DOZ, DOH ISE Of HILL IL clime's. This was an ejectment brought by an uncle to recover certain property from the bands of his niece. The lady defended for, Mary Matilda Creswicke, being • minor, her father, Humphey Creawieke. stood as defendant upon the record. The case, which was one of some herdship, raa thus : —Mr. Benjamin Hall, of Baldwin-street. Bristol, died &boat the middle of the year 1809 ; and passing by his son, the plaintiff in the present cause, left his property to his married daughter, Mrs. Mary Matilda Creswicke ; at her death to her children, sees or daughters. At the time when the testator made his will, Mary Matilda Creswicke, had a daughter, the present do facto de fendant; and • son who was levier; at that time being since dead, that daughter, the present Mary Matilda'Creswicke, be came entitled to the property. Mr. Gaselee, who led the case of the plaintilf.—John Bart lett Hill proposed to prove the defendant, Mary Matilda Cres wicke, an illegitimate child ; she having been born in the horse of her grandfather before her mother's marriage with her re puted father, Humpbry Creswicke, and while her mother did, In fact, still pass and go by the name of Mary Matilda Hill. The certificate of marriage was then put in between Hamphry Creswioke and Mary Matilda Hill. It was dated July, 15110. Mr. Thomas Strickland, attorney at law, who made the will of old Benjamin Hill, and who bad been acquainted with bits for many years previous to his death, swore that the present Mary Matilda Creewicke was born many months before the marriage of her mother, and while her another atoll passed hy her maiden name of Mary Matilda Hill. The fact at the time was generally notorious in the neighbourhood. Cross examined'—The witness admitted that Benjamin Hill, the testator, had always treated the present defendant as his grand-daughter. Mr. Sergeant Pell. for the defend , dwelt upon the engra- Oleos nature of the action, and contended that Mr. Strinkland'a evidence was too general to sostein a verdict. There was a farther point for the consideration of the jury ; a marriage be tween Humphrey Creswicke and Mary Matilda Hill might have taken place secretly, prior to the public manner of 1506. If Benjamin Hill bad not been satisfied with the conduct of his daughter, he would not have behaved so favoufably to her and and her children. Mr. Justice Burrougb said that tbn Jury would not be war ranted in presuming • pier marriage. The question was, whi ther the defendant was a legitimate or an illegitimate child ; and that question must he decided upon the evidence if Mr. Strickland. The Jury retired for about half an boor, mad at the expiration of that time found a verdict for the plaintiff. PIPPIN AND HUSBAND IA ELLIOTT. This was an action for negligence by the defendant, whereby dangerous injury accrued to the plaintiff. Mr. Elliott. a butcher, residing in Bristol, puts a screen over the the front of his shop, to protect his meat from the beat of the son. On the Ist of of October last it happened that the screen was left out after dusk ; and Mrs. Pippin, a milk-woman, striking herself against the iroa of it, was knocked down by the blow ana very seriously hurt. H appeared from the evidence on the part of the plaintiff, that the accident happened about six o'clock in the evening.— Mrs. Pippin was coming along with a pail of grains upon her head. When she struck herself against the fell with her head upon the curb-stone ; she was takes op in sensible, and carried into the defendant's shop. After some time the plaintiff was takes home in • chair. She was evi dently much hurt. Four doctors attended her, bat she re covered notwithstanding. She remained ill and incapable of work fur nearly five menthe. Mr. Sergeant Pell, for the defence, contended in the first place, that admitting negligence to have occurred on the part of the defendant, still, if there had been a want of reasonable earl by the plaintiff, there could be no recovery in the present action. The declaration of the plaintiff, as soon as she was Weight to herself, and while she was still sitting is the shop of the phis shop of the defendant, clearly proved what, at that time was her own view of the case ; she said to Mr. Elliott, " the fault was my own ; if I had let go my pail the thing would not have happeoed." Mr. Adam, in reply, insisted that there had been no culpable carelessness on the part of his client. Mr. Justice Burrough said, that the fact of this screen having been left out after dark, would of itself have been sufficient to support an indictment ; but an action for damages must stand opoo different ground. Now the jury would dismixe from their minas altogether the argument as to the plaintiff 's having • pail upon her head ; she was entitled to carry the pail opus her bead, and to walk upon the footpath with it, and to walk unob structed as far as any reasonable height with it. Artisans of every description were in the habit of going along the streets, towards the evening particularly, with their goods upon their heads, and the streets most be kept clear that they might so peas along in safety. If the jury were satisfied that the plaintiff had sustained injury, they would understand that she had sustained it in the ordinary and iawful exercise of her occupation, and they would be bound to give her each tempe rate damages as might recompense the personal buffering to which she had been subjected. The jury, afier retiring for a few minutes, found a verdict for the platuutf—Damages $Ol. RAE V ACRAWAN AND OTHERS. TUESDAY. AUGUST 20.—This was an action for a nuisance. Mr. Adam led on the part ;f the plaiotill, and Mr. Ser o rrant Pell appeared for the defendants. The plaiutiff is a timber-merchant carrying on business in Bristol ; the defendants are great anchor-smiths, having conti guous premises in the wine city ; and the complatot was, that Messrs. At roman. had of late much estended their manufactur ing operations, electing new furnaces, forges, and engines, whereby so much smoke and foot was driven into the deal yard of Mr. Hankie, that his goods were injured, and his repository rendered untenable. It appeared from the evidence in support of the ease, that the incouvenience sustained by Mr. Rankin rr as considerable. N car live and thirty dues ran from the manufactory of die durendants, which covered the timbers of the plaintif f with grit and soot to such a degree as diminished their tradeable value. Mr. Se r aaa I Pell relied, for Messrs. Acraumus, the deka dant', upon showing that the priority of occupation was Mittens: and that the plaintiff(Mr. Rankin) heti talen Its premises sub ject to a very matenal proportion of the iocouveuieuce be now complained of. Mr. Justice Barroagh, when the cause had occupied some time, 'Ne i :eater' the advaotage to bolo parties, of a reiCrence.— It was well kuowo that these chimneys could be made to CUY• clinic their own awoke.

IL The Lord Chief Justice having this day opened the commissios and gone to church, presided gm at Nisi Prins, and anti-wants tried she prisoners. Jahn Pastan. a decent looking men, sheet 51 years of age, stood indicted for stewing a grey mare, the property of Juhn Wisitesmith. of Teilbert, in the parish of Shop, on the 21st day of May last, which he sold fur SI. The et idenee being clear and decisive, the prisoner was fared guilty death. John kinds. a young man about ft years of age. stood indicted with feloniously and maliciously slaying, coning and maiming ten sheep, otherwise ewes. otherwise ten lamb., the property of Mrs. Mary Close. widow, ow the 9th of May last, at a place called Winton Gill, or Hill. Mr. Courtney comfits-led the prosecution. Joseph Close, son of widow Close. deposed as to t h e tar t. John Hardcastle cortoburated the former witness es to the stale in which the sheep were found, with their thrusts cut. am on the ev • gof the 9th of May last. The ',rimester, in his defence, told an susenstsairaised plain story 'shout the Closes contionally loonding his mass Sir's sheep, and assaulting him, which pot burrito peril of lilt life, and witness's master, satisfied wills Ike malice they l ore hint, did all he could to protect him (the pri soner) as his set vent. Mr. Alderson submitted the point of law, whether me. lice being proved on the part of the prisoner towards the sheep from the act of ensuing their throat's, or towards the two brothers, would rmutint so malice towards the wi dow Close, whose property the sheep were, with *horn the prisoner never had any communization so as to inter metier towards her ; and if so, whether this email amount to maliciously cutting and maiming within the meaning of the Act or Parliament. The Lord Oiler Justice 114111, he should reserve the point for the consideration of the Judges. He remarked upon the inconsistency of the Closes, and left it to J.iry to find their verdict of guilty or nut guilty. If they !Mind she prisoner ',silty. they would say whether the killing and maiming was with malice towards the owner of the sheep, or towards the sons of the widow Close. The Jnry found the prisoner godly fume malice, not towards the sheep, or widow Close. the owner. but from malice towards her sons, Joseph and William Clime.— Sentence of death respites' fur the opinion of tire twelve Judges.
