W to a these severe' documents were all read and entered, Sir Henry Meredyth stated to the Coma that the evidence bud closed. The evidence being thus closed, Dr. Staples, on the part of the off re, observed upon it, and particularly urn., the law se bleb regulated tie proem ding, and established its propriety and necessity nearly in the following terms We have now, My Lords, gone through the evidence in this eery distre sing Case, and as we conceive have folly borne out by proof, the offence' , charged by the articles against the on , ortunate person accused. Some increased difficulty has been niposed upon us by the peculiar circumstance of the impug naut rot bi:v orpeared. Ile is not before your Lordships either in person or by proctor, and thence has arisen the neces sity of much evidence to identify Pony, Bishop of Cloglier, as the p •rson guilty of rile enormities alleged. That some pet son committed these offences at the time and place slated, is not questioned. It is now my duty to chew yonr Imrdships, by a few observations on the evidence laid before you, that that per • son was Percy, B:shop of Cloghier. ! laving spoken lot sonic time lie concluded thusa— Having now, as we conceive, established the flies charged against the sndivalual charged, and also the jurisdiction of the Court, it only rentains to pray for your Lordships sentence.— '::his is a duty 1 urn aware must Le must painful to the Court ; yet, however distressing the case iday bo, I am confident your Lotel•hips will conscientiously and boldly pronounce that ben , tenet , which the law demands.—You will cut off this pestilential member, and discharge your duty to your country and your Gud. Ills Grace the Lord Primate, after some conference with his brethrao, requested that the Court should be cleared. Sir Henry Menalyth, before he retired, tendered to his Grace a written sentence, for his perusal and approval, referring to and founded upon the evidence in the cause. The sen tence was and is, sentence of deprivation and deposition.— Ills Grace received and took possession of the sentence. liis Grace and Brethren remained for some time in conference. It was then announced that the Court was opened. and that the sen tence of the Advocates and Proctor of office was expected. "Pliny accordingly attended, and thereupon his Grace the lord Primate, in the presence and hearing of his Brethren the Lords Bishops, of his Vicar General, and of other distinguished personages, rose from his seat, and the entire of the auditory then standing, and the Bishop of Clogher being then thrice called, but not appearing, and la's contumacy being accused, according to the law of the Court, his Grace proceeded to read the sentence in open Court. Ile read it in a most impressive and dignified manner, and in a tone of voice that manifested his extreme feelings and delicacy in the discharge of this painful and important duty. Vs'llen finished, lie signed it in open Court, and directed it to be lodgeel in the Itegistracy of his Dioceae, where it now remains a record «these important proceedings, and of their perfect consummation by the absolute deprivation and deposition of Doctor I'crcey Jocelyn from the Bishopric of Cloglier, and his Episcopal °tiler and Atiduotttics. 818110 P OP CLOWIER.

Taunton Said, that lie was instructed to wove the Court for a new rule to anew cause why a criminal information should not be granted against the inhabitants of the county of Becks, for the refusal to repair a bridge situated within the county.-_ The bridge Iny in the direct line of the turnpike road, and bad always be n used by the public. It was built across the river his, in the road from Aston-line, iu Oxfordshire, to Furring don, iu llerksh re. In 177$ it was erected by the trustee► of the road*: part of the expense of its erection b ing defrayed out of their funds, and part by voluntary contributions. In 1779 it was taken down, and the prasent bridge was erected in its place. The allidavits stated that this bridge was in Berk shire; that it had been completely adopted by the public; and that it hail gradually fallen to decay and become even dan gerous to passengers. At the Sprin,f, Sessions in last year ap plication was made to the Magistrates on the subject ; they appointed two gentlemen, named 'Bandy and Mills, to inquire of the state and local situation ui the bridge ; and on their report that the bridge was in a state of dilapidation, and situ ate w;:hiu the county, they moue an order for repairing Gee bridge, buf directed that payment should not be made until the que►tion of' liability should be decided. Some repri.a, thereime, were tune, but nu payment made on account of the expenses. A bill was referred against tit county at the hest Lent Assizes; awl thought h'tr witnesses swore to the local situation and CondiliOn of the mud, the Grand Jury threw tout the bill.

Mr. Sergeant Pell .moved for a new trial in this prosecution. It was au indictment tried at the Bothnia Assizes for lt'2l. 'fhe 'dahlia wss charged with bribery at the St. Iveselection. The learned Sergeant alleged as the ground of his motion, that the defendant had been taken by surprise, and obliged to go on trial unprepared for his defence. The attorney for the prose cution hail given him reason to suppose his trial would not come on, and in consequence of that representation be dirt not pro cure the evidt nee necessary for his defence. It was also urged that the principal witness fur the prostcution, a person named DUOII, hail been convicted of perjury since the trial. Ile Court wire of 00111011 the alhdavit of the defendant required affidavits in answer, and upon that ground they allowed a rule to skew cause. rENs tl. B ADCOTI'. AND OTHERS. The Common Strum:tit moved to net aside the verdict in this care, on the erotind of a misdire ction. It was an action to recover 11141114 g CN fur false imprisonment, tried before Baron Graham, at Vs arwick. The Jury found a verdict fur the plaintiff. with one farthing damages. There were two pleas ; first, the general issue : the second was % jus tification under a late statute, the first of Geo. 1%. which giv,s authority to any constable or owner of property, without the warrant of a magistrate to seize, apprehend, and take before a magistrate any person or persons committing damage to pre mises, garden, fences, plants, crops, and other property. In this case the defendant endeavoured to prove, that the plaintiff, on a Saturday night, left a public house with ■ loaded gun. which he fired into the window of a public house opposite.— he wife of the shop-keeper and several customers were in the shop at the time, and they narrowly escaped personal injury.— Twenty-four panes of glass were broken. On the Monday fol• lowing the plaintiff was taken before a magistrate, who felt some reluctance in committing him under Lord Ellenborough's Act, hot recommended the parties to proceed on the Ist of Geo. IV. offering at the time to commit him for maliciously breaking windows. They did not adopt the magistrate's sug gestion, and the plaintiff was discharged. lie then brought his action, and the defeedant justified upon the Act of Parlia ment. The plaintiff attempted to prove an alibi. lle alleged that lie was in the public house at the time the gun was fired ; but the defendant had evidence to show lie was leasing the house at the time the damage was done. Notwithstanding this fact, the Jury found a verdict tor the plaintiff, The mitdirses tint, on the part of the Judge was, omitting to state to the Jury. that the deftinlanta were justified under the Act of Parliament, independent of the general issue. The Lord CliiefJu►tice.—The question at the trial seems to have been, whether the plaintiff was the man who fired the gun. Comitiou Sergeant—Yes. The Lord ChiefJustice—Perhaps a constable is not justified in arresting a man, unless there is at least a strong suspicion that a felony has been committed. Judge Bayley—l think you bad not proof the plaintiff was the man who did the act. The Common Sergeant then said they bad proof of that fact. A (purel between the shopkeepei and the pleintiff had taken place previous to the injurious act. The Court granted a rule to show cause. THE KING V. FIELDER AND ANOTIIV.R. It!r. Adolphus said, he was ready to submit his objections in layout of the defendants, and loose either to enter a verdict for the defendants, or to obtain a new trial. It was an indictment against the two defendants for keeping a Laming-house, in Rennet street, St. James's. Mr. Adolphus at the trial objected, that the house was nut io the pari►h of St. James, and also find no evidence proved the defendant was the keeper of the house at the lime one of the witnesses fur the prosecution swore lie saw hint acting as such. —1 he learned counsel was asked before he made Isis motion, whether the defendants were it, Court ! lle answered no. Judge Bayley—l donet know whether you can mese if they are ;dismal. Tha Court may wish to know whether judgment has passed on a former conviction. There is a rule in criminal cases which precludes connsil from moving fur a new unless the defendants are in Court.
