IRELAND. DR FA PFUL Arcrnrwy.--Extract of a letter from Dublin, dated Sa tor daY, 'ad of A pri!, Ift t :—" This day the sweep you have heard of, who had ben tried and convicted of the most unheard-of cruelty to a poor apprentice bay, undo resent part of his sentence, by being whipped from Newgate to the Itoy-1 Exchange. The public curiosty to see this monster in human shape was excited to that degree, that every window, the tops of the leiuscs, and other Maces, were crowded to excess; never en any occasion have we witnessed such an assemblage of people in the streets of Dub!id. At the Royal Exchange a most dreadful accident happened, that sreod great alarm through the metropolis:—Several hundred persons mounted the steps in front of the Royal Exchaage, and the pressure became so great, that the heavy iron ballustrade in front gave way, and it, and all the unfortunate persons who were leaning on it, fell to the ground, killing and breaking the limbs of such as were un derneuth. 1 have just seen the dead bodies of seven of them—four countrymen, two boys, and a grenadier, six feet four inches high. Mr. Cooney, a respectable publican. had both his legs broke; James Camp bell, a policeman, had both his legs and one aria broke ; and I under stand there are upwards of fifty mortally wounded. There is nut a quarter of the town but has some person to lament. The consternation was so great, that in every quarter you met with some person with fear painted in their coma mince, in search of their father, mother, husband, wife, brother, sister, or other relative. I would have more particulars, only I wish to avail myself of this night's post, as you will have this be fore any ut the Dublin papers will reach London." LA IV INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, THURSDAY, Arita 27. Thomas Burrows, a purser in the navy, convicted of making and forging fraudulent accounts respecting slops, was sentenced to two years imprisonment, and to stand in the pillory. Thomas Twyneham, convicted of furnishing unwholesome bread to the French prisoners, contrary to contract, was ordered to be imprisoned six months in Exeter gaol. Richard Cock was sentenced to two months further imprison ments,for lighting fires on the Cornish coast, as a guide to smugglers. Wn►. Clark, au excise officer, convicted at the last Stafford As sizes for entering in his accounts, that there was no malt operation going on at a certain place, whereas there was one, and who had al ready been confined since February, was sentenced to ttn months further imprisonment. Sophia Underhill was brought up to receive the judgment of the Court, upon au indictment which charged her with exposing and publicly going in the streets of Paddington, with her infant son, John Underhill, he then being in the smallpox, and infectious, to the great danger and common nuisance of all his Majesty's subjects. Mr. Owen, for defendant, submitted that this was no offence at common law, but Lord Ellenborough . bad no doubt that it was. Affidavits were then put in, on the part of the prosecution, that the defendant's child had infected eleven persons, one of whom, a young woman of J 9 years of age, and seven children, had died of the dis ease, and another had lost an eye—that there was a children's school in the court—and that the defendant persisted in taking her child abroad, notwithstanding the neighbours warned her that it had a very virulent small-pox, which the defendant denied, and said that it had been inoculated, and that the eruption was only a tooth-rash. Mr. Pitrk, for the prosecution, stated, that a vindictive judgment was not- required against the prisoner, but the great object of the prosecutor was, that the law might he promulgated. Mr. Justice Le Blanc, after sonic appropriate comments, sen tenced her to three ►nouths imprisonment in the Marsha6ea. SATURDAY. TILLY V. BROWNE. This was an action of trespass, brought by plaintiff to recover a compensation in damages from the defendant, for having illegally distrained for rent and taken away certain furniture, the property of the plaintiff: The plaintiff, it appeared, occupied a house the property of the defendant, No. 7, Exeter-street, Strand, at a rent of 601. per annum, and on a gnarteii rent becoming due, a demand was made of it by the defendant, and a tender of 131. deducting 11. 7v. for property tax was made to him. This, however, the defendant refused to take, unless a further demand of 31. was paid for some adjoining premises which plaintiff occupied, this the plaintiff refused to do, bacause, as be contended, it was not due the defendant re fused to take any unless be had the whole, an& next day sent a bro ker who took possebsiou ; on explanation, however, the broker took REGISTER. APRIL 30. the 151. and gave a receipt for it, but nt the same time demanded payment of his expences, this the plaintiff refused to pay, saying the seizure was illegal and he would pay no expenses; on this the bro ker took a bed and sold it to pay expences, and it was for this tres pass the action was brought. On the part of the defendant the ten der was denied altogether. The broker stated that he had repeat edly asked the plaintiff whether he had made any, who refused to answer him, although he had told him if he had the defendant should pay the expenses. Lord Ellenborongh left it for the Jury to decide whether it was probable, if the plaintiff had made any tender, he would not have swell as much to the broker. If they should now be of opinion the plaintiff had made a tender, then the defendant was a tress passer, and the defendant must have a verdict ; if they should be of a contrary opinion, lie was uo trespasser, and they would find for the defendant. The Jury without hesitation found for the de. fondant. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER. THE KING V. WM. SAWYER. The Twelve Judges assembled yesterday in the Exchegner Cham ber to hear arguments in support of and against the objections taken to the conviction of the prisoner in this case, who, it will be recol lected. was tiled and found guilty under a special commission at the last Old Bailey Sessions, of the murder of Harriet Gaskell, at L isbon. Mr. Curwood addressed their Lordship'a in support of the objec tions, which were three-foll. Filet, as to a British Court having no jurisdiction over offences committed in foreign countries in which British laws had no contronl. Secondly, assigning the jurisdiction that the indictment had not specified the parties to be British sub jects : and lastly, that it did not appear that the crime had been committed against the statue upon which the indictment was framed, and which should have appeared on the face of the indictment. Mr. Curwood cited varionk learned authorities in support of his premises. He was answered by Mr. Abbot for the prosecution, but judgment was deferred. Arguments were also heard in the case of the King v, Cox, eon vietvd of forging a promissory note ; but judgment was also de. (erred. POLICE. THE NATION. BOW-STREET. On Tnesday, P. Robert AI ilward, huntsman to Col. Thornton, ob tained at this office a warrant against Col. Thornton, Sir Henay Sheridan, Bart. and John Titeux de Terrenar, charging them with a violent assault. It appeared that Colonel Thornton went to France about four months since, leaving R. Milward 011 his estate near Bath, as huntsman. The Colonel returned to England about a month since, and has been living at Pagliano's Hotel, during that time. Wednesday se'niglit Robert Milward arrived in London, and since that time he had been repeatedly with the Colonel for the poyment of his wages, &c. amounting to 371. the Colonel disputed the amount, and said he should refer it to a Mr. Brace; however, at the interview which he had with the Colonel on Monday evening, he told him he had no money to pay for his food or necessary ex pences, and the Colonel refusing to give him any, and the huntsman refusing to leave the room except he had some, force was used to get him out, and it being held by the Magistrate, that the hunts man was a trespasser, atter being ordered out, the warrant was dis charged. UNION HALL. CHARGE OF Mun»En.—Maty Ryan, who was examined on a former day, charged with attempting to murder her female bastard child, of which she delivered herself, by throwing it down the privy, was brought before Mr. Serjeant Sellon for final examination. It appeared on the prisoner's first examination, that the cries of the infant whilst lying on tl►e soil, had drawn the attention of the prisoner's master, by whom it was rescued from its perilous situa- tion ; the prisoner was at that time remanded for another examina 'tion, when it shoidd have been ascertained whether the child would survive. The infant is since dead ; but it appeared -that it lived se• veral days after the prisoner's attempt to destroy it; and from the statement of the surgeon, it appeared its death was occasioned by natural causes. The facts of the prisoner's pregnancy, and her en deavours to conceal it, were proved, to the satisfaction of the magis• trate. In her defence, she said her delivery was premature and unexpected, and that she did not know she was in labour when she went to the privy, and the circumstance took place. She was fully committed tir trial, for concealing the birth of the child, with in. tent to destroy it. Apt am+ r a Irst en[! in lb woe The with In Ir'
