The case for the prosecution was closed on Monday; and on the same day Mr. BARROW was heard in defence of Jones and Moor/rouse; Mr. HOLT on behalf of Saxton ; and Sug t, Henley, John:on, and Bamford, for themselves. Mr. Hunt was to make his defence on Tuesday morning ; and this, with the examination of the witnesses for the separate defences, may probably protract the came till Friday, sooner than which the verdict is not generally expected. " Yo ur n MARCU 19, 1820. " Every night, when the Court closes, there is a large number of peopla assembled in the Castle-yard, at the door of the Court, all anxious to have "a lock at Mr. Hunt ;" and a great many constables have been, in consequence, engaged to keep the m'th front the door. A vast concourse accompanies him, evary night, to his lodgings in Coney-street, giving him three ch7ers on his entrance. Bloorhouse, one of the defendants, brought a coach full of witnesses from Stockport. They were treated (I have it from the best autl.nritys, at several places on thair road to York, in the most uncivil manner possible. At Manchester, at the Inn where they stopped, they could not even obtain water for the horses; nor could they get a change of horses, until they arrived at Bradford, in Yorkshire. A man who was brought before his Lerdship yesterday, and com mitted for contempt of Court, in cheering Mr. Hunt when l was examining •ne r f the Lancashire Magistrates, was kindly );:erated this morning by Mr. Justice B.vyt.ev."

The people of York, on Monday, enjoyed the fes tivity of a County Election. Some rumour of oppo sition was talked of on the preceding day to one of the late Members, but the result proved it to be un founded. At an early hour, processions of Free holders in the interest of the respective Candidates, moved through the streets with bands playing and. colours tiyirg, on which were the names of the late. Members, with the usual addenda of " for ever!"— They prnceedei at eleven o'clock to the hustings, in the Castle-yard. The two Candidates, Lord Micros and Mr. STUART WORTLEY, were mounted on horse back, in full dress, attended by the principal Gentry of this great County. After the usual forms were complied with by the HIGId SLIETUFF— Lord MatoN was proposed by Sir T. Wocm, and the norninalion S seconded by Sir M. STI(ICKL AND. Mr.S. WORTLEY WAS, peoposed by Sir T.SLINGSBY, and seconded by :Ir. DENNYSON. In answer to an attack made en him by 3lr.Baines, Mr. S. Worrl.nr defended his conduct in voting for the five Bills proposed by :.!inisters during the last Session of Parliament, and in opposing a Parlia mentary Inquiry into the affair of the IGth of Au gust, at 31anchester. He assured the Meeting of the sincerity cf the alarm he foemerly expressed at the nightly driliings at Barnsley, and made some re marks on a Meeting at Halifax, where a man of the name of Mitchell was charged with being a spy, and not allowed to speak in his own defence. Lord MmTox, who was received with loud accla mations, in an admirable speech arra'gnei the con duct of his Majesty's Ministers, and challenged any man, in the page of history, to point odt a set of men who had, in so short a time, trampled down so many of the great bulwarks of the Constitu tion. Of such men it was impossible for him to speak in terms too full of contempt and indig nation—tontempt for their cowardice (not per sonal, bot political % who thought they could not govern the people of England without coercion ; and indignation for their flagrant attacks upon the lights and' liberties of the People. Ile loc kel with pride upon the part he had taken in opposing ;he late violent • and unconstitutional measures Government, except the Training Bill, which was pei haps necessary. The Noble Lord denied that the Manchester question was receiving judicial . investi gation in the adjoining ll.d1; on the contrary, it was expressly excluded from that 1'; ibunal —(llear, hear), for the conduct of the Magistracy and Yeomanry was expressly pat out of the view of the Court, and was not to.be deciiied tiFn by the Needict of guilty, or rn.t guilty, in the cause now en trial. The Noble Lord then condemned the profligate expenditure of Ministers, and their bad system of Taxation, which pressed upon the necessaries of lire. The Noble Lord said, the People were at present sheaving the Govern ment, that they had not lost the great spark of liberty which animated them—that distinguished and highly gifted man, Mr. Broughain, was now proudly placed at the head of the Poll in the County of Westmore land ; and that other independent man, Mr. Lamb ton, stands double the station of his opponent in the County of Durham.—The Noble Lord was highly applauded throughout his speech. The ceremony of chairing immediately commenced, crowds and banners and music preceded and follow ed the Members to their respective hotels, where sumptuous dinners were provided for their numerou: friends and supporters. The peaceable disposition of the inhabitants of the City of York was never more • eminently conspicuous than on this day, when the mobs of both the Members made way for, and cheered each other as they passed. A new street has been opened from the Southern end of Argyll-strcet into the grand New or Regent street ; by this means Gteat Marlborough•street is lengthened, but not to the whole of its breadth, so as to communicate with Regent-street.

The weather was very propitious, and the hourly arrivals of beauty and fashion, to vote for their favourite Candidates, from Bath and all quarters, brought this place of fashion able resort to its wonted stax of gaiety.

WILSON, M.D. IionRIELE PUNISHNIENT.—The Augusta (Georgia) Chronicle, of the Ist ult. says— " On Friday last, two negro men, named Ephraim and Sans, were executed, in conformity to their sentence, for the murder of their master, Mr. Thomas Hancock, of Edgefield Dian ia, South Carolina: Sans was burnt, and Ephraim hung, and his bead severed from his body and publicly exposed. The circum stances attending the crime for which these miserable beicfs have suffered, were of a nature so aggravated, as imperiously demanded the terrible punishment 'Which has been inflicted upon them. The burning of malefactop is z punishment only resorted to when absolute necessity demands a signal example-. It must be a horrid and appalling sight to see a human being, consigned to the flames. Let even Fancy picture the scene— the pile--the stake—the victim—the mind sickens, and sinks under the oppression of its own feelings,—what then must be the dread reality ? From some of the spectators we learn that it was• a scene which 'transfixed in breathless horror almost every one who witnessed it. As the flamcs approached his, the piercing shrieks of the unfortunate victim struck upon t'..e heart with a fearful, painful vibration; but when the devrerrinn element seized upon Ma body, all was hushed—yet the cry o f agony still thrilled in the ear, and an involuntary and sympathet'c shudder ran through the crowd. We hope that this awful d's pensation of justice may be attended with such salutary effects, as to preclude for ever the necessity of its repetition." CORN EXCHANGE, MARK -LANE, itIARCLI 22.
