The Earl of DoxouonMoax was called to the Chair, and stated briefly to the meeting theoccasion of their being assembled at this second legal time. Helton' that it was with regret that he had found himself called upon by an imperative tense of duty, to interrupt the progress of the business eeeltrifor a few days ; but that, on the other baud, he &leas stared that the business would be noes effects ally ■nd unobjectionably done by his having made the point on which the former meeting adjourned, that of producing informations on oath, es the only ground and reason of their opinion on the state of any barony. flis Lordship adverted to his former disclaimer of interfering with his opinion on the state of any barony in which he had no connexion iu point of property, and declared his intention not to sign his name to any of the proceedings of the day. It was agreed to proceed accordingly to the order established on the former day, barony by barony, and to go ors with that of Ilia and Offs East, with which, on the former day, the meeting had com menced. And here we do not feel ourselves at all justifi able in detailing at large the arguments pro and con, of the Magistrates who offered their opinions on these peculiar and local deliberations; and, therefore, .trusting that our more anxious readers will see the (Amour necessity of this self-denial, arid give us their approval for it, we shall, fur the greater part, give merely the result of the question on every barony. It was agreed, after some debate, to apply for the baron• of Ma and Offs East, excepting the perishes of Clontoel, Abbey, and Carrick-unsSuir. It was then proposed, for expedition, to consider together the live baronies now under the Pear e Preservation Bill, and to state merely the heads of the informations, handing in the documents themselves to be copied by the Clerk of the Peace. But this was very shortly overruled, and the original mode of proceednig lee iat i m was pre served. In discussing the sitnarion of Clanwilliam, which was the next barony proceeded on, Mr. S. JACOB recurred to the general measure adopted in 1814, s• applying to all the baronies; namely, that of applying to Government for military assistance— or reporting the positions fit for military stations, and the nutnl , er each would require—to be under the direction ul two police constable.. Lord DONOUGHMORE deprecated the expectation, that, if the statute were to be put in force, every thing under it was to be done by the military. In the five baronies already under the Peace Preser vation Bill, where there were Superintending Ma gistretesoind Chief Constables already in existence, the matter, in so opulent a county as this would be easily accomplished, by inertly adding to the num ber of special constables or policemen ; and that then the cost of bringing the disturbed 'baronies to order, as in justice it ought to do, would fall upon themselves. After some discussion, it was agreed to memorial for proclaiming Claimlimas. I& cud Oftd West occupied but s short portion of time, and it was agreed that that barony should be left out of the memorial. It 'u unhesitatingly agreed that application should be made to proclaim the b.rony of Stream'. dagh. In considering the barony of Eliogarty, we are tempted in some tnertimre to deviate from our rule, by introducing ■n ‘bservation of Mr. Lenigast's, when urging the exception of his parish in that barony, which he stated to be in perfect tranquillity. He said, that he thought it also necessary to remit k a very singular circumstance, cal it was for this singularity he remarked jt, which he begged leave to declare he did with the highest respect for the characters he'wus about to allude to, that, from the oldest record or tradition, he could not learn that a clergymau of any religious persuasion had ever re sided in it. . Eliog■ny, it was agreed should be included in the Memorial fur the Insurrectrou Act, with the ex ception of Thuile. parish, the parishes of Drum, Inch, and Ballycalnil (•o much as lies within that barony), and the town lauds of Twomile• Boris. It was agreed not to memorial for the barony of Kiluemunagb. _ _ It nus.adier Prune debate. agreed to include the barony of Middlethird in the memorial. There being no info►mations produced from the barony of Ike-rein; nor any motion made to include it it 'taint the previsions of the Insurrection Act, it passed nib siknilq. On the meeting of Magistrates held on lest week, in Neough, to consider the state of the barony of Upper Ormond and Lower Ormond, and Owury and Arra, it errs agreed to thut a memorial should be forwarded to hate these three baronies pro. claimed. _ _ PRICE OP STOCKS YESTERDAY. 3iter Ct.

BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. ABBOT v. YOUNG. Mr. WAI Las opened the pleadings. The decla. tion stated that the Defendant had promised mar riage to the Plaintiff; that he bad not fulfilled that promise, but had married a Miss Gosney ; and that the Defendant denied ever making such promises, whereupon issue was joined. Mr. Rates addressed the Jury on the port of the Plaintiff. whom he stated to be a young woman of the age of 9.3, who sought to recover compensa tion of damages at their hands for experiencing as actions an injury as she possibly could—on injury accompanied with circumstances of the greatest cruelty and treachery. The Plaintiff was one of a large family, and had the misfortune to lose her fa ther at the age of four years. They live at Brom ley, near Rotherham. There were several other children, who were alike nearly destitute, but were, however, brought up by the mother with the greatest tenderness, and were then sent to service to get their living by honest industry. The Plaintiff also went to place, rtid.lived in two situations before she went to be servant to the Defendant, in both of which situations she conducted herself with out reproach, and to the greatest satisfaction of her employers. The Defendant resided near Wakefield, where he was carrying on a very thriving business. He was about 28 years of age, and a ba chelor at the time the Plaintiff went to superintend his house. There was no great disparity of years in their ages. She was a handsome young woman, mid two young men, in similar circumstances of life to herself, would either of them gludly have had her for his wife. For a considerable time the Plaintiff lived with the Defendant without any thing particu. lar occurring ; at last lie began to shew her more than ordinary atteution ; and when he had made way to her heart, and gained her affectious, he be gan to take unwarrantable liberties with her ; she checked hitt); but on declaring his intentions to be honourable, that he certainly intended to marry her, she was induced to surrender her person to him ; the consequence was that she became pregnant, and was delivered of a female child. He still continued to promise her marriage. As the time of her deli very drew nigh, the Defendant provided lodgings for her at Leeds. His mother remonstrated with him, thisking he was going to marry Plaintiff, when a sharp altercation took place between the mother and son,and he told her the had no business to interfere. The Plaintiff was introduced to her lodgings as Mrs. Jackson, the wife of the Defen dant, who represented nimself as a Mr. Jackson; and said, that he wished the confinement of his wife to be kept secret, because his friends knew nothing of their marriage. Over eeeee of parishes are always pretty sharp in cases of this kind, and so they were here. One of them applied to the person at whose house the Plaintiff was, to know if she had not a yo ur )° , woman about to be confin e d, lodgi ng w ith h er . Th e ; person of course replied, " No, no such thing-1 have a married lady here, who is about to get her bed ; but Mr. Jackson, her husband, will be here to-morrow." Mr. Jackson did go next day to vi sit the young woman, and he went down to the over seer ; the Plaintiff was soon after removed. During the whole of this time there was no wuut of atteu lion on the part of the Defendant ; he continually visited her, declaring his archon fur her. At lest she was delivered of a female child. Ile shewed the greatest love for the irifimt, and ordered it bap tismal name to be Elizabeth, the same as its mother. The eldest sister of the Plaintiff was married to a respectable man of the name of Crowther, and re. sides at Sandal, the same town as the Defendant. She naturally became greatly distressed about her sister's situation, and applied to the Defendant to know what he intended to do. lie flattered her also that he would marry the Plaintiff, in such a man ner that they could not doubt the fulfilment of his promises. Nut lung after this he became acquainted with a young girl of fortune, of the name of Gos ney ; and, within six week*, he completely trans ferred his affections from the Plaintiff to this lady, and married her. " I shall," added the Learned Counsel, " prose to you, Gentlemen, repeated pro mises of marriage. I shall prove also, that there was nothing improper in the conduct of the girl, except towards htmself, and he ought not to cull-lier hard names ; for he was first her seducer, and af terwards her betrayer. She had hitherto lived in the most irreproachable manner, and borne the most exemplary character. I am quite sure. Gentle men, you feel, as I do, fur the situation in which she is ',lunged, and will award her large damages (for he is well able to pay them) for the irreparable injury -inflicted upon her." . _ _ _ The marrisge of the Dr fendant to Eliza Gooney, in July, 1811, was then proved. Emma Abbot, sister to the Plaintiff, and Mrs. Crowther, her eldest sister, swore that the Defend out repeatedly promised them that he would mart their sister. He fetched th e surgeon a t two o ' c l oc k in the morning to attend at the labour, and re mained in the house until it was over; he eousia l my nursed the child, of which he appeared remarkably fond, and which he always acknowledged to be his own. He also frequently called the Plaintiff his wife, bath before her face and behind her back. Mrs. Daniels, with whom 11w Plaintiff lodged at Leeds, under the mane of Mrs. Jackson, also de posed to the tender solicitude the Defendant always evinced towards her; such solicitude as Immune • man towards his wife. Mr. Serjraut HULLOCIL addressed the Jury on the part of the Defendant, remarking on uo letters being produced ; on the incredibility of the eel. deuce of the Plaintiff's sisters, one of whom had sworn ►he ehuld not read, whereas lie should prove she could ; also on she impossibility of Mr. Young's conceiving to be analog. under use name of Jackson ; and entreated the Jury not to mix up the crime of seduction with their verdict. Thomas Iverson, attorney's clerk, was then called, when he swore that Emilia Abbot had read the di rectiebe of a letter of Mr. Young's, in his hearing; but acknowledged that he used "a little ttick.' by misrepresentation, or, in other words, by telling her a lie, to induce her to give him answers to his questions. Mr. Rallis replied to the JOT. If in the onset of this case he hid said he was tutltled to large damages for the incalculable injury sustained by the young woman, he felt stronger fottilieli to a k for still larger damages, when he saw the miserable abortion and wretched attempt to contradict his witnesses, whose deportment in the witness-box was as decent, as decorous, and as satisfactory as any ever beheld in that Court. If no promises of mar riage had been made, he would ask, why were wed ding clothes purchased with the knowledge of the Defendant ? " There," exclaimed the Learned Gentleman, with great vehemence. pointing to the Defendant, sitting behind his Counsel, " there, Gentlemen, he sits, with his hardy face of guile, glorying in his shame, glorying in the seduction of • female; fur lie first seduces her, then betrays her, and then leaves her for the world to point and in , ck a►. Here he is come, and there sits the infamous fellow. I hope his demeanour here will not be forgotten by you in your damage.; but that if lie will come in this audacious manner, you will make him pat for it."—The Learned Counsel then an swered Mr. Serjesnt Hulluck's objection to the evi dence brought forward to support the case. With regard to the assumed name of Jackson ; why, lie believed the Defendant's house at Sandal, near Wakefield, was ten miles from Leeds, and that the population of Leeds was such. that ■ great part of it would have no knowledge of the great and opu lent Mr. Young ; therefore he might with safety u•e a fictitious name. But, hit Learned Friend had said, here were no letters produced; and how, he would ask, could there. when the parties both resided beneath the same roof ? He (the Learned Serjeant) had also said, this was not a case of seduction. No ! he knew the female was not seduced from lit r father's house, and therefore was deprived of that means of action; she was no longer under parent►; cure, but ander the care of her muster, and it was his duty to have protected her: but, instead of this, h e seduced her, and then basely betrayed her. He next came to that hopeful sprig, the attorney's clerk. and surely the Jury would nut countenance his evidence, when he acknowledged that it was by misrepresenta tion that he caused the witness to speak to him.— This sprig was certainly a hopeful practitioner: Oh ! we•sbould see him one day practising either in this Court or the oilier to perfection. It was all a trick the Defendant calling himself Jackson. Promises of marriage were not made at the market cross, but in a domestic manner, therefore in this case there was more than abundant evidence. The Jury would take into their consideration tinder what circumstances the Defendant left the Plaintiff, and then he was quite satisfied that they could do uo other than give her such damages as would, io some measure, compensate for the serious, the severe, and the cruel injury she had sustained. Mr. Justice BAYLEY summed up the evidence; after which the Jury retired for about twelve mi nutes, and on their return into Court, pronounced a verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages 1501. * YOAir 2SSIZE. . _ BERESHIRE ASSIZES. lifitd.l—The nettt day, Monday, I was angling in the afternoon about four o'clock. I obserifed"fs,, men peas. I am sure Smith was on•, mod I hare ha doubt Leonard was the other. Haring herd of the robbery. I determined to watch them. I fol. lowed after them with lily line iu my hand, we. atonally casting it into the water, that they might think I was only changing my phiee of fishing. I watched them to see it they went near the !Alice where I found the things the day before, and they did so. James Banister—l am a grocer at Egham. I went with Andrews on Monday, and found the pa rasol produced in the field, which I carried to Lord Ashbrook. On the night of the same day I went into the road between Egham and Staines, on the seine errand of discovery with others. Abont yen o'clock we went towards a rick of hay *inch was • short distance from the road-side, mitil per ceiving something close under the rick like a lump of hay ; I hit it. It was Leonard. I struck again at another lump, which turned out to be Smith. Upon interrogating them, they denied having any bundle. They said they had come down from ion .ton on the trump. One of our party, Felton, sp in( ed the rick at my desire, and he found tiro clocks wrapped up separately, .and another in his Lord ship's Flushing coat. We• took them to the King's Head, Egham, to search them. Leonard pot his hand in his pocket, and pulled out au orua mmi . 1 said, " Why this belongs to the clock?" Here. plied, " Yes, I will show •ou the way to put it on." We took them to Lord Ashbtook's, who idetit tied the property as his. Neat day Leonard said I. that one of the handkerchiefs which tied up the clocks was his. George Felton corroborated the last aitoesr, and produced the clucks found undcr the rick. Lord Ashbrook said, they were worth at :east 50/. It would co►t 101. to•regild one of them. John Chapman corroborated Banister and Felton. When he took Smith to the King's Head, he aid he had never beta in the neighbourhood before, mod that he had slept at Whitechapel the 'light before. The Prisoners being called upon for their de fence— Leocard said, they came down from London to get employment in putting up booths for the Eg. ham races. TINt having no means of procuring better accommodation, they slept antler a hay-nck; and on Saturday morning, as they were going to wards the race-ground, they found a bundle in a hedge, containing the property then upon the table ; that not knowing to whom they belonged, they con cealed it among some osiers. That us no bills had been distributed, and no reward offered fur the re. cosery of the proprrty, they returned to London, but fearing that the clocks would be spoiled in th e osier beds, they went down again to Egtisni on the Monday to remove them, when they heard of the robbery, and ,fearing that they might be taken up on suspicion, they concealed themselves in the place where they were taken. The other Prisouer can. curred in this statement. The Jury, without hesitation, returotd a veldiet of Guilty. When his Lordship was passing sentence of depth noon them, they again declared they never were in Viscount Ashbrook's house, till they were taken there in custody. Baron GAIROW, in his address to the Grand Jury at the late Worcester Ass•ses, alluding to the case of a young woman charged with the murder of her illegitimate child, sand— “ It was a matter aexultaiion to him that the emwradmiss which had Coetnerly bees resorted to in such casts, to martins the fact whether the child was bona alive (be alluded to the placing of the lungs in water, Led, if they dossed, it being held as a proof that Ike child was born alive), was by the ad. sauce of science exploded ; Robin could be more fallstiouo than each s test, asJ it was a matter of mud, sitisfaciiiss to him, that it was auw universally abandoned." At the last Carlisle Assizes a bill of indictment was preferred before the Grain' Jury swims Messrs.

This is the second prosecution recently brought against the proprie tors of that paper by the Pioble Marquis, iu the former of which he was more succesaful.—(Durhms Chronicle.)

BOBBERY AT LORD ASHBROOK'S. READING. Henry Leonard, aged 23, labourer, and Thomas Smith, 33, carpenter, stood charged with breuking into the mansion of his Lordship, iu the parish of Old Windsor, and stealing thereout a variety of urtii Its. Mr. SHEPHERD detailed the case to the Jury, and then called the following witnesses : Viscount Aslibrouk deposed as follows :—" I bye at Beaumont Lodge. Ou the night of Friday, the 28th of September, 1 was the last person up in my family ; I left the drawing-room a little after twelve ; about half-past ten the dining-room wiudowa were all fast, which was the room broken open ; the next morning, about half-past six o'clock, I was celled by my housemaid, who told me the house had been robbed. I wrist down, and found the shutter broken—(his Lord-hip here exhibited a piece of it]—•rid the window forced open. In looking through the apartments I missed three or-mulu clocks ; the glasses which had covered them were put down upon the rugs ; there were also two large Flushing coats, a blue and a brown one, taken. The women cloth on the drawing-room table had • great number of wax ►pots, dropped from a taper, as I suppose, which had been the night before left in the small library, but which I then found in the drawing-room, from which 1 coil elude that the robbery most have been committed in the night time, fur the spots were Lot wt the table the night before. A parasol was also taken, the one which I now hold in my hat d, which I received from . Mr. Banister. From ap. ma named Barney I received a small pair of aciesats, • pendu lum, and some clock ornaments, which I now pro duce, ■Rd believe them to be my property, stolen the evening in question. On the Tuesday morning I was called up, about two o'clock, by Banister sod others, who had brought the Prisoners in cus tody. When they were brought its, Banister said, sheering the ornaments already produced. ' See, my Lord, I took these from his person' (pointing to one of them) ; to which Prisoner replied, No, you did not, for I gave them to you ; I might have thrown them away, my Lord, bet I did not like to injure your property.' It was then remark ed, that one of them had been seen with my coat on, upon which Leonard, the man who had spoken before, said, Yes, my Lord, I am the very men that had your blue coat on'." Ann Wilson, the housemaid, corroborated the testimony of his Lordship,. Charles Bell—l am toll-keeper at Egham gate. I saw tl►e two prisoners pass 011 the Saturday morn ing after the night of the rubbery, between nine and eleven o'clock. at ■ short distance from my house. They were dressed apparently very much as they are now : one seemed to be all blue. I saw them come back in about half an hour ; one had a bundle on his arm, ■nd the other a large blue coat on, which change of dress made me notice them. On seeing me they got down the bank below the towing-path, on the side of the Thames. I was ou the river then. The way they went was not the straight way. I can't be quite sure, bat I believe the prisoners at the bar to be the same men. The geld to which they weut is live or six hundred yards above my house. William Augustus Barney-1 live at Egboas. On Sunday alter the robbery, I was walking near the lock at Eghuni, •bout a hundred yards from last witness's house, when I picked up ■ pair of highly.poloshed scissors, a pendulum, and some or.. tuttneuts.—[These things were produced, and idea- w-.:.~~^ ree= _ ~~: E.
