kik C. Hawkins would give me £lO more, which
would make 20. He then went into Jenkins's house.
'When I came back my wife gave me a ES note.
On his cross-examination by Mr. SW ANN, he said—
I remember Mr. Serjeant Pell asking me if there
were many such rats as myself at Penryn? I said,
there were plenty of them at our Town-quay ; but
I cannot remember what passed at the Committee,
er any such privileged things. I sailed as Steward's
mate, but I never was a sailor. I itinskw the day you
rd this conversation with me was the, Bth of June,
tnunse I had received, on the precious Saturday,
my six weeks' wages as a miner. It was.:Mr.Uryne
Who was looking out at a window the roll of notes
rolled about the town strangely enough Oahe last
election. I don't know that Sir ChristoplOr ilaw-
hins and you are. on separate interests, but.l know
that you promised.me £lO for him. -
Ann Carter, wife to last witness, knows Mr, Swann:
saw him with her husband at halc-past fve on the
T•'..onday morning: saw them talking together: after
they parted, Mr. Swann came in to me. Ile said he
and my husband had been talking pagether; he then
took out a handful of notes, slipped down one, and
said, be should see me again in the course of a week,
and would give me something more: when her hus-
band came home she gave him the note. Thursday
evening he came again, and asked if my husband
was at home, and whether he had given his other
voice; he then went to his pocket, gave n:e a £1
note, and told me it would get.me a 'Sunday's din-
ner for the family. He then desired n.e to ask my
husband to give him his other voice. . .
.Cross-examined.—She said, when -I met you with
?Ir. Dyson, I did not make any representation of our
27-Jedy ;. it was a ttcrive:nonth before; I knew better
than that ; I was put up to it before.—Why, you
krow it svas electioneering time, and one is not to
ask for things at such. a tore as that. When I did
ask you to give me something, it was before Lawyer
John's door, a twelvemonth befme: I told you,
_if
you -could assist me but with a shilling,• would
thank yoti : but you then said, you couldn't, and
you wouldn't. When I met you with Mr. thson,
we only talked of my husband's vote. Your call on
riewbh Mr. Earle was after the election: you asked
me, whether I was the good lady you ladgiven the
.I'.l note to, I said, " You know, Mr. riwapo, you

gotten it? You are very welcome, Mr. Swann, to
get any body to remember more of that conversation;
you wouldn't have so many enemies as you have, if
you had not been so much oat to your *word s. you
were not a gentleman to your word in ruaay particu-
fasu s it won't do to go too far, you .know, Mr.
Swann ; but I knew that you were not to your
word, and I don't think I aced gr: no any tardier;
and 1 won't, that's more.
,John Bray voted for Mr. Andetalon and. Sir C.
1-k.wkins; saw Swann on Tuesday morning at the
eledieti be' said to ine, ." I don't. want you, I want
your wife? £4;e was dans stairs. I went up stairs,
acd left Swami with my wife. He had asked me the

Lad girds bath voices away to Sir C. Hawkins:and
ty Mr. -Andeldoh.. He said, I clad withdraw if I'
chore it. I said; I could not ; 1 did not like to be a
tern-coat. He said, " li you, 'why not you as veil
ai another? There are 50 turn-coats ; even the
Town-clerk." My wife came up stairs ; she had in
her hand what he had given her.. I saw it; it was
five £1 notes. • •
Cross-examired.—You told me to go up stairs. I
did tot tell my wife to send it back again, of course..
Ann Bray (wife of the last witness).—ltenieinhor
S:rann costing to my house or. the above-met.tiz-,acd
day; he took out a book; he told me what rates I
owed ;,there was a thsconzsc about them ; he said he
would be a friend to toe, if I would keep a still
tonne. He turned his back. on me, and threw to-
Wards me a £1 note. He asked me, if my husband
giveir Ins voice ? .1 said, he had given both. He
atir.ed me to entreat my husband for his vote. I said,
I as not his keeper. He said, my husband might
withdraw. He took out a bundle.of notes, and said
Lc could satisfy me if my husband thus not there.-:-
My 4 ashand then wertt up gaits. He took out the
five LI notes, and offered. them to.nte. I wouldn't
teo,e them, because my husband wanted £2O. I then
v,•ent up stairs, told my husband of it, came down,
ai:d refused them again. Mr. Swann than put one
of the notes in the collar of my bed-gown ; he then
said, " the woman, why are you such a fool to
yourself?, why. don't..you take them ?" Then he put
the' other 4A in my hand, and he said he would give
me £l5 afterwards to vote for him and Sir Chrtsto-
p!•.er, but only £lO if he only•votesi for Anderdon
and him. Mr. Swann said, " I depend on you, to
overcome your husband; every wife can overcome
her husband; mine does me."
Mr. Jenkins.—l gave Mr. Swann a note of hand
for £20.. I gave it him for having paid £2O to one
Glamors for me. The note was here put in'
and proved it was as follows
" sib day of Mardi, 1814.—1 promise to pay Henry Swann.
ACM value received. (Signed) " JEN K INS."
A memorandum written on it, dated April 10,1814,
stated the consideration of this note to be a note
drawn by Jenkins on Swann, in favour of Glason;
and accepted by Swann, who afterwards' paid it.—
This memorandum was signed by Swann. • •
Cross-examined by Mr. Swanrt-1 had voted for
you, you know, Nr.. Swann ; and so you ordered
Gluon to be paid out of your generosity you know.
When you said, " I don't care if you vote against
me," you added, " I will put the note of hand in force
against you." I took the note to my own house. Mr.
Anderdon's friend came to me and asked for the note.
I said yes, if they, would give me the money 1 would
let them have the ciote;.and that they 'should have it!
again when the note should be returned to me.
Peter Jenkins, the younger, and MaryWals.carro-
barated the above.
Mr. Swann, 'rho was his own Counsel as the oc
cation, then made a long address to the iburt.• He
confessed the facts relative to Jenkins, which formed
the only count in the information on which he was
convicted. He complained of being deprived of the
assistance of Mr. Serjeant Pell, his legal adviser be-
fore the Committee. He went through a long history
d his connexions with the Borbugh of Penryn, to
which he stated himself to have been a great bene-
fastor. Me declared that, as principal Manager of
the Waterloo Committee, be had brought £340,000
into the Borough, which being spent in labour, had
k.ccu molt widtly advantagccen to the poor. He

then protested against this prossecution a$ a paltry
blind to induce people to think that such damings as
these would mend the holes in the constitution ; little
offenders like himself were to be the scape-goats for
the mightier sinners in power and place. He invoked
' the spirit of reform to disavow such paltry measures
—to refuse such unworthy sactitices—to disdain such
Cajolery and deceit. Ile declared himself to be a
martyr to the purity of election, protesting that there
never was a purer return than the last for lienryn
stated himself to be a disciple of economy, which he
promised to support if he should ever again be it the
House. lie concluded with making an objection to
the evidence given on those counts in the indictment
which charged him with having given money to ob-
tain votes, as being insufficient to support such
charges, the means made use of being proved to be
Bank Notes, which do not come within the ln.gal
meaning of the word money. In support of this ob-
jection, Young's case was cited as reported, 14 East,
402; and that of Pickard v. Banki, as proving such
a distinction to exist. The Judge finally admitted
of the objection, which rendered all the counts of the
information insufficient, excepting the two last, which
contained the charge of corrupting Jenkins, and
which were free from the erroneous c:scription which
was considered fatal to the others.
Mr. Serjcant PELL shortly replied, and
Mr. Justice BEST then summed up the evidence'
which had been given with respect to the attempt to
corrupt Jenkins s vote, the only chaige on which
they 'bad to deliberate. He alluded to site confession
which had virtually been made by the defendant of
the matelial facts in issue. Ile sheaved the fallacy
of such attempts as bad been made to influence their
judgment by appeals to the modern notions preva-
lent with regard to reform ; and assured them that
they would contribute, he was quite sure, most effec-
t wally to the welfare and support of the Constitution,
by giving their verdict according to their consciences
and unswayed by any other feelings than those of
, purity and justice.
The Jury retired for a few minutes, and then re-
' turned with a verdict (.1 Guilty on the last count.—
, One of the Jury desired to observe, that they wiflied
to express their regret that any allusions had been
made to their political feelings, as if they would be
influenced by them rather than by their oath.

-
THE IClbia t. TIIIVEEII.
This was an indictment-against the defendant, for-
merly a Lieutenant, but resident for the last six or
seven years in St. Mary's, Scilly, for an assault upon
John John, Esq. The prosecutor described himself
as confidential agcy.:: to his Grace the Duke of Leeds,
President of l.is Cs...w.cil, and Acting Magistrate for
the island. fie state.l, that on a Tuesday in Novem-
ber last, between seven and eight in the evening, he
was called cut of his rotni, where he had a party at
tea, to speak to I),P, Trembarth, the high-constable,
respecting a person whom Ti exr.bai th had in custody
The defendant shortly afterwards arrived, and said,
he was come to make an affidavit in the matter. The•
prosecutor told them that had come at a very
unseasonable hour, especially as they had had the
whole of Monday and Tuesday to prepare their afli-
davits. The defendant insisted on the affidavits being
immediately taken: upon which the prosecutor said,
"-Since 7ou insist upon it,. I will not do it, especially
as you hate brought such a tribe with Ton." Upon
this the defendant strack the prosecutor twice, and
cut his lip. The prosecutor's friends interfered,, and
pushed the defendant out ,of the hcape. - Upon the
cross examination, it appeared that the prosecutor
I was the only Magistrate in the island qualified to
'lake an affidavit ; and that it was necessary fay the
parties to be there that bt ; upon this, the prosecu-
tor said, be was not to -he supposed to knots this.
The JUDGE th,,n7 teldthe Jury that the assault being
clearly proved, they had ncthing to do but to find
the defendant

SIIILOPiTSI RE Assrms.
JAMES u. IzERBEItT.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is
; blacksmith at Cleobury, against the decendant. who
is a widow lady, residing in the same place. fur da-
mages sustained by reason or the plaintiff's havi,ig
been deprived of a marriage between him and
cousin Of his, in consequence of a libellous letter snt
.to the young lady's father, and alledged to have be.:n
written by the defendant.
In opening the case, Mr. Ptittra observed, that if
there were one species of baseness greater than another,
it was.that of a persen writing an anonymous letter
with intent to injure any individual. To prove his
case, the Leatned Counsel called the father of the
ycung lady, who resides on, and farms his own pro-
perty at Lawton•hall, near Leomirs:er; by wiles:
evidence it appeared, that I.is daughter, Elizabeth
was about 30 years of age; that he could give her
£3OO, and if necessary £5OO more ; that the plaintiff,
was his brc tiler's son, and kept her company, to which',
he had no objection, farther than he thought them
too nearly related ; hut that the plaintiff asked his
permission, and he allowed it to go ca. In the month
of may he received the following letter :
" Mr. James,—Sir, being the father of a family?
think it my duty.to inform you, that if your daughl.
ter marries her namesake at Cleobury, she is in this
world undone for ever. The demands he will have
upon him, in a few mouths, will be great indeed.
His conduct has been dreadful. I tell you as a friend."
Addressed, " Mr. James, at Lawton Ccttage-farm,
near Leominster, Herefordshire."
This letter the witness gave to his wife, zrho read
it ; he then gave it to his daughter, who alterwards
broke off the acquaintance.
Mrs. Clee stated, that she had been very intimate
with Mts. James; she also knew the defendant very
well. In AWL the defendant sent for her, and asked
her, whether.the match was likely to take Flace be-
tween the plaintiff and Miss James ? She replied,
she thought it would, and in. amery short time. The
defendant then asked, whether the nan* was Lctor.-
Ilan or Lawton-hall, and the witness told her. On
the evening of the 11th of May, witness saw the de-
fendant eget'', she having sent for her. On her ar-
rival the defendant asked her, among other things,
whether the plaintiff had beet) at Lawton ? to which
she answered, she believed he. wept on Saturday.
The defendant then asked, " Is he come back ? Wit-
noes replied, she did notiknow; on which the defog-
dant said, " Oh! you'll see him, you'll see him,". at
the same time nodding her head significantly.
This witness (who gave her evidence with much
animation and acuteness), on her cross-otamination
by Mr. l'All;WOU, afforded the- Csurt a consiilgr4ble

•
.degree of mirth. She, as well as another witness, of
the name of 'Morris, said, they believed the hand-
writing of the letter was that of the defendant. On
their cross-examination, however, it appeared, that
neither of them knew perfectly the hand-writing,
without comparing it with another letter which the
plaintiff had, and that Morris had °llly seen her
write a receipt eleven years ago, and direct a letter
which he took for her to Worcester, about seven or
eight yea:s ago.
The plaintiff called several other witnesses who
were acqti:inted with, or friends of the defendant;
to prove l.er handwriting, or that they had ever
heard her speak cf this letter; but they all proved
the direct contrary. One witne,4, Mrs. Cole, of
‘Vorcester, was called, with the intent of proving
that the letter in question was sent in a parcel to her,
and that it was afterwards by her put into the Post-
Office. Mrs. Cole first demanded her expenses, but
it appearing that she had received one guinea, exclu-
sive of her expenses to and whilst at Shrewsbury, and
that a chaise was at her service to go, home, it was
decided that she had had enough. She then proved
very satisfactorily, that she had never seen the letter
before, nor did she put it, or know of its being put,
in the Post-Oflice.—Plaintiff nontuited.

LT tEItICK ASSIZES.
Jokn Wall and Rickard !Vail were indicted for the
murder of Philip Stack, James Stack, and Pa:rick,
l'omkivs, by shooting the two former, and throwing
the latter out of a boat into the River Shannon, on
the 11th of Februarti, 1818.
Mr. QUIN stated the case, in support of which he
called a number of a itne:scs, particularly one Denis
Macnaurira, a participator.
. The Cm ET BARON then charged the Jury, describ-
ing the case as one of the most heinous and aggra-
vated guilt. He particularly dwelt upon the descrip-
tion of evidence, and recommended to the Jury to
satisfy themselves fully of the credence to he given
to it before they prondllnced a verdict. No execution,
he said, ever took place upon a non-corroborated case,
where a participator was the witness—if the Jury saw
no corroboration in the evidence, they ought to ac-
,' gait ; and if they found M'Namara took no part in
the niurders.-he stood like any other witness, and his
tory was entitled to belief.
The Jury then retired, and remained for half an
hour, when they required the attendance of M‘Nama-
ra, who was aain sworn, and said the attack upon the
boat was after nightfall—it was inoonlight—knew
Parker's boat by theblack piece babel mainsail. The.
Jury then returned to the room, tad an Almanack
having been procured, which did not hear 114Namara
out in his assertion of the night being moonlight,
they I einained for a short time after, and returned
iwith a verdict of Na GLety.
