Mt. Pou.omt, fdr the plaintiff, replied.-41econtendo
cd that his Learned Friend (the Common Sergeant)
had not fairly stated the question which the Jug y.weuld
have to decide. It was by no means material to the
preset t issue to dere-mine Whet! er the plaintiff
made a mistake, and had in consequence sworn to* a
statement iimonsistent ~with the facts, but whether he
had wilfully bten.ginlty of perjury? If they found; as
his Learned Friend called upon them to do, a verdict for
the defendant, they must be of opinion 'that his' client
had delibera:ely and corruptly sworn to what he knew
to be false; and he confessed himself ttnahle to imagine
in vh it part of the evidence they could find matter to
warrant such a verdict ; for not only must they consi-
der the affidavit false, but wilfully false.
His LORD mit., after summing up, told the Jury, in
reply to a question, that 40s. would can y costs.
Verdict tur the plaintiff—Damages One Slidling.

PREROGATIVE COURT, JAMIAST 8.
(Caveat Day.)
lIODY AGAIN T IV BY AND DORY,
Sir JOHN Nicnom. gave sentence in this case, which
was argued last term. It was a suit respecting an:un-.
finished will of the late flohy, of Walhalli•green,
whereby the bulk of his pi operty Is as bequeathed to his
cousin, James Hoby, nominated executor, to the preju-
dice of- Taomas and Dan'el Iloby, the brothers and
neat of kin of the testator. Probate of this instrument
was opposed by Messrs. T. and 11l Roby, on the grougd
that-the deceased was t f uhsoundmind. 'The learned
Judge went through the evidence NI forne length, and
was of opinion that the instrument contained the sane
testianientaiy intention ii the deceased. The acts-al
eccentricity, and the dentin's), which was she-efetitok
disease, showed no more than transient incapacity..He'
'pronounced for the vAltdity of the instrument on these
ground,—first, that it IA a% founded upon the whole tes-
tamentary intention of the deceased for years past; se.
condly, that the deco sed was of sound mind when the
will was written and subsequently; and la,tly, that the
ut,fiiiished state of the will, and its Want of execution,
were sufficiently accounted for.
LIISDINGYON and Dr. HAGGARD, for the patties
opposing. applied for their expenses; but
The COUNT declined making any order upon the
subject. •-

-A Committee was sitting at Guildhall, with the
Judges of the Sheriffs' Conic in London, almost the
whole of yestei day ; and it appears an investigation on
the si.bj.-ct of the practice in those Courts is going on,
from which very beneficial result's may be expected.
J. Eastwood, the gamekeeper of James Dearden,:,
Esq. (Lord of the Manor of Rochdale), may be now
added to the numerous list of victims'to the lawless and
reckless principles which actuate the modern outlaws;
the poachers. The unfortunate man left home early
on Sunday seinnight,.and nothing weeeheird of him till
the Wednesday following, when his murdered booty Sias
found stretched out on Rowley Moor, about five miles_
horn RochdAle.

Yesterday morning, Omni 11 o'clralt,ras. a hackney
;coach, in which were two Ladiei, was-proceeding ra-
pidly down the New Road, adjacent to the Regent's
Verk, one of she fate wheels came in contaet with. a
'waggons when: .by the violence of the concussion, the
coachman was thrown, from his seat a considerable dis-
tance into the road. The horses taking fright, ran off;
they 'had not 'proceeded far, when the traces broke, and
one of the horses turning round, the pole of the carriage
struck him in the breast, and injuted him considerably.
The Ladies, in a state of great agitation, pressed Closely
to the carriage window, the glass of which, by the sud.
den stopping of the vehicle, was smashed in pieces,
;part Of w hith flew into the face of one of the Ladies and
'cut her dreadfully. Thrcoacbman, although stuns
iby the fall. escaped without any serious injury.
