tain Members of the above Company, or their Agent

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, NOVEMBER EC
JUDGMENT&

The ATTORNEY-GEN VIAL moved the judgment of
the Court on I. Jervis, E. Jervis, and S. Cleverly,
who had been convicted, at the late Assizes for
Devon, of assaulting 'l'. Day, an officer in the Cus-
toms, whilst in the execution of his duty. The pro.
secutor, it appeared, was commander of a King's
boat, at one of the stations on the coast of Devon, and
having, OR the day mentioned in the indictment, dis-
covered the defendant's boat in a situation which in-
duced bins to suopeet they had smuggled goods on
board, the prosecutor, together with two others, went
on board the King's boat, and gave chace to the de.
Pendant's boat. They soon came within hail of the
defendant's boat, and ordered her to lie to ; instead
of doing so, however, they ran their boat ashore, and
the prosecutor's boat coming up with them, Mr. Day
attempted to seize the boat, when he was violently
assaulted and beaten, and threats of murder were
held out by them, and would, in all probability, have
been carried into effect but for the interference of
the mother of one of the defendants, who was present.
The affidavit of the defendants was put in, deny-
ing that they had any prohibited goods on board, ex-
pressing contrition for the violent conduct they had
been guilty of, which they said was owing to their
being to a state of intoxication at the time ; adverting
to their former good conduct, and stating several in-
stances in which they had been aiding and assisting
the Custom.house officers in the discharge of their
duty ; and finally throwing thtmselves on the mercy
of the Court.

Mr. WILLIAMS and Mr. GIFFARD addressed the
Court for the defendants, and at the same time they
acknowledgeu the enormity of the offence of which
they had been guilty, urged their former good con-
&cc in mitigation of punishment.
Mr. Justice La BLANC pronounced the judgment
of the Court ; and observed, that the Court, on this
occasion, as on every other, would be happy to give
the defendants the benefit of their former good con-
duct; and, taking that circumstance into considera•
Lion, he was directed to pronounce, that they should
be imprisoned in Exeter gaol for six months.
Lord ELLENBOROUGII." The prisoners will recol-
lect, that it is only in consider.stion of their previous
good conduct that the Court forbear to call on them
for security for the future."
THE KING V. FRANCIS DRAKE.

The defendant was convicted of a fraud, in mixing
barley and bean flour in the bread, which was sup-
plied by contract to the French prisoners, at Dart-
moor. It appeared by the report, that a person of the
name of Billing was the contractor, with the Trans-
port Board, but that he left his contract to a sub-con-
tractor, at a premium of £5OO per month. The de-
fendant was one of them, and, instead of using pure
wheaten flour, which was stipulated by the contract,
I he mixed up a composition of barley, beans and In-
dian corn fluur. He was sentenced so six months im-
prisonment.
THE KING V. PRAM.

The defendant, a respectable attorney at Great
Grimsby, in Lincolnshire, was brought up for judge
ment for a libel on Mr. Clarke, the King's Counsel.
At the last Lincoln Assizes, Mr. Clarke was Counsel
in an assault cause, for the defendant in that cause,
and took occasion to ask one of the witnesses if the
damages were not to be shared with the attorney (the
present defendant) ? The witness at first said they
were; but afterwards explained that he had mistaken
the question. Mr. Clarke commented on this matter,
and the Hen day Mr. Frazer went to him, begging he
would retract what- he had said, as the charge was
totally unfounded. Mr. C. not choosing to do this the
defendant publiebed his letter ill the isacup Signory,

with lime very libellous expressions against Mr. C.
who filed an information against him for the libel.
The defendant put in an affidavit, in which amonv
other things he stated, that Mr. Clarke's client at Lin-.
coin, who gave him these libellous infractions, was a
discarded clerk of his (the defendant), and who had 1
Li
misled Mr. Clarke, as the defendant believed, iron 1
revenge to him.—The defendant was sentenced
one months' imprisonment, and to pay a fine of er2o 1

The Justices of Peace for Ayrshire. upon. the Sad
ult. gave' decision in a case, at their Fiscal's in-
stance, against Robert and George M,Coanan, chargee
with being common fowlers and poachers, aggravated
by their going openly through the country hunting,
with their fowling-pieces, on the Sabbath-day. Theii
dogs and guns were forfeited, and they were fined in
R 9. 101. of expenses, and committed to prison until i
the same was paid.
UNtow-Hatc.—Yesterday James Lawson was fined
10s. for selling goods on the Sabbath Day. Isaac
Lazarw and James Brown were also fined 10s. each
for being found tippling on a Sunday.
,r` GUlLDUALL.—Yesterday sixteen foreign seamen,'
who have navigated ships from India, and who were
prowling about the streets in a state of the most ab-
ject distress, were brought up for relief, when it ap-
peared that no provision had been made for them.---
Their case excited much compassion; and at length
a Mr. Smith, in the India service, undertook to send
them in a vessel to Bombay, and to his charge they
were delivered.

Bow-mei:T.—Yesterday Jam lIO6SOII, a porter,
employed at the Swan with Two Necks, in Lad-lane,
was brought to the Office by summons, charged with
various frauds, committed on the Earl of Bristol, by
charging more money on the delivery of parcels than
the regular charge at the Inn.—lt appeared from the
evidence of servants in the employ of the Noble Earl,
that a great number of parcels had lately been sent
from the country to his Lordship, most of which had
been overcharged. The defendant was only charged
on one parcel, for carriage and porterage was two
shillings and ten-pence, and he had charged and re-
ceived three shillings and eight pence.—He was con-
victed in the penalty of 20s. and costs.
Richard Hurd, alias Wilson, was convicted as a re-
puted thief, for being found at the sale of the late Mr.
Justice Lawrence, in Bedford-square, on Monday,
for the purpose of committing felony.
MANSION 'mum—Yesterday dune Boum: was char-
ged by Mr. Hatton with stealing jewellery, &c. from
his shop, near London-bridge.—The prisoner, as well
as one or two of her relations, had been employed by
the prosecutor for a considerable time • but finding
that a good deal of his property had been taken away
from time to time, he sent for one of the parties, and
while examining that person, the prisoner, who ac-
companied the other, contrived to take a silver knife
and some pieces of ribbon, which, with duplicates of
goods, were found upon her, and which the prosecu-
tor had no doubt belonged to him.—Committel
G. Rice, a respectable-looking young man, was
charged by Edward Sisswell and another with steal-
ing a pair of silk stockings and a coat.—The charge
was fully proved, and the Lonp MAYOR was a'aout to
commit him, when, at the suggestion of his father, a
respectable tradesman, and the prosecutor, he was
permitted to go on board the tender.
A young man was found dead near Ayton, upon
the 11th inbtant, having lost his way, he perished by
the inclemency of the weather. A red pocket-book,
contained £l5 Bs. Id. and three certificates. From
the certificates it appeared that he was a native of
Montrose, and named John Butler ; that he belonged
to the ship Termagant, Captain Charles Shaw, pre.
sently lying at Woolwich, and had leave of absence.
Wednesday, between one and two o'clock, one of
the iron pipes laid to conduct water along the Strani,
burst with a loud report, near the door of the Cecil-
street Coffee-house, and threw up a volume of water
with uncommon force. The aperture in the pipe pro-
duced a spout of water at least 10 inches in diameter,
which dashed upon the front of the Coffee-house, so
as to compel the occupiers to shut the windows and
door. At the time the accident happened, the win k•
men who had been repairing the pipes had left their
work to go to dinner, and some time elapsed before a
stop could be put to the eruption.
