Robinson, a Machine-maker, late in the service of Messrs. Ramsbotham and Swaines, of Bra.'ford, *as tried at York Castle, before Sir RO- GgARAM, knight, on a charge of wilfully setting fire to two Worsted Mills be lo nging to his said employers. on Sunday, the 25th of March last, whereby the same were burnt down and de stroyed. . - . 'l se following is a summary of the evidence for the progecution ;—The Prisoner came to the mill on the morning of the day the fire took place at seven o'clock, with a bundle rolled under his smock-frock, and broke open the door of a work shop adjoining the mill, as was supposed, for the purpose of depositing his bundle in his tool-hos. The fire took place in the garret of the old mill be twren twelve and one o'clock at noon, when the wind was very boistrons, and, at its commencement, was distinelly observed by several witnesses to be in both ends of the garret at the same time, hefore there was any appearance of lire in the middi.• ; a circumstance, which, from the d:. t; . a of the wind, could not be the result of accident. The Prisoner was seen to come out of the garret a very little time before the fire was discovered, and, during the time he was there, a noise was heard by several witnesses proceeding from Cie gar,'., as it some one was rolling something along the garret floor. When the alarm of foe was first given, the Prisoner said to another workman, e l was with him in the shop, D—n them, they arc only makieg game of us, never mind them." There is a ware house nearly adjoining the old mill (in Nvlii.:ll the proprietors had a large quantity of goods deposited), which -as connected ssith the old mill by two pieces of timber, and which was in imminent dan ger of being consumed. Mr. Karnsbotham ordered the Prisoner to cut these timbers with a saw to de stroy the communication between the mill and Warn house, which he refused to do, and threw the saw wide violence at Mr. Ramsbotham. After this, and whil.,t the tire was raging with great violence, the Prisoner went to a public-house, and was found there by the landlord drinking (the landlord is a Volunteer, and had gone home from the mill to fetch his &clock ), when he asked him why he was not at the mill? The Prisoner said ; " l)—n the mill, neither you nor I shall have any thanks for going to it, I'll not come rear it." Another, and very strong circumstance, was the finding of some pitch among the ruins of the old mill ; a substance which had never been seen there before. The appren tice of Mr. Janes Marshail, ironmonger, in Brad ford, said, he had sold four pounds of pitch on the Saturday before the fire, to one or two little girls, the daughters of the Prisoner; but, from motives of tenderness, the children were not Inought forward to swear to this. One of the witnesses, wh., lives in Mr. Ramsbotham's house, and who was one of the first who discovered the fire, swore, that the first smell, which he received, was that of pitch. Several other circumstances, relative to the Pri soner's concha& during the fire, too numerous to dz tail here, came out in evidence. The Poisoner, in his defence, endeavoured to prove that the fire broke out in the Engine-house, and that it was set on fire with a candle by some boy. who had been working there. This was clearly disproved by the boys themselves, by several other witnesses, and by mal.y corroborating circum stances. His Lordship then proceed-d to sum up the evi dence, which he did with great minuteness and pre cision, and to observe upon it to the Jury:—this occupied more than two hours. I-le said, that he left the whole of that complicated case to their judgment ; that it formed a chain of circumstances from which they were to draw a conclusion ; that if they believed the evidence of the Prosecutors, and there appeared to his mind nothing to contra dia it, they must find the Prisoner guilty; and if any credit was due to the evidence on behalf of the Prisoner, it seemed to him to lead to a belief in im probabilities. For if the fire did break out in the engine -house, as was attempted to be proved, the Prisoner must have passed from the garret through the engine-house in the midst of the flames, and two of the boys, who were there working, must have been burned to death. hat, indeed, nothing appeared to him to come out on the part of the Prisoner to weaken the evidence on behalf of the prosecution, or to account for and explain the ex traordinary condo& of the Prisoner, which seemed to him to have been most wicked and malicious. His Lordship further observed. that if they found the Prisoner guilty, he must inevitably suffer death; lc I the statute had left no discretionary power with the Jude ; that mercy did not belong to them, nor were they to be influenced by any motives of humanity towards the Priso4er to acquit him, if they, upon the circumstances of the case, believed in his guilt. This important trial lasted twelve hours, and was most ably conduBed by Mr. TorriNG. Counsel for the Prosecutors ; and the Jury having withdrawn, afterwards delivered a verdiet of—Ae gis/fed, at the Judge's lodgings. At a special assembly of the Corporation of Nor. wich, held on Thursday last, Mr. JA M CS WA vrs was discharged from serving the office of Sheriff, on pay. ing the usual fine. The letter was then sent to Mt. COT TON WS I ON T, citizen and comber, w!. o returned the following verbal answer: " that, as he had never ate or drank at the earn ce of the Corporation, he should neither pay the fine nor serve the office." Previous to Brig.-General SHERBROOKE leaving Holt, he invited the principal families of the neigh bourhood to a &lewd, which took place at Cromer on Saturday last—the invitations were politely ex tended to all the visitors at this fashionable bathing place. Arrangements had been made for accom modating the company under An awning on the cliff, and the (lancing was to have been on the platfi(rm of the great battery, but the we i-her proving unfa vourable, the company assemble . about noon at the New Inn. About :(0 ladies :tud gentlemen were present, amongst whom were-- The Hon. ex,lowel and Mrs. Mx ! tnald, Sir .faced, :n4 Ladv Aidley, Sir Edwant and Laity R Mijor wain in.d Mrs. Nfontagn.., Mr. and t! •i.
