FROM THE POLISH LITHUANIAN FRONTIERS, MARCH 2.—No official accounts reach us directly:from the theatre of war, but the news contained in the journals that the Poles in the Waywodeship of Augustowo were taking acres in the rear of the Russians is wholly unfounded. In that part of the country people seen to have forgotten what has taken place ; at least several persons worthy of credit, who live on the frontier, who have gone fir into that past of Poland which is occupied by the Russians, affirm that they have ;been treated with much respect and atten tion : every Pole appeared to be following his own busi ness, and (lid not think of the revolution. Detachments of Russian troops march daily from Kowno, by way of llmianpol, and towards Warsaw. Only tie towns on the main road are occupied by the Russians —Prussian State Gazette. BitzsLAu, MAacis s.—Letters from Warsaw of the 28th of February say, that the Polish army had passed through Warsaw from the right to the left bank of- the Vistula, and had encamped near the village of Powongek, a league from the city, probably to oppose the passing of the Vistula by the corps of Generals Pahlen and Rosen. Great consternation and despondency were felt in Warsaw, but the letters do not mention that any troubles have taken place, nor du they speak of ahy fire : even Piaga seems to have suffered but little. Cl,l op i e ki i s wounded, and Vas left the army. Five other Generals, among'whom is General Weissenbuf, are said to have been deprived o f their command. PI oit,r, Job °°' off ports the 1116144 was about a week before the last Doncaster races. I was altogether a winner on the Doncaster races, I bad money when I returned from the Doncaster races, but I was obliged to borrow money to take me to the races. I was a weaver from 1811 to 1824, and before 1814 I was a book-keeper. In 1824 I got to be book-keeper to the proprietors of the Bolton Chronicle. I have never seen Calvert write, nor do I know whether he can write. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. Robert Pelt J°°e6 (From the Times.) We have just received, by an extraordinary express from Paris, the Afoniteur and other Journals of Monday, March 14. and the _4tessage r deer Chambres dated Tuesday. The official part of the Moniteur contains six Royal Ordinancei, appointing the new Ministers :- 1. M.

My salary front the Bolton Chronicle is fifteen shi!!inzs a week, and I get seven shillings a week from the Man chester Guardian, but I have an engagement on another newspaper, and altogether my salary is about thirty shil lings a week. I have gut nothing from the police but my hare expenses. Altogether I may have got from the police about )31., but I have never been paid anything for detecting those men. I have spent in expenses about this prosecution as much as I have received from the police Thomas Barratt, deputy constable of Bolton, proved finding the pocket-book containing the forged bill at the back of the chair on which Wilson was sitting after being apprehended on the 2211 of December last. When I took Collyer into custody he wanted to tell me something, hut I desired him, if he had any thing to say, to put it down in writing, awl he did so. I sent the written paper to the Magistrate's clerk. _ _ _ 2. Baron Louis, to be Minister of Finance, in the room of M. Lafitte, whose resignation is accepted. 3. M.

Sebastiani, the Minister for Foreign Affairs ; the others by M. Casimir Perier. The Moniteur contains also a Royal ordinance relative to the publicity of the proceedings in the Council of State. The non-official part gives, under the date of the 13th of March, the substance of various reports to the stiff of the National Guard, respecting the disturbances on the 11 th, when 150 young men appeared in the Fauxbourg St. Antoine with a tri•coloured flag, to which a piece of black crape was attached. The report speaks with great praise of the conduct of the working class in the Faux bourg St. Antoine, who received with contempt the endea vours made to seduce them, and offered to assist the Na tional Guard in restoring order. tear to Lif er ,t o o o am been carried' 'THIS P a — l%) lock this daY' tY Lek E'g r' ' t ;tio ri id that the pe both frivoloo IS DAY.)

When tell And And erton . came out of ll'e Went to a public-house, where Auderton produced a bill, drawn upon Masterman and Co., by Langton (the banker's clerk), payable to Samuel Ander ton, at two months date, for the sum of l il. Ss. Ander ton endorsed that bill to to me, and I put it into my pocket. The bill was dated the 24th of September. I saw Kirkwood, for the first time, in August last, at my house in Rochdale. During the month of October I had conversations with Dade at Liverpool, as to what Collyer wanted to have done, and I told him that he was to be employed to fill the notes up, and he agreed to do so. I saw Dade in the presence of Kirkwood, at Liverpool, at the house of a person named Hartley, where I paid him some money forsoaae former transactions. I engaged Kirk wood to get A nderton's bill engraved, and he said he would do so, I told him to keep the bill a short time, as I did not wish to have it done immediately. He said he would do any thing for me in that line, and he agreed to engrave the plate for 201. At this time I had got no money from Collyer, and that was the reason I put off the engraving of the plate for a short time. In November last I received from Collyer the sum of 30/. in three ten pound notes, on account of the expense of doing the bill plate. This was at Chorley in the presence of Dade. There was a person named Chadwicke with me and Dade, at Chorley, I believe; this was on the 15th of November. On the evening before Calvert introduced a person named Smith to Collyer, Dade, and me, at the Three Crowns public house, in Blackrod. During the evening we had a con versation about bills of exchange ; I cannot say whether it took place in the presence of Chadwicke, but cannot charge my memory with the particulars . of the conversa tion. About six months ago Collyer chewed me, at his uncle's counting-house in Chorley, a hill, which, among other indorsements, had the names of Lord Balearras, a man named Clayton, and the prisoner's uncle. John Smith, collier, said he intended to have similar indorsements en Heywood's bill. I saw that bill again at the Three Crowns in Blackrod, in the presence of Dade, who said that he thought the bills would do as well with out those nannis, but Collyer said it would be better to have the names on the bills. At the Joiners' Arms in Chorley I had conversations with Dade about the bills. On the 19th of November I saw Kirkwood at his own house in Liverpool, and made the agreement with him to cut the plate, and to- print twenty bills for me from the plate. The bill for .17/. Bs. which Anderton got at the bank was given to Kirkwood in part payment of the 20/., and the mainder was paid in cash. I asked Kirkwood if he could procure the stamps, and he said he would rather I should procure them, but ultimately he agreed to make the stamps, which he said could he done out of a penny-piece. left Liverpool iu a day or twc, and went to Manchester, and from thence to my house at Rochdale, where I saw Collyer and Calvert; Collyer asked if Heywood's hills were done, and I said they were not. He said he was afraid it would be too late if they were not done soon, and that he should wish to have Masterman's acceptance on the bill. I then told him to get a fresh bill from Hey wood, and send it to London for Masterman's acceptance, and he said he would do so. On the 11th of December, I saw Kirkwood at Liverpool, where he asked me if I had brought any stamps, and I said I had not. He went out to look for some stamps, and in about an hour be brought home two or three stamps, but they di.l not match. I went and bought a 4s. 6d. stamp, and he agreed to make a die from that. Kirkwood then produced two or three sorts of paper, and I selected that which I thought to be most like to Heywood's. He showed me the plate en graved, and I read it. The bills were ready on the fol lowing Tuesday, and were delivered to me in a parcel by Kirkwood in the presence of his wife. There were 27 impressions taken from the plate. I left Liverpool that evening, and went to Bolton, where I met Dade, to whom I said that 1 wanted to see Calvert. The next day I saw Calvert, Dade, and a person named Smith, when a bill, drawn by Heywood with Masterman's accept ance, for IS/. odd, was produced by one of them. The bill was in an envelope, addressed to " Mr. Doherty, Chronicle Office, Bolton." Dade said he did not think it accepted in the regular way, and his principal objection was that the acceptance appeared to be written with ink which .was neither red nor black. I knew Masterman's acceptance, and I said that it was right. Dade put the acceptance into a smell memorandum book. which he rmt into his packet. Dace etas. fur what amounts the stamps would be sufficient, and I told him from 50/. to 200/, according to the dates, and I produced a table of stamps to shew that I was correct. I gave the parcel con taining the bills to Calvert, who was to keep them and give them to Dade to be filled up as they were wanted. Dade told me that Collyer had been with him on the day before, and that the amounts for which the bills to be filled up was agreed upon. I often heard Collyer say to Dade, that if the stamps were sufficient he would have the bills filled up for 3001. or 4001. each, but that as it was, the bills must be filled up in sums of one hun dred pounds, and not more than two hundred pounds each. On the 20th of December I saw Kirkwood at my house in Rochdale, and he told me' that a person named Liddy bad been taken up for passing forged notes during the Liverpool election, and that Liddy was telling all he knew about it. He asked me if I had any thing to do with Liddy, and I said I had not. He asked me if my pre mises vet re dear, as it was likely some people might come to search my premises, and I said that I had nothing of the kind on my premises ; that I was always prepared, and did not care who came to search. He said, that for the future he should keep his premises clear ; but that he did not care for any thing, as he kept Isis things in a piece of wood, which any one might kick about without sus !reefing any thing. He went to Liverpool, and on the following day I received a letter from Dade, and I went to his house at Bolton, where he told me that Cali ert was gone to Blackred, with a bill to Collier. Whilst I was at Dade's, I saw some of the bills, partly filled up, in a little black oil-skin case, which lay on his desk. Some of them were accepted. There was one bill filled up for 150/. 10s. which Dade took out of the case to show to a person named Smith who wanted to see the hills that evening at eight o'clock at a public-house in Bolton. He asked me to go to the public-house, but I objected at first, as Smith was not an acquaintance of mine ; but I at last consented to go. The bill for 150/.los. and another good bill drawn by Mr. Heywood, were given to me, and I put them into my pocket-book, which had a good bill for 100/. of the Shaftesbury bank. We went together, and having met Smith in the street, we went together to the Red Cross public house, where I produced the hills. Smith said he thought he could pay away the 1501. bill, and another for 2001., and having examined them, returned them to me, and I plat them into my pocket-book. Before we left Dade's house, Calvert was there, and heard what passed between me and Dade. We asked him to go with us to meet Smith, but he refused, saying that lie was tired, and had to go to see Collyer the following morning. After I and Dade returned to his house that evening, there was a loud knocking at the door ; I got up and opened the door; four or five men rushed in, and one of them seized me by the hands. I went and sat down on a chair ; one of the men asked me where my great coat was, and I pointed to the table on which the coat lay ; he searched the great coat, and then came towards me ; whilst he was searching the great coat, I took out the pocket-book, containing the bills, and threw it behind the ; I have often seen Dade write, and I am acquainted with his manner of filling up bills ; be first traced them with a black lead pencil, and covered them over partly with ink,_ and partly with a composition which he makes for the purpose. The ink and composition he generally put on with a camel-hair pencil, but he sometimes used the pen. I have ofagn seen him copying signatures. To the best cf my judgment the filling up of the hill now pro duced is in Dade's hand-writing, and the engraving is a copy from the plate given to me by Kirkwood. The Shaftesbury bill, and the other good by Heywood, now produced, were in my pocket-book when I was appre hended. - The good bill, by Heywood, has a tear in it ; that was done by Smith, while comparing it with the forged bill, at the Red Cross public-house. Crosseexamined by Mr. COTTINGIIAIt--I was Com mitted to the Castle of Lancaster in January last, upon a charge of forgery, but I had no thoughts of " splitting" until I was told another person was going to inform, and I thought be might lay it upon the wrong persons. I don't think that man could implicate me, as he did not know the part taken by me in the transaction. I at first persuaded Collyer against it; but I took a part in the transaction in order to get the money that Collyer owed me. I never forged a bill, but I was apprehended in Liver pool about nine or ten years ag o upon charge of forging a bill. I was apprehended in 'Manchester upon a charge of having a 1/. forged note in my possession, about five years ago. In three months afterwards I was again taken up for another forged banknote. I never had any thing to do with base coin, but I was once taken up and tried be cause ten bad sovereigns were found lb a roam where there were near a dozen men with me. I was tried at the New Bailey and convicted of that offence upon false evidence. I was tried before that time at the New Bailey in Manchester, and was convicted for concealing 500/. from my creditors, when I was made a bankrupt; I could not conscientiously keep the money which I was advised by my friends to conceal, and I told the Commissioners about the 500/. I have as good a conscience as any man now.—(Laughter.) If I had concealed the fact I could not have been con victed; the evil was in toy telling the truth to the Com missioners. I was imprisoned three years in Lancaster Castle upon the first conviction, and I had two years in the New Bailey, Manchester Session, the second conviction. I never had any thing to do with gold repeaters; I never, to my knowledge, got from any person any patent lever gold watches which belonged to a person named Taylor, in Liverpool. I swear that I never was at the Angel Inn, in Dale-street, Liverpool, with some watches, which Mr. Taylor, of Liverpool, charged me with stealing. I knew a man named Myers, but I don't know where he is now. He was taken up at Liverpool about the bill for which - I was taken up. When I paid Kirkwood for engraving the, bill, I believe a person named Campbell, who is a prisoner in this Castle, was present. My conscience let use keep a part of the 30/. which I got from Collyer.— (Laughter.) I thought I was entitled to keep the 10/. out of the 30/. for travelling expecces. I should not have " split" if Collyer had not " split" first. I. don't think this matter would have been brought home to me. I have been always charged upon false evidence. This is the only matter of forgery with which I was ever con cerned. I should not wish to throw the rope round the necks of the prisoners, but I expect to get off myself. It was not a sense of justice that induced me to give evidence against the prisoners. Cross-examined by Mr. BRAND-I was made a bank rupt in 1316, and was tried the following year. I got out of gaol in 1320. I swear that I cannot tell the Jury in what year I was tried the second time, but to the best of my recollection it was in the year 1321 or 22. I swear that I cannot recollect in what year I came out of prison after the second trial. I lent the money to Cullyer after I came out of the New Bailey. Since I came out of the New Bailey I had ahacon store at Manchester, in part nership with a person named M'Clachly. I first became acquainted with Dade in this Castle after my bankruptcy. He was a very gentlemanly man in his manners. I after saw Wade filling up bills for Collyer, brit I never sow him do bills for any body else ; I don't think I ought to answer whether I chewed any forged notes to a constable at Bolton ; I was examined before the Magistrate as a witness against Kirkwood, but I did not in the presence of Collyer state any thing about him. William Smith, the person who procured the bill with Masterman's acceptance, having been put into the box and examined upon the voir dire, by Mr. Cottinghatn, as to his belief in the existence of a future state, said emphati cally—" I believe in a future state—l believe in a Supreme Being, and in a future state of rewards and punishments." The witness then proceeded—l am a reporter for two Manchester, and one Bolton newspapers ; I have known Calvert for twenty years—l know Howarth the constable of Bolton—l was employed by him in the course of the lest year to detect Culvert and others who were engaged in passing forged bills and notes.— On the Saturday after last Doncaster race , , which were held in the month of September last, I saw the prisoner Collyer at Bolton, and he told me that he could procure forged bankers' acceptances to any amount, and asked me if I could dispose of any. As I wished to detect the passers of those forged notes and hills, I said I could put off some of them. He asked me if I was acquainted with tradesmen in the town of Bolton? I said I was ; he said a friend of his was in difficulties, and intended to go to America after he " made a stake." He said that he thought if be and me laid our beads together, we might make a thousand wounds. He wished me to write a note to Coll) er at Blackrod, that he (Calvert) had been to Rochdale, had seen W.'s wife, and that she told hint W. was at Liverpool, but that she expected W. would cross the country and see Collver at Blackrod on his way back Calvert and I went to Blackrod that night, and we saw Coityer at the Three Lrown s pu bli c -h ouse, b ut we h a d no particular conversation thee. ~ ,„„,[ to , " higher up in the street, and a conversat ion took TIM about forged bills of exchange; Collyer said be could pay them in that part of the country under the influence of th e name of his uncle John Smith, and he produced a pocket book, and took out a returned bill with the name of John Sneith as the drawer and indorser. The bill produced is the hill. He said he could imitate Smith's hand-writing so that nobody could distinguish it; I thought lie pro duced the bill in order that I might compare the signature on the bill with his imitation of it. During this canver sation, Collyer and Calvert spoke frequently of D. and W. as the persons who could procure the bills; Collyer said he could [ ay the bills away as he svas settling his uncle's accounts, and where there was a balance against his unclehe would pay one of those bills, and receive the difference. They asked if I would go to America with them, and I agreed to do so, and to pay away some of the bills in Bolton. On a Sunday in November I went to Blackrod, where I siw Dade, Wilson, Calvert, and Collyer together. Collyer spoke in private to Wilson. A person named Chadwicke was introduced to us, and we were shown up stairs to a room. When we got up stairs we bad a conversation about the law on bills of exchange. W ilson was telli ng us how parties who drew false bills of ex chan g e were punished by law. Calvert then told me that Dade was the finisher of the notes, but he cautioned me not to let Dade or Wilson (who has been examined as a witness) know that I knew their names. Collyer said lie was in great difficulties', which commenced by his having a e . cepted an accommodation-bill for his brother-in-law, who had not met it, anti that he was obliged to draw bills upon bills to keep it up ; that he wanted Master man's acceptance, in older that Dade might be able to copy it, and he gave me 181. 10s. to get a bill of ex change at Heywooa's, which I was to send up to London for Masterman's acceptance. Calvert was pre sent at this conversation, and it was agreed that the reason to be assigned at I'leywood's for getting an acceptance was that the bill was to be paid away in Ireland. Collyer asked me if I could suggest any Irish name, and I sug., gested the name of John Doherty. I communicated those conversations to Howarth, the constable, and to Mr. Wat kins, a solicitor, and clerk to the Magistrates of Bolton. On the day or day but one afterwards I went to Hey. wood's beak, and procured the bill of exchange in favour of John Doherty at two months. I told Mr. Heywood's clerk that I wanted the bill in order to detect some for geries. I sent the bill up to London for acceptance in the letter now produced. (The letter was put in and read.) By return of post I received the bill accented. It was in a letter addressed to " Mr. John Doherty, Chronicle office, Balton. le-moors." The letter produced is the one which I received from London containing the acceptance. (The letter was put in and read in evidence, and also the acceptance of 181. Bs., which was found in Wilson's pocket book.) The letter from Ithsterman's was dated 13th Dec. I put the bill on the following day into Dade's hands, in Calvert's presence; Calvert knew what it was I gave to Dade, who inepected the bill very narrowly, and said the acc eptance must have been written with a pen which had been at first dipped in red ink ; Dade put the hill into his pocket. Wilson, who was pr esent at the time gave in structions to Dade as to the amount which a 4s. 6d. stamp would cover. On the following Sunday I saw Dade, Collyer, and Calvert, together a t the Britannia public house in Bolton, and C u li yer h aving asked the what amou nt of forged bills I could pay away, I said I thought I could not nay away more than two ; Calvert said he had no connections to whom he could pay any of the bills ; Collyer always said he could pay a number of them away. On the day the prisoners were apprehended I saw Wilson, Dade, and Calvert ; Wilson spewed rne, in the p rese nce of Dade, a forged bill for 150 /. lOs., drawn by Heywood and a ccepted by M e- asterman ; Dade h a d agreed to bring me the bill in order t hat I might comp are t h e acceptance w i t h the good accepted bill , and I did so. Whil st 1 was com paring the bills I accidentally tore the good bill. The bills now produced are th e two bills shown to me on that day, Wilson took the bills and put them up in a leather pocketbook ; this took place between seven and eight o'clock in the evening of the 22d of December ; after leaving the public-house, I went and informed the police, who were in readiness, and we followed Wilson and Dade to Dade's house. Cross-examined by Mr. Annasox—l was not present when Calvert was apprehended ; I have been in the employment of the police since August last; I have been fond of horse-racing for the last twenty years, and I have laid some wa gers on horse-racing my lan wager Howarth, the chief constable of Bolton, proved that he employed Smith on the 30th August last, to detect the prisoners, and that Smith gave him information from time to time until the prisoners were apprehended. Dade was searched, and the letter now produced and addressed to " Mr. John Doherty, Bolton-le-Moors," was found in his pocket. The paper written by Collyer was put in and read, and was to the effect, that he saw Dade on one - occa,ion " finishing" a 101. Bank of England note. Joseph Baker, a constable of Liverpool, proved having seen the prisoner Kirkwood and Wilson together at a public-house in Liverpool, in November last. Kirkwood kept a provision-shop in Byrom-street, Liverpool, and he afterwards removed to Redcross-street. I searched his house on the 20th of December last, by order of Mr. Miller, the chief police officer of Liverpool, and found engraving tnolq, a small press for taking impressions, a slab for grinding paint, some dabbers used for putting ink on copper-plate, some stones used for grinding down plates after they are engraved, some tin boxes, some colours for making ink of different colours, and some instruments which engravers use for tracing letters on copper. I pro duce those articles. Kirkwood was not then at home. I searched his house again on the 23d of December, and found the leg of a !Ale (now produced), in which there is a place hollowed out, with a lid fitting close in. In the hollow part of it there was a gold watch. I also found a copper-plate, crossed, " G. and R. Kirkwood, provision merchants." It is not unu'ual for an engraver to have such things i❑ his house. I know Kirkwood has a grown up son, but whether or not he is an engraver, I do not know. That son is big enough to be an apprentice. I did not hear any body say that a man named Rourke oc cupied the room in which the leg of the lathe was found. I know some mechanics in Liverpool who work at their trades and keep shops at the same time. The prisoner bas a wife and two daughters, who are big enough to mind a shop. Kirkwood was not at home when the second search took place, but he was not taken into custody until the 26th of Decemiler. He was apprehended at his own house. He seemed to have just come off a journey, and refused to say where he had been last. There were six police officers searching the house, and I think the people in the street knew of the search. We detained, for an hour, a man who lived in the house, but whose name I don't know to be Rourke. Re-exatnined—The press was found in a carpet••b3g under the bed, and the other articles were found in dif ferent parts of the house. By the JUDGE—If a person wanted to use those things, or to remove them out of the house, it would be more convenient to have them together than scattered in dif ferent rooms. Mr. Garnett, of Liverpool, solicitor, produced a paper written by Kirkwood during his examination before the Magistrates, and handed to Mr. Garnett. The paper was PutiNß,l.zwititiiintaminettge.Valikrptffinithi-rro -.,.. tak e you to t'!e engraver, sieve-maker (paper-maker), printer, and seller of the Bank of England notes?" Mr. Heywood proved the 1501. 10s. bill to be a forgery in every respect, and identified the accepted bill for ill. Ss. to h e the one which was drawn by his house. Mr. Joseph Langton, late agent at Liverpool to the Bank of England—l think I have seen the prisoner Kirk wood before. I discounted the bill of 171. Ss. ; I dis counted it for the prisoner, and he signed his name, "J. Kirkwood," on the back of it. I have no doubt the pri soner is the man for whom I have discounted the bill. Cross-examined — The prisoner's son was pointed out to me, and I swear that it was not for the son I discounted the bill, anti I swear to the best of my knowledge the pri soner was the man. Samuel Hoxley (a Quaker), a partner in the house of Masterman, affirmed that the acceptance on the 171. Sq. bill was in his handwriting. The acceptance on the 1501. 10s. bill is not in the handwriting of any person authorized by our house to accept bills. The other in dorsementsJoshuaßuttersthe on the bill were proved to be forgeries. Thomas Houseman Higgan, the Governor of the Castle at Lancaster—The•person named Jonathan Dade, men tioned in this indictment,. was ill my custody, anti made his escape out of prison last night, by cutting the bars and scaling the walls of the prison. Harriett Wilson, the wife of James Wilson (the ap prover), proved having seen Kirkwood at her husband's house either on the 20th or 21st of December last, but she would not swear that it was not on the 22d December. M a ry Marnock, a . servant at the Spread Eagle public house, in Rochdale, in December last, proved that she saw Kirkwood at that house on Sunday, the 19th of December list, and that he slept there that night. Cross-examined. --There are plenty of persons who come to our house, but it is out of toy power to tell the faces of all who come there. The ostler told me that the day was the 19th of December. Howard, the constable, threw some light on the date. Joseph, the ostler, told me that the day of the month was the 19th ; be told me this on my exim.ination was taken. Joseph did not count fingers to tett me the day ; Joseph is a scholar, and .‘'ilmitl Bacon, an n (Laug l engravert er .) from London, swore that the press found in Kirkwood's house appeared to him to have been used to impress the Government stamp on the back of country bank notes, but it was not well calcu lated for that purpose. Cross-examined—The appearance on the inside of the top of the press from which I form my opinion might be certainly produced by another instrument than a Govern ment stamp. James halsall Proved the apprehension of Dade at Li verpool on the 13th of December, on a charge of issuing forged notes. This was the case for the prosecution. For the prisoner, Kirkwood, it was Fubmitted by Coun sel that there Was no evidence to show that the bi:l of ex change which was the subject of this indictment was ever i n the possession of Kirkwood. His ORDSHIP was of V opinion that there was evi dence to go to the Jury. The prisoners having been called upon for their de fence, .Kirkwo o d said : —•` My Lord, I think Wilson has failed in the chief part of case. He swore that he gave me twenty pounds in Liverpool, and that he was with me drinking at Hartley's public-house, but he has not called any witnesses to prove that. Is it likely, that if I were with him at that public-house, that somebody would not he ca ll e d to Drove it ? I deny, my Lord, that I ever got the bill for seventeen pounds discounted ; and at the first examination before the Magistrates, Mr. Langston was not able to prove that I was the person for whom ihe bill was discounted, and he did not swear that I was the person, until he compared my signature with a letter written to my wife from Bolton. My name is Robert Kirkwood, and I never in my life signed my name J ames Ki r k woo d." The other prisoners said they should leave their defence to their Counsel. His LO RDSHIP was occupied upwards of two hours in summing up the evidence, and the Jury immediately found all the prisoners Guilty. Thi s s which case truecuHis L ORDSHIP said he' should not pass sentence until cocbpililes occupied been ieen thfeoun sitting(l after the trial o f th e pr i soners u p on th e o th er charges upon of the Court to nine o'clo c k at night. (From the Messager des Chartres dated Tuesday.) " PARIS, MARCH 13.—The Precurseur of Lyons says A courier, who arrived this morning, the 10th of March, at Lyons, announces that the Austrians have en tered Ferrara and Novi, and that they were mlrching against Modena, into which they have probably entered by this time.' " Without prejudging in any manner the course which the new Ministry will follow, our first impulse is to hope that the new President of the Council will show himself worthy of the high functions which he did not accept till after having long hesitated, because he knows the impor tance of the responsibility which they bring with them under present circumstances. * • " As for the question of peace or war, though M. C. Perier has hitherto been a declared partisan of peace, nothing authorizes us to believe that he is disposed to sacrifice the national dig nity to it ; and tl:e retaining Marshal Soult in the Mi nistry gives reason to believe that the question is not abso lutely decided in favour of peace, for the first proof of humanity towards foreign Powers would be the retreat of a man, who, according to Marshal Maison, inspires them with as much terror as an army of 500,000 men. " The Messager has an article of two columns, in which it discusses the progress of public opinion respect ing the probability and necessity of a war. At the com mencement of the revolution in July war was not believed to be necessary: afterwards peop!e thought it inevitable, but would have had us wait for it on our own frontier ; now they formally require it. This article concludes as follows : " Opinion feels that war or peace no longer depends on us ; that the anti-constitutional Cabinets are obliged by the insurrection of the people to draw the sword against them,—that is to say, against ourselves in the persons of those people whose fate is united to ours. Hence the in contestible tendency of people's minds towards war, which has gained over the coolest heads, and at the head of which the Government must soon place itself to have peace at home.

" PARIS, nancir 13.—We have a letter from Mad: id of the 4th of March, which says—' The communication of the cabinet of the Palais Royal to our Court, respecting the French refugees living in our country, and the pre tended voyage of the ex-Royal Family from liolyrood to Madrid, has given occasion to a very long conference between M. d'Harcourt, your Ambassador, and our Prime Minister. The following is the phrase in which, according to well-informed persons, M. Calomarde terminated this diplomatic conver,ation : " For the rest, Sir, you may give your Government the assurance, that .Spain, with a view to preserve pea ce, and the harmony which subsists between it and France, will confine itself within the limits of a wise moderation, which, however, does not exclude energy, patriotic ardour, and independence. We take pleasure, Sir, in believing that the limits in which the intentions of our Court are con fined, are also those which bound the desires of your Go vernment.' " This is all that has transpired of this conference. " The answer of our Chief Minister may show tha policy of the Spanish Government. Being unable of itself to exer cise any influence in the events which at this moment engage Europe, it waits till the issue of them shall give to its policy a less uncertain course, and oblige it to declare itself. (From La Motional of Monday.)

The Royalty of July has reached its Sth of August. It en gages in a delierate combat against the principle by virtue of which it exists. It has made its choice for peace, at whatever price,—it is going to promise it to the country. It cannot keep what it will promise: the force of circum stances will be more powerful than it ; war will come, and if; to be in a condition to resist Europe France is obliged to begin by vanquishing its Government, we know no more what to expect, we dare not ask ourselves what we should foresee,' _ _ _ " A telegraphic despatch has announced at Naples, that Messina has suffered severely by an earthquake, and that almost all the edifices at Melazzo have been totally de stroyed by this disaster."

The Prussian State Gazette of the Bth, 9th, and 10th of March, does not c9ntain a single article from Warsaw. (From the _Hamburg Reporter.) HAmaunc, Ithaca' 11.—From Warsaw we have no direct intelligence for some clays past, a sure sign that no thing very unfavourable to the Polish cause has occurred, in which case the Berlin Papers won"l have been eager enough to inform us of it. The St. Petersburgh Papers contain the Russian ac count of the battle fought on the 18th near Milosna, which is described as a brilliant victory, and in which the Rus sians are represented to have lost 2,000 men, while the loss of the Poles must have been considerably greater. The St. Petersburgh Papers also speak now, for the first time, of an insurrection which broke out last autumn among the mountaineers of the Caucasus, on hearing of the French revolution. The insurrection, we are told, was quickly suppressed by the Generals Pankratjew and Em. manuel, in a manner glorious to the Russian arms. The Prussian State Gazette contains a Russian ac count of the battle of Grochow, in which the Russians claim the victory, but admit a loss of from 4,000 to 5,000 men; and add, that the Commander-in-Chief found it necessary to allow his army two days' rest after the battle.
