We mach regret that, from many unavoidable ob stacles, we have been compelled 80 long to defer gr.f tifyiug our readers, by giving publicity to many im portant and highly interesting occurrences connected with the proceedings and results of the above most li important cease. It appears that during the whole of the progress of the various proceedings lately instituted against the Common Council, every part of their conduct had been from time to , time marked and characterized by every thing inconsistent, vexatious, and tyrannical In the origin of the dispute io Oct. Lehr, they were contented to assign, as their only reas.or fur refusing the interference of the Burgesses in the election of a Mayor, that they were taken by surprise, and they were wholly unable to state on what grounds, or to explain in any rational manner why they so abruptly excluded theta from voting on such occasion ; but, on the contrary, most insultingly told them that they Auld not vote or interfere at all. It is must im portant to observe that at that time there was not a shadow of idea entertsioca by any one of the existence of any By-Lew as their authority for so acting; that idea never once occurred to them, nor to any other person, but was perfectly as remote from their consi deration as the idea of observing any common honour or decorum towards the Burgesses. After they were defeated at the Gloucester Assizes, they, on the second mock-election in July last, tenaciously adhered to the same illegal system of self-election as before, though they became much more humble, and even _canvassed the Burgesses for their rotes, and secured as many by such means as they were enabled to do; but after mach tampering, juggling, and double dealing ou the occasion, finding they had not succeeded in pro curing as many votes as they wanted, they pretended, with the most contemptible affectation or candour and justice, that they could not permit any Borges* to, vote against them, without the sanction and authority of the Court of King's Bench, observing that, when a decision from that Court was given respecting the question at issue, they would immediately abide by' it, and that such decision was all they wanted to guide them. In conformity, therefore, with this barefaced mockery of justice, they persevered in the same insulting ceremony of ranrussieg the 'Burgesses for their votes on the third mock-electionin October last, when the same illegal mode of election was adopted for the third time, and the nomination by the Burgesses, of a person to serve the office :If Mayor s was again , illegally and tyrannically rejected, aid treated with the same largess defiance as on the former occasion, but with additional aggravations of injury and insult towards them by the wilful suppress:on of the protest made and presented by them on such for mer occasions against the' :node of election then adopted. On the occasion of this third mokk election, in Octo b er 1.--• •L. IVA,* It •hle and Worship 'l Reeoeder the most distinct lon in July ivs ekaie- which wanner, that should be then took Bond Prosser, -rtou or, Mr. ILlnantlil and t h at sneli elections wool this, however, ;h er . Soon aft, r rise &bald thrir pretended anxiety gt...,necision of the Court of King's Bench respecting the validity of either elective and openly and unblushingly held out rarkus threats and menaces that, let what would happees the ltn-gcsse l should 'lever succeed in their oloject,—that they %voted keep up and probing the litigation for these tea' years,—that the Burgesses would be unable to pro cure the means of defraying the expenses attendant on sorb protracted litigatior, and that, in shoat, one of tle Town-Bradles or Constables would be sooner likely to be Mayor than any one prupo:wil by the burgesses: and many other such conieliptili:e threats. The truly vexations and hart-wising srdein however afterwards resorted to by the Common Conntil, to in volve the burgesses in ruinous expense by the napre cedented length of their pleas, (whirl' was only etl as a tyrannical artifice to oppress and grind Clete dawn so as to disable them,) is an intlispiitab:e proof that their sole reliance fur success was piaced in the hope that the Burgesses would be unable to pay for the office-copies of their voluminous end fictitious pleas, which amounted to sesersi hundred pounds, and that such artifice was only practised to sup ly the wretched deficiency of any just, honest, or honourable ground of defence. But notwithstanding ell them dishonourable experiments to bolster up tyranny, in justice, and oppression, the sacred cause of justice again and ogeia triumphed; and the vertlir! of dna- Sher honest, independent, and enlightened Jury has firmly and irrevocably fixed and" establishel its baa;a„ on a foundation Never again to be shaken or disturbed. The Common Council however were no! to Be satisfied by any kgal decision, nor controlled by any law; fur they, even after this, bell out defiance, and again re fused obedience to the laws of their country, though they declared to several persons, with the most con summate duplicity, that they did not Intend to liti gate the question any more, nor to. offer any further resistance to the claims of the Burgesses; and even professed to entertain the must anxious wishes that peace and harmony might be restored to the town. These assurances werealetually made by the late Act ing Mayor, Mr. Eilinunti Bond Prosser, after the decision at the last Monmouth Assize' , ; but immediately after which an application arras made to the Court of King's Bench, to set aside the verdict and to obtain a new trial, which lie disclaimed any knowledge of, after lie knew the object bad failed; for such an application was unanimously rejected by the whole Court; which finally put an end to every further means of disturbing the second decision of the Jury. But even this solemn adjudication and judgment of all tbr Judges hail no effect oa the loannina Council; for the late Acting Mayor, Mr. Edmund Bond Prosser, when &treed with the process of the Court of King's Bench, for acting in defiance to its decision and authority, not only treated lit with the aost baccarat.* roatesepl, atoll is a manner r last, the Right llonourabh der candidly &dared, in th that if the pOssilkir electi( adjudged to .bo Iliegal, ,he place of the late .actiag Tlapu sser, would Is .talw illegal, would both othhi orfall /ogre) .ver, they threw off all (lisp anxiety for obtaining the deeis so truly unbecoming the gravity and dignity of a Chief Magistrate, but afterward - 4 availed himself of every pos sible advantage to delay and procrastinate the litigation, by which lie compelled the Court to issue another pro cess against him, for his contempt in not appearing to the information; and he even Melt vexatiously and wan tonly obtained nearly a mouth's time to plead to sad, information, after be knew and was convinced, that all hope and prospect of success had vanished. The Coin mon Council therefore, instead of yielding obedience to the decision of the Court of King s Beneli, which they had so shortly before niost'unequivocally expressed their intention to do, confirmed, in unexampled defiance ,if all law, of all reason, of all common decorum, or coo,. mon justice, to tramp those stations and offices, and to exercise those powers and authorities which it ma, solemnly determined, and finally decreed they had to legal right or pretence to do, and they, by such meaus, in wilful disregard to their own positive assurance, kept up, increased, and aggravated those disgusting scenes of clamour, tumult, and uproar, which had se long dis turbed and disgraced the town. At length judgment of Onster was signed against the late Acting Mayor, Mr. Edmund Bond Prosser, and a Writ of Mandamus granted to compel the Returning (Miter to_ proceed to the election of a Mayor; and Fri day. the 43d alt., was the day appointed for such pun prise. Immediately on this being announced, a most active canvass was personally commenced by the Doke of Beaufort's Agent, in favour of Mr. Joseph 'Nice, one of those Burgesses attached to the interest of the Com moo Council, (though not a Common Comicihrian.) in opposition to the interests of the Independent Burgesses. whose principal point of contention was thus at last openly conceded to them. The most extraordinary ex• pedients were put in practice by the Duke's agent find some of the Common Council, to obtain votes fur Mr. Price, and the utmost possible milieu of the (tulle's power, influence, int.oest, and connexion, in and oat of the County, was male to induce and even to compel a great many of the independent Burgesses to betray their friends and their cense on the occasion, notwith -standing it was notoriously known that all each Bur gesses had entered into a solemn written engagement to vote for Mr. Heath. Moner was offered in profusion; houses, farms, lands, premises, &c. were offered forth_ same purpose; but all in vain. Even the principal of the fair sex, connected with tint party, were put iu requisition; who entertained the vain hope that their entreaties would be attended to. All this may appear the more extraordinary, when it is known that Mr. Price himself, and others of the Common Council. after has? ing declared their unqualified approbation of the verdict which decided that the mode adopted by the common Council, of cleating the Mayor, on all :Tu. - mar occasions, was illegal, had actually voted at the two last mock-elections in favour of the two Mr. frossers, when the fame mode of electing was adopt ed on each occasion. They by such conduct intpo decidedly sanctioned that eery mode of election, against which they so shortly before expressed their disappro hatioo, by approving the verdirt. Had Mr. 'Heath, v.lso was proposed by the Independent Burgesses on such mock-election as a Candidate Mayor, been permitted to he put in nomination as a Candidate for such olive on such occasion, and all the Burgesses freely allowed to vote fur either Candidate, as they %ad an undoubted right to do, then any Burgess inightliase voted gooiest Mr. Ileath , if lie preferred his rival Candidate, without violating his principles or his conscience; but at, to condemn the mole of election, by approviog Lb* and propriety of the verdict which declared legal, and immediately afterwards to uphold' sad thin that very mode by actually voting infer is that course of conduct, in which no one can trace t to remotest semblance to consistency or rationality. This, however glaring and palpable. is nothing to the attempts recently made by the Duke's Agent arol his assistants, to metamorphose the office of Mayor into an office of dumb show—something similar to that of the lowest burlesque character in the lowest burlesoue • pantomine ; for when they found that those Indepen dent Burgesses whole they had marked oat for their prey were proof against the " peltings of the pitiless storm," they proposed that, if the I iiilependeot liur gesses wonld consent that their proeular candidate should be manacled like a slave or a criminal. or appear ire a straight waiscoat, he sh.sulti be graciously permitteGl to be sworn in Mayor without opposition ; hut on no other terms, fur otherwise, said they in effect. we will, by 'some means of legal fiction and quibbling keep you at hay for these ten rears, without being at all k alarmed or disturbed - by any acision at law or in equity.' They hail even so constructed their plot and inseliii,ecy as to enable their I larlequin io the piece to acestiipfisli their object without any other aid than that magicsl spell lieciiar to his character; for lie, by such influent. could at his pleasure marvellously transfer the great ma- , jority of votes helonging to the in,lppetiilent Burgess.-a, to the side of the Common Council; but still virtually held out that "if jonr Canilislate will consent to stamt in the pillory all the time he mar he in office, he shall • h.n•e the honour of bring called Royer. On the slay of Election, Mr. Price, finding not a man in the ranks of his opponent had fallen, declined offer ing himself as a Candidate, and the Common Cosincil was reducer! to the mortifying necessity of offering, as a dernier resort, the late Acting. Mayor, Mr. Prosser, who hail treated the process of the Court of King's Bench , with tke Arms indignity before allu.d to, anti • who had been so shortly before ousted from that nib.r as n usurper, as recited in the Writ of Mandamus. Tbi . % ; extraordinaryoust occurrence was not known to the Independent Burgesses until they were actualty.asseio bled in the Ilall on the day of election, nor was tt known to some of their own voters, when called oIKISI to vote.
