TIRE PENITEVTIAIti AT NIILLBANK.—ThiIi building, about which so much has been stated in the reports of Coroners' Inquests, is, to be immediately. pulled down. It has been ascertained that the foundation is giving way, and on .that account, as well as on account of the dangerous damps • which are known to exist in the prison, a represent W made to Government by the Committee a ppointed to inspect ation it all . The result is, that about 400 convicts are to be sent off to New outh Wales, to make room for the present tenants of the • Penitentiary, who are forthwith to be sent on board the Bulks. Four ships are now in readiness to transport the convicts ; one at Portsmouth, another at the Nore, a third at Sheeiness, and a fourth at Woolwich. It is expected that they will sail in about a week. We understand that this plan lies been in con templation these twelve months, as Government has been quite unsatisfied at :the state of the Penitentiary, the instabilitY of the foundation of which would of itself he an adequate cause for the removal, The GREAT DUKE of MARLBOROUGH The following Article has been extracted from a Newspaper published a few years after the Death of the Great . Duke of MARLBOROUGH. 'We know not what authority the Paper had for as cribing the lines to Mr. Annisox The CHARACTER of the late DUKE of MARLBOROUGH, as drawn by Monsieur VOLTAIRE. " That great man, (says he) who never laid siege to a town, which he did not take, nor fought a bAttle which he did not gain, was at St. James's a perfect courtier, the head of a party in Parliament, and in foreign countries the most able negocia_ tor of his time. 11i3 did France as much mischief by his un derstanding as his arms; andltagad, Secretary of the States- General, a man of very great merit, has been heard to say, that more than once when their High Mightinesses had resolved to come what the Duke of Marlborough was to lay before them, "the - Duke came, and though he spoke to them in French, in which language he expressed himself but ill, yet he brought them all into his sentiments. _ _ " In conjunction with Prince Eugene, the companion of his victories, and 'lamina, the grand pensione; of Holland, he supported all the weight of the enterprizes of the Allies against France. He knew that Charles XII., King of Sweden, was exasperated against the Empire and the Emperor; that he was secretly solicited by the French, and that if that conqueror should join himself to Lewis XIV. the Allies would be undone. " It is true. Charles had given his word in 1700 not to in termeddle in the war of Lewis XIV. with the Allies; but thi Duke of Marlborough did not believe that any Prince would be so great a slave to his sword as not to sacrifice it to his grandeur and interest. He therefore set out from the Hague with the design to sound the intentions of the King of Sweden. " As soon as he was arrived at Leipsick, where Charles then was, he applied himself secretly, not to Count Piper, the first Minister, but to Baron Goerts, who begun- to share the King's confidence with Piper. Ile told Goerts, that the design of the Allies was very shortly to propose to the King of Sweden to be a • second time mediator between them and France. He said this in hopes of discovering by Goert's answer the King's inten tions, and because he chose much rathersto have Charles for an arbitrator than an enemy. At last he had his public audience at Leipsic. • " Upon his first Address to the King, he told him in French that he should think himself happy if he could be taught under his command what he yet wanted to know in the art of war.— He then had a private audience of an hour long, in which the King spoke in German, and the Duke in French. The Duke, who was never in haste to make propositions, and had learned, by a long course of experience, the art of penetrating into the sentiments of mankind, and finding out the secret connexions between their inmost thoughts and their actions, gestaies, and ; discourse, fixed his eyes attentively upon the King. " When he spoke to him of war in general, he thought he perceived in his Majesty a natural aversion towards France, and observed that he was pleased when he talked of the con quests of the Allies. He.mentioned the Czar to him, and took notice that his eyes always kindled at his name, notwithstand ing the moderation of the conference ; and he further remarked that a map of Muscovy lay before him upon the table. He wanted no more to determine him in his judgment, that the real design of the King of Sweden, anti his sole ambition, were to dethrone the Czar, as he had already done , the King of Poland: Ile understooti that he had no other views by continuing in Saxony than to impose, by that means, certain hard laws upon the Einperor of Germany ; but he knew that the Emperor would comply with them, and' that thus - matters would be :easily made up. He left Charles XII. to his natural inclina tion, and being satisfied with having discoVered his intentions, he made` no kind of proposal. " As, few negotiations (continues Voltaire) 'are Concluded without money, and Ministers are sometimes seen to sell the hatred or favour of their masters, it was believed throughout all Europe that the Duke of Marlborough's success with the King of Sweden was obtained by a large.sum"of Money, opportunely given to'Count Piper, and the Count was reflected upon for it to his dying day. " For my own part (says our author), after having traced this report to its source, I have been informed that Piper re ceived a small present front the Emperor, by the hands of Count NVratislau, with the consent of the King, his master, and nothing from the Duke of Marlborough."" "This latter part of the extract is inserted only to make the following reflection upon it, viz. that it is a surprising instance of the Duke of Marlborough's address and personal influence, and great knowledge of mankind, if he could dive thus deeply , I into - the sentiments of the King of Sweden, in the manner Mr. Voltaire relates, without having first unlocked the hearts of those about him with a golden key.' ' To. the above character of 'that great hero, You may add, if yon please, the following beautiful address to the very same man, but in a quite different light, when in the decline of life,. and in a kind of reverie. • As the words were composed by the late inimitable Mr. Ad. dison, I no ways question but that the genendity of your read. ers will think themselVes obliged to you for the publication of so curious an amusement.' On Ms late Grace the Duke of MArtratoßoutM, stu Wall in Ms. t he declinedeclineoflift, and dozing in a melancholy pore on couch. Awful Hero, Marlborough rise ! Sleepy charms I come to break ; Hither turn thy languid eyes, Lo ! thy Genius calls, awake ! Well survey this faithibl plan, Which records thy life's great story ; 'Tis a short, but crowded, *an , Full of triumph, full of glory. One by one these deeds review, Sieges, battles, thick appear ; Former wonders, lost in new, Greatly crowd welt pompous year. This is Blenheim's crimson field, Wet with gore, with slaughter stain'd ; Here retiring squadrons yield, And a bloody wreath is gain'd. Think on these, while life may last, The greatest bliss to man allow'd, Is to trace his actions past, And to find them great and good. But thou'rt gone, 0 mortal born ! Swift thy transient scenes remove ; Let them pass with noble scorn, Thine are deeds which live above. Poets, prophets, heroes, kings, tby ripe approach foresee ; len, who acted wondrous things, Tho' none there are compar'd to thee. ` He had been so before at the Treaty o f Ryswick. wleti htn to t , 4 41 n e()%vre -4000 persons. li j ai de lVi t l i et th A t l i es :e A e r imnbiec--ICmt iATlTlptAcirlhsytblenirltulidi,e---necim,:glik3leliernostreeernntletc:wearitahwybailisrihr:.inlienisAthiloasttlfngirrieeesrr: her astonish.; health), to NM her tw at oow t e tohn D ote u el ge b h li s n tal tiT:l:seapiatl Salle esw . cia l ac n toon pa ttv : iinl s i t e n bh g e twvheerreoe: anticrowded ot. fl i S t 11:ge take i n : t c h " ; se enraptured t iters:nntiohofest:tieleitilo !

Mr. SCARLETT stated, that this action was brought by the plaintiff, a gentleman of the greatest respectability, residing at liessle, in the East Riding, against the defendant, who had published a most offensive libel against him, in the form of a hand bill, which had been industriously - circulated at ilessle; and in which he was described as Sir Robert Numskull, and one of the lots to be sold was said to contain all the profits he received from the office of churchwarden, by the sale of bricks, mortar, wood, tiles, &c., and also of the materials he took home. Another lot was said to contain the profits lie received when overseer of the highways, the purchaser of the lot having to make good all the accounts, and to exonerate Sir Robert Numskull from all the Charges which might be preferred against him. Mr. hipline= proved that he considered the plaintiff aft the person who was meant by Sir 'tuber Numskull ; and on his cross-examination much laughter was excited, by his de claring that he thought the name was applicable to him. BuouGii.tm abandoned the justification which had been pleaded, and attempted, to beat down the damages by turning the whole into ridicule. The Jury found% verdict for the plaintiff, damages 201.

SCARBOROUGH RIOTS. • Mr. Serjeant CROEIS stated the case for the prosecution.—A. very turbulent multitude bad assembled in the vicinity of Scar borough, and the defendants made themselves particularly con spicuous in kicking, beating, and committing every species of outrage on the unfortunate victim of the outrage. Mr. Dawson lives in Scarborough ; was on the 15th of Febru ary engaged with another to get a box and trunk belonging to William Meade, and to bring it to Scarborough, front Bur minston. When he got on the road, three men, John Watson being one of them, e assed him on horseback. Watson came up to the cart, and, abusing him, said, ". you will soon he dragged out of the cart." - Witness left his companion, Tindal, in the cart, and passed over the fields. He soon afterwards saw a great crowd of people coming on ; be ran, but an artillery-man of the name of Rayner seized him', and said witness was his prisoner. Witness asked for what was he made a prisoner?— Rayner then said, why did you run away ? A person of the name of Topham then came up ' they both collared him, and dragged him to the mob, nearly 200 yards. Ile was afterwards kicked over his legs, thighs, and body, by different persons iu the mob ; be was injured in different parts of his body, and his hat was cut in two places. Ile was carried in the custody of Rayner and Topham, the mob still abusing him, to Robinson's, near the door of the Town-hall. There were at least 300 per. sons in the mob. He was then carried before the Justices and discharged, and sent to his own house; he was confined to his bed three, and to the house eight days. Witness did not mean to say that he was carried before the Magistrate, but that one of the Justices sent for him. Mr. Stephenson, the Town Clerk, cried out, " Let the man go, and let him come forward ;" they then released him. [Watson was one of the witnesses examined on. the prosecu tion against Meade on the charge of murder.l Witness produced his hat, coat, and waistcoat Ohey were cut and torn, and from one extremity to the other were covered with filth. The witness shook them, and the contents powder ed the wigs of the Gentlemen of the Bar near the witness's box. In answer to Mr. Jnstice BAYLVY, the witness said that he did not know Raynor before, but knew Topham, Scott, Hutchin son, and Watson, the other defendants, by sight; at the time the town was in great ferment on account of Law being shot ; witness and Meade as ociated together for the last five years; they had been often at each other's houses; it was in Novetn ber that he was in London; he remained there for a month or five weeks; lie had more money given to him than was neces. tory for his expences; le was not told any thing about ,being examined as a witness ; the mob increased considerably as they proceeded to the Town-hall ;he could not say what ill-will they had against him, unless it was for bringing Meade's boxes. W. Tindal accompanied the last witness in the cart from Bur miston ; John Watson and two other persons overtook them on the road i • 11. Watson said it was a strange thing to shoot people on the high road ; does not recollect Watson saying any thing about what was to happen. Grace Dawson, the daughter of the witness (and who was examined on the trial of Meade), proved the injury her father had sustained. Elizabeth Bruff—Knew John Watson, and saw him on horse.. back on the day mentioned ; he came galloping, and anal they had got another rebel; he addressed the populace, anti they all ran to meet the rebel ; she saw them come back, and W. Day, son brought in held by the collar by two men ; Topham was one of them ; she did not know the other; Dawson appeared covered with dirt., Mr. War.us addressed the Jury for the defendants Watson, 'Rayner, and Scott. Mr. Justice BAYLEY suggested that there was no doubt a very violent ferment existing in the town at the time, arising from the occurrenc d e as to Law, and he should therefore recom mend three of thedefendants to submit to a verdict of guilty, depending on the mercy of the Crown. The Counsel for Watson, Rayner, and Scott acquiesced. Mr. Serjeant Citoss pledged himself to apply to his Ma jesty's•Attorney-Oeneral to discharge them. The Jury acquitted the defendant Hutchinson, against whom there was no proof, and delivered a verdict of guilty under the ag,reemeht, against Watson, Rayner, and Scott.

The second count alleged the mortal wound to have been inflicted with a piece of earthenware plate. This case excited considerable interest. The Court was crowded to excess. Mr. LAW (with whom was Mr. Ct.Aittnat) stated the case for the prosecution, Mr. ANDAEWS anti Mr. ADoLpitus, were for the prisoner. Richard Crispin deposed, that on the lith July, he lodged at the house of the deceased, in . Marygold-street. The prisoner also lodged there. Witness came borne about half-past six in the evening, and found that the deceased was In bed, in the back room, in which the prisoner and another man lodged. Witness called to her, and she answered from the bed. Ile looked into the room, and asked her if his tea was ready. She said no, but she would get It fin him. She got out of bed, and came into the tl-ont mom, and put the kettle on. After witness had his tea, he went out to walk. At that time the deceased appeared to be intoxicated. On his return from walking, he found the prisoner and the deceased in the room. lle was sitting at the table in the centre of the room, and she was sitting under the window. The prisoner said to her, he should like to have something for supper which he had not got. lie said he should like to have a slice of cheese, a two-penny loaf, and a pint of beer; and added, " will you fetch it, Mrs. Chamberlayne ?" She replied, that she would. Witness then went to bed. - lie had not been up stairs more than a minute when he heard somebody going out, whom witness believed to be the prisoner. After that he heard something fall on the floor in the room below. The person who went out soon afterwards returned, and he heard the prisoner say, Mrs. Chamberlayne, what do you lie there for ?' She said, " she would lie there if she liked." Be said, "you are not so drunk but you eanget up yourself." She said, "she would get up when she liked." Ileßaid,"l'll help you up, and get you into your bed." She replied, " let me alone—l'll go to my bed when I like." The prisoner then appeared to have retired to the, back room where he slept. The deceased slept in the front room. lie could not then dot tinetly hear what the prisoner said. In continuation of the conversation, witness heard the deceased say--" You are a cursed liar, and never mind that." This she repeated three or four tittles. Witness fell asleep, and heard no more till the next morning. In the morning about five o'clock, the pri sorter called to hits, and said, " young man, are you asleep ?" The prisoner must have passed through the room of the de ceased to get to the foot of the stairs from whence ' ie Called witness. Witness asked hint, what o'clock it was? lie re plied, that it was near five.. Ile said, " what a state this woman has been in all night." In the room of the deceased there was a chest of drawers, which the prisoner must' passed. It was quite light about this time, but the ahtitters of the deceased's room were Closed. The Prsoner said, " title has fallen and cut herself some where—she ' is all bloisl, and there is blood, on the floor;" witness said, " I know she was very drunk." Upon that, witness heard the prisoner go out ; lie remained'ont about a quarter of an hour, and just as ite get up the prisoner came again, and said to witness, " young man, are you getting up?" He replied, that he was dressing," The prisoner had not been in the habit of calling witom,b c . fore. As soon as witness got up he went 'down and found Abe prisoner standing at the toot. of the stairs,. dose to the 'doer the deceased's room. Witness Itaiked in, and saw ou the floor, between the doors of the front and back room t the blood was about two or three feet from the drawers: The. de ceased was sitting in a chair under a windoW in her own room ; her left elbow was resting on the table, and her head resting on her right arm. The greatest quantity of blood appeared to be between the two doors. The prisoner said, "we had better edl some persons, for it is not tit she should be left in this. state." At this time the deceased - did not appear to be dead. The greater part of the evidence was the same that we I;va already _given in our Union-hall reports, and the report of th e Coroner's Inquest. • Mr. Samuel Henry Sterry, surgeon, of Bermondsey, saw the body of the deceased between eleven and twelve o'clock on the 12th. He was called in by the pariah officers. When he stew .her she was sitting in the chair ; her arm was reclining on the one side of the chair and her head upon the min, a little lean ing forward. There was a wound of an inch in length, and in depth to the bone. The temporal artery was divided; it waa partly a lacerated wound ; it was not what he should exactly call an incised wound; the outer edge of the wound was not so irregillar as the internal parts; it must have been inflicted by something , between a blunt and a sharp instrument; the figure seemed in a composed state in the chair. in witness's opinion, the deceased Might have fainted from the loss of blood. recovered, and placed herself in the chair, and died in the posture in which she was found ; this was possible. Cross-examined.—ln his opinion the deceased could not have fallen upon the knife.; it was possible that if she had fitilen on the point of the knife the wound might have been inflicted. Invoking at the latch of the dour now produced, and hearing that the deceased had been drunk, he conceived it to be within the scope of vossibility that the wound might have been inflicted by her falling against it; falling on fender might leave pro duced the whJund ; the edge of the thumb part of the dtiOr latch ' was sufficiently sharp to have inflicted the wound' by falling against _ _ _ _ - 13 y the Jury.—Supposing the face of the deceased to have come in contact with thelatch, the handle which projected above the thumb part would probably have bmised the cheek. The prisoner being called upon for his defence, said, he would leave it to his counsel. The following witnesses were called Mary Ward deposed, that she was servant to Mr. Wade, the prisoner's master. On the 11th of July, the prisoner's mistress ,told him to kill two fowls, which he did, by putting them be• tween his knees his small-clothes were stained with the blood. There was also blood on his hands at the time. - In the even ing of the same day, as late as seven o'clock, the blood was not washed off his hands. Cross-examined—Thelowls .were killed by the prisoner be tween 11 and 12 in the forenoon. lle was close to water at the time, but did not wash his hands ; there might be more blemi on one hand than on the other; could not say whether the pri soner used a knife, but he seemed to haggle with the necks of both. Mrs. Tickey deposed, that she lived next door but one to the deceased. On the morning of the 12th, about a little after five, the prisoner called to her, and told her there was something the matter with Milt. CliambLylayne ; that he thought she had been up all night, and that there was blood on the floor. Wit ness was alarmed, and did not go. • Mrs. Griffiths deposed, that she spoke to the prisoneton the morning of the 12th, whilst he was m the room tritlt the dead • Witnessbody4 said it was an awfUl sight ; to which the pri soner assented, and said it was exceedingly unpleasant to b e . in a house where such athinwhappe»ed. Witness put her hand ttpon the shOulder of the deceased, and looked in. the face of the prisimer to see if he was agitated. was not in the least agitated. The prisoner said she had not been dead along time, because she was groaning when he went to call for sane assist- once. • Mr. James Wade, a shipwright, living in Charlgtte-row, ilermondseY, eiamlned-I"he prisoner was in'his employment from last Febrintry twelve months. After the Coroner's in quest, the prisoner was admitted 'to bail, and witness became his surety.. lie afterwards surrendered.' The prisoner bore an excellent character for quietness at d•good conduct. Several other witnesses gave the prisoner a very good charac ter for a pFaccable and inoll'ensitecrlisposition. Aft.

CORBETT'S roust Int OPINION OF TITO ES.-111 the year 180 e, Mr.Cobbett expressed the follow ing opinion respecting tithes, which, it must be confessed, is somewhat at variance with hirs pre sent opinion upon the same subject : " The Clergy," says he, " are not paid by the people any more than the landholders are; the tithes are as much their proPerty as the rent is the property of the landlord; the title of the former can no more be destroyed than the title of the latter; and why the Clergyman should receive as pay what the land lord demands as his own, we cannot perceive, A man who should attempt to defraud his landlord, would be deemed, and justly deemed, a cheat; yet, we see no loss of character attached to him who is in the constant habit of defrauding his Hector • • or Vicar. The tithes ,do not belong to the husbandman, they never can he called his, The Clergyman claims them as his right, unfettered with any conditions whatever, other than those which he enters into whit God and the King. It has been fashion, of late years, to talk of abolishing tithes those who, have lands would do well to consider how they would relish the abolishing of rents, for they may rest assured that the 'Mitt will never, be far behind the former.
