Mr. Lorin, at the sitting of the Court this day, resumed his moment in the support of the pleas entered by the tit:fondant, in jassailication of publothing certain proceedings at Pow•artel. The commencement of the armament appeared in the British .Terits of yesterday. Ile (Mr. laws) would suppose that the jpiannfr was guilty. Ile was tinder the charge still; he war not yet pmace dial, and not yet convicted or acquitted. Suppose him ailed and eonvictcd, whereabeutv then was the injury sustained Crow tits publication ? Mr. Justice Bar tri—ls it no injury to a man to be put upon kb trill with a prejudice nosed imgainst him? Mr. LAW ES—I thank your lordship for the observation. Mr. Justice Ilos• Ev—No; I point this out as the malt of yO.Ol argument. ISo . you mean to go vu far ? 111 r. Irasea--I)istinctly. 1 suppme the plaintiff put upon his itiltistsed convicted; I ask whether any lawyer, whether in this Venn, or in any Court of Law, a lawyer could contend that tet!levier ought not to pass upon that conviction, solely because the 3//orßing Root., had piablisheri ebbs statement of the prnceedinga at kow.street ? If, then, he is found guilty, and sentenced, where. abottta Is the injury niettained from this publication ? Ile next urged that the report wan manifestly i mitigated account of the actual prneertliagm merely setting forth that the accused denied the filigree, that there were alight variations in the evidence of the gni, and another girl of the same age, and that the accused was ad naitted to bail. It had heen admitted on the other aide, that there wee no; a single rise or dictum in favour of a civil action, but all for as meneitient. Ile pioceeded then to point out the many distinc t.* b. , wrens mittl'c and a private rittitin. This was a qtaestten of grist importance to the public. There was a strict analogy between 01%v -dings before Magistrates, and proceedings in this Court. The opinion of Mr. Justice Lawtenee upon the great importance of tot public being fully informed of proceedings in court, of dce, was clear acid forcible. That Learned Jade had re worked that the inconvenience to individuals was nothing compered so tot general and public advantaoes of such publication. lle put the au of handbills published, describing persons suspected of eff:timi. Where was the difference between that and the pre* sent rase ? Ihe whole force of the objection of prejudicing a fair wakapplied to the one as much as to the other. The publication of • *re. bill found in the Old Jtailey world be a libel. according to the new modeling which Mr. Duncan would give to the law. Did any man in this cannery suppose that proceedings to a police. office were a full trial, a conviction, col condeninatiou ? Did any wean take them for any thing else than ex-parte proceedings ? The ilaglatrate committel only for inquiry for trial, and every man canon resd a newspaper knew that. To contend that this was creat lag an undue prejud i ce, was to wonder into the regions of itnagina. non, and to abandon fact, experience, and commie sense. Suppose all the Kim's subjects present—all i have a right to be prevent ; there are spectators, in fact, present. 'Ex argument oa the other side mourned that they meat keep what they bear quite tocret. This was impossible. Therefore the restriction pro. prod nn the press was not only ureitial, but nugatory. A whole temmtull of people may hear the proceedings • but if this case was maintainable. uny one of Coosa spectators, s hould he utters word of what he had hearil in his own family when he went home, was liable to an action ; and if the accused was an attorney, he was sure to be •isiteml by an action. He ronicitiliered, when a bill was brought into Varliameot to prohibit the publication of police re. ports. that it was rej: curd. The loan CIIIET Jr3TICE and Mr. Jitsilte BATLEY ex. pressed a desire to know when the bill was totrmaluced, and what progress it load made. PATTISUX referred to Alikrson's Reports to thew that it was ir. 1710, and that it was dropped in consequence of the opinion of enlightened men, that such publications were productive of many benefits. ilr. Law La resumed.—lt could not,he contended, he fairly said' that the repon of an accusation was scandal; the accusation itself rnieht be at, but the mere report of it was not. It was a auong fry ire in this case that no prevention or prohibition was made to the publication, and indeed it was not asserted that it was tither maturities or mistaken, or that it was unsupported by what teeny took plate at 1:ow-street ; and it was maintained on the other hand, that it was true, correct, and just. in all actions instituted fur slender it was rohnitted that the absence of mattes .was an answer to the action. Unless what is complained ef•te hill male the aetion does not hr. It was so decided in thetas of 1/elannix anul Jens*, which was an action brought by the plaintiff for an advertisement in a newspaper. endeavouring to ascertain whether the pisiteira first wife was living. This inainuated a charer of biaranty against the plaintiff; bit the interest which the defendant had In the inquiry warm an available justitic;.tion For his instituting it, red it appiored that he made it with no improper motive or in ?mum tnartrds the plsintiff. In the case of Moutton and Clap. tan lb; *iiistiticatiun was grounded on the circumstanceof the matter of complitott having been uttered In the course of legal proceedings, 'el:, cases of Iltdson and Sear/ett, and Trotman and Ihmii, to width he begged to refer their Lordships, went to establish the IMMO point. On the same principle, the characters which masters gave their servants were not suliptwvii to be given with malicious intention, anti were necessary for the security of those to whom they might atterwarls apply for employment. The sane imniu aity extended to clergymen for what escaped them in the piing, as was established in Greenwood's ease. The Learned Gentleman, after Javiito, cited several other cases, in which, such as were between roast-is and servants. and clergymen and th eir congregations--tha sibienee ofinallce was deemed a satisfactory answer to the action, contended, that In a ease like the present, where no intention of malice ciliated, and where the parrot. of news was the sole purpose ofpublication,en action would not he. The cases he had cited were, he admitted, only analogous, not precisely similar to the tease now before the consideration of the Court. The greatest advantage ccealted frequently front studi publications ; he did not place reporters ea aro high u grade of respectability and station when he said tiv . , wets public instructors, and had an important lafluence ire society. These were sufficient restrictions already upon time press for all usefal per. poses, and they ought not to be unnecessarily increased. 'Would it be saal that a report of such cases may should go to the s orld as when clismisiods were the result of investigations before Magistrates? lie was sure his hemmed Friend wintlil not maintain Inch n position. Una report should be given where the conduct of all 311 , 11'.11:tial was animadverted upon, he was at a loss to know on what round could theatrical criticisms he justified ; and Were it was not ucees sary to detail minutely the names and action of all the performers, to to :ernisli a copy of the play and music. This had been esta blished is the case of Dibdun v. Swan. In literary weeks, the same principle held good, as was decided in the case of Carr: the ;unification was, that the defendant entertained to malicious - . i -... Mr. Justice BAY LEY.—It was jitstilied on the ground of bring attar critique. Mr. Lsw es assented, and in continustion contentlei, that as theatrical entotainments and literary works were reported:, a similar private le should eatcnd to pollee 'Crate; and that it wts unneces sary that the whole report should in either case befully gii eii, provid. tad the indistinct was fahly given. In the case of Lewis n..ii%Valters, which was an indictment &a conspiracy against an attorney, the g ravamen of the complaint was, that the Counsel's speech was fully Kisco and idstead of giving the evidence as it was dclivered, it was stated generally that it supported the speech. If it was essential that the whole Case should be reported, that would not only be ex. homely itteinivenient and improper. in cases where public decency would lie Aimed, but he would go funkier, anti sac, that it was int r./oil:le, notwithstanding the assistance and facility of short-hand. Vise most expert shart.hand writer could net give every word that was uttered. It was worthy the attention of 104 Lordships, that if they now decided that it was unlawful to publish this report. every accused person who hale been brought up before the Magottates for the last sic y.mrs, and Wheal: cast has been reported, will have a tight of action against the editors of newspapers. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—I believe a great many of t::C1/1 are not in a condition to sue. (A laugh.) Lawns said that, however a great many were. He did not knew, indeed, with what propriety it could be afterwards malts. mined, that the ex-parse publication of criminal proceedings was allowable. and he was apprehensive that his Learned Friends, fif nen , . Bareewail and Cressertli, would be affected by the restyle. tam which such a decision would place upon reporting; generally. It would not only oblige sham to soma tide reports, but would :was vomit others in future trout taking them up. Mr. Josuce !SAY cal was net aware that all the reports alluded to ny the Learned Counsel, contained reflections on prisons. Mr. Lawts resumed, and after having cited a variety of cues in s.ip;eyet of the right of publication, in the absence of malicious in. tatuon and atbe iseecsdic of orly giving the substance of what soak Owe, concluded v tos:rcesing a hope, that their Lordships would not deprive the publit if a privilege which was tolerated by the Legislature—by their Lordships' own Conti theother ;•tib be Court of the country, anal which •ititicient reasons existed Cr withholding from 'mewling' in tether others. Mr. PATTISOK briefly replied. When he said that the whole evidence shouiel be given, he did not mean every word, but the material shitement ; anal dwel. particularly o:a the omission of the evidence of the surgeon in this case, which wits favourable to 1116 client. His beamed Friend had spoken of the advantages of reports of this description. For his part he was at • her to know what the advantage of such reports as that now under consideration was to the public. It was not, in his opinion, a matter of useful infoentation. As to theatrical criticisms, they were defended on quite a different ground. vlr. Justice BATLEY—They were justified be' the occasion. !dlr. PATTISON—There was a similar jurifiection for the criti. noms and reviews of literary works. But reflections on tienona Fusions to trial were of a far more serious nature, as they created a pretidi:c a,:aittst the accused patty, and anticipated proceedings whish should be remelted tee a Court of Jostles. Evert where dec_ mm!' wan the result of au accusation Wore. a Magistrate, he tbgaght it improptr anti unlawful to report it in the newspapers. he - &Ingisirate's OSee was not a public Court, and he would even go 'AJ far as tomb that if persons sought industriously, even by word 41110e:h. to circulate ehaiess which may have been pre ferred against an individv.a les a Magistrates Office, that indivi dual would be entitled to aright of action against such persons. llc would nut say that be OM nut bound to say a word of what he heard there, but the gising it a wide circulation was aetiottable. The mare eatended .C4C11::6:1011 which a newspaper had the mewls and facility of giving, rendered the offence even greater. The Learned (*cattleman proceeded to cenmteut at considerable length on the cases cited by his Leuded Friend (Mr. lames). and con ' tended that none tilde:lu afTetted the argument which lie addressed to the Court yesterday, against the fairness of the report. on account of the material OlUalaialle of evidence farnurable to the pleintilf, mt the absence of soy right in die defeudant to publish anything - oft his charatter. • at rising, did not intimate when it would give '. ,ii LONDON SESSIONS.-WEDNEIDAY, Om 21. This morning these Session a commenced before the Recorder, the laird Mayor, Mr. Sheriff Brown, Aldermen Sir John Paring, Wood, &boil. J. J. Smith, Mr. Sergeant Arabin, &e. fte. After the usual proclamation, &c. had been lead, and the Grand Jury sworn, the Recorder addressed them to the following eltict:— " Gentlemen of the Grand Jury,—You are now called upon to execute one of the most important offices which can be collimated to f*lbjeCts of the realm, vit., to ascertain whether there is 'or Sae sufficient evidence to cause you to vend the prisoner's for trial whose several cam will be submitted to your ronsideration relative to the crimes with which they stand charged. In looking over the calen dir of offences alleged to have been committed in the city . of Lan ', don, I am sorry to observe that the number of prisoners is Large, coesidering the short interval since the termination of the last Ses sions, and it is lamentable to observe, that a very greet number of the prisoners are accused or picking pockets, an offence which has, of late, become exceedicgly prevalent, and calls loudly for the law to be fully put into esecution. Gentlemen, yon of/I - find • charge of mansleughter,bitt there will, no doubt, be also an indictment for the I higher ettmce of murder. This was frequently deemed necessary, inasmuch as it was possible that facts might be elucidated, and W- I ditional evidence affirmed, of which the committing magistrate had no cognizance. (The !recorder then pointed out the legal distinc tions between murder and manslaughter.)--lientlenten, having said thus much, it will be Air you so sty, when you hear the evi deuce, whether there is ground for vou to find the" bill on the capi tal or minor charge. Gentlemen, r also find that the celerities can. tains a charge of the crime of forgery, which will claim most of your consideration. The crime of forgery is iinfortutiately of that trequtot occurrence, that you, Gentlemen, must be aware, that in case of the conviction of the offender, the party is subjected to be handed over to the eemmon executioner. There are, however, vs lima grades and distinctions connected with this crime, which re quire more consideration titan a charge of forging or uttering a forged simple instrument, and which are not of 'etch frequent or citrrence ; for instance, the forgery of a bond or deed, or • power of attnrney. With respect to a deed, supposing it to be erecuted by the teal parties who appear on the fare of 1., if after such exe cution of the deed. any party should alter it, and make it &aliment to what it was when first executed, it is, to all intents and pur poses, • forgery, should the alteration prove to have been unautho rized. So if a letter of attozney appears on the face of it to be ex crete.: by three persons, and it shall appear that only one out of the three excepted it, the person so executing it is guilty of forgery." The lammed Recorder then pointed out several other legal and technical distinctions, which he considered here upon the ease to which be wall directing the attention of Gentlemen of the Grand Jura Ile then alluded to two cases of attempting to pick pocket., which he informal them was only a misdemeanour, and punishable accordingly. After adverting to a charge of perjure. the Recorder stated that as the charge ezhiliittil by the Hank would of necessity require much time and deliberation, he would recommend tits (heard Jury to devote their 'orrice..., in the first instance, to the consideration of bills of a minor importance, in °obi that no delay might arise in the despatch of business, after which they would have more kisser to consider the case to which he had alluded ; he hsd no doubt hut they would ecmsetentiously pedimm their duty as citizens and sobjects, and at the conclusion of it deserve the grati tude of their coontrytnen. M. Lawiin was charged with assnulting W. Parlett, one of the constablca of St. Botolnit, A Idersgate. The prosecutor saw a person of respectable appearance lying in the steer% apparently intoxicated; witness went to his a sseirange, when prisoner threw out his arm, aimed a blow at hill), and seized bin) in an unmanly manner t witness took him into custody, and canveyed him to the Compter. The prisoner was able to walk if he pleased, but when he got part of the way he refused to walk at all. The prisoner cram-examined the witness, who denied that he ever aired to contortions° the matter for lab., or on condition that he (prisoner) would stand a supper; all he said was. that if prisoner wunlit make an apology he would abandon the pro 'mention. The prism:us in his defence said, that he alinuld have been more fortunate had he becti able to employ a gentleman at the bar, but situated as he was he would rely on the humanity of the Court. Ott the day in question he met with a gentleman with whom he had served in the year 1014, and during the Peninsular War. Ile drank freely, and to this he attributed the irregularity with which he was charged. The tonsecutne had been very vindictive towards him. lie had been deprived of liledtv, and was labouring under ill health and pecuniary difficulties, otherwise he would have brought evidence to rebut the charge. The Jury returned a verdict of Got/ht of the common assault, but recommended him to mercy on account of his previous lm pi amnion. The Rccoeoca sentenced him to be further imprisoned for one week. f'harl's Bramwell. a wire-merchant at Paddington, stood in dicted fur assaulting Wm. Walker (a gentleman in the employ of the respectable firm of Severn, King, and Co.) and Mary Ann, his wife. A ewes bill had also been found against Wm. Walker, for an assault on Mr. Bramwell. Mr. Walker was returning with his wife and child from a visit to his brother, when they were met in 'rower-street by the defend-' ant, Breinwell, and a Mr. ishadgate, of the Excise, who hail just left a dinner -parry in the neightmarhnod; and the charge against Mr. Bramwell wan k that W.:peeving. he put his bawd. vary lodes cently open the return of Mrs. Walker, and upon her husband's remonstrating with him for so doing, he struck him a violent blow. Kith respect to the indecent conduct towards the lady, both she ' and her husband swore positively. lann the shape of the proceedings, there being two indictments, Mr. Bramwell was enabled to give his statement also upon oath, and he positively swore that he never intended, or did touch, the lady at all; and that the first commencement of the affray was, his receiving a kick front Mr. Walker, who charged hint at the time with his haying indecently assaulted his wife; that he denied having dace so; that Mr. ll'alker repeated his charge with insult log language, and then, and not till then, did he strike him. Mr. Shatlgate corroborated his friend's statement, declaring that he believed Mr. Bramwell did not touch the lady ut all. If lie had, he thought harm's' have seen it. The Reeoa men put it to the Jury to say, whether they believed it might no: be a misconception on the part of Mr. and M . Walker, in which case he would have been the first wesailant. if, on the other hand, they thnin.fht that Mr. Bramwell had laid his hand in dere tly upon the lady, that was such a provocation as fully justi fied the husband in the kirk lie was alleged to have given. The Jury, after Nome consultation, acquitted Mr. Walker on the indictment against him, and pronounced a verdict of guilty on that against Mr. Bramwell, who was immediately sentenced by the Court to Fay a tiae of till. to the King.

Both indictments were tried together. Simon Wells, the prosecutor, stated, that on the ermingef the 2lth October last, he was sitting quietly and peacefully at Ins door, most tranquilly smoking a pipe, when Mrs. Bonner came out and called the pmsecutor's wife several very significant and disagree able names. Of this utienurteous conduct Simon was beginning to complain, when Mr. Bonner came out and stopped Sitnon's mouth by knocking out his teeth, 'lid knocking him down nt one and the same instant. Poor Simim thought there was an end of the affray and himself, but after a few minutes lie discovered that he was alive, and t h at Mrs. Bonner was down upon him with all her weight and vigour, and that her unceremonious husband was standing by, apparently prepared to renew the exertion of sinew which had ;ust laid him on the paving stone'. Front this disagree. able situation Simon won fancied that he should be relieved by the appearance of his wilie ; but Mrs. Wells no owner essayed to res cue her mate, than Mrs. Bonner flew upon her, and inflicted on her several proofs of the acuteness of her nails.

James Iltmeyman, a young man of respectable appearance and address, was charged, on suspicion of being one ut the gang by whom it is believed the parcel containing between 0,0001. and UAW. the property of the 3laidstone bank, was stolen. (1. Alexander Martin, a clerk in the banking-house of Messrs.

DISGRACEFUL OUTRAGE CT SOLDIERS.—On Tuesday even ing, two soldiers were brought to this office, followed by an im mense crowd of people, who thronged the office doors and avenues, so as to make access difficult, charged with a very gross and un manly outrage that evening, in Wych.street, Drury-lane. The names of the prisoners were A. Ranuay and J. Mitchell, the loaner a private in the 22 Beitakoa, lit Foot Overdo, and the fatter in the 7tit rusileent. They were both in a state of intoxica tion, but not su much so as to seam unconscious of what they were doing. The complainant was an elderly woman, who seemed, inde pendently of the consequences of the violence she had just received, to be In extremely delicate health ; her name is Mary Clarke. and she is the wife of a hair-dresser in Ivy-lane; shc and her daughter carry on business as bonnet.tuakers, at No. 42,1Vych-street. The case wag about to be gone into, when Mr. lIALLs, perceiving that Mrs. Clarke was much agitated, and that the soldiers were hardly in a fit state to be examined, or dered them to be taken to the watchbouse fur the night. Yesterday the Wailers vcre again brought up, when it appeared, ley the evidence of Jirs. Clarke, her daughter, Mr. John Marshall, clerk to a solicitor in King's Anna-yard, Coleman-street.—Lang. field, a %unstable, and other witnesses that about half-past six o'clock on Tuesday evening, the defendant/ and a third soldier were walking down Wyelt-street, arm-in-arm, keeping the wholeof the foot-pavement to themselves, and when they arrived opposite Mrs. Clarke's little shop window, two of them pushed the third against it, and broke a pane of gloss. Mrs. Clarke very nreurally ran out, and telling them that they had broken her window, desired that they would pay her fur it. In stead of doing so, however, they abused her in tenets the most abominable. rime language was described by one witness as being of the viltat and most horribly disgusting kind. They followed her up in the doter, to which she retreated to the apprehension of &me personal violence, and site then said, tremblingly, " Well, geudenttn, if you will not pay for it, go quietly altout your fussiness—pray du." "0, you old b—," said Mitchell, " I'll pig for the window," and instantly he struck her a violent blow en the templa ' which fogad the back part of her head against the watt, aid stunn ed her ; and, even in this state, while she was leaning in a senseless state against the wall, the unmanly fellow re peated the blow more than once, until 'he fell upon the ground. Titc ris,ners were at length with great di ffi culty secured. Mitehell, also had fallen among the broken glass in the shop, and cut hla face slightly, upon ductivering the hurt he had re ceived, sat down in a chair, and cried for souse minutes. The thild soldier cerapFd. Mitchell, in his dereore. said, he believed be broke the window, and was w (ling is pay tor it on the spot, but when he =ached in leis pocket fur his money he found he had been robbed somehow or mike in tie crowd. Ifsitituty saal he bad no share in the matter from beginning to end. &clued, unit Ramsay was duruing the rho 1 time extremely violent, and that lie endeavoured to !twee Mitchell after he was in custody. Mr. 11•Lts said. that this was as gross a cane as he had heard for a long time. Did noldien suppose. that instead of conduct ing themselves like men and like gentlemen (for so it was has pride to ace aoldicrs behave), they were to be 'offered to go about com mitting outrages upon his Itlajesty's peaceable subjects? Hid they imagine that they, who ought peculiarly to be the protect , ra of the defenceless, were to be permitted to use violence like this upon a helpless unoffending woman ? If so, they were mistaken, and the law must teach them better. The worthy Magistrate then ordered them to be taken to prison, and directed the parties to go immediately to the Sessions then sitting, and indict then'. MARIAIOROUGII-sTREET. Yesterday a fellow named Jam;;llurtling was brought before J. CoxatT, Esq. the Magistrate, charged with having been found in the drawing-room of the house of Mr. Harding, a minia ture-painter, in Regent-street, with an intent to commit a robbery. 31r. Ilartling stated, that on Monday afternoon last lie was at tending ton a lady, who W 34 sitting for her portrait, In his back dmwingszoom, when suddenly lie turned his eve. and was astonish ed at seeing the prisoner in the front room, Milking towards a table upon which were lying some miniatures in morocco cues, which he took for jewellery. Witness instantly jumped up and ran into the room, but before lie could enter, prisoner ran down stairs, but was met on the staircase by the maid -servant, who seized hint by the col lar, and detained him till he (witness) tame to her assistance, and a constable was sent for, to whom he was given in charge. The prisoner had In his hand a basket, containing a few lemons and some willow shavings. lie said he had found the door open, and had gone up stairs to offer his !canons for sale. He was commiucd to the House of Correction for six weeks, as a reputed thief. lIATTON-BARDEN. • CIERROZ Or EUDE7.ZLEMENT.-lestertlay, Samuel James was brought up for re-examination, on *charge"( receiving various sums of money, in the name and on account of his employer, Mr. James Borges', wherlwrit ht, of Old.street, St. Luke's. Mr. BUTLER (Mr. Banner's clerk) who appeared for the pro. steurion, stated that the prisoner had formerly hrld the pretenses now oreupied by Sir. Burgess, but in consequence of a heavy se camulation of debt, he went into prison, in order to take the benefit of the Act of Insolvency ; and for a certain consideration he gave Mr. Burgess up his trade and effects, and a warrant of attorney to cover a debt of 841. After prisoner's liberation, Mr. Burg:ss em ployed him merely as foreman, paying him by the piece for what ever work was done. Mr. Burgess was often absent from the con cern, and as it since came out, the prisoner took an opportunity of selling various things, the price of which he never arcoundsl for i bur when, on one occasion, he was questioned by Mr. Burgfts, whether a cart that had been bespoke was in progress, he replied, " Lord bless you. in progress, that it is, aye, and gone home, and paid for." Mr. Burgess than asked him to account for the price of it, but he replied, " I shall do no such thing ; this is my place, and you shall bundle out." Mr. Burgess then went to the person to whom the cart was sold, and he produced James's receipt for the money, which, however, had been by some means mislaid since. .Ir. DurgAs received it front that person. Witness would he called to prove the fact. • Mr. _Asker, of No. 9, Cornwallis-street, stated that he paid James, the prisoner, the price of the cart sent hint front 31r. Bur gess's, and took James's receipt fur the amount. A Solicitor, who attended for the prisoner, contended that he was correct in giving a receipt, and in appropriating the money to his own use, because he was I.llo.fide proprietor of the concern. lle held a lease of the premises, and paid the last quarter's rent thereof. _ The 31agistrate asked if there was any partnersl4 existing be tween them ? Mr. Borges replied in the negative. and observed, that it was impossible the pnsoner could be the losee, because he (Mr. ILI now had the lease in his possession, which he received from James after he came out of prison, in lieu of money he then advanced, and he (Mr. 11.) only employed prisoner to carry on the business as his foreman. _ Three receipts were then put in, to thew that Burgess had paid the rent of the premises, and was therefore virtually the owner. A fourth receipt was exhibited on the part of the prisoner, to prove that the last quarter's rent had been paid in the name of the prisoner James, and that he consequently bad a right to the profits and proceeds of all work manufactured by him. because he did not recognise any title which Burgess assumed to the concern. The Magistrate observed, that this receipt was signed by a dif ferent person from those exhibited by Mr. Burgess. The prisoner accounted for this by saying, that Mr. Redmond, the former landlord, had parted with the property to a 31r. Lodi, from whom he (James) had got the last receipt. The Magistrate observed, that there was so much involution of property and persons, and the case was altogether so obscure, that be could not commit the prisoner on the evidence arldnettl. IVith regard to the lease of the premises, it properly could not belong to either party; it should have been given up to the insolvent's credi tors, together with his other effects, that if there was any benefit derivable therefrom, they might have it. The precise question to determine at present was, whether the prisoner was or was not em ployed as a servant by Mr. Burgess ? and as the Grand Jury were now sitting, it' Mr. Butler thought proper, he might proceed by ind icon t. The prisoner was accordingly discharged, but Mr. Burgess ex pressed his determination to prefer a bill of indictment. Judith O'Curnsell, a true.3lilesian of the old Sock, made a cam. plaint in nearly the following words:—" So, please your Reve. rence, I'm come to tell you nothing but the truth. I'm kilt--rsirs siert, and destrovrd entirely, so I am." Magistrate—S(o , I ask by whom? Complainant—On ! then your Lordship, I'll tell you that as well as I'm able, and that's but badly, Sir; bekays, death and the doctor are pulling ma to pieces, and I'm kilt, as I may say, ters.rt them. _ . Magistrate--You don't seem to be actually killed yet. Complainant--Nu, plane your Lordship, but I'm on my sick bed this very minute. Magistrate—Then you possess a very eatraordinary faculty, to be in bed and before me at the same moment. Complainant —I mane, your Reverence, that I'm fit to be there, through the misketation of this bruit of a woman, and she isn't a woman neither, only a big Nate. Magistrate—What woman? Complainant —Why then, nobody, only Kate Ilarrogan, to be sure, and then it* Is herself, let her duty it if she can. Ilarmgrut then stood forward, and a very formidable per sonage she was, no doubt. A broad muscular front, a hand and arm that would have done honour to a Cribb ; a face bronzed by the effects of gin and weather, with a tine mezzotinted orb, and a few latent marks of tistic contention, gave a tout ensemble, not of a peculiarly delicate character. Slistress Ilarrogan scented fully gifted with the usual woman's weapons, and certainly made a most able defence. Witnesses were called to prove, not the actual killing of the com plainant, but the actual assault committed ; which, however, not being satisfactorily sustained, the Magistrate dismissed the warrant. Complainant—Then I'll go to the other Judge, and if I was to strip every stitch of my clothes off my back and go naked, I'll have justice, and hang her as she deserves. QUEEN-SQUARE. JOCKEY/HIT •1110NOIT BARGE MEN.—Sarnuel Miller at tended this office yesterday, to answer to a complaint made by Giles Milieu, for obstructing hint in unloading his barge, and thereby causing him to lore a day's work. Mr. Millet, barge-toaster, of Fulham, stated, that he had worked his barge up to Dalgleish's wharf, between six and seven o'clock, on Sunday evening; it was heavily laden with sand, and for want of water, laid her in the third birth, intending to remove her at high tide to its proper place, and left her in the care of his sun, expecting to find her unloading the following morning, instead of which, he discovered the defendant's barge intercepted all posai bility of unloading. 11. Millet, jun., said, as soon as his father left him, he went by bit order to Mr. Peto, and requested him to send his carts to eon. vey the sand away ; the carts were to be bent before seven u'elock in the morning; he returned to his barge and remained on hoard all sight The defendant passed into the dock about two ifelock, and moored his craft to the place in which witness intended to have moored his; witness told defendant if lie laid there he would block his day's work; lie understood what was meant, but replied he would. Thera were two other barges which had priority to him, and were, as well as his own, aground. At the time appointed, Mr. Peto's foreman came to measure the sand, and he was obliged to tell him it was unnecessary to send the arts, in consequence of the defendant's obstruction. The defendant, whose countenance b.spoke good hunter -, was impatient to enter into his defence, end at le,gth being pemimed to commence, he said that he came there to speak the truth, and he would do it, too. Mr. Milieu's barge was certainly there first, but It was moored at the entrance of the dock ; he therefore brought his up, and placed her as has been said, and went to bed. In a short time he heard a loud knocking; could net say that was the young man who knocked (pointing to the last wham); but it was very lucky he did get up, for he found his barge shifted, and, had l i e not moved her back again, it was pro Sable she would have split in two. The defendant was proceeding with great rapidity in his relation, suiting the action to the word, when he was stopped by Mr. 14:u IT my friend, ail this is nothing to the purpose- iieleOthrnt-- Please your ‘Voroillp.l 1411 only telling the truth , . - Dir.

Mr. llfillett stepped forward, and state! that he did not wilb to enforce the penalty, as the lighterman, business it was to attend the wintrf, was i.h.ent, cud the peneliy woad fall upon him, notwithstanding he had been frequently serval the same tria to his Sat loss. . • The slatr.istrate said he Wal glad to hear that ; it was but proper the lightennan should suffer for his neglect of duty ; how. ever. he would mitigate the penalty to tar. and costa, which was in. stantly paid.

Mr. Ilan mEll, who attended for the prisoner, req ueit ,d ta i . the case against his client might be postponed for a future ix: minstion.

He then returned to Johanna Foley, and cut off a portion of her left ear, after which he again struck her on the cheek with so much violence, that the blade, which was crooked, broke off from the handle of the penknife, and remained stick. ing in the cheek.
