A SONG TO DAVID. BY CHRISTOPHER SMART, 11.4. -pp. 55. This is a very singular Poem, strong and vigour ous throughout, occasionally sublime, but more fre quently absurd.. Its author was an Oxford man, who died somewhere about the close of the last century. He was for many years confined in a mad-house, where the use of pen and ink being denied him, he contrived to indent this " Song to David," with a key in the wall. The poem, there fore, which has been but lately discovered, may be considered no slight curiosity. We give the follow ing extract from it :—(an apostrophe to Jehovah) and question whether English poetry possesses a passage of more striking and concentrated sub limity : Tell them I am, Jehovah said To Moses, while earth heard in dread, And smitten to the heart ; At once above, beneath, around, All nature without voice or sound, Replied, Oh Lord ! Thou art. THE LOVER'S BALANCE SHEET. LENT ASSIZES. KINGSTON, SATURDAY, MARCH 7. THE VAUXHALL-ROAD COINERS. This case, from the length of time the illegal traffic has been carried on, and consequently the very ex tensive circulation of base and counterfeit coin, has excited very great interest; so much so, that not withstanding the early hour at which Mr. Justice Littledale (eight o'clock this morning), took his seat in Court, for several hours previous the whole town, and its neighbouring population, surrounded the Court-house, all anxious for the opening of the doors, that it was with extreme difficulty that those who attended professionallv,and as witnesses, could make their entrance • and had it not been for the grea t ex ertion of the Officers of the Court, it would have been entirely filled by those who were merely actuated by a feeling of curiosity. Daniel Buckley, Jeremiah Andrea's, and Daniel Pycroft, were severally indicted for feloniously and traitorously coining at Lambeth, four counterfeit so vereigns, one hundred counterfeit half-sovereigns, one hundred counterfeit half-crowns, one hundred counterfeit shillings, and one hundred counterfeit sixpences. For the prosecution appeared Mr..llLtßaveT, Mr. GURNEY, Mr. BOLLAND, and Mr. LAW.—For the defence, Mr. ADOLPHUS, Mr. ANDREWS, and Mr. BRODERICK. Mr. BOLLAND having opened the proceedings, Mr. GURNEY addressed the Jury at very con siderable length, in which he observed, that the crime with which the prisoners were charged was that of High Treason, and its extent exceeded all former depredations that ever occupied the time of a Court of Justice. The prisoners, Buckley and Andrews, had for a very considerable length of time been narrowly watched by the officers of the Mint and Police ; the prisoners had three establishments, one in Shelton-lane, Greenwich, another in Glouces ter-place, Vauxhall, arid another at Tiverton-row, Newington ; at the latter place the prisoners were apprehended. The extent of their traffic was such, that they used frequently to send from their different houses the enormous number of counterfeit coin that would by circulation amount to 100/. in a week. The material used was sheet brass, and as an excuse for purchasing so largely of it, the prisoners stated they had a contract with Government, to supply a certain portion of the harness for the First Regiment of Life Guards. The prisoner Buckley, was ob served leaving the house in Gloucester -street, with a small hand-basket, which was apparently empty, and repair to the house in Tiverton-row, and after wards returned with it apparently heavily laden. The officers of the Mint, assisted by the officers of Hatton-, garden Police-office, followed him, and on entering the last house, found the wife of Buckley and Mary Ann Patrick, with an immense quantity of counter feit coin, resembling crowns, half-crowns, shillings, and sixpences. The learned Counsel, after detail ing minutely the facts of the case, then concluded by stating, thiit if any doubt existed as to the guilt of the parties, he trusted the benefit of that doubt would be given to the prisoners. William Joseph Powell deposed, that in conse quence of information, he went on the 23d Decem ber last, about two o'clock in the day, to No. 8, Gloucester-street, Vauxhall-road, accompanied by six police officers; they obtained admittance, some by the entrance to that house, and some by the next house; ion entering, his party found the prisoners in the cus tody of the other officers, and on going into the back kitchen, they found several dies and the bed of a press. On the block of the press were 4 collars for graining the edges of the half-crowns; one of the officers (Limbrick) took possession of the different dies. In the same kitchen there was a fire-place and two recesses, which were stuffed with dung and straw, as was the chimney. Witness then went into the back parlour, where he found a turning lathe and bench, ie a working state. On the bench he disco vered two dies for half-sovereigns, and several tools necessary for the finishing of base coin. In a cup board of the same room was a large quantity of coun terfeit shillings and sixpences. Upon a further exa mination of the cupboard, he found the flooring to have been removed, and, on taking it up, he there found counterfeit coin of every description, to the number of many hundreds, and under the floor in the room was discovered a number of dies; the whole of the counterfeit coin, dies, and the different implements, were given into the custody of the officers ; in a room on the second floor was discovered alarge basket, con taining counterfeit half-crowns; the house did not ap pear to he occupied, but used as a manufactory; on the prisoner B tickley being apprehended in the presence of Andrews he said lie hoped the witness would be as mer ciful to him as possible; on Limbrick searching Buck ley, he said there was no occasion for such an act, as there was quite sufficient in the house to hang him ; he had on his person between '2Ol. and 301. of good money ; witness then went with some of the officers to No. 23, Tiverton -street, Newington-causeway, and on entering the parlour, found Mary Ann Buck ley and her two sons ; they searched the house, and on the first floor, found Mary Ann Patrick sitting by the window, and a table before her, on which was upwards of 2,000 counterfeit shillings; some made up in packages, with silver paper be tween each coin; on searching Patrick, they found about 6/. good money upon her; in the adjoining room was found a screw of the press machine under the bed ; Mrs. Buckley and Patrick were taken into custody; witness then went to No. 2, Shelton-lane, Greenwich, accompanied by two officers and his father; on entering the house, they observed a per son of the name of Walker, in his shirt sleeves ; they found some plain die blocks, some jewel die blocks, and a machine for the purpose of cutting blanks from solid brass sheets,the remnants of which are now produced; several hundred blanks were also found, and a forge and bellows; witness took an account in writing of the different tools and implements found in the three houses occupied by the prisoners; it is the one now produced ; on the followin g day they found several casts of iron re sembling half sovereigns. J ohn Limbrick, one of the Hatton-garden police officers, corroborated the whole of the last wit ness's ev i dence, an d produced the dies, collars, press, 1,18 0 counter feit half crowns, ready for cir culation,Ovs iaxupxehnaclehsr,oaardi dshillings 1,200 paraphernalia form also ready for circulation, taken from th e house ll fou G r sovereigns, Gloucester-street, et 4, a complete set of coinin g material s. Thomas Carter, officer of the Thames P o li ce Office, deposed that he w as the first oflic er w h o en tered th e h ouse in Gloucester - street; he saw Buck ley at work at the coining p ress, whi le he (witness) s ° 2 was on the garden wall ; on seeing witness he en deavoured to make his escape, by concealing him self und er th e flooring. Kirby, Carter, Mitchell, and Edwards, confirmed the whole of the above evidence, and added, that they took the prisoners Buckley and Andrews, on board of the prison ship P ort Mahon—when the forme r prisoner asked where h e should die, and said that he had bought a coffin; and that,had he and his compa n i ons not been discovered for three months, they intended to have discontinued the practice. Th omas Fogg confirmed the conversation stated by the last witness; no inducement was held out to them. Alexander Mitchell, principal officer on board the Port Mahon convict ship, deposed that the two prisoners, Buckley and Andrews, were brought on , board the vessel; on being asked their names, Buckley gave his as Simmons, and Andrews that of Ward. On the following morning, Buckley said that he had given a false name, to save his brother, who was a respectable tradesman at Birmingham ; and Andrews said, that he had done the same to keep his woman out of difficulty; they inquired whether any other parties were apprehended, and on being answered in the affirmative, and that the officers were gone to Greenwich, they both replied that there would be nothing found there. Andrews said he had worked hard for half a crown in the pound. On his (witness) pleading ignorance of his meaning, he said that as soon as a " pound " was sold, he got half a crown ; they gave .Fl-1 base shillings for a pound, and that the metal in each pound cost 3s. Gd.; and after all expenses were paid, the profit was but 2s. 6d. He meant to have carried on the trade three months longer, and then have set up a coal-shed. John Ellege deposed, that he was employed by Mr. Powell to watch the prisoners and their houses ; on the 23d of September he observed a cart at the house in Gloucester-street; being loaded he followed it to Tiverton-street, where it stopped, and was un loaded by Buckley and Andrews; he afterwards took a - house opposite, in order to watch the pre mises; the prisoner Pycroft inhabited the house, and was frequently visited by Buckley and Andrews, who repeatedly brought heavy loads in small bas kets ; Buckley's wife and Mary Ann Patrick also frequently called, each having a small reticule basket, and on leaving the house the baskets appeared very heavy; they frequently,let themselves in with a key. A number of other witnesses were examined, whose united evidence fully substantiated the charge against the prisoners. The prisoner Buckley said, in his defence, that he had been employed as a mechawic, by jewellers and watchmakers, and that the tools which were found in the house where he was apprehended, were such as were used in the jewellery and watchmaking business. The prisoner Andrews said, in substance, that he had been merely employed by Buckley to go of errands, but had nothing to do with the business of coining. The prisoner Pycroft said, he was wholly inno cent of the crime imputed to him, and that the pri soner Buckley, who was his brother-in-law, finding him in a state of great. distress, had employed him to go of errands, and he proposed to call a witness to his character. The prisoner Buckley then handed in a paper,' purporting to be an affidavit, made by a Mr. W. H. Inglis. stating, in substance, that the deponent had employed Counsel for the prisoners, and had de sired a consultation with three Barristers, the night before; that he had drawn up three statements for a consultation, and that the Barristers alluded to had met on the Friday, but had declined yielding to the view which he h'ad taken of the case, and refused to argue the points which he proposed to be dis cussed, upon the construction of the stat. 59 Geo. 111. c. 49, s. 10. This affidavit being read by the Officer of the Court, Mr. ANDREWS, Mr. ADOLPHUS, and Mr. Dow- LING, the Barristers alluded to, severally interposed and said it was certainly true that Mr. highs had desired a consultation, with a view to the considera tion of such points as could be tuged with any ad vantage to the prisoners, and they had accordingly assembled for that purpose on the night preceding ; but finding that the view which Mr. Inglis took of the case was not only untenable but unintelligible, he was told that they could not pretend to argue propositions to which they could not apply their un derstandings with any advantage to the prisoners. They had, however, told Mr. Inglis, that if he would ' propound any intelligible proposition, referable to the offence with which the prisoners were charged, they would argue it to the best of their abilities : and, with that view, they invited him to state on paper what it was he wished to be argued, and which they could argue without stultifying their own understandings. No such question was propounded, and, therefore, the consultation was broken up with out any useful result. Confessing their own ilia= bility to understand Mr. Inglis's view of the case, all that they could do was, to direct the attention . of the Learned Judge to the Statute 59 Gee. 111. c. 49, sec. 10, and then hand i❑ a printed paper, published by Mr. Inglis, called " A Defence of Forgery of Gold and Silver Money ;" and, if his Lordship felt the force of the argument, as applied to this ease, it would afford them great satisfaction, as far as the interests of tke unhappy men at the bar were concerned. The attention of the Learned Judge was then directed to the following clause of the Act in ques tion, and the paper following it was handed up to the bench. " And, whereas, the laws now in force against melting and exporting the gold and silver coin of the realm have been fbund ineffectual, and it is expedient that the traffic in gold and silver should be unrestrained ; be it, therefore en acted, that from and after the passing of this Act, it shall gold and m or r silver l e a coin for n of the eypersonrealm or persons t o parts beyondth o tseas,be and also to melt the gold and silver coin of the realm, and to manufacture or export, or otherwise dispose of the gold or silver bullion produced thereby, and no person who shall export or melt such gold or silver coin, or who shall manufacture, export, or dispose of such bullion, shall he subject to any restriction, forfeiture, pains, penalty, in capacity, or disability whatever, for or in respect of such inciting, manufacturing, or exporting the same respec tively ; any thing in any Act or Acts in force in Great Britain or Ireland to the contrary thereof in anywise not withstanding." A DEFENCE OF FORGERY OF GOLD AND SILVER MONEY. " And it is expedient that the traffic in gold and silver bullion should be unrestrained."—Section 10. " Let it be premised that in the Act of Parliament, en titled 52 Geo. 3. cap. 49, date 2d July 1819, the 10th and 13th sections use the word Coin instead of Money, which term is employed in the I 1 th section of such Act; wherefore, not to stop about Coin made from various materials, it may either mean the stamped metals named Money, or those denominated Medals. It follows that, to manufacture the Coin of the realm may not be to make the Money of the realm. _ " Now, by the tenth section of the above Act, which allows money to be melted into bullion, there appears that it ' shall and may be' lawful to ' manufacture, or export, or otherwise dispose of bullion ; which is to say, without limitation, in respect to the money of t he realm ; indeed, there is s u bj o i ne d ' an ythi ng in any Great Britain or Ireland to a ltered,' or contradicted, v the contrary Actor Acts there i o n f fionrceiney Act e againstrel rany wise notwithstandin e g ; pealed accordingly, by this confirmatory part,e every is ' xpss ful money of the realm. " Moreover, . „ the 13th section of the above Act p ro hibi ts a debasement of mo ne y after its manufacture or c oinage, but not during th at o p eration ; the appro p riate w ords are ' 13. Provide d alwa y s, and be it further en acted, that nothing in this Act contain e d shall extend or b e construed t o extend to repeal or alter any Act or A cts, or any part of any Act or Ac ts, in force in Great Brit a i n or Ireland, so y cou nterfe iting,o alias imitating, the law far as the same relate to the prevention, detection, or punishment of the offences of clipping, washing, rounding, filing, impairing, diminishing, falsifying, sealing, or lighten ing of the lawful coin of the realm, or to the inflicting any pain, penalty, or forfeiture, on any person guilty of buying or selling, or knowingly having in their custody any clip pings or filings of such coin.' " It rests to be explained, that the 13th section of the above Act concludes as follows :—' And that all the powers, authorities, rules, regulations, and provisions in the said several Acts contained, shall continue and be in force with relation to the e xportation of any molten silver or bullion whatsoever, which, before the melting thereof, was clip pings of the coin of the realm, and in all other respects whatever, e xcept only so far as the same are expressly re pealed or altered by this Act, any thing in any Act before contained to the contrary in any wise notwithstanding.' Yet here the phrase, • a n d i n all 0tg1i:4.414a.4.;tii. wha..ever, is controlled by the phrase 'except only to far as the same are expressly repealed or altered by this Act,' whilst this phrase governs the final phrase any thing in any Act before contained to the contrary in any wise not withstanding; wherefore the above-mentioned phrase, ex cept only so far as the same are expressly repealed or al tered by this Act' confirms that part of the 10th section, which says, at some length, and no person who shall ex port or melt such gold or silver coin, or who shall manu facture, export, or dispose of such bullion, shall be subject to any restriction, forfeiture, pain, penalty, incapacity, or disability whatever, for or in respect of such melting, ma nufacturing, or exporting the same respectively. Thus the 10th and 13th sections contradict or negative the an cient laws with reference to counterfeiting, alias imitating, the lawful' money of the realm, and particularly those mentioned in the 12th section ; whereas, if the 10th and 13th sections had made no allusions to the manufacture of bullion and clippings, &c. of money, but bad been con fined to melting money into bullion, and permitting the exportation of this commodity, then would such ancient laws have remained in force, which, at present, they have ceased to do." Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE was clearly of opinion that the Act of Parliament alluded to had nothing whatever to do with the present case. That statute did not repeal the former Acts against forging and counterfeiting the coin of the realm. It was true that it authorised the melting of gold and silver coin, and the manufacturing or exporting the gold and silver bullion produced by such process of melting; but it did not authorise any private individual to coin the bullion again into money, to the likeness and simi litude of the coin of the realm ; still less did it au thorise the manufacture of base metal into money, to the likeness and similitude of the coin of the realm. Mr. INGLIS begged to be heard, as an amicza curia', upon the point. Mr. GURNEY protested against such irregularity. Mr. LITTLEDALE called up Mr. Atkinson, of the Mint, who said, in answer to his Lordship's questions, that the coin produced in evidence via; composed of base metal, and that possibly there might be the 20th part of a grain of silver admixed with the spurious metal of which the counterfeit coin was composed. Mr. INGLIS interposed, and said, that this admit sion on the part of the monier made out his case, and brought the prisoners within the protection of the Act of Parliament in question. Mr. GuRNEY said he never heard such stuff, and advised Mr. Inglis not to try the experiment in his own person. Mr. INGLis said that every merchant he had con versed with upon the subject concurred with him in his construction of the Act of Parliament, and he complained that the prisoners' Counsel refused to plead the statute. Mr. GURNEY—They have used their good sense. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE repeated that the Act of Parliament had nothing whatever to do with the present case. _ _ - Mr. INGLIS then desired that the point should be reserved for the opinion of the twelve Judges. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE said, there Wag no point to reserve. None of the prisoners called any witnesses except Pycroft, who produced a journeyman mechanic to his charactor, by whom he was spoken of as an in dustrious hardworking man. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE then summed up the case for the jury, and pointed out to their attention, that the evidence against Pycroft was not so strong' as it respected the other prisoners, and he left them to consider whether that prisoner was brought satis factorily to their minds within the scope of the indictment. The Jury, after a short deliberation, acquitted Pycroft, and found the other prisoners Guilty. The other indictments against the prisoners for high treason were not prosecuted, and acquittals upon them were taken in favour of Pycroft. Mary Ann, the wife of Joseph Patrick, Mary Ann, the wife of Daniel Buckley, and Darliot Pycroft, were then indicted for a misdemeanour, in having procured 500 pieces of counterfeit money, to the likeness and similitude of the good and lawful shillings of the realm, with intent to utter them. To this indictment Mary Ann Patrick pleaded " guilty," and the other prisoners pleaded " not guilty." It was proved in this case, that when the house, No. 22, Tiverton-street, Newington-causeway, was searched, the prisoner Patrick was fo un d sitting at a table with a heap of two or three thousand coun terfeit shillings before her. The question then was, whether the other prisoners were brought within the scope of the indictment, as having procured the same money, with intent to utter it ? Mr. ADOLPHUS (with whom was Mr. Do LING) addressed the jury, and contended that there was no evidence of Mary Ann Buckley and Pycroft having procured the money in question, with intent to utter it : and that, assuming them to have possession, still the bare possession, without some act showin g an intention to utter, would render them liable to punishment. The Jury, under the learned JUDGE'S direction, found Mary Ann Buckley and Pycroft Not Guilty. The Court sentenced Mary Ann Patrick to six months' imprisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction. Daniel Buckley and Jeremiah Andrews were then put to the bar to receive sentence. The learned JUDGE told them, in an impressive manner, that the heinous offence of which they had been found guilty called for the execution of the highest penalty known to the law, and, therefore, he conjured them not to indulge any hopes of mercy on this side the grave. His Lordship concluded by passing the sentence in the usual form in cases of high treason. The prisoners, who were in the most miserable attire, did not appear much moved by their painful situation. _ . _ --- The iiusiness of the Crown side finished on Satur day evening, with the assistance of M r .

[BRIGHTON PAPER.] POPULATION OF CIIINA.---44 In 1818, ac cording to the last census, the population of China within the Great Wall amounted to 148,000,000 of souls, who occupy only a surface of 700,000 square leagues. The army was composed of 1,288,000 xnen—nanaely, 830,000 foot, 420,000 horse, and 33,000 marine•. The revenues of the State, in 1817, amounted to 79,600 leang, or 477,600,000 of our money, in gold, silver, or the pro duce of the country. In China, a part of the revenue is paid in corn, which is deposited in the public granaries, and which is preserved from one year to another." An Arab Shaikh or chief; who lived within fifty miles of Bussorab, had a favourite breed of horses. He lost one of his best mares, and could 'not for a long time discover whether she was stolen or had strayed. Some time afterwards, a young man of a different tribe, who had long wished to marry his daughter, but had always been rejected by the Shaikh, obtained the lady's consent, and eloped with her. The Shaikh and his followers pursued ; but the lover and his mistress, mounted on the same horse, made a wonderful march and escaped. The old chief swore that the fellow was either mounted upon the devil, or the favourite mare he had lost. After his return he found, on inquiry, the latter was the case ; that the lover was the thief of his mare as well as of his daughter, and that he had stolen the one for the p urpose of carrying off the other. He quite gratified to think he had not been beaten by a horse of another breed, and was easily reconciled to the young man, in order that he might recover the mare, which appeared an objec t about whi ch he was more solicitous than his daughter.—Sketches of Persia.
