this fellow said, and told him that his plan would
-not do. Oliver insisted that it was the only way
to obtain it, and said the people of Derby ought
'to rise up. Some days after this, a messenger
from London, and two constables, knocked at
his door, broke into his house, and said that
Lord Sid►nouth wished to speak to him, and must
see him in London ; he was then taken to the
county jail, loaded ►with irons, and soon after put

into a carriage with another man, •in order to be
conveyed to London. They were both ekained
together, they were even chained together while
in bed. At last he arrived in London, and Was
brottAt before Lord Sidmouth, whom he defied
to bring any charge against him. Lord Sidmouth
replied, that he had evidence from a most respect-
able source that he had committed acts of trea-
son. He wets then sent to Cold Bath Fields

prison, where he remained a few days ; he was
afterwards sent to Gloucester jail, where he was

thrown into the cell of Ft condemned murderer.
Here his clothes were always damp, and he en-
dured the greatest hardships. While he under-
went these suffering,s, his tiade, by which be had
maintained his family espectably, was entirely
broke lip, and his wife and children had been since
living On a miserable pittance from the parish.
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT said, that after the
simple, but eloquent appeals made to the Com-
pany, it was unnecessary to take up their time any
longer, or by any further remarks, than to im-
press on all the,ir minds the n,xessiry of contri-
buting to the relief of those who bad suffered suet)
atrocious injuries, and who could obtain no in-.
demnification from their oppressors. • It was still
less necessary for him to say any thing now as he
should shortly be confronted with those opnres-.
stirs in another place ; and tell them to their faces
what their conduct hail been.

A Committee Was then appointed, and a.list of
Subscriptions read by the Secretary, Mr. Cleary;
amongst those whose names, real and anonymous,
excited great applause and-laughter, were,

Lordship declared that he unequivocally approv-
ed of

Burdett—that he should constantly imitate the
same, and tread in his.ceps.--The Meeting then
broke up.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, FEE. 2.

MAXWELL V. DANIEL.

This was an action for money had and received
by Captain Murray Maxwell, who commanded the
Alceste, and catried out the embassy to China, to
tecover the sum of 513/.los. alleged to he due to
him from the Defendant, the prize-agent for the
booty taken by the expedition fitted out against
Surinam, in the year 1804, in which the plaintiff
had a command under Sir Samuel Flood.
The plaintiff's den►and was resisted, on the
ground that the defendant had accounted for the
suns in question with a Mr. James Maxwell, ano-
ther prize-agent of Plaintiff,' at the island of
Barbadoes, the defendant having received a gua-
rantee frOm the agent in the West Indies.
It was purely a question of account, and in the
result the plaintiff was non-suited.
