It iith extreme pam the General has freard of much liceti#!ous conversation in this -cam p, subversive of every principle of subordi- V" and discipl ne., of patriotism and honour, and tend nig to Those high and solemn »Hf<ca«ionB, by which every military man is bound to itte service of his country. 44 He is fully apprized of the arts which have ifm emplo)ed In seduce the incautious and in- Boceo from their duty, to obtain their signatures lo a bond of infamy, ami *to involve them in; utter -disgrace and ruin. He knows that his life- has' been menaced hy a traitor, but he is- persuaded a majority of the troops he e.oniuiands, A arerleans by birth and in principle, will sooner gaffer martyrdom* (hanatlacti an eternal stigma to their names and families, or raise their hands srsinst the country that gave them birfh. He knows also that-this camp,like all o'hers of equal ex rent, comprehends everv .species of human de- pravity, and tha, on strict scrutiny will exhibit the various traits of character, from the patriot and the hero to 'he coward and the villain—men of firofli; ate live*, fujritlv^s fiomjustice, and de- serters from foreign service. i", But were the General assured, that every Can of his camp hart conibined to violate thtir .oaths, to abandon their dc;y, and defy Govern- In,it and the law, by an act of desperation", 8s foolish as it would he cowardly, wtckcd., and perfidious, they should march to the gibbet over hii wod> because his life, compared to the, fa 1 h¡u! discharge of the high trust confided to 11'HI, would he hut a feather its the balance. In such a disgraceful extremity, the General would save his own honour by shooting the first man who resisted his orders, in which he can have no doubt he would he gallantly seconded by every tfi'icmafl who wears a commission, and by every er of courage and honour. The officers (Yf this army are commanded to Groat the most prompt obedience from their in- f, xs. ao,(to punish on the spot, any man. who v.,i y pause over an order, or utter a seditious ex- pression.

Mr. Parke stated this to be an action brought, by the Plaintiff, an auctioneer in the country, to recover froei Parry Jones Parry, Esq, and Gwiliiam ij/loyd Wafdie,- Esq. indemnity for a loss he had sustained in conse- quence of having been employed to sell an Estate ill the courtly A)f A w.Ititli,beloitged-to the defendants, as de-vif-ees of arMther gentteman of the name of, It would appear that at, appointed for tlbe, sile, a sealed pa per' was laid on ilte iaWe, specilyiag a I)articti- Iar sum, to which, u" (hu b.ditings should not amount, the eitn'o »i"i not to be esteemed as sold. planiiitT, who \và.s a young man, was startled at this pmceettib^ because as the Aucti- on Duty fell, on th« a*»ctioi)eer, aod he did not know whether duty was or was not payable in snch a-case- a-, this, in the event of C, siliri in, the scaled packet e\^td.nfi the t rict1 offered, he was afraid th it the tin y i i h b' exacted from him, withouthis hivuis any clainiupoh the defendants to relieve- him. Mr. Ellis,- wha acted at the sale as Agent for both tiie defendants Mr. Part-y be- irifr also present,assured the plaintiff, that in such a case no duty way payable, a diiiiib bidder being perfectly allowable. The plaintiff, however, not being satisfied wi 'fli this assurance, Mr. Ellis un- dertook for the defendants .that they should keep :he iff harmless. Proceedings were after- warids had against the plaintiff in Exchequer for the penalties, and his bond had been put in suit. It was to recover the indemnity thus promised to 'he plaintitf rhat the present ;>cti.on was brought. Lord Idlenborough said an to in- demnify from penalties was void in itself: Mr. Garrow (who held the Attorlicy-Genertlls brief for the defendants) said, they had still another defence. There was here 110 joint under- taking. Mi. Parke said, Ellis was the Agent of both the defendants.

Mr. Came#, Wa* also ^Counsel for the plaintiff, stated that there was a count in the i, declaration in which nothing illegal appeared, bnt it was charged, that the undertaking was to relieve the plaintiff of the Duties. Lord Elleaborough said, that surely was a le- gal undertaking, and he should hear what the plaititiif's witnesses could say. Mr. Garrow, observed, that the penalties seemed to have been sued for in Jlilary Term, 1802, (when his Lordship was Attorney General), though he presumed his Lordship had forgot it. Mr. Grindley, Clerk of the Peace for thecowi- ty of Anglesea-j was about to prove an undertak- ingby Mr. Ellis, as agent for Mr. Wardle, hut Mr. Wardle not being present at the time, and Mr. Ellis being dead, so that Mr, Wardle's au- thority to Mr. Ellis to enter into the undertaking could not be proved, the evidence was deexiied in- !adll1i3s¡bk.

FRIDAY, DEC. S. CRtSf. CON. TAUNTON «. IV VBORNE. This waa an action for damages, brought by I the plaintiiEagainst the defendant, for criminal conversation, with the wife of the former. The plaintiff, Mr. Taunton, is an Attorney of eminence, resident in Essex-street, in the Strand; and the dtrfejidant/Wyborne, is a Barrister, who atso lives in the same street, and is besides a i marri<jU naan.—^The plaintiif laid his damages at ■l&fOOUt The plaintiff had been, married to Mrs. Taun- ton about four years, and had three children by her. There was a variety of evidence adduced to shew that after their marriage they were a very affectionate, couple, and that they had lived to- geiher with f.lie gieaxest harmony and affection until thepsriod of the unhappy connectiolllddch Mrs. Taunton had formed with the defendant It appeared that in the course of the year 18UE; and soon after the birth of her youngest child, Mrs. Taunton had formed the most intima r habit's with the IV y bo rue hm if and that her affections were gradually aiicn.i l from I)Cr husband. In order to facilitate t> criminal infercpurse which then began to place between her and the defendant, the )atv:¡ took all room, in the name of Jones, in thehollse of a Mrs. Stewart, i.1I New Bogwelu court. This was inrihe month, of March and here the parties used to meet together twice or thi ice a week..

A last. the suspicions of the unfortunate husband were excited by-a variety of circumstances; and Mrs. Taimfon liaviBg chanced to drop, a note addressed to Mrs. Jones, at this hotise in Bos- whij-conrt. a discovery of the intercourse, which took p¡ace!)Ch,.e(!1 them was the natural con- sequence. The proofs of criminal connection I were rather of an inferential'nature, than direct in their tendency, such as ihep,uties being c!o- seted in. this room for hours together, the sofa being found much tumbled on their departure, and other circumstances, of a similar nature. The circumstances setup by tlie defendant in mitigation inf.damages were of a very extraordi- nary 1 lie A female, of the name of Anne Belt, v h been a servant ih the house of the j <i tip. was brought forward. She previounly been p wailed upon to make two affidavits, which evened circumstances as com- ing w,1 Per Imo iVlei/gc, which materially nfFecled M." character of 1 he. plaintiff. One of these AJS, that she had" witnessed such gross indecency on the part of the plaintiff, as to have seen him in bed with his wife and his wife's sister at the same time. This., however, was ex- pressly cow ran ict pd by another femate.servant, who swore- ibat. the eircumstanccs which gave occasion to this most nefarious allegation were these Mrs. Taunton's sister, a lady of the name of Breeze, who lived in the Tower, hrfppenpd one night to have gone to the Opera, and it beiii, rather too lateto- return home, she very naturally agreed to sleep in Essex-street but a Mr Pop- pleweil and his wife being also there, all the heds were occupied, and Mrs. Taimton's sister- slept upon a bed-chair in her sister's bed-room, merely wrapping herself up in flanufej, and ttia, when Mr. Tauuton roscin the morning, she wen to bed to her sister, in order to enjoy some more comfortable repose. it, 'wa's also deposed on the trial, that this Anne Bell had said to sonic of hei- fellow servants, that if evef she was brought into a Court of Justice on this busi- ness, she,would!bc d-d if she spoke ever a word of truth. This Anne Bell also swore, that Mrs. Taunton was reudered very u-nhappy-by the ill-usage of her husband; but this likewise was expressly contradicted by other evidence. Impu- tations were also attempied to be thrown on the character of Mrs. Taunton, previous to the cri- minal intercourse with the defendant, arising from circumstances which occurred at Broad stairs in the summer of 1808, while her husband was in London stieh as leaving slept out from her lodg- ings one night, and. another time having been accompanied home by an Officer at ajr. titiseasoti able hour. Upon the examination of the evidence, however, it did not appear that there Vias any thing seriojus in these insinuations.

MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT. The weather, in I heearly part of last month, has beta extremeiy favourable to the young wheats, Which require a mild seasoe to give I hem firm root to wnthstand the storms and frosts of winter. The.early sown spreads wcllulion the ground, and looks very healthy the latter, owing to the dry weather, is but just livakiug its appearance, and will require some open mild days lo bring out the flag, to cover the land, which is so necessary to ensure a good crop. The new wheats rise better to the llail than was expected their quality is, in general, fine, from their (lot haingreceived so much injury from the rains as wajtjsuppoa- ech. The straw in some countries is rather short. Darleyslha.t were harvested without rain are of a very coarse aud ordinary quality 5 the ttraw being very naggy, it rcqutres much trouble and great, care to seperate the corn from it when threshed. Oats rise well to the flail, and only require some sharp frosty wea- ther to make them good provender, Pease and beans, where they have been threshed for hog-seed, turn out more^than an average crop. The late sovcu turnips are very much improved; and the very favourable weather in the early part of last month has enabled the farmers to graze off their heavy .crops of lattermaths, aud keep tfeeir cattfie out of the straw-yard.

ACCIDENTS, OFFENCES, c AWftl L,RV,FP(T,-Oil Monday morning last, a shocking spectacle was presented to the in- habitants of Carmarthen. The master of a trading vessel belonging to that port, accom- panied by a ferna! had gone on board his ship the preceding evening, both in a state of inebriety, as is supposed, and the vessel hav- ing- just undergone fumigation to destroy the rats, they were both suffocated in the cabin their bodies were brought ashore in the morn mg, when, their distorted features appalled every beholder,, and shewed the extreme seve- nty or their sufferings previously to the vital spark being extinguished. MONSTER.—The Vicinity of Croydon, in Stirrey, INIS been alarmed, for this fortnight past, by an inhuman wretch, who sallies out at night, in a black mask, a dark coloured doak, and military boots, with long spurs. He is a tall stout made man. His practice is to attack all the women whom lie meets. Having let the object pass, he turns round, and seizing her by the shoulders, lie shakes and pinches her in a violent manner. He con- cludes the brutal assault, by passing her clo itiis over her head, and tearing her person with a curry-comb; sometimes his spurs are applied to the same cruel and inhuman pur- pose. Upwards of fifty persons have been most seriously ill-treated by this monster.- The inhabitants of Croydou are taking every means to discover the monster's retreat; nu- merous parties werfc out last night in search of him. The terror is so great among the -f I t, females of k,he vicinity of Croydon, that not a woman is to be seen out of doors after, dark. Thomas Daly, the watchman, who is charg- W,tl!
