COURT OF CHANCERY, DECEMBER 4.
*!BORE Ms 4011101111 TOR OF TOE setts.
WHITTINOHAM AND ARUM D. WOOLIIA.
The plaintiffs in this case are respectable printers
and publishers, and the defendant is the proprietor of
the BLACK Dwane, and a periodical work entitled
the Batrisu STAGE. 'The original application was
made to the LORD CHANCILLOK for an injunction to
restrain the defendant from printing, publishing, or
selling, or crusing to be printed, published, or sold.
a certain part or parts of the work called « the Bri-
tish Stage," which contained extracts from the Co-
medy of " Who's Who, or the Double Inspostot,"
the copy-right of which was vested in the plaintiffs
by virtue of an assignment from the Author of the
Comedy.
Mr. HAar, on rising, said, he was not aware that
any person appeared for the defendant.— [Here Mr.
WooLEn came forward, and said he appeared in his
own behalf ]-Mr. HAAT then proceeded, and, after
going over the facts, concluded by observing that he
had not expected any defence to have been set up,
and submitting that the defendant, as he hid not ap-
peared to have published the parts in question sub-
sequent to the issuing of the injunction, might be de-
creed to pay the costs.
Mr. Bur. Mimed, and submitted, that the pre.
sent wai equally an invasion of the plaintiffs' right
as that which took place with-respect to es Macklin's
Plays," and which the Lord Chancellor had held
to be so.

The MAbTilt of the Rou.s.—Mr. Bell, does the
extract begin with the first page and go regularly on?
Mr. Batt.—No. your Honour. The first extract

commences with pages 12, IS, and 14, and the other
with pages 22, 23, 24, and 25. It could not be said
that they were taken for the purpose of fair
criti-
cism, as out of forty pages there were seven of the
extract ; it was therelore clear that the present was an
invasion, and an account ought to be ordered.
Mr. Woo Lea said the present was one of those lid-
gions causes that never should he countenanced or
introduced into a Court of Equity. The circum-
stances occurred two years ago, and at the time be
was publishing, in fact within one hour after it had
been before the public, a person called on him, and
said that he most not publish the work, or, it he did,
they should seek their remedy against him. The
answer he gave was, that it would be of no conse-
quence to him, for the number of the work was so
small, that it would not be worth his while contest-

ing about it, and he accordingly immediately stopped
the publication. The assertion that the parts, Nos.
13 and l 4 did not contain any criticism on the ex-
tracts taken from the Comedy, he did not deny ; but
the reason was, die work was made up of miscella-
neous matter, and there was not room for it; and
therefore the criticism had appeared in No. 10. He
denied having had any intention to offend; nor had
had, when publishing the first extract, announced
any intention to continue them. The publishing ex-
tracts from works was a course constantly pursued
by the Edinburgh and other Reviewers, as well as
by the hlagarines and Newspapers; and so far from
being thought injurious to the authors, it was consi-
dered to be of benefit to them and the public at large,
as it had the effect of pointing oat these works wor-
thy of perusal. Had the work in question been of
value to him, he certainly should have contended for
the right ; but, as it was, be did not think it worth
contesting tor. He, in conclusion, quoted the case
Dothley v. the Proprietor of R4s,elas." where,
the publishing the whole of the work without the re-'
marks had been held not to call for the interteience
of the Court.
Mr. HART, in reply, said the question was, not as
118 the, mount of the loss for which redemption was
=lit, but whether or not the defendant had in-
the right of the plait:tuff t Authors would tie
liable to a great decrease in the value of their works,
..were the Court to suffer persons to extract and pub-
lish the best parts of them. the observation of Mr.
'Wooler, that he had, immediately on being applied
-too stopped the publication. would nave been of great
importance. but on looking to his answer, he found
lit to be quite the contrary, for there he asserted that
he bad only copied disjointed extracts, which he was
entitled to do, while, in foci, he had copied one of
the most important scenes in the comedy, and again
pursuedthe curate in 'subsequent number of his Vi..rk.
In answer to the observation that the publishing ex
tracts of works was of benefit to the authors, he said,
though it might be justice on the behalf of the pub
tic, it certainly wai not on that of the author to po nt
out what work was or was nut worthy to be read.—
The public ought to be left to their'opinion in that
respect. The present was certainly an invasion, and,
therefore, Mr. Wooler ought to pay the costs, and
give an account of the profits.
The MASTSA of the R01.u.-1 shall look at the
two publications,. and probably be able to ;dee judg-
ment without referring the case to the Master. I
shall want a copy of the work to enable me to do so.
Mr. Wooler, in consequence, handed up six nuns.
ben of the work.—Judgment postponed.
COURT OF KINGS BENCH, DECEMBER 4.
ATTEMPT TO COMMIT A RAPE.
ens SISIO 11. JANIS CLAIMS._

This was an indictment instituted by a person
named Webb, for an assault with intent to comma

a !aye.
M. &ARUM' told the Jury that this was a most
aggravated ease. The prosecutris was the wife of a
I gold chaser, and the defendant was a hair-dresser,
and also a tobacconist, and was shoat 60 years ca
age. It happened that she had sent hist a lock of
her hair, in order to have it dressed, and that when
she called foe it afterwards, he asked bee to walk into
a back parlour, and there committed the acme; ibe
had been at that time pregnant, and a miscarriage
was the consequence of the eutrage. The young
woman informed her husbatid of what happened im-
mediately alter it took place l and when the defen-
ds= was called to account for his conduct, he partly
acknowledged what he had done, apd begged Mc
Vilebb's pardon. Mr. Scaatm midtke landessulod
as attempt would be made to prove the woman a bad,
meter ; but that would be completely repelled-.
William Dawes said, he saw Mrs. Webb, the pro-
se4utris, on the Slat of January last, iq the essiipaAt.i
of the day, and saw her aliens/aids mthe evening ;.,
In the morning she was in goo. health, and is. the
evening she was in strop g by-sires rptis *her htisbanal,
and the apprentiee) sad &sal*, with

.

Clarke, the defendani, was alto there. While witness
WAS there the Doctor arrived. When Clarke was
accused by Mr. Webb of the gross treatment his wile
received frum his, be excused himself by saying he
did not; and aftekwaids he declared he had only
taken Mrs. Webb round the waist; and at the same
time put his arms round the waist of a young woman
named Mary Smith, whe was present, in order to
sliew the manner in which he had put his hands on
Mrs. Webb; but the defendant put his hands so in-
decently, that witness told him he would have knock
ed him down had he served a' sister of his in that
way. Clarke twice expressed himself sorry.
Mary Anne Webb, the wife of Joseph Webb, said
bee husband lived at No. 19, St. James's-walk,
Cletkenwell ;he was a gold and silver chaser. Stte
was married fourteen months. She knew nothing at
Clarke, except having gone two or three times into
his shop tq have her hair dressed. On the 21st of
January shk took a front of hair to his shop to have
ii curled. In the afternoon, about five o'clock, she
went for some butter, and in returning she called for
the hair. There WAS nobody in the shop but Clarke;
she told bins what she came for, and be said -
" Ma'am, your own hair will look beat oorled."—
Witness said 'it would take a long while maim,.
He replied—" Oh no, Ma'am, it won't take lona;,
let tne curl it." He then asked witness to walk int.,
the parlour, and that be would do it as quick as he
could. She walked into the parlour, and instead of
reaching her a chair, he caught her round the waist
and kissed her ; it was a back parlour behind the
shop, he had shut both the doors before this. He
then threw her on the ground ;. sate had on a brown
pelisse, which was buttoned all the way down to the
bottom. Witness told him he ought to be ashamed
Of himself, when he caight her round the waist.—
When be threw her on the ground, he got over her
and she could not breathe. He then tried to put his
hand into her bosom, and to lift tip some of her up-
per garments. She struggled and resisted him; she
struggled very hard with him. The witness here de-
scribed further outran: es, which it would not be fit to
mention, and in consequence thereof she fainted away.
iWitiiess had been married then about three months,
and was six weeks gone with child ; the did not re-
collect what he did afterwards, until she found her-
self sitting in a chair, and the defendant was then
sprinkling her with water on her face. She bey,geo
eel. hard to depart ; he opened the dour aid said
she might go. She went home directly ; her hus-
band was at home; and she immediately told him
how ill she had been used; she was very ill, and had
hardly strength to stand on h r legs. Her husband
went out along welt Mr. Price, with whom they lodg-
ed, and ate fainted away while they were absent.
She was in strong convulsions for three hoots. Ab •ut
two days atter itie miscarried. She has been very ill
ever since, and the least thing makes her start and
jump. She had been at Clarke's shop twice before;
the young man dressed her once.
Cross examined by Mr. Gtutetv.-e-She said she
had used no indecent expression at the time of her
-going into the shop. Being asked it s!ie had ever
been iii the House of Correction : she said, when she
w between 13 and 14 years of age, she had been iii
service, and site took half a crown's worth of half-
pence, for which bet master and father thoughtlpro-
per to send her to the Refuge for the Destitute, and
she was sept a few d ys alter to the House of Cor-
rection ; she never had been there on any other occa-
Si 01) that she knew of.
Were you not sent to the House of Correction, on
a charge of stealing money from Mr. Studding I—l
believe I recollect it now.
When you said you did not recollect having been
'sent to the House of Correction, did you not know
you spoke falsely did recollect it, but was
ashamed to mention it before this large audience.
On re-examination by Mr. SCARLETTI she said she
had been two years in the Refuge for the Destitute;
that she received instruction there, and afterwards
went into service. When young women go out from
there, the Institution gives a box of clothes and a
guinea to those who behave well. She gut her boa
of clothes and a guinea, and was in service in two or,
three different places until she was married.
. Joseph Hoskins, alto was Governor of the female
part of the Refuge tor the Destitute, said this young
woman had been sent there on the 12th of J inury.
1814, and was discharged on the 29th of December,
1815. The. kaiaks receive r.ligioua and moral in-
struction twice a day ; they are also instructed in
.eading and writing. On this witness being asked
it ,any reward had been given to the prosecutrix?
Mr. Cviu.av objecteo to bringing any witness to
the young woman's character where no witness was
called to impeach her character.
The Junta held, that as it was attempted to attack
the witneas's.credibility,. by answers extracted from
herself, evidence as to a reform in her character was
admissible.
Mr. Hoskins was again examined : he said rewards
were given according to behaviour; when this young
woman went away, she bad the tun reward for her
good conduct, and when she quitted in Dicember,
1815, a place was provided for her by jibe Institu-
tion; it was usual also to give them a reward On
their marriage.
Joseph Webb, the husband of the prosecutrix, said
be was at home on the evening of the 21st of Janu-
ary ; she went out at a quarter before five, and m-
ewed about three quarters of as hour after ; she was
Wm much affected, and fell into his arms in a faint-
ing manner, and media complaint.. against James
Coke; she was uhable to stand, and was seated In
chair; the nature of bee complaint was, that of
Clarke behaving indecently to her; he immediately
pent to Clarke's house, ilhd took Mr. Price with him;
about ten minutes after be returned. Clarke followed
him ; witness accused him with attempting the virtue
of his wife.; he at first dented it, and frequently attet
said he was very sorry for what he had done. Here
the witness stated the same facts as those given in
evidence by Dewei. AU this time his wife was in
strong hysterics, and he sent for a medical man.
To a question from Mr. GURNEY, witness answer-
ed, that be never said he would sweat Clarke's poe-
ket ; his wife was before the Grand Jury in May last,
be wirer italic say application to Clarke for money,
be did not wow his asoney, bus made offers to him
.to settle the-business- The very day alter the outrage

With whom it rested ever
Mr. George Shipman, a surgeon, said he was sent
fox on the evening of the 21st of January, to attend

Mt*Welsh_s. he Found her in CoisiulaionTh 1 he AIM+,
ed her repeatedly after; she was pregnant and this:
carried ; she might have been Eve or six Weeks goal
the agitation the was then in., was sufficient in calm
a miscarriage. Witness attended Mrs. Wbbil keirekal
times since, and she was in a weak state of health.
Mr. Gooier addressed the Jury on the part of the
defendant. He said, the whole charge depended oh
the evidence of one return: it was a charge that
could b.- easily made. and not easily tepelled ; there:
fore Juries ought to be remarkably cautious and tigi.
lent in all prosecutions of this kind, because any matt
WAS liable to such an accusation. This prosecution
was alone supported by a woman, who hied be
charged with theft, and who, :o save het finiti Hit
gallows, was sent to the Refuge for the liestittite.'•ta.
1 Here Mr. Gurney produced a plan of the deteridahtie
shop and parlour, which was on Clerketteoll Green;
and to exposed, that any person passing along 'iodid
see or hear when Was going forward. The deteettant
admitted his pti.ting his hand round her waist ; ant(
if the .buy thought he did no more, he most be ac-
quitted, because the charge was not for i sigh*
assault, but for an assaillt with intent to commit u
rape. He should, however, pewit., in addation to
what fell Iron herself, that her character and conduct
bad been so bad as to render her wholly unworthy of
credit. Besides, in her cross-examinant.,, she denied
a fact which sh. remembered very wed, and in doing
so, committed perjury. He should prove, that her
manners were those of a prostitute, going ft) fairs:
and :topping out in fields all night ; and obtruding
herself in a disgusting manner upon i.e. notice of
men. Tae motive of this prosecution was Money, as
he should prove. Another circumstance untavuure
able to this prosecution was the lengto or time that
passed before the charge was preferred. Tney did
not come before a Grand Jury until May, when it'
was ascertained that no money WAS to be obtained...a,
Mr. Gurney then called his witnesses.
Mary Scutt knew Mrs. Webb troth a child. Oa
being Hard what was her charaiter fro :i the Age of 131
Mr. SCARLETT objected to any questions being put
to general character. •
The Alms held, that no detail could be gorse into
as to particular lacts; but to general character might;
Mr. SCAULSTT said, tie only question was, whether
the woman was to be believed on her oath ? and that
was the only sort of evidence he could go into ; for
the woman was not asked any thing as to her general
character for chastity.
The JUDGE said, that general character Might be
given in evidence against a prosecutrix in the case of
a rape, and he thougla it should be given in the case
of a prosecution for an attempt to commit a rape. .
Maly Scott, being then asked by Mr. Gunwar
what had been the character of the young womati.
said, she was a very loose character; she %mild nut
believe her upon her oath ; witness did not think she
knew the nature of an oath. She was always a no-
torious liar. She acknnwledged, however, that she
knew nothing of Mts.Webb since she lett the Refuge.
John Hubbard, a butcher in Clerkeuwell Green,
lived , ithin a ttone's throw of Mrs. Webb, k, ew her
a few weekr after the was married ; and having :ea
°ppm tunit y of seeing her and her meows frequently;
tie cowidered her to be an immodest wonta,.. Mr.
Webb told witness that he would sweat the pocket of
Mr. Clarke. Hr first knew Webb about a year ay.
he had known her first as she came to his shop before
she was married.
Mr. Ecettaerr put several questions to the witness.
who was inconsistent in his statement as to dates.—
He said the night of the trans iction Webb called on
him about five or six in the evening, and it was then
he said lie would sweat Clarke's pocket. Some time
1 A ter the transaction Webb left off dealing with him
for meat. Clarke used to have a great many female
customers.
*John Gillard, a journeyman shoemaker. knew Mtn
Webb at the time of the Tothill Fields fair, the
Slimmer before last ; he had kept her company, and
totted her to be a young woman of very bad eine ,
laver ; on finding that, he left off keeping her come
pany. this witness, in answer to questions put by
Mr. SCAOLETT, said he did not know his age, because
he had no father or mather. SVitness now kapt a stal.
J fiery Stokes, a butcher, said he lived at No. 316
Aylesbui y-street ; knew Mrs. Webb by sight about
the time of her marriage; she frequently passed ali.ng
1 the street, almost every evening; and from what he
saw, and from her behaviour to himself, he judged
her to be an immodest woman. Witness said be
heard of the snare Mr. Clarke fell into, and having
met his apprentice, he told him he could serve Mr.
Clarke if the business came to a trial..
Several respectable persons gave the defendant -a
good character. He is a married man, and has eleven
children.
Mr. ScARLPTT, in his reply, dwelt particularly on
the circumstance of Mr. Gurney not having asked
the young woman respecting any tat that part of her
bad character which be afterwards called witnesses
to prove ; and by that means he deprived her of the
opportunity of vindicating her character on her re,
examination, and deprived him (Mr. Scarlett) of the
means of supporting her character by other witnesses.
He also noticed the great violence offered to the
young woman, her severe illness, her miscarriage,
and the acknowledgment of the defendant himself, .
that he had taken some liberties with the young wo-
man. If, in consequence Ida bad education, that poor
woman had, when a child, committed some faults,
it was proved she was afterwards reclaimed from het
bad habits, and she was rewarded by the Institution,
in which she lived two years, for her good conduct.
If her conduct was afteiwards bad, why were not tEe
parties with whom she lived as servant, called to •
prove that; Ile admitted that this woman did pi!.
ter when very young, but there were instances a •
many persons who, when very young, were addicted
to such habits, having afterwards become most COT- •
rect and exemplary characters. Such was the case
with one of the mosteminent writers of the present day.
Mr. Justice HOLROYD summed up the evidence to
the Jury, and commented on it in a very impartial
manner. The expression used byWebb, that he would
sweat the defendant's pocket, did nut imply that he ,
wanted to get money from him, but that he would"
put him to great expense . and is to the prosecution'
being delayed, Webb swore he had, trnmediatili '
after the transaction, put the business into the *de' .
. t •
of his attorney.
The Jury, without retiring, found the defemlahs
Guilty of the charge laid in the indictshent.—This
trial lasted from one o'clock till six in the meats.
