OLD BAILEY-(FRIDAY.) MURDER.. About half-past ten o'clock, the Judges GRAHAM, BEST, and RICHARDSON arrived. The Court was excessively crowded ; the Bench was filled with Magistrates and persons of distinction. Thomas Prior, capitally indicted for the murder of his aunt, Mrs. Elizabeth Martin, in Hosier-lane, by cutting and stab bing her with a knife as she lay in bed, was brought into Court, or rather carried in, by two officers, and placed at the bar to plead to the indictment. His wild and maniac-like con duct completely evinced the disordered state of his intellect. Mr. Justice BEST addressed the Jury after they were sworn, and said that it was their province, on the present occasion, to try if the Prisoner was in a state of mind capable of pleading to the indictment. Mrs. Ann Shelton had lodged with the Prisoner and the de ceased for some time ; deposed that she believed the Prisoner had been a maniac for some time previous to his stabbing his aunt. Mrs. Jackson of Clerkenwell-green, who had employed the prisoner in turning a mangle, she said she believed he had been deranged fora considerable time. . _ Rev. Mr. Cotton, Ordinary of Newgate, had seen the pri. soner frequently since he had been in Newgate, and believed he was a complete idiot. Mr. Holmes, surgeon of Newgate, had attended the Pri soner, arid thought he was in a state of idiotcy. Mr. Justsce BEST addressed the Jury, and, they returned a verdict—" That he was insane, and incapable of pleading."— The Prisoner bowed on retiring from the bar. He was ordered to be confined during the King's pleasure. MURDER.—Etizabeth Jews, widow, aged thirty-three, and John Morrison, corawainer, aged twenty-two, were placed at 'the bar, and indicted for the wilful murder of a new. born male infant child, borne by the female Prisoner. [The male Prisoner, a young man of genteel appearance and mild countenance was dressed in a handsome suit of black, and paid strict attention to the evidence offered. Jones seemed to be labouring under great indisposition both of body and mind. She wore a light dress, covered with a scarlet shawl.] The Prisoners were moved from the dock. MURDER IN WEST -STREET, SMITHFIELD.—MichaeI Come, and Thonias Clines, were put to the bar on an indict ment charging them and a man named Grantley, (not in cus tody) with the wilful murder of James Murty, on the 20th of July last, in the parish of St.' Sepulchre. They also stood in dicted on the Coroner's Inquisition for manslaughter. The circumstances of this case have already been stated in the Police Report. It appeared that the parties had quarrelled at a public house, and that the deceased received a severe blow in the conflict ; he was carried to the. Hospital, where he died. The prisoners made no defence, but called several persons to speak to their character, all of whom gave them very good ones for humanity, &c. Mr. Baron GRAHAM summed up the evidence, and the Jury found them—Not Guilty. Mr. Baron GRAHAM said, although there might not be suf ficient evidence to convict the prisoners, or either of them, of the murder, yet, if they believed the evidence, it would be for them to say whether they could entertain any doubt of their being guilty of manslaughter. The Jury intimated that they were satisfied, and the verdict was recorded. True bills were on Thursday night found against the Bishop Jocelyn, and the soldier, Moverin. Plant only was examined, his evidence being considered by the Grand Jury as more than sufficient to criminate the parties. All the witnesses were ordered to be in readiness to go to. Ireland.

The following Petition to the LORDS of the ADMIRALTY, with the favourable answer which it has received, will be read with great interest by the commercial part of the community : PETITION. " Mr Lonns,—The Petition of the undersigned British Merchants humbly represents to your Lordships— " That the manufacturing interests of these realms was within a very few years past in an alarming state of depression. " That this depression arose from a want of demand from neighbouring countries, which now manufacture their own goods, and many 'of which are making efforts to become ex porters of the articles which they formerly received from us. " That the manufacturers have only been relieved from the apprehensions which were lately so appalling, by an unex pected and increased demand arising mainly from a new trade with the Independent States of South America, and with' our possessions in the East Indies. " That the profits of the manufacturers are now very small, calculating the current prices of goods in England. "That the low prices are necessary' to the continuance of their present prosperity successfully to compete with foreign produce, and to induce a growing consumption in new countries. " That every thing which tends to prevent the free egress of manufactures ; to remove confidence in the security of enter prise ; or, to increase the expenses of shipments, must operate to render more distant that period of prosperity which will serve to increase demand, and which manufacturers look for ward to in the New World. " That the exports of manufactures to Jamaica and the West India islands have of late years been important. " That the goods so exported were chiefly sold to the Main- land. " That the idea of a regular and established commerce direct to the Mainland, enabling manufacturers and merchants to avoid the expences of intermediate ports, prevent shipments to Jamaica. " That the shipments to the Mainland are prevented by in security for our ships, arising from the extensive depredations committed by pirates in the Western seas. " That besides the spoliation of property, the atrocious bar barities committed on unarmed and helpless individuals, are so frightful as to create alarm, and to prevent men from under taking the voyage. " That if it be possible for men, calculating the profits of enterprize to be excited by humanity, repugnance must be felt at being instrumental in exposing men to such barbarity, rapaciousness, and even death. " That the assurers demand ten guineas for a risk to the Mainland, which under ordinary circumstances ought to be done at from two to three guineas per cwt. " That it it even difficult to insure at this enormous pre- mium. " That although shippers may be induced iri a limited de gree to submit to such a burden, they do not feel that under takings which are made with so much risk and so much doubt as to their arriving at their destination, can fairly be considered as operations resting on such security as merchants ought to look for. " That the protection given by America to her commerce with the new world insures to het subject a precedence in markets, which we shall lose, and the efforts to suppress a race of marauders, formidable as a power in a state of warfare, will insure to them advantages which are still within our reach. " That a continuance of the difficulties which now exist must tend to make the ships of other nations the carriers to Colombia, and injure in some degree our shipping interest. " Your petitioner humbly adds-that he is strongly interested in the commerce to the Mainland. " That he has already chartered on ship the " Mary," for Maracaibo, and another for the same destination, is about to proceed ; and although in his humble capacity as an individual he claims little at your Lordships' hands, yet, as speaking for the interests of a large community, he would humbly hope that your Lordships will take into your serious consideration the best means to give security to a trade which promises to become a source of wealth to our country, and to give animation to that spirit of industry which has made England what she is, and which is in truth the basis of her glory and pre-eminence. Your petitioner does not presume to know what steps may have been taken to alleviate these complaints, but British mer chants repose a confidence in his Majesty's Government, that no measure will be neglected which can increase the nation's prosperity, or justify that confidence; bntyour petitioner would humbly beg that publicity might be given to every measure which, consistently with the nation's welfare, could be made known, tending to remove the difficulties which your petitioner humbly, but imperfectly, sets forth, and to alleviate the tears so commonly entertained. He would presume to suggest to your Lordships that much good would be done for securing the trade with Colombia, by appointing a station for convoy f r om an island to the windward, such as Barbadoes and St. Vincent. Curacoa would be still better, if the measure be not inconsistent with the policy or views of the Dutch Government. This seems so necessary, that he would implore your Lordships to reflect on it, and to give to it efficiency without delay, if, in your Lord ship' judgment, you should deem it expedient. " Your petitioner is aware that convoys are granted at Ja maica ; but he would humbly state that this station answers well for the Ports of Santa Martha, Carthagena, and the Ports in the Gulf of Mexico, but it is too much to leeward to answer the purposes for vessels ;bound to the important Ports of La Guayra and Maracaibo. Your petitioner would desire likewise humbly to represent, that from the comparatively little direct intercourse which has existed with Colombia and the Mainland, the assurers have many doubts as to the knowledge of navigators of the coast ; and it is highly desireable that your Lordships would take such steps on this subject as your Lordships may deem fit ; and your petitioner - , in thus presuming to petition your Lordships, begs leave to express his confidence, that although he does so as an humble individual, there would exist no difficulty in obtaining; to the sense of his petition a multiplicity of signatures ; he re lies not the less on - your Lordships' judgment and operative measures, and lie would humbly beg your Lordships would give him such an early notification of what your Lordships may think fit to do as will relieve him from the difficulties he is under in effecting insurance on the cargo and ship which is about to sail. • " Your etitioner has the honour to be, &c. (Signed) " JOHN LOWE. " Sept. 10, 1822. " 27, New Broad street, " To the Right Hon. the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty." ANSWER. " Admiralty-Office, 2d Sept. 1822. " Sin,—Having laid before my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty the Memorial addressed by you to their' Lord. ships on the 10th instant, I am commanded by their Lordships to acquaint you, that they have directed the Commanding Officer of Barbadoes to afford such protection to the trade from thence to Maracaibo as may be in his power. " I am, Sir, your very humble servant, (Signed) "JOHN BARROW. " Mr. Lowe, 27, New Broad-street." SUN. FOR TILE SUN. THE GREEKS. The apathy of JOHN BULL to the Greeks has also been ascribed to a unconscious statement of the interests of England with respect to Greece— some are apt to suppose if Greece were in the ascendant, our commercial interests would fall— and as the " crown of the wise are their riches" it would be consummate folly to favour them at the present crisis,—and it must be confessed such is the state of commerce in general, not only in this country, but every where else, that it is our duty to pause even when honour and humanity seem to bid us advance, before we venture to arrest any one of the few commercial channels upon which the prosperity of the state itself, and therefore its very power to assist others so greatly depend. But where is the proof that as Greece rises our commerce must fall ? As far as we have been able to understand the principles of trade which have been so much more clearly ;aid down in modern times, we have thought with ADAM SMITH, that its prosperity depends not Upon one of the trading parties alone, but upon the pro sperity of both. "As the Greeks improve our Levant Company will meet with more compe ' titian, but the stream of general commerce, with ' our advantages, will be greatly swelled. It may be to the interest of companies that commerce should be exclusive, but it is absurd to suppose that a country can buy without selling to a pro portionate amount. Commerce, in its nature, can look to nothing but gain, and the more extensive our commerce, ccelris paribus, the more likely we are to advance in capital, and if ever there were a time when it should be our object to extend our cbmmerc: a intercourse it must be the present, when our goods are rotting in our own warehouses, for want of an outlet, or undersold in the markets abroad, because they cannot find purChasers that can afford to consume them, Now, it is quite ridiculous to suppose that Greece and, Turkey, of their own accord, can ever meet together as friends; our trade with both will be completely stopped if we do not use our best endeavour to adjust their differences upon an amicable footing nothing will be heard for some time but the cries of vengeance; and Mercury will be too much stunned with the thunderbolts of Mars to be able to keep head. Conscious of this, America, it is reported, has offered her assistance in the hopes to obtain some spot where she may fix herself to pursue her darling projects of commercial enter. prise. In _such a juncture how can it be the policy of our merchants to hold aloof, and suffer these forestallers of profit to stand in the way of our interest? It would surely be far more expe dient at least to preserve the little commerce we have been accustomed to enjoy from that quarter, by standing forward as an umpire and friend td both, and not shewing, as John Bull has been ever too apt to do, merely his horns for battle, without reckoning upon the peril and the cost and after many blows and bruises in hard-fought campaigns ; leaving the whole of the prey to be divided among his more cunning and rapacious allies, who unite together at our expence in our holy alliance, religiodsly attached to its own aggrandisement, and eager to make all others crouch beneath the yoke ) and fall down at its very feet to kiss his Holiness's toe. Hitherto, as far as our information reathesi we are not - aware of any great commerce now at stake with Greece in its enslaved state, not enough at least to repress our feeling of honour or humanity, so natural toward men, who are at last roused with a noble and patriotic zeal to vindi cate their rights and liberties. We should be the last people in 3the world to suffer any but the most determined and uncon tested policy to damp the energy of a nation that will no longer bear its fetters, and dares, with the true British spirit, to be free.—For this is the true British spirit, whatever may be the nar row doctrine of some among us, who, though born in a crib so incompatible with slavery, are trying all they can to propagate its wretched principles through the medium of the press, which lives but in liberty, and yet is made the organ of dissemi nating servile opinions that would stifle it at its birth. Such men class all the advocates for the Greeks among the partisans of Napoleon 11., and the Greeks themselves among the Irish White Boys, the Carbonari, and Illuminati, who are said to deal in assassinations, and all to be equally revolutionists."—(New Times.) What then ? are they to be called revolutionists whoare bursting asunder the chains which have been so ignominiously imposed ?—are they to be accused of murder and a delight in blood, who have only arisen to avenge tremselves on the horrible and outrageous cruelties of their tyramiical govern nors ?—shall the blood of the victim that is se , crificed to the ir►f'rnal daemon, and that of the priest that makes the horrid sacrifice be account ed the same in the sight of God and man ?—or shall they be accused of a revolutionary spirit who are striving to expel their oppressors from a land which they gained by usurpation in the first in stance,. and maintained possession of ever since, by tyranny and extortion. When we call men by the odious name of revolutionist (that naturally inspires the witnesses to a modern revolution with horror and disgust), we ought to be very careful that we ar•e not abusing real patriots, who would never attempt to disturb, as it is call ed, the order of things, and old established rights—if those rights were not so grossly mid inveterately wrong, and that order were any thing but the most oppressive anarchy. It is from the horrors of such ana.rchy that the Greeks are RICE SEVENPECt: endeavouring to emerge ; and.such alarmists re.; mind us of the ultra Advocate-General's speech upon the conspiracy of La Ittichelle—,who display- ed all the power of his eloquence to alarm the fears of the jury with a dreadful account of the Carbonari, and pl o ts a ll th e wor ld over ; an d .; `. took the opportunity, in . his .zeal against that party, to tell them, if convicted, the prisoners were guilty. It matt-ers little whether there were proof or not, they ,must look to the in fallible inspiration of conscience and of good sense. • But, however truely this may be, Or venial at' least in an advocate who is not supposed to have any thing.to do with the truth, but leaves that to: the Judge alone ; or however palatable it may be to a French jury, who may have the form and not the substance of the British jury—the jury and prwsiditim of this country---L-we cannot enter into his feelings, having been long in the habit of looking to facts for our conviction, and not once supposing that the jury can so completely neglect their duty as to be content with what is called the inspiration of Conscience, or even td Stiffer the common prejudice out Of doors, with whatever evidence it may come. be fore them, to interfere with the plain statement of facts as delivered to them in course. 'When they trust the testimony of a good conscience, it is the conviction which they feel from the evidence of the witnesses as they stand up in succession ; and upon that evidence alone, and not upon any vain imagination of their own, or presumption of others, not even upon opi nions that have been formed by themselves be fore the trial actually took place, they deliver their verdict, as the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help their God,. to whom they do not trust for infallible inspiration, bUt only for that. portion of , good sense, which is able to found a fair and honest opinion upon what a renowned - Minister used to call evidence of Nets:. We select the following obserVations frdai Mr. Sheridan's pamphlet, rebutting the charges brought against the Greeks, which attribute their exertions in the cause of independence to the worst of motives. . . "To throw into confUsion the whole of EUrope, if their revolt were no more than au explosion of democratic prindiples; which pervade more or less every country, but are concealed in many till a more-favourable opportunity offers of hurl ing down Monarchs from their thrones,- and re ducing the htiman race to a state of savage and. lawless equality. - Alas the wretched object of this invective are Unable to comprehend its meaning. They understand not its mysterious import, they are equally ignorant of Jacobins, Reformers, Liberates, and CarbOnri ; they fee 4, indeed, that they are subjected to a despotism 0' intolerable weight, and they presume td inquire by what right it is imposed upon them ? The stern answer is ready—by the right of conquest ; but instinctive reason- then convinces them that What hag been torn froth the . Owner by brutal violence, may be brought td be recovered by the same meant; if there be no other possible me thod ; and they reject every argument which is indolislstent with this first law of nature; as the hateful offspring of abject and trembling ser vility. " 4 is possible, Sir, that yod mny be under the influence of that morbid fear of democratic en-, CrOachment, which has bound with its spells so many of the spirits of, the wise and good, and has forced the firmest friends of freedom' by its baleful delusions to plunge their daggers 'tit° her heart. But the time is nearly arrived when the incantations of this blood-stained hag must tease; her abominations are bedome the scandal and . execration of the world. It is true indeed that a knowledge of the real principles of government, those principles which England was the first to' practice is rapidly diffusing itself ;' and shall we be so incredibly selfish as to endeavour to impede its progress ? Base as tire attempt would be, it would be still more vain and fruitless. The devouring blaze of legitimacy is rapidly Sinking into a pale and flickering flame, and woe to those who continue to guide their steps by its faint and ominous light! We may hope to see the absolute Monarchies of the earth subside, one after the other, into representative govern.; ments, equally removed from the despotism of th'e one and of the many, and the tranquillity of the world may be secured upon the basis of the admirable maxim lately laid clown by an en= lightened statesman, ' that to rebel against free= dom is the greatest crime, to rebel against tyranny the greatest virtue.' FOR THE SUN. PARLIAMENTARY Eorroa—We have heard much` of the " Good Old Times," of Short Parliaments, of Honest Votets,and of Obedient Representatives! —All these. in the reign of Good Queen BESSi bluff Kind Harry ; (there is nothing said of CA.• THOITt Mary) and the earlier reigns. But, Sir, I begin to doubt about. these Good Old Times, for I find it stated by the founder of the Illus trious House of Cavendish, who was gentleman usher to Cardinal Wolsey, that when his master was in danger of impeachment, his Secretary, Cromwell - , determined to get into Parliament,. in order to serve him, and therefore rode from Esher to London where he met an old friend, Sir TIIOIIAS Rtissur.r.! whose son was a Burgess in Parliament—that is, sat for a Boroughand between them it was agreed that young Russell should go out, and Cromwell come in ; the whole affair being arranged and completed in three dap !* —So much for Purity of Election in the Good Old TiMes!
