On the Ist of January, IfiSO, will be published, Vol. 1, (To be continued in Monthly Vo!umes,) of 7 7,D11E FAMILY CLASSICAL BRARY ; or ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS of the most valuable GREEK and LATIN CLASSICS. " Cicero remarks that not to know what has been trans acted in farmer times, is to continue always a child. If no use is made of the labours of past ages, the world must remain always in the infancy of knowledge."—Johnsen. To those who are desirous of obtaining a knowledge of the most esteemed Authors of Greece and Rome,. but possess not the means or leisure for pursuing a regular course of study, the present undertaking must prove a valuable acquisition. So diversified are the objects to which general education is at present directed, that sufficient time cannot be al lowed, in most instances, to lay the foundation of an ade quate acquaintance with the most popular Authors in the Greek and Latin languages. In those instances even, in which the object has been attained—where the taste has been formed, and the habit of occasional recurrence to the Clissics has been preserved—the facility of reference to a Series of correct and eleg,nt Translations must afford plea sure, and oc:asional assist ince, even to the scholar. To him who, as Dr. Knox observes, although engaged in other pursuits, is still anxious to " retain a tincture of that el..ganee and liberality of sentiment - iehich the mind acquires by a study of the Classics, and which contributes more to form the true gentleman, than all the substituted ornaments of modern affectation," such a Collection will, it is confidently hoped, prove acceptable. As the learned languages do not form part of the educa tion of Females, the only access which they have to the valuable stores cf antiquity is through the medium of cor rect translation. ' The present Selection is intended to include those Au thors, whose works may with propriety be read by the youth of both sexes. The whole will be presented to the public in a cheap, elegant, and uniform size, forming a complete " Family Classical Library," alike useful for the purposes cf instructim and amusement. Indeed, as Dr. Parr says, " if you desire your son, though no great scho lar, to read and reflect, it is your duty to place into his hands the best Translations of the best Classical Authors." A Biographical Sketch will be prefixed to each Author; and Notes will be added, when necessary for the purpose of illustration. The importance attached, in the present day, to Trans lations of the Classic Authors may be estimated by the fact, that a series has been recently published in France, and another in the Russian language is now in progress, under the itnmedia.e sanction of the laluTial Government. The excellence, as orators and historians, of Demos thenes, Cicero, Herodottts, and Xenophon, will place them foremost in the collection of Prose Authors: these will be followed by Thoeydides, Livy, Sallust, Tacitus, &c. Ho mer, Virgil, and Horace, will justly take precedence among the Poets. CONDITIONS.

REPORT MADE to the KING of FRANCE, The Keeper of the Seals in France has just sub mitted for the year 1828, his annual Report to the King, on the state of the Criminal and Civil Juris prudence of that country. The first part of it has not yet come to our hands, but from the second part, contained in the Journal dcs Debuts of Friday, we make the following extracts : The crimes of the Press and of the Book trade in 1828, in Paris, and its departments, amounted to 162 accusations; 11G cases were brought to trial, and of them 72 were acquitted, and 90 found guilty. Of the 90, 28 were fined only, and 62 fined and imprisoned. The appeals were 5,833, being, like last year, the one-twentieth part of the causes tried in the first instance. Of 100 decisions appealed against, 54 were confirmed, and 46 reversed, in whole or in part. Of 2,426 persons accused, who Were finally, on appeal, acquitted, 298 were arrested, 38 had been detained less than a month, 118 from one to six months, 92 from two to three months, and 50 for above three months. The number of relapsed criminals, or of those ac. cused a second time, which, in 1826, was 756, in 1817, 893, was, in 1828, 1,182, of which 1,009 were males, and 173 females. But it is to be ob served that this augmentation is only of persons who had been punished correctionally ; and, per haps, it is now to be attributed to a greater correct ness than formerly into convictions of this descrip tion. The number of those who have previously been subject to hard labour has diminished, within the three years, from 179 to 1.52, and that of the accused liberated from confinement has not varied. Among the relapsed, 905 had only been once be fore condemned, when they again appeared as cri minals ; 190 had been twice before condemned, 64 three times, 13 four times, seven five times, two six times, and only one before incurred seven condemna tions ; and, for the eighth time, he was sentenced to hard labour. Of the 1,182 relapsed criminals, 146 were pro secuted for crimes against the person, which make 12 in the 100, while the genetsl proportion of crimes against the person, in the whole number of accused, was 25 in the 100. In 1827, the proportional number of these crimes was 28 in the 100 in the whole number, and only 11 in the 100 in the relapsed. In 1828, 251 per sons were accused of assassination ; of this number 18 had been condemned and liberated ; four of these had previously been sentenced to hard labour, one to close confinement, and 13 to simple imprisonment. Of 114 sentenced to death, 17 belonged to the class of those who had been liberated (15 in the 100), five had suffered hard labour, three close con finement, and nine imprisonment. The disposition to steal is what most manifests itself among the discharged criminals. Of the 1,182 relapsed, 835 had before been punished for theft; 967 were prosecuted for the same crime in 1828. Among the former sentences, 21 in the 100 were for crimes against the person. In the new prosecutions there were only 12 in the 100, which seems to show that punishment is more efficacious to soften the passions which lead to a violation of the right of property. The Correctional Tribunals had to try in 1828, 3,58 persons arraigned for a repetition of offences, 2,790 being males, and 788 females; 2,6841 had only suffered one correctional punishment; 584 bad been punished twice, 189 three times, 64 four times, 30 five times; 27 had been punished from six to 36 times. Uniting the accused to the arraigned, of those who had relapsed the total is 4,760, who having been punished and discharged were prosecuted again in 1828. Of this number 292 had been previously fined, 2,673 had been imprisoned for less tha►► one year, 1,771 imprisoned more than one year, 276 had been condemned to close confinement, and 348 to hard labour. Of these firee latter classes, witl► the . exception of 391 whose history is not known, 298 were in the hulks, 1,273 in the nineteen central houses of detention, 62 in the four great prisons con ' fleeted with the central houses, and 375 in other piisons. Of the relapsed, 29 in the 100 have been in the 1 . hulks at Brest, 24 in the 103 in those of L'Orient, L 25 in the 100 at Rochfort, and 26 at Toulon. For the four hulks together it is 27. Of the prisoners in the central house, the pro portion of relapsed criminals is 31 in the 100, or four more than of those in the hulks. The proportion varies in the diffuent central houses from between 10 in the 100 to 52; the former proportion was formed of the prisoners in the central houses of Cadhillai, which contains only women ; the latter proportion was formed of the prisoners at Loos, which contains both sexes. The central house of Nismes only gave 16 re lapsed out of 100 persons discharged, of Clermont (Oise) 17, of Montpellier 19, of Embrun ( Elautes- Alpes) .22, of Lysses (Lot and Garon; , e) 24, of Pois:y (Seine and Oise) 44, of Gaillon (Pure) 40, of Rennes 47. The central house of correction of Soissons (Aisne) supplied, of 100 persons dis charged, 62 who were re-accused. Investigations are to be made with a view to ascertain the causes of these differences in esta blishments which appear to be regulated by the same laws. The results of the new prosecutions directed against discharged criminals were that 406 have been acquitted, 243 fined, one placed in the pillory, 17 condemned to death, 479 sentenced to hard labour for life or for a term of years, 1577 sentenced to imprisonment for lets than one year; and finally 2,037, including 16S persons discharged from the hulks, have been sentenced to close confinement or to imprisonment for more then one year, which they are to suffer in the central houses of detention, which, unfortunately, afford no means of separating them from other prisoners. The total number of the condemned, who, accord ing to their punishment, must have been sent to these central houses in 1828, was 9431, and the re lapsed portion of these 22 in the 100. The time which has passed between the libera tion and the relapse has been carefully marked in several tables, for all classes of criminals. The pro portion of those who have relapsed in the first year of their return is 28 in the hundred of the galley slaves; 26 of those Ivim had undergone the punish ment of solitary confinement ; 37 of those who had suffered imprisonment for a year and upwards ; 47 of those imprisoned for a shorter period. Thus, in the last year, those who have undergone the severest punishments appear less ready to resume their criminal pursuits. Several tables of the first and second part point out the age of the individuals who had relapsed at the time of their first or their last sentence. We see there that 1231 individuals, out of 4,760, a little more than a quarter, had not attained their 21st year when they entered the career of crime.- They would, perhaps, have been corrected by their first sentence, if it had been possible to place them in private prisons:conformably to the wise provision of the Royal Ordinance of Sept. 9, 1814. The third part of the account presents, in five tables, the number of the decisions pronounced by the Police Tribunals in each Department. We find there 95,589 cases, and 132,167 persons accused, which gives us 6,756 cases, and 9,152 persons charged more than in 1827. The fourth pirt comprehends twenty-three tables, in which are classed all information with respect to the preparation and decision of criminal and correc tional proceedings. The Chambers of the Council of the Tribunals of :he First Instance have discharged from proceedings 16,409 culprits, of whom 7,334. had been appre lended during the inquiry. That is a little less :han in 1827. The Chambers of Accusation have discharged 1,327 culprits; 865 were in prison; they were de tained as follows :—For less than a month, 237; from one to two months, 306 ; from two to three months, 191; from three to six months, 99; above six months, 31. Two were detained by virtue of a preceding sentence. Among the facts, the causes of which justice was bound to verify, we remark 4,855 accidental deaths, 1,75 , 1 suicides, and 86 duels, 29 of which were pro ductive of death. The Chambers of Council have pronounced in all 41,647 decrees, which is 2,633 more than in 1827. The number of cases submitted to that first degree of jurisdiction has continually increased for the last four years; however, the zeal of the Magistrates has, in every year, been able to increase the celerity of their proceedings. In 1825, decrees to the num ber of 81 in the hundred were pronounced in the three first months, in cases of crime or delinquency; in 1826, 82 : in 1827, 81; in 1828, 88. The criminal accusations also have been deter mined a little more readily than in 1827; 65 in the hundred have been submitted w a jury in the first six months, instead of 64, and that progress has been principally found in those places in which your Majesty remarked most slowness. It is true that the proportion in the six months has ris e n from 45 to Corsica, from 22 to 30; at Montpellier, from 42 to 56; at Pau, from 56 to 66; at Riom, from 46 to .51; at Toulouse, from 89 to 46. This result appeared to me worthy of being remarked to your Majesty, because, by proving praiseworthy efforts, it chews that the slowness does not arise from insurmountable obstacles. A new table shows the duration of a process be ginning with the time the accused is placed in the hands of justice; 90 in the hundred accused persons have been tried within the first six months; and 43 in the hundred in the first three months. In Angers and Orleans, 99 in the hundred have been tried in six months, 62 and 59 in three months. The Correctional Tribunals have determined 86 cases in the hundred, in the space of three months from the time of the crime; they had determined 91 in 1827. The Courts of Appeal have deter mined 71 instead of 67, in the two months of appeal. The correctional judgments have been pronounced with great exactness. Out of the hundred persons condemned to imprisonment, 89 have begun to undergo their imprisomnent within three months from their condemnation. There were only 81 in 1827. One hundred and seventeen were implicated, in 1828, in 93 criminal or correctional trials. The authority to prosecute has been granted with regard to .58 of them by the Chiefs of the Administrations to which they respectively belong; and with regard to 21 of them, by your Majesty, on the advice of your Council of State. It has been refused for 38. Of the 79 thus prosecuted, 25 were dismissed by the Chamber of Accusation ; 25 were acquitted—six by the Correctional Tribunals, and 19 by the Courts of Assize ; 27 were condemned—six of them to infamous punishments, two to imprisonment for one year and upwards, two for less, 10 were fined, and two are not yet tried.—Journal des Debats. INIPOLICY OF HIGH DUTIES.—As proofs (Rays the Chester Chronicle) among many, that excessive taxation defeats itself, it may be mentioned, that, at this time, when the duty on French wines is 6s. a gallon, the produce to the revenue is greater than when it was Ils. sd. ; and the duty on coffee, at Is. a pound, produced, in 1823, 393,703/. whereas, when reduced in 1815, to 6d. the amount was 126,1871.

PRICE 7p. POPULAR PHRASES. Nothing can be more misapplied than same of our most hackneyed and popular phrases : for example— " LICENSED VICTUALLER."—Of all citizens the Victualler is the most fettered, and consequently the least licensed—witness every Qu irter Sessions. The Magistrates are licensed to their hearts' content. THE BENEFIT OF TIIE INSOLVENT ACT."— Query, to which party is the benefit to be applied— the debtor or creditor? there is no mistake in ap plying it to the Commissioners. " CHURCH ESTABLISHMENT."---Examine nine tenths of the Church—viz. the working Clergy— enter their houses—what are their establishments? The Bishops can best tell. " BIBLE AND CROWN " —Should ;be Crown at;d Bible, for the Crown is always represented upper most. It would be turning the world topsy-turvy, i. c. unhinging society, to put the Bible over the Crown. " THE BOOK TBADE."—Not misapplied—author ship is indeed a trade. ‘‘ NOT AT i 103 f E."—Answer given at street doors when people are most at home.: " As UNBELIEVING AS A JEIV."—Of nil human beings the Jew is the most credulous and faithful. His mental swallow is immeasurable. Good heavens! what does not a Jew believe ? " THE ORANGE FACTION."—UnIess blood be of an orange colour, which it may be, for aught we k: ow, with Papists and in Ireland, the term orange is sadly misapplied. " LIBERTY; LAW, GLORIOUS CONSTITUTION," &c.—These terms :Ire not misapplied, at least to the people of Newark, and to all other boroughs in these happy realms. TRUTH."-A speech from the Throne, a speech from the Treasury Bench, the cry of fresh fish in London streets, &c. 'We have the cry of our Glo rious Constitution, our equal Laws and free Govern ment, but no man ever yet heard the cry of " stink ing fish." They may very soon; the great must be kept in countenance. " QUlRT."—Applied to a bottle of wine, or a quart of spirits, milk, &c. in the trade of London. Tlie following important letter—important be cause explanatory of the peculiar duties of the police—woe received last night (Friday) by a special messenger from the Castle; and this morning we were favoured with a copy of it by the gentleman to whom it is addressed.— The question of the removal of the wholesale fish-market from Pill-lane, unimportant when intri:isieally considered, now appe.irs before the public under very altered circum stances. The Loan LIEUTENANT has expressed his dis approval of the employment of the police in effecting that removal. The police are paid for the discharge of duties far different from interfering to settle by force a di , puted legal question, and the Executive is deserving of praise for the very proper course adopted on this occasion. We re gard this official censure upon the employment of the police to decide by force a question which has not been settled by law, as indicative of • fair dealing and upright ness upon the part of the Government, which seems de termined to leave questions of civil right to the proper tri bunals, uninfluenced by the station of the parties concerned : Dublin Castle, Nov. 6, 1829. " Sin,—Your letter of the 21st ult., complaining, on the part of the persons engaged in the wholesale fish trade, of the horse police being employed to force them from the market in Pill-lane, having been referred to the divisional Jusoices of the Head Office of Police s , I have to acquaint you that the Lord Lieutenant, on consideration of all the circumstances, has signified his disapprobation of the em ployment of the police in the instance complained of in your communication, and has taken steps to prevent their .being employed in future under similar circumstances. " I am, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, " F. LEVESON GOWER. " Mr. Hanratty, 101, Pill-lane." Dublin Morning Register• of Saturday. COWES, Nov. 7.—We regret to announce the loss of the R. Y.C. yacht Halcyon, of 72 tons, be longing to CHAS. BownLza, Esq., who, with his lady and servants, sailed from tkis port on the22d July, touched at Falmouth, then proceeded to Lisbon, and Cadiz, and Gibraltar ; and in her voyage home, keeping along the French coast, was unfortunately, on the 22d ult., totally lost on those dangerous rocks the Saints, near Brest, the crew and passengers being providentially saved, though for a considerable time in imminent peril. Mr. 13ownLEK, his wife, and female servant, Miss BRACKENBURY (daughter of the British Consul at Cadiz), and Mr. CHARLES HILL, who composed the party, were safely landed at Brest, whete the Master and crew left them, and proceeded to St. Ma loes ; here they took passage i❑ the Lord Bercsford steam-packet, and were yesterday put on shore here. From them we learn that the R.Y.C. yacht Ondine arrived all well at Cadiz, previous to the sailing of the Halcyon for Gibraltar, where she found his Majesty's ship Dartmouth, on board which our Noble Commodore's second son is serv ing as a Royal midshipman, and had the honour of achiev ing a feather for his cap in the brilliant action at Navarin. Mr. BOWDLER visited and found him in excellent health and spirits. On the 10th that frigate sailed on a cruize. On the Bth and 9th, as we had previously learnt, the Britannia and Melville passed the Rock The Halcyon sailed from Gibraltar on the 11th. The garrison was quite healthy ; and she left a frigate, two sloops of war, and a brig, belonging to Holland, in the bay. DESCRIPTION OF CROMWELL.—His eye brows, we are told, were large and shaggy, his counte nance approaching to the circular, and the feature already so often mentioned attracted the attention of every be holder. When Major-General MASSEY was intro duced into the Presence-chamber at the Hague, after his escape from England, immediately after the violent death of CHARLES the First, the Marquis of MONTROSE, by way of drollery, asked him " how OLIVER'S nose did ?" CLEMENT WALKER ssys, that when CROMWELL ordered the soldiers to fire, in the insurrection of the London ap prentices, " his nose looked as prodigiously upon you as a comet ;" and speaking of the government making treason no treason, he adds, that should the House vote that " OLIVER'S nose is a ruby, they would expect you to swear to it, and fight for it."—Russell's Life of Cromwell. THE WILD HORSE.—AII travellers who have crossed the plains extending from the shores of La Plata to Patagonia have spoken of numerous droves of wild horses. Some affirm that they have seen 10,000 in one troop. They appear to be under the command of a leader, the strongest anti boldest of the herd, and which they implicitly obey. A secret instinct teaches them that their safety consists in their union, and in a principle of subordination. The lion, the tiger, and the leopard, are their principal enemies. At some signal, intelligible to them all, they either close into a dense mass, and trample their enemy to death, or, placing the mares and foals in the centre, they form themselves into a circle, and wel come him with their heels. In this attack, their leader is the first to face the danger, and, when prudence de mands a retreat, they follow his rapid flight.—Library of Useful Knowledge. ALLEGED MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER HusnAeen.—From the hour of three o'clock yesterday the entire neighbourhood of Spitalfields was kept in an unre mitting state of ferment by the rumoared murder of an elderly female, by her husband asd his supposed paramour. Throughout the afternoon Vine -court, where the imputed crime was perpetrated, was thronged by a multitude of the inhabitants of the adjoining streets. Information of the occurrence was communicated to the'parish officers, and the police of Worship-street Office, and, amid the threats of an incensed crowd, by whom they were followed, the accused were apprehended and taken to the watch-house. We have been furnished with an account of the circum stances which are said to have led to the death of the de ceased, but, as the information does not coma in the shape of evidence, and might possibly he but the creation of po pular rumour, we decline entering father into the sub ject at piesent. After the caption of the parties, the space in front of the watch-house was thronged by a number of persons, who remained there for hours, anti followed the alleged culprits to Worship-street Police office. A brief examination took place then before Mr. BENETT, and the prisoners were remanded until this day, when it is intended to enter more m.nutely into the grounds of the accusation against them. The most momentous day in the civic ealen•llr clo • sed yesterday. after Ihr usual manner, I,‘ , 1 G.,,q in Guildhall. The appointment 'differed little from :hose which have glittered in other yuar. Th•J only striking aheratinu was a ' , lll/Etitution of a jar l e: mirror in the place of the gothic window at the end Cl!' the iliiN. 'ilk is doubtless an improvement, but iii a hot and crowded room the effect of a mirror must necessarily be injured in a great measure. It became very hazy in the course of an hour. The star placed over the principal table was very superb ir measured, we were told, tifreetrfeet from point t-, ► point, perpendicularly. There seas no ether nov e l ly , we believe, to grace the inauguration of the new Lord Mayor; and yet Gog and Magog, see thought looked more ~ c rious and thoughtful than usual ; b ut that might have resulted from their being not a little ashamed of the misetable choristers who every now and then annoyed the company with what they called singing. These gentlemen chaunted as indep.cle. dent:). of each other as if they had not been hired to sing together, which, however, was doubtless their engagement. But this drawback is :scarcely worth mentioning, when the dinner was excellent, and every body good-humoured. Among the guests on this occasion, we observed many who are no t or dinarily accustomed to visit the east. Of his Ma jesty's Ministers present, the principal were the Duke of Wellington, Mr. Secretary Peel, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, and Sir George Murray. Of the Judges, the Chief Baron, Barons Vaughan, Garrow, &c., the Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas, Mr. Justice Park, and Mr. j t;s ; i co James Parke. The Solicitor-General was the arty law officer of the Crown whom we observed, but. the' Serjeants-at-law were numerous. After dinner, the usual civic toasts were drank with applause. Then " The King," " The Dtik,! of Clarence, and the rest of the Royal Famil4," were drank with three times three. The LORD ALIYOR proposed " The health of turn Duke of Wellington, and the r es t o f hi s Majesty's Ministers."—( Loud applause.) ___. The Duke of WELLINGTON returned thanks in a few words. He thanked them for the bottom- they had done him, and observed that to %I-tacit ot - cr tha interests of a country like this was at once an im portant and an interesting duty, but that it etto , l only be made a grateful and an useful task whi!e Id Majesty's Ministers enjoyed the confidence of th!l people.—(Cheers.) congratulated them on thu auspicious choice they had made in eleetinJ.: Mr. Alderman Crowder to the mayoralty, and begacd to propose " The health of the new Lord Mayor." The LORD MAYOR returned thanks, but we e gret to say that not one word he uttered reached us. The health of Mr. secretary Peel was received with loud cheers. Mr. Secretary PEEL returned thanks. rai,t that he heartily concurred in the sentiment eNpresrvc; by his illustrious friend (the Duke of Wellington j: This, perhaps, was all that it was necessary for him to say, and yet he could not lie!p feeling that he had that day entered the hall in a new Chilli:o er.-- . • -- (Cheers.) He was proud to say that he had befit enrolled a member of that honourable Corporation. —(Loud cheers.) Ii it were possible that any thing could make him take a deeper interest in the welfare of the city of London, it was this honour, which was rendered more valuable to him by the manner in which it had been conferred.-4Lond cheers.) His illustrious friend had proposed the health of the Lord Mayor : he bcgged kayo to pro pose that of the Lady Mayoress. Ail who krww, the worth and virtues of that lady would be f.itt.. prised if he did Hot add to his toast a ropte,t that it might be drank with every demonstration of respect. The health of the Lady Mayoress was then drank with three times three, and the Lord Mayor rc- turned thanks. The healths of his Majesty's Min4ters were drank separately, and the Right lion.. Gentlemen severally returned thanks. Shortly after ten o'clock the ladies retired, and the majority of the company departed. The festivities of the evening passed off very agreeably. The Lord Mayor's dinner is perhaps the most at tractive of all entertainments of a similar character, and the popularity of the present Mayor made this more so than usual. This annual festival, too, pos sesses an advantage which is too frequently banished from civic feasts. We mean the presence of tho ladies. Our fair readers will be curious to know . _ ..... how they were dressed, and the gentlemen will ask how they looked. The latter know that gallantry no less than truth prevents our answering their in quiries in any but one way ; and for the former let the dress of the Lady Mayoress satisfy them. Her Ladyship wore a splendid dress of tulle over white satin, richly embroidered in gold lama, with wreaths and columns of raised gold flowers; with a supers) border to correspond, elegantly finished Avid] bou quets of gold roses and drooping flowers. The body and sleeves trimmed with rich Chantille blond, and blond seduisantes. A manteau of white satin, beau tifully embroidered with a broa'l wreath of . raised gold lama, and trimmed with blond. The head• dress was composed of a beautiful plume of white feathers, diamonds, and broad bland lappets. THE LATE SMUGGLING TRANSACTION. (From the Morning Chronicle.) We learn, by a communication from Paris, that Lord Stuart de Rothesay, the British Ambassador, has dismissed from his establishment every indivi dual on whom a shadow of suspicion rested, as hav ing been in any the most remote degree implicated in the late attempt to introduce contraband commo dities into France. We understand that his Lordship, with a proper feeling of what was due to his own character, and to dint of the country which he represents, instituted a scrutiny of the most minute and rigorous deFerip. Lion, and the result has been what we hare already stated—the punishment was not confined to those for whose advantage the transaction wai inter) 'led ; but included all who, by concealment or connivance forwarded the affair, even without a prospect of di rect participation in the emolument. It may be said, that this step on the part of the Ambassador was nothing mere than the nature of the case imperatively required, and the observation has our unqualified concurrence; but there is an in ference to be drawn from it, infinitely more import ant than anything directly appertaining to the ob scure and culpable individuals who have been de servedly punished. The point we desire to enforce is this—that the Ambassador, by fearlessly and in discriminately discharging from his household every domestic to whom suspicion attached, no matter how remotely, establishes incontestably the fact which we have uniformly asserted, upon authority perfectly unquestionable, that his own character was entirely unassailable. Had he felt the possibility of being personally implicated by any investigation, the last step that be would have adopted must have been that of discarding the individuals who, from the nature of their previous occupation, were of ne cessity most cognizant of all the details of the trans action; and who,in addition to the motives of self interest common to all informers, would feel the ad ditional and effectual stimulus of resentment, to urge them to establish the guilty participation of the principal, who had not hesitated to sacrifice his accomplices. Between eleven and twelve o'clock yesterday forenoon, as the Lord Mayor's state carriage was proceed ing from the Greengard in Whitecress-street, where it usually stands, towards the Mansion-how, in passing through Coleman-stteet, the crowd was so dense that a young lad, an apprentice to a baker, was forced under the horses' feet, trampled upon by them, and the wheels of the carriage passed over his body, by which his arm was broken to pieces, and his chest dreadfully crushed and lacerated. The unfortunate youth wtut immediately carried to the house of Dr. EDINBOROUGU, closely adjoining, by whom every possible assistance was rendered, but apparently to little effect, as he was carried to St. Bartholomew's Hospital without any hopes of his life being fnellerted.
