Mr. Otenham, he would prove that Mr. Oxenhatn
had not been nut of his office for a lung time pre-
swiss to, nor for a considerable time after, the pe-
riod when the young lady states slw met him on the
Saturday. He would produce the affilavits of right

to those witnesses, lie hail now fourteen others to
prove, that this young Lady, though she 'Arnica
the statrosorost, was really at the christetsiog. He
could now prove that she borrowed • stress for the
occasion. While she was at Holway Farm, she
tlrrsgryl herself in a stile almost approaching to rots-
and, wishing to appear ohne gritted when
going to the christening, she borrowed a gown
twin Mrs. Nlivlrsine, and a spencer from one of
the 1.-smile 1).-fetorlaills. She was see" gong to,

stem's. he had, however, drawn up inatructions for
Pit ffillAV it, ill his own 11111111.Wrili1114. declaring that
Mesa fllrissi was present at the christening.
The COURT desired that that part of the last-
inentiouril affidavit, which related to the Clergy-
insirtictious, should be omitted, as it was an
attempt to get that indirect/A, which could hot be
loocured directly. The affidavit, if there were
other matters comprised in it, could he re formed.
Mr. SCABLETT meant now to proceed to that
Taut of die case respecting Miss Glenn'', familiarity
with James Bowditch. He had affitlavito, first with
respect to what posited in Mrs. BOWthiCll%. faintly,
awl next with reference to what occurred between
the i9;11 and 31st of September, the day when the
lopenient took place. Ttcenty different witnesses
spoke to various ramiliaritie,—aml, tf those who
made these affidavits were not perjured, this young
woman must certainly have sworn falsely. It ap-
peared that they walked out, almost laily, arm isi
num. She boasted of her acquaintance with James
llowditch—and said, that in her country, women
as young as she were married, and she wondered why
they atatti so long in England. She declared that she
would lw a farmer's wife, and that she would have
James Bowditch. The affidavits stated further,
that the connexton commenced with het—that she
sought it. No less than thirty-eight witnesses swore
us to what passed after she returned to her Uncle's
house. They deose•ed that they knew her person,
they had metal her leave her uncle's house,
hy 14.%ign5!.1011--E4llll that she was frequently
walk-
in_ in the lields with James Bowditch. That they
went to town together. That she called on Wil-
Bowditch. as well us ou Mrs. Mulrmilie, to
whom she wrote a letter from William Ilowditch's
lonise. lit the course of the trial, a person of the
name of Sarah Northam deposed, that she had oiler
been desired to look at Miss Glenn and James
Buwditch walking together—but that, when she
looked 111 the female's face, she found it was not
Miss Gitlin. hence it was inferred that there was
a conspiracy to cause another young WOlllllll to per-
sonnies .hiss Glenn, in order to give currency to the
report of an intimacy bring kept np between James
llowslitch atoll the young Lady. Now he haul the af-
tota%ita of titter itetawn wl:o were present a lieu
the 'tattles were pointed ant to Sarah Northam.
Those individuals swore, that Nliss (Ikon anti
.lamas Bowditch were absolutely walking toge-
ther at the time, and that Sarah Northam
then admitted the fact to he so, though she
had since altered her test tinnily. t,
Miss Gls mei account was contradicted by
fffly witnesses. If they did lint speak the truth,
iheit he had been the meatus (which lie believed
would turn out not to be casts) of introducitir, to
the Court, the largest volume of perjury that ever
disgtaced its tiles. iVith respect to the risme, he
cssocrived it to be objecti able. It was laid in the
court,. ot. Dorset. whereas the conspiracy was said
to have been formed iii the county of Somerset--
tool mail of the persons on the floor had toyer
appeared in the county of Dorset at all. All that
i-lroted to Dorset was, that Mr. Paul, who had
misornal a daughter of Mrs. Bowditch, received his
oilier-iu-law and this young woman into his house,
scuttle at ishortilord, in the county of Dorset, he'
oust ;flow:log any thing of a conspiracy—and
flowslitch positively swears, that, *lien he
fatten' Miss Glenn was not of age, he prevented the
in closes.. The Learned Counsel Said, lie had alll-
sLvits of what took place at 3lrs Paul's house. Mr.
Templer, a clergyman, was present, and declares
that Ali.s (ileum slid not apptar to be wider any

1...m0rd Counsel again conteuded, that the remise
