COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE IJ.
LE"W!S Vi AICOCK.
,Mr. Garrow dated this to be an action brought
for damages for a violent aflault committed'on the
plaintiff by Mr. Alcock, upon the huttings, at the
late election for the borough of Southwark, where
he had acted ns agent for Mr. Tierney , and, at
I he was then in Court, the Jury perceive,
from bulk and strength, that be was a
person oVer whom the plaintiff could have but lit
tle chance of faccefs, if. he had made any lefilt- •
1 auce.
1 The immediate confluence of this attack made
f by the friend of the popular candidate was, that
' the mb called out to have Mr. Lewis th.row(i down
from the huttings among them. .Tile jury ought,
therefore, by the damages they (hould give, todif
> countenance any proceedings at an <j!e<3ion that
went to hold up any man as an objedl of vengeance
' to a mot.
Mr. Carpenter Smith and Mr. Broadley, two
for the county of Surrey, who attend
■ ed at the hulftnus as-the friends of McfT. Thorn»
1 ton and ThellufTon, said, that ihey saw the de
fendant collar the plaintiff, for the purpose of drag
ging hifti away from the huttings, lifting that,
as he was not an eledor, nor a clerkt, he had no
right to be- there. Upon this the plaintiff was ap
pointed a check cleik, that,he might be qualified
to remain where he was, and aflitt Mr. Thornton.
' Mr. Thornton was then called ; he said the plain
tiff did attend th? hufttiTgs at the desire of his af
tifttng cotftmittef tnatl..
Mr. Brfkine made an able speech for the defend
ant ; he thought the fuccefsful candidates ought to
have been contented v. ith gaining their eleSion,
1 and not have forwarded such a contemptible aftiotr
as the present agaijilt the agent of Mr. Tierney.
Th#plaintiff had no right to go to the Huttings,
as not being a voter; by doing so, he becafne one
of the mob ; and the right to Choose Reprefenta
> tivtg in this free country mud be done awav, if un
1 qualified men, who thus intermeddled in elections
1 were not exchlded. He cotild not deny that an as
fault had been committed, according to law ; but
> it . was of such a nature, add ""attended with such
1 circumttances, that he trusted not more than one
(hilling damages would be given.
Aftei two or three words from Lord Kenyon,
the jury retired, and remained deliberating for a
cijofiderable time: at length they gave a vevdift
i for the plaintiff damages ONE SHILLING.
; June 17.
GOObCHILB V. rit-tiTOH.
1 This action was brought by the plaintiff, \vho
■ lives at Walton-upon-Thames, to recover ithe sum
i of- iool.
Mr. Garrow, who opened this Cafe, observed,
he had been informed the defendant was a mer
chant of the city of -London, thbogh he could
hardly believe it. The ctrcumflaUces of the cafe
wete fingiilar, and such as, for the honor e>( thevity
of London, were seldom heard of in Guildhall.
In confluence of some previous acquaintance
the plaintiff one day called upon the defendant and
found him very much out of fpiritv He enquired
the can ft; of it. Mr. Preflon told him he had
t been disappointed. The comrtiiflioners of the ex
cise had refufed topay him for fome'rum, and un.
less he could r:ife 200!. in thecourfedf that clay,
be was afiaid he {hould be ruined. Upon' that,
the pUiatiff took a piece of paper and immediately
give him 2 Jtaft upon his bankers for the fan of
r \ jool- This money was '<&> be returned m the ip::CL
of fix week). The defendant was fu (truck tfith -
that asor generality, that he infixed he mic-htbe i
•vj # ;itted to give Mr. Gondchild fame fccurity for
the re-payflient of it. The plaintiff ioid him he >
wanted no security, and if lie did not thi .k bun s -
man of honour, on wbofevrord lie could fafely re- <
Iv, he would not trust him on his bond. When i
the fix weeks had elapsed, the plaintiff called on
the defendant for his money. Mr. Preston .told him i
it was inconvenieat at that time to pay it ; but !
prosnifed'over and over again te pay it. A< la«, .
however, to the utter astonishment of the plaintiff,
Mr. Preston had the boldness to tell him he had (
neyer lent him any mo'iey ; that he had never been I
hit creditor for a farthingi and that he wouL not
pay him. .
The learned cotmfel ohferved, if he fore this cause i
Was brought, the defendant had any charaftfir that
was of to him, he would footi fee wheiher he
had made a pood bargain in this cafe, by endea
vouring to fhift off the payment cf tins.ffloney.
The draft was paid by the plaintiff's bankers. ■
He fair*, he (hould lay such a body of evidence be- i
fdre the juty, that if it were a fjueftion, whether (
Mr. Preston had dole that draft which he had re- !
eefved from the plaintiff, and were to be fubje&ed i
to a capital ptlviiflnnent for the Sealing of it, he <
coulc! have no possible defence. He should prove <
thnt draft was paid to the defendant by the piain- j
tiff's bankers On the day on which it was dated —- t
He.(hould (hew by what bank note they had paid J
it. He Ihould (hew that that bank note, on the
fame day, was carried to Mr. Prefto'i's baiiker ; (
and he should tfiat" it came into his bank- |
er's hands through his (Mr. Prettoir's) hands that
day. If necessary, he colild identify that bank
note still farther. j
This was as gross an inltance of ingratitude as (
ever appeared in a Court of Justice. There Was j
also a bill in Chancery on this bufisefs, but the j
defendant fvvore through it.
One of ;he clerks of Messrs. Langfton and Co.
(aid Mr. Goodchild kept money at their house ; 1
and that on the 30th of O&oSer, 1794, they paid :
the plaintiff's draft with the bank note 7°4> '
dated O&ober 20th, 1794. The draft was here
read, and was in tbefe words: " London, Odto- ;
b?r 30th, 1794, pay Mr. Thomas-Preiton or bear. 1
er two nundied poilnds." « I
One of the clerks of Messrs. Prefcot and Co. j
find Mr. Preston kept money at their house ; that (
in the afternoon of O&ober 30, J 794, they re» ]
ceived through the hands of the defendant, the 1
bank-note Na. 704. The learned edunfel was pro- 1
ceeding Aill farther in his proof, when the noble |
and learned judge aiked what answer was to be •
given to this cafe ? 1
Mr. Mingay, counsel for the defendant, said he <
had no witness.
Lord Kenyon said, there Was then an end of it,' 1
To be fute such a cafe was never brought into a •
court of juflice Verdict for plaintiff, including
1 two years interest, 2161. ,

EDWARD GIBBON, ES<^
THIS great hidorian, descended from an anci- ,
ent family in the wilds of Kent, was born at Put- J
ney in Surry, on the Bth of May, 1737. His in
fancy was marked by great coiporeal weakness and j
infirmity ; but an attachment to arithmetick, at a
very early period, which rendered him capable cf
multiplying and dividing two ferns of fevtral figures '
by memory alone, seems to have,denoted a vigorous '
mind. His education was partly received at home,
partly at Bath, and other places, where he resided
for the reftoraiion of his health, and partly at Weft,
mii>fter. In April 175 2, he went to Oxford,
where he remained but a Ihort time, in consequence I
of his having embraced the Roman CathtJic reli- (
gion. He was now sent to Lausanne, in Switaer- ]
land , where, under the t'uition of Mr. Pavllliard, a
Calvinift minister, he was not only made a*good
claCical scholar, but teftored to the Protestant faith.
To this bani(hment, Mr. Gibbaa acknowledges
that he owed whatever has been the fruits of his
education. He returned to his falher, who was
now retired to his feat at Buriton, Hants, in 1758 ;
and was received with every mark of parental af
fection. After tefiding at home about five years,
during which time he became a captain "of the
Hampshire militia, his father heing major, he a
gain vifcted the continent, and made Hie tour of
France and Italy. It was while he fat contem
plating amidst the ruins of the capital of Rome, on
the evening of the 15th of Oitober, that
that the idea of writing the Decline and Fall of
that city, firft started to his tnind. More mature
deliberation extended it to the Fall of the Roman 1
Empire, which he has so nobly completed in his fix '
volumes, 4he three last of which Were publifted on '
1 the 5 tft aOniverfaFy of his birth-day, May, 1783.
, Tlie greater part of this wojk was completed dur- !
ing a retirement of some.years in Switzerland, after
f the abolition of*lhe Board of Tt*de, of wliich'M;.
Gibbon, then in Parliament had been appointed

PARIS, June 20.
Yeftetdav between the hoars of one and two, a
man was arretted in the PaWe,of Equality, of the
name of Jourden, who.had diftingt:i!hed himfelfas
• one of the most zealous of the terrorists. He wa*
formerly drum major to the Revolutionary afTy, and
is said to be 1 elated tw the celebrated Jourdan
■ Coupe-Tete. The people were highly pleafcd at the
event. But we ate neverthtlefs allured, that the
police have released him provisionally, on condition
that he shall not,make his appearance again at the
Palais d'Egalile,
The ivport of Peace had raised the mandats, the
day "before yfietday, to -9 1-2 per cent, bi* they
have since fallen to their ordinary rate, that is eight
per cent.
If lettefc from Agde may be credited, 4 terror
ids who had made themselves notorious in that
' county, have assassinated the Spanish Cotiful, on
his return from his c'ountry house. The aJlaffin*
have fled.
General Hoebe has inlotmed the Dire<ftory,;tliat
, within a month, the department of L'Oiue will be V
as tranquil as any of those departments which have
; already ftibniitted.
It is with pleasure wehave seen Cambaceres again
ascend the tribune within lhefe few days. He
• was grossly calumniated by a herd of ambitious in
triguers, after the 13th Veudemaire, who vvirtjed
■ to exclude him from the I)iredtory> whither he was
called by the public; voice. The interval which hag
parted (ince that period, has not, however been loft
to the public: it has beeYi devoted to the prepara

" by the editor hereof, that he enters upon the rect
> tal of the following melancholy event. —A fewdayt
1 -ago an unhappy difputetook place al Bath, between
a Captain Randolph and another gentleman, whole
name we have not heard ; that a challenge was lent
1 by th<; latter to the formpr, of which a Captaia
1 Thomas was the beare» j that Captain refilled
the challenge, and threw the note on the ground,
fignifying at the fame time, that he did not think
1 his opponent upon an equality with him. The'be
haviour of Captain R. irritated Captaia Thomss,
who also dared him to combat, which was refuted
by the former on the fame score. A day or two
afterwards, Captain Thomas was boasting in com
' pany that he had frightened some of the Caritincri
' tals—This behaviour drew down the vengeance of
M?.jor Blackburn,'who very uiifoitunately happen
ed to be present i his refcntment knew no bounds.*—
He assailed Captain Thoma«, and (Oh! that we
" could break off here ( but, alas ! thefequel, mourn*
ful as it is, mud be difclefcrd) with a dirk, put a
period to h'sexillencel The unhappy Major Black
