PRET F: N 1141) if R
Duatiw, ?defter( iB.—The inhabitants of Cabin-
teely, and the furrounding country, have ban for
tome time back amufed, or rather aßonillted of the
prodigies performed by a perfen named Barrett, who,
it is afferted, has relieved from various direafes and
diftortions a number of perfons ft om all parts of the
country. Some foldFers quartered at Cabiateely
conch rnoßfolemnly for the truth of Saint Barrett's
streverations, who allures the faithful of his power and
willingnefs to keep fickner. and deformity from their
foul and body. On IA Sunday the quarters of the
North Cork regiment were filled with anxious en-
quirers from the metropolis, who received petted
fatisfation as to the furprifing (kill of Saint Barrett
but on expteffing a defire to fee the perfonage whore
affirms were fo much extolled, they were grieved to
tindedland that the worthy gentleman was commit-
ted to prifon (as an impaling vagrant we ruppore).—
We (hall not comment on the trilling prejudices
which led to a belief in the miracles of Barrett, but
we (hall take occafion to congratulate the gentlemen
of the faculty on the committal of a man whofe im-
pofitions were fo likely to deprive them of much fame
and emolument.
This extraordinary being, when brought to the
Cattle, gave a curious account of bimfclf t lee rays he
has been travelling for 45 years over Ireland, pen
forming Miracles which he Rates he did gratuitcs
ly. He is an Triunes, of a defcription much alien

tenance, has a long beard, and is attired in !itch a
habit as hermits have been Paid to ufe, and if fup-
pored to be about 74 years of age. Notwithßanding
the power which this venerable man ridiculonfly at.
fames, it is incredible the number of perfons who
followed him even to the Cattle, where many rerpec-
table, and it might be fuppofed rational, men and
women appliedonoff qrgently, to have admittance to
him. to be eared of different complaints. One young
lady's intreaty was irrefiftible ; the was troubled with
a falling ficknefs, and fupplicated to be touched by
this father of men.. He performed the ceremony, and

the fair creature, he mull have abandoned loch ;tre-
adles of lovelinefs. Being Aced. if he ever had dif-

TRIALS BEFORE THE RECORDER,
MARCll'l9.—Thomas Farrell, Efq. flood indicted
for an afrault, with an intent to provoke a duel, by
Uttering the words—" r4fcal„ liar, and coward,"
again{ George Kennedy, Gent. Attorney, on the
38th July laR.
Mr. M‘Nam.y laid down the law in cafes of this
nature with his ofnal precition. He obferved, that
the words liar, rarcal, fcourdrel, and all filch epithets,
are often uttered in the ferment of pal ion, when the
parties are often high in blood, and hot with the
Tufcangrape, while, like the character of ourgenerous
countrymen, their hearts the moment after are
yearning with affclion towards each other. The
Intent with which fuch exprefKons are uttered mull
be proved, in order to lay proper grounds for indid•
meats limiter to the prefent. The intent can only be
dig-Covered by the tenor of the evidence, to which be
doubted not the Jury would pay due attention.
The Profecutor proved, that he was intuited and
abufed in an unprovoked manner by the T ter
while watering the horfe which drew his gig, in which
Were his wife and child along with himfelf, on the
evening of the day laid in the indiament. The
Traverfer befpattered him all the way from near the
Rod a Blackall thee, with the appellations of rat
cal, liar, and coward and a perfon in his pretence
silted the Profecutor if he would take advantage of
the Traverfer if be fent him a mange. In the courfe
of the converfarion the Commercial Coffeeloufe was
Appointed for a meeting. The Profecator's purpofe
seas an amicable accommodation after a fuitable
apology'.
. The Traverfer, it appured, had inflituted an attilo
of damages againfi the Profecutor, whofe witnefs
(wore pufirively that Mr. Kennedy was the aggrellor,
whole teflimony, however, was tupported by a Mr.
Cooper, of the fame prof:Rion.
The Jury, by their Foreman, eapreffed themfelves
entirely at a lots to determine which of the parties to
believe ; each was equally firm in his tellimony, and
no prevarication or inconfißeney could be ailedged.
After one of thefe happy delineations of humour,
peculiar to Mr. CURRAN, it was concluded, by con-
tent of all parties, that a Juror Mould be withdrawn,
on the implied condition that the Traveller thould
wi:lhiraw his action, and the profecutor drop the
criminal proceeding.
W. Richardlen, a orator in the Admiralty, on a
fimilar charge by Mark Magrath, Efq. was acquit.
ted! He tendered evidence tojultify, from precedent,
a charge of 6s. Bd. for writing a money receipt,
which the Court feemed to think extremely repreheo-
. fible, and retnfed to hear any thing in extenuation.
The particulars are too tedious, as well as too techni.
cal for recital.
The infolence of ferrants has been illullrated with
the protecuriou of a Mrs. Walker, by her cook, a
drapping female, who deputed, fir R, that the traverfer
chargedler en the watch for eating ton much; fe-
aondly, flu 'lime that (be beat her unmercifully and
turned her naked into the fireets.-exhibiting at the
time violent pinky with blood on her neck and
bofoess. Thii pan of her tellimony was fupported
by Anne Conroy.
The firftwitnefs for the Traverfer depofed, that

ticfs'i. (ace, called lice by a certain name, which
iterhaps might have (kaput the tereitrols of Dodor

Johnfon, but certainly can be found in Sterne, f. e.
'6 Mundungus." She silo depofed, that the cook,
in effeß, iliquilmt et Aere, had defaced her own
lovely bofom, on which the rays of many a coal fire,
aided by a little internal pabulum, feemed delighted
to concentrate themfelves. This witnefs was partly
fopported by two others on a rational and confifient
key, which caufed a verdid of acquittal.
Pat. Reynolds, for affaulting James Dogherty,
was found Guilty.
James Lynan, for affaulting Anne Hopfon, a
young girl, whole thigh he had fraaured with the
blow of a Rene. The girl, notwithftanding her me-
lancholy condition, feemed difpofed to palliate his
condudt.—Guilty.
After many other cafes of lets note, the Court
adjourned to Monday nest, for trial of Records.

Thomas Temporell, otherwife Thomas Otter, was
executed at Lincoln, on Friday lag, for the murder
of Mary Kirkham. His body was hung in chains
on Saxilby Moor, near to the place where he com-
mitted the horrid murder, which he conferred. When
meafured for the irons, a few hours hefore his execu-
tion, all his fortitude appeared to forfake him, for
the firil time, and when taken to the gallows he did
not bold up his bead.
Saturday T. Barns and J. Sinott were executed
near Winchefter. After their condemnation, their
behaviour was troly penitent. The former was at-
tended by a Clergyman of the Church of England,
and the latter by a Catholic Prieft.
When Shinn had arrived at the place of execution,
and whilft joining in prayer with the grief, he con-
trived to flip back the ftring by which his arms were
pinioned, which enabled him to put his hands to his
head ; and when the rope and cap were fixed, he took
both off, and refilled their being replaced. He then
called to Mr. Lee, the prieft, who humanely return.

fubmit to his fate. Sinott requefted him to remain,
that he might fee'bim, which lie did. Still Sinott refill-
ed, and it was found neceiary to call id the javelin.
men to hold him, before the rope and cap could be
again adj o fled.
Barns waited his fete with the greatell refignation,
without uttering one word, or attempting the flightell
oppofition.
Sinott was a feaman on board the Audacious man
of war, and was convifled (under Lord Ellenbo-
rough's A 8) of wilfully cutting and maiming John
Bell, of the fame Chip.
It appeared by evidence on the trial, that on the
sad or sad of December laft, about eight o'clock at
night (the (hip then lying at Spithead), Bell had re-
tired to his hammock, and quickly fell afleep ; Coon
after which be was followed by Sinott, with a knife
in his hand, who cut him acrofs the face, and, on
putting up his hands, he was again cut acrofs the
hands, arms, breaft, and throat. In his ftruggle,
Bell fell out of his hammock, which alarmed Come
of the crew, who immediately feized Sinott with the
open knife, and his hands covered with blood.—
Surgical &Mance was inftantly procured, or the tin-
fortunate man mull have bled to death. Bell could
not account for Sinott's violent attack on him, not
having had any previous quarrel with him. Sinott
was in the 2:d year of his age.
On Sunday night, a woman, of difirefred ippear-
ance, with two children, went to the watch hook of
the Precina of Aldgate Without, for a night's lodg-
ing; being told (he could not be fo indulged, the laid,
file would leave the houfe a legacy, and ran away,
leaving a girl about five years of age behind her.
