CARLISLE .ASSIZES. NISI PRIUS COURT. THE SING a. PICKUP. ' This was au indictment found at the Christine , Asezes, at the instance of the Rev. Win. Smith, Vim of Ainstable, spinet the DeTendaut, James Pickup, jrintr and cabinet-maker, of thiseity, and removed titto the King's Bench. the indictment contained two counts : one for assaulting the said Victor in the church, whet, in the execution of his • duty, the other charged a common assault. The Rev. Gentleman stated, that on the 20th December last .he was induced to visit his church, it. consequence of suspecting some depredations were gaiug on against his pew. Knocking at; the door and receiving no answer, he we'd to the chan cel window, and saw two men with their coats off, one inside the pew and the other outside of it, re moving the stone and lime rubbish, which had been put wider the flagging of his seat on the recomnseue dation of the workmen to render it drier; he called on them to desist, and threateued them et!. an action fur wl:at they had already done if they did tiot.Witness demanded admittance into his church three times very audibly, that Laurence, who .was at the gate with a cart load of earth, might hear , eery well. To this demand no attention %yaw paid.: NVitness paced about the church-yard for a core& derable lime. In about twenty minutes or half an hour, Pickup came out with a scuttle; witness turbid him to take tiny of the earth either into the church or church-yard. IVitness went lino the t he.rch and observed the other man, Morley, in his pew in' the chancel ; addressed himself to him, and told him that he, the witness, thought he had said enough to hint before about damaging the pew, and asked what right he had to do so. Morley re. pled, " o—n you, what's that to you ?" Pickup returned, but witness had barred the door upon him with a pets-kmre and • small clasp knife. Pickup got in, seized witness by the collar behind, while Morley had hold of him before, and swore he would knock out his brains with a hammer which he had in his hand. %%rimers cried " Mur der !" repeatedly ; they seemed afraid. and threw horn out of the church door, and then barred it ; Motley struck witness over the lip, and tore some skin off his cheek with his thumb nail. Witness was much injured ; spasms seized bun in various places; he was ill about a fortnight. On his cross-examittation witness stated, that Mr. Ross and witness have a pew on one side of the chancel, and Mrs. Bomber the rest of the chancel; the whole of her family had been buried in the chimed. Does not know that Miss Yeates was buried under his pew ; leave was asked to take it down—wittiers performed the funeral service. Mrs. 'lumber agreed to repair the flagging of the chancel at her own expense, on condition that the old flags were to remain where they were, and the new ones to be laid over them. Does not know that Pickup had agreed to do the work. About six or seven months before that Pickup atid a common bailiff came to demolish hi. pew; meant to take the rub bish from under it. Pickup told hint that Mrs. Bom ber would not pay hint for the job unless the rubbish vas taken out, and sand put in its place. according to the contract. Wttnessdid not wish to have the pew dtmolPhed. Sand is slot so dry as stone and lime rub. bid'. Here the witness was closely questioned re specting the use which he made of the clasp-knife; he totally denied using it offensively against Mor ley ; said that Morley rushed his thumb into' wit vess's mouth with the greatest violence. Read the indictment now trying; if it charged the present Defendant with doing so, which appeared to be the case, it was a mistake. It appeared on further cross-examination, the witness was not on any eccle eastical duty, and the first count in the indictment Wlll ahandoned. Having fastened the church-yard gate to prevent the introduction of the cart with earth, oiniftucted Pickup in getting over it when got:ix out of the chuicloyard, hut did not touch him ; swears it ; asked if he would stick to it ; said h.! would cling to it. There were other ways ont of t:e church-yeid. Did not say to Pickup, when ',het:hutch," Get out you tl—d rascal." Thought they were going to kill him, or would hsve been Sony to have called owt " Murder !" Peter Flemming, the then churchwarden, met Leal enee and Morley together, and Mr. Smith and the Defendant a little behind. Mr. S. had a little blood on his neck handkerchief, slid on his cheek and lip. Mr. Smith said, " Pickup, you threaten ed to knock my brains out with that hammer."— Pickup answered, " If you had not behaved it, so menacing a r 1 would not have done so." Cross-eicninetl—Said he thought the blood was from Smith; did not hear Morley complain. Elizabeth Ann Smith recited a subsequent con versation with Pickup, the tendency of which went to shiuw that Pickup's settling the business with Mr. Smith depended upon a letter he was then expecting front Mrs. Bomber. Witness no relation of the Prosecutor. Joshua Bird said. Pickup *hewed him a letter either from Mrs. Bomber. or her agents, and asked him if he ever saw a letter so full of mischief (the , tendency of this evidence wash) prove that the De lendant acted under theincitement of Mrs. Bomber. to injure the Prosecutor's pew, by putting gravel under the flags). The wittiews went on to say that lie charged Pit kup with using Mr. Smith ill. Pickup said he never struck Smith, " lie only took him by the neck and threw bins to the door like a carting (a boiled grey pea)." For the Defendant appeared William Morley. who gave a very Jitters's' account of the transactions in the church. Swore that the Prosecutor called hint, wilco in the church, " a d—d scoundrel ;",t the Prosecutor seized imn by the cellar; more than once repeated the offetisive words; drew Iris knits on witness, and swore by G-i-d he would stick him; snatched at witness's thumb end bit it to the butte, the blood ruonisig out of the parson's mouth; that Mr. Smith that assaulted Pickup, who came to witnesses assistauce, wod such language as we have before stained our paper with. and that Pickup acted entirely on the defensive; that the prosecutor seized Pickup by the collar when get. ling ov.r the gate. mid pulled him and the wall down together. This last particular was likewise deposed to by Jcsepli Laurence, who was stationed outside with the cart. This wituesa said that Pickup, when 'welted out, called to Morley to open the dour ; Mr. Smith 1110f,e if Morley came there, he 'mutd malign up to the heart; Pickup looked through the key-hole, ank said be has die knife in his hand; witness looked and saw the blade of the knife. The parson and Morley bad a - struggle ; Morley called out, " D—n him, be has bitten my thumb off." Pickup then forced open the door, was assaulted by Mr. Smith in the maw. rier devcribed by Morley ; that there was no striking with either hand• or feet. M►. Justice Putt had at different times inter fered to reconcile the parties. and here it wart agreed to take •erdicts of Not Guilty on this indictment, and on another against Morley ; an indictment against Mr. Smith pending in the other Cuurt to be abandoned. /AWED!. FAULDER. *On this 'cause being called, Mr. Justice PARK ordered females and boys to withdraw. When the 'Court was cleaved. Mr.LITTLICUit.O opened the pleading',from which it appeared, that this was an action brought by Jane Lawson, widow. against Wm. Faulder, to recover a compensation in damages for a breach of promise of marriage. Mr. SCARLETT addressed the Jury with his usual 'effect, and to make out the case which he had "sled called a nephew of the Plaintiff. The witness loves in the house of his grandfather, Cilkerson, a fanner, at Beaumont, in this *county with whom the Plaintiff, who is Mr. kerson's daughter. has resided ever since the death or her husband ; shout a yearend a half after which event, and about three years since, Mr. Faulder began to pay his addresses to her. This witness deposed to frequent promises i•f marriage; all the family expected he was going to marry her. His elan* were frequent at all times; but became less frequent after Martinmas. In 'January last the De (violent married Eleanor Hodgson. The Plaintiff bore o child to Defendant. which is now about three months old. Witness had heard Defendant gay that he would make Jane Lawson s lady of 500/, a-year; believes that he is worth above3oo/. a-year. This witness underwent a very close cross-eza. urination from Mr. RAINR, which we must be ex cused from detailing very particularly ':—Has seen him very often drunk, to be sure; seen him both drunk and sober at Gilkerson's house ; sometimes staid all night—does not know what doing; has seen him there at night, and seen him there in the morning; does not know where he ►lept, perhaps by the tire. This witness positively denied being a witness to • most grossly indecent scene, which it appeared the Learned Gentleman was instnrcted would be proved in evidence. Mrs. Lawson's pregnancy was discovered about Martinmas, and Mr. Faulder still continued his promises of mar. nage. John Gilkerson. brothe► of Plaintiff, has known the Defendant two years, since witness went to farm at Beaumont ; observed Mr. Faulder to pay very much attention to Plaintiff ; he always looked in, like any other neighbour, and grew freer, and went iu on Jane Lawson's account, when he had no other business ; has come to witness's house, and has sent sometimes witness, and sometimes his wife, for her. One time, after his mother knew that her daughter was with child. she was scolding her ; the Defendant said she might make herself easy, he would many her next week. Witness said lie thought it was ppas•. par, it was delayed long enough. Defendant gave witness his hand, and said witness should be at the wedding. Defendant was not drunk; each had had a glass, and nothing more. Witness deposed to different promises of marriage. Defendant, id cons venation with witness and witness's mother, said he had cleared off the encumbrances on his estate, and would marry Jane Lawson, although his mother was dissatisfied ; for if she and his wife did not snit. he would make his mother comfortable in an other house. which he would fit up for her. Cons tinned his visits a few weeks after the Plaintiff was known to be with child. (Both this and the other witness spoke to three facts; the constancy of Plaintiff, her sobriety, and her not inveigling the Defendant into drunkenness. But as the first of these au. not attempted to be negatived, and as the attempt to negative the latter two failed, we shall make the matter shorter by taking no further notice of this part of the evi. deuce.) Tliis witness underwent a close cross.examination by Mr. Serjeant Hut.t.ocs, but nothing material t ra ospi red. William Gilkerson is 23 years of age, is the Plaintiff's brother, and lives in his fuller's house. His sister is 33 years old. The fanners's evidence went to Am the Defendant's attention to the Plain tiff, and frequent p►omi.es of ma►riage, u before given in evidence. Nothing came out in cross examination. The Rev. Richard Burn, Rector of Beaumont, proved the marriage of the Defendant on the 11th January last. Joseph Bell and John Corry were called to prove the annual value of the Defendant's land, of which they did not appear to have any accurate know ledge. Mr. RAIXE addressed the Jury with his usual tobiKty, and laid down a very strong case. Jane Cartier, the wife of Edward Cartier, who keeps a public-house at Beaumont, stated the De &talent's age to be about 30. This witness was called to prove the scene to which we before alluded, at the house of the Plaintiff's father—Defendant being present re well as the Plaintiff, and all the inmates of the family. With some difficulty wit ness was made to speak so as to throw her voice beyond the pretiocis of the present enormous bonnet. and when she b came audible, did nut communicate what was expected from her. Mr. Heine put a leading question, which Mr. Scarlet promptly objecttd to. Witness was then examined to a tranorc:ion which was stated to have occurred between the two parties. at her house, 'Otte nine o'clock in a night of October last. It is sufficient to saw, that the ►tore, as related by this witness, wade for the Plaintiff; and was calculated to excite pity fur her humiliated situation; aud, as related by her husband. it involved the Defendant in as mush infamy as the Plaintiff. Part of Mrs. Cast ors's evidence was as follows:—" Mr. Faultier said to her husband, he would let him ate what situation she (the Plaintiff) was iu ; mud he caused her to stand up. and 'hew that she was with child. He then said that he never intruded to leave her until be had gotten he► into that situation. She (!he Plaintiff) said, yer sea another as river was'." We wow return to the evidence of Edward Cartssyr : lie went to`iramoOsiteroOn'a to imptire for Mr. Fru!der, lamellae last summer ; e girl pointed that he was op stairs. Witness went up Moira, said found him in bed, and Mrs. Lawson standing clove by the bed•ride. . On ins croso.examination, he said he was sober' the might before mentio►►ed ; had been at work all di ,and in the course of the evening had drank u fourth sl►are of five quarts of ale. Inswing a glass of rum or brandy in each quart. Filthier never mile Mrs. Lawson stand up to chew that she was with child. Mr. Justice PARK asked the witness if he was quite sober, and was answered in the affirmativ,. His Lordship vehemently and indignantly repri manded him, and declared that his conduct made him unworthy of credit. To understand this, it mast be explained, that in that part of the exam.- nation of Cornier which we have suppressed, he stated certain expressions of the Defendmit ; and, on inquiry, it appeared that they were used in pee srnce of witness's two daughters end his wife. It was the permitting such language in the Si tuation described, and s-sociating with the man capable of using it, which called forth his Lord ship's animadversions. While we highly applaud his Lordship's intentions, and most silicerrly wish that the correctness of his Lordship's mind and manners were universally extended, it is but justice to poor Canner to say, that we con jectured his Lordship knows little of rural life ; and that we believe Cartier would be quite unable to form any adequate notion of the nature of his offence, and that his Lordship's admonition would be just as incomprehensible to him as a section oat of Reid or Hartley. Thomas Taylor was the next witness: he appear ed a very young man. Lives at Burnthwaite; was at Gilkerson's the Thursday after Martinmas last, and slept there that night, with Wm. Gilkerson. The parts of his evidence which bore upoet the case are these:—The party at Gilkerion's, of which the Defendant was one, had had three quarts of ale, and about a gill of rum. The Defendant wanted some more rum (it appeared he had made Mrs. Lawson a present of two or three gallons)—the Plaintiff would not confess with any more; De fendent said he knew she had another bottle, and sent her up stairs for it. Defendant went after her, and witness saw neither of them again dist night. Worsens went to bed about half an hour after, and got up about five next morning, to pursue his journey, it was quit dark. The way to the room in which he slept lay through another, in which were two beds, in one of which Mrs. Lawson and her daughter, six years of age, slept ; in the other, her two sisters. Before witness got up iu the morning. he laid a short time awake. Wm. Gilkerson amid to him, " There is Faultier there yet, I think." Witness heard Faulder go across the room, and discoursing with the two sisters; heard the voices, but not what they said. The remainder of this evidence, which we shall not de tail, proved very clearly that the Defendant had no objection that witness should conclude that he and the Plaintiff occupied one of the beds. Witness went down stairs, and could not readily find his shoes. Mrs. Lawson struck • light, and cane down stairs with a candle. She appeared to be dressed. She said, " This Faulder is a sad 0ne.... there is no getting shot of him." On his cross-examination, lie said •he told the story to George Bell and another, it day or two after; he never mentioned it to Fruitier. George Bell has frequently been at Gilkersoles. His evidence was not material _ _ After Mr. ScatLerr had replied, in au impas sioned address, Mr. Justice Pau charged the Jury at great length. The Learned Judge said, there could be no doubt that the Plaintiff was entitled to damages : a promise of marriage had been distinctly proved, which the Defendant had put it out of his power to perform, by marrying another woman ; and had not shewu any conduct on the part of the Plaintiff to justify his desertion of her. It had not been at. tempted to criminate her with any other man : and believing all the witnesses. in every instance of culp able behaviour ou her part, the Defendaut was irupli. cated. His Lordship would not be sure, that if ■ man seduced • virtuous woman, under promise of marriage, and so far debauched her sense of moral rectitude, that she abandoned herself over to an other man, ■n action of damages would not lie against het seducer. But. in this case, the Defend ant had to complain only of himself; and not only was he a participator in all the criminalities with which she was charged, but they were all subse. quetit to her pregnancy, a circumstance which threw her more cotupletely into the power of the Defendant. The Learned Gentleman who address ed the Jury ott the part of the Defendant, would in deed have proved " a case more shocking than any book which was ever written," if he had been able to make out, in evidence, • case to the extent of his instructions. The Learned Gentleman was not to blame fur his statement of the disgusting scene which was attempted to be proved, but the proof of which wholly failed r the wife of Canner proved nothing of it ; and if she had prevaricated, and given a statement differing from that which she had made to the Solicitor for the prosecution, why was she not asked if she had .used such words to the Solicitor ? and if she had denied them, then the Solicitor might have been brought forward. This had not been done. Neither did lie blame the Solicitor fur so instructing the Learned Gentleman; he must have had the informatiuu from the Defendsut, who was to have appeared a promi. tient actor in the transaction. and on him let the infamy of bringing forward such au unsupported statement rest. His Loid•hip said. he had come into this county 90 years, besides beiog profession ally engaged in other parts of the kingdom ; but, in all his life, he. lied never before witnessed any thing so disgusting as this trial. His Lordship said that the Jury, iu taking the subject of damage. into cousidrratiuii, were nut to form their estimate by the fortune of the Defendant. but by the injury received by the Plaintiff; and that she had received •q injury, in the disappointment of • comfortable settlenieut in life, was most apparent. They were to make a recompence to the Plaiatiff, not to indict • pumalinitut ou the Defendant. At the same time, it was proper to make a distinction between this ease and that of • young girl of 13 or Id. The present Plaintiff is • widow of 33 years of age, and from her eepetience of the ways of mesa, might be a:- potted to have been more upon her sward dram. on iiiitzperiesiced female, of fewer years. Pia Load ship concluded with racomeserwiing the Jury so give temperate, but sufficient, daramixer. The Jury withdrew, and alter cosieultilag • short time, came into Court with a verdict for the Plain. tiff—Damages 5501. IMPROVEMENT IN THE PRACTICE OP AGRICULTURE. Terri Opel." In the early part of the Fear 1816, • person who assumed the names of William Forbes and Alex ander Grant, snit whose real name is supposed to be William Orson, once well known in Oxford. shire, wrote from Ireland to • gentleman in Lon. don, thin lie had the knowledge of • Chisese im plement of much better power snit economy than our ploughs in common use, and of the practice of China, with u cheap and universal manure, suited to be of great advantage to husbandry. where dung or lime could not be had, or only at great rspeos•-. Ile offered the continuoication of these valuable improvements to the farmers of Engtrod, with a very plausible assurance, and with the evidence of an intimate acquaintance with the general practice ■nd theory of agriculture. This offer was too im portant in be slighted, and every invitation was given to him to impart the knowledge he assumed to possess. He, however. kept himself concealed, and evaded any disclosure of the process lie had pro fessed to be able to impart. This person had pub. lished, in 1812. • treatise, sold by Harding, en the cultivation of wheat on the system of the ap plication of lime. Some knowledge of the processes and results of the agriculture of Hindostan and China, from personal observation, report, mid hooks, amid an attention at that time closely directed to the diffi culties and distress of that period, secured for this pretension a regard in the quarter to which it was proposed which was more justified by the public importance of the matter than by the manner of proceeding of the projector, who had engaged also the attention for some time of a respectable prac. tical cultivator in Wales. The conclusion from these confident, plausible, and mysterious assurances, long repeated. was, that the conceit, whether borrowed from Chinese practice, or imagined by the projector, who bad evidently thought and bitxtured much and long •n his subject, pointed to a new method of tillage, by a light plough, or scarifier of the soil, and by a top-dressing of some material of easy acquisition, and every where present; of course, fire was con cluded to be the agent, and whet, or carbon of clay, or of the common soil, to be the material offered. Some experiment to ascertain this has pro ceeded in Wales, and is now prosecuting. to deter mine in the same manner. whether a similar int. provement of the plough and manure can be offered for mountain land and light soils. The consideration of this pretension led to the further conclusion, that a much more complete opening, s ' ' ig, ■nd pulverization of our stiff roils, was one of the things wanted to enable them to imbibe th• nutrition of fertility which the air and water afford for all the vegetable growths, and which are assisted by light and heat. Every one must have observed, on a large pro portion of the soil of Britain, how well our fanners have merited the homely title, vo generally be stowed on them of " c/ud•hoppers," which they will, perhaps, do well to resign for the future, by suffering their land to return to "dust," as the gardeners do. An attention to artificial irrigation seems also to be desirable, and is possible to • population as dense as ours has become. It is a pleasure to be able now to announce, that all which this concealed and prevaricating projector announced, but did not disclose, and all the con. elusions which reflection on this pretence led to, is at last proved, and produced to the British farmer, after thirteen years of experiment and practice, in a manner which is above the praise of this notice, by Major-General Beano!), who, on a farm of three hundred acres, at Kuowle, Tunbridge Wells, hay, since the year 1813, proved, that by light or shal low ploughing, ou • stiff soil with one horse, with out lime or dung. and without fallow, lie can raise crops of wheat and other grain, at the expense of five pounds an acre, equal or superior to those of his neighbours, obtanied at an expense, in time, and labour of cattle (" lima , labor") of 161. an acre ! General Beatson's report of his practice, experience, and, as it should seem, most valuable discoveries and improvements, does him great honour, and deserves, first, the attention of the agriculturalists, and then their thanks. or some more solid reward. His book mint stand, for prac tical men, in the same tank of merit which Sir Humpbry Davy's always will possess with the sci ent.fic. It may perhaps now be hazarded to predict, that in • few years it will be evident to all, that the soil of Great Britain and Ireland, cultivated with skill and economy, is as capable to supply the grain, and other necessary food, of forty millions of inhabitants, as it has been to feed and support the mime of twenty million.; and can raise this food too in the material elements of space, manure, and the labour of men and cattle, as cheaply as Russia, Poland, Flanders, the Climes, Egypt, or America. It is a consolation. too. for those whose philanthropy is chiefly sensitive for the numerous millions who are to be born in the two next centu ries, that when the population of these islands shall be increased to the whole number which " its soil can curry," on the prescrit scale of consump tion, and with the present habits of diet and of preparation of food. that these cats be improved in economy, and for health, vigour, enjoyment, and longevity. so as to admit of more than . ten addi tional millions to fare well (nut like Aldermen, but like Princes) on this product. I Let us hope that Profesaor Malthus will admit this, and that his new volume will, with his usual ability, afford a consolatory addition to the encour aging views of the excellent tract of Geo. Beeson, whose work must be read, not reviewed here, nod his practice tried on the land, not debated in print. The best mode to pay WM/ natiewel debt, or the easiest to bear soul to liglitee the whitetiew of its aumaity-interest, is to isereose all the growths of the soil, and to raker the eau of their prods& lion. This is real riches, better than fine gold ; and tree eco►►nov, of more power Ann foreign trade, financial contrivances, or brllion payments. When dank shall he no longer required, our land will grow fewer weeds with the gran, ; our corn and vegetables will be sweeter and sounder ►o their qua lity ; the straw will feed cattle, and we may we our good hay fur tea, of which the Chinese do not now furnish us with enefamexth part of what is wanted for the sober refection and s►cial eujoyasent of t h e poorer CllllllOl of ode population. BRUTAL (PUTRAGE. [Prose as Amonken Asper] The following case Ina been recently decided in the City Court at Clarkston, South Carolina : IMPORTANT DECISION. INFERIOR CITY COURT, MARCN 110111011, leto. Mary Lloyd r. Hiotore Hompoey. Declaratio n case. Tried before his Honour IVilliern Driry. ton. Esq. the Recorder. This was a special action on the case for beating a negro woman, the property of the Plaintiff. It appeared in evidence on the trial, that some time in the month of Jime last, wi n k the family of the Plaintiff, who is a respectabl e widow lady, and no oilier children hut danglitos, were at r, and the negro woman in question was attending upon them at the tahlr, the Defend ant rushed violently into the room here they were dining, and without asrigniiig any reason, or entering into any explaoation upon the subject, commenced an outrageous battery uron the servant, by beating and striking her several blows on the head with his fist, knocking her down and kicking her two or three times in the back, swearing at the seine time he would have her ears. The blows she received were so severe as to cause the blood to gush front her ears, and to deprive her of all sensslinta for near ly half an hour. Several of the neighbours, who were either attracted or called particularly to the spot at the time, represented that she was to all ap pearance dead. It was some time before she exhi bited any indication of returning life, sod as a coil. sequence of this brutal violence, she was confined to her bed nearly a fortnight, during which period she was prematurely delivered of a still-born child. The child was fully formed, mid had evidently lost its life from the kicks which the mother bad reveiv ed. It was nearly • month before she was able to return to the duties of her situation in the house. It was for this injury done to the person of her servaut that the Plaintiff brought the present action. The defence set up by the Defendant was three fold :—First, that there was no evidence that the slave in question was the property of the Pliintiff, and therefore she was entitled to no action whatever, it being as to herself damming chigoe injuria ; second, that the negro had been insolent to him, mid that the chastisement she received was no more than she merited ; and third, that the Ytanrtitl was en titled to no more damages than what she had actually suffered in the loss of service of her wench, during the incapacity to perform the usual ditties of her place, and that she could not recover any for the personal injury done to her servant. The RECORDER charged the Jury in favour of the Plaintiff, who, after a few nsiiiiitee consultation. returned • verdict of 500 dollars damages, and costs, that being the full extent of damages recover. able in the Court. We sre gratified to find, that such a brutal and inhuman wretch was so far punished for his barba rity ; but we should have been much better pleased. if the damages had been applied to the comfort and benefit of the poor creature who had been made to sutler the cousequences of such savage abuse.
