a* •hat of the 16th August he chewed to be unlawful, from a to the law as bid town by Mr. Serjeant Hawkins, in f'r the Crown. He would press these questions on t•:Z conlidoing their verdict:—Did dey believe the L•: ul!awful ? Did they bell ve that the witnesses fret; sworn to have frit alarm 'Aver: not ali perjured?-- ),S they believe that the several parties had made ap t fiches to :Manchester in the manner desetibed Did they believe that the 'Magistrates had ft.lt no alarm? aad did they . . . b:lieve the the vniitables had been assembLd without alarm? C.nthl any one doubt that the assembling of such multitudes lv,L1(1 f,ji to prodnee alarm and terror in the minds of the nenple of Manchester? Ile did not mean alarm and terror fur ontat mielit be done cn that dee, hut alarm growing out of the ma:le of march adopted, and. the manlier of combining seen on ;hat occasion. 'the very mystery in which that com- Liteition was involved was in itself a source of terror. He -pro t een ee l to shine that a 'large body, proceeding with every appearance of organization ; proccedieg under the command .of sun 4 leaders asJolnison, Bamford, and Doctor Healey, ( ho, front the evenness of his temper, was not the fittest person ::; the wont to be a leader). When s. eh a multitude, rtgu ierlv ore:seized, tied azting in• obedience to the orders of a se tote and unlit:own (loilanittee, were seen advancing on a town to tannery atese, be trine with them bentiers inscribed, " Li berty or Death," and such whet. inscriptions as had been pro ved to have had a place on the ensione berne with the multitude nssetnhled at Mnichester on the 16th of August ; when such a silectecle were aeon, good Goo! would any one tell him that this disp:ay could be lawful? Mr. Hun:, to chew that the sleeting was not illegal, had ioferred to the banners and ;noi ses snrs .if Orenge clubs, and other societies. But the answer to this was, that those banners and processions were connected with nur»ses that were lawful, and -Mr. Hunt might as well refer . • - to tit banners end eusigits borne by the soldiery, to prove tha• because sutnt things might be used in the army for legel aiist constitutional purpcses, it therefore followed that they etielit be lawfully resorted to, in order to give eteect to any teaiultuous meeting. The nary, he thought, would feel this, and see that such means of giving effect to his opiaipas were - not to be conceded to any demagogue, who might think proper to coatend, that " taxation without representeticrn was tyranny." It was undoubtedty true, that many Eng lish subjects had no voice in the choneieg of a It:pre sentative, but the road being open to all to qualify themselves to vote for the return of Members to Parliament, a principle like that avowed in the inscription which he had glinted was sot to be maintained in this country. Ile did no: • deny the right of the people of England to meet in large bodice for the put pew of deliberating un public affairs; but was it to be assumed that Meetings of from 60 to 80,000 men were at all times, and Under all circumstances, Et to entertain the moat abstruse ques tions of political senence? Such an assemblage as that of the 16th August, he would repeat it, was well calculated to inspire alarm, especially when seer., as tit:ANVAS, disposed to treat the Constables and all the Local Authorities with mockery and scorn. Of tnet - Meeting, two witansses had deposed, that Mr. Hunt had himself cahed it a " tremendous Meeting " It was, indeed, a tremendoies Meeting, but Meetings still more tremendous might yet be seen, if the verdict of those he had then the honour to address did not prove, tisat even sera Meetin,o3 were under the controal of the law. In such a Meeting it was trot possible for Mr. Hunt, ah ellef speaker, to be heerd by all, or by nearly all. Yet it was seen that be had rejoiced in their meeting in two-fold numbers, after the Meeting had been prohibited by the Magistrates. It seemed to be his wish to go on till they should at length meat in four-fold numbers, and finally be eble to meet any force that might lie opposed to them, face to face. Mr. Hunt had spent two hours ha examining witnesses, to prove that he had neither used the words "adjournment" nor " postronement," when speaking of the Meeting having been put off by the ene mies of the people. Who he meant to say were their enemies, he had not thought it prudent to explain. It was proved, however, by his own witnesses, that he had used both words. The Meeting at Manchester he shewed to be distinct from 'Meetings of the character of those held in Palace-yard and other places in a regular way. This was a Meeting called by a secret and unknown Committee. It was not a Meeting of the Town or District, but it was made a Meeting, as far as it could be made so, of all mankind. The broad question the Jury had first to consider was this—Was the Meeting a legal Meeting ?-- In inquiring into this, they would remember the object which he had in view whets he set out for the country to attend the Liaoning called for the 9th of August, namely, the assisting at the election of a Legislatorial Attorney, at the instance of some secret and undiscovered body. If, looking at this, and con needng it with all the other circur-stances to which he had d.:rectgd their attention, they found that an assemblage of per sons like that over which Mr. Hunt had been invited to pre side was calculated to inspire alarm, then must they decide that it was an illegal Meeting. He now came to address them on the situation in which the several defendants stood. Of the part which Mr. Hunt had acted there could be no doubt, and on that subject he need say no more. It was in proof that Johnson had been with Mr. Hunt all the week preceding the 16th of August, and two witnesses had proved him (Johnson) to have used language respecting the Meeting of the 16th of August, which went deeply to implicate him in the conspiracy. He then went over the evidence given by the witnesses Willie and Slater, on the subject of his (Johnson's) being returned to Parliament, and on the subject of the intended Meeting, and the measures said to have been in progress against the House of Commons. The language then used induced Willie, who had known nothing of him (Johnson) before.' to say, that if Nadin had been present he would have taken him up. To contradict this man, a butcher and a builder had been brought from Man chester to swear, that, front certain circumstances, they would not believe him upon his oath. The evidence of that witness was, however, in the main, unshaken, and went to shew that Johnson was deeply implicated in the conspiracy. The conduct of Mourhouse, in inviting people to attend the projected Meet ing, had proved him one of the conspirators ; while Wild and Jones, in directing the people to lock their arms, had made it clear that they also were parties to the conspiracy. Dr. Hea ley had set out with declaring, in his defence, that " where there was no law there could be no transgression." It might be well for the Doctor if there were indeed no law on such subjects; if there were no law to prevent demagogues from marching at the head of numerous bodies of men, carrying what ensigns and ban ners they thought proper, and saying to the people so called out what they pleased. The Doctor had, probably, coetrihuted something to that flag which had been produced, for which he had manifested what seemed very like a parental affection. He had brought with him a trod:' of that flee, for fear the prosecu tors should be so base as not to produce the original, which, by the bye, Mr. Hunt had said it was rot in their power to do. He had, however, brought forward the fieg when the model WAs . produced, and had models been exhibited of the caps of liberty, he, it: the same way, would hove brought forward the real ones. The cap of liberty, since the period of the French Re voietior, when so much fury and mischief had been hatched under it, was no loneem the symbol of freedom, but the ensign of revolution, and the boast of licentiousness. Dr. liaaiey, is having assisted to marshal the people under such ban errs, had :nearly proved himself to be implicated in the conspi racy. Knight was proved to have been in the carriage with Hunt at the Meeting, though he escaped at the time. For Saxton, as it appeared that he; had only attended the Meeting as a Re porter to a Newspaper, he would have them dism:es his case ftenn their consideration altogether. Having thus stated this cent, he thought there could be no doubt that a conspiracy heti existed, and, if they found that the Meeting of the 16th of Auge.st was an unlawful Meeting, (as surely he thought they w sell`, he would be entitled to a verdict. For himself, he felt p .--fectiy at his ease, and had no fears for the consequences o these proceedings, unless, indeed, it should once e o forth t.) the world, on the authority of a British Jury, that Meetings Ike that of the 16th of August, were to be regarded as lawful. Ile reverenced public liberty, and it was because lee revs'. reneed it, that he stow called for that verdict which he con tendel the Jury would be justified in giving against the present defendants. He desired this, that licentiousness and violence etioht be repressed; lest from the abuse of public liberty the reale of England, at no distant oerioe, should resemble the Romans, as described by their eldest historian, at the time cf th - ..• death of Augustus, when they considered it safer to submit t • deep:inn, than to go back to that licentiousness which h:ld lensn intendant on liberty. The Jury would render a most (e -a•;':1:1 service to liherty, by giving their verdict against those VI., hod abused it—by ',hewing that the laws were sufficient to I those evils which might arise under our free Constitn -617-1:1i 1) . : proving to the disaffected, that the laws were not to t:-W.l").7et On with impunity. inn: (lee being now closed on both sides, Mr. Justice 14, eeee proteodt i to address the Jury, and at a quarter befeee orioht &dock nod only gone through the evidence as fee as Mr. 11altoare He then observed to the Jury, that he tha . .et; the,. h:til gore as far as they could for the night, and the Corn wa; accordingly-adjourned till nine .o'clock en Londay niornirg.— We 01411 give that part of the Learned Judge's charge deli , vexed un Saturday, to-morrow.] THE EVENING STAR LON DON.

The Paris Paperi of Thursday and Friday have arrived this forenoon. The Moniteur contains a Royal Ordinance con voking the Electoral Colleges of Charente Inferieure, Seine Info ieure, L'lscre, and Vaucluse, to meet and fill up the vacancies in the representation of these Departments. The Chamber of Deputies were occupied on Wed nesday and Thursday with the continued . Debate on the Project of Law respecting the Journals. It was still farther adjourned till Friday. The additional ace, - unts from Spain we are obliged, for want of room, to compress within a few words. The Councils of Castile, of the Indies, of Orders, and of Finances, have been suppressed and superseded by the re-establishment of the Supreme Tribunal of Justice, instituted by Article 259 of the Constitution. Count VALPARAISO, a decided Constitutionalist, has been named Captain-General of the Body Guards, in the room of the Count D'ALAcoN, fltid to Va lencia. On the 12th, the populace and the soldiery replaced the Pillar of the Constitution on the Major's Place of Madrid. No accounts had, on the 14th, been received from Cadiz ; indeed, the accounts of the Revolution at Madrid could not have reached there till the 11th. °TONNE'. is in command of the line of communication between the two places, and intercepts all correspondence. French .5 per Cents. Thursday, 74 fr. 70 c. The Clergyman of the Parish in Ross-shire, in which the late unhappy disturbances took place, has, by his persuasive influence alone, accomplished what the Sheriff, the Ross-shire Staff, and a powerful posse of Gentlemen and Constables, were unable to effect. " Had I been apprised," he says in a letter to the Editor of the Inverness Courier, " of what was to be done, I would have taken measures to prevent the necessity of the Sheriff or any armed force appearing among us at all ; but I knew it not till the evening before, and to go to my people at the head of an armed force, is what I would never do." The Reverend Gentleman convened them all (the tenants) at Colrain, on the Bth current, and, after pointing out the madness and inutility of such vio lence, and the destructive consequences that must inevitably ensue, he prevailed upon every man of them to go down to Ardgay Inn, to receive their summonses of removing, which they did on the 14th, when the Sheriff's-officer met them from Tain.— Many were prevented by sickness from coming.— The Sheriff's-officer went to their houses and exe cuted their summonses, and returned at night to Ardgay, after experiencing the greatest hospitality. The Reverend Gentleman seems well entitled, after this, to say, " There is no occasion for a body of 300 men and three field-pieces to come among us. I shall go bound for the peace of the Parish, and that no ob struction shall be given to the execution of the laWs." While thus enforcing nn his people the necessity of submission to the laws, this worthy Minister of peace, makes at the same time this feeling appeal on their behalf: " Of all the human race." he says, " there is not a more grateful or affectionate being than the High lander, to the man who feels for his case, and sym pathizes with him; but, alas! few of the present day know his value ; if they aia, the system of extermi nation would not continue. I trust Mr. Mutisto will still avert, from the first days of his possession of the estate, so dreadful a judgment as the expulsion of nearly 600 persons, able and willing to pay their rents, who are not one penny in arrear, and who have hitherto paid a higher rent than the tacksman who is to succeed them." Of these six hundred souls there are more than 100 bed-ridden and aged persons, whose locks have grown hoary on the soil, under the fostering kindness of their late excellent landlord, Sir HEcToR Mtniao, and whom no earthly power can remove till death come to their relief. Yesterday, we received Dutch and Flemish Papers to a late date; and this morning, several files of Ger man Papers to the 20th, but none of them present any intelligence worthy of the least notice. Saturday morning, the Dukes of Yonx and CLA RENCE, and Prince LEOPOLD. visited the KING at his Palace, in Pall-mall. Soon after one o'clock, his MA • JE ;TY left his Palace travelling carriage, escorted by a party of Light Horse (Lancers), for Brighton.— The KING proceeded through St. James's Park, Pim lico, along Vauxhall Bridge, &c. The Earl of LlArmwoon, we are concerned to state, is seriously indisposed, at his house in Flarewood place. On Friday evening last, after dinner, his Lordship being alone in his room, was suddenly over come, in such a manner that he had scarcely the power of ringing his bell, which, however, he ef fected, and brought to his assistance his servant in waiting, who found his Lordship almost in a lifeless state; medical assistance being immediately called in, his Lordship was bled, and put to bed. His Lord ship continues seriously indisposed. 1 1 7, `. are happy to state that there is co tryth in the reported deal! o! Lard Di':.nas.

' This mailing, the Commission appointed to pre- 1 side at the Trials of Arthur Thistlewood and others, charged with High Treason, Murder, and other cfl fences, assembled at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell Green. At ten o'clock, Chief Justices ABBOTT and DALLAS took their seats, together with FaANcas CONST, Esq. and others of the Commission. . . His MAJESTY'S Commission having been, read, tl►e following Gentlemen were sworn ofthe G rand Inquest: Job !talkls, Esq. (Foreman.) John Stock, Esq. Thomas Melroid, Esq. Robert Batson, Esq.

Young, Esq. Richard Meycock, Esq. Robert Jennings, Esq. Joseph Taylor,- Esq. John Johnson, Esq. Frederick Dowse, Esq. 'J. W. Horsely, Esq. William Binnings, Esq. Henry Taylor, Esq. The Chief Justice (ABBOTT) addressed them at considerable length ; and after reading the Act passed in the reign of King Edward 111. for the punishment of High- Treason, stated, that it was not High Treason to conspire to assassinate the Mi nisters of the King, unless, by that act, some ulte rior overt act was intended, which, in its conse quences, would deprive the Sovereign of his life or his Thror,e. The persons accused were also charged with Murder ; and it did not follow, that those who might be guilty of High Treason, should, because they hahl•ened to be present, be also .guilty of murder. They would use discrimination in that part of the charge, and Make the proper distinction. They would have the testimony of an accomplice, which, although necessary (ind, indeed, if such evidence was not received, offences of this sort would not be discovered), they would receive with caution. The Learned Judge concluded a long and able charge, by conjuring them to give the matters brought before them their most grave and deliberate consideration. The Gentlemen withdrew to find the Bills. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHECTIER, and several other persons of distinction, were is Court. GENERAL ELECTION. MIDDLESEX ELECTION.—EI GUTH DAY.

The populace, however, conducted themselves in a very orderly way, doing no more than indulging themselves in occasional exulta tion at the increasing majority of their f-tvourite . Candidates. About half-past two o'clock Sir Francis made his appearance on the hustings, and was received with loud acclamations. The worthy Baronet proceeded to the place of polling, and gave a plumper for Mr. Hobhouse. At three o'clock the Poll finally closed ; the numbers were, Burdett, 5327 I Hobhouse, 4932 I Lamb, 4436 The High Bailiff soon after appeared on the hustings, and declared the election to have terminated in favour of Sir Francis Burdett an/ John Cam Hobhouse, Esq. Sir F. BURDETT then stepped forward, and was received with the most enthusiastic applause. It might be expected he should say something of himself, and his trial.at Leicester; but on that topic he should say little. Ile believed there was still so , much left to be decided by other tribunals, that he should not ultimately suffer from the verdict obtained against him; but let the result be what it might, he should never regret having stood' forward on the part of his fellow-subjects, whom he considered as oppressed. Those who went to the wars must expect sears ; 1 but scars were not di.honourable, and, whatever shotild become of the verdict entertained at Iris trial, he should always 'consi der the verdict of his countrymen given in his favce:r to-day, as the most hunourahle which could have been awarded him.— (Applause.) Mr. HOSHOUSE was received with load applause, and thanked the electors for the high distinction they had conferred upon him. The two successful Candidates then retired from the hustings, amidst the cheers of the populace, which soon after quietly dispersed. . . • . . Mr. lamb did not appear on the hustings :It all; tke place from whence he had usually addressed the electors was hccu pied by Mr. Boyce Cumbe, the Chairman of his Committee.

The person apprehended at Portsmouth, on Thurs day night, on suspicion of being concerned in the atrocious murder of Mr.Pa RK ER and his housekeeper. bad been loitering about the town nearly the vhole of the winter, and had been to France, whence he returned a short time before the murder. He was then absent a few days, and arrived on the Satarday evening by the Rocket, day-coach, the muz.!er being committed on the preceding Friday evening. li.! is a good-looking man; he wore three vky.istcliat:, I ,:ur coats, and spectacles, which he seems to .;tv- . ..had no need of, but supposed, with the . addititnial to be for the purpose of disguise; he als..; wo:e foraging fur cap, with a gold band.

M. P. some new table spoons without marks. He had sixteen Bank of 'England note:,. mostly dated Ist and 2d March, cue much burnt, and. marked on the back " Mr. Bohn and Mrs. Bedfprd, Feb. 21, I 20 ;" most of them marked " Mrs. Nesbitt." —ln his trunk was a pair of nankeen trowEers, net - worn since they were washed, but on one side of the waistband a considenible hole is burnt, and appa rently not long done—certainly since they were washed. A girl of the town, with whom he coha bited, was taken up Saturday morning, who states that he would not sleep by himself, and being very restless when with her, she asked him the reason; when, enjoining her to secrecy, he said that he had committed murder—that he had killed two men and one woman. The prisoner is very ill from the blows a_nd hurts he has received. It seems the small part t)f his back is much hurt ; as, when struggling with the officers,they fell over a form, and he was under. He is rather sullen, not at all inclined to converse.— Three men are with him night and day. CO R w-Excli 1. 07, !JAR blAn en 27.—A considerable q u an tify of Whe.tt all!
