LAW. --A PROFESSIONAL CONCERN to be DISPOSED OP. *boot 40 miters from London, by a Gentleman wishing to relinquish the same. At Apply by letter post-paid, to A.B. 17, Salsbury- Fleet-street. the witnesses who accompanied him bad been treated is a most improper mouser, and bad the doois shot in their feet A J an said, that was' before the instructions of the Magistrates bad been received by the Cormier. and that the witnesses consequently coild not be ad.' omitted. without refreshments, anti almost without air. He hod likewise heard that a Board was there sitting for tha purpose of examining them previous to their seeing the troops. Some of the Jurors loudly expressed their diaap probaties of any such plan, and seemed to adopt the opinion of Mr. Waithinan, that it would be usurping the power of the Jury, to exam's, their witnesses in as other place. Many were of opinion that the Jury ought to ac , company the Coroner to inquire into the state is which the witseeses were placed ; it was, however, at last de cided, that the Foreman should attend the Coroner for that purpose. After a few minutes absence, these Gentlemen re turned, and the Coroner stated that he had to eemmu nicate to the Jury, from the Commanding Officer, that the regiment would be drawn out, and the witnesses, one by one, would be admitted if they came within one heir. The Foreman said, that the instructions were no thing more than what bad boos agreed to yesterday, and that every body was previously 'Avails:ad with them. Mr. Sheriff Waithmaa declared that thit pre. sent proceedings were as great a violation and obstruction of justice as ever was witnessed in this' coontry. The conduct of the members of the Cloven:- mem, after t►e letter which had bees received from Mr. Habhouse, was in open violation of their ow■ so lemn engagement, and an insult to every one cos• cerned in the Was there to be such a difficulty to at chit soldiers for a purpose like that which -d flaw.? Why is each a country as be claimed as a matter of right that the regiment should be drawn up and examined is the eyes of the whole world. He hardly knew whether he was standing upon his head or his heels while such proceedings were going on; he knew not that•he iru on British ground, bat should rather suppohe he was in Turkey or Algiers. It remained for the Jury to summon the Adjutant of the regiment before them, and see if he would obey them. The "Walt AN stated, that having been deputed by the Jiry to accompany the Coroner, he felt It neces• eery to amitaint them that he had not been admitted. The CORON sa suggested that they bad better proceed to eiansiee the witnesses. Mr. Sheriff WAITHMAN repeated his assertion that there was a gross subversion of justice. The wit nesses bad seen losing their time iince two o'clock, and It was not uow likely that any of them could be found. The Forentan.--" Yes, and that we will dn." Mr. Sheriff Wa!theses proceeded. They were act ing in defiance alb, orders of Government in the. treating the witnesses. The Jury could, If they liked, call for the Muster Roll. or they might swear all their witnesses on the point of identity. and t!.as bring them under the description contained in the Ma gistrate's instructions. There would be no doubt or difficulty as to recognising the soldiers; the officer was recognised that day by several, in an instant. After again stating that he did not appear as a prosecutor, and repeating the alleged objects of his being present. the Sheriff concluded ; anti it was agreed to call wi:- Deists, and to examine them as to the firing, and their being able to identify the persons who fired. James Pl.nyer %cuss then ealled.—Saw the wan shot ; saw a person fire, and thinks he should know him again. 'Stood at the corner of Cumberland Gate ; taw the man drop, and saw the soldier fire : the person who fired was an officer ; the man fell eight or ten feet from Cumberland-street ; the officer stood two or three feet from the kennel. The FottestAN had seen two nitnesses when he went to the barracks, who were extremely angry at being confined, and seemed to blame the Jury for their being in their present situation. He hail, hoWever, assured them that the Jury were anxious fur their re lease. He really hoped that they would have their actions for Nile imprisonment. The examination of witnev4e. then pr veered. John Sander* lives at 235. Oxford-street—Was at Cnutberlatagate ; saw a matt lying on the ground, and went down with him to the drugpiat's shop, where he died ; did not tee any one tire who Lilted the man ; was told an Officer did it ; satrilte Officer afterwards and told him he shot the man, and the Officer cut him on the hat ; believes he should know the Officer again. A Witness here returned and stated that he had been refused admittance because the Coroner was not with him. Mr. Sheriff*AtTllMAN observed, that the Coroner's authority bad been set at nought,llll4lyet he had shown the greatest endurance under suffering of any man he ever saw in his life. Wm. Pinkerton, of Bayswater, grocer ► was at the left band corner of Cumberland (late; saw the officer Ire; did not se, the mom fall, bet heard that a an was dead, and afterwards saw the hotly. A condoned discussion here took p are, •ptfta the admisiilcilitt of OA witness. It was arranged that lie' ihGffithivstit data. /obi Certil Hires in the Atonality of Westminster; was at Comb-ria•d Bate. This ►►as all the watter•ol fact evidence that could be it fr►nt the witness, w o in spite of all that was solid to him; persisted in tell. log what others had sold hson. Mr. Sheriff Waithnsan cried ont to the man, " I don't want you to come here t• talk nun senor, I won't tribe with the Jury, if you will. You toi ay go abuts, your business." A Juryman complained of the time waited by the introduction of such witoes.es. The COROX Ell said there must be some mistake. Sheri .f WA! I 1131A,4" Really, Sir, you seem to put the most charitable construction upon every thing : ton exorcise the most Christian-like forbearance aud patience." The CoIiONEIR—•-•" Sir, 1 thank you ; I am sotry godlier Math the csronsont." (A laugh.) A cooversation agaTitirose as to the detention of the A JurYellen wisl;ed to have the advice of the Ca reen as to the manner in which they ought to act. The COROMKR.—" The hest advice I can give y lu is to act with as much temperance as you can." A Beadle, who hail been scot over with a witness to ask admission to the Barracks, returned, and said that they bad heen refused admission until six o'clock. Mr. Sheriff WAIVIMAN If you beer this Mr. Coroner, I can only say with Captain BobstlP, that "it is eutlcellin4 most laboriously laid on and must patiently bcrne." A long conversation here ensued upon a proposition fron► the Foreman, that some minutes should be in serted in their ptoceetlings of the causes of the delay which had taken place this afternoon. This was in terrupted by the Foreman reading a letter from a Mr. tleorge William Blessington, complaining that Mr. Deloraine Jo:tes, who was detained at the Barrack+, was in a state of ill health. Mr. Jones shortly after wards made his appearance with some other witnesses, one of whom stated that lie had been turned out of the Barracks is consequence of an exemi tuition which he had undergone. Mr. Jones examined by Mr. Sheriff Warrnstax.— I was summoned to attend here for the purpose of identifying the troops who fired at the place where the deceased was killed ; I attended between one and two, by a card signed by the Coroner ; after my ad mission I remained a short time in one of the court yards, an officer then came out, and desired every one to withdraw ; there were several other witnesses, and al gentlemen of the Jury, with Mr. Coroner ; I came oat and stood at the door a minute ; several gen tlemen of the Jury advised me to stay in the yard, but the officer insisted on my going out. After re maining outside the wall some time, a non-commis *Wiled officer came out, and asked for my card of ad mission ; he desired me to stay for a abort time an:l I should be admitted; I was admitted after, sad shown use° the barracks; the other witnesses were also ad mitted, one by one ; we were 'hewn into the room by a servant ; in going to this room I saw Mr. Birnie sod two other magistrates ; knowing Mr. Birute, I asked him if I was nailer his protection there. Be fore Mr. Ilirnie could answer me, an officer politely said that there was nu protection necessary, as every one who came there would be treated with the great est civi.ity and attention. After remaining three quarters of an hour in this place I asked to speak to Ns. Ilirnie. A soldi-r took the message. It is now sit, and at half-past four I saw Mr. Birak, of wbons I enquired why we were detained so long there. lie said be was very sorry, and that he would endeavour to get us to examine the troops as soon as possible. The roma we were in was small and very clime, and we were sot allowed to go near the door, the soldier preventing as; and 'betting the deer whoa any 'Seer passed. We were sot prisoners although a guard was at the door. *The soldiers were very polite le as. The Cosenza observed that this appeured to be very toned, as the witnesses went them to wheels the trove iseividwally,.aad not wises they were all .1* eourpsary.• Witness resented. The place where we were was Mr. Sheriff Wsithmas said, if witne•aes told him on• story out of doors, and another there be c►►ol.' not help it. Ht waa tletirmined not to trifle with the doer himself, add therefore the witness had been wi►h draw.. At this period, a witnmis. nanie.l Dean, entered the room, and desired to state to the Jury, as tenacious as be could, what he had met with§ at tio- lidrracke.— When be was admitted, he was shown with other wit-. nesses down some steps under groom& where they were made to wait, nod not allowed to go ewer. He had been afraid to go, because he sitsporte.l this vio lence ; and when he saw that the witnesses were in this room he did not go in, but wrist along► the pile up, and came out by another door. The Costoxan.—Well; we know all this. The wit nesses are detained until they are all ready. Mr. Sheriff WAIiNSIAN laid, that the conduct pur sued towards the witnesses was most abominable, and ought to be protested against by the Jury. The Fossil's.% stated that, for his own part, be would resent it loth* uttermost. r. Sheriff W A ITi }I A:4 proceeded to inveigh against what be termed this complete saiiversion of justice. The Couture ought to interfere, and he must scy he did not do his duty. The Curio! ea—" Sir, I desire yen to pursue a dif ferent line of conduct. I %%ill not allow you, Sir, to speak to me in that manner." The greatest confusion n iw took place, and several persons were speaking most vociferously at the same time. A witness named John Young was now brought for- ward, who with greavempbasi, began to dewclaw to the Jary that be had been turned oat of the Berrasks like a doe. It was iiimovered, however, that he hail nothing tusk with this Inquest. and .is evidence re., (erred to that sitting apon the holly of Francis. He was accordingly oismisstd. A Jurymen rose idealist the confusion whirls so frequently method the proceeding-, end lweing with some difficulty obtained a hearing, said that they hail heard many observations which he thought it would have been more to their credit not to have heard ; eider all the eireetoptustoes, both 'light the best mane they amid adopt was that of s.nding to the Com manding tHicer, requestissgthat the witnesses already therei might proceed to inspect Ile troops, and that they would be silifisient in number, for the purposes of justice.

ADJOURNED INQUEST ON TIIE BODY OF RICHARD HONEY. 11101:ItTII DAT. The Inquest being adjourned to the White Horse, Knightsbridge. and that house not being found suMel- eDhly large to the Jurv,it was farther ad- journed to the Rose and Crown, and subsequently to the Old King's head, opposite the Barracks. The regiment of Life °nerds were ready to turn out at 2 o'clock. when several of the witnesses n•ho had tickets presented themselves, but found they could not be ad mitted. At half-past Y the Jury assembled, and ac cording to their resolution of yesterday, they Lee proceeded to the barracks. They were, however, not admitted upon the parade, and in executing their orders to prevent all people from entering, the soldiers are said to have treated the Jury very unceremoniously. One gentleman was sttuck on the chin by a soldier. in consequence, we suppose. of some hesitation on the part of the former to comply with the Nitwit for 'retir ing. What'll, Coroner entered the ream, a Juryman rose, to protesl is the sweetest seviimargastthe treatnaitat which the Jury bad that day received. He hoped they would immediately notice this In the most pointed manner, before they proceeded ern any other basines. The Conn:van wAs not aware of any treatment. ex cepting that the Jury had not been admitted; tied they knew they should sot be yeiterday. A JUryman said, he thought knocking peopli down was rather harsh treatment. The CORONtR said; as to knocking dein, there had been no knocking down there, to his knowledge. A Juryman aflirme.l. that if it had not been for the people, he should have been down ttptin his back. Ile was pushed out, and struck thilently on the chin by a soldier. The Coroner then stated to them, Oat tie had re ceived a letter from Mr. Hobhouse. In reply to the las., addressed to hiM by the Jury, stating that he had laid the same before Lord Bathurst. who saw no reason for altering the directions which had been already given, relative to the inspection of the troops by the witnesses. His Lordship also smelted to the Jury, as the inquiry did nut appear likely to hi brought to an early close, that it might be better to postpone the attendance of witnesses, for the purpose of iden tifying the individuals, nail that period should ar rive: as it neither could be convenient nor proper to have the reglinent drawn out a second time for such intrection. The Foreman said he should recommend the Jury not to attend to anlr suggestions which came from such a quarter, which wodld not be comformable to their own convenience. as there appearild to be no dhe position in that quarter to give any etteeideration to the wishes etpressed by them. Throughout the proceedings of this day scarcely ten minutes elapsed together without a degree of confusion taking place, which defied all attempts at taking down the observations of the parties. It freqnently happened that half a dofen Jurors, and as many persons who *ere not Jurors, would be loudly talking at the same time, and making various pro positions; which met with no attention from any one but the speaker, and which appeared to be forgotten by him almost as soon as they were uttered. A discussion of this nature here ensued as to the man ner in which some of the witnesses were to present themselves for admittance to the barracks. One stated his reluctance to go, as he might be exposed to violence if unattended by the Jury to protect him Mr. Skeriff Waithemn exclaimed, that there was shameful obstructioaa, and that the witnesses and the Jury were grossly outraged. The Coroner then went over the barracks with the witnesses. Some of the latter shortly afterwarols re turned, and stated that they bad been refused admit tance mitts great rudeness. The Coroner had been admitted alone. After some further tim, had elapsed, the Coroner returned and informed the A tury, that he had seen the Magistrates, add they hatriald that the witnesses shunts! be admitted, fiat they considered nose to he witnesses who had no' t been sworn and examined before the Jury.
