fimrtrr OP tIIE PUBLIC JOURNALS. train : The affair's of Fume° move in an orderly r the Chamber of Deputies proceeds with vigour and activity, but omits none of the regular forms which govern its proceedings in ordinary times. We are not to blind a; not to see that all motion has not teased with the mere subsidence of the storm. Some discontent, some angry difference of opinion, some mortification at disuppoltred hopes, some rage at defeat, does exist, and will probably exist for to long time to come. But we see no symptom% and still less any materials, for any 'resection; except that of diScossion i n t h e ambers and the journals. The most distinguished of the Royalist Peers, on whom the miserable Charles X. had most relied, hove pressed forward to give their adhesion to the Con stitutional Monarch. The Vela:leen chiefs have ex palely refused to stir in the cause of despotism; and the new Government is, it is evident, actively and sagiciouhly olive to counteract every possible movement of faction, The proclamation of General Lennart'se to the districts of which La Vendee forms part, is eloquent, firm, and coneilietoth: it IS with equal justice end force he says,---" Your fathers have covered this country with their bones in the name of royalty we have on this same spot abed rivers of blood in she name of liberty Well, these two eisenlials of our social system are now milted and blended together in' it constitutional monarch I"' Can this appeal be made its vain to any honest man who loves his country We have gives extracts from the letters of our cor respondents, of.asll colours, because we have no wish but for truth, end it is only by the comparison of opinions that truth is to be elicited. We have also extracted from the Paris Journals of Sunday a detailed report of the introduction of the law pro ject for completing the Chamber of Deputies by new elections, a brief account of which a letter from one of our correspondents enabled ns to give exclu sively yesterday. Some assembleges of the labour ing claw*, are alluded to in the Constientiormd, but the capital remain; tranquil in spite of the predie 'lens to the contrary of the Royalist Journals, who, from being ultra-Monarchicel, have, all of a sudden, become nitra-popular. The following are the names of the Deputies romposing the committee of nine, chosen by the 'Bement, to take into consideration the 'motion for impeaching the late Ministers—eviz. MM. Daimon, Derenger, Coumartin, Madier de Montjau, Pelet (De la Lozere), Lepellitier D'Aunay, Benin de Vous, Meuguin, Salverte. We observe that the report of the appointment of Count Vla haut to the London Embassy .meotioned its some of the French journals, is contradicted in others. It certainly would not neve been is judicious appoint went. Polignac, it will be seen by the Hamburg Papers, is on Isis way to the free soil of neigh'. His,fittest resting place will be Siberia.-7Vmes. The meeting, so long delayed, of the City of London has at length taken place. Mr. "Witritrtott„ the Chairman, in a speech distinguished for clear nese and moderation, stated the object of the meet ing, and that " he did not call for subscriptions be cause the French nation were unable to assist those, who had 'suffered in their cause—he did it for the honour and character of the English themselves; they were called upon to subscribe us a definitive, marked, and striking mode of manifesting public opinion upon a great political event; of expressing sympathy with those who have sufrereti in the cause of general humanity and true social order," The room was filled with respectable gentlemen; but it was impossible not to remark the studied absence of the upper ranks—the City Aristocracy, as it is called—from the meeting. Mr. Fearon gave a ear votive of the paltry•subterfuges of the Bankers and Merchants. As a body, he was justified in saying, that the Bankers anti Merchants had not come forward to lead the public ;—to stop the course of public opinion was beyond their power." Mr. 'Welb, stated, in justice to some of the members of : the ,Aristocracy, that they had expressed their cordial approbation of the object of the meeting; . anti among others he mentioned the names of tea Slum en, Lord Altborp, and the Moguls of Lansdowne, from whom he handed up to the Chairman a letter stating why he wateenable to attend any meeting. in London, though he cordially approved of their pro ceedings. it 'was happily observed by the Rev. Mr. Fox, with respect to this absence of the Aristocracy— " If it watts reproach to them, or any of them, that they Putt been backward on this occasion, there wan, perhaps, a hermit derived kern their backwardness, fur which the people owed them some obligation. It was this, Mat it takoAt Me people to do without Mon, and to rtly on Monselves,*(Cheere.)--It was, beeklett, the proper duty .of•the people to praise the conduct of the people.— (('heer'. )..—The Revolution in Paris• had been *fretted— the battle of liberty had been fought hy the people of Porie—let the people of England, then, otter' to Site people of Trento their sincere congratulationa on the triumphant mires** with which the popular eons*, taut been attendede-- (Cheers. )—The people ought by this time to he con viewed that they moat conquer liberty lit thenvolves---if they wealth have it, they must win it by their own cx 'ranee." This want of sympathy of the higher class of this country with the most splendid event in history Pprako volumes. A hint has been given from a high su4rter, that any expression of sympathy with the French would not be Dr ell received; and as the Merchants and Hankers of London are anxious nor to be excluded Prom the countensnee of the great, they hang hack. What meanneas I What cowardice! At a numerous patty of high people, a day or two ago, the events In France were not once alluded to, though almost every other event of the day was noticed. That the English Oligarchy would nor wish success to a Ferdinand or a Miguel, or the Devil, rather than to the cause of good govevareent, we believe. Pot what a manifestation of their hatred of every thing noble and generous have we here in this conspirney to suppress all sympathy with the brave Parisians.—Marning Chronic/a. We cannot be suspected of having shown any in difference to the dee, the progress, or tile result of the'events now pestling in France. They originate, in the most wicked and uneelleMor aggression which despotism ever 'made epee the rights of society : these inroads have been resisted with a virtue, a courage, and promptitude' beyond all praise t while the victory thee eohly acquired has been used with a 0614E411 of Wititligt) tied modern tion entirety without punnet woke similar daunt-, stances. Nor have we been in tiny degree. less alive to the very general iltdnorice which these events are calcultsted to protlitee—rity, to a certain degree must produce, in other countries.

That it may end in promoting the cause of rational freedom every where is our fervent hope; that it is capable of being perverted to other pure pales we are not without ,our fear.

Yet ,Hile s temetbittg very like this, has been pretty op en l y hinted at at awe of the metier which hey* oath place upon the occasion. That: there are reforms wanting in this country few can doubt, and there is as little doubt but that the example of France, wisely used, must hasten their completion.' But reform and revolution are very different things. The Constitu don of this country happily possesses the means of its own renovation, which at present can only be , retarded by the insane attempts of tin opposite nature to which we have alluded. In the stirring words of Sheridan we may exclaim, " We want no change, and, least of all, such changes as they would give us." But, if there are in this country inflammable materials but too ready to ignite at the smallest flame, to what, may we ask, is their existence mainly owing but ,to the criminal apathy which the Government has too long shown to the wants and distresses of the people ? Had last Session of Parliament, and the Ministers who direct its pyoeeedingn, instead of turning a deaf s•ar to the too just and well-founded complaints of the people, employed themselves in seekingout the cause and applying u remedy, there would have been no opening fur the political demagogue, that worst and heartless lover of Mischief, to rest his hopes of site. steam upon; and, to avert the danger, that opening should now be closed. The new Parliament when it assembles, have an awful duty to perform— a duty in which the Government, we trust, will be prepared to take the lead. 'We have no fear but that the example of France must have a beneficial effect among us, if we have those at the ilelm who know their duty, and have the honesty and courage to perform it. These remarks will pro bably not be very favourably received by all who may peruse them, but our readers in general, we trust, w►ll perceive that they are prompted by a wish to see the evils of our situation remedied without their being made a handle for anarchy end confusion, it is by !akin timely warning that the wise man averts calamity ; while it is by a stupid indifference , 0 example that the fool courts danger.---Mentini; hierola. The business of Government and Legkoiation is proceeding in France, as will be seen from the con, tents of the Paris Papers, with. a tranquillity and regularity which, on the immediate close of such a Revolution .ns that which had taken place, must surprise and astonish every one. Philip I. appears to be firmly seated on the throne, and, with the ex , eeption of a few Peers, who heve protested against the somewhat harsh measure of being degraded to their former reek of commoners, and a few De limit* or the ultra Royalist party, who have either vented their seats, or declined to take them on the plea of political indisposition, there is not even a symptom of hostility to his government. All parties eppeer to be delighted with the return of order, itott only to wonder bow they bud so hap icy escaped from a reign of weirdly end confusion. Still it must not be concealed that there are some specks in the political horizon which forebode, if not a storm, at least an interruption of the gratifying tran quillity which now reigns. Though Charles X. has lint few partisans, and could not, perhaps, were he to sound the trumpet of civil war, command the ser. vices of 5,000 men, the case is far otherwise with the young Duke of Bordeaux, who, it is thought by many, lies been unjustly deprived of his rights by the election of the Duke of Orleans to the Crown of France. They argue, that at the period of the Charter being given by Louis XVIII., a contract wits entered into between him and the people of France,. which Charles. X. has violated, and is, in eonsequence, justly excluded from the throne; but that the stature of the contract was such, that no transgression of it, however flagrant, on the part of the reigning King, could be visited on his law ful heir and successor, and therefore, that in point of legality, as well as in point of -justice, the acces sion of aoy other Sovereign than the Duke de flour deaux is mill and void. There is some strew of just argument in this mode of reasoning, and, as we have already observed, there are many who, were there any chance of success, would willingly art upon it; but the abettors of this course of MIMS" mon appear to forget that the principle of " the greatest happiness of the greatest number" is wholly sec aside by it, sold that even if the just rights of the Duke of Bourdeaux have been set aside by the turn which Whirs have taken in France, those of the millions of its population have -been pre served, and that there is no principle of equity, or political expediency, which would warrant the majority of any people, in arty country, in continu ing on the throne a family which it had either found to be incorrigible in political conduct, or from which it had reason to dread any danger to its liberties. The people of France have follewed the example set to them by the people of England in 1088: and they hove done wisely. Order ham been restored, the evils of a minority avoided, and, what is more, assurance obtained of the committee() of poll. .feat rights, which it would have been in vain to have looked for under a scion of the deposed dynasty. liut to return. In addition to the party in France in favour of the chiltne of the Duke de Bout dean% ) r i here is also, we fear, no inconsiderable party without it, of the same opinions and feelings. With the ex ception of this country, there is no' other European power which can view with setisfianien the turn which affairs have taken in• France. The precedent of not only deposing a Sovereign, because he had tailed in observing the conditions of his contract With the people, but of departing from the regular order of succession to the throne in the aripoitirment of another, must be viewed by them us bad in itself, end calculated to put in jeopardy their tenure of , arpire. The King of the Netherlands, with palmier, but little inclined to yield ebedienie to him, has very wisely, along with his brother of Protoio, tliseb t ime4 all thought of interference-and to this practice we trust all others will adhere; but Amt. trill, it is reported, does not view the mutter in the seine light, and Is preparing to march an army into Italy. No recognition, also, of the new Government, except by the Atnerienn Ambassador, hat as y e t i , tken place ; and though we do not augur that any of lie European PoWers will ultimately refuse to ad -1 ass I. its King of the French, yet if it he tong delayed, there elm he no dont); of ,the enemies of the existieg artier of things endeavouring to turn it to account in prejudicing the new Government.

Edward Reading, aged 10, William Toney,,aged 20, Joseph Hawke:, aged 25, Ann ems, uged 21, John Briley, aged 21, and James Conway, aged 18, were indicted for having, on the night of ihe,l2th of May last, assaulted Edward Foden on the King's highway, in the borough of Warwick, and stolen froth his person three sovereigns, a hut, and a pocket-handkerchief. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, a printer residing in this town„ that on the evening of the 12th of May he went to the theatre, accom panied by some of the family of the landlord of the Bull's Head public-house. After the perforthance was over, he went home with them to the Bull's Head, where he stopped a short time, and had some bread and cheese, and a couple of glasses of Kin and water. .He then proceeded alone towards his own house, and on reaching an archway near a chapel, which is only a few yards from the Bull's Head, he stopped for a Moment for a particular purpose. It was at this time past twelve o'clock, and the night was dark, He was about turning towards the wall of the archway, for the purpose alluded to when he received a violent blow in the eye, and was knocked down. The person who struck him, he swore posi tively he knew to be Reading, whom he had been in the habit of seeing about the town daily, and whose features, although the night was datiq there was 6611 sufficient light to enable him to recognize, pirticularly as Reading threw himself upon him. lie got up, however, and attempted to run away, when he was knocked down upon his hands by ono ther man, whom he swore to be Toney. Ho reco vered himself from this partial fall, but was again knocked down by Toney, who threw himself on him. The prosecutor struggled, and cried,," Murder 1" but was instantly surrounded by a number of persons who came from under the arch-way, and by whom he was violently kicked about the groin, stomach, and head, and dreadfully cut and bruised, When he culled for help, Toney put his hand on his mouth, and told him, " if he did not hold his noise he would murder him." They. then robbed hint of his money, Toney being the most active in rifling his pockets. His calls having attracted a person who had been at the Bull's Head, as soon, as he saw him he collared Toney, saying he was 0110:Of the villains who had robbed him, The others had gone away by this time. Toney affected to resent this charge, and again knocked the prosecutor down. This was the only evidence against Reading and Toney, no body else beingable to identify them ; and the pro secutor, in his cross-examination, fell into some con fusion, as to whether the person who came to his aMilltiirlCC came up before or after the robbers had left him: Ile swore, however, most positively, to the persons of Toney and Reading. The evidence against the other prisoners was very imperfect. The Jury returned a verdict, finding Rending and Toney Geilty, and acquitting all the others. The LiLtRNED 41,11414 had the two convicts called up for judgment; and, having placed the fatal cap on his head, pronounced sentence of death upon them. The trial lasted from the sitting of the Court until a late hour of the day. In the Nisi Prim, Court, the Lord Chief Baron was occupied from nine until half-past four o'clo:k, trying an issue from the Court of Exchequer," Beek and others v. Bret!, clerk," to ascertain the validity of a modes of 34 Os. Bd. a year, in lieu of Otitis, for AlWesty-park, in this county. The Jury found a ;verdict for the plaintiff, establishing the validity of the modus. MURDER or A NEW POLICEMAN. On Monday night, between twelve and one o'clock, police constable Long, No. 43, of the division G., was most barbarously murdered while on duty in' the Gray's.lnnulisd. The unfortunate man, it ap pears. had for a consideruble time previously been Winching three men, whom he had seen lurking about hits beat. lie suspected them of an intention to break into some house, end he communicated his suspicions to some constables of. division 0,- whose boundary is on the opposite side of the road, de siring them also to keep a look-out; but about the time stated,, while he was passing a very extensive dead wall which encloses the St. James's burial ground, the villains followed him, and one of them plunged a knife into his body. .Tl 4 victim of this atrocious deed staggered 'a few paces, then fell into the road, and died almost instantly. The instrument with which it was committed is a shurp-pointed shoemaker's knife, which had been driven with such force, that the murderer in withdrawing his had pulled away the handle only, and the blade was after- Wards found buried in the body of the murdered man. The only person near the spot at the moment was a female, who had seen the three men ap proach the deceased, and seeing the latter fell, she seized one of the men, who was coining away from the body, and called out " Murder." Lle broke away from her, however, but a man, who is said to be the same, was stopped presently afterwards, and' secured, an d the handle of the knife was picked up near the spot. Another man was also taken. The suspicions which the deceased entertained of the purpose, far which the men had been lurking about were confirmed by the fact of several housebreaking tools being picked up on the spot from which the villains fled eller commiiiing the murder. The poor men has left.a wife and live children to lament his loos, lie was tr watchman' in St. Luke's parish previously to the establishment of the police-force, and is stated to have been a mart of good character. At eleven o'clock yesterday morning, John Smith and Lawrence Summers were brought to Hatton garden peliee•otlieei :charged with the .wilful murder of Thomas Long, a policemen 'of the division G., No. 43, in the Gray's-inwroad, about twelveo'eloek un Monday night, the particulars of which will be found above. Thomas Prendwill, a watchman, stationed at Mr. Cubitt's, the builder,_ in Oray's-inn-road, stated that libout twelve o'clock he heard the rattles spring ing, and a cry of " Murder I" and " Stop thief P' Ile proceeded to the spot, and saw the prisoner Smith running, wbom.he secured, and delivered over to the policemen who came up. • John Newton, division G., No. 32, stated that h e *as on duty about twelve o'clock in the Gray's-inn road with the deceased, who had conununieated to him the fact of some suspicimci fellows being about, and they both determined on keeping a strict watch. Shortly after three upert•passed, and on corning op he (witness) found the deceased on the knee of u yaung man. The deceased said, " Oh, Gled, I'm a dead man." Witness pursued the men, who were running, and received the p r i soner from the first witness. There were thr ee m en ' i n company when witness first saw them. The decenised did nut spea k after he exclaimed he was a dead man. Tim pri soner was greatly agitated when witnes s took him, end some person .said the men is 6tabbt,4l, but the prisoner made no remark. John Coe, a bricklayer in the employ of Mr. Cubitr, sworn, stated, that he was on the spot about ten minute* to twelve o'clock, and saw the deceased lying on his back. lie saw three men or more run away. 'Witness did not parsue them, but rook the deceased n hi knee. Witilne was doing this a cry of " Stop thief !" was raised, and the de ceased said "I urn stabbed." He requested witness to unbutton his coat and loosen his stock, when the deceased reclined his head on witness's shoulder and expired. He did not say who tabbed him. The body was conveyed to n 0144;o:item, wh m th e knife was drawn from below the sixth rib, anti very nearly, if not from, the heart. The deceased was quite dead before he could be conveyed to the surgeon's. Mary Ann Stevens was present little before twelve o'clock, and saw the deceased following three men. One of them had a cot on o ne c h e ek, and the prisoner Smith was one of them. Witness saw them together, and saw the deceased fall. lie tuti4: I gm a dead man." Witaesa immediately cried out murder, and the men ran uway one of them dropping a piece of iron from his coat . The other prisoner, Summers, was in the crowd, but, witness did not identify him as one of the men she Saw with the deceased. She thought he was not one of them. John Dennis was near the Calthorpe Arms at the time in question, and saw the deceased with three men near him ; two were on his left side, and one on his right; the prisoner was on his left, and nearest him, The deceased appeared to be ordering them to go on, when he received a blow from the prisoner Smith, and instantly fell on his back. Wit ness never lost sight of Smith until be was secured. Peter Millican saw three men in company in Wells-street, round the corner of which they turned. The prisoner:Smith was :one of them. • The police man (the deceased) went up and said, "What have you been after . ?" when he was immediately stabbed. The men then ran. off in different directions. He Was positive that Smith was one of the men. There was no violence used on the part of :the deceased, who merely attempted to take one of them into cue. tody, when he received the blow. Several other witnesses were examined, but their testimony only went to subsequent parts of the transaction. The prixoners denied all knowledge of the dread fulacr, and were remanded. It is evident that the intention of the party was to commit a burglary, as a crow-bar, a large rasp, several files, and other implements of housebreakin g, were found near the spot. The general belief is, that the unfortunate man . had been marked by the gang, whom he had previously disturbed, and who were bent on taking his, life at all 'words. The police are in active pursuit of the accomplices. GENERAL ELECTION. ESSEX.—TENTH DAY. CHELMSFORD, Tuirsnmr. At the close of the poll, ut five o'clock, the numbers 'were— Day's Poll. Gross Poll. Tyrell Western Wellesley As soon as the poll was announced— Mr. WESTERN attempted to address the meet ing; but the noise and tumult were too great to allow him to be beard, and he retired. Colonel TYREE!. next came forward, and said he once more appeared before the freeholders, to tender thorn his thanks for their continued support. He regretted that he had nothing but his gratitude to offer for their exertions. Air. WELLESLEY also had to thank the freeholders for their exertions in placing him in his present situa tion on the poll. The Under-Sheriff had made a slight mistake in his arithmetic on Saturday, and placed him eleven lower than he had a right to be; hut the mistake had since been corrected; besides which, he was creepirrg up. He was advancing like the tortoise, and would, beat the hare ut last. Mr. LOWNDES came forward, and said he had come that day without any solicitation of Mr. Wel lesley to support him, in consequence of what Mr. Quintin Dick had said of his family. That family was most illustrious for the services it had rendered to the country —(Cheeri.) 7 --He believed that the Duke of Wellington was the saviour of the country, and that but for his great achievements, .we ahoUld now be a province of Vrance.----(A voice, " For whom did you vote ?")—He had given a plumper for Wellesley, because he (Wellesley) had given a plumper for Mr. Qaintin Dick, which he should not forget as long us he lived. Na other frieholdernow presenting himvlf, the Under-Sheriff declared the Court adjourned till to-morrow at ten. But just at that moment— Mr. Wgl.l.llsLicr again addressed the meeting, and begged to thank Mr. Lowndes for his vote. Sir H. sstrrn here presented himself, and was well received by the meeting. He had opposed Mr. Briunston because he was in favour of the Ca tholics, and he supported Mr. Conyers because he was opposed to them; and he supported Colonel Tyrell because he also waii : opposed to them. The Hon. Baronet then ws nt on to contend that the sneers of Mr. Harvey and others against colonel Tyrell were :unwarranted; that Colonel Tyrell was a man of talent—((sheers, hisses, and liughter)— and was the best speaker of the three.—(The same kind of interruption renewed.) Colonel TYnnu, beg►ged to say a few words more. In election, as in war, every stratagem' was fair (Mr; Wellesley expressed his dissent from this)—. and his hon. opponent availed himself of as many as he could. One day hi sugared him, another day he gave him u sedative, and another he gave hint a little soft soap, and then he opened his lower deckers of personal invective. against him. The Hon, Gentleman, after observing that the subscrip. titin box was in good repair, proceeded to defend the fairness of a subscription in a-contest like this, against an opponent of whom it was boasted that a fleet horse could not in a day get from one end to the other of his estates. At the • close of this speech, Mr. WELLESLEY begged to ask Sir H. Smyth for whom he intended to give his second vote. Sir H. Saturn---.I have voted for Mr. Tyrell and Mr. Western.--( Hisses and cries of" No coalition.") 'I: voted for Colonel Tyrell heeause I Concur with him, and I voted for Mr. Western to keep you out. - , --(Cheers and hisses.) WELLESLEY, in addressing himself again to the meeting-, adverted to what be called the inca pacity of the Hon.. and' Gallant Colonel to sit us a representative for Essex. , , The Gallant Caton.' hid himself given them a specimen of it the other evening, when he talked first of his legitimtti rights to sit for the county, and then said he meant legiti• mate pretensions, than which no two things could IWmore different. When the Hon. Colonel talked of history and of 'his faMily 'in - former :times, he shoWed that he was as ignorant of history, he would not say as his son who stood near hirr4 but as 'his son of eight years old. He meant net • this at per sonal invective, but as fair ground of objectipn. to colonel Tyrell's pretensions. Colonel TYCI:f.I, denied the truth of the allegation. He did think it personal invective, and he should take it so.--(Cheers and hisses.). .Mr. WELLustitv—yery well ; .if you do you know where to timid me.—(Cheers.)—Mr. Wellesley then proceededio contend, that as a public man h e had a right to make the attack upon any Wily who was hi s r i va l f or the twiny, and to pull . him to pieces it he conld;' but he spoke Of ,him only as a piddle man. NO.:doubt the Gallant Colonel might be thought a man of talent in his own eircle,—no &minim was a worthy and an exCellent man. .Colonel Tram., observed, that as the Gentleman said he did not mesa to insult hiM, he had 'no 'Wish to say a word More On the -subject..

A Jury assembled on Monday, at the Gray's•-Inn Coffee-house, for the purpose of inquiring into the state of mind of John Brand, Esq. lately residing at Sutton, in the county of Suffolk, but now in Par. liament.street, Westminster. The Commissioners were Mr. Phillimore, Mr. Whitmarsh, and Mr. Blunt. When 'Mr. Phillimore entered the room he in formed the Jury that he had received a letter- from Mr. Brand, requesting permission to attend while the witnesses were under exatnination, in order that he might h ear t h e i r testimony, and have the opportunity of cross-examining them. Mr. Brand also urged in the note, that he wai unprovided with professional assistance, and therefore wished to have time to consult attorney and counsel, and to have the: advice of some medical gentlemen, whom he should wish to have an interview with. The first request, Mr. Phillimore said, could not be refused. because Mr. Brand, being a party interested, had a right to remain in .the room (luring the inquiry, and to put such qu e sti ons as he Might - think proper to the witnesses. It would also be proper to give him the opportunity of consulting hi s f r i en d s , an d p ro . curing any assistance that he might deem proper. He proposed, therefore, that Mr. Brand be imme diately sent for. Dr. Sutherlend then left the room, and shortly after returned with Mr. Brand, in the custody of two keepers. He is a person of very mild and gen tlemanly appearance. He had on a fanlight jacket tinder his coat, and a sort of cloth glov e s cov er e d Ills hands. The jacket and gloves, however, did "not prevent him having the free use of his body.— He said that he wished to have the opportunity of sending for professional assistance; and he wished to ask if the Commissioners would allow him to de fend himself, and to have a solicitor by his side. Mr. PHILLIMORE said; that no objection would he made to his procuring any assistance that he might wish to have. Mr. Serjeant TADDY (who appeared in support of the Commission) observed, theta caveat to the Commission had been taken out by Mr. Young, an attorney. - Mr. Brand—Yes, Sir, I am aware of that; but Mr. Young is Mrs. Brand's solicitor : she has occa sion for his advice, for it is said that she also is madl It wa•stated that Mr. Young was out of town.— Mr. Brand then said, 'that he had employed several but.had been obliged to change them . often, The last .one visited him once when in prison, but not . since. He had written to Mr. Brougham, but that gentleman had informed him he could not leave the northern circuit. He then stated that he wished to write to the Hon. Mr. Law, but was apprehensive that his letter would not be delivered. The Commissioners said they would take care that the letter should be delivered, and every facility should be afforded to Mr. Brand to make his defence. Mr. PitmustquE recommended that the Jury should then be sworn, and adjourn to a future day. The Learned Gentleman explained to Mr. Brand that the names of the Jury would be called over ; that he could object to any of them • that only 15 were in at tendance; and that if h e pleased he might desire the attendance of 23. Me. Brand said it was not his wish to prolong the proceedings; but as the matter was one of very great importance to himself, he should wish the opinion of 23 gentlemen: Mr. WltiTsfAitsit then. inquired who had taken . out the commission, and was, informed that it h a d been obtained upon the application of Mr. Fitz- Brand, the heir-at-law. Mr. Brand (addressing the solicitor)--To save trouble, I should wish that the next time you come here you will bring proof that Mi. Fig. : Brand is the heir-at-lawthut his parents were married, and that he was born in wedlock. Mr. Ptitt.mmonic—lt is not necessary that the heir-at-laW, or any other near relative, should corn• mence a proceeding of this description. Any per son may apply. for a commission of lunacy, and, if there are grounds for it, it , will be granted. The names of tbe Jury were then? called over, and Mr. Brand objected to two of them, because he said these names were similar to some of his rela tions. Other gentlemen were also sent for to roake up the twenty-three. Mr. Brand then wrote a note to Mr. Law, which was taken to his chambers, but that gentleman being out of town, Mr. Brand for warded a letter to , Mr. Brundrett, solicitor, of the Temple, who shortly arrived, and took instructions frOm.Mr. Brand for his defence. The inquiry was then adjourned to Thursday morning at ten o'clock. NAPOLEON'S BOYHOOD. Much, and in very opposite spirit, has been said of Napoleon's boyhood. Enthusiasm, and ridiculous exaggeration, have been alike at work. Writers have painted the boy in the blackest colours, in order to have the pleasure afterwards of snaking a monster of the man. It will ever be thus with those whom their own genius or circumstances elevate above their com peers. Why constantly endeavour to discover in the first acts of infancy, the germ of great crimes or of shining virtues ? This is to view too abstractedly those circumstances, sports of fortune, and trains of events, which often, as if in spite of himself, urge on the individual to the highest renown. Men Absolutely will, that he who has . distinguished his manhood, should likewise have exhibited an extraordinary in fancy ; yet, does not experience shevr, that in truth one child can differ little from the ordi nary run ? and how often do we find precocious talent, promising the most brilliant future, pass through life - in a manner truly insignificant ? Bonaparte himself laughed heartily at all such fables, and Alt all th ose fooleries with which writings, dictated by admiration or hatred, have embellished or blackened his early.years. I may here recall a simple anecdote, which will be int media* recognised as the original of number less inventions and misrepresentations. boring the winter of 1783.84, so memor able for the quantity of snow which fell, young Napoleon shorted himself singularly annoyed. No snore little gardens —none of those delight ful seclusions helm much courted. During his play hours, he was constrained to mingle with the crowd of his cotnpanions, walking backwards and forwards in a large ball, To escape from this tiresome exercise, Napoleon contrived to stir up the whole school, by the proposal of a different amusement. This was to clear various passages through the snow in the great court, and with, shovels to erect horn works, dig trenches, raise parapets, construct platforms, ‘c &c. The first labour finished, " said he, , " we can divide into parties, and form a kind of siege ; and, as inventor of this new sport, I undertake to direct the attacks." Our joyous troop 'entered into this project with enthusiasm ; it was executed, and the mimic combat main tained for the space of fifteen days. Indeed, our warfare ceased not, till by gravel and small stones mixing with the suow of which we made our balls, many of the students, besiegers as well as besieged, had been pretty seriously wounded. `I remember well, that of all the scholars none was more severely pelted than myself with these missiles. It would be useless here to disprove various unfounded adventures of early life, such as that of Blanchard's balloon, falsely attributed to young Bonaparte. His t a fact, 6440 were, b soon directed to far other objests. He was ec , cupied with the political sciencts. A letter from the . principal of the school of 13rienne, Since communicated to me, states that, of his vacations, one was passed there, • while the preceding had been devoted to the society of the famous Abbe Raynal, who condescended to--receive said con. verse with the young student upon government, legislation, commerce, and other similar subjects. At our holiday fetes to which all the inha bitants of the place received invitations, guards were established for the maintenance of order, no one being permitted to pass to the , inner hall without a ticket, signed by the principal or sub. principal. The dignities of officer and subs!• tern were conferred only on the moat distill. guished ; and, as ranking among - these, there happened to Bonaparte, who commanded a sts. tion, a little adventure, which I cannot pass over in silence, because it afforded an opportunity 0f displaying his firmness of character: Upon one of the fetes of St. Louis, the janitor's wife, ented Ole, was, of course, perfectly well known , pres herself for admittance to the representation of the " Death of Ciesar," corrected, in which I played the part of Brutus. As she had nn ticket, and insisted, raisins a clamour, in the hope of passing, the sergeant of the 0 t he post reporte d to his officer Napoleon; he, learning t he cif • m cumances of the case, with an imperative tone exclaimed—w Let that woman be remov ed, Rh o bripgs into this place the licence of a cam p , This occurred in 1782.—Constable' s Misc ellany, Vol. LVll.—Bourrienne's Napoleon , V ol.
