Tile LORD CHANCILLOR was occupied a consi derable time in hearing Counsel relative to the writ of error which he bail formerly granted on a case decided in the Lord Mayor's Court. The fur ther proceedings were delayed till Tuesday. After hearing a few bankrupt petitions, the Court adjourned at one o'clock. COUP.T OF KING'S BENCH, Wrirr3mrstra, CIIARGES OE LIBEL Joseph Russell, of Birniiiighain, was this day brought up to plead to an information laid against bun, fur selling the Second Number of a publica tion called the Republican, which was alleged to monis' a seditious and blasphemous libel. 'hr Defendant had been brought up, on a foriner day, to plead to this information , but hi. plea was postponed, as he was in custody after a conviction, b,r which he has since received the judgment of the Court, for otlimg Mr. Hutie's Political Litany. the Porwhes, for publi%long winch Mr. flone was hini seif acquitted by a London Jury. The Defendant was this morning informed, that the counts of the information for selling the second cumber of the Republican, had been read over to him on a former thy, and he had postponed his plea. He was now called upon either to plead to this information. or traverse his plea until next Term. He replied. that he was refused copies of this niformation, and in that state was unable to plead. How could lie make out his defence until he was fairly put in possession of the charge made against bum Ile could not comprehend it from its length, in the hurry of the reading over by the proper officer. lie therefore hoped the Court would order him copies—it was impossible for him either to plead or to defend himself without them. 111 t. Justice flotuoy co said he had no power to order copies to be delivered contrary to the usual caurse. The Defendant replied, that he had no money to p a y fur conies; the whole of his property had been as-igiiett over for the benefit of his creditors, moil how was he to get them ? lie repeated he could nut N o to trial without copies; and asked whether the Court would out allow him to plead in forma pan penis, and then to have copies without payment. Mr.Justict 1-14Thacitu informed !inn that hr must first plead—that was the Br.t step to be taken : • he might then make the customary affidavit of his not tieing worth 51.. awl solicit permission in the punier form, to be considered by the Court as coming be fare them informers parperis. The Defendant bowed to the Court, and pleaded Not Gailty. INQUEST AT OLDIIAII. Mr. SCARLET? moved the Court that the rule fir obtained on a former day, might be made absolute against Joseph Taylor : it was for a cri minal information against that person, for circulat ing what purported to be a ileporibun of a medical (Gentleman named &noshes', among the Jurors, ut Oldham, then sitting iu inquest upon the body of John Lees, and while their verdict was pending. The information charged Joseph Taylor with cir culating she paper alluded to, for the purpose of prejudicing the minds of the Jury, whilst delibe rating as their oaths ups's the matter before them. —The Learned Counsel said no cause was skews against his rule, which was therefore made absolute. Our readers will recollect that Mr. Scsat.Err, his original motion, applied to have 11r. Earn *law included in the information with .I,oireph Taylor, but the Court did not see sufficient cause to grant his application. It was therefore now made absolute solely against the latter. The paper purports to be the depsition of Mr. Earnshaw, respecting the wounds ofJolin Lees, and for cause of his death, which be was not psrmitt. d ti state to the Coroner's Jury, when culled upon brfore them, as he refused to take an oath, bring a member of the Soviet) of Friends. SHARP PRACTICE. Mr. COOPS& moved for a rule to shew cause why the Defendants, two in number, should not be dis charged out of custody under au execution, and allowed to *lgo • coprecit for the payment of the tiernand, by instalments of two pounds a month. By the affidavit oa which he moved, it appeared that the Defendants had signed a cognorit for pay eient of about iO/. the amount of debt and costs to the Plaintiff in the case, hut not keeping up their payments, execution had sued out, but clay were not lii custody. In this state of things a friend of the Defendants, named Buck, applied to Cie attornies of the Plaintiff, Messrs. Cross and Lewis, on their behalf. and offered to pay 5/. and to sign a new cognorit fur payment of the remainder, at Q (. a month. This was agreed to by Mr.Crwo, Mr. Lewis being present, and a time was fixed for pay ment of the 5/. at Mr. Cross's office. In the meals time, doubts arose in the minds of the Defendants, that if they went to Messrs. Cross and Lewis's officer or elsewhere, to execute the new cognovit, they would take advantage of the circumstance to arrest them. Mr. Buck called again on Mr. Cross. acid stated what were the fears of the Defendants, a Wing, that lie bad assured the Defendants they hid toi reason to fear any such dishonourable ad. vantage being taken of them. Mr. Cross, Mr. Le wi g being present at the time, said he should scorn to be guilty of any such dishonourable con duct. Under this assurance, the Defendants went at the time apptiiiited to Mr. Cross's office, the W. was paid. and some conversation took place respect. tug who should pay for the stamp for the new cog mud it was agreed it should be added to the amount of the debt. Mr. Lewis went out, under pretence of getting a cognoeit stamp, but presently returned with a bailiff, by whom both the Defeti dant, were taken into custody. The present appli cation was, that Mr. Lewis and Mr. Cross should pay the expenses of this proceeding, and that the Defendants should be allowed to execute a new, cagnovit.—Rule to shew cause granted.

P" LICE. GUILDWALL. Saturday Thomas Fcark:, a middle-aged man, of respect ahle •ppcarauce, was cliaigc.l with a fraud on David Williams, • watchman. The Prosecutor, ■ very simple looking person, hail been taken by the Prisoner into • public-house iu St. Marlin's-le-Grand, where the latter engaged with another person, who happened to be pre sent, in fairing up, first fur silver, and then fur a Bank note, and lining all his money except a SI. note, applied to the Prisoner to change it, which he was unable to do; but advanced first a IL and then a 21. note, the larger wide being placed before him on the table as secnrity,— The Prisone►, however, shortly after snatched up the whole of the money mail made tie with it, but was pursued, and the notes belonging to Williams were found iu his pus- Ws ' . The Prionser's Solicitor contended that nn offince had been committed, inasmuch as the Prosecutor parted with his money willingly; but the Illagistrale's clerk said it had been decided to lw a felony where persons had been enticed to play and been cheated out of their money, mid also in the old trick of ring-dropping. It was replied, in those cases the persons had no intention to part with their money, when Sir Wm. Domville observed, therevould be no doubt that Williams did not intend to part with his money. Ile was decidedly or opinion Ibat a felony had been committed. The Prisoner was committed to take his trial fur stealing the bank notes, value 31. Bows PUBLIC NUISANCES. Saturday an information was heard against Benjamin Hart, of Holywell-rtreet, salesman, under M. A. Taylor's Metropolis Paving Act, for exposing clothes for rale out side his door and window, contrary to the provisions of that statute. Mr. Cadman, the surveyor to the Commissioners under the Paving Act for the parish of St. Clement Danes, proved the case, stating, that on the sth of November the Defendant had, as usual, several garments hanging at his door. The affair wan argued at considerable length, the Defendant hay. ing employed a solicitor to appear fur him. In the course of the proceedings an observation was Thrown out that the complaining party had acted with partiality in selecting this case, when there were many nuisances which called inure loudly for punishment, but Mr. Cadogau warmly resisted this imputation. He had summoned rich and poor indiscri minately, and the rank of su offending party was of no con sequence to him. He once summoned Sir W. Cungreve under this Act, sad he was Aned 51.; and he would 'tree the Prince Regent the same, if it were possible. After some fur ther conversation, Mr. Farrant was about to convict the De readmit, when Mr. Quint's declined pressing the fine, oil a promise being given thst the nuisance should be done away altogether. He assured Ilse Defendant, however, that any breach of promise would be punished. Here the case ended, with the understanding that nu clothes would be exposed iu future. ITRZET.

Yesterday • newtons sad very respectable meeting took place, persitant to the requisition mentioned in our last, at the Court House, Wakefield, for the purpose of passing ap propriate Resolutions, and Address of Thanks to Earl Fit:- without, for his long and eminent vertices as Lord Lieutes tenant of this Hiding. Hugh Porker, Esq. was called to t h e Chair, on the motion of William Shure, Esq. seconded by B. Reality, Esq. Mr. Parker, on taking the Chair, said, Grsinnlita—We are assembled here by no advertise. meat very numerotisly and respectably signed, in order to testify the gratitude of the West Riding of the County of York, to its late Lord Lieutenant, for his valuable services to the Riding; and sheet I see all numerous and respectable an assemblage, I have to lament that your choice has not fallen 03 one more qualified to fill the office of Chairman, and most beg your indulgence for that incompetency to do Milt office justice under which I labour. There is uo in stance at any period in my recollection, when a part of the County has been asseetbl. .1 without the County at large; but in this inatance it is necessary to confine the thanks of the County to that part over which he pre. sided; lint it was not necessary to be so confined with regard to the People. All classes comprised under the denomination of inhabitants, were under his care, and all have a right to come here and express their opin aaaaa • on a business in whit Ii they are so much interested. From this Imainess, I trust, 1 may hope we shall nut digress to any party topic. Whatever may be the different opinions of the removal of Earl Foxwilliam from the situation which he held, they are not withiu the meaning of this meeting; and ore only object is to consider whether his services have any claim to our acknowlidginents, and if we be atten tive to this, it will tend to keep us to the object alone. If I did nut fret restrained by my situation, I might expatiate to the numerous acts of liberality nod patriotism which adorn every portion of his Lordship's life. That which shone so conspicuously in his character, and which his situation denuded of him, namely, to promote the prospe rity of the Riding, and the good of the people was his con. stand endeavour. The trerit of these, proceeding from an inbred principle, cannot be taken away by the depriving him of office, and, by that unanimous vote of Omsk', which I hope this meeting will give rise to, it will be proved that he has the approbation of his countrymen. 1 have to beg your assistance in the office I am sow about to fulfil, and hope atteutiou will be paid to the Gentlemen who intend to ad dress you. J. FULLICILTON, Esq. moved the first Resolution, and said, Mr. Chairman, it is a satisfaction to me to see you in the Chair, for your liberality of sentiment proves to me that un this occasion your usual candour will be exercised, and I hope we shall confine ourselves to the object for which we are called together. Those who sure...mud me are more entitled to your hearing than I am, but it is owing to the pat tiahity of my fi iends that I have introduced myself so early. The period in which Earl FO:william has acted as Lord Lieu tenant has been au eventful period, and his appointmeat proved the high sense which was entertained of his merits by bins front wh he received that appointment. 011 every occasion, as Lord Lieuteuant, be has secured the love, esteem, and vent:ohm, of the- West Riding: be entered upon his office esteemed and independent; be retires more than esteemed; he retires beloved and deeply regretted. I ought to apologize fur speaking on the occasion, I only took the resolution at the request of my friends, and will not fur ther waste your tisue.—(Applause.) Mr. RAMPDEN, in seconding she first Resolution, said, Mr. Chairman—l feel my inability to du justice to this cause, but I feel great pleasure in following a person of the moat independent principles, mid who is bound to no party. I feel equally rejoiced to second such a Resolution. Nothing can he so honourable as to come forward and en deavour in du justice to one who has filled the situation of Lord Lieutenant, with credit to himself, and the most complete saitifaction to the country. Why have we, as York shiremen, beeu deprived of his services! That is rte secret I want to unravel. His Lordship it is known was appointed at a time when the country was in a state of ferment, that was about 21 years ago ; and I leave the Gentlemen I now ap peal to, to say whether he has not discharged his high office in such a manner us to secure the peace of the county, and give universal satisfaction to the country. I should be sorry to cause any dissent' of OrinioU, but I cannot help asking myself why he has been removed. Have the Ministers of the Crown thought be was a man nut to be trusted? Has his life or character afforded any ground for such an imputation? Gentlemen, it appears to me measures are about to be adopt et! which Load Fitswilliam would nut be a party to ? We are now upon the point of having the standing army in creased 11,600 tam and fur what is this—(A erg of Order, order, front J. Scott, Esq. which tear instantly followed by !nail shouts of Rear, hear, go oa.)—lf measures are about to be adopted which the law has no knowledge of, it is as. eeserry that others be chosen to execute them, for the late Lord Lieutenant would acknowledge no power paramonot to that of the law of the land.—(Loud eherrs.)—Nurse of us are prepared to believe that the law is not already strong enough to restrain any who are anxious to in fringe it; end it is our duty to see that no oilier law is resorted to, because Earl Fitzwelliam is removed. Stronger measures are about to be propoied, but it remains to be *hewn whether they are necessary. It is well known, that the proper state of the country would never be reported more truly, than through the Noble Lord. His successor would do it with equal impartiality, if left to himself; but this, I fear, will nut be the case. Another Green Bag is about to be prepared; we kilo* bow such things are usually managed. The contents of the Green Bag are such as the Secretary of State chooses to make them--(Cries of " Braro.'")—sod we know letters have been left out ou the extraordinary plea of their having beeu misplaced. And letters too from the Lord Lieutenant of this Riding. Would an inquiry of this kind satisfy the country ? I think out : the inquiry ought to be as open as ibis Cowl, that the country might hear all, and every one be able to judge for himself tin the evidence produced. I have taken op too much of your time, but I could nut do justice to the feelings of my heart, without thus trespassing neon you. Lord STOURTON.ir prOpUtilig the second Resolution.snid, Gentlemen, I embrace this opportunity, in the face of this meeting and of the whole country, to express my personal regard to the private virtues and public conduct of Lord Filswilliam. In the rebuke we bare received by the dis missal of our Lord Lieutenant, it might seem more proper to some to have received the chastisement of the Ministers with becoming humility; but 1 think in that dismissal they have dooms both on us and Lord Filawilliam, the lustre of their disapprobation. 1 must say, that in the person of their defender they have again trampled upon the liberties tie our country. Ist that House in which honour is the custom. neat part, the most honourable name is that of Lord Fite- Ministers have eud aaaaa red to disgrace him, but though they could not disgrace the man they have dis graced the office; sod whoever bolds it hereafter, forfeits the independence of every freeholder. The Sovereign is the !amulet° of honour, but there is another fountain, para. mount even to that—the consciousness of having dune tines duty; and the man who su acts ought nut to go unnoticed. The King is the fountain of merry too, and here I will say, that they who by their indiscreet and improper, 1 will now say guilty, approval of late transactions, have done more to pollute that fountain, than any thing that has occurred for more than a century past. The Ministers tell us in their vindication, that they can no longer confide in Earl Fitswilliam ; but, until they have found a man more devoted to die welfare of the country and the interests of the crown than hint, as his successor, we may tell them we confide not in them. When they have found this man let then. thin displace Earl Fitzerillians. I trust I have time cow 'deuce of his successor, I may say 1 share his friendship, but 1 differ with him in polities. I hope to we tome sears rewarded in the service of the people, amid not all the wreaths gives fur victories obtained fur the Crown. We have lived is difficult times, we have seen anarchy and atheism sleeping the plaius of Prance with the best of her blood, and these excesses have produced something like re-action is this eimatry: it has made Ministers. too teuaeiuus of the exec rise of power; aud the excesses of liberty stowed, have I made them wish to mullet her is a strait waistcoat at I house. But oar firmest bushiest' is to express oar grati tude fur the conduct of the late Lord Lieutenant—mut to prejudge his successor. Atwitter observed's, sod 1 have think we twee/molding ourselves by 'expressing our gratitude to such a man ; and if we are ambitious of pos. thuanoui reputation, we cannot better secure it than to be emend fighting by his side the battles of the liberties of our country Lord cheers J. H. Smern, Esq. M.P. rove to second the Revolution.. Mr. Chairman aneltientlerseen, this Resolution appears a ne cessary consequence of the first, and expresses the deep and unfeigned regret we feel for the removal of Earl Fitzwilliam. I find some difficulty in rrstralaiag my feelings on this oc cesson. I beard of his dismissal with surprise sod ►egret, and subsequent cowsideration has nut learned that regret and surprise. Whea I look at the indefatigable seal with which he has at times sacrificed his enoweemesits and his leisure, and Aonietinies even his health, to hie duty, I cannot help asking asyse:f why a man of the highest honour should be thus dismissed, nor can I help wondering how any Minister should think it possible to disgrace lons. I cauuot refrain asking what are those measures which are about to be pro posed, soil in which Lord Fitswillism could nut take a part ? The conduct of the Noble Lord is nut a matter of specula. lion, hut we may conclude what it would hereafter be from what It has already been. If there ,was one person more independent than any other, Lord Fitzwilliam was that per son. He formed the link between the people and the Govern ment. He was not to be seduced by the smiles of the Court, nor to he dismayed by popular clamour. He was the minis ter of peace between the Sovereign and the people; for he was of all men best calculated to secure the confidence of the peo ple, and convince them they were safe from any invasion of their rights and liberties. The interests of the Crown and the people are identified, and they are the worst enemies of the Constitution who would attempt to disunite them. Our Constitution is founded on the broad basis of mutual right, and they are enemies to both Crown and people who would seek to promote the interests of the one at the expense of the other—and therefore I think that Earl Fitzwilliam, in forwarding au inquiry, discharged his duty both to his Sove reign and country. I thought it my duty thus to express my motimeuts, before 1 call your attention to the Resolu (sou just read, and hope it will obtain the unanimous sup port you have given to the preceding one." This speech was repeatedly interrupted by the cheers of the audience, and was followed by three distinct peals of applause. . _ Lord ALTIIORP-.." I have to apologise for my intrusion upon this meeting, but my feelings are too strong for me to remain sileut, and I hope they will plead my excuse. I have nu other claim to your malice (as I reside in a remote part of the country.) It is unnecessary for me to dwell upon the public character of the late Lord Lieutenant, fur in that capa city you know him perhaps better than I do. I have the ho nour of a personal acquaintance with his Lordship, and have always room] him a friend to hiscountry. The blessings which Provideuce has heaped upon him, have always been used to promote the welfare and happiness of his fellow•meu ; and although he has not had the approbation of the Ministers of the Crown, never was there a man who discharged the duties of his situation with greaser assiduity, lie is not to be biassed by intimidation on the one hand, or temptation on the other; and I think those Hue' which were written un that great patriot Charles Fox, may with equal justice be applied to Lord " A patriot's even course be 'treed, Midst Faction's wildest storms unmoved, By all who knew his heart beloved?' This is the man of whose services we are now deprived: this is the snail shoot his Majesty's Ministers have thought pro per to dismiss (morn presiding over the Lieutenancy of tine of the most populous counties of the kingdom ; fur though only called a Itidiug , it was in fact • county—and from its population and importance, it was one where the duties were most arduous. Under those circumstances I cannot but re gret his dismissal, because I can confide in hint. We have experienced that he will at all times do his duty, and even if au Oliver come down among us he will detect him.— This is the great fault be has committed, and for this the Ministers have uuw seized the opportunity of gratifying their usean and paltry revenge. I have gone further than the Resolution; yet I hope I shall be excused, and will now read it..-[Here he read the third Resulistion.]—Gentlemen, it is lucre slated, as the reason of our regret, that we are depriv ed of one who had the confidence of the inhabitants of the West Riding, and I certainly have always considered him as the tried guardian and protector of all ranks of the cum inanity, bum the highest to the lowest individual. . . Ah.u. KNIGHT stcomied the Resolution, nod e%pressed bis coincidence in the noble sentiments which Lund Althurp had just delivered. The CHAIRMAN then said, Gentleraen, we hive now ruse through all the Resolutions intended lobe proposed fur your consideration. Is it your pleasure that an Address be pre pared, founded on these Resolutioss, to be presented to Earl Fitzwillison ?—(Cries of " Tar, nu r) Sir Flumela Woon—Gentleniess-11 is my duty to move the Address, and I do it with mingled pleasure stud regret. It is a pleasure to do my duty, hut we are now met upon a must melts:A*oly occasion. Fur when we are taking our leave of a Lord Lieutenant, who has so loug ■nd faith. fully presided over us, it becomes indeed a melancholy duty. My opinion differs un some political questions, with those whu have gone Infuse me, bat it is our duly to speak out, and, thank Cud, our tongues are not yet lettered by the chains of (rower! las the bad times of Queen Eliza bells, fur bad times I must call them, a man was committed to the Tower fur saying, we are not to be frightened by a few hard words. But he hoped we should not be frightened by hard nor even by hold words. Whether we difft r with Lord Filzwilliant's political conduct for any particular year, or month, or day, nothing can or ought to cancel the gra titude which we owe to him. However much we ens, dif fer with him, nothing can erase the " debt of endless grati tude," which we owe to hint for his conduct as Lord Lieu , tenant. I have looked at many !mess which have been re ceived by my friend, the great promoter of the meads`-- (Looking to the Chairmuni—in answer to hisdifferent appli cations.

The extratailtrioy tending various undertskiogs, !•1161 ti, of a new palace for the Lord High Comm./tot% r, the exorbitant salaries granted to the Alentrk- r , „f the Senate and the Legislative Burly, is ge tt,„,„, ii the new appointments crested by Sir T. :thittl.nd,., greatly exceed the regular tevei.urr ur to.ic that it has become necerasry to tirviw ior measures for supplying the detietenty, T ;t constitution having given Sir Thomas lltriti 4 ,,,i a direct influence and control hi th e of the principal fuuctiorraiirt., the proposition§ rip.. noting front his Excellency •-xpe.rietree hot resistance on the part of the Legt.lative Ask-whit. disposed, as the deputies obvirtmly are, to sup ! ,,, :t all projects tending to till the public dint boar whence their salaries are derived. - M " In addition to the orditi.try ,ones of r«renite, the Government daily reso rt to new talrO. ill Sq. tember l a st, a n impost was laid on the (lock, terds, which are very numerous in the moths. tainous parts of Santa 31anra, Ceploslo s i a , sun Zante. The experiment of this finatotial intooree having been made on the first of these islands, 'h e country people remosost mkt! with the Local Awls. rities ; but before redre s s could be obtinowd, io insurrection began in the village of ifachistes, soon spread through the re,t of the Wand; the people opposed the collectors of custom-, slate chief, Sig. Sicilian'', was killed. " Military force having been sent from the poi soil, the insurgents on the 3d. instant, prormt.d towards the city. Major Storni, the tfoitish Ca w . inriodant, with pint of the garrison, took np a pees. tints on the hill that commands the main road, ono a view to protect the town ; and on the applasch of the insurgents, a regular action took place, in which it is sold . that 13 meo• were killed, and serend wounded on both aides. Maine Stot . in hawing re. tired with his detachment ''tie fortress, in order to secure it, the country-people entered the town, scd assailed and burnt the homes of those perr,: u . w h o were known to have supported the new tax. Sir 'Thomas Maitland having been absent (into the islands when the news of the affair readied Corfu. S:r Frederick Adam sent 350 men, with artilftry, to Santa Mauro. This reinforcement not poring sufficient, a second was sent in baste, and lilies are entertained that with its assistance the insurrection will be quelled. 6' There are some apprehensions that the sums spirit may manifest itself to other O,lmouls, particu larly in 'Garde and Cephalonia, the inhabitants of which might make a stand in their a long time. In that case our sit ti.otion would te ctonic very critical, as the British lutcea are at pre. sent hardly adequate to the garrison duly of s hot and the other fortified places in the ',laud ; a,,11 consequence of the existing spiltin aolonii,t-tri tion its this country, the majority of the natteescos no longer be depended on."
