Mr. A uut.rtius addressed the Court, mid said,
that * new fact, of which he was not aware, hod
beau disclosed in the Prisoner'. defence, it was the
circumstance of his arrest and subsequent discharge
fur this utf lice.

The COURT consented to have some of the wit-
urio.es called back to inquire into this fact.
the Secretary, was now called back.
lie said he recollected Stephen Epsom having
called Hussey wit of the room of the Odd Fel-
lows on the Saturday utter the murder. to question
him un the business.

Crws•examined.—When the new Odd Fellow was
made, lie was sure the Prisoner was not present, the
making took place at a quarter past eight o'clock
on the Satiuddy evening.
Larkin was wiled up again ; he said, that on
the 11th February he heard Hussey and Hazleton
had absconded from the Tiger'. Herd, be went
there and found his information had been incorrect,
as Hussey was there; and on being asked about
money, he said he had got it by a legacy of between
GO and 70/. which on inquiry proved to be correct.
He received tliib legacy un the Wednesday after the
murder.

Mr. Serjeant LENS then charged the Jury in an
admirable addresa, which lasted for two hours and
twenty miuutes—(we regret that our limits at this
late hour preclude us from giving the charge this
day.)
At twenty minutes before ten o'clock the Jury
consulted upon their verdict, and in about six mi-
nutes, and without withdrawing from the box,
fuund a verdict of Gaiiry.
The Clerk of Arraigns then called on the Pri-
soner in die ustEil form to know if he had any thing
to say why sentence of death should not be passed
upon him.
'The Prisoner, in a faoltering accent, and a pale
and agitated countenance, said, •• My Lord ! my
Lord !"

The Count—" Chvles Hussey, have you any
thing to say ?"
The Prisoner-14 Yee, my Lord. It is most aw-
ful surely for my life to be thus violently taken
away from me— to be suddenly torn front my little
lily relations and friends, fur u crime of
which I sin nut guilty. I know, my Lord, I de-
serve my fate for concealing the property, I feel
I did wrong in taking it; but I am as instoceut of
the guilt of murder as you, my Lord, who sit
there. The Almighty has given me power to
say this. Ile has given toe the power of meet-
ing him ►hotthy with fortitude, where I shill at-
test what he knows to be the truth. I sin pre-
pared for death. I have made my peace with God,
as well a. the small sureties allowed me enabled me
to do. I was long since told, indeed, that I could
not recipe—that I must suffer. I now egoist re-
peat. I sin innocent of the murder—God knows it."
Mr. Serjeant LESS then, in a most solemn and
impressive manner, prutioussced the awful sentence
of death upon the Prisoner, and ordered hitu fur
exert& on Monday next. The Learned Judge
expressed hie deep regret, that the Prisoner should
have uttered the expressions of inancence he fwd
used, after a conviction so clearly suede out, and
implored hint to devote Isis few snort hours to re-
pentance and transition.
The Prisoner, whose demeanour throughout the
trial, was generally attentive soul Collected, became
evidently agitated and disturbed during the Judge's
charge. His comitenanee had a death-like puls-
ates', and the verdict oft he Jury, which he seemed
to expect, hail the effect of snaking him stare
wildly around the Conti.
It was remarkable that dining the evidence of his
brother sod bitter. who were dreadfully twinned,
the Prisoner alone remuintd usimovest—he employ-
rd himself taking mitre, never looked Sitar them

L.IIV INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, 14 N comes•Ws,
FRIDATt JULY 31.

RELIGIOUS TOLERATION.
THE BEDFORD CHARITY.
Sir SsmucL Itommir stated, that this was the
Petition of Joseph Lyon, Solomon LeSiy, and others,
ho were of the Jewish persuasion, and the intent
of it was to hive the question decided, whether
members of the Jewish Church were or were not to
be excluded from founded charities. The Petition
',rayed that Sheba Lyon, the daughter of Mr. Lyon,
one Of the Petitioners, might be allowed to draw
her lot for the fee allowed by the donor of the cha-
rity to poor maidens retailing in the town of Bed-
ford. It appeared that King Edward VI on the
Petition of the Mayor, Corporation, and inhabitants
of the town of Bra,Ord, granted them a free school,
with one mister and an usher. In the eighth year
of Queen Elizabeth, the Mayor and Corporation
were invested with the lands of Sir Thomas I larper,
who bad also given them $ll scho.il-lionse. An Art
of the present King enacted the fallowing provi-
sions, viz.—

" That the Lord Lieutenant of the County, "mil the Mem-
bers of Parliament for the Town and County, with the Mas-
ter and 18 inhabitants of the town, to be circled by the in.
habilitate, should, from and after the passing of the Act, be
the trustees of the charity, and that they slionlil he styled,
Master, Governor, oud Trustees of t►e Charity ; and that
8001. should be 11411 Routed mutually among 40 poor mea-
tless, and the trustees to meet four limes ■.year, and to give
three weeks notice when the day for distribution was to take
place; and that all poor maids who had resitled ten yea,. in
the town, of the age of 10 and not 20, were qualiBed lu be
candidates."

The Act did not say a word about religions quali-
fictitious, so of course it did not exclude any sect,
and was open for persons of every religion that
thought proper to apply. The Act alai specified,
that 7001. per annum was to be expended for poor
buys and girls, who were to be put out as appren-
tices in two calendar month* after Whig paid their
fee by the trustees of the charity, which was to he
go% to each, and the age to entitle them as candi-
dates was from 14 to 15. This latter charity was
what the Petitioners claimed, and prayed of his
Lordship to grant. At Michaelmas, iii the year
1816, Sheba, the daughter of the Petitioner Lyon,
applied, as the Act directed, as u caudidate to draw
her lot for the fee, and she was refused by the M
ter and Governor of the charity, on the ground that
litr father was a Jew ; since which time the Mast-r,
Governor, and 'l'rusteea had entered into a resolu-
tion that no Jew should partake of the benefit of
the charity. The Petitioners complained that this
was an innovation, for formerly the child.eir rf
Jews were admitted to partake of the briscfiis
of the charity; for instance, L-murl Lye'', the
eldest son, and also a daughter of the Petitioner
Lyrist, were admitted into the school of the
amity, and had received the apprentice fee; and
the Petitioner Michael Joseph bad also two sons
who had received the fee ; although those iii-
stances had been stated to the Master, Governor,
and Trustees, they were inexorable, and refused to
admit Sheba Lyon. The Learned Counsel ob-
served, that the case was of the greatest importance,
not only as it related to this charity, but as it dud
to all °diem The Elders of the Jewish Synagogue
in London had, much to their credit, interfered,
and brought the question before his Lordship.
The people of tie Jewish persuasion were not only
respectable for their numbers, but from other cir-
cumstances, which it was not necessary for him to
sorption. If it was possible that his Lordship
would confirm the order of the Trustees, it would
introduce a novelty in the mainigenient of charities
dangerous in the extreme, and would do away with
that which was the boast of this country, religious
toleration, which gave every man liberty to worship
his God according to his conscience. The charity
als► extended to alms-houses, sad a clause in the
trust deed required that the old men and women
admitted into them should attend some place of
worship no Suudsys. This was the only allusion lie
could find that was made to religion ; and how coe!d
it effect the Jews more than any other sect? The
deed did not specify that they must go to the
Church of England, the Catholic Churcb, the
Scot's Church, or those of the numerous classes of
Dissenters, but merely that they dhotild attend a
place of religious worship. He would ask, then,
was not the Jewish Nytiagogne a place of worship?
sod no luau would ►ay it was not, if he was not in-
flueneed by bigotry. The charity elm held out a
reward for good morel conduct. but not a word.
was said us to religious dulies—amt most properly
so. On what [piaci, le the 'rimless had acted in the
adoption of a restilatiou which must brand them
with the epithet of being illiberal, and illiberality ,
of the worse kind, lie could not say. He, however,
rejoiced, that the subject in this country hail the
right of worshiping his Maker as conscience dic-
tated to him, without any person daring to nuke
him afraid. in this enlightened and liberal age, it
was degrading to the tuition to hear such illiberal
and mintauly doettittes as those the Trustees had
("tithed then,selves with. It was true. the Trustees
complained of the increase of Jews Pi the town of
Bettfprd. If they dreaded it, and thought it was
an evil, why did not they apply to the Legielaturo
fur a legislative measure to enlarge the time above
ten years of residence to give the right of claim on ,
the charity—and hot, by their own authority, set
up a system of intolerance rtiolting to all manly
and generous feelings of human nature' Under
three co„.ideeasioes, he had no doubt but his Lord- '
ship would give the relief prayed fur.

the question should he glicided HU, r a suiritin

us to the form it was brought Gil waid iu, llor as to
the jurisdiction of the Court. The pirating was
one of general importance. which would turn on
the meaning of the luith(ler. Ti.- charity had hot
been extended to any class of pistmiiis that weir not
originally benefited; anti if the Jews, in the d st
instance, could grit be militated, there was nothing
in the Act of Pali:uncut that would entitle titan.

quiry be made whether a parson of the Jeaisli per-
suasion was ever elected a trustee of the charity,
and whether a person of that I,er-ti .sion tvtr
voted for a trustee? I wish also to lit ow, %hailer
Jews were ever educated iri the grammar and ant-
mg school. It is certainly a new cafe-, wed one of
great importance, and ought to be settled at once.
It may be necessary to know whether the 't maids
are now provided tor. and whether Je.v boy. and
girls were ever nourished and t.,lc,n care of in tie
hospital ; whether Jew's were ever apprenticed by
the charity, and when out of their apprenticeship,-
recriird the benefaction; and whether old Jew meta
and women ever partook of the surplus of ilia
charity. Let those inquiries be in:ide, and when
you have got the letters patent. you may bring on
the case again. It Is so far entered low, 1 will hear
