The I)!tendant has certairsty bestow.' nconsiderable praise on himsetti- for the , of repelling the abuse of others ; and 1 to admit it to be generally true as far as .ve it. There was a part of the Defend w when his publicetion justified the charac. yilty, which he has to.day put upon him. t he must burrow from those publics. .t 1 not from the present, to prove it. I ot have touched upon this pleat, but he melt personally to me, and says that I . •, ot to be a loyal man. I tun obliged to say , peelers *ed of no such knowledge: lam „.;., say that from any means in my power I uch knowledge as he ascribes tome. Hay • z "cd all former calumny against him, the it admits that the article in intuition is bad taste ; he wrote it in a hurry ; he at he was writing ; but as to any wish to affection in the minds of his Majesty's it is ridiculous. 6 ' It is true," he says, k with certain persons in the reign of . that foreign troops ought not to be re. o England ;" and he reads a passage from olication, protesting against the introduc. ;:, of each troops. I don't quarrel with this opi.. to of tee Defendant : if he thinks foreign troops -11 , not to be received into the English service, . let him indulge that notion : it is of no conse quence to any one else what his opinion is. But is this all ? Has he only set himself up as wiser thin the legislittere?' lie states that the acts of teat legislature were merely .acts of indemnity.; !.wt the contrary is the ease. There were iit i t ti ly, indemnity fur past offentes whieli it would •Ipst 6 cult to end out, and authorising his Majesty,* rise, by the firs' act, 10,000,, and by efie tio,l veld, 16,000 foreign lrooPs. • The numbers • ofe the German Legion are' 12;060, and theriT - 4ee• livid than one thousand. of them now cot ntry. The Defendant, - defending him. belt*, little adverted to the inatier of the libel: be stated his conduct and life jeserelly, and said that the libel , was merely a eto4e ot.

I shall jest call your attention to a few passages.in Jae libel, and then I am sure you will have a per. suasion which nothing can shake, that the objects of the ft I are such as I have represented them is h... As to the expression 46 they deserve it," 4c. it not p!ainly ironical, and intended. to reprea and tenet the men on account of their puniik.. wait ? Is it not the language of insult ? Does fie not mean to nose them for having been so des. telly a.. to submit to the German Legion ? I say, t. 4, that the Defendant plainly meant to reproach . the peoc,;l of Ely for not siding with the mutineers, in that usage where he says, " 1 tio not know what hoe% of a place Ely is," te. No man im. Teel w• e: of sense or apprehynsion to Mr. Cob b ett; and Uri . ly man similarly bleeped 'doubt that this was intended as f reproach .to the wit. ecsses of this scene ? And what was the scene? Why, tto se men whose duly it was to obey; of. -.4ltict officers for obedience, resistance, , sur. I 't.`"‘sliele 'silo besetting them, for what theythought 'yr their arrear of wages. To quell this mutiny s :orce uas procured from a neighbouring town : tt.! remit; era were brought to a Court Martial : tr iiietsc!ers were sentenced to a punishment, ts. whel •of which was not inflicted.

'r tan.: understands the word loyal, who such a paper - is this, in ordet to'ex. o„„ ..ernlllll Legion to the indignation of the .• • people, as foreigners. This was only a little MO tiny—[The Learned Attorney-General was We told that the Defendant had called it merely 66 ilkorderly conduct" —it was not even a mu. tiny then ! only disorderly conduct! The• paper from which Mr. C. takes his motto, the Courier, truly states that there had been a mutiny. It would be wasting time further to skew the object of this publication ; but I roust svy one ward by way of re. pelting theDefendaut's calumny against those brave, gallant, and loyal persons, who compose the Ger man Legion. There my have been some of them found to have occasionally miscondected them. selves ; but that their general ,conduct is such as has been described by the Defendant, I have taken pains to inquire, and I utterly deny. .Some of them may have been guilty of little excesses, and it is impassible to keep a large body of men free from them ; • but upon the. whole, there never was a body of men Of whom there was so little to atm. plain. I have no doubt that every complaint against them of every individual, finds its sway to the Commander in Chief; and therefore this is an as. certainable fact. From all those complaints which have found their way to Mr. Cubbett, no doubt a highly finished picture of their misconduct might be drawn. These woutd r however, be - only parti cular cases : their general conduct is such as I. have described. It his been stated to the Defen. dant by a particular individual, whom he named, that they were guilty of cowardice *at- Talavera. I confess the asserlion surprized me, because I knew, their conduct to have htvti directly the contrary ; and that out of four standards which were taken, three were so taken by the German Legion. This must have been • rather %an extraordinary effect of cowardice ; or else it mug have been strange that they' who had taken three standards should betray cowardice in tight. I cannot hear each caltstnny of brave absent fe. reigners, and not refute it; and this Ida in justice to them; not that the cause requires It; for the question for your • consideratien is not whether the German Legion be brave or not; but that they, being in the service of his Majesty, whether one object of this paper be not to revile them for in. flicting discipline upon his Majesty's native troops : and I sit - down without the smallest doubt but that you will be of opinion that the libel 'has -that tendency." Lord ELLENnononnu, Chief Justice.. the charged the Jury to the following effect :—" You have been assembkd, and are sworn to try an hiforination filed by his Majesty's -Attorney-General, against William Cohbett, elturging him with being the author of a lib l, intending to injure the King's • military service, and to represent that certain soldiers in the Local Militia o ere treated with oppression. This is, the sub- Stance of the charge and mischtef; and the question is, wile rebir this mischief be justly ascribable to • the libel in question,• and whether it be of that noxious teodency. • The Defendant has said in the course of, his defence, that' he has been i he sub ject of much calumny. Whether he has been so or no, 1 know not ; hut I am quite sure so•iu will divest your minds of every prejudice against the i /efenditnt, on account of either his actual or supposed conduct, and consider hint only upon the demerit imputed to him , :y this patch: too.

The libel proceeds:* " Poor Geatleman I he little Imagined how a yew genies „might find employment for sue% troops. Let Mr. Wardle look at my motto, and then say whether the Genus soldiers are of no sae." The " employment" bete talked of must have been that of chastising the mutineers; and the words, " useful earrloyment" are evidently used in an irunteal end calumnious sense. " He little imagined that they might be t made the means of compelling Eoglishmen to submit to that sort of discipline' which iv so conducive to the producing 'i n . them a disposition to defend the country at the risk of their` lives."

SECOND EDITION STITESAt.4 V OFFICE, Fire caloilt HIS ROYAL HIGHNEgS TIIE DUKE OF KENT. The Duke of Kafir having seen a recent Publi cation, entitled the " RIVAL Particss," in which he is charged with having sanctioned and encou raged the adoption and prosecution of measures tending to the manifest injury of a Brother's ho. nour and interests, it is imposvible that he should Out feel anxious to counteract immediately the impression which must dwell with the country, while such foul and unmerited aspersions tvinain unnoticed. To remove, they. fore, from his tha. ratter that stigma which would justitattach to its if it were not in his power to prove that tlpere hal not st any tithe existed the smallest foundation for a charge, at the very idea of which, every hottest man must recoil with horror and indignation— The Duke of KENT has determined to lay be. fore the Public the following Declaration, which was_ made and committed to paper by Captain phiai , riu the tath day of July last, in the pro. 40 1 7: t iv. Earl Of HARRINGTON and Colonel • z• V*ztr unit which was delivered to him, to be used at his discretion. At that rieriod, the Duke was induced to require this Declaration, with a view to his own satisfaction, in consequence of various reports and insinuations, which had gained circa. lation.—The communication °fit was consequently confined to his own family, and to some of his friends, and Be bed fiatered himself that it would be unnecessary to make any appeal to the Public, on a matter which affected himself exclusively; nor is it - *kilned sinetre concern, that he now finds himself under the •necessity of entering thus inbilely into a vindication of his conduct.
