The business of these Assizes, which commenced yesterday between twelve and one o'clock, termi nated about the same hour to-day. The only cause (an ejectment) which stood over until this morning, went oif on a compromise. Both the Learned Judges then speedily disposed of the few remaining indictments. WESTERN CIRCUIT.-WINCIIESTER, JULY 21. Wilson Coatis, a private soldier, was indicted for having assaulted Richard Fremantle on the 4th of last May, in the parish of Carishrook, in the Isle of Wight, and forcibly taking from him a purse contain ing about 7s. The case was proved by the most plain and direct evidence, but the .Jury recommended the prisoner to mercy, on the ground that the parties were both drunk when the crime was committed. The prisoner appeared to belong to the Rifle Brigade. lie was not sentenced. Charles Tower, a respectable-looking man, was convicted, after a long and intricate series of circum stantial evidence, of having stolen 21 sheep, the property of Sir William Haatheote, Bart. M.P. for Hampshire. Several persons gave the prisoner a most respectable character, and one or two of them stated that they had hud dealings with him to the ex tent of several thousand pounds. WAIGHT V. BAKERSLANDiat. The defendant in this action is the proprietor of the Southampton Mercury, and the plaintiff bad been in his employment for many years. Upon a particular occasion the defendant lost 275. out of his desk, and imputed the robbery to the plaintiff, who called upon him to submit the charge to a public investigation, but the defendant, though he declined to establish the charge, continued to repeat it. The plaintiff, to vindicate his character, brought the present action, but it appearing to the Jury, in tile course of the trial, that the defendant had not, in his conduct towards the plaintiff, been actuated by malice, the parties, under the direction of the Learned Judge, agreed to withdraw a juror. num or IRISH STOCKS, DUBLIN, JULY 20.

THE JULY 18.—The King's journey to Groningen and Friesland, which was spoken of some titne ago, will soon take place. His Majesty is expected on the 21st inst. at Groningen, and on the 234 will go to Leenwarden, where the Prince of Orange is expected on the 224 with his two eldest sons. After leaving Groningen, his Majesty will go to Overessel and Drenthe 30th July. His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange, with his two youngest eons, arrived here this forenoon, and will set out to-morrow for Friesland. - Our Journals contain long accounts of the visit of the Prince of Orange to Middleburg, Flushing, and other places. The exhibition of the works of national art and manufacture now epen at Brussels is very brilliant. It consists of above 4,000 articles, which have been sent by above 1,000 artists and manufacturers ; the articles offered amount to above 5,000. This is a greater number than in the preceding exhibitions, and Is a proof of the progress made within these few rears. The number of visitors to the exhibition, among whom are many foreigners, is very great. VIENNA, JULY 10.--Prince Metternich, accom panied by Prince Philip of Hesse-Homburg, went yesterday to wait on his Majesty at Baden. It is reported that this nitre will have the honour of complimenting the new King of England, in the mime of our Court, on his accession, as he bad the mission to compliment the Emperor of Russia at Warsaw. This is considered as a confirmation of the report that this Prince will come forward as a candidate for the Throne of Greece, and that he being supported in this by our Government, has been entrusted with these missions in order that he might be personally known to the two Sovereigns. The news of the refusal of the Greek throne by Prince Leopold has caused a great sensation at Con stantinople, and there were frequent conferences between the Reis Effendi and the Ambassadors of the three Powers. The same letters of the 25th affirm also that, probably with the guarantee of our Court, a loan of eight millions of ducats has been concluded with the house of Rothschild. The Duke of Reichstadt, hitherto Captain in the Imperial Regiment of Yagers ' has been appointed by his Majesty Major in the regiment of Stains, now in garrison at Prague.

CANNA, JUNE 2.—Le Genie, a French brig of war, commanded by Lieutenant Peyronnet, arrived at Sude a few days ago; it was sent by Admiral de Itigny, at the request of the French Ambassador at Constantinople. M. Peyronnet brought de spatches to the Chancellor of the French Consulate, M. Gaspery, and had orders to settle with the latter concerning certain communications be made to the Seraskier, Mustapha Pada, and to the Greeks, in the name of the Allied Powers. Accordingly, the protocol of London, of February 3, was corn naumcated to MustapLa Paella, in his camp at Ker. thomadi, and he was requested to cease hostilities in the parts of the island occupied by his troops. The Seraskier replied, that he had already forbidden his troops to leave their cuntonments ; that he had also ordered the inhabitants of Cann to desist from their revolutionary excursions, and that he would be answerable for the tranquillity of the island, if the Greeks on their part did not trouble it. Captain Peyronnet made the same communication to 700 or 800 Spakists, assembled at (Wives. lie signified to them, that according to the London Protocol, Candle was to remain in the possession of the Turks, and an amnesty was granted to all Greeks by the Porte ; and that all of them might, if they pleased, leave the island with their property. The Greeks violently protested against these resolutions, and announced that they would drive Mustapha from his actual position, because be had no right to be there. M. Peyronnet having executed his orders, immediately sailed to acquaint Admiral de Rigny of the result of his mission.---Prussian Stales Ga zelle, July 17. The KING has been pleased to direct that Sir ROMA' WILSON shall be restored to hisrank in the army. Al it it well known that the deprivation of the gallant officer woo owing to false evident* laid before the late Ktuu, the restoration is in on. sense merely an act of justice; but the mode in which it bee been done entitles it to be called an act of most gracious kintinout. We hear that there is soma doubt of Mr. Ifusatesotr being able to visit his friends at Liverpool at the period he intended. He was seized with illness while attending the late KING'S funeral, and remains in a state of Indirposition.

PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENT. This being the day appointed for the pro rogation of Parliament, by his MAJESTY in person, a ceremony which has not taken place since the commencement of the last reign, nothing could exceed the animated scene which at an early hour in the morning presented itself in the West End of the town. The crowds which had began thus early to collect in all those places commanding a view of the line of route by which the ltoyal procession was to move, had by twelve o'clock become so dense as to render it extremely difficult to pass along. From an early hour workmen were busily employed in erecting temporary platforms in front of almost all the public offices and private residences throughout the whole line of Parliament-street, from Charing-cross to the House of Lords, stands in which were let out at sums varying from 10s. Gd. to ls., according to the eligibility of the situation. These spe culations appeared all, without any exception, to prove exceedingly lucrative, notwithstanding the prices of admission demanded by their respec tive proprietors, fluctuated with a rapidity and to an extent without any parallel on the Stock Exchange. About ten o'clock several files of the Foot Guards were stationed at the different avenues leading to St. James's Palace, and pre cisely at twelve o'clock a very strong de tachment of the Horse Guards, preceded by the trumpeters of the regiment were marshalled out, and shortly afterward defiled on either aide of Parliament-street. By this time the carriages of the Nobility were arriving at the House of Lords in very rapid suc cession, and nothing could exceed the ani mated scene which presented itself both within and outside the House. At half-past one o'clock the procession moved from St. James's Palace. The Royal cor tege consisted of five State carriages, preceded and followed bylnutnerous: detachments of the Life Guards.

In consequence of His MAJESTY Prorogu ing Parliament in person, the most extensive preparations and improvements were made in the different parts connected with the House of Lords, through which his MAJESTY passed on his way to the Throne. The beautiful Long Gal lery was studded with chairs for the accommo dation of Ladies. In the Painted Chamber platforms were erected for the same purpose, and every spot connected with the House, where it would be possible to catch a glimpse of his MAJESTY, had undergone the like improvement, and was crowded with persons of the first rank and fashion. So great was the anxiety displayed, that long► before twelve o'clock, the time appointed for the admission of such of the public as had been able to procure tickets, the doors of the House and all the avenues were thronged with spec tators, anxious to obtain even a distant glance at the ceremony. On our admission into the House, at ten mi nutes before twelve, we found both sides crowded with Peeresses, dressed in deep mourning. The Lords all appeared in full robes. His MAJESTY arrived in the House at ten minutes past two o'clock, and took his seat on the Throne, accompanied by his usual State attendants. The Duke of WEL. LINGTON stood on his MAJESTY'S left band, bearing the Sword of State. The Marquis of HASTINGS held the Crown on a rich velvet cushion. The Marquis of WIN CHESTER and the Duke of NORFOLK were to the right of his MAJESTY, and held the Cap of Maintenance and the Royal Sceptre. His MAJESTY was dressed in a full naval uniform, over which he wore his robes: of State. He looked extremely well, and in excellent spirits. As soon as his MAJESTY had taken his seat moned:ihe Commons to attend; his MAJESTY at the Bar of the House. Shortly afterwards the SPEAKER arrived, followed by upwards of two hundred Members. The SPEAKER then addressed his MA. JESTY, congratulating him on his accession to the Throne of his ancestors, and assuring him of the loyalty and attachment of his faithful Commons. His MAJESTY then gave his Royal Assent to several Bills, among which were the Appro. priatio Bill, the Forgery Bill, the Administra tion of Justice Bill—the Lunatic Property 13111—the Libel Law Amendment Bill— the Courts of Sessions, (Scotland), Bill—the East Retford Disfranchisement Bill, and the Sale of Beer Bill. His MAJESTY then read the following most Gracious Speech : " My LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, " On this first occasion of meeting you, I am de sirous of repeating to you in person my cordial thanks for those assurances of sincere sympathy and affectionate attachment which you conveyed to me on the demise of my lamented Brother, and on my accession to the Throne of my ancestors. " I ascend that Throne with a deep sense of the sacred duties which devolve upon me, with a firm reliance on the affection of my faithful subjects, and on the support and co-operation of Parliament, and with an humble and earnest prayer to Almighty God, that he will prosper my anxious endeavours to promote the happines of a free and loyal people. " It is with the utmost satisfaction that I find my selfenabled to congratulate you upon thegeneral tran quillity of Europe. This tranquillity, it will be the ob ject of my constant endeavours to preserve; and the assurances which I receive from my Allies, and from all Foreign Powers, are declared in a similar spirit. " I trust that the good understanding which pre vails upon subjects of common interest, and the deep concern which every State must have in main taining the peace of the world, will ensure the satisfactory settlement of those matters which still remain to be filially arranged. " GENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, " I thank you for the Supplies which you have granted, and for the provisions you have made for the several branches of the public service, during that part of the present year which must elapse before a new Parliament can be assembled. I cordially congratu late you on the diminution which has taken place in the expenditure of the country, on the reduction of the charge of the Public Debt; and on the relief which you have afforded to my People by the Repeal of some of those Taxes which have heretofore pressed heavily upon them. You may rely upon my prudent and eco nomical administration of the Supplies which you have placed at my disposal, and upon my readi ness to concur in every diminution of the Pub lic Charges which can be effected consistently with the dignity of the Crown, the maintenance of na tional faith, and the permanent interests of the country. " MY Loans AND GENTLEMEN, " I cannot put an end to this Session, and take my leave of the present Parliament, without expressing my cordial thanks for the zeal which you have mani fested on so many occasions for the welfare of my people. " You have wisely availed yourselves of the happy opportunity of general peace and internal repose calmly to review many of the laws and judicial establishments of the country, and you have applied such cautious and well-considered Re forms as are consistent with the spirit of our vene rable institutions, and are calculated to facilitate and expedite the administration of justice. " You have removed the civil disqualifi cations which affected numerous and important classes of my people. " While I declare on this solemn occasion my fixed intention to maintain, to the utmost of my power, the Protestant Reformed Religion established by Law, let me at the same time express my earnest hope that the animosities which have prevailed on account of religious distinctions may be forgotten, and that the decision of Parliament, with respect to those distinctions having been irrevocably pro nounced, my faithful subjects will unite with me in advancing the great object contemplated by the Legislation, and in promoting that spirit of domestic concord and peace which consti; tutes the surest basis of our national strength and happiness." We have by express the Gazette de France, dated yesterday, and letters and papers of Wednesday night. Extract of a letter dated Wednesday evening : " All ►orts of reports have been circulated again to day. It has been asserted that the Chambers are to be assembled at Lille, instead of Paris ; that WI. de Vitrolles is to be Minister of Finance, instead of Monthel ; other. say Dodo!). As vigorous measures are the order of the day, the politicians are providing situations for some energetic men—such as Pronchet and Delavon, who are to assist in sabreing tl►e good people of Paris in the month of August or September, when the grand operations against the Charter are to commence." The Courier de Francais says It was observed yesterday, that the King, in anwering the felicitations that were addressed to him, avoided touching upon the ques tion of the occupation of Algiers. Some of the Minis terial papers announce today that the division Loverdo is to return to France. General Bourziont speaks of sending back the materiel. This measure, far from offering any presumption in favour a lasti ng es t a bli s h ment, would only show evidently that the Gov ernment is peculiarly d es i rous of tranquillizing the jealousy of England." The position of the Ministers in reference of the Chant. hers will be much less emitrassing, as they will have but few supplitnentary subsidies to require. " We are assured," says the Journal du Commerce, " that the Princede Polignac applied to persons best able to give him information for a statetnent of the opinions of the Chamber of Peers. The first report being by no means satisfactory, a second inquiry was demanded, which, however, was not more encouraging than the former."

The Residents from foreign Powers have not quitted Algiers. The town is perfectly tranquil, but the terror excited by the French army with out, and by the Turks within the walls, has left a feeling of reserve among the rich iuhabittnts which will not sub side entirely until the final departure of the Turks shall have proved that the country will remain under the pro tection of France." Extract of a private letter from Toulon, dated the 14th instant:--' The store•ship La Garonne has just sailed for Algiers, with provisions for the army. All the ships and frigates on the coast of Africa are expected to return immediately, in consequence of the constant storms they are liable to. A small flotilla, just sufficient to protect the coast, will remain afloat." VIENNA, JULY 10.—Accounts from Constantinople of June 28, state, that the news of the failure of Tahir Pacha's commission bad arrived there by way of Smyrna. This fact cast a gloom over all the Rfussulsmans, because they consider it as an evident proof of the discredit into which the power of the Grand Seignior had fallen, and of the little respect paid to Turkey by Christendom. It is asserted, that in consequence of the treatment which this Ambassador has experienced, some very animated discus sions have taken place between the Reis Effendi and Count Guilleminot. A Letter from St. Petersburgh states that the Emperor intends to visit the whole of the Baltic shores. Now that peace is established in the East, his Majesty has resolved to turn all the attention of his Government towards the Navy and the internal commerce of his empire. It is reported that several of the ports in the Baltic will be declared free, and t'nat the pay of the navy will be aug mented.

Shrewd, inde fatigable as a man of business, dealing with great public questions in a sound and practical, not in a visionary or theoretical spirit; enlightened in his principles, clear and forcible in his mode of giving them utterance, and equally persevering in enforcing them, Mr. P. THOMSON is the man of all others whose services can be least dis pensed with in the House of Commons. At any juncture such a politician could not fail to have a due weight of influence ; but at the present un settled crisis, when all sorts of principles and plans are projected, and few or none are brought to a completion, his exertions are invaluable. We do not forget that it is to him the Press is indebted for one of the ablest and most effective speeches made in its behalf during the present Session. The way in which the Hon. Gentle man advocated the diminution of taxes on News paper Advertisements ; the fullness and correct ness of his details; the comprehensive know ledge he evinced of his subject—a subject by no means 4 so simple a character as might on the first view be imagined—together with the distinctness of his illustrations, and the mas sive weight of his arguments, made, we well remember, a great impression at the time, and one that is not likely soon to be forgotten. On the great commercial topics of the day, Mr. POULETT Titomrsorr is equally at home. Ho is familiar with the complicated machinery of the Colonial and Free Trade Systems, as well as with those innumerable minor points of civil and mercantile policy, which are perpetually turning up in the House to the exclusion of more important matters. As a speaker, Mr. POULETT THOMPSON possesses the enviable recommendation of being listened to invariably with attention, and very often with delight. In no one way, therefore, can the public services of such a man be dispensed with. South Sea Stock Old Annuities New Ditto Ex. Bills,Xl,ooo`2d, 83 84 pm. Ditto lid. 83 $4 pm. Ditto 500 a 83 84 pm.

This gradual decline is attributed to a gloom which overhangs the speculators at Paris, ascribed to an opinion that the Ministers are firm in their determination of push ing the expected obduracy of the Chamber by a coup d'etat, and they are all anxiously waiting for the result of the King's Counsel. There is also another report that the former prison of Algiers has taken up a strong position at no great distance from that city, which occasions doubts as to the results of the campaign. The mercantile letters from Sires, to the 20th of July, inform us that the Albanian insurgents have taken measures to repel any serious attacks on the part of the Ottoman Government, and have concentrated their forces, to the number of 20,000 men, and have invested the towns of Rosani and Sadism, where they pillage and de stroy all that falls into their power. • . i The intelligence from Salowa sof the most alarming nature, and trade has been completely suspended.

(PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The business of the Assizes commenced here at twelve o'clock to-day. Mr. Justice PARKE presides on the Crown side, and Mr. Justice llosaNQuirr at Nisi Prins. CIVIL. SIDE. (Before Mr. Justice BosAxQuET.) lI4POUTANT TO AUCTIONESItS.,--TAUNTON V. ADAMS. Mr. TAUNTON (with whom was Mr. Clitt.eter) stated that the plaintiff in this action was an attorney residing at Oxford, and the defendant an auctioneer living in the same city. The action was brought to recover com pensation in damages, which the plaintiff alleged he had sustained in consequence of the false representations of the defendant. From the statement of Counsel, and after wards confirmed by evidence, it appeared that in March last defendant was employed by a person named Sadler, a livery-stable keeper in the city, to sell off his stud of horses. In the notice of sale and. the advertise ments the defendant had represented all the horses that were to he submitted to the hammer as the genuine property of Mr. Sadler, who was retiring from business. Now (said the Learned Counsel) Mr. Sadler's well-known reputation and character stood so high, that he would not have a bad horse in the stable. He was renowned for the excellence of his horses, and the defendant represented them all as being well known in the Beaufort and Mostyn Hunts. He also stated their pedigrees. There was " Logic," that he supposed was named out of com pliment to the University.—(Laughter.)—Vigil, Vixen, and so on to No. 12, which was described as a hand some bay gelding, by Paulton. All this flowing description attracted a great number of persons to the sale, amongst others the plaintiff, and he being aware that Mr. Sadler never kept a bad horse, determined upon purchasing the bay.gelding, which he accordingly did for the sum of 41 guineas. It was a fine animal, and would have deceived the best of judges in horse flesh.—(A laugh.) —A day or two after the horse became the pro perty of the plaintiff he was tried, and No. 12, by Paulton, proved very lame—(A laugh) —or, to use the common phrase, was not able to stir a leg. The plaintiff was na turally astonished, and on making inquiry, ascertained that his horse had never at any time belonged to Mr. Sadler, but had been elided into the sale by his brother.- in -law, Mr. Beechey. A doctor was called in who pro nounced that his patient was not likely to get better, as it had a hardness or ossification of the feet. The plaintiff in consequence wrote a letter to the defendant, wishing the horse to be taken back, to which he received an answer, stating that Mr. Beechey refused to have any thing to do with the transaction. He was there fore obliged to bring the present action, and now sought to recover 41 guineas, the price of the horse ; Si. 121. for the doctor's bill ; and 161. for its keep from March last, and then any one was at liberty to have the horse. Several witnesses deposed to the facts as stated by the Learned Counsel. Mr. Serjeant RUSSELL, (Mr. Telford with him) took several legal objections to the form of the action, and con tended as no warrantry had been given the plaintiff could not recover. The Learned Judge having overruled the objections, Mr. Set jeant Russm, addressed the Jury for the defen dant at very great length. The Learned Counsel con tended that an action like the present had never before been brought in a Court of Justice. The plaintiff was a professional gentleman who could get law cheap, but in the present instance he certainly had shown himself a most ingenious man. He would repeat, never had such an ac tion been heard of before. Mr. TAUNTON—Indeed you are quite wrong--such actions are as old as the law itself. Mr. Sergeant RussiLL—Not in this form. The de fendant could not he made responsible unless the Jury were of opinion he was acting with a fraudulent intent. Nothing could be more common than in slits by auction to have goods of another person put in. Mr. Justice BOSANQUET—And, brother Russell, per haps nothing can be more improper. Mr. Serjeant Russxm was not then prepared to argue that point. The question now to be decided was (for on that the case rested), whether or not the defendant had practised deceit to the injury of the plaintiff? The horses were represented as belonging to an Oxford livery-stable. keeper, a place as admitted by Mr. Sadler himself most unlikely to find a good horse in, for they were generally rode by young gentlemen of the University, who, the Jury would know, had only one pace, and that was as hard as the animal could go—(Laughter)—therefore to sup pose the horse must be good, because it belonged to Mr. Sadler's stud, was absurd and ridiculous. If it was in tended as a puff, it was one unworthy of any auctioneer. The real fact was, the plaintiff had found by his care lessness he bad got a bad bargain, and wanted to get rid of it. It was two months before he hit upon a scheme ; but he (Mr. Serjeant Russell) hoped the Jury, by their verdict that day, would not brand a respectable man with being capable of practising deceit, but let the plaintiff take the consequences of his own carelessness. Mr. Justice 13osANTQuET, in summing► up, said this was an action brought to recover compensation in damages for an injury which the plaintiff complained be bad this tained. He did not think the plaintiff could recover the whole amount claimed; but be was of opinion that he was entitled to the amount he had given for the horse more than it was worth--buying it, as he did, wider the im pression that it belonged to Mr. Sadler. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff....-Da mages 281. BEASLEY V. NEVILLE. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover the sum of 251., the value of a horse which had been killed by the defendant driving the shafts of his chaise into the shoulder of the animal. It appeared from the evidence that the plaintiff conveys the mail from Oxford to Northampton. Oa the 21st of March, about eight o'clock in the evening, the plaintiff's servant was driving a one horse cart (which conveys the 'nail), when he met the defendant : they came in contact ; the shafts of the de. fendant's chaise entered the shoulder of the plaintiff's horse, and it died in consequence a few days afterwards. Six witnesses, on behalf of the plaintiff, stated that the defendant was driving at a furious rate, and that he was on the wrong side of the road. For the defendant several witnesses attributed the acci dent entirely to the negligence or obstinacy of the plain tiff's servant, who might, if he pleased, have got out of the way ; they also stated that he was on the wrong side of the road, and the defendant on the right. Mr. Se►jeant Ilussem and Mr. Cunwoon were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Tau - ono and Mr. Wnrrz for the de fendant. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 251. 'The Court then adjourned until tight o'clock to morrow morning. CROWN SIDE. (Before Mr. Justice Nur:E.) Several prisoners were tried during the day, but their cases did not possess any circumstances of public interest worth reporting. --- WESTERN CIRCUIT.--.WINCHESTER, Juir 22. In consequence of the business being very heavy, a se cond Court sat this day for the trial of prisoners., in which the lion, Mr. EASKna presided. The following case excited very great interest:— Richard IVhimple stood indicted for obtaining money by false pretences, under the following peculiar circum stances :—On the tth of February last, Capt. Win. Far ringdon, of his Majesty's navy, as he was getting into the r(lacli for Portsmouth, saw the prisoner in the inn yard, in Gracechurch.street, assisting a man to the coach, who was in the greatest state of human misery, and wh ose name was Stent. The Captain travelled from London with them, and the prisoner's attentions to the unfortunate Stent were most humane. Stent bad a keeper with him, who was in such a state of stupor, that he was obliged to he tied on the roof of the coach, and the prisoner supplied his place. When the coach atopt for the passenger, to dine, the prisoner, in a conversation with Captain Farringdon, entered into the particulars of Stent's case. He repro 'tented himself to be the Rev. Bouverie Wright, a relative of Captain Bouverie, of the Navy; and on Capt. Farring don observing that he must also he related to Mr. Bou verie, Rector of Whippingham, he said, " Oh ! yes; but he is 'going to change Whippingham for some other living." He said he was forming a subscription for the Stent family; and showed Capt. Farringdon a letter from Mrs. Powell, in which that lady said she had inclosed 101. for Mr. Stent; it was addressed to the Rev. Bouverie Wright. He also showed him several other letters, with the same address; and they had a conversation, the effect of which was, that Capt. Farringdon should endeavour to obtain subscriptions in the Isle of Wight. On the 17th of February the prisoner called upon Cept. Farringdon, in the Isle o f Wi ght. Capt. Farringdon told him he hail 14 sovereigns for Mr. Stela. The prisoner spent three or four days with him. He went by the name of Bouverie Wright, a Clergyman, and his conduct was extremely in character, and his conversation of a spiritual nature.... The prisoner having left him onythe Saturday, Capt. Far. ringdon sent his servant to him on the Sunday morning, with a W. note, and begged lie would return him IL, which be did ; it was given expressly far the Stent family. The prisoner did not apply to Captain Farringdon for' money, but appealed to hie feelings is $ moi l e r m uc h more of in which he saw Stent, and the representation soner as to his family, that Capt. Farringdon was incline( to subscribe. The prisoner, in his examination berm* Magistrate, admitted that he was not *Clergyman* an that his real name was Whinyle. Mrs Stent , received any money from the prisoner ; but hei had wished him once to write to some one for but she objected to it. The case for the prosecution being closed, Mr. C. SAUNDERS, for the prisoner, contended 60 indictment was bad, inasmuch as the evidence wing show that the credit was given in consequence of Idle which were never alluded to in the indictment. Mr. ERSKINE said, be considered the indictment 10 altogether, for it stated the prisoner's object to Wool' money under the pretence that it was for Georgians 11 0 riet Stent, whereas in the evidence her name had rife been mentioned. He was sorry it so happened, but its impossible the indictment could stand, and therefore prisoner must be acquitted. They must go aconlliog the rules of law. We understand a detainer is lodged against the Prio r . who is about 30 years of age, and of good address. Is said he read the burial service better than most men, IP that his sermons were of the first order. There are some very heavy cases coming on to-m' and it is not expected that the business will be over p i ll fin late on Saturday night. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAV FROM LLOYD'S.
