, • . • • Web -those who may be intipeed tblials with a mob' Awing only the violation of the peace, - the danger , of being led on to thp commission of the blackest crimes, which must inevitably bring them to destruc tion. I have only farther to remark, that I hope we shall not have to repent the lenity which the Crown has authorized us to shew to the, misguided men who now stand at the bar." Mr. Justice Armor then addressed the prisoners as I follows : " Prisoners at the bar-The Learned Gentlemen who have appeared here on the behalf of the public, to conduct the prosecution against the very numerous offenders who were Drought for justice here, have, in the exercise of their discretion, given you the oppor tunity of returning to society, without being subject to take your trials for the bills which have been found against you, on your own security, and the security of such friends as you may find, to appear here at a future time, accompanied with an assurance to you. that if you shall conduct yourselves quietly, soberly, and peaceably, you shall never again be called upon. I trust the very great lenity which they have dis played on this occasion will have its due effect upon your mindi, and that on your return to your houses, you will not only conduct yourselves quietly, bat warn your friends and neighbours to behaVe in like manner. The propriety of the discretion which has been exercised will never be cal:ed iu question, un less you abuse the mercy which has been extended to you. The Court trusts that it will operate on your future lives, and that you will not be the less re strained from the commission of fresh crimes, than you would have been if you had been brought to some punishment. I now suffer you to depart. You will have your friends here to-morrow mining to enter into security for your good behaviour, but to] an amount that will not deter any person from being responsible for you. Each of you may give his own recognizance for 419, and find two sureties for 4110 each, or one surety fur 420." The Learned Judge then addressed the Grand Ju ry as follows : " Gentlemen of the Grand Jury—The country is greatly indebted to you for the services you have al ready performed ; but as it may be necessary that you should reassemble, if fresh disturbances should be committed, the Court cannot dismiss you in the usual way. You are for the present dismissed, and the country is obliged to you for the firm and manly way in which you have discharged your duties." Several of the prisoners entered into recognizance& in Court ; and the whole were about to retire, when Mr. Justice Anwar desired to make one other obser vation to them. He exhorted them, on their return to their homes, to avoid all excess of liquor, and not to drink and tipple at public-houses. Such practices were must pernicious to themselves, and injurious to their families. It appeared that these transactions had arisen from a moo issuing out of a public-house. This was the origin of the present mischief's, and others of the like nature. He cautioned them there fore to avoid such meetings, and such conduct, for the future. The Court then adjourned till this day. •` 4 ,ll' 4 'T ": 1 •7•1r7' - '77 VY • f -~.~ . ~: --------' -.-1- i S PFX ha, CO,MMIS.9IOII .47' II tratileg 21 1 oiPORTING 1141211LLIGENCE. • • -: .

Richard Cooper the elder, and Richard Cooper the younger, were also boundia recognizances to appear at the next Assizes, and take their trial for riotous conduct in the town of Ely. William Bemis: the elder, and Williams Beamise the younger, were then put to the liSr, and indicted for having, on Wednesday, the 22d day of May last, fes loniously assaulted Robert Cheeseright the younger, of Littleport, in the ' Isle of Ely, and put him in bodily fear, and with having taken from his person' a banker's cash note of the value of AI. The indict ment contained two other counts, charging the pri soners with an assatilr on Robert Cheeseright the elder, and with having feloniously taken the said note from him. Mr. GURNEY addressed the Jury.—lt had been im possiblii to consider the several cases which had come under their consideration without very melancholy reflections ; but none could be more afflicting dials to see father and son standing indicted together for a robbery. They had both engaged in the riot in the town of Littleport, which produced so many excesses. The mob had been at several houses, when Mr. Cheeseright heard that they were approaching his dwelling ; and knowing what would be his fate if ha resisted, he gave his sun the note, in order that he miBht hand it over to the mob, to protect his house and property ; and young Cheeseright, in his father's presence and by his order, gave the note, which was demanded by William Bearaiss the son, and token by his father.

" GLENARVAN"—The following are extracts from the Preface to the Second Edition of this interesting and extraordinary productions Glenarvon was written and committed to the press without permission, communication, advice, or assistance—this may account for, though it can not excuse all the slighter, and many it is trusted, of the more serious errors of the composition.— With respect to the character:, the painter well kndws, that when he is sketching the personages of his. tory, or the creatures of his imagination, the linea ments, with which he is most familiar, will some times almost involuntarily rise beneath the touch of his pencil. The same cause has perhaps produced in this work, those resemblantes, it resemblances they be. which have been recognized, admitted, claimed with so much eagerness, and then condemned with so much asperity. Yet a distinction is always to be drawn between the attompt at painting human nature as it is, and the base desire of deforming and degrading it. Much of the ridicule which has received a personal application, is harmless in itself, and directed against trifling peculiarities ; some imputations there are, no doubt, of a heavier nature, and these were conceived to have been justified by injury and provocation. An appeal is .still confidently urged to those who have read impartially, whether, whatever may be the cha racter of the more general reflections, the features of the few supposed portraits are overcharged and dis torted, as it by the hand of malevolence, or whether their beauties are not studiously heightened and brought forth, and their defects in some measure thrown into shade and concealed."—We understand there exists a. great difference of opinion on this point among the fashionable would.
