It !TOW appears to be certain, says our Gazette, that the African Piratical Powers will not be suf. fered much longer to continue their depredations.-gt The States of America have already declared, that instead of submitting to a disgraceful Tribute, they '►bill fit out toil* Frigates for the proteaion of their Trade ; and it is generally asserted, that tnglish and French Frigates i with Flags of Truce, have demanded of the 13EY, in the name of their tespet. five Nations: Ist. That all Slaves of thbse nations now in the hands of the Tunisians, shall be set at liborty, Id. That all the Corsairs shall be disarmed. 3d.

A Deputation 'of Lyonese Ladies presented her with a boiiquet. of flowers, u!tich she received with equal sensibility and grace. The bottom of the room displayed Androcles drawing the thorn out of the Lion's foot. The general joy was increased by same excellent music, a brilliant illumination, a prodigious afflu ence of specia tors, and, above all, by the presence of the First Consul and his Wife. As soon as they made their appearance, the concert began, and an Air written for the occasion was sung by Math LONGUE, and Citizen GER B ET. It has been remarked, that almost all the Ladies in the two balls that have been given, were dressed in silks of the Lyonese manufafture. On the zoth, the Minister of the Interior went to visit the School of Rural Vetetinary CEconomy.— IL: entered into all the details of the internal ma. nagement of that establishment, which is managed by Citizen &unix.

RAT ISBON, JAN. r 5 --The Minister who dis charges the funaions of Hereditary Marshal of the Empire, has made it be announced to the other Members cf the Diet, that from the Ist of January, the opening of the Sittings will not -take, place till mid-day. Formerly it had bts.'en:gxed at' eight in the morning, although the Ministers did not, in faa, assemble till midday.

STUTGARDT, J AN. t6.—The two Ex-Ministers of Wurtemberg, WOELLEWARTH and HOFFMANN, have gained their suit against the Duke, before the Aulic Council of the Empire at Vienna. The Duke had disgraced them two years ago ; the first, for having advised his deceased Father to conclude a Treaty of Pace with France, which the Duke pre tended to be disadvantageous to Wurtemberg : and the second, for having taken part with the States. The two Ministers seeing themselves disgraced, without sufficient reason, brought an adion against the Duke before the Supreme Tribunal of the Em pire, That Tribunal found their plea well-found ed ; but as it could not hope to be able to oblige the Duke to receive them again into his service, it condemned him to pay to each of them an. Annual Pension of zOOO florins. The Duke has submitted to this decree, and paid the pension for the year I gor. The two Ex. Ministers are employed in writing the History of their Disgrace, which they intend to publish. The Hereditary PRINCE of NAPLES, at the in:. stance of the French Minister, in the name of the Futs - r CONSUL, has given permission to the cele_ brated Musician PAESI ELL() ) Master of the Chapel of this Court, to go to Pari4,.,• there to compose the Music intended to aecoinp_any the Fetes to be given on the conclusion of the Definitive Treaty.

M. de PELTZER, who had been named as Aus trian Minister in Scuitzer/and, has received sud. denly an unexpeEted order to go to England, to take charge of the Austrian Affairs there, during the absence of Count STAI-IREMIS ERG, who has got six months leave to return to Vienna. A Gentleman at Fuilarton in the neighbourhood of Glasgow, wishing to make an experiment on the power of .frost, procured a bomb.shell ten inches diameter, the cavity of which he completely filled up with water, and skrewed an iron plug into the fusee, that none of it might. escape. The shell, that it might be fairly exposed to the frost, was sus pended in the air by means of a triangle. This ex.. Pertinent was made on the afternoon of the r3th ult. Next morning, he went to examine the shell, when he found it burst in two ; one half of it having been thrown about five yards to the one side, and the other about seven yards in. a contrary direttion. Several of the first families in the neighbourhood of Cumberland-place, New-road, Mary-le-bonne, have lately discovered that they were frequently robbed of very valuable articles, but could not deter} the robber. At length suspicion fell on the girl who brought Newspapers to the houses, and on Saturday she was examined at the Public Office, Bow -street, when a Pawnbroker produced various articles the prisonr, had,. pledged, and as signed as a reason for taking such articles into pawn from the Prisoner, that she said they belonged to a gentleman its distress. The Magistrate repro bated the Pawnbroker's conduEl, in taking such arti cles in pledge. from a girl who is only about six teen years of age. A most lamentable thing came out on examination, that there was teason to believe the girl's mind was corrupted by her mother, who had long since bean convieted of shop-lifting ; but, on account of the excellence of the charafter of the father, the Magistrate offered to use his influence. to get her into the Magdalen, LATY REPoR".4.. COURT OF KING's BENCH, TEE. T. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL moved for a Man damus to be direcied to the Magistrates of the Quarter Sessions; at Hicks's Hall, commanding them to proceed tipon a trial respeding the quan turn to be allowed to a Gentleman who had certain land which it was deemed necessary to purchase, to carry on the purposes of the London Wet Dock Company, in ereeting a Dock for the accommodat ing the trade and shipping, &c. This application was made on the authority of the /V.l of the 4.oth of the King, which was for making these Docks, and which enabled the Commissioners; '- &c. to purchase, not only land through which - canals- and cuts are to be made, but also to purchase .certain pieces of land adjoining, or near to them, such as may be convenient for carrying into execution the plan for the completion of the Docks. The inhe ritance of a certain part which was necessary to be occupied for this purpose, near to the place in ques tion had been purchased, and a very fair, adequate, and indeed much mote than adequate price had been offered for that which was now wanted, but the Patty refused to take it; the regular course in that case, as prescribed by the AEt, was to sumvin Jury for the purpose of trying the value of tlyt pro perty so wanted for the above public purpose.— Application had been made to the Magistrates to summon a Jury to try the value of the property thus required. The Magistrates, however, seemed to be of opinion that the proposed purchase in this case, was not within the provision of the Act, and this Motion was made for the purpose ?of ascer taining whether this was within the pro'✓ision of the At or not ; it was necessary to do this, be cause if it was not within the At, an application must be made to the Legislature to extend the powers under that At ; but if it was, they► might be told so in answer to such an application. This Was a point of great importance and magnitude, upwards of a million of money being em'e , arked in it. The Magistrates thought they had no power to aft in it under the provisions of this Aft of Par . liament, and this Motion was made to obtain a • judicial determination on the construction of the A6l. Mr. Justice GitosE having looked. at the part of the At which relates to thiS ii&vit, said, the Court would grant a Rule to 'spew Cause, but at present, he could hardly see his way through. this business. Rule to sheer Cause granted. Mr. GIBBS moved for a Writ of Mandamus to be direled to the Mayor of the county of the Bo rough of Carmarthen, commanding him to admit Edward Davis to the Freedom of the Borough. He said, he moved this on an Affidavit which stated the constitution of the Borough, and swore that the person on whose behalf this application was made, was entitled to the Freedom, according to the constitution of the Borough ; that application was made, and a refusal, &c. He had another Case in the same situation precisely. Writ ordtired to be issued. Mr. DAVIS moved for leave to 11;e a Criminal Information against Mr. William Protheroi, a Sad ler, in the town of Landilo, in the county of Car marthen, and also an Officer in Lord Dynevor's Regiment. This he moved on an Affidavit stating that Mr. john'Rees,. an Attorney, was at an Inn at Landilo, where was also the Defendant, who boarded there. The Parties had some difference, which Mr.. Prothero proposed to settle by a duel, at the same time making use, as it was stated, of abusive language ; the challenge not being accepted on the part of Mr. Rees, Mr. Prothero left the room, and Mr. Rees went into another in the same house. Mr. Prothero in 'At, short time returned and came into the room where Mr. Rees wasi,, with a p;,..ir of loaded pistUls—he unscrewed the barrels of the pistols to shew that they were loaded, and desired that Mr. Rees would take one of them, and go to the other end of the TOVI to settle the dispute at one. Mr. Rees declined it. Mr. justice GROSE not having dittinfily'heard, asked what Mr. Profiler() was ?-- Mr. bAv IS said he was if SaMer,i)at that he was also an Officer in Lord Dynevor's Regiment. Mr. Justice GP.OSE said, he thougtt it would be better to go with this business before a Grand Jury, than call for the extraordinary interference of the Court. Mr Justice LAWRENCE said, the Attorney General of the Circuit aright take this- aliair under his care, with great propriety. Rule refused: Upon a Question, whether a Capias ad Satisfa. ciendum should not issue for the purpose of re-taking a Defendant, who bad been discharged upon the last Insolvent Debtors Act, as it was alledged by fraud, it was contended on one side, that the Capias ought to issue for taking up the Defendant again, on the ground that he obtained his discharge behind -theibacli of the Plaintiff, and that he would not have had: it, if opposed, for that he was not in titled to it, under all the circumstances of the case. The fads are shortly these.--Ile was arrested be.. fore the ist of March, t Sot :—the, day to which the last Ad of Parliarnont referred, was out on Bail until the t zch of June. The Ad of Parliament which governs this case—the last Insolvent Ad— received the Royal Assent on the z7th of June. On the one side it was contended, that the De fendant must have been adually in prison, before the first day of March, before he could come under the benefit of this •Ad, whereas, this appeared only to be a simple arrest, and bail given. On the other side, it was contended,. that the arrest constituted the imprisonment required by this Ad of Parliament. The Court observed, that this'Ael of Parliament had, in its spirit, avowedly a.liberat regard to the personal freedom of those who were the objets of it, and, therefore, ought to receive a liberal con struttion. The Defendant, when an ested, might, be held to he imprisoned, and must continue to be in prison, until he gave bail, and might be thrown into prison after bail was put in, because the bail might render him yg their own discharge, when they thotight t; and, thatfore, he i . 'hs intittcd to h::* discharge under this Ad, when lie took the benefit, ,of it. This was muter a Clause in the 6ii Sedior, • which vas not like other Insoic'ent Debtors' Acts,. h',ll" such was the spirit, as expressed by the letter of it—lf he was indite& to the discharge when he took the benefit of the Ad, it was needless to g,c into the ques:ion of alledged fraud, ire:ruse, sup.., posing that to have taken place, the only thing that : could be done upon it, would he to take him up again, and discharging him again ; for if he was' entitled to his discharge then, he was if/tided CO: It 110 W.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS; MOrDAY,rza. t., EACLETON zi. lift4blA COMPANY. This came before the Court by way of argument on a Special Case. The ACiion was tried at ono of the Sittings at Guildhall, NVlilia verdict wag' found for the Plaintiff, damages . 2s. subject to the opinion of !he Court on a Special Case. By the faa6 found by the jury it appeared, that the Plaintiff had at a former period bought a e.juan-' tity of tea at one of the Company's Saks, for v,-hich he paid the deposit, but afrwarti, failed to !NI the remainder of the purchase-movy by the iimatca time. The Company agreed to s f.;ve him fortller time, within which he paid the money with serest. The The Company, however, refused to peruit the Plaintiff to purcihe at their Sales until he made satisfadion. The Plaintiff became the best bidder at a subsequent Sale for a quantity of Tea and ten. tiered the deposit, but the Company refused to ac cept him as the pUrchaser of the Tea, in pursuance of the resolution they had made; in consequence of which refusal the Adion was brought. Mr.,Serjeant BEST now argued on behalf of the Plaint cif, He stated, that the East India Com pany wercompelled by Law to sell the tea they a public Sale, by inch of candle, and contended 'that the best bidder at any such Sale Must he considered as the purchaser, and become entitled tolhe tea on. paying the deposit according to Law, and the remaik.der of the purchase-money by the time fixed for that purpose. He cOntended that the . Company had no right to make any Bye law to kTstrain trade, or to prevent any individual whatever from bidding or becomiog a purchaser at their Sales, and that the consequences of any such power being vested in the Company, would be pro dudive of the greatest injury to TrAe, and the Public in general. The East India Company en.. tirely monopolized the importation of tea, and if they were enabled to exclude any individual, at pleasure, from purchasing at their Sales-, they might create another Monopely of the most injurious na.. ture, in the hands of a few persons chosen by them.. selves, whilst the objet of the Aet of Parliament s restricting the Company from selling their tea otherwise than at a public Sale, would be entirely defeated. Added to this, th' consequences of such a power exercised by the Company would be highly injurious to the Revenue, as parsons who were pro.;, hiLited from .purchasing tea at the Comrany's Sales would be induced to purchase smuggled tea for flit; purpose of carrying on their trade. He also con.. tended, that the manner in which purchasers should make their deposits, and the regulations relative ta the - payment of the purchase-money, being esta:. Wished by At of Parliament, 'by which the cases were laid down where persons should not be at liberty to bid at the tOmpany's Sales, it was poSi.. tive evidence that tl!e Company had no right of themselves to prohibit any person from bidding at their Sales, otherwise there would have been no ne. cessiv for . an Aft of Parliament upon the subjeft. The Learned Serjeant conanded by a general sum.: mary of his arguments on behalf of the Verdid. Lord ALVANLEY being obliged . to sit at Nisi Prius, the further hearing cf the argumtnts in this Cause was postponed. Nothing of importance occurred at Nisi Prius. A shocking accident happened yesterday morn° ing, at one of the new houses near Guildford-street two Carpenters were at work at the front of a house in the balcony, which unfortunately gave way, and the poor men fell into the area, by which one had the misfortune to fradure his skull ; he was taken to the Middlesex Hospital; where, in spite of every immediate assistance, he expired in a few hours ; the other man, we hear; is likely to do well.
