Mr. Coke and several ohm Members took the Oaths of

The SPEAKER said, that a misunderstanding bad
arisen amongst the Agents of the House engaged in the
private business. They had imagined that the business
of last Session was to be re-taker up where it had been
left at the dissolut:ou of the last Parliament ; wb it
was only intended that the parties, to save expense, should
have the benefit of all the evidence previously received.
The misunderstanding, however, had produced such in-
convenience that fresh time was required for the receiv-
ing of private petitions ; the time was afterwards en-
larged from to-morrow till to-morrow week.
Mr. S. WHITBREAD presented a Petition from the
Watermen of the Middlesex side of the Thames, com-

Sir W. CURTIS denied that the Bridge was in the

that inquiry ought to be instituted.
Mr. Alderman WOOD said that he did not expect any
thing effectual from the Hco. Baronet, but he thought
some of the parties who had presented petitions complain-
ing of the state of London Bridge, ought to move for a

The petition was received and ordered to lie on the

OLD BAILEY.
BANK PROSECUTIONS.
gn Friday morning, on the Judges taking their seats in Court,
several persons charged with forging Bank.notes, and uttering
notes knowing than to be forged, were put to the Bar.
Mr. Reynolds. the Counsel for the Bank of England. stated,
that .4 consequence of the prisoners having pleaded guilty to the
minor offence, he shookl not call any evidence upon the capital
charge, of which they were accordingly acquitted.
'rite following then pleaded Not Guilty. generally, and will
take their trials for the capital offence, vii.—Michael Sullivan.
J. W. Stapleton, John Myers, James Marsden, Isaac Smith,
klarriet Treniur, and Sarah Carter.
James Bradfield, a brewer's drayman, was indicted for felo-
niously killing and slaying Will .= Sapwell, on the 15th of
June, to the parish of St. Clement Danes.
It appeared that on the day stated in the indictment, about
four o'elock in the afternoon, there was a temporary stoppage in
the carriage-way, on the western aids of Temple Bar. Amongst
the vehicles thus stopped was a cart driven by the deceased. Win.
Sapwell, which was on its way to the City. This cart stood
outside of the rank that was stopped, but there was plenty of
room for the drays to have passed without coming in contact, and
the first did pass clear. The prisoner was the drives of the second
dray, but instead of being by the side of his horses, he was
riding on the tine horse, whistling very carelessly, and driving at
a smartish pace. The deceased perceiving his cart in danger,
called out to the prisoner to stop, or keep nearer the paveme.it ;
but he paid no attention to the call, and d roceeded un until the
wheel of the they came in contact with the cart and overturned
it. The deceased was thrown out under the cart, and the call thr
the prisoner to stop was renewed, but he went on till he was
stopped by force, The deceased meanwhile was taken to a Sur-
geon's shop, and finally to BartilMouiew's Hospita+, where he
died on the Monday following of the hurts he received in the fall.
'The Jury found the prisoner guilty.
John Bates was put to the bar on 4 charge of maliciously setting
fire to his own dwelling house, with intent is defraud the Sim
Fire Office, when
Mr. Alley applied to the Court to allow the trial to be postponed
on account of the absence of material witnesses.

The. Court consented to the postponement, and ordered
that the tinal of the puroner should cove on hest at the next
Sessions.

Samuel Renton was' indicted under the " Black Act," for
malicioudy cutting and stabbing a gelding, the property of
Cole, Esq. valued 1031.
By the gtct of l'ailiament mentioned, it is necessary, in order
to establish the charge iu this indictment, that the person ac•
cured should be primed to have been ovulated by malice towards
the owner of the uninial.
In this case it appeared that the prisoner had not even a per-
sonal knowledge of the prosecutor, and the Jury therefore,
under the direction of Mr. Justice Burrough, acquitted the
prisoner.

The battalion was 'Aimed in IBoti. He is about
1;7 centimetres high ; his hair white, eyebrows the

and face of an oval form. The search which was
made in his lodgings has led to no discovery. When
first taken to prison, he only had the usual abow.

consisting of meat and soup ; he drinks no wine.
He seems offended when his interrogators insist on

with persons who might have been tempted to be-

with disdain of Racallbw, whom he considers as

Jay keeping him on a low diet, he imagines that it
is intended to entiteble his organs. He complains,
as of a torture, of the woublesome precautions that
are adopted to secure him from destroying himself.
Ile is surprised that a razor to shave hindelf with
should be refused him, and speaks of suicide us a

is composed of firmness without deception, of an
attentive politeness far beyond the class of persons

MARGATE, OCT. A;.—The meeting to address the-
Queen la%t week was followed by a requisition on Mon-
day, calling upon the inhabitants of Margate to meet at
the Townhall oil this day, to vote an address to the King
expressive of a determination to support the constitution
of the realm against the evil designs and wicked p.ajects
of all who may attempt to destroy it.
The publication of this aequisition, reflecting indirectly

SUNDAY, OCTOBER e 9.

The Monikur contains a decree, statidg that some
of the young soldiers called into active service in
pursuance of the law of 1818 for the recruiting of
the army, have voluntarily mutilated themselves to
avoid military service. It enacts, therefore, that all
such persons so misconducting themselves shall be
enrolled in one of the companies of pioneers. In
Naples the government are on the alert to resist any
foreign attempt that may be made against the inde-
pendence of the country. An army has been
already assembled, consisting of troops of the line
and militia to the amount of two hundred thousand
men. M. Coulana D'Ornano, a judge of the civil
tribunal of Ajaccio, in Corsica, was assassinated
when returning from Bastin, where he had been in-
quiring into a case of double assassination. He was

at the time escorted by four Bens (Paroles, and ac-
companied by two officers of his court. He was
struck by two balls. and died in half an hour. He
is the third magistrate that has been assassinated at
Ajaccio; his assassins nre not taken. The Hanover
Gazelle has undertaken the defence of the late
Baron Omptcda. It has not, however, yet attempted
th defence of Majocci, Sacchi, and their friends in
Cotton Garden.—According to letters from Paris,
the French Government have it in contemplation to
send an expedition to Madagemar, to found a colony
in that island. Two sons of one of the Madagascar
chiefs, who have been educated in France, are to
return with the expedition.

The extreme length of the proceedings against
the Queen obliges us to omit almost every other

cidedly the opinion entertained on the Continent
upon the subject, that we cannot resist the pleasure

Never, and therefore, they could no er bring a charge of
high treason, or even an impeachment. The Bill of

[From the Government Gazelle of Lisbon.]

" Aftcr these two great events (the great revo-
lutions in Spain and Naples), another occurred,
which certainly was not to be expected in civilized
times, if civilization went hand-in-hand with morn-,
lity. We mean the trial actually commenced against
the Queen of England, accused of the crime of
adultery in the face of the nation, and of the world,
before the British Parliament, by her own husband,
for the purpose of obtaining a divorce. The decency
which characterizes the Portuguese nation tini,ids
us to stain our pages and pollute the ears of our
readers with the scandalous charges :Immolated
against the Queen in this accusation. No English-
man of chateacr has seen without shame and indig-
nation the disgrace which this trial has cast upon
British Government, the result of which, whatever
it may be, can produce nu benefit to the nation, and
cannot fail to impress a brand of import:ll infamy
on the history of our times. We shall therefilre
continue to say little on this trial, and shall wait
for its issue to deliver our sentiments, By the last
accounts from London, which reach to August 30th,
we find that witnesses were under examination on
the part of the prosecutor, and that their depositions
were taken in open Parliament, to which the
Queen went daily. It is fully anticipated that her
Majesty will refute all the charges, and justify the
testimonies of love and regard which she has received
from the nation.
