A few days since, Env workmen were employed on the roof of tt a house of Mr. Williams, in the Kent ru.td, they accidentally let fall a roll of sheet lead *between the rafters.

Mitchell, against whom an indictment bad been preferred for directing abusive and seditious language against the Prince Regent and the two llouses of Parliament, at a Radical Reform Meeting, held on the 4th of October last, at Skircoat Moor, near Halifax ; and for then and there using expressions tending to excite the peo.de to _partition the estates of the great nobility ; and, among others, of Earl Fitz.villiam 'lt will be recollected that Mr. S Wortley referred to these latter expressions, without stating who had used them, more than once during the last sitting tu Parliament, as indicating the nature of the views entertained by the Returners of York. shire ; and that, ke.did not cease to hold them up to public notice, until he was reminded .by Mr. Brougham, that to tell one half the truth was just as useless as to join to it one half of another story , and that the reel inference would be very different from that which Mr ‘Vcrtley had drawn, when it was known that it was Mitchell who used them. At the same time it was added, that Mitchell was the individual who had introduced the infamous spy Oliverdo the Reformers of 1 orkshire, and was more than suspected of acting in that capacity .him ' self. The present indictment due s not urigin-te with Government, or of any of its Agents, but with those who are politically hostile to .the individual members composing it. It will remain, thetefore, to be seen, whether Ministers will take this prose cation upon themselves, or, by nut doingeo, remain liable to the imputation of wishing to screen a man like Mitchell. It is calculated that a person has 1500 oppor tunitils of leaving London in the course of the twenty-four hours, by stage coaches, including the repeated trips of the coaches, which ply the short distances. ltis understood, that about 300 stage coaches pass through Hyde Park Cotner daily.— There are about forty Brighton couches. There are eighty-four coaches belonging to Birmingham, of which forty are doily . to Chester nineteen, of which sixteen are daily ; to Manchester seventy, of which fifty-four are daily. In the year 1770 there belonged only two stage coaches to Man. cheater, one to London, the other to Liverpool, end they went only twice a week ; there ore now twenty coaches pass backward and forward daily between these two places. There are sixty coaches belonging to Liverpool, of which fifty-six are daily ; to Preston, twelve ; to York, eighteen, of which ten are daily ; to (lull, twelve ; to Newcastle, six ; to Glasgow, thirteen ; to Edinbxrgb, .thirty-nine ; I to Aberdeen, nine; and to Inverness, three.
