I'ltON-'INCIAL JOURNALS.

(Front The.Shryield Mercury of the i inst.). ;

We have 'often expressed our opinion that 'the
present agitated state of various parts of the coun-
try, particularly of tl►e Northern lsistricts, arises
ghnost solely from ►he distressed and pinched con 7
dition of the labouring poor; and not horn any

revolutionary disposition eNciting them agains't the
insiitutiolls of their fathers. It is the goadings
of prunry and want, more than theftnitis decla-
mations of Mt. Hunt, or the whining cant of Mr.
Harrison, tha,t collect such crOwds in tuinultuons
and illegal assemblies, and, originate the violent
qt)d ridiculous resolittions that are passed in them:•
TI. is appears tO he the true hrigiii.of the mischief ;
bore I,rima milli lobes ; '81)d it would be both int-
p'"Olitie and d'anH!! rus to stiffer one source of the
evil to: tt•gross all our attention and vigilance,
to the neglect of this the principal and primary

one. .
Many indirect causes, have been assigned for
the present distressed condition of the treat neass
,of our labouring population. The heavy taxation
which all clasSes ate obliged to pay to the go-
vet ittnent.--7the operation of the Poor Laws, fos-
tering the vety evil '!ley were meant to alleviate•
—the stagnation of trade, arising from the tran-
sition of the nation from a state
.ot war to one of
peace—all have been coosidcred as the causes of
our distress; and all probably have sonic share in
ptodneing the evil. Not the immediate and most
obvhinscause, at present, is to he toilful in the
lowne.ss of wages tt.mringst the working classes,
be W'hich it is absolutely impossible for them to
support thenaselVes and families, however well-
emj!loyed they may he, wijhout relief from some
gnat ter or other. When we are told that a eirtlll
weaver earns olly six or seven shillingsfi week,
thoneh he works sixteiut hours every day of that
CaO we. %vatic airy other proof ofhis dis-
tressed situation, or tired '‘k.e scald) for any other
cause for his discontent and Wretchedness These
wages must he Perfectly itietkquale to hiS own
ilprori, far less to the support.of hia The
inevitable consequence is, that relief miter he
sought for front the Parish, which is thus forced
to m,ke up the deficiency. We ate aware how
ild:rate 3 011[1;4 it is t'o interfere het wiXt the o.er-
ietot his mai.ter, and what Mischief might at isc
front attempting to regulate-the price of labour.
Buz it is Assoc obvious that wages like these arc
tliiicit 10-lOw :he value of laliouie
It appears, trout a spt-o-cii of Lord Castlereltfzb's,
during ti,e last 'hat both our Export :rand
Import Trade had increased, and we kafitc-that
the imporis of Co.tots have ofitte been very Miteli
8,1 4: mewed. 1, r4lm this We—infer, that as' rro;nv
goods ii:v.l! been lately manufactured its dining
noire flourishing periods. The evil, therefore,
- does not consist its ;he want of employment, but
in the lowness of wurees, by which'a workman is
obli.;:eil to tits almost double what he Was arCitS-
to do, hi order to gain a livelihood. 'From
(Ilia it arises that Tmany have nothUtg at all to do;
and others arc starved and bard worked at 'the

sante tiome
That the condition of the labouring classes has
deteriorated very mirch,from what it was formerly,
will• be evident to any one, who will compare the
value of labour and the price, of bread at the
present day, with what they were a hundred or
fifty years :Igo. We make hold to say, that the
weekly labour of a common workman as a mason,
a tailor, weaver, or shoemaker, could purchase
almost double the number of quarter❑ loaves a
hundred years ago, that the same labour can
buy at the present day. Nothing can evince more
clearly the distressed condition of the present
race of workmen, or explain more satisfactorily
the cause of the enormous amount of our present
Poor Rates.
We are aware, however, that there most he
•great difficulties in the way of reutedyiPg -this
evil. It is perhaps impossible to fix the value
of labour, which, depending on time demand am!
supply, must fluctuate accordingly. It 'is asset,-
. tial also that our manufactures should be as low
priced as possible, imm order to meet competition
in the foreign market. Yet we cannot help
wishing to see some plan chalked out, by which
labour should be better paid than it is at present.
And we luckily have an instance of this having
fie: n done with all the good effects that could be
wished for. Among the Spitalfields manufac-
turers, it is the practice for the masters and jour-
neymen to settle amongst themselves time price of
their labour, and this is regulated according to
the circumstances of the trade. Whether this
system, which has'answered so well in the limited
and local trade of Spitalfielmis, vv.ould succeed as
well in the more general business of the country,
we will not take it upon ourselves to say. But
we are disposed to thiok, that neither the distrets
nor the clamour of our Manufacturing poor will
terminate, till some increase takes place in time
price of their labour.

The execution of Edward Broadbent,' at Hors-
ham, on Friday, for the murder of 'Serjeant
Watson, Brighton, noticed in our paper of yes-
terday, was accompanied with the following 'dis-
tressing circumstance :—When the wretched man
dropped his handkerchief as a signal that he was
prepared, Mr. Stuart,, tire gaol7keeper, ordered
the man who was at the 'head of the horse to
more on, which he did not appear to understand,
n►od the unfortunate man finding no attention
paid to his signal, threw himself from the cart,
when, dreadful,to relate, the noose being bungling-
ly•formed, the rope slipped, and lowered 'the poor
fellow so, that his toes rested on the ground. The
gaoler now proposed to untie him, adjust therore,
and turn the sufferer off again; but one of the offi-
cers of the Sheriff called aloud for a spade, which
could not he procured for some minutes, but it was
at. length brought, when the ground was dug from
under his feet, which wt.?re held up by the exeeu-
dotter, during the operation, and at this period
the Acute sufferings of the dying man were made
manifest by a deep groan. The concourse of
spectators upon the melancholy occasion *as un-
usually small, in number not more than a -bun-
died, consisting chiefly of boys and girls.

G9RDON U. GORDON.

The LORD CHaNCELLCg delivered judgment, in
this long•contested cause. After a minute review
of all the depositions taken under the commission
sent down to Scotland, his .Lordship was decid-
ed,t.y of opinion, than when the defentkor, Janes
Gordon, obtained from the plaintiff, Harry Gor-
don, the agreement which the latter now sought
to set aside, he knew thartheir father and mother
had been privately married before, the birth. of the
plaintiff, his elder brother, whose legitimacy was
established by that marriage, and that the defen-
dant did not,. previously to the agreement,- com 7
municate to the plaintiff what he knew respecting
the legitimacy of the latter. Whatever Mr. James
Cordon might say to the contrary, his Lordship
could not entertain any other belief than that
which he had 'stated, without Supposing, what
there was not the stnallest reason to suspect, that
several of the persons tvhoge depositions had beets
taken by the Commissioners had been guilty of
th::. most deliberate and atrocious perjury. His
Lordship 6 n ally decided, that the Court was
bound to release the plaiotitf from an agreement
entered into
,troder such circumstances.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HASHLEIGH.-THE SAME VERSUS 36 OTHER

I'. LPS 9 N S .
These ejectwents, 37 in number, were brought
by the assignees of a person of the name of Dingle
against Cl►arles Itahleigh, EN. and whets, to
obtain possession of certain houses and buildings,
a pier, and other property, in a newly
crea!ed ',own called Charlestown, in the neigh.
bourhood of. St. Austle.

. _ .
I. It appeared that Dingle had been long in the
employ of Mr. Rashleigh, and though un-
educated was in possession of considerable powers
of perception.
_foresaw the immense bene-
it to be ,derived from converting a barren spot
into a port and harbour ; and, with the assist-
ance of Mr. Rashleigh, who had granted him a
freehold for life in the premises, actually convert-
ed that barren spot iuto.a place of the first import-
ance to the comity, as one which afforded the
g-reatest facility to trade, and the greatest advan-
tage to those engaged
_in, mining pursuits. Mat-
. Mt
went on with increasing success from 1790 rn
1-SO9, when Mr. Rashleigh withdrew his protec-
tint) from Dingle, arrested him, threw him into
prison, and re-assumed the possession of the
whole of the property. The other creditors of
Dingle sued out a commission of bankruptcy, and
the present plaintiffs, as assignees under that corn-
mission, proceeded to recover the possession; but
as Mr. Rashleigh set up a claim to a large amount
against the bankrupt, and insisted that lie had a
lien upon the lease, a reference was agreed to.
The award made upon that occasion was virtually
set aside at the last sittings in the Court of,
King's Bench', on the ground, that the arbitrator
had purposely kept out of the way, to avoid re-
ceiving notice-of the revocation of the submission,
and the elaints of the assignees were again put
forward.
The case was most ably argued epon the docu-
mentary evidence by Mr. Serjeant Pell, Mr. Gase-
lee,
Mr• SVildc, ant! Mr. Scarlett, jun. for the
plaintiff, and by Mr. Adam and Mr. Selwyn for
the defendants; the result was, (hat the plaintiff
obtained a verdict, complete, in 26 of the CalliSCs,

and as to the remaining 12, an objection was
taken, that a sufficiently formal livery and seizin
had not been made under the lease to the bank-
rupt.
The Learned Judge (1113sT) reserved the point,
and allowed the defendants to move the Court
above for a nonsuit as to the 12 ; but on the other
25 ejectments, the verdict was unconditional.

DURHAM ASSIZES, AuousT 13.
C RowN-CoU RT.—MURDER.

Eight o'clock this morning was tile time fixed
for this trial ; but so great was the curiosiety to '
see it, that soon after seven every corner into
which a human being could squeeze himself was
occupied. At eight precisely the trial began. It.
was obviously of a nature to excite the greatest
intetest. We recollect an extraordinary trial for
murder at Lancaster, two years ago, when a fa-
ther, his brother, his syn, and another, were
convicted of the murder of two helpless fe-
males, who were left in a house where
considerable property was to be found, and
were put to death only.. as a security against
the detection of the robbers. This case was re-
markably similar to that of the Ashcroits. But
here only one unhappy woman was in the house.
To her murder, however, was added the burning
of the house, in order to conceal both the rob-
bery and the murder. In this case too, as in that
of the Ashcrofts, the evidence .against the pri-
soners was entirely circumstantial. But the diffi-
culty was much increased in the present case by
the lapse of four years since the atrocious deed
bad been perpetrated.
John Eden, aged 28, James Wolfe, aged 56, and
George Wolfe, his son, aged 30, were charged with
the wilful [Harder of Isabella Young, at Herring-
ton, on the night of the 28th Aug. 1815.
Mr. WILLIAMS opened the case to the Jury.
The nature of the charge against the prisoners
:could not fail to have etwaged their attention.—'
Any attempt on his part to excite their attention
would be improper, therefore, as being super-
fluous. Bit it Would be improper for another
reason : any thing of exaggeration or inflamma-
tion which might Withdraw their minds from
sober and deliberate investigation would be most
improper. But there was in this case where-
withal to rouse their feelings, if he were to dwell
upon the circumstances. A young woman, belp;.
less and defenceless, was the person brutally,but-
ebered ; the house was set in flames to conceal
her :blood. Such were the circumstances of enor-
, fishy and atrocity attending the ease they were to
enquire into. But their great business was to
enquire who were the persons that had perpe-
trated this atrocious deed. He would shortly state
the outline of the evidence to be laid before them.
Isabella Young bad been -in the service of Miss
Jane Smith," since Lally Peat, a•Lady of great
iibulenee, and of.iingular habits and manners.—
One of her singular habits was to have only one
female servant in her house. Miss Smith
had been from home for• a week previously
to the 'murder, and had left Isabella Young
in her • house. at Herrington, a village about
four or five miles from the town of Sunderland.
Isaballa Young bad, been alarmed. the night be-
. •
fore this fatal attempt ; -she had heard the•bar re-
moved from the doOr, and in consequence solicited
a neighbour to sleep with her on the night of the
28th of August, 1815. Her solicitation failed ;
but that neighbour heard her bolt the door at ten
o'clock. Another neighbour found her about two
o', lock' next morning murdered. Thebonse hail
been set fire to ;. but the fire had no' reached the
part where she was at the time she was seen, and
dragged out. That the murder had been com-
mitted by some persons or other would he prov-
ed, therefore, beyond all coot roversy. He would
now state to them the evidence which al,
fected the several • 'prisoners, John Eden had
been a soldier in the Durham Militia, who
marched into Newcastle on the 26. h of August, the
Saturday before this tragedy. It would tie prov-
cal that he was Aren't from his segiMent on the
night of the 28th and the morning of the 29th, and
it the JurY would believe the witness, (James
Lincoln,) they would find that Eden called at that
witness's house on the evening of Monday the
28th, aud'told him, that be and two others were
going to HerrinOon on a very disagreeable hosi-
isess„ and spoke of Miss Smith's mouldy money.
An idea had prevailed 'that she had accumulated
money; this bad excited cupidity; and her re-
tired manner of living gave hopes of gratifying
that cupidity. Eden spoke, of her mouldy money,
and if the witness should - be believed, 'arid lie
knew no reason why he should not, they would
find hint that night upon this very business
Eden hail been a keehhan. Icn the evening he had
been it, blue clUthes ; next mottling he was seen
neatly dressed, andhaving honille,(oo Imimport ant
circumstance,) 12 miles from Newcastle. He had
every appearance of haling changed Isis clot hes.—
' Oa one occasion lie saidhe could establish en
alibi, and prove that he was at Newcastle; there
he- certainly, ought to have been, but be would
be proved by the muster-roll to have been-absent..
Now he would proceed to James Wolfe. He bad
held a farm front Miss Smith, and had fallen in
ar-
rear. with his lent. She had become displeased
with him, and got rid of him. ft would be proved
flint lie had afterwards, on many occasions, said he
would he revenged, he was not done with her yet..
In addition it would be proved, that in December,
1814, on a remarkable windy day, when a
wall bad been thrown .down, and killed a man, a
circumstance that naturally fastened on the me-
mo: y, Wolfe mentioned to a Jame'S Shaw the
wrongs and injustice done to him by Miss Smith,
and said that he-ivotild be revenged. To Shaw
Ise remarked, that it would be easy to rob her
house. Next as to George Wolfe, he had been
remaskably regular in his employment, which was
that of a furrier, at Bishop-Wearmouth buton
the night of the 28th he was absent, and Willi!)
he returned on the morning of the 29th, he ‘l,,ac
observed to have a black eye, and to have scratche
on his face, as if done 'with flails. . His first ace'
count of it was, " I was drunk, and fell in.the
streets of Sunderland." On another occasion .he
said, one of his children bad been unwell, and he
had risen to get sonic water for the • child,. and
hurt 110-iself. He was apprehended in Edinburgh,
and a pocketbook was found whir .him, which
he said he had got from the family of his wife siz
years before. Lady Peat would prove this pocket-

took to have been her's, and to have been in bierl
dwelling a week before the murder. Soch
the evidence which would be laid before 'bete
they would weigh it with that measured con-sle
41'
ration, and that attentive caution, which it -fie
their province to exercise ; and they wolA tar,
doubted not, come to such a conclusion al
evidence warranted. tto
After the examination of several witnesse°, to
of whom swore that. Eden• had solicited the to
sdi
assist in the robbery, and Lady Year had,Woro

session, as part of her stolen property,

suffer their f.telings to carry them to convta,

doubt that the prisoners, or any of them,/: pt
the perpetrators, they would find a lewc.
guilty.
The Jury retired about half past two n'c'ol,c.
It was then proposed to call another Jury for to'
other trial of murder in the calendar ; leer.
Lordship remarked that they could not by
proceed to another trial while a Jury were
closed upon murder. It was at last 0114 -
t
defer the other trial till to-morrow morning' •

eight.
At half-past four o'clock the Jury returned:'';
Their approach excited a most visible sensai°o
throughout the multitude as,4emble3 in Cfrilke

was repeated when Guilty was announced as 'oa
