PREPARATIONS FOR THE RECEPTION OF THE QUEEN 4T ST. PAUL'S. A meeting of the committee appointed to super intend the iarangements tier the reception of the Queen at St. Paul's Caibtoral took place o i Thurs. day, and after acme conversation it was agreed; That as the best means of providing for the seen lily of the chard' and its members, against the danger apprehended by the Dean and Chil e ter, the whole of the Church and Choir should, oa Wednes day next, be given up to the L •rd Mayor and Cor poration, with the exception of a portion of room for such persons as the Dean and Chapter may chose to introduce. That the Lori Mayor aid Corporation should be rllowed to lay down any benches or carpeting for the accommodation the congregation, and, That Doctor Hughes be empowered to communi cate the Fame to the lean and Chapter. It is reported that Gore. anent has suggested the plan of giving up the Church to the Cor p orat io n, in order that they, possessing as they do, the means of preventing breaches of the peace and injury to the property of the Church, may exercise that power with the greater effect, the responsibility wholly resting upon themselves. Eighty of the Corporation are to receive her Ma jesty at the outer gate. TinkAs are to be issued, it `4 probable, and care is to be taken that the Church shall not be crowded to inconvenience. It is generally believed that a paper containing matter of thanksgiving will be handed to the idler gyman who is to officiate, but who wilt exercise Ns discretion upon the subject of adding it to the ge neral service. No change is expected to be made in the 'present state of the Liturgy; but it is to be remembered that the Queen has given notice that she will visit St. Paul's merely as a private individual.

However the Court was pleased to dispense of the proceedings against the Queen, that no provision with taitlictio3 corporal punishment, and fatted hint Md. could be made for her Majesty while those proceedings were and 251. costs. pending; anti it having been lately signified to her on the sansaituiloirity, that neither could provision he usage fur her, nor a residence supplied, till Parliament met for the die. patch of business; it dues seem a Mee estroardiaary—that Parliament being at that time actually sitting, and the t wo How a being to meet, and a call of the House of Commons having been ordered for today—than, under suck eirearn bloomed, a prorogation should take place. Dot the vise is infinitely aggravated by this fact, that the Queen had pre pared it communication and baddirected her Law °dicers to present it to the House 01 . COC11111011$ ; that Lord Castlereagh was apprised of their intention to do so; cud that the sitting of the commission to prorogue the Parliament was so timed, that Mr. Denman was prevented from delivering it, though he took the very first opportunity to rise fur that pureiNe, 1714, however, is not all. The prorogation took place, hut quite contrary to theme/it—l believe the I usle— practice, no coemnituicatiun of any sort was i • .o the Houses on the state of affairs and the political . 41111 of the country, internal or external; though most assuredly the events which have occurred, both at house and almost!, since the commencement of she sessions, have been of sufficient importance to require that the King's Ministers should have advised his hleyesi) to stale in kis Parlialieut his opiaion therenii. tinder these circumstances and considering the prevent agitated state of Use pablic mind, I cannot bet contemplate the prorogation of the Parliament till the 23.1 ofJamiary, as a measure pregnant with the greatest danger lathe Slate — to the rrauquillity, and thence iodic liberties of the people, and to the permanency of the civil and religious estalstisis meets of the country. 1 an., therefore. disposed to recom mend theta requisition should be presented to the High !Merit; to calla pantie Meeting of the Gayety as soon sea possible, for the twinge id praying the King to reassemble the Parliament without loss of tune; and 1 think this the most expeditious mode of insetting kaoline my opinion, that in case any of yon should agree with me, Resolutions may be immediately prepared, awl signatures procured to them ; which Iteiptisitionseither may he forwarded to the Steered' iiirect, or, davit to me, shall, wheu collected, be trans mitted without delay. 1 have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful humble semi/int FOLEINTONV.

Ihe de. feridant was charged with a rape on his sen•ant, and commitied on that charge. The affidavit in support of the application set forth, that although the prosecu►rix stated the crime to be co►ttn►itted on a Saturday, she made nucomplaint mail two ur three days alter. Other circumstances were stated which induced the Court to grant the writ. THE MIND V. HYAM HAMMY. Mr. Barnet moved for a rule to chew cause why Mr. Elias Isaacs, au attorney of the court, should nut pay back a certain soul of 2001. and answer the matters contaiiittl in the following at lalavit. The affidavit, which Mr. Andrews then read, stated these facts :—Mr. J. Ca pua, an orange merchant in Houtidaditch, on the Ist of July last, possessed a certain bank note,value 3001. and upon the 4th July, either by accident or robbery, lost the same. knowing the number of his note, the loser forthwith stopped it at the Bank, and advertised, in The Times newspaper, a reward of 1001. to whoever should restore it. Alter some days' anziety,Mr.Captia received intimation that MI. Obi Isaacs had something to cam niunicate, and waited upon that gentleman at his house. Mr. Isaacs received his visitor with much formality; Muss Isaacs was desired to quit die chamber of confe rence; and Mr. Isaacs then said, " I have heard of your note: witliiu these few days it would nave been at Leg . 110,11; but if you will give 20401. instead of the tool. yin have offered, you shall have it, and that will be a saving of 1001. to yon." Possessed with the merits of this in g enious calculation, Mr. Canua left the house of Mr. Isaacs, and tail( advice 114X111 the course which he should latrine; he returned, and consented to give the sum demanded. Mr. Isaacs then said, "Give me 20 ten pound notes, and you shall have your bill." Mr.Capua (duetted, "As I have stopped the rote, it is hard I should pay so much;" but his interlocutor remarked, that " aganist a bona fide holder the Bank could not stop payment." The 2tail. were then paid; Mr.Capua was desired to go hoitie,and to call again in a short time for bus note; but ne had scarcely reached his own house ' when the note wrapped in a piece of paper,was brought by a man of the name of Yates, a clerk of Mr. Isaacs. With the result of this transactiou, Mr. Andrews coon nued, Mr. Capita, as the Court would suppose. could not be eatislied• He applied to the Lord Mayor; Mr. Isaacs was ed, and called upon-to account for having the note in his possetsiou, and to give up the name or the party on whose behalf he hau been acting. lie refused to do so, and it was riot until he was threatened with coniuiittal, and informed that, under the Act 411 t Geo. 111. commonly called Jonathan Wild's Act, he would probably be liable to prosecution for felony, that lie said he had received a note from a man of the name of Solomon'. To holomons Mr. Andrews proceeded; no application had been made either to confirm or to disprove the truth of the statement made by Mr. Isaacs; but there was one particular circumstance about that gentleman's conduct especially deserving the attentko of the Court. The 3001. note was in his hands. How did he know that it belonged to Mr. Capita? Not 110111 the advertisement, for the advertisement gave au A. address at the house of another person. How. he wisiittl to know, and from what source, did Mr. Isaacs get his information? Mr. Justice Best thought that the rule hail better be drawn tip with the alternative "or be struck off the rolls." Mr. Justice Bayley agreed, as it was possible the Cowl might think that Mr. Isaacs had acted contrary to his duty as an attorney, by lending hisnielf to such a trails , action.—ltule granted WILDNRSDAY, Nov, 22. ARGUMENT FOR A NEW TRIAL.--TIIT KING V. SIR F. MURIMTT. The continuation of the argument in this case in sup port of d new trial,came on according to special appoint ment. Mr. Blackburn, who was partly heard on Thursday last, agai.i addressed the court. and resumed his former lute or argument. The Learned Gentlemen on the other side had contended, that writing a libel witliont publication was a c c. They had contended also, a libel might be written in one county and published is onorier, and that the parties were liable to be tried in either county. To this proposition of law Mr. Blackburn could not accede. The authorities decide the contrary. The crime was not complete without two acts, naun the writing and publishing. Writ in g without putilication was no crime. The propwitiou WHITEHALL. Nov. ^l.
