i ~~ ESSEX iISSIZES. CItEL4SrOIID - ~FRIDAT; JULY LI 5, CIVIL SI,DE IYUNLOV. t , - Tnrs was the only cause ofimportance tried air, ing -the day. Mr. GAiinow, in his address to the Jury, told, them it wits one which called for their serious atien inamuch as it involved a question upon the security of their civil rights. The Plaintiff ,teas man rather in an humble situation of'life, beihg_the keeper ufthe Canteen at Colchester Barracks ; the Defendant, - he was ready th admit;Must be a Gentle.• . man of respectability, inasmuch as he I.?ore the rank of General in the Army.; and at the time of the aCI now in question had the command of the Garrison, at Colchester; but it seemed he had no very corred ideas of the extent of his military command, for he chose to conceive that all within his garrison, whe-, ther, soldiers or not, were subjea.to his power. - ' In this, however, the Jury would,teach him that lie was mistaken; and ifwas important ,fot the preservation of their civil rightS, that -they should give the Gene ral a severe lesson for • the cundUdt he. was abOut to state to khem.--rlt happened on the.tith of May last, the General then being on parade, be sent for the Plaintiff to 'come to'. -him diredly ; the Plaintiff being then in a dress not fit, as he thought, to ap pear 'before the ,Generali sent his .'respects, : and added, that he would come direaly, and imme diately set aboht changing his clothes : his answer,* however, being reported to the General, he sent the . orderly man with direEtious immediately to bring him, and kick hind all the way before This might be striflly according to the ruleS of mi litary discipline,, but it was not the way in: which civil process. was allowed to be executed, . The man; however, did appear,, and then the General began 'both to accuse and abuse him, and said, he would try.him by a Court Martial. The .Plaintiff begged . to he heard in his defence; but receiving. no permis sion to justify himself but. before a. Court Martial, he did venture to hint; that , being no soldier„, the Court Martial had nothing to do with him. The General, on this bare hint at a doubt of military authority, immediately sent for a-guard, and com mitted him to custody, where he was kept from the Monday until the FridaY following, on which latter day, the General finding he had abused his power, did condescen,d to let him go at large, It was fox this injury he appealed to a Jury of his countrymen, and he' telt flail confidence that he should have am. pie justice at their hands. , Ewen Cameron stated, that he was orderly-man .on the 26th of May. By the Pricrade-.Major's ders he went to fetch the Plaintiff to come to the General on parade. The 'Plaintiff said he wonld come diredly, as soon as he could. change his, clothes. When the Witness repeated this-answer to the General, he replied—" Why did' not the ras cal came directly ? Go again, tell him to come di redly you would have •done.right to have kicked him all the way before you." - In about ten mi nutes - the Plaintiff did come, 'and the Witness re tired out of hearing, and could not tell what was the conversation : he, however, saw the General was angry, 'arid he heard the Plaintiff say, " Sir, if I have done any thing wrong; lam sorry for it." He next heard the main-guard called for, and saw-a file of men take'the Plaintiff away in custody. . - V;rna. Logie, Brigade-Major, delivered. the gene rll's orders to the last Witness to fetch the Plaintiff The - General was very angry, as complaints had been made against 'Fisher for keeping his canteen open after the tattoo beating at nine in the evening, in consequence of which the soldiers gordrunk, and were frequently rioting. He threatened Fisher to .try him by a Court Martial, but the latter. behaved rather impertinently, and . would keep on talking in his - justification. Atidngth the General called for the main-critard and sent him 'to` the guard house., • ' William Deady, Serjeant of the Guard, printed that the Plaintiff was brought into custody, and re mained until the Friday. • ‘. . On.cross-examiAation of these witnesses, by Mr. Serjeant B i EST3 it appeared - that Fisher had kept his canteen opell after the regular hours. Mr. SPARTA/4G, Attorney in the cause, stated, that 'he called on the General the morning after theman was hi tustody, and reqdested his liberation. The General said . he would • try him by a •Court Martial. The Witness told him the Plaintiff - was not a soldier, and was -not subje& to Martial Law. The General replied, he would send to London for an opinion upon that point; and would keep him, at all events, "until he got an answer. Three Witnesses :Were then called, - who proved the great inconvenience the Plaintiff had sustained in his business'by this imprisonment, particularly, that two Regiments which.he had messed had marcad away during the time, and he had .bad no.opportu nity of collecting his debts. Mr. Serjeant BEST, for the Defendant, admitted a yerdia must go against his Client, but the damages should be bin small, as, he acted entirely from an error of judgment; he having erroneously supposed that the. Plaintiff was subjeat to be tried by a Court Martial ; but the moment he was apprised of that being an error, he released him. The Learned Ser-: jeant then commented on the, improper conduct of the Plaintiff, which tended to subvert, all military discipline, by promoting and encouraging drunken-. ness -in the soldiery; and trusted. the Jury Would think it was a case for mere nominal damages. • Mr. Justice HEATH observed to the Jury, that every person who ,held. a situation of power was bound to know the limits of his authority, and .was responsible if he stepped. beyond it., If, however, a man was doubtful as to the extent of his authority, be ought to consider whether what he was about to do was consistent with the •diEtates of natural jus tice. It appeared that there were complaints urged against the Plaintiff ; it became then the General - to make inquiry into 'those complaints, and give the accused person an opportunity_ of being at least beard in his defence; instead of which he would not bearthim at all. If he had really - been doubtful of the extent of his authority, he had to occasion to *end as far aS London to remove his doubts ; there 'were Gentlemen of the Law. at Colchester who could have given him the necessary'information. The 'Jury found a verdict for the Plaintiff--Da mages 501. • dßoc*::7 SIDE PULL ON GALLEY'WOOD COMMO'. ..- _ • Ahn , fisher, the :principol, -Guy ,Campbell ,and . - „lam 'Blakeman, the seconds; wer - arraigued on' the coroner's Inquest (tae Grand Jury. having thrown out the bill of indiCti.nent) for tine murder of Henry Torrence, on the 22d of March last, at the Twist) 'of ChelmsfOrd.. .. ' . - . . Theparties tothis charge were all Officers .of,the 6th Regimpt of Foot, and the deceased, Mr. Tor rence, was a Lieutenant in the same Regiment, who fell in a duel, as .was s-upposed,.with-Mr.Fisher. • - The first - Witness gilled was. Constantine 'John. Day, Assistant Surgeon tO, the Regiment. Before he was sworn, he bPgged.leave to address the Court;, 'Which being granted, he said.---‘f My Lord; Whoever were the parties to this unfortunate affair, I am my- , self So deeply !Triplicated, tirat I cannot give evidence "consistent with my own. safety." Loan 0141EF BARON—" Then, Certainly, Sir, you cannot be exaniined to your . ownaccusation." Richard Preston deposed, that the *deeeased, Mr. Torrence, came to his ,room on the, evening of the -21st of March, and said that lie had that day ins - ult:- ed Lieutenant Fisher on the Parade, by striking'him, and calling him a coward. The WitneSs. endea voured to allay his irritation, 4 and persuade him to rata& the expression, and to Make an apology to Mr. Fisher ; but he sent for his . pistols, and went away, swearing he would shoOt Fisher if he dared to - meet Mini: He knew nothing of the duel but from report.. The servant of the deceased was also examined. He stated, that his master, on the night preceding , his death, sent him' with a Letter to Captain Ca meron, .and appeared surprised that he bronght,no answer;, for he immediaroly pbt on his_ sword and sash, apparently in great agitation, and 'went out. Just at the door he met Captain Campbell, and they went away together. The next morning he heard his master was-shot, and he went upon the ground. He there found:him extended, and wounded'-in the Lgroin. 'He said, ". Oh; Richard, do not come near me !" that was all he said, for he died in a few mi . Oates after, and did not tell the Witness who had clone it. The LORD CHIEF BARON told the Jury there was no evidence whatever against the Prisoners. They were accordingly—Acquitted. .lames Hack and William' 11 icholls were convi&ed of bigamy! There was nothing singular .in their cases, the prosecution being at the instance of the parishes to which the first wives were left charge able. . The LORD CHIEF BARON finished all the business on this sidun Friday evening, and left the town. CIVIL SIDE. SATURDAY, JULY Mr. Justice HE A TH : finished on this Side before breakfast; there were but two trifling causes re maining, in "which the last, Leach v. Wilson, was an 7aEtion to recover 101. which the Plaintiff had given the Defendant in change for a Norwich Bank note. It afterwards turned out that .the note had been paid thirty years ;ago, and the Bank had long ago_dissolved.• The only evidence to prove the case was the Attorney for the Plaintiff, who 'stated, the Defendant admitted to him that he had paid the Plaintiff the note in question. GARROW, in a very ingenious speech, depre cated the danger of admitting this species of testi : 'mony. The Jury, however, found a verdi& for the Plain tiff. The Assizes concluded. • Bow-STREET.— On Saturday evening Bill Chapel, a notorious charaaer, was, brought before Sir DANIEL WILLIAMS,' the Sitting Magistrate,' charged 'by. Rivett, the Officer, with being concerned with the Well-knoWn James Ewe in defrauding Mr. Robert JoneS; of Banner, near Lanhaugh, Denbighshire, of between e l ,o and 901. about 'two "Rears since. It appeared from the statement of the Officer, that Jones Vas decoyed into a public-house, in SonthamptonJbuildings, Holborn, by the .prisoner, who was alWays dressed' to 'have the appearance - of a salesman or farmer:, They were soon followed by Lowe, Who aeled the part' of an ignorant farmer, and,. in. a short time, commenced gambling with the Prisoner, at the old 'ffickiof chalking under the hat. Irr Jones was persuaded tojoin , them in wagers, and he,proved at first the winner. They continued laying wagers till the above large amount was ob i • tamed from Jones, into the possession of Lowe, when the latter pretended to have occasion to •go to the door, but .not returning, Mr. Jones went' to look for him, and in the mean 'time the .prisoner set off. • The Prisoner requested permission to be sent to his old favourite quarters, New ,Prison, Clerkencve~ll, with which the •Magistrate complied : lie is' about 07 yearS of age.. • ' Rivett met Chapel *by accident, at'Cilaringerosr, on Saturday morning.' We have received letters from Ceylon.to, the ad of March. A letter from Columbo, dated the 2d, says-!--P General MAITLAND, since his arrival, has altered prodigiously the face of affairs : his 'first aCt was to cancel our Military Boa'rd and most of:the appointments made by his predecessor. The sala lles•of individuals were next reduced, the revenues of -the Island augmented, and more regular modes of colleeting them adopted ;" in fail, we are no ionger'what we were : instead of being a deadly weight to the Mother Country, it appears we have enough in our own resources. It is said, since his arrival, no less than half a million sterling has been saved in•the expences of the Island. No offensive operatiOns are now going on against the Candians the General Orders prohibit it ; in one or two in-. stances I have heard of cattle being broUght from the Interior-to Trincomalee for sale,-and the people returned unmolested. An Embassy to the Court of Candy is talked of; but, I believe, the GoVerner' considers them too contemptible to treat with.— While we keep our present boundaries' nothing :can hurt us, and getting more can do us no good.. Our inancier's last step to augment the resources will bertainly prove produetive ; it is a stamp duty on all transfers of land and' household property ' • it tears ,an impost of five per cent. receipts of three per cent. and. bills of exchange." . or Messta.

ATTEMTTS AT SUICIDE.--Besides the numerous attempts at self-destrualion in the Serpentine River; no less than . four females have, within the last fort night, , plunged into the Thames, from the railing opposite to, Lambeth Palace, but all of them 'have been rescued. On Frlday night a young. woman was perceived by some tiserrnen to throw herself .over ; and .on• repairing to her assistance, they - found her nearly suffocated in the mud. On restoring - her to her senses, she gave them her address at a.Gen tlemaris house in Westminster`; but on conveying her thither in a coach, - admittance was refused, as. it appeared she NAra s' discarded wife who received:a. sepaiate 'maintenance.
