lire my inimfdiate miterval to the East Indies, as the only step that cam cure me from my 1113 ad ness To this I very readily consented, because I thought my dreams of bappimos were never to be realised; but if my Margarita tan promise use faithfully her accomplishing her promises, I will mut en. My father and mother I know too well ever to suppose one Sweat that they would enforce any thing to which I did not agreet but I ant unfortunately under the control of people its this country, daring their absence, who have it in their power I. do ate serious M isty; indeed they have already dune so previous to my synittiag Paris. Wiles they heard of your arrival io this coun ts y, Mr. Taylor seat fur me, and gave me his positive assur. anew, that be would again Soothe allowance from my fa this, entrap I solemnly promised that I never would see you again. Margarita, I believe you know me well enough to ears my "liner. I scorned the nines speech, sad left bias nearly and with rage. This was the last day of my stay in London. Ile hied before written to soy cousins, Loril Misitu and Lor.l Auckland, staking oat a most treintiiilous story of my dams r, and they are now both anxious to Vet use out of the country ; but this is all aotbinc to me t if my ever-beloved Margarita will but love me. In that resod soy happiness. If she does, 111 live bat for her. All this fuss among my relations is owing to lady klulinesbury, whom you may recollect was at Paris—an ill natured out eat, who meddles mover? thing. Now, Margarita, the few minutes I have left I will employ in tuestliuning a few things of your letter. About Isla *other first. Margarita, duo% be too credulous ; he may appear all good and generous, but remember Aston is his brother. All they wish perhaps is, to get you out uf his house, and that you may be perfectly inde pendent of all right lit have may thine to its to bus •ffairs.

I voted join you .inamrshately; bat, foe God's sake, be cautious—think fur yourself; bat Weed you generally care little fur what your Mends say, or you would out bare been at Aston Hall. Write Nu' Irma, sad let me know upon what *consuls he would give you a separate settlement—if is that case he would comical to your remaining at his house; in short, Nam, be quite open with tur,—tril me all; and if th e I vice of one so young can have oaf weight, do r ay Bat yoi spurned it so at Paris, that I doubt your having lunch cusilltience in my sense. I love written this in Site greatest haste, fur it is very late; the post is goons immedi ately. God bless you, my ever beloved! forgive me If I base said any thisie severe sib my last letter.

" To Mrs. Hervey Asian, Aston Hall, near Warrington, lauesibire." Mr.Scaaertr, for the Defendant, said, he never rote under a heavier impression of the importance of the cast which he haul to aflll , eka the Jury upon than on the prevent occasion, when a gentleman ill the situation of the present Plimitifl, a gentleman possessing an estate of 15,0001. or 16.0001. a year, sought to obtain a verdict against the Defendant, a youth not yet or age. He would thew, however, that this was nothing less than a conspiracy against the lady who semi the subject of the preoent action; commenced and carried ou for the purpose of get ting a separation from her. The Learned Counsel maid lie would submit a case to the Jury which should prove that this young woman had hero treat ed with the most shameful neglect. He then pro ceeded to comment on the evidence of the French valet and uurae-maid, the improbability of %loch, he contended. would destroy all its credit. He would call evidence of the highest respectability, who would prove that Mr. Aston had neglected his lady in a mariner the most olimineful ; that it was the subject of conversation in every circle in Paris, as were the amours of Mr. Aston; NMI now, to com plete his object of a separation, he had gone to Paris to bring over two French servants to establish the dishonour of his already much- injured wife. Captain Weida!l has known the Hon. Mr. Aston chant three years; first knew him at Paris, eihout tee middle of 1815 ; had known Mrs. Aston before; bud opportunitie* of seeing how they lived ; they w e re by uo metes domesticated. Mr. Aaiun sel dom dined at home. Witilea was in the habit of meeting Mrs. Aston in the firbt circles in Paris ; , but Mr. Aston was seldom with her; did not know how Mr. Aston missed his evenisigs ; had setts Mr. Elliott at Panty iu October ; at that time Mr. Astor' awl he appeared uu the best Mr. Ryan knew Mrs. Aston ; had frequently seen Mr. Aston in the streets of London in 1815 ; witness saw him go into a house of ell fame in Ox•- eisdonostreet in the middle of the day ; had gems him walking iii the street with mean-looking wo men, having the appearance of continuo prostitutes ; lie had seen him frequently ; and at the time he went into the house in Oxencluir-ortet, he had a woman of this description with him. Dr. John Robert Home, a physician in the army, was attached to the head-quarters, and attended the Duke of Virellingtoti ; was iu Paris horn 1814 to the present year ; frequeutly saw Mr. mid Mrs. Aston; met them at the Duke of Wellii.gtuis'a and at other places. to August, 1816, witness, by the desire of Lady Sidney Smith, went to see Mrs. As. ton ; found her labouring under a certain disease, and suffering dreadfully from the effects of mer cury, which had been adtuirsistered to her. Wit. nese saw Mr. Aston on the subject, who expressed his regret for what had occurred, and acknowledged the share he had in occasioning it. Witness thought she must have been ill for some time ; mid witness advised the taking a house at Passel for the mato mitt iiii of her health, arid thought Mrs. Aston was sometimes alone at panto', but Mr. Aston was ge nerally with her. Sir G. Cockburn was at Paris in 1816; knew Mrs. Aston, had done so since the siege. of Cadiz ; did hot know much of Mr. Aston : when they met at Paris witness renewed his acqu iiiitance with her. Recollected that un the day he was about to quit Paris, in the early part of December, 1816, Mr. Aston called on him, and requested his interest and talerference to reconcile ham to Mrs. Aston. Wit liras asked him if lie could consent to give up the iniproper company lie was in the habit of keeping. He said he would, and that it was the first wish of his heart to be reconciled to her. There had, be said, been faults on both sides, as Mrs. Aston had been violent and ill-tempered, instead of soothing him. Witness, on this promise of Mr. Aston, con sented to ititetfere, and ordered his horses to be ta ken front his carriage, as he was about to quit Pans when Mr. Aston cams to him. Witness sent for Mrs. Aston, and she came to his hotel ; at tint she made some difficulties, but that iillection which wit ness then considered, and still considered, that the regard she entertained for her husband induced her to give way, and witness put her hand into that of her husband. Mr. GuaN ey addressed the Jury in reply. CIII6F JUSTICF. summed rip, and the Jory, after a few minute* olthbvration, fount] a vt-rdici tor the Plaititiff—Damages ONE iILINDIIED POI, NOS.

On Saturday Captain Royal, an officer of great galllinto7, who distinguished himself in the late wars, and who lust a leg, aud was otherwise much wounded iu the wirier, was charged with firing off a pistol with intent to kill. An attorney, who attended fur the prosecution, stated, that the Captain, aho resides at Hampstead, had seduced, and taken sway from home, a Miss Flits Naismith, the daughter of • Purser in the Navy, but now an orphan. She had Wen restored, but be again got possession unser, and her sister, accompanied by Win. Fleet, went to ha bow 011 Friday, to get a letter whirl; the sister %opposed Elit had taken sway with her, mid which entitled her to some emoluments from the Admiralty The Captain refused then, admittance, called fur powder and ball, and fired out of his window at Fleet. _ To prove the cite, Elect said, Orli he accompanied Mix• Naismith to the Captain's halm., when she knorked at the dour, and the Captain asked if s h e was alone, and she replied in the affirmative; when he again interrogated her, and 1011111111 said she was not alone. Captain It. then sai,ll, " I suppose that blackguard, Gateau, is with you; and if a., lii 'hoot I • ." Now N. said it was Fleet. Theo," Said the Captain, " about him, or twenty more." He tlwto called his maid I to bring his pistols, and he shortly after lifted the window of the flist floor and bred, bill the i parties had got out of the front garden into the road. He previAttly informed Owns that ha would send then, home' without • leg or a wing After firing, he asked if that had mel te d them. "if mit" said he, " find a pistol that shall reach you half a mile uff." awl be called his servant to bring more powder and ball. Mr. Gittcus stated that he was the protector of the two I young ladies, out of respect to the father, and be was also a I relation. Captain Royal stated, that he took Miss R. N. under his protection, and wheal taken hack home she returned azain of her own accord. His I e had been beset by persons he did nut kuuw, and they threatened to break his windows, and he acted in self:defence. lie di tied them to rove that he fired a pietid, se it was dark. The Magistrate urdered that good bail should be given f,r the assault, and he left it fur the parties to prefer an iiiihet mast under Lord Ellenburough's Act, which coastitutev a capital offence. MYSTERIOUS DINAPPR.4RANCE OF A YOUNG a ENTL R. 114 N. Saturday the proprietor of the OM White Horse Cellar applied at the Public Oftiee, Bow.street, for assistance and advice, ender the following distressing circumstances : Tits &indicant stated, that bis brother-in-law, ■ youth eighteen years of age, of the name of Stephen Hooper, went out its a single horse chaise on Sunday, the 29th of Notion her, 1 . 1.1111 the livety.stable.laid of Mr. Reynolds, Gray's. without any avowed object, having been disap pointed of going to Merton, for which place he had ori ginally engaged the horse and chaise, but the engagement he hail made there was postponed, and the young, Irian said be would take a ride elsenbere, will t naming the place, nue is it known by his distracted family the road he went. He has never returned, and it is now upwards of a fortnight since be left. He took no change of clothes with him, and therefore it cannot be even conjectured that be intruded to remain out all night. He was expected home at bus resi dence iu Pentonville the same evening. No exerti iiii s have been wanting as to inquiries of his re latives at Gloucester, Oxford, anti in other parts of the country, but nut the least intelligence tespecting him ran he obtained. He holds a situation in an u milieu' merchant's (limiting-house, and was extremely cunifortatile its his cir cumstances and with his family, its which the must distress ing event has happened since be has been missing, by the death of his mother, *hose decease, it is feared, had been hastened by Ins loss. He was of extremely steady habits and correct moral conduct. _ _ _ As the parse and chaise have not been heard of, the de al:wiring ciinjectures of his relatives arc, that he has been *Wilted and murdered, and that the body has been thrown into a dilator river, and that the rubbers have applied the horse and chaise to their own use; or that by some accident he awl the horse and chaise bad fallen iiitu a river, and no a.Kistavice being et baud, they had sunk to the bottom, where they now remain.
