Edward Matthews, a brass-founder, lu the employ of Mr. Sheen, of Holborn-hill, was charged with creating a riot and disturbance before the house of Mr. Prosser, the army elothier at Charing-cross. He was ordered to find bail. Various other charges were preferred and sulistantiated,all arising from the riots on Saturday night. Bow-sraxm—Yesterday, Mr. Burnie was sitting from ea early hour till alidnight, with very little intermission. Several persona charged with outrages in breaking windows, &e. were ordered to find bail, or be committed. Shortly after 4 egtock two men were brought to the odic. from Ceve.at•gardeu market, armed with six muskets, six swords, anti tow pistols, calling out "The Queen," &a. They afterwards underwent an examination, when Lack, the constable, said he Ili IA the Prisoners in Henrietta-street, with the above deadly weapons and behaving in a very disorderly way, and hearing sue of thew say they would go into Covent-garden market and load them, he took them into custody. The prisoners, in giving an account of themselves, said their names were William Harvey, a coachwaker, working for Mr. Turner, of Long-acre, and William Ryles, ► brass founder and sword-cutler, residing its Wild-street. He and ' Harvey had been to Huugerford wharf to fetch the weapons, they having arrived there hoes Richmond, where they had been lent to Mr. Klanert, the manager of that theatre, fur theatrical purposes. They belonged to a Mr. Iket{;autisi Bond, who supplied the small theatres with the luau of such articles. The weapons were examined to ascertain If they werenaids for theatrical purposes, when five out of the six swords were found to be so; the other was sharp. One of the pistuis had belonged to a dragoon. The guns had flints in thaw, which the prisoner accounted for by saying, it was necessary when they were to be Fred on the stage. The Magistrate believing the defence, discharged the pri soners, but detained the weapons till this day, to prevent their being used for mischievous purposes.

Disco/nal or A Muaora.—We have collect ed, from a Gentleman of this City, who oblig ingly culled at our Office on Thursday last, some interesting particulars connected with the deve lopment of an atrocious case of Alurder, perpe trated in the County of Carlow, nearly seven years since, and the circumstances of which had beau involved from that period In profound mystery. It appears that, about the time alluded to, a per son employed as a process-server, had been sent in that capacity to the house of a farmer of the name of Edmund Murphy, of Ballyellan, in the county of Carlow, and had on that occasion suddenly dis appeared. All inquiry into the probable circum stances of this extraordinary event proved fruitless; and it was not until within a few days past that the disclosures of a servant, who had been in the employment of Murphy since and some time previous to, the disappearance of the man in question, brought to light the certainty of his mur der by Murphy and his barbarous confederates. The servant, in resentment, we believe, of some offence received from his master, deposed before a Magistrate of the county, Illackney, Esq., to the facts of this revolting crime, and described the place and position In which the body of the mur dered man had been, with his assistance, buried. A very diligent search was accordingly made in Murphy's garden, where, at length, the skeleton _ as found, placed in an upright position,— Measures had been previously taken to secure the person of Murphy, who, however, while his house WAS so surrounded by a police force, secreted himself in a loft, to which the entrance, by a trap door, was so indistinct as wholly to have escaped observation, On the retirement of the police the fellow effected his escape, and has not yet been taken. His brother, who is charged as an accomplice, is now in custody. There is no doubt, I.V• learn, that the information of Mur phy's servant has implicated others in thi s d e ed of blood, which the signal iutervention of Pro vidence has thus discovered.--(Moderator.) From an account just printed by order of the House of Commons, in " A Supplementary Report of the Committee of the General Assembly," as to the managent of the poor in Scotland, it appears that the gross funds applied to paupers in Scot land amount to 114,1951. 178. 9d. of which 49,7181. 108. sd. are derived from assessment, the crest being from contributions at the church doors and other funds. In seven out of fifteen synods there are no assessments. The non-assessed synods, are Aberdeen, Moray, Ross, Sutherland and Caithness, Argyll, Glenelg, and Orkney. The paupers are as 1 to 39 and 9-10ths to the population. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. '3. ' THE TOLLS OF THE TOWN OF NEWCASTLE-UPON TYNE. THE CORPORATION V. Mr. BROUGHAM in this case moved the Court . to set aside a verdict of 9s. 6d.. which had bn.,u obtained by the plaintiffs, and grant a new trial. The case was tried before Mr. Justice Bayley at Durham, and a verdict for nominal damages taken for the plaintiffs. The action was brought to try the right of the Corporation to certain tolls on corn entering the town. Mr. Brougham urged twogrounds for setting aside the verdict. First and principally, that it was against the evi dence; and secondly, that it was brought about by the misdirection of the Learned Judge. .He endeavoured to show that the evidence on the trial 'oil the part of the plaintiffs did not warrant the verdict that the Corporation were entitled 0 these tolls. The principal part of that evidence was documentary, but the charter of 1560, in the reign of Elizabeth, which granted a toll on all corn entering the town, was for the protectiou of the Mtcragio and Pontagio (the wall au.l. bridge), and the immense imports which were now levied could never have been all designed for that purpose. There was also a lack of evi dence to shew the antiquity of this toll. A half penny a boll (two Winchester bushels) was now claimed by the Corporation, but four-pence in our days was worth a shilling in those of Eliza beth, and was it reasonable to think so large toil would then be imposed ? And it should be remembered that this was a toll in money, not in kind, and that the nominal value as you went back was not diminished. The amount of the toll made it improbable so much bad been claimed fortnerly_ The CHIEF JUSTICE said, all this had been more properly laid before the Jury at the Trial. Mr. Iluounnalt said he had done so, but he contended the Jury had drawn wrong conclusions. He then said he had new evidence to oiler, which had been discovered only since the trial took place. It was a charter granted to the Cor poration in 1333, the 4th of Edward 111. by which they were entitled to demand tolls for ten years, and no longer. This too was for the repair of the bridge and road, being the same pretence that the Corporation now made use of to demand tolls. In looking to this charter, he found that the tolls granted were very high, such as 2d. for every ten sheep ; but he supposed the reason for that was, that Newcastle was so much exposed to the incursions of the enemy, the Scotch, and indeed to this day it was often In fested with them.—(A laugh.) Mr. Justice BayLEY.—‘ l lthink you are right In saying it was the exposed situation of Ne .r. castle which made the King grant such high toll* to keep its walls in repair. And as you talk of the dangers of the Border, perhaps you are not aware that to this day the Judges receive dag ger-money, to protect them In that circuit. Mr. Bttounumd repeated his arguments for ss new trial ; but the Court refused to grant It, al , leglug that the Jury had the whole evidence before them at the trial, and that they had ue reason to presume that the conclusion which they drew was a wrong one. Their Lordships, how ever, restrained the plaintiffs from offering the judgment iu this case as a bar to any other action which might arise under similar circumstance* agalnst the Corporation. DAVY MITFORD AND OTHERS. This was au action against the Commissioner, of Bankrupts, for assaulting and falsely soniug the plaintiff. It will be recollected that at the late Sittings at Guildhall, before Mr. J u fie tics BAILEY, the plaintiff had a verdict for 200 L damages. Mr: SCARLETT now moved for It rule to she* cause why the verdict should not be set aside, anit a new trial granted. The plaintiff having been de., clared bankrupt, was brought before the Commis- sioners repeatedly, and examined touching his aw counts. 110 wab required to produce a balance sheet, and promised so to do, and several days were given him to produce it; but not having complied with his promise, he was at length committed to New. gate, where he was confined for many weeks. The Learned Judge at the trial charged dm Jury,that under the Acts concerning 13ankruptit, Commissioners had no authority to commit for not producing a balance sheet, and the Jury found foe the plaintiff as above-mentioned. The Learned Counselnowfounded his motion upon the suggestion that the plaintiff had not been committed for no; producing a balance sheet, but for not satisfac torily answering upon the days repeatedly giveta him for explanation touching his accounts : and he referred to the Commissioners' warrant in support of the argument, contending that Coot. misiiouer• might lawfully commit under the cir cumstances or the examination therein set out. The Court, after hearing the circumstance* stated, granted a rule Nidi. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 13. DOE 0. PITT. Thts was an action of ejectment, at the trial of which the defendant's Counsel had contended that the lessor of the plaintiff had waived his right by distraining on the defendant. The Jury bad given a verdict for the plaintiff. The defendant in person now appeared ea wove for a new trial on the above ground, also because by accounts between himself an t the Jessor of the plaintiff, it appeared there *fts no rent due on which to maintain either distree6 or ejectment. The .Coo.arr said, that ae the matter related to accounts, the defendant had better prepare affidavit, containing a simple statement of thee,, on which he could then move at a future day.
