COMMIT TED FOR PERJ URY-A Scene IN Court
Yesterday, in the Criminal Court, Judge
Wylle; Jo- hua Anderson, q character well
known about the wharves in Georgetow Il .
was called as a witne for the defence in the
case of Lunosford and Brown, on trial for the
larceny OF clothing from the canal boat of NJ
Smith He gave his testimony i'm an abrupt
and loafsh manner, as though he had no re.
spect for himself or sympathy for anyone else;
and did not hesitate TO state that he had been
convicted several times OF grave offences, such
as rape, &c. His testimony was directed TO
break down the evidence of proceeding wit
ne by vilifying his character, saying that she
was drunk when the larceny was committed:
ana she would let him do with her as he
pleased, DC His testimony was so Disgusting
and improbable that the Judge ordered him 10
stop, and placed him in the custody OF the
Marshal, comm Itting him to Jail 10 answer the
charge OF perjury.
