never been incorporated, is not provided win the seriTe means, and . ilie same gradations of its public Officers, to ensure the unity and e ffi ciency of its ), exertions tor the prevention of crimes, by-the same system of controul and superintendance. 'But your Committee have to observe, that by the-Statute of the 27th of Elizabeth, presiding ano subordinate Officers are appointed, and powers given to the Dean and Chapter, and to -the High Steward and others, to make regulations for_ the good govern ment of the City of Westminster. It appears that Lord Burleigh was appointed the first High Stewatd, and a code of regulations as introduced by him, and a division of its trCal limits into twelve Wards, for ,the purpose of a 'more perfed super in'endance. The duties and superintendance of the High Steward have fallen into great disuse, although very important duties are imposed on him: It appears,- however, that on great occasions of ceremony, he has from time to time personally interfered, and put himself at the head of the whole civil force of. the City of Westminster, marshalling and arranging the' subordinate Officers. The present High Steward, the . Marquis of Buckingham, is Fated to have so intorfered at the funerals of Lord Nelson and Mr. Pitt. The Statute of 14 Geo. 111. c. go. seems to have superseded this system, and is of such pte-eminent importance with reference to the subjea matter of the present investigation, that your Committee have inserted large extraas from it in the Appendix. It is a local Aa, applicable to the City and Liberties of Westminster, and certain other parishes therein named; and with great detail, prescribes the duties of constables, beadles, patroles and watchmen. It is not founded upon the principle of 10 Geo. 11. c. YQ. which relates to the City of London, and which entrust to the Lord Mayor and others the whole of the detai4.of the . Nightly. Watch, as to numbers, distribution, wages of the watchmen, and oiler particulars ; but it limits the discretionary powers of the different parochial Authorities, qnd with the• most serupuletis MinuteneSs prescribes the exaa manner in which the various descriptions of persons employed mist discharge their duties, and defines the smallest number which each parish is to employ, and the lowest amount of wages to be paid. It retails the manner in which miscondua and neg lett is to be punished, and meritorious exertions re warded. It is observable, that both these Statutes refer to the ancient Statute of Watch and Ward, the 13th Edward I. and recognize the, principle; that the proteaion of every distria is a compulsory duly incumbent on the inhabitants; and therefore an ex press'clause is inserted in each of these Ass, to dis chlt,ge frpm this duty such inhabitant as shall con tribute to the Rate for defraying the expence of such apd Ward.. Other parishes or hamlets are s • g6vrrned •by particular Acts of Parliament, autho rising the raising of rates for watching and lighting, and vesting powers in certain Commissioners or Vestries for carrying these purposes into effect ; but in many cases, the execution of the law is extreme ly defective, and in some cases, the power of raising money is inadequate; in others, the full amount is not levied, the mode of watching generally bad, and the men employed, both in number and ability, wholly inefficient for the purpose. In other parishes, there is no legitimate provision, and upon the whole,, no uniform system prevails; and neither the Magistracy, nor the Government, have at present any connection whatever with the state of the watch, and no 'controul or superintend ance ov. r it. • ft would appear that this Statute of the 14 Geo. 111. c. 90. has been very little known, or very loosely examined and' considered ; for many of the witnesses whom, we have examined, and many of the projects wthich have been submitted to our con sideratiun, suggest, as valuable improvements, the very principles, and very details, which are en lur,ed by substantive enactment in this very statute. - (To be continued.) Monday dispatches were received at the Admi ralty from Sir E. Pewsw, brought by the York, which sailed from Gibraltar previous to the Entre prenante cutter, and has been upwards of six weeks on her passage. The New York Papers abound with accounts of violent shocks of earthquakes experienced in various parts of North America. There are also accounts of a volcano on the banks of the Mississipi, but they are considered doubtful. A beautiful horse is in constant training every day in St. James's Park, intended for her Royal highness Plincsss CHARLOTTE Of WALES, and is regularly familiarized to the noise of arms and drums, and to the sight of troops and military pa rade.

The efficacy of Dr,JAmEs's Powder and Ana leptic Pills in tt.e Cure of Rheumatism, so remark ably exemplified lately in the case of a Gentleman in Dublin, was completely established some years ago '‘by two Gentlemen labouring under a similar complaint, Mr. At thingtor, of Leeds, in Yorkshire, and Mr. William B4rtou Borwick, of Gray's-inn, London; who were recovered from the most de plorable state and lived many years afterwards in peatect health; affording universally their testimo nies of t viitues of these Medicines. In sligiit and recent attacks of 'Rheumatism the Analepiic ill readily effed a cure, but in violent pa roxysms, attended with inflammation and fever, the, Powder should be freely administered. They are also equally excellent in gouty and bilious affec tions.

O.IRTP:C,k - eigS77,g.s?. Tbtirsdat morning th e Court opened at nice o'clock, and proceeded w mat of William Brookes, Clefli, for the murder of Hannah Miller, a young womali, 14 ears of age. The Jury being sworn, Mr. Clarke, COunsel for the prosecution, briefly sta!ed tlica:e, the particulars of which will be best seen in the evidence. The'firSt witness called was William Tew ; he lives in Cow-lane, Warwick, and knows the prison.; er, who had lived for some time with Mr. George. On the s'h of March last, he heard the report of a pistol about two o'clock ; he came to his strop win-; dov, ar►d heard a cry in Mr, George's yard like person in great distress ; he went into the yard, and saw Hannah Miller sitting on the ground, and sup potting herself with her right hand ; she held a let te.r in her left hand : he went up to her, and asked her what was the matter ? she said, Parsori Brookes has shot me with a pistol." He raised her np, and with the assistance of Mrs. Hall, carried her into the front kitchen. He looked at thTback of the girl, and saw a hole in her gown, and blood running Boar it. Soon after, the prisoner came id with nothing on but his shirt, and both hi= hands were behind f►im"; he did riot say arty thin, ; he staid iibout half a minute ? and then went away._ Two women took care of the girl, but the witness did not leave the room. He soon heard the report of another pistol towards the stairs- (this was abdah a minute aftir the deceased had left the kitchen to be taken up stairs) : and saw the deceased lying at the bottom cf the stairs as though she was, dyad. He examined her, and saw another hole under the. left ear,-ai;dlhe blood running down. Witness . rook the dtcoa , k,!d into the front Kitchen. Prisoner said, " I could kill half a score of you if I liked, it is of no use - holding me." Cross'-examined by Mr. S-rjeant VAUGHAN. ,Witnes;3 had known the prisotwr 'our or - five years: He had beard him called Aitr4 •Brookes.— Witness one day saw hint walkit , g in the yard with nothing but his slprt on. He knew the prisoner frequently lay in'bed for t long lirne , The next witness; Elizabeth Hammond, said, s! , e took the girl up ,stairs after she had bear shot the first time. While she was taking the deceased un stairs, she saw Broiakes standing on the stairs.— Witness said to him, " Brookes, what have you .been doing ? go to bed instantly:' His left hand was concealed under his right arm ; he drew it fro under, and site saw something in his hand ; 'she screan:ed, and turned round to go away. She. imy rnedi3tely heard the report of a pistol, and soon after saw the girl had been wounded in the neck. She believes the deceased was 14 years of age the day she died. • On her cross.examination, she said she had beard' him called by different persons Mad Brookts, the Mad Parson. She, knows he has been confined in' the house where he resided, she believes he was tied down. Witness has seen him in the yard with only his shirt on ; she had seen many other oddities of his at different times. Question from the Court.—Have you any doubt on your mind whether the prisoner was deranged at the time you saw him on the stairs when the welder was cony - flitted ? Not any. Ann Cooke, John Squires, and several other wit nesses, deposed to the same effeB ; when Mr. Serjeant Vaughan observed to the Judge, that be thought it was .useless going on with the trial, as evident marks of insanity had been pzoved by tile witnesses. The Learned Judge addressed the Jury, and told them, that if they were satisfied as to ihe insanity of the prisoner, no more evidence would be produced; but if they were not, he would bear all the witnesses that had not been called. The Jury said they were quite satisfied as to the insanity of the prisoner. His Lordship again addressed the Jury. - He said it was proper they should be satisfied that the pri soner was undrr mental . derangement a t th e ver y time the Inuakr was committed. After making . a few comments on the evidence,. the Learned Judge conclud e d by o b• erv i ng, that if the prisoner, was acquitted of the murder, in.i;inity must b be, ground of that acquits!, ai , d Under such circum stances, he would be confined duriog his Majesty's pleasure!. . , . The Jury consulted about two minutes, aid re turned a verdkl of Guilty of the murder, but acquit ted on the ground of insanity. BIRTHS.
