The prisoners were arraigned here to-day. Mr. Ssvoronn, as their Counsel, objected to the verdict of ri, e brand Jury on two grounds That a person bad served as a tirand Juror who was not legally sounded; . 2411 v. That two persons had been enclosed with the ti-awl who had no right to be there. That the two persons to whom he alluded were the clerk of the arr.Ogits, and a gentleman connected with the prosecu tion ; and he stated, that The verdict of the Jnry was not of the hand-writing of the foreman. Theft rat objection was repelled, in respect the Counsel for the prisoners sva. not prepared to verify it by an affidavit ; the second 4 0 Jectiost excited a good deal of discussion,_ the Counsel tor the Crown contending that it contained the most Kroll insinuation against the administration of justice; and such as might be productive of the most nosebiev tot. effects. Hr answered, that the Clerk of Court. and the Counsel, or agent, for the prosecution, were entitled tic miiit the Urania Jury in examining the witnesses, and that it was untrue that any person had intermixed in consultation with the (hand Jury after the witnesses were examined, and he produced the sertlirt showing th , it it was written by the foreman. He was determines' that the objection should not pass without farther inquiry, and he therefore insisted that the Counsel fur the pri• should state his objection in the form of an affida vit. su that the assertions, which in feet were, that the Jury lead been tampered with, might, if untrue, beam& tlrr ground of farther proceedings elsewhere.

The legal arguments and ob jections of Counsel on either side it would also be impro per to publish. as those objections would relate to the ad mission of particular descriptions of evidence, and to the facts attempted to be substantiated by such evidence.

His efforts were unsnrcessfisl; they were resulted to commemorate the " glorious day,' and all that they would concede was, that their mystic etio : talcum of leopards' skims, lambs, hosts, and mitres, should nut be again exhibited. Accordingly, on Wednesday, the 112. th inst. these r.erlosirr imppertei• : of " Protestant Anomie'!miry" tort at the York lintel, I decimated with orange sashes, ribbons, roses, &e., bearing three silk Wieners, with mottoes and desires, and about ten A.

Unfortunately, at the end of Rich eeeee ntl-street, a battle commenced, in which two or three persons, we hear, were severely wounded. The initneoliate rause of the quarrel we have not been able with certainty to ascertain; lint we learn that it arose from the intederenre of a few of the soldiers of the 44th, or Connaught Rangers, who were passing through that street, observing one or two of their rep moot in the procession, whom they endeavoured to prevent marching in it. The greater part of the sol diers of tleik regiment, we uoderstand, are Catholics, who have gallantly fought the battles of their coon try, in the Peninstila and different other parts of the Continent. and naturally felt mortified at witness ing an exhibition so offensive to their religious preju dices. When the fight began, an alarm was immediately spread through that part of the town, and a great por tion of the sloops of the inhabitants of Whitechapel. Lord-street, Dale -street, &c., were closed, and hnsiness completely suspended. After divine service, the I /range men made another display, and marched through Tarleton-street, and Clayton-ignore, and Lack to the York Hotel. Daring this route, numer ous lights took place: inolividaal efforts were made to seise their flags, without success; the wen just returned fr e prayer showed that sighting was not incompatible with their piety, for their truncheons and sticks were laid without merry upon their opponents.

HAYTI, 1.14.--The Insurrection under Count (lowan. one of Uhristoplie's Nobles, which so long drop- Med that fair portion of the Republic of Hayti is finally reduced. This insurrection, which broke out in 1t.4117, iminediatcly after the destruction of the soi-dinar Em peror Dessalinrs, was undertaken by his partisans to avenge his death, and persevered in with unabated fury. It ,produced a powerful diversion in favour of Christoplic, who succoured it from tiwe to time with such means as he could spare from his own imme diate defence ; and the numerous expeditions sent against it by the late President (Petion), had, from various causes, failed of success: and, in the conrse of its ravages, not a village or sea-port, en a roast of 69 leagues extent, had escaped the pil lages of the brigands; but the firmness of the peaceable inhabitants, aided by the powerful means of the Pre sident (Boyer), has at length put an end to this insur rection. It is an awful sight to observe the exposure tki the heads of sixteen of the ringleaders of the insur rection, placed on pikes in a public part of the town of Jeretnie.

After the discussion expected this evening in the Douse of Commons, on the property withheld from the QU►:r:s. it is not probable that any fresh question will be agitated in Parliament, respecting her 31.wurs•' vy's affairs, till the meeting this day month. To this interval her prosecutors look forward, with the hope that th e .iaspension of the proceedings will abates the fs rvour of the public mind in her behalf, and that some ocenrrenee may take place which they may turn to their advantage. It is evident, from the railings of their agents, in the journals devote►l to their support, that they are sensibly alive to the obloquy they have incurred by their proceedings : and it is equally evident that the manifestations of public opinion, whirls their conduct has provoked, are absolutely necessary to keep their perstectting spirit within the Wounds of dereney.

This eunti. &nee, on our part, may be reckoned prejudice: but to what shall we impute the sentiment of the majority that appeared on the division of Friday Does it pro reed from abstract and enlightened principles ofjustice? Does it evince liberality or candour? Does it satisfy an y h oli est mind that it arises from any other than a predetermined and unfriendly spirit? The prejudice we entertain, in common with the public, proceeds fruo► the result of the former trials the character of her 3I itreeTT has undergone, from the prosecutions she hail endured, and the triumphs she has obtained : and I the evidence that has been Irises of a con tinuance of the tame peraecnting spirit, various and vacillating in its modes, yet unrelenting in its de sign. It is this spirit which the people observe, and against which they are indignant. It is thb which provokes them in public and in private to express their sentiments with an ardour and an aim , daily seldom witnessed; lb her MAJRITT . O behalf. They hilly feel the fume and value of her blaJassi'S appeal to their protection, and the ineetioppi they are daily eonvoking they esteem expedient, to balance the hostility they perceive. In this determination it is much to be desired that they persevere. The fake of public sentiment cannot fail at last to have its proper weight, and the persons who sit in judgment on the charges against the fleets, whatever be their preju dices, cannot but be sensible, in the interim, that in deciding upon the character of her 31a.nart, they deride upon their own. Ever since the commencement of the present proceed ings against her Jl.%Jesre, the conviction of her inno cence has been taking a firmer hold of the public mind ; and we enarsafely assert that there is not an independent person in the country that does not warmly sympathise in her sufferings, and as cordially detest her accusers. It is plain the public have no other interest in this ques tion, but such as the desire to see justice fairly adminis tered inspires. It would he absurd to ascribe to factious motives, and still snore ridicuhots to trace to levelling principles. the burst of national feeling, which this question has elicited.
