It might hr remembered, that at the trials of flarly ami Horne Tooke, a letter from :ke duke of Richn.oasi was read, in which that doctrine , el s pUhlirit avowed. The same had been supported by 'Learned fientlentan. a bendier of that Ins of Court (Lincoln's-inn), which ormliteed his Learned Friend (ge. Sear! lit Ile to the opinions and doc- •-irts of )Ir. Jeremi Broth mi. This tie mentioned, to! 'LAT that the defendants. in a !rotating Etch doctrines, h. I not taken up ally new opinion. or broached a doe not heard of before. It was a matter of historic revont that Parliaments were triennial in the last eta- I tier: and I pi rsons maiotaineal. (though he was ~,re that the contrary opinion was iery •froagli sap. ported.) aro at one period of our history it was the I practice to assemble Parliaments annually. It cook' not, therefore, be maintained. that the mere advocacy 41 lib a doctrine was iu itself remind. that it was said: that ore of those bantioci bore the inscription " Equal i representation or death. - This. however, had not been brought home to any of the defendants. It was nut shown that the wile or sister of any of them had pre-1 pared it; and, for aught that appeared in evidence. it 1.41 t have been introduced into the meeting by an enemy. If the meeting tier.. assembled laltfully. cools' it he said that it would become unlawful by the intro iinetion of inch a ? The people had a riOst ' oseetble; aid, if any person wished to do an unlawful art in the meeting, it would not he illegal, except the eker parties present were ianetioninc aml supporting sit illegal act. It had not appeared that any art of hid been done by any of those now hefore the lout. There was no evideare that any violent breach the prase had been committed by any of the per tins assembled. It was not, as in the case of the Ntaa *Qs meeting, attended with midi mad arts as hail bees attempted by voting Watson, and those who went with hies to the shop of the gun-smith. How. then, in the absence of such arts, or of any act of violence, could the nietdiniz be termed a seditious one. The t'onrt and the Jury had heard of the fears of several witnesses on the' on casino; they had heard front Mr. Holton, the opinion, that if the ineetiag had remained together till the night, Mattches f e l r i g e ld sot have stood the next des. He (Mfr. Ho , helmet Metre, that from the eel 'knee, it did not appear that Manchester was in any ;miter danger than London bad been at the time of the Smithfield meeting; and that it had been in no danger was happily proved. Some of the defendants had made 'perches, bat was not the termer of all those speeches !hat of advising the people to be peaceable? Wlic should any other construction be put un those word's than what their common import conveyed? Why should a man who advises order be supposed to Thrall IfifOrliPr ? The words used by Mr. H,,nt—" if anyo n e shall attempt to disturb the rem put them down, and keep them quiet." could only refer to the preservation of order. As to the banners which were carried, he had alroitly spoken of them. But Saxton was not ronnected with any one of these banners whatever. The evidence against hien did not amount to any inflammatory words or seditious acts, or any participation in them; but this he wools, come to afterwards. He would now come to the third charge, that of riot. And if he could (as he hoped he would he able to do) save his client from the charges of a conspiracy and seditious assembling, he would have no diffienity in defending him against the third charge of a riot. To prove a man guilty of riot, he must be shown to have done some act in apprns al of a riot com mitted by wheel. It did not follow, by any mean., that all who happened to he present at a riot were guilty of a crime. sow as to the evidence against Saxton. The wit against him were Platt, Milli, and Orton.— Mills could not positively say that Saxton was on the hosting. before Mr. Hunt came. It was said by an other witness, that Saxton appeared to aildress the people, but he could not hear him. Suppose hr was in the cart with Mr. Hunt, that did not constitute guilt. It would be proved that Saxton was a reporter for a paper in Manchester, and attended to take notes of what passed. Mr. Orton was present as a reporter, and hr was not considered as having acted improperly ; he was even locked with others. If Saxton was guilty from the mere circumstance of his being on the huslings,why then Mr. Fitzpatrick was guilty, for he was on the limiting% at Smith fi eld, and in the cart next to Hum himself; but Mr. Fitzpatrick was there as re porter for The Neer Times, and would, no doubt, hr far 1./ "mjeilliag in any improper eimiliwt. Why, then, . 1 "Id it be said that Saxton was culpable, who was a 1 1 16 rirr for a paper on different principles? lieshould ;note the facts with respect to Saxton, he bad no doubt, to the satisfretion of the Court and Jury. Of the other defendants be had nothing to say, and it was fortunate for himself and them, for he had not strength to go liceeith their cases. If the Jury should be satisfied that Saxton had had no other connexion witl, the meet ing that, is his capacity as a reporter to a paper. they *wild, he bad no doubt, give him the benefit of it. Bamford next addressed the Jury. and in a speech of ale incoasidemble talent, defended himself against the rhataes which were made against him. He was followed hr Swift, Healey, and Johnson, whose speeches occu pied the Court for some time. At half past six o'clock the Court adjourned till ten mouorrow, at the Fetid's( of Mr. Hunt, who said he uoald regalee till that time, in order to look over the r , •rr voluminous papers to which he had to refer. Sir. Hunt was followed to his lodgings by a consi drrahle number of his friends, who cheered him on his entrance. It is considered here, that the case will last till Thurs ,sy evening at least; and we nitileritand that Mr. Ins iice HATLIIT has dispatched an express to Lancaster, for the Mrs* of informing the parties coneer•ed. that the eases which be is to try will sot come on before Monday. the nth.

Mr. Wonvt.ev defended his conduct in the House of C 11111 l nom', and contended that it was perfectly consistent with his declaration there. He was a friend to the li hertiea of his coun'ry, and he voted for those Bills whit it had been alluded to, because, if they had not been passe.'., he conscientiously thought the liberties of his country sunlit he in danger.
