ON A LATE ATTEMPT To TIE-WA SEI " 1 ? BROUGHAM. (From " Thocrwooo's Edinbuyvh lifttgatixe.") (Concluded from yesterda?s SUN.) When we review, then. the political life of Mr. Brougham, we fi n d that he was, iu the in fancy of his career, the idolator of that same Mr. P' •t whose mem. , ry he now assails with deep hos tility—that he was like one bound tei the triumphal car of that master spirit, till death arrested his magnificent course, and impartially annihilated his Power, either of serving his country, or re warding his followers—that a sudden light then descended on this fiery patriot, and transformed him at once, from the worshipper into the severe censor of that great Statesman, who had just pain the debt of nature; and we find, moreover, that this generous prison, after haying crept into the favour of the party then momentarily triumphant, by an unseemly placard asainst the fame of the departed, has shown himself throughout to be one of the blindest votaries°, f ion—qoaffing to the very drees the poisoned cop of party rancour and bostility-m.and carrying his opposition to Govern ment to a pitch of extravagant excess, which has made the tome moderate leaders of pary shrink from his en .operation, and has at length reduced him to 'hat .mphibious rank in politics which renders it doubtful %%irtier he belongs, in the ge nerd classifiewino, to the vaerant insaurty of Spafields, or the chastised Jaeohinism of Holland- Lowe One or two tl,itigs he has done, which have had a casual, and in a single instance at least, a merited popularity ; and there is no end to the grafts which his friends woold thrust into this slender stork of political merit. Ile opposed the Orders in C , runcil ; hut it was with the ad dress of an American trader, and in the spit it of a French Dona/lief ; and he followed in the rear of Mr. Wilhrt force, and other great men united for the abolition of the Slave Trade. In this last instance, however, Mr. Broughton had the merit ,it least of: being well employed—and we fully give him all the credit that can be doe to his sub oidivare services ; with this single excep tion, from which lie has already derived more Heats his ‘wegurite portion of fame, we know not upon is teat occasion he has, as a politician, exem pliEted the high (1 't i itiea for which his friends so liberally give him credit, or laid the broad basis of mbar moral evidence froorgeneee! iitiral character, which is to shelter him from the conseq , ences of acin,il and proved misconduct. The lets er complains, that personalities to wards NI r. Brougham, anti misrepresentations of his views, have been allowed to mingle with this great public controversy. Vie are tint aware that there have beett misrepresentations, except on the part of the b!iintrrog interpreter of College Sta. totes, who insisted Oil rating Oxford and Con bri !go aino ,, g the institutions formed for the trio. ration of rite lower orders. As to personalities, however, we have a few words to say. It was impos•itile to touch the subject at all without p t i ismu .,! it :11 r. 131 ongh.rn —to the learn ed a,ithor of the %ehrile stupeodous project—the Chairman—•he head—the guitling power—the very soul in tact of the Committee—for no one could consider his civic adjuncts—Sir Cu' tis or Ahleroam , , Wood, for ex:.!atplc, slumber in the c rolui , t , e-routpt—in any other light !Lau as the mere vb blet lire of the anomalous com. position—the ballast liberally thrown into the great discovery ship of Retortn. Of the conduct of Mr. Brougham. therefote, it became necessary to treat, or to tr main altogi thee silent. Is it the alternative that !he Whigs would modestly impose no their political adversaries ? And is it indeed the Edinburgh Heviewris who complain at itChrep,osei,a.ititi and p•rsonalities—of the oc casional use by the r opooDents of their own wea pons, with which rhey I,are for 20 years main - tained a scandalous warfare with the ;,rood and the 111031 venerable institutions of their cowl try ? There has, in this instance, been neither presentattrio nor calumny on the part of the 'furies ; but if there had, with what grace would remonstrance have come through the pages of a jrwrii a l et hid ) h a s Hu g set an example of every thing :lint is sour, ante uncompromisiug in poli'ical discussion I Are the Whigs a privi- Ir order for circulating all sorts of misrepre sentations—a chatterers oligarchy of detraction Do the (cruder elements of political controversy, by some n;ce principles of moral tiffioity, form a natural .and erareful combination with their cause, and en; it ie them to a MenOpOly of such shameful resources ? If not, their keen and vindictive sen sibility oil thi; point is unaccountable—tor we do pot remember, in the whole rouge of our perio ideal liretature, a single work which has exhibit ed More copious examples than their owl) fa vouri e Joustial of all ihe most reprehensible stra tagems of poliHcal wat fare—which has dealt more unceremoniously with the loftiest and most vene rable names of our country, both living mid dead —which has approached with more scorliog oc cint and !Dore unhallowtd ?laud, the consecrated faloic of our domestic policy, froth sacred and civil—or which has so defied the dignity and ge nerosity of notional feeling, and madly breathed its pestil. to rancour even against the genius of our native land. And now that the title of for time has gtorioosly turned, and whelmed in its progress every tiny embankment which the Re viewers had constructed agitinit its majestic re sul•ioti—now that their chilling sophistry has no ally lo the tow,riog despotism which they %I:m.- 011;11(ot, or the alarmed bosoms which they wrung with their eternal comminations—now .hat bat tled ptedictioo, rind exposed delusion, and irre ttievahle disappointment, and supet vetting dotage, have left them milted and imbecile, to sustain the pelting Storni of viiiicole which descends Upon them fruit, every termer of the land—they complain of the destiny which they have wrought for them selves; hut they complain in vain, for it is `` un shirromble as demi)," and enduring as the me- Mory of their manifold and stupendous wrongs."

Mr. limit haul said wily a few words, to he peirecalde mid quiet, arid IVA: the soldiers came. We were on the grailliti hall brirae :11r. Hunt canna 'file damage happened, per haps, 5, 111, or 15 minutes alter Mt. Hunt ca tae; peril fps sooner; there. are persons here who saw the caruaae, card eau tell the time accurately. We could Hot eat aa ay, the crow" teas so great- The Yeomanry Cavalry calve up fitst, anti then the tali, anti they got so contusea that 1 can not tell which of them stunk the deceased. There was an °dicer, who gave me au opportunity at eseapiag, er I should have been left dead. I eaettot tell wise ther t'acy struck or cut any di cooing up to the hustings. I eassiiaut say that their sits a way open; the people were runinag in , ever) tart:a:turn. 'lliere was a shoat front the people anti from the military, who were diet' standing still, and 'caring their swords over their Reads and shoulders. '1 he military then came as fast as they canal nail., their way I orange tite people. 1 could wily see the liaises' heads when they got ill to the crowd. 'They cut Iretare I could get away. The) made their way at least 100 yaras t liraugh the crowd. When lliey • were a dozen yards from hue I first saw them Cut. c had no idea that they would have cat, or we uric lit have got away quicker. people made no resistance. The luirses tilieht walk or gallop fur what I could see. I do not know whether they cut before or 110 h. They cut several noire ; but whether before the deceased was cut or not I eaatiot tell. I saw them cultiag at the carriage in which wutnen were. They cut through my butt. 1 saw none that was cut before Jinni Lees. 1 saw many cut afterwattk ; but I du not know whether by the Yeutinaira ur the lath ; I did not observe whether they bad heard era their tipper lips. Au officer of the 15th said, wheal 1 is as down, " For shame, won't you give the people time to eta away. your see them down ?" \\ hen I got up I saw them cutting at the people. 1 saw a sword broken some inches from the point. It was nut for hue that the officer inter fered, but flit the people to get away. There might be trout half e dozen and a dozen soldiers in ray view. I (mid not see any distance. I ran off hultiud tile urtheet's horse, and went along with a body of the. crowd. I saw tame cut there, and did not look behind rue. The soldiers had gone another way. He was a Yeoloaary man that put the puma of his sword through my That; he thrust it through, but did ilia strike ant. I called to him nut to murder tile, and he struck no more at me. '!'het' did nut hurt me or utohn Lees, ot guilt; up to the hustings, and I catitiot tell whether it was the per suns who went up to the hustings, Ur Others. I catinot say Whether they struck in coming up to the hustings, but I saw their swords going in all directions. I saw their swords rising up and falling down. It might he alniut half past one, I had no previous information that the 'affinity wet e coming, till , I heal d the shout, and then I saw them cuming. We believed that they were coming only to ;serest the speakers. They did that, but they were nut conteat with that; if they were, John Lees would not he now dead, or I ill so long. They did nut give the people time to get away. I never heat d of a Riot Act read, amid I saw no person hawing a paper in his haul. I SOW 11011 e 111 coloured clothes, and I/011e lint those un horseback. I never heat dof a Magistrate ardering the meet lug to disperse. I was 11114)11 the hustings to have a view of the tnectiag before Mr. Haut CalllC. I WV.; anxious to get asst, but I was trampled (lowa under the horses before I could escape. The soldiers desired WC to go about my tarsi 'less, and asked tae if I wuulil ever come there again. Wheu ever they struck they said, " Go about your busrau,s." They struck many times at Lees before lie was eat. Upon my Ottli I never saw Lees strike. He warded oft blows by receiving them on his stick. He did nut strike before he was wounded, and did not see him after. I newer sass' any one attempt to strike at ;any horse or soldier. I saw tanning thrown orcast at them. I heard no reports of gull or piste! at that time. I never heard John Lees say that I•ie had dismounted one soldier.— He was not hurt lie the first soldier, because he received his blots Oil the stick. Mr. Emit was on the stage when 1 tell down. I did not see him taken into custody. 1. saw no horse Liar soldier on the ground. I think it would not be above 10 iiiiinites from the tunic 1 fell till I .;tit oil' the ground. I went then to my sister's house, where I got myself washed and had • same refreshment. I often sass' Julio Lee: before at a public- i ' blase—a news-room ; Abraham, I don't kitow what. you call hint. These arc questioas that I do nut think proper to be I pat to me. Coroner—l stn not satisfied that you knew him. NVittic,s—l can prove that, Sir. Mr. Harmer—You have sworn it. That's enough. Witness—l did not keep an account of the several times I saw him, or where it was. I saw him at public ineetinzs. lint the time I particularly got acquainted with him was the I saw the body, and 1 should have known him then if I had not Inc!) told of his death. Robert Neild fetched me t o gi ve evidence befor e the Coroner.—(The \sinless here gave a minute account of the deceased's dress on ►he His hat was none of the best. I saw nothing the matter with it more thall With any other hat witch worn. The crown was riot cut or torn off. Ity Mr. Harmer—l am unwell now from the wounds. I did not go for any riot or disturbance, nor John Lees. There was not the least. disturbance or desire of riot beture the mi litary entered. There were many women and children among the crowd. They were all in good humour. There were no arms. 1 had the handle of an old umbrella fur a stir!:. The shout from the people was to show the soldiers that they re garded them as friends, and I understood the soldiers to re turn it. Thn,y advanced in a few minutes afterwards. We did not endeavour to get away till the soldiers began to cut; hot thin; it war; imposillile to get away. It would not he in the power of many to stoop to the ground to get any thing to be thrown, if they v,ishetl it. I saw no attempt it was in in . ;ll - ,1::4 noticed the , lat. !Mr. Harmer had been, on this ~ceasion, interrupted by the Coroner for putting leading questions. Mr Harmer said, it was only to save time: but h e would Proceed legally.) Rohert Nei ani a hatter, and knew John Lees for 7 or 8 years. The first time I saw him, after he was wounded. was at the sign of the Shears, Newton-heath, on the IGth Augmt. He showed me th e wound nu his right elbow, and be said lie had a wound on his shoulder, which none had looked ! looked, and observed what I thought a stab. I saw his shoe rent. This was about live o'clock. I had seen him pass the window, and called him in. He pointed out Joseph Wligley to me as we were going borne, and said, " is the man that saw nie have my wounds; he was with me." They then met. and shook hands. I did not know Wrigley th:!:]. Wrigley asked 113 to go in to the Wool Pack : hat the deceased refused, and said his aria was stiff. The wit ticss Ilf7W produced the coat. 'Else right sleeve was all co vered with hound. The Foreman said, he believed it to hare been the deceased's coat, for he bad seen him often pass his warehouse with it. It was what is called corbeau. He also produced the shoe which was fncciloy torn up. The Coroner wished to have the identity regularly proved. l'llr. Harmer said, it was very easy to do so, if the Jury wish, d it. The Coroner said, he had no doubt of the identity, but he Niched to proceed regularly. Withess proceeded. I saw him on Sunday the 99th. He then compl.iiied much, said he had lost his appetite, and that he WaS very ill.

By this tune a number of persons had leered round the spot, lair erns were li..hted, and being suspended by a siring, were lowered into the well with a view of ascertaining the sitinHoll of the unfortubtate man, wh use es piring struggles were now h ear d rer y p lainly ; hut no sonnet were they imtnersed into the vr.ll , tha, they were in stantly exttngni lied by the I:uXiotiS vapour, and the by-standers were in the greatest per.' plexity, as none dared venture down or knew ill what manner to act, until a passenger directed them to ttia!:e use of the only effectual -Inca° stile which can he used upon such occasions for dissipating the impure gas ; namely, by throwing down water, whico was intinediately done, and tire young man n ho had first ventured to descend ag2 l3 went down With a rope.
