COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, DUBLIN, Juvx 47.
SEDUCTION.
ANnE MURRAY 9. JOHN DRERITON.
.

The damages in this case were laid at MO/.
Mr. PENSEVATIIER stated the case ; the plaintiff
was a widow, residing at Donadea, in the County of
Kildare. During the lifetime of her husband, who
was a farmer, she had lived comfortably and respec-
tably, but after his death was obliged Ito avail her-
self of the protection of a charitable asylum esta-
blished in the neighbourhood, to which none were
admitted but widows of good character. The de-
fendant was a mason by trade, and a farmer, having
upwards of two hundred acres of ground in his pos-
session ; an intimacy subsisted between the family
of the plaintiff and the defendant, previous to the
death or the plaintiff's husband, and continued down
to the circumstance, which was the cause of the pre-
sent action. The daughter of the plaintiff went to
school with the defendant ; she was appointed Sex-
touess to the church of Donadea, and her mother
had the care of it. The defendant paid his addresses
to the J'tughter, and after a courtship of some time,
at length, under repeated promises of marriage, se-
duced her from the path of honour and virtue ; she
became pregnant, and the defendant removed her
from her mother's house to a lodging in Naas, where
they passed for man and wife, under the assumed
name of Smith ; the mother discovering her retreat,
went to the house and inquired for her daughter,
calling her by her real.name, Judith Murray; this

Bow-STREET.—Yesterday a perFon, calling himself
Wi liana Charles Gregory, underwent a long mini-
'nation before Sir N. CONANT and H. BIRNI?, Esq.
charged with having committed a great variety of
frauds and deceptions. Among others, it appeared,
that he had been in the habit of forging the franks of
Members of the I louse of Commons, and had, by as
starain4 false names and fictitious recommenda.ions,
succeeded, though not in holy orders, in obtaining
curacies, the dunes of which he had, until discovered,
performed for several months together. lie had
passed under the names of Dr. 131akeney and Lewis,
and had frequently disguised himself, sometimes by
wearing .a large wig, and at other.% by altering his
dr,•ss, voice, &c. Vickery, the officer, proved the ap-
prehending the prisoner in Cowley-street, Westmia-
ster, I.vhere he went by the name of 11. Holland,
Esq. The officer produced the seal with which he
had sealed all has fabricated letters. The prisoner
was committed.

WoastrlP-3TREET.—Yesterday John Jones, a razor-
grinder, was Charged with the murder of Emma Rea-
der, with whom he cohabited.—Ann Fisher, the de-
ceased's mother, stated, that on Monday last she was
making bric.:ss in a field opposite the White Hart, at
Stoke Newington, in company with her husband and
the deceased, who worked at her needle, when the
prisoner came with' his barrow, both of hem being
in a state of inebriety ; they were quarrelling till
seven o'clock, when he knocked her (1‘,..•.'n. She ex-
claimed—" I shall -die ; I am very much hurt."—
Witness prevented his striking her again ; when he
went away, and the deceased was rerm:ved into thea
sand-house, where a surgeon was procured, who pro-
nounced her in great danger. She was next morning
removed to the moulder's-house, where she was bled,
and every assistance rendered her ; and on Wednes-
day morning she was removed to witness's residence,
when Mr. Parkinson, the parish surgem, attended
her, and did every thing in his power, but she got
worm, and requested the prisoner to be sent for; and
on his arrival she seized him by the hand, saying, in
a faultering voice—" I am going to leave you! Got,
bless you ! I hope no person will injure you!" and
expired about six o'clock that night. The prisoner,
in his defence, said, that he was so drunk at the time
that he had no recollection of what passed. lie ap-
peared much writated during the examinaticn.—Re-
manded.—ln tlle course of the day an Inquest was
held on the body
.; when Mr. Parkinson, the sur"con,
stated, that he had opened the body, and found a rup-
ture in the bladder, the cause of which he could
assign.—The Jury, therefore, brought in a verdict ofi
Manslaughter.

TUN GnEENwterr Murtorns.—Titestlay evening,
as some labourers were cleaning out a pit at the back
of Mr. LUTON'S house, in Greenwich, they found a
large iron hammer, corresponding exactly with the
description of that with which Mr. BIRD and his
housekeeper were murdered, and which was supposed
to be a bricklayer's hammer. The hammer was im-
mediately brought to Mr. litoct:r.tt, the Solicitor,
and an examination is to take place at Greenwich, in
order to trace the identity of the hammer.

ACCIDENT.—An Inquest was held at the Five Bells,
Oldford, on the body of Master/MIN HUNTER, aged
16, who met with his death by the going off of a
pistol. It appeared. that the deceased was the son
of a most distinguished family resident in Scotland,
and who has been for some time at a seminary of the
Rev. Dr. Lindsey, of Bow, where the fatal accident
happened.--Basil William Mare, a young Gentleman
educated in the same seminary, said, the deceased and
himself were pupils in Dr. Lindsey's house. The
day previous to the fatal accident, the deceased and
himself procured fire-arms to shoot at a mark in the
fields, for which purpose they borrowed a pistol, pow-
der and ball. Witness put in the powder, and the
deceased loaded it with hall : previous to their going
out, about four o'clock in the afternoon, they retired
to their chamber, and took the pistol with then: ; the
deceased lay on the bed, and WaS amusing himself by
playing on the fiddle. Witness laid the pistol out of
his hand on the scat of the window, while he sat doss n
and leaning his head on his arm, and went into a
dose, from which lie was shortly afterwards' alarmed
by the report of a pistol close to him, and, on start-
ing round, he perceived the ci,lce:ssed lying on his
bed, and weltering in his blood. The pistol was dis-
I charged, and lying by his side. The blood was
gushing copiously from his temple, and the bed was
covered with blood. The deceased was then dying.
Witness then sent for Dr. Matthews. Dr. Litalsey s
housekeeper, on hearing the report of the pistol,
came into the room, and witness pointed out the
dreadful situation of the deceased, and she instantly
sent for Mr. Ricardo, a surgeon, who came, but the
deceased was quite dead. Witness apprehended that
the deceased removed the pistoi from the window,
and placed it by his side, witti the-muzzle towards

Wm, and that whast playlntt ca the Elle, t!. of the bow might have touched the triv,
cause:l the pistol" to go off. The deceasw e
