J. GALVERT.• Gentlemen, this letter was rerei .ed by Miss Hewett, the prosecairrist, by the common convey ance of the post ; and as_ slie now began to be truly alarmed, she consulted with her friends, to -etuleavour,_ if possible, to trace it. In conse- , quehee, a person was dispatched to Bristol•with the cover of a letter directed to John Calvert, and with instructions to watch, Mid see what per son would call for letters so directed. Inquiries were also matte at the Post-haiee, alid thereanotber letter was found, directed to the chief clerk of the Oilic4and signed John Culvert. It stated, t hat John Calvert intended being in Bristol, Ind not know ing where his residence would be, had ot dered his letters to be diteeted to the office; but being prevent ed from going thither, he would esteemit a favonrif the clerk would forward them to him at the Post office, Columhtot.), Os•von. A . one-pound note WWI enclosed as a fee for his troohle, and he Was requested 'to acknowledge tie teceipt by the first post. In couseqdence Of a communication with the Post-master at Bristol, the lettets were re. directed, and forwarded to the Post-office at Co lunthton, and a person was directed to wait there and 3CC Who Cann: for them. During:the whole of the following day no person come bat on the 29th, of July Mary Flay appeared at the office with a ktter, which contained a request that any letter fur Mr. Calvert should be forwarded in the cover which was enelOsed to the Post-master for that purpose. The letters were accordingly sent, and a Constable then took Mary Flay into cus tody, with the letters in her possession., On be illy; taken before a Magistrate, she stated, that she was Seta by her mother, and ter mother was ern played by Ann Berry, of Calinstock, who is a ser vant Of the prisoner ;.aml Ann lip rry will state that she received this cover front her mistress's fiend. SO far, Gentlemen, we hate traced the letter to the lrtisc,rier at the bar. If she had no knowledge of the first letter, it would be one of the most extra ordinary circumstance's ort earth that she should scud to receive letters directed to John Calve' t. How should she know that any letters were cow , ing 'for John talvert, or what had she to do with John Calvert ? It is not possible to bring evidence of the prisoner's sending the rst letter ; but when we find,. her so mixed up with this trans' action—When you find the name of John, Call veil pervading the whole of it seems to war rant but one inferenceand that is, that the letter Couldonly have been sent byt he pi isoner. It is runt to be expected that more than circum stantial evnience could be given. of this; but if Ono) strong and irresistible' ciscomsfattees you 'Gad she was the only person rwho could hove , Written .thiS letter, it will be your duty to. find Lee guilty. .GentLmen, I have now stated to outlines of the citeuinstances we have to lay-be. fore" you 'in evidence ; and. I can voly say, that nothing will be utOre gratifying to the prosecutriK if the prison9r at the bar can .give any .th.log like a satisfactory account so as t o entitle, hex tb your ttetplitt4i. • Artill' Gunner, who lived with Miss Ann Hewett, 'at Tiverton, Proven the foregoing statement ftiV l ilt' prosecution. John Dove, Post-muster of Taunton, was also examined. Aj r , Girpoith,......;My Lor►l, in this stsge of the proceeding, ) beg to submit an objection; which hpplies to all the founts that set out tie The indictment states, that she sent a letter to 'Miss Ann Hewett of the rennin' following,, , ! —Then it se.s ►►ut the•letter.. 13ut they .. go on to state in the inthetment as part of the leiter that which is . written on rite envtApe, sisbmit, is no part' of the letter; as. it refers to the letter itself, in these before you open this latter.'-- This is written not . on the inlet tnil part ot the en velope, but on the extern part of it. The whole language shows that the other is the letter, and what is written on the envelope is quite a sep►►- rate matter. I submit to your 'Lordship that MS fornitt no part of the contents ot the letter . : tt ►s not considered by the writer as such. Mr, Jostice flouto*D.—That which yoirrefer to is written %%Orin that which contains the letter, and I think the whole,of it forms only one letter. It is on a separate sheet, bits it is not necessary that the a hole of a letter should be written on one sheet of paper. II have frequently teceived long letters trout the East Indies on svieralsheets of paper, but they constituted Only one letter.' Benjamin Dodd examined by Mr: Wii,Liots. Wit nes% remembered having written something for Mary Gunner on the 6th of Judy. Mary thinner examined. She remembered that paper, which she afterwards copied : it was the copy 'of that writing which she sent in answer. to the first letter: Mr. Dodd indicted it for her, and she copied it and sent it by the post. Mr. tityroan rose again,—My Lord, in exa mining the itAdictmant 1 perceive an error, which na iterii.liy Micas the Case. The letter says, If you hired a set of me.ll to wsteltyour ; house by night but it i s set out, in every one of the counts, 4 1/ nights.' how, I submit to your Lord ship, that this variance is fatal, and I rely 06 the. ease of Rex v. Bear, referred to in Flart's case, East, 978, which Was tried at the Worcester Lent Assizes in . 1776. The COlirt agreed," that ivhere an instrument is set nett ju to tenartnt, the tetinitr mist be in the indictment according to the !ristrii- Meat. In this case the indictinent proles'ses to state the rennin . , bnt uses the 'words by nights' instead of the exact words by night,' which comes directly within the case that I have cited, Mr. - iirtwASl4.--My Lord,. I suinnit that by ttig - hts and by night is the 4iiine word, It does alter the sense ; and your Lordship knows, that Where the omission or addition of - a' letter does not not alter the sense of ~ the.,Word, the variance is not material. This was expressly held by Lord Mansfield, Hart's eat e, which my Learned Friend has eited,•Wits an:lntlictment toe for'ging a bill of exchange. The bill prot4teed in evidence cot res ponicti with, that set-forth in the indictment., except that it was wri(tetti ." tailuc mew ia4tund,of y~ :~ • “calne received." 'lle ptlsontv was ennvictea but judgment was re -spited upon . the question, whether this literal variance .was material, the wards sounding floe same : - amd on the,7th at Jane, l 776, all the tidgcs . (lle Grey, C.'S., and Wines, J. absent), were of ripilma, that the variance «as not material, as it hlid nut change the. word; ,and by Gould, J, if the Ward had been writtem reecio'd Teted, h et in the one instance,- and the i in 'the other, must have been neces;:arity un del-Stood. Mr. Gtvroais.-1115? Lord, I still 'submit that the variance in this case is fatal. It fs another word ; and 1 - rely on the case of Rex ve Bear. 'l' ere is, also another vase, the Queen-:t, Drake (Salk. 66i.) which in oceeded upon : its being a different word--nor - for not*. and Powys., J.. shyi, in the report of the same case in Holt,- Rep. 350, that he did not mark this to be so small a variance of lertet as it it happent4 its false spelling ,or abbre viations, %Oda possibly ;night vat hurt. Here the instrument is in the indictment according to the teaotir,: and the e'er' winds laid, and nut the substance and effect of them, must be proved. 3nstkellin.HOYD', after having looked into the several cases, delivered his opinion as follows: —lt seems to me, that the words by night, and by nights, are two distinct words. The sense may be the same, thong!) certainly it is not common parlance ; but the law ties me up by -ti.e ssofd tenor, to have the exact words. I an) tint inclined to go beyond what has been determined, but it dues not appear to me that those cases have been overruled. The Learned' Judge then told the Jury, that an objection had bvetu taken to the in dictment in point of law ; and though there was Ito alteration in the sense of the words, yet, as they had undertake') to Set out the tenour of the letter, the objection was fatal. The Jury immediately returned a verdict .of Not Guilty. The Court %vita exceedingly crowded, partictt lady by Ladies; and we noticed several persons of the first distinction in the et linty. Charlotte .4siffurd, the prisoner, is the wifev o f a surgeon, and authoress of Ottia in Search of a Husband, and other works. Lord arid Lady Rolle are said to be the persons who provided the parti calar accommodations for her SUSPICIOUS DEATH.
