MIDDLFSEX SESSIONS.

Saturday, W. Adams, 15 years of age, was indict-
ed for assaulting a girl nine years old, with intent to
violate her person. He decoyed the girl into a field
with other children, and when there he dispersed the
others in search of flowers while heperpetrated the
ii.ftmous offence, and communicated to the poor
child a loathsome disease.—Guilty, and sentenced to
six months imprisonment in the House of Correction.
M. For was indicted for stealing a quantity of
lead, the property of Mr. Cannam. The prisoner was
a labourer in the employment of Mr. Cannam, who
was building several houses, most of which had been
plundered of lead. This induced Mr. Cannam to
watch, and he saw the prisoner come out with a
piece of lead under his jacket. He followed him to
the door of a dealer in marine stores, and there took
him into custody.—Guilty ; but, in consideration
that he informed Mr. Cannam of the person who in-
duced him to steal the property, he was only sen-
tenced to one month's imprisonment.

know that k is a libel ; but before they call upon the
defendants to enter into excessive bail, it ought to
know that the libel was of a most dangerous nature.
What is it? read the libel, Mr. Clark.—Mr. Clark,
Deputy Clerk of the Arraigns, was about to read it,
when Mr. Hunt said, it was a gross and scandalous
libel, reflecting on his character.
Mr. Common Serjeant.—lt does not impute any
thing against you punishable by the criminal laws of
the country I suppose. In ordinary cases of libel, we
generally call upon the parties to hold themselves in
recognizances in £BO each, and two sureties in £4.0
each ; but I suppose your motion is to take a warrant
against them to night? Mr. Hunt—lt is ; I would
certainly wish to secure them.
Mr. Common Serjeant.--Then the Court will not
grant it on a Saturday night. Mr. Hunt—l don't'
care ; I have applied for it.
Mr. Common Serjeant.—lf the motion had been
made by Counsel, such a thing would not have been
requested.—Mr. Hunt—lt was the suggestion of
Counsel. _ .

Mr. Common Serjeant—ls it within the City of
London ? Mr. Hunt—lt is.
Mr. Common Serjeant—Do you think the defen-
dants will run away before Monday ? Mi. Hunt—
Not the slightest ; I have no such thought.
Mr. Common Serjaant—Then where is the use of
it ? where can be the use of it ? If you are prepared
to make affidavit that they are persons likely to run
away, in that case, I may grant the motion ; but if
you are not prepared to say, upon affidavit, that they
are persons likely to run away, I cannot accede to it.
Mr. Hunt—l cannot do that ; but from the character
'of the libel, I think they are likely to run away.
Mr. Common Serjeant—lf you make an affidavit
of it, it will be another thing.
Mr. Sheriff DERANGES, who was upon the Bench,
said, he had not the slightest objection to be answer•
able for the Gentlemen, although he had no know-
ledge of the parties.
Mr. Hunt said, that he did not require it; but he
might, even in that event, think it right to examine
that Gentleman, upon the subject of his competence
to bail three such persons.
The COMMON SERJEANT then ordered the warrant
to be suspended ; that the parties should have notice
to prepare themselves in the usual bail of £BO each,
and two sureties in £4O each ; and that 48 hours no-
tice of bail be given to Mr. Hunt, the plaintiff.
Mr. Hunt— Then these arc the sums you hold
them in ? Mr. Common Serjeant—The Officer of the
Court has received the order. Mr. Hunt—Then I
have done my duty, and I came here for that purpose.
The COMMON SERJEANT resolved, that notice
should be served upon the parties, and Mr. Hunt was
sent after, to be apprised of that circumstance, but
he had gone to far, and the Court immediately
afterwards adjourned.

WELCH GREAT SESSIONS.

Carnarvon Sessions commenced on Friday week.
.7. Jones, a drover, was tried for uttering forged notes,
and notwithstanding SI witnesses established the'
charge, and Mr. Glover, Inspector to the Bank of
England, traced 39 notes to have been paid by the
prisoner to different individuals in purchasing cattle,
the Jury returned a verdict of—Not Guilty. Next
day the same prisoner was indicted for having forged
notes in his possession, and the Jury again returned a
verdict of—Not Guilty.
Chief Baron RICHARDS then said—" Prisoner, you
have been tried for a very great offence, but the
Jury, both yesterday and to-a)* thought proper to
bring in a verdict of—Not Guilty ! Such a verdict,
after such a mass of evidence, must be extremely pre-
judicial to the public interest; and, for my own part,
I cannot conceive how they can answer it to their
own consciences ! That you are guilty is as clear as
that two and two make four. However, if your con-
duct in future prove honest, it may be considered a
fortunate circumstance ; but should you ever appear
again at the bar, I hope you will never meet a Jury
so unjust."
Cuatops Cam—At Flint, a man was indicted for
extorting 14s. 6d. from another, under the pretence
of rescuing him from the " well," Llaaeilion. It is
customary, even at the present day, for people at en-
mity with each other, to write the names of those
they wish denounced, on a piece of. slate or paper,
which they throw into the mysterious well ; and it is
believed, that so long as the names remain there, the
person is at the mercy of the evil Genii, and consigned
to ultimate perdition. To escape from this maledic-
tidn, sums of money are given to have the name re-
moved, and thus restore the party to peace ! About
twelve years ago, a poor tailor in Fliatshire, was
charged with stealing a goose from an old woman.—
She was asked how she came to suspect the offenderB
when she observed, that having threatened to throw
his name into the well, he confessed the crime.

7. Hardman and J. Walker, for horse-stealing, and
E. Foulkes, for robbing his mastei (L. Hughes, Esq.)
of sums of money to a great amount, were severally
convicted, and received sentence of death, which was
commuted for transportation for life.

• Wednesday a gentleman of the name of Johnston,
residing in Greek-street, Soho, called to pay a short
visit to a friend in Lisson-street, New-road. During
his stay he fastened his horse by the bridle on therail
before the parlour window, when, although it was
only seven o'clock, and the eye of the master was
almost constantly kept on his horse, yet in this situa-
tion some person or persons contrived to steal the
saddle, with which they got clear off.

pn-boats which had blockaded it by watt. These,
it is further stated, were to clear the gulph of Paris.
while General Bermudez attacked the Spanish cor-
don from Cariaco to Guiria. His cavalry had al-
ready crossed the Orinoko. The Englishmen who
have joined lately, are partly gone forward to Ge-
neral Bolivar's army, and partly attached to that of
Bermudez. The wishes of all who have arrived at
Head-quarters have been gratified. By the same
letters, it appears a great deal of produce had ar-
rived from San Fernando at Angustura.
" General Marino lately landed at Esmeralda, the
port of Cariaco, with fifteen Englishmen and a mere
handful of Margaritanians, and took the town ; but
was soon after attacked by more than double his
force, and driven out in his turn. Marino lost five
men and an English surgeon (the only prisoner) was
taken very a-propos, for the Spanish Commander,
Ximenes, was wounded, together with the Second in
Command, Armas, and the surgeon was left dressing
them. Marino and his little band, after fighting like
tigers and doing great havock, retreated to Cumana-
coa to join Monies, who, with a detachment of 800
men, was again proceeding to the attack.—Four of
Admiral Brion's brigs had sailed from the Orinoko
but I have not learned their destination. Several
merchant vessels and launches are announced from
Guayana ; what they bring I shall forward by next
opportunity."

Mr. BROUGHAM said he should avail himself of

remedy. But next week he should take some step
to secure to voters the power of exercising their elec-

tided to the protection of the I louse, in respect to any

POLICE:

Bow-ettere.--Yesterday Thomas Yates, a private belonging to
the Third Regiment of Foot Guards, was fully committed to
Newgate for trial, charged with robbing Mr. Hooker, of Par-
liament-street, of a valuable gold watch, chain, and seals, on
Sunday night, in St. James's Park. Nichols, the Bow-street
Officer, ascertained that the prisoner had been charged with a
similar offence upop a former occasion, and had received a mill-
tar punishment of SOO lashes.
HATTON.GARDEN.--J. Lake, a chimney-sweeper, was charged
with letting Wm. 13lummer, his apprentice boy, out to hire to'
other chimney-sweepers, contrary to law. It appeared, that in
consequence of the boy having no plate on his cap, with his
master's name and address, and his having many severe wounds,
from being compelled to go up narrow flues, the defendant was
before summoned to the Office. A Surgeon stated that the
wounds required the utmost care to prevent mortification. Yes-,
terday the parties attended, when Mary 13Iumtner, the boy's
mother, said that he had been bound apprentice when considera-
bly under eight years of age ; that he was an illigetimate child ;
and that being very poor, she had no other means of providing
for him.—Mr. Tomes, the solicitor, attended on behalf of the
mother, and it was agreed that the indentures should be can-
celled, and the boy delivered up, to be otherwise provided for.

AMERICAN PAPERS.

extract from Mr. Speaker CLAY 8 speech on the
new Navigation Act I am satisfied that the Bri-
tish Ministry, and the enlightened men of that na-
tion, are not averse to our participating in their co-
lonial trade : but they are afraid, should they con-
cede that point, that the country at large would not
support them in it. Pursue the course, then, which
I advocate, and you alarm the whole British West
India interest—you make it sensible of the injustice
done to us. This, above all others, too, is the time
for the measure proposed. The Convention will ex-
pire by its own limitation in July, 1819. Negocia-
dons may be renewed on the same subject. The other
day, in debate upon another topic, I said that there
existed in the Councils of this country a tone and a
temper which does not become the country; they do
not correspond with its rank among nations. Adopt
this measure, and I will withdraw half of what I
then said. Adopt the other measure that I proposed

Rumour has been for some time busy in this city
with the designs now on foot against the Spanish pro-
vinces beyond the Sabine. It is currently reported'
that the French exiles in the United States formed a
plan some time since for taking possession of the pro.'
Vince of Texas, with perhaps the adjoining country,
called Provinceslnterness. A subscription was raised
amongst the most wealthy, to defray the incidental
expenses. M. Girard is said to have subscribed fifty
thousand dollars, and Joseph Bonaparte, Marshal
Giouchy, &c. are also believed to have contributed
largely. Some have gone so far as to assert, that the
leaders notified the Spanish Minister at Washington
of their intention to colonize the above province,
w:iere they were willing to acknowledge the supre-
tcy of Old Spain, in case she allowed them to re.
main undisturbed.
We should have treated all this as idle rumour, had
not the letter from Natchitoches set the matter beyond
all question.

For, like übrystal it shines, while it softens the leather,
And makes your Boots proof "geinst the wind and the weather.
Why the praises of Tennis's Japan should I tell,
When those who have us'd it must know it so well?
Why should coachmen still brush at old harness in vain,
%Veen this Blacking can give it fresh lustre again?
For, without second sight I can prophesy soon,
That you'll see it adopted by Foot and Dragoon.;
For you scarcely can tell, when drawn up on parade.
Which glisters the brightest, the boot or the blade.

THE SPANISH FIDDLER.

FROM Madrid to London a fiddler came o'er,
A spruce little rnonkified elf; •
Dod Mondongo his name, and he'd scarce got on shore
Ere a boot shewed the shape of himself.
No person was nigh, and he knew not the way,
So thus he the vision addreu'd—
Will you to a lodging direct me I pray?
And bored low wit'• his hand on his breast.
The figure too bowed, but we well may suppose
It forbore to the Don to reply;
For tho' Wqrren's Blacking each feiture bright spews,
Yet talking it cannot supply.
The Don he looked ha-d, bowed again, scraped his foot,
And repeated his humble raque.t ;
*Every action was mimicked by aim f the boo*,
But still not a word it addaused.
" Strange !" echoed filondongo, while trembled his frame,
But I'll try what my music will do ;
He drew out his fiddle—the form did the same ;

GLOM V. THE PIV,PHIETORS OT DEE/IT-LAX&

Mr. TADDY moved for a rule t..) shew cause why
the inquisition in this case, taken before the Sheriff,
at his Office in Bedford. row, could not be set aside,
on the ground of a misdirection of the Jury.
It was an action brougl.t by the husband of Mrs.
Glover, the actress, to recover enc hundred pounds
fnr salary due to Mrs. Glover from the defendants.
The plaintiff gave notice to the Treasurer of Drury-
lane Theatre, expressly prohibiting them from paying
Mrs. Glover her salary. Or.e of the witnesses on his
cross-examination admitted, that Mr. Moore, one of
the Committee for managing the affairs ofthe Thea-
tre, said; he considered hits. Glover alone entitled to
her salary, and that it should be paid to her. It ap-
peared also that Mr. and Mrs. Glover were married,
and had children. They lived separate, by her de-
sire, and she maintained her children. The Under-
Sheriff told the Jury it was for them to consider whe-
ther the husband's rights were such as to entitle him
to receive her salary They were also to consider the
wife had riLlits as well as the husband ;• and if the
Proprietors of Drury-lane Theatre knew she was sup-
porting herself and her children, they might reason-
ably suppose she was entitled to receive her salary.
Here the Learned Counsel observed; that the prepo-
sition of the Under-Sheriff was unfounded in law.
However hard it might appear, the rights of a wife
could not supersede the rights of a husband.
Lord Ettearsottouon.—" How had the wife been
paid?"
Mr. T*nnv.—" The salary had been paid to her
weekly."
LordELLIENIIOItOUGH.—," Not paid to her under

any authority from the husband ?"
Mr. TADDY.--" No, my Lord. He bad been
abroad, but it was contended, that inasmuch as he
had warned the Proprietors of the Theatre not to pay,
they were liable to the action."---(The Jury gave a
farthing damages.)
Mr. 'Dun then observed, that the law made the
husband liable for the debts of a wife ; and conse-
quently he was entitled to the disposal of her earn-
ings. In the case of a woman seized with lands, her
receipt after marriage for rent was no bar against
the husband's demand.
Lord Eztawaonouctr.—" This is a case of meri-
torious employment. She is charged with her own
support and that of her children by her own exer-
tions. Did her husband counsel her not to be so em-
ployed, and forbid her to provide for her children r
Mr. TADDY said, although she might provide for
her children without the aid of her husband, yet if
she contracted any debts in providing for those chil-
dren, the husband was answerable to creditors. The
Jury. in the present instance, might have said, they
would not attend to the rights of the husband ; but
the Court would, in the administration of justice, say,
perhaps, that the rights in this case were the rights
of every husband in the land. He contended that
the verdict could not be sustained.
The Court granted a rule to chew cause.
