FIRE AT YORK MINSTER. , YORK, Fesatosar 10. Martin is folly committed to take his trial fm having wiltully set fire to York Minster, Owing to the very irtitated state of the public mind, it was deemed pro dent that he should be brought to this city at an hour when its inhabitants should be taking their repose. In consequence he arrived within its gates, in a post chaise, soon after three o'clock in the morning. He was taken to Peter priion; the Magistrates, &c. assembled, the witnesses were called out of bed, and about five o'clock the examination Commenced ; it continued until near seven o'clock. A strong case was made out against hiin, and property belonging to the Minster, worth several pounds, was found on him at the time of his apprehension. After the deposition of the witnesses had been taken, he made a voluntary confession, in the most cool and collected manner possible. After signing which, and declaring it to be the truth, he was fully corn. milted to the city gaol, by H. J. Dickens, Esq. and the Rev. K. D. Curter, to take his trial at the next Assizes. He was immediately conducted-to the gaol, and all was completed soon after sevenn'clock. After partaking of some refreshment he went to bed and slept soundly. In addition to the above, the following interesting particulars are copied from the Tyree Mercury, to the Editor of which they were addressed by a respectable Correspondent : . Htsbans, Feb. 7, 1829. "San—As no doubt you will feel desirous of com municating to the readers of your valuable Paper some authentic particulars respecting the capture of Jonathan Martin, who stands charged with having on the 2d instant wilfully set fire to York Minster, you may rely on the accuracy of the following statements: " After the arrival of the Newcastle Papers yesterday morning, in which one hundred pounds was offered for Martin's spin ehension, several of our townsmen set off in various directions in pursuit of the incendiary. Among the rest, Mr.Wm.Stainthorpe, sheriff's officer, mounted his pony, and proceeded on the Alemouth-road, in-end ing to ride to Chollerford. On his way he meta person r.t awl' 'en he inquired if a man answering Martin's descrip tion had been a ffering an account of his life for sale at the village of Wall tt:e preceding day? He was an swered in the negative; hut the person told Mr. Stain thorpe that he knew Martin, and pointing to Wall Barns, then in sight, he ob,erved, a cousin of his lives there, a Mr. Thompson. Mr. Stainviorpe then rode to .Mr. Tho op 's door, and on Thompson coming out, he asked if Martin was there? Mr. Thorny). son hesitatingly said no. Mr. Stainthorpe then asked if Mattin was at Codley Hill, the residence of Mr. E. Kali, who is steward for Meggisoa Pearson, Esq. and ott.er Gentlemen, and Thompson said he was. Mr. St iiiithorpe, on getting this account, rode briskly off to Codley Hill, on approaching which place he saw a little girl, of whom he made the inquiry if Ma.tio was in the house. She told him he was. On Mr. Stainthorpe's entrance, be found Mr.Kell and Mar. till sitting together, the latter engaged in reading a hymil•bonk. They both rose on his entrance, and be, a-ros , i9e M silo, asked, not your name Jonathan blartro ?" He immediately replied. " Yes, it is." 0:1 which Mr. Staintliori e said, " You are my prisoner." Martin displayed very little emotion. did he even ask why he was made a poisoner. Mr.Kell was greatly sll. l lll ed. and asked 31e. Atainthorpe what Martin was char. e.t with ? who replied he was din then at liberty to ie I ; but that he should require his assistance to convey the prisoner to Ilexhaw, on teaching which place he Would give him every information necessary. Mr.Kell readily agieed, end the prisoner as readily seemed dis posed to take the road. The first Ties ion he asked Mr. Stainthorpe was, " do you belong to Yak?" Mr. Stain thori e replied in the negative, and cautioned him not to say cry thing Viat might criniin - at•-• himself. On their coming i.l sight if Hesh .rn, from which Codley Hill is distant nearly four miles, Martin pointing to Highside House, l miles from Ileiham, said, yonder is the house in which I was born, and seeing the church of Jfeiham, he exclaimed that is a fine old church—" did the Catholics Wild that too ?" On the way Martin asked if any York papers came to Hexham ? And also he said to Mr. Stainthorpe, •am I advertised in the Newcastle papers? On being told he was, and also that he was charged with burning York Ca. thedrel, he readily said he had dome it I and be added. 'as soon as I knew I was advertised I intended to tell every thing. On reaching the House of Correction where Martin now is, his handle was opened, when it was found to contain part of the valuable crimson fringe. &c. which he said he had cut away from the pulpit or some part of the Minster, a small Bible which he had brought away at the same time, and a piece or two of the painted glass of the Minster. An old razor found in his pocket, with which he said he cut the crimson fringe, &c. and with which also be struck the fatal Ight by which he was able to fire the Minster.— There we , e found also 7 copies of his life, but coils Id. of money. lie appears, up to the moment of his apps Chen ino, to have been profoundly ignorant of the extrnt of the mischief he had occasioned; but on a Gentleman tell ir g tsim he had totally destroyed theCatbedral,his coun tenance brightened, and the sound seemed to eihilarate him ; he ticlaimed, seemingly pleased, " have I!' He' says he flied the Minster to revenge same wrongs he supposes he has received from some of the Clergy, who most likely'have been considerably annoyed in conse quence of •Martio's eccentticitie:., for as he considered himself Called upon to denounce some of them f .t their laxity of morals, Ike. and they in the capacities of aid Magistrates having dealt with Nlattin perhaps on son.e occasions rather severely.. the result has been such as all good men must deplore. " I remain, your's respectfully. MATTHEW WILSON." " House of Correction, Hcsbam, Saturday evening, February 7, 1829. " SlR—Since I wrote to you this morning I have had an interview with the prisoner Jonathan Mat tin, and hasten to supply any deficiency in my former cum. munication. On my being introduced to him, he said he had no recollection of the; but on my telling hint 1 was a local preacher in the Wesleyan Methodis' So ciety, he became very affable and communicative. questioned him as to his o^ject in but flint! the Minster.l when he very readily told me that he had long been' wf opinion that the Clergy of the Establishment were blind guides; that, though he felt no ill will, malice, or personal hostility ton ads them, yet be was sorry for them, as he believed they were leading the bights tanks in society astray; and as to the Minster, he was of opinion that its destruction was for the glory of lion, the good of the people of Eon I and generally, and for the good of the inhabitants of York in particular, as n Iron the sometimes he prayed, and sometime . • she praised Goa. because, as he said, he had strengthened him to do so I good a work. He farther told me that he bad had two dreams, which convinced • him that it was his duty to do it. The first was—be dreamed that a man canine to him with- a bow and arrows in his band, and he shot one of the arrows through the door of the Minster, and then he bid Martin shoot one, who did so, but was so incommoded by the crowd of people within that he could not do it us his mind, and the arrow flew until he lost sight of it. The second was to this effect—he saw, as he thought, a great black cloud hang over the Cathedrid ;it then moved to the house where he lodged, and shook it to its foundation, and when he awoke he was fully of opinion that the ALMIGHTY had called him tl burn the Minster; but fearing he should meet with opposition from his wife, he adopted the following extraordinary method of neutra lising her t—He took the ring frorit her finger while she slept, and tin ugh she manifested much concern at the loss of her ring, he allowed her to vent her feelings in unavailing regrets until he thought her sufficiently moulded to his purpose. He then exacted a vow from her that she was to keep his secret, and he would restore her ring. This being agreed to, he told her his intention, on which she wept, and seemed greatly disturbed, and they went to Leeds. — He still being determined on his object, left hii wife there and returned back to York, and entered the Min ster on the Ist February, concealing himself behind a tombstone until the people left,, when be went into the belfry and struck a light, having for that purpose a razor with a white haft. the back of which he used instead of a steel, a flint, tinder, thatches, and a penny candle cut in two ; but as that soon burnt out, he got one of the was candles belonging to the Minster. He then drew a bell rope the full length from below, and after drawing it up, cut it and made a 1 id der of it. Working by candle light till about nine o'clock, put out his candle, and finished making his ladder in the dark. He then descended, and got over the iron door by climbing it, and used the rope to gain the interior of the Minster over the wooden door. He then struck a light the second time, and with the razor cut part of the crimson silk velvet from the pulpit and stalls, three yards of gold fi inge, two gold tassels. The dimensions of the crimson velvet are as follow: One piece, 2 yards quarter by yard; second piece, It yard by 1 yard f quarter; third piece, 1k yard by It yard; fourth piece, 2 yards quarter by lh yard broad, the *hole of which I have seen measured. He also took a small Bible, and gives the following reasons for taking these things away, not, as he says, that he had any wish to steal them, but that he brought the crimson velvet, the gold hinge, and the tassels away, that no in nocent person might suffer, but that they might testify that he only bad done the deed ; and es be expected to' be taken and imprisoned, he says he brought away the Bible that it might be a comfort to him in his confinement. He then piled the cushions and Prayer Books in two heaps on each side near to the carved work, set them on fire by introducing matches to eacb,and then, as he says, being afraid of being enveloped in the smoke, be fixed his ladder, and letting it down on. the outside, having previously broken the window with the pincers he left behind him, and then he descended by it from the Minster, a little after three o'clock in the morning of the 2J ; previous to which, he surveyed the riles he had raised, and saw that one of them in particular was burning 'my briskly. He proceeded on to Easing wold, and got a pint of ale; then to Thimble, at which place I e arrived at eleven o'clock in the. morning; then he proceeded to Notthillerton, staid there awhile with a friend ; at nine that evening left Northallerton in a coal cart, in which he travelled all night till he arrived at J pit, near West Auckland, on the Watling sheet ro.d ; proceeded on to Alensford, on the Derwent, where he slept on the Tuesday evening ; left Alenaford about eight o'clock on the Wednesday morning ; arrived at the Riding Mill, where he had a pint of ale; from thence he proceeded to Corbridgr, where he arrived about 12 o'clock, and had half a pint of ale. and then proceeded to Codlaw Hill to his friend Mr. Kell, where he arrived about two the same afternoon, at which place he remained until Friday about eleven o'clock, when he was taken by Mr. Stainthorpe. While at Codlaw Hill, Martin having manifested great anxiety for newspaper., I asked him whether that anxiety arose from any idea of self-preservation ? He replied, none whatever ; but as he was ignorant what effect bad been produced by the fires he had kindled, he was anxious to know. On which Mr. Srainthorpe, who was with me, said the damage was estimated at 100,0001. He coolly said, " they plundered my house and would not give me a farthing for it, and they have got paid home, I think." I asked him if he felt sorrow on ac count of the damage being so great ? He said, no ! not if it were nor the glory of Gon; that if that could be pro moted 200 OM. would not have been too much, and that in his opiniois it would just have been as well if all the Minster had gone together, as the worship carried on in it was so idolatrous and superstit'ous—he says he is quite harpy, and fully resigned to his situation, and will give himself up into the hands of the Loan. He again declared that many of the Clergy were las iii their morals, and heterodox in their opisnons, manifesting the former by attending balls and : -,playhouses. and the latter by not preaching the doctrines of the G. spel, and by not insisting on regeneratiop, the pardon of sin, and the w hires. of the Spiril, — lKE. "Oif oar leaving him, he shook hands with ail pievgit ; and on my bolding out tny hand to him, he took It, and, looking me up in the fare and 'milling, s lid," Pray for me," and we left him to his cell and to hi. strange meditations. I have thus given you, though I fear imperfectl), a plan accoont of all I could collect from hi in. " 1 rennin, your 's relpectruliT. " MATTHEW WILSON."

Sir JAMES Scnitterr had obtained a rule calling on the Corporation to show cause shy a mandamus should not issue, commanding them to open a c .nal which runs from the river Eze to Elver. The motion WAS mule on the ground that the public right of navigation in that river had been obstructed. The &MOVIE GENERAL and Mr. COLERIDGE this day opposed the ruse, and contended that the Co: pnra tion were entitled to take tolls upon the canal, and that it was an improvement of the navigation. The Cover held that the Corporation had proved their right to the canal. and that they could not grata a writ of mandamws.—The rule was discharged. Till KING V. FISHED AND OTlfilifi.; Mr. BROUGHAM moved for leave to file a criminal information against the publishers of the Morning Journal. for a libel which appeared in that Paper the 28th of January last, injurious to the character of Conn . ! de Itabayana, Ambassador from tie Emperor of the Brazils. The affidavit of his Excellency, on which the application was made, stated oat a number of persons (about 3,000) from Portugal took refuge in this co int y. and remained at Plymouth until they were ordered to depart. In the Morning Journal of the date before mentioned, a paragraph appeated, charging his Excel lency with improper interference, anJ throwing obstacles in the way of the Refugees aver they had cleared out at the Custom-house for the Brazils. The wages. b concluded with staling, " He w ill Terre this country with a character as black as any negro in his newlp adopted country."

The Loan MAYOR thought it necess •tyie; mention that be had received a great number of letters, complahling that the public were exposed to great plunder from a gang of swindlers, who were in the habit of sending circulars about to merchants, manufacturers. tradesmen, and others, stating that they were able to accommodate with money, on unexceptionable bills, foe a commission of five per cent. Those gentlemen, his Lordship said, argued very strongly len s their circulars in favour of the system of getting money by bills which might be renewed from time to time, until prosperity should be the consequence ; but if bills were sent to those who expected advantage they were much mistaken. for they would not only find themselves sheet the commission, which was required beforehand, but the bills would soon be in the market for the benefit of the gang of negotiators. The following was a maple of the argument —µ Where parties have a large stock which they find it difficult to dispose of from a variety of causes, they naturally conclude that it is better to wait for a better market, and to pay for the stock by a bill at a pretty long date, on wh ich the broker would have his commission, than to sell the stock at a serious loss. Country cot • ' respondepts who might fancy a house or so to theneseivei entirely, in London to accept fur them, or to draw bills upon, may have the thing done in a quiet way. Foreign bills can be bad in any lan guage required instantly, bet this is confidentially stated. This cir cular most not be shown to any one except to confidential and te epee:table friends, as it is safe business we require. and dose in a quiet mercantile manner." Mr. Nobler told his Lordship that this was very like a quota. don from the circular of a party of swindlers who had been routed from the neighbourhood of Solus.aquare some time ago, and bad taken up their residence somewhere in the Commercial ro.d. The Lotto Maros said that he bad been given to under And that there bad been many victims to this mode of doing business, but be n tbuoght those who were taken in must be inexperienced and credulous indeed. He regretted that such scandalous prac tices should exist, but be had no way of preventing deceptions of the kind,, ezkept by giving a caution to the public in his public capacity. .„2 An 011icerlemoght ►efore the LORD Maros a Mate of a ship and his wife, who had been quarrelling at the private door of kis Lordship, in such a manner as to collect upwards of a hundred people round the'spot. The Oficer stated that the sailor claimed the woman, who was is company with another DUD, as his wife; and when the stranger yielded all title to her, seised bet by the arm, and wanted to burry her along to give him satisfaction that be bad not been unchaste in his absence ; that. she screamed out " order' violently ; and that it became necessary to take them before the Lord )hyor.

He tlieretere, arm meet ing her, said that she mast give him the name of the man who " sieved " him out in his absence, and also codes' that she bad been unfaithful. The wife said it was quite a mistake to suppose that she acted improperly. Fibs was quite a different sort of person. She had three children by her husband, and it never occurred to her togo astray. The sailor said, that upon arriving in London, he beard' she bad been playing the d—l, akhougb she had regularise'. drawn bait of his pay in hit absence.
