VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER AGAINST THE CLERGYMAN, AND SERIOUS RESULT. The adjourned inquest upon the body of the unfortu nate victim in the recent fatal mistake at Walton, near Brampton, was resumed on Tuesday morning, before Mr. Carrick, the coroner, and the same jury, at the vil lage inn. Tho excitement created by this sad event is intense; indeed, no event has happened of late years in the east of Cumberland which has created equal sensa tion, the position of the parties more immediately cote ceracel in it, and the circumstances und er w hi c h it oc curred. both combining to invest the affair with the deepest and most startling interest. As some mis-statements connected with the affair have appeared, it may be as well briefly to state the particu lars, ascertained by the most diligent inquiry and hives tigation. The deceased, who was 38 years of age, and has left a widow and two children, was more generally known by the name of his paternal estate, " Sur bietrees," than by his name of Armstrong, and was the lineal de scendant and representative of the " Sorbietrees" spoken of by Sir Walter Scott in " Guy Mannering." The adjourned inquest was resumed on Tuesday morning at ten o'clock. By this time the news of the melancholy event had epread far and wide, and a great number of persons thronged the village in the hope of gaining access to the scene of so much melancholy in terest; the room was consequently crowded to an incon venient degree —even to the very ceiling. There was breathless silence whilst the several witnesses gave their testimony. After some lengthened evidence, The CORONER then addressed the jury. He said— You can have no doubt that the poor man died from a pistol-shot wound in his side, the ball passing through the trunk of the body, and you can have no doubt also that Mr. Smith was the person who fired the shot. Having then disposed of that question you havo thioim portent one to consider—under what circumstances did he fire that shot; whether it was under circumstances which either justify or excuse the act? If so, then Mr. Smith is not criminally responsible, and he stands ac quitted before you and his country of any legal blame. But if he was not so justified or excusable in the eye of the law, then Mr. Smith has been guilty of one of two crimes, either that of manslaughter or murder. Mr. Smith's own statement affords the only direct and positive evidence of this part of the case. There is other evidence bearing upon it, and it is for you to consider and com pare the different statements together, and to say how far they agree and are consistent with themselves and with each other. Having heard this evidence read over, I um sure you will exercise that judgment which will enable you to reconcile them, or to see how far they were entitled to your full credence, and which appear consistent or otherwise. Having ventured to submit this question, I may go on further to state to you what I believe to be the law applicable to this particular case. First, then, I must state that under certain circumstances a man is justified in killing another, in such as the fol lowing circumstances:—lf one attempt to rob or murder another on the highway or in a house; or to attempt to break into a dwelling-house by night; or to commit any other forcible or atrocious crime, and the party making the attack be killed, then the slayer is justified in taking his life; but with this qualification, that the con duct of the party killed clearly manifested the intention to commit a felony of a forcible and violent character, and not a mere trespass, or even a felony unaccompanied by force. If death was occasioned under these latter circumstances it would not be justifiable, but man slaughter or murder. Therefore, gentlemen, it is for you to apply this test to the evidence before you; it is for you to say whether the conduct of the deceased was of such a character as to bring Mr. Smith's case within this rule. You have heard the evidence with respect to the character and circumqancL s of the deceased. That tends to prove that he was not there with any felonious intention—every circumstance disproves such an assump tion; he might be a trespasser, but not a felon. But then comes the question whether the conduct of Arm strong that night was such as clearly to manifest an intention on his part to commit some violence by break ing into the house, or doing some other forcible or felonious act. He might not be intending to do it; but his conduct might have been such as to lead a person exercising a mind of ordinary capacity and firmness to misconstrue his intentions, and for a moment believe that he was really intending to break into the house. In such a case it would be a stretching of the law to make a man criminally responsible for that which the circumstances, as they appeared at the moment, justi fied; although it afterwards turned out that his inten tions had been misconstrued. It is not, therefore, gen tlemen, whether the man was really intending to com mit a felony, but whether the conduct of the deceased, so far as the evidence shows, was of such a nature as to manifestly lead a man of ordinary mind to put such a construction upon it. Now, gentlemen, was the conduct of Armstrong of such a character? The auestion, therefore, which I would put would be in this form—Was the conduct of the deceased, so far as the evidence shows, such as to excite in the mind of a reasonable man, exercising ordinary judgment and thought, a well-founded suspicion that de ceased was attempting to commit a forcible and inten tional felony ? and, believing so, did he exercise that precaution which a prudent man would do before he re sorted to the desperate step of firing at him? If Mr. Smith were convinced, if he hail a right to be convinced, and he did take precautions under that apprehension, then he was justified or excusable in what he did. Some allowance might be made for a man whose fears are suddenly aroused at a late hour of night, alone, as it were, in a house far from any other, where the alarm would appear far beyond the reality. Yet, gentlemen, I cannot subscribe to the doctrine—a very dangerous doctrine, indeed—that a man should seek to be excused, much less justified, for the taking of another's life, not because there were any real or well-founded reasons for believing an attack was to be made upon him, but merely acting as he would do, and as appears by Mr. Smith's own statement he did, under a nervously timid state of mind, lost all self-possession, baying become void of all ordinary prudence, judgment, and discretion (I think his words were). Mr. Smith's statement is silent as to whether he saw deceased or not. He, how ever, leaves it to be inferred that he did not see him. Mr. Smith also says that he fired at random. It is for you to say whether you are satisfied or otherwise, that Mr. Smith saw the man. If he did, in your opinion, see the man at the time he fired, the remarks I have just made perfectly apply to that part of the case; but if you think Mr. Smith fired at random without seeing the man at the time, then this question will arise—fled Mr. Smith, when he fired, reasonable ground for supposing teat some one or more persons were in the immediate vicinity, and within the range of the pistol discharged? If he had reason to believe so, and fired in that direction, and death ensued, he would (subject to the remarlts I have already made) be criminally responsible for the Consequences. Therefore, whether he fired seeing the party, or he fired having reason to believe—and it cer tainly is in his evidence that he had heard a person at the window immediately before that—and that party bad withdrawn but only from the immediate vicinity; if; therefore, he did believe that same person was in the immediate neighbourhood, and he fired in such a direr , Hon as was likely or probable to strike the party, he d oes not appear to me to be less culpa b le than if he had fired melrmelyaytoalsaolaroinffe,r he ehis wouldrem anrokt, have h a direction as to strike h i m, il d ef i v r he e ol c l t at he dad ht intendedi h s e p p i ti e t r o t l y i . n SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—It has been rumoured for seine time that there existed an intention of cutting a public ride in Kensington -gardens. We have refrained from noticing the scheme because we did not wish to call down need less unpopularity on the heads of its originators. It seems, however, that the thing is to be, unless some stern and urgent protest be made against the desecration of the only spot in London which gives promise of quiet and seclusion. What occasion is there for such an act of wanton aggression? The gardens, as they stand, are for the convenience of persons who cannot mount on horseback, and seek green fields and quiet at a distance from the bustle of the town. The proposed change is for the benefit of equestrians alone—of persons who within 15 or 20 minutes from mounting might shake off tho town, and find quiet cantering-ground on any side of London they please. The monopoly of Hyde-park for one year at least should be a sufficient concession to tho managers of the Great Exhibition. But, it is answered, there is a third interest concerned. What is to become of the equestrians who, daring the course of the London season, were in the habit of taking their exer cise and meeting their friends in Rotten-row? Now,we are fully prepared to admit that, even if their accustomed ride had not already been marked out for the exclusive use of carriages, &c., it is impossible to make, use cf Rotten-row as a public ride while the Exhibition lasts. We acknowledge also, to its fullest extent, the propriety of providing a suitable riding-ground for the use of those persons who had been in the habit of taking their pro pransile canter in Rotten-row. There is no reason that middle-aged gentlemen with a tendency to run to fat should be exposed to a lengthened series of dyspeptic phenomena because of the Great Exhibition. Even setting their piteous case aside, we are of those who think that London has few sights which can be compared in beauty with the public ride in Hyde-park towards the close of a summer's day when the season is at its height. There is no conti nental capital which can present a spectacle half so gra tifying to the eye or the pride of an Englishman. The Champs Elysbes or the Bois de Boulogne at Paris, the Cascine of Florence, yield but pale imitations of the public ride in Hyde-park when the throng of riders is at its fullest. Were not the feelings of a section of the public who have a right to consideration concerned in this matter, we should wish to see the mere show preserved as the last expres s i on of the wealth and beauty o f the Bri tish empire. Having said thus much it will be clear that we do not approach the subject in any spirit of vulgar fanaticism. We would wish to see the rights and pleasures of all parties preserved intact ' Let the Great Exhibition be p rov id e d with a fitting car riage approach, and let the riders in the Park be also accommodated with a suitable can tering-ground. Bat both these results may be ob tained without desecrating the single sp o t in London round which the charm of seclusion still lingers, and w ith o ut inflicting great and unnecessary annoyance on a neighbourhood which has already suffered so severely from the proximity of the Exhibition. The question remains in this form :—Where are the riders to go who have been temporarily dispossessed of Rotten -row? Where is a public ride to he laid out for their use? The answer is perfectly clear. Let such a ride be made within, not without, the limits of Hyde-park itself. Whatever objections apply to cutting-tap the turf in Hyde-park, apply with at least equal foree to any section of Kens ington-gardens which might be chosen for the purpose. But there is a propriety in the one instance which there i 5 no t in the other. Hyde-park is already given up to the use of carriages and equestrians. The privacy of Kensington -gardens has never, that we recollect, been profaned b by a h orse ' s hoo f t i me ou t of mind, once, and that once the act caused so much dissatisfaction that the attempt was never renewed. I t is of litterally the only spot within the precinctsthis vast Bab e l of brick and mortar where seclusion and quiet can be obtained. The adjacent houses are i w ho settled themselves many cases inhabited by families emsel v e iu that nei g hb our h oo d f or no o ther reason th an becauses the beautiful gardens were there, with their chestnuts and their firs, to cheat them into the idea of co unt , even if it were their hard fate to be bopulnadeetohataosyvbneetaffoethe greater portion of the veer.

If this b e objected to—although ono c annot conceive a n y rational ground of objection—there 13 also a large open area of green sward which skirts the northern drive of the park, eirectly under the Baysvvater-road. One or other would answer, although, for reasons which we omit for the moment, the first proposition would seem to offer most convenience to the riders. They would not sensibly be disturbed from their old ground. They would enter the park by the old gate, simply bearing away a little to the risk, in place of entering Rorten.row to the left. It is •13t moment as possible, for Lord Seymour and his -friebdi to elect for Hyde-park as for Kensington-gar &lsle We bid them fairly be warned of the storm cf unpeplarity which will be the consequence of their act, tyy persist in the latter resolution. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, April 24. LAWRENCE V. AN ORDER OF MR. TYRWHITT. This was an appeal against an order in bastardy. The case was heard on the " bail day" of the last session, but the Court reserved its judgment in order to consider whether the fact of th e appe ll ant h av i ng i n an act i on brought against him by the father of the mother of the child for seduction consente d to a ver di ct b e i ng g i ven against him, could l ega ll y b e rece i ve d as ev id ence cor roborative of the mother's assertion that he was the father of the child. The facts were reported at the time. The Learned JUDGE, in now pronouncing the judg ment of the Court, said that he had not been able, when the case had formerly been before the Court, to see ex actly how a verdict pronounced in an action which had been brought against the appellant by a third party could be received as evidence of proof that he was the father of the child in respect of whom the order appealed against had been made, and the view which be had upon that occasion entertained he had subsequently found was exactly that held by Mr. Baron Parke, with whom he had had a consultation upon the matter. The order, therefore, would be quashed, and with reference to the case itself, he must say that he never knew one of the kind in which there could be less sympathy for the mother of the child, who had told an incredible story about the appellant having intruded into her bedroom, which adjoined that in which his own wife was sleeping, and without having previously made any advances, or been guilty of any impropri e ty towards her, insisted upon getting into bed to her, and that she suffered him to have intercourse with her with out making any noise or resistance, because she was afraid of disturbing the wife. Her father brou g ht an action for seduction against him and got 1501. damages by consent, and within a few days afterwards a bastardy order was applied for. The order would be quashed and the appeal granted. Mr. BALLANTINE then made an application for costs. The Learned JUDGE awarded 10/. by way of costs. PLYMOUTII, Aram 23.—Her Majesty's steam-frigate Penelope, Captain Lyster, with her tender, the screw gun vessel Teaser, from Portsmouth, reached the Start Point on Sunday evening, when, the weather being very thick, they separated; the tender arrived in the Sound at half-past seven, and the frigate at half-past nine on Monday morning. Both went up harbour same day to coal, and last evening they sailed for the coast of Africa to relieve the Centaur, Commodore Fanshawe. Her Majesty's frigate Indefatigable, Captain Smart, sailed on the 4th inst., from Lisbon, to relieve the Cale donia ,ordered home from the Mediterranean. The steam-vessel Caradoc is ordered from Woolwich this port, when her crew are to be paid wages prior sailing for the Mediterranean. Mr. A.

Lord Adelphus Fitzelarence, G.C.H., commander of the Royal Victoria and Albert steam-yacht, visited Wool wich Dockyard to-day, accompanied by Captain Spar shott, for the purpose of inspecting the progress made with the 20-gun frigate preparing for being rigged, and at present in the mast-house at this port. This beautiful little craft is 38 feet long, and of 26 tons burden, and will be fitted and rigged even to the minutest details as one of the frigates in her Majesty's service. The bottom of the vessel is sheathed with copper, and her keel is of iron, weighing 23 cwt. She will be navigated by twenty boys.

A man, who gave his name George Martin, but who is well known to the police by the aliases of Rain and Smith, was placed at the bar before Mr. Broughton, charged with having, as a convict, made his escape be fore the expiration of his sentence of transportation. It appeared from the evidence that on the previous night Smith, an officer of the detective police, went to the Swan public-house, in Great Portland-street, and there saw the prisoner, whom he and another officer took into custody and conveyed to the station-house in St. Giles's. When there the nature of the charge was explained to him, and he then denied that he was the man " wanted." It further appeared that the prisoner was tried at the Central Criminal Court on the 9± of April, 1849, and that he was convicted and sentenced to ten years' transportation for housebreaking. He was removed to Woolwich, where he was placed on board the Warrior hulk. and, according to the statement of Mr. Masterman, the superintendent thereof, he (pri soner) and two more convicts made their escape in a small bout. Prisoner was at that time ironed, and it had been ascertained that he left Woolwich by the Eastern Counties Railway. Another of the party has since been taken, but the third was still at large. The prisoner, who did not attempt to deny that he had made his escape from ,the Warrior, was remanded, in order that the officers might communicate at the Home-office as to whether he (prisoner) should be Tent hack to the Warrior hulk or be committed for trial for the offence. _ _ The notorious Charles Barnett, of No. 9, Robin Hood-court, Shoe-lane, the " King of the Jigger men," has at length fallen into the hands of the officers of justice. His career has been a most re markable one, as having been for years past en gaged in illicit distillation, and connected with nearly all the private distilleries in and around London, together with his hair-breadth 'stapes from detection, have earned for him amongst his com panions the title of "King of the Jiggermen." A man was arrested by the supervisor of Buckingham at the latter end of last year carrying illicit spirits, and from some papers found in his possession a clue was obtained that the same had been supplied by Barnett, and consequently Mr. Scott, the superintendent of the o detective officers, was sent by the Commissioners succeeded Inland at He haying Revenue to make inquiries, and be Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, and other parts of Buc c k e9ed in tracing the different packages of spirit to companied by Mr. ghes secreted England. uuss,p,iciportoicetbedatedspt.hiriitthserN:•aecre knew the object of their visit, Upon seeing them enter Chaster andseveraltok up police-officers. lltacreg the house Mrs. Barnett, who filled with spirits, and threwitt4 waser a on to the fire, and it was with difficulty the house' de struction frotn the immense bodyp o reserved from d : In v e c s e s r e s l . .f . flame produced therefrom.
