EXTRAORDIX3RY CASE OF RIOT. Thii inhabitants of Warwick and Leamington have lately been nmeh excited by the visit of a Miss Mary Ann Wassail to the for tiler place, who has been persecuting Dr. Wake, by following him min place to place like an evil genius, for the purpose of procuring hp evidence to the hand-writing of a person deceased. The lady '.,p ears to be about 45 years of age, of a florid complexion, and •eiy animated and eccentric manners. She is, we understand, a ladyurconsiderable property, and went to Warwick attended by her nephew and niece. She had industriously circulated reports in the town to the prejudice of Dr. Wake, who was on Friday week jimmied by a mob, in his gig, and had a narrow escape. ?dim Was sail was apprehended, and the circumstance was investigated before tletaleyor on Saturday and Monday. The facia of the case are briefly filmier—The lady in question has now a suit pending in the Court of Chancery, by which she seeks to obtain the payment of a sum at between fi and 7,0004 out of the estate of a ptr•on named Pinfold, who died in Paris some time ago ; and which that gentle- man, whofonnerly paid his addresses to her, borrowed from her to'' liquidate a debt of honour. The lady now produces a document, removing to bcidgned by Mr. Pintidd. in which he acknowledges tillo.itsetice of the debt. It is drawn upon a common piece of paper, evidently by a person totally unacquainted with the usual penal form, and been the name of no attesting witness. Tie Lord Chascellor, according to her account, said, on a late occasion when the cue came on for hearing, that as won as she was in i comb-dun to prove that the signature to this instrument was In • the hand-writing of Mr. Pinfold, he would order her to receive the full amount of her claim. She has since applied to Pinfold's relations, but they deny that the signature in ques tion is in his hand-writing, and notice several peculiarities in the tigruation of the characters, to proof of their assertion. In order t., stcount for the variation obssivable in the writing of this signature anal Mr. Pinfold'* ordinary mode of writing, Musa Wassail 44y a, that. at the execution of the instrument, he was labouring under a mortis disorder, which occasioned a tremor of the hand, and ineepacitated him from writing with, his usual steadiness.. This 444. efler trying in vain to obtain the necessary evidence to sub elantiate her claim in the neighbourhood of the place where the deceased resided, came to Warrick, about fire `eeks ago, and called upon De. Wake, who, it appears, on one occasion, profes- Mona% attended Mr.-Pinfold, at beandegton, and was once in posewaihn of a piece of paper, which bore, among others,- the cigna. titre of that gentleman. In this interview Miss a-I:assail asked Lb. Wake to prove the signature ol Mr. Pinfold; which he declined, on the ground that he had never seen him write in his life. She then requested him to allow her to compare the signature of the document she then produced with that written on the bock of the paper which Dr. Wake had onee.in his possession. Dr. Wake said it he could find it lie would give L'her With pleasure, but it being a Peeler of not the slightest itnportsnee to him or any one else, the business to which it teferred boring been entirely disposed of severer 'contra, he could not undertake, after the lapse of so grOat a length or nine, to produce it. Since that period it has been industriously circulated among the lower orders that the Doctor has an instrument or, heroin his possession, by the withholding of which site is pre 'Voted receiving between 0 and 7,0001.; and NO active have been her scouts. that she has followed him day by day, and, indeed, I.dur by hour. from place to place, with hundreds of people in her tram. She has hired a car, at the rate of six or seven shillings a Mgr, to follow Dr. Wake wherever his professional duty might call ; and whenever she made her appearance in pursuit of him, caller at Leamington or a' Warwick, the has attracted a greut concourse of spectators. On Friday . evening she followed Dr. Wake ro the Circus; and on his leaving that place of amusement with Mrs. Wake anti family, she would have again annoyed hint in a similar way, but for the interference of some gentlemen pee s- nt, who presented her following him. Tile popular clamour against the Doctor had arrived at such a pitch to the evening, that i.e was necessitated to appeal to the-civil power fur protection ; and oii the following day Miss Wassail was apprehended at her lodg ings, on the Leamington Road, on a charge of " having, on the night of Friday, the 16th of June instant, caused many riotous and ditiorderly persons to assemble together within this borough, to the thatutbanee of the public peace, the endangering of the life and meet! of Charles 11 - eke, Doctor in Physic, and others, and to the annoyance of the inhabitants of the said borough."—On Monday morning Me was brought up to the Court-house, before J. Wilms horst, Esq. Mayor, George Doswell, Esq. and John Edwards% Esq., Site was attended to the Conti by her nephew and niece, all of whom were very genteelly dressed. The depositions of Dr. Wake's witnesses having been read, and the case fully gone through, the Alayot inquired if Miss %Valuta was prepared with suretics for her keeping the peace for three , mot the. She wished she was not, nor did she intend producing', any. Rhe protested against the proecedings of the Court altogether; tact were bosh cruel and atbitrary. She had committed no of t.tc.to against the laws, and therefore should not give security for hee good behaviour, which, in fact. would be entering into a corn. prouder' with her persecutors, and to a certain degree admittiog test she was guilty of the crime imputed to her. Orden were given to the officers to remove 11ias Weasel!, and the Colut Amite OP. She at first Ohjected to trove from her seat, aftue tome entreaty on the pert of her professional adviser, she consented to leave the Court House quietly. She was taken in a to to the Red Lion. from wheisce she was removed in the course of afternoon to the county _gaol. When she arrived in a 6.,, , ai5e at the gate she refused to get nut, nor would she quit tit, chaise until carried out by force. As soon, however, as the gate dosed open her she became peaceable, and telling Mr. Adkins me was his tarlsonee„ was conducted by him to her room, arid im puted to have regained her ch-erfulnese. • Mary Ann Woodall is the July who hunted Mr. Pinfold through the counts, some years ago. for the purpme of comr.elliug hint to trusty her, and has hem imprisoned twice before for assaulting a try t espwctable rang lady to whin he then paid his addnesue.

Mr. TrtEstcrei: appeared on behalf of Mr. Sh aw, the assignee of Howard and Gibbs, bankrupts, in support of a per Lion, which prayed that a certain proof of debt against the bankrupts should be expunge'd, under the following circumstances : The pnblic are aware that Howard anti Gibbs, previously to their bankruptcy, were extensive agents in the negotiations of loans and annuities. /laving received directions from the Duke of Marlborough, to raise for him a certain sum . of motley by way of annuity, ■ MG Hawkins offered to advance the amount required, on the terms proposed, and actually paid the money into the hands of Cloward and Gibbs, who became bankrupts, without having procured for him the stipulated annuity ; and, as it subsequently had appeared that the money in question.bad never gone into the hands of the Duke of Marlborough, but had simply been put to his credit by the bankrupts, in his account with them, his Grace refused to execute the necessary deed to the lender I he (Mr. Hawkins) was accordingly suffered to prove for the amount tinder the Commission of Bankrupt issued against Howard anti Gibbs. To have this proof!expunged, their Assignee now petitioned the Court, having, since this proof was admitted, ascertained that an action at law had been commenced against Howard and Gibbs, by Mr. Hawkins, for receery of the money, which action had been compromited : a fact which, the Learned Counsel contended, put an end to the claim. ..... Mr. llic-gym+TETit, with whom was Mr. RotYis, appeared for Mr. Shaw, in resistance of the petitioner's prayer, contending that as the money had never passed out of the hands of the bnokc. rupto, they were clearly liable for the amount, until every shilling of it should be repaid, or applied as originally stipulated.

(Before the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE and Common Jurtes.J SHIFTING A HABIT. MOORE V. CLARK. This wet an action brought by a tailor, to recover the sum of eight guineas, the prier of a riding habh k furnished to Mr. Clark's niece, by his order, while she act-d as his housekeeper. Mr. tiu NEY opened that he should he able to prove that Mr. Clink gave en order for the riding habit in question, for hi. niece, who was a favourite at the time she received the present, lie chose the colour, he Edmired the cut, and approved of the manner in which the older was executed ; hut after wards Miss Clark had the misfortune to offend the defendant by taking unto herself. husband, and then this item in the plaintiff's bill was attempted to be fixed on Miss Clark's husband. MN , Jane I% miller, the 6-devant Bliss Clue:, was then called to prove !tilt crer. Mr. PLATT objected to her, on the ground that she was a wit. re , s interested in faring her husband's responslaility for the habit in que•tion. Mr. GuarewY then released both Mr. and Mn. Walker, and she proceeded in her evidence, swearing positively that her uncle ordered the riding habit for her a.. a present, and it fitted her CO well that not only he, but all her friends, approved of the figtar she trade in it. On her croas-examinstion an attempt was made to cut out that part of her evidence which went to prove the order was given by the defendant, but in rain. Mr. PLATT, for the defence, then stated that a separate bill had been made out, debiting Miss Clark for the ridir:g habit, and, in point of fact, for three successive years, when the plaintiff's bills were presented to Mr. Clark, fur clothes furnished to himself, though thil item of eight guineas was always inserted, it was as often deducted by the plaintiff's ethlectitig clerk. The learned Counsel.then produced a separate bill to . I ts. Clark, debiting her wish the habit, and al so thre e bill s deiri:inr,,, the defendant with the drice of it; but he fail e d in es t a bli s hi ng t h at t h e p l a i nt iff' s c l er k educted that item by order of his master. Mr. tin RNEY, in . reply, remarked th a t th e se p ara t e bill d e • biting Miss Clark, 'iarl evidently been made out :o answer the plaintiff's purpoaes, after he had quarrelled with her on account of her marriage; for if it had ever been presented to her, it would now :lave come from her pOllBOllllOll and lint from the defendant's. The Jury brandy four.d fur the plaintiff—Damages Cl. - - 11. ,, C1C I' ROAST. Mr. Cowrw opened the pleadings, and stated that this win an action brought against the defendant.for pultr-hing of and coneetn ing the plaintiff and his wife, a certain scandalous and defamatory libel, entitled ' fill Alan's Lamentations." The defendant pleaded Nut Guilty, on which ik.itte was joined. Mr. Sum LETT —l:knifemen of the Jury, this is an action, which, fnr the honour of human nature, is not of frequent occur rence. Actions for libel err, in modern times, very frequent hitt it finely happens the* the libel complained of in permed by a mail who i. admitted to the friendly board of the victim of his malice, and 'adnikisters to his fwnil t y in the confidential capacity or a me dical adviser. Th e pl a i nt 'f in this case is a gentlemen of great respectability, huldi ig a situatiro of eminence in the Custom. house. The defer dant and his brenher are surgeon. and apothe cartes, living wi.hin a few doors of him In the Kenr-rosrl, and fir some time they have been admitted to the plaimtifra fam ly and THE BRITISH PRESS. his table, on terms of friendship and the greatest confidence. Who , would imagine that a gross and obscene libel, which has been circulated in the plaintiff's neighbourhood, and sent to his family, was written by the defendant, who is now brought before you ? %Viten I conic to mad the libel itself, it will require no comment—ft needs no language to aggravate the malignity ofita tendency. There are persons in this world, the tendency of whose dispositions is towards all that Is malicious, slanderous, and obscene ; but the manifestation of such a disposition on the part of persons who are admitted to our bosom confidence and hospitable hoards, is the hot, thing that any of us would expect. Neverthe less. there are persona who, having gained our confidence, and hav ing become acquainted with our domestic concerns, take delight In holding up nor characters and conduct to the ridicule and contempt of the world, who nre Ignorant of us.• For example, I don't know what we have to do with the private concerns of any man who chooses, at an advanced peiirld of life, to marry a lady some twenty or five and twenty years younger than himself. It may he a thing that you or I would nut do; but does it give any man who is ad mitted to our tables and our confidence a right to ptibtisti an ob scene and ttiagusting libel concerning ace, if we choose to to act ? don't ask you whether it can he justified, because my friend the, Common Sergeant, who is engaged for the defendant, will not alp tempt a justification; but does it admit of a palliative—does it allow of an excuse? i say no: it cannot. It has been said, by one of the wisest philosophers Engl ind ever could boast, that " a young man marries for a mistress, p middle.aged man for a com panion, and an old man for a nurse ;" and therefore a man may marry at any age lie will. I don't mean to deny that if my client, an aged gentleman about sixty, chooses to marry a lady about half his age, it may be allowed to his friends to joke upon the subject Such things are of daily occurrence, but they constitute no crime; and If the parties' live comfortably and happily together, no man has a right to indulge in vicious CON. templations concerning their connubial.intercourse—no man has a right to set forth in his village doggrels those things which are not only repugnant to c,namon decency, but are discreditable to the feelings of &gentleman and a man. And yet you will find, to-day, that the defendant, who has been the affected friend, the confiden tial medical advissr. and the bosom visitor of my client, has cast the obligations oh hospitality aside, and has wounded the peace of the man who reposed confidence and friendship in him. My client, the plaintiff, Gentlemen, has been married two or three times. He is a gentlemaw by birth, he is a man holding a respectable situation in lite, and above all, lie is of irreproachable character. I defy the defendant to ofiir any thing against him. Since his recent marriage with his present rife, the defendant and his brother, who live within a few doors of him, in a place called 't %Vebb's Country Terrace," in the Kent-road, have thought fit to to nil ro him and his wife indecent anonymous letters. What think you of such letters ' being written to a gentleman and his wife? Of course you could net suspect your friends of such conduct. Nobody mind. Sonic time after these anonymous let ters came, the verses I now hold in my hand were sent, which, when I read them to you, may possibly excite laughter, but I hope . your indignation will not be totally absorbed in the ridicule they convey. Some suspicions had fallen on the defendant and his brother, and although the matters that had occurred before were tse contemptible to novice publicly, yet when these verses were traced to persons of some authority in their sphere, the subject became toe, serious to pave unnoticed, and application was made to the present Attendant to know if he was the author. Of course he declared It. was impossible to suspect him, and of course lie utterly denied any . connexion with suer, disgraceful conduct. Some time afterwards, however, it was discovered that a young lady, a teacher in a school where the plaintifra wife had also been a teacher, received in the defendant's hand-writing, under a cover addressed by him to WI, a copy of the v:rses on which the present action is founded. That at least slick's be was the author, but afterwards they came out is print, were diffusely circulated, and without a printer's name. The plaintiff finding matters had-proceeded to'thit,exiremity, deemed it necessary to employ some person to discover the author. He found dot the printer by good foruse, and thyoug6 rite printer be traced the manuscript to the defendant in this cause. I shall prove to rod that after haring composed these lines, and. got them copied, he sent his own shop.bny with them to the printzr, and had no less than two hundred copies of them printed. I will now read the verses to you, Gentlemen, anti though theymay occasion a tempo rary laugh, I am sure you will not suffer your settee of justice to be overcome by the smile that may be excited. They begin with this heeding— " AN OLD MAN'S LAMENTATION." [The verses are of a nature which prevents our inserting them.] Now, Gentlemen. I have done with this disgusting ribaldry. There is no sohject, you know foil weR, that may not be touched by ridicule: Ido not mean to say that Ism much of the stoic, or that I affect much unnecerstry gravity. I do not contend that if a man of sixty chooses to marry a lady of thirty, his friends may not joke about it over their glass or round their tables; but there is a barrier over which they ea„ ht not to pass. People may say or think what they like privately, but they have no business publicly to scandalize their neighboara, particularly those with whom they have moved on terms of friendship. They have no business to , stigmatize a woman, who (for aught that appears to the contrary) is virtuous and modest, as a lascivious wanton picked up from ' the streets. They have no right to print and placard a man in . characters of obloquy and terms of ridicule. That is what this de fendant has dune on the present occasion ; and however the non set.sc 1 hive read to you may excite u smile, I trust by your ver. diet you will deal out an adequate punishment for the man who is capable of such treachery. Mr. Charles Corrie examined by Mr. COMYK.—I know the plaintiff: He lives in NVebb's County Terrace, Kent road. The defendant, Mr. John Boast and his brother carry on business in the same place, within a few doors of the plaintifF. I was an ap prentice to them in the year 11125. I recollect the marriage of the plaintiff with his present wife. I received instructions frotn Mr. John Boma, the defendant, to copy some verses, which I paw him ' writing himself. I received orders from him to have those verses which I saw him writing, printed. Mr. David Boast give me the order, but whether Mr. John Boast was present at the time, I am not exactly clear. lam sure the verses that I received orders, to get printed were Alr. John Boast's writing. I found out a Printer, to whom I took them ; the printer's name is Burke, end he lives in the Seven Dials. A hundred copies were printed at first. I paid for the printing with money which Mr. David Boast gave me for that purpose. I saw Mr. John Boast write the first copy of the AIS., and a second was written by myself, by the order of Mr. J. Boast.. The copies that were given to the printer I never saw afterwards. Two nets were printed, one from the original ma nuscript, and the other, about a fortnight afterwards, Irons the copy I made. A hundred copies ware printed each time. The printing was ordered by me, by disorder of Mr. John Boast. Mr. John Boast did not attend to the family of the plaintiff as his me dical man. Mr. David Boast did. (A bill put into the hand of the witness.) I look at this bill. It is in the hand-writing of Mr. John Boast, and I always understood both brothers were partners. I saw copies of the versi a in question distributed about the neigh baurhood, and I saw one stuck up over the gateway leading to the yffaee where the plaintiff' lives. Some were left in our shop, and given away there. I cannot say who gave them away, but I gave away some. 1 rewired no orders to give them away, but I laboured under an idea that it was according to the Messrs. Boast's wishes. The shop was an open shop, and persons who came there ter medi. circa got them. Um:is-examined by Mr. COMMON SERGEANT—I never knew Mr. John Boast attend the family of the plaintiff. I remember ite once extracted a tooth for 31r. Lock, at his own house. Mr. Boast came to thlt neighbourhood a tong time before I went there. I have said that I remember the marriage of Mr. Lock, the plaintiff, with his present wife. He in an old man, but not a very old man. He is upwards of sixty. She is not very young, but she is young. Mr. Lock has some daughters. I should think his eldest &ugh ler is about the age of her new step-mother. I was paying my ad. dresses to Miss Mary Lock at the time these verses were published. The COMMON SERGEANT—I believe the young ladies were a good deal annoyed at Mr. Lock getting married to his fourth wife. Were they not ? Mr. SCARLETT objected to this question as irrelevant. The Loin CIIIET JUSTICE—WeII, if it UM so, that is the greater aggravation. The COMMON SERGEANT—You were paying very particular attentions to one of the Misses Lock at this time. The LORD CIDEC JUSTICIG—YOU are not bound to answer (list question. Witness—Certainly I was acquainted with the family. Cross-cwaminarion resumed-1 was not on good terms with Mr. Boast and his brother. They complained that I paid too much nt. tcntion to the young lady, and that I neglected business t but the business was not neglected. There were complaints of that kind, and they told me I must go. I did go in consequence. In my es aininstion in chief, I said I found out the printer who printed these verses, and his name is Burke. Re-examined by Mr.SCARLETTI have no doubt at all that the person alluded to in the verses is Mr. bock, the plaintiff: John Burke, called sod examined by Mr. SCAIILETT—I am a printer, near the Seven Dials. I remember the young man, who was the last witness', coming to my office with smite manuscript verses to be printed. I knew hint before, and knew where he used to lire ; but I did not know that he then lived with the defendant, as that was 'tept a secret from me. He had 100 copies of the yip s printed on the 16th of April, 1823, and another hundred printed on the 25:h of the same month. Cross.examined by Mr. CHITTY—I look at the printed copy of verses first printed : an alteration was made in that for the second hundred. The last witness ordered an alteration with respect to the heading, and tdao brought an additional verse. I have not the original copy. It is customary in my office to file every job . • and the first job was filed a usual, but it was taken off the file to be corrected, and it was destroyed. Reexamined by Mr. SCAIiEgTT—The heading of the original reeves was, "The Oki Man who hu had four Wives:" and the alteration was, "An Old Man's Lamentations." Re-cross-examined by Mr. Cu T T Y.—l am not sure which was the additional verse, but I bclkve it was the last one. I believe there were also alterations of the wording in two or three instances, but I cannot correctly state what those alterations were. Mr. conic was again called by Mr. Scan t..ETT-The poetry of the additintod verse that the printer speaks of wu the composb ion of defendant, Mr. John Boast. Ido not recollect whether there were any other 'aerations made; possibly there might be, but I do not remember them. The libel was now proposed to be read. The Costmort Sgaorawr objected. He contended that all the count. having averred that the libel published was headed " An Old Man's Lamentation," the proof was directly other b:cause the libel w as or i g inally, " The Old Man who had manic I Four iVites." Mr. SCAILEWT contended there was sufficient evidr c: to go the Jury. The Loan Cuter J sr ICE overruled this objection, and an other, as to matter of tom. The libel was then read.

S E Gentlemen ltGEANT L10716%41E1 Jury, on on the t J h u e ry pe o et n tl of re p t a h rt e defendant, tile. John Boast, it is nftw my duty to address s few observations to you, and I trust you will not suffer your minds to labour under the idea that this case has been at all made out ac cording to the speech of my Learned Friend. To the evidence ,alone year roust look : and I aubint to you most confidently that the evidence does not make out the charge which this declaration con tains. In the first place it avert, with some degree of vanity for an o'd man, " that the plaintirliad been lawfully married to divers—to wit, three wtves, and that he had divers, to wit, ten children." Of the wives we have heard nothing but the fourth; and of the children we have seen nothing but the one who was last called, though we have heard something about two sisters, to one of whom the principal witness, Mr. Currie, was paying addresses. The imperfect proofs you h ave nail upon these subjects, ought. I think, to affect your views of the attempted proof with respect to the other parts of the case. Now, if this publication be a libel at all, I think a gentleman who boasts of his having gained the charms of no less than four ladies, would have much better consulted the peace arid domestic happiness of this lady with a French name, this Miss Euplussine St. Genies, if he had suf. reset: the nonsensical publication now before you to die in peace I do not pretend to defend it fur a single instant ; but I subm i. to you most confidently, that the proofs of the case furnish con viction for arty re Atonable mind that my client was never the author of it. You have heard a great deal from ray Learned Friend about the ribose of private and medical confidence; but io judging whether men are guilty of baseness and treachery, you will necessarily look to see whether you can find any snit of motive that could incite my client to the publication of such a libel as this; ana I assert confidently that in no part of the case can you find the shadow of a proof that fixes guilt on my client, or any motive thus to attack the plaintiff: But, Gentlemen,the author is tolerably well manifested through the piece. Mr. Currie. you will recollect, is the person whogets the libel printed ; he is the person who now charges my client with theguilty outrage ; and being, accord ing to his own acknowledgment, an accomplice (supposing that RI client were really concerned). I say his evidence is wholly desti tute of confirmation, and therefore is unworthy of credit. lie would affect to come forward here as an unwillinr witness against his former employers, in order that my Learned Friend on the other side might suppose he was not anxious to give Mr. Lock any fur. titer good turn than the law would compel him.to ; but you cannot forget that this young gentleman was paying his addresses to Miss Mary Lock, one of those young ladies to whom naturally the fourth alliance of their father with a step-mother, about her own age, might be justly obnoxious. Having penned this libel, as I say. to please the !atilt s—and having quarrelled with his masters, who dis missed him on account of the assiduous attentions he was paying to one of them, while he neglected their businolt • he next endeavours to squeeze himself into the good graces of the old gentleman, by fixing this libel on my client ; and thin, no doubt, fa the secret his. tory of the whole case. (If the libel itself, Gentlemen, I shall say rothing. It is so ludicrous and so ridiculous, that even my Learned Friend himself was obi gad to laugh while he was reading It to you ; and, therefore, supposing (which I can scarcely believe possible) drat you should find a verdict against my client. I cannot conceive how you can appreciate any daiturge the plaintif has sustained. I cannot imagine how any person could sustain damage from any. thing so ridiculous or so laughable. Peter Pinder truly says— " To laugh is a laudable thing, When people are silly or mean ;" and really, i trust, you will think with me, that the folly of this nonsemical publication it only exceeded by the stupidity of thus bringing it before the public. Toe Loan CHIEF tIUdTICE, in charging the Jury, observed that if the evidence of the witness Corrie was not to be relied on. it would have been ewe rely easy for the defendant to have produced his brother, for the purpose of contradicting that witness. It was very easy to charge a witness with falsehood; but such an accusa tion was extremely dangerous, where the evidence objected against was susceptible of comradiction, if fal-e, and yet not coateic ed. Great stress had been laid by the Learned Counsel for the defen. dant on the fact that no motive was made apparent atrial could in. cite the defendant to the publication of this libel; but his lordship said it was impossible for him or tor the Jury to dive into the secret inotives of men. No motive appeared, it was moat true ; but the 1 question for the Jury was, wheher the libel in question was pub. hotbed by the defendant ? (for that it was a libel there weld be no doubt.) if they thought that Mr. Corrie had written and pub lished the libel, and then wrongfully charged his former master with it ; - or, in fact, if they thought the publication was not brou g ht home to the defendant, the verdict ought to be in his favour. On the contrary, if the Jury were satialied that the publication was fixed open the defendant, then the verdict must be for the plaintiff: The only remaining question was that of damages, ableh was a question solely fbr the Jury; and his Lordship was sure that their good sense would suggest such fair and temperate damages as the case justly called for. The Jury deliberated for a few minutes, and then found for the plaintiff—Damages 601. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Juxs 23. Charles Cooper, proprietor of the Coopers' Arms public-house. situated in IVest-street, Smithfield, was opposed by Messrs. HEATH and .COOKE, on the rart ci certaiq creditors of the insol vent, on the ground that he had made omissions in the balance sheet which he filed in Court, tending to defraud his creditors, and that during his intprisontneut be misappropriated a considerable so it of money which was then under his control. It appeared in evidence that the insolvent was an uncertificated bankrupt ; that about twelve months since he applied to the Ward mote of Farringslon Without for a license, which was refused ; he subsequently sold the Coopers' Arms to a person of the name of Ross for 1,920/. ; that being indebted to Messrs. Truman and Hanhury to the amount of 1,6091., he deposited the proceeds of the sale in their hands, and that consequently there was a baLince the to him of 3fiol. Ross, the new landlord, was afterwards refused a license, in consequence of the previous bad character of the public house In question. Against this refusal Ross appealed to the Lon don Sessions, when, in consequence of the good character he re ceived, and the improvement which had taken place in :he manage went of the house, the appellant obtained a license. The halm c which was due from Messrs. Truman and flanbary having re retained in their hands as a security to the new landlord, when the license was obtained by Ross, that money came troche the insol vent's control, who then offered his creditors a composition of 3s. in the pound, in payment of their claims. In consequence of this offer, Gilmore, a creditor of the insolvent, received 100 f. in pay. ment of his claim. Before the license was granted to Ross, the in solvent petitioned the Court, a nd fil e d a - blank estate paper and bilance.sheet, in which he omitted any mention of the property in the hands of Messrs. Truman and Hanbury. Mr. CooKE took two exceptions to the insolvent's discharge; • first, that he had tiled a blank estate paper, in which he made no allusion to the property in the hands of Messrs. Truman end Han bury, which, he contended, ought to have been paid over to the arovisional Assignee; and, secondly, that the insolvent was allowed to file his petition on the faith of an affidavit, which made this same omissions as had been dope in his balance-sheet and estate paper.' Upon these grounds he contended that the affidavit was in contra. diction to the facts of the case as they appeared in evidence, and consequently that the insolvent's petition ought to be dismissed. Mr. POLLOCK, who appeared for. the insolvent, said that the schedule could not be impeached on the ground that the insolvent contemplated to commit a aud ; themoney which had been placed in the hands of Messrs. Truman and Hanbury was paid away by them in their own wrong, and could be recovered by an action at law, and consequently the creditors of the insolvent could not be injured in their demands on the insolvent's estate by that nab- saction. The CHIEF COMM/9410)(ER said, the dismissal of the into% vent's petition could not be attended with any advantage to the insolvent's creditors. The only effect of such a course would he to involve the mat) , in greater expense, and to prolong the term of his isn-risonmint ft was clear the insolvent's petition was grossly imperfect ; he however thought that, with all its imperfections, it was better the case struld stand on its own merits, thai be dis.. missed to be afterwards corrected. The insolvent then underwent a long examination an to the dis position of his property, to chew that lie had acted fraudulently, end had exercised an undue prefrence in the payment of his debt., when Messrs. Cooke anti Heath prayed the Court that the insolvent might be remanded. Slr. Pot.t.ocx having been heard in reply, The C/II re COMMISSIONER then commented en the evidence which had been heard. He nuld, he could not think 'the insolvent had erred through inadvertency ; the innelvent's schedule was marked with grins negligence, to say the leant of It; his conceal. went of the property in the hands of Messrs. 'Etonian and Hun bury could not have proceeded from ignorance. Ile must have known he • had a control over that mosey when he disrosed of it by orders on that firm ; he had also, after he was in prison, re ceived various sums, for which he had not accounted ; there were, also. several hills of the insolvent's out, for which he was liable to be arrested ; of these bills he had taken no notice in Oil schedule. lie could not make up his mind as to wbat ho might finally dettrmite in the case ; but the case should now be ad. journal fn- the benefit of die creditors, who should be served with regular notice. The order of. the Coen? was, that the insolvent should be re manded, and when he had amended the necessary documents, he would deliver the judgment of the Court. The insolvent was then remanded to liorsemonger.laue gaol.
