[ ssi , ! b I first ILeat Offieir of the Crown was engaged, Another Complaint which he had to make was, that the pleedin gm were swelled to an tumorous length with the view of naming the plaintiff with coats at he shouldbe unsuccasful ; to a length which he would say was I ten times greater than any special pleader of two wears ripe.' nano would have extended them. The plaintiff had, however, :aging anon the honour of military men, upon his conviction a the truth of his case, and upon the conviction that military 10/0 would tell the truth, subpuened some, and he trusted that the Jury would by their verdict support the plaintiff against the supposed influence of the public sword and the real influence of she Treasury, and 'find him, as much as in them lay. compen sation for those di ffi culties and embarrassments which had beset him from the yr y moment that he had the manliness to stand nap against the usurped and illegal exercise of military coo. wad by the civil superinteedent of honourable dunces. The deposition of Badge Redmond, an Earpore, was then put in 'evidence. He knew bob plaintiff and defendant. In 18Z0 the plaintiff. was Lieut.-Colonel of the 2d West India regiment, writ h which he was stationed at llonduise, where the defendant acted as Civil Superintendent and Commandant. The defend. ant was Colonel of the York Chaeseurs, and was in the belied cu the deponent placed upon half-pay early in 1829, but this de. apemen( could not say how or iu what way he had come to this kenwledge. He remembered in the month of May 111•118„ that a }eared' Feder was issued to attend a meeting at the Government tacitase, Honduras ; that he attended the meeting, where the de talent purposed to the Garrison Officers if they acknowledged him to be Commandant, and that the Officers unanimously asiJ they nem saddled that he was l'ootmandant ; that the elainti6 refuted so attend the meeting. on the ground that Colonel Arthur Inning loan placed upon halt-pay, ceased to be a military man, sad could not be Commandant, and that he (plaintiff) being then the • 11,1130? o.:.eff in the Garrison, *as entitled to the command, that tar plaintiff told this to all the Officers of his Regiment, but said they might go to the meeting if they pleased. On that day the placed!' was arrested by order of the defendant, and the command if the attachment to Col. Lord, of the 2d West India' Regi na a hem sn order to draw torage for a horse asCommanding Officer. At the meeting the defendant recommended to the Officer* to have as little cornmunieatien as potable with the plaintiff. On that eseimig there was a poade, at which all the officers term assembled, and at thee parade the order of Colonel Bradley's arrest was read. For tie Jail days Col. Bradley was kept in close arrest, that he was under arrest altogether for about .en months, during which tune lie *as deprived of allowances amountingto about 10s. per day, and t;i which he was entitled as a Field Officer. • After the conclusion of Mr. Brougham's address, certain depo 'Mons w;re put in, containing the substace of the repredniations made at Honduras by the defendant, relative to the conduct of the plaintiff in the firemen muse of action. The Garrison Order. plat-, • mg the plaintiff under close arrest, was also put in and read, acd 'also the command to Captain Lloyd mutat command of the de eachnient. Mr. Baorcitam . called for the production of olden issued to , I the Governor of Ho:Auras in the years 1818, 1819, and 1820. They were refused, and Lord Palmerston was called for thepurpose of ascertaining the officer in VISAS hands such order were, and his Lordship said that Robert Luckins had them in Court. Robert 'Atkins examined —I was a clerk in the War Office in ehe yeas 181 4 and 1810. The York Chasseurs were disbanded in .Augnah 1819. The officers were not immediately placed on half. say, some not being no till they returned home. Colonel Arthur was not placed on half-pay till early in 1820. I have the warrant, dated the Ifteli January, 1820: the date of the warrant does not mean that he was receiving full pay up to that time. On the 25:h October,lBl9, be was considered on half-pay. The York Clim ates was disbanded at Quebec on the 24th August, 1319. Creilmexamined.—lt is most likely that Colonel Arthur received till pay after the month of August. The official communications -would pass through Jamaica. Communication was made to the Agent that be would be placed on half-pay at ad from the ;fit Jan. 1112t1. Rs-clisminol—Communications for disbandment are made ...banal+ the Adjutant-General to the Secretary at War. The coin. nanding-offircer knows it by the fact of disbandment. The agent knows of the disbandment. If it occurred is North America, it would take two months before it would be known. At home the agent would know of it withit, a week. l'ammunicatione arc made to several public offices when a regiment is disbanded, but they ' could bet be called `• Circulate." With respect to the disband ment of mg:malts abroad, the Commander-in-Chief has the sr-, :4011111MCIL Sir Henry Torrent, examined —I have the returns from Hondo en for 1819 and 1820, made to the Adjutant-General's department be the Superintendent of the colony, and I now produce them. 'l'te Staff Return of the 74th Augustal 819, states Lieutenant-Co tenet George Arthur ter be Commander, and Captain Noel, half pav, York Chaneurs, to be the Brigade-Major, station Belau; aed a second return of April. 1820, contained tlaesame names. Cross-examined.—These papers have come directly from Has., dims, and are signed by Colonel Arthur. I get the Returns in timeliest* direct, and also occasionally through Jamaica. ita-examined.---The monthly Returns have orders attached to , them, but I have none from Honduras. From Jamaica to lion. darns I hose Returns l but not orders given by subordinate offices in subordinate situations. The half-yearly Returns will give all , the information which I can give on this subject. I produce a si - trine half-yearly Return from Jamaica to the 24th June, 1809. 'Crossetaamined—The reduction of the regiment gold ass erect Caked Arthur's military command at the settlement of Emulates. • Re.examiced by Mr. Boot 6114%31—His rank in dm diebeeded regiment would be at en end. After disbandment he would have al commis:no, unless he acted under some other order, or staff, cornin6sion or appo intment. Crees-examin —Colonel Arthur held such an appointment by sitter of his o ffice of Superintendent of Honduras. The orders tabed to regulate these matters were Oven in writing. Ile was re. engaged as Supaintendant by the authorities at ham. The York tatheeents were not at Honduras, and therefore Colonel Arthur could not have a regimental command. He was, however, at one vine a Major in the ?di West India regiment, but was promoted in the York chasscurs before any of these transactions. If an offing of kighte rank arrived there he could not supersede the in terior officer in command, without a reference to the proper au tamitlea ; nor could be Interfere with the commandant, but he would have no right to command the eeperior. officer. An efficer un half-pay can have no command. The Superintendant of Hon das'. though on half-pay of his regiment, would have a eight to command any officer who might be there. General Fuller issued the order foe his appointment. This order was nand in April, 1817. This order only related to Honduras. • The deposition of General Conran, Commander-in-Chief at Jamaica, in 1818, was put in and read : it admitted theSdisband inent of the York chasseurs, but could not state the period. Lieutenant-Colonel •Freemantle examined—l was Deputy Adju tat-General it: Jamaica, but do not recollect seeing any order in the Bader-book *hewing that the York chaaseurs were disbanded; the Anny Lid would shew that. Charles Martin examined—l am a clerk at Cox and Green wooer.; I know Colonel Arthur's inking • the paper produced to Die Is his writing. I know early in IWO t hat the Yorlk chasseurs toad been disbanded by communication from Colonel Arthur. The tenor is dated in July. The Loon Crone JUSTICT—We must take it, I think, that defendant knew of the disbandment of the York Chasseurs in Au gust. 1819. Mr. BROUGHAM here reopened to put in the letter of Col. A r thith. as Military Commandant, dated 15th February, IMO, to Ma lay Bradley, then President of a Court-martial. The LORD Crater Jusoicx—All you can legally read is that part of it which applies to the exercise of defendant's authority at that time as military Commandant. So much of it I shall take dawn in my notes. A letter of the 21th November 11120, addressed to Lima-Col. Bradley from CuL Arthur, cummuniaming the announcement of pamlinator befog granted Col. Bradley to sell his Majority, and his therefore retiring from the service, was put in and read. Tim order of 31.1.1) March,lB2l, releasing Col. Bradley from all 12= restraint, was read ; the close impe,sonment or meet eau. in May, 1849, and ended on the 2d August following. lime the case for the plaintiff closed. Mr. ATTouexy.Oawxaae addressed the Jury for the defend ant, and stated, that on this occasion he would make no attacks on ago, individual connected with the cause. He 0ta177 wished the facts to-he plaid wadereteed on die part of the He took is toe granted that Colonel Bradley bad well conducted himself, ex. ceps on the occasion giving rise to this action; but Colonel Arthur ould not here acted otherwise than he had done towards the plain. tiff The defendant was an officer of great talent, and now em paged in a more dignified situation than he held before. Mr. Brougham 'denied to express surprise that the defendant was de fended by the Treasury ; but what other cosine was left to be per wed P The defendant was the Governor of a Culuoy, and upon his azepresertation the Government at home had acted; even she dismissal of Colonel Bradley originated in his own representation ua the transaction. The defendant was a public arrant, who had properly dim afterwards harged his public duty. and was recognised y the proper Authorities here. Why then tepees* surprise that wee defendant should be thueirelieved from the expense attending a oriel like the present? It was said that the pleadings here were of immeasureable length; bin not longer than the cie auttietances of the case required. There were tiro counts in the Jaclaration requiring two pleas, but the defendant's advisers never wished them beyond what necinity called fur. The plaintiff, in this cease, could easily state his case; but if the defendant was not generally prepared to shape his defence AS circumstances re. N aiad, considerable damage would semis to him. All that he Led to do was, to prove that C 4. : . Arthur acted to the best of hie j adgment, and that he was prepared to do. Cal. Arthur was an. peeentendant of Honduras, and therefore the al ilitary I:ntratiander ; Len Col. Bradley thought otherwise; and the ground of his so uoing was, that the regunent of Col. Arthur was disbanded. Ilse c.as the commencement of the.plaintiff's error. Col. Arthur re• enved his conimiision fear General Fuller, then Commander-in f.:ad at Jamaica, in the year 1814, without any reference rheum met to defendaut's regimental rank. The Commission was granted to George Arthur , en any allusion to any rank, and he con tinued to hold it when these tranaactions took place. Col. Bradley, Leftover, upon the dlebandnaent of the York Chasseurs, thought peeper to assume the comenand. Communications took place upon lac subject, and defendant wished plaintiff to write him a letter, stating his claims, in order that they might be referral to that au. tawny which would decide who was the right. Cu!. Bradley, however, decided for himself, and was dismissed the service. Calonel Arthur issued a garrison maw, requesting the at. voidance of Colonel Bradley at Government House on the dtld May, and (admit! Bradley issued a counter order., calling ea the officers to meet at his barracks. Could any thing be more umiak's, ? Aod yet, what was the condat of Col. Arthur ? was it rash ? No; h er Col. Arthur sent an officer to advise with Ciff e ßesAley, betel! to no purpose,; and then Arthur took that step which he was bound to tate. Subsequently Col Bradley ad- Mated be had used wrong, mod by such admission justified CoL Arthur. An act of disobedience, an set of mutiny was commit ted ; and Col. Arthur • would not be justified in releasing Col. Bradley from the arrest which he brought upon himself. In Honduras, of all other places, obedience to the authorities should be strictly en forced, in order to affind the British Settlers any chance of safety. So much then foe the first topic alluded to by his Learned Friend. Then came the next point. and h was asked, suppose of obedience, why continue Col. Bradley in arrest for mite months_ why not have brought him to a Court Martial ? The answer was, there was no means of doing so : Col. Bradl o e i v er e: a Field Officer, and there was no competent number of to form a Court Martial in Honduras. It was vaguely intimated, that he should be sent elsewhere fur trial ; but that was impassible, and all he could do was to send all the documents , to the proper authority at Jamaica, which was done, and subsequently forwarded to the lime 11 uards. up to ti,is point then, was there any thing wrong in the course adopted by Col. Arthur ? Col. Wadley remained in arrest, as he might yet be tried by a Ceort Martial, and he was allowed to be a prisoner at large. But it was said. that after the notification front his Royal Highness, he should have been instantly released t Col. Arthur could not do so, because the notification to Col. Brad t ley was not officially addreased to Col. Arthur • but when the ge neral order reached him, Col. Bradley was rebated on the 30th I March. Col. Arthur acted with no harshness towards the plain tiff.; he had no ill-will to him ;in fact, the conduct of Col. Atelier was jwatifiable throughout all the case. The length cf the confit*. went was not the fault of Col. Arthur, and the but moment Col. Arthur could, in duty, release the plaintiffs he did so, and he could not do so before. COI. Arthur had no alternative. Ile was desir ous. on the part of the defendant, that the whole of the circum stances should be known'; he had now stated thorn. and he felt confident the the Jure would protect an honourable man who had honestly discharged his duty tewards the plaintiff 31r. Bayley, of the Colonial 015ce, pnsduced the commission, signed by the Duke of Manchester, appointieg George Arthur a Major in the 7th West India regiment, to be the superintendent of Honduras; it bore date in November. IHI3. Mr. Knight. a clerk in the office of Cox and Greenwood, produced a commission from General Faller, confirming that of the 'Juke of Manchester. Mr. Bn:oreHAlr objected, as the authority of General Fuller to grant such commission was not abewn. The Lotto Cut Jt sr ice—if then , be any legal effect not proved by this, eau will have the benefit of it, Sir Henry Terrens again called and examined.—l know from official sources that Bennet Fuller was l'ominander-in.Chief at Jamaica, and he had authority to make appointments, and confer situations on persons having sufficient military rank. My opinion is, that as Commander on a station, General Fuller could appoint en officer on half-pay as well as full pay to a military situation. Mr. Buore IlaPt—This is mere ma:ter of opinion. The Loan Cut ts' JUST Ice—You arc among back to the old question of half or full par. Lieutenant Webb examined.—l belonged to the 2d IVest India regiment, and found Colonel Arthur as superintendent of' Hon duras when I juined, and after until 12r2. In May, 1820, I was acting Adjutant, and on the 224 May I saw Msjor Bradley, who dictated to me an order which I wrote; that order I returned to him. Major Bradley, from partieular einem:nuances, assumed the command, and the second paragraph of the under required the at. tendance of all offices* at his quartru. It was signed, E. Bradley, ' Major, Second 'West India Regiment, Commandant. I chewed I l the or der to Major Lord, and asked his opinion, which he declined giving. and I returned to Col. Bradley. I told him, under the cit. ' cumstancee I could not think of promulgating such an order, and , the Colonel said, be would put me in arrest. A Juror—Why did you not obey your superior officer ? Witness—lleceuse it was not my business to issue a garrison or. ' der, 1 only holding regimental rank. (In the next day I was at Col. Bradley's quarter ' s, Major Noel and Lieutenant Willis came there after guard mounting about ten o'clock ; Major Noel said he was 'desired by the conitaandant to require the attendance of Colonel Bradley at Government House, and he refused to go. Major Noel I then said he must put him in arrest, if he refused compliance, and (blond Bradley soil refused: and was placed in arrest. Colonel Bradley said be would not go, as he did not consider Col. Arthur to be the Commandants He was confined to his house acrd garden. Cross-examined—No one ever saw the order but Major Lord 11 I attended a meeting at the Government House; the whole of the garrison attended except Colonel Bradley. Ile put it if we would obey him as commandant, and we said we would ; there are ow! gardens to the houses, but a small railed enclosure. The voyage I from Jamaica to Honduras occupies Eve or six days. and the other way twice that time ; whey I left Jamaica there were a great many officers there of al l ) ranks. The ordere generally came from Vol. Arthur • I heard him say at the m e eting that he had aeorunduion, but be d id not say from whom. Lieutenant Willis exsinined—l acted as Secretary to Colonel, Arthur in 11130 ; I recollect the meeting of officers on the 22d May, at Government House ; it was convened by a garrison order ; art, r that I went to Colonel Bradley with Brigade 31ajor Noel. The witness corroborated Lieutenant Webb as to what passed upon the rlae:lion, but added, that if Colonel Arthur sent for him (Vol. Bulky) privately. be would attend. Colonel Bradley said it was contrary to the King's regulations to assemble officers in such a manner. Despatches were sent to Jamaica by the lint man of war that palled, as I believe ; Major Noel was relieved from Honduras and took letters ; I know of no despatches received from Jamaica between Nor. HMO, and March 1821 ; it ass Major Noel's busi ness to annmunuate gunman orders. Major-General Walker examined. -- In the year 1820 I was sta. timed at Jamaica, and for some time commanded the forces—from 11th June, IWO, to December in that year. I received despatches from Colonel Arthur relative to the arrest of Colonel Bradley. My answer is dated the 24th July. i transmitted the despatch to Sir H. Taylor. Sir Herbert Taylor examined.—l am Military Secretary to the Commeatior-in-Chief, and remember to have received despatches 'from General Walker, inclosing despatches from Colonel Arthur, which were laid berme his Royal Highness the Duke of York. The appointment of C•lnnel Arthur was not revoked by the dis banding of the York Chasseure, and could only be by the Coos mender-in-Chief on the station, or by his Majesty. Cross-examined—General Fuller could not give rank to a person not in the army ; a half-pay officer is not amenable to a Court. martial urilesaie have a Brevet rank, which can only be conferred by his Maj...sty. An officer on half-pay, residing at Jamaica, might be aletousted to command at Honduras, subject to the ap proval of his Majesty. In that use he would be subject to martial. law. bemuse of his having n;ilimry responsibility. The deposition of Major Noel, who is abroad, was read, and it was in substance corroborative of the account of the meeting given by Lieutenant Webb. It was admitted there were were not a sufficient number of officers at Honduras to form a Court-martial. Mr. BiIOCGUAM then rose to reply, and stated that his case, was untouched. He denied, first, the right to arrest, secondly, the exigency for arresting, and thirdly, whether span the notification of the plainriff b dismissal from the army, he should not have been instantly released tram the arrest. The defence set up for the de fendant to-day was never dreamt of by himself, and was not sup. I ported by the evidence they adduced. Ile spoke with all due re spect of the gallant officers who were this day examined ; but there was an kimnsatency in their opinions, which made them of little value. Colonel Arthur only acted in virtue of the appointment of Germal Fuller, it not having been stated whether he had the au thority to coerce. it. But though he might have had such audio rity when a man was a military man, yet when a man ceased to to PO, the authority ceased as well as the eligibility of the other party. No man but the King alone had the power of making a civil a military man; and the moment Colonel Arthur was placed on half-pay he was no longer liable to martial law, and of course nn longer to be regarded as a military man. The commission of 1814 was never shewn to the meeting of which they had heard so much, and that was proof that Colonel Arthur knew he could place no reliance upon it, though it was this day set up as the main ground of the defence. Had this commission been shewn-.had it been found to justify Co.onel Arthur in his command, there was I not a shadow of doubt that much of what had happened would have been fortunes* avoided. Colonel Arthur himself obsotred, that if he were on half-pay, he would be reteved, as it was desirable' that the superintendent of Honduras should have the command of the King's troops. Now why make that admission ? but because he knew that the moment be was placed on half-pay, that moment he ceased to be a military man, and therefore unqualified to hold the situation the authority of which he had assumed. But =ppm iug the right a arrest in Colonel Arthur, where was the exigency to keep Colonel Bradley for seventy-three days in close emit in a narrow room, mid sorrow runt, in that sultry and pestilential di mate? The law said, that in eight day* alter the arrest a Court Martial should lave been held, or as soon afar as might be am venient, while here it was proved that no despatch was forwarded to Jamaica till &whole fortnight after the arrest--why that delay ? why the close confinement? why the retention in eantody for nearly nine months ? How was all that met ? . . The LORD CHIEF J VST IC E —lf delay occurred, and that delay was caused by Colonel Arthur's superiors, Colonel Arthur was not liable for any eventual(onsequences to the plaintiff. 31r. Baotiotiam—Then take it ao —take it that all Colonel Bradley . suffered in his dungeon for nearly nine months, was not to be visited on Colonel Arthur ; atili, there was Colonel Arthur's del.; in sending the despatch to Jamaica, even if he had had the authority to arrest in the first instance. 'With these few observations he left the case to the Jury, satisfied that they would fairly dis charge their duty by an oppressed and meritorious officer. The LORD CHIEF JUST ICE, in recapitulating ;he evidence, observed, there were two questions to be considered here: the first was, had the defendant authority to arrest? and the second, was the period of imprisonment unnecessarily protracted? If the idefendant was the superior military officer at Handutas, he had the right most undoubtedly. Tne defendant had eseecised that authority with the knowledge of the plaintiff—although it must be admitted that the defendant did not well know on what ground he continued to be in the chief command at Honduras. ,Tice evidence of Sir Henry Tortoni went to show that a Captain.Commanslant could not be superseded in his command by the arrival of a Oda nd, until that Colonel showed a proper authority; and Si , - Herbert Taylor was of the same opinion. In fact, all the authorities here and that:, agrewd that the defendant was the superior officer, and there. fire he (the beamed Judge) laid it down as the law that the fact was do. Then came the question as to whether the imprisonment was continued for too long a time ? The defendant had no means of acnding a communication before he did, for that was by the limit vessel that sailed, and therefore no blame could be attributed to the defendant. Upon the first question the verdict would be fir the defendant ; and on the second it was for the Jury to say whether they believed the period of imprisonment to be unnecessarily pro meted. The Jun consulted, and found a verdict for the plaintiff—Da mages lOW., costs 40v. The Coutt rose at half-past five o'clock. The Court of Common Pleas closed their billings on I Thursday, having disposed of the Special Jury and Coin mon Jury cases at Guildhall. POLICE. M A RP.I.A -BON NE. Ma-Josteti WlLrttn PAILI. I N S.—VeMerazy. at one o. chark, this gentleman presented himself betore the presiding 3fagistratcs, Wm. Hoskins and Edmund GriflithA, Esqrs. and I.)rd Alontford, who was attracted to the office in c onsequence of ita tp.ing the day appointed for the final hearing of the matter so loos at issue be tween Mr. Parkins and the parochial Aura of illaty-la-boom. On the case being called on, Mr. LLOYD. solicitor to the parish, presented himself, and read the crder of affiliation made at the (inane'. Sessions on the 11 of August, 182'1, confirming that made at this office some time before. This order merely contained the usual averments and the award of ' 4s. per week, and the expenses, the whole of • which the defendant was to pay. The summons arched a debt to be due of V. 16s. upon the order. 1 31r. Oat re ty its then said, that as the complaint was that each a sum was due, the necessary proof must be oulduced. Mr. M`Naughten, one of the overseers of the parish, being then scorn. and examined by Mr. LLOYD, said he made the complaint. and the amount due to the churchwardens and overseers, on the order of a child sworn to by Hannah White against Mr. J. W. Par. king, was H. IGs. He came there to claim that awn. The order was signed by Mr. Rawlinson aod Mr. Uriffiths. Mr. Du NCOMBE, the solicitor to Mr. Parkin, then commenced crass.exarnirling this witness, as td the time of his entering into office, and as to how he became acquainted with the transaetions occurring before he came into office. Mr. I,t.ovn interrupted this examination, protesting egainst a course of proceeding which was at actual variance with the case. Mr. Huhcom au rather warmly exclaimed, " I . elesirc you. Sir. not to interfere in my examination of this witness.' Mr. I,toyo submitted to the Magistrates chat the questions put did hot bear out the case. Hoerr, er, it was thought advisable to allow the examination to proceed. Mr. Du XCOMBE then asked Mr. 3l•Naughten, upon the oath he had taken, whether he had not authorised them to retu.t show. ing Parkins the child. Mr. M'lCaughten replied be had not; he bad refuted no such thing. Mr. DvxcoseaE asked how he knew the child to be Mr. Par kines Mr. Illiaughten replied, because it was sworn to. Here another interruption took place; the Magistrate pronounc ing such questions totally irrelevant. However, the solicitor perti naciously persisted he was right in putting them, declaring he them bound to bare ethibited the child to Parkins by the Act of Parliament; and there was a great deal of suspicion about the case in their not having done so. Mr. Garr/tills said, if such a line of conduct was pursued it would be utterly impossible fur them to arrive at any conclusion.- It was absolutely of no use to ground an argument upon such pre mises. lie would advise him not, but to tura his attention to where suspicion did or might arise. Mr. On )(costae continent his examination of the witness as to whether he had authorised Parkins% attendance, and had caused the summons to be Wined against him. These question. being answered in the affirmative — Mr. Dr NCO MIRE asked whether there was any particular pmhi. button against fathers ening their illegitimate children while in the parish charge. Mr. 31`Naughten replied, not to his knowledge. Mr. Du mewing—Did you not know Mr. Parkins applied to see the child ? Mr. 31`Natigtiten—Not till lately. wcohag—llave you seen the child ? Mr. M•Naughten—l have, Sir. Mr. Irc 'moms E —What child ? Mr. ill•Naughten—The child of Hannah White, or Mr. Par kina's child, which you please. She has aworn him to be the father. . Mr. Dv wco MBE—When did you last see the child which you have sworn did exist? Mr. :N•Naughten—On the first Wednesday in the month of last June. It wu produced to the Board. It has iir.ce died. Mr. Du wcowne was about to continue this examination, when, Mr. LLOYD agaln hoped such really irrelevant questions wou ld not he allowed; is was $ protraction of the time of the office business. Mr. 11Jairrirms—Oh, no, let him go on; he wants to under. I stand the fact of the child's existence. In the further examination of the overseer. he said he merely heard of the child's death ; regular notice of it had been given ; the sums had been paid that were demanded by the persons usually ma naging such bounces- Mr. Parkins—Aye, this has arisen through your delegating your authority, which is extremely improper and disgracefuL Mr. Du R tossna—Where are the parish books ? Mr. 3l•Naughten—l have them not. Mr. ',Love denied eny authority to produce the books. Mr. Stephen Watts, chief clerk to the Board of Parochial Ma nagement, was then called, said proved having paid the stun awarded regularly to Hannah White ; he produced kis list of payments. Mr. lie N COMO): objected to the production of any thing but the books, as, according to every rule of evidence, it was decided, that when any testimony was given of a documentary kind, if there was any in existence better, it twist be produced ; therefore he felt I bound, both in justice to his client and the regularity of the pro ending. to call upon the Magistrates to have the books produced. Mr. ll RI rwrrits was of opinion that this did not fellow at all ; it eertaioly was a yule, founded on practice, in all cases to produce the best evidence, but the document produced was merely a kind of reftenher to the money of the mitoses. and 'misted his reconemien in the detail be was goat to give, and maid net by soy means be rejected; besides, It'ch'ed exactly to the point wished, and really he thought nothing was more desirable then ha production • tut, 1 1 nevertheless, as dm books were not produced, sad as day 11;11 de clined hringirg thews there, he did not see how he outdid *hp them to do it, and he believed their production totally unercesessy., Mr. Dencosise. with considerable ingenuity, resumed foe the production of the pariah books, but evidently was aware of his having no authority to cite. His objection was eventually overruled by the Magistrates. Mr. Watts thee read the items from bis tecinorands, by which it ap,-.eared the amount due was as Thorpe stated, 7L les. Mr. LLOYD, from his brief, furnished the witness with an item which he had not catered upon his memorandum. Mr. Parkins arose from his chair, exclaiming, " That MIR is acting very impertinently ; he is assisting the witness; he must net do it; the men, I suppose, has been long enough in the serviette know what he is about, and to know what evidence to give." Mr. Duucomez thought they could not go on without the I books, and said, if one man charged another with owing him a sum of money, as in this case, he assuredly was bound to shew him his books, to prove be did owe him the money. Mr. Game but the books will not prove anything; there must be some one to speak to their contents. Really I Wok the evidence quite satisfactory; the books are not requisite. Mr. Watts was then examined as to whom he had paid the money ; and on being asked as to how long he bad been in the parochial employ, he replied, 28 years. On Mr. LLowis remarking on the uselessness of pumiog such questions, Mr. Parkins exclaimed, " Sir, it is material; I shall have something to say presently." Mr. V. mu', in answer toe question, said, he did not know of Mr. Parkins's wish to see the child. . discussionSo a oia;etitniii;ed kind here arose, in which Mr. Parkins observed, he was not well treated; he was brought there by the parish office», and the witness was not allowed to answer some of the questions put to him. Mr. GRIFFITHS observed, such questions and matter so totally irrelevant had been proceeded in, and on points not bearing WI the case, that the witnesses might answer or not, as they pleased, the questions put to the= on such points. Mr. Li.ovo then examined Mr. Watts as to the whole amount of the claim on Mr. Parkins. Mr. Du scorrsz declared he would not allow such an examina tion. Mr. LLOYD.—I am here to perform a certain duty, and in this business I hare hitherto done a,. The case is resolved into the old hackneyed term, " a nut-shell," and does not admit of any dis cussion ; it is at the most a matter of account, and I shall now bring it to • close, by sfilleiag, from the evidence, the whole claim from the beginning as Mr. Parkins, and the amount not pidd, which is ail I gefowt Mit hattistplowad that, there is an cod to the use. Mr. Watts theft proved, that the whale sum was 201. 24., sad 7/...l6s,remained due. _ . . Mr. LLOYD here obeertri, hi would call Thorp, sod that Woo his rasa Thorp, the messenger, said, he had called several tinismenbse quent to the 6d. of May last, ford!. due on that daft ; bg bad Ma Air. Parkins, who had ;itemised to pay him, but had minim to him, saying he would not pay ; the business then went on, and up to the 7th ofJuly the amount due wan 7 1 . MC Mr. DUNCONNE—Vpon your oath did he ever say anything about the child to you ? MT. Thorpe could net recollect that he did ; but he told a long stn► about another child sworn to a nobleman. Mr. Dumoostag then proceeded closely to examine Thorp as to the child ever havingsexlsted; but the answers fully continued the previous testimony. This examination at length became so irregular, that the Magis. trate was obliged to Interim. Mr. Du siconaz declared the man who was giving evidence was the only one who could remove the degree of suspicion that was about the case. --- The other questions put were nearly similar to those we hare sl.' ready given. Mr. ti 1 IFITUS interrupted them, and was about saying Pelt thing, when Mr Parkins exclaimed. 1 want, Sir. to shew you-- 31r. tlyir FIT II S—Will you bear me. Mr. Parkins—No, Sir ; I am not to be stopped by you. Mr. a IVY I T sts—Prav be silent, Sir. Mr. Parkins—Sir, 1 meat insist— . Me . D RI rrirlis—Now, Sir, I tell you, I am not to be inter. routed by you. Siidown, Sir. Am I to sit ben, and continually to s^e the same ground gone over, that has been decided several times to be inegulaz ? we have only this to do with tbe matter— Mr. Du x 4. 0 M E-81r, I sin sorry to say that it is eltreellely unreasonable to putmethis course. Mr. OR —Now, once for all. I again repeat. I will lot allow you to go back to any transactions that have taken 020110 this ease, The feet is already sworn to; nothing can be deem Mr. Parkins—Yes, it is sworn to, but net proved. Mt. GNI rrlTivi—We cannot mike distinctions between what is sworn to and not proved. Mr. Duncomin asked Thorpe when the money bad been last paid by Mr. Parkins? Thorpe—Up to the Ist of October, NV, wait the last sum be Mr. Parkins said, when he had paid that madly, he did it sods au express understanding that he was to see the child. Mr. Gntemits was love 'boat to make SO observation. Mr. Parkins—Sir, do nut interrupt. Mr. GIIIIEVITIIS said he must do so, it being so irreviar. Mr. Parkins however persisted in making some observation', which, from the confusion that prevailed, our reporter could um catch. Thorpe was finally desired not to answer any questions japan such subjects. Hannah IVhite and bet ',other were then desired to stand up. Mr. Parkins—Aye, exhibit them. This, Sir, is part of the thing. Bring them forward. It was decided. however, that their evidence was unnecessary. Mr. DUSCOSISC begged be might be allowed to ask Thorpe what had become of the chikl. litorpo—Sir, it is dead. Mr. Du roars—Hut what has become of it now that it is dead ? Thore-lt is buried. Mr. I,anfFITHII-14 . bit have we to do with a dead child? We are inquiring about a living one. The death of the child does not form part of the case. Mr. Parkitus—Ask him what child he means that has died. This question being put. Thorpe answerod, the one sworn to Mr. Parkins by Hannah White, which he had sem at the sessions. Mr. Parkins--I deny it. I Hannah White here loudly egelai;ned, " You did see the child; ' you false man." After another protracted discussion. Mr. Parkins commenced addresaing the Bench, and aftercondemn ing them in very forcible terms for what they had done in his ease, &rimed, that had Mr. Rawlinson been present, be would have seen ; the grievance he had to complain of, namely, the administration of laws so improperly framed as those regarding osatard children, and which rendered the officers the tools of every kind of profligacy. The coterie of the parish hat publialied him in every shape to the world, and Thorpe was the hero, as he seemed to play thefirsl fiddle to the sapient group fur which that gentleman (we believe Mr. Lloyd, as he indignantly repelled the Lx-Sherifi's language, de claring him to be the circulator of scandal and burner:tiny). Mr. ' Parkins desired him to be silent, observing, he was impertinent, . and after a variety of other observations, couched in very tiguraiive language, in which he declared that a man named ‘Vickstead was the tither of the child, he said, so convinced was he of the fraud attempted to be imposed on biva, that be would not make himself a ; willing agent to anything of the lied ; therefore he would not enter Imo any compromise, and desired them to do as they thought it. Mr. Ontrrirns—Don't be rash, Sir; I have but to commit you, if She money be not instantly paid. lam sitting here to ex ercise equal justice to all men. Sir!, t r beref rark or l e ns— do as t amyouanthaindk"ptpe—ufor. the exercise of equal justice, Mr. Gam runts—Undoubtedly, Sir. I will; and as I never make any distinctions, so in this cue I do my duty without re. spun to persons or portios, and therefore commit you to the House of Correction for three iiiondis. I have now disposed of this case, and have dune niy duty. Mr. Parkin*-I'et y well. Sir, if you want the money, you must take the means tire law allows you. Let rue see your warrant of committal. Mr. Parkins then eircre.d into a squabble among the parish officer*, declaring he would indict them all for a conspiracy, and turning to the Rev. Mr. Bengoud, one of the Curates, said, Are you a Parson ? if you have any thing to do with diesel shall include you in the prosecution." On the warrant bicng made O'A t it was placed into the hands of Mr. Parkins for perusal, and he having done so, went into the Clerk's office and paid the Chief Clerk, Mr. Mallen. the sum demanded, 71. Pis. with Its, bd. costs, and then left the office. The office was crowded to excess. QUEER:SVGA RE. Yesterday Mr. Thaws ('hairrellor, proprietor is:a Kensington stage, appeared to an information, as the instance of Johnson, the well-known informer, charging him with carrying on his coach one passenger more than allow .rd by Am of Parliament. George Martini militated as Johnson's witness on this occasion. He stated, that on Saturday. the 24th instant, he saw the defend ant's stage-coach, drawn by two horses, in the Strand. There were eight persons on the dickey and roof, being one more than allowed by law. lie did not obserre what number was on the coach. The defendant, in reply, denied that it was a stage-coach t there was no number on it, although it was like a stage-cinch. He had let it out as a glass coach to the family of Mr. Brown, a gentle man in the War Office, to convey his family to the water side, as they were ping to Margate. Martin said, the words " Kensington." and " Thomas Chancel lor," were painted in large letters on the body of the roach, and therefore be thought, of course, it was what the law calls a stage coach. . . 31r. Masa LAND observed, that the conclusion was that it WU a stage-coach. The defendant said, if he put no plates on the coach, and let it out as a glass coach, it could not then come under the denomination of a stage-coach. Alr. GREGORIE—Besides, we have not a tittle of evidence to prove that the mach was let to Mr. Brown, and not plying for pas aeons as a stage-coach. . The defendant said, he would produce Mr. Brown if two or dove weeks were allowed him, or if convicted he would appeal. The Magistrates convicted him in the penalty of !. and 14s. 6d. expenses.-11e then gave notice of an appeal. Johnson also preferred an information against a Mr. John Bark owner, for having a cart, s ithout having entered the same, with its nuMber, at the proper office. John Byers, Johnow's told earl, said, that op the 19th instant be saw the defendant's mitt with the Na CMS au, and on going to the hackney-mach office, he obtained a espy Odle entry of a cart of that numbs, so long back as the yew 1775, by one Roger Aucktusater. Tito eopy tithe entry was produoni, o 2oh Mr. WILLIAMS, as Ssktdtov for the defendant. submitted not be received as evi dence; the bask itself ought to We hew produced. He alto ob jected to tbeinforteation being the • ve. "drive and cause ue be driven," instead of dui •• " drive or cause to he driven." There was no peed the Mb defendant did drive sod men le be driven ; that sentinel two charges, end did am separate them. New it wen that the defendant's ser vant drove, and therefore be entinditisd the information must fail. The Magistrates, upon rehouse to another clause of the Act, found that all doubts were edema up by maLing the owner of the cart responsible. They therefore ainseived that the last objection win nut good; but on account tithe neat of sufficient proof of the entry, they dismissed the inhuman. Them was another information assist a poor widow for a simi lar offence, but the told Johnson dim she was very poor, and this appeal to his humanity had the desired effect; for he instantly begged lave to withdraw the inhumation, and even paid the costs owl of his mint pocket. A endue= of fortune, named Lary, was charged with assault- linc i At e si groom. complainant stated, that the dispute ;rose respecting some fowls belonging to his master which had the distemper, and they died so suddenly as to make his master imagine he had killed them. All his assertions to the contras , were of no avail ; and his master, after d.--g him for a rascal, and using other epi theta, took a dead fowl from some muddy water and threw it in his face. Mr. Lacy denied throwing the fowl in his face, but still adhered Ito his charge of the servant's killing the fowls. Mr. MAIIELAND ordered Mr. lacy to End bail for the assault. DROWNING. CORONER'S INQUESTS—Yateribty an Inquest was held at the Red House, Battersea, before Charles Jemmett, Esq. Coroner, on the body of Thomas Lonsdale, a tine youth, who was drowned in the River Thames. It appeared in evidence, that the deceased, in the company of his heather and several of his companions, hired a boat on Wedaesday last near Westminster Bridge, and proceeded to that part of the Thames, opposite the above house, for the purpose of bathing. The deceased, on going into the water, sunk, and remaining under water for a length of tune, an alarm wal made, and a fi sherman Dear the spot got him oat, but he was (mite desk Verdict —" Accidentally drowned while bathing." Another Inquest waa held at the Eight Bells, Hillingdon, on the body of Wafts.

On Wednesday night lest, at about half-past 11 o'clock, an alarm was made that a ems had been drowned in • canal in Mr. Goes park. He imme. direly proceeded to the spot with other pelotas, and in a short time the body wm got out of the water quite dead, and brought to theabove house. The deceased had been in the water two hours.

It appeared that the deceased proceeded to bathe in the Regent's Canal with his brother and some young friends, when the deceased slipped, and fell into the water, under which he remained for a considerable time, is consequence of none of the bystanders being able to spim, and consequently afraid to venture after him. At length a young gentleman, with much spirit, jumped into the water and brought the deceased ashore i but although every re. weedy was resorted to to oar:, him he died soon after. Perdlet--" Accidental Death." A fourth Inquest was held at the King's Arms, Park-rood, Islington, on the body of George Greenaway, four years of agr.
