and moral precision, and with all the para phernalia .which must be employed if the ultimate'decision is to proceed from a July of twelve persons, whom each of the parties en gaged in litigation is to be allowed every means and opportunity of endeavouring to bias in his favour by an ex-parle representation of his own case. The latter mode of administering justice certainly possesses great and paramount advan- tapes; and whenever parties have the means of encountering the unavoidable delays, anxieties, and expences by which it is necessarily at tended, there can be no doubt that they will for the most part resort to it for the ad justment of their conflicting claims and preten sions. But the practical inconveniences of this mode of administering justice have, under the. ac tual circumstances of the greater part of the com- munity, as respects their limited command both of time and of pecuniary means, been found so ex cessively oppressive es almost to operate to tbeir exclusion from the . superior tribunals o the country ; •and no subje - et haS occupied more attention, or has been ,thought more deserv ing of research, than an inquiry into every practicable means of simplifying the forms, quickening the pace, and curtailing the expellees of law proceedings. And it is for this very purpose of rendering the attainment of justice simple, expeditious, and cheap, that Magistrates are invested with authority, and that the ex tension of that authority should take place in every safe and practicable direction, and over the greatest possible proportion of ju- dicial administration that experience may prove can be safely entrusted to them. It is true that a judicial administration of this kind has its peculiar disadvantages, of which the com mitments in question are examples. But, it is at the same time true, that the administration of justice by the intervention of a jury has its pe culiar disadvantages also. The question is, how and in whet - particular branches of judicial administration to employ both modes,so as to de rive from each the greatest possible amount of advantage with the least possible liability to the peculiar disadvantages of either. The whole practice both of the Law Courts and of the Magisterial tribunals may be considered as great and experimental operationv, constantly carrying on for the solution of this interesting and im- portant problem. Even when apparently form debie disadvantages present themselves in the execution of the mode of administration by summary process, we must carefully ascertain whether they have proceeded from a vicious and perctienent inadaptation of the mode itself to the end proposed, or from the inexperience, the error, the ignorance, or the corruption of the Magistrates, any or all of which may be regarded as . temporary and incidental, and as being susceptible of correction in the pro gress of the experiment, and by the deve lopment of more accurate and just views, or if necessary the formation of adequate coun teractions. Of this latter description seem to be the • disadvantages which have hitherto proceeded in some cases from the administra tive execution of the New Vagrant Act. — Some of the persons injudiciously committed have been liberated by the authority of the Se cretary of State for the Home Department. In the cases of others the convictions have been quashed by the Quarter Sessions. The Magis trates, therefore, now better instructed as to the intention of the Legislature, and as to the spirit and temper in which this particular act ought to be executed, can scarcely ever- again mistake the course on which they ought to pro ceed. The evil hitherto complained of seems to be already cured; and instead of petitioning Par liament, as has been proposed, for the repeal of the Act, or recommending to Government the dilitTlitiat of any particular Magistrate who may have incurred popular odium by his conduct in administering it, we ought to wait patiently for the further developemeat of the effects of the law, and to be satisfied that the Magistrate, if this is the only serious charge against him, has been rendered more fit for the future discharge of his duties, more valu able in every respect, by those circumstances which' it is proposed to turn to his disadvantage. WINDSOR, OCT. A O.---The weather being fine this morning, the KING, with his usual suite, took an airing towards the Lodge in his phaeton, dwn by small ponies. Yesterday evening his Majesty had a small party at the Castle, among w horn were, her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta, Earl and Countess Harrington, Earl and Countess Harcourt, &c. The Band of the Royal Horse Guards attended, and played sacred MUSIC during yesterday. The Duke of SAXE-WEIMAR inspected the Military Asylum at Chelsea yesterday. His Serene Highneas the Duke of BRUNSWICK.. LUNEBURG will make his solemn entry into 'Brunswick with great splendour in the course of - the present week. THE THEATRES. 1 Thluni - -Laxe.—The part of Virginias, in the I Tragedy of that name, was represented last night a second time by Mr. MACREADV. The part was, it is understood, written purposely to draw forth the talents of that actor, and the author, Mr. SHERIDAN KNowLES, has fully accomplished his object. In the earlier scenes Mr. MACREADY spoke in a level tone, .s if to give the character an air of domestic ease, which rendered him hardly audible, and he must have been wholly so at the more distant parts of the Theatre, but when roused into ac tive emotion his performance was marked by truth of feeling, and was admirably impressive. After the discovery of the attempt to deprive him of his daughter, his acting fully deserved the ap- plause which attended him, and while he thus acts from his own feelings, and avoids all imitation, he need not fear a rival. Icilius, by Mr. WALLACK, was another admirable feature in the piece, and was also most deservedly applauded. The part of DC11(11'111 was brought forward by Mr. TERRY with true Roman bluntness. Mr. ARCHER made as much as the despicable character of Appius admitted, and as the feelings of the audience were so decidedly hostile to the Decernvir, it was not to be supposed that he could gain much ap plause. Mrs. W. WEsT gave a very interesting and , affecting support to Virginia, and the Play made a very powerful appeal to the feelings of a very numerous audience. A Tragedy on this sub ject, entitled Virginiai writteu by the Rev. Mr. Cane, was brought forward about the year 1754, respecting which Mr.MuRPUY relates the follow ing anecdote, which may well be mention ed on this occasion :—‘‘ The beautiful Countess of COVENTRY, mother of the present Earl, a lady as much distinguished by the tenignity of her dis position as by her unrivalled personal attractions, called on Mr. GARRICK, and desired to speak with him on particislar business. He went to the aide of her carriage. ' 6. There, Mr. GARRICK," said the Lady, , " I put into your hands a play which the best Judges tell me will do honour to you and to the author." "It was not necessary for her to say more" said Mr. MURPW.Y, " thoie eyes that tell us what the sun is made of " had all the power of persuasion and even of command ; GARRICK obeyed, as if she had been a tenth Muse, and prepared the play with the utmost dis patch." Mr. MURPHY proceeded to relate, that when Mr. GattatcK, in the part of Virginias, ad dressed merely the words " .Thou 'Millar" to the wretch who claimed his daughter, the au dience seemed to be electrified by the force and feeling of his expression. Those who have the faintest recollection of Mr. GARRICK will not be surprised at such an effect, and all must feel additional regret that he could not bequeath his unrivalled genius to mankind.-.- The farce last night was The Adopted Child, in which Mr. WALLACE, who had so ably repre sented a tragic part in .the play, displayed the versatility of his talents by a striking portrait of the rough but generous seaman, in the part of Michael. A lad named EDMONDS was the Adopted Child, and he displayed such musical powers as procured en encore as' well as much applause. ' COVENT-Cr attractiot , lere last night was Mr. YouNces Hamlet. His merits in that difficult part are too well known to require any comment, and the reputation which he has acquired is creditable to the geittral taste. MR. CONWAY THE ACTOR.--This gentleman, who acquired a well-merited reputation in Lon don, Dublin, and in several of our Provincial Theatres, is engaged to perform in America, for which country he departs In a few days. Mr. CoNwAY'S figure is the best that has been seen en the London boards since the time of BARRY. He is a modest unaffected character and possesses con siderable talents as an actor. M rs. St DnoNs, during the timeof her late estimable brother,spoke highly of Mr. CONWAY'S performance of Juliet., and in heroic character his person and talents qualify him to be a distinguished ornament of the stage. We hope that he will be successful in America, where, to the honouf the taokte and liberality of the people, theatrical abilities have always found a general protection. Mr. BRAIIAM and Miss STSPIttNS are engaged for this week at Birmingham Theatre. Air. HAMILTON, the British Vice-Consul at Boulogne-sur-Mer, arrived on Sunday night at the Foreign Office, with dispatches for Mr. Se cretary CANNING, from his Excellency Sir CHARLES STUART, our A m bassador at Paris. Letters of the 6th instant were received yes terday from Madrid, being the regular course of post. From other parts of Spain the letters were also transmitted in the same punctual manner as before the breaking out of the war. We find, however, little worthy of notice in them, and s c a rcely a hint on politics. Those from the south describe the French as extremely unpo pular ; but that the chief cause is the irregularity of their payments. Contrary to the notion en tertained here, that they had been most liberal in their dealings with the inhabitants, they had in curred large debts wherever they could obtain credit. It is remarkable that none of the letters from Madrid mention or allude to the proclama tion of FERDINAND issued at Port St. Mary's. Letters dated leaturdey, and received yester day from Paris, by express, metAtt that the greatest dissatisfaction exists among the French Ministry at the conduct of FEILDIN %ND since his release. They charge him, it is said, with in gratitude, for his utter disregard of their advice, as evinced in every public measure he has adopted. It has been resolved, therefore, to with draw imtnediately nearly all the French troops from Spain ; in consequence of which resolntion by, the monthly payments made to the Regency France, and which amounted to more than 1,500,000 francs, are to he discontinued, while all remittances to the army are to cense, there being, it is supposed, money eno ugh in the mili tary chest of each division to carry them back to F ran ce. We know not how :ar these facts are to be depended on ; indeed they are not very probable, but we derive them from good au. s thority.T Times.) FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

IliticatTow, OCT. 10.—There is nothing new to communi cate as appertains to the Palace, excepting that several parties of (le:antes were permitted interior inspections of its magnifi cent apartments on Thursday and Friday. The Baron and Baroness de Hockpied, from Adur-lodge, were of the number on the former day. Sir John and Lady Copley arrived at the Royal York Hotel yesterday evening. The dampness of the afternoon has been unfavourable to the promenades ; the usual military band, in consequence, did not mike its appearance. MARGATE, OCT. 20.—At length our meridian is past, and the sun of our season is setting—yet 'with autumnal splendour; our circles, though not so enlarged, are more select, and we meet more ea famille; the company too that remains with us is by far of the better sort. Our public places of amusement are all closed ; the Assembly, Promenade, .Ratialagh, and lastly the Theatre, closed its season on Saturday last, and the Proprietor, Mr. Faucet Savile, in his farewell Address, ac knowledges to have reaped the harvest, though of a short, yet of a better season than heretofore. He is certainly re deeming fast the dramatic performances of this place from the oblivion In which he foetid them, and raising them on a level with the first of provincial establishments. Our fascinating little actress, Mrs. Savile, increases yearly on the public here, and is deservedly respected both,in private and public life ; it is rumoured that it will nut be long ere we see her on the London boards. The whole corps draniatique has been of that class which soars far beyond mediocrity. Indeed, I think the town and its amusements altogether increase so fast in attraction, that half London may have been said to have emptied itself here during the season ; the influx and reflux of the thousands that visit it would not be credited were it de tailed. The visitants and that of the best order are still com paratively numerous, and many houses engaged are for the subsequent season. NY.WPORT, OCT. 10.---The Ann u l Ball given by the Members of the Hunting Club was held on the Walt inst., at the Town Hall, in Newport, and the invitations, which had been issued on the most extended and liberal scale, were almost universally accepted throughout the island, so nu merous and respectable was the company e.esemblcd.—At eight o'clock the Lady Patroness, Miss Shedden, daughter of George Shedden, Esq., of Spring Hill, was , led into - Atte room by Charles Lambert, Esq., the Comptroller for the evening; and the visitors (nearly 400 in number) having been severally pre. rented and made their obeisances, country dances were corn. menced, according to ancient custom, end were followed by quadrilles and waltzes, which .were kept until a late hour the next mornin The arrangements were tastefully made, and the refre shments of the best description ; and the pleasing affability of the Lady Patroness, united to the polite attention of the Comptroller and the Members of the Club, afforded the utmost satisfaction. The Club Ball is now upwards of 100 years standing; and should it be kept up with as much spirit sad liberality in future years as on the present occasion, its fame will probably be recorded during another century. His Once the Duke of Athol, family, and suite, sailed from Greenock for the Isle of Man, on Tuesday last, in the Majestic steam packet, Capt. Oman.

This superb cast ' of one of the grandest works of anc ient art, preserves all the vigour, the noble proportions, and elevated character of its great original ; the accuracy of the contour, and the car. rectness of the anatomical detail, are not more remarkable than the animated fidelity of the action and expression. Nothing can exceed the beauty and force of the execution, which affords a specimen of modelling that, for firniness, variety, anti deci.- lion, can never be surpassed, as it is distinguished both for closeness of finish and baldness and freedom of general effec d t. The material in which this fine group is executed has the a vantage of allowing it to become an embellishment of either a gallery or a lawn, as it is capable of resisting the effects of wea ther and climate. If any thing could enhance its valne, it is that there is no other bronze cast of the Luocoon of similar dimensions in existence. On the same day will be sold the Statue of the late Mr. Beckford, which now ornaments a niche in the hall in the great w;:stern entrance of the Abbey, This Statue was sculptured in marble by Moore, the artist, who executed the statue of the same distinguished cha racter in Guildhall. The likeness it very striking, the action easy and appropriate, and the whole character and expression full of spirit, intelligence, and dignity.

The Brighton Subscription Pack of Harriers, in their three days of action last .week, were desirably succusful in pro ducing good diversion. About 70 horsemen were with them on Monday, 190 on Wednesday, and 00 on Friday. On the two former days, a leash of hares was the spoil.of each, and a brace on the latter.. One hare, on the first day,. held . them in a run of ten miles, without check, ere she fell a victim to her well-traided pursuers. On the Ist of November, ColonelWridham will again ap , pear in the neighbourhood of Brighton, and continue in it for about a month or six weeks, with lila ['winch pack of Fox Dogs, the fleetest and best conditioned for hunting over the Downs, we doubt not, in the kingdom. Our resident sports men are in high spirits, and anticipate some brilliant exploits. By letters received yesterday from Maranham,' dated the %Oth of August, it appears Lord COCIIRANE arrived at that port on the 26th of July, from his pursuit of the Portuguese squadron, and that on the '2Bth the Imperial flag was hoisted, and a complete change iu the Govern ment effected. Lord COCURANI: seized in the harbour of Maranham 16 Portuguese vessels, and also detained several English vessels which were suspected "of having Portuguese property on hoard. Some arrangement was likely to be en tered into with the owners of the property. After the subversion of the Portuguese authorities in Maranham, a vessel was dispatched to Para, where a convocation took place of the authorities, and on the 11th the Emperor was proclaimed with the usual solemnities. Para and Maranham were the last provinces that adhered to Portugal, and the whole of Brazil therefore has now renounced the mother country. EARTHQUAEIL-7—(ANCONA, SEPT. 21.)—We have received news ,from Ragusa of various un fortunate occurrences. In August the heat was 31 deg. Reaumur, which produced contagious diseases, that carried off a great number of peo. pie. The drought was very distressing. On the l'Oth the air became suddenly dark ; a fiery meteor passed over the city, fell into the sea, and was succeeded by ,an earthquake, which over threw many houses, and several. persons were killed. The sea retired nearly a mile from the coast. The first shock was felt in Turkish Bos 7 nia ; it caused an immense piece of rock to fall, which rolling into the sea, struck a vessel laden With flour, anti buried it with its whole' crew is the waves. It is reported that a volcano has broken out in the province. At Ragusa, a fort built by the French, and a great number of houses are thrown down. A Dean Of CANTERBURY, remarkable for hold ing a great number of church preferments, travelling slowly in hit chariot to that city, was overtak en b y a poor -parso, who had somehow procured the loan of a good horse. The parson, en passant, bowed most respectfully to the Dean, who desired him to , stop, begged he would call at the Mer maid, at Rochester, and order him a dinner, to be ready at a certain hour. The parson accordingly called on the host, told him he would be honoured with a visit at such a time, and must provide a good dinner. " Fur how many, an please your honour ?" says Boniface. " Why," replies the parson, " 1 can't well say how many persons the whole company will consist of, for I only paw the Dean of Canterbury, the Canon of Winchester, the Provost of Litchheld, the Rector of Orping ton, the Vicar of Romney, and one of the King's Chaplains." The parson then proceeded to his own home, wldch was within a few miles ; and the landlord began to make ample provi hion fur the numerous guests he expected to entertain. Ac cordingly, when the Dean arrived, a large table was set out, and the cloth laid ; " flow's this,' cried his Reve rence, " you have shown me the wrong room ; this surely is intended for a large company."—" An please your honour,' replied the landlord, " Parson Singlechurch called about an hour and a half ago, and told me 1 must provide for your Honour, and the Canon of Winchester, and the Rector of ()vv. ington, and one.of the King's Chaplains too, and I don't know how many more; and so I thought, an please your honour, I'd get enough."--" Oh, very well," coolly answered the Dean, who now recollected himself, " I ought to have asked Singlechurch to have stayed and dined with . uie."---( The Bubbler. ) FEMALE VENGEANEE.—This morning about ten o'clock a Lady arrived in the Temple in her own carriage. She went iinmediately to the Chambers Oa Gentleman named Gausses,tirew a pistol from her pocket and instantly discharged the contents at him. He had just time to raise his hand,and saved his head, at which the pistol was directed, and fortunately received only a slight wound in the former. The lady was pro vided with another pistol, which she was pre paring to use in the same manner, but the re p ort of the first drew persons to the silt, who suc ceeded in wrenching the weapon from her hand. She was then taken to the Porter's Lodge, anti the gentleman being asked what was to be done with her, declined all resort to the Law, and then left the chambers upon his ordinary business. Many reports were itnmediutely in circulation ou this extraordinary attempt at assassination, but the most prevalent is that she is a married woman, that she had been some time under the protection of Mr. G. who had allowed her a very expensive establishment, but appearing to be inclined to withdraw his attention, and the usual resources, she took this desperate method of gratifying her revenge. It appears that whenever a bill of parcels is milled an invoice, in a letter accompanying it, it I* thible to double postage; but that when it is called bill of parcels, it is only liable to single postage.

RIDDLES MIDDLESEX SESSIONS-aim DA.,) Coirsrmtor AND FItADD.--.-4 Roland was put to the bar on an indictment charging him with having conspired, with a person named Hanson, to defraud Col. Whately, and with having di frauded hint of thirty guineas. The factoof,tfle case were, that in consequence of an advertise ment the Colonel went to the stablemyttad of Roland, where he looked at several horses, and at length fixed osi one. Roland being - asked the horse was sound, he said he believed it *at. Hanson conducted the rest of the transaction s /tad received the money. The horse, however, was, after a very short ride, found to be unsound, and in consequence was returned to Roland in the name of Hanson. The defence set up was, that Roland had no real or bona fide connictiou with Hanson, who had made him the dupe of his own villany, and then had absconded. It also appeared that Roland had been applied to by Hanson to let his horse stand at 116 stable until. he advertised it. When Col.

On Monday evening a baker was brought to that Hospital, who, in the course of the day had %offered some fits. which a physician of Paris had not charecterhied. On Twit - day morning M.
