ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. "1

NAIRSTONE. AUGUST
James Catemora was indicted for assaulting Robett
Hamilton, on the King's highway, at Deptford, on the
9th of May last, putting him in fear, and taking from
his person two seals, a watch-key, and other article's.
The prisoner was driver of a Greenwich stage-cciesb,
and the prosecutor stated, that, about half-past nine on
the evening of the 9th of May, be was standing in the
Broadway, Deptford. when the prisoner drove up,
alighted from his coach, rushed past hint, and
snatched at his watch, but the ribbon giving way, the,
seals only were taken. He pursued the prisoner, saw him
throw the seals into the road, and took him in custody.,
On his cross-examination, the prosecutor said, he fol-1
lowed no regular business; that he was perfectly sober
when the robbery took pbtce, that he had himself been
in Maidstone Jail on a charge of uttering base money,
and had suffered a year's imprisonment ; he swore po-
sitively that he did not accuse a man named Nicholls of
this robbery, and was quite certain that the prisoder
was the offender.

The prisoner was proved to be a man of respectable
character. Nothing was found upon him. He was re-
leased by the constable for the night on his own pto-
mite to appear before the Magistrates next morning,
when he appeared accordingly. There was a great
crowd about the prosecutor when he was robbed, and
some notorious thieves were seen in the crowd.
Two witnesses were called on the prisoner's behalf,
who swore that the prisoner could not have been the
offender, inasmuch as he was not near the prosecutor
when he came off his coach-box. They added that the
prosecutor was drunk at the time.
The Learned JuDoz left the prisoner's identity as to
being the robber to the consideration of the Jury, and
they immediately found the prisoner Not Guilty.
James Balser was indicted for maliciously cutting
and maiming Richard Price, at East Greenwich, on the
16th July last, with intent to murder him.
The prosecutor .deposed, that be was a publican in
Southwark, and occupied some land which lie'had pur-
chased of Al Mr. -Barnett. at Greenwich, one part of
which he made intobricks, and the rest he left' in pas-
ture.. The, prisovier had formerly occupied-she same
land, and ,was in the habit of turning out an.old'horse,
upon it ; witness warned him not to do so; in cense-
quence 'of continuing to do so he impounded his hotse.
The 16th of July the prisoner's horse was again tres-
passing oil the land. Witness Warned him of it, and'
said, " If you don't remove the horse I shall impound
it." The prisoner replied, "If you pound my horse,'
111 pound you." Witness called his servants to remove
the horse, when the prisoner sttddenly opened his coat,
drew out an axe, and struck at him over the temple
with the handle of it: Witness put up his hand to guard
his head, and the prisoner struck at him again with the
blade of the axe, which cut his hand and took a bit
of flesh out of it. His head bled very 'much from the
first blow. •
• In this stage of the case the LTarned Juno' rater=
posed, and told the Jury that, in, his opinion, the facts
proved would not bring the ollknce M ithin the scope of
the indictment as to the intent -alleged. The prisoner
was certainly liable to an indictment for another offence,
but not one of a capital nature.—The Jury, therefore,
under the Learned Judge's directions, found the pri-
soner Not Guilty.
William Digg was indicted for feloniously killing'
and slaying Solomon Cock, on the 26th April last.
Mr. Beeves conducted the prosecution. The pri-
soner and the deceased were paupers in Linstead work-'
house, and the deceased, a lad about 18, had the care
of the prisoner's children. On the day mentioned in the
indictment the prisoner came into the room where the
deceased was, and struck him several blows. Previously
to this time the deceased had been in a bad srate•of
health, but was then convalescent. In three days after
the beating, the deceased took to his bed, and died 16 '
days afterwards; and it was for the Jury to determine
whether the death was occasioned by the prisoner.
Join Carter and Elisabeth Bonny, . paupers in Lin-1
stead woe kkouse, deposed to the circumstances of the
case. The deceased had the care of two of the pri.
:once: children, in the kitchen of the workhouse. The

children were crying, and complained, in the hearing
of their father, that the deceased was beating them.
The prisoner, who was in an adjoining apartment, came
into the kitchen,and struck the deceased several blows
with his fists The blows were not very yiolent.—ln two
days afterwards - the deceased took to his bed, and at
the end of sixteen days died. He had been a weakly
lad, and had a complaint is his heart. It appeared that
the prisoner's wife had incited him to stake the de-
ceased, upon hearieg the latter beating the -children.
The surgeon. of the workhouse deposed, that the de-
ceased had been ill for two years with a pain in the
cheat, and wat_ greatlytdebilitated.—After death the

body was opieseccand it.was discovered that the left-
lobe of the longs was inflamed. Inflammation in the
kidneys was the immediate cause of death. There were
lip external marks of violence on the body, nor wort,
there any internal appearances to warrant the surgeon
in saying that the inflammation was produced by the
blows. The deceased was a nervous subject, upon whom
passion might have had powerful effects.... •
An attempt was =Mk to give* a .dying dociaraden of the ie•

lag dri!oludou. It was not admitted triavidcnee. .

of Northern Africa, into the equatorial regions, to mitigate their
heat, sad rester* the equilibrium. the warm air from these latter

As the current of warm air advances North, the vapours it beers
with it are condensed into fogs; as may be seen off the ban of
Newfoundland and on the Atlantic, between the parallels of 45 4rg..,

GARD2IIII•-A Grand Gala was given at
these Gardens last night, to celebrate the Anmversary
of. his KIAJIUTY*II Birth-day,, and it was one of the most
splendid and most numerously attended which we have
seen for some years. In addition to the usual decor*.
Oony,, there were a variety of tasteful devices descriptive
otthe national festival.. In the front ;of the Orcllestra
and all around were suspended the flags of the several
nations of Europe, amongst which those of Great Bri-
tain were, of course, very compicuouslY placed. At one.
side of the quadrangle, in the.rtar of the orchestra, the
words." The King, our Patron's natal day," were eye-
toted in very brilliant lights? They were surmounted
(instead of the Royal ArMs) with the representation of a
small sloop rigged out with 'variegated lamps. The
effect, . however, was very ins'posing. • In the .Musical,
