BELL 2'. THOMAS.

This. was an action of trespass, for breaking and.
entering a hoUse and taking away a key. The houe
is situated at Sloane-street, Chelsea; and it was oc-.
cupied by a Mrs. Jackson, whO gave up the p6sses-
sion to 'the Plaintiff. The 'Defendant rented the
ground 'floor, and wishing to get-possessiog of the
house instead of the Plaintiff; he sent for the. key,
on pretence of 'removing some of Mrs. Jackson s
goads which 1)-„mained on the premises. , The Plain-
tiff; in, compliance with the request; gave up the
key,-ape the Defendant
„afterwards refifsed to return
it, and kept the Plaintiff out of possession.
Mr. Serjeant ',Errs, for the Pefendant, contended,
that detaining .the' key, after it had'been sent by 'the
Plaintiff; was'not a trespass; he also ohjeded to the
form of the declaration, which did not describe the
parish where the trespass Was committed, but merely
stated the Parish of Chelsea, when it ought to hate
been, St. Luke, Chelsea.
Sir JAMES MANSFIELD considered the informality of the pleadings contrary to the general practice, and
the Plaintiff was nonsuited.

The public attention has been remarkably excited
at Liverpool during :the last two or three days, by a
circumstance of a very peculiar nature. The windows
of two houses in John-street, near the end jf
thew-street, have been repeatedly broken by thro.
ing in of large pieces of brick or Stone from withou .
This strange species of annoyance continues at •in-
terVals'both in the day and night time; and'th6ugh
a great number of persons have employed erery ex-
ertion to discover the offender, or the quarter from whence the stones are thrown, their efforts have not
yet been.successful. The stonesire not seen till they
enter the window, and they are so exedly ai wed, t hat
every stone is sure to demolish a pane. The af-
fair
has made so much noise, that it has'at laqsk!x-
cited the attention of the polic‘• and there,is
no
doubt but the mystery will sews be developed.

The following melancholy circumstance occurred
.on-Friday last, at Clayton, near Brighton. A lad,
named Penfold,' being in the, upper tioor.of the mill
belonging to that place, performing his Ordinary bti=
siness, the cogs of the Wheel caught his round frock,
by' Which accident 'he was, in an -instant, dragged
into the machinery, and crushed to death. In ad-
dition to the Many admonitions we have from time
to-tiiiie given, on the imprudence of wearing round
frocks in Mills, we now earnestly recommend to ail
millers, and those employed under them, the adop-
tion of a dress more compaet and dose, and leis lia-
ble to produde .such fatal and distressing accidents.
