OLD BAILEY. FOR THE SUN. BANK PROSECUTIONS. - Yesterday William John Pannington was indicted for uttering a forged note, purporting to be a genuine one, he well knowing it to be forged and counterfeit, with an intent to defraud the Governor and Com pany of the Bank of England. Sophia Green stated, that on the ci4th of June the prisoner came to the shop of her father, who is a butcher, residing in King-street, Holborn, and purChased some meat, in payment of which he gave a one-pound note, giving his address— " Pluning - ton, Phwnix-alley, Long Acre." Upon inquiry, it was discovered that he did not reside there ; this note was afterwards proved to be a forgery. A short time after, a man came into the shop and purchased a shoulder of mutton, giving in payment a 11. note, with' the address, " Kemp, Legg-alley, Long Acre,". which turned out to be false ; this also was proved to be a forgefY; and the prisoner was seen watching the shop of the butcher, upon which he was taken into custody. The Jury, after. an absen6e of two hours and a half, found the prisoner Not Guilty. Elizabeth Callaghan, Jon:: Newman, and John Madden, were put to the bar, on an indictment charging them with knowingly uttering a paper purporting to be a 11. Bank of England note, on the 10th of June last, to Mr. Cordell, of Btidge street, Limehouse, with intent to defraud the Governor and Company of the Bank of 'Eng land. The two first named prisoners pleaded Guilty to the minor offence on Saturday, but the other prisoner refusing to do so, they were all put to the bar as a matter of form. THE CHARACTER Oi." LOUIS XVI Ma. EDITOR—At this present moment, it May not bQ inapplicable to present to your reader's the character of the unfortunate Louis XVI, col lected from the , Letters of an eminent politiCal writer, " ON A REGICIDE PEACE."—The un happy Louis XVI was a man of the best:inten tions probably, that ever reigned, lie was by no means deficient in talents. He had a most laudable desire to supply by general reading, and even by the acquisition of elemental knowledge, an education in all points originally defective but nobody told him (and it Was no wonder be should not himself divine it) that the world of which he read, and the-World in which he lived, were no longer the same. Desirous of doing every thing for the best, fearful of cabal, -dia.- trusting his own judgment, he sousht his Minis ters of all kinds upon public testimony. But as Courts are fields for caballers, the public is the theatre for mountebanks and impostors. The cure for both those evils is in the discernment of the Prince. But an accurate and penetrating dis cernment is what in a young prince could not lie looked for. 11 . 3 r, ted ver net' By Order nithe Board, R. FL GREW, Secretarv, gur e So O.b4FICE OF ORDArdiNCE.

By Order of the Board, R. H. CREW, Sec. e 60 wit 4 hal xero This bad sold His conduct in its principle was not unwise ; but, like most other of hii well meant designs, it failed in his hands. It failed partly from mere ill fortune, to which speculators are lardy pleased to assign that very large share to whiCh She is justly entitled . in - all human affairs. The failure, perhaps, in part was owing to his suffering his system to be vitiated and disturbed'by those intrigues, which it is, humanly speak ing, impossible wholly to prevent in Courts, or indeed tinder any form of Government. However, with these observations, he gave himself over to a succession of _t he statesmen of pub lic opinion. In other things he thought that he might be a King on the terms of his predecessors. He was conscious of the purity of his heart, and the general good tendency of his government. He flattered himself, as most men in his situa tion will, that•be might consult his case without danger to his safety. It is not at all wonderful that both be and his Mi nisters, giving way abundantly in other respects to innoterfior, should take up in policy with the tradition of their Monar chy. Under his ancestors, the Monarchy had subsisted, and even been strengthened by the gerurratiOn or support of re publics. First, the Swiss republics grew under the gunr dianship of the French Monarchy. Tire Dutch republics were hatched and cherished tinder the same incubation. Afterwards a Republican Constitution was, tinder the influ ence of France. established in the Empire against the preteb sions of its chief. Even whilst the Monarchy of France, V I a series of wars and negotiations, and lastly by the treaties of Westphalia, had obtained the establishment of the Protest, ants in Germany, as a law of the Empire, the sante Monarchy under Louis the lath had force enough to destroythe repub lican slstem of the - Protestants at home.

COURT OF ALDERMEN.—Yesterday the LORD MAYOR held a Court of Aldermen at Guildhall, for the general dispatch of public busiiiess. Mr. Alderman Waithman, Sheriff Elect, attended, and gave bond in the penalty of 10001. to take upon himself that office on Michaelmas-day next. The Lord Mayor declared a vacancy in the si tuation of Beadle of the Court of Requests, which was appointed to be filled up at the next Court.—Joseph Isreal Brandon, a Jew Broker of the city, attended, and surrendered his office, when Lewis Cohen, of the Jewish nation, was admitted, and sworn into that office in his stead. —The Inquests of the Wards of Coleman-street, Bishopsgate, and Aldersgate, and of the parish of St. Sepulchre's, in the Ward of Farringdon Without, attended, and made presentments of sundry ruinous houses and non-freemen. The Solicitor was directed to put the Act of Parlia ment, of the 14 Geo. 111. into execution, in re lation to ruinous houses, and the non-freemen were referred to the Chamberla'i'n.—Sundry brokers were sworn and allowed, and others dis charged from that office. Sundry bills were or dered for payment. ELDER.— the leaves of the elder-tree are often put into the subterraneous paths of the moles, to drive them from the garden. If fruit trees, flowering shrubs, corn, or vegetables, be wiped with the green leaves of elder branches, insects will not attach to them. An infusion of these leaves in water is good to sprinkle over rose buds and other flowers subject to blights and the devastations of caterpillars. At half-past two yesterday morning a fire broke out in the premises of Mr. CUTIIEN, hatter, in the Minories. The fire- burned with great fury, communicating to the house of im —r.

It was full of passenger?, seve ral of whom were much hurt, but none danger ously. The accident 0t.,.....red by one of the wheels coming off. Louis the 16th was a diligent reader of History. But the very lamp of prudence blinded him. The - guide of lit are life led him astray. A silent revolution in the moral world. preceded the political, and prepared it. !ti:came of .ntore. importance than ever what examples were given, and what measures were adopted. Their causes no longer lurked itt the recesses of Cabinets, or in the private conspiracies of the factious. They were no longer to be controlled by the forte and influence of the Grandees, who formerly had been able to stir up discontents, and to quiet them by their corruption. The chain of subordination, even in cabal and sedition, was broken in its most important links. It was no longer the grege and the poptlouS. Other interests were formed, other de pendencies, other connexions, other communications. no middle classes bad swelled far beyond theirformer proportion.. like whatever is the most effectively rich and great in society, these classes became the seat of the active politics; and thts preponderatiwz, weight to decide on them. These were a!t the energies by which fortune is acquired; these the conse quence of their success. These were all the talents which assert their pretensions, and are impatient of the place which settled society prescribes to them. These descriptins bait got between tbe great and the populace; and the influence ets the lower classes was with them. The spirit of anthilitr: bad taken possession of this class as violently as ever it bad done of any ot her. They felt the importance of this situation,— The correspondence of the monied and the mercantile world, the literary intercourse of Academies ; hut, above all, the) press, of which they had in a manner entire possessior‘„ press, ina kind of t el i e s c u tr ia ic de co e m ve t r u y un g i , c n ti . i. nl i ne e i s: t e , r i y n e its srpeirit'f.bie. most ' democratic. _ _ Without the Great, the first movements in ibis revolution could -not, perhaps,-hare been given. But the spirit of ambition, now fur the first time connected with the spirit of 3'peczticaic - n, was not to he restrained at will. There was no longer any means of arresting a principle in its course. When Louis the 16th, under the influence of the enemies to Mo narchy, meant to found but one Republic, he set up two. Wben..he toeant to take away half the Crown of his nergn hour, he lost the whole of his own. Louis the it;th could not impunity .eountenance -a new Republic, yet between his throne and that dangerous lodgment for an enemy, whic4 he,had erected, be had the whole Atlantic for a ditch. He _had for an outwork the English Nation itself, friendly to lie -betty, adverse to that mode of it., He was surrounded by ;s rampart of Monarchies. most of them allied to him, and ge nerally under his influence. Yet, even thus secnrod, a repub lic erected under his auspices, :Ind dependent on his power, became fatal to his throne. The very no.may which he Lail lent to support this Republic, by a good faith which operated as perfidy, was punctually paid to his enenzies, and' becarne•ia rest/puree in the hands I t - ht -. , ..rassins.—Such is the charac ter of Louis the 16th, as poortrayed by this ,vritcr. Upon another uppnrtutlity we shall insert our comments and reflections upon it ; and by explaining inferences that may be drawn from the History of that period, endeavour 'is awaken the energiet of Britons, to foresee the danger which, 'they ate abant to incur. DuPa..—A duel, which it is feared will prove fatal in its consequences, took place on Ascot Heath Race Course on Monday, between two young Gentlemen, of the names of FENt--,naw and II ARTINGER. The parties were distantly related, and the subject in dispute was respecting a male relative, more nearly to the latter Gentleman, whose conduct as aspersed by Mr. F. for countenancing the visits of a Capt. G-6. The parties, after the ?,econd fire, refused a con ciliation, and in the third fire both were woir.d ed, Mr. F. in the arrn, and Mr. 11. in the body . , where the ball had lodged. A surgeoa accom- I panied Mr. H. off the ground in a .pest-chaisc.— ' (Morning Paper>) RoßurnY.-00 the night cf Friday last, the house of „Tons Tnott:vrolz, Esq. of Allam's-terL. race, Kensington, was broken into, and a consi derable quantity of plate stolen therefrom.
