First, that in markets open to all the world, free la bour sugar, as it is termed, cannot compete with that product 1 by slave labour; and secondly, as the price of sugar in England is en linty dependent on that of the cheapest market on the Continent , de Wee India Owners have not hitherto derived the slightest ad vantage from their nominal les. protecting duty. If East Italia sugar regulated prices abroad, there might be some grounds for the assertion ; but when such eventrarrives, it will be time enough to speak of themonopely of our Western Colonies. BOUNTY. We have now to investigate the nature of the Bounty. By the Cemeolidntion Act of Customs, 59 Geo. 111. cap. 52, the duty on eager was fixed at 3es., and the drawback 0:1 single refined at 465. per cwt. But permission was given to the Lords of the Treasury, to remit Is. of the duty, lithe average price in the Gazette should be below 495. per mitt. ; 2s. if below 485.; and 3s. if below 475.; while the drawback of 469. continued as before- It is well known the price of sugar has long been far below 475. ; the 3s. duty has conactluently been remitted, making the duty now paid 275. It is apparent, therefore, at once, that the exporter of refined sugar pos se-inn an advantage of 3s. per cwt. on muscovado, or 4s. 71d. on Whiled ; and the first object is to ascertain what this costs the Pea ion. Very considerable delusion exists in this particular. By the returns ordered to be printed by the House of Commons on the 30 h March last, the bounty is stated at 844,440. 28s. Hid.; a per. von would thus, on firszconsideration, be prompted to exclaim, what relarge boon do the West Indians enjoy ! He would, however, in So doing, run into a very great error. Much the larger peetion of r i aru:unt, classed under the head of bounty, should be deo°. drawback, being merely the repayment of the duties when lispouttion takes pieces. It is certainly not in conformity with the usual acauracy of Mr. Irving (the leepector.General of Imports lindsiagenua, to have given case to this ambiguity, from the man ner Ss IMO he has made out the returns. It is unnecessary to observe, drat before the refiner commences bis manufacture the • tluirboh him id and as we hive no right to tax the people abooi. se ; being made to the Continent, the duty origi rAWF ZOOM be drawn back by the exporter. In place, then, . s* • sum going into the pockets of the West Lidiaus, as g rimed., the account will stand as follows : total amotot of payments made on British relined sugar amounn, amber been stated, to 844,444/. • and it is to be observed, that this apgertaias to the year ending sth January, 1824, and not the sth Jemmy, agge, The quantity thee otrelined sugar which has received the draw back, will be 367,147 cwt. equal to 624,153 cwt. alusoovado, ac cording to the Government proportion of 34 cwt. of die latter to 20 of the former. Three shillings per cwt. has been remitted; and it is obvious that this taken on the above quantity, will give the net amount of • •what should he properly termed boanty. This sum, amounuag to only 93.6231. lone far short of what is stated by the Asti. Colonial writers. To prevent misunderstanding in this reeptet, the returns should have been made out differently. The drawback would then appear to be - - 4750,821 Bounty - - - - - . 93.623 Total repayment out of the Customs - 044,444 Having thus shown that the clamour against the amounts of this boon are perfectly unwarranted, a few observations are necessary to explain its further operation as concerns the West India in terests. For this purpose 1 cannot do better than quote the words of the Chancellor of the Exchequer on opening his Budget the 28th of February last. He stated " that it appeared the drawback was calculated upon the high duty, and in point of fact the revenue received& duty of 275. and paid a drawback of 30s. This could be Founded on no trite principle, and could be favourable to none of the interests of this country. It could not be expected that foreign porters, who were always quicksighted enough to see opportunities of heaping all sorts of restrictions upon our commerce, should not perceive that this difference of three shillings between the duty and the drawback would come to their treasury. And the fact was, that it did so ; for they imposed higher duties upon sugars imported Irons this country than from any other, or than it was reasonable they should par." The accuracy of this may be judged of from the conduct of some of the Cu, tinental States. On the Ist January, 1824, the Russian Government published an ukase, Munising a duty of 2 sib. R. and 60 cop. on every pod! of Igo. The effect of this duty has amounted in arly to a prohibition. aYe find by official documents that the quantity of refined sugar exported to Russia, year end. trig 6th Jan. was, 1820, 153 cwt. 585qrs. 161 b. ; while that ending the sth Jan., 1825, the quantity was only 2,822 cwt. Bth. This mea•ure of Russia has been imitated by the Austrian Go vernment. In the port of Trieste, to which we were in the habit of exporting largely, the duties have been materially advanced. According to the new tariff of October last, fl. ff. Refined Sugar, in loaves, is raised trout - 15 to 164 Crushed Stipa - - . -11 7-10 161 AU other Powder Sugar for ()racers - - 9 12 While Sugar for Refiners are - - 6 8 Grey brown ditto - . - - 3 4 The effect of this regulation must be very apparent. By levying a higher duty relatively on Refined (foods, it must operate sten °ugly to the detriment of our .rode, and mercantile men in Mincing lane know well that comparatively few shipments have latterly been made to this former outlet for the staple of our colonies. Even in Holland the same system prevails. The duty on Alas- covado is only about fit. per cwt. if imported in Dutch ships, led. I If in foreign ships. But refined sugar is visited with a duty of 30e. I per cwt., which; when contrasted with that paid on the raw article, may justly be termed an entire prohibition. These circumstances fully corroborate the views of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and they imperiously demand the consideration of every AI amber of Parliament, both for the 'impose of showing the troemanner in which the West India interests are affected, and of exhibiting the mode in which foreign Governments meet the commercial liberality of our own Legislature. There is yet one word more to advance relative to the bounty, and that is as to the principle of its continuance. On this head the regulation can be satisfactorily clended. To the supporters of free trade the very name of bounty is peculiarly repugnant. Butait must not be for a moment supposed that the principles on abide this bounty rests are in the least degree at vs-' mince with a freemillpor with that policy which the Adniinistra- ' tion is now so judiffigialy adopting. Its advocates never contended that it should continue perpetually. but only so long as to prevent its cessation from being injurious either to particular interests or to the general welfare of the country. Supposing it to be -1 benefit, it was urged that its removal would ntcessarily reduce prices, which would have the e ff ect of putting some of the exhausted lends of the old Colonies out of cultivation, and that thus dimi nishing our exports would naturally hold out a direct stimulus far Foreign Powers to prosecute the Slave Trade with increased ardour. It was even admitted that if this disposition on the part .of the Continental Nations could be presumed always to continue, it would be difficult to justify it, as a lapse of some years would still give rue to similar arguments. But it was on account of 31inleters continually declaring that they would even tually succeed is stopping the traffic in slaves, that remon strances were used tot them, not to impede their own efprts until the trade was generally determined piracy. On their own grounds did the appeal rest; for as they maintained that in a few ears they would have succeeded in their negotiations, so for those few years only was the bounty demanded. It ought, moreover, to be observed, that if it be an advantage, East India sugar equally participated. Now, as the anti-slavery party uniformly advances the Interests of the East India traders, in opposition to those of the West Indies, it will afford an admirable specimen of its fairness and impartiality, derounring to the public that undue preference is granted to the on; while in reality that of the other is similarly bilis Led. ' low Peesiassa Board of Trade has just introduced smile H coy considerable changes in our Colonial policy. The is intended shall expire on the Ist of July, 1826. It armament he doubled but that the same strict regard to justice and vested rights will here be observed as has marked other innovations. The relations between mortgagee and planter, and indiol I'Sie oeneral nature of the Colonial trade, oblige the greeter porde% of the produce of the West Indies to be shipped: to this country. Na new arrangements, therefore, as to facilities of trade, given to the Colonies in their intercourse with foreign na tions, oth come into operation for a considerable period; and it would be meet unjust not to delay the removal of the bounty until such arningements are completed. This has no relevance to its being or not being an advantage; it is simply, that the change may not inflict an injury on the refiners, or on other interests. I have now, I hope, satisfactorily shown that the a...onions of the individeals whole names are prefixed to this communication, are utterly destitute of feundation. If they again conic forward in public with such idle declamation, let them at all e.ents, at the same time, attempt some reply to this exposition. If not, the voice of public opinion cannotalaud either their knowledge of pole ties! economy or their candour. May 15, 1826. INVESTIGATOR.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, SATURDAY, Maw 14. THE KING V. CONSTABLE. ESQ. This was an indictment agairst a M igistrate of the county a- Kert for a misdemeanor. Woen the case was called on at the last Assist's at Maidstone. the prosecutor, finding that =lases one of the principal witne sse s, was MI in attendance, d ceeding, and the case was made a remand until the next A seise& On a former day 11,.

Mr. Alas ItY•TT atd Mr. DOWLING now showed Cffilse i llN the rule, and produced a ff idavits, showing that the witness be come suddenly ill, and was obliged to retire to a neighbouring public house, and go to bed, and that his indisposition continued for several days afterwards. The Cotter put it to Mr. Gurney whether the application was not answered 31r. Gun sEe said he believed it was, and the rule was dis charged. THE LINO V. WILLIAM LORTWO. This defendant bad been convicted at the last Dorsetshire As sizes of a riot, and was now brought up for judgment. The de fendant was son to a person who had been pan proprietor of the Exeter Subscription Coach, in which the defendant's brother had also a share. Mr. Winter, and other proprietors, having, as wan alleged by the defendant, dispossessed defendant's father and brother of their shares in the coach, for not conforming to the re. gulations of the Company, the defendant became incensed at his father's and brother's supposed wrongs. On thr day mentioned in the indictment, the Subscription Coach, in which were several pas sengers, stopped at Dchester to change horses, and it was proved that the defendant insisted upon his tither's horses being put to as usual. Finding his purpose could not be erected, he. with the as. sistance of others. cut the tram and reins, and yoking his father's horses to the coach, drove of with it. For this offence he was now brought up, it being alleged that the lives of the passengers were in imminent peril Irons tire violent conduct of the defendant and his party. His brother had. on • former occasion, been sentenced to two months' imprisonment for the part he had taken in the transaction. The father was also prosecuted, but died before trial, at the age of 75. The defendant now put in affidavits, urging his father's wrongs in excuse of the violence he had committed. Mr. C. F. WILLIAMS addressed the Court in mitigation of pu nishment. ..... Mr. Sergeant PELL was heard in aggravation, and The Coon?, taking all the circumstances of the case into con sideration. sentenced the defendant to two months' imprison. meat in Ilchester jail, and to find sureties for good behaviour for three years. THE LING V. EDWARD MARTIN LIVERMORE AND EDWARD MUNLOP, ESQ. Mr. BROUGHAM—I am to apply to your Lordships for a rule to show cause why a criminal Information should not be filed against two persons, of the names of Edward Martin Livermore, the printer, and Edward Dunlop, Esq., the proprietor, as :hey ap pear upon the affidavits 1 have, of a paper called the Telescope. My Lords, I move this upon the part of Lord Kennedy.. who states that when he came to town yesterday morning he perceived, for the first time, the following paragraph relating to himself in the paper I have alluded to, which appears to have been published on the first of May. though he only saw it yesterday morning, having been in Yorkshire. Ills Lordship is prevented bringing an action, apprehending that the course lately taken of moving for sa injuuction in the Court of Chancery might delay the proceed ings. I will now read the passage :—" It was reported yesterday that Lord K —v, , the celebrated shot, had been detected in a situ ation with the wife of a respectable commoner, which may lead to the employment of the gentlemen of the long robe, if the injured husband be not already satisfied with the chastisement he inflicted on the spot." Now, after first swearing that he believes the words Lord K—y apply to him, and no one else, and that the sub stance of the statement that he was caught in a situation that left no doubt of a criminal connexion between him and the wife of a person stated to be a respectable commoner, is false ; he then gives a contradiction to the whole, which would make any person who has not seen the length to which liceptious writers of the present day have gone in the public papers, astonished at the publication of what is-an mere, and so foul as it in, a mere fiction: he says that he has never been detected in any situation with the wife of a respect able commoner, or any other commoner, or any other person, that could lead to the employment a the gentlemen of the long robe, or taking any legal stets whatever against hint, the deponent; nor has any injured husband, or any other person whatever, inflicted, or attempted to inflict, any chastisement or other outrage or assault whatsoever on this deponent, and that the whole of the said para graph is altogether false and libellous, and without any foundation or colour of truth whatever, and intended to calumniate the charac ter of this deponent, and injure hint in the estimation of his family, his friends, and the public. Lord Chief Justice ABBOTT—Take a rule to show cause. HABEAS CORPUS. Mr. PLATT moved for s writ of Habeas Corpus to a Mr. John Gurley, commanding him to bring up the body of his daughter, who in 1822 had married a young man named Stamford, from whom, after cohabiting with hint for a few months, she was forcibly taken away by her father, and since unlawfully kept and detained. The COURT, under the circumstances stated, granted the writ. DUEL. Mr. WHITCOMB moved for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against Mr. John Sayre, for chal lenging Mr. Michael Jones to tight a duel. The parties were described in the affidavits as gentlemen, but the Learned Counsel had reason to believe that they were respectable farmers, occupying their own estates in Shropshire. On the day mentioned in the affidavits, Mr. Jones was looking after his flock on a neighbour ing hill, when he met Mr. Sayre. The right of depasturing on the hill had been in litigation between the parties, and Mr. Savee, addressing Mr. Jane?, said. If you will meet me here to-morrow morning, at six o'clock, with a pair of pistols, we'll settle our dis putes finally; and if you have not pistols I'll lend you mine." Under these circumstances the Application was made. The CounT said it appeared to be a matter which might be settled by some other tribunal, and therefore refused the Rule. The Court sat till half-past six o'clock. SECONDARIES' OFFICE....SATIIRDAY, MAY 14. CORNWALL MINES. HALL V. VIVIAN AND OTHERS. At half-past twelve o'clock this day an inquisition was taken in this cause, before the Under-Sheriff and a Special Jury, for the purpose of ascertaining the amount of damages sustained by the plaintiff, in conacquence of his mining proprriy in Cornwall haring been seized, withheld from him, and partly sold, under process which issued out of the Court of Stannarv, in that county, ot which the defendant was the Vice-Warden. Judgment was suffered to pass by default. The damages were laid at 20.000:. Counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. BROEGITAM, Mr. TINDAI.T., and Mr. ABRAHAM ; for the defendant, the COMMON SERGEANT MA Mr. PARKE. air. A Biutuam opened the pleadings. Bnouomam stated the case. The plaintiff, Mr. Hall, was, he said, a gentleman of great celebrity in mining pursuits previous to the month of April, 10?2, when the transaction arose which led to this inquiry. He belonged originally not to Cornwall, but to Northumberland, which the Jury would hereafter find was a material ingredient in this case. The principal defendant was also a gentleman of great celebrity, and the father of Sir Hussey Vivian. He was the ice-Warden of what was called the Court of Stan. caries, the Warden of which was the Marquis of Hertford. This Court of Staanaries was one of those Courts of ancient jurisdiction which proceeded by ruler of their own—rules unknown, indeed diametrically opposite to those of the Courts of Common Law, with which the public at large were fortunately more familiar. Lucky would it be, if those persons who looked with so much dis satisfaction at the ancient form of trial by Jury, and who were so alive to the possible mistakes of Jurors, would just turn their eyes to these Courts of local jurisdiction, which were exempt from the public eye, and taste a little of the bliss they were so calculated to administer. Such a contrast would, he had no doubt, remove much of the prejudice in certain h;-;h quarters, touching the pos sible errors of Juries. The jurisdiction of this Vite-Warden was over all stannaries, or questions .arising out of them--that was, in plain English, over the concerns of all tin mines (Stannery was a Latin word meaning Tinnery). Now this power thd I.Ot `l l to other metals or minerals, besides tin ; it did not affect Black Jack (a laugh), which was partly copper, and by . name vulgarly applied to the Noble Warden in this county, just as Copper Jack was to his Vice-Warden. Black Jack had zinc in it. and necessarily some copper, but no tin. Copper had, however, of late much superseded and diminished the use of tin working in these mines ; but, nevertheless, the Stanhary Court contended for a right over the copper mining as well as the tin. The process of this Court was very pecaliar—first went forth a man, who said the proprietor of the mine owed him 51. ; then out sas issued a summons for the party to appear in Court ; this was followed by an attachment, and then came a decree, which nailed up the mining property till the Court thought proper to decree its sale ; and every body acquainted with tech summary processes of sale, must know that the produce was uniformly not the most, but the leant, which an article could fetch under every possible disadvantage.— But this was not all ; the process comprehended not only the debt of the particular individual who sued out the process, I but all other:: generally to whom the party was or might be indebted. So that it far exceeded, in the sweep of its jurisdiction, the sphere of the Court of- Parliament, the High Court of Chancery (an it was called), and all the other courts known in and about Westminster Hall. But odd enough was all this, when it was his duty to tell the Jury, that there was not • shadow of foundation for the assumed jurisdiction of this Court, in the manner In which it had been acted on. They had no jurisdiction over copper.works; the whole thing was admitted by the defendant himself to be a trespass, by his su ff er i ng j u d gme nt to go by ' de fault. Two years ago he contended he was right, but on coming I to town, and consulting the Common Sergeant and Mr. Searlett, they laughed at his assumed jurisdiction; they told him—" 0, you must keep this law of yours to the batnnariea ; it won't do in town. We lawyers hue had no such law since the time of Noah, and we are not Instructed before the flood." (A laugh.) They then ra tionally advised the Vice-Warden to revoke his plea, and throw himself on the mercy of a Jury, in the Sheriff's Court. There was eine very peculiarileauty in the construction of this Cornish Court. They had been already told who were the Warden and Vice. Warden, but the Suretavywas an attorney of the nameof Edwards, who was also a respectable mar, and who indeed acted as the judge, 'the assessor, the expounder of the law fur the Staunarics. Mr. THE BRITISH PRESS. Vision, the Vice-Wanda', was a very respectable country gentle man, but no lawyer, nor could anyb od y expect him to know more of law than the lead did. Of that lead be was an excellent judge, for by it he made his gold ; hot law had he none. The Court, how ever, adjudicated upon matters of law ; but how did it proceed ? ‘Vhy, Mr. Edwards, the attorneyi . nodded his head, and said, " this is the law." iVell, Mr. Vivian nodded his head in assent ing response, and forth came the injunction, the decree, the order of sale, and all the other machinery for the speedy conversion of property. The constitution of the Court was first odd ; the juris diction of it assumed odd: but then the drollest thing of all remained to be told, which was, that Mr. Edwards practised professionally in this Court. and had the heavy duty imposed on him of taxing his own costs. (A laugh.) And why not ? Ile best knew the value of his own labours, and the rare at which he thought they ought to be estimated. And this opened a famous field of action, in a Court in which the party suing out process not only acted for himself but for the whole world at large. The qui tam plaintiff could sue for the Crown, but the Stannary man distanced him hollow in the compendious sphere of his opera tion. So much for the Court—now as to the malice of the par ties who had injured the plaintiff. There was for a long time a strange prejudice in the county of Cornwall against . fin s— not Frenchmen, whom their ancestors called mounseo s ; but they designated as foreigners all persons horn out of their county, so that to the Cornish man the Somerretshireman was a foreigner. Suppose the men of Northumberland (of whom the plaintiff was I one) were to catch a Cornish miner near their works and say to him " Now we have you here in the North, we shall speedily dispute of you ;" why Cornwall would say, " llow can you ? it is we„ not you, that have the Stannary." Northumberland might reply, " We too have our Stanni . ry for overwhelming a man . " ' and exemplify the fact by pitching him headforemost down one of their coal-pits. He admitted that to suppose such an act would be more cruel, but not less illegal, than the plan of ruin under cover of assumed law, which was acted upcn by the Cornish men in this, process of their Stannary. The Learned Gentleman then recurred to the particulars of the plaintiff's case. It appeared that in April 1822 Mr. Hall was processed for two debts by persons named Heath and Robins, of thirty.three pounds and twenty-five pounds each ; for these debts, execution was eventually had upon his pro perty, though all along he protested against the jurisdiction of the Court of Stannnari-s ; his mines were locked up, his mills stop ped, his works broken-down and injured, and sold for little or nothing, although there was enough to have sold for a much larger sum than the claim left untouched. And in this state had his property been withheld and withdrawn from him from April 11,'22 to the December of that year. During this dila pidation of his property he had still his clerks unemployed, as they were to maintain, while his mines were filling with water through neglect ; indeed, one of his men was really drowned. The COMMON SE RGEAN T—ln your schedule of damages you have made no charge for the drowned man. Mr. BR OVOITA m admitted there was no charge made, but there might possibly have arisen a charge of murder, if loss of life had attended this illegal proceeding. He implored the Jury to take this peculiar injury of the plaintiff into their consideration, and award such damages as would prevent a recurrence of a similar out rage on the part of any assumed authority of petty jurisdiction. Documentary evidence was first put in, containing a series of admissions of the parties in the cause, relating to the duties of is suing the processes, the names and authorities under which they paosed, &c. Several witnesses then proved the execution and sale of the goods ; the protest against both, and a counter-protest made by the auc tioneer, as well as the nature of the mining machinery seized, and the prices paid for it. William Knight was clerk to the plaintiff at the time of the sale. He heard one of the defendants say that the mi e was a good one, and if he had money to work it he could make enough by it to ride in his carriage. Several persons had debts due to them from the mine. The mine stopped working after the first of May, in conse nuence of the injunction. William Pcncrease, agent to the plaintiff, stated that the mine, if profitably conducted, would produce a clear profit of 6901. per month, by employing 120 men. Mr. CliilCoCli. a solicitor, of Cornwall, stated, that it was the practice of the Vice-Warden's Court to grant injunctions, and or der the sale of mining machinery and stock fur the payment of debts. This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. De WMA sr addressed the Jury for the defendants. It was a case which required that compensation should be made to the plain tiff for the loss he had sustained ; but he had not proved that he had sustained any loss by not working a mine which might have entailed on him a heavy loss. Mr. Hall represented himself by his Counsel as a man of wealth ; why did he rot pay his mason and his blacksmith, which would have prevented all the present proceeding!? Mr. Hall purchased the mine in 1120, and an 1822 he was beginning to work it with fourteen men, not one of whom was called to prove what sort of ore lie got, or whether the mine was likely to leave a profit or a loss. If there was any profit, the books of the party would be produced. The witness Pencreane, in the warmth of his imagination, stated the profit that might be made at six hundred and ninety pounds a month, but he was obliged to admit that nothing had been made, nor waathere any evidence that he could have worked the mine to any advantage during the time die plaintiff was in possession. It was' the established custom in Cornwall to sell the tr.,rterials of mines for the payment of debts incurred in working them; and the defendants had no notion that they were exceeding the law when they made the sale. They only wished to receive payment of their debt, and had Mr. Hall paid them, the proceedings would have been instantly stopped. He la mented that the plea of justification hail been withdrawn from the record, as he conceived it could be well supported by the custom and the facts. At all events, nothing more was necessary to get rid of all the inconvenience, but that Mr. Hall should pay his debts. Two days before the sale, indeed, he offered to pay the two credit ors who had commenced the proceedings ; but then it was impos. aible to restore nim the property. unless he paid all who had then proved debts against the mine. The action was an e•.periment on the credulity of the Jury, in the expectation that a greater profit might be made of the mine in that room, than even could be made of at in Cornwall. The Under• Sheriff charged the Jury, that as there was no evi dence of any malicious intention on the part of the defendants, they were only called on to remunerate the plaintiff for the actual loss he had sustained. The Jury retired for a short time, and returned a verdict—Da• mages, Nine Hundred Pounds. FROM SATURDAY A' IG 117 'S GAZETTE. Whitehall, May 11, 1825.

The peculiar advantages of these Teeth are, they or 3 te as a support to those which remain in the mouth (if any). and Pee' vent their approximation, and even loose teed' are held Um in the sockets by their aid: they may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with facility, and will continue securely fixed on the Gums they will retain th lir colour, perform mastication, assist articula tion, and cannot be distinguished from those of natural growth. By this invention whole_or half sets of teeth are made to act with of have teeth not arc experienced ease and freedom.

When the teeth fail, the deatrur. Lion of their sockets invariably ensues; the one cannot exist without the other; the process of absorption commences immediately; the tooth is extracted, or, in many cases, the gum and sockets save away, and cause the teeth to become loose and drop out; when the teeth are gone and their sockets absorbed, a great vacuum is left id the mouth, which occasions every muscle in the face to be dotoet etl, and the eyes, the nose, the lips, and the chin, are sadly . dn. figured and drawn from their original position. These Artificial Teeth are constructed to supply this defect of Nature, and Br!' dually to restore the features to that uniformity so essentially regal.' tote to a youthful appearance and perfect articulation; the court. vance being mechanical, it is performed without any ear Pau e l."
