DEDICATORY STANZAS.

(M AI SIR .10140 POIVERTOX, A ROMMICI.)
Men last we parted, Lady, 'twits in team;
Thy cheek was dimmed with sorrow's trickling dew,
And from my heart the grief of many years,
Hoarded 'till nigh forgotten, burst anew.
Sad offerings to love and memory true;
Shall ever memory faint, or love be cold?
Ah, no! that cheek may lose its breathing hue,
And those dear eyes their living beams withhold,
But love shall still endure, with faith unknown, untold.

Accept the tribute that to thee I bring,
(It is the firit, and it will be the last,)
The leisure fruit of fancy's wandering
Rut fancy rules no more—her sway is past,
And into other paths my course is rot ;
Me now no more shall fiction's dreams beguile;
Their hues like fading rainbows vanish fast;
My feet shall tread in ways of drearier toil,
And fiction hide her wreath, and poesy her smile.

Yet,. if to me a loftier lyre were given,

Thy name in accents love should melte divine,
And round thy beauteous brows a band enwreath,

LEICESTER, WIDNtSDAY, JULY 19.

mostly undefended, and all wholly destitute of interest.

THURSDAY, JULY 20.
The Chief Baron presided to-day in the' Civil Court,
and before one o'clock the carries were quite disposed of.
So meagre a Leicester Assizes, it is said, the most ancient
practitioner here never remembers.

CROWN
The Lord Chief Justice sat in the Crown Court.
John Shipley, alias James Shipley, alias James Elliott,
was given in charge to the Jury upon an indictment,
charging that he had feloniously stolen► a gray horse, the
property of Thomas Stanley Nedham.
In his defence, the prisoner said he had changed another
horse for the one now claimed by the prosecutor.
A. number of very respectable witnesses bore testimony
to the excellence of his previous character.
The Chief Justice charged the Jury, and they found
the prisoner Guilty; but, on account of his good Charac-
ter, recommended him to mercy, and in this appeal to his
Lordship's compassionate clemency the prosecutor also
joined.

The prisoner was removed from the bar in a state of
extreme agitation.

value Is. 6d., the property of her mistress, a furmer's wife
at Bradninc

The prisoner, a very handsome and modest-looking girl,
declared that she took the shift in a mistake. The Jury
believed and acquitted her. It appeared that the poor girl
had been kept in custody on this charge ever since the
29th of May ; although (in answer to a question from the
Learned Judge) it was admitted that a Sessions had in-
tervened at which she might have been tried.

SHREWSBURY, TRULSDAY, J,►ti 20.

nesses, who endeavoured to show that the money had
been returned by the Excise-officer, and that the prose-
cution was the malicious act of some angry neighbours;
but the Jury interrupted the Judge in summing up, and
' pronounced a verdict of Guilty.

PIGOT, CLICRIC,

Mr. Baron Darrow was from morning till evening en-
gaged
gaged in hearing a tithe cause, in. which the Rev.
Dryden Pigot, clerk, rector of the parish of Edgemond,
was plaintiff, and the defendant a farmer in his neighbour-
hood. it was an action to recover penalties for a failure
in the mode of setting' out the rectorial tithes, and the
question turned upon the local usage, whether the rector
was to have his hay in its green and grassy state, in the
10th stack, or to have the 11th stack of perfect hay.
The. Jury found a verdict of one penalty (405.) for the
plaintiff, subject however to a point of law, which is re-
served for the superior courts. _ . .

Both Judges will to-morrow proceed conjointly with the
civil business, which is unusually heavy, and expected to
last till the Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. The
Attorney-General is brought down special fora long cause,
involving the legitimacy of .the possessors or claimants of
considerable property, which will be tried to-morrow, it'
time permits.

YORK, THURSDAY, JULY 20.
THE 01.1 Kr OF OZVONSIIIRX t. MUG; (TYRA.

Mr. Tindal opened the pleadings. This was an action
of trespass. The declaration stated, that the defendant
had broke and entered the free chase and free warren of
the plaintiff, and had killed the game of the said free war-
ren, to wit, hares, conies, pheasants, and partridges. The
defendant pleaded the general issue.
Mr. Justice Park left it to the Jury to say whether
they were satisfied, from the evidence they had heard, that
the plaintiff's ancestors had possessed any right of free
warren over the land in question; and if so, whether that
right had been uninterruptedly exercised as still to con
time in existence. If they Were of opinion in the affir-
mative on both these questions, they would find for the
plaintiff; if not, they would give a verdict for the defend-
ant. If they returned their verdict for the plaintiff, the
damages need be no more than nominal, as the right only
was in Inestion.
'The dury. having deliberated for a very considerable
time, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages one
farthing.
