The cast was one of prejudice, and wholly destitute of truth; arid it rested with the Jury to draw that glaring contrast which existed between what had her► iiintedand what was pruhable in order to come at the facts. It was undeniable, that if the Dr. fessdant was guilty, he was gushy in the most heinoui degree but what was there to oppose so such a .appositioir ?

He then pointed out to tio• Jury what he conceived to lie a decided inconsoster,cy between the reidmitv of Mi-s Dalton and the servant, and dwelt upon the propriety of the Delendaist's conduct as a friend to the young lady, with the most brilliant eloquence.

They have been busied for some days at the grand hunting esiabh.ho►ent of the King, in pre pond for a stag-chase, in which his Majesty was to assist This fleas, which had been spread abroad, had attracted t• Ra►ulroaillet a great part of the inhab►tants of the department of the Seine mid Oise, and of the neighbouring departments. Never was there seers such a concourse of people. At two o'clo.•k in the morning the Duke de Berry was on horseback, accompanied by the Offi cers of the great hunting establishment, to go to recessooitre the part of the Forest called Le Fond du Bullion, where the stag was to be let loo►e. His Royal Highness, in riding through the wood, discovered two deserters, whom he himself stopped and interrogated. They were two soldiers of the legion of the coasts of the north. and who had escaped from Caen, where they had been in garri son. They threw themselves at the feet of the Prince, and invoked his special protection with his Majesty to obtain their pardon. His Royal High ness, without giving them arty ground fur hope, ordered them to attend at three o'clock at the fen demos for the chase. The Prince then returned to the Chateau. The ram, which fell in sufficient abundance from seven o'clock, made it be apprehended that the hunting party would be countermanded. But happily at twelve the clouds disappeared. the sky became clear, and every body prepared themselves for the pleasure of the fete. The rendezvous, where the King, the Princes, and Madame were to assemble, is its a situation the most picturesque. It is adorned with two peel. - . lions of an elegant form, destined to receive the persons of the Court invited to the chase. At three o'clock the King, accompanied by the Duke de Gramninnt, the Captain of his Guard, the Duke de Ch.itre, the first Gentleman of his Suite. and the Duke d'Avisray, set nut for the ren dezvous. Hs Majesty crossed the great court of the chateau amid the royal street amidst an immense crowd of inhabitant., who pressed against his car. riage, and made the air resound with cries of joy. . . _ Dis Majesty arrived at half-past three o'clock at the rendevous, where lie found assembled their Royal Highiorsors Nlousieur, the Duke d'Angou• leaw, the Duke ole Berry, and Madame. The arrival of his Majesty WV* a signal for the most lively acelaihations, which were renewed when his Majesty descended fawn his carriage to mount his chaise. A considerable snubber of spettaitora lined the circular part of the rendetrous. his Majesty wore a magnificent hunting-dress—he ausweredl the de inoisairaiimis of public joy, by the most affection ate iniluiations. The Duke de Perry presented to his Majesty the two deserters that his Royal Highness had found in the forest is. the mottling. His Majesty, who wished that this day of fete should be one for all his subjects, granted theta his pardon, on the prayer of his august irephew—" Rise," said the king, " and serve henceforth with fidelity." The setting out for the chore had a fine effect. Tile three Princes were on horseback„sccousipanied by their Aides-de-Camp, mud the Officers of their Household, iu hunting dresses, and preceded by the lichitsmen. The King mud Mad one followed the chase separately, and in art open chaise ; the chase lasted mar four hqurs, three stags were attacked, and pursued in torn. His Majesty appeared to take much plea►ure in this exercise. The King set out . testerday fur At.

IS was reported at the close of. last week that her MAJESTY'S life was in immediate danger. It was also reported that her MAJESTY had suffered paralytic affection. We are happy to find these rumours contradicted by the Couit circular of yesterday. We find also that to the number of the branches of the Royal Family • proposing to pass some time 011 the Continent is to be added their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of itieNcs:. We do not, therefore, conceive that in the bosom of her own family her MAJESTY'S life is considered tube iu immediate danger. We have received Paris Papers to the 31st last, from which we have made extracts. They contain nothing of import:nice. The Duke of WEt.r.iscrulti, accompanied by his Aide.de-Canip, Colonel HARVEY, arrived yes terday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, at Ansley House, from France. The great curiosity excited in this Country to learn the grounds upon which the American Go vernment meant to justify the capture of Pensacola, will be gratified by the arrival of New York Pa pers to the gib ult. We hare copied from them General JACKSON'S reasons for having recourse to this aggression against Spain, in a moment of pro found peace, friendship, and amity between her and the United States of America. They are the moot barefaced, impudent, and unqualified pre tences to cover lawless violence and cupidity, in the history of modern nations. General Jack- SON complains that Pensacola, in the hands of the King of SPAIN, its rightful owner, affinded facilities to the Indians in hostility with the United States—that the friendship of the King of SPAIN was not as beneficial as it might be to these States—and that their Government is therefore justified in taking possession of it as a measure of self-defence. In this we recognise the common-place plea of every tyraut and violator of the rights of natiour. The strongest nation is, in every respect, tllls strongest protector; and if thii plea of Gen. JACKSON he admissible, all the nations of the world would be under the rule of one great head. Whets the ore and same plank was not sufficient to sustain two drowning persons, there it hied been held one was justified in pushing his coMpanion off, and taking possession of the whole piece of timber to save his own life. It is only in an extreme case of this kind we would allow one nation to dispose*, another, on the plea of this act of crifpossersion being absolutely and immediately necesiory to its own existeuce; but there is no plea of this description attempted to be made out in the present case. The evil complained of amounts oliq to a disadvantage, an incontenieuce. Ge neral JACKSON sit”, It is trite that Pensa cola, from acknowledged weakness, dare riot refuse to VI pp Iy the Indian eileurieo of the . - . \ .. (. - \ \ s'4 7 1 .1 ) ..P . • • . .

The tatuture of Pri•.scitlit it not, as some have presumed, thy act of Ge neral JACKSON, done at his ecru discretion, and for whii h he stands to No Govern. mesa. It is an act done is concurience iiittt the American Government, in perfect unison with their sentiments and pnbey, and, tin doubt, in pur suance of their secret instructions. The viola tion is the more palpable and ro prehensible, as the possession of the Floridas has been long a favourite abject of the Government of the United States—a question of Laigaiii and sale, of anxious and unremitting negninition. The ca.e, tlierefine, is perfectly clear. The Government of the United States having long turd in vain to ob tain possession of West Flutidii ft ) fair 111t1111 , , iu its despair and impatience hiss had recourse to foul. and thinks the present tniauent u fiviiiirable one to take advantage of the embarrassment and weak ness of the Court ol Spam to COMMA the lawless aggression.

HEADQUARTERS.-UIVISION OF TIIE SOUTH. " PENSACOLA, MAY 29, 11318! e , Major-General Andrew Jackson has found it necessary to take possession of Pensacola. He has not been promptest to this measure from a wish to extend the territorial limits of the United States, or from any uufrirodly feeling on the part of the American Republic to the Spanish Government. The Seminole Ind►ans inhabiting the territories of Spain have for more than two years past visited our frontier settlers with all the horrors of savage massacre, helpless women have been butchered mud the cradles stained with the blood of innocence ; these atrocities, it was expected, would have early attracted the attention of the 51 pionioh Government, and, faithful to existing treaties, speedy measures adopted fur their supine' .
