(FURTHER DELAY.)

Mr. BODKIN addressed the Common Sergeant in the matter
of Joseph Young, who stands charged with stealing from the
person of Tames Carr.

This person had been tried, and hemeant to plead his former
conviction, and put a record of that conviction in. Applica-
tion had been made at Clerkenwell for such record, and the
clerks there had refused ; hence he (Mr. Bodkin) wished the
case to stand over. He said, he apprehended that the clerks
of the county Magistrates were not warranted in withholding
the required document—whether it was erroneous or correct.
The Judge (Mr. MIREHOUSE) thought that it would be
better for the Learned Advocate to proceed to Clerkenwell
and make his motion there in regard to the record. Until
such application had been made the trial should stand over.

The Sheriffs of course regret this delay, but for which
the Session would have terminated by one o'clock, and enabled
them to have proceeded to the City election, where their
presence is necessary.

In the course of the morning Mr. Bodkin made the applica.
tion to the County Magistrates, and restated the case.
The Chairman and the majority of the Magistrates were of
opinion that the application could not be complied with, be-
cause if the session had lapsed on the 2cl of July the Court
could not put any thing on the record which transpired after
the session was declared to be null and void.— Application
refused.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The intelligence received this morning from Portugal is not
of so favourable a complexion as was anticipated. The
Corsair yatch has arrived at Falmouth, bringing accounts from
Lisbon of the Ist of August, and from Oporto of the sth, by
which it appears that General Molellos still holds out, and has
tak6l up a position in the environs of Santarem, which is a
populous town on the Tagus, about 55 miles to the north east of
Lisbon, it was the head.quarters of a numerous French army,
who in 1811, were compelled to retreat into Spain. It is stated
that negotiations were going on between Molellos and the
regency.

Eight thousand men had been raised at Lisbon to strengthen
Don Pedro's army.
The Duke of Cadaval with 3,000 men was at Alcobaca on
the 31st ult., on the road to Luceria, having previously sacked
the village of Caldas for four hours.
Bourmont was still before Oporto, it is said, with an army of
23,000 men, and report says that he was going to make another
attack upon that city. Incessant firing was still kept up upon
that town.

It is now evident by the above information that Don Miguel
will hold out to the last extremity, and if Villa Flor does not
with a strong force get in his rear, or land troops to outflank
him, Marshal Bourmont will be able to hold out for some time
to come. All now depends on the energy of the people of Lis-
bon, and their assistance must be forthcoming without delay.

By the French mail this morning it appears, that the Mar-
quis Loule has arrived at Paris, and had a private audience of
the King, after which he paid a visit to the different Ministers.
A report prevailed that the King of Spain has again been
attacked by the gout, and fear was entertained of its getting to
the stomach.

A letter from Madrid says, that Don Miguel and Don
Carlos, will probably proceed to Vigo, and embark on board the
Spanish vessel Saberano there, which has received orders to
convey them to Italy.

Accounts from Baden state, that the King of Wirtemberg
suddenly left that city, owing to the events in Switzerland,
which has caused great sensation is. Germany.
