NSTAN LET r. P:II.I7ANT.

Tills was eu acunn fur the value of certain goods,
alleged to be the propery of Plaintiff, which were
tin properly detained by o.•fenitaiit.
The Plaintiff, it appeared was a broker, and had
supplied Mu Wm. Manners, while iii the King's
Bench, with certain article,* of furniture, a hit h, on
the enlargement of Sir William, had been placed
ill the custody of the present D.fendant, as a secu-
rity for the sum of 51. due by Wm-Wiley to him.
Mr. Pheasant, on his quitting .he King's Bench, had
left the furniture in the care of a Mr. Btu. e ;
who, being called on the part u:1 the Plaintiff, de-
posed, that. its August 11.407. he kiwis Mr. Ph. a.
emit in the Mug's Beech ; lath n he left it he put
the goods under the care of the witness; Mr. Win-
stauley might have got them by paying lee pounds
to Mr. Pheasant ; that was the sum fur W:ncli thew
were security; Mr. Pheasant hail sent for Win-
staidey, awl he was perfectly aware of the circum-
Wailer. When Mr. Pheasant went to the century,
he left the goods In charge of the witness, with di-
rections to deliver theirs op to 11'instaiil-y. on his
perm., the 101. ; but Winstanley newer Made an
infer of any y. Ile said he would call on Mr.
Pheasant. and if he did nut ply the 101. in a day
or two, he would forego all right to the property.
Ile never dad call ; nor had the witness ever heart,

the action. The goods, he thought. were worth

made directly against him—Mr. Pitcher, the
Plaintiffs Attorney, was produced for the purpose
of contradicting his statement.
Mr. ierjeant BM objected to the Counsel on
the part of the Plaintiff calling evidence fur the
purpose orcontrailicting his own witness.
Lord Chief dustier Nlasistino over-ruled the
objection. It frequently leappeued that witnesses,
when they came into Court, spoke very differently
from what they haul given reason to suppose they
would, and completely deceived the Counsel fur
the party in whose behalf thew were called; and
he did not think it improper, where such was the
case, that evidence of a different description should
ealled.—tt Vet know, brother Best. you did
the **roe thing in the famous horse cause."
Mr. Pitcher was then essinined.—The substance
of his deposition was, that he hail liven told by Mr.
Pheasant di it his lite on the goods was but 51. ;

This was an xenon of trespass, brought by Mr.
Perry, of Bilk ricay, ag-iinst Mr. Browne, fur break-
ing end entering into house., making a
great disturb:nal e, and taking away some goods.—
It appeared by the evidence that the plaintiff, Mr.
Perry, was a hasket-maker, and that a atom in of
the name of Catharine Browne, lodged with him.
She died io May last, and Joseph Markwell, school-
master, made her will, by which it appeared that
she had bequestited her )1 tettieoats, bedstead, and
joint-stool, to Plaintiff's but the Defendant,
Mr. Browne, was determined to have all her per-
sonal effects sit:posed to be worth about ten
pounds, and went with a waggon to take them
away ; in his hurry, he took some shoes b. longing

Downing-street, April 14, 1810,

Extract of a Letter from Vsseount tVellingtou iu the Earl of
Liverpool, dated Vsgea, March as, late.

The Freai h corps, under the command of Mar-
shal Ney, and that under Lotion, and Kellerman's
corps, are in Old Castile, and iu positions on the
'.vane►, with their advanced posts upon the A gueda.
ilte advanced posts of the Banish army, under
Zvi/Mier-General Cranford, are likewise upon the
*ueda, an• hetween that river and the Coa.
The French attacked the post at Barba del Po-
mu, win, h was occupied by tour companies of Use
95th Regiment, under Lieutenant-Colonel Beek-
ou the night of the 19th instant.
litin.ediately opposite Barba del l'aeircas es the
other side of the rivet, is St. Feller*, and between
these two villages the only bridge on the Agueda
below Ciudad Rodertgo; and the recent fall of
rain had tilled the riser, which was no where ford-
able.

The enemy had collected a brigade of infantry
at Si. Felice*, and crossed the bridge with six hun-
dred men after dark ; keeping the remainder on the
other side. These followed the piquet of the 951 II
up from the bridge. and immediately made their
attack; but they sere repulsed with the low; of two
officers and seven men killed, and six prisoners and
thirty &docks.
lam sorry to add, that Lieutenant Mercer, of
the 95th, and three men, were killed, and teu mere
wounded in this affair; which was highly creditable
to Colonel Beckwith, and displayed the gallantry
and discipline of the officers and troops under his
command. The Adjutant, Lieutenant Stewart, dim
tinguished himself.

This is a painting of very great promise, and,
front the powers displayed upon it by the artist, it
may be foretold that he will fisf. to the eminence of
this sublime branch of the art. The figure of An-
drontache is most natural and interesting. The
various conflicting possums which agitate the soul
of the disconsolate ther, bereaved of her last
hopes, aktinely pourbsayed ; not only iu the comm.ll
tenance, bat in the attitude and wid,: expression
of the figure. The position and painting of the
child is also uncommonly fine; and the beautiful
contrast of colouring and form, between I - and
the dark-visaged soldier, minding the cruel order
of Ulysses, adds much to the clfrct of the painting.
The whole of this group of three figures can scarce-
ly be surpaseed; If there is any fault to be found
it must be with Ulysses, in whose rye there is not
that sternness which ought to be expected 111 the
barbarous Creek, who, according to the passage of
Seimea, from which the subject is derived, contd.

to B.lthili to dinner. One o'clock was the time ap-
pointed for starting. A numerous assemblage of
spectators were collected on foot, and in carriages, in
Mortimer-street, cud in Carenclish-sqntre. At half
past one o'duck,•uot any of the members's/I the
clith's carriages appearing, it was supposed that
they would not start. The arrival of Mr. Hawke,
at Mr. Buxton's Wale. informing him of the acci-
dent which Lord Hawke had met with,. threw a
damp on the co:npauy as►embled to view their de.
parture. Expresses were sent. is ev.ry dircetion,

MR. MIST.

Mr. CALCRAFT.—Thusigh the question he had
to agitate was one or great importance, yet, us he
could not expect any opposition to it, he did not
think it necr.sitry to trouble the House at any
length on the occasion. Ile rose to propose the ex-
pulsion of Mr. Hunt, late Treasurer to the Board
of Ordnance. This, he was aware, was a grave
and serious rusestion ; but to thine who recollect d
the igth Ripon, it %stolid nut be ukcersary to say
moth 011 the sal jcrt.

The SPRAK Eithere interfered. and noticed to the
Hon. Gentleman, that one of the Orders of the
Day being fur Mr. Milt's attenihince, it was tit to
inquire, in the first instance, what return there war
to that order ?

The Serjeant having called the M.a.rnger to the
Bar, he WA, ettautilled by the SPICAKSIL It ap-
peared fruit, hi. Hiaiwer4 that he hail upplird at the
Ordoauce.oflit r, where all the information he ob-
tained from Mr. C'rewt•, w3e, that they knew not
where Mr. Hunt was to he f 1, hut sumireed he
was not in England. Hr had not, however, in.
quired where his last residence wail, nor made any
further inquiries among Mr. Hunt's relations or
connections.

Mr. CA LatArT said. he understood from a Mem-
ber of the House. that Mrs. Hunt sits in town. and
had a letter from Mr. Hunt, dated Litton, 7th
March.

The SPEAKER risked. if the Hon. Gent. would
wirer for this bring recorded ?

The CHANCELII.Oii of the EXCIIIQUTR observed,
that the present motion was evidently premature
and suggested the propriety of sending another
summons to Mr. Hoot. before they proceeded any
farther. The Hoare would do well to are, before
they proceeded to the expulsion of a Member, that
all due formal, us well as auhstantial dept, wire
taken. [Jr therefore recommended to the Hon.
Gentleman to postpone his motion till after the
recess, by which time. full inquiry. and a far mere
effectual search might be made, and the House be
enabled to proceed on satisfactory grounds.
Mr. CALCRAIFT concurred en the propriety of this
suggestion. and fixed on the first Thursday after
the holidays for renewing Isis motion.
The SPIAIRS observed, that every thing done
hitherto had been perfectly regula►, and that they
bad only failed in bringing the 'natter to point. from
not having their Order brought home to the mem-
ben to whom it was directed. He suggested that
the Order of the House ought to be renewed. This
being acquiesced its, the matter was interrupted by
