The day before yesterday being the day ap. pointed for Messrs. GREEN'S third ascent with their niagnifi • cent balloon from Newcastle, a curiosity that seemed to have nothing abated by former opportunities of gratification, was evinced by the immense number of well-dressed perions who crowded towards the Nuns'. Field to witness the spectacle. As on the previous occasions, every exertion was made to gratify the multitude of spectators assembled by displ a yi ng t h e b a l loon and car to the greatest advantage. • After the necessary preparations had been completed, the aeronauts, with their splendid equipage, ascended from the green at twenty minutes before four o'clock. A more beautiful anctimposing exhibiti o n was perhaps never beheld. . We are not aware of the longest period balloons have been visible in other places, but this ascent far exceeds any thing of the kind ever known in Newcastle. The favourable state of the aunosphere, and " the glorioni . sun," enabled the naked, eye to follow it upwards of an .hour, and gave an air of. magnificence and grandeur to the sight .which nothing ,could surpass. Soon after 'ascending, the balloon took a -south westerly direction, passing directly over the Shot Tower. In its progress, it went over. Chester-le-Street, and the city of „Durham, where•an- im mense concourse of people . Were assembled, and the aeronauts distinctly heard the sounded" a bugle. When at the.height of about a .mile and three quarters; they experienced a vety.severe fall of snow, which continued for at least three.quarters of an hour, and had a most beautiful and brilliant effect, resembling fine silver tinsel in appearance. On their arrival just over the. bleaching grounds at Hutton liudby,. they were completely be calmed, and remained stationary for about ten minutes. 'After: being in the atmosphere about tin hour.and a half, they made preparations for their descent, which they efrected, with ease and! safety, at 25'rnintites past six o'clock, in'the township of Pottoe, a mile and a - half from the Tontine . Inn, in Cleveland, and about 48 miles from Newcastle, in a field•tenanted by farmer Hall, on the estate of -- Copeley, 11;sq. They then took a chaise to Stockton, where they found•on their arrival near 3,0011 . persohs assembled to greet them. 3lessrs. Green arrived in this town between 9 and 10 o'clock yesterday morning, prepa ratory to their retu rn to Stockton, where . they intend to exhibit. the balloon, and ascend. This ascension, which is the thirty first for Mr. Charles Green, and the, ourtli for his brother, has given the greatest satisfaction. In conclusion, it is but justice to these .Gentlemen to state, that in Consequence of a disappointment on a former occasion, the prices of admissio n - were reduced, and a moiety of t h e receipts were set apartfor the Lying,in-Hospital......(Jv ev , wk T 4pon- yne, June 1. ) WEIMAR, MAY 10.—(From the 1/ b C he.illother oflio•rgEaux:- 'lll' am urg or ttained the 90th • ' who.ts sti iv irnegs.Pgellidee,7alltadita.s:ra year of her age, enjoys the The - Copenhagen pOssible state of health. papers of the 17th ult. state, b tl e m s t t the storm which raged with such , violence in April, on the wes t e rn coast of Jutland, hag done a great d ea l of damage in that quarter.

SlR—the recent discussion in . the House of Comnions, and the public interest thereby excited, will afford a justification for the, attempt of an individual to elucidate some points there with connected, and which might otherwise have remained . obscurity. The proverbial delays of Juridical Administtation are so trite and hackneyed, as to place a man conspicuously obnoxious if he avows himself a practical Lawyer. But with even this dfsadvatage, the writer hereof ventures, after 25 years experience, to state unequivocally, what others could. proVe de monstratively, that the delay and result tfo often complained of, are more attributable to the dispositions and conduct ofsuitors, than to those who are appointed to administer justice. If no man would engage in litigation unless convinced that his case was just and indisputable, the practice of Advocates, and the time of our Judges would not be wasted in the discussion of pretended rights,and ill-founded appeals. But whilst a facility of contention is afforded, which even expence cannot impede, .there is no ground of impeachment against the presiding Judges • of our Courts as to the motives or delay which attend the trial and decision of Causes improperly instituted, or.unncessarily deferred. The accumulation of cases pressing so much on the time and patience of the Courts, arises chiefly from a spirit of litigation which in a free country cannot be controullcd without giving just occasion of complaint ; and where all have a right to be heard,. those,will offer the loudest _pretensions who probably under due restraint must yield, - however reluctantly ; to the justice of a re fusal, if their original claim could have been fully investigated. out of Court. And it may 'be very fairly insisted that even where a party has uptin laborious search and inquiry established, in the opinion of his advisers, a case which demands restoration of property, the other party who is said to withhold-or retain that property; has an equal claim to shew and defend the right of possession. And an the case of minors or - other: parties having -remote-interests the necessity of some delay *must be apparent, Let any one who joins in the clamour against delay as a denial-of justice, make the case' that of his own, where - his children or relations being minors are interested,. and the conclusion will be self-evident. A case has recently :Occurred to the knowledge of the writer, wherein a pending suit must have-been erroneously decide&in a Court of Equity, if the incidental delay so much Complained of had riot 'interposed. After 'going through the routine of proceedings -which usually attend a-case in Equity, one of the parties found It necessary to advertise. the trifler of a. reward for the. discovery:of . a Peed which formed a link in' the,chain of evidence:necetiary to his Case. That Deed the' writer found and Obtained"the'yeWard. If it had not been important.to the,ends of justice; .the. Deed Would not haVe been called for ; and if the decision had been given' without its production, it is very questionable if such _ . decision could' have been just. 'Tl"ls . iVa' is. in the Case of a : Charity Endoivment. And unquestionably under like circin_ . stances many other decisions would be equally fatal to the ends of justice, where the evidence necessary for a.coriect judgment :. was unattained at the time of deriding-the cause. - 1 As to the cases of Contempts of Court .and commitment thereon, the practice is too generally known to admit of a , clues tion on the justice or propriety of the only remedy. which one subject can have against another in the case ordisobedienee to, or violation of any Order or Decree. -The Courts of Equity visit parties only .with commitment in cases of .disobedience., and whether the .ComtbitMent be 'for breach of the Court's Order .in not answering question.s material to the pui_ . poses of truth, or doing any act necessary to the ends of justice, 'or paying a sum .of , money proveci.to be dtie, : • the prisoner can in neither case .be kept at the will of the opposite party in the cause. The Court awards the commitment,' and the prisoner can obtain his release.bi doing an act !hie'', in justice, he ought to do in case of his hiviiigheen committed,. till he shall perform it And if. he is committed for nonpay- ment of money awarded to be due from him, orkittdstsdpin. tempt, he is relievable by the Lord's Act and jt dependent Statutes, or by the authorised proceedings in the Court for re-. lief of insolvent Debtors, the Act for such relief eitending to discharges. in cases of contempt for, nonpayment of money de- creed bya :Court of. Equity, ab well as it does to discharges for ' debts in the ordinary eases of insolvency.. • -• • • • , To ascribe perfection to any man in 'public or private life . would be an unjust compliment at the- expense of truth, and • would be therefore unwelcome, whether paid to the Lord Chanz. cellor or Judge, or anyother public functionary. liea ting those who at pr es ent, admini s t er t h e laws of the lan ß d t.tr with the candour due to them and their situation, ws may fairly -allow then the bleed. awarded by the.

Ed. to 2s. 9d. Rum, •we need _scarcely mention, is manufactured by the Planter from an article forming the very refuse of hie estates; and otherwise oflittle'value. The use of this material, although subject to the expence of freight, and to a duty on importation into England, is even denied . to- the 'English Distiller. In all matters with respect to his process the Planter is totally unfet tered and unrestricted by Government. His Rum, when . brought to market, heanay keep in - warehouse for an;unlimited period, without payment of duty ; and when it is taken out for con,' suniption,- duty is charged only on the quantities remaining . in the casks, inxtead, as was formerly the - case,-of the quantities ascertained by the landing gtiage.

'raking N 'gallons as the pro- I duce of one quarter (and for this it requires the use of good Corn with Is. 31 per gallon for yeast, coals, and Other ex.. ponces of manufacturing, the cost, without any profit whatever to himself, would be 3s. 3d.
