STAR OFFE:F., FOUR O'CLOCK.

It is very currently reported in e e City, and at the
West End of the To n also, that great part of Pais
was burnt on Sunday night by the Prussian moors',
in consequence of the maltreatment of some of their
brave comrades.

We know not the precise foundation of this rumour,
and of course do not vouch for its accuracy. The
report is prevalent, however, among the Members of
the Russian and Prussian Legations now in London,
as well as in other parts of London.

A Flanders Mail arrived this morning ; the occu-
pation cf Paris by the Allies, renders its conten,s un-
interesting. Valenciennes held out on the 6,11, and
the inhabitants were experiencing much misery fr.►m
the obstinacy of the Bonapartist:.
The Packet list made up daily at the Post:o%ce,
London, has this morning (July 12) the iollowing
mph :
" The M4lll for France will in future be male up and d*-
patched .14 beretotore." _ _ _

Accounts have been received from Carthagena of
the defeat of the Algerine fleet by the American squa-
dron under Commotbre DICCATUK. The action,
which took place on the 20th of June, lasted two
hours. The Algerine frigate Mezoura, of 40 guns, is
taken and carried into Carthagena. She was comman.
ded by the Admiral of Algiers, who was killed. Next
morning, between one and two o'clock, another Alge-
rine frigate was driven on shore by the Americans,
near St. Xavier, three leagues to the east of Cartha-
gena. The crew escaped on shore, and were pursued
by the Sparish peasants, who had taken some of
them when the accounts came away. A corvette
was chased, and would probably be taken.
Conti EXCHANGE, JULY 12. Having hut few
buyers of Wheat at market this morning, very little
business was done, but our prices remain the same
as on Monday.—Barley continues to go off in small
quantities for grinding, upon the same terms as the
last day.—Peas and leans are dull sale, but g 0...:

' LAW ATII'LLIG.RNCE.

CONSISTORY COURT, DOCTORS' COMMONS. '
. . (Ai YN V. wiLLSIIEII.
This was a proceeding tela:ive to the validity af
the will of. Mr. Charles Willsher, of the Commercial-
road, Middlesex, deceased.
He died in Febru Ai y, 1814, leaving a will made in
the month of June, 1813. It gave all his property
to Isis housekeeper, Mrs. Susawrtah Chyn, and ap-
pointed her sale executrix, with one shillinc,e each to
his wife and daughters, the former of whom comes.
ted its validity by ,the present proceeding.
It appeared that the deceased was a livery stable.
keeper in the Commercial.road. He had lived sepa-
rate from his wife for several years, and latterly ex-
pressed his intention of making a will to the effect of
the one in question. Some time prior to its being
executed, he, in conversation with Mr. John Gitfotd,
a friend of his, observed that he had got a Mr.
Wade to scratch out a will los him ; but that he
wanted it copied, and would wish him (Giff(ird) to
get it done for him. Gifford assented ; but beiti
unable to write hinitelf, h., by the directions of the
deceased, got ass acquaintance of his to make three
copies of the will, ittii deliverei them to theidecea.
sett. He kept them for some time; but on the day
the one in question was executed, Gifford, having
called upon the deceased, was desired by him to walk
lip into his p trlour over the stable-yard to finish his
will, which he accordingly did. The copies were
then produced, and the tte:eased again expressed his
intention of leasing all he had to his housekeeper,
Mrs. Chyn, as she was justly entitled to it, for . 1.1(
her property was mixed with his own, and she had
helped him to what he had ; and if lie left it to
his wife and slaughters, it would only be spent in riot
and debauchery, and he would therefore leave them
no more than the law would rillnw them, which he
seemed. to conceive was a Shilling. Upon undeistand-
ing that another witness was necessary, the demised
fetched a Mr. James Bass, a baker in the neighbaur-
hood, and the will was then duly executed by the de..
,ceased, and attested by Bass and Gifford. The de..'
ceased died in consequence of an accident he met
with; but the witnesses denied, on their cross.exasill,
nation, that his capacity W4l at all affected, or that
they had ever expressed themselves to have been ig.
nos ant of what they signed, air doubtful of its lega-.
lity, &c.—No further evidenee was offered, and
Sit WILLIAM Seam expressed himself .perfectly
satisfied with the proof of the will, and 'accordingly
pronouesced for its validity.
DEAN AND CHAPTER OF't ES MINSTER'S COURT.
IiUMISALL V. nUMBALL.
This was a proceeding for a divorce, at the in.
stance of Susanna,-the wite of Mr. Thomas Rumball,
of St. Martin's.lesGrand, against him, on the ground
I at crueity.
It appeared that they were married on the 2.1 of
December, 1809, and had one child. The cruelty
complained of originated at no great distance of time
from the marriage, in abusive and threatening lan-
guage,•and this subsequently led to persanal viotencv,
she first material act of which was deposed to as
having taken place on the 22d of January, 1811.—,
Upon that occasion, a servant in the adjoining house,
hearing tars. Rumba!! scream viu!entiy, looked
through a window commanding a view of Mr. Runt-
ball's parleur, and saw Mrs. Rumbell lying on th
floor, Mr. Rumball's son, by a former wife,. holding
her down, and he beating her about the head with
his fist; and upon her getting tip, he threw the arm
of a chair, which had keen broken off, at her, and
cot her forehead, when she fell, and remained ins-It-
sible for some time. This account was cerrobereoid
by a person of the name of Howard, who had gone
Into Mr. RUMb.ill'S shop to purchase something, and
hearing tl:e cry of murder, approached the parlour-
door from wheats it proceeded ; and Mrs. Rumba!!,
, who observed him through a, window between it and
the shop, cried out, 44 For GOD'S sake, Mr. Howard,
come in, or he will murder ate." Mi. Howard rent
in, anti found her held by the father and son, aced all
over Wood. He observed to them, ,g Gana Got, !
you'll murder the woman." To which Mr. Ruin-
ball repired,,;.o shiciow a dead b—h, and he v ished
, he batl. "—Mr. id remoastrated, and a Leon).
Mended a separation. A sea vant brought some wa-
ter, which Mrs. Rumball was proceeding to drink,
when her husband came behind her, and gave her a
*lent blow on the head, which disfigured her face,
and caused her to bleed very much. Mr. Ramsden,
, the surgeon, and another medical gentleman attended,
.• and considered her in danger. Upon her recovery,
she preferred a bill of indictment against her husband
for the assault, but subsequently abandoned it on a
reconciliation taking place. Their renewed inter-
• course, Insaever, did not last long. Fresh cruelty
took place; and one night in particular, in the month
of February, 181% when she was in a state of preg-
nancy, he kicked her out of- bed. fier screams
rimmed tho watchman, who entered the house, and
,finding her on the flour in a state of great agitation
and alarm' assisted in composing ber, and she re.
turned to bed. Shit was soon afterwards brought to
bed, and upon this occasion her husband behaved
with great harshness, and denied her ineny things ne-
cessery for her situation. Several minor acts of
truelty were charged, and some of them proved, and
he was held to bail to keep the peace tcwards her;
but she subsequently left the house, and instituted the
present suit.
No evidence was offered on the part of Mr. Rum.
ball ; but his Counsel contended that the cruelty
• principally relied on was prior to the reconciliation,
and consequently done away with by it; and he en-
deavoured to raise an inference from the evideac:,
that the only acts of a sufficiently serious nature to
warrant a sentence of divorce might have originated
in mutual contests, in which either or both parties
migin have been to blame. He therefore contended
that the case was not that grievous one in which the
remedy prayed could be granted.
The Judge (Dr. &Wailer) entered into an exami-
nation of the evidence, and was of opinion, that
though all the facts charged had not been proved,
yet there was a sufficiency to warrant the sentence
prayed ; and that if the principal acts of outrage had
been of the nature suggested on the part of Mr. Rum-
bail, he might, and undoubtedly would have dream
them to he w by evidence on his part. Not • having
done so, the Cigna was bound to take them as they
appeased, and apply the legal relileslY•
The sentence ut divorce was signed accord:4"v
i

and forty pounds per anistim decteed as alimony to
thevite, the lin,band's income appearing to be about
NITO per annum.

• WINCHESTER ASSIZES, /111.1' 7.
THE KING V. DAMON AND GRAHAM.

This was an information filed by his Majesty's
AT-
TnItNF:Y GHNEILAL against the defendants, tor a fraud
!vocal Government. It appeared that the defendant,
Mr. Horton. WAS fr•on the year 1807 till April last,
Assistant Quarter Master at the Army Depot, iii the
kle of Wight, ;lad, as such, had the expenditure of
wveral sums of the public money, which he drew
from the Chief Paymaster as often as the service it-
goirei. • The defend in!, Mr. Graham, was Chief
Clerk in the Paroastei's Office, and by the conspi-
racy of the two the fraud was effected. Theie were
two distinct species of fraud aUeged in the informa-
tion & Ow first related to the sums paid by defendant
liottoit ton t!,e of clothing of soldiers ; aed
it appears that Gov_Trtment allows 2s. 6J. per Inc!
for the aLeration of e.:ch suit of clothes--that in two

instances, ia 1807, t'.ere were alterations of clothio4,
vii. fur Hike of the 27th regiment, which aniotp.-
ted to aCI. `2s, tid and fur '2O men of the 66‘11 ref,;l..
neut. which amounted to R 2. 10s. The account of
this WAS made op by Horti‘n, and irregularly deli.
vered at the Pay ntwer's Office ; there an abstract of
the whole account was made out, which it was the
duty of Hot ton to sip. and Graham to examine ;
and being so exatzine,f, it was delivered t another
clerk at the Pa) I/lAb Qr'S Office to enter, first into the
general ptihiic ledor, 111.. n into the re3imental ledg..t,
from thcpce into the pay liar, front which last the
lists to Government were made up. Nov, it ap-
peated that Graham altered the abstract, by insertine
therein 49. 'L. 6d. and *l2 10s. instead of los.

The,e entries were, in their alteradstate, so cop;ed in
the suhsequent ruffles, and c nsequently li itvn ob-
tained the larger stuns of Government, instead of the
smaller sums, which he had actually expended ; and,
notwithstanding, it appeared that the accounts were
ri gularly examin:d and chequed by the Deputy Pay-
master, yet in nicely WAS the contrivance effected,
that it escapid detection ; for before the lasts were
sent to Government, Graham erased the false sums in
the regisnental ledger, and the lists were transmuted
with the correct stuns. The second species of ffausl
related to larger sums ; and it appeared that when
sums of £l5 I (is was the ease in several instances)
were paid to Horton, then, alter the entries cf these
sums had been tegulaly ezatnined by the Deputy-
PaTmaster, and found correct, the amounts were re-
duced in his account in the Paymaster's Office, by the
erasure, by Graham, of the Brat fit;ure, or by the al-
teration to I ; and in one instance there was a pay-

ment of 4.13,1 which was reduced to 8260, by erasing
the 3 and inserting a 2 i:hte.td ; this 2 was proved to
be in Graham's writing. By means of these altera-
tions the amount paid to Horton was considerably re•
duced, and the consecrence was, that when Horton
witled his accounts, from time to time. as QlLti ter-
Master, he had monies to receive, when, in tact, he
was considerably in debt. We cannot state the par-
ticulars of this nefarious fraud, as they were detailed
by Mr. Serjeant PELL, f.r the Crown, and substan-
tiated by the most complete evidence. It was a tratid
most inh.eniously connived, effected by the most con-
sJrnmate skill and addres.,,, so as to rencitr it next to
impossible to discover it—it was, altogether, os tlit
Ines, singular and most coinpiicated nature.
Mr. &locum made a very ingenious defence, and
called witnesses, who sp.ke to the character of Mr.
Horton as having been, till this transaction, that ot art
honest upright man that there was not evidence to
connect the two defendants in the transaction ;—and
therefore they could not be convicted of a compiracy.
The Learned Judge, in his summing up, stated to
the Jury that there was a clear intention to defraud
the King, by a demand on the funds in the Pay-
master's hinds for -the public service—that it was
quite clear that Hort,:ii hid obtained monies to a con-
siderable amount, and it the two agreed, then they
were joint actors, and guilty ot a conspiracy.—The
July (whi7li was Special), without a moment's
hesi-
't.►tu+n, found both defetaiants Guilty.—They will be
brought up for judgnient in the Court ot King's
Bench next Term.—'lltere was a second information
against the parties, which was withdrawn by the So-
-1 cit.,r of the Crown, as the parties were convicted in
the first.

Ju •the Crim;n4 Court an indictment was preferred
against Mr. Horton. under the statute against obtain.
mg money under false pretences; for having delivered
to the Deputy Paymaster a false and fraudulent Ac-
count of monies expended by him (Horton), tor the
embarkation of troops in !NB, and thereby obtained
a stim of RIO° more than he had expended. The caw
was clearly proved, and the Jury found the defendant
Guilty. He WAS setitt.nced to revels years transportation.

In the Irish Court of King's Bench an action came
to, be tried on Nionday, the $d inst. for damages laid
at ACIOOO, by•wbich the Proprietor of The Dublin
Evening Part sou.:ht a compensation for penalties
suffered by him iu cAtserusetice of a conviction for a
libtl contained in a report of a speech of Mr. 04Gon-
MAN, a leading Irish Catholic Barrister, which report
was stated and sworn to have been furnished by Mr.
U‘GormAs himself. After the greater part of the
Plaintiff's case had been gone, through, the Counsel
on both sides agreed to reser the matter to a Gentle-
man mutually deemed eligible. It was accordingly
referred to Mr. G. LIDWELL. Another action brought
by Mr. O‘GonstAN against The Dalin Evening Parr
was referred at the same time.
