FOR RELIEVIND , HEARTBURN, FLATULENCE, INDI GESTIO/4, GOUTY AFFECTIONS, AND GIVING TONE TO THE tiTOMA6II. OF ♦ all the recent discpveri e s i n V ege t a bl e Chemistry, none has been received by the Faculty with more satisfaction than that produced by the French Chemists, from Peruvian Bark. The Sulphate of Quinine is found to possess all the lonic and febrifuge properties of the Peruvian Bark, in a concen trated state, deprived of the extractive and resinous matter. —lt is thus evident, that in debilitated Stomachs, arising from whatever cause, no Medicine can be more desirable. In the formula from which these Lozenges are prepared, the Sulphate of Quinine forms the chief ingredient ; but, that the effects may be more adapted to the object for which they are intended, it is combined in such propor tions with mild Absorbents, Anti-acids, and agreeable Aromatics, as to render them applicable to every Stomach labouring under loss of tone.

DESIRABLE ESTATE, WITH A FREEHOLD QUALIFICATION. The Estate of TEANINICH will be exposed to Sale in the month of SEPTEMBER next, on a day to be afterwards named, within the Royal Exchange Coffee-house, Edin burgh, if not previously di s p ose d o f by p r i va t e b arga i n . THE Estate is mostly situated on the shore of the Cromarty Frith, in the most improved and beautiful district of the County, surrounded by the richest and most diversified scenery, and combining advantages for residence and improvement not surpassed in the High lands of Scotland. It is intersected by the Mail-road, at nearly equal distances from Dingwall and Tain, and hounded on the east for a considerable way by the River Alness, and on the west by the Lands of Novar. It has a southern exposure, and consists of rich Arable Land, pro ducing early and abundant returns of Wheat, Barley, and other crops, and the Salmon Fishings as productive. About four miles north of the Low Country Estate, is situated Hill Grazing Kenlochanastrone, which to both the Agriculturist and the Sportsman, forms a very desirable appendage. The Lakes and Rivers on it abound with Char and Trout, and the hills with Grouse. The greatest part of the property is in the natural pos session of the Proprietor, in the highest state of cultiva tion, and enclosed with substantial stone dykes and hedges, interspersed with clumps and beltings of plantations. The Mansion House is spacious, recently built, comprising four public rooms, 26 feet by Is, and 20 feet by 18 ; twelve Bed-rooms, some having dressing-closets attached ; Shower, Hot, and Steam Baths, with abundant supply of water and other conveniences, with servants' accommodation and cellar age, and contiguous are Wash, Laundry, Dairy, and Brew houses, supplied with water; also an Ice-house. A delightful Shrubbery connects with the Garden and Hothouse, which are surrounded by a high wall, and for an abundant supply of choice and early fruits are not surpassed by any in the county. The Farm-offices consist of Coach-house, Sta bling, Thrashing, and Meal-miins by water, and every ne cessary convenience, besides a large Store-house at the sea shore. There is also connected with the Mains Farm a Distillery on an extensive scale, with Miting-barns and Kilns, capable of malting 1,500 bushels a-week, and could be extended at a small expense ; the water is abundantly supplied, and rises to the height of the coolers ; an excel lent Malt-miln, with machinery for pumping, and au ex tensive Peat-moss belonging to the property. The Dis tillery being detached, could be separately let. The thriv ing and rapidly extending village of pridge-end is partly built on the Estate, and having an inexhaustible Quarry of excellent Freestone adjoining, cannot fail of adding pro gressively to the value of the property. The Estate is now under survey, and is supposed to -'on tabs about 3,000 imperial Acres, of which 567 are Am de, and 177 Planted Wood, 130 of the Plantations are up• wards of 25 years old, and all very thriving. The present gross rental of the whole is estimated above 1,091/. ster ling, besides what will continue to be obtained from the thinning of the woods, and without any rent put down for the Mansion-house and Distillery, for both of which, with the garden, lawn, and suitable offices, there is no doubt that 3501. can be got. The Grouse Shooting could also be let at 201. or 301., but is not charged. Plans of the Estate to be seen with (when the Survey is concluded) and farther particulars known, by applying to the Proprietor, Captain Munro, Teaninich, by Evanton ; or to Robert Logan, Esq.

NORFOLK CIRCUIT, NORWICH, AuG. 10. The following trial excited a very general interest throughout the county, and the Court was crowded at an early hour this morning, FENTON, GENT. V. THURTELE, ESQ. Mr. SIDNEY TAYLOR said, this action had been brought by Mr. Francis Tarrant Fenton, a solicitor, residing in London, against Thomas Thurtell, Esq., an Alderman of this city, to recover 4001., the amount of the costs incurred by him in the defence of John Thurtell, the son of the defendant. There was a count for work and labour, and the usual money counts. Mr. Sergeant STORKES said this action was brought to recover from the father of that extraordinary and ill-fated young man, John Thurtell, the amount of the plaintiff's bill of costs, incurred in defending the son ; and whether it was wise in the defendant to resist the claim—or whether it would not have been more considerate that he should not have compelled the plaintiff to bring again before the public facts which he should have conceived the defendant would have been anxious to have buried in oblivion, the issue of the trial would show. It would be proved, that when John Thurtell was charged with the murder of which he was afterwards convicted, the present defendant and two of his friends entered into some negociation with Mr. Jay, a solicitor at Norwich, for the purpose of employing a London attorney. It could not be imagined that a father would be dead to the feelings of a parent, and stand aloof on such an occasion. Mr. Jay proceeded to London, in consequence of an arrangement with the defendant and his two friends, and the plaintiff was employed. The two gentlemen he alluded to were Mr. Unthanke, an attorney of Norwich, and Mr. Alderman Bolingbroke ; and at a meeting with Mr. Jay, they said that 10!. were quite sufficient to pay for John Thurtell's defence. How Mr. Unthanke, an attorney, could think so, was surprising. Mr. Fenton was no party to that conversation, and it was quite preposterous and absurd to say that a case of that description could be defended for so small a sum as 10/.; they might as well have mentioned the smallest coin in the realm. When Mr. Fenton was first applied to, nothing was said to him by Mr. Jay, that the defendant would not be pledged to pay more than 10/., and the plaintiff immediately pro ceeded in preparing the defence of John Thurtell. Some of the Magistrates of Hertford having refused Mr. Fenton admission to the gaol, to see his client, he found it necessary to apply to the King's Bench for a mandamus, as he could be of no service N the unhappy prisoner unless he had a personal communi cation with him. The Court of King's Bench granted the mandamus, and the expence of the ap plication formed part of the claim which the plaintiff sought to recover by this action. The news papers at that time published expartc state ments, not calculated to create the best effects as regarded the prisoner; and Mr. Fenton, as the legal guardian of his client's interests, applied to the Court of King's Bench for criminal informations against the proprietors and publishers of several papers. The costs of these proceedings were very large; but Mr. Fenton asked for no more than the bare expences he had been put LO, and required no thing for his time and professional services. He had performed his work faithfully, and the charges were fair professional charges. Upon an application being made to the defendant for payment of the plaintiff's bill, he said that he had not employed the plaintiff about the mandamus or the criminal informations. Part of the 400/. the plaintiff admitted to have re ceived from different sources, and the Jury, after hearing the evidence, would say what further sum he was entitled to. Mr. John Muuday--I am a solicitor of Norwich; the plaintiff was my agent in London; I tooka copy of the plaintiff's bill to the defendant, and also a letter from the plaintiff, in June, 1825; the letter produced is a copy. If I did not read the letter, I acquainted the defendant with the substance ; I be lieve the Alderman read the letter, or I read it to him ; it was dated June 23, 1825. Cross-examined by Mr. KELLY —A conversation took place between me and the Alderman, and I told hildthat if he would pay the expences which • Mr. Fenton had incurred in defending his son, he would forego his charges for loss of time. The letter which is as follows, was then read : " Dear Sir—l regret exceedingly that Alderman Thurtell should compel me to take measures for the re covery of my bill, which are to me equally unusual and un pleasant. I took up the case merely as matter of business, .and although I naturally, during its progress, felt a strong interest in my unfortunate client, yet, I must confess it would be matter of sorrow to me to have my name again coupled in a Court of Justice with that he bore ; yet jus tice to myself and family requires it. 1 feel sincerely for his father, and would willingly snake a sacrifice of the time devoted to the defence of Mr. John Thurtell (which I could ill spare at the period) if the Alderman would reimburse me my actual expenditure. lam happy in the reflection that my services were of a value to my client, which can not be estimated by any earthly criteria; the Alderman, as a reflecting man and a father, would be gratified on learning that the respite obtained after the first, Assize.% was employed, not more in endeavouring to protract his son's existence in this world than in preparing him for another. Many were the hours of serious conversation I had with him, and I have since sincere pleasure in the belief that it was not mis-spent. I occasionally found him in• his cell ardently engaged in devotion : this is a fact known only to myself, because John Thurtell, with a feeling very com mon, but not the less unaccountable, was ashamed of my mentioning it. This surely was an end worth obtaining, even at the expellee occasioned by the pbstponernent of the trial. If, however, the Alderman should stilt ,resist my claim, pray wait on him for the name of his attorney, as I should be sorry to put him to any personal inconve nience, " I am, dear Sir, faithfully, yours, " London, June, 1825. " FRANCIS T. FENTON." Witness re-examined by Mr. TAYLOR—The de fendant said that an interview had taken place be tween Mr. Jay, Mr. Unthanke, and Mr. Alderman Bolingbroke, who were of opinion that 10/. would be sufficient; he had paid that sum, and he would pay no more ; he said that if a' shilling would dis charge Mr. Fenton's bill he would not pay it; he did not say any thing about the mandamus or the criminal informations. Mr. Jay—l am an attorney at Norwich ; I was pressed to undertake the defence of John Thurtell; I had meetings with the defendant on the subject; the first was in October, 1823 ; I called upon the Alderman to know if he would defray the ,expence of his son's defence, and he replied that he should leave it to his friends; I afterwards met Mr. Un thanke and Alderman Bolingbroke at the defend ant's house, and the defendant appeared not dis posed to go to any great expence ; I called in two or three days afterwards to know to what extent the defendant would go • I saw Mr. Unthanke and Mr. Bolingbroke, and they said they should not ad vise the defendant to go beyond . 101.; I went to London and saw the plaintiff; and communicated with him on the subject of the defence, and the plaintiff was employed to conduct the defence; the charges in hii bill are fair and professional. By Mr. F. KELLY---I remember that Mr. Alder man Thurtell said, if I could pledge myself as to my belief of his son's innocence, he would stop at no ex pence ; I did not so pledge myself; at all the inter views with the defendant and his friends the expence of the defence was limited to 101., which had been paid. The 101. was to be paid to Counsel for cross examining witnesses. The LORD CHIEF BARON said, that there was not evidence to go to the Jury, proving the defendant's liability to pay the claim. Plaintiff nonsuited. MIDLAND CIRCITIT.—DERBY, Auc, 11. John Burns was indicted for feloniously assaulting Caroline Anne Hinde, at the parish of Chesterfield, in this county, and there, against her consent, ravish ing her. The trial was one which excited extreme interest, from the respectability of the friends of the prose cutrix, and her alleged youth. It was stated that she had only reached her twelfth year in October. The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Clarke, sen., and Mr. Reader and Mr. Balguy ; and Mr. Clinton ap peared for the prisoner. Caroline Anne Hinde was called, but her ap pearance would have induced us to suppose that she had reached, at least, her eighteenth year. She was examined by Mr. Reader, and gave the following ac count of the transaction in question, and of hea own conduct :—" I am not yet thirteen years of age ; I remember the lit of May last ; I was returning from school, and in approaching a stile, over which it was necessary for me to pass, I met the prisoner; he was, in the first instance, walking towards me, but he returned, and remained close to the stile; when I had just got over the stile he pulled me towards hi m ; he pulled me down on the grass, and in that way he held me for five minutes; I struggled to get away, but he held me and I could not get away from him ; he then threw me down, and proceeded to ac complish his purpose. (Witness described what had passed, so as to prove the c om pl e ti on o f th e cr i me charged m the Indictment.] Wh en I re ached h ome I ran up stair and told the servant what had oc curred." Cross-examined by Air. BALGUY—He remained about ten minutes, and then I pushed him from me; when he had continued about seven minutes, I asked him how much longer he intended to remain ? he said, three or four minutes; I began to count, and counted three sixties, and then I pushed him off; I ran home all the way, and went to bed. The sur geon did not come until about eleven o'clock; this happened about six. The servant corroborated this statement. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. The prisoner, on the application of Mr. CLARKE, was detained on a charge of misdemeanour. JESSINGTON V. SIR. JAMES MACKINTOSH AND OTHERS. In this case the defendants, who were the mem bers of the Derbyshire Mining Association, had suffered judgment to go by default in an action commenced by the plaintiff for services rendered, shares of mines sold, and other expenses incurred by him as their agent. The plaintiff in this case was a mining agent; he sought to recover 500/. for services rendered, and some shares sold to the defendants. Mr. Ogle, the - laie - SecretaryOf the Company, was present when the plaintiff was engaged by Mr. Alsop and Mr. Pigou, two of the Directors of the Company. They expressed themselves quite satis fied with his services, and agreed subsequently that he should have a salary, commencing in January, 1825, of 250/. a year. He knew also that upon the business of the Society the plaintiff had been summoned to London, and continued there for a month, for which he thought the sum of 50/. was not an unreasonable charge. He (the secretary) had paid his expenses to London. A document, purporting to be the conveyance of certain shares from the plaintiff to the defendants, was then put in. The shares were sold at 2604 This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. DENMAN was relieved from the necessity of making any observations upon the character of Sir James Mackintosh, by the admission of his Learned Friend, that Sir James's conduct throughout this transaction was in perfect accordance with the esti mation in which his public talents were universally held. It was perfectly true that the defendant, whom he was proud to call his friend, was exceed ingly anxious that this, as well as all other claims, should have been satisfied without the intervention of a Court of Law. But so monstrous had the claims of various parties risen, in proportion, in fact, to the readiness of the proprietors of this unhappy scheme to'liquidate them, that it was thought more advisable, to ascertain the fair and just sums to which claimants were entitled. Now he must say, that for such a person as Mr. Jessington was described to be, 250/. a-year was a liberal remune• ration. Beside which he was to have 501. for s month in London, a sum he was quite sure the Jury would never think of allowing him ; and as to those pretended shares,' he contended that there was not the least evidence to satisfy the Jury—first, that they were worth the sum claimed for them ; and, secondly that they have been sold. Mr. L. WILLIAMS, for the other defendants, said that the , gentlemen for whom he appeared, were equally anxious with Sir James Mackintosh to meet the just claiins of all parties who had suffered from a connexion with this Association. They would, he felt assured, make no allowance to this plaintiff be yond what they thought he had strictly established; and to their verdict the defendants, whom he repre sented, were ready to assent, in the full assurance that iemust be governed by their sense of justice. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 350/. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK, Ava. 9. BAT.AtE AND OTHERS HUTTON AND OTHERS.. This was an action of trover, in which the plain tiffs, who are assignees of Messsrs.. Blancart and Benson, late woolspinners of Bowling, near Brad ford, sought to recover against the several defendants the value of certain machinery taken in execution after an act of bankruptcy. Verdict for the plaintiffs—Damages 9641. FRIDAY, AUGUST 10. SHAW V. WALSHAW AND ANOTHER. This was an action of assault and battery. The . plaintiff, with the two defendants, John and Jo nathan Walshaw, farmers at Pennystone, were re-' turning from Church on Sunday the 20th of Mar . last, when a quarrel arose between John Shaw, the . son of the plaintiff, and Job, the son of Jonathan . Walshaw„ and it was proposed that the two, young men should fight upon the spot ; but - afterlome al- . tercation they agreed to fight the next ~• and . appointed a place. The parties came ingly, and the plaintiff brought a large stick with him.— The two men fought in the manner called " up and down," that is to say, they used their feet as well as their hands, and did not care where they struckor kicked eachother. In the middle of the combat. Jonathan Walshaw .asked the plaintiff what he brought the stick for, and what he meant to do with it. Some altercation passed between them, and John Walshaw struck the plaintiff violently; whilst Jonathan, coming behind him, kicked him with so much force on the hinder part of the leg, as to fill his shoe with blood. The plaintiff's witnesses swore that the plaintiff gave no provocation, and did not use his stick against the defendants. It was also proved that the defendants had offered the plaintiff 251. to settle the affair. Mr. BROUGHAM, for the defendants, submitted that the plaintiff had brought the stick with him for no good purpose, and he would show that it had been used offensively towards them before they had ill-treated him. Mr. BROUGHAM called witnesses accordingly, but they failed in establishing his point. Mr. Justice BAYLEY said he had had too frequent occasion to comment upon the savage, cowardly, and dangerous mode of fighting adopted in a part of this and the whole of the adjoining county (Lanca shire), called " up and down ;" and as that mode of fighting had been used, he was not sorry that the action had been brought, as it gave him another opportunity of stating his deliberate opinion upon such a brutal practice. He wished ,itto be gene rally known throughout both counties, that if life were destroyed on such occasions, he -would visit all parties convicted before him with the utmost penalty of the law. If found guilty of murder, they would undergo the penalty attached to it; and if convicted of manslaughter, he would sentence them to trans portation for life. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 5/. WESTERN CIRCUIT..—EXETER, Auc. 10. LEV/ V. BAKER. This was an action brought by a jeweller anti pawnbroker, to recover from the defendant, a gentle man of fortune, against whom a writ of lunacy had been lately taken out, the sum of 7631. balance of ac count for goods delivered. Mr. Sergeant WILDE stated, that of the sum for which the action was brought, two hundred was claimed for an unpaid cheque of the defendant on his banker, and the remainder for balance of account on goods delivered. In August last the defendant, passing through Exeter, was struck by some article in the shop window of the plaintiff, and went into the shop for the purpose of purchasing it. The article amounted to 201., but during his examination of it, he was also pleased with some other pieces of jewellery, which he also bought, to the extent of 80/., for which he gave his cheque on the instant. His demeanour was that of a gentleman of fortune. He entered into conversation with the plaintiff, and told him that he had taken a house at Sidmouth, and that he would want plate and a variety of ar ticles for it. Levi professed his desire to serve him. Soon after Levi went to the bank to receive money for his cheque, and met there a Mr. Marsh, a library keeper at Sidmouth, who observed to him what a good customer he had got, and proceeded to tell him that Mr. Baker was in re ality a gentleman of fortune, recently settled at Sid mouth. While thus engaged Mr. Baker himself came into the bank, and on seeing Levi and Marsh together, said that he was much pleased with what he had bought of the former, and that he intended to have further dealings with him. On the follow ing day, Thursday, Mr. Baker again came to the plaintiff's shop, and made further purchases from Levi ; and the plaintiff accompanied him to the banker's, to make some arrangement with them for the defendant's remittances, as by some misunder standing they had refused one of the cheques. The following day, Saturday, the plaintiff's shop was closed, he being a Jew, but after sun-set Mr. Baker called at his house, and told him that he wanted to exchange some old plate for new. Further con versation took place, in the course of which Mr. Baker asked the plaintiff if lie would advance hint some motley ? to which the plaintiff, having the ut most confidence in all that he had seen of the de fendant, or heard of him from Mr. Marsh, agreed to lend him 100/., but Mr. Baker saying he had occa sion for 2001. more, the plaintiff procured it for him from his father, and gave him the whole sum of 600/. in eight 50/. notes, and 200 sovereigns. For this the defendant gave him bills on his banker at Worcester for 4001., and a cheque on his banker at Exeter for 2001. The plaintiff went to Worcester on the following day, to receive the bills for 400/., but the cheque for 2001. remained unpaid to this day, the, banker having refused to honour it. On the Monday following that. transaction, Mr. Baker came to the plaintiff's shop to order more goods, but it being observed that his head was affected with wine, though it was in the morning, it was deemed pru dent not to give him any further credit, and the articles he selected were not delivered. Since that time-no other transaction had taken place between the parties. The defence which would probably be taken to the action was, that Mr. Baker was labouring under insanity about the time of the payment of the money and purchase of the goods. Probably he might have been so, and cir cumstances which occurred since had rendered it more than probable that he was. But, the question for the Jury was, had the plaintiff notice of the state of his mind, or did the defendant exhibit before him any of that extravagance and incoherence which it 1 .4. ~ . - —0.:::-.• ,. , .' ...c.k" • ~ ~ , 4, . ., * *l..

The balance due on both he claimed at the hands of the Jury. The following evidence was then called on behalf of the plaintiff: — The delivery of the goods, to the amount of 801., was admitted, but the question of their value was reserved. Mary Ellis, a servant of the plaintiff, deposed that, on giving the order, the deportment of the de fendant was the same as that of any other ge n t leman. Mr. John Marsh, a library eeper at S i d m o uth, said that the defendant came to hi( ;.Dose on the 3d )c of August, and inquired the name of a hi:4: maste,, r for his daughter. The defendant lived nu gt;:u style, with close carriage and a gig. His son and daughter were with him--the latter was nearly of age. Went with the defendant to Sid Cliff, a place of Mr. Bacon's, then on sale. The defendant looked at the property, , and made-the observatious.of a sen sible and rational. mart.. Came with him:on' the 15th of August to 'Exeter, and .saw -him next morning at breakfast. Defendant . showed him a razor handle, containing six blades and a chronometer, which he said he bought from Mr. Levi. He said he bought the watch under 1001., though its .original cost was more than that sum. Baker gave the witness a cheque for 231., observing, on showing his cheque book, what importance it was to save money by paying ready money. Saw entry, at the same time, of a cheque to Mr. Levi. The defendant Leowed him a bill on Gloucester for 200/. asking him where he could get cash for it. Witness brought him to a banker, when the bill was cashed and an account opened. Witness thought Baker an eccentric man, but one not of unsound intellect. Had very little dealing with him. Advanced seven piunds in the presence of the solicitor to take his chill to school: Cross-examined—The daughter of the witness went to live with Miss; Baker as a, companion. A few days after, the defendant called on him at the library at Sidmouth. She returned hoMe in ten days after. Mr. Baker became insane about that time. Did not acquaint Mr. Levi or his solicitor that his daughter lived with Miss Baker. Intro duced Mr. Baker to a Mr. Tucker, for the purpose of seeing some curious anatomical preparation. Mr. Baker asked the price of it. Tucker said it cost 5001. and declared that he would not sell it for less. Baker took Mr. Tucker and his daughter and the witness to Sidmouth in his carriage. Baker drove Miss Tucker on the box, and made the coachman sit behind the carriage. Does not know whether Levi and his wife visit respectable families at Exeter or not. On another occasion Baker drove witness to a house of bad fame. Baker went into the house, and witness remained in the carriage at the door. Baker on another occasion mounted his horse to show its paces to Mr. and ma. Levi. The daughter of the witness remained with the daughter of Baker a week after Baker drove to houses of bad fame. She was protected by the cook, who W 3.3 a very steady woman. Miss Baker was of age, and wit ness's daughter was rather younger, The first time witness saw Mr. Baker, he said he was a very odd character. After Mr. Baker was taken ill, witness put all his valuable things out of the way, that Mr. Baker should not see them. Joseph Levi, father of the plaintiff, has no interest in his concern ; dissolution of partnership between him and his son was gazetted in April 1826; lives next door but one to his son; saw Mr. Baker buy ing some things at his son's shop on the 16th of August; there were chains, seals, watches, and va rious articles of jewellery ; saw cheques lying on the counter; packed up a handsome table-clock, a book of the Duke of Wellington's wars, a pair of fire screens, and a royal saddle-cloth, which were all de livered to Mr. Baker at the London Inn, in the pee sence of Mr. Anstace, his attorney ; fetched 200 sovereigns by the desire of his son, when Mr. Baker was at his son's house in the evening; there were 400/. in notes on the table, and Mr. Baker said he would give a bill on the Worcester Bank for 500/. and an order at sight on the West of England Bank for 100/. ; went to look for a stamp, but could , only procure two stamps covering 2001. each. Mr. Baker then drew two bills for 2001. each on the Worcester Bank, and a cheque on the West of England Bank' for 2001. Baker took the money, counting the notes, and put them into his pocket. Levi's, son did not deliver any more goods to Mr. Baker. Baker came on the following Monday; he was rather wild, and witness thought him dr un k ; h e ca me in his carriage with two other persons. Cross-examined.--Mr. Baker came to the shop on the Monday, with women in his carriage. The women were women of the town. Observed by Mr. Baker's breath that he had been drinking wine. Mr. John Bacon recollects being introduced to Mr. Baker, at Mr. Marsh's, on the 16th of April. Mr. Baker had been to look at his house and estate previously. Discussed and negociated for that estate. Mr. Baker conducted himself in a manner tolerably collected, but a little peculiar. The price of the estate was its fair value. Mr. Anstace, Baker's attorney, came with him on a subsequent day. An agreement was made and executed for the sale of the - estate. Mr. Baker breakfasted with witness on the morning of that day. Prayers are always said be fore breakfast at the house of witness. When the bell was rung for that purpose, Mr. Baker offered to act as chaplain, and he did read prayers with per fect gravity and expression, to the admiration of every body present. He spoke on various subjects with judgment and propriety, and introduced vari ous quotations aptly, but there was some peculiarity in his manner. The idea of insanity never entered the witness's head. Cross-examined.—Mr. Baler breakfasted with the witness on the 19th, and a day previous he wanted to make some alteration in the house before the agree ment of sale was signed by the witness; but the wit ness forbade the workmen to make them. Bakes offered to purchase the estate of a Mr. Clarke for 6,000/. without having seen it. His conduct was extraordinary and precipitate. They went to the house of Mr. Townsend, and while waiting in the p re a s r t l l o e u s r s, B a n a d k calledc a r inused b for ms e r ee l f fr ,v s i h t hme quoting nts,seemed poetry v ery and fencing. Mr. Baker wanted to purchase some of the pictures of the house, but witness declined to part with them. Recommended him a stained glass window for 100/., which without seeing he requested the witness to order for him. Mr. Baker came to the house of the witness on the 22d, quite mad, rolling himself on the grass, ringing a bell. Had no transac tion with him after the 22d. The bill now pro duced he took from Mr. Baker on the 230,. knowing him to be insane. The bill was. drawn in pre sence of his daughter. Did, not draw the . bill, bUt directed the amount, Which consisted of, the price of the picture, the expence of bringing it,down. and a pound each., The painting was executed. by . witness, Mr. Backler, who was a tenant of the . and the painting was placed on his premises , ° I ! ° for him. fi i l l e e n r d e ly wa u s n l d v e n rs t ta d n u d e i ;loge b Mr. B e ac d k i ip sp r os: o d , t o h j e . witness s s i The contract entered'into on the preceding Satur day by Baker and the witness was abandoned.
