The Russian Fleet of seven sail of the line and several frigates, is daily expected at Spithead. A Gentleman has arrived in town from Portsmouth to contract [or bullocks to supply them with a fresh store of provisions. To this it is added, that the flees has ten thousand land troops on board ; but we know not on what authority, and we are inclined to doubt the fact, as there Wils no intimation of this kind in any of the letters from Revel, which could hardly have been the case, were troops embarked, as such an arrangement generally occupies some time and creates a great deal more bustle than the mere sailing of a squadron. Whatever the object of this armament may be, it is naturally enough inferred that it cannot beadverse to British interests ; or, at all events, that Russia has succeeded in persuading our Government that its in. 'cations are perfectly amicable ; bat it is certainly possible that neither the one nor the other of these ideas may be correct. The hostile movements of States are never without some pretext, and are always accompanied . by pacific assurances to whoever they may think likely to take alarm but it does not fol low that they are satisfactory to those to Whom they ire addressed, merely because they give to them an apparent credence; for to exhibit any thing like dis trust might serve to make the other more cautious, and thus keep the suspecting party longer in the dark as to the real object of the warlike in , -vement. From the reported land force on board, some con. crude that the Mediterranean is the destination, and One or other of the Barbary Powers the object of this armament. Others will have it that the reported 'Treaty with Spain for a possession in the Mediter ranean, has been brought to a conclusion, and that we may soon expect to hear of Russia being put in actual possession of Minorca. Which of these opinions may deserve most at tention, or whether both be not equally delusive, sae take not upon as to determine—but, juslg tin from history, we are not without our fears, however prudent it may be for Ministers not to manifest any thing like apprehensions on the subject, that this Russian movement may ultimately place us in a situation which_ would render the propriety of forbearance on the part of Britain, highly question able. Should the object be an aequisitidn of territory, even by cession for a price, we have a right to say No, you shall not alter your relative situation ; for that is virtually Sc alter curs, to which we cannot con , lent till convinced that our interests shall not be injured. It has not for many years been at all doubted by chose who attend to the polities of the Great Powers, that Russia has not ceased to cherish the hope that the plans of CATHERINt will one day be realised in the conquest of Constantinople ; and perhaps the entire expulsion of the Turks from Europe: indeed, the latter could not but -soon follow the former. Now any movement on the part of Russia indicating such an object would certainly call for the interference of Great Britain, and in a way more decisive than that of mere remonstrance. In one word, none of the Great PoAvers 4 especially the Maritime, call make any hostile:movement what ever without furnishing some cause for alarm so one or more of the others. The present movement may have only Algiers in view t but it is possible that it may have some other object, and if this should prove to be either Turkey or Spanish America—or even Minorca, we would not give six months purchase for she general peace of Europe. We cannot take upon us to decide any thing on the topics which form the present subjects of speculation barony polticians and monied men ; but in the City, thie wonting, the Stock barometer indicates a strong slog. eof alarm. The market opened under a heavy klowl pf apprehession, a sudden and heavy demo. *ion followedi and the Consols which began st 82, fell to 811, 81, sq.:, 80 For the account. and 79i for sooner. The depression was occasioned not merely by ieports of tht movements of other Powers. Several ppo. ;lidos merchants, it was affirmed, had been applied to by the Agents of Government to furnish contracts of bread and meat ; and it was , added that 10.600 tons pEtransporu for troops and stores are wanted, and a Rest of men of war and frigates ordered to be provi sioned for four months, and to put to sea with all possible dispatch. In ate City the alum we find rests more upon the present posture of affairs between Spain and Portugal abet on the Russian movements, The late frequent meetings of the Cabinet Council ,were.occasioned, it Is said, by the pertinacity of 'Spain in« refusing to deliver up to Portugal one oe mo le of the funnier fortresses ceded to the latter ; and the late march of the Bpanisb troops is ascribed to tlik fact. Wh atever c re dit may be due to these statements, they have had the effect to depress the Funds con►i derably. They are .thres per cent. lower than they' were two days ago, and they still look down: The Commissioners fir porchising Stock gave 79i for Reduced Consols. _ _ _ _ We have this day setn several letters from Madrid of the 7th inst. received by Spanish houses. They all concur in stating, that the utmost exertions are making by the Spanish Government for the equip- ment of a fleet, and that, in addition to the militia being called out, the regular troops had all been put in motion to march to the frontiers. The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived last night, and this morning we have also received those of Monday. It will be seen from the extracts which we have given in our preceding columns, that the march of the Spanish troops to the Portuguese frontier, is talked of at Madrid, where the real state of the fact ought to be best known, in a way which affords strong countenance to the tumour of approaching hostilities between the two countries. The Madrid Gasetieer, the organ of course of the Government, is careful to acquaint the public, that in all former rupture: with the Portuguese, two bodies of troops have been kept up —the one to keep the Province of Bira in awe, and the other to penetrate by Earemadura into the Algarve:, and that at the p►eeent moment, the very same double assemblage of troops is taking place. The Austrian Observer contains a long article on the subject of the decapitation of CrEitsic Guineas, according to which it would app;ar, that the fats of that Chieftain had no, a: reported, been the cause of any breach of harmony whatever between Russia and Turkey. It is said that CZERNT GZOIWES had given his word trot to quit the Russian territory, or cross the Danube; and that, when the Emperor Mx:Asyut heard of his flight, he pronounced judg. ment of condemnation against him, and disclaimeJ s ill further obligation to protect him. A letter from Petersburgh, dated September 15, says,“ Prince Gortchakoff, a General of infantry, has just been impeached for permitting ablisesto take place during his aiministration of the war department.— He is to be brought before the Council of State. This is the first instance of a Minister being impeach ed : this also will be the first judicial sitting of the Council, which was organized In 1811." French 5 per Cents. 18th October, Gar. 30e. The conduct of the Court of Special Commiss;on, at Derby, on the subject of the contempt which has been &hewn for its authority, in prohibiting the pre. sent publication of the proceedings on the pending trials for High Treason, has brought into general discussion a question which it appears to us of very great importance to the freedom of the press, as well AS to the purity of public justice, to have, in one way or other, distinctly determined. The facts which have led to it, our Renders are aware. are these t--The Court, at the outset of the trials, prohibited, in a manner most emphatic and comprehensive, the publication of any part of the proceedings in any of the trials, until the whole should be concluded ;—the Counsel for the prisoners after wards complained that in defiance of this injunction a most garbled and partial report of part of the pro. ceedings had been published in certain newspapers; the Court, on being told of this contempt, enquired 1 whether the Counsel had any motion to make upon it I—the Counsel replied, that be did not conceive it belonged to his, to make any motion, but to the Cow' to vindicate its own authority ; on which the Court declared it could do nothing in the matter, and paced on to the other business of the day. Such is the case in point of fact, and from it we think one of two things necessarily results :—Either the Court, in the first instance, Issued a prohibition which it had no right to issue, or the contempt was not brought before it in a shape in which it could take legal cognisance of it. If the contempt eras brought before it in a proper shape, and the Court mid do nothing upon it, then is it most clear that the Court did issue a prohibition which it had no right to do, since if it had the right to issue, that right must ne cessarily have included the power to enforce, without which the right is nothing. What then is the fact as to the manner in which this charge of contempt was brought ? The charge was brought on the part of the unfortunate indivi duals whose interests were injured by the spurious publication; not so much, however, in the manner of a complaint against certain:persone for infringing any' obligatory rule of practice, as in the shape of a simple appeal to the justice of the Court, against a . great abuse which had been brought upon them by the new regulatiob which the Court had, of its own authority, thought proper to enjoin in the present instance. The fact of this abuse, too, was proved to the Or fect satisfaction of the Court,-4 , it is a very unfor, tunate, a very mischievous thing." said the Loao -Crow BARG/1...W mischievous in every point of view, and mischievous to all sides." Otte radical defect, however, it was pretended, existed in the course of proceeding on the complaint ; ancl d this wa s , th at t h e parties complaining produced no ail clavit,ot the names atsd designations of the individuals who had commit- ted the contempt, and chose to make no motion for their punishment, Now to form a proper judgment on the merit of. this imputed defect, let it only for a moment be con sidered what the nature of the prohibition was. It y was a prohibition against publishing, pointed i o o most particular manner ag.tirnt the ordinary vehicl es . . of such publication-Like Newspapers ;—a Prohibition wbici.. in fact. could have scarcely any other class delinquents in views When it was proved, therefore, that one or more of these Papers had contemned that prohibition, and proved by the best of all evidence ) the production of the numbers of the papers contain. ing the offensive matter—was not, we beg to ask, the particular delinquency which the Court had in con• templation, when it issued the prohibition, fully este blished ? And were not the sufferers justified in calling on the Court to visit the delinquency with that sort of punishment which it must be supposed to have ako had in contemplation, when it thought fit to threaten ►offenders with its resentment ? The Court, we are told, wanted to know tuAs the offending parties were? The Court has only to look to the imprints of the Papers complained of, and they would have at once übtaiped every satisfaction on this point. Something 'beside that however they still wanted it seems ; they required ti; at theprivatecomplainersshould go through the part of prosecuting the offender to judgment. —But why should the ' ,rivals complainants do so ? Wil should those persons tender themselves as the advocates of the prohibition, who were the sufferers from the abuse it had occasioned, and who would have fared so much better had no such prohibition ever been issued, and a full and impartial account of the proceedings been, as in other cases, allowed to go before the Public ? No—lt most assuredly was no business of theirs to identify themselves with an in. novation hurtful to themselves. It was the business of the Court to vindicate its own consistency, and to chew that it had not by its gratuitous prohibition renderedthe course of justice to the accused less pure than it would have been by leaving things to their ordinary course.- -If it was not in its power to do► so—if with the con tempt proved to its perfect satisfaction, and with the names of the panders before it, the forms of practice, or any thing else, would not permit of its proceedings ex tropics setae, to punish the contempt ; then we may be very well satisfied that the Court has been altogether in error in assuming the right it has done, and that it cannot do any thing wiser or better than immediately to recall a prohibitioo of which it is able to make nothing. That it has not that power we take for granted on its •wn admiuion ; nor do we believe that any person in the least acquainted with the principles of our jurisprudence, will be disposed to dispute the soundness of its authority on Ibis point. To go into all the reasons why it has not that power, would lead us into a wider field of illustration than we have either time or room at present to do justice to; but, for the guidance of our Readers, in their own reflections, we may brit fly suggest what appears to us to be the most leading considerations on the subject. I In the first place, then, the publicity of all proceed ings in our Courts of Law, is a quality so inseparably interwoven with the principles of justice by which they are regulated, that no Judge ca effectually pre vent it by any rightful exertion of his authority. When a prisoner puts himself on Goo and his coun. try, he makes use of no fiction: the Jury, it is true, are held by a sort of fiction to be that country; but it is .► fiction which extends not beyond the mere necessity of representing the country; and does not exclude the right of the country to know, by all prat-' ticable means, whatever is made known to the repre sentatives, or Jury, whom it has chosen to judge for it in the matter at issue' Secondly-a-Although every Court has power to regulate the purity of its own proceedings, no Court has any power beyond these proceedings. The pro ceeelings, as soon as past, become the property of the Public, which . that Public have a right to make ose of in any manner it pleases. Thirdly—Were the Judges possessed of a power to prohibit the publication of proceedings before them, it musk be a total and not a partial power—a power which would enable them to punish the man who promulgates the tale by word of mouth, as much as him• who promulgates it by moans of the press, since it is only in the measure df offence that they differ.— But to such a power no Court has yet been vain enough to pretend.- And lastly—lt is a power which cannot pos. 'sally be exerted to any good purpose, but may, on the contrary, be productive; as It has been in the present instance,. of consequences the most mischie taus. The truth can never come too soon before the public, and it is never miter to come qtockly than when the various channels of information are leis wholly free.. To postpone its disclosure, is to leave prejudice and malignity to mt)ie havoc at Flzasure of the cause of the unfortu nate l beings who are t h e objects of public attention—so that impressiiins in. finitely-worse than any ohich. the fullest disclosure of the truth could have produced, are almost cer tain of being made against them. TO postpone that disclosure too, is to remove from the minds of the Joey, one of the most binding checks on their integrity, or at least very much to leis.in its efficacy inasmuch as die public are disabled from Igo:ming any opinion of the soundness of the verdict at the time it is pronounced, and a Jury may be ntempted by the great chance there is, that what the public cannot judge of at the time it particularly ar rests theitaattention, they will not eke:Wards trouble themsilves about, to teturn a verdict, which if r iah;ly sifted, would in abide the scruti n y o f opiaied.
