ASSENTER—DISsENTER. Every day we hear much talk and dispute of Deist and of Christian, of Unitarian and of 'f rini tarian, of Methodist and Baptist, Protestant, Ca tholic, and Dissenter, but never, or very unfte , . quently, of a larger class or sect among mankind; that the most numerous of all these, and almost Ott 0...4 one that in a long life and ninny travels I have always been able to meet with in Europe, Asia, ,and Africa, alike the numerous, simple, and well.mcaning sect of Assenters. These good people, who have, I believe, in all times and clinics, funned the most numerous class of all religionists, should ,he well-considered ; and it would be well too; iftheir numbers, without persecution , could he greatly reduced, that they really join and truly belong, in spirit, truth, and knowledge of the dogmas, and really join in understanding and sin• cere. belief, some one or more of the numerous religions denominations of which they at present, and in all times past, assenting professors merely, caring little, because knowing nothing of creed or distinction, and yet, by an unaccountable ec centricity, too often the most zealous and obsti nate in maintaining or opposing, or in proscrip tion and deprivatiou of the professors of each vas , riety of ceremony, opinion, and credenee'among men. This error and defect of unreasoning obstinacy and ignorant adherence, has perhaps among no sect since the Christian era been carried so tar, as with.those of the Roman Catholic pontifical per suasiiiii, of which profession (it is for the must part -a misnomer to .call it persugsion), I could never inert with one of any other class titan the Asseotiog tribe, neither knowing much, nor real ly believing any of the hard terms, alio ruse doe trines, and tedious ceremonies proposed to them, but too often and too much assenting, with too much faith and confidence, that at/ out of their tyitn pale, are, as Sir Thomas More quaintly enough expresses it, " worthy to be turned, they and tireir books, and all that hold with them ! !" `phis is surely carrying an assenting faith a little too tar ; rettirn, the Protestants, all their day.ef •aseendattry iu nombils or power, that is, the numerous sect of Assenters among them, who neither know, nor lowlife, nor care, : how much or how little of difiereoce or discrepancy of opi ',lion is in dispute,---have.been ever equally' ready to use the:" ratio coinburendi",.(as'ia St. George's fields in 1784—the. puwerful jersneisiOn of the ftili4Ot and its fire', and, even to this hour, are hardly less zealous to maintain the unfounded pro• position, that.the sincere Catholic, or the simple, thciugh in France, Spain, and Portugal, fit to ,be Et defended in his faith," is not in Britain or in Deland to be "Puste-I," either as priest,• officer, Magistrate, Corporatioo, or earliament Man, , Minister, or Constable, though fit uttil ,worthy enough to be used as,soldier.or sailor, servant or labourer, and to act and drudge in all the lab°. rinott,. dangerous, and struggling conditions of inriety, fit bolted to he used or indulged in any thing but the " loaves. and fishes" of place, privf 114e, corporation, profit, power, or tithe.

This most worthy gentleman, with the circum stances of his barbarous and horrible murder at 1)4 seat in the county of ‘Vexford our readers arc 'already fully acquainted, had, from the parity of, .his principles, been long an object of lawless re ,sentment, though, in the distinguished bionaoitY Of his nature, it bait ever been his study to bene fit the poor of the neighbourhood in which he re sided.

SEE THOMAS CItARLES THOMAS BANBURY AND THE EXECUTORS OF THE EARL OF CADOOAN. The Loan dLIANCELLOR gave judgment in this Appeal, which we reported on Saturday. The . Master of the Rolls matlE a Decree, by which the defendants are liable to defray certain expences incurred by their neglect as Trustees of the late Lord Moutford's Marriage Settlement, to renew the lease of premises held by the Noble Plaintiff's family of the Dean and Chapter of Westminster. His Lordship,. in a - most elaborate judgment, af firmed the Decree ‘vi:ll respect to the liability of the Trustees, and determined the ratio in which Lady Moutford, who, had a vested interest in the house, is to contribute towards the expellee in curred by the 'Trustees. His Lordship is to take further notice of the cause to-morrow. cot,TliT OF KING'S BENcII, Nov. it. DF;VIS V. NEKLE. This was an action against the defendant, to recover damages for a malicious charge of felony exhibited against the plaintiff, without any rea sonable or probable cause. At the trial before Lord Ellenhorough, in the Londoa Sittings after last Trinity Tern), the Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, with 701. damages. The AT'rt,HNLY •Grlittr, AL now moved, on behalf of the defendant, (Or a rule to slim cause why the verdict . should not be set aside, and a new trial granted. He grounded his motion upon a variance between the averment in the 'declaration and the evidence in the cause.. It will lie recollected that the plaintiff had been in the service of the de fendant, as steward, at' his scat in the - enemy of Essex ; and the defendant having conceived. some' erroneous impression of the honesty of his servant, he exhibited' a charge •against him before Mr. Gitford, • the 3laeistrate, of steal ing a diamond pin, souse- silver spoons, end other valuable articles, which he alleged to have been taken out of a writing-desk by the The declaration averred " that the tie= readmit had falsely, maliciously, anti without any reasonable or probable cause whatever, charged the plaintiff with having feloniously stolen a large diamond pin, a silver fork, and a variety of other property of him, .the defendant, in his dwelling, house, and that he had falsely, maliciously, and, without any probable cause, induced anal caused. him, the plaintiff, 'to be apprehended, to he dealt with according to law for the said sup posed offence.." Now the ." said supposed of fence," the Learned Attorney-General observed -was a capital. felony, its having stolen property to the value of 40s. in the -dwelling house ; and in order to , make out theaverinent in the.deelaration so laid it was necessary to produce the.examina tion and disposition of, defendant before the - Magistrate. rSat ~When that • document was produced •it did, not: appear therefrom that say such charge , had been made by the defendant before 'the justice, fur all that the, deposition purportedAo --contain Was the story told by the .defendant.of his having been robbed of certain articles. mentioned, which he had reason to suspect were taken awsy..b.y the plaintiff. The Learned Attorney therefore : submitted, that. al though this was a mere technical objection, yet it was one by which the -edurt would be .bound,, in adhering :to that rule, which, required:the averment condescended upon in the declaration, ,should be made out by exidence...„ln illustration of this doe , trine he telerred to a-case of .Malkin v. TWigg, tried before Mr. Baron Wood -at the Stelford As sizes, where time Learned. Judge had. ruled - this very point. .LOPLELLDNBrIROUGH said it OW not strike him that theobjection was so sound as contended for. It watrclear that the defendant had applied for a warrant to apprehend the plaintiff, - and that b e . made such a statement as ceased the Magistrate to sitspbcc him •to he-guilty of felonious offence. Now, unless the -defendant bad heard the evidence against-the party accused, he could not take upon bitnsclf ttuswcar. that a felony was in fact commit fed. -All:that - be -could swear was that he hadrea ,son to suspect and believe „that the person accused had robbed him, therefore it was not very mate rial,with a view to.thapeeseut question, whether it was one char or another, it, it appeared that he caused.the plaintiff . to. be apprehended (which was the graeamedof the case) upon suspicion of felony. Even thotigh the-charge had not been made in the terms mentioned in the declaration, still the charge was such .as the Magistrate, upon application, would have granted a warrant to ap , prebend the plaintiff. There was, however, no objection to allow the Attorney-General a rule.to strew cause. fie ATTORNST•GENERAL Sala, that the time when this action was commenced, and at this ma» molt, his client was - confined as. a lunatic . in .a mad-house, and therefore there was very little reason to suppose that tile defendant had any malice against the plaintiff. Lord Kt.t.eNuottation.---.lt is. merely a question of strict form and variance, and therefore does not deserve much encouragement in such a case. Mr. Torrvio, who appeared as Counsel for the plaint di, at the trial, said, that the Jury had given very consitterable damages. . . Lord Et.t.aNBOUOOGII- 7 .1 sitinnled up to the Jury for very small _thmittges tinder time circum stances of the case,, , The, ATTonNav-faatggnat., in the situation in which my client, was, 1 wAs y tied neelcnnd heels," and had nothing to do hot to ask tor mercy,---Itule to thew cause:granted. THIS KING V. SIKWILLIAM ADAM. Mr. Serjeant BEsT prayed the judgment of the Court against this defendant, who was convicted at the last Sussex Assizes, before Mr. Justice Bur rough, of an assault in a bathing machine, at Brighton. The Learned Serjeant said, he moved the judgment, at the instance of the defendant himself, in consequence of the prosecutor's At torney having published the trial. The defendant made his appearance on the floor of the Court, but as the Learned Judge's report had not been delivered, the judgment was post poned to a future day. At one o'clock Lord ELLENaottotiou held his first Sitting in Term, but the eaules um chiefly undefended. OLD BAILEY, MONDAY, Nov. 11. John Brown was convicted of picking the pocket of a person unknown of a silk handkerchief. The prisbner was seen in the act of snatching the property by the officer ; and when apprehended, Brown said, " If I had not run, you would not would not have found me out." The handker chief was marked " T. B." but the prosecutor did not come forward. When taken to Clerken well, the prisoner said, " thieving is a very bad trade, I may as well be lagged (transported) as be here." John Collins, a weaver, was indicted for steed int!, on the 19th of October, a piece of printed cotton, the property of Joseph Pearson. The prosecutor was a limen• draper in Birch-street. — The cotton was exposed to sale across a rail at the door, and was from thence taken by the pri soner.-,-Guilty. The COMMON SER./RANT, upon the prosecutor asking for his expences, said, that if tradesmen exposed their goods to the temptation of persons in necessity no.expencps would be allowed to them. Benjamin Johnson was convicted of stealing some wearing apparel, a loaf of bread, and some beef, the property of J. Buckland. It appeared the prisoner had been at the bar several times before, and had spent nearly 20 years of his life in prison. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. MURDEns.—Yesterday two sailors were brought to the Office from Sheerness, arid underwent a private examination before Sir NATHANIEL CO NANT, charged with the wilful murder of the Cap tain' of a schooner sailing from Smyrna to Eng.- land : one of them, it is said, cut his throat, and the other threw his body overboard. The crew consisted of themselves, the Captain, the Mate, another common man, and a boy. The' prisoners nailed the mate into his cabin, and spliced a rope ready to hang him, till he agreed to tell them where the doubloops, which were to a very large amount, were deposited ; and also to steer the vessel where they wished her to go, which was near Malta, Upon these conditions his life was spared ; be, however, contrived to get thetO toxicated, and he ran the schooner intO Gibraltar while they were in a senseless state, and they were made prisoners.

Levy, a young man in the 21st year of his age, apprentice to Mr. Tur ner, silversmith, in St. John-street-road. The prisoner was mild looking, genteel, well-dress ed young man ; he appeared by no means con, cerise(' at the awful situation in which he was placed ;he had an iron on his right IL and. a white handkerchief' tied as a bandage round his head. The crowd was an excessively great, that the outer doors of the Office were 'obliged to be locked up, and Officers stationed to make way for the witne.ssev, as they were called on. The first witness was William Kni;ht, who being sworn, said, I am a watch. skein;; -maker, and live at No. 6, Gee street, Goswell-street, 1 was at the house of Mr. Robert Rowland, the sign of the Litt and Horses, Great Satton‘street, Clerkeowell, on Saturday night, before the fray commenced. About a quar ter before twelve o'clock the prisoner came in ; he appeared rather intoxicated,: and challenged any person in company to play at cards for 51. : cards were procured, and as they were going to play, the landlord came in and took them away: a quarrel afterwards took place between the de ceased and the prisoner, and they agreed to fight I endeavoured to prevent them, but to no pur pose : they went into the street and fought to gether ; several persons were present, bat none interfered. In the first round the deceased fell, and was taised again ; they hail another round, and they both fell, the prisoner being undermost ; the deceased, on getting, up, staggered and fell ; he was cut in the face, and was bleeding pro fusely. The deceased was taken to Mr;TaylOr's, a Surgeon, where he shortly after died. FrOm the evidence of the Surgeon and other witnesses, it appeared that the prisoner in the fall had secretly - stabbed the deceased with a knife. The parties were then bound over to pro- secute, and the prisoner was fully committed for QUEENSQUARF..
