roiTuoutra. COMMISSIONERS.

Arr. Gann° w movedtor. a rule to sbcw cause why
a crlmitiaJ information should net-be find against
Mr. Joseph Lyme, for a ftbeloupon- Win. Byrne,
.B,q. one of ltiB CtimmisslOners and Agetits for pro.
. teAing Portriguese property in this country. The
libel he Ifaid, was contained in two ietieri addressed
by Mr. Lyme, to Anthony a Portuguese
merchant, and ‘yritten in Italian. The first was dated
rthe. 27th April, t BQB, and sent in Pomp! ; and the
sus 9d, dated Jul the ..'24th, 1808, and sent to the
7.ibi. The 'ohjea of Mr. Lyme, lie said, appeared
, two-fold ; one •to destroye the reputa,tion of
Mr: Byrne.; and*the- other.;
,to ptomote his own
comMercial tienrs Brazils; The letters in-
formed-Mr.-LYrne's Correspondents. that the Portu-
guese Were cOnsiderod by_ the English' Orders in
Council hi the same light as 'Frenchmen, and there»
fore it wits requisite that . those who claimed Portu-
guese property should send over the proper docu.
clients. With respea to the Commissioners fur
proteatng that property, they were. such gluttons,
that they eat up all. 'That the complaints against
them were innumerable, and that the Portuguese
Minister had suspended them, when be ought to
have dismissed them. In short, they were not only
guilty of the most shameful and injurious delay,
but their waste and destruaion of progerty ex-
cited his horror. Now, said the Learned Counsel,
not an iota of what is so stated is applicable to the
Geta:than in question.
LOWELLENI3O9OtIGH said, no particular as of
delinquency was pointed out. The charges were
general, and. he had no doubt gross and unfounded,
but they pointed at nothing individually.
Mr. GARROW said, it was destroying the. repute.
tion of the individuals, which was every thing to
them.

. Lord ELLIMBOROUGH.—The charge is, that the
property eaten up; but the letters do not point
out any particular aa of delinquency. .Ltesides, the
letters appear, to be confidentially. written, for
though they are termed: eircularohey are only so to'
the correspondents of the party.
Mr. GARKOW Said, their circulation could not be
circumscribed or limited when once they were tons...,
witted to a foreign country, and they were calcu.
lated to destrey the cohlidence of' the Portuguese
nation in the justice of).,tins country. The letters
were circular as to all Portuguese tiouses, and corn-
ing to one with which Mr., Byrne corresponded,
copies were sent back.

Lord Et..2,aetioaooott-i-The parties alluded to
certainly stand in very high and ostensible situations,
and it is important that they, should be considered
clear in their (ace. It may, therefore, be nt that
the party moved against should explaiu himself.
GAVIOW said, it was upon that ground. he
applied to the Court.
Lord &Lasso aouon—Take a rule to shewouse.

TIIE XING V. JOIIN HANSuN, 144.
The ArToasraY-GesraitAL prayed the judgMent
of the Court on the Defendant.
Mr. hstice La BLANc read the report, of the, trial,
which bad taken place at the last .Assizes fir the
county of Lancaster.. ,Frotu the 'report, the nature *!
of the Caliell_l_ppeared to be that of
.an indiarnent
against the „Defendant, stating that on the ;sth of
May last, a great number of evil-disposed persons,
principally weavers, had assembled together in St.
George's-fields, in the neighbonrhood of Manchester,
elledging that they could not live by the wages
fVhicts they then received, insisting that they must
have more wages, as the price Of their labour; and
that the•Defenclant, • Mr. Hanson, had come among
them, addressed to them a speech, encouraging
them to persevere in'their demands for au increase
of Wages, and, using such expressions as those—
" Your cause is good, and I will support you as far
As 30001,-;-Stick to your cause, and
.I will support
you as far as 30001. and if that is not sufficient, I
will go further.--My father was a weaver—l was
horn a weaver, end I am a friend of the weavers."
The witnesses on the part of the, prosecution
by
these words in substance to . have.beett used by the
Defendant on •the above occasion,• when there were
present about 7000 persons, as it was supposeit
On the part of the Defendant, a great number of
witnesses appeared at the trial, who negatived these
words being uttered on this occasion in their•hear-
ing ; but stated that they•heard Mr. Hanson tell the
mob, that if they had a regard for their King, for
their Country, for themselves, and for him they
would go home quietly and peaceably ; and that his
coudnet wan that of a good subjea; and that he did
not come there for the purpose of encouraging a riot
but to quell At
The ..Jury, however, after a foil investigation of
the'case, found the Defendant Guilty.
Now; affidavits wet e produced op behalf dike De-
fendant frorn some Of the most. respeCtable persons
of the neighbourhood hi which he lives: stating that,.
they knew-him well; had known him for the greater
part of his life, that he was a ,roan of .perica, in-
tegrity, Of unquestioned loyalty, was•C,olonel CUM-
modem of a Corps of I,tolunteers'in .that ueighbour..,
hood, a man of large 'property and. great infltience
there, &c. •

Mr. GARUOW, and Mr, Aar i ,addressed the Court
in mitigation of punishment, and observed, among
other things, that it
..was rather difficult to discover
11,e points on which the verdid turned, and, there-
fore they had thought of moving fdr a new trial; but
as there was evidence on t)oth sides,' and as the
Learned judge hail lelt it, to the Jury to 'Consider on
which side the evidence preponderated;and as they
bad decided that point against the Defendant, it Wasjudged, noon consultation of against,
