SCRItIATT-1 submit, my Lord. this is no case to go to a J, Ty. There is Dots shadow of evide-ce to shew that the Ma arz.tes acted on Mr. Hicks's depositions.

It is a 9unition of law. The Loam CHIEF JUNTICX—That is a disputed point.

This was an salon brought by the plaintiff, who was a convey. irlia in Hoylc.strect, Burlington-gnrdens, to recover from the de. te(Jazt compensation for a loss sustained by him in consequence of thc defendant's negligence in investing two sums of 7001. each, feted to him by the plaintiff to be laid out in the purchase of two LMUitielli ad which two snots the defendant rase to Dr. Lock, ,Hector of Hilgity, in Notfolk. and to a Mr. Harmer, upon Oeir granting separately to the plaintiff two annuities of 061. and ltI)L, they being each, at the time of grunting the annuities., in a wets of insolvency.

From 1801 to 1818, there were bailable writs amounting to :1,141.11. taken out against Dr. Lock. Some of those writs were iffg,f and 'Rorke; they were taken out in Hants, Surrey, Nor folk, and Suffolk.

A verdict as to Mr. Harmer was then found by consent for the dafeadant .The dITTOIINKY-GXNERAI. for the defendant contended at gams length that the plaintift, in laying out his money at so high a rote of interest as 14 per cent, must have expected that the severity wan not the room unexceptionable; but let the security be Is might, the defendant was entirely free from blame, tissue the plaiting had employed an attorney to transact the business for him, and did not leave it entirely in the hands of the defendant.

The beamed Counsel, by ix. pressing his conviction that when he should have pron. ti these, coull.d with the fair presumption that a man who invests his numey at the enormous interest of 14 per cent. cannot expect the Nod unexceptionable security, the Jury sottld And a verdict foe the defendant. 11r. Ltene Davis, examined by Mr. Iluot:GlIA4-1 know the plaintiff in this cause, and de: defendant al,n. Introduced Mr. fbwethan to Mr. Whitehead in 18111 The purpose of this intro. dnetion was, that Mr. Whitehead might be entrusted with a sum of money which Mr. Heathen bad to dispose of. I advised him, hammer, to consult an attorney. He said that he had a tinsel in * law whom he would consult; I understood that friend to be Mr. Lamb. The plaintiff told me he had advised with Mr. lamb, who approved of the security. Cross-examined by .Mr. Sysnr.grv-1 have known Mr. White. head Inc many years, sad is all toy transactions with him found lam pafertly cumin. I desired the plaintiff to employ hi* own attorney, not Imm any doubt I entertained of Whitehead s correct. ow, but became I thought the plaintiff would be better satisfied by titling an. „Rev. C. Lock examined—Wiesen is son of Doctor Lock, who ems Rector of Kilmer, in Nofelk, in 1818. His father was dispos. eterd of theliving in 1822. The living extended ever 8,01111 acres. It was areb!e and grass land. There was a reetery-house and 70 amesof glebe. I do net know what the living realized at that time, bet know that my falter did not receive the full amount of the *bee. • . • Croat.examined—Hie father was indebted /8,8001. ft Doctor .4mvel, for which debt he mortgaged his firing. Ile-examined—His father had also the curacy of Farnham, worth 401. a-year, and enuthet, that of Sole, worth 60. a.yeori be bad also purehaiel property at Kingstown Hill, end an estate at Witmore was also in his possession ; he had some other freehold property in Farnham. Witness does not know the value of the freehold, or the number of acres of which it consisted. Ilia father had also West India property, and had shares in lead mines in Derbyshire and Cornwall; he had also ulnas in Swansea. Cron-examined by Mr. GURNEY—M'itness did not see his father receive any rent for certain freehold estates ; the money went to pay off the interest of mortgages due upon the estates. Wit ness does not know that the interest of the living of Kilgay went to pay the interest of the 16,0001. due to Doctor SorreL In 1818, he did not know that his father was distre d; his father then lived at lambent. Ile was not aware of his father being arrested I fre quently being part of his time in Oxford and part in Somerset shire. le knew there were executions against his father, but did not know the amount for which they were issued ; he was also aware that his father was arrested once. Doctor Hewlett examined.-IWiiness was inducted into the living of Kilgay in May, 1819. Ile would be glad to rent his tithe* at 90111. a-year ; he had 84 acres of glebe land. The esti mated value of the living, when he was inducted into it, was I: 3 7 11 . per annum. Being asked if he let the tithes under their value? he replied, " I let them for as much as I can get." (A laugh.) Mr. Lock recalled—Witness does not recollect that he presented an assignment of the property at Kilgay to the officer who came with an execution. Mr. Swallow examined by Mr. Ilnouc ham—Witness in clerk to defendant's attorney. Ile produced a copy of Doctor Lock's induction to the living of Kilgay, which was read by the Officer of the Court. Mr. ScsaLETT replied. He remarked upon the keeping back of Mr. Lamb, the person who was said to he ergaged so much in these transactions. The Jury might then know whether he was an attorney at all, or what was leis employment. From the statement of his Learned Friend the Attorney-Or:feral, he expected that the abstract and title-deeds bad been radmiLtell to how, and that he ap. proved of them. The Learned Counsel contended, that Mr. White i head was the sole agent employed iu the transaction, and would not waste the dine of the Jury in recapitulating the evidence by which it was proved that he was so. The negligent manner in which he . discharged that duty was fully apparent to the Jury also. The • evidence of Mr. Lock fully established that in the years 1816 and I 1617 his father did not receive .1001. a-year. The LORD CHIEF Jura' rex told the Jury that there were two !Important points fur their consideration: first, whether the plaintiff ' relied on the defendant as to the valiiitf the security ; and, se condly, whether, if he relied on him, W hitehead had not negli gently discharged the duty entrusted to hint. It was important for them to consider the situation of Mr. Lock. L was the (Wt.: of 31r. Whitehead to have inquired into ar.d known the state of ' his affairs ; be (the Lord Chief Justice) could not say whether he had so inquired or nut, but he would rather suppose that lie had not, as it was more charitable to presume that he had been negli. gent than that he had becu guilty of misconduct. If he had in stituted the proper inquiries, he would have found at the office of the Sheriff of Middlesex, and other officers, that, in the years 1816 and 1818, there were no leas than 47 warrants issued against him. If he had extended his inquiries still further back he would have found a sallgreater number in 1812. And Mr. Atkins, who had known him for 30 years, had said no person at Farnham would have gireu hint credit. Ile sould have learned also, that the living of Kilgay had passed out of his hands, and that there were many ether euvainstanees to recite suspicion and to create doubts and difficulties which should, Lt least, hie put him on his guard. A man of business would have apprised himulf of the situation of I the person to whom he entrusted th.• money of his client. if it ap peared therefore to the Jury that Mr. Whitehead had negligently and improvidently disposed of the money without satisfactory se curity, they would find a seedier for the plaintiff for such damages as, in their judgment, the evidence entitled him to. The Jury consulted to„ ether for • few minutes, and returned a veroict for the pUinuft,Damages, 1421- le& POLICE. BoVnsriTEIT. THE Elt-LADY riatitywonz.--Yesterday this extraordinary personage, who 11.14 so repeatedly been befogs the respective Na. gistrates of the different Police Offices. was, although only dis charged the night before, again brought up from Covent-gtudeo watch-house, c ha rged by John Lloyd, a watchman, with being disorderly in James -street, Covent-garden, at four o'clock in the looming, and also with acting in the most indecent manner. So resolute was she in not going to the watch-house, that they were actually otiligiti to procure a wheelbarrow, in which she was con. veyed to the lock-up room. The defendant appeared before the 3lagistratestrongly impregnated with the !ulna of her debauch, anti Mr. lit pi sit u Lt. remanded her. LI:11110U1 CASE.--infieuni Twetyr and Edmund Williams ware brought from St. Clement's watch-h charged with as saulting 'William Sheen, a watchman, of St. C t's parish. Sherd stated, that he was on duty in Drury-lane, about half , past two o'clock on Monday morning, when the defendant Tucker went into a court notorious for houses of ill-fame, in company with a female, and with whom he in a short tune returned quarrelling, and creating a riot fur nearly half an hour . Sheen at length sprung his rattle, and several colleagues of his came to his assistance. The defendant was very abusive, and said he was the son of a Colonel Digby, and would take care to have him reported ; wit ness then with some difficulty drove hint towards St. Giles's, and near the top of Derry-Lane he left him to go about his business. The defendant west to St. Oiler's watch-house, thinking he be lawd to that parka, to lay a complaint wales bias ; but the night constable reserved him to St. Clement's watch-house, where the constable gave bins witness's name and address. Last night the defendant Tucker, in company with Williams, , came to his beat, collared him, and said he would take him before Mr. Perry, of this office; witness thzn immediately took them both in charge, and conveyed them to the watch-house. Tucker, in defence, said that the watchman had struck him with his stick, and torn his,elothes, on Monday morning; he denied quarrelling with the woman ; and said he was assistant to Mr. Davies, a respectable chemist. Williams's defence was, that he went with Tucker to see the illwninations at the theatres; when at Covent-garden theatre, Tacker said to him that as they were so near, he would go and speak to the watchman who had assaulted hint on Monday morn ing, when he went in company of his friend, but did not take any part in the affair. Mr. Miusuuht said he believed they were both very respect able young men, but he could not approve of their conduct last night; but would, under all the circumstance of the case, dismiss them. LITTLEGOES.—Vesterday Maria Hepkies, a little girl, about 13 years old, was brought up for a second examination, charged with aiding and abetting in keeping a Little Go, or illegal Lottery insuranc , .. office. The evidence given before Sir R. Dimie, on Thursday was, that of a woman named Julia Carter, who stated that she went on a certain day to a house in Moor-street, Seven-dials, kept by the de fendant's father and mother, and expressed a wish to insure the number 21,000. in the Little-go, to be drawn that day. There was a drawing at the house regularly three days a-week, Monday, iVednesday, and Friday. The price paid fur an insurance for 3s. 3d. was 3il.—that is, a person paying the latter sum, receives the tinnier, if the number he or she lives upon is drawn on that day. Witness saw the defendant's mother, and told her she wished to insure 21,000, and the mother told her she could do so, and as sured her that if bee number came up, she should be certain of having her money ; at the same time calling her daughter from an inner room to receive the motley and enter the number, which she did. The poor girl being incapable of tnakir.g her defence, Sir Riebted, with great humanity, ordered her to be taken to Covent. garuen watch.houte for the night. l'i,;trilay sunning Mr. Adolphus attended on the part of the prows Lion ; and Mr. Sherman, a very revpectible solicitor, on be halt' of the girl. The sitting Alaglttrates, Sir It Birnie and Mr. Minshull, bay ing heard the arguments produced by both parties, Sir IL ilinxtie obvervetl, that he believed they were sitting all this Unix on a barrel of gunpowder, as the witness Carter was not in attendance, and the Act requiring the presence of two Magis trates, and the deposition being given only in the presence of one Mngistrate on Thardsy. Stephens.. the patrol, stated that he could not find the witness Carter ; and after some further observations from the professional gentlemen, the information was quashed. Sir H.

A DOG CAUSE.—Yesterday a tradesman, residing in Gray's appeared before the Magistrate with a most rueful coun tenance. tntylaring his advice and assistance is a case of the deepest importance. The 3lagivrate, on avaunting a gravity which the solemnity of the oension .iitat to dtsoand, told him he was prepared to hear his ca.e. He then proceeded to state, that he was the owner of a favourite bitch. which had lately become the happy parent of a numerous thlapring ; that some days ago he received is letter hum the proti peietor of an oil and clime shop in the same street, complaining, that his bitch was in the habit of going to his shop, eating un his graves, and in order to most digestion, drinking large litiMitie4 of Me oil. Such conduct on toe part of the bitch he did not mean to defend, and severely remonstrated with her ; but, when we ratios'sl beings cannot resist temptation, how could she withstand it it On Thursday, in a moment of fr.tilty, she went again to this shop, where she was locked up for several hours, end then scut how, tarred and feathered. Iler condition can be better iM•011011 than discribed ; so inetamorposed was she, that he did not know her ; nay, her pups did not recognise her, and, of course, did hot pay her that filial respect they were wont to do. Immediately on her arrival homes letter came, intimating distil she wee canght in the shop again she would be killed. After this accumulation of injuries, lit wished the :Magistrate's advice how to act; it au clear that the Hun. Member for lialway was u grossly insulted as himself by the tarring and feathering. The oilman's threat of killing her, should she ever enter the shop again, evidently required that lie should be obliged to enter into reugnizances to keep the peace towards her. ----- 'tirel 'tire 3 ae presiding gisarate (Sergeant Srt.t.oxl exPrelnk`la hia deepliympathy for the sufferings of the complainant. and regretted that he could do nothing more than pour the •• nil of oompaa.io,l" on the wounds he suffered.

QEN Yesterday HYllg UE ant Peaces,* and -M Jam r:AlL ie:a,hb wifh, were charged with committing a burglary in the house of Mr. James Gray, nurseryman, Kensington pore, on the night of Wednesday last, and stealing therein several dozen bottles of port wine, fire dozen bottles of runt, and a Cheshire cheese, of the weight of 4 pounds ` On Thursday morning, the prosecutor discovered that during the preceding night his premises had been broken into, and robbed of the above-mentioned p t e , and in the early part of the day the cheese was found concealed bind several trees in his nursery. ground. He gave directions to his men to watch, and apprehend any person that came to take away the cheese. The male prisoner, about one o'clock yesterday morning, was observed to get over the fence of the nursery-ground, and to go to the spot where the cheese was found ; he was secured, and his wife, who was on the outside of the fence, was also taken. The prisoners declared that they knew nothing of the robbery, and the male prisoner said that he d quarrelled with his wife, who was determined he should not lie with her for a fortnight in the same bed: but he endeavoured to prevail upon her to accompany him into the garden. The Magistrate yid, the evidence was not sufficiently strong to warrant a committal, and discharged the prisoners, with a caution as to their future conduct, which excited considerable merriment. WORS H IP-ST It BET. hero????? TO SURVEYORS or ROM:lL—There appears to have been a custom prevailing for some time in the parish of Bethnal-green, with persons keeping a horse and cart, to go into the lanes and iye-ways, and dig up the banks and paths , and carry away the moul d, ex. therefrom, and appropriate it to their own use. A servant of the prevent surveyor of that district having seen a person with a home and cart in one of the bye-ways, shovelling up the dirt, and preparing to take it away, went up to him, and told him that his master could obtain a shilling a load for the dirt, and that unless he paid that sum for it he should summons him; this the man refused to do, and persisted in taking away the dirt, which wits therefore the ground of the present charge. fen being asked what he had to answer, the man said that he had lived in the parish many years, and always understood that any one had a right to the rubutali (for it 11/113 nothing better) that was heaped together on each side of the mad. '1 surveyor stated that the evil of which he complained was become a very serious one. Certain persons were in the habit of going at night or early in the morning and digging up the cause ways, and scraping the earth into heaps, and then in the course of the day they went with their carts and carried away the rubbish, as they called it, which had been thus scraped together, though he had no doubt they were the very individuals who had so conve niently prepared it for taking away. The paths in the lane where this person was seen had been in this mannerdestrnyed and levelled with there'd, by which practices he and the parish sustained coa siderable in.jury. A Mr. King then said that he had lived in the parish many pease, and had been in the habit of taking away the dirt from the sides of the roads without any hindrance, and that he never under stood the surveyor hail any right to make a profit of it, but always cousidered thu't persons paying rates and taxes in the parish were as lunch entitled to it as he was. He also said dist the present sur veyor had within a week past offered to let to him all the lanes in the parish, but he should like to know what authority the sur veyor had for making this offer. The surveyor admitted he had proposed to let the lanes to Mr. King, and referred to • clause in the 13th *leo. 111. c. 711, which empowered him to do so. The Magistrate said, that it was very clear no man had a right to dig up or takeaway any sort of earth from the sides of the road, but that the Surveyor was bound to dispose of it to the best advan tage. and account for it to the parish. He then read the 52d see. of 13th Hen. ill. c. 78. which enacted that any person who should be guilty of digging down any banks or causeways on the sides of the highways, &e. should, on conviction before one justice, by the oath of one witness, forfeit not More than 51. nor less than ilk, or be committed to the House of Correction. He however observed, that as he understood that the object of the present charge was to convince persons that the mutton which was pretended to exist did not give a right to any one to dig or carry away the earth from the roads, but that the same exclusively belonged to the surveyor, as the servant of the district or parish, and foe which he was account able, he should not in this case enforce the _penalty. AN AwgwAan PaRDICAWENT.—Mr. Jolts Trait, of Ward's-place, Islington, the real John Falstaff, a very tun of man, but tall withal,—in troth, a most noble, portly brickmaker, of ex cellent girth, and about six feet four inches high, was brought up, charged by one of his own men with having violently assaulted him, and made free with his wife ; indeed, so free as to make the poor man feel certain symptoms in his bead, which foretold that some very inconvenient protuberances were about to grow there. Tebbut, with a most self-complacent smile and oratorical flourish of hand, assured his Worship that he had no designs upon Master Ford's wife; but that, seeing him one day wielding a very can. courtly twig, in the shape of an iron crow-bar, over and about his dear spouse, and conjecturing that such gentle exercise could have but one kind of ending, which would be rather tragical, be felt dis posed to be the champion of woman, and quietly inte rfered to pre vent mischief. =The husband declared it was fake; that the man harboured his wife, took her out in his duty to Finchley, and slid he would keep her in defiance of her true and lawful lord. The Magistrate—Does this woman live with you ? Tebbut—Your Worship, I will not deny the truth ; this man is always ill-treating her. The Magistrate--Does she live with you ? Tebbut (with a Saari flourish)-81sr elegps with my daughter. Magistrate—Does she lise in your house? Tebbut (with a leer both right and left)—Yes, your Worship— my daughter—. Magistrate--Did Tou e'er take her to Findlley ? Tebbut—Your orship, my daughter and sister's daughter— Magistrate—Don't tell me, man. Did you ever take her to Finebley ? Tebbut-1 won't deny the truth. your Worship ; I once did. Kendall—Yes, your Worship, and be offered to buy her of me. Tebbut-1 offer to buy your wile! I want no wives ; I would rather buy a leg of mutton. You offered to sell her to me for two sovereigns. The 11147 i strate again asked the poor husband whether his master had struck him. He replied " Yes, your Worship, you can see it by my face ; and my poor ribs (at lest some of them), are so bail, that I can hardly do my work, yet I *as obliged to, to save him the trouble of bringing me here, which It threatened to do." Talbot was then held to bail for the assault. . . Kendall said it was much against his feelings to condone to work Ise a man who had not only assaulted him, but who had his wife in heeping ; and asked the Magistrate to advise him how to act. owever, appearing that the poor fellow had agreed to work fur a certain period, which was not yet expired, he was told that he 111119 t complete his contract ; at which he shrugged up his shoulers, and muttered, " It is a hard case to work for a man who had stolen my wife." UNION-HALL. ASSAU LT Ow A Czzav;ritw.LliinTierday Capt. L. C. O'Cal laghan, Aide-de-Camp to General Quiroga„ appeared at the office before Al. Swabey, D. King, and S. Davis, Mgrs., to answer the complaint of the Rev. J. fluorin, son to the Bishop of Droinore, who charged the Captain with having violently assaulted him on the King's highway. The Rec. James Saurin sworn, stated, that on Thursday after noon last, between four and five o'clock, as he was returning front a visit to the discovery ships at Deptford, on horseback, accompa nied by a friend (now present), he observed a carriage on the road, coming towards town, near the New Cron turnpike. Ile and his friend passed the carriage, and proceeded on towards the turnpike, at the gate of which they stopped for the purpose of pitying the toll; by this time the carriage came up, and while he (the witness) was reuriving change from the toll.collechw, the defendant, who was sitting in the dickey of the carriage, called out, and stigma tized him (the witness) with the words—" You area blackguard I you are a scoundrel! You are no gentleman !" and lie ulti mately got down from the coach, seized hold of the horse's reins, drwged a stick which he (oomplufit.int) carried, from his hands, and beet him violently with it across the shoulder'. Captain O'Callaghan—l admit that what the Rev. Gentleman has stated relative to the assault which I committed upon hint is true, but the provocation r received was omitted altogether in his statement. Upon the day mentioned I accompanied a party of ladies on board the Heels discovery ship. Upon our return, I was sitting in the dickey of the carriage, when I observed the com plainant and another gentleman ride up to die aide of the carriage, in which there were four ladies, and stare into the windows in a very impertinent manner. Ts. Magianism sod, he.litesrld be satislied to bind the defend. ant, himself in the sum of (1111 s, and one surety of 401., to appear at the Drat Quarter-Sessions. Mr. Thelwall attended with the Captain, and was hail for him. CORONERS INQUESTS. Yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, before Mr. limos, Deputy Coroner ror Westminster, an inquest was held at the Red Lion, llongliton-street, Clare-market, on the body of Robert Pepperell, an infant about 18 months old, whose death was occasioned by tale. ing opium pills. It appeared from the evidence, that the parents of the deceased mile at No. 8, New-Inn-passage. Mrs. Pepperell had been ill ror a long tills wi:h a had breast; site went last Wednesday to the DiVeimerf• in Dish°P's-couti, Lincoln's-lon. where she received a lotion and seven opium pill*. On retuning tonne she placed them on the table, unconscious of lts effects. (In the following morning she observed the deceased playing about the room, but being drowsy, she soon afterwards fell asleep ; on waking, about eiy:he o'clock, she round him lying insensible at the foot of the bed ; his sister, five years of age, told her motile: that her brother had ate four of the pit_ ,ls and that she had taken one herself. A surgeon was scot for, who declared the child to be in convulsive bits, and sent emetics, and immediatelg ordered a warmAiath ; but such was the effect of the poison, that Me poor child died in the bath. .Mr. belonging to the Dispenargy, proved giving the lo tion and pills to the mother; and his decided opinion was that four of the pills was suMcient to cause death to an infant of that ten der lip.. . . . - - It being Frosted that the pills occasioned the death of the child, the Jury instantly returned a verdict, That the deceased died from taking opium pills." An Inquisition was yeaserday evening taken before Joseph Canter, Esq., the Coroner Air the county. at the l'astle Inn, at Markley. near Sydenliam, on the body m &ohm Fletcher, who was found drowned in the Elsoydan ('anal. The deceased was an elderly man, and had foe many years held an important station in his M ijesty:s M int. The tag witness called Wit Wm. Seale! who stated that on Tuesday last he was a:ll:ing .akoi the boas of the Canal, in company with 'liosnas Steel, and that he found, lyiag op the bank, a walking.stick, which induced him to look into the water, sup. l nosing it might hate belonged to some person who had drowned h --- Irnadf. On looking into tht. water, he saw the upper part of a body, which, with the assistance of hie companion, he gut on shore. Near to the same spot, in the water, he found a hat, and a note addressed— " Mr. Forbes, Camberwell green. " The reward for taking this is in my hie In answer to questions from the Coroner, the witness stated that there was nothing in the hat. lle supposed that the wind had blown the hat off the bank into the water, and hence the reward alluded to had been lost. Thomas Steel corroborated the above evidence. _ _ Thomas Hawkins, a man who attends the locks, deposed to assisting in removing the body. In his pockets they found a sovereign, about We. in silver, and a valuable gold watch and ap pendages in his fob. The watch had stopped, and the hands pointed to five minutes past one o'clock, about which time it is supposed the deceased committed the fatal act. Mr. Forbes, surgeon, of Camberwell-green. deposed to being acquainted with the deceased, whose person he identified. He had known him upwards of twelve years, and had attended him pm.' fessionally during the last twelve months ; he was a ff licted with the atone and gravel, front which he suffered very severely, and for which he had twice, within that period, undergone an operation by Sir Astley Cooper. He had received temporary relief from these operations, but soon relapsed into his former state. The effects of this affliction seemed to witness to have impaired his mental facul ties. He would frequently talk very irrationally on the subject of his complaint. and was at times very desponding. The impression on his mind woe. that the disease would terminate in a speedy and more than ordinarily painful death. Witness saw the deceased twice en the 51onitity n:orning. but did not at either of these in terviews ohscrve anything particular in his manner. (In the Tues day morning witness called at his residence, and was informed that he was not at home, and about four o'clock on the same after- noun received information of his having been found in the canal. A note addressed to witness had been found near where the body was lying, and which he produced. It was as follows: Ott the outside. " Mr. Forbes, " Surgeon, " Camberwell-green. " Reward for taking this is in my bat." In the inside. " Adieu, dear Forbes " I cannot bear my feeling% any longer. " Yours, " IL FLETCHER." The ante Wli written in an agitated hand. Witness was of opinion that the deceased was not in a sane state of mind at the time he committed the act. _ . . ...... The Cottox En observed, that it was pretty dear from the evi dence that the unfortunate deceased was insane at the moment he perpetrated the rash act. The Jury alinint instantly returned a verdict—" That the de ceased had drowned himself, being at the time in a state of insanity." Immediately after the Inquest the body was removed in a hearse, brought down for this purpose, followed by the private carriage of the deceased and those of two other gentlemen. Another inquest was held before J. G. GEL L, Esq., Coroner for Westminster, at the Feathers public-house, Dean -street, Wes►- minter, on the body of Charles Schmitz, Esq., attached to the Bavarian Court. Robert Fenton, a lighterman , deposed, that on Thursday morn ing he was on bo ard the Cornelis yacht, lying in the River Thames, off the, westward of the Penitentiary, Milbank. There were on board three Gentlemen, two named Russell, and a 31r. Defoe. One of the party observed, that something had run foul of their buoy, and on going ashore in the gig, one of the Russells ex claimed, "Oh! my God, it is a man ! ' He immediately fastened a tope about his person, and towed the corpse ashore; it appeared to him to have been a long . time in the water. On searching the body he found forty sovereigns in his purse, and 16s. I Id. loose In his pocket ; a gold watch was in his fob, also in his breast-pocket a red leather pocket-book, with papers written in the Bavarian language. He took them into the city, and had them translated. He afterwards applied at the Alien-o ffi ce, where he ascertained he resided at No. 6, Norfolk -street, Strand. Mr. Lawrence Caton, son of Mr. Caton, sumfeen deposed that the deceased resided at his father's house, No. 6, Norfolk-street Strand, for the last twelve months ; was a native of Bavaria ; ha d come to this country for the purpose cf collecting patterns of porcelain and minerals for the King of Bavaria. Ile went to the mines in Corn. wall, and was absent about three months, with which exception he constantly resided at his father's house. The last time witness saw him alive was a fortnight since. lie was a man of very sober ha bits, not at all addicted to drinking, nor was he aware of his being subject to insanity. Coroner—Can you acquaint me if the Bavarian Minister is aware of his melancholy death ? Witness-1 waited upon the Ambassador this morning upon hearing of his death, and he told me he would undertake the charge of his property, and also to make proper arrangements for his interment. Juror—Was the deceased in the habit of seeing much company ? The witness answered in the negative. (The deceased's card was here handed to the Jury, on which the following was written :—" C. Schmitz, Commissary Inspector cf Alines to the Manufactory of Porcelain to his Majesty the King of Bavaria, and Alember of tbeAcedemy of Scienceof Munich, Corres pondent of thehoetetyof the ?fionnd Histerreiraris, No. 6, Nor folk-street, Strand.") The evidence being closed, the Colic ti Ea stated to the Jury, that as no proof had been adduced before them to shew how or by what means the deceased had got into the water, it was impossible to re. cord any other verdict than that the deceased was found drowned. The Jury returned a verdict to that effect. The Coroner and Jury expressed their opinion that Fenton, the lighterman, was richly deserving of wine reward for his conduct and honesty, and recommended him to the notice of the Bavarian Alinister.
