This naming, at ten o'clock, all the Judges met, with the excep tion of Lord Chief Justice Best and the Lord Chief Baron. Lord Chief Justice Aliscreli rend the eviderce in this ease. It war an action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant, for in jury dune to the plaintiffs horse. Tee accident occurred in C'mn lull the 31st of November, 1822. It appeared that the deem. slant was io a chaise hired from Mr. Beam, a livery-stable-keeper, it. the Haymarket • the chaise was driven by it robe boy, arrant c f Mr. Beirut, and the plaintiff's horse was rode by nit servant._ '1 chaise was ran against the plaintiff's horse, end considerable injury was occasioned to the animal. An action ems brought against the defendant fur the injury committed by the post-boy, and the pleintiff was nonsuited, on the ground that the action was nut main tunable against the defendant tier the deeds of the poet-boy, but egainstelh. Briant, his master, who alone wee liable fur the actions GI his servant. Tke point of law being of considerable import. ante to livery-stableakapera, and in its consequences to the public in general, was reserved but the argument before the Twelve Judges. fiir. Teems - Lk, on the part of the defendant, argued at consider able Werth, contending that the servant belonged to Mr. Briant, and not to Mr. Pointer. Ile cited a variety of cases in point, here it was held that a person hiring a coach or horses fee the day was not liable for the actions of the postilion. file said that it was nut at all likely that a gentleman could know the character of a servant whom he had hired merely for the day. filament were in a certain degree liable for the acts of their servants, but not fur all. Suppose a person had undertaken to build a house, and bad hired beieklayees and labourers, was he to be contidered liable for the act of a man who let fall a brick on the head of a person below in the street ? The same principle held good in the present case. The point on which the plaintiff rested his cue, was that of " Bush v. Strieman," decided in the Court of ommon Pleas, in 17159. where Mr. Justice Heath said, " there are besides this , other Cases ; 113 where a person hires a coach upon a job, and a job roach man is sent with it, the person who hires it is liable for any Mill chief dare by the coachman while in his employ, though he is not his servant." But he submitted that this decision did nut street the merits of the resat rise, and concluded by trustitig that their Lordships would not disturb the verdict. Mr. Justice BAYLEY asked whether he made any distlrc lion between hiring a coach and horses for a day, and for a oneh ? Mr. TYNDALE said, that where a person was hired for a fort night or a month, there was a Utter opportunity for knowing the ivories of these:vane Mr. ABRAHAM addressed their Lordships for the plaintiff. Ile observed that there was a manifest distinction between this case and that of hackney coaches or stage coaches. There the management of the ruche:, was under the direction of the drivers, who were hell responsible for the damage done, but here the coach and pm-A hoy were under the centrol of the defendant, who had hired the cuaeli. The case of " Bush and Steinman" was exactly in point, and had not been ar.swered by the other side. The third count in the declaration avoided the difficulty contained in the two fusee—. The third count stated that the coach, horses, and servant, were under the care, government, and direction of the den& dant. Lord Chief Justice A BBOTT.—Were the horses under the cue Iff the defendant ? Mr. A a GIAII A3l submitted that they were, inasmuch en the llefeß. 'dart hail hired the coach. horses, and servant, for the day, aid might drive t.ith them wherever he pleased. The Lord Chiee Justice A enoer observed that caches wets hired for u particular lint of road, on account of the duty, and that they received a ticket to that effect. Mr. Arse ARAM was aware of that cireumitance. Ile then rested his cause on its similarity to that of " Bush and Steinman;' and concluded, neer citing other case', by observing that the brieklaver'e accidentally dropping a brick on a person in the street, was of no weight with reference t 3 the present cam, and that the defendant was alone liable for the act of the past-coy while under his authority. Lord Chief Justice ABBOTT said that their Lordships would take time to consider their judgment. Judgment deferred. Tilt LIFO V. THOMPSON. Mr. LAW said, that he appeared before their Lordships on hr. half of William Thompseu, who was convicted, at last IVinter Surrey Assizes, of staahng from the person. It appeared that the prisoner had attempted to steal a pocket-book, from the pocket of a gentleman, and while in the act of extracting it, the gentleman seized hold of his hand, on which the prisoner immediately let go has hold of the book, which dropped into the gentleman's pocket. An objection was taken on the trial, that the prisoner had not taken possession of the book, and could not therefore be convicted of - larceny. The point was reserved for the consideration of the Twelve Judges, and was now argued. Mr. Lew submitted that the evidence adduced at the trial did not support the charge of larceny, and he was prepared to contend, best, that it was not stealing at all; next, that it their Lordships' judgment should be against hint on that point, that it was not stealing from the person. On the first point he argued, that it was not stealing at all, because tie had not taken the property, anti he ad. duced the statute of Elizabeth, cited by Lord Hale in his Pleas of the Grown, in support of his argument. Lord Chief JUSOCCABBOTT said, that the ease of t h e portman teau decided lately was against him. The portmanteau was car. wad to the door of the house, but not carried away. Mr. LAW then observed, that as their Lordships' opinion was against him on the first point, he would now submit, that it was not stealing from the person, because two persons could not be in passeesion at the same ume—an adverse possession by the thief end a possession hy the prosecutor. He instanced the case of " the King v. Mann," in support of his argument. It was a ease of •highway robbery, tried before Me. Justice Bayley. The prisoner Meson had attempted to rob a man of his watch, but the watch being held by a chain, he was not enabled to take it away. It was held, that where a trunk had been dragged to the door, but had not been severed from the rope to which it was fastened, that it wasn't stealing : and the case of a bale of goods having been opened in a wagon, but not carried eft; was also in his favour. In the preemie case, the pocket book had never left the party ; and he submitted, therefore, that it was not steaiiog from the person, as the podia must be considered as part of the person. The Lamed Geode. 'man argued at some length in support of this position, and eon. eluded by hoping that the Learned Judges would give the prisoner the full benefit of the objection, by seeing that there could not be adverse possession of the property by the thief and the prosecutor at the same time. Lord Chief Justice ABBOTT asked if there was any gentleman sen the other side ready to argue on the case ? Mr. Law was not aware of any. There was none present. Lard Chief Justice ABBOTT then observed, that their Lordships mate consider their judgment. Judgment defeired. ADMIRALTY SESSIONS, WEDNZIDAY, Frs. 2. This morning a Sessions of Oyer and Terminer, co. General Gaol Delivery, for of committed on the High Seas, was held at the Old Bailey. Lord Stowell, accompanied by the various °dicers of the Admiralty Court, attended at an early hour, but ueither of the Learned Common Law Judges were present. The reading the several Commissions, and the other usual forma lities, occupied the Court for a considerable time, after which the names of the Grand Jury were called over, and being severally Lord Stowel addressed them as follows : "GENTLEMEN OF THE GRAND Jr ar—The forms Of OUT laws call upon me to address you, and 1 find great satisfaction in hav:ng e , inform you, that but little will be brought before you that will requite of me much instruction or admonition. Your functions will be precisely the same in this Court as in a Court of General Jurisdiction ; and, from your habits of attendance in those Courts, you have that experience which renders unnecessary any particalar notice from me as to your dude*. There was in this Court, for a law which made a distir.etion between the crime of mur der, from what was the common law of the land in that respect. The common law established a distinction between the modes of persons being killed by another. To constitute murder, the com mon law required proof of previous tnalite, existing in the mind of the party charged against the party killed : end where no each proof existed, the eeath was considered as having been casual, Ned the party causing it was deemed guilty of the tumor off:nce of manslaughter. In regard of offences committed on the high seas, nu such distinction as that to which I have just alluded existed, but tite.ultiinate verdict of a jury in the case of a permit being killed by &nether, was compelled to be either a conviction for the capital' ieence. or a total acquittal, the crime of manslaughter not exist.. rig. R 7 a late statute, the law in this Court has been made similar to the common law, end your duties will be consequently the same as in other Courts. I mention these circumstances because I un.. ucratand that two, if not three bills fur murder, will be &Omitted to your consideration. If such should be the case, you will adopt the line of conduct which I loom suggested to you. There is, 1 ut.!erstatid, also another offence of high marignity, which will also 000:0 before you : it is a case of mutiny on boanl a merchant vessel, a crime wholt, by the law, is termed piracy. I need not comm.:An upon the dreadful consequences likely to result from such a crime., in r. great commercial country like England ; but this crime, great as it is, is generally connected with others of a still more malignant nature, for it often happens that it is committed for the purpose of tarning the ship into a pirate vessel, for the object of plundering others, and is frequently attended by the murdering the captain and nieces, officers on board, and carrying the property of the onr.crs to places widely different to where they destined it Mr. If zilch case sleuth conic before you, you will give it your careful attention. 1 hare now only to inform you, that the attendance of the Learned Judges who were to have assisted me here to-day, has been meta. :wry to meet their brethren in another place, in order to consider a yuestlon of very great importance. I therefore have thought it ne i.eyswiry to tidiest's the Court after you shall have considered your las, until Tuesday, on which day I hope you will all of you give . yeur,mtendance • most probably it will be Inc the mere purpose being aiseliarged . . But as it is possible that circumstances may rend q it nunassary that you should on that day . resume your duties, la order to prevent a very long, delay adiumisteriug Justice to party:ashamed with offences, I trust you will not think much of tai, trifling trouble. I now recommend to pad the Immediate din e of your duties." (hand Jury then withdrew. CONSISTORT COURT, WEDIMIDAY, Ftn. 2. MONT•OUT r. MONTAGUE. Dr. ADDAMS said, that in this MC a libel had been brought In by Mrs. Montague, praying for a separation from her husband, George Conway Montague. It was pleaded that the parties were married at Gretna-peen, aid afterwards cohabited as man and wife ; but the libel had omitted to state two facts that, for the put pose of identity, were necessari to be mentiored, viz —that on the marriage of the parties they resided together at Edinburgh, and passed by the name of Mor.taine, and subsequently by the name of Thompson. The Learned Counsel prayed that these additions, together with a copy of a certificate from the officer, or assumed minister, at Gretna-green. might be added to the libel. Dr. JE s(NER, on behslf of the other party, rot °inning any op. position to the motion, it was granted. lIMITM I:. swirls. In this cause (one of separation, by reason of cruelty, promoted by the wife a)piroit the hosband)the husband had several times ap peared personally to the decrees of the Court. On a former court day he complained of the conduct of a proctor whom he had em ployed in the time part of the cause, put In a petition. stating the nature of hit complaint, and pitying to be dismissed from the suit. The Jut'ge then requited time to examine the contents of the petition, and the cause was assigned for hearing this morning. Sir C. RonTXSOX read the petition, which charged Mr. Blake (of the firm of Crickets, Blake, and Cricked.) his proctor, with negligence of hisinterests, collusion with the adverse party, etc.; after which the Learned Judge said the complaint formed a very novel feature, suctraa he never recollected to hate occurred before but upon *review of the circumstances stated by Mr. Smith, and contrasting them with the history of the ease, he did not see the least grounds for the complaint. As to the charge of collusion, it was one of the moat unfounded, misconceived charges ever made by one individual on the other. He ( Sir C. Rubinson) :mild speak to Mr. filLke's conduct, as alwa7s most proper ter the Interest of his client. For the vorpose tit encouraging any just complaint which might be well founded egainst proctors, he would say nothing about costs, and indeed, he was sure Mr. Blake would give him credit for Lot ordering ros:s under such circumstance:, Mr. BLasir CfiltC.l to the Court, that he certainly did not intend to accept costs under any consideration. Mr. Smith's petition was of course dismissed. WINNIWGTON V. WINNINGTO)r. This was a suit for a divorce by reason of adultery, promoted by Mrs. Winningtch against her husband. Mr. \Virningwn has pre ferred appearing personally throughout the cause. Sir C. It oui 24 sow said, that from what he had read of the cause, he was satisfied it was very capable of being argued, and he could only repeat his advice to Mr. Winnington to employ Counsel to defend him. It could not be supposel that Mr. Winnington could know the nature of the rations harms of the Court, so as to enable him to defend himself so ttfcctual:y as if he was defended by the Advocates cf the Court. That was the heat mode of obtaining justice. and the appearance of the state of the suit required it. Mr. Winn'ngton said, hefted considered the suggestions of the Learned Judge, but he had determined on defending himself pee s( nallv, confident that, from the description of the defence he could offer, he should be-able to show that the suit was a speculative one, anti instituted only for the parrose of extent ins money. Sit C. Rom ItsOrt strongly urged the adoption of his advice, and postponed the cause until a future day, in order that Mr. Winning ton might give it full consideration. Sir. C. RODIXSOX said, the 31st Canon prohibited proctors from prosecuting ',suit, unless signed by Counsel but he did not know how far that might refer to persons appeseing on their own behalf ; he therefore directed the Registrar of this Court to confer with the Registrars of the other Eerf"siaatical Courts, in order that they might ascertain whether persons were at liberty to conduct their own cases in these courts. POLICE. MANSION-1101:SE. A man, named West, who drives one of the Blackwall stage coaches, was brought betbre the Lorin Halton, charged with having furiously driven over a poor man, who is not expected to survive the dreadful injury he has sustained. A watchman stated, that at a little before nine o'clock, on the previous evening, as lie s:as on his beat at Aldgate, he saw two stage coaches running a race. 'file defendant was the driver of one of them, and he lashed his horses, which were going at a rapid rate, in order to outstrip his competitor. Both of the drivers appeared to be quite careless of the consequences of their rivalry, which soon proved to be most dangerous. The pole of the defendant's coach struck a poor old man, who instantly fell senseless to the ground, front which he was raised covered with blood, and apparently without life. He was taken to the watchhouse. where it was as certained by a surgeon that several of his bones were broken. The witness was not sure that the wheel of the coach passed over the old man. He took care to have the defendant in custody. A surgeon who attends the injured persons, sent a certificate to the Lord Mayor, stating that his patient, whose name is Cu., was dreadfully hurt ; that htg collar-bone and several of his ribs were broken, and that there was no probability of his recovery. The LORD MAYOR told the defendant he should take. up his abode in prison until the poor man's case wos decided. It was more than probable, his Lordship said, that the defendant would hove to answer in another place for the injury he had inflicted, and as Manslaughter cnuld sow be visited with penalties proportioned to the several degrees of the offence, a coachman convicted of it would be sure to taste of the greatest severities of the law. A ballad-singer was brought before the Lord Illsvor, charged with having assaulted another of the profession, while they were both pursuing their tern, ctive calling.. The detendant (a man about ?I) years cf age) had, within a few days, got possession of a song, in which the deeds of the Drury lane hero-ace recorded, anti he never failed to gather about hint a crowd of both sears in the wires to the annoyance of the busy part of the puldie. He was engaged in singing the song of which the following was the beautiful burthcn : " For the world may be d—d, so we're only let to see, Our gallant Kean of Drury-lane, so bright and tight is he." The effect of the poem upon the minds of the auditors was heightened by the appearance of the bard, who canied a paper lantern, with a candle in it, before hint, and cut two or three ludicrous capers at the conclusion of each verse. He was not, however, to have the field to himself. A rival appeared, and soon divided the attention of the tastefuLpeople, and his song was even in a more sublime strain than the defendant's, " Fore li it was better than the last," and each verse ended thus:— " And why should you blame hint for doing it so clean, If you want it to be done yourself, why send for Mister Kean." The defendant's jealous/ was moved to desperation when he heard this inimitable couplet, and he emptied the phials of his Irrath upon his opponent. The altars of Justice were obliged to interfere, and they introduced him to a place where he had the opportunity of amusing that respectable and poetical bed/ of men—the nightly watch. _ . The other poor son of Apollo was unable to attend, for after the removal of his rival he met with more dangerous competition. He got into a row, for be was rather of " the fancy," and had a leg broken. The defendant cried bitterly. He was, he raid, a respectable man, although he was in that line, and got his living by his voice in the streets. The only offence he had committed was that of having refused to move eway when he was desired to do so ; but he vowed that if the land Mayor would forgive him he would follow his profession with as little noise as possible, and never strike wotady. The LORD MAYOR consented to discharge the defendant, upon this assurance, but advised him to change his vocal profession fur some other which had no taint upon it. GUILDHALL. CRUEL THEATMEHT OF CHIMWEY-SWEEP Boys.—George Willorm Fountain, a master chimney-sweeper, residing in Rohin Hood -court, Shoe-lane, appeared yesterday before the Sitting Al derman, Sir Charles Flower, Bart., to a summons, for ill-treating his apprentice, John Brown, a child of about ten years and a half old, very diminutive, and apparently weekly, for his age. Frani the statement of the boy, his mother, and two of her neighbours living in Goldsmith's place, Hackney-fields, it ap pawed that the boy was sent out early on the morning of Wednes day se'imight, with John Williams, Fountain's foreman, to sweep a chimney. Williams , who is a tall stout fellow, hurried along the streets so fast that the bey could not keep pace with him, and the forma:returned with him to his master, requiring the assist. snce of I,lzown's fellow-apprentice in the lieu of him. This greatly incensed Ate muter, who, seizing Brown by his two ears, lifted him up by them and then dashed hint down on the floor. This he repeated once or twice, and the boy took the first opportunity to run ore to hie mother's, where lie arrived, his ears still bleeding, and his mouth swollen. His mother took him to Union-hall, where he had bees bound in March last; and, open being stripped, the Magistrates were so satisfied that too much severity had been exer cised, that they desired the mother on no account to suffer him to return to his master, and to lay a complaint against the latter at this office. The bey was also stripped before Sir Charles Flower yesterday, and, besides that one of his ears was still In a state that showed it had been in imminent jeopardy of being separated from the head, there was a mark on his lett hip, which he said was the consequence o(a violent kick from his mistress, and his body looked lank and emaciated. His mother stated, that the day before he ran , away he had Leen kept altogether without food, but that when lie did get it, it was of such a description that his 'stomach frequently rejected it, and Ins bowels became so weak, that they had lost the power of retention. There was a large scar upon his left elbow. In reply to the charge. Fountain dented having touched the boy's ears at all. The boy had not been at the business long enough to have his knees and elbows hardened by repeated climbing, and the sure elbow was a common thing with young sweeps. This charge of ill-treatment was trumped up on purpose to give the mother an opportunity of " raising the wind." The boy had been et the bupiness before he came to him, and the former master failing in paying up his instalments of the purchase money for the boy, the iruther preferred a charge of iii-treatment against him at Union hall, and the indentuses were cancelled. klhe then brought her child to him, and after the binding, he paid her her demand -21. 13s. She at the same time told him she could hate got 3/. for the boy front Mr. Appleton, a swoop at Hackney. As to victuals he fared the same as himself and wife exactly--living mostly on baked beef or mutton, and potatoes. The boy was very dirty in hip habits, and very saucy. Williams, the (woman, corroborated this statement genera/1y as to the saucy conduct and dirty habits of the boy. The mother, being recalled, allowed having received money for the child, and diftired only as to the amount, insisting that 355. was all she got for him of Fountain, instead of 2!. ltts. She denied any lode:aim of again disposing of the child, and said if his THE BRITISH PRESS. • dentures were now cancelled, Mr. Percival, the banker, would place him in some school. The boy was again questioned, and stated, that he did lot know his prayers—had never said any—Dever went to church—slept on a bed—set the same as the rest of the family—two slices of bread and butter for breakfast, and meat foe dinner, but could not tell what kind of meat—was sometimes rolled in the soot, and beat with broomsticks. Williams had best him, at home and-in the streets— the last time because his feet were sate—his shoes hurt him, and he could scarcely walk. C Ftowel--Good God, how shocking a recital have we heard this day ! Are we in a civilised country ? "Can children be bought and sold with impunity, at so much per head ? Mr. Heresford (the chief clerk)—A similar purchase was exposed at another police office only a day or two ago. Sir CHARLES FLownn—Why, in the• present state of society here, such bas4.tains seem to equal in 'enormity, the African slave trade. As to the boy, he has been brmght up like a Hottentot— , neither in the fear of the Deai' nor the Almighty. You, mother, you, who have been so hardened as to tell your own child to a sweep, you are a disgrace to the name of Englishwoman, and to the sex to which you belong, and you shall never have the oppor. I *unity of bartering him away again. Let the boy be taken care of I' in the Comptcr until the presence of another Alagistrate can be obtained to cancel the indenture, and until I have seen Dlr. Per cival, and arranged how he shall be disposed of. That the boy has been ill-treated, I am quite satisfied, and not only by Fountain himself, but by his wife and the foreman, and I shall therefore direct all three to be prosecuted by the City Solicitor. The parties were then ordered to.tind bail, and the City Solicitor called iu and instructed to proceed. BOW-STREET. Yesterday 11r. Pat x Diem OAST, the Barrister, accompanied by two or three persons connected with • Dissenters' Meeting-house In some court in the Strand, applied to Sir R. Bina rE to issue a summons for the appearance of lir. Charles Pitt, of Adam-street, Adelphi, to answer to a complaint which he was prepared to sub stantiate against him, for unlawfully disturbing • congregation, assembled for the purpose of divine worship. The disturbance complained of was, that on a Sabbath-day, when • congregation had assembled at the meeting-house in question, and one of the persona who yesterday attended with Mr. Prendergast was address lug the rest from the pulpit, Mr. Pitt suddenly rose in the body of the place, and exclaimed—" Call ye that preaching ? A pretty fellow, truly, you are, to preach and attempt to instruct your fellow men in the sacred truths of religion ! You, who do not know the commonest rules of your own language, and are equally ignorant of the subject upon which you presume to hold forth ! Come down, poor man, and let me ascend the rostrum." The conse quence of this interruption was, that the discourse was stopped, and finally the congregation broke up in confusion, without finish ing the usual service. Sir B. Bt ex 1E asked if this was not the same occurrence upon which he had been befote applied to, and which was afterwards, upon his referring the parties to the Sessions, brought before that tiihunal, and disposed of ? Mr. PRENDERGAST replied in the afErmatire. Sir R. Bramiu—Then how can I be expected to Interfere In a case that has been disposed of at the Sessions ? Mr. PRENDERGAST said the case was disposed of at the Ses sions without going to a Jury; the Chairman stating that the per son charged ought to have been previously taken before a Justice of the Peace, and held to bail to appear at the Sessions I and that not having been done, Mr. Pitt was not legally within the cog nizance of the Court. His (Mr. Prendergasia) application now was, that this preliminary step, declared by the Cheurman to be in diepensible, might be taken, in order to bring Mr. Pitt before the next Court of Quarter Sessions. Sir R. IhnN is asked if the person who pas preaching on the occasion in question was present ? A man, having the appearance of a decent mechanic, stepped forward, and said he was the person who was interrupted by blr. Pitt. _ Sir R. BIRNIF. asked him if he had taken the oaths prescribed by the 19th of George 111., and obtained a licence to preach ? The man said he had not ; he only officiated occasionally. Alt. PRENDERGAST said he had never been required to do so. He was ready to take the oaths at that moment. Sir R. Brads-1 believe he is liable to a penalty of 101. for preaching without a licence. I.llr. PRENDERGAST said, that' by the latest Act of Parl'Anient, a person preaching without a licence was exempted from the penal ties awarded by the 19th George 111., upon his being willing to take the oaths prescribed when required to do so. This person was ready to take the oaths at that moment. Sir R. Bias ir —I shall not require him to do so. He was not a licensed preacher at the time spoken of: 1 shall not grant a aumatcns. _ hir. PEENDE*GAsT—Why, this is very odd, Sir. I have got witnesses here to prove the offonce, and why should a summons be refused ? _ _ Sir R. BIRNIE—Why do you not take your answer, Sir? I say I wig not grant a summons—neither will I give my reasons for refusing it. Mr. Penn:mm:4sT (rather warmly)—Why should you be of. fended, Sir? I know of nothing that has been said at which you should be offended. Sir R. BIN NI E—lndeed I hare taken no offence, but you seem rot a little offended. _ _ - ..... - -.....---- PAIENDEUGAST—YeS, I do feel myself nffencled at your putting your interrogation of " Why do you not take your answer ?" I think you intended offence. Sir R. Rinutg—Well, Sir, you may think what you please, and go elsewhere, and coal your temper. Mr. PRxWDERGAST (sharply)-4 wish you good morning. I suppose you are aware that we may apply for a mandamus S Sir R. lit HMIE—You may adopt shat course you please. The parties left the office. R. Palmer. one of the Sextons of St. Martin's parish, attended before Mr. 11ALLe, to answer to a charge of having secreted the body of a child which he was employed to inter in the burial ground of thet pariah, in Drury-lane. It appeared in evidence, that a woman of the name of Ford, the wife of a mechanic, residing in a court in Castle -street, Leicester square, was delivered in the early part of last week of a child, which died on the Silt day from its birth. It was agreed upon that it should, to save expense, be buried as a rill-born child, and an undertaker being applied to, brought a coffin, received payment for that and the burial tees, and took away the corpse in the coffin, in order to leave it with the defendant, who was to inta it the next day at one o'clock, when Mrs. Ford's sister and another person were to attend to see it dune. When they went at the time appointed, they saw the defendant at the burial-ground, and he told them that the child was already interred. Mrs. Ford's sister asked where ? and the defendant pointed to some loosened earth, and said, " Why, there, with two other children." She was not satisfied, and re. quested to have the ground opened. lie said, she must pay Is. for having that done, and she told him she did not care about paying Is. so that she could be satisfied. The defendant then hesitated, and at length refused to open the ground at all. This conduct ex cited strong suspicioa, and a search taking plat: in his house, the coffin with the body of the child was found in a cupboard. In' which bread and cheese and other necessaries of life were de posited. The defendant, in answer to the charge, said, that the under. taker left the corpse at his house in his absence, and that his wife put it into the cupboard, and forgot to tell him of it. The undertaker stated, that the defendant was not at home when he left the corpse. Mr. HALLS said, how was it that the defendant asserted that the child was actually buried ? it was a cue which could not well be brought within the Act of Parliament, so as to warrant a cri. minal prosecution ; but he should take care that the Parish Of ficers of St. Martin's should be put in possession of all the facts, that they might deal as they thought proper with the defendant. Palmer was discharged. UNION.HALL. EXTENSIVE ROBBERIES BY SERVANTS.—Yesterday Wallace, John Newman, John Rogers, and John Field, were brought before the Sitting Magistrate, L. B. ALLEN. Esq. charged with having robbed their employer, a ehymist and drug. gist, of a quantity of quicksilver and other property. John M alker, foreman to Mr. Bowling, chemist and druggist, of No. 18, Kent-street, stated, that the three first-named prisoners are porters in the service of Mr. Bowling, and Field was also em ployed as a laboratory man. For some length of time, great quan titiez of lozenges, quicksilver, and other goods, have been misted from the warehouse. In consequence of the heavy losses sustained from the depredations, an apprentice, named Biggins, was placed iu a situation in the laboratory, for the purpose of ascertaining whether any of the workmen engaged there had a hand in the robberies. The lad had no sooner taken his position there, than from his con. cealinent he observed Field enter the room, take a bottle out of his pocket, and till it with quicksilver, from one of the vessels which contained the IllineTal; after which he returned it into his pocket, and left the place. This fact was communicated, and from sub sequent information, the other persons were also implicated as be ing concerned in robbing their master.

DUNGAIITON, JAN. 26.—The dwelling-house of IT. T. Gee, Esq., at Lisarow, near Ardmore, in the county of Waterford, was maliciously set on fire, between eleven and two o'clock on Monday night, by some person or persons unknown. The house and nearly every thing in it was con med. The family escaped with barely sufficient clothes to cover them. The greater part of the house was newly thatched. The tire was put under the thatch at the rear of the house in four or five different places. Shortly after the family had escaped from the }tames the entire roof fell in. Mr. (me was well liked in the country. No cause can be assigned for this outrage but his having some time since distrained a tenant, who owed him considerable arrears. A large reward will be effered for the discovery of the per petrators. A meeting of the Magistrates is expected to be called to investigate this outrage.—Wateribrd Mirror.

THE ARM r. ____......._ R OF THE THIRD COLOL'R TO THE SECOND ESTORATION (QUEEN'S ROYAL) REI3I3IENT OF FOOT. On Monday, the 31st January, the Third Colour was restored to the 2d Regiment of Foot, or Queen's Royale, by Major-General Sir Henry Totreas, Adjutant-tieneral of the British Army, in the presence of a numerous assemblage of distinguished visitors, among whom were several Officers who on various eventful occasions had commanded the Regiment. At a quarter past one o'clock, Lady Torrens, accompanied by Colonel J. Macdonald, Deputy-Adjutant-General, Lords Darnley and Clifton, Colonel Sir A. and Lady Christie, Admiral Sir R. Moorsom, Major-General Barham, Earl of Dalhousie, General Mundy, General Ramsay, Sir John Brown, Archdeacon Torrens, Mrs. Col. Williams and sisters, lire. Cooper, llrs. John Knight and daughters, Mrs. Cutler, Mrs. and Miss 3lundy, and the Misses Crawford, with other distinguished characters, proceeded from the Government House to the Parade, where this fine Regi ment was drawn up in line, dressed in their summer uniform, with bayonets fixed; the regiment immediately formed squire, within which Lady Torrens presented the Colour, which was received by Ensign G. D. J. Raitt, and said, " May the Lamb (the badge of the Corps) plead for mercy in the hour of victory." The regiment immediately presented arms, and the band struck up " God Save the King." Sir Henry addressed his fine regiment In the following eloquent and appropriate speech:— " It is with his Majesty's gracious approbation that the colour Is now restored to you, which was presented to the regiment by its Queen, when the corps was originally formed in the year 1661, immediately after the restoration of Charles 11. to the throne of his ancestors. His Alejesty Charles 11. was then pleased to confer upon the 2d regiment of the Line the appellation of the Queen's Royal Regiment ; and her Majesty Queen Catherine, in order to give greater effect to the distinction thus conferred upon a corps taken under her special protection, was graciously pleased to pre sent it with a third colour, bearing the emblem of the Paschalleamb, which, as a Portuguese Princess, was the crest of her own Royal Family. The third cclour, which was green, in honour of lice Majesty, was in possession of the regiment for ninety years, and appears to have been lodged in the Royal Hospital of Dublin, when the regiment was on that duty in the year leto, where it has been recently found in a mutilated state ; and hls present Majesty having been graciously pleated to command that it should be re noted to the regiment, the gratifying task of faithfully copying it and working it for you, witn her own hands, has been claimed and perfeneed by Lady Torrens. The Paschal Lamb was originally eranted in this distinguished manner to the corps as the adorning badge of the regiment ; and although the colout has happened to be in disuse, yet the c,wistant possession of the badge has ever pre served to the regiment the appellation of the Queen's Royals, be cause the badge was the personal crest of her Majesty ; and I shall only endeavour to point out to you how well the regiment has served the country, under the influence of a banner thus rendered interesting and memorable, from the ancient and illustrious charac ter of the royal gift, and from the association with that event which has mainly contributed to uphold the glorious reputation of the corps, amidst all variety of services, and which, I am persuaded, will ever continue to hand this reputation down untaruished to the latest posterity. T Thc . ..v i i i m ich cn f t or w tr a ei s s first employed then n pl a o t y tuth ed in forming fo to rm th in e g c t ro he w garri n ol len rea o t f Br . a part of the Queen's dowry, and, as being the Queen's * regitri ;its services appear to have been applied in an appropriate manner to this object. It returned to England about the time of James the Seconds accession to the throne, and the first great and signal service in which the corps was employed was, in repelling the efforts of the Duke of Monmouth to wrest the throne from the reigning Monarch. Upon this occasion the Queen's Royale par ticipated in the mreorable battle of Sedgemoor, fought in the year 1683, and the discipline and valour of the regiment were then so ce lebrated, that the very name of Kirk's Lambs conveyed a sound of terror to the enemy, and served to keep those of the West of Eng land in awe, who were inclined to join the standard of the usurping Duke. The regiment under its banner as you now see it, next ap pears to have been employed in Ireland-.-at the relief of London. derry, in 1689, the battle of the Boyne, the siege of Athlone in 1690, and at the battle of Aughrim, and the siege of Limerick, in 1691. Soldiers have nothing to do eith politics, and therefore I only advert to those unhappy times of national dissension to show, that the regiment took a share in a succession of great military ex. ploits, that it was true to discipline anti Its banner,and thaaamidst all the conflicting circumstances of that memorable period, it never lost sight cf its obedience to its officers sad its devotion to the State. The Lamb appears to have been distinguished again under the command of King William, in French Flanders, from the year 1692, until the termination of the famous siege of Namur, in 1693, and, in 1704, to have borne a part in the memorable battle of Blenheim, under the great Duke of Marlborough, of immortal memory, where the glory of the British arms was raised to the pitch of exaltation never equalled until the modern exploits of our armies have shed even a more brilliant lustre around the British name throughout the world. The regiment was also in all the subsequent campaigns of * Duke of Marlborough, at the battles of Ramifies in 1706, o Oudenarde in 1708, 31alphiquet in 1709, and at the sieges of Lisle, of Tourney, and Nismes. On all these occasions, the Lamb, as you now see it before you, aceompa. nied the Corps, and it is, therefore, a source of pride to us all who wear the uniform of this ancient Regiment, that the Colour which has been the companion of so many glories, should now be restored to the possession of the Corps ; and that it should thus show, that the distinguished character of the Regiment's ancient services, has rendered it worthy of those modern laurels which it has gathered under the command of the great Abercrombie, in Egypt, and of the thrice immortalized Wellington, in the glorious and successful contest on the Peninsula, to which the ordinary Colours of the Re giment bear ample testimony. " Upon this occasion, Soldiers, I would willingly say nothing of myself, but the present moment is so intimately associated with my ailectior.s, as connected with her who has worked this Colour, and with my military pride, as your Colonel, in teeing your an. cient banner again committed to your charge, that I should really be devoid of the feeling which ought to actuate a man and an offi.l cer so fottunately situated, if the scene did not elicit some expres sion of the sentiments which> weigh upon my heart. I should fail, however, in any attempt to say all that my feelings would dictate. But I must assure you that I look upon it as one of the most dis tinguished events of my life, that I have had consigned to me. u your Colonel, the gratifying duty of carrying into effect his Ma jesty's g racious commands, that this honour should be restored to the Regiment. From the moment I attained the proud station of your Colonel, I have laboured for your honour and advantage, and for your standing, as an old Corps ought to stand, In the estima tion of the country. While I have lite I shall ever endeavour with the same care to watch over your interests, and, although my rank precludes me from accompanying you upon your destined service, my heart shall be with you ; and it shall form a principal feature in the comfort of my future life, until we again meet, to hear that your conduct keeps pace with your ancient reputation, and to learn. whether in quarters or in the field,—whether it relates to your moral duties in social life, or to those against the enemies of your coun try, that your behaviour fulfils the hope and expectation which is raised by your present high state of discipline." The Regiment, with Adjutant-General Torten at their head, then marched past the flag 'eluting, the grenadier company moved forward and formed in front of the flag, and when the whole Regi ment had passed, they starched with the flag to the left wing, the band playing the Grenadier's March. Ensign Raitt, holding the flag then stod a ew paces in advance of the o/ours, when the whole Regiment presented arms. Lady Torrens C then left the ground, and the Regiment dismissed. It is not, perhaps, too much to say, that the Queen's Royals are at this moment a military spectacle; in discipline, conduct, and efficiency, they can hardly be excelled. During the last twelve months a corporal punishment has not been inflicted in the regi ment, nor could a stronger testimony be borne to the affection and interest their Colonel has ever evinced for his Corps than the proud appearance it made on this interesting occasion. The men were entertained with an excellent dinner at the ex pense of their distinguished Colonel ; and Lady T., and a large party of her friends, visited them while dining. In the evening, a splendid ball was given in honour of the day, at the Bull Inn, Rochester, by Sir Henry Torrens, and the Officers of the Regiment. It was attended by the Earl of Dalhotede, Earl and Countess of Darnley, Viscountess Powerscourt, Lady Elizabeth Bligh, the Honourable Misses 11'ingtield, Lords Clifton and Ramsay, the Honourable Misses Bochum General and the Hon. VT& Monday, Miss 31unday, Mrs. and Miss Johnson, Miss Crauford, Mrs. John Knight, the Misses Cuyler, Sir A. Barnard, Mr. Smith, Colonel Fearon, Colonel Burgoyne and Officers of En gineers, Sir John Browne, and Officers of Cavalry Depot, Lady Browne, the Hon. General Ramsay, Colonel D Aguilar, Mrs. D'Aguilat, Colonel Macdonald, Archdeacon Tonens, Commis. sioner Cunningham, Admiral Moorsout, &c. The ball-room was fitted up with great taste, and supper served in the best style. The Queen's are to embark this day, for 1 Bombay. l'ew corps will leave their country with higher re -1 putat ion. It is a most extraordinary circumstance, that the Ensign Raitt, who received the colours on this occasion, is a descendant of the officer who was Ensign at the time the flag was laid aside. There has always been one of that family in the rcgiuseut ever since it was first raised. TO THE EDITOR PRRSS. --waetw— Sia—A greater number of works to facilitate the learning of the French listigua.o . e have been published, within the last few years, than ever was known before.
