COURT OF RING'S BENCH, Wegymigitga,
THumsoar, Bonus= 16.
JUDGMENT&
The SOLICITOR GEN ERA r. mooed the judgment
of the Court on Hersey Connie, trial before Mr.
Justice Burrough, at the last Sussex Assizes, and
found guilty of au insult on Mr. Daniel Spurshott.
Mr. Justice BEST read the notes of the Learned
Judge taken at the trial, from which it appeared
the insault was violent stud unprovoked.
The Defendant (016 was formeily Lieutenant
of his Majesty', ship Severn. of which the Plaintiff
is Purser). in his defence alleged that the first as.
adult was committed by the Plaiutiff, who tode Isis
horse ageing him, us he woo riding along the
beech at Sussex. lie produced certificates oh good
conduct IN an officer for sixteen years.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL, in aggravation, dis-
canted on the unprovoked brutality of au assault
committed on a person in the situation of the pro.
secotor, advanced in years and neatly blind.
Mr. Justice. BAY LI Y pronounced the sentence of
the Court. which on., that the Defrurfunt be int-
pinioned fur three calendar months 111 the King's
Brandi prison, mud afterwards ratter into recagni-
zances to be of good behaviour for five year., him-
' self to 1001. and two suretirovin 501. each.
THR Elmo T. GF.OROF: BEER.

The Defendant was- foetid guilty at the London
later Hilary Term last, under en informu.
non filed by the Attorney-Genera. fur publishing
u scandalous and seditious libel on the King. ll'he
libel was published in the Republican. The De-
fendant was shopmais to Richard Cantle, of Fleet-
street.
On the application of Mr. Comma, the Court
postponed giving judgment till shirt day work, on
the ground that- there were two affidavits to be read
in mitigation of punishment, which had been sworn
before the. Magistrate inured of before a Commis-
sioner of this Court, which, according to the rule of
the Court, they ought to be.
TOE MVO V. MARY ANN CARLILI.
Mr. GURNEY moved the judgment of the Court
on this Defendant, convicted at the sittings alter

phemous libel against the Christian Religion. ..
Mr. Justice BEST having read his tortes of the
trial--
Mr. COOPER rose arid addressed the Court in mi-
. tigationofpientshinent. He premised, by observ-
ing, that 1w should nut utter one word winch could
be construed as disrespectful to our holy
for which he had the highest veneration, and which
even its enemies must acknowledge was the purist
that ever was spread on d. face of the rasp. There
was is certain odium attaching to the creed of the
Defendant and her faintly, front the supposed min.
chirvous tendency of it, against which he would
presume to beg reel, the Court to divest itself. On
that creed hr would say oohing; he would not set
qx Cathedra 011 the belief of any person; front the
Christian religion be learnt not to condemn any one
for speculative opinions, but lie wouldcondemis that
hypocrisy which arrogated to itself such s right, fur

evidence of experience, looking to what pasetil in
France at the time of the Rev.plution, it would be
found that there even the d ciatiou of the
Government which pronounced that religion existed
no longer, was of no avail ; bat as soon a. anarchy
subsided, the people, or a great majority of them,

the thuig to be feared was, not that a whole people
should be desecrated, but that religion should dege-
nerate into superstition. He made these observations
with a view of sliewirig that there was not that danger
of religion being undermined which twine persons of
timid disposition seemed to imagiiie. However lois-
takeii, or however cni‘ellievoris theopitsiorisof his client
and tier connexions might be (and he was speak-
ing now of what was wailer of notoriety) yet the
constancy with which they suffered, though by
some it might be termed etubburotress, was still
evidence of their sincerity, and must remove front

Mr. Oaken` mid he felt confident, that when- i
iever the champions of Christianity were celled Werth
to the earobAt, they would march to victory. Btu
that was a very different ease from publications like
the present, which cootained no argument, but were
merely addresses to the missions of those who were
not competent to give such subjects a fair emlsion-
titbit. On the libel itself he thought he need say
little ; it appeared to him to be of the most malig-
nant character. With regard to the covduct of the
Defendant, he had no doubt, that, mixed with in-
tentioura of malignity to the community, there was
a sordid view to gain. Their Lordshipo had bad to
palm sentence for a similar offence, first on Richard
Carlik. then on his wife, that morning s slicipmen
of theirs was on the floor of the Court, and, lastly,
they had now the sister. What dial this @hew lint a
systematic attempt te set the law st defiance?
What other mode of suppressing this introduce
could there be but by exerting the utmost severity
of the .law, to convince them that in this contest
the law would be the stronger ?
Mr. PAARRTATT followed on the same side.

Mr. Justice BATLIT delivered the sentence sit

country every man had a right to entertain what
opinions he chose ; it wits a matter entirely between
God and his own conscience; but it could not be

ePablications like the one in question might have
several views; that of gain might be one ; and it
could riot be endured that the highest hope' of man
should be put in risk as a source of 'will i. The sen-
tepee of the Court was, That the Defendant do pay a

ties of that time do give securities for seven

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.
Mr. PoLLucit moved for a rule to show coos"
Why a criminal information should out be filed
against certain Bergesset of Berwick-opou-Twee d,
He moved this on the affidavit of tire Mayor and
Town Clerk. At II Guild which was held, certain
tells were let, and. subsequently, on the 3d Octo-
ber last. a head Guild was held for the purpose of
affixing the Corporation Peal to the 'robe of to
tolls, and for other matters. Immediately after the
seal was affixed to the lease, a great noise and teiiil
fault consmenced in the Hall, and two of the Bat:
I:it's's (named iu the affidavii) came within tb
apace railed off for the Mayor. and for those pea
1101111 who had 'served offices in the Corporation, acid
with clenched fiats and menacing gestures, threst=
rued to burn the deed. These two persons were
encouraged by five or six others, Burgesses (AM
named in the affidavit), who were forward ilie
making noise and tumult. The Mayor dile*
?mired in vein to appease the tumult, undrielliw
mately he was obliged to dismiss the niestfilliC
while the business of it was still wifinished, mit
on proceeding home the Town Clerk was attacked
by two of these individuals, who tore open hams coot,
as if to search for the deed, and both the Mayor
✓od the Town Clerk were nearly thrown Over the
balustrades of the Hell. He (Mr. Pollock) moved
for this rule to convince these Burgesses that they
bad no right so to conduct their opposition.
The COURT granted the rule, and Mr. Justice
BATLEY observed, that perhaps the rule would
bring the parties to a sense of what they ought
to do.
Mr. Dowttrie moved thejudginent of the Court
on David Graves Davy and Samuel Adam Stimald,
for perjury. The Defendants had been indicted,
bait had suffered judgment to go by default. The
Protecialor, Mr. iPlr ilha su Davy, was brother to one
ref the Defendants, who were partners at Plymouth-
dock in the trade of drapers and general dtaler.,.
He had, from motives of brotherly aflectionordvanced
nearly 6,0001. to them ; but theieulfairs becoming
embarrassed, they were, in 1819, declared bank-
rupts, and on. their examination before the. Coin-
imissioisers they gave a very onsatislactory account
eflarlit dealings; soon After which the Provecutor
arrested them both ; and eras himself' shortly after
arrested mi the alhilavits of the two Defesulanta, for
a supposed debt of 14.0001. It was for the per-
jurf.in lei swearing that.„the Defendants were now
brought up for jedgmenr..-. • .i.:,
The Prosecutor put in long aSdirvita detailing
the facts. The Defendants tendered to the Conrt
two affidavits, buy as they were written on un-
stamped paper the,,Court could not receive them.—
On the application of the Defendants, judgment
was postponed, and they were ordered to be
brought up again to-morrow morning.
