Mr. ANDREWS then called Mr. James as one of the bail.

The RECORDER asked if the prosecutor had any objection
to make to the gentleman who now appeared as bail
Mr. Dunn.—illy Lord, lam taken by surprise. It is to the
other person I object.
The RECORDER.—Do you object to thli gentleman?
Mr. Dunn. —I do not know. I have had no time to make
iaqu iries.
The RECORDER.—Then hold your tongue, Sir.
Mr. James was then rtceived as one of the bail, having de.
clared that he was worth 6001. after the payment of all his just
debts.'
.31r. Wilson, the other bail, was found incompetent to be-
come bail, and Mr. Harmer, the solicitor of Hatton-gardeu, be-
came bail in his stead.

ANOTIIER BARBAROUS MURDEFL.--Ennis, &pie:
10.-0 n the morning of Thursday, the 4th inst..
a young man, named Owen Coughlin, was barba-
rously and inhumanly murdered on the 1.
land of Boulnapuh. It appears that a decreed!
was obtained against the father of the deceased
thnt a mob of about 16 in number, collected.
under the pretence of executing the decree ; aucti-
on not fiuding the fathes of the deceased, whom,/
it appears, the decree was against, they attacked.
the deceased, and beat him so unmercifully that hew
languished until the following morning, when he.
died. The father of the deceased, on perceiving the
mob approach the house, secreted him!elf in some
rushes that were convenient to the house, which
enabled him to ascertain and identify the offend—
ers. There are two persons apprehended, an.d,
fully identified by the father and mother of the..
deceased as being principally concerned in this,
outrage.--(Dublin Patrioo

DEATH PROM HYDROPHOBIA. About ten
weeks ago, several rntd dogs infested the town of
Bolton-le-Moors and its vicinity, which did con-
sideralkle injury by biting several persons, and
likewise horses, cows, &c. A girl about 11 years,
of age, residing in Union-buildings, Bradshaw.
gate, was one of the individuals that had the
misfortune to be severely bitten by one of those
rabid unitnals. At that time the wounds were
extirpated, and the actual cautery applied.
—Notwithstanding which treatment, on Satur-
day last symptoms of hydrophobia appeared, and
she expired in severe convulsions on Monday,
being about ten weeks since the indiction of the
injury. So great was the pressure of people to
ascertain the particulars of the case, that consta-
bles were obliged to be stationed at the door to
keep off the crowd. The feelings of the poor
parents may he more; readily imagined than de-
scribed, n bile those of the populace have beets
manifested during the week in an indiscriminate
slaughter of every dog found at large in the
town and neighbourhood.---(Liverpool Mercurs,)
On Sunday morning a labouring man, named.
Thomas Fordham, about 70 years of age, was
found hanging in a barn, at the back of his owtx
cottage at Littlebury, near Saffron Walden. He
was immediately cut down, and medical aid
promptly resorted to, but he expired two hours
afterwards. The unfortunate man had long been
afflicted with mental derangement. He had,
from his earnings, contrived to amass so cons:der-
able a sum as 500/.

THE LONDON JOURNALS.

DAILY
Extract's from the Naming Papers, September 17.

[MORNING HERALD.)
We have received the Paris Papers of Sunday
last. They do not contain any intelligence of a
decisive_ nature. One account from Port St.
Mary states, that on the night of the 4th instant
the French, who are said to be filled with en-
thusiasm, began to throw bombs into Cadiz from
the extreme point of the Trocadero, and that se-
-veral buildings and stores were set on fire. This
is one way of reconciling the people of Spain to
the paternal solicitude with which the invaders
siai6ed their intention of coming to re-establish
tranquillity, order, and happiness, throughout
the Peninsula. It is possible that property, si-
tuated in the remote outlets of Cadiz, may he de-
stroyed by red-hot bulls ; but with respect to the
works by which the city itself is defended, they
cannot, from the distance at which they are
placed, make any impression upon them for some
length of time, provided the garrison is deter-
mined, to make a vigorous defence, and is sup.
plied with provisions -by sea.

. [HORNING CHRONICLE.]
The letters received yesterday by the Lisbon
Mail to the 21st ult. are'extremely barren so
great in fact is the terror, under which every
one now lives in Portugal, that all allusion to
politics is deemed a most heinous offence, and
punished as such, and therefore no one ventures
to commit his sentiments to paper, every suspected
letter being opened. A small part of the convoy.
which left Bahia in the beginning of July, has ar-
rived in the Tagus, having separated from the
rest. Among them is a Portuguese brig of war;
but Gen:Madeira had not arrived. Many of the
rich inhabitants.of Bahia, who deemed it prudent
to take their departure with the garrison, fearful
of any excesses on the part of the irregular troops,
by whom the city had been long invested, when
they Were no longer protected by a correspond-
ttig armed force, embarked, in these. vessels.
What number of them have been captured by
Lord Cochrane, who had followed the convoy
for several days, was not ascertaitied. It was
supposed, however, that, out of .80, which origi-
-Daily left Bahia, 'a considerable' portion must
have fallen into his hands,,so 'difficult is it to
keep a large convoy together, when all cannot
sail equally well. The accounts received frog
Brazils through this channel arc not so late us
those which had already come to hand direct,
and more are daily expected, as the packet
is doe. The frigate Amazon, a , brig of war,
and one transport had left Lisbon for Ma-
deira, with seven hundred troops on, board,
for the purpose of suppressing a revolution ready
to break out there, according to some letters,
and, according to others, with a view to.bring to
trial (that is, in the usual way when the Govern-
ment is the accuser and also the party aggrieved),
some of the most consPicuOus ,persons in the
island, charged with being Liberals and Free-
inuiions, and known also as having expressed
their strong disapprobation of recent events in
Portugal, and as besides entertaining the Idea
that no part of the Porttiguese. dominions can be
governed by any other. than definite laws, se-
curing the persons and
,property of the inhabit-
ants. In thk expedition were four desembar-
gadores, or
,judges, and an executioner, whop
with the new Governor, were intended to form
a-kind of Star Chamber, to try and execute every
one whose political opinions or mental acquire-
roonts shoeld be offensive or. dangerous to the
Government.

[TLIC TIMES.
-Since matters in the South of Spain have ap-
peared to be drawing _towards a crisis, the ru-
mour gains ground, that a new Congress is medi-
tated, where the military- despots of the Conti-
nent are to afford some further demonstration of
their zeal for the liberties of mankind. The. All-
gemeina Zeitung contains upon this subject a few
passages which we have inserted. The French
Buurbons having tied Spain to the stake, Rus-
sia. and Austria come forward to assist at the ex-
e.cution of the criminal. Prince 111etternich, who
is the officiating personage on these occasions,
brings in his pecket, we are told, not merely
such a scheme of government Ita the Holy Al-
liance " Shan think fit" to impose upon Spain
aiid Portugal, but a plan still wore extensive and
atrocious, for establishing the peace of Europe on
news foundations, consistent with the " rno-
tc
narchical principle," and with the system of
" legitimacy recognized by the Holy Alliance."
here, then, are .two distinct plots for overthrow-
ing the most sacred principles of political inde-
pendence—tirst, in Spain and Portugal ; next,
throughout Europe itself.; time former plainly me-
wing, the, latter directly involving, the funda-
mental rialits and nat)onal existence of Great
Britain. Suppose, now, the crime against the Pe-
ninsula to bra consummated, is it ',visible to believe
that if the Holy Alliance are strong enough, they
will not turn this doctrine against the British
Coustitutioit ? What reason for quarrelling with
Spain does not apply with tenfold force against
the continuance of English liberty, and against
th 4 principles of our revolution? The Constitu-
tion of England is an example to mankind of far
higher authority—its origin is an encouragement
infinitely more attractive--a rebuke to the" um-
narchical principle," beyond all comparison more
cutting and intolerable, than the young and
doubtful attempts at freedom in Italy, Portugal,
or 'Spain. Mr. Canning knows, for he has de-
elai•ed, that this iniquitous war bears directly
against the foundations of our independence.—
Has he seen any thing in .fie conduct or gratitude
01 the Holy Alliance, indicative of a reluctance
to carry their own theories into action ?

[NEW TIMES.]

The information received from Paris to Sun-
day evening contahrs of course no fresh, quotation
of the French Funds; but we learn from it, that
advices had been received from Port St. Mary to
the Bth instant, at which period the batteries
erected by the French on the south-western ex-

tremity of the Tiocadero had' already opened
their fire, and, by the discharge of red-hot shot,
had prodnced_ an extensive conflagration on the
side of the- Puntales. The preparations r for
a general attack were carrying forward with
great activity, and the presence of .their Prince
had animated the French soldiers to an ex-
treme degree of enthusiasm; while, on the
other hand, it, is well known that within
the walls of Cadiz, reigned the utmost confusion.
—The Bayonne accounts are, as usual, replete
with false and insidious statements to the pre-
judice both of the French and Spanish Govern-
ments. It is remarkable that, from the corn-
-mericement of the war to this hour, the Bayonne
Papers have -not contained a syllable of troll.—
Every fact they have asserted has been itgularly
disproved ; and yet they go' on inventing_: new
falsehoods with .the same systematic coolness as
ever. Their present tale is as destitute of proba-
bility as any they ever, fabricated. "The Re-
gency," they say, " in a Secret Council, sitting as
a Chamber of Justice, has condemned forty De-
puties to capital punishment, and fifty others to
perpetual banishment." How came these liberal
writers to lie made confidants of the Secret Coun-
cils of the_Regency ? How came the Regency to
sit as a Charnber
.of Justice ? Why should they
condemn to death or banishment persons not in
their power, and who cannot come into their
power until the King is at liberty, whq,may either
pardon or prosecute them, as he may see best ?
When King Ferdinand is restored to liberty, he
. will of course punish with some exceptions ; and
it.is inconceivable that the Regency should pre-
tend to limit the Royal judgment, hi this particu-
by a sentence of their own. Gross, however, j
as is this fiction, it is not more so than that of
the " three thousand Constitutional troops," who,
these Bayonne gentry assert, ," have marched
from Coria towards the banks of the Guadal-
quiver."
