QI:ARTER ASBEIIIBLY, DUBLIN,

ialy 90, tsto.
After the dispatch of the usu.., buoileis relative
to the admission of persons to the Freedom of the
City, Mr. Si N N ETT moved for the apponitioent of
a Committee to tak.. 1.110 consideration the condi-
tion 44 their poor tellow-citizens, the Minsufactur-
ers of Dublin, and to devise the best method of
affording them relief.

Mr. GI Ff ARD seconded the motion. Ile thought
it the boundeu duty of every man to endeavour to
alleviate the distresses of the: poor artisans of Dub-
lin—and hoped, however Gentlemen' might dilier
oil other topics, that there would be only one opi-
nion on the question before them. He could as-
sure them, that at the meeting of the navy Coop-
ed, melt of opposite political pi:iiciples had at-
tended, that •II ',arty dissension had given way to
the feelings of humanity. and that they all must cor-
dially concurred in todeavouring to give elf,et to
the bei.ovolent iotentiou of the Lord Lieutenaist, to
alleviate the miseries of the wretches' artizsiss 01
Dublin. He then re”ssinmended the consumption of
home-made matiufaciures. and entered iota a cal-
culation to whew the great relief that would be
given to the poor. if only 5,000 persons could Ise
found (though lie was sure that Infire could be
found) to expend 101. each in the purl hale of ar-
ticles of wear. bet as mutate. in our little Council.
the unanimity which prevailed at the Castle. I
hope that all party dissension will be forgotten in
our endeavours to relieve the miseries of our fellow-
cit,sent.—aiid that our only contention will be, in
yielding to each other who will be ferensost.
A Committee was accordingly appoiuted, whn
has inK retired, come to three Resolution,: the
first. highly approving the plan of auhecnotion pro-
posed by his Grace the Lord Lieotenant; `the
ortwod, to promote the use and consumption of
Irish Maiinfictures; and the third, to appoiut
Committees to go through the several oartslies, and
receive the signatures of such persons as were dis-
posed to follow those humane and necessary mea-
sures.

Mr. Coes said it was the wish of Mr. Alderman
Show to be allowed the privilege of sitting in the
Commons' House, dining their proceedings, that
he might the better understated the sentiments and
opinions of his coastituents.
Mr. Parr aims—l agree to that motion, pro-
vided the Commons be 11.)vird to go up 'Lairs.—
(A heves.,
Mr. Come did not persevere in his motion.
Hurrosi then made Lis promised motion for
the 'titre*, of the (Noon. He preform) it by a very
short 5r....11, ter e Melt he adverted to the misery of
his fellow-eitizens, t)..reft of employmeet, and pe-
rishing trout absolute I.onger. He said, that their
tiiiparalleled wietcheline as ought to awaken the
feelings of humanity to make every possible exertion
to alleviate their eutVeriugs. lie then mentioned,
that he had brouAlat o the house three Resolutions,
but that the appoint mei.t ut the Committee which
had just taken phee, superseded the necessity of
his proposing one of I itPtn ; he, the, rforr, read only
the other two, which ae, e es follow :

option.

Mr. Hurrox then adverted to the immense im-
ports from England, •nd to the great drain of mo-
ney from Ireland to sopport absentees, and to pay
the interest of the sums borrowed in England. ■s
this country was so poor as not to be able to advance
money for the service of Government.

Mr.Gtreanocoraplained of the advantage which
any Gentleman, who brought forward any 'notion,
had over the person who might undertake to re-
ply to him, inasmuch as he may take his measures
at leisure, and know what he intends doing before-
hand ; whereas the defence must arise upon the mo-
ment—that the Griot part of the first Resolution
was unnecessary, as the loyalty of the Corporation
was undoubted ituJ ummpeuchable ; but that the
second was in itself an audacious and arrogant at-
tack on His Majesty.
Mr. I MITT •neq.orted Mr. Hutton's Revolutions.

Mr. M'Aumr rose to oppose them. lie hated
the Union ; but to it Ell the distresses of the country
were not to be imputed. They were caused by the
voluptuousness and pride of the citizens of Dublin;
they were in a plethora, and wanted blood-letting.
Their extravagance brought on the getters' bank-
ruptcy of the country. Dup.'s .•ly it was the Union.
You might as sr, ll say the ti -e at Constantinople
was caused by the Union. Liankruptcy is the ord. r
of the day in England as well its io Ireland : your
bankruptcy is caused by meu of no capitol—no ho-
nonr—no honesty ; men of iro capital or of small ca-
pital, who hind their interest to keep up the smoke of
delusion—fly-kites—rained like Icarus to the cloud.,
their wings of paper melt. and down they drop; said
then they cry unt, the Union has destroyed Ireland.
A short debate ensued, when Sir iamt.s RID-
DIML decided that the qiirsturo should be put ; it
wig teveordingly put, upon which the worthy Knight
declared the motion passed in the affirmative.

Mr. PARKE stated, that the Plaintiffs were free
fishermen of the toe ii of %limitable in the coni.ty
of Kent, and Lilt Defendant kept att oyster-house
in Lombard-stre.-t. On Ins going down to the
wharf, he inquisid from the Company', ialtdrian,
if the oysters were good : he answered, as good es
they generally were in frosty weather. They acre
sent home on tie, folio% ing morning. lie under-
stood that a defence was to be set up, that the '
oysters were nut marketable: they did nut receive
a warranty front the sideman, for they were as all
others were in frosty weather, weak. He (the learned
Counsel) was not a judge of oysters, for he never
eat them, but he could easily conceive what effect
frost would have on thew. lie was not a Physician
sulbcient to explain the nature of their &sailer,
hum he would produce some *mires,' who had chit
fortune not to he in the saute ata:e 01 4;l.mm:cr. as
they had from their earliest age • ide the con tia
tution of oyster% died- study : they would inform the
jury, that, although they Were not in a state of con.
valesetice, their disorder were not dangreous, and
were fit fur use. Mr. Edward Edenton, the ►ales
men, called on the Defendant sonic time after the
sale, fur a settlement; when lie said the oysters had
expired before they came into his poesesAon. and
he was obliged to pay a dust-man for th.•ir inters
mein. lie then proceeded to call his witnesse*.
Edward Edenton, the saleemsa, was railed. bet
he acknowledged that he was proprittur of ems
share in the company.
William Dare, a measurer of oysters, then des
posed, that on Buritig-day, the ctith of Dee embers
about 7 o'clock in the morning, the Dideintant's
nephew came down to the wharf, and 6.i.i his uncle
was very uneasy to get the oysters he had ordsred
the evening before. Mr. Edenton told him, part of
them were *rut, ■od the remainder were memoir..
tug : ten bushels were sent at 21. 4s. per bushel.
he called with Edenton on the Defendant: Edenton
asked him if he nirant In pay Inm, he said not;
Edenton answered, lit would leave it to arhitrat en,
which the Defendant reformed to comply with. but
said he would gave leas 61. and be done with the
business._

Samuel lloart, salesman to the Mittens Oyster
Company, deposed. that on Cbristmare-day pa"
Gr u ,14 at the sego of the Cork, Love-lane : the De-
fendant came ill, and asked if Edenton had any
oysters ; Captain 'ferry, who brought them up,
answeied, yes : he asked how they were ; Terry said
they were as usual in such weather.
James Peak deposed, he inelemled the oysters ;
they did not stink, but they were wink.

blew. Itioapenurch deposed, she kept an oyster
warehouse in Mi.:floral-lane: she purchased eight
tmehels on the 26th of December 1008, from
Edenton ; she was to live paid 525. a bushel fur
them, but Edeuton hearing they did not turn out
as well as expected, he took ten shillings a bushel
off: she paid at the rate of 425.; there were some
dead ones amongst them, which were thrown away.
Oii her cross-examination. she said she parked
them up in barrels, and sent them to her customers
in the country : she never heard them complained
of; dead area sold au sales; she sold the barrels ut
7.. apiece. It was hardly fair to ask her how many
barrels were in a bushel.
William Giles bought eleven bushels at 425. ;
they were generally weak. it war customary for
them to be so after frost. He would have been
afraid to have been kicked out of au oyster-rooms.
if he had opened them for sale there. Ile did not
think they were fit for packing, they might baro-
ahswered fur sauce.
John }Lipsey bought 10 bushels, he sent 69
barrels of them to the country. at 7s. a barrel ; he
never beard any complaint of them ; he also
opened a great number of them in his Oyster.
rooms ; there was no fault found with them.

Mr. GARIION, Counsel for the Defendant, con-
tended, that the Plaintiff was not bound to pay; as
the oysters were not saleable. lie did not think the
Cognpany were well advised when they brought the
action, for it would have the Effect of making per.
sons cautious how they purchased Whl,teibile Ova-
ten. lle acknowledged he had the advantage of
his learned Wend, who, by his own account, would
not know an oyster from a muscle ; now he, Mr.
Garrpw, knew what en oyster was, and when it
was dead, the shell renvalued open, and they
sonnded hollow—that was the case with dime der
livered to the defendant ; he did not defend this
action for the amount seed for, bet for the bear&
of others. Ile ',wild prove, that be refused to
receive them, and they were put into bit cellar coo-
trary to his wird); that they becimind a nuisance,
and he was obliged to pay to have thesu removed.
William Ron, the nephew of the defendant,
proved, that the oysters were not artarupted to be
sold, and they became a nui.ante ; but it was nut
until a mouth after their delivery; hut on his cros.-
eximination. it appeared that he was a kind of a
pal tuer of the defendant's.
Mr. PARILI replied.
Lord ELLENDOROUGU—" Gentlemen of the
Jury, it appears from the evidence that nu warranty
had Wit On. The Defendant was told they
were in the woe stale of all other maters after a

tiff had breathe rsrtner Ofklaitinati Boydell
and 'was his successor iu business ; and as such
brought the present action. Thevespeciable name
of Boydell could not be unknou a to the Court and
Dory ; they were celebriskerl engraVers. The De-
fendant hid been a Colonel in the army, and a
Member df Parliament for the Borough of Lancas-
ter. lira &feeding this action mut: be altogether
attributed to forgetfulness: he subscribed. as tit.
Leek asl/97. for the numbers of Sliaktpear*. lie
would prove their delivery : but the defence set
lie would toot attribute to such a 111311 us the De-
Tendairt, who had held a high post mdse army and
Senate, but to his advisers, who had misled him.
The plea which he hod entered was that of the
Statute of Limitation. He Must have fancied he
had paid the Plaintiff's account ; ur perhaps he
found a receipt of some other person's for WI.
which he thought was the discharge of the Plaintiff
for his debt : however he might have deceived
1 • self, or have been deceived, his plea would not
answer : he had paid five 'wands into Court for the
only item that had been received by him within 6
years, it was the supplementary prints to Boydell's
publication of Shakspeare : he did not wish to at-
tribute any blame to the Defendant, only that he
had a must treacherous memory, for he held in
his hand letters from the Defendant to the Plaintiff
as late as HOC in which he acknowledged the
debt. He (Nlr. Attorney-General) hoped he had
nut given offence by accusing the memory of the
Defendant, for if it was not defective, the plea that
had beers entered was the most base that ever had
been put oil record. He would prove the letters,
which would entitle the Plaintiff to a verdict.—
There wits some little difference about a set of
llocortke Lone A-14-zoode ; the Plaintiff had pre-
sented him with only one set, and the Defendant in
one of his letters, said he was entitled to two.
The letters were then read by Mr. Lowten ;
they fully wade out the statement of Mr. Attorney-
General.

Mr. SEUL/CANT. on the part of the Defendant,
contended, that the plea of the Statute of Limita-
tion was pe►fectly bottou►uble and justifiable. The
Defendant was unaccustomed to businees, and did
not know the date of his letters; he had procured
the original iseintings of flugarth fur the late Alder-
man Boydell: there was an agreement between
them; it was only a verbal one, but it was such as
to give the Defeiciant a conviction in his mind.
that it would have been more than sufficient for a

against the Defendant, a respectable printer in
Chancery-lane. who had piloted the book, to re-
cover 37.1 copies of it.
It appeared, that the Plaintiff, who is a Physi-
ciao, wrote a hook, and employed the Defendant
to print it : when it was completed, anti he had
shown a few copies of it to his friends, he was ad-
vised by them to suppress it, for if he published it,

hak•r, tieing in the cone place. to recover damages
foe &finning his character as a ;professional man.
It appeared that ilw Plaintiff had been fw •
tweeters of years carryinil on the Wiliness of a baker
iu Drptford, and the Defendant hail lately can-
wieweerl. weed to make a practice of foiluwing
the Plaintiff when he went to peeve toe elastomers,
eal!ing not aloud that his bread was pernicious,
made of poisonous itieredieuts, and short of weight.
These facts were proved by eight witnesses.
On the part of the Defendant, a man of the name
of LaVlite deposed, that it was the Plaintiff who had
ahnsed the Defendant's bread. This witness de-
scribed hims-lf as keeping the Priaeess of Wales,
