RICHARD DLACOW. iv this case the Defendant had been convicted of ■ libel on her late 'Majesty. The libel was coo tained in a sermon preached on the 26th Novem ber, 1820, in the church of St. Mark'., Liverpool, and was afterwards printed and published by the Defendant. It will be recollected by our readers that the libel way of a very gross description, and charged the Radicalaand Reformers with having gone farther than the Jaciibines who paid their adoration to the Goddess of Reason, whilst the latter had " elevated the Goddess of Lust on the Pedestal of Shame," and spoke of her Majesty as compass ing see and land with her paramour previous to liar return to England. The Defendant being placed on the floor. Mr. Deleeuw moved for tilt judgment of the Court'. Mr. Justice HOLROYD read his IMAa of the evidence taken at the trial. No affidavits were put in on either side. The LORD CHIEF Jurricg then addressed the Defendant, and told him that if he had any thing to offer to the Court in mitigation of punishment, they were ready to hear him. The Defendant declined offering any observations to their Lordships. Mr. Baouctiam said he did not feel it necessary to 'hitches. many words to the Court on this occa sion. They had heard the libel read, and the evi• deuce by which it was proved, but they had not heard the defence which wits attempted to be made at the trial. He would venture to say, there never was such a mass of foul caltunnious imputations uttered in a court of 'maser before. Mr. Justice BAY Lay observed, that that did not appear now before the Court. Mr. BROUGHAM said it was for that very reason he had mentioned it ; and if their Lordships had witnessed it, he thought they would have been of opinion that a more disgraceful exhibition never took place in a court of justice. With respect to the libel itself, he would only •h+erve that it was delivered from the pulpit, and it was not the first time that the Defendant had been convicted of a similar offence. Mr. Justice BEST said, there was no affidavit of that fact, Mr. BROUGHAM apprehended the conviction itself, being on the records of the Court, war +alb cient evidence of that fact. He had an affidavit that the person let convicted wins the Defendant on the floor. The Learned Counsel was about to bead up the affidavit to he read, when The LORD CHM , JUSTICR said, in point of res gularits. all offidarits should be read before any address to the Coast, Mr. Beouousu said, he did not feel it necessary to press the point on their Lordships. The affidavit was accordingly withdrawn. Mr. BROUGHAM resumed. Their Lordships knew the character, which he could not say the Defendant did, but which he ought to support as a clergyman ; yet that person was one of a oa. sl.iracy, whose object was to load the character of a late illustrious personage with the falsest and most atrocious imputations. The only difference between the secret conspirators and this Defendant was, aot that they had greats. malignancy or were less time. serving, but only in having less decency end pru dence than they. He had come forward sod courted the notoriety attendant on his procedure at the trial, and continued to court it now who a al. tending that fate which awaited him. He (Mr. Brougham) left him to the judgment of their Lord ship., satisfied that it was wholly superfluous to NMI a syllable to the bare repetition of the abrader. t A her a deliberation of about a quarter aim hour, Mr. Justice BAYLEY delivered the sentence of the Court. His Lordship said it was a most pain ful duty to pass the sentence of the Court on a clergyman of the Church of England, for a libel printed and published by him, us and for the sub stance of a sermon preached by him in St. Mark's Chapel. He believed this was a rare instance of so sacred a place !toying been perverted to such 34 purpose. It ought to be with very differeut feel ings that every ouc should enter such a place, and the minds of persons should not be fixed on living cha racters. All had faults enough of their own to amend. without looking to those of their neighbour. This was a subject calculated to produce feelings which certainly ought not to be produced in people's minds at such a place. He (the Defendant) had exercised a very wise discretion in abstaining front saving any thing that day. His Lordship hoped that originated In u conviction mu his mud that his past conda-t hail been incorrect. The sentence of the Court was, that the Defen dant pay a tine to the King or 1,)0f. and be impri soned in the custody of the Murslial of the Mar shaken of that Court for six calendar months, and give security for good beinitiour for tire years, IJ I aaa self in 51)0/. raid two sureties in 100/. each. As soon os the sentence was ettssed the Defendant bowed to the Court and withdrew in custody of the tipstaff. Hr appeared about 54) or 55 years of age . The Court was much crowded dutiug the morning.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—'r Your affidavit goes as far as that ?" Mr. BLACKBURN said, his affidavit went still further. Mr. Justice BEST observed, that the application of Mr. Blackburn went to fix the venue in one par ticolor county. Mr. BLACKBURN admitted that it was so, but apprehended that was the privilege of the Plaintiff in actions like the present. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—."

On Saturday evening one of the late heroes of Chalk .1 Farde amid Blackheath applied at the office for the pistols which had been seized by the officers. It will be recollected I that when these parties were at Chalk Farm, Bacon, the I constable, had nearly lust his life when engaged with one of the gentlemen, by his pistol going off when it was close to Becon's body, but provideutially Le received no injwy.

On so inquiry taking place respecting the circisenstancei, Avery produced a warrant issued by the Lord Mayor against the Prisoner, the offence being charged to have been ems. Misted is the City of Landon.
