SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. A very curious pamphlet has just been sent us, etititled Statement of the Proceedings regarding the Election of a Delegate at Cupar, &c., which lays stronger grounds for a Reform in the Representa tion of Scotland than any publication that has of late appeared. It probably may not be known to all our readers, that there is only one burgh or city in &ethnic' which engrosses a whole Member of Parliament to inself. All the rest are divided into districts of four or five, which have each a fraction of a Member, and share a Member between them. As the election cannot take place by town councils or corporations, meeting in a body, each burgh of a district empowered to make a Legislator elects a delegate, and sends him to one of the said bo roughs, which is called the returning borough for the time. Thus the Member is at last returned by these four or five individuals, who, however, re ceive their instructions from their respective coun cils to support a particular candidate. The district of burghs which includes Cupar, consists of Cupar, Forfar, St. Andrew's, Perth, and Dundee. At the general Election the candidates for representing these pure corperations.in Parliament were the Hon. Smart Wortley, the son of Lord Wharneliffe, and the lion. Col. Ogilvy, the brother of Lerd Airlie. Mr. Wortley contrived .to make himself suddenly known to that distant part of the empire as the best representative -that could be found either north or south of the Tweed, and won the hearts of three corporations, who probably before had remained in culpable ignorance that such a promising young statesman was in existence. Perth, St. Andrew's, and Dundee, were the burghs on which this light from the south beamed, The remaining two, Cu par and Forfar, were equally distinguished for saga city in discovering the merits of Colonel Ogilvy. Mr. Wortley, of course, ought to have been the undisputed Member, as he had three against two; but it so happened that the Corporation of Dundee was in a state of i;uspended animation, and could lend him no support. It had been disfranchised in March by a judgment of the Court of Session, and not having recovered its rights, could not of course communicate any rights to Mr. Wortley. Colonel Ogilvy had but two boroughs in his favour; but as Forfar was the returning borough, its delegate pos sessed two votes—one, as a delegate, and the other as a President. A Parliamentary Committee de cided against Mr. Wortley, because, without Dun dee, he was in a minority ; and against Colonel Ogilvy, because he was proved to have treated or entertained the electors with a view to their votes. Both gentlemen, therefore, lost the kilos of their contest—of their harangues—and of their dinners. The pamphlet, which is written in the interest of Colonel Ogilvy, expresses great indignation at the grounds of this Parliamentary decision against him. The Treating Act, being an English Statute, had hitherto been entirely overlooked in deciding on Scotch election cases, and, if rigidly enforced, would probably turn out the whole of the repre sentation for the Scotch burghs. Even Mr. Wort icy himself, who carried to these benighted regions a knowledge of the English Treating Act, is averred not always to have adhered to the rigid virtue which it enjoins. Without having the fear of the statute or of private economy before his eyes, he is said to have incurred a bill of 3481. 12s. 10(1. in one inn at Forfar,—a sum which might have supported the Whole corporation for a month. The follow ing is said to be the bill which the Hon. Gentleman paid for his first election dinner; and, judging from the small proportion of it allotted to viands -41. 10s. out of 691.—we should be led to conclude that the Town Council of Forfar was the most thirsty municipality in Europe : s. d. " Ginger-beer, 6s. ; brandy, 420 s 1 6 0 " Champagne, 20/. ; claret, 211 4l 0 0 Gin, 20s. ; ale, 16s. " Brandy toddy, 2/. ; gin ditto, 1/ 3 0 0 " Dinner, 41. 10s. ; Madeira, 171. 10s 22 0 0 " £69 2 0" 'Falstaff 's sack bills and tavern reckonings were nothing to this. " Prince Henry —Search his pockets. What host thou found ? " Poins—Nothing but papers, my Lord. " Prince Henry—Let's see what they be : read them. " Poins—ltem, a Capon, 20. 2d. Item, Sauce, 4d. Item, Sack, two gallons, ss. Bd. Item Anelmvief4, and Sack after supper, 2s. 6d. 2 Item, Bread, a halfpenny." By the small sum charged for dinner, the party must have consisted of only ten or twelve members of the corporation, who drink 11/. worth of champagne and claret, and 171. 10s. Gel. worth of Maderia ; besides brandy, gin, and other liquors. If such treating was considered as nothing by Mr. \Vu thy, how enor mous must have been the consumption of claret and chi:mpagne which lost Colonel O e ilv y his seat ? Since these two gentlemen have been driven froet the field, two other candidates have entered it, one ~t 51 le m t deserves to represent a purer body of constitueres. The gentleman to whom we allude is Mr..lt !Trey, now Lord Advocate of Scotland. The Lew tied Lord succeeded to tie votes of Mr. Wortley, in Perth and St. Andrew's, but Colonel Ogilvy's brother had intrenehed himself itt Cupar and Forfar. The great aim, therefore, of the Lord Advocate's ftiends, was to dislodge Captain Ogilvy from one ref those burghs, as, by having the casting vote, they secured a mejority. We are not bound to believe every word of the statement contained in this pamphlet as to the means employed by the candidates to obtain their objects, hut as it is evi dently written by a law-agent of one of the parties, it may be considered at least like what happens in similar cases of excitement. Promises, solemnly given, and broken—pledges made and withdrawn— intrigues and influence of A kinds—threats and elfers of advantage—distinguish a contest for the vote of a rotten borough in a remote part of Scot land, having only a fifth part of a parliamentary de kgation at its •disposal, as much as any conclave which ever elected a sovereign to the Catholic world. One of the deacons to the trades is said to have been kidnapped in returning home from dinner, to he kept in prison till the election was over. The body of this deacon was enly forthcoming on the threat of procuring a legal, warrant to search for it in the nts. Another deacon bad to resist the ducat of being turned out of his house in the Duke of Newcastle style. Other members of the Council were seized for fictitious debts, by messen gers at arms, that they might be in prison when the elcctiou came on. We quote the following passage, as a curious instance of the manner in which elec toral independence is assailed or believed to be as sailed, nort h of the Tweed : ‘• The Right Ilon. Lody Mary Lindsay Cranford was )(Attested to ende,:vour to prevail with Deacon Robertson to thr,,w overboard his Ogilvy pledge.' Lady Mary's it , :ent carried out Deaccsu Robertson to the Priory, the re sidr nce of her Ladyship, on a request to speak with her Ladyship on some business. The Deacon's friends advised him to beware of going thither, lest he should be shut up Ca re by the serrants, and detained. The Deacon tie d wed that he would wait on her Ladyship as requested, and that his friends need have no apprehensions about him. This Deacon has Highland blood in his veins, and has not degenerated from the proud spirit of his country, nor for gotten the attachments of his forefathers. When the Lord Ogilvy of the day, the eldest son of the Earl of Airlie, led out his clan in support of the unfortunate House of Stuart, the ancester of Deacon Robertson went forth and shared the perils of his chief. On the present occasion he let it be known to the agent of Lady Mary Lindsay Cranford, that he had arms on his person which he ?could use against any attempt upon his freedom. He waited on her Ladyship, who personally pcssessed too much of the honour ab'e spirit of the noble House of Lindsay and Cran ford, to attempt to break down the honour or iktegrity or a tradesman in her neighbourhood. Lady Mary requ,sted Mr. Robertson to vote for the Lord Advocate. But upon an e xplanation by the Deacon, that he could not do so having previously promised to c onsistently with hones t y , vote for Captain Ogilvy, Lady Mary Lindsay Cranford A res:-ed him no farther, and courteously dismissed him." he consequence of these maliceuvres on the, part of Mt.. ,Jeffrey's friends, was a majority of the Town Council of Cupar in his favour an the day of eke. tion, till the sudden irruption of a member who was supposed to have been imprisoned, defeated the scheme. The Provost, on seeing this unwelcome euest,—at the sight of whom he expressed as much horror as Macbeth at Banquo' ghost,--ret ired with all his paktisans, in order to defeat the election, and it is doubtful whether the vote of the party who kept possession of the Hall can have any validity. The Lord Advocate's name is used on this occasion because he was a candidate, but there appears no proof that he either arranged or advised any of the manoeuvres ascribed to his party. That they were practised, however, there can be no doubt ; and if the perfect mcekcry of the Scotch representation was not already universally acknowledged, we would recommend this pamphlet to general perusal as an evidence of the fact. A whole session of do quent harangues could not be so persuasive in favour of Reform. —Dimes. If we may believe the Constitutionnel the object of the Special mission of the Duke de Montemart to St. Petersburg!), is intervention in behalf of Po land. The ti g ht of intervention in this case, rests on the erection of Poland into a governmtn►, apart from that of Russia, in 1814— " The same Sovereign," says the Coustitutionnel, " is at the head of the two States; but the two States, go verned by distinct laws and institutions, are, or ought to have been, independent of ea,th other. Should the King of Poland present himself at the head of a fraction of the Polish Nation, to re-establish the plenitude of his au thority, this is a right which Treaties imposed by force have given him ; but should the Emperor of All the Rus sia* arrive at the head of his thousand cohorts, to subject once more to his iron sceptre the countrymen of Kosci ucko and Poniatowski, what is this but Russian interven tion in Po►and ? Here then, we should have the principle of non-intervention, adopted by France and England, vio lated in its essence." Assuming the accountof the Constitutionnel to be correct, how much it is to be regretted that the Emperor Alexander was thwarted by Lord Castle reagh in his views regarding Poland. We well re member the sensation produced by the publication of Lord Castlereagh's letter from Vienna, in which he spoke of the dangerous pretensions of Russia. It was perhaps too readily assumed that Alexander was playing the hypocrite respecting Poland. It is now generally believed that Alexander was then sincere in wishing to restore Poland to indepen deuce. Alexander, like many other weak men, was a very different man at different times. Ile was besides a religious enthusiast, and the strange vicissitudes he had witnessed, strengthened in him the belief that Heaven never allowed nations or in dividuals to profit long, even in this world, by the fruits of crime. He might conceive, therefore, that a judgment would overtake Russia and his own House for the partition of Poland. Whatever may have been the views of the mystical associate of Madame Krudener, if Poland had been united in a separate Sovereignty under the Russian Emperor, the struggle of the Poles at the present time would have been attended with much less difficulty. The following is the account given by the Marquis of Londonderry, in his Narrative of the War in Ger many and France, of the views of Alexander, to which Lord Castlereagh opposed himself : " Many of the sincerest friends of his Imperial Ma jesty regarded with deep anxiety and sorrow the false sys tem which he bad unfortunately adopted. He now de clared his determination of possessing himself irrevocably, in defiance of his Allies and the universal voice of Europe, of almost the whole Duchy of Warsaw ; while he meant to gratify, if possible, his friend the King of Prussia with the kingdom of Saxony. His design was to create all the Polish provinces attached to the Russian empire into a new kingdom, to be called the Kingdom of Poland, and to be governed by the Russian Emperor under a free Con stitution. This measure was viewed in two lights—first, as a mere projsct of Russian aggrandizement, giving her an accession of four millions of subjects, and in fact the keys of Berlin and Vienna; and secondly, as obtaining a complete command over Prussia, and a most dangerous in fluence in Germany, rendering also the former subservient to Russian views as a vassal Power. The King of Prussia, by the above measures, would be driven to compensate the less of his frontiers by a measure extremely unpopular throughout Germany; and under this view the idea of a free Constitution for Poland was considered as a false pretext. It added weight to alleged projects of Russian ambition, by exposing the policy of the Emperor Alexander to the charge of duplicity as regarded his Polish subjects, and of injustice to the King of Saxony. It was, moreover, taking unjust advantage of the King of Prussia, assuming a threatening attitude towards Austria, and undue in fluence over Germany—usurping, in short, a preponderance which might he fatal to Europe. This arrangement was viewed also on the principle that the Emperor of Russia's design, as to giving his new Polish Kingdom a free Con stitution, was sincere ; that he really intended, on the principles he proposed, to erect twelve millions of Poles into a distinct kingdom, and to separate all the Russian- Polish Provinces from the Russian Empire for that pur pose ; to govern that kingdom by a separate Constitution exclusively Polish, viz , a Polish Senate, Polish Chambers of Police nd Finance, and a Polish Army ; all his Rus sian governors, employes, and troops, to be removed within the ancient ►imits of Russia. " In the event of this latter plan succeeding, the dan ger to Europe was considered the same, if not greater, at the moment; but it was compensated by the prospects it held out, that at no distant period, Poland, having ac quired at once freedom and consistency, might, when Alexander was no more, become impatient of sabser viency to a Russian Monarch. In its consequent struggle it might be supported by the neighbouring States in esta blishing its independence, by choosing a Sovereign from among its own hereditary race of Princes. This latter view of the subject caused, I believe, sonic alarm among his Imperial Majesty's Russian subjects, who were sensible of its more than possible danger, and who thought them selves bound in duty to resist in their Monarch a project at once deemed danger ous and eltimerical. It was, how ever, to promote this great event (as a measure of duty early imposed on his conscience, and according to his own creed), that the Emperor was determined to act. For this he was ready to resign all the reputation, character, and glory be had acquired ; to lie no longer considered as the saviour, the pacificator of Europe, but to be looked on as a Monarch, who disregarded treaties and engage. Inuits for an object of atnbition and caprice ; and to incur, finally, the odium of many of his own subjects, and defy the sentiments of Europe." Lord Castlereagh might be justified in putting the worst construction on the motives of the Emperor Alexander ; for his Lordship had never probably seen religion put forward with any other view than to over-reach. If, however, twelve millions of Poles had then been formed into a separate nation, under the Russian Emperor, the independence of Poland would long ere now have been secured. We need not say, that, compared with this, all the patch-work of the Congress of Vienna sinks into insignificance. That Alexander would have succeeded in his object but for England, is beyond a doubt. If the Poles should therefore fail in their glorious endeavours, arid the plains of Warsaw be once more covered by the victims of Russian tyranny and cruelty, it may be said that England, which has incurred her enormous debt in wars for the preservation of an unintelligible balance of power, did nothing to prevent the partition of Poland, but exerted herself to prevent the execution of a design which would infallibly have led to its independence. The Journal des Debats contains an extract of ts private letter from Warsaw, dated 28th December. We have reason to believe, that the views of the writer of this letter are tolerably correct. Well-informed military men laugh at the accounts of large Russian armies ad vancing against the Poles. The most mistaken no tions are entertained in this country of the force which Russia can bring into the field at one time. In the first place, a Russian army is always twice as numerous on paper as in reality, for the Russian ()dicers indemnify themselves for the smallness of their pay by false musters. The Russians are a very good people in many respects; but they are somewhat like the Southsea Islanders of fifty years ago (before the Missionaries had made Methodists of them), who could never see the use of honesty. A Colonel pockets without scruple the pay of five hundred out of a thousand. " The only forces (says the writer) of which Russia can promptly dispose against Poland, are composed of three corps, commanded by Generals Pahlen, Sachet), and Rosen. These three corps united form only one hundred and twenty thousand men. Supposing th em in a condition to op erate t h e i r junction, which is impossible at present, they would not be able to Meastu e their strength with our army supported by the whole nation." We are not, therefore, without hopes. The Poles have a small but an excellent army, well commanded, and they may oppose a larger force to the Russians than the latter can move on any point. Napoleon had a small force compared with that of the Allies, in 1814, but he often gained great advantages over their separate armies, and it was long congidered doubtful whether they would ever reach Pari•.;-- Morning Chronicle. The short time which has now to elapse before the six rioters at Winchester, who lie under sen tence of death, shall perish on the scaffold, unless the mercy of the prerogative interpose between the stern law and its victims, induces us to make one more effort to call fcrth the saving energy of that mercy which is the most beautiful attribute of the Kingly power, and which _ . _ " becomes " The sceptre] Monarch better than his crown." In making this appe a l we but express the feelings and wishes of thousands and thousands of intelligent and considerate people, who have quite as much ab horrence of acts of popular violence and outrage as the few who thirst for sanguinary e xamples. But they object to the taking the lives of these rioters because, in the first place, the law is too severe, and ought not, at a time when the public are looking forward to its amendment, be carried into unrelent ing execution. Because, secondly, the crimes in the present instance have had their origin in deep and extensive distress, and were committed under the influence of ignorance, delusion, and excitement, subsequently to repeated and rain calls upon the Legislature for its interference in the way of inquiry and relief. Because, thirdly, the disturbances, criminal as they were, did not cause the loss of a single life ; and, if those executions take place, all the bloodshed caused by the riots will he on the side of the law. Because, fourthly, public opinion is decidedly against the intended sacrifice of life, and, if the offenders die, they will suffer amid general com miseration, which will extenuate their guilt in consequence of the severity of the atonement. —For these reasons, we say, thousands and thousands of intelligent and considerate people wish the sword of the law, ere its exterminating edge descends, to be averted by the arm of mercy When people are driven to desperation by distress, and that, too, distress against which no foresight could guard them, and from which no industry could protect, their actions may be criminal and dangerous, but they have not the taint of systematic depravity and hardened guilt. When the labouring popula tion rose formerly under the guidance of sueh leaders as a Tyler, a Cade, or a Kett, they avenged their grievances in the blood of their real or supposed oppressors, and, when vanquished, they could but suffer death, like the modem rioters, who had it fre quently in their power to take away life,under feelings of great exasperation, yet refrained, and have not in their last moments to accuse themselves with blood guiltiness towards any one of those whom they re garded as their worst enemies. The suffering and infuriated people have, indeed, in a wonderful man ner, respected the sacredness of life. Let not the laws be so executed as to make them at any future time think lightly of shedding the blood of those who, in the real or fancied character of oppressors, may fall within their power. The lives of the Ex-Minsters of France have been spared ;—the rioters and ma chine-breakers of England are innocence itself com pared with them. Is France to teach us lessons in Christianity and civilization? and is England to re buke the mild spirit of criminal justice in France by giving unjust and unnecessary examples of extermi nation ? We say unjust, because the mitigating circumstances under which the offences have been committed, if taken into the account, would, of themselves, constitute a recommendation to mercy; and we say unnecessary, because the disturbances and machine-breaking (which are quite distinct from the crimes of the incendiaries) are now put down, and the destruction of life will have a greater ten dency to irritate than to pacify. Can there be a more decisive proof of the impolicy of sacrificing life, under such circumstances, than the fact that every place of any importance in the county, where the offences of the Winchester convicts have been perpetrated, have presented petitions for mitigation of punishment—namely, Portsmouth, Ramsey, South ampton, Gosport, Basingstoke, Whitchurch, and other towns; while in London a petition to the same effect was in twenty hours signed by upwards of 6,000 householders ? Can mercy, so advocated, be denied 2—Morning Herald. SPECIAL COMMISSION. AYLESBURY, Jar. 12. Thomas Blizzard, John Moody, Joseph Briant, John Crutch, William Hancock, Samuel mner fteld, William Arthur Wright, Edmund Barton, William Butler, John Sarney, Jas. Barton, Robert Carey, John Dandridge, John East, Thos. Fisher, IVilli~ana Knibhs, Joseph Priest, John Rey nolds, Arthur Salter, William Shi•impton, James Stone, Henry Walker, and Richard Ilicedon, were placed at the bar, indicted for having, on the 29th of November last, unlawfully, riotously, and tumul tuously assembled together, to the disturbance of the public peace, at the mill of Mr. William Robert Davis, at Chipping Wycombe, and with feloniously destroying certain machinery used in the manufac ture of paper in the said mills. All the prisoners are young men or boys, with the exception of Shrimpton, who appears upwards of GO, arid Sarney, who is also advanced in life. The latter has been the keeper of a beer-shop. Mr. GURNEY, in stating the case, observed that the indictment charged the prisoners with having riotously assembled, in company with a great number of other individuals (amounting to several hundreds), and with destroying the machinery of a paper-mill, belonging to the prosecutor. The history of these transactions clearly showed bow such illegal matters proceeded from bad to worse, till checked by the promptitude and resolution of the honest and well disposed part of the community. Yesterday the Jury had heard a narrative of the events that occurred in the neighbourhood of Wycombe, in the beginning of the day on the 29th November; it would now become their duty to listen to an account of some of the concluding transactions of that day,when the civil power, having assembled in greater strength than previously, was enabled to disperse the mob, and take many of the individuals composing it into custody, although unfortunately they did not succeed in preserving Mr. Davis's ma chinery. The Learned Gentleman here recapitu lated the !proceedings of the mob, from the period of its assembling at Wycombe marsh, on the morn in;; of the 29th of November, till its dispersion at Mr. Davis's manufactory on the evening of that day. After mentioning the places visited, and the several outrages committed by it, Mr. Gurney observed, that the mob had not preceeded so far as the mill of Mr. Davis, without encountering some interruption. The High Sheriff attempted to put down the riot in concert with some Magistrates, but without suc cess. The Riot Act was twice read, and every effort made to disperse this dangerous assemblage, but for some time the attempt was unavailing. When the mob reached the pro.ecutor's mill, every possible resistance was offered to its progress by some gentlemen and special constables, who were present, and attempted to protect the mill and ma chinery. These individuals were attacked by the mob in a most brutal and desperate manner; one part of the rioters succeeding in breaking into and destroy ing the mill, while another was employed in opposing the civil power, and preventing their com panions from experiencing any interruption in the performance of their illegal task. In whichever of these parties individual prisoners might have been, their crime was the same. It was not necessary that a man should be proved to have committed acts of violence with hi!, own hands upon such an occa sion ; whoever was present with the mob, swelling its force and terror, and lending it the assistance uf his countenance and support, was equally guilty as if he had destroyed the machinery, or personally resisted the civil power. Several of the prisoners would be identified as having been employed in breaking the machinery or resisting the magistrates. There was one, James Stone, who he understood was not a-native of this county ; however, he be lieved the prisoner did not leave his home for the purposes of outrage, but with a different object. It would seem, nevertheless, that he had lent himself to the advice or persuasion of others, and that he took part in those unlawful transactions. Evidence was then adduced, after which the Jury returned a verdict acquitting William Butler, Barton, R. Carey, J. East, T. Fiber, A. Salter, J. Stone, and H. Walker, and finding the others Guilty. The jury recommended the prisoners to mercy. Charles Clement, James Chapman, William Seals, James Stapps, Charles Barnett, Henry Wetherell, Richard Water; field, John Coleshill, and Willianz Evans, were indicted for having riotously assembled, on the Ist of December, to disturb the King's peace ; and being so assembled, did beat and ill treat John Godliman, in the parish of Iver. The three last prisoners were also charged with having feloniously stolen 2s. from the person of Mary Lake, on the King's high road. John Godliman examined.—ls a labourer in the employment of Mr. Allen, at Iver. Remembers ten people coming to his master's farrn•house on the Ist of December last, about eleven o'clock in the morning. Some of them were armed with sticks. They said they were going to raise their wages, and wanted prisoner to go with them. Wit ness refused, and then William Seals and Charles Barnett collared him. The other prisoners were in the yard at the time witness was collared. Witness siru2gled, and his shirt and waistcoat were torn off his back. John Coleshill pushed witness behind, and said he must go with them. The prisoner after wards went away. Cross-examined by Mr. BLIGII —Knew the pri soners a long time. They were all very drunk; and they tried to persuade witness in a friendly way to go with them. When his shirt was torn, one of the prisoners went off to get him a fresh one. - Miss Lake examined—Lives near Iver. Was returning on the Ist of December last from the town of Iver, when she, met a dozen or fourteen persons together. They had sticks in their hands. When they came near, she left the footpath, but they crossed over the road after her, and said they wanted money, and money they would have. She told them that if they behaved with civility she would give them some. She was alarmed, and gave them 2s. The man who received the money was called Coleshill. The occurrence took place about noon. The spot where witness met these people was about 200 yards distant from Mr. Allen's house. Knows a person named Church. He was close to witness when these persons came up to her. William Church—Lives at lver. Identified Coles hill, Evans, and Wakefield, as the persons who stopped Miss Lake. They also asked for money from him. Evans was standing by the side of Miss Lake with his hat off. Mr. Baron BOLLAND charged the Jury, who found all the prisoners guilty of riot, and acquitted them of the charge of assault. Wakefield, Coleshill, and Evans were acquitted on an indictment for robbing Miss Lake, no evidence being offered in support of the charge. Adjourned at half-past seven till nine o'clock to morrow morning. DORCHESTER, JAx. 11. The Grand Jury had not been long out of Court, when they returned with a true bill against James ll'iMing, who was immediately Fut on his trial. The business of this Commission will, it is pro bable, not occupy the time of their Lordships be yond Thursday. There are not moro than 50 per sons to lie tried. Of these, several have two or three indictments against them. These, if pressed, will swell the calendar to the same extent as if 18 prisoners were added. The number of indictments to be sent before the Grand Jury, does not, we are informed, exceed 26. The crimes are chiefly rob bery, breaking machines, and riot. There is one charge of rescuing prisoners who were in custody for felony at Shaftesbury. The dates of the offences range from the 23d of November to the Ist of De cember, both inclusive. The dates of the offences in the three counties are worthy of remark, as they tend to negative any notion of previous concert amongst the rioters of the three counties which was at first believed. In Hampshire the dates of the disturbances ranged from the lath to the 26th of November, both included ; but the greater number and the most serious riots and acts of outrage were on the 22d and 23d. In Wiltshire they ranged from the 20th to the 27th, the greatest num ber being on the 24th and 25th ; but in that county there were several on the 23d. In this county, as we have stated, the dates are from the 23d of November to the Isr of December. There were a few acts of machine-breaking and robbery on the 2:3d ; but the greatest number of riots took place on Saturday, the 27th, and Monday-, the 29th of No vember. It would appear from these dates that the riots in Wilts and Dorset were rather the conse quence of the accounts which reached those places of the disturbances in Hants than of any previous concert. JOHN THOMAS COOPER. Soon after the Grand Jury retired, Mr. W. C. ROWE stated that he was instructed to apply to the Court to order the recognizances of certain witnesses to be discharged. An indictment had been preferred, against John Thomas Cooper (the prisoner now under sentence of death in Win chester gaol, and who is to die on Saturday) for having taken an active part in the riots in this county. The man being already under sentence of death, the prosecutor did not intend to send the Bill to the Grand Jury; he therefore now applied to have the recognizances of the witnesses dis charged. The Court granted the application. As soon as the Grand Jury had found bills, Mr. Justice ALDEnsoN retired to the Crown Court, to try prisoner. there. James Wilkins, aged 22, was indicted for robbing William Henry Moyle of 8.. 6d., his property. It appeared that the prisoner, accompanied by nine or ten persons, went to the house of the pro secutor on the night of the 23d of November. They were armed with sticks, and threatened him if he did not give them money. He gave the prisoner Bs. 6d., being in fear of some personal outrage, for the prisoner had raised his stick up and struck the paling with great violence. They then demanded victuals and drink, which they used in part, and threw the rest away.—The Jury found him Guilty. John Read, aged 24, was indicted for robbing John Brewer of three sovereigns. —The prisoner was found Guilty. Time. Thorne, 30 ; Adam Thorne, 21 ; Abraham House, 22 ; James !rouse ; 24; and John Stuart, 22, were put to the bar, charged with having, on the 26th of November, destroyed a threshing machine, the property of William Coward. The prisoners had not a good character. The Jury found the prisoners Guilty, but recommended them to mercy. James House—My Lord, I hope you will have mercy on me for the sake of my wife and children, who have no other friend. (The prisoner had stated in the course of the trial that he had two, and almost three children.) Mr. Baron VAUGHAN—You should have con sidered what might have been the consequence to your wife and children before you engaged in out rages of this kind. Prisoner—My Lord, we should not have n one if the mob had not made us go ; and, my Lord, there was a gentleman rode through (he mentioned the name of the village, which we did not collect), a few days before, who said his name was Mr. Hunt, and who told us that Government wished the people to break machines, and that they slsould be paid for their trouble. The prisoners were not sentenced, as there Ivere several other charges against them. Joseph Pope, aged 57, was indicted for robbing Richard 13i-wicker, Esq., of 65., his property. Mr. lironcker said the prisoner was one of a mob of 300 or 400 persons, who were out machine breaking. He came up with three others to wit ness, at 'one of whose tenant's houses a machine was broken. Pope said—" I am Colonel Hunt's serjeant, and I must have money." Witness refused to give any; but the men said they must have it, and he gave it under the impression that some mis chief would be done to his house if he refused. He understood, that by Colonel Hunt was meant Mr. Henry Hunt, the blacking-maker. His reason for so believing was, that he heard of Mr. Huat having been at Salisbury and at Andover, and was at the head of the mobs there. Mr. Baron VAUGIIAN—Don't you know that a person who assumed the name of Hunt was very active in the riots in the next county ?—Mr. Broncker—l did not know it then, my Lord ; but I know it now, and I believe that that person was the Colonel Hunt whom the prisoner meant. The prisoner said that he went out along with some of his neighbours to see the mob that came out of Fordingbridge, and he was pressed by them and dragged on for a long way, and threatened with death if lie refused to go. He would not have gone but for that compulsion. He hoped the Court would consider him for the sake of his wife and 12 children. There were several persons (amongst others the Clergyman of his parish) to give him a good character, but they had not come. A gentleman in Court corroborated this state ment as respected the Clergyman of the prisoner's parish. The Judge summed up, and the Jury found him Guilty. Mr. Baron VAUGIIAN, after dwelling on the enor mity of the offence of which the prisoner had been convicted, stated, that though his life would be spared, he must not hope that any further mitiga tion of his punishment would take place. He must not expect to be allowed to remain in this country. The Court adjourned at half -past six o'clock to nine o'clock to-morrow. Stephen Hatcher, aged 58, James Davidge, 24, Robert neller, 46, and Thomas Vow'lls, 22, were indicted for destroying a threshing-machine, the property of Matthew Hunt. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners. Mr. Justice ALDERSON then addressed the pri soners to the following effect :—" You have all been convicted of felony in breaking a threshing-machine the property of Matthew Hunt. You, Stephen Hatcher, have been proved to be the leader of the mob, and you refuted to be contented when he told you that his threshing-machine had been taken to pieces. What right, I would ask, had you to de stroy his property, when he stated to the mob that he wished to use his capital in a different manner ? (The Learned Judge then sentenced S. Hatcher to be transported for seven years.) As to you, Da vidge and Vowells, who were not quite so active in the late riots, the sentence is, that you be impri soned in the house of correction and kept to hard labour for twelve calendar months. As for you, R. Wilder, the sentence of the law will be mitigated to you in great lenity, that you be imprisoned and kept to hard labour in the house of correction for the space of four calendar months. James Rymond, aged 28, was indicted for break ing and destroying a threshing-machine, the pro perty of Stephen Wash.— the Jury found the pri soner Guilty. Mr. Stephen Welsh, the prosecutor, said, that he knew nothing of the prisoner. Prisoner did not be long to the parish of Farnham. He was a farming servant. Henry Elkins, aged 34, George Elkins, 24, George Elkins the younger, 18, and William .11toore, 18, were indicted for destroying a threshing-machine, the property of David Gillingham. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners. - Air. Justice ALDERSON then proceeded to pass sentence upon the prisoners found guilty on the last charge, and also upon James Rymond. He addressed them as follows :—" You, Henry Elkins, and you, George Elkins, this is not the first time in which you have appeared in a Court of Justice. You have both been imprisoned in the House of Correction for the space of three calendar months, and no longer ago than the last Lent assizes one of you was admitted King's evidence in _ a case of burglary. Here you have been convicted of felony. There Can only be one conclusion in your case, and that is, that you be transported for seven years. As for you Rymond, the sentence of the Court is, that you be imprisoned in the House of Correction, and kept to hard labour for the space of two years. As to you, 'William Moore, you must expect a severe sentence, and that sentence is, that you be imprisoned in the House of Correction, and kept to hard labour for eighteen months. As for you, George Elkins the younger, nothing against you has yet come to our knowledge. You are yet young; and one is anxious to find grounds for extending mercy to a person like you. He was was then sentenced to imprisonment in the House of Correction for six calendar months. Stephen Hatcher was convicted of breaking another threshing-machine ; but there was nothing of interest in the case._ _ __ The Court adjourned at half-past six o'clock. EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE of FELONY. A charge of felony was yesterday brought under the notice of the sitting Magistrates at Lambeth street police-office, out of which arose some singular disclosures, and in the hearing of which considerable time was occupied. '1 he facts, which will .be found of a somewhat extraordinary character, are these :—On Friday evening last, INliss H., a young woman moat re spectably connected, who had been stopping some weeks previously at the house of Mr. T., an exten sive mercer and draper, carrying on business in the parish of St. George's-in-the-East, was brought be fore Mr. NlTyarr, on a charge of having stolen a valuable muff and tippet belonging to Mrs. T. It being then alleged that various other articles of pro perty were missing, and the necessary witnesses to complete the charge not being in attendance, the accused was remanded for further examination until yesterday. The pain which she felt at the degrada tion of her situation preyed most sensibly upon her mind, and at the New Prison, Clerkenwell, where she was confined, she wt.; scarcely seen to utter a syllable to any of the prisoners with whom she was confined ; but spent her time in walking about, in apparently the utmost mental uneasiness and anxiety. In this state she continued until Monday morning, when taking advantage of the absence of her fellow prisoners, she suspended herself with her handkerchief from the iron bar., anti when discovered and cut down, life to all appearance was quite extinct. How ever, by the prompt application of some powerful r e storatives and other remedies, animation was re stored, and she afterwards 6o far recovered a s t o b e able to be removed to this office at the time ap pointed. On being brought before the M ag i strates, Mr. ilanDwlcK humanely pointed out to her the attempt. cmo much q s ; 0 , 1; 1 ,1 : 7 : : Ai %,), it ; which f h on i I c i.) h pwe Ea : ar appeared g ds h hm t e uhrceahsdudl affected, f e r , o b m expressed r re r s a sed h lit said she was quite innocent of . the offence laid to her charge, for that, instead of stealing the articles, as had been alleged, they had been made a present to her by Mrs. T. Mrs. T. denied that this mu the fact, and de clared she had never given the prisoner either the muff °l.tippet. Mr.ll:kimmcii questi one d Mi ss H. as to whether any thing particular had passed at the time the pre sent was maue 2—Miss H. replied that she could not recollect ; but that Mrs. 'J'„ having acquainted her (111iss H.) w i t h a ll her secrets, an d a dmitted her without reserve into her confidence, for this it was she thought the present had been made her of the articles in question. A htdv, a friend of the accused, here came for ward, and stated on oath that Miss H. had informed her of receiving the present from Mrs. T., and she afterwards accompanied Niiss H. to that lady's house with the *ame muff and tippet on. The wit ness added, that this took place after Mrs. T. had returned to her' husband's house, subsequent to her , elopement. Mr. and Mrs. T. affected much indignation 811 d I surprise at this insinuation, and asked the witness what she meant by theexpression of Mrs. T.'s elor meat ? The witness replied, that they surely could not he' ignorant of its meaning, They, however, still ap peared to evince a total ignorance on the subjec t' and begged the Magistrat e s wo u ld requ i re an exPa" nation from the witness of the insinuation which she made, and which was to them of a most u npleasan t nature. . Mr. EIARDwicK, in consequence, requested that the of might he explained. On which Miss I L stood forward, and with some hesitation stated th at Mrs. T. had left her h us b an d' s h ouse a b o ut Chr ist" mac last, and went to live at the Portugal Hotel, Fleet -street, but after stopping there a few daY 6 ' she attempted *to commit suicide by swallowing $ dose of poison, and on this circumstance coming t° lwr husband's knowledge, he at once removed bet home. • Mr. and Mrs. T., in the most solemn manner, declared that there was not a tittle of truth in this statement, which they said must have been got ' lll merely for the purpose of intimidating them from coming forward to prosecute. Mr. T. assured th e Magistrates that during the eight years which he wa g married, his wife had never, even for one night slept from under his roof. M rs . T. a l so declared' that she never, to her knowledge, slept at an hotel, and that as for the Portugal, she knew no more where it wa , than her infant child of three months old. Mr. HARDWICK, finding the parties so pertior ciously positive, questioned Miss H. more closely 11 : the subject, and asked her if she spoke of Mrs. being at the Portugal from her own knowledge, v* if she had made the statement merely from she bad heard from others ?—Miss H. replied th at i she spoke from her own kn o wl e d ge , f or th a t she 1111 : visited Mrs. T. at that hotel three different tin 4 ; while she was there ; and th at a f ter h er husbaa's had taken her away from there, she, Miss H., het: self paid the bill which she had incurr e d, a nd which amounted to 2/. 18s. This fact, as well as rali T.'s being there, could be proved by the waiters and chambermaid there. Mr. T. requested that the case might be postpon ed to a future day, when he would be able to pro ee ' both by his own servants, and those at the Vogt' gal-hotel, the utter fallacy of these statements. Mr. HaßDvetcx replied, that the case had O s assumed an aspect which, in justice to all partic 6 required further investigation, and for that puspo is lie would remand the accused until Friday. On the application of Mr. Wooler, who s t* tended at the request of her (death, Miss H. W II6 admitted to bail to appear on that day. Independent of the above singular incideti O there are several others connected with this ca ge which are worthy of remark. Miss H. has r af ,, some time been paid addresses to by a gentle's; who was formerly an officer in the Royal Navy, b d ., is at present Captain of a West Indiaman, and a dsi was some time since fixed for their marriage. short time before the arrival of the day namedP g German Baroness, of considerable property, f e 4 violently in love with the brother of Miss H., ' 1 "( another day was appointed for the celebration c' the nuptials of both couples, and that day was 136 t Wednesday. The necessary forms of publishing banns, &c., was gone through at St. George's church; Hanover-square, where the ceremony was to ha y . o taken place. It is, however, for the present, 1„ consequence of the present " untoward e vent , deferred." ?4,4 ol o4: 7 :;l2s t t h i e ti i i r t E i ß o j a , I°l 4 l . DISP.
