MONDAY, NOVIDEBILD 2i,
Nothing of interest occurred except to the parties
cobeenia.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Wervissisese,
Siosoisv, NOTIIHOBIA 26.
LIBEL.
THE KING V. THE REV. RICHARD DLACOW.
iv this case the Defendant had been convicted of
■ libel on her late 'Majesty. The libel was coo-
tained in a sermon preached on the 26th Novem-
ber, 1820, in the church of St. Mark'., Liverpool,
and was afterwards printed and published by the
Defendant. It will be recollected by our readers
that the libel way of a very gross description, and
charged the Radicalaand Reformers with having gone
farther than the Jaciibines who paid their adoration
to the Goddess of Reason, whilst the latter had
" elevated the Goddess of Lust on the Pedestal
of Shame," and spoke of her Majesty as compass-
ing see and land with her paramour previous to liar
return to England.
The Defendant being placed on the floor.
Mr. Deleeuw moved for tilt judgment of the
Court'.
Mr. Justice HOLROYD read his IMAa of the
evidence taken at the trial.
No affidavits were put in on either side.
The LORD CHIEF Jurricg then addressed the
Defendant, and told him that if he had any thing
to offer to the Court in mitigation of punishment,
they were ready to hear him.
The Defendant declined offering any observations
to their Lordships.
Mr. Baouctiam said he did not feel it necessary
to 'hitches. many words to the Court on this occa-
sion. They had heard the libel read, and the evi•
deuce by which it was proved, but they had not
heard the defence which wits attempted to be made
at the trial. He would venture to say, there never
was such a mass of foul caltunnious imputations
uttered in a court of 'maser before.
Mr. Justice BAY Lay observed, that that did not
appear now before the Court.
Mr. BROUGHAM said it was for that very reason
he had mentioned it ; and if their Lordships had
witnessed it, he thought they would have been of
opinion that a more disgraceful exhibition never
took place in a court of justice. With respect to
the libel itself, he would only •h+erve that it was
delivered from the pulpit, and it was not the first
time that the Defendant had been convicted of a
similar offence.
Mr. Justice BEST said, there was no affidavit of
that fact,

Mr. BROUGHAM apprehended the conviction
itself, being on the records of the Court, war +alb-
cient evidence of that fact. He had an affidavit
that the person let convicted wins the Defendant on
the floor. The Learned Counsel was about to bead
up the affidavit to he read, when
The LORD CHM, JUSTICR said, in point of res
gularits. all offidarits should be read before any
address to the Coast,
Mr. Beouousu said, he did not feel it necessary
to press the point on their Lordships. The affidavit
was accordingly withdrawn.
Mr. BROUGHAM resumed. Their Lordships
knew the character, which he could not say the
Defendant did, but which he ought to support as
a clergyman ; yet that person was one of a oa.
sl.iracy, whose object was to load the character of a
late illustrious personage with the falsest and most
atrocious imputations. The only difference between
the secret conspirators and this Defendant was, aot
that they had greats. malignancy or were less time.
serving, but only in having less decency end pru-
dence than they. He had come forward sod
courted the notoriety attendant on his procedure at
the trial, and continued to court it now whoa al.
tending that fate which awaited him. He (Mr.
Brougham) left him to the judgment of their Lord-
ship., satisfied that it was wholly superfluous to NMI
a syllable to the bare repetition of the abrader. t
A her a deliberation of about a quarter aim hour,
Mr. Justice BAYLEY delivered the sentence of
the Court. His Lordship said it was a most pain-
ful duty to pass the sentence of the Court on a
clergyman of the Church of England, for a libel
printed and published by him, us and for the sub-
stance of a sermon preached by him in St. Mark's
Chapel. He believed this was a rare instance of
so sacred a place !toying been perverted to such 34
purpose. It ought to be with very differeut feel-
ings that every ouc should enter such a place, and the
minds of persons should not be fixed on living cha-
racters. All had faults enough of their own to amend.
without looking to those of their neighbour. This
was a subject calculated to produce feelings which
certainly ought not to be produced in people's
minds at such a place. He (the Defendant) had
exercised a very wise discretion in abstaining front
saving any thing that day. His Lordship hoped
that originated In u conviction mu his mud that his
past conda-t hail been incorrect.
The sentence of the Court was, that the Defen-
dant pay a tine to the King or 1,)0f. and be impri-
soned in the custody of the Murslial of the Mar-
shaken of that Court for six calendar months, and
give security for good beinitiour for tire years,
IJ I aaa self in 51)0/. raid two sureties in 100/. each.
As soon os the sentence was ettssed the Defendant
bowed to the Court and withdrew in custody of the
tipstaff. Hr appeared about 54) or 55 years of age.
The Court was much crowded dutiug the morning.

THE MANCHESTER MEETING.
RADFORD R. GURNEY AND UTHEES.
Mr. BLACKBURN moved for a rule to store cause
why the rule which bud been obtained by the other
side tu this case, for tnoviiog the venue from Mid-
dlesex to Lancashire. should nut be dt•chargrd, on
the ground that au tailwind trial could not be hail

Mowheater yeomanry) on .0: 16th August, 181 Y,
The Plaintiff being wisflr+,trier pessiisis peaceably
rumbled to consider of the best means fur procur-
ing e reform in Parliament. [ln answer to a ques-
tion from the Bench, Mr. Blackburn said the venue
had been originally laid in Middlesex. and was re,
moved to Lancashire on the cuttunlery affidavit
that the cause of action arose in the letter county.
His object was to bri.ig the venue back.]—He found.
ed his application on decided casts, and referred the
Court to --- v. Berkeley, reported to Ceoper,
page 510 ; also the Earl uf Shaf.esbury v. Graham.
In the case of —.-- v. Berkeley, the application
was granted on the affidavit of the Plaintiff's agent,
that his client could not have a fair trial in the
county of Gloucester, where the cause of action
arose.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—'r Your affidavit
goes as far as that ?"
Mr. BLACKBURN said, his affidavit went still
further.
Mr. Justice BEST observed, that the application
of Mr. Blackburn went to fix the venue in one par-
ticolor county.
Mr. BLACKBURN admitted that it was so, but
apprehended that was the privilege of the Plaintiff
in actions like the present.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—." It is e privilege
in the discretion of the Court for the purposes of
justice. You may, however, take the rule in the form
you prey."

DUELLING.
On Saturday evening one of the late heroes of Chalk .1
Farde amid Blackheath applied at the office for the pistols
which had been seized by the officers. It will be recollected I
that when these parties were at Chalk Farm, Bacon, the I
constable, had nearly lust his life when engaged with one of
the gentlemen, by his pistol going off when it was close
to Becon's body, but provideutially Le received no injwy.
On their being disturbed at Calk Fa, in, inforneatiuse we, re-
ceivrel at the office that they were determined to fight the
following euorning, wheu two offices, proceeded to their
residence (both living in the same house),, and seized the

and contended that he bad been illegally wrested, herbs,
bees arrested on a Sunday, contrary to the Statute.
On so inquiry taking place respecting the circisenstancei,
Avery produced a warrant issued by the Lord Mayor against
the Prisoner, the offence being charged to have been ems.
Misted is the City of Landon. The warrant was betted by
*Middlesex Magistrate, and yet we understood that the
constable apprehended the Prisoner in the county of Surrey
on Sunday; and eso completely ignorant was he of the law,
it being illegal to arrest or apprehend fur debt or any
offence on • Sunday, except for felon), according to an Act
of Parliament pursed is the reign of King Charles 11. that

the moat terrific , armed with a cutlass and pistol,
and apprehended the Prisoner, on bin being pointed out by
the Promeutur, or some person representing him.
The crime with which the Prisoner is charged is only a
misdemeanor, and the Prisoner oriel he considered the charge
a mere memeenvre to get him into custody fur the purpose of
arreetiag him for debt, and he had eery little doubt hat
that several writs were out against loos sad he should be
able to pay the whole *mulled of those debts in twelve days,
when he should receive more than sufficient fur tbai purpose
from a Government office for business which he had dune,
and the mosey would be paid as regular as the day came.
Mr. Homphries observed, that when he heard that his
cheat bad bees apprehended sin a Sunday by Avery, front
his long kaowledge of him he hail no doubt loot that he hail

Avery denied to be the case; Mr. Humphrica informed Lim
that an swim would he brought teeniest him and all the

disclaimed all interference in the business; he expressed Ms
surprise at the ignoremee of Avery, and censured the

informed the Prisoner that lie was not to consider hinertlf to
