Yesterday morning, on the sitting of the Corot, the SOLICITOR GENERAL moved for judgment on John• Goodeve, Abraham Wynne, and 11. Dorn/cart, con victed at the last Cornwall Assizes, before Mr. Jus tice Bututouotr, of bribery, in giving money to the Electors to vote for Henry Swann, Esq. to be returned a Member to Parlianient for the Borough of Pen rvn. Mr. ADAM and Mr. WIrLDE addressed the Court in behalf of the defendants. The SoLictroft- GENERAL supported the information. After An ad dress by Mr. Justice BAYLEY on the enormity of the offence, they were sentenced as follow :--Dornford to one year ; Goodeve and Wypine to threemonthe imprisonrn each, in 13,:imin jail. TIIE KING V. SIR FRANCIS BURDETT. Mr. DEN \IAN stated to their Lordships, that as he was now Frepared to go into those additional points to which he had on a former day alluded, and which he thought would furnish sufficient ground for a Rule in this case. The. ground upon which he chiefly relied, in the introduction of this new matter, was the peculiar form in which the information had been drawn ; and perhaps that peculiar form would ac count for the peculiarity of the charge which the Learned Judge had delivered at the trial. The pub lication which had given rise to the present proceed ing was stated in the information as being a libel of and concerning the government of the realm, and of and concerning the King's troops, in the shape of a letter to the Electors of Westminster; and the only inuendo which appeared upon the intOrrnation was this :—Upon that part of the libel " What! kill men unarmed and unresisting; and,gracious GOD! women too, maimed, cut down, and trampled upon by Dra goons ;" it was charged, by an inuendo, that the word " Dragoons," so introduced, meant the troops of our Lord the King ; and that the effect of the sentence was to say, that the King's subjects had been so cut down and maimed by the King's troops. It was not his intention to trouble the Court, upon the present motion, with any objection which might more pro perly be stated in arrest of judgment, because it was possible he might be placed in a situation which would render a motion of that description necessary; he trusted that necessity would not occur. The ob jection upon which he now addressed their Lordships had reference to the summing up of the Learned Judge who had tried the cause. In his opening address, Mr. Serjeant Vaughan had stated to the Jury, that there were many parts of the libel in question which might, by inference and by argument, be shown to apply to the existing Government ; and the Learned Judge, is his summing up, and in bis charge to the Jury, seemed to have adopted the ob servations so made by Mr. Serjeant Vaughan. The expression " the boroughmougering faction," had been stated by Mr. Serjeant Vaughan to have reference, wherever it occurred in the libel, to the government of the Kingdom of England ; and if there should hereafter be a motion in arrest of judg ment, he (Mr. Denman) should probably contend that those words were at least ambiguous, and that they ought to have been accompanied by an inuendo. Without any inuendo Mr. Serjeant Vaughan applied a meaning to those words, and the LeArned Judge stated to the Jury that such was their meaning. Mr. Justice BEST spoke from memory; but was sure he had not put the construction adopted by Mr. Serjeant Vaughan upon the words 46 boroughmon gering faction." He had told the Jury, that the ques tion for their consideration was this—whether the li bel, looking at the whole of it, was, or was not, of and concerning the Government, and of and con cerning the King's troops ? The strongest passage in the indictment, as it appeared to the Learned Judge, was not the words " boroughmongering faction ;" for it was possible that these words might not be meant to apply to the Government, but to a party which was supposed to exist in the country, and to influence the House of Commons, but the passage " a reign of terror and of blood." Mr. DENMAN agreed as to the substance of what was stated by Mr. Justice Best, and would give the exact words from the short-hand writer's note. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE could not receive a mo tien made upon a short-hand writer's note. Mr. DENNIAN only propiised to use the note for the purpose of prompting his own memory ; and so clear was his recollection, that he had at once detected an error in the note. In speaking of the sentence, " this is the practical proof of our standing in no need of a Reform," the short-hand note stated his Lordship to have said, " these words are free from doubt," &c. but he (Mr. Denman) instantly remem bered, that the words of the Learned Judge were, " there are words free from doubt." In a subsequent part of the summing up, his Lordship, alluding to the words " to put a stop in its commencement to# reign of terror and of blood," had said to the Jury, if that expression does not apply to the Government, to vls,at dries it apply ? And afterwards, upon that part of the libel which spoke of the conduct of James 11. at the acquittal of the seven Bishops, had said that, though nothing was - directly charged, a great deal was insinuated: that the words, " true, James could not torture his soldiers, nor tear the living flesh from their bones with a cat-o'-nine-tails," were doubtless meant to insinuate that those things might be done at the present day. Now he (Mr. Denman) would ground his argument upon the very words of the Learned Judge. If those words were in themselves ambiguous, and if their sense was to be made out either by evidence or argument, it was the duty of those who charged those words as libellous, to accom pany them with an inuendo. The CHIEF JosncE said, there was no necessity for an inuendo, where the meaning was so plain with out it ; beside, the Learned Judge, though he com mented on a particular passage, told the Jury to take the whole libel into their consideration. Mr. DENMAN still contended that the inuendo was necessary, if the words were at all equivocal. It must not be supplied by inference of the Judge, otherwise a defendant would never know how to pre pare his defence. Those who drew the information, perhaps, omitted the inuendo, as being of opinion the 'words would not bear it out. The CHIEF JUSTICE observed, that the Court bad nothing to do with the opinion of the person who drew up the information. The Judge and Jury would decide on the evidence and subject matter before them. Mr. DENMAN still submitted the inuendo to be • . . . necessary. Suppose a person to be indicted by thei name of Thomas King, and aftetwards, through the whole of the indictment, the word Thomas only should be used, would not the inuendo, (meaning the said Thomas King), be necessary ? So also here, after the words, " reign of terror and blood," would hot the inuendo (meaning the reign of our Sovereign Lord the King) be necessary ? He submitted, it would be dangerous indeed, to a defendant, if the in ference was to be left to be drawn at so late a period as the summing up of the Judge. Hz. was ready to allow that his Lordship had been placed in a novel situation, arising out of the singular circumstance of there being no inuendo in this information, except the single one, which related to the soldiers. There was another point, but that was clearly in their Lordships' possession—viz. that the Learned Judge, in advert ing to that part of the libel, which described the proceedings at Manchester, described it as false within the defendant's knowledge, yet refused to per mit the defendant to call evidence to rove he had reason to believe it was true. Upon these grounds, he applied for a new trial. The Com? JUSTICE observed, the Court having no doubt on this queition, might as well dispose of it immediately. If there was ally thing in the point now newly urged, it would go in arrest of judgment. The information charged the defendant with having insinuated, and caused it to be believed, that the troops had cut down the subjects of the King, and to this part there was an inuendo, vi 4 meaning, the troops of our said Sovereign Lord t he King, then at Man chester : here the inuendo was necessary, inasmuch as it applied to the troops then at that place ; but the other parts of the libel were general matter, and re quired no inuendo ; and the Learned Judge, in his summing up, directed the Jury to look at the whole matter before them ; that he should afterwards have commented on any particular part more strongly than on the other, furnished no ground whatever for granting a new trial. It was impossible to contend that it was not matter of inference for the Jury whether the words, " reign of terror and blood," and the observations which related to King James, his soldiers, and the seven Bishop s, was not applicable to the King's Government. With respect to . the se cond point, viz. the reltsal of evidence, that point was already before the Court :—on the whole, he thought it would be dangerous to grant a Rule for a new trial upon the grounds which the Learned Counsel had stated. _ _ Mr. Justice BAYLEY was of the same opinion.— j Where the meaning was equivocal, as the act of the soldieis, had they not been properly described ; and as the words terror and blood would have been without the word reign, the inuendo was necessary ; but with the word reign, no one could doubt the sentence was applicable to the King's Government. Mr. Justice HOLROYD was of the same opinion. Mr. Justice BEST said, having presided at the trial, he had taken no part in decit:ing this case; but he now felt at liberty to say, he considered the inuendo not necessary. The Jury were to look at the whole, and then say if the general averment, viz. that this was a libel on the King's Government, and on the King's troops, was not made out. He never described the boroughmongering faction as meaning the King's Go vernment, but he certainly said the reign of terror must mean the Executive Government. It had been represented that he bad said part of the libel was not true. It was impossible for a Judge to divest himself entirely of feeling—he had endeavoured to do so as far as possible ; but when he read the pas sages in the publication in question, which talked of bloody Neroes ripping up their mothers' wombs, and other similar expressions, he might have made, and believed he did make the observation, that the de fendant must have known this was not .true; but, whether true or false, it was not fitting for a man of high rank, representing the second city in the empire, to take for true, without enquiring into, such statements. He should have paused before he took j for granted such reports. He must have known that the reign of terror and of blood had not commenced in this country. If he went too far in saying this, the defendant would now have the benefit of it.— Whether a libel was true or false was of no conse quence. If .the defendant had addressed it for in-. formation to his constituents, or had he addressed himself to their judgment, it would have been no libel ; but addressed, as this was, to the lower classes, and to the passions of the soldiers, it was a libel of j the grossest kind.—Application refused. The CHIEF JUSTICE declared his opinion, that in most proceedings, the present practice was to. intro duce by far too many inuendos into indictments and informations. This day, the prisoners who stand committed on charges of felony, were removed from the several jails in the City of London and County of Middlesex to Newgate, preparatory to taking their trials at the ensuing Sessions ar Justice Hall, in the , Old Bailey, which commence on Wednesday next. The Sessions for the county of Middlesex will be gin at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell, on Tuesday. COURT OF ALDERMEN.—Tuesday the following Gentlemen were put in nomination for Sheriffs, viz. Robert Sutton, Esq. Citizen and Mercer; John Theobald, Esq. Cordwainer ; Joseph Bonsor, Esq. Girdler ; Alexander Copeland, Esq. Stationer ; John Woolley, Esq. Glover ; Samuel Brooke, Esq. Cordwainer ; George Bacchus, Esq. Needlemaker; Richard Butler, Esq. Butcher; and Jacob Clements, Esq. Mer chant Taylor. —Thanks were voted to the COMMON SERJEANT, for the great attention and ability displayed by him during the late arduous Old Bailey Sessions. —Sir JOHN PERRING presented a Report from the Committee of Privileges, recommending that a cri minal prosecution should be instituted against the CHAMBERLAIN, for refusing to obey the order of that Court for paying the bill of the City Solicitor, in the suit against Sheriff PARKINS and Alderman WAITHMAN. The CHAMBERLAIN had been directed, by the Court of Common Council, not to pay the bill. After a good deal of discussion the Report was agreed to.

The Army which your Majesty so greatly distin guishes by this step, highly values the Royal confidence by which it is thus honoured; and being in duty hound to return to your Majesty its sincere thanks , Don Felipe de Arco-Aguero, Chief of the Staff; has been commissioned, in the name of our corn panions in arms, to express to your Majesty our sentiments of adhesion and•respect to your Royal person. These we, trust your Majesty will receive favourably, and always rely on this Army, ever ready to defend the cause of their Country, Con stitution, and King, who, in conformity thereto, has pledged to govern and make us happy.

" 6 Star—With the most sincere effusion of our hearts, we re ceived the Royal Orders which the War Minister addressed to us, notifying to us that your Majesty had been pleased to name us Major-Generals in the National Army. Our thanks, Sire, are sincere, and of this no more convincing proof could we give than to present again before the :Throne these vet y same ranks which your Majesty believes we have merited. It was rot the ambition of rank, nor the desire of criminal commotions, that placed arms in our hands. The most pure patriotism, and an anxious wish to see your Majesty happy and tranquil, con stituting the felicity of our country, by a paternal Government, from which you were so far removed through bad and perfidious Counsellors, were the springs of onr actions; but perhaps the grant by which your Majesty has honoured us, will cause our fellow-countrymen to attribute to us ideas of ambition which never existed, and raising up rivals to us, awaken the ambition of many. This consideration, and the dread that our prefer ment May .be - a bad example to others, makes us pray your Ma jesty, that if it is not deemed indispensable to the welfar.e of the State, we may be allowed to decline the favour conferred upon us. It is no vain pride that urges us to this step, it arises out of our wishes for the general good, and in order that your Ma jesty may continue constitutionally to labour with vigour and energy for the welfare of the Nation, for whose increase, felicity, and glory, we pray Goo to preserve your Majesty, &c.

" Palace of Madrid, April 21, 1820. " By command of the King, &c. " To Don Felipe de Arco Aguero." (Signed) ANIAZILLAL CArrszatrav, Mar 4.—Yesterday, as Mr. 'oma, of the 14th Dragoons, was driving his tilbury through Canterbury, accompanied by Mr. GAGE, his horse fell from the slipperiness of the pavement, and so great was the shock that Mr. Fosm was thrown from the seat, which was high, completely over the horse's head, and dashed on the stones, by which his arm was broken, and a severe contusion received on his head. However, from the prompt arrival of an eminent surgeon, his arm was soon set, and be is now likely to do well. From the horses being very quiet, no farther accident occurred. The Gentleman who accompanied Mr. FOSTER was not in the least hurt. Yesterday afternoon a shocking accident occurred in Upper King -street, Holborn :—That day three weeks, the house, No. 64, in that street, was burnt to the ground, the front wall was lately pulled down for the purpose of being rebuilt, and there were some bricklayers and labourers cleaning bricks, prepara tory to building. At four o'clock, as they were pre paring to take their half-hour's reireshment, the top of the party-wall fell in, and killed one poor man on the spot ; three others were so desperately mutilated, that they were taken on shutters to the Hospital, but one of them, whose 'back was broken, died on the way. Eack has left a wife and family. A few days ago, while a duck was swimming in a pond (occasionally overflowed by the sea) in the Clay hole of Stranraer, it was caught by the foot by a large ,ecl, about three feet in length. A violent struggle ensued, and the duck was repeatedly drawn to the bottom ; but, by the aid of its other foot, soon again reached the surface, and, by continued exertions, at length gained the shore, the eel still holding fast. Two boys, who were amusing themselves, attracted by the uncommon noise, came to the assistance of the duck, and could only relieve it by killing the eel.

Every disorganization of the human frame requires great me dical knowledge to remedy, and the public welfare is promoted when professional men (disregarding the suggestions of the envi ous and interested) devote their studies to the treatment of those complaints generated by imprudence, and the ebullition of the passions at an unguarded moment. " The strength of a Nation consists in. he health of the People ;" but it is melancholy to re flect on the daily sacrifice to the ignorance of unfeeling empyri cism, and to counteract, as far as possible, its further ravages, we offer to suffering humanity, the result of our own experience in the various diseases of Debility. The unwary victim of solitary vice (early acquired at school, before reason has asserted her right over the mind), will, in contemplating his powerless state, be come susceptible of enlivening sensations, in knowing that the must complicated state of e:z'uaustion may be roused into man energy.
