should be treated in the same manner as Generals
- Moreau and Pichegni, that I should be made a
Merechal of France, and be appointed to a Govern-
ment.
" For all these promises, I engaged to furnish all
the info maim; that I should think interesting to the
cause of the Princes, to let them know what friends
still remained faithful to the former Government;
and if, among the Generals with whom I was ac-
quainted, I should find any disposed to listen to my
proposals, to promise them, in the name of the King,
that they should retain the tank they then held, and
the some with regard to the civil department.
" Every thing being arranged, and the accused
Dubuc, being still with D'lmbet t, the latter intro-
duced to him, or to use his own language, gave him
Rossolin, as a man devoted to the cause of the
inces, and to accompany him in any important
business; or when the accused llstbue should have
celleeted sufficient materiels, Itossolini might be dis.
pinched with them to England.
" Bertrand de Molevilie likewise makes his ap-
pearance in this business: to the gold of the Exche-
qiier, to the instructions of the English police, to
promises, to the hopes held out by the agent of the
Bourbons, lw adds, to ensure the success of the
operation, the infallible secret of his sympathetic
ink, and gives the receipt for it to Rossolin.
" The Police, acquainted with the fait, secured
the prisoners, and seized those of their papers ca-
pable of furnishing any information.
" The accused Dubuc, after hesitating in his first
examination, confessed, in the second, the whole of
the feels I have submitted to you.
Rossolin long endeavoured to conceal the truth;
at length, pressed by the proofs which escaped him, I
and the papers seized on his person, and the exa-
mination of Dubuc, he confessed the truth."
The reporter then entering into the discussion,
and particularly calling the attention of the judges
to the crime of espiollesee, :hews that the crime is
proved, and that the accused is convieted of it.
" it is acknowledged," says he, " that Dubuc
received a laission from the Baron d'lmbert, in-
vested with the powers of the i.ricrant Count d'Ar-
tois ; that the objet of this mission was to come to
France, and to send from France to the enemy all
the information that could be of utility to him ; to
make him acquainted with what friends still remain
faithful to the cause of the Boa: bons, and to cor-
rupt the generals and acquaintance of the accused.
" Rossolin confesses that he was charged with the
same mission; that it was given him a long time
since; that he came to Bayonne for that purpose,
and it only depended on himself that this mission
was not fulfilled ; that he was even charged to watch
over Dubuc, and that he was thus a spy over a spy."
The letter written with sympathetic ink by d'lm-
bert contains the following instruetions, which, I
repeat it, would oblige us to suspea Dubuc of a
much greater crime than that of espionage, of which
he is convieled.
" Without doubt the approaching journey to
hair, the discontent of the chiefs of the army, the
new dispositions, and, in particular, the abolition of
vassal-labour and the forced conscription, all tend
to render the moment extremely favourable for
striking a great blase ; let us not lose the opportu-
nity. In the mean time, my dear Dubuc, I must
repeat, that I have received horn the King and
Monsieur, the most formal assurances respelling
every thing that concerns our interest : and you may
be perfealy assured that if you are so unfortunate as
to fail in the concerted rutermise, the Government
will treat you with the same distinaion with
which it received at the time, Georges and Piche-
gru. This is what I have been expressly charged to
tell you, by the person who is exti entely attached to
you as well as to Rossolin. I must repeat to you,
that he has given the most precise orders for the
tranquillity and comfort of your family ; and you
may rely, in every respell, on his punauality and
honour. Now, tell Rossolin, that I request him to
give me the most minute details on all that passes,
without forgetting the enquiries in my letter, No.
IV. When did the squadrons of Rochefort, Tou-
lon, Brest, and L'Orient, sail—and what is become
of them ? The movements of the flotilla, armies,
Sec. ? The information from the Officer, that you
gave me hopes of receiving? In short, as the com-
munications are now open, let our correspondence
be more alive, and give me intelligence once a
week. The person desires and begs it ; ant:, for
my part, my dear Dubuc, I salute you cordially
and wait with impatience for the happy moment
when you will enable me to share your dangers and
pitalabours—Adieu! Answer courier by courier;
for there are three mails, without having been able
to give you any intelligence. (Signed) IPA sr KT."
" This letter being subsequent to that likewise
seized on the persons of the accused, and crowning
their confessions, convias them of a flagrant crime,
and establishes the evidence.
" I conclude, that the accused Dubuc and Ros-
solin be declared guilty of espionage."
This is succeeded by the sentence.

On Wednesday last a most wanton ad of indis-
cretion occurred upon Kersal Moor, Cumberland,
soon after the last heat of the race. While the
course that is within the cords, was crowded with
foot people, two men on horseback rode furiously
over the ground without giving the least previous its-
timation, by which a woman, having a child in her
arms, was knocked down with such violence, that,
we are informed, the former was so dreadfully
maimed as to render her recovery extremely doubt-
ful, and the latter thrown to a considerable distance,
but unfortunately received no material injury. A
man is also said to have had his arm broken, and an
eye dangerously lacerated, by the same horses, the
riders of which gallopped off with all possible speed.
A melancholy accident occurred on the evening
of Friday, the 7th inst. without the Irish-gates.
Carlisle.—As some boys were at play in tl c hat-
rrsanufunory, striving who should perform the mess
daring feats, one of them, about ten years of age,
of the name of Hurvow, son of Wu. Iltirron,
one of the workmen, endeavoured to excel Lis com-
=us, by walking around the rim of a copper,
with boiling water ; but the foot of the too
veseturesome youth slipping, he was precipitated
into the scalding fluid! He however iustantly ex-
