The arrival both of Wheat sad flour lint week win by no means large ; but the determination of Parliament to release bonded Corn occasioned ■ great stagnation in the trade after Monday's market, and the business done both on Wednesday and Friday sot was very inconsiderable, at a reduction of some shillings per quarter In every article. This morning we bad a flair supply of Wheat from Essex, Kent, and Mutiolt ; and though we consider prime samples from 2s. to 3s. per quarter cheaper, and the twiddling and ordinary sorts at least is., there nevertheless was more disposition to parakrise, and sales were without difficulty effected at the above reduction.

(From the New York Pries Cwrress of April 51 COTTON, Since the date of our last poblicatinn, adviels have been received frogs Liverpool as late as the 2d of March. The unfavourable tenor of those accounts has caused the purchaser* mostly to retire from the market. The vales have consequently been more limited, and principally at a re. diction from previous rates. About 450 bales of fair to very good New Orleans hare Leen disposed of, at 13 to 14 cents., a lot of Mobile, at 104, with a discount of I per cent.; a lot of Uplands, at the same price, with 4 per cent. discount for cash ; and several small parcels of Alabama* and Uplands to the manufacturers, at 14 to 13 cents. The sales altoge. thee amount to about 700 bales. We reduce our quotations. Advice, were received tart evening from Havre to the sth of March, which left that market without any material variation in prices.

DISTRESSED MA NUIPACTUSIERSe.—Extract of a letter ad dressed to the Committee for the relief of the distressed ma nufacturers, from IValton-le-1)1de, near Preston, May 6, 1826:—" If the distress in this neighbourhood is not quite so great as in other pieces, it is owing to exertions and sacrifices made by private individuals, one of whom, Wm. Heatley, Esq. a Kunsan Catholic gentietnan, has expended, since November, 114V6, in well-applied charity, 1,000/. These and similar acts of kiurluess, while they have miti gated the load of our distils', will not, I trust, make it to be &alight unnecessary to grant us further relief." THE BRITISH PRESS.

BRITISH ANNUITY COIETANY.-.TAN SANDAU V. MOOSE AND OTHERS. The Loan CHANCELLOi gave judgment in the above case this morning. and entered at great length into all the circum. stances of it. The present application was an appeal motion from an order made by his Honour the Vice-Chancellor. The mo tion to the Court below was that it Might be referred to the Muter, to inquire whether the fourteen answers, put in separately by four teen defendants, were different—whether there was any necessity fcr the defendants to answer, and whether, if the Master found af firmatively, there was any netestity foe repeating the schedules to all the answers that had been annexed. His Honour made the or,ler, saying that he felt satisfied that it had been made from the best of motives, namely, with a view to prevent opprestion which had been the declared object of the Solicitor, who had advi sed pat ring in the separate answers. Whatever might be the proper course to be adopted with respect to calling upon the defendant to pay the unnecessary costs incurred by this mode of putting in the answers, or with respect to calling upon 11r. Wilkes, the solicitor, to pay them, or with respect to an application to strike him off the rolls at some future stage of the cause, there was no existing rule, by which the Court could compel defendants to put In a joint anrxer. Defen dants, by the constitution of this country, were entitled to take such a line of defence, and in employ such agents in the conduct of that defence, as they thought proper ; but the Court would not do its duty, if, when it came to make a decree, it did not make the unnecessary costa incurred fall upon the proper parties.— Perhaps also, in some future stage of the cause, it' the cause were to proceed further, an application might very properly be made to the Court to strike the Solicitor off' the Rolls, but In this stage it would be premature to deal with that question In any shape. Looking, howevet, at the difficulty, and the Immense ex pense that would attend bringing this cause to a hearing, with nearly three hundred defendants, surely it would be a wise thing for both plaintiff and defendants to consider whether it would not be much to the advantage of them all, to settle all their disputes amicably. Parliament too, in passing an Act, affecting this Corn. pony, had, if not incorporated it in the Act, so dealt with the deed regulating the Company, by calling for it, as to have made it that deed on which alone the institution was to be founded, and by the terms of which it was to proceed ; and upon that deed a serious question arose. whether any one shareholder could, at his pleasure, ' dissolve the Company. as a partner could in any common partner ship. Upon the whole, there being no authority in existence, which would enable the Court to order the defendants to file a joint answer, and to take them into custody by attachments if they did not; and, looking at the impropriety of sending so many defen. dints into the Master's Office to be examined on interrogatories, and there, at this early stage of the proceeding, disclose the whole of their defence, thereby giving the plaintiff an opportunity of having the case heard by a side wind; upon this motion, it was the duty of the Court to discharge the order that had been made. His Lordship then intimated that suitors, and the public, might now understand, that atter the Parliamentary . Sessions shall be , closed, he will employ every Monday in giving judgments; letting nothing be put in the papers for these days but hie judgments, and informing parties on the Fridays preceding what judgments he will give. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 8. RULERS OF THE KING'S BENCH PRISON. IN lig TINDAL. Mr. BROUGHAM moved fora rule to show cause why William Tindal, Eq. who is now a prisoner in the Rules of the King's Bench prison, should not be deprived of the benefit of the Rules, and confined within the walls of the prison. It was sworn by the plaintiff at whose suit the defendant was originally confined, that the debt was 2.3001 and after the derendant had been imprisoned some time, the plaintiff agreed to take from him a bend for 9001. only, on payment of which he agreed to release him. That bond, however, which had been given several years ago. had never been paid; but two years' interest bad been paid, anti both principal and the remainder of the interest were still due, though the de. fendant had ample means to pay. He had 18,0001. stock standing in the name of a trustee for his benefit, also an annuity of 250/. and several other sums of money which came to his possession; but refused payment, and was now living in a state of great comfort, and even luxury, within the Rules. 111 r. Justice I.ttrtr LEDA LE, who was alone on the Bench, said, there was no precedent to warrant the interference of this Court under such circumstances. Mr. Buono:11;am said, that It was sworn in addition that the defendant had been in the habit of transgressing the Rules, and had acknowledged that about two years ago he had gone to Bath, where he had remained six or seven days. Dir. Justice LITTLEDALE—Then take a rule to show cause on that ground only. LIABILITY OF CARRIERS. )(ASSN V. NOVICE. The judgment of the Court in this case, which was argued on a former day of the present Term, wee now delivered. The argument way fully reported in our paper. The Loan Crime JUSTICE—This Mute came before the Court on a special verdict. It is tin action brought against the proprietor of a stage roach for the loss of two boxes containing silks of consi derable value, sent by the defendant's coach, for the purpose of being delivered at Bath. The declaration was in the usual form of assumpsit. The special verdict states, that the defendant, be. ing proprietor of a Bath stage-coach, published an advertisement, by which notice was g i ven t o th e public that he would not bold himzelf accountable for the loss or damage of any parcel or package of above rd. In value, unless the same was entered as such, and paid for accordingly, when delivered to the defendant or his agents in town or country. The plalatilE In delivering the two boxes to the defendant for etmveyance to Bath, knew that the defendant had I given such a notice; and the defendant was aware that the two noses (which contained silks of the value of 2281. 3s. lid.) were' vollh more thin bl. Ile, however, undertook to carry them safely to Bath for a reasonable reward, to be paid on their delivery It Bath ; and the verdict the goes on to state, that the defendant did not Carey them safely from London to Bath. but that, during the progress of the coach os its intended journey to Bath, they were lest or stolen from the back-boot of the coach; but no extraordinary risk no incurred. Upon these grow* it was contended, on the part of the plaintiff, that, u the defendant knew these goods were worth more than St. It lay upon him to ask for an insurance ; not having done so, he waived his notice : and it would be an incongruity to allow a carrier to say that he had not undertaken to convey the goods, under such cis. eumstinees. We think, however, that It is not so. There is no such incongruity ; because a person msy undertake to put goods in a course of conveyance, and yet declare that he is not answer. able for their loss; and it might be reasonably supposed, under such circumstances, that the plaintiff was his own insurer. If It were otherwise, that argument would defeat the effect of these no tices, which have prevailed for a great many years, and overturn the decisions of this Court, which have repeatedly recognized them. There are two decision, in conformity with our opinion. One Is Harris v. Blackwood, 3 Taunton, 264, and the other is Lewis v. Waterhouse, I Price. 280. For these reasons, and upon these authorities, we think the judgment must be entered, in the present Mt, for the defendant. THE ICING V. J. I. CLEMENT, ESQ. The ATTORNEY.GENESAL said that he was Instructed to appear on behalf of Mr. Clement, the proprietor of the Morning hroniele, against whom a rule for a criminal information had been granted for a libel on the tirm of Messrs. [lntim, Brothers, anti Co., and be begged now to say, in the name of Mr. Clement, that he considered the prosecutors most respectable gentlemen, against whom he regretted extremely that his journal had been made the vehicle of any aspersion. The libel complained of had come to his establishment in the form of an anonymous letter, and had been inserted wholly without his knowledge. On inquiry, however, he found that the imputations cast upon the prose c utors were without foundation, end he hoped that this public expression of his regret that they had been published would induce Messrs. !lunette from any further proceedings in this case. Mr. SCANLETT, on the part of Messrs. Mullett, said that they had no animosity towards Mr. Clement; that they believed the libel complained of had been published without his knowledge, and they were perfectly satisfied with the very handsome man. ner in which the Attorney.Oenerai had expressed Mr. Clements' regret. THE KING V. AUGUSTUS THESSIGER AND WILLIAM KEEN. In this case, a rule for a criminal information had been granted in the present Term against the defendants. fur certain libels upon Francis Freelinie, Esq. published in The General Advertiser and Post-d/fee Gazette. Mr. BROUGHAM apologired on the part of the defendants for the aspersions that had been cast upon Mr. Freeling, and said that he agreed to the rule being made absolute without opposition ; but as his clients promised solemnly that the like cause of complaint should not again exist, they hoped that Mr. Feeding would not press the matter further. The LORD Cu El JuSTICE said he had no doubt Mr. ,Freeling would be satisfied with this; and the ATTOENEY.OENE•AL ac quiesced, after stating that Mr. Freeling's sole object was, to put a stop to the attacks that had been made on him. IN THE MATTER OF LATOUCHt. This WA% a rule wiling upon the Marshal of ti;e Ring's Bench prison to show cause why he did not restore Mr. Latouche, a pri soner In that place of confinement, to the Rules. It appeared that Mr.Latouche had been deprived of the Rules on account of his having, in i state of intoxication, tired • pistol at one of the patrols in the neighbourhood of the prison. The Couar refused to make any order upon the Marshal, com pelling him to grant the Rules to any prisoner, as it was entirely at his own risk that he suffered any to enjoy that indulgence; but they would recommend the Marshal to restore Mr. l*eiuche to the Rules, on his entering into his own recognizance, In the sum of 1001. and finding two sufficient sureties in the sum of SOL each, to keep the peace towards all his Majesty's subjects. THE KING V. 6NX:it:ltem. This case, wherein a rule was granted in the present Term to show cause why a criminal information shou'd not be filed against a clerk in the office of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, for sending ■ libellous and provoking letter to another clerk in the same establishment, was postponed, on the motion of the ATTORNEY GENEEAIs, until next Term, as there had not been sufficient time to answer the affidavit of the complainant. IN T/IE MATTER OF ROBERT BLIOH, ESU. Mr. CURMOOD moved to make absolute the rule he obtained a few days since, calling upon the :Marshal of the Ring's Bench prison to show cruse why Mr. Bligh should not be re-admitted to the enjoyment of the Rules. Mr. GURNEY appeared on the part of Earl Darnley and Lord Clilden, to oppose the rule, on the ground that Mr. Bligh had an often violated his promises to preserve the Fence toward' the Noble Earl and his family, that he could no longer be trusted. The LORD CIIIEF JUSTICE said, that if there was say op. position to the application, the Court could not interfere; and per haps the leas the subject was mentioned the better. [These cases were the only subjects that were brought before the Court worthy of notice. To obviate the inconvenience usually arising on the last day of Term, from the Isle hour to which the Court has been obliged to sit, owing to motions behind the bar be ing postponed until the last, the Lord Chief Justice commenced this morning by calling first on the youngest members of the pro fession, by which means more busines s was got through, and in a less time, on the last day of Term, than has been known for some years. Their Lordships were enabled to vise about al: i and usually the sitting of the Court on similar days has been protracted until eight or nine o'clock at night.] POLICE. OU!LDIIALL. COACH ROBBERY.—IiicUrIi iv 417., the guard of the Bir mingham post coach, was brought up for examination yesterday, by Hertisficld, the officer on suspicion of being accessary to t he steal ing of a parcel containing 5231. Its small notes of the Bank of England. Mr. HumPHRETS attended for the prisoner. Mr. Chaplin, of the Spread Eagle Inn, Gracechurch-streist. the proprietor of the coach, said the prisoner was to!d, when the Fared was delivered to him, that it was insured, and the exact amount was mentioned to him. He put It in the breast-pocket of his coat (there were three witnesses to that fact), and observed, placing his hand over it, that it should remain there till he delivered it at Birming ham. At Stoney Stratford prisorer missed the parcel, whish be had placed in the receptacle, under one of the staui in the Inside of the coach, but instead of returning immediately to London, to stop the payment of the notes at the Bank next mntning, he went on to Birmingham, and was there given into custody. The coach left London on the evening of the 11th of April, and as soon as business commenced at the Bank on the liillowibq morning, an old gentle man presented the whole of the stolen notes. which he hint changed into live 1001. notes, and then immediately obtained sovereigns for the latter. The prisoner said he was not able to squeeze the parcel into his pocket, and that was the reason he placed it inside the coach, and he was as innocent of all participation in the rubbery as a child. Herdstield, the officer, informed the Magistrate that a witness could be produced, who would state that on this very journey, be. fore the coach quitted London, the prisoner cautioned a gentleman against placing any thing under the seats, alleging that the coach was robbed every week. He must therefore have been perfectly aware of the Insecurity of the place of deposit he selected for this valuable parcel. Mr.HumPHatirs thought the prisoner might have unguardedly put the parcel in the seat, finding it inconvenient, from its size, to be carried about his person ; and urged th a t th e p r i soner h a d been in custody now nearly a month upon suspicions only, which the prosecutor scented unable to prove. Mr. Alderman LUCAS said this was the first time this case had come betore him, and he would not hastily make up his mind to discharge the prisoner. He inquired what wu the course usually taken by guards when they were informed that a parcel had been insured, and was of value. The witness said Evans had frequently had such parvls delivered to lilts before, and carried them about his person, u the most secure way. Mr. Hu MPHREVS-But you did not stitch them in his pockets? Witnets—No. Mr. Aldermen LUCAS said he should like a little time to weigh the circumstances of this case, and remanded the prisoner for an other hearing. BOW-STREET. On Saturday last Mr. Al twsuu xi. was occupied for some hours in the morning, and again io the evening until a late hour, in the investigation of the following curious affair : A well-dressed man, about thirty years of age, who stated that his name was Sugg. and that he was in holy orders, was brought front Dover. by Ledbitter, of this office, who had followed him thither with a warrant, in which he stood charged with fraudulently possessing himself of SM., the property of Air. Coape, a merchant, of Finch-lane, Cornhill. Mr. Coape deposed, that in consequence of an advertisement In the Timer newspaper, about ten or twelve days alto, in which three horses, described as the property of a Reverend Gentleman going abroad, were stated to be for sale, at a livery stable in Orange street, Leicester.square, lie went there with his brother, and found a man ins groom's livery, who showed the horses; and on the witness selecting one, said he was instructed by his master to demand 70 guineas for him. When asked who was his muter, he said that his name wu Sugg, and that he was Rector of Layton, In Essex. After one or two subsequent visits to the stables, the witness saw Mr. Sugg, and the former finally agreed to give 70/. for the horse, if upon trial of three days he should still approve of him. Sugg said as Mr. Coape was a stranger to him he should require part of the purchase money to be paid down, and Mr. Coape consented to pay down 551., the balance of 151. to be paid at the end of the three days' trial, if the result should be fayouraWe; if other wise, to be refunded and the horse returned. Mr. Coape paid the money and said he would take the horse away himself, but Sugg said he could not allow him to do that ; he would send his groom with it. This Mr. Coape thought at the time was purely a matter of politeness, and he requested that the animal might be sent to Gale's livery stables in Oxford -street, which Sugg said should be done before eight o'clock on Saturday se'nnight the 29th of April. In the course of the conversation between them, Sugg said he was in orders and had graduated at Cambridge, but did not say he had any living. Before eight o'clock Mr. Cape became uneasy, and walked down to the stables In Orange-street, where he found that the horse was gone, as a helper in the yard told him, to Oxford street. Ile went to Gale's, but the animal had pot been seen there, and on his returning once more to Orange-street, he learned that the Rev. Air. Sugg, hisgroom, and all the three horses, had die appeared together. Mr. Coape in a day or two ascertained that Sugg I had gone to Dour, whither he caused hba to be followed by tho officer. IQ. Bass very melklently denied that these was say th ing fray dulsett la* asamatioa. It all arose. he said, boos a mistake of haiti a whOlhor re t t hom he was to take the base, and when he 111111 t A w it by a ticket-pone, to 11. t. Cape, 'Arno Ile Noe Mr. Coape admitted that, but said that In the needle' tu t b id good reason t o b e li eve t h at the horse was hardly worth having. -- Sir R. Monte asked whence the ticket-porter was sent, and being told from the Royal Exchange, remarked that prob a bl y B h , Sugg wan at that distance from Orange-street, on his way to D o , • when he gave th e note . er, Mr. Sugg next proceeded to crottaexarine Mr. Coape with to sharpness. " Now, Sir," said h e , " you say .you asked me to l e i you take aw a y t h e h orse (which by.the-bye I totally deny.) p ; ay did you ask me to l en d y ou a saddle and bridle ?" Mr. Coape replied in the negative. Sugg—Now, your Worships, I undertake to prove, by all the rules of logic, that Mr. Coape has made two assertions, whi c h are perfectly [rico:labium with each other ; and that, therefore, he h violated truth. He says he asked me to allow him to take aw e s ; the horse, and yet he admits that he did not ask me for the 101'114 a saddle and bridle, without which he could not take it away ; f or it cannot be supposed a gentleman would lead a horse through the streets by a halter. Mr. MINSHULL—Why, Mr. Coape says he asked yo u to lee him take away the horse, which you refused, and after that refusal I cannot perceive of what possible use the saddle and bridle could be to him. This plain answer to Mr. Sugg's rules of logic created roa c h laughter. After some further remarks, the defendants were ordered to b e kept in custody till the evening, when the parties again attend e d , Mr. Coae brinin Mr. Ilaitsta as his solicitor, and 8 another p p rofession g g al man (Mr. HumpentEval The two lawyers, at the request of Sugg, had a private mar & Fence, at the termination of wh ic h M r . Harmer informed the Ba lc h that Sugg had offered to give up 201. which had been found upc• him by Ledbitter, to Mr. Coape, together with the horse ; and that, if Mr. C. did not like the hone in three days, it should be sold for his (Mr. Coape'a) benefit. To this Mr. Coape was dia. poled to accede. The parties then posted o ff toOrange.street, to get the horse, led after a long absence returned with it to the door; Mr. Suggay. e . logizing by stating that the stables were locked, and they were obliged to break them open. Ledbitter was receiving order, to deliver the 201. and the horse to M r . C oape, on the conditions ms s , Honed, when a man named Goddard stepped forward and said " that won't do, the horse is mine." " Your horse," said &lig, I say It i s mine." "It a'n't though, and yos know it." replied Goddard. " How then cam e S ugg to se ll it ?" inquired Mr. Alm. situur.. Goddard—.. , Why. I authorised him to sell it,tt "Then how can it be your hone ?" said Mr. Harmer. " I authorized him to sell it," answered Goddard, " but not to run away with the money." (A laugh). Sugg persisted for some time in sayin g th e horse was his, but at length admitted that he was employed by Goddard to sell that and two others, and was to receive a commis. sine upon the money obtained. " Yes," said Mr. Humor, were io be the clergyman going to the Continent, you know." N o answer from Sugg, but Goddard said Mr. Harmer was partly right ; be was to pay Mr. Sugg for the use of his name. Sugg and Goddard then turned round upon each other, and a volley of reed. mination bunt forth which it world be hard to describe. In COD. elusion, Sugg turned to the Bench, and exclaimed, „ Ohl but for ihtjuring myself, I could disc-ion • scene of ro guery a l most an. paralleled." Mr. Miarsilut.l. said he had never witneued a scene to Bureau the present, and he should now close it by ordering the bone end inot,ey to be delivered to Mr. Coape, and the other parties to go about their business.—Thus the matter ended. QUEEN-SQUARE. ATTEMPT TO ATTACK MR. CANlllNG.—resterday Richard Walker, who stated himself to be a mariner, residing in Thortsy. Place. So ners Town, was brought up by G. Poole, an olleerof the ab me establishment, who took the prisoner into custody on tis. turday, under the following charge :—Walker had placed himself, with his wife and four children, on Saturday, at the door of Lb Right Hon. 0. Conning, in Downing.street, during the time of the C binct dinner. lie had written a letter, which he gave to oae of the servants directed to Mr. Canning, the purport of which was, that R. Walker was waiting, with his wife and family, in a state of starvation, and wanted relief out of his (3lr. Canning's) own funds, or Royal bounty ; that hi s s hip an d cargo had been seized at Lis bon by a tribe of monsters called Portuguese, and that he bad been robbed of his property. The letter went on further to say-- " It will also be found on reflection equally unlawful to retain such property, as it lathe price of blood.'• This note was dated the llth of May. In a short time the servant came to the prisoner, eying there was no answer, and requested him and his family to go away ; he however declared he would nor stir from the spot witheut same satisfaction ; in consequence of which appliaton .coat made at Queemsquare office, to the Magistrate, who despatched an officer to remove him. On Pople's arriving at the spot, he saw the psi. goner parading in front of the Foreign Office ; be Mule. diste!y desired him to retire, but the prisoner refused; he then asked him his business there, when he told him, that he had written a letter to Mr. Canning, for some relief for his family, who were in a state of starvation, and he ceutd get no answer. The encer asked him what had .Mr. Canning to do with him or his family ? He said that he had been plundered in an us. lawful manner by the Portuguese, for which that Right Hon. Genleman could give him relief, he being the Minister fur Foreign Affairs but refused to do so; and that be had also a petition to the King 01 the puhject, and was directed by his Majesty to see Mr. Canning, and he was determined to wait and see him, for he would not leave without satisfaction. Poole then told him be was an officer, and his dtity was to remove him; upon which be said " it la no use to remove me, unless you mean to take me prisoner, for as noon as you suffer me to go I s h a ll return again." 'f be officer coo. requently took him into custody. The Magian.. to to'd the prisoner tl at he had made inquiry at the Foreign Off.ce respecting his claim, and he perceived that this Government had done all in their power to serre him, but that the Portuguese Ministers had disallowed his claim t therefore this Government could not interfere further for him; soil unless he now positively promised that he wot Id n t make any fur. thee person al application to that Rig ht Hon.

The prisoner was then discharged. A RY LE BONE-OFFICE. THEATRICAL REGULATION/I.—Yesterday, Mr. William Be. verley, the manager of the West London Theatre, appeared on a 11111111110 Gr, before Mr. Rawlinson, ter having refused to return the money paid by a man named Simmonds, for his admission into the theatre, under the impression that there was plenty of room. It appeared from the statement of Mr. Simmonds, that be went to the theatre upon some evening during the past week, with his wife and child, but finding that tall price was demanded for the admission at the pit door, they went to the gallery and paid three shillings, being one shilling each for the party ; but on enter. ing the gallery, they found it crowded t o excess, and not being aMe to obtain the slightest glimpse of the stage, they came out, when Mr. Simmonds asked if there was morn in the Pie.; being IN formed in the af fi rmative, he paid the additi o n a l s hill ing for his ad mission, but found that also crowded ; therefore he demanded the whole of his money bacx, which having been refused, he had adopted this means to procure redress. Mr. Raw Lt news mid, he was happy to hear the theatre me. ceeded so well, and asked Mr. Beverley what explanation he could give. Mr. Beverley—Upon my word, Sir, I should be equally glad to hear this man speak the whole truth, as I can assure you his state. ment is not " quite correct." On the evening in question, the en. tertainment was for the benefit of three performers, and the receipo of the night in the gallery were:only 61. 95.; whereas, if the gallery had been so crowded, the receipts would have been 71.105. because it holds 169 persons. It also appears from my list, that forty per sona came in at half-price, which was after the time the nom. &Want said he was there. Mr. Beverley handed into the Magistrates the list of his rocelpts, confirmatory of what he had said. The Magistrate, under all the circumstances. said there vs no ground for the complaint, which was accordingly dismissed. life. Smille, a respectable budder, residing on Portman-green. was charged with " thrashing" another builder, named Green, most soundly. From Green's statement, it appeared that he went upon 1010 e ground belonging to hlr. Smith, when some words arose relative to a wall, and Mr. Smith immediately attacked and beat him most severely, and compelled him to retreat off the premises to save his life. • Mr. Smith, in reply, denied altogether the accusation, and de clared that he himself was the injured party, the complainant having rushed open him while upon his own premises, and struck him several times with a large measuring rod, and ha was then compelled in his own defence to strike him in return. He had witnesses in attendance, who:proved that Green was the aggressor, and of a quarrelsome and violent disposition. Green, in answer to this, called an old man, named Fleming (who very narrowly escaped being held to bail himself for his pugne• &us behaviour in the office), to rebut their statements, in which be failed. The Magistrate, Mr. friossixs, without entering into all the evidence, referred Mr. Green for redress to the Sessions. BIRTHS.
