YORKSHIRE ASSIZES. lOU CASTLE, MONDAY, DULY 26. 1 CROWN SWF.. The Cost was opened at twelve o'clock, when the Grand Jury were sworn. After the customary formality of reading the proclama- t time for the suppreseion of vice had been complied with, Mr. Justice IIAYLCY delivered hie charge to the Grand Jury. His Lordship first proceeded to make a number of remarks uu several a the cases cunt/tilted is the calendar, and then addressed the Jury on the present state of the eanntry. We shall pin over the former part of the charge s cod give only that which relates to a subject of more gene ral iiitervat. Having gone through the different ear" his Lordship proceeded in the foilowiug terms:— " Having now gone through all the cases in the calendar which seemed to require any observations, I should, is itr• denary eacrenstancee, have forborne to have made soy ob servations of a core general nature ; hut seine events which have recently occurred in this cooniy, have imposed upon me the duty of occupying a small (and I trust it will be hut a small) portion of your time, by some remarks un the pre sent situatioa of the country. Gentlemen, it is the duty of us all, in our respective spheres, to eittleavone, if possible. to reveal crime; and where a course of conduct has been adopted by any individuals, which appears likely to produce mischief, it is our ditty, by every thing we can say, and by every thing which we can do, to cumiteract this tendency, as the prevenliun of crime is always better than its punish. mod. In the view which I take of these acts, lbouall I see RI, satiated fur alarm, I feel that there is much orcseiou for the exercise of atteutiou and vigilance, and that vigilance should be two-fold—vigilance in preventing the rise of ilia. affection, and vigilance its using every means to relieve the desiress which is stated to exist in different parts of the eessintry Of the reissence and extent of this distress, you, Gentlemen, have abundantly better means of judging than I east have; and, from your local residence and superior means of information, you are much better jokes than I can be, bodies to the causes of the evil and the brat mode of afford ing relief. But in whatever degree, mid to whatever extent, distress may exist, it will be, I trust, but temporary; it arises, I um convinced, from causes which will not affect the permanent prosperity of the country. It will be one part of your ditty to guard the lower el of society against the machinations of those (who, indeed, are their greatest enemies) who would eadeavuur to make them discontented with their situation, whach can only tend to increase their sufferings. It should he your endeavour, by calm and tem perate reasoning, to satisfy their minds, and by calling forth their philosophy, to induce them to support their pri vations with fortitude and reptaniiiity. I am alluding to the distress which has receatlyvaisted in the manufacturing districts. We have had some parts of the country in which considerable distress existed in the agricultural interest, but that appears to he iu a great degree removed; and, 1 think, there appears, Oa the part of the manufacturing pour, a die position to bear Ilse pressure of the times with great patience and firmness. It is a pressure which, I hope, will be only temporary ; and the causes of it admit, as I think, of an easy explanation. The wages of the woe kman must depend spun the profits of the manufacturer, and the profits of the manufacturer must depend upon the cousutnption, which will be either a demand by Government, or by individuals, or by foreign States. In time of war, the former is high; in time of peace it is low; and in time of peace, the large portion of the population, which was employed by the de mand occasioned by the war, and in military and naval ser vices, will, in a great measure, be thrown upon the country, and create a surplies quantity of labour. With respect to foreign trade, it may be ohservefi, that a foreign country will never buy our manufactures if it can manufacture for itself; because, by manufacturing for itself, it will be sup poi 'log its own manufacturts and maintaining its teem poor, whereas, if that country purchased them of us, it would he supporting our manufactures sod maintaining our poor; which we cannot expect any foreign Slate to do. Gen tlemen, if I should wish to compare the state of the country to what it was, say, thirty years ago, 1 should first look at its population, and ifl should find that it had in d, I should then inquire whether the increased population was as well fed sad clothed as before. If the couutry, instead of containkg six minim's, should contain ten, and these ten millions should be as well fed and clothed as the six mi diem& were, I should certainly conclude that the country was,upon the whole, in a flourishing state; and as the demand fur clothing most proportionally have increased, the ma nnfacturer will have no reason to complain. To this con sumption all classes of society contribute, the great the middle class, and the pour. The great provide suitable cloth jog and accommodations for themselves, their is, and their families, and the middle clam and the poor procure clothing according to their respective situations in life; and when this is the case, each class in society is contributiog its share towards realising the expectations of the rnanufac• tuner, whether he has or has nut the demand which he thinks he has • right to expect. On this subject we may in some measure form a jiidgment by the use of our owu eyes. when I pass through a place, I find the people are dressed l its a way suitable to their I situations to life, I may reasonably conclude that there is that consumption which the manufacturer has a right to expect. If I find that the people are generally *ell fed and well clothed, I may also fairly infer that the country is generally in a flourishing slate, whatever distress may exist PI particular districts, and that even this partial distress will be but temporary. If we would wish further to inquire into the extent of this distress, we may observe whether in the towns through which we pass there ate new buildings ruing on, and whether the old ones me in a state of gaud repair; sod if, in addition to this, we also Rad that the population leasencreased fuem six to ten millions, and that these ten millions are as well fed and clothed as the six millions were, we shall have sufficient to satisfy us, that notwithstanding the existence of partial distress, the country is, upon the whole, in an improving and flourishing cunditi eeee . It is also evident that cloth and other ailieles of manufacture w ill be wanting for ten instead of six millions, which of course must increase the demand fur our manufactures. " There is another idea which I would suggest to you, I have often heard it asserted that we were rooted by taxatiott, and that one great cause of the presesd distress was occa mooed by live taxation. This scents to me (though I may possibly be iniatitken in this opinion) an erroneous con clusion. Let us consider to what use Ilse taxes a►e applied, and we shall, if I mistake nut, find that the poor are mute benefited by their capemditure, than dial •el by the quoin which they have to pAy, as the greater part of the taxes are paid by the rich. If we inquire bow Ilse money raised by these 'Axes is employed, we shall find that by far the greater part of the produce of the taxes is applied to the payment of dividends due to the national creditors, by whom it is expended in their subsistence, and by whom it circulates through. all classes of society, and no inconsiderable por tiots of it is expended in the articles furnished by the menu factor. r, a n d of course finds employment fur the workmen employed in the difiereitt manufactories. These •re nut notions of my own, l received them in early lift, by read ing • wotk written by bonnie Jeuyits, and one written by Mr. Pr. I; the termer treats the sulky! theoretically, Mid by argument sheers what must he the consequence of • na tional el, bt, and the latter by an historical induction of facts, sheers that these effects have been actually produced. If a man has saved money, he naturally *Woes to find some secure and resshy mode of investing bin savings, and if he calmed do this in Ins own country, be will transfer it to a foreign one; now the national debt presents a ready and secure mode of investing surplus capital, and by this means has a tentlestry to keep property in the country, fur alien a prison invests his property in a foreign country, he is ge neralty Unloved to Whew it, and attend to its management, sod if is had lint ht , l) for liar 1111iioual debt, it Is mobablo that 20 millions of the m •y a hitch is now annually ex pended here its dividends, Intuit, have been invested and ►prat in foreign countries. Gettilemen, its making these observations, I trust that I have nut Meta deviating from the line of my duty; I have horn dextrous of throwing out this idea to you, Gentlemen of the lib 41111 Jury, and through you to the public at lenge. 1 I will eueclode with repeating my conviction, that the coun try is, still sit a flourishing state, that there is uo fousulattuu fur alarm, and au aura pound fur complalut.

EXECUTION AT BERLIN. BEIRLIIII, JULY 23. With feelings of heartfelt disgust and loathing we are just returned from a public executime in the vicinity of this town, which would have done hotrosir to those ages, when the blazing faggot and wrenching rack spread dii.may and ferocity muting the manners of the then ignorant 114111/441 of the North of Europe. A murder, committed five months ago, under circumstances certainly of rather au aggravated nature. was doomed his day to he expiated by the death of the offender: but what a death! The eared tioas of the Prussian capital take place about an &w -hat quarter of a mile from the gate of Or■uieoburg. A triangular gibbet is raised in the centre of an extensive plain cummanding a view of the city ; attached to this gib bet is a stone platform lightly railed in with iron, so as to admit of all t h at takes place being distinctly vi►wed by the surrounding spectators. This platform is, alas! preferred to the gibbet. A large grave was dug in the (runt of it. We rowed the ground kept by a detachment of Prussian lan cers formed in hollow square, and enfiladed round the . tion place by an inner squire of the Russian infantry guard. About half au hour before the ■pliarance of the criminal, twelve persons, executioners and police officers, and above all two little boys as suistants, mounted the scaffold, snit fixed down the strangling curds. At length the buz of the surrounding multitude, and the flourishing of reeked sahrca, announced the slow approach of the criminal upon an hurdle drawn by six horses. On his approach the word of com mand flew through the rank., the arms presented, the drums beat, and colours raised, until he had muusited the scaffold. No ecclesiastic appeared then to gild the hoirurs of ete►. nity—at those awful moments, when religion arrays herself in her brightest robes, ■nd bids the expiring criminal sink into her everlasting arms, with loupe, if nut wills security, no dying and repentant prayer closed the quivering lips of the blond stained murderer. Immediately un stepping on the scaffold his coat wee rudely torn (tom his shoulders, and she cap pulled over his face. He wan then thrown down, the cords placed round his neck, which were drawn by the executiuners until strangulation almost commenced, or at lens; until the luxation of the neck was elf*. cod ; aneither executioner then approached, bearing in his hands a heavy wheel, rimmed with iron, with which he first ►washed his lei .hones, then his stomach, then his arms and chest, and lastly hi■ head. His 111111111g1r11 bleeding body still convulsed, was carried down fur interment, mid in much laws than twenty minutes, from the first beginming of his torture, the corpse was completely covered with earth; several large stones which were first 'brown upon him haatened his last gasp, but be was at least a quarter of au hour iu being mangled into eternity.
