PREROGATIVE.

Viscount SIDXOUTH solid, their Lordships would
reeollect the doubt which had originated reopening
the period when His Majesty's consent should be
obtained. if any bill should affect the prerogative of
the Crown. A difference had aloe been drawn be-
tween the proprietary and the prerogative rights of
the King. It seemed, indeed, to have been the re-
ceived opinion of Noble Lord% yesterday, that the
royal consent was not nece.a try to be given pre-
vious to the motion for the steoed reading. How-
ever, such was his doubt still on the subject, that
he gave notice, if ever a bill affecting the preroga-
tive should come before them again, be would
move, in the tirst instance, for a Committee to
examine precedents, in order that every doubt
should he removed.

be thought proper to make last See-ion of Pirlia•

tisfied with the accuracy of that return; and, there-
fore, he should now more for an account of the
number of snch persons. licensed from the year
17C0 to the year 1808; which return might be made
from the registry of each diocese; and also a mare
dtcurete one might he merle from the ,carter eee—
'ions for the lame period. It was his intention to
bring this subject under the attrition of the House,
in the cruse of the »elution, tudt-sir it should be
taken up by some Noble Lord of more considera-
tion ; at the same time, whatever conduct he pur-
sued, it would be recollected he was the real friend
of toleration.

WEDNESDAY. JULY 4.

Unfortunately for the gay company assembled in
this city, the day has turned out very wet and rainy.

&mumble way, gathering fresh vapours iu the
night, began the deluge, which has continued. with

the lidversity Bu,iness, however, for Wednesday.
being of less interest than on either the preceding
Tuesday, or the following days, our disappointment
has not yet been so severely felt as it would be, were
the weather to continue in its present unfavourable
state.

A melancholy event marked this inauspicious
morning, and threw a degree of gloom over that
part of the town where at happened. A Mr. Tid.
bolt, a Bachelor of Arts in Balliol College, was
found in Broad-street, about "weer' o'clock, most
dreadfully disfigured, and covered with blood. It
appears that he bad fallen from his room window,
in the upper story of, the College, but io what way
the accident happened cant be accounted for.
The most probable conjecture is, that the uuforta-
nate sufferer had arisen in his sleep, and met with
this shocking calamity. lie was in his shirt, Burl,
from his excelleut character, and serene habits of
life, it is impossible to. impute his melancholy fate
to any desigu on his part to commit the horrid act
of suicide. The disfigured ■nd mutilated body
was immediately taken up sod carried to Dr. Ste-
vens, who gives no hopes of being able to save the
life which yet lingers in the bruised and broken
frame.

Notwithstanding the torrents of rain, a most
splendid assemblage of female rank, beauty and
for took place in St. Mary's Church, to hear
the Strain!' preached by the Rev. Dr. Howley,
Regiui Professor of Divinity, and Canon or Christ's
Church, fur the benefit of the Radcliffe Infirmary.
Long before 1 lo'clock, the hour appointed for the
commencement of the service, the galleries. which
were solely appropriated for the use of ladies, were
crowded to on overdow, and a number of tine fe-
males occupied seats in the body of the church.
The other parts were thronged wait genteel coin-
parry to the very aisles and passages. At half past
ten o'clock tlw Governors aril public officers be-
longing to this humane institution, met et t,•e Rad-
. litre Library, and from thence walked in proces-
sion.in therreomtnoo black rubes. at eleven o'clock,
to the church. which they entered by the south
door, and took their seats in the place appropriated
to them, sit. the Alegre's seats, which are mine-
diately ender the galleries, and opposite to the
organ and pulpit.
In the procession were the Chancellor and

This was an wain' liy which ci.• sought
to recover a co niimsation in claniwg.s from the De-
fendant; for att ass.sult comm teed on the Plaintiff

—lt appeared, that the Plaintiff and Defendant
(both of whom are Gentlein'u of respectiltility en-
gaged in the corn trade, and also Officers of
Volunteer Car dry C01;14, the Defendant lie..
longing to the Surrey Yeomanry Cavalry. avid

word, together on the Corn Exchange, on a
certain day in May at, Motive to a prosecution
commenced by the Defendant against a servant of
the Plaintiff's, bat which the Defendant had
abandoned. The Defendant as.ignecl as his reason
for not persisting in the prosecution. the respect he
felt for the house of bosiness of which the
was a partner; and the Plaintiff, nu the other hand,
alleged, that he had been anxious that the Dffend-
ant should have proceeded. In the course of this
altercation, as the evidence for the Plaintiff went to
thew, the Defendant accused the Plaintiff is es-
' setting a falsehood, and struck hum ou the face,
calling him a mean contemptible fellow; the Plain-
tiff retorted the words on the Defendant, who then
took up a handful of wheat, and threw it its the
, Plaintitrr face.

The evidence fur the Defendant was of a different
nature, and wrist to prove that the °yield;
et least so far as lOtr he was given, came, from the
Plaintiff. The paradigm, men after the words
were first used, called on the Plaintiff to repeat the
insult. if hr held to et ; cautioning punt, if he did
repeat it. that he would chastise him.--The

he considi red the 1/deaden' es being the person
aggrieved.
Lord ELIANIBOROUGH left the circumstances of
aggravation, Of of alleviation, to be considered of
by the Jury.—That an assault had been committed,
so that some damages must be given was not drhie.l.
The queshun for the consideration of the Jury was,
did the charge of ',astound originate on the part of
the Defendantior oiling Plaintiff? according to their
belief of the one or the other, they would give tog-
gravated or mitigated diunages.—Verdict fur the

The fine weather last week octosMned one of the
largeit assemblages of holiday-folks at Pete:llls
rough Fair, on Tuesday and Wednesday, ever .
known. The town 'was literally trammed with
puny. The Stock Fair was also large,hot pt ices were
kept up. Prime dairies of cheese sold at nos.. to 8.35.
and inferior at 775. per twt. Oinoits,3s. GIL to 4s.
6d. a bushel.
Bridgwater Fair, on Tuesday, was more nuttier-
°sully attended, and there was it larger supply of the
chief articles of dealing, than has hero perhaps ever
known. Cheese, for the purchase of which this Fair
is resorted to from all parts of the West of England,
experienced a considerable reduction in price, and
more than 200 tons are supposed to have ratuained
unsold. Prime Old Dairy, fetched bOs. per cwt.
and best new Cherer from 704. to 7.35. Of Horses
there was a sitrpri-cooly large show; but inferior
ones had few buyers, even at very low prices ; those
of o better description were also considerably on the
decline io value. For Fat Stock there was a toler-
able demand ; but Lean Beasts had at vent
indiffe-
rent sale, and a great number remained unsold. •
