ACCIDENT AT THE HULL DOCKS.

We stated some time since that the cast into bridge
at Whttetridgate end had been thrown open to the
public. Since then the w-rkineti have been empl.iyed
in completing the lack gates, and had proceeded some
way in removing the temporaty bridge adjoining the
ccffer clam, by the intervention of which the new works
we►e detended from the walls of the Hull dock. Pre-
paratory to admitting the water into the junction dock,
the dock gate neatest to the dam had heels closed, and
strongly snored up with struts of timber abutting on
tt e projecting masons y for g the w.lls of tt,e lock.
At about five in the morning ot S. turday leakage or
water, as we are informed. clang in appearancs, was
obsersed to is ue hob► under the old wall adjoining the
coffer dart on the Whetehiargate ►ide. Cue the
Rot kmen attempted to stop this issue by coveting it
with some clay ; it, howevet, crntinued to incr ale.
Some time aher water was observe) to issue lion:
under the piles of the carer dam. Ibis continued to
increase quickly, and ultimately to rush out with tre-
mendous violence.

Between trine and ten o'cl ck. when u e arrived at the
spot. it was evident, glum th. force with w hick it poured
out, that all attempts to it re t its progress would hive
hero futile. The space between the coffer dam and the
lock gate began to ti I rapidly, and when the water had
risen en it to bewail feet iii height. it began ti pur
rapidly through the joints.und lissui es pit the lock ores,
and rush like a CAW act into the open space i f the new
duck. • The precaution. bowvirtr, that had beer. taken
in shoeing up the gates. as we have aimed, stated,
tended to diminish its force and volume con.iskrablis
and consequently the weight of water, as fa, as Is
can leatn,was not productive of any injury to the works.

Mr. Sergeant'Siciais (with whom was Mr. Pavia),
stated the case for the plaintiff. The Jury had already
heard that the plaintiff in this case sought compensation
In damages at their hands, for one of the most salons
in cries of which any person couldcomilain in a Court
of justice—namely, the seduction of her daughter by
-the defendant. She complained that the defendant had
'basely taken advantage of the opportunities afforded
'him by his acquaintance with the family, to effect
the dishonour of her child. The plaintiff was a
.widow, of irreproachable character ; and the young
•woman, E.iza, her daughter, who was the subject of
the present action; was at this time 24 years of age; Ail
the parties hied at March, in the Isle of Ely, where the
.busband of the plaintiff formerly carried on the busi-
nisi of a farmer till he died, in the year 1819. In that
'year be died, leaving his widow the mother of eight
'children, for whoM she struggled to carry op the farm
for sometime. - For five years she continued the busi-
ness, when she fell into difficulties, and ultimately the
'farm was given up.' With the exception of Eliza, he
bel eyed that all her children were married and settled
in life. It was in the year 1821 that the defendant and
the plaintiff's daughter Eliza commenced their ac-
quaint once ; he showed her great attentions, and it
was for some time supposed that his views were of
the mist honourable nature. In 1821., hii uncle
died, leaving him in possession of a fortune of two
hundred pounds a-year. The intimacy continued, and
shindy afterwards it was that the plaintiff gave-up her
farm. It was then thtiught by the plaintiff that her'
daughter Eliza might do something for her own sub-
sistence; the defendant uas consulted; and at his sug-
gestion she was placed apprentice with a milliner. Stoll
.the acquaintance went on, and it was naturally ima-
gined that the defendant would have put into execution
his promises of marriage; but instead of so doing, be
took occasion too commit the greatest injury of which
man could be guilty to au unprotected female—he se-
duced and deserted her. She proved to be pregnant ;
'and then the defendant began to cool in his attentions,
and at length left her, without solace or support. Such
'was the general nature of the case he had to lay before
them. As husbands, as fathers, as honest and virtuous
'men, he was sure the Jury would feel for the wounded
pride and the suffering of the plaintiff; and when they
had listened to all the palliation which the ingenuity of
his Learned Friend could suggest, they would gladly
give to his.client such damages as, under similar cir-
cumstance,, they themselves would expect to receive.
Eliza Green examined—l am 24 ;my father lived
at March, in this county, end died in 1819; after his
death the plaintiff, who is my mother, contiuued the
farming business; in 1821, 1 first became acquainted
with the delendant—r Was then 16 or 17; he also lived
at March, and kept company with me. When he had
continued his addresses for twelve months, 1 asked my
mother if she was agreeable whether I might be with
Martin? and she said she had no objections, which
I told the defendant. Alter that he continued to keep
company with me, and told me he bad a property tbat
would amount to two hundred pr wads a year. He con-
tinued his attentions for six years, and down to about
twelve months from this time. I have seven brothers

and sisters. When I.e ceased his coming, he assigned
no reason. Ihere had about 15 months before that
time been a very great intimacy between us; I had a
child, but only once; it was born on the Sd of Jairuary
in the last year; the defendant was the father of it; I
told him I expected the thing Would hippen when I was
about six weeks gone. and he promised to make An
honest *omen of me ; when four moieties had eta wed I
told the plaintiff, and at her house I was confined ; the
child was a girl, and about a month atter the bitch' he
ceased to come; I was thirteen weeks confined to my

. Mr. Kitty then addressed the Jury for the deltas
dant. This was one of the actions in which the Advo-
cate for uperson placed in the situation of this defeatism'
laboured under difficulties of no ordinary magnitude.
To be either the apologist of misconducak or to attack
tbs conduct of one with whom his client bad once,
lived on terms of such intimacy as in this case had been
proved, was a task of a most unpleasant natere. BPI
m ibis case he was most happy to be able to relieve
Iflniself from the latter at least of them difficulties, as
it was no part of his instructions to say may thing. or to
hint at any thing, which could at all reflect on the cha-
racter of the young woman, who had been placed,
by the cupidity„ and the want of proper feeling of the
plaintiff, in the box, to give the evidence to which they i
had jost listened. Whatever be might have to say
(and be should have much to say) of thapother, he
wished to keep clear. of all attack on the character of
the daughter. The Jury bad beard a great deal of
the "sufferings and the desertion of Eliza Green, but
the real, the only question in this case was, not
what she bad endured, but what compensation in da-,
pages the plaintiff (her motile') is entitled to for the'
loss of service which she has sustained. in consequence
of the connexion which had takes place between her
'daughter and the defendant ? The claim of the
dugliter, if she has any, for compensation for the breach
of the defendant's promise to marry her (if any had
been given) she would be entitled to insist upon, what.
ever might be the result of the proceedings of today.
If she should be advised to bring an action for this
breach of a promise, which certainly ought to be kept
sacred and inviolable, then, indeed, the eloquence and
passion of his Learned Friend, the Sergeant, might not
bo misplaced; then his appeal to their passions might
fiat lie irrelevant; but in this form of action the question
was one of the most unpathetic and technical nature
possible. In like manner, the amount of the defendant's
.property ought to have no influence on their ver-
dict, as the amount of the loss of the plaintiff could
not in any degree depend on the amount of his pos-
sessions. Having said thus much, he would ask
them with what pretence the mother of Eliza. Green
could come into Court and claim damages? The
acquaintance commences when the parties are, in fact,
mere abildren— both• under sixteen. Comminication is
made to the mother, who, instead of watching or for-
bidding the continuance of the intercourse-3nstead of
inquiring whether the parents of the defendant were ac-
' quainted with the intimacy of the patties. and whether
lit were agreeable to them ? does all she can to forward
the growth of the attachment she sees forming—allows
him to continue his visits frevently and reguiarly—
aod dues every thing in her power to inveigle the defen-
dant into a match with her daughter, in order to
possess herself of the fortune of which it seems the 6-
fattiest had even then boasted. and which tbidaughter
had communicated to theutother. These visits were fre-
quent—three or four in every week—genet ally in the
evening, when the plaintiff retired to bed at eight o'clock,
leaving the young people to be guided by their own
notions of propriety and prudence. Would the Jury
deeply sympathise with a woman.who had acted thus?'
who had allowed this intercourse to continue without
advice—without caution? Was such conduct to be ad-',
mired? His Learned Ft lend bad appealed to them as
fathers and as besbands: be (Mr. Kelly) would also
appeal to them in the same characters. and ask them it
any father on the Jury would permit one of his chil-
dren to be exposed, at so tender an age as sixteen,
to such temptations? whether any husband would
approve of the conduct of his wife who might per-
mit it? He was quite sure they would nut. LIM/
U hen 'the plaintiff discovered that her child had bees
disgraced, and her pregnancy could be no longer con-
cealed from her eye, she allows the same intercourse
to be carried on till the vet, period of the birth of the
child. A woman who had thus acted could have no
claim for substantial damages ; she could, with no sense
of deceaCy or propriety, ask at their hands compensa-
tion for an ii jury 'Lich the most ordinary foresight
might have prevented ; and he trusted the Jury, as
moral men, would be of the same opinion. la cases s.f
this kind, they most see the disadvantages under which
a defendaut laboured, the daughter only being called;
and 'beret ore,a hawse' extenuating circumstances iniNbt
exist, he has no means of proving them, especially in a
case Where.they could not fail to have seen how re-
Auctantly the witness bad given her evidence on cross-
examinatioa. When they had comic!, red the whole of
this case, he was satisfied that they would see that the
oily person who could have any lair claim to damages
was the daughter ; but that the individual who, by her
own covetousness, or her own carelessness, had been in
fact, in wmte degree. the cause of the disgrace which
had befallen her daughter, could not with any propriety
ask their verdict for any thing likelarse damages.
Mr. Batonirauona a, after stating precisely what the
nature of the action was, told the Jury that their ver-
dict was not necessarily to be confined to-the loss which
the plaintiff had sustained, in consequence of the loss
of the services of her daughter; but that they might
fairly take into consideration the injured and wounded
feelings of the mother. With respect to the breach of
promise of marriage, they had nothing to dO with that;
she might at some future time call upon them for
damages on that account; but in this form of action
they must dismiss all considerations of it hom their
minds. The general state of things seemed to be this—
the plaintiff being left a widow wish a large family, and
knowing the deteudaut, the latter introduced himself as
the suitor of the young woman whose dishon. ur was the
groundwork of the present action. He pthposes maw
wage (as it should seem) to the yarn woman, and thy
(n. thing loath) receives his addresses, and tells her ma

Monday James (..10 underwent the awful sentence
of the law at Lancaster. for the murder of his wile at
Manchester, on the.td Jan. last. We asderstand that
' after the unfortunate man received his sentence, he ap-
plied himself *ith as, much assiduity as his feelings
would allow him, to the religious ier.touct;on and con-
' solation administered to him by the Chaplain of the gaol.
He fully acknowledged his guilt ; that he was unchinht-
' edly the cause of the death of his wife by his brutal
' usage towards her, but still he denied, as he did on
his trial, that any previous malice existed in kis mind,
or that be hid any intention of committing the crime of
murder when he struck her. He added, that he expected
' to be convicted of the r Bence of manslaughter merely,
and be transported. He also wished to palliate his offence
' by stating, that he was really unconscious of his ferocious
conduct towards her, in consequence of being so very
much intoxicated at the time. He wept and sobbed
' most bitterly from the time of his sentence to the awful
moment of his death.

At 12 o'cldok he was brought on the fatal scalold, i
and after a portion• of the Burial Service had been read
by the Clergyman, he was launched into eternity. His
sufferings appeared to be of short duration. After
I banging the usual time, his body was placed in a shell,
and given to the surgeons for dissection.
We understand this wretched man was a native of
Blackburn, and was by' trade a papermaker ; but that
latterly he had earned his livelihood by carting in the
neighbourhood of Manchester. He has left several
children, who, by his unfeeling behaviour, are thrown
orphans upon the wide world. We ate informed that
he was a Methodist by persuasion, and that a Minister
of that religion attended upon him in prison.--iliax-

EXICUTION or J. HATE/ -..Friday this blood-stained
criminal, for the murder of his wife, suffered the ex
creme sentence of the law at Limer;ck. He was attired
in a white flannel jacket and trowser., supported by the
Rev. Mr. O'Meally, Roman Catholic curate of St.
John's parish, his arms were pinioned from behind, and
his head uncovered. He turned round end made three

low obeisances, then addressing Mr. Roche, the first
turnkey, exclaimed, is 1 give you my blessing, Mr.
Roche. With considerable exertion Mr O'Meally at
length prevailed on him to kneel down and make an
act of confession, accompanied with a declaration of
forgiveness to all who miAht have injured firm. This
done, be sprung upon his legs, and though his mind
did not yet appear perfectly reconciled or at ease, for
his looks sore sullen and unsteady, he said, 4. I am now
very willing to die f r this." These were the la,c words
he uttered ; the clergyman drew the cap over his face,
took his farewell, and nodding to the executioner, who
caught the signal, the drop fell with a loud noise.
Saturday evening, as a person, named Baniett, was
proceeding from Kensington to Brompton, through a
Darrow lane leading to the
.latter place, he stumbled
over the body or a man who was extended across the
road. Mr. Barnett was proceeding on his way, when
the fellow whistled, and two other ruffians instantly
came up, and the whole party. knocked Mr. Barnett
down, tilted his pockets of 80s. and beat bias in a most
brutal manner. Some of the gang then inoposed, with
horrible imprecations, to murder the unfortunate. Man,
but they ultimately made off without carrying their
horrible design into execution, leaving Mr. Barnett in
shocking state.
Yesterday morning a daring burglary was committed
in the house of Mr. Jameson, Yorkminster.place, City.
