Mr. Southey was riding so as apparently` to prevent Mr. Coppock from getting away from them. I saw Mr. Haslam by 'the rails after Mr. Coppock bad made his es cape. Mr. Haslam and Mr. Southey were conversing toge ther, and Mr. Haslam said " Served him right if they had n URGESS'S NEW SAUCE, for general pur- Lcposes, having gained such great approbation, and the demand for it continuing to increase, JOHN BURGESS and SON beg moat respectfully to offer thus their best acknowledgments to the Public for their liberal patronage of the same ; its utility and great conveni ence in all climates have recommended it to the most distinguished foreign connections, who have all spoken highly in its recommenda tion.

He then went away, and in a mirmte or two Henry Browne and William Lowe came in. The proper de finition for William Lowe is one of the Barnwell bullies. Lowe is the same. They called for two glasses of ale. One of them asked how things were going one. I said I did not know what they meant. They said with regard to politics. I said I thought all that was at an end now. Lowe said, " Your hair stands on end, as if you were frightened." I said I saw nothing to be frightened at. Browne and Lowe sail, " If you see nothing to be frightened at now, you will soon." Th.. ale was brought, each sipped, and some one outside called " Bill Lowe," and Lowe and Browne both left the room. I went out to see what was the matter. I saw Mr. ,Coppock close to a ditch in a field, and Smith and others running after him. Mr. Coppock was running. He leaped at the ditch, and A. Smith after him. Ho got out f.f the ditch before Smith could recover himself, and ran across the common. The o'her men crossed the ditch and followed him. I cannot mention who the others were. Browne and Lowe went down the other way towards Cambridge. I fol lowed Lowe and 13rowne. They went down Brunswick walk to Midsummer-common. I saw on the common Mr. Coppock and several others. I saw Mr. Southey there on horseback. He said, This is one of.these Whig rascals—this is Coppock. I did not see anything of Haslam after I saw hits} in Payne's house. I went past the house, but did not see any one in it. I saw Haslam standing at the door, watching at the door, end when he saw me he drew himself in, and so 1 dodged him to keep my eye upon him. Cross-examined by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL—I had no particular reason for watching Haslam. I watched him be , cause there was something suspicious about him. My attention was called to him by an individual in the house. I carry on the business of a baker in Cambridge. li&metimes take an active part in the politics of the borough. Eden-street is in 'the parish of St. Andrew the Less, which is sometimes called Barnwell. I was imprisoned for my misfortunes seven years ago last Midsummer. I was in prisoti twelve weeks.

TEA • MARKET, N o . 8, LUDGATE HILL LONDON. _ _ ;au .uled Teal (' ) IITRRENCY FALLACIES REFUTED, and PAPER MONEY VINDICATED. Second Edition. Price SIDNEY and HALL, Proprietors. The New Year opens with more cheering prospects for the - Tea Consumer; than for many previous seasons. War, rapine, and injus tice have given place to peace and friendship. The glories of the Celestial Empire are no longer veiled in mystery to the Western Hemisphere. An extended field is opened to the energies of the British merchant , --we trust for successful enterprise. Ages yet to follow will admire the firmness which has successfully overcome the rooted preju dices of thousands of years ; and the ingenious millions whd populate the vast territories of China, will hail the event that opens to their industry the commercial freedom of the civilised world. One of the many advantages of peace over war to the community is best shown by reference to the comparative value of Tea in 1840 and 1844: — Value of common Congou (exclusive of duty) in February 1840 .. 2s. 9d. to 3s. and 3s. 4d. per lb. Value of common Congou (exclusive of duty) in February 1844 ..... —lld. to Is. and Is. 2d. per lb. Making a difference of two hundred per cent., or thrice the value of Tea, in the time of war over the present rates. We recommend fa milies to pay for a Common Breakfast Tea, 3s. 4d. per lb. ; for a strong full-bodied Congou, 3s. 8(1. or 4s. per lb. ; for the finest Congou imported, ss: per lb. ; and for the most delicious Souchong, ss. Gd. per lb. The two latter Teas are of very rare quality.

His Lordship 'then ; sent' into the Court of Fxchequer to borrow eight jury men, Ai& loan, after some delay was granted, and a jury thus complek; Some little doubt was expressed by counsel as to the validity of a verdict, in a special jury case, given by a jury thus peculiarly summoned and constituted; but the Lord Chief Justice at once overruled it, and ordered the case to proceed. The Counsel for the plaintiff were Mr. Cockburn, Mr. Kinglake, and Mr. Bircham ; and for the several defendants, six in number, Sir William Follett, Mr. Thesiger, Mr. Platt, Mr. Wordsworth, Mr. B. Andrews, and Mr. Naylor. The witnesses, on both sides, having been ordered out of Court, Mr. BIRCHAM said the declaration charged that, on the 22d of April, 1843, the defendants, George Haslam, Richard Southey, John Smith, Abraham S mith, John Payne, William Lowe, and Henry Browne, at a place called Barn well, near to a o .tb Cambridge,epla i ntiff,did, with James f orc e c o o f p arms,Coppock c t o c " which the defendants had severally pleaded no t g uilty. Mr. COCKBURN, in stating the c ase , sa id th e plaintiff was a gentleman of the name of C o pp o ck, w ho complained of a grcss and cowardly assau lt an d ill usage, beat, bruise, for which he now sought to recover compensation and dpaamr:iagmesebntyatrhyeaigr agent. The e d il ef e en w da a n a t a s gheentwlearnsainnswtrbuoc b e a , d long been most respectably known in this metro polis as a solicitor and Southey, practised as a surgeon at ambridge ; Haslam td of various callings and situations in life . The defendant, Mr. formerly a butler for m Cambridge.whohad many years in a gentleman's fa mily ; but had since retired from that occupation ; and Payne:had, for twenty-five years, been under-gaoler, or gaoler, he knew not which, but had been dismissed from that employ ment. The other defendants, John Smith, Abraham Smith, bitasbcihtaorfacfrteegruetontlyallvis7trnsgo,nswere w a s Lowe, and Browne, were living at a place very well known by Barn well, a place not very far distant from Cambridge, and which though doubtless, containing some highly respectable inhabi tants was equally, if not ,more, remarkable for the number of its low ones. John Smith was known as a gipsy, and was in the habit of attending fairs ; Lowe Ile was an assistant to his father, who followed the occupation of orud alluded were to in ti,. e a nightman ; Brown was one of those called a gentleman at large, and lived in this far-famed Barnwell. 'fhe circumstances of the assault for which reparation was sought at their hands were briefly these :—Mr. Coppock, as he had -before stated, was a Parliamentary agent. In the session of last year there was a vacancy in the representation for Cambridge, and a dis tinguished member of the bar was proposed by a certain por tion of the constituency as their candidate, and was returned. On the sth of April a petition questioning the propriety and validity of this return of this Host, and Learned Gentleman — he alluded to his friend Mr. Fitzroy Kelly—and seeking to have it avoided, was presented to the House of Commons. That petition was ordered by the House to be taken into consi deration on the 15th May. After the presentation of this petition the plaintiff, Mr. Coppock, was appointed agent on the part of the petitioners, to support the allegations in that petition, and wrench the seat from the sitting Member, Mr' Kelly. The jury, he presumed, were aware that the duties of an agent in conducting these matters were of avery anxious and responsible character, requiring great discrimination, Per severance, and judgment. Mr. Coppock, in this capacity , had to sift out and prepare the necessary evidence, in order that when the case had to be taken into consideration, counsel might be duly pre pared to go into the merits, and, if proper to be done, carry out the object fer which the petition Ras presented. To t end, it became his duty to go down to Cambr id g e and get u p the evidence in the case. In discharge of that cluty . , d mi th ta e kin h g of April, in the last year, he proceeded to Car" 1 rocrelegding with up his quarters at the Hoop Inn, and quiet y p us per his affairs. When there, of course , h e had vario s ons to see, in order to take down thei r evidence, that it might be submitted to counsel for their opinion. Mr. Coppock's presence was nee e ily very well known in Cam bridge, as were the objects for which he arrived there. On reaching Cambridge he bad, with a most proper and courteous spirit, put himself in communication with Mr. Hancock, the Tory agent, in order that, while each conducted his own case as he thought best for the interest of his party, yet that every thing should be done with propriety and a total absence of dis courtesy on both sides. The news of Mr. Coppock's arrival of course spread like wildfire. H e believed he (NIT.. Cockburn) did not say too much when he asserted that all his movements were carefully watched—he was dodged everywhere. The excitement of the recent election, which had scarcely begun to die away, was increased, if possible, at soon as it was known that his client had arrived. He remained there several days, and no secret being made of the object of his visit —and why should there be—every one was cognizant of his presence. During his inquiries in Cambridge it came to Mr. Coppock's ears, that he might perhaps gain some information most useful to his purpose from a Mr. Smithers, who kept a public house in the su • immediate vicinity of Barnwell. He would submit to them a plan of this • place and the localities surrounding it, the better that they might understand the case he had t o ! ay b e f ore them. If any of them recollecte d Cambridge, they would know that the road from Cambridge to Barnwell passed along Midsum mer Common, near to Jesus College, and so on to the Maid's Causeway. The Rainbow, the name of the public-house kept by Mr. Smithers, was at the corner of a street which was, in fact, a sort of adjunct to this comm on. On Frid a y, t h e 21 st o f April, at about the hour o f one c lock,o a Ir. Coppock started from Gambridge by himself, .d A of course quite openly, to go to the house of Mr. Smith ers. N ow , the chief allegations in th e petition presented to the House of Commons against the return of Mr. Kelly were for bribery and treating ; and amongst them was a charge that Smithers himself had received a bribe, and that Southey was the person who gave it to him. Mr. Coppock having reached the Rain bow at Barnwell saw Mr. Smithers, t - 0 whom he communi cated his business, and they retired to a private room to talk it over. Shortly after they had entered this room Southey, , one of the defendants, entere d the Rainb ow , and saw Mrs. Smithers and asked if Smithers was at home. She denied that he was at home. Southey said he was sure he was at home, and that he had gone into the back room with another party. She again denied it. He then wanted to go into the back room but she refused him, and when he tried to do so, Mrs. Smithers resisted him. His horse was at the door. He got upon it and went from the house towards a street immediately in the neigh bourhood, called Albert-street, where he fell in with Haslam, whether accidentally or not, he (Mr. Cockburn) would not then give an opinion. He however should show them there, by his witnesses, in close and earnest conversation. Southey, whilst talking w ith Haslam, took out a piece of paper and wrote upon it, and this circumstance, coupled with another fact which would hereafter come out, they (th e j ury ) wou ld find to be of great importance in the case. This done, Southey on horseback, and Haslam on foot, went down to No. 30, Maid's Causeway, which was the house kept by an other of the defendants, Payne. Southey, after staying a few minutes, quitted tke house, leaving Haim there; but person heard what he required, he told him he could not attend to him then upon that subject, but that he must go and find Lowe (another of the defendants), and tell him that he (Southey) wanted him, that he must come there directly, bringing others of their party with him, as there was a person there he wished to be watched. Southey, having done this, left Haslam, and went back to a street which, though not im mediately fronting the Rainbow, still was so situated as to allow him ample means cf observing the ingress and egress of every one. By that time those persons of a lower class, who had been summoned, had arrived, and Southey pointed his finger beckoning to them, on which some of them re sponded to him To one of these he gave a piece of paper, and they went down together towards the Rainbow, when John Smith stopped, and Abraham Smith went into the Rain bow. He asked Mrs. Smithers if Mr. Coppock was there, and she replied, " No, he was not." He rejoined, " Yes, he is, and I have got a letter for him," his object being, of course, to make quite sure of him. Mrs. Smithers saw through this ruse, and would not take the letter. Accord ingly, seeing she was determined, Abraham Smith went away, taking the letter with him. In the meantime Haslam and Payne had made their way to the Rainbow, where a con siderable concourse of persons had assembled. Nearly all the parties were about and in front of the Rainbow. The house beginning to get filled rapidly, and by a certain class of per sons, Mrs. Smithers, naturally enough, became alarmed,went into the roam where her husband and Mr. Coppock were engaged, and begged that gentleman at once, to make the hest of his way home. Smithers himself, (the landlord as he bad before said), seeing the class of persons coming into his house and congregating around, recommended Mr. Coppock to leave it without delay—taking Twiss's field as the best way for him to get on the common, and thence by the public road to Cam bridge. Accordingly Mr. Coppock left the house by the back way, and proceeded by the route which had been pointed out to him. But no sooner had he got half-way across Twiss'a field than it became visible enough to him that he was to be mobbed and probably most grossly ill-treated. All at once a loud yell was raised, and he heard the words " There he goes, there he goes." Lowe and another of the defendants had, when they entered the Rainbow, called for some beer and were then drink ing it, when Smith rushed in and called out " Bill Lowe you are wanted." They both rushed out in an instant, and then again a loud shout uas set up. Hearing the shout, Mr. Coppock turned round, and saw he was hotly pur sued. Now his client was a man whose powers were not to be despised, and he had no doubt that, against one good, strong man—fairly man to man—he would give a pretty:good account of any one who might dare to assail him ; but what was all the courage aad physical force of an individual when striving against numbers? In his coat-pocket, however, Mr. Coppock had a document, which, to the cause he was sent down, as the agent, to obtain evidence upon, was of the utmost importance—it was, in fact, the deposition of the very man whose evidence, above all others, it was Mr. Coppock's duty at that time to get possession of, and to keep secure. With such a document in his pocket, Mr, Coppock very properly reflected on the words of the poet, that " the better part of valour is discretion.", He, therefore, made for the ditch which separated the field from the common. He was pursuedby the mob; and Abraham Smith, more active than the rest, just as Mr. Coppock cleared the ditch, sprang after him, throwing him down in so doing, and then jumped upon him. Five or six others, who had rapidly fol lowed, were soon upon Mr. Coppock also. They beat him about, struck him violently, and one of the ruffians tried to tear off the pockets of his coat, expecting, no doubt, to get hold of that for which, chiefly, such ruffians had been em ployed—the documents he had alluded to. Mr. Coppock made the best fight he could, and being a man, fortunately, of some strength, he saved himself from much of the brutal violence that a weaker man would inevitably have had to undergo. In the meantime, those who were the prime movers in this brutal and blackguard assault of many upon one, but who, with cha racteristic cowardice, had taken care to take no active part in it themselves, had gone round, and, following the course the field took, soon got round. This was net the work of more than a minute or two. Southey, Haslam, and Payne, were the parties who thus ran round. Payne, however, could not keep his hands off Mr. Coppock. Assailed as that gentleman was by so many, he not only took part in mobbing him and shoving him along, but ho actually struck him two or three blows. Southey was also there on horse- back ; and having, at all events, the, external appearance of a gentleman, Mr. Coppock made an appeal to him to use his in fluence to sate him from insult and outrage. He appealed to Southey, stating the manner in which he had been used, and would"tloubtless be used again, unless he got some one to take his part and stand by him. What was this person's reply ? " Oh, you are a d—d Whig; I wish they had given you ten times as much, and I hope they will do so." Haslam used lan guage a the same effect. However, the scuffle went on—they mobbing and lugging him on, and using the vilest language to encourage others to join in their violence. At last, after making the best sort of running fight that he could they reached Bruns wick-place, where Mr. Coppock knocked at a door which was most properly instantly opened to him, and where protection was accorded and the police sent for. These were the simple facts of the case. New, he (Mr. Cockburn) begged to inform the jury, that he was not instructed to exaggerate this ease— fl was not instructed to say that his client had sustained any serious injury, or injury that might in its results be of any per manent inconvenience to him. Nothing of the kind. This, however, the facts of the case required him to say that Mr. Coppock had got on the occasion alluded to, what was called at school "a ver) sound licking." But it was not that which Mr. Coppock now cared about, although, of course, neither he nor any other person liked a beating at the time of receiving it, especially when it was as unprovoked as it was cowardly, It was the insult to himself, to society, to the law, and to the decencies of life which Mr. Coppock desired to resent, and for which he wished to make then parties pay. He would put it to the jury if any one of them was a solicitor or agent, and found himself called upon to act for a party, and did so without molestation or offes:ce to any person breathing—if, as he said, in so doing, one of them found himself hustled, his hat thrust over his face, his clothes torn, and his person assaulted, by a set of the lowest fellows in one of the lowest places in England—would he not seek redress from the laws of his country ? There would be an end to the security of society, to the transaction of all business whatssevers •if an individual acting as Mr. Cop pock was acting, could not do so without being brutally as saulted by a party of ruffians. For every transaction like that the party aggrieved had a right to expect from British law and British justice the completest reparation. He should show them (the jury) who were the actual parties engaged in this cowardly assault, or who were the disgraceful instruments to urge them on to it. He would show further that on the day following this disgraceful transaction Southey had boasted of it. He (Mr. Cockburn) admitted it would be of little advantage to get a verdict and damages against some of the defendants, for they were of that class of men who, having nothing to lose, cared little what they did, and he supposed their first effort would be after the trial was over to get to the Insolvent Court as fast as they could to pray for relief from penalties which would doubtlessly be awarded against them. They must however fasten upon one or two of those who had influenced them, and this he had little d,abt of being able clearly to do. Those were the persons who ought to be made to pay for thus inciting people to outrage and vio lence upon an unoffending man. He was satisfied there could be but one feeling amongst Englishmen that outrage and violence must be checked upon what ever occasion, or under whatever pretence occurring; and that an individual in the quiet and honest pur suance of his avocations should not be set upon by a parcel of ruffians, either to be made a laughing-stock of for the public, or the victim of private malice or political revenge. What solicitor, what agent, would undertake any business, if he was to be subjected in the quiet performance of it to attacks such as this? No one in that Court, he was sure, would admit there was, or could be, any justification for such conduct. Haslam, he understood, was, in his defence, to have the advantage of that distinguished man the Solicitor-General ; others of the defendants were t o b e ass i s t e d b y th e t a l en t s of equally distin guished Counsel; but he (Mr. Cockburn) did not believe that any one of them would endeavour for a single instance to justify the outrage which had been committed, and for which redress was now sought. They might endeavour to show that there was not sufficient evidence to link them closely and fully with the transaction; they might endeavour to show that they were not legally liable to the consequences of the outrage ; but that they would attempt any justification of it, not ono of them, he was sure, would dream of for a moment. He repeated he sought not damages for bodily injuries sustained—he approached not the jury with any exaggerated statements—but he did ask for damages for a gross and unprovoked insult and assault, and to such an amount as would satisfy the justice of the case and vindicate the supremacy of the law. Whatever those damages might be, they would never find their way into the pockets of the plaintiff, but to some other source,—for personal gain was the last object of his thoughts in bringing this matter before a jury. His client brought it wholly from a sense of duty, and not from personal gain, or with any feeling whatever of personal vindictiveness. It might be said, on the other side—why do you bring it to London at all ?—why do you not leave it to the ordinary tribunals of the district wherein the outrage occurred ? Ile could easily answer that to the satisfaction of those he had the honour to address. The fact was, that in all those Parliamentary matters—in all ques tions of elections, petitions, and the like, there was a degree of local prejudice—and it occurred as much on one side as on the other—which rendered it desirable, in order to get at the full merits and do substantial justice, that they should be in vestigaLsd at a distance from the place where they occurred, and amongst people who were unbiassed one way or the other. In that Court personal feelings could not enter into the dis cussion of the matter, or for one moment be thought by any partisan whatever to interfere with the impartial administration of the laws. The simple question for them (the jury) to de cide was this : had there not been a most unprovoked, and vio lent assault upon the plaintiff, and, if so, ought not the de fendants, if proved guilty of it, to be subjected to exemplary damages for the part they had taken in it, or the encourage ment ed With by thesevr. K April, about two o'clock, few it 4 remarks, GLAK I h he left e f a baker at Cambridge. On th e 21st oft i m t e in the t therethands is Newberry, had given to oef i rvtrehye, jury, ex i a t in confident of the issue. Robert 1 went to the Rainbow. I sa w M r. Co pp ock there, a nd I be lieve he went into the back room. Soon after Mr. Coppock came, Mr. Southey arrived on horseback. He dismounted , came into the house, and spoke to Mrs. Smithers. He wanted to know who was in the back room. She said, a gentleman taking ale. He said, is Smithers at home ? and she said, No, he is not at home. lie said, I know he is at home • and he tried to push his way towards the doer. She went before hire, sav i n g, You shall not go in there, Sir ; the gentleman is en gaged. He then left the house, re-mounted his horse, and went towards a street known as Albert-street. Before he got to this street, I saw Mr. Haslam join him. I did not see where he came from. I saw them both together for some time at the corner of Albert-street. I should say they were there for full ten minutes. Mr. Southey was writing something on a piece of paper. Southey and Mr. Haslam then left Albert-street, and went past the Rainbow, towards Cambridge, to a private house, of a person of the name of Payne. Haslam went into Payne. Southey came back from Payne's, after Haslam bad gone in, and went again into the Rainbow. He inquired of Mrs. Smithers again who was in the room, and again she refused to tell. Then he left the Rainbow. A person of the name of Abraham Smith then came into the Rainbow. This was two or three minutes after Southey left. He asked if Mr. Cop pock was there, speaking the name in a curious sort of way, and she said there was no such person there. He said he bad Cross .examined by Mr. THESIGER—I do not take an active part in politics. Ido not know what you mean by a passive part. At times I may take an active part. I did not do so at the last election. I was not on a Committee, and I did not fetch up a single voter. I came up with the witnesses at the time of the petition. I have not the charge of the wit nesses in this case. I eatre u t with them. We are staying at No. 5, Little Smith-street. I cannot say if we were all there. There were eight or nine there this morning at breakfast. When I was shepherd to the witnesses on the election petition, I was employed by Mr. Gunning, but Mr. Coppock paid me. I received Si. from him altogether for myself and my expenses, that was all I received from him. I did not receive a farthing from Mr. Gunning. Mr. Coppock called in Smith-street this morning ; that is the only time that I have seen Mr. Coppock. He said nothing to me about the evidence I was to give. He asked me and I said you will know when I come into Court. I had not told him what evidence I should give. He had papers with him ; I did not tell him because he never asked me. He did not go through the routine of the brief. If I had told him the Court might have considered there was something wrong in it; that was the reason. I had been told that if an attorney came to you and examined you that would"make your case null and void. I did not consider I had any reason to tell him. Mr. Coppock's clerk took my evidence in Cambridge. He asked me in a jocular sort of way, and it was because I thought he was not serious that I did not answer him. By Mr. PLATT-Mr. Kelly's party bad colours, but Ido net think the poor Whigs bad any. There were blue and white favours ; those are the Whig colours. I did not wear any colours at the last election. We were taken to Little Smith -street by the coachman ; we did not pay our carriage up. I have heard that Mr. Southey is a surgeon, but do not know ; I never saw his diploma. I was in town with the witnesses on the petition for eight days. I had no more than Si. from the commencement of the election to the present time from Mr. Coppock or from any one else. Re-examined by Mr. Kuval.Axx—l received no more money from Mr. Coppock than the 81. ' Mary Ann Smithers—l am landlady of the Rainbow. I re member the last election for Cambridge. I remember a gen tleman coming to my house a month after the election. I un derstood it was Mr. Coppock. I saw him this morning. He came about one o'clock. After he bad been there a short time Mr. Southey came in. He asked who was in the little room. I said I did not know. There were two gentlemen taking ale. He went out and returned, and again asked who was there. I told him some one taking ale, and he could not go there. He went out again. After Mr. Southey had gone out, Abraham Smith brought a note directed to Mr. Coppock. I said I did not know any gentleman of that name. After that W. Lowe and H. Browne came in and had some ale. They had not time to drink it before they left. I went once into the room where Mr. Coppock and my husband were, and told them that the house was beset. I know 11 , ,bert Newberry, he was in the house at the time. Cross-examined by Mr. THESIGFR—Mr. Coppock was not at the Rainbow more than two hours. Mr. Tis ESIG ER—ls the man Smithers whom you have called your husband really your husband? Witness—l have gone by the name of Smithers some time. I have lived with him 15 years. Mr. THESIG ER—Do you not know that he has a wife and children living. Witness—He has children, but the mother of them is dead. I have lived with him fifteen years, and he has always behaved well to me as a husband. Ido not know if he has a wife living ; I never saw her. I did not read the direc tion of the letter Smith brought. I did not know the gentle man's name was Coppock until about five in the afternoon. He had been gone a long time when I he rd his name for the first time. I have been stopping with the other witnesses. I only saw Mr. Coppock this morning. By Mr. PLATT—There was a gentleman with Mr. Coppock this morning. I do not recollect seeing him yesterday. I sometimes take in lodges s. They stay until they want to go. Re-examined by Mr. COCKBURN—My husband keeps a public-house, and has a license—we pay for it dearly. John Viner examined by Mr. COCK BURN—I am a student. On the 21st of April I was passing the Newmarket-road. I saw Mr. Coppock running across a field at the back of the Rainbow. 'I here is a ditch which separates it from Mid summer-common. Smith come out of the Rainbow and went towards the fence. I afterwards saw three or four persons in the close. I saw Payne and Newberry in front of the Rainbow. There were numbers of per sons standing there. I heard Smith, the gipsy, say to Payne, Is this Twist's field ? Payne said, Yes it is • go it, my boys, I will keep you harmless. They th en c l am bered over into the field, and ran after Mr. Coppock. I don't know if they over took him. I went down to Brunswick-walk. It is about one hundred and fifty yards from the common. Smith's brother ran in that direction. I saw Tuck and Payne. I went to a house in Brunswick-walk, and I saw Mr. Coppock turning round by a brick wall. His pursuers overtook him, and one of them struck him on the hat. They called him obscene names. Smith struck him on the hat. I saw two ; ersons on horseback, but did not see who they were. They all seemed very infuriated against Mr. Coppock. I opened the gate, and let Mr. Coppock into one of the houses in Brunswick-walk.l Cross-examined by Mr. THESIG ER—I am not a member of the University. I live at home with my parents, and can study there. My father has houses in Barnwell. I knew Mr. Payne before ; he is an old man. I know a person named Jarman. I did not see him there. I will swear that it was not Jarman who struck Mr. Coppock on the hat. He did not " bonnet" him, he crowned him ; he hatted him. Re-examined—l have nothing to do with the management of my father's property. . Alfred E. Tuck—l saw Lowe, the two Smltbs,;Mr. Payne, and Mr. Coppock, in front of the Rainbow, on the day in ques tion. Mr. Coppock was against the door of the Rainbow. He went into the house. I saw him run across the close, and Abraham Smith chasing him. I ran round to meet them ; when I got to the corner. I saw the two Smiths, Payne, Mr. Coppock, and Mr. Southey. Abraham Smith knocked Mr. Coppock's hat flat on his head. Haslam, Smith, Paine, Southey, and Lowe, were present. Lowe pushed him about. Mr. Southey was on horseback. Mr. Coppock said to him, ‘, I appeal to you as a gentleman—isthis manly conduct towards me ?" Mr. Southey said, "I am very glad of it, for now I know who you are. I have seen you sneaking about several times, but never knew you." Payne called him a sneaking rascal, and said, "You have offered 1001. for anyone to tell, have you not?" Abraham Smith had hold of the skirt of his coat. Browne was on the common. Mr. Coppock snatched away from Smith, and ran into a house which was close by. Cross-examined by Mr. Tusszoltß—l was bred a jonrneyman tailor, but have given it up. lam now under instructions at the National School to be a schoolmaster. Mr. Coppock ran across Twiss's-close, and Abraham Smith followed him. I saw Mr. Coppock jump over the ditch. I think that Browne ran round. I saw him there. I saw Mr. Coppock this morning. I told him what I saw first, 'and then he read it over after wards. He read what had been taken down before. Mr. Cop pock and Mr. Cooper's clerk were there. Cross-examined by Mr. PLATT—I had given my evidence some time ago at Cambridge to Mr. Cooper's clerk. I know a person named Binder. I first saw Mr. Southey when they knocked Mr. Coppock's hat over his eyes. John Pulmar—l am a surveyor. I made the plan produced. (The witness then explained the relative situations, with plan of the Rainbow, the close, and the place where the assault had been committed. ) Cross-examined by Mr. PLATT—I have a vote for Cam bridge. I have voted on both sides. At the last election I voted for Mr. Foster. Ido not know Mr. Coppock. I have not yet been paid my expenses, or made any bargain about them. John Haines—l remember 21st April, I was turning a fence belonging to Jesus College close upon the common. I saw Mr. Coppock on the common. John Lowe, John Smith, and Abraham Smith, were about him. The men were kicking at Mr. Coppock, and hitting him, and knocking his bat over his face. He kept running about to get away from them. He tried to get into Mr. Naylor's house, but he was not admitted, and then he got into the next house, belonging to Mrs. Tweed. William Lowe said, Hit the —, and kill him. The con duct of the men was very violent. They kept kicking and knocking him about. Rebecca Tweed—l live in Brunswick-walk, Cambridge. On Friday, April 20, I was called down stairs, and found Payne and Smith, and several others, outside my house. Mr. Cop pock was in the passage. He asked to be let in. He was let in, and the others were kept out. Payne said, Goand give her 100/." Saw two gentlemen on horseback on the common. One was Mr. Southey. I sent for the police. Mr. Coppock sent for a fly and went away. By one of the Jury—l saw no marks of violence on Mr. Coppock's person. Cross-examined by Mr. WORDSWORTH—Payne is an old man but not infirm. I saw him, a little while ago, here, walking about. Susan King—l am servant to the last witness. I was stand ing at the door, on the 21st of April, at about three o'clock. I saw Mr. Coppock come round the wall by Brunswick-walk. There were several other persons, among them Payne and Smith. They were walking fast, and I saw Smith strike Mr. Coppock. I saw Mr. Payne strike him, and heard him call him a villain. Payne caught hold of Mr. Coppock's hand, and tried to pull him out, and when he found he could not do so, he pushed him forward, an said, "Go in, and give her 1001. to forswear herself." When lse came into the house Mr. Coppock was exhausted. His coat was torn, and his bat beat and bent about. I went and fetched the police. Cross-examined by Mr. WORDSWORTH—I did no t see any thing that took place beyond the wall. I saw M r • Southey . come round the wall. Mr. PLArr then proceeded to address the jury for the de fendant Southey, and contended that it was a suspicious feature in the case that Smithets had not been called as a witness. It was perfectly inconceivable that Mr. Coppock should be with out a bruise had he been assaulted in the manner described. There had been no surgeon examined, not even the torn coat had been produced, and the whole Prosecution was merely an attempt to put down Mr. Southey, a political adversary. Mr. Southey had never laid hand upon the plaintiff, and tould the jury gather from the evidence that he bad attempted to encourage the other persons to commit this assault. On the contrary, it appeared that he was ignorant even of the person of Mr. Coppock. The witness Haines, who had had the best opportunity of witnessing the transaction, said nothing of the appeal which the witness Tuck bad stated had been made by Mr. Coppock to Mr. Southey. Then was it likely that Mr Southey, who never raised a hand towards Mr. Coppock, would have rode before him to prevent his escape? Was it not much more likely that the witness was mistaken ? If Mr. Southey had made use of the expression attributed to him by Brown, there was an end of the cause, but it was only changing the pronoun we into they, and the expression would be a perfectly innocent one. How was it that the policeman had not been called to whom Mr. Southey had spoken? Was it because his recollection did not tally with that of Brown? How was it that. the damaged hat had not been produced? The testimony of one witness was inconsistent with that of another. There was no thing to show that Mr. Southey was a party to the assault, and he submitted that he was entitled to their verdict. Mr. ANDREWS addressed the jury for the defendant Hu lam, and expressed his regret at the absence of his leader the Solicitor-General. There was nothing to show that Mr. Haslam entertained any towards Air. Coppock, or that he had ever seen 'sip prior to the day in question. The ques tion which the jury had to decide was, did Mr. Haslam take part in the assault, or did he hire these persons to do it. There was nothing to show that such was the case, and Mr. Haslam was therefore entitled to their verdict. Mr. Woanswoarsi addressed the jury on behalf of the other five defendants, and contended that the assault was committed in a moment of excitement. It had been supposed that Mr. Coppock had come down to get up evidence to prove "bribery, and it was natural to suppose that there might be some per sons who would deem it right to interpose some obstacles b.- tween Mr. Coppock and his object. The assault had been committed under a moment of excitement, and Mr. Cop• pock had sustained no material injury. These five defendants were all poor men, why should they have been brought up to London? Why had they not at once been taken before a magistrate ? Why, because it was neces- Fary to join them with Mr. Southey and Mr. Haslam, who were rich men and able to pay, in order to endeavour to get verdict against them. With respect to the defendants Browne and John Smith, be contended that there" was no evidence e whatever against them. There was considerable discrefinii in the evidence as regarded Payne. Now, he submitted to the jury, that with regard to those four defendants, their var. diet must be in Air favour. He could not but admit that there was a case against Abraham Smith, but he submitted that a very small amount of damages would satisfy the justice of the case. The object was not to do Mr. Coppoek any grievous bodily harm, but to frighten him out of the town, and so prevent him from getting up evidence to prove bribery. Lord DENMAN, in summing up, told the jury that there could be no doubt but that Mr. Coppock bad been followed, annoyed, and assaulted, by the two Smiths, Lowe, Payne, and Browne, in a manner which no decent person could tolerate, while he was engaged in a lawful occupation ; and therefore there could be no doubt but that a verdict must go against them. With regard to Haslam, if it were proved that IN per son was near the ',lace where a violent assault was committed.. violent, not perhaps on account of the injury inflicted. but on account of the angry passions which it excited, and the terror which it was calculated to create—and that person afterwards expressed his approval of what had been done, it would be evi dence to go to a jury to show that he was cognizant of it. With regard to the case of Southey, a professional man, if-titer ' considered the case proved against him, then Mr. Southey's offenee. was of a very aggraved description. If such conduct could be • tolerated on the part of persons like Mr. Southey—if au* persons were to be permitted to excite the angry passiencee persons of low and vulgar habits, against those who reigittlite , engaged in a duty which might be distasteful to them, viike would be safe ? Would counsel who had offended such a pal son be safe ? Would witnesses be safe ? Would itidgetVW. safe? Would jurymen be safe? If they considered thecae's) proved against the defendant Southey, it was a very aggravated ease, which called for a considerabte amount of damages. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff against all the_dts, fendants--Damages 250/. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb. 14. (Special Jury Cases before Mr. Baron GURNEY.) BECKWITH, GILMAN, AND OTHERS V. DIMMER AND GILLAN. The action in this case was brought to recover from the defendants - the 'amount of costs incurred in proceedings car ried on to obtain a Bill from Parliament for the improve ment of the town of Norwich, and which had been lost, in consequence, as averred by the plaintiffs, who are solicitor& in Norwich, of the negligence of the defendants; who acted as their Parliamentary agents. The 13111 in question con tained compulsory clauses in reference to the purchase, when expedient, of property within the borough; and in respect to provisions of that kind, a Standing Order of the House of Lords, made in the year 18.38, required that strict and special notice should be served on parties whose interests might be affected by them. In this instance this order had not been complied with, and when the Bill had i beett submitted to the scrutiny of the Earl of Shaftesbury, as stand.. ing Chairman of the Committees of the House,, he had fts- - turned it to the defendants, with a marginal note expressive of a "wish to know what entitled the parties to compulsory terms." Notwithstanding the intimation conveyed in these words, the defendants did not take measures to comply with the order of the House. The consequence was, that the Bill was thrown out, and this action was brought to recover the amount of costs incurred in the vain endeavour to carry it. Mr. MESMER (with Mr. Martin and --Mr. Addison) ap peared for the defence, and drew from the evidence for the plaintiff inferences that there had not,•been negligence on the part of the defendants, and that Mr.' Beckwith hadjoined with them in their various proceedings, and shared their re-• sponsibility. It was also proved that there had been an action for their costs in this case brought, and successfully, in the Court of Common Pleas, where the question of gence had been vainly urged against them, even on a motion for a new trial. The jury, without a moment's delay, gave in their verdict for the defendants. FEBRUARE 15. (Before Lord ABINOER and a Special Jury.) IHISTLETHWATTE V. THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY CO*, PANT. This action, which it was understood was brought by the plaintiff against the Great Western Railway Company for breach of contract, in not building a bridge over the railway that passed through the plaintiff's land, at Westbourne, ovt being called on was referred to arbritration. BERRY v. coNNor. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a widow, cat.. rying on the business of a farrier at :Newmarket, against thy! defendant, a gentleman well known' on the race course, and the owner of several race-horses, to recover 211. lle. 6d. for shoeing the defendant's horses while they were stationed at Newmarket., in March 1842. The defence was, that the work was not . tione' for and on defendant's credit, but that the agreement wa entered into by one Price, the training groom of .the defendant, on his own credit, and not on the credit of the defendant, and also that there was an agreement at that time between Captain Meynell and defendant that defendant should pay all the expenses of the horses of Captain Meynell at , the Hippodrome, and that Captain Meynell should pay all expenses of the defendant's horses when at Newmarket. Captain Meynell proved this agree ment, and that if the work had been done he considered he was liable to pay the amount, but had not been called on. In the course of the cause it was stated that in the action brought by Lord George Bentinck against Mr. Connop to recover his stakes in the Grand Duke Michael Stakes, imme diately after the judgment of the Court of Queen's Bench on Saturday in favour of Mr. Connop, he attended at Tat tersall's, and gave notice that he would pay the amowilt of his stakes, notwithstanding such judgment. Mr. Martin and Mr. Worledge for the plaintiff; Mr. Erie, and Mr. Worsley for defendant. The jury having retired to consider their verdict, after being absent upwards of a quarter of an hour, returned into Court, but were requested not to give a verdict, the plaintiff wishing to withdraw a juror. The defendant immediately consented and a juror was then withdrawn. It was intimated by the foreman afterwards, they were prepared to return a verdict for the plaintiff for the ma amount claimed.
