[ranv.rni CONATITUTIoN, SUN D Y r %PER.] The timely discovery of a t wicked deign has for-' iiuiitcly relieved the historian frbtu the painful duty of tranmaitting to posterity the details of taunters anal as sassinatious of the worst decription. A plot, a con spiracy, to take away the lives of the Cabinet tors; this, indeed, is the alleged charge—this is the t rinse of which our countrymen are accused. We did hope, for the sake of our national character, that omen capable of committing such atrocities had bug ceased to exist among us. During the dark ages of the world, ~ hen ignorance, bigotry, aml implacable res 4 titment, tortoni the Ica:ling features in the human breast-, acts of oaring iniquity, and deeds so fetal to public tranquillity, might have been contemplated without horror, moon wi:hout remorse, and commented on without severity. But among a prup!e remarkable for inge tdousn.s, bravery, and generosity, that such events should have been nte.litated, as the cold-blocmed wnrdt•r of a number of itsdi►ihaals, however obnoxious, however unpopular, or however much censured and despise !, is a circunistan:e that gives rise to astunisliment and in credulity. Ike hostile preparations, the formidable and terrific instruments of death, the hoar and place of meet ing, all indicate but too plainly the intention to perpe trate some bold, some violent, some outrageous deed. Bet, however much the mere contemplation of the ale- Ages of the conspirators tuay inspire us with surprise and horror, we are nevertheless disposed to treat their bulgier preparations as euntemptible. or ot small Ding nitwit:, when we are told that the complete stihver. • of thepresent tiovernment was the ultimate aim ot this handful of delinquents. Let their firs: object have -ttr ree.ied let their intended virtltns have been isiono:ated to their furious wrath, at the imattsent they a ere enjov ilg the pleasures of the lentos •tting-table—nould this have raised armies of aiihi•relts to second their mur derous pursuits? Would cohorts bate diwkeil to their standariis, already stained and polluted by cowanlly mur ders? Where would have been the liosii's faithild and long-trieil guards anal troops Conti' not their lo) airy Imre 1... en trii , ted : Could not their swords have silayed the ferment, and exterminated this banditti ? I f nut, Then de— li-et' is of no avail ; rebellious hearts fill the country, and those who have shed tears 'spun the tooth of unr late I•eloved King, have, tinder the semblance of grief, uttered sup prayers for the extinction of the Brunswick dye ssty. lint if . we are loyal subjects, anti nut likely to be infected with the tresson nourished in the bosoms ot tnisprnidrd wretches, why nut despise the miserable a n d tattle rt tempt of insensate, infuriate assassins, am! puni:lt their deliniptencies ? They bare, indeed, borrowed the lam .1 smile of liberty to conceal their deep and vengeful ; but surely no friends of liberty stimuld mar their owe views hy aiding @trinities, which, if cm-etc...l, ma.: infallibly sound the efforts of tyranny and oppress by blemishing- .lesrots with a pretext fur extinguishing the last remaining spark, and proscribing the very MIME of liberty. The tools and agents of eorniption, instead of m irin g with all panic,' in the universal execratiou of a dialudi ...ll plot, have already charged the rontgitntienal op josers of unconstitutional on asnres as the ios:igafurs, ImaiNliate ur remote, of this dreadful conspir..ry.— With inconsiderate injustice, they have Brant a lisle of demarcation to pene their art piarpo.es am.' 0 wise the frirtult of reform, of freedom, stool the Cum stitntion.

NORRIS. —.do.- Ve present our Readers with the following observa tions, whirls we have no doubt wiil be ace •ptable to wrinv ;Athens ; they have been published as a Ileface to the 'Report rf the Trial of the Cause between John plaktitf, and Arthur 31orris, Bailiff of the Li forty of the Mon and Chapter of the Collegiate Church of St. Peter, at Westminster, defendant, for refusing to rreeil• the plaintiirs vote at the Election of a Member aliament for the city of Westminster, trie4 in the Court of King's Bench, liuilolhrll , London, on Wednes day, Januar:lY, WO, before Lord Chief Justice Abbott, DWI • Special Jury. Published hy order of the Com mittee appointed to manage the Election on the part of ,1 ,hu Cam llobhouse, Esq.:— The trial, Cullen against Morris, has decided a point of the utmost importance. The question at issue hat I:ttle or no reference to the individual interests of ti , e ',Willa and defendant, nor was the action Int:light for the porpose of obtaining money from the Vigil rola of Westminster. Far other mot; oi determine i lir. Cullen upon the present occasi ;he wished it to he left to an English Court of Justice to say, whether the right of returning Members to Parliament for the city et Westminster shall remain in the householders at large • or, whetiser it shall be taken from thrum anti he rested in the returning officer, assisted by the collectors of the pones' rate. This, as was said by the learned and slop's-tit Counsel for Mr. Cullen, was the real question at Issue—and it may be safely said, that nut only N est 'Muster but every scot and lot voter in the cottuiry was interested in the event of this trial. That event has been such as every friend to freedom must have desired. The object of Mr. Cullen's Counsel, as lie stated it in his speech, was to have it solemnly determined, first, letlier an elector is disfranchised end deprived of his Frivili•ge by his p oor' rate: bring in arrest where he has once paid— is still liable to pay—and has the vi sible means of doing so ; and, secondly, whether a re tosal to aiLnit an unobjectionsbk vote doe. not subject the returning officer to au action, without any proof of malice. The first of these questions was decided in favour of Mr. Cullen; and to nigh Bailiff' in Westiiiiiister will venture for the ftitnre to deprive an elector of Isis vote at the suggestion of a Bate ( ',Berme. As to the second q uestion Lord Chief Justice Abbott, dittering from Lord H olt, thought malice a necessary i n gredient in the vfosal of a vote by * returning officer, in order to jus tify an action; and the reader, seeing how extremely difficult, if not almost impossible, it insist be to prove a bad motive, will not be surprised that a Jury, leaning, like true Englishmen, to the most generous interprets lion of conuluet, should have hesitated to give a verdict against Mr. Arthur Morris, upon the present trial. But PlO;r*r" THE STATESMAN. there is no doubt that a future refusal, upon cirrus stances similar to Mr. Cullen's vote, wood con stitut e malice on the part of the Bich Bailiff. .1 yer.lict for Mr. Callen could scarcely hay- done o.ore titan relieve him fr his share of costs. The vital litystign, as to th e right Hi codas , has been as satisfactorily settled as it could he by the first kgal authority of the counter.. The Lord Chief Justice pronounced Mr. Cullen's to he a good vote, and that it ought not to hare been refused.. Air. Cullen then has gained his principal object, and has restored a very large body of bts fellow.ritir.-ns, who ' weer disfranchised at the last election of Westmlnster to the exercise of their rights. air. Morris's Counsel, air. Searlett, nnderstood very well the importance of this action, when he said. " if Messrs. Blackburn. and Evan's ()Ir. Culett's Counsel) Wproposition could prevail, the respe c table inhabitants of estminster wools! have no rights at all, and that is what is songht by this action—:hen the ret nr n of a mem ber for Westminster would depend un the will of the rahble, who would rome :0 vote at the next Westminster elerf ; hut any Learned Friend will, I think, be dr. reiveil it hr expects that he ran get your verdict, awl the sanction of any Judge in England (n Web I am sure hr never will) to the Moor; or he has laid down. If he cam sni-cred, not to the whole extent of his proposition, hut to an 'tart of it, he may walk over the emir.e at t h e acct election: lie need not trouble the Iligh liii:iff with r-,y of his 14w, for hr has the derisan in his favour." This is cry cheering- nice to the friends of reform In stniirster—for not only did the Connor! for Mr. Cul len sneered to " any part of his proposi.ion," Ent to the w 154.1. important extent—and if Mr. Sraylett . % co . oll in fart. " the. Ref waters may walk over the , eonry at the next election." The Learned Counsel's in 'err nee to * 1 the respect able inhabitants vieloling all their rights to Roe when translateorinto honest Knglish, merely means— that the art .too•rary will to longer have solavient power too r.otorn a 31rotolwr ford eanoimoer. when ail thole^ who were c tooled lov the at the late sob...

Dr. Dousex contended, upon the authority of several cases cited, that ;sere was au exprea misapplication and franoltdent concealment of the Christian natne. The lady was a minor of age of sixteen, and the marriage, which was by banns, was without the knowledge of her mother, end e-ly go otdian, a widow, Conni, it was eentendvd, this misapplication of the real orate was intro ic.l pea p_oselv to deceive. lie ronten :141, first, th it !Alla and Elisiateth were two different Set'JIIII!y, that Apoliannz should have been !vol. Sir W. SceTv.—Yon have told me that this person was commonly known by the name of " Apolianna, bot you don't ple.ol that. It seems very improbable that she should hair gone by, and been known by all these names, and nut a'4o by the name only of " Elizabeth fitty."— Now it cce.l upon the authority of Dr. Johnson (that great natter of the English language), that Eliza and Elizabeth were the same. [t l ere the Learned Judge quoted some lines from a poem of Dr. Johnson's, intitled "tondon, a Satire," conclnding thus—" Aliza and Eli zahetlo are one."] And next with respect to the name " Apolianna," Which Dr. Dodson contended was neces sary to he used. The Learned Judge facetiously ob served, it was a common thing with Roman Catholics to baptize their children by the name of some tutelar Saint, and it was extremely probable this name had been so given :—" Saint A polian isa" was no other than one of those tutelar, allegorical personages, who had the sove reign care and tualiag.!ment of human teeth ; but in this cwoutry it was not n common name; and therefore it wan very unlikely to have been the usual name of the party.
