COURT OF KING'S BENCH. FEBRUARY tit
HABEAS CORPUS.

Mr. MAIIRYAT moved for a writ of Maros Corpse,
to be directed to a married man (whose name, sa►d
the Learned Counsel, it is unnecessary to mention)
commanding him .to bring up the body of a young
woman, aged eighteen, whom he had taken from her
f►►ther's house. Toe father had traced them to the
Minories, near the water side, and had ascertained
that the party had taken a pa►sage to carry the infant
to America.

Lord ELLENIOROUGH.—Take your writ.
Mt. F. WILL' tits moved for a Habeas 00., to'
bring op the body of a young man, named braid),
the son of a Gentleman residing at Cirencester,lroin
Cornwall j•il, to which he had been committed Oa it
charge of wounding a young Gentleman with a gun.
The case disclosed in the affidavits in moult 01 the
motion was to this effect :—The priscner and sonic
friends want out shooting, and some game springing
up, he fired his towlktg piece, part of the contents ul
which unfortunately tatted in the arm of • Gentle,
man attached to another shooting party, and broke
the limb. For this of fence the defendant had been
committed ; and now the Learned Counsel objected
to the form of the commitment, inasmuch as it did,
not state that the party had pcinted his gun at the
person wounded, nor state that it was dune with a
malicious intent.—Writ ordered.

• 110LIDAYILX PART& FAITHFUL.
The Couirr gave judgment in this case, whch was
a motion made in last Tom, calling upon the Signer
of the Writs to spew cause why lie refitted to sign a
writ of attachment of privilege on the sth of Novem-
ber, Gunpowder Treason, on the ground of its being
a holiday, and why he should not pay tho costs of
the applicatirin. The Court held that as the sth of
November was ordained by the 3d of Jac. I. to be
kept a holy-day, in the morning part of which, all
the subjects of the realm were enjoined. to attend Di-
vine Worship, the officer might devote his time to
public worship if he pleased, but he had no right to
charge extra fees for doing business in that period of
the day at 'which he was enjoined to attend Divine
Services Hele the officer did not appear to have de-
manded any lee, nor to bave acted with any intpro
NT feeling, aad therefore the Rule must be Ind&
absolute, but without costs.

Mauston House—Yesterday the LORD MAYOR 'ills
applied to by the friends of a young Lady who lett
her parents on Thursday last, in the company nf' a
music-toaster, a married man. The object of the ap-
plication was to obtain the assistance of the city po-
lice in the recovery of the girl from her seducer.—
The Loan Matto& immediately dispatched two offi-
cers, with a search warrant, to a hodse in George-
street, Minories, where intelligence had been received
that the fugitives were. When the officers entered
at the front door, those of whom they were in pursuit
escaped at the back of the house, and were seen by
some of the neighbours running along the Minories.
The officers were indefatigable, but they have not
yet succeeded in their object. The state in which
the friends of the young Lady appeared at the Man,
don House is indescribable.. One of her relatives
burst int' tears while he described her person, and
said he never knew her by other name than that
of his "little darling."' -She is eighteen years of age.
The music master ii between thirty and forty, and
has two children by his wite, front whom he has been
for some time separated. The uotortunate girl had
been for n fortnight in a state of mind which her
friends called " most disturbed and inconsolable."
Upon the Amy of her flight, which site accomplished
when her parents and sisters were at cards, she was
observed to he eves psore than usually '• pensive and
affectionate." The night of that day was spent in
distraction and despair by those she abandoned. and
her absence was attributed to self-destruction rather
than to that which her whale former conduct had
been contrasted. The real cause was soon ascertained.
Such intelligence has been received upon the subject
of the elopement as to remove any doubt of the re-
covery of the young Lady. The correspondence
was generally left at the house of a tallow-chandler,
isl fhb Minories. The name adopted by the ynting
Lady upon the occasion was Caroline Meinvoth.

Mnwsion-Housit.--Yesterday, a sweep, named
Wooldridge, was brought bdfige the Lotto Marva,
charged with extorting. money from several potashes
in the City, tinder false p:etencts. This fellow was
instantly recognised by the Loiw Mayon as the man
who had, during the exansination of the Rioters, come
forward to swear that the drayinan was the person
who first broke the windows of Mr. Beck with.—
&innersley, the officer, stated that one or two of the
witnesses having pointed out the prisoner as being
himself one of the most active among the mob, he at
once declined to be a witness, and escaped from the
Mansion House. The Loan MAYOR now told him
that there was evidence to prove that, he was most
active before the house of Mr.. Beckwith, and encou-
raged the omit, by crying out, Go it, my boys!
break- eivery b-- window:"
The prisoner not only denied having used such ex-
pressions, but declared that he was not near-she scene
of riot. The Loan Mayon asked bow he could be
so abandoned a WIVICiI at to some forward to swear
that the drayman was the person who broke the win-
dow, when now fie utterly denied being on the spot
hirmelf The prisoner said he had only stated than
which be had heard the drayman acknowledge.
The Loan MAYOR ordered him to be remanded until
the necessary witnesses could come forward; and ad-
ded, that as such a ruffian should not be suffered to
escape justice, he-would examine him upon the capi-
tal charge of breaking and entering the shop of Mr.
Beckwith.—Remanded accordingly,
