14-N•lovG Lk g.. 1 orr.—Mr. t ARROW flared
0:_t! as an a.:1:011 to recover the value of a
v•-• bo:te, which had killod by tbe
nc
cndo& of in driving .L
tart.

ne plaintiff, '.Tr. Ti onr•nnger, was a ploprie-
tor c levet al coaches which tun between London
and 137 ighton, and r‘hccs adiacent. The horfe
which was kiike!, sr one mitally kept for his
own ufe, and ferved him as his charger, he being
a member of a voltinLer corps of cavalry ; but of,
late the animal had ha.l but little exerciii. FW
told the coachman of th Guildford Rage, in
whom he had great confidence, to ufe him occa-!
Clonally, by way of keeping him in health. He
ft•tted this to account why fo gond a boric was,
found to a flage coach. The defendant was
butcher relish:lg at Epiom, in this county, and'
prided himfelf noon only one thing, but that thing
was his delight to filch an extent, that it feemed as
if he wilhed it fhould be engraved on his tomb.—
It was 'his, that he poffeffed the fafteft trotting
horfe in the county, and that he and his boric ;
could out-trot all the world. But in his excurfions
Upon this hotle, he did not always proceed with as!
much care as expedition ; for it happened that one
evening in January Lift, when unfortunately the
animal in quellion ;slots in the Guildford coach, at ;
th.t. bottom of the hill, near Leatherhead, he drove
Lis ch.tife cart fo unfkilfully and fo furioufly, that,
the (haft entered the thigh of :he horfe, and canted
his death. He Ihould prove the manner in which!
it was done—that the coachman was no way to j
blame, and then he trufted that the Jury would
not think too guineas would be too much for fuels
an animal.
The coachman depofed, that on the evening in
queflion, as he was going over the road foftly, pit
at the bottom of the hill near Leatherhead, he law
fomething coming, which run zig zag acrofs the,
road. He called out as it approached him, and
drew up dole to his own fide of the road. He
could not, however, keep clear, the defendant's
cart came dire& upon him with filch velocity, that
the (haft was driven nine inches in the flefh of the
off hind thigh ; the poor animal (creamed out like
a child that was feverely beaten. The defendant
jumped up at receiving the (hock. Before that
time he had evidently been lying on his back in
his cart, upon the ftraw at the bottom, probably
afleep. He abufed the witnefs a great deal, and
(wore lie would not give his name, but at length
he did. The farriers, who attended the horfe,
proved his death in confequence of this wound,
and one laid he would have given so guineas for
the horfe on a (peculation to fell again.
W. Clinch faid, that previous to the accident,
he Lad offered Mr. I. 75 guineas for the horfe, and
would willingly have given lc° for it. He believ-
ed the animal to be worth it.
Mr. Serjeant Barr, in crofs.ezansination, hav-
ing in vain attempted to prove that the coachman
was drunk, addreffed the Jury in mitigation ct
damages, and contended, that they ought not to
give more than the price of a common Rage hoes.
Verdi& for the Plaintiff—damages 55 guineas.
CROWN SIDR,MAIP.CN 23.—ARSON.—John Con-
nal, Charles Connal, and William Lyon, were in-
dided for maliciouil.a and wilfully (cuing fire to a
barn, containing various articles, the property of
Thomas Morris, at Meriham, in this county, on
the 29th day of Auguft
Mr. ED. MORRIS Rated, that this was the mon
atrocious cafe which had been prefented to the
Jury during the courfe of the prefent afiizes. The
three prifoners had worked with Mr. Morris, a
farmer at Merfham, during the lan harveft ; but
he having reafon to be ditratisfied with the mode
in which they did their work, on Saturday the
28th Arigull hall, let them know that he would
difcharge them. It would be in evidence that
when he told them fo, they replied that they would
be revenged of him.
Thomas Morris faid, he was a farmer refiding
at Merfham, and a fervant of Mr. Hilton Joliffe.
He rentedthebarn andpremifes which were burned
down of that Gentleman. He had employed the
prifoners to reap his wheat, but being diffatisfied
with them, he difcharged them. On the Saturday
the 29th of Anguft, when he difcharged them,
they laid he fhould repent it; for they would do
him a milchief. They had reaped the field a zig.
sag, and not fairly. He infitied that they fhould
ffinare their work before he returned from market,
where he was then ge.ing, and that he would pay
them off or. his return. They (poke Irilli tope.
ther, and then one fahl, if they were not to reap
the win,le field they would be paid a Bs. per acre
iii:lead of t p. On the Sunday morning he mea-
ftrcd the wol;-, and Oren took them to the Fox,
wh.re I.c paid them. They owed the landlord
fume tr. -ney, am! he paid them there that he might
go it. Ile called Wm. Lyon in Ertl, and gave
him th: money, laying to Brooks, the landlord,
" There, von may now get your money." Lyon
looked very arg; ily at him, and faid, 44 You ufe
us very ill in not letting us finifir the field, but
you flail fur:'; i.p.nt it." The witnefs went home,
and looked round his barn and premifes to fee ail

MARCH .4.
Stephen Stilwell was indiCted r the wilful mut-
' der of Mary Ann, his wilt, tl, e 28th of Sept.
left, at the parifh of Mortlake.
Mr. Notarr, who appeared as Cc lintel for the
Iprofecution, Rated that the prif-ater a t the bar had
for Come time lived as a gardener in t.`te family of
a gentleman at Mortlake ; and the wo. Ilan whom
he had murdered alio lived as fervant t n. that fa-
mily. He therefore had every opportun..ty of be•
ing acquainted with her temper and mann, trs, pre-
vious to his taking her for his wife. The y were
married from that place, and took a public • houfe
at Mortlake, and might have been happy, iii hap-
pinefs ever dwelt with a man of his temper.. It
would not he regular for him to detail the vat sous
inflanees of cruelty which he had exercifed to.
%raids his wife, except as conneaed with the pce-
fent charge ; but he fhould prove that he frequent-
ly declared he would murder her—and particular..
ly he would call a witnefs, who would Rate, that ,
on the 26th of September (the murder happening
on the 28th) he quarrelled with his wife, and
turned her from the kitchen to the bar, telling her
that washer place, and added, r, It was no matter,
for file had but a few days to live " On the 27th, in
the evening, they were Peen together by two lodgers
in the /inure, fitting in the bar, and apparently in
amity ; but the next morning he perpetrated the
horrid crime, in the manner that would be related
by the witnelfes. It would alto appear, that he
had attempted another mode of death, for a load-
ed piaci' was found lying by her, the lock of which
was down, as though the trigger had been drawn,
and it had miffed fire. He was apprehended im-
mediately after the fad, and they would hear that
he confeffed murdering his wife, and added, 4, that
he did it becaufe (he would not obey him."
The &ft witnefs called was John Ward, who
Paid he was a baker, and lived near Stilwell's houfe.
On the 28th of September, about five o'clock, he
got up to work. He was difturbed with a noire,
and went to the gate; heard a noife in Stilwell's
room ; heard his voice : he was laying, " Come
get up, get up, your time is expired." He flood
dill a little time, and heard a (cream. Mrs. S.
laid, " My dear Stilwell, don't murder me."—
When he heard that, he went to an oppofite win-
dow, where he knew a foldier lay, and called him
up. In about ten minutes, law the prifoner come
out of doors at the front door ; but before he law
him, witnefs heard a Damping on the floor of the
prifoner's room. Soon after -he law the prifoner
run out of the front door. He run away, and
witnefs followed him. In about a minute witnefs
came up. Knight, a man he had called on paff-
ing by, &ft laid hold of him. His hands and clothes
were fprinkled with blood. They bound him ..ith
a cord, and witnefs left him in cuflody of Benja-
min Knight. On his crofs-examination, the wit-
nefs faid, that when he heard the Damping, he alto
heard the prifoner exclaiming, " that lie bad gain-
ed his liberty ;" and when he came out, he (aid,
" D—n that houfe, let it on fire," (meaning his
own houfe.)
Benjamin Knight depofed—" I was called by
the lait witnefs ; I was going by the houfe, and I
litiened at the window.; I heard two or three
groans, and I heard the prifoner Paying, that • he
had gained his liberty.' I then went into the yard;
aid a> there was a table wider the window, I got
upon it in order to look in at the window, and then
I heard a perfon quit the room, and run down
(lairs. 1 immediately went round, and law Stil-
well come out of the front door ; his clothes were
all bloody ; I and another man went up (lairs and
faw the deceafed on the ground. The floor was
over my (hoes in blood, near the deceafed's head.
I immediately ran down and put fired the prifoner.
Mr. Ward came to my aililtance, and we overtook
him. He (truck me leveral times ; when we
bound him, he appeared colleCted. He aflced me
to flack the cords, and not to hurt him."

Charles Barwood laid, he was a carpenter, and
lodged at the prifoner's houfe ; on the 28th of
September, in the morning, he heard a noife in the
pritnner's room ; the witnefs flept in a room not
far from the prifuner's room. He heard the node
of a perfon apparently ringing. lie then heard
Mrs. Stilwell fcreaming out—" Oh, Stilwell I dear
Stilwell!" then he heard a loud knocking, and the
pritoner finging—" You have given me fuck
holy." He dread himfelf, came down, and was
going nut at the back door. " I faw (laid he)
Stilwell at the foot of the !lairs, but I did not ob.
ferve his drefs at the time. As I went round the
houfe, I few him cone out at the front door ; his
face was bloody, and he raid, d—n you, do you
let tire to that houfc." I went up (lairs with tenj.
Knight. Mrs. S. was lying on the floor, with her
head beat all to pieces. A pillol was lying near
he-. I f. ,w th., prih-iner and his wife ahem eight
or nine the preceding evening in the bar together.
l they feemei.l ver.; cqrr.t-rtab!e.
V h.dged at Sti:well's hnnfe,
witli th- l.rfl wiinel ; he had heard the
:1. t!!.: morni::: of the -At. It came from
rv..m t:. y Lear611,...r. aging, and pre-

featly after the 'wornan fcreara out : lie was ling-
ing—" I hay t gained my fw•eet Liberty." We went
down, and Stilwell came down fwearing after us.
We went but, faid the witnefs, at the back door ; he
went nut at the front door, and laid, " fc; the
houfe on fire." He accomp;;,nied the 11.1 witnefs
to the room, and defcribed the Rate of th
ed as the WI witnefs had done. _

Ed. Davis, furgeon, at Mortlake, defcribed the
fituation of the deceafed.

Elizabeth Carter, fervant to the painter, had
lived with him three weeks on the day of the mur-
der: he appeared always fenfible, but frequently
laid he would murder her.

The prifoner, in defence, only laid that he did
not know what he did—his mind was very much
dillreffed by her aggravating temper.
Mr. Serjeant BEST, for the defimee, called one
witnefs, of the name of Brown. He Elated, that
the week before the murder he was with Stilwell
in his garden. He did not then feem to know what
he was about. He cut down his French beans,
and pruned away all his rote trees. Brown afked
him to go and have a pint of porter along with
him, but S. faid he would not drink, and he never
wifhed to go into his own houfe again, for they all
made him miferable.

Mr. JuniceHxere faid, the only queffion for
I tit; Jury was, whether they could poffibly infer
infanity, for that was the defence inTinuated by
the fall witnefs ? It appeared to him that the pri•
loner had worked himfelf up to a frenzy of paflion,
fo as not to know what he was about, but that
was not infanity. Men muff 7ellrain the turbu-
lence of their paffions, or anfwer the confcquences.
It teemed that the galling yoke which had wrought
him to the commiflion of this defperate deed was
the unhappinefs of domeflic circumflances, but
that was not infinity. Infinity was a bodily dif-
cafe, and did not originate in ill-temper and pal-
fion. If, therefore, they found that the fad arofe
from a criminal indulgence of the paffions, they
muff find him guilty.
• The Jut y. without any hefitation, returned a
verdia of—Guilty.
During the greater part of the trial the prifoner
wasperfealy calm ; but juflas the verdict was given,
he became dreadfully agitated, and could fcarcely
be fupported.
The Learned Judge immediately paffed fen-
tonce, obferving, that the prifoner was not in a
condition to profit by admonition (from hii agita
tion), be !bouts!, therefore, merely pronounce the
fentcnce of the law, which was, that he Ibould be
hanged on Saturday next, and afterwards be ana-
tomifed•.

The prifoner was a fhort thick man, about 40,
of a coarfe and "unpleafing countenance. It has
been faid that jealcmfy was the caufe of the ra(h
att, but nothing of the fort appeared in evidence.

MURDER Of' THE DULWICH HERMIT.
Benjamin Craggs and Arthur Bowers were in.
dieted for the wilful murder of Samuel Matthews
(commonly called the Dulwich Hermit), at Syden-
ham, on the aSth of December laft.
Mr. Moat's Rated the circumftances in which
Matthews was futtrul murdered, which have fre-
quently been detailed.
Richard Hickes depofed, that he was a patrole
at Sydenham. On the ayth of December, about
a quarter before fix, he Caw Craggs and his wife
on Sydenham Hill, about half a mile from the
cave of the deceafed; they were going towards
Dulwich ; it rained very hard, and continued to
do fo till nine. He bade them good night as they
paired. They returned loon after, in about Lre
minutes. _ _

T. Davey, con(lable of Sydenham, faw the two
prifoners on the 28th, about twenty minutes after
two in the morning, at his partner's watch-box,
about a mile and a half from Matthews' cave.—
He alked them what made them get up fo early ?

raid, " Me and my brother went yefterday to fee
old Matthews, and added, "that they found him
in his cave; that he feemed much frightened, bade
them to go along, for he had nothing to buy, no-
thing to tell, nor any thing to give them." The
witnefs Hiked them where they lay ? they laid jolt
by the fwing-gate on Sydenham Common. The
day after the witnefs laid the information againil
them and took them up.
James Brown, watchman, (aid he was prefent
at the converfation Hated by the laft witnefs. lie
heard the prifoner Craggs fay, that they were at
Matthews' cave the day before, and that he ap-
peared frightened at them, and told them to go
away, for he had nothing to give or to fell them.
William Morris Girl, he was one of the party
v.,ho was conveying the prifoners to jail the day
after the murder, Bowers laid, " Father be fore,
you keep in one ftory,for if we get into two ftories
we (hall be done."

William Carpenter, a grocer at Sydenham, faid,
on the morning the murder was difcorered, a boy
cane to his &op, but he could not fay it was the
prifoner Bowers ; the reit of this evidence was
therefore not admitted.

Ephraim Bowers laid, he was with the prifoners,
