ASSAULT BY A CLF.RGYAIAN.

This cage excited extraordinary interest in a
crowded Court.

The Rev. Thos. Hardwick, eleik, officiating
Curate of St. Mary's parish, Rotherhithe, was
charged with a violent assault upon John Monk.
Mr. TursslGEß, for the prosecution, said that h
was with considerable regret he had to detail the
case which would come under the consideration of
the Court and Jury. lie had hoped, indeed, that
it would not have been publicly presented, on account
of the situation of the defendant as a Minister, but
that the matter might have been compromised out
of Court:—(Here the Rev. defendant, who stood
by his Counsel, shook his head.) Mr. Thessiger
resumed, and said the Rev. Gentleman had, in a
manner he certainly did not expect, expressed his
dissent from the course he had adverted to. The
Learned Counsel then stated that the parish clerk
of St. Mary's had been arrested for debt, when the
prosecutor, Mr. Monk, a highly respectable man,
conducting the business of a tailor; was appointed to
the situation. Subsequently it was discovered by
the Rev, defendant, that.an anonymous letter, im-
pugning the conduct of Mr. Hardwick, had been
sent to the Bishop of Winchester, the Diocesan of
the district. That letter the defendant attributed to
the prosecutor, vito, however, bad made an aill-
dasit denying any knowledge of such The
prose=hor Subseliuently called upon the defendant to
require an explanation of the charge, and to retrieve
his character, when the assault complained of
cotr►mitted.

Mr. BACON (who had only a few minutes previ-
oudy received some brief instructions from the Rev.
defendant) addressed the Jury for the defence in a
very able and ingenious speech, in which he lamented
with his Learned Friend that the cause had been in-
troduced to that Court.

The .lury, after considrrable discussion, returned
•
verdict of Guilty.
•
The Magistrates, haying delilorated some time,
The CAP WAN said, the Court had to express its
sorrow at seeing the defendant in such a situation.
The sentence was, that the defendant pay a fine of
N. to the King.
