The liberality of modern times has in some measure weakened the security which the wisdom of our ancestors thought fit to take against misconduct in Jurors. '—The early history of our law is full of se vere, punishments inflicted on Jurors for mis conduct. Proceedings of this nature have of late years gone into comparative disuse ; but we presume there are still means existing to remedy any grievous violation of a Juror's duty : and. upon this point we haVe to repeat what we have so often said—the security of our Liberty rests on the firm and fearless execution of the Law. N OTICE is hereby given, that Persons de sirous of COMPOUNDING for their ASSESSED TAXES, or of RENEWING their former COMPOSITIONS under the provisions of the Act of the fist .and second George IV. cap. 113, may, on application to the Assessors or Collectors of the Parish in which they reside, or to the Surveyor of the District, receive the forms of notice applica ble to their cases; which forms must he returned by them, with the declarations therein, properly filled up, as pre- Scribed by the Act, on or before the sth of April, 1642 ; hut Persons who have reduced their Establishment since they entered into Composition, whereby they would be ch;:rge able with a less amount of Assessed Taxes for the Year com mencing the sth April, 1822, than the duty coMpounded for, and by reason thereof, are desirous of waving the said Com position, and entering into a new Composition, are required to give notice thereof to the Surveyor of their District, within three Calendar Months, after the 10th July, 1821.

The principal business expected was the proof of Mr. CARROLL'S alleged debt of 18,0001., to which opposition was intended ; but that Gentleman not appearing at half-past two o'clock (two o'clock being the-time of his own appointment) the Commissioners adjourned. THE MURDER AT HIGHGATE.—Barrett, the person charged with the murder of Sell, the watchman at Highgate, underwent a further examination yesterday, before the Rev. Dr. OWEN, and a variety of evidence was adduced; but though some circumstances of a suspicious nature were given in evidence, there were none tending absolutely to implicate him in that crime. It will he recollected, that when the house of Barrett was first searched, a cpantity of linen and other effects, the property of Mr. Roths child, were found in it ; and a suspicion was thence created, that his wife, who had lived as servant with that gentleman, had stolen them from him. After the evidence relative to the murder of Sell had been received, Barrett and his wife underwent a separate examination on the charge of robbery ; and the whole of Mr. Rothschild's household attended. Several wit nesses were examined, and the prisoners were then taken back to the House of Correction. [BRITISH PRESS.] - The .friends of Russia, or rather the enemies of Turkey, in the present question between these Powers, have already thrown. out a defiance to England by observing, that in the event of a contest the opposition of England to Russia would be powerless. We shall not be so injudicious as to reply to this sally, but we cannot avoid again observing, what we noticed- yesterday, that it is assumed very flippantly by the continental writers that England, has avowed herself the champion of Turkey ; while in point of fact the British Cabinet has as yet observed- the most cautious silence upon the subject. Perhaps it would have tended much to the advantage of those commer cial interests which are supposed to control all our feelings and actions, if the British Cabinet had long 'since explicitly avowed, its intentions respecting thiS matter. There can be no doubt that the uncertainty which has so long,prevailed upon this point has • very seriously deranged the trade between thig , country. and the Levant,-,for no British merchant can calculate upon the interests which he ought to pursue=not. knowing what part his_ own Government may adopt in the event of.a war between Russia and the Porte. This mysterious reserve 'of our Government .upon mat -ters of sued-..magnitude at the present moment, forms a luditrOUS contrast with the readiness oc casionally expressed_by the Ministers during the sittings of Parliament -to afford the fullest in formation, for the benefit of the trading interests of the country. It is 'quite-amusing sometimes to watch the plans -that are formed for bringing out the information, in x parliamentary manner. Some member is instructed to ask certain ques tions of the Minister, who rises Land with great gravity expresses his regret that an opportunity had not been previously afforded to him of in forming Parliament and the 'country upon the subject of the inquiry. Now, if it were advisable that the information should have been given, one cannot easily imagine why the Minister did not take adiantage Ottler of: his power of speak ing - Di Parliament, or of the public press of the country, to communicate his important intel ligence. We should consider it,an essential ad vantage to the .trading part of •our community, if the Ministers Of the Crown would now, through the- medium of the i;'attette, or other means, apprize the country of the feelings now enter tained by the British Government upon the pro priety of foreign interference in the domestic affairs of the Turkish Empire ; and whether Russia, in urging their present demands upon the Porte, acts in accordance with the views of all the Allied Powers of Europe. [MORNING POST.] The French Papers to the 9th inst. which have arrived since our last, have brought no official account of the commencement of hostilities ; but contain several articles which confirm our inter pretation of those facts, from which some of our contemporaries had drawn the conclUsion that peace between Russia and Turkey would not be broken. 'We considered them, on the contrary, as strong indications of approaching war. We could see nothing pacific in the dispatching of _couriers to the Commanders of the Russian fleet and armies, immediately after the arrival of Ba ron Strogouoff at Odessa, W e thought it. most likely that they carried instructions for opening the campaign, and we find that the opinion en tertained on the spot coincides with our own. At Odessa, though hitherto the nominal seat (for we much doubt whether it ever was the birth-place) of all those rumours of peace which consoled commercial speculators for the daily assassination of the Greeks, no doubt was enter tained that hostilities would speedily commence ; and it was even thought " that the Couriers which had been dispatched to the fleet and head quarters, were bearers of the necessary instruc tions.'! Au article from Lemberg is still more explicit on the subject, and states that as a fact, which we only presented as a natural infe rence. We trust, therefore, that when the advo cates for the continuance of Turkish oppression in Europe shall next wish to discourage the idea of a war salutary (strange to say !) to humanity and to religion, they will at least , select some ground which does not form of itself the strongest refutation to their arguments. • [THE TIMES.] The inquest sat again yesterday. Some wit nesses were examined, but afforded nothing new. The coroner summed up, the Jury again sepa rated, but will return their verdict, it is supposed, this morning. - We respect the office of Coroner, as we do every other whiell our ancient Consti tion has provided for the redress of wrong, the protection of life, and the defence of the subject against lawless force and outrage. The Coroner ought to have some general knowledge_of the criminal law. It is his-privilege and his duty to explain that law to the Jurors whom he has sum moned, either at their first assembling, or after they have heard the whole evidence to which they can have access. The part of the law which the Coroner ought to expound is that which, concerns the subject matter of the inquest; but there his duty, and there his power, ends. Of the application of that law to the question which they have to de cide, the Jury, and they alone, are to judge. We state this proposition distinctly, because some attempts have been made to deter the present Jurymen from thinking for themselves, and to lay them prostrate at the 'feet of the'Corouer. If the Jury listen to such treacherous insinuations, they betray the most solemn of all trusts : the Coroner dictates the application of the law ; he, in fact, dictates the verdict ; and becomes at once both Judge and Jury.. If this be law, Mr. Adolphus and the Coroner might as well settle the business comfortably between them; and if they cannot quite agree, call in the Corporal of the Life Guards as an arbitrator. The Coroner has %taken, we perceive, a somewhat different view of the subject from ours. He seems, to wards the close of his charge, to think that the firing was the beginning of the vio lence used by the soldiers. But the sol diers, according to the evidence of their own comrades, did " cut and slash and drive among the people," and that before the people had raised a single stone against them : whether they cut or bruised is less than nothing. They struck at the people—and is a brickbat more a weapon of offence than a heavy and naked sword ? " They cut and slashed"—these ara the very words of one of the soldiers, on his oath; and yet it is pretended that the Life Guards cannot be considered as using force until they began to fire ! Good God ! in what century are we living? Have we dropped back to the reign of Charles 11., when Sir Roger L'Estrange, a favourite court writer, put it on record, that "a citizen's skull is but a thing to try the temper of a soldier's sword upon ?" [MORNING CHRONIeLE.] A Morning Paper, observing on the conclu sions that have been drawn from the evidence on Haywood and Henchman, desires any Juryman, or other person, to ask himself what would have been the consequence had any individual soldier refused to force open the gates ? 64 lie would, " (it is added), " have been liable to be brought to a Court Martial and shot, and yet for obeying the same order he is to be hanged." Undoubt edly this presents, in a very striking point of view, the wickedness of placing the soldier under the necessity of committing either murder or disobedience of orders. The penalty being the same in either instance, it is not sur prising that he should prefer the commission of that offence which is the least inconsistent with his professional habiti. But we really can not perceive that the people have the more reason to be satisfied with the aifairof the 14th, because the soldiers were, by the wisdom of those that employed them, necessitated to commit a crime against their own laws or those of the nation.— Our commiseration is indeed excited for men placed in so cruel a dilemma, and our indignation the more strongly roused against those who so wickedly and wantonly placed them in it. [NEW TIMES.] More witnesses were examined yesterday at the instance of the Coroner's Jury on Richard Honey. After the evidence was closed and the Coroner had delivered his charge to the Jury, they adjourned to this day, in order to make up their minds " comfortably" on their verdict. This is a very cool and easy mode of doing business, and such, pleasant and recrea tive delays are amongst the advantages resulting from the neglect of ancient practices. We make no comment on the evidence nor on the manner in which the Inquest has been conducted ; but a few general observations may not be altogether useless. There are two great safeguards of Bri tish freedom, the Liberty of the Press, and Trial by Jury. To the latter belongs, as an important branch of the system, the Coroner's Inquest ; for though the verdict of the In quest is not conclusive, it is impossible to say that it must not greatly tend either to promote or to frustrate the ends of justice. When an innocent man is declared, on the oath of twelve Jurors, to be guilty of "Wilful Murder," he is deeply, perhaps irremediably injured ; but if —(and here we imagine a case the occurrence of which in this country appears scarcely possible) —if such a solemn declaration be given from mo tives of personal or party animosity—if the Juror has shown a thirst for the blood of -a victim, without regard to the most obvious rules of Jus tice—what words can sufficiently stigmatise the perjured villain, the perverter of the laws, the assassin of character and of life ?—Corruptio op timi pessima. Nations, like individuals, are brought most certainly to destruction by the perversion of that which is . best in their composition. It is because the Li berty of the Press and the Trial by Jury are so precious, that an unprincipled Journalist, or a perjured Juror, deserves from his countrymen so deep and general an execra tion. During the progress of the late inquest, there have been two classes of Journalists inde fatigably employed in perverting alike the fasts, and the law of the case ; one class, from a settled hatred to the existing laws and Government, which they hope to subvert by means of a de luded populace ; the other from a base and blind thirst of lucre, which they think they can best gratify by pandering to the passions of the same populace. With respect to the perjury of a Juror, we can of course only speak gene nerally and hypothetically ; but here it is very material to observe that there are two modes" in which a Juror may be perjured ; one is, when through malignity, or wilful neglect, he declares a false fact, as if he, from such causes, declares an individual to be identified, who is not identified on any reasonable con struction of the whole evidence ;—the other mode is, when having reasonable means of knowing, by • the instruction of the Coroner, or otherwise, that the case does amount in law only to J ustifiabic Homicide, or at the most to Mau- What fresh pretext for inflaming the popular mind the busy craftiness of the Radical faction may invent or find, we know not ; but those who do not properly calculate upon their talents for mischief, or sufficiently consider the opportunities for mis representation and excitement, which will always be furnished to the agents of confusion by passing events, in the present state of society, seem to have considered the affray at Knights bridge as the forlorn hope of the party. And as the leaders were not fortunate enough to produce any serious accident on that day ; as no opportunities were then afforded for fresh in quests, or the exhibition of another public funeral, their occu pation appears to be suspended, at least for the present, and the metropolis may possibly enjoy a few months of respite from the evils of mobocracy. The inquest on the body of Honey still continues to sit. But except that the columns of the daily Papers are sometimes, perhaps of necessity, devoted to the disgusting details of its proceedings, we do not perceive that it produces any other sensible effect, either bad or good. Whatever were the objects and hopes of those who got up this drama for public representation, the principal performers in it have so egregiously overacted their parts, they haVe so torn the passion to the rags, in their anliety to awaken the feelings of the audience, that the failure has been complete. John Bull, though he is egregiously humbugged every day, and is prone to fall under the influence of every new delusion, is not yet quite so dull and insensible as his Radical tormentors imagine. Hoodwinked he may be for a time, but he has not lost his eyes; and when he recovers the use of them, as appears to be the case on the present occasion, those who have baited' nd worried him into an unnecessary and dangerous state of excitement, will do well to take care of his horns. This inquest may be kept up as long as the Jurymen like their occupation ; and the rublic prints may be condemned to retail their miserable squabbles, their ignorance of every principle by which their examination should be directed, and their skill in browbeating and insulting every witness who is unfortunately compelled to undergo their inquisitorial ordeal. But the public have long ago made up their minds upon the subject The verdict, be it what it may, will not weigh a feather in the scale of public opinion. And, as if to convince them of the humiliating fact, the newspapers have announ ced the formation of a very respectable Committee in the Me tropolis, for the purpose of rewarding the good conduct and for bearance of those very troops, on whom such indecent effo:ts have been made, in certain quarters, to affix the stain of cruelty and murder. We hope that this effort to rescue the public from the disgrace of appearing even to connive at the in juries and insults which have been heaped on these brave men, will be successful : • that the subscription will prove worthy. of the occasion, and shew that THE PEOPLE are still superior to those delusions, which the radical agitators have so sur cessfully practised upon the Mon. We are not without hopes, that some positive good may yet arise out of the grievous evils which these mob commotions have lately produced. It will be well, if it induces those in authority seriously and care- , fully to review the present system acted upon by the police on such occasions. The result of so frequently calling forth the military in aid of the civil power, without employing them effectually to disperse those assemblages of riotous and disor derly persons, with which the civil authorities conceived them. selves to be incapable of coping without such aid, might have been foreseen, before it was thus lamentably manifested. The military have been called out for the purpose of intimidating the mob, but they have been compelled to sit comparatively inactive on their horses, and to indure revilings and ill treatment, until they have entirely ceased to be an object of fear. It is noto rious, that their appearance is generally the signal for more ac tive disturbance ; that the mob begin to think they have a right to abuse and pelt them, and that they have so often experienced their forbearance, as to have left off calculating even on the possi bility of suffering any serious injury from their weapons. At last however, that effect has been produced, which might al ways have been expected. The soldiers have been compelled to fight for their lives. They patiently endured the most pro voking insults, and the most grievous personal injuries; and this for a time which no individual among them, had he not been under military discipline, could have endured them. But at length they were driven to the necessity of defending. them.. selves ; and because, as a body, they have done that in self-de fence, which any individual among them would have been fully, justified, by the law, and by the plainest dictates of reason, in . doing long before, they have been branded as murderers, and industriously held up to.a furious mob as the Objects of their un- , relenting hate and vengeance. Surely the worst enemy of his country could not wish for, a fairer opportunity to inflict a deadly injury upon her, than has thus been afforded by the means which the Radicals have obtained, of awakening a deadly feud between the military and the lower orders. We trust, however, that the good sense and discipline of the British Army will preserve them from the snare thus - artfully laid for them and we hope that those Authorities to whom the preservation of 'the public peace is committed, will now see that Military aid is, and ought to be, their last resource ; that it should never be called in unless in cases of plain and absolute necessity ; and that, when summoned, it should always be promptly and vigo rously employed. A few instances of such decisive conduct would soon produce a salutary effect : we should not so , fre quently have to lament the evil of popular, commotion ; the mob would once more feel a salutary dread of legal authority ; and the Police would be once more the efficient guardian of public tranquillity.
