But the fact is, that on an occasion of this nature, the general character -or Conner conduct of the complainant is not to be dwelt upon. For what is the case under consideration ?. A Prisoner complaining of a Gaoler,-----ancl is it an instirtneunt able objection or sufficient answer to such complaint, that some imprudence or mhconduct was attributable tb such Prisoner before his conuniital ? If, indeed, such an objection were admissible, a Gaoler might be as tyrannical as he pleased with impunity. For as one seldom becomes a Prisoner without some ire prudence or misconduct, if imprudence or miwon -, duct were held to invalidate a hi:miter's tes timony,- every Gaoler would be 'secure against accusation. But supposing an - Actually cutiviet ed felon were to complain of a gaoler's oppress Sion, does it follow that no attention should be paid to his complaint in consequence of his former guilt need not, however, proceed further in illustration of this point. The common sense of the public must spurn at the attempts of the . pekes partizans to, vindicate him, only by slandering his accuser.—lf, indeed, that accuser required implicit credence, it would he fair to scrtitinize his character and credi bility. But Mr. Marris dOes not appear to desire - that the public, or the Sheriff, should believe him ex clusively.—Ml he asks is enquiry, and - I should , think, from what I hear of Mr. Lister's character, that were such cases as Mr. Marris has laid before the public, communicated to him even by an anony mous writer—nay, had they reached hint as mere ru mour, that gentlentan would have felt it due to com mon humanity and official duty to institute an enquiry. —That such enquiry may take place is my wi,l► and hope.

A young woman was yesterday evening ob- I served (With he most painful sensations of those who witnessed the disgraceful scene), in a street leading from Blickfriars'-road, standing on the narrow ridge beneath one of the second floor windows, for the purpoie of cleaning it; where, from her confined position,and the unavoidable necessity of straining to the utmost the extent of her arm to reach the top of the window, she was every moment in danger of s i falling, and consequently fracturing her ..cull on the pavement ; or experiencing the still more dreadful death of being transfixed by the spikes of the railing beneath. Being assured of the extensive circulation of your Paper, t have been induced to transmit to you these observations, in hopes of their reaching the notice of the tenant of the house in question, who may, perhaps, be actuated by the same of public exposure, to prevent the repetition of such a sceue.
