The I.OIID Clllll JOIITICIL said, it well for the
Jury to &Tide upon the conflicting testimony which
bad been submitted to them. Five wit had
sworn that the Dafesdast committed the first assault,
while Iwo swore the reverse. To the probability of
leach story the Jury would attend, and give their
verdict accordingly. It certainly did appear to
him, that the Plaintiff had ftrought this quarrel spec
himself, whatever might have bees the original is.

actually walking away when stopped by the Plaintiff,
as was alleged by himself to demand an etplanation
of something that bad goons by. The Jury would
say, whether they were satisfied that the Defendant
had committed the first assault, stud if he had, to
what compensation the Plointiff was entitled for the
serious injury be bad received.
The Jury after a short deliberation, found a tort

This was an information filed against the Defend•
ant, which charged that he was one of the crew of a
smuggling boat called the Flora, sod was on board
of Ow said boat at the time she was laden with con.
trabsed spirits, whereby he became liable to a penalty
of 1001. The facts soder which the information was
filed were these :—Oa the T. 5 of September, 1815,
the Swallow reveilles cutter was on a cruise tsetse's
the French coast and Dover. In this ailoatioo, the
Captain (Dishy) perceived two boats comiog from j
the French thorn, and making for England; Ito le.
mediately ordered out two of his own boats le
pausal, and with his spj-glass observed that
the firat.menlioned boats on seeing his boats ap.
preach, attempted to retorts to the port from 4 brace
they came; finding their retreat cut off, 'loiterer.
they began by throwing somethiag •verboard, which
afterwards droves, to be sinkers of Hollatitis sod
brandy. The boats were finally captured, God
proved to be the Fly and the Flora. The crews
were brought on board the Swallow. They were
eight in panther, and among them wet the Defendost.
As is atria upon such occasions, they were vest too
board a ship of war, there to serve before tie mast,:
and the boats and spirits were sant to the Cottons.,
house, where they were condemned. On the
15'h of September, a Sheriff:a 011iter came aloof'. I
side the Hastings, on board which the Defentiast was,
and produced a writ for bit
Captain being Do shore, the I.:.ratenant in command
diet not know how to act ; but in order that the
opinion of the Captain might be taken, he sent the
Defendant in one of the ship's boats, accompattied
by else Sheriff's cheer, 00 shore. The moment the j
boat touched the bench, however, the Defendant,
jumped oat, ran off, and raped. Ile was not again I
discovered till a late period its the last year, when the
present information was filed oglinst
'lles* facts were clearly proved by *bit °eters both
of the Swallow revenue cotter and the Hastings.
The COMMON SERJLANT made an ineffectual ad.

verdict was found for the Crown.
