FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE, FRENCH PAPERS, (Flom the Gazette de Prance, 'anted July 22.) CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNU might fancy ourselves in profound yeses if we did not know that a firman has been sent to all the Pitches in the Pro vinces, ordering tt levy en masse, from the age of 14 to that of 7 1 3, and which has hitherto been kept a secret in th e capital ; however, it is whispered in the coffee-houses; that the Sultan will take the field in the course of the Kourban Bairam, which has already begult, and that the standard of the Prophet will be he,,sted. It is certain that thiS is expected from the preparations making in the Seraglio. On the other hand, it is thought that the Porte perhaps intends to send Deputies to the Russian head-quarters. Capt. Phillippowitch broug!tt ; on the 19th, the news that Austria would remain neutral in the war between Russia and the Porte, which has made the greatest impression on the latter; as well as a letter, written from Poros, by Admiral de Rigny, to the Minister of the Netherlands, in which he disavows the Dtela ration of Hassan Pacha, Governor of Smyrna, and represents the return of the Ambassadors as pos sible only if the invitation addressed to them should be founded on the principles of the Intervention. The Captain Pacha returned, some days ago, from the entrance of the canal, and seems to have brought to the Porte some bad news from the Black Sea. A Russian squadron has appeared on the coast of Europe. The steam-boat lately purchased was sent in all haste to tow the ships of war; but it seems, that after great efforts, only two of them could be brought into the channel, the others having been taken by the Russians. It is considered as absolutely necessary to rein force the fortresses on the coast; and yesterday 50 cannon were sent by land to Varna. It is believed,. that in these circumstances the Porte will feel the necessity of yielding to the friendly counsels of the European Ministers; and' that it will place itself under the protection of the Treaty of July 6th. It is related that the Dragoman of the Porte has said to the Dragoman of an European Legation, that he had no doubt but that the Porte would consent to every thing if the Ambassadors returned to Constantinople. This language in the mouth of a Turkish Dragoman, who is known to possess great influence in all affairs of the Govern ment, is considered as the forerunner of greater con cessions on the part of the Turkish Government. VIENNA, JUI,Y 12.—1 t is said that Lord Heves bery will take to the Russian Head-quarters a decla ration, according to which England will suspend the execution of the Treaty of the 6th of July till the Emperor shall explain in a precise manner what he means by the guarantees and indemnities which he requires of the Porte—this report gains the more credit, as such a declaration would appear entirely conformable to the interest of all Europe. The publication of an Ordotinance is expected, prescribing the levy of 28,000 men in the hereditary States. FRENCH Forms.—Five per Cents., 106 f., 105 f., 196 f.. 105 E 95c. ; Three per Cents., '72f.

A despatch from Viscount Pescpteira, dated Head Quarters at Braga, 6th July, states, that he had learned that the rebels who were in the Campo do Allivio, on the right bank of the Rio Homem, had left the road leading to Arcos, and seemed to intend to proceed either to Tras-os-Montes by the Portella do Homem, or to enter into Gallicia if they were able. He had, therefore, desired the Count de Lourenco to continue his march to Bascellos, following the right bank of the Rio Hotnem to the bridge of the Prado, and to continue his march to Anhel, till the Viscount should have more informa tion respecting the motions of the enemy ; he had also written to General - Viscount Do Pezo da Re goa, who is nt Povoit de Lanhoro, on the road leading by Car valho d'Este to Tras-os-Montes. Five or six hundred men had surrendered them selves, and the rebels had abandoned ten or twelve pieces of artillery, after spiking them ; probably the whole of the train with which they left Oporto.— Several deserters have presented themselves to the Viscount, and others were taken prisoners, and sent to Oporto. The rebels seem to be returning to Tras-os-Mon tes. A despatch from the Viscount ,Pezo da Regoa, dated Povoa de Lanhoro, July 7, gives an account of the pursuit of the rebels, awl of the - measures he had taken to prevent their entering Tras-os-Montes. Generals D'Alvaro da Costa and Viscount de Santa Martha had informed the General, in a despatch dated the 6th, that the rebels had been attacked by the troops under their command. The enemy com menced the action at seven in the morning, which lasted till three in the afternoon, when the rebels were dislodged from all their positions, from Val deste to half a league beyond St. Joao do Campo, leaving behind four cannon and one howitzer, the remains of their artillery, they having left six guns and one howitzer, with baggage, ammunition, r &c., at the bridge of the Prado. They disbanded by hundreds, and those and the prisoners amount to above six hundred. Tke rebels were not pursued any further, the troops being exhausted by forced marches, and having had nothing to eat for 24 hours, the rebels destroying every thing in their way. it seems that the rebels must certainly enter Gallicia, as St. Joao do Campo is only a league from the ex treme frontier. The two Generals above tanned re tired towards Bouro, to give the troops some repose, and supply them with provisions.—" I have this mo ment," says the General, " received advice from General the Viscount de Santa Martha, informing me that the rebels were on the frontiers of Gallicia at nine in the morning, and that it was said the Spa nish Authorities had refused to let them enter. I have therefore suspended my march to Montealegre, to observe their motions, doubting whether they will return by the road they went, or upon Villa da Veiga, by the road of Gerez ; and I have ordered the above Generals to occupy, as soon as possible, the pass of Covide, being the most important posi tion on the mountain." The Correio do P . OHO of the 7th an d B t h says , that the rebels fled in great confusion,and plundered wherever they came ; that the soldiers of the (ith and 18th regiments had fought , the - second, accusi ng th e former of being the cause of their misfortunes; that inimy men of these regiment; had come and sun. rendered ; the number of them up to the 76 amounting to abovo 1,000 soldiers, inclUding soon horsemen_ , - .gip c.

We have received the following letter this morning 'from our own Correspondent, which gives a somewhat alarming account as to the Crops in the North : NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, JULY 22. Since the setting iu of the New Moon, on the 12th instant , the yeather in this district has been extremely wet, but it was not apprehended that much damage had been sustained by the crops of Corn up to Sunday last. In the course of that night, however, the rain began to fall so heavily, and has continued to do so ever since, with hardly any intermission, that the greatest alarm is excited. Opinion, however, varies as to the acteal extent of injury already done; but if (which present ap pearances, and the low state of the barometer rather indicate) the same rainy weather 'should continue, the consequences cannot fail to be highly disastrous. There was great anxiety in our Corn Market to-day to buy wheat, at an advance of from five to six shillings rer quarter since this day se'nnight ; and many were unwilling-to sell at that currency. A letter by the last post from Dantzic (by no means uninteresting at the present moment), under date of the .sth inst,, says—" In consequence of the impolitic arid absurd Corn Laws of the British Parliament, the cultivation of grain of every de scription net only becomes less from year to year throughout Poland, but the Corn produced is abso lutely greatly inferior in quality to what it used to be. Like every thing else, agriculture, if it do not advarice, is sure to retrograde. It is true, we have a few thousand lasts of wheat here, but a great part of it is defective both in weight and colour, arid would by no means suit the'English market. Should there be a bad crop on your side; God knows whence the deficiency will be procured; for, from this quarter; succour is wholly out of the question, were the prices ever so high. There was a time when- a million of quarters could always be had, but that day is gone by, apparently never to return. Should an adverse .season prevail, you will find verified all that Mr. Edward Solly stated to the Committee of Parliament, and that, too, to the fullest extent." The City Authorities are widening the foot pavement on each side of Lombard-street; an improve ment which has long been ,wanted in that crowded thoroughfare. CORN RETURNS.—We understand that the Inspector of Corn Returns for Edinburgh has received from WILLIAM JACOB; Esq. of London, a large supply of blank weekly reports, and that immediate application will be made to the proper authorities, in order to obtain more regular weekly returns ,of the sales of all kinds of grain bought by the dealers.—Edinburgh Evening Post. SAILING OF SIR CHARLES PAGET—RE vivm, -Or THE LORD HIGH ADMIRAL'S VISIT TO TH.S HARnOUR.-This morning Sir CHARLES PAGET shifted his flag os board the beautiful new corvette, the Pearl, of 20 guns, and was to proceed this day on a cruise, accom panied by the Orestes and Pylades sloops of war, in order to meet the Britannia and Prince Regent, of 120 each, when his flag will be removed to the Britannia, It is said that the cruise will continue for some days, in order to ascertain the sailing of these ships, and that the fleet will return into this harbour. In the course of yesterday it was confidently stated at Cove, that the LORD HIGH ADMIRAL was also to join the squadron in the Royal George yacht, and would, most probably, honour Sir C. PA GET by a short visit at the Admiralty House.— Corh Mercantile Chron. IRON TRADE.—The iron trade continues in a very depressed state ; and there appears at present very little chance of improvement. The demand is very small, and nothing but the cessation of making on the part of some of the more considerable works, can prevent another re duction in price. In Wales there are considerable stocks on hand, which will continue to increase ; for the demand, both for real consumption and for speculation, rather abates than increases. The trade appears now rapidly tending to that state of extreme depression which the most ordinary foresight might have anticipated as consequent on the very high prices of 1824. Trara-plates of the best grey iron have, we are credibly informed, been recently sold at the low price of 41. 9s. per ton, delivered, and on the usual credit. This, we understand, is a lower price than the sane article has ever yet been sold for, at the period of any former depression of the iron trade.-- . -Hereford Journal. Basardjik, which in all probability will be the next point of destination of the Russian army, and where they expect to meet the divisions detached b y the Gover nors of Silistria and of Shumla, is a place of some com mercial importance, and one of the principal cities of 'tumuli:l. It is situated on the river Marina, the an cient Hebrus, and thus its position, as well as the neighbouring forests, will present some advantages for the defence of the place. If it were once in the pns session of the Russians, it is believed that little diffi culty would be found in advancing to Varna, which is a place of Brent importance, and which in former wars used to he considered as one of the keys of Con stantinople. It has an excellent harbour, and supplies the capital with provisions. The place derives its strength from its position, rather than from any con -siderable fortifications. The inhabitants, of whom there are stated to be about 16,000, are Turks, Greeks, and Armenians. A Greek Metropolitan used to reside in the city. Of the numerous battles which have been fought in the neighbourhood of this place, the most remarkable was that in 1444, in which VLADISLAS, King of Poland and Hungary, was defeated by Sultan Mintan 11. and lost his life. Mangala, in Silistria, one of the places which the last bulletin states to have been taken by the Russians, is rifle 1 Tomiswar in Tui kish, and is generally considered to be the identical Tomi, in which the unfortunate Roman poet was doomed to spend the re mainder of his days, among a horde of barbarians. In the village of Gutschun, which is also reported to have been taken, peace was concluded between Russia and the Porte in 1774. • • The following notice of Lord AMHERST S embarkation. at Calcutta appeals in an evening edition of the Calcutta John Bull of March 8 : Calcutta, March S, 1828.

THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 24, 1828. Brussels Papers of the 23d instant have been received this morning, and their contents are far more important than usual. In the first place they contain an extract of . a letter from Admiral HEYDEN, touching the late affair at Smyrna, and the alarm of the DACHA that the Russian squadron would attack the town, and destroy the property of the unoffending inhabitants. The Admiral's assurances on this subject do honour to the moderate 'policy of Russia in the Mediterranean, but this moderation is exacted from her by necessity—not from choice ; for what could the Russian fleet do against the combined strength of those of France and Eng land, were it to pursue a line of offensive opera tions, independent of them, against the commerce of the Mediterranean ? We have no doubt that this is the secret of Russian moderation on the high seas. The Admiral, therefore, takes credit to his Government for an excess of moderation . which. no nation at war with another would ever observe, but for very weighty reasons—and the war between Russia and Turkey is founded as much upon national antipathies on the one hand as ambition on the other—both of them suffici ently strong motives for proceeding to the last extremity. But Smyrna is safe for the present —till the Russians have taken Constantinople. When that grand object of their ambition is once effected, England and France will have ample cause to lament the presence of a Russian fleet in the Mediterranean. It is now said that COLOCOTRONI, and 25 of his accomplices, have been arrested for being concerned in a conspiracy against Count CAPO DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

A letter from Vienna, received by Express at Frankfort, states, on the authority of the Gene ral commanding in Sclavonia, that Bosnia is in full revolt against the Porte. The ringleaders had seized on the Citadel of Sarajewo, arrested and imprisoned the VIZIER, and even inter cepted the Courier who was carrying the news of the revolt to Constantinople. This event it was expected would induce the Servians to rise and display their ill-concealed hostility to the . Turks:— BERLIN, JULY 16. The Courier de Smyrne contains the following article : Extract of a letter from Admiral Ileyden to M. Jacob Van Letinep, Consul-General of the Netherlands. " Poaos, Jura 5, 1828.—1 have been informed that the Pacha of Smyrna is afraid that the ships of war under my command may come and alarm his city under a foreign flag. I lime no time in informing you, Sir, that my august master does not desire to extend the evils of war, or permit any harm to be done to peaceable inhabitants of the Otto.. man towns and villages. That his Majesty does not even desire to impede the commerce of neutral Powers, as far as blockades recognized by treaties do net prevent it ; and that, consequently, the Pacha has nothing to fear from such a visit from the ships of war under my contmand. " What could we do among you ? Burn, or plunder and injure the European population of Smyrna, without object, and without any real advantage to our cause or that of our Allies. ' 6 I therefiae request and authorise you, Sir, to dispel any alarms that may be entertained on this subject. " L. DE HEYDEN." To this letter is annexed the copy of a circular from the Russian Government to its Representatives at the Courts of the maritime Powers of Europe, dated 29th April, which states that Count fleyden has orders to respect on all occasions the rights of neutral Powers, according to the conventions concluded between Russia and Great Britain. SMYRNA, JUNE 18. It is affirmed that Count Capo d'lstria will be obliged to have recourse to more energetic measures to govern the Greek nation, especially since the discovery of the con spiracy of Colocotroni, who has been arrested, with twenty five of his :accomplices. The President while be was at Poros, gave a formal audience to the Greek Bishops, sent by the Sultan to propose an amnesty, and dismissed them with an admonition to leave the Greek territory, because their addresses, in which they call upon the people to return to their obedience to the Porte, cannot be tolerated by the Greek Government. FRANKFORT, JULY 18. Extract of a letter from Vienna, received by Express:— The General commanding in Sclavonia, in a letter, dated 4th of this month, says, " That Bosnia is in full revolt. against the Porte. The ringleaders have seized on the citadel Sarajewo, have arrested and imprisoned the Vizier, intercepted the courier who was to carry the news to Con stantinople, and, in concert with one Hassan Peehi, who formerly excited troubles in the country, have a kind of independent Government. " This event, which is in itself unfortunate, may have a bad effect on the tranquillity of Servia, for Abdurahman Pacha, Vizier of Bosnia, and formerly Governor of Salo niehi, and afterwards of Belgrade, was the man whom the Ser►ians most dreaded." BRUSSELS, JULY 19. In the course of September there will be a camp at Zeist, under the command of Prince Fiederick. News from Batavia to the Sth March has been received by the Henriette and Henry. The Journal contains nothing respecting the internal situation of the island. JULY '21.-An Austrian Cabinet Messenger pas'ed :hrough here last nig-ht from Vienna to London. According to accounts' from Vienna of the 2th inst:it Was generaliv reported there that the imperial army would be augmented : that the Ya ger battalions would - be strengthened by the third division, that the cavalry would have an addition of 25 per squadron, and that even the infantry would be increased. All this arises from the natural jealousy entertai►►ed at the ambitious progress of the Russian army. Not only Aus tria, England, and France, but even Prussia, begin to detect the wolf in sheep's clothing. — Russia professes meekness and moderation, while she pursues and even grasps the object of her secret ambition. Metalliques, 94 ; Bank Sbaree, 1,081. Private letters from Laon are very gloomy, and state that the future situation of Portugal entirely depends on the conduct which will be Powers, as it is supposed pursued by Foreign that Don PEDRO will demand the Treaties with them to be put into execution ; they also date that the sincerity of Spain is much doubted, as a large Spanish force is assembling on the fron tiers. lids entirely accords with our informa tion, that FERDINAND is extremely solicitous for the recognition of MIGUEL by this country. The news from the East of Europe, in the French Papers, realises in a great measure our own views of Turkish politics, and the effects likely to result from the operations of the Rus sian squadron, under Admiral GREIG, On the European Coast of the Black Sea. The firs t movements of this squadron, it would now ap pear, have been the capture of some Turkish vessels of war, and the cause of general conster nation at Constantinople for the safety of its for tresses along the coast to Varna. Indeed, it is said that 50 pieces of cannon have been sent by land to strengthen that important post. If this be true, it serves to show that the PORTE was not prepared for an attack on that line of defence, far less for the march of the Russian army on its approach to the capital. The general impression now seems to be, that the PORTE will submit to the Convention of the 6th of Jut•, and place itself under the protection of England and France. It has no ether hope of escape from the rapacity of Russia. Under the Spirit of the Public Journals we have given the advocates for, and the turn-coats against, the principles of Free Trade, insomuch as the Silk question is concerned, in the packed meeting of yesterday, which did not repre sent the great and respectable body of the Silk Trade, but the petty interests of some isolated individuals. That these indi viduals may be very respectable in their particu lar circle we do not at all deny, but that they and their representations are to form the data upon which the blank mind of Mr. COURTENAY is to upset the principles of free trade, is a matter too contemptible for serious comment. It is, however, lamentable to see such an unblushing dereliction of public principle exhibited by that portion, indeed, we may say the whole of the Tory Press, with respect to that free trade which they, one and all, were the first to advocate, while their political idol—the man in power—sanctioned or advocated the introduction of that system. But these hirelings have no honest character—they have no polar star of rectitude to guide' their uncertain destination—they are entirely at the mercy of the tide of corrupt influence, and sail wherever interest directs. Yet these hire lings, from the mock official Evening Gazette, to its turncoat morning echo, and other wandering vehicles of slander, set themselves up as the pat terns of decency, good faith, and consistency ! They are the bitter enemies of the system of free trade—some of whom were but lately its most vociferous panegyrists. But now that the " Tories" are in (for the last time, we trust,) they are at a loss how best to display their excess of subserviency by denouncing those very principles which they formerly so strenuously advocated. However, we can pity their rage, and forgive their inconsist ency, seeing that if they did not do as they were bid, the poor people would starve. On that score alone we are disposed to be charitable, for, they say, they must live, and that the Go vernment cannot do without them. We can also excuse their vengeance, great in proportion to their servility, against the system of free trade—because its astonishing success be lies their prophecies, and confounds their judg ments. Poor hirelings !it is not summer with them, even in the dog days, if the Minister frowns—they know that the principles of free trade are beyond the comprehension of Slaves, and they prudently' consult their own in terests by serving those of their masters. Sydney Gazelles to the Bth March, and Ho bart Town Couriers to Feb. 17, have been re ceived by the Orelia, Captain HUDSON, at the North and South American Coffee-house, but their contents are unimportant. The Standard, that worthy representative of a worthy Government, exults with becoming charity at the fact, which it is the first to an nounce, that " his Majesty's Government has de termined to put in action the whole strength of the Law to put down the Lay and Ecclesiastical incendiaries who are now goading the miser able peasantry of Ireland to rebellion and systematic assassination, and that if the pre sent laws shall not be found strong enough, n ew laws will be demanded, and no doubt obtained, from Parliament, to effect this vital object." Upon this precious announce ment we make no comment at present, but simply as k the Duke of WELLINGTON if he dare ha zard his Ministry and the safety of Ireland, by putting such a .savage scheme in execution The Standard advises it—let him try his fortune, but forget the field of Waterloo.

TILE WEATHER—THE FLOODS.—As we anticipated in our last number, the accounts received from all parts of the counties of York and Lincoln afford a me lancholy detail of calamity, arising from the immense quantity of rain that fell during Friday, the 11th instant, and subsequent days. The York, Leeds, Sheffield, Don caster, and Lincolnshire papers, report inundations in their several vicinities of a most extensive character. The in jury to the hay crops is incalculable. It is said that in Holderness, in the vicinity of the river Hull, at least 100,000 acres are, or have been, under water. We re gret to say, that since our last the weather has not been of so settled a character as to relieve ns from our fears for the future. On Friday last, at about four in the afternoon, a severe 'term of thunder, accompanied by a heavy de scent of rain, though not of long duration, visited this neighbourhood. On Saturday, at one o'clock r.ar., we experienced a similar visitation ; and on Sunday evening the rain set in heavily, and continued falling the whole of the night. In addition to the particulars contained in our last we have 'received the following :—At !lesion most of the low lands round the town present one con tinued sheet of water, which has risen to such a height that large cocks of hay are completely flooded, and the tops of them were not perceptible for many iitritrir. -.- 'The banks on the Lincolnshire side of the Trent, in Lea Marshes, have given way, and at this time there is not less than ten feet of water out. At Yarm, we are informed, boats actually plied in the town streets, removing the in habitants and their property, and had it been practicable for a strata boat to have ascended past Stockbridge, our informant states, it might have been m atter of record that a vessel of that description made a trip into the wofhia,:sttihilogugthlie somewhat d ha o t f market placti, for the but tani when —et the the mail coach across with the bag'.

Mr. SuGDEN wished to know when it w)uld be convenient for the Court to hear this case, His LORDSHIP observed, that he had beenlooking into the papers, and found it likely to occupy a con siderable time. If he were correct in that, it would be very inconvenient to him at. this season. Mr. SUGDEN was exceedingly sorry to heir this, as in consequence of what his Lordship had bummed on a former occasion of his 'willingness to hear the cause, he had been devoting a great many hums in acquainting himself with arguments which he should have otherwise employed had he entertained the least suspicion of its not getting heard now.. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL observed, that asit was a most important case, the doctrine of partial insanity would have to be fully argued, and the arguments could not occupy less than three days. His LORDSHIP, after some further interlocutory conversation, appointed Saturday for the opening of the case. VIDLER V. PARRETT. Mr. TRESLOVE applied for leave to have this case put at the head of the paper en an early day, that the Master's report might be, confirmed, approving of a settlement' upon the marriage of a ward. BURCHETT V. WOOLVARD. Mr. lionsE said, that this was a rase in which the parties had been ordered to appear upon a notice of motion to commit, in consequence of the marriage of a ward without permission of the Court or guar dians. Mr. SUGDEN expressed himself ready to make the motion ; but, as the discussion would affect the cha racter of the young man, he thought it would be better to have the case heard in private. Mr. HORNE concurred in this suggestion; and His LORDSHIP said he should retire into his room to hear it, after he had disposed of one or two part heard matters that stood for this morning. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. SCOLEFIELD V. WILDE. In this case an injunction had been granted ex parte to restrain the defendant from invading a patent obtained by Jonathan Scolefield,fer the ma nufacture of a cloth called the " British Cashmere Cloth." Mr. SeGDEN moved to-day that the injunction should be dissolved, and was proceeding to read the specification which bad been enrolled by the plaintiff upon obtaining the patent, when Mr. BICKERSTETH, who appeared for the plain tiff, admitted that the injunction could not be sus tained upon the affidavits now on the file. He must, therefore, submit to the injunction being dis solved, and his client would have to protect himself in another way. The injunction was accordingly dissolved with costs. LEWIS V. LORD DE LA ZOUCH. The motion in this case to restrain the defendant from receiving the rents of certain •estates in Susses, as well as the argument upon the demurrer to the plaintiff's bill, were fixed for to-morrow. ASSIZES.-(RECEIVED THIS DAY.) MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—NORTHAMPTON, JuLv scnnerross•--STANTON V. .TERTJS. Mr. Goosistiest opened the pleadings. Mr. Sergeant Anasts stated the case.--Gentlemen ( 4 the Jury, the plaintiff in this action, Mr. Richard Stanton, seeks to recover at your hands a compensatiOn in damages for au injury of the most serious kind, inflicted upon ho sister. The parties are both farmers ; the brother of the unfortunate young woman, the plaintiff in this action, is s single man, a tenant of his Grace the Duke of Dorset, re. siding at a place called Slipton, in this county ; he is g young man between thirty and forty years of age ; he i 5 about the same age with the defendant, who is also a single man, and a neighbouring farmer, residing within the dis tance of a mile from the residence of the plaintiff, and his companion and friend. About three years since, Miss Stanton came to reside with her brother, to take care of his house, where the defendant visited constantly. Gentle men, the defendant paid particular attention to Miss Stan tbslltliteetestuesfrilienros having ge tm.o u n t e a ti t iit t ni e ot r i ton, and gave her every reason to believe that he intended an honourable address ; but with the artfulness that he hsg neds:dlifetoorneayvoecuro,nsdoseidmluedia.adebdeleia)ydttiiihrnecteeatuotpeff:on, as to entitle her to sue for a breach of promise of marriage. tion he paid her, and under declarations he made, in an unguarded moment he effected her ruin. When this was done she was sorry for it, and refused to have any' further connection with him ; when with a species o f un manliness, which denotes the character of this defendant, he threatened, if she broke off the intercourse, he would expose her, and tell the world the act she had committed with him. A child was the consequence of this intimacy, and she comes this day to seek of you that compensation which you will think a woman so injured deserves. This is the outline of the case; I know there are some topics that will be urged by my Learned Friend in defence, which I anticipate, and there seldom has been a ease of this kind, where persons ate in the rank of life that the plaintiff and defendant are, where there has not been the fact of the parties Bitting up together in the house at n i g ht. It is a custom which certainly, if it took place in a higher rank of life, would materially diminish the damages. But I know that part of the Jury whom I am speaking to, they are of a higher class of life, and I am sure will feel and know the different distinctions and customs that exist among farmers, and that that which is the custom and habit, however imprudent it may be in the class of life to which these patties belong, they will not visit as being indicative of impropriety on the part of the person who is the subject of it. Gentlemen, I am not aware of any other subject which can form a part of the defence, e xcept it may be said that the young w oman i s no t o f what my friend may call tender years, she being, I be lieve, of the age of thirty. She appears to have conducted herself in every respect with the most perfect propriety, till her acquaintance with the defendant, when this unfor tunate connection took place. Miss Elizabeth Stanton examined—ls sister to Richard Stanton, the plaintiff, who is a farmer, residing at Slipton, in this county; her father and mother are dead; went to live with her bristlier as his housekeeper four or five years ago ; she became acquainted with the defendant soon after the came to Slipton; he visited her brother. A connec tion took place between them about a year and a half ago ; it might be rather more ; she objected at first, but he said it was of no consequence between them, as he would nev er injure her. After the first connection she objected, and he said if site did not comply with his desires he would leave her and expose her to the world ; she afterwards be came pregnant, and told him of it; he said he did nos be lieve it ; that she could have no reason for thinking so ; that it could not be, she must have taken some cold ; and asked her if she would allow hint to go to Mr. Moivagne, who is a doctor, living at Thrapsten, to get something for her to take, but she objected ; was afterwards delivered of a child ; did n ot s ee the defendant after the child was barn, and has not seen him since. Cross-examined—Her father has been dead eighteen years; her mother has been dead near three years . ; were to reside at her brother's before her mother's death; bee' connection with the defendant has taken place since be mother's death ; is 32 Years of Age; her brother had gene to bed about an hour when her misfortune occurred; had sa t u p with the defendant only Once or twice before tbst night, a fter her brother had gone to bed ; as far as she cao recollect, it was not more than once or twice ; had knoro defendant at that tim e about two years, defendant left bet about two or three o'clock, and slept in her brother's bed. This witness afterwards in the course of a long, severer and acute cross-examination, proceeded to detail facts which sufficiently warranted the very moderate verdict of th e Jury ; but which, at the same time, arc too gross O f publication.] • William Chard, is a surgeon and apothecary, living g t , Bracton, attended Miss Stanton in her confineme n t, and delivered her of a female child, it is still living, has. bee's paid his charge of 2/. I7s. by her brother. Elizabeth Wills, attended Miss Stanton as nurse durivg her confinement; was paid ]l. is. by Mr. Stanton, plaintiff. • William Newton, Steward of the Duke of Dorset, kno", the defendant, he is a tenant of his Gra ce ' s , pays 34 0 ' a-year rent for his land ; the land is properly stocked, con siders him a substantial man. Mr. READER addressed the Jury fur the defendant, and commented strongly on the nature of the plaintiff cro63- examination, after which, Mr. Sergeant DOYLY summed up, and the Jury return ed a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 41. lOs. A Special Jury was summoned, but only four Special Jurymen appearing, a tales was prayed.
