I I I A t, • LIBERTY OP THE PRESS. (Concluded frau" oar Paper of yesterday..) • The question deco mei sfill more critical, when it is considered that a tribunal cannot, like the political cen sor. consider each single case acconling to its peculiar iscutostances ; (which are often only. known to the totter) ; but, in all investigatimis, looks tio the establish ment of general principles and fixed rules. Heuer, in• times when prueecutions for offencesof the Press accumu late, a Court, which has acquitted or condemned two ur thee* writings of a certain tone or character, cannot hesitate, likewise, to acquit or condemn allsimilar pub lications. Thus a systematic course of proceeding is adopted, which places the tribunal in constant opposi either with the government or with the public.— Theme alternatives must. however, he equally prejudicial. In the one case the government, being impeached by the tribiseal, will appear in an °thousand inimical piiint of view ; in the other, the tribunal will be regarded as an abject and blind instrument of power. The consequence of such a state of things must unavoidably be, that the judges lose, without redemption, all their independence and dignity—whether iodating in reality or in opinion— along with the respect, the favour, and the confidence of the better part of the nation. • To obviate souse of these objections, it has been pro posed, in lieu of the ordinary Courts of Justi-e, to ap oint for the trial of publications, prosecuted the suit 41 the Crown, a particular tribunal, compose., of legal Judges, political assessors, and a certain number of men I.f experience, distinguished for their cultivated know ledge and learuing. But such an authority would no longer be a tribunal, but as extraordinary commission, us Lich winsid very insufficiently and insecurely supple the place of a real Court of Justice. 11'hatever such a con.mission, on the one hand, might gain, through the niftier of its composition, in ability and fitness for judg ing, it would lose tenfold, on the other, in indepetithuce, weight, and public confidence. .1 much better remedy is afforded loyolie arrangement at present existing in England : whereby, in rases of libel, the judicial authority is, as it were, divided into two separate portions; one of which, the bench oil Judges merely superintends the process, and pronounces • the final judgment : whilst the other, the Jury, derides on the wain question of the guilt or innocence of the _defrudant. 11 e are, however, far from perceiving in ! this method that degree of perf e cti o n w hi c h has bees haply ascribed to it, in France, by several men, in other inspects highly intelligent. We are rather of lyinien that, for pronouncing judgment on political writings, a Jury is, in fact, an authority infinitely less competent th..n the members of a Court of Justice. lint as, se- I cording to the foregoing observations, the sentence of no Judicial authority, on anion of the press, can be entirely cteitipt Irma the suspicion or the appearance of arbitrary dreisimi and partiality, we conceive it to ' be, beyond all contradiction, better that this suspicion vr appearance should attach to a selection t the .people than to the Judges. For this very reason, in ountries where such forms already exist, or are comps- Ode with criminal proceedings, we should prefer the . Jury, with all its deficiencies and dangers, to the 'eels-' sire responsibility of the Judge, which we regard as the greater evil of the two. We shall now enter into an historical explanation of , the manner in which the power of the British Jury, io . actioas for libel, has attained its present roneistency, and what, under its authority, the freedom of the press in England leas become. After the abolition of a preliminary censorship in that c.rintry, offences of the came within the ordinary er,mninal jurisdiction. press England no criminal pro -1-..5. is carried un the intervention of the Jury, it naturally found its place in trials for libel. But. in actions of this kind, the power of the Jury was notch more limited than in any other process, until at the ckme of the eighteenth century, when the sphere of that oestitution was materially extended. We t better lieeerihe the state of Juries before that period than by the following words of Mr. Burke, spoken in favour of extending the power of Juries, in one of the first Portia tnentary Debates that took place on time subject 61 It is the very ancient privilege of the people of riigland, that they shall be tried, except in the known seeptioes, not by Judges appointed by the Crown, but I.v their own fellow-subjects—the Peers of that County Mart at which they ()we their snit end serrisse; and out ~f this principle the Trial by Amy has grown. This inciple has not, that I can hail, been contested in any ..,se, by any authority whatsoever; but there is one case 1%1 which, without directly contesting the principle, the whole substance, energy, and virtue of the privilege is ‘Leti out of it : that is, in the case of a trial by indict ( .rot ur information for a libel. The doctrine, in that .1 4 1% laid down by I Judges, amounts to this: teat the Jury have no competence where a libel is al -1••,:rel, except to 6nd the gross corporeal facts of the i. toting and publication, together with the identity of the things and persons to which it refers; but that the intent and tendency of the work, in which intent and t-miency the whole criminality consists, is the sole and veclusive province of the Judge. 'rims having reduced Cie Jury to the cognisance of facts, not in themselves presumptively criminal, but actions neutral and indiffe rent, the whole matter, in which the subject has any concern or interest, is taken out of the [sands of the Jury; and if the Jury take more epos themselves, what they so take, is contrary to their duty; it is no moral, Lot a merely natural power : the same by which they may do any other improper act; the same by which they may even prejudice themselves with regard to any part of the issue before them. Such is the matter as it now viols, in possession of your highest criminal Courts; I .nded down to them from very respectable legal an- C: slurs." During the first eighty years after the abolition of the censorship, originally exercised by the Star Chamber. :•n•i afterwards by a Parliamentary Commission, the fruition of the powers of Juries, se actions for libel, pears to have been very seldom, or not at all, agi tated. There exists, indeed, scarcely any traces, either is.dicial or extra-judicial, of the discussion of this ques tion. But though the boundary line between the pro s ince of the Court and the Jury was then determined be an law, a long usage, uninterrupted and, until the sear 1770, undisputed, had sanctioned the rule—that the Jnry could only decide on the fact Of the publiew lion, and that every thing else was to be kft In the Judge. All the legal and judicial authorities, free Sir John Holt, the first Chief Justice after the Revolution at 1689, down to Lord llansiebi, had constantly earl Mete (lily maintained this rule. Early in the reign of (horse 111. the first publicatinte of an offensive political paper !meanie the occasion of eery memorable proceediari and violent commotions in the country. John Wilkes, a Member of the House of Cosninons, a man of euodesate talents, very restless spirit, and little respectability as to moral clic:aster, in ft:stony-fifth number of * periodic,' work, which he published ander the title el l'Ae Aosta Britt*. dared to make a most indecent attach on the king. sad charged several passages of a speech delivered from the 'llirooe to Parliament with falsehood. or this of enee he was arrested by order of the fietretary of State, and %est to the Tower. In the course of a few•daya he Was, however, brought up, by writ of hibeas corpse, to the 'Dort Of Common Pleas, and,(3llequati . ee Pratt (niter wards Lord Camden)) set him at o n . the ground that ihe privilege of Parliamentarm*NOM is hisperma. ~, TEI This affair being brought belhre the House of ['om inous in November, 1743. by a Message front the King, the forty-fifth number of Tie North Briton was, after warm debates, declared by a great majority a scan dalous and seditious libel, and was ordered to be burnt by the hand (lithe common hangman. In the Address, voted do this occasion to the King. the Commons for :n*4ly recognized the principle, that " the pris Hear of a Member of Parliament did not extend to the right of publishing libels;" and the Peers concurred in this Address. This proceeding was the more remarkable, as there is scarcely another example in modern British history of • Parliament haring adopted, or even rnnn tenanced, any resolution tending to deteriorate their own privileges. 'the burning of The North Brigitte oc casioned a dangerous riot in London. Wilkes brought an action against the Secretary of State for illegal and arbitrary imprisonment ; and. notwithstanding the de cision of Parliament, obtained a verdict of 1,000/. da mages. He then fled to France ; and the House of Commons, after summoning him to give an account of his conduct in January, 176-1, expelled hint from his seat, on the ground of his being the author and pub li.hcr of a libel. This Resolution was, from the un foreseen consequences which attended it, and the severe strut files of parties which it produced, a sourer of great venation to England. It had, however, no immediate influence on the usual course of proceeding in actions for lid rl ;as the quest' —the libellous character of The North Briton—was not then made the subject of investigation before any tribunal, but was decided by the authority of Parliament. INSURRECTION IN SPAIN. PCOCLAMATION Or THE CO3ISIANTIONI Of THE NATIONAL, TO TII IMIDUE OF Mt SPAYISU Allll%. CossevatuNa!—The Spanish military have always been relebiated for their valour, fidelity, and EIJPI4.IIIIy under hardships; its short, for all the virtues which cha racterise warriors and heroes.

Let us, in short, secure to it civil liberty, and our country will be indebted to us for the greatest of all earthly benefits.

ILMIALL.—A frosh-Tooling young uses, mimed Thomas Edwards, was brought before the Sitting Ma gistrate, on a charge of being found in a state of va grancy. Hirisfield, the officer, stated that on the previous night he accompanied two Gentlemen of the Committee of the Institution for the refuge of the Mastless, its London wall, to search the streets for the purpose of ascertaining whether any, or what number, of poor persons who had received relief from the Institution were about in the streets. In the Course of their search they found the prisoner lying asleep, half frozen, in Fleet-market. This statement was corroborated by one of the Gentlemen of the Committee. Inquiry having been made into the rich and settlement of the vagrant, who appeared to are had a great disinclination to laborinns employment, the Magistrates ordered him to be sent to liridewell for seven days, and from thence passed home to his' parish. We are informed. that so great are the wishes of the Committee of the London-wall Institution so relieve the sofferittes of those miserable wanderers. that the City is pm-I:wird out in districts, which are baited nightly by one or more gentlemen of the Committee, who relieve those whom they consider as lit objects, and cause the more confirmed vagrants to be apprehended and taken before a Magistrate to be dealt with as he should think proper.

Evidence was alldurp I to prove that a person, very nearly resem bling the prisoner, was one of the four persons who took places in the roach on the night of the rob bery, and also that he was seen in the company of other gavelled persons, in Bristol. about the same time.

He was asked on what day his wife died, and h. teswerell, on the 20 of January ; but one of the nit nesites, who professed an intimate knowledge of Ilk do tneqie affairs, swore that she died several days before. It was stated that other evidence would be ready no a future day ; and the prisoner was demanded for re examination.
