Before Lord Nonsuar wed a Special Jury. HARNEY V. PERCY died ROBT. SIMPSON. The case was opened by Mr. Rot.i.t:Erus, who stated it was an action for assault and battery, and the Plaintiff laid his damages at 20001. Mr. H. D. Gitany, in a most elegant, lively, and interesting manner, entered into a detail of the facm, which were as follow :—After drawing a compari son between the rank of the parties, Mr. Harney being the son of an hotel-keeper, and Mr. Percy Simpson, a man of family and ailiuence, the one had distinguished hirnselt in the rebellion as a brave soldier, cud, in the Meath Militia, acquitted himself, when sent on a dangerous service, with un exampled intrepidity—the other, the " gallaut bearing Percy," is an Ensign in the 6th Garrison Battalioni whose name was not in the annals of glory. On the 16th of August last, Mr. Harney went to a hall, given at Mrs. Dunbar's boarding house, in the Black Rock ; he was introduced by a friend to a young lady, with whom he danced the first set after supper; while swim; do ea the middle, at the request of a gentleman, first supposed to be Mr. Simpson, the music stopped. Mr. Harney called out to it to go on again ; it did so. and the set was finished. Mr. Simpson then said to the music, in a very sarcastic manner, " now that the honourable gentleman has danced down, you may stop." Mr. Harney replied, " that he hoped he was an honourable MAU. and, Mr. Redcoat, I have worn His Majesty's cloth several years. and I hope I have never disgraced it, Mr. Redcoat !" Mr. Simpson, flirting a fair is his hand, an swered, " I do riot know you ; we fashioualdes don't know you." • Mr. Harney replied, "Sir, you are better adapted to flirt a fam than wield u sword." After this Mr. Simpson retired amon! , the ladies, and took no farther notice of what he then said. About as hour after a stranger called Mr. Harney aside, and told him, that, from his ; gentlemanlike conduct, he thought it right to put him on his guard against a plot, which was to•flog him. to a short time the Ensign, with a number of his coinpa- Atone, approached Mr. Harney, and thus addressed him, " You have offended we, put down your hands,fellms ; if you du not make we an apology, I will dog you." In vain did Mr. Harney remon strate, the ga/least Ensign took off his sword, ob mMed a rattan from some one, which he first ap plied to the shoulders of Mr. Harney ; and, think ing that chastisement toe trifling, had recourse to his fists, and beat him severely. Mr. Harney re sorted to no reparation, such as one gent eman is entitled to demand for an insult from another— he had recourse to a Court of Inquiry, where • pow my honour party decided against him. To this Tribunal, and to this Jury, he applies for an atone ment for the insult. Mr. William Austin sworn and examined by Mr. COULD—IIe farther strengthened the truth of the facts alleged by Mr. Grady; saw Mr. Harney dragged into the room by Mr. Simpson, by the breast. and afterwards was assaulted by him. Mr. Simpson is a large athletic man—Mr. Ilarney a small man—he gave Mr. Simpson a sound blow 011 the cheek—the parties were then separated. Cross-examined by Mr. Wurrssrox —llis tes tiinnny remained unshaken. William Fitzgerald, examined by Mr. ROLLEII TON—SiIw Mr. Harney dragged into the room by Mr. Simpson, in a ruffianly manner, and was struck several times by him with a cane; he was likewise struck by a second person, whom he could not identify. Jame. Stewart. examined by Mr. Itor.tirsrov— Believes Robert Simpson struck fizretey—took hint in his arms to prevent bun striking Ilarney behind —knew him to be his brother, by his calling hint so. Mr. IVIIIITZSTONL, for the Defendant, maintained that the expression, in which Mr. Harney called him kei/cuat, implied that he was a disgrace to his profession ; and that, during the remainder of the night, Mr. Harney insulted Alr. Simpson with op probrious language, who only put his hand to his breast to prevent his going out of the room. The Court of Inquiry acynitted him, and like. wise the Sessions Grand Jury. Mr. Dillon 111 , Narnara, examined. Cross . -examined by Mr. COULD—Declared that Mr. Harney was such a character, that no Gentle man should associate with him. During this wit ness's examination, there was much laughter in Court, excited by the Gentleman's extraordinary principles of honour, as he thought them consist ent with the blond of the M.Namarit's„" notwith standing he could not define what tees, or what was not gentlemanly conduct. Mr. R. Cornet was examined--!tis deposition si milar to the last. Mr. Harvey, Attorney, prayed an alibi in favour of Robe►t Simpson. Lord NORIIIVIRY then gave his charge to the Jury, and desired them to find such damages re , would compensate the one, and give a good le,.cosa to the other ; that It. Simpson was not guilty, end let hum have his coots. The Jury retired, and, after considering 40 mi nutes, brought in a verdict of 1501. damages against the Defendant, Percy lampoon, to the satisfaction of a crowded Court, as it appeared a mo.t wanton vet. 7. The Chapel of Bray, which hu been for some time in a state of decay, almoat verging to rum, and also been inadequate to afford accommodation to the congregation, particularly in the summer season, in consequence of the great influx of 'ma ple from the metropolis, the principal ltommi Ca tholics of the parish hare lately commenced the laudable tack of repairing and enlarging it by sub scription; but their congregation tieing chiefly com posed of labouring poor, they found their utmost exertions inadequate to raise the necessary sum, and, therefore, have been under the necersity of extending their solicitations to their more op u lent Protestant neighbours.

He has found a great variety of non-descript plants and animals, and particularly the rare sa tiety or Zea Moys, or lodide corn, which wad b ., great an object of research, in cm:sequel). c of its being capable of cultivation ill these countries. The ' usual variety cannot be cultivated with adiantage in any climate of •Europe, north of Paris. In the south of Europe, it forms a very considerable part of the food of the poorer classes. and was used by the ancients under the name of putentet. We are happy to ...ate that Mr. Bradbury acs received by Mr. Jefferson, late President of United States, with the most marked attentliiii.— He resided a considerable time in his house, curi was eccompanied in several excursions by Culotte-I Ronaldson, Mr..lefferson's son-in-law, a most d 1- tinguisheil natural historian. Mr. Jefferson con gratulated Mr. B. and the United Kingdom of Britain, upon the discovery of this rare species of Indian corn, for, said he, " I Inn convinced it will remove, for the future, all possibility of scarcity la your uncertain elimate." How deplorable sill it be if we must ever cull that man our enemy, whose bosom glows with so benevolent a sentiment ! The new variety grows better in a moist than in a dry atmosphere ; and, in 111 r.
