What he had to say he would say rather I sorrow than in anger.—(Hear, hear.) The matter lay an a nutshell. Alderman Thompson had voted against the Ministers, and on one of those points which, as a can didate, he had pledged himself to give his assistance. Though there was something to palliate, there was no thing to justify such conduct. It was an error of the judgment, but, he trusted, it would end there. The sub ject would end there also, he hoped, and the Alderman would the more warmly respect his constituents for prov ing themselves so much alive to the importance of the mea sure of Reform, and to the character of their representa tives..`-(Hear.)—The time had arrived when discretion au well as integrity vas a necessary ingredient in a &leather of Parliament.—(Hear, hear. hear.) Mr. Coates concluded by moving, " That that meeting of the Liv ery of London, after a full and ample inquiry into the vote of Mr. Alderman Thompson, relative to the borough of Appleby, and his explanation of the same, are opi of nion that he acted therein inadvertently "IN Alderman Thompson baying renewed his pledge to give entire support to the Reform Bill, this meeting leel themselves called upon to continue their confidence t u, Ur. Alderman Thompson, as one of the Representa tives of the City of London in Parliament." Mr. WILLIAMS would expect that Alderman Thomp son would pl e d ge hi mse lf t o g iv e his support in future to 4 thilters in every stage and point of the measure. Mr. PRITCHARD said that the Alderman's subsequent tt m es_ . on Tu e sd a y night, proved his intention to stick to Ministers. A ir. STEVENS (of Bishopsgate) said, that in all the nutnerous communications he, as Chairman of the Reform Committees at Guildhall, had had with Alderman Thomp son, that Hon. Member showed the utmost regard for the Public interest. It ir• Howard., did not wish that the word inadvertently mi ght be introduced, except, indeed, the Al6rman ad mitted that he had acted inadvertently. Alderman THoatrsott—l do mean that I acted in advertently in the fullest sense of the word.—(Hear.) The motion was, after a few words from Mr. Ebenezer Taylor, Mr. Heppell, Mr. Thornhill, Mr. Ware, Mr. t "lgins, and Mr. Peacock, unanimously agreed to, and ' l inks having been voted to the Chairman, the meeting Separated. Several of the gentlemen who constituted the meeting, expressed th e i r conviction that the Press, which had done suc h immense service to the cause of Reform, would com municate what had occurred on that day at the Guildhall, aj an exampl e t o o th er pl ace s, of the jealousy with which neY looked at any conduct which appeared to them, upon " momentous an occasion, to be questionable.

The KING arrived at St. James's Palace about half-past one o'clock this day, when shortly after a Privy Council was held, at which the RECORDER of London made his report of the prisoners under sentence of death in Newgate. After much preliminary discussion, the House of Commons resolved itself into a Committee upon the Reform Bill, when Sir R. PEEL pro posed an insidious amendment on schedule A, that the word " each" be left out, which amend ment, if carried, would have effectually vitiated the clause, but which was lost by a majority in favour of Ministers of 97. In the course of the discussion Mr. HUNT drivelled forth his usual abundance of balderdash. This Hon. Gentleman reminds us forcibly of those orators in the American Congress, who chatter on every subject, without possessing the slightest knowledge of any, and whom Jonathan, therefore, with infinite propriety, terms " slang whangers." Mr. HUNT is a " slang-whanger" of the very first water. In fact he is a perfect gem —a chrysolite. Had he lived in the days'of Gre cian history, he would have been second only to THERSITES. At present he is matchless. We point attention to the recent divisions on the Reform Bill, and the illustration therein given of the four-and-twenty nominees of Boroughmongers, who figure in the last (seventh) division. They remind us of the old song of the " Four-and-twenty Tailors all in a row." We have news from Poland to the sth inst., and all favourable. The accounts from Lithu ania are very cheering ; the insurrection spreads in every direction, and to a considerable ex tent. The boasted victory claimed by the Russians at Wilna turns out, as we predicted, to have been of no importance whatever. The fact was, that General GIELGUD, on the 19th of June, had, with part of his corps, undertaken a strong reconnoissance towards Wilna, but the enemy having collected their whole force at that place, advanced against the General in such numbers, that he could not hope to gain a battle ; he therefore retired to his former position, and, in the sequel, two marches farther from Wilna. The last accounts from Lithuania are to the 23d June. The organiza tion of new regiments proceeded rapidly, and the whole army was in high spirits. The loss on the 19th was some hundreds killed and wounded on each side. Generals DEMBINSKI and SZY MANOUSKI were not engaged, the former acting against \Vilna on the other side, and the latter being detached against Polangen. It was expected at Warsaw that the General in-Chief would shortly resume offensive opera_ tions, and attack the main army of the Russians. One successful battle would, in the present state of things, effectually achieve the independence of Poland; The generous sympathy of the Hunga rians in favour of the Poles is worthy of praise. Thirty-two communes or districts of Hungary have petitioned, in eloquent and forcible terms, the Emperor of AUSTRIA, for permission to succour the Poles, their ancient allies. They insist that this demand be taken into serious consideration, and that measures be taken, at the.approaching Diet, which opens in five days ; they pray the EMPEROR to authorise them to send arms and ammunition to Poland ! According to a Correspondent of the Morn ing Chronicle, the Russians must be ma'cing extraordinary exertions to reinforce their armies, and, from the losses experienced by them, all are requisite. In the corps of RUDIGER alone are 2,000 young Jews, whose original destination was the marine. It is now ascertained that the expedition to Tykoczyn cost the Guards 3,600 men, and that the battle of Ostrolenka put 13,000 hors de combat. On entering Lomza the whole of one regiment was found to consist of 180, and another of 146 men. The inquiry into the conduct of the con spirators had not finished on the 4th ; but the greatest unanimity and cordiality prevailed in the capital : Wax SA w, Juror 4.—Prince Czartoryski, Pr es id ent of the National Govern ment, has issued two proclam at i ons, dated the Ist and 2 d i nstant, the first to the nation, Calling on a general participation in the Landsturm which is to be organised, and the other to the army, exhorti ng i t to exert itself to the utmost in the decisive struggle which iv at hand. The National Government has ordered an extraordinary court-martial t© be appointed.to try Generals Hurteg, Jan kowski, and Salazki, Colonel Stupecki, M. Lessel, the chamberlain, Fenshone, and Madame Bazanow ; Brigadier- General Wengierski, is President of this court-martial. The Warsaw Courier of to-day says—" The committee appointed to examine the papers of the persons arrested on the 29th of last month, is said to have completed its task, and to have delivered its report to the National Government. On the 29th, a courier from Lithuania arrived in the capital with several reports from Generals Gielgud and Chrapowaki, to the Commander-in-Chief, who has com municated to the Government a report on the operations of the former, from 26th M ly to 15th June, and of the latter from the 21st May to the 11th June, Our General-in-Chief bas also addressed to the Go vernment a report, dated the 2d, from his head-quarters at Watsaw, in which he announces that he has received a report from General Gielgud, who informs him, that on the 19th June he had, with part of 'his corps ; undertaken a strong reconnoissance towards %Vilna, • but the enemy having collected their whole force at that place, advanced against the General in such numbers that he could not hope to gain a battle ; he therefore retired to his former position, and, in the sequel, two marches farther from Wilna. The last accounts from Lithuania are to the 23d June. The . organ'zation of new regiments proceeded ra pidly, and the whole army was in high spirits. The loss on the 19th was some hundreds killed and wounded on each side. Generals Dembinski and Szymanouski were not engaged, the former acting against Wilna on the other side, and the latter being detached against Polangen. The State Gazette stys, " Field-Marshal Paskewitsch joined the Russian army on the 25th ult. He tra velled by way of Johannisberg and Dlottowen to Lotnza : he first received the detachments of troops there, and on the following days reviewed the other troops in their respective cantonments. On this account the advanced detachments fell back to their main corps, for instance, from Stoczek and Scroezyn, in Podlachia, and from Plonsk, in Pluck. Of the divi sion which arrived under the command of General Kai saraff, there were, on the 24th of June, about four thou sand men near Zatnosc, who occupied the plain between that fortress and the Austrian frontiers. No detachments of this corps had advanced to Pulawy, as one of our Jour nals has erroneously stated." The same Paper says :—" It is reported the cot pa of General Kreutz has followed Generals Kuruta and Knor ring, to act against the insurgents in Lithuania. We learn also, that the reason why General Rudiger crossed the 'Wiessing was, to bring two thousand cavalry to the main army through Podlachia. In the province of Plozk. the Russians have withdrawn from the district of Lepnow ; they have also left Plozk, hut it seems that they mean to maintain the line of operations from Wiszagrod to Pul tusk. In Podlachia there are only detached patrols in the environs of Siediec." The same paper says a Provisional Central Govern ment is organised in Lithuania, of which the Senator Tyostkiewicz, formerly a General in the Polish army, is President. The Government is chiefly occupied in raising troops, and procuring necessaries for them ; the Lithu anian regiments are organised like ours. The regular organised cavalry amounted on the 15th ult. to six thousand men. According to all accounts, says the Warsaw Courier, " The enemy's army is falling hack on the whole line, some corps are marching in all haste to Lithuania, to act against the insurgents, whose numbers increase daily. The Lithuanian troops are already under the command of General Skrzynecki. At Nasulsk our troops took a spy, who had 212 ducats in his pockets. The insurgents from the other side of the Durra have already joined us ; our 19th regiment is close to the Baltic tinder General Szymanowski." The Polish Gazette says, General Chrapowski is to have the chief command in Lithuania. It is said that Po langen is taken by our troops. The General-in-Chief has proposed to the Government to take measures against the cholera, which has broken out in the province of Plozk, as it may perhaps be neces sary for the main army to operate in that province. FRONTIERS OF POLAND, JOLT 2.---The accounts from the neighbouring province of Angustowo do not quite agree. On the other hand we hear th it General Gielgud on his return from his unsuccessful expedition t,) Lithuania has already passed that province, and is on the way t o Lornzi, where large detachments of Russian troops of the main army have arrived, in order to take the retreating Poles between two files ; but on the other hand it is said that regular Polish troops had been seen near the village of Gingen, opposite to the town of Augustowo, and close to the Prussian frontiers, and that it seems that Polish troops are concealed in the woods, and are secretly pro ceeding along the frontier. It is added, that the Russian troops under Generals Pass and Alferief bad marched from Angustowo to Raygrod, where Gerstenzwig was expected on the 2d instant. POLISH FRONTIERS, JULY s.—According to accounts from Warsaw, the Polish troops under General Skrzy necki are said to have resumed offensive operations, and to be marching against the Russian army. General Sier aw.ki is to command the reserve in Praga, for the strength ening of which position heavy artillery had arrived from Zamosc. AMSTERDAM, JULY 12.

LISBON, JUNE 21.—The ship Piedade, which arrived yesterd iy with the mail from Rio Janeiro, has brought us journals and accounts from that capital, which relate events that have been foreseen for many years by all sensible men who are not deluded by the prepossessions and the language of the Utopians. The following docu ment, printed and published in that. capital, render it neces sary for us to detail particulars : Here follow the Emperor's abdication, the nomination of the Regency, and other documents. Extract from the Agent to LLOYD'S at Gijon, dated Ist July : " The Spanish Gazette of yesterday, arrived from Madrid, states that the Portuguese Government bad issued letters of marque against the French." The Livery of London held a meeting yes terday to enquire into the conduct of Alderman THOMPSON, as concerned his late vote against Ministers upon the question of the Appleby petition. The object of this enquiry was him self present on the occasion, and by way of apology for his vote, frankly acknowledged that he had not heard a single syllable of the debate which gave rise to it. In other words he voted, without knowing whether he was voting for or against Reform ; whether he was falsifying, or whether he was fulfilling his pledge. Such remissness, blameable at all times, is, on a great national question like Reform, with which the welfare of millions is bound up, and on the success or failure of which depends the happiness or misery of Great Britain, perhaps of Europe, perfectly intolerable. We know of nothing that can jus tify it. As for the Worthy Alderman's apo logy, it rather aggravates the offence than othenrise ; at any rate it damns him as a public man for ever, for if he can en dure to be caught slumbering on a question of such paramount importance as Reform, what service can be expected from him in cases of minor public interest, but which at the same time demand zeal and activity And yet, if we re member rightly, the worthy Alderman was shrewd and zealous enough in his opposition to Ministers on the subject of the timber duties. He did not vote then without knowing what he was voting about. He was all life and energy when he opposed Government : he is tame and negligent only, it seems, when called on to support them. We dislike this emasculated—this eunuch sort of friendship. We repudiate the undecided principles which perpetually vibrate between two extremes of conduct, and adhere to neither. Henceforth let Alderman THOMP SON belong either to the Ministry or the Opposition. Let him enlist under the banners either of Sir ROBERT PEEL or Lord JOHN RUSSELL. But let him not play the game of " fast and loose" with both parties. Let him not, like a certain animal between two bundles of hay, ogle first the one and then the other, but choose his bundle and stick to it. We throw out this hint from no ill feeling towards the worthy Alderman. We believe him to be in the main a well intentioned man, though no SOLOMON, and do not forget his pathetic allusion, some few years since, to Eastcheap, from whose classic Ward he asserted that he had derived his most romantic recollections. He was " cradled" there, we believe he said ; and certainly East cheap has reason to be proud of such a babe ! We cannot quit this subject without congratu lating the Livery on their prompt and spirited conduct. They have already done a world of good, and deserve the grateful acknowledgments of the country. The Opposition will henceforth see and feel that the people are really in earnest on the subject of Reform ; and that all rats--as such vermin should be—will be at once exter minated. Due. Our readers will find in another column a report of a trial "DEACLE V. BARING and others," which is one of the most flagrant cases of injustice and oppression we ever read. It seems that during the late unfortunate riots in Hants, a Mr. DEACLE, who was described as a gentleman by birth, conduct, and education, was, together with his wife, a lady in a delicate state of health, taken into custody at the insti gation of the defendants, handcuffed, tossed into a common coal cart, treated with the most insulting con tumely—(particularly by a Mr. BINGHAM BARING, who put " his arm round the lady's waist and carried her into the cart, letting her legs dangle one way and her head the other," and who struck the gentleman a severe blow with a stick, for advising his wife to sit quie in the vehicle) —and lodged like common felons in gaol. When the charge, upon which these two persecuted individuals were arrested, was entered into, not a shadow of criminality could be alleged against them ; consequently they were both ho nourably acquitted. The case, however, did not end here, . for Mr. DEACLE very properly brought an action against the defendants for ar rest and false imprisonment, and as our readers will perceive, recovered a verdict of 501. against Mr. B. BARING for battery. The trial excited great interest in the neighbourhood, and the general feeling appeared to be, that if the plain tiff had recovered 5,0001. instead of 50/. from all the defendants, as well as from one, the justice of the case would not have been overdone. We call readily enter into this feeling on the part of Mr. DEACLE'S neigh bours, for surely a more aggravated case of oppression never came under the notice of the public. We can scarcely believe that it took place on English ground, so closely does it resemble one of those despotic acts which we read of in Turkey or Russia. What, arrest a gentleman and his wife—insult them—treat them as common felons—consign them to a filthy dungeon without being able to substantiate even the ghost of a charge against them—is such atro cious conduct to be tolerated in a country like England, so proverbially tenacious of the liberty of the subject? Is the Magistracy—never even in the most brilliant instances, remark able for sagacity or discretion—to be per mitted to exercise such monstrous power with impunity ? To arrest ad libitum ; to insult, as caprice and innate vulgarity of mind and spirit dictate; to imprison, according as it seemeth best to their purblind understandings ? Are the Magistracy, we repeat the question, to be allowed to exercie this power with impunity ? If so, adieu to the boasted freedom of English. men ! Justice is a farce, and the liberty of the subject a mere dream—an empty phrase—an idle mockery. We hope the LORD CHAN• CELLOR will institute a prompt and rigid in quiry into the conduct of these Magistrates. As the case at present stands, our impression is that every man among them should be struck out of the Commission, as a salutary warning to other Justice Shallows. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The accounts from Warsaw state, that the defence which that city can make at present is of so powerful a de scription that they have not the least fear of its being taken by the Russians. It was expected that General Toll before the arrival of Paskewitsch would have made an attempt to take Warsaw, but his means were not suffi cient, although his force amounted to 65,000 men. The insurrection in Lithuania extends more and more. Private accounts from Genoa state that the new alli ance between Sardinia and Austria is no longer a mystery, and the King of Sardinia is assembling an army at Navarre of 60,000 men, which is to join the Austrian army in the neighbourhood of Milan, which is to consist of 140,000 men, and are to be under the command of Charles Albert. From Milan they state that on the sth of July, and for several days past, that town has been the rendezvous of the partisans of the Ex-Royal Family of France, and that they are well received at Court.

By the French express this morning, it appears that all was quiet in the French capital, and it was expected that tranquillity would be preserved, as the Government had taken the necessary precautions. which left ff .

Th e p r ivate letters by the Lisbon mail are entirely void of interest; two or three more ships have been captured by the French squadron. The private accounts from Paris say that every de pendence can be pled in the National Guards, and they do not expect that disturbances will take place. The Speculators there will not do much in the French funds during the month of July. Th e private letters from the Hague this morning state, on the King of Holland receiving the eighteen articles of the Treaty of Peace he was greatly exasperated, since which he has become more calm, and it is expected he will agree to them. .• - It is generally believeved in the City that Prince Leo pold takes his departure to-morrow evening for Brussels. The Consol Market is rather heavy, owing to there b e ing a good supply of stock, as well as a report that the Ki n g of Holland will not agree to the 18 articles of the treaty of peace, which report is not credited by the well informed. Consols reached in the early part of the morn ing s3-1 i - for the Account, after which they went down to s 3a ; at present they are 83a 1, with little doing. Up to the present hour we have no fresh accounts from the theatre of war in Poland. Eighty ships, laden with provisions and ammunition, have arrived in the port of Danizic, for the Russian army. In the Foreign Market nothing doing. This is settling d a y for Foreign Stock —up to this time we have not heard of any failures. Consols, 831 THREE O'CLOCK. The " army of observation" stationed on the t h e northern frontier of France, will, by all accounts, amount to one hundred and forty thousand men before the end of this month. The regiments ordered to take the direction display the greatest enthusiasm. The interviews of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and the Spanish Am bassador are very frequent.

The Duchess of CAMBRIDGE, attended by the Baroness AHLEFELDT and Sir lamas Ittvriarr, honoured the Duke and Duchess of NORTHUMBERLAND with her company at dinner, on Wednesday evening, at Northumberland-house. Prince LEOPOLD came to town yesterday afternoon, from his residence at Claremont. The Duchess of KENT, the reigning Duke of SAXE COBURG, and the Prince of LELNINGEN, visited the Duchess of CAMBRIDGE yesterday. The Duchess of CAMBRIDGE honoured the Earl and Countess of JERSEY with her company at dinner last even ing, at their residence in Berkeley-squAre. A numerous meeting of the Lords of his Majesty's most Honourable Privy Council was held at one o'clock yester day, at the Council-office. There were present their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of SUSSEX and GLOUCESTER, the LORD CHANCELLOR, the Archbishop Of CANTERBURY, the Bishop of LONDON, the Lord President, the First Lord of the Treasury, the Secretaries of Stste for the Home and Colonial Departments, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the Secretary of State for Ireland, the Paymaster of the Forces, the Master of the Horse, the Lord Steward, the Grootr of the Stole, the Earl Marshal, the Deputy Great Chamberlain, the Earl of CARLISLE, the Duke of RICHMOND, and Lord HOLLAND. The meeting, it was understood, was for the purpose of making arrangements respecting the Coronation. Their Lordships remained about two hours assembled, Mr. GREVILLE attended as Clerk of the Privy Council. • _ A conference of the Ministers of the Great Powers was held yesterday afternoon, at the Foreign-office. It was attended by the Russian, Austrian, and French Ambassa dors, the Prussian Minister, Count MATUSCEWITZ, the Russian Envoy Extraordinary, and Viscount PALMERSTON. The conference lasted between two and three hours. Viscount GODERICH entertained the Cabinet Ministers at dinner on Wednesday evening, at his residence in Privy gardens. Major-General Sir AncinnALn CAMPBELL left town yesterday for New Brunswick, of which colony he has recently been appointed Lieutenant-Governor. THE CORONATION.: Preparations have commenced already for his Majesty's Coronation. This morning the workmen were busily em gaged in removing the temporary depository for the Re cords in Westminster-hall, which is to undergo an imme diate cleansing. The Records are deposited in the King's Mews. It is remarkable that not a drop of rain fell at Virginia Water during their AIAJESTIES' stay there on Tuesday, whilst at Windsor, and even so far as Cumber land Lodge, it rained in torrents. The LORD CHANCELLOR has appointed Mr. BLUNT, of the Chancery Bar, to the Commissionership of Bankrupt. iacaut by the death of Mr. btrnv. The announcement of the second reading of the Reform Bill was received in this city with demonstra• Lions of almost universal satisfaction. The bells of the churches early on Friday morning, with merry peals, an nounced the welcome tidings, and continued ringing at intervals during the whole day. It is rumoure'l that the unceasing clang drove several of the birds of prey, who have built their nests in the church, out of the city for the whole day. Probably a few more such ringings will rid us of them altogether.—Lincoln Times. We are 14py to notice that the export trade, the chief vent for which is at Liverpool, has been parti cularly brisk during the last month. Cotton manufactures were exported to the value of upwards of eleven hundred thousand pounds. Woollen manufactures, which were thought some time ago to be decaying, to the value of nearly six hundred thousand pounds, and the infant manu facture of silks, has exceeded eighteen thousand pounds for the month only. —Liverpool Courier. ST. SWITHIN'S DAY.—A gentlemen who has examined the truth of the popular adage respecting the " forty days' rain," has observed, that in nineteen cases out of twenty, if it rain on the 15th July, it will rain for above five weeks. CIVIL LIST PENSIONS.—The estimate of the sum required to provide for the payment of certain salaries, allowances, pensions, and services heretofore paid out of the Civil List for England and Ireland, the here ditary revenues of the Crown in Scotland, and the Four and a nag per Cent. duty, but for which no provision has been made in the Civil List of his present AIAJESTY, from the periods to which the said services were severally last paid, to the sth July, 1831, is 240,0001. clear of fees and all other deductions. The influenza, which has been so prevalent in London, and at Exeter, Plymouth, &c., is at present very rife at Falmouth, where whole families have been affected. Happily, though severe in the commencement, it is rarely dangerous. All the letters from Italy mention that a con siderable Austrian army is now concentrating in the en virons of Milan. The Piedmontese troops which had been marched towards the frontiers of the Austrian possessions, are now on their way to Savoy. Our Ministers are no doubt acquainted with those dispositions, and Marshal SOULT is preparing, we hope, to act both in the south and in the north. A new comedy in five acts, entitled The Schad fur. Coquettes, was last night produced for the first time at thiS Theatre. It is from the pen of Mrs. Goau, and is a lively, agreeable play. The linguage is invariably good, if not witty, and the situations comic and well imagined. The plot is something to the following effect :—Lady Honoria Howard, a young married Ldy, doubting the warmth of her husband's affection, determines to excite his feelings by her coquetry. In this she is unexpectedly Assisted by the arrival of an early friend, Frederick Lumley, who has made a clandestine marriage, and whose wife she takes into her house under a false name. A number of suspicious circumstances arise out of this, which at last are the cause of her forfeiting her husband's confidence and her parents' affection. From the warmth. of her husband's conduct, and the discovery of a duel, she learns the extent of her power over him, and at the same time is taught the danger of involving herself in the charms of coquetry. The characters in the piece are not very striking, or original, still they contrive to furnish much entertainment. Miss TAYLOR, a very sprightly and versatile young actress, performed the part of Honoria, and showed that she possesses the true vis cornica. Her manner was arch and animated, wit).- out trespassing on ease or elegance. She is a great acqui sition to the Haymarket. The remaining characters wtra well sustained, and the play was decidedly successful. A little curtailinew, however, would do it no harm. The epilogue, which was a very short and apposite one, was written by Mr. &HAVER.. SUMMER ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. WINCHESTER, JULY 14. DEACLE V. RARING AND OTHERS.-FALSE ARREST AND IMPRISONMENT. The plaintiff is a country gentleman, residing within six miles of Winchester; the defendants are Mr. Francis Baring, Mr. Bingham Baring, the Rev. Robert Wright, magistrates of this county, and two other persons. Some information charging Mr. Deane with having aided and encouraged a mob during the rustic insurrection of last year, a warrant Wit issued for the apprehension of himself and his wif , and the manner of executing that warrant constituted tl e feundaion upon which the present action was built. Mr. Deacle was brought to trial upon the charge at the last assizes at this city, and acquitted by the Jury, without being ea led upon to enter into any defence. Mr. C. F. WILLIAMS address I the Jury at great length upon the subject of the violence and injury to which Mr. and Mrs. Deacle had been subjected by the defendants, and concluded his aidress by calling William Lewington—l am a sad,ler and harness-maker in Winchester, and served the office of constable in No vember last. I was sent for on the 24th of November, by Mr. Seagrim (an attorney, and one of the defendants). I went to the Magistrates' roma in the gaol, and was asked if I knew Mr. Deacle ; I answered that I knew bitn well and worked for him. I was asked if I could appre hend him, and I said that I could. I received instruc tions to do so from Mr. F. Baring, in the presence of the other gentlemt n. Mr. Seagritn gave me a wart ant, and Mr. Becket, the gaoler, gave me some hand-bolts, and after getting a light cart and two men, I set off for Mr. Deacle's house. On arriving there I told him I had got a warrant against him ; he asked to see it. He said that the Magistrates must be mistaken, as his conduct had been the reverse of that imputed to him. I said Mrs. Deacle must come also. He said she was very poorly. She at this time came out of the parlour, and said that there were some gentlemen riding about the house. These gentlemen then came in. They were the two Messrs. Baring and Mr. Wright. On coming into the house Mr. Baring said to me, " Constable do your duty, handbolt them." I hesitated to do so, but after a time I band bolted Mr. and Mrs. Deacle together. They bad both behived in a remarkable quiet and civil manner.,and. came np to the handbolts when I held them out. Mrs. Deacle had at this time neither bonnet nor shawl, and requested that she might he allowed to have them before she was taken away. Mr. F. Baring said, they could not wait. Mr: B. Baring then said to me again, "Do your duty ;" and Mr. F. Baring said, that he did not gee any necessity for carrying the lady handbolted. She is very small and delicate, and seemed in bad health. Mr. F. Baring fine ing that there was no key to open the bolts, which were spring bolts, tried Mrs. Deaele's hand with the bolt, and it came through and she got free. Mr. B. Baring then having a loaded pistol in his hand, went up to a man that was standing near with a gun, he presented the pistol at the man's head, and told him to give up the gun immedi ately, which the man did. Mr. Baring then brought the gun into a room where there were three or four others, and poured water into them all to prevent them froin being used by any body. I took Mr. Deacle out of the house into the yard, where . we met Mr. Seagrim. Mr. Deacle said to him, " I know you. Good God ! what is all this about ? I am quite innocent of this business." Mr. Seagrim answered, " I dare say you are, and so is your wife too." Mr. B. Baring and one of the constables then brought out Mrs. Deacle to the cart. She said she would not ge in such a conveyance, and asked to have her own horse, but this was refused. There was no spring to the cart. The road was very rough, and Mr. B. Baring made toe hasten on. Mr. Deacle, who was handcuffed, Mrs. Deacle, and I, were in the cart at this time. Mrs. Deacle begged that the cart might go slower, as the jolting distressed her so much, that she could not possibly continue it. As the cart continued on at the same rate, she made an attempt to rise and get out of the cart. Mr. Deacle put out his hand, and said to her, " Sit still, my dear : it is better to be quiet." Upon this Mr. B. Baring rode up, and struck Mr. Deacle a blow.with a stick upon the arm, directing him to sit quiet in the cart. Mr. Deacle looked very earnestly at Mr. B. Baring, but said nothing. I saw nothing whatever that could justify or provoke the blow. Mr. Deacle only inquired, after he had been struck, the name of the gentleman that had struck him. We went on about four miles farther, when a post-chaise came up, and Mr. and Mrs. Deac'e were put into it, along with Mr. Becket, the gaoler, by whom they were conveyed to Winchester gaol, where I saw them next day. I did not observe the least signs of resistance, nor hear an uncivil word addressed by Mr. and Mrs. D. to any of our party during the whole transaction. " Switzer, another constable, deposed that when Mr. B. Baring refused to allow Mrs. Deacle to have her horse, the witness said to him—" Good God ! Sir, let the lady have her horse ; and I'll hold the bridle, and be answerable with my life if the lady goes away." To this Mr. B. Baring answered, by once more exclaiming " Do your duty, Sir." Ann Scarlett, a servant of Mrs. Deacle, deposed that Mr. B. Baring took Mrs. Deacle round the waist, and carried her under his arm part of the way across the yard, her head being at one side of hit arm, and her legs dang ling down at the other. The Rev. Mr. Rogers deposed that Mr. Deacle had been educated and taken a degree at Oxford ; that he was the son of a clergyman of the church of England ; and that both father and son were, in the highest degree res pectable persons. The JUDGE having summed up, the Jury retired about 20 minutes, after which they returned a verdict for the plaintiff, against Mr. B. Baring, dam , ges 50?., and bend for all the other defendants. This verdict seemed to excite the greatest astonishment, for most of the bar, and almost every one in Curt said if on the Jury they would have given at least 5,0001. for so gross and wanton an insult and unfeeling conduct towards those who had not uffeted the least resistance, the defend ants not adducing the slightest evidence in palliation, or attempting to justify it. Mrs. Deacle was in Court ; she is a very delicate lady like woman. The case seemed to excite the greatest inte rest, the Court being crowded to excess the whole time. By an arrival from Cape Coast accounts have been received of the termination of the long and disas trous dispute between the English forts and the Ashan tees. The circumstances are stated in the following letters: " Extract of a letter from Robert Roberts, Esq., dated Cape Coast, April 12, 1831 We have at last received the promised and long-wished-for security from the King of Ashantee ; he has lodged in the Castle the 600 ounces of gold, and sent a son and a nephew of his to reside at Cape Coast as hostages, and to be educated ; and we are only waiting to assemble the different native Chiefs to tell them publicly of it biifore peace is proclainu-d.' " " Extract of a letter fro►n Robert Roberts, Esq., dated Cape Coast, April 27 I have now the plea•ure of informing you that peace has bee❑ made this day with the King of Ashantee for all parties, including the Dutch arid Danes, as well as the English, and am happy to say there was no obstacle whatever given to it by those native Chiefs who some time ago were quite averse to settling the palaver. We may now congratulate ourselves on such a happy occasion, after eight years of nothing but trouble. I sincerely hope it may be the means of doing good fur us all.'" EAST INDIAN FEMALES.—The feet, ancle, and waist of a fair Brahminee, and indeed of almost all the female natives, are perfect symmetry, whilst the band and wrist are cast in a mould of elegance far superior to that from which, in other c ountries, those beauties are de rived. —..otley's Rustum Kahn.
