LAW lIVTFLUGENCS. COURT OF CHANCERY, BATUZDAT, Nov• 20. 111 HE THE Presenting CHAMT. The petition in this Charity was originally presented before the Mauer of the Rolls in 11120, for the purpose of ascertaining with certainty what were the objects of the will of Lady Puckerape. This lady died in the parish of Hartley as long ago as in the rel,,tn Of Queen Elizabeth, leaving by her will the real property vested in ti oven, to be made applicable to two charitable objects ; tint, the relief of nom. widows ; and second, the maintenance and support o.l'w children. The petition was presented under the Sid Itio 111 c . 1011, which enacts that " it shell be lawful fur the Lord Cbunreller, Lord Keeper and Commissioners for the custody of the litcat Seal, and for the Master of the Rolls of the Court of Exche sleet, tied they are hereby required to hear such petition in a sum mary way. and upon affidavits, or such other evidence rim shall be p toduccil on inch hearing, to determine the same, and to make such order therein, and with respect to the costs of such applications, as to him or them shall seem just." The Master of the Rolls, on the hearing of the petition, directed a reference to the Master, and the Master bail reported that the accounts of the trustees had been reeulerly kept and entered. The Master was then directed to re view his report, and to inquire further as to the ob;eets of the testa trix's bounty, whether it was her intention to aniline the purpose* of her charity to the pariah in which she died, or aliundr. The Master reported that the testatrix's Intention was to extend her cha ritable purpose, beyond the parish in which she died. Before this report the Master of the Rolls made an order ; and from that order the present appeal was presented. Before the merits of the ease were discussed. Me. (Counsel with Mr. Heald against the appeal), took a prelim'. nary objection to the jurisdiction of the Conn, founded upon the Ac: 82 Oeo. 111. upon which the petition had been originally pre sented. B By this Act, it was necessary that an appeal from an order .t the Mater of the Rolls should be brought beture the expiration of two years; and in the present case a north longer pened than twe_rpies had elapsed. The Loin CHANCE LLon said he would look into the Act be tween this and Monday, and when he cattle into Court he woulu give his opinion upon the objection. It was certainly to him quite a new point. M ith respect to the Act :04(1 Geo. 111. it was cer tainly said to he an Act giving a summary mode of relief, Lut he very much doubted whether the original proceeding by hill did lint, after all, save both time and ezpease to the partite. :Or. HALT and Mr. MANE were then heard upon the merits of the petition, and the further arguments were postponed. His 140111DEHIP promised to give judgment tin Monday in the cases or Farquharson and Seaton, Garrick and Lord Camden, and some other rases. Ilia Lordship rose at twelve o'clock, to attend the Council, as we understand, on the subject of the Recorder's Report. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, SATVIDAT, Nov 20. roLRY AND TLAIrcHT V.

The fact was, teat the defendant had printed the uld play with the title of the y!sintitfs, name!y '• A Woman Never I eat ; or the Widow of I.:lndult."

The VicE.Citi.icE•Lbse.—Has the defendant copied any part of the new play ?

AIL Amin assented to this suggestion, and the case stands over ull Monday mitt (this day). COURT OF KING'S BENCH, SATURDAY, Nov. 20. THE KING t. THE MAYOR OF COLCHESTER: Mr. Jessor r otorea for • rule to she, cause why a Mandamus should not issue to the Mayor of Colchester, commanding hint to siren in Mr. Ilorat:o Perkins as a free Burgess of that rough. Jo the modern charter of the Corporation of Colchester, Mr. Perkins lead been named by the Crown as one of the Common Council of the Borough fee life, and by the e:harter it was ordained, that in cast of any vacancies, by death or otherwise, the vacancies should in future, be tilled up from amongst the free Burgesses. Mr. Per kin, was not, in fact, a free Burgess at the time of his nomination as a Councilman, nor had he since been admitted to his freedom, and having acted as a free Burgess, a Imo warrii4ie information was moved against him last Term, to 'hew by what authority he so acted. On that occasion the Court refused the rule, on the ground that by accessary implication a Common Councilman was entitled to all the privileges uf a free Burgess ; and as Mr. Perkins was named in the Charter as one of the modern Common Caned. men, he was so entitled. The Learned Counsel cited the report of that application, from 4 Tenn Reports, and seemed anxious to ascertain whether the Court adhered to the opinion then expressed. Since that application, and upon the authority of what the Court then said, Mr. Perkins had applied to he sworn as a free Burgess, in order to Ilia exereising the right of voting fur certain annual offi. ems in the Borough, and the 3layor having refused to swear him in. the present application became necessary. The Charter being handed to the Court, Mr. Junks Bowser said, it seens to me that the Charter hav ing made Mr. Perkins a 4'ommon Councilman, he became, ipso facto, a Common Councilman, with all the rights, authorities, and prinleges to that office belonging. Ile is to take the Common Oouneilman's oath, and that is all. Mr. Justice llotuoYn.—lt seems to me, from the Charter, that there is no necessity for admitting him to the office of a free Bur gess ; as a Common Councilman he is also entitled to the rights uf • free Burgess. That was my opinion on the former occasion, and I think en still ; bet whether that be sour not, if he takes the oath of a Common Councilman, and he is admitted to that office, men he is cn'itled to all the rights and privileges of that office, whether it includes the rights and privileges of a free Burgess er not. The LAID CHIEF JusTrcr had left the Court to attend the Privy Council, and Mr. Justice LIT TLEDALI: was gone to Guild hail Sittings. Mr. Jae sor r. took nothing by his motion. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, SATIAIDAY, N0v.20. 1:1 Tar. TIATTEE OT AWNA WARTA HARRISON Y. STONE, GENT. Mr. SeTje3llt VAUGHAN moved fur a rule to shew cause why the defendant, an attorney, residing near Gloucester, should not refund a certain sum of money he had received from the complainants, and why he should not dive them an account of certain property which he nail sold on their behalf. The Learned Scrjeant founded his motien on rr-partr affid a v its, which stated that the complainants carried on business in the vicinity of Gloucester; that, being in tear of arrest on account of a debt due from them to a third prawn, Cier applied to the defendant fur his professional ass:stance. V-r.we he rendered them any assistance, lie required the advance of 17V1. The complainants not being then able to advance such a 1. , 14), raised 1011/. which they placed in his hands, and at the same tinte.'by his desire, they executed an assignment of all their property M the two persons whom he procured to become bail. one of althorn was alleged to be a mere man of straw, and the other was vie defendant's own clerk. The debt had been since satisfied, but the defendant refusal to return the money they had advanced to him, or to render any amount to the complainants, aho were, ti.erefore, compelled to have recourse to the summary power of the Court. The Cot:AT, considering that the mattes dun stated required, if true. some ansain, stopped the Learned Sergeant, and at unce grunted the rule. _ SCOTT S. EYE. In this caws debt of 51s. had been recovered in the Court of liequeits; and a writ of false judgment was sued out and made rcumahle in the Court of Common I'leas, where the matter was argued at cansideraLle length. The Come JUII7/CP: this day delivered the judgment in the use, which was, that a Court of COIIIIIIOII Law had no jurisdiction urn the decisions of the Court of Requests, which, in the statute by which it was constituted, was called a Court of Equity. llis Lordship expressed great satisfaction that the Court hail ro juris. diction in the case, as otherwise litigious parties would defeat the benevolent intention of the Legislature in instituting the Court of Requests, by appealing to Courts of Law. The rest of the Judges of the I ours concurred in this opinion. SII ERIFF'S COURT. SATURDAY, Nov. 20. .NICD AND ANOTHER, EXF.CUTOR9 OF mot V. NFU% AND OTHFRA. . Thin was an inquiry to as.‘l,s the damages sustained by the planoills, in eon,emience of breach of the covenants of the lease ot a public-lonise, which the defendants took from them and underirt. Mr. HOLLAND stated the plaintiff.' case—The plaintif f s, he said. were executory of the late Mr. Rich, and in that capacity, Pia6C a lam of the Viwksiiire Grey public-house, in !falls-huild_ era, Filer-lane, to the Mimi:V.l. for It years, at the rent of WI, a•year. By the covenants of the lease, which was admitted be tween the tinnier.. the ilKei:lants were bound to lay nut two hun dred pounds en the premises. to have it kept as a licensed public -I..exe, and take care th 2 license sheold not be forfeited, and to de- Bret it up in good r. pair, and with the license, on the expiration of the kyle. By the misconduct of the tenant to whom they had underlet the linuic, the license had been taken away by the Ma gistrates : the house bad been greatly dilapidated, and the pos session had not been delivered up at the expieation of the lease, which took plate on the Vith of March ; and the Jury were to avmse the damages sosmined by the plaintiffs, or rather the chil dren, far whom they were trustees, in consequence of those breaches s the covenants of the lease on the part of the defendants. Some time previous to the expiration of the lease, the house was put up to mile by the plains, and sold by Mr. IVinstanley, the atm t .oiteti, to Mr. Drookion, • public's' ) tut 63W. ; but on the apt. ration of the lease the defendants did not deliver up the possession, i and Mr. Brookmon, after some delay, declared off the purchase, and threatened to arrest Mr. Winstanley for the deposit of 1301. he had paid into his hands at the time of making the purchase, and to sue the plaintiffs for the expense lie had been at in investigating the title and making out a conveyance, which amounted to nrii. ; and, to prevent further expense, the plaintiffs repaid him both sums. After they got possession of the lease from the defendants they sold it by auction, and it was then so dilapidated that the highest price that could be obtained for it was MIS/. But besides those items of damage, they were still to consider that which was the greatest of all. the less of the license, which gave the house a considerable part of its value, and whirh, in consequence of the manner in which it had been conducted by the tenant to whom it had been underlet by the defendants, had been taken away by the Magistrates, and would probably never be restored. The only answer he an ticipated was that they should have gone into Chancery to compel Mr. Ilrookson to complete his purchase; but that the Jury would be satisfied would not have been a prudent course of proceeding, and would probably have greatly increased their demand fur damages against the defendants. Tile lease, with the covenants, as stated by Mr. Rolland, was admitted. Mr. Bailey, in the employ of Messrs. Winstanley and Sons, proved the sale of the house by them to Mr. llrookson, by auction, on the 7th of March, 1923, for MI. Mr. Itmokson paid a deposit of 1301. The expense of the sale including the duty, was 441. Ns. Gil. The sale was to be completed on the 25th of the month in which it was made. . . . Mr. Skelton, solicitor to the plaintiff; proved his having written three letters to the defendants, trom the 3lst of May, to the Gth of August, 1823, calling on them to deliver up the hoax ; and stating in the first two that the purchaser was threatening them with legal proceeding+ in consequenoe of the delay, and in the last, that he had declared off the purchase and was proceeding for the recovery of hit deposit and costs. Ile afterwards paid the deposit, and cots and interest, to Mr. Brook.on'a attorney. The latter items amounted to 981. A person in the defendants' employment told him they were doing all they could to get the tenant out of pos session ; end they sent the key of the house on the 15th of August. Mr. Thomas George Weston, Mr. I.lrookson's attorney, stated his having received his costs, amounting to WM. Bs. 61. from Mr. Skelton, the costs were all necessarily incurred. Mr. Roper, a surveyor, surveyed the house in February 11123, and February 1821—it was dilapidated : he estimated the damage in the first instance at 150/., and in the Litter at 1231. Mr. IVindsor, a stationer in l'haneery.lane, stated that in the year 11122-3, he served the office of' constable in his own right in the Liberty of the Rolls. The Yorkshire Grey public-house was kept in a very had manner. There was a cock and hen club kept in a ; he went there one night at two o'clock, when the club was sitting; there was a female in the chair. The bad character of the bowie was constantly reported to the Magistrate. Mr. Symonds, collector of taxes stated that the Yorkshire Grey, before the license was taken away, was a house of call for thieves. Read. the police °Weer, gave a similar testimony. Mr. Richards, Llerk to the Licensing 31agistrates, proved that the license was taken away at the September Sessions, 1823, in con sequence of the complaints against the house. Mr. Herring, an auctioneer, stated that he sold the house by public auction on the 2-Ith of September list, for A 951. if it had been in good misir, and bad a license, it would have brought from 1,83111. to 1,2012. . . This was the plaictifTs case. Mr. BROW; 14 AM seW reused the Jury for the defendants. It was evident, he said, that the defendants could have no wish that their under.tenant should injure the property they were hound to protect, and had also bound hint to protect, sUll they had done every thing in their power to prevent it. The Learned Gentleman made some observations on the amount of the bill of costs paid to 31r. Brook. son's attorney, which, he said, would not be so large, only he knew he hail solvent defendants to look to for payment. But the largest item of their damage, as they made it appear, was the loss of the license; hut though the Ikense had been withdrawn, it by no means followed that it would not be restored to any proper person ; and he would prove that the house had long been of very little value as a public-house. 31r. Kean, broad-cooper to Messrs. Men: fifteen years, knew the Yorkshire Grey—it was never a good house; the tenants some times left it twice in • year. lie served Cooly, the last tenant, with notice to quit, and applied to him to do so • dozen times, and actually gave his wife money at last to get her out. lie would not give mote for it than for a private house, the business was so bad. Mr. Bell, an appraiser, thought the present value of the house, if it had a license, would be about six hundred pounds. Two other bmkers gave similar evidence. AIL Box Lawn addressed the Jury on the evidence. Mr. I:nder Sheriff llENcuseaw, in his address to the Jury, in.. formed them that they were called upon to give damages for four breach(a of covenant, and also for the expenses of side and costs in. curred in getting possession ' • they were next to consider what sum the plaintlff was entitled to for the loss of license, the tenant had covenanted that he would do his best endeavours to keep the house open as a licensed public-house, and yield up the same at the end of the term ; it was certainly very hard that the defendants, not oc cupying the premises, was called upon to pay the money, but they were liable for the conduct of their tenant. It was clear that • loss had been sustained, and it only remained for the Jury to assess the the damages. . . . . After a short consultation, the Jury returned a verdict for 69.51. 4s. 6d. thereby allowing 3001. for the loss of license. POLICE. QUEEN-SQUARE. Caroline Aliso', alias Till, was brought before the Magistrates by Colman and 'lowers, together with Sarah WiMatta, Catherine Blackburn, and Elizabeth Lowe, notorious prostitutes of the wont description, who infest St. James's Park, for being disorderly. Alloop, on being taken into custody, made use of the most in. famous language, threw herself on the ground, screaming aloud " 3lurder !" and it was with the utmost difficulty they could con vey her to the watelthouse ; and on passing through Tothill-street, between two and three o'clock in the morning, her conduct became so outrageous that the whole of the neighbourhood were alarmed by her shrieks, as if murder was actually committing, and she con tinued this violent behaviour during the period she was locked up. They were ordered to be itnprisoned one month to hard labour, and Allsop to find bail for her future good behaviour. Irmo. Barden and Benj. Barry, two respectable housekeepers, residing in Strutton Ground, appeared before the Magistrates, on the complaint of mitiJiunes Perry, also living in the saute place. It appeared that Mr. James Perry, a man about six feet high, and lusty withal, entered the Half-moon public-house, and or dered half a pint of porter. The two defendants, with some friends, were en,ioying themselves over a pot of hefty Ives, out of which complainant partook several times, and then became desirous to withdraw; it was, however, the opinion of the company, that he should share a part of the expenses, to which proposition prudent James would not agree, and was about to make his exit, when un fortunately Burdett laid hold of the tail of his coat, and accidentally rent it asunder. The Magistrate considered it a foolish piece of business; ordered the complainant to pay the whole of the expenses, and dismissed he case. MURDER AT BRONTI.PLACE, IVALIVORTLI. Saturday morning an Inquest was held at the Hone and Groom Tavern, Walworth-road, before Charles Jentmstt, Esq. Coroner for Surrey, to inquire into the cause of the death of Caroline Dew. hinge, who, it was stated, hail been murdered by her father. The Jury being sworn, adjourned to Ilronti-plaee to view the body of the deceased, which was found lying in a room on the first floor, upon a blanket. It is impossible to describe the feelings of the Jury on witnessing the spectacle that presented itself to their eiew. The little innocent lay on its back ; its bead and face shock. ingly disfigured by blood and bruises. From the face to the feet there was scarcely) a place free from injury. The Jury exclaimed, " Good God ! what a dreadful sight." On their return to the jury. room the following evidence was taken : John ,tdanis was sworn-1 em a shoemaker, residing In Bronti place, East-strew. Camberwell. I saw the child after it wa%mur deved-1 mean dead; etense me using that expression; I am much agitated. The child wes covered with blood, and alive when I first saw it. It wee uncut shocking sight -IThis witness hefe Became very faint, and would have fallen, had not some of the Jury prevented him; he was removed into the air.] Mrs. Adams, the wife of het witness was called, and she stated_ On Wednesday last, about five o'clock, Mrs. Dewhirst, the mother of the deceased, came to my house to seek shelter from the violence of her husband, who, she said, was going on in such a way, that she begged that I would go with her to her house. I went with tier, and knocked at the door, and her husband opened it; he was without his hat and coat; his hair appeared to stand on end, and he looked as if he were only. On Mrs. Dewhirst attempting to enter the house. he kicked at her, and struck her a blow on the breast. Mrs. D. asked for her bonnet and he said. " You m-y come in, but you shall not have your bonnet." Ile held the de ceased in his arms at this time, and took her up-stairs to bed, and then came down. Mrs. lkwhirst asked me to watch her husband ; and I put on a bonnet and shawl, lent me by a neighbour, to dis guise myself that lie might not know tue ; and I saw him come from his house and go up Ilronti-place ; he looked at me very hard and got out ct ivy sight. I went back to Mrs. Dewhirst, and ac companied her at her request, to search for her litieband, who Ras wine time afterwards found drinking at the lilason's Arms, East • lane. About half-past eleven the same night, 3lts. Deo hint came to me again, in company with a watchmar, and begged me to let her and her d wetter, a girl about seven years of age, stay in my house, as her husband was like a madman, and was beating the intent now deceased. rs. lkishirst requested the watchman to come and iutorm her when her husband was gone from home, which lie could discover by the light being removed from the front renon. Soon afterwards the watchman came, and said the light was gone, and Mrs. D. went with him ; she returned in a few minutes. and heegei me to go with her to her house, and get a dectnr. She said Mr. Dawhirst, she was afraid, had laid on the baby and strangled it ; and Mr. Swill, the surgeon, went to see the child. I went up stairs with Mr. Swift and found the deceased lying quite naked on the floor in a back mom. Her face was all over black and blue, and the blood was issuing from her mouth. There was blood about the floor in several places, and also again the wall, half a yard front the Sour. Mr. Dewhirst was standing in the room at this time, in his shirt sleeves. Ile said the baby hied fallen down stairs; that he picked it up. and had done the best he could for It. Juror—Waa there any blood on the stairs I Witnesa--None ; it was all on the room floor. The surgeon, Mr. Swift, begged .Mr. I)ewlinst to let him examine the child, and he told Mr. belt that he should net. Some warm wca was pro- THE BRITISH PRESS. cured, and she washed the blood off the child's face, head, and neck. 1 remained till between four and five o'clock in the morning, and the child was then alive. _ . _ Juror—Where was the mother from the time the surgeon arrived till five o'clock ? Witness—She wu in the house, down stairs. Coroner—lb you mean to say that the mother did not go up stairs at all during that time? Witness—l do say so ; I went back to the house between ten and eleven o'clock when the child was dying ; I stopped till it died. (Witness was mush affected.) Juror—Was the mother present when the infant expired ? wttr,ess__( Who burst into tears), no, Sir, she was not. Coroner—Did Mr. fleshiest remain in the room with the child till four o'clock in the morning ? Witness—No. Sir, he was taken Into custody some time before. Juror—Did Mr. Dewhirst make no observation t Witness-1 es, while I was lightirg the tire to boll some water, Mr. D. was down stairs, and begged the door to be closed, as he did not wish his neighbours to be disturbed, but he did not mind himself or family. The watchmen were in the house at the time. My Husband said, " What a horrid sight this is !" Mr. D. re plied, " .1 sight you call it, do you ?" Foreman—When you first entered the room up stairs, and saw the child lying on the Boor, did Mr. Dewhirst make no observation ? Witness—Yes; he said, '• Poor dear, how still it is !" Juror—Had you got a child of Mr. Dewhirst's to nurse Witness—Yes, I had another child to nurse for about two months, and it died at toy house. Coroner—Was the fattier fond of that child ? Witness—l can't say he was; he never came to see it while I nursed it, till it was dying. Mrs. Dewhirst at that time shelved me bruises upon her person, caused, as she said, by blows given by her husband, and sun also told me that her husband had no attic. Lion for deceased. Mary Ann Adams, a girl, aged lb years the daughter of last witness, sworn : —On W ednesday evening last, about half-past eight o'clock, I went, by the direction of my mother, to Dewhinit's house, upon the application of Mrs. Dewhirst. I found Mrs. Dewhirst and lour children in the back parlour. I remained there till past eleven o'clock, when I went up stairs, and saw the deceased lying on the floor on a blanket, cowered with a piece of carpet. I said, " blew her dear heart, bow good she is," and I saw she was then awake and quite well. I then came down stairs, and Mr. Dcwhirst climbed over the gate, and knocked at the door. Mrs. Dewhirst opened it. He saw me. and said that he would nut come in till the house was cleared. Mrs. Dewhirst then told me to go home, and go to bed, and I did so. It was then near 12 o'clock, and when I left the house Mr. Dcwhirat entered. It was prbposed to call a little boy, the brother of the deceased. named Arthur Dewhurst. lie was said to be only nine years of age. The boy was introduced into the Jury-room, he was over whcmed in tears, and sonic time elapsed before he could speak. He was examined as to the nature of an oath, and gave most clear and satisfactory answefs ; but some of the Jury opposed his being examined, on account of his youth and consanguinity to the accused. . . . Nl;.Silver, a surgeon, in Charlotte.etreet, Blaekfriars'-road, in. formed the Coroner that Mrs. Dewhirat was in the house, and was ready to be examined. Ile said he had attended the family professionally, and was satisfied that Mr. Dewhirst was in a state of insanity when he committed the horrid deed. The Coroner said that he should not examine Mrs. Dewhirst. John Meclauren, a watchman in Bronti.place, in addition to the evidence he gave on the clainir.etion of the accused at Union Ila ll, said, " I examined the premises about half-past eleven, and was going away, when Mrs. 'lee/hint asked me to be near the spot, as she did not know whet might happen. About half an hour after that, Mrs. Dewhirst came to my box with a girl, and said, •• Watch men, come out, for Mr. Dewhirst has threatened to cut my throat." I went with them to the gate, and Mrs. Dewhirst said, " I am afraid he will murder the child (the deceased), that is up stairs." I advised her to ■pPly to the neighbours, and she went to Mr. Adams's house; and she told me when I saw the light was out to come and inform her. Mrs. Dewhitst told me that her husband had struck the child with his Eat a day or two before, and it could not see out of one eye, and she thought that he had murdered it at that time. Mr. Sibree—That took place on the Monday. Witness continued--Mrs. Dewhint rung the gate bell of her house several times, and I beard the children cry out 'Father !" Mrs. Dewhirst calle d "Arthur!" and the children came to the front window : they appeared greatly alarmed, and I thought they would have thrown themselves out of the window. Mrs. Dewhirst asked the children to come down and open the door, and not make • noise. The children opened the dour and garden gate ; they were naked, except their shirts, and they clung round me in a state of terror. lilts. Dewhint asked the children where their father was, and they said they dad not know. She went into the house to get a light, and on feeling about site 'ounti her husband's hoots, and she said that he must be somewhere in the house. One of the boys said, "Oh, mother, my father has kicked Cary (the deceased) and knocked her about the room." I bad no light at that time, but as I was standing at the door, I heard a faint cry, or moaning, which I thought was that of a child, and the little boy called out, "Cary, what is the matter with you ?" The boy said something about the child being hurt; and I said I would go to another watchman fur a light, and I requested Mrs. I). and the children to wait there till I returned. They would not, and insisted on ac companying me, and they all walked with me, naked as they were, and without shoes, through the mud, to Mr. Adams's house. On the way there I told Mrs. D. that I thought her husband had nearly murdered the child, and she replied, " Oh, for God's sake don't say any thing about that, but go get a light, and say that a child is taken ill." I told her that I would set all was right. She told me that her husband was very passionate. After I had got a light, I went up stairs and saw Mr. Dewhirst lying on the floor in a back room. I did not see any child at that time. 1 went down, and Mrs. l)cwhurst went up stairs, and I heard her ex claim, '• Oh Dewhirst, yeti have sao:hered the child." Mrs. Dew s hirst came down stairs and went out of the house, and I did not see her for an hour afterwards. 1 said to my mates, ' Come, we must ate into this,' and we went up etairs. Mr. Dewhirst called out, " IVho comes here ?" I said, "The watch." He defied us, and said we should not come in. We entered the room by force, and I had some words with Mr. Dewhirst. He asked me, • how I could do so, when he had behaved so well to me." I said, "if you were my own brother, in such a shocking business I should do as I have done." Tring, my brother watchman, pulled up a piece of blanket from the floor, and he said, " berets a child." Mr. Dewhirst said, " there is nothing the matter with the child." I replied, " you a father, and say so; the child is covered with blood and bruises." The blood was then issuing from its nose, mouth, and neck. Mr. Dewhirst then took up • piece of rag and wiped the child's face, and said, "taw what is the matter; there is no thing the matter with that child ; I have been doing all I could for it ; ft fell down stairs ;" and he said something about " a day or two before." Mr. Swift, the surgeon, then came in, and he gave Mr. Dewhinit into my charge, as he could not examine the in fant while he way there, and I took him away in custody. I desired Mr. Dewhint to put his coat on, and he was in a ter rible rage, and swore he would not go out of the room. I said if he did not go out by fair means he should by foul. He said that he had got something about him that would soon settle us; I said we would try that on ; he then grew more calm, and was taken to the watchhouse. By a Juror—l can't say Mr. Dewhirst was in liquor; he was in a great fury. Mr. John Swift., a surgeon, of Newington, sworn.—On IVed ricsday morning I was called by Mrs. DCWIIiTII and Mrs. Adams, who requested I would come to Mr. Dewhirst's house immedi- ately. She said she thought her husband was tipsy and had lain upon the child and suffocated it, and she was afraid it we dead. I went with her to the house, and entered a back room up stairs and saw Mr. Dewhirst standing in the middle of the room, in a violent altercation with two watchmen. Mr. I). asked me what I wanted there? I told him I came to see his child. Ile said he would be cursed if I should see it. I told him if he did not treat me with civility, I should quit his house. On looking about the room, I saw the child; it was then alive, and covered over with a nig. I took it off; and on seeing the child's condition. I told Mr. I). that it Ice did nut sit down and conduct hinisclf properly while I examined it ! should give him in charge. lie swore he would not, and I gave him in charge, and he was taken down stairs. 1 then examined the child, anal found corsiderable violence had been used upon the thighs, legs, arms, particularly along the ,pinal column and, but tock. The whole external part of the head anal face were a mass of violence, which was of recent infliction. (In looking round the room, I saw several large patches of blood on the floor, and some of them had the appearance of being just wiped up with a piece of a flannel petticoat which lay on the ground, quite bloody. There was a quantity of blond on the skirting-board, anal on the wall, about a yard from the floor, with sonic human hair attached to it. I went down stairs, and ordered a warm-bath to be prepared, and seeing Mr. Dewhint sitting on a chair, I asked hint how it had happened ? Ile said he had done nothing to the child, and that the bruises on the face were caused by its falling down stairs some days before. I asked hint for a candle, and he said he knew no thing about housekeeping or candles, and he could do very well if he Marne a rogue of - a wife. Ile said he knew that he had done something that would hang him. :Mrs. Dewhirst said, that her husband hail had two candlew, and in his fury she supposed he had destroyed them. The little candle I had at first, having burnt out, I was kept an hour without a light or lire. When I procured a light and hot water, I put the child into a bath, and it was then in a dying state. The pupils of the eye were dilated, and it ap peared to labour under a compression on the brain. It was affected with rattling iii the throat, and continued in that state till eleven o'clock. when it died. This evening I opened the head, in com paoy another niet:ical man. 1 found ten or twelve ounces of blood on the brain, and corresponding marks of violence on the external surface of the skull. The pressure of the blood on the brain caused death. There was sufficient external violence to cause death. I fourth, in the niiddle of the room, a frothier strap, about a foot and a half hong, an inch and a half wide, and a quarter of an inch thick, upon which there were marks of blood. Juror—Dial nut Mrs. Dewhirst see the child at all Witness—l went away for some time after I had put the child in the bath, and I told Mrs. Dswhirat to try to administer a little brandy and water during my absence. After I had been in bed about Italian hour, Mrs. Dewhirst sent for me again, and she said that she had tried to put some brandy and water in the child's month. but could not. as it had got the rattlings in ita throat, and I could not get her to gm up to the child afterwards. Thomas 'irring, a watchman, in East-lane, Walworth, confirmed the evidence of Maclaurea, a, to his accompanying him to Dew hirst's house, about two o'clock on Thursday morning, and con tinued : we found the outer.gate fastened, and Machu en got over it. (The witness described the opposition made by Dewhirst to tbeir admission into the room. j Mrs. Dewhirst went upstairs, and exclaimed, '• Oh led, my husband has murdered my child," and she came down stun. On our going into the room, Mr. Vewhirst " D—n the child, there is nothing the matter with it.--no father In the world could have done better for it than I have done." He also said, the child had been out at nurse, and he had paid right shilling • a week for thirteen months. I asked him the cause of the bruises on the child's head, face, &c., and lie said that the child had fallen down stairs. I asked how long since ? and he said, a week ago. (The witness produced a strap and a bundle of thilds' wearing apparel, very much torn and bloody.) Ales. Sarah Adams said, that she nursed the deceased for thirteen mont!.s, the father called only once to see it. On her going to Mr. Dewhirst to get her money, the child was not looked upon scarcely. John Adams being again examined, said, that when the children of lie. Dewhirst came to his house, one of them said, that their father hail dashed the child against the ground, and the other said he had killed poor Caroline. Joseph Snow, the night constable, swom.—On Mr. Dewhirst being brought to the watchhouse, about four o'clock on Thursday morning, I asked him what he had to say to the charge? and he said it was not a proper place to answer the question. I searched hint, and took a pen-knife front him and a button. He said, " you do not suppose I am going to make away with myself, or to sisal ' low the button." He said, that he hoped I would send for Dr. Sibrec, of Illackfriars-toad, to examine the child, and he should be satisfied with his decision. I then locked him up in the cage ; during this time he foamed at the mouth. On the sante morning, about 9 o'clock, I went to see the child, and found a pair of child's stays with blood on them, the strings of which were tied, and they 1 appeared to have been torn oft' the person who wore them. Mr. J. Thompson, a trunk-maker, of Lung-acre, sworn—l have known the accused for two years; within the last six months he has been in embarrassed circumstances. lie called a meeting of his cre ditors, and gave up all he had, and the creditors took a compost. Lion, all except one. He called on me two months ago, and in formed me that the house which refused to compound with the rest of the creditors had fulled a writ against him. On Sunday last lie called on me k he was exceedingly wild; he said he should go to a prison, that his family were starving, and that his brother had gone out of town without seeing hint. I believe that Mr. Dewhirst has been decidedly insane tar two months. I mentioned to many per sons, before this circumstance took place, that he was insane. Mr. Dewhirst kept a carpet-warehouse in ltlackfriars-road. Arthur Dewhirst was again examined by the Jurors—lle stated. I did not see any one strike the deceased. She slept in the hack room. Juror—Where did you and the other children sleep ? Witness—ln the front room. Jura—Did the deceased always sleep alone in the back room ? Witness.—Not always ; she sometimes slept with us in the front. The Coroner addressed the Jury. He said, that the child had died from the most extraordinary violence committed on her person, was a fact beyond dispute; and it only remained for the Jury to say who was the poison or persons who committed it. The Jury retired for a few minutes, and, on our re-admission, the foreman read from a paper the following verdict :—" We are of opinion that the child was killed by the violence of its father, Dewhirst." . . . The Coroner bound over the witnesses to give evidence on the trial, at Kingston, and issnsd his western against the accuarAL CHARGE OF MURDER. [From the Leeds Ilfereary.l ()n Thursday se'nnight, an inquest was held . by James Wigles worth, Esq. of llalifax, one of the Coroners for the West Riding, at the house of Mr. Pearson, the Star Inn, Rastrick, on the body of James niggles, domestic servant of John Amiltage, Esq. of M'oodhouse, in Itastrick, who had died on the preceding Tuesday, in consequence of wounds received on the night of the 6th inst. The following gentleman were sworn of the Jury :—Mr. Geo. Crowther, of Fishy, foreman ; Mr. John Wilkinson, Mr. Thomas Bottomley, of Resnick; Mr. Fenton Lambert, of Elland Hall, Mr. William Coultas', Mr. William Watson, of Elland; Mr. Abram Crowther, Mr. John Barber. Mr. Isaac Thwaites, of Southourani ; 31r. Martin Manley, Mr. William iliddop, Mr. William Seholefielii, of Brighouse. This important investigation commenced at ten o'clock in the morning, and was continued until midnight, when an adjournment took place until the following day. The inquiry was resumed in the forenoon of Friday, and did not terminate until eight o'clock that evening, when the Jury returned a verdict of IVilfat Murder against Anthony and John Bray, James and Christopher Tiffany, James Ellis John Dyson, Henry Nuttall, and John Dawson;— charging Anthony Bray as the principal, and the other seven as accomplices, aiding and abetting in the murder. From tile great length of these proceedings, it is impossible for us, in the crowded state of our columns, to enter into the details of the evidence given by the different witnesses, nor will this he necessary, as all the material facts elicited by this inquiry may be stated in a very narrow compass. No difficulty existed as to one very principal object of the injuiry. It was perfectly clear from the evidence of the surgeons who attended the deceased, and who afterwards examined the body, that his death was occasioned by violence, the skull being fractured, and a portion of the lock of a gun actually protruded upon the brain. It appears that on Friday, the sth of November, John Scott, game-keeper to Sir George Armitage, of Kirklees, Be ; M Emanuel Brook, game-keeper to John Armitage, Esq. of iVoodhouse, in Raietrick ; Janus Digg'.es, footman to the same gentleman ; and Enorh Garside, an assistant, had been ranging the woods, &c. in the manor of Fiaby, and came about eleven o'clock at night into a public-house at the top of Bradley-lane, kept by R. Hepworth, where they found the following persons:—Anthony and John Bray, Junes and Christopher Tiffany, James Ellis, John Dyson, Henry Nu:tall, and John Dawson. An altercation almost immediately commenced between this party and the gamekeepers, occasioned by sonic former grudge entertained by Ellis against the keeper of Sir George Armitage, towards whom he used very violent language, and threate. - ied to kill him. The quarrel afterwards became more general, and a fight ensued between Ellis and Brook, in which the latter had the advantage. The landlord with the view of preventing any further virilence, prevailed upon the keepers to go into another room, where they remained three quarters of an hour. when they quitted the house about midnight. The other party had gone about half an hour before, but it appears that they remained near the house, and as se,n as niggles and his companions went out, they assailed them with stoney. It is material here to state, that the keepers had three guns loaded, which they had deposited in a holly bush, near the public-house, and on being thus attacked they ran to secure their pieces. The assailants continuing to throw stones at them, Brooke was twice struck, the latter time just after he had recovered his gun, and with so much violence that he was knocked down. This so much irritated him that he fired off his piece, and slightly wounded Anthony Bray in the head and hand. The gun was loaded with shot No. 4, and shot of this description was after wards extracted from the head of Bray. The firing of the gun by Brook induced the other party to conic to close quarters. Scott, the game-keeper of Sir George Armitage, and Enoc!‘ Gareide, the assistant, sought safety in flight, and Brook and Digglea had to sustain the whole weight of the encounter. After a short struggle they were disarmed, and the assailants made a most cruel use of their victory, by beating them with the butt ends of their guns in the most savage manner, leaving them, as they supposed, dead on the field ; and one of the prisoners, Anthony Bray, perceiving that niggles moved, turned back and struck him twice on the head with the butt end of his gun, saying he would quiet him. 'limy then threw the body, which appeared to be I d'eless, over the fence into the lane, and went away. The other two keepers now returned to the assistance of their wounded companions ; and niggles, though so dreadfully hurt, contrived to walk to the public4toune, from which indeed they had not proceeded more than two hundred yards. The whole these occupied in the affray did not exceed a quarter of an hour. Giggles was afterwards conveyed to hie. Armitage's house, where he was aoentled by Dr. Alexander, of Halifax, Mr. Fryer. of Resnick, and Mr. Hopkinson, of Brighouse, surgeons: but every abut to save him proved unavailing, and lie expired, as we before stated, on Tuesday morning. This unfortunate man was in his 34th year, and had been in the family of Mr. Armitage, by whom he was much respected, ever since he was a boy. Mr. Annitage is most deeply a ff ected by this melancholy catastrophe. Both the guns were broken ; the piece which Brook tired was found near the place where Digglee had been knocked down, the other was found in an adjoining field on Friday ; it was still charged, thought the barrel had been broken front the stock. All the pri soners were young men, some of them not more than Ili years of age ; only one of them is married, and they all reside within to • miles of the place where this dreadful occurrence took plate, in the hamlets of Deighton, Sheepridge. and Netheroyd-hill. All the prisoners, with the exception of John Bray and John Thorson, were removed to York Castle, on Monday. Bray, who was not apprehended until Tuesday night, is in custody at Halifax, and Dawson, who has absconded, is yet at large. We think it but jug tire to the prisoners to remark, that the preceding narrative ought to be considered as an ex parte statement, as it is tn. inly drawn from the evidence of the prosecutors. All the persons likely to have given a more favourable account of the transaction being im plicated in the charge. ItINCONTRE WITH A DESPEILATI GANG OF PO•CHICIS. —About two o'clock on Monday morning last, a murderous rencontrc took place in the township of Walton-le-dale, between three gamekeepers belonging to Walton Hall, the scat of H. Hogliton, Esq., and a gang of four poachers. 'l' he gamekeepers being on the watch to protect the pre serves, were directed by repeated firings to the woods where the pheasants are accustomed to roost, and cattle in sight of four men a short distance from Biding's Farm. The poach ers immediately stood in line, presented their firclocks, and two if not three of the guns went off. One of the keepers, named Dennis Carter, received the contents of one of the pieces in the lower part of his side, having involuntarily turned nearly round as the guns were discharged. All this took place without a single word being uttered by any of the parties. The poachers then retreated, and were pur sued by the two keepers who had escaped unhurt. To ar rest the flight of the marauders, one of the keepers took AIM towards the ground, and hit one of the party on the heel. This man was secured and brought for examination before 'l'. B. Addison, Esq. in the course of Monday. To allow time for further investigation, he was remanded to the House of Correction, and will be brought up again in a few days. The other men are not yet taken. The poacher in custody is named William hiller. He comes from Longridge, where his father was killed by an acci dent in a stone quarry a short time ago. The wounded gamekeeper, we are happy to learn, is recovering.-t-Prestun Ctrs/tic:4.. Customs Great Britain.
