WATSON STILL IN PRISON.-A ge nerous ant: feeling Public are invited to take into their kind consideratioo, the peculiarly unhappy situation of the above Gentleman, who, with the greatest disinterestedness (at the risk of his life), ventured to advocate the cause of the poor and suffer- tog people. Whatever difference of opinion may be entertained respecting the propriety or impropriety of his &torso, no person, Who knows the benevolence of his disposition, will charge upon him sinister or selfish motives. With a generous Public it will' be enough to know, that an amiable family is in the greatest dis tress, in consequence of his imprisonment, for a debt which ought to be paid by the Reformers. Having been called upon to wit ness the accumulated misery of his children, who are absolutely starving for want of proper nourishment; and all hopes cut off, for the Present, of their receiving the least aid from Dr. Watson him self; and, also, as the Public may not have been fully aware of the real situation of this most unfortunate family, I venture to solicit the benevolent assistance of a kind and feeling Public, to rescue his helpless Children and amiable Wife from utter ruin. I beg to say, that lam not a Radical, nor ever acceded to the political opinions of the Doctor ; but, from his having pro fessionally attended tiny family for some years past, I know him to be deserving of a better fate, both. as it respects his moral, psectitude and medical abilities. I would willingly offer to re ceive any Doliationau behalf of his Family, but pre4ume to re commend, es a preferable mode, that all Subsertptions be sent direct to Mrs. Wa.esox, Three Kings-court, Fleet-street. With the greatest deference, I am, the Public's most obedient humble Servant, 117, High Holborn, Jan. 6, 1820. • J. CA RSTAT RS. LIST H.

THE LONDON MA GAZINE.—SECOND EDITION. MESSRS. BALDWIN, CRADOCK, and JOY did not, at first, think it necessary to notice publicly a charge which has been brought against them—very wantonly, at least, to use no harsher word—of having unduly taken the Title of their New Periodical Work from the Prospectus of a contem porary Magazine. Some of their Friends, however, have sug gested, that respect for the Public requires them, once for all, to contradict what, they flatter themselves, their previous repots. tion bad sufficiently prevented from being believed. They can prove incontrovertibly that their present enterprise, including its Title, as it now stands, and all its ether arrangements, was fixed so long ago as the Spring of 1819. When, on the 19th of Novem ber, Messrs. Bornstein, CRADOCK, and Joy first saw the announce ment of the Work bearing a similar name, they immediately sent to iti Publishers a printed copy of their Prospectus, which bad been circulated several Weeks before. The coincidence is unpleasant: en their part it is accidental. If, however, there be any superior claim to the Title assumed, perhaps it will be con sidered to belong to that House whose predecessors carried on Tux Limnos Mossosiva for half a Century. L-a circumstance, in fact, which originally suggested the Continuation of the Name. PRACTICAL RELIGIOUS EDUCATION.

Yesterday, a Meeting of the Proprietors of this Establishment was held, " for the purpose of consi dering a proposition to be made, agreeably to the notice tabled at the General Court, on the 22d of September last to place in their Court-room a Statue of the late Right Honourable Warren Hastings, as a last testimony of approbation of the long, zealots, and successful services rendered, to the East Iniia I Company by that distinguished characters and also for the purpose of taking into consideration, an unani mous Resolution of the Court of Directors, of this day's date, recommending the Court of Proprietors to authorise the Court of Directors, to offer to his Majesty, to raise and maintain, at the expense of the Company, a Corps of Volunteer Infantry, from amongst the persons in the Company's employ ; and if his Majesty shall accept such offer, then to autho rise the Court of Directors to defray the expense of the Corps so to be raised, out of the Funds of the Company ; and if necessary, to apply for an Act of Parliament to sanction the approbation of a sufficient part thereof for that purpose.' At twelve o'clock the Chairman (C. MARJORI. BANKS, Esq.) took the Chair. The Minutes of the last Court having been read, The CHAIRMAN acquainted the Court, that the grant of 75,000 rupees to Mr. Wilkinson, with inte rest thereon, at the rate of six per cent. from 1816, up to the period of payment, had been confirmed.-- He also acquainted the Court, that they were called together, pursuant to adjournment, for the 'purpose of considering a prryosttion of the Court of Direc tors, to place in their Court-room the Statue of the Right Honourable Warren Hastings, as a last testi mony of approbation of the long, faithful, and zea lous services of that Gentleman. Mr. Hums asked, whether the Law Officers of the Company had been consulted as to the legality of the vote of a grant to Sir G. Barlow ? The CHAIRMAN replied, that the Court of Direc . tors did not feel it necessary to take any such opi nion. If any of the Proprietors thought such an opinion necessary, they ought to have signified a 4 wisn to that effect. The motion relative to the Statue of Warren Hast ings having been read, . The CHAIRMAN hoped, that In proposing this mo tion to the Court, be would be indulged in makPng a few observations. The question now before them involved the character and conduct of an eminent and faithful servant of the East India Company. It was not for him to eulogise the conduct of that great man, while he ful fi lled the arduous chides which had devolved upon him. The notoriety of the conduct of Warren Hastings, in England, in India, end par ticularly the knowledge which the Proprietors of India Stock had of his talents, and his zealous and successful efforts to promote their interests, left him little to say. On these points, therefore, he would leave every thing to the opinion of the Court itself, Ronfident that they would duly estimate those efforts& But he wished to call the attention of the Court to Mr. Hastings's very great length of service. It *as now 70 years since Mr. Hastings first entered into the service of the East India Company. He entered it at an early age, and had, solely by his own exer tions, travelled from the most humble to the highest offices in that service. But whatever situation he filled, he was always found exerting his undivided efforts, in support of the best interests of the Esta blishment. During a considerable portion of Mr& Hastings's Administration, he bad many difficulties to contend with. Factions, both abroad and at home, were opposed to him. Added to this, he bad Euro pean Armies, European Settlements, and 'Enropean Fleets to contend with. On his return to England, however, after having successfully exerted himself to preserve our Indian Posses.lions, after having se cured the esteem and confidence of the Compiiny— . what was his reception? He was met by an Im peachment, containing 22 Articles! It was not his (the Chairman's) wish to question the wisdom of Par liament, but he would take leave to say, that its pro ceedings were on that occasion, contrary to the sfsieit and wisdom of English law, and opposed to the prac tice of the Constitution. Mr. Hastings, howeier ; triumphantly vindicated himself against the charges urged against him. Not long since that great NMI, when a renewal of the Company's Charter was about to take place, and when a different Code of Laws for India was contemplated, was examined at the B ar o f both Houses of Parliament, as to the actual state of India. On that occasion, though advanced in years ; ,he acquitted himself so ably, that, on l eav i ng t h e l Bar, he was greeted by the cheers of t h e H ouse . — ' On the services of Mr. Hastings he would rest his case; and he hoped most sincerely, that their vote upon that occasion would be unanimous. If he could call upon the departed, if he could bring forward the heroes and statesmen whose statues adorned their Court, he doubted not but their unanimous voice , would be ill . favour of the motion ; and he felt confi dent that no one would be more forward on the oc casion than the great man whose statue was. on his • left (the Marquis Cornwallis)—(Applause). Mr. Ilaamson (the Deputy Chairman) seco n d e d the motion. He did not theta it necessary to add to the able address which they hadjgst heard. When be entered the Court that morning; be did not think' 1 1/1 1) ' ! i { i 7 . 1. (
