Mr. Johtic proved the note to bare been marked by the Iwt
witness, and that a memorandffin on the hack was written
by air. Swantr.—At appealed that Mr. Swann had accepted
a note in favour of Glazon, and at the same time had taken
a promissory tints from Jenkins as a security for the pay-

meat, with interest.)
Peter Jenkins continued : I never heard of the bill till a
little before the last election. Mr.Swann same op its Green-
lane to me, and said, if you will teN me your mind I Will tell
you mine ; I asked him what his mind was, and he said he
would give up the note of hand, give a onne-pound note to
help to pay the poor rates, and a handsome present; and if
was its di stress in the winter he would give me three or four
rewinds; I was to give my vote fur it; I told hjes I.mn,t have

cs'elssels; he tore-the paper in two; gave rue one, part, arid
threw the rest into the street ; he gave me the part that had
my signment; I thought it was not the right paper, and took
it to a friend ; when I came back I told hint he had given* ore
the wrong paper; Mr. Swann told tuc, " I might go and be
coarsen ;" 1 saw him two other days after, and he said he did
riot cure if I voted against him : I told him, if tie pleased to
return one the note of hand, he should have the money ; I
got the note
,of hand the day before the election from Mr.
John Goodeave: he did not give it to hie the first time I saw
bins, but ire showed rue the note; I saw him half an hour af-
terwards, but he did nod give it then; lir gave/it about sevens
o'clock in the' evelsing, at his own hotwe, where he ordered
me to creme; I asked Cirstoleavc foe the one-potsud note and

Peter destkitas, the youttgo, spoke nearly to the same facts
as the last witness, but with SOILIC slight variation a, to the
expression sited by "dr. Swann.

BLEWSTT versus CORNISH.

The plaintiff in this case was a met.chatit at Ma.
ration, in this county, and also an Alderman in
that atecient though.now unrepresented borough.
The defendant was likewise a merchant there, and
held an e►;telly dignified post in the Corporation.
It arl'e 'that, disputes had 4i4

•Ttilc.rt'of (*be tvTiic‘b e're-Cirrietrl
with a great degree of hostility; about eight years
ago, the plaintiff presided over the lowa as Mayor,
and in his anxiety to foltil the duties of his high.
office, be had attacked corruption by the root, by
seitinr, or destroying every weight and every mea-
'sore which was below the standard. As several
of the Aldermen chanced to be affected by this
scrutiny, it may be naturally supposed that the
cordial friendship which had 'subsisted, if any had,
dwindled away at once, and the plaintiff fonnd
himself with tile other members of the COrpora•-
tion in this sitnation ; to nse the words of one of
the Worthy Aldermen of Marazion, " they al-
ways differed in opinion with Mr. Blewett, and
when they met bins they never spoke to him,"
though the same witness expressed that he him-
self was " neither on particular good terms nor on
particular bad teflus." Among the high offices
which the Plain4iff had served, was that of Sur-
veyor of the !loads, and upon a discussion relat-
ing to the town accounts, the defendant, pointing
to the plaintiff, said, "1 know no one so likely to
cheat as that fellow; lie owes the town 141.; he
has cheated the 'town of thiit stun."

These words were held by the -Learned Judge
not to be actionable in the way they were stated
in the declaration ; and.therwere, besides, , ex•
plumed by some one, saying, that a btlanee of
three pounds was owing to the plaintiff. On
anotht.'r gecasion, when the plaintiff- hdd been
'dying' nut. plans of reform, the defendant said,
44 it will take twelve months to do that, and I am
sure he (the plaintiff) will not last an long."—
Two of the persons present conceived that the al-
lumiou was to the character and credit of Alm plain-
tiff ; but four others who were likewise present,
bad no recollection of such words, but sail, that
some such wotds had passed in felerenee to a sub-
,jest totally different. These four gentlemen were
the same that had their weights anti wr.asore
found-not to he strictly Correct. At another time,
in a. conversation psi h a person of the tiatue of
ilichatds, with whom the plaintiff wis in the
habit of transacting bu)iness, t 1 c ihtenuint said,
" know more of his circunt,l:l;iccs than you do,
and 1 ant sure he %Nil' not stand a,twelventooth"
At another time, when there was acargo of salt
belonging to the plaintiff, ;he delendailLiio(e'd',
•" whose Salt is that r. he Was told it ur.s th't
plaintiff's, and he said, '' hii property is it ! hoW
will he pay for it ?" There was a count in the:

Mr.‘Citnonsit and Nfr. Mut.Atm conducted the
plaintitPs ;case; and Air. NOLLAN and Mr. RY-
LAND the defendant's'.

At appeared in evidence, that the plaintiff had
formerly been a gentleman's servant, and, af't•r
being two years ont of place, he was hired by
the' defendant, by whom be was employed for
about= 13 weeka, During bis continuance in the
service, the defendant had occasion to prosecute
a felon, named at the Old Bailey, and on
that Occasion the plaintiff attended as a witness ;
and that Court having allowed the expences of the
prOtrecution, a sum of 3/. 15s. was awarded by
the Clerk-of Indictments to .the ra bich
was received by the defendant, who paid the plain-
tiff 21:-on aecitunt. 'For the balance and the wages
due to him the present action was brought.

The defence set up to the claim of Wages was,
that ,the defendant had taken the plaintiff into his
employment merely (rota motives of charity and
benevolence, without .any. agreement for wages.
'Proof, however, was wilco that the plain►iff had.
received 71. oft - account, a letter was put ii►,:

Me. GURNEY was heard in reply, and
The Learned JUDGe having sun►tned up the case

claim was well established, and they gave him a
