him as a deferter. A rule was granted to thew
rank why there should not be a, new trial upon
the affidavit of Captain Lowe of the Fifethire Fen-
cables, Rating that the plaintiff had sifted as a Re-
cruiting Serjcant to that corps. It was now ihewn,
however, Mit he had never been atteiled as a lol-

he only acted as a Recruiting Serjeant.—Ruk for

The defendant was brought' into Court, having
been conviaed of atfaulting j. Greenwood: by the
report of the Learned Judge, it appeared, that the
profecutor had fummonea the defendant to the
Court of Requelts for a demand which was die.
pitted. On that occafion an altercation ertfued in
Court. the defendant faid the plaintiff was no Gen-
tleman for filch condua. This produced the re-
tort untourteaste ; and, laflly, the defendant pulled
the plaintiff 14 the nofe. For this affault he pre-
ferred his bill of indiEtment, and removed it into

the King's Bench.
Mr. Lamas, in behalf of the defendant, hav-
ing addreffed.the CoUrt,
Mr. Janice GROSti in (miffing fentence,
ferved, that the crime of the defendant was greatly
aggravated by having been committed in a Court
of -Janice ; at the fame time the condua of the
profecutor had alfo been finch as to entitle him to
no favour. The Court, therefore, would nut al.
low him his cons. The fentence upon the de•
Pendant was, that he ihould pay a fine of 51. and
be imprifoned till it was paid.

NOVEMBER. 25.
Mr, Serjeant COCKELL moved to file a crimina,
information againft Sir Frederick Vane, Bart. for
an aflault upon an attorney of the name of Ben.
fon. The affidavits Rated, that at the laft affizes
for the County of Cumberland, held at Carlifle,
there was an ejectment cattle depending, where it
was of great confequence for one of the parties to
infpea the rolls of a manor, of which Sir Frede-
rick is Lord. He refufed an application for this
purpofe, and, by the advice of Counfel, was there-
fore ferved with a fubprena duces tau" Upon this
his Steward wrote a letter to Mr. Benfon, the at-
torney. Rating how very inconvenient it would be
for him to be detained till the affixes were over at
Carlifle. Mr. Benfon returned.for anfwer, that he
Humid confult his client, and after Wards gave no.
rice that Sir Frederick Vane was at liberty to so
if he left the rolls of his Court Baron behind him
for infpation. The caufe was accordingly tried.
But the day after the affizes were over, Mr. Benfon
and a friend were travelling in a pott chaife to
Wigton. When they were a few miles di flaw from
this place, Sir Frederick came up at a furious gal-
lop and rode on before them. When they arrived
at the inn they faw him (landing at the door, al-
though that was not the houfe at which he ufually
puts up, and although when he met them he was
travelling in a different direCtion. He immediately
run up to Mr. Benfon, who was then under a fit
of the gout; (truck him feveral violent blows, and
exclaimed, " You are a rafcal. You openly
infulted me in the ftreets of Carlifle, by making
your fon deliver me a fubpcena with a Chilling."--
Rule Nil granted.
Mr. ERSKINE made a fimilar motion again*
Major James Chrißie, for a libel upon N. C. Bur-
ton, an Officer in the Guards, and a Member of
Parliament. Burton, in his affidavit, Rated, that
he was eldeft fon of General Gabriel Burton, who
had died a year or two ago, leaving him his exe-
cutor. Among other bequefts in the General's
will was, that soool. fhould be paid to his natural
fon, James Chrittie, or fhould he vetted in the
funds for his ufe, he being regularly allowed the
dividends. The deponent having gone out to Ca-
nada, to cone& his father's ettate, took the opi-
nion of Counfel, upon his return, with regard to
the legacy to his natural brother, and, by their
advice' laid out the acool. at intereft. He loon
after had notice that Major Chriftie had taken ad-
vantage of the Infolvent Debtors' An, and that
his creditors were entitled to this annuity. He
accordingly paid what became due punctually to
the affignees till January lag. As Mr. Chrißie
was fo nearly related to him, he had repeatedly
relieved him from his difficulties. Neverthelefs a
bill was filed awing him in the Court of Chancery,
calling upon him for payment of the legacy. Ge-
neral Burton afterwards read in a newipaper cal-
led The Oracle, a paragraph to the following effect
Much as we admire the learning, abilities and
integrity of Lord Eldon, we cannot at this mo-
ment envy him his elevated fituation, as, in the
enfuing term he will fee a melancholy fpeCtacle
will he difclofed. General Burton has allowed his
brother, Major Chriftie, to be in gaol there lie
years for a debt of pool. and although Major
Chtiftie was left 2occl. by his father's will,nn part
of this lum has General Burton yet paid. To ob-
tain redrefs for fuck injuflice, Major Chriftie is
therefore driven to appear before the Chancellor."
By the affidavit of the Printer, it appeared that
this paragraph had been wrote by Major Chrillic,
and that he had undertaken to be antwerable for
it. This was no common libel, as General Burton
was in a high ftation,which required that he fhould
be free from fufpicion of dittionour. It was like.
wife an attempt to inf!nence the Judge, and to pre-
vent the due adminiitration of juilice.
Lord ELLENsoaouc H defired that the Printer's
affidavit should be read. This Rated, that the pa-
ragraph was brought to him by Major Chrittie
and another gentleman, with whom he was well
acquainted; that be was rather (tattled at its con-
tents, and aficed if they were true ? that he was
anfwered that it contained nothing but what was
ftrietly true, and might be fafely publifhed • and
that before contenting to infert it he made idajor
Chrillis fign a paper, confeffing that he was the
author of it, and that he would be refponfible.
LORD ELLINBOROUGH laid, he had no doubt at
all that this was a proper cafe for an information;
the queftion with him was, whether the Court
fhould interfere when the immediate object of the
mifchief was to be fcrcened 1 He had demanded
