W.J.CLEM'ENT, ESQ. This was an action against die defend:lilt, who is the Proprietor of the Sunday and Monday tiler ver Newspapers, for publishing in the first mentioned paper, an alleged libel, of and' concerning the plain- tiff, a broker and bailiff, of St. Martin s-le-Grand. 1 , The defendant pleaded a justification. The suppw-ed libel purported to be a report of the proceedings be fore one of the sitting Aldermen at Guildhall, on a charge against the plaintiff, at the instance of a poor man, named Bedford, for making an illeg.:l distress upon his goods, and demanding larger fees, as abro-; ker, than are allowed by the late statute of 57 Geo. 111. The gravamen of the libel appeared to be the ludicrous description given in the publication, of the plaintiff's personand demeanour before the Magistrate. —For the defendant, a considerable body of evidence was offered, completely supporting the truth and aft Curacy of the publication, so far as it went ; but, in asmuch as it appeared that there were other parts of the proceedings before the Magistrate favourable to, the plaintiff, which did not appear in the report, the CHM , JUSTICE thought the plia of justific a ti o n 1 1 not sufficient ; and .. directed the Jury accordingly.— The Jury retired for half an hour, and found a ver dict for the plaintiff—damages 1.::.).0. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. Yesterday, John Rothery was indicted for the 'killing and slaying of John Corley, on the Ist inst. at an iron -work, in Shadwell, by thrusting a red-hot iron into his body. The prisoner was overseer of the works, and found fault with the deceased for some neglect of duty. The latter had two pieces of red-hot iron, half an inch in diarneter t _ in his hand, one of si.hich the prisoner pushed against him, and it penetrated his belly, and beant two of his intestines; yet the deceased was able to have a scuffle with the prisoner afterwards, and walked home, but he died the next morning. On being apprehended, the pri soner seemed much affected wheninformed the de ceased had expired, and he acknowledged that, by accident, he might haVe thrust the red-hot iron into his body, bAt he protested he had not the slightest intention to have done so—Several witnesses gave him a most excellent character. After a charge from Mr. Baron GRAHAM, the Jury found the prisoner guilty of Manslaughter, but ear nestly recommended him to mercy, in consideration of his previous good character. Mr. Baron GRAllAM—Gentlemen, this shall not be overlooked. The numerous list which the Calendar o f every Old Bailey Session presents, is a melancholy proof not only of the rapid increase of the uttering of forged notes, particularly by the young, but also of the little attention which is paid to the means of preventing'' such a serious crime, and so great a less as public traders and others are liable to.—The following are the names of the parties who were arraigned for the crime of forgery : . George Stewart, ageti 22, an engraver; Albine Cooke, 25, a victuailer; Wm. Owen, 35, a watch-maker; John_Coates, 25, a smith ; Wm. Scott, 45, no occupation ; James Lang, 21, a carpenter; Michael Lambert, 17, a jeweller; Thomas Phillips. 18, a labourer; Wm. Quin, 16, a labourer; James Archibald, 16, a labourer; James Riley, 26, a hawker; Henry Lewis, 14, no occupation; Thomas, Martin, 20, a : - etch-maker; Henry Bucknell, 16, a labourer; Wm. Harris, 20, a tailor; Ann Far rell, 18, and Sarah Farrell, 15, two, sisters, the latter is to all appearance pregnant; Mary. Gold, 21, and Susannah Van-, 16, Fpinstm ; the last bad four indictments against her; Mar y Jones, 17, s i ;inster. 1110 above twenty were allowed to plead Guilty to the minor offence, of having the notes in their pos session knowing them to he forged. They were after wards put to the bar on the capital charge, but no e. idencc was offered against them. They are, how ever, subjected to transportation for fourteen years. We regret to say, that several of them behaved with a levity most disgraceful, laughing in the Court, and making a dreadful noise.in the bail-dock, after being taken down. , 1 The following then pleaded Not Guilty to both • the major and minor offences : Win.

MS MAJESTY'S MESSAGE. • jPl!l' The Earl of LIVERPOOL, pursuant to his mo: tion of yesterday, rose to move au Address of Con.; dolence to his Majesty on the melancholy occasion of the unexpected and tnatimely death of his illustri ous Brother, the late Duke of Kent. As he had stated yesterday, his Lordship oberved, it was usual to blend the subject matter of such an Addrqs as he was now about to move, with-that voted yes terday by their Lordships. He felt it unnecessary . to trespass upon their Lordships' time, conscious and impressed as they all must he tt ith.a due sense of the virtues and endowments of the illt;strious Prince, whose demise they all lamented.—Tne Noble Minis.; ter then moved an Address of Conlolet.ce, couched in the usual term;, to his Majesty, on the death of his Royal Brother, the late Duke of Kent - 4 which was forthwith voted by the House, 'rem. dis. The Earl of LIVERPOOL then moved an Ad• dress of Condolence to her Royal Highness the Du• chess of Kent, upon the severe loss and afilietion in the death of tier illustrious Consort. His Loro'shiß touched upon the exemplary-conduct and conjugal virtues uniformly manifested by her Royal ness, especially an the melancholy occasion of the death of bet late illustrious Consort. Lord ROLLE tcok the opportunity to express strong sense of the conjugal virtues and exemplary conduct of the illustrious Lady in question, and ad verted to some considerations, within the scope of his Lordship's own knowledge, of her Royal Highness's great tenderness and attention to her late Consort throughout the whole of his severe illness, which had so fatal a termination. The Address was voted also nen. dis. and ordered to be presented to her Royal Highness by the Mark quis Of CORNWALLIS and the Earl of Rotacirs. The Order for taking into consideration his Ma. jesty's most gracious Message of yest er d a y b e i ng moved, the Royal Document was read by the Clerk. The Earl of LIVERPOOL rose, and began by observing, that the course of proceeding adverted to on the previous day by a Noble Marquis (Lansdown), and which it was found necessary, to adopt, might, in some degree, be considered unprecedented ; but it was to be observed, that the state of things was by no means similar to that at former periods. Our si tuation, in many respects, was essentially different, and therefore a departure from previous usage might be justified. The Sovereign power was not sud denly transferred from one Sovereign to another, for the same illustrious character who was just called to the Throne had for a long time previously exercised the supreme power in Lis capacity of Regent. In this respect, therefore, there was no material change, nor any very perceptible difference. By the com mon law, Parliament must necessaiily expire with the demise of the Sovereign ; hut it having been thought expedient to guard against commotiors about a disputed succession, a Specific Act was in troduced, allowing Parliament to continue its legis lative functions for a limited period after the acres , sion of the new Monarch. Without such an Act there might, perhaps, be many difficulties in the commencement, of tlse new reign; yet, framed as that Act was, it only required the Parliament to as. semble immediately upon the demise of the Crown, without obliging it to enter upon any public.busi- . ness, and the new King might dissolve it that very in , stant if he thought proper. The Act did not pro= vide that the Parliament should continue longer than six - months after the demise of the Sovereig'n ; and though it was not usual to'dissolve it before the Civil List and some other important points of business were settled, still such a course was - always to be . gulated by the circumstances of the occasion. It•was 'entirely a question of discretion ; and, taking all things into consideration, he saw no reason Why a new Parliament should not be culled without delay, aczreeably to the recommendation in his Majesty's Niessage. This course was not proposed with a view of precipitating the discussion of any public mea sures, but rather for the purpose of affording suffi cient time for mature deliberation. The wwiu e :jues tion resolved itself into this;--what was the Ifest course to Le pursued consistently with a due regard to the public service? He should leave it to Noble Lords to say,' whether the mass of • business which must be goue through, could possibly be ac corn- Oiled within so very. short a space as that which ,was allowed before the calling of a new Parliament? The advice which bad been. given. to his Majesty, with regard to the Message which had been read, %vas dictated only by, a sense.of . public duty; - and it was because thopivith whop.); it originated felt.the 'necessity of the occasion, that they were induced to depait from established precedent.
