The affidavits having been ead Mr. SctatErr was heard ant behalf of Woolf— Mr. Comment StaJBART, for Levy—and Mr. Da MAY. for Kinnier. Mr. Guems:v then addressed the Court, aggra • mitten. lie dwelt with great severity o n the con duct of the * Defendants, in endeavouring to mix. lead the Court by the production of affidavits that were manifestly false. Their Lordships having consulted for a short time— Mr. Justice Bairtu proceeded to address the Defendants. He observed that tory bad, after a a most minute investigation of their case, been convicted of a most atrocious conspiracy, by which they had frindulently got into their hands property to a large amount. They had afterwards applied for a new vial.—bat the Court were of opinion, • that the gronsids which they stated were not of a ustitre sufficiently strong to warrant their interposi tion. This betels, however, had been derived from the application—it had caused the Court to look with scrupulous attention to the evidence that had been offered at the trial, and on which the Jut y returned a verdict of guilty. Having thoroughly weighed that evidence, their Lordships were unam- Otously of opinion, that the verdict was a most just and proper one. Whet the full extent of the fraud sm., the Court hail can means of knowing— lint distinct evidence was given at the mu, that frauds hail brim committed to the amount at 34,0001. The Defendants had stated in their affi davits that they were married men, and had large famtlie.; but this only aggravated their guilt, snice the ties of husband and of father ought to have made them doubly careful trot to commit any act that could reflect tliogroxe on those wino were so nearly connected with them. Levy in his affilLiva had pleaded poverty, and stated that he had been a • bankrupt. But in • letter to one of his corm sposidetits, which had beets given in evideuce, he adverted to cowsiguments which he had shipped for India, and spoke confidently of an expected profit. It Wit clear, therefore, that funds existed tome• where, on which In could lay his hands. Taking all the cite tarices of Ow case into consideration, Ilse Court adjudged and awarded, that Kiernier should he imprisoned in the gaol of Ilcheoter, for twe Yen"--that Levy should he imprisoned its the gaol of Gloucester for two years, and pay a tine of 5.000/.—and that Woolf should be imprisoned for two pans in the House of Correction. Coldbath• held., mid to psy a Ism of 10,000/...—and that the two hitter be imprisoned until their lots be paid. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, PIUDAY. NAT 14.

Does not libiattior contribute materially to the revenue of the country, by the duty tau paper and advertiserntnis ? Very largely. Do you think that the advantage of extending the copy. right of English hooks over Scotland and Ireland more than rompensatra the loss oreasioned by the delivery of Ave risme , to the former, and Iwo to the littler part of the Visited think, that whese copyright requires to be pro tected, the penalty is very small ; but there are not many eases where 11w copyright requires to be protected; • great many protect themselves, by their very nature, un accuout attic expense of publication. I think Scotland has acquired a very great advantage, notch mute than Euglatid, from the retest mun of for copy' ight over the two countries mutually, and I expect that hereafter ['eland a ill derive the greatest advan tage; if the Copyright 14w stood now as before the Art of Anne, the popular works that are now printed in Scotland would necessarily be sold to English publishers, and first published in England, because the greater sale being in England, it would be more essential to them to protect the eopyriqht here than there. 1 coneetvia the Scotch book pellets must acquire a very great advantage by the law, and I hope hereafter that Ireland will gain as much. In what mealier has the obligation to deliver the eleven copies to the politic libraries operated ispou the republieri. tow of aratre and valuable hooks?-1 ant not much w the habit of reprinting scarce and valuable books ; but I slmuld suppose, that where the calculated number is small, it would frequently operate as a prevention to the reprinting. Do you think that many valuable works, of which a limit ed nimbs sisily would be printed, ate abanduued on Ibis accisiost7-1 believe they are: Do you think that tlw tecent edition of the English Chro nicles its quarto, would have been produced, if the book sellers bad been liable at the time to the gratuitous delivery of elven copies ?—I rather think 11w delivery sould have operated very strongly against the speculation, and probably they would nut hart been printed. What is the valise of books delivered by your boner, since the paging of the Act?—The amount of the books delivered by us to Ilse, public libraries exceed 1,0001. at the lowest trade prier. la the demand made by the public libearirs to the book. seller, has any regard been paid either to the utility of the tespeet lye bunks demanded, or to the books previously deli vered by the publisher?—None at all; they have been taken indiscriminately. I should suppose, that if ■ porn of mo ney was allotted to the universities to purchase hooks, they would out purchase one in ten of what are published, per haps not one in twenty. Have the public libraries demanded a reprinted edition of books where there have been only some trifkog alteiations, anal of which the first impress 1111 l s hail been delivered knee the Passing of the Act ?-IVe ourselves have delivered copir s albs serum' edition of a wos k, which sold for thirty shil lings, alibi', four mouth* after the delivery of the first, though the additions were very trellieg.

Wished law, and nsight iutroduce great inconvenience. A hook might fail of being entered by mistake, and the copy right might become rely valuable, and he lost merely hum the mistake, and that would be a grievance of which one could hardly foresee the amount. Do pro think that the depositing of the eleven copies in these public libraries has any teuileney to take away private purchasers ?—Certaiiily, I think it must. Data it slut, in your opinion, supply gratnitously many people who would otherwise be purchaser ?—I should think it would. Do yon coureive the evil is to be at all counteracted by any supposed uuturiety give it to those publication' by -die depositing of such copies in the public libraries ?—Nut by any means. Du you conceive that your publications armoire any ad vantage by any such supposed notoriety'.—We do nut con. sorer the inippositiost of notoriety arising f the deposit tug of the books to be well founded, or productive of any advantage ; if we did, we should send the books to the pub. lie !thrash-a without any compulsion. With reganl to the high priced hooks, do you not con. eider that mail pies:ow, who, if they had not such access, would be obliged, in their peculiar line of inquiry or lite rary hal ,to punt base Koch books, decline to purchase them, because they know beforehand that they are there to be found ?—No doubt. Do you conceive that one copy, If deposited in such a public institution, may take away perhaps as many as ten iuAivtdnal purchasers ?—ln the course of a number of years I should think it might.

As s:•on as the Act passed, I directed a particular desk, with I con sulting ore, to enter rally hook that I poldished, and of course to 1.111.1 the eleven copies %stun ileinawleil; ■sod further, to show my good disposition tomards the R, 'fish Museum, I immediately acceded to their request to have all petiodieal works delivered to them on their publication, in•lesd of delaying till the term allowed by the Act, which would have rendered those works less interesting.

After the sale of the whole of that edition, were you ant obliged to buy up or collect some copies of that work, to make op the eleven to be delivered to the politic libraries? —I was. Upon the whole, yon consider the gratuitous delivery of eked, copies to the public libraries as a great grievance ? VI s. Mr William Daniell, called is. and examined. Has the Act, di,ecting the delivery of eleven copira to the /nadir libraries, bed any effect upon any publications which you hays made, or which you lied iutended to make?— Checking many. Will you be so good as to state what effect it had upon you onlividually ?—lt has prevented the continuation of a large folio wink. entituled "Oriental Scenery." It has pre vented also a reduced edition of an African work, another of Ceylon, " A gel ies of Scenes end Figures illustrative of the Customs of India, and of Persons and Animals peculiar to that Country." I b.'bere those are the chief works which the Act has checked sue in proceeding with. What do you apprehend to be the actual expense of the eleven copies which you have delivered to the public bina ries ?—There are two publications which have been pub lished since the Act of 11414, the one eutituled "The Coast of Great Britain," of which the cost of the eleven copies amounted to merrily-seven guineas ; the other • re duce.' edition from the large " Oriental Scenery," the cost of the eleven copies amounted to 2181. ; those are the two chief works that I have published since the Act, of which the eleven copies have beau demanded. Hare you any specimens of those works here ?--Yes ; I have a specimen of the large wook, which I shall be happy to ahrw to the Committee, to which I should have proceeded to add very materially, but fur the Art. Previous to the pa.sing of the Act, it answered your put. pose to go on with the publication, but since you have dos continued ti'—Yea, I have.

And that it is specially and inclusively for each copy ? Yes, out of my own pocket. la the .-ecimens before the Committee, there are twenty-four, I think 1 niay any, very highly-finished prints. Have yen understood that you are liable to deliver copies of works of this description under the Act ?—Yee ; I have uuderstaid so, in cons. quince or the letter-press. Mr. William Bernard Cooke, called in, and examined. The Committee understand you are an engraver and pub lisher ?—al am. Are you nut publishing . a work upon the Ruins of Pompeii?-1 am. What would be the price of a complete copy of that work '—A complete copy would be sixteen guineas, and the price of the copies upon India paper thirty two guineas. f Is that the retail price ?—Yes; the retail price to the public. Then what will he the amount of eleven copies at the re tail price?-2011.12. ; because the finest copies are claimed by the British Museum. What would he the amount of eleven copies at the trade price ?-161/ Which of those priers WOlll.l ”:111 lose by delivery of the eleveu copies ?—As publisher, I should lose the 2011. 12a. the full price. If the Act of 1814 had not passed, should you have ex pected any of the libraries to have been subscribers to the work?-1 certainly ; because the British Museum bad purchased the tirst edition of the Thames, and have die widowed purchasing any other work since. What other troika of this sort do you mean to pith lista ?-1 am also pliblishing a work called the Thames, and the murk of the Southern Coast of Eloglaud, (ruin drawiup by Turner. How will the delivery affect you upon them ?—The lose sustained by delivering the Thaitits will be 813/.45.; that of the Southern Coast 1312 Has the delivery or the eleven copies in yamr opinion operated to discouraie such publications ?—Most certainly.
