a book to which both parties claimed right, and of
which the Defendant had -obtained pusseision, by
breaking open the desk ut a person employed both
by him and the Phiintitf;
_ __

Lord Chief Justice MAN Sh ELI) observed, that the
book was a document to all parties, and recommend-
ed a compromise. This, however, was declined.—
His Lord•hip then informed the Jury, that, agreea-
bly to -law, they must find fur tile Defendant, the
Plaintiff not having tirade out that-the book was his
property. This the Jury, after delib4trating and re-
monstrating repeatedly, declared they could not do.
His LOrd.4hip, to remove their scruples, ordered that
the 'book should he, for a certain period;' in the
hands of the Clerk of the Court, a pry::ec;re which
gave satisfattiots to • all sides. The Jury, however,
still found for the Plaintiff. Being desired to.came
the damages, they named 501. . Tile Lord Chief
Justice said they had, given 501. for a. book. not in-
trinsieally worth three fin-things.
A ,case between,the same parties also came on in
the Court of King'S Bench, being an of tress
pass, for breaking open the door of a 'roorit belong-
ing to the Plintiff. The r.,,reseuce of_ the material
witness, hoWeVer, being required in the one Court,
while he was giving evidence in 'the other, the Plain-

SMITH V. BA ILEV:

This was an action brought by the Sher;ff of Lon-
don to recover poundage for goods taken in execu-
tion at the suit of the Defenk:anf. The case was
only remarkable for the misconduct of .Sheritf's
officer, who had been prevailed on by the trades-
man, against whom the execution issued, to return
the goods on the premises of the valtie of Litwoi;
Len, in fad, they were only worth 11001.
The Jury found a verdid for the Plaintiff.

The Le ned Judge severely censured the beha-
viour of the Sheriff's officer, and it was afterwards
stated that he would be dismissed from his office.

eupation ofcertain'apartments in the Hotel, which
the Defendant had agreed shOuld always be retaipeel
for his use at the rate of 1201. I.er annum. An
agreement to this effed was produced in the hand-
writing of Sir William, which began with the
formality of a wit iant, as (Covent-Garden to w;1),
and then the agreement was set out to ,he etfeet
above stated. The waiters of the house ,were
who proved that the 1,1: Pendant had occiiiied Inc

ISTURBA CP IT G

It has been already mentione4,', that- an afrray
to: k plac at ;Hant!burgh 1)14 ween the popnlace att.!
the Frtnel sohliely.. We have'rec,=i‘vdn)
details than are contained in the Foreign Jon fulls,—
It was on Easter Tuesday that it li:tiipt-itedi and it
_
arose from- the tiotimandant - or-.!c the
gates of the ttiwn to be shut. at an eat lier howr than
usual,; on the pretence of its -being a holid.:y, and
tt it II a view" to 11. i-event eires,ies, in conseer,renco of
this; a number:Of the inhabitanis.were shut out, and
about 1000 of them presetnedthemselves before the
gates, and demanded entrance..: The -gates not .be-
ing opened at their demand, from liaise and chtinour
the populace proceeded to pelt the soldiers with
stones,nnd a very serious commotion 'took place.
Some of the military quartered in the town, joined
the guard, and fired upon the people, seven or eight
of whom were killed, and many more wounded.
At this junaure a tire broke out iw the town, 'and,
some person rang the alarm bell. This caused a ge-
neral confusion; the French Commandant consider-
ed it as the premeditated signal for a general insur-
reCtion, atid, under this itnpresion, 'dispatched a
Courier 'to BERNI-110,TTB for snecouri, who was at
that time. in Jutland. In the meanwhile the Senate
assembled, and effeaual means were taken to quell
the.disturbance. • •

At this time the force in Hamburgh acid its vici-
nity was insignitirant,;and could eaiily have been
subdued by a resolute mob. Peace being restored,
the Senate dispatched a messcrter to iiE.RN A POTTE,
inplaining the affair,. and . promising to prevent, as
far as lay in their power, similar tumults. flux NA-
DOTTE, it was supposed, had thought proper to meet
the last message with indifference; for When the
accounts came away, French troops were marching
towards Hamburgh, &am various quarters ;, and it
is apprehended that this affair will furnish a pretext
for, new extortions. • *

The day after the disturbance, a Proclamition was
issued by the French, tto prevent riots in future. It,
was ordered, that any person sounding the alarm
bell without instruCtionS from the FreiSufi, •should
be shot on .the spot ; that any penion throwing a
Stone at a French auldier, should he tried by a mili-
tary counnishion, and if found guilty, be punished;
with death. If tour or more persons were' found
talking together, the French soldiers on duty had a
right to require them to separate, and in case they
disobeyed, to fire upon them.

EXTRACT OF ANOTHER LETTER LEOS! A MEMBER

OP CONGRESi.

" Monday Evening, eight o'clock.

"'the Dispatches by the Revenge have, I assure
you, given a very serious aspen indeed to our affairs
with Franee.

" it is not in my power to disclose the business
cif the closed doors. One thing, however, r venture
to say with confidence, which is, that it 1}414 itovi be-
came a getierol opinion hero that our affairs :DIA

England may lie anti ally settle4"ko eltlire
faCtion," &c.

Another Letter says--" So. general is tl,e belief
that an Embargo will be laid, that all the Shipping
at Alexandria have cleared out and dropped down

the river."

A Letter received in Philadelphia, dated at Wash-
ington, on Sunday, says, « that while sitting with
closed doors we received a Bill from the Senate,
laying an EtlllAltGl3 on our Vessels, that is, all the
Ships of the United States ; which, after being read
twice, was sent back to the'Senate, with a ' few
Amendments." The Writer then adds, he makes
no doubt that it would be passed that day or the
next.

Arrived the British Packet No ion, MATHER, 43
dovi from Falmouth, via Bermuda. Sir JOHN Boa-
LASE WARREN had not arrived at Bermuda when
'the Packet sailed.

New-Yonx, DEC. 28.—Capt. MEAGHER, in
22 dam from Antigua, informs, that a few days pre-
iious to his-sailing a Fleet of about 10 Sail of British
Shipsitt war passed Antigua for St. Croix and St.
Thottas, for the purpose it was supposed, of taking
thoseislan,ls.

We have been favoured; says the Philadelphia
Gazet4e, with the perusal of several letters from
Gentlemen of undoubted information and veracity,
dated Decacriber 22, upon which we feel fully au-
thorised to state:

I, That the Measure of an EinbargO was reCom-
1,,./pewAed ,to Congress by the President in a confi •
dential message accompanied
,by a communication
of litroNApAu.res bloCkading Decree, and an an-
kiwer"froin REGNIEft, the Minister of Justice, to
,some..•questions respe&ing the operation of that
Decree.

Not a word is said. to hay.e been communicated
relative to Mr. ARMSTRONG'S advice to the GOvern-,
merit. The measure was hurried through the
House with an, unusual spirit of eagerneis and'acri-
mony, at the very moment when Mr. MuNnoc was
hourly -expeaed, Its advocates represent it as a
measure of coercion against Great Britain. It was
Opposed by Messrs. RANDOLPH, DANA, LIVER•
MQRE, QUINCEY, ROWAN, GOLDSBOBOUGH, KELLY
and others, on the-ground that it was a slavish sub-
mission, to the mandates
,of the French Emperor.
It however passed, 82 to 44. '•
Mr. GAtinTitt is said to have .declared, that in
his opiniori, it is preparatory to a&ive War mea
sures against England.
London, England, 1808-01-26

EMBARGO.

. .
It is a happy consideration also attending this
measure (says the Notional, lizielligincer) that al-
'thot*h it will have effects, salutary it may be holied,
on the: policy of the great contending Nations, it
affords neither of them the-Slightest ground for com_
plaint. 'The Embargo violftes the rights of none.
,itsObjeel .to secure ourselves. It is a measure
of precaution, not of aggression. It is resorted to
by. all Ndtious, when their great interests require
it. . .
All of Ahem have made us on different occa-
sions feel the effeas of such a resort on our com-
mercial interests.- And it could be the less mur-
.mured at by those' who may be. incidentally af-
,fe4te4 by the present embargo, inasmuch, as they
have: forced us into the measure, by the direl ef-
feet on us of measures founded in in alleged re-
gard for their own eventual safety and essential in-
terests.

But may not the embargo bring on war from
some of the nations affected by it ? Certainly not;
if war be not predetermined on against us. Being a
Measure of peace and precaution ; being •universal,
and therefo:e impartial ; 'extending in reality as well
as Ostensibly to all nations; there is not a shadow of
pretext to make it a cause of war. War, therefore,
let 'it be repeated, cannot be the result ; unless it be
in pursiiance of a predetermined plan of hostility
against this Country.

EXTRACT FROM THE OF ;AN. 7.

" AmsersanAM, DEC. 28,..--gxtraas are citeulated
hero of the 'Otte:al Not by which England has
4,t,iven an answer to the offer of Mediation of the
Emperor of Russia. That Note, signed CANNPIG,
zontains in substance, that his Britannic Majesty
would have accepted, with pleasure, the Mediation
,of lussia, it be had received information respeet-
ing' ilie basis upon which the Mediator hoped to
re-establish the General Peace. But his Majesty
,the Emperor of. Russia, after having repeatedly
j)rorrilf;ed to his Britannic Majesty not to conclude
any Peace with France without having assured the
indpendence of the German Princes, had, notwith.
standing, sighed the Treaty of Tilsit, which far from
:Fontainitig any stipulation .on that head, seemed
to submit the v?hote of Gertpany to the wishes of
France. Now his Britannic' Majesty cannot enter
into any Negociation with France, unless the com.
plefe restitution of the Ele6lorate of Hanover be
admitted, as a preliminary basis. By an uncon-
tlitional acceptanee of the Russian mediation, his
iiritannic Majesty would have reason to fear lest
his Gorman States should become 4 French Province;
therefore his 4ritannic Majesty places his confidence
in the efforts of his People, in order to force his
implacable Enemy into more conciliatory mea.
