Among others so held up was a noble the highest honour and purest character, and the thought fit in the eventful month of April, ..ing the general election, when the minds of the were more excited than at any period since of Charles the First, to hold up that Nobleman ' family as objects of public revenge. He asked, tt a proper period for such publications? He would , pinion on the question which then agitated the It he must say that he, for one, thought an here aility was issent4l to the existence of a constitu- Monarchy ; and any attack like that made by the is upon that nobility, tended to destroy it, by the people believe it was a rapacious and plundering and thereby destroy the monarchy itself. The de• had offered no atonentent—they had not attempted oeafErlavits, on opposing the rule for a criminal 't, either to tnaka any explanation to support their tt or t o deny it ; and therefore it must be presumed t 0 the present period they persisted in it. The Counsel then read the alleged libel from the of the 30th April, 1831, and commented on portions of it. It pointed out to the public s hat lull' do at the election then proceeding—what de ot persons to eleet—•referred to the clique of longer., and their suliscri,ing to obtain the of Tories to Parliament.

Friend at having allowed such a matter to have slept so long; and more so at his inability to produce from his mass of newspaper reading, anything of more consequence than the moderate paragraph of the Speddor. But of this paragraph, with wonderful wisdom and astute ness, he made more than any other man could make or would venture to attempt. The writer called on the people "to make ready for the election," and the words make ready were put in italics; to which the Learned Counsel had fur nished the inuendo of "present, fire !" A few lines further on occurred the words "we are still unmindful of what is best for the present, and with a slight poetical license his Learned Friend supplied another word, and " present muskets" appeared to the startled sight. His Learned Friend was a gentleman of great talent, of great weight, and of great influence in that Court, and he (Mr. Hill) had to contend with these and with the eloquence of his Learned Friend. The paragraph would he read by the jury, however, as it was written ; and they would at the same time remember that it was addressed—not to the ignorant, but to the wealthy and the intelligent part of the community—not that he would have it inferred that intelligence was neces sarily allied to wealth. The writer of the article bad come forward most honourably and avowed the produc tion ; and it was due to him to say, that nearly all his life had been devoted to writing for the press, and no jury had ever found him guilty of libel. With the editor avowed to the prosecutor, he knew not why the other two gentlemen should have been included i❑ the information, although connected with the publication of the paper ; for if the aim was simply to satisfy public justice, the writer of the supposed libel was sufficient to answer that purpose. It had been held that day that the time in which the para. Er ;ph appeared was an a'zgravation of the offence; but the jury would remember the state of the country then, and give ample allowance for the excitement under which every writer was performing his duty ; and remember that strength of expression and latitude of argument were not confined to any paper or to either party. The country was then agitated by the most important—the most glorious struggle, in which it had ever been engaged. And the very object which the writer had in view was to promote the carrying of that important measure, so that horror and bloodshed might be avoided. The learned counsel, in his capacity of advocate, bad libelled the cha ranters of the defendants; and had to his (Mr. Hill's) conception assumed the tone of one who was re tained as counsel for the whole body of nobilit7, and the bench of Bishops to boot. The infor mation did not complain that the Duke of Beaufort had been called a horoughmonger, but the Learned Counsel (Sir-James Searlett) had attempted t make out a case as if that were proved. The Learned Counsel then vent on to show that the paragraph could not be applied to the present Duke of Beaufort, but to his predecessor, who died thirty years since, and after com menting fully on the address of the Counsel for the prose cution, concluded a well delivered and argumentative ad dress, by saying that he left the cause of his clients with safe:y in the hands of a British jury. Alter the summing up of the evidence by the Learned Judge, which was finished at a quarter before one o'clock, the jut) , retired, and at ten minutes before two, brought in a verdict of—Not Guilty. COMM N PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) CUNNINGHA3.I V. FONBLANQUE. Mr. Sergeant JONES stated that this was an action brought by Messrs. Cunningham and Salmon, printers, against Mr. Fonblanque, the editor and proprietor of the Examiner Sunday newspaper, to recover the expense incurred in setting up type which was never used, and 531., the amount of four weeks' salary. In December, 1830, the plaintiffs were engaged by the defendant to print the Examiner at a weekly salary, and, as was the case with newspapers, there was a great deal of overset matter, part of which was used in the next week's paper and the remainder it was usual the printer should be paid for, as of course it was a dead loss to t im. In December, 1832, the plaintiffs were dis charged without notice, though there was a usage in the printing trade that four weeks' notice should be given on both sides, or that the printer should receive the four weeks' salary. The defendant had refused to pay the sum of 11/. 9•. which was due to the plaintiffs for overset matter, and the four weeks' salary. Mr. Win. Shackel (connected with the John Bull newspaper) Thomas Hargetti, George John Walker, and William Molyneux, printers, were called, who said that there was a usage that four weeks' notice should be given be tween newspaper proprietors and printers, but could only give six or ten instances of notice having been given to the printer, and none by the printer to the editor. Mr. Wm. Molyneux had printed the Examiner before the present plaintiffs, and admitted be had been discharged without notice, and in the middle of a week, though he had demanded four weeks' notice. It was admitted that the overset work was always paid for. Mr. Sergeant TELFORD for the defendant stated, that the facts of the case were these :—The paper bad been pre viously printed by Mt Ineux at 101. a week, after whose dismissal (without notice) the printing of it was trans. forted to Messrs. Cunningham and Salmon, at first for 101. a week, which sum was afterwards increased to 121. 155., in consequence of the size of the paper being increased. This soin was afterwards further increased to 131. ss. to include overact matter and all other charges, Mr. Fonblanque at the end of the year to give a fair compensation if there had happened to be anything considerable of overact matter during that period, and during the whole course of two years the plaintiffs had only claimed the paltry sum of 111. 9s. for overset work. With regard to the other point in the case, the four weeks' notice of dismissal, there was no proof th tt there was any such usage, for the plaintiffs' witnesses had only given half a dozen in stances, and those in their own cases. The editors of papeis might give four weeks' notice to those with whom they were upon friendly terms, but there bad not been one in stance shown where the printer had given that notice to the editor, which, to establish the usage set up, the other side were bound to prove. In the very case of the Examiner, the former printer had been discharged in the middle of the week, without any notice, which the piaintitis who succeeded well knew. The plaintiffs had continually been behind hand in getting out the paper, and in De cember, 1832, were so behind hand that the paper, whose circulation was principally in the country, was out only just in time for the last post, to the great detriment of and expense to the paper. Mr. Fonblanque, st-eing that the paper was not got out any sooner, notwith standing his continued complaints, then told them that he must dispense with their further services. After their discharge the plaintiffs sent in a bill for certain charges not connected with the paper, in which not a single word was said about four weeks' wages being due to them. The Learned Sergeant called the forem.in who had been in the employ of the plaintiffs, the publisher of the Examiner, who said, in conver,ations between the plaintiffs and the defen dant, not a word was said about the four weeks wages, and confirmed the statement of the increase of salary havini; been to include all overset work. The LEARNED JUDGE (Mr. J. A. Park), in summing up, said that, in his opinion, there was no pretence of any usage for four weeks' notice, but that was for the jury to decide. The plaintiffs' salary had been increased 103. a week, to include overcharges, whilst the overact work sued for only amounted to 3s. per week. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs to the full amount. Mr. Sergeant TELFORD said that he should move for leave to enter a nonsuit. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

GROVES. This was an action to recover compensation in da mages for a defamation under the following circumstances. The plaintiff was at one time in the service of the defendant; she left there and went to another place, but the defendant did not know where till four months after wards. After she had been some time gone, Mrs. Groves missed several articles, among which were a petticoat, an old crown piece, &c., which were in the house while the plaintiff was there. On finding where she was living, Mr. and Mrs. Groves went there, to a Mr. Field's, and asked about the things. Mr. Field was present, and went for a policeman, upon whose arrival the plaintiff brought down her boxes, but nothing was found belonging to the defendant, and he, upon being asked by the police man, refused to give her in charge. The plaintiff al'egeil that by such conduct Mr. Groves meant to impute felony to her, and that, through it, she had lost her place, but Mr. Field to-day stated that he had previously given her warning, and that he did not part with her in consequence of the defendant's conduct. The LORD CHIEF BARON left it to the jury to say whether the defendant meant to impute the felony to the plaintiff, whatever the result of his inquiry might be; in such a case then the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict ; but if they were of opinion that he went to Mr. Fi , ld's merely for the purpose of inquiring after the loot articles, and meant to be guided in his conduct by the result of that it qui!) , ; then he would Le entitled to their verdict. The jury then retired, and, after being out about half an hour, they returned a verdict fur the plaintiff— Damages 51. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrival of Oats last week were considerable, but of other Grain only moderate, and the trade gave some indications of improvement except for Oats. This morning the supply of Wheat was rather better than on last Monday, of Barley moderate, and of Oats plentiful. There was a brisk sale for Wheat during the early part of the market at 2s. to 3s. per quarter advance on last terms, but when it was ascertained that the millers could not raise the price of Flour, the early prices could not be supported. Barley is in steady demand, and supports the terms of this day se'nnight. Beaus are t2s. per quarter dearer, but the trade is not brisk. Pease are scarce, and rather higher in value. Oats continue very heavy in sale, and are fully Is. per quarter lower. Some surprise has been excited, by the Millers not raising the price of Flour, as the stock is short.

( From the Win'A'sor Express.) . . On Thursday tie King and Queen, after honouring Sir Wathen Waller and the Baroness Howe's fete with their presence, returned to the Castle about 12 o'clock at night. Yesterday their Majesties did not leave the Castle in consequence of the ungenial state of the weather, the King being occupied during the greater part of the day in transacting public business. This afternoon the King and Queen, Princess Augusta, Prince George of Cambridge, the Marchioness of Corn. Wallis and daughters (who are on a visit to Frogmore), accompanied by several of the distinguished suite, lift Windsor for Penwood, beyond Beaconsfield, where they intend to honour the Earl and Countess Howe with their presence to dinner. On Tuesday, the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo, the King will go to London, to dine with the Duke of Wellington. The entertainment, on this occasion, is in tended to be on a magnificent scale, for which very ex tensive preparations are making at Apsley House. The Duke, however, is said to be indisposed. On Wednesday the King holds his levee. On Thursday the Queen will hold a drawing.room at St. James's, presumed to be the last for the present season.

The Bavarian Minister transacted business on Saturday at the Colonial-office. The Lords of his Majesty's Most lion. Privy Council held a meeting on Saturday morning at the Council Cham ber, Whitehall, which was attended by the Master of the Rolls, Messrs. Henry Ellis and Taylor. An appeal from the decision of the Court of Ordinary of the Island of St. Vincent, in which Francis Brown Douglas, a minor, acting by his father and guardian, Mr. Archibald Brown, was the appellant, and William Smith awl Robert Brown, the trustees and executors of Francis Brown deceased, were the respondents, came on for hear ing, Dr. Lushington opening the case for the appellants. The deceased (Dr. Brown) died at an advanced age; after this event, two testamentary papers were found, the one not in the handwriting of the Doctor, but signed by him and attested by three witnesses, the second entirely in the Doctor's handwriting, and of more recent date than the other, being dated seven days only previous to the Doctor's decease, but bearing no signature, although even the form of attestation for the witnesses had bee❑ inserted in the paper. Both papers left certain estates to the appellant (who is grandson to the deceased), but the unsigned paper contained a disposal of other property, amounting to 60,0001., different from that contained in the signed and attested paper, which latter was in favour of the appel• lent. It was contended that parties claiming to be bene fitted by the disposition of property in the unsigned paper ought to be called upon to show what cause had impeded the execution of the will during the seven days which had elapsed between its date and the period of the decease of the testator. The cause was adjourned. The Hon. W. Bathurst was the Clerk of the Council in waiting. The report of the Lords of his Majesty's Privy Council in the appeal ease (in lunacy), from the Court of Chan cery, " Drax v. Grosvenor," confirmed by his Majesty in council, was that the decision of the Lord Chancellor should be reversed. We hear from respectable authority that Sir HENRY PARNELL has been invited to become a candidate for the representation of Westminster in the event of a vacancy arising by the long•talked of elevation of Sir F.

BETTS and Co. had flattered themselves that the unprecedented extent of sale and admitted superiority in the quality of their PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY world, ere now, have wholly dissipated the prejudice hide has been known to exist in the minds of many per sons against Brandy manufactured in this country, and which, before the introduction of their article, was, perhaps, justifiable. If a patronage, as distinguished as it is extensive, including many thoussnd families of every rank and class of society in all parts of the kinedom, be any proof of merit, then has the PATENT BRANDY irre sistible claims to universal support. J. T. BETTS and Co. could well have afforded to rest their claims to the merit of having in'roduced an unri valled produe,ion on such incontrovertible evidence. But they feel that the public, rather than themselves, are in terested in the announcement, that they are perfectly aware of the efforts still made by interested persons to de preciale the PATENT BRANDY ; and to prevent the entire removal from the public mind of that injurious delusion, which, however weakened, still exists in a qualified de gree. It is mainly with a •iew, therefore, to destroy the last remnant of this prejudice, that J. T. BETTS and Co. recall the attention of all classes to the consideration of the decided approval given by the faculty to their PATENT BRANDY—nn approbation resting on the important facts contained in the following detail : First—That " BETTS'S PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY" is the only known pure Spirit in the World. Secondly—That the dealers in French Brandy—who have always been the most inveterate, as they are the na tural opponents of the PATENT BRANDY-have been re peatedly challenged in the public journals, by comparison or otherwise, to disprove the foregoing fact ; and as the vital interests of their trade hang upon its disproval, the sole and just inference drawn by the public, from their• constantly declining to accept the challenge, is, that THE FACT 15 BEYOND DISPUTE. Thirdly—That, whilst the PATENT BRANDY possesses all the valuable properties of the first class Cognac, it ;s free from the acids which even that fine spirit is known to cant :in. Its superiority is still more marked over French Brandies of the second and lower classes, which are fre quently mixed with considerable quantities of a spirit ob tained from other products than the grape, containing a large proportion of acid, which tends seriously to disorder the stomach. Fourthly—That, in consequence of the freedom of the PATENT BRANDY from those injurious acids, its use is not attended with nausea or headset). And, as a necessary consequence of its extreme purity, it is found congenial to the most delicate constitutions, and is especially valuable to persons of bilious or dyseptic habits. Fifthly—That, for the foregoing reasons, all the faculty, who are acquainted with the intrinsic merits of the PA TENT BRANDY, recommend it, in preference to any other spirit, for medicinal purposes. Sixthly—That, for the like reasons, when used as an ordinary beverage, diluted (in the manner recommended by the first physicians) in the proportion of one to six, it is infinitely preferable to Malt, and other fermentable liquors, whilst it stands unrivalled for lIO3IE.3IADE WINES, CONFECTIONARY, and CULINARY purposes, where the absence of acids is an important requisite. Sfventhly—That the PATENT BRANDY, either PALE or COLOURED, at the highest legal strength, is charged only EIGHTEEN SHILLINGS per Imperial Gallon, or little more than half the price of French Brandy. And Lastly--That the superiority of the PATENT BRANDY, as thus defined, is established by unanimous opinions, founded upon the results of various analyses made by the most celebrated Chytnists ; from whose certi ficates the three accompanying extracts are selected : EXTRACTS FROM THE TESTIMONIALS. " Your Brandy is free from uncombined acid and astringent matter, which exists more or l ess i n mos t o f th e B ran di es im ported from France. " JOHN THOMAS COOPER, " To Mr. Betts."

" JOSEPH HUME, " J. T. Betts, Esq." " Chymist to hi s Majesty."

THE NAUTICAL ALMANAC. Mr. Lyall, the Member for the City, having represented to the Admiralty that inconvenience was likely to arise to commanders of ships bound upon distant voyages, in consequence of the Nautical Almanac for 1834 not having yet been published, has received the following letter from Sir James Graham, explanatory of the causes of the delay which has taken place in its publication : " Admiralty, June 6, 1833. " Sir,—ln further answer to your letter of May 30, inquiring when the Nautical Almanac for the year 1834 may be expected to be published, I have the pleasure to acquaint you, that the Almanac is completed, and would have been published this day, if a sudden attack of illness had not prevented the super intendent from finishing the introduction, which is indispen sably necessary. " Howmuchsoever I may regret the delay that has occurred, it is a satisfaction to be able to state, on the authority of those most competent to form a just estimate of its merits, that the sacrifice of time and expense in bringing it to its present im proved and enlarged form will be fully compensated by the in troduction of many additions and alterations adapted equally for all the purposes of practical astronomy whether at sea or on shore. " Among these may be reckoned the important points— " 1. Of the moon's place being given for every hour of the day, which was before limited to noon and midnight. "2. The places of the four bright planets for every day, which were heretofore given for every seven days. " 3. The lunar distances from the planets are now given, as well as those from the fixed stars. " And I have further the pleasure to state, that notwith standing the expense incurred by these and many other improve ments, the cost price will not be increased. " The Almanac for the years 1835 and 1836 are expected to be ready for publication before the expiration of the present year. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, " J. R. G.

In spite of the seeming democratic tendenc}• of the new and exciting novel of " Godolphin," many persons are convinced that the writer is not only an aris tocrat in fact, but in feeling ;—that he is a haughty man o f fashion, stiff with the prejudices and exclusiveness of his caste, and that were a writer in ordinary life to venture on one half the abuse of the great which the present caustic personage has heaped upon them, he would be the first to start out and defend hie brethren. Persons of rank may, it seems, abuse each other, but woe betide the luckless individual, out of the circle:, who Huddles in the fray, either to attack or defend ; for if it is presump tion to condemn, it is impertinence to praise. IRELAND.-DUBLIN, JUNE 13. POSTPONEMENT of the PROSECUTION AGAINST the PILOT NE IV SPAP ER. The trial of Mr. Barrett, propietor of the Pilot news paper, has been postponed until the next term, in Novem ber, under circumstances which, I believe, are unprece dented in the annals of Irish legal proceedings. The Crown pressed with the utmost exertions (or a trial this day, but in consequence of the non-attendance of the special jury on the selected panne!, or a sufficient number of them t o constitute a jury, the Attorney-General had no alter native, and was compelled to submit to a postponement. The Court was excessively crowded, and the most in tense interest pervaded the auditory. I subjoin the par ticulars of these extraordinary proceedings. At the sitting of the Court this morning, the argument on the application of the defendant for a postponement of the trial was resumed. Mr. Woulfe was heard on the part of Mr. Barrett, and Mr. Holmes on the other side ; after which the Court decided against the application, and that the trial should forthwith proceed, as the publica tions complained of bad not the effect represented in the affidavit of the defendant. The jurors were then called, but only seven of them answered. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL suggeeted that they should he e•'al'ed on large fines. They were then called on fines of 201. Mr. Fearon, Sub-Sheriff, stated that be w odd send to the houses of some of the jurors who were not present. Mr. SHELL, after consulting with his colleagues, pro tected against the trial going on. Mr. Wour.vx—There are only eight out of the twenty four jurors present, and upon the part of the prosecution emissaries have been sent out for more. The ATToitslxv-GEtansa. denied that he bad anything to do with it. Mr. Fearon denied that be had sated as Counsel had stated. He had seen some of the jurors in Court that morning, and, with the permission of the Court, he would now send to their houses. After a delay of nearly an hour, the ATTORNEY-GENE RAL suggested that the jurors should be called on still larger fines. The officer of the Court now called them on fines of 501., when two more of the jurors appeared. After another considerable pause in the proceedings, The CHIEF JUSTICE said—Well, Mr. Attorney-General, what do you say ?—there are but ten jurors in attendance. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—It is, my Lord, trespass ing on the indulgence of the Court, perhaps unreasonably; but if the trial had taken place at the hour appointed, it is very probable that there would have been a full attendance. Mr. SHEIL—It appears there has been some neglect in summoning the pannel, and if only two or three come iu now, my client would be obliged to p to trial on a very reduced panne!. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—The jury came at the hour they were summoned for, and found the Court engaged in argument, the termination of which they could nut have anticipate E. Mr. PIcoTT and Mr. WOULFE, on the part of the de fendant, pressed for an adjournment. Another long pause ensued, when Mr. SHEIL rose and said that persons had been sent out to select a jury. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I did not send them. Mr. SHEIL—WiII the Attorney-General venture to say this—that persons have not The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Mr. Sheil will riot thus interrupt me. He has put two questions, and before I proceed to answer the second --- Mr. Surtn—How can the Attorney-General say that I have interrupted him? I state that persons ha►e been sent out to collect a jury. Will the Attorney-General deny that? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—_I mean to say this—that persons have been sent out to collect a jury, but they have not been sent by me. The Sheriff has gone out with your Lordship's permission. Mr. SHELL—The Sheriff is now absent : he is looking for certain persons to serve on a jury. In doing so he can call on such person as he thinks proper; and in doing so he exercises a selection of the jury by whom the tra verser is to be tried. The CHIEF JUSTICE—Oa his return, Mr. Sheil, we can inquire as to that fact. j Another delay of half an hour took place. The CHIEF JUSTICE—Mr. Attorney-General, what course do you mean to pursue? There is a vast deal of other important business to be done by the Court. The ATToRNFT-GENERAL—It is impossible, my Lord, to pray a tales in this case. The CHIEF JUSTICE—I am anxious you should con sider what you should do. ATTORNEY-GENERAL-.---It is for your Lordship to de cide whether you will comply with our request to wait some time longer. Another delay here took place. Mr. SHEIL—I wish to know from your Lordship how long the Court thinks it right to wait for a jury. The CHIEF JUSTICE—At present we think it right to wait ; but we cannot say how long. Another quarter of an hour now passed by, and there was still no appearance of a sufficient number for a jury. The CHIEF Jusricz then said, We cannot wait any longer. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL again impressed upon his Lordship that the jury went away, thinking the argument would last the entire day. Judge BORTON observed that was no reason for their being then absent. Again the Arronamv.GENERAL asked his Lordship to wait some time longer. The Chief Justice consented, and after the lapse of another quarter of an hour, he called out to adjourn the court. Mr. Smut repeated it, the court was adjourned, and in a minute afterwards an eleventh juror (a Mr. Shaw) en. tered the court, and upon being told he was fined 501. represented to the Chief Justice that he was 79 years of age. The CHIEF JUSTICE remarked that be should not have been on the pannel. The proceedings here terminated with the Attorney. General asking the Court to impose the fine on the absent jurors. The opinion - appears to be gaining ground in the city that the question of the Bank Charter will not be settled in the present session of Parliament, as it is un• deratood that Lord Avenour has pledged himself to allow ample time for considering the details of the tnea+ure, and most parties whose interests will be affected are likely to oppose it. The country bankers say that it will injure them ; the local joint-stock bankers consider that to them it will be fatal ; and the members of the landed interest are beginning to apprehend that the process of changing the circulation of the country hanks for that of the Bank of England may have a tendency to contract it and reduce prices. On the other hand, the public at large seem to entertain the opinion that the proposed bargain with the Bank is an improvident one. With all these conflicting interests and opinions, it appears to be hardly practicable, even if it were desirable, to carry so important a measure through Parliament at this late period of the session ; and as the Chancellor of the P.xchequer does not press the measure forward, it is presumed that he must have deter mined on taking the leisure of the recess for its more ma ture consideration. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 14. —The demand for cotton during the week has again been very extensive, and prices have rather improved than otherwise.
