CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.:

OLD COURP.

Adam Uriah Bryant and John Nind were indicted for kill-
ing and slaying Wm. Young.
Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Espinnasse conducted the prosecu-
tion, and Mr. ClarkFon and Mr. Phillips defended the prisoners.
It appeared that the prisoners were driving a gig through
the Hackney-road on the 22d of June last, and the deceased,
with other boys, was playing. As the gig came up the de-
ceased ran across the road to go home. The gig was going
at a moderate rate and was behind a carrier's cart. The de-
ceaied ran between the cart and the gig, and the horse in the
gig struck him with his knee, by which he was knocked down
and, was conveyed insensible to a surgeon, and it was discovered
that he had received a fracture of the skull. There were three
perSCl?g in the gig, but the person, who it was supposed by the
witnesses to ?iaye been. driving, was not apprehended. The
prisoners were both ntoxicated, but the other person was not.
Mr. CLARKSON having addressed the Jury,
The Learned JUDGE suminNi up, stating that it was for the
Jury to say whether the death of the boy was occasioned by
the negligence and carelessness of the prlsner. There was no
evidence to show that either of them was dri.:;ng.
The Jury, after a short consultation, returnee' t. verdict of
Not Guilty.
Mr. Uvanxsox said that the prisoners had paid all the 47..
penses of attendance on the deceased, and also the expenses c f
the funeral, _ _ _ .

And Mr. Baron A LDERSON ordered the prisoners to be im-
mediately discharged.

GREAT BATTLE. •—••• As the steward on
Wooden Onstead, Roxburghshire, was employed a. few
clays ago, in a turnip-field belonging to Captain Scott,
he was fiercely attacked by no less than seven 'ferocious
weazels.:. They leaped upon his person, and attempted
to' get at his faco and throat, but, after a conflict which
lasted several minutes, the man suceeNled not only in re-
Oiling, .but in killing the whole number. Had the vie-
tiju
in qtis cage been a-girl, or even a grown-up woman,
it is imliossible to say what the consequences might have
