This happy relief exists in a little INSTRU MENT, the appearance of which, when in use, escapes observation, is capable of giving firmness, confluence, anil freedom, and cannot fail to assist the declining powers of a good penman, and would materially improve the perform ance of a bad one. It is honoured by the patronage and recommendation of Sir Astley Cooper, and other highly respectable professional gentlemen.

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 4, 1828. SUMMER ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. GUILFORD, AUGUST 2. oLnvir.t.n mu.r.Ea. l‘r epened the pleadings. The de c laration charged i L t Av h l at the defendant had maliciously arrested the plaintiff for a sum of 1,000/. and afterwards sued out a commission of bankruptcy against him, whereas no such sum, or any part thereof, was due from the plaintiff to Ole defendant. For the injury thus sus tained the present action was brought. Mr. GURNEY said, that the plaintiff asked com pensation of them for a series of injuries committed upon him under circumstances of great aggravation. He regretted that he could not introduce either par ties as persons whose previous lives had been free from blame. The plaintiff was convicted in the year 1824, and sentenced by the Court of King's Bench to a long imprisonment, and to the payment of a heavy fine. It was during this period that the transactions occurred out of which this action arose, and the Jury would have but little reason for doubt ing that the defendant had taken advantage of the plaintiff, conceiving it unlikely that a person so in volved should ever call him to account. He had re presented to the plaintiff that he could get his tine remitted, through application to a certain Noble Lord, but that the application would require to be backed by a sum of 1,000/. Upon this re presentation, the plaintiff gave him an I. 0. U. for 1,000/., with an understanding that whenever the ne gociation was ripe for a conclusion, the I. 0. U. was to be returned, and the 1,000/. paid over through Miller to the Noble Lord. The money was after wards paid by the plaintiff to Miller, but the I. 0. U. was not returned, neither was the object effected for which the money had been paid, for the plaintiff still continued in custody on the suit of the crown. Finding that he had been imposed upon, the plaintiff preferred an indictment against Miller for obtaining from him 1,0001. by false pretences, and immediately upon this Millar lodged a detainer against him, and sued out a commission of bankruptcy, which he ob tained by swearing that the I. 0. U. for 1,000/. had been paid to him by Oldfieldfor a valuable consider ation. At that time the plaintiff was carrying on an extensive business as a wine-merchant, but under the commission his stock was swept away, his connec tion destroyed, and his family deprived of that source of maintenance. The plaintiff petitioned the Vice- Chancellor to have the bankruptcy superseded, and after affidavits had been put in on both sides, the Vice-Chancellor directed an issue to be tried to de termine whether Oldfield was indebted to Miller in. the sum of 1,000/. or not. The cause was heard at the last Assizes, at Kingston, when the Jury found that Oldfield did not owe Miller 1,000/. or any part of that sum. The consequence was that the com mission of bankruptcy was superseded. But in the meantime Oldfield had sustained serious injuries from the conduct of Miller, and it was to recover compensation for these that the present action was brought. Mr. Hill produced a copy of the affidavit of Miller, swearing a debt of 1,000/., and upon which the Commission of Bankruptcy had issued. Mr. Parish, of the King's Bench 'Prison, proved that the plaintiff was detained at the suit of Miller three months. He was then within the walls. Cross-examined by Mr. AboLPilus.—He was not taken within the wails because of the detainer, lodg ed by Miller, but because he had broken the rules. There was a detainer previously lodged against him by a Mr. Abbotburn. Mr. Thomas Mason, auctioneer, proved that the auetioio value of the wines, taken under the Com mission, was 2,698?. _ _ Mr. Porter, clerk to Oldfield, proved that he ma naged the wine business for him. The, profits were about 8001. a•year. The profit on spirits was 20 per cent., and on wines from 10 to 15. Cross-examined.—From the 53 00 / profits were to be deducted his salary, the rent of the warehouse, and other incidental expences. Oldfield had been exchequered in the sum of 500/. for a false permit which had been drawn. He had made no deduction for that in estimating the profits. Mr. Wm. Berwood, messenger to the Commis sioners of Bankrupts, proved taking possession of Oldfield's goods under the commission. Nlr. Spur, attorney to the commission, proved that the difference between the taxed costs recover ed by Oldfield after the superseding of the com mission, and the costs actually incurred, was 225/. 16s. ld. Mr. ADoLPiltis, for the defence, :contended that the damages ought to be very moderate, as it was clear that, with regard to the imprisonment, Old field had sustained no injury from the detainer lodged against him by Miller, he being, previous to and during that time, in custody at the suit of ano ther person. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 225/. 16s. Id. SHREWSBURY, Attu. I. search had already bees made for the body of James Harrison, by digging over a field in which it was said to have been buried, but that search proved in effectual. On Pugh being apprehended, he almost immediately offeredlto confess, and, in consequence of information given by Pugh, the body of Harrison was found in a field called Hocknell's Field, and the other prisoners were immediately taken into cus tody. Harrison, at the time of his disappearance, lodged at the house of Pugh's father; the last time be was seen was with the prisoner Pugh, whom he went out with for the purpose of stealing some ba con; and the Jury would hear that a crime, hereto fore unknown in England, had been committed, a suns having been paid for the murder of Harrison, iii order to prevent his appearing as a witness against Thomas Ellson. Henry Holt lives at Drayton-in-Hales, and knows T. Ellson. In consequence of some information he received from Ellson, he caused a field in that neighbotrhood to be dug up on Thursday the 26th of June last. It was dug 12 yards by 10, and two yards deep ; there was nothing found then ; but on the following Sunday the prisoner, Joseph Pugh, pointed out a particular spot, in Mr. Hocknell's field, which the witness immediately caused to be dug up, and at the depth of four feet from the surface a dead body of a man, with the clothes on, was found. Witness had it carefully dug round, and then re , moved to Drayton poor-house. John Harrison was the father of James Harrison. In June this year the witness Holt showed witness a body at the poor-house. The hair was left, and he could swear to the hair. It was the body of his son James Harrison. . Sarah Harrison, wife of the last witness, corro borated this testimony. Ann Pugh knew James Harrison, the deceased, very well. In the early part of last year he lodged in her house. The last time she saw James Har rison was on Monday night, the 4th July, 1827. On that night she went to bed about 11 o'clock. When she went to bed James Harrison was by .the fire-side; Joseph Pugh, the prisoner, was with him. After she had been in bed two hours her husband wakened her, and she heard a whistle, and got up to the window to see who it was. When she got to the window she saw the prisoner young John Cox; he was skulched under the hedge, so that the witness should not see him. Some time after she heard some one in the house move with their feet. ' Witness went down stairs the next morning, about a quarter before five o'clock, and found Joseph Pugh, the prisoner, on the chair. She wakened him, and asked him how long Harrison had been gone; he said be had not heard him go. The last time witness saw J. Harrison, he had a blue coat, a striped waist coat, and blue trousers on. She saw the body at the poor-house, and thought the clothes on it were the same. She never saw Harrison after she heard the whistle. Thomas Ellsoa—l come now from Shrewsbury gaol. Last year I was in Stafford gaol. I was taken there the• day before Good Friday, on a charge of stealing some potatoes. From Stafford gaol I was taken to Shrewsbury gaol on suspicion of sheep stealing. I remained three months in gaol till the Assizes were over. I married the daughter of the prisoner, old'John Cox. The two young Coxes now at the bar are his sons, and my brothers-in-law. The prisoner Ann Harris is ray mother. After my libera tion from Shrewsbury gaol, I went to old Coxes, at Drayton, and there saw the two young Cox's. Old Cox and his two sons went with me to the Star public-house, where we had some beer together ; ' Robert Cox said to me in the presence of his father and brother, " If it had not been for me and Joe Pugh, you would not have been here now." My mother, Ann Harris then came in, and I went home with her. While I was at my supper in her house that night, Robert Cox came in, and said to my mother, Ann Harris, " your old eyes, if you don't give me some more money, I'll fetch him and rear him up against thy door." The next morning at breakfast-time, Robert Cox came again, and my mother gave him 25., and desired him " never to come bothering her any more." Some time after this I saw Joseph Pugh and young John Cox at my house. Pugh said he was the man that 'ticed Har rison out of his (Pugh's) father's house, under pre tence of going to steal some bacon; he then took him down to the town-field by the penfold, and when they got by Dale's barn, told him they were too soon to steal the bacon, and he must go and lay down by Cartwright's stack. John Cox and Robert Cox were waiting at the stack at this time. Pugh said he then caught Harrison by the wind-pipe, and Robert Cox took him by the legs, and John Cox was digging the grave the while. The last words Harrison said when he was dying were—" Oh, Lord, spare my life, and I'll not hurt Shooter" (rneaniug the witness, that being the nick-name he was known by). Pugh said they killed Harrison in the mowing piece, and then took him into the next field (a ploughed piece) to bury him in. Old Cox after this told me that if it had not been for him and my mother, I should not have, been there. I remember being confined in the lock-up-house at Drayton about some fowls. While I was there, old John Cox came to me about twelve o'clock at night, and said to me if I would say nothing about the murder, he would employ a lawyer and counsel for ate at the Ses sions. I saw old John Cox give Robert and John Cox (id. a-piece. I had some conversation with my mother, Ann Harris, on this subject, and she told me she had given 505., and old John Cox had given 505., to have James Harrison murdered. Henry Holt :—Joseph Pugh was in my custody on the 30th of June last. I had some conversation with him on this affair ; 1 had offered him ne in ducement to say any thing on the subject. I went to him with the Rev. Mr. Edwards. When' we went into the room, he said to me that he took Harrison down the Wiper-lane, and there he met John Cox the younger and Robert Cox. He then knelt down upon Harrison, and young John Cox put a twisted string round Harrison's neck, and pulled it till he was dead. Robert Cox, he said, stood by, but did not assist, and he and John Cox buried him. Edward Simminster, constable of Drayton, sat H p with .Tohn Cox the night he was brought from Newcastle, and remembered on the following morn ing Mr. Edwards coming to him. On Mr. Edwards going away, Cox asked me for my knife to cut his nails with; after that he told me he did not want to cut his nails, but to cut his throat with it. He said his brother Bob was not guilty of the murder, and then proceeded to give a detail of the murder, simi lar to that given by the last witness, adding that he had the cord, and the two ends being knotted fast together, he put *it over Harrison's head, and had a hooked stick in his hand, with which they twisted the end till he was dead. The confession of Ann Harris was now read. It stated, that wizen her son, Thomas Ellson, was taken to Stafford gaol, she went to old Cox, and told him they were both done, without Harrison would go off with her Jack, and he had said he would take him and throw him into a coal-pit. Old Cox said, " him, if Trunkec Pugh had his freedom, he would cut his throat in a wag g on; but Harrison said he would no t go off with Jack without Joe Pngh went off with him, and Joe said he would not go away, as he had done nothing amiss." Bob Cox asked it she would give hint a to get him out of the way, and in a few days after Bob came to her and said,"-- your eyes, you old --; give me the money." She afterwards met him at his father's, and gave him three half-crowns, and sent her father some meat. Cox said be did not care about her PRICE 7D. boy being hanged, but it was a hard thing that her boy should suffer. The Wednesday after her son came out of gaol, she said to the Coxes, pray God Harrison may come back alive, and Robert Cox said he had taken him to Gloucester and listed him. Old Cox told her she should get some poison to poison Harrison. Elizabeth Ellson, daughter of the prisoner old Cox, and sister to the prisoners John and Robert Cox, was wife of Thomas Ellson. Remembered being in her father's (old Cox's) house after Har rison was missing, and Joseph Pugh was present, and Ann Harris said she placed a shovel for several nights out at her door. It was fetched, and brought back again, all over blood and hair ; and the night before James Morrison was found, she wanted to go and fetch his bones, and throw them in the well, be- cause if they did not find him they could not -do any thing : . _ _ Alice Lewis, sister of the prisoner, Ann Harris's husband, saw Ann Harris before Ellson came out of prison, in July, 1827. She asked me if my husband: was going to Newcastle that day. • / -said f" Yes." She said, " Will you do one thing for mer I said " Yes, I will if I can." She then told me to ask my husband to bring her sixpenny worth of poison from Newcastle. I said, " What do you want such a thing as that for, Nanny ?" She said she wanted it for that rogue Harrison, who, she believed, was as big a rogue as any one of the lot. I said, " Nanny, I would not do it if you'd give me my apron full of guineas, and I beg you'll never attempt to do any such a thing." She said, " I never will." The case for the prosecution being closed, the prisoners were called on for their defence, after which The Jury returned a verdict findin . g•Joseph Pugh, John Cox the younger, and Robert Cox, " Guilty." The foreman said that they had not decided respect ing the elder Cox and Ann Harris; but after a few minutes further consideration, found both John Cox the elder and Ann Harris " Guilty." Mr. Justice GASELEE having expressed a wish that the jury would again re-consider the case of John Cox the elder, and read over the evidence affecting him, John Cox, the elder, now called out, " My Lord Joodge, my Lord Joodge, I'll speak, I'll speak now I wool; that there lawyer chap (pointing to his at torney) and: that counsellor there, they a' kept my witnesses out a court, and would not call them. They would not ; and I have them to call." Mr. J. JEavis—My Lord, I have exercised my discretion in not calling witnesses for the prisoner. I have only one on my brief, and if I have done wrong, I must take the responsibility on myself. Old Cox.—My Lord Joodge, let me call my wit nesses. Mr. Justice GASELEE having consented, and di rected the attention of the Jury to their evidence, Mr. J. JERvIs called Mr. Reeves for the prisoner. After a considerable delay the witness made his appearance. He said Ge was a sawyer : all he knew about the business was, that something had passed between Pugh and old Cox, and he had agreed with old Cox to become answerable, jointly with him, for the price of a pair of shoes. The Jury having again consulted for a few minutes, found John Cox and Ann Harris . " Guilty." Mr. Justice GASELEE then passed sentence of death on all the prisoners, and ordered Joseph Pugh, John Cox, the younger, and Robert Cox, to be exe cuted on Monday next, and their bodies to be dis sected. The prisoner Pugh has a gipsy cast of feature, with a look of savage fierceness -when his attention is excited, and is a powerful young man. The two younger Coxes are ill-looking, but their father is ex tremely forbidding both in his countenance and de• meanour. his squalid face exhibits deep traces of revenge, malice, and low cunning. Ann Harris is a remarkably keen-looking woman, with a most ma lignant pair of sparkling black eyes. It was alto gether a most revolting case. Pugh, the father, was called to convict his son, Ellson to convict his own mother and father-in-law and brothers-in-law. His wife corroborated his evidence against her own fa ther and brothers ; and the evidence of Mary Bate man, the daughter of Ann Harris, tended to con firm the testimony which fixed the guilt on her mo ther. Such was the intense interest excited by this trial, that, although it rained heavily, the Court was completely filled before seven o'clock in the morning. The trial commenced at eight, and lasted till half past eight in the evening. Michael Hickman, a ragman, aged 35, was in , dieted upon a charge of having committed a rape upon the body of Hannah Morgan, spinster, in the parish of Ellesmere, in this county, on the 17th day of June. Hannah Morgan, examined by Mr. Whateley.— My father works and lives at Duddleston, in a little bit of a house; my mother lives there also; that is Michael Hickman at the bar; I recollect his coming to my father's house on a Tuesday, but I do not know die month, or how long it is since; when he came to the house I was below stairs, and there was no one at home, except a little child about two years of age; when the prisoner came in, he asked if I wanted to buy any thing; I said, no, and then he offered me twopence and some garters, to play tricks with me ; he said, you had better take them, and I gave him a slap in the face; I do net re• member the words he used when he asked me to play tricks ; he then caught hold of me and threw me down; the first time 1 got away from hitn, but the second time he mastered me ; that was in the house (the kitchen); when I got away the first time he went to the door and looked about him; Ga his coining back he caught hold of me again, and threw me down; I tried all I could to get away, and fought him as Well as 1 could; he succeeded, however, in ill-using me, and I told him to get along, as he would catch it ; he staid as long as he liked, and then he went away. Cross-examined by Mr. C, was not examined by a doctor, but I was very bad for a long time. M'bet; ha went out the first time, I did not take die opportunity to run away, because 1 thought lie was gone ; I did not bolt the aim., be cause I could not find the key of it; I looked for the key on a shelf, because I was afraid of his coming again; I did not run away, because I was afraid of some other persons coming to the house. The prisoner being called upon for his defence, declared he had no more to say than that be was quite innocent. The Jury, after a brief consultation, returned a verdict of—Not Guilty. The Learned Junin: immediately ordered the Pri soner to be kept in custody, and directed a bill for the assault to be sent:up to the Grand Jury." — . The ' Grand Jury immediately returned the bill, and there is no doubt, from the observations whic h fell fitoio the Jury, that he will be convicted when brough to trial.

Corder entered the chapel from the right hand side of the pulpit, and walked with rapid and steady pace to the pew directly opposite. He was dressed in a drab frock coat, blue trousers, Wellington, boois, black military stuck, and aehlack- waistcoat, • As. the sentences particularly Allueive to his situa don were read, his feelings evidently overcame him, and the tears, which he in vain struggled to repress, found a temporary vent. In appearance lie is not much changed, and his bodily health, since his con finement, is, as we heard, upon the whole. much im proved.- The following facts, connected with the prisoner's imputed crime •have, since the close of the inquisi tion, been furnished to the Coroner, and deposed to on oath, and have not hitherto been published. On the night Maria Marten disappeared, she took with her an umbrella, which was seen by her mother three months after she left home in the prisoner's possession, while attending the funeral of his brother James, and on her questioning him as to where ho had got it, knowing it to be her daughter's, he de nied the fact altogether, and said that he had pur chased it at the shop of Miss Pyke, in Stoke. 'l' he conversation on the subject then terminated, and, nothing more was said ; but on her meeting hirn second time, it was reiwed, and she in the interim having made inquiries at Miss Pyke's, he in reply to her telling him se, said'that he had made a mistake, and in explanation added, that he had lately seen Maria, and had borrowed it, as it was iainia when he had left her. Additional testimony has also been obtained from Phoebe Stows (the witness who proved having lent Corder the spade), and she further says, that having met him during the last harvest, she asked him . what had become of his child that was born at Sudbury l He replied that he had married Maria, who he Was certain would, never have any more children; he'd be -- if site should, for she had had her last. She next invired why, if he was married, he did not live witl her observing, she supposed he was jealous of her. He answered no ; that he could go to her whenever lie pleased, and he was sure that when he had not any intercourse with her, nobody else had. An event is this revolting case, which is ne.a ge nerally known is, that the first seducerof Maria Mar ten was the prisoner's eldest brother Thomas, b) whom she had a child. .Her next paramour was: Mr. Mathews, to whom she bore another; and her third and last, the person who is accused with her 'assassination. Mrs. Corder, after the apprehension of her husband, received a pressing invitation to visit her friends in France; hut this she deslined, and is resolved to await the result of his trial. She ';is much older than he is (about 36 years of age), of alady-like appearance, and, though her countenance is not prepossessing, her figure is good. EXETER, Juty 31. BUCHANAN V. PACE.-r-SLANDER. Mr. MOODY having opc:ted the pleadings, and stated generally the nature of the action, Mr. Sergeant WILDE stated the plaintiff's ease at large. His client now appeared in a court of jus tice to prove that he was not the cheat which he had been represented by the defendant, and that the latter had been solely influenced hy a wanton malig nity in making imputations upon the plaintiff's ho nesty, which this trial would prove to have been wholly unfounded. The defendant had pleaded, be sides the general issue, four special pleas in justifi cation, By these pleas he had alleged, not only that the plaintiff had, upon a particular occasion, used false weights and measures, but that he had been in a continual, habit of practising such fraud,. The Learned Sergeant then stated that the de fendant had been, with some others, appointed in t h e course of last year to make a survey of the we i g hts and measures of tradesmen in Stonehwse, n e tl i weights near Plymouth, where the plaintiff resided. As the a d ti t n h t e nt l l ea u s s t e d of i fromnece necessarily I s 2i t aeonwore il them" was away, asi detected, it was the custom of persons in business to send their weights and measures occasionally to the makers to have them re-adjusted. At the tim,- when the examination was in progress, part of the plaintiff's weights were at the maker's fo r th e pur pose of being so corrected, and another part which remained at home were subjected to the examination of the inspectors. The defendant, after the ex amination, went out into the open street, where a great number of persons were collected, and there publicly repeated the words which were the ground of the present action, The Learned Sergeant Then went on to detail at great length the facts and ch., cumstancea of the case. After which, Air, Justice PARK summed up the evidence. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 50/. YORK, Auc. 1. trial, Mr. Justice DOE, Dr.u. HIRST V.

This will be the case so long as the supply comes through one market only, and that supply is fur nished from the depots at Gravesend, and scantily sent to liillingsgatc, so that the price is scarcely ever reduced. In stead of having the fish sickened and deteriorated in confined depots, it should be brought direct to market, fresh and in a healthy state. When this regulation was urged formerly, it was stated to be i m practicable, when the wind and tide were unfavourable for vessels to come to Ilillingsgate. This excuse, however, no longer exists, as fish could be brought directly to market by steamers, and the public be supplied at a reasonable rate. There should be a fish market at the West as well as the East of the town, for the accommoda tion of the inhabitants of Westminster. MURDER. William Stevenson, a miner, was indicted, charged with the wilful muder of John Horton, at the parish of Hales Owen, in this county, on the 31st of March last. The deceased, who was an officer of the Oldbury Court of Requests, met the prisoner, against whom he had an execution, in a public-house. After leav ing the public-house, the deceased attempted to ar rest the prisoner, who stabbed him in the side, and the wound proved mortal. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Justice GASELEE then pronounced sentence of death upon the prisoner, and directed it to be car ried into execution on Monday next. AUGUST 2. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MURDER. Joseph Pugh, John Cox the younger, and Robert Cox, were severally indicted, charged with the wilful murder of James Harrison, on the i'tl► July, 1827; and John Cox the elder, and Ann Harris, as acces sories before the fact, with inciting the said Joseph Pugh, John Cox, and Robert Cox, to commit the said murder. Mr. RICHARDS, for the prosecution, said that the prisoners were charged with the murder of James Harrison ; and in order to render the case intelli gible, it was necessary for him (Mr. Richards) to inform them, that in the early pare of last year con siderable depredations took place in the neighbour hood of Drayton by a gang of sheep-stealers, who proceeded to such an extent as to attract the atten tion of every one. In consequence of some infor mation given by the deceased James Harrison, a man of the name of Thomas Ellson was apprehended and committed to gaol. The apprehension of Ell son, with some further information expected from Harrison, would, it was supposed, involve the pri soner, John Cox, if not the rest of the family. The elder Cox, the prisoner at the bar, was the father of the prisoners, John and Robt. Cox, and Ann Harris was the mother of Ellson. As the trial of Ellson was approaching, it became necessary that Harrison, the principal evidence against him, should be got out of the way. When the trial came on, Harrison was not forthcoming ; but as he was known to have been ac quainted with the prisoner, his absence did not at first excite much astonishment; but when it cep tinned for some time without any tidings of him, inquiries coin menced, attention was attracted to th e su bj ect , an d it was rumoured he bad been made away with. It was not till Ellson had been again taken up, that any clue was gained to unravel this mystery; but, in consequence of some information then obtained, the prisoners, Jos. Pugh and Ann Harris were taken into custody. A
