LONDON SESSION 3.

- - -
Ytfterday the Seflions for the Ci'y of Llndon were
opened in the ufual form, by the Right I-I.n. the
Lotto Marna, RECORDER, and the Bench of Alder-
men. After a Travet re Jury was fworn,
Panic/ Grant was given in charge for a violent of
fault upon two coralables of the city, of the names of
Grove. and Swabfall, whiltt engaged in the execu
don of their tefpative duties.
It appeared, from the tellimony of the two officers,
cot rob rated by the evidence of a fcldier of the Ealt
London Militia, that the Defendant, Grant, had,
between the hours of ten and eleven, on the night of
the 3 t ft of May lalt, been guilty of a violation of die
public peace, in Bilhopfgate-lbeet, contiguous to a
public houfe, frequented by furvicious and improper
charadlers, and from fuch reatons detignated The
NO. That in purfuance r f their duty, the rams
interfered, and ddired the Defendant to depart ;
but were told by him, that be neither cared a damn
for them or the Lord May, r, and that he would not
depart at their dia;e. On the contlahles pr, ceedir.g
to take him to the watch hi ufe, the Defendant a led
out to a licenti•ais mob that wa. colleFted, 6 Mai I
go ? mutt Igo ?" This appeal excited the interell
of the multitude, and the officets weie violently af-
faulted.

The Defenchot, at averal times, vied out " N?tv
is the time—cut them," and frequently Struck at tl e
ffice;s. When they :wive,' of the watch houfe,
blood tvas perceived to iffue from Swabfall, and ort
examining, it was ft um! that he was cut by tome'
fhatp instrument, through his coat, waistcoat. and
fbitt. No evidence was produced on the past of the
Defendant, and the jury, without hefiration, found
hills Guilty of the twits' counts of the indiament.
After a filtrable admonition from the Recorder,
upon Mee lenity of the piofectator,, in not bringing a
capital charge. the Defendant was fentenced to an
imptifunment of twelve calendar inf,nths, in the gaol
of Newgatt, for the affault upon Groves. And after
the expiration of that term, to a further imprifon.
matt of twelve months, fur the 411..iu1t upon Swabf.til.
The Rev. P. Gems:: was mu arraigned for a
violent alfault upon William J .nes, by firing at him,
a loaded piflol, on the 6th of May lad, in Fenthur ch.
Ilrea t.

The Com mos Sulu my opened the profscutiun
on the part of the Crown. He had to regret; that
a perfon ls:fonging to fo facred a prolefi •n as that c f
which the Defendant was a member, fhould lure
attempre,', without any juit;fiable caute, to take away
the life of a fellow creature. Indeed, in regulating the
confliaing palfions of human nature, where was for-
bearame to be expeaed, unlsfs the example was af-
forded by that prof-drum whrsle more immediate
province it was to intliud Christians in the perfor•
mance of their moral duties, and to exhibit peace and
good will to all snankin.i ? The Learned Gentleman
then Rated the nature of the evidence which would
be adduced ; and obferved, that the law had lair&
tively provii,d that when, in coLfequence of inittake
or mifdit eition, an dicer, executing a pincers r f the
law, !hall millake the perfon, an aftion for the injur y
(hall lie with the irjoted individual. And though
the law had nut attached the clime if murder to the
flaying of an • fficer, when improperly executing a
process oflaw, yet it has ever confidered fuch an a?...-
greflion as a eery fevere and aggravated at of cat-
ininAlity. In the prefent cafe, as far as he was
inflrtraed, he could not anticipate any thing like a
defence. unlefs it was the watt of cotifcionfn:fs in
the individual at the moment the wanton :Inuit was
perpetrated. If luch !honld appear, there was a
jurifthaion 'iven to that Colin to provide, as well
I.r the lituation of the Defendant, as for the claims
of the public fafety. H: then proceeded to produce
evidence:

William Jones being fworn, depofed, that he was
a ticket porter, at the George and Vulture, Cgrohill;
that between the hours of four and five, on the
evening of the 6th of May laft, he was enga4ed by
a Mr. Pokas (whom be fince knew to be a She. ill's
Officer), to go silt him to Fenchurch-ttreet. When
arrived there, he raw Mr. Bather, whom he then
knew to be an officer, (landing in an ironmonger's
chop, ut No. 62, He beard Barber fay to Pokas,
fee you have bri ught a man with you ; yes, replied
Pokas. Witnefs was then defied to proceed up
lairs. He did not know the nature of the bufinefs,
but ptefumed it was to bring down Lome parcels.—.
Pokas told him not to be afraid. When Witnefs
heard this advice, he proceeded more cautioufly ;
and when he got up within a flep or two of the
landing, he law the defendant, with whore perfon he
was acquainted, and whom be had frequently feen
in his dee ical habit, advance towards him. Witncfs
then flopped, and the. Clergyman came up to him,
levelled aPM at him, and fired. Not a word
paled between bins and the defendant. The ball
enteted his right fide, about fix inches from his back.
He did not fall, but returned down fiairi, and was
taken to the Hofpital, whete he was confined fix
weeks. He-never exchanged a wird with the defen-
dant, nor could there be Any ground of enmity be.
&went them.

On his crnis-exlmillation, 71e laid that the door
Iretween the Ihnp and the paiTage was forced by the
.fficer Barber, but that there was no great cralb.—
He could not fay whether the officers followed him
upllairs or not.

Mr. Pok:tc, t!le career, wu nrxt
but was n'.t in Crutrt.

The next Wittier% was Mr. Balser, a Sheriff's
Oils .'r. depored, th it on the 6:11 of May h • went
with P...kts to amt a perfoo of the name of Gerard
Gerard, under an execution for Ito!. That oa
their w.ty to Fenchnrch-Itrett, Pokas Paid he was
tequainted with the perfcm of the man defignated in
the warrant. Up.m that affsrtion Witnefs depended.
Q.2eaion from the Jury—Did you read the name
on tae door of the defendant's houfe V—A. Not until
next day.
Pokas had the writ in his poffeffinn : when they
went up to the drawing room cf the defendant, Pokas
laid fomenting which ‘Vitnefs did n.tt hear; but
whet wai told that they-had an exectui againft
•
him, the defendant replied in very bad language,
' and laid they were both thieves and damned fcoun
Witnefs neverfaw a pedon, when arrefted,
fo violent before. The defend int then ef:aped
11 through a falls door, and ran up hair,. Pokas tol-
lowed, and -IVitnefs after him, when they were al.
failed by billets of wood thrown down at them by
I the defendant. They then withdrew, Pokas to get
an-other ,man, and Witnefs remained ontfide' the
dreg donr, to prevent cif feadatkes efeape: • When
HPokas returned with Jones, Witnefs remarked to the
Ilatter, that they hid a very troublefoine cuttinner up
Witnefi followed Jones up lairs, and, when
about fix (hp, from him, law Mr. Gerrans advance,
with a 001 in each hand, level.the one in the right
hand at Jotte,, and fire, without fpeaking a wnid.—
There was nothing either laid or done to provoke
the violence
,of the defendant, but every thing was
offered to the contrary.
On his trot; examination, 'rimers admitted that he
did not know what converfation paired between the
defendant and P. kis, when the latter fit ft went lip
to him, but there was not time for much ; rays
Pokas never acquainted him that the defendant de-
clared he did not owe two pounds to any man upon
earth : mutt fuppofe that the defendant law him fol-
lowing Jones up Hairs when he fired. A Mr. Beckett
was the attorney in the atiinn ; and witnefs admit-
ted, that, in a card he received from him; he was
informed, that the pea f.n whom they were to weft
under this warrant, had lately come into the neigh
bourhood of Fenchurch lime', and had previoufly
refided at Chelfea.

Mr. Poi, LEY, for the defendant, ably expatiated on
the aggravated conduct of the officers, and on the
probable mi'conceptinn which ruch a trefpafs might
have created in the mind of the defendant. He alfo
commented on the non appearance of the officer,
upon whofe tellimotty, with that of others.
the Grand Jury found the bill. It was (!range and
difficult to,rtconcile the conduit of the officers in
at reiting.a man with whole perfon one of them pr...
tetfcd to be acquainted, and who was a ittident in
the Game Meet for twelve years, with the tellimony
of limber, that the per fon defignated in the writ had
lately come into that part of the city, and had, until
within a thort rime, lived at Cheltea. If loch Wet.
'nations did not Antolini to :-...jultificati in, in hi.. npi•
Dion, they went to mitigate the condud of the tic.
fen. Lint.

As there was no evidence produced on the part of
the defendant.

The It COR or R rammed up the evidence at length,
and concluded wi;le arnngly opul the
Jury, that no apptelvnlinn, either as to.prnpert y or
Tiber y, cap juaify any man In take away the life of
a fellow-creature. The Jury, atter fume confidera-
tivn, brought in A verdift of—Guilty.
The Court fcen.ed anxious afcertain whether
any miligalan wa, intended to be moved on the
ground of mental derangement, the Counfel for the
defendant laid, they had no filch inltrudions. Mr.
Gerrans then addreifeJ the Court, evidently under
agitati-n, and potitively denied that there was any
Ulan wounded t he conceived the whole ideal, and
depicted the fulfelings he had undergone. ft was
then evident that he was far removed from perfea
nientAl con3pefure. Sentence was pultponed.

The profccutrix dep.ifed, that as the was quietly

allailed by Mrs. Savage. who eluded her with great
virulence. adding, thatihe was a w--, and defer-

Foe this bca.ing, the had preferred the prefent indict•
Ingot;

Mts. Savage awed, in her defence. that the prn
vocation the ha.l received fully inaitied her in the
revenge the had taken. The profccntris had fedu-
ced horn het arms a kind and loving hatband. who,
pi for to his unfortunate acqoaintansie with Mifsjack.

truly gold bulb.nd.
This eonnedion he indnarionfly kept a ferret. and
adually obtained from his deluded fpnttfe a one pound
note, the fink f her industry, which be lavithcd

Several witoetfes norioboratesi her testament. and
the Jury entertaining fame doubts as to the integrity
of Mils Jackfon's objeft, in profecuting a woman to
infamoul]y ufed through her fedationsi acquitted
the defendant.

Mari Lutunon, of Oxford lLreer, was ttied for an
altiolt and battery, on the profecation ot•one of his
own former coach drirers.

The charge was, that the profecutor applied per.
focally to Mr. Lemmin for a balance of wages due I
to him at the time he was difmitFed from hi. fervice ;
and, icilead of receiving the balance in nth, had
received a revere beating upon his head with a dick,

from the pfssfecsit• r'r hand in the yard, but cffered
no further Yis•lence. It was admitted by the prole-
cufnr, on cr•fs examination, that he 1110 been dif-

join Dutton, the Gate keeper of the Turnpik.; on
Putney B:idge, between l'otney arid Fulham, with
a man rf .he nacre of &wit, and ore. luylor, were
indiCted f.r an affaultiaan the profectui,n i.t* tbe fer
cants of Mr. Vernon, of Berkeley Iva e, the folicitor
to the Mint, who had advifed his fervants to carry on
llid:prefent profecution.
Mr. Vernon, with Mrs. Vernon and a young I ad!,
was driving to town from his country Feat, in a p!:.te-
ton, followed by his groom on liorfehaek, and his but-
ler and footman in a gig. As foon as thephaetiin paired
the toll gate, the gate keeper feized the rein of the
groom's hook, which was high Ipirited and capered
about, while the groom told the gate keeper, that he
mull.not be flopped, as his fellow fervants, jolt fol-
lowing down from the centre of the bridge, would
pay fur all the equipage.
The' butler, on teeing the reizare, put up his hand
from the gig, and hallooed out that he would pay all.
The gate keeper, however, held the reins of the
gronnet: honk iiill, and, aided by Taylor, pulled the
groom from iris bode, a fctiffie entire'', as the gig
came no, and the butler paid the toll for all ; but
the leuffie had not for Tome time fisbliJeci, and not
until the conftable, being fent for, had rirrived. A
number of friends from the water, and the Swan
public houfe, in Fulham, affembled on behalf of their
neighbour the gate keeper, and the gro..m, enraged
at being (lopped from following his mailer :red mil**
'refs, and being unhorfed, offered to fight the gate
keeper; or any other man in the (hip. as he Riled it.—
It was proved, that this was the ufual mode .4 pay.
ing, in filch cafes, the laa perfnn in the equipage
paying for all, not only near London, but in dittant
parts.
It was contended, that the groom had alighted of
himfelf, to fight the toll man, fer flopping his !rode,
and that the capering was canted by the rpm..
Mr. COWST, on the part of this very long and well
conteiled profecution, being with Mr. GUINflf, of
Counfd for the defendants, in alluding to the fpur,
made a quotation from a prologue written by Mr.
Sheridan, in which, alluding i the equeßrian hesoes
of Rotten row, that celebrated wit lays—
While ht, left heel, infidioull? Ode,
Provokes thuk capers which he Teems to ebl,le.
After the greater part of the day was confumed
by this trial, the Jury, after a very elaborate chugs
from the Chairman, found a verdift of guilty agairdl
the gate keeper, and verdiEts of aqui/Arias to tire
other defendants.

On giving judgment, the Berth expreffed their
regret that Inch a trivial cafe (hmid have occttpitd
ft mock t•f the time of the Court and pu:)lic, and
fined the gate keeper one (billing only.
Mr. .:!burn 1414 a furgeon and man midwife,
reading at Hammel (midi, in pra4lice for feveral years,
was tried for an afifault, upon another furgeon, a
young man of the name of Chapman, of the fame
place, lately fct up in Inland's there.

. - •
It was !late,' for the profectrion, that although
the injury folained was very trivial, being only the
feizing of Mr. Chapman by the left arm, and turn•
ing hint horn one fide of a lane to the other, and
fqueezing his arm hard by the athletic grafp of Mr.
Well's far fuperior ltrength, yet that, as i!1 will or
a eivaiihip in flfillers, feemed to have pro•oked this
alTault, and as Mr. Weit wa, io the habit of thakiPg
his head at Mr. Chapman, it became necciTary to put
an end to fuch praaices, by this profecution.
When Greek melts Greek, then coma the tug of war!
The ptifoner had no Connie', and admitted ill; a
fait; but (fated, that the profecutor provoked the
ali.sult, by putting i.is back to a gate leading int )

was going to yifir, 'hot tly after he bad attended her
in a labour ; he laid he had rtquiied the profecutor
