TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR: is—The measure adopted by Government, of adding 10,000 town 'Military Establishment, has given rain to much anima& ine Although Ministers have been deservedly censured for 'precipitate approval of the iniquitous conduct of the Ma nes Ad Yeomanry of Manchester, yet the measure I allude out be coesidercel as necessary. That by the assemblage of pouititedes the lives and property of others may be endan d, we know by experience. It is provided by Law, that, on n cantons, a Military Force shall support the Civil Power. ,Feri2.t ag.kinst this exigency is the duty of the Executive ev. Tht questitm is then simply this :—ls the actual state Milit..ry Establishment adequate to this service? Then lox it present more that 60G0 effective men in this part of ttsited Kingdom. A considerable part of them cannot be &drawn from indispensable Garrison duties. Were the tamed simultaneous Radical Meetings to take plate, it Is ble that the remainder of this force could be divided so ma with effect: consequently, an augmentation of strength WY. The mode of carrying this measure into execution 1113 ;teen blamed ; particularly the calling in of the Pen- It ho been said that more efficient men ought to have Iced upon. But the plain fact is this : From the selection am be made out of that class, a sufficient number of men berated to relieve the Regiments employed in Garrisons, timeby render them di.posable for active service. At least, 'trimly of this wade cannot be called in question. Each :ere men will not cause an increase of expense of more than pact three farthings ; and as the desired object will be fully MO es. -et, this expense is but a trifling consideration. tita Ilarltivßaig h.; t reel.

ACCIDILNT us TIE DOCR-YMID, PLYMOUTIL—A tem porary dam had been constructed at the stern of the South dock, in this ,Dockyard, for the purpose of protecting the workmen, who were preparing for putting in new gates ; about half-past two o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, it then being nearly half tide, the enormous pressure of the water, estimated at least at 500 tons, suddenly broke through the dam, and coming in contact with the shores supporting a bridge or brow across, on which were 40 or 50 persons passing and repassing, it instantly en guiphed the whole in the rushing flood, which continued in a state of the most violent fermentation for several minutes. Many boats being near the basin, by dint of uncommon exertions, the spectators succeeded in rescuing and bringing ashore all who were visible, some with broken limbs, and others with severe contusions. Some persons were missing. Mr. Smith, surveyor of the works, immediately removed the diving vessel front Ha moaze into the bason, where, notwithstanding the turbid con dition of the water, and the confusion of the scene, he promptly descended. After searching at the bottom some little time, he brought up the body of Joseph Crocker, a caulker, one of the missing, but ton late, we regret to say, to save his life. Shortly afterwards it was ascertained that a seaman belonging to the or dinary, called Libby, was missing. Mr. Smith descended again in the bell, but without success : on the tide receding, he was found in a spot beyond the reach of the diving bell. Thus by a circumstance, in which blame seems imputable to no one, two lives have been lost, two bad their limbs fractured, and five have received contusions.—A Coroner's Inquest has been held on the bodies of the unfortunate deceased, which returned a verdict of—Accidental Death. Crocker, we hear, has left a wife and four children to lament his loss. To-monitow, it is said, never arrives, but those who are not of that opinion will take care to apply before TO-MORROW, at either of CA:most:s Offices, No. 19, Cornhill, and 26, Oxford•street, for a chance of the EIGHT Prizes of 00,000, Two of wh;ch MUST be drawn in the first Five Minutes To-moaaow.—Re. coilecthe t that No. 1,345, the last 1.:20,000, and No. 706, last 20,000 Guineas ever drawn, were Sold by CARROLL.

EXECUTIONS. GLASGOW, NOVEMBER 5. Wednesday, the City of Glasgow exhibited the lamentable spectacle r,f the execution of four young men, in front of the Jail, for house-breaking and theft, viz. Robert M'Kinlay, alias Rough Rab, William Bu chanan, Hunter Guthrie, and Alexander Forbes. The two former were convicted of robbing Bothwell Castle ; and the latter two of breaking into the house of Alexander *Laren, weaver, Kilmarnock. The prisoners had been constantly attended, and assisted m their devotions, by Dr. CHALMERS, his assistant Mr. IRVING, Mr. EWING, and a number of the other Ministers of the City. The prisoners were brought into the Hail at two o'clock, and, being seated, Dr. CHALMERS read out the 116th Psalm, which was sung, and made an appropriate prayer, and again .ave out the 130th Psalm. The prisoners joined in the devotions, and behaved with decent composure. When the last Psalm was sung, Dr. CHALMERS said, the Psalms they had just sung, were Psalms of hope and joyfulness, and during the whole course of his prison experience, he had never seen persons in their situation give such evident symptoms of complete repentance as some of these prisoners had done. If there were any people within hearing of him, who had been guilty of acts of profligacy, he warned them against thinking they might go on in wicked ness, and at last get the Minister to pray them into felicity. If they harboured any such fallacious hopes, thefc ompletely misunderstood the Gospel, for nothing but a well-spent life could give presumptive evidence .offuture happiness ; and those who had been guilty [of acts Of profligacy, and of breaking the laws of .Gon and their Country, were to take care that the spectacle of that day should never be obliterated from their memory. Mr. IRVING prayed ; the Hall was cleared, and the prisoners mounted the scaffold. The caps were put on the men ; but M'Kinlay pulled his off his fact, and embraced and kissed the boy, Buchanan, whom he had been the means of bringing to his untimely end. His face was now flushed ; he looked on the boy, and then turned round and viewed the people who were under the pillars, at the Court-hall door. The hangman put on the rest of the caps ; and, during this time, and till they were thrown off, Buchanan continued praying, while his, companions continued to look on him, and alter nately to the northward, withan anxious expression of countenance. Forbes prayed also the moment the cap was drawn over his face. Buchanan was so agi tated that he inquired whether the rope was round his neck ? a few moments before it was. M'Kinlay could not be persuaded to turn from the boy, and it became necessary to alter the rope, and, even during this process, he pulled up his cap again. The execu tioner requested he would desist, he replied—" Well well, for Gon's sake, give me plenty of rope !" He held his head as erect as ever, even after the rope had been tied. Guthrie gave the signal, and they were let down, but the fill was not more than one-half the distance it usually is, and the struggle was truly appalling, and continued fully three minutes, parti cularly of the boy Buchanan, whose hand M'Kinlay had grasped at the moment the drop fell.' From the swinging of the bodies they came in contact with each other. They raised their hands as if to grasp at something, and an involuntary shudder ran through the multitude. After hanging the usual time, 41 minutes, they Waif taken down and returned to the Jail-building', in coffins, till it was convenient for their friends to bury them. Some blood oozed from M'Kinlay's mouth. He was remarkably stout. Buchanan was 18 years old. During the time the men were hang ing a portion of the paling opposite the Jail gave way, and a great noise and confusion ensued. • Guthrie and Forbes, who appeared truly penitent, ' never ceased to speak of the unwearied and affection ate visits made to them by Mr. IRVING. William Buchanan was a native of Glasgow, and spent the greater part of his life in Gorbals. He had not learned any regular business, but occasionally assisted his father, who is a founder or machine-maker. Robert M'Kinlay was a native of Glasgow, bad been some time at sea, but had not a regular trade. Alexander Forbes was also a native of Glasgwo, and by trade a Cloth Lapper. Hunter Guthrie was a native of Paisley. Till within the last two years he bore an excellent cha racter. A letter of his. written a few hours before his execution, states, that he was brought up by his parents in the fear of GOD, receiving a suitable education; and that he learned the trade of a weaver, at which he became very expert, making great wages, till he arrived at the age of 19, when he lett off attending the church, took up with females, spent his earnings freely, devoted much of his time to cards and dice, and ultimately committed crimes that led him into the awful state in which he was while writing. For the last three months CARLILE has received not less than £3OO a week. Within these six months he could not have made less in clear profit than £2OOO. Fifty-nine Editions of the Scriptures, consisting of 270,000 copies, are now printing by the Bible Society. Tickets .

COURT OF EING's BENcm, NOVEMBER 6. This being the first day of Michaelmas Term, all the Judges, except Mr. Justice listimisosatfasted with the LORD CHANCR4LOR. The Learned Judge last mentioned sat at ten o'clock to take bail in the Duchy Court. About one o'clock the LORD CHAN. cat. Lon, and the other Judges, came down in state to Westminster Hall, and took their seats in their Courts respectively. CRIMINAL. INFORMATION AGAINST MR. AND MRS. CAR IA LE. Mr. GURNEY, on being called on in turn, rose and moved for leave to file a Criminal Information against Richard Carlile, and Charlotte, his wife, for the pub lication of a blasphemous libel. He reminded the Court that Richard Carlile was tried at the late Sit- tings at Guildhall, for the publication of two blas phemous libels, of which he was convicted. The first . _ _ _ was a book called The Age of Reason, in Three Parts. In the course of his defence he read the whole of that infamous book, pa: titular parts only of which had been selected fur prosecution. This course of proceeding had been adopted for the purpose of pro ducing, by such means, a more extended publication of the horrible contents of the libellous work ; for be (Mr. Gurney) had an affidavit, which stated, that some time since Mr. Cathie had published an adver tisement, announcing that " The Mock Trial (for so ' he had libelled the administration of public justice) of Mr. Carlile will be published in sheets, at two pence each ;" and added, that in so many sheets the report of the four days trial would be completed, and concluded with announcing, that " the first sheet is now ready for delivery. The publication will pro ceed till it is completed." From this it appeared, that the work was coming out, sheet by sheet, at the price of two-pence. The affidavit further stated, that Mr. Carlile being its cust'dy, in consequence of the convictions already mentioned, Mrs. Carlile, his wife, WAS personally carrying on the business of his shop, and was selling, with her own hands, these portions of her husband's trial. Now, if this mode of pro ceeding succeeded, it would he a complete receipt for the most extensive publication of the trials in the cheapest possible way, and thus the blasphemous book, which was the subject of prosecution, would find its way to the Public, in a channel infinitely more mischievous, because capable of wider circula tion, than it was before. The Learned Counsel said he had five numbers of the trial, the last three of which contained the whole of the first part of The Age of Reason ; and thus, for the price of sixpence, the Public were supplied with the poisonous matter it contained. The mode of publication by sheets evi dently sheaved that the object of the party was to send forth the libel, of which he had been convicted, in a more saleable shape, by reason of its cheapness, and, at the same time, of repeating the dangeroes offence he had committed. By assuming this shape, it was more within the reach of those who were most likely to be affected by its profligate tendency, than in that in which it was originally published. The in formation upon which the publisher had been con victed, set forth only certain passages of the blasphe mous book, although almost every page of it might have formed the subject of an information. He (Zr. Gurney) need not remind the Lord Chief Justice, that very many other passages might have been inserted in the information than ,those which were set forth, and which had only been selected by way of sample; but his Lordship and the Jury were compelled to endure the painful and disgusting task of sitting nine hours, which were employed by the defendant in the recital of the whole work. He (Mr. Gurney) hoped it would not be requisite for him to state any thing in recommendation, or in support of his present mo tion ; still less to offer any argument upon the ques tion) whether the libel thus republished by these per sons, was of a pernicious and blasphemous tendency? He submitted to the Court, that it was impossible these persons, under pretence of publishing the trial, could be at liberty to give a wider circulation to those libels which were the subject of the trial. If this were permitted, it would open the door to the grossest abuses. In the case of an obscene publica tion, passages only of which might be selected for prosecution, the publisher, on his trial, might chose to read the whole of it, and thus, under pretence of defending. himself, adopt such a mode of republish ing the whole work, under another form, and thereby aggravate the mischief for which he was called upcn to answer. In the present case, passages only had been selected for prosecution, but the defendant had thought proper to read the whole of the work, in his . defence, for the purpose of affording himself the op portunity of republishing it in a new shape. This could not he endured, and no rule of law could sanc tion the proceeding. Judges had repeatedly inti mated that such a republication was unlawful, and was the subject of criminal prosecution. This had been so declared in the case of the King v. Williams, who was convicted for publishing this very libel. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—I believe the Judges inti mated the same opinion . in the case of the King v. Creivey. Mr. GURNEY said, that was a very different case froth the present. It had been frequently declared incidentally, by different Judges, that this was an offence punishable criminally. Expressions of this kind had repeatedly fallen from the Court within his (Mr•. Gurney's) own knowledge and experience. On mcre occasions than one Lord Ellenborough had so expressed himself; and so had the present Chief Jus tice. Lord Ellenborough had said, that it would be a great abuse of the privilege allowed to a defendant, if he were at liberty to re-publish the libel, which he had been permitted to read in his defence. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—Courts of Justice are often obliged to hear publications, as matter of evidence,. in ttie administration of justice, which it would be extrejneltimproper to rc-publish in a printed form. Mr. GURNEY—Your Lordships are often con demned in Court to bear the most painful and dis gusting publications. This may be necessary for the purposes of justice, but it cannot be neces,at y that a man should do this, for the purpose of afterwards re publishing, sheet by sheet, the libellous work for which he is prosecuted, under the pretence of calling it a report of his trial. Such is the I.resent cas t s, an d it is attended with this aggravating circumstance, that being published in numbers, the PUbl:c may buy the libellous work without the trial. That is tte way in whichthe trial is published% I thought it dem- 14 I -" ; Y i t • 1.; I '''' . 1 • E 4 •., t . 1 ' ' '- - • • I % • , • 'I; '' <1 1 . 4 c • . 4 1.. i '.l' .. : i' . • 1 : 4 1 e . ° 1 •1 I I . . 1 1 , 1 • ( • rl, . f •I''' 11 11 . . • . ;, , , ' F - 1 •`' l .. . , . , • ;•, 'll4, ei,, • • • • al , , ,-. •.. ~ .1 ' , . : b... 3 ' I 1 • I 1 • i 1 , • 4 . 1„. . $. it • • i ' I J , i , . 1 Ii ; . 4 v :' I
