COURT OF XING'S BENCH, MAY 23.

This day the Sittings at Nisi Prius commenced be-
fore Lord Chief Justice ELLENBOROUGH, at Guildhall.

SHAW V. ABRAHAMS.
The parties were both employed by the East India
Company, to procure seamen, commonly cal I d Crimps,
and it appeared, that in the month of February last,
the defendant had a tall sailor in tow,. which the
plaintiff wished to get from him ; some very,abusive
language ensued between them, when the defendant
struck the plaintiff over his left eye, and the contusion
was so violent, he was obliged to have surgical aid for
a fortnight, the Doctor's bill amounting to £l. 6s.
Lord ELLEMBOROUGH observed to the Jury, that it
appeared the plaintiff had improperly interfered with
the defendant in the first instance, but that would not
justify the blow. However, if they should think the
plaintiff had provoked the blow with a view to the
present action, the smallest damages they could give,
would justify the case.
The Jury, after some consultation, found a verdict
for the plaintiff, damages Fifty Shillings and costs; •

COURT OF COMMON PI.EAS, MAY €25.
PEARCE V. LLOYD.
This was an action on a bill of exchange for E 65.
. Upon an investigation of the case, however, it ap-
peared that a man named Jenkins Evans having been
suspected of a felony, was taken into custody, and his
property taken possession of by the officers. Appre-
hending, as afterwards turned out to be the fact, that
be'should be tonvictedt and that his property would
be forfeited to the King, he made an assignment of
the property seized to the present defendant, Lloyd,
who was his brother-in-law, with a view to his re-
gaining possessiOn of it, in order that it might be ap-
propriated to the benefit of Mrs. Evans, The.plain-
tiff, who lodged in the same house with defendant,
having heard of the transaction said, if the property was
assigned over to him, he would be able to get it with
snore facility, as well as, perhaps, to get a greater
proportion than defendant expected. Defendant, who
was an ignorant coal-heaver, agreed to the proposi-
tion, and signed what he conceived to be an instru-
ment of assignment, but what in reality turned out to
be the promissory nose on which the present action
was instituted ; for which, it appeared, plaintiff newt-
gave any value, nor did he, as he promised, make
any'recovery whatever cf the goods which had been
forfeited.—Plaintiff non s uited.

DANIEL ISAAC EATON stood in the pillory yester-
day, in pursuance of his sentence by the Court of
King's Bench, for publishing a Third Part of Paine's
Age of Reason. A hand-bill, describing him to be
a sufferer for theiLiberty of the Press, was circulated
among the crowd, who cheered him during his pu-
nishment.
MANSION House.—Saturday a genteel young man,
who had undergone a private examination a few
days since, charged wit:► stealing above £l2OO in
Bank-notes from a banking-house, where he acted as
a clerk, was again put to the bar. It appeared upon
the prisoner being suspected and taken into custody,
be confessed the robbery, and told where most of the
money was deposited, which was in the chest of .4
young woman whom he associated with, and-where
Chamberlain the officer found above £llOO, which
produced. The young woman was likewise de-
tained in custody, but no proof appearing of her
knowledge of the money being stolen, she was dis-
charged. The male prisoner was remanded for fur-
ther examination.
Yesterday Mary Miller surrendered herself at the
Mansion-House, to take her examination, ou suspicion
•f being concerned in a robbery to the amount of
£l5OO, committed upon a Suffolk drover, named
Whitton, a short time since. Mr. Whitton had re-
:gaped himself to the soft caresses of two Cyprian
.dartisels, who conducted him to a temple of ill-lame,
in Still-alley, where, after his dream of bliss was over,
he found his pocket had been despoiled of a pocket.

amount of about £l5OO. The fair penitent was reman-
ded till Mr. W. can come to town.
GUJLDHALL.--Yesterday W. Edmunds, aged l 3
years, was charged by his master, Mr. Wilkinson, ha-
berdasher, of St. Paul's Church-yard, on suspicion i

•
of lobbing him of goods to the amount of £lloo.
Mr. Wilkinson stated, that the prisoner had honestly
, .
delivered fix him a variety of goods to a considerable
value at different times. On Saturday last he sent
him to deliver at different places in the north-west
end of the town ribbons; laces, kc. to the amount of
£1100; but in the evening he returned and stated,
that he had been stopped and robbed of the property
by a man, in the neighbourhood of Riissell-square.
Mr. Wilkinson then thought it necessary 'to bring
him before the Alderman. The boy still, however,
persisted in the same story, and was ordered to be sent
to his father's, until further enquiries can be made
into the transaction.
' The Comr ittee of the • Stock Exchange have,
