fian Charge d'Aftsires at Paris, lent an order to St.
Anerfleurgh, to his Mintier there, to quit Raffia,
boat taking leave, and that Tette AAAAA had
feat his paffes to the Ruffian Charge d'Affaires, in•
finning him that his flay in France would be dif-

by an American Gentleman who left Paris on the
atwhieb period the proclamation of BOMA aaaaa ,
as Emperor, had been decreed to take place on
the soda, all over France; orders having been
lent by extra couriers, and by the telegraphs.to that

a feral plan fora peace, that the good Parifians es.
gaited yehs Bad would be able to go over to France
to fee Bo aaaaa TS'S coronation, which report had

Mr. Laviaorros has publilbed his opinion of our
country and of our councils, in an abufive pamphlet,
again; the Tyra* q the Sear, and in his late anfwer
to Tatter aeon, upon the labia" of the pretended
oserelpondence of Mr. Dials, which we hope our
Unifiers will not forget.
This morning arrived a Mail from New York and
Halifax, brought to Falmouth by the Panic.
ADOLPHUS packet in feventeen days from the latter
place. The American Papers received by this con-
veyance, contain the following particulars relative to
the operations, of the enemy's tquadron in the Eall
Indies : _ _

" BOSTON, APRIL 21.--Captain METRICK, who
arrived here yefierday from Batavia, in the (hip In-
dus, informs, that a French fquadron of one 74, two
frigates, and the corvette Berceau (probably that
commanded by Admiral Linois), failed from Batavia
the Bth December; which previous to the arrival of the
ladas had deftroyed the Englifts pepper magazines at
Zencoolen ( n the ifland of Sumatra), to the amount
it was Paid, of from is to zo,ooo picols : and that
the fame fquadron bad captured an Englifh (hip at
Bei.coolen, with a valuable cargo of Calcutta and
Madras goods, and fent ber to the Ifle of France."
" Aram 25. By a frt.& arrival from the Ifle of
France, we have a confirmation of the deflruaion
by the French fquadron under Admiral Lixots, of
the Englillt depot of pepper in Bencoolen, and that
the Englifh have received poffeffion of Pondicherry
and its dependencies on the man of Coromandel.
't'hc ftations of the Britilh fquatirons are on the coati

of Malabar and Coromandel. The Britifh force in

the Indian Seas, under Admiral RAIN'S', is cosh-
pored of fix fail of the fine, three 5o and 44 gun

!hips, nine frigates, and nine (loops of war.
,g The laten accounts of the Dutch and French
fquadrons in the Indian Seas [Fate, that they had di-
vided their forces ; one part of which had failed for
Batavia, and the other for Bombay River.
" The French Admiral Limots only left iso men
in polfeflion of Pondicherry, who could offer but
little refinance to the Brian' force which went againft
and retook it."

Other accounts Rate that when Admiral Limon

appeared off Fort Marlborough in the latter end of
December lak, the Commiffioner, who has charge of

the Government there, caufed all the public and

private (lore' to be deftroyed, and retreated with the
Britith inhabitants up the country ; and that Dams,
not thinking the fettlement of fufficient confequence
to detain him, left the Wand, and is generally fop-

poled to have gone in purfuit of the China fleet.
The Philadelphia Papers of the ad of kit month
give the following interelling intelligence rt4eaing

Martinique—. ,
" On Saturdiy evening laik arrived here, the brig
Ann, Captain Logo; from Martinique, which place
he left the sloth of February. He. informs, that he
arrived there on the toth of January; a the courfe
of fifteen days arrived five American vefrels, but
none afterwards. On the ad of February the Britilh
feat eight boats into Fort Royal, and cut out the ►rig
Curious, of 26 guns, and eighty men on board, ready
to fail for France the neat day ; the Captain General
had taken his paffage on board to go to France.—
The Captain of the brig was on board• and sac his
efeape out of the cabin windows, fwarn on lore, mut
the neat day the wounded men were fent on Owe in
a flag of truce. On the gd of February the Britt&
landed five hundred men on the S. W. end of Marti

pique, who were repaired by two hundred
ten of the French were killed, and eight or ten
wounded: fix Englithmen were found dead the next
morning. On the 6th the Britilk lent a cutter
fchooner into Part Royal Bay. fuppofed as a fpy to
view the harbour ; the Era Riot from the fort hat
her to*. bottom ; fifteen awns made their .(cape in
the boat, as we are informed, and .forty-five went
down with the red.& On the Bth, there was an
Eoglilh (choosier croffing the Bay of St. Pierre. as
we are informed by a Danifh vetch that had 65 men
on board, as the was in company with her, by "mi.
dent fame fire got to her magazine, and (be blew up
at eleven A. IL not one of the crew fared. The
&kith Commodore fent a proclamation fence thole
accidents happened, and declared the ifland in a Rate
of liege ; he has called all his forces from Guada-
loupe to furronnd the Mend, and has erceed two
batteries on the Diamond Rock end, on the South
Weft part of the Ulan& and anchors his Blips there.
He has at anchor three Blips on the N. W. fide, under
the lee of the Pearl Rocks, and has declared that he
will take every thing at tea, great or fens% he can
lay hold of, and has deftroyed a number of country
boats coming with produce. The French have taken
the private Degrees from the plantations to creft bat-
teries in every place on the ifland where a boat can
land. The inhabitants are determined to keep them
off, if it is in their power ; the number of military
troops on the Mod are smoo militia under arms."
Accounts from Aux Cayes, dated March 18, from
an American, Bate as follows :—" On our palTage
we met with leveret privateers, and tome we were
obliged to fight our way through. The Blacks here
Bill continue to kill all the French Whites, men. wo
men, and children. Yeiterday they picked up 7s of
thefe unfortunate people, and left night the whole of
them were maffacred. No white perfon of any na-
tion dare be feels out after (even o'clock in the even-
ing. Three days ago a French privateer ran albore,
a (mall dillance from this place; the Blacks com-
pelled the French Captain to hang his whole clew,
6o in number, and then to be his own executioner.
The French have infiruiled the Blacks in Idiom of
blood, and they gave proved apt fcholars. Since
this lea alTaifination, the French have (worn to take
all veflels trading with the Blacks, and to put their
crews to death. One American crew have already
met this fate, and it is not known where this bloody
bulinefs will end."
The French General Lavoissr has demanded of
the Spanifb Governor of Cuba 40,000 dollars, to
maintain the French fugitive troops there. This
demand being refilled. Lavnixtr declared that he
would not be accountable for the condu.l of his peo-
ple, and the Spanifh troops have beep ordered to at.
reit fuch as commit creeftes.
A letter from Cape Francois, dated February :sth,
fays—" There are three Britifh frigates, a 74, and
three (mailer velfsl4, cruizing between this, Cape
Nichola Mule, and Cape Moire. French privateers
(warm in the neighbourhood of the Cape, and board
every vac' which they fuppofe contains Bores or
provifions for the Haytians, many of whom they tap..
ture. The Blacks have fitted out leveret privateers,
and are very &Sive in endeavouring to make reprifala
on the enemy."
Refpeeing Surinam the American papers contain
the following paragraph :
„On the t sth April the fchooner Topfbam Beauty,
Captain Souses, arrived at Glouceßer in thirty days
from Surinam. We learn that a Britifb fleet was at
the mouth of Surinam river with troops. and had
demanded the furrender of the Colony ; that the
Governor had refufed to fubmit to the Englifk, and
exp►effed his determination to defend the place as
long as poffible ; and that in confequcnce of the an-
• Ewer arrangements were making for a vigorous at-
tack on the place."
Captain SMART, of the fchooner Performance, ar-
rived at New York horn Surinam, informs that pre-
vious to his failing, an attempt was made by Captain
Mac !tamale, and fifty men belonging to an Englifh
cruizer in the Roads, to cut the Commodore's (hip
out of the harbour ; but the expedition failed, and
Come of the men were taken priconers.

We are happy to Rate, that a confident hope may
be entertained of the fafety of the crew of the Cato,
which (hip we mentioned Conte time mice to have
been loft in the China Seas.—A Botany Bay paper

of September 18, has brought a particular account
of the 'ors of his Majeßy's armed 'del the Pet-
rone and Cato, upoa Wreck Reef:
The PORPOIII, commanded by Lieutenant Foy!.
est, in company with the Cato, Captain Pau, and
Bridgwater, were on their paffage from New South
Wales to Chia& On the tyth of Aural the. Pot-
POISE filliCk On a coral reef of rocks, 208 miles to the
north call of Sandy Cape, 7d5 =Res kern Sighs',

. .
Cove, New South Wales. in lit. Os deg. min. S.
and long. 155 deg. 35 min. rse, The waves running
highs the Turf foon broke ovdthe !hip, and in a
Awn time carried away her force:waft therfittuition
of the (hip foon rendered it alsfointely neeeffary to
cut away her other mans. The Cato was not able
to avoid the rocks, and truck foon after. The Stu-

atinn of the crew on board the Cato was moftdif.
tmffing: the violence of the wain loon carried away
the malts, and- the had net long Bruck before the fea
broke up her decks,. and carried alinoft every thing
away. The only place left for the crew was within the
forechaim, to which they clung in the moft perilous
Rats during the whole lithe night, the fea rasping
mmaritains high, expelling their dettmfgen every
iniant.
In the morning they perceived the Bridgwater
Bering her conrfetaft, to avoid the rocks r—which
e fortunately did,' and was lolt fight of the best
day. During the day, Captain teanneas, who lately
commanded the- Inveitigator, and who was a paffene
ger on board the PORPOISI, with the *Silence of
Lieut. Foam'', launched one of the boats bellinging
to the Poirot St ; and, the weather moderating, Inc.
ceeded in relieving the crew of the Cato, who ITS
landed on a &tall land bank at no great diftance,
felon after which the ails went to pieces. ?he crew
of the PORPOISI likewife landed on the land bank,
and feveral days were (pent in getting peevilions and
covering from the (hip.
The crews of both !hips fucceeded in obtaining a
rapply of provifions, atc. for about three months,
and the tide falling, left them a large proportion of
dry land.
On the 36th of Auguß, it was agreettopott that
Captain Ft r and Captain Peas &mid launch,
the fix oared cutter that had been laved, and !leer
for New South Wales, in larch of affiftance. They
accordingly rowed off from the fend bank on that
day, and took with them twelve men, and three
weeks proviflons. On their going off the illand, the
colours, which were boifted union downwards, were
reverted, and their companionsgave them three cheers.
The cutter artrived off Indian Head, New South
Wales, on the 38th of Anglia, all well ; and Capt.
Fcu gave the above intelligence to his Excel
lency the Governor of New South Wales. ,with the'
addition that he left his companions, about eighty in
number, with three months provilions. Very little
doubt was entertained but they would all be faired;
the Governor had given 'direetions for veffels to go in
&arch of the crew. On the 9th of September, when
the left accounts came away, no further intelligence
bad been received. The weather was then moderate.
The condud of the officers and crew, on the above
melancholy occation, merits the bigheft encomiums.
By letters from the Cape it appears confiderable
apprehenfions were entertained for the fafety of his
Majefty's Hoop of war RATTL ttttt 2, RS (he was
fuppofed to have fallen in with the enemy.
The following Dutch line of battle (hips were at

Bauo, 74 guns, Captain Mazvizze, together with
leveret frigates, in Very good order.
The above (hips, it was generally underfinod, were
Ihortly to fail from the Cape, to cruize off the ifland
of St. Helen where, it is apprehended, they will
do confiderable mifchief. Six thoufand troops were
expeded at the Cape from France.
A letter from Honduras, dated the !7th of March,
t Boa, (fates, that the following (hips were expeded
to fail for England, about the azd of that month,

This was an informal icn imputing to the defendant

Reeler of the sth of November, and the loth of
December, 1803, calculated to excite ill-will and
barred among his Majefty's fubjeas, by infinuating
that Ireland was ill-gaverned. The information
charged the defendant generally with wilfully libel.

Extras% were alfo read, imputing to Lord Redef-
dale certain motives of fell interell, in making an
order by which the Secretary to the Mailer of the
Rolls in Ireland was virtually prevented from con-
tinuing to receive certain fees of office, which were
transferred to the Chancellor's Secretary, that fame
fecret annuitant, a dependant of his Lordfhip's,
might participate ; and a charge delivered by Judge
OSBORNE to the Grand Jury, in which he is Elated to
have prailed the flrenuous escrtions, wifdom, and

L.-vadiide pourd on •he rrur4. Mr. Marfden was alfo
accUred of voratit.;-. The letters from which thefe
extraOs were made, were ligned Jut,/ Rra A.
Mr. AOS ri defended Mr. Cubhett, upon the broad
ground, that he had exercifed a fair legitimate right,
in canvidling the imbecilities of men entreated with
Government of their cowry, and that it was a
every Br itifh bbjeft potfeff:J. Without the

tight of free dircuffion, he added, ourboaftedliberty
would be as nothing ; and, to ufe the words of Mr.
Hume, as the right had originated with the Revolu-
tion that gave liberty to Englifhmen, lo would that
liberty have an end, when the right was deftroyed or
taken away. The learned Counfel then went into a
panegyric upon the talents of Mr. Cobbett, ahom he
defcribed as a vigorous and uncontrouled writer, but
at the fame time a (launch lend and advocate of the
Conftitution, and a lover of his King and country.
He next combated the arguments of the Attorney
General, as applied to the pafrages Welted as libel-
lous, and contended, as they were inveftigations
arifing out of the political charatlers of the Gentle-
men to whom the obirrvations applied, they were
not fubjea to the animadverfions of the law.
Mr. ADAM then called Mr. Litton, late Bra);
Minifter in America I alfo Lard Henry Stuart, Lord
Minto, Mr. Windham. Mr. Yorke, and Mr. Reeves ;
who all agreed, that Mr. Cobbett was a man who had
given an uninterrupted (cries of proofs of his attach.

,his 00.,a0

veneration for his Sovereign. _

The ATTORMIII G replied; when
Lord ELLSWEOROUGH obferved, that it lutd:neen
truly laid that she law of England bad eisfranchtled
the Preis. No preliminary licence was necerarf to
citable a perfon to print, and every perfon wroteand
publithed at hi. own tint ; but if he did it to the pre-
jpdice of another, then he was guilty of a libel: The
Aims, therefore, was, had the Defendant publifised'
any thing that was calculated to inflame, give pain, or
prove 'Denims to individuals: and if he had, and the
publicatson was libellous, did it militate agaioft the
general Mien& of the country, by drawing into ha-
tred and contempt his biakfly's Government, and
by fo doing tend alienate the affeEtions ofhis people?
If fo, the Defendant was guilty of a crime. It was
no matter how it was effened, if by ridicule or other-
wife. Whether erupt up in one form or another, the
poifon was the fame; and had been fo fettled by the
greaten Expulsion of the Law : Among them he
might mention Lord Holt, who in the Q.2cen o.
Touchey, had dillinelly laid down, that the writing
which was ddamatory of an individualor of a country,
was a libel. The Jury would, therefore, afk them-
(elves, if the writing in quenion was of that defa-
matory nature, and decide accordingly. His Lord.
Ihip then commented upon the pillage let forth in
the information, and left it to the Jury to fay, whe-
ther or not the writings were libellous?
The jury thought they were, and found the de-
fendant—Guilty.

This was an indiOment againft the Defendant, fon
tie the Governor of Swat, for fending a challenge to •
the Right Honourable Mr. Wickham. From the
finteaseut of Mr. Eakins, (imported by the evidence
of Mr.Wiekham, it appeared that he bad taken under
his motes:lion a young gentleman of the name of
Flint, who married a lifter of the Defendant. The
• young couple remained in Mr.Wiekhanes beaks and
he. was one of the tram* under their marriage fee
dement. The Defendant having retorned from Andis.
was issited to Mr. Wielding', • inhere be mmained*,
week. and was hapitably treated. differencep
moaned in Mr. fleatotee funny. asZeMr. W. ad•
vifed Mr. and Mrs. Flint not by any !neaps to interfere
in. After the Defendant bad returned to his flip
which was to convey him to India again, he wrote to
Mr. Wickham, laying he had heard he had advifed
Mr. and Mrs. Flint to ufe cocieive xneafures to turn
hint out of his father's houfe, and be de fired an expla-
nation of his condue in having done fo. Mr. W. re-
plied, that he bad given them no advice but what was
in confidence as their truflee, and be could enter into
no explanation on the labial. The Defendant wrote
feeeralintemperateletters,andatlaftfentachallengeby
Major Morgan. For this; conduit a criminal informa-
tion was moved againft him ; but, upon his 'polo.
sizing, Mr. Wickham declined proceedings. Not-
withftanding this lenity. the tenor of the profecution
had no fooner ceafed. than he wrote a grange inco-
herent letter to Mrs. Flint, Rating, that if the did not
interfere to fettle the family difputes, the would be
obliged to appear in Court, where, if the told truth,
the would difgrace her patron ; and, if the did not, the
would be put into the pillory in a wooden box at Cha-
ring Croft ; that thn glory would get to Bombay, and
in the public newfpapers, when it would appear Mr.
W. had declined fighting a duel; that no man could
be excufed for refuting to fight after having interfered
in a family difpute ; hefides, no one ought to refute
after the Duke of York and Mr. Pitt bad fought:.
that after all, the Rory would get into the Houle of
Cemnrcns ; where feme Member would get up, and
alt Mr. Wickham if it was true that he !had refufed
a challenge ? that men had been expelled the Houle
for left offences : that the King, who was at the
head of all Gentlemen, would Rake him out of the
Privy Council: in them that no man would fit
with him, but that lie would- be looked upon as a
fool, and unfit to be entrufled with the affairs of the
oat ion at this time of peril. This letter Mr. and Mrs.
Flint deemed it their duty to thew to Mr. Wickham.
A Ihort time after, the defendant fent Mr. W. a
no's, which Mr.%Vickhani tranfmitted to his uncle,
unopened. The defendant called upon Mr. Wickham
on a Sunda/ evening, and fent in his name. Mt.
Wickham, .conceiving it was his uncle, went to him.
The defendant alked him why he had fent his letter
to his uncle ? To whieh,Mr.Wickliam obferved, he
bad done fo. beeaufe be thought he was the perfon
' who had moll influence over him. The defendant
laid, he might have opened it without fear. Mr.
Wickham replied, he could hold no communication
with him of any kind; upon which the defendant laid,
• if he did not give him the fatisfaCtion of a Gentleman.
he was one of the greateft blackguards that ever
was. Upon this evidence the Jury innantly found
the defendant guilty. It appeared Mr. Wickham
• had not given any advice to ufe coercive matures
• againll the defendant. He bad merely advikd
and Mrs. Flint to lay the opinion of an eminent
Counfel on the fubjeft of the family differences before
• Come common friend.
Lord E LLLLL oantrom hoped the defendant would
be in a proper (late of mind before he came up to re-
ceive judgment. His conduit in writing the letter
to his filler, and his fultfequent behaviour to the pro-
fecutor, bole the charader of illiberal vulgarity. It
might be neceffary to make him give &reties to keep
the peace; at all events he was not to look to a (pee
dy enlargement of his perfon from confinement. It
would be well for him if. hy his contrition, he could
make his peace with Mr.Wickbam.

• COURT OF KING'S BENCH.DMILIN.
TITZGFRALD V. HAWKESWOILTH•
BRtACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.
Tuefday, the 14th irritant. this interesting trial, of
which we could only give a brief flatement yefterday,
commenced in the Court of King's Bench, Dublin,
before the CH Ia IF JUSTICE and a Special Jury, COM-
pofed of the following perfons :
John Carleton, Leland Crofthwaite, John Lintlfsy,
Char. Thorpe.
I. B Anyway, Rkbard Liana,
Kith. Hone, oho Duncan, W. Seal \ lira, and
Jeffery Foot, aka Hutton, Barth. Masiere,F.fora.
Mr. PENEFATI4aIt opened the cafe by erplaining
that it was an anion brought by the plaintiff, Mary
Fitzgerald, againft the defendant, the Key. Thomas
Hawketworth, for a b-each of promife of marriage.
The damages were laid at 50001. and the defendant
pleaded, ill, the general iffue—idly, that he Was 1
under age wt.en the promife was made—and laftly,
the flattate of limitation.
Mr. Setjeant Moose Rated the plaintiff's cafe at'
great length, and with great ability. He com.
.meneed by obferving, that the prefent was a cafe
calculated to interest manly fenfibility, and engage
the ferious attention and fympathy of every maa
rwifhing to maintain the moral and facial obligations.
The queltion with the Jury, was not, as in ordinary
aftions, to recover damages ; but they were to ad.
mearnre the conmenfation due to wounded feeling
and a broken bean t they were called upon to give
what atonement could be given to mental agony, to
repofe for ever loft, and by their verdift to check an
offence peculiarly reproachful to human nature.—
They would find the cafe before them one in which
thiduplicity and art of the defendant was commen-
furate with his profeffions of affettion, and that the
moment he pretended love, he determined to deceive.
They would find hN poet ify and love in the fame man;
enthufialm and diffimulation, cunning and candour,
in the fame letters ; and in thofeletters, and under
his own hand, they would be able to trace the arts
and wiles of the deceitful lover. On the other hand,
they would fee in the plaintiff long contlaney, conti
nued affeltion, and undeviating virtue; up to the
prefent noment. They t'ould behold an affeaing
pielpre of patience and long fuffering, the Lady flow
to rognife, but having Komifed, mull faithful to the
IaIL This being the general profrEhis of the merits of
the cafe, the learned Counfcl fatd, it became his duty
,to lay the fails before the Jury. The plaintiff was a
lyoung Lady, now about 26 years of age, living with
her family ; her father, a moil refpe&able old Gen-
tleman. had been a military officer, and her brother
was now a Captain in his Majeßy's fervice. The
family had been fettled for Come years back in Cant.-
town, about nine miles from Mount-Rath. in the
t'sconnty ; of five children the plaintiff was the
en! The Esther of the defendant Mr. Hawker-
worth, inferior to Mr. Fitzgerald in the claims of
antient genealogy. was, however, faperier in worldly
circornilances, and sited as the manager of Lord
Caßlecoote's eftates in that county. The defendant,
his fon. was ordained in the year 5795. and bad ac-
(piked a confiderable flare of celebrity as a preacher,
and was well known in the pulpits of this metropolis,
but whether his pratlical morality accorded with his
precepts, would be for the Jury to determine. Before
the year 1794, there was naturally an intimacy be-
tween the two families, from the proximity of their
refidences. The defendant was then a Student in Tri-
nity College. and was nearly about to tale his degree.
He was then about zo years of age, and the Lady 16.
An affection was mutually conceived, and after fame
difficulty on his part to engage the Lady to fedi%
procedure, they became contracted by a folemn vow
to end in marriage. Their affeEtion becoming ob-
vious to the furrounding country, thrill began the de.
fendant's duplicity. He told the young Lady that
they mull keep their fentiments for each other f
that he wiled to be out of College before their mar-
riage took place, and that by and by he would be or.
dained, and was ordained the following year. a ftrong
prefumption againft his nonage. In the year 179,4.
the deflndant wrote three letters to Mifs Fitzgerald,
the firft recommending the renewal of their vows, &c.
from whence an intended matrimonial engagement
and previous contrail were evidently to be inferred.
Here the learned Connfel quoted from the firß letter
paffages which were nearly as follow :
"My deareft Manor—l will not fay I was difeppointed In not
receiving an anfwer to my letter of yaterday ; for certainly no-
thing that you would have written could have added to my a(x-
&name confidence, but I did cape& a hoc or two; they would have
been a comfort to me, and would have impaled no trouble on you.
Dwell hut! hope you are by this rime coovieced of the fincerity

my Intentions; you mull ere sow have dlfcaned, from my Mikes

hopes be is the enrapturing profpedt of caber you mine. Let

gagement. Let es, Once our love Is mutual, agreetousite our faml-

" P. S. Mark. my Angel' make the promife I require, and you
bell foe bow prudently I win behave—this brings dougs to no
proof. You may depend upon the hearer."
This, continued Mr. Moots, was to prove the
militancy of the Lady—but you, Gentlemen of the
Jury, tail find that eonikancy proved to this very
hour ; while the defendant has been feeling by bafe-
nets and hypoctify to break off the match, sad at the
fame time impeding upon her pliant brother and
refpeaable father, and difarranging the whole family.
Two other letters were written by the defendant so
the plaintiff the fame year—one of them contaias the
following pairages :
.. Our love Acing mutual, my Maria I then why not our ekele.

livered the defendant's meffage : the terms were ac-
ceded to by Mifs Fitzgerald's friends, and a meeting
wok place between her father and uncle, and the
defendant and his father.—The marriage was agreed
upon, but before the day arrived which was to feat
their happinef., the defendant's brother brought a
meffage to the lady's uncle, &firing that We butt/
nets might be put off—On the sad of Dees 18or,

fortune of the Lady was to be made up was deter.

It now remains for you, Gentlemen of the Jury, to

The Rev. Valentine Griffith, being (worn, proved

Mrs. Mary Ann Palmer being ((``

reqnefled that the witnefs would call the Saturday
following at his houfe, when he would fatisfy him
of the property be intended giving his (on to enable
bin to snake a fettle:nest. But on Friday, John
Hawkehrorth. a younger brother of the defendant,
went to the wisnefs, and told him, that although his
father. had waited on the witnefs. he was averfe to
the matchellthat his brother had nothing to fettk
upon Mies F.—that marrying her would ruin his prof.
peas in the Church —and that the alarming [fate of
his brother's mind was the cede of his father's edit
to the witnefs.
Jufeph Price (worn—knew the plaintiff and the

' it was arranged that the fettlements fhould be drawn
at soool. fortune, and the defendant raid, " on Ss-
turday.next, pleafe Gon, we'll be married."—At the
fame time he a(ked if the witnefs had got the tool.
from England. Witnefs anfwered that. he had. Wit.
nets mentioned an attorney in the country to draw
the fettlements, but the defendant objefted to any
Qt2een's county attorney, as a they were a let of
prating fellows, and it would be known all over the ,
country what fortune he got without making a fettle-
went." Witnefs contented to go to Dublin for them,
and the defendant preffed him to return on Friday or',
early on Saturday morning, as on the evening of that
day he was 4etermined to be married, and stilted who
was the propereft perfan to marry them, adding,
"by G—o, between oinfelvet, I could marry us as
well as any of them." The witnefs mentioned the
Rev. Mr. Griffith, to which the defendant affented,
although he did not much like being married by him,
but as he intended leaving the country immediately
after, it was left matter. NVitneii went to Dublin
the next day, and retained with the fettlements and
the 2001. on the morning of Satin-day. Defendant
did not attend his appointment, but fent a note of
apology, that he was not well and could net keep his
promife. [The note was here read.] The witnefs
did not fee the defendant again by any chance before
he left the country. lie wrote for an explanation, and

getting a living, the defendant would fulfil his en-
gagement I to this the defendant wrote an erafive
antwer, laying that he would not pledge himfelf to

On his crofs-examination, he raid that his firti
knowledge pf the courtfhip was by the letter from his
lifter in tile!, when he was at Malta—he did not then
know that the defendant's father was averfe to the
match ; he would have (corned an alliance under fuel,
a circtindlanee ; he was fatisfied by the defendant's
declarations, and took his word as a Gentleman and
clergyman: he had heard of the defendant's debts,
3 or tool.—After the marriage witnefs would have
lent the defendant 2301. and had no doubt but his
uncle would have lent stool. more.—The marriage
fcttlements were here produced and read.
Dr. John Frank proved that the defendant, at the
time he pleaded ficknefs to elcule his net keeprip, his
matrimonial appointment, in-May, tRo3, had no par-
ticular eumplaint that could have prevented his going
abroad on ferions bufinefs.
Here all the letters were read by the Clerk of the
Cream, down to where the defendant declined fur-
titer explanation, and declared that he conitdered his
engagement to Mitt F. at an end.

riage, and never taw a man more anxiaus to haie a
marriage concluded, than his brother was. It was
broken off by the determination of his father. and.
but for the witnefs, he believes the defendant would
have been married to Mif. Fi; zgerald long ago. The
witnefs wa, induced to prevent it, becaufe he conceiv-
ed he ought to mak.: a match which would better pro-
mote his profpeas in life. His brother. had he mar-
-1 tied the plaintiff, would have no fubfiftence but what
I Le would have derived from her tinnily, or from the
witnefs. His father, one morning as he was letting
cut for Dublin, took an oath, putting it out of his
power to repent if defendant Mould marry Mils Fitz-
gerald, and that he would fettle the property he in-
tended for him on the witnefs and his cadet fan ; his
