THE ARMY.

The 2Gth and 77th Regiments of Foot marched
into Portsmouth yesterday, and embarked lot Guern-
sey and Jersey.
-Wedneday the Norfolk Local Militia, commanded
by Lord SUFFIELD (the Lord Lieutenant of the
County) were reviewed by General Romxi.ox,
Yarmouth, who expressed great satisfaction for their
steadiness and so:dier-like conduct while on die ground,
and yesterday morning they returned home, 11.iving
been on duty 21 days. _

Wednesday, the 50th tilt. the Ist Regiment of
Herefordshire Local Militia, commanded by Colonel
MAT-rums, on duty in Hereford, were inspected hr
M.ijor-General Cliffs, on the exercise ground of the
Regiment, adjlining the River Wye. A little after
ten the General arrived on the ground, and was re-
ceived with the usual honours : he then dismounted,
and passed tip and down the line, most minutely in.
specting the aims and accoutrements of the men.
On the General's remounting, the regiment marched;
past in slow and quick times and a variety of ma-
nceuvres were executed with occasional firings, the
light company covering ; the whole being ccncl tided
with the formation of the hollow square, advancing
and retiring by the different angles and feces and
firings; on the line being re-formed, tu co vollies were
fired and a capital charge made. 'I:1N General then.
advanced to Colonel MATTIIEWS, and in the most
flattering manner expressed his surprise and approba.
tion at what he had witnessed, hardly conceiving it
possible for any Local Militia in so short a period to
arrive at such perfection, he remarked how excellently
the regiment was officered, and slid he should hot
fail to report to General Wan% how much he Lid
been gratified by their conduct on that day, which
WAS equally honourable to the Officers and the men.
During the whole of the manoeuvres the General :as
in the midst of the Regiment inspecting each coin-
piny and its Officers in turn, with a close attentsidss,
that rendered his approbation dolibly valuable. 'rue
Officers afterwards entertained a vcry large number
of friends with a sumptuous dinner at the Hotel, and
on Friday the iegiment finished their duty, and were
discharged, after having acquitted themsel% es equally
well as soldiers and citizens, and carrying with them
fie good wishes of every inhabitant of Hereford.

LAW JA 1 ELLIGENt:E.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE S.

ABBOT V. NIARRIOT.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a ha-
berciaciier and man-milliner, residing in Berner-street,
Oxford-mad, to recover the sum of £l9. 2s. 2d. for
goods :old .;nd delivered. The defendant is one of
the frail sisterhood. who is sometimes known by the
name of Wily, in which name she contracted the
debt. At others she passed for Mrs. Barton, under
which appella' ion she put in bail originally, Marriott
being the name assumed by her at the time she put
in. bail above. The defence set up was, that the ar-
ticles of the bill were overcharged, and' that they had
been furnished by the plaintiff for the purpose of aid-
ing and assisting in the prostitution of the defendant's
person. Among other articles enumerated, were a
Mary Queen of Scots cap, charged £l. ss. A
ml:fin comet for the head charged the same sum ; and
a lace cap RS. 13s. 6d. —all of which it was attempt-
ed to be proved were overcharged, as well as being
unnecessary articles. The defendant, however, failed
in the defence set up, and the jury found a verdict
for the plaintiff, £l7. 17s. 24.1. being the amount of
the plaintiff's demand, after deducting £l. ss. the
_price of the muffin comet, of which the plaintiff failed
;o prove the delivery.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE S.
KEAT V. MAULE.

Mr. Serjeant SHEPPARD, for the plaintiff; stated
this to be an action to recover the sum of £4l under
the following circumstances. The defendant had sold
k horse to the plaintiff for £5O, on condition that if
he did not suit the plaintiff, he was to be returned on
the plaintiff's paying £2 per month for the time he
kept him. ' After the plaintiff had had the horse for
three days, his eyes became very bad, which were
shewn to the defendant, who desired the plaintiff
not to be alarmed, as he would warrant the horse to
be as sound as any in England. The defendant then
ordered the horse to be bled, and directed some me-'
dicines to be given him ; all which was done, but in.
stead of getting better, the horse's eyes became worse
and worse ; and after keeping him near two months,
the plaintiff offered to return him, at the same time
paying all that was due to the defendant. The horse
was, however, refused to be received by the defen-
dant, and was consequently sent to a stable-keeper's,
where he has remained since the 18th of August last.
William Stevens proved the purchase of the horse,
his subsequent blindness, and the offer of his return,
&c. Cross-examined. The plaintiff is a dyer, add
in his stable keeps a dying copper, but.that could
have no effect on the horse's eyesight, since none of
his other horses hail ever been similarly affected. Se-
veral other witnesses were also called, who all proved
the facts already stated.
Mr. Serjeant Bzsv, in the defence, stated that the
declaration did not mention any agreement like that
proved ; and contended that it was highly improba-
ble that the defendant should ever have made such a
bargain as that the plaintiff should enjoy the use of
this horse for £2 a month to all eternity, if it were
possible for the horse and him to live as long. He
called no witnesses.
The Jury, however, under the direction of the
Learned Judge (Cmasvaac) found a verdict for the
plaintiff. Damages £4l, besides the price of the
horse's subsistance at £l. ls. per week since the 18th

Mr. Manton was next examined. 'The pistol, he
said was his • and from the nature' cif the triggers,
Wing stiff, they could not have been pulled so as to
discharge the pistol without using, some force.
The prisoner, in his defence, said he did not mean
to have wounded the prosecutrix ; he liked her too
well to wish her barm.

Mr. Justice GROSE summed up the evidence with
great humanity, and the Jury returned a verdict of
Guilty—Death.
J. Sisson was indicted fur a highway robbery, by
stopping R. Parker,,Esq. and taking from him a purse
containing 335. 6d. -in silver.
Mr. Parker stated, that on 'Wednesday, the 18th
of April, he was returning on horseback to his coun-
try-house at Mundon, about four o'clock in the after-
noon, when he was stopped by the prisoner, who took
hold of the bridle of his poise with his left hand, and
in his right holding a pistol, and immediately said,
" Give me your money, or I'll shoot you." Wit-
ness refused to give his money at first, when the pri-
soner repeated his threats, and witness deiivered his
purse, in whi-.:h, among other money, was a remark-
ablt. sixpence he had kept three or four years, under.:
an impression that it might; some day or other, lead
to the detection of a highway man, should she be rob.
bed. The prisoner then asked for his packet-book;
which witness refused. The prisoner said, if .41 do
not give it, I will shoot you, for my pistol ,s well
primed. Witness said, he thought there was enough
in the purse to content him. Prisoner then let go the
bridle, and departed. Witness proceeded, and shortly
after met a gentleman named Dixey, to whom he
mentioned the circumstance ; they returned together,
and in a few minutes came up with, and took the pri-
soner into custody. On searching h►m, thLy took
from his pocket a pistol, without any flint or charge,
and also. the witness's purse. Upon the whole, how-
ever, in justice to the unfortunate prisoner, he was
desirous of saying, for a crime of the sort it could not
have been committed with less offence.
Mr. W. Dixey col roborated his testimony.
The prisoner, who was of genteel appearance,
seemed much affected, and had nothing to urge in his
defence, but called some persons to his character.
Mr. Bilbey, his uncle, stated, that he had known
the prisoner from his infancy ; he had been a mer-
chant at Hull, but failed ; after which he vent abroad,
and returned about eleven months since. Witness
thought lie was at times deranged, but always con-
ceived him to be of good character.
Mr. Justice GROSE summed up the evidence, and
the prisoner was found Guilty, but recommended to

of August last.
JUNE 6.— WILSON 9. WALKER.
This was an action to recover the sum of £18.3 on
- a quantity of flax, sold by the plaintiff to the defend-
ant. The flax had been advertised for sale by auc-
tion at a wharf in Thames-street, and the son of the
defendant went and inspected it, bade for it at the
- sale, and purchased it for £75 per ton. It was, how-
ever, afterwards disccvered that the flax was damaged,
and not worth more than AI 10s. per ton.
Mr. Berjeant BEST attempted to set up in defence,
that some fraud must have been practised on the son
of the defendant, who was a person well acquainted with
the qualities of flax, and would not have made so very
unlikely a bargain. This, however, the learned Ser-
jeant failed to prove • and the Jury, under the direc-
tion of the Learned iudge, (LAWRENCE) brought in a
verdict for the plaintiff to the amount of his damages.

OLD BAILEY.

Yesterday J9hn Green was indicted for wilfully and
maliciously shooting at Jane Woodford, with a pis-
tol loaded with a-hall and powder, and wounding
her so that her life was thereby endangered.
Jane Woodford stated, that slit was a servant to
Mr. Manton, of Harrow Hill Common, and that the
prisoner was a gardener to the same family. On the
7th of May, between nine and ten o'clock in-the even-
ing, she was in company with the prisoner, they only
being in the house ; the prisoner asked her if she was
going to bed ? She replied, she was not going to bed,
until the washer-women, who were coming, had arri-
ved. The prisoner said, if she did sit there she should
sit without a fire. He theu raked the fire out. Wit.
ness went towards the kitthen-door, and the prisoner
pulled her back. At that moment the washerwomen
rang at the gate : be went to the gate, using at the
time very abusive language, and would not let the
women in. Witness wanted to let them in herself ;
but the prisoner gave iter a blow and sent her back,
and insisted that she should not admit them. She
then went and unbarred one of the kitchen windows,
and called to the women who were outside not to go
or she should be killed. The prisoner rebarred the
window, and while he was in that act she admitted
the, women. When she returned, there was no can-
dle, and she desired the women to wait until she
went to her own room and struck a light. She re-
turned with a candle, which the prisoner extinguish-
ed. She then went up and struck a second light,
leaving a candle burning in her own room, and bring-
ing down one in her hand ; she also locked her room-
door rbe put the second light out, but having
brought thiLtinder.hoz down in her band, she struck
a light a th;rd time, Which he also endeavoured to
, extinguish, but without success. He then struck
witness several blows, and insisted on her going up
seeirs, which she refused ; he endeavoured to force
• her up, bilt she resisted. During this time he used •
the most opprobrious language, and insisted•th It the
washerwomen should_ leave the house.. Finding he
could hot attain his purposes, he brought three large
dogs from the yard, and at- that moment, one of the,
