COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. The Shepherd's Coleitdarosith Pillage Stories, and other Poems; by JOHN CLAIN: L'tndon, J. TAILOR, 1827. Eight or nine years have elapsed since the first pub lication of Clare, the Northamptonshire Peasant, and it cannot fail of proving highly gratifying to his early Mends and patrons, to find that his rural Muse is still capable of producing fruits and flowers, worthy the continuance of their fostering care. The present volortse is equal, if not superior, to any of the former prods*. tinns of its amiable and modest Author. It has all bis characteristic simplicity and faithful delineation of es- ternal nature, with the same excellent feeling of moral Worth and sensibility. Poets are, proverbially careless and deficient in matters of worldly wisdom ; but Clare, we believe, has ever preserved himself unspotted from the world, and has wisely blended the ;student with the poetical. Man was not made for versifying alone, and In these days of universal scribbling, genius has lost much of its ancient dispensing power, and of the awe and reverence with which it was once accompanied. It would be ab.utd and paradoxical, however, tb infer orn this, that true genius has lost any portion of its influence on the public mind, or that mankind have become indifferent to the merits of their best benefac. tors. We still hail with pride and satisfaction every indication of native talent, but we have become more wise and discriminating in our praise, and reqUire that the conduct of the man shall not belie the strains of the Poet. To those who, like prior Dermody, believe that genius can shelter its unworthy possessors from the contempt of the world, we may say with a living Poet, • The song is 'saved, but the Bard is lest.' The one talent which they prized so highly, becomes In their hands a curse, rather than a blessing ; and, in them, literature is at once degraded and despised. The strains with which Clare has here solaced his leisure hours, amidst his native fens and marshes, (no very apt abode for the Muses) are full of delightful images of rural life and scenery. Halls and glens are strangers to the village of Halpstone and its neighbour hood, and, therefore, are not to be found in the calen dar of our Poet. He has painted only what he has known or seen ; but the commonest objects of nature are to the Poet full of beauty and romance. Thus, Clue, in one of the shorter pieces of the volume before us, says, finely of himself, and of his Muse, springs come not as they yearly come, To low and vulgar eyes, With here and there* Sewer in bloom, Green trees and brighter skies : Thy fancies Busied my boyish sight, And gilt its earlier hours ; And Spring came *rapt in beauty's light, An Angel dropping flowers, The following is of a higher mood : • LIVE, DEATH, AND ETERNITY. A shadow moving by one's side, That would a substance seem,—• - That is, yet is nor,—though descried— Like skip beneath the stream s - A tree that's ever in the bloom, Whose fruit is nevtr rife; A wish for joys that never come, Such see the hopes of Life ! A dark, inevitable night, A blank that will remain: A waiting for the morning light, Where waiting is in vain; A guiph, where pathway never led To shew the depth beneath; A thing we know not, yet we dread,— ' That dreaded thing is Death! The vaulted void of purple sky That every where extends, That stretches Irons the dazzled eye In space that never ends; A morning whose uprisen sum No setting e'er shall see; A day that comes without a nottn r . Such is Eternity ! tet Clare write always thus, and, in the words of Dr. Johnson, it will be vain to praise, and useless to blame h.m. The first tat on personal property in England was levied by 1:11MIT 11. whose reign began in 1154, which amounted to twopence in the pound on the amount of every individual's net effects, after deducting the debts owing, to be verified on oath ; and one penny in the pound for the four following years. This tax W 33 afterwards raised to ow-tenth part of all personal property, as in 1811 intelligence had been received that Jerusalem had been taken by the Sultan of Egypt. On this occasion the English are said to have paid above 70.000 i. and the resident Jews ahaut 60,0001. to gether about 2,000,0001. sterling of modem money. - . His late MAJESTY honoured The Birih-day several times ssith a command. As be left the Theatre after his fist seeing W, the King was pleased to observe to Mr. Harris, that the ship mentioned as having been carved by the Captain on the doer of the disputed garden, ought to be introduced to the eye of the audience; this was afterwards dune, accompanied by ajust cons. pliment to our Navy, which obtained three rounds of applause ; mut on his Majesty's. 'se xt visit,i he smiled 'at the ship, pointed it Am to the Queen, and was the first to cominence, in a most decided rnanrer, the tokens of general approbation which again and again followed the speech alluding to is. It was on one of these visits that while Mr. Harris was lighting his Majesty from his box, the Xing, not perceiving some steps in the lobby before him, had nearly fallen i but quickly recovering himself, said laughingly to the alarmed proprietor, "Slippery times, Harris: slippery times; we must look to our feet." The period when this happened made the remark peculiarly n propos ; a white cloth was, on subsequent occasions laid on the steps to prevent a recurrence of the accident.—Dibdin's RIOT AT BODMIN sennight the psi. loners in Bodmin prison, sentenced to hard hbour, refused to go upon the tread-mill,and declared they were resolved to resist every attempt to compel them to resume their labour. Two of the visiting Ma gistrates were sent for, and on their arrival, they remonstrated with the rioters, but in vain ; they tore up the railing that was round the wheel, and arming themselves, prepared fur re‘i,tance. Finding every other means unavailing, the Staff of the Cornwall Militia were called together, and being armed and provided with ammuni tion, were drawn up in the outer yard of the prison. As soon as their arrival was announced to the rioters, they gave three cheers, shooting" Death, or victory !" The Magistrates again attempted to remonstrate with them, but they " one and all" declared they were resolved to repel force by force. The Militia men were then directed to enter the inner yard, and as the first file were about to past the gate, some of the must daring of the rioters nude an attempt to wrest the ir muskets front them. This attack was very spiritedly and successfully feasted without firing, and the rioters retreated, some of them having been knocked down by the but-end of the soldiers' firelocks, and live of the most refractory being secured, and lodged In separate tells, the others then submit. ted. ifowden, who was convicted at the late Truro Sessions of a 'violent assault on the constables of Camborste, being the ringleader, was ordered by the klagistrates to ascend the wheel, which be po sitively refuted to do. The Magistrates finding it absolutely tie. cessary to shew the prisoners that they were resolved to enforce obedience, and to cotrect a notion they appeared to have entertained that the Magistrates could not inflict corporal punishment on them, orders were given to flog Sowden, which were instantly carried into effect, in a manner that will for name time afford bins a feeling proof of his error. The other rioters, who beheld the punishment of their loader, - were tber. ordered to ascend the wheel, under a pain of a similar hiiiiiction, when they wisely chose the lesser evil, and re armed the oboe:Joss operation, and promised obedience. Amongst -other tbi3s,the rioters required-to be ptavidedwith a clean sitirtdaily. ADDIGESII me MAJESTY ON THE LATE CHANGES IN THE ADMINISTRATION. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held in pursuance of a Requisition numerously signed, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of addressing his Majesty on the recent changes in the Administration. The Court was very much crowded. The LORD MAYOR hating read the Requisition, Mr. F4VILL rose to propose a dutiful and loyal Ad dress to his Majesty for his late conduct. He was not anxious to compromise any of those feelings that had actuated that Assembly for a number of years ; but lie thought in presenting an Address to his Majesty upon the present occasion, not one particle of those manly, honest, au& bold feelinga, would in the slightest degree be violated. He reflected with great pleasure on the magnanimous conduct of the Sovereign- upon the late occasion, in displaying so much firmness in the forma tion of his Cabinet, but- it was what he expected front a King who said " that the Crown was held but in trust for the peopte"—.(Hear, hear). He thought it a good sign, that the present Ministry threw themselves upon the country. Mr. Favell then alluded to the strange coincidence of the simutltaneous resignation of the late 'Cabinet Ministers. He admitted that men were not to be forced into any situation, however high, but he at the same time was of opinion, that no man, hoe vet great, should attempt to dictate to the Sovereign in the exercise of his just prerogative. Mr. Favell concluded by proposing that an Address be presented to the King. Mr. TICKNIR seconded the Resolution. Mr. Can ning, it seas, he said, who broke up the Holy Alliance —he called into existence the New World of South America—it was through his means, that a little band of Britons had gone forth to fight under the banners of- Coneitutional Liberty, which ten times iii numbs might oppose without effect. Mr. Ticknei then al:uded to the advantages likely to arise to this country front the principles of free trade, advocated by Messrs. Can ning, Robinson, and fluski.son. The loss sustained by the country is consequence of the resignation of Mr. Peel was great,, but lie hoped, that although he had declined office, he would continue his invaluable ter vices. —(Great applause.) Upon the question Iseing put, Mr. STEVENS said, he should take up a fel, moments of their time in doing an ay with the impression'which the last speaker seemed to have on the assembly, rela tive to Mr Canning. This Gentleman had said that Mr. Canning did this and did that—that he had saved us from the Holy Alliance; that' he called the New World into existence. But he 'has not told us, as' he might have done, that George Canning. was the, enemy of Parliamentary Reform—(Hop, Hear )-1 that he was the enemy of civil and religious liberty.' (Hear, hear, followed by lou I cries of Yes, yes—No, no.)—The proposer had said that they ought to sup-' port the new Goveinment for what they had not done,' and the seconders followed in the same strain.—Mr., Stevens alluded to the opinion, supposed to have been entertained by his late Majeity on the 'subject ,o( Ca." thane claims. Mr. FAVELI. 'rose Worder. The LORD MAYuR dtcided That Mr. &evens was in order. a- • Mr. STEVENS continued, arnd ssid. that if the Catholic claims were acceded to, the Dissenters would' be for gotten. He concluded by saying that be conaidered the Address pre•iraiu e. Mr. TAYLOR contended, that the coalition formed by the Whigs with isli. Canning, in order to Inuit an Administration, wa. pe fectly cortect. Alderman YES AEL SS ci.nsideied the change in die Administration for the good • of the country. . Aldernism Tnostes•sw said, that although he had nr, objection to support an Address to his Majesty, which confined itself exclusively to an expression of satisfaction, in consequ:nce of his having ex reised his just preroga tive, but if it went to eu!ogi-e the preseut Administra. lion, he, for one, would object to it. Mr. Alderman Witco said; that if he thought such an Address of congratulation to the King as that pro posed could be gratifying to his Majesty ; if he thought that it would be satistattory even to thcAdministiatio.r, he should give his entire. support to the motion—(hear) —but it could not be satisfactory to his Majesty. He wished to caution the Court, as Protestants, against committing themselves to the support of a Minister who had declared the attainment of Catholic Eman cipation to be the object nearest to his heart (Hear, hear, hear). He would say waling about the enlightened condition in which we were. lie was not for calling our ancestors, to whom we were in debted for our present state of prosperity, fools. He was not for giving up the advantages of the reformed lidigion which they had shed their blood so freely to advance. He was not for supporting an Administra tion inclined to do this—an Administration which, by an unfortunate alliance with certain persona, bad ren dered rit probable that it would be as little perm inent as that formed of All the Talents. He should, there fore, move the previous question. The motion was seconded by Mr. Burraftsioarn. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN spoke at great l length in support of the motion. The question was, whether the people would come lot ward and support the exercise of the pterogatise of the Crown against the influence of art Aristocracy of 116roughmongers? ~."'• Mr. Deputy SAUNDERS called the attention of the Coact to the circumstance, that the Address was pro posed by the same man IA ho led them to Biandenburgh House—c(Cries of Order). He contended that an Ad dress from such parties could not be agreeable to his Islajesty. Then again he was not for praising a change which would endanger the Protestant Fabric, under which we had enjoyed so much liberty. ' Let the Couit remember that the person at the head of the Adminis tration had been at work, like a battering r.im, to over throw the glorious Protestant Edifice—(Laughte!).— Were they then to bow down and idolise su,:h a maw? No! he hoped not—(Much laughter). Mt. J. W. HALL contended.', that the. Address should • embody an expression of the intention of the Court to support the new Ministry—(Cries of No, no). Mr. FAvrtu. replied, and a shew of hands was taken, when the numbers appearing nearly equal, though the Lord Mayor declared the original *mil:id - curia, a division took 14 ice.

Mr. HEALD appeared to skew cause against an in junction which had been obtained against Mr. Cull, who was appointed the receiver of a brewery and other pro perty devised by the will of Mr. Deacon, and sulljnt to certain charges. The late L •rd Chancellor hld laid down a rule, on which lie always acted, that if a case should be made out to the Comt e by which it a l -- peared that any great injury was likely to ensue from the conduct of parties, the extraordinary powers of the Court should be exercised for the purpose of restraining the evil apprehended. The coEseqwnce was, that in junctions were more frequently graved by his Lordship than the other Judges in equity: He (Mr. Heald) thought the practice a useful one, but it waioccasionally subject to abuse; and Mr. Cull had sustained great in jury in his reputation by a statement in the public newspapers 4 the grounds on which this injunction had been granted against him, as they appeared' in the affiv davits of the parties who had applied against him.— He was now teady to rebut all those charges; and to prove that they had been wrongfully brought against him. Mr. Heald was procee.liag -visits his statement, • • , when— The LORD Clmscsuma said, he WAS obliges) to rise, having to attend the Council at wh;ch the llecoidet's Report was to be la;d before his Majesty. the fur ther argument of Counsel was postponed.

The Mitnurav thuntaar.--My Lord, on the part of the defend. ant, I can have no hesitation in doing so, and in distinctly retracting the slander passed upon the plaintiff, but not intentionally, by my client, who could have no malice towards him ; indeed, at the trial, although there were several pleas of justification, I felt satisfied that none of them could be supported by evidence, and I therefore with drew them ; that was a retraction of the imputation against the plaintiff at that time, and I have no grounds or disposition to repeat any slander upon that Gentleman now, but on the cobtrary, to con firm the retraction then nude, which I do. 111 r Gnawer-11y client, then. agrees at once to the " stet pro. eessua," l'artracias--Tbat is a proper end-of the ease.

The point at the t•ial turned tipim the meaning of "'dales of cotton," the i l defendant Contending that those words did not meals compressed bales; but. the Jury being of a contrary , opinion, found a verdict for the plaintiff. A rule for a new trial had been obtained, on the ground that the plaintiff was precluded from relying upon the general meaning of the word " bales," by the terms of, the chatter-party, which stated it to mean " bags;" but on :hewing cause against the rule, it appeared by the affidavits lot the plaintiff, that the word "bag" was in. troduced by the broker after the execution of the char• ter-party, at the request of the defendant, without the consent of the plaintiff, who remonstrated against it, and said he should expect the contract to be fulfilled according to the charter-party as it originally stood. Lord TENTERDEN.—Ihe rule for a new trial must be discharged. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Ithr 2s. The LORD Cum JUSTICE sat at Nisi Prins this morning for a rhott time, and di,posed of several un• defended actions; shortly after ten o'clock,he was joined by the other Judges, and the Court sat in bunco.

It is ordered, that from and alter the last day of this term, the Warden of this prison shalt cause its gates to be closed at ten o'Llock at night until Michaelmas, and at nine o'clock Irom Michaelmas to Lady-day, and again at ten o'clock from Lady-day to Michaelmas. It is also further ordered, that no person shall be admitted into the said prison during the last hour previous to the gates being closed, unless it be a new priso ier, or in case of an emergency, and then under the sanction of the War Jen.
