TRADES' UNIONS. It is known to the licensed victuallers of London, that for some time past members of the Trades' Unions, and more especially of•the Builders' Unions, have circulated reports cal culated to injure the trade of those victuallers who deal with us, by asserting that we are the partners of Mesirs. Cubitts, the builders, of Gray's Inn-lane- roa d ; an d that we are the supporters of those builders in their present contention with their workmen. _ _ We have hitherto abstained from any public notice of these reports ; but our silence having been construed into an ac knowledgment of their truth, and resolutions of some of the Unions having been published, denouncing our presumed con duct as tyrannical and unjust, and calling upon all members of the Unions to abstain from drinking our beer, and from deal ing with victuallers supplied by us, we are at length induced, by the representations of those who have been injured, to declare that these reports are, in every possible sense, utterly false. We are not, nor ever were, either as a firm or individually, partners with Messrs. Cubitts. We have never had any other connection with them than that of employers ; and we have never, either directly or indirectly, interfered in the disputes between them and their workmen.

Vaughan, dealer, Covington-lerrace, Bermondsey DISTRESSING AND FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE aivEn.—Yesterday afternoon about half-past four o'clock, the family of Mr. Whiltshire, the proprietor of the Steam-packet Coffee-house, Lower Thames-street, was plunged . into the deepest affliction by the occurrence of the following melan choly and lamentable accident :—lt appears that Mr. Whilt shire's premises open into the wharf of the Margate Steam Company's Packet Office, and just as the Royal George Margate steame r had come alongside the quay, Mr. Whilt shire's two sons, one eight years of age and the other three and a half, slipped out unknown to their parents to see the passen gers land. M rs . W hiltshire missed them in the space of a minute or two, and feeling a presentiment of evil come over her, immediately went to see after their safety,; she had scarcely left her own house when she heard the cry a boy overboard," and on rushing f orward received the distressing and afflicting intelligence that her youngest son had fallen over the side of a barge and instantly di sappeare d. M r . Whiltshire was on the spot in a second or two, an d greatly exerted himself in endeavouring to get up t h e b ody of the child : but all efforts were unavailing, as the tide was then running down very strongly, and in the course of t en m i nutes the body of the child must have been carried by th e f orce o f the current at least a mile. Mrs. Whiltshire was in a state of frantic distraction, and she was obliged to be restrained by force faom throwi ng herself into the water after h er child. Several persons who w itnessed the accident were aff ected even to tears. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 8, 1834. SECOND EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock. THE LONDON GAZETTE THIS EVENING. ST.

This day had audiences of his Majesty, the Prince de Talleyrand, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary from the King of the French, to take leave, pro tempore ; and the Count St. Martin D'Aglie, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the King Sardinia, to deliver a letter from his Sovereign To which audiences they were respectively introduced by Lord Viscount Palmerston, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and conducted by Sir Robert Chester, Knt., Master of the Ceremonies. done no more than his duty upon the occasion—he had summed up the evidence, and as his duty dictated, he had stated his opinion that the evidence laid before the House did not justify or bear out the preamble—he had fearlessly done his duty upon that occasion, and notwithstanding such attacks, he would do so again. It was most strange how ever, that one very material fact was om itt e d (h e wou ld no t say wilfully, though ft was very like it because the accusation was founded upon the omission) which was that his Noble Friend who had the conduct of the bill in the absence of Lord Durham was present, and not only seconded his motion, but stated that he perfectly con curre d in every word that had fallen from him (the Lord Chancellor)—that fact, however, was most carefully suppressed, and that for the purpose of stating . that he h a d th rown out t h e Bill f or the purpose of spiteing Earl Durham, who it was almost need less for him to say, was one of his oldest friends, both political and personal—it was altogether most absurd. The Duke of .CUMBERLAND complained of such re marks, coming from the Noble Marquis, because he (the Duke) had attended the House every day when the Bill w a s b e f ore it, and he had no recollection:of seeing the Noble Marquis even one day. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER denied that he had made any reflection upon any one individual, but considered he had a perfect right to allude as he had done to the rejection of former Bills. All he had meant to say was, that it was pos sible that the House of Commons m i g h t f ee l sore upon t h e occasion, and he implored the House, if possible, upon that Bill, rot to widen the breach. The Committee was then appointed, and the subject dropped. FOREIGN-OFFICE, AUGUST 4. His Majesty has been graciously pleased to nominate and appoint John Samo, Esq.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, THIS EVENING. HOUSE OF LORDS. The House met to-day shortly after Three o'clock. The Almanack Stamp Duties Repeal Bill the Forest of Dean Boundaries Bill, and the Insolvent Debtors (Ireland) Bill, were read a third time and passed. The Norfolk Island Bill, the House of Commons Offices Bill, the Exchequer Bills Bill, the Bridges (Ireland) Bill, the Civil Offices Bill, and the Pension Bill went through Com mittee. SOUTH AUSTRALIAN COLONIZATION BILL. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE presented a petition in favour of this Bill. The Marquis of SALISBURY would take the opportunity of the noble Marquis presenting the petition to state that the Bill had only just been put into the hands of their Lordships, and he therefore trusted that the Noble Marquis who had the charge of the Bill would consent to the second reading being postponed until Monday or Tuesday next. Lord Ellenborough, the Earl of Falmouth, the Duke of Wellington, and Lord Wynford, thought the second reading of the Bill should be postponed until next week. After a few observations from the Marquis of L A NS- D OWNE, The Marquis of CLANRICARDE postponed the order of the day for the second reading of the Bill until Monday next. The petition was then ordered to lie on the table. COUNTY CORONERS' BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR wished to draw their Lord ships' attention to the result of the conference between their Lordships and the House of Commons on the amendments proposed by their Lordships to the Bill. As the point was one of great importance, he could not but consider it his duty to bring the subject further before their Lordships. He depre cated anything like a difference of opinion between the two Houses of Parliament ; but upon the best consideration he could give the subject, he was clearly of opinion that the course their Lordships had adopted in amending the c l ause introduced by the House of Commons into the Bill was the right one, and he (the Lord Chancellor) thou g ht, if he had an opportunity of stating his reasons for that opinion before the House of Commons, that they would arrive at the same conclusion. He was sure that in proposing that clause they had not before them a full view of the subject. He per fectly agreed that a Coroner's Court ought generally speak ing, in almost all cases, to be an open Court ; that it ought to be so in 99 cases out of 100 ; but he was equally agreed that there might be cases in which it ought not to be a public Court. In stating that he alluded to cases where with out the probability of furthering the ends of justice, matters were exposed to the public which decency would , not allow to be revealed. No Courts, certainly, were more public than the Courts of Chancery and the Ecclesiastical Courts, but in cases where public decency was outraged, it was the practice always of the Judges of those Courts to hear the cases in private. In the next place, the Coroners' Court was not a Court of final resort, and the greatest injustice might be therefore done in keeping it open in any instance. It was like a Police Court__ that, it was true was usually open, but in many instances it was closed, because the keeping it open might de feat the very end for which it was established. If the examination of particular individuals in many cases were made public, the party committing the offence might know what course to pursue to prevent being taken, whereas, if the in dividual examined had been kept secret, the culprit might be taken unawares, and justice might be got at. If the present clause was permitted to remain in the Bill, the coroner could not keep the door of his court shut upon any occasion, and the man who had committed murder might by that means escape. Under such circumstances, he would first of all move that the House should not agree to the clause introduced by the House of Commons, and he would follow that up by a motion for the appointment of a Committee for the purpose of drawing up the reasons why the House did not agree. Lord WYNFORD fully concurred in all that had fallen from his Noble Friend on the woolsack. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER thought it desirable that both Houses should come to some understanding without rejecting the clause. He thought that although the Court was described as an open Court, that the Coroner might have power to close it when occasion required, making a special report, to be communicated to the public through the public Press, of his reason for doing so. The House of Commons might be a little sore upon the subject, and upon the conduct of their Lordships towards the other Bills which they had sent up for their concurrence, as there was scarcely a Bill which had come up from them that had not either been thrown out or altered.--( Cries of " No, no.") With respect to the Dissenters' Bill, that had been agreed to by a large ma jority of the other House, but their Lordships had thought proper to throw it out. He was the last man in the world to wish their Lordships to abandon their privileges, but he thought it would be better to come to some such understanding as he had pointed out. The Duke of WELLINGTON said he must express the regret he felt u pon hearing the observations that had fallen from the Noble Marquis. That House was an independent House of Perth mem, and had a perfect right to reject any Bill which came' before it, if their Lordships conceived that it deserved it ; ar td in so doing he did not see that the other House had any right to feel offended. He must protest most strongly against the principle contained in the few remarks that fell from thct Noble Marquis. The Earl of, FALMOUTH was most surprised to hear them, and was. obliged to add his protest to that of the Noble Duke. _ _ _ The LORI) CHANCELLOR said, that allusion having been made to the Warwick Bill, he w ou ld t a k e t h a t oppor tunity of noticing a most false statement that had been made with respect to his co,. lcluct upon that Bill : it was stated and put forth to the public as if he had been the means of rejecting that Bill, w h ib as their Lordships knew, he had THE CHURCH. The Marquis of T AVI STOCK said that his Noble Friend near him (the Marquis of Westminster) had upon a late occa sion pressed upon the Government the necessity of proceeding with reforms, in order to meet the demands of the people ; he would also press the same thing upon them, and must say that he had before that expected they would have introduced some safe and salutary reforms with respect to the Church, in order to clear away those great abuses which had crept into her government. In his opinion, it was absolutely necessary that those abuses should be done away with even for the well-being of the Church herself, he alluded more particularly to the great grievance of non-residence ; for, notwithstanding all that had been said, he must say there was no greater blessing that could be given to England than a well-educated and rightly minded clergyman resident in every parish.--( Hear, hear.) He had great confidence in his Noble Friend at the head of the Go vernment, but unless he well considered the subject during the recess, and early in the next session introduced some measure upon the subject, that confidence would be greatly shaken. Having briefly stated his views upon the subject, he begged leave to ask the Noble and . Learned Lord on the Wool sack whether it was his intention to proceed with his Bills re lative to Pluralities and non-residence, in the next session. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he agreed in every word that had fallen from the Noble Marquis, and for his satisfaction, and for the information of their Lordships and the public he might say that the subject would be seriously consi dered by the Government during the recess. He had been pre vented from proceeding with his Bills in consequence of the pres sure of other business, that in the first place ; and in the next, he had had a very active correspondence with clergymen upon the subject, and was anxious to give others time to for ward him their suggestions in order that the Bills might be rendered as perfect as possible.--( Hear, hear.) He was most anxious, as a friend to the Church, to have the question settled, and would be most happy to receive and consider any amendment in the details of the bills, but he believed that no thing short of the principles contained in them would satisfy the just expectations and wishes of the people. In answer to the Noble Marquis's question, he had to say, that it was his in tention to resume both Bills immediately upon the re-assem bling of Parliament. The Duke of CUMBERLAND protested against the use of the words " great abuses " in speaking upon the subj ec t o f th e c h urc h—th ey were m i sapp li e d. If their Lordships made it requisite to have a resident vicar in every parish, what then would become of the poor curates? The Bishop of LONDON must enter his protest against the words as applied to the Church in their popular sense : he held that pluralities were a great blemish to the Church, but it was a system handed down from their Popish ancestors which could not be got rid of in the present time without also putting an end to another great abuse, derived from the same source, viz., the system of lay impropriation, with which the Noble Marquis was as well acquainted as any of their Lord ships.—( Hear.) He did not think that the two Bills alluded to could possibly pass with safety without some very great modifications. Viscount MELBO URNE said, though not personally asked any question, still their Lordships would expect him to say a word or two upon the occasion.—( Hear, hear.) He professed himself a warm friend to the Church which he considered was in some danger in the present day, to avoid which it was necessary to remove the evils which had crept into the system from time. The whole question would engage his attentior, and that of his colleagues during the recess ; and he trusted that early in the next session they would be prepared with a measure of safety. The Bishop of DERRY would not let the discussion close without stating that the Primate of Ireland had set his face most firmly against nonresidence, and had not granted one such a pplication for years. Lord ELLENBORO UGH was sorry that the Session had been allowed to close without some means having been taken by the Government to settle the question of tithes in England. He trusted it would be one of the first measures of next Session. POOR LAWS AMENDMENT BILL. Upon the Order of the Day being moved for the third read ing of the Poor L aw Am endment Bill, Lord KENYON said he objected to the principle of this Bill, but of all the clauses of the Bill he objected to those most which separated the children from their parents. The Bishop of LONDON said that with respect to the children of poor in general, and perhaps even with respect to the children of paupers, if they eould all be placed in schools in their immediate neighbourhood, or have such superintendence as that which had been bestowed by the Noble Baron who had just sat down, he might then perhaps be induced to modify the opinion he now entertained upon that subject, but at present he begged leave to say that, generally speaking, when a person became a pauper, i t was expedient for his children and himself that they should be educated apart from their parents, provided that education was on right . principles. Although there was a great mass of feeling in favour of our na tional schools, yet of all the schools those most ad mired were those where the children were taken from the parents educated; clothed, and boarded in a district estab lishment. It was from those schools that the best servants came forth.—( Hear, hear.) He trusted, and indeed he took it for granted, that the schools in the workhouses would be such schools as they ought to be, and he hoped that the Com missioners would be able to make such regulations as to keep them not very far distant from that standard of perfection which abounded in those schools over which the Noble Lord opposite (Kenyon) presided. Lord TE YNHAM thought the Bill was a delusion from one end to the other. Indeed he had no doubt that the Noble Viscount himself at the head of the Government would very early next Session move its repeal.—(Laughter.) As he was sincerely and strongly opposed to the Bill, he should move as an amendment that the Bill be read that day six months. Viscount STRANGFORD was opposed to the principle of the Bill. The Earl of FALMOUTH said there could be no doubt that the Bill would now pass, but he considered it to be wholly unnecessary, because it was perfectly well known that very great exertions had been made by most parishes so as to restore the administration of the Poor Laws in some degree to its proper state. He should liked to have seen the result of those exertions before the passing of the Bill, which he proposed what he must call very violent measures. He thought the House of Lords had done itself great credit in the manner in which it had passed the Bill, and certainly in the Committee he had not seen even the tincture of any party spirit. The Bishop of ROCHESTER said, that although he did not object to the principle of the Bill, yet that he objected to several of its clauses, and mere particularly that which separated man and wife. Lord WYNFORD supported the amendment. The Duke of RICHMOND was not aware of any clause alluded to by the Right Reverend Prelate which went to separate man and wife. If there were suchia clause in the Bill, be should like to know whether it was in troduced in the Committee. when, and by whom. The Bishop of ROCHESTER said there was a clause in the Bill, which went to place the husband in one workhouse, and the wife in another. The House then divided, when there appeared For the third reading 45 For Lord Teynham's Amendment l5 Majority for the third reading —ao On our entering the House; we found the LORD CHAN CELLOR putting the question that the Bill do pass. Lord WYNFORD moved two amendments to the 40th clause, which were agreed to. The Bishop of EXETER then rose to move the expulsion of the bastardy clause, and was left speaking. HOUSE OF COMMONS. - - The SPEAKER resumed the Chair at ten minutes past five. Returns were presented from the Commissioners of the Royal Military Canal, which were laid on the table. Mr. R. CARTER presente d a pet i t i on f rom t h e Li cense d Victuallers of Portsea, against the increase of the duty on licences. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL presented a petition from writers, procurators, solicitors, and attorneys, of the Royal Burgh of Ross, against the attorney tax ; also a petition signed by the Lord Provost and several thousand inhabitants of Edin burgh, p ray i ng ass i stance f or t h e H ouse o f R e f uge f or th e Des titute. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman gave notice, that at the very commencement of next Session he should move for leave to bring in a Bill for the abolition of imprisonment for de debt, except in cases for fraud—( Hear, hear)—also a Bill to render more secure the execution of wills respecting pro- (PRICE 7D.) perty real or personal ; also a Bill for the enfranchisement of copyholds and the improvement of all tenures. Mr. HILL brought up the report of the Committe on Baron de Bode's case. Captain GORDON presented a petition from licensed distillers of a place in Scotland, praying to be placed on an equality with the Irish distillers as regarded the duty upon spirits. Mr. JONES prosented a petition from Londonderry in sup port of the Established Church. Mr. JAMES OSWALD brought up the 45th report of the Committee upon public petitions. Mr. RUTH YEN moved for a return of the quantity of tea sold at the 'last June sale of the East India Company— Ordered. The same Hen. Member presented a petition from an individual of the name of Charles Malone, of Kildare, complaining of being deprived of a pension and claiming compensation. WEST INDIA COLONIES. The SECRETARY for the COLONIES, in answer to a question from Mr. Wilks respecting the moral and religious instruction to be afforded to the apprenticed labourers of the West India Colonies, said that it certainly was a question of the great importance, and all he could say was that the subject was at the present moment under the conglderation of the Go vernment, and he hoped that they would be able to adopt some plan by which instruction should be afforded to this class of persons upon a liberal and comprehensive system.—( Hear.) OMNIBUS NUISANCE. Col. EVANS, after referring to the nuisance occasioned by the increased number zf this species of vehicle, begged leave to ask whether there would , be any objection to issue direc tions to the heads of the police, to direct them to ba more vigilant in removing or lessening the nuisance. Mr. E. J. STANLEY said (as we understood) that there must be some additional powers granted to enable them to issue any additional directions. THE CASE OF MAJOR PITMAN. Mr. WILK S wished to know what had been done by the Government in the case of the Magistrate of the name of Pitman, who was sentenced by his brother Magistrate to pay a fine of 5/. There was a general feeling in the country that this fine was aa th improper and unsatisfactory punishment, and that instead of Tning this magistrate, they ought to have referred the case to the sessions. He wished also to know whether there had been any communication with the Lord Lieutenant of the County of Devonshire upon this subject. Mr. E. J. STANLEY said that the Government felt that the matter could not be in better hands than in those of the Noble Lord, the Lord Lieutenant of the county, and therefore left the investigation of the circumstances of the case to him. Lord EBRINGTON said, that as Lord Lieutenant of the County, he had felt it his duty to state to the Lord Chancellor the circumstances of this case, with the conviction that had been obtained, and the Lord Chancellor had, in consequence, felt it his duty to remove the magistrate in question (Major Pitcairn) from the commissien.—( Hear, hear.) STARCH DUTY REPEAL BILL. Upon the motion of Lord ALTHORP, the Starch Duty Repeal Bill was read a third time. STONE BOTTLES DUTY BILL. Upon the motion of Lord ALTHORP, the Stone Bottles Duty Repeal Bill was read a first, second, and third time. SPIRITS DUTIES BILL. Upon the motion of Lord ALTHORP that the Spirits Duties Bill be read a third tim', Mr. BL AMIRE wished to remind the Noble Lord of a pe tition that had been presented by him a short time since, from a body of respectable spirit dealers in Carlisle, complaining of various matters, particularly of the hardships they were made by the system consequent on the carrying on of the smuggling that was practised, and wishing to know if any step was intended to be taken by Government with a view to put an end to such a system. Thii question he begged to put to the Noble Lord now. The petition also complained that the dealers were under great difficulties from not being allowed to carry on their business at any place save ond, and that one being a chartered fair. It was impossible for the dealers to know, in most instances, which fairs were chartered fairs, and he (Mr. B.) wished to know if any measure was to be adopted in respect of this. He hoped that the Noble Lord would, upon revising the law affecti.ig spirit dealers, endeavour to afford them some relief upon this. If he would, it would tend much to reconcile licensed dealers to the im posts now about to be imposed upon them. Lord ALTHORP said there was certainly nothing in the present Bill to affect the system of smuggling, either for the better or the worse. There always had been great difficulty in preventing smuggling. It undoubtedly was the duty of Government to do all it could to check it, and it would con tinue to use every exertion with thot view. The means that had been taken likely had had a very beneficial effect.--( Hear.) With regard to tho chartered fairs, as distinguished from other fairs, if he (the Noble Lord) could find any means of defining such fairs, he would most gladly avail himself of any advantage that might be likely to be afforded by it. He would give the subject all the consideration he could. He was aware that the interpretation put upon the restriction of dealers not going to any fairs except chartered fairs was very strict, and stricter than it ought to be. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. Lord ALTHORP moved the order of the day for the third reading of the Consolidated Fund Bili. Mr. G. F. YOUNG inquired whether any thing had been done to carry into effect the recommendation which had been made by the Committee on Official Houses to appropriee a house to the librarian of the House of Commons. Mr. HUME said that such a house was set apart, but in the possession of another person. Lord ALTHORP was understood to say that he was not prepared to answer the question. After a few words from Mr. RUTHVEN Mr. ATTWOOD wished to ask the Noble Lord whether in granting such large sums of money, they were given to purchase the degradation of England?—( Hear, hear.) He alluded to the state of affairs in Poland, Turkey, and Rus sia, and unless the foreign honour of the country was supported he should oppose every Appropiation Bill. Lord ALTHORP was satisfied that the honour of Eng land was perfectly secure.—( Hear.) Mr. HUME asked whether it was not intended to take 100,0001. from the Consolidated Fund, for the purpose of supplying the deficiencies of tithes in Ireland. Mr. LITTLETON said there was not any such intention. Mr. HUME said there was such a sum mentioned. Mr. LITTLETON said there was 100,0001. borrowed for the purpose of meeting the first demands of the clergy, and the deficiency of tithes occasioned by the allowance of one-fifth,would be paid out of the Consolidated Fund. Mr. SHAW contended, that the whole system was a delusion, and that there never would be sufficient resources arising from the Perpetuity Purchase Fund, to pay the yearly demand of 100,0001. (LEFT SPEAKING.) ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—GUILDFORD, AUG 7. (Before Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE.) Joseph Fisher Perkins, aged 28, was indicted for bigamy. Mr. Maclean was counsel for the prosecution. The prisoner, it appeared, had married his first wife at Bir mingham, in March, 1825. She was now alive, and preferred the charge against him at Union-hall. The marriage with his second wife was proved to have been solemnized at Peter's, Walworth, on the 16th of July last. She had gone by the name of Emma Maslin, and had been in the wine business there. An examined copy of a certificate of a marriage by licence between the prisoner and Emma Thornley was put in. One of the witnesses said he did not think Maslin her real name. Mr. CLARKSON and Mr. CHAMBERS objected that the evi dence did not sufficiently show the marriage of the second woman by the name of Emma Thornley. but The prisoner was found Guilty. The Jury recommended him to mercy, and he was sentenced to three months' impri sonment. DICAS V. HARMER, GENT., AND ANOTHER. This was an action brought by the plaintiff against Mr. Harmer and another, as proprietors of the Weekly Dispatch, for a libel in the publication of a report contained in that paper of the proceedings on the trial of "Dicas v. Onwhyn," the newsvender, on which occasion the plaintiff recovered one farthing damages. Mr. PLATT stated that his client, Mr. Dicas, was an attor ney of all the superior courts of Westminster, and had been so for thirty years, and he had now to complain of a libel in a weekly newspaper called the Weekly Dispatch. Persons who had the weapon of a newspaper at their command were fear ful antagonists, but his client had had the courag e t o f ace them. Mr. Dicas being libelled in the Satirist, brought an action against the proprietors, and at the same time cautioned all newsvenders against selling the paper. Onwhyn, how ever, sold the paper, and an action was brought against him, and he obtained a verdict for a very small amount. Mr. Platt then read the alleged libel, being the report of the trial, parti cularly the speech of Sir John Campbell, the then Solicitor- General. He (Mr. Platt) considered that the freedom of speech belonging to the bar was the freedom of the people— that freedom by which the property, the rights, and liberties of the subject were protected. Any one who dared to put it down would be a traitor to his country. But no gentleman at the bar, be he Solicitor or Attorney-General, could have a right to travel out of the record, as it was made to appear by this report Sir John Campbell had done. The newspaper of February 16 was then put in ; the formal proofs of the defendant's proprietorship, and the plaintiff's ad mission and acting as an attorney, having been given. Charles Bluck, a coal-merchant, had known Dicas, and con sidered the libel to relate to him. Mr. ADOLPHUS then addressed the jury. He began by ob serving that he must be careful what he said, or he might find on his return to town that he was ranked among those who were selected by Mr. Dicas as his victims. Without aspiring to the honours of Ulysses, he should regret deeply been brought into a contest with Thyrsites. Mr. Harmer (his cli- ent), who was contrasted with the plaintiff, was'ti every reg. 4 pect a contrast to him. The learned gentleman then pro- \ nounced a panegyric on Mr. Harmer, whom he said he hut known upwards of twenty years. Those who -tleclair•• libe ty of speech generally meant to say " I free." It had been asserted that this report Campbell's speech was invention ; if so, the pl have shown that it was so. It was of great it'll proceedings of courts of justice should be laid ber Those courts were the schools of the purest na, trated by actual examples. Miserably defective be the morality of this or any other country were not the pro_. ceedings of our courts fully and fairly detailed. It was this privilege which distinguished the court in which they were assembled from the Star Chamber. He contended it would be sufficient if the jury believed the report to be substantially true. If the jury felt themselves compelled to find a verdict for the plaintiff, he hoped they would follow the example of the jury in " Dicas v. Onwhyn," and send him to the Mas ter's office to pocket the smallest damages, and that would be the benefit Mr. Dicas would derive from having been thirty years an attorney. They must act towards the press as Prior had told the lover to behave to his mistress, and which had been so happily quoted by Erskine in a case of libel— _ 'I Be to her virtues very kind : " Be to her faults a little blind." He was sure they knew the value of the freedom of the press, and would afford him the satisfaction of witnessing by their verdict their vindication of one of the principal branches of English liberty. The CHIEF JUSTICE, in summing up, told the Jury that they must be of opinion that the tendency of the publication ins question was to injure the plaintiff in ms enaracter and con fession, before they found a verdict in his favour. Supposing it had been pleaded that what was published was a fair and correct report of what passed upon the trial, that might have been an answer to the present action ; he did not wish to be considered as laying it down that it would, because counsel, from the excitement of the moment, made observations that were irrelevant, and which, as they ought not to have beep made in court, ought not to be published out of court. The general rule of law was, that what passed in courts of law, might be published; but still it sometimes happened that things passed there which would fall within the exception to the rule. On this occasion no justification had been pleaded; they would therefore inquire among themselves whether that which purported to be a report of the trial, mid the account of what was stated to be the speech of the Solicitor-General, was likely to prejudice the plaintiff in his bn,siness as an attorney. They would say, if the paper contained a false and malicious statement, tending to injure the plaintiff in his reputation. The Jury, after retiring about three-quarters of an. hour, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 201. Mr. PLATT, on the behalf of Mr. Dicas, applied to his Lordship to certify for a Special Jury, but his Lordship refo.sed to do so. DICAS V. HARMER, GENT., BELL, AND OTHERS. Mr. PLATT stated that this was another action which his client had been compelled to bring against the proprietors of the Weekly Dispatch for libel. It appeared as though it was intended to hunt Mr. Dicas down by means of these publica tions. The libel now complained of appeared in the Weekly Dispatch of the 30th March last, and professed to be a report of what passed at Kingston on the trial of the action just dis posed of, when the cause came on for trial, and the defendant's counsel not appearing, the Jury gave Mr. Dicas a verdict for 501. On the following day ( Sunday) a large placard or broadside was exhibited, on which was printed in a large type " Lawyer Dicas again against the Dispatch for a libel !" In the paper was given an account of the Kingston trial, and if that journal had confined itself to the publication of what took place on that occasion, and had given a fair and impartial ac count of the proceedings, Mr. Dicas would not have com plained : but they would find it did not bear that character- The opinion of the noble and learned Judge was entirely omitted. _ The CHIEF JUSTICE—I don't see how omitting the sum ming up of the judge can make this a libel, Mr. PLATT contended it gave a character to the publication. The Jury would find that the word " gentlemen" attached to his client's name was printed in italics ; it also described him as a " gentleman by Act of Parliament," and spoke of him as " Mister Dicas." He was sure they would see the motive with which these things were done, and that the object was not to give a faithful report of the trial, but to hold up his client to ridicule. So anxious had Mr. Dicas been to leave no room for the insinuation that he was actuated by a fondness for costs, that he had offered to consolidate the present with the last ac tion, that one Jury might try them, and thus save expense, he (Mr. Dicas) being desirous to diminish the costs as much as possible. To that offer the defendants had not condescended to give an answer. His learned friend (Mr. Thesiger) would have no ground for the trite insinuations about costs. He must choose higher topics for his eloquence. The English bar had had its Erskiner, " we had our Dunnings." Mr. THESIGER—We have, indeed ! Mr. PLATT—His learned friend, notwithstanding this play. fulness of wit, would follow their examples ; he hoped he would not attempt to go beyond them. The formal proof was then given of the plaintiff's admission as an attorney, and of the defendants' property in the paper. The libel was put in and read. It spoke of the plaintiff as the well-known Dicas, and alluded to "his susceptible feel ings." It then proceeded to give nearly a column and a quar ter of the speech of the plaintiff's counsel. Mr. THESIGER (with whom was Mr. Adolphus) then ad dressed the jury. " Dicas again lawyer Dicas against the Dispatch for libel !" He hoped he was not making himself liable to an action for repeating those words with somewhat of emphasis. The plaintiff had come to Guilford to breathe the country air for the benefit of his health, and to benefit his character. The task of his learned friend was to clean and clear the character of Mr. Dicas—of " Mr. Dicas, again and. again." His friend had shown much zeal, but those who were acquainted with him knew that his zeol was often in an inverse ratio with the quality of the cause he had to advocate. He ( Mr. Thesiger) was at Kingston, and he asserted that the libel complained of was a faithful and accurate report of the trial. Mr. Dicas having just received a verdict with damages, felt desirous of a littl more gold to add more lustre to nis name. No l c.f.

Then he com plained of being termed the " well-known." Suppose it had been said that he was the " ill-known," there certainly woilld have been an action brought for that. Then he was called " a gentleman by Act of Parliament," and that too was said to be libellous ; and " Mister," in italia, was not to be borne by , Mr. Dicas. There was no pleasing him. If he was Called " Mr." Dicas, it was a libel ; it they said " Dicas again," that was actionable ; if the public were informed that he was " a gentleman by Act of Parliamerit," that was intolerable, though in the cause-list he had entered himself as " Dicas, gent., one, &c." Then he complained of being called " lawyer." What I was a lawyer a term of reproach? Suppose they had said he was no lawyer ; there was an action ready directly. So that there was no eluding his vigilance. He had all his broadsides down upon them at once. If he was called no lawyer, that was disparagement ; if he was called a lawyer , that was a deep insult. So that, ho wever h e was spo k en o f; he was at them—yes, " again and again," to vindicate his cha racter. He trusted the jury would discourage such actions.' The jury returneda verdict for the defendant. EXECUTION OF THOMAS HAMMOND, AT MAIDSTONE. This day (Thursday) at noon, the sentence of the law was carried into effect upon a platform erected on the lodge of the county gaol, on the above-named malefactor, who was con victed at the late assizes of committing a rape upon Mrs. Sarah Pegg, on the 19th of March last, at Wmgham, in this county. The dread of a violent death appeared to prey upon his mind, and his physical poll ers were in consequence much relaxed. On Monday he was visited by his parents and other relatives, which terminated in a final separation which it is said was truly affecting. Yesterday ( Wednesday) the Rev. Mr. Ovendon, vicar of Wingham, as a last effort to save his life, applied at the o ffi ce of the S ecretary of State for the Home Department, in consequence of which a letter was despatched to Mr. Agar, the gaoler, which he received a few hours .be fore that appointed for the execution. It stated, that as the offence was of such an aggravated nature, his Majesty's ser vants were of opinion, after due inquiry and deliberation, that the law must take its course. About nine o'clOck the male factor attended divine service in the chapel, when the Rev. Mr. Winter, the chaplain, readand expounded the Scriptures to him, and engaged in prayer. " After this it was announced to the prisoner that an uncle had arrived, and desired to see him. The prisoner assented, and an interview was allowed ; the prisoner conversed freely, and expressed sorrow that he had brought so much misery into his family. His father was in the neighbourhood, but the poor old man dared not hazard another parting interview. At half-past eleven o'clock, Mr. Under Sheriff Wildes arrived at the gaol with his officers, and demanded the prisoner, who was delivered up to the ex ecutioner, and his arms and wrists were pinioned in the usual way. When the culprit got to the room which led to the plat form, he requested to retire into another apartment to pray alone for a few moments, and he was allowed to do so. He then ascended the scaffold with a firm step, and gazed stead fastly at the multitude below him. The executioner then ad justed the rope, with his usual celerity, when the un happy youth wished to say a word or two. He spoke as follows : , " I hope that my fate will be a warning to all young men, and that they will hereafter refrain from attending at public ho uses. " been The Under Sheriff loudly repeated his dying words to the anxious multitude. The cap was then drawn down, the fatal bolt was withdrawn, and in less than a minute - the unfortunate spectators youth appeared to be lifeless. After the body had sus pended an hour, it was cut down, anT d h d e eli nu ve . re m d ber to of h s is p were in prisonerattendan w ce as to a st c o o u n t v i, e . y ell i_t g t; w for inter mileontw.sWinygouhnagin men, with rather a prepossessing countenance, and h fate appeared to excite considerable commiseration.
