YORKSHIRE ASSIZES. JULY 27.

VALIDITY OF A WILL.
PDE W. FLETCIIF.R.
Mr. LITTLIMALK and Mr. Seijeant FIULLoCK
seemed reedy to go through the escort course fur the
pi,juric bug. ar a ~barter mode of proceeding, Mr.
SCARLETT, for the Defendant, milder...eel the Jury
frot. A Mr. Fletcher in North ()dram. felt par-
ticularly anxious to make • will, whirl. hi* neigh-
bour, Mr. Stoke', could neither discover nor is,-
validate. Believing that Mr. Stokes ronitl leery,
every thing frum near anomie., Mr. F'etelirr Ltot
an attoeney ten miles off to make his wilt. Ile was
isuprehreisive that his nephew, John Fletcher, the
Plaintiff, who was heir at law, would he prevailed

Stokes felt annoyed by his houses Intercepting hi.
view. l'he will was made in &van? of Mrs. Flet-
cher, in the first instance ; then of the Plaintiff, the
heir at law ; and next, of his heirs. The heir was
thus only put one chip backwards; when the widow
died be would have it all.

The whole machinery of making and executing
the will war satsfactorily loosed. The ing •ty
of crors.exansination was applied to a paralytic
stroke, which the testator had exli.riesteril. and to
his unbounded apprehensions of Mr. Siiikes. But
the will appeared to have been west soundly anti
competently made.
Mr. Serjeunt HuLLOCE expressed his apprelsen.
sion that he was not able to struggle against this
evidence, and. upon being told by his Lorsl•hip
that it was idle to attempt it, remarksd, that they
must wait till the widow died. .

"That shall be as long as I can," replied the
widow, a strong healthy lady, who sat immediately
behind the Serjeant.
Mr. Serjeinit Hu LLOCIC--" I am g 14.1 to see you
look so well, Ma'Atn."—(Mach ;leer riming I.)
Verdict for the Defendant.
ASSAULT AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT.
ALSO! R. TORR.

Mr. SCARLSTT stated this close to the Jury. If
they were acipsatated with Doncaster, they would
know that the Defendant was a druggist there, a
Commissioner of the Court of IL-quests, and that
he was known as s' the Great Torr." The Plain-
tiff was a dancing-master in Durham's. His father
hat prscti.ed surgery in Donee-ter. lu the month
of February last the Plaintiff went to Doncaster to
attend the funeral of a relation. The Great Tim
had then discovered that the Plaintiff's father had
been brought to the Court of Requests, in 1797,
for 395. 11fil. The father and the son's name was
Edward Alien. The Great Torr, therefore, ap-
plied to Mr. Bright's clerk for an execution against
the son, in February, 1819. The clerk refused,
but during his absence in London, the Great Torr
got the execution from a boy in the office, and had
the Durham dancing-master taken into custody.
These facts were proved in evidence.
Mr. Serjeant HULLOCK made an ingenious and
eloquent speech for the Defendant.

Dear Colihett, I have lately learnt
Your house at Hempstead has hien buirnt,

Poor " Mrs. Clitircher," who was baking,
It most have act her heart a quaking.
And yet, 'tis nothing strange; lour tissue,
Which puts all England in a dente—
Your crackling genius, with a spark,
Might easily consume " Hyde Park...
Your thoughts grew too inflammatory,
And set on fire your upper rim :
For, as I understand the case,
First on the roof the blaze took place.
As to the loss, don't mention it,
'Ti. rather, Sir, a lucky hit
Dame Fortune for you thus has made,
To keep you in your usual trade.

Another house to bless your eyes.

IN THE CAST OF THE kI •cetNsr

It will he in the recollection of the public, that
a rule A'isi was some lime since most(' fur and ob-
tained is, the Court of Kin's lietsch, upon the 111fi.
d wit of one Charles James Wrench, calling upon
Alessrs.Thomas and litchurd Abbott to stern cause
why one or more infortinttions should not be filed
against them fur certain misdemeanors. Against this
rule Mr. Serjeatit Vattgliim sliewrd cause last Term,
and in the course of the proceeding, having stated that
•Il the imputations u:iouveyed by tl'rencli had been
lushly de.iit I, the Lord Chief Justice asked if the
charge way rounded 'spun his altdavit minor, which
being answered 11l the affitinative by Mr. Searlett,
1118 Lordship said, stately a Grant! Jury ought to
have an opportunity of judging cf the credit of
IVrencli, and that it was fitter to go before the or-
dinary till als amulet these circumstance* th au to
apply to the Cow, for its summary interposition.
Mr. Scarlest upon this intimated that he did not
mean to persevere, and the Lord Chief Justice re-
plied, si You do quite right, the rule must be dis-
charged." 011 the sth instant, Mtssrs. Abbott
preferred an litchi:mesa before the Grand „tory i,l*
the County of Middlesex, for wilful and malicious
perjury by Wrench in that affidavit, and the Grand
Jury yesterday returned a true bill.
We shall abstain from all comment on the con-
duct of Wrench, w:uether he was the author of the
motion against Messrs. Abbott himself, or was in-
duced to take that step at the instigation of onsets,
until his guilt or innocence shall be fully established
by that tribunal before which he will shortly be ar-
raigned and tried fur the offence with which he now
stunt!. charged.

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY, Serramsea 1, 1619.

Letters and Papers hare been received from New
York to the 27th July. The United States are
become quite impatient for the cession of the Flo-
ridas, and will feel deeply mortified should it not
le carried into effect. A later bobs an Oflicrr in
the service of Spain, to his relations in New York,
states, that a war with America was confidently ex.
peeled. The following is from the National Intel-
ligeneer
" We published a day or two ago an extract of a
letter from Cadii, imputing to the Spanish Aullio.
rifles intentional disrespect to the American flag,
in omitting to display it on the occasion of a general
shew of flags, &c. in that harbour. The 'Veto
York Carrae states, on the aerthority of a gentle-
' man who was present, that this neglect grew out of
a misunderstanding or inadvertence, in which the
Officers of the Hornet had their full , Pharr. As
just causes enough of heart-burnings between us
and foreign nations will occur front year to year,
let them act be causelessly excited."

Letters have been received from Oldie to the
11th, and Madrid to the 16:h of Augur, which
state, that King FERDIN•ND liar, with the advice
of his Ministers, refused to ratify the Tastily ceding

Of .overt sets of high treason. Well, then ! these
greetings were all illegal, even under the old dim-
pens.stioss, and consequently might have been
din
presed by the Magistrates of the respective places,
and the individuals taking a part in such meetings
might have bean severely punished. Have we not,
then, a right to demand why. in a case that admit-
test of no doubt, and where the punishment would
have been exemplary, the power of the old laws
was nut put in experiment, instead of applyiug to
Parliauteist for new enictinesits ? No new law was
required to render these meetings illegal, or to
check the abuse of which Ministers have e isl•in-
ed, and which alone, iii their tender regard, as they
det fared, for the right of public meetings, induced
them to interfere, lest the abuse might so far
disgust the prople is to make them issdiffsrent to
the existence of the privilege ! Actuated by .irdp.
kr apprehensions for the liberty of the press, and
fearing lest the disseminati tttt of blasithemon, and
seditious publications might induce Euglishmen to
surrender the right of freely expressing their opi-
nions, they kindly strpt in and sit.sjed our sacrile-
gious hands by taking the trembling bictim under

istence. Hat under the tutelage of the Ministers,
the press will possess about us much liberty as is
given by the cruelty of a mischievous urchin to his
captive bird, who clips its wings and ties a sten% to
its leg, and then bids it hap about and enjoy its (*in-
citing. From public meetings they have taken away
that invigorating spirit which numbers alone can
ettilillUtileste to the people ; they have emascu-
lated popular assemblies, and under pretence of
enabling the people, by the formation of smaller
, • bodies, to deliberate with more effect, they have,
its fact, placed them in a situation calculated solely
to expose them to the influence of their wealttier
neighbours, and to deprive them of the possibility
of exercising or expressing their own sentiments.
