,aSpecia.l Jury. The, trial,lasted for se_.
veral hours, and untilafter midnight. The Jury
not being likely to agree, an application was made
that a Juror should be withdrawn by consent : but
the Judge appeared to be of opinion that he could
not yield to such an application without the consent
'of the AttorneY.Gerieral ; the Jury soon after
found the following verdict :—" We find that N.
C. Hussey is guilty, but are of opinion that he re-
. ceived great provocation."—This verdiel the Court,
after some consideration, received—observing, that
,the issue being distinftly found, the additional word's
could work no harm, but might be either rejected as
superfluous by the Court of King's Bench, or might.
have an influence in regulating_ the quantum of pu.

BRIGHTON, AUG. 22.

Tat absence of the PRINCE giVes a dulness to
this place, scarcely to be described. The gloom of
the Pavilion is generally extended to the most dist-
ant limits of the Steyne ; nor are the rides, and other
places of fashionable resort, less depressed and cheer.
less on such a regretted occasion. ' Let those who
may possess an opinion that 'Brighton is not en.
tirely indebted for its celebrity to the favours and
presence of Royalty, visit the town in the absence
of its illustrious Benefador, and they will he con.
vinced of the contrary. It is not the excellence of
accommodations, the salubrity of situation, or the
diversified amusements of the place, though these are
essentials not to be dispensed with, and which other
marine resorts possess, that will render it promi-
nent in fashionable notice, unless the blessing of
superior patronage add force to the attraction, and
charm the rays of rank and beauty to a locus. The

Ltith, August 9, 184.

A man named Moses 11, has been committed
for trial to Nottingham ga .1, for forging eighteen
Bills of Exchange on Messrs. Wright, bankers, ,of
that town.

Last Sunday morning, between three and four
o'clock, the inhabitants of Lostwitbiel were oarmed
by the breaking out of a lire in the skirts of that
town, which, notwithstanding every exertion to
suppreis it, destroyed four small houses before it
was got under. The damage is stated at about
three or four hundred pounds, and the Gentlemen
of the town have entered into a subscription for
the relief of the sufferers.

Wednesday se'nnight. a,fire 'broke out at Mr,
tallow-chandler, at Foren,. near Chard,
which iurnt the whole building, with a quantity
of tallow and candles. The' house was insured,, but
none of the stock or goods.
The little village of Hail, near. Chatham, has
seriously felt the effrets of the storm on Sunday
se'nnight, where the trees of an orchard of about

two acres, are levelled with the ground ; several
elm trees of considerable magnitude are broken
asunder, and disperied by the force of the wind to a
great distance from their jitumps ; the whole fram.
ing of a well, roofs of houses and barns have been ,
also removed in various direeiions ; and' what is
remarkable, the whole of the damages are confined
in a very low valley. .
A melancholy accident happened on Tuesday .
seinnight, at Carnanton, in Cornwall, the seat of
J. 0. Willyams„Esq. As j.)lin Harvey, labourer,
of St. Columb, was carelessly putting a sheaf bind
into the threshng machine, his hand caught be.
tween , the rollers, which drew Isis arm up to the,
shoulder, and crushed it in 4 shocking 'manner,
which occasioned his:death in a few hours. He was
an intustrious, sober and honest man, and has left a
vile and several small children,

A field Of oats. was cut down on Tuesday se'n.
night, in
,Stormont, Perthshire.. Where the ground
was sheltered the crop was abundant; bur part of
the crop •was •much exposed, and suffered by the
spring frosts. The history of this crop is somewhat
novel : the field was sown in _spring,. 1803, with
potatoe oars, and about the tenth return reaped,
On the ground being soon thereafter ploughed, it
appeared there had been a considerable shake—the

breer appeared promising ; it was allowed to remain
as it arose from the furrow until Tuesday se'nnight.
The roots on the exposed part of the field (about a
kbird) were very thin, but_ a great number of stalks
pushed from the same root, and from the rout,dness
of the grain, and numbers on the stalks, the crop
promises to be more abundani than last season.-7
On counting thtee stalks, there were 201 on one of
them, 214. on another, and 24.0 on the third, with.
nut including the bosom grain. This experiment
may mirit tha attention of the speculative farmer,
and in the end be of use to the radical. One fad
is ascertained, the potatne oats ' will survive the
winter, at no great distance from the Grampian
Hills.

'fiat; following melancholy and well attested case
of this terrible malady; while it must necessarily
increase the dread of it, should also stimulate to an
,uninterrupted and long continued application of the
usual remedies, as, it clearly shews that the poison
may remain dormant for a considerably longer pc.•
riod than is generally supposed.'

TO GILBERT GRIERsON, ESQ, SENIOR MAGI.

STRATE OF LEITH.

" SIR,

" As you have thought it your duty to call upon
me fur an authenticated account of the melancholy
instance of Canine Madness in Thomas Mason, por.

ter, Giles.street, that it may serve as a•caution to
othersond a 'motive to particular vigilance in fu.
tote, I send you the following Note:

" Upon the 9th December last. in passing through
Quality-street, he was called to assist in killing, a
mad dog. He seized the dog by the throat ; it bit
his hand nearly through, betwixt the hones of the
thumb and forefinger, and retained the hold until it
was stabbed.

" On Thursday last the symptoms of this ter-
rible disease commenced with pain anti numbness of
the arms and hand bit, and ;palms in the neck and
chest. On Friday the horror of water became the
must striking symptoni of the disease, and. was
Marked in the most unequivocal manlier, for even
the word water threw him into violent convulsion
and alarm. The disease now,to,k its most dreadful
form : but the description of these symptoms here
can have no useful purpose. On Tuesday he was
exhausted and died. I may farther remark to you,
that all uneasiness and alarm for the consequences.
of the bite had long ceased with this poor man, and
imagination **thing to do with. the disease.
" If any thing farther than the charaneristic
symptoms were necessary to prove the existence of

this disease, and make the most sceptical gladly ac.
quiesce in every measure of .precaution, that proof
might be found in the. appearances on disseaion,—
The body was very minutely examined by Mr.
Charles Bel 4 who is accustomed to contruul every
feeling 0:- disgust or apprehension where o.e-into.
rests of humanity-may he in the event benefited by
such investigations. The throat, stomach, and
brain were very much diseased. .
4' have the Himour to he, Sir,
44 Your most obedient Servant,
J. Cattv NE, jun. M. D."

with two brass guns, eight pounders; one mounted

of which were seamen, the others soldiers. Her

with a cry of" File I" The night was very dark,
by the assistance of the lamps, volumes 31

nearly burnt to ashes, and herself dreadfully injure`'
to be borne from the-house by several Gentlemen',
among whom were Capt. SPROULE, to the house °I
a Lady,"bslt a few doors distant. The alarms .we
find, was occasioned by the skirts of her Laclq
ship's dress having unfortunately caught the OM,'

pence, and Time, required to accomplish this splendid and
matchless Edition, are ohvious and well -known. The Num-
ber of Copies to b: disposed of are comparatively few. The

COALITION.

•WE have heard rumours for several days past, of
a Junaion bet:ween Lord GRENVILLE, Mr. WIND.
HAM) and Mr. Fox. We believe there is no.doubt
of such an Union fiaving been formed. We do not
pretend to state at, tall. accurately the grounds of
such a Junction,' but' the first object, of course, is
-
to turn out the present Administration. We have
no difficulty in 'asserting that we. think so' weak an
Administration as the present is, at, this moment
a very serious ievil to the Country. We shall
shortly state our opinion more fully upon the whole
of this subject.

THk KING V. BARNET.

Thii,vona •Prosecution involving some question
of accounts and Correspondence between Lady
Granard, the Margravine of Anspach, and the De-
fendant, which had been referred.to the' Master of
the Crown Office. The Dekmlant, when in con.
finement, had made an Affidavit, the last paragraph
of which was in the nature of an undertaking, that
he would never disclose the Correspondence between
these Ladies; &c.
Mr. BURROUGHS said, that this Affidavit Ought
to be ta,ken.off the file, upon the Defendant making
another in the same Words, omitting the last ten.
fence, , •

Lord ELLINWOROUGH said, the last sentence
was certainly extrajudicial, nor should it have been
made use Of, if the Defendant had objected to it
when he was brought before his Lordship to be die.
charged,. but nothing was said on that 'subjetl:
The Master reported, that he 'Was satisfied with
the accounts of this Gentleman, except one item' of
131. 6i. and that only required an explanation, that
the bearer of a Note from Lady Granard had re.
ceived, a Cheek upon the Defendant's Banker fur
her use:

The Court gave leave to make that explanation
to.moreow.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 7.1

RVAN U. WIRIONT.

Mr. Serje,ont BEST moved fur a Rule to show
cause why the plea of the Defendant in this case
shoubl not be allowed to be amended, undet 'the fol.
lowing 'circumstances. A demand being made by
the Plaintiff upon the Defendant for a certain sum of
moneY, and notice of trial given, the, Defendant op.
plied to the Plaintiff for a bill of particulars, in order
to enable him to settle the roper plea. This, how.
ever, li4d not been sent in time, and the conse.
gueilei was; the Defendant was reduced to the ne.
cessity of pleading the general issue only.. Upon
exanfining the Plaintiff's bill, he found' that he had a
set off which would nearly cover • the .demand, and
thetifoie-OpPlied to the Court for leave to amend hit
plea, and plead the general issue, the set off, and
the Westminster Court of Conscience. As the De.
fendant had been obliged to put in a wrong plea by
the negligence of the Plaintiff, he trusted the Court
would give him an opportunity :to alter
granted. •

At a very early hour on Wednesday morning a
man was discovered -to-have cut his throat, with a
small knife, at his lodgings, the White Horse, in
Swallow-street. He proves to be a coachman, and
was' formerly groom 'to His Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales. A man who slept in the same
room was disturbed by an uncommon noise, and
alarmed the house, Medical assistance was ought
after ii, ,all direCtions. Mt. Kerrison was the only
Surgeon that arrived ; and, after sewing np the
wound, which appeared very large and dangerous,
attended him to Middlesex hospital. The man
was much relieved before he got viere, and some
hopes are entertained Sl his recovery. No cause at
present is assigned for his fatal resolution report

THE LINO V. MANSELL PHILLIPES, ESQ.

Mr. GARRAW moved for a Rule to enter this
Verdid according to thefinding of the Jury, which
he understood to be necessary in this case. The
Jury having found the Defendant " Not Guilty of
sending the Prosecutor a 'Challenge ; but guilty of
sending a:Letter provoking the Prosecutor to send
him,- the Defendant, a Challenge,"
Lord FAiEttuououctl.—" There is one Count
in the Information applicable to that at —the Jury
have found Mm guilty of 47—they have found their
v,erdicl in words of their own, but they have found
the substance of that Count, and, therefore' I think
they have found him guilty of that Count, so that
the verdict may he entered without any formal Rule.
Let them move to set it aside if they think it is not
right."

THE MO: JOSEPH REATH.

Mr.' MIL.Li fait', that ti.is was an Attachment
for not delivering a Court Roll; he apprehended the
Defendant had complied, as he had heard nothing
on behalf of the Prosecution.

LOtti ELLENUIROUGH will, that as the Public
had, no particular interest in this matter, it, might
be atrock out—which was accordingly done.
