p I' 'OU Prison-room, House or Commons, Jure szo, 1324 7 Sin —According to your orders, I am visotai daily by one or two doctors, the same who reported me of unsound mind. I trust before the end of the Session they will recant, and report me quite the reverse. That they may know me beaer, I talk to them freely, and am sorry that there is not a window in my breast for them to see my heart, instead of judging by conversation only. They have not yet handled my head, and unless they ask leave, I shall believe them to have more sense than mere phrenologists. As it is an established fact that" great wk to madness is allied," we shall not gnat.- rel because of the first report. It was very 'lke the act of a madman to whip a Member of your llonoui able House within the threshold ; but so were a hundred deeds of greater men than your prisoner—to say nothing of those of him as ho should he our example in all things. I was, Sir, flora infancy, of a sanguine, speculative, and entlinsia aic temperament; and the concatenation of events conspired to heighten this. Just now • six years ago, after being most cruelly, most unjustly, most illegally, and most unnecessarily imprisoned for six months, I was still more cruelly, unjustly, illegally, and unnecessarily shot up within a room of the prison for six weeks ; by the end of which time, weakened and exasperated,.my net vous system was seriously injured ; and being banished without proof of crime; banished from a country where I had property, friends, good in tentions, and great hope of accomplishment, I came home to England only to discover greater misfortunes, and to be exposed to the greatest of all trials. Four years, Sir, have gone hy, in which, were my history detailed, the wonder would be, how I bad strength of mind and sufficient good principle to sustain me. It is only a month ago since real comfort dawned upon me, through a decision of the Lords, which ensured bread to my children, long most unjustly withheld; and it is only within this month . that I have enjoyed anything like unalloyed happiness for these last four gloomy years—only within this month that I have felt assurance that I may yet recover from trial, and make advan tar of it. nth, Sir, is Sunday—a day a hich I was bred up to hold sacred; and which I shall ever revere, even as a civil institution. This is a day ins which you ought to reflect seriously ; on which, freeing your mind from all the fashions of men, you should thick abstractedly of pure goodness. I have petitioned Parliament on great subjects systematically for eight years ; and my Peti tions of the last four years have been recorded in the Parliamentary Journals. Say nothing of my private concerns, in which I can produce documents to attest my correctness—accounts and correspondence regularly filed, through a period of upwards of twenty years; say nothing of my having been beset for the greater past of this time by law persecution, and in every in stance having come off conqueror ; say nothing of my being shut up here, and reported of unsound mind, when the very doctors themselves will, by and bye, be brought to a better opinion; say nothing of all this, but take my printed Petitions of 182% 1821, 1822, 1825, and 1824.; take these Petitions, and let me be judged by them. These Petitions, Sir, will not only acquit me from charges of being unsound in mind, but if you will this day peruse them (and they are not unfit for perusal this dal)—if you will on this day, sacred to truth and goodness, seriously jperuse these Petitions, you will think me worthy of being heard at the bar of Parliament; or, if you would rather have it, before a Committee in this room, to plead specially, on the prayers of my Petitions, to answer to interrogatories, and to amplify. The subjects are out of sight the most important for inquiry of any which now concern the welfare of England—l may say, the welfare of the world : poor-law reform, and emigration connected with it ; the improvement of the British peasantry ; and the spread of industrious honest men throughout the earth.; the growth of humanity, and the glory of GOD. —I am your obedient servant, To the Right Hon. the Speaker.

Saturday last, Ellen Till and Jahn Mead, foctman to Lord Ross more. were charged with robbing his Lordship of a miniature set in gold, and a fine chrystal box, mounted with gold.—Remanded. LAMBETH -STREET. Saturday, William Hay, landlord of the City of Carlisle, public house, Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel, appeared before Mr. WrArr, upon an information laid against him at the instance of Henry Paul son, one of the Bow-street patrol, charging him witb having, on the 10th inst. allowed persons to play, in his house, at the games of dominoes and cards. Paulson stated, that on the day mentioned in the information, be tween seven and eight o'clock is the evening, he went into Mr. Hay's house, where he saw several persons in the tap-room, playing at dominoes ; and on going into the parlour, there were two diffe rent companies playing at cards, Mr. Hay himself making one of the party so playing. Mr. Wvore, on looking at the Act, said it only applied to jour neymen, labourers, and apprentices; and as it was satisfactorily proved, that in this case all the persons present were master trades men and housekeepers, the Act, therefore, did not apply to them, and he dismissed the information.—Mr. Hay and his friends re spectfully withdrew. TOWN-HALL. The wife of a tortoise-shell comb-maker, in the vicinage of Blackfriars-road, appeared to answer the complaint of her servant maid, Maria Westcombe. Her master and mistress had company, and the crockery was high in demand. Some slight omission on her part, in !eluding the different services to her mistress, brought down her displeasure upon her with such severity, that she knocked her down with the spit. got her fingers Into b.e mouth sod Mt them severely, calling her most infamous names. The Lady said she had taken the complainant, " a poor, dirty, deplorable object," into the house from compassion, and had for her humanity the base return of being stung by the viper she bad nourished, who had inveigled her husband into a barefaced and shameful amour with her. She (the defendant) was obliged to do the work of the house, while her husband's minion was pampered above stairs, and encouraged to in solence and blowi against her, as auxiliaries to the beatings he him- Self inflicted three or four times a week. The husband denied that such was the case, and said that all the evils arose from the insur mountable jealousy of his wife.—Defendant ordered to find bail. CORONER'S INQUEST. OXFORD, JUNE 19. Yesterday an Inquisition was taken by W. MACRT, Esq. Coroner, at South Lawn Lodge, in the Forest of Wychwood, in this county, on the body of James Millin ' assistant keeper to Lord Churchill, the Ranger of the Forest, who was found shot, and in a dying state, on Tuesday evening last, between nine and ten o'clock‘ in a copse called Hensgrove. Mr. Young, a farmer of the neighbourhood, deposed, that at the time above mentioned, he heard the report of a gun, and that imme diately afterwards a person called for assistance.—He hastened to the spot, and found the deceased lying on the ground, and bleeding profusely from a wound in the left thigh. He immediately went to Astall for assist ance. When he returned, he found Millin in the same situation, with his brother and two other persons by him. He then appeared sensible, called for water, and said that he had been shot by poachers, although he did not see them. Joseph Millin, the brother of the deceased, Lord Churchill's keeper, deposed, that on the same evening he was going his rounds, when he heard the report of a gun, which appeared to come from Hensgrove Copse. In going towards the spot he met with Henry Pittaway and W. James, who were going the same way, in con sequence of having heard the report of the gun. They asked Joseph Millin, if he had shot? he said he had not, but some one else had. They said they heard a shot, and the cry of murder, and from the voice they thought it was James Millin. They proceeded onwards, and found the deceased as before described. They carried him to South House Lodge, the residence of Joseph his brother, where he expired about eleven the same evening. Since the death of James, his brother Joseph, the de ponent, examined the spot where deceased had been shot, and plainly discovered the place whence the gun had been discharged, by. the marks of powder on the leaves and branches of the trees, about ten yards from the place where deceased fell. In a direct line was found a leaden bullet, which bad ploughed up the ground, and was found, in the presence of deponent, buried therein. James could give no account of the person or persons who shot him. Mr. Batt, surgeon of Witney, proved that the wound was from a gun shot in the inner part of the left thigh, which divided the femoral artery, and produced hemor rhage, which caused his death. Verdict— Wilful Ma dea against some person or persons unknown. Two persons suspected of the murder were taken up and examined, but no evidence being adduced against them they were discharged. It is conjectured that James was shot by mistake, as he hAd been only a short time in the service of Lutd Churchill, and that the mur derers imagined it was his brother, who has been very active in the detection of poachers. The deceased has left a wile and one child, and was a remarkably sober and steady mars. Tro ma SPEAK 11111111.1"1111"P-. LE I'l'ER "I"I"III.G6PURLAY tz,......nr rnmmons.

Just before ascending, the barometer s•eod at e 9 inches 8-10ths, thermometer 66 degree*, the hygi =suer 17 dry; tune of starch g precisely five minutes past six o'clock. The balloon rose most majestically, and we were directly above Waterloo Bridge at eight minutes and a half past six. At this nonneut the barometer was at n inches 4 10ths, and we could observe every street of the me tropolis from Blackwall to Kensington. The scene of the environs wits beautiful beyond description, a n d everything could be seen distinctly; every object appearing as fiat as on a anap—even the hill. seemed to be sunk on the same level with the. valleys. At 16 minutes past six the batsnieter was at 25 inches 3.loths, and when the thermometer was at 39 degrees, hygrometer ttO dry, we passed through the clouds, and getting into another current of air, the bal loon 'evolved gently, which cau.ed a ►light feeling of sickness; the clouds while vie were passing theough, appeared like a mist, and the hygrometer still shewed three degrees dryer than when on the earth. Wt experienced now a disagreeable noise iu the car, (what is com monly called " a singing"), which continued the whole time after, and did not leave me till this mooting. On ascending above the clouds, they appeared like a sea of frozen snow, with dark fissures between, acid in sonic places the cloud► opened, and gave us a distinct view of the City, and metropolis and its environs. The sky above was beautifully blue, and the sun Atone brilliantly, tinging with a silvery hue the tops of the wide expanse of clouds, and particularly those that rose like mountains above the others. There were still a few white clouds at a great distance above its. '1 he car again revolved in a current of air. Ba rometer at 21 in. 5-10ths. The highest point we attained was, by the barometer, 19 in. 2-10ths; the hygrometer 32 dry; thermo meter 32 degrees ; time twenty minutes to seven. We now heard the report of a gun, v. bich we had heard once or twice before. We now let off a pigeon from a basket, having first fastened a to it, on which we wrote " Clouds." The pigeon, after making two or three circles, darted throu s h the cloud, towards the earth.— Whenever we caught glimpses of the country through the clouds; the view was beautiful alai interesting; but the sight of the silvery sea of clouds to the very verge cf the horizon was truly magnificent. The sun shone on same parts of the Thames which were visible to ua and was reeested beautifully. The !liver itself seemed dwindled to a small stream—so made so, that we could not distinguish any objects on it. The barometer now Stout! at ID inches ti-lOths ; thermometer Z 1 degrees; time eighteen minutes to seven. The balloon had not hitherto appeared to make much progress except in elevation, but now it waited rapidly to the South, acid a small portion of gas being let out, we gradually commenced our descent. On repassing the clouds, the barometer was .22 inches 3-I °Cis ; thermometer, 3R degrees; hygrometer, 's.sdry; time, three minutes to seven. The sensation in the ears still continued. We now descended rapidly, which gave a disagreeable impression of space without any object to rest the eye uu. The voice seemed weakvi and lower than either above or below the clouds. The bal loon ;spin revolved, and at seven o'clock every uujert became per fect.) distinct, the sheep appeared like dots and the trees bier beadle,. la three minutes after, Mr. Graham threw out his grappling irons, acid the balloon descended with sutprisiug rapidity, and we could bee the people cumin to meet us.
