At the Winchester Assizes on. Friday, John Brit-
ton, Captain in the West India Itimgers, was in-
indiaed for the wilful murder of his son, George
Britton, by beating him and kicking him about the
body. It appeared in .evidence that the prisoner
had repeatedly beat his son very violently, and• Mr.
Powell, ti surgeon, had no doubt that the mortifi-
cation, which was the cause of his death, ensued
from the contusions on the bad:, which were the
aggregate of several days beating. The indio meta,
however, ,having stated the deceased to have been
killed on a specific day,' when it turned out . that 'he
had died of the aggregate ill treatmenr he had re-
ceived on -several da) s, and that the chastisement
ihfli6ted on him on any one day, would not have
been sufficient to have caused death, the Judge di-
reeled the acquittal of the prisoner.
The Oxford Assizes zummenced on W, dneaday
last John. Bennett, convi,:ted of returning trout
transportation before. the expir.ition of his Sentence;
was lett for extcution. •
