NEW ARGYLL TABLE LAMP. AGreat Improvement, upon the Common TABLE LAMP, is now offered for' SALE by SAMUF.T. PARKER, 12, Argyll-place, Bronzis.t.to his Majesty, and Tii.'icritor 'of the Sintimbra and other Lamps, for which a patent has been secured. The principal dif ference is caused by the light being below instead of above the oil,. by which .means the light falls unobstructed on the table. The unsightly apparatus for the oil and wick is concealed Within a frosted glass urn, fixed on the top of the pillar, and is taken away to trim the. lamp ; so that the trouble and , risk of carrying about the whole stand is divided. The trimming is very easily managed, and much less cleaning 'is required than in the common lamp. Its other advantages are—that no oil can possibly overflow upon the table ; that there is no danger of oiling the fingers when the light is regulated, that operation being effected by turning a glass above the light, instead of touching the part near the wick; and kit (but not least) .that.it is not dearer than the ordinary London-made table lamp, its ad vantages being produced by changes in construction, not by any expensive additions to the material. • Second Edition, 3 vols.

LEEDS LEATHER FAIR.—The first Leeds quarterly fair for the sale of this article, was held in our South Market, yesterday. The situation is the best that possibly could have been selected, • both from the great in ternal conveniences of the place, and also from its being so contiguous to the river, where purchasers may readily despatch their goods to r.n); 'part of the kingdom. Early in the morning the market-place was exceedingly full of leather of all deseriptions, indeed it was, perhaps, the largest show that has been seen out of London, and some say in the kingdom, at any one time, amongst which we saw some " prime stuff;" nor should we probably exaggerate in say-. ing that there was above 100,000/.. worth offered for sale. Many dealers were, of course, in attendance ; and also many buyers, some of whom had come from Bradford and Halifax, to which places, as well as Leeds and others, we should think it will be of great advantage. Every one present seemed to be in high spirits at the ap pearance of the fair, and wished success to the under taking.. The whole went off very . early considering the quantity, and fetched good prices. We are unable to pro cure the weight of leather sold, or the prices they brought, from the novelty of the business to the Clerk of the Market, who has not yet hit upon an expeditious method of making his calculation,—Leeds Intelligencer. :NINA-, OCTOBER 20, 1827 LAW INTELLIGENCE. WITT OF KING'S BENCH, OCT. 19 FROMONT 27. REILLY. .` • This cause was called, on, and none of the Special Jurymen appeared. Lord TENTERDEN sent for the summoning Officer, and citamined . him upon his oath as to the service of the summons, when it appeared that several of, the jurymen were out of town, four were dead,- five could not he found, and some had removed out ,of the city, so that there were only two who had been personally served. The Lord. Chief Justice directed these "two gentlemen to be fined 101. each. Upon further inquiry, it appeared that the hooks from which the list 'had • been taken were made out So long ago as three years; at which his LOrdship expressed his diSapprobation.

Shapcott and Joseph, two sheriff's officers, for arresting the plaintiff, whom they erroneously supposed to be a Mr. Benjamin Pearson, against whom the officers had a writ. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the action was for a very gross outrage, committed under the most unjustifiable circumstances. His client was a re spectable attorney, ' whose object in bringing the action was not damages, but to punish the two offi cers for their misconduct. The plaintiff had been arrested through mistake, and, had he been treated with that decency which every man -was entitled to, he would never have thought of instituting proceed ings, but he wished to make an example of the officers for their unnecessary grossness. On the 7th of last April the plaintiff had occasion to go to Highgate, and when returning home in the evening, he was assailed, near the Archway, by the two de fendants, Shapcott and Joseph, who, it appeared, had a writ against a Mr. Benjamin Pearson. Shap cott, after asking him a few questions, told him he had a writ against him, and laid hold of him. The plaintiff said he was mistaken ; .but they insisted that they were not, and dragged him along in the most violent manner to the Highgate Archway Tavern : and when he expressed a wish to see the landlord, and desired for that purpose to go into the bar, they would not let him do so, and refused to hear any explanation, but, forced him into a room up stairs. Shortly afterwards, the landlord was sent for, and on entering the room he saw the plaintiff showing his pocket-book to the officers, and endea vouring to convince them who he was. Indeed he warned them repeatedly, but they for a ,Jong time refused to receive his explanation. They at last, hoWever, did receive his card, and beginning to sus pect that they were wrong, , they told-him that he was at liberty, after which they made apologies as abject as their conduct had been outrageous :• these apologies, the plaintiff felt it his duty to reject. Evidence having been given of the assault:: • Mr. BROUGHAM, fOr the defendants, contended that the plaintiff was arrested throngh his own fault ; he chose to be arrested•by personating another man; he went about decoying the sheriff's officers to ar-. rest him,in order that he might teach them a lesson of good manners. There was .a writ at the suit of Mr. Catherwood against a Mr. Benjamin- Pearson, which had been a lono. time in the hands of the de fendants, ivhO(had :with neat difficulty traded Pear son to the Highgate Archway, where they under- . ptood he was to get. into one of the Manchester /caches. As'they did not personally, cnost).lPearson, they naturally thought, that if they saw a man looking out for, a coach, that - man Would probably .be the person, and seeing the plaintiff making a long crane . neck, as if looking for the coach, they accosted. him as Mr. BenjarnitiPearson. ' Had he then told them li he was Mr. Blacllow an attorney, the - would as soon have touched a snake as have laid .r,._, . s .upon him ; but the jury would hear that he was over and over again accosted by the.name of Pearson, and that 'he suffered himself to be so addressed, without taking any pains to undeceive the officers until he got a copy of the warrant, when he told them his name, and abused them, and threatened, them with proceedings. A man who answers to the name of the person 'in search of whoin Sheriff's officers are going,must thank himself for the inconvenience he is put to.

Wit ness went with the two defendants to The Archway. Whilst sitting there, they saw the plaintiff coming as . if from the house of Mr. - Neville, a relation of Benjamin Pearson. The defendants went out, and 'itness followed. Joseph accosted him, and said, " Mr.Benjamin . Pearson, of Utrecht." The plain tiff looked confused, and coloured, but said, U What's your pleasure ?" Mr. John Cather Wood then came up, took off his hat, and said, " Mr. Benjamin Pear son." The plaintiff said, " What is your pleasure, what do you want ?" Joseph then said, •" I have a writ against you, at the suit of Mr.. Catherwood." The plaintiff answered, " -You can't take me ; you shan't take me." The officers said they would, and went one on each Side of him, and took him to the public-house, he continually saying, " You can't take me," but never telling his name. The plaintiff wished to go into' the bar, but Shapcett said, " No : a private room." When we . got in; the warrant was shown, and the plaintiff copied ii Witness went to Mr. Neville's house? to - get the plaintiff's luggage, thinking he was certainly Benjamin Pear.; son ; but when he got there he SAW the real Mr. Benjamin Pearson, who made his escape.

Three indictments had been found against him; and that on which he was now arraigned contained nine counts. The prisoner was charged in a variety of ways; th e o ff ence itself was the forting an endorsement, and uttering as true, a certain interest or promissory note, of the city bank, Messrs. Milford and Son, and Co., for 60/., No. 11,859, dated the 30th of April, 1826, and drawn in the usual manner at 20 days, in favour of Mary Easterbrook, with intent to defraud Elizabeth Cal lendar. Mr. COLERIDGE said, it was fortunate that in this city cases of this kind seldom occurred, and it was not improbable that to most if not to all the jury, conversant as they were with their general duties in that Court, the consideration of a question of such vital import, both as affecting the prisoner and the public, had never before been presented to them.

When presented by the prisoner, they were neither of them endorsed. There was nothing on the back except the receipt for the interest. I then paid him the money, 601., with the interest; prisoner asked for gold; I told him I would give him Bank, of England notes ; he said either before I paid the money, or immediately afterwards, am not cer tain which, Mrs. Easterbrook is out of town, but he should be able to get her endorsement by the next day, when the note would come for payment; saw nothing more of him or the note that day ; but about eleven o'clock in the forenoon of the following day (the 4th), the same note was presented for payment by Ann Smale, with the name Mary East er b roo k written on the back; in consequence of information the bank had previously, received, I did not pay it. On his cross-examination Mr. Rawlings does not know whether Mrs. Callender has had dealings at the city hank. Though the notes are at 20 days' sight, it is always the custom to pay on demand, unless in cases such as occurred about two years since, of a run on the bank, when they avail them selves of the 20 days' notice, in order to see what may come in: _ . ry Ann Smale is the daughter of John Smale, who keeps the Red Cow in St. Sidwell's ; prisoner came to their house' on the evening of the 3d of October; had supper, and grog, and slept there. On the fol lowing morning said he wanted to go to the bank, but had drunk a little over night, and wished some . person would go for him ; he asked me to go for him; Isaid I would ; he asked fOr pen and ink ; I brought it to him, and saw him write upon a hill ; it was on the back of the note; I believe he had three notes when he was writing; he gave me the bill On . which I saw him write, with two others; cannot say On which of the three he wrote; (a nose was.handed.to the witness), this.is one of the notes he gave me ; he told me I was to take them to the bank, and if there was any refusal to pay the bills, I was .to say . " it was for the person who received :the money of them yesterday; I presented this note to Mr. Rawlings ; the other two I presented at the Exeter Bank first ; the notes were not paid. On her cross-examination she said, I lighted him-to bed on. the night he slept 'at our house; he wag a little intoxicated, but able to walk up stairs ; saw him the next morningabout half-past seven ; he was perfectly sober. He was not intoxicated, nor was he tipsy when he desired me to go to the bank. Mr. Rawlings was recalled, at the request of Mr. COLERIDGE, and to a question put by the Court, as to the state in which Franks was when he came to the bank on the 3d, replied, that he appeared as sober as any person that came to the bank on that day. • John .

On his cross-examination he denied having any ill feeling towards the prisoner ; bad never said he would en deavour to hang him, or that he wished him hanged. Harriett Tootell is wife of John Tootell.—Mary Easterbrook and Ann Franks are her sisters: knows their writing well ; the signatures on the notes now handed her are not of their writing. Elizabeth Callendar was the mother-in-law of the prisoner; he married her daughter Ann; they lived with her; she had interest notes, drawn in the names of her three daughters, whose property, on a certain • event, it was to become; at present the notes were her property ; they were kept in a box locked; and in a room to which the prisoner and his wife had free and unreserved access as well as herself; she had re cently, about thelatter days of September, seen them there, and .was not aware of her loss until the . day on 'which the prisoner was taken into custody; the box, to look at, presented the same appearance as before, but on closer inspection, it was found the h fall f he i r egnneii:n,sdtl;oatrBdoevsnittileioeeininro receipt theoceesr insidee,f or t pr h e t gho p oef o nt i ei n i points s year's o i rot, feeoixlnett signature, ihexl e gsltre,enhae t c l assbe a ttta i um l : s liri,vkohei h hio a ;eeliA N te ' abl i bn t sueo ) y g tF. siNiVieiaers sent her ‘ ol V ri r ei i tr t 3 l , o n . rg accompanied Could u h . iedr tnow daughter.iler t 'is certain she ultimately received the money.

Knows the writing of ,the whole of the parties; the signatures now shown her are not theirs. This witness was also cross examined, but nothing was elicited to invalidate her testimony in chief. Mr. Cnowmumt. -took a variety of objections. He believed it to be an invariable rule of law in cases of this kind; that the alleged forged instrument should be set forth in all its parts in the indictment; in this ease he observed a writing on the back of the note, beside the endorsement, which lie could, and others had very easily made out to be " Mary Easterbrook :" this was wholly omitted in the indictment, and he ~~~,~ ,•= z " , 11 . 1 , # '' t • - '4l; xv.l4}, submitted was fatal to atettraterlateemPP. other objection went to the efflet that the proof of forgery, as affecting th e prisonertiWas not complete. Mr. R. R.

Mrs. Spreat thought the prisoner rather tipsy when he came to her house about 10 on the morning of the 4th, but appeared to know what he was about. The RECORDER summed up. The Jury; after a few moments 3 consideration, and at about seven o'clock, returned a verdict of " Guilty." The Couwr saw no necessity for proceeding on the other two indictments. Mr. COLERIDGE rose, and in the name of all the parties concerned in the prosecution, recommended the prisoner to the merciful consideration of the Court. RECORDER.—I - have no discretion as to what my duty must be now. William Franks, you have been convicted on evidence very satisfactory to my mind of forgery. I' confess there are many circumstances that convince me you have committed a most deli berate act: you commenced your crime with felony in breaking the box and stealing the property of your aged relative, and until your career was stopped, persevered in your' attempts to- appropriate the savings of, probably, her whole life. It only remains for me to finish my painful task by sentencing you to be hanged by, the neck until you are dead, and may God have mercy on your sou).

HEIGHTS OF NIAGARA FALLS.---A gen tleman in Albany has politely furnished us with the perpendicular height of the Falls, taken by actual measurement, from the new bridge, re cently erected from the west end of Goat Island, extending to the Terrapin rocks, 800 feet from the shore. The mode adopted in ascertaining the depth from the brink of the Fall to the sur face of the water below, leaves no room to from nAI the mrai o li f ug sca o n f tli t 'n h g e q w u a e s st u i o s n ed i:s pr c o o si r e re ct c i t n n g 6ss f . r bridge over the edge of the precipice; from which was suspended a cord, with a weight attached, reaching fairly to the water in a perpendicular line. The length of the cord to the surface of the water at the brink, was 13 feet 1 inch ; from this to the water below, on accurate measure ment, the distance was found . to be 158 feet 4 inches. These facts are duly certified by several gentlemen, residents and foreigners, and by Mr.' Hooker, the superintendent on GiDat Island. We are told this is the first successful attempt that wag-ever made to ascertain the perpendicu lar descent by actual measurement. Heretofore it has been done by observation.--American Paper. Volumnious supplies of printed papers, con sisting of books for entries, and tickets for deli veries of malt, have been issued to the maltsters in this neighbourhood. The perplexities to which the trade has been exposed by the opera tion of the new Act are of the most daunting description, and have not only already inflicted on that industrious and respectable class of tradesmen a serious mischief, but have also in volved the whole agricultural' nterest in a singu lar dilemma. It is a curious fact, that there are more penalties denounced in the new Malt Act against offenders, than Mr. Peel has thought it necessary, in his late Consolidation Act, to at tach to every description of offence in the king dom. The measure must certainly undergo sober revision in the next session of Parliament, and until then Ministers will, perhaps, think it advisable to suspend its operation.

An important question, as affecting Authors and Publishers, is now pending in the Court of King's Bench. It is, whether, under the last Copyright Act of the 54th Geo. 111. cap. 156, which gives to each .of the Universities and Pub lic Libraries the right of demanding a copy of every work published, those Institutions 'are en titled to copies of parts of a publication (such parts not forming an entire volume) before the . whole work is completed. The question has been mooted in an action brought by the Trus-' tees of the British, Museum against Messrs. Payne and Foss, the booksellers, of Pall-mall, who published some numbers of the late Dr. Sib. thorpe's celebrated work on Botany, Flora Grceca, the publication of which was commenced before the paSsing'of the Act in question, and' the work was continued in, numbers, but has not been completed, in consequence of the exe- ' .cutorS of the late Doctor not being possessed of adequate funds for the purpose. Mr. Justice Bayley has already expressed an opinion, at Nisi Prius, on the construction of the Copyright , against the claim by the Britis h Museum , but 'p of A excitement, by thrown i n t o a , O n a Tue sday public u blie last, the question is shortly to be submitted to the consideration of the Court of King's Bench. . s tl ta le t A e goodof religious' Jaw il people an nouncement, that a converted Jew was to preach in the Masonic Lodge, on th • e evening of that day.

Towards the end of the sermon, a sort of fracas took place, owing to the scepticism of a stalwart theo logian, who, when the Israelite declared " that he was commanded to preach the word in five market towns in Scotland," stood up, and in a demanded from 'whom he dem very dictatorial tone had received his commission . This interroga tion did not, however, damp the ardour of the Israelite, who only observed, in reply, that he was willing to answer any questions which might be put to him after the sermo n was concluded. T he natives, of course, expected that at its conclusion there would be a regular " war of words betwixt he of the beard and he of the bake ; but whether it was that the said septic turned at last a true believer in the assertions of the Jew, - touching his authority to preach "the word in fi ve market towns in Scotland," or whether his courage failed him, and 'he became afraid of the Jew's beard " we cannot tell; yet true it is that he put no farther questions to the eater of boa's-flesh," and the congregation dispersed very much down in the mouth , at. th e i r t ownsma n having displayed such , a paucity of pluck...
