This Deponent saith, he never Saw Mr. Alcock Without wearing glasses, and cannot. set forth whether,the glasses he then-wore were - the same as worn by him in ordinary.

Without his, (Mr. C's) knowing it. Deponent sank, he has been a long , time acquainted with Mr. Alcock, and aISO saitli, that it. always appeared to Deponent, that the 'glasses usually worn by Mr. Al cock were mounted with silver, and glasses of a light colour.; upon this . occasion 'Mr: Alcock Wore glasSes, the mounting of which was of a dark .co !Our, and the glasses appeared tobe of a dark colour also.- Deponent saith, it was mentioned by Henry Colclough, in the presence of the Deponent, to Mr., AleOck, that if.any accident happened to Mr. Col clough, that he (Mr, Alcock).should abide the conse quences, as there, wound be prosecution against, him, In coriseqnence of Mr. Alcock.:s_wearing glasses.

COURT OF KING's BENCLI, ftrtlf 18. ••• COLMAN V. BOLTON'. This wal- an action brought •to recover compensa 'tion in damages, for -an injury ilstaiiied by the -Plaintiff, by reason of the negligence of, the. De fendant's servant. The Plaintiff, in,this case, was a cooper, and the Defendant a coach-owner, who was. in the, habit. of letting out for hire; to the Post-office, some of the 'wicker-carts Used to carry the Mails from the tlif , feTent receiving houses throughout this, metropolis, to the Post-office, in the course of which duty'great expedition is necessary. It appeared in evidence,' that, on the evening of 'the 6th of January, 1 sO6, about six o'clock, the Plaintiff was* returning from Woolwich, 'on horse-; back, going to meet his,wife and family. 'ln pasS-hig through Oxford...street, his horse going at a gentle pace, upon • his proper side of the way, the 'befendant's servant, nAnedDeval,, driving one of those carts, '.stopped for a moment at one of the 'Post-office receiving-houses,' 'at the - corner of Po land-street, while a man threw the. mail-bag into the cart; the driver then set off at full speed-, and, 'while be was adjusting the bag in the cart, his back turned td' his horse, going at a-most rapid pace, he ran ' against the Plaintiff, who had-not time to get out of the way ; he• Was thrown with 'great violence from his horse, 'and had both bones- of his -leg fraelured, in so bad a manner, that he -was. Upwards of 44 weeks 'confined to his room,. unable to . attend to any kind of business. During the whole of. this time he was attended by two eminent Surgeons, Messrs. CheValier and Lucas, the linib being in. so-.bad a • state as to . require their utmost care and attention. •--He was also under the necessity of having nurse-' tenders ; and as he had., before. this.-accident, SuPer-- intended his business in person, he was at . con,idr able expellee in having a man, , properly skilled, to : supply his place. ; Hislalth was also so much im paired, by long confinement, that his Physicians, thought it indispensable to: his recovery that : he should go for some time to the country : he accord-,. ingly. went to St. Alban's and ,afterwards, to Mar-' gate ; which, besides negleating his business, in volved him in• very great expense, and it is still.. doubtful whether he ever will sufficiently recover the use of his leg again. The expence's he had been put to, exclusive of the pain he had suffered, the loss of his business, &c. amounted to _upwards of 1501. Mr. OARROW, for the Defendant, observed, that hiS client was a man' of most respectable and irre proachable character, who was admitted on all hand* to be innocent of this transaction ; and althougb'the' law made him responsible for the act of his servant, and however great the is ,ury sustained, he trusted the Jury would not make their verdict the subject of. oppression against a man wild, as "far as his indivi dual character was concerned, appeared perfectly in nocent.' • Lord ,ELLENBOROUGH having observed upon the necessity of bringing these kind of actions, in order to teach persons that they were not to drive furious ly through such a city,•as this, to'endanger the lives . of his Majesty's subiectS, told , the Jury, they .were not only to take into coniideratjon the money paid by the Plaintiff, but give bins such further sum as might be a reasonable compensation for the. pan, and inconvenience he had undergone. ' Verdict for the Plaintiff--Damages 2001. BROOKS v. HICKS, ESQ. This was an action of assault and battery, to which the Defendant had pleaded the several pleas following-.--.first,• Not Guilty ; then, a plea of justi fication, charging the Plaintiff with first assaulting him, the Defendant; and lastly, that she, the Plain tiff, having improperly intruded herself into his apartment, he gently laid his hands ,on her and turned her out. Mr..PARKE,.in stating the Plaintiff's case, re. 'gretted exceedingly that he should have to complain of a Gentleman, who, like hinaSell, had for many -years-worn the same habit he then:wore (that of a Barrister) ;" and•who, from his profession, should .have known better than to file such pleas as those in this action, which he must have known were totally unfounded. 'lhe Defendant was formerly. 41 . Barrister, and now possessed considerable pro perty in the North of England. He Was a man of robust constitution, and in size athletic,., about 36 years of age, and it was most curious that he should plead that the ,Plaintiff had .first assaulted him, when it appeared she was a 'Weak old Lady, of. about 63 years of age, keeping a lodging-house in Margaret-street, CavendiSh-square. The Defendant lived in her house, in the first fashion, kept two car riages, Src. On the 3d Feb. last the Defendant, being a man of violent passions, sent for Mrs. Brooks, 'in order, it was understood, to complain of . her servant; Mrs. Brooks having,, at the same time, some com plaint. against the Defendant himself for some irre gularities of his during her absence in the country, relative to his introducing a female stranger at certain hours, Into the house, was remonstrating with him upon the impropriety of his conduct, when he. vio lently seized her, turned . her out of the room, and shut the door in her face, accompanying these acts With abusive _language. Her arm in consequence . Was cut, and her gown torn. On the 1 f th of the same month a porter came with a quantity of hams and bacon as a present to the Defendant, who insisted on depositing them, in a• store-room or back-kitchen, of which Mrs. Brooks wished to keep the entire pos session,. and refused to pertnit.the hams, &c. any room there. Upon this Defendant flew into a pas siati, abused her, took her by the shoulder, grazed her cheek with his cane as he raised his arm, and forci bly threw her down upon the stone floor of her' kitchen; whereby she was much ,bruised. These fa&s were proved by Jane Roberts, the' servant of the Plaintiff. • Mr: GARROVV, for the Defendant, considered this inost ridiculous and.: preposterods 'story. -Mrs. Brooks, brawling with resentment, accuses- this Gentleman, who' is a bachelor, of • having a lady to :breakfast with him;_ and then because he wished to' get shut of her vociferous tongue, he turosler our, • and she swears' he assaulted her, He then cajrn4. - Coaier, the Defendant's servant rrin, who could not prove- any thing; and Bush,, the-porter, Who' carried the hams and-bacon ; and :who stated, that-after Mrs. Brooks had opposed by RICHARD HARRIS, Of No. 4, Martlett-court, Bow-street and published by IV 1 t.t.i Ai • A P.I\IIGER SCRIPPS, of S0110•111ol MC .

Lorc 4 LENBOROUGH told the Juty',"that as the first assault stood_ uneontradiaed,. they must find a .v‘:rdi& for the Plaintiff upon . that one; and with respe& to the second, they would consider whether the story of the servant-maid had been at all contra dieted by the evidence of the 'porter. The Jury, after a short conSultiitiOn, ,brought in a .verdiet ' for the Plaintiff upon both assaults---45a -images 301.' COURT OF EXCHEQUER, JUNE THE KING V. JAMES DUNN. This was an information on behalf of our Sove reign Lord the King, against the Defendant and others, for smuggling divers goods, such as lobacco,, pepper, spirits', &c. from a ship called the Heave, off ,the coast of Kent, near Margate. This' ship was • first seen about five MileS from the shore, on the' 29th September, 1806; and two or three days after, about the- same spot ; she was also seen lying-to on the sth of 06tober, nearer.the shore, and. when 'boarded was found quite unladen ; • there•waS' evi dence very ingeniously Made out, of the tobacCo having been lately taken . "out of her, by the smell thereof 'remaining strong under deck ; as also of the pepper and and it seethed, from the appearance of the ballast, that the lading had been but very recently taken 'out. On approa:ching'the vessel, pistols were presented at the Revenue Of ficers, with a menace, that the' brains of the first Man attempting to board her shot:l'd:be blown out ; but the first Witness, the'Mate GrthG-Sharl s Reve nuettitter, 'which made:the Capture, &ltd he Would. encounter the tire of the pistol, - and immediately boarded the Heave: 'NO fire pissed, but some of ~ the'creW 'exultitWcried ont, " we haVejtist dished you, for the goo& are alllandod, l ' which tun - tied out to be the . tattt. :The keen-scented Officers were .not, however, 4iscoi - nfited . by 'Oil's . disappointl,;ent, bin set ab)ut - a diligent search for the' scot on 1,461 - ' whereon the goods were landed, `which they quickly disCoverea; by perdeivingl4 - mark of:the 'launch's keel on the sand, between the marks Of 'high, and low water, and which mark would be'ef-' faced by the tide, if the goods had been lAndedmore .than -a few hours. Capt. Mathews, of the Cntter, .went in one, direailm, while others proceeded in a -- .different dire6tion on shore, to search for 'the goods, : and he found a quantity o f the tobacco and peilpet. On ,tlie following day, the son 'of Durin tqld One of the 'Officers, on hearing the success of the search, that all the dry goods on board the Heave had been found by the Revenue ;Officers, and said he bad iii I his pocket fifty ponnds to: pay-to the Steward of the cutter, if the goods could be obtained clear frorn'the seizure. This declaration, not coming from Dunn himself, did not materially affe& him, as he was not seen personally by any the Officers. The case, on behalf ofthe Crown, being thus fat established, by this , kind of secondary evidence, the Defendant found it expedient to consent to have the cause settled by arbitration. There .were above thirty other Informations tried, without the slightest interest whatsoever, as hi every one of them the. Defendants respet - tively submitted_ to a verdict for the Crown, for given sums-and se curities. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Tviiz 17. This day being the last day of Term, the Court was principally occupied in hearing the arguments of Counsel to their cause in answer to Rules beTore granted ; but scarcely any thing occurred . in that way to excite interest. RARTIIOLOMEW V. CLIFTON. 1 ",7 Mr. Serjeant VAUGH A N appli e d-t o th e Court to make an • order, empoWering 'the - Warden ~,of the Fleet to ref - hove the Defendant (who was in a it46' 'of high mental derangement) front his prison to 'St. Luke's Hospital, or some other fit receptacl 'for persons in his. unhappy state, which- had ,arif:en :froth the embarrassed state of his affairs. In con sequence of the pecuniary difficulties, the Defendant was arrested in November, 1806,and from the ex -cessive anguish of his feelings cti the occasion, he came deranged. In that state lie, was 'sent to the Fleet,.which so aggravated his malady' as to render him completely, fUrious and ungovernable. The Wiirden was therefore under the necessity of chaining him to the floor of the strong room ; wand in conse,. quence of this necessary but severe coercion, the life' of the unfortunate man was in Aanger. The Learn ed Serjeant added, that there Was every reason to believe the obje& of the Plaintiff's Attorney, id con , tinning the Defendant 'in prison, was to torture the compassion of the Defendant'S bail, or of his friends, into a liquidation of the debt. He therefore entreat ed the Court to relieve . the Warden of the Fleet' Prison from performing the disagreeable office of the. keeper of a mad-house; and as the Defendant was now before the Court, in virtue of . an Habeas corpus, lA3 'hoped their Lordships would , order fiim to St: Luke's Hospital, where he would, be id, equally safe_ custody, and be treated with the ten, derness and medical aid necessary to his unhappy situation. , , . Sir JAMES MANSFIELD said,the Court ha d no .ais-._ cretion to order the removal of the Defendant that certainly, it. was necessary for Parliament to Vest some such power in the Warden of the Fleet, under such circumstances, as in this' paint the law Was certainly defeetive. His , Lordship, however, obf. served, that the Defendant did not seem, from hiS present appearance; to be either in that high state of derangement, or danger to his life, which had been represented. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN replied, that, although the unhappy uian appeared tranquil for the present, he was" under_ the strict care of keepers, to prevent him from any ad, of violence in Court. Thee Learned Seijeant, however,. was constrained to withdraw the application, and war the mattcr to rest entirely upon the mercy of the Plaintiff.
