This witness (who gave her evidence with much salasation and aeutewess), on her cross-esamination by Mr. TAUNTON, afforded the Court a considerable degree of mirth. She, as well as another witness, of the mew of Morris, said, they believed the band. writing of the litter was that of the Defendant.

One witness, Mrs. Cole, of Worces. ter, was called, with the latent of proving that the letter in question wet sent le a parcel to her. and tits' it was 'Armloads by bee pet in the Post. Office. M re . Cole first demanded her eapeners, bet It appear. log that she had received one guinea, factitive of her eapences to, sod whilst at; Shrewsbury, and that a chaise was at her service to go home, it was decided that she had had enough.

ALGust 14, ISM On the subject and importance of Rrroata, we have wo times more to fay than on the persons sod characters of the Reformers. Sorry should we be, that the success of the ;newest endeavour to possess this grand desideratum, depeoded upon the ability, the influence, t►e coortistency, or the reputation of soy man, or body of men, whatever. No; we rely as facts and circumstances more than on persons, for the accourplishlo; that Gwent, the attainment of which cosstiteies the greater or smaller vale, of the forties of the country, and the Bore or less of probability of Englishmen boding tbet heppioess and security which, es men, they are entitled to ender uheteter tom of Government they hays agreed to lire. When a ass of political sensibility, how. ever, complains of ea abridgment of hie social liberty by the Weeds of Ministers os the Consults tie., ►e is told by his insolent oppressor, that 66 if he is not contested with the liberties of kis owe country, he may go to another in search of more." Such an obsetvatioe is insolent to the highest degree. For &Appose no other country could be resorted to, where a greeter portion of liberty might he enjoyed, it is no bar to the complaiat of a Briton w►o might peasess• still greater portion of liberty &ban Ise \aldose, or than be does thee enjoy. A C overnmeet, if kgifi mete (a nd that term is become very fashionable, among Tories even), mast be formed, not only for the good of the People, bat also upon the WILL of the People. It implies, therefore, in common seine, that it shall dis pense the greatest amount of liberty possible to every individual entitled to citiseesblp, sod living seder it The philosopher any soy in parrot terms, " Übi tibc,iar, ibl Paris." Bat the inbabitaat of a free coquetry is not held obliged to go and seek where that liberty reigns, in eider to make it bin residence or resting place. No, be ins ■ right to den-ind it in the country where he was born ; it is so indefeasible and inalienable right, it is a rights million times pester than a heritable tight to a title or an estate: it is his birth-right, not as the son of this or that man, whether that man were rich as a lloet—powerfol as a CHAIrcELLOR—or loaded with titles es a Duke of NOMIUMICULASD: It is a title accompanying, and inseparable from, his coodities in the order and scale of satire ; in short, and le fact, it le his property by the promotion Biases of Mrot. The brats beast is so far below man that ►e is unconscious of any right, he is at the mercy of mites humanity, and those men sprach the veered in (istil to the bean who 'meld submit to the mercy, harmony, and clemency of their rulers, for such a portion of liberty es they Of trials would cx graliA dole oat to them. Let es thee not stop to easels' the wisdom, the espedleacy, the necessity of the peseta eademer to regale and mane liege liberties we base gredeally lost, by the isidelesce is ourselves, the misplaced COPIA/We ie Pew others, or the treachery, the venality of a 'Mid data •t sea ; but, tame all, by the self•ioterert sad en• bides of somber, though fewer in somber yet more 'powerful in elect; but go on to assert and urge what it last, after all trials, constitutes the justice of every claim end proceeding to establish it—TUE RIGHT. It is the right whic► jestilies lho act to obtain the ob. jut. As isdividual may, nevertheless, debate with himself the prudence of the pursuit, by comparing 'the value of what he shall gaits with what he has lost, l ow may farther low; bet the justice is nevertheless equally ea his side who contends for the prise; sad should beeves detersiss wit►in himself sot to tippetr in the Forum, Islarket-plece, or Camp, to amen his claim, whether from impotency, immure, or cowardice, he is is the wrong if he lakes measures to discourage his neighbour by his temple or his pre. rept, from taking • more rational, a more honour. able, and courageous course of conduct : because, however he may be disposed, ham baseness, to forego his own enjo)meot of political freedom, it is onlessfel in him to take any step which may deprive his posterity of Its rightful po ion.— No individual can do mere then lose his life.intercet in the estate of natural freedom. If lie should have for. feited or lost his r.•ire In the great Council chews for upholding and maintaining that freedom, by vice or idiotism, that ought not, it rennet, debar his progeny from their claim. Let us be PO longer dinned, then, with the private characters of the persons standing forward in oscine the popnlarohe din e, cause. If their reputations are eaceptionable, why do not men of mete esteemed characters prominently take their stand, and show themselves equally the Friends of the People? To say that such and such men are ens orthy to be listened to,eed yet keep silence il,emweles (contrary to C.eret's advice and his stow of the obligation) is a dereliction of their ono duty; if not a led hypocrisy sod dishonesty. It is double dealing : which has always the countenance of freed, and when disc overed, is never to be for gives), whether in private or in public concerns. No doubt there ere stony characters who have taken post is this incipient struggle against whom much may be said, bet they cannot jestly be abused as cowards, and that is something "isles( their peccadillos, faults, or vices. " Cowards are trail s but tho brave Love enercy, awl delight kr save?'

Such mon sters shall have no quarter whenever we come to close combet with them (open fair combat we mean).

Fatted of • letter. dated Cadiz, July 49 : " °llse lam affair at l'ort St. Mary's still remains entrolope.l in a great deal of mystery. Otte of the principal actors in it was • Colonel of Artillery. — The infection only appears, however, to haws ex. tended to one division, as no officers of the other corps have been ted. As I before stated so you, every body believed 0' DONN EL was deep in the plot, and nobody can account fur his so suddettly thong. inn sides. The conduct of some other officers of high rank Is equally inexplicable. Some people Wok it has been ail got up in order to tire to the world some sort of plea for the outs-sailiog of oho grand expedition so long boasted of ; for if it had been laid aside without some coup &ad, Franc. a.txo's Government world not only Lama bees laughed at bet also despised. Three thousand men have been got off to join filoatxxo, and this f as pect will prove the utmost stretch f o r the present, se the Adrninstratioo may now place all their lament* mimic's to the mow of profit and loss. The grand expedition is certainly knocked on the heed, end if the Guerilla parties now forming in various parts of the interior, do not gain an shoaling ascendency, the most that will be made available from it will be a Lew meta small detachments that will sail for the nearest pelts of America. At all events, till the late affair has been fully investigated, the King oil , come to no detarmaties on the soh. jest. He is the most sangsiao and the least in clined to desist, but possibly ere this be may be a little undeceived. A large ship, called the Al. tides, lately reached here from Lima, bet I do not see that her arrival has tended to brighten the coon. reliance of any one. Site brought dispatches from the Viceroy, but of comma their real contents sill only be knows at the Secretary of State. office.— The Asia, 74, has also arrived from Vera Curs, and last from Ils.-nnah, with a considerable sera in specie on board ; also a large merchant ship with a valuable cargo from Lima, at Cantons. Reports say that aro has been a 'mated at Valencia, but I cannot vouch for the fact." We received a Dutch Mail yesterday, bringing Papers to the 11th instant. An article from Brussels states that several young Germans of cord family had arrived in that city, having quitted their native coun try in consequence of the masons lately adopted with respect to the Universities. The King of I'ill3lll\ returned to Berlin es the 31 lastest. Eatrect of a letter dated Barbadoes, June 44: " The non-intetcoarse with America produces no in convettieoce is our colonies in general ; and this islandort least, is perfectly indepeudeot of the Gaited States. 'rho intercourse with Witith America is es. tensive and beneficial to us ; that wilt Berserk is growing fast, and I. have never kao•n the island in greater prosperity.

If this enrol use insured in England, it is to he hoped the under writers were apprised of the circumstance." The following is en Extract of a Letter furs Jr. main :—" I was at Cape Henry for a few days. It is scarcely to be believed to what a state of system, order, regolarity, and civilization these rept, hags arrived.
