ugal rights, and detended by the naisband on the grounds of &clattery committed by the wife, the Court laid it clowii, that as the wife had been the =seer greater iodulgende should be shown to the hus hed .greeter Weight littiebed to the evidence produced for him. lu this matter lady Weenswith acted foe bee own defence, and not as the aggressor ; and the Marquis mustthank himself far the consequence of his oWn sets. Lady West meath pleaded that the alarquis was guilty of adultery aad cruelty, and in support of those charges, he (Dr. Inothinguen) ehould alt. stain from offering any observations which his duty to his client did net render imperatively necessary. He winild not endeavour to in. flame the ease, nor represent it even to its lull extent. It was stif &lent if he *showed that Lady Westmeath was entitled to the remedy she claimed, without painting his Lordship's conduct in the strongest colours. lint if he found that the Marquises Counsel thought proper to throw imputation upon the conduct or cha racter of the Slarchloness, he eheuld teke the liberty of retorting in such a manner as he conceived would meet the justice of the ease. The parties were married in 1812, and finally separated in 1819; he did not deem it necessary to detail all the particulate or their coha bitation. It was sufficient to point out the particular circuit). stances. The parties had cohabited at various pieces—in England, in Ireland, at Clonyn, in France, at the Alarquis of Salisbury's house at Hatfield, in London, at Bolton-row and Stratford-place, and in some other places. body Westmeath complained to Mr. Wood. Lord Westmeath's friend, of his violent conduct in 1815* Negotiation% far a deed of separation took place in 1817. The par. ties ceased to cohabit, though they resided in the same house from May 1818. and in June 1819 the final separation took place, since when the parties had never met. It was not until a year and a half after this separation that Lord Westmeath determined upon the ex pediency of reorder( to the Ecclesiastical Court foe redeem. It was not from any delicacy in instituting law proceedings, however, that hie Lordship had delayed. He made an effort before the lewd Chancellor to vocate the deed which he had executed, and to deprive Lady Westmeath of the (pecuniary provision which he had made for her. Net succeeding, however, in breaking his contract, and finding that his objects were not attainable in a Court of law, he at lan resorted to the •jurisdiction of that Court when everything elm had failed. It was clear that this suit had no other object than to reduce Lady Westmeath into hit power, and render her dependent for support on his bounty. It was a question whether the Court should entertain • case which was brought forward nn no other principle but because ether Courts did not think it justice to invalidate a legal claim. Certain it was, Lord Westmeath did not come forward in the most auspicious manner; there was no just motive enacted to hint. He stood upon the extreme point of law, which allows a husband to lulu upon his wife's cohabiting with him, and unite* he was strictly entitled to such a decision she Court would net support lf, in the murk of their former cohabitation, he had misconducted himself—if he had forget to observe his part of the sacred contract, it would be is strange 14w, or equally strange (luny, that would give him the benefit of a contract which he had violated. If the Court' could decide that Lady Westmeath should retnrn to cohabit with his Lordship, she would return not to his protection but to his violence end passion, and did not this justify her In refus. Mg to return to 'a repetition of such ill treatment ? The only re medy the Court could give was the means of a final and effectual separation ; and it was no less extranciinery than unwise of Lord Westmeath, after violating his marriage vow, to set up the elaim he had. If the Court considered that the deteneive charges of cruelty and adultery were supported by the evidence, Lady VVest meath was strictly entitled to the relief for which slue prayed. Her only mode of obtaining su ffi cient protection was to bring the cue under the cognizance of the Court, and all the fact! and einem stances of it under consideration. Ac to the charge of adultery he was only prepared to contend that it had been committed with two persons, Sarah Smith and Mary Brennan. Sandi Smith, it ap. peered, was in the ureice of the Marchioness in 1819. In Mush 1821, the Marquis lodged at the house of a Mrs. Windsor. where an occurrence was proved to have taken place, which could not be mentioned without itidignstion. Lord Weeuneath was then in the habit of receiving hie daughter with her governess every day. Subsequently he removed her from her ladyship's protection, and how should he designate such conduct as the removal of a daughter at seven years old from the cave and custody of her mother ? The high rank and character of Lady Westmeath should have saved her from the exercise of Ruch an authority. He who instituted a suit to regain his wife's society, and by that suit proclaimed her as fit to return to his roof, withdrew her infant daughter from bee peotec . don. However, that authority die law gave hies, and he availed himself of it, to deposit Lady Rosa at his lodgings in Portman. street. Sarah Smith was immediately established there as nursery maid, end the proof of a criminal intercourse between her and Lord %Vestmeatii depended not so much on any single transaction, but on the strange and uneccountable familiarly which exiced between the parties, and which was in no degree explained Mrs. Windsor first observed the familiar intercourse which took place In conversation between Lord Westmeath and ' Sarah Smith; and shortly after the latter came to the lodg ings, Mrs. Windsor was going to bed at two o'clock In the morning, when she heard voices in Lord ti enmeath's bed room, and distinguished his Lordship and Sarah Smith talking and laughing in a very familiar way. Mrs. Windsor did not hear Sarah Smith return to her bed-room that night t and her impres sion was, that a criminal intercourse was carried on between his Lordship and Sarah Smith. Had this been an insulated transnc• tion some doubt might exist, and the Court might considet some furtive* testimony necessary. This confirmatory testimony was supplied by the evidence that Sarah Smith visited his Lordship at various place; where he afterwards lodged. A circumstance which occurred in April, 1822, left no doubt as to the nature of the con nexion. Lord IVestineath then lodged at the house of a person named Wall, In Bury-street, Westminster. On one occasion his Lordship desired that when a woman came she should he shown up to him. In a short time afterwards Sarah Smith arrived, was ushered up to his Lordship, and'reinained with him for more than an hour. Looking at the relative rank of the parties, could any one say that this was the ordinary interroerse between a Marquis and his washerwoman? %Vas this traneaction answered because Sarah Smith's mother haul called on his Lordship for his foul clothed ? or could it be believed that such an intercourse was purely platonic, and related to nothing but neckcloths and stock. togs ? There should have been some mere rational excuse than the washerwoman. The Learned Gentleman next adverted to the evidence relating to Mary Brennan. A person named Bennett, a postilion in the service of Lord Westmeath, deposed that in March, 1112 - 2, his Lordship was at Clonyn, and desired the witness to go and fetch Mary Brennan, who had a child by a man named Wren, and that he (Lord W.) would give her a guinea. When Bennett acipainted Mary Brennan what Lord Westmeath , wanted' with her, she refused to come, and Bennett then suggested to his Lordship.that be should send hetword thathe desired her to come to him, that he might oblige Wren, who had seduced her, to merry her. This message being delivered to Mary Brennan. she came next morning, which chanced to he Sunday, to ("temp; had an in, terview with lard %Veetmeath and frequently emote, his beedship' afterwards. It was attempted to exemmt fur this transaction by the assertion that Miry Brennan mime to consult his Lordship in his magisterial capacity, and to get redress by law against her seducer, Wren. The jurisdiction of compelling persona who seduced ladies to marry them, Dr. Lushington apprehended, only belonged to Irish Magietrates; but he understood it was as inconsistent with Irish habitat's he knew it to be with English habits, for a Illegiti mate to dispense justice on Sunday morninge. The circumstances which he had stated he conceived were sufficient proof of the ailed ter,. It was a crime which required no aggravation nor admitted of no extenuation, because no aggravatine nor extenuation could prevent the party aggrieved from getting the redress claimed. Ile now came to the second charge, that of cruelty; and here it was only In to look back to the manner in which the parties were edu cated. There was a great difference between acts of violence com mitted by persons moving in an inferior station and acts of violence perpetrated by therm who had education to restrain their passions. There was no excuse fitr personal violence offered by a nobleman t o his wife. Whatever provocation may have been given, no gentleman could ever come 'Omani tosay that personal violence was justifiably inflicted by him on his wife. He did not charge Lord Westmeath with having offered malignant violence to Lady Westmeath, but his passions were so ungoverned and ungovernable, that he could not restrain himself even within the bounds of violent invective, but wreaked his passion on the person of an unprotected female. The moral guilt might he pester it' he had predestined Ruch violence, o but the danger to the injured party was the same, and the necessity of protection by no means diminished. As to the definition of legal nuelty, it was well laid down by lord Stilwell, in the case of Hol. den v. Holden. which was reported in she first vol. of Dr. Hag. lard's Reports. p. 458. Lord Stowell defined legal cruelty to be " any thing that leads to bodily harm ie a peril from which the wife must be protected." The Noble and Learned Lord went on to say that it was not necessary to determine from what the violence hail proceeded; it may be (said he) from turbulent passion not inenin patible with some degree of affection. It' the Court declined to in terfere where violence was committed only in one instance, it was because there was hope that such violence would not he repeated : but no blame of the wire could justify ferocity in the husband." Such were the doctrines laid down by Lord Stowell when presiding in that Court, but there was not a shadow of blame attached to Lady Westmeath. If upon several occasions roes violence had been perpetrated, general unkindness could oot aggravate nor ge neral kindness excuse. This view of the case would relieve the Court front considering many minute details. It would also relieve him (Dr. Lushington) from commenting upon any part of the evi dence which he conceived did not bear on that view of the subject he had taken. It enabled him to shut out the testimony of Lady Salisbury, which he by no means desired to impeach. but if this resolution was mad* use of by the Noble Marquis's Counsel to the detriment of his client, he (Dr. Lushington) would think himself at liberty to enter into it fully. Dr. JEN If ER was desirous that Dr. luahington should open his case without those frequent reservations. He should make such use of the evidence as in his judgment was expedient fie his client. Dr. LITIIIINOTON resumed. He would. use his own discretion with respect to the conduct of his arse. He did not think it necee. sary to answer objections which might not be made, and to amid - pate a course which the opposite Counsel perhaps did not mean to pursue. If every word of the evitreeee produced tor Lord %Vest meath was taken as proved. it could not negative the charge of ' cruelty. The Counsel for the Marquis at the most multi only say there was provocation ; thee never would contend that there was justification. That Lord Westmeath had ea far forgot himself its to touch with violence his young and noble wife he had himself ad mitted, both by hie letters and by verbal declarations. The evi dence of Sarah Wlienzie convicted lord IVeautieath of extreme cruelty. He left the Marchinneas wanting money, called bar a d— b—, and beat and kicked tier. .1)n one omission, when Lady Westmeatb charged him with kicking her in the side, be answered. "Emily, you provoked me to it." On another occasion, at Leinster House, after promising not ne ben her, lie struck her Ladyship on the breast, and hurt her to much that. he thought it necessary to apply to Dr. Crampton, who ordered a lotion, which was applied for several days, during which period there was consi. derable alarm lest the hurt should terminate in emcee. blr.Wood, the intimate friend of Lord Westmeath, who hail been callid upon by his Idordeliip to interfere in order to procure a reconciliation, de. THE BRITISH PRESS. • posed that Lord Westmeath had uniformly aelmovelodged his mis conduct himself. In IBIS Lady West:need' determined to procure a legal separation ; she then demelhed the gross cruelty with which she had been treated, which ( mid Westmeath lolly admitted ; and on all occasions the witness swims he expressed Ms contrition, sad desire to make amends. At Oranvilliere, upon some slight provoca tion. Lord Westmeath inflicted a severe blow en Lady West ' aseath, saying , at the same time, " Oo to li—; I wish l haelfeettv seen you.' This circutus'ance took place 111 the 'presence of Miss Wood, who deposed to the fast. Janet Serves, the waiting-maid of Lady Westmeath, ohm deposed to thistrensacmin. Dr. Limit ington next referred to the negotiations which took Mace pending the execution of the deed of settlement in May, 11418. In these negotiations, lie said Lord Westmeath mails the most humiliating confessions, and fully (Omitted the violence and erudty of hie con duct towards Lady Westmeath, which justified her accusatious. lie commented strongly on the costive taken by Lord Westmeath, in destroying the instrument which he had exeruted, and in vim' latinq the terms of the deed of settlement sot:resiliently executed by him. The Learned Counsel here adverted to the evidence of Mr. Sheldon and Mr. Stephens. Lord IVestmeath's eouhdantiol advisers, which he insisted corroborated, in the most conclusive manner, the depositions of the witnesses toe Lady Westmeath. The admission of Lord W. to witnesses, and admissions of misconduct, contained in his own letters, were demonstrative testimony. Lord W. described himself as the victim of misery and remorse; he expressed himself ns x person who had cotnmitted outrages which left on his conscience die sting of guilt. in these letters Ilia Lord ship alluded in her hadyehip, not as a person who had any share in the blame of those unfortunate traneartirmis, but as one who was suffering innocently arid unjuetly from his own misconduct. loose of his loam addressed to Lady At'esimeath, he wrote, " I know you can never lose your self.mteem ; for it you have been intern. pirate, my folly and unworrhineto have tempted you to it." Lord 11'estmeath was then filled with repentance and deep remorse; but his subsequent ormdoct proved that he was incapable of executing his good intention. lie was like a ship that had lost its rudder, and was driven by every gust of passion. In conclusion, the Learned Counsel contended that there was no evidence adduced on the other side which could he put in competition with that pre sented on behalf of Lady Westmeath. As to the evidence of Lady Salisbury, it (lid not relate to the iinportant circumstances upon which the Court was called to Mum' its derision. Lady Sa lishure had a very precise memory as to smite facts, but en equally treacherous one as to inherit ; but as related to this case, it mattered not whether Lntly S.'s evidence was false or true. The only evidence produced to impeach Lady Wesurneath's witnesses was that of Mr. Giles, who deposed that he met Miss Wood at a bail at Lady Ito binolon's in Albemarle -street, in 1818. and that upon some allusion which took place to the suit then pendime between land and Lally Westmeath, Alien Wood, in reference to Lely Westmeath. said " She an get what she pleases from Lord Weatnieath by bully. ing." Miss Wood denied having used the expression attributed to her by Mr. Giles, and tmon this denial Mss Wood's testimony was impeached. The Learned Counsel said he had LOW gone through what he considered the important features of the case, and 'he hal nn hesitatioo in calling with confidence for the judgment of the Court in favour of 'Lady I%'estmeails Whether he referred to the charge of adultery or to that of cruelty. he felt not the slightest doubt that the Court must pronouncethe sentence prayed for. The features of excessive violence had been fully established, and in no point of view in which Lord Westmeath's Counsel could put the cue, would the claim nf Lady Westmeath to the protection she desired, be destroyea, or even diminished. Dr. J. ADDAMS followed Dr. Lushington at the same side, and at very considerable length. quoting various passages contained in the allegations which had been put in on behalt of Lady West meath. In conensinn he submitted that the charge of cruelty had been proved by unexceptionable witnesses; and lithe Court should be of opinion that the charge of adultery had not been peeved, it weighed not a feather against the claim of Lady Westmeath to the protection for which else prayed, and to which he contended she was justly entitled. The Learned Gentleman did not conclude his address until four o'clock, when.— _ _ . Sir C. ROBINSON said he would hear the arguments of Lord Westmeath's Counsel on the next Court day. JENNER and Pm LLI,IOIIE will be heard for Lord West meath against the glivurce. [lt is perhaps unnecea•uy to observe, that the statement we have given above is in a great deree es-pay lc, Lady IVestrucatit's Counsel only having been heard.] POLICE. 31ARLBORMIGH-STREEET. Amongst the dieordcrlies brought from St. George's watch-hone yesterday was a Captain Fairfield, an Irish gentlenum, residing at the Bedford Hotel. Covent-garden, who was charged with having committed an assault upon *gentleman of the name of Harrington, arising out of a mistake. The constable, after he had taken the charge, admitted Captain Fairfield to hail on his own recognizance*. to appear at the office on the following day, but at the appointed time no Captain made his appearance, when Mr. Conant per. mined the charge in stand over whilst he investigated other watch house charges ; which being finished. still no Captain Fairfield was to be found in attendance. About two o'clock Mr. Harnnguin, an elderly gentleman, entered the office, having a plaster on his fore head, and the inside of hishat discoloured with blood. Mr. Harrin gton stated that he had no wish to prefer any charge against the Captain, as the assault had arisen entirely from mistake. Upon being s ited: by Mr. Conant how it occurred, Mr. Harrington mated that he, in company with two young friends, wan returning from the Theatre on Thursday night, when in passing down a street he was attracted by • noise on reaching the spot be discovered that Captain Fairfield was having an alteration with some girls of the town, whom its charged with robbing him.

The Captain, who at the time was very much inebriated, on being taken to the wstchhouse came to his recol lection, and apologised for his conduct, as it was done under a wrong impressi n he did not wish to prefer any charge against ihim.

Price and Co. to whom h e was foreman, upon being sworn, stated that hewn acquainted with Mr. Maynard, who, a short time since. kept the tap of the Talbot Inn, iti the Borough. In the month of January, last year, he had dealings with the defendant, who purchased a pocket of hops from him, and paid the sum of 71. Ithi. for them. The witness said the defendant must have well known at the time that he (Foy) Lad no authority to dispose of the hops out of his employers' warehouse, and therefore must have been aware that he was purchasing stolen property. The pocket of hops in question was lest by witness to the defendant's premises front the Retfcross-street warehouse. It was delivered to a man named Martin, a porter in the service of the defendant, before eight o'clock in the morning. A person named Hattenbuty assisted him in delivering the pocket of hops to May nard, which was marked " Masters, Valding, Kent." In a month afterwards. he (Foy) sold another pocket of hops at the same price to the defendant, which was sent from the warehouse by Jones, a hop porter. This pocket wrs marked " Lenett and Co.' Soon after this transaction the defendant purchased another pocket of hops from him, which was delivered by the same man that car ried the List to the defendant at the Talbot, and subsequently the defendant made another purchase of him of a quantity of the same article, called an end of hops, which was conveyed by the man Martin, on a truck, from Messrs. Prices' warehouse, to the de fendant's residence is Westminster. 31r, Thomas, one of the partners in the firm that had been robbed, WAS here examined by Mr. ANDREWS, from which it ap peared that Foy, who was formerly their foreman, had a discretion ary power in delivering nut hope from the warehouses, and that no check was kept upon him ; therefore it wse impossible to detect, even at the time of taking stock, that he WAR robbing him, as he was the person who did that duty, waisted by a man named Eve, whose business it wan to insrk down the numbers culled out by the foreman. fly this mode of doing business, Mr. Anthem' observed, Foy made false entries of the hops that he had disposed of to diferent people- and not in the warehouse at the time he called out the numbers marked down by his assistant Eve. • Mr. tu.ssilir RS elqWeßleti his astonishment that the firm con_ ducted their business in such an ettraoydinary , manner, which lett them completely open to the plunder of dishonest servants. In reply to a question by Mr. ANDIEwa, the witness admitted that•in cue Alr.Alaynard, or any other person,wbo wanted hops went to their warehouse, and poroliatied a pocket from Foy, and subse quently paid for them at the counting-house, the money would be received, and the transaction would hare been considered all tight by the firm. • Mr. ANDREWt said that it was a moat delightid 101ititi4011 fait a shift such se Foy to plunder them; flesh and blood such u his could not mist that temptation, and reapectable men like the de fendants were to be examined upon a most Serious charge, on the oath of such an individual. Whin stated that he carried a pocket of hops from Foy to the defendsat's premises. Jones also stated that he took hops from Messrs. Prim'a sannebantie, by order of Foy, to the T811747t Inn. After some discussion, the Magistrates decided that the de. Ardent should enter into his 0%11 recognizance. the sum of 1001. and two sureties of MIL each, to appear at the next assizes. The charge, against the two other defendants. How and Nut. ting. were next investigated, when they were also held to bail to appear at the Aanses to answer the misdemeanor. CORONERS' INQUESTS. An Inquisition was last evening taken before TUOMAC Thaws, Esq. at the George pnblic.house, George-court. Adelphi. on the body of Mr. Leonard Parkinson, a gentleman of fortune, who ter minated his existence by suicide. Mr. Thomas Hunt. surgeon, of 894), Strand, stated that. at about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, he was celled in to attend the deceased. whom he found lying on the floor before the fire, at his takings in George-street, Adelphi. Ile was then dead, and ap peared to hare been so about an hour. There was a great quantity of blood on the floor, end on examining his person witness observed no less than three wounds in hia throat; two of them were superti but the other was a very serious one of about two inches in length, and of very considerable depth. The cisro'id artery was divided, and the wounds were the cause of death. A small knife was found !yin ty his side. Bridget Ogle, *errant to Mr. Clerk, at whose house the deceased raided, stated that she had seen the deceased repeatedly; the last time was on Thursday morning, hut she observed nothing particular in his manner. In the afternoon she bad occesimi to go up stairs, when she heard the deceased walking about die room, and after wards heard bin) moaning. She informed her master of the Mr eminence, and they both knocked at his room door, but could obtain no answer. A carpenter was t ent for, and th e door broken open, when the deceased was found lying on the floor covered with blood. He was then quite dead. Witnesa was to much alarmed that she was obliged to leave the room immediately. Mr. Theophilus Clarke, the person in whose house the deceased lodged, stated that he had lived with him about four years: he was a tut of very retired habits ' and appeared at times to be insane. For the last three months lie had kept very irregular hours, hut on Sunday evening last he came home very early, and on Monday morning witness had a long conversation with him when he said " I intend to keep better hours than I used to do; I find it will not do; when I have been drinking freely it affects my head, anti I do not know what lam about." On Thursday afternoon, in comm . quenue of inihntiation received front the last witness, deponent caused the door to be broken in, when the deceased was found lying on the floor covered with blond. The door was bolted on the inside. A few hours before he inquired for his keys, and appeared con fused on the subject. He must afterwards have found them, as they were hanging from a trunk, on the door being broken open. Teesdale, a gentleman whose sleeping.room was contiguous to that of the deceased. stated that during the last two years he had repeatedly heard hint pacing about the room during the night, and exclaiming, " what have I dune," and at other tones talking about a NOW. hlr William Scattergood, lanillord of the Salisbury Arms, Strand, stated that the deceased was in the habit of dining at his house. lye appeared to be averse to being l e ft alone, an d was re peatedly heard to moan when so left. He complained of having last a great deal of money. In explanation of this tact, Mr. Clarke stated, that the deceased had lately mold out of the Eughsh funds, and purchased Spanish Bonds. Verdict—" Insanity." CHILD MVllDED.—Yesterday evening an inquisition was taken at the Elephant public-house, in the Kingsland•road, before J. W. Cowin, Es q. the Coroner. and a respectable Jury, on view of the body of a male infant, which had been discovered on Wednesday uuder circumstances strongly indicative of its death having been occasioned by unfair means. Various rumours were in cireulation as to who were its parents, and the character, if not the life, of one young female in particular was near falling a sacrifice to the rash testimony of one of the witnesses. As there was every reason to believe the child wan born alive, the Jury returned *verdict of " Wilful 3lurder against some person or persons unknown." On Thursday evening an inquest wail held at the Dorset Arms. near Stockwell-green, before R CARTER, Esq. and a respettable jury, touching the death of Thomas Femiough Bristow, Esq. who put a period to his existence at an early hour the preceding morning. 111 r. John Farley said, I have known lilt. Bristow several years. For several nights preceding the unfortunate event I came up to sleep at the deceased's house. On Tuestuty evening I staid in his company until eleven, when he went to bed: A little after eight o'clock the following morning a young lady who resides in the house came to my room-door in great alarm and awoke me. 1 Un derstood her to say, "Good God, come up, Mr. Bristow is ins I immediately jumped up, and ran up stairs to his bed-room ; on examining !um as he was lying In bed, I perceived that his throat was cut. He was then quite cold and dead. I believe that he had committed the rash act with a razor, for on turning down the bed clothes I found one lying in the bed, having marks of blood upon it. I have observed him latterly labouring under greet depression of spirits. Recently any little difficulties which arose in his affairs, that meet men would have considered mere trifles, he was inclined to view as Eiricus evils, and even went so far as to conceive them calculated to produce his rein. I knew his resources. and deemed those things which troubled him so exceedingly as of no moment. Me s wis a inset of considerable property. Ile has been in a desponding way some time, especially . detring•the last ten days or a fortnight. The night preceding the fatal act, Newell as several others, with the exception of one evening, as I have already mentioned, I read prayers to him. He was, I believe, 59 years of age. The Jury, after hearing the evidence of the surgeon who at tended the deceased, returned their verdict--" That the deceased destroyed himself, bringer unsound Mind at the time." SPoRTING INTELLIGENCE. FOOT RACE YESTF.III)AY ON SUN - BURY Costmorr.—A foot race for .10 sovereigns a•side of one mile, which has excited consi derable interest in the sporting world, took place yesterday on Sun bury Canine:el between Jack Randall's man. Barry, front Lanca shire, anti a protege of flea Burn, from Yorkshire, named Brown, whofounde his claim,' to patronrge on having defeated the cafe bratedilalton in a four.mile race at Leeds. Barry who has been in regular trainirg at Kensington, arrived at the White Hart, Hampton, on Thursday night in good condition, while Brown, who at been at Hampton for some der', from over confidence in himself, has been very negligentin his exercises, so that when he came to the scratch, his inferior condition was apparent to' all. The betting was brisk, and so confident was Burn of his man that he laid 15 to 5 on him, and several others of the same party followed hint, but when they stripped the odds fell, and Barry's backers bee.ime eager to take then). Precisely at one the men ap peared on the ground, in white silk breeches and light shoes, end at a preconcerted signal, they started. For the first half mile they came abreast, running with such great truth that their arms were exactly parallel, but at this part of the race, Barry seeing that his antagonist was getting distressed, doubled himself i up, let loose, and won his match in true sporting style by 40 or 50 yards, with great case, covering his mile in 4 minutes and 48 se conds: and it was evident to many that lie not only came in fresh, but was capable of accomplishing a greater distance at increased speed. lle has proved himself a finished very and scientific runner, and will no doubt be a poser to Metcalfe, against whom he is matched. Brown, on the other hand, is very awkward, and appears to be only fitted for a long day ; at present he is much too fleshy. The company was not very numerous, owing to an un. founded rumour that it would be a cross, which certainly was not the case, the match being made on the square, and so finished. There was a strong muster of the fancy, including Cannon, Bum, Oliver, Holt, Randall, Hudson, /ex. Uncle Ben was so thoroughly ehegrined at the termination of the race, that he al' erwanis sacri ficed very liberally to the Jolly God; and when our reporter left • here was every promise of a mill amongst the nobs of the fancy. DREADFUL CATASTROPHE. IN GRAY'S-INN- LANE. Ite regret to state that the accident we mentioned yes terday is attended with the loss of two more lives than were at first anticipated. From the time of extricating the dead body of the unfortunate Clancy from the ruins of Thursday evening, a number of the labouring Irish busily employed themselves in digging for the other bodies that were feared ro be still underneath, although there were some doubts if there were any remaining. This melan choly task was performed before the relatives and friends of some Irish labourers who hail not been seen since the accident, ar.d after digging till four o'clock yesterday ' morning, they succeeded in finding a fine boy, about thir teen years old, under an immense quantity of the rubbish, which bad not entirely fallen on him, some of it being sup ported by a heavy beam. Ile was quite warm, but the , blood was issuing copisusly from his head and nostrils.' The unfortunate led, who was son to the poor man Clancy, was carried to the workhouse in Little Gray's Inn-lane, where every surgical aid was afforded, but he died shortly after. Soon after this, the labourers in another part of the ruins succeeded in finding another body, quite dead, under about ten feet of rubbish. His scull was so dread fully fractured, and his features so disfigured, that no per son at first could identify him but in a short time his unhappy wife, who is in the last stage of pregnancy, arrived on the spot, and identified the body to be that of Jeremiah Healey, s young Hibernian, about twenty-one years of age, who had been only from Ireland about two years, and had been married about a twelvemonth. The men are still digging, as it is feared there are more bodies under the rubbish : The Inquest is fixed fot thin day, at two o'clock. Soap Veld • , . ~ MARKETS.
