situation.

Mr. Witt TRR-EAD then suggested the propriety of
the prisoner's being condut-ted down stairs by one
or two of the Magistrates and the officers, his com-
mitment to his :Majesty's jail of Newgate having
been previously made out ; and that the Gentlemen
present should remain in the room, that no crowd
might lead to confusion below. This plan was ac-
ceded to, and the prisoner taken out.

At a quarter off` an hour before eight o'clock, a
carriage was sent for by the order of the Magis-
trates, which immediately occupied the attention
of the populace. The prisoner was taken from
the Committee-room, and guardcd by the Mes-
sengers and Police Officers, to the southern en-
trance into the House or Commons. One of the
Officers entered the carriage, and the opposite door
was immediately opened, and the populace cheered.
Ilse carriage drove off in the most rapid manner.
The Officers returned to the prison room, .and in-
formed .the Chaim In, that they did not think it
secure to proceed with the Prisoner, without The
aid of a military force. A troop of the Horse-
Guards were sent for, and arrived at nine o'clock.
Before their arrival, the prisoner was reconduEled
to the prison-room, where he found much fault
with Vickery, one of the Officers bolonging to
Bow-street, for having inquired from some female
something relative to his private .affairs. He did
most calmly say, he knew the consequence of the
a& he had committed, which he did not consider of
a private nature. On Vickery's answering, that
he had only spoken in general terms to the female,
and she told him she•had in her possession amemo-
randum of 201. due by a Mr. Wilson to him. The
prisoner, 'in the most unconcerned manner, replied
he knew what it was ; it was a bill that he expelled
would have been paid this day, at half-past nine
o'clock. The Horse Guards changed their position

to Palace-yard, opposite the avenue leading to the
Speaker's house, through which the prisoner was
!ed, and pia into ^. carriage, attended by the mili-
tar'y, folowed by the crowd.

The remains of the CHANCELLOR of theExcEiE•
qUEK were first lodged in the Speaker's Secre-
tary's room, and after an hour, removed to the
Speaker's house. Mr. Stirgeon LYNN was called
in immediately after the fatal wound, but the spark
of life was extinguished. We had a view of the
body---the ball entered under the left breast. The
aperture Was apparently small. It is alMost impos-
sible to describe the melancholy scene. The corpse
was laying on a Sofa, and Lord ARDttZ and the
SPEAKER niourning.over it, manifesting the deepest
Melancholy and regret.

During the whole period after the commission of
this murder, the prisoner (Bellingham) appea'ed
much more calm and colleted than could well ba
imagined of a person in his situation. There were
no signs of insanity, or want of a proper appre-
hension of every thing that had been done, and was
doing about him. In no part of the proceeding
did he betray extreme agitation, but at the Mo-
ment that the witness, Phillips,rsaid, " f support-
ed Mr, PERCEVAL in the Secretary's room, and in
a few minutes he died in my arms." Upon this
the prisoner shed tears, and seemed touch af,
feaed.

The result of the inquiry which took plaCe in the
Committee-room is to form the ground-work of the
Coroner's Inquest, which is to be held this day
before Lord ELLENBOROUGH, the Grand Coroner
of England.
After the examination, when the hackney-coach
was brought to the iron gates in New Palace-yard,
to convey away the prisoner, the crowd, which
was at first composed of decent people, had been
gradually ,swelled by a concourse of pickpockets and
the lower orders, who mounted the coach, and were
so exceedingly troublesome and even dangerous,
that it was not deemed advisable to send him to
Newgate in the manner intended. We heard with
pain, repeated shouts of applause from the ignorant
or depraved part of the crowd, as it they were
hailing some oppressed but innocent vi aim ; some
of whom even mixed with their shouts, the cry of
" Burdett for ever !" and attempted to open the
opposite door of the coach, as if to give the mur-
derer an opportunity of escape. A party of Life
Guards arrived about this time, and formed a semi-
circle in Lower Palace-yard, by which the mob
kept more at a distance. It was, however, thought
more prudent to send him away by another outlet,
and so avoid all confusion. He was therefore taken
oct by the Speaker's entrance.
A Cabinet Council was summoned, and the de-
par ore of the Post delayed, till dispatches could be
made out, and instruatns prepared for the Civil
and Military Authorities in every part of the. United
Kingdom, in order that seasonable steps may be
taken for preserving the peace throughout the coun-
try, and particularly in those distrias where an in-
flamed and infatuated muititnde'have committed the
most savage barbarities. We have every reason to
believe that the measures taken will be effeaual, as
the military power in the disturbed counties is en-
trusted to a most vigorous and yet humane Officer,
the Honourable General MAITLAND, in whose sa-
gacity, firmness, atcl exertions, the public may have
the most entire confidence. The Earl of DERBY
and Earl of STAMFORD have also left town for their
respeaive distrias, to exert their authority as Lords
.
uentenants, to. restore tranquility,
The Committee concluded their examination of
the assassin at half after nine o'clock ; and a notice
was sent to Mr. NEWMAN, the Keeper of Newgate,
to prepare for the reception of the delinquent. Mr.
Sheriff HEYG,tTE went himself to Newgate, and
gave particular direttions that the murderer, when
received into the gaol, should be watched in such a
way as to prevent the possibility of his perpetrating
suicide,

The Cabinet Connell sat to a late hour, and be-
tween twelve and one o'clock this mo►ning he was
conveyed, under a strong escort of Dragoon Guards,

in a coach, to Newgaie.
The commitment was signed by MxcnAßL AIcOE-
Lo Loh, Esq. who accompanied him in the coach
to Nevvgate, attended by Mr. Ross, one of his Ma-
jesty's Messengers, and two Officers of the Poli6e.
The troop of horse was under the command of
Colonel BARTON ; the cavalcade did not arrive at
Netvgate till one o'clock, and by order of the Ca-
binet Council two Wen were ordered to sit Lip in the
cell with him. • •

r
The nature of the man's claims, we understand to
be no other than, that he imputes to our Ministers in
Russia the ‘N anth o
he of
h
or of interference in
adispute w hi ;)fin'the Consul of Arch-
angel, by which- he incurred a loss of seven or
eight thousand pounds, but in which the British
'pte
dod :ii
Government had nothing to do. He was imprison-
ed in Russia in consequence of his violence ; and
on his arrival here, he. pplied to all the public
'offices, even those which had nothing to do with

any such business; anti was lola by- all of the,
that they could not take cognizance of his private
affairs. He saki that he was driven to despair he,
three weeks ago; bought the pistols for the liofrid
deed, which he has ar last perpetrated.
BEt.t.tivoitAth is a tall, large-boned man, about
40 Years of age, with a thin, long visage and aqui:.
noses his eyes are'sunken, arid, hiS complexicini
at the time we saw him just after the asSat6nation,
of a ghast!y, pallid hUe. After committing
rid deed he quietly sat hiinself down era the bench
near the tie in the lobby; but before he was taken
into the "Blouse; he appeared greatly agitated arid
clasped his hands, although he was far from sop
placating pity. His principal anxiety Seemed to
be, tO persuade the wondering spectators that the
a& was jtistifiable froth the prcA'ocation he had re
coived.

' We have little to add to the tieart-rending state-
ment whi'h we have laid before our readers. Foi

Mrs. PERCEVAL, she remained in a state of coin-
plete insensibility. This Morning she has, fortu=
nately, found some relief in tears. All her children atee

situation. The body of Mr. PERCEVAL was ra
Moiled from the Speaker's house to Downing-street
between one and two o'clock this morning. Th 4
Coroner's inquest had not Set when this paper w. 31
put to press.7—We shall not att 'mpt, in the pre-
sent slate of our
.feelings, to give.an elaborate chi-
tAet Of thiS lamented Statesman, but we should
be inexcusable if we omitted to state, that in all the
relations of ptivate life, he was one of the niost
amiable men that ever existed. As a husband;
father, friend, he was affeElionate and benevo-
lent ; his piety was Warhl, and unatTe6led, and
his charity unbounded. As a Statesman, he
was the firm supporter of the genuine principles
• of the Constitution; and at no period of our history
have the arms of this country ever attained more
glory than under his Administration. His ,alents in
debate were very great; without possessing the pow-
erful and commanding eloquence of Mr. PITT, he
was more than a match for any of his opponents;
his replies were actite, argumentative, witty,
and sarcastic ; even these who most frequently and
most severely felt the effeBs of his eloquence,
were ready to acknowledge his powers--powers
Which seemed al wayt to increase with the difficul-
ties with which he had to contend.

B Houses of Parliament will, it 1 expeaed,
adjourn this day for a week, in order to give time
for those arrangements which will be necessary in
conseqUence of the death of this great and good
man.

THOMAS 13ABINGTON, Esq. in the. Chair.
[Continued from our Paper of Friday.]
, •
Are yoki aware whether it is or is not the pie-,
tice (or nail faCtors to exclude the work of women
and children from the manufattnres they receive
from the nallera.?—lt certainly is not the practice;
the master manufacturers have lately been reduced
- to such extremity, that the, have been desirous of
excluding all the work they possibly could, and. no-
thing tint humanity and a sense of duty has induced
them to continue th. 4 labourers, therefore there is
no dotalat they do discharge the inferior workmen,
such as children and women, sooner than they do
tlia able workmen.
Do manufaelurers of nails work fewer hours in
the day this year, or the same number of hours
they-did last'year?--They have worked more hours
of the day for the last seven.years; I, should think
their trade has been gradually growing worse, and
with- the depreciation of money, their profits have
gradually decreased, and within the last twelve
months, their nominal wages have decreased very
seriously indeed.
Can you deliver to the Committee an account of
the poor rates of Birmingham for the last seven or
eight years ?—What I stag as to tl.e poor, rates of
Birmingham for the last seven ,or eight years is only
from accidental knowledge, for, till within the last
few hours, I bad no idea of being examined before
this House, but they amount now to about four or
five • thou and pounds per annum more than they
were some years ago ; they are now about twienty-
five thousand pounds a year, and six or seven years
ago probably they were not more than twenty thou-
sand a year.
Shall you be able at a future day to furnish the
• Committee with an account of the animal amount
of the poors' rates for the last four or five year.s ?
Cer aiuly, I would wish to explain what I have said
as to t',e pours' rates not having materially increas-
ed, by stating that the manutaguters of Birming—
ham had- been in thi: habit of earning more wages
tt.an Id! to the lot of I bouring men in general;
three years ago, the usual wages-of labouring-men
• was from about thirty to lot ty shillings a week ; cer--
tainly they- are generally reduced now to twenty
shillings s week, ,and thousands of manufa&urers
have been employed upon these terms : I wish also
to state, that tile different clUbs which have been.
eatablieed in Birmingham, have materially assisted
the labouring classes, and their natural spirit has
aasis!ed the m s ill more; for there are. multitudes of
them, more than this "Honourable House would
imagine, that would rather perish than apply, for
parochial ait.
You have stated, that there has been a' great fall-
. ing off in the trade of Birmingham ; to whavause
do you attribute the falling off in the trade or Bir-
mingham ?—ln
.a great degree to the cessation of
intercourse with the United States of America, very
\ far in the greatest degrae; but in otherrespeas-to
the,stoppage of all continental intercourse, but.that
not to so large an-amoutit as the.intercourse of the'
United States ; when I say that the nranufaalurer3
'art- Birmingham exported- to the- United States of
America amount to about .800,0001- or a million per
annum, I wish to observe that they are almost en-
tirely composed of labour; there is no expense or
scarcely any in the raw material, and therefore that
800,0001. or one million, is now lost to the labour-

ing rn, ebanies. -
In your opinion, is that attributable in a great de-
gree or in Arsty degree, to the Orders in Council
C7rtainlyi, I do beheire that the Orders in
by assisting the dderences between us and the
Uti:ted States of America,. have tended-mosi-tt a-
tfrially to close the ports of the United States of
America against
.113.

Can you take upon yourself to state, that this
falling off of the trade of Btrminglia.n, did not be-
gin before the Orders in'Cobncil took effect ?—Yes;
i ran state, that four or five years. ago, many
...branches• of the trade in Birmingham were profit-.
ahle, as much as trades usuilily are;- but certainly on
the
.operation of the Orders in. Council, although
s.,me intercour,e with America still continued
casualty-, the trade of Birmingham has gradually de-
Chned,- and I believe, even the continental exports.
,ve gradually declined.
From what sources do you.derive your inforrna- •
thin of the gener.ll amount o; the export from Bir-
ham toAluerio.t ? derive my Mformation'prin- •
cipally !ram rnyi own-personal knOwledge, and partly
from the inquiries I have made among tare iner-
chants of Birmingham.
Do yon mean to say, that you have colle63ed from
priisate infoitrlation, that there were different ex-
ports tt) the-amount of- 800,0001. annually to Aare.'
tica ?—1 do ; I mean to, observe, that I have my-
self hadinany,rettuns passii.gthrough my .hands of.
exports to the States of- America, and I have
also known oilier trierchat.ts that I was Confident
were doing as nbich business as those merchants
whose business cline under, my4observation, and I
haVe cast up thoe kindl.Of returns, and
-fou:,d them amount to 800,0001- :or 1,000',0001.
per anntim. •.: „
At s.v hat tirrie-.(44ct make that computation ?
i
It has been a sul,leet of- retpury with Me for.many
years, considering it a part of the duly I owed to
myself, and in fact to my neighbours, to ascertain,
in my situation of life, the realsircumstauces, and
• Cie renl habits, and the real trade,of every individual
in Birmingham... -
Haveyou never at. any recent period estimated
• • the etrisorts from Birmingha.nn Ameriea at a much
amount ?—I do not recolle that I ever esti-
mj ed them at much less.
Have you. ever estimated't-hem- very recently as
10w.a.550,000l have estimated the stock of Bir-
mingham goods now at Liverpool at 500,0001. or
near that sum ; but I do not recolleEt that I have es-
timated the annual export of Birmingham to the

United States of Annrica so low as that, if I tilve
ever I must have spoken thoughtlessly.
Is not the principal export through the port of.
Liverpool to America I—By far the
Is there any from any other port )----,Some from
Bri,tol, and some small exports from London. •
In what year did this 'export of 800,0001. to
America cease I—On the 2d,ot February 1811, then
it totally ceased ; until that period, the. export to
America was very casual; it 'we-uld-now and then

take place for three or six months,' and then cease
for three or six months ; but 'even under all those
restrictions and ditlicuHes, I conceive t hat
- ham goods were exported to the United States of

America to the extent of Poo,oooi.
What was the export in the year 1810, or up to
the same day in February tato, reckoning from Fe-.
bruary 1809 ?—The expo, t of -Birmingham goods
to the United States of America, in the year 1810;
ending the 2d of February 1811, I should consider,
if my recollection serves me right, and if the inter
course in the autumn of 1810 was open, which I
think it was, would amount_ to full that, 800,0001.
I know that there were immense exports in the au•
tumn of the year 1810, the proceeds of wh cit have
not Yet been received.
Then, your recolledion of the amount of the
exports depends upon the question, whether the
trade .was open in . the autumn of 'lBlO ?—lt
do s, at least to the extent of the trade ; re-
coiled goods being sent in the autumn of I 8 tit, but
whether the trade was open for the whole of the
autumn of the year 1810, I cannot recolleef. •
How could that question, as to the opening of
the trade, affed your recolledion of what you learn-
ed from your own and other merchants' attual ex-
ports am not aware how it can posslbly etfed
it at all, but I know tha export of'the merchants of
Birmingham originated in my personal knowledge
of their returns passing through my hands as a
banker, many of them keeping their accounts with
me as a banker ; and I have seen't he returns of many
of their competitors have cast up the returns,
and found them amount to the sum 1 have Men-
tioned.

Did you cist up those accounts for the year ending
in February, 1 8 1 1 never cast them up for any
parti6ufar year.

From w hat circumstance do you derive your
your knowledge of the adual export in, that year ?
The year ending the T.d of February 1811, I detive
my knOWledke of that export from my memory. I
recoiled very. well, in fact so lately as the 2d of Fe-
bruary, many merchants being disappointed that had
been sending out goods all the autumn of the year
1810, and had been, continues' to ship them in the
winter ; They were compelled to stop their goods
at Liverpool on the 2d Februgry, where II ey
now lie.

Did you cast up your books for the ,same
Owl, for the month of February 1810, the yetr pre-
ceding that really, never kept any regular jour-
nal of these events or of these calculations, they
were merely casual calculations that I made for triy
own sat;..sfattion, and for the satisfaction of my
house, and the interest I naturakly took in the con-
cerns of rig neighbours ; I never made any calcula-
tion with any idea or view of being examined be-
fore this House.

Did you make no caletiltion with a view to ascer-
taining whether and to what extent the exports hare
fallen never have ; I have seen that there
have been no exports since the 2d of Februaiy, 1811,
in'my own rersonal observation, a-d therefore it re-
quired no calculation : with resped to the -exports
to the Continent of Europ.., I have seen, them in
my personal observation.

Have not- you signed a Petition to this House,
slating, that the export trade to Atnerica has-been
nearly lost, or something to that etrea I—l believe
I li'ave; I .might,have said entirely last, forcertaioly
no )export to America has talvtir place since the
of February,llB 1 1.
Are not you one of the Delegates from the Pe--
titioners of Birmingham, to represent their case to
this House ?--4 am a Delegate to represent their
Case to this House, against The East India morx-J-
-poly I believe, that I have, since I came to Lon-
don, been appointed' a Delegate on the subject of
the Order in Council ; but I have not had time to
interest myself tnatertally in that iffair.
Then .you, .when you signed and promoted this pe-
tition, did not-t hitt k it necessary to cast up your -ac-
counts, and to examine the books in your possession
to see to what extent the trade had fallen off i
Oertainly not ; when
.1 sigriedthe petition, I was by
interested too (Mich in the East India question togive
much thought to the Orders in Council,- though 1
have long thought upon the question, and formed my
mind accordingly.

Is 11)e Committee to understand you as'speaking
rsnly from a loose and general recollettion of these
fOts ?--L- Altogether.

Do you state the exports n,pon that generA recol-
le6tion, to have been in. the year ending February
1810, greater or less than in the year ending Febru-
ary 1809 )--f really cannot recolle& ; ;cool-
led loosely that l'our or tivd.,yars- ago the eiporrs
io the United Sales of America were, as I believe,
as considerable as I have Stm-2.il -them, they were
likewise then uninterrupted ; but bitterly,' though
they. have been considerable, and as considerable as
I have represented, they have been to 'interrupted,
that they have been rather a loss than a gain to the
merchants who have exported.
Do you mean to state, then, that the -loss to the
manufatturerlias beenrat her from the irregularities
of the exports than the decline in its amount ?
Certainly, until the 2d of February, I s 1 t, from the
irregularity of the exports promoting all manner of
bankruptcies in the United States of America, and
all manner of tosser in England..
When you, speak of four or hve years ago the ex-
ports having been as, great. as, you have stated, do
yop mean to say that it was as great as 800,0001. )--
I do.

What way the' year or period when it ceased to
be of' that amonni ?—The 2d of Feb;i st. t

. When, before that period .rather think that
one or two of the three or four years before might
have been smaller, and probably one or two of the
years might have been larger; for 'there. was very
great irregularity in those years, as I have belore
ated..

[ADVERTISEMP.tiT.],— The ManniA6lurers who
have hitherto given., their" evidence at the liqr of
the Collitlitltee of the kio.sse of Commons, in sup-
port of the -Petitions •aglin,,t the Orders in Council,
have not willin?ly enteric:; inao the complex vies-
lion of these Orders. But knowing that lite SUS-
pelliiioo 0 the eornin4a* inio.cullrset Wltii the
tini!ed Status, is -he pyinciyal and icratned,ate cause of
the pressure in their trade, and having orders on hand
from the United States for British inanuta'clorLs, to
b. executeA.immOiate4' on the revocation of the
Orders inCouncil,to an extent whi'ch would effeouilly
lessen thegreat stock sllicy hale on hand, and set their
imufaCtories to work again -, they are constrainrd to
luck upon the Orders to Council as thet.great.pb-
siacle to their Nrel,ef. • This opinion rs corroborAcd'
by the confidence of the Aiderican Joiportets.,
the iinnyfdiale repeal of the ;Non-Irnportation Law,
so soon as the Orders shad be reuoked, of which'
.t hey have given. a decisive proof, by ordering their
goods to be shipped-,
.on that event tAnig ph ice,
without any reference io the Non-LnportatiOn
Low., It is not by political or party' views that the
manufa&urers havc been waved,' bp; their dist ress2s
have compelled them,. with great unwillingness, to
leave their respeotiVe concerns, ,for the purpose'of
representing to Parliatnent• their own situation,: that
of their x.otkaleta, Ando!' the other persons depend'
ant on their trade for support. In.troth, the evi-
dence arthe Bar discloses so much unavailing exer,
don on.the part of the Manufadurers,.and so ofilid-
Mg a detail of the sufferings, of the Wotktnen, that
all lesser regards must be absorbed to .a,,xiety to ob-
tain. relief tor them, from the wisdom of P:trliament.
