111IDDIAESEX SESSIONS, Nov. 11.

This day the sessions were held pursuant to adjournment,
to dispose of the cases which had been traversed at the last
sessions.

William Danger was indicted for assaulting William Ha.
zard. The parties were mere lads. -
The prosecutor stated, that he was one evening, at the end of
October, proceeding very quietly along Brill-row, when he re-
ceived a blow on the right side of thehead. He turned round.
to look for his assailant, but the latter, us if aware of his in-
tention, cunningly hit him in tho left eye with such force and
precision, that the blow at once closed up that necessary organ,
and lodged its possessor in the kennel, to the serious detriment
of a new suit of clothes which lie had on. The prosecutor,
however, had still one eye left, which enabled him to discover
that it was the prisoner who used him so roughly.
The prisoner, when called on for his defence, proceeded to
tell his story. On the night in question he saw the prose.

asking the prosecutor what business he hail with the

something to him ;" whereupon the prosecutor inquired con.
temptuously " How he could help himself?" Frotn worth

*IYACUATION OF SPAIN BY THE FRENCH ARMY.
( From the Etoile.)

The French were to leave Spain on the Ist of
lest July. His Catholic Majesty, however,
could, if he deemed it necessary, call for the
polongation of the stay of our army. He judged
this would be useful, to enable him to complete

the organization of his army, and a new conven-
tion, which fixed the period for evacuating Spain
for the Ist of January, 1825, was concluded on
the 30th of last July, between the two countries.
t is this convention which is about to be exe-
cuted, and which has for some days occupied the
attention of all our Journals. They have till
now contented themselves with presenting to

their readers the evacuation of Spain as a piece o

news which they hastened to communicate. But
this day, two Journals, which call 411emselves
the organs of the opposition, take occasion, from

the simple execution of a treaty, to attack two
Governments—those of France and Spain, and to

paint in colours the most gloomy acid alarming
_ .

the future state of the Peninsula.

One of them, the Journal des Mba4, inquires
What pledges the present state of Spain
offers for the seaurity of the Spanish► Royal Fa-
mily ? What resources, what military means,
do we leave in the hands of King Ferdinand, to
consolidate and defend hi* au►hority ?"

COUNTY OF SURREY.

Mn. EDlTOR—Accidentally casting my eyes
upon your Newspaper, I saw a story in it about
a ballad, a book, a church-yard, and I know not
what else ; for, though driving evidently at some
object, 1 could not discover exactly what it was.
But the parish of Ewell, in this county, was men-
tioned. Now, Mr. Editor, on behalf of our
Rector, our Churchwardens, and Parishioners, I
do deny that any bodies have been removed and
broken up by their order; neither vault nor
grave has been disturbed for any repairs or alter-
ations, and, should at any time our church re-
quire to be enlarged, if the sacred remains of de-
parted Parishioners must be removed for the pur-
pose, we shall do it under L[ A Faculty" pro-
perly obtained, and not render ourselves liable to
any legal process against us.
I must beg tliotniANus to find out some other

the remains of the subjects of his mysterious
communications. For his information there is a
place called Stockwell, some where near London,

the road to Peckham, not far from the Church. I
