(lIRODI THE NORWICH atzscoiv.) he circumstances that have give, rise to the pro tfactest enquiry before the Coroner in Gondola are still the most important matters for public coasideration. These circumstances are. it is well known, the death of Demo( his Majesty's peaceable subjects, (we dismiss the former inquest) by the bands of a soldier—with out the presence or authority of a civil magistrate— without the forms of reading the Riot Act—in a word, without any other pretest than . the necessity of self defame.. Upon such ground the Corisner, who has acted with the lenity of a Judge. and who perhaps may in some sort be considered to participate in that merciful view of offences which a Judge is always dis peat! • take--upon such ground, we say, the Co ronae, has placed the death of the individual. To //gads Ibis doctrine appears perfectly els fencible. First, upon the general ar that if such be the law and the fact—it is at all competent to the Government to place the soldiery in situations where they are liable and likely to meet the opposition and the insults of assembled crowds, and it must of course lie in the di:cretion of the officer commanding the party, be his courage, temper, or capacity what they may, to order his men to attack. wound, and slay the civil subjects of the State. This is the naked principle. It is so mon strous and so totally in contradiction to the provi bleu* of the Constitution, that we apprehend it cannot for a moment receive the sanction of any sound and calm judgment. Secaly, we conceive that the particular fences shit* Fite law has placed round the person and liberties of the sweet, are not only declaratory of the caution with which person and liberty are protected, but are especially such as to guard against the very evil which has hers occurred. The Riot Act demands the presence of a magistrate—it demands a warning by proclamation to the people tumultuously assembled—it ordains also the allowance of an hour, a time mach a:ore than suf ficient for their voluntary separation, before even their appreheusion or dispersion by force can lawfully be attempted. If then such a train of precautions to pre vent such encounters and such mischief be specially ordained, it can but follow that the death of a citizen. by the bands of a soldier, on were military authority, must be a circumstance Which the law particularly ah bors. As we view the matter then, the charge of the Coroner to the Jury is founded upon a misprision alto gether, and must be regarded, in its own nature, rs entirely hostile to the constitution. But to this will be opposed the very rational question. are soldiers, when engaged in a duty from wl►ich they have perhaps no option to retrea-, to endure in pa tience and sennission attacks which may end in their deaths? Ceitainly not. We regard the soldier./ as Ininshgats—wre obedient instruments in the hands of higher powers, and in this rase it has appeared in evidence, that the Officer commanding the party had scent orders from the Government under which he acted. This brings the matter to direct issiti., and the department which gave the orders tl►at hare terininaied so fatally, become t:.e responsible persons, unless it can be proved that the officer commanding the soldiers to fire, or the soldiers in firing without such command, were the authors of the death of the subject. Such is the nature of the constitutional question—the capital point for public coo,ideration. We have already shewu that the law in its contempla tion of the possible necessity for the interposition of civil or military power towards putting down popular tumult, has guarded against every species of haste, inadvertence, or vio!ence in the appliewion of those powers. In this case every article of these pre cautions has her,. violated. It is perhaps questionable whether the attack was not began by the military—it is quite clear•t)at some provocation was given by them, and it is not less clear that the death of the subject took place at a moment when the danger to the soldier• had altnolt entirely ceased, and teat the man shot was unoffending at the time, and remote from the real point whence the :slack by missiles against the soldiery bad proceeded. We urge these facts, simply to shew to what an admis sion of such a principle as that laid down by the Coroner may lead, by what it has led to. An inno cent aims may be killed at a distance from the scene of tumult, may his death be justified'by a previous and remote riot. Such indeed is the fact and.,the inter pretation. Now such a doctrine we should Lope no second man can be found to maintain. Throughout the whole of this ill-fated proceeding we have attributed the evil to the Government, and it still appears to us that it bas all originated i►► the want of information and foresight relative to the de sign, and in the deficiency of stseatts for the execution of t; at design, respecting the Queen's funeral. %n -thing can have been more mean, unworthy, ill cot ducted, and unpopular than the whole train of plans and results relating to this affair. That decorum has been violated, general feeling outraged, and particu lar injury committed, there can be no question ; and in our minds there is as little, that all these conse quences are the result of a weak and violent thouzli of a timid policy. This transaction, like must of the other acts of the present servants of the Crown, de clares their entire inability to direct the affairs of a great country. We should be exceedinzly sorry to see punishment alight on the heads of the military, who seem to have acted inadvertently, it is true, but probably to the belt of their judgment. Even the unknown officer who is sworn to have been the actual author of lloney's death (for we aetplit Lieut. Gorr) was probably under the influence of some trepidation or some infirmity at the moment, and di.l -ot intend the perpetration of such an act. We should therefor; lament tam see a man so sircumstanced, made to sutler fur an offence which may be he called involuntary. But we trust, that though the comparatively innocent instrument shall he permitted to escapi.—the public odium, the seve►est condemnation a pohlic Wan can suffer, will light upon the heads of those wh.► issued orders that have nut only hail so laat-ntahle a termiva ti•-n, hut n Bich front their effects there can be no he .sitation in pronouncin x, were repug.tmit to the spirit if not to the letter ur the British CUUStitUiioll, and PRICE SEVEN PENCE. which call for the punishment of their real authors by the most solemn proceedings before the highest Mim esis of the country.- Sioce writing the above, we have received the Coroner's verdict, which exhibits a striking proof of the principles we have laid down, as well as of the lenient and conscientious spirit of the Jury. It woul I certainly be difficult to reconcile facts so positivel sworn to by so many witnesses, viz. that an officer de liberately fired at a man standing inoffensively apart from the tumult, with so merciful an interpretati4u upon other principles than those we hare recited ; but we hope the verdict is sufficiently stippg, (particular ly when coupled with that in the case of Francis,) t.► awaken the attention of the country to the palpable violation of the spirit of the Constitution thus cum milted.

There was a great interest last week in the Colonial market, by the rapid advance of corn ; in two weak = wheat had advanced about 20s. per quarter, other de scriptions of grain also risen materially : in consequence of this advance,the continuance of bad weather, the ap pearance of a bad harvest, and t h e reported probability of the opening of the Ports for foreign corn, there wen• extensive speculations in Rice, which advanced from 12s. to 15s.i and 15s. 6d. The Foreign Exchanges have little varied; silver has lately fallen from . 4s. 10d. per ounce. to 4s. 91d. ; Gold remains at the last quotation, the standard price. COTTON.—Ther e was a good demand for Cotton early last week, and the market was evidently improv ing; on Thursday, however, a decl..rstion by the East India Company appeared, announcing a sale tor the 9,h► proximo, declaring► nearly 5,0t10 bags of Cotton for sale on that day ; the declaration immediately suspended all demand for India descriptions, as the buyers could not anticipate the quantity that would be brought forward. COFFEE up till Friday was languid, lower prices were submitted to, and a great proportion of the quan tity brought forward was taken in or withdrawn. Ou Fri day the demand! increased, and the prices recovered the decline that had been submitted to on the Wednesday and Thursday. There were three public sales of Cott.e brought forward this forenoon. At the clipie of the sales to-day, clean Coffee may be stated 2s. a 3'. low-r than last week, ordinary, good, and line ordinary rank Jamaica at a decline of 4s. a as. Wl;All—The Sugar market remained steady last week, and considerable sales were etf vied, particularly towards the close of the market on Friday; the prices were without variation. The brisk demand on Friday induced several holders to ask higher prices this for.— noon: the market has again changed; the demand is Languid; the total sales to-day do not exceed 1000 Mils; the. previous prices are maintained. The !sahib: sale at ,Barba es 131 Mids. 20 tierces, wont off heavily, the middling descriptions a shade lower. The demand fur Refined bonds for home-consumption has been lately on the most extensive sale, and it is the general opinion, that the home-trade is increasing; this circurnstairre has gives great confidence to the Refiners, and though the market fur several days last week was dull, yet no blare prices were submitted to, and the stocks do not accumulate. The demand fur shipping has lately been quite inconsiderable, on account of the iinfaronra!,! , reports of the continental markets, and also the very low prices of Foreign Sugars. RlCK—There bare been extensive speculations in Rice, chiefly in white Bengal descriptions, suitable I , Jr home consumption, grinding, and mixing; parcels of yellow have been comparatively neglected. On Thurs day and Friday were the greatest purchases male, and fur good quality Its. 13s. and I was else generally realised price; for tine 15s. 141. and one lot Ws. was re ported. As the demand appeared entirely to depe•rll ou the weather and the state of the lisrvest. Saturday and yesterday scarcely one contract was reported, an.l had louble:s determined to effect sales, price Is. a 24. lower would have been submitted to, but there were no sellers at any reduction. ItI:11, MUNDY, and 110I.I.ANDS.—In the early ii art of List week, the demand fur Rims was limited.-- dtiiiand for Rum towards the close of the week be came brick and extensive, several extensive houses came forward to purchase for export. This forenoon the re quest for shipping continues very considerable. Brandies were also much in request, sod a general improvement of Id. per gallon took place; Cognacs in several in stances realising 3s. 101—Geneva was also held far higher prices. IVool..—Tbere is little variation in price; during the present year the demand has been steady, and, as the importation has not been considerable, nearly as the old stock has been worked up. Some advance iu the price having taken place in Germany and Spain, the new Wools conies at higher limits. file manufac turers, however, generally resist the advance, ani ex pect, that by holding offfrom pnrchasing for sonar time, that the importers wiil give way; the Wool market is in consequence heavy. IRISH PROVISIONS, &.c.—The rise in Coro hat a tendency to improve the Provision market.—Bacen is 3%. higher.—Butters at the advance of 4s. per cwt.; Irish descriptions scarce; Dutch Butter in large parcels sold at 9ils.; the prices on the other side are materially higher.—Beef and Pork better, but there is nu advance is the currency. TOBACCO.—There are no purchases of Tobacco of any consequence lately reported. SPICES.—The declaration by the Fist India Co:n pany's Spice has hail little effect on the market. HEMP, FLAX, and TALLOW.—The demand for Tallow greatly increased last week ; the prices advanced is 2s. and at the improvement very considerable trails actions were reported ; the demand has since become limited, and the prices have receded.—Hemp has been in good rives% and a further improvement of Ws. 11:1% been currently realised. —Flax is in more request.—The letters received yesterday from St. Petertburgh, state a considerable improvement in the Exchange, it was 3-32als higher, quoted 9 5 IS. lIOPS.—The picking has commenced very generally, and the reports con:inue favourable, on account of the prevalence of fine weather; the estimated duty, has. however, fallen from 200,000 i. to 195,910. About 6illl pockets of new !lops have been brought to market, a small proportion sold at 425. a al;s. fur Sussex; 645. for Kent. OlLS.—There is an arrival at Newcastle Iron; the Straits Fishery, with NO tuns of oil; she brings an on• favourable report of the other ships ; the iteronnt is mit however believed, and it would be 4iEsealt to sell Whale • Oil 4 ! decline of 2ils. onlast weeks priers.—Seed ti:ls are higher ; the import of Linseed is very deficient this year.
