ASHWOOD LODGE, a residence possessing every accommodation for a family of respectability, conve ni,ot offices, and substantial and well. arranged agricultu ral buildings, a good farm-house, several workmen's cot tages, and upwards of SIX HUNDRED ACRES of arable and pasture land of excellent quality, tithe-free, and in a high state of cultivation, together with the thriv ing plantations ; the whole lying very compact. The grounds are disposed with much taste, and the gardens and orchards are very productive. Attached to this valu able property is the Alatior of Ashwood, extending over upwards of TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED ACRES OF LAND, abounding with game, and the quit-rents and fines thereto belonging. Also the RIGHT of PRESENTATION to the Perpetual Curacy of the Parish of Pentney ; the pre sent incumbent is 67 years of age. This valuable pro perty is desirably situated in Pentney, one of the finest agricultural districts in the county of Norfolk, within ten miles of Lynn and Downham, and bounded by the river Nar, which is navigable to the port and market town of Lynn Regis, from which place the produce may be shipped to the London Market, at a moderate expense. It is let on lease for 21 years, to a highly respectable Tenant, at SEVEN HUNDRED POU:NDS . PER ANNUM.

MR. W. W. SINIPSON respectfully an nounces, that he will have the honour of sub mitting for SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart, on TU es- DAY, May 29, at Twelve, in One Lot, the TERRING TON ESTATE, an exceedingly valuable Freehold Pro perty, eligibly situate in the Parish of Terrington St. Clement's, in the C , unty of Norfolk, within a few miles of the excellent market towns of Lynn, Wisbeach, and Downlism, and about 90 miles frog Loudon. It compre hends several highly cultivated Farms, containing altogether TWO THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN ACRES of very superior Arable and rich old Pasture Land, divided into suitable enclosures, and lying within a ring fence.

There are also attached to this valuable estate four com mon rights on Terrington Common Marsh. The land comprised in this estate is naturally so exceedingly produc tive, that no reasonable doubt can be entert Lined of its always commanding tenants of equal respectability to those who at present occupy it. Mr. Simpson notices this im portant circumstance, as in adverse times it is probable that inferior lands would go out of cultivation, while, on the other band, property of this description would be aught after with increased avidity. The estate is therefore strongly recommended to capitalists as one offering an un usually favourable opportunity for eligible investment. The Estate may be viewed ; and particulars, with plans annexed, obtained of Mr. R. Bicknell, .Solicitor, SS, Bloomsbury-squ •re ; of Mr. 'George Johnson, Land Sur veyor, Leverington, near Wisbeach ; of U.

Jotph Day, aged 23, Thomas Barbary. aged 22, William Wentwich, aged 35, Alfred Toogood. aged 17, Benjamin Sparks, aged 20, John Deeming, aged 32, and William Berton, aged 50. were indicted for fel.- niously and tumultuously demolishing the house of Josiah Beck, in the parish of the Holy Trinity, in this city, on the 7th of November last, and destroying the machinery and a steam-engine therein. After a long investigation, which occupied the Court until near midnight, the Jury found Burbury, Sparks, and Tongood Guilty. and acquitted the rest of the prisoners. The Learned JUDGE, after ob,erving upon the nature of the offence of which the prisoners had been convicted, .passed sentence of death upon But bury and Sparks. Against Tangoed the sentence was only recorded, his life being spared on the ground of his youth. HEREFORD ASSIZES, MARCH '24. The commission opened ttt e ia.e on Tuesday evening. The Grand Jury were sworn on Wednesday at one o'clock. The calendar contained the names of 50 prisoners. There was not a single case of interest, except one for murder, and which was tried this morning. Mr. Justice TAUN TON presided in the Crown Court ; Mr. Justice LITTLE DALE on the Civil Side. There were only 14 causes, Bef which w. re undefended ; the others were of no interest. The mysterious circumstances under which the murder was committed excited the greatest interest. It was rather a singular coincidence that the murderers should be tried and convicted on the anniversary of the murder. At eight o'clock Mr. Justice TattexoN took his seat on the bench. The Court was greatly crowded. Joseph Pugh, aged 27. ;Valiant IVitliants, aged 24, and Juhn Mathews, aged 25, were put to the bar, and arraigned t; , r the murder of Walter Carwardine, on the 24th of March las, (1831). in the city of Hereford. William Carwardine—l live near Hereford. I was in Hereford on the 24th of March, 1831. I saw my bro ther, the deceased, at the Horse and Gr tom public-house. It was about half-past seven o'clock when I last saw him. lie ,appeared to have taken rather too much liquor. Ott the 12th of April I maw his body on the banks of the Wye. George Corner.—l am a shoemaker. I remember go ing home to my father's house about half-pest twelve o'clock o❑ the Thursday night of the Lent Asetz-s. Nut tar from Pugh's house I saw Matthews and Williams and a lusty man standing together. The clothes I saw at the inquest were like those worn by the lusty man. Mary Batchelor.—Recollects the Thursday night of the Lent Assizes. Siw a man at the dour of Pugh's house. Heard him cry out that he was rubbed. 1 beard blows struck. I then heard the man exclaim, " Have mercy on me; you have rubbed me, but don't murder me." The clothes which I say at the inquest were the same I saw on the man who knocked at Pugh's door, and who said be had been robbed. • Mary Anne Williams.—! am an unfortunate girl. I re member last Lent Assizes. The prisoner Pugh then lived in Quaker's lane. I was in his house on the Thursday of the Assize week. I went there about eleven o'clock at night. I there saw Mr. Carwardine, Sarah Coley, Mr. Webb, and Susan Reignar. I know it was Mr. Caawardine. I heard him called so. He was a stout man. He was sitting in an arm.chair. They were drinking gin. Mr. Webb, the butcher, and I went away together ; the rest remained. I was examined at the last Assizes. I have been ill since; in consequence of which I went to Mr. Howell's, the sword-bearer of this town. To him I made a statement. The following is the statement which she gave in her direct examination:— " City of Hereford, to wit.—The voluntary statement of Mary Anne Williams, made this '23cl of August, 1831, before me, one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace in and for the said city, who on her oath saith, that in consequenoe of her miserable and unhappy situation, and believing that she has not long to live, she makes this \ oluntary statement to ease her conscience, and in hopes of forgiveness hereafter ; that on Thursday night in the Assize week, in March last, between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock, I went into Joseph Pugh's house, in Quaker's lane' a nd there saw Susan Connop, Sarah Coley, Susan Reignant, Mr. Webb, the butcher, and Walter Carwarame. After drinking with them, I left the house with Mr. Webb, I walked as far as the King's-head Inn, in Broad-street. I returned by the way of Eign-street, to the end of Quaker's-lane, by Eign-gate turn pike. I went along the street as far as the gate of Mr. Thomas, the coachmaker's meadow. I there saw Joseph Pugh, William W.lliams, a man of the name of Matthews, and Sarah Coley. I heard Mr. Carwardine's voice very plain : he said, " For God's sake don't murder me." I heard Coley say, " I have got his blunt, and if you will steep secret I'll treat." Williams said, "We will soon put him out of the way." I then heard a dreadful blow, and Mr- Carwardine fell on the ground on his back. I distinctly heard two long deep groans, as if he was dying. I did not hear him speak after. At that moment Williams saw me ; he ran to me, and forced me into the turnpike road to the Red Lion Inn, turned up't'own-ditch-lane, into the Cross-lane, but no one was there. I went into Quaker's-lane, by the end of the barn, and listened. I heard Pugh, Williams, Matthews, and Coley, about Mr. Thomas's house, the carpenter, three parts down the lane towards the tan-yard. I distinctly heard Pugh curse his eyes and limbs, and say, Go on.' Coley said, Don't talk so loud ; don't be in a hurry.' I was very much frightened, and I got into the house and went to bed. (Signed) " MARY ANN WILLIAMS. " Sworn in the presence of the prisoners, and before the Mayor, John Farmer, Esq. Cross-examined—l am 20 years of age. I live id Here ford. I was born in it. It is four or five years since I became an unfortunate girl. I was a witness on the trial of Connop. The reason I did not then tell what I now state, is because I was afraid, and lam still so. The reason I made the disclosure was, because I was very ill. I had beer. beaten by the prisoner Pugh and Williams's brother. It was not until after I had been beaten I made the statement to Mr. Howells. It was neither from a love of justice or revenge I iiid so. It was because I thought I was dying, and unfit to die, such was my mise- rable situation. Susan Connop corroborated Anne Williams's testimony. Elizabeth Powell— I recollect the last Lent Assizes. I saw a farmer-looking man striving to get into Pugh's house. He wore top-hoots. I heard Pugh say, " your eyes, if you don't be Off send you." There was a light in Pugh's house. I heard his back door open. 1 sew Pugh come round to the man. I also saw John Matthews and William Williams come round the corner or the barn in the lane; it was about five minutes after Pugh joined the man. I then saw Pugh push him and bit against the corner of the barn ; the other prisoners did the same. After this I approached half-way towards the prisoners. I stopped and listened. I heard the farmer-looking man say. " You have robbed me, for gra cious sake don't murder me." I then saw the farmer-looking man hit down. It was the prisoner Williams who hit him. lie fell upon his side. When he fell he fetched t‘s o heavy groans After I heard the groans I heard no more noise. The town constables proved meeting the prisoners Wil- liams and Mathews several times on the night of the mur der together. A boatman proved finding the body of the deceased in the river Wye, two miles from Hereford. The evidence of the medical witnesses who had exa mined the body, stated it as their opinion that they could not say positively whether the wounds on the head were such as would have caused death, but were of opinion that the deceased had been thrown into the water atter he had been dead, or in a sense of great insensibility. Mr. Justice TAUNTON summed up, and the Jury, after fifteen minutes' consultation, found the prisoners Guilty. The Learned Juno pronounced the awful sentence of the law, and ordered them to be hanged on Monday, and their bodies to be given for d,ssection. The prisoners heard their sentence with firmness, which appeared to be the result of surprise. The prisoner Pugh is an ill-looking fellow, and of very bad character. On being placed at the bar, be behaved with the most disgusting levity, laughed while surveying the Jury, and such was his conduct, that his own Counsel had to rebuke him for it. However, as the trial was draw ing to a close, his impudence and confidence were suc ceeded by terror and dismay, and his countenance exhi bited the most intense mental agony. The prisoner Wil liams is a fine-looking young man, but of desperate cha racter. lie has had one brother hanged, another brother and sister transported, and a third brother at present in gaol for deserting from the Guards. His demeanour dur ing the trial was firm, until Mary Anne Williams was called. His countenance then exhibited the greatest alarm. The blood rushed and receded to and from his cheeks ; his lips trembled the heaving of his cheat and his short re- IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS, MARCH 27. Mr. Alderman WOOD presented a petition from two persons resident in Gracechurch-street, praying that their premises might be included in the London Bridge Ap proaches Bill. The Hon. Alderman a tid the petitioners had consented to part with their premises. He also pre sented a petition from the Directors of the St. Katherine's Dock Company, praying for leave to bring in a Bill. The latter was referred to the Committee. Mr. Alderman WOOD went into a Committee upon Smith's Divorce Bill, Lord Morpeth in the Chair. Mr. Pottocx appeared at the bar as Counsel for the Petitioner, and examined witnesses in support of the Bill, alter which the House resumed and Lord Morpeth brought up the report. On the motion of Lord STANLEY, the Manchester provem , nt was reiti a thisd time and passed. Mr HUNT presented a petition from the four men (Broadhurst, Curran, Ashmore, and Gilchrist), confined in Lancaster Castle, under sentence of a year's init.risonm.•nt, for being present at an illeg 41 meeting at Manchester, on a Sunday. They complained that they were ill-treated in gaol, and that they were refused even the gaol allowance, which was a kind of thin gruel called skillet, and potatoes. He begged to call the attention of the House more eve cially to this petition, because it might, perhap., be very shortly the turn of a different description of reformers, these men being radical reformers, to be similarly situated. Hay. ing been condemned to a year's imprisonment, they were supplied at first with the gaol allowance, but in conse quence of their being unable to do the work assigned to them, the gaoler told them that they must provide them selves with food and firing. This was understood to be by the orders of the visiting Justice•. The only wink those poor men could periorm was milk-weaving, and therefore it was impossible fur them to do such work as the gaoler put them to. The) also complain that a Bill was now before the House, which in the event of their dying in gaol would give the gaoler the power of disposing of their bodies to the surgeons. They were very poor men ; their families were obliged to be supported by the parish, and they were apprehensive that they would die in prison. They also complained that all their letters were broken I:pen by the gaoler; and of that he (Mr. Hunt) had also to complain that the gaoler had committed a breach of privilege; he had occasion to write to those men, and his letters had been opened before the men got them. He apprehended that the law did not give the gaoler permis sion to break open letters addressed to persons confined for misdemranonre, whatever it might do so far as re garded felons—the more e.pecially when the letters came from a Member of the Commons House of Parliament. When he was in prison in Ilebester gaol for a sim►lar offence, the question was brought before the House, and the Secretary of State ordered the gaoler not to break open any of his letters. He knew of no law that authorizeddhe gaoler to break open the letters of prisoners. He had communicated his intention of presenting this pe tition to the Under-S-eretary of State, and he should be happy to hear what answer could be given to the petition. The petitioners stated, that if the Anatomy Bill passed, they expected their bodies would be given over for dissection as they were totally without the means of keeping them selves alive, and expected they should not be able to survive their confinement unless something was done fur them by Parliament. Mr. GREEN thought the main point touched upon by the petitioners relative to the Anatomy Bill, had answered itself. With respect to the conduct of the gaoler he (Mr. Green) must take all blame from his shoulders, as he had acted under his (Mr. Green's) orders, and those of the other visiting Magistrates. With re spect to the opening of letters, he saw no reason why a letter under cover of a frank of an Hon. Member should not be subject to the same inspection as was gene rally adopted in prison. In what had been done, no vio lation of the law had taken place, the Act of the 4th of Geo. IV. Chap. 60, fully authorising all that had peen done Lord W. LENNOX said if all the statements contained in the petition were as accurate as the one he was about to allude to, the petition slid not deserve the attention of the House. The Honourable Member alluded to that part where the petitioners stated that in the event of their deaths their bodies would be given up for dissection. He (Lord William Lennox) opposed the Anatomy Bill as much as the Hon. Member for Preston did, but be must declare, bad as it was, there was a clause which enabled an individual, by expressing his wishes, to save himself from the hands of the dissector. Mr. WARBURTON thought that the prisoners had been harshly dealt with and concurred entirely with the prayer of the petition. The great caarge brought against the prisoners was, that they had attended a political meeting on a Sunday ; he ad mitted that that was improper, but he could not see any ground for treating them as they had been dealt with. He could not for his lite conceive under what law the pe titioners had been imprisoned. Mr. LAMB was sorry that he had not been present when the petition was presented. He could not agree with many of the statements i❑ the petition, and with re gard to the opening of letters, be did not know whether the Hon. Member for Preston expected that more courtesy would be shown to the franks of Honourable Members than the letters of any other individual; if he did he must beg to differ with him completely. He was sure that the Hon. Members about him would he very sorry to be an swerable for everything that went under cover of their franks.—(Laughter.) With respect to what had been stated by the lion. Member for Bridport be (Mr. Lamb) certainly did not expect to hear him advocate a petition which stated so much against the Bill which he had in troduced into that House. The Hon. Member here seated that the offence of these men was the attending a political meeting on a Sunday ; that was not so ; the offence was attending an unlawful reefing. He had no hesitation in saying there was no law in existence which made it a substantive offence to hold meetings on Sundays ; but at least it was treating that day very irre verently, and placed in rather a suspicious light the pro ceedings which took place. Mr. HUME said that the Right Hon. Gentleman who had just addressed the House, had not stated in what the unlawfulness of the me ting consisted. The circumstan ces, as he understood them, under which the meeting was called, were these :—That certain individuals were under sentence of death at Bristol, for the part they had taken in the late riots, and these parties at Manchester being desirous of saving their lives called a meeting for the purpose of addressing his Majesty in their behalf. Now he was anxious to know where was the unlawful ness of such a meeting, called by public notice, particu larly as the address was agreed to, and forwarded in due form through the Secretary of State to his Majesty ? Where were the acts of violence— where the impropriety ?—there might be indiscreet speeches, but in what assembly in the world were they nut to be met with? Even in that House—(Hear and laughter)—had they not now and then listened to indiscreet speeches, and should the House not make an allowance for those who are not under such controul? There ought then to be some strong and special grounds in order to make it an unlawful meeting.—(Hear, hear.) It was, Indeed, highly indecorous to meet on the Sunday, for the purpose they had in view, but there was a difference between disapproving of that, and condemning the parties for such a misdemeanor to twelve months' im prisonment. Mr. WEYLAND considered that the Judge and the Jury had alone to determine the question of the legality or illegality of the meeting, and it was not necessary now to interfere with their solemn decision. Lord STANLEY said, if he had not read the petition, he should have been disposed to think, from the speech of the Hon. Member for Preston, that the purport of the petition was very different from what be found it to be. The petitioners did not complain of the conduct of the gaoler. Mr. HUNT—They do. Lord STANLEY—The question was not whether the directions of the Magistrates were complied with, the peti tioners only called upon the House not to pats the Anatomy Wi at was same for the goose was sauce for the gmder, and if this Reform Bill were not passe'•l, wou'd Hon. Members on the Treasury Bench succumb ? Would they give up Reform ? If they would, he hhould not, and they might be imprisoned for political off, nces. lie himself had heard in that House words much more violent, perhaps more vulgar than those for which three - . men had . been found guilty of a misdemeanor. During the time of the Susp,n.ion Art, and during the worst flays of Lord Sid mouth's Aduoiniitration, no case parallel to the present had occurred. As to the gaol , r, whom so high a char.icter had teen given by the N,,tple Lord, he wig a vul g ar, insolent. unfeeling wretch. He wall al a less to know how the Noble Lord coul.l bestow on him such a character. Ho was convinced it 14 as because he did not know him. If like him (Mr. Hunt) Hon. Meinbas had been imprisoned for political offence., their ilainions would have been widely different. Lord STANLEY explained. Mr. 110111 N ! . 4)N said there appeared to be a iviestiott o' every considerable importaiee into sc. , in trig cane, Vier persons condemned for iodic:cal offe ,cts at.d rot to impri4onment and hard 1 iiiour, could he etini,t lied to labour by the regulation of a county at , a ! istta , e. lie v,-ished to know what Acts of Parliament regulated this. Sir F. BURDETT said, the greatest jealousy should he exercised over the charactei and conduct of jailors whoever the slightest foundation tor suspicion of unworthy conduct existed, and most scrutingly it ought to be ing , itred into. The petitioners hail been imprisoned for a politokal offence, and without entering into the merits of the ease, to, would may that the prisoners were under the strict protection of the law, and nothing should he done, such as the withdrawal ott he gaol allowance, but what the sentence or the law fully sanctioned. As to the opening of karts, he considered it a great grievance, which nothing but a very siring special justification could exempt from being considered cruel and unconstitutional in the highest degree. Tile slihtest of all cffences were political ones, committed under cif, cumstances of public excitement, and they ought to it looked on comp , ssitonately, in evrty country,w here here was the slightest fr, edoin of opinion.—P. , titio,n to be tainted. Mr. EWART rose, according to his notice, to move for leave to bring in a Bill to abolish the punishment of death for liorse•stealing, sheep•stealing, ai.d stealing in a dwelling-house, no person therein being put in bodily fear. In gi.ing notice of this motion the Learned Member had done it as an individual Member of Parliament, and on his own personal responsibility. The general feeling with which lie ventured to introduce this suk , ,ect was for the pur pose of bringing forward a m•asure to introduce a inure certain punishment for certain offences. An undue punish ment must be an uncertain punishment, and whenever a punishment was irreparable, the evil consequences might be of the most distressing kind. Many of the crimes which were visited by capital punishment in this country were not, visited with the s ane degree of punishment in Fiance or on the con inent. Thesentence of death was pas ed on prig .ners for crimes which were never thought of being punished by death in any country except this. It might br truly said, that this punishment did not fall on all sentenced to cuff r it, and that it was only in a solitary instance, where the severity of the punishment was carried into effect, and it was said that this had a salutary effect. He doubted the accuracy of the expression. If 99 persons were allowed to escape and one pei son was executed tor the same offence, he could not but doubt the jus. tics of that law.—(Hear.) He knew, and indeed, many of his own friends had been placed in the situation, that many persons had been detetred from prosecuting, simply from the circumstance of its being possible that it they had prosecuted, and the individual had been found guilty, by possibility he might have been executed for the offence. When the Committee of Enquiry was sitting on tkis sub• ject, one witness stated before the Committee that his land had been laid entirely waste, and yet he had nut prosecuted and would net prosecute, from a tear that it the parties had been found guilty, they would have been exe cuted. In the Bill which he purposed to bring before the House, he meant to propose for the capital punishment of the offences to which he allu►lyd, the secondary punishment in the Act introduced by the Right Honourable Baronet opposite—namely, transportation from seven to fourteen, or twenty-one years, or for life, or to a given number of years hard labour ; this, however, to be ►fecided upon Inure patticlarly from the sugges tions of Honourable Members when the proper time came. The Honourable Member then entered into a contrast of the number of sentences passed in given years in France and in England, and of the degree of cer tainty with which in the respective countries those sen tences were to be expected to be carried into effect. In England, for instance, in the year 1830, about 1,400 indi viduals had been sentenced to death, 46 only of whom had been executed; in France 92 had been sentenced to death, of whom about one-half had suffered. In France in 1825, 130 had been sentenced to death-110 executed. In England since then 1,000 had been sentenced to death in the same year, of whom only about 50 bad been executed. From these and other instances the Hon. Gentleman considered the criminal law to be in an exceed ing uncertain state in this country—considered it in a state urgently calling for a revision and improvement, and concluded by expressing his hope that his motion would be entertained. Mr. STRICKLAND said, the House was much in debted to the Hun. and Learned Member for the ability with which he had brought this 'object forward. He (Mr. S.) had bad frequent opportunities of rtflecting upon the subject, and he coincided with the French people that the English Criminal Code was of a most sanguinary character. What code could be worse than that by which 1,400 persons were capitally convicted, and of that number but six convictions were carried into eff ct? He had no doubt that crime was encouraged by such a system. The cri minal code had undergone very recent altetattons, but he was sorry to say that he could not call many of them improvements. In many of the minor offences, the punish ment of whipping had been carried to a great, and even to a brutal extremity—rather, as it would seem, to the effect of brutalizing, than of correcting offenders. The whole state of the criminal law, although some tech nicalities and barbarisms had been struck out, was still nut what it ought to be. Speeches vett., perm'tted to be made against a prisoner, while none were allowed to he made for him ; a whole host of witnessea were brought forward against him at the public exjeose, but none were brought forward for him at the public expense, so that in many cases, particularly those of a circumstan tial nature, a man from his extreme poverty would be un able to prove his innocence. Mr. LAMB said that he would most readily assent to the introduction of the Bill. He agreed that the question was deserving the attention of the House, and he awatded his tribute of praise to the Hon. and Learned Member for bringing it forward. One Hon. Member bad, however, spoken of the criminal code as of a sanguinary character. That Hon. Member, did not seem sufficiently to allow that the attention of former Ministers had been called to this subject, and that they had endeavoured to make the law as little sanguinary as possible. Torte were not at present any great number of offences made capital, hut be agre. d that those selected for the proposed Bill were tffences for the punishment of which a great difference of opinion ex tsted. He begged it to be understood that while be agreed to the Billl being brought in, he would not pledge himself to consent to take away capital punishment orn all the offences enumerated in the motion.— ( Hear.) As to horse-stealing, be was not prep tred to 44y that the punishment of death should be taken away altogether.—Nor was it as to sheep-stealing, be cause they were property which were so Lttle protected. As to stealing in a dwelling house, where no per son was put in bodily fear, and where the property stolen bras to the value of 5/. it: should be observed that it was the only offence in the statute book to which a q ualification of value was attached, there were some cases, such as servants robbing masters, which were of great enormity, and the House should be cautious before they classed those offences with common larcenies. He hoped that the House would agree to the Bill being brought in, and that there might be an ample opportunity of discussing it. Sir ROBERT PEEL was of opinion that the House ought to e ntertain this question with mush wore compre hensieC views than those talus - - by either the mover or t‘\
