EXTENT IN AlD.—Amidst the overwhelming di,. tress to which this county, in common with every other agricultural district in the kingdom, is at pre sent subjected, sod, is addition to its Insurrection Act privations and extraordinary Police burdens, we regret to learn, that government have thought proper to issue an extent lo aid against the county for the re covery of • considerable sun due to the consoiiJated fend, as advances for the making aid repair of roads, litt. SCA. This is a dreadful visitation at the present moment. If the gentry of the county who legislate for its local taxation Cr. to blame, so is the govern. meet, which ought Dot to have suffered arrears to ac cumulate crantrary to the wise provisions of the law that authorises such advances to be made from the Consolidated Fund. But the gentry will not be the only sufferers. The farmer's stock and the peasant's pig must termed these advances, to do which they bad already contributed their full share in the better days that are gone by and Estate in Aid, the rents of the lAndowaare will be the prioci offerers, fur their distress will be immediate and affliction without a remedy. We shall only add, t the time is extremely unfavour able for enforcing such an odious measure, and ought not to be chosen by either Government or local legis lators to redress their own wrongs at the expense of an industrious but impoverished people. —(Leiaster Jour.) Ma. FICIIISTANDIG.MT. Ferstandig, who, our l readers will remember, had been committed to the House of Correction at Belfast, for proposing to deli ver a lecture on the mistranslation of the Old sod New Testaments, and who had been re-loved by writ of Habeas corpus, to the King's Bench, Dahlia, has been liberated by the Chief Justice, and without ask. lag any bail arhaterer. Mr. F. having thus triotophep over the very injudiciously directed Magistracy of Belfast. was requested to remain and lecture in Hab ib'. This invitation he, however, declined, and re turned to Belfast immediately, to keep his promise with the public then. He has given two Lectures, and " considering the nature of the subjects," says the' Mahouts, • and the difficulty of following a Lecturer, speaking four differsai languages of the East, his audience on both sights was far greater than we could bare expected. For all this, however, Mr. Fentan. dig may say, " thanks to the errors of the religious fa. italic. Had sot certain officious clergymen* taken fright and run the Magistracy at me, I might have passed through Belfast without being able to flatter myself with a single auditor, in a Hebrew, Syriac, Chaldaic and Greek Lecture; bet now such is tie elasticity of public spirit, that if I lectured is High, Hatch, 1 should have a respectable medieste I' " To obtaia satisfaction for the personal injury he sustained (having lain ten days io a disgusting and odious pri. son) Mr. Ferstaadig, it appears, has brought his ac tion against Mr. Verner, the Sovereign of Belfast, for false imprisonment; an stelae in which all the Ma gistracy, including the Barrister, who bad concurred is the treatment, will no doubt, says The Is leArsaa, feel themselves involved.

When their Lordships entered the Court, the defend ants, It. T. W , Thomas Arrowsmith, and William Shackell, were called up to receive judgment. Mr. Justice BANAT said, the defendants were to re ceive the sentence of the Court for live libels against her late Majesty, published in their Newspaper, called the "John Bull, ' at different periods, vis. in February. March and April, 1821. He said it was not neeeseary for him to state any one of those libels, the ease having been very recently before the Court.—There could not be a doubt in point of law that every one was a libel.— They go greatly beyond that which is the legitimate lie t uieo of A public Newspaper, that ought to be a m'Yertotielt and oTepitbrOnate dlttnsams. sad not the medians Of priest* slander and malignity. At the time you, the defendants, said Mr. Justice BA TWIT, were brought up to receive the judgment of the Court, you offered nothing is mitigation of punishment, therefore there was nothing offered is aggravation. You are already under a sentence not *holly uncon nected w hit this matter, and it is a subject of consider. 'lion that no one of these libels has been published since that period. In the teatimes of one of you, els. Thomas Arrow basith, there is an affidavit put in by your medical at tendant, with one from yourself, stating that an addi tional confinement might endanger your life. As that is not the object of this Court, they do order and ad- Jodie that you. Thomas Arrowsmith, do pay a fine of 3001. to the King, and that you R. Thos. Weaver and Wm. Shackell be severally imprisoned in the King's Bench prison for the term of three months, and that you each do pay a fine of 1001.: and that you enter into re cognisance* for your good behaviour for five years, your selves in 5001. each, and two sureties in 3001. each ; and that you be further imprisoned until such fine be paid.

In the Chamber of Deputies of Baden • motion has been brought is, and received with acclatiNon ; the ob ject of it is contained in the following propositions, el which a Cososellur of State, as the medium of Go vernment, expressed formal approbation :- 1. The entrance of all French production, without exception, should be absolutely prohibited, sod the transit duties on these articles so augmented, that they should amount to a prohibition. 2. Similar measures should be adopted towards Hit Prussian Province? on the Rhine, unless Prussia &bolls, its exorbitant dudes of importation. 3. Similar measures should be proposed with respect to Holland and England. The prohibitory system of France and the Import Ditties of Prussia are given as the prinLip2l reasons for this system of strong defensive re-action, although Holland and England are also iccittiled. .
