MADRID, OCT.
I.s.—Posterity, on perusing the
l'istory of our present troubles, will hardly credit
„
Z'e atrocities which the Spanish nation, in other. re-
t":l46 so brave and generous, have been led to per-
rate. A chara&er of cruelty has been impressed
pre.ient internal war, of which we find no
t'aMple in the history of civilised, nations, and but
eW instances in that of barbarous countries. It
n'akes one shudder to hear of the atrocities which
rr"ed. parties commit upon thothoseunfortunate
„,,,e,neh soldiers, or, travellers, whom 'they fall in
ttu, in a state.comnlereli defenceless, and whom
Pat to death, without mercy, amidst. every
escript ion of torture. Such a mode of warfare is
'reprobated by religion, humanity, and the law of
nations.

'l3"' it is not enough to tolerate such enormities
they are even stamped with the names of heroism
and patriotism. Thus, in the the,
Gzetle of the
.1t1) one Xavier de Mena is prai,ed for having,
Wttb a band of self-called palriotr;infeSted the roads
Detween Pampeluna and SaragnSiiie, ' and, basely ill-
t'tated and 'butchered such straggling Frenchmen
tll/,‘.ii in his way. In the paper just mentioned,
ad 's man is denominated brave, though he has Bever
spiiit-enough to serve in the Spanish army, or to'.
freer in the field a French corps,. considerably ince-
rior in numbers to his folloWers.' In order to merit •
that title, the wretch boasts 'that ht has,;• with hiS
own hand, assassinated -a ntiniber of Prenchinen,
lind among others, that lie skit a General of Divi-
sion in his carriage.
A Decree has been published here, in which his
Majesty says, that he has learnt with regret, tha, iu
b3tisecitience of existing,abuSes wiih regard• to the
collection of tythes, the parochial clergy of his king,-
tfom 'are aaually *destitute of the necessaries of life I._
and being anxious to put an end to such a state of
things, by a permanen't provision for the subsisterice
6fii. a class of sobjeas not less useful and respeCtables
zA that of fhe higher clergy, he has fixed the mi-
d of the stipends'of the parochial priests at 400
is a year.

,41orses, one of the light-horse ran away with his

'ttendatits, which knocked him and his horse down ;
sthe attendant sustained very little injury, and re-
INunted his horse. The soldier's horse was stopped

mounted him again, although his face was covered

i The ATTORNEY GENERAL Prayed the Cont.! fur
judgment nil these Defendants, found goilty, at the
1.0:1;Lin Sitting.; after last term, of conspiring to
proenre 20001.. for the sale-of an appointment, to be
made by the Lord 3 Comthissi.•ners.of the Treasury.,
of the office of Coasting- v.aiter in the Customs;
L&d - - • -
ELLENBQROUGH, before whom the indict-
ment was tried, read his notes on the trial ; and long
affidavits, in mitigation of pUnishment by each of
the Defendant 4, were afterwards read by the proper
officers of the Conrtii the prnicipal points of which
were afterwards urged by the several Counsel for the
• . several Defendants, as follows
Mr. ESPINAME and Mr. Anonrows, fOr the De-
- ftndant Pohlman, addressed the Court, not in mi-
tieation of the offence, but of the punishment to .be
aided on the. Defendant. They admitted that_!
thanks were due to the Attorney General for his- in-
terference in the present
,case, and were rejoiced to
find, that in consequence of that interference, ad-
-1 ivertisements for the sale of ptiblic offices were now
at an end. It was only natural, they contended, for
their client, who was a foreigner, to fall into error,
1 when every newspaper contained an advertisement
j for the disposal of -places, and their client was only-
{ the means of introducing parties to each other; nor
j did he intend the smallest deceit, advertising in his
own name, and referring to his own place of Tesi-
-1 dence. The persiins who answered the advertise-.
I meat, the Defendant Pohltnan referred to the Cus-
tom-House Office ; and as to what the evidence had
stated about dispensing with the ,Custom-House
oath; this the D...fendatin swore himself to have on-
detStood 'to 'refer to the oath about the age of the
party. It had also been stated in the evidence, that -
the Duke. of Portland had received money on ac-
count of the . sale of places; all the Defendant
Pohlman'had intimated was, that persons about' the
Doke had received such money. The Defendant
further stated, -that not a single public place had
ever been sold at his office, and that he had received
no etriolumenti.tom the present negotiation. The
Defendant Pohlman was a stranger to this country
and to its laws, and • the learned Counsel imputed
half his pia to his ignorance of our language and
our laws, and urged his imprisonment from July,
on tbesurrender of his bail, in mitigation of his pu- '
ni 41 meat,
Mr. DAMPIER, "foirtheDefendant Keylock, urged
that no transaction had; actually, taken place, and that
his client and his partner • were • the dupes, and not
the duping. Mr. Hesse,- file negociator for the
place, had got his money back, acid it was Keylock
who added the clause in the aegociation, that tip •
money should be,received fruin Mr. Hesse, unless
he obtained his situation. Notwithstanding all the:
clamour which.had been raised'about these things,..
his client had lost between Gal. and 701. by this con-
cern ; and •it could not but go vut into the world,
that when these negociations did take place, they
were, losing concerns: The Learned Counsel con-,
eluded). that notwithstanding all the flippancy about.
oaths which the. evidence detailed, that obligation
was never mentioned . before his client without his_
expt essing his sense of the.setiousncss and solemnity.
pt th ~ obligation. . . • ~-.. •

Mr. GURNEY, on the 'part -Of the Defendant,
Sarah Hatvey,-urged that she was the mere dive
of Jeremiah Reding, whose name had been intro!-
&iced into a negociatiOn in =which Lord Castlereagh
was implicated, and who introduced- himself to his
client while he was in prison for debt, as a person
cOnnkie,t with gentlemen of high rank in the State.
If Reding could impose upon them, then the learned
Counsel contended that it was n6t very improbable
that be should impose upon his client'. He showed
her letter's, which she believed to be genuine, and
she negotiated ,hiS business for. him.; at first believ-
ing hill) to be a man in distress, but was afterwards
perstiaded to accept of a remuneration for her great
trouble, and aelually accepted of a promissory note
for 5.01. which was,never paidond of which she, had
never received a farthing tothisday. She had never
been concerned in any prior transaction of thelike
nature, and did not know the present' to be illegal ;
reading ,advertisements to its etleCt in ti the nel.vspa.
pers every'day. She had but a slender income .and.
two ..small children to support; and these circum-
stances'the learned Counsel pressed in. mitigation of
her punishment., •
