I 71.j.17ii I • • «' singled out, both of them being very well known, 114 Defeo(!ants in this action, for the purpose of mi. pressing the public with a belief, that their conduct encouraged the riots which took place in Westmin.. 'ter iii March last ; and thus an attemit was made to throw reflection. out individuals who were friendly to Reform. The Learned Counsel stated, that he would prove, by incontestable evidence, that the mob, who did all the mischief coaciilaiiied of, was hired by Mr. Lamb's Committee. to which the Plaintiff belniiged--and, if he brought this ract twine to the Plaintiff, the Jury must find ts verdict Gtr the Defendants, since he who employed a mob could tint recover any compensation from the hun dred, if the peiSiiia he had caused to rissemble yet her c.ninitted depredations ou his own property. Ile then called G. W. Waller, who deposed that be bad been employed in the late election, by a person of the stone or Bond, who belonged to the Bow-street esi.rblislimeot, to stand at the swath end of the hustings, for the purpose of cheering Mr. Lamb when he addressed the people. Hr was also when Mr. Hoblionse spoke, to make the most discordant noise posstble. AVitnests went with Mond to a public-house called the Ship, in James-stteet, Covent-garden, where lie saw o great bomber of persons, who were employed by B I to attend at the hustings for the putpose of supporting Mr, Lamb. Witness, however, did not like the com pany, amongst whom were Dolly Smith, Crnplry, Randall, Tom Jones, West Country Dick, arid se veral other fighting men. In consequeece, B I told him, as he wrote a good hand, he would he useful in making out lists of the men employed. Witness did art, and could speak to about 122 men who were fliployed by Bond. was present when money was paid to the different leaders. Some had 12 men under their command, others double that number. On Tuesday, the 21 of March, 'fifties% went with Bond to Mr. Lamb's Committee-rooms in Heeirietta-street. Bond went there for the purpose of getting money to pay the men. They saw I apt. Prescott, one of the Com mittee, to *horn 13 I said, that, as hr hail engaged the men for three days, he could not discharge them at a moment's notice. Captain Prescott said lie would nut give him any snore money, that lie hurl already received 241., and his men were worth no thing, for half-a-dozen stout fellows would beat them all. IVitness made out an account of the money paid by Bond to the men, which lie saw delivered to Mr. Holmes. The direction witness got from Bond was, Don't offend any person— but if you're struck, strike again!" It was on Tuesday, the 2.1 of March, that he went with Bond to the Committee-room. Though at first refused, bond ultimately procured 61. from Capt. Prescott. lie saw Bond change some of the mites afterwards. The Learned Coons? 1 here handed witness a copy of an account respecting the pay of the persons who were hired. Witness belived tt was correct. Mr. SCARLETT wondered how a documetit of that kind could have fallen into the hands of the opposite party. Certain it was, that the Commit tee-room had been robbed of various purrs, and the production of this might perhaps afford smile clue to the depredators. On his cross-elm:II:sabot) witness said, he eras Employed at present to make out tradesmen's ac taunts. He also acted as bailiff under the Sheriff of Middlebru. Bond. a Bow-street patrole. deposed that he was unacquainted with Mr. Wishart, and 41;d n o t believe hr would know him if he saw Was tint present when the candiddtes were proposed at the List election. During the drction he was fre quently at Mr. Lurch's Committee-room, in Hen vittta.street. The principal person he saw there, as managing person, was Mr. Holmes. He was at the Committee-room on the Saturday of the %rennet week or the election. He ►aw Mr. Holmes and Cap. rain Preseolt there, lint did not know any other per►ou. Hr received instructions up stairs, as to Whitt was to be done on the Monday, by a permit' %Ito. he was informed. wa► Mr. Maerlotiald. SCARLETT objected to this et•idctice. The Defendant's Counsel ought to connect Mr. Wishart with these tiausactions. At present two teals were iistroilticr(t, who, it dill tint appear, had any connexion with the resent Plaintiff. The CHIEF JUSTICE paid, it was very dif f icult to prescribe the course ii Counsel was to pursue. Much must be left to his discretion. This was hut the second witness--and, lie was of opinion, that the examination should be proceeded in. Mr. SCARI.Erf was convinced that his Learned Friend et►uld not, by this winless. connect Mr. Wishart with the transaction of hiring the mob. Mr. 1./10[81MR E declared, that, if his itistruc -14,1,6 ' l i d not lead lam to believe that he could con nect Mr. W'inliart with the hiring of the mob, lie mould not proceed. The Learned Counsel con tinued to examine the witness for a few minuteit; but, finding that the evidence of the witness did not forward the case, he proceeded to call Mr. Holmes, who deposed that he was Secretary to Mr. Lamb'' , central Conitnittee. Ile knew Mr. Wisher,. He very seldom appeared at the Com mittee-room. and took no part in any dismission. Plaintiff was not at the Committee on the Saturday of the second week of the election. He was then out of tows,. Plaintiff returned on the Monday. and called on him for the state of the poll. He never rame there for ally purpose, but tb ILSk the state of the poll. Witness could hot say Whether he was a Member of the (otutnittre or not. On hit cross-exarainatinti nittiesis said, that he never knew of any l,croo►► being ert►ployed by Mir. Lamb's Committee, to break the peace. Mr. Lamb's voters were much interrupted, when they attempted to approach the 111.101114 , , and rt::a were made to procure constables, for the purpose of protecting them. Towards the close of the t h e. tiot., the complaints of interruption were greatly increased, and public notice was given that pre cautions were token to secure free access to the hustitr4s. Doting the last two or three clay sof the election, it watt cast 1111 l ivy to coleet voters in the Committee-room, and to send them under pro. teetiou ►o the hu►tings. Witness h.til Peen Bond, and had refuted In pay him money on account of senners. He came. after the election was over, and presented a bill, which witness believed was not rorrt ct. He stolen that he would present it to the Committee—but he refused to pay him any tt►oueyt warps lie was directed to do so. He-examined.— Witness Gan no persons with buff and blue rtbbetid• &twit the election had terminated. The buff' and blue ribbands were deposited at the Coostitutian, in Bedforil.stieer, and were not de livered troikas to parties who received cards for that purpose. Jamey - Macdonald, Pig. M.P. WRI a .ember of Mr. Limb's Committee, if it could he so called. He could nut name the persons of whom it was composed. There was, in fact, no regular cerival Committee. Gentlemen, attached to Mr. "Lamb's interest, chiefly nceopied themselves in cati'vassisig in the different parishes. There was no public sub rcription to support Mr i.amb. Mr. IVishort was on the Imatings every (Li:. IVittiess wished dis tinctly in state, that, iu :tily measures he had taken to secure the approach of Mr. Lamb's friends to the hosting% Mr. Wiehart v:its never consulted ; and, lie believed, knew noiLing about them. lie was anxious to preserve the peace, and for that purpose canard application to be made to Mr. finite, at Buw-street, for a reinforcement of police officers. _ _ Croat-examinerl.—Towards the middle of the election frequent complaints were made by re• snernible persons, thrt they were interrupted on their way to the hustings. In consequence it was found necessary to look for collateral support. Oil the Thursday, in the 'could week of the election', representations were received from various quarters, that there was a deliberate design to prevent Mr. Lamb's voters fumy poth,,g,.duting the three last days. XVitliess in c..iissquience caused it to be stated to the electors that such steps would lie taken fur procurnig, a free access to the hustings ; as would enable them to exercise their franchise. On the Thursday, being himself on the hinitiogs, he saw three respectable persolis„ who came to vote fur 11r. Lamb, not only hooted and insulted, but fol lowed by a considerable portion of the mob down King-street. Witness m consequence, wrote to the Hi g h Constable, requiring further protection for the voters. He was advised by the High Consta.. life that there was no further disposable force. On the Saturday, in consequence of concurrent reports of the dangers to which Mr. Lamb's friends were exposed, witness applied to Bond, whom he underwood to be a respectable patrole, and desired him to attend, on the Monday, with a num ber of Melt, not more than 100, between the Coin inittee-rootu and the smith-end of the hustings. These persons were to receive a certain allowaoce, and Bowl well to be accountable for their conduct. They were positively instructed out. to carry slicks or any other weapons, and were directed to act en tirely on the defensive. No complaints were made of their conduct at the Committee-room, sod lie believed none of them made themselves obnoxious. Re-exemined.—Mr. Wishart was a general mem ber of the Cummittee—hut he knew nothing of the hiring of those persons. Ilad he attended he might have known it. %Vittless was not aware that Dolly Smith, or any other fighting man, was employed. Ile did not recollect. that. on the morning of the 3d of March, the High Constable called on him, mad ieque-ted him to withdraw those men, for fear of blood :•11ril. There wa. so much confusion that lie neither knew .what was said or done on that aaaaa niog. He saw some individuals at the Com mittee-room who wore blue and buff ribbands. Mr. I3LACKBURNE here intimated, that, though lie had other witnesses in attendance, lie could not carry his cave further. Mr. SCARE ETT was about to reply—when The Lfittr JUSTICE intimated, by a motion of his head. that it wolf nut necessary. Mr. SCAILLETT said, be wished to make a very few obseivations on some of the remarks which had fallen from his Learned Friend. He denied that these was Hite intention, in 'flaking Sir F. Bur. skit one of the Defect'knits on this occasion, to im pute to I any impropriety of conduct, or to re flect on those principles of reform which he pro fessed. Is was not, he believed, the first time, when respectable individuals, and successful caadi el nes. were made Defendants on similar occasions. Sir F. Burdett was a gentleman of the most re spectable character in private life, and could never he identified with proceedings of this kind. The Learned Coulterl observed, that whatever an indi vidual's politics were, he never, as far as he was concerned, brought them into a Court of Justice. The Llou. Barotitt, he knew, was an advocate of reform's. lie was aware of this, because he heard it froni his own lips—but his ()Onion was, that the Hon. Baronet wits the greatest enemy to reform in the kingdom. Here he would leave this pat of the solve'. Mr. Place nits a very respectable tailor, at Charing-cross. He hoped the Hon. Bartniet would have no objettion to see his name joined with that 01 .Ir. Place—since, lie was informed, Mr. Place p0e.41-eied abilities that fitted him for any station in society. • '('lie CHIEF JUSTICE slated, in a brief manner, the nature ur the case. That damage had been sustained was clearly substantiated in evident e, and, 14% nu illloWrr was given to the facts stated in the declaration, the Jury would find a verdict fur the Pla;iititt. The Jury having remained, for a short time, in consultation, The CHIEF JusrlGE inquired. whether there Was any puitit uu vdotch they wished to be iu formed ? The Foreman of the Jury said, he and his bre thren entertained a doubt on this case. It appear ed that ldtt permils acre employed by the Com mittee—of which Mr. Wishart was as much a member as any tither perbon—and the windows might have been broken by this mob. 'flue Cater JUSTICE said, Ale. Macdonald had clearly stated, that the persons employed were en gaged by huts, without any interference mi the part of Mr. %Vistula. That those persons were em ployed fur defensive poirposro, was evident, even from the testimony of %Valley., who swore that they ii.re not to strike any prison, unless they were themselves first struck. The Foreman observed there was much disssi milord). of evidence. Mr. I lolmes, for instance, said be saw no colours wore isy ally person, aud, on the contrary, Mr. Alticdonald laud be saw a great many persons wearing them. The CiIIFF Justtca van', the Learned Counsel for the Defendant haring stated that he could carry hi+ case no further. the. Learned Gentleman who uppeored • Ins the Plaintiff hid not deemed it liters- Pary ter address the Jury 03 to the farts. believing that. the case of his client was clearly made nut. But, as a doubt had arisen, the better course would I • t I • ". •. ..• ,`“ 1, wtt 1;1 s.l siro - 4,1 ssaksii he fur the Learned Counsel to athlretts the Jury. after which tie would recapitulate the evidence. Mr. SCARLETr then addressed thi `Jury. con tending that there was lid- di'scilpattcy its the errs. deuce, which he initintely examined ' One dr the Jurymen observed, that the null', bring disappointed in receiving y on the dry, might have attacked the windows of Mr. Lamb's friendo, in revenge. ••• KLETT argued that this was not the fact ; and, even if it were, as it did not appear that Mr. %Vishart had employed the mob, it would not exonerate the hundred from making gond the damage. The Jury, without trouts:Mg his Lordship to go Over the evidence, found for the Plaintiff—da mages 151. 134. CLARNE e. EURONTI. BART. AND PLACE. This action was similar to the last. The Plain• tilt is a publican. residiss.; iu Stanhope-street. Clare market ; his house was in the imerest of Mr. Lamb. Oss the evening of the 3d of March the popish ce attacked it, and broke Ins windows. The dassisge amounted to 61. 134. 6.1. Mr. IILACKitt/IttiE submitted to his Lordship, for his drcisi )))) ,whethrr the mob, by whom the mischief was dune, was such ass assemblage of people its was contemplated by the Act of Parliament, which was intended to put down seditious assemblies. The CHIEF JUSTICE held, that a mob assembled together to do any Alegil art, must he deemed a riotous and tumultuous its.efeibiage—and therefore came within the Ines )) i))g of the statute. There was, bebides, a ►pecirie clause which met this parti cular Car!. The Jury found for the Plaintiff—damages 61. 13s. olin.tta. V. •URDETT, BART. AND PLACE. This action, like those which preceded it, arose out of the 1-tte Westminster election. Mr. O'Neill keeps the Regent's Coffee-house. Newcastle-street. Strand, where one of Mr. Lamb's C mitten was accustomed to assemble. Ou the 3d of March, the mob visited his house twice; first at half-past four in the evening, and again at half-past eight. They broke lite windows and window-sashes, and also the gas-pipe belonging to the lamp at the front door. Vet. tict for the Plaintiff—damages 131. 2t. V SHELLRY V. BURDETT, BART. AND PLACE. The Plaintiff ir the owner of the British Coffee. house. Cockapur-street. On the evening of the 3il of March the mob attacked his house, and bloke windows to the 'mount of 9!. 13e. The Jury found fur the Plsiutiff to that amount. SIR THOS. H•RYET FARQUHAR U. BURDETT, BART. AND PLACE. The Plaintiff in this case is owner of a house in Park-place, St. James's -street. part of which he had let for the use of one of Mr. Lamb's parochial Committees. On the 3d of March the snob attack ed the house and committed depredations to the amount of 321. 4s. Verdict fur the Plaintiff to the full *monist. DAVIS P. BURDETT. FART. AND PLACE. _ The Plaintiff is owner of the St. Anted Coffee house, Dean -street, Soho—and, being in the in terest of Mr. Latnb,'the mob paid him a visit on the 3d of March, and destroyed windows. Venetian blinds, a looking-glass, • glass beirufet. and a variety of glass and china. They also struck the beer-machine with a stone, and set the liquor run ning about the bar. The damage was estimated at 45/. for winch rain the Jury found a verdict. THE EARL OF SEFTON v. BURDETT, BART. AND PLACE. Mr. SCARLET? stated that this case was similar to those winch hod previously been tried. The Noble Lord who was the Plaintiff in this case, had supported M►. Lamb—a circumstance which he was ready to avow and justify. Oii this account, his Lordship's house in Arlington-street was vi sited by the mob, on the 9d of March, at the mo went when he and his family were at dinner. The rioters proceeded in their usual course of devasta tion, and broke his windows. He understood that his Learned Friend intended to defend this case, al though it puzzled him not a little to conceive what solid defence would be set up. When be saw the Noble Plaintiff oil the Bench, he b■d supposed that it was intended to call him as a witness on some of the preceding cases. He had not, however. beelfasked to give evidence, and pe►haps he was only smbprtia ed, that lie might bear the attack which would pre. aridly be made on hie►, with just as little rhyme or reason us that which had been made on his house by the mob. A notice had been put in by Mr. Hayward. the Defendant's attorney, requiring the Plaintiff to produce a certaiu letter and account. dated the gth of March, and addressed by Mr. Bond to Mr. James Macdonald. How his Learned Friend's client had contrived to get a copy of this document into his possession, it was not easy to explain—und it was a little extraordinary that Lord Sefton should be called on to produce a letter addressed to Mr. Macdonald. He, however, would give his Learned Friend •the full advantage of all the documents that might have been taken from Mr. Lamb's Commit - tee-room—but, even with the assistance of those documents, and of the defence which he had set up in the second cause, lie believed his Learned Friend would be unable to persuade the Jury to give him • verdict. It appeared in evidence, that, between seven and eight o'clock on the 3d of March, a large body of people proceeded to the Noble Plaintiff's house in Arlington-street, forced open the iron gates which led into the court-yard, broke the windows and lamps , and did other damage. Mr. ISLACICOURNE addressed the Jury on behalf of the Defendants. The Learned Gentleman said, be meant to offer the same defence in this ease as be had already done in that in which Mr. Million was the Plaintiff—with this only exception, that be entertained confident hopes of being able to cno nect the Noble Plaintiff with the hiring of a nicb, which he would clearly prove was hired by Mr. Lamb's Committee. Ile denied aittigetlier the right of any individual to pay • party for hit de fence in passing through the streets. If au indivi dual were in dread of assault, he might exhibit articles of the peace against those front whom he feared violence, or he might apply fur the a.si.tance of the civil power—but be was not authorised to hire persons for lair protschou. This doctrine Was laid down in Hawkins's Heys of the rowN, a wink always held in the highest esteem by the Court.

SCAR LETT objected, as not proving any connexion be tiscen Lord Sefton atul Mr. Lamb'. Committee. The Ciiixr Jtiartcu held the objection to be good. Mr. 11. Uumbe was next examined.—lle eluted that he WAS on acti►e friend of Mr. Lamb, at the Tate election. Lord was also o supporter iif that Gentleman. There was a subscription to de. fray the expensea—to %loch. lie believed, Lord Selton ►ubscsibed, but he ciiuld sot speak positively to the fact. He saw Lord Sefton at different times in Henrietta-street--but he did not know thdt lie woo • Member of any Committee. Indeed, pr,i perly speaking, he did not know of the existence of any regular Committee. Mr. Ilt.ACKauaflti intimated, that he could not carry Lord Sefiiiii's connexion with the CO 11111 l or rather the iio.Cominittee, for it appeared to have vanished, further than this. Mr. SCA MATT said a few words in reply. The CiIIEF JUSTICE said. a case was clearly made out. and tau answer was given to it—the Jury must therefore find fur the Plaintiff. Verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages. 241. CV. 21. [Lord Sefton sat on the Bench all day. Mr. Macdonald took his station with the King's Counsel.] OLD BAILEY, WEDNESDAY, JULY 7.

James Roberts, a private in the Coldstream (2d) regiment of Guards, was capitally indicted for stealing in the dwell. ing.hoosc of Catherine Hender,on and Elisabeth Alcuck, of Dover-street, 501. on the 12th May last. The Ge►s of this case have also been frerriently before the public, the robbery having arisen from the circumstance of the fire which occurred in Dover-street, on the morning of the day stated io the indictment. On that acce , own the Priv goner *as one of sixty-two others of the Guards called out to assist in extioguishing the fire, and in removing the pro perty of such houses as were thieatened with danger.
