CARR BOCIL+We are sorry, in the space of a few
weeks, to have again to notice the fatal effects of a
very dangeroes reef of rocks, which extend from the
shore at rifeness fully a mile and a half to seaward,
and terminate in the Carr Rock. The sloop Janet,
of Sp Andrew's, 40 tons register, ELDEit Master,
bound from Alloa with coals, sprung a leak off the
Carr Rock, about six o'clock on the evening of the
6th. The crew, finding that the water gained fast
ppoe them, were making for the shore, to run the
howl upon nalcentie Sands, when she unfortunately
struck on one of the outer rocks of the Brigs, near
the Carr; the crew immeJiately took to the boat, and
landed in safety. The Carr Rock boat, with the as-
sistance of a fishing-boat, on the day following, suc-
ceeded in saving the sails, cables, anchors. and spars,
but it is feared the hull and cargo will be totally lost:
at present bee stern appears at low water; the vessel
is pot insured. BOSIZST Watson(, Lord Smug's
fisherman, who has been resident at Fifeness for about
60 years, is enabled, from what he recollects of the
shipwrecks at the ,Can Rock, to remark, that there
has been, in hie time, Hat least sixty vessels lost upon
the Carr ! Wthe misses her mark one year, she is surei
to hit twice the year following."

LONDON SESSIONS.
Yesterday these Sessions were opened at Guildhall,
before the Right Hon. the LORD IdAeoit, the Recon-
DER, and a bench of Aldermen.

The RECORDER, in addressing the Orand Jdry, ex-
pressed his regret that the number of persons whose
names stood upon the Calendar for trial at the en-
suing Sessions, was unprecedentedly great, consider-
ing the short interval that had occurred since the last
Session. He was, however, happy to add, that the
nature of the several offences imputed to the priso-
ners, did not appear to present any feature of enor-
mity, beyond those crimes which usually flow from
the •ices of a great metropolis.
Maim Rockester was convicted npon two indlet.
menu fur assaults, and for each offence senterteed to
six months solitary confinement in the House of
Correction.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
Yesterday William Harris was indicted for writing
and publishing a libel reflecting on the character of
Richard Wale, with intent to draw him into con-
' tempt, and to subject him to a prosecution by the
Westminster Insurance Office. The prosecutor, it
appeared, was a boot-tree maker, residing is st.
Martin's-lane; the defendant worked with -him as a
journeyman. In MarCh last the prosecutor's pre-
mises unfortunately took fire, and damage was done
to his property to the amount of /8120. He was in-
sured in the Westminster Insurance-office, and, on
his delivering in his estimates, the sum above stated
was paid to him; and so well satisfied were the Di-
rectors with his conduct, that they made him a pre-
sent of £lO. At the time the fire took place the de-
fendant's tools, worth about £6O, were on the pre-
mises, and "ere all consumed. The defendant ap.
plied to the. prosecutor, soliciting, some assistance
towards making up his loss; and the rotecutor gave
him 45, and raised a subscription lor him amounting
to 410 more. This, however, did not satisfy him.
and on the 29th of October last he addressed a letter
to the proprietors of the Westminster Assurance.
.office, entreating fhey would take his case into con-
sideration; and stating, that the prosecutor had been
guilty of a gross fraud upon him; as, although he
now refused to remunerate him fur the loss of hie
tools, the estimates delivered in by bin') of his loss
were such as to cover the loss of all the property, in-
cluding die defendant's tools also. Tbis was the libel
complained of. The acknowledgement of the de-
fendant, that he was the writer, was proved.
Mr. ANDREWS, for the defendant, contended that
his client must be acquitted, the allegation on the
record charged-Nisi-3841a havtevnetielien. • '
libel with intent to subject the peoaecutor to a
cution by die Directors of the Fire-office. Nu inch
intention could be proved in the letter : on the eon.
trary, it was merely; a letter soliciting the charitable
consideration of
.the Directors.—The Jury, after a
short deliberation, found the defendant Not Guilty.
Wl:liars Luke' we: indicted for assaulting James
Skeseis, a Custom-house officer, in the discharge of
his duty, and imprisoning him forop wards of twelit -
' hours. The assault complained of, was stated to
have taken place on the 224 of August. 1814, under
the following enircumetances. The defendant wits at
that time chief sate of the Atlas East lodiaman,
which had recently arrived in the river, and a Cus-
tom-house officer named Barnard was on board. On
the evening of the day in question the prosecutor
having received information that there were contra-
band goods on board the Atlas, went there, and, on
getting on boiled he walked to the "clop, and without
eammunicating to the Commanding Officer as is
usual, the purpose for which be came on board, he
proceeded to start the quaker:, anti to search the lar-
board deck. The defendant, who was the Com-
mending Officer on board, bearing what was going
forward. tient to the quarter deck, and inquired-what
the prosecutor was about The prosecutor said he
was a Custom-house officer, and came on informa-
tion to search. He refused, however, to say who had
given'llim the information, and the defendant ob-
served let him be who he would, lie would make him
a prisoner. He did accordingly put the prosecutor
into confinement; and kept him there tillten o'clock
next morning, when be was taken to a pollee office
and discharged.
Mr. Au.sy, for the defendant, contended, that lie
was fully justified, as the prosecutor, although a
CllStOM•htltae bfficer,, was not authorised in thus
gUing on board the defendant's vessel, without prci-;
Jucing his authority or giving vp the name of thief
person, udder whose information be *olds ealleciallr

Itlippeared also, that no smuggled goods were founds',

,t wiser, and had, by his own improper conduct,
bens ht on himself all the inconvenience be hid suf-1

As he had offered no proof, however, of his itsertion,
he felt it his duty to detain him in custiidY Until he
produced such proof.—He was therefore cOMMltted.

Yesterday, at two o'clock, the proceedings of the
Court of Chancery were nearly being broken in upon
by the eccentric conduct of Mr. Lomas!, against
against whom a Commission of Lunacy had been
established, and who, it may be recollected, was tie
unfortunate Gentleman that shot at Mr. PEACOCK. at
the London Tavern. about seven years since. He
appeared at the door of the Court, dressed in a gown
and cap, similar to those worn by the Westminster
scholars, and had no stockings on ; he was followed
by his keeper and a waterman, the latter of whom
carried a large bundle of papers, rolled up in a most
extraordinary manner. Ore of the officers cf the
Court stopped him at the door, and demanded his
business ? He immediately replied, that he was a
tvalling liarrider, and if the officers would n9t admit
him into Court he would get him discharged. He
was, it appears, well known to the officer., who did
all they could to dissuade him from entering the
Court ; and, after a vast deal of persuasion, he paused
lot a moment or two, turned round upon his heels,
and ran across the square with great rapidity, crying
Halloo, halloo, halloo I He was closely followed by
his keeper and a long train of curious spectators.
Thomday. in the Jury Court of Edinburgh, after
a trial of two days, of an action of damages, at the
instance of PETER CLARK against JAMES THOMSON,
for detention of the ship Perseverance, and of the
person of the prosecutor, who was master and part
owner, the Jury found the defendant liable to the
prosecutor in 4'6,562 19s. Id.
Yesterday morning, Data Beeves, who was, on
Friday last, convicted at the Westminster Sessions,
fee stealing a quantity of onions and p9tatoes from
Mr. Roberts, of Covent Garden Market, was, put.-
slant to his sentence, whipped at the cart's tail, from
St. Paul's Churchdoor round tie Market.
- ALTERATIONS IK TIM OLD BAILEY Count. —The
alterations, as proposed by the Loan MAYOR at the
close of the last Sessions, were completed last night.
The objects are for the convenience of persons attend-
ing the Court, abolition of fees, &c. &c. and to pre-
'tat annoyance to the Jury. The entrance to the
Students' box, which was by the Jury, is now from
a new door immediately on entering the Court) where
the list of prisoners hung, and the Summating Offi-
cers' box, contiguous to that of the Jdry, is taken
away, so that an open. space is here formed. The
Grand Jury box, contiguous to that of the Students,
which at all times was much annoyed from casual
cions passing the Jury, and the clattering of two
, has its entrance from the gallery. The other
alteration is, that the open space between the back of
the Bail Dock and the first door on theright, after
entering the avenues of the Court by the eastern
steps, is fitted with benchei for prosecutors and wit-
nesses, who will enter at that door instead of the one
on the top of the wettern steps. The Court is 40 be
open, and no fees are to be taken.

prisoner, and after her conviction he made interest to
get to see her, on her being taken out of Court. He
then expressed his sudden attachment towards her.
He visited her daily, and found her necessaries of
every kind in abundance. He employed great exer-

convert, and was truly penitent, not only to the Re-
corder and the City Authorities, but by,a petition to

of ground on which the mill stands, in a direct line to-
wards the swifts, not then at work ; but at the mo-
ment of her approaching them. the grinder, unhap-
.pily, pulled up the break. and gave motion to the
swifts, one of which snuck her on the arm, and shat.
tared the,bone to pieces, and before she could get out
of the way of the rototary progress, the nest met her,
and dreadfully fractured her collar-baste and one of
bff thighs, which gave a check to the machinery,
Mil the grinder to suspect that all was not right
ts• he in consequence quitted his mill to sca-
thing into the cause, and was shocked to find the
poor creature lying in the dreadful state above de-
sert, "bed. She was taken up without hopes of reco-
very, and conveyed home, where she Languished
until Thursday, and expired. The Surgeon who
attended observed, that of all the unfortunate objects
