FR ENC II P. WERS.

PARIS, JULY Q 9 —Yesterday, after dinner, his
Mtesty transacted business with the Duke of Rich-
lieu.
LEMTORN, Jur.y 9.—We learn from the coasts
of Africa that the Algcrines and Tunisians arc
arming to aid ;he Porte against the Greeks.
VIENNA, JULY 7.—Great activity reigns in our
cabinet ' • despatches arrive and couriers are expected
daily. The principal secretaries arc overwhelmed
with increased labours. Although rigorous secrecy
is maintained. and nothing transpires, yet it is pre-
sumed, from the routes the different couriers take,
and the number of estafettcs which arrive from, and
depart for, the frontiers of Turkey, that all these
movements arc connected with the affairs of the
!forte.

It appears certain that the representations trans-
mitted ►.y the Turkish Cabinet to the Court of St.
Pa.tersburgh, respecting Baron de Strogonoft; are
accompanied with a proposition to fix the bases of
a new treaty, which shall consolidate the peace be-
tween Russia and the l'orte. According to ptivate
advices, it was not the Porte that broke off com-
munication with the Baron de Strogonoff, but the
latter, who refused all intercourse and withdrew to
the country. The decision of the Emperor of Rus-
sia is expected with extreme impatience.
JULie 18.—Great activity prevails in our diplo-
matic departments. A special commission composed
of members from the Aulic Council of War, has
been exclusively charged with all the business rela-
tive to the movements of the troops on the frontiers
of Turkey.
The Austrian Observer still maintains silence re•
specting the affairs of Greece. This silence is the
more unwelcome to the feelings of our politicians,
as it is well known that it is only through the chan-
nel of this demi-official paper that they can hope to
receive any certain information about the relations
between the Porte and Russia. _ _ _

Our cordon on the frontiers of Turkey daily re-
ceives inforcements ; but the strictest neutrality
continues to be observed.
FRANKFORT, Jot, 23.—We learn that the Porte
has solicited the mediation of France and Great
Britain. It is also asserted that the Ottoman Mi-
nister has transmitted to the Court of Petcrsburgh
many notes of complaint against the Baron de Stro-
gonoff. The Porte demands the recall of this am-
bassador, whom they accuse of first breaking off the
correspondence.
MADRID, Jour 20.—N0 idea can be formed of
the anxiety of the national subscribers to the new
loan of 300 millions of rag; the officers of the com-
mittee named to receive offers are scarcely able to
meet them. The Minister of Finances having as-
sembled at his house the principal merchants of the
city to consult and to come to an understanding
with them, fifty-four assembled according to the in-
vitation, and all immediately subscribed considerable
tsllo3B. The bank of San Carlos alone took 1,500
shares of 750 francs each, reserving the power of
taking others immediately. The loss will be filled
up in less than six weeks. These miracles of credit
mark the new eta.
AuGaautte, JULY 23.—1 t is affirmed by a prig
vete letter from the Ottoman Porte has scot an
agent, charged with a mission of the highest im-
portance, to the Scah of West Persia. On the other
hand, it is also said that the Court of Pctersburgh
has also entered upon negotiations with the Eastern
Monarch. _ _ _

The intelligence that a corps of the Russian army
has entered Moldavia is not yet confirmed. All the
reports respecting the Russian forces have been sin-
gularly contradictory of each other during some
days past; however, it cannot be long ere the de-
cision of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh be known.
Ilallowt, Jusx 18.—Our Chambers are pro
rogued until winter. A deficiency in the revenue
is talked of, as also a personal contribution; thus a
tax upon industry will be adopted to cover this de-
ficiency. The debates have been very stormy in the
Lower Chamber, and the majority of the deputies
have strongly protested against any exception in
future in regard to taxation.
The Gazelleof Lausanne of July 20 contains the
following article :—" A very recent letter from
Trieste informs us of a declaration of war proclaim-
ed by the Russians against the Porte, and of the
march of all the corps of the Russian army towards
the frontiers. That declaration is founded on the
multiplied outrages experienced by the Russian
agents, the infraction of existinn, treaties between
the two Powers, and the refusal of the Divan to
satisfy the claims frequently made upon it. If this
intelligence is confirmed, it will be productive of
immense results."

On Monday his Royal Highness the Duke of
Cambridge and suite left town fur Dover, where
they will embark fur Calais. His Royal Highness,
will join the Princess Augusta at Brussels, when
they will proceed on their way to Hanover.

NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE.

The following is an extract of a letter from a
tradesman of respectability at St. lieletti, employed
upon the funeral of Huonaparte. !t is dated.

"St. Helena, May 40, 1821."
" Yon will of course have heard of Iluonaparte's dissoln-
ion, but pet haps a few facts from an eye•Vl 'less respect-
ing that important event miry not be deemed tedious. 800.
naparie hail been sick at intervals ever since I have been
on the island, but never considered dangerously so by the
faculty. until ahont two moths back, when he evidently
began to decline, and of course every possible attention
was pliid to him, but without effect; he died on the sth
instant, Saturday evening, at bah-past five o'clock. After
this he was dressed in full uniform, with cocked hat, boots
and spurs, and laid out in state.
"'flue same morning I received orders for the coffins for
the Mimi-ions deceased, which were of course executed
with all possible dispatch. Tiie shell wai made of (RIC_
inch mature: my, lined with tin and covered with lead oat-
side. The tin Wa, istlvrwarde covered with white satin;
pillow :end mattress of the sante. The outside coffin was
made of Spanish mahogany, the top and sides tine solid
curls; and I dovetailed it together and polished it with
illy own 11411dd ill the highest possible manner that my
poor abilities world allow of. There was no inscription
whatever on the coffin.

" On Wednesday morning I rode up to Longwood, and
inclosed the body in the coffins, with silver•head screws.
Inclosed with bini in the coffin were a silver urn content-
big his heart, and another containing his stomach, and all
the coins that were issued daring his reign ; together with
a knife and fork, a spoon, and one plate, all of silver. I
saw his heart before it was soldered up in the urn, which
was permitted to me as a great favour.
"The pall at the fneertil was of purple velvet, on whirls
was placed the cloak or mantle and sword, which 8110114.
parte wore at the battle of Waterloo, and on the head of
the coffin a cushion and crucifix.—The coffin was placed
on a heat se drawn by four of his own carriage horses, and
the procession (which the writer describes in nearly the
same manner as stated in former accounts) moved towards
the place of hutelment which was his own choice.
"Soon alter he went to Longwood to reside, he corn.
plaiued of the badness of the water, and at that time Ma-
dame Bertrand lived at Hutt's Gate, about one mile from
Longwood, at the top of a very pretty fertile valley,
known here by the name of Sampler Vale. Buonaparte
frequently visited Madame Bertrand, and observed how
very superior the water which he drank there was to that
wiiii7ll lie got at Longwood ; soil, on being informed that
it was procured from a spring down the vale, he express-
ed a wish to walk and see the well. lie went there with
Madame Bertrand, and after examining the water, he
noticed a willow tree gto‘sing about lea yards from the
well. Viewing it in silence for a few seconds, he said,
' Should I die on this island, I would wish to be buried un-
der that tree; and I will drink no water but front this
apt When he returned home lie furnished one of his
servants, a Chinese, with two silver bottles, holdi:sg about
a gallon each, and sent him Immediately to the spring fur
water—and the same Chinese has had no other employ-
ment than fetching water for the last five years.
" The land where the corpse of this extraordinary man
is deposited, belongs to Mr. Torbet, a very respectable
shopkeeper I/1 James Town, It is now called • Napoleon's
Vale.' and is very mach frequented by the inhabitants.
The grave was lined with stone, and covered with a plain
slab of the same material.

IRSL AND.
--rws
A meeting of gentlemen was held on the 27th inst. at
the Royal Exchange, in pursuance of a requisition to the
Lord Mayor, for the purpose of appointing a Committee
OT Stewards to make the necessary arrangements for the
intended dinner, which is to take place in celebration of
his Majesty's coronation.
At tutu o'clock the Lord Mayor took the chair.
William I)igges Latouche, Esq. read the Lord Mayor's
a Ivertisement, calling the present meeting; and moved,
that a committee should be named, to make the neces-
sary arrangements for the approaching festival.
Previous to the question having been put from the
chair,
Mr. O'Connell addressed the meeting, and strongly
recommended an adjournment for a few days, for the
sole purpose of a more aeneral and cordial unanimity.—
Mr. fiConnell•concluded by moving, as an amendment,
"That impressed with profinind gratitude to our august
Sovereign, fur his most gracious recommendation to all
his subjects to cultivate harmony and mutual good will,
we do respectfully. and dutifully determine to carry such
his Majesty's gracious intentions into effect, and to testify
in tine best manner in our power the universal sentiment
of allegiance and attachment to Isis Majesty's person and
throne. That in order more effectually to carry such our
determination into execut on, this meeting be adjourned
till Monday, the 30th inst. in order to devise the mode of
conducting, and to procure and appoint stewards, to con-
duct a public dinner, in honour of the auspicious evetit
of his Majesty's coronation, in such a manner as may
enable all classes, not only to combine in a present ex-
pres,ion of loyalty to our Sovereign, but to lay a solid
foundation l'or future concord and harmony amongst
all persuasions."
Mr. Shiel, after some pointed allusions to the circum-
stances which took place on the very day after the first
offer of conciliation, seconded Mr. O'Connell's amend-
ment.

The Lord Mayor observed, that nothing ever gave him
more or deeper regret than the circumstances wnich oc-
curred on the 12th of July. He begged to assure the
meeting that he did all thu man could do to prevent
what had occurred ; he felt it his duty to do so, and he
only regretted that lie had failed in accomplishing that
objeci. These remarks of his lordship were received
with loud plaudits. The amendment was then pot front
the chair. and carried una • ously. The meeting then
adjourned.

Wiliam Thompson, Esq. was unanimously elected
Alderman of the Ward of Cheap on Thursday last,
in the room of the late Alderman Huthw•ell.

NIS MAJESTY'S' JOURNEY TO IRELAND.

On Tuesday morning last, at half past eleven o'clock, his Ma-
jesty left his palsce in Pall-mall 011111 s way to Ireland.
PORTSMOUTH, JUL: 31.—His Majesty arrived here this
afternoon, at half past five in his travelling es riage, accompanied
by Lord Cream:, and Mr. Wat-on his Majesty's private secre•
tary, escorted by a party of the loth Hussars; every prepara-
tion had been previously made to receive his Majesty in this
garrison with all the parade ossible; the streets were lined with
troops, and the naval and military officers in their dress uniforms
and regimentals waited his arrival. On his reaching die outer
barrier, a salute was fired front the bastions, and Lieutenant
General Sir George Cooke, K.C.B. attended by all his staff, pre-
sented the keys of the garrison. which were graciously accepe.d
and returned. His Majesty rode slowly down the streets to the
water side, through the lines of soldiers, who presented amts ;
on his reaching tine point of embarkation, he alighted, and was
received by Admiral Sir J. Hawkins Whitshed, K.C.B. and the
Captains of the squadron ; the lion. Sir C. Puget handed his
Majesty into the royal barge, and on the standard being hoisted
the squadron fired a royal salute as well as the 'platform ; in u
few minutes he reached the Royal George yacht, which had, for
his better convenience, been brought into the harbour. On the
yacht's hoisting the standard, a second salute was fired by the
squadron, and the captains commanding ships in the port were
severally presented, and his Majesty then retired to dress for
cinner. At half pest eight o'clock the King sat down to dinner
on board the Raya/Geoegs, at which Lord Graves, Sir Hilgrove
Turner, Sir Etimund Nagle, Colonel Thornton. and Sir Charles
Paget had the honour to be present. The fiwihty of reaching
the yacht, from the circumstance of her being moored so near
the shore, offered an inducement to many who were anxious to
obtain a sight of the King, of which great numbers availed
themselves. Soon after his Majesty arrived on board, u number
of boats, in which were rich dtessed females, repaired to the
yacht, and continued around her until ten o'clock. During his
Majesty's dinner, the individuals in the boats were afforded an
opportunity of being gratified by a sight of their Sovereign
through the windows of the cabin, and after dinner, at intervals,
with that gracious condescension which distinguishes him, the
King showed himself on the deck, and acknowledged by bowing,
to those around, the enthusiastic greetings which awaited him at
each appearance. His Majesty quitted the deck, and retired to
twit at ten o'clock.

PORTSMOUTH, A co. I.—This morning the yacht got under
weigh, and proceeded out of the harbour at halt' pa ft eight
o'clock. In her progress to Spithead she was saluted by the
guns of the Platform flattery and Fort Moncton, and by the
ships in the harbour, and at Spithead, decorated in their colours
and with the yards manned. As soon as the Royal Ocorge
pieced through Spithead, the si!-tial was given fsr the squadron
appointed to attend the King to follow, when the whole got under
weigh at the same time, and proeeeded with the yacht to Cowes.
It is understood the King will anchor at Cowes this evening, and
if the wind be favourable, will proceed to-morrow morning for
Ireland. Our naval and military Confounders in Chief dim•
with the King at Cowes today. The King will return here hum
Ireland.

Wise COWES, Auo. Majesty arrived here last
night, about half past six, and dined on board his yacht. A
large party dined with hi; Majtzty. This morning, at half past
two, the signal was made, and the royal squadion got under
weigh fiir Ireland. It was accompanied by an immense number
of yachts. The whole was soon out of sight, Lord Craven's
yacht. the Louisa, is the only yacht remaining here. His Lord.
,tap dined on board the royal yacht.

ENCHIRIDION;
OR, A HAND FOR THE ONE-HANDED.

" Magistcr artis ingenique largitor venter."
" It has bet n justly observed that the teal worth of any thing
is seldom known to the party ssho may be in actual possession
of it. • • • • •
" Those who have the natural use of both their hands never
pause amidst the various avocations of the day to reflect with
gratitude on the services they derive from those members, by
which man has so decided au advantage over the brute creation ;
but the moment that disease or accident may tender one hand
useless, the individual who sustains the lost, is made sensible, in
a thousand painful instances of daily and inevitable occurrence,
of the full use he had for two."

The above are extracts from the most ingenious
little work we have seen for a long time, containing
engravings of an entire apparatus to render indepen-
dent of a constant attendant any gentleman who
may have been deprived, by war or paralysis, of a
hand. The accompanying directions are simple in
the extreme, and the instruments themselves (with
a sight of which we have been favoured) precisely
accord with the directions for using them. NVe are
confident that every one who has had the misfortune
to lose a hand will feel highly indebted to the in-
ventor (Capt. G. W. De Renzy, who lost his right
arm from the socket at the battle of Vittoria), for
promulgating for the general benefit, inventions
ginating in his own individual necessities. By :iis
ingenious instruments lie is enabled, unassisted, to
strop his razor, wash his hand, pare and clean his
nails, cut his meat, cat an egg, play a rubber at
whist, and in short to supersede the heretofore con-
stant necessity of a man so situated of either being a
continual trouble to some one in a party, or of having
always a valet present to supply the defect under
which he laboured.

THE DUKE IYENGiII/.l4l.—(From a I'aris paper.)
Louis XVIII. learned at the same moment the
ash of the Duke d'Enghien and that the Order of
the Golden Fleece had been conferred upon Buena-
pane. His Majesty instantly returned his decors.
tion of the Order, the investure of which he had
received, being a Frotch Prince, to Charter IV.,
with the following letter:—
" Sire, Sir, and dear Conine—lt is with egret that I return
youthe insignia of the order of the Gulden I. ince, which his
Majesty your father, of glorious memory, confided to mei there
can exist nothing in common between me and the great criminal
whom audacity 41111 fortune have placed upon my throne, which
he lias had the barbarity to stain with the pun: blood of a liour•
bon, the Duke d'knglnen-
" Religion teaches ice to pardon an assassin; but the tyrant of
Dv subjects ought always to be my enemy.
" Providence from inscrutable mouses, any ordain thnt
"'lend nay days in exile; but neither my contemporariet nor
posterity 0,411 ever, even to my la t breath, tay, Ow so the lowa
of adversity I showed myself unworthy ut oteupyir g the lltrine

THE NATIONAL. ItEGISTER.

ACT or GnAcr.—The following is a copy of a
letter to the several revenue boards inEngl and'
Ireland, and Scotland :

Treasury Chambers, eGth Julyca2l.
GENTLEMEN.-1 ant commanded by the Lords ommis-
sinners of his Majesty's Treasury, to acquaint you that, in con•
sequence of his Majesty 'a Coronation, my I.orils are pleased to
sanction the release of all prisoners confined fin penalties fur
of the laws of the revenue under your management, who may
have been confined for any period exixedingsix months; and I ion
to desire that you will forthwith take the necessary measures for
that purpose, unless there should be any special case of impro-
per conduct in jail, or of very dagrant character, when my Lords
desire the same may be submitted for their consideration and
directions.
" My Lords are also pleased to extend this Act of Grace,
under the same exceptions,to all pr;soners who have not yet been
in confinement six months, when they shall have completed
this term of imprisonmantt and they desire, that instructions be
given in their smeral case., so that they may be released on the
day on which the six months shall expire.
" I am further to acraint you, that my Lords arc in like
manner pleased to sanction the release Mall prisoners confined for
debts, due to the revenne under your management, less in amount
than tool. who have been confined, or when they shall have been
confined, three months; and they are pleased to authorise you to
discharge the books of your department front the amount due
from such persons, and desire you will take measures accordingly,
unless there should be special circunts,ances attending any pain •
whir ease, as before-mentioned, when my Lords &situ: you will
lose no time in submitting the same for further directions.
" I sin, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,
(Signed) S. It. LUSIIINUTON."

The following tragi-comic paragraph appears in a
Paris paper of Sunday ,—" On Thursday some
boatmen took a man out of the Seine, who had
' thrown himself from the Punt-au-Change. On con-
ve3 ing him to the Corps de Garde, they succeeded
in recovering him. He was no sooner restored than
he assured the Commissary of Police very seriously,
that us soon as he was free be should take the first
opportunity of drowning himself. The Commissary
proposed to him to sign a declaration of his intention
to destroy himself,' and to which the man readily
agreed. At this juncture a female arrived, loudly
screaming 3ly husband, I will ace my husband.—
When, however, she found him alive, she was im-
mediately silent. The boatmen approached her,
to ask fOr some reward for having saved her husband,
when she angrily repulsed them by saying, Why did
not you let him drown himself? What business had
you to meddle with hint V—These words had the
aka of curing the husband of his folly, and he
swore that he would not again attempt to drown
himself."

AEROSTATION.—Mr. Green, the person who went
up with the balloon on the day of his Majesty's co-
ronation, ascended again on Wednesday last from
the ground adjoining the Belvidere-tavern, Penton-
vile, soon afier three o'clock. It was put forth in
an advertisement, that he would commence inflating
the balloon at eleven o'clock, which occasioned au
immense number of persons to assemble at un early
hour, who began to grow very impatient towards
two o'clock. file neighbourhood became for some
time alarmed, in consequence of the outrages of the
mob about two years ago at the same place, when a
disappointment occurred in consequence of a balloon
belonging to another person not having ascended
pursuant to promise. On the present occasion,
however, the aeronaut ascended with much effect,
and was equally successful as when he ascended
from the Green Park, The balloon rose majestically
to the height of about seven hundred feet, when
Mr. Green ihrew out some ballast, and it rose con-
siderably, taking an easterly direction, and having
seemingly met with another current of air, it moved
with much velocity. It was distinctly seen from
Woolwich and Greenwich, and after u voyage o
about a quarter of an hour the aeronaut descended
in perfect safety at Barking in Essex, and returned
in a post chaise early enough to preside at a supper
given the same evening at the Belvidere tavern.

WASHINUTON'S MoN tiscNT.--TheUnited States'
sloop Peacock sailed from Civita Vecchia April 13,
whither she was sent by Commodore Bainbridge, to
receive from Rome the Monument to Washington,
for the State of North Carolina; it was brought in

LOVE AND Jr.aLousy. —The Glnette de I rone
contains an account of one of those acts of dispensa-
tion to which the leader pa•a;on, as it is called,
sometimes excites the weak heads and ill-regulated
feelings of certain of its votaries. A young man,
about 21 years of age, who cultivated a considerable
farm in the arrondissement of Aix, being despe-
rately in love with a young lady of that town, de-
manded her hand in marriage, but met with a
rofusal Determined, it seems, not to abandon his
pursuit, he visited Aix on the 21st ult. and unfor-
tunately encountered the object of his passion walk-
ing with his successful rival. This raised the fury
of the rejected suitor to the highest pitch, and the
next morning he repaired to the street in which the
house his mistress inhabited was situated, and at
the curly hour of seven succeeded in gaining admit-
tance. Having ascended to the second fluor, he
there found the grandmother of the young lady,
who begged . hint to retire. He replied, that be
knew her granddaughter was about to be married.
but that she should first perish by his hand, as well
as her brother and his own. The madman then
violently repulsed the old lady, who received a
wound on the eye front the pummel of the pistol
which he held in his hand; and having caught sight
of his mistress in her chamber, he fired at her, front
a very short distance, a pistol loaded with slugs, by
which happily, she was only slightly wounded on
the right arm and shoulder. At the same time he
shot himself under the jaw with a second pistol,
also loaded with slugs, which shatte-ed the lower
part of his Else. It remained uncertain whether
his wound was mortal. He was speechless, but was
able to describe with difficulty sonic half firmed
but legible characters. He stated that it was for
himself' only he intended the two pistols. Hues.
pressed his desire to make his will, and be indulged
with the succours of religion. May he have pro-
fited by them, whatever has been his fate !

Perseverance Illusgraled.—king Robert Bruce,
the Restorer of the Scottish Alonarchy, being out
one day reconnoitering the enemy, lay at night in
a barn belonging to a loyal cottager. In the morn-
ing, still reeltiang his head on the pillow of straw,
he beheld a spider climbing up a beam in the roof.
The insect fell to the ground, but immediately made
a second essay to ascend. This attracted the notice
of the hero, who, with regret, saw the spider fall
a second time from the same eminence. It made a
third unsuccessful attempt. Not without a mixture
of concern and curiosity, the Monate!' twelve times
beheld the insect bullied in its aim ; but the thir-
teenth essay was crowned with success; it gained
the summit of the barn, when the King, starting
from his couch, exclaimed, " this despicable insect
has taught me perseverance; I will follow its ex-
ample. Have I not been twelves defeated by the
enemy's superior force? On one fight more hangs
the independence of my country." In a few days
his anticipations were fully realized, by the glorious
result to Scotland of the battle of Bannockburn.

STRERT PREACHING.— A singular trial took
place on the .'2311 ult. at the Salford Sessions, before
a bench of Lancashire magistrates, the Rev. Mr.
Hay, the well-known Vicar of Rochdale, being
chairman. The facts of' the case appear to be these:
—Mr. Waller, a•pteacher of a sect of dissenters.
chose to preach from the steps of a house in the
street of Ashton, by which, of course, a crowd of
hearers was collected in the street. On account of
the crowd so collected, he was indicted for a mis-
demeanour.
The indictment charged, that lie, the said Samuel Waller, on
or about the 17th of dime last, in a certain public street and
Kirvos highway, in the parish of Ashtun.under-Lyne, did un.
lawfully and injuriously cause and procure u great number of
persons to the number of goo or more, to assemble together, and
did, for a long time, obstruct the said pub, ie street, to the great
damage and common nuisance of the liege subjects of our Lind
the King, unit against Me peace, disc. The second count charges
defendant, with divers other persons, with making a great noise.
riot tumult, and disturbanee. The third count cli3iged the like
riot, Sm. tube by shouting and singing, and wholly cll.:iking rah
anu obstructing the street and highway.
On the first count of this indictment Mr Waller
was found guilty, and sentenced to three mouths'
imprisonment in the house of correction! ! ! The
first two nights after his conviction, Mr. Waller was
put into a double bedded cell, with two convicted
misdemeanants, who (wu mention it to their ho-
nour) voluntarily slept together, that lie might
have a bed to himself. On Wednesday, thmugh.
the interposition of some of his friends, Mr. Waller's
situation was ameliorated ; but on Friday afternoon
he canti:tued ill in bed, from anxiety and suffering
caused by his previous confinement.

SELECTION OF SPECIAL JURORS.

" If selection be packing," said one of the Judges of
the King's Bench (when a new trial was moved for on
/account of the Jury hai in.: as was asserted been unfairly
taken.) "1 the Master of inc Crown Office has right to
pack," and 31 long as that right be recognized, we con-
tend that a fair and constitutional " Trial by Jury" can-
not he looked for—the foliowing Report throws cowl-
derable light on the present principle, and by it. it ap-
pears that important refornii are necessary—on the pre-
srut an administration has interfered to obtain a
packed Jury—that they did not succeed was owing to
the existence of more honesty on the part of the Master

Report of the special committee appointed to examine
the books and lists of persons qualified to serve on juries
in and for the city of London.

To tile Lund Mayor, Aldermen, and Commonalty of the
City of Loudon, iu Contusion Council assembled.

We whose names are hereunto subscribed, your special
committee, to whom, on the 17th day of July, It. IT,
it was referred to esatuine the Books and Lists of
Persons qualified to serve on Juries in and fur the
City of London, and to report thereon—
__

Do certify, That in pursuance of the above reference,
wr felt it our duty minutely to inquire into the composi-
tion book from which Special Juries have been
cluck. as also carefully to investipte the mode in which
it has been constituted. the principles of the law upon
which it was founded, together with the manner in which
the Master in the Crown-ollice, and the Muster on the
Pled side on the Court of King's Bench have proceeded
to nominate juries therefrom, in causes connected with
the Government of the country, and those to which the
Clown has been.% party :

hat, in order to facilitate their inquiries, your com-
mit tee requested the attendance of one of the Secondaries
of this city, Samuel Collieuridge, Esquire, who produced
to acid left with your committee such of the several lists
of special juries as were in his possession, which bad
been rrtui lied to his office fur the purpose of causing the
se%eral jurors, therein mentioned, to be summoned to try
the issues joined in the Court of King's Bench and Com-
mon Pleas, a hick were to be heard and (fetes mined at the
sittings after the several terms of Hilary, Easter, and
Trinity, last past.
That it appeal, to your committee, from the best in-
foimation they have been enabled to obtain, that the
piaLtieu of nominating special juries from a book con-
taining a limited number of names, has existed fur many
year', unsancliened, how( ver, by any statute or pre-
scriptive custom.

It further appears, that the said book has been con-
sti ncted according to the discretion or caprice of the
acting secondary for the lime ill inf.!, who had theretofore
claimed and exercised the right of placing upon and re-
proving from the said list such names as lie thought pro.
per, professing to be regulated by the remit 1111 l endation
or other special jurymen, of some attorneys, and of the
sheriffs t which recommendation, however, he considered
himself authorised to follow, or to dispense with at plea-
sure. And your committee is apprehensive, from the
evidence brought before them, that lids power has been
sometimes used fur the gratification of prejudices, and
not always with that impartiality which ought to charac-
terize the administration of a public functionary.
That your committee have carefully examined the said
special jury hook, and for the purpose of better ac-
quainting themselves a ith the qualifil ations, as jurors, of
the several m rsons whose names appeared therein, di-
remelt Mr. Town Clerk to send lists of such names to the
deputies of the Common Council of the several wards,
requesting them to male inquiries as to the residence and
profession of the several 'sessions stated to re e therein;
mid having received reborn., front the with r com-
mittee now sielnuit the result of the information afforded
II such returns, and their inquiries respecting the same ;
to which they particularly beg to draw the attention of
your honourable court. Although it is obvious, that
within the city of London there must he an immense
number of persons who are eligible to serve on special
juries, you. honourable court wiil be no less surprised
than your co 11111 l ill re were, to find that the said book con-
tains ouly Obi names, from whom all the jurors are se-
lected.

That out of that number there are no leas than 226 who
are uot householders %lade ,the city of London, and of
• souse disqualified to serve.
That the remaining 260 are the whole of the household-
ers whose names are in the said book.
That out of this number or lionseltulders there are of
those, hi the modern acceptation of the term, mer-
chants. tsB

Your committee bas been thus been particular in stat-
ing the residence and prole,•sion of the parties, whose
statues are tlins plated on the special jury hook, or list so
called, not fur the purpose of proving that the accidental
distinction between merchants and tradesmen can at all
■elect the illegibility of the patties, but to show that the
practice of a special jury being comprised exclusively of
merchants, which has been the alleged plea for the past
practice, is as unfounded in fact as it a utterly amp-
ported by any principle of law.
That during the siitines after the terms before alluded to,
it appear% that by Mr. Colliopides sentry's, that the jurors
for the trial of 114 douses were summoned, sin operation
uteuptea part of 33 d.tyi ; and that during dust period,

That is appears by the evidence adduced to your commit-
tee, that the mater of the Cmnn el Office, and the person
officiating as Master on the Plea Side of the Court of King's
Welch, have availed themselves of the limited exteut of the
Special Jury Book, and of the circumstance of its having
tiecu out of the custody of the Sheriff, and held in the hands
or the officers of the Court for weeks together, twt as to /lc.
qoaint themselves with its C0111(.1116. ❑s may have etothieti
them to make a selection deo ructive of the purity of" Trial
by Jur)," and highly injurious to time personal liberty of the
subject.
That your committee hissing understood from one of the
clerks of the secondarie,, that solo, important information
might he obtained from a Mr. I). Walker, then and fur ninny
years previously, a clerk imi the Seeondary's Office, and who
was confined by illness so his room, and is now 110 snore, di-
rected one of its Menthe"; to wait upon' lino. and take a pro-
rely authenticated report of his dying testimony.; by which
. .

it alyears that application bind been ini.ile by the solicitor
of the Treasury to know the political sentiments of a jury
appointed to try a cause to u hick the Crown was a party ;
that Mr. Collingridge being then from home, the messenger
disclosed to the said Mr. Walker the object of his mission ;
and in consequence of this information, your committee
again examined Mr. Collingridge, who although he had pre-
viously denied all knowledge of such or any other commu-
nication from the solicitor to the Treasury, or any person on
his behalf, was compelled to admit that he had received a
letter or letters from the said solicitor to the Treasury, re-
lative to some jury appointed to try an issue jollied between
the Crown and an individual for libel: he could not, how-
ever inform your committee the date of such application, the
particular case, Or jury, to which it alluded, 'tor the subject
to which it referred; your committee therefore, from the
circumstance of the said letter having been destroyed, added
to the defective memory of a responsible officer of your Ho.
nottrah!e Court, is unable to disclose the contents of a docu-
ment, as appears to your committee, alike reprehensible and
important. . . .

butt )our committee have examined various nets of par.

liament and other documents relative to the qualifications,
the mode of nominating and appointing of jams in general,
and of special juries in particular ; and now take lease to
submit to }our honourable court the result of their labours,
as furnishing the basis of an arrangement w filch 3 out com-
mittee %sill have to propose to the adoption of" the Coati,
at the means best calculated to prcecut t lie ndinotistratinn of
the jurisprudence of this city from be4ig pieced in the hands
of perbous who may resort to it fur their private emolument;
and to present an effectual barrier to the encroachments of
the (roan 111100 the liberty of the sul/ject, throu4ll the me-
dium of the most glorious of our institutions " the Trial by
Jury."

It appears to your committee that the corporation of th
city of London have immemorially exercised the inestimable
privilege of regulating the mode of nominating and summon-
i..g their freemen us jurors to serve in and for the city,
without acknowledging ally foreign influence, or being sub-
ject to any control, excepting as regards the qualification of
the per..ib() to be nominated ;tad a ppoilited, a Welt has been

froni time to time settled atin determined by divers ac (g' the
Parliament of England, as by a reference to the said acts
will more fully appear.
By an act of the said Parliament made and passed in the
llth year of the reign of King Henry VII., Cie
of citiaens to be !returned to serve on trial, of a petty nature
in the Courts of the said city, was fixed and determined et
40 marks in lands, tenements, or goods and chattels, and
the prelatical' of citizen, to be returned in like mails
ner to serve in the said Coatis on actimis in which the
question nt issue was of a water value than 40 marks, was
fixed at 100 marks al,o in lands, tenements, or goods and
chattels; and 1). sin act of Parliament made and passed ill
trie tomtit year of the reign of King Henry VIII., c. 3, it
was enacted, rr That the Sheriffs of the city of Londuu
should return in panels and arrays in all actions depending or
to dep• lid in any of the King's courts before himself in his
belie', and before his justices of thecommon bench, and 41,0
in his exchequer, person, being citizens, having goods to the
value of 100 marks and above, to try the issues joined
within the said city, and that such jurors should be duly
sworn to try the same ;" which said act was further con•
firmed, explained mid enforced, by a certain other art of
Parliameut made and passed iu the SIL year of the reign of
King /teary VIII, cap. 5, and by a certain act of the
may or, aldermen, and commonality of the said city, made
and pawed on the tOtli day ofJaituary, in the 11th year of
King Henry VIII., divers regulations were made and
euricted fur the purpose of giving effect to the said recited
act of Parliament, and for time purpose of regulating and
enforcing due and proper returns of all the citizens within
the said city duly qualified under and by virtue of the said
acts of Parliament, to serve on juries in and for the same,
and for the regular summoning and empaneling of juries as
well for the said courts of the said city, as for the vials at
Nisi Prism, and Unpin it'S for the King, to be had and
held within the same, and in and by the ,aid acts in the cuss
Itotly of the Town Clerk of the city, will Inure fully and at
/age appear.

ihat.liy the 7th hod Bth of William 111.. chip. 3V, sect.
41, it was enacted, that all constables and tithing men should
make sow:illy, lists of all penults a 'thin their district, qua•
lifted to serve aa jurors a 'thin the tawny, and that they
should returu them to the blieriff of such county, and that
all juries appointed Is itirin the said couuty ►hould be taken
therefrom', subject to such penalties fur delimit as therein
are mentioned.

That this book, so made OR!, and returned to the sherilT,

Lit ere MUONS copious extracts frum 3d Cco7gc 11. cap. 25. on
the appointment at Jurors.]
That, after an attentive perusal of the said act, your committee
can but deduce the following observations as embracing the ma.
terial fixtures connected with the subject of the reterence, and as
pointing out the only particulars in which the law a, it before
existed was altered in relation to the subject of the present in..
gutty.
First,—lt increased the number of persons qualified to serve
on juries in countless, by adding to the Freeholders' Buuk a class
of persons therein designated, who had been before escluded ;
and it prescribed certain formalities relative to the construction
and versification thereof.
2dly,-4t operated as a restrictive statute in reference to the
city of London, by increasing the qualitkations of a juror from
Inn marks to lOW. and rendered it essential that lie should be a
house-holder within the said city, which was not before necessary.
3dly,—lt gave the institution of special juries, which existed
before by custom only, a legislative sanction and made the
rule for such jury demandable as a Matter of .iglit, whereas it
was betbr., dependent upon the will of the Court, to which an
application was male.
Your committee is therefore of opinion, that the said act of
Parliament made and passed in the fourth year of the reign of
king Henry the Eighth, cap. 8, is now valid and elfmtual, and
that the qualification of a juror of this city, mentioned in the 24
sect. thereof, is in full force and virtue, save only so far as the
same islimited and altered by the 19th section of the act so mace
and passed in the third year of King George II ; and that there.
fore no person ought to be returned on any jury fur the city of
London, to try any issue joined in the superior courts, unlers
he be a citizen of London, and a householder within the said
city, possessed of lands tenements, or personal estate, to the value
of loW. _ . .

All of which we submit to the judgment of this honourable

Afotion.—That this court do agree with the committee in their
said report, and that it be referred back to the said committee, to
report if any and what measures should be adopted to rectify the
evils complained of.
Amendment.—That the consideration thereof be adjourned;
and that in the mean time the said report be printed in thetmi.
nutes of the proceedings, and a copy thacof sent to every inenibcr
of this court.

Arneudmerst negatived.
Original Minion put and
Rerukcd in the affirmative.

Accounts have been received at Copenhagen from
Christianburgh, the principal of the Danish settle•
ments on the coast of Guinea. It appears that Nlajcr
Stiffens, the Military Commandant of that station,
has recently had occasion to put in force, in a very
marked mariner, the rigorous orders he has received
from his Government, to prevent every sort of traffic
in slaves. A Portuguese slave vessel, supported by
another vessel of the same class, but well armed,
made its appearance before Thamma, a town under
the Danish sovereignty, with the intention of making
some purchases there of slaves. Major Staffens im-
mediately occupied the place with one thousand
men, and made the Portuguese captain and a part of
his crew prisoners. The Major has sent them to
Sierra Leone for trial. We are sorry to add, that
two Englishmen were seized at the same time, for
participating in the diabolical traffic; they had been
delivered to the Commander of the English fort of
St. James, and will, it is said, be sent to London to
be tried. The Chief of the town is supposed to have
had a secret understanding with the slave merchants.
—The vessel which aceorapanied the Portuguese
trader, and which is said to have been Dutch, effected
its escape.
TYE ROMAN BRIDGE IN HOLLAND.—The Ito-
man bridge, which was discovered, at Groningen,
in Holland, in 1818, is now wholly cleared from
the turf with which it is surrounded. It is three
miles long and 12 feet broad. It laid by the fifteenth
cohort of Germanieus, over the marshes, in which
deep beds of turf have since been formed, and, in all
probability gradually sunk under the marsh by its
own weight. The ruinous particles which are in the
marshy soil have probably contributed to preserve
the bridge, which is entirely of wood. Every six
feet there were posts to support the railing, as may
be judged by the holes in which they were fixed.—
This great work, which consists of a judicious
number of beams, appears to have been wrought
with very large axes ; the workmanship is admirable.
Elects of Lighliting.—During a violent storm,
which visited the town of Biberbach, in Prussia, on
the evening of Monday, July 16, four young pea-
sants, engaged on an eminence in some agricultural
labours, had recourse to the expedient of sustaining
a bundle of clover over their heads with a pitchfork,
in order to shelter themselves from the rain. The
lightning struck the pitchfork, passed along the
breast and shoulders of one of the young men, af-
terwards over the lower part of the belly of the one
who stood next him, ran down his right leg till it
reached his toes, and there caused a turn about the
diem: ter of a 12 Kreutzer piece, without having left
any trace of its passage on the outside of his boots,
which were carefidly examined. The direction
taken by the lightning was marked by a burnt hue
both on his skin and on his clothes. Although these
two young men were much injured, hopes were
entertained of saving their lives;' the two others
were not hurt. The most remarkable circumstance
in this event is, that the young pan, who suffered
the most, and who was a little dhk, has been per-
fectly restored to his sense of hearing aiisce the sc..
cideut.
