The defence was, that the ease was neither one of
malice nor indignity. White could not reasonably take
the word of the mad servant as to his (pasotter's) iden-
tity, and Farthing evid►ntly was uncertain. As soon as
the landlady at the 801 l had seen Mr. Earle, he had been
liberated; and there was no evidence whatever of any
subsequent caption. Mr. Earle's own conduct, too, haul
been such as to warrant suspicion that he acquiesced in
the mistake to favour the escape of Sir. Bevan, for he at
first put the question, " At whose suit 't" and Mr. Bevan
was really in the house. At all e►ents the Sheriff's nth-
cer had only to choose between difficulties. and there was
not even a shadow of evidence that he bad used inso-
lence or unnecessary violence.
The Secondary (Sir. Gollingridge) summed op the
case, and the jery found for the plaintiff—Damages M.

ip __ there was no
sufficient ssaarity fur Mr. Sterling's retorts by any .p
eitic tints; and their Lordships, upon consulting toge-
ther, were of opinion that Mr. Ml:aliens wa. en.

ingly.

fsveitscss, JAN. 9.—We fcrmerly mentioned that the
the Board of Aslmiralfy,*ori the application of Sir Js.
Dunbar of Roath, Kart. directed one of his Majesty's
cruisers to receive Mr. Adam, Rector of our As effetely,
on board, in order to ascertain the practicability of cer-
tain observations at sea;the details of which will soon be
made public. For this purpose his Majesty's brig Clip*
rokre, commanded by Capt. Keats, appeared in Kt-mock
Roads a few days ago. The state of the weather and
tides, have hitherto prevented Mr. Adam's discovery
being pot to the test of experiment. A man of war has
not been np so far in the Frith in the memory of the
oldest inhabitant; and in the novelty of the sight at.
tracted crowds of spectators to the shore. At first our
countrymen approached the fertnidable stranger with
due caution : but the officers having, with one Anitting
attendee, received &boat 600 visitors whom enriolts
had attracted on new year's day, a closer intercourse has
since keen kept up. 4/n Saturday, Capt. Keats and his
officers entertained a large party of ladies and gentle-
men of the town and neighbourhood on board, in a
manner whirl' all .vlto were present continue to speak
of with delight. The behaviour of the crew while on
shore has been in all instanees most praiseworthy, the
officers having set the example of propriety by attend-
ing divine service in the eatabliehed church on Sunday
The Cherokee is now lying in the basin of the Caledo-
nian Canal in 12 feet water ; being the first of Isis Ma.
jesty's ships, which has paned through the locks of that
great national work.
A►raae WITH POACHIRS.—On Wednesday the Ist cur
rent, as Mr. Horrocks of Tillycheweo, and Mr. Smollet,
jon. of Ilonhill, were returning from a shooting excur-
sion, accompanied by sous friends and their servants,
they nnexpectedly fell in with a band of poachers upon
the property of the last named gentleman. After some
mantenvrlng, Charles Maxwell, the gamekeeper of air.
Horrocks, and three other men, cause up with the gang,
consisting of seven men, five of whom were armed, who,
upon being asked fur their names, refuted to give them.
and presented their guns at the gamekeeper and his
party, who, as they were unarmed, immediately closed
with them, and a
ment Mr. Horrocks and Mr. Stuollet, together with sums
friends, came up, and, after considerable resistance on
the part of the poachers, succeeded in securing them ;
and having taken their fire-arms. which they found 100 l-
ed, they were committed to Dninharton Jail, where they
remain to take thei► trial for the amanit and offence ot
which they were guilty. The names of the pit's-tiers are,
John Altifilthon and his two sons, J.stin M•Allonn, •
private in the 7th dragoon guards, and Archibald M'.U•
his brother, and another men. Several of the poach-
ers were wounsiesi in the affray, and C. Mee well. Nlr.
llorrock's keeper, was s ly w minded on the head, by
the giddier striking him from behind with the butt end
of his gent and hasi not Mr. Horrocks opportunely
came tip at this moment, and knocked the fellow dows;,
the keeper wont.' most prob.hly have lost his life, as Ise
gas in the art of repealing his blow.
