Mr. COBBETT has addressed the following letter to a Morning Paper : _ _ . Shrewsbury, May 13. SIR—I read in the London newspapers, the Editors of which are imposed upon by such papers as the Mercury of Leeds and Guardian of Manchester, that we have seen the worst." I read, in a speech of Lord Goderich, that " there is no room for despon dency." These two papers, and their like, have been telling us the same thing for these two years ; and this Lord, you know, boasted of " our unparalleled pros perity," just fifteen months before the " late Panic" same. But, suppose that we have seen the worst ; what ;s that ?—Judge from the following facts :—The finest Cheshire cheese would not, yesterday (fair-day), at this town, sell for more than about thirty-five shillings, the hundred weight of six score pounds. It was almost all carried away by the farmers, who really seemed almost in tears. The same cheese is selling in the shops, by the single cheese, at fourpence a pound; that is, for forty shillingsthe hundred weight of six score pounds. " Seeing is believing," and tasting and touching are the " naked truth." So I send you a wedge of cheese, cut out of a single cheese, just now bought by Mr. W. Clark, of Charles-street, Wolverhamptonat 4d. the pound, which you will find to be of the very est quality. This cheese, while the small paper-money was abundant, used to sell at for 655. to 755. the six score pounds. Judge you, then, of { the state of the farmer, who has still the same rent, taxes, and rates, to pay, as he had to pay when the cheese brought the last-mentioned prices ! Judge you of the state of a shopkeeper, who lives by supplying that farmer and his labourers. Judge you of the state of the manu facturer who has to supply that shopkeeper. In short, all are in one common state of ruin or decay. As the farmers drop, the landowners suffer ; and judge of the state of a landlord, who, with insolvent tenants, has the same interest on mortgage, and the same taxes and rates to pay, that he bad to pay, when he had a solvent and punctual tenantry. The whole of the middle class are in a state of despondency not to be described : and it will, I can assure Lord Goderich, require, to revive their spi rits, something more distinct and positive than what they find in his speech. I em, Sir, your most obedient servant, W. COBBETT. WILLIAM LAURENCE BROWN, DD. Died at Aberdeen, on the 11th inst. in the 76th year of his age, William Laurence Brown, D.D. Professor of Divinity, and Principal of Mariachal College, Aberdeen, Dean of the Chapel Royal and of the most ancient Order of the Thistle. This truly learned and excellent person was the son of the Rev. William Brown, minister of the English church at Utrecht, and afterwards Professor of l Ecclesiastical History in the University of St. Andrews'.l He was born at Utrecht, and prosecuted his academical studies at St. Andrews, and in his native city. His first appointment was that of minister of the English church at Utreoht ; and at an early period of his life he began to distinguish himself by his talents, and by his proficiency in various branches of learning. On three different oc casions he obtained the medals awarded by the Teylerian Society at Haarlem, for the best compositions, in Latin, Dutch, French, or English, on certain prescribed sub jects : his prize essay on the immortality of the soul, which was written in Latin, has never been printed, but the other two were in due time given to the public. "An Essay on the Folly of Scepticism." Lend. 1788, Bvo. "An Essay on the Natural Equality of Men." Second edition. Loud. 1794, Bvo. Before this period, he had been appointed Professor of Ecclesiastical History and of Moral Philosophy in the University of Utrecht, and he had delivered an inaugural " Oratio de Religionis et Philosophise Societate, et Con cordia maxime salutari." Traj. ad Rhen. 1788, 4w. Two years afterwards he was nominated rector of the University ; and on depositing his temporary dignity, he pronounced an " °ratio de Imaginatione, in Vitaeln atitutione, regunda." Traj. ad Rhea. 1790, 4w. Du ring this interval he had been offered the Greek Profes sorship at St. Andrews' ; but the curators of the univer sity of Utrecht induced him, by a promise of augmenting his salary, to retain a situation in which he had acquitted himself with eminent ability. Here he lived in great credit and comfort, but was at length driven away by the sudden invasion of the French army : with his wife and children, and his valuable library; he hastened on board a vessel, and sought a place of refuge in the land of his fathers. His literary talents and his moral worth were particularly known to Lord Auckland, the late am bassador to Holland ; and this nobleman having recom mended him to the powerful friendship of Dr. Moore, Archbishop of Canterbury, he was speedily translated to that northern station where bat spent the remainder of his long and valuable life. pr. Campbell, who was now bending beneath the load of years, required a coadjutor ' in his different offices ; and he was gratified to find him self associated with an individual of Dr. Brown's per sonal and literary character. They lived together on terms of cordial intimacy ; and the one dying in April, 1796, the other succeeded him as Principal and Pro fessor of Divinity, as well as one of the ministers of the West Church. Dr. Brown soon became a very conspicuous member of the Church of Scotland. He was an impressive preacher, a prompt and forcible speaker ; and some of his appearances in the General Assembly produced a power ful effect.—His speech on the case of Dr. Arnot, in the year 1800, classed him among the best public orators of the age.—He was not without considerable warmth of temper, but at the same time he was manly, open, and sincere ; nor is this ardour and intensity of feeling so easily separated from quickness of discernment and vi gour of perception. His offices in the Church and Uni versity he discharged with much zeal and ability; and his general habits being sedentary and studious, be found sufficient leasure for his favourite pursuits of literature. Of the energy of his pulpit discourses he has left a suf ficient specimen in his volume of Sermons. Edinburgh, 1803, Bvo. But the most serious of his intellectual ef forts was the essay which obtained Burnet's first prize, amounting to L. 1250. The competitors were about fifty in number ; and the second prize, amounting to 4001. was awarded to Dr. Summer, the present bishop of Chester. Dr. Brown's work was published under the title of "An Essay on the Existence of a Supreme Creator." Aberdeen, 1816, 2 vols. Bvo. The last con siderable work which he committed to the press, was " A Comparative View of Christianity and of the other Forms of Religion which have existed, and still exist, in the World, particularly with regard to their moral ten dency." Edinburgh, 1826, 2 vols. Bvo. This is a pro duction of varied learning and of solid merit ; but being the result of mature thought, and being written in a sober and manly style, it was less calculated to attract the mo bility of readers ; for there is a fashion in theology as well as in novels. Besides the works which have already been enume rated, he published many occasional tracts, some of which were of a controversial nature ; and he printed some other Latin compositions , which were not published, but only distributed among his literary friends. Before he quitted Utrecht, he had published a poem, entitled " An Essay on Sensibility ;" and at a more recent period he sent to thipress " Philemon, or the Progress of Virtue, a Poem." Edinburgh 1809, 2 vols. Bvo. This is a very faint and imperfect outline of his per sonal and literary history. His talents and learning are not unknown to the public; but his manly virtues, his warmth of feeling, his rectitude of mind, and his fervor' of piety, are best known to those who bad frequent op portunities of seeing him in the circle of his own family or in the house of a chosen friend. To the University such a loss will not soon be repaired ; but it is at least to be hoped and expected that the chair which has successively been filled by Blackwell, Campbell, and Brown, will not be bestowed upon any one of the most ordinary attain ments in classical learning. The loss sustained by his own family is not easily to be described. His excel lent wife, who was his own cousin, and who was likewise a native of Holland, became the mother of five eons and four daughters, all of whom still live to deplore the loss of a revered father. Although he reached so advanced a period of life, he retained his mental facultiee till the day of his death ; and his disso lution was rather occasioned by the gradual decay of his bodily frame, than by any acute suffering. Though re duced to extreme weakness, he wrote part of a letter to two of his sons on the very last day of his mortal ex istence : and to his third son, the Greek professor in Ma rischal College, he dictated a few sentences within six hours of his decease. Having been assisted to move from his bed-chamber to the parlour, he continued till midnight in the society of his family : he then slept quietly for three hours, and having repeatedly spoken in a cool and intelligible manner, be calmly breathed his last at four o'clock in the morning. The end of the good man is peace. CORONER'S INQ UESTS. Yesterday an inquest was held at the Workhouse, Royal Hill, Greenwich, on the body of Ann White, aged 89, who was killed under the following circumstances The deceased, who was an inmate of the workhouse, was crossing the road at Royal Hill, on Wednesday after noon, when she was run over by a horse which was gal loping at a most furious rate, and rode by a boy named Webb, who appeared to have no command over the animal. It appeared that Webb was returning from Blackheath Fair, at a gentle trot, when a boy, in a butcher's dress, struck the horse a smart blow on the hinder part, and he galloped off and rode over the deceased. The Jury re turned a verdict of " Manslaughter against some person or persons unknown ;" and ordered the description of the butcher's boy to be advertised, and a reward offered for his apprehension. Yesterday an inquest was held was held before Mr. STIRLING, the Coroner, at the Wellesley Arms, Robert street, Chelsea, on the body of a fine new-born male in fant, which was found under circumstances that left no doubt that it had, if not actually destroyed by violence, been wilfully left to perish by its unnatural mother. It appeared from the evidence, which was very lengthy, that on Saturday night last, between the hours of eleven and twelve, the infant was discovered wrapped la a piece of cloth, in the passage of the house of Mr. Wake, a coal dealer in Paradise row, Chelsea. A lodger named M'Carthy, who first discovered the child, communicated the circumstance to Mr. Wake, and the latter gave information to a police-man of the divi sion B, who, with the inspector, accompanied Mr. Wake back to his house, and subsequently Mr. Shaw, a medical gentleman, was sent for , who examined the body, an d pronounced it to have been born alive. It further ap peared that there were several lodgers residing in Mr. Wake's house, and that free ingress to the passage could be obtained until a late hour at night, the door being on the latch. A great number of persons living in the neighbour hood were called by desire of the Jury, with the view of ascertaining, if possible, who was the mother of the child ; but no satisfactory information could be elicited on that head. Mr. Shaw, the surgeon, stated that there were no ma terial marks of violence internally, but that the head of the child was slightly bruised. He had no doubt that the infant was born alive, and had lived some time after its birth. He was not prepared, however, to say that the child's death was produced by violence. . . The Jury, after consulting a short time, returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against some person or per sons unknown." A fire took place in a thatched house at Bridport, on Friday night, and twelve or thirteen families were burnt out before the flames could be arrested ; it was with some difficulty that the inmates were saved. Very little doubt exits that the fire was the work of an incendiary. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAT 19. Sittings in Banco. cox V. MITYORD, ESQ. Mr. DODD stated the plaintiff's case. The action was brought to recover 401. for commission and agency by the plaintiff, a house-agent in St. James's-street, for ad vertising and disposing of the defendant's house, in Clarges-street, to Colonel Fremantle. The defendant had paid 51. into court ; but the plaintiff, it appeared, was not satisfied with that sum, contending that the customary charge was 51. per cent. on the first 1001. and 2i per cent. up to 2,0001. on the amount for which the house sold. Colonel Fremantle, in consequence of inquiries at the plaintiff's office, had bought the house for 1,5001. and the plaintiff, therefore, was entitled to 401. A card, stating the plaintiff's terms, was given to the defendant when he employed the plaintiff. Several house-agents were called as witnesses, who stated that there was no universal rate of charge for such business. One of the witnesses stated bis own charges to be more than the plaintiff had charged, and one (Mr. Bates) stated his to be something less ; but this was less than the trade in general charged. Mr. DENMAN (with whom was Mr. DAMPIER,) for the defendant, insisted that the 51. paid into court was an ample remuneration for merely sticking a bill in the plaintiff's windows, and referring inquirers to the defen dant's house. Lord TENTERDEN summed up, and the Jury found a verdict for the defendant. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAT H. Sittings in Banco at Westminster. CLARKSON V. LAWSON AND OTHERS. In this case, the plaintiff, a Proctor in the Courts at Doctors' Commons, brought an action against the de fendants, the proprietors of the Times newspaper, to re cover a compensation in damages for the injury he has sustained, in consequence of the publication of a libel in that journal, which stated that he had been thrice sus pended from the office of Proctor for extortion. The de fendants had put in a plea of justification, stating that the plaintiff had been once suspended ; to which the de plaintiff demurred, on the ground that it was an insuf ficient plea. On a former day, Mr. Serjeant Cross argued the demurrer on behalf of the plaintiff, and con tended that it was no justification to the libel, which im puted to the plaintiff a suspension from his office for criminal conduct, to say that he had been once suspended for nothing at all, and he prayed judgment on that plea. Mr. Serjeant WILDE was now heard on the part of the defendants, and he contended that the plea was good. The libel stated that the plaintiff had been thrice sus pended ; and the defendants, on their pleas, averred that one of the charges was true. Under the general issue, the defendants were not to be allowed to prove the truth of one of these charges, and therefore it was necessary to plead it, so that they might give evidence on the trial of 'that fact. The plea only went to justify so much of the libellous matter as imputes one suspension. The Cul ErJUSTICE—The libel imputes three suspen sions for extortion, and the defendants' plea of justifica tion says there has been one suspension, but does not say what it was for ; so that it may have been for some trivial matter, and not for the grave offence of extortion. Mr. Serjeant CROSS, in reply to Mr. Serjeant WILDE, I said, that the defendants could not split the libel into as many fractional parts as they pleased, and justify what particular part they thought proper. They might have pleaded 14 different pleas, if they had minded to do so. If a jury should find a verdict for the plaintiff upon one count, and for the defendants upon another, what would the court do, when the record was again brought before them ? Mr. Justice PARK—If the jury found for the plaintiff ' on one count, they would have to say what damages the plaintiff was entitled to ; but of course they would not give such large damages as if the verdict was given upon all the counts for the plaintiff. The Clump JUSTICE, having stated the nature of the libel, observed that there were three distinct charges of suspension for extortion, viz. twice by Lord Stowell and once by Sir J. Nicholl. It was objected by the Council for the plaintiff that part could not be pleaded in justifica tion. The libellous matter was, in its nature, several and divisible ; the suspensions had taken place by order of different Judges, on different days, and as the principle on which actions for libel were maintainable was, the malice of the defendants and the injury done to the plaintiff, so much ought to be struck off as lessened the damages. If the defendants bad pleaded the general issue, they could not have given evidence that the plaintiff had been once suspended, and they could only do so by pleading the fact on the record. If the libel in its nature could not have been severed, the defendants could not have pleaded the truth of a part of it ; they must have justified all or none. This doctine was held in Styles and Nokes, and as there were three distinct charges in the libel, the de fendants had a right to show that one of the charges of extortionate dealing with a client on the part of the plaintiff was true. Mr. Justice PARIC—The plea of justification as to one of the charges he held to be good. The libellous matter being divisible into three charges, the defendants could plead the truth of one of the charges. Ifs libel charged a man with stealing three horses, and a plea was put in by the defendant that he had stolen one horse, it would be a good plea, and the fact would go to the Jury in diminution of damages. So in the present case, it covered so much of the declaration as to make it a good plea. Mr. Justice GAZELEE—If there were several criminal charges contained in a libel, a defendant could plead the truth of any one of the charges in justification, because evidence could not be given of the truth of any part of the libellous matter under the general issue. In this libel there were three charges, and if the defendants could prove the truth of one, the Jury would be likely to give smaller damages than if all should be false. Mr. Justice BOSANQUET—The defendants may jus tify any one of the charges—the libellous matter being severable. The Cutts Jurrlca--The demurrer is overruled. The cue, of course, goes to trial on the present pleas. DOE DEM. LORD TEYNHAM V. TYLER. This cue was tried before last Term in this Court. It was an action of ejectment, and the verdict was given for the defendant. A motion was made for a new trial some time ago by Mr. Serjeant Jones, on the ground that do cumentary evidence which was not legally admissible was received by the Judge on the trial. The COURT was occupied the greater part of the day in reading the notes taken on the trial, and in hearing the arguments of Mr. Serjeant WILDz against the rule. The Dover mail, while on its way along Ludgate-hill yesterday evening, came in contact with a man in a state of inebriety, tad all the four horses ran over him, but, providentially, without the least injury, owing to the exer tions of the coachman, who stained every nerve, and with extraordinary ability saved him from the imminent eager.

BOW-STREET. Yesterday morning Catherine Berry was brought before biz HALLS, the sitting Magistrate, charged on suspicion with having been concerned in a burglary committed on Tuesday night, or yes. today morning, in the house of Mr. Hill, Ginger.beer.manufac. turer, of High Holborn. The police constable, No. 138, of F division, stated, that as hr was on duty between one and two o'clock yesterday morning, he observed the prisoner and a young man, whose character he (wit. nom) knew to be none of the best, lurking about Dudley.coun, which runs at the rear of Mr. premises. shortly afterwards witness received information that the back part of Mr. Hill's pre. mines had been entered by thieves, and that a shawl belonging to Mrs. Hill had been carried off. The prisoner and the young mar had then disappeared from the court, but witness and a brother con. stable (No. 158) of the same division, perceiving the prisoner peep. in in a very cunning manner from the corner of the window of :h. cellar in which they resided, and they accordingly became, con. vinced of her having taken part in the robbery. Mr. HALLS.—Have you no other grounds for your suspicion The constables replied in the negative, and admitted that the pri loner and the young man might have been where they had been see: without any guilty purpose. The prisoner, as soon as she obtained a hearing, complained the she had been dragged from her bed that morning by the constable,, who, after having ransacked the cellar, conveyed her to the watch. house. Mr. HALLS asked, with surprise, if the woman had been suffered to be at large from two to six o'clock ? The Constable replied in the affirmative. Mr.HAu.s.—Then, in my opinion,you committed an act of house. breaking, in forcing yourselves into this woman's abode. This seems a case similar to the one of the other day. I hope this sort of conduct will not be persisted in by the police. The prisoner was then discharged. In a hackney-coach case, Mr. ♦LLS decided that the driver had a right, under the Act of Parliament, to go for either time or dis. tame, whichever should be more advantageous to him, notwithstand ing an express agreement. LAMBETH.STREET. Yesterday Joke H. arty was charged before T. Wautra, Eeq. with the following robbery and assault s Mr. Jones, landlord of the Green Man public-house, Poplar, stated, that early on that morning he was awoke by hearing a noire in the lower part of his house, end on going down stairs, he found the prisoner in the spirit.cellir, drawing some gin into a quart rues. sure. On questioning him as to bow or by whose authority he cams there, the prisoner rushed on hi m, and beat him In a most savage manner; his cries for assistance bad brought one of the new police to the spot, and the Flamm. after a desperate struggle, was secured. Mr. Jones added, that die prisoner belonged to a gang who were in the habit of coming to his house, and set all his eons to preserve order and protect his property at defiance. Mr.Watusit remarked, that as the new police had now been ex. tended to that part of the metropolis, be was sure they would afford the complainant every assistance in preserving order, and prevent improper characters, contrary to his will, from congregating at his house. He then committed the prisoner for three months to the House of Correction, for being found as described, in a plate with Intent to commit a felony. Joseph Still, a waterman, was charged at Queen square with stealing a watch and its appendages, the pro perty of Lord Ranelagh. On Monday afternoon his Lord ship was on the Thames in a boat with a friend, and they were rowed ashore at the steps at Palace-yard. His Lordship had previously put his watch on the bottom of the boat. The prisoner rowed alongside in another boat soon after his Lordship had landed, and he was observed by his Lordship's friend to go to his Lordship's boat and take up the watch and put it in his pocket. An otlicer was called, and the property was found on the prisoner's person. Committed. BIRTHS. At St. Andrew's, the Lady of IProfessoe Alexander, of a daugh:er —At Leith, the Lady of A.
