GENTEgf. cIitATINU.—A whimsical writer thus observes—" Thou bast seen the old women ht the curd table; she is known to us all! Observe the intense anxiety of her countenance, her hue. ried manner, her eager watclifulm NI, her two by honours' every deal! What is it that prevents her sweeping every sixpence on the board into her own lap? Precisely the same fear of cons°, quences which prevents the notorious pickpocket from forcing his hand into your pocket : the same mean, despicable feeling influences both. The common caution of ' hold up your cards !• soundi exactly similar,in my ears, to' take care of your watches, Gentlemen !' It might, perhaps, be : sup, posed that this sordid feeling is confined to the old and avaricious., A,las! I ,sincerely wish It was so. But it is too,evident that it pervadeathe mintrof the .young and beautiful. At the round game, ' petty larcency' is committed with the most unblushing effrontery ; and' slight of hand' is practised with a dexterity truly admirable. The ingenuity is tortured to invent little petty tricks and artifices to cheat with success. Observe that beautiful girlfingering that shilling which be longs to her fair companion, who is busily engaged in extracting the ace of trumps from the pack ! See the sweet Madonna countenance of another, distorted with rage and disappointment a t hold. ing the ' losing card!' I have seen a beauty look absolutely disgusting by the bravo-like manner i n w hi c h she bats turned up' ACM' I was once cured of an ardent passion for a very pretty girl, by seeing her attempt to transfer a card from my hand to her own ; the feeling was so mean, so low and grovelling ! It was level antithesis.' The pretty rogueb if they will steal, why coin. mit such petty sordid thefts ? why not aim at stealing our hearts ? In ,that case, , th e y w ill kindly recollect that exchange is no robbery.' There it a variety of modes of C killing time,' much more edifying than cards; but if they must play, let them play for love Por some such stakes." While it was Yet gray dawn, warms' of people had collected aboet all the avenues of the Court. A t half-past seven o'clock the floors were opened, and the greatest part of all the space in the Court was filled immediately. It is needless to de _ s,ribe the kpression of eager curiosity which took and kept possession of all faces. The boxes of the Magistrates, and .:,}toss set' amp, for the' accommodation of the gentry of the county, , • (among the latter cla s s t s itere ought lick about ladies,) were tilled 'last. • At eight o'clock. the , ,trumpet announced.. the. approach of toe , and within a minute or two Mr. Justice Park took his seat. Before the prisoners were called in, he gave directions that no one should be allowed to stand up in the galleries during the trials. As many as could sit were at liberty so to do ; but the effect of standing up, as was found yesterday, would be to stop the circulation of the air, and therefore, after this noticeotny one so offending should be instantly ordered out. His Lordship also directed, that the prisoners should not be called until the Court was per fectly quiet. The clanking of chains was immediately heard, and the stillest silence prevailed, all eyes being turned towards the dock. The prisoners ap peared and took their stations--Hunt first, on the left hand of the Judge ; Probert followed and stood next to him, and Thurtell took the place next to Probert, The appearance of all three, as to exterior, was respectable. Hum and Probert were in decent black, rather worn Thurtell iu a blue coat, with fawn-coloured trowsers, and a waistcoat nearly corresponding-- the whole in a style rather elegant than otherwise. The general appearance ofllunt was unpromis rag--a face of little expression, with nearly a straight profile —statute of middling height, with slender proportions. Probert is plump in the cheeks and corpulent, clear but inexpressive eyes, surrounded by features the character of which might be deemed sensual ; the hair, which sems to have been black, thin, grey, and curling. The appearance of • Thurtell was the most gen teel : his frame seems to be well knitted ; his countenance bold- 7 --hia hair ,of a, good auburn hue, and combed backwardsprojecting brows, and a. recoding forbhew4asith - an air of martial ' firmness, rather agreeable to the beholder. The Worst part of his face is his mouth, which has a very obstinate and rather stupid expression. The Clerk of the Court was preparing to read the indictments, Mr. ANDREWS rose to address, the Court upon some preli minary objection, the nature of which did not transpire in that part which was assigned to our purposes- Mr. Justice PARK interrupted him by saying, " ) know nothing of objection s n or of Jurymen, until after issu e joined and I know nothing either of objections, or of the nature of the issue, until the prisoners shall have pleaded." Mr. KNAPP, clerk of the arraigns..—John Thurtell, hold up your hand. The indictment Charges you, John Thurtell, th at you, not having the f ear of God Were your eyes, but being in. litigated by the devil, did on the 17th of October last, in the parish of Aldenham, with a certain ppistpl, value 10s. in your right hand, then and there held do the left side of the head 'of Wm. Weare, of the county of Middlesex, gentleman, wilfully strike and thrust, and make one mond fracture, of which the said Wm. Weare then and there died. (Mr. Knapp teed the other counts relating to Thurtell.) , And the indictment further charges that you, Joseph Hunt, in' the parish of St. George, Hanover-square, in the county of Middlesex, :before the said murder, did stir up, mov e , ab e t, an d cou n se l, hire, anti procure the said John Thurtell to commit the said murder. Haw any you, John Thurtell, are you guilty or not guilty ? Thurtell.—Notyttilty. Mr. KNAPP.—HOW will you be tried ? • Thurtell.—By God and my country. Mr. KNAPP.—Joseph Hunt, how say you, are you guilty or not :guilty ? Bunt.—Not guilty, my Lord. Mr. KNAPP,—HOW will you be tried? Hunt.--$y my God and my country. Mr. Kw arr.—You John Thurtell, you Joseph Hunt, and you William Probert, are charged under the Coroner's inqui,. lotion, that you; John Thurtell, did murder William Weare, and you, Joseph Hunt and Will Probert, as accessories he. fore the fact. How say you, John Thurtell, are you guilty or not guilty on the inquisition not_ guilty. Mr. KNAPP.—Haw say you, Joseph Hunt ? Hunt.—Not guilty. . Mr. KNAPP,-,-IroW say you Willi am Yrmien; are yoU gUilty or not guilty P Probert.—Not guilty, my Lord. Clerk—How wtil you be tried? Probert.—By God anti my country,i, Mr. ANDREWS, in behalf of the prisoner Thurtell, tetiti he had to apply to the Court that certain affidavits, them prepar ed, might be sworn. Mr. Jay, Mr. Fenton, and another gentleman, then came forward with a bulky paper, and being asked by the Clerk of the Arraigns the usual questions as to their si gna t ures , swore to the contents of t h e o f iii Mr. Ham sign handedan affidavit to the officer of the Court, which was sworn to by Hunt. The affidavit of the solicitors, pUblished in our Paper of yes, terday, was then put in. The crier of the Court read it over to himself,. marking it on the several pages, agreeably to a new regulation of t h e C ourt , b y w hi c h the officer is to be prepared With a precise knowledge of such instruments so as to be en abled to identify them when they may be called in question. This ceremony being over the deponents were sworn to it. The Clerk of the Court then proceeded to read it, and having read RS fitr as that part of it which refers to the circulation of vie Pintes, and corresponding infruence of such publication upon the public mind. Mr. Justice Palm directed him to stop. He knew nothing of the matter in these alleged publications. However the fad might be, he could say conscientiously, that there was one per. son in Court who lied not read one word of the alleged descrip. dons or animadversionie Some among the Jury might also remain iArterant of them. Such calumeies, if calumnies they were, rught have been circulated. even to the extent suited in the affidavit. Put su pp os ing the fact to be so , and that the Court, coneurrlng in these representations to consent to the postponement of the tried wouhi not have the effect of injuring the very d ve ign ze i s n e tan cor d t t l o ie u s r n g p e p t o b r e t of .i Vett:lit btheyeotinfliddwasiiinttwhaesifltasidnntett!lw? ase.eanui4deili leis L e arned at e i rt*nteeindts4z;,n6atinilredeagiyi,un.Beore. professional i t t l in ii : s ti on 4 p ec O a bli ra e c rVit y or ti O A I to n th d e „ r w X to say, whether they would IrCnigt aieldvaileeekOdret7enCod: A 14 TillEWs, AVhile the remainder of the affidavit was e pro n respect for the reading, there would tune fur ex tb them r to op co d n e ou t lt. self and L star : ed n ' F b r a l e d n a tn a hail repe h t i te i d m iy vd d 4 e h li i rre l ra ti t l et ilt lu h p i o n n ‘ " the step ne w (44,4 and ut ter giving the gravest consideration to the subject, their Gould give no other answer to his laird, ship's kind euggestiou, but respectfully to reitutre that the atil: davits should he read.

The Clerk resimiLel the reading of the affidavit, and having came to that part of it went to spectre' the play.biiit of the Surrey Theatre, some of the bills were produced. :11r. Juetice Pattiz asked if the bills' were exhibited at the tine of Swearing to the depositions. The answer was in the negative, but that the deponents had them in hand at the time of, wearing., .Mr. Justice Peas said that that was not sufficient :fur the purpose.

Here it Was plain that those purposes had been assailed, the righteous intent of the law defeated, and the interests of public jestiee grossly endangered by representations calculated to lead to the most unjust eensequences. And this, too, in a country where it was the boast anti glory of the people that the administration of justice was more pure and impartial in all its offices and functions then in any other on the face of the earth. That this wag's° in the execution or all the duties connected with those offices, lie knew ; and he had also the pleasure or knowing. diet one great example was now in hie view, 'of high judicial officers who would listen to nothing, who refused to have any understanding for any matters con nected with the trial of criminals, excepting such as came in judicial form bet4re the tribunals. Still, though it was not possible for the enlightened mind of his Lordship, tried and established as it wits in right views anti habits of searching anti judging, to be affected by such practices as these recited in the affidavit, it was not impossible that the minds of common men should have been affected by them. His Lordship's good sense and excellent descernnient were safe; but it must be well known that with commoner men, engaged in less consequential pursuits, upon an extraordinary cas e lik e the present, when all were greed yof whatever 'information they could obtain, and every one foinied sonic opinion upon the information received, from whatever sources derived, that first impressions once taken, .it was next to impossible to root them out. Ile said this in the outset, to Meet the remark made by the Court, anti to show, that however his Lordship's comprehensive knowledge might secure him from that danger, the same inference could' not be drown with respect to men or inferior note, of lower education, and less judgment, and much mare strongly did his arguinent beer upon the publi c a t l arge . He reminded the Court of what had occurred yesterday, when he had occasion to represent that since the 24th of October, the day on which the terrible circumstance occurred which gave rise to the present trials, not once or twice, but day after day, ti ioge pad been published, which, by the request of 1 the Magistrates, ought not to have gon e forth-.-those Magis trates continually, but vainly, entreating and requiring ()revery man seen with a pen in his hattd, either not to publish wliat wee witnessed, or at least to publish every thing fairly. The press lied been teeming, not merely with publications of facts and circumstances, such as the law Was supposed to c o un t enance (though for hie-pert lie very much doubted whether the law did warrant the privilege planned and exercised), but those filets and Circurnetances accompanied with comments, rellections,and criticisms; all going to fill up the outline of that skeleton, if he might se speak, of original matter of evidence, end so in the slats tneeeejodge. the grerit Ticstion which.*.hunianitysof the law had reserved for the higheet tribunals.-namely, is the prisoner guilty or not guilty ? It was a maxim in this country that not only must justice be easily obtained, het justice must also be Speedily obtained ; and as a proof how strongly that principle inhered in British jurisprudence, they were now sit ting under a new regulation which the Legislature lucd derieed in order to the More speedy attainment of justice. It had 41. lien to him, notwithsunding, in this country more eminently favoured than all others with the means of speedily effecting the just purposes of law, and ahile acknowletling that supe riority and glorying in it, that according to the ordinary con struction:of men7s minds .-, , according to tire constitution of our common nature—those who would have to try the cause could not come to it. were it now to take place, with unbiassed and unprejudi c ed m i n d s . Il e h a d before atlinitted, that so fur from the enlightened mind of the presiding Judge being within this danger, his Lordship would have as great difficulty in rooting out the sound principles which usually guided him. The difficulty with others was in rooting out the tint impression, though it was of injurious tendency. This was so well ascertained, that in a recent instance, one Judge, of veryfireat excellence in hi s ran k, lied, on account of general and injurions preposseseion, granted the delay required on dint very account. Had he not then good grounds for the ap plication now submitted ? Having shown that of 10,000 copies of it work moat ingeniously contrived and got up, 6,000 had been circulated in Hertford county ; that the books had been brought home to the very doors of those men who belonged to the classes from which the Jury in all likelihoed would be, taken ; and that the c o n t en t s were ca l cu l ate d to t i ll the ininds of all those, classes with disgust and preposstatsiens against the prisoners at the, bar. Wes human nature not the same in dif ferent parts of the same county, —was it altered, and if so, how, wherc, and a t wh a t t i me h a d t h e Change been worked ? I . , had the public mind been disentliralled,froni that power which the press so dangerously held over it ? Was it not in the memory Or till present, that a case occurred in which delay had beets allowed on account of prepossession and prejudice? Was not that deemed a sufficient reason for granting delay ?. Had he not furnished the Court with grounds as strong as any which had been laid before the Coutt on that occasion, for granting delay ? Mr. Justice PAVIC—TiII when do you ask it ? ' Mr. Annex:we would come to that point directly. He re. glared that the trial of this indictment should be put off till the next Assizes; or, it' that coulttnot be granted, for such time as his hardship, in his excellent judgment, should deem sufficient to remove those prejudiceswhich, as lie had shown, made it impossible at present to obtain an impartial trial, It was for hie Lordship, and not for him, to determine what length of tune would be necessary for the attainment of that object, He implored particultir attention to the situatiou elf the tinfortu_ nate men- e 4hut out from any communication with their legal advisees flsom the time of their comMitment until the 20th day of November, and the press teeming with publications in their prejudice the whole time. He knew nodung, nor did he pre. some to scan the motives of the magistrates in making that order. As they were honourable men, he had a right to imp • pose that their reasons were good; and, at any rate, he was convinced that they acted conscientiously, in not suffering legal advisers to confer wi t h t h e prisoners. He himself could not understand what reasons theee could be for preventing any man, imprisoned for any charge, from enjoying the most un restrained, communication with his advisers and friends. Hitt it was of more importance to observe what had been the opi nion of the Judges opon the subject when it came to their knowledge. Immediately on hearing of it, they sent down their mandamus, cortiniandirx the restoration of the suspended rights of the ,pritionere, being persuad e d, i n t h e i r superior judgments, that the suspension of those rights WAS dangerous to the interests of justice, and in the higheet detpte prejudi cial to the metals which the prisoners ought to have to pre. pare tbr their defence. Not only bed they suffered from premature and purtial publications in pamphlets end news papers, and this suepenston of their joist and legal rights ; but play-nillg and infamous placards were seen upon the walls of London, blazoned with the most glaring and attractive atone tees, calculated to excite curiosity in the rodent, and then to fill them with horror and disgust towards the very men now put on their trial. And this was tnost particularly effected in the town and neighbourhood of Hertford--close to the hall of justice,. where the attempts to pollute tier sancta try Were most of ell acttve, l i repoisseseions were bespoke in the very lere cincts from which the Jiiry toast be taken, in A manner which put it out of their power to come to t h e tr i a l w i t h pure and un blassetlininds. Mr. Justice - P4t 11,X assured the Counsel th a t b e h a d d one all in powerhis, to prevent rho efrects of any such prejudice, by can,ing the Jury to be selected front the 111011 t distant parts of the - county. Mr. A.stniticws was convinced that every thing in hia LW ahip's power to do hut been don e , so that these trials tniet be realty imparthi ; ,bat he would, wi t h th e f u ll est respect or hia Lordship's endeavouts, venture to ask, with what of • Could his Lordship Judea of that which it would hi...lmpossible to find out with el:n(lmm ? -Could he ascertain to the satiefee. don of his own mind to what extent the prejudices had reached? Could he be sure, in a case of this extraordinary nature; coh cerning which all pereorts were hungry sifter information; that the statements which had been furnished had net efirried prepos sessions into' the minds of some of those who Were exiled 'stem to decide ;th e 'q uest i on of ' guilt or in, tence ?

Was he'to he asked fer instenese b. which such delay had been ;!rant. tt ? There had been one 'tbecerrence of the kind lately at York, in which the Judge rimier, aiding'in the other Court had thought that the Ifrounda wirtelt he now alleged were so important HA- to,justify the peetpertenteet. ]le had proved enough, in Nhewing that untleo .coureee hart been taken in regard to the prisonere, and that the.l', ivia.prehability that the poison of misrepresentation had crept into the m i n d s o f those who w er e to p ass t h eir verdict towel their rives. Mr. JUstiee PARZ maid, that the Lemuel Counsel intent .to assimilate the Css(' et York with the present, he was entirely micaken in it. The . cale was no more like , this titan any other case which could be mentioned. in the York cave the most flagrant and direct attempts were made - epee the persons who composed the pity. Bills.were printed end blinded a b out t h e neighbourhoot , bespeaking the concleinnittion of the pri soners ; the streets were filled with cries to the netne effect much as, " Make way for the witnesses against Win. Mend," and others as bad, which tended to the most dedared and open perversion of justice. Mr. Awrineews justified his statement by the contents of the reports made of that case. Mr. Justice Pane said, that lie could bear of Co reports against the authority of the Judge's notes, which he had read over attentively. AstanEws said, that he nittin, with all inunility, con tend, at least, that the case showed that prejudicial publican dons and statements were considered to be a good ground for the po'stponement of a trial, But why need ho cite eases ? Was there seer a ease which resembled tine, either as to the degree of public sensation, or th e p ower used by the pres s in raising and exciting it ? This was the ground tot asking --not but that any juror empanelled might be us pure as his lawciship, and, according to the rights Of, his understanding and his general capacity, be prepared to decide as honestly; but their inferior education, the realm of their circumstances, and every thing that belonged to their condition, aided in preventing them from rooting the prejudices and feelings Which the puhlications must hate imparted to their minds. Ile would appeal to the Court, to hear what would be the danger of postponcinente— Could the ends ef justice he either compromised or defeeted ? Was the preetelent to be deemed 80 nrwous 1/5 to rt qui re t h a t the application should b e re f use d ? de.appreltentled not—he apprehended that the gravest duty of a Jtitige was to edini n i ater instice with an equal hand, without feeling too much interest fir the prisoner to prevent hint front fully considering the into. rests of the public. What did he ask but delay, and that only for two short months ? Could the public inconvenience be so lgreat 115 te jw.tify refusal ?• 7 Cotildelre public mit:chief to be a, rehended be a sufficient 'reason V Ile wus convinced this coul g d ,not he; because; brit for the additional :naive which had been appointed for the general interests of justice, thc month of March would have beim the proper time for these trials.. Then look at the sittuteion Ut' the pritionere: let it be enesidered how unfortu nate they were, besides being among the taril' in ste r cot which fell within the new regulation, in the setting of Knell a stet Ant of prc judicial statements against then,. He could not doubt the wis doin of the Legislature in appointing the third assize ; but it roust be owned, th at i n this penicillin. carte, attended with these extruordinery eiremnstanees, that which had been designed, anti wisely 30, for the interests of jllstietis Ir‘ir likely to operate harshly upon then'. What other argument could be brought against his 'application P " Why," it might be said, "do it new, and you may put any trial off by proving that the facts have been previously published in the newspapers." He rip prehentled that such a case would nht occur ; he expected that the stage and the tires, would never be put itt action in the same manner again, to the detriment of public justice. Ile expeited this ronsequenee from the proceeding ot' to-d a y, especially it' the Court should a ssen t to the reasons which he had adduced. As it was, he Apprehended, that the - comments which would be made, by his Lordship upon this most tiangerans practice, to gether with all the various declarations !bid) were likely to be elicited from other gutters; would so operate, that no such in justice would ever be done vain. fie hoped that he had drown sufficient grounds for granting the delay which had been falkiAl. Mr. Ott IiXEY then put in a short affidavit front Mr. Nichol son, the Under-sheriff, denying the expressions Attributed. to hint in the effidavit, and admitting others, whi c h, t h ou g h put eepatbetieelly, m i g h t b e supposed to lead to a harsh concu sion upon Thurtelfs case. Mr. A wttn ewe thenked his Learned Priend fir the upper- Utility of ehowing the effects which hall been wrought, when as gentleman like the Under-sheriff; man °flaw, with consider able professional experience, and great knowl e d ge of the world, could suffer front them. lie, being it Minister of justice and legal agent, found th e d oors of his mind so locked up by pree jtitlice, that he could, by no means agein open them, to the ape. ration Of 'contrary conviction, but felt himself compelled to pro. flounce upon the guilt of the prisoner before he bud been brought to Wei. Mr. PLATT spoke in the sameargument. It was not enough to *how that in the case done or two persons likely to he called upon the Jury, there had been no prejudice !Wiled nor was it enough th a t one or two persons should feel' satisfied that no prejudice bad been worked ; the. publics mind, in the go." neral 'tense of thin expression, most be eatiefiedethist the priioners were brought to a really impartial To sho w this was imp oss ibl e , a ft er the going forth of *riled state mews, and the publication of heated anti prejudicial Amts. The time which had boon asked was ineoneiderable— only three abort months ; the object was of the deepest import- Airco to secure the purity ofjuatice. One exemplary itietsince of the power of these prepossessions had heen hut now Ibmisku`d to them. fle cared not, for his arglimet;t, whtt'iier the cattail sions of the tinder-Sheriff were hypothetical or not. it plandw.. evinced what was to he eepected Prom tnintle . lette eaperi ence d and relined, and therefore leas worthy to be trusted. Still,-'he hail is higher authority than that case afforded him, to show the, power and extent of the prejudice. IliaLonitthi had foti /I necessary, in th e exercise of' his great judgMent, p to colic' urt et • Jury trout other and .more distant parts of the country. That wax the strongest argument which could he. urg ers favour of the application. There was fear in the mind of the Judge that theprtsoners would not , without dun precaution, 114V0 a fair trial. What had the l ega l a d v i sers of the prisoners done to coon the part i es engi?ged in this mode of counteracting teract thiaprojudice? They bad don e all in their power-41 the due ad which the Jaw empowered them to do, to expose atel plinieh all . ministration ofjuetice. Vrom the time whe.n they had cognise ttee' of these transactions, and from the time when they had access tie their client, but !leiter+ of the term remained unexpired.

Now, see the. advelitegs of this nuepension. Public j ust i ce w i ll have time to act onether term Will allow the Counsel for the.prieonera to entio, ita ibr poseible, the mischief which at present operatic. It is tr ue that under any circumstances, and almost at any tittle, a prejudice must exist against the ,prisoners front what has alreedy, occurred but ;till if a reasonabl e t i me b e allowed for the counteraction of what } Net beeh done, the punishment of the parties who have impeded the course of pohlte justice will have some weight in securing an impartial feeling. The strong arm of the law wilt have its forte—the intervening time will have Bard its weight, end prejudices will have subsided. He did not mean to say that those who necessarily incur:cliche imputation ()ribose pre judices, were culpalde; Indeed, if culpability could be *scribed to them, he knew not where he mold step in casting the impu tation.
