SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Standard offers the following apology for the extravagance of the language made use of at the soi disant. great Protestant meeting in Dublin : " We do not mean to say that all the speeches were equally temperate—lrishmen must be, what they have never been, miracles of patience and long suffering, if such could be said— but we do say that half a dozen lines in one speech (and the liberal journals have made the most of these half a dozen lines), were all that could be called even strong and angry language in the whole twenty columns report of the Dublin Mail. We ask for the examples of raving and sedition to be found in any of the several speeches of Lord Bandon, Lord Mayo, the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Lord Rathdowne, Lord Cole, Lord Roden, Lord Longford, Lord Winchilsea, Captain Cottingham, Lord Downshire_, Mr. Hamilton, Lord Downes, Mr. Martin, Mr. Boyton, Lord Lorton, Mr. O'Sullivan, Mr. Shirley, Mr. Magee, Lord Massarene, Sir Robert Bateson, Mr. Moore, Mr. West, Sir James Bruce, Colonel Verner, Colonel Irwin, Lord Courtown, Mr. Lambert, or Sir Augustine Fitzgerald? These were all the speakers, with one exception—a gentleman who made a very short, and we admit, in part, an angry speech, in every word of which, however, we do most heartily concur." We suppose, from Mr. Hamilton being included among the moderates, that he is not one exception. This gentleman, in the name of the Protestants of Ireland, offered to support the Peers by the bayonet ! But the Rev. Marcus Beresford is not enumerated among the speakers by the Standard, and yet his speech seems to have been more rapturously cheered than any other, and the Dublin Evening Post assigns nearly a column to him. "We have given (says that journal) the speech verbatim, as it was spoken, word for word, not a rffaciamento, not a qualified dilution, but a full, fair, and frce representation of the vulga rity, violence, and treason of this real blood of a Be resford.' " We well know that all madmen are not confined—that men are occasionally suffered to go at large who are less rational than some who are in safe cus tody in St. Luke's ; and we would not, therefore, charge the pretended Protestant meeting with seditious raving, because one or two crackbrained fellows were suffered to hold forth in it. But the Reverend Marcus Beres ford, as The Dublin Evening Post affirms, was the fa vourite speaker—" chip of the old block, a bird of the true breed, the real blood of a Beresford,' as the extraordinary assemblage' hailed him in ecstacy, when he was pronouncing some ferocious curse upon the country or menacing the people with the horrors of a Beresford civil war." But we will allow our contemporary to make his choice between Mr. Hamil ton and the Rev. Marcus Beresford, and ask him if lie really " most heartily concurs in every word spoken" by either, of these gentlemen ? We will, for the pre sent, repeat a few passages from the speech of the Rev. Marcus Beresford, in order not to show the ex travagance and madness of that individual, but the madness and extravagance which was rapturously cheered by six thousand pretended Irish Protestants, and which is - approved by a London Conservative journal. We will get rid of the Bloody Popish Rebels from amongst us.—( Loud and continued cheers.) We will stock our lards with honest Protestants. We will banish the illicit distiller .from amongst us who is a disgrace to us. I would, and I de clare it most solemnly (here the reverend speaker raised his arm and his voice)—l would rather eat a potatoe and salt with a good Protestant, than live like a King in the midst of Pa pists.—( Cheers, and a cry of The true blood of a Beresford.') Some of our clergymen wish to put Protestants on our glebes, but some conscientious men to whom I have spoken said, Oh, we get our tithes from the Papists ;' but now the Papists pay us no tithes, and shall we not get rid of them ?—( Cheers. ) The Government may make us as poor as Job ; but they cannot make us dishonest.—( Cheers.) Let the fires of Smithfield b' lighted again ; and although we went, like old Latimer, to our deaths, covered with sackcloth, and overwhelmed with the curses of the Papists, we will not succumb ; and we !Mall still have, thank God, good men pressing into our Church— ( Cheers.) My Lords and Gentlemen, these are the senti ments of every worthy and honest man in the Protestant Church of Ireland, and if they were all congregated here this day, they would one and all exclaim, we will stand by you until the last moment of our breath. (The reverend speaker concluded amid loud cheers, and retired to his seat seemingly much exhausted by the display of oratory which lie had made).' These sentiments were loudly cheered a meeting of 6,000 persons ; and we do not hear that Lord Bandon, Lord Mayo, the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Lord Rathdowne, Lord Cole, Lord Roden, Lord Longford, Lord Winchilsea, Capt. Cottingham, Lord Downshire, Mr. Hamilton, Lord Downes, Mr. Martin, Mr. Boyton, Lord Lorton, Mr. O'Sullivan, Mr. Shirley, Mr. Magee, Lord Mascarene, Sir Robert Bateson, Mr. Moore, Mr. West, Sir James Bruce, Colonel Vernon, Colonel Irwin, Lord Courtown, Mr. Lambert, and Sir Augustine Fitzgerald, the speakers enumerated by our Contemporary, expressed their dis sent, or in any way marked their disapprobation of what was so well received. The speeches of Lords Roden and Winchilsea were sufficiently wild, but they did not indicate the ferocity of purpose which charac terised the effusions of Mr. Hamilton and the Rev. Marcus Beresford. • But the more extravagant the language, the more welcome does it seem to have been to the meeting. Now, all this raving may be very absurd, but it may, notwithstanding, be very mis chievous in Ireland. A Journal, distinguished among the Dublin Papers for correct information and sound sense, and supposed to possess the confidence of the local Government—we mean the Dublin Evening Post—expressly attributed to the getters up of this Protestant meeting a design to involve Ireland in con fusion. " If prompt measures," said that Journal, " be not taken, we shall hear in the course of the next week from the North of Ireland a resrnse to the speech of the Reverend Marcus Beresford ; or, with out a figure, we shall hear a tale of blood. Do we fear rebellion ? No—not at all, but outrages and murder we fear." That most inconsistent of all jour nals, the Times, which at another time would have thundered in its own way against the detestable spirit displayed at the great Protestant Meeting, affects to be astonished that we should have deemed it necessary to speak in terms of reprehension of the speech of the Rev. Marcus Beresford. That speech acquired im portance from the individual by whom it was uttered. He is expressly said, by the Dublin Evening Post, to he " the mouthpiece of the Primate," and Ireland has already suffered too much from the Beresfords, to allow us to consider anything, that falls from them, - deserving of attention. They are in the receipt—unfortunately---of a large amount of pub lic money,—and the House of Lords was guided by that family in their rejection of the Tithe Bill. The Times having so often changed opinions, and changed sides, is, in some respects, in the situa tion of Colonel Charteris,' obliged, from its bad cha racter, to be a little more circumspect than it would 'be from inclination. The Colonel would have given a large sum for a new character, that he might be able to cheat with success. If our contemporary was not a little under the restraint imposed by a consciousness of notorious want of principle, it would at this time turn against Ministers, and, instead of confining itself to nibbling against the Chronicle, and lampooning its old patron, Lord Brougham, it would turn round at once, and oppose, with might and main, the whole po licy of Ministers, both here and in Ireland. When we consider that the Times has uniformly betrayed the confidence of every man who trusted to it—and that Lord Brougham had, in the treachery it displayed to wards the Marquis of Wellesley and many other States men, a proof of the insecure tenure by which the fa vour of that journal is held—we cannot help wondering that he should ever have put himself in the power of such a vile instrument. The Caledonian Mercury forcibly observes of our contemporary-- 4 The Times is not so quite so mighty as it supposes. Whatever weathercock-evolutions it may choose to perform— however it may oscillate and vary its phases —now refuting to day what it indoctrinated yesterday, we may take leave to ap prise our contemporary—leading journal of Europe as it is.— that its eccentric career will not be followed or admired by the thinking and intelligent British public, who dislike and repu diate such vacillation as it has displayed. The Times is ex tremely arrogant—it wants to be no less than Prime Minister of Britain. If the Ministry does not approve and adopt every crude suggestion which it pleases to throw out for their guid ance, then it takes the pet, and from being a staunch adhe rent, immediately unfurls the standard of hostility. The con ductors of the Times have laid it down as a first principle of State, that no Ministry can exist under the blighting influence of their opposition ;' nay, they would usurp the Royal prero gative itself, and arrogate the selection of the members of the Administration. We shrewdly suspect, however, that the Times miscalculates its strength, and mightily overrates its influence. It is powerful only when it echoes the voice of the nation ; when it thunders forth its own isolated and unfounded dogmas, as Lord Brougham said of the ' Oxford festivities,' we may predicate of the Times that it is infinitely harmless.' Let such capricious and erratic exhibitions continue, and ere long the leading journal will discovc r that it has been steering a wrong course, and that the public will refuse to be guided by or to patronize such a wreckless and inconsiderate pilot. * * It has, no doubt, lately chopped about, and set itself to give its uncertain support to the Melbourne Ministry. But the teeth of this destroyer of things and Ministers is dulled by age" —its ancient influence has already crumbled into ruin--aLd the good old Times will be found, like its forefathers, to have passed, ere now, irrevocably away." This is, no doubt, severe ; but who will say that the Times has not deserved the castigation ? It must read the contemporary press to little purpose if it do not find that its tergiversation is the subject of indig nant remark in every independent journal of the em pire. The Times is under , the necessity of affecting to support Ministers, and therefore it will not, for the present, assist the Duke of Wellington and the Beres fords. But Ministers are too well aware of the cha racter of this forced ally to count upon it. Like an Indian ally, it will seize the first occasion that is safe to do them mischief. We spoke with indignation of the atrocious language held at the Dublin meeting, because that which would be merely ridiculous in England, may lead to bloodshed in Ireland. And why did the two Dukes and the Beresfords determine on rejecting the Tithe Bill, but because they thought the rejection might cause outrages, which would embarrass Minis ters ? "Itis a mistake (to borrow the language of a contemporary) to imagine that the Beresfords and their gang wo.ild have incurred the tremendous responsibility of consigning the Protestant clergy to starvation, without some other object than that of merely spiting the Minis ters." It is very easy of the Times, speaking of the menace of Marcus Beresford, to exclaim, " easier said than done," and to talk of battles in the clouds. We are quite aware that it is not in the power of Marcus Beresford or any of his gang to cut the throats of even 50,000 Catholics; but we know that Lord Roden and several other speakers at the meeting, as well as Mar cus, spoke of the necessity of being surrounded by Protestants—that the Rev. Mr. Boyton even dwelt on the most of the absentee property being held by the tenure of letting the lands to Protestants. Now we know that the ejectment of a single family, contrary to the notions of justice which prevail among the people, has been more than once the cause of deluging a whole district with blood. The supposed injustice on the Courtenay estates led to the most appalling scenes. In an, account of Experimental Improvements on Crown Lands, at King William's Town, in Ireland, ordered by the House of Commons to be printed 26th March, 1834, and a copy of which we have just received, we find Mr. Neale, of the Office of 'Woods and Forests, dwelling again and again on the caution necessary in making any changes in the occupancy in Ireland : " The introduction of any strangers (he says) must be con ducted with great caution, otherwise the measure may prove to be materially injurious. I have no doubt that, at first, it will be found sufficiently difficult to reconcile the tenants to the prospect of any disturbance of their present holdings ; but if a suspicion should arise in their minds, generally, that their permanent settlement in the property will be exposed to a competition with strangers, the future success of the under taking will be placed in great jeopardy. In almost every part of Ireland there prevails among the old native tenantry a strong feeling on this subject, the true nature of which is not generally understood. It is usually expressed in their claim of a tenant right of renewal, when no such right .exists at law; and where the claim is disregarded by a proprietor, and the tenant ejected, the country invariably combine to resent the infraction of their presumed coal man right, by the commission of outrages on the persons and property of the new occupants. Another and totally different state of society must arise before this erroneous feeling will be eradicated ; but, in the meantime, its in convenience may be in great part obviated by prudent manage ment. Its origin may be traced back to that period in the history of the natio,., when the common people of each sent or tribe still held a tract of country in common, and distinctly from the mensal lands retained by the chieftain and the mem bers of his family. When the ancient modes of tenure under the Brehan law of the Irish were abolished by the supremacy of the English Government, and the English laws of property were enforced by partial confiscation and by grants from the Crown, the new proprietors were still compelled to yield to the force of the ancient customs, although they succeeded in establishing a colourable adoption of English tenures by con tract with native individuals, respectively representing several families of the old betaghs or vassals, and other classes of the common people, to whom one or more town lands were de mised, sometimes as estates ofinheritance, but more generally for terms of lives certain." Mr. Neale thinks that if the general confiscation of the 17th century had not intervened, those Irish holders would have acquired customary estates of in heritance, as the commoners on manors did in Eng land. Be this as it may, it is quite evident that so long as the people have one law among themselves, and the proprietors can put another in force, it is in the power of any individual who disregards conse quences to throw the whole of an extensive district into confusion. Though, therefore, the threat of Marcus Beresford may be absurd, it may be infinitely mischievous ; and we would not have it too early taken for granted that much calamity may not ensue from the understanding come to by some of the owners of lands and tithes at the " great Protestant meeting."—Morn ing Chronicle. We have to-clay devoted a considerable portion of our Paper to the report of the proceedings at the dinner given by the Protestants of Dublin to the Earl of Winchilsea. We hope and believe that we could not have presented to our readers a more acceptable offering. The spirit and the principles . which shed their animating influence upon the numerous and in fluential assembly which this important occasion called together, must pervade the whole Protes tant body, if the encroachments of Popery are to be effectually withstood, if the violent and sanguinary extinction of Protestantism and Pro testants in Ireland is to be prevented. We need not recommend the eloquent speeches delivered at this meeting to the attentive perusal of our readers. It must be universally felt and acknowledged that, un less the efforts now making by the Protestants of Ire land should be seconded by corresponding efforts on the part of the Protestants of Great Britain, the Church will speedily be abolished in the Sister King dom, the population of that country consigned to the uncultivated dominion of an abject and demoralizina superstition, and the only bond of union between the different members of the empire, utterly and for ever destroyed. The present crisis is an awful one for Ire land and for Great Britain. Nothin g but concert and energy on the part of the British anlrish Protestants can now prevent the relapse of Ireland into barbarism, and the final dismemberment and ruin of the British dominions.—Morning Post. We yesterday took a view, which some people thought marked by levity, of the conduct of the Irish Orangemen; and yet the gravest reasoning must result in the same conclusion, as to the utter absurdity of these noisy fanatics. Surely, if the .secret views and calculations of the majority in the House of Peers, on delivering their vote against the Church of Ireland a few days ago, be difficult for an honest man of plain understanding to conjecture, how much more so are the objects of those who call themselves the " Protest ant party" out of doors, in that series of exhibitions, at which, as described to us by the Orange newspapers, Lords Roden, Winchilsea, and their compeers have figured so prominently during the last week ! We have looked in vain throughout those reported proceedings for any rational key or clue to the course of action resolved upon by the " Protestant party" in Ireland. Were we cruel• enough to take in downright earnest the wild avowals of certain persons, one of whom bears the name of Hamilton, the other the inauspicious name of Beresford—men who chatter about bayonets, about getting rid of the " bloody Papist rebels," and so forth—the case is plain enough ; they meditate civil war, that is, a civil war to be carried on by English men, money, and re sources, for the exclusive benefit of these same blood thirsty Orangemen. When a ship seems on the point of foundering, and no hope is left, it too often happens that the crew break into open mutiny, stave the spirit casks, get beastly drunk, to keep off as it were, the hideous image of gaping shipwreck, and thus accele rate the ruin which appals them. Such perhaps are the moribund orgies of this faction—disappointed, reckless, furious, despairing, bursting with vengeance in its last moments—not gathering up the robe and ex piring gracefully, not satisfied to wait the destined hour of natural dissolution, but provoking a violent and painful death. These barbarians in .the sacerdotal vestment tell their countrymen that the day of battle is at hand ; but do they flatter themselves that only Pro testants can hear them ? Do the echoes of hard and insulting words r.:ach none but friendly perceptions ? What if a savage multitude of Catholics should accept the defiance which a Protestant savage has flung down to them ! Is it for such unhallowed warfare that Bri tain must gird herself with the sword ? Take for granted that England should enter the lists, and choosing the Protestant for her temporary ally, should, put, down, as she might do at her own pleasure, the party whom she thought it most just and expedient to humble—do these firebrands of the old ascendancy dream that she would ever again establish her own su premacy on the wretched foundation of one sectarian coterie ? England has paid dearly for such an expe riment, and they who think she would or could now repeat it will find themselves fatally mistaken. Even their panacea, therefore, of a civil war will not serve the purpose of the Orange incendiaries, or, in other words, will not enable them to indulge their brutal appetite for lawless domination and re venge. Lord-Roden says (it is after dinner) that " the House of Lords, seeing the entire property of the country to be at stake, supported the claims of the Pro testant Clergy ;" but there is such a thing as support ing a " claim," to the ruin of the party who prefers it. And how has the House of Lords " supported" the claims of the Clergy ? Has it enabled the Clergy to enforce their claims by collecting the money due to them ? Will the House of Lords ever have the fa culty of rendering to the Clergy of Ireland that which is the only support of the value to them of one single farthing, and that for which alone the Clergy would deem it worth their while to pass even a vote of thanks to these their boasted patrons, viz.—the power of reco vering the income which th e y are told is still theirs by law ?° We ask the question once again, for it contains the marrow of the whole subject, which is, a solid avail able and acknowledged right to 801., or a nominal and barren claim to 1001., not in effect producing 51., that which the true friends either of an individual or of a public body, having at heart his or its real interest, would be most inclined to support ? Have the Con servative Lords yet devised any plan by which the claim of the Clergy to 100/. can be realized ? And if not, how can they reconcile to humanity, to conscience, or to good faith, the vote by which they have despoiled the Church of the 80/., which, but for that vote, was actually in her pocket ? There is no shirking the above dilemma. The Lords,Otherefore, have demolished the temporalities of the Church of Ireland—let them beware of the reaction to which the Church of England may, by that enormous blunder, be exposed. Let them bethink themselves what arms their blind obduracy may have placed at the disposal of English nonconformists, when they tell the world that the churches of both countries are embarked in the same bottom !—Times. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE. PICKING POCKETS.—Yesterday Edward Jones, a youth about ten years of age, was charged with stealing a silk handkerchief from the person of Mr. David Todd, surgeon, of Sol's-row, Hampstead-road. The prosecutor deposed that about four o'clock the pre vious afternoon he was walking along the New-road, towards Fitzroy-square, when he felt a tug at his coat pocket, and on turning round saw his handkerchief in the hands of the prisoner, who threw it down and took to his heels. Witness followed him, crying " Stop thief!" when he was stopped by a policeman, who took him into custody. Police constable E 149 said he stopped the prisoner, and on taking him to the station he took off his cap, and, throw ing it to a boy who was following, exclaimed, " Take that home to my mother, Jem, and tell her where I'm gone to." Witness, however, picked up the cap, in which he found a silk handkerchief, which he had no doubt had also been stolen.—Committed for trial. INFORMATION.—Mr. John Wright, grocer and tea-dealer, corner of Rathbone-place and Oxford-street, appeared at this office yesterday to answer to an information laid by Carter, the common informer, for allowing a cask to be placed on the pavement fronting his house, contrary to the Act of Parliament. Mr. Wright having proved that the cask was not on the pavement, but on the iron-railings over his area, the infor mation was dismissed, much to the dissatisfaction of Carter, who left the office in despair, all his informations of late having shared the same fate. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1834. QUEEN- S QUARE. A RELATlON.—Yesterday Glass, one of the messengers of St. Margaret's Workhouse, attended before Mr. WHITE to communicate to him the result of an application he bad made, to the relations of a young female, named Louisa Charrington, who had attempted to drown herself in the enclosure of St. James's Park. It appeared that a few days ago the female in question had attempted suicide in St. James's Park, and was rescued from a watery grave by a police constable, and brought to this office, when she stated that she had been turned out of doors by her relations, and she was consigned to the ears of the parish officers. After she had been recovered from the effects of the shock, Glass found out that she bad a brother-in-law living in St. Martin's -street, Leicester-square. This man was married to her sister, and he took her to him, but he at once refused to receive her, and said that he had quite enough to keep without her. He (Glass) was rather surprised at his reception, and represented to him that his unfortunate relation attempted to drown herself. He replied that he did not care, she should not come to his house, and she might go and drown herself again if she liked. He then asked to see her sister, but he refused, and said that his wife should have nothino• to do with her. The young woman appeared deeply affected, and cried most bitterly. He offered to take her back to the workhouse until some thing could be done for her, but she did not like the idea of returning to the workhouse, and said that she would go to a frienq who had always behaved withthe greatest kindness to her, and on a previous occasion had got her a situation He inquired who it was, and she informed him. He be lieved that she was a respectable woman, and he left her to go there. Mr. WHITE expressed his regret that her brother-in-law would not protect her. Glass said that if he heard of any situation likely to suit her he had promised to inform her of it. Mr. WHITE commended him for his conduct, and said that he should always be happy to hear that she was doing well. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Mr. Edward Wells, the proprietor of the Sir Hugh Middleton Tavern, Sadler's Wells, was brought to this office on a warrant, charging him with having assaulted Mr. Mugglestone, surgeon, of Brewer -street, Somers'-town. Complainant being sworn, stated that on Friday night last he accompanied a gentleman, a friend of his, to Sadler's Wells Theatre, and after the performance they proceeded to the Sir Hugh Middleton Tavern for refreshment, the time being about twelve o'clock. Whilst before the bar a man struck his friend, and a quarrel ensued, which witness being anxious to quell, he appealed to Mr. Wells for pro tection. He, however, refused to afford it, on which wit ness said, " It seems that you know the party ;" when de fendant replied, "If you say so it's a lie." Witness ob served, " No, you are the liar," and Mr. Wells then struck him a violent blow on the eye. Mr. Wells said that on the night in question the com plainant and his friend entered his house, and the latter accused a hay salesman, who was standing before the bar, of stealing his spectades, and, moreover, struck him. Blows ham.. b been exchanged, Mr. Mugglestone interfered, and requested him to give him the name and address of the hay salesman. He (Mr. Wells) answered that he was un able to tell either, and that he only knew his trade ; when complainant called him a liar, and in the course of his abuse added every vulgar term to the uncourteous epithet, and did every thing to ruffle his temper. He certainly did tap him on the face with his open hand, but he positively denied the violence attributed to him. Mr. Sergeant SELLON thought the complainant bad brought it upon himself. It was not pleasant to be called a liar, and, under the circumstances, he should dismiss the warrant on payment of costs. Mr. Wells complied with the order of the worthy magis trate, and was immediately discharged. UNION-HALL. A short time back, a butcher named Heath, in the London-road, was held to bail at this office, on a charge of selling meat unfit for human food at ,his shop. On that occasion evidence was given by which it appeared that the carcase of a dead cow was observed in one of Lord Clifton's carts at the door of a slaughter-house in Pearl-row, Lam beth, where it underwent the process of dressing, and one portion of it was traced to Heath's shop, where it was cut up in joints for sale, and the other was sent to Newgate market. In consequence of the account which appeared in the newspapers, giving the particulars of the discovery, Mr. Marriott, Lord Clifton's steward, waited on the Ma gistrates yesterday, at his Lordship's request, for the pur pose of explaining some circumstances connected with the case. The steward then proceeded to state that at the time the report made its appearance in the newspapers, describing that the carcase of the cow was delivered at the slaughter-house from one of his Lordship's carts, he hap pened to be in Ireland, and he was not apprised of the facts, otherwise an application would have been made before at that office. He then said that one of Lord Clifton's cows died in consequence of inflammation, and that, being desirous of having it taken off the premises as speedily as possible, he (the steward) gave directions to Larkham, a man working under him, and in his Lordship's service, to call in a knacker, for the purpose of selling the dead carcase for dogs' meat. In compliance with those directions a man, who described himself a knacker, afterwards called and bargained with Larkham for the dead cow, which was sold to him for 2/. that being the usual price given by su c h persons, and that lie was ad companied by a man named Sittingbourn, living at Wands worth, who must be aware of his name - and address. The steward then adverted to the circumstance of the dead cow being brought to London in one of Lord Clifton's carts, and said that Larkham had lent it to the man who described himself as the knacker, without his (the steward's) sanction, and that he was not apprised of the fact until he saw it recorded in the newspapers. The act on the part of Lark ham was to be visited by his discharge from Lord Clifton's service. - Larkham, the man above alluded to, stated that he made the agreement with the knacker for the sale of the dead cow, and that when he came to fetch it away, he said that he had no cart sufficiently large to contain the carcase, and asked for the loan of one of his Lordship's carts to take it away. He (Larkham) complied with the request, under the idea that he was only going to take it a short distance ; but some hours having elapsed, he was surprised at the delay, and thought the knacker had stolen the cart ; but he at length made his appearance at night, and made some plausible excuse for his long absence with the vehicle, but never mentioned a word about his having been in London in the interval, or that he had delivered the carcase of the cow at a butcher's slaughter-house instead of at the knacker's yard.. He (Larkham) admitted that he had acted wrong in lending his Lordship's cart without the steward's sanction, but de clared that he was totally unconscious of what use the cart was employed in until he was apprised of what had hap pened in London by the steward. %Ir. TRAIL said that the employment of Lord Clifton's cart without his knowledge of the circumstances might, after all, be attended with some advantage, and lead to the dis covery of more important evidence in the prosecution of this case than they otherwise would have had. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.--LANCISTER, AUG. 18. (Before Mr. Baron GURNEY at Nisi Prius.) THE KING V. LORD. This was an indictment for perjury. The defendant, MrS. Ann Lord, is the relict of a Mr. Lawrence Lord, who, up to 1817, carried on the blanket-manufacture at Rochdale, in this county. In May, 1817, he (Mr. Law rence Lord) died, first having made his will, in which he bequeathed a sum of 8001. to each of his five daughters, with an annuity of 601. to his widow, the defendant, ap poititing Mr. John Lord, his brother, and three others, his executors. John Lord took the sole management of the trust, and managed the concern in conjunction with a Mr. Barnes, the partner of his deceased brother Lawrence. He, however, subsequently commenced business for himself, and, which, after carrying on for some years, he, in the year 1828, died, leaving some considerable property. Previous to his death he made his will, and left to the daughters of his brother Lawrence, to whom he was executor, a sum of 3001. each, upon the condition that they would not call on the executors of their father for an account of his assets. The legacy was left, as it was stated, from affection, but it was coupled with the foregoing condition. The four elder daughters received their 800/7 each, but Alice Lord, the younger had not come of age. Some time after the death of John Lord, his executors, who are his resi duary legatees, tendered the 3001. each to the five daugh ters, which was accepted by four of them. But Alice, the younger, who had not then received her 800/., refused to receive her 300/. ; her so doing, coupled with the condition would release her uncle's executors from the payment of the 800/. By advice she filed a bill in Chancery, and the Court ordered a reference to the master to report whether it would be for her benefit that the executors of her uncle should furnish an account of the disposition of the assets of her father. The Master reported that it would be for her benefit to file a bill to call on her uncle's executors (the present prosecutors) to furnish an account, which they did, and by those accounts it appeared that John Lord bad re ceived, as executor of Lawrence, a sum of 19,000/., which in working that concern, and another he subsequently em barked in, realized a profit of nearly 9,0001. Upon this appearing the prosecutors, who were named residuary lega tees, were called upon for an account of these different su ms. In the course of these proceedings it was necessary that the defendant, Mrs. Ann Lord, should make an affi davit, which she did, in which she swore that the late John Lord, after her husband's death, managed the business not only as executor but as a partner, having a small share in the concern. It was on this affidavit that perjury was al leged, it having been denied that such was the case. In support of the prosecution, several proceedings in Chancery were put in, and evidence was called to show that John Lord acted only in the character of an executor, and not in that of a partner. Mr. Pw.Locx, for the Defendant, reprobated the pro secution in a most eloquent speech. He contended that it was a base experiment upon the weakness of an aged fe male, who made an affidavit in matters in which she was by no means interested, and which was in point of fact true. He had no language to express the indignation which he felt upon the occasion, and he was sure it pervaded the minds of those he had the honour to address, and under that conviction he fearlessly demanded an acquittal for his client. Mr. Baron GURNEY summed up the evidence, and the Jury immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—GLOUCESTER, Aua. 18. ELECTION RIOTS. William Grey, Alexander Tottor, and John Gearge pleaded guilty to a charge of having riotously assaulted John Cook and Charles Gillman. Mr. FRANCILLON stated that the riots to which the de fendants had pleaded guilty occurred on the first day of the polling for the East Gloucestershire election, and that a party of between 500 and 600 men, many of them armed with bludgeons, had assembled, and broke the windows of two of the hotels at Cheltenham. His LORDSHIP sentenced each of the defendants to be imprisoned for three months. Henry Young and Joseph Pardoc, two bargemen, were charged with robbing William Barrett of two sovereigns, three ten-pound notes, and eight five-pound notes. Many witnesses deposed to circumstances connecting the prisoners with the robbery, and the Jury found them Guilty. The prisoners were again charged with robbing Thomas Gibbs of 4s. The Jury found both the prisoners Guilty. The prisoner Parnoe strongly asserted his innocence on this last charge, and the other prisoner fell down in a fit. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS ordered judgment of death to be recorded against both the prisoners. REPORTED MURDER of TIMOTHY O'BRIEN, AT ISLINGTON, BY TRADES' UNIONISTS. CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held on view of the body of the above unfortunate man, at the White Swan, Islington, when the following evidence was given : Mr. Edward Clipper Dillon, surgeon, of Clarke-place, Islington, on Sunday last, about three o'clock, was called upon to attend the deceased, whom he found lying in bed at a house in Parsley's-court, Islington. He was dead, but not quite cold. Being satisfied he could do nothing for him, he called in several persons to inquire respecting the deceased's death, when he was informed that he had been struck by a man under the right ear. On Monday witness took a post nzortem examination of the body. He found a swelling under the right ear of a bluish colour, a scratch on the left shoulder, with a bluish mark around it, and the Lick part of the body was of a livid colour, as also the face. There was an effusion of blood on the brain, produced by the rupture of a blood-vessel. The injuries were sufficient to cause death. Thomas Costellolived in Parsley's-court, Islington. About three o'clock on Sunday last, he saw a man named Dunn and deceased in that court. The latter want3d Dunn to fight him, and they sparred together, and the deceased fell down. Dunn then said deceased could not fight, and pushed him in his own house, which is close to witness's, against his will. While deceased was scuffling with Dunn, a man called Pat Carney came up, and struck the former over the eye , saying at the time, " Tim, what have you to say about me ?" Witness then walked away, and was unable to say what happened afterwards. John Tye, shoemaker, of George-court, Islington, stated that the man Carney, who is now in custody, lodged in his house. Last Sunday afternoon, at three o'clock, he was at his own house when Carney came in and said that O'Brien (d ece ased) and his wife were following him. Witness looked out of the window and saw the deceased and his wife com ing down the court. His wife was endeavouring to prevent his coming along, but he persisted and endeavoured to force his way into witness's house. Deceased's wife pulled him b ac k, for doing which he struck her. Witness blocked up the door, and when deceased found he could not gain ad mittance, he exclaimed, " Send him out and I'll knock his brains out." Shortly after Carney went out by a side door and knocked deceased down. Deceased's wife took up mud and stones and pelted Carney, who came in the house again. Juror—Was Carney drunk?—Witness--I cannot say. H e generally got drunk on Sundays. The CORONER summed up the evidence in his usual clear manner, and the Jury, after viewing the body, re turned the following verdict—" Manslaughter against Pa trick Carney," who was committed to Newgate. The masons of Newcastle have " struck," it seems, for an adv a n ce of wag es; t h ey requ i re twen ty instead of e ighteen shillings a week. We did hope that the " strike" of the pitmen, which proved so disastrous both to the employers and the employed, more especially to the latter, would have taught workmen of every description, in this district at least, the folly of adopting such a course.—Tyne Mercury. ON THE FREQUENCY -OF SUICIDE IN FRANCE. The inclination to suicide, to whatever first cause it may be attributed, is from its very nature more contagious than is generally believed ; it tends, like all nervous affections, to increase by imitation ; no medical man doubts of this. It is, therefore, much 'to be lamented that the journals publish accounts of the suicides so frequent at this moment, and give details of all the attendant circumstances. These imprudent revelations, intended only to excite the feelings of their readers by tragical emotions, have much more fatal consequences on some constitutions ; they familiarize the mind to the idea of a voluntary death, sometimes even suggest the mode, and frequently bring on the sad catas trophe by the uncontrollable effects of example. We have no hesitation in saying that the publicity given to cases of suicide provokes at the same time the commission of it. It is, therefore, to be wished that the daily press should reject all communications of the kind. The sort of suicide epidemic which appears to be prevalent at this mo ment, would certainly decrease if the knowledge of it was kept back, whereas publicity does but nourish it. Our readers being of a particular class, we are enabled to make a few observations on this serious subject, without running the risk of deserving the blame we attribute to the general press. It is even possible, if not probable, that some of the journals of the widest circulation, and most sought after for this sort of matter, may pay a little atten tion to our warning, and that they may in future be less prodigal of these fatal recitals, the tendency of which the authors are ignorant of. Suicide sometimes assumes an epidemical character. History gives many examples of this strange phenomenon. We find in Plutarch that at a time when the young women and girls of Miletos were in great affliction at beirv , de prived of the society of their husbands, lovers, and brothers almost all gone to the wars, a great number hung them selves, and as if to imitate each other. At the time of the Ptolemies, a Stoic philosopher hav ing delivered in public, at Alexandria, an elegant apology for suicide, a great number of his hearers, carried away by his eloquence, put an end to their existence. Sydenham relates that in the month of June, 1697, in the town of Mansfield, without any assignable cause, numerous cases of suicide occurred : the same thing took place in the summer of 1811, at Stutgardt ; in 1803, at Rouen ; in 1813, at the village of Saint-Pierre-Monjeau, in the Va lais. M. Esquirol, who states these examples (Diet. of Med. Sc.), relates also, that, in 1793, there were 1,300 suicides at Versailles—an immense number, when the po pulation of the town is considered._ It would be easy to find in history many similar facts. These fact prove that, though suicide is generally an iso lated act, provoked by circumstances purely personal, it may sometimes, by the influence of causes more or less defin able, become so frequent, that the writers have assimilated it to an epidemic. We do consider that the suicides which have occurred of late, and of which the papers daily speak, are sufficiently frequent to form a positive epidemic, such as those related above. They are, besides, for the most part, as far as the facts can be ascertained, produced by various causes, whereas many of the epidemics found in history originated in a general cause, such as public misfortunes, generally spread religious notions, &q. Still, the increase in the number of suicides is so great at present, as to evince a serious change in what we may call the moral constitution of society. Thus, as we designate under the appellation of medical constitution, the general conditions, whether at mospherical, whether medical, which predispose for a cer tain time rather to certain diseases than to others, or which mingle together symptoms general and common to or dinary diseases, so we may suppose, in the intellectual and moral order, variations analogous to those in the physical order, which influence the common train of the passions and ideas, as the former do the constitution. The researches after these causes:are always very difficult. We can do little more than seize the generalities, always too vague, since comprehending the wh o l e they explain no thing. No doubt each suicide has its own cause, and the more usually definable ; in many cases it is the effect of mania, of hypochondria, or some other shade of madness ; most frequently it is but an act of despair, brought about by a sudden reverse of fortune, the fear of dishonour, or unfortunate love ; these causes are in most cases known. But why do not these causes act with the same force at all times ? The circumstances arising from situations which may lead to suicide, exist much the same amongst civilized nations ; there are at all times ruined gamblers, deceived lovers, disappointed ambition, in short, desperate situations ; but why is a voluntary death at certain times looked upon as the only means of safety ? Under the tyranny of the emperors at the time of the dissolution of the empire, the most distinguished Romans killed themselves with a readiness which is to us astonish ing. Suicide, decided on after reflection, was looked upon as an act of virtue ; it became a fashion among the sect of the Stoics, and it was difficult to conceive that an honest man, a citizen, could die otherwise. The Mexicans and the Peruvians, after the conquest of their country and the destruction of their religion and laws, killed themselves in despair. Thousands perished in this manner. But public calamities and tyranny do not always produce the same effect. Other nations similarly situated submit to the yoke, revolt,or emigrate. The 1,300 suicides at Versailles, in 1793, may be accounted for by the unparalleled misfor tunes of the time ; but how many other towns are there not less ravaged by the revolution, which offer nothing of the kind ? In Paris, even during the time of the Terreur, the num ber of suicides did not exceed the usual number. Why such different effects with the existence of like causes That is what neither history nor statistical calculations can teach us. The tendency to suicide, independent of the exterior causes to which it may be attributed, would seem to be also influenced by a seeret agency quite special, as being the law or the regulator of its development. Without pre tending to lay down our opinion as law, we think that the bias to imitation must be placed foremost as causing this influence. This tendency to repeat physical actions, or moral impressions, is inherent in the nature of man and of animals—it is one of the most active agents in producing sociability : this is demonstrated by numberless facts. In cases of illness the propensity to imitation has been re marked by all the observers. All nervous affections are liable to be transmitted by this means. We think it useless to support this assertion by proofs which are to be met with everywhere. It will suffice, then, if we show the particular share this influence has in the propagation of suicide, in the midst of the general causes which are the fountain head. In our time the exterior causes which may lead to the idea of suicide are very numerous in France, and especially in the capital, The high state of civilization—the great fortunes—the clashing of interests—the repetition of poli tical commotions, keep the mind in a state of extraordinary moral tension. Life does not run on smoothly and regularly ; it precipitates itself like a torrent. All extremes meet and shock each other ; in all the careers in which human activity is employed, there is an anxiety to reach the gaol at a gallop : honours, riches, power, glory, renown, seem to have no value in the pretenders' eyes, if they are to be earned by the sweat of their brows ; they must be obtained by surprise, by coups declats—space must be cleared at one step, place an abyss between the yesterday and the to to-morrow, and nothing is attempted, but all or nothing. In the midst of this terrible confusion, the majority re mains in the rear, and the small minority, which has risen so suddenly, frequently falls with the same rapidity it had ascended. Such a life must create many misfortunes, re grets, despair, moral wounds, and afterwards a distaste for life. Such, in part, are most generally the causes of sui cide. To this must be added the state of licentiousness of the public spectacles, which present unpunished crime, human miseries without consolation, without moral coun terpoise ; and this vulgar literature, infested with a bastard philosophy, declaiming against society, against human insti tutions, against all the forms of the duty of man, and the exe cution of which is a duty ; which celebrates the vengeful assassination, absolves highwaymen, under the pretence that the state of society is unbearable, and that recognizes no genius but when accompanied in its march by spleen, poi son, and a pair of pistols. All persons who frequent the theatres, who read novels, • will agree that we do not exaggerate. These causes -produce suicide, pervert the ideas, by up setting individual situation ; they sow the first seed in the mind which the first occasion brings to bear. That these vague influences to moral disorder assume the shape of sui cide, it is only necessary that a few examples, accompanied with striking details, repeated by a thousand tongues, beset the imagination already predisposed, and offer to put an end to their misfortunes. An unfortunate wretch has killed himself, why should not I, who am unfortunate, do the like ? Is my case less desperate ? Have I not, the same reasons for hating life ? Such is the first link in• the chain of reason ing provoked by the • example of suicide, and logic soon brings on the consequence. Two young men of 30 had en tered into trade together, and their business was prospe rous. The younger, for what reason no one knows, blows out his brains ; a week after the other does precisely the same thing. This occurred under our own eyes not more than a fortnight ago. Even the mode of execution is pointed out by the instinct of imitation. The women of Miletos hung themselves ; the women of Lyons, towards the middle of the last century, threw them selves into the Rhone—now they throw themselves from a rock, or suffocate themselves with the fumes of charcoal.— Latterly every suicide has been followed by its fellow, exe cuted in the same manner. It is to this fatl;T inexplicable contagion of example that may be attributed, in part, the numerous suicides which we have heard of, without real eauses existing. But, then, - causes would not always produce the fatal result, were it not for the. additional influence of example. The medi ca l p ro f essor h as no direct advice to offer against a malady placed so far beyond his reach, the causes of which a re , moreover , so - multiplied and general, as causes escape even the legislator, to whom the moral and mat_e: rial direction of soc i e ty is confided. Suicide is one of th distinctive attribute s o f the human species. Nothing . eradicate it from the earth ; so that medical, no ti.ol.e thatt morel, or political s c i ence , can indicate a preve ntion to .so fatal a propensity. B u t if it s original causes cannot b._ reached, those causes may b e i n dicated which propagate and favour it, and of this number publicity given to cat's" t trophes of the land is certainly one. In indulging b, reflections, we have aimed less at fathoming the gene r , 3 o causes of suicide, which are too deeply implante d in t' heart of man and in his social state to be removed , than at indicating the only means likely to avail of diminishing th e frequency of such a crime. These means arc absolu silence as to the facts, of suicide. We give this c ounsel which will, no doubt, be more approved than followed. Gazette Illedicale. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. 20. VESSELS.
