He, therefore, thoegbt that Taller, from whom boon the deceased was drugged by the mob, dared sot to interpose for his 'protection. James M'Alftey, a weaver, deposed, that the de ceased had come into his boos, to @nape from the mob, sod that he pet the back•door spew his back to.sheiter himself from the stones pelted at him by the people. sees of whom witness home, bet he might identify same of them if he sow them again.

A Sergoon deposed, that Campbell came by his death through visitors said upon his person. • There were 28 witnesses esamieed altogether, and it eves peculiarly remarkable that with the ear:epilogs of three or four, the depoliess of all the others were previously imaged and draws op, to be then Memo to gad signed. De th@evtdeoce being closed, Mr. Agronomy' addressed the Joey in a speech of use. length. He bops by stole', that for Ore sok@ ref the individuals le custody epee a charge of pity. tolls( this foul and brutal warder, be felt it his duty to 'obeli a few obstrvatioas to the jedgvaeat of the Jury. That those persons, vie. Taylor aad his car. vane, were quite Neocene was, he thought, perfectly obvious. Nay, it was clear that they Were net only inaocent, but peculiarly meritorious, for in shelties ids door and windows, upon Campbell getting into the house. Taylor had done all Is his poser, with eat @admitting Lis sewn life, for that unfortunate tsar's protection. Therefore be concluded that the Jury would not hesitate to pr ace • verdict of acquittal with regard to these individuals, and thus restore them to society with an unsullied character. Here the Learned Gentleman commented upon the evidence, observing, that there could be so doubt as to the good sad loyal intentions of the deceased, or that he ass a man peculiarly 'rashers for the preset- Wien of the public peace, sod for the security of oar excellent Constitetion. It was, no doubt, to be lamented, that at a period of such tersest be should have fired the pistol alluded to in the manner described ; but thee, as it was observed by cue or two of the Jurors, it was known that Campbell was ie she babit of firing off pistols, and it did not appear that the pistol which be fired on the morning on which he mu his death, was levelled at say one. He (Mr. A.) fully believed that it was sot, and that the deceased tired this pistol merely to discharge the loadieg.— fetch being the case, be thought that no stress should be laid upon that act of the deceased, who had bete evidently murdered le a meat °tinges.; manner by epos persons unknowe; and it was to be tomes. bored, that may man milli among the mob was equally guilty with theme who actually struck the deceased, because the whole were eentributiog to the same end. The Loomed Gest/omen teeeteded with repressing his coatiction that the Jury would decide justly, according to the evilloorce, and upon a fair sad full view of the whole of the case. The Cermet, and the strangers withdrew from the room, and after &liberalistg for sheet ten minutes, the Jury delivered the verdict stated ie the paragraph, which 1 seed yes frees the Corower, together with a verdict of supine% for Te)int sad his serum', who were, therefore immediately liberated. Watehrater. Sept. It In reviewiug the conduct of the Inquest upon the death of Robert Campbell, the pesticide's of which I sent you yesterday, the first gaggles that eaterally occurs is, why employ Mr. Ashworth is an assessor ? It is the first instasce in which I have ever heard of an sensor to a Coroner. Bet the manner of Mr. Ashworth's appointment, end his course of proceed. ing throeghoot the Inquest, particularly 'tacit, my surprise. Mr. Barrow was enormity for Taylor and his mese, and Mr. Ashworth was retained es their idle cute. Yet upon this occasion lie occupied the station and exercised the Wilma of a Judge. I cannot suppose that such a CM bosomy precedent. or can be reconciled with the principles of English janiprodence. It is quite incredible that Baton Wood could have sag. ',tied of sanctioned such an espedient, I. egged a lawyer an apportenity of speaking at so Inquest, of, in point of fact, assuming the privileges of the Core. en, altheegh that venerable Judge's respected same has been quoted, as I stated to you to my lest. If, iodised, a Barrister, retained for the Stalled, were thus allowed to act the part of the Coroner, he might, with semi nerds' of dexterity and preparation of evidence, amities so to manage us to transfer the charge of plit ftom his own clients to other persons. Bet what occasion cao a Coreuer hive for an asses sor ? Either the Corsair Is twilled for the perfor. mums of his duty, or ha is not. If qualified, be does net require an assessor; and If out qualified, be ought set to have been elected. Mr. Milos was elected to Ibis ofice through the Inlioesce of she Magistrates, who thought proper to recommend him as a successor to his father, ohs held the office for many jests. Upon the dissent behaves the shorties on the In. quest I do out think it necessary' to comment. Every one cam easily appreciate the statement of Campbell's having takes a back-doer open his back to shelter kimsell from the sieves of a mob who were immedi ately in his heels, who in fact dragged him from the boom of t)se ass who gave this evidence. There were, I recollect, ff. _ die _mot stories about the Anal attack made upon Campbell after he less knock. ed down before the door of Taylor. Dot this die. sent 100 see ved,actordiag to the kiosk of Mr.Ashwortb, only to moires the main feet. Campbell is, on all heeds, stated to bate Ws a person of very tiniest character, sod to hews acted very outrageously on the morning be come by his death, by firing his pistols, sod taunting the people with abusive language. Mr. Ashworth himself indeed professed to deplete the of the deceased, while be dwelt upon this good listeotiows sad loyal character.
