against a Mrs. Moses, who, she stated, bad violently
assaulted her, without the slightest provocation.
Mr. Movie, the butband of the accused, informed
the Loan M A Tea, that his wife was unable to attend
the hearing, in consequence.Of the dreadful beating
she had received from the complainant. He was
sorry, he said, that he was the causo of the constant
quarrels between the two women ; formerly he had
lived with the complainant, but conceiving it better
to keep with his wife, he left Rebecca inurely. In
concerto-nee of this, she was continually abusing and
assaulting his wife, and had beat her so severely on
the present occasion, that she was now confined to
her bed.
The Complainant declared every word of this
was false ; but the Loan MA vo a not crediting what
the said, dismissed the complaint.
Two Watermen were fined in the mitigated pe-
nalty of five shillings, for teceiviag more than their

John Boyd, the slopseller, was yesterday again
brought up. on the charge of having set fire to his
house, in RotherLiths, on tho lit instant, with a view
of defrauding the Albion Insurance Company. He
was attended by Counsel, who took considerable
pains on his behalf. The Magistrates were of opinion
that the case was sufficiently proved ; and Boyd
was accordingly folly committed to take his trial,
kir a capital offence, at the nem Surrey Assizes.
The Company were inclined to
.have prosecuted
Boyd only for a misdemeanour. but the Magis-
trate& would nut allow that course to be pursued,
as they 'considered the circumstances cornpletely
wit:,in the meaning of Lord Ellenborough's APS,
by whiCh,' setting fire to any building, with inten-.
tion'to'Commit a fraud, is punishable with death.

Yesterday, Noakes, a non-aommiuioned officer ,
in the 1114.d.A.1 tidal y, charged a Mi. hloserere, a -
tradesmailain James's. with debauching hie wife..
and also with SO assault and false imprisonment. It
appeared, that the wiles of tire Complainant had
apartments at the hops* of a Mr. Sutton, in the
, neighbourhood of Whitcom'i-street; and the hut.
Land having hears something not altogether
congenial to his feelings, repaired to town, and
band the Defendant seated in the apartments of his
wiie. His situation was such as -searrausted an opi.
Ilion, that an illicit amour subsisted between them ;
mad. after considtrable altercation had taken place,
the husband sus:tended in getting away his frail rib
from the house.
, The Defe,idant followed them along the meet,
qnsittaig that the wit* should not go to Woolwich
with her busban ; .rod, on meeting two soldiers,
‘tie charged the husband with being a deserter, and
he was instantly dragged away to confinement, in
which sirua ion he war kept nearly tle4n days, when
an Officer from his regilient released him. The
Defendant by this stratag. m again got possession of
his prise, and he re.coiedufted her to her apart-
enema, where the husband, on being releised, found
her locked iii the aims of he' wood. The lady re-
fused to go with him a second tune, she haring
formed an attachment tnr another, and the husband
was then brraft of his fiad fait one.
The lady, in the Office, gave vent to a flnod of
fears. when the Manna' isaa ordered the Defend-
ant to find bail for his caudal, and became un-
manageable...
The landlord of the house was also held to bail
for an mutat on the husband, when kw went a se-
cond time to demand hikwite, for the *gam of
whom he had advertised.

We are happy to see it announced by advertise-
ment from the Filreitora-General of Inland Navi-
gation, that the great difficulty, upon the Navigation
between Limerick and Killaloe, the making a Cut
threngh the rock at Parteen, has been overcome,
and that it is now opened for trade. Three vessels.
with heavy cargoes. from Dublin, were towed
through it, by horses, to Limerick—an earnest of the
advanta's to be expeaed from such a communica-
tion between the two cities. The counties of Gal-
way; Clare, and Tipperary, will speedily proht of
this Navigation ; and when the Grand Canal Com-
pany Mall have fulfilled their contrail with the Di-
re fors-General for the Navigation from Athlone to
Portumna, which they are forwarding with great
spirit, a capital Navigation will be opened by the
Shannon, from Latteshorongh to Limerick, a triki
of about eighty Irish miles, immediately commu-
nicating with the counties of Roscommon, Long-
ford, Westmeath, King's county, Galway, Tippe-
rary, Clare, and Limerick, and from Shannon liar.
boor, near Banagher, with Dublin, by the Grand
Canal. We learn further, with great sati.faftion,
that the Royal Canal Company have carried their
works to Mullingar, from whence to Dublin, their
whole line will soon be opened. 'they are also ra-
pidly advancing the construaion of an aquedua and
harbour at the Broad-stone. and a communication
with the tide-water at the Liffey. We learn with
equal watisfaition, that the works for the Navigation
of the Barrow are advancing with no less prnspe&
of success. When that shall be completed, a Navi-
gation will be opened communicating with Dublin,
by the Grand Canal; with A day, Carlow, and Ross,
upon the Barrow ; with Inistingue and Tbomastown.
upon the Nore ; and with Watirford, Carrick, and
Vlonmel, upon the Suit.. A junction of the Rota
Canal with the Shannon, and the.cornpletiag the ria-
vigatioh of that great river from Lanesborough to
Lough Allen, are still wanting, and we do not doubt
will be considered with just attention.
