HOR ARY TABLES, for findi ng th e Ti me by Inspection, to facilitate the operations for obtain ing the Longitude at Sea by Chronometers and Lunar Ob servations ; also for finding both the Latitude and Time, by noting the exact interval by a good watch-or chronometer,. between two observed Altitudes of the Sun, or a fixed Star ; or by the simultaneous observations of the Altitudes of any two celestial objects. To whicli is added, by w a y of Appendix, an easy method of Clearing the Observed Distance of the effects of Refraction and Parallax, with new Tables for the purpose, computed according to Mr. Lyon' s Theory, and with Dr. Thomas. Young's Refractions. By THOMAS LYNN, Late Commander in the Sea-service of the East India Company, and Examiner (appointed by the Honourable Court of Directors,) of the Officers of that service.— Author of " The Improved System of Telegraphic C om .. municetion."—" Star Tables."_Nantical and Astronomi cal Tables."—" Supplementary Tables of the Moon's Place, for every three hours, in; right ascension and declination, &c." to be printed annually for two years in advance. Ste reotyped and printed for the Author. Sold by himself, at 148, Leadenhall-street ; by Messrs. Parbury and Allen, and by all other Booksellers. Price 2/. 2s. bds. The plan of these tables is in itself simple and obvious. The degrees of Latitude from the Equator to 60 North and South, occupy a prominent situation at the head of each page. The degrees of declination, from oto 24., run from left to right, on the top and bottom of the columns, and the Ain ides increase as they descend in the marginal column. The Horary Angles, standing opposite to 0, or Zero, in the Altitude column, show the apparent time to the nearest second that the Sun's centre is in the true or rational horizon; or the time of his Rising and Setting; or the semidiurnal arcs of any Celestial objects. Opposite to the true Altitudes (to the number of sixty in each page), and under and over the degrees of Declination, are the cor responding Horary Angles, or Apparent Times from Noon, computed to the nearest second. When the Meridian Al titude falls short of 60 degrees, the pages are kept full by the introduction of smaller portions of Altitudes, chiefly of 10 minutes eichl which enhances the value of the Tables, inasmucis as more freqUent opportunities are afforded, to obtain the time with ' the Unit possible trouble ; and thit, in general, when best adapted 'to the times . and cireuni stances when observations for . Time are most desirable. The Horary Tables thus computed (exclusively of 5S pages of subsidiary Tables, and 48 of prefatory matter and in structions) contain 232 pages, each page consisting of 13 columns, and each column of 61 library Angles, making a sum of not less than 191 thousand results, or computed numbers. The most scrupulous attention has been paid to the accuracy of the numbers. The computations were conducted by:two able persons, separated from each other, and . sorking by different methods, entirely independent of any former work of the kind. The operations were verified by comparison —before the pages went to press, they were twice read, and the differences afterwards taken to insure still greater accuracy, and the beautiful agreement of the results, }sear ample testimony to the care and skill of the Operators. The main original object of these Tables, was to find the Apparent Time from an Altitude of the Sun, or other Ce lestial object, in a known Latitude, and for which purpose they will be found extremely simple. But this convenience may be considered in a secondary point of view, in com parison of their utility in obtaining both Latitude and Time, independently of the Latitude by Account, at any hour of the day, after the Sun is 5 degrees high, or at any hour of the night, when the horizon is sufficiently defined to take the altitudes of the Stars. The method will be best shown by the following Example :—Admit a ship to be entering the British Channel, on a day when the Sun's declination is 20 deg. South. and in the morning at 8 h. 0 in. 1-0 sec. by a good watch or chronometer, let the Sun's true alti tude be 5 degrees--and again at Sh. 42 in., 36 sec., by the same watch, let the Sun's true altitude be 10 degrees. —Required the Latitude and Apparent Time at the last observation? N.B. in this Example the ship is supposed to be stationary. If otherwise, the first altitude must be corrected for the change of station, as in the common method of double altitudes. OPERATION. S.

THEN TO FIND THE TIME. Let the difference bet; eenL --- and N. be P, which is equal to 6 m. 49 sec. under which in Table Z, and oppo site to 29, the minutes of latitude already found, is 3 in. 17 sec. 7—say 3 m. 18 sec. which being subtracted from L, because Nis less than L, gives 2 h. 58 m. 53 sec. the Apparent Time required, and hence the rongitude by chro nometer. RIMARIE9.-1. The results both of latitude and time, by the above process and correct dsta, will always be dose approximations to truth, and sufficiently so for nautical purposes—if great accuracy be required, it is only to as sume another latitude, nearer to the latitude last found, and compute the interval, until there be no difference be tween the observed and the computed intervals, which re quiring no new problem to solve, show the utility and beauty of this approximate method—for which, and for others equally valuable, the reader is referred to the Work itself. 2.

DEATILBED SCENES, and PASTO RAL CONVERSATIONS. By the late JOHN WARTON, D.D. " It has often occurred to me as something wonderful, that, amongst the variety of books which are to he met with, on the important subject of Religion, there should still be wanted a manual for the information and direction of the Minister in his daily intercourse with sick persons and other members of his flock. " Having been in the habit then, for several years, of remarking this defect of instruction with regard to practiCal divinity, and the whole, business. of.s,.. : Parish. Priest, and having myself meanwhile been thrown,perpetually into,the most interesting and awful scenes with my own Parishion. ers, I determined at length, to,take up my pen, and to com mit to paper Whatever,. having passed under my personal observation, might be most likely to be useful to others el the same profession. " I had no thought originally of doing more than assist my younger brethren of the clerical order, who might be appointed to the management of large parishes, without time or opportunities to prepare themselves in an adequate manner for so difficult and momentous an undertaking. But, in proceeding with my work, I began to flatter myself with the notion, that it may .possibly both amuse and in,. struct every description of readers—many persons may be tempted, upon the recommendation of the Clergy, ; to peruse the book ; and may find unexpectedly their fancy pleased, their knowledge increased, and their hearts touched and improved."—Preface. .

GLOUCESTER, MONDAY, APRIL 16. CROWN SIDE. Michael Wadley wa s indicted for violating, on the 24th of March last, Comfort Holder, at Maisemore, near Gloucester. The prisoner was acquitted. William Scrivens was indicted for assaulting Mar garet Cole, on the 17th of February, at Blaisdon, with a felonious intent. Margaret Cole—l was sent out at six o'clock in the evening to Mr. Morgan's, a mile off, to get some oil. As I was returning, Scrivens came up to Me, and asked me what I had lot in my basket ; I made him no answer; he stopped me ; ; I begged him to let me go forward, and he kept before me until, I came up to a path leading from the road towards a wood; he then caught me round the waist, and lifteci me tip; I struggled and struck him with the bottle in his face two or three times, mid knocked his hat off; he said,•" Hold your tongue, I am not going to hurt you;" he then lifted me off my feet, and carried meinto the wood; I kept striking him, but he forced me down, and suddenly he ran away, ; I did not hear any body; I was very much frightened; when I- rose, I saw William. and Thonias Reynolds; they asked me what he had been at ? I told them he was a nasty, good-for-nothing rascal. I had never given Scrivens leave to take any liberties with me ; he wanted to tice me with him about half-a year before, bin I would not have any thing to do with him. William Reynolds.--I was walking with my son along the road, and saw a hat in the path, not far from the wood. I saw Scrivens come out. I had known him for some years before. We 'went up, and found the girl about eight or nine feet from the bank. I said, " What have you been doing with the girl ?" He answered something, which I did not snake out. I have known the girl ever since she was born; she seemed very much-frightened. I asked her about kini 5 she said she was very glad we came up. She was all of a tremble ; her voice was very . low. She said, he (Scrivens) was an impu dent dog, and ought to be ashamed of himself. Thomasßeynolds confirmed his father's statement. I took her safe home. - Mrs. Cole.—When my daughter came home, she was very much frightened, and her arm was bleeding. The Jury immediately found the defendant Guilty. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN.—This is a most atrocious offence. No one that has heard the prosecutrix's story, and has observed the very proper and modest manner in which she gave her evidence, can doubt for a moment. The sentence of the Court is, that you be imprisoned in the Penitentiary two years, and kept to hard labour. John Morgan, a gentlemanly-looking man, was indicted for feloniously assaulting Thomas Smith, on the 7th of December, near Stokes Croft, Bristol, and stealing from his person .50/. in Bank notes.— He had been bailed, and surrendered' to take his trial. Mr. HortacE Twiss stated that Smith Was 'a far mer, living at Henbury, and was in. the habit of at tending the market at Bristol. On the 7th. 'of December he went to Bristol, put 'up his horse at the Black Horse, Stokes Croft, and went to tho market, where he sold some sheep and two beasts, for 54/. to a Mr. Hunt, who paid him with one 20/. one 101., and five 51. Bank of England notes, he giving Mr. Hunt one pound in change. Smith put the notes in his pocket book, which he carried in an, inside coat pocket, and afterwards went to tin Blackball Tavern, Bristol, where he passed the re mainder of the day with a friend of the name, of Webb, until ten o'clock, when he paid the reckon ing with one of the .5/. notes, and took four 1/. notes and some silver in change. Webb and he went out of the house together, and parted, he setting out towards the Black Horse Inn, for his horse. In his way, there, however, he met a young woman, whom he treated with drink in a liquor-shop, where he pulled out, but did not open his pocket book, an from thence he proceeded to the Black Horie Inn; but thinking it prudent to put the money in his fob, he retired into a lane, at a small distance from Stokes Croft, and close to the inn, and there took fifty pounds of the notes he bad, out of his pocket book, when suddenly a person Wh o m he (M r . Horace Twiss) was instructed was the prisoner, made a snatch, and seized the notes from him. He caught hold of the person, but by the biting of a dog, was forced to lose his hold, and fell down. He. however, immediately got up, and, without losing sight of the man, ran after and caught him, and dragged him to the door of the Black Horse Inn, where they went in together, and he desired a constable to be fetched ; but the landlord, Mr. Wagg, interposed many obstacles to the apprehension of the prisoner, until finding Smith resolved to have him taken in custody, he did at last direct a constable to be sent for, but, in the mean time began searching the pri soner himself, in such a manner as, by the interpo sition of his body, to prevent the prosecutor seeing what was doing, and he finished his pretended search by the time that Meredith, the constable, came in, who re-searched the prisoner, but, as might be supposed, did not succeed in finding any thing upon him. The prosect• t: , r was most positive that the prisoner was the man who snatched the notes, which he had never seen since. Thomas Smith, the prosecutor, proved that he had received the 541. as stated in the opening. 1 left Webb at 10 o'clock to go to the Black Horse inn, Strokes Croft, out of the city bounds, for my horse. There was a young woman at the corner of Nicholas-street, she asked me to treat her with a glass, and two sailors by said I might as well treat t r.: th W e Bhelan i was a little up the lane , I took out my pocket-b oo k , and from it took fifty pounds out in 'not es t o put cl the g co p rn as e water. I proceeded directly to Stokes Croft, arte, with. h em a glass'e went api to a liquor-shop ece,aadh and I had daiyself sometre treat ed t e g n andthem my fob, when they were snatched out o; Horse.went There e l r a e n lan e,, was thea lamp first turnin g r m ll tbem yehwaainisd)t.c°oming to wards rn m a e n a l p vi p t a h ren in t y ly I caught the le d ft e h w a a nd ria l an e, and-had a bull terrier dog with him, who got between my feet biting at my legs. I loosened my hold and fell upon my hands and knees, and the man ran as fast as he could to Stokes Croft. I fol lowed, and without losing sight, overtook him at Wagg's' doo,r, which was shut, but was very soon opened, and we both went in. We neither of us had our eilats. Wagg opened the door. I said, " This is the man that has robbed mei" and laid hold of the prisoner, and would have beat him, but was prevented. Cross-examined.--It was nearly two o' c l oc k at when ten . I wletnototko the e e m Blackball ans o that I andb believe he it he had not time to put the notes is his pocket. The prisoner did not knock at Wagg's- door; I pushed him against it. I had seen. Morgan several times in Bristol. Wagg has kept that house many years; I had frequented it two or three years. I had refused to discount a bill for.him. , This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. LUDLOW submitted that even allowing all the facts to be true, they did not constittite ,highway robbery, but Mr. Baron VAUGHAN directed the case to go on. Mr. LUDLOW called .Joseph Chappell, landlord of the Blackhall Tavern. Webb and Smith left ut, at five minutes before ten o'clock. Smith was in toxicated—about three parts drunk. Michael W a gg.—_l am forty. I have kept the Black Horse;for :15 y ears . Smith h as f re q u e n t e d mv house four-or five years. His horse was at my stables on Thursday. I heard a noise first and thei • • n • t .. .a rush,cand,so openeclAe.door.. *W.

The - z",*ateittnan came within ten minute s . - I .went out 'to-41)4 for the hats. Smith .taid Morgan " would , give hint the money, as. he was a respectable man,-he might go, and he Smith, would, say nothing about it. I said, aftei such a charge he should not go, Two hats were found, three parts up the line. Smith was - very violent, pulled off his coat, and wanted to fight Morgan. I did not search Morgan, he pulled out his own ,pockets, and one pocket I thought he did not pull entirely out, and I made him chi so, but there was nothing in it. I have known hi m for many years as a respectable silversmith in Bristol. George Thorne, the watch Man—l was in my box when Wagg sent. for me; I went into the parlour; Smith was veryinuch intoxicated. - Meredith, a night.conitable.—l,searehed Morgan thoroughly, but found nothing of the prosecutor's on him. `. Jine Guelt-- - -I met the prisoner in Sti!ke's Croft, on the Thursday night; we . went up 'the ,lane to gether; .the .lane leads to Mother Pugley's fields; whilst, we...were there a man ran very quickly by us towards: - the field; Morgan's dog barked at .him ; shortly.afterwarda siman.setsed Morgan by the. coat ; I thought it was one of the constables, and walked slowly up the lane into •Stoke's-croft, and up the croft; lam quite' certain I saw a man running to wards the field While I was with Morgan.- Yive very respectable tradesmen of Bristol gave Morgan - an exceeding good character. Mr. Baron was proceeding to sum up,' and was Olisiving upbn the very respectable wit nesses who had given the prisoner so good a charac ter, and said, " There is no evidence that will jus tify you," when Mr. Twiss said, the prosecutor now felt he must have been mistaken in the man, and relinquished the prosecution. Mr. Baron VAUGNIN—This is the handsomest thing - he can do. The priiOner was irry prisons.. —attely aegnittedand dis charged, inid,Went, to his friends. The trial excited great interest, from the respectability.of the party. COUGH "ti. PARR. - Mr. PHILPOTS stated that this was an action for a breach of promise of marriage. Mr. C. PHILLIPS said, that ,the .young lady was , the daughter of a dissentintAergyman of the highest respectability. Her brother, whe would be called as a witness, was a Clergyman of the Church of England. Mr. Gough, sen . had, it would ap pear, educated a relative of the defendant, who was one of a firm of very eminent silversmiths at Bris tol. They, were engaged extensively in a very lu cratiVe trade. It would appeir that in the spring of last year, Miss Gough, who was a lady highly in teresting and accomplished, went on a visit to Bris tol, and there an attachment, which appeared to he mutual, grew up. Mr. Farr was a man of good education, and of a time of life when he could not plead the fickleness of youth. He was between 30 and 40,- and had been previously married. Miss Gough, on one occasion had visited her brother, in Company with Mr. Farr; and on• this occasion,:her brother, with proper feeling to both parties, asked him his intentions, when Mr. Farr stated • what his intentions were, and asked Alr. Gough to perform the •cerewony, and pointed , out 'the Church at which he wished ceremony performed this' would . be c l iseifiitk by Mr. qough, - and if thatgentlernan required'cerroboration, which he certainly die not, lattereof the defendant, would be produced, which would show what .the • defendant's intentions were. These letters. would' be material, as he had heard- that-Mr. Farr, who was a widower, was to plead that the first advances came from the lady herself whether that were so he, cared not, for'he should show b y t h e l etters,o f Mr. Farr what his opinion of the young lay. Was stud these letters were written, too, at a time when Mr. Farr would have the Jury suppose he was disgusted. Miss Gough had had an intention of becoming a governess, but this she gave up at the defendant's desire. In July Mr. Gough observed a secret me lancholy which was nourished by his daughtl ir, andelekre applied to her to know the cause,..sarn,, v i m __ g . tamed it, he wrote to the 4gendant to request an explanation, which the defendant, however, never condescended to give. But at length, when Mr. Gough found his daughter's' health declining, and her spirits gone, he went himself to 'Mr. Farr; and all the explanation Mr... Fem then chose t o g i ve was, that he would not marry Mita Gough. Miss Gough had suffered deeply, and he would ask the Jury to award her damages in proportion AS she had suffered. Mr. Joseph Hall—l am a cabinet-maker at Bris tol.' I know the' defendant and his father. They are jewellers and silvermiths: The firm is, " Thos. Farr and Son." These letters are of the defend ant's handwriting. ledi&t@l' The Rev. Hensil Gough said—l live at Aust, 11 miles from Bristol. I am a clergyman of the Church of England. I have. known the defendant for eight or ten years. I take a few pupils ; a brother of the. defendant was one of them.. In the spring , of 1826 tile defendant came with my sister to Aust. In consequence of!zny observing his conduct, I said I wished to.know what his intentions were towards my sister. .He replied that he was glad that I had given him an opportunity of declaring his honour able intentions towards her. Something was said about residing with me for a month, and at the ex piratiou of that time he intimated an intention marrying her. I was to have performed the' ee re .. monv and he said he should' wish to be Married iu my church. I said, I, iihould.be happy to perform' the ceremony. (Mr. Oeugb,' &tun the extreme heat of the Court. was near fainting, and was obliged to be assisted out id Court.) . Th e Rev. James Gough —I am a Dissenting lergyman.

" In July la s t I o b se r ved my. daughter labouring under and a depression of spirits and an absence of recollection to an alarming degree; and in consequence of what' she told me, I wrote a letter to Mr. Farr. This is it. The letter was read. It was as follow -5 : Sir,—l understard, by my daughter, that in this month your marriage with her was to take place ; and, finding that there has been an unaccountable silence on your part for the last few weeks, and strange conduct shown her by you in her last interview, I send these few lines to request an explanation ; and you will oblige me by an early an swer.
