GATHERCOLE'S LIBEL ON SCORTON NUNNERY AGAIN ! TILE ( JUEEN V . I 2 VKEBSLBT . ^ ilr . Bliss opened the pleading 3 . This was an information against the defendant for libel , to which he pleaded Not Guilty . Mr . Cressweix stated the case to the Jury . He said this wa 3 an information at the lL-ikuce uf the nuns resident in Scorton Nunnery , iu ihe cuiinty oi York , filed by leave of the Court of Queen ' a Bench , against Thomas Inkersley , for printing one of the most atrocious libels that can possibly be oonceived , and it was wholly impossibls fur those ladies to have allowed such a libel to pa&a unnoticed and unpunished . Indeed , he should have sa < ii if ; -. ay females
sat down contented to bear this imputation c ^ st on them , it would be stroug evidence that they deserved it . Those ladies belonged to an order c&lied the order of St . Catherine ; they proi ^ cs , as tlia vtry title of the information will indicate to you , the Roman Catholic reii ^ 'On . The establishment formerly existed in Franco , then an asylum was afforded them by Sir Thomas Haggerswue , of Ha ^ gerstone Castle , in Nonhumberlaud ; and latterly , they have been established at Scorton , in this county , where they procure themselves an honourable maintenance by the education of youn ^ j ladies . The defendant was not the author , but bein ^ a printer and publisher he lent himself to the author of these
scandalous and abominable libels . The libels imputed to these ladies waut of chastity , and the murder of their illegitimate offspring . It might be very well to inveigh against persona profe&sing different creed 3 ; they might differ iu opinion as to ; he benefis or injury doue to society by establishments of this kindj and they might ar > fue sgainsL ihem if they pleased , but they had no ri ^ ht 10 allow oijjotry or intolerance , or still bastr motives , to indue * them to impute crimes 10 individuals which had no existence at ail except in the imagination of the person who published the charge . When the abominable publication was issued , the ladies at Scorton Nunnery had three cou-ses open to them to
pursue—each of them might have maintained individually an action against the printer and publi .-her , or author if they could have fouad him , tor damages , and then those ladies who profess poverty amongst other things would have been charged with makiug a market of their characters . They had another course , by preferring an indictment before a Grand Jury , and theu as the party put on his trial on an indictment for libel cannot enter into the question of its truth or falsehood , it would have been said by those who made the unfounded charge , that the ladies of Scorton Nunnery Bhrunk from an investigation into the truth of the statement . This .
therefore , was not the sort of remedy they would oe likely to seek . A third course was to apply to the Court of Queen ' s Bench for a criminal iniormahod , and that course they adopted . According to the practice of that Court , when a party came before ic cnargmg another with libel , stating that certain offences have been imputod to him , and calling upon me Judges to aiford a remedy , Dy allowing a enigma ! information to be hieu , the first step is to cadi upon mem to establish , by affidavit , the entire innocence of the party . Tnis had been done , and therefore ihe oniy question for tnem would be , whether the paragraphs oomplained of in the Churchman Were libellous ur not .
Mr . Alexakdeu addressed th © Jury for the defendant , but thry luumi nim Guilty . He will be brought up a * the Queca ' b Bench loxeciYe the judgment oi the Court .
FAWCfcTT AUD AHOTBEH V . CALVfiBT . Mr . Temple was for the plaintiffs , Mr . Favrcett and Mrs . Mary Robinson , the executor , and executrix of the lat-e Martita Robinson ; Mr . Wostley vras for the defendant , who resides at Ketilewell . The action was brought to recover £ 34 , the Dalance of a running account with Mrs . Martha Robinson , who , during her life-time , occupied a corn-mill , at Richmond . An acknowledgment of the debt vras proveu by Mr . Samuel Robinson , the testator ' s son , who was cross-examined by Mr . Wortley . The learned counsel afterwards contended that the balance was not owing to the testator , bat to the person who succeeded her in the corn business . Verdict for the plaintiffs , damages £ 32 .
HODGSON V . DALE . Mr . Cresswkll and Mr . Hildyaed for the plain * tiff ; Mr . Alexander and Mr . Co&elb for the defendant . The action was brought to recover compensation in damages for an assault committed by the defendant , Mr . John Dale , of Scarbro ' , on Mrs . Hodgson , his sister . The assault took place on the 24 th of March , at which time the three daughters of Mrs . Dale had assembled in the house to divide her linen and plate amongst them . The defendant came in , and , observing what they were doing , he said , he would show them who was master tcere ; " he then
took hold of Mrs . Hodgson by the wrist , pulled her off the chair , and threatened first to turn her down stairs , and next to throw her out of the window , if she did not leave the house . Mrs . Hodgson , however remained . After the oruaxrel , some communication took place between Mr . Hodgson and the defendant , hut the latter refused to nuke anv apo-I ° g 7 i or g * Te anv s 010 1 ° * charitable institution in reparation of the wrong he had committed . In oonseouence of this , the present action was brought . Mary Wilkinson , Mrs . Westler , Bister to the plaintiff and defendant , proved the assault , and Timothy Hardcastle , & banker , spoke to an offer having been made to settle the matter , on Mr . Dale giving an apology , and £ 5 to a charitable institution , which had been refused .

I had two lod gers that night , Christopher Spence and Wm . Oliver . There was also a brother-in-law of mine . Early in the morning of the 6 th of March , I was awoke by three men entering my bed room . A tall man , rather stout , entered first ; he had a knife in one hand and a candle in the other . The man that first entered came to my bedside , and he asked for my pocket and money . 1 told him it was there : it was lviiur bv
the bedside . He took the pocket in hiahand and said he wanted the bar key . I told him it was in my pocket . The other men were apparently plundering the room . When they took ray pocket they left ay room . One of them took the candle away that I had gone to bed with ; there was silver and copper in my pocket ; I don ' t know the amount . Geo .

They all came up to the bedBide ; the other two men had each a pistol , and they said if I made any noise they would blow my brains out . I laid my head down , and the tall man began to plunder ; he took a sovereign and some silver out of my
breeches pocket . The other two stood over me with their pistols . He lighted my candle , and he and another went out of the room ; the third stood with his pistol presented towards me . John Sanderson is the mau who stood over me . The other two men at the bar were those that left the room . After they had all gone I saw them no more . Cross-examined—I never said at Ripon that I couldn ' t speak to two of them ; I said I thought I wouldn ' t swear to them ; I have no doubt about tho men , and I think it my duty to my neighbours to swear to them .
Mr . Richard Kettlewell deposed—My residence is at Upper Canada , but I am at present staying at my sister-iu-law ' s . 1 slept in a lower room on the oveniug of the 5 th of March . Between two and : hree o ' clock next morning I was awoke by three men coming into my room . John Sanderson was one ; he bad a candle iu his hand .

He took a crown , half-crown , and sixpence out of my waistcoat pocket . In toe pocket book were four £ 5 notes of the Yorkshire District Bank , and a promissory note for £ 400 . 1 also lost a pencii-case , a knife , a Mackintosh coat , and a Mohair greatcoat . I have seen the coat si nee then . John Pennington deposei—I am an innkeeper at Skipton-on-Swale , a mile and a quarter from Busby
Stoop . On the evening of Wedmsday , the 4 th of March , about a quarter-pact seven o ' clock , the prisoner came to my honse and asked lor supper . They had supper aud sat opposite to them ail night . John Humphreys—I am an innkeeper at Maunby . Three men came to my house on the 8 th of March ; the three prisoners are the men ; they came to my house about one o ' clock in the afternoon . They ware about two hours in my house , which is about five miles from Mrs . Kettlewell ' s . They iiad no bundles with them . They told me they had been at Dallow Gill at a dance ; George Atkinson told me so . Dallow Gill is about eleven or twelve ^ caUes . from , my house , towards tho moors .
Thomas Ellington ColiinBon deposed—I am a police officer at Boroughbridge . In consequence of what I heard I went with hit . Winn , from Ripon , on the 33 rd of March , to London . We bad a search warrant , and we apprehended the prisoners in a house in Holland-street , Westminster . There was a room above and another below . In the lower room they were taking tea , and Mr . Winn called them by name . The ) asked us to let them finish their tea , which we did . We took them and searched the house . They were other two men went with us to assist . We found a great coat in the lower room , and a pencilcaso in the room above . Took a Guernsey frock off the back of George Atkinson on the night of the apprehension at Queen-square Police-office ; another 1 found in the house up stairs . I found a pistol without a barrel up stairs , and a pistol down stairs . I found the gunpowder , the balls , and a bullet mould , now produced .
Christopher Speuoe identified the Macintosh coat the Moliair coa-, and the knife . The Guernsey frock I saw the man had on the night of the robbery was striped down ihe arm ; the one now produced is stri p ed round the arm . ' Mr . Newton made a long address to the Jury , and he contended that the burglary had not been proved , and the identity of the other prisoners had not been made out . To shew the innocence of the prisoners , he should prove that they were in Lundou on the morning of the 7 th of March , ro as to render it impossible to be at the scene of the robbery on the morning before . He then called
Thomas Peters , who deposed—I am a Serjeant in the Grenadier Guards . I have seen the prisoners before . I am quartered at the Wellington Barracks , in London , I have seen the prisoners there ; I saw them there in March , but I caunot say ou what day of the week or what week it was . There were some foot races at the barracks , but I cannot say on what day they were held . The Learned Judge having summed up with considerable minuteness , the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all ihe prisoners . They were sentenced to be transported for life . The Court rose about half-past six o ' clock .
THURSDAY , July 16 . HOUSEBBEAKINO . George Atkinson , 35 , Thomas Atkinson 33 J and John Sanderson , 23 , who were convioted , and sentenced , yesterday , to be transported for life , were indicted for the capital offence , in having broken and entered , on the 4 th of March , the house of W . Stubbs , and robbed and violently ill-treated him . George Sanderson , 24 , was charged with having received some of the property , well knowing it to have been stolen Mr . Blanchakd and Mr . R . Temple conducted the prosecution ; the prisoners were defended by Mr . Newton .
The facts were nearly similar to those in the preceding case . The prosecutor is a toll-bar keeper , at Clent , which is betweed Kuaresbro' and Pateley Bridge . About three o ' clock in the morning in question , three men entered his house , knocked him down , by which they dislocated his ahoulder , and went to tha bed in which his wife was , and , when she called out murder , presented a pistol to her , snapped it , and Baid , " Look yon here , if you speak another word , I'll blow your brains out . " The men wore masks , and were scarcely discernable . After rifting the drawers of all the valuable property in the house , they went away . The manner in which the charge was attempted to be brought home to the prisoners was , that they robbed Mr . Bradfield ' s house the same morning and then wore mt ^ kn and similar clothes to those worn by the persons who robbed the prosecutor ' s house .
After the case for the prosecution had closed , The Learned Judos , without calling upon Mr . Newton , the prisoner ' s counsel , to make any observation , recommended the jury to acquit them , as the evidence of identity was exceedingly weak—too weak to convict of such a serious oharge . The Jury accordingly retained averdiolof Not Guilty against all the prisoners . George Sanderson was then indicted for having received a watch , the property of Charles Patrick , well knowing it to have been stolen . The same Counsel were engaged in this ease . Guilty—To be transported for fourteen years The prisoner on hearing hu sentence said , " Thank you , my Lord . "

George Hqlroyd , 45 , was indicted for the manslaughter of Thomas Stodart * at Leeds , on the 28 ch of Marco laBt . Richard Gresty , 22 , was also charged with having aided aud abetted the prisoner iu the commission of tho offence . Messrs . Ellis and Picketing conducted the pro-MaryHoward , 46 . who was connected with the
secution ; Mr . Wigham defended the prisoners . From the evidence it appeared that , on Saturday night , the 28 th of March , about nine o ' clock , the two prisoners went into the shop of tho deceased , who carried on the business of a hair-dresser in Vicar-lane , Leeds , to get shaved . They returned again about two o ' clock on the morning of the 29 th , and the deceased was standing at the door . None of the parties were sober . Stodart went out , and proceeded up Vicar-lane . Holroyd informed James Addiman , the apprentice , that he had coma to have a little more taken off his whisker , pointing to the left side of the face , which the apprentice accordingly did ; the prisoners left the shop immediately .
ihe . y went up Btreet in company , and Addiman saw Holroyd and hia master sparring and striking at each other , but they only struck one blow . They then began to seriously quarrel , aud Addiman ran up the street and got between them to prevent them fighting . On going away , he heard the deceased say to Holroyd , " We are both of a size , " and Gresty then . said to Holroyd , " Go at him , George ! " Holroyd then knocked Addiman . off the causeway , ran at his master , knocked him down , and threw himself upon him . He pressed on his left side with both his knees , and struck him on his face . Whilst the deceased was on the ground , be called out
" Murder , " and his wife , who W » B SKMltiilijJ at the door and saw the transaction , called for the police . The deceased was taken into his own shop , and , after lingering till the Friday following , he then expired . Mr . Garliok , surgeon , stated that several ribs of the deceased were broken , and tho injuries received on that morning had occasioned his death . In crossexamination , it appeared that the deceased had fallen but of a gig , which hod broken three ribs on the right side , about a fortnight before , by which he had been under medical treatment , but this , the surgeon stated , had no influence in causing his death .
Mr . Wigham addressed the Jury for the prisoners , urging that Holroyd had only acted in self-deience in an unfortunate quarrel which had arisen , and that Gresty had merely been &n idle looker on . The Learned J ldg e summed up , when the Jury retired , aud , after an absence of an hour and a half , returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty against Holroyd , and Not Guilty against Gresty . Holroyd was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months in York Castle .

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS . ¦ THOBNHILL V . OASTLEB-( Before Chief Justice Tinialand a Special Jury . ) This was an action on a promissory note , for money had and received , and for the detention of certain boofci alleged to belong to the plaintiff Mr . Kellt , with Whom was Mr . Peacock , stated that the plaintiff was a gentleman of fortune possessed of extensive estates in Yorkshire . The defendant , who was , no doubt , well known to the jury , and whose talents and abilities were such as to entitle him to theii consideration , had been for many years land steward andageni to the plaintiff , which situation had been previously filled by his fiither , whom , either on hii death or retirement , his son , the present plaintiff , had succeeded . This action was brought to recover a sum
of between £ 2 , 080 and £ 3 , 000 due from him to the plaintiff ; and also to compel him by the verdict of a jury to deliver up certain books of account connected with the estates of the plaintiff In order to show beyond all doubt that the plaintiff was entitled to what he sought to recover , he would proceed to read some letters which had passed between the parties , from which it would appear upon the defendant ' s own acknowledgment that the balance in question mm clearly due . The Learned Counsel then read some portion of the correspondence , whiehse f&r was couched in friendly terms on both sides , and he observed that he would refrain from introducing any other matter not bearing on the precise question before the jury , a course of proceeding in which he hoped that he should ba followed by the defendant , who appeared in penon to defend the cause .
Mr . Oastler interposed , and observed that he had no wish to waste the time of the Court . If the plaintiff's counsel were sincere in the sentiments he expressed , and was now satisfied to acknowledge on tbe part of his client that he intended only to treat the sum here claimed as a debt , he would give him no further trouble , but submit to a verdict at once , and place himself in Mr . Thornhiirs hands . He had merely resisted the action because he understood that it had been imputed to him that be had fraudulently detained the money ; whereas it now appeared to bo acknowledged that it was a simple matter of debt Tho Loud Chief Justice sbserved , that there wai no imputation whatever npon Mr . Oaatler ' s character here . Mr . Oaatler * ald , that that was all that he had ever wished to be settled .
Mr . Kelly had imputed or acknowledged nothing . He had merely , as far as be had gone , stated fact * , and read some letters which were wreditable to both parties . Here a conference took place between the learned Counsel and the defendant , which resulted in an arrangement to the effect that a vtrdict was taken for the plaintiff for £ 2 , 600 , without prejudice to a claim of the defendant ' s against the plaintiff for £ 500 ; the defendant to deliver up the books to the plaintiff , on receiving a release from him of all claims and demands whatsoever , except as to the amount of the verdict Mr . Kelly , after stating to the Learned Judge tbe terms of the arrangement , said he felt great pleasure at this unpleasant affair being thus satisfactorily settled . Lord Chief Justice Tindal—I am very glad , Mr . Oastler , that this action is brought to such a satisfactory settlement .
Mr . Oastler bowed to his Lordship . Mr . Kelly applied to the Court te certify for a Special Jury . The lord chief Justice relu 8 « 4 to certify . A verdict was then entered for the above sum , and the Court rose .
