COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
George O'Malley Irwin, Esq., barrister of six years
standing, was tried for uttering a forged letter purporting
to he the resignation of Robert Johnson, Esq., assistant
barrister for Mayo, and that he did so with the intention of
deceiving the Lord Lieutenant, of defrauding Mr, Johnson
of his situation, and Mr. Irwin's procuring the situation for
himselfi

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated the case for the prose-
cution, and after remarking upon the imporrant nature of
the duties to be discharged by the assistant barristers, and
especially their administering justice to the poor, he entered
into a full and particular statement of the facts of the ease,
which was afterwards proved, and the inference from which
he said must be to bear out the imputations thrown upon
traverser's conduct in the indictment.
Mr. Lvi.-.:OIsiNELL addressed the jury for the traverser at
length.

The Jury found a verdict of Guilty.
The case excited considerable interest from its novelty
and the respectability of the parties,

The following extraordinary circumstance is given,
on the authority of Mr. Knapp, in " The Journal of a
Naturalist :"—A drover, a few evenings ago, laid himself
down upon the platform of a lime-kiln, placing his feet, which
were benumbed with cold, upon a heap of stones newly put on
to burn through the night. Sleep overcame him in this
situation, the fire gradually rising and increasing, until it
ignited the stones upon which his feet were placed. Lulled
by the warmth, he still slept ; and though the fire increased
until it burned one foot and part of the leg above the ancle
entirely off; consuming that part so effectually that no frag-
ment of it was ever discovered, the wretched being slept on !
and in this state was found by the kiln-man in the morning.
Insensible to any pain, and ignorant of hie misfortune, he
attempted to rise and pursue his journey ; but missing his
shoe, requested to have it found ; and when he was raised,
putting his burnt limb to the ground to support his body, the
extremity of his leg bone crumbled into fragments, having
been calcined into lime. Still, however, he expressed no
sense of pain. The poor fellow survived his misfortune in the
hospital about eight days ; but the fire having extended to the
other parts of his body, recovery was hopeless.
We are authorized to publish the following reply
of the Bishop of Exeter to the Archdeacon and clergy of
Barnstaple:—

" Exeter, Jan. 29, 1835.
" Dear Mr. Archdeacon—The address which you have con-
veyed to me from the clergy of your archdeacary gives me
the gratifying assurance that one sentiment of ardent attach-
ment to the best interests of our venerable Church animates
every portion of this great diocese. If from other bodies of
my clergy I have received the expression of similar sentiments
at an earlier period, it is not, I well know, because those sen-
timents are felt less strongly by the clergy of the archdea,
conry of Barnstaple.
" This cordial unanimity (for such it almost literally has
shown itself to be) in a diocese which numbers more than 800
clergy may, I should hope, be regarded as a fair criterion of
the general sentiments of our brethren throughout England.
" The Bishops, therefore, in contributing, as I am confident
that they will, their best endeavours to forward any equitable
measure which shall be devised for settling permanently all
questions respecting the temporal concerns of the Church, and
to accomplish such reforms as shall be found expedient for the
advancement of our infinitely higher objects—the spiritual in-
terests of the people committed to our care—will have the
satisfaction of knowing that they are in full accordance with
the j44g,T.01 04 the feelings of the clergy at large.
q May it please Ood to bless those Plnleavours, and to make
them effectual to the great ends to which they are directed,
I am, dear Mr. Archdeacon, your affectionate friend and
brother, " H. EXETER.
" The Venerable the Archdeacon of Barnstaple."
