I t „ f ad seem, at last, did o.ir ministers have t a ken th e * Wm, !Wail serious attack should be made upon South America, which is now the sheet anchor of our manafac- Wing prosperity. The commerce with the Spanish Colo gists has encreased so fast as nearly to have doubled itself eery year ; and this is double advantage to the ministers ; masoluch u it keeps a large proportion of the =mast- Wes in quiet employment ; and adds, at the same o we , so mething to the revenue of the State. Ally thing that should interrnpt this order, would terribly disconcert t h em; and their individual interest and ease,teing so mush implicsted in maintaining " things as they ire," in that quarter, they may muster up as much courage as to bluster a little, if any attempt is made to disturb them. If, however, they again place their depend *ace upon Bourbon promises, and take no steps to defend British interests in South America until they are directly sod aurally attacked, they will again be the dupes of the Friub Ministry, and its northern prompter. It is said that at the late interview between the Emperors of Austria ant Kurd*, at Csernowits, the affairs of the East were het slightly touched upon. Alexander does not like to interfere at present in the dispute between Greece and Terkel. There is an intrigue going forward, the object eT which is to induce the Greeks to imitate the conduct of distill, frogs in the fable, who called out for a King! Vie Greek church, or at least some of its leading authori• tree, are in favour of this measure ; an d it is rather to be wished. than hoped, that the military leaders of the Greeks may not fall into a snare, which. if successful, would enable *Alexander to become the arbiter of the dapiapof Greece, without the (Aiwa of appearing as the dritreyer of her new-born liberties. The ensuing winter • will . probably be spent by Russia, in the perfecting of thls intrigue ; and by France, in the preparation of an eitpedition for the South. In what way it will be spent by i v the English Ministers, we cannot pretend to guess; but On ',comity fur exertion is felt amongst some of them ; b their equipping a ship or two. and adding a regiment is! two. to the army. But what is wanting on their part, iis a dirtinct declaration of their determination, not to tpermit any:attack upon the New States. This alone can !prevent it. _ The Lincolnshire contest ties terminated, as a matter of tit', in favour of Sir William Ingilby, who has probs. lay paid some thousands of pounds for the useless honour. ihe means to be honest, of sitting out the remainder of Ilkepresest Parliament. We call it a useless honour, because Ire do not see what Sir William cap do ill Parliament, 'We than give himself she trouble to leave his country torments to keep bad hours, and sot the best of com pany in London ; and we, because we suspect, from some Wilideptal observations in iiis speeches, that he loss yet his E f s s u da ' ' to learn. On one occasion , he said he would not or a radical reform, sinless the elective franchise were' . to ladies. This was only folly; but on . or occasion, be fell into the Tory wickedness 6talking of "patting doom Ms rabble ;" meaning, y this, to put down all who would not vote *ibis; with the exception of Colonel Johnson, we sup. pee, for whom Sir William has always professed the harmed esteem; though, it Is probable, not from purer ssinives than the old woman who always curtsied when the sass of his Satanic Majesty was mentioned ; because, seise said, there was no knowing where one might go; soaking as well to have friends every where. We must, however, make tome allowances for the soreness of Sir William, who expected to bear off the plate by merely within over the coarse; bet has bees obliged to put ent,not merely his strength, but to open his purse pretty widely, notwithstanding the Petronage oaf Lnrd Yar lisreogh. The Freeholders have taught him a very use. fal lesson, respecting the value of patronage ; and if it were *to ominous lapse of the tongue, when he said, on the elm of the poll, that he '' stood before them, for the last tile," to return them thanks, be may, on a future contest, thlok the patronage of the freeholders the least expensive sibile of accomplishing his object. A ober ni nit paper of to-day's, says, with mach lack-a dtisieal sitoplicity--As We have always been in the habit of • remidenng the territories over which the British flag " waved. as affording a ready asylam to the wretched, and ' I ens freedom to the slave!" Does the Editor know that the British flag waves in the West Indies over hundreds of fieumeds, and in the East over millions of slaves? And be forgotten that in England the blood of the people bleheen shed even at high noon,without retribution, or en leiry? The remark was penned upon the subject of the Somme r of Gibraltar ordering the Spanish exiles to quit the Ad ata short notice:—an order which it asserts was f‘rwarchd from this country; and that our Ministers WNW to allow an empty transport to convey those exiles ll ' Ettglantl, who had not means to buy a passage for them isles.. If this be true, and we fear it is, what is it but 'enlist into effect the principles which dictated the Alien 4 0.4%1 a hundred other laws equally hostile to the spirit fiegehoald animate the rulers of a free country ? b appears that"the delay in the trial of the parties at %Ward. was determined upon before Mr. Justice Park and a Morning Paper attempb to shay that it M reeelved upon by the ministry. to maim up for the )1 4aryinstained by the prisoners. from th e r e fusal of the Iligairates to admit their friends aid legal advisers on their first commmitment. We do not see why a month should be given to compeoute fur tbe loss of three or four days; and are rather inclined to think thi delay has arisen from an official desire to give a signal reprbot to the press, for its unseemly dieing, to tell all that it cdttid learn. It is, however, no matter from what cause the delay has arisen. If it was requisite for the prisoners, it was an act of justice; if it was not, it is one of mercy ; and we are not disposed to question its propriety in any way. Tits Outage.—lt gives us much pleasure to learn that the unfortunate issue of the patriot cause in Spain has not damped the ',doer of our countrymen in doing good. We understand that a subscription of Mt has been remitted from Kilmarnock to the tireekComtnittee iniondon through the hands of Sir Ronald Fergusson. We do not think the benevolent and liberal minded can bestow their money better. The sword never was drawn in a purer and juster cause than that of the Greeks. By accomplishing so much already they have shown that even moderate succours may insure their success ; and having strained every nerve in their own cause against such fearful odds. they have a right to look for sympathy and svpport from all who think that religion and liberty ars ohj,cts wnrth contending for.

Saturday Prince Leopold gave a splendid entertainment at Claremont, to a numerous party, to meet his Royal Highness the Doke of York. Among the company were the Earl and Countess of Liverpool, the Count end Coun tess Lieven. The Duchess of Kent, the Prince of Leinin. gen, and Princess Frodore, had been staying at Claremont' for about two months past, daring which time his Royal Highness's mansion has been filled with a constant sue seassion of numerous parties : so much so, that some of the establishment has been obliged to leave the house to give up the rooms to the visitors, although the mansion has been considerably enlarged wheli it was lately obliged to undergo a thorough repair, owing to its having been disrovered to have the dry tot and other very great dilapi dations. which have cost the Pelvic.. upwArds of 15,0001. The Doke of York was to ties. spent the whole of the day with the Prince at Claremont, to have enjoyed the sport of shooting, bat was prevented by the raia—(Coert Circular.)

This morning there were good fresh arrivals of Wheat, Barley, Peas, and Beans, from Essex, Kent and Suffolk, and a few Oats from the Northern ports and Ireland. Prime dry samples of Wheat have readily obtained the priers of this day se'noighi; .other qualities are dull in sale though not lower. Barley con tinues plentiful, and has declined in value Is. per quarter, Beans have sold very heavily, and have also coffers I a de cline of Is. per quarter. Barley nearly maintains last quotation. tirey Peas are very dull in disposal, and full Is. per. quarter cheaper. tiood dry Oats maintain last week's value, but other sorts are heavy in sale, and rather cheaper. 1 o doer there is no alteration. Rye is advanced considerably, owing to so much being used as a substitute for Coffee. SIIITHWILD MARKS?, Dec. B.—There was a great number of Oxen at market this morning ; but few amongst them of superior quality. flood and fat ones were in de mand, and obtained a high price ; but the inferior sorts were scarcely saleable. Sheep were not in so great a number as oo last Monday. It is expected that on Mon day next there will be a great show of cattle. The price. may be qucteil nearly the same as on this day se'nnight, al though wore is demanded.

THEATRICALS. •-•.i.- Hiss STEenves appeared on Saturday night, for the first time this season, at Drury Lane. She played the trifling character of Diana Vernon, and sung the simple airs with the most exquisite beauty, and the most touching pathos. She was encored in them all. Mr. MACREADI played Ro6 Roy with more than usual vigour and feeling. He was every way the reality of the author's conceps tion; and met with the loudest applause. Mr. LISTON' played with the poker a little too much ; and the grouping of this scene is not sufficiently attended to ; t Bane might have been run through the body haf a dozen times while he was going for his weapon. Mr. Hoare is a good Francis Osbaldestonc, and sang with spirit and taste .The Dongal Creators" of Mr. BROWNE, is a spirited performance; bat he speaks too good English for so wild a Highlander. The Ellen Ale. Gregor of Mrs. BURN, was sufficiently powerful for the daring wife of the lawless hero; and we never saw the opera performed with more•effeet. Mr. KEAN, after repeated announements, is to appear in Richard to.nigbt, and will doubtless he heartily wel comed back to the arena of his repeated triumphs. In the course of the week, BRANAM will also open his campaign, and the rival meg exert itstlf,to keep pace with the e • - ing attraction of old Drury. We are somewhat surprised that Covent Garden should not perceive that novelty is the only means of counteracting the effect of this desertion of so many favourites of the establishment.

The Assizes finished on Fridey evening, at a late hour.— None of the cases In the Calendar were of very general in terest. Though there were several commitments for capital offences, but two convictions took place. Toe only cos i es worth menlooing were the following:— Wes. Dean was indicted on the Coroner's Inquisition for felestoesly lilting and staying George Gravestoek, at Great Gaddestion, on the 13th of September lest. It appeared that the prisoner and the deceased had had some angry words at a /*bile house, and immediately adjourned to an orchard to settle the dispute by a pugilisticeombat. S I rounds were Ilateght, and In the contest the deceased appeared to be the better man.—The prisoner at length declined fighting any ismer, as he complained that the deceased had hit him several foil blows, and had struck him whilst on the ground. lie was retiring from the ring, and had called for his clothes, when the deceased said. " Curse hint, he has not had enough yet," and followed him to the edge of the ring, and struck him a blow on the back of the neck, The prisoner immediately faced about, and had another round, in the close the last blow took effect upon the deceased's neck, under the left ear, and he fell dead ou the spot.--After the fatal event, the prisoner was deeply affected with grief, and since then was stated to be inconsola. Me. Both were described as having been warm friends before the fight ; had been school-fellows, and were much attached to each other. The prisoner received an excellent character for mildness of disposition. The witnesses deposed that the de ceased had struck the prisoner some foul blows, and they consi dered the drill was at an end when the prsoner was followed and struck by the deceased in the manner above mentioned. Mr. BRODUNICIL for the prisoner, submitted that his client was entitled to an acquittal, the fatal blow having been struck as defendendo. Mr. Justice HALROTo inclined to this opinion, and directed the Jury to find the prisoner Not Guilty. A verdict of Not Guilty was accordingly recorded. [Before Mr. Justice PARK James Lowe was indicted for assaulting Thomas Butter worth, at East Barnett, on the 29th of July, putting bim in fear, and stealing from his person 21. Bs. in money, and a silver watch. The prisoner and the prosecutor were labouring men, and had been employed by the gardener of a gentlemen named Wyatt, of East Barnet, to work in the garden. Fro :n motives of kindness, the gardener allowed them to sleep in a shed or outhouse, attatched to the pie misc., whilst their employment lasted. On the night of the 29th of July the prosecutor retired at an early hour to bed; about eleven o'clock he was roused by the prisoner who introduced a strange man into the shed, and desired that the latter might be allowed a night's lodging, having no place to go to. The prosecutor offered no objection, and' the stranger remained. Shortly afterwards the prisoner went out, and presently brought in anoihrr stranger, and begged for him a similar favour. The prosecutor re monstrated against this ; upon which all three fell upon him and began rising his pockets. He cried (or help; the prisoner stifled his voice by putting his hand upon his mouth, and held him down whilst the strange men stripped him of the property above mentioned. The strangers and the prisoner then decamped, followed by the prosecutor, who next morning succeeded in witting the prisoner, who confessed that his conduct was improper, and begged to be forgiven. The prosecutor had experienced a good deal of personal violence in the strugglo.—fbe prisoner offered nothing in his defence, but simply urged 114 innocence. The case went to the Jury under the Learned Judge's directions, and they brought in a verdict of 0 inky of aid ing and a.sisting in the robbery. Mr. Justice PARK informed the Jury, that if they were of opinion, that the prisoner took any guilty part in the transastion, he was a principal felon, as much as the man who had actually taken the property. The Jury then found the prisoner Guilty—Death ; but some of them said they wished to recommend the prisoner to mercy, The Learned Judge said, that such a recommendation oast be noanimous to be effective.—The FOREMAN said, the recommendation certainly was not unanimous.—Mr. Justice PARK then incrired of Mr. Wilson, the Governor of the gaol, bow the prisoner had conducted himself ' while in prison ? and being informed that be had behaved in a most exemplary manner, his Lordship said be should recommend hire as an object of !limey to the Crown. la the mean time, judgment of death was ordered to be re corded. The other capital conviction wea destitute of public interest. HUNT, PROBER r, AND TM/it - PELL #Poriitei ieniarki on their personal lipearsece before the Sloan on Pride! lait. .

The r eoeral idea communicated by hit figure is mental, and one would almost nay. bodily in. : significance.

NO could bear to look at the same iodividuel for a considershl• time, and we were favonred With his eitchtsive observation for the space of at leant two minutes ; but his eye. though fixed, said nothing and indicated nothing, farther thau that it was A forced look pat on for the occasion. PROM? is It much stouter man than Hsnt. He looks older in person than in years ; his hair is thin and grizzled& his eyes, which are very full, are black but dull, and out expression; and we know not that we ev.r saw a month or Tire so perfectly expressive of seusnality. AI. though we knew nothing at all of him, and with certainty we do know nothing, we should say at once that he wit a person disposed to enjay the present hoar without carleg much about the means which led to it, or the consequence which might follow in the next. In strength of character, he is certainly superior to Hunt, hat all the intellectual de velopments of his head are deficient. lie was dressed in e style pretty similar to Hont, and preserved, during the time he wits in Court, an uncha..ged and; as we should say, unmeaning expression of countenance. TntleTtzt. 'oaks considerably younger thin Probert, is not jest so tall, but perhaps a stronger man. There is something pecnliarly stupid and vdlgar in the air of his head. The forehead is almost the lowest we ever S4W. A id it is so deficient in breadth as to give his long brown visage very lunch the shape of a brick. His brows have a constant expression of solkinen ; and Ids eyes, which are not unlike the eyes of a ferret, look out from their puny and swollen lids wills a very a .onl.nz and sinie ter cast. His head is remarkable for the fulness of the posterior and lateral regions ; and we have se e n few men in which the measure from ear to ear svuoil he greater. The expression °ibis mouth would puzzle Gavotte himself; • it is sensual, though not grossly so, and it is ill tempered without being firm. He was rather genteely dressed in ft blue coat and drab vest end trowsers. Ilk character seemed to he more natural than that of Hun', and the feelings of his mind at the reading of the indictment, ant also of the affidavit, were strongly depicted upon his countenance, which changed through all the shades of brown, red, and purple. But though different feelings, were thus strongly indicated, no one could tell the class to which those feel ings belonged. The scowling brows, the convulsed not's.., the quivering lip, and the head bent al ern'itely to this side and to that. told you that strong feelings were at work within ; but when we looked at the eye, there was nothing there to hint what thooe feelings were. PIERCE EGAN'S INTERVIEW WITH TBUITELL. It was nearly ten o'clock on Thursday morning when 1 sent tily card into Mundt. He immediately sent an an swer that he was dressing, and should by reedy to see me in a few minutes, and presently afterward I was ushered into the office. Thurtell entered. He advanced towards me with a cheerful step and smiling countenance. Me. Wilson, the tiovernor, was present. I never saw Thurtell look better • in fact, his personal appearance was allure- I titer considerably improved. He was fashionable attired I in a blue coat with gilt buttons, a yellow se/blows', sod dark trowsers. His irons, which are rather heavy, were tied up wither silk handkerchief. His shirt and bandits,. chief white as snow ; his pin tastefully displayed; and his collar and wristbands corresponding with style of the pee • sent'period. —The following dialogue took place the mordent he petered : Thurtell—(Holding ont his hand, w'th great good hn moor.)
