three years ago. 111 March last the prisoner preferred a
complaint before a magistrate against the wife of the wit-
ness, bin it was dismissed. Tut day following the!pri-
scoter went to the house of the winless, and knocking at

A number uF witnesses were examined and confirmed

For the defence Abraham Myers, the father of the
priseeutor, swore that he heard the voice of the prisoner,
and went up to the door. Saw the prosecutor open his
door, and strike the prisoner over the head with a large
stick, which he threw down, and then struck him over
the face with his fi.ts. The prisoner was much beaten
in the face, par Mai I.aly over the temple. About a (loaner
of an hour, the prosecutor said he was stabbed. Witness
said, " Why did you not say you was stabbed berore ?
Did not see any blood on his linen. Had heard the pro-
secutor say he would go twenty miles to hang his mule.
The prosecutor once attempted to hang himself: Wit-
ness looked at his son's breast ; there was a wound but no
blood. Could not say whether the wound had been ro-
eently given. There was blood on the back of the shirt
but none on the breast.

Nlr. Justice Parke, in commencing his charge to the
Jury, observed, that viii, was in any view of it a num
melancholy out; they bad seen father arrayed against
son, brother, against bloater, nephew against uncle ; and
whaievt.r conclusion they might feel themselves bound
to conic to, they mint find that one party or the other
had been guilty of deliberate perjury. His Lordship was
proceeding to sum up the evidence, when the Jury inti-
mated that their minds were wade up, and they found
the pi isotier not guilty.

note to her husband, who deposited it in a cash lint
between the mattress and the lied, arid in the evening she
and Mr. Revett went tu chapel, leaving the prisoner at
home. They returned about nine o'clock, and found
a number of persons round the gate, and an alarm of fire
was given. They found the prisoner sitting in the par-
lour, A gentleman MAIM(' Halls, a friend of their's, was
in the house, and engaged in puttines out the fi►e The
prisoner on being asked how the fire originated, said she
did not know, She did not appear to be the least
alarmed, nor did she move from the chair on which she
was sitting. The bedding and furniture were much
burnt—the cash-box was found to have been opened, and
the 201. note was missing. Mr. Revett produced and
shewed the box no her, and said " you must know some.
thing of this." Mr. Revett said he would have every one
in the home searched. The prisoner remained smin;
in the mite place. The note was not found. When
the prisoner Wai about going to another room to Ise
searched, she fainted. The papers in the box were
burnt. There was a sovereign and some silver in in,

she merits of she mare, and Ball said he thought she was
lame, upon which the prisoner said he would convince
him of the contrary, and mounted, as they supposed. for
the purpose of trying her paces. Ile, however, rode
quite away, and dol not return, and whets Warner asked
Ball if he intended to purchase the us ire, he declared he
knew nothing about it, and that he was there by mere
accident. The prisoner was taken about a fortnight at.
terwards, and then it came out that he sold the mare for
30s. whets in a state of extreme intoxication.
The prisoner in his defence said, that %Varner em-

main in this country.—Transported fur merest years.

street, St. Luke's, and on the '3lst of March he was unfor-
tunate enough to have a fire in his house. It took place

MONTIAT, APRIL 22 —Mary Mullins was indicted
for uttering a counterfeit half crown, on the 26:h of
March last, to J. Manning, at the Black Dug public
house, I /tory-lane. She was also indicted fur a similar
offence on the sante day, at the same pla..e.
J. Manning stated that on the 2lith of March the pri-
soner came to the Black-dog about nine o'clock, and
called for some liquor, in payment for which sin; gave
a half-crown and received the difference. The witness
threw the half-crown into the till without clorely ex-
amining it, and in a few minutes afterwards the prisoner
came again and called for a repetition of the dose, and
gave another half•crown.—This conduct excited the
suspicion of Mr. Manning, and after the prisoner had
left the house a second time he inspected the two half-
crowns, when he found they were both coquterfeits.—
However, the prisoner returned a third time, and called
for another quarters). The witness then said, " young
woman, this is the third time you base been here passing
bad and I will detain you." lie immediately
sent for a constable, and had the prisoner taken into
custody.
Appleton, the constable, proved that lie appre-
hended the prisoner.
Thau ry found the prisoner gailty of the single offence,
and the Court sentenced her to be imprisoned for six
months, and to find security for her good behaviour for
six months more.

.....
Several others were convicted of similar offences, and
sentenced to dilkrent periods of itnprisotintent.
Charles .11111t9 Morris was indicted for entering the
dwelling-house of Mr. Bath, who keeps the Coach and
Horses, in Drury-lane, with intent to steal.
'Die prisoner pleaded guilty ; but the Court, before
passing sentence, enquired of Mr. Bath the circumstances
of the case, who stated, that about eight o'clock in the
evening the prisoner, accent)) panied by two other persohs,
came to his house and called for sonic gin. The witness
sture.teci them, and kept a sharp ktok-out, when he
obseived the prisoner make two or three attempts to go
up stairs. Alter some time they left the house and re-
turned again, when the witness !Hissed the prisoner from
his companions, and upon going up stairs into his first
floor, he discovered the prisoner, whom he secured, and
sent for an officer.

The kirisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to three

Ty ESL Ay, Arsit. 23.—William Smith was indicted
fur a riot at Finchley on the 8111 inst. Mr. Hadfield
stated, that on the day mentioned a daughter of his was
married, and, as usual on such occasions, his relatives
and friends, with those of the bridegroom, spent the
day at hie house. Towards the evening the prosecutor's
house was beset by between thirty and forty ruffians,
hearted by the prisoner, with what is termed a band of
rough music. They proceeded to use the most infamous
obscene language, and demanded money before they
would desist or retire. Mr. Hadfield was forced to call
in a flow.street patrul for his protection, who took the
prisoner into custody. Mr. Hadfield concluded his state-
ment, with s tying that to such an extent did the conduct
of the prisoner and his associates prevail with regard to
obscene language, that two or three respectable families
lately left the neighbourhood and houses belonging to
him. The prisoner was found guilty, and was sentenced
to three months imprisonment in the House of Correc-
tion, and to be led on the county allowance.

DeATH EY FIGIITISIGI.—An inquisition was taken
before John Wright Unwin, Esq. oneof the coroners fur
the county of Mi:ldleaex, at the Halifax Arms, King
Edward-streer, Mile End New Town, on view in the
body of William Platt, aged 17, who was killed in a
pitched battle by Henry Snellgrove, a young luau about
the same age.— l'ite first witness examined was Mr. W.
Fordinn, who swore that he was a headborough of the
Hamlet of Mile End New Town. On the morning of
Monday last he was present in the Bow Common fields.
having attended there for the purpose of suppressing a
tight which he imderatood was to take place. Ile saw
the fight from its commencement to its ending. The
combatants wire the deceased and Henry Snellgrove.—
He thiuks they Might upwards of an hour and a half,
during which time he saw many desperate blows mutts-
ally struck. The parties seemed to bin► to have fought
fairly, and there seemed very little difference In their
size or age ; both of them had very severe blows. The
deceased, who lodged at the Halifax Arms, was brought '
home after the battle, and he believes he survived until
Wednesday. lie considers the battle was fought pin-
sown to previous agre.mient, as he had received infor-
mation of it. lie did not know who the seconds or
bottle-holders were. The mob aesembled on the occa-
sion was so great, that witness, as an individual, did nut
consider it sate for him to interfere.—Samuel Desart was
intimately acquainted with Snellgrove; saw him on the
Sunday morning f:rcvious to the fazlit. Snellgrove told
him he was going to fight next day, and said when he
" came into the ring he should not date to strike the
deceased, as he loved him as well as his own brothel."
There hail lweti no previous quarrel ; it was merely a
challenge from putting on the glov.s together. He saw
Snellgrove's two seconds, namely, Thomas Buckmaster
and 11. Dutton, on the Monday evening after the tight,
at which he was not present, but the persons named in
the course of conversation, told hint that they had se-
conded Snellgrove.—George Hatcliffe, of No. 30, King
Eilwanhstreet, is a green-grocer, and was present at part
of the fight. Ile saw two men, named Joseph Salith
and F. Boyd, acting as seconds for the deceased. lie
should know them both again.—Mr. William Green,
of %Vhitechapehroad, surgeon, siw the deceased on
Wednesday mooting, for the first time. He was tutu
in a state of stupor, and died its a few hours after.—
There was no external injury sofficient to cause death.
%Vitnesas consequently opened and examined the held.
lime temporal artery was ruptured on the left side, and a
quantity of extravasated blood and cerium was diffused
over the surface of the brain, which caused his deaths.
These injuries were most probably caused by the heavy
falls he had during the fight.—The coroner having has.
pitulated the evidence, said the case in this unfortunate
transac,ion was most satisfactorily made out. if it did
not amount to wilful murder, it must certainly be man-
slaughter, nut only against the principal, but against the
four seconds, who were all in the eye of the law equally
guilty.—The Jury, without hesitation, found a verdict
of manslaughter azahist H. Snellgrove, the principal,
and against the four seconds, via, Thomas Buckinaster,
Henry Dition, Joseph Solids, anti Francis Boyd.—The
Coroner instantly made out a cou►utitment against the
parties accused, all of whom being in attendance, were
taken into custody by Samuel Dobson, the beadle, who
lodged them in the watch.houee, to be forthwith taken
to Newgate. Snellgrove, who came in a coach f
the hospital, where he had been confined since the fight,
now appeared very much indisposed, and had his head
bound tip with bandaees. It being doubted wheill.r he
was in a fit state to be conveyed to Newgate with the
others, the coroner told the Beadle to have the opinion
of some medical man concerning him, but at all events,
to be cautious that he did not escape.
As Mr. Wareham, jun. of Windmill-street, was re.

violence as to shiver it in pieces. Mr. Wareham, who
was driving, pitched upon his shoulder, and broke his
collar bone; and Mr. Borringdon was taken up for dead.
He was bruised in a shocking manlier, and medical aid
Was procured with all possible haste. The report on
Monday morning was, that he continued in a mate of
stupor, without hopes of recovery.
