Extract from the Tobago Gazette, November fish : We are informed by a gentleman lately from St. Bar tholomew that the .Ikmerican privateers acting wader the flag and. commission of thmeral Artigas bail of late sent several prises to the %inhabited places in its neighbourhood. 'Phis Oentleman remained on the Island but three weeks, and during that period there arrived 7 fine brigs and a ship of abont 600 tons; their cargoes consisted of sug ar, cocoa, co ff ee, raw hides, tobacco, port wine an d ' provisions. Some of these vessels were taken on the homeward, others on the outward voyages. The Captains of these privateers require no Court for condemnation. As Captains' they are sole Judges. They send their prises to some solitary Islands, most commonly called the Five Islands, whence, they ship their cargoes into small vessels for St. Bartholomew's. The Oporto Parrs, which have arrived to the Vith ult. make no mention of any earthquake having hap pened there; but state, what we anticipated occa sioned the mistaken rumour, an extraordinary over flow of the river Douro, which caused immense damage to the neighbourhood. Several vessels were driven from their moorings, carried down the stream and up set or run aground. Estract of a letter dated Templet:lore Barracks, Feb. 4 :--A 6 Yesterday an affray, or Irish row, took place. which put our men upon their mettle. An officer, with a sergeant, corporal, and twelve men, west Dot to seise a still about four miles from Rosette. They wage their seizure good ; but, on their nitwit, were attacked when enteriug a gate in a narrow defile by about four or Live handred ragged ruffians, who were waiting is ambuscade be our party. 1 hey tended so suddenly upon oar men that seven of them were pinioned. and their arms were taken from them ht a trice ; but the sergeant, a gallant stout fellow, altheagh ram tbroegh the lungs by a bayonet, and having a Lager shot off, rallied with his seven remain ing firelocks, and completely beat the assailable off the field, leaving four killed and nineteen wounded -- This was not achieved without several of our men be ing wounded severely, but none I hope mortally.

LAW REPORT. • COURT Of KING'S BENCH.—Titslosmuto. Tilt RING r. HARPER, EDWARDS, AND OTHER', This was a rule calling o:► the defendants to show cantle wior a criminal information should not be filed against them for the writing and circulating certain plarards, in the t.a•n of Sitifrnall, Hbelntl the charac 'ter of Mr. Drown, at) Attorney of that town. Mr. ScAnt.e.r . r, on the part of Mr. Harper, sheaved rime al...rhino the rule, and contended that his client Lad cleared himself of the charge by his affidavit that be was not the writer nor publisher of the papers in question. Mr. Jearts skewed cause against the rule, on the part of Mr: Edwards, clerk to Mr. Harper who denied that lie bad contributed to the circulation of the alledged libels, except by copying one.of them, which fell In his way, as a good joke. Mr. Cararnet.t. on the part of the same defendant, Contended that his client had completely cleared him self from the charge of any criminal participation in the aence. Mr. Eraser-v., in behalf of Mr. Rudman, a grocer of the town, als o ' shelved cause *spinst the nth.. liis client had received a packet of the placards by the stage-coach, for which he paid eight-pence, and on opening it awl perceiving the nature of its contents, said he wished he had his money back, and that peo ple would not trouble him with such fooleries. He tut them all into spreads, except three, and wrapped theni round his soap and candles. He swore that he had nu previous expectati on of receiving such *parcel. Mr. Pr antiox on the other side, said that it was not only on one occasion, bat on many, and for a long time, that these libels, against Mr. Brown and his clerks, .had been circulated. 't hey were in the form of pre tended play-bills, in which those gentlemen were held up to einitempt and ridicule. he asserted that Mr. Harper hail not denied his privity to their manufacture. Mr. JERVIS read Mr. flarper's affidavit. 'I he Court asked if the defendants yi ere willing to pay the costs of this application. After some discussion the Court ordered the rule to hr discherged on payment of costs, or made absolute, as the defendants' pleased. KINn r. s ?JUICE WRARG Mr. et tax prayed the Judgment of the Court on the defendant who was found guilty, at the last War wick Assizes of selling the ninth natnber of the Re publican. Mr. Juatice BEST read the indictment. The defendant put in an affidavit, in which he stated that he believed that his punishment had been in creased, when lie received sentence on a former occa sion, fur a similar offen..e, by its having been then charger{ against him that there was another prosecu tion pending against him. Mr. DENMAN addressed the Court, in mitigation of punishment. Mr. CLARKS, and Mr. RF.ADEIR replied. • Mr. Justice H.t LET in passing sentence, said thei Court looked essipait the offence before it. 'the 'en; pence of the Court was, that the defendant should be imprisoned, for twelve mouths, in the Homiest, Cor rection in Cold-bath-fields. • • • • e Vie SINS r. SIR Waal avitorre, Sal?. (Concluded from our paper of yesterday.) After Mr. Denman bad contended, with powerful and impressive eloquence, that whatever exception might he taken to the lisnauage of the alleged libel, the senti ments and feelings of it were such, as caine with pees liar propriety from the Honourable Baronet, who, as a Representative of the great city of Westminster, had as imperious call upon him in that character to avow his sense of a tratis.iction, which even yet was not placed in a light calculated to abate the feelings of his Ho nourable mind. Mr. PHILLIPS, Mr. BLACKBURN, and Mr. EVANS, fol lowed on the same side. The Arruesev-llENartat. commenced his address to the Court by denying all personal feeling in the tptestion before the Court. The Learned Gentleman, after the affidavits which hail been put in, could have no doubt as to the motives by which the lion. defendant had been influenced; but it was the effect of a libel, ra ther than the intention, which shouldj be looke d at by the Court. It was said ' that the letter it; question bad been writteu in iriste ; but it appeared, from the very document itself, that the defenda nt, while be wrote it, anticipated rosecution ; and the subsequent letter to Lord Siiimou p th —moat honourable to the defendant as exonerating other parties—neither excused nor retracted a single expression which the defendant bad awl in his letter to the electors. The case at all times was fully before the Court; the Attorney-!general had the fullest reliance upon their Lordships, and asked for no vindic tive judgment. The, Solacrroallasanat declined to offer any obser rations. The Learnst Judges then conferred for about half an hour; when, Sir Francis Burdett, surrounded by his friend., having taken his station upon the floor. Mr. Justice ilatteY delivered the Judgment of the Bench. It -was his painful duty, his Lordship said, in the situation which he tilled, to pass upon the defendant the collective jndament of the Court. It had happened, in the course of the proceedings in the cause, that Isis Lordship hail aliKeratal in *pieties -fees" Joh;Lasseeterlt Brothers; and to that difference allusion hail been made. The difference, however, had merely occurred upon a technical point—whether there had' or had not been against the defendant sufficient evidence of a publieatirin in Leicestershire—and it now appeared to the Learned Judge that, even if a new trial in Leicestershire had been granted, publication in that county would easily have been proved, because lie (the Learned Judge) was in clined to hold that the (imitation in that county of any nen spaper in which the insertion of the libel bad been antliorixeil by the defendant would amount to retake lion in that county. That the defendant was the author of the libel stood admitted; and, in forming aksdantent upon the charaater of the offence. it became material to look at the state of the public mind at the time wlsen the libel had been published. The letter was founded — it purported upon the face of it to be founded—upon facts of whirls Sir F. Burdett was ignorant, except from the representations contained in certain newspapers. I Those representations were certainly calculated to ex cite the highest degree of feeling in the public mind, be cause there was a very broad and strong insinuation that needless violence hail been resorted to :—the Learned Judge could not blame any man for having Isis feelings roused by a perusal of the statements which those news parrs contained. It was no part of his Lordship's duty to take whether those statements were entree s o r not; Ist ad no means of judging ; and it was the ditty of a Court of Justice to act upon these facts, and upon those facia only, on which they were capable of forming a ju dicial opinion. From the nature, however, of the facts atatad, is a country like Enghted, where the poor mire- Amaral from the laws of their country the same prate.- seas the rich, sad where an ostrage of the lowest he divimisil embed ilha helignatiita of the whole roosesestity' Itreeidd not be desisted that the fleet et ski stalemate t ■ , . • __ _- must have been to tulle' veyy totlifderable A t . • that time,. and .11011 thole stateMeitt It defendant's letter had appeared.; mud the ' Judge's objection* to that letter .wens four ia • pasr, . her.
