Boßouoit or HACKNEY. —At a meeting of
parishioners of Hackney, at the old Town-hall, on Thurs-
day evening, it was unanimously resolved to invite Mr.
Samuel Morley to become a candidate for the representa-
tion of the new borough. Mr. Morley is a native of
Hackney ; his family have long resided in it and it is
believed, so great lithe respect entertained for his character
b 7 many who do not sympathise with all his political
views, that he might be returned almost without the
trouble of issuing an address, or the personal canvass of a
single voter.

ANOTHER INTELLIGENT BUCEINGRAIRSHIREJVRY.
—At the Bucks Maisel this week, held in this town, in
the case of a young man tried for manslaughter, the Jury,
after emuidenng their verdict for more than a quarter of
an hour, by their foreman announced that they found the
primm .er ' not guilty." The Lord Chief Justice inquired
on what ground. they bad arrived at that conclusion ?"
on which one of the jurymen rose and said, " I have not
agreed to it, my lord, I consider the prisoner. guilty,"
causing considerable clamour amongst the other jurymen.
His lordship then refused to accept their verdict, upon
which they were locked up. They returned to the court
in a short time, when the same foreman gave the verdict
of the twelve, " guilty" with a recommendation to mercy.
