Question by Mr. Cobbett.—So Riot as I had armed at that stage in which you could no longer tolerate my public writing., you took to reading toy pri t .do letters ?—A. 1 'regarded it as a letter for the use of the Couturiere, and thought they were not restrained front making any use of it they thought proper. Mr. Cobbett proceeded to cross-examine the wit ow.a from the contents of the letter of April I, 1808. Mr. BIOUGB4II submitted that the letter should he put in and read, which was done accordingly. The cidsmexaminstiou of the wittiest was then it-rousted, and cret.;:ttied for some time, but nothing (Luther was thcititl.

The Yrimesiethen proved the publication of the various number of the Register iu which the libel was. repeated. Crots-crodaiisCd by Mr. Cobbett.—lt was in the Kifig's Breech pinion I first saw you. Lord Cock. rant was with me. While Lord Cochrane was iii the liisio's RenCh prison I came down on a manage to you from his Lordship. I think I received the letter read just nodyfrons Ina Lorchthip; he said you were ohont to.go to America, and wanted some our who haecthe courage to publish your Register in venue absence. Lord Cuchratst did not say any thing about fidelity ; ate had no doubt I should be faith ful.

I received a letter from you sysessive of such powers, and atatiag. that the whole responsibility was to rest on me. The mann. scripts were under my sole control, and I had ab solute power to expunge, but I did not think my. srlf warranted to put in any thing of my own. The crow-examination of the witness continued :it great length, and went to ,hew that lie had pub lished something tint transmitted by Defendant, sari that he had altered passages, by expunging stiong worth.. and at the time be was intimate with the Plaintiff. The wittiest§ refused toauswer to the queatiou, if he had not assisted Cleary in the writs tog of the pamphlet which be had published against the Defendant, entitled " it Letter to Major Cart wright." Ho did publish a letter from Cleary in the Register, thinking he was entitled to it as an act of justice s after being an attacked. He accom panied the Plaintiff when he went to mike an affi stairii. the ob j ect of which was, he understood, to keep the Defendant in this country till the present section could be brought. The whole of the Sc. 4 ren t s of printing and publishing were kept in :lie witnesit's name. Re-examined by Mr. BitouGnam.—The original manuscripts were left with the priuter. The De fendant never objected to my insertiou of the ar ticles. By Me Jusait.—lie never made any complaint rs.a,tectiug any thing. -- Mobsters: ezonsistevl.—l primed the Re gisters; I received the copy from Mr. Jackson.— nistiuscript was Oren up to W. Cobbeti, jun. Cross-examined by Mr. Cabbett-1 think I could distinguish between the hand-writing of you and your son. I saw you once Wilte a note :o Tipper rod Fry, the otationers, for paper. about there years ago. The witness afterwards added, " be lieve I then saw you write." The Plaintiff's ease being closed. Mr. Cobbett rese and addressed the Court. He said lie had hot tree malty to suppose that lie could defend himself with the ability of the Geotleman who sat near him, but as befoul to deal with a particular descrip lion of men, Ite.was doubtful if he could have pre. seded on any of those Gentleman to deal with them as he had thought it iieceosary. Mr. Ca b heti observed, in very animated terms, on Mr. Browghsta's opening, and said, so for was hr most being of the character he had described, south to be dreaded, mid of so much seal sad with no few scruples, that lie had been a writer opwarda of 28 yeses, and yet this was the first ac. Ulm for damages in which he had tear been the defendaut--which he believed was more than any vt the Paper. Reviews, or Magazines could sac, but even excepting the Evangelical. In the first criminal prosecution he had sustained, he received the copy from a Judge ; it was hooded to him by a Member of Parliament, tad verified by a harquis. The writer. was ~scled,bur bur he suffered no impriouunient ; on the coil. Val. • petioion of 1.4004. •-year was fixed on him far life: io that could not have Leen a tery daogerous libel. As fur the thing for which he was linprieonett by the Attorney General. it did him 16a horn:, it gave him a great deal of leisure, which lie profited by • he pent iu «mud sod came out sound. He h ad mentioned all the eases in which ne had ever been concerned, because be hail been held up as so pre-eminent iii hi. mil; but let them look it any other publication. Even the C lish mu easer llebierr had been elturged. but they had crept out by humili4lloll6, which the gentlemen in the ionviliern part of the kiugdom knew how to make, the stupid southern rail their heads into • gaol. IVlr. Cobbett next ridiculed Om idea of the Plaintiff being coentectztl with Major Cartwiiglit, and asked that gen tl e r /1 .,. who had been sublicenard to give lain a I.ltaracter. had not been put in th e though Ise hod beru sitting in Court all day. The Plaintiff might be as intimate as the Learned Conn. sel had represented with the treueesble Major, even sia" Bog is our bed-fellow." fie would give the Jory the true history of the Plaintiff. He came to tins country in 181 e, and was then Sons Secrettiire, as the French would call it, to the Hampden Club—(in Ireland he had been writer to a active. ner.)—He was the last man to reflect on any one for the lowness of their origin. hut such wie the fact. When liege, he became instead of a servant, Ames Seesetaire to that Club he had mentioned be. fore, of which our Davis was the Secretary, and he remembered seeing hint at Bury-street, perched behind his desk, like :Matthew at the receipt of custom. The Sons Secretaire had told him that he travetied as a sort of apostle of liberty, kith his packet of instructions for the formsbon of Ileum. den . Cliths. Ile mentioned Ibis to spew what da mages he was entitled to. _ . Mr. Cobbett then reviewed the conduct of the Plaintiff at the IVeetminster election, and contended that he had given the first provocation, in publish ing his private letter, ten years after it was written, and not then giving the whole of it, hut omitting the date, the name of the prison to when it was ait dressed, and other nuptirtent particular+, which fully justified him in calling it a forgery; for as he lied seen it in that girb:ed shape it was a forgery ; since they called it ■ forgery if a figure wait added • to a bank-ante or she name altered or added. The forgery had been dwelt ou by the Learned Conerel, and the breech of trust and confidence slipped over; but he . wee CUllfildelli that no man who beard him, not eves excepting the Plaintiffs Advocate himself, hut would say that the act of publishing • letter after a lapse of ten years, was a most atrocious one. Yet though the Iwgisistiorg and end of the letter were left out, be was only sorry for one expression in that letter—he meant that in which he alluded to the lady with whom Mr. Hunt hid been living for twenty years. Mr. Cobbett then animadverted with great severity on the evidence of the witnesses, which he compared to that of Majocchi and Deflated, and conteud ed that Mr. Brougham would find it a difficult mat ter to draw any tangible distil c ion between them and the Plaintiff and his witnesses. Mr. Brougham bad said, that thawed. attempted to pick locks; but for what purpose did he do that? Did he expect to And the Queen and Bergemi in one of the drawers ? No, certainly, but he expected to find letters and other docuineuts. Now. though °mote& had died with the blessings of a Cardinal on his head, vet he, Mr. Cobbett, believed him to be a great villain, though he hail not been guilty of a greater villainy than the publication of a private letter. The Leonard Gentleman had told them that the White Horse champion was now a student at law, sod haimided to be called to the bar. " I was," continued Mr. Cobbett„ " alarmed at that ; and knowing how scarce Gentlemen of that pro fession are, and how difficult it is to get law for love or money ; so to have subtracted one member from that profession would be a very great offence, and it has lain heavy on my conscience ever since I heard it." Mr. Cobbett went on to state hypothetically (being prevented by his Lordship from stating it di rect 4), that Kite had on his lending in England re ceived a challenge from the Plaintiff which he took no notice ot; and if that challenge was afterwards published in all the Papers, in addition to two pam phlets before published, in short if the Plaintiff had taken every means to revenge himself, for what he had himself said was no injury to him, what damages could they think small enough to award him ? Mr. Cobbett again reverted to the conduct of the wit nesses, and charged two of them with the grossest ingratitude towards him, and begged the Jury to look at the state of insecurity every mail, and every woinsu too, would be placed in if breaches of trust and confidence were to be reckoned justifiable. He justified his changes of opii.ion as being opi -11101/16 of men, not measures, and were changes from had to better, whilst some near IRS) had changed from bad to worse. He concluded a very long and forcible address by an exposure of the wardship of being held to bail for such a ni atter as he was charged with, because a man could be found to swear lie believed he was shoot to leave the kingdom, though, -ut the same time, it was notorious h e was just at. rived in England, and was going down to Bosley to reside. He besought the Jury not to sanction by their verdict a system of espionage and treachery.— He did not ask them to consider him or has family, but to convince the world that there still existed in the breasts of Enelialittieti an irrecoucilesible anti pathy to every thiug base awl trlicherous. Mr. Cobbett concluded his address after being several times interrupted by the Defendatit's Coun sel, mid admonished by the Court, for opening matters which he did not intend to prove by evi dence. Mr. BROUGHAM submitted that be was entitled to a reply under the circumstances, as Mr. Cob bett had gone so largely into matters, of which he had offered no proof ; but as Ibe Defendant's speech was only in aggravation of the libel, be was con tented to waive his right. His Lordship then summed up the evidence to the Jury with his nceu,tumed discriminution, and told diem, if they were -ati-feed of the proof of publication, they would find the Defendant guilty, as no ins., could doubt the matter published was hibellous; and then the nest question was, as to the amount of damages. on which he thought one observation of the Defendant very material—he meant the fact of the publication ten years after the letter was first written. and for a purpose which the parties must have kinotii the Defendant would not have sanctioned had he been present. The Jury retired for an hour and .6 quarter, and at tight o'clock inturneil a verdict for Plaintiff, damages 405. costs 40a. ; and a verdict fur the j Defendant un the last coma of the declaratiou. • The iris) occupied the whole of the day. The Court was crowded to excess durnig the whole period. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, TUFSDAT, DICEMBIR S. THE KING V. SIR JOHN HILT, BART. 41110 SIR JOHN KTNASTON POWELL, LINT. The. ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated the case for the Crown. lie Paid this was an ioforitiation brought to rer•oser the penalty of th,ee bonds, amounting to 100,000 /. each. entered into by the Defendants, conditioned fur the faithful prrfirm mice of duties by -- Eros,. a Receiver-Getie 'al of 'rases for Shropshire. 'luting the years 1813, 1814. and 1815. lie stated that Mr. Eyton died iu the )ear 1816, at which time he was in debt to the Crown in s sum of about 100,0001. on account of the tree years for which the Defendants had given the bonds in question as his sureties. The defence which would be offered, the Attorney 'General said he understood II" that Mr. Evtini, who had been Receiver-General foe many - yews before 1813, was in arrest . to the Crown in ti large sum. at the time the present Defendants gave the bonds no which they are now sued, and that during the years 1813, 14, and /5, he ppid into the Ex chequer the amount of tex.s lie received. But, paid the Attorory-General, n gent thin of his payments during those years v ere InAcie to s•►th.faction of former balances, which I'w proper officers will prove, sod then the only question for the Jury will be, whether Mr. Eyton had fulfilled the conditions of the bond. Si•rjenits PEEL awl TADDY, for the I)efendants, submitted to the Court that the question *re not whether any of lie conditions of the bond him! been at till infringed, tar ►urrly the Court would not say that if there had been a fa lure to the ■mount of a farthing, that therefote the penalties of the bond were forfeited. _ _ _ Wm.

The ATTORNEY-GEN CIL/ 1, said, the fact of put of the money received for those years having been levied by extent, proved that the bonds were fen felted ; besides, Mr. Eytou might have had the money that he was in atrear iu his hoods at the time these bonds were entered into, and might have misapplied die niatiey he received duriug those years., Serjeant PELL said, he would be able to slew that the money paid during the three years for which the bonds were given, had been received during the same years—ott which .vidrhee the Jury, he trusted, would find fur the Delend.nits.— To prove that the money paid into the Exchequer on Mr. Eytou's account, in the pars 1813, 1814, and 1815, was the same he had received in those years, Serjeant Pell called Henry Morris, clerk in the bank of Messrs. Rock and E) ton. in Shrews bury ; and -- Hamilton, clerk to Messrs. Gos ling and Co., London ; the former of whom proved the sums lodged in the Shrewsbury Bank by Mr. Eyton's deputy, and the remittances mule au his account to Messrs. Gosling owl Co. by whom the payments were made to the ExchNorr. The ATTORNEY-G E 9 ERA 1. COlitt'udrd this evi dence made no change in the ca-e. Serjeant PELL etth:ortted, that it ,Imulil 1). left to the Jury to find whether the iriniiry thatitad been paid by Mr. Lyton kw the yesr• 1813, 14, and 15, was the same he 1.e.1 leceiv. *luring those years. . . . • f he k.lllltlt BARON rigid, it WIC II) evidence, that part of the money icceived fur those year. had been levied by extent. which was lona that lie bad not paid. and in his opinion the Defendants were liable for the penalties of the bond; but their Counsel would have au opportunity of arguing the law of the question on a motion lot a new toinl. and Le most sincerely wished them success ; us he had the pleasure of being acquainted with the Dereadout,. and knew they were vs honourable men as any in Eugland. but at present his Lordship said he could not see any occasion to trouble the Jury.

I should be a most degesserate desereadant of the Haase of Brunswick, if I did out feel the mast lively satisfaction in therm improved prospects of freedom and of happiness which the present calightened state of public opinion auouumees to use generous people of these realms. THE POI ACRE.—There is an individual whose name is Jackson, at present on board the Jusech. Christopherson, now Ijing in the West India Docks. who had the command of the polacre in which h-r Majesty sailed from Sicily, during a voyage from Gibraltar to London. Both Paturzo, the mate. and Gargiulo, the captain, were on board; hot the vessel was given io charge to Jackson on account o' the great value of the cargo, and because the capiaili was not sufficiently acquainted with the voyage. Jackson had heard, in the vague manner in which those reports were circulated at the tiro', of the initaitations cast on the character of the Princess of Wales for her conduct on board the pulacre. and WJS therefore induced, in the course of the voyage, to question Paturzo and Gargiulo on that subject, which gove rise to frequent conversations between them. So far from 'Binding any confir mation to those reports, they both declared that the Priuscess conducted herself with the greatest pro priety, and that they never observed the slightest improjer familiarity to exist between her Royal Highness and any other parson. Her manner and habit,' were retired, and ratty body treated her wit& the greatest respect and attention, as her rank mandril. The mate, indeed, stated that she was i•a the custom of passi n g several hours every day in soh tude, and to use los own expression, was so tem. perate, and even abstemious i■ her diet; as to be " more fit to be a Catholic than a Heretic."— It is not the least striking circumstance in Jackson's relation, that even the name of Bergaini was never mentioned to him. He had supposed. having heard that there were English officers on board. that one of them had been the object of her Ma jesty's attachment, and therefore confined his inqui. ries solely to them, which were answered by the Captain and Mate by assurances of the utmost pro. priety in her conduct. This affords a strong pre. suesption of the falsehood of the charge, which we have always maintained. since it is nest to impos sible, if it had been whispered among the crew, or the slightest impression existed that Bergami was the favoured individual, but that the captain cot the mate, iu the many conferences they had on the subject, must have mentioned it to Jackson. The mate, as deacribed by Jackson, is a MOW whom y would tempt to any action. huwev.r in famous. and not worthy to be received as rsi le iu any court of justice. —/ Times.) PRICE OF STOCKS YESTERDAY.
