" — Mr. GURNEY addressed the Jury in behalf of the defendant, and called witnesses to prove the plaintiff did not take any sketch himself during his visit with the' defendant to Jerash. On that occasion he wrote for the defendant, and fiom the defendant's dictation.— On one occasion be was s-en to copy from a little boot, which proved to be the narrative of the jour. bey which Mr. 'hues - had made to Jerash. It was admitted that he could not take sketches. The , witnesses who proved the above facts, were a Portuguese named Antonio de Costa, and a Mahometan reneged°, named Mahomet, who having beconie a Turk, had again turned Christian, and was going to Italy, his motive country. Mr. John Barry said he travelled in Palestine. He ♦iuted the reins of the city of Jerash ; he was there two days, and bad an opportunity to make a plan of the place by measurement; he produced the plan he made, and believed it to be accurate: The witness had ex amined Mr. Buckingham's and Mr. Banker's plan ; they were like each other. Mr. Buckingham's plan was in parts inaccurate—(looked at the plan published by Mr. Buckingham)—the walls in that plan were circular. The walls of the ruined city, so far as his observation went, were straight or angular. In Mr. Buckingham's plan there were military gardens. The witness knew of none: Ic was merely an angle of the wall. Mr. Buckingham and Mr. Bankes' plan laid down - two gates to the city. In fact, there were tour. There were four openings in the wall. Two towers appeared in Mr. Bankes's plan on the tight of the upper line. In the ruins there were no towers at the angle described in the plan. There were other towers on the ruins which were not laid down in the plan. There were also pillars which did not appear in the plans of Mr. Buckingham and Mr. Bankes. The theatre which was described to bear west bore north north-west. Thedrawing of the theatre in Mr. Buckingham's plan was incorrect. Mr. Buckingham's plans were generally incorrect. His plans contained most of the inaccuracies found in Mr. Bankes's plan. The witness was an architect. He knew the Latin language, and something of Greek. Mr. Barry, Who travelled to Palestine, Captain Irby, Captain Mangles, and Colonel Leek, were also examined respecting the plans of the city of Jerash. They had all seen the ruins, and desFribed variations and inaccu racies in Mr. BuckinghPnes plan. _ _ _ Mr. Arrowamith being called again, said, be bad examined the plans sleet his examination in chief, and he found Mr. Buckingham's plan most represented Mr. Banker's, bat in some variations it re sembled Mr. Barry's. Mr. Bnovostax then made his reply. He felt there had been an examination of superfluous evidence, and he did not wish to detain his Lordship and the Jury with comments upon the minor points. The great me. ridional line of the cause ought to guide the Jury to all the discrepancies of the case. What was the real gist of the case? Why Mr. Bankes had libelled Mr. Buck ingham; Mr. Bankes did not deny the publication; he said true it is—l published the letter, and gave it to Mr. Hobhouse and others. I gave it to be published by them, not openly, but through private channels into which Mr. Buckingham could not gain access. I did not give it through the grand tunnel of communication, the public press. True, however, it is, that he is the bad character I have represented ; true it is, he stole my manuscu ipts, and published my notes. Had those asser tions been proved ? The East had been ransacked for Mahometans and Christians to prove it, and nothing of the kind had been proved. It was part and parcel of the evidence for the defendant that Mr. Buckingham was Mr. Bankes's amanuensis. Had that been proved? It was alleged that he took copies of the papers to which he had access. Had that been proved ? A book had been produced of very small dimensions, not in sub stance what it had been described. Iwtead of forming super ficies of sixteen inches, it did not afford four inches. If that book, small as it appeared, had tallied word for word with the publication of Mr. Buckingham, some thing might have been said about it ; but not one word, chapter or vet se, was found to tally. The evidence of Antonio del Costa could not be relied on. That witness then had a very imperfect knowledge of English, and could have known nothing of our language in 1817. How then could he speak to conversations between Messrs. Bankes and Bnckingham,held inEnglish? Then he might ask what proof was there that Mr. Buckingham did not go the second time to the Ruins of Jerash ? None. The difference of plans was pointed out. It was said the parts in Mr. Buckingham's plan differed from those found in 1816. Did Turks and Arabs make no dif. ference in the appearance of ruins? Did they do nothing with v illa's? Mr. Barry made four gates; Mr. Buck ingham two. But was it fair to say, because one man thcught he saw four openings for gates, another might not also see two ? The Learned Counsel then adverted to the prints transmitted by Mr. Buckingham to Mr. Murray, and reprobated in very strong terms, the manner in which Mr. Murray had given them sp. He had been sued by Mr. Buckingham. He made an apology, and he afterwards chose to publish those docu ments in a way that could never be forgotten in the Cities of London and Westminster. It remained for the Jury, on the whole of the case, to do th it which it was their duty to do, for the injured plaintiff. They were bound to give Mr. Buckingham a compensation for the deep wounds inflicted on him, and for what he might still suffer with respect to the expenses he must incur under long delayed proceedings. The Loans Curer JUSTICE summed up to the Jury. The defendant had pleaded Not Guilty. It had, how ever been proved that he did publish the libel. Then there was a plea of justification. The defendant had put on the record that the whole of the publication was true. It had been proved false in several parts, and the plaintiff was therefore entitled to their verdict. The question was, what damages they ought to give? The plaintiff and defendant had travelled from Jerusalem to ancient Jerash. The plaintiff requested permission to accompany Mr. Bankes on his journey, and was per mitted. The purpose of the journey having been an swered, the defendant some time after saw an adver tisement, announcing the intention of the plaintiff to publish a work, called Travels in Palestine. The defend ant, supposing they had travelled together on terms which precluded Mr. Buckingham from publishing such a work, became irritated, and wrote the letter which was the libel. His Lordship read the letter, and having directed the attention of the Jury to the pro minent points of the evidence, said the publication was proved, and, therefore, the plaintiff was entitled to their verdict. In giving damages, they ought to take in their consideration the motives under which the letter was written.—There was a strong impression on the defend. ant's mind that the plaintiff was about to publish to the world a work which the defendant thought he could not publish. The Jury giving their decision, should be governed by conl reflection. The Jury retired at six o'clock, and basing been out ono hour, gemmed with a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 4001. 1, OLDHAM, Oct. 16. Thursday, a meeting of Master Spinners was held at a house at Greenacres Moor. At this meeting, which was assembled for the purpose of cetcerting measures in aid of the Operatives who are standing out for wages, it was determined not to support thar system of out rage and intimidation which has recently been acted upon in this neighbourhood. Three mills have corn menced working upon their old wages. It is said that the subscription in aid of the turn-outs increases rapidly, and that the men now receive ten shillings per week, and the other hands in proportion. The society of Master Spinners have agreed to pay, in aid of the turn' outs, five shillings per week each for every carding, engine which they work. Some of the master hatters, several publicans, and many shopkeepers and respect able householders, have contributed to this fund. Mean while the condition of those who are working at under price must be unpleasant, since they are confinedisithin the walls of the factory—they are fed and lodged inside, and are never suffered to come out except at a week's end, when they steal away as they can to their families, and wo be to him, that is caught going or returning. Soldiers still guard several of the mills, but I have not; heard of any further damage being done. The Noblemen and Gentlemen of the Royal Caledn dian, Hunt, on leaving Perth, sent a liberal donation of Fifty Pounds, to be distributed by the Provost and Magistrates, amongst such charitable institutions as they should judge proper. The Earl of BatnowArstst, whose eccentric character the French Journals are from time to time so fond of ■potting with, lives in a Grand Hotel, in the Rue St. Honore, in Paris. His wealth, before enormous, received a vast accession by the death of his brother. He is likewise a Clergyman, and holds one of this Pre bends of Durham. There is new at Allensheads one of the richest lead ore mines In Europe, belotiging to Colonel and Mrs. Bummer. It Is all fresh ground for some miles, and is supposed will continue so for many years. The design for the new United Service Club House, which is to be erected on a part of the site of the Palace in Pall Mall, is understood to be very elegant. Mr. BENET?, the Member for Wiltshire, presides at a Petty Sessions ,at Iliadon, and has politely invited Reporters. to attend them ; expressing it as his decided opinion, that the public are entitled to the same free admissi•,n to them as to other Courts of Justice. Tile tasteful :one bridge which is throwing over the Serpentine river, near Kensington Gardens, when finished will open a delightful promenade and drive en tirely round Hyde Par k—k will consist of five arches, and two land ones. An alarming epidemy has broken out at Dunkirk.— The mortality is dreadful, and all the inhabitants that can afford it are removing. The fatality is attributed to the unwholesome state of the water, and the effluvia from the stagnant pools, arising flow the long continu ance of hot and dry weather. RUBENB.—The Crucifision of St. Peter, with his head downwards, was the last of this great artist's works, and that which he admired the most; he gaie it to a Church in his native town of Cologne. A new Farce is announced at Drury-lane Theatre, in which will be introduced a number of Welsh Melodies. The Scotch and the Irish have been given to us in a va ritty of forms, but we never recollect the beautiful airs of Cambria in any regular drama. Wednesday evening some impudent thief entered the shop of Mr. James Joyce, of Lisson•st:eet, dining Ole temporary absence of the person having charge of it, and deliberAtely leaning across the counter, emptied the money-till of its contents, about 41. I7s. and rushing out of the shop, escaped. Early yesterday morning the premises of Mr. Grove, boot-maker, in Barking church-yard, Tower-street, were broken into, and stripped of many dozens of boots and shoes, and leather to a considerable amount. The thieves escaped unobserved by the watchman near the horse. The millions of money spent by absentee Englishmen and their families on the Continent, but more pai ticu lady in France, have enriched the latter, while the con stant drain from home his impoverished their own' country. The prosperous state of the French Revenue, might in a great d.gree be attributed to the diffusion of an immense quantity of British money throughout the kingdom, to which the money spent here by foreigners, is nothing more than a drop compared to the ocean. The money that should be spent in our manufactures, is employed in the purchase of French and other foreign fabrics, to the great injury of our own manufacturers, who are starving for want of work. In addition to this, a great number cf English servants, both males and females, have been thrown out of employment, and add to the multitude of indigent poor, who now fill the workhouses or receive parish relief. Neither the morals nor the habits of the English are improved by residing in either France or Italy, and it would be highly bene ficial probably to - the future welfare of our countrymen, if something were done to, repress the prevailing dispo sition fur residing in foreign countries, where they are neither beloved nor esteemed. DOOMSDAY BOOK.—This invaluable record, so often quoted, and referred to for facts of ancient times, is sell in perfect preservation, every word being as legi• ble at this time as when written, seven hundred and forty years ago. It is comprised in two volumes, one a large folio, the other a quarto. The first begins with the county of Kent, and concludes with Lincolnshire, and is written in one and the same hand, in small but clear characters, on three hundred and eighty double pages of vellum, each page having a double column, and contains thirty-one counties. The quarto volume is on four hundred and fifty double pages of vellum, but in single columns, in a large distinct handwriting, and contains the counties of Esser, Norfolk, and Suffolk. ACTIMEM.-It was not till after the Restoration that women were licensed to act in public theatres. The following is a clause in the patent granted to Sir W. Davenant 4d That, whereas the aromeris parts in plays have hitherto been acted by men in the habits of women, at which some have taken offence, we do permit, and give leave, for the time to come, that all women's parts be acted by women." The same was the case in the theatres of antiquity. Lucian, in an answer to a person who objects to the effemin icy of male dancers, imitating the actions of females, replies that if this were an ob jection, it would evally - hold against tragedies and comedies. Perhaps the French were the first who ven tured to bring women on the stage. From them we had it. A short time since a country Curate, while reading the Second Lesson, espied a dog of his in fierce combat with another at the west end of the Church—out rushed the enraged Pried from his desk to part the unruly curs, which having accomplished, he returned ; when, being in doubt where he left off, he enquired of his Clerk—" Roger, where was I just now ?"—“Why,down in the aisle, parting the dogs, Mister," said Roger. The reason why so few marriages are happy, is be cause young Ladles spend their time in making nets, not in making cases.—amit- POLICE INTELIGENCE., . MANSION-HOUSE. The Lotto MA Yon has been neat ly the whole of the week annoyed by applications for relief and assistance by. Spanish Refugee,. Yes terday four of them presented themselves, and severally gave miserable accounts of their state, ix consequence of the weekly al lowance from the Committee being discontinued. They expressed their willingness to do any thing in their power to obtain a living; and as, on Wednesday, the Rev. Dr. Rudge had applied to the Lord Mayor, stating his willingness to assist in procuring them situations as teachers in some of our seminaries - such of them as liked that course of life, were furnished with the Rev. Doctor's address. Such of them as could not speak English, were desired to' wait until Saturday, when a meeting of the Subscription Committee Would be held. The Lou) Maims expressed his regret at the distressed state of these applicants; but added, that their habits were of so indolent a nature, that they were ill calculated for this country ; and yet it was a melancholy thing that they dare not return back to their own country. Hard labour they were not fit for, and he really knew not what could be done for them ; but he ho ped that some farther assistance might be raised, so as to relieve their necessities until things might assume a different aspect: they certainly required but little to support them, because they were as abstemious in their living as they were indolent in their manners—their only extrava. puce was their cigars, and which, from their long habit, they could not do without. -------- . Several fellows have recently been brought before the Loan MAYOII, charged with begging, and in case of being refused threat ening the parties whom they had accosted. The Loao Mavoa observed, that these sort of offences amounted to little less than highway robbery, and he in consequence com mitted two individuals brought before him on Wednesday, and one yesterday, to Bridewell. A journeyman weaver was charged with deserting his wife and four children, and leaving them chargeable to the parish, whilst he was at the same dine keeping another woman. The parish officers appeared anxious that the prisoner should be discharged, on his undertaking to make his wife a weekly allow ance; but _ _ _ The Lola 111avoa observed, that as the prisoner had been there before, he should go to the tread-mill for seven days, in order that be might know what It was; and if ever charged there again, he would be sent for three mon ths. GUILDHALL. George iNiersors, a lad about 15 years old, was charged with being a common beggar and vagabond. The charge was preferred by Mr. Burdon, of Norfolk-street, &rand, who stated, that in the course of last winter he called in at the Amicable Assurance Office, in Serjeants' Inn, Fleet.street, and he found the prisoner there, relating his unfortunate situation to Mr. Pensam, the Secretary. He was moved with the tale, and gave Mr. Pensam a sum of money to be given to him' in portions. The prisoner represented that be had neither father nor mother, that be had been sent for by his uncle, from the Highlands,' that his uncle had paid the debt of nature about sit weeks before, and that be was destitute and friendless. He said, be had been a shepherd boy in Scotland, and wished to get back. Soon after the prisoner called upon Mr. Pensam, and stating that •he had obtained a situation on board ship, and he was in want of some necessaries, and that he (Mr. Burdon) had bid him mention his name, to induce Mr. P. to contribute a trifle towards purchasing what be required. Mr. Pen. sant gave him ss. and be then came to witness with the same story. stating that Mr. Pensam had authorised him to mention his name. He said Mr. Pensam bad given him Si. but he wanted Bs. more to purchase a hammock. " Well, my poor boy," said Mr. Burdon, "although thou art friendless, thou shalt not want a hammock," and so saying, he gave him the eight shillings. In a few days more the prisoner called again, in a handsome Highland dress. He had then joined the ship, as be said, and discovered his companions there were" unto' wicked blades," but he was determined to " keep his sel to his sel," and would follow the good path "amang a' tempta tions." He said his prayers night and morning, and possesses! a Bible and Psahn Book iu the Celtic language. Witness was de lighted with his pious and virtuous resolutions, and impressed upon his mind that, If he was a good boy, good would surely come of it. Several weeks after that, he was met in the streets by one of the Clerks in the Amicable 011 ice, rind yesterday witness himself met him in Fleet-street. " Ha, my boy ! what have you some back again ?" said Mr. Burden. " Yas, Sir," said the prisoner. " When did you arrive?" inquired the former. '" But last week," said the boy, " from America." Mr. Burdon then seized him by the collar, when he confessed he had never been on board ship in his life, and begged for mercy. Mr. Burdon, however, gave him into custody, and had him brought at once before the Alderman. In the Justice room he was immediately recognised. One re cowered be was before Alderman Waithman, in his mayoralty, and received ample assistance; another, that he had obtained a suit of clothes from Mr. Alexander Fraser, of Lincoln's Inn ; another, that he had played of the farce of wanting necessaries to go to sea, and calling to express his gratitude forpast favours, on the eve of sailing, upon the respectable house of Borradaile and Cape, in Catraton-street ; another, that he had been a footboy to a Gentle man at Clapton, and the Alderman himself admitted he had been his dupe. He•caUed upon him in his Highland dress, and said he could not wear the breeks for the life re him ; his fattier had never worn anything but the philibeg, and be wad na consent to put on the Week& upon ony account. He (Sir P. Lauri e ) assur e d him that in that lath he would never he able to earn his bread in London. He gave him some assistance to take him back to Scotland, and he bad expected he bad arrived there long since. You remember all this, said Sir Peter, I dare say? Yes, Alderman, replied the prisoner, bowing his bead, and be ginning to blubber. Sir lifers—Did not you tell me you would go back to Scotland? Prisoner—But it was a' lees, Alderman.—(Laughter} Sir Pirrra—ls it true you were in service at Clapton, and if so, how came you to lose your place ? Prisoner—Becaute I tald lees.—(Laughter). Sir Pirras said, he could not suffer such a determined young im postor to go unpunished; committed him to Bridewell for 14 days. BOW-STRERT. Yesterday, a Gentleman, giving his name Thomas Jordan Ro berts, and describing himself as the eldeg son of the Rev. Mr. Roberts, of Chelmsford, one of the Governors of St. Luke's Hos pital, walked round to the Bench, and, familiarly tapping Mr. HALLS, the Sitting Magistrate, on the shoulder, said he had called on the behalf of Mrs. Grindell, who, he stated, had not recovered from the injuries she had received while endeavouring to get away from Durnsf ord. The Magistrate, perceiving that the Gentleman was In a state of intoxication, begged him to retire, with which request, after much hesitating', be complied. M A RLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday, James Harkes, a journeyman tailor, was ordered to find bail for assaulting a watchman. Another tailor, named Ratchp, was charged with taking hold of Hakes, and swearing that he should not go to the watch-house.— He mai fined 51. for the obstruction, and commuted for seven days in default of payment. MARY-LA-BONNE. A Deputation of the Inhabitants of Oxford-street waited upon the Magistrates on Wednesday, to complain of the injury done to their business by the erection of wood inclosures, for the purpose of breaking the stones for MiAdamising that line of road. Their chief complaint was, that the stones for the whole street were broken at these ere ctions, and carted away to the other parts of the road. The Magistrates, however, could not interfere, and the De putation was recommended to memorialise the Paving Board, and, If redress was not had by such means, to indict the Commissioners for a nuisance. A labouring man, named Miens How au, was brought before Mr. Gairrrrn, on the following charge :—A Lady named Ken nedy, residing In William -street, Hampstead road, was returning home through Crescent-ssrect, Eusto uare, on the evening of the 7th instant, when she lost three 101. Bank notes which she had received the same day at Drummond's Bank. A relation of Mrs. Kennedy's, applied at this office for assistance, and an officer was directed to make inquiries and endeavour to trace the notes. No thing, however, could b e ascertained respecting thetit until a few days since, when it was discovered that a man named Hawkins had been seen with the notes in his possession st different public houses, and it was also said that a man named Lee, who had par taken of the spoil, fearful of being taken into custody, bad attempted to poison himself, and was at present in Middlesex Hospital. Web ster, the officer, on receiving this information, apprehended Haw kins, and brought him to-this office, he foreman of Mr. Bryant, a bulkier in Hampstead road, said that he met the prisoner early on the morning of the Bth instant, when he stewed him (the witam) three ten pound nap, which be said he had just before picked up in Crescent-street. AWitness ad vised to keep sober, as a reward might be offered for the notes, and it would be something in his pocket ; they parted there, and he had not seen him since. The prisoaer admitted having found the notes, but said he bad log than while be was intozicated. • r Mr. G strewn said, the pri.oner had got himself in a most seri_ ous predicament : Instead of endeavouring to find the owner of the notes, he bad been spending and converting them to bit own me, and, in so doing, bad been guilty of felony. He was afraid it was not generally known, but if a person, acting as prisoner had done, made no efforts to discover the owner of property which he might find, he was, according to law, guilty of felony.—The ptisosser was then remanded until to-morrow. LAM Another batch of publicans attended, at the call of Johnson, tO account for breathes of their recognizance. The Ant called on was Mrs. Cooper, the hostess of the Magpie and &ump ; but Johnson declined, on the costs being paid, praying for a conviction, as the defendant was a widow. Mr. Blair, proprietor of the George, was the next, and it being established that.he kept his boom open last Baader morning until on. o'clock, be was convicted in the mitigated penalty of twenty lip and costs. Ilions were several other cases, but the charges appeared so frivolous, that the Magistrate dismissed them on the payment of the costs. UNION-HALL A few days 40, a man named Jobs Cellitse, was brought up On thi s once, in custody, from Peckham, before the sitting M ag i s . trate, it. J. Cmaxanas, Esq. on a ch arge of having committed se serious an assault on a young man, named George Warren, as to endanger his life. Lewis, a Camberwell constable, stated, that on Friday night last, about ten o'clock, as he was passing a by-place, at Peckham, called the Melon-ground, be observed a man running off with great ex pedition, without either hat or coat upon hies, in the direction of Peckham ; and thinking be had committed some offence, the con stable followed, overtook him, and brought him back to the Melon ground, w:tere, on looking about, be discovered a man lying on the ground, to all appearance dead, and the prisoner standing at a short distance from the spot. The constable immediately called for assistance, and secured Collins, who was forthwith con d ucte d to the watch - house. A surgeon was immediately sent for, who. on examining the person found lying in the Melon-ground, pro nounced that be had received a desperate blow over the temple. which would, in all probability, cause his death. When Collins was brought to the office, he admitted having Lad a quarrel with the young man who was so seriously injured, in the course of which, blows were struck upon each side, and Warren fell to the ground, where he remained until Lewis, the constable, found him in the situation above described. It also appeared that the man whom the constable apprehended in the act of running away, and whose name is Bookham, was present during the circumstances that led to the assault, and, finding that Warren was so seriously hurt, ran away on perceiving his dangerous situation, when be was taken into custody. Yesterday, Lewis attended, with a certificate from a surgeon, which stated that Warren was still in a dangerous situation, his skidl being fractured.—The Magistrate held both Collins and Boukhani to bail. Two young men, named Wiggins and Nun, were charged With attempting to pick the pockets of several Gentlemen, during a fire that took place in Lambeth the previous night. Fsorn the statement of two constables, it appeared that on the preceding night, about half-part 11 o'clock, a fire broke out in the house of a Mr. Ware, a stationer, residing in Westminster-bridge road, which was first discovered by a watchman going his round% who saw smoke issuing from the lower part of the premises. He alarmed the inmates, most of whom bad retired to rest, and they had just time to make their escape. Immediately afterwards the flames burst forth, and the whole of the dwelling was inane terrific blaze of fire that illuminated the whole neighbourhood. The engines soon arrived on the spot, but the firemen were merely gazers on the devouring element for a length of time, in consequence of the scarcity of water that prevailed. When water was at length procured, eight engines, which were ranged in front of the dwell. ing, played with extraordinary vigour on the burniog pile. and soon extinguished the flames, which were confined to Mr. Ware's pre. During the scene of disorder consequent on such a cala. mitt', immense numbers of thieves congregated to the spot, not withstanding the vigilance of the police. The two prisoners were observed actively engaged in trying the pockets of several Gentle men who ventured low the crowd, and on searching their pockets various silk and cotton handkerchiefs were discovered, no doubt the produce of their night's work. In Higgins's pocket was also found one of the fashionable Scotch snuff-looses. The printing, were committed for one month each to the House of Correction. TOWN-HALL. Col. bi'Donala, the celebrated wandering piper, complained of being forced to move on, while performing in the London-road, by the officers, and requested permission to pursue his present avoca tion without molestation in the five parishes of the Borough. He WAS told that the local regulations were opposed to any thing of the sort, and no authority could be given him for that purpose. lie was attended by two well-dressed persons. La.t night he performed at the Elephant and Castle, on being sent for, it being a stipulation agreed upon that be shall not enter a public house uuder otlyer cka We have visited the West London Theatre, in tot. tenham-street, and were much gratified at the exhibition of some spirited and well-acted Pieces. :, 4 A steam towing-barge has lately been built and pot into operation, for the purpose of conveying the large West Country barges through the Regent's Canal Tun nel, which runs under Islington and the New River for about three quarters of a' mile, thereby obviating the extreme difficulty experienced by the men in working their barges through the Tunnel. The tread mill, which is introduced into the House of Correction at Cronach, in Bavaria, grinds daily the flour requisite for the 4.00 persons in the establishment. Every individual makes 600 steps, and is then relieved by another, so that he works eight minutes and rests eight. The physician visits the prisoners once a week, and when there is any appearance of weakness of the lungs, some other employment is given them. Every one works at the mill only half a day, and the number of steps during that time makes a German mile (about four miles and a half English). Thus they have a Ger. man mile to walk up hill, without mountain air, in a large vaulted room, with constant interruption and double allowance of food. The appearance looks like Dante's hell. Concei►e a large vaulted apartment light ed by a single lamp, near whieh a sentinel is posted with his drawn sabre, which glimmers in the gloom; the prisoners almost without exception well made young persons, in white linen trousers and shirt sleeves, seen from behind in constant motion, yet never advancing till the 600 steps are accomplished a bell then rings, the workmen let themselves down by iron bars by whic'h others ascend, so that the wheel never stands still ; SOO men and 100 women are constantly employed here, and among them are youth of good education. No sound of a human voice is heard in the mill-room, or in any of the otberapartments. All the workmen are obliged to be silent. MARRIED.
