LAW INTE7.LIGENCE. COURT OF ZING'S BENCH, BJammer, MAT I VARIER v. DAILEY. This was an action for seducing the plaintiff's daughter, whereby he lost her services. At the trial before Mr. Baron Ilullock at the last Asa MI for Lincoln, the Jury found their verdict for the plaintiff, damages 300!. Mr. Itranz a now moved for a rule to shew cause why the judg. mem should not be arrested, on the tround that the form of action had been misconceived. The deciaratton professed to be in trespass, which was the proper form of action fur seducing the plaintiff's daughter, but it omitted the usual and necessary words, " with force and arms," and consequently it became an action on the case, and could not be supported. The Lulu Cum. JUSTICE thought thst t r verdict of the Jury cured the objection as to the omission of Om words, '• with force and amts." If the objection was at all available, is ought to have been taken advantage of on demurrer. Mr. READER then submitted that be was emit:ed to move for a bonnie. Mr. Justice BAT LE v thought not. Ilia Lordship mentioned a cascdocided by Lord Alvanley, which was directly against the ob. jeetion, shewing that It was cured by the verdict. 34. Justice Hot.torD cone Rude refused. WILLIAM/ V. ivy:tits. This was an action of insult and false imprisonment. The de fendant justified, that he being • emu:table, had taken the plain. tiff into custody whilst in the act of disturbing a congiegatinn in the exercise of divine worship. The plaintiff now assigned that the defendant had been guilty of excess, and had detained him in custody for a longer time than was necessary. To this the de fendant pleaded the general issue. At the trial, before the Lord Chief Baron, at the last Assizes for Hertford/tithe, it appeared in evidence that the plaintiff, being an attorney, had entered the pa fish church in question on a Sunday, and in the interval between the communion service and sermon, rose in a pew, and read a written notice of &parish meeting for die appointment of electing overseen of the poor. At this time the clergyman had just read the contrail pion service, and was in the act of pasting to the pulpit, when he gave orders to the defendant to remove the plaintiff hem the church. The plaintiff was taken into custody, and detained at • neighbour- Inc inn till a short time after the church service was over, and thea liberated. It was contended at the trial that the conduct of the de fendant was justifiable in point of law t but the Lord Chief Baron held, that supposing the defendant was justified in removing the plaintiff from the church, yet he was guilty of excess in detaining him in custody after the service was over and therefore the action was maintainable. The case went to the Jury, and they found for the plaintiff—Damages, One Farthing. Mr. .Anot. en us now moved for a rule Nisi to enter • nonsuit, on the ground that the action could not be supported. Ile Called the attention of the Court to the statute Ist Mary, and to the Tole ration Act respectively. The first was peened ler the purpoee . of prnterthig clergymen in the discharge of their ministry, and un posed certain penalties upon persons who should wilfully, malici ously, and contemptuously enter a church or chapel for the purpose of disturbing a minister in his sacred office. The second was passed in order to protect congregations from disturbance when engaged in Divine Worship. Under either of these statutes it was quite clear, be submitted, that the plaintiff having be:n guilty either of dis turbing the minister or the congregation, the defendant was justi fiable in removing him from the church, and detaining him in custody. The ('cart were, however, clearly of opinion that the conduct of the delentltht was not justifiable under either of the Acts referred to. As yi the first, it crust appals-distinctly that the entrance into the church was for the purpose of wilfully, maliciously, and con temptuously molesting the minister, Wore the party could be brought within die penalties. Here it did not appear that the plain tiff had any such purpose, =that the minister himself was molested. The act complained of took place in the interval between the com munion service and the sermon, when parish notices were usually read, and there tons no evidence that the minister bad been, in fact, disturbed. Probably the condect of the plaintiff wis not coniiitent with the decorum which ought to prevail in so sacred a place as the parish church, but still the case was not within the statute of Mary. then as to the Toleration Act, that was made in aid elf the eccle siastical law, for the preservation of decorum, and authorised the apprehension of a party, in order: to take him before a Justice of the Peace, to be dealt with according to law t but the conduce of the plaintiff was matter of ecclesiastical cognmance, independendy of that statute. If the plaintiff had misbehaved himself by di=erteiz the congregation, or molesting the clergyman, he might be or he might have been detained and taken before a justice • but the latter course had not been adopted. The plaintiff hind beendetained after the church service was over, and then discharged. The vet , diet of the Jury was therefore right in point of law. Rule refused. TIIE STAFFORD PEERAGE. THE ZING V. RICHARD FFFFF ORD COMER. Thus was an indictment for a conspiracy. The defendant a misnomer In abatement, and gave his aurae es Bum &c. Last term the prosecutor, Sir George Joiodosloon, am moved to quash the plea, for not setting out the defendant's game of peerage and deducing his pedigrees The Court on dui deaden refused to quash the plea, and then put the prooecutor ft denier. Since then the prosecutor bad demurred accordingly, end now— Mr. CAM/BELL moved, en behalf the defendant, for leave to amend his plea, by setting out the Act of Parliament of 2 Edw. VI. by which the blood of Henry, sou of the Duke of Diesklngbien (attainted of high treason in the reign of Hen. VIII.) was restored by the title of Baron demand, and detlucin his pedigree from that nobleman, from N Alm ma _basin Tbe prose cener4 Sit O. JerdsabooNtiiiliiiihio lAN= who was attainted of Ingo neneen, for basing bens in the Popish Plot, in the reign of Charles the Second, end there fore the defendant's title was preferable to that of the . preeeentar. The defendant would have no difficulty in deducing his pedigree "Prom Henry, Lord Stafford. and setting out the Act of Parliament by which that Nobleman's blood was restored ; and therefore It was to be hoped that the Court would not allow thedefendant to amend his plea in these particulars. In civil cases it certainly was not the practice to allow the party . to amend a plea in abatement, because in those eases a limited tune is given to the party to plead, but in criminal cases the same reason did not apply. The Loan Cam? Just . ice—There has already been a con viction of one defendant upon this very Indictment. Alt. Ca le FIE Lt.—But that cannot prejudice this defendant. The LORD CatEr JUIIT IC r —Hut if we allow this defendant to amend, it may subject the prosecutor to the grievous expense of another trial. Mr. Citurarty—Supposing the Court decides against the de fendant upon his resent plea, still there must be a second trial, be eline! the Judgment will he t rspowdewe ouster. The Loin CHIEF .1 rs•rte;L—ls there any instance to be found in which the Court allowed a plea in abatement to be amended ? Mr. CAM admitted that tie could End none, but sub. witted that it was very reasonable to allow an amendment in this can•. Mr. Justice DATIL r- 7 111ere is a proper form for the defendant to try his right to the ti mffoM Peerage. If he does not chute tun. sun to that tribunal, why are we to assist him in trying his right in this collateral manner ?. . . . . Mr. l'axrat Lt. said, that the defendant's claim would ulti mately be brought before that tribunal, but in the mean time, he contended that the defendant had a right to be tried on this indict 'ment by his proper title. Peers had peculiar privileges and were entitled to great favour. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—The defendant must be tried by a Jury ; he has no right to be tried by his Peers, supposing him entitled to the peerage. 111 r. CANTOL'LL still urged that the defendant ought to amend his plea. No time had been lost ; and the record had been made up as quickly as it could, by the course and practice of the Court. The LOUD CHIEF JUSTIEE.--.11 plea in abatement is a pies for delay, And the Court never allot* such a plea any e ment. In this, as in ordinary cases of misdemeanour:T=l: fondant ben Peetvhe is still to be tried by a Jury, and not by his Peers. No instance has been cited in which the Court has amended a plea of this kind ; and as this plea is merely for delay, we shall not establish a precedent by granting this application. Mr. Justice ilarLer.--One reason for rehiring it is, that the prosecutor has already been put to the ezpcnse of one trial, and there will be two trials instead of one. Mr. Justice Hocaorn thought, that as the plea pleaded was quite beside the merits of the case, no indulgence ought to be given. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALL had left dee Cwt. Rule refused. lITiNIC V. tARIINS.

Mills, under the before-mentioned reservations. Capt. Mills sailed in the Minerva, his appointment having been confirmed, and Capt. Richardson sailed in the Marquis of Ely. Capt. AI. died in the prosecution of the third voyage, which was concluded under the com mand of Capt. Probyn. Capt. Richardson's voyage in the Mar. I guess of Ely had been very unfortunate, and on his return to this country he was made a bankrupt. After Captain 11l ills's death, he applied to the defendant to be re-appointed to the Minerva, but was refused, and the present action was instituted to recover damages sustained by the plaintiff in consequence of that refusal. The Jury had returned a verdict for the plaintiff; damages 7,5001. Mr. Sergeant PELL now moved to set that verdict aside, and to have a new trial or enter a nonsuit, on three grounds--first, that by a by-law of the East India Company, it was rode illegal for any Captain or Commander of a vessel in the **rite of the Company to sell or assign, for any va:ttable consideration whatever, his right to the command of the ve..vcl in which he was employed ; secondly, that the agreement had been given up by the plaintiff, on the defendant's obtaining the alteration of the destination of the Marquis of Ely, which had been done for the plaintiff's benefit, and by which the defend a nt incurred a heavy expense; and thirdly, that the Jury had given excessive damages, inasmuch as they had expressly adculatei their damages on the injury alleged to have been sustained by the plaintiff on account of t!. loss of two voyages, when it was clear from the evidence that at the time of the Minerva's returning to this country, and the death of Capt. Mills, but one voyace remained to be performed. The Court granted a rule to 'thew cause why a new trial should rot be granted, but refused the rule for a nonsuit. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, SATURDAY, MAY 8. In the course of a cause which involved no matter of any inverts' whatever, the proceedings having been slightly interrupted by a conversational discussion arneng the Gentlemen engaged on both sides, the Chief Justice expressed a wish that such a practice might be avoided in tuture. A short time afterwards, Mr. Comyn har ing interrupted Mr. Sergeant °Delon in one of his statements by making some remarks, which canted a reply from the Learned Ser geant, the Chief Justice again interfered, and said " Mr. Cornell, in the Court with which you and have been acquainted for the fast fire years, a great deal of good has Arisen by avoiding these inter ruptions and discussions. hope the peactice of that Court will prevail here, and, as far as I am concerned, it certainly shall ; we shall then get through business in a much quicker and better way." lIICHARDSOX V. MELLISH. This was an action brought to recover damages for the breach of an agreement. Theme was tried before Lord Rifted and a spe. cial Jury. in London. when it appeared that the plaintilf was the commander of the ship Minerva, which had been purchased by the defendant from 31easni. Smith and Timbrell, who had pre viously entered into a eontrect with the East India Company, by which the vessel was engaged for MA voyages to the Indies. At the time of the purchase, four of these voyages were unper formed, and Mr. 3lellish wishing to assist a nephew of his, Capt.

BLAIIPHEMous Woils.—Saturday Witham Campion, who was the Jay before apweirended upon & warrant, obtained against him by the Solicitor fur the Treasury. for selling Paine's Age of Reason and Palnicr's Principles of Nature., was brought before Alderman Toon!. . . . The Solicitor for the Treasury attended during the examination. Thomas Drummond., of No. 3tl, Lisson-grove, a Bow-street papol, stated that on Wednesday, the itch inst., he went to No. 04, Fleet-strect, over the door of which Carlile's name was written. Witness asked for Palmer's Principles of Nolan., which was im mediately served to him by the defendant. Witness then asked for Paint's Age of Itraeon which was also readily handed to him. For the first lie paid Ys. :end for the last he paid Is. The defen dant told him, that if he would take half a dozen copies a discount of 25 per cent. should be allowed. Mr. Litchfield, a gentleman who holds a situation in the Trea sury, at the request of the Solicitor, read several passages from Purse's Age of Henson, to prove that the work was a blasphemous libel, He believed those passages to contain profane and impious libels against the Christian religion. Cassisle had been convicted of selling copies of the same. Defendant.—Allow me to ask you by what principles you prove those pages to be blasphemous libels, and what is a bLumbemous IVstness.—l shall answer you willingly. I conceive a denial of the divinity of Christ, and calling Christ an impostor, is blasphemy. Defendant.—Very good, sir; but where do you find these things In Paine ? _ _ _ Witness.—All through the work the same spirit of disbelief and contempt is exhibited . It is impossible not to see it in every page. Defendant.—Well; bat upon what principle do you say that the books are blasphemous? Witness.—l have already told you what I understand by blu r/Menden L—A ye, aye, you judge rather from what has already been said upon the subject in Courts of Justice, than from your own unprejudiced impression. Altiesruan ?none ordered the defendant to find bail to answer the ormee, himself in the mum of LIW. and two sureties in .IW. each. The Saint/Yr for the Treasury stated to the defendant, that he had sent to inquire after the bail, which he (defendant) had named the day before, and had ascertained that Mr. Ellis, whose name had been given in as one Of the securities, would not consent to be baiL The defendant was then lakes to the Complex in default of bail. BOW-STREET. . . On Saturday John brans was brought up for examination, on suspicion of being concerned In robbing the house of the Rev. W. Pjm, of Bradwell, near Belda*, Herttortishire, on Wednesday night., the 21st of April Ellis, a policetter,aid, that from private information he took the ' into custody, in St. Martin's-lane. On searching hint he 1111 sovereigns In a leather purse, a silver watch with a Offidlodn and seal and after he had secured him, he received a letesisign from Ingrain to go to a watthmaker's in Charing-Cross, l and rd a gold watch which the prisoner left there to be altered and repaired. In the course of the officer's evidence it appeared, that on the night mentioned, Mr. Pym's house was broken into and robbed of a great quantity of plate and other valuables, and that the prisoner was seen the following morning * Luton, with two others, on their way to §t. Akbaies. James Day, a . post:bey trate George Inn at Luton, swore, that +bout half -paten In them ng of April 23, two persons arrived thus in a was Dot one of them. They or ' derail a post-ehaise to Alban's,'lnd the witness, on *hing than a mile on this side of Luton, saw the prisoner walking to wards St. Alban's, and he was ordered to stop and take up Ingram. He did so, and the prlsoo • desired him to drive quick, and he would give him . The witness knew the prisoner when in the service of Me. anwerby, of Puck/ridge. He put them all down at the ()rule Inn, St. Alban's, and they gave him 3s. besides the post-chaise bits. The Solicitor for the prosecution here said, that it would be de. arable to send Ingram down to Hertford gaol, for the accommoda tion of witnesses examined before the Magistrates of the county where the o ff ence was committed, to which Mr. Minshull agreed, and his commitment was made up for that gaol, and a constable from Hertford took the prisoner away from the office. Mr. Cot rey, of Upper C.onway-etreet, Fitzroy-square, attended by Mr. ADOLPHUS IS his Counsel, appeared to prosecute T. 1 1.

On the 111th Me defendant gave him an order . upon Mews. Giles and Co. corn merchants, for the oats, telling h i m, at the same time, he ha d paid that house for them. He presented the order on the 18th, but was told the oats had not been paid for by Pollard, and Messrs. Gilea would not therefore deliver them. On the leth Jan. 18:3, Pollard sold the witness 50 sacks of floor, which he said he had raid foe to Mr. Gilbert, of Thames-street. Mr. paid him 87!. 10s. the same day for the flour, and received an ceder for the delivery upon Mr. Gilbert ; but upon the witness presenting it, he received the same answer from Mr. Gilbert as he had done from Messes. Giles, 4e. that Mr. Pollard had not paid for it. _ . The witness was ersomicanained by Mr. Alley, as to whether he had not considered the nro transacnons only as a debt %mint his eliau Mr. Coney answered to the negative, adding, the defendant had offered the lease of his house and furniture, in Howland-street, as a security for psyment, and produced the hand-writing of Mr. Pollard to that effect. Mr. ALLEY argued, it ins elver Mr. Corm had accepted of that writing as a security for the debt ; but Mr. ADOLPILIII denied his Learned Friend's position, adding, that a tLird act of fraud could never cover two previously com mittal. _ _ The defendant was breught•up by Habeas Corpus from Norwich gaol, to answer these and similar charges about to be preferred against him; and he was bound is good sureties, and he re cognizanees, to appear on Wednesday neat, when Mr. Correy will forward witnesses to prove that Pollard did not pay fir the oats andlour at the time he represented so to him.

In answer to this. Mrs. Preece stated, that for the last twelve I 'worths Mr. Seines:lll had been in the habit of walking opposite her house four hours each day, looking up at the window , and fre quent!, kissing his hand. She accordingly demanded an ex lane tion at him, and finding him in a deep reverie, she certainly did shake his collar, In order to gain his attention. 31n.

On Friday, two men, each of whom appeared t• be about 34 years of age, named William Spencer and Samuel Johnson L wore brought before JAMES SCRIVEN and JAME. WOOLLEY, UV% Surrey Magistrates, charged upon suspicion with having murdered Mary Wilkins, the wife of Henry AVilkins, of 15, street, Bermondsey, a carman in the employment of Melt s y i rrs, fellmunger, of Bermondsey. The deceased had been found in the Surrey Canal on Saturday last, with marks of violence upon her person. It was at first supposed that she had fallen acci den tally into the Canal, but the rumours about the neighbourhood, which is now in a state of great agitation, having reached the above-men tioned Magistrates, an investigation was commenced at the Camber well workhouse. Henry Wilkins said—The last time I saw my wife was on last Friday evening, at her mother's (Mrs. Horsley), Orange-road; I left her there, and never saw her alive after. fliy la ndla dy and me stopped up till nearly twelve o'clock ; I then retired to bed. I made inquiry at her mother's and different places, and could get nu information about her. Elizabeth Donley said—My daughter, the deceased, came to my house on Friday, as I have been informed, about nine in the morning, and staid all day; the lodgers told me that she left about twenty minutes after seven o'clock. On Saturday morning her husband called at my house, a littlet five o'clock, to in. pas quire whether Mary had been there. I said she,had not been home all night. Tuesday morning early I went out to inquire about m daughter. In the Rent-road I met a woman, who asked me if I had heard of a young woman being found in the Canal. I then went to the Lord Nelson, and found a body, which I discovered to be my daughter. I never heard of my daughter's husband striking or ill-using her, but they sometimes quarrelled. Olive Westward deposed, that Johnson and Spencer came seve ral times after the deceased at het lodgings. She told witness drat Spencer had been to sea for two years, was just returned, and was a single man. She had known him since she was twelve years old, and that he would have had her; he did not mind dying for her now, for that he would shoot Wilkins. That he had brought her home silk shawls, and many fine things. She first said his vessel lay at Gravesend, then that he lodged in Blukfriars.road; that she had left him at her father's, to sleep there that night : he was come to take her to France with him ; witness reminded her that site was married now : she said, where lam he will be. Witness added, that on examining the corpse she should not think, from the ap 4rance, that she had destroyed herself; there were marks en both arms, particularly the left, as if she had been squeezed by sonic one ; there was also a mark under one of her ears. Stephen Somers sworn— I live at the Wheatsheaf, Lombard-, street, in the Mint. I have seen the deceased repeatedly at my' house about three months since; she had not been there since till last Friday night; she came about half.past eight or nine o'clock, in company with the two prisoners; they all left my house about half-past eleven o'clock. The woman seemed to be a little intoxicated; l noticed it to my wife. Spencer seemed quite sober; Johnson appeared to be a little in liquor; I think the de ceased was not so far gone as not to be able to find her way home; I did not sec which way the deceased or the prisoners went on law. in my house; I don't know whether they separated or not; and did not hear anything more of the deceased till Monday or Tues day, when it was mentioned at my house that she was found drowned. Oo Saturday morning theprisoners came to my house together, and stopped about an hour. - lubeerred no change in ha dress; I did not hear them say one W4lO about the deceased. Ann Spencer, the wife of Spencer-1-All I know is, that my hus band was out last Friday night; we have been married nine years, and I never knew him to he out a night before, all night ; some , times he would get in liquor, with his companion, Johnson, but he was always a good, kind husband, and regular in coming home to his incubi and his bed. On the Friday, at half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, he came home, washed himself, and put on a waist coat and another hat ; he then said that he was going out but would shortly return ; I next saw him on Saturday morning, about ten o'clock ; he appeared a little in liquor, and said that he had bean at Johnson's, and that be had got there a little after two o'clock that morning ; at the Pitt's Head, a woman told me my husband had been &raking with the deceased on the Friday night, at that house. Eliz. Johnson, the wife of the other prisoner, said, my husband and Spencer came to our house about two o'clock an Saturday morning, and remaided there till half-past five; they then went out and - returned at seven o'clock; my husband was in liquor; Spencer was more collected. The Magistrates asked them, whether they wished to state any thing, but told them that they were not bound to do so unless they thought proper. Spencer said, on 'Thursday afternoon, I and my shipmate, John son, were out, and an coming down Tooley-street, in the Borough, I said we may as well go and see if Susan is at home ; ami he watt and came back, saying, that she was not. Here the prisoner said, that he did not wish to state anything more at present. Neither of the prisoners attempted to give any account of himself from the time they left the Wheatsheaf until they reached John son's house—an interval of two hours and a half. The ilagistrates postponed the further investigation till the next day. SATURDAY, DIRT 8. This morning, at eight o'clock, the inveitigation of this mute. riots circumstance was resumed in the Conunittec.room of Camber- well Workhouse. before James Scriven, Esq., James Woolley, I Esq., Charles Gordon, Esq., George Allen, Esq., and other Magistrates of the county.—The prisoners, Spencer a nd Johnson, were brought from Camberwell mgt. hi whir..hey had been con. fined during the night, attended by a considerable number .f tits inhabitants. The only additional evidence of importance was dr* folios tisg:--Oideon Lewis, constable of Camberwell, aware t never desired any man, en Saturday last, to go and search for things supposed to have been stolen. I hoard on Friday night that a gentleman's carriage had been robbed of an imperial, and that two men had been seen with it in Peckham-fields, by the Canal Bridge. On Saturday morning, about a quarter before six, a mac came to my wife, and said he thought there had been a robbery committed on the bank of the Canal, for he had found some linen. The person was a man of about forty-five or fifty years of age; he had an olive-coloured smock frock on, and I think he had gaiters on, but lam not certain. Underneath the frock he had a, sort of corduroy coat on, like • gamekeeper's jacket; he said his name was Johnson, and that he came to London to see the Stewart of Sir harks Carew, M. P. He said that he had been down in Cornwall some length of time, looking after a salmon fishery be longing to Sir Charles, a short distance front Hodmin. He de scribed the mode of c atching salmon. I accompanied the man to ward, the canal. . On arriving within twenty yards of the half. penny-hatch, he said, " this to the place where I found the bas ket.' The basket had a large pillow-case in it, without a mark. We went to the spot where he found the basket, and he wished me to get a rake, saying he was confident there was someproperty there. I told him that I doubted it. He said he had seen no per. sons about, except two men, then at a distance, whom !knew to be employed there. I thought the man might be a little disordered in his mind. I watched hint; he went to a house near, and brought out a rate, like a hay-rake, and worked it backwards and forwards in the canal, just in the spot where the basket was found, which was about 20 yards from Back's house, on the same side. About thirty yards front that spot the body was found, the same side of the water, but on the other side of the gate. I left the man on the bank of the canal. Back came to me between twelve and one o'clock on Saturday, and informed me they had found the body of a young woman In the water. I went to the Lord Nelson, and saw the corpse, and noticed marks on the left arm ; the marks were much alike, and appeared to have been caused by the pressure of fingers. I heard that the landlord had searched the body, and there fore did not do so. An inquest afterwards sat on the deceased. On Wednesday, between twelve and one o'clock, I and Sedgley apprehended Johnson, at • public-house on Safiiron-hill. %Fe asked him a few questions, desired him to speak guardedly, and held out no promise of favour. He said that be was out on the Fri day night till two o'clock in the morning, and he was in the com pany of Spencer. lie did not say that a woman was in their corn. piny, but he said, "he did not know where the woman went to ;" and he said, "that Spencer knew more about it than he did." Sedgley took Johnson to l'amberwell. I went to Hackney, and found that Spencer had left his employ to go to the Pitt's Head, Gunge-road, Bermondsey. On my return from Hackney, at half. past six o'clock, Spencer was at the Pitt's Head. I took him into custody. I cautioned hint against saying any thi to his own pre judice. I told hint for what he was apprehended, and he denied knowing anything about it. He said afterwards, "that be bad been with the young woman, and had had a bit of fun or a fud. die;" he also said that they went to a public-house in the Mint, where they drank together, and that he parted with her at the top, of the Dover-road. He afterwards said that it was very late, and they went to Johnson's house, and sat up. I think his words were, " Ire left her at the top of the Dover-road." I have made inquiry for the man that was raking the canal, but have not been able to learn anything of him. He was a straniuerto me, bat was as fasni-1 liar as if he had known me for years. The marks on the awns of the deceased, when I saw them, were of a blue cast ; she had then been taken out of the canal about an hour and • half. ' The CHAIRMAN (Mr. naives), having consulted for some time with his brother Magistrates, asked the prisonen if they had any witnesses who couldyrove in what manner they employd their time after they left the It heat Sheaf public-house, till two o'clock on the Saturday morning. The prisoner Spencer said, they had gentlemen in attendance is speak to their character. The Magistrate said, that the cue was involved in much nip.- ten, and strons suspicion of foul play attached to the prisoners in consequence of themarks of violence upon the body of the deceased, they being the last persons seen in her company previous to ha death. The p risoner said they were innocent of the murder. The Magistrate said, that he hoped they would be able to sub. stantiate their innocence; but he and his colleagues were of opinion, that justice demanded a more solemn investigation of the cause el l the young woman's death. They therefore committed the pri. Boners to Ilorstmonger-lane gaol, on suspicion of the murder of Mary Wilkins, and directed them to be brought to L'nion.hall on Wednesday next, for final examination before the police Magi straws of that office. The mother of the deceased said the body was not interred, sod that the marks Pit the arms and side of the neck had become more titsr..olourctl. The Magistrates ordered a surgeon to examine the body, prior to its interment, and directed that he and Mr. Pritchard, a 'argon in the lieut-road, who saw the body before the Jury sat upon it, to at. tend at Union-ball, when the examination takes place. Sum monses were Jammed to compel the attendance of other witnesses, whose evidence is expected to be important. Phe officers were ordered to use all diligence in their rower to apprehend the man ,seen raking the canal; and the M ag i s t ra tes were of opinion, that ' publicity of this cas: In the newspaper s was important, and likely to aid in its titittlopement, as it was pregnant with suspicion.

I A Fevitea S AAAAA D DT His OWN 80N.—...A most unnatural crime was perpetrated two days sines, at the house of Mr. John Gregory, straw-hat manufacturer, No. 6, Greet DOM. street, 11lackfnars-road. The family consisted of Mr. Gregory, his wife, and eight children, six of whom, and Mr. G. !Italia had just finished breakfast, when two of the elder sous, the one named George, came in, and were kit by their father to prepare their own repast, while he went into the shop on business. Just previous to their coming, one of the younger boys, who had risen from table, asked his father far more Wald , and butter, which he couddeting complete wantonness, refused him. During the father's absence, the boy sought to obtain from his brother George that which his father had denied him. He succeeded ; and the brother was pro ceeding to the cupboard, with the intent to cut him another slice, when the father re-entered the room, and endeavoured to present the infraction of his orders, by keeping the door of the cupboard closed with his band; and then it was, that, infuriated at the oppo sition, the unnatural son plunged the pointed table-knife he 'held in his hand into the body of Ins parent, on the left side close to the groin. The wounded father, streaming with blood, staggered to a wag in the shop, exelsiming, " Oh! George, you havelnlifn aline I fear you'll su ff er for this." Surgical aid was instantly resorted to, when a prompt removal to the hospital was determined on, and he was conveyed to Guy's, where he remains in a most dangerous state. The son is nowt yet in custody. BIRTHS. On Saturday last, the Lay of Mr. George Seddon, of Alias. pte otreet, of a daughter. On Friday last, the wife of air.
