THE COMET. —amp— TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. - Sr. Kirrs, Dic. 15, lin Slft-.; HaYin 'seen in the STAR the only scientific ac. enunt of tuts la.e visitor, the Comet, I am-induced to send. yeti -for insertion the following particulars of its course after it descended below the horizon of the Gos port •Observatory TheCornet,after passing through the apparatus scul p taris. in which it was seen on the 15th October last flow the GosporrObservatory, entered the constellation Gras, between (6eta) -and (delta), a little below the latter. The writer of this observed it on the evening of the 29th October in R;ght As.ct - nsion 330 deg. 0 iain. De clination 46 deg. 30 min.. South ; again on the 30th; in 327 deg: 30 min. R.A.

He had cot an opportunity of seeing it again for nearly three weeks, in which time it had advanced to the 'eastward of Alpha in Indus, but was seen very in diainctly even through a glass, when, from the dimi nished lustre of the nucleus and the decreased length of the tail, he concluned that it was leaving the neigh bourhood of our planet. Assuming this to be the same Comet as seen by Dr. Olbers, on the 9th of August last, it course between that period and the lit of Nov. described an Are in the II wrens of 115 deg. in . a nearly S.W. direction; and its pAth was through Taurus, between the Pleiades and Aldebaran, thxuaigh Cetus, near Mankar, through Ap paratus Sculptoris, year Alpha, .and through Gras be tween Oda) and (delta), - Ncsing close to Alpha, and a little to the south of a star of the sixth magnitude in the left wing. Tht sky.being remarkably bright on the evenings of the 29. h, 30th, and 31st of October, made the object very interesting. particularly on that of the 29th, from the vicinity of the Comet to the star Alpha, which lat.. ter. for some time seemed to the naked eye - to form the .Com•A'a nucleus ; - and the tail extended a length of 15 deg. terminAting considerably to the eastward, of a vertical line, passing through Pissis Australis.

ENGLAN,D THE SOIL OF LIBERTY. • . LIBERATIOSt OF AFRICAN NRORORS. • Saturday evening, the five p"or Negroes, tobsihaup whont from the coast of Cornwall a writ of H ab eas Corpus was issued fi.e weeks ago by Lord Chief Justice Bess, were brought before his Lordship, at hi. house Bedford-square, in compliance with . the. order 9f the writ. No similar process of law had been issued siov the celebrated case of the Negro, Sornerser, fifty years ago, which established the indefeasible right of liberty for every human being who touebes the soil of Engler's) ! It will be recollected, that the poor negroes, whose caw was on Saturday decided, were found in the month of October on board the French - ship*Pearl (the mastees name Legue), which was driven by stress of weather into St. Ives, Cotowall, whete the situation of these poor men attracted the attention of Mr. Kingston, a Gentleman resident rn the spot, who communicated the particulars to Mr. Wilberforce, who, with a humane promptness consistent with his generous devotion to the cans* of the wretched Africans, directed Mr. George Stephen, the Solicitor, to issue out the writ of Habeas Corpus . ; but the state of the late severe weather. 'and illness of the Negroes ' prevented their arrival in town, till a few days ago. The Pearl, armed with 20 guns, and having heated furnaces, was bound to France; and as she had all the necessary chains and implements of coercive restraint, used in carrying on the Slave 'trade, together with the living portion of her cargo which the Habeas Corpus returned, no doubt can be rationally en tertained of the purpose of her voyage. Of these- five Negthes, two appear about 18 years of age, two about 30, and one, an intelligent looking boy, under 12. They are from different districts of Attica ; two of them either speak the same language, or can undet stand each other, some of their words resembling the sound of the Bullom vocabulary, as it is given by some African travellers. Two others also can converse together, but neither of these couples can hold any conversation mutually, and the fifth is neither understood by any of the other four, nor does he understand any of their dialects. When this French ship was driven on the coast of Cornwall, so ignorant was the Master, that neither he nor his crew knew their bearings, nor even whether the land they saw belonged to England, America, or Africa. Two of these pour people described themselves to have been married,one of them having two children, and his wife dead.; the other with a wife living and bur children, From their communications there can be no doubt that this vessel was homeward bound from St. John's River, where she took in a cargo of 244 slaves, of whieb, fro* their description, 70 were women, and about 20 or 30 children. That all these (except the five now in ,town and two boys) were trans-shipped at sea, into a consort of the Pearl, who sailed with her. That the two boys were constantly flogged with ropes, which made them bleed from their mouths; that they died and were then flung into the sea. The poor fellow who does not understand his four fellow-sufferers, is of a more copper coloured complexion ; he wore a wooden collar, was severely- maltreated on board, and often hauled up by a rope to the yard;arm, and then, let to I drop on the deck. The Negroes chewed, by two ex. pressive and unerring signs, the way in which they had been chained together at sea l and so accustomed were they to their iron manacles, that they can put them on and off themselves. It was the custom to manacle the men ; but the women and boys were under less restralnt. The barbarity of this treatment was also marked by the most profligate indecency on the part of the slave-ship crew ; for that portion of female covering which, even among the rude tribes of Africa an innate sense of natural shame suggested, was brutally torn off by the sailors and flung into the sea, leaving these wretched females exposed to the severity of the weather, and the grossest maltreatment. They were, as we have mentioned. brought in a hackney-coach to Lord thief Justice BEST':, in Bed ford-squit e, where Mr. Stephen attended as solicitor, in support of the writ of Habeas Corpus, and Mr. Welstead for the master of the ship. There were also present Major Denham, the enterprising African traveller, and his servant, an African boy. The costume of the latter ex cited much of the attention of his poor fellow-country men io plainer garb—he wore a dashing turban, and under a loose and flowing cloak he was dressed in a rich hussar uniform, of the kind usually worn by foreign pages. Major Denham brought this servant' {who was about 17 or 18 years of age) in the expecta tion that from his knowledge of many of the vernacular languages of Africa, he might be able to interpret the diatects of the Negroes. The youth proceeded with a :good deal of liveliness and address to interrogate each •of .the five Negroes—A spoke to them successively in. three or four of the languages most osually known in central. ica ;he also distinctly .utterei the, names of a number of towns, accompanying the utterance with lestures well calculated to, rivet the attention of the Negroes, blit in vain ; they replied to him in languages :of which he declared his own ignorance. When it was found that every practicable.mode of seeking iaterpreta :tion had failed, all the patties were before, the Lord .Chief Justice in his study, and his Lordship demanded the return of the writ, which was immediately handed id by Mr. Welstead,.but without any iNclOrsed return. The Loan Cams Justice said, that this return mutt be made in due form—it could not be verbally taken. Atter some conversation between the solicitors they ;cared (at the suggestion of his Lordship) to consider of the mode of complying with the terms of the writ, but soon after returned, when Mr. Wehtead said, that he was at a loss how to act in the absence of his client. _ • It was at length agreed between the Solicitors and. the Lord Chief ,Instice, that Mr. Welstead, on cornmu-. nicuting iu the course of tl.e evening with. the ship,'s Abet, should frame such a retuin as be proposed ; and that in the mear.tinre Mr. Stephen. who has the citreot .tie pisor Africans at liArapstead, should give an under* taking •hir their ,satery till his Majesty's Gum nmeut „should , otluarwise•divo.eof.tbetn., . , This arrangement being agreed to, the patsies andsthe _ withlitew— ..The latter have lucked up random frorclakof the French language front the ibip's crew at sea, and are in course of instruc .tion in a few gosh* words; they ran, at present, nearly repeat the alphabet, and a suonosyllabk word or two. 1 . • #•••.--. z In.

CONSISTORY COURT, FIBRUARY 11. • THE MOT .WOBLE Twp 34411C11110311111g etV WESTMEATH E. THE MAEQUIS 6lt WESTMEATIL , The evgnments in, thisucese mere resumed on the sit ting of the Court. Dr. Phillimore, on the part of the Marquis of Westmeath, followed Dr. Jenner, whose arguments on the same side had occupied the Court during the last sitting. Dr. PHILLIMOtti entered at ,great length into the details of the evidence, He adverted particularly to those charges of cruelty and adukery against the Mar. quis, which had not. • betn relied upon by the Mar chioness's Counsel, !seduce. they were aware that tle testimony upon which those charges were founded was corrupt, and could not be depended upon in a Court of Justice. The same witnesses, however, who had sup ported the charges which had been abandoned, because they were confessedly unfoundoi, were relied on, to support those charges of cruelty upon which the Mar chioness of Westmeath now came forward to demand a divorce. But could any weight be given to testimony which, when it was applied to other charges, had been demonstrated to be false ? The whole mass of evidence adduced to support the charge of cruelty against the Marquis was of so roiled a character, that he , con. tended no Court ought to be influenced by; it. The witness Sarah M'Xenzie, uppn whose. testimony so much depended, was clearly identified with the persons who bad been found guilty of perjury: they were proved to have been ender her immesiale care and sur veillance, and he contended that this fact was sufficient to throw a rational suspicion upon the testimony of that witness. In short, the case abounded with fraud, perjury, and conspiracy. Many of the witnesses were sunk knee-deep in perjury, and it was impossible, undtt such circumstances, not to scrutinise the evidence which remained with great severity and caution. Charges upheld by such testimony should be examii.ed with the most critical accucary. One charge had been imported into the case, which, he must say, he did not think his Learned Friend (Dr. Lushington) was jo tified in com menting union in the manner in which he furd done. Lord %%Testi-swath, it seemed, had taken his daughter, a child seven years old, under his own care, and this was held to be a monstrous act of cruelty. His Learned Friend said he was sorry to• find that persons of high rank were base enough to countenance such conduct. Now this was step. ping out of his way, stepping out of Court, and bringing the Duke and Duchess of Buckingham to the bar of the Court, nseiely because Lady Rosa, the Marquis of Westmeath's daughter, had been removed to Avington, the Duke of buckingham's seat, when • her father thought proper, as he was fully Warranted in doing. to take his infant child under his own. management. This really seemed an insufficient reason for attacking the character of the Duke and Duchess of Buckingham, and he certainly thought his reamed Friend should ex plain the expressions which fell from him on this sub ject.- There was no question of law arising out of this case. Lord Westmeath appeared for the purpose of enforcing cohabitation with his wife, and there was no vestige of that description of cruelty in the case which could jsstify the Court in coming to any other decision than that prayed for by Lord Westmeath. The rank of the parties had been pressed upon the Court; but he was confident that no immunities or indulgence would be granted to the parties in this case which would not also be granted to panics in the middle class of life, if they came before the Court under similar circumstances. The Marchioness of Westmeath, like every other mar ried woman, bad solemnly bound herself to live with her husband until death did them part,.and unless she showed good grounds for breaking that contract, unless she showed that there was actual danger of life or limb, the Court was bound to enforce the contract. It would never set so bad a precedent as that because a woman was of high rank she may quarrel with her htisb Ind, and remove herself from those restraints which every other married woman was under. He trusted the case with confidence to the Court. He kit that the noble person for whom he appeared needed only to have his case fairly stated, to have the calumnious aspersions, which were net essarily thrown upon tim is the proge ess of that suit, completely answered. The . Mar quis of Westmeath's conduct was dictated by over anxious feeelingstowards,his - wife. There was evidently a submission, a prostrati on towards her, which clearly evinced the kiadness of the Matquis'sfeelings. In short, he•was a fond and over-indulgent husband, who had the misfortune to be united to a person, to say the least of it, of very unhappy temper, and one who was perpe tually straggling for that dominion and management, which, as it would have degraded the husband, ought never to have been intrusted to the wife. Under all the circumstances of the case, he submitted that the charge otadultery was altogether untrue, that the charge of ,cruelty was not supported upon testimony which could be relied on, and that the Court was bound to decide in favour of the Mat qois of Westmeath, and to enforce the Marchioness to return to that cohabitation from whit!) she had unjustifiably withdrawn herself. ' Dr. Luslintsros rose to reply on behalf of the Marchioness of Westmeath, when • .Eur. C. Romusou tuggestei,.that as the reply could not be con eluded this day, it might be deferred to the next Court day. • Dr. Lnsnnoarcix acquiesced in the suggestion that fell from the •Court. lie felt, be said, that be would come to the subject more let ease on the nest Court •day, as his spirits were a little flattered by what had Wien from Dr. Phillimore—(A laugh).
