This Was an issue from the Court of Exchequer, to decide whether there had been from time immemorial a modus, or customary payment of ss. a year in each year, in lieu of all actual payment of the tithe of hay, cut in the hamlet or vill of Sharlston, in the parish of liVhartnfield. Mr. NVlLLiaats, for the plaintiff, maintained the affirmative of the issue, and called several witnesses of very advanced digs, to prove that there never had been any taking of hay in kind by the Vicar of Wharintield, in the township of Sharlston, within the memory of man, andthat ss. had always been paid to the Vicar 'when of it by the Churchwardens, who levied it by means of an amassment on the trill. Ile also put in a written document, which was stated .to be a discharge gives by the Churchwardens of the township to an Earl 61 Westmoreland, in the early part of the last century, for Is. 9d., being his contri bution to the ss. paid by the parishioners in lieu of tithes. Mr. SCARLETT, for the defendant, who is the Vicar of the perish, contended that his Learned Friend had failed to establish the existence of the inotlus. He had not shewn this payment of bs. to be eithericonstant,uniforin, or immemorial. He would, however, show from documentary evidence, that there had ne vet- been any modus for hay in the township of Sharlston. The Learaed'Counsel then put in evidence, the endowment of the vicarage of ‘Vharm field with the tithe f hay in the township of Sharlston, by the prior and convent of St. Oswald in York, in the part of the 13th century. In this document there was no mention of any modes. Ile next put in an inquisition made in the reign of Henry VIII., on the dissolution of .the mo nasteries by the Court of Commissioners for the augmentation of `The King's revenues, wherein the tithe of hay was valued at three shillings, but no mention was made of a modus. He afterwards put in a survey of ell the livings in the county made by a Parliamentary Commission in the time of the Common wealth, which was equally silent on the subject of a modus.-- He then produced several terriers to prove the same fact, and stated that it was not until the year 1727 that mention of a model' was to be found in them. In that terrier, mention was made of a composition of" by: for all the hay in the•CrOfts, and nothing to be paid for the other hay, except the herbage." It was with a view of obtaining their construction of these words that the present issue had been sent down to a Jury. The House of Lords had been occupied during four days In hearing saiebate as to the meaning of the word " croft." He thought that no man, or at least that no north country Man, ought to have doubt. ed as to the meaning of that word ; but somehow or other, the Lord Chancellor had doubted, and perhaps it Was no wonder, after he had been puzzled by a four days' debate upon it, and had called upon them for their assistance in interpreting it. He left it to them to decide whether the silence of the early do. cuments as to the modus was not as decisive evidence against its existence, as the fact of its being first mentioned in so recent a document as the terrier of 1727. - Mr. WILLIAMS replied upon the evidence, and contended that his case had not been at all shaken by the observations of his Learned Friend. He likewise complained that his Learned Friend had withheld evidence which lie ought to have pro duced, from a knowledge, that, if produced, it must ruin his own case. Mr. Justice DAYLEY summed up the evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, establishing the modus, and therefore defeating the parson's claim. Vila was the last case of any importance tried at these Assiaes. DURHAM, SATURDAY, AUG. 14. • Mr. Baron Hum.ocK arrived at this place at seven o'clock in the evening, and immediately proceeded to the County Courts, to open the commission in the usual form. The calen dar is particularly heavy tbr this county. There are twenty-six prisoners to be tried—of whom two arc committed fur murder, one fur a rape, one for an unnatural crime, one for man slaughter, one for cutting and maiming, one for a highw:iy robbery, one for sheep-stealinr, one for administering poison, one for maiming and disf.guting a horse, and fifteen for minor 4,:ffences. THE ATTRACTIONS OF A GAOL. A person of the name of Braybrook, late of Shefford, in Bedfordshire,- was committed to the Fleet Prison, at the suit of a creditor resident at Hitchin, Herts, but from motives of humanity toward the defendant's large family, the plaintiff did not declare against him, hence the prisoner was left supersedable. Instead of availing himself of this clemency , , and returning to his family, who were forced to go to the work. house, where they have since been a but then to the parish, he obtained, from time to time, fictitious actions, and remained his own prisoner, preferring a life of idleness to one of industry. He derived his support from the rent of his room, and the precarious bounty of green.horn prisoners. Last week several spirited collegians represented the matter to the Warden of the prison, and stated the hardship—that a volunteer prisoner should, by occupying one of the rooms, deprive More deserving and Deco. shoos persons of their privilege ; in consequence of which Mr. Brown applied to the atomics ►n the actions, and procured the necessary discharge, after which he was expelled by his brother collegians as nu unworthy " fellow ;" and the Governor gave strict orders to the turnkey never to admit him again.--A Frenchman, who had been several years contined for debt in the Fleet l'rison, found himself so much at home within its walls, and was withal so harmless and inoffensive a charac ter, that the gaoler occasionally permitted him to recreate himself by spending his even►ngs abroad, without any apprehension of the forfeiture of his verbal engagement. His little earnings as ajack.of-all-trades enabled him to form se veral pot-house connections, and these led him by degrees to be less and less punctual in his return at the appointed hour of nine. " I'll tell you what, liloonseer," at length said the jailer to him, " you are a good fellow, but I fear you have lately got into bad company ; so I tell you, once for all, that if you don't keep better hours t shall be under the necessity of locking you out altogether !" Kist's BENCH Paitsom.—A circumstance oc curred this list week, wnich has caused a great stir amongst the Rulers of Banco Regis. Mr. W. le. William; the pro. prietor of the Surrey and Sudler's Wells Theatres, whci..hris since the last term, been in execution at the suit of Mr.. Wood row, for upwards of 6001., but accommodated with the privilege of residing with his family in the rules, presided on Thursday at .a public dinner, at Nat. Oreaves's Coffee.room, which being a separate building, situated in , , the yard detached from Vichardson's dwelling; the Grapes public-house, has heretofore always been considered as strictly within the Rules, and publicly resorted to by all the dctinues to meet their friends, either for the purposes of pleasure or business. Benton, attorney for the plaintiff Woodrow, aware of the .Rule of Court of the 36th of Gem* 111., Which orders, " That all taverns, victualling-houses,. ale-houses, wine -vaults; houses or places licensed to sell gin or other' spirituous liquors, and all places licensed for public entertainment; shall 'be excluded Oilt of, and deemed no part of the said Rules," sent two of his clerks as guests to the dinner, one. of whom,„ pretending urgent business, requested leave to retire foe a short time, soon after the cloth was removed, and proceeded immediately to' the Crown-Office, filed the necessary affidaiit, returned speedily to the company, by whom he was received. with 'cheers, and his health proposed by the Chair Man. Early in the evening the Marshal,' Win. Jones, F.aq. was served with the notice of an ESCAPE, and instantly . dispatched one of his officers fur Mr. Williams, who found the Manager in high glee, listening to the melodious Strains of some of his performers, whom he had invited to do heeseur to the feast, and entertain his friends with some vocal harmony . . ,The Marshal was doubt ful how to act; but ultimately consigned Mr. Williams to the interior of the prison. On Saturday' Mr. Jones summoned the parties before bin; when a number of persons declared that , Mr. Williams had never left the Rulers room ; and it ival.dettitle4 l that he should again be allowed the Rules, on payipg the costs of the proceeding. A Canal is in contemplation from Wear Gif ford, about three miles from Bideford, to go by Torrington to Iluisk, the seat of Lord CLINTON; proceed to Eggesford, the residence of the lion. NEWTON FELLOWES ; and thence by Exeter 10 Topsham. By' this course heavy goods will be received in the North of Devon Own Loudon, wiLhont Paining round thw land. mixture of oil, turpentine, and white lead. In another part were found a sack and a pair of jean trowsers which had i*nited and which had evidently been steeped in oil and turpentine. — Si mil tit- appearances were discoverable in other parts of the room; und a hole in the wainscot of a closet through which a light must have been seen upon the stairs, was stuffed with some cloth. Mr. Fearn, in consequence of these appearances, went immediately to the prisoner's house in Amelia-street, Walworth, and hav ing called bins to the door, he gave him in charge to a watch. man. Sir R. Br FINIS asked Mr. Fearn what amount of goods he found in the loom, and was answered not more than 51. worth. The prisoner was about to put some questions to Mr. Fearn, when he was asked if be was aware of the nature of the charge against him ? Prisoner—l am, Sir, fully aware. Sir R. Buttert—Are you aware of the consequences that may result front it ? Prisoner--I am. Sir R. BinNIE—Do you know that it is a capital offence? Prisoner-0 yes, Sir ; I ant perfectly aware of all that. Sir It. BlnerlE—Then had you not better reserve anything you may have to say until you can procure legal advice The prisoner seemed thankful for the suggestion, and was silent. He was committedzt week for re-exatnination. DI;TR NG CASE. BOW-ST ItEET.—Margaret Jones, a young woman with an infant at her breast, and two others, iscarcelyetble to walk, by her side, was placed at the bar, chitrged.with stealing a piece of bacon, value Md. ! from the shop of Careless, a cheese monger in Claresstreet. The unfortunate creature and her children were extremely clean and neat in their appearance, but the mother had all the symptoms about her of a want of necessary food. She seemed so weak as to be scarcely able to support her own weiglit, with the trifling addition, ofethet of her suckling infant. Her husband was also in attendance, and was equally clean with his wife, but exhibited the same ap. pearance of want. The charge was clearly proved by a fat red-faced young man, shoprnan to Mr. Careless. The poor prisoner said not a word but wept bitterly, and hugged her child to her breast; while the two other little ones, unconscious of the cause, clung to her apron, and cried because their mother did. The poor husband turned hie face aside, but we saw the tear trickling down his aunken cheek. Sir R. fitnNtE—Good Goal! am Ito send this poor creature to prison for stealing tenpenny worth of bacon ? The cheesemonger'e fat and well.fed shopman stood a per fectly unmoved spectator of this heart.rending scene; :Ma in answer to Sir Richard's question, very coolly sa id— " Yes, Sir, we must prosecute t for you have no idea how much we suffer by such people. It really takes off much of our profits." Sir R. BinwtE—Well, let her be committed; perhaps it mar ultimately benefit the unhappy family. - The prisoner was then removed from the bar. The rules of the prison to which she was about to be committed rendering it impossible that she could have the two elder children with her, she was compelled to part with them. The separation was - affectieg beyond description. The husband afterwards asked Sir It. Birnie for an order to take his children to the workhouse, but was told by the Worthy Magistrate to go at once to the Overseer ; an order, he was sure, would not be necessary. The poor man stated that he was a fringe-maker, but had been a long time out of employ. ment in consequence of the slackness of trade. CRUELTY TO ANIMALS. l 's te i r r a . t lS io i n aT i t n in t a li n c d Co h n is . man Ci n i t v e i n ie n ef t er e e h . a — a c T e h rt e ai e l u ll p y e w ri e n r t x en ed da i n tr e c e at o a f duct of the drovers of Stnithfieldsmarket- towards the beasts under their charge, anti the Sitting Alderman is no longer over .whelmed with complaints by the inhabitants of being obliged continually to witness scenes of the roost disgusting cruelty and barbarity. One fellow, however, of the name of Thomas Gou, the wearer of the badge No. 580, rebels against this sort of sue . vellum's, and sets Mr. Martin and his Acts all at defiance. His conduct towards the beasts is said to have been brutal in the ex treme, and generally complained of by the salesmen attending the market, and neither shame nor fine seems to hays any effect with him. Upon one occasion of complaint he affected contri tion, and his offence was overlooked upon his apologizing in the public prints. For subsequent offences he had been fined, but latterly he hoe disregarded all summonses, and his per. sonal strength and daring resolution renders him an over. matoblOs ski - 'Wheeler•had smoothed Mat -I. t rauseltia , sas thsatlay blahs antirsettnessed cruelty In striking the animals over the beck ; but as his efforts to appre. bend him were likely to be about as successful as those of a dwarf direCted airainst a giant, et h t e lev a ble tt ens it i ei sht l aen t ge il ea l ,: t e h bi e uti o tm ffi tti c ine er ree s hh c a rt er m ig z i l lto a : , he aa m t a is r u k a e l t , in m t : h u e ie m a o t r ie n s i p n four or five of them against him, he was at length overpowered. Then brought before Mr. Alderman CROWDER at this office yesterday, every body had some tale to tell of his wanton barba rity. One person had seen him strike a sheep dead with one blow of a stick; another had witnessed him with his stick at a single stroke fell un ox as completely as if it had been struck with a butcher's axe ; in short, he seemed to take pride in the strength and dexterity with which he could commit acts of bar. barity. The (taring, careless manner of the fellow as he stood at the bar, bespattered all over with the shower of mud and water which his resistance had made, his youth and muscular appear. ance, seemed to confirm the numerous complaints that were made against him. The particular offence, however, with which he now stood charged was wantonly and cruelly striking an ox over the hock that morning, and to this feet Wheeler deposed on his oath. Goss, in his defence, denied the fact, for, said he, I only hared one beast all this morning, and that was before you were there. Wheeler, however, said he had been in the market nearly all the night, and had observed the prisoner's conduct, though he took no notice of it to him till there were officers there to assist him. The usual penalty for such offences has been only IN. ; but the Alderman finding that so small a fine had produced no effect upon him before, convicted him in the penalty of 401. Goss seemed to care but little about that, and wished the officer who had him in custody to go with him and he would get him the money. This, however, he declined, and as no single officer would venture along with him on such an errand, the fellow was locked up till he could procure the money. Alanstost-liousE.—Thomas Taylor, a man of very re spectable appearance, was a few days ago brought before the the LORD Meson, charged with having embezzled upwards of 8001. the property of his employer, Mr: Alderman Garrett, to whom he was a traveller. There are some circumstances of rather a peculiar nature connected with the case. Mr. Alder. man Garrett has thought tit to bring an action against the former employer of Taylor for having given a false character of him, by which false character the Alderman was induced to take him into the service of the firm: The prisoner, in palliation of the offence for which he was brought before the Lord Mayor, pleads that he had been unfortunate enough to commit a similar error in the house Which had given him the diameter for in tegrity, and that in requital of such generous treatment, he com menced a plan of defrauding the Alderman in order to pay off the amount of his previous embezzlement. The action is still prisoner, upon* finding that ell was nyeewith hint, c l rin na tr i i n v g ea T to he get an appointment in the Sandwich lsisreis, and had retired to a seaport in expectation of Sailing daily. No was anifested by the Alderman to have t v h er e y p g ri r s e o a n t ty er a t n a x k i e e ni m nto custody, until the former employers of the latter accused the Alderm an of a wish to wink at the escape of a person against whom so heavy a charge was ma d e . Officers were 'then ,sent off with directions to bring Taylot 'before the Lord Nlayer. It was sworn that at various time!' the prisoner took up stuns of money from the customers of the firm, and not account for them on his return. One particular item for 52./. odd shillings, was taken as sufficient for the purposes of prose cution, and Taylor was committed for trial to the Giceacester Assizes, the offence having been sworn to have taken place in Gloucester.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CHARLIE OF ARSON. DOW-STREET.—Yesterday Robert Ball, a young man of res pectable appearance, was brought before Sir R. BtßxtE by . Snow, a constable of Waiworth, charged On suspicion of felo niously setting fire to a certain apartment occupied by him, with intent to defraud the Sun Fire Office. The prosecutor was Mr. John Fearn, of 97, Strand, boot maker, from whose evidence, corroborated by other testimony, it appeared that he had known the prisoner for a considerable time. He was by trade a< carpenter ; but some time ago he told Mr. Fearn that he was about to commence dealing in wearing apparel and boots and shoes, and BI r. Fearn agreed to , lend him the use of a room in his house as a deposit pro tenipore for his stock, This was six months ago,.and the pnsoner then brought a quantity of clothes, some woollen cloths, boots anti shoes, and some carpenter's tools, which were deposited in, the room. For the first two months he hid not the exclusive pOssession of the apartment, but for the last four months he had it entirely to him self; and Whin he went home to his residence at Walworth at night, he fastened the door with a padlock. Subsequently the prisoner brought upon several occasions cans of oil and turpen tine, which he deposited in the rooM. Soon after he had taken possession of .the room entirely, he effected a Policy of Insur ance at the Sun Fire Office' o the amount of 4061. upon goods and fixtures alleged by hint tp be contained therein. On Sa turday evening last Mr. Fearn went out at about a quarter be fore ten o'clock, and at that time.the prisoner was sitting in an apartment occupied by a young man of the name of Wood, a lodger in the house. In a few minutes after Mr. Fearn had quitted the house, the prisoner went down to the landing place below Mr. Wood's aparttnent and balled' out," Mrs. Fearni is Mr. F. gone out ?" Mrs,,Fearn answered in the affirmative; and he then went to the top of the house where his store=room is situated, and procured a light from aotne.tailors who were at work 'upon the same floor. He left the house very Shortly, after having padlocked the door of his room as usual. He had not been gone many minutes when Mr. F.'s ma id servant, hav ing occasion to goUp ktairs, perceived a strong Smell of fire, and she asked the tailors if they had been snaking tinder ? Passing the door of the prisoner's room She saw' a strong light issue from the crevice at the bottom, and , she immediately gave an alarm that Mr. Ball's room was on fire. 'Mr. Wood ran up, and with a poker endeavoured to force open The door; but he broke the po ker in several pieces before he could demolish thepadlock. The door was at length *reed, and the room discovered to be on fire in three separate places. It was very speedily extinguished, not hiving gained . Much ground. The room was then examined ; and in a recess iii ogee' i corner in which there are amine shelves fixed, where Me ' rernaini of a w'aistettt which had been steeped in turpentine atill_smoking ; anti uponthe; shelf over this was a hat hoz, against whic h was placed a small cask containing a Parc n SRVEMPENCia.
