Me. Boar'twirl; --On Monday last, Mr. Cork
burn 'sieved the Court of Jeviciary, at Edinburgh.
that Mr. Itorthwick should be allowed all his est:
p, netts, together with restoration of the property ',siz-
ed upon by the officers of the Court. Mr. Mc Neill
stated that Mr. Alexander bad not relinyished hie
charge against Mr. fierthwick, hut was prosecuting it
in a civil action before the Magistrates of G:derOW ;
and that certain papers which had been obtained from
Mr. Borth wick, fur the criminal process, were reqnired
'o be produced in the civil action at 64-gow. The.
Lord Justice Clerk ssid be thought tint to grant ell
that was now applied for would go to prejudice the
pending civil question, and the rest of their Lord-
ships concurring in this opinion, the Court refused
:he restoration of the papers and document.; bat
found Alexander liable in expenses; allowed an ac-
count thereof to be given in; forfeited the bond of
caution granted at raising the criminal letters, bat
ordered the cautioner to be heard against the dentani
for subjecting him in expenses.
°critics IN Islcomaxe.---Oo Monday night last, a
very wanton and violent outrage was committe I in
Newgate, on the person of " Little Waddington,"
after the time of locking up. lo the course of the
day, it appears, Waddington, being unwell, had re-
tired, for the sake of quiet, to an empty Ward, an•!
this being considered an offence by the Wardsman, lie
determined to have him punished by the prisoners.—
The mode of punishment proposed was tossing in a
blanket, and this purpose, in spite of WAddington's
entreaties, was with great violence carried into elec..
On Waddington resisting, the Wardsman, an athletic
man, began to beat him brutally with Lis lists. W.
crying out for relief, the watchman on the top of the
prison looked into the yard, and reprobated the
outrage.; aid one of the Turnkeys coming imme-
diately afterwards, prevented further violence. lo
the mean time Waddington war metering severely.
flaring begs repeatedly beat against the pavement
his back and loin* were mach injured ; both his eyes
are dioessloored, and ono ouch swolo ; and his head&
even now, appears entirely covered with bruises. The
officers of the prison to whom, in this affair, nu blame
whatever attaches, humanely removed him Li:mediate-
ly to the Hospital-ward, and on Tueeday the Sheriff'
visited him, and appointed the following day to invet.
tigats his case. The in►estigation, accordingly, took
place on Wednesday, before Air. ALDERM VN WOOD, in
the Governor's parlor; and the result was that the
Wardsman, whose name is JAMISON, and who had
been sentenced in September 1820 to seven years
tesosportation, was immediately removed to the Con-
vict yard, to be sent off with the next draft. He had
boasted, it is s►id, daring his wanton outrage, that he
should not be hurt for killing a Radical.
Accounts from the Cape of Good Hope state, there
has not been rain there for these 2 years.
Tue New LONDON BRIOOII.—The sew bridge is
proposed to be erected as near as possible to, and not
exceeding 170 feet from the woe side of the present
bridge, and to afford a clear water-way of not WA
than 690 feet. It is to be faced with granite, and to
Consist of five arches ; the centre arch to rise 23 fret
above high water mark of an average spin v tide, ac-
cording to the Trinity House standard, which is shewn
spa the face of the present bridge. Proper stairs of
granite are to be provided. The acclivity of the road
way, to and over the bridge is sot to be steeper than
one foot in 26 feet. In the instructions for the en-
gi , architects, and others, who propose to furnish
the Commitee for letting the Bridge House estates,
with designs or models and estimates for the erection
of tie new ►ridge, a desire is expressed that the bridge
should be worthy of the metropolis ■od the present
cultivated state of science; due regard being had at
the same time to economy, and to the convenience of
1lb" Wait tilflet mid seder the bridge, doting the pro-
gem and after tbet completion of the works. A de-
sire is also expressed that as little sacrifice be Made of
the property at both ends of the bridge, for the for-
mation of the necessary approaches, as is Consistent
with the character of so important as entrance to the
of heathy.
tag.—Last night between ten and eleven o'clock, a
re broke out on the premises of Mr. Frederick Ebo,
fur and skin d , in Old Brawboose-yard, St. Jobs's-
street, which its consequence of a deficiency in the sup-
ply of water, and the premises being old and consisting
chiefly of wood, spread with great rapidity and soon
caught the duck manufactory of Mr. Odes adjoining.
By the great exertions of the Firemen the fire was got
under about 12 o'clock, but both the buildings were
completely destroyed. Mr. Ehn, we regret to hear.

pounds; no part of which was insured.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Joss 20.
PRIVATI MEANINGS. _ _

His Lordship has not sat publicly on either this or
the preceding-Tuesday, ;minimally 12 o'clock, being
occupied in disposing of a case of some important* in
his private room.
Air. Hatton held in his hand a petition from Richard
Street, the plaintiff, in the came i• which Priscilla
Street and others are defendants. TM object of the
present application was, to prevent any intercourse be-
tween his daughter, a ward of the Court (to when a
legacy of 400/. had been bequeathed, by her gebeiie
father) and a young man named Horatio Reeves. a
druggist, at Exeter. Richard Street. the .reputed
father, stated in his petition, that the girl wee only li
years and Are months of age; that she was the only
child, and that be had always treated het with the
greatest kindseis; that iedepeadent of the legacy of
4CO/., she bad great expectatioss at the death of tiot
petitieser. Ths petition the. watt es to stale, that
the mother, Priscilla Street, em of the defeadants,
had acted very improperly in favouring the yeuug
mates addresses, and in endeaveari or to promote bit
marriage withter daughter. That the petitioser rte
rnonstrated is the impropriety of such modest, awl
expressed his unalterable determination sot to commit
to such a connexion, or to permit any sub marriage
to i4ke place. whereepos she (the defendant) locket
bereeif sp. together with her 'asst. Is bin (the plass,
rigs) dwellieg-hease, and refused him soy elotrsoes
thereto; and in order to prevent his daughter from
being carried off by the mother's lid. to was obliged
to keep watch both day asd.sight. He bad made all
applicatiup to Hems, requestieg him est to makeaay
inch attempt. but the young man had expressed his
deternaleatios to carry his intentions lets effect by
every unease is his power. The Learned Ceassel saW •
that as this was the cue of a ward of the Court, sod
es this marriage would be most prejudicial to her Ass
tare efpeetatiese, be bad no doubt bat that his Lori
ship would grace the object of the pedtioo. by leaning
his injunction.
The Loan Cnatecettos suggested that Mr. Horse
should tab as isjusetios apical the Lady who locked
the girl up also.
Mr.flioaua acquiesced. and As isjunctiona were
aecorangly issued.
cOnTaierr OP erten?.
Mr. Trotter, a person of gentlemanly sprigging'
and who bee in the same matter bees several times he.
fore the Court, was this day brought up on Babette
Corpse. This gentleman bas been committed for al.
'reed contempt, we understand, sines the month of
November last, on the motion of the plaintiff, is two
distinct bills, the one is the matter of Trotter ad
Trotter, the other in that of Thompson sad Trotter, for
refusing to answer to certain interrogatories put labia,
touching matters Involved in those causes. Ye. T.
ter was brought up some time back is oho enotetitor
the officer of the Marshal of the King's Beech spoil •
writ of Ashes& corpse, in order to argue against his ow
committal ; bat the merits of the ease could not then
be entered into, and Mr. Trotter was ordered to be
brought up on the following Saturday. Unfortunately,
however, the tipstaff of the King's Beach, conceiving
that he had performed his duty by delivering over his
charge to this Court, had retired, and the difficulty
that then promoted itself was how to dispose of
the prisoner. The Lord Chancellor was applied to in
the emergency. sad Mr. Trotter was again ordered iato
custody. The prisoner, upon his being brought into
Court this day, held two petitions in his bud, I.
which be complained of circumstances, stating, that
the officer into whose custody be was ordered, bad by
force carried him to the Fleet prison, without any war-
rant to the warden of that gaol, imaged of the King's
Bench ; sad also of the informally attending all the
forme throughout the proceedings. The Lord Chan-
cellor over-ruled these objections, at the same time
offering to defray, at his own cost, all ebarges attend-
ant on the informalities of which his Lordship maimed
himself the origin, In sot intimatiag to the officer that
be was to remain is 'neediest'. The prisoner was re-
speeded to the King's Bench, and ordered to be brought
up on Tuesday next, is order that the other petitios
might be beard.

In eensequesce of having received the certificate
of the Court of Ring's Bench, stating the opisioa
of that Court that the defendant bad set infringed
the plaimdfra copyright by the performance of Lord
Byron's tragedy of Marino Rehm, at Drury-lane
Theatre, the Court dissolved the injunction, and ordered
Mr. Murray to pay the mots.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.— Jung 20.

THI LINO V. COLLINS AND OTIISILS.

Mr. 01711 Di Er proceeded to addrow the Court on be-
h Alf of Mr. Hills. He followed the Solicitor O

analysis of the evidence, which be oentended all proved
that the defendants bad 'acted bona fide in refusing
the license, and with the best and purest intentions.—
Ap to his own client, Mr. Mills, whose character bad
affrays stood far above the breath, of suspicion, there,
really was no pretence for imputing a corrupt motive,
as the whole case against him consisted in his 161111 h
i.ig given his vote with Dr. Gaskill and others vilest
Mr. Meek. Here

The I.oan Cum Jurrtca interposed. and said
that the Court were satisfied the case ought to be
sebsuitted to the consideration of another jury. It
seemed very possible that the verdict was influenced,
■et by the evidence In the cense. bat by prejudices
derived from other sources. There was no proof
offered of any corrupt motive. except with reference
to the house of Mesa and Co. and the jury having
mtcatived the existence of this motive, there was no
other impulatioa ea which their verdict could be sup-
ported.
Mr. Justice BATLEY was also new eonvinced of the
propriety of a second trial. In the earlier part of the
argonaut be bad eatertalned doubts on the subjects
but these were now entirely removed from his naiad.
There were circumstances in the case which, at first.
eppear4 liable to sasplcion j bat they were satisfse
eerily explained by the evidence. The LearnedJudg•
roared kw* a ■irate revive 0! several points of +b.
evidence. and concluded by esiiriting hie opinion the
the rale should be made absolute.

Mr. Jamie(' HOLIoYD shortly expressed his concur-
