ZiTILICT TILOX THE PRZFACE: Circumstances the most extraordinary have long kept me near the most extraordinary man of modern times. Admiration made me follow him without knowing kim, and lota attached me to him as soon as I did know him. The world is full of his glory, his deeds, and his monuments, but no one knows the true I shades of his ch aracter, his private qualities, or the natural dis position of his soul. This great void I undertake to lill up, and for such a task, I poasesa advantages unexampled in history. I collected and recorded, day by day, all that I saw of Napo-1 iron, all that [ heard him say during the period of eighteen months In which I was constantly about his person. In these conversations, which were full of confidence, and which seemed to pass, as it were, in another world, he could not fail to be poor trayed by himself as if in a mirror, in every point of view, and under every aspect. Henceforth the world may freely study him : there can be no error in the materials. I consithr the publication of my work as a sacred duty to the memory of him whose loss I deplore, I also hop; it may afford pleasure to those who loved him, and farce respect from those who were his enemies• Finally, I have a third and no less im portant object in this publication, namely:that* will afford an opportunity d defence to these who stay find anything stated in it of which they have cause to complain ; the Public sell judge and history will speak with 'teeter certainty. couNT LAS CASES.

This wastes attics to recover damages for an ex (*Wye distress for rent, and -for oppressive conduct in levying it. Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN stated the case to the Jury. The plaintiff is a patent revolvinrheel and window hlind.manafacturer. In 1841, he resided in Brook ! street, St. George's-fields, whore be carried his i lbusiness. In August, in that year, he became in debted to May, his landlord, for rent. A distress was ta ke n , and the property felitid 011 the premises was and Most part of it sod 'by auction. 'rho I tecond defendant (Du ffi eld) was the broker employed on the occasion. rbe grounds of action were, that the distress was unreasonable and excessive; the defendants having di strained property exceeding in value 2001: to satisfy a debt of 201. that tender of 951. for debt and costs was made by the plaintiff before the goods were sold, which was refused ; and lastly, that the distress was made upon the utensils of the plaintiff's trade, there being other property sufficient to satisfy the debt. Lloyd, the auctioneer, proved the sale of the goods, under a distress. There were two sales. At the first the goods sold amounted to about $3l. .There was, however, a second sale; after which there did not remain more than 231. On his cross-examination, this witness said that at the first sale Stubbs, the plaintiff, came and bid for the goods, and was she purchaser of about 2.51. worth of them; but he did not take them, tad they were subsequently resold for IW. Mr. Browning proved that he went to the de fendant, Duffield, and asked, if the debt and costs were paid before the sale, whether he would ' return the goods ? The defendant replied " Certainly."— , The debt and,costs were at this time 281. and some' odd shillings, exclusive of the cost of removal. Scott proved that he went the day before sale and made a tender of 251. for debt and costs, but it was refused by Duffield. Stanton, a man who had been in the employ of plaintiff in August, 1821, stated that at that time he was in possession of two turning lathes, a chuck, ' - .several dies, and other utensils of his trade, which, if bought new, would cost 1501. It was also proved that the utensils were in a very good state. They bad been in use three years. The plaintiff's daughter proved that there were several articles of valuable furniture, besides the utensils of her father's trade. These articles were I left untouched. It appeared, however, from the catalogue of sale, that the lathes, which were said to be so valuable, did not bring more than 61. and that the plaintiff himself, at the first sale, had bought them in at 71. 12s. Mr. Serjeant Psu., for the defendant Duffield, .contended that there was no evidence to prove any of the counts of the declaration as against him, except that of Scott, which spoke of the tender of 251. Even upon that, however, he maintained the plaintiff was not entitled to recover ; for it was admitted that the debt and costs of levy, possession, &c. exclusive of the expense of the removal of the goods from Brook sueet to near Blackftiar's, exceeded 251. If the Jury believed that the cost of removal would make the whole arhount to above 251. which was not unrea sonable, then the tender of that sum would not be sufficient. He then commented upon the absense of all proof that there was sufficient property to cover the debt, independently of the utensils of the plain , tiff's trade. • - fora misdemeanour agiiittei4 f ik a p ar k a '. gild R o b er t Hewer, whose convfar.irei• r i, re is tr;•;.. • • if the Sr** of yesterday.

This was an indictment against the defendant, charging him with embezzling certain parish monie s , While filling the public o ffi ce of Overseer of the Parish of Poplar from March, 1821, to March, 1822. The . indictment was of great length, and contained agreat variety of counts. • The defendant had filled the office of Overseer far the Parish of Poplar on a year previous to 1 . 821, and had received the thanks of the Vestry for his condo& —He had in consequeoce•been a second time Shown for the office, and it was not until the second e/ectieri that any suspicions attached tbliim. The principal witness, and the first examined on the part of the prosecution, was Mr. Horne, the Vestry Clerk of the Parish of Poplar. He proved that he had examined the books of the defendant, and,the account delivered' in by him, and had found that, in the fist quarter, the sum of 2541. was swelled to an amount exceeding 6001. Inquiries were Made, and strong suspicion fell upon the defendant in consequence, that he had em bezzled the public money. In his cross-examination the witness admitted that he had • once burrowed of Mr. Richie, while Overseer, the sum of 501. and was three or four times applied to for the money before he returned it. The other witnesses called for the prosecution (with the exception of William Smith, the parish beadle) were paupers, fathom the defendant, in his accounts, had said he had relieved. The indictment contained a list of 224 paupers, whom th• defendant had stated he had relieved, but only eight of these were called. Some of them proved that they had received no parish relief from the defendant, anti others, that the mancy they had received was much below what the defend ant had stated he had given. It appeared, however, that some had received relief from the Parish Hall, although not peisonally from the defendant. 'lsivii of the witnesses were very vehement in their man ner of giving evidence; and another (John Dris coll) being asked how many childrente had, said he could not tell: He had only one to support himself. .Mr. ADOLPHUS spoke at great length for the de fendant, and commented upon the very weak -evi dence which had been produced on the part of the prosecution. In the parish of Poplar there were be tween 3000 and 4000 paupers annually to be relieved, and it was impossible for the defendant now to be prepared with an answer to the eight cases out of 224 which had been proved by, the prosecutors. Fre quently 30 or 4.0 paupe, s, and sometimes 100, sir rounded the defendant's door at once, and he was compelled on the instant to satisfy the demands of all. The defendant, besides other disadvantages, had been deprived of his books, and thus all power of replying to the foul charges brought against him was entirely taken away. Many respectable witnesses gave the defendant a good character : Verdict—Not Guilty. SURREY SESSIONS, DECEMBER 2. Two toll collectors of Vauxhall Bridge, named Menzies and Bennet, and a Bow-street pat: 01, named Turner, wete charged with having committed an outrageous assault upon Mr. Phillips, a coal-mer chant,ppotielearredw i t t rm i o lesse t s h , e t e h v a i t de o n n ce s o u f n N d l a r y . , P t h h i e l l i l p 4 s t h an o d f residing in Seale-street. thr l ee ta July last, he was going at between nine and ten at night along Vauxhall Bridge, with his wife, two children, and his friend Mr. Lyons.

Mr. Justice P.tax summed up the evidence, and the Jury, after having retired from Court for three quarters of an hour, gave a verdict for the defendants. II rWa l.!Minr. "t• ••••••1 • •
