a rape against him. Sarah Cortefrold a similar tale to that of her brother, the prosecutor. After which the Judge asked the Prisoner what he could say for him self; the prisoner in a composed and respectful manner said, "I know nothing of this case, my Lord ; but I have no donbt that before this trial is finished, it will be proved to the satisfaction of the Court, that the Defend ant ought to be the Prosecutor, and the Prosecutor the Defendant. Edward Farmer, of Belton, was at Kidderminster market on the day of the robbery, and on his return home, found the prisoner (his brother-in-law) at his house; received from him 121. for sour; and his cash book, and a receipt were produced to prove this transac tion. Mr. Farmer's servant confirmed this evidence. John Wall, maltsman to Prisoner, lived with him in September last, and perfectly recollects his master going out. Question by Mr. Corbet. " Well, Sir, your master went out on horseback, did he?" " Na, Sir, be did na, he went out on his mare." Well, Sir, you eat op to let him in ?" " Yem, Sir, I did." " Play now, how came the girl who you just now told an was in bed with her mionen, to open the door?" "Jest because I fell sound asleep." Well, Sir, and when did you see your master?"— " Why, I did not see measter at all till I fell plump against him in the passage as he was coming " Pray where were the rest of the family at this time all asleep, 1 suppose ?" " I coons just rightly say if they won all asleep, they war all a bed. " Well, Sir, you say the family were all in their beds?" Whv, I don't tightly know ; I did not go up to see, bat they were all up stairs." [This man's evidence went to prove that his master came home at ten o'clock, and that his horse was quite cool.J—The same witness said benne Garbet (prosecutor) some time after, and he (6arbet) promised that be would, the next time be met my master, give him one of the best linings he had ever had in his life, and gave as his reason that prisoner induced prose tutor's landlord to distrain for rent. Three other ser vants corroborated these facts. Amy Lane stated that the prosecutor told her in eon : veraat:on that lie would be revenged on the prisoner if it co't ti 4001. Wil'imin Middleton stated, that lie heard prosecutor say, " I'll do Benton some way,"—and that be would go to Slirewsbory and try to get a bill from the 0 Joey respecting the oats; and that the prosecutor'i vsoit girl added, if that did not do, she would mee prosecutor, and swear a rape against him. Elizabeth Sinallman deposea that she met prom at Slirewibury March Assizes, where her husband tried for horse stealing; and that prosecutor proinifelt to get her husband acquitted by giving him a character, if slie would swear she saw the prisoner gallopping be tween Litton and Stotesden on the night of the rob bery. and swears she saw him help the oats on a man's shoulder. The ker. Mr. Wood, a magistrate of Stotesden, and three others, gave the prisoner a character as a perfectly honest and just wan. The Judge summed up, and the J•iry acquitted the prisoner, much to the satisfaction of Lis Lordship, and avid loud approbation in the court.

Thy invirrection was suppressed, and the leaders punish. e I ; lord it is said, that some days after, the garrison being informed of the state of the Peninsula, began to manifest symptoms of discontent. In consequence of this disposition to niu , iny, the Governor put under arrest General Joseph O'Donnel, General Joachim) Ibarba, and Brigadiers P. Gaztelu and J. L reorda, officers who had been transported from Valencia, for opposing the execu tion of Elio. They were embarked for Gibraltar, whet, they lied arrived. It is farther stJted, that - a firing of c non and II:oak-try was heard during the night of the thl and the morning of the 3d. and that it was conjec-1 tured the French sq9adron would proceed to Ceuta. 'flue Madrid Gazette also givesan account of a corre spondence between General Riego and the Ministry atl Cadiz. The General refused the appointment of second in command of the army of Andalusia, but offered to traverse the provincrs of the Peninsula. and rouse the public feeling, if lie were supplied with 1,500 infantry, :!00 cavalry, and 1e0,009 piasters. This proposition was refused. The Deputy Moreno-Ouerra has published reasons for resigning his functions. He says, according to the Gazette, " that after having witnessed the failure of all his efforts for re-establishing the Ministry of Flores- Esti add and his colleagues, the only legitimate adminis. t ration. and knowing that he himself is persecuted by the liberticide faction older) governs Cadiz, he quits that land so worthy of a better fate But he announces that he will not yet abandon Spain. The only means (he adds) of saving Cadiz, would have been to Eire General Itiego the chief command of the army of Andalusia ; but Cadiz confined to its own defence must fall."

The Lieu tenant-General commending, ad interim, the Army of Ope rations, this morning attacked the enemy much beyond the bridge of Molinos del Rey, and having succeeded in draw ing hint from positions which he intrepidly attacked, he was twice repulsed and obliged to fall back, leaving the field and the bridge covered with killed and wounded ; the third attack was uo less fatal to him ; but our valiant troops, wearied by so mach slaughter, retired from thotroosltion to p«rfeet order. " The attack, directed by Lieutenant-General Uoberas. much beyond the positions of Monorail, had the same r suit. The enemy twice endeavoured to !wake himselfmaster of them, and was both times repulsed by our musketry and grope-shot : his loss is incalculable; death and terror pre vai.ed in his ranks. Our troops, wearied. and filled with horror at such slaughter, followed the movement of the other divisions, retiring in the greatest order. • The troops of the garrison, which supported and aided the exertions of the A►my of Operstkroavallatitly attaching the slaves OD the side of Espalgas, and skiving them from their positions, ha% a covered themselves with glory. The enemy lost in this memorable attack SW killed, and above 2,000 wounded: our position did not permit as to mice advantage of the confusion which prevailed in the enemy's rants during the attack to make some hundred pri soners.

We have this morning recei►ed by Express, Paris pa. pars, of Saturday and yesterday morning. The Mosti- Elocksistif The Lisbon and Flanders Mails which have arrived this morning, have brought Lisbon papers to the 16th instant. Spanish to the sth, and Brussels papers to the 25th. The intelligence we have received by these con veyances is of the highest interest. The Lisbon papers, under date of the ith, contain the form of the paper which the Generals commanding in the provinces, are to bays signed by all those under their command, for the purpose of exacatiag the law ream:ang Secret Societies The counter-Revolution, which succeeded so mar velously in Portugal, has not, it appears, been effected with equal facility in some of the De pendencies of that kingdom. A Portuguese brig, in ten days from Terceira, brings word that the inhabit ants of that island, according to these accounts, received with great satisfaction the news frein Trazos Monte', and resolved to proclaim the King independent, that they had a Meeting on the lit of June, in the suburb of Angra, which was opposed by the judge of that city, and the military authorities; but the people obtained their object, not without bloodshed, caused by their dis like to those who had adopted the system that then go verned. On the 7th the Junta created by the decree of 9th June, to prepare a plan for a Constitution of the Portuguese Monarchy bad its first hit ting, when the Marquess de Palinella addressed the Meeting. After a long exordium, in which his Excel lency, among other matters, went into a detail of what , be deemed the fatal effects produced by the Revolution, he expressed himself in the following terms:— His Majesty resuming his supreme power, seeks only toconsolidate a Monarchy, in the organization of which, without losing sight of - the ancient institutions of the Portuguese Government, the dignity of the throne may be combined with the rights of the several classes in the State, and the security which the laws ought to afford to every individual. He desires to promulgate a Code not destined to the development of vain and abstract theo ries, but which may practically guarantee the most es sential rights, and ix the public safety on solid bases, giving room for progressive ameliorations, and preserving a prudent analogy with the wisest institutions of the other monarchies of Europe, not only because their advantages have been proved by experience; but, because our intimate relations with other States skew, how desirable it is, that the in stitutions of all the Powers may approximate to each other as much as possible. " For this purpose, his Majesty has been pleased to appoint the presest Junta, of which I have the-itoeoe to be President, and which being composed of men of Itch acknowledged merit, will doubtless fulfil its honourable commission, and draw up a plan of a Constitution woodsy of his Majesty's royal approbation, and which may esta blish for mauy ages the happiness of the Portuguese Nation. A circular letter from the Marquess Palmella to the Foreign Ministers, accquaints them that in conse quence of the insult put upon his Catholic Majesty at Seville, the Minister at the Court of Lisbon cannot be recognized as agent of the Spanish Govern ment at Cadiz ; that all official correspondence with him must therefore cease, but that be may remain at Lisbon as a private individual. This measure, however, it is added, by no means invalue any hostile disposition towards Spain, bet proceeds from a consistency with the principles of the Portuguese Government ; and in confor mity to the conduct observed by the representatives of all the other Powers of Europe, who were at Saville on the occasion of the offence. With deep concern .we communicate the .following melancholy intelligence, which we find in a letter, dated Lisbon, July 15 The steam packet.

JULY 2.—What has happened to the steam boat from London is one of the greatest humiliations that the Bride. deg can suffer, and all the English here murmur at it. It was authoritatively summoned ; made to approach by can non shot; the passengers and letters sent on shore, and the steam boat ordered to go to San Lacer, though it had no cargo whatever. As the Spanish passengers were not in commoded with the letters stopped, the only object must have been to insult the British vessel. That Government well deserves this aad other insults, which it daily expe riences, since it Is certain that the French have placed their blockade within Gibraltar. The vessels at the bar of Cadiz mock all the power of Great Britain, while there is not a day passes that feleceas and boats of all other nations enter , this port. (This was the Royal George.) JULY 44—General Zayss has arrived at Malaga, where he has found the people full of enthusiasm, in the cause of the Constitution. The French blockading squadron is constantly in sight , bat cannot hinder the entrance of a dee. boat. Many ar rive with provisions of all kinds. The Cortes continse to take sack treasures.* the crisis demaads.—( Esliectarler to July 6.) An article from Conlon, dated 10th July, says, that the Diario Colistittaional publishes a proclamation of General Morino, dated Lugo, June 26, that Sir Robert Wilson proposed to employ the muskets to be received from England, to arm the militia of Comma, which was approved by General Qoiroga. There is a letter from Sir Robert Wilson, (for which we have not room) dated June 30, addressed to the inhabitants of Vigo previous to his departure fur Corunna. Another letter from Gorman., dated July 10, states that General Palasea had arrived at Belanzos with 2500 men for the Asturias. The Spaniards were concentrat ing at Oriuse, where several corps have jollied. A thou• sand stand of arms, and 53 barrels of powder, had ar lived from England. ' The Brussels papers announce that the Diet of Snit zerland on the 7th instant. An article from Frankfort states, that the Prussian Government has resolved to pro claim in the course of next month a general amnesty of political opinion s. Public attention still continues fixed upon the Penin sula. The French ultras are angry ; and this augurs well for Spain. They begin to think it probable that they may not be able to get Ferdinand out of the hands of his keepers. The creoridienee gives extracts from a letter written by an officer in the army before Madrid, which actually terrify the Royalists. These extracts state that General Valdez, the Spanish Commandant at Cadiz, has replied to the communications with the Fren. b General, Bourdescrolt, "that be did not doubt that the " French might soon obtain possession of Cadiz, bat that " then the Spanish Constitation and Monarchy would , " have sought an asylum in Ceuta, and even in Airier,' " for the Cortes would endeavour to form a postage ; " and in case the French squadron should oppose this " new flight of the Government of the Cortes, that the " Constitution and the Monarchy would engulph theme " selves in the bay of Cadiz." This is a result which we took the liberty some weeks since of suggesting might happen ; and the mere threats seem to have injured the senses of the enemies of Spanish independence.— Valdez is called a "madman ;" and the statement is de signated as " regicide language." The Courier has also a paragraph which seems founded on the conviction that to persevere in the attempt to gain possession of , Cadiz, may have more disastrous consequences than the French are willing to encounter. This paragraph informs its readers that they may rely upon the intelli gence that " the French Government have it in " contemplation to retire across the Ebro, and take up " their line of defence along that river. The " heavy artillery has been ordered up to invest the strong " positions on that line. It is the intention of the Duke " d'Angouletne to withdraw the troops from before Ca " diz, unless there should arise a more favourable pros " pect of being successful in accommodating the differ " ences between the contending parties in Spain !" Th's is rare news, indeed! The poor Duke, who thought himself the Deliverer of Spain, cannot accommodate the differences among his own party. How can he expect then to have any success with the other? The whole plan is therefore to be changed. The French, instead of sweeping through Spain like a whirlwind, are to take up a line of defence! and to do this, they have to besiege and take the fortresses of which it is to be composed ! This is having to catch the bear, before it can be skin ned ; and the parties are hungry already ! A Ministerial paper of this morning does not like this intelligence ; and as the Courier said it was more than a month since it first hinted at the circumstance, the other sagaciously remarks, that " we have not been quite three weeks io " possession of the fact, that the French troops had reach " ed the Bay of Cadiz; and consequently the hints of the " Courier a month ago could not well be founded on " the disappointment of the plans of the French to get " possession of that place." By the good leave, howere-, of the latter Ministerial Scribe, they might have been to founded ; for it might have been discovered before tl a French reached the Bay of Cadiz, that they would reach it to no purpose. The great hope of the invaders rested on the success of their bribery and intrigues. All that could be accomplished in this way, was effected before Ferdinand left Seville. When it was found that his Keepers were incorruptible; and were determined that the King should share their fate, the hopes of the French withered like Jonah's gourd ; and the Courier might a month ago, be in the secret that the intrigues to get Ferdinand into the holy keeping of the Army of the Fai►h had failed. With these would naturally fail the hope of getting possession of Cadiz; because it was known to every one that the French army was inadequate to take it, if it made any resistance. The bare proba bility of the French retiring from Cadiz, is, however, such wormwood to those who said Spain could make no resistance, that they will affect not to believe it,until all ,doubt is dispersed by the actual occurrence of the fact. - 7r-I*r.- '4 . 40"". It is reluctantly "dm tted on all hands that there ar e differences among the Spanish Royalists of an irrecon. cilable nature; hut it is said, " this consideration Hill " hardly induce the French Government to throw Spain " again into the bands of the Jacobin." Thank Heaven, France has not yet been able to take Spain out of the hands of the Jacobins ; so that they have it not to throw back to them again :—Barcelona, Patnpelana, Saint Sebastian, Badajoz, Coruna', as well as Cadiz, are yet to be taken, with many more places, before Spain will be in the hands of the French.—Foreign force and na tive villainy have yet something to accomplish, before these places will fall: nor is it the detestable abuse which the Journal in question lavishes upon the incor ruptible Generals of Spain, that trill compel them to bend the knee before that French Baal, the Duke d'An gouleme. Among the curiosities of the Stock Exchange may be classed the Poyais Loan, in which there was some busi ness done the latter end of last week. The buyers gave 161. to receive back again, sometime, 1001.; and in the interim, to receive the interest of the 1001. Stock for the 161. Capital advanced. The price of the 1001. Stock has been as low as air pounds. Do the purchasers of these Stocks ever pause, to remember that they deserve what will most assuredly happen to them, to lose their money? They are like misers, taking the advantage of the wants of minors ; and the loss of their advances is the least part of the punishment that should fall upon them. A rich and well established State could not gua rantee such terms ; how then can a small colony, in the midst of uncleared forests,underteke to offer any security ? We have no objection that our wealthy men should spe culate on such ventures, if they please. They can afford to lose the money ; and it would be better employel in clearing the Poyais country, than its desolating Spain, or consolidating the despotisms of Europe. But these apparent speculations of the traffickers in the funds, are m eant to delude others, who are not aware that they are speculating at all. A few Brokers dabble in Poyais Stock, to give its name a currency in the market. They do mesa to be ultimate holders ; bat merely to add it to the authorised ventures on the money-market; and then disposing of all their own interest in the affair, they can laugh at the silly expectants of interest-money from the forests of the Poyais! To sell the lands of the Poyais country, Is assuming much ; yet, if those who buy them go out to settle upon them, they may not at present find any one to dispute their purchases ; but to suppose that the Poyais settlers will ever recognize a Poyais loan, of which they will never receive one farthing, nor from which will they ever derive any benefit, is to draw a,, largely upon the Bank of Faith, as ever did Mr. Hunt ingdon. The Man in the Moon would offer as good security for a loan ; but loans are now the fashion, as joint-stock companies were some years ago ; and we should not wonder if the two new Zealand Chiefs now exhibiting at the Cobourg, were not to negotiate a 1044 before they return ; offering the substantial mortgag of all the Southern islands, with thecollateral security s e scalps and war-dances ! • WINDSOR, JULY 2G.—On Friday bi 3 Majesty with a numerous party of Noblemen and Ladies, visited the Castle, and remained there a considerable time • the Royal party cause down the Meg walk and thronin g she Little Park, in two close carrriages and four, and two open carriages.
