The fact was, that a gross insult had been conveyed from Mr. Winston to Mr. Glossop through the servant of the latter ; and instead of treating it with the contcmptt it deserved, he was imprudently betrayed intathia personal conflict. It was clear that he did not mean to do Mr. Winston any personal injury, for he had only chastised him with a lady's horsewhip, and thereby only meaning to express his sense of the insult he had received. The blow which he afterwards gave was provoked, as he was instructed, by the plaintiff' having used his walking-stick in his defence. The de fendant, however, must submit to a verdict; and the Jury would take all the circumstances into their consideration. For FIRE, and LIFE INSURANCE, and ANNUITIES.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC. 13. WRIGHT V. WRIGHT. Mr. FREDERICK POLLOCK read the declaration. Mr. SCARLETT stated the case to the Jury. The plaintiff, Mr. John Wright, was a respectable wine and brandy merchant and spirit retail dealer, residing in Ratcliffe highway. The de fendant was his first cousin ; and was a linen merchant, residing at Norwich, and also a man in a very respectable line of trade. The plaintiff's wife was from that part of the country ; she was from North Walsham, in the County of Norfolk, and was the daughter of the Coroner of that County. Mr. Abraham Lemmon produced the register of that mar riage at North Walsham, in the County of Norfolk. Sarah Hubbard knew the plaintiff, Mr. Wright, as well as his wife, who was a relation of her's before her marriage. Wit ness lived six years with them at Ratcliffe Highway. They lived together very happily. Mrs. Wright served always at the bar of her house, and seemed active in the business. Cross-examined—lt was a gin-shop in Ratcliffe Highway, and Mrs. Wright served out the liquor at the bar. Mrs. Mary Stewart visited the family ; and for the last time in August, 1820, when she staid there three days ; they lived very comfortably, just as happily as other married people did. Harriett Bankes lived as servant of all work with the plaintiff at Ratcliffe since last September twelvemonth. She saw the defendant for the first time there last March, when he came in late in the evening, and slept at the house. On another day he came and staid until 12 o'clock ; he supped with her master, and she served him at the table. About three o'clock on the fola lowing day, he came and dined at the house ; she over-heard him express a desire to her master to go to the play ; her master objected, as he said it was late ; but a coach was sent for, and both he and her master went away in it. Witness had orders from Mrs. Wright to get the spare bed ready for him (defend ant) oh that night. The two men (plaintiff and defendant) went to the play about half-past 8 o clock, but about half past 9 the defendant returned alone, and she then first saw him in the kitchen with her mistress, which was an unusual place for the latter at that hour. Witness saw her mistress unex pectedly in the kitchen at that time, for she generally staid at the bar when her mistress was out. She saw Mr. Wright the defendant, in the kitchen kissing her mistress , and his band down her bosom. On being disturbed by witness, they both withdrew into the parlour. At eleven o'clock iey were in nearly the same position as when she saw them in the kitchen. They were standing together near the mantle-piece, but they moved away on seeing her,—one at one side of the fire, and her mistress at the other. Jane Shuffery lived in the plaintiff's service, and knew the defendant, Wight. She remembered the last occasion when he came to the house and slept there. She recollected his dining there, and going with the plaintiff in a coach to the play. That was the first night he ever slept in the house. After dinner, and just before they went out, the defendant said he should sleep there that night; her master laughed at him, and said he was joking, for as he had taken lodgings at a coffee-house, he did not think he was serious. She remembered the defendant's soon returning, and telling her mistress that he left master at the play. She (mistress) then quitted the bar, quite against her custom, and staid an hour and a half in the parlour with de fendant, without alight. It was in March. Matthew Wiggins was a servant or cellarman to Mr. Wright for two years. He knew defendant, who occasionally visited in the house; he recollected his coming in the month of March of last year. The witness said that while in the kitchen, he heard a noise as if the chairs were moving about in the parlour. He told the servant maid that he would go and see What they were " doing on." Ile pulled off his shoes, and walked along the passage ta the parlour as softly as he could. Witness went round to the bar, where there were no lights ; the door from the bar to the parlour was open ; he knelt on a mat which was at that door, and peeped in, at the corner of the door, which was a-jar.---i Here the witness described the position in which lie saw his mistress and the defendana in the parlour when he peeped in, and which left no doubt of the fact of adultery.l Mr. GURNEY addressed the Jury for the defendant. They had here no seduction, no arts, no deceit. A. to the condition of the woman, she was, as they had heard, merely serving in a gin-shop, and possibly romping with the defendant in the man ner her maids sometimes do, and out of that perhaps was fram ed the whole case. if the Jury thought this was case for damages, he was sure they would think with him that the smallest damages would be quite sufficient for such a transaction. Lord Chief Justice ABBOTT, in charging the Jury, said, that the first question which they had to consider was, whether they believed the adultery had been committed. If they believed the witness Wiggins, then, upon that point, there could be no doubt, for on his testimony the proof rested, the other witnesses merely speaking to acts of impropriety, but not amounting to the prin cipal act. With respect to the question of damages, it was true that this case was unattended with the points of aggrava tion which sometimes are found in such offences. They would, of course, look at the plaintifrs situation, at the injury he had received, and at the probable means at the disposal of the de. fendant. They would consider these circumstances dispas sionately, and appal don the damages which they deemed ap plicable to a case of this character. The Jury consulted together for about five minutes, and then returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 1001. WINSTON V. GLOSSOPP. This was an action against the defendant for an alleged assault and battery. The defendant pleaded first the general issue, not Guilty, and second son assault demeene. The plaintiff's case was conducted by Mr. SCARLE TT and Mr. J. `WILLIAMS ; and the defendant's by the SOLICITOR. GENERAL, Mr. CASBERD and Mr. ADOLPHUS. The plaintiff's case was in substance this i—ln May last, when his. Majesty visited Drury-lane Theatre, of which the plaintiff is Stage Manager, orders had been given to keep the lobbies clear of strangers during his Majesty's entrance into and departure from the theatre. The defendant, who is proprietor of the Collura; Theatre, and one of his Majesty's honourable Band of Pensioners, being in attendance on his Majesty on that occa sion, had sent his own servant to the theatre to wait for him in case he should be wanted. The servant having stationed him self in one of the lobbies, the plaintiff, in obedience to the in structions he had received, desired him to withdraw, using an expression, as was alleged by the defendant, of an offensive na ture, which being communicated to the defendant, he determin ed to resent it on the first occasion of his meeting the plaintiff:, It was proved in evidence, that the defendant on the Ilth of May, two days after his Majesty had been at the Theatre, called at the stage door, and inquired, whether the plaintiff was in the house. Ile was informed that he was, and an offer was made to bring Mr. Winston to him, but the defendant said he did not want him then ; he, however, wished to know at what hour the plaintiff usually left the theatre to go to dinner. Ile was informed that he was a very punctual man, and that he generally left, the house about ten minutes before four o'clock. This was about 12 o'clock, and about 20 minutes before four in the afternoon of the same day the defendant stationed himself with a horse whip in his hand at a hatter's shop, nearly opposite the stage door in Little Drury-lane, to wait for Mr. Winston's exit from the theatre. At four o'clock the plaintiff came into the street for the purpose of going to dinner, when the defendant instantly crossed over and began to horsewhip the plaintiff; giving . him several blows across the shoulders. The plaintiff, who is an elderly Gentleman, and rather low in stature, held up his walk ing cane to ward off the blows, upon which the defendant, who was stated to be a gentleman between 34 and 35 years of age, of a powerful frame of body, and greatly superior in strength to the plaintiff, changed the whip to the left hand, and with his right hand, struck the plaintiff a violent blow on the face, which blackened both his eyes. One of the spectators interposed, and remonstrated with Mr. Glossop upon the craelty of so treat ing a man so much inferior to him in size. The defendant immediately said that the plaintiff had insulted his (Mr. Glos sop's) servant, and had turned him out of the lobby of the theatre, using the expression, " turn out the lamplighter," In continuation, ne said that he would horsewhip Mr. w inston wherever he met him, and adding "now you shall see," and resumed the use of the whip, striking the plaintiff several ad ilitional blows. The parties then separated. One witnesasaid, that Sir. Glossop, in addressing the plaintiff, observed " know that my servant is a Gentleman, but you are a scoundrel and a blackguard," or words to that effect. It did not appear that Mr. Winston had given the defendant any provocation at tile time this outrage was committed, nor was there any evidence of any previous cause of offence. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL addressed the Jury on benalf of the defendant, and admitted that they must find a verdict against the defendant, and the only question for them to consider was the amount of their damages. In considering that question, they must take into account the rational probability that 31r. Glossop had 'received some gross insult to justify the intemper ance into which lie had been betrayed ; for it was hardly to be believed that he could act in the manner proved without sonic COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, DEC. 15. FOWELL, GENT. V. CAMPBELL. Mi. PLATT opened the pleadings, from which it appeared that this was an action brought by the plaintiff, an attorney, against the defendant, one of the clerks in the Custom-house, for driving his chaise against that of the plaintiff, and thereby injuring the plaintiff's wife. The damages were laid. at 60.4. and the defendant had pleaded not guilty. Mr. Serjeant PELL stated the case to the Jury. Mr. Lee Thomas,,a surgeon, who was called in to attend Mrs. Powell after the accident, stated that the injury was so great that a mortification appeared likely to follow ; the injury arose from one of the wheels having gone over the right leg of Mrs. Powell ; her health suffered considerably. Richard Neal; a fruiterer, residing in the City Road, proved that on the evening in question, he had seen Mr. Powell coin ing into London at the rate of six or seven miles an hour ; the road was about 41 feet broad ; the defendant was going towards Pentonville at the same time ; he was not then whipping his poney at a furious rate ; plaintiff was on the left side, within two or three feet of the path; defendant was coming from town on the same side, but nearer to the pavement than the plaintiff; he was indeed on the path ; defendant's gig came in contact with Mr. Fowell's chaise, and broke the shafts, and beth plain tiff and his wife were thrown out. Witness thought defendant was in liquor, from the abusive language he used ; the plain tiff's horse was a very spirited animal ; and the defendant's was only a poney. Other witnesses also proved the circumstances of the.case. Samuel Dougall, a coachmaker, repaired the plaintiff's gig ; the expence was nearly 141. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN, for the defendant, contended, that the circumstances which had been proved certainly . did not en title the plaintiff to any heavy damages. He admitted that the defendant was at the time inebriated. Lord Chief Justice DALLAS observed that drunkenn-ess was no excuse for criminality, nor any defence, in civil cases, except where the validity of contracts was the question for the decision of a Jury. The Jury, considering all the circumstances of the case, would be governed by sound discretion in their verdict. The Jury consulted for about five minutes, and then gave a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages, 3.501 MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. On Saturday Sarah Bishop was indicted for inciting Susan nah Burnman to rob her own father. Mr. ADOLPHUS said that this was a prosecution against is prisoner, for prevailing on the daughter of a respectable trades man to commit various robberies upon her own father; by her persuasions, she had been in the habit of doing for three or four years. [The circumstances of this case have already been stated in THE SUN, and need not be repeated.] Mr. ALLE't submitted that the case could not be pressed any further, for by the girl's evidence she was the thief, and the prisoner was the accessary, and that, therefore, the felony merged in the misdemeanor. Mr. ADOLPIIUS supported the contrary position. The Court over-ruled the objection, by observing that the solicitation, or incitement, was in itself an offence. The prisoner called a great number of witnesses to her good character, some of whom spoke to the honesty and propriety of her conduct for the last twenty years. In consequence of Mr. ALLEN'S having submitted that the Jury could only consider their verdict on the evidence which bore on the fourth count in the indictment (that of procuring the Misses Burnman to steal money by the aid of a false key), one of the Jury inquired whether or not they were to return a general verdict, or confine their judgment to that count only The 0-lAllOlAX—'The only thing I can say is, that the evi dence presses equally upon every count in the indictment; and if she is found guilty upon one, she will be found guilty upon every count.—The Jury consulted a short time, and returned a verdict of Guilty. The Court, after some consideration, sentenced the prisoner to Twelve Months' imprisonment in the House of Correction. CONSOLATION. - When the necessaries of life rose so exceedingly high, that wheat filrched twenty shillings the bushel, and beef nine‘pi per lb., " every body" declared we were ruis.ed —it was impossible to live, notwithstanding the art of cookery during that day arrived at the very acme of perfection. Now there is a probability of the " good old times," the happy days that have been sung in our ears for ages past, are likely to return, " every body" is still of the same opinion ; they all declare we shall be ruined, and that we must give up the dainty dishes, for it is impossible to procure them. Monday, at an adjourned meeting of the landed gentry of Renfrewshire, held with a view to the further consideration of the Corn Laws, the Assembly came to three resolutions ; of which ; one maintained the necessity of revising the pre sent corn laws ; the second, that a protecting duty would be better than a prohibition like the present ; and the third recommended a corre spondence with other counties, in order to ham( a petition to Parliament for relief. A FEMALE SHARK.--The ship Brailsford, or her passage from Bombay to England, lat. 29 26, S. long. 40, 2, E. caught a large blue female shark, 12 feet long ; on opening which there were found no less than 77 young ones alive, each about a foot long, and weighing from on( half to three quarters of a pound.—(Brightor, Herald.) One day last week a child of about four months old, belonging to a woman of the name of PECK HAM, who lives near Lewes, cried in a most ve hement manner, without any apparent Cause The mother had recourse to the usual method o' rolling the child in her lap, and rubbing its sto. mach, thinking to give it ease. But the littli innocent continued crying, or rather screamilq; most violently, until the mother fainted fron fatigue and fright. The child was undres3ed and closely examined by the neighbours, when to their utter astonishment, they found, near thi child's navel, and just through the skin, the en( of a common sewing needle, which had heel forced by some means or other into the infant' stomach ! The pain arising from this, particu larly when the child was rubbed or pressed must of course have been most acute. The needl was immediately drawn out, and the infant i doing well.
